In late summer 2008, wearing an Elvis T-shirt, I headed to the Minneapolis Hilton, where I would be staying along with the rest of the New Hampshire delegation to the National Republican Convention. As I approached the front door I was surprised to see that there were security guards everywhere. I was immediately stopped and asked for identification to ensure that someone wearing an Elvis shirt was supposed to be there.

What I didn’t realize was that the New Hampshire delegation would be staying at McCain headquarters. This was not a coincidence. John McCain loved New Hampshire and New Hampshire loved John McCain.

In the 2000 New Hampshire primary, John McCain, in a huge upset, defeated George W. Bush, 48.5 percent to 30.4 percent. During the New Hampshire campaign, McCain used to love saying that when he began the race polls had him at 3 percent with a margin of error of plus or minus 5 percent which meant that he could’ve started at -2 percent.

But the 2000 McCain campaign caught on like wildfire in the Granite State. My family had the great honor and privilege of having Sen. McCain at our home.

We squeezed nearly 200 people into the house. Those lucky enough to have been there still talk about it.

I was part of the New Hampshire team in 2000 that followed McCain to South Carolina to lend a hand in helping to continue the momentum. But things were very different in South Carolina and McCain did not carry the state. As we all know, George W. Bush won the 2000 Republican nomination and the presidency.

In 2008, Senator McCain once again entered the New Hampshire primary, and once again he won, defeating Massachusetts neighbor and Winnipesaukee homeowner Mitt Romney. New Hampshire gave John McCain two amazing presidential primary wins, so it is not a surprise that, next to his home state of Arizona, New Hampshire was John McCain’s favorite state.

That is why important things in New Hampshire should be named after John McCain. It will speak volumes about our citizens and our first-in-the-nation status.

Maybe a highway, maybe a mountain, maybe a school. So who will be first?

NEWS & NOTES

Prep school abuse Phillips Exeter Academy, a private coed high school in Exeter, released a report detailing several past misconduct allegations made against faculty and staff members. The school hired the law firm of Holland & Knight in April 2016 to investigate 28 cases, 26 of which involved sexual abuse of students between the 1950s and the 2010s. The remaining two allegations accuse faculty of failing to prevent instances of abuse. After approximately 294 interviews of over 170 individuals and thousands of pages of relevant documents and materials, the firm confirmed nearly a dozen incidents of sexual misconduct and “inappropriate attention to boundaries in the form of physical touching of students.” The firm also found that in a number of situations, school employees “failed in their responsibilities to address alleged misconduct impacting the health, safety and welfare of students in a proper and effective manner.” In the report, the school expressed “gratitude to the individuals who took the time and care to speak with us” and said their participation “would contribute to the betterment of [Phillips Exeter Academy].”

Substance use funding Sens. Jeanne Shaheen and Maggie Hassan announced that New Hampshire will receive about $1.8 million from the Office of National Drug Control Policy. Funding will support 12 local drug prevention coalitions to prevent youth substance use. This funding includes new $125,000 grants for the Nashua Prevention Coalition and Community Action for Safe Teens serving the Souhegan Valley, as well as continued $125,000 grants for Merrimack Safeguard; Raymond Coalition for Youth; Southern Rockingham Coalition of Youth Prevention of Marijuana and Prescription Drug Abuse Project in Kingston; and the Franklin Mayor’s Drug and Alcohol Abuse Task Force. In a statement, Sen. Shaheen said, “Educating our children about substance use prevention is a key component to combating the opioid

epidemic. … Substance use disorders can start at an early age, and these programs have demonstrated success with middle school and high school youth.”

The New Hampshire Army National Guard opened its new field maintenance shop in Hooksett last week, according to a Facebook post from the agency. The $10 million facility includes a 27,200-square-foot field CONCORD maintenance building and a 2,435-square-foot storage shed.

The New Hampshire Division of Public Health Services will continue to investigate an outbreak of Legionnaires’ Disease in Hampton. A total of 14 people have been confirmed to have the disease, a potentially serious bacterial pneumonia.

One elderly adult died due to complications related to the disease. The majority of the victims live or were staying on Ashworth Avenue in Hampton.

As a precautionary measure, the division closed hot tub spas at the Sands Hotel and the Harris Sea Ranch Motel; initial tests conducted by the CDC detected the bacteria from multiple sources within the resort’s water system, including the hot tub spa.

Steps of support

New walkathon supports deaf community

By Scott Murphy

smurphy@hippopress.com

9/21/18.

122696

Concord High School sophomore Grace Leonard is deaf in one ear and hard of hearing in the other — but that hasn’t kept her from playing varsity field hockey and lacrosse, or being part of a student leadership program called Foundations of Character and Leadership. And it didn’t stop her from creating the first annual NH Hears Walkathon with some help from her dad, Kevin.

The event, which will support services for New Hampshire’s deaf and hard of hearing population, will be held on Sunday, Sept. 16, at 11 a.m. starting in Rollins Park (116 Broadway St., Concord).

“I thought a family-friendly walkathon would be the best way to bring the most people together, because hearing loss crosses cultural, social, economic and generational lines,” said Leonard, who noted that she’s had to work through daily challenges, such as understanding her teachers in school, locating sounds while playing sports or dealing with background noise in a restaurant. “People can expect a fun event that will bring people together to show support for family and friends with hearing loss.”

Breaking down barriers

122785

Proceeds from the walkathon will benefit Northeast Deaf and Hard of Hearing Services in Concord. The nonprofit offers a variety of educational and support services to provide equal access and opportunity for the state’s deaf and hard of hearing community, as well as other populations of people who require assistance to communicate. Specifically, the money raised will benefit the organization’s Education and Resource Center, which supports New Hampshire’s families, organizations, schools and agencies in order to ensure ideal services and accessibility for children who are deaf or hard of hearing.

Since the nonprofit launched in 2001, the staff has grown from just Executive Director Susan Wolf-Downes to a group ranging from nine to 14 employees throughout the year. Beyond the general struggles of starting a new organization, Wolf-Downes said she and her employees have worked to raise awareness and support for a community that had been largely underserved. She described Northeast Deaf and Hard of Hearing Services as New Hampshire’s “one stop resource for deaf and hard of hearing individuals, their families and friends.”

Though the nonprofit offers services to individuals of all ages, a particular emphasis is placed on supporting children and families during key developmental years.

school growing up, and she said the ability to socialize with peers who also were identified with hearing loss was invaluable.

“Deaf people want to be able to relate to one another,” said Wolf-Downes, who had a sign language interpreter during the interview.

“Socializing with friends is an important part of life, and it can be lonely being the only deaf child in a school with 500 students. This is what is happening in New Hampshire. You will often find school districts with only one child who is deaf or hard of hearing where they do not have similar peers.”

Central services in a rural state

One of the challenges the nonprofit faces is New Hampshire’s lack of a centralized educational organization that coordinates assistance for deaf and hard of hearing students in the state’s school districts. Though Wolf-Downes believes a shift to a centralized model is on the horizon, the nonprofit now focuses on providing as much assistance as it can at each stage of a child’s transition into the public school system.

The organization’s Education and Resource Center collaborates with the state’s division of Family-Centered Early Supports and Services and other service agencies across the state to support families and their deaf or hard of hearing children from when they are identified as being deaf or hard of hearing until they’re three years old. However, once they transition into preschool and kindergarten, the 8

Being Unique in every way is

Beginning next year, New Hampshire residents will start seeing a unique vehicle soaring over the greater Nashua area. Terrafugia in Woburn, Mass., is now leasing 6,700 square feet of hangar and office space at Nashua Airport at Boire Field, where the company will test its first flying car.

Nashua Airport is a hub for a variety of aviation activities, including training, charter, corporate, military and recreational flights.

Additionally, the airport property houses several businesses offering various aviationrelated and industrial services.

“We are excited to host Terrafugia’s prototypes and production vehicles,” airport manager Chris Lynch wrote in a statement.

“This partnership is bringing the latest innovation in aviation to Nashua while providing a location for the company to upgrade its testing efforts.”

Lynch did not respond to interview requests.

Terrafugia has spent the last 12 years developing what it claims to be the “world’s first practical flying car.” Dubbed the “Transition,” the company’s current prototype is a two-seat automobile-aircraft hybrid. The vehicle’s wings fold and unfold and allow it to convert between flight and drive modes in under a minute. The Transition runs on regular gas and can fit in the average homeowner’s garage.

Several different prototypes of the Transition are being designed for testing at the airport according to Danielle Kershner, marketing manager of Terrafugia. She added that the vehicle’s design has to comply with both Federal Motor Vehicle safety standards as well as safety requirements established by the Federal Aviation Administration. Current prototypes of the Transition were designed specifically for crash and flight testing.

Though Nashua is right across the Massachusetts border, the Gate City is still about 45 6

in its own respect.

organization is focused on assisting schools with developing Individualized Education Programs to fit students’ needs.

“During this transition, the whole team working with a child typically changes as they go through the process of determining eligibility for special education services,” said Pamela Lovejoy, the center’s deaf and hard of hearing early intervention specialist and teacher of the deaf. “In a short period of time, kids go from working in a home-based, family-centered environment to being in a student-centered environment.”

Both Lovejoy and Wolf-Downes said ensuring a smooth transition and effective

minutes away from Woburn, Mass. Despite the distance, Kershner said Terrafugia vetted many airports and decided Nashua Airport offered all the amenities Terrafugia needed.

“It was important to find a partner that had the right amount of hangar space, allowed us to flight test and drive test and also was relatively close,” said Kershner. “Nashua hit all those checkboxes and provided us with a hangar and office space to set up operations in line with our needs.”

Terrafugia’s hangar at the airport could house up to eight prototypes and production vehicles once the company kicks its operations into gear in Nashua. Additionally, its office space will host six to 10 employees, including flight test engineers, test pilots and marketing personnel. Eventually, the facility could be used for flight training.

“Years ago we would test our aircraft at an airport and sit hunched over our laptops in a truck on the tarmac,” wrote Terrafugia test pilot Phil Meteer in a statement. “This next chapter for Terrafugia includes facility upgrades to host several aircraft where we can perform testing on an array of prototypes and production aircraft simultaneously as we ramp up operations.”

Kershner said the company is currently outfitting the hangar and office space and anticipates the first Transition vehicle make its way to Nashua in early 2019. Production of the vehicle is expected to start next year as well.

early development is important, especially in a rural state like New Hampshire. WolfDownes said there are larger deaf and hard of hearing populations in cities like Concord, Manchester, Nashua and Portsmouth, due to a broader network of support services for work, education and transportation being available within an immediate or commutable distance. But the nonprofit works with deaf and hard of hearing people across the state in a variety of settings.

“In rural areas, it can be very isolating to be deaf or hard of hearing,” said Wolf-Downes.

“We provide services that help people break down barriers and make their lives better.”

New general in town State appoints top appellate lawyer

In August, Daniel Will was sworn in as New Hampshire’s first solicitor general. Gov. Chris Sununu signed SB 390 earlier this year to create the position, which will oversee and coordinate the state’s appeals process for cases heard in state and federal courts. Will was hired by Devine Millimet & Branch of Manchester in 1997 and became a shareholder in 2003.

How has your experience prepared you to take on this role?

I spent 21 years at Devine Millimet, where I was lucky enough to have a pretty significant volume of appeals over the years in my practice. I’ve always loved writing briefs and arguing appeals. I also had the opportunity to chair the firm’s litigation department and serve as a member of the board of directors, which provided me with experience on the management side. I’m excited to bring that experience to this new position.

What does a Solicitor General do, and why is it important New Hampshire has one?

The Solicitor General’s office will be within the Attorney General’s office. We will be responsible for overseeing all appeals the state is involved with, which includes appeals in state and federal supreme courts. We will also look at decisions that have been delivered by lower courts and decide whether or not to appeal them. Additionally, we will keep an eye on cases and appeals making their way through other court systems that might affect New Hampshire. … Most states have [a Solicitor General], and I believe New Hampshire is the 40th state to adopt this position. The New Hampshire Attorney General’s office already had a group of very skilled and talented appellate lawyers, but I think Attorney General [Gordon] MacDonald saw an opportunity to pull them together under the Solicitor General’s auspices. … Attorney General McDonald reached out to me after the statute was passed, and now here I am.

From a curiosity standpoint, I’ve lately been interested in doing research on antique boats. ... Practically speaking, as August wanes and the onset of fall is upon us, we’ve been looking into getting our winter wood supply ready.

ed to be a part of that, and I hope to help the office better serve the people of our state.

What are some of the most important legal issues you’ll be overseeing on Daniel E Will behalf of New Hampshire?

Honestly, I’m just beginning to learn about all the different things the Attorney General’s office is involved in. I really can’t say specifically any particular issues I’ll be involved with, but I can tell you I’ll be involved in some way with any issue that concerns an appeal with the state. … My focus for the last 21 years has been primarily on my business litigation cases. I really do feel like I’m on a learning curve, which is going to be part of my process of transitioning over here.

You write in your bio that you live in and maintain a 200-year-old colonial home.

What’s that like?

Both my wife I were really hoping to live in a more rural setting to have space and some land, and we’ve always loved colonial architecture. We were really drawn to our house in Loudon because it has a lot of its original features. It still has its original timber frame held together by wooden pegs.

It’s amazing to think that we’re walking on the same floorboards people walked on 200 years ago, and we’re parking our cars in a barn that people used to put horses in. … I’ve also always gravitated toward old things. I cut a lot of firewood, and we burn wood in the winter which heats much of the house.

I sometimes use 40- or 50-year-old equipment when I’m working around the place. ... Of course, with an old home, the things that are amazing can also be frustrating at the same time. There’s always something to be done. We never look at the house and see there’s no projects left to do. … But if you think you like old houses, don’t be scared off — it isn’t really that bad. You just have to live with a little “undone-ness” from time to time. We view ourselves as stewards of a historic house that we can hopefully maintain for future generations.

NEWS & NOTES

QUALITY OF LIFE INDEX Hard-working state

New Hampshire was ranked as the sixth hardest working state in the country by WalletHub, ranking above every other state in the Northeast.

The Granite State ranked seventh for “direct work factors” (average work week hours, employment rate, etc.) and third for “indirect work factors (average commute time, workers with multiple jobs, etc.).

QOL Score: +1 Comment: Other than New Hampshire, New England was poorly represented in the top half of the list. The Granite State was trailed by Vermont (15), Maine (26), Massachusetts (35), Connecticut (36) and Rhode Island (49).

High mosquito virus risk

The New Hampshire Department of Health and Human Services raised the state’s West Nile Virus risk level to “high” after another batch of mosquitoes tested positive for the virus in Manchester last week, according to a news release. This was the seventh batch of mosquitoes to test positive this season and the fifth positive detection within just a week’s time. Dragon Mosquito Control in Brentwood sprayed cityowned property in Manchester last week.

QOL Score: -1 Comment: According to the department, individuals bitten by an infected mosquito may experience mild, flu-like symptoms including fever, muscle aches, headaches and fatigue. A very small percentage of people infected with the virus can develop serious central nervous system diseases like meningitis or encephalitis.

Regional wealth gaps

A report from the New Hampshire Fiscal Policy Institute found large regional differences related to higher-income residents and lower poverty rates. The study found that Rockingham and Hillsborough counties are home to 46 of the 65 municipalities in the state with a median household income above statewide levels, over 70 percent of such communities. By contrast, Coos County, the northernmost county in the state, and Cheshire County, the westernmost county in the state, have continued to struggle with declining populations and higher rates of poverty than statewide estimates.

QOL Score: -1 Comment: The high-concentration of people in the southeast contributes to this regional divide. According to the report, more than 50 percent of the overall state population lives in Rockingham and Hillsborough counties, more than the state’s remaining eight counties combined.

Lake bacteria persists

The New Hampshire Department of Environmental Services released a PSA cautioning swimmers about contact with cyanobacteria blooms in the state’s lakes and ponds. The department has issued dozens of cyanobacteria warnings this season and said it is likely that additional blooms will be discovered throughout the remainder of the summer and into the fall. Once a bloom occurs, there is no immediate remedy to make it go away. For updates to the list of lake warnings and advisories, visit des.nh.gov.

QOL Score: -1 Comment: According to the department, cyanobacteria can produce toxins that cause skin irritation, nausea, vomiting and diarrhea.

Short-term exposure can also result in tingling, burning or numbness sensations, and prolonged exposure can lead to liver or kidney problems.

QOL Score: 84 Net change: -2 QOL this week: 82 What’s affecting your Quality of Life here in New Hampshire?

Questions, questions, questions.

That is what I have for your New England Patriots as they get ready to strap it on to begin the season on Sunday after a tumultuous off-season, a season with more questions to be answered at the start than at any time since 2001, which was the last time they started a season 0-2.

Starting 0-2 is a possibility too, as they open with Ryan Griffin (of the Litchfield Griffins) and the Houston Texans. Then comes the rematch with mouthy Jalen Ramsey and his Jaguars in the searing Jacksonville heat. Given how lucky they were to survive the early season 2017 match-up with Houston when the D got shredded by rookie Deshaun Watson and knowing the Jags will want a piece of Brady and company after their last-minute playoff loss in January, it is a challenging start.

Starting 0-2 would fortify the claims of the many national pontificators joyfully saying the end may be descending on the dynasty. But, as we know, they are the Patriots and haven’t done what they’ve done under Coach B for almost 20 years by letting the outside stuff get to them.

History says they have the grit to grind in the worst of times and while they haven’t always won, name a time outside of 2009 when they haven’t battled it to the end. That dichotomy is what makes the questions surrounding their issues so interesting as the year gets underway.

So here are the questions to be answered as they go for their ninth straight AFC title game and third Super Bowl appearance in a row. We’ll start with potential distractions.

The Brady-Belichick Saga: They’re apparently like an old married couple who just irritate each other. Bill’s grating way gets on Brady’s nerves (and Gronk makes two) and he thinks after 19 years Coach B

should ease off. Though it sure did look like Brady was having fun on the sideline vs the G-Men. Anyway, Earth to Bill: Tom knows what he’s doing, ease up some.

Alex Guerrero: We don’t know the details, but two things are certain. Brady is very touchy about it and it ain’t going away until he answers the question. So Earth to Tom: Stop being a baby, come up with a good answer, tell the media you’ll answer it once and be done with it.

Pass Rush: The bend but don’t break Matt Patricia is gone as defensive coordinator and we’ll finally see if the maddening B-B-D-B stuff was his concoction or the bosses’. Talk all you want about Malcolm Butler, but putting zero pressure on Nick Foles had a lot more to do with losing the Super Bowl than Butler not playing. Put another way, Bill, how much more can Tom Brady do to save the defense from itself than throwing for 503 yards in the SB? If you need more than that you’ve got trouble. They have injury-prone Dont’a Hightower back along with new faces Adrian Clayborn and Derek Rivers; maybe that will help – but we’ll see. I know, I sound like a broken record.

Tom Brady’s Transition: TB-12 may make it to 45, but he’ll be less dominant as it happens. I hated not addressing their defensive issues in the draft, but I wonder if taking a guard/tackle Isaiah Wynn (now out for the year) and running back Sony Michel was the start of building an offense to eventually rely less Brady and more on a balanced attack. It’s a bit of an overstatement to say the running game has been mostly used to keep the pass rush off Brady’s back, but it will be interesting to see if it’s emphasized more than it has been in recent years.

Wide Receiver: They did not add much after losing clutch Danny Amendola and speedy Brandin Cooks so they are thin.

Thus we’ve been hearing comparisons to the Reche Caldwell-led 2006 group. But please, they still have Gronk, Julian Edel‑ man and Chris Hogan so this group is far

better. But depth is an issue while Edelman’s suspended to start the year and for when the injuries hit. But I suspect by the time you read this they’ll have added someone new after 1,184 guys around the league are cut on Saturday.

Protecting Brady’s Blindside: No disrespect to Nate Solder, a solid contributor for many years, but the price to keep him was far too great. The question is, can massive Trent Brown replace him after being a right tackle in San Francisco? Having never seen him play, I have no idea. At 6’8” and 380 pounds you know he’s got power, but does he have the quickness on the outside to keep Brady upright? Uber O-line coach Dante Scarnecchia working with him is a big plus – but we’ll see.

The Schedule: The pessimistic view is adding Miami, who they always seem to have one bad game against, to Houston and Jacksonville it could be a 1-3 start. The optimistic view is a split of the first two, then wins vs. Detroit and Miami to be 3-1 in September. After that, with Pittsburgh, Tennessee and the dreaded annual Miami trip on the road and Minnesota, KC and Green Bay at home, it seems tougher than recent years.

AFC East: The Bills have not-ready-forprime-time rookie Josh Allen at QB with the Ravens, Chargers, Vikings, Packers, Titans and Texans up first, so they could start 1-5. Given their schedule the Jets could hang around .500 the first 10 weeks, but unless Sam Darnold comes faster than I expect they’ll likely lose five of their last six. With a similar schedule, Miami could lead the division at mid-year, but with the tough part on the back end they should win just eight or nine.

Prediction: I see 11-5. Not bad for most everyone, but their worst since 2009. Good enough to win the AFC East, but home field throughout the playoffs or maybe even a Week 1 bye.

SPORTS DAVE LONG’S PEOPLE, PLACES & OTHER STUFF

Banner year for F-Cats The Big Story: While the New Hampshire Fisher Cats stumbled in the final week to finish second in East Division of the Eastern League they face the Trenton Thunder in the playoffs beginning Wednesday and Thursday in town. They also had league leaders in Harold Ramirez as the leading hitter at .320 shortstop Bo Bichette was the doubles leader with 43 and second baseman Cavan Biggio hit the most homers with 26 Jon Harris also was second in wins with 12.

Baseball 101: In July Mookie Betts became just the seventh Red Sox player to start three consecutive All-Star games. Name the other six.

Hot Ticket: It’s the home opener for the UNH football team on Saturday, Sept. 8, under the lights at Wildcat Stadium vs. Colgate. Game time is 6 p.m.

Queen City Golf Championship: Make it three for Dave Sherbourne in the Manchester City Golf Championship. The 2014 and 2015 winner added a third title by carding a three-day one-over-par score and a four-shot win over runner-up Austin Fox. Dan Arva‑ nitis finished third overall at 6 over to be the senior division winner.

The Numbers

2 – hits and walks allowed by Sox lefty Edu‑ ardo Rodriguez to go along with six strikeouts during a rehab start in Portland vs. the F-Cats at the start of the week won by the C-Dogs 12-6.

4 – goals scored by Dustin Wells in leading Bow to a 7-1 soccer win over Souhegan.

6 – players still in the run-

All-Time Record of the Week: It was set

by Red Sox No. 2 hitter Andrew Benintendi in their 12-hit, 11-run seventh inning during a 14-6 win over Miami on Wednesday, Aug. 29. As four players had multiple hits in the inning, he made the first out on a sacrifice and ended the carnage by grounding into an inning-ending double play to account for all three outs in the inning, a record that can never be broken, just tied.

Baseball 101 Answer: The six other Red Sox players to start three straight All-Star games are Ted Williams (three times), Yaz, Fred Lynn, Wade Boggs, Frank Malzone and David Ortiz.

On This Day - Sept. 6 of 1972 and 1996: There could not be two more different anniversaries to remember from this day in history. In 1972 it’s the tragedy of the Summer Olympics somberly resuming in Munich, Germany, following the massacre of 11 Israeli athletes by the Black September Arab terrorist organization.

Sports Glossary

Malcolm Butler: Dude who made the greatest play in Patriots history to save SB 49 vs.

Seattle. Now calls Nashville home after being mysteriously banished by Coach B from SB 52.

Sam Darnold: Third pick in the 2018 NFL draft out of USC and latest in the Jets’ never-ending search for a franchise QB that’s been going on since Joe Willie Namath left the building after 1976.

Jets’ Never-Ending QB Search: Started when fellow ’Bama star Richard Todd stepped in when Namath left for left coast glory followed by Ken O’Brien, Boomer Esiason, Neil Donoghue, Browning Nagle, Vinny Testaverde, Chad Pennington, Mark Sanchez, Geno Smith, Ryan Fitzpatrick and now Darnold. Good luck, Sammy.

Reche Caldwell: Maligned leader of the moribund Patriots 2006 receiving core. Hauled in 61 balls for 760 yards and four TDs from Brady, but the big indiscretion was dropping a wide open TD pass vs. Indy that would have put the AFC title game away. After getting 27 months in the slammer for drug possession with intent to distribute in 2015 it got worse after leaving NE. Jalen Ramsey: Deion Sanders wannabe DB for the defense that choked away the 2017 AFC Title game in a 14-point fourth-quarter barrage. Spent the off-season trashing the entire NFL. This week’s targets were Danny Amendola, who “scored those two fourth-quarter TDs and the giant punt return that set up the winning score — he’s terrible” and Gronk, “overrated.” Got it.

Erectile Dysfunction is Not A Sexual Death Sentence If you can’t stand the side effects of drugs like Viagra®, or you don’t want to take drugs to be able to enjoy intimacy, onset erectile dysfunction feels like being issued a sexual death sentence.

Let’s face it, erectile dysfunction can wreck your confidence, destroy your ego, damage your marriage, threaten a relationship and make you believe the best part of your life is over.

But it doesn’t have to be that way.

Over the last 15 years the Gold Standard Treatment in Europe, known as Pressure Wave Therapy, has helped hundreds of thousands reverse the symptoms of ED, reclaim their manhood and enjoy intimacy as often as they like, with no need for pills, needles or pumps. This therapy works well but we were not satisfied with these results alone. This is why we are the first in the nation to offer a combination therapy.

PRESSURE WAVE -STEM CELL INTEGRATION THERAPY is now available and results are pouring in.

John R. reports, “I’m 74 years old and had tried everything to get an erection. Nothing worked. I didn’t think anything could help me, until I tried this. Now I have the ability and the confidence to satisfy my wife in the bedroom.

Thank you for giving me my sex life back!”

Our success rate with these therapies is over 90 percent. The Pressure Wave-Stem Cell Integration Therapy helps remove plaque as it builds up in veins and arteries supplying blood to the penis, blood flow is restricted and you begin to lose your ability to get and maintain an erection.

Left unattended, the vascular infrastructure of your penis begins to collapse. Tissues, veins

and nerves shrivel up. Your penis shrinks. And part of what makes you a man fades away.

HOW PRESSURE WAVE -STEM CELL INTEGRATION THERAPY works and why it works so well...

Ninety percent of all ED is caused by restricted blood flow to the penis. That means the key to restoring normal, healthy function is to restore normal, healthy blood flow.

At our clinic, a male Registered Nurse performs a painless Doppler Ultrasound test to determine if blood flow is restricted and to what extent.

If a blockage is found and you are cleared for treatment, the Nurse uses a hand-held device to focus sound waves on veins and arteries with obstructed blood flow.

The waves move through tissue and 1) gently dissolve plaque that restricts blood flow; 2) activate your own stem cells that cause veins to regenerate and new blood vessels to grow and; 3) promote nerve growth that gives you greater sensitivity and more enjoyment.

The treatments take about 20 minutes. There are no known side-effects and no recovery time.

Umbilical Cord Stem Cells If your ED is mild to moderate, the Pressure Wave Therapy alone may solve your issues.

If it is more severe, the Stem Cell Integration Therapy will optimize your results. We use Umbilical Cord Stem Cells. They are proven to be highly angiogenic, meaning they create new blood flow and regenerate tissue like nothing we have ever seen.

Most men see significant improvement and are able to enjoy sex within three to five weeks.

Your next step is easy... Call now and return to intimacy without pills, needles, or pumps

ARTS In a jam

Manchester arts festival moves to Arms Park

By Angie Sykeny

asykeny@hippopress.com

With a new name and a new location, Art Jam Bridge Fest returns to the Queen City on Saturday, Sept. 8 — this time as Art Jam Riverside, located at Arms Park, along the Merrimack River.

Last year’s event was held on Bridge Street, but its success prompted organizers to find a bigger space to accommodate more fun and bigger crowds.

“It’s the same colorful event as last year, but doubled in size,” event coordinator Hannah Dempsey said. “It’s going to be jam-packed with art and music and dance.

There will be so much going on, it’s like a sensory overload.”

There will be more than 60 artists on site, including visual artists like painters, sculptors, fiber artists, potters, graffiti artists and others, and performance artists, such as aerialists, Japanese drum players and others.

“We call it the Art Jam because the idea is to expose people to all kinds of art. This isn’t your typical craft fair or art-in-thepark with people in sunhats,” said Bob Cox, general manager of 95.7 WZID, which organizes the event. “There will be traditional forms [of art] as well as aerialists and graffiti artists and different kinds of art that people may not have been exposed to before.”

The artists will not only display and sell their work, but also do live demonstrations

of their work and engage with attendees.

“There is a lot of interaction between the artists and vendors and the spectators,” Dempsey said. “You don’t really feel a separation between them. There’s a real community feel to it.”

Attendees can also participate in artsrelated activities, such as a chalk wall, where they can write what they are hopeful for, a paint-by-number community mural wall and a color run runway, where participants will get T-shirts to cover in color as they run through a burst of colored chalk.

A kids’ area will feature all kinds of lawn games, clowns and balloon art, henna and face paint, coloring book giveaways and more.

40 Art

There will be live music featuring a variety of genres on two stages by local musicians and bands including Blindspot, Donaher, Catfish Howl, A Different Engine, MB Padfield, Charlie Farren, Scott Plante and Andy Kiniry.

Grab lunch or a snack from one of the food trucks or food vendors on site, selling tacos, Kona Ice, hot dogs, mac and cheese, Mediterranean cuisine and more.

You can engage with the festival through social media by snapping a photo with the Art Jam Snapchat filter, or by participating in the Art Jam Photo Contest. For the contest, submit a photo that represents your original artistic expression on the event website anytime before the event. All pho-

tos will be displayed at the festival, and the person with the best photo will win a $200 Visa gift card.

Cox said Art Jam fulfills the need for a more hip and vibrant arts event in Manchester.

“We wanted to give artists a new way to get out there, in a space that is fun and bright and colorful, and to give people a chance to see art that they don’t usually get to see,” he said.

The event benefits Families in Transition and Hope for NH Recovery in their fight against the opioid epidemic in New Hampshire. Last year, the festival raised more than $23,000, which was used for treatment and recovery programs including counseling and therapy that focuses on helping people who are overcome by addiction to become healthy, independent and active members of the community.

“By raising money through the festival, it’s a lighter way to talk about a scary subject and to help the organizations that are involved in that fight,” Dempsey said.

Art Jam Riverside Where: Arms Park, 10 Arms St., Manchester When: Saturday, Sept. 8, 10 a.m. to 3 p.m.

Monarch Festival has butterfly fun for all

By Angie Sykeny

asykeny@hippopress.com

Celebrate the monarch butterfly during the sixth annual Monarch Festival at Petals in the Pines outdoor nature classroom in Canterbury on Saturday, Sept. 8. All day, there will be fun and educational butterflythemed activities for kids and adults.

“In recent years, the population of the monarch butterfly has dropped dramatically, from a billion to the low millions,” Petals in the Pines owner and butterfly educator Donna Miller said. “We started doing the festival to educate the public about what’s happening with monarch butterflies and to show people what they can do to protect them.”

Stop by the caterpillar rearing tent to see a monarch tagging demonstration, if any monarchs emerge that day. The tagging, sanctioned by the Monarch Watch program, is done to help record monarch butterfly activity as they migrate to Mexico.

“Hopefully, we’ll have butterflies in different stages for people to observe,” Miller said. “You never know what Mother Nature will give us, but if a butterfly hatches that day or I’m able to catch one with a net in the garden, we’ll do a tagging, so people can see how it’s done.”

There may be some more butterfly sightings in the Monarch Watch official Monarch Way Station, a garden filled with pollinator plants to attract monarch butterflies and give them a friendly place to stop on their way to Mexico.

“Anyone can have an official Way Station, so we’ll also be showing people how to create their own and get it registered,” Miller said. “Most people already have a lot of those pollinator plants at home.”

You can also look for butterfly eggs, chrysalises, caterpillars and butterflies in the Monarch Maternity Ward, a garden filled with milkweed, the plant on which monarch butterflies like to lay their eggs.

Kids can participate in butterfly and nature games, like a metamorphosis relay race.

“They hop around in a sack and then get

to wear wings and fly to Mexico,” Miller said. “It’s very cute.”

Kids can also make their own milkweed seed bombs to take home and plant to help monarch butterflies and give them a place to lay their eggs.

Take a selfie at the monarch photo booth, which features props like butterfly wings and antennas and signs that say things like “Protect the pollinators” and “Plant more milkweed.”

“Hopefully people will walk out of here inspired to do things different at home, to use less pesticides and let the wild flowers grow and plant more milkweed in their yard, so that we can help protect the monarch butterfly,” she said.

When traveling in France and England I have often admired the fruit trees that have been pruned and trained to stay low and follow a wall or building. Their branches, like the extended arms of a scarecrow, travel horizontally and are often loaded with fruit. I have wanted to try training a tree like this, a form called “espalier.” The word espalier is French, and comes from Italian meaning “something to rest the shoulder against.” It has come to mean not just the support, but the tree itself.

Trees in the espalier form are essentially two-dimensional. The branches are usually tied to wires or bamboo poles, often a foot or so in front of a wall. Branches growing toward or away from the wall are pruned off, as are most vertical branches. They save space and keep fruit low for easy picking. Walls protect the trees from high winds, and often reflect sunshine and heat to hasten ripening.

I was delighted to find an espalier apple tree for sale at Gardeners Supply Company in Lebanon, N.H. Someone had already done a lot of the work training it for me, though it had many small water sprouts (shoots) that needed to be cut away.

My tree stands about 6 feet tall and has three pairs of parallel horizontal branches.

Not only that, the branches are from three different varieties of apple: Zestar, Sweet 16 and Honeycrisp. That’s right, the branches were grafted on to the main stem, so if all goes well the tree will produce three flavors of fruit.

Soon after planting my tree I heard about a workshop on espalier techniques. Margaret Roach, a well-known author and blogger in upstate New York, was opening her gardens to the public through the Garden Conservancy and had asked Lee Reich, a well-known garden writer, to teach a class on espalier fruit trees. Lee is also the author or many books, including the best book on pruning that I have seen, The Pruning Book. Lee began by explaining how plant hormones control growth and fruiting. It is essential to understand this if you wish to create an espalier, or even to prune a fruit tree.

The tallest branch on a tree produces plant hormones called auxins that control growth, branching and flowering (and hence fruit production). If you cut off the tallest part of the tree, the apical tip, a tree is more likely to produce side branches, and these tend to be more fruitful and less vigorous. Vertical branches such as watersprouts rarely produce fruit.

They seem to want to grow fast and tall, competing with the leader, or tallest stem on the tree. In general, the horizontal branches of espalier trees should produce lots of fruit.

Lee Reich explained that some fruit trees

do better than others when creating an espalier tree. Asian pears do wonderfully and are almost always a success. But we are much farther south than England and northern France where espaliers do so well. Creating espalier is tougher for us. We can easily shape our trees in the form of espalier, but getting them to flower and fruit is tougher; our length of day is different.

There are apple trees that bear on fruit spurs, little gnarly branches just 2 or 3 inches long. Others produce fruit mainly on the tips of branches. Spur-type varieties are the best candidates for espalier. Macintosh is a spurtype apple, and there is one that is even better, MacSpur. Anything with “spur” in the name is good, according to Lee Reich. But other spur-type apples include Zestar, Red Delicious, Honeycrisp, Jonagold, Fuji, Jonathan, Chieftain and Winesap.

The tree I bought has no fruit spurs as yet.

And when I bought it, it had lots of watersprouts growing straight up. I was afraid to cut them all off now, as a tree needs leaves to support the roots, and to create the energy the plant needs in the spring to grow new leaves and flowers. According to Lee, an apple tree needs 40 leaves to bring an apple to maturity.

You can create an espalier starting from a whip, a simple bare-root plant with no side branches. Get one in the spring, plant it, and cut off the top third of the whip. That should stimulate it to set out at least two side branches in its first year. You can tie these to a bamboo, or along a horizontal wire. But in my opinion it is easiest to buy a tree that someone else has already shaped in the espalier form. Then all you have to do is cut off vertical sprouts, and keep the “arms” out to the sides.

Red currants and gooseberries work very well as espalier plants, according to Lee Reich. They are fast growing and flower well on horizontal branches. But not everyone is fond of their fruit. You can’t beat an apple.

I don’t know if my espalier will produce much fruit. But it is going to be fun trying to train it, and I look forward to winter when I will take off the rest of the vertical watersprouts that, right now, somewhat obscure the shape I’m hoping for.

Dear Donna, I’m interested in your thoughts; I played this violin from the age of 7 to 11. I’m almost 51 now and thought you may be able help with any information. What I know is that the violin is a Stradivarius, 23 inches in length and a sticker on the inside reads it was repaired by John G. Herrick from Weare N.H. in October 1915.

I’m not sure if the two mother of pearl inlaid bows are from the same period and if the case came with the instrument. Any information you may have would be greatly appreciated.

INSIDE/OUTSIDE CAR TALK

Driving more won’t extend truck’s life Dear Car Talk: While browsing cartalk.com recently (I had nothing better to do ...

I was at work), I came across a user’s comment that a vehicle that is driven less than 10

By Ray Magliozzi miles per outing is more likely to develop engine problems. I hate to sound like “the little old lady who only drives to church on Sunday,” but I live less than two miles from my office and tend to loaf around the house most of the weekend. So my 2001 Chevy S-10 extended-cab pickup doesn’t get much of a workout most of the time.

I love my little truck, and hope she lasts forever. I thought that by giving her such an easy life I was being good to her. Am I killing her with kindness? Do I need to take the long way to work once in a while or drive around aimlessly on evenings and weekends?

— Pony No, you’re doing fine, Pony. Your truck is 17 years old. I’d say whatever you’re doing, it’s working.

Cars and trucks wear out, primarily, from being used. When a car is in use, its pistons are scraping the cylinder walls, its suspension is getting banged around and its catalytic

converter is slowly disintegrating. So leaving your truck in the driveway is a pretty good plan for longevity.

Sure, there’s rust. There’s drying out of rubber hoses, belts and tires. But that stuff will happen over time whether you drive the vehicle or not. What the visitor’s comment on our website was probably referring to is moisture in the exhaust system. If you drive the car for two miles, the exhaust system might not get hot enough to evaporate the moisture that condenses in there (your car’s exhaust contains water vapor that condenses when it hits the cold exhaust pipe). That condensation, if it doesn’t evaporate, will cause the exhaust system to rust and corrode prematurely. But an exhaust system is small potatoes compared to an engine or a transmission.

You can also get moisture inside the engine on very short trips, but your oil is designed to hold moisture in suspension and protect the engine from corrosion. If that worries you, I’d switch to a synthetic oil, which will do a better job of holding moisture — and everything else. But you can’t drive your way to saving money.

Remember, the more you drive, the more gas you have to buy. The more you drive, the more frequently you have to change the oil and do maintenance and repairs. And worst

of all, the more you drive, the more likely you are to pass a Chevy dealership and end up dropping 35 grand on a 2019 Chevy Colorado.

Dear Car Talk: I’ve got a black 2004 Toyota Corolla. The last time I took it to the shop, my mechanic said my clutch was “a little sloppy.” He’s not one for long explanations, but I got the impression that meant I was getting close to needing a new one. What things can I do to keep a sloppy clutch “tidy” (i.e. last through grad school)? And how will I know when it needs replacing? Will there be a big bang or something? — Scott What your mechanic probably noticed, Scott, is that the clutch pedal is engaging near the top of its range. When the car was new, the clutch probably engaged when the pedal was about in the middle of its travel (halfway between the floor, and when it’s all the way up). Like the frog in the pot of water that’s slowly heating up (please don’t send hate mail, PETA friends, no frogs were harmed in the use of this metaphor), you haven’t noticed the change, because it changes by a microscopic amount every day.

Your Corolla has a self-adjusting clutch.

And as the clutch disc wears out, what you’ll

notice is that the engagement point of the pedal moves further and further from the floor. What your mechanic is telling you is that there’s not much adjustment room left and, at some point, you’ll need to replace the clutch. He’s probably licking his chops right now, poring over the Evinrude catalogue.

How will you know when your time is up? Well, eventually the friction material on the clutch disc will be completely gone, and when you let out the clutch, the car won’t move. Before that, you probably will notice some slipping. When you step on the gas, you may notice that the engine speed goes up, but the car doesn’t seem to be going any faster. This would be particularly noticeable when going up hills in high gear, on hard acceleration, or when carrying two or more mothers-in-law in the back seat. That’s your sign to start taking night classes and move up your graduation date.

And short of parking the car and not driving it, there’s not much you can do to extend the life of the clutch. If you drive well, and don’t “ride” the clutch (use a lot of gas and take a long time to engage each gear), you’re already doing what you can. Other than that, avoid stop-and-go traffic and hope you make it to graduation. Good luck, Scott.

With so many restaurants in the Queen City, Intown Manchester’s annual Taste of Downtown event is an easy way to discover dozens of them in the span of one evening.

The 15th annual event returns to downtown Manchester on Wednesday, Sept. 12, from 5 to 8 p.m., during which attendees receive a wristband and a map of all the restaurants on Elm Street and surrounding side streets taking part in the tasting. These can be picked up in the Brady Sullivan Plaza (1000 Elm St.) at the start of the event.

“That wristband allows you free samples of all of our participating businesses,” said Trixie Vazquez, development and community relations coordinator for Intown Manchester.

To make them easy to spot, each participating restaurant will have red balloons outside its front entrance, as well as an

event poster available for pickup. A wide variety of cuisines is represented, including Italian, Brazilian, Mexican, Japanese and Mediterranean, and according to Vazquez, it’s up to the restaurants what types of samples they want to serve and how they want to offer a unique eating or dining experience to event attendees.

“We work with the businesses to help them showcase their restaurants the best they can,” she said.

Past offerings have included samples of chicken farfalle pasta from Firefly American Bistro & Bar; shrimp skewers from Margaritas Mexican Restaurant; roasted fish and steak dishes from Hooked Seafood Restaurant and Ignite Bar & Grille. The event is all about introducing people to new local restaurants and foods they may not have known about in the area, and Vazquez said part of the fun is discovering what each restaurant is planning to serve this year.

New participants this year include the

recently opened 110 Grill on Elm Street, as well as Summer Pizza on Hanover Street, Vazquez said. She added that other Elm Street businesses like the Bookery will be hosting restaurants during the tasting.

In addition to the food, live acoustic performers are often featured at most street corners for the duration of the event, plus some local artists that will have their work on display.

The Taste of Downtown is a fundraiser for Intown Manchester, helping to raise money for its efforts to sidewalk cleaning, maintenance, graffiti removal and more.

Grape expectations Hollis Grape Festival returns

By Matt Ingersoll

mingersoll@hippopress.com

After a successful inaugural event last year that celebrated the peak harvesting season with grape-stomping, grape-flavored goodies and wine, the Hollis Grape Festival is returning for the second year on Sunday, Sept. 9, on the Hollis Town Common.

“I’d say we will be right at the first third or so of harvesting season for grapes by the time of the festival,” said Al Fulchi-

no of Fulchino Vineyard in Hollis, who compared the atmosphere of the event to that of the town’s long-running strawberry festival in June. “We’re encouraging people to come down to the Common and just have an intimate fun time meeting with community members and enjoying some Italian desserts. … It’s all about being part of that old town Hollis feel — that if you don’t live in Hollis, then you wish you did.”

Fulchino organized the first Grape Fes-

Lobster rolls, chowder, fried clams, oysters and all kinds of other seafood will be available to try during the 29th annual Hampton Beach Seafood Festival, happening Friday, Sept. 7, through Sunday, Sept. 9.

Dozens of restaurants, both local and from outside the state, will offer a diverse array of seafood all weekend, according to John Nyhan, president of the Hampton Area Chamber of Commerce and one of the overseers of the festival.

“I’m excited this year because we have some far-distant vendors but we also have some traditional food vendors here at the beach located right in Hampton,” said Nyhan.

“The Old Salt has been a true partner of ours for many, many years and has stayed with us through good times and bad. They’ll be back again this year with their famous chowder.

We have Lupe’s 55 with Mexican seafood, and then we have JB’s Seafood that has jumped back into this year’s festival. They will be offering lobster rolls and oysters on the shell and chowder. We have quite the variety of food vendors. I wish I could mention all 50, but those are a couple of examples.”

Various awards will be given out throughout the length of the weekend including best booth design, judge’s choice, best lobster roll

and more.

The festivities begin Friday, Sept. 7, at 4 p.m. when the Hampton Beach boardwalk is transformed into a party covering the entire seaside strip. Directly following the 6 p.m. ribbon cutting ceremony on the Mohegan Sun Stage, culinary demonstrations and tastings begin in the Culinary Tent and will be backed by the endless live entertainment of Gretchen and the Pickpockets and The B Street Bombers performing on the main stage, and Slacktide and Bailout rocking the beach stage from 4 p.m. to close.

Friday’s demonstrations will be put on by New Hampshire Made, an organization of 58

Several Italian desserts and treats will be available for sale, such as fresh grapes, grape-flavored gelato, grape-flavored Italian ice and grape slush, plus Italian sodas and bottled water.

“We’re expanding our food offering this year, so we’re looking to see how many other cold items we can offer that would appeal to people, like tiramisu, cannolis and other citrus desserts that are lemon and orange based,” Fulchino said.

New to this year’s festival will be a silent auction for various sports memorabilia, plus special event branded wine glasses that will be available for $10.

“Last year we did T-shirts, so this year we are doing wine glasses that say ‘Hollis Grape Festival,’” Fulchino said. “It’s going to be a limited number that are produced, but 100 percent of the profits are going to the charities.”

In addition to the Hollis Police Benevolent Association, two other charities will benefit from this year’s festival, including the Hollis Fire Explorers, and a new agricultural scholarship launched

by Fulchino himself.

“It’s going to be the town’s first scholarship dedicated to Hollis-Brookline High School students who would like to pursue a career in traditional farming, forestry, horticulture or animal husbandry,” he said, “so it’s a nice thing to be able to help those kids with things like tuition and purchasing books.”

businesses that exclusively create their products in-state, said Nyhan.

Saturday, Sept. 8, is the first full day of the festival with gates opening at 10 a.m., and will feature the main event of this year’s ceremony: the Lobster Roll Eating Competition.

“Our lobster roll eating contest is big. We have it on the stage and it’s a jam-packed crowd watching it and that’s exciting,” said Nyhan.

Contestants will battle for the first-, second- and third-place prizes of $600, $250 and $150. On top of the cash prize, the champion will receive an automatic entry into next year’s competition.

Contestants will have 10 minutes to eat as many McGuirk’s Ocean View Restaurant Pub and Hotel lobster rolls as possible.

Last year’s champion Joe Menchetti from Cheshire, Connecticut, will attempt to top his mark of finishing off 18 rolls to retain his bragging rights.

Other events that will be going on throughout the day on Saturday include the SKULL it Corn Hole Competition beginning at 2 p.m. at the Barefoot Cabana Stage where Barefoot will reward the cornhole champions a cornhole set. The competition is open to the public, and teams can register online.

Sunday, Sept. 9, is the last day of the celebration and gates will open at 10 a.m., with culinary demonstrations beginning at 11 a.m. featuring various chefs from throughout the Seacoast region.

Sunday’s main event will be a skydiving display put on by Sky Dive New England at 5 p.m., where 16 professional skydivers will land in the middle of the beach.

New this year is a solution for football fans.

“We are in competition on Sunday afternoon at one o’clock with the New England Patriots,” Nyhan said. “So as not to lose our patrons, in the beer tent on the street we are bringing in 52-inch TVs and we’re going to have the football game broadcasted live. So that’s an exciting event for us too, to be a part of the Patriots’ first game.”

Attendees can submit pictures taken at the festival to the photo contest by downloading the new Hampton Beach Seafood Festival app.

“We realize that a lot of people are now digital through their phones so we have a mobile app. In that mobile app we will have all of the different events along with a photo contest with rules and regulations so people can download their photos right into our app. From there we will be able to review the photos and make our selections,” said Nyhan.

The festival has been named “One of the Top 100 Events in North America” by the American Bus Association for the last 11 consecutive years, with event attendance for this year’s event being estimated at exceeding 150,000 people, according to the Hampton Beach Seafood Festival website.

FOOD

FROM THE

pantry

Ideas from off the shelf

Cheesy taco skillet I’ve been on something of a taco kick lately, and I have been searching my new town for great little places to find the delicious fare. Unfortunately, my bank account isn’t as in love with eating at new restaurants as I am, and I had to look for a recipe that would hit all the elements I love about tacos without breaking the bank — an effort helped by working with what was in my pantry.

This recipe for a cheesy taco skillet was just what I needed. It had the crunch, the spice and the cheese, plus the hearty beans and chunky tomatoes that I love to add to all tacos. It proved pantry- and wallet-friendly, and most importantly it was delicious. In fact, after trying this recipe, I may eschew all other tacos (homemade or otherwise) in favor of this dish.

I made a few tweaks to this recipe based on what I had in my pantry. Namely, I used minced onions while preparing the dish instead of garnishing with sliced green

ones; I used shredded chicken instead of ground beef; and I reserved the cheese for individual helpings instead of melting it over the whole dish. While I love cheese unabashedly, my husband could take it or leave it, which means most of the time I leave heavy helpings of cheese off a dish and put it on my own plate instead.

Omitting the cheese and putting it on each serving helped the dish seem fresh each time I reheated it. I went back for seconds the night I made this, plus had it for lunch for the next two days — there’s no shame in my taco game.

Not surprisingly, my entire family said they prefer this recipe to any of the quickfix taco seasoning packets that I’ve used in the past. And with how simple this recipe was, and how quickly it came together, it’s a recipe that will be a part of our family dinners for the foreseeable future.

My wife went to a local liquor store a couple weeks back and couldn’t find Samuel Adams Summer Ale. That was all she wanted, just some “Sam Summer” on a hot beach day. But there was no more Sam Summer. She asked, to her credit, “Is it because you’re already putting out pumpkin beer?”

The manager laughed and informed her he had Octoberfest beers in the back that he couldn’t, in good conscience, put out yet.

I’m glad they shared a laugh, but laughs don’t turn into Sam Summer.

Aside from the fact that the first official day of fall isn’t until Sept. 22, I’m fairly certain it was actually 1,000 degrees just last week. I still want to drink summer beers and I think you should too. No self-respecting New Englander was drinking Octoberfest or other fall beers last week.

That’s one of the things that’s great about the craft beer movement. Craft brewers can be a bit more nimble than industry giants. I’m not about to take shots at the big guys; the reality is that they’re brewing for a much larger national audience than your local neighborhood brewer, who can actually wait to introduce beers until it’s seasonally appropropriate. That means your local craft brewer is still treating it like it’s summer, whereas larger-scale producers like Samuel Adams are making the transition to fall.

As we begin to make the transition from the summer drinking season to the fall drinking season, here are five New Hampshire brews to help summer linger:

The Scenic Session by 603 Brewery is an excellent summer time IPA. Courtesy photo.

Scenic Session by 603 Brewery (Londonderry) One of the things that has made IPAs so popular is that you can drink them all year-round, on the hottest days and on the coldest days. I find session IPAs to be the perfect antidote to a late summer day. 603’s Scenic Session is a New England style IPA, so you get that haziness and that juiciness in a little lighter package.

Kapitöl Kölsch by Concord Craft Brewing (Concord) A Kölsch is always a fit for a hot summer day: clean, light, crisp and refreshing. This golden ale, which comes in at 5.3-percent ABV, has a subtle sweetness and a smooth finish that begs to be enjoyed at the beach.

This is easy drinking at its best.

Pompadour by Resilience Brewing, Schilling Beer Co.’s American Ale Proj‑ ect (Littleton) If I had to name my favorite New Hampshire brew, I think this would be my choice.

Beyond my personal affinity for it, it’s a perfect summertime pale ale characterized by brilliant citrus and peach flavors. This is You Can Get Wit This by Stoneface wonderfully complex — hoppy enough to Brewing Co. (Newington) please “hop-heads,” but entirely approachStoneface calls this its “perfect warm able. At 5.6-percent ABV, I invite you to weather beer,” and it’s highlighted by have more than one. big citrus flavors stemming from the Jeff Mucciarone is a senior account execuaddition of blood oranges. The orange tive with Montagne Communications, where flavor lingers on this 4.8-percent ABV he provides communications support to the witbier. I give you permission to have New Hampshire wine and spirits industry. a couple.

She Sells Seashells by Throwback Brewery (North Hampton) I’ve actually seen people add a little salt to their beer, usually a Bud Light or something along those lines. I never quite understood what was going on there but this salted and dry-hopped blonde ale is particularly intriguing. Salt enhances flavor, right? Throwback suggests pairing this with salads, roasted chicken, seafood and goat cheese.

What’s in My Fridge Steel Rail Pale Ale by Berkshire Brewing Co.: I was recently at a wedding in western Massachusetts where the Steel Rail Pale Ale was on tap — rejoice. As I went to college in western Massachusetts, this was a regular choice of mine. It had been some time and it was pleasing to make its “reacquaintance.”

Flavorful, refreshing, hoppy but not too bitter and entirely sessionable. Cheers!

You know, I honestly don’t know if I’ve ever covered a jazz LP in which the bandleader was a bass player, aside from Ron Carter’s album a few years ago. But he doesn’t count, being a legend and all, and he isn’t considered modern, the way this New Orleans 28-year-old is. Total party record here anyway; we’re not talking Weather Channel steez, cocktail chill or anything overly polite. Moran is big into Parliament Funkadelic, steeping opening track “All Right” with cool-breeze spoken word; he also plays a lot of chords underneath his boys’ jamming. That’s the word, by the way, on this record, a set of “funk jams,” but that ignores the very feisty prog that goes on in “Chest,” for one thing (drummer Joe Dyson is nothing short of remarkable). Although it’s possibly their most mellow track, “Continuation” has a skyrocketing guitar solo from John Maestas and some backward-masked keyboard something-or-other that makes for some innovative soundscaping (sweet coda from alto sax guy Donald Harrison that brings to mind Ronnie Laws). Don’t miss this if you dig the funk. A+ — Eric W. Saeger

Mirrors For Psychic Warfare, I See What I Became (Neurot Recordings)

I was never big on Neurosis or any post-doom-metal stuff, which, like any genre that begins with “post,” tended to sound a bit cheap, not that that automatically spells worthlessness.

Anyway, Scott Kelly from Neurosis is here; the band is a partnership between him and Buried at Sea’s Sanford Parker. But delay the post-whatever tag for now; this is in fact an industrial-noise joint, not of the Sunn(((O))) variety at all, more like Swans meets (place name of other Alternative Tentacles band here). Maybe I’ve grown accustomed to the grinding, post-robot-apocalyptic sounds of these projects over the years, but it’s accessible in its way. For example, “Tomb Puncher” places forbidding, unintelligible, faraway vocal work over scratchy tank-tread agro sounds that might have been useful to Jim Thirlwell during his Wiseblood project. What this all means is that this stuff could soundtrack the next Terminator movie rather handily. B — Eric W. Saeger

• Well that was a fast summer, huh? I wouldn’t want to be releasing an album now, with everyone going back to the morning grind of getting stuck in traffic behind school buses that stop 50 times while we’re all just trying to get to the office and plan our trips to the Cape next July. Gack, I need three fingers of scotch just thinking about it, but there are albums coming out for Sept. 7, and we must discuss them, because that is our purpose here, not selling books that you should definitely buy or talking about Bus No. 9 in Derry, with the kid who makes faces at me, like I need that. Where were we again?

Oh yes, bad albums, so let’s start with Paul McCartney’s Egypt Sta‑ tion, streeting Sept. 7. Does this gorillion-generian still have what it takes to get the kids to the sock hop, snapping their fingers and guzzling raspberry rickeys? Oh, I can’t hate this single, “Come On to Me,” it’s the same kind of sound as half the rad Merge Records releases of the Aughts; it’s like Strokes but way overproduced, of course.

• Speaking of old dogs and new tricks, ancient Sumerian artifact Paul Simon offers no new tricks for Vampire Weekend to rip off in his new LP, In the Blue Light. Unlike Sir Paul Hollingsworth Jeeves McCartney, Simon tabled a sleepy, tired, mummified blues track as this album’s single, a tune called “One Man’s Ceiling Is Another Man’s Floor.” This one is pure 12-bar boredom, which, come to think of it, might actually work in his favor, being that no one else is doing this these days (there’s a reason for that).

• Here’s a good U.K. indie-pop band to talk about: Teleman! Their new album, Family of Aliens, includes a really cool, mellow single called “Cactus” that reminds me of Pet Shop Boys and Wire, meaning I was born to think it was awesome. The video is stupid, just art-studio shots of a dude in a StayPuft Marshmallow Man balloon costume made to look like a cactus, but hey, it could always be worse.

Maybe there is a secret message in this stupid video. I don’t know.

• Lenny Kravitz is what you’d get if you made a Hendrix Muppet for the Muppet Show and put tats and scarves on it. Raise Vibration, his new LP, includes the single “It’s Enough,” in which Kravitz applies his steamy Smoky Robinson nick to a pseudo-1970s Santana thing.

The lyrics basically amount to Principal Mackey saying “Guns are bad. Mkay.” — Eric W. Saeger

Granite State Comic Con celebrates pop culture

641 Elm Street, Manchester, NH 603-668-8001 kisakimanchester.com

Immerse yourself in all things pop culture at the 16th annual Granite State Comic Con, which will feature artists, celebrities, games, panels and workshops, contests, vendors and more and will take place on Saturday, Sept.

8, and Sunday, Sept. 9.

“Everyone’s a fan of something, whether it’s superheroes or Disney characters or anime, so we wanted to create a really fun event where everyone can celebrate their fandom,” said Chris Proulx, owner of Double Midnight Comics in Manchester, which produces the event. “We still like to focus on the comic aspect and keep the ‘comic’ in ‘comic con,’ but we also include all other kinds of pop culture, so anyone who comes will see or experience something that they love.”

The weekend kicks off with a pre-party on Friday, Sept. 7, featuring karaoke emceed by Rock 101’s Furious, games and door prizes.

On Saturday and Sunday, the comic con will be divided into two sections. On one end, there will be the Kids Con, vendors, artists, costume groups, panels and workshops and costume contests. At the other end, there will be an artist alley, more vendors, celebrity meet-and-greets and autographs, more panels and workshops, gaming and more.

The Kids Con is an extension of Kids Con New England, the first and largest kidfocused comic convention in New England held every June, created and run by Emily Drouin, local comic book artist and creator of the kids’ sci-fi action-adventure comic EPLIS. The Kids Con area will have coloring and activity tables, a coloring contest, face painting and a balloon artist; a createa-comic workshop; crafts including pirate, princess and superhero puppets and mask making; and drawing workshops, where kids can learn to draw monsters and aliens, expressions, superhero poses, video game characters, Pixar Disney characters and Star Wars Rebels.

“We’re a family-friendly event, and we’re really happy to be able to work with Emily and put that on for the kids,” Proulx said.

“It’s a unique thing, like a convention within the convention.”

This year’s celebrity guests will include four actors from Star Trek: Discovery; Caroll Edwin Spinney, who performed as Big Bird and Oscar the Grouch on Sesame Street for almost 50 years; Steve Whitmire, who has worked on The Muppets and Sesame Street, performing as Kermit the Frog and Ernie after Jim Henson’s death in 1990 for more than two decades; and Butch Patrick, who played Eddie Munster on The Munsters.

There will be 16 special guest comic creators, including creators who worked on comics like Batman: White Knight, Marvel’s Silk, Batmite and more.

“A lot of these artists work all day alone in their own home or studio, so it’s great for them to be able to get out and meet their fans and promote their work,” Proulx said.

One of the participating comic creators is Ben Bishop of Portland, Maine, best known for his work on the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles comic and his original, self-published and Kickstarter-funded comic The Aggregate, which is the world’s first published split-decision, or choose-your-own-adventure, graphic novel. The post-apocalyptic sci-fi adventure story has 28 different outcomes, depending on the reader’s choices.

“I had all these ideas for how I wanted the story to go, and then I thought, instead of picking just one avenue, why don’t I include all of them?” Bishop said. “I knew it had never been done before, and I knew that it would be appealing to a lot of people who remember those old choose-your-ownadventure books.”

At the comic con, Bishop and the other comic creators and artists will be selling and signing their comics and doing commission sketches for people on site.

“A lot of people at these events like to go around with their own sketchbooks and collect custom art from as many artists as they can,” Bishop said. “Other people just like to have something from an artist that they are a fan of, to be able to say they met them.”

Attendees can participate in a variety of panels and workshops on topics such as cosplay and social media, steampunk, gam-

ing with your kids, how to approach artists at conventions and more.

New this year, there will be adults’ and kids’ Namaslay Warrior Yoga classes with Wonder Woman cosplayer and yoga instructor Molly Virello, where attendees are invited to take a break from all the excitement and work on their superhero landings, warrior poses and war faces.

One of the biggest attractions of the comic con, Proulx said, is the adults’ and kids’ costume contests, where participants compete for cash prizes with costumes modeled after video game, television, film and comic book characters. The judges are established and award-winning cosplayers. “[The judges] look for craftsmanship and how the costume is made,” Proulx said.

“They look at the unique way the person put the costume together and all the detail they put into it.”

Proulx said Granite State Comic Con is a great alternative to the larger comic conventions, particularly for families.

“The comic cons in major cities can be more crowded and more expensive and quite overwhelming,” he said. “We feel that we’ve hit a nice mark; you can bring the kids, it’s not going to break the bank and the size is very manageable.”

Bishop’s advice to attendees is to explore new things outside of their regular fandom and take advantage of all the comic con has to offer.

“That’s the great thing about Granite State Comic Con: it’s a nice mix of all different things and isn’t all focused on just cosplay or just celebrities or just comics,” Bishop said, “so I would say, if you usually go to comic cons for a certain thing, try checking out some of the other stuff, too, so that you have plenty to do for the whole two days.”

Granite State Comic Con When: Saturday, Sept. 8, 10 a.m. to 6 p.m., and Sunday, Sept. 9, 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.

This summer, Crazy Rich Asians has taken the silver screen by storm as To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before has made similar waves on the small screen. From the opulence of Singapore to the awkward fishbowl experiences of high school, American audiences have gotten the chance to engage with sympathetic Asian-American leads.

It’s refreshing to see the stories of Chinese American and mixed-race Korean American women told to broad audiences at a time where Hollywood insists on whitewashing characters intended as Asian. And at a time when immigration is more hotly contested than ever, it’s exciting to see a novel that engages with the hardships that immigrants face while maintaining a satirical wit, situational humor and straightforward laugh lines.

On its face, A River of Stars is a pullyourself-up-by-your-bootstraps story of single mother Scarlett Chen. In China, she escaped her rural upbringing and became a supervisor at a factory, where she fell into a passionate love affair with the older, married Boss Yeung. (Throughout the novel, she always refers to him as such, despite conceiving a child with him. First and foremost, that is his defining trait as a character, a class above Scarlett, driven home by the fact that he and his “legitimate” daughter also think of him as “Boss Yeung.”)

Hua thoughtfully examines survival, China’s one-child policy and the American dream through flashbacks told throughout the story. The more Scarlett forges a life for herself and the child on American soil, the more she can relate to her own single mother, with whom she had a difficult relationship. But the darkness of Scarlett’s past is contrasted with the potential brightness of her future, and her child’s, in the United States.

The story begins with the eight-monthspregnant Scarlett at Perfume Bay, a “spa” of questionable repute for pregnant Chinese women based in Los Angeles. Right off the bat, the absurdity of Scarlett’s situation will have readers guiltily stifling their laughter. Most pregnant women are given preferential treatment in public spaces, but when they’re surrounded by other pregnant women, who is entitled to extra pampering?

The fact that Scarlett is a working-class mistress treated with equal respect by the owner of Perfume Bay makes Scarlett’s wealthy peers rife with jealousy. But when Scarlett receives shocking news from one of her sonograms, she knows Boss Yeung will not only pull the plug on her stay in Perfume Bay but also make her return to China a living hell. A house full of hormonal mothers-to-be is a powder keg ready to explode, and it only makes sense that the

inciting match is a woman going into early labor.

From there, the novel fast-forwards into a getaway chase. During the confusion, Scarlett steals a van, gives misdirection to strangers to throw the Perfume Bay boss and Boss Yeung off her trail, and discovers teenage stowaway and fellow Perfume Bay resident Daisy. Daisy has all but been disinherited by her Taiwanese parents for getting pregnant with a boy she has only met twice, so the 30-something Scarlett finds herself on a Thelma and Louise-like rescue mission. The two make an effort to escape Los Angeles and dissolve into the San Francisco Chinatown landscape, which is difficult for them to do as heavily pregnant women with matching jumpsuits. But the community quickly bands together to help Scarlett and Daisy find an apartment, safely deliver their babies at a hospital to guarantee their children’s American citizenship, and supply them with endless groceries and diapers.

Now Scarlett and Daisy struggle to keep up with the monumental and ludicrous physical demands of new motherhood while the need to financially support themselves becomes pressing.

Hua elegantly ties together threads about the difficulties of immigration, the fierce power of motherhood, the determination of an entrepreneur and the undying bond of friendship. This poignant novel also reads as a fun romp. Readers see the lows of dirty diapers and swindling immigration lawyers, but they also see the highs of a successful food cart venture and babies discovering the world for the first time. As with this summer’s rom-coms, audiences will root for the protagonist to come out on top of their obstacles and get the happy ending. The ending thrums with hope and makes readers believe in a better tomorrow. A — Katherine Ouellette

POP CULTURE FILM REVIEWS BY AMY DIAZ

Searching (R)

A father tries to find his missing daughter using her social media contacts in Searching, a movie told through screens.

Computer screens, FaceTime calls, the occasional security cam — these are the frames through which we see the story of Margot Kim (Michelle La). We see her parents, David (John Cho) and Pam (Sara Sohn), set up Margot’s own login to the family computer, a place for her Pokemon drawings, videos of her learning piano and first day of school photos. Through the chronicle created by emails, calendar listings and searches for “how to fight lymphoma” we also trace the course of Pam’s illness through remission and reoccurrence up until we see David placing the photo of her in a card for her funeral.

In the present day, David and teenage Margot appear to communicate mostly through FaceTime and text, the combo of which is the last contact he has with her when she tells him that she’ll be home late from study group and he reminds her to take out the trash.

The next morning, he sees she tried to call him a few times late the previous night and, after a failed attempt to reach her back, texts her. When he doesn’t hear back from her after hours, he calls her school and finds out she was absent. Then, using his wife’s old contact list, he tries some of her friends, learning eventually that a group of kids has gone on a trip to the mountain. He angrily — writing and then deleting several allcaps-containing texts — awaits the moment the kids return to an area with cell phone reception so he can chew her out. But then her friend calls to say that Margot, though invited on the trip, never showed.

It’s then that David calls the police and Detective Vick (Debra Messing) is on the case. She tells him to look through Margot’s digital life for clues to friends and interests. As much as social media might present a fake, curated view of somebody’s

REVIEWLETS

* indicates a movie worth seeing. For reviews of graded films, go to www.hippopress. com Opening this week:

Opening Friday, Sept. 7: The Nun (R ) The Conjuring is now a cinematic universe, what with spin-off Annabelle movies and now The Nun, which stars Taissa Farmiga (younger sister of Vera); Peppermint (R) Jennifer Garner is a vengeful grief-stricken mom who rediscovers her Alias bad-ass side in this movie whose trailers are, like, not great.

Searching

life, so, David soon learns, has the version of the Margot David shares a house with been only a partial view into her life.

Who might know more about the real her?

David’s brother, Peter (Joseph Lee)? The boy posting dirty comments to her online?

The “friend” posting as “fish_n_chips” on the social media app Margot used most?

John Cho gives a good performance as a dad who, initially, is balancing general dad frustration with the desire to be supportive but give his daughter space. Later, he’s just barely holding back fear and rage. More John Cho, please, is my feeling at the end of this movie. Post-Harold & Kumar, I’ve mostly seen Cho in supporting roles. He’s an engaging lead.

Even leaving aside my old lady horror at the dangerous mix of “social media” and “teenagers,” Searching is a solid thriller.

The gimmick of having everything shown to us only through the frame of some kind of other screen works, narrowing the information we’re receiving to a point of view that doesn’t belong to any specific character but is just as unreliable. B Rated PG-13 for thematic content, some drug and sexual references, and for language. Directed by Aneesh Chaganty and written by Aneesh Chaganty and Sev Oha-

On VOD *Support the Girls (R) Regina Hall, Haley Lu Richardson.

Hall is Lisa, the manager of a Hooters-like restaurant called Double Whammies and most of this really sweet, frequently funny movie follows her through a single shift at her job where she deals with lech-y customers, a mercurial business owner, the collateral damage of a break-in, new employee training and, of course, her girls, each with her own set of difficulties, from last-minute child care needs to legal woes.

Hall is delightful as a very real kind of woman with personal-life

nian, Searching is an hour and 42 minutes long and distributed by Sony.

Operation Finale (PG-13)

Israeli intelligence agents search for Nazi war criminal Adolf Eichmann in early 1960s Argentina in Operation Finale, a suspense movie in the mold of Argo.

Sylvia Hermann (Haley Lu Richardson) brings Klaus Eichmann (Joe Alwyn), who is, like her, of German ancestry, home to meet her father, Lothar Hermann (Peter Strauss). Klaus’s last name and the details of his family’s life lead Lothar to suspect that, though Klaus claims he lives with an uncle named Ricardo Klement and that his father was a soldier who died in the war, the Hermanns have stumbled on Adolf Eichmann (Ben Kingsley), one of the architects of the Holocaust.

After being horrified by a meeting of old Nazis and Argentinean fascists that Klaus brings her to, Sylvia agrees to help verify the identity of Adolf Eichmann. She visits the house where “Klement” lives and is able to draw him outside where members of Israeli intelligence take a photo.

Reasonably certain that they have found Eichmann, the Mossad send a small team

cruddy situation: DeWitt is Cassie, a real estate agent in the depths of 2009. She labors to sell homes in half-empty neighborhoods in an Arizona suburb where boarded up windows and dead lawns suggest the havoc caused by the collapse of the housing market. Cassie can’t make enough sales to keep up with her own mortgage, a situation shared by Sonny, who bought a house from Cassie’s boss (Seth Rogen). Sonny shows up to yell at Rogen’s character and accidenArizona (R) tally/on-purpose kills him. Cassie Danny McBride, Rosemarie probably wouldn’t care that much but Sonny sees her see what hapDeWitt.

And speaking of women present- pened and so he kidnaps her, taking the best possible front in a ing her back to his house in his troubles (her marriage is falling apart) who nonetheless has to put on a smile and get through the day, meeting every obstacle with a polite but firm determination to get things done. Just watching her is the movie’s central pleasure.

Richardson, who also shows up in this week’s Operation Finale, also does a good job with her relatively small role. She could at first glance seem like a ditz but we can see the makings of a future Lisa. A-

to capture Eichmann and bring him back to Israel to stand trial. The team includes Rafi Eitan (Nick Kroll, in a nicely low-key role), interrogator Zvi Aharoni (Michael Aronov), Peter Malkin (Oscar Isaac) and a doctor, Hanna Elian (Mélanie Laurent), to help sedate the prisoner.

Obstacles include political turmoil in Argentina, where those with sympathies for Eichmann and his fellow travelers have enough power to hide him or keep the Israelis from extraditing him. The plan is to dress Eichmann up as an El Al pilot and sneak him out in a commercial plane, doping him up so he just appears to be a pilot who partied too hard. But, to get El Al to participate, the intelligence team must not just confirm that Klement is, in fact, Eichmann but get him to agree to willingly come to Israel to stand trial.

Aharoni is the official interrogator and initially the only person who is supposed to talk to Eichmann during the week and a half that they have to keep him hidden in Argentina. But soon Malkin is also chatting with him, appealing, as he explains, to Eichmann’s ego and attempting to use Eichmann’s desire to explain himself to history as incentive to get him to agree to go to Israel.

As with most members of the team, the mission is personal for Malkin. He is haunted by thoughts of his sister, Fruma (Rita Pauls), and how she and her children died at the hands of the Nazis. This tragedy has put a weight on his life, as the movie tells it, preventing him from, for one, having the relationship he so clearly desires with Hanna.

A story like this doesn’t need a lot of embellishment, which is perhaps why the movie plays it all fairly straightforward. In tone, the movie reminded me a lot of Argo — the tension is in the moment, not the outcome, which is probably even better-known than with that story. The movie is not quite as skillfully produced as that one; I felt like there was a lot more “telling” happen73

“Something del Oro” housing development where the cul-de-sacs are snugged together but nearly empty. Sonny is not an everyman pushed to the edge; everything about the character makes it clear he has always been some degree of unhinged. The movie uses the Great Recession setting more as a prop than as a basis to deliver some kind of overarching message. It has its moments, though, usually when DeWitt blends terror, a salesperson’s attempt to reach their customer and a mother’s drive to protect her daughter. C

*Eighth Grade (R) Elsie Fisher, Josh Hamilton.

Kayla is in the final days of eighth grade, just trying to make it to high school, while dealing with all of her insecurities and frustrations.

Eighth grade is a soul-crushing year but Eighth Grade is perfect. A *Crazy Rich Asians (PG-13) Constance Wu, Henry Golding.

All the elements come together in this classic romantic comedy: likeable female lead, handsome guy, swoonily lovey Singapore setting, disapproving parents (Michelle Yeoh plays a mean game of polite death-match mahjong) and sassy friends. B+

Between Labor Day and Thanksgiving Day, the schedule features a mix of prestige films and movies geared at a broader audience. Here are some of the movies scheduled for the next three months that I have yet to see but am intrigued by: • A Simple Favor (R, Sept. 14) Anna Kendrick, Blake Lively and Henry Golding (of Crazy Rich Asians) star in this movie that, billed as being “from the darker side of Paul Feig,” has a trailer with Gone Girl suspense thriller vibes.

• Night School (PG-13, Sept. 28) Tiffany Haddish and Kevin Hart star in this comedy about a man attempting to get his GED. • Smallfoot (PG, Sept. 28) A group of yetis try to prove the existence of “smallfoot” (i.e. people) in this cartoon from Warner Animation Group featuring the vocal talents of Zendaya, Channing Tatum, James Corden and Gina Rodriguez.

• The Old Man and the Gun (PG-13, Sept. 28) Robert Redford takes a final lap, perhaps, according to media reports that he’s retiring, with this movie about a gentlemanly bank robber that also stars Sissy Spacek and Casey Affleck. The trailer suggests Oscar nominations are the default for this film.

• Venom (Oct. 5) Tom Hardy stars in this movie Wikipedia describes as “adjunct to the Marvel Cinematic Universe.”

• A Star Is Born (R, Oct. 5) Bradley Cooper directs and stars in this fourth movie iteration of A Star Is Born, according to Wikipedia, which also stars Lady Gaga (who the trailers have me rooting for) and Sam Elliott.

• First Man (PG-13, Oct. 12) Ryan Gosling stars in this movie directed by Damien Chazelle (La La Land and Whiplash) about astronaut Neil Armstrong.

• Beautiful Boy (R, Oct. 12) Like A Star Is Born and First Man, this movie, based on the memoirs of a father and son about the son’s struggle with addiction, has the look of a possible awards seasons contender. It stars Steve Carell and Timothée Chalamet.

• The Hate U Give (PG-13, Oct. 19) Trailers for this movie (based on a YA novel) about a teen who witnesses the police shooting of her friend look very promising.

Amandla Stenberg (who I remember primarily from Everything Everything) stars.

• Can You Ever Forgive Me? (R, Oct. 19) Melissa McCarthy appears to be tackling a more dramatic performance in this story about a down on her luck author who makes money by selling forged letters from famous writers.

• Mid90s (Oct. 19) Jonah Hill wrote and directed this movie about a skater kid in 1990s Los Angeles.

Henry Golding and Blake Lively in A Simple Favor

• Bohemian Rhapsody (Nov. 2) Rami Malek is a pretty convincing-looking Freddy Mercury in this movie about the band Queen and its lead singer.

• Nobody’s Fool (Nov. 2) Tyler Perry directs a comedy starring Tiffany Haddish about sisters who search for the person catfishing one of them.

• Boy Erased (Nov. 2) Lucas Hedges (Oscar nominee for Manchester by the Sea and a supporting actor in two best picture Oscar nominees from last year) stars in this movie from director Joel Edgerton about a young man forced by his parents into a gay conversion program.

• The Grinch (PG, Nov. 9) The classic Dr. Seuss story story returns to animation with Benedict Cumberbatch voicing the titular small-hearted Christmas-hater.

• The Front Runner (R, Nov. 9) Hugh Jackman plays Senator Gary Hart in this movie about the 1988 presidential candidate.

• Widows (R, Nov. 16) I suppose I should talk about Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald, also out Nov. 16, but the mere thought of that movie makes me exhausted so instead let’s look at this movie from director Steve McQueen (12 Years a Slave) about a group of women who decide to finish the criminal endeavors of their late husbands in order to pay off the men’s debts. Standouts on the cast include Viola Davis, Carrie Coon, Jacki Weaver and Michelle Rodriguez.

• Ralph Breaks the Internet (Nov. 23) Will this Disney Animation sequel (to Wreck It Ralph) be better than the year’s Pixar sequel? I’m certainly more excited for this — featuring the voice of Sarah Silverman — than I was for Incredibles 2.

• Creed II (Nov. 23) Michael B. Jordan returns as the son of Apollo Creed to face off against the son of Ivan Drago.

ing here and that the events themselves felt padded out with Malkin’s personal life (his sister, his relationship with Hanna) not just to add emotional stakes to the narrative but also to add narrative to the narrative. This padding is fine, I’m just not sure it was totally necessary.

These aren’t fatal flaws, though, and Oscar Isaac’s performance is compelling

enough that it pulls you through any of the film’s thinner elements. B Rated PG-13 for disturbing thematic content and related violent images, and for some language, according to the MPAA. Directed by Chris Weitz and written by Matthew Orton, Operation Finale is two hours and two minutes long and distributed by MGM Pictures.

• Metal men: Supporting a new LP ironically titled A Place Where There’s No More Pain, Life of Agony plays a midweek beach show. The band rose from the ’90s New York City music scene with “one of the most distinctive sounds in its genre.” Its 1993 debut album River Runs Red was named one of the greatest metal albums of all time by Rolling Stone. Go Wednesday, Sept. 12, 7 p.m., Wally’s Pub, 144 Ashworth Ave., Hampton. Tickets to the 21+ show are $10 at ticketweb.com.

Dana Fuchs’ first effort as a songwriter begins with the line, “I came from the South, but I landed in snow.” It’s a reference to her decision to leave Florida at age 19 and follow her muse to New York City.

Her journey was marked by hard times and good fortune. After a few tough breaks on the Lower East Side, Fuchs fell into a blues scene that was just vibrant enough to launch a career.

“All the great clubs were shutting down, but I was able to get in before that happened,” Fuchs (pronounced Fyooks) said in a recent phone interview. “I really cut my teeth in these blues clubs, night after night.”

Vital to her rise was Jon Diamond, a guitarist she’d heard playing in a club as she walked by outside. Fuchs went in, and introduced herself as a singer.

“He was like, ‘Well, who are you listening to?’ I said ‘Zeppelin, Stones,’” she said. “He said, ‘OK, now you gotta go and listen to what they listen to.’ He gave me names and loaned me albums.”

Thus began a musical partnership that continues to this day — though she reports in her bio that an attempted romance went down in flames: “The first two weeks we were together, we were breaking up every day.”

Along the way, Fuchs played Janis Joplin off-Broadway in Love, Janis (“a master class in singing and performing”) and was Sexy Sadie in Across the Universe, Julie Taymor’s brilliant but fan-neglected 2007 movie.

She’s made a pair of incendiary live albums, worked on the soundtrack of Sherrybaby and, following eight years between 2003’s Lonely for a Lifetime debut, made three studio records beginning with 2011’s Love to Beg. For her latest, Fuchs has returned to her Southern roots, making Love Lives On in Memphis.

The new LP includes two songs originally recorded there in the heady early days of rock and soul, “Nobody’s Fault but Mine.” and “Ring of Fire.” The latter is a tribute to her late father, stripped down, with a gospel tempo.

“He loved Johnny Cash,” she said.

Covering Otis Redding was simply a natural fit for Fuchs, who claims seeing him perform “I’ve Been Loving You Too Long” in Monterey Pop around the time of her move to NYC steeled her resolve to be a musician.

coproducer Kevin Houston that included Hammond B3 legend Rev. Charles Hodges, they hewed to the original’s energy, while rocking up the soulful Redding B-side.

“I’ve always loved the tune,” Fuchs said. “I thought, ‘That’s a great live jam’ and we started doing it live.”

That vibe continues on the following track. “Callin’ Angels” has echoes of Redding’s “Fa-Fa-Fa-Fa-Fa (Sad Song)” — in more ways than its infectious groove. The song remembers loved ones now missing from her life: Fuchs’ older sister, whose suicide was the spark that led her to New York City in 1995, two brothers, one felled by brain cancer shortly after the move, and her father, who died four years ago.

Most recently, her beloved mother passed, in 2016. Fuchs pays tribute to her on the aching title track. “All these years you’ve been holding on, pushing through,” she sings. “How could you be so strong?

Can I be that strong?” The death came six months before Fuchs gave birth to her first child. One of her mom’s final gifts was a name for the boy: Aidan.

The toddler is with her on the road, including a recent Europe tour.

“He stays on U.S. time, so we can have dinner late,” she said. “I get to take him to these amazing places that I’ve been going

to for years [and] it’s wonderful to see them through his eyes, to have my little buddy with me. He’s been very portable; that’s going to change when he gets a little older.”

Despite this newfound bliss, Fuchs isn’t moving toward writing “happy baby songs,” as she called them in one blog post.

She may be white and New Jersey-born, but Fuchs has endured enough tragedy to earn the title of blues singer, and it shines through in songs like “Fight My Way” and “Ready to Rise” — two more standout cuts on the new album.

It’s not that she hasn’t tried to write more lines about feeling good.

“I don’t know if I’m capable,” she said with a laugh. “One of my first love songs was when my mom told me, ‘Your songs are depressing; I like them but could you write a love song?’ I said OK [and] I had full intention of writing one, but out came the song ‘Misery.’ I always joke when I introduce it on stage, ‘Well, this is my happy love song.’”

Taking their name from a traditional song, Les Poules à Colin were raised behind the scenes at folk festivals, learning their craft at kitchen parties amongst some of Quebec’s finest trad musicians - which included their parents - in a region famous for its living heritage.

Despite their young age (22-27), they’ve have been playing together for over eight years and it shows in their sparkling complicity. The group has a strong stage presence and demonstrates a contagious pleasure in each and every performance, drawing the audience to them. At Riverwalk Cafe (35 Railroad Square, Nashua) on Friday, Sept. 7, 8 p.m. with Zack Trojano. Tickets are $15 at riverwalknashua.com.

Social media have given us the dubious opportunity to document all manner of celebratory, mournful, hilarious and contemplative events. And so they have opened the door to fame for “Paul Flart” (real name: Doug), a 31-year-old hospital security guard who took to Instagram in March to share with the world his “sphincter sirens.” Flart spent a lot of time sitting around at the front desk with nothing to do, but, he noticed, “The lobby has really great acoustics, and naturally, we all fart. One day I ripped a rather nice one and got really good sound from it, so the next time it happened I recorded it and sent it to my group chat.” Those lucky friends encouraged him to go viral and helped him choose his Insta handle, Paul Flart. Today, he’s racked up more than 20,000 followers, according to Vice. Unfortunately, hospital management isn’t among them, and on Aug. 23, Flart was fired from his job. But he’s not deflated; he plans to expand his reach: “We can do Paul Flart on vacation, you know, throw in like a Hawaiian shirt and a hat ... and then just fart around Florida.”

Bright idea

Jeffrey Tomerlin, 45, was charged with assault on Aug. 19 after he hurled a soft, fluffy, edible weapon at his ex-girlfriend.

When Tomerlin saw his ex in a car with her new boyfriend, he walked up to her window and threw a biscuit at her face. He also charged the car, banging on it and saying he would kill them, reported WKRN, earning additional charges of public intoxication and vandalism. It was not clear whether the biscuit damaged the ex-girlfriend’s face.

Florida. Says it all

On Aug. 20, the Miami Herald endorsed Republican Bettina Rodriguez Aguilera, who was running to replace Rep. Ileana RosLehtinen to represent a district that includes parts of Miami and Miami Beach. (She lost her primary bid on Aug. 28.) Rodriguez Aguilera has been a city official and a business executive, the Herald noted, but conceded, “We realize that Rodriguez Aguilera is an unusual candidate.” Before she was a candidate, Rodriguez Aguilera appeared on Spanish-language television programs to talk about her experience of being abducted by aliens when she was 7 years old.

Three beings, two women and a man who reminded her of Jesus Christ, spoke to her “telepathically” and took her aboard their spaceship. Inside, she saw “round seats that were there, and some quartz rocks that controlled the ship,” and she said she has communicated with them several times since then. However, editorial page editor Nancy Ancrum didn’t think Rodriguez Aguilera’s beliefs or past experiences compromised her as an effective public servant.

“Here’s why we chose her: She’s not crazy,” a bad batch (of methamphetamine) around Ancrum told The Washington Post. “I don’t here ‘cause Floyd County has gone crazy in think we went off the rails here.” the last four days.” Hagans was charged with receiving stolen property and being a convicted felon with a firearm.

Mason Tackett of Floyd County, Kentucky, told WYMT that neighbors called him on Aug. 26 to say his cousin, Phillip Hagans, was carrying items out of Tackett’s house. When Tackett returned home, he said, “It looked like he was packing up for a yard sale when he come out.” Hagans was “lying, throwing his hands, saying stuff like, ‘I didn’t do it. I didn’t do it.’ ... He did pull a gun on me,” Tackett said. But what he really couldn’t understand was Hagans’ choice of items to steal: a cheese grater, an empty Lysol bottle and soap. “Who steals a cheese grater?” Tackett asked. “He stole my soap. Who steals soap? ... Must have been

Tang asked the group to wait there while he went to get the cash, but instead, according to Shanghaiist, he went to a supermarket and bought a fruit knife. Outside, he found a secluded spot and cut up his own arms, then called Yang and said he had been robbed at knifepoint of the 750,000 yuan he had supposedly withdrawn for the car. While her brothers took Tang to the hospital, Yang waited for police, who eventually excised the story from Tang. He was sentenced to 10 days in jail and a 500 yuan fine.
