A pilot project is underway at the state Department of Education called NG2. NG2 stands for No Grades as in no first grade, second grade, eighth grade, etc. and No Grades as in no As, Bs, Cs, Ds. It’s a logical extension of the state’s effort to move away from the century-plusold, time-based education system (180 days, students move on by age) to a system based on learning where students move upon a demonstration that they have mastered the material. There are six schools participating in this pilot including Parker-Varney Elementary School in Manchester.

Make no mistake, this is a bold move by some courageous educators.

Having Fromvery Manchester’s Original spoken with Parker-Varney Principal Amy Auto Glass Company Allen, I think it’s going well. So much so that the WMUR news team sent Close-up host Adam Sexton to the school to see what this was all about. Adam spent three hours at the school, visited classrooms, conducted interviews with teachers, parents, Superintendent Bolgen Vargas, Principal Allen and even young students about what they were experiencing. The interviews will be seen on WMUR later this fall.

Virtually everyone interviewed seemed enthusiastic about the results. While the pilot is just over a year old, Principal Allen is already seeing some jaw-dropping results including the largely absent summer learning loss. Nationally, low-income students, of which Parker-Varney has many, have experienced a loss of about two months in reading achievement upon return to school. Principal Alan says that Parker-Varney has experienced virtually no loss as a result of students’ being advanced not by age but upon learning. That might mean that a student could be at the fifth-grade level in math but, only third-grade level in reading. NG2 places students where they actually need to be, not based on how old they are.

This is not a new concept. Karate training has been doing the exact same thing for centuries. Only when a student demonstrates mastery of the requirements for a particular belt do they move to the next level. This makes total sense.

Schools like Parker-Varney are learning valuable lessons that they will share with the rest of the state and, ultimately, the nation.

Congratulations are in order to Dr. Vargas, Principal Amy Allen and her staff for taking this on this bold project. Expect visitors from around the country to start showing up in Manchester to see the future of learning at Parker-Varney Elementary in Manchester.

NEWS & NOTES Manchester primary

Following the municipal primary in Manchester on Sept. 19, the races for mayor, aldermen and school board were winnowed to just the top two candidates in each race. For the first time in the five mayoral primaries in which he has run, Mayor Ted Gatsas, a Republican, did not receive the most votes, according to WMUR. Democrat and former alderman Joyce Craig received the most with 5,812 votes (53 percent). Gatsas received 4,997 (46 percent), according to the official results on the city website. Candidates Glenn Ouellette and Joshua Dallaire received 138 and 74 votes respectively.

Democrats claimed victory with Craig’s performance in the primary, while the Gatsas campaign said they got only 4 percent fewer votes than two years ago despite turnout being down by 10 percent, according to the WMUR story. Turnout was about 10,996 votes, or about 20 percent of the voters. There are about 55,900 registered voters in the city. In the last mayoral race in 2015, Craig lost to Gatsas by just 64 votes, his narrowest victory. Gatsas ran unsuccessfully for the Republican gubernatorial nomination in 2016. City elections are nonpartisan so the top two candidates for each race are based solely on how many votes they received, not party affiliation. Election Day is Nov. 7.

Naturalization ceremony

For the first time since 2000, a naturalization ceremony was held in Representatives Hall in the Statehouse, according to the House Communications office. Eighty-one people from 37 countries became U.S. citizens on Friday, Sept. 22.

In a press release, the special event was said to have tied in with Constitution Day and Citizenship Day.

Federal drug grants

Two federal agencies are issuing more than $2 million in grants to various school districts, municipalities and other organizations in New Hampshire to aid programs related to fighting the opioid epidemic, according to a joint press release from Sens. Jeanne Shaheen and Maggie Hassan. About $1.5 million will be distributed by the Office of National Drug Control Policy to various local community partners across 12 regional centers. And the

Center for Substance Abuse Prevention will be granting nearly $800,000 to the state Department of Safety for investments in first responder training, providing essential information on treatment and recovery options and support efforts on the ground by the Bureau of Emergency Medical Services. In a press release from Manchester Community College, the school announced it will be getting $500,000 in federal grants from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services over a four-year period to bolster its drug prevention efforts. The school will be getting $92,026 the first year, followed by $129,032, $223,032 and $286,907. In the first year, $45,000 of the money will go toward training scholarships.

Keene Pumpkin Fest

The festival is on. City councilors in Keene had already given approval to organizers to put on a small-scale version of the Keene Pumpkin Festival on Oct. 29, but fears of another disturbance like the 2014 riot that put an end to the festival placed this year’s plans on hold until a tie-breaking vote was cast by Keene’s mayor Sept. 21, the AP reported. Warnings from Keene State College administrators of big parties being planned through social media led town officials to consider nixing this year’s return of the festival, which in past years has held the world record for the most jack-o’lanterns. Another event called the New Hampshire Pumpkin Festival will be held in Laconia on Oct. 13 and Oct. 14.

Equifax lawsuit

Two New Hampshire women suing credit reporting agency Equifax for its recent massive data breach are seeking class action status, the AP reported. There are numerous lawsuits representing Equifax consumers. The one filed for the New Hampshire plaintiffs is requesting a lifetime of credit monitoring and identify theft protection from a different company. The women, Jennifer Greenwald and Cynthia Robbins, say they had to pay out-of-pocket for such services as well as credit freezes and credit reports following the breach. About 143 million Americans had their personal information compromised by a hack of the Equifax databases.

Prison mail

The state Department of Corrections is allowing hand-drawn pictures to once again be mailed to prison inmates, NHPR reported.

The practice was banned in 2015 over fears that drugs such as suboxone can be smuggled in such mail. Suboxone can come in the form of sublingual strips, which can be more easily hidden in cards, behind stamps or under a layer of crayon wax or other craft materials. A recent lawsuit settlement allows for pen and pencil drawings but markers, crayons, glitter, chalk and stickers are still not allowed, according to the story.

Sexual assault app

Voters in Pittsfield defeated a teacher’s contract by just nine votes, the Concord Monitor reported. Residents voted against a similar deal in March. The average teacher in Pittsfield is earning $41,459 compared to a state average of $57,522.

CONCORD

The Oyster River Cooperative School District, which serves Durham, Lee and Madbury, has hired a Disproportionate Minority Contact Coordinator to work with the district on diversity and inclusion training, according to a press release. The move comes after two racially charged incidents happened recently between students.

Gov. Chris Sununu and past governors such as Sen. Maggie Hassan and John Lynch gathered at the Bridges Hooksett House in Concord to celebrate efforts to restore and preserve the building once Goffstown designed to serve as the governor’s mansion, the Concord Monitor reported. The house was built by former MANCHESTER governor and U.S. Sen. Styles Bridges and is used for state meetings and parties.

NH MILLENNIALS

Gov. Chris Sununu announced the formation of a Millennial Advisory Council, which will offer insight on the workforce challenges young people are facing in the Granite State and make recommendations on policies that will help them, according to a press release.

In a written statement, Sununu said the council is a “big step in the right direction” for ensuring the state remains the best place to live, work and raise a family. The state is struggling to retain and attract a young workforce as its population ages.

COMMUNITY COLLEGE SYSTEM

In response to a performance audit released in August of the financial operations of the Community College System of New Hampshire, system officials had to sit through questioning by a legislative oversight committee, NHPR reported. The audit identified 29 areas of concern in the CCSNH financial, budgetary and reporting processes, according to the story. During the hearing, community college system Chancellor Ross Gittell said they had already implemented a third of the recommendations made in the audit report. The report highlighted concerns over how severance packages, student credit transfers and vehicles are managed differently at the seven schools.

A program called Screening, Brief Intervention and Referral to Treatment, has met and exceeded its goal to screen thousands of adolescents for addiction risks during medical provider visits. The program began as a three-year, $2.5 million grant program that ended in June, but medical centers are continuing the screening practice and more clinics are adopting it.

While much of the debate over how to address the opioid epidemic seems to concern incarceration versus treatment, nearly everyone agrees that prevention, especially among youth, is an important way for the state to battle addiction.

“Addiction is a children’s disease. Most people in recovery will tell you that their substance misuse began when they were adolescents,” said Tym Rourke, the director of substance use disorders grantmaking at the New Hampshire Charitable Foundation and the chair of the Governor’s Commission on Substance Use. The program is a prevention effort designed to take place within an adolescent’s regular primary care settings.

Julie Everett Hill, the director of operations at White Mountain Community Health in Conway, said they adopted the screening practice for everyone age 12 and older annually.

“Everybody who comes in for a wellness visit or a new patient appointment is screened. It’s like another vital sign for us,” Everett Hill said.

WMCH screens for depression at the same time. Every patient fills out a short questionnaire with a dry erase marker and a nurse inputs the answers into the patient’s electronic medical record.

The first question is “In the past year, how many times have you used alcohol, tobacco or marijuana?” According to Everett Hill, patients can answer “Never,” “Once or twice,” “Monthly,” or “Weekly or more.”

If they answer “Never,” there are no followup questions. But if their answers reflect possible risk factors, they are asked if they’ve tried prescription drugs that were not theirs or illegal drugs like cocaine or ecstasy or spice and so on.

A medical provider will review the answers before sitting down with the patient and, depending on the risk factors demonstrated in the questionnaire, act to either encourage good behavior or inter-

vene on bad behavior.

If the patient has no risky behaviors, the provider engages in positive reinforcement techniques in an effort to make sure they stay on that drug-free path. If they demonstrate risky behaviors — maybe they experimented with pills or marijuana — then the provider uses what’s called “brief intervention,” techniques developed by Sharon Levy, a developmental medicine specialist at Boston Children’s Hospital.

“That is kind of a form of motivational interviewing, where they just have a conversation about how that risk of substance misuse can impact their life and try to identify if they’re ready to make any kind of modification in their behavior,” Everett Hill said.

And ultimately, if the provider thinks the patient needs a full clinical assessment or treatment, they will make the necessary referrals.

“It’s been going really well for us. I think it’s just become a part of our culture here,” Everett Hill said.

Success

Screening, Brief Intervention and Referral to Treatment was funded by a grant from the Conrad Hilton Foundation and supplemented and organized by the New Hampshire Charitable Foundation. The foundation modeled it on a pilot program it did with Goodwin Community Health in Somersworth, which was for all age groups. The goal of the initiative, when it launched three years ago, was to screen 10,000 young patients between the ages of 12 and 22. It was adopted by 23 medical facilities across the state, which received grants from the Foundation, according to Rourke. And they ended up screening more than 15,000 young patients.

“So we far exceeded the goals we set,” Rourke said.

Of that, about 15 percent, or roughly 2,000 patients, demonstrated risk factors and nearly 700 met the criteria for needing a referral to clinical assessment or treatment.

He said studies have shown that young people are overwhelmingly honest with medical providers when asked about substance use. And Everett Hill has seen that play out on the ground.

“What we have found is that the kids are really wanting to talk with an adult. And this has given us the opportunity to open up the dialogue and ask the question,” Everett Hill said.

Mayors vs. climate change Will Paris Agreement make a difference?

By Ryan Lessard

news@hippopress.com

Concord is the fifth city in New Hampshire to commit to achieving the goals of the international Paris climate accord to cut carbon emissions — an initiative that’s partly political messaging but is also attached to real action, says Rob Werner, a Concord City Councilor and the state director of the League of Conservation Voters of New Hampshire.

The move by Concord, Nashua, Portsmouth, Keene and Lebanon is part of a national push called Climate Mayors, which has signed on about 380 mayors as of Sept. 26. Werner said the mayors who have signed on nationwide make up a bipartisan mix. Werner said it’s in direct response to the Trump administration’s announced intent to pull the United States out of the accord.

“On the one hand, it’s a statement. On the other hand, it’s a statement that can be backed up by policy,” Werner said.

Communities don’t have to adhere to any specifically prescribed benchmark, but in order to officially commit to the accord, Werner said, they must create an action plan to meet the broadly defined goal of carbon reduction with specific steps.

“These mayors are making a commitment to plow ahead and make sure that their communities are sustainable and moving toward renewable energy sources,” Werner said.

This can mean projects like large-scale renewable energy generation, purchasing renewable energy credits and finding ways to make energy use more efficient.

In the case of Concord, Werner said, the city already offsets about 90 percent of its municipal energy use with RECs from Midwest Wind Energy. And it may pursue a major solar array. An array that generates 1

to 2 megawatts of power would account for about 25 to 40 percent of the city’s electricity bill, Warner said.

Later this fall, Concord is planning to join a Sierra Club program called Ready for 100, which aims to move 100 percent of its energy use to renewable sources by 2050, he said, which will be a part of the city’s action plan.

Werner hopes to get a majority of the mayors in the state, of which there are 13, to sign on. He said he’s been in contact with the mayors of Rochester, Dover, Somersworth, Franklin and Claremont.

But even if every city in New Hampshire commits to reducing carbon emissions, how big a deal is that? After all, this is a planet-wide problem.

“I’m not quite sure how we compare our efforts here from a city of 40,000 versus a global goal. But the point is that it all helps,” Werner said.

He said it’s a global problem that can be addressed, little by little, at a local level.

And the more cities that do this, the bigger the impact. It’s also in keeping with the format of the Paris accord, which is a bottom-up approach without legal mandates.

So far, all the New Hampshire mayors who have committed their cities to the accord are Democrats, Werner said, but he’s hoping that will change soon with some Republican mayors possibly getting on board.

Leadership in New Hampshire’s largest city has expressed no interest in joining the accord so far. In an emailed statement, Manchester Mayor Ted Gatsas, a Republican, pointed to some of his efforts to save the city money through energy efficiency programs, but did not directly address whether he would sign onto the Paris accords.

Democrat Joyce Craig, who is running against Gatsas in the Nov. 7 election, has said she would sign on if elected.

Moving forward

Rourke said that along with providing intervention services for those who are already heading down the road to addiction, providers also need to focus on keeping their non-risk patients on the straight and narrow. The ultimate goal is to make sure those roughly 13,000 patients who tested negative for risk factors continue testing negative in future visits.

Those medical centers that got started with the program through the grants are

continuing to screen patients and intervene when necessary without the grant money in large part because they no longer need it, Rourke said. Screening is a reimbursable service, so the program now pays for itself.

Rourke said the Charitable Foundation also funded training and technical support for the initiative provided through the New Hampshire Center for Excellence, and it will continue to back that with money from its own fund to help other clinics that wish to adopt the screening program.

How did you end up a top executive at a Manchester tech firm?

I actually worked at a company called the Northern Community Investment Corporation. It is a small nonprofit development firm that serves the northern areas of Vermont and New Hampshire. And I worked there as the New Hampshire Grand project manager. … It was all a tourism initiative to work with the grand hotels and some of the … experiences in northern New Hampshire to try and get more folks to go up there and vacation. It was an initiative to try and help augment some of the losses from the lumber industry and the mills closing. I worked there for two years after serving as a consultant for a year and I did a lot of work with the state of New Hampshire through the VisitNH brand. And the website provider for VisitNH was SilverTech. So I had the opportunity to work with them from VisitNH. ... I loved the company and the culture and … wanted to join the company so I ultimately did in 2011. … I started in the sales … and marketing team, became a strategist working on some national brands very quickly, working through some customer engagements that were for utilities and for tourism as well as in the [business to business] space. Then, ultimately, [I] moved back into a little bit of sales and marketing and a little bit of strategy within the last couple years.

what’s going to happen so that when our … potential clients are ready to start using some of those technologies … we are ready to deliver on that.

What are some of the emerging digital trends you have been keeping an eye on?

One of the ones that we’re going to be talking about is Chatbox and Chatbox … is an installation of software that connects different things. … There’s a few different ways you can do it. … We have a … messaging system here — it’s actually a very popular one — called Slack. So think of like an AOL Instant Messenger, but an internal team-based system. We have a couple of Chatbox in Slack that do a couple of cool things for us in the building.

It’s really high ceilings and it’s an older building so the temperature in the room can be comfortable for some and not comfortable for others depending on the time of year.

What we can do is we can message through … Tempbot and we can increase the temperature in the building up or down based on the systems that have been put in place. So we’ll say “Tempbot too cool” in a certain room and it will adjust the heat and within five minutes the heat adjusts. … And it actually has a voting system as well, so more than one person has to be able to say it’s too cool or too warm so that it takes into account everyone in the room and not just one person. … Virtual reality [is another big trend]. Up until this point, it’s been kind of an anomaly. We don’t really know how to use it effectively … as a society.

There’s been some really good examples of how VR has come into play, so I’m going to be talking about those. But it’s still a bleeding edge technology in terms of adoption.

I don’t even know where to start today, after our president has now gone to war with the NFL, the Golden State Warriors’ Steph Curry and the deluge of folks who chimed in after that from around the NFL, the NBA and the entire world on Facebook. Not that he didn’t have his supporters, though most offered the predictable “whiny, crybaby millionaires, blah, blah, blah.”

Should I start with saying that Mr. Drain the Swamp sounds an awful lot like the politicians he claimed he was going to push out of Washington, by telling the goobers in the flag-waving confederacy exactly what they want to hear while sucking up to the base in Alabama on Friday? Or with his forgetting to include “so there” and stick out his tongue as he took back an invitation to visit the White House that Curry had said no thanks to weeks ago?

Or should it be his telling the crowd in Alabama that players who don’t honor the flag should be fired? Not to mention throwing a few other jabs like the ratings being down and fans should walk out on games if it all continues. That brought strong words back from Roger the Dodger, the Players Association and a huge number of players on Twitter. It also engulfed Sunday’s games in unprecedented fashion when nearly 150 players took a knee during the anthem or locked arms in unity against Donald Trump calling players “son of a bitches.” The Steelers stayed in the locker room until the anthem was over and the entire Raiders team sat in protest because they didn’t want to be penalized for a delay of game when the Sunday night broadcast schedule wouldn’t let them copy Pittsburgh.

Now fans certainly have the right to do what he suggested and he has the right to say what he said. But by trashing the NFL and urging boycott, he’s stabbing his “friends” in the back — not the least of which is his buddy Bob Kraft, who said he was “deeply

true war hero in McCain and wriggling off the Vietnam hook. Even though they were absolutely outraged, when Bill Clinton was president, that winning a Fulbright Scholarship let him do the same thing. Somehow draft-dodging was not OK then, but is OK now. Got it.

The hypocrisy in all this is beyond belief where the political divisions of the day are clouding the judgment of good people as they look past bad deeds by Trump when they know better. Even more amazing is it’s completely overshadowed his chilling threat of nuclear holocaust made earlier in the week at the United Nations of all places.

Look, everyone has the right to feel how they feel about players in taking a knee when the national anthem plays. Some see it as disrespect and I understand why. But it’s more complicated than that. Dictatorial North Korea forces people to worship their flag.

Here we don’t, and that freedom guaranteed by the Bill of Rights is one of the things that makes America great a lot more than some contrived political slogan.

Finally, please don’t make this about politics. I have thought Donald Trump was an egotistical destroyer since he failed to make the USFL and Trump Shuttle great again 30 years ago. Today’s politics are just the side show. I’m also with Kerr and the other 67 percent of Americans that polls say believe he is dividing the country. And my question is the same one Houston Texans owner Bob McNair had on Sunday: how can this be productive?

Now he might start by heeding the words of the great John Wooden, who said, “You cannot antagonize and influence at the same time.” But sadly, the only thing I’m more confident of than that the sun will rise in the east tomorrow morning is that he would never heed such a message.

Oh, and that I know it’s going to get worse before it gets better.

disappointed” in Trump’s actions. That’s after many NFL owners donated big to his campaign and inauguration fund. Though, given his penchant for retribution, you don’t suppose it’s payback after failing to get his chance to make the Buffalo Bills great again? Interesting action from a “friend” who says “John McCain was “letting his friends down” by not voting for the Obamacare repeal.

The same John McCain our now flagwaving president mocked for not being a “hero” during Vietnam. Where he was repeatedly beaten and still refused to leave others behind in the Hanoi Hilton when they wanted to use an admiral’s son for propaganda purposes. If that’s not being a hero I don’t know what is. That happened, by the way, while the flag-waver in chief was getting six military deferments. The best of which was for bone spurs — which is what Joe DiMaggio had when he hit .346 in 1949. Where was his “outrage” over not honoring the flag then?

And that was just the beginning. It really got going with the Steph Curry thing. That brought a torrent of responses and insults back on Twitter starting with LeBron James saying, “U Bum.” The Warriors then announced they will not go to the White House after Steve Kerr already said they’d put that to a vote. Kerr, whose father was assassinated in 1984 by Islamic jihadists during the Lebanon civil war, offered the most eloquent response of all by writing, “You’re the president. You represent all of us. Don’t divide us. Bring us together.”

And that is what this is all about really.

A man with a remarkable ability to divide a nation for his own ego gratification and political self-interest. A guy whose incredible remarks after the riot and murder of a young woman in Charlottesville brought on by racists and anti-Semitic Nazis sparked a previous national outrage. But more alarming is the willingness of so many to look past horrid behavior like that because he’s on their side.

That somehow lets those “patriotic” flagwavers be OK with Trump disrespecting a

The Big Story: Nice game by the hometown kid at Gillette when Litchfield’s Ryan Griffin was a thorn in the Patriots’ side most of the day in their 36-33 win over Houston. He had five catches for 61 yards and a TD on a back shoulder throw from Deshaun Watson that boxed out Devin McCourty in the back of the end zone.

Buffalo Bills: NFL team Donald Trump claimed he wanted to buy after the death of owner Ralph Wilson. Even though that dubious claim was more likely a grab for the publicity he craves, the NFL didn’t want any part of The Donald, instead choosing control freak Terry Pegula to be the one to mess things up there for the next 20 years.

Flag-Waving Confederacy: Home of George Wallace, Bull Connors and the Klu Klux Klan. Geographic location: southeast United States. Hypocritical action: constantly yakking about the flag and patriotism while residing in the very locale that took arms up against that flag to start a civil war that took 600,000 American lives. Done so their states had the “right” to have slaves if they wanted to keep their economy humming thanks to low-cost labor. And that battle continued for 100 more years with its vigorous opposition to the civil rights gained by African-Americans from the Civil War. Admittedly a generalization, but one that involved a healthy segment of its population, and as Charlottesville demonstrated in August, apparently still does.

For rent: Goats

Did you know you could rent a chicken as part of a petting farm?

Or a goat to do some yard work?

Or, for a different take on the animal kingdom, how about a mechanical bull for an unforgettable party? We look at a dozen rental possibilities — including lizards, community gardens, comedians and art — that can add an extra something to your party, your home or your outings.

For rent: Petting farms

Why you might want to rent them: Instead of traveling to a farm, bring the animals to you by renting your own petting farm for birthdays and group events. Renters get the opportunity to touch live farm animals while trained handlers teach participants about them.

Rental details: Carriage Shack Farm in Londonderry has been offering traveling petting farms for 30 years, according to owner Brenda Schacht. The mini petting farm travels to you and comes with two goats, two ducks, a pair of fancy chickens, one bunny and chickens or their chicks. The farm costs $225 per hour to rent and the animals are kept within an 8 by 8 foot pen where children and adults can interact with them.

Each type of animal is kept in its own separate pen, and the goat roams the area with the handler. Schacht said that holding the animals can be too stressful for them, so the interactions are kept to petting.

Still, “It’s totally hands-on and we make sure they pet everything,” said Schacht.

The Schacht family knows the animals well because they helped raised each one, Schacht said. And one of the family members accompanies the animals and teaches guests all about them.

Their petting farm can be brought to most locations within an hour and a half drive of

their Londonderry location.

A larger petting farm is also available for corporate events or bigger groups. The larger, deluxe petting farm comes in a 16-by-24-foot pen housing chickens, sheep, a potbelly pig, goats, rabbits, a miniature horse, ducks and guinea hens. The deluxe petting farm is $545 per hour and $195 per additional hour.

A pony ride can be added to either size petting farm for an additional $150.

Whispering Brook Farm in Hudson has a traveling petting farm that can be rented for one hour at a time. For $300 an hour their farm comes with alpacas, sheep, goats, ducks and chickens that are displayed in a show and tell format where kids can pet the animals.

“It’s much more interactive because we do a show-and-tell where you get to see the animals one at time,” said Kim Frenette of Whispering Brook Farms.

The petting farm also comes with a pony ride for kids and the birthday child gets to sit on a llama for a photograph. Their larger farm option costs $150 per hour with a fourhour minimum and comes with country-style wooden fencing, which houses geese, ducks, chickens, a goat, a llama and a pig.

McDonny’s Petting Farm in Derry has a traveling petting farm that is also designed to allow safe interactions between children and animals, which include bantam chickens, assorted ducks, mini lop and rex bunnies,

Why you might want to rent them: If you have a plot of land that has been overgrown with shrubs, vines or poison ivy, one of the best ways to deal with that is by renting a few grazing goats. Ayn Whytemare of Found Well Farm in Pembroke said goats love to eat leafy plants. They’ll graze those down to about four to six inches.

“Where the goats really do well is … an area where you can’t get mechanical equipment into. So hilly areas, rocky areas,” Whytemare said.

They also do well in places with a lot of poison ivy or in conservation land where the use of herbicides is restricted or not good for the land. Goats don’t generally like grass or woody plants.

Rental details: Whytemare will set up an electric fence with two young male goats to graze freely. One week costs $100.

Her farm is based in Pembroke and is only able to provide the service within a 20-mile radius of the farm. She has two teams of two goats that she borrows from a dairy in Danbury and trains a new batch of goats each year. After setting up the fence, she will give the landowner a tutorial on the use of the fence and return once during the week to adjust the fence area. The fence comes with a shelter and landowners need to give the goats a gallon of water each day.

The service is available roughly from mid-

May to September.

Another farm that offers this service in the state is Carriage Shack Farm in Londonderry. Their so-called “Poison Ivy Patrol” consists of seven goats and four sheep. The grazers can clear out a 10-foot by 100-foot area covered in plants like bittersweet vine in a single day, according to Quinton Schacht. But results may vary because of things like inclement weather or the size of the land. It costs $295 per day and Quinton sets up the electric fence and stays with the goats for the whole day.

They operate within an hour to an hour and a half drive from the farm.

and a friendly goat. There is a pen for each type of animal and two people at a time can enter the pens and interact with them. The petting farm ranges from $280 to $330 an hour depending on the distance the farm has to travel from their Derry location.

In some locations across the country, you can also rent just the chicken and for longer than just an afternoon party.

Currently, Rent-A-Chicken, a national company based in Michigan that helps farms get into the business of renting chickens, does not have a New Hampshire farm it is working with. But at Rent-a-Chicken affiliated farms in Vermont and Massachusetts, people rent chickens from farmers so they can have fresh eggs in their kitchen through the warm seasons, according to Rent-A-Chicken owner Leslie Suitor.

They return them during the winter when the birds become harder to manage.

“We were the first in the U.S. to start renting chickens to people — it’s kind of a crazy idea,” Suitor said.

Rent-A-Chicken farms provide customers with the chickens, along with a coop for them to lay their eggs in and other accessories, like feeders. There are currently no established Rent-A-Chicken chicken rental farms in New Hampshire, but Suitor said she is looking for farmers who want to start a chicken rental business here. She said she is working with farms in Massachusetts and Vermont, but since it’s hard for them to deliver chicken rentals across state borders, the market in New Hampshire is open.

For rent: Comedians

For rent: Instruments

Why you might want to rent them: Students in primary and secondary schools who want to practice an instrument in a music class or join band will find the option of renting instruments extremely helpful, according to John Poole, the sales manager at the Manchester Music Mill. It can also come in handy for adult folks who want to learn an instrument but don’t want to pay the full cost in case they don’t stick with it. Some companies like MFI Productions in Hooksett will also rent out band instruments or sound equipment to travelling musicians who have shows in the state.

“Whether they’re a solo artist or a band … we can help them with that,” said Mark Allen with MFI Productions.

Rental details: Manchester Music Mill will sell you any band instruments and buy back the instruments minus a flat rental fee depending on which of three tiers the instrument falls under. Tier 1 instruments (like violins and flutes) range in price from $199 to $249, Tier 2 (like an alto saxophone) ranges between $249 to $599 and Tier 3 (including cellos) is between about $400 and $800. The rental fees are $99, $169 and $200 assuming the instruments were rented over a ninemonth school year. The company also rents out used guitars. The renter pays 5 percent of the cost of the guitar daily or

15 percent weekly.

Allen said customers should call MFI Productions to ask about pricing.

Other companies do it differently. Rosita Lee Music Center in Hudson only rents instruments to their own music students. And O’Leary’s Music Center in Derry offers a rent to own program. Similar to Manchester Music Mill, they divide the instruments into three tiers and offer monthly installments of $23, $39 and $65 respectively. Strings and Things in Concord also have a rent to own plan. Over the course of two to three years, the renters build up the equity to own the instrument.

But if they return it, which they can at any time, they wipe their equity away.

Event planners can also book talent through Party Vision, such as magicians, hypnotists, fortune tellers, caricature artists, face paint artists, roving jugglers, stilt walkers and more.

Fichera said it’s usually best to make orders about 30 days in advance. Soucy agrees it’s always better to book early.

For rent: “Dummy” wedding cakes

good for outdoor weddings and for smaller weddings in which the bride and groom may only host a handful of guests but still want to have the look of a three- or four-layer cake.

She added that these weddings will often have a real sheet cake hidden away, so that participants can have their cake and eat it too.

You can also rent a cupcake tower stand, which is designed to hold dozens of cupcakes stacked on top of each other to represent the look of a real cake.

“Those have become really popular for weddings … because it gives the guest not just one small piece of cake, but a variety of different cakes to choose from,” Singleton said.

Rental details: The cost varies depending on how the cake is designed and what is added, but Singleton said dummy wedding cakes are typically around $100 cheaper than what a regular wedding cake would cost.

Why you might want to rent them: According to Bob Soucy at Special Events of New England in Auburn, renting party supplies can be useful for things like weddings, big backyard barbecues or school graduations. Other companies like Party Vision in Nashua specialize in school or corporate events like homecomings, company outings or fairs and old home days for towns, according to owner Jim Fichera.

Rental details: The cost to rent supplies can vary greatly since there is a wide range of items available to rent. Soucy at Special Events of New England said they rent anything from chairs and tables with linens to coffee machines to big outdoor tents.

“You pay for what you need,” Soucy said.

Generally, the things they rent out are for one-off events that last a day or a weekend and the pricing is based on that single event. Soucy said they are flexible and won’t charge extra if someone needs to pick up the items the day before or drop them off the day after. Delivery and installation services are also available.

For example, chairs range in price from $1 each to $8 each. You can get 10 basic chairs for $10 or thousands for a big event like a graduation. Fancier chairs are for more formal events like weddings, should renters want the option. Soucy said the cost for renting the supplies for a fullblown backyard wedding can be as much as $15,000.

Fichera at Party Vision said they can rent things like mechanical bulls, photo booths, inflatable rides and other outdoor amusements to private renters. They charge a four-hour base price and a certain rate for each additional hour, depending on the

Why you might want to rent them: If you’re planning a wedding and looking to save every buck you can while still going all out, renting a makeshift “dummy” wedding cake as a centerpiece to your big day, especially for outdoor weddings or small weddings with less than 100 people, could be an option.

Jane Singleton of Singleton’s Kitchen & Bakery in Pelham said the cost of a dummy wedding cake could save you $100 or more while still having a decorative showpiece during the wedding reception. Singleton’s specializes in custom wedding cakes and edible party favors and takes special orders online and by phone.

“It’s basically a Styrofoam cake dummy that you rent that is made in the same style that a wedding cake would be made in as far as decorating,” Singleton said.

Singleton said this practice is especially

For rent: Cameras, videography equipment and studio space

Why you might want to rent them: If you have a wedding or an extended vacation coming up and want to capture every moment on photo and film, but don’t necessarily want to spend hundreds or potentially thousands to buy equipment, renting a camera — or a special lens if you already have one — might be the way to go.

“The real reason why someone would rent photo or video equipment is that they just don’t use it enough by owning it,” said Bud Thorpe, owner of The Studio of Photographic Arts in Manchester, a 6,000-square-foot studio that he rents out.

According to Thorpe, the SOPHA is the only photographic equipment rental place in the Granite State. It acts as a memberbased cooperative, but you don’t have to be a member to rent cameras, camera lenses, lighting equipment and even studio time.

“Our renters can either be experienced photographers or just people who aren’t sure how the equipment works and are looking to experiment with it,” he said.

“We definitely have a lot of aspiring professionals and advanced hobbyists and enthusiasts, but anyone can rent from us.”

The available equipment includes many current-generation Nikon and Can-

on DSLR cameras, Sony point-and-shoot cameras, tripods and tripod heads, monopods, video cameras, video and audio production gear and more. The equipment is rented on a first-come, first-served basis, and studio members receive discounts. Thorpe said he recommends calling ahead or requesting a rental online before you come down to pick it up.

“While walk-ins can sometimes be accommodated, we do encourage people to reserve the gear they need especially during the busy season,” he said. “This is actually the peak season for rentals now, not only with the fall foliage, but with vacations and weddings happening this time of year too.”

Thorpe said customers are asked how long they need the equipment for and are quoted a rate and asked to sign a rental agreement.

Rental details: Prices for rentals vary depending on whether you are renting cameras, lenses, tripods or other equipment, but typically range from $20 to $100 for members or $25 to $125 for non-members per rental period. One rental period at the SOPHA is for two nights. One week is considered two rental periods and the cost is doubled. Studio space can be rented for a two-hour minimum for $75 per hour.

For rent: Reptile educators

Why you might want to rent them: Reptile shows are educational as kids learn about snakes, lizards, turtles and more, and the fact that they can get up close and personal with the reptiles helps kids overcome any fears they might have. Plus, it’s just cool to rent them for birthday parties, school events and other kid-oriented activities.

“Honestly, kids will talk about the shows I do for years afterward about how cool it was,” said Alana Hess of Zoo Creatures Pet Store in Plaistow, who also hosts Zoo Parties with Alana. “The thing I would probably stress the most is that it’s just as educational as it is fun.”

Hess can bring usually up to 15 snakes, lizards, and sometimes tarantulas, chameleons, gila monsters and more to any event you are hosting within a 25-mile radius. But rent space for parties at Zoo Creatures Pet Store is also available for $250 per two hours.

“For the most part, it’s a pretty standard roster of reptiles … that are generally used to being exposed to large groups of people,” she said. “But I can always make accommodations, like if I know ahead of time that the kids want to see a lot of chameleons or something, then I’ll bring more.”

Michelle DeBye of Michelle’s Menagerie, who for nearly 30 years has done educational animal shows, said one of her 13 programs involves eight different kinds of reptiles. There are bearded dragons,

geckos, an Egyptian lizard called a uromastyx, a tortoise and a snake, among others.

“I realized that eight animals turned out to be the perfect number,” DeBye said.

“I’ll take out each animal one at a time, talk about interesting facts about it, and take questions at the end.”

Rental details: The cost can range from $160 to $250 for shows depending on the type and business. Shows are typically an hour.

For rent: Bikes

Why you might want to rent them: In June, Bike Manchester partnered with the mobile app Zagster to launch a new bike share program, which currently includes six bike share stations located throughout Manchester where people can pay to unlock and borrow a bike on an hourly basis.

Derek Shooster, associate planner with the Southern New Hampshire Planning Commission, which partners with Bike Manchester, says bike shares are a great option for people looking to get around in a city such as Manchester. People may rent a bike because they don’t have access to other transportation, or they may rent a bike because it’s a convenient way to get to their destination.

“If you work in the Millyard but want to go to Elm Street, it’s just far away enough that it would be more difficult to drive there, find parking, pay for parking, drive back and look for parking again,” Shooster said. “The bikes give people flexibility to make that short trip easily and enjoyably.”

Necessary transportation isn’t the only reason people rent the bikes; people also rent simply because they enjoy riding but don’t own a bike of their own.

“In the summer months especially, it’s nice for someone who is looking to take a recreational, leisurely ride on the rail trail, just to get some fresh air,” Shooster said.

Rental details: The bikes in Manchester’s bike share program are durable cruisers with seven gears, adjustable seats, fenders and chain guard, automatic front and rear lights, Bluetooth-enabled electronic ring locks and a carry basket in front.

Why you might want to rent them: There are more than 80 community gardens in the state where you can rent a small plot of land to grow your own food, flowers and plants.

Robert Spoerl, land agent for the New Hampshire Division of Forests and Lands, who also oversees Birch Street Community Gardens in Concord, said the biggest reason people rent space at a community garden is that they don’t have access to a garden of their own.

“Most people I’ve talked to live in a place with no backyard or not a lot of open space,” he said. “In Concord and Manchester especially, many people live in apartments or condos where they can’t do their own gardening.”

For new gardeners, a community garden can be a way to learn by watching and talking with other gardeners.

“We encourage people to talk to the people next to them and ask questions and get input from the more experienced gardeners,” Spoerl said.

Rental details: Different communi-

To rent a bike, you must first download the Zagster app. Then, at a bike share station, choose a bike and type its unique code into the app, which will give you a code to unlock the bike from the station.

The rate is $2 per hour, maxed out at $16, and is billed through the app. There is a $30 overtime charge, however, for keeping the bike longer than 24 hours. There are also monthly and yearly memberships that allow riders unlimited trips under one hour. When you’re done with the bike, simply return it to any Manchester bike share station and lock it to one of the ports.

— Angie Sykeny ty gardens are run differently. Some only have plots in one size while others have various-sized plots to choose from. Birch Street Community Gardens in Concord, for example, has 25x50, 50x50 and 50x100 plots. Most gardens allow people to grow vegetables, flowers and plants, so long as they are not perennials and can be easily controlled without intruding on adjacent plots. Generally, growing for commercial use is forbidden. Applications for community garden plots are typically accepted in the spring, with the growing season starting in late spring or early summer and continuing through late summer or early fall. Prices vary depending on the garden; Birch Street’s prices are $20 for the smallest plot, $30 for the medium plot and $40 for the largest.

Why you might want to rent it: You don’t have to dish out lots of money or make a big committment to display original, local artwork in your home or workspace.

The New Hampshire Art Association has a variety of art created by its 275 member artists and craftspeople available to rent, from paintings and photography to sculpture and three-dimensional pieces.

There are a number of reasons you may choose to rent rather than buy art. You could rent art as decor for a special event, or you could rent art for a workspace that you will only inhabit temporarily. NHAA assistant gallery manager Kelsey Price said the most common renters are those who are interested in buying a piece of art but aren’t ready to commit.

“They like to test it out first and gauge how it’s going to look in their home to see if they want it to be part of their permanent collection,” Price said.

Rental details: NHAA’s rental selection rotates from month to month and may include art from the association’s current

For rent: Beach gear

Why you might want to rent it: You don’t have to own or bring your own beach gear for your next trip to the Seacoast. Services like Coastal Vacation Supplies in Hampton allow you to rent everything you need for a day of fun in the sun. Their rental selection includes beach chairs for kids and adults, beach umbrellas, beach baby strollers, kids’ beach toys, beach towels, beach games like bocce ball and cornhole, boogie boards and more.

“People are very surprised and very happy when they find out that they can rent [beach gear],” Coastal Vacation Supplies owner Barbara Whalen said. “It’s a great way to take the stress out of your vacation and be able to enjoy it and have a good time.”

Many people don’t have their own beach gear, Whalen said, because they either can’t afford it, don’t have space for it in their home, or rarely visit the beach and don’t have a need for it.

“People don’t want to have to buy a

or recent shows or other art created by the artists featured in those shows.

“People can come into our gallery and take a look at the shows going on and see if there’s a certain artist or a specific style that they like or that fits what they’re looking for,” Price said.

How long a person rents the art depends on their needs. Price said she’s seen people rent for anywhere from three days to three months.

There are no set prices for renting art as they are set on a case-by-case basis determined by the artist, the style and size of the art and the duration of the rental. Interested renters must submit a request to the NHAA stating their intentions for the rental.

“Once we get that request, we’ll work on tailoring [the rental] to fit their specific needs,” Price said. “We’re happy to work with anyone in varying degrees to get their request met.”

product that they’ll hardly use or are never going to use again,” she said.

Renting can also be a good option for people who do own their own beach gear, whether they don’t have room in their car to bring everything they want or just for the convenience of not having to pack and unpack all their gear.

Rental details: Coastal Vacation Supplies and similar services typically allow you to select the items you want to rent and place your order online. The items will be delivered and picked up at the place and time you specify. Most rentals are billed by the week, although Whalen said Coastal Vacation Supplies will offer daily rates starting next year.

ARTS Epic performance

Homer’s Iliad takes a new form onstage

By Angie Sykeny

asykeny@hippopress.com

An ancient Greek tale gets a contemporary twist in theatre KAPOW’s latest production, Living in Exile, which makes its New Hampshire premiere on Friday, Sept.

29, at the Stockbridge Theatre in Derry.

The play is a retelling of Homer’s Iliad, an epic poem that narrates events from some of the final weeks of the Trojan War, focusing on the conflict between King Agamemnon and the warrior Achilles. Set in a modern living room, Living in Exile stars only two actors and two musicians, who use animated storytelling to bring the poem to life.

Theatre KAPOW artistic director Matthew Cahoon discovered the play when it opened in New York City in 2011. When it came time to choose an opening play for the company’s 10th anniversary season this year, which follows the theme “Faith and Story,” Living in Exile seemed like the natural choice.

“It’s been six years since my first experience with the play, but we always held onto the idea of doing it eventually,” Cahoon said. “When you think about the Iliad, it was part of an oral tradition of storytelling, and it tells the story of gods and men, so it fit nicely into this season’s theme.”

The playwright Jon Lipsky, who died in 2011, was a writer, director and professor of acting and playwriting at the Boston University School of Theater. He wrote Living in Exile as a full adaption of Iliad with modern English language and additional imagined scenes not found in the original poem.

“It’s a very accessible piece,” Cahoon said. “There is very little about it that would make you think it’s an ancient Greek

story, but the characters and the story will still seem familiar.”

The two actors will narrate the story and embody a number of characters in a simple living room set and with casual, contemporary dress and ordinary household items as props. The two musicians will perform the play’s original score and musical scenes using various media, such as piano, guitar, percussion and voice.

“Because of the size and scope [of Iliad]

20 Art

— thousands of soldiers, big battle scenes, gods — it’s a very difficult piece of literature to stage, and I think what Lipsky has done brilliantly is staged it as storytelling,” Cahoon said. “He’s challenging theater companies to get really creative and find ways of telling an epic story in an intimate setting.”

That intimate setting is created not only on stage, but also for the audience. The show is limited to around 60 seats, spread across couches and overstuffed chairs, some of which are as close as 10 feet from the stage.

“It will be a different theater-going experience than what most people are used to.

It’s more inclusive of the audience. Every performance feels like you’re in the living room, listening to the story unfold,” Cahoon said. “I think that’s what we’re looking forward to the most. We can’t tell the story without someone to tell it to.”

Cummings which reads, “Damn everything that is grim, dead, motionless, unrisking, inward turning. Damn everything that won’t get into the circle, that won’t enjoy, that won’t throw its heart into the tension, surprise, fear and delight of the circus, the round world, the full existence.” “I trust that I’ve been able to communicate these sentiments, painting with energy, bravery and joyful abandon,” Katrak said in a press release. “I turned to the poet again for guidelines regarding how one might like to view my work.” There will be an opening reception on Friday, Oct. 6, from 5 to 8 p.m., and an artist reception on Sunday, Oct. 8, from 3 to 5 p.m. Gallery hours are Tuesday and Thursday from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m.; Wednesday from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m.; Friday and Saturday from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m., and Sunday from noon to 5 p.m. Visit nhartassociation.org.

Experience N.H.’s farming history at Lamson Farm Day

By Ethan Hogan

ehogan@hippopress.com

New Hampshire’s farming history is preserved each year at a dairy farm in Mont Vernon.

Lamson Farm Day has been a tradition of the town of Mont Vernon for 38 years, and it continues this year on Saturday, Sept. 30.

The free event features activities that celebrate the history of the more than 200-year-old, 322-acre farm with hay rides, tractor displays and black powder gun shooting, according to Lamson Farm Commission Chair Elliot Lyon.

Tractor collectors from the area will bring 25 historic farming machines to the fields for kids to sit on and pretend to ride, Lyon said.

One of the tractors will do a barrell pull where 55-gallon drum barrels are cut in half and given wheels.

Lyon said kids sit in the barrels, which are linked together as the tractor tours them around the the farm.

Purgatory Falls Fish and Game will have a black powder gun shoot where visitors get to shoot an oldfashioned gun at a target down field.

“The kiddos get a kick out of it because they usually hit the target,” said Lyon.

Lamson Farm Day Where: 40 Cross Road, Mont Vernon When: Saturday, Sept. 30, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.

Cost: Admission is free and the barbecue dinner is $10 for adults and $6 for children Visit: facebook.com/ LamsonFarmNH

Children & Teens Children events • CARDBOARD CHALLENGE EXTRAVAGANZA The Fishways will provide cardboard for building. All you have to bring is your imagination.

Pomeroy Farms organizes a hayride that takes guests through some of the old logging roads and past the farm’s hay fields. Some of the fields are still used today to help feed livestock at local farms in the area.

“That time of year, the foliage is coming in and it ends up being a real beautiful ride,” said Lyon.

The farm was the home of the Lamson family, who were the second family to settle in the Mont Vernon area, and the farm remained in the family for seven generations, according to Lyon. The self-sustaining dairy farm produced milk and other dairy products.

“The family lived off what they produced on the farm. … Primarily their focus was dairy farming,” said Lyon.

The farm house and barn were deeded to the town in the late 1970s after the heirs to the Lamson family decided to keep the farm preserved.

The Lamson Farm Commision, of which Lyon is an alternate member, is now responsible for the property. The first floor on the main farm house is rented out to help fund the preservation efforts.

“We are tasked with making sure the farm is maintained and the land has good stewardship,” said Lyon.

Lamson Farm Day is also a fundraising event for the Lamson Farm Commission. The first farm day was held in 1980, not long after the town acquired the land.

“The idea was to allow the townspeople to see the recently acquired property and appreciate the farm,”

Since ancient times, explorers have brought back seeds and seedlings from exotic lands. Some, like the apple, have been a boon.

Others, like the notorious kudzu vine that has taken over parts of the South, have been more of a headache. New England has its cold climate as a natural defense against kudzu and some other invasives. Unfortunately, there are plenty of invasives that like it here.

Invasive plants are those that reproduce rapidly and take over wild habitats, out-competing the native plants that Mother Nature provided, stealing light, water and nutrients from less aggressive plants. By definition, they are alien species, plants that have come here from other countries. These plants are often very good-looking plants, but thugs.

Most invasives produce large numbers of seeds that are distributed by birds, by the wind, or by water. In most cases, invasives are also difficult to remove or eradicate once established, and have extensive root systems that preclude simply pulling them up.

Back home, in their country of origin, most invasives have predators — insects or diseases — that keep their numbers in check. They may have come inadvertently in the ballast of sailing ships, or been brought by well-intentioned people who thought they were pretty or had some use for them. Some, like burning bush, barberry and Norway maple, have been introduced and sold because they are essentially indestructible — and pretty.

What can you do? For starters, you can learn to identify the prohibited species in your state, and eliminate them on your own land.

Go online to obtain a list for your state, or go to the website of the New England Wild Flower Society, newfs.org; you can be connected to each state’s list of invasive, prohibited plants.

Getting rid of invasives, however, may not be easy for two reasons: you may like the invasive species, and may have planted it before you knew better. I have friends with a big Norway maple that was given to them by a loved one. They don’t want to cut it down, and I understand that. But I hope they will cut it down.

Secondly, it may not be easy to eliminate your invasives, even with the use of herbicides (which you probably don’t want to use anyhow). Many invaders have very extensive root systems and will re-sprout if simply cut down.

The Norway maple, for example, is a lovely-looking tree that grows fast and survives well even in urban areas. It will grow in sun or partial shade and is not bothered by road salt.

Each year a mature Norway maple produces thousands of seed pods. Runoff can also car-

Burning bush is loved for its fall color, but is invasive.

ry seeds through subsurface drainage systems to an outlet in a natural environment, even if your tree is in a city. Seeds from your tree can end up in streams, rivers, ponds. Thus even city dwellers can make a difference, helping to control the propagation of this invasive tree by cutting down theirs.

Some people don’t believe that Crimson King, one of the most commonly sold cultivars of Norway maple, is a problem. It has rich red-purple leaves — but these leaves are never seen in the wild. Apparently all Crimson Kings are clones of one plant that had a genetic mutation. But usually when they produce seed, the seeds produce green-leaved progeny.

You should also know that if you do cut down your Norway maple, your lawn and gardens will do better. All maples, but Norway maples in particular, send roots far and wide, and suck the water and nutrients out of the soil — making life tough for other plants.

To see if maple trees growing wild near you are Norway maples, do this simple test: snap off a leaf at its attachment point, and look at the stem. If it oozes a milky sap, it’s a Norway maple. The leaves also tend to be broader and larger than sugar or red maple leaves.

What are some other popular and common invasives you can work to eliminate? Bush honeysuckle, barberries of all kinds, burning bush (that fall favorite with bright red leaves), autumn olive, buckthorn, privet, oriental bittersweet and multiflora rose.

Digging out invasives is the best approach, getting them when they are young. Cutting them down prevents them from producing seeds, but often stimulates them to send up many new shoots, compounding the problem in the long run.

You may decide to eliminate invasives for the sake of your grandchildren, or for the environment. Even in states with good laws prohibiting the sale of invasive plants, no one can force you to cut down or pull out your invasive plants. But think of all the great plants you can buy and plant if you get rid of those invasives!

Trish M Dear Trish, Thanks so much for reading, and for sending such good pictures of the chairs.

I am saddened to have to say that there is almost no market left for this style of Victorian (late 1800s)-aged chair. In today’s rugged generation it seems they don’t care much for this dainty and fragile-style chair.

If you could find a person looking to fill a Victorian home, then you might be lucky to find them a new home. But on average each chair is only worth $25 or so. I am really guesstimating. I have seen them sell for much less too. The saddest part to this is it would cost so much more to re-cane them should the seats or backing break.

I wish I could give you better news — and if they were appraised for standing the test of time in the original condition, I would say they should be priceless! I hope

IN/OUT CAR TALK

Reader needs a second opinion on dubious issue Dear Car Talk: The last time I replaced a water pump was because it leaked.

That was 1979, in a 1973 Mercury Capri.

My high-school boyfriend did the work in

By Ray Magliozzi my parents’ garage while I helped. I have never replaced a timing chain (or belt), and several of my cars have hit 100,000 miles. So why does the Honda dealer want to replace the timing chain and water pump on my 2010 Honda Element at 120,000 miles when there is nothing wrong with this vehicle? He wants $585! That is good money that I could spend on an upgraded mountain bike that belongs inside my Element when the seats are folded up. Do I need this, or is it an unnecessary bit of dealer-recommended maintenance? — Beverly It’s hard to tell just from what you say here, Beverly.

The timing chain in your Element is supposed to last the life of the vehicle. So it’s not something the dealer would change as part of any regular maintenance — unless he had a large boat payment due.

But sometimes the timing chain doesn’t

last the life of the car. The chain can get loose over time and make noise. If it gets loose enough, it can jump and cause the crankshaft and camshafts to get out of sync, and that’ll set off your check engine light. Was your check engine light on?

Or maybe the dealer noticed that the timing chain has some play in it — which he can hear — or he noticed the chain’s tensioner making noise. If you didn’t change your oil as often as you were supposed to, that could cause the chain to loosen up or the tensioner to fail prematurely.

But since you’re dubious, I think you should get a second opinion. First, clarify the diagnosis with your dealer. Ask him to tell you what he saw or heard that makes him think the chain needs to be replaced.

Then go to mechanicsfiles.com and put in your ZIP code. You’ll get a list of mechanics in your area that have been personally recommended by other people who read our column and listen to our radio show.

You even can look for someone on that list who specializes in Hondas. And have a mechanic you trust look at your car, and see if his conclusion is the same.

And ask him if you need a water pump, too. On Hondas with timing belts, we always change the water pump when we

change the timing belt, because the timing belt drives the water pump. So once you’ve removed the timing belt, you’ve already paid for the water pump replacement labor.

It’d be malpractice not to do it then, since the water pump is as old as the timing belt.

On your car, the timing chain doesn’t drive the water pump, but there is some duplication of labor. So with 120,000 miles on the water pump, too, it probably makes sense to change it.

If the second mechanic gives you the same diagnosis, then you should apologize to the dealer for doubting his honesty.

Tell him you feel bad, and that he was absolutely right. But then have it fixed by whichever guy is cheaper. Good luck, Beverly.

Dear Car Talk: I have a 2001 Monte Carlo SS, and when I step on the brakes, the pedal goes all the way to the floor, but the car doesn’t stop at all. Pads and fluid are good. Is it the master brake cylinder? — Kasey Well, that sounds exciting, Kasey. If you lived long enough to read this, you’ll be heartened to know that your guess probably is correct.

If you don’t have a massive leak, it

probably is the brake master cylinder. The master cylinder is basically a hydraulic pump filled with brake fluid. There’s a piston inside it — like in a bicycle pump. And when you step on the brake pedal -- you push that piston, which forces the hydraulic fluid, under pressure, out to the brakes.

And typically, the way master cylinders fail is that the seals around the piston fail. So when you push the piston, the fluid just sneaks around it, rather than getting pushed out to the brakes. That leads to exclamations that contain two words, the first of which is “Oh.” And master cylinders often fail intermittently. While they’re in the process of dying, they can work poorly in cold weather, and then, when the seals around the piston heat up and expand, they can work better.

But you don’t want to mess around with a car that doesn’t stop, do you, Kasey?

I guess we should compliment you on being a very calm individual. You must have very low blood pressure. Normally, when someone’s brakes go to the floor, he or she doesn’t go home, calmly write a letter to some automotive columnist and hope they publish an answer in the next few weeks.

HIPPO | SEPTEMBER 28 - OCTOBER 4, 2017 | PAGE 32

The first annual Greater NH Small Business Fest is being held on Saturday, Sept.

30, at the Greater Derry Boys & Girls Club — and it’s being organized by a 17-year-old senior at Pinkerton Academy.

Jack Potvin is a member of Future Business Leaders of America and DECA. Potvin said that in talking to small businesses in the greater Derry area while working on extracurricular activities, he found the businesses wanted help with social media and getting people in the door. He decided a festival that brought the people to the businesses was the best way to solve those problems.

“It’s a big opportunity for them to increase their visibility and to meet with new customers in the community,” said Potvin. “We wanted to invite the whole community to see the local businesses.”

The outdoor festival will have more than 20 businesses from the greater Derry area with booths set up to give residents the opportunity to meet with owners face to face. Jack said he has met with many of the business owners while organizing the event.

“For a kid to be able to meet all these local business [people] and pick their brains a little was great for me,” said Potvin.

Ernie Lombard is one of those businesspeople. He started his electric company a year and a half ago and is looking forward to meeting Greater Derry residents at the festival.

“It’s always good to get a face to a phone number,” said Lombard.

Lombard said he has known Potvin since

Where: Boys & Girl Club of Greater Derry (40 E. Derry Road, Derry) When: Saturday, Sept. 30, from noon to 4 p.m.

he was young. Lombard would coach teams that would play against Potvin.

“He’s smart. ... He has the knowledge for it and he’s pushing to get to it,” said Lombard.

Other vendors who helped sponsor the event include Kershaw Landscaping, Heritage Restaurant, Tech Watch 24-7, Lombard Electric and Drewski Sneaker Repairs and Sneaker Dry Cleaning Shop.

There will be a farm stand with corn donated by Peter’s Farm in Salem. Other food is being provided by Rigatoni’s Italian Take Out and Heritage restaurant, which serves American-style steak, pork and chicken dishes.

A three-point basketball competition will award the winner a cash prize for hitting the most three-point shots throughout the day.

Potvin said that having something for everyone at community events is important.

This is not the first event Potvin has organized, and it’s not the first time he has experimented with entrepreneurship. When Potvin was 7, he and his brother took a boat around Big Island Pond in Derry and sold snacks to people hanging out on sandbars.

“Both my parent have owned their own business at different points, and I guess I got that gene,” said Potvin.

Last year, Potvin helped organize a Catwalk for a Cause event at Pinkerton Academy where faculty and students strutted their stuff and raised money for the National Alliance on Mental Illness.

Before organizing fundraisers, Potvin had also created a sneaker collectors event where “sneakerheads” bought, sold and traded sneakers. The event was called Sneakerhead Heaven and was held twice in 2015 at Pinkerton Academy.

Now in his last year of high school, Potvin plans to study business and marketing in college but has not committed to a school yet.

He said he intends to continue the festival next year.

Proceeds from the Small Business Festival will go to the Greater Derry Boys & Girls Club, which is hosting the event.

It’s peak apple-picking season, and the fruit will be the star ingredient in the homemade ciders, crisps and pies that will be featured at the Hollis Apple Festival.

The event is happening at Monument Square on the Hollis Town Common on Sunday, Oct. 1. Festival publicity chairwoman Cathy Gast said the festival has been a tradition for more than 50 years, with joint sponsorship by the Hollis Town Band and the Hollis Woman’s Club.

“We always have it on the first Sunday in October,” she said. “It’s meant to celebrate the harvest season for apples and the farms and other agricultural communities.”

Gast said members of the woman’s club prepare close to 100 apple pies and 50 9x13 pans of apple crisp, all homemade using apples grown at Lull Farm and Brookdale Fruit Farm, both in Hollis, as well as other area farms. The Doc Davis Ice Cream Stand, which is has locations in both Brookline and Pepperell, Mass., will be there to provide vanilla ice cream to go with apple crisp or pie.

More than 10 gallons of homemade apple cider are also donated by Lull Farm, according to Gast.

“There’s also an apple orchard adjacent to where the festival is going to be,” she said. “It’s not a part of the festival, techHollis Apple Festival When: Sunday, Oct. 1, 2 to 4 p.m.

nically, but it just happens to be there for people to go see.”

In addition to the food, eight to 10 tables of artisan and craft vendors like photographers, watercolorists, jewelers and woodworkers are expected to appear at the festival, according to Gast.

The town green will have various games and family-friendly activities like hula hoops, face-painting and more.

The Hollis Town Band, a staple of the festival each year, will be performing for its duration, according to Gast. Admission to the festival and access to the band’s performance are both free, while all food is available for purchase per item.

One of the highlights of this year’s festival will be the Town Band’s performance of “Military Escort in Five Ways,” in honor of longtime band member Charlie Woods, who died earlier this year. The band will also be performing its own versions of “Phantom of the Opera” and selecCATHY GAST tions from the movie The Patriot

by John Williams, as well as its usual raffles and “Stars and Stripes Forever” performance to keep with tradition.

“The funds from the event are used for scholarships and to support nonprofits in the area, so it’s kind of like a service activity that’s done,” Gast said.

Polish celebration

Day of song and ceremony honors locals’ heritage

By Ethan Hogan

ehogan@hippopress.com

A commemoration of the Pulaski Statue will kick off a celebration of local Polish heritage during the second annual Polish Fest and Pulaski Day, happening Sunday, Oct. 1, at the Holy Trinity Polish National Cathedral in Manchester.

HIPPO | SEPTEMBER 28 - OCTOBER 4, 2017 | PAGE 36

The celebration will begin at 9 a.m. with a Mass at the Holy Trinity Church, and the statue of Brigadier General Casimir Pulaski at nearby Pulaski Park will be honored with ceremonies starting at 10:30 a.m. Pulaski was a Polish commander who fought during wars in Poland and for America in the Revolutionary War. Pulaski is known as the father of the American cavalry.

“We honor his service for the freedom

that we all have now,” Pulaski Day Committee member Maryann Skwierz said.

Children in traditional Polish outfits will help sing the Polish national anthem and the national anthem of the United States.

There will be speeches about the Manchester area’s Polish heritage, and Mayor Ted Gatsas will declare the start of Polish Fest, Skwierz said. Local historians Aurore Eaton and Patricia Howard will also talk

about the history of the statue and plans to restore it.

There will be a folk mass at 11 a.m. with polka music at the St. Hedwig Roman Catholic Church.

Dinner starts at 1 p.m. at the St. Hedwig parish hall, where the polka music will continue and traditional Polish food will be served. Skwierz said there will be golabki stuffed cabbage, which is a baked dish served with either ground beef or pork mixed with rice, onions and spices and rolled into a cooked cabbage leaf.

There will also be pierogi dumplings stuffed with potato, cheese, onion and seasoning. Kielbasa will be served with kapusta, a cooked shredded cabbage flavored with sauerkraut and seasoning.

Skwierz said there will be several other Polish appetizers and a dessert of American ice cream.

“It’s a light finish to a hearty Polish meal,” said Skwierz.

The polka dancing will continue through dinner with the New Hampshire-based Easter Sound Orchestra.

“Everybody gets up and dances; older people will do the oberek and younger people will do plak, and some will do both,” said Skwierz.

While the Pulaski statue ceremony has been held since 1936, when the statue was installed, Swierz said, the food and dancing at St. Hedwig Church is a more recent and originally separate event. Last year the Pulaski Day committee decided to combine them.

“We decided to have it on the same day because it would bring the whole thing together,” said Skwierz.

A variety of specialty items, from gourmet grilled cheeses and tacos to cupcakes and cannolis, will be served out of trucks when the New Hampshire Food Truck Festival returns for its fourth year to Redhook Brewery in Portsmouth on Sunday, Oct. 1.

Food Truck Festivals of America launched in 2011 to bring the popular urban food trend to areas in the country where food trucks aren’t quite as prevalent.

“We always try not to do our festivals … in major metropolitan areas like Boston or New York City, because those areas are saturated with food trucks on every corner, and it didn’t make sense because people can go to them there every day,” said Janet Prensky of the Massachusetts-based Aigner/Prensky Marketing Group, which created Food Truck Festivals of America.

“So to have events like this in Portsmouth, for example, it’s a real treat for people to come experience 20 to 25 different food trucks all in one place.”

Food Truck Festivals of America organizes similar events all across the country, featuring trucks based within a two-hour driving radius of each venue.

“Food trucks are always looking for new markets … and for people up in southern New Hampshire who, for example, may have heard of the Roxy’s Grilled Cheese food truck down in Boston but have never had a chance to get down there and try it, [this event] seemed like a formula that worked very well,” Prensky said.

Prensky said most of the food trucks appearing at the festival have simple but specialty menu items. You can try a gourmet short rib grilled cheese sandwich with Asiago cheese and caramelized onions and sourdough bread from Roxy’s Grilled 40

38 Cheese, or a “barbecue sundae” from the award-winning Rhode Island-based GottaQ Barbeque, which is a layer of pulled pork topped with a layer of macaroni and cheese, a layer of coleslaw and a layer of cornbread all in one cup.

Other trucks that will be there this year include Clyde’s Cupcakes, Cape Cod Cannolis, Mediterranean Home Cooking and Teddy’s LunchBox. A newcomer to this year’s festival is Cousins Maine Lobster.

“Their specialty is lobster everything, so lobster soups, chowders, quesadillas, paninis, you name it,” Prensky said.

If you’re new to experiencing the food truck trend, Prensky recommends choosing smaller items in order to get the most of out multiple trucks.

“What becomes really fun is getting to graze around a lot of the different trucks, 9:07:24 AM since they are all there for the day and you have the opportunity to do so,” she said.

“We often have a waiting list for our festivals and make determinations on what truck goes where … so that there is a nice variety.”

Just eight food trucks participated in Food Truck Festivals of America’s first event in Plymouth, Mass., in 2011. But more than four times as many people showed up for it, so many that the grilled cheese food truck ran out of cheese, Prensky said.

“We actually had to buy 20 pounds of cheese at a nearby market,” she said. “Basically what came out of all of that first event was that we realized food trucks were here to stay and that we were on to something.”

In addition to the trucks, the event will feature craft beers, live music by The Budds, and games like cornhole, giant Jenga and more. Prensky said people are invited to bring blankets and chairs and stay to enjoy the atmosphere of the festival.

“Food trucks are a burgeoning business, and people find they are always pleasantly surprised by the quality of the food,” Prensky said. “So we hope that it’s a great day to just eat, drink and be merry.”

Tasty food from fresh ingredients

Apples Living on the Seacoast in the fall is the only acceptable consolation that our wonderful summer is over. The air is crisper and the activities and cuisine follow suit.

After we married, my husband and I lived in San Francisco for a few years. Particularly in the city, seasons are easily felt or spotted. Fall was the sunniest time of year and winter the rainiest but there was no large, felt change. For this New Englander, it was kind of weird! On one hand, you could always be outside, which was so nice. On the other hand, the passage of time felt completely different. While I miss the mild climate of San Francisco come February and March, I’m so grateful to live in a place where the four seasons are well-pronounced, felt and celebrated.

One can’t write about the cuisine of fall without mentioning apples. They are everywhere! From donuts to cider, apples dominate the fall scene. Apples are such a favorite in my house that we planted a couple of apple trees in our yard. They started out as small as twigs four years ago and this year yielded their first crop! These trees produce some of the juiciest and tartest apples Chipotle Chili with Sweet Potatoes and Apples 2 canned chipotle peppers in adobo sauce, chopped finely 2 cloves garlic, minced * You can blend above two together in small food processor for ease 3 medium bell peppers, chopped 1½ pounds ground beef or ground turkey 1 large sweet or yellow onion, chopped 1 pound sweet potato, peeled and cut into 1-inch pieces 1 15-ounce can black beans, rinsed 1 can of sweet corn, drained 1 14½-ounce can fire-roasted tomatoes, not drained 2 14½-ounce cans vegetable broth (can sub replace 1 with a can of beer)

• MILFORD FARMERS MARKET The market also features weekly live music. Sat., 10 a.m. to 1 p.m., through Oct. 14. Tractor Supply parking lot, Granite Town Plaza, 191 Elm St., Milford. Visit milfordnhfarmersmarket.com, call 3450860 or email awcolsia@gmail. com.

I’ve ever had, and we had to figure out a way to serve them (beyond applesauce and apple pie, our go-tos). Enter a new chili recipe.

When a good friend of mine had a baby about four and a half years ago, I made her a chili with sweet potatoes that she loved.

Of course I’ve lost the recipe and have no idea what was in that chili! Since I have all these apples, I wanted to give another chili with sweet potatoes a go.

I found a great recipe on Midwest Living I just had to try. While I modified the recipe a little to my tastes (skipped the beer since I’m 8,979 months pregnant), it turned out great. It is an interesting take on a classic that will leave you wanting more.

The moral of my story today is, cooking with apples can be just as amazing as baking with them. After you and your loved ones return from your favorite orchard this year, try something new with those apples.

— Allison Willson Dudas 2-3 medium Granny Smith or tart red apples (Cortland works great), peeled, cored and coarsely chopped Salt and pepper to taste 1 teaspoon olive oil Heat olive oil in large pot (chili will go in here) over medium high heat. Throw in chopped onions and ground meat, stirring until browned. Drain excess liquid.

Add in chipotle peppers and garlic, stirring well, for about 5 minutes. Then, add everything else (potatoes, tomatoes, corn, beans, broth, apples and any seasoning you want).

Bring to boil and then simmer, covered, for 25 to 30 minutes. Sweet potatoes should be slightly tender (but I like them to still have a little bit of body and not fall apart).

Serve with cornbread, sour cream or whatever you’d like!

Now that the really hot weather has subsided for the most part, it is time to start drinking reds again. Many wineries are in the middle of harvest, getting the grapes ready to ferment over the winter. It is one of the best times of the year for wine, and fall wine tastings are one of my favorite things about the season.

The Lakes Region Barrel Tasting weekend used to be a highlight of the fall for me. That event has since morphed into the Good Libations Tour, with not only wineries but breweries, distilleries, cideries and meaderies participating. Last year it happened during the first weekend in October, but now the tour is set up so people can do it at any time, planning their own route by following the map at lakesregionchamber.org/ nh-good-libations-tour.

However, though there’s no official weekend event this year, it looks like many Good Libations Tour participants are promoting this weekend — Saturday, Sept. 30, and Sunday, Oct. 1 — as the best time to take the tour, as they are hosting special events both days.

In years past, you paid one price for a tasting glass or glasses and then took it with you. Things are a little different this year, so it is best to figure out your route and then check out each stop. Each location may have different hours as well, so plan ahead.

Here is the Good Libations Tour at a glance.

Wineries: Coffin Cellars, Webster; Gilmanton Winery, Gilmanton; Hermit Woods Winery, Meredith; Whippletree Winery, Tamworth, and Seven Birches Winery, Lincoln Distilleries: Tamworth Distillery, Tamworth, and Cold Garden Spirits, Canterbury Breweries: Hobbs Tavern & Brewing Company, West Ossipee; Canterbury Aleworks, Canterbury, and Big Water Brewery, Salisbury Meadery: Sap House Meadery, Center Ossipee Coffin Cellars will be debuting its newest varietal, yellow raspberry, during the weekend with a limited batch available. You can also check out its new tasting room if you have not had a chance to do so yet. Hermit Woods will have wine tastings from the barrel, regular wine tastings and winery tours available.

town Portsmouth at 104 Congress St. I have been following their progress on their Facebook page and it looks like they planned to open this week. This will be a great addition to a city that has a lot of great breweries but is light in the winery department.

This location will have wine tastings, a wine and gift shop and a fine art gallery. It will also have hosted programs similar to those in Amherst, like The Winemaker’s Kitchen Cooking with Wine Series, and will be available for private events.

LaBelle has really grown, first with its current winery location in Amherst and now with this new location. They are now able to use their own grapes in their wines because the vines and fruit have matured.

The Amherst location will have a Winemaker’s Kitchen event coming up on Oct. 1, Cooking with Beer, which will include chili and more on the menu.

Harvest updates

Many wineries are currently harvesting grapes, including Appolo Vineyards in Derry. If you’d like to help out, just a reminder that they will be holding a couple of harvest festivals, including Blushing Bride and Dragonfly Red this Saturday, Sept. 30; Niagara and Dragonfly White will be Oct. 7 and Red One will be Oct. 14. Visit their Facebook page for more information and details.

Fulchino Vineyard in Hollis has also been busy harvesting grapes, with a reported 19,000 pounds harvested and crushed so far. Calls for volunteers are typically put on Facebook when the grapes are ready, so check out their page for more information.

Being part of the harvest is a great way to get a closer look at the winemaking process.

I highly recommend participating if you are able. You’ll learn something about wine and LaBelle expands you’ll be helping out your local winemakCongratulations to LaBelle Winery on er with one of the many steps that is a lot of opening a second satellite store in down- work.

Debut album from current Boston resident Tom Freeman’s one-man DIY operation, which has amassed 2 million Spotify plays for the single “Comes and Goes.” That song isn’t on this one, but this is more of a nextlevel achievement for him anyway, an extension of the raw, unplugged folk that marked his initial artistic endeavors. The takeaway you’ll most likely end up with after sampling this stuff is stark, no-frills Wilco teamed with Bon Iver, if you want some sort of popular references; it’s casually strummy, borderline lo-fi, with Freeman’s adenoidal tenor lighting the way through tunnels of loneliness and disorientation. Not a folkie record per se, surely, and, getting back to the aforementioned single, that’s more a jangle-rockout with Dandy Warhols-level hooks. Some geniuslevel catchiness here. A+ — Eric W. Saeger Joseph Childress, Joseph Childress (Empty Cellar Records)

The problem with a lot of hipsterAmericana is that it’s too weird to stomach for the most part. Anyone can deal with a little off-key scuttling of emotional baggage (not that said baggage ever actually does get offloaded, as you know, especially if a — gasp — legitimate following starts to gather), but humans do like to feel at least a little in-control, a sense you don’t always get from alt-folk played by guys who think the world owes them rapt attention just because they survived a few years in a loft in Queens. All that being said, this is the exact opposite, a feather-light set of tunes that evoke the real life he’s lived, working on a cattle ranch in Wyoming, riding trains and living out of his car.

Childress deserves to be on your radar if you like heartfelt, honey-sweet twee-Americana; his vibe is mousy but refreshingly honest, his voice a cross between Neil Young and Sufjan Stevens but volume set to 2. Best of luck to this guy. A+ — Eric W. Saeger

Migrating South?

• Do you know anybody that digs the rockin’ grunge sounds of London band Wolf Alice? I do, and this person almost got me into them, like, I listened to their old song “Moaning Lisa Smile” and it actually impressed me, but then I realized it was basically a ripoff of everything cool Alice in Chains did on the Dirt LP, except they have a girl singer, and then I went on with my day. No harm, no foul, though, and they have a new album coming out Sept. 29, titled Visions of a Life. Will I be disappointed if I go listen to one of the singles? I don’t know if I could be, really, so let’s go and check out the new song “Don’t Delete the Kisses.” Hmph, it’s like twee-shoegaze, light, wimpy, sexless, cheesy. The girl sings a lot better now than she did before.

• Does anyone actually follow the comings and goings and evolution of Miley Cyrus, or is it just an army of paid PR people hitting “thumbs up” on her videos and no one really cares, like, at all? I mean, I sure don’t, but yes, if you’re someone with a vested interest in the latest Miley news, like, maybe you work for one of those “click farms” in the Phillipines that helps to make Kim Kardashian and Miley Cyrus front-page news on Yahoo or Buzzfeed, I do have news, namely that Miley’s new LP, Younger Now, is on the way. Yes, there will be songs on it, and one of them is the title track, in which she hints that the stripper poles and twerking are over. She looks exactly like Bieber now, did you notice, and the song is like mellow pub-country, almost like k.d. lang but without any soul. Barf. Totally, all the way, barf.

• Happy happy joy joy, it’s a new Primus album, for all you people out there who are super-weird, and it’s called The Desaturating Seven! Hopefully this stuff will be weird enough for you.

Very best of luck with it!

• Since it’s like two days before the Christmakwaannukah rush, everyone is putting out albums, including Keep Shelly in Athens with Philokalia, Echosmith with Inside a Dream and of course — that’s right! — stoned old mummy David Crosby and his new eight-or-however-many-song whatchacallit, Sky Trails! Can’t you just feel the paisley and butterflies and the smell of the drunk tank, where David Crosby sits most of the time, making up songs to pay for bail, fully knowing that I’m the only one who’s going to give them any attention? And why do I do that? Why do I add news of new David Crosby albums every time I hear about them?

Because it’s like a real-life version of The Mighty Wind, all these albums he puts out. I respect that he played at Woodstock with those other guys, but shouldn’t he just be sitting in an outhouse somewhere in Kansas, growing sage and wolfsbane? Either way, this stuff will be awesome. Peace out! — Eric W. Saeger

There’s more to small-town life in New Hampshire than meets the eye. That’s what Hancock author Howard Mansfield set out to uncover in his latest book, Summer Over Autumn: A Small Book of Small Town Life, which he’ll present at Gibson’s Bookstore in Concord on Thursday, Sept. 28, and other New Hampshire locations in October.

The book, which was released earlier Courtesy photo. this month, contains 21 essays about people, places and things in New Hampshire’s Monadnock Region, such as animals, tractors, trees, yard sales, funerals and money.

“New Hampshire is made up of a mix of different things. To see all the eccentricities and [points of] interest, you have to look for the deeper stories,” Mansfield said.

“You have to look at how the moments in small-town life open up to a bigger view.”

In one of the essays, Mansfield explores the layout of Hancock’s Main Street, which appears neat and well-ordered at first glance but, upon a closer look, is revealed to have a number of quirky details that give it character.

“You can start to see that things are a little askew,” he said. “It’s disorderly within limits. The largest house is next to the smallest house. Some buildings don’t face the street. There is symmetry and asymmetry. But that gives it this kind of looseness and breathing space that makes it interesting to look at.”

Mansfield also draws parallels between simple things and broader ideas. For example, he likens an old chair in his studio — beaten up, sawed into, painted and repainted — to the New Hampshire landscape, filled with “rough beauty and toughness.”

Other essays highlight the workers and volunteers serving small-town fire stations, libraries and meetinghouses.

“They’re the people who keep the town going,” Mansfield said. “They don’t stand in pretentiousness. They just believe in

where they live and in helping their neighbors. They surprise us with the grace of the ordinary.”

Curiosity, Mansfield said, is what drives him to investigate the various elements of small town life in New Hampshire. When he comes across something that intrigues him, the first questions he asks himself are “Why am I interested in this?” “What do I think about it?” and “What is the opposite of what I think is true?” From there, he begins research on the subject, looking at historical archives and interviewing people who can provide valuable insight.

The title of the book is based on a particular moment that Mansfield has observed every year in mid to late August, when summer is still in full bloom but the very first glimpse of autumn appears.

“You look at the side of a mountain, and it’s green, but there’s just a bit of yellow slipping out from under the green,” he said. “It’s one of those moments we all pass through. We pass through many moments like that every day.”

Mansfield’s hope is that Summer Over Autumn will inspire readers to look at their home towns with fresh eyes, to ask more questions and to dig deeper into what makes those towns unique.

“Maybe they’re going out on a road that they’ve gone down a thousand times, but this time, they see something new in the landscape or in their neighbor or in a building,” he said, “and maybe that makes them appreciate it anew and enriches their daily life.”

HIPPO | SEPTEMBER 28 - OCTOBER 4, 2017 | PAGE 48

A Crack in Creation, by Jennifer Doudna and Samuel Sternberg (Houghton Mifflin Harcourt, 249 pages) The most important news on the planet this year does not involve Donald Trump or Mother Nature.

It involves a biochemist named Jennifer Doudna, whose discoveries led to the headlines that stand to affect more of us — and our descendants — than anything going on in Texas, Florida or Washington, D.C., right now.

Those headlines, published in August, announced that U.S. scientists had successfully edited a human embryo for the first time, erasing a gene that causes a heart defect. The accomplishment is monumental in its potential for good and for evil, and if we lived in a society driven by intellect, not passion, it would be all anyone was talking about. We now live in a world in which it is possible for scientists to edit a human being as easily as an English teacher can edit an essay.

Unfortunately, the president dominates the news, and there’s also the fact that the science behind gene editing is prohibitively complicated for anyone without advanced degrees.

Nobly, Dr. Doudna seeks to explain it, and the moral questions it raises, in A Crack in Creation, Gene Editing and the Unthinkable Power to Control Evolution, which she wrote with Samuel H. Sternberg.

Disappointingly, they fail.

Because of its provocative subject, the book ought to sizzle like a burger on a hot grill, but it is laborious to read, an anesthetic for the brain. It has two fundamental problems.

First, it is peppered with acronyms, which, as anyone conversant with good writing practices knows, serve as stop signs for readers.

There are a few acronyms so well-known that this doesn’t matter — IRS and DNA are examples — but the liberal use of lesser-known acronyms makes reading tortuous for the reader.

To be fair, it’s impossible to write about gene editing without using the term CRISPR, but the reader must hobble through pages littered with CXCR4 and HTT genes and WHIM syndrome, AAV and DMD and ZFN, and TALENs and Cas9 proteins.

Being told once what these acronyms mean does nothing to help the casual reader, and Doudna and Sternberg, both Ph.D.s who rarely encounter average American intelligence in their labs, are great intellects possessed of many skills, but not the ability to translate for mortals. This leads to the second problem: It’s more or less a textbook on gene editing, the fascinating but complex process by which scientists are manipulating DNA inside living cells.

A Crack in Creation aspires to make a science lesson more appealing by injecting Doudna into the story, giving snippets of her life growing up in Hawaii, hanging out

with colleagues celebrating the 25th anniversary of her lab (karaoke and scientific presentations!), even the nightmares she has that convey Doudna’s concern about where the technology could go.

But instead of humanizing the story, these anecdotes seem inserted as afterthought; they lack sparkle and an emotional center.

Example: Doudna went into science, in part, because her father, a college professor, gave her a copy of James Watson’s book about DNA, The Double Helix, when she was 12. Her father later died from melanoma, a clearly traumatic event, to which she devotes seven sentences. She mentions that they discuss what happens to us after death, but declines to offer any detail that would add poignancy and depth.

If you’re looking for explanations of how gene editing works, there are more succinct and helpful explanations online. Once Doudna and Sternberg dispense with the agonizing science, the most useful part of the book begins, which is Doudna’s personal hopes and fears about her field.

A major concern about gene editing is that a change introduced into one organism today can also change that organism’s descendants.

If we make a mistake, we make heritable mistakes.

The technology offers us the opportunity not only to wipe out disease but to create human being with stronger bones, more pleasant-smelling armpits and a decreased need for sleep. It also allows us, via gene changes that cause sterilization, to wipe out species. The technology asks, “Do we really need mosquitoes?” and we may think not, until we start thinking about people in other countries who may wonder, “Do we really need Americans?” Douda writes that in 2014 she dreamed that Adolf Hitler sat before her and said, “I want to understand the uses and implications of this amazing technology you’ve developed.”

Pollsters have found that Americans are roughly evenly divided on whether scientists should be able to use gene editing to reduce disease if the change is heritable, a process called “germline” editing. In the end, it may not matter what ordinary Americans think; scientists are not waiting for us to get comfortable with the idea, arguing that, as one bioethicist wrote, “gene editing is not an option, it is a moral necessity.”

It’s reassuring to know that the great brains that have enabled “the unthinkable power to control evolution” are thinking deeply about what they have wrought, and how gene editing can be harnessed for good, not for evil. It would be nice if they could explain, in language accessible to the non-scientific public, how we got here. A Crack in Creation tries, but fails to let that light in. C — Jennifer Graham

POP CULTURE FILM REVIEWS BY AMY DIAZ

The Lego Ninjago Movie (PG)

A teenage ninja protects the city of Ninjago from his warlord father in The Lego Ninjago Movie, another visually delightful Lego animated movie.

Which Wikipedia says is based on a line of toys, and also a TV show or something?

Don’t worry, you don’t need prior knowledge of this universe to have fun here.

Lloyd (voice of Dave Franco) doesn’t like high school. It is, as he tells his mom (voice of Olivia Munn), very judgy and, as the son of supervillain Garmadon (voice of Justin Theroux), Lloyd has a hard time making friends or getting people to sit near him on the bus or just not being hated. Luckily, he has a group of friends with whom he can dress up as ninjas and periodically save the city from Garmadon. When he’s in disguise with these friends — Kai (voice of Michael Peña), Jay (voice of Kumail Nanjiani), Nya (voice of Abbi Jacobson), Zane (voice of Zach Woods) and Cole (Fred Armisen) — Lloyd is known as the Green Ninja and is beloved for saving Ninjago from Garmadon’s attacks.

Of course, these ninja battles for Ninjago also seem to be a little bit about Lloyd’s attempt to get his father’s attention. The ninjas’ mentor Master Wu (Jackie Chan), who is also Lloyd’s uncle and Garmadon’s brother, attempts to get Lloyd to have patience when it comes to dealing with his father. But Lloyd says he’s eager to definitively defeat Garmadon. During one of the regular ninjavs.-Garmadon battles, Lloyd pulls out what Master Wu calls the “ultimate weapon,” one Lloyd isn’t yet prepared to use. When Lloyd does use it, he learns that the weapon has the power of indiscriminate destruction, and he inadvertently tips the battle to Garmadon’s advantage. (The “weapon” is an example of how the movie’s creators do a good job thinking about their world in terms of both its internal logic and its relationship to our world. And it’s adorable.)

To rescue Ninjago, the ninjas must go on a quest to find an even-more-ultimate weapon. But after Master Wu is lost, Garmadon, who has followed them, becomes the only ninja master capable of leading through a bunch of very questy perils. Garmadon and Lloyd bicker and gain some small measure of understanding and just generally have the relationship you expect a black-costumed villain and white-costumed superhero to have when they are also father and son.

Writing this about two days after seeing The Lego Ninjago Movie, I remember that I liked it and generally found it fun and enjoyable but I can’t exactly remember why I liked it. It isn’t as revolutionary as the first The Lego Movie or as specific in its viewpoint as The Lego Batman Movie. But

The Lego Ninjago Movie

it was enjoyable. There is something great about the way these animated Lego pieces have scratches and chips — a real-seeming physical existence. Their little cup-hands can be used as a joke and yet the Lego people still have believable personalities. And I liked the cornball live-action part of this movie that bookends the Lego action. It was very The NeverEnding Story in a way I found rather charming (and Jackie Chan, who appears as a human person as well as lending his voice to a Lego person, is good at being corny and charming).

The central story — the Star Warsian evil-dad/good-kid thing, the “you are not a Jedi yet” Lloyd learning his ninja craft part, the idea that great power comes with a price — is all stuff you’ve seen before but it is well-presented. The movie also nicely balanced the kid-friendly humor with jokes that adults would get (I would say midelementary school seemed where the kid adventure was aimed).

So what makes it feel like a little less than the previous Lego movies? I suppose that it doesn’t build on anything those movies did, visually or storytelling-wise. It has less staying power — I think my admiration for The Lego Movie grew the more I thought about it. With Ninjago, the movie just sort of dissipated after it was over, I was just generally left with the sense that I saw a pleasant movie.

“Pleasant” is not the stuff of Oscar wins, but The Lego Ninjago Movie is fun — even laugh-out-loud funny at moments — and well-acted, even if its cast isn’t quite the home run of the first Lego movie. You might not spend the next month telling everybody how wonderful it was but you will have a perfectly lovely time while you watch it. B+ Rated PG for mild action and rude humor. Directed by Charlie Bean, Paul Fisher and Bob Logan with a screenplay

by Bob Logan & Paul Fisher & William Wheeler & Tom Wheeler and Jared Stern & John Whittington, The Lego Ninjago Movie is an hour and 41 minutes long and distributed by Warner Bros.

Kingsman: The Golden Circle (R)

The well-dressed, non-governmentaffiliated spy service the Kingsman suits up to fight another supervillain in Kingsman: The Golden Circle, a sequel to the 2014 comic book adaptation.

Eggsy (Taron Egerton), who took his late mentor Harry Hart (Colin Firth) a.k.a.

Galahad’s code name, is now a full-fledged Kingsman, doing James Bondy stuff for the world-saving secret organization. He lives with girlfriend Princess Tilde (Hanna Alström), whom Eggsy rescued in the last movie. When ex-Kingsman recruit Charlie (Edward Holcroft) and goons attempt to kidnap Eggsy, he defeats them, even though Charlie now has a superstrong bionic arm. What Eggsy couldn’t anticipate was that that arm, detached during their fight, could help Charlie’s new boss, international drug kingpin Poppy (Julianne Moore), hack into the Kingsman computers.

Poppy uses this information to blow up the Kingsman headquarters and kill all agents at other Kingsman outposts. Harry, out with Tilde on the night of the attack, soon finds himself and Kingsman tech-guy Merlin (Mark Strong) the only surviving members of the organization. In the group’s special “doomsday” locker they find a clue pointing them to where to turn in case of emergency: a bottle of Statesman Whiskey, made in Kentucky.

The duo travel to the U.S., sneak into a suspiciously well-protected building at the distillery and soon find themselves captured by Statesman agent Tequila (Channing Tatum). Eventually, Ginger Ale (Halle Berry), essentially the Merlin of the U.S.-based government-unaffiliated spy service Statesman, identifies them as allies and offers to help them figure out who took down their organization. Clues include a strange 24-karat gold circle tattoo on all of the felled henchmen found after the Charlie-Eggsy fight.

The Statesman group has something else of interest to the Kingsman, as the trailers

and movie posters have already spoiled: Harry Hart, missing an eye after the headshot presumed to have killed him in the first movie but otherwise fine. Fine, physically, that is. Harry is suffering from amnesia and has forgotten everything about his adult life except for an early interest in studying butterflies. Soon, the three remaining Kingsman plus Statesman agent Whiskey (Pedro Pascal) set off to find Poppy and foil her villainous plan.

Poppy’s plan is actually one of the more interesting facets of the movie: supplier of much of the world’s illegal drugs, Poppy has poisoned them with a fatal virus. Millions of people around the globe now face certain death unless, as she explains to the American president (Bruce Greenwood, doing a generic Southern-accented villain), he signs an order to make all drugs legal (and taxable!) and she’s given a complete pardon.

This sets up an interesting question for the characters: how does the world view drug users (addicts, recreational users, people who, like a presidential staffer played by Emily Watson, self-medicate)? As people in need of care or as law-breakers who don’t deserve sympathy? It’s kind of a big idea for a movie that is, in so many other ways, a live-action cartoon. I wish this movie earned this plot a little better. There is something very smart about the way the movie makes the villain not just the person endangering the lives of millions but also the authorities who don’t want to save them.

The Golden Circle, though it has some good qualities, is not good enough to be even the loose fun of the first movie.

Strong and Firth are having a good time and Egerton is actually quite solid as this kind of comic-book-y secret agent. But Pascal is not well cast and there isn’t nearly enough Tatum in this movie — trailers make him seem central to the action but in reality he’s barely a part of the story. Pascal doesn’t carry off the action plus comedy needed here but that exact mix is basically Tatum’s brand.

The movie doesn’t feel as sharp as the first movie. While the Eggsy-Harry relationship and even the Eggsy-Tilde relationship feel well-drawn, so much else — everything about the Statesman, Poppy, her plan, why there needs to be a Charlie character at all — feels half-finished. C+ Rated R for sequences of strong violence, drug content, language throughout and some sensual material. Directed by Matthew Vaughn with a screenplay by Jane Goldman & Matthew Vaughn, Kingsman: The Golden Circle is two hours and 21 minutes long and distributed by 20th Century Fox.

A second British Invasion hit America’s shores in the early 1970s, as prog rock came full flower. Bands like Genesis, Yes and Jethro Tull forged a new path, marrying psychedelia, blues-rock and jazz to loftier themes, featuring complex time signatures and album-length songs.

Wishbone Ash was one of the groups riding this wave. Formed via the machinations of uber manager Miles Copeland, it featured the twin guitar playing of Ted Turner and Andy Powell, a unique sound that arguably informed some of the decade’s most memorable songs. Thin Lizzy’s “Boys Are Back in Town” and “Reelin’ In the Years”

by Steely Dan are two examples; The Eagles’ “Hotel California” is another.

“Those bands definitely copped a little bit from Wishbone Ash,” Powell said in a recent phone interview, though he allowed that his group didn’t invent the approach.

“The Allmans [were] the pre-eminent ones ... but their harmony structure is, dare I say, simplistic. They mostly stick to thirds and fifths, where we made the bass work against the guitars in a contrapuntal way.”

The four-piece group broke through in the States with their third album, 1972’s Argus.

Steeped in medieval mythology and religious themes, it came at just the right time.

“After playing theaters and clubs in Britain, we started to expand,” Powell said.

“We came over to this country and were playing big venues. We realized we needed to simplify the music to get it across ... but we also needed these grandiose-type themes. Those venues demanded the music change.”

At that point, Powell said, “it all came together.” Around the same time, Wishbone Ash decided to move stateside and capitalize on their success; they chose Connecticut as a home base. Though many English expats went to California, the Eastern locale made sense.

“It’s close to New York and you can flit back to Europe quite easily,” Powell said.

He said that, along with quick access to New York City and Miami studios, the vibe better suited them.

“It was cooler to be in a place that wasn’t Wishbone Ash When: Friday, Sept. 29, 8 p.m.

so radically different,” he said. “L.A. could have spun out of control. ... That was the crazier side of rock ’n’ roll; I thought we were a bit more rootsier.”

Forty-plus years later, Powell is still in New England, pressing on as the last original member of Wishbone Ash. He leads a youngish quartet that includes bassist Bob Skeat, drummer Joe Crabtree and Mark Abrahams on guitar. Abrahams only recently joined, the latest in a long line of second guitarists — a circumstance that Powell celebrates.

“It’s like having a guitar lesson every night, because they all bring something to the table — some are more melodic, some more muscular players, some are more rhythmic, some more bluesy,” he said of the many accompanists he’s worked with. “In Mark’s case, he’s going to be very intriguing. He’s actually grown up with the music of the band; his father is a huge fan, and Mark heard his first Wishbone Ash song when he was 9.”

They band tours relentlessly, logging hundreds of shows a year; a deep catalog keeps each night fresh.

“Half the set can vary,” Powell said.

“Sometimes we’ll have a guest performer. ... in Germany next year we’re going to have a couple of backup singers, and we’ve

had percussionists with us. Those kind of things keep it fresh, but you’ve always got to play songs that people are familiar with it, and I’m grateful for it. I don’t fight that, to be honest.”

The current tour includes an unplugged set. Stripping down a familiar song often reveals something new, Powell said.

“We wrote the Argus album on acoustic guitars ... in my little apartment in London,” he said.

After weeks of working like this, they moved to a proper studio and electrified their creation.

ANDY POWELL “Now, it’s actually the other way around; then, we took it from acoustic to electric, but now we’ll be stripping them back down again.”

A late September stop at Tupelo Music Hall is an always enjoyed annual trip for Powell.

“As I go north to Vermont or New Hampshire, I always get more of a feeling of English-ness in America, if that makes sense. There’s something about the audiences up there that reminds me a lot of the U.K.,” he said. “They are clued in ... very warm and accepting. They understand what we are trying to put over, so it’s very comfortable. I’m not patronizing when I say that; it’s just how I feel.”

[New Hampshire audiences] are clued in ... very warm and accepting. ... It’s very comfortable.

when a woman on What Not to Wear goes clothes shopping after her first talk with the stylists and is like, “Oh! They want me to be more trendy, so I’m going to get high-waisted velvet skinny jeans, sneaker wedges, a combination of seventy-two rings, a silk top with cutouts that is layered over a gray cashmere sweater, and a yarmulke on top of a fedora.”

LOL. WUT. You are doing the most when doing 75 percent less would be 200 percent much more appreciated. And at liberal arts schools, people want to be so bold and so complex that they want to tackle every single hot-button issue at once instead of just tackling one thing really well. Tackle one thing really well.

Gemini (May 21 – June 20) OK, there’s one teensy tiny difference between Ms. [Naomi] Campbell and me. She’s a supermodel.

I, on the other hand, am a supermodel in the way that a McDonald’s salad is a salad. Celebrate your differences.

Cancer (June 21 – July 22) It’s frustrating how something as simple as a quick trip to the supermarket can turn into an impromptu seminar about the history of black hair, during which I’m supposed to clarify where [I stand] in the #TeamNatural vs. #TeamRelaxer debate, discuss how I think black/white relations are going in America, and admit that if I was less defensive about my hair being touched, racism might be solved in an hour. Try not to complicate things.

Leo (July 23 – Aug. 22) Getting pissed that someone is slowing me down — don’t they know I have somewhere to be?! — instead of getting mad at myself for not leaving home ten minutes earlier is not only ridiculous but also very New York. Leave extra time.

Virgo (Aug. 23 – Sept. 22) Everyone I know here is a nanny-singer-WebMD doctor-cat whisperer-actor-paralegal-bartender hybrid.

To make it in New York, you need seventeen jobs. It’ll be good to have more than one skill.

All quotes are from You Can’t Touch My Hair: And Other Things I Still Have to Explain,

by Phoebe Robinson, born Sept. 28, 1984.

Libra (Sept. 23 – Oct. 22) Explaining your life to a world that doesn’t care to listen is often more draining than living in it. Let someone else do the explaining.

Scorpio (Oct. 23 – Nov. 21) Similar to how some white people watched The Wire and felt as though they knew everything about urban life, many white peeps believed they had black hair all figured out after viewing [Chris] Rock’s 2009 documentary [Good Hair]. There’s always more to learn.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22 – Dec. 21) Rightclick and send to Trash all the women who say they’re a Carrie. Even if the woman who says this is Nobel Peace Prize laureate Malala Yousafzai one of the most important activists of our time. No one is a Carrie. I repeat, NO ONE IS A CARRIE. And why would anyone want to be? Who do you want to be?

Capricorn (Dec. 22 – Jan. 19) Outside of skin color, nappy hair is probably the biggest inyour-face reminder of blackness, of Otherness.

And in case you haven’t noticed, people have historically not handled “Otherness” well. It’s a good time to get to know some others.

Aquarius (Jan. 20 – Feb. 18) My parents have an entire room dedicated to the sorting, washing, drying, and folding of laundry, and the place smells like dryer sheets and childhood. It’s laundry time.

Pisces (Feb. 19 – March 20) Yep. I truly thought my hair was why I wasn’t special, and why I didn’t have a date to the junior prom.

It’s not.

Aries (March 21 – April 19) I should have spoken up, but I didn’t, because on some level, I still cared what they thought of me, even though they clearly didn’t think much about my feelings. Don’t do that.

Taurus (April 20 – May 20) Kinda like

Ewwwww!

Forget the horrifying clown from It. The newest inhabitant of your nightmares is a giant “fatberg” in the sewer system beneath the streets of London. A fatberg is created by a buildup of fat and grease combined with used diapers, sanitary napkins and wipes. This one is almost the length of three football fields and weighs more than 140 tons. Matt Rimmer with London’s Thames Water said the current glob is “a total monster and is taking a lot of manpower and machinery to remove, as it’s set hard.” He said it’s basically like trying to break up concrete. [Metro News, 9/12/2017]

Wait, what?

Entrepreneur Miki Argawal, 38, of Brooklyn, New York, was a hit at this year’s Burning Man gathering in Nevada, where she pumped breast milk and offered it to fellow attendees to help with hangovers or use in lattes. She even tried some herself, saying it tasted a bit like coconut milk. She estimated that 30 to 40 people tried her milk. “The fact that any part of that could be seen as taboo ... it’s time that conversation changes,” Argawal said.

Terror suspect and Uber driver Mohiussunnath Chowdhury, 26, of Luton, England, was detained in London on Aug. 25 after using his navigation program to direct him to Windsor Castle. But the technology led him astray, and he pulled up outside The Windsor Castle pub in Windsor. After realizing his mistake, Chowdhury headed for London, where he parked his car next to a marked police van outside Buckingham Palace, brandished a 4-foot-long sword and yelled “Allahu Akbar.” Chowdhury was charged in the Westminster Magistrates Court with one count of preparing to commit an act or acts of terrorism.

An unnamed man in Plymouth, Minnesota, went to extraordinary lengths and wasted two days of police investigators’ time just to get a few days away from his wife, police Sgt. Keith Bird said. The woman reported her 34-year-old husband missing on Aug. 28 and showed police a text from him saying he had been kidnapped.

The kidnapper demanded a paltry $140 for his return, and the wife agreed, but the kidnapper said she could wait for the husband to receive his paycheck. Eventually police caught up with the husband, who insisted he had indeed been kidnapped but asked officers to stop investigating. “He’s fine,” said Sgt. Bird. [Minneapolis Star-Tribune, 9/2/2017]

He planted the maze last spring using a GPS device, and it was scheduled to open in early September. “I’ve always been a Star Wars fan and I just wanted to pay tribute to Carrie Fisher,” Goebel said. [Evansville Courier & Press, 9/6/2017]

Sweet revenge

In Santa Fe, New Mexico, tens of thousands of people gathered at a city park on the evening of Sept. 1 to revel in the burning of the effigy Zozobra, a six-story monkey puppet filled with handwritten notes about anxieties and problems they hoped to send up in smoke. Locals dropped their notes in a “gloom box” at a shopping center, with subjects ranging from an ill family member to hurricane victims to government corruption. The tradition began in 1924.

After arguing with a security guard about the high price of parking, a woman in Benxi, Liaoning Province, China, left her car in front of the entrance gate to a housing community on Aug. 22. But people have to get in and out, so a crane was employed to lift the car onto the roof of the security building next to the gate.

Onlookers can be heard laughing in a video of the incident. The car was later lowered to the ground using the crane. [United Press International, 8/23/2017]

Unusual hobbies

• British tree surgeon Gary Blackburn, 53, moved to Germany 32 years ago but holds a soft spot for Britain. So when the Brexit vote passed last year, “I decided to make my own little Britain here in Germany,” Blackburn said from his home in Kretzhaus. His exhibition includes a demilitarized Centurion tank (decorated with poppies and white doves, to symbolize peace), red telephone boxes and a life-size model of Queen Elizabeth. Neighbors have complained about the tank parked on his lawn, but so far officials have not demanded that Blackburn remove it.

Errant butt-dials

The New York court system’s former spokesman David Bookstaver, 59, is under investigation after accidentally admitting to a New York Post reporter in August that he “barely shows up to work.” The incident happened after Bookstaver had talked with the reporter on his cell phone. Without realizing it, Bookstaver redialed the reporter’s number, and the reporter listened in as Bookstaver talked with two other people about how little he works. The court system’s inspector general is working with the district attorney’s office on an inquiry, and two county officials are calling for Bookstaver to repay $149,900 of the “ill-gotten” taxpayer money.
