DIAMONDBACK: The Conserve Wildlife Foundation of N.J. aims to protect terrapins.

Learn About Terrapin History, Stewardship

top by the Jacques Cousteau Coastal Education Center at 7 p.m. on Thursday, May 24, to learn about northern diamondback terrapins, and, more speciﬁcally, how to help prevent road kills of this species along Great Bay Boulevard in Little Egg Harbor. Ben Wurst, habitat program manager at the Conserve Wildlife Foundation of New Jersey, will discuss the life history of terrapins; provide background on this terrapin steward project, a Conserve Wildlife venture in partnership with the Jacques Cousteau Center; and speak about various volunteer opportunities available throughout the summer, including “conducting road patrols and educating people along the road,” said Wurst. “With slow reproductive rates and high mortality rates, northern diamondback terrapins are becoming smaller and less numerous in Barnegat Bay,” he noted. “I believe that with increased awareness, education and conservation initiatives we can help reduce the chances that the population becomes endangered in New Jersey.” The education center – a hub for education and outreach programs associated with the Jacques Cousteau National Estuarine Research Reserve, administered through Rutgers University – is located at 130 Great Bay Blvd. in Tuckerton. For more information, contact Wurst at ben.wurst@conservewildlifenj.org or Kim Capone at the Jacques Cousteau Center at 609-812-0649, extension 203. —J.K.-H. exercise programs, cholesterol screenings for lowincome seniors, babysitting basics and more.

ll area lifeguards – whether ocean, bay, lake or pool – are invited to an ecumenical blessing ceremony at the St. Francis Aquatic Center in Brant Beach on Saturday, May 26, at 4:45 p.m. Any local guard, from the Island or mainland, is welcome to attend the blessing regardless of religious affiliation, as are members of the public. Last year, approximately 125 lifeguards, family members and friends attended, said Joanne Reeder, coordinator of worship for the St. Francis of Assisi Parish. Sr. Pat McNiff, a member of the pastoral staff, will perform the blessing this year. “The annual blessing began five years ago when Fr. Steve Kluge, pastor of St. Francis of Assisi Parish, wanted to do something special for the dedicated men and women who guard our residents and visitors as they enjoy the lagoons, swimming pools, the bay and the ocean that are such an important part of our unique community,” said Reeder. “And so began this event when we come together to ask God to bless and keep all the lifeguards whose skills and diligence serve to safeguard us all.” Reeder worked in conjunction with Mike Thompson from the St. Francis Recreation Department, as well as Long Beach Township Beach Supervisor Don Myers, to coordinate this event. Annual swim tests for the township beach patrol will directly follow the ceremony. For more information, contact the center at 609-494-8861. Information is also available online, at stfranciscenterlbi.com. —J.K.-H.

n Barnegat Light, the annual auction to benefit the fire company is a Memorial Day weekend Saturday tradition. Yearrounders reunite with neighbors who are back for the summer (and anyone else is heartily welcomed), the food is delicious, and the bidding gets spirited as the cash bar heightens enthusiasm. Lead auctioneer Ron Chaffee is eloquent at extolling the virtues of each auction item, but that’s not so tall an order when they sell themselves, as they will this year on Saturday, May 26, at the firehouse on West 10th Street, starting at 6:30 p.m. Doors open at 5:30 p.m. for browsing and hors d’oeuvres. Art and artisanship are highlights in paintings such as the Barnegat Light landscape by an accomplished French artist, and an impressive maritime-themed quilt. Artist Marie Maniez was born in Paris in 1956 and was married in Barnegat Light, where she resides. Her painting of Barnegat Lighthouse as framed by meadow grasses will be a prized acquisition by the winning bidder. In this view, the Island icon is seen from across a meadow, heightening the billowing sky against it. A sunlit sailboat finishes the perfection of a warm and breezy summer day that the observer can almost feel. Maniez obtained a Master of Fine Art and of Art History at the University of Aix en Provence, France. Over the years, she has produced more than 1,500 works, specializing in trompe l’oeil on canvases and directly on walls. She completed 300 indoor mural paintings in private homes and in public places such as hotels and restaurants. She also restored antique paintings on ceilings and walls of private residences in the South of France. Free Customer Workshop, The Home Depot, 197 Rte. 72 West, Manahawkin.

Awarded in France and recognized many times in the French media, she has made her mark on the Long Beach Island art scene as well. She obtained a first place at an LBI Foundation of the Arts and Sciences exhibition for a large painting of the Viking Village commercial fishing port, titled, “Winter Morning.” Four of her paintings are on display at the LBIF in Loveladies from now until Aug. 16. The quilting abilities of Carol Devine, of White’s Barnegat Light Market, will again grace the auction. This year’s quilt is titled, “Heading Home.” In the center it features a traditional mariner’s compass, surrounded by appliqués reminiscent of breaking waves. At the heart of the quilt is Barnegat Lighthouse itself. The 92-by-92-inch quilt fits a Queensized bed and can be machine-washed and dried. Devine designed, pieced and quilted the creation. Among other items generously donated for the auction are: a day trip aboard the Lucky 13 scallop boat out of Barnegat Light; two tickets to “Nice Work If You Can Get It,” starring Matthew Broderick at the Imperial Theater in New York City; a limited edition Lee Wagner print entitled “Summer Regatta;” “Stars and Stripers” painting on wood by Jack Ryan; a Chris Pfeil photograph; child’s playhouse; fine decorative items for the home; beach equipment and more, said Dottie Reynolds, publicity chairperson for the auxiliary.

If so, you’re welcome to participate in an open mike night at the Long Beach Island branch of the Ocean County Library in Surf City Wednesday, May 30, at 6:30 p.m. Refreshments will be served. Event coordinator Margaret Hawke said the program, sponsored by the Friends of the Island Library, grew out of the adult writers group, which meets Tuesdays from 1 to 3 p.m. Hawke started the group in 2006. “We welcome you (to) share a poem, memoir, essay or short story,” said Hawke, who said material is limited to four doublespaced typewritten pages. She said that after the reading, audience members may offer critiques and comments. “We’re there to help each other out,” said Hawke, “and also have fun. During the summer, we welcome vacationers who love writing to join us on Tuesdays. We have both published and nonpublished writers.” A retired nursing home administrator, Hawke said her writing experience included articles about nursing and health topics for various magazines. For more information about the event, call the branch at 609-494-2480. —E.E. The event beneﬁts Lighthouse Christian Academy and includes a meet-and-greet with former NFL/ Jets players.

Relay for Life Teams Prepare

he American Cancer Society Relay for Life in Manahawkin is June 1 and 2, from 5 p.m. Friday to 6 a.m. the following morning. The event takes place on the Southern Regional High School track, where at least one member of each participating team will be doing laps around the track at all times. The Relay events that take place throughout the country can be as long as 24 hours “because cancer never sleeps.” Locally the event is co-chaired by Susan Foster and Barbara O’Connor. Foster has been involved for 13 years; for most of that time she handled logistics, but this is her second year as co-chair. The theme of this year’s event is “Shine a Light on the Cure.” Typically about 50 teams participate, Foster said, as well as community members who want to take part by walking or cheering on the teams. The Relay is not a race or competition; it’s a community event that represents interconnectedness of people and organizations working together in the ongoing ﬁght against cancer. Forty-some teams have already registered and are raising funds using the “Virtual Cancer Fighters” online tool at relayforlife. org/manahawkinnj. It’s hard to give an exact number of teams, Foster said, because new people are signing up every day. Teams can sign up anytime between now and June 1, and teams can continue to raise donations through the end of August. The chairwomen are still looking for people to RSVP for the survivor dinner, which is open to survivors and caregivers and takes place June 1 at 5 p.m. in the 1112 cafeteria. All are welcome, but the staff would appreciate a head count to prepare for the food. The dinner kicks off the two-day event, which also features a moving Luminaria Ceremony, wherein glowing bags line the perimeter of the track – each bag a $5 donation, decorated in memory of a loved one or in some way dedicated to the cause. Throughout the night, music, activities and games keep the participants moving and the mood lively. The event reminds all participants to “celebrate, remember and ﬁght back.” —V.L.

First Aid Squad Asks, Could You Be at Risk?

o you know the symptoms of a stroke? Are you aware of how you can prevent yourself from being at risk for having one? These questions and more will be answered on Wednesday, May 30, at 7 p.m. when the Barnegat First Aid Squad holds a stroke awareness program at the township community center in the municipal complex on West Bay Avenue. The speaker is Chris Mondie, a squad member who is a student at the Newark College of Osteopathic Medicine. Mondie said that basically, strokes are a rapid loss of brain function due to sudden lack of blood ﬂow to the brain. They can be caused by a blockage in blood vessels or bleeding in the brain. He said symptoms of strokes can include muscle weakness, numbness or tingling on one side of the body, loss of balance, vision changes, impaired speech, confusion and loss of consciousness. “Some people can have mini-strokes, or a transient ischemic attack,” said Mondie, who has a bachelor’s degree in neuroscience from the Rider University pre-med program. “These temporarily mimic the symptoms of strokes, and usually normal functions can return fairly quickly. But if you have one, that is a good indicator you may be at risk for a stroke later on.” Mondie said he would stress the importance of having regular blood pressure screenings and having one’s blood tested for cholesterol and triglycerides. “Smoking and drinking make you more at risk for strokes,” he said. “You should exercise regularly and watch your intake of salt and fatty foods.” James Goldstein, squad president, said there would be a question and answer session. Refreshments will be served. “Our goal is to have more of these community health programs,” he said. “It gives us a chance to reach out to our residents.” For more information, call the squad’s non-emergency line at 609-698-7868. —E.E.

19th Street Clay Studio Artists Party By PAT JOHNSON he m.t. burton gallery was packed Saturday night for the opening reception for six artists who call the 19th Street Clay Studio in Surf City home. Artists, family and friends moved through the galleries, into the clay studio for cheese tidbits, then out to the sculpture garden to pull iced beer out of galvanized tubs. It felt very much like the summer season at LBI had started. This was Sue Troy’s first art opening. Troy took up ceramics at the m.t. burton gallery a year after she retired from her job as an English teacher in 2006. She walks from her residence in Surf City once a week. “I found something that means so much to me, and it’s right here.” Troy makes all her own bowls and dishes. “My son-in-law and I cook together, and it’s so much fun to create the food and then send it out to the table on something I’ve made.” Jodi Schwartz has an easy commute from Ship Bottom. A graduate of the Rhode Island School of Design, she’s been at the 19th Street Clay Studio for three years. “I was a jewelry designer for 15 years, and I ran out of ideas in that medium, so I changed directions. I love doing ceramics; there are so many different ways of working in it.” She hand built the wall pieces, and her vases are made in the coiled-pot tradition. The wall pieces have a seatheme: sea horses, starf ish and octopi. “I work from photos, but I don’t do a literal translation. At some point the art takes over. I like to give them a personality.” For three years, Alison McClellan, a retired graphic artist, has been driving down from Toms River every week to take the studio class from Matt Burton. She prefers to hand build her platters and dishes, sometimes using shells she finds on the beach as stamps to create texture. “I love the beach, so I love to incorporate it into my work,” she said. Susan Stasse also drives to the Island, from Forked River “We moved from the Princeton area, and I was looking for a pottery venue here.” When Stasse retired as a teacher two years ago, the desire to create was overwhelming. “I started making things on my own using Sculpey clay, but a piece I made for my husband broke, so I wanted to work in a clay studio.” The comical heads she makes are not based on anyone she knows, she said. “They all came out of my own head.” It takes Marianne Seela 40 minutes to drive in from Manchester, a trip she gladly makes. Seela likes to make functional pieces using the electric potter’s wheel. “This is my eighth year, and I’m still perfecting everything on the wheel. You always get better; that’s the thing I love the most about it. I found it in mid-life. It’s about personal growth, and I’m so glad I found it; it’s part of myself. I’ve grown with my art. I gave away a (commercial) dish service of 16 that I had, and now I use only my own.” Alice McEnerney Cook is primarily a painter, and her large oil paintings are part of the exhibit, but she also takes ceramics with Matt Burton. “I took classes on the pottery wheel 40 years ago and taught ceramics for years as an art teacher.

Now that I’m retired, I have a chance to do my own stuff.” McEnerney Cook has made a name for herself with her many paintings of the Atlantic coastal salt marshes, such as her large “Marsh Fire” and “Idyllic,” hanging in the front gallery. This spring the artist taught plein air painting to educators at the Anheuser Busch Coastal Research Center located in Oyster, Va., and has been asked back to do a two-week summer artist-in-residence at the center the end of June. “It’s a partnership, an art/science workshop with the director doing the science part. It will combine art and science and why protecting this type of environment is so important. It could be the prototype for more workshops. “Knowing the marshes is becoming this whole other career for me,” said McEnerney Cook. “Who knew?” The 19th Street Clay Studio Artists show continues through June 20.

n the spirit of the upcoming Memorial Day weekend, I have a special message. It’s directed at a certain group among those returning to LBI yearning for a cool ocean breeze, a game of volleyball, a bucket of garlic mussels and, with a little luck, a trip to the Pancake House with someone you met seven hours earlier over Red Bull and vodkas. This message is to my friends, the Guidos, who will be coming over the bridge in new gym shorts to rage this summer. Let me start by offering my sympathies. That the garbage reality show on MTV has given you guys a bad name. Of course folks in the Garden State have been up in arms about “Jersey Shore,” since the minute Snookie opened her mouth. From the night the show aired in 2009, New Jerseyans have responded with righteous indignation. “That’s not the real Jersey Shore!” they say, defensively. Of course it’s not, knucklehead. If there’s one thing you should know about reality TV – and this includes everything from the 1992 premiere of “The Real World,” to the most recent episode of “Obese and Expecting” – there’s nothing very real about it. It’s life encapsulated in an easily digestible 23-minute package. Granted, those who have turned Seaside Heights into a caricature of its former self are a little rough on your digestive track. But if there weren’t some truth, the show simply wouldn’t be funny. I’ll never forget the night my friends Kerry and Glenn Miller hosted a “Guido Party” in Ship Bottom about 10 years ago. Somewhere I have a photo of me with jean shorts and a tank top and my wife in gold sequined pants. Due to some confusion, an Australian friend of ours missed his ride and wound up walking two miles from Surf City down the Boulevard on a July night in a sweatband and fur coat. He arrived with hysterical stories of harassment and asking in his Aussie accent, “Whot the hell is a guido anywhyyyy?” The fact is that guidos don’t just exist north of the Raritan River. In the 1970s and ’80s, Ocean County’s population more than doubled, mostly due to a migration down the Parkway. A portion was retired bluehairs, but there were also a lot of good ol’ Nawth Jursey families looking for some breathin’ room. We grew up with guidos and their Z Cavaricci pants, Drakkar Noir cologne and that god-awful music. Some became our friends. We surfed, bussed tables, played hoops and ate pizza together. (But we still never listened to their music.) LBI obviously isn’t a JWOWW stronghold like other towns in our 129 miles of coastline. When it comes to fist pumping, we just don’t

have the biceps to keep up with Belmar, Seaside and AC. But we do have our fair share of Tonys wearing women’s-size tank tops and Deenas with scaffolding in their hair. Even without the classic signs, they’re not hard to spot. You’ll find them picking up the New York Times at Bageleddi’s, DJing weddings, requesting a switch from the Phils game to the Yanks at the Sea Shell, and giving emotional Sinatra karaoke performances at the Surf City Hotel after a few shots of ’Buca. They’re not all orange-skinned Situations with bad pickup lines. There’s one LBI restaurant owner who I call “my favorite guido.” Snooki couldn’t keep up with her for five freakin’ minutes. Last weekend I had my first guido encounter of the season. I walked my dog straight through a pack of muscular gentlemen with all-over printed T-shirts getting into a sports car. One fella noticed my four-legged wingman and announced, “Yo, dat’s a solid pooch right there.” I nodded a thank you for the compliment and continued on my way. I like that kind of frankness. I like big families eating pasta dinners on small front porches and the guy with a crucifix on the end of his gold chain who tips 25 percent. And so, welcome back to LBI everyone, including you guidos. Jager bombs are on me. * * * Sometime around the middle of June I usually devote one full column to hurricane season. Officially, hurricane season kicks off on June 1. There are actually tailgating meteorologists who do burgers and beers out of the back of their cars at the National Hurricane Center HQ parking lot in anticipation. Then they all gather around their laptops and wait for convection to form in the Intertropical Convergence Zone. Just don’t get those geeks started on Hurricane Hugo vs. Hurricane Ivan. It’s been know to get violent, with touch screens getting smashed and avatars being sent to the hospital. When you talk tropics, though, June tends to be about as much fun as a long car ride with Rick Perry and Rosie O’Donnell. We all know the party heats up in August. But here we are in the third week of May, with our first spinner off the Southeast coast. Tropical Storm Alberto formed on Saturday just east of Charleston. He did a little counter clockwise loop and is moving northeast, just off the Outer Banks as a subtropical storm. Now this was never, nor will it ever be a serious storm. It topped out with 50 mph winds on Wednesday. LBI gets 50 mph winds on random Continued on Page 42, Sec. 2

By BILL GEIGER ake a moment to go outside and sniff the air. Besides the pleasant scent of the blooming flowers of spring, one catches an unmistakable whiff of lighter fluid, that stuff backyard chefs and other ordinary Joes spread all over their charcoal to light up the grill and get those briquettes glowing – as unmistakable a smell of spring as the aroma of azaleas or the tang of tansies. But if it’s spring, and the grills are glowing, it must mean one other thing too – time for DVDiscussion to rev up the old DVD player and put a dent in the comfy couch. We’re back, and our mission, should we decide to accept it, is to scout out the flicks that have made their way from the big screen to the small and render some kind of judgment on the quality of said film. We use the infamous “popcorn code” to judge the films, where bags of popcorn equal the movie’s quality. Sometimes we judge the film as a good one – meriting three or four bags of popcorn depending on its goodness, and sometimes, if the film’s a real stinker, we give it one bag, or no bags – just those hard kernels on the bottom of the bag. The unpopped kernels, the kind you can break a molar on, are reserved for those unredeemable flicks that should never have been made in the first place. So sit back, get comfy, put your feet up, and enjoy the films. Just remember – movie watching is a singular endeavor, which should never be encroached upon by outside interests. We can’t let stuff interfere, like political advertisements, or whether the Beach Haven beach will get replenished, or the price of beach badges. Films

Overheard this week ... in Manahawkin: “Once Ronnie got into drugs, Jonnie got out.” * “The dust hasn’t been bitten, it’s just been nibbled.” ... at Nardi’s Tavern, Haven Beach: Young woman: “I don’t always drink much, but when I do, I drink at Nardi’s.” ... at the Pour Into Summer Wine Festival, Beach Haven: Sunbather: “Just a good afternoon of wine sipping …” ... at Stafford Intermediate School’s DARE program graduation: Fifth-grader, in a crowd of students: “I lost the new girl.” * Fifth-grader, after the BMX demonstration: “I’m gonna Superman it. As long as you believe in yourself and that you can do it, it’s going to happen.”

are our main goal, so let’s get watching. In the immortal words of Star Trek’s Captain Kirk, let’s see what’s out there. As this is our first column of the summer, we always look back to the more recent releases to see what good flicks might have emerged over the last few months. Meryl Streep, who won an Oscar for her troubles, stars as Margaret Thatcher in “Iron Lady,” a mesmerizing performance that channels the former Prime Minister in a way that only an actress of Streep’s quality can do. “Iron Lady” was released to DVD in mid-April, and Streep’s Oscar was the third of her career and proves, once again, that if there’s any kind of a film role, Streep can do it. We’ll give four bags of popcorn for “Iron Lady.” Earlier in April, Steven Spielberg’s “War Horse” was released on DVD, a stirring action/drama about a struggling family’s horse, much beloved by the film’s protagonist, Albert, that is sold to the cavalry and sent to war in France. Through much adventure, and danger, Albert and his horse are united, and then the war ends, and the horse is sent for auction. A solid effort from Spielberg, with some pretty strong battle sequences showing the futility of war in general and The Great War in particular. We’ll give three bags for “War Horse.” Back in March, director David Fincher released “The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo,” the U.S. remake of the Swedish flick made from Stieg Larsson’s book of the same name, with Rooney Mara as the highly enigmatic cyber-punk Lisbeth Salander and Daniel Craig as Mikael Blomkvist, investigative journalist looking into a 40-year-old crime involving a prominent rich family. Good acting, good story, four bags of popcorn. Another four-bagger from March is “Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy,” the remake of John Le Carré’s novel of some dubious double dealings during the Cold War, with Gary Oldman playing George Smiley, looking to ferret out a double agent in Britain’s spy network, MI6. A fine adaptation of the novel, with an excellent cast in director Tom Alfredson’s nifty flick. Quite on the opposite end of the entertainment spectrum is “The Muppets,” Jason Segel’s ode to muppetdom with costar Amy Adams and a host of the funny fuzzy creatures resurrected from a variety of strange backstories since their last film. Segel is a co-writer and, along with director James Bobin, reunites the Muppets of old, Kermit, Miss Piggy, etc., to go up against a greedy oil tycoon by putting on one last show. I’ve never been much of a fan of the Muppets, but there’s a heart-tugging vibe in Segel’s homage, so we’ll give it three bags of popcorn. Another bubbly family pic is “We Bought a Zoo,” with Matt Damon as a widower and patriarch of a family trying to hold things together by moving to Southern California and buying a big house, with a zoo attached. Soon he is struggling with the animals, the zoo inspectors and the prospect of losing a ton of money. This April release is better than its title suggests, and since Damon is so darn earnest, we’ll give three bags of popcorn for this corny flick, heavy on the syrup. An April flick that will blast all the butter right off the popcorn is “Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol,” the fourth “Mission: Impossible” flick with Tom Cruise as Ethan Hunt and Jeremy Renner, Simon Pegg and Paula Patton rounding out the cast. The action is nonstop, the stunts amazing, and the story stimulating as Hunt and his team must go undercover to find out who blew up the Kremlin and is trying to launch a rogue nuclear strike. Grab four bags for this one. Continued on Page 40, Sec. 2

But Where Do They Fall on the Popcorn Rating Scale?

THE SANDPAPER/WEDNESDAY, MAY 23, 2012

Legendary ‘Pine Baron’ Jim Murphy Dies at 79 Movie Menu Offers Feast For the Mind Continued from Page 39, Sec. 2 Onto the new flicks. We have a few that are worthy of mention. One that might not be worthy, though, depending on your perception, is “The Vow,” a film that’s barely a step away from total sap. “The Vow” stars Channing Tatum and Rachael McAdams. After McAdams’ character Paige goes into a coma as a result of a car accident, she wakes up with memory loss and doesn’t recognize her husband, Leo (Tatum). She is torn between her family, whom she hasn’t seen for years, and Leo, so Leo must work hard to help her fall in love with him all over again. Whew! No doubt this film is intended for a particular audience, but in general the stars are likable and the syrup isn’t as heavy as it could be – still, we’ll give it two bags of popcorn, and yearn for “Mission: Impossible” all over again. Another one that could be a bit syrupy is “New Year’s Eve,” a Garry Marshall flick focusing on a holiday, much like his semi-hit “Valentine’s Day.” The formula: pick a holiday that people get all gooey over, and populate said holiday with lots of big stars looking for love, and you have “New Year’s Eve.” All that’s missing is Guy Lombardo. The film does have Michelle Pfeiffer, Robert De Niro, Zac Efron, Jessica Biel and Jon Bon Jovi, among many, many others. Trouble is the multiple stories are a bit creaky and Marshall directs like he’s making a television sitcom, so don’t expect too much. It doesn’t get more than two bags of popcorn, either. One film that’s a bit intriguing is “Haywire,” from venerable director Stephen Soderbergh, about a covert operative who, after a dangerous mission, is double-crossed and betrayed, and her fight to protect herself and exact vengeance on her betrayers.

ew Jersey lost one of its greatest bluegrass legends when Jim Murphy died May 15 at Jersey Shore University Medical Center in Neptune. He was 79. For nearly 45 years, Murphy headed his band the Pine Barons. They were regular monthly performers at Albert Music Hall in Waretown. The music hall is run by the Pinelands Cultural and Historical Preservation Society. Its president, Roy Everett, said Murphy was “more than a great performer.” “He was a musicologist,” he said. “Jim was an expert on the history of bluegrass and old country music, and he would often give insights on history during his concerts.” Everett said Murphy took a particular interest in music from the Bristol sessions in 1927, which spawned the careers of pioneer artists such as Jimmie Rodgers and the Carter family. “These were some of the earliest commercial recordings of country music,” said Everett. “Jim enjoyed playing many of those songs in his concerts. He was very true to his roots.” A retired assistant superintendent of schools for Brick Township, Murphy became the first New Jersey inductee into the Old Time Country Music Hall of Fame. One year later, Murphy was presented with a lifetime achievement award by Rutgers University at the annual New Jersey Folk Festival. Everett said that in 1998, the Pine Barons were named Band of the Year by the National Traditional

Music Association. “Jim was still going strong early this year,” said Everett. “He performed at our Irish concert at Albert Hall in March.” Frank Daniels, who coordinates concerts for the Bluegrass and Old Time Music Association of New Jersey, said Murphy was especially fond of the music of Hank Williams. “He would go down South and

play at tribute shows featuring Williams’ songs,” said Daniels. “At the Albert Hall, he did a program where he would play songs and records of Hanks Williams and talk about his life.” On the association’s web site, www.njblugrass.org, longtime Pine Barons bandmate Joe Fili wrote, “Jim Murphy was both mentor and musical father to me. When he first

hired me to play in the Pine Barons, I could barely play the fiddle. He stuck with me, gave me confidence and helped me get beyond stage fright. With the patience of a saint, he stood by as I developed my playing.” Murphy is survived by his wife of 59 years, Shelagh Marie, six children and 13 grandchildren. — Eric Englund

Soderbergh hired mixed martial artist Gina Carano to play the covert op Mallory Kane, and she acquits herself fairly well, but she has to share screen time with Channing Tatum, Michael Fassbender, Antonio Banderas, Ewen McGregor and Michael Douglas, so that’s a big order to fill. “Haywire” is not too bad, though, and the fight scenes are very well played. We’ll give two bags of popcorn for this flick. Earlier in the review we mentioned there are not too many roles Meryl

Streep can’t play. The same might be said for Glenn Close, who turns in an Oscar-nominated performance in “Albert Nobbs,” playing a man in 19th-century Ireland. The society in which he lives does not permit much freedom for women, so “Albert” lives a false life as a waiter in a posh hotel. Circumstances force him to reevaluate his choice, however, and he realizes he may not be able to keep up his deception for long. Close is mesmerizing as Albert, and truly deserved her Oscar

nomination. Pity she had to contend with Streep. We’ll give four bags of popcorn for “Albert Nobbs.” Bring a box of tissues, too. In “The Grey,” Liam Neeson, one of the best male actors out there, plays Ottway, a hunter with superior survival skills who must lead a group of oil workers to safety when their plane crashes in the arctic wilderness. It’s tough enough to survive in those harsh arctic conditions, but a pack of wolves knows the survivors are on the

ropes and hunts their every step. So Ottway must protect the workers from the wolves, too. Joe Carnahan directs and Dermot Mulroney costars. We’ll reserve three bags of popcorn for the high tension of this film. For a whole other experience, there’s another “Underworld” flick out there, this one called “Awakening.” It’s got a rather convoluted story line, but Kate Beckinsale returns as Selene, the vampire who is attacked and knocked out by a grenade and awakens 12 years later to find she has a powerful daughter who is half vampire and half lycan. I know, I don’t understand it either, but there must be a following for this stuff or they wouldn’t be making these flicks. Besides, Kate Beckinsale looks so good in that black jumpsuit she wears. This one gets one bag of popcorn, and that’s being generous. Submarine Films: There’s a scene in “Crimson Tide” where the officers of the U.S.S. Alabama sit around and recount the great submarine movies they know. I thought it might be interesting to highlight one every week this summer, starting with this week. Submarine films are really cool because they can be so claustrophobic, which ratchets up the tension. One such film that focuses on such tension is Wolfgang Peterson’s “Das Boot,” of special interest because it tells the story from the point of view of a German U-boat, not from the usual American side. The boat plays cat and mouse with Allied destroyers all throughout the film, and if the destroyers aren’t gunning for it, spotter planes are from above. “Das Boot” is a superlative film, on the long side, time-wise, but worth the effort. Grab that comfy chair and pop four bags for this flick, as it’s worth every kernel. And a few commanders, too. Also for Your Consideration … Fans of Whitney Houston might like to know that a 20th anniversary

edition of her film with Kevin Costner, “The Bodyguard,” has recently been released. The 9/11 disaster has been reimagined in “Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close,” a fine Stephen Daldry film with Tom Hanks, Sandra Bullock and a wonderful Thomas Horn, who plays a boy who lost his father in the 9/11 bombings … a rich and poignant film. Among many flicks new to Blu-ray is “Chinatown,” the Jack Nicholson film directed by Roman Polanski. Also new to DVD is “The Frank Sinatra Collection,” including the films “Von Ryan’s Express” and “The Manchurian Candidate,” two excellent and exciting films.

Liquid Lines Continued from Page 38, Sec. 2 days in April. But its presence is a pretty big surprise. The National Hurricane Center and the team at Colorado State University have become the two most revered oddsmakers for hurricanes each year. And while it’s not an exact science, they are pretty good at letting us know just how active a year can be. This year’s predictions are on the low end – about 10 named storms, four hurricanes and 40 days of named storm activity. Just to give you a reference, the average is about 12 storms, 6.5 hurricanes (do we get waves from half a ’cane?) and 60 days of activity. To a wave rider, it looks bleak. However, when it comes to New Jersey hurricane swells, it’s quality over quantity. We’re better off having five named storms that all march right up the Gulf Stream and maybe sit east of Long Island than a banner season with 19 hurricanes that hug the Yucatan or go meandering eastward toward Europe. But it is fair to say that a better number of storms will increase our chances. Scientists claim that this year’s switch from a La Niña pattern to an El Niño is mostly the cause. I recently traded a few e-mails with Dr. Jeff Masters of Wunderground.com, who explained: “An El Niño is characterized by a pool of warmer-than-average water in the Equatorial Pacific off the coast of Peru. The warm water heats the air above it, causing it to rise. When this rising air hits the stratosphere, it can’t rise any farther, since the stratosphere acts as a lid to keep all of our weather confi ned below it. The rising air is forced to spread laterally, creating strong upper-level winds that blow west to east over the Tropical Atlantic. These strong winds act to shear apart hurricanes.” Thanks, Doc. El Niño isn’t supposed to kick in until later this summer. For now, without those shearing winds, could we see more activity earlier in the season than usual? This brings us to the fact that right now, there’s a more powerful storm in the Pacific that might become a real headache for Mexico. But what can we expect for waves from the remains of Tropical Storm Alberto? Well, as is the case, it’s best to keep your expectations in your pants. Keep in mind that Alberto is not only a moderate storm growing weaker, but he’s a small storm with tropical force winds only covering a narrow piece of ocean. To give you perspective, Hurricane Irene was 700 miles wide. Tough to develop a significant fetch for a little guy like that. Unfortunately, Alberto won’t be coming close enough to the Mid-Atlantic for us to take advantage of offshore winds on the backside. That’s the real problem, and it’s been haunting us for weeks now. We’re stuck in this onshore flow, and while there are waves out there, there is nothing resembling a clean line. Thursday, May 17 was the last offshore session. There were a few bright moments this weekend, but overall, those east winds killed us. Saturday morning’s north winds

200 Plus Continued from Page 58, Sec. 2 West voted for war, and New York and New Jersey were divided. In Jersey, one senator, John Lambert, voted no and the other, John Condit, voted yes. The editor of the Register predicted war would unite the nation. “A little time and patience with prudence will bring about a perfect union, when the war really begins. The exertions of all are wanting that its duration may be short; let us not fret each other by general censures which no gentleman would particularly apply to his neighbor who happens to differ in sentiment on some minor points. By such means, in the course of a few months, our jarring opinions will settle down in peace, and every man be prepared to say, Long live America, the asylum of freedom – sovereign, independent and happy.” * Next Week: A nation divided. tpfcjf@comcast.net

were somewhat manageable down at the South End. I was wondering why the jetty I surfed was empty until I found out that Holyoke Avenue had some rippable lefts. And there were a few periods when the surf was fun despite relentless easterlies. The Eastern Surfi ng Association Central New Jersey District was able to hold its fi rst of the LBI Triple Crown events sponsored by Surf Unlimited on Saturday. Choppy three- to four-foot surf is better than no surf. It was a good showing for the locals. Holgate’s Brian Bowker won both the Junior Men’s and the Open Shortboard. Manahawkin’s Rick Huegi won the Senior Men’s, and Kali Emery slayed Open Women’s. In true ripper fashion, Barnegat’s Jesse Frack owned the Legends Shortboard. And styling his way to Open Longboard fi rst place was Ric "Aloha" Anastasi. In most cases, the actual wind speeds far surpassed the predicted wind speeds, making surfi ng and basically any kind of beach activity a bit of a drag. A few of us managed some small lefts down South on Monday. Unfortunately, heading down there is much more of a project now with the lights on. Expect to deal with southeast winds (lighter on Thursday) when the peak of the Alberto swell arrives. A perfect scenario it is not, but at least we haven’t had any flat days. I’ve also noticed some of the seasonal sandbars are back in shape. Ship Bottom could be very solid once we get some summertime morning glass. You may have read Juliet Kaszas-Hoch’s story in last week’s SandPaper about the new hydration stations that have been installed in Long Beach Township, with one on the way in Barnegat Light. Basically they provide a source of clean, cold, free water for your bottle thanks to an anonymous donation to Alliance for a Living Ocean. I know that ALO’s Kristin Neal did years of legwork to make this a reality. We all know that the best fluid for your body is simple, unadulterated water. But at some point, it became fashionable to buy water in single-use plastic containers. Ironically, South Jersey has some of the best tap water in the country thanks to the Pine Barren aquifers. Yet people would rather spend $3.50 to buy water from Fiji – while many Fijians are drinking bacteria-riddled mud. The bottle shift has created more and more petroleum products and is compounding what will be a giant toxic problem for humanity in the future. I personally can’t wait to fill my bottle at one of these hydration stations. It’s always bothered me when an event that has any kind of connection to the natural world – from a surf contest to an environmental fair – sells bottled water. I know the ALO Longboard Classic has offered free water from a jug for years. Even the Billabong Pipeline Masters has a FloWater machine that dispenses free water to spectators in lieu of plastic water bottles. (For those who insist that selling bottled water keeps the lights on, it could be set as a vending machine to charge per fill.) The hydration stations are located at the 68th Street beach and Bayview Park in Brant Beach and at the parking lot at the Wooden Jetty and one is coming to the municipal boat ramp in Barnegat Light. Hopefully, we’ll see a few more stations mid-Island and less ridiculous use of plastic. Farias Surf and Sport manager Jesse Westmacott wanted to make sure everyone knows that the Patagonia store across the street from the Farias Ship Bottom location will be open this weekend with new gear for summer. Also, Jetty has been running a spring blowout sale all week (runs until Friday) at the warehouse at 435 Route 539 in Tuckerton, if you want to pick up last year’s threads for cheap. Also, if you’re a surfer who has maybe thought about kiteboarding – I think it’s called “ki-curious” in the personals section – Island Surf & Sail will host a demo with North Kites this Sunday. There’s certainly no lack of wind lately. Call the shop for details at 609-494-5553. Behold, the unoffi cial start of summer. The weekend isn’t looking like one of those sun-shining classics, but I’m sure we can all have a little fun with our guido friends. After all, we’ve got a gym, beaches for tanning, and several laundromats. Let’s get this summer going. * joncoen@thesandpaper.net

THE SANDPAPER/WEDNESDAY, MAY 23, 2012

By MICHAEL MOLINARO True Story told the band’s tale to the people of Nardi’s Tavern in Haven Beach this past Friday night – both literally in an interview with The SandPaper, and musically through the high-tempo show that followed. It is the story of a longtime band of friends from Lyndhurst fighting to live out the dream of making music for a living along a path that has led to Long Beach Island for what is their fourth year playing here. Guitarist Victor Giordiano, lead singer Nick LaMonica and founding member turned current manager Rick Davis converted A True Story to a cover band in 2003 following a suggestion made by a club owner in East Rutherford after a show. Having been an original band in the heavier “screamo” vein that was leading hardcore-influenced alternative bands such as Taking Back Sunday and Brand New to some mainstream success, the band saw its scene dying and regarded becoming a cover band as the chance to keep the style of music they love alive. “We caught the tail end of it, and people go into it now for the wrong reasons these days,” said drummer Tommy Gentile, who just joined the band this year alongside bassist Steve Padelski, who was replaced for the night by Mark Delcalzo. The journey as an original band led to A True Story’s penchant to play more covers from heavy alternative or punk-influenced bands than most, and to allow that influence to transform covers from pop, R&B, rap and other genres into something uniquely its own. “To tell you the truth,” said Giordiano, “we kind of feel like we were one of the fi rst ones to do that. We started to do things like a Lady

HOME BASE: Vineland STYLE: Covers of good-time rock ’n’ roll, with the heart and soul of an original band. LINEUP: Jeff Giuliani, lead vocals, guitar and keys; Rich Franchetta, drums, percussion, turntables; Steve Solof, bass and vocals; Matt Donato, guitar. SOUND BYTE: A concert-quality sound system and light show enhance the band’s already-huge sound to create a memorable experience. TWO’S TAKE: At an eleven eleven show, it’s hard to tell who’s having a better time – the crowd or the band.

Ryan Morrill

AN HONEST LIVING: (From left) Guitarist Matt Canal, drummer Tommy Gentile, front man Nick LaMonica, ﬁll-in bass player Mark Delcalzo and guitarist Victor Giordiano kept the energy up for the Friday-night crowd. The band’s aim is to turn cover into something truly unique.

Set List Snippet Fun – “We Are Young” Taking Back Sunday – “Cute Without the ‘E’ (Cut From the Team)” M.I.A. – “Paper Planes” Red Hot Chili Peppers – “Give It Away” Harvey Danger – “Flagpole Sitta” SR-71 – “Right Now” The Wanted – “Glad You Came” Rage Against the Machine – “Bulls on Parade” Rhianna – “We Found Love” American Hi-Fi – “Flavor of the Week” Lady Gaga – “Bad Romance” Sum 41 – “Fat Lip” Gaga three-song medley followed by Taking Back Sunday, and bands would come up to us saying, ‘Whoa, I can’t believe you guys can get away with playing that.’” Davis called the band one of the strongest bands in Monte Entertainment, a cover band agency headed up by Rob Monte – the former lead singer of Dog Voices and a beloved veteran of the Jersey Shore cover-band scene. A True Story was the fi rst Monte Entertainment band to hit the LBI scene, playing at Nardi’s as well as the Sea Shell Club in Beach Haven the past three summers. It was from one of those Sea Shell shows that the band shared one of its fondest stories of playing LBI. “We were playing ‘Surf Night’ at the Sea Shell, and two half-naked girls dressed in just Jetty stickers – one had a tattoo of an anchor that said L.B.I. on her butt – were all over him,” Giordiano said of LaMonica. At least the rest of the band got free T-shirts from Jetty, which sponsored the event. LaMonica appears to have accepted his proclivity for having women all over him, evident as early as the band’s third song at Nardi’s – “Sugar, We’re Goin Down” by Fall Out Boy – during which Brooke Srichman, 25, of New York City was fighting for her right to share the microphone with LaMonica. After the song’s conclusion, Srichman persisted, and LaMonica attempted an escape onto the dance floor to encourage the crowd in its rocking out, laughing off Srichman, who continued to hound him until security took her away. “I need to be the star,” Srichman later conceded. “They rocked the house!” she added – her favorite song being Green Day’s “Burn Out,” the lesser-known but high-energy opening track from the band’s breakthrough album, Dookie. The band maintains what it described as a raw, garage-band sound of two guitars with very few effects added. It takes pride in having no keys, synths or digital sampling that many cover bands have adopted in an attempt to re-create the pop music of today’s hit radio stations. Making up the other half of the band’s dual guitar onslaught was passionate guitarist Matt Canal, who was pretty much a roaring river of stage presence and integrity-confi rming rock sweat, which poured from his pores only to be captured by an abundance of long hair and chin moss as he picked up lead singing duties on songs such as “First Date” by Blink 182. For Canal, playing music is all about “being Continued on Page 46, Sec. 2

a rock star, the old rock star dream and the ageold rock show – hair blowing in the wind,” he said, referencing the flamboyant rock stars of the 1980s he was influenced by as a child born in that decade. He describes A True Story as an ’80s cover band playing in the 2000s. The dreadlocked Giordiano is more the consummate professional, playing more to master his craft of guitar playing than anything else. “I always wanted to play a solo like somebody else played a solo. That was cool to me. I always wanted to figure out how music goes. I took a couple classes and realized it’s just a big circle, and you just remember some patterns.” Delcalzo’s bass lines met without fault

throughout the night and stood out particularly on songs such as The Red Hot Chili Peppers’ “Give it Away,” during which a man known simply as “Doc,” who heads up Rock Wreckognition – a free publicity endeavor for rock bands – rushed the stage and gave Delcalzo a thumbs up before commenting, “The bass line they run has been engineered properly to run the dance floor.” “Music is fulfilling,” Delcalzo said. “I’ve just loved everything about it ever since I was a kid getting my fi rst bass guitar and never putting it down.” A True Story gets its moniker from a moment when the band was watching the tube and a trailer for the remake of “Texas Chainsaw Massacre” came on, during which the narrator said the film was “based on a true story.” “It fits because it is a true story,” Gentile said of his band’s name. “We’ve been best friends since we knew what friends meant.” For Gentile, that enduring friendship con-

tinues to be the main reason he ever picked up two drumsticks. “I knew it was going to be the outlet that would always keep me with my friends after we graduate,” he said. “We would all go off to different schools but all converge back at the garage, and that would just be a really cool way to stay in touch with each other. I wound up growing to love it, and then you just strive to be better.” The band sacrifices playing some of the most universally loved and overplayed cover songs of all time to develop a target audience of 20- to 30-year-olds who both know and sing back every word, or at least experience the nostalgia associated with the connection any might have with the often-emotional song catalog. Those moments are why LaMonica makes music. “Being a part of something that makes people think or someone’s emotions – I used to write constantly – and people sing your songs back … yeah, it’s great.” “The music that we try to pick has some kind of emotional attachment to a lot of people that music that other bands cover might not,” Giordiano said. “They just play songs to get rowdy and have a good time, but a lot what we do is emotional.” “So many people forgot that they used to listen to these bands, and then they hear a riff start, and you can just see that it takes them back in time and the surprise in their faces,” Canal said. “They should pay us for getting people to re-listen to their music,” Giordiano joked. According to the band, Monte Entertainment is fi nding success in promoting cover bands that have their own niche like A True Story, referencing agency mates The Replicants that focus on 90’s rock as an example. Monte “was very experienced in the cover world,” said LaMonica. “He came out and told us straight up – no lies – he just told us how it was and what we had to do, and we did it. He’s a very trustworthy guy.” With Monte’s advice, the band is enjoying fi nding places like Nardi’s to play and the freedom to continue playing what they love. “There will be a lot of places that tell you, ‘Play Bon Jovi, play Journey’ – that type of thing,” Giordiano said. “But you stick to your guns. There’s defi nitely room for a cover band for this type of thing.” Much of the Nardi’s crowd seemed to think so. Matt Rosenberg, 23, of Princeton had heard A True Story previously at Bar A in Belmar and was most impressed with the way the band covered well-known pop hits from Cee Lo Green’s “F**k You” to Rhianna’s “We Found Love.” “They’re really good. I enjoyed them; they’re fun,” said Rosenberg. “They play a lot of modern stuff that’s on the radio, which is cool because everyone can relate to it and dance to it and sing to it. I thought the band played to the crowd.” The Emmy Award-winning Lynn Doyle, 55, of Haven Beach – host of the Comcast Network’s “It’s Your Call” – was on hand at Nardi’s and gave her take on the band. “They just had a really infectious beat and rhythm,” Doyle said. “They played a lot of the more-popular songs we all know, and they put their own twist on it.” A True Story returns to Nardi’s July 13 and also makes an appearance at the Sea Shell on Aug. 18.

By ASHLEY TEDESCO strong fashion sense often means looking for wardrobe selections in a wide variety of places. Supplementing the tried-andtrue Long Beach Island boutiques this year are two new arrivals on the fashion scene: School of Vintage and House of Consignment, two shops bringing previously-worn and vintage threads to the center of the Island. Though consignment stores and those selling secondhand clothing are certainly not new to the area, both School of Vintage and House of Consignment – and their dynamic duo ownership – aim to individually put a slightly different spin on the traditional gently worn clothing business. Color Me Vintage A college microbiology class might seem like an unlikely place for a fashion business to bud, but that’s just what happened when Erin Buterick and Jeannine Errico met while science majors at Stockton College. With a shared love for vintage clothing and accessories, the two began sharing dreams of opening a vintage boutique together. Half a dozen years later, that dream has fi nally become a reality. School of Vintage, aptly named based on where the women first bonded, opened its doors on April 28 in Surf City, after a year Continued on Page 50, Sec. 2

By ASHLEY TEDESCO arely does a new arcade game come along that becomes a true sensation, but one Belgium-based company has created one that has people in arcades across the United States lining up for a chance to play. The Wizard of Oz machine, a creation of Elaut, puts a new spin on the classic coin-pusher machine. The hexagon-shaped machine, which seats six players for simultaneous play, gives players the chance to drop small silver tokens on the pusher devices in an effort to knock both large plastic tokens and rectangular cards off the edges of the machine. Unlike other coin pushers, the small tokens that fill the machine don’t actually count for anything (unless one accidentally comes out); they only serve to push the big point-makers closer to the edge. The tokens and cards are dropped into each play area at seemingly random intervals. When they finally make it over the edge and into the dispenser, tokens are valued at 50 and 150 points each, while cards are worth 400. The fun, however, doesn’t stop there: though cards are worth 400 points each, each card features a different Wizard Photographs by Ryan Morrill of Oz character, and a collection of EMERALD CITY: Ryan Tomburo (top) of Ship Bottom all seven is worth 30,000 points.

With a storefront full of everything vintage – from dresses to rotary phones – the co-owners say they spend tons of time scouring every possible place for vintage clothing, accessories, housewares and furniture, from estate sales, thrift stores and flea markets. They’ve even found some of the vintage furniture gracing the walls of their shop in the trash. Getting merchandise in tip-top shape to be sold in their shop can be a lot of work. Of course, everything needs to be washed, but almost everything needs a little extra TLC, too. Sometimes, that means mending a loose hem. Other times, Buterick says she’s found herself learning to rewire decades-old telephones to make them ring like new. “Everything we get in, we do work on. … We’re constantly working on stuff,” says Errico. Most of the inventory in the new shop comes from the 1950s and 1960s, but Buterick says they’ve included items dating as far back as the 1920s and as recent as the 1980s. “It depends on what we find,” says Buterick. Though Errico, who lives in Tuckerton, and Buterick, who lives in Forked River, do most of the inventory cultivation themselves, they also take consignment products on a 60/40 split, or buyouts from people who have a large quantity of clothing or other vintage products that they’d like to sell. No matter where items come from, the bottom line is that products live up to a certain standard: deep cleaned, dry cleaned, mended and steamed for men’s and women’s clothing, scrubbed down, touched up and sometimes refinished when it comes to furniture and housewares. As for a particular style, Errico says everyone’s idea of vintage is a little different. “Our styles are very different,” says Buterick. “But they work together nicely.” “We want to cultivate a very warm environment. We want people to come in and feel comfortable. We want people to feel overwhelmed,” says Errico. “We want people to spend time going through every single thing, because that’s how we do it. We go through so much stuff before we find the items (for the shop), so we want people to do the same thing. We like people to find something new.” Errico and Buterick are hosting a grand opening celebration on May 26, serving refreshments and sweets and giving away a gift certificate to the store. They say they are looking forward to a

great opportunity to meet people and introduce them to the shop. “Everybody that comes in has a story,” says Errico. “Hearing their stories, it’s an added benefit.” Visit School of Vintage at 1509 Long Beach Blvd. in Surf City or online at schoolofvintage. com. Consigning Designer Duds From upstate New York antique shops to Long Beach Island couture, Debbie Hekl and Debra LoPiccolo have unveiled the House of Consignment, which opened May 5 in the building that once housed Lynn Photo in Ship Bottom. When both relocated from New York to Beach Haven West, closing down their antique shops up north, they joined forces to take on a new project, this time with fashion. The “resale couture” storefront is loaded with everything from swimsuits to evening gowns, all gently worn and looking for a new home in the closet of a different wearer. The boutique carries big designer names, including Gucci, Chanel, Lilly Pulitzer, Tommy Bahama and Louis Vuitton, but also stocks more mainstream clothing companies, including Max Studio, Ann Taylor and Chico’s. “We want to really make everyone happy; we don’t want it to be all high-end,” says LoPiccolo. “We just want it to look nice, and we want people to be happy when they come in. There’s things for $10, there’s things for $5, and there’s things for $100.” The shop carries clothing and accessories exclusively, but caters to men, women and children of all ages, and, LoPiccolo says, all styles. “We're trying to reach everyone,” she says. The idea to open the shop came after both owners relocated to the area and thought local shopping could use a supplement to the Island boutiques. “I think it's a nice alternative for people,” says LoPiccolo. “There's always somebody looking for a bargain.” Both LoPiccolo and Hekl have long shared a love for designer and vintage clothing, with Hekl moonlighting in restoring antique and vintage Louis Vuitton trunks. With the state of the economy giving more people more pause in their shopping, LoPiccolo says consignment shops – particularly those offering designer duds at a quarter of the price – seem even more appealing. "If they save money on their clothes, they can put that money aside and buy themselves something that they really want," she says. For those more interested in reverse shopping, or selling their wardrobe excess, LoPiccolo says the shop is taking new consigners, who are encouraged to make an appointment before or after regular business hours. Merchandise is kept in the store for 90 days, with 50 percent of each sale going to the consigner at the end of each month. The store, which is currently open Thursday through Sunday from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m., will be open seven days a week in season for shoppers and consigners alike. * ashleytedesco@thesandpaper.net

Continued from Page 49, Sec. 2 -cade in Seaside Heights purchased four of the 10 American models last season, and is the one that turned Fantasy Island on to getting a machine of its own. Since their release, the machines, which are built to order, have been so popular that they’ve had to be imported from Belgium just to keep up with the demand, according to an online review by the Birmingham Vending Co. Fantasy Island gets new machines each season, and did upgrade to a new Wheel of Fortune machine and add two new ball drop games called Monster Drop. The biggest additions, though, remain the two new Wizard of Oz machines. “We made a big investment in those Oz (machines),” said Millar. Each unit costs roughly $60,000, according to various distributor sources online. That price doesn’t include the cost of tokens and cards, which are all sold separately. But don’t get any ideas; all cards are marked so they can’t be traded in anywhere other than their home arcade, and Fantasy Island has just made the transition over to its own tokens, complete with the Fantasy Island logo. What more can be said? “Everybody needs to come check it out for themselves,” said Millar.✧ ashleytedesco@thesandpaper.net

THE SANDPAPER/WEDNESDAY, MAY 23, 2012

Art and Craft Bound By Common Threads By VICTORIA LASSONDE he current gallery exhibit at the Long Beach Island Foundation of the Arts and Sciences in Loveladies, “In Stitches: Contemporary Fiber Art,” is a thoughtprovoking exploration of the ways, myriad and multifarious, in which human lives are touched, in the most literal sense, by fiber. About half of the 15 exhibiting artists are expected to attend the gallery reception this Sunday, May 27, from 5 to 7 p.m., where guests may view and discuss the work and consider the questions it raises. Philadelphia’s famed yarn-bomber, Jessie Hemmons, will contribute two special pieces for the reception. The LBIF has several reasons to be excited about the latest exhibit. For one, “In Stitches” marks Gallery Manager Alison Craft’s first time conceptualizing, curating and Photographs by Ryan Morrill installing a show in its entirety. Craft, who grew up spending summers in GET IN TOUCH: (Clockwise from above) No two of Ship Bottom, studied weaving and Jennifer Strunge’s ‘cotton monsters’ are alike. Karen embroidery at Tyler School of Art Guancione’s ‘Market Bags’ dominate the space. Maggy in Philadelphia. Second, the subject Razycki-Hiltner reinterprets child’s play in ‘Pink Cloud.’ matter is of special interest to LBIF Executive Director Chris Seiz, who holds a BFA in fibers from the Maryland Institute College of Art in Baltimore. “In Stitches” represents a wide range of processes, he explained, including those that both honor and challenge conventions. Examples of traditional basketry, quilting and embroidery pay homage to the work’s historical context, even evoke nostalgia, and yet – given the use of unexpected materials such as chicken bones, plastic bags and dollar bills, and surprising imagery ranging from bears (see Alyse Bernstein’s “8 Classifications of Bear and Ursa Minor”) to eyebrow-raising schoolyard behavior – “this sure isn’t Grandma’s quilting,” Seiz quipped. “The exhibition is very accessible, because the processes of construction are quite clear, while the works are able to take on an exciting life of their own,” Seiz said. “‘In Stitches’ invites viewers to take a closer look at techniques and processes that may be familiar but present ideas with a thought-provoking richness that can only be called fiber art.” Until recently, Craft said she had observed, even worried, that fiber art was being unfairly boxed and marginalized. But the revival of the do-it-yourself movement and the popularity of Etsy (an online marketplace for independent artists, artisans and shop keepers) has brought lations onsite, to accommodate the dimensions of a given space. “the art of craft” back in vogue. She typically installs her work in large “I figured this was a perfect time to spotlight how beautiful craft can be, that it can be fresh spaces, letting them cascade in ways that inand new,” she said. It’s not all macramé and nov- teract with the viewer, according to Craft. She elties. Recycled and alternative materials figure collects bags from all over the world and might prominently – especially in Karen Guancione’s juxtapose a bag from Target with one from a “Bolsas de Mandado” (or “Market Bags”), store in Egypt. Her work invokes themes of an ongoing series, involving recycled plastic consumerism, excess and wastefulness, the bags, maybe 1,000 or more, layered in strips, global market and travel. Apart from Guancione’s striking and dymachine-sewn and hung from the ceiling. The large installation anchors the show and puts the namic centerpiece, the show is set up to ease the viewer into the work, starting with the space in the proper perspective.” Guancione’s installation was a two-day oldest and most comforting traditions (baskets, process during which she gave direction from quilts). It graduates toward some of the morethe floor as a helper on a ladder positioned the interpretive work, including soft sculpture and banners on support beams to her liking. She had fabric and printmaking, and farther back, the brought as many bags as she could transport most experimental pieces, pronounced deparin her car, Craft said. Because the panels are tures from the norm. “I think a huge conversation in fiber is the adjustable and changeable, Guancione can bring as many or as few as needed to build her instal- appearance of ‘hand,’ whether you want that or

not,” Craft said. To illustrate, Alyse Bernstein’s quilt, “2005-06 Atlantic Hurricanes,” in which hand-stitched weather systems are so loose and fluid they look almost like brush strokes, is positioned near Nick DeFord’s embroideries on paper and books, executed with such control and precision that it’s hard to distinguish between hand and machine. In some of the more understated pieces – David Curcio’s framed mixed media on Japanese paper; Jilli Blackwood’s “The Beach,” torn silk that looks as soft as feathers – the manual effort is plain to see and easy to appreciate. Fiber Art Or Fiber Craft? In the art community, a discussion of “fiber as crossover genre” sheds light on what Seiz described as “a very difficult and subjective standard.” Is it art or craft? Or both? “For thousands of years, fibers have been among the materials closest to humans in their

everyday lives; from the practical socks on your feet, to the life-saving seatbelt strap, few people can think of a world without fibers as a practical interaction.” Despite its long history, fiber as an accepted and collected artistic medium is a newer development. Craft suggested it’s the combination of concept and craftsmanship that elevates a hobby to an art form. “Most fiber artists would consider themselves artists first, attempting to convey a message, emotion or deeper meaning with the artwork,” Seiz said. “Fibers are simply their medium. Just as the paint and the canvas are the method to convey the painter’s idea, the thread, string, paper, wire, reed, whatever, is a tool for the fiber artist to share a story, express an emotion, or interact with the viewer. … The reputation of fibers as a craft medium creates a difficulty in public acceptance of the work as ‘fine art,’ but ‘In Stitches’ attempts to bring

It would make me so happy. @EricMSales: Long Beach Island, NJ needs a @Starbucks; the closest one is in Manahawkin in a @Target. #LetsPrayFor2013 @Rachaelll_xx: went to Long Beach Island today. got a new bikini. officially ready for summer. @RWPauloski: Little Egg Harbor...where I am by FAR the most attractive person at the bar #becauseIhaveallmyteeth @imkevinbyrne: Exit 63 is no longer exit 63? No problem. I'll drive there and duct tape it. @JaniBear: Long Beach Island, New Jersey???? Didnt know it existed ... —A.T. many of these ideas together to express fiber arts as more than a technical skill or craft – rather, an art form that merits further investigation and contemplation by the viewer.” Like many others who enjoy fiber-based activities, Craft finds the repetition soothing, even therapeutic. “It gives me time to space out, but at the same time I’m making pieces that I’m proud of,” she said. She also enjoys the freedom to be able to pick up or set aside a project at any time. The exhibition’s main focus and unifying theme are, naturally (though not always obviously), stitches. Some are open to interpretation, as in Pamela Becker’s basket making, where one could argue every individual loop of the coils is considered a stitch. Catherine LeCleire’s bookmaking is another. Her art books have a political bent, and both evoke drama with their extreme size, one very large (a multifaceted image of a house that folds up to store in a house-shaped box) and one very small (a tiny scroll that beckons to the viewer to come in close). Jennifer Strunge’s wildly imaginative plush “cotton monsters” represent soft sculpture. Her beautifully crafted creatures – so utterly huggable, though some will gladly gobble up your hand, if you let them – speak to the viewer’s childlike instinct to play. Yet, in every instance, stitches hold it all together. Fiber art as a genre can become a sort of catchall for other periphery art forms and materials. Along the same lines, the fruits of the fiber artist’s labors can also be tough to categorize. Book making is one example where the printmaker and the bookbinder (a fiber art) might both lay claim to the object. Exhibit Installation Is an Art of Its Own The show’s blend of local and international flavor derives from the materials used in the works as well as from the participating artists themselves, coming from Philadelphia, Montreal, Scotland, Montana, Massachusetts. In the instances where the artists could not come in person, they sent their works with instructions for Craft to install, which Craft enjoyed for the opportunity to become part of the work, too. “At some point, there are two authors to it,” she said. Such was the case with Maggy Rozycki Hiltner, who uses embroidery and found textiles to tell a story in a sprawling wall assembly called “Pink Cloud.” Such was also the case with Libbie Soffer, whose only guidance to Craft in installing “Searching for the Right Language,” which Continued on Page 54, Sec. 2

Joy Saville might be considered a more traditional quilter, but not in a mainstream kind of way. Her patterns call to mind a prism or kaleidoscope; her colors are rich, “almost garish,” Craft offered, her angular pieces precise. Her works are named for natural settings – “Evening Poppies,” “Spring Moss,” “Halfway,” “Brook Morning.” Canadian Kelly Thompson’s jacquard weaving, with images that reference transportation and travel, is computerized, enabling far greater detail.

Continued from Page 64, Sec. 2 New Egypt, produced the event in conjunction with the wineries. The company handles logistics, management and planning for about 18 events and concerts a year, many of which are wine-festival related. On May 1, the state Legislature overturned an old law to allow N.J. wineries to ship their wine directly to customers in state and out of state. The ability to ship wine is giving winery sales a boost, but the kinks are still being worked out in relation to preventing underage purchases. It may be decided that wineries must ship to a nearby distributor of the customer, who would then pick up the wine in person for identity and age veriďŹ cation. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The N.J. wine industry is the fastest growing agricultural industry in the state of New Jersey, and currently we stand at about 40 active and open commercial wineries in the state,â&#x20AC;? said Bullock. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re anticipating that number could double within the next 10 years. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If you take a look at N.J. agriculture â&#x20AC;&#x201C; the soil and the climate â&#x20AC;&#x201C; itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s almost an identical match to what you ďŹ nd in France and other parts of Europe. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s more towards the southern part of our state. What that means for us is that our wines are winning more awards now â&#x20AC;&#x201C; amazing national awards and international awards. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re the ďŹ fth largest wine-producing state in the country,â&#x20AC;? Bullock said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We also have more wine drinkers per capita in our state than any other state. â&#x20AC;&#x153;So when you combine the soil, the climate, the growing opportunities and what we can do with grapes, and you have a lucrative wine consumer climate, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a no-brainer.â&#x20AC;? Also a no-brainer was having a wine festival in Beach Haven, and Bullock thanked the Southern Ocean County Chamber of Commerce and the town for their support. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We want people to come next year so we can just keep growing it and getting bigger,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x153;§ michaelmolinaro@thesandpaper.net

hroughout the winter and spring of 1812, the terms “impressment” and “free trade” were being touted in the halls of Congress as the U.S. government began to think seriously about war. The government’s actions during this time have for years raised questions. During this time, every attempt to improve and enlarge the U.S. Navy was defeated in Congress. While the seizing of British Canada and Spanish Florida were never discussed, the Army was put on a war footing. Later, 60-year-old William Hall, a veteran of the American Revolution wrote, “Being at Washington in February 1812, and being at that time governor of the Territory of Michigan, and accounts having been received from that section of the country, that the Indians were becoming hostile to the defenceless inhabitants of that exposed frontier, it was natural for me to feel a solicitude for their safety. I urged on the officers of the administration, the expediency of providing a force for their protection. At this time, in consequence of the differences which existed between our government and Great Britain, Congress had thought it expedient to augment the army, and was taking measures for the purpose.” From these discussions, a plan was devised. “The governor of the state of Ohio was called on by the president of the United States, to detach 1200 militia, and prepare them for actual service. These militias were to be joined by the 4th U.S. Regiment, then at Post St. Vincennes. “After these arrangements were made, the Secretary of War informed me, that it was the desire of the President, that I should accept the appointment of a Brigadier General, in the army, and take the command of these forces, and march them to Detroit, the place of their destination.” This would place a large U.S. force within striking distance of British Canada. Meanwhile, other plans were being made. On March 30, the 59-year-old governor of New Jersey, Joseph Bloomfield, a hero of the Revolution, wrote to the secretary of war. “I have the honor to acknowledge reception of your communication of the 28th and tender my acceptance of the appointment of a Brigadier General in the army of the United States. “It is impossible for me to add to the high respect and esteem with which I am Sincerely, Your Friend, and most obedient servant, Joseph Bloomfield.” On April 10, President James Madison signed into law, “Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America, in Congress assembled, That the President of the United States be, and he is hereby authorized to require of the Executives of the several states and territories, to take effectual measure to organize, arm, and equip, according to law, and hold in readiness to march at a moment’s warning, their respective proportions of one hundred thousand militia, officers included, to be apportioned by the president of the United States, from the latest militia returns in the department of war; and, in cases where such returns have not been made, by such other data as he shall judge equitable.” Gov. Bloomfield wasted little time. Five thousand New Jersey militia troops were called up on April 25 to be ready to march to New York. “The Commander-in-Chief of New Jersey orders, that the Commandants of the several brigades detach the officers and men conformably to the foregoing requisition, from the corps under their respective commands, according to the following detail: “The officers and men must be armed and furnished with blankets and knapsacks, and ready to march whenever called upon. “By prompt obedience to this requisition, and by conduct and bravery in the field, should there be occasion to take it, the militia of New Jersey will sustain the character they acquired during the Revolutionary War, while they assert the rights of our insulted country, maintain the independence of the nation, and support the Government of their choice.”

The antiwar faction in Congress led by 38-year-old John Randolph of Virginia was beginning to be steamrolled. The Niles Register, a Baltimore newspaper, reported, “Friday, May 29 … Mr. Randolph, after stating that he had a motion to make, commenced a speech involving generally the present state of our relations with France and Great Britain, When he had been speaking about an hour and an half, a question of order arose, and it was decided by the speaker that the gentleman ought, previous to debating so much at large, to submit his motion to the house. “After some desultory debate and decisions on points of order, Mr. Randolph submitted the following proposition: That under present circumstances, it is inexpedient to resort to a war with Great Britain,” But the pieces were falling into place. According to the June 6 Register, “The detachment of militia, ordered by the president of the United States into actual service, from the state of Ohio, (a wilderness 25 years ago) consisting of 1200 men, cavalry, riflemen and infantry, are already in the field, completely equipped! A body of as brave, gallant and hardy young men as ever was assembled. This detachment is composed entirely of volunteers; their number was made up in a few days. With the exception of the superior officers, they are principally men in the very prime of life; able and capable of doing anything – that men can do – to avenge their country. At this date they are, probably, encamped at Detroit. They were to be joined by the 4th United States regiment, and other regular troops about to descend the Ohio from Pittsburg.” On June 1, 1812, President Madison sent his war message to Congress. “British cruisers have been in the continued practice of violating the American flag on the great highway of nations, and of seizing and carrying off persons sailing under it, not in the exercise of a belligerent right founded on the law of nations against an enemy, but of a municipal (internal) prerogative over British subjects. British jurisdiction is thus extended to neutral vessels. … “The practice … is so far from affecting British subjects alone that, under the pretext of searching for these, thousands of American citizens, under the safeguard of public law and of their national flag, have been torn from their country and from everything dear to them; have been dragged on board ships of war of a foreign nation and exposed, under the severities of their discipline, to be exiled to the most distant and deadly climes, to risk their lives in the battles of their oppressors, and to be the melancholy instruments of taking away those of their own brethren.” This was not to be a war of conquest; this was to be one of honor and commerce. “Not content with these occasional expedients for laying waste our neutral trade, the Cabinet of Britain resorted at length to the sweeping system of blockages, under the name of orders in Council, which has been molded and managed as might best suit its political views, its commercial jealousies, or the avidity of British cruisers. … “It has become, indeed, sufficiently certain that the commerce of the United States is to be sacrificed, not as interfering with the belligerent rights of Great Britain; not as supplying the wants of her enemies, which she herself supplies; but as interfering with the monopoly which she covets for her own commerce and navigation.” The declaration of war quickly passed the House of Representatives, 79 to 249, on June 4 but was hung up in the Senate until June 17. Antiwar senators tried unsuccessfully to limit the war to naval fighting only. The final vote was taken on June 17. It was the closest war vote in the country’s history: 19 to 13. The voting pattern in the Senate was interesting: Most of New England, the shipping center of the country, voted no; the South and Continued on Page 42, Sec. 2

STRIKE A POSE: Six models from throughout the Jersey Shore pose on an old Kulas boat at a residence in West Creek as the Foxx Code Magazine crew tries to capture the perfect still.

Models and Crew Invade Local Residence

Foxx Code Photo Shoot On Island and Mainland M

By MICHAEL MOLINARO odels, photographer and crew from Foxx Code Magazine hunted their way through the streets of Beach Haven and West Creek in search of perfect pictures on May 16. The New York City-based quarterly that highlights pop culture’s hippest places took six locally selected models through the LBI and mainland towns as part of an upcoming 14- to 18-page pictorial called “Jersey Juice: Don’t Stop Believing.” Their journey took them from the whale mural along the wall of Hand’s in North Beach Haven to the Marlin in Beach Haven, the Centre Street pavilion, under the Beach Haven water tower, the beach at Pearl Street, and eventually to a local residence in West Creek, then the docks of Antoinetta’s Restaurant just up the road at sunset. The crew went for a second shoot at architect Stephen Midouhas’ oceanfront house in Harvey Cedars later in the week, as well as the Maris Stella Retreat and Conference Center there. The photos will be combined with ﬁsheye lens surf photography taken by Zach Diamond among Long Beach Island waves. “Jersey Juice” is a popular term in the surf community concerning waves, explained Foxx Code President Carl Van Nevius III. The “Don’t Stop Believing” portion of the piece’s title was chosen less for being one of the most popular Jersey Shore cover band selections of all time and more to express what Nevius described as an inborn strength and

will within young people who come out of the Garden State. “It’s really about the power, and the energy, and the persistence of Jersey kids,” said Nevius, who grew up in Beach Haven, spent 28 years in New York City, and now maintains a second residence in Beach Haven West. “You can’t stop them if you tried. They’re just climbing over the wall no matter what. Of course, you have your slackers, too, but there’s something about this area – you go to Texas or Florida or other states, and you have people laying around waiting for something to happen. Jersey kids have that golden energy.” The LBI area – like other locations featured in Foxx Code – is also just a hip place, Nevius explained. “You have people in Harvey Cedars driving Caddies with million-dollar homes; there’s this attitude to it. Long Beach Island has really become the Hamptons of the Jersey Shore. It’s probably one of your top ﬁve destinations of pristine beach communities on the East Coast. It’s family friendly, but there’s a beautifulness about it.” Furthermore, Nevius wanted to fashion a reﬂection of the Jersey Shore that evolves the image that has been created by the popular MTV show of that name. The long day began early for models and crew, beginning at Aqua Bleu Salon in Ship Bottom, where the models had hair and makeup done by owner Jillian Sierocki. She then followed the crew around throughout the day for touchups. Continued on Page 60, Sec. 2

Foxx Code Models Take Beach Haven Continued from Page 59 , Sec. 2 Besides hair, makeup and clothing, Nevius wanted everything to authentically come from the Jersey Shore, including the six models who participated. Kimberly Eachus of Barnegat was modeling for the ﬁrst time. She signed on after being approached where she works at Antoinetta’s, a restaurant that was featured previously in the magazine. Rachel Simons of Manahawkin ended up on the shoot after the Foxx Code crew asked her mother about prospective models while they were buying clothes at Surf Unlimited in Ship Bottom that would be used for the shoot. Kelsey Meredith of Egg Harbor Township found out about the gig during a prom dress photo shoot at the Renault Winery. She was chosen to be one of Foxx Code’s six models from among about ﬁve other candidates who were at that shoot. Samantha Phonnalyla and India Villanueva, both of Galloway Township, are experienced models who heard about the Foxx Code piece through friends and family. They ultimately won their place through Ava Holly, whose casting agency, 4 A Star out of Galloway, often supplies Foxx Code with models for any projects near Atlantic City. Eden Stewart of Toms River heard about the shoot through her friend Matt Tucker, 28, of Bayville, who was picked to be the man behind the camera after responding to an ad online. “I was all about it,” said Tucker. “It’s cool that he’s really bringing recognition to this area; it’s more of a city project. There’s really not enough of an art scene around here. Anything to get out there and get the local Jersey art scene alive is a good thing.” You can imagine the surprise of Tony “Speedy” Gonzalez – a 76-year old Keystone Light-drinking retiree in West Creek – when six models and the Foxx Code photo team showed up for the second-to-last shoot location of the day. Gonzalez’s son Mario, who stores his two dilapidated Kulas “1940s Gilligan’s Island” style mahogany boats in his father’s front yard, offered them to Nevius about a year ago for use with the Foxx Code shoot.

‘Upstairs’ Ready to Reopen At Dutchman’s This Friday

eginning this weekend, the Island will have a new venue for live entertainment in the newly renovated second floor above the Dutchman’s Brauhaus, aptly named The Upstairs. Owners and brothers David, Bob, Bill and Rick Schmid hope the Upstairs will become a destination for blues fans, with a “Blues and Tapas” series on Monday nights starting June 25. Additionally, weekend nights will offer high-energy rock and roll, with a new corner stage (built by Rick and Bob); a newly laid dance floor; and a complete sound system professionally engineered by in-house sound man Brian Eastburn. With the new setup, “none of the bands have to bring anything in,” David Schmid explained. “They carry their guitar in and plug in.” Raderberger Pils, from Dresden, Germany, in the outdoor beer garden completes the authentic brauhaus experience. The room is reopening this weekend after a six-year hiatus with a three-band lineup to kick off the season. With all four brothers on board, “we have the ability and energies to do our entertainment again upstairs,” Rick said. The first band to christen the stage will be Contraband on Friday night, a Jersey Shore band specializing in contemporary and classic rock, funk and soul. On Contraband’s set list, The Beatles, Rick James and Barry White are in good company with Jason Mraz, Outkast and Michael Buble. Saturday, beloved local trio Face Down – guitarist John Plumley, bassist Tony Sailer and guitarist Dave Gardner – will fill the room with three-part harmonies and classic and southern rock favorites. On Sunday, The Upstairs welcomes The Mulch Brothers, Mark and Nick, an original country rock duo all the way from Tennessee. Also on Sunday, the Dutchman’s will host a Sea Ray boat show in the cove, sponsored by Marine Max, complete with live, in-water

“I thought they were a little nuts,” Gonzalez said concerning ﬁrst being approached by Nevius. “I have no idea why he wants to do this, but it’s entertaining. I ﬁgure it’s gotta be good.” “We’re going to get you up there, but the boat’s old, so you have to step gracefully in certain areas,” Nevius said, directing the models who made their way to the ship’s bow for the shoot and back down without incident.

craft demonstrations. Throughout the summer, special events and celebrations will serve to make the season memorable; a “feelgood” vibe is the goal for Sunday afternoons. Helping to make the Monday night blues series a big draw is one heavy-hitting harmonica player and blues man, the Grammy-nominated and newly inducted Blues Hall of Famer Rob Paparozzi, onetime front man of the group Blood, Sweat and Tears. Last Friday night, Paparozzi paid a visit to The Upstairs to get a feel for the place, scope the layout and take the old, upright Stuyvesant for a test drive. Going forward, the blues focus will also bring harmonica player Mikey Junior and the Stone Cold Photographs by Jack Reynolds Blues, guitarist-singer Paul Plumeri ANOTHER LEVEL: (Top, from left) Bill, Bob, Rick (the self-proclaimed “Bishop of and David Schmid are bracing themselves for what they the Blues”), blues rocker Flamin’ hope will be a successful summer, featuring live bands, Harry McGonigal, local boys the blues and tapas.

“We were blessed with good weather and models doing well. It was outrageous,” said Nevius of the events of the day, thanking Beach Haven and the Long Beach Township Police Department, which, during a show-stopping moment earlier in the day, allowed the crew to complete a shoot at a mural wall that turned out to be just outside of Beach Haven, from which the crew had originally secured its permits.

Foxx Code was established in 2007. Each issue costs $38 and is basically a coffee table book without the hardcover, Nevius said. The next issue hits the shelves, including 20 locations throughout Long Beach Island, June 1. For more information, log onto foxxcode.com.

THE SANDPAPER/WEDNESDAY, MAY 23, 2012

By MICHAEL MOLINARO atrons had a paradisiacal time sipping wine in the sweet sunshine at the Taylor Avenue ball f ield in Beach Haven during the inaugural Pour Into Summer Wine Festival last weekend. The two-day festival was the first of its kind on Long Beach Island and showcased the spirits of 10 N.J. wineries: Amalthea Cellars, Auburn Road Vineyard, Coda Rossa Winery, Cream Ridge Winery, DiMatteo Vineyard, Plagido’s Winery, Renault Winery, Sharrott Winery, Tomasello Winery and Wagonhouse Winery. Pour Into Summer was not a competition of any kind, though patrons who paid a $15 admission could be seen walking the grounds marking down their favorites on charts that listed the some 250 types of wines available for tasting. Many bought bottles and relaxed on lawn chairs or at tables where they paired their favorite wine with food from any of the nine local vendors on hand. “It’s almost like Chowderfest!” said Jay Endick of Beach Haven West, who was there with his wife, Sue Ellen. “You do the whites and then the reds.” “It’s wonderful,” said Sue Ellen. “I hope they do it every year.” Though Pour Into Summer is not an officially sanctioned event of the Garden State Wine Growers Association, all wineries that participated are members of it. Ollie Tomasello is president of the organization and also heads up Plagido’s Winery. Although he bears the same name as the Tomasello Winery, which lies just five miles down the road from his own in Hammonton, he bears absolutely no connection to it other than a friendly business relationship.

“Everybody’s cordial with each other within the organization,” said Tomasello. “We all try and work together. It’s really just two different families.” Tomasello is a fourth-generation wine grower in his family, his greatgrandfather being a pioneer farmer in Hammonton. “New Jersey grows great fruits and Continued on Page 64, Sec. 2

Continued from Page 62, Sec. 2 vegetables, and we’re finally being recognized for the great wines we’re producing throughout the state and winning medals in competitions in and out of state,” Tomasello said. Plagido’s recently took a double gold at San Francisco Chronicle for its cranberry wine, the berries for which are harvested in Chatsworth. “A lot of restaurants in New Jersey are supporting local wines instead of just getting wines from California or Italy. There are some great wines in New Jersey.” Big sellers for Plagido include its Merlot aged in American oak and its sangria , which made for the perfect complement to the sun-soaked afternoon. Ginger Ronig of Yardley, Pa., was in attendance with her husband and has frequented other wine festivals, such the International Finger Lakes Wine Festival. “It’s great. It’s wonderful,” said Ronig of the event. “We like wine, but never anything sweet. We liked the Cabernet Francs from Plagido and Sharrott and the Burgundy from Renault.” Representing the other end of the flavor spectrum was Diana DiMola, 24, of Little Egg Harbor, who was there with two friends and found a favorite in Sharrott’s bestseller, Crimson Sky. “It wasn’t too dry or else I wouldn’t have enjoyed it. It really went down easy,” DiMola said of the sweet fruit wine that mixed strawberry, cherry and cotton candy flavors. Larry Sharrott is a relative newcomer to the wine-growing scene and began Sharrott Winery as a retirement venture after studying at the University of California at Davis, one of the nation’s premier winemaking schools. Sharrott now produces about 6,000 cases a year in 18 different flavors. He featured nine of those on Saturday but admitted, “It’s a beach community. Everybody loves our peach sangria.” Of the event, he said, “For the first time out, I think the attendance is really good. Usually a brand-new festival needs time to build up, but people seem to be enjoying the wines, and they’re enjoying buying it, too, which is good.” New Jersey fruit wines made with locally grown produce were popular throughout the festival, particularly at Tomasello. Varieties include an award-winning red raspberry, blackberry, blueberry and more. A Vidal Blanc ice wine has won the Governor’s Cup three times. The largest winery in the state, Tomasello now sells in most states in the country and as far as China internationally. Though the event took place on the same field as the annual Chowderfest, the wine festival was much less crowded than the salute to clam soup typically is – something many patrons greatly appreciated. “It’s nice that it’s not too crowded,” said Alicia DiPrimio of Nutley, who was there with her husband, Anthony. The young couple was happy with the affordability of the festival, as other allyou-can-drink wine events might average around $80, they said. “You get your money’s worth.” Kathy Bullock of GPS Inc., a full-service production and management company based in Continued on Page 57, Sec. 2
