NOTE FROM THE PUBLISHER

Hello Friends!

Let us never forget to acknowledge Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Such an important time for everyone! Please schedule testing today if you have not had one yet this year. Remind you mothers, daughters, sisters and friends to do the same. Take care of ourselves and each other!

How is your October going? Seems like it is getting cold much earlier this year. Nothing says Fall like cold weather and leaves on the ground. How are you celebrating October?

If you have ever been a customer, you should receive an email this week about our 35th anniversary celebration issue. Please take the time to read over it and give some thought to participating in this issue with us. I think it is a great time to celebrate all businesses in the area. Please let me know if you have any questions and I would be happy to work with you.

hope everyone has a great week! Thank you for your

and

Take Care, Lisa Durbin

CDC Shares Information About Breast Cancer

Ask your doctor when you should get a mammogram.

Other than skin cancer, breast cancer is the most common cancer among American women. Mammograms are the best way to find breast cancer early, when it is easier to treat and before it is big enough to feel or cause symptoms.

Are you worried about the cost?

CDC’s National Breast and Cervical Cancer Early Detection Program offers free or lowcost mammograms to women who have low incomes and are uninsured or underinsured. Find out if you qualify.

What Are the Symptoms?

There are different symptoms of breast cancer, and some people have no symptoms at all. Symptoms can include—

• Any change in the size or the shape of the breast.

• Pain in any area of the breast.

• Nipple discharge other than breast milk (including blood).

• A new lump in the breast or underarm.

• If you have any signs that worry you, see your doctor right away.

What Are the Risk Factors?

Some main factors that affect your chance of getting breast cancer include

• Being a woman.

• Being older. Most breast cancers are found in women who are 50 years old or older.

• Having changes in your BRCA1 or BRCA2 genes.

How Can I Lower My Risk?

• You can do things to help lower your breast cancer risk.

• Keep a healthy weight and exercise regularly.

• Choose not to drink alcohol, or drink alcohol in moderation.

• If you are taking hormone replacement therapy or birth control pills, ask your doctor about the risks.

• Breastfeed your children, if possible.

Fast Facts About Breast Cancer

Each year in the United States, about 264,000 women get breast cancer and 42,000 women die from the disease.

Men also get breast cancer, but it is not very common. About 1 out of every 100 breast cancers diagnosed in the United States is found in a man.

Most breast cancers are found in women who are 50 years old or older, but breast cancer also affects younger women.

Rocky Horror

Show at Capone’s Oct 20th

Rocky Horror MUSIC Show will be playing Capone’s in Johnson City on Thursday October 20. Rocky Horror has been a sensation for nearly 50 years. First as a Stage Show, then as a Movie and now as a Live Music review. Rocky Horror Music Show presents the songs of Rocky Horror in a rock club setting. Think of it as a Rocky Horror Tribute Experience.

The costumed characters will be playing the songs live with snippets of the movie dialogue you want to hear and on-stage narration telling the story between songs.

This will make it easy to follow for newbies to the show. Don’t worry though, veterans

will be impressed by the depth the band goes on the song list. In addition to the hits like “Dammit Janet” and “Time Warp”, Rocky Horror Music Show will hit ALL the songs including deep cuts and even deleted scenes.

This is being presented by an All-Star lineup of Asheville musicians featuring members of Dr. Bacon, Natural Born Leaders, Modern Strangers, Andrew Thelston Band, Carpal Tullar, The Deathbots, Fancy Marie & The Gentleman, The Beekeepers, Pronounced Heroes and more!!

Hello everyone, looks like Fall has arrived along with chilly night, bright autumn colors and pumpkin spice everything. There will still be warm days. So our riding season isn’t over yet, but is riding season ever really over. Some of us still ride in rain, heat, cold and yes even snow. Please continue to ride safe keeping your knees in the breeze. Motorcycle riding is one of the greatest joys in life. But you need to be okay with the emotional state it puts you in. Motorcycle riding is a combination of exhilaration, fear, relaxation, and pleasure that changes you forever. It’s physical & emotional pleasure, with a layer of anxiety & adrenaline. Riding a motorcycle can even burn calories. The number of calories an average person can burn while riding is between 150 to 600 calories per hour and it depends on a lot of different factors such as your level of movement and effort while riding or the level at which you exercise your muscles while riding.

If you are going to ride in the rain please remember a few things. Easy on the front brake. If you grab a fist full of front brake in wet conditions, you could crash or hydroplane, leave extra stopping distance. Your

stopping distance increases in wet weather, wear a full-face helmet, wear proper weather appropriate gear, relax, avoid large puddles, turn on your headlights.

The most spectacular part of riding a motorcycle in the fall is enjoying the fall foliage with an unobstructed view. All those leaves are beautiful to behold—as long as they stay on the trees. Once they fall to the ground, leaves can easily change from being beautiful to being a danger. Fall can be enjoyable for motorcycle trips. The roadways are highlighted with breathtaking colors as the fallen leaves turn from environment-friendly to blazing oranges, stunning yellows, fiery reds, and deep purples. The warm sun on your face and a cool autumn breeze can make for an exhilarating ride. The highways of East Tennessee flow like ribbons through the Appalachian Mountains. You will get breath taken views of our lakes, rivers, and streams of one of the world’s oldest mountain ranges. From the top of our mountains, you can view the colors of Fall. Fall is the season for all senses. Riding this time of year offers us the feel of cooler temperatures after a long hot summer. A warm, visually pleasing palate of reds, oranges and browns and the smell of wood smoke.

Autumn is one of the best times to ride and experience the splendor of nature. There’s no better way to see the fall foliage than via a motorcycle ride through fields and forests.

On a bike, you’re immersed in the ever-changing panorama of foliage colors—unobstructed by a car’s roof and its pillars. Even a convertible places a frame in your line of vision.

Biker Corner

On a motorcycle, you glide visually unrestricted through the majesty of the trees. Fall foliage season is very symbolic for us riders. It’s a yearly mile marker in our riding season.

The swelter of late summer is gone, transformed into the delightful daytime warmth and cool nights of fall. The trees tell us that temperatures are about to fall, as the leaves flutter to the ground.

Four Ways to Ruin Your Brand

Your brand reputation is everything. Protecting it means constantly maintaining your social media presence and safeguarding against a potential crisis. Avoiding four simple mistakes can help you maintain an image that will draw in your target audience and help build relationships that can lead to sales.

Failure to Continue Learning

Learning is a constant process. If you feel as if you already know everything there is to know about your field, how can your followers expect to learn from you? Refusal to grow hinders your ability to be seen as a leader because you are showing your followers that you are not open to varying opinions. The world is full of lessons to learn and if you are unwilling to pursue continuous education,

your brand will suffer.

Grammatical Errors

Grammar mistakes are the best way to keep your content from being shared. Errors indicate an unstructured strategy and unverified content. Read your content out loud before posting to catch errors before you share it with your audience. Putting your best foot forward starts with creating a clear message.

Overpromoting Your Brand

The 80/20 social media marketing rule states that 80% of your posts should provide value or solve problems for your audience and 20% should promote your business. When you alter that dynamic, you risk losing followers and business. Your goal is to assist your audience in finding solutions to their issues. Spending 80% of your time

focused on solving problems will help the 20% promotional material fall into place.

Not Engaging Your Audience

Social media is about having conversations with your audience. Neglecting comments and questions will raise concerns about your level of customer service and how much value you place on your potential customers. Respond to every single comment and question to let your audience know they are being heard. Social media is a two way street. If your audience is talking to a brick wall, they are unlikely to purchase your product or service.

Simple actions can make or break your brand. How far are you willing to go to build your reputation?

It’s no secret when it comes to autumn cuisine, apples are the star of the show. For generations in the south, we’ve centered an entire season around this versatile fruit, making memories and family traditions in celebrating its harvest, from apple picking at the orchard to churning apple butter. I’ve rounded up some of my favorite quick, easy and (most important) delicious ways to enjoy fall’s favorite piece of produce, from hors d’oeuvres to desserts. And with these yummy recipes racking up the recommended apple a day, we should expect to keep the doctors at bay for quite some time!

My first and most underappreciated way to enjoy an apple is the simplest way- raw! There is hardly anything more satisfying than the tart-but-sweet snap of a perfectly ripe slice, but when perfectly paired with a gourmet cheese it’s positively heavenly. A classic duo that belongs on any cheese board has to be Granny Smith with Stilton bleu cheese. Whether you’re caught off guard by an unexpected visitor or aiming to impress a house-full of guests, serving up this quick and easy appetizer is sure to satisfy. Pop open a bottle of fruit-forward Prosecco, lay out a variety of water crackers and enjoy!

Salads are also a great way to incorporate apples into your menu. When serving my fruits against crisp greens, I like the addition of something a bit chewy for a softer mouthfeel; thankfully dried cranberries are another seasonal flavor that plays nicely with apples.

Apples of my Eyes

Lately I’ve tossed together a few healthy handfuls of spring mixed greens, a diced tart apple, and sprinkles of dried cranberries (or raisins), pepitas (or pecans, or walnuts) and goat cheese. This harvest fruit-n-nut salad is perfect the way it is or add a piece of protein for a complete meal! You can either drizzle your favorite bottled balsamic or whip up your own dressing using EVOO, apple cider vinegar, honey, Dijon mustard, and cracked salt and pepper.

When it comes to weeknight entrees, I stay so busy that “quick with minimal cleanup” is my top priority. And while I typically don’t eat a ton of pork, a guaranteed way I will enjoy it is cooked with apples. Enter this deliciously easy oneskillet dish. Frankly, the marinade for the pork is almost identical to the above salad dressing, which goes to show just how versatile these classic flavors and pantry staples can be. Just generously salt and pepper a 2-3lb pork tenderloin, then whisk together 3T olive oil, 3T Dijon mustard, 1/2C brown sugar, 1T minced garlic and 2T apple juice. Rub the pork with the mix, then cook it in a preheated medium skillet for about 10 minutes, turning every so often to ensure even cooking. Slice 2 apples into wedges and add those to the skillet and cook until pork is white and cooked through. Garnish with fresh thyme when serving.

If apples don’t need to be the star of the meal, they always make a welcome side dish. One of my favorites growing up and now is classic cooked apples. My grandma used to make these and they are spectacular in their simplicity; just butter, apples, brown sugar and spice! I found a recipe online that

adds a bit of nutmeg and vanilla extract, plus cornstarch water at the end to thicken, but that’s all optional. Play around and make these your own!

I also love to add diced apples to a box of Stove Top when I’m cutting corners during the holidays. I make my entire meal from scratch, but one time-saver I thoroughly enjoy is boxed dressing, dressed up with my own secret ingredients. Just dice up onions, celery and apples, boil with 1 can of chicken broth and half a stick of butter per box, then when everything is boiling and softened stir in the boxed dressing mix, cover and set for 5 minutes. Just before serving dinner, I like to scoop it into a glass baking dish and bake in the oven about 15 minutes so the top gets nice and crispy. The mix of sweet and savory never makes the guests question its authenticity. Finally, one of my ultimate fall favorites- apple crisp. To me, there is nothing that warms the soul better than a big bowl of apple crisp straight from the oven, topped with vanilla bean ice cream. While any apples will do, in my opinion honeycrisp is the way to go here. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees, greese or butter an 8x8 dish and set aside. In a bowl, mix 6 peeled and chopped apples, 2T granulated sugar, 3/4tsp cinnamon and 1 1/2tsp lemon juice and transfer to greased baking dish. Next combine 1C light brown sugar, 3/4C old fashioned oats, 3/4C all purpose flour, 1tsp cinnamon, a pinch of salt and 1/2C cold unsalted butter cut into small cubes. Use a pastry cutter or fork to cut the butter into the mix until its broken down to pea-sized balls, then spread it evenly over the apples in the dish and bake for 45 minutes until golden brown and

bubbly. Serve in a bowl with a fat scoop of quality vanilla bean ice cream and snuggle up with your favorite scary movie.

In the way of beverages there’s no shortage of ciders on the market, but I really love liquid apples in mimosa form. Using my juicer, I fresh juice apples and add a splash to bubbles at brunch, served in a caramel rimmed champagne flute. If you don’t have a juicer or just don’t want the hassle, a half gallon of your favorite apple cider will work just as nicely.

I hope these recipes serve as inspiration for adding some apples to your own meals in the coming week! Feel free to experiment and share! I truly believe there’s no better way to show love than by feeding someone a home-cooked meal, especially when it’s made with fresh, seasonal ingredients.

Blonde

The late Marilyn Monroe has been the subject of countless films and television shows, and there is a new film to add to the vast collection: "Blonde". The film is based on the 2000 novel of the same name, and is a fictionalized take on the career of the world's most famous blonde. As I watched the film, I realized some aspects certainly happened in Monroe's life, and others I'm sure are speculation.One of the interesting aspects of the film is the fact there are segments in black and white and others in color, only adding to the mystique of the late actress. The film introduces us to Monroe as a child, known then as Norma Jeane Mortenson, and we see her life with her mentally unstable mother Gladys (Julianne Nicholson). Gladys is at times kind to Norma, and at other times is very harsh and abusive of her daughter. One night when a fire breaks out in the Hollywood Hills, Gladys has a complete breakdown after she realizes Norma's father wants nothing to do with her. During her breakdown Gladys tried to drown Norma in the bathtub, but the child escapes to a neighbours house where a couple who know Norma take her in until they realize Gladys has been admitted to a mental hospital and they can no longer care for the child. In a heartbreaking moment, the couple

Pop Life

take Norma to an orphanage, which breaks her heart as she knows she isn't an orphan. The film then moves from the 1930's to the 1940's and reveals Norman Jeane (Ana de Armas) has become a pin-up girl with the stage name Marilyn Monroe. After a horrible incident with a film studio president, she auditions for a role in the film "Don't Bother to Knock", and even though her audition goes horribly wrong, she impresses the casting director enough to be cast in the film. As her acting career continues to rise, she meets Charles "Cass" Chaplin, Jr. (Xavier Samuel) and Edward G. "Eddy" Robinson, Jr. (Evan Williams), the sons of two famous actors, and the trio develop an "interesting" relationship. Meanwhile, Monroe is cast in the movie "Niagara", which proves to be her breakout role. Once the role makes her a true film star, she is warned to stay away from Cass and Eddy, as her relationship with the duo could harm her budding career. As the film moves on, Monroe is cast in other famous films, including "Gentlemen Prefer Blondes", and "The Seven Year Itch". Some of her other films, including "Bus Stop", are never mentioned. The story also covers Monroe's various failed pregnancies, marriages to baseball star Joe Dimaggio (Bobby Cannavale) and playwright Arthur Miller (Adrien Brody), and infamous relationships with the Kennedy brothers, which is presented from and center in the film. By 1962, Marilyn has sadly become dependent on drugs and alcohol, and the dependency will eventually lead to her death, conspiracies aside. As she continues to spiral downward, one can't help but feel sorry for Monroe as she never was able to find lasting love and struggled to find respect in Hollywood as anything but a blonde "bombshell". Of course we know Monroe's life ended tragically, but the world was forever left with her splending work and amazing

onscreen chemistry, of which Norma could always turn on as MM. At times the film moves a bit slow, and has a long running time of 2 hours and 46 minutes, but is worth every moment due to the amazing performance of Ana de Armas. Armas is so in tune to Marilyn it's earth shattering, and I feel we will see her name announced come Oscar time. The film is rated NC-17, which I find a bit shocking considering most of the scenes which might be labeled controversial, have been seen in most R rated films. The film is directed by Andrew Dominik ("Killing Them Softly") and he is able to pull off a fresh take on Monroe

despite all the other efforts to hit the screen. The supporting actors are all wonderful, with the aforementioned Brody extremely effective as Miller. The cinematography in the film is beautiful, and Armas looks radiant. After viewing the film, I wish Monroe had been able to find lasting love and had been better treated by Hollywood, which may have resulted in a longer life. "Blonde" is a great watch for fans of Monroe and cinema history. Now playing on Netflix. (Rated NC-17)

Arsenic and Old Lace

“Arsenic and Old Lace” has been an enduring part of American pop culture for close to 80 years. The original play opened on Broadway in 1941 and became a massive hit, one of the long-running shows of the era, and still holds as one of the longest-running non-musical hits. The success was bound to mean a movie adaptation, and under the direction of Frank Capra, the 1944 film of the play has also become just as enduring.

The film version of “Arsenic and Old Lace” was shot in late 1941, to release in the Fall of 1942. That didn’t happen though, as a stipulation in the contract to the film version was that the movie couldn’t be released until the Broadway show had concluded its run. That was to be a thorn in the side of Warner Bros. President Jack L. Warner since the stage show kept right on selling out to massive crowds.

The story is centered around Halloween at a home in Brooklyn where the Brewster sisters are living. They’re both sweet, kind, adorable ladies who look after their nephew who thinks he’s Teddy Rosevelt. When their other nephew Mortimer shows up to announce he’s happily married, things are going well until he finds a

dead body hidden in a window seat.

Complications arise when Mortimer’s criminal brother Jonathan shows up—a character who is said to be a dead ringer for Boris Karloff.

That gag was funnier in the original Broadway show as Boris Karloff himself played the role. Karloff was considered to be the play’s main draw and as such the producers weren’t comfortable letting him take an eight-week break to make the film version. Though the actresses who play the two aunts and the actor who is “Teddy” are from the stage play. Karloff was dismayed he didn’t get the part, it went to actor Raymond Massey.

I am dismayed as we missed out to have both Karloff and Cary Grant in a film together. Grant plays Mortimer in this and though Grant considered his over-the-top performance to be one of his least favorites, he’s masterful with a cartoon, manic energy that is a joy to watch. “Arsenic and Old Lace” is a great macabre screwball comedy.

I hadn’t seen the film in several years till I checked out the new blu-ray from The Criterion Collection. It holds up and then some. I’d fathom most movie collectors, especially those who focus on the classic Hollywood era own a copy of this, and seeing it’s been over 20 years since the last home video release, the film was well overdue a big upgrade.

Last released on home video 22 years ago, on DVD in a “flipper case” (remember those?), “Arsenic and Old Lace” has at long last come to blu-ray in a truly exceptional edition from Criterion. Let’s start with the most surprising part of this release.

I recall the film looking good, but I don’t recall it looking so “deep and shadowy” in places. The amount of fine detail that comes out on the new blu-ray is astounding. During some of Grant’s wonderful face exercises, you can see fine little patterns on the tie he’s wearing.

The audio is clear and crisp too, taken from the original optical source. I’d argue that maybe the movie didn’t look this good on the day it opened in theaters in 1944. The bonus material on this disc is light, but not without weight. First, we have an audio commentary with author Charles Dennis, who wrote a book on the history of the play and movie. It’s a well-informed, scholarly

commentary. Rarely are there quiet spots, and the amount of information given is solid. It’s a great listen.

For those of us who have always wondered what Karloff was like in the role of Jonathan Brewster, Criterion has your back with the inclusion of a 1952 radio adaptation with him reprising his Broadway role. The original trailer and an essay by David Cairns round things out. Criterion always does a great job and those of us who have longed for an HD upgrade to “Arsenic and Old Lace” has gotten our wishes and then some. It’s a must-own disc as far as I’m concerned, and perfect viewing for this time of year. See you next week.

Batteries Not Included

To my great surprise, the restoration notes included state that this new 4K restoration was sourced from the original nitrate camera negative.

Nitrate is a highly volatile film stock and can sometimes turn to dust. We are so lucky when a film’s negative still exists.

So what are the results? Well, compared to the old DVD this is a night-and-day experience. The film looks arguably the best it ever has. The film has such a rich and deep image.
