If yOU GO

PITTSTON — If you’re still debating whether you can complete the obstacles in the inaugural R3 OPS mud run at the Northeast Fairgrounds in Pittston tomorrow, Nicole Farber says, you’ve already answered the question. “Yes, you can do it,” Farber said. “If you’re at that moment and you’re questioning it, then the thought should be to go for it.” Farber, 34, of Dallas, is the CEO and race director of the first-ever mud run with options. The name R3 OPS is derived from the three difficulty options each obstacle will present – refined, rugged and rogue. Obstacles will be clearly marked throughout the race, and there’s always an option to go around one that’s a bit too difficult. Presenting obstacles with a variety of difficulty levels opens the field to a broader range of athletes. “We’re trying to pull in all different athletic abilities,” Farber said. “Refined would be for someone who’s maybe never done a mud run before or they just want to do something different to challenge themselves. The rugged is for the more average individual, maybe for people who’ve done the Warrior Dash or the Dirty Girl Run. The rogues are kind of extreme athletes.” By the end of last week, the event had more than 500 registered participants. Organizers are keeping registration open until tomorrow, but race memorabilia is available on a firstcome, first-served basis. The race kicks off at 8 a.m. with an Extreme Rogue Wave and cash prizes of $1,000 each available to top male and female finishers in the elite competition. Extreme Rogue competitors must complete the course in one hour, finish all rogue obstacles and compete in an additional “Extreme Challenge” that will pit participants against a series of six military-style obstacles including the popular jumping bars from “American Ninja Warrior,” a 20-foot rope climb and a 12-foot climbing wall. So far, Farber said the field of extreme athletes vying for the cash prize is small. She’s especially encouraging “the extreme girls”

What: R3 OPS, “the mud run with options” When: 9 a.m.-5 p.m. tomorrow. Extreme Rogue wave at 8 a.m. for cash prizes Where: Northeast Fairgrounds, Pittston Cost: $85 for runners; $5 for spectators. Money raised beneﬁts the Stephanie Jallen Paralympic Fund and the Pittston Township Volunteer Fire Company. More info: www.r3ops.com, www. facebook.com/r3ops

to throw their hats in the ring. Farber, who was inspired to start her own mud run after competing in the Dirty Girl mud run, said she expects she would complete many of the rugged obstacles if she weren’t ensuring a smooth event on Saturday. “There are some that I can do rogue, but I would have to say I’m a ‘rugged,’ ” Farber said with a laugh.

The ability to choose your own path is one she hopes will attract locals to the event. “In a lot of these other races, you have to complete each obstacle,” Farber said. “This lets you do whatever you want. It’s always better when somebody presents choices.” Unlike traveling races like Dirty Girl or the Warrior Dash that make a brief impact during their stops in Northeastern Pennsylvania, this event, Farber hopes, will use the talents of local businesses to beneﬁt local individuals and organizations. Money raised from the $5 spectator fee will beneﬁt the Stephanie Jallen Paralympic Fund, which will help the Harding athlete reach the 2014 Paralympic Games in Sochi, Russia, where she is expected to compete in alpine-skiing events. The $5 parking fee will be donated to the Pittston Township Volunteer Fire Company. Various aspects of the run are inspired by Farber’s own personality. A Native

The course is expected to last about 90 minutes depending on your running speed and the level of obstacle difficulty you choose. Heats will begin each half hour from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., and several heats already have sold out.

Meet the new and improved Third Friday CHRISTOPHER J. HUGHES chughes@timesleader.com

WILKES-BARRE — The revitalized effort to support the arts community with a monthly art walk in Wilkes-Barre has picked up steam. Third Friday Wilkes-Barre has its second major event tonight, after a successful relaunch in June. Three new venues dot the map, bringing the total number of participating galleries and nontraditional venues to 19, Third Friday marketing committee cochair Chris Kelly said. Third Friday art walks never really ended, Kelly said, but publicity for the event and participation from restaurants, bars and other atypical venues had dwindled in recent years. “It’s been in existence for about the past six years, but the last few years it’s been only a couple of the traditional galleries participating. It’s been around, but it’s just been simmering,” Kelly said. “We knew as a group that if we gave it the attention and got the right people involved that this could really take off.” The group also has taken some notes from organizers at First Friday Scranton, the popular art walk in Lackawanna County.

IF YOU GO What: Third Friday Wilkes-Barre art walk When: 5-8 tonight Where: 19 venues in downtown Wilkes-Barre Cost: Free More info: www. thirdfridaywb.com “They’ve been great about offering information and ideas about how they got to where they’re at,” Kelly said. Kelly, who is also the development director at the Osterhout Library, said library ofﬁcials were pleased the event was getting a second life. “The library did participate in past years, and then we kind of got away from it about two years ago when it was dwindling. We knew the potential, and we want people to come and experience the library outside of coming in to get a book,” he said. The Osterhout is “almost like a gallery itself” thanks to generous donations from the Friends of the Library. Aside from the permanent collection, Kelly said, the library hopes to welcome visiting artists, poets and authors during future Third Friday events. Children’s

A tortured premise but a worthwhile message RAFER GUZMAN

McClatchy-Tribune News Service

When it comes to animated movies, all the good ideas, and even the not-so-good ones, seem to have been taken. The rat who becomes a chef, the supervillain who turns good, the zoo animals stuck in the wild — they’ve been done. How about a snail who enters the Indianapolis 500? Because snails are slow and race cars are fast, get it? All right, so you’re not bowled over. Nevertheless, “Turbo” has just enough heart to make it to the winner’s circle. Like its hero, “Turbo” gets off to an achingly slow start. The ﬁlm takes too long establishing its parallel world, in which snails are beaten-down workers at a tomato garden called The Plant. Theo (the voice of Ryan Reynolds) is the misﬁt with a need for speed; his older brother, Chet (an excellent Paul Giamatti), tries to impart wisdom. “The sooner you accept the dull, miserable reality of your existence,” Chet says, “the happier you’ll be.” In a mishap that borrows a page from “Spider-Man,” Theo

IF YOU GO What: “Turbo” ◆◆½ Starring: Voices of Ryan Reynolds, Paul Giamatti, Michael Pena Directed by: David Soren Running time: 96 minutes Rated: PG for action is transformed into Turbo, with headlight eyes and the ability to push the 200 mph mark. But the story still hasn’t begun: First, we must meet the daydreaming Tito (Michael Pena), who works at Dos Bros Tacos with his pessimistic older brother, Angelo (Luis Guzman). A snail-racing hobbyist, Tito makes quite a discovery in Turbo. Things get even more cluttered by several other racing snails (Samuel L. Jackson, Snoop Lion, Maya Rudolph and others) who look and talk like the “Fast & Furious” cast. Underneath all the chatter, though, “Turbo” delivers a message worth hearing. “No dream is too big and no dreamer too small,” the French Canadian racing champ Guy Gagne (Bill

A fast snail? Yes, you’ll meet one in ‘Turbo.’

Hader) says. As you might guess, Gagne turns out to be an espresso-sucking jerk, but his words still ring true. “Turbo” deserves credit for its multiracial characters — it’s

set in ethnically diverse Van Nuys, Calif. — for occasionally sharp direction by David Soren and for casting Ken Jeong as the voice of Kim-Ly, a cranky woman. The climactic race

sequence can be a little queasymaking, given the squishy possibilities, but it’s also a fairly rousing closer to the ﬁlm. It’s hard not to root this little gastropod over the ﬁnish line.

assassin, Brian Cox reprises his Russian spy boss. And David Thewlis shows up as a sadistic spy and snooty wine-lover. It’s a movie of hilarious reaction shots — little moments where the mere expression on Parker, Mirren, Hopkins or Malkovich’s face sells the gag — and scores of jokes. Malkovich is a laugh riot — watch how he pizzaschools a Russian whose Moscow Papa John’s they take over while breaking into the Kremlin. The car chases are played for exciting laughs. Sarah dives into an ancient French Citroen deux chevaux and shouts, “I’ve SO got this!” even when she SO doesn’t. And the ﬁghts are both credible and, in the case of the skilled Mr. Lee, INcredible. It’s all ground we’ve sort of covered before and things do tend to drag before the too-violent third act turns too-bloody. But “RED 2” goes down easily, from Malkovich’s demented moments of relationship advice to Dame Helen’s tender and amusing “Hitchcock” reunion with Sir Anthony. There’s a knowing twinkle in their eyes, and in everybody else’s.

They bicker, emotionally blackmail each other, kiss and make up. Because they have history. But Bruce Willis and John Malkovich aren’t the “real” couple at the heart of “RED 2,” the action comedy sequel about retired government assassins. They’re just part of a love triangle, one that Mary Louise Parker completes. Her character Sarah may be Frank’s (Willis’s) dizzy but decreasingly naive lady love, but Marvin (Malkovich) is the one who gullibly ﬁlls her in on this bloody if exciting life they’ve led and somehow continue to lead. And he’s the one who gives her guns. Frank is incredulous. But as the bullets ﬂy and the plot thickens, once mildmannered Sarah gets into the spirit of things entirely too quickly. “Let’s face it, Columbo,” she purrs at him. “Things were getting a little stale.” The joy of “RED” was seeing a cast packed with Oscar winners (Helen Mirren, Morgan Freeman, Richard Dreyfuss, Ernest Borgnine)

and very good actors (Malkovich, Parker, Brian Cox and Karl Urban) flesh out and class up a Bruce Willis action film. “Codgers make the coolest killers” was its motto. And if anything, this “Retired, Extremely Dangerous” sequel ups the ante. There’s a new acronym — “ICE: Incarcerated, Cannot Execute.” They’ve replaced killed-off Oscar winners with Anthony Hopkins as an addled old scientist and Catherine ZetaJones as a Russian agent and one-time lady love of Frank’s. And the change in directors to comedy-specialist Dean Parisot (“Galaxy Quest”) means there’s a laugh a minute amid all this mayhem. Somebody’s Wikileaked info about a secret bomb project named “Nightshade” that Frank and Marvin were linked to decades before. Now they need to survive the hitmen sent to get them. Frank and Marvin also have to find the mad scientist who built the bomb (Hopkins) to clear their names. Frank drags Sarah along to Paris, Moscow and London as they do. Mirren returns as her droller-than-droll MI6

THE GUIDE

‘The Conjuring’serves up a demonic horror history lesson RoGER MooRE

McClatchy-Tribune News Service

Sadie knows. The dog always knows not to go into the haunted house. But since this was 1971, and the world, much less Rhode Island’s Perron family, had not seen “The Exorcist” and the generations of ultra-realistic horror movies and “Ghost Hunters” TV shows that followed, they didn’t heed the dog’s warnings. The Perrons were in for it. “The Conjuring” is like a prequel to 40 years of demonic possession thrillers, a movie about the original ghost hunters, Ed and Lorraine Warren, and an early case this “Amityville Horror” couple found so terrifying they never talked about it — “until now!” James Wan, who made his horror bones with “Saw” and outgrew torture porn with the superbly spooky “Insidious,” reunites with his “Insidious” star Patrick Wilson for this solid and sometimes hairraising thriller about a haunted house, the family of seven haunted by it and the can-do couple summoned by the Perrons. The Warrens lecture at colleges, show film of inexplicable supernatural events and collect the actual possessed artifacts that they weed out among all the false alarms that are too often just creaking pipes and settling floorboards. Lorraine (Vera Farmiga) is clairvoyant, which means she sees what those truly spooked see and feels what they feel. Ed (Wilson) may be credulous, but he’s the pragmatist — applying 1960s and ’70s pre-digital technology to his search for “proof” of what they’re dealing with. These cases have three phases, he lectures — “infestation, oppression and possession.” He has a ready answer for dealing with their problem when Carolyn and Roger Perron (Lili Taylor and Ron Livingston) invite them over. Are their children baptized? “We’re not really a churchgoing family.” “You might want to rethink that.” The humor in “The Conjuring” comes from the naivete of the victims. Carolyn doesn’t recognize her bruise marks as demonic injuries. Their five daughters don’t know that their invisible friends, their sleepwalking companions and the mysterious bumps and

Who are you going to call when your house seems haunted? Perhaps the world-weary Warren family?

IF YoU Go What: “The Conjuring” ◆◆ ½ Starring: Vera Farmiga, Patrick Wilson, Lili Taylor, Ron Livingston Directed by: James Wan Running time: 112 minutes Rated: R for disturbing violence and terror claps that ruin their games of “Hide and Clap” are ghosts. And there’s an amusing gee-whiz-let’sinvent-this-trade — ghost hunting — about the Warrens. Wan and his screenwriters serve up some classic scary situations and provide a decent jolt or three in the “sealed-off basement,” the ghostly shadow in the mirror of an antique jack-in-thebox. There’s something particularly insidious about a monstrous menace to children. Farmiga and Wilson play the Warrens as slow to take on urgency, with a seenit-all world weariness that robs some scenes of their true terror.

Lili Taylor portrays Carolyn Perron, left, and Joey King portrays Christine in ‘The Conjuring.’

And horror audiences are more sophisticated than this story. A movie that plays like horror’s greatest hits — a little “Exorcist” here, a dose of “Chucky” or

“Paranormal Activity” there — is going to feel tired, even with the odd surprise. It conjures up a few frights, but “The Conjuring” is more solid

than sensational and spine-tingling. Think of it as a horror history lesson, the original “based on a true story” to explain those things that go bump in the night.

THE GUIDE

DESPICABLE ME 2 — Gru is recruited by the Anti-Villain League to help deal with a powerful new super criminal. PG for rude humor and mild action. 98 mins. Two and a half stars GROWN-UPS 2 — After having the greatest time of his life three summers ago, Lenny (Adam Sandler), decides he wants to move his family back to his hometown and have them grow up with his gang of childhood friends and their children. But he soon ﬁnds out that sometimes crazy follows you. PG-13 for crude and suggestive content, language and male rear nudity. Two stars THE HEAT — Give it up for Sandra Bullock and Melissa McCarthy. You’ll never see them work harder at comedy than in this stumbling, aggressively loud and profane buddy-cop picture where they struggle to wring “funny” out of a script that isn’t. R for pervasive language, strong crude content and some violence. 117 mins. Star and a half. LONE RANGER — Native American warrior Tonto recounts the untold tales that transformed John Reid, a man of the law, into a legend of justice. PG-13 for intense action and violence and some suggestive material. 149 mins. Two stars MONSTERS UNIVERSITY — It has been 12 years since we were introduced to

Monstropolis and the city’s power company Monsters, Inc., where scream energy is harnessed from terrified children. That’s where we met the furry blue giant named James P. Sullivan and his wisecracking lime-green cyclops buddy Mike Wazowski. Disney-Pixar’s “Monsters University” brings us back to the time when Sully and Mike were not quite BFFs. G. 110 mins. Three stars PACIFIC RIM — In the very near future, enormous alien beasts were sneaking into the ocean through a dimensional crack in the ocean floor along the Pacific’s “Ring of Fire.” After realizing battling these monsters was a toxic disaster, the world’s governments teamed up to build gigantic, human-controlled robots called jaegers. The rangers who drive them wear armor that lets them maneuver them through a neural mind-meld process called “drifting.” Cut to years later and the jaeger program is winding down, but the monsters keep coming. 130 mins. PG-13 for intense scifi action and violence and brief language. Two and a half stars WORLD WAR Z — The first 25 minutes or so of this “Contagion”-meets-“28 Days Later” thriller will leave you breathless. The rest of it serves up novel and often entertaining solutions to the various “zombie problems” this overexposed genre presents. PG-13 for intense frightening zombie sequences, violence and disturbing images. 116 mins. Three stars

NEW ON DVD This week’s new DVD releases include a bit of baseball and ﬁlm history. “42,” GRADE A-MINUS: There’s a natural beauty and romanticism about baseball that transitions to the silver screen as perfectly as a well-turned double play. If you add in a powerful story that resonates through history as sharply as the crack of the bat on a warm spring day, then what you have is this new DVD release, in which director and writer Brian Helgeland recounts how Jackie Robinson (Chadwick Boseman) broke the color barrier in Major League Baseball in 1947 when he was offered a contract by owner Branch

and Stephen Boyd, the original Caesar and Antony, were replaced by Harrison and Burton. By the time the ﬁlm wrapped production, it cost a then-whopping $44 million (or $323 million in 2012 dollars), a sum that nearly bankrupted 20th Century Fox. Mankiewicz’s sons Tom and Chris provide commentary tracks for the new Blu-ray, which is jam-packed with other fascinating extras detailing Liz’s neardeath experience and the beginning of the explosive affair between Taylor and Burton.

What: “R.I.P.D” Starring: Jeff Bridges, Ryan Reynolds, Kevin Bacon, Mary-Louise Parker Directed by: Robert Schwentke Genre: Action/comedy/crime Plot summary: A recently slain cop joins a team of undead police officers working for the Rest in Peace Department and tries to find the man who murdered him. Running time: 96 minutes Rated: PG-13 for violence, sci-fi/fantasy action, some sensuality, and language including sex references ••• What: “Girl Most Likely” Starring: Kristen Wiig, Annette Bening, Matt Dillon, Christopher Fitzgerald Directed by: Shari Springer Berman,

Robert Pulcini Genre: Comedy Plot summary: Wiig stars as Imogene, a failed New York playwright awkwardly navigating the transition from Next Big Thing to Last Year’s News. After her career and relationship hit the skids, she’s forced to make the humiliating move back home to New Jersey with her eccentric mother and younger brother. Adding insult to injury, there’s a strange man sleeping in her old bedroom and an even stranger man sleeping in her mother’s bed. Imogene eventually realizes that as part of her rebuilding process she must ﬁnally come to love and accept her family and her Jersey roots if she’s ever going to be stable enough to get away from them. Running time: 103 minutes Rated: PG-13 for sexual content and language

Newly restored for its Blu-ray launch, “Cleopatra: 50th Anniversary” (1963, Fox, G, $24) is wickedly entertaining eye candy that boasts crackling performances by Elizabeth Taylor (as the Egyptian queen), Rex Harrison (as Caesar) and Richard Burton (as Mark Antony). Even though it overﬂows with wit and visual pizzazz, it does suffer from its fourhour length. It’s fun, but there’s just too much of it. If writer/director — and Wilkes-Barre native — Joseph L. Mankiewicz (“All About Eve”) had known what a troubled production “Cleopatra” eventually would turn into, he’d likely never have agreed to take over for original director Rouben Mamoulian. But, like many men, he couldn’t say no to Liz, with whom he’d just worked on ” Suddenly Last Summer.” The pair had reportedly had an affair on that movie, and when Mamoulian departed, Mankiewicz turned up on set and told Taylor, “I’m here to do whatever you want.” The delay forced the production to move from London to Rome. Peter Finch

Rickey (Harrison Ford) to play with the Brooklyn Dodgers. “EVIL DEAD,” GRADE B-MINUS: The remake of the classic 1981 horror ﬁlm “The Evil Dead” is proof that more isn’t always better. When it comes to the blood and guts that saturate both movies, there’s a line between scarily gory and just plain disgusting, and the new “Dead” crosses the line on multiple occasions. Also new on DVD this week: “WHITE FROG”: Director Quentin Lee’s tale of the power of family, friendship and love. “ERASED”: An ex-CIA operative (Aaron Eckhart) and estranged daughter (Liana Liberato) become targets for termination. “BULLET TO THE HEAD”: Sylvester Stallone stars in the action ﬁlm directed by Walter Hill.

DEBORAH VANKIN Los Angeles Times LOS ANGELES — Netflix’s political thriller “House of Cards” made television history Thursday as the first online-delivered TV series to be recognized by the Academy with an Emmy nod — nine, overall. The weight of this was not lost on Kevin Spacey, who receivedanominationforlead actor in a drama for his role as the show’s Machiavellian, “get it done” Democrat, Francis Underwood. We caught up with Spacey for a quick Q&A just before he was headed out for a day of shooting. Q. This is unprecedented. Amid all the congratulations, are you able to absorb what a big deal it is, historically, for the industry? A. It’s pretty great, pretty great for the show. We got nine nominations, which is extraordinary because we are the new kids on the block. But also, there were all these questions swirling around: ‘Would we be able to break through because of the way the show is distributed?’ It’s a fantastic acknowledgment for MRC and Netflix and the show. Look, we’re the new kids on the block, and for us to break through in such a competitive field with so much great work being done — it’s incredibly satisfying and a great acknowledgment for the show. It’s just wonderful that the academy has recognized the show in so many categories. Q. How do you think the “House of Cards” nomination will change things for TV? A. It’s great for Netflix and the medium, and I expect we will start to see, hopefully, more organizations and companies stepping up and saying, ‘We want to order more programs and get into the content game.’ For the industry, it’s great because it creates jobs for more writers and more directors and more

actors. Q. How did you feel as the names in your category were being rattled off on TV? A. I was very pleased, but it was a bit nerve-racking EARLY

because they do it alphabetically, and (I was) the last name they read. So was Robin (Wright)’s. I’m also very pleased our casting got nominated because that’s paramount to our success.

CELEBRITY Q&A BY R.D. HELDENFELS

JUMBLE

UNIVERSAL SUDOKU

BY MICHAEL ARGIRION & JEFF KNUREK

Mark Dacascos is a man of many talents Q. I enjoy “Iron Chef America” on the Food Network and was wondering how Mark Dacascos became “the Chairman.” I have seen him on a few TV shows and was curious about his career. A. Dacascos is an actor with a long resume, including playing the villain Wo Fat on the current version of “Hawaii Five-O.” (Dacascos, by the way, was born in Hawaii.) He is also a martial artist, and the son of people adept in various forms. When he was contacted about “Iron Chef America,” he asked if the producers “knew that I ‘KICK,’ not ‘COOK.’?’’ He told the LAist website that the makers of the original Japanese “Iron Chef” series had casting approval for the chairman on the American version — and Dascacos was on their short list. “Two French films that I had done, ‘Brotherhood of the Wolf’ and ‘Crying Freedom,’ had done very well in Japan, and the producers of ‘Iron Chef’ knew me from that,” he said.

PREVIOUS DAY’S SOLUTION

CRYPTOQUOTE

Q. What about HBO’s “Newsroom?” Will it be back? A. The drama created by Aaron Sorkin begins its second season on HBO on July 14. The new season picks up 14 months after the first one ended, but then backtracks to follow fallout from a comment at the end of the first season by anchor Will McAvoy (Jeff Daniels) and a major crisis over reporting by the “News Night” program. Do you have a question or comment for the mailbag? Write to me at rheldenfels@thebeaconjournal.com or by regular mail to the Akron Beacon Journal, 44 E. Exchange St., Akron, OH 44309.

HOROSCOPE BY HOLIDAY MATHIS ARIES (March 21-April 19). You don’t have

too many policies as an individual and can afford to adopt a few more to guide the action over the next few days. For instance, “Five trips to the airport max per friend.” TAURUS (April 20-May 20). As the sign of the bull, you know that taking the bull by the horns isn’t always wise. Today you will outsmart the “bull” without risking your personal safety. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). People can be poor predictors of what will make them

ON THE WEB For more Sudoku go to www.timesleader.com happy, and you’ll experience this firsthand. The good news is that you won’t have to give up what you want. CANCER (June 22-July 22). Today’s fresh experience will be as crisp and as sweet as fresh fruit. You only wish your memory were worse so you could enjoy this for the first time all over again. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Getting older has been very much on your mind in recent days. Be like a sunflower. Don’t fear the encroaching shadow; shine and grow right now while the sun graces your face with beautiful energy. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You like reality and can take more of it than most people. But even you will long for a good escape into the land of fantasy.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You’re still get-

ting a lot of noise from your people because of a recent decision. Don’t increase the racket by defending yourself or explaining. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). One-stop shopping is appealing to people like you. However, what you need today is so special that you’ll only find it in a smaller place where the care is personal. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Your talents can’t fully come to light if you avoid the light. You’ll have to chase down the spotlight and stand in it. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Big day. You won’t do everything on your list, and this is a very positive sign. “If you have accomplished all that you planned for

yourself, you have not planned enough.” — Edward Everett Hale AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You want to impart some valuable skills to others, but it’s not quite time. You have to live it more before you can properly teach it. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). There’s an old joke that goes, “It’s destiny when things work out the way you want and blind chance when they don’t.” These days, you’re not leaving anything to chance. TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (July 19). You get the feeling that someone is watching out for you, and you’re right. Kismet joins you with a loving person in the next five weeks. Get advice before making a financial choice in August. Your lucky numbers are: 40, 5, 17, 9 and 12.

THE GUIDE

Dear Abby: My only daughter, “Claire,” who is 25, has always had a strong work ethic. Her boyfriend “Charles” has never held a job, either during college or in the year and a half he has been out of school. They were living with his parents until Claire accepted a one-year job overseas. Charles followed. Claire’s salary isn’t great, so I know she has little money saved, but she wants to start

DEAR ABBY ADVICE planning her wedding when they return. Should I stick with tradition and pay for it or listen to my head, which is telling me I don’t want to see her marry Charles until he has held a full-time job for at least a year? I think she can do better, but I suppose she could also do worse. They do seem to love each other. — Hesitant Mother

Dear Mother: Listen to your head. When Claire returns, let her know that she and her fiance will be paying for the wedding. It will be an introduction to the financial realities she and her husband will encounter after their marriage. Later on, when they’re considering buying a home, you can give them the money that might have been spent on the wedding as part of their down payment — if they are still together. Dear Abby: How do I break up with friends who I love but

GOREN BRIDGE

have nothing in common with anymore? I’m married with a child, but as a new business owner, I don’t have time to meet their needs. How do you tell people in a loving way that you have appreciated their friendship in the past, but it’s over? We have grown apart. — Don’t Have the Time

hate to see you end friendships with people you love. Relationships don’t always remain at the same level or have the same intensity. Rather than cut the people off entirely, explain that you can’t be as available because you have a new business and don’t have the time. It would be kinder.

Dear Don’t: Is it possible that your feelings are temporary, and that you are simply overwhelmed by the demands of your new business? If so, I’d
