GRANITE VIEWS JODY REESE

A sad goodbye We lost a friend Sun-

day night. Denise Roberts, a longtime Union Leader sales rep, friend and friend-ly competitor, was shot and killed in Manchester as she was out walking. Not much

more is known right now. We are in shock that this could happen

in New Hampshire to anyone, especially Denise, who was such a kind person.

Media sales is a tough business. But in her long career, Denise kept a smile and a genuinely great attitude. Denise first start-ing working in ad sales in 1983 for George and Dee Little, who published the Goffstown News and other weekly newspapers around Manchester. That company was purchased by the Union Leader in 1993 and headed for a time by our very own Jeff Rapsis.

But you didn’t have to be a co-worker to know Denise. She was everywhere in Man-chester — a constant figure at local businesses, running in to get ads or see about changes.

We’re heartbroken and will miss her dearly. We extend condolences to her many siblings and family members, and to all who knew her, worked with her and appreciated her.

Manchester Crimeline is offering a $7,500 reward (with the help of the Union Leader Corp.) for information that leads to the cap-ture and conviction of the person or persons responsible. If you know of anything, please call 603-624-4040. All tips are anonymous.

A new path for our powerThough it’s getting cheaper to install solar

panels, New Hampshire utilities are nearing their cap for accepting power generated at people’s homes. This is also called net meter-ing, and it’s one of the huge draws of people adding solar panels. It allows people to “sell” excess power when the sun is shining to the power grid. In New Hampshire, the total amount that the utilities are required to buy is 2 percent of the power used in the state. Mas-sachusetts allows about 4 percent of its power to be created by “independent power genera-tions facilities”— your home’s solar panels.

These caps exist for good reason. The grid is expensive to maintain and selling power back to the grid doesn’t help defray the cost of maintaining that power grid that all users (even those with solar panels) need.

It is a balancing act to both encourage heavier use of solar power and maintain the grid, just as it is with using the gas tax to pay for roads when more cars are not using gas to drive those roads.

The New Hampshire Public Utilities Com-mission should get ahead of these coming changes and create a new way to pay for the grid while also increasing the amount of pow-er the utilities must buy back from consumers with solar panels.

Primary updateAfter weeks of speculation,

Vice President Joe Biden is looking more likely than ever to announce his candidacy for president. CNN reported sourc-es close to Biden believe an announcement will happen in the first week of October. He met with Democratic Sen. Eliz-abeth Warren earlier in August, which many believe suggests he’s feeling out prominent party members about his possible bid. And sources told Al Jazeera that Biden has been quietly assem-bling a 2016 campaign team. Biden has been grieving the loss of his son Beau, who died in May.

Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton is poised to receive a major endorsement from New Hampshire Sen. Jeanne Shaheen in the coming days. The Clinton campaign announced the endorsement will take place in Portsmouth on Sept. 5. She’s had several New England governors stump-ing for her, including Vermont Gov. Peter Shumlin, NHPR reported. And the New York Times reported the New Hamp-shire Democratic Party was one of four state parties to sign joint fundraising agreements with Clinton. Some feel this shows tacit endorsement, but officials

with the state party told the Times they are willing to sign similar agreements with other Democratic candidates.

Meanwhile, former Mary-land Gov. Martin O’Malley has struggled to catch the lime-light, consistently trailing behind Clinton and Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders. The Con-cord Monitor reported he made his eighth trip to New Hamp-shire recently with several house parties and town halls. He repeatedly highlights his 15 years of executive experience between his tenure as governor and mayor of Baltimore as a dif-ferentiator from his Democratic opponents. The AP reported that Sanders said he would be willing to use military force if circumstances demanded it.

Republican candidates have been campaigning all across the state, including Florida Sen. Marco Rubio, who was absent for more than a month. At a stop in Littleton, he told voters they should expect to see more of him, NHPR reported. New Jer-sey Gov. Chris Christie was also seen around the state, including in Manchester, where he took the stage at a weekend rally to take aim at heroin addiction. In the coming days, Texas Sen. Ted Cruz, Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul and Ohio Gov. John Kasich are expected to make several appearances.

Northern PassAbout 5,000 acres of land

bought up by Eversource Ener-gy when it was Public Service of New Hampshire is back on the table for a number of pos-sible uses with the latest power line route change announced for Northern Pass. The Union Leader reported that the pow-er company acquired land and easements in the North Coun-try during a three-year buying spree for an original route. But after the first route change was announced in 2013, 5,000 acres of the land they bought was no longer needed. Now, the compa-ny is floating a few ideas for the land’s use such as recreation, economic development, natu-ral resource preservation and logging.

Prescriber trainingIn Bedford this coming

November, a new program designed to reduce the overpre-scription of opioid painkillers to patients will begin. NHPR reported it will train physicians to prescribe less of the highly addictive drugs. According to a report by the Centers for Dis-ease Control, New Hampshire ranked third after Maine and Delaware in overprescribing drugs like oxycodone and fen-tanyl. According to the CDC, those drugs are highly linked to heroin, with 45 percent of heroin addicts also addict-ed to prescription drugs. The training, which will be adminis-tered by the Boston University School of Medicine, is one of the 22 proposals made by the state’s drug czar.

E-ZPassAfter it was announced that

the original E-ZPass transpon-ders were nearing the end of their lives and would need to be replaced by Sept. 1, long lines were formed at E-ZPass stations. NHPR reported the Department of Transportation is extending that deadline to Nov. 1. As incentive to drivers to swap out their old transpon-ders, a discounted toll rate was offered for those who do it before the deadline. After the deadline, the new rate kicks in. Passenger vehicles will be giv-en a 30-percent discount while commercial vehicles will get a 10-percent discount. Transpon-ders purchased more than nine

years ago are nearing the end of their battery life.

N.H. FirefightersA team of 20 firefighters

from local stations across New Hampshire shipped out on a recent flight to battle a blaze in Montana, the Union Leader reported. Firefighters from the Granite State are already scat-

tered out west. Eight of them are currently working in Ida-ho, Oregon, Washington and California. Not all of them are fighting fires. Some are serv-ing as paramedics and EMTs. Twenty New Hampshire fire-fighters recently returned from helping put out forest fires in northern California.

A couple in Windham is ask-ing wedding guests to forego wedding gifts and donate to a cause that helps homeless LGBT youth. The Union Record-er of Georgia reported they hope to raise $1 million for the True Love Campaign.

A rally in Manchester tar-geting heroin addiction took place over the weekend. The Union Leader reported several friends and family members of addicts or those who died of overdoses shared their stories.

LIBERTARIAN PARTYA federal judge upheld a 2014 state law set-ting time limits on gathering signatures need-ed to have your political party listed on the ballot. The Concord Monitor reported this means the Libertarian Party’s effort to be in-cluded on the ballot has been dealt a serious blow. The aim of the law was to make sure only parties with significant support would be on the ballot. The judge found that to be rea-sonable and not discriminatory, ruling against the ACLU, which sued on behalf of the Lib-ertarian Party. Political parties must secure 15,000 signatures within about seven months under the new law.

FREQUENT MHT FLYERSA new program at the Manchester-Boston Re-gional Airport will make it easier for folks who frequently park at the airport’s parking areas. The AP reported the program, which began Sept. 1, will be called MHT FAST-PASS. It will allow drivers to quickly pass in and out of the parking lot or garage using a card that will automatically deduct payments from a debit or credit card. Users will be able to manage their accounts online and drive through a designated lane where sensors will be installed to scan the cards.

An active shooter drill took place Aug. 28 at Daniel Webster College in Nashua. The Telegraph of Nashua reported the drill included 37 responders from the city and 22 other agencies.

Ground gameHow local endorsements help presidential candidates

By Ryan [email protected]

When prominent locals vouch for a presidential candidate, they add credibility to the campaign, and the more endorse-ments the better — though some are more valuable than others.

Campaign fuelEndorsements for presidential candi-

dates — both how many and who they’re from — can tell us a lot about their chances of winning the party nomina-tion. FiveThirtyEight.com, the political blog known for relying on data for its reporting, calls this phenomenon “the endorsement primary,” because tradi-tionally the candidate with the most endorsements from members of Congress and governors ends up being the nom-inee. The blog even has a point system where members of the House are worth 1 point, Senators are worth 5 points and governors are worth 10.

Based on this, former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush is enjoying a narrow lead in the highly contested Republican race with 34 points so far. He has the most representa-tives and three senators backing him. New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie is in second place with 25 points from two governors and five Congressmen.

Interestingly, while Democratic can-didate Hillary Clinton appears to be in a close race with Vermont Sen. Bernie Sand-ers when polls are consulted, she has a whopping 320 points in national endorse-ments. Sanders has zero. Vice President Joe Biden has more points, and he’s not even officially running.

Local endorsementsEndorsements from New Hampshire

notables are a different ballgame. Republi-can strategist and former New Hampshire Attorney General Tom Rath said while all endorsements are about bolstering your legitimacy as a candidate, there’s more to it than that, especially at the local levels.

“I think what ... a local endorsement tends to do [is] ground the candidate with a couple of familiar faces so it’s not just a person from out of state coming in here, but somebody who has some folks known in the state who are vouching for them,” Rath said. “That adds credibility to the campaign and it grounds it a little bit in New Hampshire.”

Voters in the Granite State like it when a candidate takes the state seriously, and obtaining local endorsements sends the

message that they are doing so, according to Rath.

It also gets the candidate’s name in the paper.

“The other thing that an endorsement does ... is it gives a candidate a story dur-ing a news cycle,” Rath said. “It’s a way to drive coverage for a couple of days. … That’s one of the things you’re always looking to do in a campaign, is try to con-trol the flow of information.”

ScorecardsIt’s still too early to be making any

predictions based on the Fivethirtyeight scoring system or a scorecard of local endorsements since there are quite a few prominent individuals who have yet to make their choice. And with so many can-didates to choose from, folks are watching the Republican scorecards closely.

The Boston Globe posted an endorse-ment tracker online that shows Bush tied with Ohio Gov. John Kasich and for-mer HP CEO Carly Fiorina with six local endorsements each. But the same track-er lists more than 65 Republican officials and operatives who have not yet aligned themselves with anyone. Numbers like these can be deceiving, even with a major-ity decided, according to former New Hampshire Democratic party chair Kathy Sullivan.

“I don’t think that matters so much, saying, ‘I’ve got the most endorsements of people.’ That doesn’t mean anything,” Sullivan said. “What’s important is, do you have people endorsing you who actu-ally bring a level of respect, strategic advice [and] ability to get people to listen to them?”

Rath says the ideal endorsers are those who go beyond simply attaching their name to a candidate and giving their seal of approval. What a candidate really wants is an endorser who works for the cam-paign, making phone calls, appearing with the candidate and volunteering in other ways.

Who endorsesSullivan says the key endorsements from

the state will come from high-level elected officials and strategists. Both know what it takes to win in New Hampshire. Elected officials have a loyal following and, while in office, a ready staff to make phone calls on behalf of a candidate, while strategists bring a list of key connections with the right people and good advice.

“For example, a Jeanne Shaheen endorsement means a lot. A Maggie Has-

san endorsement would mean a lot,” Sullivan said. “If Kelly Ayotte were to endorse, I think that would add instant credibility to a candidate.”

Sullivan and Rath agree that people like Ayotte and Hassan are less likely to make an endorsement in the primary because they are up for election or reelection themselves.

“[Ayotte] is probably the single most sought-after endorsement of anybody in the cycle. She’s also probably the single least likely to endorse,” Rath said.

Mayor Ted Gatsas is another highly sought-after endorsement but will likely not weigh in until after the mayoral race concludes in the fall.

That said, there are still many who have yet to endorse a candidate.

“I think there’s plenty of ‘good gets’ still out there,” Rath said. “A lot of state senators, a lot of people who have been involved in party apparatus, a lot of busi-ness leaders and community leaders. There’s a lot of folks out there.”

Rath said the endorsement of former U.S. Sen. Judd Gregg is coveted by all Republicans in the race.

“He’s a highly respected and very popu-lar office holder,” Rath said.

A big fish such as Gregg would warrant a more serious meeting between the man and the candidate, as opposed to the typi-cally informal conversations, according to Sullivan.

“If I’m a candidate who would want his endorsement ... I would want to call and make arrangements to sit down and talk with him,” Sullivan said. “I think a little more effort would be made to sit down and have some private time to sit and talk about issues.”

And there are those working in the state’s political parties who do not have the luxury of endorsing a candidate during a primary. That includes party chairs and other paid staff members.

“Because it’s the New Hampshire pri-mary, because it’s first in the nation, we have an obligation to make sure that every candidate feels that they’re playing on a level playing field,” Sullivan said.

But, occasionally, a party chair will step down from their post in order to make an endorsement.

“Back in 1999 — in fact, how I became state party chair — I was the vice chair and Jeff Woodburn was the chair. Jeff called and said, ‘I’ve decided I’m gon-na have to step down because I want to endorse Al Gore.’ So he actually stepped down so he could do an endorsement,” Sullivan said.

Statesman statueMemorial being created for forgotten N.H. hero

By Ryan [email protected]

A new statue is going to be erected in front of the state library in Concord of for-mer New Hampshire Gov. John Gilbert Winant, a progressive Republican who later served as U.S. Ambassador to Great Britain during World War II — though the stigma of Winant’s suicide in 1947 led to the obscurity of his many accomplishments.

The statueVan McLeod, the state commissioner of

cultural resources, says the statue will depict Winant standing on the ground with jacket and hat in hand gesturing for the passerby to take a seat on a nearby bench that will be part of the memorial installation.

“Our concept from the very beginning was we didn’t want him up on a pedestal, because that was sort of against what he stood for to a large degree,” McLeod said.

He said both the statue and the bench will be made of bronze, and the statue will be about 6 feet 6 inches, only about 4 or 5 inches taller than the man himself. McLeod want-ed to emphasize the humanity of Winant by making him literally down to earth.

He said the artist hired to produce the work, Brett Grill of the University of Mis-souri, had a number of different images of Winant from different eras to choose from.

“He did an enormous amount of research, taking photographs and films, whether it was stuff that we had or that St. Paul’s School had,” McLeod said. “He actually stopped at the FDR library in upstate New York and found a lot more information.”

They settled on World War II-era Winant.

“Which is sort of what he’s best known for, if you will,” McLeod said.

The man“He was a lousy

speaker. He was not a good organizer or manager. He was not good with money. He failed at all those things from everything I’ve heard, but what he really succeeded at was to the core of what New Hampshire is all about,” McLeod said. “The reason he was governor for three terms, the reason he was a member of the House and the Sen-ate, and the reason he chose New Hampshire as the place to be after his stay at St. Paul’s

[School] and kept coming back, was because of the personal relationships that he created with the people.”

McLeod said Winant nurtured the trust of the people, simply by being kind and listening.

“People knew that he cared and that he would take care of them,” McLeod said.

McLeod said they’ve raised about $130,000 of the $290,000 needed to complete the proj-ect. He’s currently reaching out to oth-er former governors and ambassadors

for donations. McLeod said former Gov. Steve Merrill already wrote them a “sizeable check” for the project.

McLeod hopes to unveil the final prod-uct in June 2016, which for him is already past due.

“This is a man who’s been forgotten by history. And he’s been forgotten by history because of his suicide,” McLeod said.

NEWS & NOTES Q&A

Must love dogsLive and Let Live Farm partners with Pilots N Paws Teresa Paradis is the executive director and founder of the Live and Let Live Farm, an animal shelter in Chichester. She recently partnered with Pilots N Paws to deliv-er puppies to the farm by plane.

How long have you operated the rescue farm?

We were founded in ‘96, estab-lished here on Paradise Lane in

‘97 and became a 501c3 nonprofit in 2002.

When you first started, what was the mission of the shelter?

The mission’s always been the same. It’s just blossomed into a bush of roses instead of a single one or two.

What kind of the animals do you shelter?

In ‘97 I had five rescue horses and I was rescuing dogs, cats and parrots or what-ever needs us. In 2002, when we became incorporated as a nonprofit, we then had 20 horses and many other animals. Now, we average 60 to 70 horses at a time. We pres-ently have goats, potbelly pigs, mourning doves, cockatiels, guinea pigs, rabbits, a Canadian goose with a crooked bill, anoth-er goose that was just hit by a car and dropped off, a bunch of roosters, a bunch of laying hens … cattle. You never know what’s coming, knocking at our door for help. There’s a wild red-tailed hawk that calls it home here. … The first goose that we got was found with a deformed beak in somebody’s backyard, and he’s been with us for about three and a half years. … There’s a production company out of Can-ada that came down here to our farm and filmed for two days to make a movie out of Crooked Bill.

You recently received about 10 puppies by airplane. Can you tell me about that?

Pregnant dogs are the first to be eutha-nized in “kill towns” across the country. So, our focus has been rescuing pregnant dogs out of “kill towns.” Last year, we res-cued 21 pregnant dogs and we also rescued puppies that are found on the streets. … In total with the puppies and other dogs, 176 were rescued and adopted out. This year has been absolutely crazy. We just rescued our 33rd pregnant dog for this year and adopted out 314, so we’re almost double

last year, which was our biggest year. … One of the people who contacted me for help had 10 pup-pies who were being brought into a kill shel-ter, and puppies with no vaccines being brought into a kill shelter

means they’re gonna die. … They gave me an emergency call and said ‘Can you tag these 10 puppies?’ … When a rescue com-mits to saving animals it’s called the rescue “tagging” the animals. So I did. … [One of them] had a connection with Pilots N Paws. … And Pilots N Paws flew [the puppies] right in and met me at the Concord Airport with the puppies. It was wonderful.

Why do you have your eyes set on rescu-ing dogs from out of state?

When you get way down to like Geor-gia and Texas, a lot of their shelters are like 95- to 97-percent kill rate. To control the population, the first thing that’s killed is a pregnant dog coming in to them. It goes right out the back door to be euthanized. It’s really hard with our stringent laws to rescue them. … It has to be quarantined where it’s coming from for two weeks, it has to be clean of parasites and they have to get out-of-state health certificates to come to New Hampshire.

Do you expect to see more jet-setting canines arrive in New Hampshire?

We actually are seeing if there are any available pilots for the [weekend of Aug. 29]. … The same person who applied to us before … she knows whoever to send it to, a contact, and we’re trying to get some avail-able pilots to come in… with some puppies.

I understand you have a fun naming convention for the puppy litters?

Because there’s so many different groups of puppies, we have to have a name for them. So, the ones that Pilots N Paws brought … we didn’t know what to name them. Then we came up with the “Veggie” litter. So you got Squash and Tomato. So, if anybody wants to adopt Tomato, then we [document] ‘Puppy Tomato of the Veg-gie Litter’ so we can find where they came from. — Ryan Lessard

NEWS & NOTES

QUALITY OF LIFE INDEXLead paint removal

The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development is grant-ing the city of Manchester roughly $2.9 million to reduce hazardous exposure to lead paint. The HUD grant from the Lead Hazard Reduc-tion Demonstration Grant Program was announced by Sen. Jeanne Shaheen’s office. The money will help the Manchester Health Depart-ment and the housing nonprofit The Way Home to address hazards in 175 units in the city. NHPR reported most of the housing stock in the Queen City was built before 1978, when lead paint was banned by fed-eral law.

QOL Score: +1Comment: Manchester is one of 14 cities across the country to

receive similar grants.

Mental hospital delaysThe continuing budget stalemate between Gov. Maggie Hassan

and Republican lawmakers will delay the opening of a 10-bed men-tal health crisis unit at the state’s mental hospital. The AP reported the wing of New Hampshire Hospital was scheduled to open this fall, but the money needed to operate the facility is tied up in the new budget. The last budget had included money to build the crisis unit, but money for staff was going to be in the next biennial budget.

QOL Score: -1Comment: The delay puts continued strain on a mental health system

struggling to comply with the terms of a 2013 settlement that set bench-marks that a recent study reported the state is already failing to meet.

Apple seasonIt’s official — apple season is upon us. Gov. Maggie Hassan was set

to pick the first apple of the season at Mack’s Apple Farm on Sept. 2, which is New England Apple Day. And it’s going to be a good season, too, said numerous New England apple growers in a recent article by the Associated Press. According to the U.S. Apple Association, New England production is expected to be about 14 percent higher than last year’s crop, 18 percent above the region’s five-year average. Early spring and summer gave very little frost damage, though the mid-sum-mer drought might have affected some New Hampshire farmers.

QOL Score: +1Comment: Yum.

Goodbye railroad tiesThe railroad ties that were dumped along the roadside in Salem by

Iron Horse Preservation Society in 2012 — pulled as part of a devel-oping downtown railroad project, left there because the organization couldn’t afford to dispose of them — have finally been removed. The ties, which sat in piles on Route 28, angered lots of residents and town officials who said they were an “eyesore” in an Eagle Tribune article. Assistant town manager Leon Goodwin said the town is seeking reim-bursement in Rockingham Superior Court for the $40,000 it had to pay a Hudson firm to remove the ties.

QOL Score: +1Comment: A QOL boost for those who live in Salem or travel by

Route 28 regularly, but QOL worries the headache these ties have caused will disrupt the progress of the Salem rail trail development, which is why the ties were removed in the first place. Trail construction was supposed to be completed this fall but has been postponed because of rising, unexpected costs, according to the article.

SPORTS DAVE LONG’S LONGSHOTS

Clearing the decksWith a most unusual

sports summer coming to a close, let’s clear out what’s been gathering in my cluttered sports mind.

In lieu of the whining by the Indianapolis media over Deflate-gate and owner Jim Irsay’s push to keep Tom Brady’s

suspension at four games, how great is it that the Pats will have Colts all-timer Reggie Wayne wearing the flying Elvis when they go into Indy for the first time since Deflate-gate? And, as you probably know, if Brady’s suspension holds, that’s his first game back.

Not that you can really tell much from a pre-season record, but anyone else notice besides his brother Keith and me that after an off-season of nothing but upheaval Chip Kel-ly’s Eagles are 3-0?

Has there ever been anything invented that gets sports people in trouble more often than Twitter? Curt Schilling is the latest after his tweet likening the percent of Germans who became Nazis to the percent of Muslims that become extremists. ESPN of course suspend-ed him immediately.

Truth, when it comes to the punishment handed out by the people the tweeters answer to, apparently doesn’t really matter, just the perception of what’s being said. Like Ohio State suspending QB Cardale Jones for a game after tweeting that going to class was “pointless.” Considering the high number of dregs his coach Urban Meyer had playing under him at Florida and OSU’s graduation record of their “student-a-tha-letes” over the years in football, it sure seems that’s how the powers think too. They just don’t want the public thinking that way, that’s all.

Having said that, on the field it’s Meyer and Nick Saban among coaches in the col-lege game and then there’s everyone else.

The Red Sox need to use their payroll advantage to swipe a top starter from a team needing payroll relief like in their deals for Pedro (Montreal), Schilling (Arizona) and Josh Beckett (Florida). So how about Pab-lo Sandoval (eating $10 million per, yuck) to third base-needy San Diego with Matt Barnes and Wade Miley for James Shields and Craig Kimbrel? And if you’re wonder-ing, Mookie goes to third and JBJ to center.

Here’s another one: Hanley Ramirez (to DH), Travis Shaw, Brian Johnson and Deven Marrero or Brock Holt to Chicago in a package for Jose Abreu? Only works if the Chi-Sox are ready for a rebuild.

Do the Glory Johnson-Brittney Griner marital fisticuffs finally put to rest the myth that the male is always the aggressor and/or accelerator in domestic assault cases? And giv-en the overwhelming physical advantage the

6’8” Grenier has on the 6’3” Johnson, where’s the usual justifiable moral outrage for that?

Guess Steve Kerr made the right decision going to Golden State rather than work for his old coach Phil Jackson as coach of the Knicks where he would have had to run Jax’s beloved tri-angle. Guess he figured good players mean a lot more than running an over-rated offensive system that hasn’t won squat with any of his disciples or when Michael Jordan, Shaq or Kobe weren’t running it.

This is a little late, but it got big play when Pedro’s book came out earlier in the summer. But, with all due respect to Don Zimmer, 72 years old or not, what was Pedro supposed to do when Zim came rampaging right at him during the wild scene in Game 3 of the 2003 ALCS besides shuck him aside?

Thumbs down to Syracuse football for un-retiring the number 44 worn by its great running backs Jimmy Brown, Ernie Davis and Floyd Little. I get the idea it’s nice to see a “special player” wear it, but how do you determine that? It seems like an entitlement thing if given to a freshman or, worse, as a recruiting perk, and switching the number of an upperclassman seems contrived.

Warning to Houston’s James Harden, now that he appears headed to being the lat-est victim of the Kardashian Klan by dating Chloe: As Reggie Bush, Kris Humphries, Lamar Odom, OJ Simpson and Bruce Jen-ner can tell you, it’s all downhill for sports people who get mixed up with that family.

Spurs assistant Becky Hammon’s per-formance in NBA summer leagues was impressive. The first female to coach in any NBA role led SA to the title in the 23-team Vegas League. And since the Spurs aren’t exactly loaded with lottery picks, coaching probably had something to do with it.

The latest in the unending string of athletes acting badly and being saved by their talent is Ty Lawson. His reward for being DUI’d twice in five months was to get out of headed-for-the-lottery Denver in a trade that sent him to point guard-needy NBA contender Hous-ton five days after his second arrest. Wonder what the prize will be if he gets a third DUI?

Was Cole Hamels, who threw one at the Cubs five days earlier, the first guy ever trad-ed immediately after throwing a no-hitter in his last game for the team that dumped him?

Finally, while I don’t think the Sox owe anyone an explanation, I urge all to sign the online petition to save Don Orsillo’s job after his ousting at NESN as Red Sox broadcast-er. Given how seamlessly he worked with 29 different color guys during the many Jerry Remy absences, this seems almost as “it ain’t broke, don’t fix it” dumb as changing Coke’s formula when it was the most popular drink in the world in the 1980s.

The Drive: This baby is a bear. It’s just 400 yards from the white tees but it seems like 600 because it’s straight uphill all the way. (1) To get par you need a solid drive to anywhere in the fairway to hopefully reach the crown of the first hill. (2) From there, it’s a long iron for most and better be straight as there are bunkers on the left and right. Go long and it’s a downhill chip that makes it almost impossible to get close to the pin no matter what you do.

The Green: As tough as it is to get to the green, here’s where the real fun starts. It’s has a big slope from right to left that brings almost every miss 15 feet passed the cup when it’s at the upper right of the green. That makes being below the hole vital, though even still – you’ve still got big breaks going up as well. This is one of the state’s best par 4’s so par, is a job well done.

Sports GlossaryJimmy Brown: While his career record wearing 44 at Syracuse was “just” 17-10-

1, Brown’s arrival sparked the beginning of a great period for SU football. He ran for 982 yards in an eight-game season his senior year and averaged 6.2 per carry. The sig-nature games were running for 197 yards and 6 TDs in a 61-7 rout of Colgate when he also kicked seven PAT, good for 43 points on the day, and running for 132 vs. TCU in the Cotton Bowl when he had 3 TDs and 3 PATs. And all he did after leaving the ’Cuse was become the greatest player in NFL history.

Ernie Davis: The second great SU 44, became the first African-American to win the Heisman Trophy in 1961. He tragically died of leukemia before being able to join Brown in Cleveland’s backfield after being drafted by Washington in ’62 and then flipped for Hall of Famer Bobby Mitchell. At Syracuse he went 26-5, including an 11-0 national championship team in 1959, which was, oh by the way, quarterbacked by local lad Don Sarette.

Floyd Little: Third in the line of great 44s during the glory years of Syracuse foot-ball and only three-time All-American ever at SU. During that time he ran for 2,750, had 51 catches for another 591 yards and scored 39 TDs. He finished fifth in the Heis-man voting in 1965 and 1966 before being selected fifth overall by Denver in the first combined NFL-AFL draft in 1967.

SPORTS DAVE LONG’S PEOPLE, PLACES & OTHER STUFF

Upheaval at Saint AnselmThe Big Story: It’s what’s going on up on

the hill, where Saint Anselm mysterious-ly lost another athletic director last week when interim AD Phil Rowe resigned just two weeks after taking the job. And there is the expected move to be a Division III program that seems to have a number of the alums up in arms after getting an email from Keith Dickson to his basketball alums calling that move a “sad, sad day.”

Sports 101: Who holds the major-league record for most home runs hit in September?

Big Story II: It’s the return of high school sports season. Football kicks off locally with an assault from Nashua teams as Bedford, Memorial and Central take on Nashua North (home), Nashua South (home) and (at) Bishop Guertin respec-tively on Friday night, while West and Trinity do battle on the west side of town. All the other sports including soccer mean-while played their first slate of games all through last week.

Hot Ticket: It’s the opener for the sev-enth-ranked UNH football team vs. San Jose St. on the left coast Thursday, Sept. 3. Game time is 10 p.m. and the action can

be heard on the Wildcat Radio Network. Out-of-Town Scores: Speaking of the

U, they have a weird 2015 schedule. It kicks off with three on the road at San Jose, Colgate and Stoney Brook. Then it’s two at home vs. Central Conn. and Elon of North Carolina before a bye. After that it’s two on the road vs. nemesis William & Mary and Delaware, two at home vs. URI and Richmond, and a road game vs. Alba-ny before the annual rivalry game with Maine in Durham.

Sports 101 Answer: The September homer record is 17 by Babe Ruth and Albert Belle. Ruth needed all 17 to set his famous single-season record of 60 in 1927. Belle did it in 1995 while becoming the only one to ever have 50 homers (50) and doubles (52) in a season.

On This Date – Sept. 3: 1928 – Ty Cobb got his 4,191th and final career hit. 1931 – Dick Motta, NBA coach who originated the phrase “It’s not over till the fat lady sings,” is born. 1957 – Warren Spahn sets record for a lefty pitcher with 41st shutout. 1977 – Japanese slugger Sada-haru Oh hits 756th HR to surpass Hank Aaron’s total.

The Numbers 5 – goals scored by Bed-

ford and none allowed in a 5-0 win over Central to open the soccer seasons when Richard D’Amico had two goals and an assist to lead the way.

6 – goals scored by a picking-up-where-she-left-off Gabi Brummett to go along with two assists in leading Derryfield to an

11-1 romp over Pittsfield in the Cougars’ opening day win.

15 – number Reggie Wayne will wear for the Patriots in the coming year after wearing 87 while being their nemesis the previ-ous 14 years playing for the Colts.

34 – low score carded at Derryfield CC by Memo-rial’s Garrett Oliver in a three-way match to open the

2015 NHIAA golf season when Keene was the winner at 198 and Memorial second a stroke behind followed by Alvirne at 212.

39 – low match scores carded by the Bedford duo of Tim (9½) Weeks and Sean McGadden to lead the Bulldogs to a 204 combined score to top Spaulding (230) and Nashua North (234) at Rochester CC.

Of all the things one would expect

to see in a car dealership, a collection of Muhammad Ali sports memorabilia

isn’t one of them. But that’s what you’ll find at Merchants Automotive Group in Hooksett.

Stephen Singer, Merchants president emeritus, first heard of Ali in the early 1960s when Ali was on the U.S. Olympic boxing team, before he became the heavyweight champion of the world.

“But our real interest came when he became a goodwill ambassador and used his success in the box-ing world as a springboard to make the world a better place,” Singer said in a phone interview. “Based on a similar philosophy and hoping that our success here could be used to make our community a better place, Ali became a role model for me personally.”

For the past 35 years, Singer’s collection of Ali memorabilia has been displayed in the dealership, partly because he wanted to share it with the community, and partly because it outgrew the space he had for it in his house.

A longtime sports memorabilia collector, Singer didn’t originally intend to create such a singularly focused attraction. He started with an Ali item or two, and then others saw his collection and decided to contribute.

“The collection just grew and I ended up, based on research, deciding to focus solely on Ali as opposed to some of the other col-lections I had,” Singer said.

He has over 75 pieces of Ali memorabil-ia. He said one of the most interesting is an

X-ray of Ali’s broken jaw, sustained in a fight against Ken Norton.

“The piece is presented in a lit shadow box so you would see the X-ray as if you were in your doctor’s office,” he said. “And it is hand signed by Ali and Norton.”

Another treasure is a com-pilation of signatures from

Ali’s opponents. “Ali had 50 opponents during his

career, and about 10 years ago I set out to get the autograph of every one

of those fights,” he said.Four years later he had 49 signatures, only

missing Jim Robinson, a little-known fighter. — Allie Ginwala

Take a trip to the Tuck Museum in Hamp-ton and you’ll find five buildings filled with local Seacoast history, like exhibits high-lighting the area’s early industry, a 1930s tourist cabin from Hampton Beach and a small research library. Contrary to popular belief, one thing you won’t find is an urn with the ashes of accused Hampton witch Eunice “Goody” Cole.

In the “early Hampton” corner of the museum sits an urn that many visitors think contains the ashes of Goody Cole, a woman accused of witchcraft three times who was taken to court and alleg-edly convicted in the late 1650s.

“That is again a misconception,” Executive Director Betty Moore said of the urn. “The ashes are from the court papers and dirt from her home site.”

In 1938, the “Society in Hampton for the Apprehension of Those Falsely Accusing Eunice ‘Goody’ Cole of Having Familiarity with the Devil” organized an event to clear Cole’s name.

“With the radio era, this became big news in 1938,” Moore said. “There was a group formed to exonerate Goody Cole and in order to promote the 200th anniversary of the town of Hampton, they decided to give Goody Cole back her citizenship.”

The ceremony was held at Hampton Beach with Harry Houdini’s wife as the guest of honor. Goody Cole paraphernalia was sold at the event and certified copies of her court documents were burned. Cole’s story and the event was featured in national newspapers.

In the Tuck Museum’s section of Goody Cole artifacts is a vial from the ceremony

allegedly filled with dirt from her home site, a Goody Cole doll and com-

memorative coin from the ceremony, newspapers clip-pings surrounding the highly publicized event, a script from a radio show about Cole, chapters of books from scholars who have written

about witchcraft in New Eng-land, and of course the urn.

“These things bring people to the museum all the time but they’re myths,” Moore said of the ash-

es. “[But] that’s what makes us unique. If Goody Cole is what gets people in the door, then that’s the way it is.” — Allie Ginwala

Daniel Webster, a leading Amer-ican senator and spokesperson for American nationalism, was born in

Salisbury, New Hampshire, in 1782. You can see where he grew up at the

historic site dedicated to him, 131 North Road, Franklin (934-5057). Inside the small secluded log cabin is an indoor fireplace, antique cookware, an old spin-ning wheel and old furniture, according to nhstateparks.org. Though much is believed to be original, the fireplace, attached wood-shed and well were all rebuilt or restored.

Webster was the son of Abigail and Ebene-zer Webster, whose graves, among many other Websters’, are just down the road.

Ebenezer Webster sold the farm in 1785 to move to more fertile land near the Mer-rimack River. The property passed through several owners until Judge George Smith gave it back to Daniel Webster in 1851.

The historic site is open Saturdays and Sundays, May 23 through Oct. 12, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Admission is $4 for New Hampshire adults ages 18 to 64, free for everyone else.

— Kelly Sennott

Tucked away on a small island at the con-fluence of the Contoocook and Merrimack rivers in Boscawen is a national treasure. The statue seems almost hidden from sight and the public consciousness, but it is a fasci-nating piece of history.

As Elaine Clow, historian for the Boscaw-en Historical Society, explains, it’s the first statue of a real-life, non-allegorical woman in the United States.

“The monument itself is the first monument [depicting] a woman in the United States. It was dedicated in 1874,” Clow said.

But Clow said it wasn’t dedicated to the woman it depicts, Hannah Duston; it’s dedicated to the courage and valor of American mothers.

The story of Hannah Duston is shrouded in mystery, hyperbole and cultural narratives linked inextricably to the time when Duston lived and the time when the statue was commissioned.

Clow said the statue commemorates an event in 1697, when Duston, her newborn child and midwife were rousted from their home in Haverhill by a raiding party of Canadian Abenaki natives.

Duston and the nurse were to be sold as slaves in Canada, but the child was murdered by someone in the raiding party.

“The husband and the other children man-aged to escape to another fort,” Clow said.

Several days later, Duston returned home with her nurse and a handful of Indian scalps.

“We have the actual documents of a tex-tual diary [written by Judge Samuel Sewell] that happened after the event,” Clow said.

But those documents don’t shed much light on what led to Duston’s escape and how she came to obtain the scalps.

As the story goes, Duston was overcome with rage over the murder of her newborn, snatched a tomahawk and began killing the raiders with the help of the midwife and a

14-year-old boy. It was a massacre. When they were finished, they had killed and scalped 10 of the 12 Indians who captured them.

The scalps served as a sort of proof, but they were also used to collect bounties back then.

Clow says it’s important to remember that this took place during King William’s War, the first of six colonial proxy wars between

New France and New England fought largely between Protes-

tant and Catholic kings. Both sides employed native allies in the skirmishes.

That particular war began when William, a Protestant, took the English throne after the

Catholic King James II was deposed. William

joined an alliance of Euro-pean countries aimed at halting

Louis XIV of France’s expansionist policies.

New Englanders still freshly recalled the raid in Dover eight years before Duston was captured. About 20 colonists were killed and nearly 30 were captured and sold in New France.

But by the time the statue was erected, 177 years had passed and western expansion was on the minds of Americans.

“Most of it is 19th-century romanticizing of the event,” Clow said.

The island was believed at the time to be the site of the bloodbath. Duston’s statue depicts her holding the scalps in her left hand and a tomahawk in her right.

“When she holds the scalps, she holds them as though they were a bouquet of flow-ers,” Clow said.

Lately, the site has become overgrown with brush and has been home to illicit behavior during the summer months. Graffiti and trash have built up, and the statue’s nose was broken off. Work is being done to clean up the island, and there have been talks about installing signs with more historical informa-tion. — Ryan Lessard

If you’re taking a walk through the town common in Warren, don’t be alarmed by the towering rocket in the center of town. The Redstone Rocket, a retired missile from the Redstone Arsenal in Huntsville, Alabama, came to the Granite State over 40 years ago thanks to Ted Asselin, a Warren native who was stationed at the Redstone Arsenal in 1970.

“He was born in this town and he was in the service and he worked at Huntsville, Ala-bama, and they were getting rid of the rockets and he said he’d like one,” Janice Sackett, president of the Warren Historical Society, said in a phone interview.

Asselin got permission to have the rock-et converted into a display piece but was told that if he wanted to move it, he had to do it on his own dime.

“I think it cost him a little over a thousand dollars to bring it up and it had to be painted … there was a lot of volunteer help putting it up,” Sackett said.

She recalls contributing some money to the donation buckets he had in town but said it was mostly a one-man endeavor with the goal of giving local children the chance to see a rocket up close.

“He wanted our kids in this area [to have access to it] because [they’d] never get in that area [Alabama] to see one,” she said.

In 1971 the rocket finally made it to War-ren and was set on a piece of property owned by the historical society. It has since become both a symbol of notoriety for the town and a topic of contention for some residents who think it’s an eyesore or don’t think a missile should be placed near a church.

Before it was installed in the town com-mon, Sackett took her children to see the rocket.

“Somewhere I have a picture of my six boys on it before they put it up,” she said. “It was laying down … and I told my mother-in-law they were on their way to the moon if they didn’t behave.”

Nobody knows for sure who built what’s become known as America’s Stonehenge, at 105 Haverhill Road in Salem, but there are many theories. Some think it was con-structed by local farmers in the 18th and 19th centuries. Others say it was built by early American Indians, while some claim it’s the lost monastery wreckage of a migrant group of Irish monks. (Though it’s named after Stonehenge in England, there’s no real cul-tural connection.)

Today, it’s like a maze of man-made cham-bers, walls, odd stone arrangements and supposed ceremonial meeting places that you can access via a collection of trails in its Salem location run by Dennis Stone and his family. The site became a tourist attrac-tion when his father, Robert Stone, began leasing and bought the 100-plus acres in the 1950s and 1960s, and today it’s accessible for kids and adults. You can actually walk inside some of these old chambers.

Stone said in a phone interview he believes the site is a 4,000-year-old megalithic astro-nomical complex, which was also the belief of William Goodwin, who bought the site in

1937 and called it Mystery Hill. Numerous noted archeologists have visited the site, and while some claim it’s all a hoax, radiocarbon analysis points to human occupation of the area from as far back as 2,000 B.C.

The grounds cover about 110 acres, which you can access for $12 ($10 for seniors, $7.50 for kids younger than 12, stonehenge-usa.com). On the grounds are a couple of alpacas, a gift shop and a 9-minute introduc-tory video about the place.

The New Hampshire Telephone Muse-um in Warner was opened in 2005, three years after the local independent telephone company MCT Telecom was sold to TDS Telecom. The museum’s executive direc-tor, Laura French, says the initial collection came from Dick Violette, a man who had risen to the rank of president and CEO of MCT Telecom and later as chairman of the board. Violette had worked in the telephone industry since 1946.

“Throughout the years, Dick and his family had about four generations in the telephone business [and he had] amassed a collection of telephones,” French said.

The shareholders of MCT pooled their resources after the buyout to create an endowment to fund the museum. And the collection has since grown.

“We have over 1,000 artifacts that includes telephones, switching systems, tools…,” French said. “It also includes phone books and publications.”

French said the museum has replicas of Alexander Graham Bell’s invention all the way up to the first smartphone. It has ear-ly crank phones and automatic dial phones as well.

“We have a fun collection of novelty phones too,” French said.

Those include SpongeBob Squarepants phones and Mickey Mouse phones.

Violette’s initial collection was joined by the collection of Gary Mitchell of the Wood-bury Telephone Company of Connecticut.

Violette began his career as a lineman for Merrimack County Telephone Com-pany, which served the Warner, Bradford and Sutton exchanges. In 1959, he went to work for Hopkinton Telephone Company, which served the Contoocook exchange. In the 1970s Violette began working for both companies at the same time; he oversaw their merger in 1977.

Since it opened, the museum has host-ed more than 7,000 guests from all over the country and the world.

In its heyday, Benson’s Wild Animal Farm (27 Kimball Hill Road, facebook.com/bensons.waf) in Hudson was the

longest-running private zoo and amusement park in the United States.

First it was an animal training center, found-ed by John Benson in 1924, and then it opened to the public in 1926 with animal exhibits, a miniature train and games. Then it became a wild animal circus, and in its final life, a zoo, before closing in 1987. The zoo had a wide variety of animals — lions, bears, llamas, birds, elephants — but the most famous was a gorilla named Colossus, a 500-pound dude who would live to age 40. He once ran for president in the New Hampshire primary as a publicity stunt.

The zoo closed in 1987 and was dormant until 2009, when the town of Hudson re-claimed the property. Since then, numerous

volunteers and reps from the town’s highway department have put in many hours cleaning the park and making it relevant again. But there are still relics of its history on site; in addition to half a dozen buildings left over from its animal farm life, there are remnants from the old goril-la cage (kids sometimes like to go inside, said Jim Barnes, chairman of the Benson Park Com-mittee). The old elephant barn is in the process of being turned into a museum, and where there used to be bird cages, there’s a flower garden, Barnes said.

Today people use the park all the time, he said. The property is 165 acres and contains a 9/11 memorial, dog park, Little Free Library, gazebo and more.

“I think [the farm] was pretty unique for the area. It attracted a lot of attention,” Barnes said. — Kelly Sennott

In the early 1930s, the art depart-ment at Dartmouth College was flourishing. Two art history profes-

sors invited Mexican artist José Clemente Orozco to become the second artist-in-res-idence and teach students the art of fresco. When the college commissioned a mural to be painted on campus, they asked Orozco to take on the project, and he agreed.

After two years at work, Orozco finished The Epic of American Civilization in 1934. The 3,200-square-foot mural runs the length of the college library ground-level reserve read-ing room, now known as the Orozco Room.

The mural is composed of 24 individual scenes that represent North America’s indig-enous and European history.

The west wing depicts the origins of the indigenous American civilization, rit-ual human sacrifice by the indigenous Mesoamericans, the coming and depar-ture of the Mesoamericans’ mythological creature Quetzalcoatl, and the early 16th-century European invasion of the American continent.

The east wing tells of the 16th-century Spanish invasion of Mexico led by Hernan Cortez before abruptly jumping to the 20th

century, morbidly illustrating the chaos of industry and corruption of societal institu-tions. The epic concludes in the final two scenes with the apocalypse, where Jesus Christ passes his judgment and destroys modern ideologies, followed by a new, semi-utopian world.

The mural continues to receive notice. In 2012, Dartmouth College launched an annu-al lecture series dedicated to the mural and installed new LED lighting to enhance the mural’s color and graphics. In 2013, it was named a national historic landmark by for-mer Secretary of the Interior Ken Salazar and National Park Service Director Jonathan B. Jarvis. Last year, the college added a feature to its website that allows people to access an interactive panoramic image of the mural.

Caroline Cutter headstone

Tucked away in Mil-ford’s Elm Street Cemetery, adjacent to the Korean War Memorial, is a grave cov-ered with words — about 150 all over the stone, not an inch to spare — that give claim to how Caroline Cut-ter died in 1838: “Murdered by the Baptist Ministry and the Baptist Churches.”

Following this introduc-tion is a detailed rant by her husband, Dr. Calvin Cutter. He names prominent Milford religious leaders who excommunicated the couple before her death. According to Cutter, a deacon and reverend accused her of lying in a church meeting. Another somehow reduced her to poverty in an effort to keep Cutter “down.”

It goes on to say, “The intentional and mali-cious destruction of her life and happiness, as above described, destroyed her life,” and it finishes with a quote by Caroline Cutter her-self, her last words before she died: “Tell the truth and iniquity will come out.”

According to Milford historian David Palance, Dr. Cutter had gotten into a spat with the nearby Baptist churches. Roxie Zwicker in New Hampshire Book of the Dead: Graveyard Legends and Lore and New Hampshire histo-rian Fritz Wetherbee said Dr. Cutter had been bullying Milford church members into funding the construction of another church in down-town Nashua — a church he’d had built but that had so far been funded on his own empty promises. None of the builders had been paid.

Some of the words on the 1838 stone are faded, Palance said; it had been made of mar-ble, beautiful during the period, beaten down now by pollution. Palance often leads tours around the cemetery, particularly during the Milford Pumpkin Festival. Cutter’s is not the only interesting story, but it’s one that gets a lot of attention.

It’s Palance’s opinion Caroline Cutter died of depression.

“You didn’t have a social life unless it had something to do with the church. She got cut off immediately from all her friends,” Palance said.

Caroline Cutter died shortly after giving birth to Carrie Eliza Cutter, who would also die shortly after. According to Zwicker, Dr. Cutter created a big hubbub about this grave-stone commission; he had an announcement in the local paper inviting people to come see the unveiling. Hundreds showed up.

Oddly enough, according to Palance, Dr. Cutter would move to Massachusetts and marry another woman named Carrie. Togeth-er they had a daughter, another Carrie Cutter, who became the first woman to enter the ser-vice in the Civil War as a nurse; there’s a plaque honoring her near the site.

Madison Boulder is the larg-est known glacial erratic in New

England, and according to Parks and Rec-reation New Hampshire, it’s also among the largest in the world.

Madison Boulder is made of granite, measuring 83 feet in length, 37 feet in width and 23 feet high (from the ground). Its estimated weight is 5,963 tons.

It’s presently surrounded by 17 acres of forest acquired by the state in 1946. Twenty-four years later, the boulder was designated a National Natural Landmark by the U.S. Department of Interior.

Glacial erratics are large rocks transport-ed by glaciers from their original location to a place with bedrock of a different type of rock. Geologists have mapped erratics

from places like Mt. Ascutney in Vermont in order to prove this. Until the early 19th century, it was believed the rocks were transported by massive floods.

Most of the erratics in New Hampshire landed in their current locations about 10,000 years ago.

The most recent glacial movements began about 2.6 million years ago dur-ing the Pleistocene Epoch, during which the last ice age occurred. The continental glacier that passed over New Hampshire flowed southward from Labrador. It’s believed Madison Boulder was a chip off Whitten Ledge less than two miles to the northeast.

The park is always open and pets are permitted. It can be accessed at the end of Boulder Road, off Route 113 in Madison.

When Bob Lawton opened Funspot with his brother in 1952, he never guessed that four decades later it would be the largest arcade in the world.

And with over 600 video games — plus a classic arcade museum, a 20-lane tenpin and candlepin bowling center, cash bingo, indoor and outdoor mini-golf, a restaurant and a tavern — Lawton said Funspot won’t be relinquishing that title anytime soon.

“No one has anywhere near that much,” he said. “And I can assure you, we aren’t fin-ished. As long as I hang on here we’ll be expanding and continuing to add to our col-lection of video games.”

Lawton grew up in Weirs and went to college in Vermont. There, he saw an indoor mini-golf park and decided Weirs could also use a place for families to have fun. With the help of his brother and a $750 loan from his grandmother, Lawton’s indoor nine-hole mini-golf course was under way.

After a successful first year, the broth-ers began expanding, adding games. For 25 years, they had pinball, rifle galleries and old mechanical games, until one day that changed everything.

“An operator from Concord came in and started talking about video games he had all over the state,” Lawton said, “so he said, waving his arms, ‘Let me get rid of this junk and put in some good games,’ and it shocked me, but I let him put some in, and they made more money than any other games I had at the time.”

Funspot continued to grow, featuring more and more games each year, and in the mid-1990s Guinness World Records named it the largest arcade in the world. Lawton said it was never his intent to earn Funspot that title and that he had no idea his arcade would become that big.

“It just happened,” he said. “[My broth-er and I] had never been in business before, so we didn’t know where it was going to go, but we both had kids and we would see what kinds of games other families liked to play, so that’s what we worked with, and it just developed from there.”

Lawton said Funspot has a surplus of about 100 games, which are currently in stor-

age because of space limitations, but he swaps them periodically to

“keep things fresh.”Funspot also has the

world’s largest collection of classic video games, with 300 dating back to 1987 and earlier. Two classics are

especially notable: the 1979 Hercules pinball machine,

which is the largest pinball machine ever made, and next to it, the tiny 1938 Genco Stop & Go pinball,

which is Funspot’s oldest game. The arcade received extra attention when

the first person ever to beat a Pac-Man game did it at Funspot in the 1990s.

“With a lot of these families, the parents will go right to the old classic games,” Law-ton said. “They walk into the room and are astounded with the number of games they used to play over 20 years ago, and they are thrilled to play them again.” — Angie Sykeny

Early-1900s dental tools, a stuffed alli-gator and a pair of mummy hands are just a few of the eccentric items to be found at the Libby Museum in Wolfeboro. The museum was designed and built in 1912 by Wolfeboro dentist Dr. Hen-ry Libby after his wife said his artifact collection was becoming too large for their house.

“He was always a curi-ous renaissance man,” Sheryll Ross, co-director of the museum, said. “He would study every min-ute detail of a peanut or shell or butterfly and then progressed to study animals and human skeletons.”

The doctor started collecting artifacts from his travels to different countries. When his patients learned of his hobby, they started to bring him artifacts from their travels as well.

The museum consists of one room divided into sections — natural artifacts, taxidermied animals, Native American artifacts, medical and dental tools, an art exhibit and an area for children with items they can touch, such as rocks, minerals and sand.

The exhibits include not only Libby’s original collection, but also new objects presented by modern-day like-minded

collectors. Recent additions include a taxi-dermied moose and polar bear.

“We still take artifacts,” Ross said. “Peo-ple will often bring things in, and we just make sure they fit with our mission and the

idea of the museum.”Libby Museum hosts var-ious events and programs throughout the year, includ-ing a kids’ scavenger hunt, kids’ summer camps, work-shops, guest speakers, a

poetry trail, a monthly art exhibit and an interactive tour

in which Ross plays the part of Mrs. Libby.

“It’s one of those places you can return to time and time again, because the programs and exhibits are always chang-ing,” Ross said, “and even though it’s just one room, there’s so much here that, if you stay for an hour, you still can’t take it all in.”

Downtown Keene is filled with signs for art centers, museums, the theater and numerous shops and eateries. But the sign for Parrish Shoes, painted on a brick building just around the corner from Main Street, is not like the others. That’s because the New England mill town footwear fac-tory has never really existed.

Scenes from the 1995 movie Jumanji were filmed in Keene. The movie stars Rob-in Williams as the grown-up Alan Parrish, son of Parrish Shoes owner Samuel Parrish, who has been trapped inside a board game for 26 years. The producers of Jumanji got the approval of the city council and proper-ty owner to paint a sign for Parrish Shoes on the wall of the building. When they were finished filming, the producers offered to restore the wall to its original state, but the owner told them to leave it.

Keene Public Works Director Kürt Blomquist remembers when Jumanji was being filmed.

“It was this great excitement that they were doing a movie in downtown Keene,” he said. “I think the entire community was excited about having Jumanji here.”

The sign got more attention follow-ing the death of Robin Williams in August

2014. Just hours after the news was made public, grieving fans flocked to the sign, turning it into a memorial for the late actor.

“The sign represented his time here in Keene,” Blomquist said, “so after he had passed, people who felt a connection with him in the Monadnock region placed flow-ers and candles in front of the sign.”

The filming of Jumanji and the Parrish Shoe sign it left behind has become one of Keene’s trademarks, giving residents something to boast about and drawing non-resident fans to the city.

“People around here have used it as sort of a, ‘Hey, this is where Jumanji was filmed,’ and many people who visit ask about it,” Blomquist said. “It’s cool watch-ing the movie and seeing the sign and recognizing Keene.” — Angie Sykeny

It would be easy to mistake the pastoral stone ruins deep in the woods of Chesterfield as belonging to an ancient, magical kingdom, but the truth is perhaps even more bizarre.

A short hike into the 516-acre Madame Sherri Forest, owned by the Society for the Protection of New Hampshire Forests, you’ll stumble upon a massive stone stairway, some stone chimneys and a foundation that once belonged to the party house of an eccentric woman who styled herself Madame Antoi-nette Sherri.

According to the book Madame Sherri by Eric Stanway, the house was built in the 1920s after the style of French chateaus and Roman palaces. There was even an old tree that grew up through the living room. The castle-like mansion was wired for electricity and water was brought down nearby Mount Wantastiquet through a quarter mile of cop-per piping.

The interior was said to be ornately deco-rated with rugs, celebrity portraits and gold Buddhas. Madame Sherri would reportedly sit in a cobra-backed chair smoking ciga-rettes and hold court during soirees. She was rumored to enjoy being driven around in a Packard luxury car wearing only a fur coat. Her chauffeur was supposedly a woman named Tony who dressed as a man.

Little is known for sure about Madame Sherri, but there are plenty of rumors. Some believe she was an actual “madame” oper-

ating a brothel in the woods; others say she was a regular entertainer of bootleggers and gangsters.

Sherri was a French woman who moved to the U.S. in 1911 after marrying her husband, who died in 1924. She worked in the theater business, designing and making costumes, but it’s unclear where her fortune came from. She soon ran out of money and abandoned the house, and it fell into disrepair. The cas-tle burned down in 1962, and Madame Sherri died three years later at the age of 87.

Madame Sherri Forest can be accessed by a trail starting at Gulf Road in Chesterfield. Visit nhdfl.org for more details.

Before H.H. Holmes, the man now infa-

mously labeled as America’s first serial killer, became the mastermind behind Chi-cago’s Murder Castle in the late 1800s, he was born Herman Webster Mudgett in Gilmanton, N.H.

Pat Clarke, vice president of the Gilmanton Historical Society, decided to research Holmes in order to “cut through what I think is a lot of distortion of his back-ground,” he said in a phone interview.

He read old newspaper arti-cles, checked various accounts and searched for documents of the man who grew up in a house that still stands in Gilmanton Corner and looks mostly as it did many years ago.

Holmes was born into the Mudgett fami-ly in 1861, a family whose roots Clarke said date back to 1761.

“They were well-respected people in town,” Clarke said. “His siblings, [from] what I can see, [were] normal people.”

Holmes went to the Gilmanton Corner School (the building is now a workshop) as well as the Gilmanton Academy, and his

father owned a store and was postmaster from 1861 to 1885.

John Dickey, president of the Gilmanton Historical Society, said in a phone inter-view that the society’s museum has a copy of the program from the Gilmanton Acade-my graduation ceremony in which Holmes

was one of the speakers.“He’s probably our most famous person,” Clarke

said of the town. “He was quite well-known at that time because newspapers in those days just loved murderers.”

Dickey said that although they don’t publicize the plac-

es Holmes occupied in his childhood (the house is a privately owned building), it is a part of the

town’s history.“There have been all kinds of stories writ-

ten … local newspapers have done repeated stories about it because it’s such a sensation-al story,” he said. — Allie Ginwala

ARTSCondensed footprintArtWalk 2015 gets intimate

By Kelly [email protected]

Nashua’s ArtWalk gets a bit of a make-over this year.

First, City Arts Nashua’s self-led art tour, now in its 11th year, will become condensed — less driving, more walking. Nixed were venues like the Persian Rug Gallery and Glorious Possibilities, which were too far from the city center, said Paul Shea, who’s chairing the ArtWalk board this year.

Instead, a few extra artists will deco-rate the 30 Temple St. location, ArtWalk headquarters for the weekend, and line the bright orange balloon trail connecting par-ticipating venues. All the while, outdoor musicians will play. The event spans Fri-day, Sept. 11, through Sunday, Sept. 13, and will showcase fine art, crafts, jewelry, quilts, 3D art, etc., by more than 100 artists.

The goal of these changes, Shea said, was to create a more walkable, intuitive event.

“We’re going to have more than 150 balloons marking the way. We have had

balloons in the past, but we wanted to provide folks with the opportunity to experience the ArtWalk without the need for any explicit directions, to create a more intuitive experience,” Shea said.

The timing is a little better this year, too; instead of last year’s October week-end — which was also the same weekend as Keene’s former Pumpkin Fest, the New Hampshire Film Festival and, if you’re a rowing fan, the Head of the Charles in Boston — board members decided to stra-tegically time this year’s ArtWalk so it also coincides with Positive Street Art’s Down-town Arts Fest (see box for information).

And to create a more family-friend-ly event, City Arts Nashua partnered with the Gate City Charter School for the Arts, the Boys & Girls Club of Greater Nashua and the Nashua Public Library, who will offer expanded children’s activities at the

library, facilitated by the former on Satur-day, the latter Sunday (activities include sidewalk mandala chalk art, papier mache art, performance art, etc.).

The event is something artists and craft-ers look forward to every year. Cindy Goodman, a quilter with a studio in the Picker Building, said via phone that she most enjoys meeting visitors traipsing through the venues and seeing the oth-er artists come out of the woodwork for this event. It’s the biggest event she par-ticipates in all year.

“The Picker Building is a very eclec-tic building. There are so many different types of artists in that building. It has a wonderful old feel to it. … You have paint-ers and photographers and jewelry makers and woodworkers,” said Goodman, who’s been in the studio about four years along with her daughter, Krystal Manning. “It’s

a great opportunity to see all the talent in Nashua, which I think a lot of people don’t realize is there.”

Shea agreed.“Downtown Nashua has been, for a

good number of years now, growing its reputation as a destination for artists and those who enjoy checking out their work,” Shea said. “ArtWalk is another great way for the community, not just in Nashua, but all over the region, to come and see all the great stuff we have going on, and why Nashua is a cultural hub.”

The ArtWalk trail will be blazed with orange this year. Courtesy photo.

Collaborating with theatre KAPOW is local Greek musician Sandy Theodorou, whose voice and musi-cal talents will be on display during choral odes through the script, and actors include Peter Josephson, Carey Cahoon, Deirdre Bridge, Rich Hurley, Rachael Longo, Mark Marshall, Colby Morgan and Mark Mor-rison. Shows are Tuesday, Sept. 8, at 7:30 p.m.; Wednesday, Sept. 9, at 7:30 p.m.; and Thursday, Sept. 10, at 7:30 p.m. Tickets are $20. Visit tkapow.com.

Bringing in BuddyPalace opens season with jukebox Buddy Holly bio

By Kelly [email protected]

For years now, the Palace Theatre has been receiving write-in requests for Buddy: The Buddy Holly Story.

One of the first “jukebox musicals,” Buddy is “ridiculously popular,” said Artis-tic Director Carl Rajotte, but until recently, he’d never even seen it before. Its plot mir-rors Holly’s real-life rocket jet to fame more accurately than the 1978 film The Bud-dy Holly Story, but at its center are Holly’s iconic songs, like “Peggy Sue,” “That’ll Be the Day” and “Not Fade Away.”

Finally, Rajotte and and Palace Presi-dent/CEO Peter Ramsey decided it was time to deliver.

“After two to three years of getting these emails, I was like, OK, I’ve got to check this out. I’ve seen a couple different ver-sions of it now, and Peter and I thought, this is the time to do it,” Rajotte said during an interview in his office, the wall plas-tered with cast member headshots (many of whom have performed in Buddy produc-tions across the country, including national tours) and the floor covered with a minia-ture model set.

The show starts Friday, Sept. 11, and runs four weeks — new for the theater, which in past years has put on three-week productions. It’s a risky move, Rajotte said, but especially in the past couple years, third weekend shows have excelled, and there’s been demand for a fourth; even after the last curtain call, people have been calling for show tickets.

The musical fits the mold of past Palace openers — upbeat with catchy music — except for that fact that, of course, in real life Buddy Holly’s monumental success was short-lived. He died in a plane crash during a February 1959 snowstorm. He was 22. The first time Rajotte saw the play, he got the chills.

“You’re in the middle of a great time, but then it hits you, what happened to this won-derful talent. … He jumped on the scene and went right to the top. He was in the main-stream for only two years. So everything we know about Buddy Holly happened dur-ing a two-year span. Which is ridiculous. That’s nuts,” Rajotte said. “But I think it’s an intriguing story because of that. I think,

when these things happen to people so fast, it’s inter-esting to see how they grew or why they grew that fast. [This show] gives you a lit-tle glimpse of who he was, not just his music.”

Casting was difficult, but Rajotte was able to snag Buddy alums like Jared Mancuso (Buddy Holly) and Mike Brennan (The Big Bop-per), Danny Caraballo (Ritchie Valens) and Chica Loya (Maria Elena).

“The hard thing about this show is it’s not like your typical musical theater piece, where you have the actors onstage and the band in the pit. The actors had to play the instruments,” he said.

Plus, as always, everything needs to be done in two weeks.

“It’s going to be a different rehearsal pro-cess for me as well. We have to jump right in with the instruments, where normally we wait until the next week to add instru-ments,” Rajotte said.

Theater staff is turning the stage into a gigantic teal jukebox. A 16-foot record will cover the floor, and dotted among the sets will be jukebox playlists. Even the show’s “interior” scenes will be getting a little jukebox flavor, from couches covered with records to the modern-but-retro black, white and red costumes designed by Jessi-ca Moryl.

After a very successful 100th-year sea-son, the theater is at the beginning of what members hope will be another. On the menu are four Palace premieres: The Addams Family in October, Rock of Ages (also a New England premire) in March and Billy Elliot: The Musical in June. Oth-er mainstage shows for 2015-2016 include Nunsense A-Men and Singin’ in the Rain in January and April, respectively.

“It’s a big year,” Rajotte said. “We’re always looking for new stuff, but it’s just not always available to us because we’re 52 miles outside of Boston, so we get blacked out a lot. … This year, the stars aligned, and we got we wanted. And to close with some-thing like Billy Elliot — I hope it becomes a big Manchester event. I hope everybody comes out to see it. It’s a beautiful story. I remember seeing it — I was just out of college, seeing the movie, and just crying, because it was me.”

INSIDE/OUTSIDECruisin’ alongHuge car show returns to downtown Manchester

By Angie Sykeny [email protected]

Thousands of car enthusiasts will flock to Elm Street for the 15th annual Cruising Downtown car show on Saturday, Sept. 5, from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., put on by the Man-chester Rotary Club. The event is the third largest classic car show in New England, featuring over 600 cars.

“Car clubs and individuals from all over New England show up with their cars,” Mark Burns, president of Manchester Rotary Club, said. “It will run the gamut of older cars, hot rods, street rods, every car you can imagine that’s considered to be a collectible or antique.”

The show will be held on Elm Street and Chestnut Street, from Bridge Street to Lake Ave-nue. Those areas will be closed to through traffic for the duration of the event. Burns said the police esti-mated 40,000 attendees last year.

This year is expected to be even larger due to special guest Dennis Gage, host of the television show My Classic Car. The show, now in its 20th season, currently airs on Velocity and MAVtv networks and is seen by over 90 million house-holds. Gage will be at Cruising Downtown with a film crew, and he will select five cars to feature on his show.

“We’ve had more pre-registra-tions and more sponsorships than we’ve ever had, and we can only directly relate that to having [Gage] there,” Burns said. “He’s well-known in the classic car business

and many of these people want to come and hopefully get on the show.”

There will be two stages with live music — the main stage at the Brady Sullivan Tower and the sec-ond at Veterans Park. Performers include Speed Trap from 10 a.m. to noon and Permanent Vacation from 1 to 3 p.m. at the main stage, and The Atomic Raygun from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the park. Live radio during band breaks will be provid-ed by Frank FM (99.1 and 106.3) and The Wolf (93.3).

Also at Veterans Park, there will be food vendors and local busi-ness vendors, both car-related and not. An awards ceremony will take

place at 3 p.m., where plaques will be awarded for winning cars in var-ious categories.

Cruising Downtown is Manches-ter Rotary Club’s largest fundraiser of the year. Proceeds from the car registration fees and attendee dona-tions will support various youth services in Manchester, including the Manchester Boys & Girls Club, Child and Family Services of NH, NH Food Bank, Manchester Spe-cial Olympics and many others.

“It’s a great way to end the summer,” Burns said. “The mon-ey raised gets put back into the community, and if you’re into auto-mobiles, it’s fun to get the chance to see some very nice cars.”

Out of this worldUFO fest celebrates “incident at Exeter” anniversary

By Angie [email protected]

Fifty years after the reported New Hamp-shire UFO sighting known as “the incident at Exeter,” UFO researchers are still speculating about what really happened that day.

This year’s Exeter UFO Festival will cel-ebrate the 50th anniversary of the incident with UFO-inspired activities, entertainment and lectures in the downtown area, Thursday, Sept. 3, through Sunday, Sept. 6.

The festival began six years ago, primari-ly as a symposium for UFO theorists to meet in the town where the incident took place and exchange ideas, but it has since grown into a family-friendly event.

“The festival brings [the incident] notori-ety and brings it back to people’s minds,” said Bill Smith, president of Exeter Area Kiwan-is, which is organizing the festival this year.

There will be more than 10 speaker events covering a variety of topics including the incident at Exeter, stories of other UFO sight-ings, alien abduction reportings, crop circles, conspiracy theories about government cov-er-ups and more. The speakers are authors, documentarians, researchers, historians and people with personal stories about UFOs.

People will also have the opportunity to go to the exact location where the incident was reported to have happened and listen to a local UFO researcher recount the story.

Other festival activities include a fami-

ly-friendly science fiction movie showing outside, kids crafts and face painting, live music by the Star Wars-inspired Groove Lounge Cantina Band, the Exeter Arts Com-mittee’s “Other Worldly” art exhibit and hot dogs and hamburgers for lunch.

If you’re looking for a souvenir, local comic book artist Michael Mitchell will be at Kryp-ton Comics, selling and signing the comic he created in the spirit of the festival and the 50th anniversary. UFOs Over Exeter is a narrative of the incident based on the reports of whom Mitchell considered the most credible sourc-es. The comic is designed with retro artwork to resemble an authentic comic from 1965, the year of the reported sighting.

“It’s such an interesting story with twists and turns,” Mitchell said. “We thought it’d be interesting to retell the story in a graphic form and with a retro look to bring it alive and put the audience in the moment of when this event was unfolding.”

Smith said the festival is a fun way to cel-ebrate a famous event and a chance to learn more about UFOs from qualified speakers.

“Whether people don’t know much about [UFOs], they believe, they’re on the fence, or they’re doubters, they should go and lis-ten and get more information that maybe they didn’t even know existed,” he said. “It’s open to everyone; just bring an open mind.”

IN/OUT TREASURE HUNT

Dear Donna,

I have this table my uncle gave me when he moved to the Dominican Republic. It looks old and has some numbers inscribed on the back (2675 425 LE 30). I’m hoping you can give me info on what the numbers mean and if the table has any value.

Diana

Dear Diana,Nice little table you have there. By look-

ing at it I can tell that this style is from the 1920s to 1940s. It’s tough to know the manufacturer from the numbers. They were used for the run numbers on each piece, so that they could match different pieces together from the same run numbers. This was for style, colors and designs.

This probably was part of a bedroom set or possibly even a smoking humidor stand. But you would be able to tell that by open-ing it, and if the inside is copper-lined, then a smoking stand it is. Sometimes the tops held pipes and others held them inside the doors. I have even seen stands similar to this that were actually the sides of vanities converted later into tables. There would be a side that shows attachment to another piece, so again you would be the one to say that. Typical wood for this era was a wal-nut with several different stain blends and veneered woods to create accents such as those you might see on a door.

No matter what your little stand was, it’s now yours and easily could be made to

serve a new purpose today. The value of it would be in the $40 range

in today’s market. Remember, this age isn’t considered an antique yet. (An antique has to be over 100 years old, but that doesn’t mean it can’t be collectible.) So it’s just considered used furniture that is made to last.

Donna Welch has spent more than 20 years in the antiques and collectibles field and owns From Out Of The Woods Antique Center in Goffstown (fromoutofthewoodsantiques.com). She is an antiques appraiser and instructor. To find out about your antique or collectible, send a clear photo of the object and informa-tion about it to Donna Welch, From Out Of The Woods Antique Center, 465 Mast Road, Goffs-town, N.H., 03045. Or email her at [email protected]. Or drop by the shop (call first, 624-8668).

IN/OUT THE GARDENING GUY

Tomato timeEat some now, save some for later

By Henry [email protected]

It’s a rare gardener who doesn’t grow at least a few tomatoes. We all love them. I eat them at least twice a day in season, and sometimes I even have one with breakfast. But the season is short, so many of us try to put up tomatoes to have their flavor in winter soups and stews. Our grannies slaved over a hot stove in August and September, canning tomatoes. But I have found freezing them is much easier.

Here’s what I do: I freeze whole tomatoes in zipper bags. I don’t blanch them or remove the skins. All I do is place clean fresh toma-toes in a gallon freezer bag and suck out the air with a straw, sliding out the straw and pinching the bag shut as I do so.

When I want to cook with a tomato, I hold a frozen one under the tap, run hot water over it while rubbing it, and the skin comes right off. I set it aside for a few minutes, then chop it and put in the stew pot. I know it is chem-ical-free and harvested at peak ripeness. I sometimes freeze cherry tomatoes, and those I toss into the pan with skins on.

In winter I long for tomatoes for my noon sandwich. I’ve found that roasting tomatoes first, then freezing, is a good way to have a sub-stitute for fresh tomato in a sandwich. I thickly slice tomatoes and roast them at 350 degrees until they have given off most of their mois-ture and caramelized nicely. Then I carefully place them in gallon freezer bags in a single layer. When I need a few slices, I break off the frozen slices and put them in my toaster oven on aluminum foil. I heat them at 350 degrees until thawed. They are not the same as fresh, but they’re the best substitute I’ve found.

Cherry tomatoes are highly prolific, and I generally have 10 plants or more. Although I eat plenty like candy, right in the garden, I obviously have more than I can eat in August and September. So I cut each in half and put them in my food dehydrator. I set the thermo-stat at 125 or 130 degrees and dry them for 18 to 24 hours, depending on water content and the ambient air’s humidity.

Food dehydrators are great for drying toma-toes, apples, pears, hot peppers and more. My favorite is the Excalibur. It has nine trays, each 15 inches square, and a fan and heater. It uses 660 watts of electricity per hour, which is less than the 1000 watts used by my previous favorite, the NESCO American Harvest-er. The Excalibur blows sideways across the trays so everything gets dry at the same rate; the NESCO dehydrator blows from the top or the bottom, and one must rotate the trays to get even drying. The trays near the heater dry quickly, those farther away more slowly.

I also make a lot of tomato paste. To do

this I core full-sized tomatoes over the sink and squeeze out seeds and excess juice. Then I cut them in half and toss them in the food processor, which I use to puree them into a thin gruel. I cook the pureed tomatoes in a big enameled cast iron pot at low heat until the contents are thick enough so that I can stand up a spoon in the pot. It takes 2 to 3 hours of cooking to make paste.

I let the paste cool all night with the pot lid off, so more moisture evaporates by morn-ing. Then I spoon the paste into ice cube trays and freeze them. When hard, I take the cubes out and put in freezer bags. One cube is a very nice quantity to add to a soup or stew. By freezing the paste in small units, there is no can of tomato paste left in the fridge to go moldy and blue. No odd flavors picked up in the fridge, either.

I also make spaghetti sauce. Not much, but I like to have some ready for a quick meal in March. I sauté onions, garlic and fresh green peppers to start with. I add fresh basil, mar-joram and parsley from the garden. And of course tomatoes, black pepper and a touch of salt. I can one batch in quart jars each sum-mer — seven jars — and freeze more in quart yogurt containers. Canning must be done prop-erly, cooking the sealed jars for a long time.

But if you don’t grow enough tomatoes to put up all of them you want for winter, don’t despair. Most farm stands take orders for tomatoes by the bushel at a very reasonable rate, much less than the per pound rate. So when the late blight nailed my tomatoes some years ago, I bought a bushel from a farmer and put them up.

I don’t generally grow a lot of peppers, so I often buy a half bushel of green, yellow and red peppers. I clean and slice them, and freeze in zipper bags. I find they freeze so well that I can even add them to a salad, and having three colors of peppers makes a very attrac-tive winter salad. Put them in the salad right out of the freezer and eat soon after.

Gardening is fun, even the weeding. But eating the garden produce is even better. Fresh is best, but come winter, anything is good!

Dear Car Talk:I have a 1990 Ford

Ranger with 110,000 miles on it. The chas-sis is thoroughly rusted — in fact, the charcoal canister tube rusted through and fell off. It leaks oil, burns oil

and smells like coolant, which probably means it has a cracked head. The shocks are almost rusted through, and it makes noises when going over bumps (maybe the suspension is rusted through?).

I do change the oil every 5,000 miles, but I add oil more often than that. I use it only to haul mulch, coal and wood, but it is my second vehicle, so it is important. It costs only $300 a year to insure, and I drive it fewer than 5,000 miles a year, so I do not need to have it emissions tested (thank goodness, because it stinks). I also do not drive any farther from my home than my insurance’s towing package cov-ers. I plan to drive it until it just gives up the ghost.

What should I do to increase the life of it? Are there any recommended things I should be doing besides praying? Should I be concerned about it catching on fire,

since it leaks oil and really stinks? What about the gas lines, since they are rusted, too? Thanks. — Phil

You should pray that this thing catch-es fire, Phil.

I know you’re afraid to take it to a bona fide mechanic, because you know the news is going to be awful. But if you want to keep this truck, that’s what you real-ly need to do. You have to find out if this is still a viable, roadworthy vehicle. And I think we both know what the answer’s going to be.

At the very least, you need to make sure the brakes are not about to fail, the wheels aren’t about to fall off, the frame isn’t held together by dust and the engine isn’t about to do its impersonation of the Burning Man finale.

Seriously, it’s not just that the truck could disintegrate around you if you hit something, leaving your face as the bum-per. You also could be — and probably are — a danger to all the other drivers on the road, because if your brakes fail or a wheel falls off, you could take other peo-ple with you.

So my suggestion is that you thank this truck for its many years of service, say a Hail Mary over it, and drop it off at the

junkyard. And instead, buy a used trail-er. You say you have another vehicle; if it’s got any kind of decent towing capac-ity at all, you can put a trailer hitch on it, buy an old trailer and use it to haul your wood, coal and mulch. Or rent or borrow a truck for the times you actually need to haul stuff.

But this truck sounds like a danger to you and others. Rather than haul mulch, I think it’s ready to become mulch.

Of course, I know you’re going to ignore my advice, Phil. I’ve known deter-mined cheapskates like you -- Exhibit A was my late brother. So when you do ignore my advice, at least wear sneakers when you drive so that when it catches fire, you can run.

Dear Car Talk:I park in a parking garage for work,

and I have a question about tire wear. I usually park on level 4 or 5, and the only turns that are made are right-handed (clockwise), for both entering and exit-ing. My question is: Will one side of my tires wear more quickly than the other? Thanks! — Rodney

Rodney, it’s really tempting to tell you that every other day you have to drive

backward up and down the ramps just to keep your tire wear even. But the truth is, you don’t have to worry about it.

If you were spending all day driving up and down those ramps, then yes, you might wear out the tires on the left side of your car faster than the tires on the right.

But the amount of wear your tires get from going up and down those ramps once a day is tiny compared to the wear they get driving around the rest of the time. So you don’t need to do anything.

If it’ll make you sleep better at night, one thing you can do is simply rotate your tires on a regular basis to even out the wear.

For instance, when you get your oil changed every 7,500 miles or so, you can have your mechanic swap the tires around.

I think you’ll find that a lot easier than backing up four or five stories of ramps on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays.

Just don’t ask your mechanic if making all those right turns on ramps is wearing out your left springs faster than your right springs. They’re a lot more expensive to rotate than tires.

IN/OUT CAREERS

Andy Wegman opened Manchester Acupuncture Studio in 2007 with a mission to provide people with affordable acupuncture treatment. He is now one of six acupuncturists serving the studio’s Manchester and Nashua locations. Weg-man said most people seek acupuncture therapy to help with anxiety, insomnia and chronic pain.

Explain in one sentence what your cur-rent job is.I stick small needles in people to encourage their bodies to relax as much as possible and help them feel better.

How long have you worked there?15 years.

How did you get interest-ed in this field?I had an interest in being of use to people and an inter-est in looking at how the body works.

What kind of education or training did you need for this job?A master’s degree in acupuncture and chinese medicine along with a state license.

How did you find your current job?I created it. I started the studio. … I met a lot of folks who couldn’t afford the market rates [for acupuncture], so with the coop-eration of a few other acupuncturists we created a business model where we could make a living offering acupuncture at an affordable rate, and lo and behold, that’s taken off here in Manchester. What’s the best piece of work-related advice anyone’s ever given you?Be yourself, work hard and be honest.

What do you wish you’d known at the beginning of your career?That the value of acupuncture isn’t tied to how much money you can get for

providing it. Its value is its utility and efficiency and simplicity. It’s simple, but very useful for a lot of different folks in different situations.

What is your typical at-work uniform?Jeans and a T-shirt.

CAREERS

As a kid, Jon Pace loved to assemble and disassemble BB guns and pellet guns. Now, he works as a gunsmith and sales associate at Granite State Indoor Range and Gunshop in Hudson, specializing in gun repair. Granite State offers new and pre-owned firearms for sale, gun repair and cleaning, training courses and an indoor range with firearm rentals.

Explain in one sentence what your current job is.

To ensure that customers who come in have a safe experience

and receive the correct information in regards to firearms usage, storage and operation.

How long have you worked there?Since we opened on Oct. 22, 2014.

How did you get interested in this field?

Ever since I was a little kid I had BB guns and pellet guns and always tinkered around with them, taking them apart and putting them back together, so I thought if I could make a career out of that one day, that’s where I’d be best-suited.

What kind of education or training did you need for this job?

I studied at a trade school and obtained

an associate degree in gunsmithing. Then there are cer-tifications I’ve received from some [firearm] manufac-turers that certify me as competent to work with that spe-cific firearm.

How did you find your current job?

Through a friend who recommended me for the position.

What’s the best piece of work-related advice anyone’s ever given you?

You should not get in a hurry. The motto [in working with guns] is “slow is smooth, and smooth is fast.” Doing it right may be a little more time-consum-ing, but the more patience you exercise in working with firearms, the better your outcome will be.

What do you wish you’d known at the beginning of your career?

How many different paths in gunsmith-ing there are. A person can specialize in metal engraving, stock work, general repair — there are so many fields. I got

into general repair, and I’m glad I did because it’s some-thing I’m good at, but down the road I may get into another specialty.

What is your typical at-work uniform?

It consists of a polo shirt, cargo pants, a good sturdy pair of boots and a sturdy belt.

What was the first job you ever had?I was a sales associate at Best Buy. — Angie Sykeny

News from the local food scene

By Allie [email protected]

• What’s brewing in Manchester: Great North Aleworks (1050 Holt Ave., Man-chester), the Queen City’s newest brewery, officially began distributing its 12-ounce cans on Monday, Aug. 31. The 20-bar-rel production brewery features Smokin’ Rauchbier, IPA and Robust Vanilla Porter, which will be available year-round, along with a fourth seasonal beer (currently Thai Dyed, the summer brew) only offered on draft. Owners and Manchester residents Rob and Lisa North began experimenting with home brewing a number of years ago, became involved with the state’s Brew Free or Die homebrew club and realized that their talent had the potential to be much more than a hobby, according to an arti-cle in Heady Times, a quarterly publication of Amoskeag Beverages. The new tasting room will be open for samples along with tours of the production area. Visit face-book.com/greatnorthaleworks for updates.

• New home for science series: Science on Tap, a discussion series presented by the SEE Science Center, is moving to The Foundry (50 Commercial St., Manches-ter) for the 2015-2016 season. The series will kick off on Tuesday, Sept. 8, at 5 :30 p.m. with a discussion called “Humans and Space: Is Mars in the Future?” Hear from a panel featuring Chris Carberry, executive director and co-founder of Explore Mars; Joe Cassady, Aerojet Rocketdyne execu-tive director; and David McDonald, STEM educator and former education director at the McAuliffe-Shepard Discovery Center. The series continues every second Tuesday through June. See see-sciencecenter.org/visitors/Science-on-Tap.

• Update at The Grind: The Grind Rail Trail Cafe will be moving from its loca-tion on Manning Street to West Broadway in Derry, once renovations at the new loca-tion are complete. The new cafe space is larger, with an outdoor area and walk-up window (just like a drive-through, except it’s for feet and not cars) as well as conve-nient parking and easy access to Interstate 93. Situated right on the rail trail, the cafe is a popular spot for runners, bikers and parents with strollers. Hoping to open in mid-September, The Grind will expand its menu with more lunch items and grab-and-go foods at the new location. Hours remain the same, 6:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. on weekdays

FOODBeneficial bacteriaBeaver Brook hosts probiotic food series

By Allie [email protected]

Last month, Beaver Brook Nature Center hosted a class on homemade soda, the first in its new series about fermentation and probiotic foods. Noticing the recent trend of learning more about the benefits of bac-teria, the center will host classes throughout the fall about making probiotic foods at home, with the next installment all about pickling on Sunday, Sept. 6.

“If there are some people really wanting to work on their gut and health this would give them a number of different skills and recipes and food groups they could work on themselves,” Celeste Philbrick Barr, educa-tion and community affairs director, said in a phone interview.

While Beaver Brook has offered fermen-tation-based classes before, this fall will be the first time they’re offered as a series.

“Some of these things seemed like old-fashioned, and now it’s cool again,” she said. “It’s kind of bringing it back onto the table so younger people can learn it.”

Rivka Schwartz, herbalist and Beaver Brook instructor, will lead the monthly classes, each of which will be a hands-on style, allowing guests to sample and also take home recipes to try on their own.

Philbrick Barr and Schwartz worked

together to come up with the class topics, chosen based on what foods would be best for the time of year and also what products will be available to use. Since the next class takes place in the height of the harvest sea-son, Schwartz will incorporate a lot of local produce.

“You can ferment just about any vege-table,” she said in a phone interview. “It’s [the class] an overview of different things you can ferment and also just season-al because we’re using seasonal products from this area.”

The pickling portion of the class all depends on what she sees fresh at the market that morning, but will most likely include zucchini, turnips or radishes. She’ll also show the class how to make corn rel-ish, mustard and salsa.

Apart from introducing people to tasty and healthy recipes to try at home, Schwartz hopes to dispel thoughts that pickling is a tricky process.

“A lot of people have in their minds that it must be something difficult to do

[because] you look at pickles at the store and they’re very expensive and you imag-ine this must be a whole process, but really there’s nothing easier then fermenting,” she said. “A quart of pickles only takes 10 min-utes … for someone who wants to do it at home, and it’s very simple.”

Following the shift in the seasons, the October class will cover sauerkraut and kimchi with a final class in November about fire cider.

“That is an amazing remedy that is great to do in November,” Philbrick Barr said.

Made up of horseradish roots, garlic, onion, ginger, chili pepper, cider vinegar and more, fire cider is a tonic used to combat head congestion, a cough, sore throat and other ail-ments that winter weather brings about.

After making it last year, Philbrick Barr is excited to make her own tonic again, which will be ready to use once it steeps for six weeks. During the class, Schwartz will talk about the medicinal benefits of the roots in the fire cider, which can be taken on its own or as a salad dressing.

Concepts combineUnWine’d and Key West Cafe merge

By Allie [email protected]

On a recent Thursday afternoon, UnWine’d owner Scot Kinney was writing with bright-ly colored chalk on a large blackboard

behind the restaurant’s newly installed bar. The words “UnWine’d at Key West Cafe & Grill” and the sketch of a palm tree stood as the backdrop for the cork bar with a pinstripe of beach sand laid into the middle, a physi-cal expression of the Manchester restaurant’s

new concept.After running two restaurants for the past

year — UnWine’d in Manchester and Key West Cafe in Goffstown — Kinney and his wife Rania are fusing the two concepts together in the Manchester location with

39

HIPPO | SEPTEMBER 3 - 9, 2015 | PAGE 39

breakfast, lunch and dinner that will feature UnWine’d favorite dishes and Caribbean-inspired cuisine.

Rejuvenate and refresh Kinney never saw himself owning two res-

taurants. In fact, since UnWine’d opened in 2001, patrons have suggested he open anoth-er location, but his answer was always no. It wasn’t until he was approached about an opportunity in Goffstown that he considered the possibility.

“This did just kind of fall into place with a good opportunity somebody approached us with, and we decided, hey, let’s give it a shot,” Kinney said.

Key West Cafe, a breakfast and lunch spot with a Caribbean flair, opened in July 2014. The idea was to make it completely different than UnWine’d in order to keep things inter-esting and manageable.

“I didn’t want to do a dinner place and have two running at the same time,” he said. “I’m very hands-on, I try to be at my busi-nesses all the time, so it made sense to do something breakfast [and] lunch.”

After a year in, however, the ebb and flow of the Goffstown business was not where he wanted it to be, so he decided to close and reevaluate. Since UnWine’d is the main business, Kinney thought that instead of just closing in Goffstown, he could merge the two concepts to bring new life to the restaurant in Manchester.

He wants to stick with the Key West con-cept because he’s “always had a little part of Florida in my heart.”

“I used to live there. I have a business down there,” he said. “I’m just a very laid-back, tropical, Floridian type guy by nature.”

What’s on the menu? The dinner menu at UnWine’d at Key

West: Cafe and Grill will feature one side of Caribbean dishes like fried plantains, Jamai-can meat pies and macadamia crusted fish, and one side of UnWine’d menu favorites.

New to UnWine’d are breakfast and lunch options, which are an expanded version of the Goffstown menu. They’ll go from one breakfast burrito to three and also add a third omelet. Sweet and savory crepes and fruit smoothies will also be on the menu. Kin-ney said there will be a “grab and go” feel for those heading to work in the morning in addi-tion to the sit-down crowd looking for a nice meal and a mimosa. Conch chowder, Cubans and Reubens will be on the lunch menu.

“We want people to feel like they’re get-ting away from the normalcy,” Kinney said.

He hopes to conjure a vacation-like atmo-sphere with tropical drinks, calypso music and little umbrellas.

Turning two into one UnWine’d will be closed for the beginning

of September for renovations. The goal is to reopen in mid-September for breakfast, lunch and dinner six days a week (it’ll be closed on Tuesdays).

With the new concept comes a new atmo-sphere in the restaurant — the space will have two vibes just like the menu. They’re going to open up the area that divides the two sections of the dining room and make it all one level.

Guests will have two atmospheres with different decor to choose from while din-ing — the intimate atmosphere currently associated with UnWine’d and the vibrant playfulness of Key West Cafe. Even with the stark difference in setting, the two spaces will flow. And regardless of which side you sit on, you’ll be able to order from both menus.

“The coziness, the quietness … [that atmo-sphere] is slowly a dying breed but we’re trying to rejuvenate it,” he said. “We’re hop-ing this is something that’s going to re-spark people’s interest, give them another reason to come in.”

New to brew?Learn the basics of homebrewing

By Allie [email protected]

Whether your dream is to open a brewery someday or you just want an IPA made to your exact specifications, you can learn the ins and outs of home brewing beer at Oscar Foss Memorial Library on Thursday, Sept. 3, during a class led by veteran home brew-er Justin Umlah.

Umlah began brewing almost a decade ago because he wasn’t happy with the beer selection on the shelves.

“Ten years ago, good beer was not everywhere, and it was definitely not eco-nomically priced, and I thought it would be a clever idea to start making my own,” he said in a phone interview.

His current home brew setup is a half barrel (15 gallons), and lately he’s been brewing IPAs and Belgian-style beers — he prefers IPAs while his wife enjoys the Belgians. He’ll make anywhere from 10 gallons to 15 gallons a batch, depending on the type of beer.

With no classes available at the time, he learned how to home brew by reading books and doing lots of hands-on, trial-and-error learning.

“It was all books written by crazy peo-ple that just took a hobby way too far,” he said. “[A] big reason I’m doing the class is [to tell] anybody getting into brewing [that they] should not take the path I took.”

During the class, Umlah will focus on the

theme of “keep it simple.”“We’ve got four basic ingredients,” he

said. “Stick to those and learn how to use them, then go off.”

Umlah has showed people how to brew in an individual setting, but never as a formal class before. He’s working on developing his own course with beginner, chemistry and advanced class options to cover all aspects of the process and equipment involved. He hopes to turn the inaugural standalone class at Oscar Foss Memorial Library into a series.

Umlah said he designed this Home Brew-ing Basics class so that “if somebody walked in and said, ‘I don’t know what the differ-ences in beer are,’ I can take it from there.”

He’ll talk about the simple ingredients involved and show the class malt and hops (including some fresh hops from his gar-den). He’ll go over the cleaning process, which is “ultimately 90 percent of the job,” he said, how to start with equipment most people already have in their kitchens, and of course the brewing process. He’ll wrap up the class with time for questions and book recommendations to help get started.

“Hopefully by the end of this one-hour class they can say OK, this is how you have to do it,” he said.

HE

Kitchen WITH BRAD ROBERTSBrad Roberts started working at Fremont Pizzeria Restau-rant (431 Main St., Fremont, 895-6313, fremontpizzeria.com) five years ago when his brother and cousin, who both worked at the pizzeria, suggested he join the team. He began as a dish boy and worked his way up, going from cooking on the line to making pizzas to his current position as head cook. Of all the dishes he makes on the menu of gourmet sandwiches, pastas, subs and seafood, he really enjoys the pizza-making process, from opening the dough to adding the toppings.

What is your must-have kitchen item?A dough mixer.

What is the most unique pizza you’ve ever eaten?

I think actually one of our best pizzas here is the homestyle pizza. ... Instead of a pizza sauce it’s a Bolognese sauce as the base, and then there’s shredded cheese on top and then there’s some Romano sprin-kled on.

What is your favorite pizza topping or topping combination?

Back in the day when I was a dish boy … a manager that worked here … came up with this great idea of a Big Mac piz-za. It has all the ingredients as a Big Mac, the Thousand Island as a base and then … hamburger and cheese. It comes out of the oven [and] you put lettuce and tomato

on top of it as well, and pickles.

Favorite restaurant besides your own?I’d say the Tuckaway Tavern in Ray-

mond is definitely my second favorite.

What celebrity would you like to share a pizza with?

Probably Bradley Cooper.

What is your favorite meal to cook at home?

Chicken broccoli alfredo. I think that’s just a unique dish.

What would you choose for your last meal?

Big Mac pizza from Fremont Pizzeria. It is not on our menu, but you could ask for it and we’d make it.

FOOD

Ricotta cheese

Over the weekend I made lasagna. Every time I make the dish, I end up with more cheese filling than I know what to do with but always feel guilty about just throwing it in the trash. This time, I got smart. I saved the excess ricotta-heavy mixture and went searching for fun recipes that utilized the cheese. I mostly found other pastas and piz-zas, but I didn’t want anything too heavy or sauce-based. And then I found this amaz-ing recipe for chorizo, ricotta and greens in French dough.

I found the recipe on the “What Should I Eat for Breakfast Today” blog by Marta Greber. The photos looked good enough to eat, and the recipe seemed simple enough to recreate. Plus, I had almost all of the ingre-dients on hand and would be able to use up the remainder of my ricotta cheese mixture.

I was happy to find a recipe that I could make for something other than dinner as well. This savory breakfast option will quickly be rotating into my weekly menu, as it only took a few minutes to throw together and about 20 to bake. This recipe would be ideal for houseguests, especial-ly if you have a full day planned. It’s not heavy, and the pieces are practically bite

size, so you could grab one and go on your way out the door.

I opted to use salami instead of cho-rizo, primarily because I found it first in the grocery store. Also, because I was using left-over lasagna cheese filling, which already had three cheeses in it, I chose not to add the grated yellow cheese. Similarly, I went light on the herbs, salt and pepper, as the cheese mixture already contained plenty.

The finished product was as good to eat as the pictures on the blog looked. The light airiness of the puff pastry prevented the dish from being too heavy. The salami and cheese combo provided a mixture of salty and savory that was utterly delicious.

I was happy I had the leftover ricotta mix-ture, as I do think it added an extra layer of flavor with the multiple cheeses. Howev-er, I’ll be making this again with just ricotta and shredded cheese and am curious to see whether the results are equally delicious. Either way, I’m thrilled I now have a recipe to use for my leftover lasagna cheese filling, especially one that’s perfect for breakfast the next morning. — Lauren Mifsud

Chorizo, ricotta and greens in French doughRecipe adapted from “What Should I Eat for Breakfast Today”

1 puffed pastry1 small container ricotta cheeseChorizo or salami, few thin slices1 handful yellow cheese, grated1 handful rucola or other greens (I chose spinach)1 teaspoon herbs Salt and pepper for taste

1 egg

Thaw the puff pastry according to package directions. Once thawed, spread a layer of ricotta cheese over the pastry, followed by the slices of salami and greens. Top all with the grated cheese, herbs and salt and pep-per to taste. Roll length-wise, keeping the wrap tight. Cut into approximately 1-inch slices, and coat with a light egg wash. Bake at 330 degrees for 20 to 25 minutes or until puff pastry is golden brown and flaky.

Wine happeningsNH wine events and releases

By Stefanie [email protected]

Live Free & Wine a successJoined by two friends, I enjoyed the

recent Live Free & Wine Festival put on by the New Hampshire Winery Association. Fifteen state wineries were joined by sev-eral other vendors at the event held at Flag Hill Winery in Lee.

The association hadn’t held this event for a few years, but it is clear it made some significant improvements after its first try. By changing locations and breaking up the tasting times into two sessions, this event was very successful from my perspective. We attended the noon session, and every-one appeared to be having a great time. It was busy but not overly crowded. We only waited a few minutes at each table and were able to interact with the winemakers and staff. The day was very warm, but there was a nice breeze flowing through the tents, which blocked out the hot sun. The Flag Hill vineyards provided a beautiful back-drop for the event. Clearly, a vineyard is a natural location when you are sipping wine, and this location is very picturesque.

I finally had the chance to try Sweet Baby Vineyard’s Farm Stand White before it is gone again. This wine is a blend of five New Hampshire-grown grapes and is quite refreshing. I have not had a chance to try their Barn Door Red yet, but I am hoping I can catch some from the next batch, to be released this fall.

Moonlight Meadery has a new Summer Love mead that has flavors of orange and honey. Anyone who likes creamsicles will enjoy this, and I could imagine it being very tasty poured over vanilla ice cream. Each one of us tried a different mead and we were all equally happy with our selections.

It was very nice to meet the crews from The Vineyard at Seven Birches from North Haverhill and Appolo Vineyards in Derry, as I have not made it to their wineries yet. I enjoyed Seven Birches’ riesling and apple wines and hope to make the trek north to visit them — I hear they also have cider donuts! At the Appolo table, I tried their Brianna wine, which is the name as well as the grape. I learned something new, as I had never heard of this before. After some research, I learned that this grape is fairly new, having been bred in 1983 in Wiscon-sin as a hybrid grape. I’d like to try this wine again when my palate hasn’t been hit by several other wines, as I think it skewed my experience.

If you missed this event, plan to attend the next one as it was a very enjoyable experience.

Sparkling wine partyStart your Labor Day weekend off right

and head to Hermit Woods Winery in Mer-edith this Friday night for their Sparkling Wine Release Party. They will be pouring their new releases from 7 to 9 p.m. For $10, you can taste some of their still and spar-kling wines, and enjoy live music and hors d’oeuvres.

When I spoke with Ken Hardcastle, co-owner and winemaker, earlier this summer, he said he was working on several spar-kling versions made from some of their favorites, including cider, crabapple, apple, kiwi and three honey wines. The still ver-sions of these are impressive, so I am really looking forward to trying the sparkling ver-sions. There is just something so refreshing and pleasant about a glass of bubbly. Vis-it hermitwoods.com for more information.

New release at Copper Beech

Anyone in the Manchester area will be happy to know there is a nice little win-ery in close proximity. Lin, the owner and winemaker at Copper Beech, makes a nice selection of fruit wines out of her winery in Hooksett. I recently received an email noting that her Country Crabapple wine is now back in stock. This is a great wine for fall, as it is “bold, crisp and tart, off-dry and a little bit puckery” according to the description. Made from 100 percent New Hampshire crab apples, it is in limit-ed supply, so head over to the winery and get some before it is gone. Copper Beech is open the first and last weekend of every month from noon until 5 p.m. Visit copper-beechwinery.com.

AC Slater, Take the Night (Owsla Records)

In a display of the same level of com-petitive workaholism endemic to house producers, Los Angeles tech producer Slater has been dropping tons of mix-es and singles over the last few years, most notably in the company of Far East Movement, Big Sean and Moby. But his bum-rushing of the L.A. under-ground scene doesn’t stop there, as he’s actually had the self-assurance to allow one gasping reviewer to anoint him “The King of Heavy Bass House in

America,” a signature hip-hop move that fits well with this honky’s rap under-tow — this ain’t no euro-disco, that’s for sure, especially with sentiments like “let that booty free” getting (politely) pounded into your head. The feel is half runway-model-house and half garage, his go-to block-rockin’ weapon a steel-drum sample that salutes the UK underground. The cool thing about all this is that people who hate either techno or rap (if not both) could dig it. A — Eric W. Saeger

Painted Palms, Horizons (Polyvinyl Records)

We discussed this band’s debut album, Forever, in these pages two years ago. Like that one, this album wants to be hooky and bright, but their Shins fetish sort of precludes that pos-sibility, and with all the cheeseball Breakfast-Clubbing synths and what-me-worry anti-tude, it reads like She Wants Revenge doing Simple Minds karaoke, or vice versa. They’re based in San Francisco nowadays, not that that’s really supposed to change something;

there’s really very little going on here, an aural snapshot of a couple of guys who really dig how the hipster patrol discovered the Beach Boys. Horizons is sincere enough, I’ll give it that, and it’s cleaner than Forever, but in the area of vocal-line strategy, singer Christopher Prudhomme isn’t any better than any oth-er electro or goth kid blessed with a voice that doesn’t suck, taking wild stabs at notes in the hope of nailing down something. These guys are out of strikes. C — Eric W. Saeger

PLAYLISTA seriously abridged compendium of recent and future CD releases

• Jeez, where the heck has Ben Folds been, or does his publicist not tell me about his new stuff because [s]he hates my guts? What did I ever do, but who cares, I am a forgiving person who loves all people and things, and so I will go to the Internet machine and listen, so that I can tell my fans what I think about his upcoming new album, So There. As you know, Folds is the Van Cliburn of this generation, a piano sub-genius who makes wonderful records that are… wait, the video for the single has been up for over a month, and no one has commented about it? Maybe Ben Folds is actually the Van Cliburn of the generation before you guys, and not you. If that’s the case, I don’t quite have to love this thing the way I usually love all people and things, so let’s listen to this idi-otic lump of quirk-pop. Oh, by the way, there is a piano concerto in three movements on this album, performed with the Nashville Symphony. No, I don’t know why. OK, the song I found, “Capa-ble of Anything,” is very quirky, with fluttering flutes and a Billy Joel-gone-twee feel. Do I detest it? No, not really.

• Whoa, here’s something for fans of basically every band that’s ever made records — it’s the new self-titled Hollywood Vam-pires album! Look, it’s Johnny Depp, playing guitar and looking all hemped out, in this teaser video! Alice Cooper is singing! Holy cats, it’s Joe Perry, the fake Native American from Aeros-mith! Even the famous fake knight, Sir Paul McCartney, is in on this — look, there he is, laughing about losing a million dollars in a beer-pong game or whatever cracks up these rich people! Wow, this song totally kicks butt, at least when Alice is singing and Joe Perry isn’t pinching high notes. Maybe it’ll be a real band with lots of albums, maybe? Naw, this won’t last long, someone will eat all the caviar-flavored Doritos and there’ll be a sad breakup, you just know it.

• Any of you old people out there remember when Jewel was a big deal, in the ’90s? I think she’s from Alaska, which, along with the fact that she never got braces for her teeth, somehow gave her this weird street cred among suburban 20something girls. Wait a second … yup, Wiki says she was raised in Alaska. Her and that whiny waifish voice, man, I just couldn’t fricking … you know, love her the way I love all people and things. So, away to torture my ears with the title track from her new LP, Picking up the Piec-es. Jeez, sounds like early Kellie Pickler, really country-ish, but no, now she’s doing that annoying thing where she sings really loudly and really well. Don’t you hate that?

• Thought I forgot you, my metal friends? Heck no! Three words: New Slayer album! Titled Repentless, it will take the edge off all your anger, about … well, you know, all your anger and metal angst! Don’t you hate the greedy Powers That Be, who use big stupid words like “unrepentant”? I sure do! Let’s sing togeth-er, my black-leather Animaniacs. Ready? “Graaaahhh!”

Letting them failNH author talks about new overparenting book

By Kelly [email protected]

Lyme author Jessica Lahey knew there was an audience for her book, The Gift of Failure: How the Best Parents Learn to Let Go So Their Children Can Succeed, when her earlier article on the topic went viral.

The mom, teacher and writer had taught all over the Upper Valley — Hanover High School, Crossroads Academy and, in the past year, at a drug and alcohol rehab for addicted adolescents — and was writing in an education blog a couple years ago when she decided she wanted a larger audience. She sought advice from friends and family and submitted a story, “Why Parents Need to Let Their Children Fail,” to The Atlantic.

That January 2013 piece described an overparenting study from the Queensland University of Technology by Judith Locke, but it started with a narrative about one of her first experiences with the issue as a new teacher years before. She’d had to call a stu-dent’s mother to inform her she would be initiating disciplinary proceedings against her daughter for plagiarism.

The mother, enraged, explained it wasn’t her daughter who lifted the paragraphs from the website; it was she. She’d written her daughter’s paper.

The story “exploded,” Lahey said via phone a couple weeks before the book’s Aug. 11 release.

Soon, Lahey was doing national TV interviews and contributing regularly for both The Atlantic and The New York Times, where she now writes in a parenting blog, “Motherlode,” every Wednesday. Lahey had been trying to break into the writing industry for years, but now publishers were coming up to her. Eleven publishers, in fact.

Part of the demand, Lahey suspects, came from her perspective as both a teach-er and a parent, which is how she she came to fully realize the effect parents were hav-ing on their children. She was really thrown into awareness when her sons began enter-ing the grades she taught: middle school. Kids were terrified of failing, and parents — including herself — were at fault.

Lahey’s written The Gift of Failure in a way she hopes is both informative and

helpful. It’s part memoir, part research, part how-to. Her favorite books, she said, have always been the ones in which writers try something, screw up and report back about what works and what doesn’t. That’s what she’s done here, with thanks to her guinea pig sons, ages 16 and 11, whom she always checks with before she writes about them.

“The books that are on the market about over-parenting are great. I love them. But they’re the kinds of books — you finish them, and then you feel bad as a parent,” Lahey said. “Experts love to tell us, accord-ing to research, what works and what doesn’t work, but I tend to listen to people who have tried it in their real life. … I real-ly like it when people are honest about their mistakes and talk about the lessons they learned.”

This text is meant to engage, to start a dialogue.

“One thing doesn’t always work for all kids and all parents. So I’d like to be able to engage in conversation,” she said.

She’s had time to work out the kinks of the book; she was in a horse accident, which put off the release a year (it was sup-posed to come out August 2014), but in retrospect, the time off allowed her to really delve into the project and plow through an in-depth edit, not to mention build up pub-licity and a platform with The New York Times and The Atlantic. She’s been work-ing in schools part-time during the book’s release but hopes to go back to full-time in 2016.

“My husband suggested that nobody was going to read about teaching. I was grateful he was wrong,” Lahey said. “I always want-ed to write. But I love, love, love teaching. I’m a writer and a teacher. I don’t think I can give one or the other up.”

The Kindness, by Polly Samson (Bloomsbury, 290 pages)

The protagonists of Polly Samson’s The

Kindness sound like they belong to the House of Duggar, the “19 and counting” reality-show family where, save for the mother, everyone’s name starts with a J.

Julian and Julia — was this really necessary?

But don’t write off The Kindness for excessive alliteration or a too-earnest attempt to make the couple seem existen-tially one. It is an achingly beautiful love story, satisfyingly complex, that at times seems more poetry than prose. It is not a surprise to learn that the author’s writing credits include not only short stories but also song lyrics.

Samson’s gift of language is evident in the opening sentence:

Lucifer flew well for her in the fad-ing light, falling through the sky when she summoned him and away again towards a great bruising sunset.

Lucifer is no fallen angel, but a hawk that belongs to Julia’s abusive husband. She’s taken the bird out to dinner (a rab-bit he must catch himself) on the hill where she first met Julian, a man eight years younger, who’d fallen in love with her upon sight, as if “he’d summoned her from the depths of his hangover. Wished her into being. Ta-dah!”

Within a chapter, Julia’s husband had arrived home unexpectedly and cruelly driven her from the house, and before we can recover from that, Samson delivers the reader eight years in the future where Julia and Julian had moved in together at his childhood estate, and had a child, a girl named Mira.

Mira, however, had taken catastroph-

ically ill — cancer is implied — and now all Julian has left of her — and his family — is a single tiny shoe that had been caught in a hammock. Julia, too, has vanished, leaving behind little but “an old man of twenty-nine before the double hit of nicotine and coffee” and a dog that lives by the door in a constant “state of dashed optimism.”

What happened to Mira unfolds slowly, as Julian trudges forlornly through memories. What happened to Julia is the bigger question that remains until the point of view changes more than half-way through the book — and even then, the answers are so subtle that they may be lost on the casual reader. Those who persevere untangle a mystery. Samson plots like Dan Brown but describes like Longfellow.

People wandering through town “with proud bellies” appear “slow and drunk as if the sunshine is something that must be waded through.”

A moon glints in a window “like a peep-ing Tom.” In a hospital cafeteria, everything tastes “faintly of hand sanitizer.”

And here is Julian, examining sperm under a microscope, “his very own uni-verse composed entirely of comets” : “They seem so purposeful, so bright and full of promise, that for a moment he felt sad for each and every one of them, for their urgency, for the messages they would never get to deliver.”

Samson’s writing credits are among the more interesting of contemporary novel-

ists. She has written two short story col-lections and another novel (Out of the Picture), and contrib-uted lyrics to two Pink Floyd albums as well as two solo records from David Gilmour. (She is married to Gilm-our, a guitarist for Pink Floyd.) Her life history also includes time spent as newspaper jour-nalist, and a period of homelessness after the birth of her first child (she has four).

Such richness of experience comes through in her writing. At 53, hers is a mature voice, conversant in both love and loss, able to craft a carousel of deep-ly flawed yet sympathetic characters (well, sympathetic except for Julia’s first husband).

Karl is Julian’s college friend, a would-be physician fiercely protective of his friend; Katie, Julian’s first girlfriend now a single mom who may still have designs on him; Jenna, Julian’s steely mother, who celebrates each birthday by swimming a mile in a river. (The sun wouldn’t dare not shine on her birthday, Julia drily notes).

There are few truly auxiliary characters in this lush landscape; all have a hand, however inadvertent, in what transpires in the family’s collapse. The Kindness is the literary exposition of the old adage “No good deed goes unpunished.” It explores how an act meant for good can cascade into a waterfall of pain. An ambiguous ending mildly disappoints but does not negate the pleasures of a finely crafted and memorable story. A — Jennifer Graham

• National Library Card month: If you still don’t have a library card, you’re the reason the American Library Association made September Library Card Sign-up Month. Meant to be a reminder for parents and kids especially that a library card is the most important school supply of all, the observance launched in 1987 to meet the challenge of then Secretary of Education William J. Bennett: “Let’s have a national campaign … every child should obtain a library card — and use it.” If you don’t already have a card, you’re missing out on free books, movies, magazines, museum passes — find out what else at your local library.

• Yankee Magazine turns 80: The New England lifestyle magazine published right here in New Hamp-shire turns 80 this September. It was founded in 1935 in Dublin and remains a family-owned, independent mag-azine publisher (also responsible for the ever-famous The Old Farmer’s Almanac). It started at the height of the Depression with just 14 official subscribers, all rela-tives, and today it boasts 300,000, with a total audience of nearly 2 million, according to a recent press release.

NITE’Cross the pondEnglish folksinger begins quick tour in New Hampshire

By Michael [email protected]

In February, Hannah Sanders released her first album, a gorgeous collection of traditional English folk songs spiced with American roots music.

Called Charms Against Sorrow, the record is far from a debut, however. It’s the culmination of a musical lifetime, one that Sanders tried to suppress but couldn’t.

Born in Norwich, England, Sanders grew up in a musical family. Her mother sang at the local folk club in the early 1970s, a time when performers like Pentangle and Fairpoint Con-vention were leading the genre’s revival. Her stepfather’s record collection included rare Dylan bootlegs and early Nic Jones LPs.

“We used to call it his pension, and we were never allowed to touch it,” she said recently. “It was filled with so much great stuff.”

As a teenager, Sanders and her siblings toured the continent with her parents’ band, The Dunns.

“Singing, busking, playing — you name it, we did it,” she said.

But it had worn thin by her 20s. “Living on the road is hard; you’re only

as good as your last gig,” she said. “I was ready to do something else, so I went back to college.”

Academic life led her to Boston. She taught at Emerson College and let music remain in the past.

“I didn’t have room … until I had my kids, when I had lots — endless boring

time,” she said. “I would walk up and down Jamaica Plain pushing the stroller, and as a source of inspiration I started singing again to myself … all the songs of my teen years.”

One night, some friends took Sanders to an Irish session hosted by Liz Simmons and Flynn Cohen; the husband/wife duo coaxed her into doing a song.

“I literally hadn’t sung anything outside of my kitchen for maybe a decade,” she said. “I think Liz saw something before I even saw it myself. … She helped me find my voice, and I owe her a lot.”

Sanders and Simmons soon were play-ing together regularly, eventually working in the studio. Just like that, Sanders was all in, a full-time musician.

“I tried to be like a normal person, but it didn’t go so well,” she said with a laugh.

Now living back in England, Sanders made the new disc in a country cottage with Ben Savage from The Willows producing. On the 11-song collection, Sanders’ singing voice evokes Joni Mitchell’s Blue period, as does her fingerpicked acoustic guitar work, which is rich and textured, particu-larly on “Bonnie Bunch of Roses-o” and “Lord Franklin.” Both are venerable folk tunes, and Sanders views her interpretive role as both a joy and a responsibility.

“I think that is one of the beauties of tra-ditional music; you’re just the carrier of the song,” she said. “But it’s not about me, the song has a life of its own and it’s your job to carry it on. You are part of the canon of this material … but the music is bigger than me. I’m more than happy with that.”

Sanders plans a whirlwind tour to sup-port the stateside release of Charms Against Sorrow — eight shows over 10 days in six states. Simmons and fiddler Katie McNal-ly join for many, including opening night at Portsmouth’s Book & Bar.

“I did that gig with Liz the last time I was in the States and just loved it,” she said. “It had everything I wanted — lovely food and books everywhere … and a lovely audience. I’m really excited to kick off my tour there.”

She’s co-billed with Simmons’ and Cohen’s band Low Lily, also promoting a new record, at Franklin Opera House on Sept. 11. Simmons is looking forward to again making music with her friend, includ-ing a house concert in Freeport, Maine, where they’ll revisit material from last year’s EP, World Begun.

“Hannah and I share a unique musical bond, having grown up (although an ocean apart) in similar childhoods traveling with musician parents, and surrounded by folk music,” Simmons wrote in a recent email. “When I heard her sing and play for the first time, I knew she had something real-ly special, and felt I just had to collaborate with her and bask in her glow. She’s also a joy to tour with.”

Echoed Sanders, “We’re definitely kin-dred spirits.”

SIGNS OF LIFEAll quotes are from Blink, by Malcolm

Gladwell, born Sept. 3, 1963.Virgo (Aug. 23 – Sept. 22) Have you ever

tried to keep track of twenty different emo-tions simultaneously? You’ll be doing alright if you can just keep track of one or two.

Libra (Sept. 23 – Oct. 22) … it is quite possible for people who have never met us and who have spent only twenty min-utes thinking about us to come to a better understanding of who we are than people who have known us for years. Forget the endless “getting to know” meetings and lunches, then. If you want to get a good idea of whether I’d make a good employ-ee, drop by my house one day and take a look around. You will enjoy some “getting to know” time.

Scorpio (Oct. 23 – Nov. 21) Can a mar-riage really be understood in one sitting? Yes it can, and so can lots of other seeming-ly complex situations. Don’t overthink it.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22 – Dec. 21) When it comes to the task of understanding our-selves and our world, I think we pay too much attention to those grand themes and too little to the particulars of those fleet-ing moments. You’re due for a fleeting yet meaningful moment.

Capricorn (Dec. 22 – Jan. 19) Most of us have difficulty believing that a 275-pound football lineman could have a lively and discerning intellect. We just can’t get past the stereotype of the dumb jock. You will meet someone who defies stereotypes. Lis-ten to their story.

Aquarius (Jan. 20 – Feb. 18) We live in a world that assumes that the quality of a decision is directly related to the time and effort that went into making it. A quality decision is needed.

Pisces (Feb. 19 – March 20) Every-one who sat down at one of those tables

was trying to answer a very simple ques-tion: Do I want to see this person again? And to answer that, we don’t need an entire evening. We really need only a few minutes. Speed dating could be just the thing.

Aries (March 21 – April 19) What you avoid when you don’t meet someone face to face are all the confusing and compli-cated and ultimately irrelevant pieces of information that can serve to screw up your judgment. Watch out for irrelevant information.

Taurus (April 20 – May 20) What peo-ple say about themselves can also be very confusing, for the simple reason that most of us aren’t very objective about ourselves. Consider the source.

Gemini (May 21 – June 20) What if we stopped scanning the horizon with our bin-oculars and began instead examining our own decision making and behavior through the most powerful of microscopes? Either way, use lens cleaner.

Cancer (June 21 – July 22) My guess is that many of you have the same impression of Tom Hanks. If I asked you what he was like, you would say that he is decent and trustworthy and down-to-earth and funny. But you don’t know him. You’re not friends with him. Face it. You are not friends with Tom Hanks.

Leo (July 23 – Aug. 22) If you see alpha-betized CDs, a Harvard diploma on the wall, incense on a side table, and laun-dry neatly stacked in a hamper, you know certain aspects about that individual’s per-sonality instantly, in a way that you may not be able to grasp if all you ever do is spend time with him or her directly. Alphabet-ized CDs, a Harvard diploma on the wall, incense on a side table and laundry piled all over the place would tell a different sto-ry entirely.

Barnyard theaterBritish director Missouri Williams

brought an adaptation of Shakespeare’s King Lear to the London Courtyard art facility in August for a one-week run, centered on a human actor struggling to stage the play using only sheep. The piv-otal character, Lear’s daughter Cordelia, famously withholds flattering Lear (thus forgoing inheriting the kingdom), and her silence forever tortures Lear and of course silence is something sheep pull off well. Actor Alasdair Saksena admitted there is an “element of unpredictability with the sheep,” but lauded their punctu-ality, calmness and lack of fee demands. Williams promised another Courtyard run for King Lear With Sheep in the fall.

Suspicions confirmedThe U.S. Patent and Trademark Office

in Alexandria, Virginia, has an award-winning “telework” program allowing patent examiners flexible schedules, leading half of the 8,300 to work at home full-time despite a 2014 Washing-ton Post report on employees gaming the system. In August, the agency’s inspec-tor general exposed several of the most ridiculous cases of slacking off, including one examiner who was paid for at least 18 weeks’ work last year that he did not per-form and that his manager did not notice. (The examiner, who had been issued nine poor-performance warnings since 2012 and who had flaunted his carefree “work-day” to co-workers for years, abruptly resigned two hours before a meeting on the charge and thus left with a “clean” personnel record.) Wrote the Post, “It’s a startling example of a culture that’s maddening.”

Bright ideasOnly China and Iran execute more

prisoners, but Saudi Arabia also has a soft side for jihadists. Saudis who defy a ban on leaving the country to fight (usually against the common ene-my, Syria’s Bashar al-Assad) are, if they return, imprisoned at a maximum-security facility in Riyadh, but with liberal short “vacations” at “Family House,” hotel-quality quarters with good food, playgrounds for children and other privileges (monitored through guest-sat-isfaction surveys). Returning jihadists also have access to education and psy-chologists and receive the equivalent of $530 a month with ATM privileges. The purpose is to persuade the warriors not to return to the battlefield once released, and officials estimate that the program is about 85 percent effective.

Highly committed people• Impersonating a police officer in a

traffic stop is not uncommon, but Logan Shaulis, 19, was apparently so judgment-impaired on May 30 that he set up his own elaborate “DUI checkpoint” on Route 601 near Somerset, Pennsylvania, complete with road flares, demanding “license, reg-istration and insurance” from driver after driver. The irony of the inebriated Shaulis judging motorists’ sobriety was short-lived, as real troopers soon arrived and arrested him (on DUI, among other charges).

• A woman identified only as Zeng, age 39, was finally imprisoned in August in Urumqi, China 10 years after she was convicted of corruption. Availing herself of a traditional “probation” option in Chi-nese law for expectant mothers, Zeng had remained free by getting herself pregnant (and proving it) 14 times during the 10 years (although only some of the fetuses were carried to term).

The Americanization of ChinaAfter five students drowned while

swimming in a reservoir in China’s Yun-nan province, parents of two of them sued the reservoir’s management com-pany, complaining that it should have posted signs or barricades or, even bet-ter, guards to keep kids from frolicking in the dangerous waters. According to an August report, the management com-pany has now countersued the parents, demanding compensation for the addi-tional water-treatment measures it was forced to undertake because the reservoir had been “polluted” by their children’s corpses.

Turtle adventures(1) A female Yangtze giant softshell tur-

tle, believed to be the last female of her species, was artificially inseminated in May at Suzhou Zoo in China through the efforts of animal fertility experts from around the world. She is thought to be more than 100 years old (as was the last male to “romance” her, although their courtship produced only unfertilized eggs). (2) The Times of London reported in July that Brit-on Pamela Horner, seeking her “escaped” tortoise Boris (even though, as they say, he couldn’t have gone far), found “tortoise porn” on YouTube (mostly, mating sounds) to play in the yard and lure him back.

Recurring themes(1) Wrong Place, Wrong Time: Late one

night in July, police in Phoenix were chasing a speeding truck whose driver eventually lost control and careened into a house near Mulberry Drive. As officers were checking for victims (it turned out no one was home), they discovered a large quantity of suspect-ed marijuana and opened an investigation of the super-unlucky residents. (2) Right Place, Right Time: Shane Peters’ cher-ished 2004 Dodge Durango broke down on the road in Livingston, Texas, in June, but before he could return to tow it, a thief hauled it away. About a month later, Peters’ wife spotted the familiar Durango in town and with the help of police got it back with (courtesy of the thief) a newly repaired drive shaft and three new wheels (and the thief’s drug supply, but police seized that).
