Syrian militants release US journalist from Cambridge Cambridge. American journalist Peter Theo Curtis is relaxing at home with his family. Speaking outside his family’s Cambridge home Wednesday, an American journalist freed this week from two years in the captivity of insurgents in Syria said he was overwhelmed with emotion and thankful to be home safely with his family. Peter Theo Curtis, 45, went missing in 2012 and was held by Nusra Front, al Qaeda’s official wing in Syria, whose rivals, the militant group Islamic State, last week killed New Hampshire native and journalist James Foley. Curtis was released on Sunday and returned to his mother’s home on Parker Street late Tuesday. Around 10:15 a.m. Wednesday, Curtis emerged from the house to briefly address a flock of media. “In the days following my
release Sunday, I learned bit by bit there have been hundreds of people … working on my release,” said Curtis, who sported casual clothes and tousled curly hair. “I had no idea when I was in prison that so much effort was being expended on my behalf. Now that I’ve found out I’m just overwhelmed with emotion. I suddenly remember how good the American people are and what kindness they have in their hearts.” Curtis said he wasn’t ready to answer specific questions, but promised to be present in future interviews. For now, Curtis said, he needed to bond with his family. “Now, I’m so grateful that you are expressing all this interest in me,” said Curtis, drawing a chuckle from reporters. “I’m one of you and I know what you’re going through. I will be there and I will respond [eventually.]”

Release and relief Al Qaeda-linked militants in Syria on Sunday freed Curtis following what officials said were efforts by the Gulf Arab state of Qatar to win his release. The White House said President Barack Obama “shares in the joy and relief that we all feel now that Theo is out of Syria and safe.”

No injuries in South Station derailment
An Amtrak train derailed near South Station on Wednesday. / NICOLAUS CZARNECKI, METRO
Passengers suffered delays in commuter rail service leaving South Station Wednesday afternoon after a low-speed collision caused an Amtrak train derailment. A slow-moving commuter train struck a stopped Amtrak train around 1:30 p.m. at South Station’s rail yard. Both trains were out of service, and no injuries were reported. Following the incident, the MBTA’s Twitter account warned passengers that they

should expect some late trains due to an “incident impeding tracks.” MBTA spokesman Joe Pesaturo said the Amtrak train was rolling out of the maintenance facility and being trailed by a Keolis commuter train, which rear ended the Amtrak train as it was stopped at a signal. Crews were working to rerail the trains and make track repairs Wednesday, Pesaturo said. MORGAN ROUSSEAU

Boston. City cracks down on off-campus move-ins with new inspections Mayor Martin Walsh on Wednesday announced a new inspections initiative he said will help students moving into off-campus housing in Boston’s neighborhoods this year. From Friday until Monday, representatives from various city departments will conduct targeted housing inspections, trash inspections and information drops in student-heavy neighborhoods, Walsh said in an emailed statement. Up to 50 inspectors will canvas Allston, Brighton, Fenway and Mission Hill targeting addresses with a history of violation and randomly inspecting units. “We’re preparing for an efficient and effective student move-in process this year,” said Walsh. “By coordinating across departments, we will assist students moving into and across the city to get settled into safe off-campus housing, and provide them with the tools they need to stay connected with the city all year.” Inspectors will also circulate through Beacon Hill, Back Bay, Dorchester, East Boston, Jamaica Plain,

For most Americans, Monday will be a day of celebrating (or mourning) the end of summer with barbecues, cold beers and a day off from any sort of labor. However, for Bostonians this Labor Day is the perfect storm: 250,000 college students clash with 79 percent of the apartments in Boston having a Sept. 1 move-in/out date. The result is total chaos with U-Haul trucks clogging Comm. Ave., dirty mattresses being thrown from third-floor balconies, and a Jordan’s Furniture worth of loot on every street corner from Brighton to the North End. It’s all that free loot that makes the worst day of the year the best day — It’s going to be a Merry Allston Christmas. According to the Urban Dictionary, “Allston ‘Christmas” refers to the bounty of “new” stuff that one can easily acquire free of cost simply by walking down to the sidewalk and running off with it back into your own apartment.” If your rich uncle never invites you to the Vineyard for Labor Day weekend, then you
For exclusive commentary, visit Metro.us/blogs. know what a mess the streets of Boston become on Sept. 1. But, within that mess are some pure gems. Every year we hear stories of ceramic horse heads finding new homes, and leg lamps being rescued from the rubble of couch cushions — that’s the unexpected joy of Allston Christmas. However, even with the joy of the season I would feel remiss without a few lines of advice: If you’re not moving, then get the hell out of Boston, if you’re “shopping” then always remember that wood, ceramic and plastic are OK, fabric is stinky and, if you are moving, then remember to put the truck in park, and never ever drive it on Storrow Drive. So, this Allston Christmas, whatever you do, please do not take home that couch with an orange sticker on it. Your Allston Christmas will definitely not be merry.

ISIS executes soldiers, takes hostages at Syria base Islamic State militants have executed Syrian army soldiers and are holding a group hostage after capturing an air base in northeast Syria over the weekend, pictures posted on social media by supporters showed on Wednesday. Islamic State, an offshoot of al Qaeda, stormed Tabqa air base near Raqqa city on Sunday after days of fighting with the army that cost more than 500 lives, according to monitoring group the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights. Tabqa was the army’s last foothold in an area otherwise controlled by the militants, who have seized large areas of Syria and Iraq. The United States has carried out air strikes on the group in Iraq and is considering its options in Syria. REUTERS

Captive. Mother pleads to Islamic State leader for her son’s release The mother of an American journalist held captive by militant group Islamic State released a video on Wednesday appealing directly to the group’s leader for his release.
“I am sending this message to you, Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi al-Quraishi alHussaini, the caliph of the Islamic State. I am Shirley Sotloff. My son Steven is in your hands,” Sotloff said in the video. Sotloff, 31, went missing in Syria last year. He was seen in a video released by Islamic State last week showing the decapitation of fellow journalist James Foley. REUTERS

THE SIMMERING SUMMER My wife went on a trip this week, and I had to take her to the airport so early in the morning I assumed she was part of some secret mission to kill a terrorist. “Play nice with the other Navy SEALs,” I said as I dropped her at the curb. “You’re hilarious,” she deadpanned. “You know who else is off this week?” “Who?” “The mailman,” she smirked, hoisting her bag. Spousal travel aside, D.C. can be surprisingly quiet in the summer with everyone who is anyone jetting away to other places. The president takes off for family time, golfing and possibly some lingering bitterness about Hillary Clinton’s book. Members of Congress go home to check in with voters, work their districts for donors and eat barbecue. Lobbyists with nothing else to do sit around Dupont Circle watching

And we media types skulk around complaining about the lack of action. Of course, this won’t last. If history is any guide, at least one of those absent members of Congress is at this very moment getting into some kind of trouble with Twitter, bribery, an escort service or possibly all three. The president has managed to keep his stew pot of crises on a low boil, but the heat is undeniably turning up. Within weeks, D.C. will be shuddering amid the thunderclaps of the midterm elections.

When you need a good cry, do you reach for the movie that’s “based on a true story”? Science says you’re giving your brain far too much credit. According to a new study published in the Journal of Consumer Research, it doesn’t matter whether the story is inspired by actual events or purely fiction once you’ve made an emotional investment. The reverse — going for a novel over a memoir to avoid feeling sad — is also a false assumption, according to the authors from Brandeis and New York universities. “Consumers may choose to read a tragic fictional story because they assume that know-
ing it was fictional would make them less sad than reading a less dramatic but true story,” they write. “However, the fictional nature does not alter the impact of the tragic story, leaving them more emotionally distraught than if they had read the true story instead.” In the study, viewers were shown a movie they were told was fictional. Though this audience reported lower levels of sadness, they had been allowed to take breaks during the screening, which researchers Quoted
“Our results suggest that while emphasizing realism may increase sales, it does not necessarily increase satisfaction.” New study published by the Journal of Consumer Research
theorize could’ve allowed them to remember that the story was not true. In a different study, subjects claimed it would leave them sadder to know that a tragic story they’d just read had really happened rather than being made up. Two other groups read the same story and were told either that it was an accounting of true events or fictional — both felt sad regardless of what they’d been told. The only beneficiaries from this self-delusion, the researchers write, are publishers and movie studios willing to back a project simply because it’s based on a true story. “However, our results suggest that while emphasizing realism may increase sales, it does not necessarily increase satisfaction,” the authors say.

Summer leaves and movies get good again “Guardians of the Galaxy” aside, it’s been a brutal August at the multiplexes — not a happy summer overall, neither for audiences nor for the people hoping to make money off them. The fall is traditionally the time when we turn our brains back on and soak up serious and award-gobbling fare. And that’s here already, amid the usual piles of sequels, remakes and rehashes. Here are 10 that stand out. MATT PRIGGE
1
Who won’t see it?
‘The Hunger Games: Mockingjay — Part 1’
‘Birdman’
Nov. 21
Oct. 17 Michael Keaton plays the former star of a superhero movie struggling to intereact with an all-star cast. This struggle potentially includes old-timey boxing with Edward Norton in his undies. The usually more somber Alejandro Gutierrez Inarritu (“Babel”) directs this prickly comedy, which was made to look like it was done in one take.
It’s some movie about Jennifer Lawrence doing something, so there’s that. But it might even be OK. After a bumpy first, the second ‘Hunger Games’ series got really interesting and even addictive — and then it stopped, almost mid-sentence, and told you it would see you in a year. This first part of part three will do the same — but it does feature the late Philip Seymour Hoffman.
It’s not clear what exactly is going on here between Michael Keaton and Edward Norton in the comedy “Birdman.” / FOX SEARCHLIGHT
2 3
‘The Disappearance of Eleanor Rigby’
Sept. 12 An experimental narrative that will take you three movies and five hours to watch and has nothing much to do with The Beatles, this drama examines a couple’s breakup from her side, his side and then the two together. That the couple is Jessica Chastain and James McAvoy (with assists from Viola Davis, Ciaran Hinds, William Hurt and Isabelle Huppert) should make the prospect easier to accept.
6 7 8 9 10
‘Gone Girl’
‘Fury’
Oct. 3 Author Gillian Flynn herself adapts her twisty page-turner about an exjournalist (Ben Affleck) suspected of killing his MIA wife (Rosamund Pike). Much more exciting, it was directed by David Fincher, who may have a chance to really indulge in his comedic side. Then again, this could be another of Fincher’s immaculately made adaptations of books fathoms beneath him (like “The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo”). After all, the novel is really only great in its first half.
Oct. 17 Brad Pitt leads a crack team on a quest to kill Nazis during WWII. (Wait, didn’t this already happen five years ago?) And yet despite the “Inglourious Basterds”-y premise, this is a different beast, and not only because it features Shia LaBeouf. This will surely keep things closer to real life than Quentin Tarantino’s alternate world fantasy. Then again, Pitt doesn’t tend to do his best work when playing serious. He’s best at comedy, e.g. his Foghorn Leghorn “Basterds” accent.
4 5
“Dear White People” / ASHLEY NGUYEN
‘Dear White People’
‘Listen Up Philip’
Oct. 17 Racial relations are satirized in this well-titled indie about four black kids at an Ivy League school who are nonplussed to discover there’s an African-Americanthemed party thrown by white students.
Oct. 17 Jason Schwartzman plays a cranky, jerkish novelist with a very patient girlfriend (Elisabeth Moss) in the latest from Alex Ross Perry, filmmaker of the delightfully grouchy and rough “The Color Wheel.”
‘Interstellar’
‘Foxcatcher’
Nov. 7 The combination of Matthew McConaughey and Christopher Nolan ought to blow up heads everywhere. Here, they go to space and enter a wormhole for reasons that are being kept fairly close to the chest. Despite the hyper-praise and hyper-criticism Nolan receives, he’s an unquestionably ambitious filmmaker who will surely give us something more than a serious twist on “The Black Hole.” Then again, Nolan can’t do emotion as well as he does smarts.
Nov. 14 This acclaimed drama starring Steve Carell, Channing Tatum and Mark Ruffalo tells the story of the John du Pont murder, in which a paranoid schizophrenic rich kid (Steve Carell) killed an Olympic athlete. Director Bennett Miller is hot off the cooltempered “Moneyball,” while both Carell and Tatum are both due to show off their serious chops. Of course, Miller also made the naggingly reductive and self-satisfied “Capote.”
‘Inherent Vice’
Dec. 12 No stranger to difficult projects, Paul Thomas Anderson takes on Thomas Pynchon, albeit one of the reclusive author’s more accessible works, with Joaquin Phoenix as a P.I. looking for his ex’s boyfriend. And did we mention the bewildering big- time supporting cast includes not just Owen Wilson and Benicio Del Toro, but also Martin Short, Joanna Newsom and Jeannie Berlin? That’s icing on the cake right there.
‘Mr. Turner’
Dec. 19 Filmmaker Mike Leigh (“Topsy-Turvy”) returns to the past once more for this study of J.M.W. Turner (Timothy Spall), a 19th century sea and landscape painter called “the painter of light” well before Thomas Kinkade actually trademarked the term. Turner wasn’t as horrible a person as Kinkade was, but he was grouchy, stubborn, neglected his daughters, took advantage of his adoring maid and spoke largely in musical grunts.

Everything old is new(ish) again Here are the season’s sequels, remakes, rehashes, comic book movies, etc. MATT PRIGGE
Jim Carrey and Jeff Daniels act 20 years younger. / HOPPER STONE
‘The Equalizer’
‘Left Behind’
‘Big Hero 6’
Sept. 26 Type: Movie of a TV show
Oct. 3 Type: Remake
Nov. 7 Type: Comic book movie
The ’80s show about a mysterious ex-intelligence officer who kills criminals is back, now with Denzel Washington fighting a Russian sex ring. But this is less about nostalgia for a show not too many may remember well than about watching Denzel Washington hurt people again.
Oscar-winner and sometime genius Nicolas Cage stars in a modestly budgeted adaptation of Tim LaHaye and Jerry B. Jenkins’ series about what happens after the Christian rapture. Of course, there already was a cheap film series about these awful books. They had Kirk Cameron. At least Cage will freak out.
Instead of going the usual live-action route, the latest Marvel film is actually a cartoon about a young inventor and the giant robot he created to fight crime. The trailers suggest a comics movie that prefers deadpan comedy — including much patient slow burn humor — to thrills.
“Exodus” is “The Ten Commandments” redux. / KERRY BROWN
‘Dumb and Dumber To’
‘Horrible Bosses 2’
‘Exodus: Gods and Kings’
Nov. 14 Type: Really belated sequel
Nov. 26 Type: Unnecessary sequel
Dec. 12 Type: Rehash
Holy crap, “Dumb and Dumber” came out 20 years ago? On the one hand, Carrey hasn’t done his rubber-faced shtick in awhile. On the other, the trailer suggests they wearily revive a lot of gags from the first. And again: “D&D” was 20 years ago?!
It seemed like its own self-contained narrative, but the first one — about three friends (Jason Bateman, Charlie Day and Jason Sudekis) who want to kill their employers — made money, so here’s another one, with everyone back but Colin Farrell.
The trend of big religious movies gets to the tale of Moses (Christian Bale) leading the Jews from Egypt, done by a director (Ridley Scott) who can think as big as “The Ten Commandments”’ Cecil B. DeMille. Then again, Scott also made the surreally dull “Robin Hood.”
Bilbo Baggins (Martin Freeman) looks exhausted. / WARNER BROS.
‘The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies’
‘Annie’
Dec. 17 Type: Threequel
That musical about a plucky orphan (Quvenzhane Wallis) who warms the heart of a rich guy actually named Daddy Warbucks (Jamie Foxx) gets modernized. That’s not a crime, but what is a crime is having Foxx apparently spend most of the film with a rug over his character’s iconic bald melon.
It’s only taken three movies and something like nine hours to adapt a 300-page novel aimed at children, but we did it and now we can go home — after a no doubt prolonged battle with a pretty cool dragon (voiced by Benedict Cumberbatch).
Dec. 19 Type: Rehash
‘Night at the Museum: Secret of the Tomb’ Nov. 19 Type: Threequel What is actually and perhaps regrettably Ben Stiller’s highestgrossing franchise returns again, this time sending his night watchman around the globe for some reason. At least there’s the late Robin Williams as Teddy Roosevelt.

The real ‘Ghostbuster’ Looking back. On the eve of “Ghostbusters”’ theatrical reissue, Ernie Hudson reflects on having his part cut way down. Ernie Hudson remembers the mechanic who had a tattoo of him on his leg. He was buying a car, and the guy went up to him, pulled up his pant leg and there was Hudson as Winston Zeddemore, his character in “Ghostbusters.” “I thought, ‘Wow, that’s different,’” Hudson recalls. Still, his memories are not all fond. Looking back on the film, which turned 30 in June and is now being reissued in theaters, Hudson repeatedly calls it “a mixed blessing.” He’s by turns grateful for his fans
and his co-stars and still hurt at what the studios did to him and what was once a larger role. For starters, there’s the pesky fact that he doesn’t enter the film until past the halfway mark. It wasn’t always that way. “Originally Winston came in at the very beginning and was very involved throughout the whole film,” Hudson recalls. “Winston was the guy who got slimed at the hotel. Winston was the guy who thought of the Marshmallow Man at the end.” When Hudson showed up for the first day, he was shocked by a new script that took out half of his screen time. The reason might be the studio couldn’t get a big name for the part. Rumor has it Eddie Murphy was attached, though director Ivan Reitman has denied that. The snubbing didn’t stop with the shoot. “I remember driving down Sunset Boulevard and seeing the big billboard for
17
The fans
Ain’t afraid of no ghosts Hudson still loves the film and has still had a steady career (he spent years on “Oz,” for one), and notes he can’t go anywhere without people shouting out “Ghostbusters” lines. But he tries to play it pretty cool. “I called Ray Parker Jr. not too long ago,” he says.
“I got his machine and he had the ‘Ghostbusters’ song at the start of the message.” And he doesn’t believe in ghosts — or at least he isn’t into the paranormal scene, the way Dan Aykroyd is. On the subject of ghost hunting, he says, “Winston has a line that fits me perfectly: ‘If there’s a steady paycheck in it, I’ll believe anything you want.’”
Hudson wasn’t always featured in the promo ads for “Ghostbusters.” Ernie Hudson poses with “Ghostbusters” memorabilia at the Michigan Comic Con in 2014. / GETTY IMAGES Remembering Harold Ramis
Hudson is careful to talk about the perks of being in the film, especially working with his three main co-stars. But he does say the late Harold Ramis, who played Dr. Egon Spengler, was his “go-to-guy, the guy who talked me through it. And for that I’ll be eternally grateful to him.”

the first time. There were only three guys on there, and Winston wasn’t included,” he remembers. He was missing from the film’s trailer, and when everyone regrouped for 1989’s “Ghostbusters II,” his role was halved again. He does admit that feeling like an outsider did help with
the role: “Winston is a guy a lot of people, especially average people, related to. He was the guy who wasn’t a scientist. He wasn’t zany; he gets the job done.” MATT PRIGGE @mattprigge

The “Houdini� miniseries airs for two nights starting on Labor Day at 9 on the History Channel. / COLIN HUTTON
For his next trick, another daring escape It’s magic. Adrien Brody says the true triumph of the Houdini story is his ability to escape his impoverished background.
Harry Houdini may be one of the more quintessentially American heroes. He was a Hungarian immigrant who invented a new kind of a career for himself in America on his way to fame and fortune; the term “escape artist� didn’t exist until he created it. It’s this triumph over odds that drew
Magic tricks
Art imitating life Brody did his best to learn as much as he could about Houdini, saying he consulted with magicians David Copperfield and David Blaine to get their input. He was already partway on the path to being Houdini: “I had a lock pick set as a kid. I know how to breach a lot of devices and articulate locks.� But one of Houdini’s skills eluded him: The man could manipulate locks with his toes, a skill Brody attempted but was unable to master.
Quoted
“I had aspirations to be a magician as a boy and was in awe of magic and Houdini.� Brody

Oscar-winner Adrien Brody to take on the role of Houdini in the History channel miniseries biopic “Houdini.� Of course, it helped that Brody had a childhood fascination with the man. “I had aspirations to be a magician as a boy and was in awe of magic and Houdini,� admits Brody. As an adult, his appreciation of the man is a little more nuanced, as Brody points out that Houdini represents quite a lot to people in terms of “escaping the confines of poverty and the social constraints of being an immigrant and overcoming antiSemitism and becoming this heroic, all-American celebrity.� But as a kid, and for a lot of kids during Houdini’s heyday, Houdini was simply a very brave man, proving “you could defy the laws of nature,� as Brody puts it. That said, Houdini’s drive and ambition are nearly obsessive to an adult
viewer, something that is on full display in the miniseries. Asked whether there is any parallel between his own drive as an actor and Houdini’s endless quest to create bigger and better illusions, Brody says, “I share the drive to a certain extent, but not to impress others.� Brody says he thinks Houdini was constantly searching for validation in his work, but that he’d been very fortunate to get that validation at a young age. (Winning an Oscar at 29 will do that for you.) Brody says he admires Houdini’s tenacity in pursuit of his goals, but says it might not be “the most admirable quality.� In the miniseries, it’s certainly a problematic quality for the man, but Brody says he thinks it’s important LISA WEIDENFELD @LisaWeidenfeld lisa.weidenfeld@metro.us

Justin Bieber ’s security guards are tasked with keeping him out of fights he can’t win. / GC IMAGES
Justin Bieber shares his insightful thoughts on American laws
Justin Bieber has probably had better weeks — I mean, I’m just guessing here. First, he tries taking Selena Gomez out for a nice night at arcade funhouse Dave & Buster’s — because of course he would — but he can’t even enjoy a game of “Need for Speed” since a fan tries to snap some cellphone pictures of the pair, sending Bieber into a Wolverine-style rage. Bieber reportedly lunged at the man, grabbing for his phone, but was thwarted by his own security guards before he could make contact.
(Do they get a bonus every time they have to stop Bieber from starting a fight he can’t win?) The police were called, Bieber hit the skids and now he’s being investigated for attempted robbery, theft and battery, since the fan — whom I’m starting to think isn’t such a fan after all — is looking to press charges, according to TMZ. It’s probably nothing really worth worrying about, except Bieber is still on probation for egging his neighbor’s house. Where was his security detail then, huh?

Rodriguez returns to her woman Her summer fling with Zac Efron behind her, Michelle Rodriguez is reportedly seeking comfort back in the arms of model Cara Delevingne, with whom she split before taking up with Efron, according to Radar Online. “Michelle needed to get away from Zac. ... Michelle missed Cara’s company,” a source says. “I wouldn’t be surprised if Cara and Michelle are hooking up again. Cara is a girl — and it’s no secret that Michelle likes that.” Buried within this coy, pursed-lipped tale of possibly Sapphic affection comes the suggestion that recently rehabbed Efron might not be behaving himself as much as his publicist would like you to think: “Cara doesn’t party [like] Zac does,” the source adds. “Part of the reason Michelle and Zac broke up was because she couldn’t handle his partying.”

Jennifer Aniston is sick and tired of everyone asking about her marriage and children plans. “It is such an issue of, like, ‘Are you married yet?

then I’ve failed some part of my feminism or my value as a woman because I haven’t birthed a child. I’ve birthed a lot of things and feel like I’ve mothered many things, and I don’t think it’s fair to put that pressure on people.” Seriously though, people, let’s give her a break. Let’s instead start publicly hounding her fiance Justin Theroux all of these questions.

What women’s desires tell us about love today Real-world love advice
CHARLES J. ORLANDO www.theproblemismen.com Charles J. Orlando is a relationship expert and author of the best-selling book series “The Problem with Women … Is Men.” Find out more about him on his website, or visit him on Facebook for realworld love advice.
Austrian neurologist and father of psychoanalysis Sigmund Freud made this famous statement: “The great question that has never been answered, and which I have not yet been able to answer, despite my 30 years of research into the feminine soul is, ‘What does a woman want?’” If you ask a woman what she wants, her answer will be entirely dependent on highly individualized circumstances: current wants, needs, age, family situation, hormonal status and life experience. The good news for men, however, is that there are some consistencies. Recent research shows that the top five “wants” of women are, in descending order:

What we’re into this week ...
To those women who say, “All men are jerks!” — I think what you mean is that all the men YOU have been involved with are jerks. All men are NOT the same.

Love As social, nurturing creatures, this always tops her list.
• to vent and discuss their thoughts without a man automatically trying to solve their problems.
But much of this is very general and is still rooted in primal mating rituals. After a relationship has grown, some of the mystery disappears. After surveying and connecting with thousands of women on Facebook, they are spilling the beans on what they want from the men in their lives. This is by no means a complete list, but it has much to be considered.
• a man to always remember that he’s a gentleman throughout a relationship, not just when first dating. Above all, the most common response has been that women want men to remember that they have their own wants, needs and desires. Women aren’t just wives, girlfriends and/or mothers — they are women who want to feel desired as women.

Everything to ‘LOSE’ Hot tickets. Cymbals Eat Guitars grieve, grow up and rock out. At its most basic level, a rock band can be thought of as a family, a group of people collectively devoted to a cause. When a band member passes away, even at a band’s genesis, it hits hard. Benjamin High, who was only part of New Jersey indie rock band Cymbals Eat Guitars for less than a year, died seven years ago. Though frontman Joe D’Agostino has said that he’s thought
about his deceased friend every day, he is only now dealing with the loss through his songwriting on the band’s latest album, “LOSE.” “I met Ben at a house show in New Jersey in 2006, my last year of high school. We immediately clicked, and became best friends through AOL Instant Messenger, just talking about music, hanging out and playing music together. And then he ended up playing bass in Cymbals Eat Guitars for a little bit,” says D’Agostino on his rela-
tionship with High. D’Agostino puts an emphasis on close relationships. In between cross-country tours, he lives with his parents, grandparents and elderly dog in Staten Island. “LOSE” isn’t just the first album to deal thematically with a member’s death, it’s the first to include songs that have anything close to traditional pop structures. After the first two Cymbals albums — which explored unusual arrangements, psychedelia and eschewed choruses or repeated lyrics — didn’t have the commercial returns they hoped for, the band decided to experiment with ac-
Cymbals and symbols
Loss of youth Though D’Agostino is only 25, he says “LOSE” also deals with loss of youth: “The rest of the record deals with other types of sojourn, namely the way that music fandom has evolved … how music makes me feel as compared to how it made me feel; a kind of chasing that feeling when I was much younger and trying to write a record that makes me feel that way.”
cessibility. The result is a record that includes harmonica-laced cuts (“XR”), melancholy ballads (“Child Bride”) and guitar pop (“Lifenet”). All are held together by D’Agostino’s soulful, emotion-filled voice. “I wanted to couple the heavy subject matter with music that would make it reach people and tell the story that is really important to me, and to many of my friends who knew Ben and his family,” says D’Agostino.

You could make an analogy to painting — color and texture seem paramount to them as music creators, and their densely-packed, dreamy pop tunes feel like sonic landscapes.

Their ’80shappy sound befits the last wardrobe best. Fans of the Killers should definitely check them out. MATTHEW DINARO

He was outright deceiving and truth-spinning in this Tuesday’s article when he painted a HORRIBLE distortion of President Obama.

The president was NOT that cold cut-and-dry about James Foley’s TRAGIC death! Mr. Sykes, you need to keep your political thoughts to yourself and stick to your personal finance col-

BC hoping momentum carries to 2014 season NCAA. The Eagles made great strides last season but another winning season may prove difficult. As impressive a job as head coach Steve Addazio did in his first season at The Heights, guiding his Boston College Eagles to another winning season in 2014 could very well prove to be a better accomplishment. Addazio has the task of replacing eight offensive starters, including Heisman Trophy finalist Andre Williams, who is now an NFL running back with the Giants. Replacing Williams will certainly be daunting, considering the back was just the 16th player in NCAA history to rush for over 2,000 yards in an individual season, but Addazio is hoping there will be some carryover in the success of the running game with center Andy Gallik, guard Bobby Vardaro and guard Harris Williams returning. “Last year was about setting a new culture, it was about maximizing what we had, getting those seniors to really buy in and become a team again,” Addazio, whose team went 7-6 last year, told BCEagles.com. “Now you have a young group

of guys, along with some of the older guys who are whittled down, the ones that are still here, there’s some talent there. The ones that remain are building an identity … Year 2 is the hardest year.” There is legitimate excitement from Eagles backers about the quarterback position, as Tyler Murphy — a
graduate transfer from Florida — is sure to bring some flash given his ability to run as well as pass. Murphy went 2-4 and passed for 1,216 yards and six touchdowns as a starter with the Gators last year but was slated to be a backup in Gainesville this season, which is his last year of eligibility.
Murphy is expected to help guide along freshman Troy Flutie who, needless to say, has longtime Eagles fans buzzing given his bloodlines (he is the nephew of Doug Flutie and son of Darren Flutie).

What to watch for as the Pats play their final 2014 preseason game Thursday (7:30 p.m., CBS-4) against the Giants at MetLife Stadium:
1
Logan to the airport Patriots players were simply stunned by the news that captain Logan Mankins was traded away Tuesday. “He’s the type of guy … you don’t know if you’ll get that type of teammate ever again,” Patriots safety Devin McCourty said.
It’s easy to look back at the regular season opener against Buffalo in 2003, days after the release of Lawyer Milloy, and recall that the Patriots were not emotionally prepared to win a football game. Thursday’s game against the Giants is only an exhibition, but if players aren’t focused there’s always a greater chance of injury. Beyond the emotional state of the team, the Pats must find a replacement at left guard. Josh Kline is listed as the first-team starter on the Patriots’ website, but it’s unlikely that Bill Belichick has any direct contact with the digital

communications department in Foxboro. Jordan Devey and Marcus Cannon remain options for the job in addition to Kline.

JIMMY GAROPPOLO WILL GET THE START AT QUARTERBACK FOR THE PATS THURSDAY. GETTY IMAGES
About Mallett’s future Some found it odd that Jimmy Garoppolo was named the starter for the Giants game and even stranger that it was hinted that the rookie will likely play the full 60 minutes in New Jersey. But the Patriots have had four full training camps now to look at Ryan Mallett. It’s safe to say they know what they have in the former Arkansas star. But if Garoppolo is again lightsout Thursday, there’s a good

chance the Pats will either deal or release Mallett before Saturday’s 53-man roster deadline. Garoppolo’s overall numbers this pre-season have been tremendous: 26-of-35 for 343 yards, three touchdowns, one interception and a 119.5 average rating.
Gordon suspended The Cleveland Browns will officially be without star wide receiver Josh Gordon for the entire 2014 regular season as the NFL upheld Gordon’s one-year suspension for multiple violations of the league’s substance abuse policy, most recently a failed test for marijuana. Gordon appealed the ruling and met with league officials but after four months of being in limbo, the Browns finally learned of the league’s ultimate ruling on Wednesday.

Final battle The battle at running back is intriguing. It’s seems likely that Stevan Ridley will get the first carry for the Pats Week 1 in Miami, but Shane Vereen got eight carries against the Panthers last week. Then there are the cases of Jonas Gray, James White, Roy Finch and Brandon Bolden. MATT BURKE

Red Sox oense has been steady through August While the Red Sox pitching sta is in shambles, they are trotting out an impressive, veteran-laden lineup day-in and day-out. It’s not the norm for
a team sitting 18 games out of ďŹ rst place in late August, so it’s possible the Sox really are putting their best foot forward as they seek to ďŹ nd the right lineup for 2015. Dustin Pedroia drove in four runs in Boston’s 11-7 win over Toronto on Tuesday and David Ortiz was back in the lineup for
