Winston Bartenders to open one Hel of a bar
“The ‘boys club’ mentality runs rampant in the service industry,” wrote Cambra and Masencup in a joint answer to YES! Weekly. “We’ve watched as women have been demoted and fired over minor mistakes while their male counterparts have been given multiple chances to redeem themselves after making much more serious transgressions. We’ve seen male bar owners and managers grope and harass customers and sta members with little to no consequences, and we’ve also experienced situations where we have been pitted against other women by management as a way of being forced to prove that we’re worthy of employment.”
The old friends and new business partners are out to challenge what they call a toxic status quo.
They intend to challenge the industry’s patriarchal and sometimes dangerous culture in an e ort to make Hel’s a safe space.“Noone should be made to feel uncomfortable or unsafe while they’re just trying to have a good time. Hel’s will have a strict zero-tolerance policy for anyone using hate speech or inflammatory language, violating others’ personal space without consent, or generally being disrespectful. Our goal is to resolve the situation before it becomes a problem.”
“We’ve brought on people who have experience and know what to keep an eye and an ear out for while they’re working. We want our guests to feel comfortable letting us know if they need us to step in and we want them to know that they will be heard when they do. Our most important rule is that everyone deserves to be treated with respect, both guests and employees. If anyone comes through our door and chooses not to abide by that, they will be removed immediately.”Masencupsaid that she and Cambra met while working together and immediately bonded, due to their shared strong work ethic and desire to change the way their industry is run. They knew early on that they wanted to name their dream bar after a feminine deity.
The idea of Hel’s was born when the two women were working in a bar where they say they were treated horribly by management.“Wedecided that we needed to create our own space that upheld the values we share. We’ve watched for years as transgressions against employees, women, LGBTQIA+, POC, and other marginalized groups have been allowed to happen in bars because ‘that’s just the way it is’. We want to change that standard because we believe that everyone deserves to be treated with respect and compassion.”
If everything continues on schedule, the first drinks will be poured there in early November.

“After weeks of doing research, we
“When men are confident in their experience and ability, they’re treated with respect and promoted. When we do the same, we’re told that we’re ‘too big for our britches’ (a quote from a former employer). We fully expect that not everyone will look at us with the same regard they give other male bar owners, but we’re both incredibly stubborn and enjoy the challenge that comes with having to prove ourselves.”
One key element of this is sta ng.

fell in love with Hel. She is the queen of the underworld, but her realm isn’t just a bad place for wrongdoers like the Christian Hell.’ Instead, it’s a place where regular everyday people go. Being from the bible-belt and creating a space that is welcoming to people who are often told that they’re ‘going to Hell’, we liked the play on words and the idea behind it, which is that you aren’t a sinner, a bad person, or abnormal for being who you are; you’re not going to hell, you’re going toCambraHel’s.” said she couldn’t recall who first suggested the name. “But we instantly loved it and started reading into her lore. I do not believe Morgan or I knew anything about Hel apart from hearing the name in passing. Hel, a place where everyone goes no matter their ancestry, gender, sexual orientation, or sex; a place for everyday people. Morgan and I have always felt that our human obligation is to show compassion and stand up to injustice. The bar is our stand against the injustices we have seen.”

Cambra, who bartends at Recreation and Tate’s Craft Cocktails, is currently studying at UNCG, where she majors in history and minors in art history.“Being a full-time student and opening a business can be stressful; however, I feel that the stress and struggle are worth it when you have committed to following your passion for creating something that matters to people and the betterment of your community. Morgan and I have had a lot of people in our life tell us no, that we cannot or will not be able to accomplish our goals because of our age or sex. To that, Morgan and I have always said.... watch us.” !

For Cambra and Masencup, protecting women, people of color, and the queer community is incredibly important. “To live authentically and unapologetically is the bravest thing someone can do in a society that can be cruel and judgmental,” said Cambra. “Women, POC, and the LGBTQIA+ community are filled with courageous individuals who refuse to apologize for who they are. We wanted to create a space for them because they deserveMasencup,it.”
Laughs:
The North Carolina Comedy Festival is bringing guaranteed laughter to the Triad. The fourth annual event will feature more than 50 shows from September 2 to September 11 by roughly 300 comedians from all around the United States and Canada.Jennie Stencel, executive producer of the festival, said that residents could expect to have their choice of several comedians each night of the “Everyone’sfestival.excited. It’s a really cool networking event for all the local performers as well as the people that come in,” Stencel said. “A lot of the shows tend to sell out. Everybody is buying the t-shirts and is ready to laugh for ten days. I think everybody is ready to have some fun.”
Jennie Stencel Eric Brown
“You couldn’t perform at an open mic once a month and be good at this, but some people think you can. That would be like picking up a guitar once a month and thinking that you were going to be this great guitar player by the end of 12 months when you’ve only played 24 minutes,” she said. “It’s definitely something that you have to work on if you want to get good at it. You might be a naturally funny person but being good at standup is more than just being a funny person.”Localcomedian Eric Brown said that he is excited to not only be performing this year but also hopes to take in as many shows as possible.

“It is an opportunity to not only perform in front of entertainment brass but comedians from all over the United States, and possibly even the world, as well as some of North Carolina’s funniest comedians,” he said. You can be sure to find him at one show, enjoying the laughs.“Outof the 300 participants, I hope I get to see Oscar P.,” he Accordingsaid. to Stencel, anyone who comes out is going to have a great time while supporting live comedy.
“This highlights comedians that The Idiot Box books as well as people who submitted from North Carolina. We have people from all over North America and Canada. We are doing this to help grow our local comedy scene. We even have some free shows in a couple of spots,” she said. While this should be the fifth annual event, the pandemic thwarted the festival plans. Stencel feels that people are going to enjoy seeing live performances again.“Everybody is like ‘what can I find that’s new in my town?’ I think they are looking for fun, new, cool things that maybe existed before but they didn’t know about them,” she explained. “I think people are really looking to be out amongst people again and have a little fun. So hopefully we have a successful festival.” Stencel, who typically organizes the festival herself, said she doesn’t know of another festival that takes on the number of comedians that she does. “I don’t know of another festival that takes on 300 comedians. Usually, they take 20 or 40. Usually, there’s a board of people,” she said. “In general, I plan it from start to finish on my own, and then I have some sta that helps with videography, double checking this and double checking that. But for the most part, I plan it for eight months and then we go for it.”The festival also o ers comedians a chance to perfect their craft with workshops geared toward making them better performers. Those workshops are already sold out for the 2022 festival.

“We run workshops that teach various skills for performance like improv, how to work better with a theme/ partner, or using characters more e ectively to make the show funnier. We also run stand-up workshops where we teach you how to come up with a standup comedy skit by the end of the workshop.”
Stencel said that the workshop serves as a way to find those nuances that work for comedians.

I’ll admit it: In my wayward youth, I was a huge Star Trek fan. Call me a “Trekkie” or “Trekker,” but I loved the television series and was totally jazzed for Star Trek: The Motion Picture in 1979. favoriteGoldsmithscoreanspecialdespiteUnfortunately,spectaculareectsandOscar-nominatedbyJerry(stillmycomposer), the film fell Whatevershort.myconcerns for the franchise were, when I saw Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan in 1982 (on opening day – of course!), those concerns were laid to rest. It was everything a Star Trek movie should be, and that sentiment was shared by a vast majority of fans, who ensured its ongoing status as a profitable franchise, on both the large and small screens. Now, Fathom Events has teamed up with Turner Classic Movies and Paramount Pictures to bring the director’s cut of Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan to the big screen in honor of the film’s 40th anniversary. Of the hundreds of theaters nationwide o ering this special presentation, two are here in the Piedmont Triad: The Regal Greensboro Grande Stadium 16, 3205 Northline Ave., Greensboro, and the Regal Palladium Stadium 14, 5830 Samet Drive, High Point. Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan will be presented in both theaters at 4 p.m. and 7 p.m. Sunday, September 4th, 7 p.m. Monday, September 5th, and 7 p.m. Thursday, September 8th. Tickets are $13.34 each and can be purchased here: https://www. fathomevents.com/NicholasMeyer,who made his feature directorial debut with Time After Time (1979), assumed the directorial reins for The Wrath of Khan, which reunited the entire cast from the series: William Shatner, Leonard Nimoy, DeForest Kelley, James Doohan, George Takei, Walter Koenig and Nichelle Nichols, joined by Paul Winfield, Bibi Besch, and newcomers Kirstie Alley and Merritt Butrick. But the most important element was the return of Ricardo Montalban as Khan, the genetically enhanced superhuman introduced in the 1967 Star Trek episode “Space Seed.”
While on a routine training mission, the crew of the U.S.S. Enterprise is confronted by Khan, who has commandeered the U.S.S. Reliant and has come into possession of the Genesis Project, which can turn lifeless moons into thriving planets. In the wrong hands, however, Genesis can be a tool for unspeakable destruction, which is precisely Khan’s intent as he wreaks vengeance against his old nemesis, Admiral James T. Kirk (Shatner). The film was controversial even before it opened when it was revealed that a major character would not survive, which only fueled curiosity and interest. The film earned plaudits from the critics and set an opening-weekend box-o ce record, grossing over $14 million. Needless to say, the record has since been broken numerous times, but back then that was a clear indicator that Star Trek was still a very viable franchise. Shatner won the Saturn Award for Best Actor and Meyer the Saturn Award for Best Director. Some fans still consider it to be the best in the series. Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan is rated PG. For those who want to “keep on Trekkin’,” September 6th has been designated “Star Trek Day,” and Paramount Home Entertainment will commemorate this landmark by releasing all six of the original feature films in a 4K Ultra HD combo: Star Trek: The Motion Picture retails for $30.99, while Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan, Star Trek III: The Search for Spock, Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home, Star Trek V: The Final Frontier, and Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country (also directed by Nicholas Meyer) each retail for $25.99, and each boast bonus features. Paramount is also releasing “Star Trek: The Original Motion Picture Collection” ($94.96 retail).

L areofficersandawyerspolicesupposed to know, enforce, and obey the laws. Here in North Carolina, Attorney General Josh Stein is both the State’s top cop and top lawyer, therefore, he, more than anyone, should be held accountable if he breaks the law. Instead, Stein is now trying to slither out of prosecution by arguing that the law he broke is unconstitutional. And it’s not a brand new law that he was unaware of. It is a State law that dates back to 1931. So why is Stein just now trying to get it changed? BECAUSE HE BROKE IT! That’s why. The saga began in 2020 when Stein was running against long-time Forsyth County district attorney Jim O’Neill. That year, one of the hot campaign issues was the backlog of unprocessed rape kits on the local and State levels. Both sides exploited the issue for political purposes, but Stein crossed the line with a TV ad that accused O’Neill’s office of having “left 1,500 rape kits sitting on the shelf,” the implication being that O’Neill’s failure to test those rape kits in a timely manner allowed rapists to roam free and rape more victims. O’Neill claimed that Stein broke a 1931 law that “makes it a misdemeanor to knowingly circulate false, derogatory reports about a candidate with the intent of hurting that candidate’s chances in the election” (source AP). Violators of the law would pay a fine and could spend up to 60 days in Notjail. surprisingly, a Wake County grand jury recently found that Stein should be indicted. But the very next day, a threejudge panel of the 4th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals voted 2 to 1, to override the grand jury, essentially preventing the law from being enforced until Stein’s team had time to try and prove that the law as written is unconstitutional. The panel is comprised of two Democratic judges and one Republican judge. The two Democrats sided with Stein, who is also a Democrat. So much for justice being blind. In their ruling, the two Democrat judges said that Stein’s TV ad was protected as free speech, thus his challenge to the 1931 law would likely succeed. Their decision will have the effect of running out the clock on O’Neill’s team because the statute of limitations expires next year.
In her dissenting opinion, the lone Republican judge on the panel wrote, “Stein’s campaign, the ad production company, and the woman who appeared in the ad, haven’t shown they are entitled to this extraordinary relief… the State will forever lose its opportunity to enforce the law if the grand jury proceedings are stopped.”

Wtorrec-di-riter/ Baltasar Kormakur’s Beast isn’t a good movie, but it’s not a bad one — and it could have been considerably worse. Its main asset is front and center throughout: Idris Elba, in a full-fledged star turn. Elba is such a magnetic screen presence that he can make just about anything, including this exercise in B-movie formula, bearable and even watchable. He may be killing time, but for an audience looking to do likewise on a hot summer’s day, he brings a touch of class to Beast. Idris plays Nate Samuels, a doctor who brings his two daughters (Iyana Halley and Leah Je ries) to Africa where he first met their mother. She has died recently, and the girls harbor some resentment because Nate and their mother were separated when she fell ill with cancer. At the same time, poachers nearby have been hunting lions by the score, but one particular lion has instead been hunting them — and doing a bloody good job of it. What occurs next should be of no surprise to any viewer over the age of five. Accompanied by long-time family friend Martin (Sharlto Copley), Nate and the girls take an impromptu tour of the region and soon run into trouble. It’s a good thing Nate’s a doctor because his skills will come in mighty handy indeed, and whatever the family’s domestic dilemmas, there’s nothing like a few days trapped in the African bush being terrorized by a rogue lion to put those to rest. Predictable in the extreme, Beast telegraphs most of its plot points well in advance. There aren’t a lot of surprises here. The attack scenes pack some punch, the filming location o ers some spectacular scenery, the CGI (computergenerated imagery) e ects run hot and cold, Kormakur maintains reasonable pacing (despite some padding), and it all ends as you’d expect it to. There are a couple of chuckles, all unintentional and all predicated on the clichéd expectations of the genre. Beast is what it is, take it or leave it.

[VIDEO VAULT] BY MARK BURGER
THE BAD GUYS (DreamWorks/Universal Pictures Home Entertainment): Pierre Perfiel makes his feature directorial debut with this light-hearted, elaborately produced adaptation of Aaron Blabey’s best-selling series of children’s books, detailing the misadventures of the titular crew of miscreants (voiced by Sam Rockwell, Marc Maron, Awkwafina, Craig Robinson, and Anthony Ramos) forced to undergo “rehabilitation” at the hands of a pompous scientist (voiced by Richard Ayoade) who has other, nefarious plans in mind for them. A few jokes will appeal to grown-ups, but this is primarily directed toward kids — and none the worse as a result, available on DVD ($17.96 retail), Blu-ray ($22.96 retail), and 4K Ultra HD combo ($44.98 retail), each replete with bonus features including audio commentary, behind-the-scenes featurettes, and more.
“BLUE BLOODS”: THE TWELFTH SEASON (CBS Home Entertainment/ Paramount Home Entertainment): Standing tall for law and order in New York City, the Reagan family’s back in action in all 20 episodes from the 2021-’22 season of the award-winning CBS crime series starring Tom Selleck, Bridget Moynihan, Donnie Wahlberg, Will Estes and Len Cariou, with guest appearances by Jimmy Bu ett and Ali Stroker, available in a five-DVD collection ($42.99 retail) — replete with bonus features including behind-the-scenes featurettes, deleted scenes, and gag reel.
“FILM NOIR: THE DARK SIDE OF VIII” (Kino Lorber Studio Classics): The latest Blu-ray triple feature ($49.95 retail) of vintage film noir thrillers: Burgess Meredith and Claire Trevor headline Street of Chance (1942), based on a Cornell Woolrich story; Charles Korvin plays the title role in Enter Arsine Lupin (1944), based on the character created by Maurice Leblanc; and Korvin joins Merle Oberon, George Brent and Paul Lukas in Temptation (1946), based on the novel Bella Donna by Robert Hichens. Bonus features include audio commentaries and theatrical trailers.
Rated PG.
DVD PICK OF THE WEEK: DOG SOLDIERS (Scream Factory/Shout! Factory)
SAMIRA’S DREAM (IndiePix Films): Filmmaker Nino Tropiano spent over a decade filming this award-winning documentary feature in which he trained his cameras on Samira, a modern-day Zanzibari woman, following her academic ambitions to become a teacher and other events that occurred in her life during that period of time. Both a compassionate, in-depth character study and a persuasive depiction of contemporary life in Africa. In English and Swahili with English subtitles, available on DVD ($24.95 retail), replete with audio commentary and deleted scenes.
With confident enthusiasm, Marshall sets up the narrative in shrewd fashion, and displays a knack for orchestrating mayhem with snatches of black comedy, intriguing twists and turns, and splashes of gore. The squeamish, understandably, are forewarned, but fans will devour it gleefully.
MYSTERIOUS ISLAND OF BEAUTIFUL WOMEN (Kino Lorber Studio Classics): The title tells all in Joseph Pevney’s directorial swan song, a 1979 CBS-TV movie (released theatrically overseas as Island of Sister Theresa) in which millionaire Peter Lawford’s private jet crash-lands on a remote island populated entirely by females battling a hostile tribe known as “the Headchoppers.” Total camp nonsense, with an embarrassed-looking cast including Clint Walker, Steven Keats, Jaime Lyn Bauer, Jayne Kennedy, Deborah Shelton, Sandy McPeak, Michael McGreevey, and Rosalind Chao (in her TV-movie debut), available on DVD ($14.95 retail) and Bluray ($24.95 retail), each boasting audio commentary and trailers.
OLGA (Kino Lorber): Writer/director Elie Grappe’s award-winning feature debut stars Anastasiia Budiashkina (in her feature debut) in the title role, an exiled Ukrainian gymnast and Olympic hopeful living in exile in Switzerland whose family is caught up in the Maidan Revolution in her homeland. Real-life gymnast Budiashkina had to flee her native Ukraine during the recent turmoil there, lending this even more relevance and credibility. In French, Russian and Ukrainian with English subtitles, available on Blu-ray ($29.95 retail).
In their award-winning debut feature, writer Iliana Estanol and writer/producer Johanna Lietha co-directed this credible but fragmented drama focusing on three aimless couples in modern-day Vienna as they indulge in thievery, casual sex, and hedonism in an e ort to combat boredom and their own immaturity and inadequacies. Flaws and all, it’s worth a look. In German with English subtitles, available on DVD ($24.95 retail).
SHRIEK OF THE MUTILATED (Vinegar Syndrome): Mere words can hardly describe this ultra-cheap, ultra-sleazy 1974 shocker edited and directed by Michael Findlay, starring Alan Brock (in his only feature) as a college professor who investigates the legend of the Abominable Snowman on a weekend expedition with his graduate students, only to see it turn into a gruesome nightmare for all concerned — including the viewer. Nevertheless, this played drive-ins and grindhouses for years after its initial release and boasts a fervent cult following. The limitededition (!) Blu-ray ($42.98 retail) includes audio commentary, retrospective interviews, and more. Rated R. ! See MARK BURGER’s reviews of current movies on Burgervideo.com. © 2022, Mark Burger.
LOVECUT (Omnibus Entertainment):
A tight ensemble cast includes Sean Pertwee, Liam Cunningham, Kevin McKidd, Thomas Lockyer, and the feature debuts of Emma Cleasby, Darren Morfitt, and Chris Robson. Despite the film’s acclaim and success, proposed sequels never materialized.The4KUltra HD combo ($36.98 retail) includes multiple audio commentaries, retrospective interviews, vintage featurette, still galleries, and more. Rated R.
Writer/editor Neil Marshall’s award-winning 2002 feature directorial debut was an immediate cult classic, and put a fierce, fresh spin on the werewolf legend in a contemporary context. Luxembourg and Norway pass remarkably well for the Scottish Highlands, the setting of this tantalizing tale, in which a squadron of soldiers is deposited to engage in a training mission for the Special Air Service (SAS), Britain’s legendary crack commando unit. Their training hasn’t quite prepared them for what they’re about to face – rampaging lycanthropes that don’t require a full moon to transform.
BELLE (GKIDS/Shout! Factory): Writer/ director Mamoru Hosoda’s award-winning, PG-rated animated feature (originally titled Ryu to sobakasu no hime) detailing the fantastic misadventures of a shy teenager who enters a virtual realm and adopts the on-line persona of the titular “Belle,” a gorgeous international superstar, available in a DVD/Blu-ray combo ($26.98 retail) and a collector’s-edition 4K Ultra HD combo ($64.99 retail), each replete with bonus features including original Japanese (with English subtitles) and English-dubbed audio options, behindthe-scenes featurettes and interviews, trailers, and more.

COMING APART (Kino Classics): The Blu-ray bow ($29.95 retail) of writer/director Milton Moses Ginsberg’s 1969 debut feature (originally rated X), starring Rip Torn is a psychiatrist (!) who installs hidden surveillance cameras in his bachelor pad to satisfy his voyeuristic tendencies, with Viveca Lindfors and Sally Kirkland among the objects of his obsessive attention. Bonus features include retrospective interviews, Ginsberg’s short films, theatrical trailer, and more.
THE CRIMINAL LIFE OF ARCHIBALDO DE LA CRUZ (VCI Entertainment/MVD Entertainment Group): The Blu-ray bow ($29.95 retail) of Luis Bunuel’s awardwinning 1955 adaptation of Rodolfo Usigli’s novel (originally titled Ensayo De Un Crimen) stars Ernesto Alonso in the title role of a wealthy, unhinged wastrel determined to pull o the perfect crime, only to see his e orts repeatedly go awry. In Spanish with English subtitles, bonus features include a video essay celebrating the film.
“NCIS: LOS ANGELES” — THE THIRTEENRTH SEASON (CBS Home Entertainment/Paramount Home Entertainment): Chris O’Donnell and LL Cool J are back on the case in the City of Angels, in all 22 episodes from the 2021-’22 season of the award-winning CBS crime series (the first NCIS spin-o ), with Eric Christian Olsen, Daniela Ruah, Medalion Rahimi, and Gerald McRaney rounding out the regular cast, available in a five-disc DVD collection ($39.99 retail) including such bonus features as behind-the-scenes featurettes, deleted and extended scenes, and gag reel.
POLICE REPORT — Oh, that mischievous imp, Dennis the Menace. A 3 1/2-foot-tall bronze statue pays tribute to the cartoon strip character at Dennis the Menace Playground in Monterey, California — except for when it’s on the run. The statue, which was installed in 1988, was stolen — again — on Aug. 21, Monterey police told KSBW-TV. Thieves used a grinder to cut Dennis’ foot and remove the 200-pound artwork, called “a symbol of the goodness and happiness of the City” by City Manager Hans Uslar. The statue was first stolen in 2006; a replacement statue was placed in the park a year later. In 2015, a Dennis the Menace statue was found at a scrap yard in Orlando, Florida, but it was determined to be a di erent piece than the Monterey Dennis. The kid gets around. [KSBW, 8/23/2022]
A hot spring in Yellowstone National Park is the site of an ongoing investigation after a park employee discovered a human foot, inside a shoe, floating on the surface of Abyss Pool on Aug. 16, Denver 7 TV reported. O cials believe the foot may belong to a person who died on July 31 at the same hot spring. “Currently, the park believes there was no foul play,” a statement read. Law enforcement o cers are still looking into the July death. The Abyss Pool is one of the deepest in Yellowstone, and its temperature can reach 140 degrees. Although park regulations and signage discourage visitors from getting too close to the pools, since 1890, at least 22 people have died from hot-springs related injuries. [Denver 7, 8/22/2022]
WAIT, WHAT? Cleveland, Georgia, is home to Babyland General Hospital, the Mirror reported, but don’t go there with a broken finger or to deliver a human infant. The faux hospital is actually a toy store where fans of Cabbage Patch dolls can witness a “birth” as a nurse calls out “dilation” updates: “five leaves apart, seven leaves apart, nine leaves apart” — even announcing the necessity for a “leaves-iotomy” (like an episiotomy). “Finally,” according to a Twitter post from Sarah Baird, a recent visitor, “the cabbage patch doll is born.” Shoppers/visitors who want to adopt a new doll have to sign adoption papers, but the store’s guarantee is comprehensive: If your doll becomes damaged, you can send it back, and if it can’t be repaired, they’ll send you a co n and death certificate so you can lay it to rest. One Twitter user who visited as a child replied, “I am so glad to know it is just as odd and terrifying as I remember.” [Mirror, 8/17/2022]

When Jenn Ross returned home from the gym about 7 a.m. on Aug. 17, she found an unexpected guest in her Mount Maunganui, New Zealand, home: a young fur seal. Ross’ husband, Phil, is a marine biologist but unfortunately wasn’t home to meet the interloper, the Guardian reported. “I really missed my time to shine,” he said. He believes the seal came in through the cat door and spent some time in the guest room and on the couch, but thankfully didn’t relieve itself inside. “I think that would have been pretty terminal for the furniture,” he said. It’s not uncommon for the young seals to range far and wide at this time of year, Ross explained. “I guess, like all teenagers, they don’t necessarily make sensible decisions,” he said. [Guardian, 8/18/2022]
The owner of a “cursed fridge” in England has been posting fliers around London, o ering the haunted appliance “free to collect” to anyone who can live with the “soul within,” the New York Post reported. “My stepmother had a heart attack on our kitchen floor in the middle of an electrical storm,” the poster explained, “and her soul was transferred into the computer unit of our smart fridge.” The owner claims the fridge is judging them on “how many slices of cheese I’ve eaten or whether I’ve properly put the lid back on something. She has to go.” In an even odder twist, however, the attached phone number rings not to an individual but to a kitchen showroom. Hmmm ... [NY Post, 8/5/2022]
— Anthony Petty, 62, of Seminole, Florida, told Pinellas County cops on Aug. 18 that he was “just trying to celebrate his birthday” when he arranged to meet a 14-year-old girl for sex at a St. Petersburg apartment. The Smoking Gun reported that Petty had been communicating with the “girl” — really an undercover police o cer — on a chat app, sending her explicit messages and a video of him being his own BFF. Petty is being held in lieu of $12,000 bond. [Smoking Gun, 8/19/2022] !

WRONG PLACE, ALL THE TIME Ray Minter of East San Jose, California, has lived in his home since 1960, he told KTVU-TV. But since 1972, Minter’s house has been hit 23 times by cars as they exit the 680 South freeway. Despite steel poles, installed by his insurance company, and a chain-link fence out front, cars still slam into his home. “I’ve had four of the cars come through my house completely,” Minter said. “All the other ones have torn up my fence, and I’ve lost three cars in the yard.” Amazingly, none of his family have su ered serious injuries, although his niece had an arm broken and spent time in the hospital after one incident. Of the drivers, Minter said, “Most of them have been drunk. Like the guy in 2016. He hit (Minter’s car) at 105 mph.” The City of San Jose says it has no authority over the o -ramp but encourages drivers to slow down and obey tra c laws. [KTVU, 8/16/2022]

The uniqueness of the event is really something to see firsthand. It’s an immense amount of fun.” Now in its 9th year, the festival for bike nuts and rock n rollers alike, will open with a drag race-style street sprint through downtown on Friday, classic criterium on Saturday, and wind down on Sunday with a round of fondos (near and far). On the music side, Gears & Guitars is stoked to o er the music end for free this year. “We really want people to come out in a big way,” Boden said, thanking the sponsors that helped cover the costs. “We’re expecting some great crowds and some serious fun.”

A co-founder of Gears & Gears, Boden assembled the first festival “from scratch,” and enjoys combining the high-energy nature of cycling and live music. He’s also been on the sta of the WinstonSalem Open since its inception and is the co-founder and managing director of the Coalpit Live Series at Incendiary Brewing. Sports and tunes seem to be his breadand-butter.Originally the Winston-Salem Cycling Classic, with bands as a bonus, the event kicked into high gear, o cially becoming the Gears & Guitars Festival in 2016. Boden beams the e orts of Winston-Salem Cycling as an organization over the years.
“We’ve come a long way!” he said. “We’ve run Union Cycliste Internationale road races, managed the USA Cycling Championships in several di erent categories, managed the UCI North American qualifying event for their world fondo championships; and ran tons of other races and fondos.
Fans of Winston-Salem’s defunct radio station, “94.5 the Rock Alternative,” will relish the Saturday music lineup, starting with Tonic at 6 p.m., followed by Cowboy Mouth and Better Than Ezra until 11 p.m. Meanwhile, cyclists in “fast and furious” criterium races will be zipping around Bailey Park, circling the audience and stage, from 4th Street to Vine to 5th to Patterson and back again. Amateurs run in the morning (8 a.m.-3:45 p.m.). Professional races will be held from 4 to 8:15 p.m. Fans can wake up on Sunday to a workout with F45 Training Winston-Salem in Bailey Park at 11:45 a.m. Earlybird longhaulers can enjoy a 65-mile Gran Fondo (starting at 8:30 a.m.). 42-mile Fondo (9 a.m.) or 15-mile Fondo and 7-mile gravel variation that both begin at 10 a.m. Over at Bailey Park, the festival takes a casual “Sunday Funday” block party approach. Bands begin at noon; along with kid-friendly safety workshops, bike decorating tent, rodeo, and parade. Musically, the rock n roll cover band Repeat O ender makes its debut to open the show. The Deluge, Killing Gophers, and Crenshaw Pentecostal will close out the afternoon local showcase.
A Camel City native, “Anytime my hometown gets to show itself o , I’m proud,” he said. “Winston’s live music scene has steadily been coming back stronger and stronger over the past five or six years, even through the pandemic. We’ve got great rooms like the Ramkat, Gas Hill, and Monstercade; and outdoor spots like Bailey Park and the Coalpit. Not to mention all the live music happening at the breweries. It all works together in the big scheme of things to improve the vibe of live music here, and I loveTheyit.”love it so much, that they’re doing it twice — kicking o the Friday night show and headlining the Sunday closer. “Ray is putting us to work, for sure,” he said. It was easy to say yes to, though. We love to play wherever, whenever. We’ve done small dive bars with ten people watching, to playing with Bon Jovi at PNC arena and 14-thousand people this year. It’s all the same to us. We want to turn our amps up and beat the crap out of our drums.”
Food trucks and mini-velodrome demos will welcome attendees to Bailey Park on Saturday and Sunday afternoons. Food trucks run all day. The mini-velodrome will run demos from 2 to 4 p.m. on Saturday, and host a demo and competition from 1 to 3 p.m. on Sunday.

Saving the fondos for Sunday, the festival kicks o on Friday with a “Streets of Fire” drag-race sprint that looks to light up 4th Street (from Spruce to Trade), as riders set the street ablaze from 7 to 9 p.m. Crenshaw Pentecostal kicks o the music (at Marshall and 4th St.) at 7 p.m., followed by “An Evening with Dawes and Bahamas” package that runs until 10 p.m. Dawes, a Los-Angeles based altrock outfit and Bahamas (the GRAMMY Award-nominated Canadian artist) are co-headlining a national tour that features two collaborative sets. The Winston rockers in Crenshaw Pentecostal are playing two sets themselves: bookending the festival as Friday’s opener, and closing the festival as the headliner for Sunday.
“We love that Winston has something to look forward to every summer,” said Crenshaw Pentecostal’s Dusty Redmon. “A big weekend of loud rock and roll and speeding bikes is pretty righteous.”
Di erent sorts of shows may all be the same to Redmon and his Crenshaw cohorts — but their sets won’t be. “Friday night will be a little bit more of a ‘tune up your guitar and rip it’ evening,” he explained. “The set will open up a bit more on Sunday; maybe a couple of fun cover songs. I’m excited about both sets though. I think the vibes will be totally di erent each day.”
In contrast to the high no-octane energy of Friday night, Boden is also happy to showcase a new Gravel Fondo on Sunday morning. “Gravel is a rapidly growing crosssection of cycling, we hope to expand this program and venture into cyclocross also.”
The bill fits for Boden (who hosted Isbell for Gears & Guitars 2018). “We’re paying homage to playing covers of songs that are great songs but not always covered,” Boden said, “it’ll be fun. But Deluge and Crenshaw are the real stars of the show.”
“There are field limits to the pro-racing, so we usually have about 250 pros each year here to race — and should be near that again for 2022. In the amateur events, we usually get close to 1,000 participants and many cross-register for di erent rides and races. It’ll be a great weekend.”
Get on your bikes and ride to WinstonSalem for the Gears & Guitars Festival, September 9-11. !
Cobler is equally excited for the first show with Repeat O ender. Pushing the alternative 90’s vibe, the group serves as a deep-cut sort of cover band. ”We’re definitely trying to do something a little di erent,” he explained. “Artists you know, like The Wallflowers, Tom Petty, or REM — but maybe not the songs you always hear from them. And then maybe some artists you don’t hear covered as much, like Jason Isbell or the Lemonheads.”
Lasting impressions and a love for the locals create a showcase dynamic of Triad musicians paired with major artists. “I love doing this because we have some talented musicians in this town,” Boden said, “ in the case of Crenshaw Pentecostal, I’ve used them several times to support national acts and they have rocked it every time.”
“I’m looking forward to people coming down and enjoying all of the cool stu we have planned,” he said of the community block party at Bailey Park, with parade and rodeos (and bands, of course). “It’s going to be a nice day for people to gather and see some cool displays, or go on one of our rides and see and hear some good local music.”
“This is my 35th year in the bike business and I truly love seeing the joy it brings folks,” Cobler said. “Events like Gears & Guitars help expose even more people to how amazing bike racing is and how much fun bikes Outsideare.”the festival, Cobler can be found around Forsyth County cycling shops and helps manage the Winston-Salem Cycling bike-share program. ”I love seeing it grow and evolve,” he said of the festival and the city. “The constant at Gears & Guitars is always great music and incredible bike racing. I’m really excited about this year — all the concerts are free and the racing is always spectacular.”Onstage,he’ll open the Sunday day party with Repeat O ender, a brand new cover band (that also features Boden in the fold).
Redmon isn’t the only performer pulling a double, Michael Cobler will play in both Repeat O ender and Killing Gophers. As a longtime member of the Winston-Salem Cycling community, he’ll be pulling a triple of sorts: as part of the team manning the mini-velodrome demonstrations and perhaps participating in a competition or two.
And Triad residents seem to agree, having voted the festival the “Best Live Show of 2021,” in the YES! Weekly reader poll. That lineup featured The Smithereens, Fastball, Magnolia Green, Gov’t Mule, Devon Gilfillian, Ida Mae, and Grace Potter with Hannah Wicklund. “I’m always thankful for any accolades and attention we get from the public,” he said. “It means a lot to us and helps us see that we are making a di erence in our community.”
“I think it’s a great event that has brought so many di erent types of folks downtown,” he continued. “The festival certainly highlights Bailey Park and the Innovation Quarter, but we started on Trade Street and have raced all over the city and out in the county — and even to several of the neighboring counties.”
He’s especially stoked for the “Streets of Fire” event to make its debut on Friday. “It’s going to be super fun and a totally new thing for us with street racing,” Boden said.

As a director for both the Gears & Guitars and the Coalpit Live music series, Boden is a fan who puts his city first — seeing both as a mission and means of helping folks embrace the city, while helping make WinstonSalem the music capital of the region.
And the bands seem to enjoy themselves, with the main acts on Saturday all being return features. 2022 will be Better Than Ezra’s third time at Gears and Guitars. Their first visit was in 2014, followed by a 2016 appearance. Cowboy Mouth also played at the 2016 festival. Tonic played in 2017.But Gears & Guitars isn’t stuck in the ‘90s. “We try to bounce genres around,” Boden noted, referencing the array of Americana, indie, country, jam and more that filled the bills over the years. “I’ve enjoyed every show we have had, even with all the different genres we have been lucky to have nothing but great performances from every band each year,” he added, reflecting on the array of past festival performers like Shovels & Rope, DeltaRae, Trampled by Turtles, The Infamous Stringdusters, DriveBy Truckers, North Mississippi Allstars, Gov’t Mule, Charley Crockett, Amanda Shires, Rusted Root, and the Wailers.
The race itself is a 200-meter sprint from point A to point B, along the “restaurant row” that borders Innovation Quarter. “It’s basically bike drag racing,” he said. “It’s going to be wild.”
Cobler’s primary rock n roll band, Killing Gophers, is in the third-band slot. “So psyched to be playing this year! Both bands are primed and ready to go!,” he said, noting Killing Gophers will debut a few new songs. They’ll also be joined by Steven Jones (Ledneck) and Uncle Watson’s Widow for a song and will show o their new “pet” gopher mascot (courtesy of Ian Bredice).
The Sunday Fondo series will match the more casual approach of day party vibes.
Bringing in the gear-action, the festival features star cyclists along with music performers. “Many of the pros have been in the Tour de France or the Olympics, and are just incredible athletes,” Boden noted.
Crenshaw Pentecostal FRIDAY&SUNDAY SUNDAY
For Boden, hosting Jason Isbell & the 400 Unit in 2018 remains a highlight. “The concert certainly stands out to me,” he said, reflecting fondly on that year. “But, also, Colony House and Liza Anne really left impressions on me.”
“Running the two events concurrently certainly isn’t easy,” Boden said. “But it’s exciting and a challenge I very much enjoy. I love providing additional entertainment options for people to come out and to expose them to cycling.”

KATEI CRANFORD is a Triad music nerd who enjoys spotlighting artists and events.
“My best memories from the event come from when I introduce the bands from the stage and I see all the faces of people I know, or are about to know. There’s so much excitement on their faces for the music that’s about to be performed for them. And then I see them watch the bikes rip by — and I often watch them mouth the words ‘wow’ when they see how incredible some of these athletes are” The music over the years has leaned heavily on the 90’s alternative mix, with artists like Stone Temple Pilots, Dishwalla, Matthew Sweet, Soul Asylum, Blues Traveler, Collective Soul, Barenaked Ladies, Edwin McCain, Gin Blossoms, Sister Hazel, and Drivin’ N’ Cryin filling the rosters of past festivals. “It’s not a lane we intentionally drive down,” Boden noted, “but it’s always fun and that time period provided all of us with some great music that most all of us can sing along with.”

On Thursday, Nakita Crenshaw told Triad City Beat reporter Sayaka Matsuoka that one of the other pas sengers, whom Crenshaw described as 14 years old, told her that her brother had driven into a dead end and was trying to back out when he hit the police car. “He said it wasn’t a huge hit,” Crenshaw told Matsuoka.Then,according to the alleged witness, an officer shot the teenage driver once in the neck and twice more in the chest. The statement by GPD appears to describe Crenshaw being shot after the vehicle he was driving struck a patrol car, and does not state whether there were any officers in his path when he acceler ated and was killed. Speakers at the rally in front of the Melvin Municipal Building addressed this question.“Dukewas 17 years old,” said WHOA’s Ian McDowell
Marchers call for justice after GPD killing of 17-year-old “Who did they murder?” shouted Michael Harris, the Black Lives Matter organizer known as Activist Pressure, to the marchers he was leading through downtown Greens boro Friday evening. “Duke Crenshaw!” shouted the crowd of roughly 100 as they turned from Washington onto Elm Street, where diners looked up from tables outside res taurants at Liberty Oak, Natty Greene’s, and“HowCrafted.oldwas he?” boomed Harris, continuing the call-and-response chant. “Seventeen!” replied the marchers. “Jus tice for Duke Crenshaw!” shouted Harris, to which the protesters responded, “If we don’t get it, shut it down!” The march was part of an “All Eyes on Greensboro Police” rally co-organized by Sunrise Movement Greensboro and the Working Class & Houseless Organiz ing Alliance (WHOA), which began at 7 p.m. outside the city’s Melvin Municipal Building at 300 W. Washington Street. Carrying signs and engaging in call-andresponse chanting, protesters marched through the city’s Entertainment District for almost two hours, before returning to Government Plaza. There was no vio lence. Officers in patrol cars with flashing blue lights observed and followed the march, but did not engage with it, and there were no arrests.
An August 22 media release from the Greensboro police department alleged that the following then occurred: “While the officer was attempting to detain the vehicle and remaining oc cupants, the suspect vehicle struck the police car. The vehicle then accelerated, and the officer discharged their weapon. The driver was pronounced deceased at the scene.”
The protest was over the latest fatal shooting of an unarmed suspect by a Greensboro police officer. This time, the victim was a Black teenager.

GPD later updated this information by stating that the two other occupants of the vehicle at the time Crenshaw was killed were a 17-year-old and a 15-yearold.They have not released the names of those passengers, or of the ones who al legedly fled on foot at the initial stop. Nor did they release the name of the victim, but his sisters Nakita Crenshaw and Shevontia Doriety, both of Fay etteville, have confirmed it. Doriety has created a GoFundMe, “PLEASE HELP US LAY OUR BROTHER TO REST,” for her sib ling’s funeral expenses. His service will be held Saturday at the Wiseman Mortuary Chapel in Fayetteville.
At around 9 p.m. on Sunday, August 21, a car driven by 17-year-old Nasanto “Duke” Crenshaw, a resident of Hope Mills, NC, was stopped for a traffic infraction in the 4900 block of West Market Street. During the stop, the car was determined to have been stolen from an address in Fayetteville. Several individu als fled from the car, but Crenshaw and two other minors remained in the vehicle.

The incident report, which only describes the recovery of a stolen vehicle belonging to Jasmine DeNae McQueen of Fayetteville and does not mention an o cer-involved shooting, gives the address from which the car was recovered as 4903 West Market Street. That is the parking lot of Dollar General, just east of Fanta-City International Shopping Center.Thename of the o cer who signed the report on the vehicle’s recovery was released on social media by activists who implied she may have been the shooter. This provoked a response from Greensboro police information o cer Josie Cambareri, who called that claim false and irresponsible. Cambareri said the o cer who signed the report was not the one who shot Crenshaw, and that the GPD was not at this time releasing the name of the o cer who did.
During the ensuing march through downtown Greensboro’s Entertainment District, marchers carried a banner with the words NO MORE STOLEN LIVES and the names of men and women killed by the police, both in the Triad and across the nation. These included Amadou Diallo, Mike Brown, Eric Garner, Marcus Deon Smith, and in the bottom left corner, Nasanto “Duke” Crenshaw. !
“It looks like we’ve got the numbers and it looks like everybody here is not exactly pro-police. We’re gonna march and demonstrate that people will react. This is just the beginning.”
IAN MCDOWELL is the author of two published novels, numerous anthologized short stories, and a whole lot of nonfi ction and journalism, some of which he’s proud of and none of which he’s ashamed of.
In recent social media posts and speeches, WHOA has been criticizing recently-elected District 3 city council member Zack Matheny, who is also president of Downtown Greensboro Inc., whom the organization alleges is behind recent GPD attempts to move the homeless community out of Center City Park.
then acknowledged the size and mood of the crowd.
Before leading the march, Harris also spoke. The NC-based Harris has taken part in other protests against police violence across the nation, including one on July 8 in Akron, Ohio over the killing of Jayland Walker by that city’s police. Social media video from the Akron protest shows Harris being held by two o cers who restrain his arms while a third repeatedly punches him in the head and“Thereface. are too many of these,” said Harris. “We want to give our respect to the family, the organizations that put this together, and a shout-out to you all that’s here today to stand together for justice. There’s got to be some accountability when o cers do this. They sit there at a desk and continue to work on the force after they do this stu . We gotta turn our pain into policy.”
“When information was first coming out, we got the name of the only o cer that was named in the incident reports,” said WHOA’s Sean Brandt at the Friday night rally. “Later on, the police department and one news source very kindly made sure to tell us how much that ocer feared for their life. It makes me wonder how much poor working people fear for their lives when cops come knocking on their doors to kick them out of their houses. It makes me wonder how much our community down there in Center City has to fear for their lives when those squad cars come rolling through.”
Luis Medina. “Some of the journals have reported that he used his car as a weapon. He bumped into a police car. How many of you have bumped into another car? Does a 17-year-old deserve to die from making a mistake?”
“If you dress up in the uniform of a murderer and you stand beside and support other murderers, you should fear for your life. Only when they do that are we no longer going to have to fear for ours.” Medina then took the megaphone and asked for help in identifying the o cer who killed Crenshaw. “If there’s any video cam footage, this city is going to fucking crumble. Let us see the tape! We live in a world where we are told police protect our children and protect us. They take our tax dollars and ride on our streets. Do they pay for those streets? Do they build those streets? They take their tax dollars and stick them in their guns and they shootMedinaus.”
“And it makes me wonder how much Duke Crenshaw feared for his life when a cop decided to execute him in that car,” continued Brandt, who then addressed statements made by Amiel Rossabi, attorney for the Greensboro Police O cers Association, that misidentification of the o cer who signed the incident report as the shooter had caused her to fear for her life.

Full moon fever at the West Salem Art Hotel
Celebrating their community — both old and new — the Full Moon Festival unites a collection of art and agriculture vendors, live musicians, and interactive artplay — all under a big ol’ Harvest moon.Coordinator, Tessa Everton, intends to continue the Wherehouse’s pattern of holding events during the full moon. “It’s helpful when timelines and deadlines and things naturally unfold in tune with the waxing moon,” she said. “This will be our first big event since the pandemic started, and we’re especially excited to show o the new space!” Thompson, a West Salem resident, agreed. “I adore this new space — I’m very grateful to the building owner Brice Shearburn for welcoming all of my crazy ideas and helping me achieve an ambitious“Rightvision.”now my favorite part is the solarium,” she continued, “all covered in vines and art.” Thompson likewise enjoys the balance of a neighborhood only three minutes from downtown, with quiet nights and rooster crows in the morning.
“Inmoon.”thespirit of the Harvest moon, we‘ve chosen to highlight the agricultural arts,” Everton explained, praising the work and spaces of their neighbors West Salem Public House and the Apple & Green City Farm (who’ll be selling baskets for their pick-your-own cherry tomato garden). Plant vendor, Patiently Rooted, will also be on hand with buds and wares; and the festival will feature a “Pot on the Spot” plant-potting tutorial. “It’s meant

Open for tours throughout the festival, renovations are underway for the upstairs area, which will feature a gallery space, a shared kitchen, and four en-suites.“OurOutdoor Art Film Viewings have been very popular there,” Thompson said, referencing the smaller-scale events they’ve held so far. “Our monthly miniflea’s have been a ‘small-bites’ taste of theThefestival.”trioof festival organizers hope to appeal to a wide range of art lovers and moon freaks. “It will be a wide variety of curated craft and visual art vendors, o ering something unique for everyone, at many di erent price points,” said vendor coordinator, Lindsay Piper PotterFigueiredo. “I’ve had the pleasure of experiencing the spirit of Winston-Salem through the artistic lens. We believe in the magic of community. We hope this event will showcase the local love that flows through this neighborhood.” They hope to share that love through supporting and showcasing area nonprofits including: the Piedmont Environmental Alliance; Art Nouveau (a program by the Arts Council of Winston-Salem and Forsyth County), the UNC-School of the Arts Community Music School (who’ll be hosting a kid-friendly demonstration) and the Art SHAC, a second-hand nonprofit collective that o ers access to a ordable art materials through donations and upcycling workshops, who’ll also o er interactive art activities.
“We’re always motivated by community and in the past two years it has been di cult to connect in the ways that we’ve been used to,” Thompson said. “West Salem is our new home and it is time to turn the page and make new connections with a new community — all under a big full

And of course, there’ll be food for the harvest. Mary Haglund (from Mary’s, Of Course and Mary’s Gourmet Diner) is making a special appearance, along with El Burrito Bueno, Acadia Foods, and Sweetheart Pizza. Mixing art and commerce — with flare — Thompson is stoked for the flame poofer coming from Mixxer Community Makerspace, which fires up after each successful transaction.
