We at B’way think dining out is more than eating out. It is an experience - an adventure; it is a form of entertainment. One step into B’way and you will know this is no ordinary pizza shop. The visually rich environment with its architectural details convey a sense of quality to our customers. “We feel customers are not only buying food and service, they’re buying a sensory experience as well.” The architecture also makes its way to the food preparation and presentation. Whether it’s a totally unique “ONLY ON BROADWAY “pizza, one of our “ARTISAN” prepared salads, various fresh mozzarella platters, or an upscale pasta dish, attention to details are obvious. Execution and quality are the most important aspects of service in B’way. Our staff is chosen very selectively and our customers return time and again because we provide personalized, attentive service. Our staff considers B’way more of a loyalty than a “job.” ENJOY

o you have a speedy blue claw crab at home? If so, Long Beach Island PBA Local 175 invites you to enter it in the blue claw crab races planned Saturday, Aug. 18, as part of a triple-header of events in Sunset Park in Harvey Cedars. Registration begins at 10 a.m.; races start at 11.

Entry fee is $3; cost is $5 to rent a crab donated by Harvey Cedars Shellfish Co. or Boulevard Clams in Surf City. Proceeds go to the PBA scholarship fund. Both adults and children are welcome to participate. The “track” is an 8- by 12-foot ramp with a grade of 20 percent.

The event starts with several races, followed by a playoff round featuring all the winners.

The Harvey Cedars Activities Committee’s “Anything Floats” race goes on that afternoon at 4 in the bay off the Sunset Park pavilion. There is no registration fee.

“People can build their own boats out of anything they want,” said Deputy Mayor Judith Gerkens, activities committee liaison.

“It’s a good family activity, as parents and children can work on it together. Everybody gets a good laugh.”

Also on that day, the park will be the site of a Blue Claw Craft Show from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. The Barnegat Light First Aid Squad will be selling food.

“Most of the items displayed are geared toward the kids,” said Gerkens. “It’s something to do while they’re at the park for the crab races.”

For more information on any of the events, call Borough Clerk Dale at 609-3616000, extension 112.

his week’s free dockside tour of Viking Village Commercial Seafood Producers in Barnegat Light will have a special guest present. John K. Bullard, the new administrator for the Northeast Region of the National Marine Fisheries Service, will be on hand Friday, Aug. 17, at 10 a.m. at 18th Street and Bayview Avenue in Barnegat Light.

The dock tours are as visual as they are educational, to give the public a close-up look at the commercial seafood industry. The tour discusses three main fisheries: scalloping, gillnetting and longlining.

Visitors get to see the facility in operation, along with a fresh display of the seafood.

The tours also inform the public about how local fishermen have been working alongside the federal regulators to manage the resources through sustainable practices. This is the topic that Bullard will talk more about, along with Viking Village operators.

The administrator assumed his duties Aug. 6. The Northeast Region is headquartered in Gloucester, Mass., and covers coastal states from North Carolina to Maine. The office manages federal commercial and recreational fisheries, marine mammals, habitat and much more. Bullard will also oversee critical aspects of international fisheries conservation and management in the region.

“His efforts will continue to strengthen NOAA’s partnerships with fishing communities as we work together to build an economically vibrant and sustainable future,” said Sam Rauch, acting assistant administrator for NOAA Fisheries, on Bullard’s appointment.

To register for the dock tour, at no charge, call the Southern Ocean County Chamber of Commerce at 609-494-7211. Space is limited.

Two more dock tours are left on the 2012 season calendar after this week’s tour, Fridays, Aug. 24 and 31, at 10 a.m. Registration is required. —M.S.

rank, Dean and Sammy, better known as The Rat Pack, are together again … well, at least in the form of a popular impersonator show. The Long Beach Island Foundation of the Arts and Science in Loveladies presents “The Rat Pack Together Again” on Friday, Aug. 17, at 7:30 p.m. The traveling act of impersonators will be making their Long Beach Island debut.

Tony Sands produces and stars in the show as Frank Sinatra, a character he has worked on for 25 years. He began singing professionally with Sinatra at the Tropicana Casino and Resort in Atlantic City. Sands is joined by Johnny Petillo as Dean Martin and Geno Monroe as Sammy Davis Jr. Together, the group has performed around the country and beyond, from Florida to Reno, Nev., and even Canada.

“I had heard about this impersonation group and heard great things about them,” said Kristy Redford, the public programs and membership coordinator at the Foundation. She said the response has been strong, but she hopes even more will show up Friday night at the main gallery, which will be set up with theater-style seating.

“People seem to like the light entertainment. The comedy combines with the singing; this is an actual performance, not just a concert,” Redford said.

Sands said the show would run about an hour and a half and include not only the Rat

Pack material performed in unison and individually, but also the onstage comedic banter the trio was known for. “We also do impressions each used to do,” said Sands. “You don’t see that too often in Rat Pack acts.

“What’s good about it is we get a mixed crowd, younger and older people. For the older it brings back a lot of memories, while the younger people tell us it was good to see what (Sinatra, Martin and Davis) were like live, which is great.

“I started listening to it when I was a kid.

You don’t hear much music like it today except for Tony Bennett and Michael Bublé and guys like us because parents aren’t playing it, and it becomes lost. If the family brings the music into their children’s lives at an early age, then they get in tune with it, and it stays with them.”

Sands summed up why he has dedicated so much of his life to helping to keep The Rat Pack alive. “First of all, the music and the songs. They had great writers then that got right into the soul of music, and you have to bring that music to the people. Then what they had onstage – most of what they did was adlibbed. We do the same. We get (the audience) with a serious song, then joke around.”

Tickets are $35 at the door or by calling the Foundation box office, and $30 for Foundation members. For more information, log onto ratpacktogetheragain.com. —M.M.

Czekaj has received accolades from fans who share his fervid love for New Jersey, and produced his sequel because his fans asked him to include more.

A lifelong resident of the state, Czekaj grew up in West Orange and has been surrounded by music from a young age. He played trumpet in his middle school’s orchestra. Inspired by some of music’s biggest icons – Elvis Presley and The Beach Boys – Czekaj learned the guitar and has never looked back. He began recording in the 1960s with a band called Hot Fog, which was made up of high school classmates.

He continued in the ’70s and ’80s with myriad other artists, such as John ‘Otto’ Degennaro and Bobby Bandiera, and their work can be heard on Czekaj’s album, The Saved Recordings.

“I like a wide variety of music,” said Czekaj. “I play some covers and some originals.

The ‘My Home New Jersey’ series was a fun and unique way to gain some exposure.”

The multifaceted Czekaj has caught attention from many, as he has more than 520,000 views on his “My Home New Jersey” series and has received letters from Gov. Chris Christie and other New Jersey officials praising his work.

As his career continues, Czekaj plans to focus his time on new material and projects. He does have plans for a “My Home New Jersey Part III,” but down the road. He hopes that one day, he will have highlighted all that the state has to offer.

THE SANDPAPER/WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 15, 2012

lthough New Jersey is only the 47th largest state, it is replete with beautiful scenery and iconic landmarks. Hoping to highlight the Garden State’s attractions, Paul Czekaj released a tribute song to New Jersey in 2011 titled “My Home New Jersey.” More recently he has released a sequel. The videos feature photos and video clips of revered locations throughout the state – such as Buttermilk Falls and Long Beach Island’s Ron Jon Surf Shop.

“I was inspired to do the song after hearing the Blues Brothers’ song ‘Sweet Home Chicago.’ I wanted to show the same love for New Jersey,” explained Czekaj. “The songs took a lot of research and photography, but it was worth it to showcase all that Jersey has to offer.”

LEH Teen Teaches Origami to Worldwide Audience

I

t’s pretty unusual that a young person has the confidence to teach a class at the Long Beach Island Foundation of the Arts and Sciences but this is actually the second year that 16-year-old Evan Zodl has taught beginning and advanced origami to a wide audience of children and adults.

The teenager from Little Egg Harbor Township has made something of a name for himself in the art of paper folding. In June his original designs were on display at the Fashion Institute of Technology in New York City as part of the national competition “Origami by Children,” now traveling around the country.

He also had his own booth in the adult convention Origami USA and taught a class on his “Logarithmic Spiral” design.

When he was 12, he designed his own YouTube site, ezorigami@ comcast.net, where he gives instructions on how to fold some of his original designs. Since 2008, it has received 5.9 million hits – enough to make him a YouTube partner, which allows him a royalty for the number of hits he receives. “It’s crazy. I had no idea there were so many people interested in origami,” he said.

Zodl started working with origami when he was 10 and in the fifth grade. “It was a project that a friend and I did for our gifted and talented program in school. My friend taught me the basic things, like the crane, and from there I started to teach myself, and designing my own things.”

“He’s very good at math,” said his mother, Carolyn Zodl. “He goes to the MATES school, the high school that specializes in Marine Sciences and Technology – he’s more interested in the technology part of things. The origami helps him with spatial orientation.”

During his class at the Foundation, Zodl patiently went around the room teaching a class that spanned

Zodl holds a paper banner he made of quill folds, from which he will pick out his name using tweezers. Zodl’s original designs include flower and star shapes, which he demonstrates on YouTube.

the ages from 8-year-olds to seniors.

Twins Eli and Zachari Singer said they had just arrived the day before from California, and though they wanted to be at the beach, they also wanted to be in the origami class. “Doing origami is one of my favorite things to do,”

said Eli. “I bring it everywhere. It’s great, especially on trips.”

“It’s fun,” said P.J. LoBello from Beach Haven. “There’s nothing like taking a square piece of paper and turning it into something like this,” he said of a 12-pointed star in front of him.

Zodl then showed the class how to bend a shell design, starting with valley and mountain folds. Twenty minutes later, with Zodl’s help, everyone in class had a nautilus-type shell made from a single piece of paper.

Many of the designs were made

from a single piece of paper, or a single dollar bill – a crab made from a dollar was quite amazing.

Zodl’s most complicated design is a box, called Fireworks, that can be manipulated – turned inside out to show a different color pattern. “That took 45 pieces of paper,” he said.

Zodl will be a senior next year and he is adding to his college fund from his YouTube royalties. He is not sure yet what path he will take in college. “It will have something to do with science and math,” he said.

While perusing the many imaginative memoir boxes displayed around the room that had been created by Stafford Intermediate School’s sixth-grade art class in partnership with LBIF and Smith himself, the crowd eagerly anticipated hearing Smith speak about his journey with the project. Among the masses were many of his long-time friends and family members who traveled from Moorestown, where Smith grew up, to greet his fans and display their loving support for his literary mission.

“You must be proud,” said LBIF’s public programs and membership coordinator Kristy Redford, after introducing herself to Smith’s father, Louis Smith.

“I’ll admit that he’s my son,” joked Smith. “We always try to come to his events,” he said, smiling.

A quiet hush panned over the jubilant gathering as Larry Smith took the stage and began sharing his experiences on the memoir project.

Equipped with a telling PowerPoint presentation that showcased the life of the project, which was displayed in the art gallery on a large projector for all to see, he began telling the story of Ernest Hemingway, who had allegedly been challenged to write a story in just six words. Whether or not this legend is true, Smith said that as a journalist, he was always intrigued by the art and power of a six-word story.

“People have played off six words before, but no one had really said, ‘What’s the six-word story of your life?,’ which I called the ‘six-word memoir,’” he explained.

“Six-word memoirs are very magical. It’s easy to do many; it’s hard to do them well. But some people, of course, have a knack for it. It’s a low bar of entry to get in the game, to write, to say, ‘Hey, I tried this.’ And some of them are excellent,” he added.

After working many years as a journalist in the magazine industry, writing for Men’s Journal, The New York Times and Popular Science , among others, Smith said he wanted to create a magazine specifically for inspiring writers to create their stories and share them with others. He took his prototypes to many publishing houses, hoping to sell his idea, but none were really interested in his philosophy.

After many rejections, Smith decided to start the magazine online, where it wouldn’t cost him much to begin working on it. One day, while hard-pressed for something interactive to share with members of his online community, he said he decided to ask users to share their life story in six

words. The narrative didn’t need to encompass a person’s entire life, but rather a pivotal or even ordinary piece of their existence. The next day, Smith said, he received 1,000 responses to his inquiry.

That was six years ago. Now, between SMITH Magazine and SMITH TEENS, a website just for adolescents, Smith said nearly 550,000 memoirs have been submitted.

“There’s over 50 (people) here, and there’s classrooms all over the world; I wonder if there’s been a million six-word memoirs written at games, at weddings – people do them for the bride and groom. I bet that there’s been a million, but I don’t know that. I know that on my site I have a counter, and I add up teens and adults, and it’s over half a million. So it’s pretty exciting,” Smith reminisced with enthusiasm.

Thus far, SMITH Magazine has published five books encompassing some of the most intriguing sixword memoirs submitted online, at seminars and even sent in via mail.

The books feature all different kinds of personalities, nationalities, sexes and beliefs. Celebrities such as Steven Colbert, Nora Ephron and Dr. Mehmet Oz have also contributed to the project. And, of course, so have Smith’s friends and family members.

“We’ve watched this whole thing flower into a cottage industry,” said Amy Friedman, a childhood and family friend of Smith’s. “Every time he comes out with a new book, I write at least 15 new (memoirs),” she said, flipping to one of her published anecdotes in one of the project’s most recent books, titled It All Changed in an Instant.

Others in the crowd shared their memoirs during the event’s “six-word slam,” evoking oohs and ahhs from those around them. Amused laughter seized the group as one woman shared hers: “Breaking loose at 72; about time,” while a young boy stole their hearts after sharing his: “People seem to love my freckles.”

Stafford Intermediate’s sixthgrade art teacher, Jessica Gomez, and her participating students were applauded for their work featured around the room. The children’s projects each highlighted a specific moment from the previous school year, ranging in topic from music and art to field trips and family secrets.

The projects were of all shapes and sizes and mediums. Some were held together by glue, others with tape or staples. Cardboard and papier-mâché were popular canvases.

Vinny Caprio’s project, titled “Flow: My twisted days at Stafford schools,” captured the essence of his school year, attending school dances and meeting tons of friends. Made out of duct tape, Styrofoam, tubing and paint, the project resembled a winding waterslide, which Caprio said he got

a lot of enjoyment out of building.

“I love art because you can express yourself without having to write a paragraph. (The project) was a lot of fun to make,” he said, proudly standing next to his masterpiece.

“When the Foundation contacted me about the project, I really wanted the kids to come up with good memories they could use to enhance their art projects,” said Gomez. “I told them to really dig down for the weird and embarrassing stuff and let it shine.

The kids wound up really getting into it and helping each other out. I think they did a great job,” she added, beaming with delight.

As the event came to a close, the crowd trickled out and the students took their projects home with them.

But many stuck around for a bit, sharing their thoughts on the seminar and creating yet more six-word memoirs. “(Larry Smith) is an amazing young man,” said Lisa Sokal of Barnegat Light. “His project really puts your life into perspective. He made me think about my own life, living with an autoimmune disease, and my own six-word memoir. To laugh about a disease or a tragic occurrence puts it in perspective because by then you’re already past it. I’m really glad I came out tonight,” she said, smiling ear to ear.

T

he surfboard rack in a shop is like an enchanted forest.

There’s something a little bit magical about all those new sticks lined up just waiting to be ridden, surrounded by images of perfect waves, and the intoxicating smell of wetsuits from across the way. And the easy attitude of the kid in the shop, nodding his head in agreement of just how perfect that board is for your style.

In your head, a few of those boards would be ideal, the pearly white shortboards, the sweetest airbrushed retro fish, or a classy resin tint on a designer longboard. Of course, in your head, every summer day is crystal clear, with chest-high walls of glass bowling across an empty sandbar.

And the reality is more like tiny bits of chop vomiting onto the sand, sideshore winds, three inlanders on soft tops learning to surf next to you, and a fisherman landing his lead a few feet from your head. It doesn’t matter what you’re riding because, if you’re like me, your style is somewhere between a handicapped gorilla and that tight-shirted dude at the bar all hopped up on Liquid Lightning and ecstasy. But let’s not dwell on that.

Instead let’s take some time to

talk boards. Hopefully, you’ve had a chance to check out the running project on our website called “SandPaper, Show Us Your Quiver,” where surfers have been showcasing themselves with their sticks. We have some goodlooking mugs around here, and some great-looking boards.

But I specifically want to talk about small waves and this summer’s design trends for the micro stuff.

Summer happens to be when we have the smallest surf, but despite this, we all want to be out there. Who wants to miss out on our fleeting warm water?

If we consider the last 30 years the age of “modern surfing,” small-wave boards have undergone several different evolutions, and the most recent is taking shape to this day. Of course, the shortboard revolution wasn’t necessarily aimed at small waves. Before 1996, your only real alternative in tiny waves was a longboard. The 9-foot-orbetter board is still an option. I would say, aside from a SUP, you can ride the smallest of ripples with a big, old, heavy log. Fifty years from its arrival, it’s still a blast.

But only the most dedicated longboarders want to ride that pig all summer. In the mid ’90s, Tom Curren

brought the fish back into style, the kind of boards that Barnegat’s Jesse Frack was busting loose on around here in the 1970s.

The new fish went in two directions: One was re-creating vintage boards from 20 years prior, and the other took the attributes of the classic fish – shorter, wider, more volume, pronounced swallow tails, twin fins and decreased rocker and created a hybrid of all the aforementioned characteristics, just toned down from the originals. It was awesome to have that choice and be able to scoot down the line on a knee-slapper. If you think back, Florida’s Cory Lopez and California’s Chris Ward were really pushing the limits on these things in those classic “Lost” films. The drawback for the average surfer, however, was that the retro designs didn’t work in critical waves or any kind of chop. The hybrids fared better, but there was still a considerable difference in the way they held in real waves, especially if you wanted to do a proper turn.

By 2006, quads came back in a big way. They gave you the feel of a twin fin, but held a little better. Still, they’re tough on most of our winter swells and rough to ride backside.

There was a major shift in about 2009 when California’s Dane Reyn-

olds started riding a Channel Islands board called the Dumpster Diver. It is said that Ventura, Calif., shaper Robert Weiner, who was at Farias’ Ship Bottom store a few weeks ago on an East Coast tour, created the Robert’s White Diamond model that was Reynolds’ inspiration.

Reynolds was a refreshing breath of air to the ASP World Tour and wasn’t afraid to stray from the same ol’ narrow, thin shortboard. We couldn’t get enough of him. And unlike the other surfers on tour, who were fine-tuning 1/32nd inch of nose width, the stumps Dane was riding translated to the average surfer. It was wider, fatter and shorter, like the traditional fish, but the swallowtail gave way to a wide squash or diamond shape. The nose was pulled in, the rocker decreased to nothing, the outline made sexier, and a single concave added. The only other surfer to deviate from the norm happened to be Kelly Slater, the greatest of all time, and even his boards didn’t move the dial like Reynolds’.

Pretty much everyone I know got a Dumpster Diver or something similar as each surfboard company came out with its own version. The DD wound up being Channel Island’s biggest seller ever. The shorter board

made speed without sacrificing performance. You catch more waves, get momentum and do legitimate turns in the pocket.

And now these design fundamentals are being improved on to move in even smaller surf. Reynolds’ new thing is the Sperm Whale, a very thin, short, wide board that almost has the outline of a funshape, but the biggest stock board is 6-foot-1 and the smallest is 5-foot-1! Keep in mind that a 3-foot wave in the summer and a 3-foot wave in the winter here are two very different things.

“The Neckbeard Squash is the most popular Channel Islands model,” said Brian Farias. “We did sell a couple of Dane’s new board, the Sperm Whale, as well this summer. The Fred Rubble and the DFR (short for Dane Freaking Reynolds) bridge the gap between your groveler and your board for better waves. Dane surfs Ventura, which has a variety of waves from soft points to wedges to barrels.

I think that is why these boards are so popular out here. Rocker is key. The designs translate very well.”

The Channel Islands truck was in Beach Haven on Saturday, allowing surfers to demo all the horses in the stable.

FAMILY FRIENDLY: Bill Hadam (left) and Andy Hladek bring their unique brand of sing-along fun and foolishness to the Surf City Hotel every Sunday.

By MICHAEL MOLINARO lmost 20 members of the packed crowd at Surf City Hotel Aug 5 who were on hand to witness and participate in The Bill and Andy Show were members of Bill Hadam’s family who had come down to the shore for a reunion weekend.

Every seat or barstool was full, but it was not because they were all Hadam’s

A

family. It’s because the duo works hard and plays hard on and off the stage, and have earned their own loyal family of fans during the last five years at the hotel.

The show is a loose yet energetic mix of popular sing-along acoustic songs from well over half a century ago to present day, combined with silly jokes and prop comedy, all with an emphasis on crowd participation. Hadam and Andy Hladek are a bar-trick segment away from being downright vaudevillian. In fact, for those looking for a raucous, “spirited” sing-along in the style of a crowded Irish pub or a lederhosen-packed German brauhaus during Oktoberfest, the closest to get in this area is The Bill and Andy Show.

“Country mice” and “city mice” alike could not resist singing loudly to the chorus of “Country Road,” for example; some songs just stand the eternal test of time in terms of their ability to make people do so. Hadam and Hladek seem to know exactly what those songs are.

A plastic, rotating, dual halo of requests via bar napkins from the crowd hangs above them, with the occasional tip slipped in to establish

n Monday nights at the Spray Beach Inn, the sounds of Frank Sinatra are emanating through the vocal talents of Dave Sodano.

This is Sodano’s third summer doing “Sinatra by the Sea,” which runs from 5 to 9 p.m. He has been performing his Ol’ Blue Eyes tribute shows for nearly 15 years, starting out at the old Wida’s Hotel in Brant Beach, and then Nardi’s Tavern in Haven Beach.

“They keep moving me south,” he said. “At the rate I’m going, I’m going to wind up in the inlet.”

With more than 100 albums recorded and 324 singles released, Sinatra has probably one of the most exhaustive song catalogs of any entertainer. But wherever Sodano plays, the audiences like to hear the most popular ones, such as “Summer Wind,” “I’ve Got You Under My Skin,” “New York, New York,” “The Lady is a Tramp,” “That’s Life” and “My Way” among others.

Sodano used to sing a lot of those tunes more than 20 years ago during karaoke nights at the old Quarter Deck Inn in Ship Bottom. He recalled how on numerous occasions, people would come up to him and tell him how much his voice resembled the Chairman of the Board.

“I wasn’t out there trying to be a Sinatra impersonator,” said Sodano.

“It just naturally worked out that way.”

Then he thought perhaps it would be time to take his natural talent to another level. He learned many more Sinatra songs and started working more on his singing. Besides club gigs, there were requests to do weddings and other special events. He also did some free summer concerts.

“I never had a singing lesson in my life,” he said. “I thought singing was pretty much getting up in front of a microphone like you do in karaoke, but it is a lot more. In a way, I’m finding now that I’m finally really learning to sing. Singing involves interactions with the audience, having a presence. I want people to have fun.”

Sodano said as far as being an entertainer, he was heavily influenced

by Jackie Vee and Paul Presto, who were a longtime Sunday-afternoon fixture at the Surf City Hotel.

“They weren’t just up there singing; they were making it a happen-

ing the way they interacted with the crowd,” he said. “They would joke around a lot, and everybody loved it.

When I get up there, I want to bring joy to people.”

Sodano did try a new musical venture recently. Toward the end of his career, Sinatra released an album of duets, working with a diverse group of recording artists including Aretha Franklin, U’2’s Bono, Natalie Cole, Gloria Estefan, Barbra Streisand and Anita Baker. Sodano went into the studio to record “Just You and Me” with Michelle Ricco, lead singer for the David Christopher

Orchestra.

“Unless I can get Michelle here, I probably won’t be doing that one at Spray Beach,” he said. “But it was still fun to do.”

Sodano said that what really “warms my heart” are the people who come to see him summer after summer.

“I want to thank loyal listeners,” he said. “That’s what helps keep me going.”

priority. If anything from outside of the 300-plus catalog of songs the two perform comes up, they will either play something else by the same artist or promise to learn it for next week.

The guitarists are truly multiinstrumentalists, working in sounds from mandolins or a ukulele, as they did on the crowd-pleasing “Hey, Soul Sister” by Train. Hadam even breaks out the hilarity-inducing mini-trombone on songs like “My Girl.”

Crowd participation is of the likes rarely seen and is practically constant.

Cowbell duties during “the cowbell medley” is a highly sought, occasionally fight-inducing responsibility. On this night, however, percussion obligations belonged to Hadam’s family members in attendance, who joyfully helped keep a beat through “Don’t Fear the Reaper,” “All Right Now,” “Honky Tonk Woman” and “We’re Not Gonna Take It.”

Hadam’s daughter Amy joined the act vocally on “The Unicorn Song,” while son Matt strapped on the guitar for “Brown-Eyed Girl.”

The aisles wrapping around the three bars of the Beach Club lounge at the Surf City Hotel made for perfect pathways for a lengthy conga line along to the playing of “Volcano” by Jimmy Buffett.

These guys are not American Idol finalists. They sing in their speaking voices, and those voices are of the everyman. This seems to encourage more singing throughout the room.

Besides, as their motto goes, “The more you drink, the better we sound.”

Occasionally a microphone is passed around the bar or a random patron is brought up to sing the song karaoke style along with the band.

Even a white-haired stranger one of the two had met on the beach that day ended up jamming on harmonica to

“Thunder Road.”

A bag of assorted headgear sits waiting to be used during the right song, such as a rubber chicken head donned during a version of “Chicken Fried” by the Zac Brown Band.

The Bill and Andy Show has been running Sundays at 5 p.m. from Memorial Day to Labor Day at the hotel for five years. The brotherly bond they share dates back to childhood, however. Since then each has gone on to successful careers as an IT manager and marketing director respectively, but reconvened upon realizing music performance would be the perfect outlet for stress.

This effect seems most evidenced by the fact that the duo never took a break during what was about a threehour, 40-minute show. “That’s Springsteen-type stuff,” joked Hadam.

Hadam is “more old school,” Continued on Page 48, Sec. 2

By PAT JOHNSON n 2001, while working for Borders Books, Jeanne Sutton could check the â&#x20AC;&#x153;Sâ&#x20AC;? shelf in the author section and ďŹ nd her own book, Blood Sisters, about the life of Marie Antoinette, shelved right next to Jacqueline Susannâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Valley of the Dolls, a real thrill for the self-published writer of historical ďŹ ction.

But in the world of publishing, books have a shelf life akin to yogurt. Too soon, the thrill faded.

In 2012, Sutton decided she would enter the world of e-books and with a friendâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s help â&#x20AC;&#x153;and a helping of French bread,â&#x20AC;? she said, she re-titled her book Antoinette by J.C. Sutton as a Kindle e-book. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a brave new publishing world,â&#x20AC;? said Sutton. â&#x20AC;&#x153;New ways to read are fast, convenient and affordable.â&#x20AC;? Her 2001 Xlibris book can cost $6 to $20 on Amazon while the Kindle edition can be downloaded for 99 cents. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s less than a slice of pizza,â&#x20AC;? she noted.

Suttonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s own life has enough interest to be a novel. Actually that will be her second book, an autobiography, she explained over coffee at The Tuckerton Emporium. For instance, she once auditioned for the Actors Studio in New York City purely by chance as she was there with a friend. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He was doing a scene from â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Two for the Seesawâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; and he needed a girl, and as we were practicing, someone came over and asked if I would like to audition. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I was told to take voice, singing and fencing and come back in nine months. I was just wrapping up my college years and I was offered a teaching job, equipping a theater, so I jumped at the chance and I stuck with it. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m nothing if not practical. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is my ďŹ rst novel. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve ghostwritten two books, but they were nonďŹ ction. A 20th Century Manual of Printmaking was one, nothing ever so fascinating. That was when I was operating WordsWorth on South Street in Philadelphia.

… at Doyle’s Pour House, Tuckerton:

publicity as a visible ghostwriter. Maury Povich interviewed me for his talk show on a Philadelphia channel. It was wonderful practice, even though my name wasn’t on the byline.

“This was the late ’70s,” she continued, “two or three years before female entrepreneurs were ‘the thing,’ and bankers were looking at me like ‘hmmm,’ even though I had a business plan. I don’t regret it at all because it opened other opportunities, including the ad agency where I put in a number of years.

“I also ghost wrote a gossip column; that was a lot of fun. I was Stanley Green. You may or may not recognize the name; he was the last ‘Man About Town.’ In his heyday, his work was syndicated in Philadelphia and regional papers.

He was close, personal friends with people like Patti la Belle, Rodney Dangerfield, people like that. He would get the items and I would write the pieces. He and his wife lived in the penthouse of the Warwick Hotel in Philly. He was famous for not picking up the check. He was the grand old man about town with a goatee; he was very connected to politicians, mobsters and you name it. I would produce an item in Philadelphia and sure enough, in a week it would be in the (National) Enquirer.

“I have written all my life starting with a diary my ninth or 10th birthday,” Sutton said, “and I continue to write daily. It’s not where I go for fiction; I keep them very separate. Sometimes if it’s something emotional, it might come out as a poem.

“I also worked in the book business for many years, enough to know that novels are not what you quit your day job over.

“Writing is therapeutic. When you move a great deal, having something internal (such as a journal) grounds you. I have a collection of books about people who journal.

“I’m crazy for words, have been since I was a little kid. I love the way they sound, how they fit together, and that’s where my poetry comes in.

That arrives with you; I don’t think you train for that, and I never did study. I’ve taken one class in creative writing.

“Anybody really can do this. Yes, it has a craft aspect and a creative aspect. The craft aspect you can learn. If anyone has ever said to you, ‘Boy, you tell a good story,’ then I think you can write. Too many people are intimidated by the craft aspects, the old question ‘Did I do it right?’

“Especially if you journal, that’s the best way to find out if you can do it. If you want to walk, then walk; if you want to write, you have to do it, not just think about it.

“What’s encouraging is I went along and did this (published an e-book). I think if I didn’t have a friend who knew what they were doing, this wouldn’t have happened.”

Why Marie Antoinette?

“I started the book in a serous way in 1984, when I first started the research. I was working at an ad agency in Philadelphia. The art director was a book buddy, so ’most every morning I

That’s part of the thing.” * Woman to friends: “So his friend’s, like, ‘Sounds like Molly Ringwald!’” * Bar owner to customer (incredulous): “So you came on a bus with a hula hoop?”

I borrowed it and read it. There were things in it that staggered me. It was published in 1901 and was the purported memoirs of Marie Antoinette’s friend the Princess Louise, princess of Lamballe, and her friend to the end.

Reading that book, all that gory stuff about her marriage, the friendships she forged, I found heartwarming and fascinating.

Costner, Paxton Shine as Historic W Hatfield, McCoy H

By BILL GEIGER ere we are in the old dog days of summer, traditionally the hottest time of the year. Hard to tell these days, though. It seems like we’ve been in the dog days since March. But from late July to late August, the Dog Star, Sirius, so-called because it’s the brightest star in the constellation Canis Major, the “Big Dog,” shines brightly in the night sky, and the ancient Romans believed that the appearance of Sirius was a time of bad omen. Dogs would go mad, people became lethargic, the heat was oppressive, the seas boiled and wine turned sour.

Sounds pretty dire. At this time of the summer, Sirius is indeed the brightest star in the night sky, and since the hottest time of the summer coincided with the rise of the Dog Star, a legend was born.

That legend can be good for us, since we need to be lethargic and find time to settle into our comfy chairs, nuke some popcorn and watch the DVDs that have recently been released. What better excuse than the Dog Days, the sluggishness, the heat, the languid feelings, to give us the freedom we need to chuck it all and watch a flick or two. It’s a built-in get-out-of-jailfree card.

So let’s get to it. Since there are a lot of films out this week, what do we have to look forward to in the world of DVDs? There’s a film about a longrunning feud, one about a crime told from several different points of view, a 1937 French masterpiece newly out to Blu-ray and one about the adventures of a little orange creature who “speaks for the trees.” In short, something for everyone, no matter how much popcorn you want.

Our first film is something of a dud, but it has an interesting premise.

“ATM” tells the story of three upand-coming managers at a firm who find themselves using the same ATM one bitter-cold night after a company Christmas party. As one is about to leave, they notice a hulking presence in a winter parka hovering about outside. Fearing malevolence, the three stay trapped in the little ATM booth while contemplating the intentions of the mystery man outside. In the process, each divulges something unflattering about his or her personality.

One in particular, Corey, should have been sacrificed early by the other two for being powerfully imbecilic.

Alice Eve, Brian Geraghty and Josh Peck play the three executives. Peck, incidentally, plays Corey. What could have been a pretty cool flick about people forced together who have to work out a serious problem instead becomes a somewhat inane film about characters you barely care about trying to avoid a killer, wondering why the killer kills, why he chose those victims and how the manufactured tension can seem more real.

The killer even knows how to cut

off the heat to the ATM booth but is not a very intuitive crazy man. Since my experiences with ATMs often leave me scratching my head, I have some sympathy with Corey, Emily and David, but I can’t always understand their actions. Therefore, I’ll give two bags of popcorn for “ATM,” and suggest perhaps that the three should have used their mattresses instead of the ATM. One of the most legendary family feuds in American history – and I’m not talking about the Richard Dawson game show – is the one between the Hatfields and the McCoys. The History Channel recently presented the story as a miniseries, and we now get the complete film on DVD. Called “Hatfields & McCoys,” the movie stars Kevin Costner as “Devil Anse” Hatfield and Bill Paxton as Randall McCoy, the two patriarchs of the feuding clans.

The story begins with Anse and Randall fighting with the Confederates near the end of the Civil War, and then traces the growth of the hostility between the families, the Hatfields from West Virginia, the McCoys from just across the Tug River in Kentucky. The film is authentic, the actors top-notch and the experience intense, so we’ll reserve four bags of popcorn for this historical drama. By the way, the DVD has the complete cut of the film not sliced up for commercial television.

That’s the one to get.

An interesting film mainly for the point of view its director takes is “Scalene.” In math, a scalene triangle is a triangle with unequal sides, and in Zack Parker’s little film, a horrific incident is played out through three unequal viewpoints. Parker asks the viewer to decide the truth as the three characters tell it. The story concerns a rape, a disabled young man’s caregiver and the young man’s mother, all wrapped up into a flashback of the incident and how each participated in it. Parker obviously understands his Hitchcock, as “Scalene” shows off many of the master’s touches. We’ll set aside three bags of popcorn for “Scalene,” Parker’s tribute to Hitch as well as the great Japanese auteur Akira Kurosawa, whose “Rashomon” is similarly structured.

As someone who has always liked the original “The Lorax” by Dr. Seuss, I have to say I was surprised, mostly in a good way, by the new animated version starring the voices of Danny DeVito and Ed Helms. “The Lorax” was originally a cautionary tale about overuse of natural resources and the ultimate devastation of the environment by corporate greed. In short, while it is an animated tale, it’s not a cartoon.

The new “The Lorax” puts the environmental devastation in the background while trying to be a cutesy-poo love story between Audrey and Ted Continued on Page 48, Sec. 2

By MICHAEL MOLINARO hile waiting for work during a lay-off period, union ironworker Matt Macedo, 30, of Forked River decided to hone a new skill – the art of custom tobacco pipe carving. His designs must be up to snuff, as several of his pieces are now being featured at Tobacco Road, a longstanding smoke shop on East Bay Avenue in downtown Barnegat.

“Up until now I just made them for friends and family,” said Macedo.

“But everybody’s been encouraging me, saying they’re very beautiful; that they could make great conversation pieces or decorations for houses.”

Completely self-taught, Macedo begins by doodling and developing the shape of the pipe on paper. He then orders the imported briar that is used in most quality tobacco pipes for its solidity and ability to withstand fire.

While most commercially made pipes are carved with a lathe, an expensive power tool, each one of Macedo’s pipes is carved with a band saw and power sander. The bowl of the pipe is carved by hand.

“I do consider it an art form,” said Macedo. “It’s all about the shape and what you can do with this little bit of material you have.”

After shaping the briar into straight stem, half-bent, and fullbent (think Sherlock Holmes) varieties, Macedo usually adds a plastic stem, which also come in different styles.

Besides continuing to features pieces at Tobacco Road, Macedo is hoping to set up shop at upcoming fall festivals including the Cranberry Festival in Chatsworth and the Ocean County Decoy and Gunning Show in Tuckerton, although the latter has so far denied Macedo’s request for a table despite the core of the event being a display of another woodcarving art in the form of waterfowl decoys.

Macedo said he was told tobacco pipe carving is not conducive to the duck-hunting theme of the show.

Eventually, Macedo hopes to turn his newfound hobby and skill into a business and sell his pipes online.

For now he is happy to have found an aficionado in Tobacco Road owner Jeff Melchiondo, who believes in what he’s producing.

“Matt is the first local (pipe carver) I’ve sold in 16 years,” said Melchiondo. “He’s done a great job, and each one is unique with its own character, using the best grades of briar for the pipe. They feel good in your hand; they’re not too heavy. It’s something you can be proud to own for many years to come, and if you take care of it and clean it, it can last a lifetime.”

Tobacco pipe carving is a tradition that dates back hundreds of years, most notably to Italy, due partially to briar being found throughout the Mediterranean basin.

Today many top pipe makers, such as Savinelli, are based there.

Pipe prices range from $6 corn cob pipes up to thousands, the priciest of which are made by the best carvers in the world who have since died, thus increasing the value of their work. Tobacco Road is currently offering Macedo’s pipes for

SMOKE SIGNAL: Macedo hopes to turn his hobby into a business, by selling his pipes online and at Tobacco Road in Barnegat. He fashions each piece using a band saw, power sander and hand carving techniques. between $100 and $125.

The question remains whether the time and material Macedo has put into his craft will pay off.

“You have to feel your way through the market,” said Melchiondo, who said business is still

there. He has seen a rise in the sale of low-cost cigars and pipes in recent years, with a drop-off in higher-end products.

Meanwhile, Macedo carves, and smokes, and waits. * michaelmolinaro@thesandpaper.net

Continued from Page 46, Sec. 2 (the voices of Taylor Swift and Zac Efron), keeping that in the foreground. There’s also a musical score, though there was singing in the original one, too, and while the new version is a little more upbeat, I think it sugarcoats the environmental message. Pity, that. Once you understand the importance of the Truffula trees and the way the Once-ler (Helms) sows the seeds of his own destruction, you get the drift of the final line of the poem: “Unless someone cares a whole lot, nothing’s going to get better; it’s not.”

So my suggestion is this – watch the new film, then go find the 1972 animated version with Eddie Albert as the narrator, and you’ll get the real story of the Lorax, who speaks for the trees, because the trees have no tongues. Let’s scare up two bags for the new “Lorax,” and four bags for the original. Put it on your Netflix queue; the original is available there.

Fans of costume dramas in general, and Robert Pattinson in particular, might find “Bel Ami” to their liking. It’s the story of a poor soldier, Georges Duroy (Pattinson), who returns to France after war in Algeria and decides to seek his fame and fortune in Paris. While there, he is befriended, then returns the favor by seducing several of the wives of the men who befriend him, thus climbing the ladder of success.

Pattinson is calculating and clever; he takes a big step away from his “Twilight” films, and the women who play opposite him, Kristen Scott Thomas, Uma Thurman and Christina Ricci, are mesmerizing. There are two directors, Declan Donnellan and Nick Ormerod, which might account for some of the film’s soft parts, but the story comes from French author Guy de Maupassant, whose novel of the same name was published in 1885. We’ll sneak three bags of popcorn for “Bel Ami” and hope Pattinson continues to branch out.

The Submarine Movie of the Week: Our film this week is the stunning Robert Wise flick “Run Silent Run Deep,” premiering in 1958 with Clark Gable as Commander Richardson and Burt Lancaster as Lt. Bledsoe. It’s the story of a man who was sort of damaged goods, a sub commander whose first sub was sunk by a Japanese destroyer. He gets a second chance at command, but his need for revenge against that destroyer puts the lives of his men at great peril.

Gable and Lancaster are always good, and Wise does the job ratcheting up the tension as you wonder if Gable is going crazy, or Asiatic, as the boys used to say then. “Run Silent Run Deep” gets four bags of popcorn, plus a few cold ones

Bill & Andy Continued from Page 42, Sec. 2 according to his wife, Jeannie, influencing the more classic selections of the duo’s sets such as “Friend of the Devil” by Grateful Dead. Hladek, on the other hand, is the reason the two have added songs such as Lady Gaga’s “Poker Face” betwixt a medley of “Living on a Prayer” and “Psycho Killer.”

The duo began their musical therapy in Woodbridge 10 years ago and kept moving their act from place to place, which led them to playing at The Grapevine restaurant in Tuckerton.

It was there that Jim Kearns of Ship Bottom first saw their show and recommended them to the Surf City Hotel as the heirs to the “Jackie Vee and Paul Presto” throne. Jackie and Paul held court on Sundays at the hotel for about 40 years, similarly playing to the crowds while on keyboards and horns. A house band that played the hotel seven nights a week at one point, Jackie and Paul were known for playing from inside the bar and taking the crowd participation and interaction up a notch – both traditions that Bill and Andy keep alive and well.

“They fill that role very nicely,” said George Canellis, 70, of North Beach, who was there with friends and neighbors. Canellis has seen them multiple times this summer, drawn back by the variety of music the duo put out there. “I prefer some of the older ones because of my age, but what they play appeals to a broad spectrum. I think they’re developing; they’re still growing.

to wash them down.

Also for your consideration… We have a couple of westerns newly out on Blu-ray this week, including the last film in John Wayne’s cavalry trilogy, “Rio Grande” (1950), also starring Maureen O’Hara; and Joan Crawford’s “Johnny Guitar” (1954), directed by Nicholas Ray and also starring Sterling Hayden. If you haven’t yet seen Colin Farrell in “Total Recall” on the big screen, you can catch Arnold Schwarzenegger in “Total Recall, Mind-Bending Edition,” new on Blu-ray. Ah-nold teamed with director Paul Verhoeven and actress Sharon Stone in the 1990 film, and it was a doozy.

Also new on Blu-ray is “La Grande Illusion” (1937) by Jean Renoir, son of the famous painter, about three soldiers in a World War I German prison camp, one aristocrat and two middle class, who seek to escape but then are transferred into an impenetrable fortress. The aristocrat becomes friends with the commandant, also an aristocrat, and doesn’t want to try to escape, but the other two do. “La Grande Illusion” is a great meditation on class boundaries and how far they’ll go. It’s old, but a great film.

The complete first season of Cinemax’s original series “Strike Back” is now available on DVD. John Cusack fans have double the reason to celebrate, as two of his films are now available on Blu-ray. One, “Grosse Point Blank,” is out as a 15th anniversary special edition, and the other, “High Fidelity,” has just come out as well. Speaking of anniversary editions, Chris Columbus’ “Adventures in Babysitting” is 25 years old, and it is just out on Blu-ray, as is the recent documentary “Marley,” about the reggae legend Bob Marley, his life and music.

The top five DVD rentals, as tabulated by rental giant Redbox, are as follows: in the fifth spot is “21 Jump Street,” with Jonah Hill and Channing Tatum; at number four is “Lockout,” about a maximum security prison orbiting the Earth and the attempt to rescue the president’s daughter, held as a hostage, with Guy Pearce and Maggie Grace; at number three we have “Wanderlust,” with Paul Rudd, Jennifer Anniston and Alan Alda; at number two is “Mirror, Mirror,” the Snow White story with Julia Roberts and Lily Collins; and at number one, the most rented DVD for the week is “American Reunion,” the “American Pie” characters coming back for their high school reunion. “Reunion” stars Jason Biggs, Alyson Hannigan and Tara Reid.

That’s all she wrote for this week. The closing ceremonies of the Olympics took place Sunday, so now our lives will have a tremendous void that we’ll have to fill with new DVDs. It’s going to be difficult replacing the woman’s beach volleyball, though. Watch out for those dog days, and for heaven’s sake, drink up all the wine before it sours. I’ll see you in two.

They’re much more polished than they were – they’re quite polished.”

Between songs, the two crack jokes back and forth, of which Hadam is often the victim.

Or as, like when Hadam said to Hladek, “Your mom’s still paying me $20 to hang out with her every week. That was a lot of money 40 years ago, but now it’s just got to stop.”

Hadam’s mother, Norma, was in attendance at the hotel for the first time, though she had seen the two perform elsewhere. So how did she grade her son? Actually she didn’t have much of an opinion; she was just happy they were no longer playing in her basement.

“The crystal in my china closet used to hit one another and jingle while they were downstairs,” Norma said. “But it was a lot of fun.

They loved it. They’re still good kids; they’re still my babies.

“Every single friend he has had since kindergarten he has kept in touch with,” Norma said of Hadam. It is a quality that helps the band maintain its strong following even today; the pair often check photos kept from the same week of the previous year to see what regular renters they might expect in attendance.

“It’s humbling to see the same people year after year after year,” said Hadam.

Cousins came from as far as New England and Ohio to be there; some of them were seeing the show for the first time.

“I wish I had a family like you do!” joked the single and child-free Hladek. Truthfully, “It was really shocking there was this many people,” he admitted. * michaelmolinaro@thesandpaper.net

Liquid Lines Continued from Page 41, Sec. 2 Robert’s still offers the White Diamond, but this summer has the Diamond Fish and the Modern 80s. His latest is the Mush Monster, which has yet to reach LBI. “For Lost, it would be the Rocket V.2 and the Sub-Driver. Drivers were basically all over the U.S. Open. Seemed like everyone was riding Mayhem’s (shaper for Lost) boards,” Farias added.

Another trend is the Mini Simmons. Bob Simmons was an innovative board builder in the 1950s, the first to tinker with the hydrodynamics of surfboards. Little known fact: He also invented the textured rubber ping-pong paddle.

His short boards with straight-cut square tails have been modernized for small waves. Farias carries a version of this in the Chris Christenson Ocean Racer, the Ocean Avenger 5-fin, which Farias has been riding himself this year.

“The goal with all these boards is to have an increased volume hidden in a smaller template, a flat overall rocker for paddling and get drive through mushy sections,” he explains.

The board of choice for summer gruel at Wave Hog and Brighton Beach Surf Shops is the Bandito by Matador Surfboards.

“It’s basically taking a longboard outline

and shrinking it down to 5-foot, but they go up to 8-foot-6. It’s full to the rail with rolling vee to help power you through the mush with a bumped pintail to pivot for more aggressive surfing,” said Marco Grasso at Wave Hog Surf Shop, “Every surf instructor I have is riding it.

Matador doesn’t have a lot of marketing budget, so all our sales are word of mouth. Friends tell friends about them. We’ve sold over 400 of them in the past few years.”

“It’s a wave thief,” offered Michael Lisiewski of Brighton Beach Surf Shop, “It’s a forwardvolume board with an emphasis on catching waves and quick entry. The Bandito is made from a fish blank; it’s flatter than a typical shortboard. Every cubic inch of foam is put to use. It has a single wing at the front fins to loosen the tail, disperse water and help it drive deeper. It’s an East Coast board made for the East Coast.”

Matador’s “little brother” label, Boneyard Surfboards, offers the Shrunken Head, a similar shape offered as a convertible or “five fin.”

The big news this summer at Surf Unlimited is that Forked River board builder Bill Kretzer is back to mowing foam, and he’s doing it right out of Surf Unlimited’s converted garage. You actually can go watch him shape. (Call the shop for details at 609-494-3555.)

Kretzer has been working on some summerspecific boards that his brother and test pilot Chris is riding. The model is called the “Olasito” (“sito” being the diminutive suffix in Latino; the literal translation is: small wave.)

Terry Deakyne at Island Surf and Sail recom-

mends the Lib Tech “Bowl” for smaller waves.

As you may know, Lib Tech is a snowboard company, but it has deep roots in surfing and has developed some unique and very durable materials for surfboards. We will talk more about those when they arrive in the shop later this month.

The Surf Shack South, which is primarily a skate and skimboard operation right now, still has ties to Kechele, Orion and Cannibal Surfboards, all out of Florida, and can order custom boards. Matt Kechele seems to have the Diamond Cutter well dialed this year. *** So, there it is. We’ve got about a month left until the season really starts to change and water temps drop from their mid-70s comfort. Make the most of that time on something fat and fast.

And speaking of changes, it would be nice to have a new forecast scenario instead of five days of knee-high waves with one morning of stomach-high and then a day or two of flat, repeat, repeat. Someone has finally plugged in the tropical storm machine down on the equator. We’re entering into what is known as the “Cape Verde season,” when storms come off the west coast of Africa. These tend to be the most exciting of storms, although perhaps it’s just all that anticipation as they slowly work their way across the Atlantic.

Hurricane Ernesto hit Mexico last week, and right on his heels, two systems came off the coast of Africa. Let’s keep in mind that this was predicted to be a slow-to-average year for the tropics, so while the storms spitting off Senegal

like a machine gun may look favorable, the problem is when they get over open waters. We’ve entered an El Niño phase, (brace yourself for this winter) which is known for stronger winds along the equator that can shear apart storms.

Regardless, there’s at least something to watch for those of us who aren’t consumed by Fantasy Football drafts.

The surf this week was courtesy of one of the more significant low-pressure systems of the summer. I know it’s not ideal if you only have a one-week vacation, but I’ll take that rain and wind we had on Friday over that kill-yourself heat anyday.

Saturday brought 2- to 3-foot surf with south winds and a bit of a south angle. If you got it at the right spot, there were a few chest-high rights running down the beach. These were more sections than lines. You’d find yourself taking off on what looked like a nice peak, and then it would be a giant mushburger on the shoulder. Or you’d push in and find yourself on the backside of the next section with no hope of connecting.

You really had to work to find a sweet spot, and that was short lived.

This swell cleaned up on Sunday for some fun waves. The wind never went true offshore, which made dawn patrol rough. It died enough for mostly glassy conditions, but then got funky at low tide. A light sea breeze kicked up in the afternoon. The morning was decent, although this swell was pretty weak in a lot of places. Still, it was very fun for a longboard, and if you found the right spot where it was breaking closer to the beach, there may have been a punchy pocket or two. We’ve had a handful of similar days this summer, and while it’s easy to complain, LBI tends to work better this time of year than most of New Jersey.

The rest of the week is looking pretty lackluster, although not completely dismal. And when you’re in August without a significant hurricane on the horizon, that’s all you can hope for.

The big environmental news this weekend was the Clean Ocean Action-organized “Tour for the Shore,” a paddle and bike rally from Cape May to Montuak, N.Y. The paddling was handled by activist/endurance athlete Margo Pellegrino. You may remember that she paddled an outrigger canoe from Miami to Maine in 2008 and then did other West Coast and Gulf paddles.

Last year I had the pleasure of paddling half the LBI leg of her non-stop Jersey Shore trip on a SUP; that involved Beach Haven to Ship Bottom from 1 a.m. to 3 p.m.

The pedal portion was handled by Clean Ocean Action’s attorney, Peter Dixon. They did somewhat simultaneous trips by land and sea.

They made the trip up from Atlantic City on Sunday morning and had a press event in Holgate.

Then Margo stroked on the ocean side, passing through Ship Bottom at around 2:20 p.m. up to Barnegat Light, where there was a rally at Van’s Marina. They were supported locally by the LBI Foundation of the Arts and Sciences, Kubel’s, Viking Village, Jetty, Alliance for a Living Ocean, ReClam the Bay and the Garden Club of LBI. Several local paddlers cruised out to paddle with Pellegrino. But she’s on a distance touring board and she’s fast. A 6 mph pace doesn’t sound like much, but try keeping up with her and you’ll get it. Meanwhile, the pedalers did 80 miles around Great Bay. It seemed to go really well.

And while this is a very cool way to raise awareness for the health of our oceans, it was quite a bit more than that. Right now, Clean Ocean Action (with a network of grassroots enviro organizations like our own ALO) is pushing for real legislation called the Clean Ocean Zone, which would ban testing and drilling for oil off the coast of New Jersey and New York, as well as irresponsible development of our shorelines and ocean.

A bill called HR 6082, the latest attempt to bring offshore oil and gas drilling to the Atlantic Ocean, just passed in the House of Representatives, by a 253-170 margin. But in a show of bipartisanship (which is as rare as seeing the Jersey Devil eating from your tomato plants), New Jersey’s congressional delegation all voted “no” in an attempt to protect our ocean. That means all the Republicans, LoBiondo, Smith, Lance, Frelinghuysen and even our representative, John Runyan, turned it down. This is the kind of action we need if the next generation is going to swim, fish and benefit from tourism on our coast. Thankfully it is not expected to pass Continued on Page 52, Sec. 2

the sixth annual Surfer’s Environmental Alliance NYC Paddle, presented by O’Neill.

This started as a fundraiser, which it still is.

But now it also includes a very competitive race.

And by attracting some of the best distance paddlers in the world, they also raise the exposure and hence, raise more money. There are seven beneficiaries, and they all are involved with autism. I went on the chase boat the first year they did it. And while jokes about bodies in the East River and “Coney Island Whitefish” never get old, around Manhattan by water is truly beautiful. Maybe it’s because the summer vegetation covers up some of the urban eyesores, but the water, the greenery and the architecture from the boat are really gorgeous.

There are three different events for the 2012 paddle – the recreational SEA Paddle, the Elite Paddle, which is the race, and the West Side Paddle, which is a non-competitive, 4-mile paddle.

There are several guys stroking around Manhattan this year with ties to LBI, the most obvious being Ship Bottom’s Billy Mehl, an engineer at Lakehurst Naval Base. If you’ve been sitting on the beach in the evenings or weekends, you likely saw Mehl out training on the Atlantic.

He took second in the Men’s Elite last year to California’s Rob Rojas, a game warden by trade, and one of the best paddlers in the world. He is sponsored by O’Neill and set a new NYC paddle record at 3:56.

“I’m trying to put in longer training sessions when I can. It’s tough with a full schedule. It’s hard to know what to expect from the pro paddlers since this is one of the few events on the East Coast that brings them out, and I haven’t made it out west to compete,” said Mehl.

Mark Temme, who grew up in Surf City, now lives in NYC and does SUP tours and lessons on the Hudson for New York Kayak Co. He has beaten Mehl three years in a row in the Dean Randazzo Cancer Foundation Paddle for a Cause Continued on Page 58, Sec. 2

A PAIR TO REMEMBER: Marc ‘Skaggs’ Magnani (above) is a percussion phenom of arms and legs in nonstop motion. Cara Cartney (below) is a starry-eyed songstress with a wide vocal range.

Michael Molinaro

P

ercussionist Marc “Skaggs” Magnani and guitar-playing chanteuse Cara Cartney, the duo who entertained the cozy bar at Doyle’s Pour House in Tuckerton Saturday night, are a match made in music heaven, a match that was struck about a year ago at an open mike in Bucks County. Right away they found their different musical interests complemented each other, and the management at that bar asked them to play a few gigs together, Magnani explained.

Self-taught and hardworking are two traits Cartney and Magnani share that infuse their onstage chemistry with honesty and authenticity.

Magnani admires Cartney’s varying tastes – “they’re all fun,” he said.

Cartney said she likes to branch out in whatever direction the music takes her, whether that happens to be oldies, Outkast or TLC. “I really dig the set list in this act,” Magnani said.

Cartney is heavily influenced by the Beatles, and Paul McCartney in particular, thanks to the musical example set by her dad.

“If it’s good, I like to play,” she said with a shrug.

After a few initial trial gigs, they started playing together regularly and have since developed a following built on their repertoire of delightfully unexpected tunes, including Carole King’s “Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow?,” Neil Young’s “Old Man” and Tegan and Sara’s “Living Room.” Cartney’s sultry voice, with her wide range, lends itself to a rendition of “Fever” that would make Peggy Lee proud.

As for Magnani, he takes the art of percussion to new heights with an array of instruments that includes a conga, a djembe (a West African

IN CHARACTER: Thanks to the quick action of a keen-eyed, iPhone-wielding reporter on the scene, these crime-fighting heroes were captured on camera, flexing, posing and showcasing their powers at the Sea Shell on Sunday, while the unflappable Ted Hammock and Matt Fisher never faltered in their pursuit of delivering acoustic goodness to patrons of the poolside Tiki Bar. Captain America, Robin the Boy Wonder, Spiderman and Aquaman were participants in Superhero Sunday, which should have made all of Beach Haven rest a little easier.

drum), two foot pedals with a high hat and tambourine, cowbell, crash and custom splash cymbals – oh, and a washboard that he plays wearing special gloves with some sort of taps or picks on the fingertips.

His love of the drums took root when he was a devout follower of the Grateful Dead, going

to shows and watching the Dead and thinking, “I want to do that.” “So, I spent a lot of years in my room …,” he said, and the result is what the crowd sees any given night he performs. The joy is unmistakable on his face and in his body language as he whales away on every object and surface within reach.

“I love getting to see everybody having a good time,” Cartney said. “I like to get them involved.” Good music is a powerful mood enhancer, in her experience, both for those who play it and for those who listen. Even on those days when the motivation to get up and entertain might not be automatic, she always fi nds, before too long, that “the music lifts you up,” she said.

On this particular weekend, the second set of the night lifted the already-high spirits of the friendly pub atmosphere even higher, bringing Nirvana’s “About a Girl” (still sounding fresh, almost 20 years after its original release) and the Beatles’ “Something in the Way She Moves” (always a pleasure to hear).

The Killers’ “Somebody Told Me” and Foster the People’s “Pumped Up Kicks” gave the modern edge.

The passion that comes across is genuine, which makes the hard work of a traveling musician worthwhile, Magnani said – “just like anybody that’s really into what they’re doing.”

In the original-music realm, Cartney works

on laying down some tracks at home when time and inspiration are in her favor. “It’s cool to see it all come together,” she said.

Their creative take on existing songs is what sets them apart as performers, in Magnani’s opinion. Some bands, he said, “their goal is to sound like that album; our goal is ‘that’s a cool song.’”

Together, they are a prime example of open mike culture at its best, when the collaboration of talented players results in a winning combination. The open mike provides a vital opportunity to meet and experiment with fellow musicians and to get immediate feedback from an audience, which creates a fan base, which further cultivates the music. In that way it’s like a workshop for students of the music craft. It’s also an exercise in sheer endurance.

“I work my b---s off at those things,” Magnani said frankly. “I can feel my heartbeat in my hands.” When the energy is right and the crowd is responsive, different players jump in and out of the sets, and the jamming is just nonstop.

Magnani also plays in a project called the Soul Rebels, which he defi ned as reggaecrossover, a la Jason Mraz.

Count on the duo of Cara and Skaggs to return to Doyle’s another weekend soon, this summer and into the fall.

FRESH BATCH: Judges-in-training tasted versions of this World Champion chili Saturday.

By MICHAEL MOLINARO t’s 2 p.m. on a Saturday and I’m in a classroom full of people, taking an oath that swears allegiance to “The Mighty Capsicum” to execute the powers and trusts reposed in me as an International Chili Society Certified Chili Judge, so help me God. Four hours earlier, I was being led through the back hallway of the Community Medical Center in Toms River to the High Tide Café by administrative services director and twice N.J. chili cook-off state champion Thomas Yanisko, who organized the first class to become a certified ICS chili cook-off judge.

“I was wondering if I should bring my peppers from my garden,” said the particularly inquisitive Patti Pearson, 65, of Manchester, who perhaps mistook the class to become a certified chili cook-off judge with a course on actually cooking chili.

My first thought was Why are we in a hospital? Is the heat index of what we’re about to sample so high that it is necessary to have an emergency room next door on standby?

The tongue-and-cheek deity referenced in the oath above refers to the genus of pepper plants that can contain capsaicin, the chemical that adds the burning sensation to chili.

We met ICS Grandmaster Steve Falkowski, who earned that rank by competing in the ICS World Championships for 11 years, winning the coveted, heavy bronze bowl trophy and a $25,000 grand prize in 1997.

“Cooks don’t do it to get the money but to get the world championship,” said Falkowski in the closest voice approximation to Harvey Keitel I’ve ever heard in my life.

Cooks can earn eligibility for the contest in several ways, including winning state championships, excepting the landmass-challenged states of Delaware and Rhode Island. Maybe they need more kitchen space.

Chili Judging Continued from Page 55, Sec. 2 Falkowski won a state cook-off in Huddy Park in Toms River, edging out the competition in a tiebreaker to head to Bally’s Casino in Reno, Nev. and earn the title. The World Championship will be held this year at Magic Island in Charleston, W.Va., in October, representing a $300,000 commitment from the city.

Falkowski was in Toms River with his wife, Audrey, who often has judged at officially sanctioned ICS cook-offs. Both have been overseeing the annual Toms River chili cook-off in May of each year for several years.

Chili cook-off judge certification is something new for the ICS, a volunteer-based organization that holds around 400 sanctioned cookoffs a year and has raised about $100 million for charity since its inception. Normally a prospective judge simply shows up and attends a half-hour meeting. On Sunday, the 10 classmates each spent $95 to earn the certification and badge. Mine should arrive at my home shortly.

The Falkowskis have met cooks from as far as Germany and the Cayman Islands and even a chef from Australia, who claimed to use kangaroo meat in his recipe.

All recipes are prepared on site, besides grinding your spices, mixing your spices and cutting your meat.

They cook for between three and four hours before it’s time to present cups to judges.

The Falkowskis began by teaching us what an ICS chili is and isn’t. It’s not barbecue, it’s not a tomato meat sauce, it’s not Sloppy Joe, it’s not beef stew. It’s chili.

“This isn’t ‘Joe’s Super Bowl chili,’” said Steve.

I learned that the “Mike’s Economy Chili” I had been perfecting for years – a Tex-Mex made from some of the less-expensive products found at ShopRite – is not chili at all, at least in the Traditional Red sense. That variety is the main category of four that cooks compete in at sanctioned ICS events, and what we would be judging as a class on Saturday.

No beans or pasta are allowed in a traditional red, which focuses on any type of meat one desires, mixed with peppers and spices that one seeks to permeate perfectly throughout the batch. No condiments like sour cream for red or green, as that’s considered a “marker,” and anything that identifies your chili could lead to voting discrepancies and is considered cheating.

“If you have to cheat at a chili cook-off, just get a life,” said Falkowski.

Cattle drivers and cowboys of the Old West were the ones who added beans as a cheap way to extend the meal to the heavily spiced meat that yielded a longer shelf life. Cue the fireside scene from “Blazing Saddles.”

Other categories are Chili Verde, made with green chiles and pork more often than not; Salsa; and People’s Choice.

We learned the history of chili itself, dating back to Canary Islanders who transported the chile to Texas in 1723. The majority of chiles used in the United States today for chili come from New Mexico – a little town called Hatch, where they grow each year for miles on either side of the Rio Grande. Upon harvest, the town

holds a festival for two weeks and the aroma goes for miles as the peppers are roasted to get the skins off.

We learn of the history of the ICS and its legends, including Texan Carroll “Cobra” Shelby, who patented the World Champion name and was a racecar legend in the 1950s. He was the oldest living double transplant (kidney and heart) until he passed away earlier this year at 89.

The organization started after Shelby held a chili cook-off between spice magnate Wick Fowler and New York writer H. Allen Smith at his Terlingua Ranch in 1967. The event was a mess of drunken decadence with no clear champion, forcing the creation of an organization with rules and regulations abounding.

“In my eyes as a former cook, it’s prestigious to be a judge,” began Falkowski, who once kicked out a group of judges from the N.J. state competition. “One year they came drunk and rowdy, and I threw them out. They’ve never been back since.”

He went on to explain the litany of other rules involved when judging.

No facial expressions when tasting. Stoic poker face focused on taste; no emotion. Don’t touch the bowl.

Don’t bring large personal items: you’re judging chili, not sitting on an airplane.

A number system below each cup is the only thing that reveals whose chili one is tasting, hence the “no touching the cup” rule. You have to give it a good stir, though, to judge the thickness and consistency and to “find that $20 bill on the bottom,” as a running cook-off joke goes.

Some 16,000 tasting spoons are used at the World Championships.

Double-dipping a spoon in the same cup is a huge party foul. Even when tasting salsa, there is a strict “Don’t dip your chip” rule that requires judges to spoon a given salsa sample onto tortilla chips so as not to ruin the consistency of the salsa.

The chili itself should have a nice, reddish-brown color and a good texture and bite to the meat, which at its best should melt in your mouth. No one flavor should be overwhelming.

Spiciness should be not too hot or too mild. Is it over-powdered? Does it have “front heat,” or is it “hot in the back”?

Keep the palate cleansed with grapes and flour tortillas dipped in sour cream between samples. At a sanctioned cook-off, beer provided would also do the same. “Take small bites of chili and small swigs of beer,” said Falkowski. “You don’t want to get full. And you will get full.”

Don’t sample the People’s Choice.

That’s for the people, not the judges. It will contaminate your palate.

All judges sample cups in the same order and direction. The first sample tasted must be re-sampled upon trying each batch as your opinion may have been changed drastically. Marks are made on official judging sheets, and the process of elimination cuts the competition down to a top three, chosen by each judge, which earns competitors points.

You also must write legible, constructive comments. “If you say it tastes like dog food, the first thing we’re going to ask is how you know what dog food tastes like,” said Audrey before revealing two notebooks accounting for 16 years’ worth of recipes, comments from judges, and adjustments to each subsequent recipe that was made by the Falkowskis.

The ultimate sin is to knocketh a cook’s cup over, as once the cups have been submitted to the judges’ table, it is unfair to other competitors to allow a refill.

The seriousness of the judging comes from the understanding of the personal sacrifice each cook makes in food cost, travel expenses and much more.

If an event becomes known for judging inconsistencies – as the annual Toms River cook-off did for a time before the Falkowskis took over – chili cooks will stay away.

With all that being said, judging comes down to one simple question, according to Falkowski: “Which would you like to take home and eat for the rest of your life?”

For the tasting portion of the class, the Falkowskis whipped up a few gallons of their world champion recipe and then doctored nine of the 10 cups with some sort of modification.

Our class was the first to pick out the world-class recipe; in fact, half of the class gave it first place to help it win with 17 points. I was not one of those folks. In fact, my notes were:

SPICE IS RIGHT: (Clockwise from top left) The ICS handbook was given to students of a judge certification course on Saturday. World Champion Steve Falkowski leads the class through tasting. ICS expectations are outlined. “no aroma, bland, soupy.”

Perhaps I’m not cut out for this judging gig. I try not to judge people in real life. My favorite was one in which vinegar was added. What can I say? I’m a Philly cheese steak kind of guy.

Second and third place went to spin-offs of that chili with added salt and heat, respectively. “Too much salt

and heat are OK,” said Falkowski.

Both were my second- and thirdplace choices. Classmates’ tongues were sharp, picking out when liquid smoke or oregano was added. I was proud when I accurately commented that sample #8 had too much cumin.

Fiction Continued from Page 45, Sec. 2 “There was no Google back then, so I took a good two years and was still maintaining WordsWorth at the time and raising children.

So there was not a whole lot of time, but I kept plugging away. I used the Philadelphia Library. I don’t speak French, but what I found fascinated me. Yes, Antoinette partied hearty, but why? Her husband couldn’t consummate the marriage for seven years, and she was only 14 years old when she married. She was the youngest child of the empress of Austria and was raised with a permissive attitude, unheard of in that day. So she arrived at 14, at the French court that was absolutely solidified with centuries of protocol.

She came with a born gift for mimicry, a sharp wit and an attitude that hey, I’m an attractive newcomer, and I’ll do as I please. She wanted to ride astride and women didn’t do that then, but because she was pretty, she got her way. She had charisma; that word came up again and again in my research.

“Anyway, my friend the art director said, ‘You’re always yakking about writing.’ And I had

trouble with plots, so he said, ‘There’s a plot.’

“So I started the research and completed the first draft, 1,000 pages, and actually found an agent. I had that fantasy come true! You give them the first 50 pages and she called the next day – it blew my socks off. I was on the moon and beyond. The next thing she did was order a rewrite.

“I was living in Medford at the time and I rented a place in Surf City on my own dime, and I did rewrite the book in 30 days. I gave it to her in ’89 and as you know, books have trends. Historic fiction always sells, but it also has trends. At that time because the princess had kept a diary, 80 percent of the book was in diary form. And I researched the original volume and found the princess’ secretary, Catherine, had kept the diaries and went to England and had them published. So I made the whole back story about her search for identity, and I got very fond of her (as a character). And also, someone had to live beyond the guillotine. That was Catherine, a major character, as was the princess Louisa and, of course Tonya, as Marie Antoinette liked to be known.

“Anyway, the agent re-titled the book Fleur de Lis and my instinct was ‘Wait a minute; people are not going to know what the book is about.’ But she was the expert and who was I? Then she wanted me to add some eroticism and I was comfortable with that, so there are some juicy bits in there. (A love scene between the queen and the princess makes this an adult read.)

“Anyway, two years and 13 publishers later…

I had great rejection letters. It was never rejected because of the writing. Almost to a person they said, ‘Send us your next one; what’s your second book about? Marie Antoinette is just not popular now. It’s too intelligent to be total trash and it’s a little too trashy to be literary fiction.’

“Harper and Row kept it for nine months, like a pregnancy. ... Then they wanted a script treatment. I had a full-time job and a part-time job and I got up at 5 a.m. to work on it an hour minimum before I had to get it together, but I did it. After eight months, they said they liked the book and the script treatment, but their budget for historical fiction was done for that year.

“This is why it’s so wonderful to do this,” Sutton said as she held up her Kindle. “Because you can do this yourself.

“The agent said why don’t you do another

book, they want another book, and I said this book is my life, I don’t know that I can do another one. I just couldn’t take it far enough; I had all my eggs in that basket. I moved to Florida and worked in Borders, surrounded by books, happy as a clam.

“When I decided to self-publish through Xlibris, I did a third rewrite and got rid of Catherine. I had to make the book shorter. I managed to sell a thousand copies; virtually all of it was word of mouth, people who took the time to actually read it.

“Then came Kindle. I became aware of the fact that e-books were starting to be seen in mainstream magazines. An author I followed a long time went into e-publishing and created a consortium of e-published authors because they were selling so many books. So the more I looked into, the more it seemed like the price could be made such that it could be made available to anyone. And practically everyone has a smartphone or has one of these (an e-reader).

Because I was self-published, I retained the rights. Xlibris would make it into an e-book, but they were going to charge $9.95 to download it. And so I did my research. Stephen King is only $2.99 to download, and people like myself fall into a different category. I can’t charge anyone more than $1.99 because of who I am, an unknown author, so for me to ask for $2.99 or $3.99 is out of step. So it’s been available as an e-book since April.”

At Amazon’s Kindle store, search the words “Antoinette” and “Sutton” and get a multi-chapter free sample. The book can be downloaded for 99 cents, or it’s free if you have an Amazon membership.

Of that 99 cents, Sutton gets to keep 33 cents for her royalty.

“It’s historic fiction about the woman who was the last queen of France and the woman who was her friend to the end, and all the other characters that were involved in their lives. It’s ‘character-driven’ so it could have been about any two women, but it’s historically correct. I have all the details, the language; some of the dialogue comes from diaries.”

Sutton is at work on her second novel, which she also plans to e-publish. “It’s the autobiographical one you’re supposed to write first; I waited until Social Security,” she said. * patjohnson@thesandpaper.net

Then there’s Billy Webster of Ship Bottom, one of the best longboarders on LBI, who won the Prone division in 2010. Mehl has been training with Digger Atlee and Terry Deakyne, who are also preparing for the excruciating ordeal again. When you start talking about times and who fi nishes where, you tend to forget that these guys are just gutting it out for 26.5 miles. Think about that. Good luck to all the boys.

The latest project at Swell Colors Gallery in Haven Beach is about to be unveiled. It’s a stained glass series called “Primavera,” 92 nature-inspired pieces created by artist Mary Tantillo to coincide with each day of spring.

All the windows will be on display at a reception open to the public on Aug. 16 at 5 p.m. with appetizers and live music.

And I know I’ve been mentioning this every column for weeks now, but this Saturday, Aug. 18, is the Alliance for a Living Ocean LBI Longboard Classic. Yes, it’s fi nally here. All classic longboards, and there’s a skimboard event, too. And the reason that I’m bringing it up is that it’s a local nonprofit organization that benefits all who enjoy a clean ocean and bay. And in these lean economic years, such organizations have it pretty tough. ALO is relying on this contest to get it through the winter. If paying a couple bucks to go out and surf an old longboard with some Island characters is too much to ask, then I don’t know what to tell you. ’Nuff said. And bring your cross-step skills – monkey hopping is frowned upon. *

Chili Judging Continued from Page 56, Sec. 2 champions.

The most popular meat isn’t rattlesnake, but tri-tip beef, cubed.

Onion and garlic powder is preferred over the chopped real thing for more consistency, and to lessen chances of an off flavor from a bad onion or clove of garlic.

Also, chunks of onions and corn, etc., affect texture too much.

Added sweetness may win in Alabama, but not the World Championship.

The basic ratio rule of thumb for good chili is one pound of meat for every tablespoon of cumin and three tablespoons of chili powder.

Falkowski’s recipe stood out in 1997 for being slightly spicier than the rest, and although he scored most of his points with second and third places rather than firsts, he was mentioned on every ballot that year.

His recipe is now owned by Jack Daniel’s, Hunt’s and Tabasco and can appear on a label at anytime. It also hints at some of his recipe’s secrets.

“They get very protective,” Falkowski said of cooks’ secret recipes. “It’s like any red wine.

You could sample a zillion of them and they’re not the same. It’s the same with spices. There is not one set chili spice blend that people use.

They’ll tell you what they use, but they may not tell you exactly where they got that spice. That took years of work,” he said.

Falkowski was not offended that I judged his world champion chili in a negative light.

Before leaving, I tried the award-winning #4 a second time and found it savory, with just the right amount of heat to raise a smile.

“The bowl that should have won did win, and that’s all that matters as judges.”

“I learned something,” Yanisko said of the event he organized. “You never stop being a student. Because just when you think you have it down, you get your ass kicked.”

He and others from the class are headed to the next ICS cook-off, in West Windsor in a couple of weeks. The full schedule can be found at chilicookoff.com.

All I know is these dudes are serious. I left educated, baffled and certified, but most importantly, my belly was full. * michaelmolinaro@thesandpaper.net

Hull Hurries to Face British

F

ollowing the USS Constitution’s great escape from five British warships off the Jersey Shore in July 1812, her captain, Isaac Hull, had informed the secretary of the Navy on the 21st that he was disobeying orders and sailing for Boston instead of New York City.

The secretary wrote to Hull on July 28 and 29, ordering Hull to turn over command of his ship.

“On the arrival of the Constitution in port, I have ordered Commodore Bainbridge to take command of her. … You will accordingly deliver up to him the command and proceed to this place.”

By this time, however, Hull was in Boston and being treated as a hero.

“Captain Hull finding that his friends in Boston are correctly informed of his situation when chased by the British squadron off New York, and that they are good enough to give him more credit for having escaped it than he ought to claim, takes this opportunity of requesting them to transfer their good wishes to Lieutenant Morris and the other brave officers, and the crew under his command for the very great exertions and prompt attention to his orders, while the enemy were in chase. Captain Hull has great pleasure in saying that notwithstanding the length of the chase, and the officers and crew being deprived of sleep, and allowed but little refreshment during the time, not a murmur was heard to escape them.”

Hull had no intention of resting on his laurels or, for that matter, waiting for orders; he wrote the secretary on July 28.

“Should I proceed to Sea without your further orders, and it should not meet your approbation, I shall be very unhappy, for I pray you to be assured in doing so I shall act as at this moment I believe you would order me to do.”

As the Constitution was taking on supplies and adding to her crew, an event took place that is still being debated today. Lucy Brewer, a young farm girl from Plymouth, Mass., who had become pregnant at 16 and worked in a Boston brothel, wrote in 1817, “Passing through Fish Street, I entered a house where was a public rendezvous for the enlistment of men to go on board one of the United States’ frigates then lying in the harbour, and shortly bound on a cruise.

“Encouraged by the active part which one of my sex had taken in the late American war, without exposing her sex, I viewed this as a favourable opportunity to try my fortune in the public service of my country, provided I could avoid the search which new recruits must generally undergo – this I succeeded in doing by an artful stratagem, and entered as a marine, received my advance and clothing, and the next day was taken on board!”

Hull’s haste paid off, and the Constitution was ready for sea on Aug. 2. Before any new orders arrived, Hull sent a final note to the secretary before sailing. “…to remain here any time longer I am confident that the Ship would be blockaded in by a Superiour force, and probably would not get out for months,” As the Constitution set sail, the five ships of the British squadron were searching the Atlantic looking for the American ships of Commodore John Rogers, which had left New York in June.

By early August, one of the ships, the frigate HMS Guerriere commanded by Capt. James Dacres, was ordered back to Halifax, Nova Scotia, for supplies and repairs. Dacres took the opportunity to act independently, and on the 10th, he captured the American brig Betsey, sending her to Canada as a prize and keeping her captain as a prisoner of war. Then he took the ship John Adams, bound for New York, but because she carried a British license issued before the war, he let her proceed. But first he sent a note to the Americans in her papers.

“Capt. Dacres, commander of his Britannic Majesty’s frigate Guerriere of forty-four guns, presents his compliments to commodore Rodgers, of the United States frigate President, and will be very happy to meet him, or any other American frigate of equal force to the President, off Sandy Hook, for the purpose of having a few minutes tête-à-tête.”

The Constitution was also taking some merchant ships as prizes. According to Moses Smith, an enlisted gunner on board, “We continued our cruise, taking an occasional vessel from the enemy, and setting her on fire. Many a fine large ship was thus destroyed by the Constitution. But we always saved the crews, and living animals.

I do not remember that a goat, dog, fowl or cat was thus burnt up.”

According to Lucy Brewer, “Having received information, that the British squadron were off the Grand Bank, and not far distant, our brave commander determined to change his cruising ground; he accordingly stood to the southward. On the 17th, he was informed by the commanders of an American privateer, (that a British ship of war had been seen the day before, standing to the southeast, and that she could not be far off. Our intrepid commander immediately made sail, intending, if possible, to fall in with her.”

At about 10 a.m. Aug. 19, a sail was sighted in the distance. As the Constitution closed to identify the mysterious ship, Smith wrote, “But before all hands could be called, there was a general rush on deck. The word had passed like lightning from man to man; and all who could be spared, came flocking up like pigeons from a net bed. From the spar deck to the gun deck, from that to the berth deck, every man was roused and on his feet. All eyes were turned in the direction of the strange sail, and quick as thought studding-sails were out, fore and aft. The noble frigate fairly bounded over the billows, as we gave her a rap full, and spread her broad and tall wings to the gale.”

As the ships closed, Smith said, “in one of her topsails we read these words: ‘NOT THE LITTLE BELT.’ We understood this to mean that the ship we were now approaching was not the ‘Little Belt,’ which had been previously attacked. But we knew that very well; and the subsequent events proved that they might have saved themselves the trouble of telling us of it.

We saw it was the vessel we wanted to meet, not the ‘Little Belt,’ but the big Guerriere, of thirty-nine guns.”

Military historian Stephen Budiansky wrote, “The Guerriere spotted the American ship almost simultaneously. On deck Dacres handed Orne his glass and asked if it was an American or French frigate. Orne said he thought American for sure, but Dacres replied that it ‘acted most too bold to be an American.’ Dacres paused, and then added, ‘The better he behaves, the more honor we shall gain by taking him,’ even remarking to Orne that he would ‘be made for life’ as the first British captain to capture an American frigate. The British crew facetiously hung a barrel of molasses in the netting for their prisoners-to-be: Yankees were said to like a drink of molasses and water known as switchel.

Dacres allowed 10 impressed Americans in the crew to go below, and turning politely to Orne, captain of the Betsey, and asked if he would like to go below as well and help the surgeon tend to any wounded from the battle – ‘as I suppose you do not wish to fight against your own countrymen.’”

The battle the secretary of the Navy had tried so hard to prevent was about to take place. The men on the Constitution recognized this was one of the five ships that had chased them, but this time it would be a fair fight. * Next Week: The legend is born. tpfcjf@comcast.net
