A WORD FROM LARRY
Goodbye to a local icon
Master McGrath’s
I would like to share this with our readers about a legend in her on way. Hampton Beach lost an icon on Aug. 2. After nearly 40 years on the Boardwalk at the Casino at Hampton Beach, Larry Marsolais Elizabeth Moreau, 73, a resident of Salisbury, Mass., died of a stroke on Monday night. Most everyone knew her as the “Shooting Gallery Lady.” Whether you are a local or a tourist, if you have been to the boardwalk you have seen Liz. Elizabeth signified the beginning of summer for many visitors to Hampton Beach. She was the face of the Hampton Beach Shooting Gallery. Petite and elegant, with her silver hair tucked behind a signature silk head scarf, she presided over some 300 flashing, roaring targets.

Over the years, Elizabeth became synonymous with the Shooting Gallery her husband Robert cultivated, so much so that she was recognized everywhere she went. She and her husband went to Florida one time, and somebody said, ‘Hey, you’re from Hampton Beach, aren’t you? You run the shooting gallery!” Elizabeth was always eager for another long day at the gallery. She would stay as late as she could, heading home around 11 p.m. most of the time. Every night, Robert said, she would come home happy, with new stories from the boardwalk. She will be missed. As always, I would love to hear from our readers. Feel free to call anytime at 603-935-5096 to discuss local issues or to place an ad. Larry Marsolais is the general manager of the Seacoast Scene and the former president of the Hampton Rotary Club.

All aboard the Captain’s Lady
Cruise helps raise money for Salisbury library By Vinny Manfrate
vinny@seacoastscene.net
Sail out of Newburyport with the Friends of the Salisbury Public Library on Friday, Aug. 12, from 7 to 10 p.m. The three-hour cruise will feature music, dancing, a cash bar, raffles and more. The cruise will be on board the Captain’s Lady III, costs $30 per person and is a 21-andover event. Tickets are available at the Salisbury Public Library. “The Friends of the Salisbury Public Library are always looking for interesting fundraising ideas,” said Terry Kyrios, director of the Salisbury Public Library. “The head of fundraising for the new library came to us with the idea to do a cruise on the Captain’s Lady III and we had a ball. We made money and had a wonderful cruise.” The success of last year’s cruise drove Kyrios and the Friends of the Salisbury Library to repeat the event this year. With many activities going on throughout the night, there won’t be a dull moment according to Kyrios. There will be a DJ spinning dance-friendly music throughout the night and several raffles. Last years top

prize was the winner’s pick of 10 lobsters, donated by a local lobsterman. “It’s important to note that the winner did not have to take them home that night. We almost had hand-to-hand combat over that prize,” Kyrios joked. “This year’s prizes will surely match that.” According to Kyrios, events and fundraisers such as this are very important for
the Salisbury Public Library. The funds raised help the Friends of the Salisbury Public Library put on community events, author presentations, summer reading programs and other forms of educational entertainment for library goers, especially since the new library building opened in a year ago in October. “These fundraisers for the Friends help
support and promote the library and pay for things that are outside the regular scope of the library’s budget,” she said. “In fact, the Friends have been so successful that they won the 2015 Board of Library Commissioners Fantastic Friends of the Library award.” Kyrios said that events such as the sunset cruise help establish a community presence surrounding the library and bring people together for good causes, fun and education. “People in the community are welcome to come for an event [at the library],” she said. “Since we’ve been open we’ve had author speakers, Irish step dancing and a couple of art shows as well. I’m fortunate to have one of the best groups of Friends of the Library going. They are dedicated, committed, hard-working and they are a joy to work with.” The Salisbury Public Library is located at 17 Elm St., Salisbury, Mass. Tickets may be purchased there. Visit salisburylibrary. com or call 978-465-5071 for more information. Captain’s Lady III will be leaving from the Newburyport Waterfront next to the Black Cow Restaurant (54 Merrimac St., Newburyport, Mass.)

Boogie, paddle or surf the waves

By Vinny Manfrate
vinny@seacoastscene.net
Splashing in the ocean sans equipment is one way to enjoy the waves, but if you’re looking to up the fun ante, try grabbing a board — boogie, paddle or surf. The New Hampshire and northern Massachusetts coastline may not be known for huge, surfable swells, but there are enough sizeable waves that hanging 10 is definitely possible, boogieboarding is a blast and paddleboarding is a challenging balancing act. Several board shops along the coast shared some advice to help you catch the perfect wave.
Know before you go
Anyone interested in getting on the water on any type of board is always welcome at the board shops. Patrick Hall, owner of Northeast Board Culture, recommends only that you come into the shop with a desire to learn. “Everybody is welcome and we try to teach them safety and water etiquette for sure,” Hall said. “We try to reach out to people and teach them face to face.” Cinnamon Rainbows owner Dave Cropper also emphasizes safety. He recommends either getting a lesson or to heading out with an experienced boarder to make sure you don’t put yourself or

others in harm’s way. “I think a great way to get started is to get a lesson or go out with somebody that can get you started in the right direction,” he said, “so you can learn how to have fun and be safe. Whether it’s surfing, paddleboarding, boogie-boarding or whatever, safety always comes first.”

Seacoast swells
With miles of beach from Salisbury, Mass., all the way up to the Maine border, the Seacoast has plenty of places to stop and catch waves. “We’re really lucky to have this little stretch of coast that we have,” Cropper said, “and when the surf gets good, it gets really good.” The experts at Cinnamon Rainbows and Northeast Board Culture both said that with time, patience and maturity, boarders will be able to pick out the spot the works best for them. “We are pretty lucky,” Hall said. “We have about 16 miles of beach from Salisbury to Maine, and I mean we have really killer beach breaks here and we also have some great point breaks, which are more advanced.” Beach breaks are when a surfable wave (or swell) breaks on the beach. Point breaks are when the swell breaks farther off the coast off rocky, sandy or coral bottoms. Point breaks can usually make for a longer surf ride. “What happens on point breaks is that the big swells are coming through — there’s more of a channel to get out,” Hall said. “But it’s more for the guys who are out there and know more of what they are doing. Even beach breaks can get heavy as well.” Hall said other factors such as swell and wind direction also come into play and that feeling out these factors is part

of the learning experience. “You just have to learn that as you mature, where to be at the right time,” he said. “It comes down to wind, swell, tides and all of that kind of stuff.”
Try something new
It may be intimidating to head to a local board shop and try something completely new, whether it’s paddleboarding or surfing or even boogie-boarding or skim boarding. But Hall said no one should be intimated to come in to a local shop and talk to an expert.

PADDLEBOARDING
109495
In recent years, paddleboarding has surged in popularity as a recreational activity on the East Coast and our own Seacoast region. According to Hall, usually ocean activities start in Hawaii and then make their way to the West Coast and eventually to the East Coast. He said the paddleboarding trend has been great for the region. “It’s great for our industry,” Hall said. “Guys who were just making a living off of surf of surf rentals can now do paddleboard rentals, lessons and tours. It helps us a lot. The big swing was probably six or seven years ago; that’s when the paddleboard revolution hit the East Coast.” According to Hall, the learning curve with paddleboarding is a little bit easier than surfing, as the boards tend to be a little bit bigger. Plus, you can use them more often than a surfboard and in more spots along the seacoast. “You can actually go out in the back river [behind Seabrook Harbor and Northeast Board Culture] with what we call High Tide
River Ride as a tour that we actually do here,” Hall said. “You can actually flow and go with the current, moving from one spot to another. I think they are a little more versatile than your average surfboard.” On a paddleboard, boarders are able to catch smaller waves, according to Hall. A knee-high wave on a 10-foot paddleboard is easier to catch than on a nine-foot surfboard because the paddle allows you to control the board much more easily. It’s also a little bit of a different workout. “If you’re getting really good on your paddleboard, it crosses over with surfing and makes the boards easier to ride,” Hall said. “Your balancing is better and you use all these little foot and core muscles.” When using a paddleboard, Hall asks that boarders respect their fellow surfers who are also on the water trying to catch swells, as paddleboards have a 10-foot leash and long paddle that may get in other people’s way. “Use caution with that, but generally it’s an easier process to learn,” Hall said.

“Just come in and ask questions,” Cropper said. “Get all the knowledge you need and get a lesson and find out. That’s what the lessons are there for. We’re not going to take you out on a day when the surf is big and rough; we want to set you up for success.” According to Cropper, most trainers will take beginners out on a warm, sunny day, where the surf is small and easy to get used to. Having fun is the goal. “Start on a smaller day and remember not to get to overwhelmed; you can’t get
too frustrated.” Hall said. “Seventy-five percent of something like surfing is paddle power and wave knowledge. It takes a lot of techniques and practice. You have to stick with it and you have to really want it, have drive and go for it.” Hall recommends that once you have your equipment and basic knowledge, you just keep going out and practicing at a beginner’s PATRICK HALL spot, such as small beach breaks, and work your way up from there. Hall stressed patience and tenacity when it comes to evolving.
You have to stick with it and you have to really want it, have drive and go for it.

Once you feel comfortable on a board, Hall recommends paddling out to white water, where you will get the more challenging workout. “Once you have your equipment, it’s right there for you,” Hall said. “You don’t have to pay for a lift ticket. It’s an easy thing for you to just go and do. You know, paddle, you can always go out there and work out and just paddle and paddle and paddle.”

The lessons offered by the seacoast board shops start with the very basics. “It’s a good lesson just about water,” Hall said. “It teaches you to not panic in any kind of situation that could be intimidating because once you panic you lose

all sense of training, thought process and all your logic just kind of goes out the window.” According to Hall, wiping out or breaking your leash on some heavy swells can lead to panic; the key is to maintain your logic and keep calm. It takes a lot of a training to get to that level, and Hall said the lessons help with confidence to keep calm in a stressful situation. According to both Hall and Cropper, activities out on the water also teach you respect for many aspects surrounding the activity. Things such as surfer right-ofways, water etiquette and respect for the ocean are translated through the activity. “You have to be grateful and respect mother nature and the opportunities we have here,” Hall said. “Something

[else] you need to remember is etiquette for other surfers or paddleboarders out there.” If you’re a beginner paddleboarder or a beginner surfer, it’s important to know that the right-of-way on a wave goes to the person who is closest to the peak of the swell. Ignoring this rule can be dangerous for yourself and the people around you. “It’s kind of like golf; you don’t want to walk over someone else’s line.” Hall said, “It creates tension and can be dangerous for people as well. Some guys are more knowledgeable than you and they will help you but if you don’t have the etiquette and respect deserved, that will start you on the wrong foot. Just remember that there are other people out there with you.”
Appeal
There are many reasons to get out on the coast on a surfboard, boogie board
or paddleboard. According to Hall, the ocean offers a peace that can’t be replicated. It’s a time to be out on the board by yourself or with a group of friends without the hassles of daily life or technology. “You get a lot of time to yourself,” he said. “There’s no cell phones out there or traffic jams, you’re just one with the water and mother nature and it's just kind of all flowing together. You know, there could be a raging seven-foot wave but it's just kind of about being at peace with it.” For both Hall and Cropper, it’s an uplifting experience. “It’s one of those things where no matter what level you are at, you’re having fun,” Cropper said. “If it’s your first day, you’re out in the water, splashing around and having fun, and if you’ve been surfing your whole life, it’s just a blast. It’s definitely a passion and a lifestyle. We have a really tight surfing community year round.”

Our first year, we bought them all used, and last summer we started buying them all new. We sold the last of the used ones at the end of the last season, and this year they came out with a new model and engine. They now use Vespa engines, which are a lot easier to work on and the mechanics are a lot better.

Well, we are trying to open up a rental place in Florida so that’s the next stop. Hopefully we can do that by the end of the year. Their seasons are different; basically their busy season is from October to May and at the end of the summer we put them in storage anyway, so instead we are trying to bring them down there.

CAR TALK
Ray offers a couple of final suggestions before Eldorado is ditched Dear Car Talk: I hope you know what is wrong with my 2002 Cadillac Eldorado. I can be going 70 mph (or 50 or 40) around corners, and it will slam on the brakes and By Ray Magliozzi reduce my speed 40 to 20 mph. I have had the steering-angle sensor replaced, and it still had the problem. I took it to a GM dealer, and he replaced the yaw sensor and thought it was fixed. But it did it to me again; we were on a mountain pass with no pull-overs and with semi trucks behind us and next to us, we were going 70 miles an hour, and the car slammed on the brakes and reduced our speed to 40 mph before the brakes released. Help me! — Arlene The 2002 Eldorado has a stability-control system, and I’m guessing that’s what your dealer is focusing on. The stability-control system monitors various sensors: the steering angle, the yaw (side-to-side movement) of the car, the comparative rotational speed of the wheels, the pedal inputs, throttle position, vehicle speed and digestive systems of each rear-seat passenger. And if it senses that the car is no longer going where the driver is pointing it (if it skids or starts to flip over),
the stability control uses individual brakes, via the anti-lock braking system, to try to bring the car back under control. Your dealer’s theory is that one of the sensors is sending a crazy reading to the computer when the car is turning at high speed. That makes the computer think the car is careening out of control, when it’s really not. It therefore takes evasive measures until it senses that the car is under control again. So your dealer has replaced a couple of sensors and crossed his fingers. If this were my family member, I’d just leave the car with the dealer and tell him to drive it until he figures it out. I wouldn’t risk this happening again. But if you’re feeling daring, you should encourage your dealer to approach it scientifically. You can have him start by temporarily disabling the electronic safety systems. He can do that by disconnecting any of the four anti-lock braking system sensors. There’s a sensor at each wheel, and if any one of them is disconnected, the ABS and stability-control systems will shut down. That means you’ll be driving without the benefit of ABS or stability control. But if the phantom braking happens even with the electronic systems disconnected, then you can rule out the electronic systems. Then it’s a mechanical problem, like the brake master
cylinder or the power-brake booster, and you can replace those parts. If the problem goes away with stability control disconnected, then you know that the ABS or stability-control system is at fault. In that case, the next thing I’d ask the dealer to replace is the computer. If it’s not an individual sensor, then it’s probably the brains. The computer is expensive, but you might be able to persuade him to “work with you” by mentioning that you’ve already given his contact number to your next of kin. The truth is, your dealer can put a new computer in your car and let you drive around with it for 30 or 60 days. And if the problem goes away, you can pay him for the computer and drive without your heart in your throat. If the problem doesn’t go away at that point, and you’re still alive, Arlene, he can put the computer back on the shelf, not charge you for it, and you can get rid of the car. If he can’t fix this quickly, I’d stop rolling the dice with this Eldorado. Dear Car Talk: For over 50 years, I have been using hot water to remove snow and ice from my windshield. It not only removes the ice quickly, but slightly warms up the glass, so it fogs less when I start driving. It seems that every-
Joe's-Seacoast_Layout 1 6/20/16 2:46 PM Page 1
one who hears that I do this says it will crack the glass. But it has never cracked my glass, even in 5-degree weather when I lived in South Dakota. Not even when there were chips in the glass. So, are the naysayers wrong, or have I just been lucky in the hundreds of times I have done this? — Mike I think they’re wrong, Mike. I’ve found automotive glass to be extremely tough. Windshields have expansion zones in them — the area with all those dots, around the edges of the glass. So they’re designed to expand and contract. I’ve never had occasion to pour boiling water on a windshield (and you just say the water is hot, not boiling), but I’ve poured hot water on a car many times, and I’ve never seen a windshield break. And I can think of some real-life examples where windshields are subject to quick temperature changes: In the winter when you go to the car wash and your cold windshield gets blasted with hot water and soap, and a blow dryer. Or in the summer, when a sudden thunderstorm rains 50-degree water down on a 130-degree windshield. So I think you’re OK. The bigger danger is slipping on the ice on your way out to the car, and dumping hot water on your lap. Visit Cartalk.com.

We typically get around 400 people each day at our library — adults, parents and children, they come here to check out books, use a computer or our copier, or to attend a library program. During the summer, do you see a lot more or fewer people? Do you see a lot of tourists? We’re definitely busier over the summer months — about 100 people more daily — with families coming in to find books, videos or puzzles to take home. They are also happy to get discounted museum passes. We have strong attendance at the programs we offer for summer reading. … This year, we’ve had everything from Peter Boie, a magician, to juggling classes. We do see many of the same people each summer who are here to vacation at Hampton Beach. They’re a welcome addition to our usual regulars.

I try to stay on top of the latest trends — most recently, for instance, our library was marked as a Pokemon Go gym.

Looking ahead, what new programs or services do you envision at the library? What changes might be on the horizon? We’re always looking at new ways to engage our patrons.

I’ll be working on a strategic plan within the next year that will have me going out into the community to gather data through questionnaires and surveys.

Our next big change will be a building renovation to incorporate new, bigger windows in the children’s room and a small meeting room. … There [are] wonderful changes on the horizon for libraries. We’re evolving into not just a place to pick up a book, but a place for our community to gather. We hope to encourage that growth and be a place anyone feels they can walk in, learn, explore and play.

Kid time
Children’s festival returns to Hampton By Jocelyn Humelsine news@seacoastscene.net
Ocean Boulevard and Hampton Beach will become the stage for a made-formini-people Mardis Gras from Aug. 15 to Aug. 19 as the annual Children’s Week Festival returns. “It’s a major week for us,” said John Kane, marketing director for the Hampton Beach Village District. “It started as a carnival when I was a young, young kid. There was always a big parade with floats and papier-mâché; we’d all walk together from J Street all dressed up. Then over the years it turned into a children’s event, where more and more things are geared toward kids.” Again this year, it’s time for the children to shine and for the adults to become young in spirit. All summer long the Hampton Beach Village District hosts Monday night movies, nightly Seashell Stage concerts and Wednesday night fireworks, to name a few. Add to this face painting, dancing, artwork, ice cream, and costumes, and you’ve got the Children’s Week Festival. “The parade is big for us,” Kane said. “All the children dress up as everything: Minions, lifeguards, jellyfish, sailors.

Last year Elsa was big. All the kids get to walk in the parade, and we have costumes anyone can wear if they don’t have one,” Kane said. “The most elaborate I’ve seen was a Whack-a-Mole costume. The parents got extremely creative and spent a lot of time putting that one together.” A true community event, the parade,
SEACOAST SCENE | AUGUST 11 - 17, 2016 | PAGE 30
which begins at 10:15 a.m. on Friday at Hampton Beach State Park, brings all sectors of the beach scene together. “Everyone’s involved: the police horses, rescue trucks, lifeguard ATVs, children and parents, and they march from the state park to the Seashell Stage. Afterward, every child gets to go on stage and pick
out a prize, and they’re not chintzy. There are T-shirts, footballs, beach bucket sets, things like that. Kids get a major kick out of it,” Kane said. The events start at 10 a.m. each day and go to at least 4 p.m. “And the best part about Children’s Week, as well as the usual movies, fireworks, the beach, the Seashell concerts, everything is absolutely free. People are always amazed by that,” Kane said. Dan Grady’s Marvelous Marionettes, Bracken School of Irish Dance, Drumming with Tony Fonseca, Wayne from Maine, and the Extreme Air Jump Rope Team are just a few of the popular acts appearing throughout the week. Ronald McDonald will be giving out free ice cream as well. “The whole week is just filled with activities,” Kane said. While Friday’s parade is the event’s grand finale, the next biggest thing is a competition to come up with the 2017 Children’s Week slogan as well as an image for a bumper sticker. The kids are divided into two age groups. “We usually select the bumper stickers from the older kids, so there’s no stick figures,” Kane joked, “and then the younger kids also try to think what next year’s slogan should be.” The two winners of the competition each receive a brand-new bike as first prize — and the honor of having created the slogan for next year’s festival, where the tradition of having good old-fashioned fun will continue.

A feast for the soul
Italian food the star of local couple’s fundraiser By Jocelyn Humelsine news@seacoastscene.net
It’s more than a month before the Sept. 25 Jimmy Fund Walk, but if you want to practice your pre-game carb-loading, join Jane Nunes and her husband Frank Campolo of Hampton on Thursday, Aug. 18, from 6 to 9 p.m. at the Victoria Inn Bed & Breakfast in Hampton as they host a self-catered Italian Feast benefit to raise awareness and funds for their team, the J Walkers. “Last year, our mighty band of 18 members was recognized as a Top Team for raising $10,500 through donations and corporate matching. With any luck this year, we hope to beat this total,” Nunes said. This foodie event was the brainchild of Nunes’ husband. Having won two lobster bakes at benefit auctions for Seacoast Youth Services last year, Campolo paid it forward by hosting a lobster bake for 50 people to benefit the Jimmy Fund and the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute. After that success, they’re keeping the momentum this year with another food-related fundraiser. “Our Italian Feast theme was inspired by my husband, who is Italian and loves to cook,” Nunes said. “We’ve hosted a few sports dinners and family gatherings over the years with positive reviews and have even staged our home as a restaurant for our sons as a cost-effective dining experience before their high school semi-formals.” Hailing from Reggio di Calabria, Italy, the Campolo family settled in Springfield, Make your own Italian feast Frank’s Marinara Sauce 2 cans Cento crushed tomatoes 2 cans Pastene ground peeled tomatoes A nice Chianti 1 large onion, diced (save some for the meatballs) Minced garlic Red pepper flakes Italian seasoning Salt Bay leaves Saute onions, garlic, red pepper flakes and Italian seasonings. Add a glass of Chianti (and pour one for yourself) and simmer. Add crushed tomatoes, ground peeled tomatoes, and add more Chianti. Season again, add two bay leaves and salt, and bring to a medium boil. Simmer for 30 minutes.
Massachusetts. Campolo’s grandfather (Frank), his father (also Frank), uncle, and aunts owned and operated Campolo’s Italian Market in downtown Springfield for many years. Growing up in a traditional Italian family of six boys, Campolo didn’t spend much time in the kitchen. “I’m an amateur chef, self-taught with family recipes. I worked as a country club manager in my younger days and helped out our chef many times with weddings and various events; often when the chef Campolo Family Meatballs 2 20-ounce packages 85/15 ground turkey 1/4 cup onion, finely diced 2 tablespoons minced garlic Red pepper flakes 1/2 cup bread crumbs Salt and pepper 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese 1 egg Add ingredients to a bowl with the turkey, mix with your hands, and make one large ball. If the mixture is too wet, add additional bread crumbs. Roll small 2-ounce balls from mixture and drop into simmering sauce. Cook for 20 minutes and stir a few times once meatballs firm up in the sauce. Enjoy over pasta as a meal or fresh arugula or baby spinach as an appetizer. Yields: Sauce makes about 1/2 pot and meatballs about 20, depending on how large you roll them. All seasonings are approximate and you should adjust to taste.

On offer are Quicksilver Fine Jewelry, gift cards from 3 Sisters Consignment Boutique, Las Olas Taqueria, The Community Oven, and Market Basket, and products from Kintempo Hair Salon. Come Sept. 25, Nunes will walk the Boston Marathon Jimmy Fund Walk in honor of her own fight against cancer. “I was diagnosed with liposarcoma in 2005. There are only 5,000 cases yearly, so rather than interacting with liposarcoma patients, I found myself depending on survivors who had recovered from other types of cancer,” Nunes said. One of those individuals was Janis Merrow of Hampton, who, according to Nunes, helped her focus on the business of treatment and the celebration of living. Merrow also founded the J Walkers after she battled breast cancer. “Frank and I walk each year in celebration of the hope I was given on my journey, in honor of the researchers who work tirelessly to find a cure and in memory of those who are no longer with us. It is our time to take pause, live the moment and to move forward with another year of appreciation for the time we have,” Nunes said. The walk offers the full marathon course at 26.2 miles, a half-marathon, a 10K or a 5K. “We choose the 13.1-mile route because it is long enough to experience
the event in all of its glory, yet it is short enough to recover quickly to return daily activities without limping,” she joked, adding that members sometimes join in at the 5-mile or 3-mile mark. Each participant of the Jimmy Fund Walk is required to raise at least $300 to participate in the event. Forever the achiever, Nunes has given herself a personal fundraising goal of $1,500, for which she’ll contribute her own handmade chance item with a very cool backstory. “I won a year’s supply of Cape Cod Potato Chips at last year’s Jimmy Fund Walk for recruiting new members on our team. I had always admired candy wrapper bags, so I decided to make myself a tote bag with the empty [chip] bags. The bag has gotten so much attention that I’ve decided to make a smaller version to raise money for this year’s walk,” she said.

After four and a half years of brewing in rented space, Great Rhythm Brewing Co. will finally have a brewery to call home. The new brewery, located on Bartlett Street in the west end of Portsmouth, will hold its grand opening on Saturday, Aug. 13, with new beer releases, beer flights and products available for purchase. It’s a highly anticipated event for the nearly 2,000 Great Rhythm fans who have been following its Facebook page since construction got underway last fall. Brewery founders Scott Thornton and his wife Kristen have been posting updates and photos of their progress every week. “Since we’ve been [under construction] here the past few months, people have been stopping in and asking, ‘When are you opening?’” Scott Thornton said. “That’s a neat thing to hear. A lot of people are excited about it.” The 11,000-square-foot facility includes a 10-barrel brewhouse, fermentation tanks, a canning line, a keg washer, a warehouse and cold storage area, a lab and water treatment space. Eight hundred square feet belongs to an open concept tasting room overlooking North Mill Pond on one side and the brewery on the other, with a giant window where visitors can observe the brewing process. “It’s much like one of those restaurants where you can see your food being prepared,” Thornton said. “There’s an excitement to that. People want to see that interaction.” The tasting room will feature four taps to start and has two 12-foot communal tables to seat groups of friends or serve as a space for socializing with new people. There are also some smaller tables to accommodate families; Thornton said the brewery is intended to be a family-friendly environment. Prior to Great Rhythm, Scott had worked in the industry for many years as a commercial brewer. “I always loved beer and homebrewing and really enjoyed the mechanical side to everything,” he said. “I was brewing for other companies and helping them realize what they were trying to achieve, but [my wife and I] knew we wanted to start our own, and it was one of those moments when we just said, ‘Let’s do it,’ and decided to dive in head first. Four years later, here we are.” They first started brewing at Mercury Brewing Co. in Ipswich, Mass., but wanted to “bring brewing closer to home,” Thornton said, so they moved their operations to the original Smuttynose Brewing Co. facility on Heritage Avenue in Portsmouth. Even without its own facility, Great Rhythm has become a familiar name in the New Hampshire beer scene with products available at retail loca-

tions throughout the state and appearances at many local beer festivals. Their trademark brew, Resonation, is a dry hop American-style pale ale. Other brews in their collection include American IPAs Hop Harvest and Hopstock IPA and double IPA Doublestop, an amber ale called AMPLIFIED and an American stout called Grateful Stout. “Our philosophy is to showcase the hops flavor and aroma,” Thornton said. “We try to make all our beers really approachable in the sense that you can have a few of them because they’re modest in terms of alcohol by volume, but still have lots of flavor.” Another characteristic of Great Rhythm beers is that they are canned. Cans, Thornton said, act like “a mini keg” and are more protective than glass bottles against light and oxygen, which can compromise the freshness of the beer. They’re also more practical for people with active lifestyles. “Great Rhythm originated from the idea of living life to the fullest and enjoying time with friends, music and local craft beer,” he said. “For hiking or concerts at outdoor venues, places that don’t allow glass typically allow cans, so from our brand’s perspective, we’d hate for people to be limited because [the beer] can’t travel where they want to go.” The grand opening will feature Resonation plus the new beer releases on tap and packs of 16-ounce cans available for purchase. The new brews are a surprise, Thornton said, but will follow the same hops-forward style as Great Rhythm’s existing lineup. In the future, Great Rhythm may offer things like food options in the tasting room and guided tours of the brewery, but Thornton said they’re taking things one step at a time. “Right now, it’s just about getting the doors open and being able to share our new space with everyone,” he said. “That’s the most exciting thing.” Great Rhythm Brewing Co. grand opening When: Saturday, Aug. 13, noon to 8 p.m. Where: 105 Bartlett St., Portsmouth Visit: greatrhythmbrewing.com

KB’s Bagel and Java (72 King’s Highway, North Hampton, N.H., 603926-1877, kbsbagelandjava.com) is a local favorite, just a short walk from the beach in North Hampton. With couches, chairs and tables for an escape from the heat and outdoor
the seating, KB’s is a great spot to relax with its surf culture atmosphere. The Scene caught up with Allison Herlehy, general manager of KB’s, to talk about what it’s like to run a laid-back coffee, sandwich and bagel shop on the Seacoast.
How long has KB’s Bagel and Java been open? KB’s has been open for 10 years. It was originally known as JDs, and it switched ownership to now be known as KB’s. I think that was about six years ago. What do you think makes KB’s unique? We have a great local following. We have a lot of surf decor, which makes for a great relaxed atmosphere so we get a lot of kids hanging out here. It’s definitely a spot where people come hang out after the beach or after surfing. I think our that our clientele is what makes us most unique. What is a necessary skill when operating a coffee and bagel shop? Customer service, absolutely. Just having a good customer service base for our employees definitely helps a lot because here you are at three stations, so your talking individually to a person at each station when you’re ordering at the register or ordering a coffee.
What is your personal favorite item on the menu? Definitely our ice mocha. It’s a mudslide and English toffee coffee mixed with chocolate and milk.
What sandwich would you recommend? It depends on what you like. Our egg sandwiches are awesome. The Chi Chi is definitely a favorite, with salsa and jalapeños. As far as a bagel goes, like a French toast bagel with cinnamon sugar butter is a favorite.
If you could serve any celebrity, who would it be? Oh man, that’s a tough one. Gigi Hadid. She’s an inspiration to me so I would definitely say her. It would be fun to meet her.

Recipe 1 Pinot grigio (we used Cupcake brand), about 1/3 bottle Frozen pineapple (about 1½ cups) Ice as needed for texture
Comments: This slushy was called “very refreshing” with a clean and fruity finish. It was also noted that the alcohol was not very noticeable. Overall rating: 3.7
Recipe 2 Pinot grigio (we used Cupcake brand), about 1/3 bottle Frozen pineapple (about 1½ cups) Frozen fruit medley (strawberries, peaches, pineapple, mango, red grapes) Juice of two lime wedges Triple sec (about 1½ shots) Ice as needed for texture
Comments: We used Recipe No. 1 for the base of this slushy and then added the other ingredients. Overall, this is a good recipe if you don’t want something too sweet. My family noted that it was tart but seemed to be missing one more note of something. You could adjust the amount of triple sec based on how light or strong you want it and how much alcohol you want to taste on the finish. Overall rating: 3
Recipe 3 Pinot grigio (we used Cupcake brand), about 1/3 bottle Polar Watermelon Margarita seltzer (about half a can) Strawberry nectar (about half a can) Frozen fruit medley (about 1½ cups) Juice of two lime wedges Orange juice (about 1 cup) Ice as needed for texture
Comments: For this recipe, we started with a non-alcoholic base and made a slushy for my cousin, sans pinot grigio. The flavored seltzer worked well here and brought out different fruit notes, so if you are looking for a “mocktail” slushy for children or others who don’t drink, this one works well. This was my mom’s favorite recipe and was called the best recipe for a hot summer day. My uncle called it “fresh and well balanced.” Overall rating: 4
Recipe 4 Cook’s brand Spumante (about 1/3 bottle) Frozen peaches Ice as needed for texture
flavor even though there were no apples or apple juice in it. The combination brought out apple notes in the spumante, which is on the sweeter end of the spectrum when it comes to sparkling wine. This recipe received mixed comments from my family of judges. Overall rating: 3.5

My family takes an annual vacation in August and for the past couple years we have used this time together to try out recipes. In the past we have tested sangria recipes, but I have been seeing a lot of wine slushie recipes on social media and decided I wanted to give them a try, so we got out the blender and began taste testing. I really like sangria, but to make a good batch you need several ingredients and should typically let it set for a couple hours or overnight to let the flavors harmonize. This is not the case with wine slushies. A few of our recipes (included below) only required a blender
and three ingredients, one being ice. Plus, they are very refreshing when you have had a long day in the sun and can easily be customized to fit your tastes. With the help of my cousin Lauren, I whipped up five different recipes and asked family members to see if they could identify what was in each one, give their feedback and rate each recipe on a scale of one to five, with five being their favorite. Here are our recipes and the ratings. It is important to note that we were making smaller batches than I would make normally for a group (about half a blender full versus a whole one), and the amounts are approximate. Also, the amount of ice can be adjusted based on how you want the slushy — less for a thicker one, more for more liquid.
Recipe 5 Cook’s brand spumante, about 1/3 bottle One nip tangerine vodka Frozen peaches & fruit medley (about 2 cups) Mango nectar, about half a can Ice as needed for texture
Comments: This recipe was the overall favorite and had the best consistency. The blend of ingredients gave it a creamy texture. The addition of the tangerine vodka gave it a slightly more alcoholic finish than the others, but it was still subtle enough that it wasn’t overpowering. Overall rating: 4.5

Homegrown art Hampton group showcases local artists By Scott Murphy
news@seacoastscene.net
Just a few years ago, Hampton artists had to look to places like Exeter and Portsmouth to find a suitable venue to display their work. Unsatisfied with this setup, local watercolor painter Linda Gebhart and her husband John founded the Hampton Arts Network in 2010 with the simple purpose of showing Hampton what its artists have to offer. “Artists just want a chance to show their work,” said John Gebhart, who is also HAN’s treasurer. Originally, HAN focused on fleshing out its network and publishing a monthly newsletter of gallery opportunities in the region, something the network has continued to provide. HAN also worked out an arrangement with the Town of Hampton to display its artists’ work in the town hall. Each month, a different member’s work occupies their allotted space. It wasn’t until 2014 that HAN’s desire for a dedicated art gallery in Hampton finally came to fruition. Unable to sell a vacant space in the Oceanside Mall, owner Duane “Skip” Windemiller offered the space to HAN rent-free, asking only for the price of electricity. John Gebhart said the network jumped at the opportunity and has been showcasing its members’ work at 367 Ocean Boulevard ever since. HAN members are free to exhibit and sell their art at the gallery without any commission. HAN only asks for members to make a donation toward paying the gallery’s electric bill, as well as volunteer their time to staff the venue. Julie Martinelli, a board member at HAN, said they prefer a daily staff of two members to oversee the gallery, which is open from 2 to 8 p.m. Tuesday through Saturday and from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Sunday. She said the gallery features a wide variety of media and has a steady

flow of daily visitors. In addition to its gallery, Martinelli said, HAN partners with the Hampton Garden Club for an annual Art in Bloom event each June at the Partridge House. About 15 HAN members submit pieces for the show, which members of the Hampton Garden Club base floral arrangements on to supplement the original piece. Since 2010, HAN has grown its membership to include 75 area artists, some of whom hail from as far away as Manchester and northern Massachusetts. Members pay a $20 membership fee; for additional funding, HAN has held minigolf tournaments and sells calendars composed of its

members work. Calendars are available for purchase at HAN’s gallery for the remainder of the summer. After its first minigolf fundraiser in 2014, HAN saw an opportunity to use some of its funding to invest in art education for area students. It started this initiative by providing four middle schoolers with tuition-free classes at the CurJULIE MARTINELLI rier Art Center’s summer program in Manchester. That program has grown to cover 15 middle schoolers’ classes on-site at the network’s gallery. Area artists will volunteer their time to teach art skills across multiple media. “Our goal is to promote creativity, self-

esteem and communications through the arts,” Martinelli said. Looking ahead, HAN is preparing for the annual Hampton Art Walk in September, which pairs local artists and businesses to display art in shop windows and the town green. Martinelli said HAN is working with Hampton businesses to showcase members’ work and sell the network’s calendars during the Art Walk and beyond. “One of the great things about being in a small community is there’s a lot of interaction with local businesses,” Martinelli said. Though HAN has only been around for about five years, John Gebhart said the network is always growing and looking for ways to publicize its members’ art in the area, whether through local newspaper articles or simply operating its gallery. “We’ve been around long enough that people are aware of what we’re doing and know what we’re about,” he said. “We run into new artists all the time.”

I don’t really feel qualified to “review” the work of the late, great Jim Harrison, but that did not make reading his final work, The Ancient Minstrel, any less pleasurable. The legendary author, who died in March, was “unsurpassed at chronicling man’s relationship with wilderness,” as Tom Bissell of Outside Magazine wrote in a 2011 piece. The Ancient Minstrel is classic Harrison. If you like Harrison’s writing — he is probably best known for writing Legends of the Fall, which became a 1994 film starring Brad Pitt — you will love The Ancient Minstrel. This was a perfect way to go out as a writer whose prolific career includes more than three dozen books and nearly 20 collections of poetry. In this collection of novellas, a form Harrison relied on throughout his career, he first pokes a little fun at himself as he describes an aging writer’s funny and touching attempt at raising pigs in the collection’s title piece. In Eggs, the reader follows the story of Catherine, who has always been fascinated and comforted by chickens, and who embarks on a quest to put her own eggs to use. Finally, in The Case of the Howling Buddha, Harrison circles back to the beloved character of retired police detective Sunderson, the main character in previous novels The Big Seven and The Great Leader. Sunderson finds himself in a predictable, if not entirely avoidable, predicament. What has always struck me about Harrison’s writing is just how real and relatable I find his characters and the settings he creates. The people just feel real and it just feels like they are surrounded by real life, not a glimpse of someone else’s imagination. In The Ancient Minstrel, which is set in Montana, I couldn’t help but put myself in this old writer’s shoes, even as he is making a strange and probably ill-advised decision to begin raising pigs — which he does on a whim outside an eatery known for its hot roast beef sandwiches (he shows up at 10:30 a.m. to beat the rush). As his time spent writing (working) diminishes, his time with his pigs grows. While Shirley is “always scrappy and would gratuitously bother the others,” Marjorie becomes a companion, taking walks with him and making him consider whether she could perhaps serve as a stand-in bird dog. The Ancient Minstrel is a wonderful story of someone taking stock of his life, his accomplishments and the path forward. Maybe it is also about checking things off the bucket list. In Eggs, Catherine is a delightfully independent woman who, for the most
part, chooses chickens over the companionship of men. Catherine, who has loved chickens since she was a little girl, decides she wants to have a baby. She does not want a husband, just a baby, and as such, she begins a quest of sorts to make that happen. In the midst of her effort, during which Catherine finds few suitable partners, she finds herself in love with a crippled war veteran. It is not so much that I could easily put myself in Catherine’s shoes, but it is easy to understand and appreciate her self-awareness of what makes her happy and satisfied in life. Eggs is a calming story in that way. Former police detective Sunderson has not changed in The Case of the Howling Buddha. He is still drinking. He is still fishing. And he is unabashedly as interested in women, including very young women, as ever. As a private investigator, he is hired by a local big shot to investigate a cult his daughter and son have fallen in with — cult members howl like howler monkeys as a form of expression. But this story is not about Sunderson solving crime or exposing fraud or extricating this man’s children from a cult, though that effort provides plenty of entertainment. This is a story about Sunderson’s own weakness — specifically his issues with lust. “Sex is the most powerful bully in our lives,” Harrison writes in The Ancient Minstrel, but the message certainly carries over to the final novella. Sunderson is unable to say no, and that ultimately leaves him entirely boxed in. Harrison’s writing is at once matter-offact and profound. The writing is funny, at times hilarious, but it often feels like he is poking a little fun at all of us, most especially himself, reminding us of our own weaknesses, limitations and vanities.

On April 9, Deep Purple was finally inducted into the Rock & Hall of Fame. Among those on the crowded stage accepting the honor was Glenn Hughes, the band’s bass player and co-vocalist from 1973 to 1976. Internecine bickering hovered like a cloud over this year’s festivities, especially for Deep Purple. Guitarist and founding member Ritchie Blackmore refused to come, and not all members joined the traditional reunion performance — Hughes and former lead singer David Coverdale only watched. Remembering the night in a recent interview, however, Hughes was all about the upside. “It was amazing,” he said. “We were nominated four times and I had a feeling we would get in ... any band that sells upward of 100 million records qualifies, and I think it’s a shame that it took so long for them to do it. But I must say, it seems that the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame is this dark and gloomy place — others talk about this — but there is a lot of love in Cleveland, and a lot of respect.” Following Purple, Hughes made his mark working with other musicians, first with Pat Travers Band guitarist Pat Thrall, then in the short-lived Boys Club with late keyboard player Keith Emerson. Hughes also teamed with Tony Iommi of Black Sabbath, Gary Moore, members of Red Hot Chili Peppers and Disturbed front man Dave Draiman’s band Device. He played in supergroups California Breed, Kings of Chaos and Black Country Communion, the latter still an ongoing project due to hit the studio in the fall. All this activity left little room for solo work, and it’s been eight years since Hughes released an album of his own. That’s about to change, and the man that many call “The Voice of Rock” couldn’t contain his excitement. Though he usually doesn’t listen to his work outside of the studio, Hughes made an exception this time. “I got halfway through it and thought, ‘Wait a minute, this is actually pretty f-ing

good here!’ It’s probably the most aggressive, heaviest record I have ever made — and the soulful-est.” The imminent release coincides with what is surprisingly Hughes’s first-ever solo tour of the U.S. “I know it’s shocking. ... I’m 64, and I’ve been in these huge bands,” he said, adding that he’s successful in foreign markets. After years of drug and alcohol abuse, Hughes went into rehab in 1991. “I had a No. 1 song in Europe when I got out ... ever since, I’ve been plying my trade overseas,” he said. All the upcoming shows are at intimate clubs and include material ranging across Hughes’s long career. “When I was a young man I came over here and built up to arena level; all these years later, to go back into clubs is very exciting,” he said. “I’ve got a great band, a great crew and we’re ready to rock and we’re going to be playing music all the way from 1970 to now — Trapeze, solo stuff
and other things. It’s going to be a night for my fans.” Since he’s among rock’s most prolific collaborators, Hughes was asked to name a project he’d like to do, or something he’d nearly done that didn’t quite happen. “There is one major one,” he said. “I got a call from Jeff Beck’s manager in 1994. … At the time he was managing one of my best friend’s bands. Well, actually the president of CBS Records called me up to say Jeff’s manager was going to call me. I met Jeff in London in ‘71, and Jeff was going to do an album where he wanted a singer.” Beck and his cohorts came to a London club where Hughes was playing to check out his act. “I thought, ‘OK, I’m finally going to get to work with Jeff, my old friend. If you asked any singer, they would want to play with Jeff Beck. It didn’t happen, though. I know Jeff and it’s a matter of timing,” Hughes said, adding with a smile, “I think he chooses more to work with girls these days.”

Success seems to be catching up with Hannibal Buress’s appetite for it. The Chicago born comic’s first big break came when a solid set on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon got him a job as a Saturday Night Live staff writer. He lasted one season — Tina Fey lured him to 30 Rock in 2010 — and little of his work made it on the air. That didn’t stop him from living large, however. “I got one sketch on of my own the whole time I was there, but I partied like it was three a week,” Buress said in a recent phone interview. A creative high point came when he helped out with a Lonely Island “Shy Ronny” segment. “I thought of this line, ‘C’mon Ronny, this beat cost a lot of money,’ and it made it in. Rihanna sung some words that I wrote; that was kind of cool.” Now, he’s done three comedy specials; the latest, Hannibal Buress: Comedy Camisado, premiered on Netflix earlier this year. Comics he’s long admired, like Chris Rock and Louis C.K., call him the future of comedy. His acting career is taking off, too. He plays nerdy dentist Lincoln Rice on Broad City and did voice work in the recently released animated feature The Secret Life of Pets. Buress also has small roles in the next Spiderman movie, a Baywatch reboot and The Comedian, a forthcoming film starring Robert De Niro. Buress has graduated from the comedy club circuit to venues like Casino Ballroom in Hampton Beach, where he appears Aug. 13. He didn’t even set out to be a comic, first hitting open mikes while attending Southern Illinois University. He eventually dropped out to pursue standup full time, but claims he’d felt the urge to perform long before then. “I think I had the bug and that showed itself in different ways,” he said. “I do remember as a young kid one time being in a store with my dad and him saying something to me and then me saying Hannibal Buress

something smart back and looking over to another lady that was in line to see her reaction and I remember him [saying], ‘What the hell you looking over there for?’” Making it for Buress is more about security than fame. In his act, he points out that he’s doesn’t yet have ‘f-you money ... it’s more like angry-worded email money,” but he’s grateful anyway. “To help my family out in a way I wasn’t able to before ... make smart financial decisions, set up something long term, that’s the best thing now,” he said. “The shows are fun — I enjoy and love doing comedy and acting; but just be thankful.” Buress’s material is universal: speeding tickets, the comedy game, weird girls at 5 in the morning — anything that pops into his head or his life can be fodder. He recently flew from Spain to Miami, and landed feeling ill with only a few hours to prepare for the next show. “I don’t know if it was food poisoning or the flight,” he said, “but I was a shambles, man.” So he worked his discomfort into that night’s set. “I was joking about how my after-theshow game with girls would be different, like, ‘Do you want to come to my hotel room ... and nurse me back to health? Wake me up every hour so I don’t crap in my sleep? I was upset mostly because I love going out in Miami,” he said. “Some people can just go to bed and be fine, but
I really wanted to be out there, getting into some nonsense.” Not much political material makes it in. “If I want to get serious, I need the bit to work within the context of the set,” he said. Thus, Buress won’t confront an audience with current events, but he has a brilliant ability to keep them just close by. A good example is a Comedy Camisado bit about his reluctance to take a selfie with a Missouri policeman who “fanned out” on him at an airport. “If a cop don’t get what he wants, things can go left really fast,” Buress says with a wry smile. Buress’s role models are comics like Dave Chappelle — “great sketch actor; top notch, insightful standup” — and late Boston comedian Patrice O’Neal. “Rest his soul. I had the chance to see him live several times, and he got some of the biggest laughs I’ve ever seen in a comedy club. ... Just big, raw, honest laughs.” He also brings experience as a Chicago high school champion debater to the stage. “A lot of my jokes are logic based ... saying why somebody is wrong and why I am right, and I definitely think that it forms an aspect of my comedy, which is breaking down why something is ridiculous,” Buress said, adding, “being able to handle cross examination with humor ... helps me deal with hecklers in my stand up show.”

BEACH BUM FUN HOROSCOPES By Holly, The Seacoast Area's Leading Astrologer
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): Make positive changes at home. You can start by moving out. Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): It’s wise to keep your true feelings out of conversations, you cheating liar. Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Try to approach problems logically. In other words, time for a totally new experience. Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Love is in the stars, as it sure isn’t anywhere near you.
Aries (March 21-April 19): Remember, success is the sweetest revenge. But beating up someone is much faster. Taurus (April 20-May 20): Implement what you want with complete certainty. At least I think you should. Gemini (May 21-June 20): Finish what you start, or you will face criticism for not being Cancer (June 21-July 22): Facing a crisis, you will control your emotions. Your bowels are another story.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Try new social activities to increase chances of romance, such as visiting the zoo. Wait, let me rephrase that. Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Keeping secrets is a wise move, so I’m not telling you your horoscope. Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Loosen up and let your mind wander. OK, that’s enough.
Beer, Wine, Lottery Tickets & Tobacco
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): You will find your car keys, but you will lose your sense of purpose in life. Still, you’re ahead.

NEWS OF THE WEIRD BY CHUCK SHEPHERD government $10.4 million in attorneys’ fees for successful lawsuits filed against him by illegally profiled Hispanics. A judge found months ago (awarding $4.5 million) that Arpaio was deliberately violating the court’s orders, and lawyers have demanded another $5.9 million to bring Arpaio’s resistances up to date. (Unless the court rules otherwise, the $5.9 million will ultimately come from taxpayers.)
Latest religious messages
A Fargo, North Dakota, fire official said in July his crew had responded at least twice to alarmed-citizen phone calls to go help a man obviously homeless, covered in a blanket on a park bench, who seemed not to be moving. The First Lutheran Church later explained that the “man” was just a statue of their idea of Jesus as a homeless man and its Canadian designer said versions of the statue had been placed in several cities, including Toronto and Detroit.

had spent the equivalent of $5.5 billion unwinding Kerviel’s trades, they still made money (because, before the world economy collapsed in 2008, the derivatives business was very good). • Ronnie Music Jr., 45, won a scratchoff lottery prize last year of $3 million in Waycross, Georgia, and must surely have thought he was on a roll because he soon flipped the money into a Georgia methamphetamine gang. The “bet” went sour, and he now faces decades in prison, as he pleaded guilty in July to drug trafficking and firearms violations after his associates were found with $1 million worth of meth and a load of guns.
As Americans’ fascination with guns grows, so, too, does the market for protection against all those flying bullets. Texan John Adrain has introduced an upscale sofa whose cushions can stop up to a .44 Magnum fired at close range, and is now at work on bullet-resistant window blinds. Another company, BulletSafe, recently touted its $129 baseball caps (with protection against the same bullets, but only in front) though the company admits the cap won’t prevent concussions. The Colombian suit and vest designer Miguel Caballero offers an array of bullet- and knife-resistant selections, made with Kevlar and Dyneema, which are also used by clothiers BladeRunner and Aspetto (maker of “ballistic tuxedos”).

Almost half of all produce raised by U.S. farmers is thrown out before it reaches a consumer’s plate, and though there are several contributing explanations, the most striking is American eaters’ “cult of perfection.” “It’s about blemish-free produce,” said one farmer, e.g., “sunburnt cauliflower” or table grapes not quite “wedge-shaped” enough. America’s “unyielding cosmetic standards,” according to a July report in The Guardian of London, even means that much of the annual $160 billion worth of imperfect food is simply left to rot on the vine, or sent directly to
a landfill, because farmers anticipate retailers’ reluctance to stock it.
Wait, what?
In July, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service announced plans to keep black-footed ferrets in northeastern Montana from dying out with drones that shoot peanut butter M&Ms (coated with a vaccine). Before the drones, there were too few ferrets to justify, economically, hand-delivering the candy.
Compelling explanations
• Anyone’s Fault but Mine: Lawyer Andrew Schmuhl, 32, ordered to trial in Fairfax County, Virginia, in May, declared that he was not responsible in 2014 when he invaded the home of a man who had recently fired Schmuhl’s wife. Using a Taser, he had held the man and his wife hostage for three hours and ultimately slashed the man’s throat and stabbed the woman repeatedly. However, Schmuhl claimed he should be found not guilty because he was “involuntarily” intoxicated at the time, cluelessly on pain medication that made him oblivious of his actions. (He was convicted.) • The membership of the Westerly (Rhode Island) Yacht Club voted in June to retain the club’s men-only admission policy, which some members told a Providence Journal reporter was necessary to preserve the club’s “family atmosphere.” Apparently, according to the report, they feared being tempted at social events by having unmarried women around (as “full” female members, instead of the currently allowed “spousal” members).
