The Manchester Board of School Committee has appointed a new superintendent of schools, Dr. Bolgen Vargas, the past superintendent of the Rochester, New York, school system, a district with over 30,000 students — double the size of Manchester. Dr. Vargas will replace Dr. Debra Livingston, who recently retired.

Dr. Vargas sure looks like he has the credentials to lead Manchester, our state’s largest school district. While Rochester has twice the student population of Manchester, it also has a budget four times as large. When Dr. Vargas took on the Rochester position, the system had a $70 million budget gap that he seems to have successfully solved. Wow! If he solved a nearly 10-percent budget gap in Rochester, it sure sounds like he has the skills to take on the financial issues of Manchester.

While this speaks volumes of his financial skills and is a good hint at why the Board of School Committee has placed their faith in Dr. Vargas, there is a caution flag that is worthy of note. Dr. Vargas seems to have had a conflict with the school board that led to his leaving the post before his contract was completed.

We know all too well of the conflicts that recent superintendents have had with the Board of School Committee. Will we see the same kinds of conflicts that we’ve seen in the past? Are we to assume that this is simply a natural cats-versus-dogs type of relationship and that these kinds of conflicts are always going to arise?

Does it have to be this way? Is one side always wrong and the other side always right? That is unlikely. However, the history here is that this relationship has been problematic and one that is worth paying attention to.

It seems like the Board of School Committee has hired a very skilled leader. Certainly, there will be a honeymoon period. But after that, will the same kinds of conflicts arise, leaving all of us to think, “Here we go again?” For the sake of the city, especially the students, let’s hope that things go well. If they do, it should be considered a feather in the cap of both Dr. Vargas and the Board of School Committee.

NEWS & NOTES Race tightens

A new WBUR/MassInc poll shows Hillary Clinton is leading Donald Trump in the Granite State by just 3 points. Clinton has 41 percent of likely voters compared to Trump’s 38 and Libertarian candidate Gary Johnson has 11 points.

The poll’s margin of error is 4.4 percentage points. In the last WBUR poll conducted in late September, Clinton led by 7 points. Both candidates are still relatively unpopular.

Of the state’s likely voters, 40 percent view Clinton favorably, while 34 view Trump favorably.

The growing tightness of the race may explain the frequency of visits by candidates and their surrogates to the Granite State. On Oct. 13, first lady Michelle Obama gave a speech in Manchester that largely focused on Trump’s 2005 comments recorded by a hot mike on an Access Hollywood set, when he bragged about attempting to have an affair and kissing and groping women without consent or consequence. “I can’t stop thinking about this. It has shaken me to my core in a way that I couldn’t have predicted,” Obama said in her speech.

The Union Leader reported a recent UMass-Lowell poll found that more than 80 percent of Granite Staters heard about the 2005 comments, but 66 percent said it made no difference to how they would vote, while 30 percent said they were less likely to vote for Trump as a result of the recording.

Trump returned to New Hampshire Oct. 15 for an outdoor rally in Portsmouth. Seacoast Online reported protesters lined the Route 1 corridor leading to the rally and shouts were often exchanged between the groups as Trump supporters arrived.

On Oct. 17, former President Bill Clinton campaigned for his wife at Keene State College and Dartmouth College, NHPR reported. His last visit to the state was in January.

Dartmouth contract

The New Hampshire GOP plans to file an ethics complaint against the state for possible collusion with Dartmouth-Hitchcock and Dartmouth College to craft a Request for Proposal for a psychiatric staffing contract at the state mental hospital that would favor Dartmouth-Hitchcock, which was the sole bidder.

The Union Leader reported GOP Chair Jennifer Horn is accusing Gov. Maggie Hassan of a “pay to play” scandal that gave preferential treatment to a campaign donor. The complaint, which will be filed with the Executive Branch Ethics Committee, is based on email exchanges the GOP received as part of a Right to Know request. The emails show New Hampshire Hospital Chief Medical Officer David Folks circulating suggested tweaks to the draft RFP language with state employees heading the hospital. Folks recently announced his planned departure for January. A former psychiatric nurse practitioner at New Hampshire Hospital said Folks was talking about a “seamless transition” long before the RFP had been issued, saying that pointed to a conflict of interest, if not collusion.

Gateway to work

A program meant to fund job training using unspent federal welfare dollars is still being stalled by Republican lawmakers. NHPR reported the Gateway to Work program, championed by Gov. Maggie Hassan as a way to work toward closing the state’s workforce skills gap, was tabled again by the Joint Fiscal Committee. Democrats argue it will help provide more economic opportunity to needy families, while Republicans, some of whom are not against the plan in principle, expressed concerns about the long-term costs. The program is estimated to spend $15 to $20 million in federal funds and would target individuals receiving Temporary Assistance for Needy Families.

Moose checks

The relative success of hunters this moose season and the shape those moose are found in will have an impact on the future of the hunt.

The Union Leader reported that check stations examining moose brought in by hunters with a moose permit this year are seeing fewer moose than usual. And populations are getting close to the thresholds set

by Fish and Game that would trigger a halt to hunting. That’s especially true of the central and southwest regions of the state. Each region has its own population goals set by Fish and Game’s 10-year management plan, released last year. Calf mortality has been high in recent years,

hovering between 70 and 80 percent over the past three years. The deaths have been connected mostly to short winters, friendly to the winter tick lifecycle. The ticks then infest moose in high numbers, causing massive blood loss, anemia and other health problems.

Veterans in pain

While a 2011 policy directive prevents veterans from being kicked from the Veteran Administration’s medical system for using state-sanctioned medical marijuana, there are still barriers for Granite State vets to access the program.

The Concord Monitor reported the New Hampshire therapeutic cannabis law requires a medical marijuana patient have a three-year relationship with a physician before the physician can certify them as a qualifying patient. But VA doctors are not allowed to certify medical marijuana use. That means veterans getting care through the VA system must pay out-of-pocket to see a provider outside of the VA system.

Scam unit

The New Hampshire Attorney General’s office has created a new unit to handle scams targeting the elderly, the Union Leader reported. Brandon Garod, the prosecuting attorney for the Elder Abuse and Exploitation Unit, said many police see elder scams not as a crime but as a civil matter. In 2015, elder fraud cost $36.48 billion nationwide, according to a study by TrueLink Financial. The first person in the state is being charged using a new state law making financial exploitation of the elderly a felony. If

STEAM CUSTOMERS

The Auburn school board has put off plans to withdraw from SAU 15, the school administrative unit it shares with Candia and Hooksett. The Union Leader reported a study committee looking into withdrawal decided it was not the right time to recommend it because of other priorities, but will likely revisit it later.

Due to an additional $2 million Derry in city pension obligations in Nashua, Mayor Jim Donchess asked the school district to Londonderry flatten costs in the upcoming budget proposals. The Telegraph of Nashua reported Sandra Ziehm, the president of NASHUA the board of education, called the request a “nightmare” and said it amounts to continued cuts to the district.

Energy and natural gas supplier Liberty Utilities agreed to pay $1 million to help with the transition from Concord Steam to Liberty services in downtown Concord. The Concord Monitor reported the fund would be used to help non-government customers of Concord Steam. A joint petition to the Public Utilities Commission pushed for the fund and the PUC will consider it when it reviews the plans for Concord Steam to close by May 2017. The petition was drafted by state Sen. Dan Feltes, a Democrat from Concord. It was backed by 13 downtown businesses and nonprofits and Concord City Manager Tom Aspell. Liberty Utilities would be allowed to recoup the $1 million from ratepayers.

TASKER PROSECUTION

The team working to prosecute former State Rep. Kyle Tasker for allegedly soliciting a minor for sex over Facebook and dealing drugs hit a bump in the road last week. The Union Leader reported Detective Christopher Gilroy of the Hampton Police Department was arrested for alleged drunk driving.

Working as a member of the state’s Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force, Gilroy was on the other side of a Facebook conversation with Tasker, posing as a 14-year-old girl.

Legal experts now say Gilroy’s arrest could have an impact on Tasker’s prosecution, especially if Gilroy is called to be a witness, as it can be used to challenge his credibility.

In the weeks leading up to the general election, the Hippo is speaking with the major party nominees for the state’s gubernatorial and congressional races about the issues — and how they take their coffee. The interviews here have been edited and condensed, but you can find longer versions of each week’s interview transcripts at hippopress.com.

Frank Guinta Republican CD1 nominee Frank Guinta is the incumbent Republican Congressman for the state’s 1st District, serving his second, non-consecutive term, and a former mayor of Manchester. He served a previous term in the House after first being elected in 2010.

What accomplishments can you point to that have helped the people of New Hampshire?

Well, I served on the Financial Services Committee and I was added to the Budget Committee this year and I … served as the chairman of the Congressional Task Force to Combat Heroin and Opioid Use. I spent most of my time this year focusing on the opioid … epidemic here in New Hampshire and around the country. And I really think that the work

Carol Shea-Porter Democratic CD1 nominee Carol Shea-Porter is a former Congresswoman for the state’s 1st District. She served two consecutive terms after being elected in 2006 and lost to Republican Frank Guinta in 2010. She was elected for a third term in 2012 before losing to Guinta again in 2014.

What accomplishments can you point to that have helped the people of New Hampshire from your time in Congress?

The most recent ... is the Medicaid expansion money that New Hampshire accepted.

And I’m very proud of the state legislature for voting yes on that. But that money did come from the [Affordable Care Act]. ... We know that the first roll was insuring … almost 50,000 people and now the Medicaid expansion takes care of those who were poor, who didn’t have the money to do that. … I was there when the economy was collapsing. I’m very proud of the work that we did to keep this country from falling into a depression, frankly. And if you look at the jobs, every single month we have job gains.

HIPPO | OCTOBER 20 - 26, 2016 | PAGE 6

that I did on the task force as chairman was incredibly important to the process of passing the CARA [Comprehensive Addiction and Recovery Act] legislation. I thought it was important, after being named chairman, to work in a bipartisan way. So I talked to my leadership and said that I wanted to have a cochair who was a Democrat and they thought it was a good idea and I called Annie Kuster.

And I asked her to be my co-chair and she accepted and we worked really well together over the last year. We’ve got 80 members of Congress on the task force, equally divided between Republicans and Democrats. I think it was important for us, for me at least, to send a strong message that we need to work together in a bipartisan way to try to solve the challenges that the state and the nation are facing. The bipartisan legislation that came out of it after 10 hearings, both in New Hampshire and Washington, D.C., I think the legislature was incredibly important. We had 18 different bills, all of which passed the House bipartisanly. … I think that’s probably the most impactful legislative accomplishment that I’ve had this year.

If re-elected, what specific initiatives would you pursue?

I think it’s incredibly important to deal with budget reform, so we have a better budget process and tax reform. I think our economy is still lagging, despite the fact that we have low unemployment. We had a labor participation rate at 62.8 percent, which is a 50-year low. So we … [have] to get the economy jump-started, and that means overall tax reform, both on the individual side and the business side. So, I think that’s … amongst the most important things that we need to start out of the gate next year.

How would you ensure New Hampshire has the resources to meet the needs of our severely mentally ill who are waiting for beds?

This is an issue that’s near and dear to me.

I’ve got a family member who has a mental health diagnosis and I’ve been caregiver to that family member for 20 years, which has impacted our family in a way that has allowed me to see through the lens of what it’s truly like to go through the mental health process. I mean, New Hampshire, we used to be one of the best states in the country for our delivery system, and unfortunately we’re falling short.

I see how people with mental health diagnosis are not treated properly or fairly and not

least of which are rent and childcare. Those things affect people in the low income brackets the most. What would you do to help the working families of the state pay their bills?

I think we need to change our tax code.

What’s happening here is that the middle class has been absolutely squeezed, and so have Main Street’s small businesses. And we know that our tax code is unfair and that if you are a very wealthy corporation or a billionaire you’re going to have some pretty great advantages, taxwise. … I think for early education, we need to put money there so that the young families that are born and live in a certain zip code aren’t being penalized because they’re not in a wealthy community. But we also need to help those families get childcare. Childcare has to be more affordable.

And we’re talking about some investments here. … We need to raise the minimum wage, everybody pretty much agrees. And there are studies that show that it actually does not hurt if it’s done gradually and [with] awareness for the very small businesses that can’t take that leap. ... And then we need, as a community — it’s a series of tax credits and tax structure — to help, when they want to build workforce housing, to make it worthwhile for businesses to come in and do that. It has to be a partnership between business, nonprofThe cost of living in New Hampshire its and government in order to address the is very high, driven by a lot of factors, not problems we’re facing. And finally, I would How would you ensure New Hampshire has the resources to build up its mental health and addiction treatment, given the waitlists and high demand?

I was the vice chair of the addiction caucus with Patrick Kennedy (D-Rhode Island) and I also worked with him on the mental health parity legislation to make sure that insurance companies offered mental health benefits that needed to be the same. This was a few years ago. So it’s disappointing to see that we don’t have these resources. … I mean, when I was in Congress in my last session, I was working on legislation to try to bring funding and try to make it easier to safely dispose of drugs. I was speaking to the head of the New Hampshire Police about this and so it’s not a new problem. We have failed to address the problem and we have reached the emergency moment here. So my great hope is that everybody will work across the aisle to provide the services and to acknowledge that we’re in it for the long haul. It can’t just be today’s hot topic. We have to be in it for the long haul. That means beds, that means long-term treatment, that means helping to stabilize individuals and families and make sure that they have jobs when they come out.

It’s going to be a lot.

getting the treatment they deserve. So one of the most important pieces of legislation on the federal level is a bill that I co-sponsored with Tim Murphy (R-Ohio) called the … Mental Health Families in Crisis Act. And it does a number of things but reforms and improves the mental health system including ensuring that if you are in crisis, that families can assist with that individual and the medical team.

The cost of living is high in New Hampshire, and experts say it’s driven largely by high rent and high childcare costs, which affects the folks at the lowest incomes the hardest. How would you help the working people of New Hampshire to pay their bills?

At the federal level, I want to see upward mobility for everybody regardless of their socioeconomic status. So when it comes to those who are having challenges paying their bills, there are a number of things that we should be reforming at the federal level. One of the biggest frustrations I have is the number of job training programs we have spread out over so many different agencies [that] don’t seem to be applied in the most effective and efficient way. So I’d like to reform that process and determine, if somebody is unemployed, match them up with the job training dollars that we have at the federal level so we can work with that person in a proper training 7

say if we want to keep young people here and we want good wages and we want them to be able to hold their costs down, we need public transportation.

How do you plan on being an effective Democratic lawmaker if the Republicans keep control of the House?

Well, I have been an effective lawmaker in the majority and also in the minority. And the reason I’ve been able to get things done is because I have served on the Armed Services Committee. The House Armed Services Committee is — I mean, they have their partisan moments, but we all understand that the first obligation of your government is to keep you safe. And so we’ve worked pretty well together and I have reached across the aisle repeatedly. I have supported many of their amendments, they have supported mine. …

My mom and dad were lifelong Republicans.

I decided … that I would try to walk back and forth to votes with a Republican, so that we would have chances to talk, because you don’t have that much opportunity. You really don’t. So that’s what I did. I walked back and forth. And you build a rapport, friendship, and we may not always vote the same, but there was an understanding there. And it did help and I did work with Justin Amash (R-Michigan), who’s pretty darn conservative, on issues of privacy. And I worked with oth- 7

6 ers too. So, if you decide you’re going to do it and you’re not rude to them, you can get some things done.

The Affordable Care Act has been facing some renewed criticism, even from major Democrats like Bill Clinton, because of rising premiums for middle-class Americans.

As a vocal supporter of Obamacare, how would you respond to these criticisms?

We always said ... we’re pushing the train out of the stations and there will be many stops along the way, that this would require a lot of tweaking as this went through, as any major piece of legislation would. And, unfortunately, the Republicans in Washington, who are not listening to the Republicans who are enrolled in health care and know how it’s changed their lives ... refuse to fix anything.

They actually have voted to repeal it without anything to replace it. They voted to repeal it, I don’t know, almost 70 times now. So, it does need work, absolutely. It’s the equivalent of buying a brand new car and saying ‘I will never take this car for a tune-up, I will never let it have an oil change, I’ll never change a tire, I’ll never do anything.’ And that’s been their approach, to try to keep anything from being tweaked or fixed. … We have to fix it and it’s going to require people who are interested in the public good and interested in protecting people’s access to health care.

Regardless of whether it was a ruling or settlement, if you were told to pay it back, do you think that’s keeping with the spirit of the law, having it now?

Well, I’ve always said that it’s my money.

It was my money. It is my money.

You beat your primary opponent despite many national pundits predicting your demise. What message do you think your primary victory sends?

Well, I’ve always said this isn’t about me.

This is about representing the people of the 1st Congressional District, and that’s what I’ve done. And I think that we ran a good campaign. It was a spirited campaign and I congratulated my opponent in the primary for running a tough campaign, but the people spoke. And now I think what the people want is the leadership and the focus and the dedication that I’ve demonstrated on issues that matter to people in the 1st Congressional District. I’ve gotten six pieces of legislation signed into law by this president, shepherded through the CARA legislation, was a leader on the deferral of the Cadillac Tax — something that would have negatively impacted Manchester by $5 million. ... I think people appreciate the focus and attention and the Is there concern in your campaign or in the party that your former Democratic primary opponent, Shawn O’Connor — who is running now as an independent — will in any way split the Democratic vote this year?

I think he will probably pick up a lot of Frank Guinta’s votes because there’s Libertarians on the ticket as well. … There’s two independents and a Libertarian, so I think we’re fine. … In New Hampshire, we have a Libertarian streak, so when people are looking at Republican, Democrat, the third thing that comes to mind is Libertarian.

What are the biggest differences between you and your opponent?

Well, I think Frank Guinta has been very, very good for multinational corporations, he’s been very, very good for oil and gas, he’s been very good for the Koch brothers, he’s been very good for Washington special interests. And people can go and have a look, but that’s a pretty important difference, that I have been there from the very beginning for the middle class, what I call the bottom 99 percent of us. So our votes reflect that difference. That’s one difference. The other difference is integrity. You just have to take a look; the current head of the New Hampshire Republican Party said that she looked at his full FEC report and doesn’t trust him.

The former head of the New Hampshire

passion that I have for representing others.

And I never take these elections for granted. I’m looking to earn people’s support for the general election, but I think that what I’ve demonstrated is what people want from their representatives in Washington.

What are the biggest differences between you and Carol Shea-Porter that you think give you an advantage in this race?

Results. When she served, she served with a majority of Democrats in the House and Senate and the White House and she could not get anything accomplished on behalf of the state of New Hampshire. I’ve served in divided government and I’ve been able to get six pieces of law, legislation signed into law by this president in this term alone. As chairman of the Task Force to Combat Heroin and Opioid Use, I’ve led on the most important and most impactful issue on the people of the state of New Hampshire. And we had more than 400 people die last year of a drug-related overdose and we’re on track, unfortunately, to meet or exceed that number. So I think the differences really are results. Representing people is supposed to be about getting things done and I’ve been able to work alongside Republicans and Democrats to make those accomplishments.

How do you order your coffee at the drive-thru?

— Ryan Lessard GOP has filed new charges against him.

Senator Kelly Ayotte said he should resign, all the newspapers said he should resign, the head of the New Hampshire Senate — now I’m talking all Republicans now — the head of the New Hampshire Senate and the head of the New Hampshire House said that he should resign. There’s a question of integrity there. And so I bring the values of New Hampshire’s hard work, effectiveness in Congress, but also integrity to this, and that is a major difference. He says he made a “mistake,” right? But it was not a mistake to run ads. He knew it wasn’t a mistake, obviously. He was already trying to negotiate with the Federal Election Commission when he ran that ad against me at the end of 2014. So he knew that he was already in trouble. And then he ran an ad that I was lying about it. So that was sort of like another layer of dishonesty on top of that.

And then when newspapers asked him and his constituents asked him, he denied it. So they know and he knows that he let them down.

How do you order your coffee at the drive-thru?

Hot with cream, no sugar. … Always large. Got to have hot coffee, and as much of it as I can.

Well, it’s not a ruling. This is a settlement agreement between myself and the FEC. …

I think it’s sort of a mistake that people tend to make. But there was no ruling. They had contacted me after the last election and asked me to settle, and I settled. And the settlement was rather simple. It was, “pay back the account, refile your paperwork to show this money was yours and pay a small fine for not properly disclosing it in the first place.”

I’ve done that, the FEC has stated that I’m in compliance with that agreement, and I have, as I continue to do, focused on what I think

are the policy issues the people have always wanted me to focus on. I’ve done that the entire term and I did that during the primary campaign and I’ll continue to do that during the general election campaign.

There were more bank robberies in the state last year than at any time in the past decade, according to FBI crime statistics released this fall. Half of all bank robberies in New Hampshire happened in Manchester.

Out of a total of 36 bank robberies in 2015, 18 were committed in the Queen City, seven in Nashua and two in Concord. The remaining nine happened in nine different communities, including Bedford, Salem and Keene.

Since 2005, the annual total of bank robbery cases have hovered between 17 and 33, but between 2012 and 2015, incidents increased each year by more than 70 percent over that three-year period.

This is despite the fact that overall robberies — in additional places like highways, gas stations, homes, chains stores and businesses like liquor stores and restaurants — have gone down in New Hampshire by 14 percent and New England by 10 percent. And while robberies have gone up slightly nationwide, bank robberies have declined in the U.S. by 2.5 percent.

This appears to make New Hampshire the exception to the rule, and the widespread addiction epidemic centered on dangerous opioids like heroin and fentanyl is the likely culprit.

“There is no question those under the influence of a controlled or illegal drug is correlated with robberies,” Christiana Thornton, the president and CEO of the New Hampshire Bankers Association, wrote in an email.

Thornton pointed to a 2014 FBI study that found 40 percent of all bank robbers were

identified as narcotics users.

In Manchester, crime analysts don’t have a solid percentage of how many were committed by individuals motivated by drug addiction.

But anecdotally, it’s well over 50 percent.

“My experience here in Manchester has been that the vast majority of the people that we have robbing banks are doing so to feed addictions,” said Capt. Ryan Grant, the head of the Manchester Police Investigative Division. “It’s hard to quantify it because we don’t always have hard and fast information.”

Manchester saw a slight decrease in robberies between 2014 and 2015 from 109 to 103.

More than 17 percent of the city’s robberies were in banks. Besides the high concentration of drug activity in the Queen City, its urban characteristics may also be playing a role.

According to the 2014 FBI study, about 2,500 of nearly 4,000 bank holdups took place in commercial districts and the vast majority happen in metropolitan areas or small cities.

Thornton said the banking community continues to follow the industry’s best practices to deal with robberies, which include employee training, keeping cash box levels low and engaging with customers in the lobby.

“Banks continue to search for new ways to prevent robberies. However, their best strategy is still to make sure employees are trained and security systems are in place and working properly,” Thornton said.

While last year saw a record high after three years of consecutive increases, there may be signs of the issue plateauing. Grant said there have been fewer banker robberies in Manchester to date this year than the city saw in 2015.

“So it looks like our numbers are going to be down a bit for this year,” Grant said.

NEWS & NOTES

QUALITY OF LIFE INDEX Downtown statues installed

As part of the downtown Concord redesign, the first of two new statues has been placed along South Main Street. The Concord Monitor reported the statue of a boy holding a turtle was created by artist Beverly Benson Seamans of Marblehead, Massachusetts. The artist has since died, but her son and grandson were present for the installation.

It’s located in front of Live Juice, and the city has leased it for one year.

The second statue selected by city councilors is a granite gate created by Murray Dewart of Brookline, Massachusetts. It’s expected to be installed by early November near The Works Bakery Cafe.

QOL Score: +1 Comment: The Main Street redesign has plans for 11 sculptures.

Parkland Medical Center in Derry plans to open an Outpatient Adult Partial Hospitalization Program for behavioral health. The Union Leader reported the new hospital program will help patients deal with anxiety and other mental health problems. Parkland will be hosting an open house for the program on Oct. 20 from 5 to 7 p.m. at its Birch Street location. It will have capacity for up to 12 patients and its program based on teaching coping mechanisms is covered by most insurances.

Cancer events raise funds

In Concord, about 4,500 people participated in the Oct. 16 Making Strides Against Breast Cancer event, organized by the American Cancer Society. More than $476,000 was raised so far this year, and since 1993 the ACS has raised $7.5 million in Concord alone. The night before in Nashua, about 400 people holding red, gold and white lanterns and walking along Concord Street raised money for cancer research through the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society’s Light the Night Walk. The Telegraph of Nashua reported LLS has raised about $1.7 million between New Hampshire, Maine and Massachusetts over the course of one year. This is the 14th year the walk has been held in Nashua.

QOL Score: +1 Comment: Red lanterns signify patient support and finding a cure, white lanterns are held by cancer survivors and gold lanterns symbolize the loss of a loved one to cancer.

Norovirus warning

The New Hampshire Department of Health and Human Services shared a Public Health Advisory and Recall Notice from the Massachusetts health department regarding a suspected norovirus outbreak on Cape Cod that is believed to have originated from certain shellfish harvested there. The New Hampshire health department learned some of that shellfish had been distributed in the Granite State. Officials say residents should return any oysters, hard-shell clams, soft-shell clams, mussels and razor clams harvested from that area purchased on or after Sept. 26. Anyone who suspects they are experiencing the symptoms of norovirus should contact their healthcare provider immediately.

QOL Score: -1 Comment: Symptoms of norovirus include vomiting, diarrhea, abdominal cramps and additional symptoms may include headaches, fever, chills or muscle aches.

In the summer before one of my junior years in college I somehow got hooked on the ABC soap opera All My Children. I brought the affliction back to Plymouth with me in the fall and like the flu it infected everyone in the house I was living in. So come 1 p.m. each day all eight of us were usually jammed in front of the TV to make sure we didn’t miss a thing.

After a rehab stint I got off the couch and back into living a productive life again. But 12 years later I had a relapse when I was home sick and turned it on to discover that I hadn’t missed anything other than that Erica Kane was now on her 19th marriage. Same characters, same plot lines and half the people who died when I was watching had magically come back to life or were the now long-lost identical twin of the deceased.

I bring this up because it reminds of college football, where if you ain’t been paying attention for a few years, don’t worry, everything is still the same as Alabama and Ohio State are undefeated and still at the top of the polls — something I expect to be the case until Nick Saban and Urban Meyer get sick of doing it. Though with the resources he now has at Michigan Jim Harbaugh will soon make a Big 3 at the top and then everyone else with teams like Clemson moving in for a while and then dropping back in a few years to be replaced by another flavor of the month.

So with the season in full bloom, here are a few more thoughts on the college game that all too often gets neglected in this space since Chip Kelly headed to the NFL. Speaking of which, granted it’s a little early in his tenure in San Francisco, but with it not starting all that well and now in the hands of (gulp) Colin Kaepernick, I wonder if offense-challenged LSU is casting its eyes toward Chipper to fill its opening for head football coach?

Of course Chip could just come home to

try and bring BC out of the ashes. Boy, moving to the ACC really turned to be a brilliant move for them.

College Football 101: Two schools have produced a most-ever three different Super Bowl-winning quarterbacks. Name the schools and their QBs. Speaking of locals: Tough start for ex-Trinity QB Dan Mullen, who after Saturday’s loss to BYU is 2-4 at Mississippi State. And it won’t get any better anytime soon as they close the year by facing sixth-ranked Texas A&M, followed by top-ranked Bama, Arkansas (17) and Mississippi (22).

OK, I’ve got something that’s different in college football: seeing a guy named “Jamaal” Williams play at BYU and that he’s second in the country with 942 rushing yards.

Didn’t that place used to never run and be Quarterback U – Mormon country division?

LSU, by the way, fired Les Miles after a 2-2 start with his team still in the Top 25. The losses were 16-14 to 12th-ranked Wisconsin, who just lost to Ohio State in OT and 18-13 on the road to 18th-ranked Auburn when Danny Etling’s final play TD pass was ruled too late to count. He also was 123-34 in Baton Rouge with a national title in 2007. Good luck to his successor.

Would Texas fire struggling Curtis Strong just 16 games into his contract? Seems kind of early for that. But it’s a school that dropped ancient rival Texas A&M to extend its “brand” by playing in Japan — which as we all know is awesome football recruiting territory — and comes from the state that sent Ted Cruz to the senate, so all bets are off.

College Football 101 Answer: Alabama and Purdue each produced three Super Bowlwinning QBs. Interestingly five of them came in the first 11 SBs. For the Tide it was Bart Starr (1 & 2), Joe Namath (3) and Kenny Stabler (11), while for PU (well, at least under just-fired Darrell Hazell it is) it’s Lenny Dawson (4), Bob Griese (8 & 9) and Drew Brees (44).

Who else gets the irony of Kenneth Starr being fired as president/chancellor for looking the other way as coach Art Briles and company allegedly stymied internal investigations as sexual assaults by players kept piling up at, ahem, “religiously” affiliated Baylor?

After knocking off sixth-ranked Houston, Navy is 4-1 and ranked 25th in the nation. In this football-factory, moneyed, Baylor-infected sports culture, how does a service academy do that and how great is it that they are? And, oh by the way, their loss was to Air Force!

College Football 102: Five service academy players have won the Heisman Trophy.

Who did it most recently?

My top four Heisman candidates are (1) Deshaun Watson — I always go with the best player on an undefeated team; (2) Lamar Jackson — I know slimy Bobby Petrino’s QB, but he’s good; (3) Jabrill Peppers — wouldn’t it be cool if the second defensive player to win it is from Michigan like the first Charles Woodson was? (4) Tim Tebow — hey, old allegiances die hard.

Raise your hand if you knew Kansas State headman Bill Snyder is 77. It brought to mind what Casey Stengel said after the Yankees bounced him after they lost the series to Pittsburgh in 1960 supposedly for reaching their mandatory retirement age of 70 — “I’ll never make the mistake of doing that again.”

College Football 102 Answer: The last service academy Heisman winner was Navy’s Roger Staubach in 1963.

Finally, if the 11 teams still undefeated are cut in half by the year’s end, how are they going to decide who gets into the four-team postseason tournament? They need to make it an eight-team tournament, where you earn your way in by winning the end-of-the-year conference title game. Which actually would make it a just-right 16-team tourney.

Most know he won seven World Series and 10 pennants and went 1,149-696 between 1949 and 1960 with the Yanks. What most don’t know is that in 13 years managing the Braves, Dodgers and Mets the winning percentage was just 39.1 percent (756-1,146) and he lost 120 with the 1962 Mets, which brings to mind a take on James Carville’s famous quote: “It’s the players, stupid.”

Tim Tebow: Slugging outfield prospect for the New York Mets.

Bart Starr: Oh so accurate, mistake-free greatest game manager in NFL history who led Green Bay to five NFL titles during the 1960s, including the first two Super Bowl wins, when he was MVP both times. It’s likely his 9-1 postseason record as a starting QB will never be challenged.

Ken Starr: No relation to Bart, but instead the pious special prosecutor of Newt Gingrich’s $50 million witch hunt/lynch mob out to get President Bill Clinton that started looking at a supposedly shady land deal and wound up 18 area codes away by catching him lying so as not to get caught by his wife for slimily cheating on her with an intern.

Lenny Dawson: The Bart Starr of the AFL who led the Dallas Texans to the 1962 AFL title and Kansas City to a 23-9 win over the Vikings in SB4 in the AFL’s final season.

The Big Story: It will be hard to hold back on the superlatives when a quarterback throws (ho-hum) nine touchdowns in a single game. But here goes. Merrimack’s Justin Grassini did just that (ho-hum) in an amazing game won by the Tomahawks 68-29 over Pinkerton. He threw for (hohum) 504 yards on just 24 completions where 11 went for 15 yards or more and he only played (ho-hum) in the first three quarters on Friday night. He got help of course as receivers Danny Vancek (200), Joe Eichman (196) and Justin Wesier (107) combined for 503 receiving yards and 8 of the TDs. Most astonishing is it came against the tradition-rich Astros football program, which has won 10 state titles since 1985 and been to the finals game four other times. A job well done.

Halloween treats, from mummy dogs to Frankenstein marshmallow pops

By Kelly Sennott

ksennott@hippopress.com

There’s only so much candy corn you can eat, so why settle for traditional Halloween treats?

Spice up your fare by adding a little scariness to your entrees, hors d'oeuvres, sweets and healthy snacks.

HIPPO | OCTOBER 20 - 26, 2016 | PAGE 14

All it takes is a little twist to make a traditional dish into one with Halloween flair.

If you’re craving pasta, Liz Barbour, owner of The Creative Feast in Hollis, likes cooking it in red wine, giving noodles a deep burgundy color — the drier the wine, the sharper the flavor. She finishes it off by sauteing the pasta in oil and garlic (to keep the vampires away) and serving it in a jack-o’-lantern pumpkin with a low-carved mouth, allowing the noodles to fall out like guts. She suggests using roasted sugar

pumpkins because they’re fleshy and thick.

“Then, when somebody takes some of the pasta, they can scoop out some of the pumpkin,” Barbour said via phone last week.

If you’re looking for a side dish, go orange — there are so many vegetables of this hue that are in season, from carrots and squash to local tomatoes.

Sometimes, all your dishes need is a shape alteration, said Kristen Chinosi, owner of the Culinary Playground in Derry. Add some arms, legs and a head to your meatloaf, and you’ve got a dead body — for

extra effect, stick a fork in its chest, add PARENT-CHILD HALLOWEEN DINNER DATE Where: The Culinary Playground, 16 Manning St., Derry When: Friday, Oct. 28, from 6 to 8 p.m.

ketchup (blood) and draw a face (with olives for eyes, sliced red pepper for a mouth). If you’re serving butternut squash soup, pipe sour cream on top in a spiderweb pattern.

“Another one we do a lot is pizza,” Chinosi said. “Halloween night — that’s like the biggest pizza-ordering night of the year.

But if you want to make it more healthful, you can make your own.”

Give the pizza a pumpkin shape and add the toppings — veggies, pepperonis, bacon, whatever — into a jack-o’-lantern face. Chinosi said the Culinary Playground is hosting a parent-child workshop making these pizzas a couple days before Halloween. One of her goals, she said, is to show you can be healthy (or somewhat healthy) while still being festive.

Drain pasta in colander, return empty pot to stovetop. Add wine and sugar to pot and bring to a boil. Cook for 2 minutes. Add spaghetti and stir until spaghetti is coated.

While pasta cooks, place olive oil, garlic in large saute pan and turn heat to low. Cook garlic slowly until lightly-browned, stirring occasionally, about 5 minutes. Add crushed red pepper and chopped arugula. Add wine-cooked pasta to garlic and arugula and toss gently. Finish with grated cheese and drizzle with EVOO. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Heat oven to 375. Unroll crescent roll dough and separate into 4 rectangles. Press together to seal. Cut dough into ½-inch strips and join 3 together for long “bandage.” Wrap bandage dough around hot dogs, leaving space for mummy’s face.

Repeat with all hot dogs; arrange on baking sheet covered with parchment paper and bake 15 minutes or until golden brown.

Cut tiny slices of cheese with large straw, olives with regular straw, then stick to hot dog using mayo, mustard or ketchup.

For the ultimate finger food, Barbour suggested roasting fingerling potatoes and sticking olives on the end as fingernails.

Making creative Halloween treats might be easier in the sweet department because of things like colored frosting and creepy candy, like gummy worms, which Porter likes to press into ice cubes and serve with drinks at Halloween parties.

Another mummy munchy, courtesy of Porter, involves Rice Krispies Treats — dip them in melted white chocolate and pipe on “bandages.”

For grown-up parties, you can create the look of a bubbling witch potion by serving green Hawaiian punch and club soda in a bowl that sits inside a giant, hollowedout pumpkin — between the bowl and pumpkin, stick dried ice and warm water to create a smoky effect.

Get festive with do-it-yourself Halloween decorations

By Angie Sykeny

asykeny@hippopress.com

You don’t have to spend a lot of time and money to make your home festive for Halloween.

Holly Rousseau, an art instructor at the Currier Art Center in Manchester, has some ideas about how to recycle cardboard waste to make Halloween decorations. For example, you can cut different shaped eye holes into one side of a paper towel or toilet paper roll and put a glow stick inside for spooky glowing eyes. You can set these on a surface or tape the glowstick inside and hang them.

You can also do this with an orange plastic disposable cup: turn it upside down, make a jack-o’-lantern face and put a glow stick or electric tea light inside to make it glow.

“This same idea could be used to make ghosts on white cups or Frankenstein monsters on green cups,” Rousseau said.

Create hanging bats by cutting a cardboard egg carton into sections of three, then paint them black, stick on some googly eyes and string them up.

Tracey Boucher of Mom & I Crafts in Candia said she’s used old cotton curtains, sheets, felt and flannel to create Halloween decorations. For a witch hat, cut fabric into a cone shape and glue it with craft or hot glue to hold it in place. Stuff it with cotton batting (don’t stuff the top if you want the hat to droop down), then cut a larger circle of fabric and glue it to the bottom of the cone for the brim. If you want the hat to stay stiff, paint it with a watered down glue solution.

“Once dry, decorate the hat,” Boucher said. “You can use dried flowers or some spiderwebbing around the brim to make a great centerpiece or decoration.”

To make a ghost, get a large styrofoam ball (or any round object) and cover it with fabric.

Using a rope or ribbon, tie the fabric around the ball to keep it in place and define the neck of the ghost. Then cut some holes in the fabric in the back of the ghost so you can hang it.

“You can paint eyes on the ghost if you wish, or even attach a stick or metal coat hanger under the head to look like arms,” Boucher said.

Jennifer Coletti of Jelly Bean Art Studios in Bedford said that keeping DIY decorations cheap and easy is key.

“Don’t do too much and go over the top with your decorating,” she said. “The simpler you keep it, the better, especially with kids.”

Some easy projects, she said, are luminaries made from decorated Mason jars with electric tea lights inside, and banners made with shapes cut out from poster board and strung together with fishing line. You can fold a black trash bag and cut into it like you would a paper snowflake to make a giant spider, or just drape some fabric over inflated balloons to make floating ghosts.

“Just with cheap poster board, googly eyes, paint and some battery-operated candles, you can do a million different things,” she said. “Stick googly eyes on anything, paint on some angry eyebrows and you’ve got a monster.”

Manchester blogger Michelle Harding (wanderingmomnh.com) has come up with some creative ways to decorate pumpkins that are kid-friendly and don’t require carving with a knife. Get some foam stickers at the craft store or dollar store to make cute or creepy faces on the pumpkins.

“We hit up the dollar store for a lot,” Harding said. “It’s probably $2 or $3 for a whole bag of pre-cut shapes with a sticker back.

They have other kinds of stickers too like flowers and trucks and stuff that kids would have fun with just sticking on the pumpkin.”

Or you can use simple paint to do any kind of face or pattern you want. It doesn’t get any easier than turning a pumpkin into a ghost; just throw some scraps of white fabric over it and draw a ghost face on it with marker.

You can use a green gourd to make a spooky witch. Harding did it using some scrap fabric for a dress (you could also use a doll dress), which she filled with raffia to give it a more distinct body. Paint on a face and use googly eyes if you like, then glue some strands of raffia on the top for the hair.

You can make a hat by cutting a circle out of cardboard and cutting a hole in the center of it so it fits over the top of the gourd. Then, glue some fabric into a cone shape and glue it to the cardboard brim.

KRUPNIK This deep golden liqueur carries all the robust flavor of the local honey we start with. It is artfully balanced with spices of cinnamon, clove, nutmeg, fresh ginger, and vanilla, plus 40% alcohol to make an incredibly intense sipping liqueur. For a final touch, we lightly age the spirit on our oak ex-whiskey barrels.

Krupnik is traditionally served neat, however it mixes well with apple cider, and brandy.

If you like to be scared, immerse yourself in these haunted attractions that frighten nearly all of your senses — even your sense of smell.

Tim Dunne, the owner of Fright Kingdom (12 Simon St., Nashua, frightkingdom.com), uses artificial scents to lend his haunted attractions even more realism than the make-up and set design already accomplish. In Apocalypse Z, for example, where visitors are survivors in one of the few supposed “safe havens” of a zombie apocalypse, Dunne uses a scent that replicates the smell of decaying flesh.

He said this attraction is inspired by The Walking Dead.

“We get inspiration from what’s hot and trending from the horror movie industry,” Dunne said.

In the Castle of Corpses, where a plague has overtaken an old castle in the late 1800s, Dunne uses a similar scent called “the dead” and another scent called “gothic,” which smells like moldy old stone. At Bloodmere Manor, a “quintessential haunted house,” as Dunne puts it, the smell of stinking cheese has been added to prop up the story of an old Victorian mansion occupied by a family of cannibals. And in Psycho Circus, where visitors are thrown into a dream-like, psychedelic madhouse with fluorescent paints, 3-D illusions and clowns, they experience a sensory overload, complete with the smell of popcorn and cotton candy.

For a tactile experience, the attraction

called Grim throws visitors into a completely dark set, forcing them to feel their way around.

“There’s many things on these walls that you really don’t want to feel,” Dunne said.

Fright Kingdom also features an area called Monster Midway, which is a central area that provides access to things like an escape room, a $5 coffin ride simulator (which simulates the experience of being buried alive), a fortune teller, snack shack and a collection of Hollywood memorabilia.

Tickets for general admission are $24 and VIP tickets, which allow entry into any attraction without waiting in line, plus free use of the coffin simulator, are $34.

There have also been a number of improvements for this year’s Haunted Acres (446 Raymond Road, Candia, hauntedacres.com), such as a dual nighttime zipline and a roped obstacle course high up in the trees that’s open for use during the day, according to co-owner John Tracy.

The theme of the 60-acre park this year will be Area 52. The story goes that it’s the site of an abandoned military base where the government performed illegal and gruesome experiments on people. Attractions include the Quarter Mile Nightmare Walk, which forces visitors to wander through gloomy woods that some say are infested with real ghosts.

“The actors are afraid to go out there during the day,” Tracy said.

There’s also the 3-D Nuclear Accident House, Cell Block 13, Graveyard of the Damned and Maze from Hell, a 3,000-square-foot indoor maze.

Tickets are $28 per person or $39 for a speed pass for cutting lines. Oct. 20 and Oct. 27 are Date Nights where the second person pays half price. On Nov. 5, there will be a Lights Out night, where each attraction will be pitch black and visitors will be equipped with a glow stick.

Spooky World presents Nightmare New England and The Haunted Hayride (454 Charles Bancroft Highway, Litchfield, nightmarenewengland.com) is celebrating its 25th year, with five attractions and 180 actors deployed to make you scream in terror.

The Haunted Hayride is now in its second year and brings visitors through various scenes like a spider-infested campground, a carnival of clowns, a plane crash and human butchers. One section looks like the Ewok village from Star Wars: Return of the Jedi, Spokesperson Margot O’Riordan said, where actors dressed as tribal warriors jump onto the hayride from their treehouses.

Brigham Manor are designed after the classic haunted house motif.

“The story behind it is there’s a family that was causing issues for the town of Litchfield and the police killed them,” O’Riordan said.

Carnage is a pyrotechnic-filled junkyard with scenes reminiscent of any gory film. In The Colony, visitors run through the woods being chased by actors. The 3D Festival of Fear will make you feel like you are walking sideways at times, with glowin-the-dark effects and clowns getting in your face.

A special Lights Out event with only glowsticks will take place on Nov. 5.

Tickets start at $34.99 for general admission, which allows visitors to go through each attraction once. VIP tickets for $59.99 allow unlimited park access and one hayride, and Super VIP tickets for $74.99 allow unlimited access to everything. Prices vary on special evenings. Check their website for more details.

Haunted Overload (DeMeritt Hill Farm, 66 Lee Road, Lee, hauntedoverload.com) was awarded the No. 2 spot in the USA Today 10 Best Readers’ Choice 2016 in the haunted attraction category. The backstory of the park tells of a stranger who came to visit a small farming village. The villagers were inhospitable to the stranger, which was unlucky since the stranger turned out to be a demon who promptly cursed each villager to remain there as “undying and undead,” according to the park’s website.

The park is open to the public during the day on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays from 11 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. for $5 per person.

For night visits, people are encouraged to purchase tickets in advance for $25 since shows may be sold out. If tickets are available at the time of the show, they are $29.

Friday Night Light events, where visitors can see all the sets without the scares, on Oct. 20 and Oct. 31, are $13.

ARTS New England’s “crown”

Mount Washington subject of new Currier exhibition Why Mount Washington?

By Kelly Sennott

ksennott@hippopress.com

For a pocket of time, Mount Washington was at the center of the art world.

Artists traveled from afar to North Conway to capture the Northeast’s tallest mountain in pencil, ink or oil, and as a result, there’s an enormous mass of artwork depicting the 6,289-foot peak — much of which decorates the Currier Museum of Art’s latest show, “Mount Washington: The Crown of New England,” on view through Jan. 16.

“During the period the show covers … the White Mountain region goes from basically an unexplored, uncharted wilderness with a few settlers to the most popular tourist attraction in the United States for a number of decades,” said Andrew Spahr, director of collections and exhibitions at the museum. “And the interest in the images, stories and literature about the White Mountains reflects that — the huge volume that was produced about Mount Washington is just amazing.”

The making

The show’s big — it takes a while to walk from one end to the other — and represents years of work.

Currier staff had made tentative plans for a White Mountain-themed show years back, but it was delayed for many reasons, including the 2008 museum expansion. It returned to the budget about three years ago, Spahr said.

In preparation, Spahr toured the Mount Washington Observatory and spent time with its staff and at its library and weather museum. Many pieces are on loan from the observatory and regional institutions.

Spahr had hiked the White Mountains before, but he was surprised by some of the things he learned, and he thinks muse“Mount Washington: The Crown of New England” Where: Currier Museum of Art, 150 Ash St., Manchester When: On view through Jan. 16 Admission: Museum admission is $15 for adults, $13 for seniors, $10 for students, $5 for youth, plus an extra $5 special exhibition fee Storytime in the Gallery: Monday, October 24, 11:30 a.m.; hear a children’s librarian read Mountain Dance

“Mount Washington from the Valley of Conway,” 1851, by John Frederick Kensett (American, 1816-1872), oil on canvas, 40 3/8 x 603/8 in., Davis Museum at Wellesley College, Wellesley, Massachusetts, gift of Mr. and Mrs. James B. Munn (Ruth C. Hanford, Class of 1909) in the name of the Class of 1909.

um patrons will be, too.

“People may think they know about Mount Washington, but there’s just such a rich history in all these areas — art, science, tourism and adventure. So much has been published. There have been so many images, and there’s always something new to discover,” he said. “It’s the largest show the Currier’s ever done in terms of the number of objects and the amount of space it takes up in the building.”

Painters travel to North Conway

The show contains 40 paintings and a selection of historic prints, vintage photographs, scientific reports and guidebooks.

They’re organized chronologically and span the 1820s to the late 1870s.

In the first room are some of the paintings that put Mount Washington on the map — pieces by Hudson River School artists like Albert Bierstadt, Thomas Cole, Jasper Francis Cropsey, John Frederick Kensett and David Johnson, plus acclaimed painters like Winslow Homer and George Inness.

One of the most famous is at the very beginning: “View in the White Mountains,” painted by Cole in 1827, which first attracted the artist community. Later, “Mount Washington from the Valley of Conway,” painted by John Frederick Kensett in 1851 after a trip to North Conway with his friend, fellow artist Benjamin Champney, helped garner an

even wider audience, when the American Art-Union made a print of it that went out to about 13,000 subscribers.

“Within one year, interest in Mount Washington basically skyrocketed because this image was reproduced as this print. It went all over the East Coast and the art world,” Spahr said. “So this really catapults the whole idea of artists coming to North Conway to paint.”

Along the walls, viewers will find these paintings (and prints, drawings and images). They depict the White Mountains at all angles, from the summit houses and peaks to the valley looking up at steep notches and picturesque waterfalls.

The exhibition also tells what it was like painting the region those early years — artists sometimes hiked miles to find the perfect view.

It wasn’t long before the mountain reached international audiences. “An Indian Summer Morning in the White Mountains,” painted by Jasper Francis Crospey in 1857, showcases New Hampshire foliage, and when Crospey brought it to England, people questioned the colors; luckily, he’d kept a scrapbook of pressed autumn leaves as proof, earning him an audience with Queen Victoria, Spahr said.

One of the last paintings in the show is Bierstadt’s enormous 10-foot-wide “The Emerald Pool,” painted in 1870. The stop in Manchester is its first time in New England since its creation.

“If you talk about the mid-19th century, America’s just starting to find itself as a country, and very few people had been out West,” Spahr said. “Other than Lewis and Clark, many people hadn’t seen the Rockies or Yosemite, so those were the kind of things that were yet to be documented or promoted. … They were looking for symbolism in the Eastern landscape, and Mount Washington was one of the things that was right there and readily available.”

It was also pretty accessible. The Crawford Path leading up the mountain is the oldest hiking trail in the United States, laid out in 1819. By 1861 you could ride a carriage to the summit, and by 1869, a train — which was also the first of its kind in the country.

“Sylvester Marsh was a New Hampshire native and businessman who patented the mechanism used for the cog railway. … The earliest locomotives were made at the Manchester Locomotives Works here in Manchester,” Spahr said.

Its above-treeline terrain made the site a place of interest for scientists, too (and sometimes, scientific projects called on artists to illustrate the latest research).

Spahr was particularly interested in the pictures documenting an expedition the winter of 1870-71 — the first Mount Washington overnight excursion. They display an ice-capped mountain and crew members lying on the ground to measure wind speed.

“At the time, the public thought it was a silly enterprise. They didn’t understand what the need for gathering the information was,” Spahr said. “But if they could begin to understand meteorology, they could begin to develop ways to predict storms, which would be advantageous economically — it could help in predicting storms for shipping at sea, and also in predicting weather for farmers.”

By the end of the 1870s, Mount Washington began to dwindle from artist interests; painters began looking westward and dabbling in impressionism.

Still, almost 200 years later, the mountain gets about 250,000 visitors a year.

One of the Currier’s goals is to show the art world’s role in those numbers.

“For anyone who’s interested in Mount Washington, [the show] provides some cultural context as to why and how Mount Washington became such an iconic image and idea in the public imagination,” Spahr said.

Sexiest show in town

Palace presents Best Little Whorehouse in Texas

By Kelly Sennott

ksennott@hippopress.com

The first time Palace Theatre Artistic Director Carl Rajotte saw The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas, he was in the sixth grade and working the spotlight for a dinner theater production in Georgetown, Massachusetts, that his dad was acting in.

Even as a preteen, Rajotte was eager to sit in the director’s chair.

“I remember watching it and thinking, someday I’m going to choreograph this show,” Rajotte said at the theater recently.

“I remember thinking, why aren’t the girls dancing more? And when the football guys came on, I thought, why aren’t they moving? This is such great music!”

He finally got his chance with the Palace Theatre’s premiere of The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas, which opens Friday, Oct. 21, with shows through Nov. 12.

The story is well-known for its 1982 film version starring Dolly Parton and Burt Reynolds, but it was a musical first, with book by Larry King and Peter Masterson and music and lyrics by Carol Hall.

It opened on Broadway in 1978 and ran for 1,584 performances.

It takes place in the 1970s and is about a See The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas Where: Palace Theatre, 80 Hanover St., Manchester When: Oct. 21 through Nov. 12. See website for dates and times.

brothel that’s been operating outside the fictional town of Gilbert, Texas. Miss Mona Stangley is the proprietor, and she takes care of her girls while maintaining good relationships with the local sheriff and community — until a television reporter comes to town and makes the illegal activity an issue.

“The cool thing about this show is it is based on a true story. It’s very interesting.

The house was in Texas, and it was very famous. It was illegal, obviously, but it was tolerated by everyone around, including the politicians and the law enforcement,” Rajotte said.

The women working there had strict rules.

About 75 percent of their paycheck went to the proprietor, Edna Milton, and in return, prostitutes got free housing, food and health care, with weekly medical check-ups.

What they were able to keep was equivalent to about $200 to $300 today, said Rajotte, who’s been spending a lot of time researching the real story. His findings have informed his direction.

“These women were really powerful women. They were in control,” Rajotte said. “All of our blocking, all of our stage directions, all of our choreography, it’s always with the woman in the lead. She’s initiating everything.”

There’s an interesting, dynamic plot to the show, with tender moments Rajotte wasn’t expecting. He mentioned one scene the cast had run through the day before.

“One of the rules to be a girl in this house is that you can’t have a husband or kids or any of that. The owner didn’t want to have that complication,” Rajotte said. “Secretly, one of the [new] girls does have a child at home, and she gets caught on the phone talking to her child and telling her mom she’ll be back as soon as she makes some money. It’s a tender, tender scene.”

Every year, the Palace produces a whole gamut of styles — family shows, comedies, dramas — and at least one “sexy show” aimed at adults. The theater and sponsors are marketing this as “the sexiest show in town,” which actually forced Rajotte to make some adjustments.

“I went back to the script, and I thought, this doesn’t really lend itself to ‘the sexiest show in town.’ So we’re upping the ante quite a bit. … I’ve put the guys in more numbers than they usually are [in]. … The music lends itself to have a little bit of a honky-tonk, country feel, and so we’re playing it with a faster tempo,” Rajotte said.

The costumes are sexy and revealing — think Frederick’s of Hollywood, Rajotte said — and the set design will be “almost like Texas throwing up on the stage,” with red, white and blue coloring, ropes, wagon wheels and neon lighting to offer a red-light district, contemporary air.

As a not-so-scary way to celebrate Halloween, take an evening stroll through the woods around the McLane Center in Concord during the annual Enchanted Forest, happening Friday, Oct. 21, and Saturday, Oct. 22.

“We like to call it a family-friendly alternative to scary haunted houses, and it’s also designed as an educational event,” said Ruth Smith, community engagement manager of New Hampshire Audubon, which hosts the walks each year. “We usually do it the weekend before Halloween so as not to compete with trick-or-treating, and we put up Halloween decorations to keep in the season.”

The educational walk will be led by volunteers and filled with nature-themed skits, campfire stories and more. Jack-o-lanterns will light the way throughout the trails.

Inside the center, enjoy crafts, games and refreshments while you wait to embark on the walk, which which will be split into one-hour time slots that will leave every 20 minutes, from 5 to 8 p.m. each night.

Each group that departs will have two guides for the duration of the trail, which makes stops at four Enchanted Forest When: Friday, Oct. 21, and Saturday, Oct. 22, 5 to 8 p.m.

separate skit sites, Smith said. All of the skits will be covered in the event of rain.

“Each [skit] has live actors who act out as animals, plants or various features of the natural world and they work on dispelling myths, so the skits are informative and educational but humorous and fun as well,” she said. “We provide all of the costumes and write the scripts ourselves for the volunteers to rehearse.”

Previous skits have been about why birds migrate and the challenges they face, how spiders can be helpful to our ecosystem, a “weather wizard” who gives talks about climate change and weather patterns, and more. Other iconic Halloween images like bats and skeletons have

been acted out to stay true to the Halloween spirit. But Smith said the skits are a surprise, as they are usually not disclosed until participants are actually out in the woods.

“It’s usually a combination of some new skits and versions of some recycled skits that we haven’t done in a while but have brought back,” Smith said, noting that the first walk was back in 1987.

At the conclusion of each walk, the group will gather around a campfire with a storyteller who will tell stories based on old Native American legends.

Smith said although the first couple of tours are typically more popular among families with younger children, due to its still being daylight outside, the event

each year has drawn teenagers and adults without children as well.

“We have volunteers who donate a ton of time and practice and we have folks that come back year after year for that reason,” she said. “I think especially for some of the adults that come back, they appreciate that kind of community engagement and involvement.”

The event has inspired similar walks all across New England, having developed a reputation as the first established woods-based walk around the Halloween season.

“The thing about nature is that there are so many fascinating and cool things that you can use as skits and can teach in a fun and engaging way,” Smith said, “so it truly is a magical event.”

Planting bulbs

Early bloomers to look forward to

By Henry Homeyer

listings@hippopress.com

For the past three decades or more I‘ve planted the bulbs of spring-blooming plants every fall. Some years it was just a couple of dozen, other years more than 100. October is a good time to plant them, though one year I was traveling and didn’t plant my bulbs until November. I had to shovel snow off the ground to plant bulbs that year.

I plant bulbs because it gives me something to look forward to during the depths of winter.

I dream of clouds of purple scilla and white snowdrops, hillsides awash with golden daffodils, vases of tulips on every flat surface of the house. For the price of dinner for two at a moderate restaurant, you can buy 100 bulbs or more — and now is the time to do so.

I love snowdrops. Granted, they’re small and their blossoms hang down so they’re hard to see, but they’re the first to bloom, often coming up through frozen soil in early March. I transplanted 50 or 100 from my childhood home in Connecticut 35 years ago, and by now I have uncountable numbers. They sneak into my lawn, popping up far from where I put them. I don’t know how

Glory of the snow.

they move around — perhaps by seed, or perhaps with the help of those otherwise pesky rodents, the squirrels.

Other early bloomers are scilla and gloryof-the-snow, both blue to purple (glory-of-the snow also comes in pink and white). Like snowdrops, they’re small so they need to be planted in groups of 50 or more to really look good.

Crocuses also can bloom early, though I’ve never had any as early as my snowdrops.

There are at least 80 species of crocus and many hundreds of colors, but most garden centers and grocery stores just offer a couple of species and three colors: large purple, white or yellow. For that reason I study the bulb catalogs to explore other possibilities.

The bulb company McClure and Zimmerman has an excellent array of crocus, but I

find their website awkward, so it is probably worth calling for a print catalog (800-5464053). Brent and Becky’s bulbs is a family-run business that is also excellent (brentandbeckysbulbs.com or 804-693-3966). You may be surprised to see that crocus bulbs can cost over a dollar each, but the rarer varieties are pricey.

Daffodils are wonderful, in part, because animals don’t eat them — not rodents, not deer. There are hundreds of kinds of daffodils in 13 major categories. Some bloom early, some late. Some produce one flower per stem, others several. I continue to explore the daffodils each year by buying some new ones, and you should, too.

If you grow hostas, you know that their leaves don’t get very big until June or July.

I like to plant clumps of daffodils between clumps of hosta so that their leaves will cover the foliage of the daffodils after they bloom.

In recent years I have been buying 100 tulips and planting them in one bed. I like them as cut flowers, and they make terrific gifts. I like having enough to pick dozens at a time and having them all come into bloom at once.

Most tulips, for me, tend to run out of energy and get fewer in number as the years pass, so now I consider them annuals. I dig a hole

about 4 to 5 feet long and 2 feet across and plant all 100 in one place. Then, once they are done, I cut off the foliage and plant annual cut flowers like zinnias for summer enjoyment.

Wasteful? I suppose, but life is short, and I love them so.

I’ve found that my CobraHead weeder works well for planting individual small bulbs like snowdrops or crocus in the lawn. I just push it into the soil the appropriate depth, pull back to create a small slice in the soil, take out the tool and drop in a bulb. The slice in the lawn closes up easily with a push of my hand.

Add some slow-release organic fertilizer (or bulb booster) at planting time, and mix plenty of compost into the soil. Bulbs need good drainage to thrive, and compost helps with that. If you are worried about rodents, you can sprinkle them with cayenne pepper, though its effect only lasts for a year.

Lastly, buy plenty of bulbs. Come spring, you’ll revel in their beauty and enjoy them much more than that ephemeral dinner for two you might skip now in order to afford their cost.

Dear Denise, I have to tell you, I loved all the pictures you sent and what this book has to offer.

It’s a different piece of memorabilia. Not knowing all of the others you have, I’m going to say that yes I do think these catalogs are collectible and you could find a new home for them.

Catalogs, just like other things, depend on what they are from, age, condition and desirability to collectors. Antique gardening pieces are very easily marketed — items such as old garden benches, seed packets, tools, trellises, catalogs (like yours), etc.

The one you sent pictures of is in good condition. If they are all in approximately the same condition I would say the value to a collector would be about $40 each.

IN/OUT CAR TALK

Reader seeks Ray’s approval before purchase Dear Car Talk: My husband and I are thinking of buying the new Chrysler Pacifica, mainly because of the Stow ‘n Go seats. We have four golden retrievers and

By Ray Magliozzi live in a fire-prone area — in case we need to make a quick getaway, the Pacifica seems like a good choice! We’re old folks and can’t lift the seats out of the Honda and Toyota vans.

In fact, we can hardly lift the dogs! But they can get into a van themselves. Is it a good car? And what about the hybrid — is it a good idea? Thank you for any advice you can throw our way. — Deborah I drove the new Pacifica recently and loved it. It seems like a huge upgrade over the old Chrysler minivans. It handles well; it’s quiet and comfortable inside; it has a nice interior; it looks great for a minivan. And the Stow ‘n Go seats that fold into the floor are a real convenience.

Plus, the one I tested had two separate video screens for the second-row passengers, so two of your dogs can watch the cat channel while the other two watch the squirrel channel. No fighting!

What are the downsides? Well, in the past, Chrysler hasn’t been able to match the build quality of Honda and Toyota.

I owned several Dodge Caravans years ago. While they were practical, versatile and reasonably reliable, neither one lasted 150,000 miles. And they both tended to get noisy and squeaky as they got older, as things loosened up.

My 1992 Caravan even blew an engine at 8,000 miles. But, to be fair to Chrysler, that was several Clinton adminstrations ago.

Will the new Chrysler Pacifica come closer to the build quality of the leading minivan makers? I don’t know. In general, car quality has improved a lot. But how much the Pacifica has improved can’t be answered until a bunch of Pacificas have 100,000 or more miles on them.

And for that reason, I’d shy away from the hybrid version for now. It would be Chrysler’s first foray into hybrid technology. I’d want to let some other people see if Chrysler followed the “Install Hybrid Drivetrain” instructions properly before buying one myself.

But my first impression, FREE Handful of after driving the Pacifica, is that the build quality Coins Children is better.

Andfor theAll bottom line is that it’s

Under 16 Courtesy of Northeast Numismatics (Fri & Sat only)

a very nice vehicle. And you’ll probably get an acceptably reliable vehicle that the golden retrievers will thoroughly enjoy trashing.

So I’d say go for it, Deborah. And drop us a note when you hit 100,000 miles and let us know how it’s doing — other than the dog smell.

Dear Car Talk: I have a car-repair problem that three local shops can’t fix. My 1996 Toyota Tacoma (two-wheel drive, 2.4-liter engine) won’t start after it’s been running and the air temperature is 80 degrees or higher. It cranks fine, but won’t catch. I have to let it cool down for several hours, and then it starts normally. A tuneup didn’t help. This has been going on for three summers, and is getting more consistent. Any ideas, so I can tell the repair shops what to replace? — Tom Well, my first idea is to stop telling the shops what to replace. I assume you were the one who told them to try a tuneup. Most mechanics would know that a tuneup would never fix this particular problem. The most useful thing you can do, Tom, is reproduce the problem for them.

Since it happens only after it’s been running for a while in hot weather, you’re going to have to wait for a hot day — a hot weekday — when they’re open. Then take the truck out for a long drive, and drive right into the entrance of the shop — so you’re blocking the exit. Then shut off the engine.

Once it’s misbehaving for them, they’ll be able to perform some crucial tests and approach it in a logical way. For instance, they can pull off a spark-plug wire and see if it’s making spark. If it’s not, they know you’ve got an ignition problem — and they can test for a bad coil, a bad igniter or perhaps something like a crank angle sensor.

If the truck is making a spark, then they’ll know you’ve got a fuel problem, and they can test your fuel pump and fuel pump relay.

And if they approach it logically and systematically like that, they’ll figure out which part is actually faulty, replace it, the truck will start up for them, and your problem will be solved. And then you can deal with the angry mob of customers you blocked in, Tom. Good luck.

Music to your ears

Festival and craft fair returns to music school

By Matt Ingersoll

• Breast Imaging Center of Excellence

mingersoll@hippopress.com

Join in a scavenger hunt and a costume contest, try your hand at some of your favorite musical instruments and discover new sounds at the second annual Fall Fun Festival and Craft Fair.

Costumes are encouraged at the event, which is presented by the Manchester Community Music School and will be held on Saturday, Oct. 22, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.

Admission for the entire day is $5 per child and free for all accompanying adults as well as for children under 2.

“More than a fundraiser, the event is designed to bring and introduce people to the school,” said Aubrie Dionne, performance leadership director of the Manchester Community Music School and coordinator of the festival. “We wanted to make it educational but to almost have that part of it sneak in by giving kids an exploration of what is out there beyond what they might think of as the basic band instruments.”

Dionne said that was the idea behind the demonstrations, which will include stringed instruments, drums and percussion, flutes, pianos and more. While the school will be providing the flutes and pianos for the demos, guitars, violins, violas and others will be provided courtesy of Johnson String Instrument and drums will be provided by the Manchester-based Muchachos Drum & Bugle Corps.

For younger children, the Music School will be holding an open Music for Little Ones class from 10 to 11 a.m., which is included in the admission ticket for families interested in dropping in.

“It’s basically a discovery class for young kids and their parents to sit in, and it’s a precursor to learning an instrument,” Dionne said. “It’s an opportunity to learn early skills while enjoying music in a fun atmosphere.”

Dozens of local food and craft vendors will be on hand throughout the day, Dionne said, including a psychic medium who will perform angel card readings, a watercolor artist and a fiber artist.

Other vendors include Sub Zero Ice Cream, which will be selling treats and donating a percentage of the profits to the Music School, and Tracy G. Photography, which will be taking photos of children and families dressed in Halloween costumes and offering photo packages for purchase.

New this year will be a scavenger hunt involving nearly all of the vendors, Dionne said.

“The kids will have to visit all of the booths and they will be asked a question by each of the vendors, such as ‘what is your favorite instrument’ or ‘what is your favorite kind of

music,’ and they will get a sticker,” she said.

“Once they have all of the stickers, they’ll get a prize … so there’s no deadline. [The scavenger hunt] is dependent on what time you show up, and you finish it as late as you want.”

The Music School’s Flute Choir, directed

by Dionne, will be the first to perform live, at 10:30 a.m. Dionne said the choir will be dressed in costume and performing music from the Harry Potter films. A performance by the School’s Folk String Ensemble led by John Zevos will follow at 10:45 a.m.

At 11:15 a.m., New Hampshire children’s author Nancy Donovan will be reading excerpts from her books. Donovan is the author of Wild Dolphin Rider, Oscar the Herring Gull and Marissa the Forest Spirit. She will do a second reading at 2:15 p.m.

Prizes will be given out at the costume contest, which begins at noon. There is no additional charge to participate, Dionne said.

Face-painting and craft-making will also be among the activities offered throughout the day.

If you’re looking for a unique gift idea or something to spice up your holiday gatherings, you might find inspiration at the Cordials and Chocolates workshop at Canterbury Shaker Village on Saturday, Oct. 29.

Clinical herbalist Maria Noel Groves of Allenstown will demonstrate how to make herb-infused chocolate truffles and cordials and guide participants through the process of making their own to taste and take home.

“They’re really different techniques, but they’re both fun and yummy,” Groves said.

“It gives people a chance to play around with herbs and food and make gifts and preparations for the holidays all at the same time.”

Groves will begin the workshop with some facts about chocolate, its health benefits and why it’s a good backdrop for herbal flavors.

Peppermint, vanilla, lavender, ginger, nutmeg, cinnamon and basil are just some of the herbs that work well with chocolate. To make the truffles, the herbs are infused into the cream, then melted down with the chocolate and chilled.

“If you’ve never made them before, it’s not that complicated, but it’s really timeconsuming, and making them in a group is fun and goes a lot faster,” Groves said. “It’s just meant to give people an idea of what’s involved. Then they can recruit friends and family members and make bigger batches at home for parties or gifts.”

While the chocolates are being infused and chilled, the group will move on to making the cordials. There will be three seasonal fruits to choose from: apples, pears and cranberries.

The process involves filling a jar with the chopped fresh fruit, chosen herbs, a sweetener and alcohol. Participants will complete all steps except for the alcohol, which they will have to add at home. Groves will suggest

that they use a quality vodka, brandy or other spirit that provides a clean base for the fruit and herb flavors to come through. Most cordials are ready to drink within a day or two.

Groves will be demonstrating with a maple pear spice cordial, but other popular combinations are apple cinnamon, spiced cider and cranberry rosemary.

“They’re fun and so easy to make,” she said. “You just work off of what flavor profiles work nicely together. The alcohol on its own is already good at extracting [certain herbs], so they come out nice and flavorful and taste really good.”

Participants will go home with some chocolate truffles, a 4-ounce cordial and some recipes for other chocolate treats and cordial combinations to try on their own.

Cordials and Chocolates When: Saturday, Oct. 29, 10 a.m. to 2:30 p.m.

Where: Canterbury Shaker Village, 288 Shaker Road, Canterbury Cost: $50 for Canterbury Shaker Village members, $60 for non-members. All materials and supplies are included. Purchase tickets online. Space is limited.

Visit: shakers.org 8 ounces quality vodka (Flag Hill’s General Stark Vodka works well) Simmer the pears and spices in the maple syrup and water for approximately one hour. Remove from heat occasionally if it seems to be boiling too hard.

Pour all the ingredients into a Mason jar.

(Remove the cinnamon sticks if you want the cinnamon flavor to remain subtle.)

Cover with vodka, cap, and let sit on the counter for one to four weeks, shaking daily. Taste it every few days. The flavor will gradually change, becoming more spicy and less fruity nutmeg-flavored over time.

When it tastes good to you, strain your cordial into bottles and enjoy.

If you love Indian food, there’s a new way to get it that doesn’t require going out to a restaurant. Calcutta Curry, a Derrybased meal service specializing in Indian cuisine, is now offering home delivery weekly meal subscriptions for southern New Hampshire, as well as a new cooking class series.

Owner Priya Dutta has been running the business on and off since 2013, appearing at local farmers markets and offering monthly frozen meal subscriptions, private cooking classes and cooking parties. With the growing popularity of Indian food in the area, she decided to start expanding.

“There are a lot of people here who are very enthusiastic about Indian food but only end up eating it at a restaurant,” she said. “I want there to be ways for people to get healthy, homestyle Indian food, so now, if you’re adventurous, you can learn to make it yourself at our classes, or you can try our meal delivery.”

The new weekly meal service begins the first week of November. Orders are due every Wednesday, and meals are delivered on the following Tuesday. (For the first week, that means orders will be due

by Wednesday, Oct. 26, and meals will be delivered on Tuesday, Nov. 1).

Each week will feature a menu with five to six meals to choose from. The first menu includes sambhar (tangy and

spicy soup with mixed vegetables), homestyle dal (soup made with lentils, onions and spices), vegetable stir-fry, aloo dum biryani (spiced blend of cooked rice and potatoes), fish fry and chicken do pyaza (chicken prepared in a spicy onion paste sauce with chunks of onion and pepper).

All meals are made with as many local ingredients as possible.

“The taste of Indian food is very different from other cuisines like American and Italian and Mexican,” Dutta said. “There’s a lot of different flavor profiles and a lot that goes into the flavor to make it all come together, and I think that’s why [it’s appealing].”

Calcutta Curry’s new cooking classes kicked off last month and will continue with a class held approximately every six weeks at Creative Chef Kitchens in Derry, alternating between beginner and advanced level. Students will learn to make a combination of healthy vegetarian, non-vegetarian and gluten-free dishes, including two entrees, a side and a dessert if there is time. At the end of the class, they can eat the meal they prepared together and go home with leftovers and recipes.

While the classes focus on Indian cuisine, Dutta said the skills taught can be applied in all kinds of cooking.

“Even if people aren’t making an Indian meal, the class will give them ideas about how to use these spices and ingredients in their regular meals and how to incorporate them into their everyday cooking,” she said.

suggested using bread flour instead of allpurpose for a crispier crust. That, combined with yeast, sugar, salt and water, made for a simple and sublime crust. I had always thought making my own dough would be way too labor-intensive or time-consuming. But with my stand mixer, the entire prep process took a little less than 20 minutes. Sure, I had to plan ahead to allow enough time for the dough to rise, but it was well worth the wait.

And now that I’ve found a recipe I want to stick with, I know I can make double batches and freeze some before giving it time to rise.

On the first pizza I made with this crust I kept the toppings simple — traditional cheese and pepperoni. I wanted to let the crust shine through. This recipe makes pizza practically pantry-friendly, as you can keep everything to make it on hand, and just switch up the fresh toppings — something I’ll be doing, now that I’ve found a reliable pizza place in my own kitchen.

— Lauren Mifsud spoons of the olive oil and beat until dough forms a ball.* Scrape the dough onto a lightly floured surface and gently knead into a smooth, firm ball. Grease a large bowl with the remaining 2 teaspoons olive oil, add the dough, cover the bowl with plastic wrap and put it in a warm area to let it double in size, about 1 hour. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and divide it into two equal pieces. Cover each with a clean kitchen towel or plastic wrap and let them rest for 10 minutes. *If in the mixer the dough is too sticky, add more flour, about 1 tablespoon at a time. If the dough is too dry, add water, about 1 tablespoon at a time until a firm dough forms.

Pizza is one of my favorite food groups, and yes, I consider it in a category all its own. While there are limitless possibilities for topping combinations to satisfy every craving, the true test of a pizza all boils down to one thing: the crust.

Since moving to a new town, I’ve struggled to find a consistently delicious slice. I had good luck at one pizza parlor only to be disappointed on a return visit. The one time I tried to have pizza delivered, it took almost 2 hours to arrive from a location within walking distance of my home.

Discouraged and hungry, I set out looking for recipes for my own perfect pizza crust. I already have a sauce recipe that I use for everything from pasta to Stromboli, and I can turn just about any pantry ingredient into a pizza topping, so I really just needed to find a pizza crust recipe to keep my cravings at bay.

Before trying my hand at making my own crust, I ventured to the store and purchased premade dough as well as frozen dough. I tried each, to varying degrees of success. The crusts with each of those items turned out OK, but they left me wanting.

Finally, I came across a recipe from Bobby Flay, and it solved all my problems. He

Sample Tasting Every Saturday & Sunday

We are having a pretty nice fall season here in New Hampshire. Some years, we seem to skip this season altogether, but that isn’t the case this year. Fall for me means switching from white to red and celebrating other fall flavors: apples, pumpkins and comfort food in the slow cooker.

Our New Hampshire winemakers also celebrate the flavors of fall in their wines and meads. With Thanksgiving about a month away, I am already thinking about pairings and stocking up on some of my fall favorites. Here are some New Hampshire wines that pair well with the season.

Apple picking season has been in full swing and with the abundance of fruit here, it is a natural choice for wine. Seven Birches Winery in Lincoln offers a Windy Ridge Apple wine, named after the orchard where the apples are harvested. This is a semisweet wine with a cider taste on the finish.

For a slightly different take on apple wine, try Mapplez from Zorvino Vineyards. They pair locally grown heirloom apples with New Hampshire maple syrup for a unique wine that is a treat for the senses. As a side note, I tried to purchase some of this wine during a recent trip to the winery and they were sold out. However, I have been told it is back in stock, so I need to get some before this batch sells out, too.

Apple cider is delicious on its own, but if you want to give it a little kick, try it hot with some Kurt’s Apple Pie mead from Moonlight Meadery or Vanilla Bean Mead from Sap House Meadery. This is a great way to warm up after apple picking or attending a game. Another option is warming some apple wine in a slow cooker with mulling spices and cinnamon sticks. I have made this during Thanksgiving in the past and it is another good way to warm up when the temperatures are cooler outside.

Copper Beech Winery in Hooksett has several offerings to celebrate the season including Crisp Apple, Melisi Heritage Apple and Autumn Harvest wines. The Crisp Apple is off-dry, a little bit tart and a little bit sweet. The Melisi Heritage wine is made from fruit gathered from an old tree, so quantities can be limited depending on the year. This wine is similar to a pinot grigio. The Autumn Harvest is a blend of apples and white cranberries fermented together to make a wine that is tart and slightly sweet. Owner Lin recommends enjoying this wine warm spice mulled on fall and winter days.

One of my favorite fall wines is the

Apple Cranberry from Flag Hill Winery & Distillery. This wine is tart and sweet and perfect for Thanksgiving. I had a hard time finding some last year, so I recently purchased a bottle to make sure I have it on hand. It’s a very popular wine this time of year.

For apple wine with a little pop, try the Sparkling Harvest Apple Wine from Hermit Woods Winery. They take their Harvest Apple wine, made from apples, crabapples and quince, and give it some effervescence. The result is a light and fruity wine with a long finish. LaBelle Winery has its own take on bubbly with Shimmer, a blend of riesling and dry apple wines. This is a semi-dry sparkling wine with crisp fruit and floral tones that can also add a little pizzazz to your glass.

For dessert in a bottle, try the Jumping Jack’s Pumpkin Wine from Zorvino Vineyards. The crew at Zorvino slaves away every year to make this wine from local New Hampshire pumpkins. The result is pumpkin pie in a bottle. This wine is intense on its own, but I think it would be great in coffee or as part of a pumpkin pie martini with whipped cream vodka. Gilmanton Winery also makes a Pumpkin Pie wine that is unique and perfect for fall.

In Whatever Happened To Such-andSo Local Band news, we catch up with Boston punk legends Gang Green, or at least their peak mid-80s incarnation, the one that gave us “Alcohol” and “Skate to Hell,” or, more specifically, the lot that featured the then-teenage brothers Glen and Chuck Stilphen, who lead this project. This is basically a long-overdue one-off EP, featuring two long-lost songs that are 21 years old and two new ones, all, it appears, recorded at Boston’s Fort Apache studio, which should clang all sorts of bells for you if you were ever on the musician side of the scene. If you’re expecting dated partyanthem-oi, you’re out of luck; it’s dated ’90s grunge-ish material, at least going by focus single “Das Waltz,” which even has an old video in the books, starring these guys when they looked good with their shirts off. That tune is reminiscent of Limp Bizkit, but more accurately Live, if you’re old enough to have any idea who that is. But wait a minute, the title track and “Wayside” are rattle-bang crash-the-party skate-punk, and “Spaz” wants to be Gravity Kills. Scattershot but decent throughout. B- — Eric W. Saeger

With all the internet shamings like Taylor Swift’s shooting a video in Africa that only had white people in it, you may have missed the one where Pretenders leader Chrissie Hynde got nailed

by NPR for a none-too-PC remark.

We shan’t go there — it’s always been impossible to grok Chrissie’s motivation, and meanwhile here, in her first Pretenders-proper LP in eight years, she’s still hiding her cards both emotionally and musically. In the T Bone Burnett-checking skuzz-blues opener “Alone Song,” is she kidding that she wants to sit home by herself and watch a movie, or is she actually joyful about it? Whatever, she’s still the goddess of post-punk, stating her case with a sound so analog it makes Jack White look like Michael Bolton (the lead-in to the aforementioned track sounds like it was recorded on a boombox), and throughout this record she cements her brand, that oddly comforting, shuffling bar-rock that hasn’t E with such vibes as bossa INNcut been heard since “Break Up the Concrete,” this time nova (“One More Day”) or Siouxsie (“Let’s Get Lost”) or Raveonettes (“I Hate Rea s d e— r s P ic kEric W. Saeger Myself”). It’s breathtaking how much she rules. A+ W

• As you know, 1980s heartthrob Bon Jovi has rebranded himself as a singing corporate pitchman who rocks out in the living rooms of nostalgic soccer parents, but older thrash punks remember him as the leader of the “poser metal” movement back in the day. Every Beavis and every Butthead hated this man for ruining metal, but now that metal is ruined anyway, and Bon Jovi has become Kid Rock without all the stupid, it is safe for him to make new albums, so you’ll be able to ignore This House is Not for Sale, his 13th overall and first since he tried to buy the most mediocre team in the NFL, the Buffalo Bills. To catch you up, guitarist Richie Sambora is still fired, now let’s go listen to the title track and see if it’s more of that Rascal Flatts NASCAR-style country. Here it is, on my magic device. OK, as he promised for this record, they went back to their roots, which means another song that wants to be “Livin’ on a Prayer” but can’t, because it’s boring. There’s also a boyband feel to it, and no, that doesn’t make up for anything, quite the opposite in every possible way.

• Korn, the only useful nu-metal band from the 1990s, probably wants to beat up Bon Jovi too, because Korn truly is a bunch of demented metal maniacs. The Serenity of Suffering, their new album, is led off by the single “Rotting in Vain,” an amalgam of Alice in Chains, Cannibal Corpse and Limp Bizkit (translation: it’s awesome as always). The video is standard fare for these guys, some sort of steampunk version of Nicola Tesla with long black fingernails who needs an exorcism, because he was possessed by some demon who didn’t have anything better to do that day.

• Hooton Tennis Club are a noise-and-jangle-indie quartet from “The Wirral” in the U.K. They call it “The Wirral” instead of just “Wirral” because the English insist on being different, so that normal people won’t like them. Big Box of Chocolates is the new album, let’s go investigate and barf. Hmph, all I can find is a preview, not a whole song, because they’re afraid people are going to use the YouTube converter and steal one of their dumb songs. The snippet I heard sounds like Oasis excerpt with a moron for a singer, and the guitar sounds like a kazoo. Maybe it is a kazoo. I’d investigate to find out the real scoop for you, my beloved readers, but I just physically cannot bother.

• Ha ha, guess what time it is? Yup, it’s time to make fun of old druggie folkies, because David Crosby has a new record coming out called Lighthouse! This is turning into a regular bi-annual thing, David Crosby and me, he and I just sitting here, both wondering why he still makes albums. It’s sort of like a telethon, when David Crosby puts out an album. Why doesn’t he just write up a Kickstarter that asks the public for money so he can buy a used 1985 Corolla or something, to get him to the 7-Eleven to buy rolling papers? It would save old hippie-folkies from having to go find a record store, they could just click a PayPal button. Oh, let’s just go listen to the single “Things We Do For Love.” Slow, boring acoustic guitar, of course — wait, it’s a flute! A flute! What year is it again? 1858? Hee HEE. I love this guy! David Crosby truly helps this column write itself. Give from the heart, today! — Eric W. Saeger

er’s deployment through art. He paints all the things he did with his brother on the alleyway wall behind his house, and as he awaits his brother’s return, the mural grows, with the help of his bustling Dominican neighborhood.

Farish was also inspired by the muralmaking activities happening in Lawrence at the time, and the kids becoming inspired because of it.

“In one case, they were drawing the world, the globe, and they were seeing themselves as this part of the world. There was such a sense of discovery,” Farish said.

Farish visits New Hampshire libraries this fall as part of a nine-week, nine-library project, “Community Stories: Soldiers Home & Away,” and her next is Thursday, Oct. 27, at 4:30 p.m., at the Hampstead Public Library.

She’s finding similar community mural stories in other Granite State towns.

“As I travel with the book, that has been a part of my journey. I didn’t realize how widespread the art form was, but in almost every town in New Hampshire I go to, I ask about the murals and [the kids] tell me where they are. They connect their town and the art with the town and the mural this small boy creates,” Farish said.

Portsmouth writer Terry Farish found inspiration for her April 2016 picture book, Luis Paints the World, from the kids at the Lawrence Public Library, where she used to work as a children’s librarian.

The kids there came from a variety of different cultures, and during bilingual storytimes in the children’s room, they would sometimes sing “Naranje dulce,” which is about goodbyes. She remembers one specific boy there who was missing his brother — he was overseas performing military service — but there were many kids experiencing the pain of being separated from a sibling or parent due to deployment.

“A large percentage of the volunteer army is made up of immigrants or recent citizens.

Lawrence is a city just like Manchester, with a lot of diversity and a lot of immigrants.

And that’s why I was seeing this so much in the kids who came in,” said Farish, who recognized and empathized with their experiences. “I was married to a man in the Air Force for many years. We had a daughter together, and I saw how … abandoned kids feel when their fathers leave.”

Farish calls herself a “wannabe journalist;” though many of her books are fictional, they’re based on real stories and experiences. The subjects she’s most interested in are inspired by wartime and immigration — perhaps because one of her first jobs was working for the Red Cross in Vietnam.

Her most recent novel, The Beginning or the End of the World, was published in October 2015 and explores the intersections of love and war in a young CambodianAmerican girl’s life. Another, The Good Braider, published in 2012, is a free-verse novel about a teen and her family’s journey from war-torn Sudan to Portland, Maine.

But for this book, she wanted explore war from another perspective: that of someone left behind. “[Kids are] like, ‘Why did you leave me?’

Children see it in their own personal and emotional worlds. … They don’t understand the context. … That was what I was trying to explore. … How can they help themselves deal with it,” Farish said. “It had to be a picture book because I wanted to tell the story from the point of view of a young child who doesn’t understand war, who doesn’t understand why his brother had to go. [The boy] is only 5 or so, and in the world of children’s literature, the genre is an illustrated book.”

Luis Paints the World, set in Lawrence and illustrated by Oliver Dominguez, is about a 5-year-old who deals with his broth-

This is your dog: Moody.

Crazy. Depressed. Forgetful. Aggressive.

This is your dog on drugs: Lassie. Or, at least, a manageable dog you won’t have to put to sleep.

Drugs designed for humans can treat a variety of bad behaviors in dogs because they share much of our biochemistry, says Dr. Nicholas Dodman, a veterinarian near Boston who specializes in animal behavior.

Dodman’s new book, Pets on the Couch, recounts a lifetime of clients, including a destructive beagle, an agoraphobic cow, a bulimic gorilla, a horse that couldn’t stop eating wood and a German shepherd that wouldn’t stop chasing his tail.

Director of the Animal Behavior Clinic at Tufts University, Dodman treats his wayward patients with a controversial approach he calls “One Medicine,” in which he looks for similarities between humans and other animals, instead of differences.

“Under the hood, so to speak, in terms of the nervous system or other organ systems, there is not much difference in how things work,” he writes.

His methodology has gotten pushback from others in the medical community, including an unnamed psychiatrist who blackballed a grant Dodman sought, saying “You will never be able to discover anything about human beings by studying dogs.”

Years of occupying territory others see as the fringe of medicine seem to have soured Dodman somewhat, and his writing sometimes seems unnecessarily bitter and vaguely political. (Early on, he blusters about “a whole host of pigheaded conservatives who remain mired in the past.”)

Moreover, he enthuses so much about the wonders of prescription drugs that the reader may at times wonder if a pharmaceutical company funded this and his five other books.

But he effectively makes the case that there are some veterinarians treating animals who probably shouldn’t be since they don’t seem to care very much about their clients, and if you were a dog who squatted and urinated every time your owner came home, you’d want Dodman in your corner or, more realistically, your crate.

Bad behavior, not cancer or cars, he says, is the No. 1 killer of pets in the U.S. “What is the answer when a dog turns aggressive and starts attacking people?

When a cat becomes incontinent and fouls a new carpet? Off to the pound with it!” he

writes.

This is partly because veterinarians too often use the term “idiopathic” — which Dodson calls the five-dollar word for “I don’t know why your pet is behaving like that.”

And they don’t know because they haven’t been taught. Of about 30 veterinary schools in the U.S., only about a dozen teach animal behavior, he says.

This seems odd because figuring out why and how a crated dog managed to cross a room, open his owner’s purse and eat a lipstick seems far more interesting than administering rabies shots and neutering cats for a living. Dodson has had a fascinating career, and his cases make for interesting reading, occasionally spiced by a flash of wit. (“In the midst of crate panic, it’s as if the pet entered the phone booth as Clark Kent and emerged as Superdog, developing the strength of ten.”)

He writes movingly of the childhood experience that was an impetus for his career. His mother, an animal lover, rescued a baby bird that had fallen out of a nest and was rejected by its mother. She fed it worm chow every two hours and cared for the bird until it learned to fly in their living room. The family named it Pippit, and Dodson, who was 8 at the time, was inconsolable when they released it to the wild.

A year later, however, “something magical happened.”

Pippit returned with a mate, and flew in an open window, where she perched on the piano where she used to sit. After a few minutes, she flew away, and the family never saw her again, but the effect on Dodson was profound, he wrote.

“A creature had flown across the species barrier and touched my mother and me. Later on in life, I became all about challenging that barrier, reaching across it, questioning whether it is really a barrier at all.”

Cynics may question whether it was really the same bird, but Dodson is certain it was, as certain as he is that dogs can have ADHD and depression and get Alzheimer’s disease. His arguments are convincing, and he points out to skeptics who resist giving human medicines to dogs that animals are the reason we have these medicines at all.

“It may seem outlandish, yet all our medicines — every single pill humans place into their mouths, every injection, every balm, every suppository, even — was first tested, developed and refined using animals,” he writes.

That’s a truth even pigheaded conservatives can’t ignore. B+ — Jennifer Graham

POP CULTURE FILM REVIEWS BY AMY DIAZ

The Accountant (R)

A man with near-superhuman mathematical and focusing abilities gets tangled up with the finances of all flavors of sketchy characters in The Accountant, a strange thriller starring Ben Affleck, still in Batman mode.

Christian Wolff (Ben Affleck), not his real name, is an accountant who spends his days encouraging low-level tax embellishment to not terribly exciting clients out of his strip mall office.

Or so it appears.

But, as Treasury agent Ray King (J.K. Simmons) explains to analyst Marybeth Medina (Cynthia Addai-Robinson), the same man has had different names and appeared in surveillance photos next to shady international types at locations across the globe. He isn’t just an accountant, he’s an accountant who can look at criminal, laundered-money enterprises and figure out where missing money went and who took it. He has the secrets of drug cartels, terrorist types and others, and King wants to pin him down. He doesn’t have a current alias or location, so Medina starts by doing research on the names he used in the past and listening to the audio tape from a mass shooting the man was involved in.

Meanwhile, Christian takes what his handler describes as the rare job for a legitimate client. He’s been asked by a robotics company, whose work includes military contracts and prosthetic limbs, to examine a cash flow discrepancy found by junior accountant Dana (Anna Kendrick).

The company’s founder, Lamar Black (John Lithgow), doesn’t seem concerned

about the finances, but his sister (Jean Smart) and the company’s CFO (Andy Umberger) seem very suspicious about what Christian plans to do. Clearly somebody is rattled by his presence; a highly competent hit man (Jon Bernthal) and his thugs are killing people with a connection to the company.

Thus do we have a situation with three groups on the hunt: Medina and the Treasury agent for the accountant, Christian for the financial wrongdoing and the killer for, eventually, Christian.

HIPPO | OCTOBER 20 - 26, 2016 | PAGE 56

only good reason I can think of for crafting a relationship for these people is to give the usually not-so-talkative Christian a person to deliver exposition and explanation to.

The Accountant suffers from “and also” syndrome. And also Christian’s secret identity as accountant to the criminal underworld. And also his adult backstory.

And also his childhood backstory, with its explanation of how his father taught him to live with his autism-related difficulties and abilities. And also the shady killer coming after anyone who knows anything about the accounting trouble at the robotics company. And also the treasury agent. And also Medina. And also her backstory. And, hey, it’s Anna Kendrick. That is a lot of “and also” — probably about 35 percent more story than was needed.

Ferguson.

Blunt turns in a serious and seriously good performance as a woman whose drinking and sadness have overtaken anything like a life. The rest of this suspense movie is OK-ish but fun thriller stuff about a missing woman, a perfect suburb and what a bad-ass cop Allison Janney plays. B*The Magnificent Seven (PG-13) Denzel Washington, Chris Pratt.

Denzel Washington dresses like a cowboy, rides a horse and has a shootout ― if you need your movie to go deeper than that, this very conventional Western is probably not for you. But if your reaction is “yee-haw!” to that description, then sad-

And this is not a movie that had a lot of room to mess around with unnecessary story. It runs over two hours and you feel that long runtime. It jumbles humor and suspense together in a way that never quite clicks — I, other people in the theater and sometimes all of us laughed at beats I’m not entirely certain we were meant to laugh it. It holds a few big reveals until its final moments but they seem disingenuous.

I think we’re supposed to feel we’ve just been on a twisty ride but instead I felt like the movie was gluing “surprises!” into its plot to cover holes and general weakness.

That said, The Accountant was stylish.

The visuals it used to explain Christian’s personality —the sparse arrangement of things, in particular — were interesting even when the story happening in these settings was only mildly attention-holding.

Also, I kind of enjoy this Affleck, who is basically a variation on the Batman he’s done in the last two DC Comics movies.

Barely restrained violence? Yes. Laser focus on tasks? Check. Ability to outfight infinite henchmen? Yep. The only difference is that this wrong-side-of-the-law avenger has an Airstream trailer and a pickup truck instead of a Bat Cave and a Batmobile. And hey, now that I think about it, the not-quiteskilled mix of humor fits too.

The Accountant isn’t bad, as grown-up thrillers go, but it also doesn’t do anything all that exciting or even stay with you much beyond the theater parking lot. C+ Rated R for strong violence and language throughout. Directed by Gavin O’Connor and written by Bill Dubuque, The Accountant is two hours and eight minutes long and distributed by Warner Bros.

dle up because this story about seven plucky ne’erdo-wells and their attempt to bring justice/revenge to a small town is lots of fun. B+ Masterminds (PG-13) Zach Galifianakis, Kristen Wiig.

Also turning in funny if not entirely cohesive-with-themovie performances are Leslie Jones and Kate McKinnon. This movie, based on the true story of the theft of millions of dollars from an armored car company, is very dumb but funnier than it should be thanks to a strong comic cast. C+ Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children (PG-13) Asa Butterfield, Eva Green.

This book adaptation by Tim Burton gets bogged down in

all the exposition and universe-building about this world of supernatural-power-having children and the scary things that are hunting them but still has moments of good adventure. B Snowden (R) Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Shailene Woodley.

Director Oliver Stone turns in a restrained, mature and ultimately totally boring look at leaker of NSA documents Edward Snowden. C+ Storks (PG) Voices Andy Samberg, Kelsey Grammer.

Solid vocal talent does not save the all-noise, nocharm story of a stork and an orphan attempting to deliver a baby to her new home. C

In 2010, Jim Breuer made a special called Clearing the Air. In it, he tried to turn the page on some bits that made him famous, like SNL’s Goat Boy and the stoner in Half Baked, to comedy with more depth and dimension. It was a pitch to his future fans, Breuer explained recently.

“From here on in, this is who Jim Breuer is, and this is how my standup is always going to be,” he said. “I’m a family guy, I’m a little edgy but don’t cuss still. I take care of elderly folks. I do the right thing even though it’s a real pain in the chops sometimes.”

It took some time, and Goat Boy still pops up briefly, but the comic is more successful — on his own terms. That’s on his mind as he tries a new guise as heavy metal front man. Songs from the Basement, the first album with his band The Loud & Rowdy, is a solid rock effort, not an extension of his standup. He did include a few jokey songs, though, to placate the faithful.

But make no mistake — Breuer’s not fooling around.

“All right, I’m making a metal album [but] here’s your ‘Be a D***’ and ‘Sugar Rush’ — a little comedy,” he said.

“But start getting used to songs like ‘Old School,’ ‘Who’s Better Than Us,’ ‘Wannabe’ and ‘The Unexplained,’ because that’s what’s coming in the next album.”

The record will be playing before Breuer’s upcoming appearance at Manches-

ter’s Palace Theatre. His comedy remains an oasis from the noisy world outside.

“I’m all about no politics, no religion, no conversations that divide and conquer. I’m here to unite and make you laugh,” he said.

“I don’t read the news, I don’t follow pop culture. I talk about real life, what’s going on in your inner circle, whether it’s having teenagers, being a husband … subjects people relate to. I show you that onion and then I go right for your gut. I don’t try to be cute.

He hopes fans will embrace Breuer the rocker, and a summer of performing has him optimistic. At a September festival near his hometown in New Jersey, Lizzie Hale joined him onstage for AC/DC’s “Shoot to Thrill” and got a great response

to a rendition of the kids’ song “Bingo” in the style of his favorite bands.

“We did Metallica, Alice in Chains, Volbeat and Slayer doing verses,” Breuer said.

“It was hilarious, a huge crowd favorite.”

For Breuer, sharing the stage with big acts like Alice Cooper, Twisted Sister and The Used recalls his early days as a comedian.

“The crowd doesn’t know who you are so you just gotta rely on being funny and entertaining and just bring it,” he said. “The good news is not only did they not walk away, but the audience I wanted is coming out of the woodwork. … It’s morphing into something I really want — mixing the standup world with storytelling and then leaping into a song.”

The hard work it took to make Songs from the Basement prepared him for the road ahead. Rob Caggiano of Anthrax and Volbeat produced the record.

“I literally picked Caggiano out of a lineup,” Breuer said. “I saw a picture of him and went, ‘This guy’s gonna get me, he’s everyone I ever hung out with growing up.’ We went to a comedy show and he said, ‘Yeah, let’s do this.’ He only knows the rock music world and I only knew the comedy world. It was a perfect situation to give him 100 percent trust, and what he brought to the table — this thing would have been a disaster without him.”

Caggiano helped with his songwriting and also grounded Breuer’s music business naïveté. “I came in like a puppy dog saying the album’s gonna be great and we’re gonna sell out arenas, right?” Breuer said.

“He said, ‘Yeah, no — you need investors, a couple 100K for radio. They don’t play it because they like it.’ Once I came to terms with what he meant I started working it. …

I’m pretty confident that if I keep this up, I’ll be good.”

JOYFUL JAZZ The four young members of Earprint hail from diverse backgrounds, but they share an affinity for jazz that engages and challenges listeners. Their debut CD, due out Oct. 21, has already caught the attention of saxophonist and MacArthur genius grant recipient Miguel Zenón. They perform on Sunday, Nov. 13, from 7 to 9 p.m. at Riverwalk Café (35 Railroad Square, Nashua. Fired by a shared passion for challenging but engaging music, Earprint has quickly forged a sound with what its members refer to as an “aggressively melodic, shamelessly youthful approach.”

SIGNS OF LIFE someone I’ve never met, MOM,” you say. “If you think he’s so rockin’, you marry him.”

Choose for yourself, not for others.

Taurus (April 20 – May 20) “So, as I was saying,” you say, trying to get thoughts of breakfast out of your head, images of orange juice with just the right amount of pulp and eggs that are perfect, better than perfect, they’re the eggs you’d eat in your dreams if only you dreamed bigger, impossibly bigger, and the bacon is so tasty that you roll your eyes like it’s a joke, because it’s ridiculous…, “love sure is an emotion that I experience deeply! Do you . . . also like love?” you ask.

You’re going to like breakfast.

Gemini (May 21 – June 20) This time when you open the door you see a lineup of messengers, extending out past the bend in your driveway. They’re all from people at the party who witnessed your becoming a social pariah and who want to make it very clear to you, and to everyone else, that they never want to see you again. Listen calmly when people tell you how they feel.

Cancer (June 21 – July 22) Everything that happened felt so important when it was going on, but now that you’ve got some distance, it really does sound like a joke. You may gain some perspective.

Leo (July 23 – Aug. 22) You sit on your bed quietly, which is itself its own form of adventure. Several hours later, Balthasar returns with the supplies you asked for, including TWO horses! You might want some supplies.

Virgo (Aug. 23 – Sept. 22) You decide to ignore all further communication from Paris.

If you see him at a party, you walk in the other direction. If you see him in the street, you cross to the other side. If you see him on a waterslide you say, “Oh wow cool a waterslide,” and push him out of the way so you can start enjoying the waterslide right away without him. Oh wow cool a waterslide!

All quotes are from Romeo And/Or Juliet,

by Ryan North, born Oct. 20, 1980.

Libra (Sept. 23 – Oct. 22) You push open the double doors to the party room. The instant you do, the orchestra stops mid-note, and everyone turns to look at you. This is your moment! Well?

Scorpio (Oct. 23 – Nov. 21) You rush into your house, draw the curtains, and start to pace. You’re in way over your head, Romeo.

You have no idea what to do. Calm down, you’ll think of something.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22 – Dec. 21) You consider pressing up against an existing wall for your “wall disguise” but realize that even in the best case it’ll attract attention because people will wonder why there are two walls back-to-back in that one section of hallway.

You’re too smart to make THAT beginner’s mistake! Heed your second thoughts.

Capricorn (Dec. 22 – Jan. 19) It’s not a very big garbage can, and it’s way too small to fit you inside. You’ve got one foot on top of the garbage that’s already in it and you’re gingerly placing an orange peel on your head when Benvolio catches up with you. “Romeo!” he says. “You’re so crazy! Hah hah hah! Are you trying to hide in that garbage can?” Don’t even bother with the garbage can.

Aquarius (Jan. 20 – Feb. 18) You glance out from the dance floor, and magically the crowd seems to part to allow your gaze through. There, at the other end of the ballroom, is the most beautiful man you’ve ever seen. So introduce yourself.

Pisces (Feb. 19 – March 20) You’re saying things like “You guys go on ahead, I’ll just sit outside by myself, it’s cool,” and your friends are replying with things like “Oh my gosh, for serious just shut up and try to enjoy yourself for once.” No pouting.

Aries (March 21 – April 19) “Um, no, no, I’m not going to promise to fall in love with

John Weigel and Olaf Danielson are engaged in a frenzied battle of “extreme birdwatching,” each hoping to close out 2016 as the new North American champ of the American Birding Association, and a September Smithsonian piece had Weigel ahead, 763 to 759. Danielson is perhaps better known for doing much of his birding in the nude. The old one-year record was 749, and the association attributes the larger numbers this year to El Nino, which has disrupted food supplies and driven birds into different locations.

Fine points of the law

• Compelling Explanation: Senate Bill 1342, passed in the Idaho legislature earlier in 2016, authorizes schools to use the Bible as a reference in classrooms (despite the U.S. Supreme Court’s having specifically condemned a previous version of the bill ever since 1964). The bill’s sponsor, Rep. Sage Dixon, said he thought his law was nonetheless constitutional because, “The little Supreme Court in my head says this is OK.” (Even so, Gov. C.L. Otter vetoed the bill.)

• Nebraska voters in November will be asked whether to keep the state’s longstanding death penalty for murder even though retaining it will require them to vote “repeal.” The legislature replaced death row last year with mandatory life sentences, and the referendum is to “repeal” or “retain” that legislation.

Hence, to abolish the death penalty, voters must select “retain.” The state attorney general, and election officials, declined to challenge the confusing arrangement, instead suggesting that Nebraskans are smart enough to figure the whole thing out.

(1) Robert Napolitan, 34, was arrested in Taylor, Pennsylvania, in September and charged with theft of a drum containing 300,000 pennies from his employer, Pyne Freight Lines. That steel drum weighs several tons and, of course, netted Napolitan only $3,000. (By contrast, in New York City’s Diamond District in September, a brazen thief made off with a 5-gallon drum containing 86 pounds of gold flakes, valued at more than $1 million, and is still at large.) (2) According to a High Point, North Carolina, TV report, Larry Hall of Randolph County took seven-plus weeks out of his life recently and glued pennies to cover (except for windows and chrome) his 2000 Chevrolet Blazer (a total of 51,300 coins).

The 1,496-page German novel Bot-

tom’s Dream, translated into (broken) English, more than twice as long as War and Peace, recently reached U.S. bookstores as a 13-pound behemoth, bound with a 14-inch spine that, based on a September Wall Street Journal description, will almost surely go unread. The story follows two translators and their teenage daughter over a single day as they try to interpret the works of Edgar Allen Poe, making for slow going for anyone not already conversant with Poe.

Latest religious messages

In 2014, British entrepreneur Azad Chaiwala, 33, created the matchmaking service Second Wife because, just as men have trouble finding that special person, some Mormons, Muslims and others have at least as much trouble finding that special additional person. (Most clients, he said, are in the United States and the United Kingdom, though bigamy is illegal in both places.)
