A little history about The Fourth of July: It has been a federal holiday in the United States since 1941, but the tradition of Independence Day celebrations goes back to the 18th century Larry Marsolais and the American Revolution. On July 2, 1776, the Continental Congress voted in favor of independence, and two days later delegates from the 13 colonies adopted the Declaration of Independence, a historic document drafted by Thomas Jefferson. Three U.S. presidents actually died on July 4: John Adams and Thomas Jefferson both died on July 4, 1826 four hours apart, and James Monroe, who died July 4, 1831. From 1776 to the present day, July 4 has been celebrated as

the birth of American independence, with festivities ranging from fireworks, parades and concerts to more casual family gatherings and barbecues. Enjoy the festivities wherever you are and take your time so you get to your designation safely. Visitors and locals, there is a ton of stuff to do on the Seacoast, and if you are reading this, then you have the best guide to help you along the way! Summer is here — let’s all enjoy it. Happy Fourth of July! As always, I would love to hear from our readers. Feel free to call me any time 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.

What do dogs, goats, pigs, macaws and lizards have in common? They’ve all taken part in the Salisbury Beach Pet Parade, a decadeold event that attracts all kinds of animals and their owners, plus plenty of spectators. The 11th annual Pet Parade will take place on Monday, July 3, at 6 p.m. at the Salisbury Beach Center. Event organizer Kathleen Graham said owners do not have to register before the event. Several trophies are awarded to participating pets, and winners are determined by crowd participation and clapping. Recognition is awarded in the categories of best in show, for the best-looking pet overall, best dressed, best look-alike and best pound puppy. All category winners go home with a trophy. These distinctions are ardently sought after by many pet owners, and participation in the parade often entails days of preparation. Several owners take the Look Alike contest to the next level, striving to resemble their pet, whether it is through costume or hair design or something else. “There’s a lot of preparation involved if the owner is making costumes,” Graham said. “They really spend a lot of time, and sometimes money, on their costumes.” In addition to recognizing good-looking pets, this event highlights the importance of adoption with the Best Pound Puppy category. “We certainly really appreciate what people do when it comes to rescuing animals,” Graham said. The parade itself consists of three trips around the Broadway loop in Salisbury. The course is designed to be long enough so that the pets can enjoy the activity but short enough that there is no danger of overheating. The organizers also ensure pet safety by providing water bowls throughout the course and take into consideration the effect of heat on the pets. Music will be played by a DJ throughout

the parade to get the crowd going, and the playlist is not complete without “Who Let the Dogs Out.” “It’s great to watch, great to participate in,” Graham said. The event serves to bring together pet owners and pet lovers alike for a joyful gath-

ering in a community space. Graham noted that there are always returning pets and owners, in particular one Yorkie named Mazie who has participated in the parade every single year and is a beach favorite. “I think that [the owners] just enjoy the fact that we understand how much they love their pets. … They take the time to do this to really show them off in their best costumes or best grooming. Everyone’s smiling, enjoying, it’s really a perfect event,” Graham said. The Pet Parade was originally sponsored by Park Place Real Estate, but the Salisbury Beach Partnership has sponsored this summer event for the past couple of years. The parade is completely free of charge for both participants and viewers, and the pets will receive free goodie bags. According to Graham, this event helps to bring together Salisbury community members of all ages. “Every event that the Salisbury Beach Partnership sponsors stresses the importance of the community, whether you live on the beach or you visit the beach,” Graham said. — Rebecca Walker

Summer is officially here, which in New Hampshire probably entails camping for many people. Not all campgrounds are the same, however, and not all camping experiences are the same. Here is the lowdown on some campgrounds in and around the Seacoast and the kinds of camping they offer, as well as some tips and ideas on how to maximize your outdoorsy vacation.

How do you want to camp?

“Roughing it” is not for everyone, but there may be no better place than the Seacoast to try tent camping. Regardless of where you pitch your tent, you are only a few minutes away from the ocean and the great dining and shopping options all along the coast. Just because you are close to civilization, however, doesn’t mean you can’t lose yourself in nature along the Seacoast, as there are several campgrounds that feature great spots for tenting. For Laura Ferrigno of Wakeda Campground in Hampton Falls, the magic of their campground begins with the land itself, which she said provides a rustic sort of feel. She said her family has owned the campground for three generations, which helps to create a family-like atmosphere. “My grandparents started this place in 1965,” she said. “It’s not unusual to have third- and fourth-generation campers who continue to come back. My grandparents are 96 and 92, so they can still see the campground thrive. It’s a great atmosphere.” A mile off the road and surrounded by woods, Wakeda Campground features more than 60 sites for tenting with some that offer no water or electricity and others that offer both. “You get a picnic table and fireplace with these sites, too,” said Ferrigno. At The Green Gate Campground in Exeter, there are roughly two dozen tenting sites, each with water and electricity. As with Wakeda, individual sites include a firepit and a picnic table. “The sites here are beautiful,” said Jan

Liu, owner of The Green Gate. “They are surrounded by mature trees and are very shady.” Christine Infantine is the owner of Ferndale Acres Campground in Lee, which features about 10 tenting sites. She has several suggestions for tent campers. “You want two tarps with one to put down on the ground for moisture under the tent and a second one for the top in case it rains — moisture collects easily in tents,” she said. “You should also bring a little outdoor rug to put shoes on, which will keep the tent clean.” Infantine suggests bringing a power strip and an extension cord if your tent site has electricity. “You may also want to bring some outdoor lights — Christmas icicle lights are a great idea — which help brighten your site up at night,” she said. “You can string them from the trees.” Whereas tenting is fairly rustic, RVs provide a level of comfort and sophistica-

tion to the camping experience. One thing to keep in mind with RVs, though, is that every campground has different rules and regulations. Noting they have well over 30 RV sites at Wakeda, Ferrigno said many campground sites have length restrictions. “Be aware of the size of the rig — every inch matters,” she said. “Make sure you know how much electricity your rig requires, too, especially when it comes to air conditioning.” At Ferndale Acres, which features several dozen RV sites, Infantine has a money-saving tip. “For those staying long-term, we always suggest turning your RV fridge from electric to propane, too,” she added. “It costs a lot less.” It also does not hurt to have a checklist of things to make sure you do upon arrival at the site. Some basic suggestions from campground owners include looking for low-hanging branches or items on the ground that could get in the way of your RV’s wheels; parking your rig close to the hookups and leveling it with blocks or stabilizing jacks; switching your appliances to the campground’s power supply; and attaching your sewer hose to the drain hook-up.

and you don’t want to deal with the work that comes from owning or even renting an RV, another option is renting a cabin. They can make camping much more manageable for new campers or those with younger children. Some feature kitchens and running water and some do not, so be sure to call and ask what amenities are included with each cabin. The variables are significant and mean the difference between “barely more than a tent” cabins and more luxurious cabins. The cabins at Wakeda Campground in Hampton Falls, for example, include twin bunk beds and a full-size bed, lights and electricity, a screened porch, and a picnic table, fireplace and water spigot on site. Over at Exeter Elms Campground, a Full Cabin includes a full bed, twin bunks, sofa bed, loft, kitchen and bathroom. Kitchen includes fridge, stove, oven, microwave, toaster, coffeemaker, dishes, pots and silverware. But a Riverfront Rustic Cabin does not have a kitchen or a bathroom. It all depends on how rustic you want your camping experience to be.

Packing for your trip

For Rob Garneau, owner of Travel & Nature in Exeter, a successful camping trip begins months before the camping even starts. “In my basement, I set up storage bins that hold everything I need,” he said. In one bin, which he labels “Accessories,” he stores things like a camera, batteries, adaptor cords, a Swiss army knife and a headlamp. “Headlamps are so superior to flashlights, because they provide hands-free lighting,” he said. “You can move branches when walking; it’s very handy.” Kids like wearing headlamps, too. Other “accessories” include a toiletry kit, sunglasses, toothbrush, toothpaste and a few medical items, like ibuprofen, Tums and a first-aid kit. In another bin, labeled “Kitchen,” Garneau stores a lightweight, rubberized collapsible pail, dishes and utensils. Citing

Haven’t been camping before or need a refresher? Garneau offered some suggestions on how to maximize the camping experience for families. A lot of it, he said, depends on your kids’ age. “That makes a huge difference,” he said. For those 10 years of age and older, he said you can consider the opportunities that may exist nearby when planning your trip. “You can go hiking and engage in other activities that could take up an entire day,” he said. “If they are younger, it is important to emphasize the fun aspect of camping and plan accordingly.” For Garneau, planning accordingly begins with the idea that a camping site is akin to a base camp, especially for first-time or fairly new campers. “I remember camping as a kid in a family tent — you don’t have to jump right into the backpacking thing,” he said. “I loved it. Everyone has their sleeping bags out. You bring games. You bring headlamps and make shadows on the wall. It was a lot of fun.” For Ferndale Acres Campground co-owner Cheryl Dupuis, half the fun of camping in any form is to simply reconnect with family. “Being able to enjoy each other as a family away from the world of technology is important,” she said. “Technology is always available, but most campers would rather spend time away from it. That’s what makes camping so great; it is the personal connections.” If all else fails, you can always make some s’mores, says Joy Ballentine of Twin Brooks Campground in Seabrook. In fact, make anything. “Cook a hot dog and have a beer — it’s camping,” she said. “Have a campfire and invite everyone even if you haven’t met them. … If you’re not having fun, you’re doing it wrong.”

their long shelf-life, he said he occasionally will store freeze-dried food in this bin as well. In his last bin, “Clothing,” he keeps season-appropriate clothing. “I have non-cotton pants, a wicking shirt and socks,” he said. “I don’t have to go through my closets and drawers. I’m ready to go in 10 minutes.” Perhaps one of the most essential but easy-to-forget items is bug spray. “It’s something you need here and ... especially places in the woods,” Liu said.

Gearing up

As far as camping gear goes, Garneau said modern campers possess distinct advantages over those who went camping in the past. “We are lucky these days,” he said. “We have such a range in terms of price and quality. If it is your first time camping and you don’t want the best of the best, you don’t have to spend an arm and a leg for that first time.” Sleeping bags, for instance, should not necessarily comprise a big part of your budget, especially for kids. “Kids grow so fast,” he said. “We carry inexpensive sleeping bags. It’s silly if you spend too much.” Of course, if you do spend more on any kind of camping gear, you can expect better quality. He cited The North Face and Harman as two brands that put out products constructed with “real quality.” “You pay for it, but the products are much lighter and withstand the rain much better,” he said. “If you plan on camping more, they can be a good investment.”

Campfire cooking

Whether you go RVing, go tenting, or set up camp in a cabin, the odds are that you will end up cooking outside over a grill or firepit at some point. Ferrigno said 18

Rob Garneau, owner of Travel & Nature, shows off some of his camping supplies. Courtesy photos. 12 the key is to keep it simple.

“Hot dogs and kabobs are great things to cook over the grill and they are really easy,” she said. According to Infantine, what to cook is largely determined by your method of camping. “If you have a trailer, you can bring more items with you — you can definitely bring things to grill and barbecue,” she said. “For tents, there isn’t too much room except in a cooler, so you need to be mind-

ful of that.” For those who like to add a little bit of flavor to their food, Garneau said he brings a basic spice kit, which is composed of salt, pepper, garlic powder and seasoning salt. He said he also uses fresh vegetables and adds them to many of his dishes. Some of his favorite vegetables include carrots, broccoli and onions. Instant mashed potatoes are another favorite, as is fish in a pouch and burritos.

Do we need to say anything else?

“I love to make burrito wraps,” he said. “Add some dried beans, instant rice, and cheese to shave on there with my Swiss army knife. Everything tastes a little bit better when you’re out in the fresh air.” For breakfast, Garneau said dried milk with granola is a staple along with oatmeal and Cream of Wheat, which he flavors with raisins or dried fruit. “The nice thing with oats is that they do not have to be cooked,” he said. “You can eat it cold and add a little bit of water.”

THE PERFECT

RAINY DAY

He cited Seacoast-based company Good To-Go as another option for those who want to maintain a level of sophistication with their camping meals. “They are based right out of Kittery and they dehydrate their foods and package them right there,” he said. “Their food is somewhere in between freezedried food and grocery store shopping — it’s instant convenience. They use really good ingredients and the food is really delicious.”

PEOPLE AND PLACES GET TO KNOW

RIANNA FRADY RETREAT 339 IN HAMPTON BEACH Your website talks about yoga and mindfulness. How do the two relate for you? Yoga and mindfulness are holistic healing modalities and when infused together, they can improve practitioners’ minds, bodies and spirits. Being a longtime student and teacher, I view yoga and mindfulness as tools that can help people become more conscious, compassionate and Rianna Frady. Courtesy photo. relaxed. How does it work? The practice of yoga includes asanas — body movements — and breath work. Yoga encourages energy to flow throughout the body, which is great for preventing and healing disease. In the literal sense, the word “yoga” means “to join” or “to yoke” the mind, body and spirit. Mindfulness is a practice that focuses more on the mental and emotional aspects of one’s being. With mindfulness, practitioners are encouraged to notice the quality of their minds. They observe how their thoughts and feelings impact themselves, which impacts the relationships we have with ourselves, others and in the world. What are the benefits you have seen in your clients? Stress reduction, increased flexibility of the body and mind, weight loss, increased physical strength, consciousness, and increased compassion for self and others. These are just some of the things I’ve noticed. I’ve also seen improved blood pressure, improved posture and reduced pain in my clients. There are so many other benefits, too. What do you love the most about your work and your life? What I love the most about my work is the freedom I feel. I love being my own boss. I am very independent and businesssavvy and I need to be creative and pave my own way in life. I never want to live with regrets, so opening the studio was proof to myself that I won’t. I love that I am able to help others feel better and I enjoy personally connecting with people. I am also really into learning and growing and I like sharing and inspiring others. I love being inspired too.

With your location right on the beach, do you work with many tourists? When I decided to invest in our location, I did some market research, and from what I recall, there are something like 12 million people that pass through Hampton in the summer. So far, we are getting a lot of local interest. 2017 will also be the first summer we are open, though, so we will see how many tourists are up for yoga and or mindfulness classes.

What inspired you to open your studio? It was traveling to Hampton every summer from Boston with my family for our annual family vacation that inspired me to open a studio on the beach — there was nowhere for me to practice when I was away. I saw a need and I think others see it, too. I suspect I will be very busy. Do you draw inspiration from the ocean? I love the ocean; I think it’s so relaxing. I am a fire sign, so for me I feel like the ocean grounds me and helps to balance my flames. I also love nature in general and I find that being in and around nature is very meditative for me. What is your favorite part about being so close to the beach? The view from the front desk at the studio, beach vibes, sand in my toes when I want and lunch breaks laying out, or going on the water slides. I also like to be around happy people, and when people are at the beach they seem to be in a happy place, generally speaking. Ten years from now, where do you see yourself? Retired from my banking job during the day, which is going on year 15, running and growing the studio and spending more time with family and tending to my personal life. I also imagine I will have traveled a lot and will continue that. In my ideal world, I will also have my Ph.D., which I plan to start in the fall of 2018. I am currently wrapping up my master’s work. For my thesis, I am writing a book about the effects of mindfulness on narcissism, so stay tuned for that. — Rob Levey

Whether your goal is to reduce your 5K time, become stronger through weight training or simply improve your overall physical conditioning, Specific Adaption to Imposed Demands (SAID) training may be the answer. A simple way to understand SAID training is to consider your goals in relation to the specific muscles you will need to train to reach them. If you want to run a marathon (26.2 miles), for example, you need to commit to training that puts demands on your aerobic system (cardiovascular muscles like your heart). You also need to work your slowtwitch muscles, which are primarily used for long-distance running. With SAID, you can target the heart and slow-twitch muscles, which will bring positive adaptations and allow for easier running of longer distances. Certified Coach Mike Davis at No Finish Line Running employs this kind of training for his clients. He said it has met with great success. “I start out with an initial consultation with a prospective client and we talk about goals,” he said. These kinds of conversations help Davis determine whether a runner has two or more goals that actually countermand one another. While an inexperienced runner may improve their 5k time just through structured and increased running, it would be unwise to train this individual to also set a PR for a marathon. “You should never target two goals that require specific adaptations of two different systems,” he said. “Improving a 5K time requires a lot of training in running uncomfortable shorter runs. In training for a marathon, you need a lot of time developing aerobic capacity. … Specificity of training will help people achieve their most desired goals.” Another area where SAID is helpful is when we want to figure out what type of strength training is needed to complement a runner’s goals. “Going to a gym and trying to arbitrarily get stronger is not the most helpful way to improve running or possibly even improve an individual’s overall functionality,” he said. “Runners need specific adaption to their body to improve their running efficiency and also prevent injuries.” With that in mind, he said, adding bulk in your arms is not going to help a longdistance runner, as the additional muscle

may prevent fluid arm swing. The gluteus maximus may not be a glamorous muscle; however, if the goal is to improve your running, he said, it is necessary to develop it specific to your goals. “Running, biking, or playing any particular sport — all require SAID training when it comes to hitting the weights to help improve in those activities,” he said. “Often we are spending more time pushing and pulling heavier weights and not enough time using weights to help improve range of motion.” Davis cited Wolff’s Law, which was developed by the German anatomist and surgeon Julius Wolff in the 19th century, as one of the longstanding principles upon which SAID training rests. “Bone in a healthy person or animal will adapt to the loads under which it is placed,” he explained. What this means is that when we apply stress (load), our bones will adapt, stay strong and even grow. “A healthy skeletal structure will regenerate two-plus complete skeletal structures in a lifetime,” he said. “This process is enhanced by the loads placed on the bones.” As we age, our activities play a critical role in maintaining the size and density of our bones. Using SAID training, we can ensure continued adaptations to our skeletal system. “It results in a higher quality of life, too,” said Davis. “The human body is designed to be maintained in a way that requires stress and demands on it. If you impose these demands in a specific, safe and constructive way, you can make improvements in your chosen sport and enhance your overall life.” — Rob Levey

It’s summertime and the living is easy — except not necessarily. In fact, it’s quite normal to find yourself feeling more stressed than usual this time of year. The kids are out of school, planning for vacation can be mentally (not to mention financially) draining, and time off from work can trigger angst and frustration if you’re unable to unplug from the office or have to work harder before or after your vacation to make up for that time off. If you’re looking for a little more balance in your life, you might find yoga and meditation to be beneficial. Whether you are an experienced yogi or a beginner, these local yoga studios could help lead the way to a fun and stress-free summer.

Stand-up paddleboard (SUP) yoga continues to challenge water sport enthusiasts all over the nation. Fitness and yoga instructor Karen Fraser first learned of the frenzy when visiting her son in California. Enticed by its challenging yet calming nature, Fraser was inspired to launch the first SUP Yoga program in the Boston area. Today, the SUP Yoga and SUP Fitness certified instructor partners with Cinnamon Rainbows Surf Shop, offering classes to all levels of yogis. “The benefits of practicing yoga on water include, but are not limited to, increased use of core strength and stabilization muscles, the cooling effect of the water and ocean air, amazing scenery and a calming connection to nature,” Fraser said. “It’s almost beyond words.” SUP Paddleboard Yoga rate

Rye Beach Yoga is family-owned studio with local roots. Leigh Ann Steele, her husband, Robin Wehbe, and her mother-in-law, Seta Wehbe, opened the studio in June 2016, hoping to provide Rye residents with a serene and welcoming space to practice yoga and meditation. The stu-

dio’s proximity to Cable Beach makes it easy for students to relax and unwind, Steele said. Rye Beach Yoga offers a variety of classes, including vinyasa-based flow yoga, slow flow, flow + yin, restorative yoga, yoga for runners and surfers, yoga basics and meditation. All classes are taught by certified yoga instructors with at least 200 hours of training. “We’ve all been practicing yoga for years and my husband, Robin, often voiced how great it would be to have a place to do yoga near the beach in Rye,” Steele said. “To us, the studio is like a flower growing next to the beach, a welcoming addition to the community.” Rye Beach Yoga rates

Kids get stressed too. And what’s more, many kids do not know how to properly cope with social anxiety or school-related stress. This is why Lisa Flynn decided to open ChildLight Yoga in 2005. ChildLight and its affiliate Yoga 4 Classrooms aim to promote resilience, positive perceptions and good health habits in children. “Through yoga and mindfulness practices, children are empowered with self-awareness and self-management skills, which in turn support other social and emotional learning competencies,” Flynn said. Flynn said her book, Yoga for Children, is a good resource for learning about the numerous benefits of yoga and mindfulness. Childlight currently offers prenatal yoga, parent and child classes, kids-only classes and teen-yoga network classes. The studio also offers mobile enrichment and two summer camps: GirlPowerment Camp and the Yoga & Mindfulness Adventure Camp. To register for 2017 fall session classes, visit childlightyoga.com.

The farm will be offering goat yoga throughout the summer for all levels, but don’t be deceived by these adorable companions — classes are still challenging and work to stretch, strengthen and relax the mind and body. “The goats’ behavior during class is very unpredictable,” Jenness Farm owner Peter Corriveau said. “Sometimes they are bouncing off the walls, while other times they are very mellow and likely to lay down next to someone and fall asleep.” Classes are held upstairs in the barn and are limited to 16 people.

What it is: The workouts are led by personal trainer Samantha Lyford, owner of Get Fit with Sam in Hampton. For the past year, Lyford has been holding early morning classes at Hampton Beach as a way to challenge her members to start their day with a high-intensity workout using natural elements in the great outdoors. The club costs $120 for a card that gets you 12 workouts. (You can find Get Fit With Sam on Facebook or email her at samantha.s.bean@gmail.com for details.)

ately felt the burn in my thighs and shoulders. Meanwhile, the other partners were hopping and lifting weights around while Sam played music from her boom box. The teams spent six minutes at each station until Sam gave the call and we could break for water. The rest of the stations were tough too and one included shoulder presses with various-sized weights. The challenge was to keep moving until the other partner completed the set number of reps. I try to work out on my own with weights but Get Fit with Sam definitely tested my endurance. It is not about how much weight you can lift but about how long you can push yourself. I found that some of the workouts were easier than others but at every station I had to push myself to the point of failure, meaning I got my butt kicked. What is great about the location is that you are not stuck in a gym. There is something that makes you feel cool while you are out on the beach, like you are training be a warrior. After the workout, everyone walked down to the water and we all got our feet wet. The water was cold, like it always is this time of year, but this time it was also refreshing.

My experience: I joined the group early Sunday morning while the beach was mostly empty. There were about eight participants and we were all paired off. My partner’s name was Jon. We gathered in front of Sam and awaited our challenge for the morning. Before the workout began, we did a warm-up jog from where we were standing on the beach to a collection of rocks down shore. I opted for no shoes so I could feel the sand beneath my feet. I figured if I was going to be working out on the beach I might as well go all out. We missed the sunrise but were still early enough to have the beach to ourselves for a while. The high walls at the North Hampton State Park block out the street and the shops along the beach, so all you see is sand and ocean. Sam had designed four stations where partners would switch between two workouts. So while one partner was doing Who might like it: Anyone looking for a burpees, for example, the other would be new challenge, an outdoor workout experidoing squats. For each station, one exercise ence or an invigorating way to start the day. had a set number of reps to complete while the other exercise lasted until the other partWant to see your photo in the Scene? ner finished.

CAR TALK

Reader should try less expensive fix first Dear Car Talk: I have a 2004 Silverado 4WD Z71 that I bought new, and over the years, the brakes have gotten terrible. I’ve been through the typical brake failures from rustBy Ray Magliozzi ed lines over the past six years and survived them all. So far. I love the truck; it still drives and handles well. The problem is that the brakes have no braking power. I have replaced all four rotors, the rear calipers, the brake booster, as well as the master cylinder, and, of course, all pads have been replaced at different times as they wore out. This truck will not lock up the brakes from any speed (barely on gravel). The only thing that has not been replaced are the front calipers. Could they have lost power over the years, even though they never stick? I wouldn’t mind spending $400 to $500 more to get “like new brakes,” but I hate to spend it if there’s no guarantee of success. Any ideas? — Greg Actually, disc brakes aren’t supposed to lock up. But we’re going to accept that the brakes are not as good as they used to be. So my first idea is to make sure there’s no air in the brake system.

You say you replaced the rear calipers. A lot of people don’t know that after replacing the rear calipers, the brakes at all four wheels need to be bled. If there’s some air trapped in the system, that would certainly diminish your braking power. So bleed all four calipers, if you really know what you’re doing. Or pay someone to do it for you if you’re not sure. We use something called a power bleeder at the shop, which pressurizes the master cylinder. That makes the job pretty much foolproof, as long as you can count to four — which five out of seven of our guys can do. While you’re bleeding the calipers, my second idea is to take a look at the wear on the pads, particularly at the front. If the front caliper slides are not working correctly, you’ll often see more wear on the inner pad than on the outer pad. Those slides are supposed to pull the two pads together around each rotor. But if only one pad is doing all the work, the truck will take longer to stop. And since the front wheels do most of the stopping, bad caliper slides could make a big difference. But I wouldn’t go spending hundreds of dollars to change the front calipers without evidence that they’re faulty. Check the pad wear first, and see if the evidence is there. Finally, even though you replaced the power brake booster, it’s possible that the booster

isn’t getting enough vacuum. There’s a hose that runs from the engine manifold to the booster that could be collapsed or something. You can go to the auto parts store, take that hose off in the parking lot, ask them to sell you a replacement, and then put the new one back before you drive home. It’s cheap and easy. And you’ll know right away if it makes any difference. Dear Car Talk: We have a 2010 Volkswagen Jetta. The air conditioner takes at least 15 minutes to get to a cool temperature. Until then it blows plain old hot air. Once it does get cool, it will stay cool for a good length of time. But then it will get less cool for a while and then go back to cool again. Also, it seems that it starts to cool once the engine temperature reaches 190 degrees. We have been to the VW dealer, and they have not been able to fix the issue. They have now said, at this point, we need a whole new air conditioning unit. We hate to spend $1,500 for a new unit when there could be another solution to this problem. My husband and I are so confused. Is there another solution? — Cynthia There’s always another solution, Cynthia. There’s rolling down the windows, or putting a five pound bag of ice on your lap.

It sounds like you may very well need a compressor, Cynthia. That’s the $1,500 solution. I assume they’ve verified that the refrigerant level is fine, or even recharged it for you. But there’s a small chance you just need something called a high pressure switch. If the pressure of the refrigerant inside the compressor is too high, the high pressure switch will cut power to the compressor clutch, so the compressor doesn’t blow itself up. And while the compressor clutch is deactivated, you’ll get hot air. So maybe that switch has gone haywire? Normally, a scan will pick that up. But if the switch wasn’t misbehaving when your dealer had the car, he could have missed it. And the dealer may not have wanted to put in the time to investigate further. He’s too busy trying to figure out where to park all those VW diesels he’s been buying back. So I suggest you take the car to an air conditioning specialty shop. Let them diagnose it, and ask them to check the high pressure switch, too. The switch is cheap. But even if they confirm that you need a compressor, get an estimate from them. Who knows? Their price might be cheaper than the dealer’s. Good luck. Visit Cartalk.com

FOOD

AT THE ICE HOUSE Located in Rye, The Ice House (112 Wentworth Road, 603-431-3086) has been in the Malinowski family for decades. Owned by Keith and Kathy Malinowski, the business is being gradually passed down to their daughter Meg Bishop and her husband Drew. From mid-April till Columbus Day, The Ice House serves 42 flavors of ice cream, seafood and all the other fried American classics you would expect by the Seacoast. With license plates from all 50 states on the walls, the atmosphere is comfortable and casual. Meg Bishop talked to the Scene about the restaurant and what it has to offer. How long has The Ice House been open on the Seacoast? It’s always been an ice cream place of some sort, since the 1950s. The last people who owned it, they basically gave my parents a really good deal to come in and run it for the summer and do their best. And this is what is blossomed into. What do you think makes The Ice House unique? I think it’s an old-school, family-type restaurant. You can come in and bring your kids. I like to think we’re a very fam-

ily-friendly restaurant. Now that I have children, my personal goal is to make sure everybody chills out and just has a good meal. Whether they walk in grumpy, I hope they leave happy. What is your personal favorite dish? I think that we have the best grilled cheese. When the grill has been going all day, not at the beginning of the day. I like to wait till mid-day when everything’s been cooked on the grill because it kind of soaks in the flavors.

What is a dish that you recommend everyone try? The onion rings, those are my other favorite. You definitely have to try our onion rings, because we cut the onions ourselves, we hand bread them and we cook them to order. What is an essential skill when running a restaurant? I think the thing I tell the kids that work for us is that as a worker you can be having the worst day ever but you kind of have to leave everything at the door. We are in

the making people happy business and ice cream generally helps that process along. If you could serve any celebrity, who would it be? To be honest, I’d be pretty stoked to serve any celebrity. I think Huey Lewis and one of his band mates came here. What is your favorite part about being located on the Seacoast? It’s a great atmosphere. The people are great, we have such a scenic beautiful area. — Ethan Hogan

FAMILY OWNED & OPERATED SINCE 193

It was the time of the week when dinner inspiration was scarce and fresh ingredients were even harder to find in my house. My husband was out of town, so I wanted to make something that was quick, easy and kid-friendly without needing to run to the grocery store. After a quick scavenger hunt through my pantry and refrigerator, I came up with chicken, portabella mushrooms, sprigs of thyme and sour cream. And as a bonus, deep in the recesses of the crisper drawer, of all places, was a can of breakand-bake rolls. These I could work with. At first, I thought I’d be predictable and simply bake the chicken and rolls and try to hide the mushrooms as best I could in a makeshift sauce, hoping against all odds that my kids wouldn’t notice. Instead, I grabbed a can of cream of chicken from the pantry and set to work. I started by dicing the chicken very finely into smaller-than-bite-size pieces and seasoned it with salt, pepper, garlic powder and dried basil. In a bowl, I mixed together the sour cream, cream of chicken and thyme. In a small frying pan, with a drizzle of olive oil, I began to sauté the chicken. About 1 minute in, I added the sauce mixture. Once the sauce began to bubble, I tossed in the mushrooms and stirred to coat before turning off the heat. Setting the mixture aside, I took the rolls and separated them into four squares. I spooned the mixture into the middle of each of the Chicken and Mushroom Puff

2 chicken breasts, finely chopped 1 cup cream of chicken 1 cup sour cream 4 portabella mushroom caps (or any combination of mushrooms) Fresh thyme, to taste 1 can rolls (crescent shaped work well) Salt, pepper and dried basil to taste Olive oil for pan Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Finely cut chicken into small pieces (smaller than bite-size). Season chicken with salt, pepper and basil to taste and set aside. Chop mushrooms in bite-size pieces and set

squares and folded the corners to meet in the center. I popped the “puffs” into a preheated oven and baked for about 12 minutes. These simple ingredients combined to form a savory meal. The sauce was creamy and salty, and hints of the thyme were found in every bite. The mushrooms added an earthiness the otherwise rich dish desperately needed. And the rolls were the perfect flaky, buttery complement to the creamy sauce. This recipe was conceived and constructed on the fly, but the results were delicious. The dish hit all my flavor buttons: It was creamy, salty, earthy and even had a bit of texture. And while I knew the mushrooms were there and could taste the subtle flavor in every bite, my kids were none the wiser, so I felt a little better about letting them eat their dessert first. — Lauren Mifsud aside. In a small bowl, combine sour cream, cream of chicken and thyme leaves. Drizzle olive oil in a frying pan and add chicken. Cook approximately 1 minute. Add the sauce and cook until just starting to bubble. Stir in the mushrooms and toss to coat. Remove from heat and set aside. Break the rolls into 4 squares (or more depending on how large you’d like the puffs). Add about 3 heaping tablespoons to the center of the rolls, and bring the corners to the middle to close. Cook in preheated oven for approximately 12 minutes, or until rolls are golden brown. Remove from oven, sprinkle with salt, and serve.

Cookouts and beer

Fourth a perfect blend of patriotism and beer Recently, I peered into a cooler full of ice cold beer — a beautiful sight. I saw lighter, refreshing “summer” beers, a session India pale ale (IPA), a couple new double IPAs I had not seen before, a brown ale and more. The variety was enticing. But how to decide? Would a lighter beer stand up to the bold flavors of marinated meat and barbecued chicken? Was it too hot for a brown ale? Did I want to commit to the higher alcohol of a double IPA? Stress! Beer enthusiasts will be put to the test over the Fourth of July weekend with critical beer-related decisions to make before a backdrop of piles of grilled meat and bowls of potato salad. In the ever-growing craft beer movement, there are more options than ever, and while that is without a doubt a great thing, it does force beer enthusiasts to make decisions. You can’t drink all the beer. Sorry. If you simply plunge your fist into a cooler of beer during a Fourth of July cookout and pull out whatever beer touches your fingers first, you’ll be fine. I promise. But there are some things you can keep in mind to help you maximize your beer-drinking enjoyment over the long weekend — and all summer long: What type of party is this? Is it a more active get-together, with games like volleyball? If so, think about choosing a lighter beer with a lower alcohol content, like a Great North Aleworks “Northbound” American Pilsner. Personally, I’m not going to appreciate the hop complexities of a dry-hopped pale ale featuring multiple varieties of specialty hops in between sets. But maybe I would during a more intimate, less active gathering with lots of sitting. What’s on the menu? I’m hardly a professional when it comes to pairing beers with food, but one of the things I like about IPAs and other pale ales is that they do stand up to bold flavors. Spicy wings on the menu? Grab a 603 Brewing Co. “18 Mile” Rye Pale Ale. The subtle complexities of brown ales might be lost before a plate of teriyaki steak tips. While I wouldn’t expect a fruity wheat beer to “stand up” to bold flavors, they do offer a refreshing burst of tartness that couples well with food. Keep it simple. I love exploring the best new beers I can find. But not every occasion that calls for beer-drinking needs to be about comparing tasting notes. Maybe some other guy just got a four-pack from Bissell Brothers in Maine and he can’t stop talking about it. Who cares? Grab a

beer and relax — that’s what summertime is about. You know what? Grab a Budweiser and relax. You’ll be fine. Promise. It will taste like beer. Ask questions. When you’re at a bar, you can (and should) ask the bartender for a sample before you commit to buying a full pint of something you have never tried. At a cookout, you can’t exactly crack a beer, take a sip and decide, “Nah,” and put it back. But maybe you saw the guy who walked in with that six-pack. My recommendation is to approach that person and ask him about the beer. You’ll receive beer insight and you’ll have laid the foundation for a brand new friendship. You’re welcome. Hydrate. Seriously, it’s hot out there and you have to be careful. Make sure to eat and don’t forget to drink water. Jeff Mucciarone is a senior account executive with Montagne Communications, where he provides communications support to the New Hampshire wine and spirits industry. What’s in My Fridge Samuel Adams Summer Ale: Is there anything better than sitting in front of a campfire with friends drinking beer? During a camping trip years ago, I drank a lot of “Sam Summer” by the campfire, and since then it’s been a special summer beer for me. A wheat beer, Sam Summer is refreshing with a welcome lemony burst, but not too “wheaty” and not too light either.

POP CULTURE

A night of farce and folly Seacoast Rep presents Spamalot Fans of Monty Python and the Holy Grail have a lot of new laughs to look forward to as the Seacoast Repertory Theatre presents Spamalot June 23 through July 30. Adapted from the original motion picture, Spamalot follows King Arthur on a quest to find the Holy Grail with help from his knights of the roundtable. “It’s dry, it’s silly, it doesn’t take itself too seriously, yet it’s serious in its intent to be funny,” said Jamie Bradley, a Seacoast Rep veteran and the show’s associate artistic producer. “It’s just timeless, classic British humor. If that’s the kind of thing you’re into, you’d definitely have a good time.” Seraphina Caligiure, director of youth programming and education at the Seacoast Rep, is excited to display her first mainstage production as the show’s director. “[Spamalot] is a little different than the movie; it has more of an ending and was adapted for the stage to be a musical,” said Caligiure. “This particular production of Spamalot is going to be amazing; everything from the actors to the costumes to the set is just going to be spectacular and it’s been a long time since the Seacoast Rep has done a huge dance show with a lot of big production numbers, so I’m excited for that to be back on the stage as well.” Along with being a producer, Bradley will also take the stage — as none other than King Arthur. Spamalot Where: Seacoast Repertory Theatre, 125 Bow St., Portsmouth When: June 23 through July 30, Thursdays at 7:30 p.m., Fridays at 8 p.m., Saturdays at 2 and 8 p.m., and Sundays at 2 p.m. Tickets: $20-$38. Call the box office at 603-433-4472 or visit seacoastrep.org/ tickets.

“[G]rowing up a really big fan of Monty Python, this was just a dream come true for me, something I couldn’t pass up,” Bradley said. Upon accepting the role, Bradley was faced with the challenge to create his own personal blend of two iconic actors: Graham Chapman, Monty Python’s original King Arthur, and Tim Curry, Spamalot’s original King Arthur. “When I first started, some scenes were more Chapman [where] my voice and my accent comes out more like Graham Chapman and in other scenes it was more of Tim Curry and so I’ve just been trying to make a consistency throughout the character and that’s been a challenge for me,” said Bradley. Some scenes in particular Bradley can’t wait to perform, like the one with French taunters.

So we’re very lucky to have each individual person working on this project.” While Spamalot will find a solid audience in Monty Python fans, the show is entertaining even to those unfamiliar with the British comedy group. “I just think in terms of just politically what’s happening in the world right now, comedy is definitely needed a lot right now in everyone’s lives and it’s nice to be able to go and spend two hours in a theater and put your worries aside and just have fun with those you love,” said Caligiure. “[The audience] should expect to leave with sore abs because they’ll be laughing so much.” — Nicole Kenney

“They’re the French knights that basically just make fun of Arthur when he comes to the castle to see if the lord there will help him or join him on his quest, and they just insult him and make fun of him and they hurl livestock over the top of the castle to make [Arthur and his knights] run away,” Bradley said. “It’s just a really funny scene because it’s just full of irreverent gibberish and silliness the insults are very, very British; it’s a mouthful of insults.” The 20 cast members who make up the ensemble are all local actors who have been hard at work preparing for the show up to six days per week since late May. For Caligiure, it was crucial to cast as locally as possible. “It was important to me because I knew we had the local talent,” said Caligiure. “We found the perfect people to cast these roles [and] this show is really an ensemble

New Hampshire: it’s time to get weird. The state hosts its first ever fringe festival — Fringe Seacoast — in Dover July 5 through July 11 to celebrate all that’s new, wacky, weird, inspirational and creative. The term “fringe” originated in Edinburgh, Scotland, in 1947, when a group of artists decided to create their own performing arts festival. The plan was for the event to feature all kinds of art forms — theater, music, puppetry, spoken word, dance — but content would be new, risky or unpredictable. The same went for venues; theaters would work, yes, but so would hotels, restaurants or bus stops. “They wanted to give artists a place to perform something a bit risky,” said Jamie Clavet, who’s heading Fringe Seacoast with Aimee Blessing of Theatre Unmasked, via phone. “Fringe festivals are notorious for launching new shows.” Seventy years later, the Edinburgh festival is a massive annual event attracting visitors all over the world and spawning smaller Fringe events, like this upcoming one in Dover. Clavet said she and Blessing were inspired by participating in a PortFringe fundraiser in Portland, Maine, a year ago. “[The organizers] said, it would be great if there was a Fringe festival in New Hampshire! Hint, hint!” Clavet said. “Aimee and I said, ‘Haha, that’s a funny idea, maybe!’ and they latched on that word — maybe.” Blessing and Clavet set up casual meetings with area artists at local coffee shops and bookstores. From there, they created a committee and timed the inaugural event between PortFringe (June 17 through June 24 in Portland, Maine) and FringePVD (July 24 through July 29, in Providence, Rhode Island). “Here in the Seacoast region … there are many artists looking for places to perform,” Clavet said. “At the same time, the

Seacoast is such a tourist-heavy region. People are looking for things to do that don’t include going to a bar or going out to eat. … Even though we were setting up meetings to see the interest, Aimee and I knew this was something we wanted to happen. We made a pact that if nobody helped us, we wouldn’t do it. We got lucky, and people decided to jump on board.” Fringe Seacoast features 12 different shows, all 60 minutes or less. In addition to traditional fringe productions (Fringe Mainstage), the festival includes visual art (via Fringe Pop Up Gallery, featuring artists Beth Wittenberg, Kelsey Kingston, Marissa Vitolo, Samantha Gauvain and Shelby Phoenix) and music (via Fringe Late Night, featuring bands like Mica’s Groove Train, Chris Klaxton, Buddhapillar and Johnny Crashed & The Rednecks). Some mainstage fringe performers are locals, like Ben Hart and Brandon James, the artists behind Mad Haus (A Performance Portmanteau as Conceptualized by the Mad Men of Oopsy Daisy, Inc.), which is like an hour-long circus variety show. James described it as a blend of Alice in Wonderland, Edward Gorey and Tim Burton, with acts that might involve burlesque, puppetry, drag, visual art, acrobatics or painting. “We’re really excited for this,” James said via phone. “[Fringe festivals] really enrich the culture of the communities they’re in and expose people to new, different, interesting things.” Driving up from Boston is Ingrid Oslund, who wrote and directs Women Writers Suicide Club, produced by the Boston Community Collaborative. The

new play is based on the last weeks of writers Sarah Kane, Virginia Woolf and Sylvia Plath, spanning 40 minutes and showcasing six actors. She felt New Hampshire’s first Fringe festival was a great place to take her new piece. “Massachusetts does not have a Fringe festival, which completely shocked and amazed me. … I’m from Minneapolis, Minnesota, where Fringe is huge. When I found out they were doing [the festival] an hour outside Boston, I jumped on it as quickly as possible,” Oslund said. “The type of theater I do is highly contemporary, highly conceptual and a little bit risky. Fringe festivals are a great place to test out material and take huge risks with support from fellow artists.” Much of the theater is a bit out of the ordinary — like The Ballad of Typhoid Mary by Laura Loy and Liz Faiella, which incorporates music, masks and puppetry. There Ain’t No More! Death of a Folk Singer by Willi Carlisle and Joseph Fletcher is a one-man operetta based on legends of American folk music and the early vaudeville stage. On July 11 — World Fringe Day — representatives from Scotland’s Fringe festival will phone in with a congratulatory message. Oslund plans on seeing everything, because “theater isn’t theater unless you show up for each other.” “If you do see something cool at a Fringe festival, it’s so accessible to go and talk with [the artists] afterward. If I see something I like, I want to make sure I go up and let the artist know,” Oslund said. — Kelly Sennott

Good Naked, by Joni B. Cole (University Press of New England, 191 pages) So you’ve got this idea. It could be an idea for a short story, a novel or a screenplay, but if you’re like most people, you’ve never done anything more with the idea than think of it once in a while. Early on, this thinking was done with excitement; more recently, the excitement has been replaced by guilt. Or, as Vermont writing coach Joni B. Cole memorably puts it, “Your once beautiful Great Idea now seems to bear the features of a feral pig.” In her provocatively titled book Good Naked, Cole proposes to unstick the stuck and domesticate the pig, liberating the gasping ideas that never get oxygen because their captor (that would be you) cannot answer one question: Where to begin? The Book of Genesis aside, the answer is not always “in the beginning.” The answer, Cole explains, is wherever you can find a way in. For the paralyzed artist, getting started sometimes means writing chapter 16 or stanza 20 or even the finale, then going back to the beginning once you’re in motion. It’s advice that’s been given before, but Cole, who teaches at the New Hampshire Institute of Art, is the rare writer whose technique and imagery remain with you forever, like straw stuck on fleece. Example: the Bone Pointer. A bone pointer, Cole writes, is a shaman in aboriginal Australia who delivers karmic justice with a 9-inch kangaroo femur. “The victim has no idea when the Bone Pointer will come for him, until this great spiritual power sneaks up and makes his presence known. He points the bone in the victim’s direction, but never touches him directly. Regardless, the condemned man knows he has been cursed and will surely die. Then he does.” The paralyzed writer in Peterborough or Portsmouth has his own personal bone pointer that thwarts creation with fear,

Cole says. Using the game rock-paperscissors as an analogy, she says fear always wins over craft and talent. (Often talent, glamorous as it may be, “has no real interest in working a desk job,” she says.) In another memorable anecdote, Cole writes about a friend who wanted to build an airplane from a kit but became overwhelmed by the project once she started. An advisor visited, looked at the soulkilling clutter, and offered advice that proved life-changing and airplane-finishing: “Don’t think about all the things you have left to do. Just touch the airplane three times a week.” “Just touch the plane” is the sort of gentle encouragement that the writer Anne Lamott offered in her instructional book Bird by Bird. Lamott may be better known outside of New England, but Cole is Lamott’s equal in writing about the craft with intelligence and wit, and she’s better than Elizabeth Gilbert, who similarly endeavored to inspire with her 2016 book Big Magic.

Cole’s gift, beyond a remarkable ability to anthropomorphize concepts like fear and ideas, is a winsome voice made buoyant with what some people consider excessive good cheer. A “friend” — air quotes are mine — once accused Cole of encouraging mediocrity because the coaching she does at writers’ workshops in Vermont and conventions across the country is irrepressibly sunny, as evidenced by her upbeat belief that “Just because you cannot write doesn’t mean you are not a writer.” Plus, Cole shuns Lamott’s justification of a bad first draft. “Though a first draft may be miles from polished prose or poetry, it is also far from crap, and calling it ugly names only makes it that much harder for the writer to recognize its merits,” she writes. Even if a writer does wind up pitching much of a first draft, it usually serves a noble purpose, identifying “hot spots” of value that the writer can extract and develop later. “How do we access our muse? A first draft can show us, if we aren’t too distracted by calling it names.”

The title of Good Naked comes from Cole’s explanation of “good naked” and “bad naked” and the need for writers to share first drafts in a forum that offers the comfort and safety of a poorly lit bathroom. Here, as at her Writer’s Center in White River Junction, Cole primarily addresses wordsmiths; the book’s subtitle is “reflections on how to write more, write better & be happier.” But Good Naked fits nicely into the category of self-help books that flog artists of all stripes into doing the creative work to which they feel called (but not so called that they will actually do the work without getting a shove). Steven Pressfield’s The War of Art, Julia Cameron’s The Artist’s Way, and Gilbert’s Big Magic share space on this shelf, and Good Naked is a worthy addition. If Cole doesn’t motivate you to finish that novel, watercolor or sonata, she’ll at least get you started. Alas, the bone pointer you’ll have to slay on your own. A — Jennifer Graham

ON A BOAT The New Hampshire Art Association’s latest show, “Boatscapes,” on view at the Robert Lincoln Levy Gallery (136 State St., Portsmouth) July 5 through July 30, features photographs of boat hulls taken by Renee Giffroy of Rye. She spent hours in boatyards taking these photos. “I enjoy photographing coastal images and am always searching for ways to look at common subjects differently,” Giffroy said in the press release. “Capturing these detailed images provided an opportunity to take what many consider a mundane subject and turn it into a beautiful work of art. … The challenge and fun is to discover how many of the designs resemble landscapes.” There’s an opening reception Friday, July 7, from 5 to 8 p.m., with a second reception Sunday, July 16, from 1 to 3 p.m. Visit nhartassociation.org.

Pride of Pittsburgh

Rusted Root plays Blue Ocean In a game of musical word association, the name Rusted Root invariably leads to “Send Me On My Way.” From TV ads to kids’ movies, the mid-’90s hit became ubiquitous. Through nearly three decades of constant touring and multiple albums, no song has permeated like the percolating leftfield smash, driven by the hiccuping vocal cadence of Michael Glabicki. Being a so-called one-hit wonder may be an albatross for some bands, but Rusted Root founder Glabicki brushed off the idea in a recent phone interview to help promote the Pittsburgh quintet’s upcoming Blue Ocean Music Hall show. “It’s nothing but a blessing really,” he said. “They’re gonna have their minds blown by the whole set. Never does anybody shout ‘play that song’ all night. They just rock out, and by the end of the show they go, ‘I get it.’ Especially now ... a lot of younger kids [come] because of movies like Ice Age and Matilda — they’re in college now.” Rusted Root rose to prominence with H.O.R.D.E., a 1994 caravan that featured anchors of the jam band scene in years to come like Dave Matthews Band, Big Head Todd & the Monsters, Blues Traveler and the Allman Brothers Band, creators of the package tour. News about the recent death of Gregg Allman found Glabicki reflective. “He came across as a gentle soul, loving,” he said. “It saddened me that [he is] no longer here on this earth. It also reminded me of everything we’d learned from them by being in their proximity.” These were playful times for the young band roaming the country with one of its key influences. Rusted Root with Freevolt When: Thursday, July 6, 8 p.m. Where: Blue Ocean Music Hall, 4 Oceanfront North, Salisbury Tickets: $23 at blueoceanhall.com

“When we’d sound check, his organ was always right next to me, and I would sneak over and steal a cigarette,” Glabicki recalled. “He would always smoke two out of a pack and throw the rest in his seat, so there were always packs there. I would be a kid; that was my ritual, sneak one of Gregg’s cigarettes; it was always a fun thing.” Carlos Santana is a performer who provided important guidance in those early days. “One night after watching us from the side of the stage, he came up to me and sort of tapped me on the chest and said, ‘You need to get angry out there!’ and sort of walked away,” Glabicki said with a laugh. “I think what he was saying is there’s a real power in anger if you use it the right way, both in the sense of bringing anger into the music and opening different doors … but I also think he was saying as a bandleader, he saw me as being a little too democratic. I needed to make some things happen through that anger.” One of Rusted Root’s three remaining original members — the others are singer-percussionist Liz Berlin and bass player Patrick Norman — Glabicki created the group’s singular acoustic rock sound woodshedding in his bedroom.

“It was completely a process of isolating myself as a songwriter, as a sort of visionary for the band; I came up with it completely internally,” he said. “Some people start with blues and rock, and they sort of find a unique thing from that. I wanted to … come up with a sound that resonated through me

inside, then sort of build the technical structures around it?” Glabicki’s voice rose with this last thought, as if quizzing himself or asking the listener for confirmation. “That’s how it happened,” he said firmly. “I literally locked myself up. At that time I didn’t have much money, so it was loaves of bread and peanut butter and jelly, and just go into a room … stay there for weeks until something came up.” The band’s curious name, on the other hand, was a fortuitous accident that came to embody its Rust Belt hometown. “We just came up with it. We didn’t discuss it much; we needed a name really quick,” Glabicki said. “But over the years it’s come to mean [this] industrial town — people are always surprised we come from here [and] I think finding the spiritual core here in Pittsburgh is kind of unique in itself. The name Rusted Root kind of displays that. There’s a lot of earth spirituality, and symbols of nature, that sort of thing. ... For me, that’s the message.” — Michael Witthaus

• Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Today is a day you shouldn’t be afraid to let your imagination run wild! That’s what I do when I make up these horoscopes. • Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Take time today to ease into any situation that comes up, especially when you go to try on that new pair of pants.

Seabrook Beach, NH

• Aries (March 21-April 19): Your tendency to exaggerate will get so out of hand, the fate of all mankind will hang in the balance. • Taurus (April 20-May 20): Do your own thing and take care of your own business. And when you do, just be sure to close the door.

• Gemini (May 21-June 20): Love could play an important role in changing your life. So for you, things will pretty much stay the same. • Cancer (June 21-July 22): Taking a long trip could mean lots of new friends, though only because so many people back home will forget about you. • Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): A shopping

• Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Don’t believe everything you read, except today’s horoscope for Gemini. I swear that one is really true. Really. • Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): You will find yourself somewhat forgetful today, though for the life of me I can’t remember exactly why. • Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Look over your financial papers today. And while you’re at it, time to clean out the bird cage as well. • Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Today you have nothing to lose and everything to gain! So it’s not the best day to sign up for Weight Watchers. • Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): Try to ignore what’s going on in your personal life, which in your case really shouldn’t be that hard.

Recurring themes

• In some parts of traditional Japanese society, it remains not uncommon for someone to feel the need to “rent” “friends.” For example, relatives at a funeral bear grief better if they realize the many “friends” the deceased had. Or, a working man or woman may rent a sweetheart just to help deflect parental pressure to marry. In northern China, in April, a man was arrested for renting “family” and “friends” to populate his side of the aisle at his wedding. Apparently, there were conflicts plaguing each family, and police were investigating, but the groom surely worsened the plan by not coaching the actors on his personal details, thus making interfamily smalltalk especially awkward. • Our Litigious Society: (1) David Waugaman, 57, fell off a barstool last year and needed surgery, and of course he is suing the tavern at Ziggy’s Hotel in Youngwood, Pennsylvania, for continuing to serve him before he fell. Wrote Waugaman, “You’re not supposed to feed people so much booze.” (2) Robert Bratton filed a lawsuit recently in Columbia, Missouri, against the Hershey chocolate company because there was too much empty space in his grocery-store box of Reese’s Pieces, which he thought was “deceptive” (even though the correct number of Pieces was printed on the label). In May, federal judge Nanette Laughrey ruled that Bratton’s case could continue for the jury to decide. • Latest From Offended Classes: (1) Some minority students’ organizations, commenting on the planned extensive renovation of the University of

Michigan’s student union building, recommended ditching the current interior’s elegant wood paneling because it gives off an “imposing, masculine” feeling that makes them seem “marginalized.” A spokesperson for the students, attempting to soothe the controversy, said the marginalization was more based on the building’s “quiet nature.” (2) In Australia, Chanel’s just-introduced luxury woodand-resin boomerang (selling for the equivalent of about $1,415) came under fire from aboriginal groups for “cultural appropriation.” (Hermes had issued its own luxury boomerang in 2013.) • For not the first time in News of the Weird’s experience, a man shot himself but had the bullet pass through him and hit a bystander (except this time it was fatal to the bystander). Victor Sibson, 21, was charged in Anchorage, Alaska, in May with killing his girlfriend even though he had aimed at his own head. Investigators were persuaded that it was a genuine attempt, though he survived, but in critical condition. • More Animals With Affordable Health Care: In April, the annual report of the Association of British Insurers on its members’ policies for pet owners noted that among the claims paid were those for a bearded dragon with an abscess, an anorexic Burmese python, a cocker spaniel that swallowed a turkey baster, a cockatoo with respiratory problems, and even a “lethargic” house cat (which nonetheless cost the equivalent of $470 to treat). • Legal “Experts” Everywhere! American “sovereigns” litter courtrooms with their self-indulgent misreadings of history and the Constitution (misreadings that,

SEACOAST SCENE | JUNE 15 - 21, 2017 | PAGE 58

coincidentally, happen to favor them with free passes on arrests and tax-paying), but now, the U.K.’s Exeter Crown Court has experienced Mark Angell, 41, who said in May that he simply could not step into the courtroom dock to state a plea concerning possession of cannabis because he would thus be “submitting” to “maritime law,” which he could not legally do on dry land. Judge: “Don’t talk nonsense. Get in the dock.” Angell was ordered to trial. Before leaving, he gave the judge a bill for his detention: the equivalent of $2.5 million. • More Third-World Religion: In March, Zimbabwean pastor Paul Sanyangore of Victory World International Ministries was captured on video during a sermon telephoning God. Clutching a phone to his ear, he yelled, “Hello, is this heaven? I have a woman here, what do you have to say about her?” (Her two children, one epileptic, the other asthmatic, are then confusingly described by “heaven” as being “changed,” and Paul ended the call to resounding cheers from the congregation.) More of the World’s Third-Oldest Crime (Smuggling): (1) In the latest awesome drug-mule haul of gold (into South Korea, where it fetches higher prices than in neighboring countries), 51 people were

arrested in May for bringing in, over a two-year period, a cumulative two tons, worth $99 million, by hiding it in body parts. (2) Customs officials in Abdali, Kuwait, apprehended a pigeon in May with 178 ketamine pills inside a fabric pocket attached to its back.

PET OF THE WEEK There are some dogs here whom everyone wants to walk. Fawn is one of them. She is just a nice dog who is happy despite her homelessness. Fawn is a 4-year-old pitbull mix who was brought to the shelter because her family was moving and couldn’t take her along. Fawn, who has a beautiful tan and white coat and a big smile, seems fine with the cats she has met but should go to a dog free home. If there are children in her forever home, they should be older. Fawn previously lived with children. If you’re looking for a canine friend with a sunny disposition, come meet this girl. You’ll want to walk her, too. You can see her at the New Hampshire SPCA in Stratham. For more information call 603-772-2921 or visit spcanh.com.
