Has pot’s time come in NH?
Soon, New Hampshire will be surrounded by legal weed. Vermont, Maine, Canada and Massachusetts are all on a short path to legalize recreational marijuana use and create legal marijuana marketplaces. New Hampshire recently decriminalized marijuana possession. Folks caught with less than ¼ ounce can be fined $100. Penalties go up from there for multiple offenses and larger quantities. It is still a felony to sell the stuff. Regardless of my personal opinion about marijuana, New Hampshire is fighting a losing battle and one that goes against what made New Hampshire an attractive place to do business. New Hampshire has long provided cheap booze, beer, cigarettes and fireworks to people from our neighboring states. Part of the reason we don’t have a sales tax is to encourage cross-border shopping in New Hampshire. This time around New Hampshire residents will be crossing the border to buy pot in Maine or Massachusetts. And it’s not as though pot usage is a niche market in New Hampshire. Surveys put the percentage of adults who use on a regular basis at 17 percent in New Hampshire. This puts our state in the top 10 states for usage. Massachusetts, Vermont, Maine and Rhode Island have even more (not surprisingly I suppose). New Hampshire has an opportunity to undercut (as is our strategy with booze and cigarettes) our neighboring states to offer legal marijuana at a lower price to pull even more cross-border shoppers into New Hampshire. A majority of New Hampshire residents support legalization, so what’s the problem? There seems to be, understandably, a real discomfort with marijuana at the highest levels of New Hampshire government, from our elected officials to police to top administrators. It’s a view I share. I’m worried that kids will think it’s OK to use marijuana (many already do). But is prohibilition — given that it will be legal across the region — really going to help keep it out of kids’ hands? It hasn’t so far. The horse, at this point, is already out of the barn. Because every single state surrounding us is legalizing marijuana, our residents will have easy access to it (apparently 17 percent already do). At this point, we’re kind of like the only dry county in a wet state. Access to weed is already easy and it will get only easier. So does it really makes sense to be the only “dry” state in the region that doesn’t allow for legal and regulated recreational sale and or growing of marijuana? Or is it wiser (even for just economic reasons) to join the crowd?

NEWS & NOTES
Medicaid
Gov. Chris Sununu signed SB 313 to extend New Hampshire’s expanded Medicaid program for an additional five years, the AP reported. The plan, which uses Medicaid funds to purchase private health plans for roughly 50,000 lowincome residents, was set to expire this year. The new bill adopts a managed care model and uses 5 percent of revenues from the state’s liquor and wine outlets to compensate for diminished federal funding. According to Governing Magazine, a national monthly publication on state and local government, the state will also seek a waiver from the Trump administration to institute a new work requirement, which mandates able-bodied participants in the Medicaid program either work, seek work or be engaged in more schooling or job training. Dawn McKinney, policy director for New Hampshire Legal Assistance, released a memo stating that “work requirements do little or nothing to increase stable, long-term employment...” McKinney noted that 65 percent of the participants in the Medicaid program are employed, and 77 percent come from working households.
Sales taxes
Gov. Chris Sununu announced he would ask the Executive Council to approve a special legislative session to address the Supreme Court’s decision on South Dakota v. Wayfair. The court ruling means that even businesses based in salestax-free states like New Hampshire could be on the hook to collect taxes from customers who reside in states with a sales tax. In a statement, the governor’s office said it is working with legislative leadership
HIPPO | JULY 5 - 11, 2018 | PAGE 4
and the Attorney General’s office to craft legislation and will “erect every possible and constitutionally permissible legal and procedural hurdle to prevent other states from forcing our businesses to collect sales and use taxes.” These measures include requiring out-of-state taxing authorities to coordinate with the New Hampshire Department of Justice and meet “strict requirements,” as well as establishing a “safe harbor” for small businesses in New Hampshire. Senate President Chuck Morse (R-Salem) and House Speaker Gene Chandler (R-Bartlett) also announced that both chambers would form a task force to review potential legislation to address the court’s decision
Amazon deal
Amazon purchased online pharmacy startup PillPack in Manchester, according to Reuters. While neither company disclosed a price tag for the transaction, Bloomberg reported that Amazon paid roughly $1 billion in cash, citing a source familiar with the deal. PillPack has operations nationwide, with a primary pharmacy in Manchester and business operations based in Somerville, Mass. The company delivers pre-sorted prescription drugs and other services to individuals. Market projections suggest the combination of PillPack’s services with Amazon’s business infrastructure will have consequences for traditional pharmacies and drug suppliers.
School safety
The Governor’s School Safety Preparedness Taskforce completed its final report, according to a news release. The report comes
after more than 1,000 hours of research and discussion of school safety and security issues and best practices. It identifies 59 taskforce recommendations to establish safety preparedness initiatives, including a 24-hour anonymous tip line for students, teachers and parents; a resource center for schools; a school-based “See Something Say Something” campaign; and expanding mental health resources.
The New Hampshire Department of Education announced that Stephanie Gleeson, a math teacher at Moultonborough Central School, received a Presidential Award for Excellence in Mathematics and Science Teaching. The award is given by CONCORD the National Science Foundation and is the nation’s highest honor given to teachers of science, technology, engineering and mathematics. Hooksett
GOP chair resigns
Jeanie Forrester abruptly resigned as chairwoman of the New Hampshire Republican Party, The Concord Monitor reported. Forrester submitted her resignation to the GOP’s state committee June 22, announcing a week later that she would take a position in local government. Vice-chair Wayne MacDonald replaced Forrester as head of the state party. Previously a state senator from Meredith for six years, Forrester lost the 2016 Republican nomination to Gov. Chris Sununu, who appointed her as party chair after his election.
GAMBLING FOR CHARITY
AARP New Hampshire announced that Goffstown and Portsmouth are the first New Hampshire communities to join the AARP Network of Age-Friendly States and Communities. Participating communities receive guidance and resources on how to create walkable streets, better housing and transportation options, access to various services and opportunities for residents to participate in civic and community activities.

Gov. Chris Sununu signed HB 169 to increase how much gamblers can wager for charity in New Hampshire, according to a news release from the New Hampshire Charitable Gaming Operators Association. The bill raises the bet limit at charity gambling rooms from $4 to $10. According to the release, the new $10 cap could generate an additional $2.5 million for local charities and $1 million in state tax revenue annually.

Hassan said Marriott immediately accepted responsibility for her behavior and is now facing consequences.

Suicide rates have risen in all but one state over the last 15 years, with New Hampshire’s rate showing one of the highest increases in the country. In response, New Hampshire nonprofits and government agencies have been exploring ways of increasing access to resources and removing stigma around mental illness in the Granite State.
The data
According to a report from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, suicide rates rose by between 5.9 and 57.6 percent in every state but Nevada from 1999 to 2016, including a 48.3-percent increase in New Hampshire. This ranked the Granite State third on the list in terms of rate increases in this time frame, behind North Dakota at 57.6 percent and Vermont at 48.6 percent. Nationally, suicide is now the 10th leading cause of death in the U.S. according to the CDC, with 44,193 deaths annually. The CDC report is in line with annual suicide deaths recorded by the New Hampshire Office of the Chief Medical Examiner. Between 2008 and 2017, the office reported a 45-percent increase in deaths by suicide in New Hampshire, increasing from 182 to 264 deaths annually in this time frame. “We were certainly aware that rates are going up in New Hampshire and nationally, but I think it’s fair to say for us in the suicide prevention community, the report was very difficult,” said Ken Norton, executive director of NAMI New Hampshire in Concord, a chapter of the National Alliance On Mental Illness. “Every suicide is a tragedy, and 45,000 a year in the U.S. is horrible.”
Suicide is preventable, but part of that is doing a better job of recognizing it.
Reducing stigma
120099
said. “All of us in the community can create better protective environments where there’s less stigma and help create connections in the community.” Addressing the stigma around mental health is key, according to Norton. “Suicide is preventable, but part of that is doing a better job of recognizing it, and as a country, we’re not responding the way we should,” said Norton. “If you ask the average person on the street, they can tell you the warning signs of a heart attack. But they might not be able to do that for suicide, and more importantly, when they see those warning signs, they don’t feel comfortable intervening.” While Norton noted that suicide is a complex probKEN NORTON lem with no simple solution, he highlighted a lack of funding as a key area of improvement. According to the most recent data available from the Kaiser Family Foundation, New Hampshire spent $9,589 per capita on health care overall in 2014 but only $138.40 per capita on mental health in 2013. “As a country, we put very little funding into research on suicide prevention and mental illness compared to other leading causes of death,” said Norton.
Preventing suicide involves everyone in the community, says Tricia Tilley, deputy director of the New Hampshire Division of Public Health Services. “There are roles for the government and community organizations, as well as roles for individuals to help support friends, families and neighbors,” Tilley

He added that mortality rates for almost all other leading causes of death are declining while suicide rates have been increasing. “We need to be looking at suicide as the public health issue that it is and fund services and research accordingly,” he said.
Integrated care
While changing cultures can be challenging, Tilley said, New Hampshire health care providers have started chipping away at the stigma around mental health by increasing access to resources and pursuing protective policies. This includes a trend among New Hampshire health providers to offer integrated health care, a system that treats mental and physical problems simultaneously. Tilley said individuals are more likely to seek mental health care if there’s a connection between their primary care provider and onsite behavioral health professionals. “People might not be seeking mental health care, but they might be seeking care at an acute facility, which is why it’s really incumbent on [primary care providers] to screen patients and make sure there’s a warm handoff to mental health providers,” said Tilley. “We’re seeing behavioral health services embedded right in community health centers, which allows providers to help patients build trust and ensure that connection is made. If you’re struggling with mental health and someone just hands you a phone number, it can be challenging to seek treatment on your own.”
10-year plan
On the state level, Tilley said the Department of Health and Human Services has been tracking data on suicides in New Hampshire to understand the trends and see what the agency can do to address the problem. The department is working with health care providers to draft a 10-year
mental health plan, which will include input from health care providers, survivors of suicide and families of suicide victims to identify shortfalls and gaps in the state’s mental health system. The report is supported by the state legislature and the governor’s office and will be completed by the end of the year, according to Tilley. In 2008, the New Hampshire legislature passed a law establishing the New Hampshire Suicide Prevention Council to study ways the state could reduce suicide and provide resources to at-risk individuals. Members include legislators, law enforcement, government officials and health care providers. Norton and Tilley have both served on the council since it was founded. The council published the New Hampshire Suicide Prevention Plan (2017-2020) in February 2016, which encouraged public-private partnerships and education on identifying risk factors for suicide and ways for individuals to assist those in need. This includes programs like Connect, developed by NAMI NH, which was recognized by the National Alliance for Suicide Prevention as a best practice model for suicide prevention training. The program offers customized classes focused on teaching prevention, intervention and postvention tactics for assisting people at risk of suicide.

How to help Warning signs The more signs a person shows, the greater the risk. Warning signs are associated with suicide but may not be what causes a suicide. Visit naminh.org. • Talking about wanting to die • Looking for a way to kill oneself • Talking about feeling hopeless or having no purpose • Talking about feeling trapped or in unbearable pain • Talking about being a burden to others • Increasing the use of alcohol or drugs • Acting anxious, agitated or recklessly • Sleeping too little or too much • Withdrawing or feeling isolated • Showing rage or talking about seeking revenge • Displaying extreme mood swings If someone you know exhibits warning signs of suicide: • Do not leave the person alone • Remove any firearms, alcohol, drugs or sharp objects that could be used in a suicide attempt • Call the U.S. National Suicide Prevention Lifeline at 800-273-TALK (8255) • Take the person to an emergency room or seek help from a medical or mental health professional

Without giving too much away, what was it like competing? How did you land a spot on the show? I can’t tell you how I did, but going into it, I felt very ready and prepared. I train in jiu jitsu and Cross Fit and I do gymnastics and parkour with my kids. I’m very fit and active and I walked in feeling ready. Seeing people there, there are people that train full time specifically in ninja training. There were people that owned ninja gyms, or their full time [job] was training people in ninja gyms. Walking in, I had minimal training in what [American Ninja Warrior’s] obstacle course scenario would be … so that made it slightly intimidating. … Being such a competitive atmosphere, you’d think everyone was out for themselves. It was completely opposite of that. My first night there in Minneapolis … I was eating alone at a restaurant [and] there was a table of 12 other competitors who invited me over. I made some friends afterward and we’re still in touch. It was the same way throughout.

You used your appearance on the show as an opportunity to raise awareness and money for New Hampshire foster families. Why did you choose this cause, and how Craig Stowell. has the response been so far? A very close family member is a single foster parent. They took it upon themselves to foster a baby and now they’re fostering to adopt them. [The child] had their first birthday with us, and now they have cousins, grandparents and aunts and uncles. It was just such a magical process. Right before I got on the show, this family member received a call for placement with another foster child. Their goal is to provide a better life for these kids, but there was no one there to buy them a nursery or a swing or pay for gymnastics classes. This person is a single parent, and they’re paying for it all out of pocket. So I asked them if they’d want to do a GoFundMe to help out local foster parents. I made the page and a video and got several thousand views in one day. The goal started at $500 on the first day, and we went over that in the first few hours. We raised the amount and it just kept climbing. One person donated $1,000. We raised over $6,000 in over a week, and we’re going to [buy] gift cards, clothing, diapers, household items and other essentials. The GoFundMe page is still open for anyone that wants to help out. The main reason I talked about it and made it loud is we never talk about it. We talk a lot about the opioid crisis, but we never hear about what happens to the kids in those situations.
Do you do any other competitions? I do a lot of jiu jitsu competitions, and my wife and I do Spartan Races and Tough Mudders a few times a year. I made a lot of connections out in Minneapolis [at American What do you do when you’re not training Ninja Warrior], so I’ll for sure be reaching out or competing? for Ninja vs. Ninja [an upcoming Ninja Warrior I own [Flying Wheels], a car dealership competition]. I have full intention of continu- and repair shop in Danville. I have a race car, ing this venture and furthering my ninja career. and when my family I can find time for it, we make a weekend or at least a day out of going to [New Hampshire Motor Speedway What are you into right now? in Loudon]. … We camp out a lot up there as well. We actually did my son’s birthday party American Ninja Warrior has completely there, invited all his friends and their fathers consumed me and my family. … We just can’t wait to get out to more ninja gyms for a ride along in the car. and train even harder. — Scott Murphy
NEWS & NOTES
QUALITY OF LIFE INDEX Child well-being New Hampshire ranked first in the U.S. for overall child wellbeing, according to the 2018 Kids Count report released by the Annie E. Casey Foundation. The annual study ranks states based on 16 indicators across four categories, including health, education, economic well-being and family and community. QOL Score: +1 Comment: The Granite State earned a top four spot in each of these four categories. The foundation ranked New Hampshire second in health, second in family and community, third in economic well-being and fourth in education.
Drought conditions Despite heavy rain last week, the U.S. Drought Monitor reports that all of New Hampshire has been categorized as “abnormally dry” over the past several weeks, and roughly 45 percent of the state is experiencing “moderate drought” conditions. Over the last 60 days, the majority of the state has received approximately 50 percent of its expected precipitation. QOL Score: -1 Comment: The New Hampshire Department of Environmental Services released a statement urging the public to limit outdoor water use, including refraining from landscape watering and limiting any watering to between 7 p.m. and 8 a.m. The department also asked residents to stop power washing, washing cars and washing down large surfaces like driveways and sidewalks.

Thanks to the extended NBA playoff season, the baseball season never got off the back burner in May or June. So before I knew it, it was July 1 when the Red Sox started getting full attention. The good news is that with a battle for first going on in the Bronx it finally did feel like baseball season last weekend. That’s even with all three games being competitive duds and my head close to exploding from incessant broadcast babbling from Tom (I swallowed a baseball dictionary) Verducci on the Fox broadcast Saturday and ESPN’s epically bad trio on Sunday. At least Saturday had some big moments with Chris Sale pitching a brilliant game as Rafael Devers went 5-5 with a grand slam. The weekend also saw them play Game 81, which means half the season is over. So it’s time to look at some of the interesting things that happened in the Red Sox’ under-the-radar first half of the year. The American League has three teams on pace to win at least 105 games, which has never been done in the same league. The last time even one team won 105 was the 2004 Cardinals, who, as Red Sox Nation knows, made that season historic for another reason. Incredibly, the last time the Red Sox even won 100 was a how-can-that-be 72 years ago in 1946. That’s so hard to believe. Thus I think we’re in store for an extraordinary second half. So kudos to the powers that be for having the Yanks and Sox conclude the year facing each other six games over the final 12 days, including three at Fenway the final weekend with the AL East and banishment to a scary Wild Card play-in game on the line. Injuries always hurt. But when they happen during an absolutely surreal start like
Mookie Betts was having, it’s the worst. He hasn’t been the same since he came back, and it’s derailed a possible historic season in the making. I said over the winter there was a cheaper alternative for needed power in both the cost of prospects and financial impact than taking on Giancarlo Stanton as Miami looked to shed the 10 years left on his onerous contract. J.D. Martinez was the solution. For less money per year in a fiveyear contract and no prospects surrendered, the Sox got the MLB leader in homers (25) and RBI (67) at mid-year. In case you’re interested, Martinez has a chance to join Jimmie Foxx and David Ortiz as the only Red Sox players to hit 50 or more homers. In 1938 and 2006 respectively each hit “only” 22 by June 30. Foxx incredibly had only one in April and hit his 50 during the 154-game schedule, while Ortiz’s team record 54 came in 162 games. Five Things About The Yanks: (1) Giancarlo Stanton and Aaron Judge are both on pace to strike out over 200 times. (2) They have seven guys on pace to hit 20 homers and could have five who hit 30. Neither has ever happened before. (3) Strangely, with all those homers only Judge is on pace to knock in 100. (4) Given their grand history it’s saying something to think Didi Gregorius and Gleyber Torres have a chance to be the Yanks’ best double-play combo ever. (5) Sonny Gray is not a prime-time pitcher. It figures, the day Sale finally gets real run support he doesn’t need it as Gray was scared stiff in Saturday’s 11-0 whitewash. What I like about Sale is he just says “I need to pitch better” after losses with little run support. He’s right, because as well as he pitched in those games, the other guys pitched better. So his bad luck is continually running into hot pitchers, not, as the media regularly whines, he deserves to get more runs. That’s not how it works. You win when you pitch better than the other
guy, whether the score is 1-0, 7-5 or 11-0. Incidentally, if Sale could somehow survive with the same strikeouts-to-innings pitched ratio he has this year while throwing the same 335 innings Sandy Koufax did when he struck out 382 batters in 1965, he’d finish with 473. That’s some shaky resume for the prospect the Sox got for sending failed reliever Roenis Elias back to Seattle. True, Eric Filia is a .343 lifetime hitter in three minor-league seasons and was hitting .426 in AA at the time of the trade. But he’s coming off a 50-game suspension for a second positive PED test. He also missed his entire 2015 UCLA season for, according to the Boston Globe (via the UCLA Bruin), allegedly “plagiarizing part of a philosophy paper.” And during his academic suspension for that offense he was a butler at the Playboy mansion! Time to fish or cut bait on Blake Swihart. Either face a revolt from the pitchers by moving on from Sandy Leon to make him the backup catcher, or move him. As its 242nd birthday arrived, the three most predictable things in America were (1) No matter how far back he finishes, ESPN will still lead every golf story with what Tiger Woods did, (2) When the sun rises each day the president will already have slimed at least one person, thing or country in a nasty tweet, and (3) If it’s a big game David Price will spit the bit, as he did again by giving up five homers and eight runs in a pathetic 3.1-inning stint in Sunday’s 11-1 loss to the Yanks. If only Price had the president’s chutzpah he might earn his money. Finally, don’t want to get you all worked up but if the Sox wind up as the wild card and Price gets that start Red Sox Nation is going to resemble the climactic scene in Titanic when people are leaping into the ice cold water from atop the ship right before the boat makes its final plunge.

Duval leads West win
The Big Story: Behind UNH-bound Andrew Duval’s game-winning seven-yard TD run with 4:28 left, the West All-Stars took the annual CHaD All-Star Football game 24-20 on Saturday at UNH’s Cowell Stadium in Durham. That put an exclamation point on the Goffstown allpurpose back’s big day that saw him rack up 181 total yards. MVP honors, however, went to Hanover punter and kicker Moises Celaya after he kicked a 33-yard field goal, going 3-3 on extra points, averaging 53.8 yards on four punts, two of which pinned the East inside their own five-yard line. But the day’s best news was that a tick over $270,000 was raised for Children’s Hospital at Dartmouth by the annual affair.

Fabulous
Frappe IN PRAISE OF THE ICE CREAMY TREAT
By Matt Ingersoll
mingersoll@hippopress.com
A cold blended drink with either milk or iced milk, ice cream and syrup is called a milkshake virtually anywhere in the country you go outside of New England. But up here — as the family of Roni Vetter of Jake’s Old Fashioned Ice Cream & Bakery in Nashua quickly came to realize — that drink is known as a frappe, while milkshakes are just blended milk and syrup. “My family hails from California. They moved east after I was born and I remember coming to the ice cream stand with my parents and they’d see both frappes and milkshakes [on the menu] and didn’t know what the difference was,” Vetter said. “They’d order a milkshake and essentially receive flavored milk. They didn’t understand why there wasn’t any ice cream in there. It was so foreign to them.” But the discrepancy isn’t simply between frappes and milkshakes. There are extra-thick frappes, malted frappes, cabinets and even freezes, which often blend ice cream (or, alternatively, sorbet or sherbet) with soda. Local ice cream makers and shop owners discuss these differences and give tips on some of the tastiest flavor combinations for frappes. HIPPO | JULY 5 - 11, 2018 | PAGE 12
Frappes versus milkshakes
By definition, a frappe is ice cream, milk and syrup blended together, according to Chris Ordway, owner of Hayward’s Homemade Ice Cream in Nashua. “You have a milkshake, which is very light and very fluffy, because it’s just milk and syrup blended. … Then you have the frappe, which has the milk and syrup but then the ice cream that makes it a lot creamier and thicker,” he said. “You can do any flavor of ice cream you want for frappes, whereas with milkshakes you’re limited only to what flavors of syrup you have.” Tom Arnold, owner of Arnie’s Place in Concord, said the confusion often comes in when people think they are ordering milkshakes similar to those offered at most fast-food restaurant chains. “You know, nowadays, when somebody comes in and says they want a milkshake, they are either asking for what we’d call a frappe, or for something like you would get at McDonald’s [which is] a thick shake with soft-serve, milk and syrup,” he said. “So now when somebody orders one, we’ll ask them ‘hard ice cream or soft-serve?’” Most local ice cream shops will make their frappes by scooping your choice of ice cream into a steel cup, followed by
adding a few pumps of syrup and placing the cup underneath an electric mixer. Milk is often added periodically as the ice cream and syrup are mixed before the finished product is poured into your cup and ready to serve. Frappes that are ordered as “extra thick” often mean that more ice cream is added to the drink than usual, according to Vetter. Other variations you might encounter on menus are malted frappes, which JoAnn Costa of Axel’s Food and Ice Cream in Merrimack said will contain powdered malted milk in addition to the milk that already goes in. “That just gives it a different flavor, almost like a malted milk ball,” she said.
What’s in a name?
The word “frappe” is, according to the Merriam-Webster Dictionary, of French origin and derived from the word “frapper,” meaning “to strike” or “to hit.” Janice Brown, a New Hampshire history blogger and editor of the Cow Hampshire blog, said the term for a cold drink goes back to at least 1851 in Philadelphia, when James Woods Parkinson invented the Champagne frappé à la glace, which translates literally to Champagne “hits the ice.” But exactly when or how the word became widely adopted in New England to mean a blended ice cream drink — absent its original French pronunci14
Make your own frappes The simple ingredients of ice cream, milk and syrup make the frappe an easy drink to make at home — all you need is a blender. But the amount of each that you add is key to the overall flavor and texture, according to Chris Ordway, owner of Hayward’s Homemade Ice Cream in Nashua. “You have to have the milk-to-ice cream ratio just right in order to get the thickness you want,” he said, “and then syrup is another thing, just making sure the right flavor of syrup goes with the right flavor of ice cream.” Depending on how thick you want the
frappe to be, Ordway recommends at least a half a cup of milk per three or four scoops of ice cream to prevent it from turning out too watery. A thicker frappe will usually mean more scoops of ice cream, according to Roni Vetter of Jake’s Old Fashioned Ice Cream & Bakery in Nashua. “I always did more of like a two-to-one ratio of ice cream to milk, covering the height of the ice cream with it and then equating each pump of syrup to a tablespoon,” she said.

ation (“frap-AY”) — is unknown. “It’s the same thing with jimmies. I mean, they are ‘sprinkles’ everywhere else except here in New England,” Ordway said. “A frappe is just a term that we’ve coined.” The terms “frappe” and “milkshake” may even differ depending on where you go within New England, according to Costa. Although it’s much less common, some ice cream shops in Rhode Island will list frappes on their menus as “cabinets,” an origin she said is unclear but possibly attributed to where you would keep the blender used to make the drink — the kitchen cabinet.

Whatever you call them, Ordway said, frappes have several unique features that speak to their overall popularity. “It gives you your ice cream with multiple options,” he said. “You’re
able to hold your ice cream in your hand, but also put it in your car, set it down or take the lid off if you want to do it that way.” Vetter said frappes provide not only a convenience for ice cream lovers, but also an alternative meal option to enjoy hand in hand with your lunch. “If you’re on the go, it’s certainly easier to have a frappe rather than a cone or a dish. The ice cream is not going to drip down your hand,” she said. “The other thing too is that most ice cream stands will offer some sort of meal as well as ice cream, like maybe a chili and cheese hot dog and a frappe with it … [so] you can enjoy lunch and dessert at the same time, pretty much.” The large number of ice cream flavors available at most ice cream shops allows for all kinds of unique flavor combinations for frappes, Ordway said. “The most popular kind of frappes we make will have vanilla or coffee

ice creams,” he said. “Black and white frappes are very popular, [which is] chocolate syrup with vanilla ice cream. Mocha frappes with chocolate syrup and coffee ice cream are also really popular. … But we make all kinds of different combinations. You can tell us flat out whatever you want and we’ll make it.” More innovative flavor pairings for frappes, Ordway said, may include mint chip, mint Oreo, cookie dough, black raspberry or cherry vanilla.
But Vetter said certain flavors of ice cream and syrup definitely go together better than others. “The syrup is used as a base to barely enhance the flavor, so that you’re not tasting just syrup rather than the ice cream,” she said. “Chocolate and black raspberry go well together. Certainly anything peanut butter with vanilla and chocolate, [or] mint and chocolate. Occasionally you’ll see oddball flavors like coffee and black raspberry. Everybody has a preference.”

Freezes While Axel’s Food and Ice Cream offers an orange freeze made with its orange sherbet — made to taste like a creamsicle, according to owner JoAnn Costa — both its pineapple and strawberry freeze options are made with a blend of vanilla soft-serve and each respective fruit juice. “A freeze is really thick,” Costa said. “It should be made with sorbet or sherbet or soft-serve because they hold their consistency better [with the soda or juice] than regular ice cream. … Orange freezes are particularly very popular when it’s hot out. They’re almost like a slushie kind of thing and are just a really nice thirst-quencher.”

As a dairy-free alternative to frappes, some ice cream shops and restaurants will mix your choice of flavor of sorbet or sherbet with soda, soda water or juice to create what’s called a freeze. “Freezes are a hidden treat,” said Tom Arnold, owner of Arnie’s Place in Concord, which can make orange, lemon or raspberry freezes. “A lot of people don’t know what a freeze is, but once you have one you are hooked.” But you can also order freezes at other places with ice cream. Carol FrekeyHarkness, owner of Frekey’s Dairy Freeze in Chichester and Concord, said their orange freezes are made with orange soda and either hard or soft-serve ice cream.

ARTS Artistic drive
Exhibit features narrative realism paintings with vehicle imagery By Angie Sykeny
asykeny@hippopress.com
Rusty machinery, vintage toys and Greek mythology provide the inspiration for Milford artist William Turner’s oil paintings, on display this month at the Nashua Public Library. Turner has always wanted to be an artist, but, he says, growing up with undiagnosed dyslexia made it impossible for him to earn the grades required to get into art school. Instead, he enlisted in the military, then found work in the auto body restoration business, which he did for 30 years. It wasn’t until his “mid-life crisis,” he said, that he became determined to pursue his lifelong dream. “Everyone, when they turn 50, reflects back on their life, and I decided that I wanted to be an artist, not just as a hobby, but on full-time basis,” he said. “Painting seemed like a nicer way to leave my legacy behind.” He went on to earn BFA and MFA degrees in visual arts and painting from the New Hampshire Institute of Art. It was during his studies there that he discovered his passion for stories, particularly the stories of Greek and Roman mythology and folklore. In his art, he set out to tell those stories, with imagery inspired by his past work with automobiles.

“I fell in love with the character of vintage and rusty vehicles, and as I started painting, I realized they have a lot of character,” he said. “The headlights look like eyes, the grills look like a nose, and the bumper looks like a mouth, so I brought them in as characters in my stories and used them as substitutes for humans.” He has portrayed mythology characters such as the Graeae, Pegasus, Venus Callipyge and the cyclops, all with images of different kinds of vehicles. Turner has also reimagined famous works of art: “The Scream,” in which the screaming figure is replaced by a car with its hood up, and “Hermes and the Infant Dionysus,” depicted by a large tractor truck

with a miniature replica sitting atop it. Recently, he’s been branching out, doing paintings with the same concept, but with vintage toys like M&M figurines and robots from the ’40s and ’50s instead of vehicles. “These aren’t paintings that you can do in a few days,” he said. “First, I have to find something that’s interesting, then, research it for a while to understand what it’s about so I can really draw attention to the story through these images that come into my head.” Turner incorporates many small, symbolic details into his paintings to add to their complexity and make the viewer think. “An average person looks at a painting for two or three seconds and moves on, but

my paintings have all kinds of hidden messages and eye candy that, I think, makes people look longer,” he said. “They see one thing, then, they have to look for something else, and two or three minutes go by before they move on to the next one. I enjoy putting a little added interest into it.” Turner considers his artistic style narrative realism, influenced by art from the Renaissance period. Though he has experimented with other styles, he said, nothing has given him the same satisfaction that realism does, especially in “that exciting moment where you realize you’ve captured the form.” “I think it stems from my childhood; being dyslexic, I was always told, ‘You’ll never get it right,’ and, I guess, with my art, I feel like I have to get it exactly right and prove to myself that I can do it,” he said. “Hopefully, that shows other people with some kind of disability that there is hope, and that you can work through these things; you just have to find yourself.”

Jones’ approach to his teaching and his concerts is that music does not need to be simplified or “dumbed down” for kids to understand it. “Kids, especially young kids, pick up on so many things during a musical experience,” he said. “They’re very open and willing and excited to perform and enjoy interesting music, just like grownups do.”

Concord kids’ musician Aaron Jones, known by his stage name Mr. Aaron, goes a little more rock ’n’ roll with his latest album, MAXIMUM!, which he’ll perform at an album release party on Sunday, July 8, at the Capitol Center for the Arts in Concord. With backup from his band, Jones sings and performs on numerous instruments, including guitar, saxophone, ukulele, bass clarinet, harmonica and more. His first album, All My Friends Are Giants, was largely acoustic and had a folk-pop sound, but his new album goes in a different direction. “All the kids were asking for more rock ’n’ roll and electric guitar,” Jones said, “so it’s a little louder, a little more hip, and you can rock out more, but it’s still family oriented.” The title track is an “an anthem to being yourself to the fullest extent,” he said, and has some rock-rap elements similar to those of Beastie Boys or Red Hot Chili Peppers. Other tracks include an interactive song about things people do on a train (“The Train Song”) and funky number about dropping a pumpkin on your foot (“Dropped a Pumpkin”). At the album release party, Jones will perform music from both the new album and All My Friends Are Giants, which fea-
tures a ukulele tune about a wild tea party with giants (“All My Friends Are Giants”), sing-along crowd favorite “New Song (La La La!)” and an ode to traffic sounds (“Honk Honk”). He’ll also have his CDs for sale and will sign them after the show. Jones said his concerts are highly interactive and “like a big dance party.” “I’m always looking for ways to keep the kids engaged, whether it’s with waving and hand motions, sing-along parts, stomping or clapping the rhythm or just dancing,” he said. “It’s very energetic and a lot of fun.” Jones worked as a professional musician in New York City for nearly 10 years before moving to Concord with his family two years ago. He recorded All My Friends Are Giants in December 2016 at Rattlebox Studio, a recording studio he created in a rented space at the Concord

Believe it or not, I once ate my lawnmower. No, not the Briggs and Stratton kind. I had purchased a pair of Jacobs sheep to keep my lawn trim for a season. At the end of the season they were off to the butcher and came home freezer wrapped. It was an interesting experience, but not one I would recommend. These rascals didn’t do an even job of cutting the lawn, and loved to butt me when I entered their pen. To keep sheep as lawnmowers, I used a portable electric fence. It worked, but the sheep were always looking for trouble – they were teenage boy sheep, after all. They tried to (and did) reach through the fence to eat my flowers, get out of their enclosure, and trick me into thinking they were not interested in my trees and shrubs – only to attack them when I least expected it. What is it with our fascination with lawns? Historically, lawns were maintained largely by the landed gentry. Peasants had neither the time nor the land for cultivating lawns. Maybe we all, deep down, want to be part of the nobility. But I think we like lawns because they promote tranquility and they are, with the advent of mowers, the easiest part of our landscape to maintain. I am a minimalist when it comes to lawns. I don’t want a chemical-dependent lawn to fuss over. No fertilizers, fungicides, insecticides or moss killers for me. That said, there are things you can do to improve your lawn without too much trouble, and I think I have tried them all. Over-seeding is one way to help your lawn. If you have places where the lawn is thin, first put down half an inch of fine compost or top soil. You will have to purchase this, I suspect, as homemade compost usually contains lumps like egg shells and undigested orange peels. Many garden centers have nice compost for sale by the tractor scoop ready for your pick-up truck, and all have bagged compost. Fling compost over the lawn with a shovel, and spread it out with a lawn rake. Then apply lawn seed, and drag the lawn rake over the seed and compost, with the rake tines up, not down. The tines will mix the seeds and compost or soil.Where you have shady lawn, buy lawn seed for shady places. Watering is key. Seeds need moisture to germinate, and a hot sunny day will dry out seeds quickly. Some people like to spread a thin layer of straw over the seeded area to shade the seeds and minimize drying. At this time of year it will take about a week for grass to start growing (but much longer in the spring when the soil is cold.) Water every day

unless it rains. I generally plant when three days of rainy weather is forecast. What about fertilizer? Most states prohibit using phosphorous-containing fertilizers on lawns (to protect streams and ponds). On a bag of 5-10-5 fertilizer, for example, it’s the middle number (10). There are now special fertilizers for lawns, but if you are adding compost, it will help provide adequate nutrition for your lawn. Grass grows best when the soil is around neutral. For about $5 you can buy a soil pH test kit to see if yours is in the range of 6.0 to 7.0, which is ideal. The kits are easy to use: put some soil into a glass vial, add their magic powder, then add water. Shake, and the water will change color. You just decide which of the pictures on the kit best matches the color of your solution. They say to use distilled water, as it won’t affect the results. It’s available at the pharmacy. If your soil is acidic (technically below 7.0), you may want to add some limestone to the lawn. But don’t bother unless the soil is quite acidic, say in the 4.5 to 5.9 range. Read the directions on the bag, and add the appropriate amount. I just use a can and sprinkle it over small areas. Height of the grass is important to a lawn, too. I once got to interview Joe Mooney, the head groundskeeper at Fenway Park, home of my beloved Red Sox. He maintained the infield at a height of three quarters of an inch! Lawn that short stresses the plants, so he also had a dungeon under the stands full of chemical fertilizers and fungicides. The longer you keep the lawn, the more food a grass plant can make, so the healthier it will be. Cutting grass at three inches is good. Yes, shorter looks neater, perhaps, but taller grass will also help shade out annual weeds and crabgrass. What about those weeds? Does it really matter that you have some? People write to me all the time complaining about Creeping Charlie in their lawns. Charlie is like death and taxes, you can’t avoid him without killing everything else, including your lawn grasses. So ignore Creeping Charlie. I also ignore plantain, dandelions and other weeds. Read Henry’s blog at dailyuv.com/henryhomeyer.
INSIDE/OUTSIDE TREASURE HUNT
Dear Donna, How would I go about cleaning up an old painting? Not sure if there are folks out there that do it, or how much it would cost. Any help would be much appreciated. Beth from Brookline Dear Beth, First I think you need to determine whether the painting is a painting worth cleaning. Then I think I would make a decision to either send it out to have it professionally cleaned or maybe do it myself or live with it the way it is. What you know about the painting might help you determine the age, unless it was recently purchased. Then, bringing it to someone would help as well. If the painting is a valuable one then you should bring it to a professional. If not then I could suggest something to possibly clean and brighten it up. Just know that the process is a very slow one and takes patience. I did some research and found that now there are several more ways to help clean and brighten old paintings. I always used a mild soap and water and a cotton swab, going very slow in a penny-size area at a time. It generally works well. But now I see they have other ways as well, so maybe it’s a good thing to do some research online to

INSIDE/OUTSIDE CAR TALK
Starting problem likely has the easy solution of a loose cable Dear Car Talk: Buzz, our 2011 Toyota RAV4, let us down. After a 65th wedding anniversary celebration, Buzz refused to start. My favorite nephew popped the hood and By Ray Magliozzi said he would jumpstart Buzz. Alas, after three attempts, Buzz did nothing. My nephew then looked more carefully, popped open a small cover next to the battery, pulled a wrench from his toolbox ... smiled again and announced that he would restart the computer. It worked! He sent me on my 200-mile drive home with the wrench just in case! When I called the Toyota service department the next day, I was told that my nephew did the right thing. So I reset the clock and radio, and will mail the wrench back — after I purchase a replacement to carry in the glove box. The question: Is it normal for a car to act like this? Are there precautions I should take, other than purchasing my own wrench that fits? — Claire You should consider forcing your nephew into indentured servitude, Claire. Tell him if he plays his cards right, he might inherit a 2011 RAV4 someday. I’m actually confused by his use of the
phrase “restarting the computer.” But here’s what I’m guessing happened: The car wouldn’t start because there was a loose connection coming off the battery. There are two cables attached to the battery. One is a ground cable that goes to the chassis, and the other cable goes to the power distribution box. If either cable doesn’t have a good, tight connection, the battery’s power will be unable to get to the rest of the car. So a jump-start, which just boosts the battery, might not help either. So, what your favorite nephew probably did was remove the little black plastic cover on the battery terminal and tighten up the loose cable with his wrench. That reconnected the battery to the rest of the car, and everything worked fine. You had to reset your clock and radio presets because the battery had effectively been disconnected while you were boozing it up at the anniversary party, Claire. The connection simply may have shaken itself loose over the six years you’ve been driving the car. Or corrosion may have built up to the point that it was interfering in the transfer of electricity. Or maybe you had the battery changed at some point more recently, and the mechanic just didn’t tighten everything up correctly.
In any case, unless the terminals are badly corroded, I doubt you’ll need to perform the same procedure again anytime soon. But keep the wrench in your car anyway. . Dear Car Talk: I have a 2015 Kia Sportage with 25,000 miles on it that I purchased new. At about 15,000 miles, I noticed a slight ping when slowly climbing hills. I tried changing gas, to no avail. Then I noticed that when I parked the car on a slight hill, facing either up or down, I got a loud noise for about a second or two when I started the car. It sounds like the bearings are starving for oil. I made a recording of this and took it to the dealer. They said it’s a normal sound for newer vehicles. Pinging and bearing noise is the new normal? What’s the next stage of normal — oil leaks and blue smoke? What do you think? — Dennis That’s the old normal, Dennis. Cars shouldn’t ping at all these days. They all have knock sensors that automatically adjust the timing if you happen to get gasoline that has too low of an octane rating. So it’s possible you have a bad knock sensor. But that would trigger a check engine light, and you didn’t mention that. It also may be something other than
pinging that you’re hearing. Try putting a tank of the highest-octane fuel you can find in the car. If you still hear the noise at the same intensity, then it’s not pinging, it’s something else. At that point, your dealer will need to hear it to figure it out. It could be a loose heat shield, or a loose or broken exhaust manifold bolt. Or almost anything. As for the starting noises, car engines, especially smaller ones, do make more noise when they first start up these days, usually as the hydraulic lifters get pressurized. If it goes away in less than 15 seconds — which you say it does — I wouldn’t worry too much about it, as long as your oil level is correct. But in any case, it’s good that you reported it to the dealer, and that it’s noted on your repair order. That way, if it does get markedly worse over time, and something really is wrong, you’ll have a record that you complained about it while the car was under warranty. The other thing you can do is ask to drive a used, 2015 Sportage that the dealer has on the lot. See if it makes the same noises. The dealer is telling you that, essentially, “they all do that.” So drive another 2015 and see for yourself if they do. Visit Cartalk.com.

I’m a mental health counselor and expressive arts therapist. … I work a lot with trauma and recovery for people of all ages.

• Oysters galore: Enjoy Oysters on Elm on the Midtown Cafe patio outside the Beacon building (814 Elm St., Manchester) every Friday from 3:30 to 7:30 p.m., now through Aug. 31. The promotion is presented by the Red Arrow Diner and invites visitors to have the opportunity to have oysters on the half shell that will be fresh off the boat and available to order individually or by the half or full dozen. The weekly event is bring-your-ownbeverage and staff will be providing buckets and ice to keep your drinks cold. Visit midtowncafenh.com for more details. • Liquid Therapy on the way in Nashua: A new nano brewery is coming to the space of a former firehouse in Nashua. According to the New Hampshire Union Leader, the lease for Liquid Therapy was approved on June 26 at 14 Court St., which once housed the Court Street fire station but has sat vacant for several years. Owners Jason Palmer and Stanley Tremblay – “self-proclaimed brewery shrinks,” their website reads – have been working on bringing in the fermenters, keg washer and other necessary equipment to the space for the past couple of months. Liquid Therapy will become the first nano brewery in New Hampshire to have its own craft hard cider offerings, according to its website. Visit liquidtherapynh.com or find them on Facebook to follow updates on their progress. • Tucker’s coming to Merrimack: Popular local breakfast and lunch spot Tucker’s recently became the newest business to claim a spot in the new Merrimack 360 plaza at 360 Daniel Webster Highway, the restaurant announced on its Facebook 34

You don’t have to be Jewish to enjoy the homemade foods that will line the tables at Temple B’Nai Israel’s annual Jewish Food Festival. “Most of the people that we’ll see come actually are non-Jewish,” fundraiser committee chairman Stu Needleman said. “The amount of Jewish people in this part of the state isn’t very large, so a festival like this is unusual.” Now in its 21st year, the event will return to the temple grounds in Laconia on Sunday, July 8, from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. The event has grown over the years from a simple hot dog and rummage sale to a larger community effort offering brisket, corned beef, pastrami, blintzes, knishes, potato latkes and more. More than a dozen committee members work to prepare the foods using traditional recipes for many of the items sold, while the deli meats are brought up from Evan’s Deli, a New York-style delicatessen in Massachusetts. The deadline to fill out a pre-order form has passed, but take-out is available while supplies last. You can either order to eat onsite as a meal or order pre-packaged frozen foods to reheat at home. Marketing chairwoman Barbara Katz said one of the biggest draws of the festival is the sandwiches, which feature either corned beef, pastrami, tongue or homemade beef brisket cooked by church members and served on rye bread or a roll with coleslaw and a half sour pickle, also from Evan’s Deli. Other options will include blintzes (lightly fried crepes filled with cheese and topped with sour cream or berries); chopped her4.69”wide x 2.6” high ring or liver; and knishes flaky dough with HIPPO(a Horizontal 1/8 page either potato or ground beef fillings). Frozen meals are available for take-out as well, while the supplies last. They include potato latkes (fried potato “pancakes” usually
Vacation week!
This year’s festival also happens to fall one day after the city’s 125th anniversary parade. “We hope if people come see the parade then they’ll stick around on Sunday to come to our food festival,” Katz said. Laconia’s 125th anniversary extravaganza will include craft and food vendors, a beer and wine garden, live entertainment and more. It’s happening Saturday, July 7, starting with a community parade at 2 p.m. from Laconia High School (345 Union Ave.) to Opechee Park (915 N. Main St.). A party in the park will follow at 3 p.m., with music and community groups performing until 9:30 p.m. Hot air balloon rides will be held from 6 to 8 p.m. The evening will culminate with a fireworks display at 9:30 p.m. For a full schedule of activities, visit celebratelaconia.org. 21st annual Jewish Food Festival When: Sunday, July 8, 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. Where: Temple B’Nai Israel, 210 Court St., Laconia Cost: Free admission; foods priced per item Visit: tbinh.org

Desserts are also homemade and feature rugelach (a light cream cheese-based dough cut into triangles and filled with pecans, raisins and cinnamon) and strudel (a variation of rugelach but shaped like a jelly roll with a raspberry jam filling). Needleman said the festival’s fundraising committee took over the food preparation responsibilities just a few years ago, whereas before it was just one church member. “It’s the same recipes that we do, though we will tweak them here and there after we get some feedback and adjust some things,” he said. A selection of items donated by church members will be available for sale at what Temple B’Nai has dubbed the Nearly New Boutique.

A new fast-casual eatery coming to Bedford later this month will feature pasta as its centerpiece, inviting diners to make their own customizable meals using made-fromscratch ingredients. The concept at Table 8 Pasta — on track to open in the coming weeks in the adjoining space of the building that houses The Wine’ing Butcher — is simple. Choose your pasta, followed by your sauce and any addons that may include meats, vegetables and spices. Then there’s an option to have a salad or bread on the side. Every pasta, sauce, salad and dressing will be made in house, according to owner Mitch DeBonville, free of any preservatives or artificial flavoring. “What we’re trying to accomplish is to show people how pasta and sauces are really meant to be,” he said. “It doesn’t have to come out of a box that has been sitting on a shelf for weeks, and the sauce doesn’t have to come out of a jar. We’ve actually invested in an Italian pasta maker that will be visible to everyone who comes in. We won’t have any fryers, any microwaves or any freezers.” DeBonville took over the 2,600-squarefoot space of the former Royal Bouquet flower shop about three months ago and has been renovating it ever since, bringing in brand new kitchen equipment, tables, chairs and counter tops. Table 8 Pasta will have about a 40-seat dining capacity with take-out also available. Some of the pastas you will be able to choose will be a traditional spaghetti, campanelli, rigatoni, linguini or fusilli. Gluten-free and vegetarian pastas will be on the menu, too. For sauces, DeBonville is separating them into two categories: “traditional” and “specialty.” “Traditional sauces would be things like the marinara, the meatball sauce, you know, stuff that we all know,” he said. “Specialty sauces would be more like a puttanesca, or a basil-type pesto sauce. … We’ll also have our own Table 8 sauce, which will have mushrooms, garlic, cream and pancetta.” From there, people have the option to choose from more than a dozen add-ons to customize their pasta dish to how they like it. “We’ll have three different types of addons,” DeBonville said. “One is a protein, so grilled chicken, meatballs, pancetta, or anything that’s meat-based. Then we’ll have vegetables, so peppers, onions, broccoli, asparagus, things like that. And the third thing is like an ‘other,’ so maybe roasted garlic, or capers that get added to a sauce. … The base sauces are ready to go and then we kind of

add the ingredients you prefer, add the fresh pasta and [throw] all that together, and it’s made individually for you.” DeBonville said he expects a big part of his customer base will be those who place takeout orders. Additionally, call-in orders for larger pasta platters will likely be introduced within a week or two of the eatery’s opening date, he said. “We’re going to give people the ability to call in and order, say, a platter of spaghetti and meatballs for four,” he said, “or, you can order four individual meals if members of your family want different things.” DeBonville, who moved to Bedford with his family from Montreal about eight years ago, said the name ‘Table 8’ Pasta is an homage to his late father. “The eighth letter of the alphabet is H. My father’s name was Hubert, and he passed away when I was 16,” he said. “He was a lover of pasta. I can remember we had pasta three days a week, at least.” He said he is already looking into opening at least two other Table 8 locations in the Granite State in the next several months, noting that the fast-casual model is based on rapid growth, as opposed to an upscale fine dining Italian restaurant. “We don’t want to be perceived as just an Italian restaurant. Yes, we cook Italian food, but we’re a different type of place,” he said. “We don’t have, like, all these veal dishes or appetizers or anything. … The intent is to provide food made in a simple manner using the freshest possible ingredients, and served in a very casual, comfortable environment.” Table 8 Pasta An opening date is expected in the coming weeks.

Cheryl Holbert of Derry is the owner of Nomad Bakery (nomadbakery.com), a homestead baking business that she runs out of her kitchen specializing in artisan breads and organic ingredients. She formerly worked as an arts journalist in New Jersey and, upon her arrival to the Granite State, worked for arts outreach programs at the Currier Museum of Art in Manchester before starting Nomad Bakery about five years ago. Her products include wheat and rye sourdough breads, specialty breads like Parmesan ciabatta, barbari (Persian flatbread) and challah, a Jewish bread popular around the holidays. She appears at the Derry Homegrown Farm and Artisan Market every Wednesday at 3 p.m. at 1 West Broadway in Derry. Additionally, she teaches bread baking classes every month and her breads can be found at Benedikt Farm in Goffstown, Restoration Cafe in Manchester, A Market Natural Foods in Manchester, The Grind Rail Trail Cafe in Derry and the Windham Junction Kitchen and Country Store.

Slaw mix
Bring some delicious fun pastries they won’t forget!
Every once in a while, I’ll discover a product that makes my life easier. My favorites recently are liquid stevia, Norwex window cloths, Trader Joe’s cauliflower gnocchi and ... a bag of slaw mix. Random, right? Slaw mix is currently rocking my world for so many reasons. For one, all the work is done for you. Just say no to chopping and prepping and say yes to ease. Before about two weeks ago, I never considered purchasing slaw mix because I actually don’t really like cole slaw.

Stir Fry with Cabbage
First of all, what’s in slaw mix? Slaw mix consists of mostly cabbage with some shredded carrots often added. It’s crunchy, ridiculously healthy and surprisingly versatile. Cabbage contains lots of vitamins C and K and carrots are high in beta carotene. It’s filling and fiber-packed without unnecessary calories. I’ve been finding it to be the perfect non-carb pairing with two of my favorite meals. — Allison Willson Dudas

Summer is in full swing and we are celebrating July 4 this week, which means time with family, fireworks and cold beverages. One of my favorite summer drinks is sangria, because it can be red or white and made with a variety of ingredients to your own liking. Typically you’ll start with a fruity wine like merlot, or a drier white wine like pinot grigio, and add from there. For a different option as a base, you could use a fruit wine instead. Several New Hampshire wineries make some great options, like LaBelle Winery’s cranberry or Zorvino Vineyard’s Skinny Guinea Red or Z Plum. When I make red sangria I like to use blackberry brandy, but you can also use an orange liqueur like Grand Marnier. For white I like to use peach schnapps and then add other ingredients like lemonade, seltzer or other fruit juice. From there you can add your favorite vodka or rum. Make the sangria ahead of time by adding some sliced fruit and chilling it in the fridge for several hours. You can buy pre-made sangria in the bottle or box. Last summer I tried Franzia sangria in the box, and it was not my favorite. Yellow Tail sangria was another one that didn’t receive high marks from me; I purchased it because it was one of the only choices during a stop before a party. However, I have enjoyed Bandit sangria and Beso Del Sol Red, both of which can be found in local grocery stores. Both of these are smooth, fruity and refreshing. There are several other pre-made sangria options available at New Hampshire Liquor & Wine Outlets, made by several brands including Sutter Home, Barefoot Cellars, Flip Flop and more. The majority (if not all) are red sangria. Though whites do exist, red sangria is much more common, especially from the larger brands. I always like to make my own sangria, but sometimes time and ingredients are limited, so these are another great option. And sometimes a bottle or box can be much easier to transport during summer activities.

Plus, many of these boxes contain several liters, so they are great to share with a group at a party, and will last for a couple of weeks in the fridge. If you are looking for a slightly different (and Italian) twist on a white sangria recipe, try this one from Fabrizia: Combine 2 ounces dry white wine, 1 ounce Fabrizia Limoncello, 1/4 ounce raspberry vodka, simple syrup and lemon juice to taste. If you are looking for foods to pair with sangria, think Spanish, Tex-Mex or Thai dishes. Red sangria can stand up to the spiciness in dishes with chorizo, jalapeños, chipotle and even curry. Salsa and chips aren’t out either. White sangria pairs well with seafood, especially if you are using a drier, crisper white wine as the base. Finally, you can still enjoy cheese, crackers and even cured meats with sangria as well; just consider the flavors in the sangria. Try a variety and see what pairs best.

I hadn’t planned on making this week’s pair of reviews into an edgelord exercise; but after getting lured into my Haulix feed (it always feels like I haven’t seen it in like two years) by an emo band, voila, there it was, an EP from this Swedish doom metal quintet, with whom I’ve never been all that familiar despite the fact they’ve been nicking Black Sabbath since before you were born. Back in their late-1980s debut incarnation, they’d struck me as a mass of slowness with very little point, even if the fanzine writers of the underground scene thought they were awesome. Of course, Candlemass was competition for my old band, meaning I’m a locally famous jerk who should have been interviewed by Fritz on New Hampshire Chronicle years ago, which explains all that, and sorry, I can only change my tune so much as of this release, whose tuneage shows enthusiasm but the same old formlessness on the opening title track, like it was intended for use on a direct-to-video Corey Feldman movie about naked girl demons ‘n’ stuff. “Flowers of Deception” pickpockets Sabbath’s “In for the Kill”; “Dolls on a Wall” is early St. Vitus with a fake beard.

I’ve been interrogated before about my lack of fanboy obeisance at the mere mention of Miles Davis’ name. Fact is, when it comes to jazz, I’m more of a sax guy than a trumpet guy, thus Davis’ outings with Sonny Rollins always left me hoping for equal time, and besides, Rollins wrote all the good stuff to begin with. This debut effort from a 17-piece group of New York pros is all about David, specifically the electric period, that is to say the stuff Davis was doing from 1969 to 1972, when Led Zeppelin was taking over the entire music world. The Davis albums covered here – Bitches Brew, Jack Johnson and On the Corner – weren’t my thing at all really, too asphalt-y, maybe a little too stoned if you want specifics. However. Pillow and his homies have rendered something awesome here, interpretations that leave out the electric part (there’s a Fender Rhodes in here, which is always OK) in order to focus instead on engraving the music in iron through the use of multiple organic instruments. It’s truly an homage, not a bunch of covers that miss the point of David’s progressive nature. A+ — Eric W. Saeger
PLAYLIST A seriously abridged compendium of recent and future CD releases • Happy Fourth of July week! Know what I can’t stand, is when a holiday falls on a Wednesday, don’t you? Heh, you think that’s bad, I’m dealing with a “Christmas in July” situation here, because no bands put out albums for Fourth of July week, except of course metal bands, but I’m not stuck with that yet. There are a few things being released on July 6, like the new album Outlaws ‘Til The End, Vol. 1, from DevilDriver! Let’s go look! Oh no, psych, they got me, it IS a metal band! They even tricked my Secret Music Critic Information Place, AllMusic.com, and told them Johnny Cash was involved, but it’s really just Johnny’s son, sitting around with this self-described “California Groove Machine” of black metal-sounding craziness. There are covers, including an actual Outlaws song (you guessed it, it’s the only one anyone’s ever heard of, “Ghost Riders in the Sky” except with black metal screaming). (Wait, did they do “Green Grass and High Tides Forever?”) (Yes, they did! So why isn’t it here? Because they need something that might help sell the Volume 2 of this fake-out, duh.) (What a cool song, “Ghost Riders in the Sky,” eh, especially when it’s a screamy, screechy, goat-demon version, in black metal! Why didn’t Deafheaven think of this, hipsters? Hah?) • Heavens to Betsy, my freakin’ goodness gracious, what else wilt thou torture my aesthetic sensibilities with, O hallowed music gods, with no normal albums for mine snarking and ... wait, here’s an “Original Motion Picture Soundtrack,” meaning it can’t be metal. It can’t. Yup, it’s Danny Elfman’s music soundtrack for the new movie Don’t Worry, He Won’t Get Far On Foot, another funny-sadfunny self-referential joint from that bunch of actors in Seth Rogen’s orbit who stopped caring about quality two years ago. The music for this stupid movie, about a slacker cartoonist who gets in a car crash, promises to be quirky, quaint, and totally not black metal. • YES, there’s a live album for me to talk about instead of black metal and idiotic movies. Holy crow, great day in the morning, it’s 24 tracks of live Erasure, that English 1980s-pop duo your kids have never heard of, on their new album “World Be Live!” Awesome, will it be comprised of orchestral versions of the songs on their normal LP World Be Gone? Nope, that’s World Beyond, which will be out later, whenever, who cares. Will it be music from an old TV soap opera? Nope, that’s As the World Turns, the soundtrack to your mother’s life in the 1970s. No, this is a bunch of remixes, now get me out of here. • The Nude Party are a six-member rock band from Boone, N.C. Their self-titled debut LP was produced by Oakley Munson of Black Lips, and the single, “Chevrolet Van” sounds like a young Iggy. Yes, that means it’s good. — Eric W. Saeger

Together in “Our Town”
Thornton Wilder Conference comes to Peterborough
The Thornton Wilder Society has set its sights on Peterborough for the location of its third International Thornton Wilder Conference. For three days, Thursday, July 12, through Saturday, July 14, there will be presentations, roundtable conversations, panel discussions, readings and special events related to Wilder at the Monadnock Center for History and Culture. Wilder was an American playwright and novelist who lived from 1897 to 1975. He
is best known for his Pulitzer Prize-winning novel The Bridge of San Luis Rey and plays Our Town and The Skin of Our Teeth and U.S. National Book Award-winning novel The Eighth Day. “Part of Wilder’s appeal is that his writing is universal,” Rosey Strub, manager of The Wilder Family, said. “He writes about larger themes, but has a unique way of zeroing in on tiny details and everyday life in a way that allows people living anywhere, of any age, to find significance.” Thirty-three presenters, including leading scholars and theater professionals from around the globe, will participate in the conference.

For golf enthusiasts, there are already a dozen or so books about Tiger Woods, including those written by Tiger’s father, caddy and coach, and even a couple ostensibly penned by Tiger himself. Woods’ fans have already read those. The new book on the golf superstar, Tiger Woods by Jeff Benedict and Armen Keteyian, is for those of us who didn’t, people who don’t care that much about golf, not even so much about Tiger Woods, unless he happens to be embroiled in some new scandal. Here, the authors have written more “whodunit” than biography, which took extraordinary skill, given that the tawdry secrets of Woods’ personal life have been splayed in the National Enquirer and Vanity Fair. Benedict and Keteyian take those undignified headlines, fill in the background and connect all the dots. They did so by reading everything virtually everything written about Woods, from magazine articles to court transcripts; by listening to every press conference; and by talking to everyone associated with Woods who would grant them an interview. That would not include Woods, his mother or his former wife. But the authors, investigative journalists, interviewed some 250 people, to include Woods’ kindergarten teacher, his first serious girlfriend, the woman who owned the house where Woods used to stay during the Masters and the sexton who dug Woods’ father’s grave. The story begins graveside a dozen years ago, as the cremated remains of Earl Woods, Tiger’s celebrated yet controversial father, are buried in a square wooden box that measures 10 by 10 inches. The ceremony, such as it was, was 20 minutes long and sparsely attended. There were six people present: Tiger, his mother, and wife; and Earl’s three children from his first marriage. In these opening pages, Benedict and Keteyian establish themselves as masters of the telling detail. There are two in this scene: first, that there were two limousines to ferry six people; and second, that Earl Woods lies – apparently still – in an unmarked grave. “The only way to tell where Earl Woods is buried is to know where to look for the corner markers buried in the earth. You have to have a map to find them,” the Kansas sexton who dug the grave told Benedict and Keteyian. (He also told them it took him nearly an hour to dig the grave, which was 42 inches deep.) With this masterful prologue, the authors set up a mystery (why is this important man laid to rest in this way?) while taking a preemptive swipe at anyone who questions the 400-plus pages that follow, which are, on the whole, a devastating portrait of both Woods
and his parents. Long credited as a major reason for Tiger’s success, the parents are also credited with his moral failings, and not just the tawdry infidelities that led to his divorce, or the arrogant abuses of celebrity. Equally damning are the puerile, sexual jokes; the long-term relationships, both professional and personal, that Woods abruptly ends over minor slights; and Woods’ crude and dismissive treatment of people who don’t dwell in his stratosphere. One in particular stands out: He encounters the woman who owns the house he stayed at for several years while playing at the Masters, she offers her hand and introduces herself, and he ignores both her hands and words, speaks to someone else and then leaves. His father called him “the chosen one,” but in these and similar anecdotes, the Tiger Woods in these pages is a profane, selfabsorbed jerk, and with each revelation the questions the authors ask become as much about us as they are about him. Is there nothing we won’t forgive, so long as the objects of our communal affection are still young, good-looking and competitive? Nike stuck with Woods even at the height of his first scandal; there’s since been another, 2017’s DUI arrest, for which he is still on probation. Woods is playing again, bantering in the Bleacher Report about whether pro golfers should be able to wear shorts, and some observers think he might win one of the 10 tournaments he’s scheduled to play in this summer. Tiger Woods helps to explain how Earl and Kultida Woods built a man who is still standing, still swinging, despite his physical breakdowns and surgeries, despite the loss of his father and his wife, despite the humiliation of the scandals, not the least of which was the revelation that he often dined with his wife — and once picked up one of his mistresses — at a Perkins Family Restaurant and Bakery. (Celebrities! They eat pancakes and flirt with waitresses just like us!) But at its heart, Tiger Woods is a cautionary tale: the stomach-turning results of a child raised in a cauldron into which is thrown a pinch of resentment, a handful of inspiration, and alternating pails of adulation and discipline bordering on abuse. We are left to wonder how the story would have turned out if Earl Woods, in addition to hitting golf balls for hours in front of his 6-month-old son and giving him motivational tapes to listen to in grade school, had not exposed the child to constant profanity, serial betrayal and a sham of a marriage that remained intact even when the partners lived in separate houses — and if Tiger’s parents had worked at something other than Tiger and asked their son, just occasionally, to do his laundry and take out the trash.

Our Town. In 1960, the Colony gave him the inaugural Edward MacDowell Medal, an award that recognizes artists of all media who have made outstanding contributions to American culture and arts. It is widely speculated that Grover’s Corners, the fictional town in which Our Town is set, was inspired by Peterborough. “There are definitely landmarks referenced throughout the play like Mount Monadnock and Jaffrey and lots of areas around there that can lead one to draw that conclusion,” Strub said. “On the surface, it’s about Peterborough, but really, it’s about life, love, marriage and death. It’s a small town that becomes the world.”
Rice Moore has taken a job as a caretaker for a remote forest preserve in Virginia - perfect for hiding from the Mexican drug cartels he betrayed back in Arizona. But when he finds the carcass of a bear killed on the grounds, his quiet life is upended. A staff pick of Brian’s!

Lecture and discussion topics will include Wilder’s plays and novels, personal life and scholarly work; Wilder’s legacy and place in today’s world; Wilder in theater and film; and teaching Wilder’s works to young people. Other conference highlights will include a reading of Wilder’s one-act play The Long Christmas Dinner, a virtual tour of the extensive Wilder Collection at Yale’s Beinecke Library and directorial demonstrations of five Wilder plays by Suffolk University students. Additionally, the Peterborough Players have coordinated their production of Wilder’s play The Skin of Our Teeth to coincide with the conference, with showtimes on Thursday and Friday at 7:30 p.m. and Saturday at 8 p.m. (tickets are $42 at peterboroughplayers.org). “This year, as opposed to previous years, there are a lot more performative moments in the conference,” Strub said. “There’s a nice mix of scholarly presentations and panel discussions, with performances that add another layer to the dialogue.” Peterborough was chosen as the location for this year’s conference because of its connection to Wilder; Wilder held residencies at the prestigious MacDowell Colony, an artists’ colony in Peterborough, and did much of his writing there, including long sections of The Bridge of San Luis Rey and

POP CULTURE FILM REVIEWS BY AMY DIAZ
Sicario: Day of the Soldado (R)
Josh Brolin and Benicio Del Toro grimace through Sicario: Day of the Soldado, a bleak sequel to the 2015 movie about the drug war.
CIA or something agent Matt Graver (Brolin) is in hot pursuit of the terrorist organization connected to an attack at a Kansas supermarket. When he finds some evidence suggesting that Mexican drug cartels might have something to do with getting terrorists across the border, he is given license by U.S. government higher-ups (including people played by Catherine Keener and Matthew Modine) to foment disruption in the current cartel power balance. He brings on Alejandro Gillick (Benicio Del Toro) to help him start a cartel war, a plan that includes kidnapping 16-year-old Isabel Reyes (Isabela Moner), the daughter of a cartel leader. Perhaps because this is kind of a stupid plan to begin with, the scheme hits some hiccups and soon Matt and Alejandro are each put in a position where they must decide whether they will follow orders or go with what their conflicted-gray-hat-anti-hero gut tells them is right. Emily Blunt was fantastic in the first Sicario. She played a law enforcement agent who got a close-up look at the brutality of the drug business and the rule-breaking of those combatting it and she found herself fighting against both sides. Her struggle and her character were the meaty center of that movie and helped to ground it in someone and something real. Emily Blunt is not in this movie. Day of the Soldado lets all the peripheral stuff of the first movie rush in and run amok: Del Toro as the shady guy whose ultimate goal is vengeance; Brolin as the even shadier guy whose ultimate goal is half-hearted U.S. government fiddling. And, like so many pieces of entertainment that seem to have a non-fatal but chronic case of peak-TV disease, the movie feels grim for the sake of grimness, a grimness that has no payoff and doesn’t help explain or examine anything. We don’t “learn” anything — not that I actually expect the movie to be educational but it doesn’t put me somewhere new. The characters are not compelling and the plot feels kind of lazy. And maybe the U.S. government’s plot — the in-movie plan to create a drug war
Sicario: Day of the Soldado
because somehow this helps the war on terror or maybe we’re using the war on terror to fight drugs, I forget which thing is using which — is supposed to seem half-hearted but if that’s the message, that the U.S. is fighting both drug and terror wars ineffectively and without considering the blowback (and I’m not even sure that is the message), even that point isn’t interestingly made. Brolin is fine, Del Toro is a little better than fine. But two performances do not a movie make, at least, these two not-quite-lead performances do not this movie make. Sometimes, when you’ve made, like, pizza at home, you’ll have a lot of leftover bread dough. You’ll feel the urge not to waste this dough, especially if you had to go to the trouble of letting it rise (or, to drop the metaphor for a second, the trouble of getting Brolin between superhero movies). You’ll try to make all kinds of crazy things with the dough bits — garlic knots, cheese buns, savory cinnamon roll-like things with leftover pesto and salami. Some of these things might work out and some will just be interesting leftover bits crammed together but still half-baked in the center. Sometimes if you don’t have enough pepperoni or Emily Blunt for another pizza/ movie about moral struggle, maybe the best idea is just to let those leftover bits go. C+ Rated R for strong violence, bloody images, and language, according to the MPAA. Directed by Stefano Sollima with a screenplay by Taylor Sheridan, Sicario: Day of the Soldado is two hours and 8 minutes long and distributed by Columbia Pictures.
Uncle Drew (PG-13)
A group of senior citizens with a legacy of excelling at street basketball get another shot at the court in Uncle Drew, a funny and gentle comedy that would be perfect as half of a double feature with Tag.
Recently, on Previously.tv’s podcast Extra Hot Great, guest Josh Gondelman discussed how he’s come to prefer comedies (and TV shows in general) with a certain amount of gentleness at their center. I agree, not just in TV but in movies as well. Tag for example was enjoyable not because it was so explosively hilarious but because it was just so carefree. If I ever watch the recent Overboard remake again it will be because it is also more silly than sharp. It’s not that I don’t like smart and dark (I loved Tully, which was both) but if a movie isn’t going to be expert in how it uses grimmer subjects or meaner humor, I think I’d prefer something less skilled but sillier. And, if the way some of this summer’s movies are pitched is any indication, I may not be alone. Basketball coach Dax (Lil Rel Howery) is banking on rising superstar Casper (Aaron Gordon) to lead his team, the Harlem Money, to victory (and a $100,000 prize) at the upcoming street basketball tournament. But longtime rival coach Mookie (Nick Kroll) lures Casper and the rest of the team — and Dax’s girlfriend Jess (Tiffany Haddish) — away and Dax finds himself with nothing more than an empty team roster, a
box full of uniforms and a trash bag containing his personal effects after Jess kicks him out of her apartment. Desperate to find replacement players, Dax visits basketball courts throughout the city. At one, he sees a white-haired old man heckling a group of young players, eventually challenging one of them to some one-on-one. As he gains the upper hand, Dax realizes that the older man is Uncle Drew (Kyrie Irving), a living legend of street basketball who faded from the public eye decades earlier. Dax needs somebody, anybody, to play for him, and Uncle Drew fits the definition of “anybody” so Dax asks him. Uncle Drew agrees but only if he can bring along his equally aged former teammates: Preacher (Chris Webber), Lights (Reggie Miller), Boots (Nate Robinson) and Big Fella (Shaquille O’Neal), a particularly good buddy whom he hasn’t spoken to in years due to a falling out. Also along for the ride is Boots’ granddaughter, Maya (Erica Ash), on whom Dax shyly crushes, and Betty Lou (Lisa Leslie), Preacher’s wife, who is adamantly opposed to his playing (and if you Google Lisa Leslie or even, like non-sports-follower me, had a vague sense of who she is, you can probably guess how that side plot turns out). Also, you don’t entirely have to know who everybody is to spot the difference between the character ages and the actor ages. Gray wigs and age makeup abound but, to this movie’s credit, it doesn’t get in the way. I can see the prosthetic wrinkles and I can ignore them. And, of course, without it, you couldn’t get the scenes of the “elders” dominating their younger opponents. Similarly, I can see some of the seams in this movie, see some of its solid-B, maybe even B+, but not A, elements but this doesn’t get in the way of my generally enjoying it. Even the constant product placement basically works — the movie plays Mookie’s shout out to Aleve exactly right. (The movie, as I learned from Wikipedia, is basically an adaptation of a series of Pepsi commercials starring Irving which I either don’t remember or never saw; now, having seen some of them, I think they are also quite charming.) The movie is stocked with people you just want to root for and

spend time with, particularly Howery and Irving, who really is an actor playing a role, not just a basketball player killing time between scenes on the court. Kroll and Haddish are the perfect kind of villains for this sort of movie — it’s a very lowgrade kind of villainy that is also fun to be around in exactly the doses presented here. Back to my fantasy Tag/Uncle Drew double feature, this movie has more stakes,
slightly more emotional heft and more heart but is just as low-effort enjoyable, maybe even a little more so as it had, to my memory, the edge on the laugh-out-loud jokes. B Rated PG-13 for suggestive material, language and brief nudity, according to the MPAA. Directed by Charles Stone III with a screenplay by Jay Longino, Uncle Drew is an hour and 43 minutes long and distributed by Summit Entertainment.

Rock & Roll Hall of Famers Yes are celebrating 50 years as a band, and Alan White has played drums for nearly all of them. Yes’s true identity is a tricky topic, however. Two groups share the name — one led by original singer Jon Anderson and keyboard player Rick Wakeman and another with White and guitarist Steve Howe, which hits Hampton Beach on July 11. White doesn’t dwell on the rift. “They can do whatever they want. I don’t complain or talk about it really,” White said in a recent phone interview. “I just get on playing Yes music, which is what I’ve always done for the last 46 years.” White replaced Bill Bruford on the kit in 1972 as Close to the Edge was rising in the charts, after an impromptu audition in the basement of a London shop. Bruford had abruptly stepped out. “He said he had a dinner appointment,” White said. “The rest of the band was just standing round tuning their guitars and going, ‘What do we do?’ We were rehearsing, and he just left. [Yes engineer] Eddie Offord was with me. He said, ‘Alan can play that kind of stuff,’ and I just sat in with them.” Prior to joining Yes, he’d played with John Lennon, first with Plastic Ono Band and later on his solo albums. White also worked on George Harrison’s All Things Must Pass. Moving from ex-Beatles to the intricate time signatures of “Siberian Khatru,” his first song with the prog rock pioneers, was easier than it appeared for White. “A lot of people didn’t know that I had my own band,” he said. “We all lived in a house in the country and played things like Frank Zappa songs. We wrote all of our own material, which was pretty complex. … I had a very good knowledge of 7/8 and 5/8 and that kind of stuff.”
Yes. Courtesy photo.
He played on the Yessongs live set; White’s first studio album with the band was 1974’s Tales From Topographic Oceans. As the longest continuous member of Yes (Howe left from 1981 to 1990), he was a part of every subsequent LP. Asked to pick a favorite, he hedged a bit. “There are so many different eras. A good time was Going for the One; we made that album in Switzerland, spent about eight months there eating very good food, skiing and then working in the studio … a lot of fun,” he said. “All the albums have been great in different ways. The kind of time we had goes with each; we can relate to it through the music.” Bothered with back problems, White had a limited role in the recent European leg of the Yes50 tour, playing on only a few songs; he’s feeling better now. “I’m going to be doing more on this next tour but not the full show; I’m pacing myself,” he said. “I’m playing five or six songs.” Adding to the tour’s historical nature, founding keyboard player Tony Kaye is appearing as a special guest on the three-song encore: “Yours Is No Disgrace,” “Starship Trooper” and “Roundabout.” After being replaced by Wakeman in 1971, Kaye played with Badfinger and David Bowie before rejoining the MTV-era Yes. He departed again in 1994. “It’s interesting playing with him
again,” White said. Regarding his time as a Lennon sideman, White said he was plucked from a London bar at age 20 to play the ex-Beatles’ solo debut at the 1969 Toronto Peace Festival — a band that included Eric Clapton — he had a critical role in one of the 20th century’s most iconic songs, “Imagine.” It was White who suggested the spare solo piano that opens the track. “We were playing the song with the whole band from the word go,” he said. “I was in the studio and Phil Spector was there and John, and we went to listen to the playback. I said, ‘John, you know that piano part is really really good — why don’t you just start by using the piano and singing and the band comes in?’ ... and that’s what happened.” When he’s not touring with Yes, White plays with his own band. “Imagine” is a frequent request at his shows, as is “Instant Karma,” which he also helped make. “It’s really an incredible feeling to have been a part of that,” he said. “Every time I go to a party and jam with a band, everybody wants me to play [those songs]. ... It’s a good few memories I’ve had.” An Evening With Yes When: Wednesday, July 11, 8 p.m. Where: Casino Ballroom, 169 Ocean Blvd., Hampton Tickets: $25-$79 at casinoballroom.com

SIGNS OF LIFE All quotes are from Uncommon Type: Some Stories, by Tom Hanks, born July 9, 1956. Cancer (June 21 – July 22) Today was his nineteenth birthday. Last night after dinner he had asked his father if they could surf in the morning like they had the day he turned ten and, again, the morning he turned thirteen. “You bet!” his father said. Surf’s up. Leo (July 23 – Aug. 22) They’d known each other since they were twenty-year-old college kids, drivers for FedEx, full of moxie and spunk — their two heads bursting with ideas. … After three and a half years of working 120-hour weeks, they’d come up with a prototype of the Shuffle-Access Digital ValveRelay. They might as well have invented fire. A new invention will succeed. Virgo (Aug. 23 – Sept. 22) She was not looking to buy an old typewriter. She needed nothing and wanted no more possessions — new, used, antique — not a thing. You may find what you’re not looking for. Libra (Sept. 23 – Oct. 22) Three days out, some of the crew began giving the chief troubles. The Cypriot steward had a bad leg and didn’t clean up after meals fast enough The seaman Sorianos was a liar, saying he had checked the scuppers when he had not checked the scuppers. … Assan, though, caused no worries. The crew may be restless. Scorpio (Oct. 23 – Nov. 21) Bette had a vision — pop — of herself and the kids in the kitchen for a busy breakfast. … Her mental image was so focused, so particular, there was no question the house on Greene Street — oh, that massive sycamore tree in the front yard — would be hers. Theirs. If you can dream it, it’s still not yours until you sign all the paperwork. Sagittarius (Nov. 22 – Dec. 21) Anna said there was only one place to find a meaningful gift … the Antique Warehouse … in what used NITE SUDOKU
to be the Lux Theater. An old space is ripe for repurposing. Capricorn (Dec. 22 – Jan. 19) You see, over cold beers in my backyard, with the crescent moon a delicate princess fingernail low in the west, I told Steve Wong that if he threw, say, a hammer with enough muscle, said tool would make a 500,000-mile figure eight, sail around that very moon, and return to Earth like a boomerang, and wasn’t that fascinating? Steve Wong works at Home Depot, so has access to many hammers. He offered to chuck a few. Don’t steal office supplies. Aquarius (Jan. 20 – Feb. 18) What brown fox jumped quickly over dogs that are lazy? Hey, this writing machine actually works! What the hell has happened? Who am I today? Still Rory Thorpe, I guess, but who is he? It’s your chance to find out! Pisces (Feb. 19 – March 20) What Steve Wong did was real, it happened, in front of witnesses even, so he went viral. Stick with triple-verified sources. Aries (March 21 – April 19) On that first birthday visit, Cindee felt ridiculous in the old-style clothes. Bert, though, was in heaven in a double-breasted suit made to measure by the tailors of Chronometric Adventures. You will flourish in your own fashion. Taurus (April 20 – May 20) He loved Sue Gliebe from the moment he saw her at a dress rehearsal for Brigadoon in the summer of ’76. Sometimes it works like that. Gemini (May 21 – June 20) Sue … headed back over to Broadway with an agenda for the day. She would not blow time by idly walking in Central Park…. She would not filter through the record stores and bookstores without buying any of the titles. … Today, she was going to the Public Library, the famous building at Forty-Second and Fifth, the landmark building with the stone lions in front. They just might have what you want.

NEWS OF THE WEIRD BY ANDREWS MCMEEL SYNDICATION
To absent friends
During the 2014 World Cup, five friends in Durango, Mexico, made a pact to travel to the 2018 tournament in Russia. They saved their money, bought a bus, painted it in Mexico’s colors and booked passage for themselves and the bus on a ship going to Spain, where The Daily Mail reported, the friends planned to drive the bus to Russia. But just before they boarded the ship in April, one of the five, Javier, told his friends his wife had put the kibosh on his trip. So the remaining four did the next best thing: They made a cardboard life-size cutout of Javier, looking grumpy and wearing a shirt that says, “My wife didn’t let me go,” and set off for Russia. The cardboard Javier has been very popular at the soccer venues, attracting female admirers, appearing on the big screen, crowdsurfing and being photographed with fellow football fans from all over the world.
Anger management
In North Port, Florida, a witness watched on June 17 as 75-year-old Helena Molnar beat an unnamed man with a water jug after he watered her plants. When he emptied the rest of the water in the jug on her plants, she went inside her house and returned with a different weapon, which the witness didn’t see but said “made a different sound” than the water jug. According to WWSB TV, North Port police arrived to find the victim soaking wet, with blood drops on his shirt. Molnar was charged with battery.
Art makes a statement
• At the Royal College of Art’s annual London fashion show in June, one graduate unveiled a unique approach to accessorizing garments: crystallized bodily fluids. Alice Potts displayed a pair of ballet shoes decorated with crystals formed from sweat, along with a fake fur adorned with urine crystals. Potts told Reuters the “more natural materials” could offer environmental benefits not possible with traditional plastics. • To kick off an exhibition focused on the opioid crisis at his Stamford, Connecticut, art gallery on June 22, gallery owner Fernando Alvarez and artist Domenic Esposito placed an 800-pound, 11-foot-long steel sculpture of a bent and burned spoon in front of the headquarters of Purdue Pharma, makers of OxyContin. Purdue has been the subject of lawsuits alleging deceptive marketing and, therefore, responsibility for opioid addiction and overdose issues. “The spoon has always been an albatross for my family,” said Esposito, whose brother has struggled with drug addiction for 14 years. The Associated Press reported police arrested Alvarez for obstructing free passage and confiscated the spoon as evidence.

Awesome!
On June 23, firefighters of Engine 642 of the Henrietta, New York, Fire District went the extra mile after responding to an accident in which the injured driver was a pizza delivery man, according to Fox News. “Once the patient was cared for and loaded into the ambulance, the crew decided to finish the delivery so the pizza wouldn’t go to waste,” the fire department posted on its Facebook page. “If it’s not delivery it’s Di ... Fire dept?!”
Oops!
• James J. Rynerson, 38, was being held in the Mesa County (Colorado) Jail in May after being charged with menacing, disorderly conduct and trespass. But on May 21, the Grand Junction Daily Sentinel reported, sheriff’s deputies at the jail released him, having mistaken him for Marvin March, 35, a different inmate. Jail staff gave Rynerson March’s belongings, and he wore March’s leather jacket as he signed March’s name to the release papers and left the facility. Rynerson’s wife was startled to see her husband in the garage at their home, and after he explained what happened, she convinced him to go back. She “personally drove him back to the Mesa County Detention Facility,” the report noted, and he was back in custody by 11 p.m., with new charges, including escape and forgery, added to his list. • A woman in Wenling, China, was so thrilled to be driving the Ferrari 458 she rented on June 21 that she recorded herself while waiting at a stoplight: “First time driving a Ferrari. This truly is the most amazing feeling.” But within minutes, reported the Daily Mail, she swerved out of control, striking a
metal traffic barrier and a BMW X3, destroying the front end of the $660,000 Ferrari and deploying its airbags. Neither the driver nor her passenger was injured in the accident.
Recurring themes
In this week’s installment of foreign objects stuck in body cavities: Mr. Li of China’s Guangdong Province went to the doctor on June 15 at Pingshan Hospital in Shenzhen after feeling discomfort and pain in his ear. Using an otoscope scan, the doctor discovered a live cockroach burrowing into the 52-year-old man’s ear canal. “It’s still alive, still moving,” the doctor can be heard on video saying, according to The Daily Mail. She cut the roach into pieces to remove it and disinfected Li’s ear with alcohol in case it had laid eggs.
Suspicions confirmed
Visitors crowding into a Vancouver, Canada, street festival on June 17 were invited — at $38 a pop — to try a new health craze: Hot Dog Water. The drink is marketed as a gluten-free, Keto diet-compatible, post-workout source of sodium and electrolytes, and every sleek bottle, which promises to help with weight loss, also contains a hot dog. It’s also a prank. Hot Dog Water CEO Douglas Bevans told Global News the product was dreamed up as a response to the “snake oil salesmen” of health marketing. In small print at the bottom of the sales sheet is this disclaimer: “Hot Dog Water in its absurdity hopes to encourage critical thinking related to product marketing and the significant role it can play in our purchasing choices.” Touche.
