Enjoying Craft Beers Across New Hampshire by Jim MacMillan Contributing Writer
Welcome to the 2015 New England Brewfest and Craft Beer Weekend, happening at Loon Mountain Ski Area, Lincoln, NH, June 26-28. This is the time when we celebrate what has been achieved... for the love of beer! This article will outline what New Hampshire currently offers our residents and visitors from our many breweries around the state. We are fortunate to live in an area alive with enthusi-
asm for craft brewing and a focal point for New England to boast about. NH has grown steadily in the number of craft breweries over the past 10 years. In fact, the past three years or so has shown a huge growth in licensed breweries being opened around the state. As of this writing, we are currently at 45 breweries! The different types of breweries are varied. There are brew on premises and eateries, tap rooms, selfdistributed, and breweries that are distributed within See BREWERS on 15
Of Growlers, Howlers and Growler Tours Handy Tips For Tasty Trips Into The World Of Craft Beer by David Colby Contributing Writer

OK, so the world (at least most of it) sometimes acts crazy (at least partly) over artisan-made, small-batch, uniquely local craft beer. And with the metamorphosis of so many folks into a sudsenhanced gastronomy comes the need to master a new language. A linguafermenta, if you will, of the hops and hand-made
set, that should be clearly understood to navigate the shoals of blueberryinfused vs. cherry scented vs. honeyed mead libations. It is a challenge, but one that can be de-mystified and un-complicated by following a simple rule: If it tastes good, drink it. Tasting good, however, is not the same thing as good taste, although some argue that if you have good taste, you will See growler on 26

Money In Politics To The Editor: The majority of voters of both parties believe that money is corrupting our system of government. Candidates as disparate as Lindsey Graham and Hillary Clinton believe that big money is buying our representation in Washington and that we need campaign finance reform. Jeff McLean, the director of the New Hampshire Rebellion, describes the situation well when he notes it is not a partisan problem and that “The main cause of the systemic corruption and dysfunction is the way candidates are forced to spend the majority of their time begging for campaign contributions.� This is THE BIG ISSUE! Whatever other issues that concern you cannot be solved until we get rid of the influence of money on politicians. Our congressional members don’t use common sense, research, consideration of facts, or compromise to promote the welfare of the country and its citizens. They are trapped into worrying about who they have to please to fund their election or re-election. We here in NH are in a unique position to press for change in the system. There are many opportunities to meet the candidates in person and ask the question, “If you are elected, what specific reforms will you advance to end the corrupting influence of money in politics?� In addition to the NH

Words From The Peanut Gallery To The Editor: A child who is in a wheelchair enrolls in an elementary school and her parents request that a ramp be put in to accommodate her. Modifications are made and changes occur to help her feel normal and in the process not a single parent bats an eyelash nor complains. Cigarette smoke in public places bothers most people but does not affect their immediate health and well being requiring an emergency trip to the hospital. Yet we ban smoking in public places because we do not want to be exposed to a known toxin and quite frankly some people just do not want to smell it. However if a child enters a school who can die from contact with a peanut; parents go up in arms about how it’s not fair. Some go so far to say “my children will starve to death if you ban peanut butter� really? Others just think it is an exaggeration of psycho parents who are overly afraid. Enter Angelina, my

I would eat peanut butter for breakfast everyday without a thought or care in the world. Angelina started to have a cough that would not go away and also although everyone blamed my beard the first few times when I kissed her she would get hives on her cheek. Then I noticed I ate peanut butter before a kiss and she had hives and rash. It was at this time we decided to get her checked to be safe. She was diagnosed with a severe peanut allergy. Regardless of what you may hear from some people and their internet comments and blogs a peanut allergy is in fact life threatening. According to the American academy of allergy asthma and immunology; “any food can cause an allergic reaction, but foods that cause the majority of anaphylaxis are peanuts, tree nuts (such as walnut, cashew, Brazil nut), shellfish, fish, milk, eggs and preservatives.� Angelina is four years old now and her allergy has been nothing less than terrifying. For those of you that do not know and judge let me tell you not only do we have to check ingredients of everything we buy and eat which by law they have to mention the major allergens but we also have to call some companies to See mail boat on 33

*A FLATLANDER’S OBSERVATIONS ON LIFE
Time For A Change
Weirs Times Editor
I was reading that in Concord, New Hampshire they recently unearthed a time capsule that was buried fifty years ago. Fifty years ago? Really? Leading up to this momentous day there were a few news stories about the supposed anticipation that was building as people anxiously awaited the cracking open of the time capsule so they could all see what kinds of things possibly existed in 1965. Once again. Really? The news stories also explained that some of the people who were at the recent opening were the same people who put stuff into the time capsule in the first place and were now there, fifty years later, to see the stuff again. In fact one gentleman was dismayed to find out a transistor radio he had given for the time capsule wasn’t in there. Seems someone swiped it fifty years ago. Someone involved with the event stated: “We found some wonderful artifacts that folks from the prior generation left for us to review and examine.” Hello!!! Prior generation right here and waving my arms in the air. In fact there are tens of millions of us. We didn’t leave anything yet. We are still here and alive and kicking. Well, alive anyway. “Hmm….this is a strange artifact.” “Hey, that’s mine, I’ve
person in town should be curious and possibly amazed at some of the things in the capsule. How excited can you get if you might have a coin in your pocket that is older than the one they just dug up? There is one thing that the digging up of the time capsule did show us. We as a species have certainly become more impatient over the years. In the realm of time capsules, fifty years is truly a form of instant gratification. But that’s just me being a cranky old man, after all I am turning sixty this year. Now the items in the time capsule will sit on display at the Concord library. People will be able to come and stare at these wonders of the past without having to go to a yard sale or search online on Craigslist. The most encouraging part of the article though was that the time capsule will be put back into the ground with items suggested by people today so that “…the folks in 2065 will open it up to find out what was important to us today.” Of course, most of those school kids who will suggest what to put in the time capsule will probably be there to see it when it is opened up in fifty years. “Hey, where’s the iPhone I put in there? Someone must have stolen the darn thing?” Of course, there will be some things that will never change.

been wondering what happened to that. Must have fallen out of my pocket when we were burying the darn capsule.” Having been born in 1955, I don’t find any of this very exciting. I wasn’t there, but I can imagine that the only people who may have been excited about it were the people who were there when they buried the darn thing in the first place. I would imagine that upon opening the “ancient” box, wide-eyed grammar school kids standing around waiting to see the mysteries of the past revealed to them, and exposing these items of history to them, a few of them may have said: “Hey, my grandma has one of them.” Or even “Hey, we have one of those in our basement. My mom tried to give it away at a yard sale but no one wanted it.” The rest of them may have been too busy looking down at their iPhones to have noticed anything at all. The unearthing of the time capsule had been in the local news for a few weeks leading up to the momentous event. When all was said and done and the time capsule was finally opened, a local newspaper, the same newspaper that had been making a big deal about the opening of the capsule for weeks, explained in a story that: “Coins, photos, medals and newspapers are just some of the items that were tucked inside.” A sentence like this can usually be rewritten in one word; “Boring.” To me, the idea of a time capsule is to bury things that, when dug up so many years later, would be things that were never seen before by anyone who is witnessing the unearthing.

Teach for America’s Professional Agitators It’s increasingly difficult to tell the difference between Teach for America -whose leaders are at the forefront of inflammatory antiby Michelle Malkin police protests Syndicated Columnist in Baltimore, Ferguson, and now McKinney, Texas -- and left-wing activist groups such as Organizing for Action (President Obama’s partisan community organizing army). Guess what, taxpayers? You’re paying for it! Wendy Kopp founded Teach for America in 1989 after writing her Princeton University thesis on the need for a “national teaching corps” of elite college grads who would serve students on shortterm stints in low-income neighborhoods. The do-gooder group has exploded into a massive, nonprofit business. “Between 2000 and 2013,” researchers at the National Educational Policy Center reported, “TFA’s yearly operating expenditures increased 1,930 percent -from $10 million to $193.5 million. Of those expenditures, TFA annual reports show that about a third of operating costs are borne by the public.” Individual TFA chapters have raked in millions in federal AmeriCorps grants, supported by leaders in both political parties. Large corporations (including $100 million donor Wal-Mart), philanthropic foundations, and individuals have pitched in nearly a half-billion dollars in tax-deductible charitable private donations. Teach for America spends copious amounts on advertising, lobbying and public relations to hype its academic benefits, but
its record on producing benefits for students is mixed. Government teachers’ unions don’t like the organization’s fast-track “boot camp” training or its support of public charter schools. But those concerns pale in comparison to the divisive, grievance-mongering activities of the group’s increasingly radicalized officials and alumni. TFA’s most infamous public faces don’t even pretend to be interested in students’ academic achievement. It’s all about race, tweets and marching on the streets. In Durham, North Carolina, two Teach for America officials led costly traffic blockades over the Ferguson, Missouri, shooting last December. North Carolina blogger A.P. Dillon identified protester Rachel Schankula as a TFA executive coach and program director dating back to 2001. Protester Robert Terrell Stephens, cited by police for attempting to incite a riot, is currently TFA’s director of alumni teacher leadership and also served as a community organizer for Obama for America. Deray McKesson, described by TFA as a “protestor,” is a finalist for the organization’s $10,000 Peter Jennings Award for Civic Leadership, which will be announced next month. He briefly taught sixth-grade math for the program before graduating to full-time racial rabble-rousing. A gushing New York Times reporter credited McKesson and his social justice warrior partners with building “the most formidable American protest movement of the 21st century to date.” He uses Twitter to jump the gun on every police-related shooting across the country. He fanned the flames over the bogus “NAACP bombing” in Colorado Springs. This week, McKesson scurried to McKinney, Texas, along with the National of
The End Of The Clinton Coaliton
Every time Hillary Clinton makes a leftwing policy pronouncement, it is, in effect, another eulogy marking the by RIch Lowry death of the coSyndicated Columnist alition and style of politics that twice made her husband president. Bill Clinton got elected by peeling off working-class whites and suburbanites from the Republican Party, while holding traditional Democratic voters. He made significant geographic inroads, winning a handful of Southern states both in 1992 and in his 1996 reelection, when he narrowly won the popular vote in the region as a whole. This is all very interesting, but the Clinton coalition is rusty and up on blocks in some overgrown backyard like the El Camino pickup he once boasted about. And Hillary knows it. See malkin on 33 Who is pushing Hillary to the
left? Hillary is. It’s sheer electoral necessity. As Sean Trende of the website RealClearPolitics puts it, President Barack Obama has narrowed but deepened the Clinton coalition. He blew the doors off it among base Democratic voters. As Philip Klein of the Washington Examiner points out, Democrats had won the 18- to 24-year-old vote by 11.5 points on average and the 25- to 29-year-olds by about 7 points on average from 1992 to 2004. Obama won those groups by more than 30 points in 2008 and 20 points in 2012. He outdid himself among minorities, liberals and upper-class suburbanites. Obama, Klein notes, amped up not just his margin among African-American voters, but their turnout. Elsewhere in the former Clinton coalition, though, his support collapsed, with older and blue-collar whites continuing to flee the Democrats. Even if Hillary wanted to try to recapture those kinds of voters, it’s See lowry on 36

“Cultural Cleansing” In Iraq And Syria UNITED NATIONS—Facing the onslaught of wanton destruction, cultural pillage, and a growing black market for stolen anby John J. Metzler tiquities, both Syndicated Columnist Iraq and Syria are feeling the brunt not only of the ideological violence of the Islamic State in Iraq and the Levant (ISIL), but the barbaric “cultural cleansing” of antiques dating back millennia. As the Mid-East confronts the expansion of the ISIL terrorist state, we also face the unintended consequences of both historic destruction and equally the attacks on religious minorities such as the Christians and Yazidis. “Present day Iraq, known in classical antiquity as Mesopotamia, was home to the oldest civilizations in the world, “ according to UNESCO, “the Cradle of Civilization, Mesopotamia, as part of the Fertile Crescent, was a significant part of the ancient Near East. Destruction of this history represents an attack to the ideals of humanism.” Ancient and storied Iraqi cities of the Assyrian kingdom such as Ninevah, Nimrud and Hatra have come under ISIL assault and pillage. At a UN roundtable on Countering Destruction and Trafficking in Cultural Property, Italian Ambas-
sador Sebastiano Cardi stated, “there has been a recent spike in the barbaric destruction of and terrorist attacks on the cultural heritage of countries affected by armed conflict. This is together with the unprecedented scale of organized looting and illicit trafficking in cultural objects.” Amb. Cardi stressed, “Such crimes seek to erode our collective cultural and historical heritage and are being used to intimidate populations.” He added the actions “generate income for terrorist groups, to support their recruitment efforts and to strengthen their operational capability to organize and carry out terrorist attacks.” An INTERPOL official openly admitted that ISIL uses such looting of archaeological sites as a “funding source.” Thus the shocking media images created by ISIL looting and smashing of cultural artifices such as in Mosul Museum and at storied historic sites, creates a huge demand for the antiquities which are being siphoned off for illicit international art markets and collectors. As with Khmer Rouge communist looting of Cambodia’s cultural legacy after 1975, much of the art then slips into the netherworld of lucrative illicit art markets. In 1969, Italy became the first country to create a special police division for cultural heritage and to fight illegal trafficking in stolen art. Lt. Colonel Antonio Cappola of the Italian Carabinieri, told attendees that organized crime is involved in
the trafficking. The Italians have a special unit in Iraq, to monitor places “suffering the pillage of cultural patrimony.” Deborah Lehr, Chair of the Capitol Archaeological Institute at George Washington University
warned of the widespread “cultural racketeering,” where ISIL knows “huge profits are to be made.” She stressed that saving Middle Eastern art “needs political will and champions.”

Who Lost Iraq? After the proWestern government of China was forced to flee to the island of Taiwan in 1949, when the Communists took over mainland China, bitby Thomas Sowell ter recriminaSyndicated Columnist tions in Washington led to the question: “Who lost China?” China was, of course, never ours to lose, though it might be legitimate to ask if a different American policy toward China could have led to a different outcome. In more recent years, however, Iraq was in fact ours to lose, after U.S. troops vanquished Saddam Hussein’s army and took over the country. Today, we seem to be in the process of losing Iraq, if not to ISIS, then to Iran, whose troops are in Iraq fighting ISIS. While mistakes were made by both the Bush administration and the Obama administration, those mistakes were of different kinds and of different magnitudes in their consequences, though both sets of mistakes are worth thinking about, so that so much tragic waste of blood and treasure does not happen again. Whether it was a mistake to invade Iraq in the first place is something that will no doubt be debated by historians and others for years to come. But, despite things that could have been done differently in Iraq during the Bush administration, in the end President Bush listened to his generals and launched the military “surge” that crushed the terrorist insurgents and made Iraq a viable country. The most solid confirmations of the military success in Iraq were the intercepted messages from Al Qaeda operatives in Iraq to their leaders in Pakistan that there was
no point sending more insurgents, because they now had no chance of prevailing against American forces. This was the situation that Barack Obama inherited -- and lost. Going back to square one, what lessons might we learn from the whole experience of the Iraq war? If nothing else, we should never again imagine that we can engage in “nation-building” in the sweeping sense that term acquired in Iraq -- least of all building a democratic Arab nation in a region of the world that has never had such a thing in a history that goes back thousands of years. Human beings are not inert building blocks, and democracy has prerequisites that Western nations took centuries to develop. Perhaps the reshaping of German society and Japanese society under American occupation after World War II made such a project seem doable in Iraq. Had the Bush administration pulled it off, such an achievement in the Middle East could have been a magnificent gift to the entire world, bringing peace to a region that has been the spearhead of war and international terrorism. Germany and Japan had been transformed from belligerent military powers threatening world peace for more than half a century to two of the most pacifist nations on earth, in both cases after years of American occupation reshaped these societies. Why not Iraq? First of all, Germany and Japan were already nations before the American occupation. There was no “nation-building” to do. But Iraq was a collection of bitter rivals -- Sunnis, Shiites and Kurds, for example -- who had never resolved their differences to form a nation, but were instead held together only by an iron dictatorship, as Yugoslavia once was.

Knowing The History Is Helpful I know better than to trust Democrats, but last Friday my belief that some representatives do want to by Niel Young Advocates Columnist represent their fellow Americans, did just that. House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi: “I will be voting to slow down fasttrack, today we have an opportunity to slow down. Whatever the deal is with other countries, we want a better deal for American workers.� Washington Post: The House of Representatives is expected to take a very important vote Friday on legislation known as fast track. It would give Obama leeway to negotiate two massive deals with Pacific Rim nations and Europe. Broadly speaking, Republicans support the plan. Democrats, not so much. Labor unions, those well-funded foundations of all that is good for the Democratic Party, absolutely hate the trade deals. Unions have promised to spend cash, lots of it, to take out any Democrat who supports Friday’s vote. Senator Kelly Ayotte: “I’ve heard directly from dozens of New Hampshire businesses that this trade legislation would help them create jobs and strengthen our economy, and I am disappointed by today’s vote in the House. I voted to support this legislation in the Senate because current trade negotiations could help create more than 8,200 new jobs in New Hampshire and spur international investment. That’s a 35 percent increase in export jobs, which typically pay 13 to 18 percent more than
non-export jobs. Passing trade legislation is critical to creating jobs in New Hampshire and growing our economy, and I urge members of the House to do the right thing and pass these bills when they are reconsidered next week.� Let’s give Kelly a call to tell her, the answer is STILL no! ******** My goal is not to hurt parents, and other family members of one who has chosen a different lifestyle. Radio guests and callers will refrain from, and this includes me, the personal comments as to the privacy of others. What I and those who can stay within not being in the wrong (hurting those who have made the change to that lifestyle) is the two sets of rules. Both sides have the First Amendment, thank the Lord. And, we have the right to remain in the business of our choice and NOT be threatened to sell or perform services that our conscience, religious and PERSONAL beliefs do not agree with. I recall signs “we reserve the right to refuse service to anyone�, usually a place where alcohol is served. Since those in the Gay Movement have decided that they are a special class of American citizens, and many laws now guarantee their special treatment. This is in violation of parts of our constitution which is purposely being trampled on, in an effort to dilute the freedom of speech for me. NOW, what rights does the other side of this issue have? Well, the same rights that are there in the constitution for every American. Speak or write in disagreement with my positions on any issue. You have the right to NOT associate with me. You
have the right to not do business with me in my courier business. In 1974 a private business shut me off for deliveries and pickups because the president of the local company did not like my city council votes regarding school and parks budgets. Of course I did not like losing a good account, but it was his call. For me to change my votes would be a form of being bought!! Today, with the attitude changes since 1974, I would be accused of not giving the schools and parks all the taxpayers’ money because “it’s about education.� And the fact that as being elected by the people promising the voters that THEIR money would be carefully spent, the Establishment would not stand for that. Tough, I say! Obama has named those who differ with him, and constitutionalists, as bigots, racists, troublemakers, enemies of the state, and we stand by and allow him to do it. WE have no help in D.C. Are Americans threatened with reprisal for opposing abortion, AT TAXPAYERS’ expense? Are anti-abortion folks threatened with losing their business? What I, my colleagues, and the callers have is the Freedom of speech, just like the other side to any issue. I must be doing something right in these 19 years. Democrats, Establishment republicans, and some Laconians would rather that I not be on the air. We have the right to opinions, liberals do not understand that. Both sides have the right to their opinions, and I have a right to not listen. Will you be sorry when these rights are gone? Please - do not take these rights from me – just because.

Woody
Woodpecker by Steve White Contributing Writer
Over 22 varieties of woodpeckers are found within the borders of the Continental United States. Many are heard rather than seen. Among all avian species, the woodpecker stands alone. No one bird can compete with the evolution of adaptations that this breed of winged creatures has endured. Just imagine if a human had to chisel his food out of a block of wood with his nose? Only then can one truly appreciate the marvel of a woodpecker’s physical design. It has a hefty bill used for hacking into tree limbs, its skull is fortified to withstand the shock and its brain is cushioned by an unusual thick membrane. For tree climbing, most woodpecker species have two toes placed forward and two facing back, giving it the power it needs to climb trees in search of food. This unusual grip also provides strength during the excavation of holes in trees. Another measure of stability is added by the stiff tail that serves as a third leg for bracing. The woodpecker is thought to have a heightened sense of hearing that allows it to detect bugs burrowed underneath bark. And, it has an enhanced sense of touch in its tongue for feeling out insect borings. However, there are many disparaging things written and spoken about this marvelous bird. Some have the mistaken idea woodpeckers harm trees by boring holes into them. The
opposite it true. By eating bugs that destroy plants, they prolong a tree’s life. When building a nest, it carves out an opening to a preexisting hole it locates by tapping on the trees trunk. Typically, a dead tree will be chosen. If using a live tree, it’s one already hollowed out by decay. And, the abandoned nest left behind will be used by a variety of other birds and creatures for shelter and

rearing their young. Some people laugh at the habit of a woodpecker pounding on a metal down spout as proof of the bird’s limited intelligence. Far from mistaking the gutters for a tree, it is using the loud noise produced to signal its territory and as a mating call. Woodpeckers are fond of suet, shell-less sunflower seeds, cracked walnuts, pecans and split peanuts. You can also attract these wild birds with specific sized nest boxes that should be bark covered and the bottom area lined with wood chips. Enjoy your birds!

Much of this roof is covered with black streaks from the bacteria Gloeocapsa magma. However, two areas are free of stains because copper from the cupola and zinc from the flashing washes onto the roof each time it rains.

but the manufacturers were only telling part of the story. They quickly discovered they had a problem using fiberglass. The thin mats wouldn’t absorb enough asphalt to meet the minimum requirements of weight per square. It was decided the best way to add weight was to blend powdered limestone in with the liquid asphalt. It worked. The shingles got up to weight much like a prizefighter. However, the scientists at the shingle manufac-

rid black streaks. Many houses have lots of roof visible from the ground, so your pain is shared grief by many homeowners just like you. The cause of the streaks is quite an interesting story. Years ago shingles were made with felt paper as the base material. But in the 1970s manufacturers replaced the felt paper base mat that made up the foundation of a typical shingle with fiberglass. I clearly remember early in my career when fiberglass shingles hit the market. They were marketed as a revolutionary product,

DEAR CARLY: You and millions of other homeowners are victims of black roof streaks because a living organism is eating your roof. But don’t worry; your roof will go bad long before Gloeocapsa magma stops gorging itself on the tasty shingles. The black stains are merely the dead cells of the tiny, pesky microscopic creature. Gloeocapsa magma is often referred to as algae. That’s technically incorrect; it’s a type of cyanobacteria, or photosynthesizing bacteria. It thrives in humid climates like yours. If you travel to just about any part of the United States that gets a fair amount of rainfall, you’ll observe quite a few roofs sporting these hor-

Starting with the largest of NH breweries, AnheuserBusch in Merrimack supplies the most product in this state and we can all agree that they sell a lot of beer! And we hear that their brewery tours are amazing. But after Bud and Bud Lite, where do we focus when it comes to true craft brewing? There appears to be two main brewing areas in southern NH; Portsmouth and Manchester. So let’s look at those locations, starting with Portsmouth. Then we’ll find the rest...

The next largest brewer in NH is Smuttynose Brewery, established in1994. Their brand new $22 million facility expansion of the Towle Farm in Hampton is state-of-the-art and eco friendly. Their free tours of this brewery are one of the most informative you will experience. They also have an eatery and reception hall space in the converted barn for functions there and are connected to the Portsmouth Brewery in downtown Portsmouth. Close by is Redhook Brewery, established in 1981. They have a sister brewery in Seattle as well. With a large production ca-
pacity, they brew a bunch of great Redhook beers and, under the Craft Brew Alliance, brew for Kona (Hawaiian brewery) and Widmer (Seattle) for distribution on the east coast. It’s a fun tour, great food at the pub and they are always sponsoring sporting events around the state. Other breweries in the Portsmouth area are Earth Eagle, Beara Irish and Great Rhythm, all of whom were licensed within the last three years. Just a short ride from Smuttynose is Throwback Brewery in North Hampton. Started by two women who wanted to concentrate on supporting local farms for
their hops, grains and fruit for their beer, Throwback continues to be successful with 22 oz bottles, growlers and their brewery tasting room. And just down the street is Blue Lobster Brewing which opened in 2012 and offers a tasting room and growler fills. Heading out of the Portsmouth area, you will find Stoneface Brewing in Newington and a brand new brewery coming on line this summer, Deciduous Brewing in Newmarket. Stoneface’s India Pale Ale is widely acclaimed as being one of the best IPA’s in the nation! In Dover, you’ll find 7th See brewers on 17

Settlement and Garrison City Beerworks. They offer great beer matched with great food and are within walking distance from each other... just in case you want to visit both. Not far away in Northwood is Out.Haus Ales which is a nano brewery operated and self-distributed by the owner. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s worth a visit to his tasting room just to see him in his daily kilt. A few towns away is Canterbury Aleworks, also single owner and operator micro and tasting room. Three other single owner, self-distributed breweries are Lone Wolfe in Wolfeboro, Belgian Mare in Alstead and Squam Brewing in Holderness. All of these brewers create wonderful and varied 22 oz bottles and growlers. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s worth a stop at Hobbs in West Ossipee for some great food and onsite brewery. A little further north is Tuckerman Brewing in Conway. They have recently moved into a larger brewing facility which will let them stretch their capacity and style offerings. In North Conway, look up Moat Mountain Smokehouse and Brewery and Sea Dog Brewpub for some tasty refreshment. In Lincoln, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll find Woodstock Brewery and brewpub with a newly expanded brew space and reception area. Further north in Littleton, seek out Shilling Beer Company which offers some great beer and food pairing. Ok, time to head south toward Manchester area. Along the way, look for Flying Goose Brewpub in

Stoneface IPA
Stoneface Brewing | Newington, NH stonefacebrewing.com Stoneface IPA is a hop lovers treat and is considered to be an American IPA (India Pale Ale) coming in at 7.2% ABV and around 60 IBU (International Bittering Units). It is delivered in 16.9 oz bottles which is just slightly larger than a pint glass. This beer is dry hopped, meaning that more hops are added to the wort (finish beer) after it is cooled. This addition is what adds some bittering notes but also much more floral ones as well. They use Warrior hops early in the boil and Centennial for flavor. Amarillo, Citra and a little Simcoe are used for dry hopping. The beer should be poured into an open top pint glass to get both taste and smell at your first sip. For this pouring, an Australian pint glass (inverted bottle shape) was used. Citrus zest, grapefruit and honey are the initial flavors, while the hop character and complexity stay throughout the experience. With a crisp, though malty mouthfeel, this deep golden brew and pillowy head will bring a smile to your face.

Kindest Find - Imperial Red Ale
Smuttynose Brewing Co. | Hampton, NH | Smuttynose.com “Kindest Find” is a play on words from their original IPA, Kindest Find. The label is quite interesting as is this awesome brew. Deep red in color, it professes a large malt-forward presence, but quickly tells you about the hop character just behind. They use four malt types and four hops; Magnum, Zeus, Centennial and new arrival, Falconer’s Flight. On first full pour into a pint glass, a medium sized tan head appears and remains. With reminders of grapefruit and rock candy, the sweetness stays against the bittering. But to some, the bittering may win out. Serving temperature has a lot to do with your impression of the hop character; warmer and the hop is right there. Cooler and the sweetness speaks. At 9.0% ABV and 65 IBU, the imperial part speaks for itself. You will appreciate the overall balance of this 22 oz beer and want to sample it again (and again...). So, this short series will probably be more fun than first realized after tasting this gem.
Coffee-Oatmeal Stout
out.haus ales | Northwood, NH | outhausales.com “Coffee-Oatmeal Stout” is a winter seasonal that is still widely available and worth pursuit. It is rich in flavor and aroma as you bring the glass to your lips. The immediate recognition of coffee fills the sense, without being bitter as some coffee stouts can be. Chocolate notes also appear within the initial sampling. This is a deep, dark brown brew with a thick mocha head which takes a while to settle. The malty mouthfeel is sensuous. The oatmeal part of this beer is derived from the grains used. The balance achieved through blending coffee and oat yields a smooth, slightly sweet stout, very drinkable and is a modest 5% AVB. According to Tom, he actually adds coffee grounds in the boiling wort (the liquid achieved from steeping grains and hops during the brewing process) which imparts the flavors realized in this delicious stout. Using milder Northern Brewer and Willamette hops balances the maltiness nicely. Finally, at bottling, Tom adds a bit of lactose to help balance just the right amount of tartness from the coffee. The result is like having a great cup of coffee with the richness of a velvety stout.

Curlyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Gold
Rockingham Brewing Co. | Derry, NH. rockinghambrewing.com Curly is a gentle-spirited and mild American wheat beer with supple noted far away hops that will remind you of springtime. Pouring this beer for the first time into a pub mug gave a surprisingly white and frothy head which stayed for quite some time. This bready wheat brew finishes fairly dry and will beg for more sampling as the time passes. The term gold certainly refers to its somewhat hazy cast of golden yellow. Also as a home brewer, this beer smells slightly like some of the wonderful scents coming from my brew days. It might be the light hop aroma, bready wheat malt or just the desire to taste one more sip of a delicious light brew crafted right here in New Hampshire. At 5.1% ABV, Curly will be a session beer you can cuddle up with after an afternoon of spring chores.
Tripel belgian style ale
Smuttynose Brewing Co. | Hampton, NH.
Smuttynose.com â&#x20AC;&#x153;Tripelâ&#x20AC;? is a great example of a Belgian beer. Traveling throughout Europe, one would sample many similar beers with this distinction. So Smutty has done their homework on this one. Tripel is 8.2% ABV, so this beer will gain your appreciation and satisfaction. It is golden and orange in color. Its slightly sweet with a generous malty mouth-feel and has no particular place to go except spending time with you. Poured into a pint glass, Tripel retains its off white head quite nicely. Your nose will pick up a generous amount of floral sweetness along with an abundance of headiness from this strong ale. The Belgian yeast is what makes this beer a treat. The citrus color is inviting and, again, typical of the style of beer. Some spice and fruity notes are apparent as you partake. Well balanced and never bitter, this brew will require you to finish the bottle.
Dippity Do (American Brown Ale)
Throwback Brewery | North Hampton, NH. throwbackbrewery.com â&#x20AC;&#x153;Dippity Doâ&#x20AC;? American Brown Ale is darker than you would think for a brown ale... almost black in color. Reminds me of a porter or stout. The initial pour into a well-rounded glass leaves an off-white thin head but great lacing on the glass that lasts throughout the experience. Never sweet, this beer has the mindset of a stout and boasts more IBU (International Bittering Units) than the 36 it is rated at. At 5.7% ABV, this brown ale is rewarding but arduous. It is conflicted with its final direction. Will it be sweet; not really. Will it be bitter; not tremendously. But it does entertain your pallet with its nuttiness and potent flavor notes. Smokiness is realized from the first sip. But balance of bitterness and maltiness is a plus for this brew. Overall, this beer has high merit and is for those discerning a new experience in brown ales.
Alsteadder Ale
Belgian Mare Brewery | E. Alstead, NH belgianmare.blogspot.com Alsteadder Ale is a very easy drinking ale named after the town the brewery resides in. Tim dedicated this brew to the folks of the town that helped him throughout the process of opening. He believes in keeping it simple and this beer is an example of his thinking. It is not overly complex, but just a great ale to relax with and contemplate the day. The golden haze of Alsteadder Ale lets the imbiber know they are in for a treat. At 4.2% ABV it is not overpowering by any means but has a smooth drinkability that will keep you coming back. A clean white head can be seen on an uninhibited pour into a pint glass with great retention. At first sip, there is a distinct balance that occurs between malt and Hersbrucker hops. The end notes are a bit citrusy. It rewards with clean and slightly malty mouthfeel.

In 1861, Frank Jones purchased the balance of the business and started the Frank Jones Brewing Company which began with an annual output of five thousand three hundred barrels and was soon employing five hundred workers. Eventually demand for the beer grew to 250,000 barrels a year. Under Jonesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; guidance the business grew more and more prosperous and lucrative and many improvements and additions were made.

The clock tower at the Frank Jones Brewing Co. jones from 20
malt house with a capacity of eighty thousand bushels and was listed as the largest brewery in the country. In 1869 it was enlarged to keep up with demand and in 1871 a new brew house was built. In 1878 a cooperage (barrel house) department was added and in 1879 an even larger malt house was built. During the 1880s the Frank Jones Brewery was home to the largest cellars for the storage of ale and porter in the United States and in 1900 an extensive bottling works was built next door to and adjoining the brewery. In 1889, Frank Jones sold his brewery to British investors but stayed on as the head of the brewery and in 1896 they produced a record 250,000 barrels of ale, almost eight million gallons. Frank Jones died in 1902. He had the biggest headstone in the city. Most of the brewery
buildings still exist today off of Islington Street and are used for other types of business.

18 holes with cart
Mon-Thurs : $49
This beer is to be poured into a clear pint glass to get the fullest enjoyment of both taste and smell as you partake. It pours lovingly into the glass, is not overly frothy and the head retention is minimized in off white hues. As you bring the glass to your nose and lips, notes of citrus and lemon are immediately noticeable along with a honey-style sweetness. Light bodied and crisp, this golden, slightly cloudy brew delivers a nice balance between malt and hops, keeping both with mild manners. Blonde ales are supposed to be understated as we crawl out of the cave and look forward to light summer beers again. This ale is one that should be on your top 10 list for this season.

Ellenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Coffee Milk Stoutâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s luscious maltiness is nicely balanced by its roasted coffee made from a local roaster in Bar Harbor. Also added ever-so-gently is Madagascar Vanilla making this one a treat.Pour this beer into a â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;tulipâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; glass to get roasted coffee and vanilla notes. The vanilla is not overpowering, unlike other vanilla-bomb beers Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve experienced. With a deep tan frothy head, the blackness of the glass full is inviting. Creamy and rich, the malty mouthfeel is complex and leaves you wondering where this beer is leading you... it leads you to take another sip, of course. If a stout-style beer which looks this muddy to non-connoisseur, could be described as clean, then this beer is very clean and wisely directed; hats off to Atlantic for their accomplishment.

WEEKEND 9 HOLES COUPON
Summatime is a golden delicious visual treat. It pours elegantly into a pint glass with a thick frothy white head which lasts through most of the sampling. You immediately sense fruity, citrus notes, some grapefruit and floral elements. With the first sip, you are hooked on itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s maltiness, with a crisp, clean, somewhat distant hop character near the end of the experience. An American Ale yeast was used for this yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s edition (completely redesigned from last year), and has improved the wow factor by a large value! Yeast has so much to do with how beer tastes. The variety it is says so much about the brew style. Combining just the right amount of hops to balance against the grains used (another design feature) makes what you drink successful in your sampling. This is what craft brewing is all about these days!

â&#x20AC;&#x153;Companyâ&#x20AC;? Belgian Quad
Paradigm Brown Ale
Henniker Brewing Co. | Henniker, NH hennikerbrewing.com
kelsen brewing Co. | Derry, NH. | kelsenbrewing.com â&#x20AC;&#x153;Paradigmâ&#x20AC;? stands for outstandingly clear and this beer is a wonderful example of what a brown ale should be. It commands your attention without a second to loose. Its deep, deep ruby color and malty goodness are immediate notes along with some hop scents to the nose. But one of the more important qualities of this great ale is its balance. With a thick tan head, malty mouthfeel, this beer delivers everything it promises. Although medium bodied, this brew has a great balance of bitterness and a sweet finish and is as smooth as silk in every swallow. There are also some chocolate, caramel and roasted notes that accompany the aroma. At 7.0% ABV, Paradigm is surprisingly luscious and worth every bit of time you spend with it. Lacing of foam lasts to the bottom of the glass. It is a wonderful creation which Kelsen has shared with us! This American brown ale style is true to form and will be a beer that other brewers will use as a benchmark. It has won numerous medals in brewing competitions across the country.
Czech Style Pilsner
moat mountain brewing Co. North Conway, NH. moatmountain.com
Belgian-style beers are in a class by themselves as they portray a specific, almost fruity-sweet taste and heady flavorful mouthfeel. When you pair these characteristics with a high-gravity (higher alcohol by volume), you are in for a treat. Add in also that the Company is aged with toasted cherr ywood from rum barrels and gives you a very unique taste. At 10.5% ABV and an IBU (International bittering unit) of 25, this 22 oz bottle is a big beer!
The Camp
Squam Brewing | Holderness, NH squambrewing.com â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Campâ&#x20AC;? is one of the best barleywine ales Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve sampled and often use it as a gauge to measuring ALL other barleywine styles. It is available year-round (not seasonal). First off, you will find this beer quite heady. Coming in at 10% ABV, it lies between the 8-13% normal range for this variety of beer. That being said, it is not over-powering and invites you back again and again. In the proper tulip glass for a robust beverage, the head retention is off-white and rich. Nose senses are sweet and fruity as they should be, but balanced by headiness by its strength. Burnt copper rouge, this treat does not let you down. With a malty mouth-feel, it is rich in flavor, lasting long after swallowing.
Moatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Czech Pils is a luscious and velvety golden yellow beer that needs a larger than normal volume of a 16 oz pint glass. Since the can is 16 oz and the rich white head that occurs when poured, you will need a 22 oz glass to fully enjoy this brew. It is bright and beautiful. The head is sparkling white. And the balance of slight maltiness and low hop bittering make this an exceptionally drinkable beer. There are slight hints of spice with a smooth, dry finish. Since the foamy head maintains over a longer than normal period of time, the carbonation will also be realized in each sip of this crisp and lovely style. Pilsners are made with lager yeast and are fermented at between 43-55°F while ales are fermented from 60-78°F. This colder temperature helps as a clarifier in the final product, yielding a distinctive clarity. At 4.9% ABV, Czech Pils isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t bragging about being big. But if you understand Moatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s purpose of brewing this Bohemian Lager style true to form, then you will appreciate it even more.

the roof bacteria were not the cause of deteriorating shingles or granule loss. The good news is you can clean your roof and make it look like new. If youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re able to safely get on a part of the roof thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s stained, try mixing up some soap and water. Just use regular liquid dish soap you probably have in your kitchen. Apply it with a hand-pump sprayer and work in the shade when the roof is cool. Once youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve applied
the soap, go ahead and scrub the shingles with a traditional scrub brush. This brush will not harm the shingles. Rinse the roof with clear water and check your results. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve had far better success using oxygen bleach using the same method as described above. Oxygen bleach rapidly restores the roof to its original look. Do NOT use chlorine bleach, as it will kill any vegetation that it comes into contact with around your home. A few decades after the new fiberglass shingles were brought to market and roofs started to turn black, the manufacturers came out with a cure. They noticed that some roofs, or parts of them, were NOT turning black.

Briefly stated, a growler is a re-sealable container for transporting a sample of beer from the brewery to the growler ownerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s home. Generally, growlers hold 64-ounces of brew, but range from much smaller to much larger sizes. They are frequently dark or amber glass to help keep out harmful UV
radiation (a taste killer) and are fitted with screwor swing-top caps to lock in carbonation. Plain or hand-decorated ceramic and etched stainless or aluminum variations are available as well. All are intended to help transfer taste and effervescence from the point of origin to the point of consumption. A howler, you ask? Not a mystery: Just someoneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s short-hand for a half growler. But how about the name, Growler? As usual, two (or more) stories emerge as to where the name growler was born. One story says that in the late 1800â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s it was customary to take a container to the local pub
and ask for a fill-up. The barman was instructed to pour a pint, while the owner of the jug was more inclined to see more brew poured. The resultant pint-vs-more pour caused the â&#x20AC;&#x153;loserâ&#x20AC;? in the contest to grumble- or growl- over the outcome. A more likely genesis of the term has to do with the type of container, and more specifically the type of seal, used to contain carbonation in the freshly-drawn beer. Lacking modern technology, these primitive seals would leak, or growl, on the way from the pub. Over time, one or more of the above stories gained currency, and today we affectionately, if not accurately, refer to 32, 64 or some other ounce-based container as a growler. Whether itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s growlers or howlers, one of the best ways to size up the craft beer scene in New Hampshire is via a Granite State Growler Tour.

on hiking since we were stuck in a cloud. Nearing the ridge we passed by the site of an old logging camp. Old buckets and an old iron chain link are hung on the trees and along the side of the trail long iron skidder rails rest. Larry had told us that a professional trail crew had come just a few days prior and had removed all the large blow downs. We passed lots of fresh woods chips and the trail was clear all the way to the Appalachian Trail/ Mahoosuc Trail intersection. To reach Mount Success we had to travel south on the AT a little more than half a mile to reach the high point of Success’ summit. On top of a hunk of ledgy rock there is a survey marker and it is surrounded by a swampy area where the trail continues over bog bridges and ledge. We hiked further south while the clouds were lifting, swirling and mixing with spots of blue sky that gave us hope for a clear day. After a last set of bog bridges and clearly over the summit we kept our eyes open for a herd path on our left, the east side of the trail. We had one false start but the next one we took had a clear well worn foot bed that continued all the way to the AT trail corridor and we followed the yellow blazes south. We knew we must be near when we saw a round piece of aluminum stuck
On top of Mount Success, elevation 3,565 feet. It is named after the unincorporated town of Success, NH where it is located. The Appalachian Trail/Mahoosuc Trail crosses its summit and the peak is included in the “52 with a View” hiking list. This is the second time I have stood on top inside a cloud. on a spruce tree top. Then we saw it, scattered airplane pieces and parts next to a large section of the fuselage. Becca and I circled the wreckage and entered the plane. I thought it was odd that a yellow blaze was painted on big piece of wreckage just like it was a big rock not moving anywhere anytime soon. Aluminum doesn’t rust and if it wasn’t for the trees grown up all around, it would be easy to believe this plane crash site wasn’t 60 years old. “Dream” is painted in still bright red letters high on the fuselage above where a door once hung. Inside graffiti covers the walls and I wish I took more time to read the names and dates. What I have learned from friends and other sources that the plane was a DC3 and crashed into the mountainside on November 30, 1954, while See patenade on 32

traveling from Laconia to Berlin. The crash was believed to have been caused by bad weather and possibly faulty instruments. All seven people on the plane survived the impact but two died the first night— rescue arrived two days later. Imagine how cold the nights must have been for the survivors. Becca and I managed not to rip our clothes or cut ourselves on the sharp
pieces as we explored and attempted to identify the scattered metal. A piece of the engine here, part of a wing there and is that rubber from the landing gear? As we were leaving a young man arrived. He was surprised to see us and was quite excited that he found the wreckage. We retraced our way back over Success’ summit and we were pleased to see glimpses of the sur-

rounding mountains. Hiking back down to the Success Trail seemed much steeper going down than it had when we went up. Larry was higher up on the trail when we met him again. I got him to pose for a photo and we thanked him for his service. We decided to swing by The Outlook again and we were well rewarded with a grand vista from the cliff.

Thank you Larry, thank you all trail adopters! Larry working high up on the Success Trail. The trail was free of blow downs and he was hard at work cleaning all the water bars. one direction we could see downtown Berlin and in another we could see all the way to Mount Washington. The Outlook is about two miles up and on our way back we met two high school kids coming up the trail. They told us they were just headed to The Outlook. I had to agree that this was a worthy
destination on its own for a modest effort. Driving back on the dusty Success Pond Road we saw a beaver doing its best to block a culvert, we stopped by Alcohol Spring (not the fountain of youth just good cold water) and we saw an ATV zooming down the road. Have Fun.

see if there was possibility of cross contamination (not a law to disclose) which can send Angelina in to anaphylactic shock and possibly kill her. Let me give you some examples of our experiences with Angelina to demonstrate the severity of the condition and yes I called it a condition. One time my daughter ate a candy bar with no nuts in it, at the time we were just learning of her allergy and had no idea about cross contamination. The ingredients listed no peanuts and we called and they said it was indeed processed on equipment that also processes peanuts. Her reaction this time was diarrhea, vomiting, hives and a rash. The minute we realized she malkin from 6
Islam, New Black Panther Party, and assorted rent-amob professionals, to turn a pool party fight into an international incident. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are currently at the McKinney Police Department, occupying space,â&#x20AC;? he breathlessly reported. One of his fellow peace-loving instigators at the rally thundered: â&#x20AC;&#x153;[W]eâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re setting the stage for a terrorist attack in this country, and the group is not going to be ISIS.â&#x20AC;? Another fellow TFA traveler is Brittany Packnett, the executive director of St. Louisâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Teach for America chapter. Sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s also a finalist for the groupâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Peter Jennings Award and a McKesson ally. They published a Ferguson newsletter together, distributing it to activists around the country -- and inside the Justice Department. Her Twitter profile shows her making the debunked â&#x20AC;&#x153;Hands up, donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t shootâ&#x20AC;? gesture in front of a line of police officers. Credited with putting the â&#x20AC;&#x153;#BlackLivesMatterâ&#x20AC;? Twitter hashtag on the map, the 29-yearold St. Louis-area activist was tapped by President Obama to join his federal policing commission. Packnett briefly taught third grade as a TFA instructor in Washington, D.C., before diving into political organizing to rep-
was having an allergy we gave her Benadryl and had to monitor her for the next 3 hours. The next time we were at a frozen yogurt shop which listed all ingredients and one that we knew we could feel safe in. Upon walking out a kid is walking in holding a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. I did not even notice but he said hello to my daughter and touched her hand. As we were walking home she all of a sudden broke out into a rash and started having trouble breathing we instantly gave her Benadryl and broke out the epi-pen just in case. You see the things people do not realize is each reaction usually gets worse and then most if not all subsequent exposures end in anaphylaxis which is a resent â&#x20AC;&#x153;our collective truthâ&#x20AC;? and promote â&#x20AC;&#x153;the urgency of now.â&#x20AC;? Packnett pointedly praises â&#x20AC;&#x153;the fact that TFA has consistently had my backâ&#x20AC;? in her quest for â&#x20AC;&#x153;disruptive change and systemic change.â&#x20AC;? She bragged that TFA co-CEO Matt Kramer accompanied her to protests in St. Louis. Another proud moment for TFAâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s St. Louis leader: Her conversion of a 25-year-friend who went from having actual jobs as a pharmacy technician and furniture store employee to becoming a â&#x20AC;&#x153;field organizer for the Organization for Black Struggle.â&#x20AC;? Teach for America has transformed itself into a recruiting center for militants bent on occupying themselves with anything other than imparting knowledge and academic excellence to children in the classroom. When a governmentfunded outfit abandons education as its mission in favor of social agitation, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s time to cut off the taxpayer pipeline.

life threatening emergency. My daughter can never live a normal life and at 4 she already feels like an outsider. I cannot take her to baseball games which she loves because peanuts are a staple of the culture. She cannot go to a movie theater, on planes, to birthday parties etc. Some people offer her food saying â&#x20AC;&#x153;Oh this
does not have peanuts in itâ&#x20AC;? but little do they know if it is cross contaminated or contains a tree nut they can kill my daughter. Some common things like cake icing, candy, cereal, Chinese food, fried foods and potato chips often contain or are processed with peanuts. So all I am asking is for
people to open their minds and see this allergy for what it really isâ&#x20AC;Ś a disability that does alter your daily life and render it impossible to live like a normal citizen especially as a child in school.

As national legislation is usually too slow in most countries, Ms. Lehr suggested cultural Memorandums of Understanding (MOU) between governments to stem the tide, as well as working with auction houses to check on the provence of pieces in inventory. Amb. Dina Kawar of the Kingdom of Jordan decried the spread of Islamic State into Syriaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fabled Palmyra and added that the terror-
ists were mixing â&#x20AC;&#x153;ideological violence with cultural cleansing.â&#x20AC;? So what can be done? Both the UN Security Council and General Assembly have passed resolutions prohibiting the cross border traffic and trade in these cultural antiquities. UNESCOâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Director Irina Bokova, in a Cairo speech asserted, â&#x20AC;&#x153;The destruction of cultural heritage used as a tactic of war, to intimidate populations, to
finance criminal activities, to spread hatred. ..the protection of heritage is far more than a cultural issue; it has become a security imperative.â&#x20AC;? UNESCO recommends a number of steps to stem the trade; to protect cultural zones, to integrate heritage into UN peacekeeping, monitor â&#x20AC;&#x153;cultural cleansing,â&#x20AC;? having UN Blue Helmets for heritage sites, and crowd sourcing and reconnaissance drones to get images of the looters.

Finding and focusing military power to stop ISIL, beyond the rhetoric, is difficult at best. President Barack Obama appears clueless at what to do or not to do. Just 18 months ago, the President was brushing off ISIL as a â&#x20AC;&#x153;junior varsityâ&#x20AC;? terrorist group. Later, after stunning IS military successes throughout Iraq, the President was still pondering a lethal American response but conceded â&#x20AC;&#x153;we donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have a strategy.â&#x20AC;? Just last week when asked about a counter offensive, Barack Obama conceded, â&#x20AC;&#x153;we donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t yet have a complete strategy.â&#x20AC;? The Presidentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s honesty or simple indifference was stunning. The power vacuum created by a vacillating American leadership, combined with a largely incompetent Iraqi military, coupled with Iraqâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s deep sectarian divisions in Islam, have created a self-perpetuating crisis which threatens the cultural heritage, the ancient Christian communities under attack, as well as the majority Muslim populations in Iraq and Syria. The people are suffering and the ancient patrimony is at the whim of barbarians inside the gates. John J. Metzler is a United Nations correspondent covering diplomatic and defense issues.

Replacing German and Japanese dictatorships with democracy after World War II was a challenge. But both countries remained under American military governments for years, slowly gaining such selfgoverning powers as the military overseers chose, and at such a pace as these overseers deemed prudent in the light of conditions on the ground. American authorities did not rush to set up an independent government, able to operate at cross purposes because it was â&#x20AC;&#x153;democratically electedâ&#x20AC;? in a country without the prerequisites of a viable democracy. Despite the mistakes that were made in Iraq, it was still a viable country until Barack Obama made the headstrong decision to pull out all the troops, ignoring his own military advisers, just so he could claim to have restored â&#x20AC;&#x153;peace,â&#x20AC;? when in fact he invited chaos and defeat. This is only the latest of Obamaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s gross misjudgments about Iraq, going back to his Senate days, when he vehemently opposed the military â&#x20AC;&#x153;surgeâ&#x20AC;? that crushed the terrorist insurgency, as did Senator Hillary Clinton also, by the way.

not clear that she could, and the effort would risk alienating the Obama supporters she needs. So the question for Hillary is whether a 67-year-old candidate who’s not a racial minority or particularly exciting can re-energize the electoral coalition defined by a youthful African-American who rose to prominence on rhetorical flights of fancy about hope and change. She’s certainly not going to do it by recapitulating the politics of Bill. He hewed to the political center. He played defense on cultural issues. He balanced the budget (at the insistence of a Republican Congress). He touted, at least after his first two years, small-scale government programs of symbolic significance. He was tough on crime and relatively hawkish. Everything indicates she’s going to do and be the op-
posite. Hillary will make herself a paladin of the left, and hope to energize and frighten the constituent parts of the Democratic base enough to walk the treacherously narrow electoral path of President Obama. This is the price of victory Obama-style. Despite his rhetoric of unity, Obama depends on a politics that writes off much of the country and depends on turning out voters already inclined to support him. It is less a politics of persuasion than of mobilization. For Hillary, this means the centrism and practicality of her husband have to be jettisoned, so what remains from the Clintonism of yore is mostly the shady dealings and shameless insincerity. But she really has no choice. It’s go left or go home. Rich Lowry is editor of the National Review.

With the amazing playing of guitarist Bryan Killough and the powerful vocals of Jeff Bibbo creating their signature sound, the band welcomes back longtime bass player Nate Edgar (Nth Power, John Brown’s Body) and
gifted drummer Nikki Glaspie (Nth Power, Dumpstafunk) to the line-up. Glaspie has also performed with Beyonce, Jay-Z and Kanye West. Doors open at 7:00 PM. The nine-piece JazzFunk group Harsh Armadillo opens for Groovechild. Tickets are $40 for VIP and advance at $15 and $18 at the door. They can be ordered online at Rochester Opera House.com or call/stop by the box office (603) 335-1992, M/W/F from 10-5 and two hours before the show. Cash bar.
