GRANITE VIEWS JODY REESE

Criminal justice reforms needed New Hampshire has been and is one of the safest states in the union. Out of the 50 states, we are the fourth-least violent, per capita, and though crime rates are higher than they were 60 years ago, they are about the same as they were 30 years ago. For example, in 1980 the violent crime rate in New Hampshire, according to the U.S. Department of Justice, was 180 crimes per 100,000 people, and in 2012 it was 189. And the murder rate is half what it was in the 1970s and 1980s. That’s an important distinction, because the rate of putting people in prison in New Hampshire has skyrocketed to 8 times what it was in 1980. Today, the state spends in excess of $100 million to keep those 2,600 (or so) people locked up. The state is set to finish construction of a new women’s prison behind the men’s prison in Concord at a cost of $38 million to replace the aging one in Goffstown. It’s not just a New Hampshire trend. Nationally we lock up five times more people today (2011) than we did in 1980, according to the Bureau of Justice Statistics, but violent crime isn’t substantially increased. This begs the question, why? The easy answer is drugs. Enforcement and sentencing of crimes related to the distribution and consumption of drugs has increased. In 1980, according to FBI statistics, across the county all levels of law enforcement arrested about 600,000 people. In 2007 that number was 1.8 million people. Longer sentencing also has a role. In 1980 the average time served for drug trafficking was 2.4 years; in 2004 it was 5.1 years. Conservatives and liberals have joined forces on this issue to reduce the prison population. Conservative activists Charles and David Koch have joined with President Barack Obama and the justice department to reduce mandatory minimum sentences and to decriminalize some behaviors. The past 30 years of criminal justice have seen the overcriminalization of small offenses that fall hardest on the poorest in our communities. A lot has been made lately of the widening gap between college-educated Americans and those without advanced educations. As jobs shift to require more skills, those without are falling further behind. One of the hidden problems underlying this lacks of skills is substance abuse, from both alcohol and drugs, and the resulting criminal penalties. Having a criminal past can make moving up very difficult, and there is little way out. It’s the equivalent of a modern-day debtors prison.

NEWS & NOTES Primary update

The first Republican presidential debates of the election season hosted by Fox News took place on Aug. 6 and provided viewers with several entertaining as well as informative moments. The prime-time debate included the top 10 candidates in the polls; billionaire and real estate mogul Donald Trump was center stage by virtue of his top ranking. Flanking him were former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush, Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker, neurosurgeon Ben Carson, Florida Sen. Marco Rubio, Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul, former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee, Texas Sen. Ted Cruz, New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie and Ohio Gov. John Kasich. Kasich almost didn’t make it into the debate, which took place in his home state, but Business Insider called him an “underdog winner.” His shining moment happened when he told moderators he would love his daughters if they were gay and he recently attended a gay friend’s wedding even though he supports traditional marriage. The debate began with moderator Bret Baier singling out Trump by asking the candidates if they would pledge now to support the GOP nominee if it isn’t them. Trump alone said he wouldn’t commit to that since he hasn’t ruled out running as an independent in the general election. Many fear this would split the Republican vote and hand the Oval Office to the Democrats. Immigration was a significant topic during the debate. Trump was put to task by moderator Chris Wallace to supply the proof Trump claims to have that the Mexican government is responsible for sending criminals over the border. Trump largely dodged the question, saying he’s talked with border patrol and that the Mexican government is smarter than the U.S. government. Bush and Rubio touted plans to reform immigration. Bush said there needs to be a path to legal status through paying fines and passing other benchmarks. Rubio said legal immigration also needs to be made easier. NPR reported that Trump had the most speaking time, with more than 10 minutes, Bush had the second most with more than 8 minutes and Paul spoke the least with just under 5 minutes. The Union Leader reported that,

in the second-tier candidate debate that preceded the prime time debate, former HP CEO Carly Fiorina made much of a Washington Post article that reported former President Bill Clinton spoke with Trump on the phone days before he entered the race. CNN later reported that Trump denied Clinton talked him into running. Meanwhile, NHPR reported the Democratic party released its sixdebate schedule, including one in New Hampshire in December, but rivals to Hillary Clinton have railed against it, arguing it favors the frontrunner because most of the debates take place after the Iowa caucus and possibly the New Hampshire primary. But who the frontrunner is has become a matter of some debate as Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders is now only six points behind Clinton in a recent WMUR poll, which is within the margin of error and therefore counts as a “statistical” tie.

No confidence

The Manchester school board voted “no confidence” in the city’s mayor, who also serves as the school board chair. More than 200 Manchester teachers in red shirts rallied in front of city hall on Aug. 10 and as many as could fit crammed into the aldermanic chambers for the first school board meeting since Mayor Ted Gatsas vetoed the teacher’s union contract. Several teachers, students, parents and all three mayoral challengers spoke during the public input session, most expressing dissatisfaction with the mayor. The board was originally prepared to vote on pay increases for the superintendent and other top administrators who already make six-digit salaries but it tabled the vote after Superintendent Debra Livingston told the board she will not negotiate a new contract until the teachers get one. A majority of the school board members wore red shirts in solidarity with the teachers

Heroin emergency?

Gov. Maggie Hassan denied a request by Manchester Mayor Ted Gatsas to declare a state of emergency over the intensifying heroin overdose crisis. The Union Leader reported such a declaration would activate public health powers of the Department of Health and Human Services as well as empower agen-

cies to quarantine and destroy the substance, but in a letter sent to Gatsas, Hassan said agencies are already empowered to do this since heroin is an illegal substance. Most varieties of synthetic cannabinoids, or “spice,” were still legal when she declared a public health emergency last August when more than 40 individuals suffered severe medical reactions to smoking the drug. Gatsas also had hoped that $2.5 million in federal funds for substance abuse treatment could be redirected for a drug court in the city, but the attorney general advised a state of emergency would not allow for that.

Planned Parenthood

New Hampshire is not immune to the national controversy over Planned Parenthood and efforts to defund it. On Aug. 5, the state’s Executive Council voted 3-2 against renewing contracts for Planned Parenthood centers in New Hampshire. NHPR reported Republican Councilor Chris Sununu cast the deciding vote. He had voted in favor of Planned Parenthood in past attempts to defund it, but this time he said it was time to pause and reevaluate the relationship. At issue are a series of edited videos allegedly depicting Planned Parenthood officials talking about fees for fetal tissue. Planned Parenthood of Northern New England says it does not donate fetal tissue for research. And it said the loss of expected state funds may result in reduced hours at clinics, layoffs and an adjustment in prices. Gov. Maggie Hassan said she was troubled that anyone would vote against the contracts because of the political climate in Washington. An effort to cut funding to Planned Parenthood died in the Sen-

CONCORD

Mayor Ted Gatsas’ pick for senior services director in Manchester was met with some opposition from some aldermen as well as 186 city seniors who signed a petition calling for the promotion of an internal candidate. The Union Leader reported the Board of Mayor and Aldermen approved Gatsas’ nomination of Gail Ann Senno.

have been granted extensions. NHPR reported the Granite State’s extension is for one year. In exchange, the state had to develop plans to improve education quality and outcomes and eliminate inequities. The U.S. Department of Education cited New Hampshire’s updated student database and new networks for collaboration among educators as supporting factors for awarding the waiver.

COFFEE ROASTERS

New Hampshire Attorney General Joseph Foster’s Consumer Protection and Antitrust Bureau reached an agreement with H&R Block that requires the company to refund 656 Granite State customers a total of $33,587.30. The Union Leader reported H&R Block had charged those consumers for preparing New Hampshire business and profits tax returns, but it did not file any such returns. The agreement also calls for H&R Block to improve its protocols and training so these errors don’t happen again, and for the company to pay the state for the cost of the investigation and $5,000 in lieu of a civil penalty. To find out if you are due a refund, call 1-855-210-7145.

About 200 workers were evacuated from a Commercial Street building in Manchester last Thursday morning. Workers at Mill City Roasting were roasting coffee beans on the third floor when the beans ignited, sending flames up a 20-foot metal chimney and on to the roof. Fire crews had to cut through the roof and the floor to extinguish the flames, which was difficult because of the large mill’s timber construction. The fire caused about $20,000 in damage. Nobody was injured, according to the Union Leader, and the fire was extinguished in about 30 minutes.

The life of a campaign staffer

Long list of presidential candidates makes for seller’s market for local staff By Ryan Lessard

news@hippopress.com

Behind every candidate for president is an army of dedicated campaign staff, and in the key, early-voting state of New Hampshire, a handful of people have made careers as political operatives.

Influential locals

A campaign’s hierarchy, by all accounts, is rarely a top-down authoritarian approach. Serial campaign staffers say it’s far more common to see a team of collaborators brainstorming a strategy. But if there were a clear food chain, senior advisors and strategic consultants would be close to the top of it. And if a presidential campaign is putting most of its chips on New Hampshire, then experienced strategists from the state will hold more sway. Jim Merrill, an attorney and state director of the Bernstein Shur Group, has worked on presidential campaigns since 1999, when he was a staffer for George W. Bush. “I’ve been a field staffer, I’ve been a grassroots chairman, I’ve been legal counsel, I’ve been a campaign manager, I’ve been a general consultant slash senior advisor. So, I’ve been in multiple roles over the years,” Merrill said. He’s presently a senior advisor to Marco Rubio’s campaign in New Hampshire and the Northeast. Rubio is a young U.S. senator from Florida with his eyes on the Oval Office. This is the fifth presidential cycle Merrill has been involved with. Prior to that, he worked for Gov. Stephen Merrill. “It’s not for everybody, that’s for sure. But it’s very rewarding work,” Merrill said. “It’s the experience of a lifetime.” As a consultant, he’s responsible for the overall direction of the campaign, communications, staffing and logistics. “I enjoy the process of building a campaign, often times from scratch,” Merrill said. “It is a rare job where you may, at some point in the campaign, be required at 2 in the morning to change plans for a candidate’s visit the very next day. It is a very rare job where you are directing volunteers and traffic for an election that’s gonna happen the next day.”

Ben Carson’s state director, Dave Tille, watches the Voters First Forum at a staff watch party.

Merrill says a good campaign staffer needs to be a jack of all trades, with skills in communications, organizational skills and the ability to work under deadline. David Tille, another serial campaign staffer and policy advisor for elected officials, echoes this, saying staffers are often self-motivated, altruistic and determined individuals. “It’s unusual work in the sense that ... it’s very consuming work. People that work in campaigns, they really put their heart and soul in it,” Tille said. Tille is currently the state director ALICIA PRESTON for the Ben Carson campaign in New Hampshire. A U.S. Army veteran, he got his start in politics when he interned for Pete du Pont’s presidential primary campaign in 1988.

There are a lot of months you don’t have a paycheck or you have a really small one, and you struggle.

HIPPO | AUGUST 13 - 19, 2015 | PAGE 6

Risky business

For Alicia Preston, who’s working on former New York Gov. George Pataki’s campaign, there are a few other qualifications to being a campaign staffer. “[You have to be] someone who’s clearly certifiable,” Preston said. “You have to be willing to take on a little bit of risk. It is a very unsure career because you have seasons to your employment. But most people I know who join this field honestly do it

because they believe in what they’re doing.” Preston calls herself a “true believer” Republican who gets to do her hobby for a living. She first got exposed to political campaigns as a child helping her uncle, Bob Preston of Hampton, run for state senate, governor and congressional office. Ironically, her uncle was a Democrat. Later, Preston got into journalism, where she learned the communications skills she now employs for winning elections. “I was given the opportunity to work for then-Governor Craig Benson. So I took it, and I crossed into the dark side,” Preston said. Preston said the seasonal nature of the work can make it an insecure source of income. Between election seasons, times are lean. “[I] eat store brand-named pasta and wait for the next election,” Preston said. “There are a lot of months you don’t have a paycheck or you have a really small one, and you struggle. But then you get back up and you do it again because you believe in it.” Since the work is so temporary, Preston said the contracts usually set a monthly wage. “Someone working the field can make $2,500 a month. Someone higher up can make anywhere up to $12,000 to $15,000. ... For a state director, it can be anywhere from $5,000 to that, depending on what the role of the state director is,” Preston said. According to Federal Election Commission filings, the Rubio campaign is paying the Bernstein Shur Group about $12,000 a month, and the Carson campaign is pay-

ing Tille about $7,500 a month plus travel expenses. Probably the best-paid campaign staffer in New Hampshire this election season is Corey Lewandowski, who Politico reported is earning $20,000 a month working for billionaire Donald Trump’s campaign. That would be $240,000 a year, to put it in perspective. The article also noted Lewandowski has a home in Windham valued at over $800,000 and supports a family of six, though he grew up poor in Lowell, Mass. Many Republicans fear taking a job with a party pariah like Trump will burn bridges in the long run, so few jumped at the chance. For those like Preston, who are working the grind for more modest pay, things are getting better. “It’s gotten easier, to be honest, in the last few years because there are more organizations that work beyond just the [election] cycle,” Preston said. She does freelance public relations and communication work for issue advocacy groups and corporations when there are no candidates running for office. But lately, the election seasons have been getting longer. “Campaigns seem to be starting earlier. There are certainly several months off, but it’s not like it has been in the past where you’re on 10 months and you’re off the politics for another year plus,” Preston said.

Seller’s market

Preston says there’s no one way to get connected with a campaign. “Sometimes I’ve approached candidates. Sometimes, they’ve approached me. But it always has been a mutual decision because as much as they have to like and want to hire me, first and foremost, I have to believe that the person ... should hold that office,” Preston said. “Certainly, a lot of staffers will apply to, or approach ... multiple campaigns and see what works out best. Especially in a presidential election where you have multiple candidates running in the same party, it’s more of a process than just ‘here’s my application.’” She said the final decision can come down to pay, title and role or which candidate the staffer feels is the best fit. And Merrill said campaigns often compete over certain staffers. “Especially in a cycle like this where you have so many candidates, there’s a finite pool of experienced staffers out there. So it does happen at times when you have staffers who have multiple opportunities.” Merrill said. “It has been a seller’s market.”

Inmates on the move

Walkaways from low-security facilities on the rise

The number of inmates who escaped from state custody by failing to check in at halfway houses or other low-security facilities on time doubled between 2013 and 2014 and is on track to be even higher this year.

Recent cases

New Hampshire Department of Corrections spokesperson Jeffrey Lyons said there were five walkaways in 2013 and 11 in 2014. So far, there have been nine this year, according to Lyons. “During a typical year, we’ll see six or seven walkaways,” Lyons said. In one of the most recent cases, on July 23, Bruno Joseph Martin walked away from the Calumet Transitional Housing Unit in Manchester. Martin left the halfway house to head to work that morning, and when he didn’t arrive at 10 p.m. as scheduled, he was placed on escape status. Then, less than 24 hours later, a second man from the same facility named Charles Arthur Namiot walked away. Namiot, who was serving two to eight years for armed robbery, was found four days later in Manchester as he was about to turn himself in. Martin, who was serving two to four years for burglary, was caught crossing the border into Canada. And on July 3, a male inmate escaped from the Corrections Transitional Work Center in Concord and was returned to custody 12 days later. Earlier, on May 21, a male inmate at the North End Transitional Housing Unit in Concord walked away, and a female inmate walked away from the Shea Farm Transitional Housing Unit in Concord just hours later. Both were caught within a few days. Lyons said that while these cases are informally known as walkaways, they are still taken very seriously. “It can still be charged as an escape because you’re escaping from official custody,” Lyons said. “We call it a ‘walkaway’ because these inmates are already being allowed to walk away from the facility to go to work, for example, to go to job assignments, to go to AA meetings or NA meetings. Sometimes, we give them permission to go job-seeking, or give them permission to have a furlough where they might spend a couple days with a family member.”

Why they walk

Lyons said that the inmates will leave or miss curfew for a variety of reasons, often including substance abuse. “More often than not, we have found that

these are inmates who … now have this taste of freedom. They are at a much lower level of security. They have much more flexibility to come and go, and I think they take advantage of it, hoping they can maybe go out and visit a friend, possibly go out and obtain narcotics or get a drink or something under the guise of going to work,” Lyons said. Occasionally, Lyons said, they’ll sabotage their imminent parole for fear of the responsibilities that living on the outside entails. Unless investigators determine an inmate missed their scheduled hour of return for a legitimate reason like a medical issue, inmates are invariably charged with escaping and may get their prison sentences extended. “A majority of the people do what they’re supposed to do because they want to be released on time and they want to move on with their lives, but there’s always some who either get anxious or excited or make thoughtless decisions, and it just causes more problems for them,” Lyons said. Joe Diament, the director of the DOC’s division of community corrections, oversees the halfway houses. He says every case is unique, and there’s no data to suggest the increase in the number of walkaways is attributable to drug addiction or any other single factor. “There is no single, driving cause,” Diament said. “We are dealing with people in the criminal justice system, and it’s an actuarial business. Some people respond to what we do. Some people will not.” While Diament said he’s concerned about the increase in walkaways, there’s little to be done about it. “I’m not doubting that the trend is upwards, but it’s not due to any significant change in policy,” Diament said. However, Diament did say he thinks it probably couldn’t hurt to expand transitional services. “I wish we had more facilities,” Diament said. “One of the realities is we keep pushing the number of beds up in these facilities to the maximum allowed, and, frankly, the facilities are overcrowded.” The Calumet house in Manchester has about 78 beds, the Shea Farm house for women has about 48 and the North End house has 44 beds, according to Diament. And staff at each house has been spread thin. “There used to be two or three councilors available at each facility. We now have one,” Diament said. “The department has been cut repeatedly. People want to lock a lot of people up, but they don’t want to pay for it.”

Researching Market Basket

101121

How did you first get involved in researching the Market Basket phenomenon? I first found out about it in the news, like most people, back in 2013. What drew me into the story was what I was seeing was reflective of a lot of the research I’ve done over the past 12 years. ... Arthur [T. Demoulas’] management style and the style of the executive team at Market Basket is one of responsible leadership, and it doesn’t always take the traditional route that most companies do, which is having a lot of social responsibility programs. It’s more about making a workplace with dignity for employees ... and a place where people and sometimes vulnerable populations are able to put food on the table. … When I started to see there was such a strong outpouring of people because of this management approach, it was, to me, pretty striking evidence that these things can pay off in terms of company performance.

they were trying to reinstate the CEO, who they loved … and second of all, that the sentiment was so strong and so widespread.

Many people saw Arthur T. as materially conDaniel Korschun nected to their benefits and working conditions. Was he? I can’t say what would’ve happened had he not been reinstated, but I think the chances are very good that a lot of things would have changed at the company. Number one, it looks like it would have been sold possibly to Delhaize Group, and they have a history of making some changes. … But the reality is, every time there’s a corporate takeover, there are changes. And this was a group of people Where there any historical parallels from [who] were fighting as much for this culture your research that helped frame this for you? that had developed over time as they were for There were a lot of parallels but nothing that anything else. matched up perfectly. … [In] the early 1900s, there was a very well-known Bread and RosHow is Market Basket doing now?

The average price of a gallon of gas in New Hampshire has fallen 4.6 cents over the past week. As of Aug. 10, the price of gas was $2.55 per gallon on average. According to Gasbuddy.com, this closely mirrors the national average, which fell by 5.4 cents and was pegged at $2.60 per gallon. The price of gas in the state has dropped by 15.7 cents compared to the month prior and 97.6 cents compared to the same time last year. Analysts attribute the continuing decrease in gas prices to the declining cost of crude oil and the record output of U.S. refineries. QOL Score: +1 Comment: U.S. refineries are exceeding 17 barrels a day. Output levels haven’t been that high since the Energy Information Administration began releasing the data in 1990.

Foreclosures up Despite what analysts say is a continuing downward trend in the number of home foreclosures, June saw a jump in foreclosures to their highest monthly number this year. NHPR reported there were 181 foreclosures in June. Other figures that point to a long-term rise in foreclosures, such as foreclosure auction notices, remain down, so analysts believe June’s spike is an anomaly. June’s foreclosures were 23 percent higher than June 2014, which saw 147, but lower than the three years prior. QOL Score: -1 Comment: Foreclosures in June were up 150 percent from May, which only saw 71.

The

14th Hole

The Drive:

A fun hole where you can’t pull out the big dog and just wail away. If you do – you’ll roll into the large pond that cuts across the fairway 235 yards from the tee. If too short off the tee, you’ll have to wallop a long iron to clear the pond that reaches within 50 yards of the green. It’s tight and out of bounds left all the way to the pond, so if you miss make it to the right. (1) So it’s five wood or a hybrid off the tee to get it far enough out there to leave (2) a short iron to the green.

Par 4 358 Yards

The Green:

It’s one of LCC’s bigger greens with big breaks putting from the front to the middle and from the right side. When the cup’s in the middle be careful because there’s an often unnoticed downhill slope just behind it, because if you go by too fast speed it’s a testy 10 footer coming back.

It’s astonishing how often the media drives a major story with a mixture of hysteria, hyperbole, knee-jerk reactions, incorrect information, analysis based on personal bias, little backbone and just plain being dumb. As a result little context is injected, especially when the public rarely questions what really lies behind the latest controversy of the day. Thus Donald Sterling immediately becomes Gov. George Wallace trying to prevent the first black students from enrolling at the University of Alabama instead of a sad, rich version of Archie Bunker while the NBA wears the white hat for running him off, even though they had passed on worse when he lost the largest housing discrimination suit in U.S. history. The media’s question should have been why didn’t the league act sooner on a racist owner? Answer: They didn’t until sponsors spoke up and threatened their cash. Ditto when Roger the Dodger finally got tough on Ray Rice after ignoring nearly 100 other domestic assault cases in the 21st century. Last week was another one of those weeks, where ESPN’s Chris Mortensen finally spoke after chickening out of an interview with WEEI about his untrue tweet ignited the Deflate-gate story. There was Globie Chris Gaspar sounding like Neville Chamberlain imploring Tom Brady to settle for a onegame suspension to put Deflate-gate behind him and saying all this negative publicity is bad for everyone. There was another Globie, Joan Vennochi, asking if “Donald Trump’s moment” was over after his aggressive, contentious performance at the GOP debate, while joining the “he’s anti-women” chorus. I’ve never been a big fan of The Donald, who first injected himself into the national conversation by signing back-to-back Heisman Trophy winners in the ’80s as owner of the New Jersey Generals in the USFL and later suing the NFL on antitrust grounds. He’s a bragger and a bully, whose motives are driven by an ego the size of Kansas, and I’ve said enough along those lines here to get called a fat, dumb, loser by him on twitter. But I’m enjoying the show. First because by ignoring standard rules of political engagement he’s dominating the news cycle and made the professional politicians bit players and they don’t like it. Second, his leading the polls flies in the face of what many media blowhards (including me) said when he entered the race and they don’t like that. Not to mention it’s got the GOP party elite’s and its TV network/PR arm Fox News’ panties in a bunch because he’s messing with the master plan.

So all are now trying to run him off. The problem is, John Kasich is right, he’s hit a nerve, as many voters are sick of what professional politicians have turned politics into. So Megyn Kelly wants to know if his Rosie O’Donnell feud makes him anti-women. But since he’s said a lot worse about Mark Cuban, President Obama and Barbara Walters, how come he’s not being called anti-men, anti-black and anti-octogenarian too? It’s simpler than that — he’s just anti-Roise and just more obnoxious than Elisabeth Hasselbeck during her battles with the ever obnoxious Rosie. And then there’s Vennochi hoping Trump’s moment is over. I don’t know what planet she lives on, but anyone who checks his poll numbers, ego and bank account and knows Ross Perot got 20 percent of the vote in 1992 knows in some way, shape or form he’s in this until Election Day 2016. So might as well enjoy the show. Now on to Mort. Saying he needs to “vet” his sources better and didn’t pull down his erroneous Twitter story on deflated balls for six months because he was technically incompetent is BS. First if I knowingly had a false story out there, I’d get my technically proficient son to take it down if I couldn’t. Plus he knew EXACTLY who his source was, and if he didn’t act they’d just go to someone else and he wanted to be first. Then there’s Gasper calling for Brady to accept a reduced suspension after his now public testimony revealed he said under oath and threat of perjury he was innocent. Which means unless he’s as dumb as Roger Clemens he didn’t do it. If true, I would say to Gaspar, screw cooler heads because he shouldn’t take a hit to his reputation to help the team or for the sake of peace in our time. Especially since while it may have been about punishing the Pats in the beginning, now it’s personal between the NFL and Players Association, and Brady is just caught in the middle. That’s why the fight has become so fierce and how Goodell got Bob Kraft to back off in May. Finally, I beg to differ this is all bad for the NFL. Has any league ever dominated the news cycle in its off season like the NFL this year? It’s drowned out every local story, including the Sox’ third last-place finish in four years. Outside New England it’s amped up the drama by giving haters a black hat to root against more vigorously. If Brady’s suspension is erased he’s in the opener against the Steelers on national TV. If not, it gives the haters a chance to see them stomped with a backup QB and get Brady in his first game back facing the Colts. Think that’s an accident? I don’t. So after the summer of the NFL the only thing left is to see what the media misreads next. Email Dave Long at dlong@hippopress.com.

Neville Chamberlain: British prime minister whose capitulations emboldened Adolf Hitler to make him think he could take Poland in 1939 without resistance instead of it being the opening round of World War II. Rosie O’Donnell: Left-leaning drama queen loudmouth generally made out to be Satan in drag by the right when contentiously battling Elisabeth Hasselbeck regularly as a panelist on The View. She’s now being made a sympathetic figure by many of those same folks to help run off Donald Trump for his once cheered, long ago unkind comments to Rosie. Chris Gaspar: Boston Globe columnist who, in using words like “calumny” and “febrile,” either has a large vocabulary or is trying build a rep for having a bounteous vocab through extensive use of his thesaurus. Either way, such use brings to mind the episode of M*A*S*H when while taking a writing course through the mail, Radar asks in the chow line for a “smattering of hash and a modicum of potatoes,” leading an exasperated Col.

Shop outside at arts markets, flea markets, yard sales and more It’s summertime, and the shopping is easy. With the warmer weather comes the chance to shop outside, and you can find all kinds of items from so many different places — including your neighbor’s driveway. Yard sales are typically limited to the summer season (because who wants to set up their castoffs in snowbanks?), and while you can find year-round arts markets and flea markets, there’s something more relaxed about browsing for unique crafts and random knick-knacks in the open air. Four Hippo reporters visited different shopping venues — a yard sale, a flea market, an arts market and a pair of mobile shops. They share their experiences and their favorite finds, plus info on how and where to do your own outdoor shopping.

(That night it would host the Houston Bernard Band, but at the time, crew members were still testing mikes and performing sound checks.) A kettle corn vendor sat at one end of the park, which you could smell from the other. Elm Street was pretty crowded that day. People were all over the streets, getting out of work or participating in the Manchester Open Doors trolley tour. Though there was still an hour before the music would start, there were already crowds trickling to the lawn, folding chairs and blankets in tow. One of the things I enjoy most about these kinds of markets is talking to the maker — how do you learn, for instance, that the perfect material for a beach tote is actually recycled grocery bags?

Reimagining retail with mobile businesses

Jewelry and accessories truck parked in downtown Contoocook. Photo by Allie Ginwala.

By Allie Ginwala

aginwala@hippopress.com

Three shops on wheels opened in the Granite State in 2014, and they’re back on the street this summer, selling everything from jewelry and clothing to hats and handmade goods.

Inspired to go mobile

Kim and Beth SanSoucie, the mother-daughter team behind Niche Boutique, wanted to open a mobile business as a way to spend more time together. They toyed with the idea of a food truck but decided that what New Hampshire could really use was a fashion truck. “We finally realized that we both love to shop [and] it would be great,” Kim SanSoucie said. “We’d have a lot of fun together.”

artisans and the New England Apparel Club Show in Marlboro, Mass. SanSoucie said they like to visit the show to get a feel for the clothes in person. “We even take pictures and put it out on Facebook and say, ‘Yay or nay?’ just to get some feedback,” she said. Hopf gets her jewelry and accessories from vendors across the country and overseas, trying to get as broad and funky a range as she can. “Quite frankly, everything in here is something I would own,” she said. “It’s great to be a store that kind of has stuff before all the huge mall stores have it. I like having fun, cool things that people can’t find anywhere else.” The handmade items in Murphy’s shop are all New England-based — some are her own work, like skirts and leather bracelets, while other items like jewelry

The jewelry, ranging in price from $7 to $50, was whimsical and funky— earrings with a pattern of leaves or even large golden bugs (which Hopf was wearing during our interview). The flat spaces were adorned with little clay pots, mason jars with sipping covers and plenty of sunglasses. Coolest cheap thing: A host of paper products at Moonshine Truck. The sticky notes and memo pads shaped like pandas, puppies and llamas are all under $5. Coolest more expensive thing: A detailed mini purse at Niche Boutique. It comes from a company in the U.K., sold for $42.

experience is the atmosphere. An oddity by nature of simply being a store on wheels, the shops attract the type of customer who seeks out the unique. SanSoucie said people who come aboard Niche Boutique almost always start off by asking, “so what’s your story?” With conversation coming naturally, they avoid that awkward hovering shopkeeper-customer interaction. “Here, it’s just like we’re girlfriends and we’re just talking MARY HOPF and having a good time,” she said.

Putting it all in place

All styles and types of events, exceptional facility and manicured grounds, outstanding service and cuisine, group tastings and tours, team building programs and much more! Make your occasion memorable by hosting your event at LaBelle Winery!

Quite frankly, everything in here is something I would own.

While the insides may look effortlessly put into place, all three shops require a lot of TLC when it comes to preparing to open. Niche Boutique can take up to an hour to set up and 45 minutes to take down. The clothing on the racks stays in place with a bungee cord while the purses, jewelry and handmade items are packed into totes for travel. Hopf has a similar system for Moonshine Truck— anything on a flat surface is packed away, jewelry displays are taken apart to help preserve them and anything wall-hanging gets bungeed in place. For Concord Handmade however, nothing can stay in place in the camper during travel. Products, display pieces and basically everything that’s not a shelf gets packed away, leaving Murphy an hour and a half to set up and 45 minutes to take down. One thing that sets the mobile shopping experience apart from the storefront

Follow that shop

Niche Boutique: Find them parked regularly on the corner of Oak and Messer streets and at Faro Italian Grille in Laconia. (See curbside dates and other events at facebook.com/nicheboutiquenh). Their season runs from late March through November. Moonshine Truck: Mostly event-based; follow posts on Facebook (facebook.com/ moonshinetruck) to see where Moonshine is heading next. Her season typically continues through January. Concord Handmade: Every Saturday for the rest of the month, she’ll be at the Concord Arts Market in Bicentennial Square. Check Facebook (facebook. com/concordhandmade) for other events. The season continues through November, when Murphy shuts down the mobile shop and opens the holiday popup.

Southern New Hampshire's popular flea markets Nearby Flea Markets

It's been close to four years since the Grandview Flea Market in Derry was shut down as part of a lawsuit by Coach for vendors selling counterfeit items with its brand name, but several major flea markets are still alive and well in southern New Hampshire.

Davisville Flea Market Where: 805 Route 103 East, Warner Hours: Open every Sunday from 4 a.m. to 4 p.m. from the last Sunday in April to the last Sunday in October. Visit: davisvillefleamarket.com

The markets

Shoppers and perusers looking for a sweet deal or a rare collectible enjoy rummaging through the discarded or done-with at New Hampshire's various indoor and hybrid indoor/outdoor flea markets. What many may dismiss as junk may in fact be a treasure to the right person. While online reselling sites like Amazon and eBay have, in many ways, solved the problems inherent with connecting obscure product with connoisseur buyer, the personal experience of haggling with vendors or exploring through piles of old toys, movies, music and books is missing. And, of course, you don't need to pay for shipping at a flea market. Lisa Robert of Hudson likes to visit the Londonderry Flea Market often for jewelry and things she might need around the house. “I just like to walk around and get some exercise and try to... find good deals,” Robert said. “I go to see different people, what they have to offer.” Jack Hussey of Boston is a professional DJ who is always on the lookout for music.

“I buy CDs, and I buy DVDs, and I buy Mickey Mouse stuff,” Hussey said while shopping. Hussey likes to collect Disney memorabilia and vintage collectibles. “I found four or five CDs, and I’m thinking of going after the doll that's right there. It's old Mickey,” Hussey said. Many flea markets offer more than just old clothes, furniture or appliances. They also often offer pawn loans,

concession stands, antique car displays and live music. And most places allow dogs. Kevin Linehan of Atkinson is a vendor at the Londonderry market. He likes Londonderry over other markets because it's outdoors. “I buy storage units and I put the expensive things on eBay and sell the rest through here,” Linehan said. “I had a lot of extra

stuff [from] buying those units. It's worth something. I don't want to trash it.” This is Linehan's first year selling at the flea market. “[Organizers] are very good. It's convenient because I can leave my stuff here. And then I can come any time during the week. I don't have to come at a specific time, so [that] makes it easy,” Linehan said.

They sold for yellow box of 16 pastel crayons for 50 cents next to a roll of pens wrapped together with about $4 each.

I came across the one-hit-wonder of beaded earrings and a pink, $2 paperback album by teen boy band Hanson, Middle of of Sabrina the Teenage Witch: Good Switch, Nowhere, and had flashbacks of sixth grade.

Most of the things I saw were Another fan of cutlery sold $25 katanas not old enough to classify as antiques, though and decorative wall-mount swords around some certainly were. I came across vintage $50. He told me he had a “ranger sword”

from Lord of the Rings in his truck worth $325 and offered to bring it out for me. I politely declined. Another man made table lamps out of emptied liquor bottles. Several vendors sold marijuana pipes. And another guy sold “rescued” rocks “saved from the bulldozer’s blade” to be used as “accent pieces.” Caught up in the moment, I almost purchased an eight-disc audiobook of a novelization of a video game based on a popular movie franchise for $2 (talked down from $4), but the eighth disc was missing. Coolest cheap thing: The Star Trek Compendium by Allan Asherman, $4 Coolest more expensive thing: An ostensibly still-functional TV, radio, turntable combination cabinet circa 1960, $50 (likely negotiable)

A growing trend is changing the way people yard sale; the days of driving around, following hand-drawn signs to mysterious, hit-or-miss sales are gone. Now, yard salers are turning to social media to find and advertise sales and even individual items. Tiffany Faulhefer of Manchester has been hosting and attending yard sales with her mother her whole life. In the past, they lived on a busy road and didn’t need to do much advertising for their sales. After moving to a more secluded area, however, Faulhefer started looking for new ways to attract customers. For her most recent sale, she ventured into the world of social media. “We had a great turnout; we’d have up to five or six cars at a time,” she said. “I know it made a huge difference because at least half of the people who came told me they found our sale online.” Many yard salers use Craigslist to find and advertise sales. Simply search the yard sale section for your area and you’re

Some yard salers are going a step further, using areaspecific yard sale Facebook groups to connect with local buyers and sellers. Some groups have over 1,000 members and are rapidly growing.

Facebook can be updated minute-tominute with the latest yard sale news and is viewed consistently by a larger volume of people. Facebook groups also allow people to converse in real time. Buyers can ask sellers for more details about an item, negotiate prices or even have an item put on hold. “If you’re going to yard sale, you have to use social media,” Faulhefer said. “When you just follow a yard sale sign, you don’t know what they’re offering, and it’s a waste of time.

ARTS How to create a comic book Epping resident discusses the journey of Bowery Boys By Kelly Sennott

ksennott@hippopress.com

To many a comic book nerd, Cory Levine had the dream job as an editor for Marvel Comics in New York City. It wasn’t as glamorous as it might have seemed, though, once you got to the crux of his duties. Besides the graphic design aspect, the job was uncreative in nature, and Levine, an Epping resident and UNH alum, was itching to produce something that was his own. Blame his Marvel coworkers. “I think working in the industry and being surrounded by people who were so passionate [about] what they were creating was really an inspiration for me,” Levine said over coffee in Manchester last week. So with Marvel inspiration and experience in his back pocket, Levine decided to create his own comic book. He pitched a handful of stories to New York artists and partnered with at-the-time art student Ian Bertram in 2011. Their project: Bowery Boys, which would take three years to complete. Theirs is a tale that occurs during the grit and grime of mid-19th-century Manhattan, Meet Cory Levine Where: Barnes & Noble, 1741 S. Willow St., Manchester, 668-5557 When: Saturday, Aug. 22, 1-3 p.m. Contact: Levine will also be at the Granite State Comic Con in September (granitecon.com). More at boweryboyscomic.com.

a time of political corruption, vicious street gangs, nascent labor reform and ardent xenophobia. At the story’s center is a boy, Nikolaus McGovern, who rallies together a crew of street youths after his Irish immigrant father is framed for murder. The idea stemmed from an article he read about the time period, specifically New York’s lack of a public waste system. People threw their trash out the window and onto the streets, which Levine thought could make for some interesting imagery. “Ian and I were both living in New York City at the time, and we both agreed that … you really develop a relationship with [a] place if you live there long enough,” Levine said. “We both kind of had rela-

tionships with the city, which we wanted to explore through our art. This gave us an outlet to do that.” The book was produced during a backand-forth of writing, illustrating and editing between Levine, Bertram and another illustrator, Brent McKee, over three years. They pitched the book to publishers the first time after they’d completed about 10 pages. Nobody bit. But Levine decided to keep at it. It required work on nights and weekends — he had to work another full-time job to support himself while he wrote — and whenever they finished a page, they posted to their website, boweryboys.com. To continue was a “big gamble,” but at the same time, it was a passion project.

They believed in the quality of the story, and Levine intended to finish it with or without a big-name publisher. “I think part of it was just the faith in the project. Maybe part of it was blind, stupid faith, but faith nonetheless. There was this sense that things were starting to open up.There were more avenues for self-published work and creator-owned projects than there were 5 or 10 years ago,” Levine said. “We didn’t do it because we were trying to earn our livings off it or because it was our jobs. We did it because we loved it and we felt we had to. The thing about creativity — you’re compelled to do it, you have to do it. It’s not really a choice sometimes.” In 2014, Dark Horse Comics, one of the biggest comic publishing houses outside Marvel and DC, came back and offered a book contract. Levine had moved back to the Granite State by that point — he was “burnt out” of New York City, and while he grew up in Worcester, he’d fallen in love with New Hampshire as an undergrad English major. It was released last week, and he celebrated with a launch party at Stairway to Heaven Comics in Exeter. He’s still working in marketing full time, and he’s started another project he remained mum about, but at the time of his interview, he was still reveling in the book, which had been dropped off at his doorstep the Monday prior. “It made my heart jump. It was a lot of time and effort and blood, sweat and work, but you know, it’s kind of all wrapped up in that one little physical object for me. It’s very meaningful,” he said.

Why play the ukulele? June Pinkham says it’s the “world’s happiest instrument.” “It really is. People might argue with this, but I think it’s really hard not to play a happy tune on a ukulele,” Pinkham, a member of the Southern New Hampshire Ukulele Group, said via phone last week. “It’s also very easy to learn how to play, and it’s very portable. I take mine on our sailboat. I think the simplicity of it is what makes it very appealing to a lot of people.” And so the third annual New Hampshire Ukulele Picnic this Saturday, Aug. 15, from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m., is a happy one; it occurs at Greeley Park, and “ukesters” from all over will be listening to and strumming on the ukulele, in the park and onstage. Nashua residents Michael and Ben Chung started the event in 2013. Ukulele picnics, Michael Chung said, are common in Hawaii, where he’s from, and he thought New Hampshire could use something of the sort. The father-son team got a lot of support, both from the City of Nashua and from the participants; they figured a crowd of 50 attendees was a fair estimate for the first event. Instead, they saw 300. During a group jam, which organizers call “New Hampshire Woodstock,” 153 people played “This Land is Your Land” simultaneously, which is an unofficial world record. Michael Chung was surprised to find so many Granite State ukulele players. The Southern New Hampshire Ukulele Group, which boasts more than 200 members, organizes the 2015 event, but it’s just one of the many uke groups in the area. Lots of stage performers have local roots, including MB Padfield (based in Manchester, who plays at 11 a.m.), Ukestra (based in Nashua, playing at 11:30 a.m.), Frets Halligan (who has started many community ukulele groups in Maine, playing at 12:30 p.m.), The Kukuleles (which originated in Milford Attend the third annual New Hampshire Ukulele Picnic

at the ukulele school, Ukulele Revolution, playing at 1 p.m.), The Ben Chung Trio (which contains father-son team and vocalist Corinne Bernsten, playing at 1:30 p.m.), the Songwriters of New Hampshire Group (SONG, playing at 2 p.m.), Jeff Bellin (based in Boston, playing at 2:30 p.m.) and SNHUG (playing at 3 p.m.). Pinkham said she’d like to see even more ukesters this year; event programs will contain not only the day’s happenings, but also sheets of ukulele music with songs like “We Will Rock You” by Queen,“Black and White” by Three Dog Night, “Eight Days a Week” by The Beatles and “Shake it Off” by Taylor Swift. At 3:30 p.m., there will be an attempt to break 2013’s strumming record. Pinkham thinks it can happen; the instrument’s become very cool the past few years, with thanks to pop stars like Swift, who’s occasionally taken hers out for concerts. The economy could be to blame, too. “For some reason, ukuleles have grown in popularity the past several years. Last time they were this popular was during the Great Depression,” Pinkham said. Seven top-of-the-line ukuleles will be raffled off, and workshops for experienced and beginner players happen between concerts. (Some, like “Two Chord Songs for All Ages” taught by Amy Conley, have loaner ukes available.) Net proceeds from the picnic raffle will go to the Ukulele Kids Club, a 501(c) (3) national organization dedicated to helping sick children by donating ukuleles to music therapy programs at hospitals nationwide. UKC founder Corey Bergman, based in Miami, started the nonprofit a couple years ago, and The Elliot Hospital was one of its first ukulele recipients. He thinks the instrument is perfect for music therapy for the same reason Pinkham likes it. “[A] ukulele is very small. It has four strings, and it’s the easiest instrument to learn. A 6-year-old can learn four to five chords in about five minutes,” Bergman said via phone. “When kids are hooked up to an IV tube, a ukulele is such an easy, sweet instrument. We deliver them ourselves, and they’re beautiful.”

Whether you grow up and move across the country or just a couple towns over, it’s hard to forget your home town. From Thursday, Aug. 13, through Sunday, Aug. 16, families and friends from Hudson and beyond will come together for Hudson’s annual Old Home Days, a four-day celebration featuring a carnival, contests, live entertainment and maybe a trip or two down memory lane. “People look forward to it every year,” Brenda Collins, vice president of the Old Home Days committee, said. “If there’s a person from high school or someone you knew way back when, you know you’ll always run into them at Old Home Days.” There will be food, vendors, a petting zoo, pony rides, visits from the Freddy the Fire Truck, laser tag, live music and carnival rides on all four days, with wristband specials for the rides on Thursday and Sunday. Get a jump on Halloween and go “trick-or-treating” on Thursday; kids can make the rounds collecting candy from all the vendors, then join in the “Parade of Horribles” with prizes awarded for the best costumes. There will also be a balloon twister, hula hoop contest and all-ages karaoke. On Friday, Laura from The Morning Buzz will broadcast live from Old Home Days with Rock 101. There will be hot air balloon rides; if you prefer to keep your feet on the ground, you can participate in the Zack Tompkins 5K Run/Walk. Auditions for the third annual singing competition, “Are You the Voice of Old Home Days?,” will be on Friday and Saturday, with the finale and awards on Sunday. The top three winners will be named in three age categories: 9 to 15, 16 to 20, and 21 and older. Cash prizes include $200 for first, $50 for second and $25 for third place. “The singing competition is a huge success,” Collins said. “There are so many talented peo-

ple in our community, and it’s amazing to hear some of the voices.” There will be a touch-a-truck on Saturday, as well as an activity tent with free kids’ games. Local groups Al Lima’s Karate Studio, Shane’s Anti-Bullying Dance Group and Showcase Performing Arts Center will do live, back-toback demonstrations. Make sure you save room for the pie eating contest, open to kids and adults, with prizes awarded in each age group. A fireworks show will close out the night. There will be live music each day by local artists including Ripcord on Thursday, Figure 8 on Friday, Sonic Boomers and The Boys of Rockingham on Saturday and Matt Richardson on Sunday to wrap up Old Home Days. Collins said the planning committee has worked to make most of the event free, but the activities that do cost benefit the Hudson community in some way. “That’s what an old home day should be about,” she said. “People can come and have a good time with a lot of free stuff, but the monies people do spend stay and help and perpetuate the community.”

If you’d like to celebrate your French heritage, learn about French culture or just do something different with the family, join the Franco-American Centre on Sunday, Aug. 16, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., at Saint Anselm College for a family fun day in the spirit of National Acadian Day (Aug. 15). There will be Acadian-related activities and entertainment for all ages. National Acadian Day celebrates the heritage and culture of Acadians, descendants of 17th-century French colonists who settled in eastern Canada. “People can experience Acadian culture in a variety of forms while they are [at the event],” John Tousignant, executive director of the center, said. “And it’s an event primarily in English, so people with no French skills will still feel comfortable and can enjoy the day.” For kids, there will be a coloring station, face painting, crafts like creating a family tree and games like a French word scavenger hunt. They can also learn French songs with a songbook to take home. An FAC member will perform authentic Acadian music and teach people the traditional Acadian dances. If you aren’t much of a dancer, you can try your hand at a French sport in the Pétanque tournament; you may know it better as bocce ball. The rules are easy to learn, and anyone can play, regardless of age, size or athletic skill. “We wanted to provide something all generations could get excited about,” Tousignant said. “The tournament is something where grandparents and grandchildren can work together and share an aspect of their heritage.” Families are encouraged to bring their own picnic lunch to enjoy on the quad, but ice cream will be available for purchase. There will be raffles for prizes from local businesses, such as family passes to the SEE Science Center, as well as the opening of a raffle for a week-long stay at a con• MULTIPLE LANGUAGES Courses in Chinese, French, German, Spanish, and Italian in six, eight, or ten week sessions.

Hard to kill

Daylilies are good for beginners

Summer Sale

By Henry Homeyer

listings@hippopress.com

Daylilies are wonderful. All beginning gardeners should have several clumps — you essentially can’t kill them. Like many plants, they prefer good rich soil and full sun, but some varieties will survive and thrive most anywhere. They come in a wide range of clothing . jewelry . accessories . shoes colors. They have been bred and grown for centuries and by now there are tens of thousands of named varieties. Now is the time when many daylilies are in their prime. I like to buy flowers in bloom as that way I can better choose the ones that speak to me. So I recently drove to Olallie Daylily Farm in South Newfane, Vermont. Chris Darrow, the owner, told me that he has grown at least 2,100 kinds of daylilies, some named varieties, others just bearing numbers from crosses he performed. The farm has about 5 acres of daylilies open to the public, and more daylilies in the 9 acres of field nearby. Chris Darrow’s grandfather, Dr. George BeaconJewelersNH.com BeaconJewelersNH.com Darrow, was an internationally known daylily 1356 Elm Street, 1356 Elm Street, breeder, starting in the late 1950s after retirManchester ing from the USDA. For more than 20 years Manchester 603-935-8613 101459 daylilies were his passion. Chris inherited 603-935-8613 hundreds of varieties from him and has been Local Favo breeding them himself for over 20 years. r Your I was interested to learn from Chris that Hippo Best of 2015 daylilies are easy to breed. Each flower is Rea ders Picks open for just one day and most are never pollinated.

AmericanK9Country.com | 336 Route 101, Amherst, NH 03031 | 672 8448 100856 Plants that are self-pollinated will not usually produce offspring that are identical to the parent. They may, in fact, have a trait that is emphasized — a tall one bred to itself may produce offspring that are even taller, for example. This allows breeders to develop unique varieties in several generations.

raploid, you will not get viable seed. If you know the name, you can go online and look it up at the website of the American Hemerocallis Society (daylilies.org). There you can learn if yours is a diploid or a tetraploid. The website has a searchable database of nearly 80,000 daylilies. If you want to get seeds, do not snap off the spent flower after it has bloomed. Wait until the green seed pod ripens — it will typically take 40 to 60 days, at which time it will break open. Your job is to pick the pod a little before that happens. If you can squeeze a seed pod and it opens and has dark-colored seeds, it is time to pick it. Chris puts the seed pods from a particular cross into a paper bag. Obviously you will need some sort of numbering and recording system, and a way to identify the parents of the cross. Daylily seeds need to be cold stratified before planting. This is, essentially, mimicking a winter. Most breeders put seeds in a refrigerator for a minimum of four to six weeks. Chris Darrow wraps his seeds in moist paper towels for a month starting in February. To germinate the seeds, Chris Darrow plants them in 32-cell flats in a 60-40 mix of Pro-Mix starting medium and Moo-Doo brand composted cow manure. He puts the seed trays in an unheated greenhouse and lets them warm up slowly. He told me that daylilies are sporadic germinators — seeds might start growing in a week or in a month. It takes 3 years for most daylilies to go from seed to blossom. If you want to learn more about daylilies, you might want to join the American Hemerocallis Society for $25 a year. You’ll get four issues of their magazine and connect with other daylily fans. If you develop a daylily that you think is special, you can register the name with the American Hemerocallis Society for $20, online or by mail. Chris’ grandfather lived to be 94 years old. Chris thinks part of Dr. George Darrow’s longevity was his desire to live another year to see what new daylily hybrids blossomed and what they looked like. Maybe that will work for me. I started crossing daylilies last week! Henry Homeyer is a gardening consultant and author. His website is Gardening-Guy. com.

IN/OUT TREASURE HUNT

Dear Donna,

My husband and I bought this trunk about 45 years ago, from a lady who was almost 90. It had been in her family as long as she could remember. It is in good shape. The two front leather straps are missing. There is nothing much outstanding about it, with perhaps one exception. The inside of the chest is lined with newspaper covering the March 5, 1877, inauguration of Rutherford B. Hayes. The newspaper is in fair condition and readable. My question is, how much value would you put on the trunk, and does the paper add to its value? Cyndy

Dear Cyndy, Your trunk (from the Victorian-era late 1800s) is a pretty common item. Remember, trunks were like the first form of suitcases for traveling, so there are many around, even today. When I was younger, we used to use one as a coffee table, and I believe some among this generation use them for the same reason. Steamer trunks such as yours were in an array of sizes. The outside appearances could be different as well, with tin, leather or metal (like yours). Inside some had trays for two-layer storage, The linings had paper or advertisements for the company that made them or for another product from that period of time.

Because there were so many and made so well, you can find them easily; many were tucked away in an attic or basement. Usually they have gone through many generations and have been used for several purposes, so they can show a lot of wear on the outside. But still, just as yours does, they have a charm and history. The value on them is in the $50 to $100 range to a person who might collect or use them. The ones with the more unusual size, condition and inside design tend to bring more money.

IN/OUT CAR TALK

When engine is shot, do you go with remanufactured or rebuilt? Dear Car Talk: I recently inherited the car I spent my childhood washing. It’s a ‘94 Ford Explorer with the tow package. I know you’re going to say that Explorers have problems, but By Ray Magliozzi I really love this car ... even though it has no air bags. It won’t be my commuter car; it will get used when I climb the 14,000-foot peaks out here in Colorado. The head gasket is blown, even though the engine has only 65,000 miles on it. I was leaning toward having a Jasper remanufactured engine put in. However, on your radio show, I recently heard you recommend that a caller have her engine rebuilt instead. Which is the best option for me? — Brandon Yeah, I wouldn’t worry about the lack of air bags. When you careen off one of those 14,000-foot mountains, they won’t help you anyway. If you’re planning to keep the car for a long time, then I think a remanufactured engine always is the best option, if you can get one. There are factories that do nothing but remanufacture engines, and they have the machinery and expertise to do it very well. That means the tolerances (the spac-

es between the things that really matter) are likely to be more accurate, which produces better results and fewer problems later on. If you have a car that’s so old, or so rare, that a remanufactured engine is not an option, then you need to decide between having a local shop rebuild it for you and buying a new one (if you can even get it). But your Explorer was common enough that Jasper and other companies can make a good business out of remanufacturing those engines and selling them. So that’s exactly what I’d get. In fact, we’ve bought dozens of remanufactured engines from Jasper over the years, and I remember only one of them that caused us any trouble. And we called them up and they said, “Oops, sorry, we’ll send you another engine.” Plus I think they come with a three-year, 100,000mile warranty that includes labor. Dear Car Talk: I have a 2007 Honda Civic. For several years, I have been experiencing an intermittent problem. When I am stopped at a stoplight or stop sign, my car’s engine unexpectedly revs up. If I put it in neutral or park, it subsides. It happens only occasionally, sometimes months apart. I have reported this to Honda on two occasions, and have

brought it in for a testing procedure. Both test sequences came up with nothing. I don’t know what to do. I am nervous about driving the car long distances. I know that what I am experiencing is real. What should I do? What is wrong with my car? I cannot in good conscience sell it privately. — Howard No, you can’t, Howard. So the time-honored solution, then, is to trade it in! But before you go to that extreme, I’ll give you a few things to check. Start by making sure it’s not that size 14 Buster Brown of yours. Assuming that’s not it, one possibility is that your throttle is sticking. The throttle is electronically controlled in this car, but the actual throttle plate itself sometimes can hang up if there’s dirt on it. So if you’ve been driving along and then you come to a stop, the throttle might hang up and not close completely, causing the engine to stay at, say, 2,000 rpm, rather than returning to idle speed right away. The other likely scenario is that the problem is emissions-related and you have a bad sensor of some kind. For instance, if an oxygen sensor incorrectly senses that your fuel-air mixture is too rich (too much fuel), it will signal the computer to send in more air, which would cause the engine to run faster.

Similarly, if a coolant temperature sensor senses that the engine is cold, it will signal for more fuel, thinking the engine is in warmup mode and needs to idle faster. Most of the time, an abnormal reading from a sensor will trigger your Check Engine light. You don’t say whether the light has ever come on. If it does come on, it will “store” a code for perhaps as long as a few weeks so that your mechanic can scan the engine with his scan tool and see which sensor is reporting a reading that’s out of range. You say you went to your dealer twice, and they “tested” the car. I’m assuming they scanned it and found nothing. But it may be that you waited too long and the Check Engine code had cleared itself. Or that the problem occurs so infrequently that the computer doesn’t have enough data to show a pending code. So, my suggestion is, next time this happens, especially if the check engine light comes on, go right to the dealer within a day or two, and have him scan it. If nothing turns up on the scan, have him clean the throttle. And if you have 150,000 miles on this car, I probably would replace the oxygen sensor, too, since you likely need one anyway. That could very well be the source of the problem. Visit Cartalk.com.

FOOD Forging The Foundry

New restaurant opens in Manchester millyard By Allie Ginwala

News from the local food scene

aginwala@hippopress.com

By Allie Ginwala

Brick walls, wooden support beams and windows overlooking the Merrimack River — the heritage of the millyard has clearly influenced the industrial-themed dining room inside The Foundry, Commercial Street’s newest restaurant. Owned by local businessman, inventor and entrepreneur Dean Kamen, the highly anticipated Foundry brings life back to the space that once housed Jillian’s Billiards and, more recently, World Sports Grille. “I think the river possesses the heart and soul of Manchester ... so I think people gravitate toward the river and the millyard,” Nate Carney, general manager, said of the building that is noted by many as a unique piece of the Queen City. “The name of this building is actually Gateway, so, I mean, that in itself kind of says everything.” The brick walls of The Foundry feature pictures from the Manchester Historic Association of men working with iron and wood, portraying that not only the overall aesthetic of the restaurant but also its conceptual roots are bound to and inspired by the city’s heritage. “I think it would be impossible to take that feel away from this, and I don’t know why you’d ever want to,” Carney said. On a recent Thursday afternoon, the dining room and bar were a flurry of commotion as workers put the final touches on the fixtures and seating. In the kitchen, Executive Chef Matt Provencher spoke with the health department about the ins and outs of sous vide cooking, the French term for cooking in a vacuum, a process that will be featured in multiple dishes on the menu. “There’s definitely some French-Canadian touches on the menu ... and even the French style of cooking,” Provencher said. He’s particularly excited about the crabstuffed trout, foie gras and duck dishes, part of a menu that was created with ingredients sourced from over 30 farms. “That’s everything from cheeses, dairy, milk, cream, ribeyes, chickens, produce, honey, maple syrup,” he said. “Most of the farms I’ve actually been to, my family’s been to. … We wanted to see that if it’s a hog farm, they’re raising the hogs properly, that they’re not in little pens [but] that they’re

• Fresh, local fish: With the goal of supporting local fishermen and giving consumers the freshest possible catch, New Hampshire Community Seafood has opened signups for the next six-week membership session of its Community Supported Fishery. “The connection between fishermen and consumers benefits everyone, with consumers getting a really high quality fish they can be excited about eating, and they know they are also supporting fishermen in our local fleet, who are struggling with the increasingly strict fishing regulations but are working hard to stay in business,” Andrea Tomlinson, manager of New Hampshire Community Seafood, said in a press release. CSF members get their share (½-pound, 1-pound or 2-pound shares, plus weekly “add ons”) once a week at one of the 18 pickup locations throughout the state and northern Massachusetts, which include Brookford Farm in Canterbury, Cole Gardens in Concord, the Manchester Farmers Market and First Baptist Church in Nashua. The fish varies from week to week and in the past has included monkfish, haddock, flounder, dogfish, yellowtail and hake. To learn more or sign up, visit nhcommunityseafood.com. • Spirits to support troops: For the fifth year, the New Hampshire Liquor Commission partnered with Fabrizia Spirits and Southern Wine & Spirits to raise funds for Homes for Our Troops, a nonprofit organization that builds adaptive homes for veterans with life-altering injuries. According to the press release, this year’s donation of $10,761 sets a record high, almost doubling last year’s amount. “The NH Liquor Commission is honored to partner with Fabrizia Spirits and Southern Wine & Spirits in raising money that will greatly improve the lives of New Hampshire veterans in need of assistance,” NHLC Chairman Joseph W. Mollica said in the press release. “This donation wouldn’t be possible without the support of our NH Liquor & Wine Outlet sales associates and customers who rallied around this worthy cause.” The money will be earmarked for future disabled New Hampshire veterans. This year’s donation brings the five-year total raised to more than $30,000. • Festival fun: “Live Free and Wine” with over 15 New Hampshire wineries and 44

That they’re happy hogs.” In creating a farm-to-table menu with as many local ingredients as possible, Provencher said it’s very important to him to keep the taste of each dish as it should be — pure and simple. “I tell the cooks there’s three [or] four things on a plate and that ... potatoes should taste like a potato … a carrot should taste like a carrot,” he said. “I don’t like the idea of messing with food. If we’re going to buy really good product from a local farmer, it should taste like that. … [It should] taste pure and simple.” The Foundry is the largest certified local restaurant in the state, Carney said, but it still embodies a casual feel that he hopes will offer an inviting and comfortable atmosphere. “We want it to be the local place people want to go,” Carney said. “We’re not trying to be high-end; we want it to be approachable,” Provencher agreed. “People can come in jeans and a nice shirt and be comfortable and not feel like they’re breaking the bank.” The Foundry includes deck seating with fire elements and overstuffed furniture, a dining room and bar seating and a function room that covers a total of 13,000 square feet, which they hope will bridge the two crowds that frequent downtown Manchester — those looking for an elegant locally

sourced dinner and those who want appetizers and a drink after work. “We’d love to have it be a spot for people to come after work … get a beer and some finger food and hang out in a group,” Carney said. “[We have] 20 beers and everything but two of them are from New Hampshire, Maine, Vermont or Massachusetts so it’s a very New England tap.” The Foundry also has a signature cocktail list and a wide selection of bourbon and whiskey. This new restaurant owned by Dean Kamen has been the buzz around Manchester; Carney experienced it firsthand while out to dinner recently, overhearing other diners talking not only about The Foundry, but also about him. (In one instance, he leaned over and let the diners know who he was, inviting them to stop by for a meal sometime). He attributed the high level of anticipation to the public’s excitement for something different in a beloved location. “I think people are excited to see what we’ve done with the space in here because I think it has been a staple space in Manchester for a long time,” he said. “I think they expect something different knowing Matt, maybe knowing myself a little bit. I think people are excited about that fact that it is certainly going to be different and unique to the area.”

After taking a hiatus last year, the New England Peach Festival returns on Saturday, Aug. 15, with piles of jams, jellies, shortbread, sundaes and pies all featuring the juicy late-summer fruit. “We do everything peachy,” festival cocoordinator Michael Therrien said in a phone interview. “It’s a very versatile fruit, and we’re from New England so we’re very frugal and we don’t throw anything away.” The event is being held for the first time this year on the Milford Community House lawn. Guests are invited to enjoy the fruit in many forms, from jams and jellies to pies and Jake’s Old Fashioned Ice Cream topped with peach sauce. There’s also a hot dog lunch and live music and games, face-painting and peachy crafts for the children. The festival started over a decade ago, when the parishioners of the Church of Our Saviour in Milford were looking for a fundraiser that would stand out in the community. Since strawberry, blueberry and apple festivals were already being held, a peach-themed event seemed perfect. “We saw there was a lack of involvement of peaches that were grown locally and we wanted a late summertime event and that is the time that peaches are ready,” Therrien said. Perhaps the biggest highlight of the festival is the beloved peach pies, made by a group of women and men in the church kitchen, following the same recipe used every year since the first festival was held. The Thursday before the festival, the group will get together to make the crusts and return the next day to cut the peaches and assemble the pies. “We’re aiming for about 80 to 90 pies this year,” festival co-chairperson Lisa Anderson said. She’s helped organize the festival for six years, with some of her biggest duties right now

including peach procurement, arranging the venue setup and heading up the jam-making process. On the first Saturday in August, the jammakers gathered in the church kitchen and spent four hours turning 125 pounds of peaches into 126 jars of jam. And that’s just the tip of the peach-covered iceberg; Anderson said they’ll probably use another 340 pounds of peaches to make the pies and shortbread. Sourcing the pounds of peaches changes from year to year, Therrien said, mostly depending on availability. This year, the first round came from Shaw’s Supermarket. “It all depends on the year and how bountiful the crop is,” he said. “Sometimes we have to go through multiple sources.” With the first crop only covering the jammaking, Therrien reached out to local farms and other sources once more for the next batch of baked-good-bound peaches. “I spend a lot of time on the day of the festival peeling peaches” to top sundaes and shortbread, Anderson said. “We peel those peaches that day [so] they’re fresh.” All of the day’s activities take place just outside of the Milford Oval. “We were looking at all possible locations, nonprofit and for-profit, within the town and we realized we had this jewel almost right downtown in the Oval that hosts a lot of events and [thought] we’ll give this a try and see how it works for us,” Therrien said. 11th annual New England Peach Festival When: Saturday, Aug. 15, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Where: Milford Community House lawn, corner of Elm and Union streets (just outside the Milford Oval) Cost: Free admission. Peach goods priced per item. Proceeds benefit Bridges Domestic & Sexual Violence Support and Greater Nashua Habitat for Humanity. See: coosmilford.org

The community is invited to pig out on roast pork, hamburgers, hot dogs, baked beans, cole slaw, potato salad and other seasonal favorites at Pork Fest, happening this year on Sunday, Aug. 16, at Merrill Park in Concord. The event began six years ago as a way to bring back the community tradition of getting together to enjoy food and fellowship while also raising money for Grace Episcopal Church’s then brand-new TakeA-Tote program that brings food to local schools to make sure children have meals for the weekend. “People who are longtime members remember when there were more community cookouts and block parties and wanted to do [something] to build community in Concord,” Rev. Jason Wells said in a phone interview. The church partnered with Quality Cash Market just up the road, which continues to donate roast pork butts for the festival, while When: Sunday, Aug. 16, from noon to 2:30 p.m. Where: Grace Episcopal Church/Merrill Park, Eastman Street, Concord Cost: Free admission; donations welcome.

the church members divvy up the duties for the other items on the menu. Wells said that the church members do the grilling, serve the food and make most of the dishes at home to bring in and serve to the hundreds of guests who attend, the majority of whom are community members not involved with the congregation. The event is held rain or shine; Wells said they’re hoping to see 500 visitors this year. “Grace [Episcopal] Church is one of the smaller [churches] in Concord. On a Sunday morning we have about 70 people here,” Wells said. “For an event like this in the summertime, our congregation are almost all volunteering — they are not coming in and eating.” The festival is held every year at Merrill Park, right across the street from the church. Guests can enjoy the basketball courts and the festival’s first touch-a-truck event with a Concord police cruiser, fire truck and UPS truck. Raffles, a silent auction, a bounce house, a dance exhibition and performance by balladeer Jim Barnes will also be featured. “One of the nice things about the location is that there is a park and a playground right there so there’s already a built-in something to do,” Wells said. Admission to the festival and the food is free, Wells said. Proceeds from the raffle, silent auction and donation basket will go toward the Take-A-Tote Program.

Syrus Namazi never envisioned owning a restaurant, but for the past 26 years has dedicated himself to serving homemade pizzas, calzones, desserts and more at Amore Pizza (314 South Broadway, Childs Plaza, Route 28, Salem, 894-4344, amorepizzanh.com). His path to Amore was unconventional — he came to the U.S. to earn a degree in hospital administration, in the hope of returning to Shiraz, Iran, to manage a hospital built by his grandfather and managed by his father. But once he completed his bachelor’s and master’s degrees, the Iranian Revolution had begun and Namazi remained in New England. His first step into the restaurant industry Featuring came when he partnered with a friend who had always wanted to open a pizza shop. Four years later, Namazi opened Amore Pizza in Salem, a family-run business where he works with his wife and son.

Whether they’re in your backyard, at the farmers market or from your CSA, local tomatoes are here! There are so many kinds of tomatoes that it’s hard to pick a favorite — hard, but not impossible. My choice is cherry tomatoes. There’s something about these bite-sized veggies (fruits?) that make me smile. They’re sweet and never last long in my garden because my 2-year-old helps herself. There are different varieties of cherry tomatoes and, without a doubt, sun gold are the best.

Do yourself a favor and take advantage of the bounty of tomatoes at your fingertips here in New Hampshire. Eat them solo, toss them in salads, make a pasta dish or add them to pizza. The possibilities are endless, so don’t be surprised if you end up eating tomatoes every night. — Allison Willson Dudas Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Mix tomatoes, pesto and chicken in a medium bowl.

A whole new world

Your Specialty Store For Authentic German Sourdough Breads, Soft Pretzels, Crusty Rolls, Pastries & Seasonal Specialties!

Wine has always been a part of our family gatherings and serves as a way to bring people together. You have family members who drink red, others who drink white, and some whom I call equal opportunity drinkers. There is conversation around “what did you bring?” or “what are you drinking today?” Since I am somewhat new to the world of wine, only having been really interested in it since 2009, I like to reflect on all of the things this new world has brought me, including this column. So in honor of that, here is my list of things that happen when you’re a wine enthusiast. You always get wine-related gifts. It’s not hard to shop for me on my birthday or at Christmas if you can find the wine aisle in any store. But in addition to bottles of wine, I now have a very cool collection of wine art, glasses, stoppers, other accessories and even a wine cabinet to keep a lot of it in. I appreciate all of it! I like when someone takes the time to find something unique or chooses a bottle of wine I have never heard of before, as it helps me try something new. I also enjoy when friends travel and bring me back wine from their trips. You are the go-to person for wine recommendations. It is quite flattering when people ask me for wine advice. While I am by no means an expert, I have tried a lot of wines and do my best to give good advice. I know what I like and the price point I usually use, so I work from there. The wine aisle is my favorite place in the supermarket to hang out, and I always joke that if you lose me, that is the first place to look.

This is because I like taking in all of the different options. On several occasions, I have received texts and messages asking for recommendations, whether it be from someone bringing a bottle to a party or purchasing a gift for someone else. Your social media is filled with winerelated items. I follow several wine pages and occasionally feel the need to share them with my social media community. But what I like even more is that my friends think of me when they see a wine-related post and share it with me. It’s not unheard of for more than one person to share the same post, and I appreciate the thought. You probably know where most wineries are in the state, have been to them and can cite the owners’ names. It’s not rare for me to be having a conversation with someone that is not wine-related but quickly becomes so when I say, “Oh, there is a winery there in [insert town/city name]” sometimes followed by “yes, I have been there” and “I know the owner.” While I still haven’t made it to every winery in the state, it is a goal of mine. Writing this column has given me motivation to do so, and I have met a lot of great people along the way, including several New Hampshire winemakers and business owners. I love hearing their stories about how they came to be interested in wine and decided to open their own wineries. Even your wardrobe has wine-related items in it. Well, technically my gym-related wardrobe, because I have two tank tops I am particularly fond of, including one that reads “will run for wine.” Too bad most events serve beer at the end of the race instead of wine.

During the 1990s, this L.A. act’s initial darkwave/industrial incarnation posed a threat to Marilyn Manson, even if it had more pop-metal moments than the average goth would have tolerated at the time (songs like “Stitches” had a little too much Creed in their vibe, while we’re at it). Around 1998, the band chose to keep to the rear of the rap-metal fusion movement, although later, ironically, its guitar corps of Amir Derakh and Ryan Shuck left for Chester Bennington’s Dead by Sunrise project. This, if you want the math, basically leaves present-day Orgy with singer Jay Gordon as the sole originating band member. The five-song EP under the microscope here teases a forthcoming album and an unforgivably poppy makeover — some of the parts are right out of One Direction’s playbook. There’s still darkwave beat-age to the mix, and maybe the bubblegummers will like it — a gamble, no doubt, as Gordon and his new cohorts try to resuscitate an era owned not by them so much as by Limp Bizkit and whatnot. Ya never know, right? C — Eric W. Saeger

From the land of courteous hayloftindie bliss comes an upfitted version of same from this Toronto trio, which took its sweet time getting out this fifth LP after cranking out four of them between 2009 and 2011. This opens with the title track’s relatively powerful fusion of New Order-ish danceability and Animal Collective-type indie-wetworks, an unarguably hooky tune that would make basically anyone stick around for more. Unless you’re keen on time-traveling back to the era when Pitchfork wouldn’t shut up about the “indispensable” Arts & Crafts Records stable, though, you’ll want to skip the remainder. Lots of Versus-level college-rock oatmeal with droopy-dog singalongs characterized by the drearily familiar mating call of the 2008 hipster: five or six cube-droid friends of the band sloppily kludging their way through one-off vocal sessions recorded after getting slightly tipsy on $15 bottles of “pinot gridge.” Gack, I thought this worthless, obedient twee-chant junk was gone forever. What, you miss that stuff? Come on. You’d better get on the bus, because the current generation’s children are going to make Mad Max look like the Brady Bunch. C — Eric W. Saeger

• Some folks would argue that Wu Tang alumnus Method Man shot to stardom upon being the only rapper to guest on Biggie’s debut LP in 1994. Other folks would say it happened when he started getting quirky parts in network TV shows like Oz. Me, I’d say it was when he got busted by the IRS, because that’s totally “gangsta.” The title track on his new album The Meth Lab features guests Hanz On and Streetlife, a bass-heavy piano beat and cartoon toughman flows surprisingly inspired by Breaking Bad in place of tried and true standards New Jack City and Dead Presidents, the twin Cliffs Notes studies that have helped suburban Marketing 101 rappers appear gangsta since 1989. Progress marches on! • Speaking of microwaved 1990s nonsense, nu-metal welterweights Disturbed have reformed to make a few bucks, um, I mean, release a new album! If you’re old, you remember when Disturbed was widely considered sort of cool, or at least a good substitute for heavy music; they’re like White Zombie but with the personality of a slice of freshly buttered white toast. So whatever, they stopped inflicting their nonsense on my ears in 2011, to go off in different directions, but their singer David Draiman gave up on his industrial band, Device, after one album, and now they’re back with a new Disturbed album called Immortalized. One of the songs is called “The Vengeful Ones,” which I’m going to listen to now. Yes, I took Dramamine and guzzled some Pepto Bismol just in case, so let’s do this thang. OK, the first riff starts out cool, but then a second guitar comes in and it sucks. Now the singer is trying to sound like Buck Satan from Ministry, but I just want to click something, anything to get me off this page. Uh oh, now the screen in the video is filled with the word “OBEY” in spooky-time font. Man, was nu-metal completely hopeless or what, you guys? • Who’s this person here, this Noah Gundersen? Hmm, blah de blah, he does indie folk, it looks like. Started the band The Courage, then gave up, probably for very good reasons. Had songs that were played on Sons of Anarchy and The Vampire Diaries. I would have just joined the priesthood at that point. Carry the Ghost is the name of his new album; let’s go abuse our aesthetic senses with this dreck. All right, this isn’t monstrously awful, it’s good, mellow Americana, like Amos Lee but with a focus on piano — in other words like Peter Bradley Adams, except with some skronky Wilco guitar parts. I do not hate this human named Noah Gunderson, because he makes good music. • OK, OK, I thought I could sneak out of the room without mentioning it, but yes, miniskirted Austin Powers Fembot Carly Rae Jepsen has a new album titled E·MO·TION (see what she did there, I think?). She’s been sued a few times because she doesn’t have an original thought in her metallic android head, but let’s go listen to the title track and see if ... OK, it rips off J-Lo. But she’s kind of cute; does that count? — Eric W. Saeger

The big screen has hit Warner. Well, a 10-foot by 10-foot one made from from recycled billboard vinyl material, anyway — since MainStreet Warner finished building the Jim Mitchell Community Park stage last year, the space, located right behind MainStreet BookEnds, has seen a lot of cultural activity. Musical concerts happen every week, and farmers markets every Tuesday, but brand new on the agenda: film. In addition to its environment-conscious movie series — which kicked off July 28 with Queen of the Sun: What are the Bees Telling Us? — the stage will host the organization’s first MainStreet Warner Music, Film and Comedy Festival Saturday, Aug. 15. The summer programming has been very “grassroots,” said Ben Dobrowski, who organizes stage events for MainStreet Warner. “It’s kind of been, get the event scheduled and see what happens. This isn’t my fulltime job; I’m unpaid. It’s all volunteerism on my part, and that’s the same with everyone involved with the board, until we can come up with some more funding,” he said. “But so far it’s been a great summer. We’ve had people come out for all the concerts we’ve had.” And it’s been a very full summer, compared to those in recent years. “This is the first year any regular events have been happening there since the bookstore hosted Friday Nights in Warner,” Dobrowski said. That was more than 10 years ago, before Jim Mitchell, after whom the park is named, died. Brother of bookstore owner Katharine Nevins, he spearheaded a lot of the downtown Warner activity (and coined the phrase MainStreet Warner regularly quotes, “Something wonderful is happening in Warner.”) “We’re basically picking up where he left off, whether it be a concert or a reading,” Dobrowski said. “When there’s something going on on Friday or Saturday, it gives people a reason to stay in town or come to town.” This is a summer of firsts; in addition to its being the first summer with regular programming, it’s also the summer with regular outdoor films. The series, with its theme of Films in Warner Where: Jim Mitchell Community Park, 16 E. Main St., Warner MainStreet Warner Music, Film and Comedy Festival: Saturday, Aug. 15, 4 to 10 p.m. Outdoor Documentary Film Series: Dirt! The Movie is Tuesday, Aug. 25, at 7 p.m., and Genetic Roulette is Tuesday, Sept. 29, at 7 p.m. Cost: All films free; donations accepted

sustainability, fits well with the venue; MainStreet BookEnds and the park stage are solar-powered, and the plants lining the grounds are fed through a rainwater irrigation system. Next on the agenda: a community garden, which will most likely happen next year. Upcoming film showings include Dirt! The Movie on Tuesday, Aug. 25, and Genetic Roulette on Tuesday, Sept. 29. Initially, the festival this weekend was to be movie-focused, but organizers have expanded it to include a variety of art. From 4 to 8 p.m., there will be music by Delanie Pickering (of Concord) Beechwood (of Henniker) and DoBros (from Warner) and comedy by James Mullan, Paul Landwehr and Joe Mitchel. Just after, indie short films submitted by New England filmmakers will light up the recycled stage screen. “The venue is just remarkable,” said Lindsey Schust, a filmmaker whose flick, Hippie Hill Music Video, is one of the six to screen at the festival, complete with pick-up trucks, horseshoe tournaments, plaid shirts and mullet hairdos. She also says this as a community member — she lives in Andover but often visits the park to attend concerts and the weekly farmers market — and as a musician whose band, The Ragged Mountain Band, performs there Sept. 5. It’s top-of-the-line compared to the other local places they play: in town commons with gazebos that require performers to lug their own equipment. “It’s beautifully constructed,” Schust said. “And the sound, you can hear it across the street at the ice cream store.” Dobrowski hopes to get a solid turnout. “It’s basically first-come, first-served seating; there’s plenty of room and a lovely terrace amphitheater. Audience members are encouraged to bring lawn chairs, blankets,” he said. “We’re going to be making locally prepared food during [the festival] and the film series ... with prices pay-what-you-can.”

that innocent question again.) Robert is not there, as he is not there for much of the book. After Ella’s death, he turned to his daily runs and his work to smother the grief, leaving a robotic Laura, once a high-powered lawyer herself, to go through the motions of being a stay-at-home mother. When Robert does come home, we wonder why. “Whenever he returns from a trip, we pounce on him like Labradors, desperate for his stroke, for his stabilizing presence to balance our wobbly three-legged stance.” Even with the help of two grandmothers and a good preschool program, Laura is overwhelmed, some mornings finding that even making a second pot of coffee is more than she can handle. It takes a Herculean effort (and a last-minute cancellation by St. Robert) to motivate her to take the boys to the city for a car show, where, when looking wide-eyed at street people, she spots the homeless mother and bumps into a stranger’s car. It is at this point when the reader’s sympathy for Laura starts to erode. Yes, she lost a baby. Yes, it scars you forever. But haven’t you ever seen homeless people before? Apparently not: “I used to come this way to court when I was working. Were these encampments here in the underpass then? People lie on the ground, motionless in cocoons of dirty blankets. Others shuffle in no par-

ticular direction, bruised hands grasping broken shopping carts laden with clothes and bags.” Among them is a young woman we will soon know as Josie, with her underfed toddler Tyler, and as Laura stalks and then befriends her, we will learn her story, which is of course that she’s a good person who’s had some bad breaks. As their friendship progresses, Laura gains some much-needed strength while helping a friend she has to hide from her husband. This leads to an interesting moral question, a means-versus-ends quandary of whether you are truly doing good if you engage in deceit. But Shelter Us is a surface novel and grapples only with day-to-day problems, not existential questions that might give it more heft. It moves too slowly in the first half and too quickly in the second, leaping from micro-crisis to micro-crisis in a way that is jarring, given the early pace of the book, when Diamond, like a doting mother, offers way too many play-by-plays of what children are doing. (Note: only grandmothers truly care about the minutia of a child’s day.) There’s also another side plot of Laura’s estranged father, who shows up in the midst of all this, and a heart-rending story of her mother’s death that seems to have nothing to do with anything going on now (except for a poignant line about Laura’s mother and daughter being buried in the same place). Diamond is a graceful writer, and her skill rescues a story that, much like its protagonist, nods off and snores. Unfortunately, despite the occasional detour, from the beginning, Laura’s destination is always known, and the end brings not satisfaction but a childish complaint: What took us so long? C — Jennifer Graham

CHILDREN’S ROOM A weekly recommendation from the Concord Public Library

by Erik Larson

Shelter Us, by Laura Nicole Diamond (Spark Point Studio, 253 pages) For new parents, it is a pivotal moment: the first time a newborn sleeps through the night. Laura Shaw’s uninterrupted rest, however, came at a terrible cost. She awoke to find her 6-week-old daughter dead in her crib, apparently suffocated by a sheet that had come loose. The loss of their second child plunges Laura and her husband, Robert, into two separate rivers of anguish even as they have another son soon after the loss of Ella. Their path toward wholeness, or something resembling it, is the focus of Shelter Us, a debut novel by civil-rights lawyer Laura Nicole Diamond. Too dark to be considered a beach read, too predictable to be a thriller, it is a soft, sluggish portrait of a woman, numb with grief, who happens upon a homeless mother and leaps to trade her own pain for another’s. In doing so, she defies her law-professor husband, who discouraged her from bringing a street woman into their home, and naturally, multiple deceptions ensue. Told in first person, Shelter Us introduces us to Laura at a grief group at a hospital where she, with other bereaved parents, is practicing what to say when someone asks how many children she has.

See them all perform Thursday, Aug. 13, 9 p.m., at Shaskeen Pub, 909 Elm St., Manchester. • Countdown: With her long-awaited album The Voice From Within done, Alli Beaudry performs an intimate pre-release show; the official full band release party happens next month.

Rock On Festival helps celebrate Concord’s 250th By Michael Witthaus

mwitthaus@hippopress.com

Luke and Matt Bonner are both music mavens and home state boosters. For nearly a decade, the Concord natives have hosted summer concerts to raise money for charities like the Boys & Girls Club, and the shows lure favorite acts to New Hampshire. Okkervil River, Deer Tick and Felice Brothers all played their first Granite State gigs at the Bonners’ behest. Dubbed Sneakers and Speakers, the annual event bounced around the state for a while, landing in Concord, Plymouth and a Seacoast nightclub. In 2013, the brothers formed their own nonprofit Rock On Foundation, and the next two shows happened at Portsmouth’s Redhook Brewery. This year, it’s heading home, with a new name. On Saturday, Aug. 15, in White Park, the free Rock On Fest will help celebrate Concord’s 250th anniversary. The musical lineup is an even mix of indie cool and local heroes. Headlining are buzzworthy NYC duo Cults, with Recoys and Walkmen frontman Hamilton Leithauser playing a penultimate set. Rounding out the bill are garage rock stalwarts The Tripping Souls and hometown rising stars Them In The Hive. The day-long event will include a variety of other attractions along with music. A local fiddler will play as he talks about city and state history; Granite State Roller Derby will give an exhibition; at press time, a performance from Concord Community Music School alumni was likely. Matt Bonner’s alter ego DJ Red Mamba will host a family-friendly dance party, and the day will end with fireworks. A Bonner Brothers event wouldn’t be complete without basketball — Matt plays for two-time NBA champs the San Antonio Spurs, and Luke had a career in pro and semipro ball. Thus, the all-day Midsummer Hoops Classic will happen amidst the rest of Rock On Fest, with local high school athletes playing on a court the Bonners helped restore a Rock On Fest When: Saturday, Aug. 15, 1 p.m. Where: White Park, 1 White St, Concord More: rockonfoundation.org Night Life Music, Comedy & Parties CHANCHA VIA CIRCUITO at 3S Artspace (319 Vaughan St., Portsmouth 766-3330) on Thursday, Aug. 13, 9 p.m. $18 - Argentinian producer Pedro Canale aka Chancha Via Circuito returns from a three year

few years back. After four years away, a return to the Merrimack region is fitting, particularly with the ongoing Concord 250 celebration. ‘That was kind of the icing on the cake for us,” Luke Bonner said in a recent phone interview. “We felt this was the perfect time to transition this thing back [and] make it a free festival.” Luke Bonner envisions the event as a sort of alt-rock recruiting poster for his hometown. “It’s a community giveback and celebration that hopefully attracts some younger folks back into town who used to live here,” he said. “People who maybe have never even been to Concord will come to see the bands and realize how awesome Concord is and consider moving here — that’s kind of our pipe dream.” The hope is to scale up efforts to include more than music. “We’d love to continue to increase programming in the state in terms of events like this,” Luke Bonner said. “Maybe a film or comedy angle, get into the creative side of things while focusing on athletic opportunities as well.” He sees Rock On Fest as a warm-weather version of the winter hockey tournament that happens every year at White Park. “It attracts a lot of people into town, so we

thought of something similar … separated out from the other cultural stuff going on, rather than piggybacking on another event,” he said. White Park is practically in Luke and Matt Bonner’s old backyard, a big reason why it was chosen as a venue. “There are a lot of festivals that happen nowadays so we are trying to figure out a way to differentiate,” Luke Bonner said. “It’s a historic park, and from a basketball sense, we grew up hearing our parents talk about the games at White Park; there used to be a summer league there but no one plays anymore. A few years ago we paid to help renovate the court, and there are really nice glass backboards now.” The first Sneakers and Speakers happened at the Capitol Center in 2007, but the Bonners are still pumped to make New Hampshire a tour stop for their indie rock favorites rather than a way station between Boston and Montreal. Luke Bonner is humble about their role as cultural ambassadors, however. “It has been interesting to see the bands we have booked have all returned since then — it may be totally unrelated, but it’s awesome to see that happening,” he said. “Hopefully, this will bring more of that stuff.

NEWS OF THE WEIRD BY CHUCK SHEPHERD

Doc, it hurts when I do that

Ran’dell Busch, 27, was in serious condition after being shot on July 26 near the corner of 18th Street and Emmet Street in Omaha, Nebraska. He was also shot in 2014 around the intersection of 18th and Emmet, and in 2012 was shot in a scuffle after running from the corner of 18th and Emmet.

The entrepreneurial spirit

• Failed European Business Models: (1) Grande Hotel San Calogero, the planned centerpiece of a Sicilian tourist renaissance, is still nowhere close to opening 61 years after construction began. It took 30 years to build, but then developers fought for 10 years over its management, and only later was a serious drainage deficiency discovered (repair of which Rome’s news site The Local reported in July remains unfunded). (2) Construction of the ultramodern Don Quixote airport (in Ciudad Real, Spain, about an hour from Madrid) was finished in 2006, but the $1 billion facility never opened, and in July, was sold to a Chinese investor for the equivalent of $11,000. (Bonus: Fictional character Don Quixote was, himself, noted for delusions of grandeur.) • Unclear on the Concept: Overlooked by the roundup of “state fair” foods listed in News of the Weird two weeks ago was the debut in June, at California’s San Diego County Fair, of the deep-fried Slim-Fast bar. A 200-calorie “diet bar” is breaded in pancake batter, fried, dusted with powdered sugar and drizzled with chocolate. • A woman in a suburb of Beijing filed a lawsuit against the China Dragon Garden graveyard recently over her shock to find that not only was her own name affixed to a headstone in gold lettering but about half of the 600 plots were eerily marked for prominent (and still living) people to move into. It was a marketing plan, according to cemetery workers, to convince customers of the upscale neighbors (such as basketball star Yao Ming) waiting for them in the afterlife. (China’s aging population, and Beijing’s land scarcity, have driven up prices, intensifying competition and corrupt practices, according to a Los Angeles Times dispatch.)

The continuing crisis

Texas’ highest criminal appeals court agreed on July 17, hours before Clifton Williams was to be executed, to a postponement until they could consider the significance of perhaps-faulty higher math presented to his jury in 2006. Prosecutors had claimed at his trial that the likelihood of another black man having Williams’ DNA profile was 1 in 43 sextillion (43 followed by 21 zeros, or 43 billion trillion).

101454

Texas officials have recently recalculated the FBI-developed database and concluded that it was somewhat more likely that a second black man had Williams’ profile 1 in only 40 billion trillion.

Wait, what?

(1) Jason Patterson, upset that New Zealand’s health care administration has rejected paying for gastric bypass surgery, announced in July that he will protest publicly by going on a hunger strike. “The first two to three days (will be) really hard,” he told Channel 3 News. (2) Local officials in China’s Xinjiang region informed Muslim shopkeepers and restaurateurs in May that they will henceforth be required to sell alcohol and cigarettes (even though Islam forbids their consumption). An official told Radio Free Asia that the government aims to weaken religion.

Cutting-edge science

Some owners may be petting their cats all wrong, cautioned recent research in issues of the journal Applied Animal Behaviour Science by scientists from University of Lincoln in England and the University of Wisconsin-Madison. For example, felines seem to prefer face-caressing, especially between the eyes and ears, and are especially aroused, negatively, by tail-petting, especially at the base. Cats appear to be pickier about how their owners pet them than strangers, according to a Washington Post review of one article. The Wisconsin research revealed that cats better appreciate (or are annoyed less by) music written especially for their pitch (an octave higher) and tempo (mimicking purring) than traditional classical music.

Oops!

• Careless Governing: (1) Maine enacted legislation in July to make immigrant asylum-seekers eligible for the state’s General Assistance fund contrary to Gov. Paul LePage’s aggressive promise to veto the bill. The governor had misunderstood state law and believed legislation would be regarded as vetoed if he merely failed to sign it for 10 days. LePage appeared stunned on the 11th day, according to press reports, that he’d had the veto law backward and that asylum-seekers are now eligible for benefits. (2) News reports from Georgetown, Texas, politely did not identify the councilman by name, but Mayor Pro Tem Rachael Jonrow confirmed that the man neglected to turn off his mobile microphone during a May meeting as he excused himself for a restroom break. Jonrow said she stoically ignored the men’s room sounds on the PA system until the noise from a toilet’s flushing seemed to release the councilmembers’ pent-up laughter. • Epic Clumsiness: (1) A guest at the upscale W Hotel in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, had to be rescued by firefighters in July when he fell off of one machine in the hotel’s exercise room and got his head caught in the one next to it. Rescuers arrived with torches and saws, but managed to pull and push and manipulate the man’s head free (though he had “significant” injuries). (2) A 27-year-old man, entertaining friends at his home in Colmar, France, on the country’s National Day on July 14, suffered serious injuries when he fell from his third-floor balcony while, said his friends, leaning over to spit on police officers below.
