HIPPO | JUNE 20 - 26, 2019 | PAGE 2

It’s a cliche scene. As worshippers walk out of the church on a Sunday morning, one passes the minister and comments, “A nice sermon, Reverend.” To which the clergy-person replies, “Thank you. What was it about?’ There follows a moment of embarrassment, a slight grimace, and a reply, “Well, whatever it was about, it was good.”

The same might be said for the countless conferences and meetings I’ve attended over the years. Gatherings that had catchy titles or themes, intended to attract interest and registrations. When they were over, however, little substance remained and the meeting drifted into vague recollection.

Not so this year’s Annual Meeting of the NH Charitable Foundation. Its theme, “Where Do You Find Community?,” engaged attendees from the very beginning, through the program itself, and out back into their daily lives. It is a question I have begun asking myself almost daily and coming up with a variety of answers, as probably others who attended are doing also.

Most of us find community first in our family, nuclear or extended, in our race or cultural heritage, faith, occupation, profession, nationality, political preference, or cause or vocation. How often, however, do we set out to make community, that is, deliberately commit ourselves to the betterment of something larger than ourselves?

Thirty years ago, people across our state reflected on that question as they asked the larger one: “What is best about New Hampshire?”

In a time before the internet, and certainly before social media, they came together in small groups across the state to consider what made this place distinctive. In doing so, and in the words of their 1991 report, New Hampshire: My Responsibility, they discovered a paradox: “People come to New Hampshire, or stay in New Hampshire, to be independent, We discover, paradoxically, that independence requires a community effort.” In other words, to safeguard individual rights and prerogatives, we need one another, and we need to know that we need one another.

Alan Rachlin, associate professor of sociology at Franklin Pierce University, has noted that American culture promotes two forms of individualism. There is moral individualism “that holds each of us responsible for our own lives, our grit and determination,” and then there is “an ontological individualism that imagines that societal experience is simply the accumulation of individual choices and behaviors.”

What is missing in that view of society? He would argue, I believe, individual responsibility for the community in which one lives. The Gregg Commission Report stated it clearly: “As New Hampshire grows, our sense of mutual dependence must become as strong as our independence, or we will lose both.” That theme sticks with me.

NEWS & NOTES Learn everywhere

The State Board of Education voted last week, 4-3, to approve draft rules implementing the “Learn Everywhere” program.

The program would allow public school students to get credits from accredited programs outside of school, and apply them toward their graduation requirements at their public school. “I am pleased that the New Hampshire State Board of Education today joined with organizations such as the Boys and Girls Club, FIRST Robotics, New England College, the McAuliffe-Shepard Discovery Center, the Aviation Museum of New Hampshire, as well as parents and students across the state in supporting the Learn Everywhere initiative,” Gov. Chris Sununu said in a news release. Mindi Messmer, a Democrat who had a term in the state House of Representatives before she lost her race for Congress in 2018, is opposed to the program. “Educators say it will exacerbate inequities and undercut the entire system. The board admitted they heard widespread public opposition to the program,” Messmer said in her own news release.

Opioid program funds

Local nonprofits that work with opioid addiction may be able to get grants of up to $10,000 from Harvard Pilgrim Health Care, the company said in a news release. Under the Opioid Misuse Prevention, Recovery and Treatment Grants program, the Harvard Pilgrim Health Care Foundation will

offer individual grants of either $5,000 or $10,000 specifically to provide evidence-based prevention, treatment or recovery services. Applicants must be charities working in New Hampshire that help local residents dealing with opioid addiction.

A total of $40,000 in grants will be offered. This is the second consecutive year Harvard Pilgrim has offered this grants program. “Based on the success of our first year providing these grants, we felt it was critical to keep up the momentum and continue to support those organizations helping to prevent and treat New Hampshire individuals and their families affected by opioid misuse,” said William Brewster, vice president of New Hampshire Regional Market at Harvard Pilgrim Health Care.

“We encourage nonprofits in the state who are working in treatment and recovery to apply for a grant. Harvard Pilgrim is truly committed to helping provide freedom from the grip of addiction and give families and their loved ones the hope and support they need to do that.”

Cancer center coming

Work has started on a new cancer center in Manchester. Elliot Health System said in a news release it plans for the facility, located on the main campus of Elliot Hospital, to open in the fall of 2020 with 22,000 square feet, which will consolidate the services and staff in three existing centers. “Today, patients are driving from Manchester to Hooksett, and back in a sin-

gle day trying to navigate their radiation treatment and chemotherapy. This center will bring together Radiation Oncology Associates, New Hampshire Oncology Hematology and Elliot Hospital Cancer Care doctors and staff in one location to provide services that are coordinated,” Peter Crow, a physician at New Hampshire Oncology Hematology, said in the release.

The Franklin VNA & Hospice recently tried a new fundraiser, a tea garden party with donations and a silent auction, and raised $3,000 for its medical and end-oflife services. A spokesperson said they are already planning a similar event next year.

New principals

Manchester school officials have hired new principals for two elementary schools, the school district announced. The school district hired Nicole Doherty to be the new principal at Webster Elementary School, and hired Katrina Esparaza to lead Beech Street Elementary School. Doherty formerly taught in Goffstown and also served as substitute principal and co-principal, according to a district news release. Esparza has served as assistant principal at Danvers High School and is a former high school English teacher.

Prison drug program

State prisons are expanding the types of drugs used in medically-assisted treatment of inmates with opioid addictions, according to a report in the Union Leader. Corrections officials say they have started to provide Suboxone to selected state prisoners in Berlin, and will soon expand the treatment to Concord correctional facilities.

According to the story, Suboxone is used as a substitue for opioids in addiction treatment,

ManchesterMayorJoyceCraig and Congressman Chris Pappas raised the Pride flag at City Hall last Friday, ahead of the weekend’s Queen City Pride event on Hanover Street. The annual event celebrates the LGBTQ community.

and it is one of several drugs that can be used. The correctional system already offers Vivitrol and naltrexone to wean inmates off of opioids, and corrections officials see Suboxone as simply an additional tool for treatment.

An extended release variant, called Sublocade, is also in use, as are two alcoholism-treatment drugs, disulfiram and acamprostate, according to the story.

Treatment also includes counseling inside prisons. Usually, inmates receiving treatment typically have shorter sentences or are soon to be released, the Union Leader reported, but corrections officials are considering expanding the program to more facilities and to inmates with longer sentences, depending on the training of staff to administer the drugs.

DOG RESCUES

The Concord Pope Memorial SPCA and the Humane Society for Greater Nashua are caring for 105 dogs removed last week from “squalid living conditions” in a kennel in Bradford, according to a Pope Memorial SPCA news release. The dogs included 52 adults and 53 puppies, primarily golden retriever and lab mixes. The rescue was the result of an investigation by Bradford police and the NH State Veterinarian’s Office, which is ongoing. Most of the dogs are expected to improve, according to Pope Memorial SPCA.

WATER PIPES

A broken water main under the Veterans Memorial Bridge, which spans the Merrimack River from Hudson to Nashua, was leaking water at up to 75,000 gallons per day last week, according to the Nashua Telegraph. Pennichuck Corp. uses the pipe to deliver to Hudson, but the line is owned and maintained by the Town of Hudson.

Nobody knows what caused the break, because the pipe is difficult to access. Hudson worked with its water service contractor to figure out what to do, according to the Telegraph.

In an effort to reduce crime, the Manchester city government and its police department are experimenting with technology, including training a detective to get information from locked cell phones when authorized and installing two public security cameras downtown — the latter of which has resulted in a lawsuit against the City by the American Civil Liberties Union over privacy concerns.

Public surveillance plans

HIPPO | JUNE 20 - 26, 2019 | PAGE 6

The lawsuit, filed against the city last week in Hillsborough County Superior Court, Northern Division by the ACLU of New Hampshire, alleges that Manchester is planning to install two public security cameras in the area of City Hall and Elm Street, and would violate a state law against public surveillance by doing so. One of the four private petitioners behind the suit is former state representative Neal Kurk of Weare, the sponsor of the statute in question. The others are Holly Beene Seal, Carla Gericke and John Slattery, all of Manchester.

Although the cameras have not been formally announced by the city, Mayor Joyce Craig mentioned the plan during a meeting with the Board of Aldermen April 2, in the context of discussing other police efforts.

“There are two officers that are walking Elm Street from 6 a.m. until 10 p.m. seven days a week and starting this weekend they will be adding two officers on Saturday and Sunday from 12 p.m. until 6 p.m.

The police department is also putting two permanent cameras in the area of City Hall that can basically see far and go close up to keep an eye on what is going on on Elm Street,” Craig said according to the minutes of the meeting.

The ACLU objects to the proposal because such cameras have the ability to see auto license plates, which can be used to identify individuals, said Gilles Bissonnette, ACLU-NH’s legal director, in a phone interview.

“The cameras are going to capture live video traffic on Elm Street, and we believe that’s illegal because they violate a state privacy statute,” Bissonnette said.

The key provision of that law, known as Section 236:130, states: “Neither the state of New Hampshire nor its political subdivisions shall engage in surveillance on any public ways of the state or its political subdivisions.” Several exceptions to this are included, however, including EZPass toll collection and the investigation of a “particular violation” on a “case-by-case basis.”

That means specific, individualized cases, said Bissonnette, “but that’s not what these cameras do. These cameras are monitoring everything outside the context of an individualized investigation, if they are just surveilling for the sake of surveilling.

And that’s exactly what the statute was designed to prevent. … If Manchester disagrees, what they really need to do is go to the legislature and make an argument for why the statute should be changed.”

The city will not have any comment on the pending litigation, said City Solicitor Emily Reese.

Cybercrime training

Manchester Detective Lou Krawczyk, a member of the department’s cybercrime unit, recently returned from a “digital forensics” training at the National Computer Forensic Institute in Alabama, paid for by the U.S. Secret Service, designed to help investigators get data off a cell phone, he said in an interview.

“It’s to recover the best possible evidence from cell phones. People’s entire lives are on their phone now, so there are different, you need specific extraction techniques to get a good copy for court,” said Krawczyk.

A news release from the Manchester Police Department explained that the training was needed because “cell phones may contain incriminating evidence in the form of photos, videos, or GPS locations.

More often, the best evidence is the communication between co-conspirators, in the form of call logs or text messages. The hard part is getting past the cell phone’s security features to recover the evidence.”

With his new training, Krawczyk can better recover that evidence.

“Once we get a copy of the phone, we have some software that allows us to go through and see text messages that were sent, or emails, photos that were taken, dates and times that are all important in just about every type of investigation now,” he said.

Krawczyk said that he doesn’t believe that this type of investigation compromises a subject’s privacy, because the department is still bound by specific laws.

“We can’t just go and look at anybody’s phone most of the time,” he said. “We need either consent from the owner, which we get quite a bit, especially if somebody is a victim, or we need a search warrant that is signed by a judge. So, everything is right out in the open, and it’s up to a judge to decide whether we have the right to go into the phone or not, just as with any other search warrant.”

NEWS & NOTES Q&A

What is the relationship between the state committee and a local census committee like the one in Nashua? Is it like nesting dolls?

Nesting dolls may be the right way to put it. The one that we are forming right now is at the state level — the complete count committee. This will be one where we can bring in people … people from various communities, either geographic communities or population communities around the state, and use them to basically help us identify where the hard-to-count populations are and how to reach them. Nashua is doing the same thing, but simply for their city.

They have perhaps different population centers for demographics, certainly, than the state as a whole, different issues that they may need to have front and center, for instance. They probably don’t have a really large rural population, for instance. The goal … in a lot of states is ... having local complete count committees such as in Nashua getting formed and in several other places around the state.

QUALITY OF LIFE INDEX Jobs increasing

Between 2016 and 2026, employment in New Hampshire is projected to increase by 6.1 percent, according to a new report from the state Economic and Labor Market Bureau. The report also estimates that by the second quarter of next year, more than 10,000 jobs will have been created since the same period in 2018.

QOL Score: +1 Comment: If the latter projection comes true next year, it would be a gain of 1.4 percent for that time period.

Watch the wires

Eversource said in a news release it gets concerned in the summer about foreign objects contacting its power lines, especially things like Mylar party balloons that can conduct electricity. In an email, an Eversource spokesperson said they don’t keep track of balloons specifically, but between May and July last year balloons along with ladders, kites, boats and others things caused 33 power outages in New Hampshire.

QOL Score: -1 Comment: If a balloon or anything else gets tangled in power lines, Eversource asks you to call them at 1-800-662-7764 to report the problem

Phone scams

Manchester Police Department reports an increase in telephone scam calls, and it’s warning the public about the latest one, in which the caller asks the victim to liquidate all bank accounts. Scammers may say they are calling from the Social Security Administration, or another government agency, police said. The victim is told to withdraw their money and send it to the caller in the form of a gift card or bitcoins.

QOL Score: -1 Comment: According to police, persons receiving the calls should be suspicious of anyone requesting payment in the form of bitcoins or gift cards.

NH tops list

New Hampshire leads the nation in overall child well-being, according to the latest Kids Count data book from the Annie E. Casey Foundation. Massachusetts and Iowa ranked second and third respectively. In specific categories, the Granite State ranked second for child health, with component measurements the same as or better than several years ago. It was also second in family and community.

QOL Score: +1 Comment: The improvement of individual family and community metrics was mixed relative to years earlier.

Bridging the gap

Nashua has opened a new footbridge connecting Everett and Ledge streets to Mine Falls Park over the Nashua River Canal, according to the Nashua Telegraph. About 80 percent of the cost was paid by a New Hampshire Department of Transportation TAP (Transportaton Alternative Project) grant that allocates federal funds. Mayor Jim Donchess led pedestrians across the bridge Monday, according to the Telegraph.

QOL Score: +1 Comment: Everett Street, on one side of the bridge, also connects to the Nashua River Rail trail, so pedestrians now have a direct connection to Mine Falls Park.

Celtics tied to most big NBA stories There are two key dates in the NBA summer: tonight’s draft, and July 1, when the business year begins. Both have major Celtics story lines, so we’ll merge them into today’s column so my friend Dick Lombardi the insurance magnate won’t have a stroke over me writing two NBA columns so close together in the off-season.

The biggest thing to keep in mind as “experts” bloviate on ESPN, talk radio and elsewhere about guys picked tonight is that they’re wrong a lot more than they’re right.

I wouldn’t quite call it clueless, but if you look at how they salivated over the 2014 draft class for instance, that isn’t far off. All through that year they said it had six franchise players. Flash forward to now and only Joel Embiid is that. According to basketball-reference.com the other five (see Glossary) have a Hall of Fame probability of 0.0 percent. That’s one out of six.

Two years later Markelle Fultz was the consensus top pick. We heard endlessly about his “supreme athleticism” and his 20-plus scoring at Washington. But how come no one asked why he won only nine games there? Fortunately Danny traded the top spot to Philly, who took Fultz, where he fizzled under the pressure and was dumped after playing just 33 games. Ballyhooed second pick Lonzo Ball lasted two years in L.A. until going in Saturday’s Anthony Davis deal. The C’s took Jayson Tatum third, who’s been mostly good, but that draft’s best player was Donovan Mitchell, taken 13th by Utah. There are many more examples, but you probably get my point. The draft is a crapshoot. So keep that in mind as the yackers shout Zion Williamson is a once-in-a-generation player.

Next is the free agency/trade season, which also has a million stories to talk about.

Here’s a primer for all those big stories.

What Does the Anthony Davis Trade Mean: I think the Lakers got played like Brooklyn in the KG/Paul Pierce deal. Not quite the same, as AD is a dynamic player in his prime and those guys were done.

But, in its desperation to get another star for LeBron’s two-year window, L.A. mortgaged its future for 10 years after that. They now have only three players under contract and just $30 million in cap space. That’ll make it tough to fill out the other 12 roster spots, especially if they sign another max guy as rumors say they will. That will be an issue if injuries hit, which is likely when their best player is 35 and after making the playoffs just twice in seven years with New Orleans the second best player has shown he can’t do it alone. It may work out, but it is fraught with risk.

How Good is Zion Williamson: I’ve only seen him play three times, which isn’t enough. But my observations are: (1) He’s Charles Barkley-like in the open floor, where he passes well and finishes spectacularly at the basketball, which is why many think he’s so great, (2) At 6’7” I don’t see him overpowering the Rudy Goberts and Joel Embiids at the rack as he did to college kids and that’s a big part of his game, (3) They said this about Michael Jordan too, but his jumper is suspect. And remember, the best player hasn’t been taken first overall 60 percent of the time. Call me in five years.

Should the Celtics Keep Their Three Draft Picks: If they haven’t been traded yet, they may have to. But hopefully they’ll be used in deals to get two NBA-ready players. See how below.

Should the Celtics Re-Sign Kyrie: No, because (1) he doesn’t want to be here, (2) the best player needs to be a leader and he’s not, (3) to fit his game, they’ll have to totally re-do the team and he’s not good enough for that, (4) having played 75 games just once in eight NBA seasons he’s not durable, (5) do you really want a “star” who’s willing to walk away with his tail between his

legs after the way he played vs. Milwaukee?

That speaks to his lack of competitiveness.

Add it all up and the question is, should they strangle their max salary cap slot for five years on a guy with those issues? Different games, but Coach B would never keep him because he’s Randy Moss 2010.

Addition by subtraction.

Where Will Kyrie Go: Rumor has it Brooklyn and not the Knicks as delusional NY media has been hysterically writing about all year. But my money is now on the Lakers, where he can be in the shadow of two stars. No triple teams. Less spotlight.

Less responsibility – that’s perfect for him.

Free Agency: Boy did those injuries to Kevin Durant (Achilles heel) and Klay Thompson (ACL) mess up free agency.

It probably means both stay with a diminished Golden State in 2019-2020. Durant in an opt-in red shirt season and Thompson long-term. That leaves the big question, does Kawhi Leonard stay in Toronto or go home to L.A.? Hope he stays put.

The Philly Questions: (1) Do Jimmy Butler and Tobias Harris leave or stay?

(2) Do they really want to trade Ben Simmons because he can’t shoot past 10 feet, a killer in the playoffs? The answers will have an impact on Boston.

What Should the Celtics Do: If Gordon Hayward is 100 percent back, I propose a trade with Indiana to bring back Victor Oladipo and Domantas Sabonis for Jayson Tatum, the 17th overall pick, a sign and trade for Terry Rozier, plus salary cap fillers. Tatum has the highest ceiling, which Indy can rebuild around with Myles Turner, while the C’s get a dynamic scoring guard to replace Kyrie and a versatile 6’11” big who can pass, improves the rebounding and can score, inside and out.

Then re-sign Marcus Morris and use the other two picks for a knock-down shooter off the bench.

11 SPORTS DAVE LONG’S PEOPLE, PLACES & OTHER STUFF

Soccer honors The Big Story – Honors: Since soccer season ended in November, not sure what took the folks at Gatorade so long to name their girls 2018 soccer player of the year. But when they got around to it last week, it went to the leader of the 17-2 Central Little Green, Paige LaBerge. She scored 21 goals and handed out 13 assists while leading the Green to a second straight state soccer title. Not that she waited around to get the tardy award — after graduating in December, she was off to Florida State to get her first semester out of the way before playing for the Seminoles this fall in the ACC. Sports 101: Only one time in history have there been co-MVPs after they tied in the voting. Name the players and the year.

Alumni News: After a bit of a slow start following his late May promotion to the big club in Toronto, ex-F-Cat prodigy Vlad Guerrero Jr. has gotten into gear lately. After 39 games the average has jumped to .268, from its low point of .148 on May 11, to go along with seven homers and 19 RBI. That’s a pace for 28 bombs and 76 RBI over a full 160-game season. Meanwhile Cavan Biggio has

three homers and five RBI in his first 15 major-league games, where the batting average is submerged below the Mendozza line at .158.

.205 – batting average for Red Sox center fielder Jackie Bradley Jr. after a 2-3, one-homer day in a June 13 comeback win vs. Texas that incredibly, in their 70th game, finally took JBJR over the Mendozza line for the first time all year.

Sports Glossary

Top Six 2014 NBA Draft Selections 1st - Andrew Wiggins: Has averaged an uninspired, toothless 19.4 points per game in his five-year career as the T-Wolves made the playoffs just once and he’s never been an All-Star.

Still, despite missing being the “next Jordan” by nine area codes, he somehow got a max deal from Minnesota.

2nd - Jabari Parker: Now with his third team after showing promise with a 20.1 per-game scoring average in Year 3 with Milwaukee. But it’s been all downhill since.

3rd - Joel Embid: Top 5 NBA player on his way to being the game’s more dominant player.

4th - Aaron Gordan: As Frank Broyles would say, “an a-the-lete,” who’s gotten better each year but will never be more than a second-tier, 15-17-points-a-game scorer.

5th - Dante Exum: Injury-prone total bust now coming off the bench in Utah with a 5.9 career scoring average.

6th - Marcus Smart: Is what he is, battler with a boatload of intangibles. The kind of guy winning teams need, but thanks to a horrific career 37.2 field goal shooting average he’ll never be close to a star.

The L.A. – New Orleans Deal: Lakers – Anthony Davis. Pelicans – essentially three lottery picks in recent second overall picks Lonzo Ball and Brandon Ingram along with tonight’s fourth overall pick, two more first-round picks in 2021 and 2024 and the right to swap positions in the first round in 2024 and 2025.

SET UP CAMP IN SOUTHERN NEW HAMPSHIRE Camping doesn’t have to mean a long drive to the White Mountains — there are plenty of campgrounds within an hour of Nashua, Concord or Manchester that can make your camping experience a little easier. You’ll spend less time in the car — whether you’re towing an RV or have your vehicle stuffed with tents, sleeping bags

and bug spray — and more time relaxing in front of the fire. And if you want to avoid planning and packing altogether, you can always camp in your own backyard. Find out how to do that, plus where to go if you want to take advantage of everything local campgrounds have to offer.

Camp at home

Set up a campsite in your own backyard

By Angie Sykeny

asykeny@hippopress.com

Whether you’re looking for some family fun or something different to do for date night, camping out in your backyard is a great way to get outdoors and have a camping experience without having to find a campsite or invest in expensive camping equipment, says Andrew Murphy, director of support services for the Boy Scouts of America Daniel Webster Council.

“We encourage backyard camping, especially if it’s your first time,” he said. “It fosters teamwork and good communication HIPPO | JUNE 20 - 26, 2019 | PAGE 12

skills. It’s the perfect opportunity to bond as a family or as a couple, and it creates a lot of fun memories.”

First, decide what kind of shelter you will use. You can get a standard tent at almost any major department store, or you can “sleep under the stars,” Murphy said, by laying down a tarp and a sleeping bag or loading up on blankets.

“Every good camping experience has a fire,” Murphy said, so figure out how you will build a fire, whether that’s building your own fire pit on the ground, buying a firepit at the store or making your own using a metal garbage can lid or something similar. Make

sure you bring materials to start the fire, such as matches, kindling and newspaper.

Next, figure out the food. Hot dogs and s’mores are classic, Murphy said.

“It’s a fun exercise for the kids to roast something over the fire on a stick,” he said.

A foil dinner is another popular option.

Simply wrap some meat and veggies in tin foil and cook it over the fire.

Plan out some games and activities to keep you entertained. Murphy suggests going on a plant identification walk around the yard, learning how to tie knots, singing songs around the campfire, having a bubble-blowing contest or putting on a shadow puppet show.

While having access to your house and electricity can make the camping experience less intimidating, particularly if you’ve never been camping before, Murphy encourages people to treat the campout as though it were out in the woods.

“You could go inside if you need something or run extension cords, but you’ll enjoy it more if you make it challenging on yourself and plan it out as if you weren’t in your backyard,” he said, “and, of course, leave your phone and electronics inside. It’s nice to disconnect from reality for a while and just be under the stars and enjoy nature for what it is.”

Art, flowers and wine come together in “Petals2Paint” presented by East Colony Fine Art on Wednesday, June 26, and Thursday, June 27, at LaBelle Winery in Amherst.

The annual exhibition invites floral designers to create floral pieces of art that represent art created by East Colony Fine Art artists.

Inspired by events like Art in Bloom at the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston, ECFA artist Sally Shea proposed Petals2Paint 16 years ago. It was held in the ECFA gallery in Manchester until the gallery closed in 2015.

“We’re all still friends, and this show is something that we’ve been able to continue to do, thanks to LaBelle, which hosts us,” Shea said.

This year, Petals2Paint features 17 ECFA artists and 23 art and floral art pairings.

Many media are represented, including oils, acrylics, fused glass, stained glass, pastels, watercolors and raku ceramics.

In May, independent floral designers and New Hampshire garden club members were invited to choose a work of art that inspires them.

“They consider texture, color, size, shape. Sometimes they do something very

literal. Other times they use [the art work] as a springboard and get really creative with it,” Shea said. “It’s entirely up to the designer how they want to do it.”

The floral pieces will be placed next to their respective art works on a pedestal. The only rule for the floral designers is that they cannot use any artificial materials. They can, however, use other natural materials with the flowers, such as twigs, branches, grasses and even vegetables.

“It amazes me,” Shea said. “The art I do hangs around forever. What [the floral designers] do lasts only a few days, but that’s what they’re passionate about. They like to be creatively challenged and think outside the box to create a representation of a fine piece of art.”

The ECFA artists will not see the floral pairings until the day of the show.

“It’s like Christmas morning for us,” Shea said. “We’re dying to see what they’ll do and what about our pieces inspired them.”

ECFA artist Susanna Ries recalls a memorable floral piece at a previous Petals2Paint show that was paired with an aquatic fused glass work of art.

“The person did an aquarium with white orchids inside, with tinted blue water and a live goldfish inside,” she said. “It was a striking piece. We’ve had some very interesting pieces like that over the years.”

Market Days Festival returns to Concord

By Angie Sykeny

asykeny@hippopress.com

Tens of thousands of people are expected to gather in downtown Concord for its 45th annual Market Days Festival, a three-day street festival being held Thursday, June 20, through Saturday, June 22. In addition to the capital city’s numerous downtown retail shops and restaurants, visitors will find live entertainment, more than 150 pop-up vendors, an arts market, a kids zone and more.

This year, each day of the festival will have a different theme. Thursday is dedicated to first responders and military, Friday is about community awareness and Saturday is about families.

“We felt it was important to thank our first responders and the community agencies that help support Concord and keep Concord on its feet, and, of course, the families,” said Dawn Badami, executive director of Intown Concord, which hosts the festival.

“The entertainment is the focus,” Badami said.

That will include roving street performers and live music on three stages, as well as some special events like a comedy show on Thursday; karaoke, a dance contest and an outdoor showing of Guardians of the Galaxy (PG-13, 2014)

on Friday; and a Market Days Idol series each day.

Families can stop by the Statehouse lawn each day for “Downtime with Intown,” which will feature lawn games, arts and crafts, robotics demonstrations, storytimes, face painting and more. In the city plaza play zone, there will be more kid-friendly fun, such as bounce houses, mini golf, giant Jenga and more.

Other daily attractions will include a variety of pop-up street vendors; an arts market where local artists and craftspeople will be selling their work; a touch-a-truck exhibition with different vehicles each day, like tractors, classic cars, community vehicles and emergency vehicles; and tours of the new Bank of NH Stage, which presents its first show, Ed Balloon, on Saturday night after the festival ends.

Grab some food at a downtown restaurant or from one of more than 35 food vendors on the street. There will also be two beer tents.

Finally, the 4th Annual Capital City Classic 10K will take place on Saturday, beginning and ending at the Statehouse lawn.

Aside from the run, all activities are free, and there will be off-site parking with shuttles to downtown running every 30 minutes.

Badami said the festival highlights

downtown Concord as “a destination for arts, restaurants, shopping and entertainment.”

“It’s a great place to live, shop and play,” she said. “You won’t be able to

There are weeds to worry about. There is even one that I fear. But most weeds are just a nuisance and can be managed relatively easily.

Dandelions, for example, are bright and cheerful. If they were daffodils instead of dandelions, we would pay good money to have them in our lawn, returning each year and re-blooming after being mowed.

Yes, dandelions spread seeds willy-nilly on the wind. But if you pull them from your vegetable plot or flower beds when they are young, and after a good rain, you can keep them under control.

Let’s start with the worst weed: garlic mustard. I fear its arrival in my garden. This weed is a biennial, flowering in its second year and then dying. It is relatively easy to pull. So why worry?

This plant exudes a chemical that kills the beneficial fungi that coat the roots of our maples, oaks and other hardwoods. Our trees depend on these mycorrhizal fungi to get minerals from the soil. Without the fungi they decline, and eventually die. This is not a quick death, but our forests are in danger if this invasive weed is allowed to spread. Garlic mustard also inhibits the seeds of many native wildflowers from germinating. I don’t have it, but fear it.

So what can you do? Learn to identify it, and then work hard at pulling it. In the first year it produces a low rosette of rounded leaves with scalloped edges and an indentation at the stem.

The second year it sends up 18- to 36-inch flower spikes with pointy, heart-shaped leaves with jagged edges. The small white flowers have four petals and bloom in clusters about an inch or more in diameter. One plant can produce about 4,000 seeds. And although about 70 percent of the seeds will germinate the next year, some will remain viable in the soil for up to 10 years.

Pulling garlic mustard is easy and satisfying.

Do it now, before the flowers produce seeds. I find a CobraHead weeder is good for loosening the soil and helping me get the roots. But you will have to keep on doing this every year for 7 to 10 years. That’s why the weeds so often win the battle with us — we give up. And do not throw the plants into your compost! Bag and send to the landfill or incinerator.

Another nasty weed is called goutweed (Aegopodium podagraria). There are two forms: an all green variety and a green and white variety often called Snow on the Mountain, which is sometimes sold by garden centers (though it should not be). The green and white one is possible to control, but the all green one is almost impossible to eradicate. I got goutweed when a friend gave me some iris with roots of it mixed in.

The long white roots are insidious — they break easily and a scrap will generate a new plant.

Again, know the plant and recognize the roots.

If you buy plants at plant sales, I recommend you bare-root the plants before planting. Look

Cutting off goutweed blossoms prevents seed formation.

for thick white roots that are not from the plant you bought. Bare-root by removing all soil with a hose and carefully inspecting the roots. Do that in your driveway, not in the garden as scraps of root can start a disaster, so clean up the scraps carefully.

Goutweed grows 12 to 24 inches tall and sends up stems with compound leaves: At the tip of each stem are three leaflets; two pairs of leaflets grow below that. Soon it will send up white flowers a bit like Queen Anne’s Lace. The roots spread fast and far. You can try to smother it with black plastic and mulch, but in my experience it just runs out from under the plastic before long.

Horsetail or Equisetum is a beautiful weed: very fine leaves arranged in whorls around a central stem. It has been growing for about 100 million years — perhaps it was fodder for dinosaurs. Instead of seeds, it produces spores. It can be quite persistent and difficult to eradicate.

Digging it and removing horsetail roots helps, but changing the soil type can be a big help. It tends to grow in compacted acidic clay soil. But according to one farmer I discussed it with, adding compost and limestone will make it less of a problem and other plants will compete with it better.

There are good weeds, too. Plantain may use its broad leaves to smother grass in the lawn, but if you are stung by a bee you can reduce the pain by rubbing a leaf on the sting. It has been used as a medicinal for hundreds of years for a variety of ailments.

Chickweed blooms early when ladybugs need food before aphids appear. They survive on the pollen. It is shallow-rooted and easy to pull up.

Purslane is a fleshy-leafed weed that prefers sandy fertile soil but will grow most anywhere.

Like some other weeds, the flowers can produce seeds in the compost pile — or in a pathway after being yanked out. Its virtue? It is edible. It can be used in salads, sautéed or boiled. Every part of the plant is edible.

The bottom line? You can mow the weeds to reduce their vigor and their ability to produce seeds. You can smother them with a barrier and mulch. Or you can do it the old-fashioned way: digging them out with a fork and a good weeding tool.

Dear Ellen, What a nice piece of New Hampshire memorabilia. I always love to see items from within the state.

Buds Beverage, as it is written on the front of this country store soda bottle display, was a bottling company (Newport Bottling Works) in Newport, New Hampshire. They bottled all kinds of soda starting back in the 1920s. They even did some for the Coca Cola Co. The company was here until the 1970s, when it closed.

Your piece was most likely from a country store that would display bottled soda, and the metal liner was to hold ice to keep them cool. There should be a drain hole inside for draining the melted water from the ice.

Your cooler looks to be in great shape.

The fact that it has New Hampshire history just makes it fun. Soda memorabilia is very

32 INSIDE/OUTSIDE CAR TALK

Long-term parking doesn’t have to drain your power Dear Car Talk: This September, I will be parking a 2016 RAM pickup truck in long-term parking at an airport for 3-5 weeks.

Should I disBy Ray Magliozzi connect battery?

Is that OK to do?

What is the maximum amount of time I can safely leave the truck parked with the battery connected? Thank you.

— Hank

You can safely leave the truck parked with the battery connected until the 115th season of “Game of Thrones” debuts, Hank. It’ll never be unsafe. The truck just won’t start after three or four weeks.

Every modern car uses some amount of battery power even when the vehicle is parked and shut off. There’s the alarm system, stored electronic settings and the evaporative emissions system.

Those all draw power.

If you want to park the truck longer than a few weeks and start it when you

come back, then you have two choices.

Option one is to hook up a trickle charger (also called a battery tender).

That device plugs into a wall socket and “trickles” a small amount of current to your battery, to keep it always topped up.

If you don’t have access to an outlet — say, in a long-term airport parking lot — then your second option is to disconnect the battery.

That’ll preserve the battery’s charge, so when you reconnect it, the truck should start right up.

The downsides are minimal. You’ll have grease on your hands when you go through your TSA screening. And you’ll have to reset things like your radio presets and seat memory buttons. But the transmission computer parameters and stuff like that will reset themselves on your drive home. You likely won’t even notice anything.

So, bring the right-sized wrench with you, disconnect the negative terminal, move it away from the battery and then straighten out that battery cable. Maybe even put a little crimp in it so it’s “metal muscle memory” doesn’t drag the neg-

ative terminal back to the battery while you’re away.

Reconnect it when you get back, and you should be all set, Hank.

Dear Car Talk: When I go to start my car (normally the engine is cold), after I turn the key and release it, I hear a grinding sound.

This used to happen only when it was cold outside, but now sometimes it happens in the warm weather, too.

I was wondering if this could be the starter. I’ve been using my car to learn how to work on cars, and I’ve learned about replacing starters but haven’t done one yet. I don’t want to buy a new starter and try replacing it if that’s not what’s causing my problem.

What do you think? — Don

I think you’re about to get your big chance to change a starter, Don. Maybe you can send out invitations and get all the relatives to come and watch.

Every starter motor has a shaft with a little gear at one end. That gear is called the starter drive.

When you turn the key to the “start” position, that starter drive pops out and engages with a much bigger gear called the flywheel, which is attached to the engine.

The starter motor’s job is to use that little gear to turn the flywheel until the engine starts running on its own — it usually takes only a second or two.

Then, the starter gear retracts, and the engine keeps running.

At least that’s what’s supposed to happen.

If the starter drive doesn’t retract -- or retracts too slowly — then you’ll hear that starter gear getting ground up by the flywheel. Grrrrzzzzzzhhhhh! Sound familiar?

So, you’re going to fix this by replacing your starter. It’s a job that’s within the reach of most do-it-yourselfers, Don, so I have confidence you’ll succeed — certainly after a few tries.

Just remember to disconnect the negative terminal of the battery before taking the starter out so you don’t set your hair on fire.

Peak strawberry picking season is here, and you can enjoy this juicy summer berry at several festivals across New Hampshire, which are highlighting the berry on its own or as a refreshing dessert with ice cream, whipped cream or homemade shortcake.

One of the longest-running and best-attended events in the state is the Hollis Strawberry Festival, returning for its 73rd year on Sunday, June 23. Publicity chairwoman Cathy Gast of the Hollis Woman’s Club, which has organized the event for more than three decades, said thousands come out to enjoy homemade strawberry desserts sourced from local farms.

The strawberries used in the festival are picked from Lull and Brookdale Fruit Farms in Hollis, according to Gast, and are transported to the kitchen at the town’s Congregational Church, where the Woman’s Club has a “hulling party” the day before.

“They clean, slice and sugar the strawberries and pull out the green stem on them,” she said, “then they bake the shortcake with all-natural ingredients. The whipped cream is made on the spot, too. … It can be tedious, but it’s a lot of fun. We spend all morning doing it.”

As with previous festivals, attendees will have the option to order a traditional strawberry shortcake with or without whipped cream, shortcake with or without Dr. Davis vanilla ice cream, a bowl of ice cream with strawberries, or just a bowl of strawberries with or without sugar. For the first time this year, Gast said, chocolate-covered strawberries will also be available. Prices will vary depending on which item you choose.

While you enjoy your strawberry treats, the Hollis Town Band will be performing from 2 to 4 p.m., and other activities will include stories inside the Hollis Social Library, ring toss games, chalk writing on

the sidewalk and other children’s games.

Gast herself will be dressed up as a “pocket lady,” with an apron of pockets filled with toys that kids can choose for a quarter each.

The street at Monument Square in Hollis will be closed down for the duration of the festival, but Gast said that in the event of rain, the event will take place inside Hollis-Brookline Middle School.

Over at J&F Farms in Derry, a strawberry festival is set for Saturday, June 22,

during which there will be pick-your-own strawberries on the farm and fresh alreadypicked strawberries for sale. According to farm manager Melissa Dolloff, that date is tentative and dependent on the scheduled ripening of the strawberries at the farm. Visit the farm’s Facebook page or call for updates.

“We’re planning to have a petting zoo, and also free samples of strawberries with ice cream inside the farm stand until they sell out,” Dolloff said.

From gourmet appetizers and entrees to authentic regional wines, you can take a culinary trip to Italy this weekend without having to leave New Hampshire.

The second annual Italian Wine & Food Phest, returning to Tuscan Village in Salem on Saturday, June 22, is co-presented by the regional television show Phantom Gourmet and will feature opportunities to sample fresh Italian food options and wines sourced from all over Italy. Two sessions are available — 11:30 a.m. to 2 p.m. and 2:30 to 5 p.m. — and attendees are free to roam and sample the offerings around the open area between Tuscan Market and Tuscan Kitchen, which will be under two large tents.

According to Phantom Gourmet CEO Dave Andelman, who works with Tuscan Brands owner Joe Faro to put on the event, the success of the inaugural festival last year compelled them to implement the two tasting sessions and to expand the menus to several dozen made-from-scratch and imported food options and Italian wines to pair them with.

“We help produce it in terms of conceptualizing the menu and what the layout should be like,” Andelman said. “The menu is amazing and will just make you salivate. Joe Faro is like the Italian grandmother I never had. He and his staff just always go above and beyond with the artisan cuisine they make.”

Among the foods Andelman said you can expect at this year’s festival will be fresh lobster ravioli with garden basil and tomatoes; linguini carbonara tossed in a wheel of Parmigiano Reggiano; sweet Ital-

ian sausage with roasted peppers; arancini stuffed with tomato sauce, cheese and peas; grilled vegetables and pesto; woodgrilled shrimp skewers; rosemary chicken and meatball platters. There will also be an oyster shucking station, a prosciutto slicing station and a fresh mozzarella making station all under the tents. And if you have room for dessert, be sure to try some authentic Italian sweets as well, like multi-flavored cannolis, gelatos and more.

To go with your meal, event staff will be pouring everything from red to white wines, as well as a few rose and sparkling options, and even a couple of Italian beers.

Andelman added that Michael Dutra, a musician performing Frank Sinatra tunes, will be there for both sessions. Two bocce courts will also be open throughout the day for all attendees to play.

“It’s going to be a lot of fun just enjoying the day and being around Italian food-loving Phantom fans,” Andelman said. “The value of the tickets is amazing, too, for what you get.”

Alison Hartung of Sandown is the owner of Allie’s Home (facebook.com/allieshome), a small business offering handcrafted herb and spice blends, seasoning mixes, rubs, dipping sauces, jams, jellies and more, most of which have multiple uses and were crafted with the home cook in mind. It all started, she said, about eight years ago when she won a local chili cookoff using her own version of a slow-cooked chili mix. Since then, Hartung has created a product list featuring that mix, in addition to dips like smoky ranch, cheddar horseradish, ginger curry and lemon dill; spice rubs like Jamaican jerk; and cheese blends with ingredients like beer and bloody mary mix.

She’ll normally appear at a few craft fairs per year, but you can find most of her products for sale at Don’s Market (219 Main St., Hampstead).

more authentic and boy was I wrong! Apparently, that is a huge “no no” in the key lime pie world. Green dye is actually inauthentic and a local will call you out, without a doubt.

Whoops.

The website What’s Cooking America sheds light on some of the ingredients and history of Key lime pie. It wasn’t until the 1930s with the arrival of the Overseas Highway that the Keys received modern amenities like refrigeration. Hence the use of canned sweetened condensed milk. Really, it’s such a simple pie.

Now that I’ve wowed you with both my knowledge and lack of skill regarding Key lime pie, let me share the simple recipe we follow in our house. Enjoy!

Key Lime Pie 5 egg yolks, beaten 1/2 cup lime juice 1 14-ounce can sweetened condensed milk Graham cracker crust (or mix 1½ cups graham cracker crumbs, about 10 cracker sheets with 1/3 cup sugar and 6 tablespoons melted butter; press onto pie pan and bake at 350 degrees for 10 minutes)

I have so many feelings about Key lime pie! First of all, it is delicious. Because it’s so easy to make and tastes amazing, Key lime pie is a favorite in our house. But I have a few confessions to make about this pie.

We never use key limes to make Key lime pie! For one, they’re rarely available here in New Hampshire. For another, I really like Key lime pie with regular limes. Did you know that the typical lime in the grocery store is actually called a Persian lime?

It’s bigger than a Key lime and actually juicier. While I may be cutting some corners with my Persian limes, my taste buds don’t mind!

I’ve been known to buy premade crust. I know — a pie this easy to make and I’m taking even more shortcuts? Good grief, I call myself a baking writer? To be clear, I am a “Baking 101” writer so I hope you’ll forgive me. The thing is, when I find a shortcut that works for me, you better believe I’ll take it.

Key lime pie isn’t necessarily supposed to be baked! That’s right, you can eat this pie without the help of an oven. For one, it’s really hot in the Florida Keys so I imagine a no-bake dessert must be really popular. For another, this pie is best cold so it’s light and refreshing rather than heavy and rich.

I once used green food dye to make this

The Northeast has a tremendous beer culture. That’s not earth-shattering information.

That’s about as close to common knowledge as you can get. There are incredible, local breweries opening their doors and offering fresh, delicious and exciting brews throughout the region.

But perhaps no place stands out quite as much as Portland, Maine. (Maybe the folks in Burlington, Vermont, would argue. I can’t speak for them.) Portland is just a beer town.

It’s exciting because I think here in New Hampshire, Portsmouth, is becoming its own beer town. I went on an epic trip to Portsmouth and Portland with a few friends earlier this month with a goal of simply exploring as many breweries and brews as possible — within reason of course.

The craft beer movement really isn’t about drinking to excess, it’s about appreciating great beer from its source, while maybe talking with the brewer, and I don’t know, maybe making a few friends along the way. My only regret, if you could call it that, was that it was just hard not to gravitate toward pale ales and IPAs. There are just so many good ones at pretty much every brewery you hit. Nice problem to have.

It’s the culture of the brewery scene that I love: that you can go to a hole-in-the-wall brewery, try a couple super fresh brews, and then head to a completely different brewery that happens to be located right in the same building to try their stuff. Oh, and then take a one-minute walk down the block, and there are three more craft breweries. That’s Portland. That might just be where Portsmouth is heading.

Here are some highlights:

Patina Pale Ale by Austin Street Brewery (Portland) This is about as good a pale ale as you’ll ever find — bright, fresh, vibrant and just a little sweet. It wasn’t available during my trip but the brewery previously made double and triple dryhopped versions of this brew.

MUSIC, BOOKS, GAMES, COMICS, MOVIES, DVDS, TV AND MORE Carlo Ditta, Hungry for Love (Orleans Records)

Carlo Ditta — not to be confused with the concrete mixing company in Harvey, Louisiana, although it’s very possible that he owns it — first made his mark in the 1970s, when he took soul singer Mighty Sam McClain into the studio to record “Pray,” which would wind up being voted Best Gospel Song at one of the decade’s American Song Festivals. This led to a stellar career for Ditta as a record producer for Motown and other labels, success in New York, etc., but he eventually found his real mission in life: supporting the unknown but great blues-folk musicians of his southern Louisiana homeland. This stuff goes far beyond the T-Bone Burnett mud-blues to which the public has become accustomed in film and such; it’s filthy, raunchy, and shattered, leading off with a version of “House of the Rising Sun” that sounds like Tom Waits with a head-cold and a score to settle. To call this masterful understates its effect. A+ — Eric W. Saeger The Allman Betts Band, Down to the River (BMG Records)

If you ever got to see the Allman Brothers live, I’d be surprised if you rated it anything less than the best show you ever saw.

They basically invented southern rock, as you may know, and they set a standard of excellence for the seemingly endless jam-outs that came to hallmark the genre.

I saw them at Holman Stadium when they were still a solid thing, and I remember it being the closest thing to being in heaven I ever felt at a show. They started playing together 50 years ago, and now the sons of Gregg Allman and Dickey Betts (Devon and Duane respectively) have finally stepped forward to claim their birthright with this, their debut record. The good news: They’ve succeeded mightily. Kickoff tune “All Night” starts off with a rather nondescript boogie-woogie angle, but in no time, it’s suddenly all there, a prog-rock turn of events characterized by warm, irresistible, thoroughly innovative pieces that interlock in the best possible way. This truly is a second coming, and not to be missed. A+ — Eric W. Saeger

PLAYLIST A seriously abridged compendium of recent and future CD releases • London-based electro-dance fivesome Hot Chip lead off our list of June 21 CD releases with their seventh album, A Bath Full of Ecstasy! Ah yes, I remember their third album, Made in the Dark, from way back in 2008. It was my introduction to the wonderful world of “Why do people like this band, like, at all” but I was kind to them, more or less successfully finding a way to look past the album’s hideous bronze-on-dull-cyan cover and simply appreciate the music, which was about as interesting as watching potatoes bake. At the time, it did nothing to bolster my position (“kids don’t care about guitars anymore!”) in the ferocious flame war I was having with former Grateful Dead second-banana guitarist Bob Weir, so I had to lie at one point and pretend that there was hope for no-guitars-rock. I was already ahead on technical points, being that the Grateful Dead were so awful, but yeah, I had to pretend that I didn’t know about Hot Chip and the hilariously boring sort-of-Detroit-house-but-not-even-that-good can of Spaghettios they were selling on that tedious album. But that was, what, 11 years ago?

Since then, an entire generation has lived their lives without having to be subjected to “the Dead,” and the millennials figured out long ago that there are about 2,858 soundsystem bands that are more interesting than Hot Chip, so all that needs to be done here is listen to whatever brain-numbing nonsense is on this new album. Deal? Cool. So, here’s the single, “Hungry Child.” I can actually deal with it, like, it’s deep house, quite sexy in its way, love the reverb-doused acoustic piano, the vocals are super friendly. But there we go again, it took me 90 seconds to think up and type those details, during which time half the song has elapsed, and yet, nothing awesome has happened during that time. It has a nice chill beat, but it’s all Spaghettios and no meatballs, a hookless but survivable little thing you’d hear at Banana Republic Factory at the outlet mall (don’t buy that dress, by the way; it makes you look like a tourist).

• It’s basically summer, which spells one-hit ’90s bands coming to New Hampshire! You missed the Collective Soul tour with Gin Blossoms (they played at the Hampton Casino on June 8), but that doesn’t mean you can’t go listen to their new album, Blood, when it comes out June 21, so let’s preview the single, “Right as Rain.” It’s a hard-grunge rocker with a no-brains guitar line probably stolen from the Rolling Stones, and there’s a touch of Foghat slide guitar in there, meaning they’re probably thinking of going country-western, for the easy money. Don’t hate the player, etc.

• Johnny Depp and his fentanyl-addicted cronies in Hollywood Vampires will release their new LP, Rise, on Friday! The single, “Who’s Laughing Now,” rips off that old “Bang a Gong” song, then Johnny tries to sound like the dude from Primus, and then it sounds like Bauhaus. It’s dumb but not hatefully bad.

• Finally we have Willie Nelson‘s two billionth album, Ride Me Back Home, in case you need some ambiance for your finished basement room. We can just do a quick physical and call it a column: dobro, check. Harmonica, check. Grampa voice, yes. Lyrics about horses, ka-bing. That oughta do it here. — Eric W. Saeger

Put to shame

Abi Maxwell releases second novel, The Den

By Angie Sykeny

asykeny@hippopress.com

Gilford author Abi Maxwell explores folktales and women’s place in society in her new book The Den, published last month and available online and at local bookstores.

The Den follows two pairs of teenage sisters living on the same farm in a fictional New Hampshire mill town 150 years apart: Henrietta and Jane, whose story takes place in the 1990s, and Elspeth and Claire, who lived in the mid-19th century.

The novel is separated into five parts, the first four of which are narrated by each of the four sisters, and the last one in which the four narrations converge. Parallels are drawn between the two pairs of sisters, the main one being that Henrietta and Elspeth are both shamed and ostracized by their communities for their sexual activity outside of marriage.

Henrietta becomes infatuated with a boy in town until, one night, she disappears into the woods. Elspeth and Claire emigrated from Scotland to escape the scandal of Elspeth’s pregnancy out of wedlock.

When Elspeth tries to win the approval of the town’s wealthy mill owner, she, too, disappears.

“Henrietta is this larger-than-life, wild girl … and Elspeth is this brave woman with a personality that women are not supposed to have,” Maxwell said.

“Both are being punished for their sexual transgressions while the men bear no burden for theirs.”

As Jane and Claire search for their missing sisters, they both happen upon a mysterious folktale about another family who lived on the property who were transformed into coyotes.

The folktale was not in Maxwell’s original outline for the book, she said, but she became inspired by an image of a barn and wild coyotes at night and decided to start “writing blindfolded” about the idea and “see where the story develops.”

“I didn’t want to write an entire book about a girl pining for her lost sister. There was some depth missing,” she said. “By having the sisters find these stories, [the book] looks at the concept of storytelling — who tells the story, why do they tell it, how reliable are they, what do stories mean to us?”

Maxwell based some of the book on her experience growing up in rural New Hampshire in the 1990s, on the heels of her stepsister, who is the inspiration for Henrietta, she said. For Elspeth’s and Claire’s story, Maxwell drew from information about her own Scottish ancestors and researched New Hampshire’s mill history at the Manchester and Belknap mills.

Some of the themes in The Den emerged from conversations ABI MAXWELL Maxwell had with her husband during the first five years of their son’s life.

“We talked constantly about the patriarchy, gender roles and sexism,” she said. “Having a child made us open our eyes more to what was going on around us.”

The book is a sobering reminder, Maxwell said, that women today are punished by society for their actions in much the same way that they were 150 years ago, but still, it offers a glimmer of hope.

“We haven’t changed as a culture.

Women and girls still internalize messages that they receive about shame and self-worth,” she said, “but [The Den] is about women who are independent, who carve out freedom for themselves and find their own path.”

[The Den] is about women who ... carve out freedom for themselves and find their own path.

POP CULTURE BOOKS

Red, White & Royal Blue: A Novel, by Casey McQuiston (St. Martin’s Griffin, 432 pages) In an idyllic future United States where a Democratic single mom from Texas won the 2016 election, protagonist Alex Claremont-Diaz juggles the responsibilities of being First Son. Finishing his degree at GW is almost secondary to immersing himself in his mother’s reelection campaign and laying the groundwork for his own political career. If only he didn’t have Prince Henry across the pond as a constant (and bland) comparison to his own charming public political persona.

Alex finds the comparisons as infuriating as Henry’s perfectly symmetrical face — which he may have used on a dartboard once or twice.

After a fight at a royal wedding sends Alex and Henry falling into a $75,000 wedding cake, the two are forced by their respective governments to portray a fake friendship to avoid an international relations scandal. What begins as begrudging social media PR stunt turns into genuine friendship, but neither young leader is quite prepared for that friendship to blossom into romance.

Author Casey McQuiston notes that this story was supposed to be a “tongue-in-cheek parallel universe” to what could have been our own election of the first female POTUS. Although McQuiston clearly draws from the media’s morbid fascination with the personal lives of the British royal family and the children of the POTUS, the main characters of Red, White & Royal Blue are certainly not perfect copies of their real-world counterparts.

She name-drops some recognizable figures like Malia and Sasha Obama and Alexander Hamilton, but for the most part McQuiston develops refreshingly rich emotional lives for characters decidedly of her own creation.

What especially rings true is the pressure of the global spotlight on young adults who are also trying to sort through the problems of average 20-somethings. Not only do Alex and his sister June face intense scrutiny as

the children of the first woman president, but they also experience racist scrutiny because they are half Mexican, on their divorced father’s side. (Part of Alex’s aggravation toward Henry is born from the frustration that Alex has to work twice as hard to get half the respect simply because he’s brown.) Then a quarter of the way through the novel, Alex also comes to the realization that, “Straight people probably don’t spend this much time convincing themselves they’re straight.”

The intricacies of Alex’s coming to terms with his bisexuality are portrayed with warm humor. Because he dated girls in the past, he chalks up male crushes to feeling like the heat is on too high or thinking Justin Trudeau is a powerful public speaker. Everyone discovers their sexuality at their own pace, but perhaps Alex would have noticed a tip on the Kinsey scale sooner if notable gay historical figures were taught in schools, so McQuiston uses Alex and Henry’s email correspondence as an opportunity to shed light on queer erasure from American and British history. Alex and Henry share their favorite quotes from famous LGBTQ love letters dating from King James (who commissioned the church to translate the Bible to distract them from his boyfriend, George Villiers), to Eleanor Roosevelt and Lorena Hickok.

McQuiston breathes new life into established rom-com tropes with this manloves-man romance: going from enemies to lovers, getting stuck in a closet together, and arguing until they share a passionate kiss.

Readers will be cheering on Alex and Henry to make it work despite all odds. (And living on different continents, keeping up global responsibilities, and adhering to hundreds of years of political decorum are some odds.) Red, White & Royal Blue succeeds as a fun romp with witty dialogue and an optimistic happy ending. It shows us how you can’t always plan how your life will turn out, but you can certainly embrace the person you’ll become. A — Katherine Ouellette

• Historical graphic novel: Henniker comic artist and educator Marek Bennett presents his new graphic novel The Civil War Diary of Freeman Colby, Vol. 2: 1863 at Gibson’s Bookstore (45 S Main St., Concord) on Wednesday, June 26, at 7 p.m. It’s a follow-up to Bennett’s 2016 graphic novel The Civil War Diary of Freeman Colby, which was based on the diary of Freeman Colby, a teacher in Henniker who enlisted as a soldier in the 39th Massachusetts Regiment of the Union army during the Civil War. Vol. 2 weaves together Freeman Colby’s letters with accounts from other people affected by the Civil War, some of whom knew Freeman Colby and some for whom there is no documentation that they and Freeman Colby ever met. “I feel OK about doing that [fictional aspect], because even though it’s not a fact that Freeman Colby experienced those things, it is a fact that thousands of people did, so there is a larger historical truth there,” Bennett told the Hippo earlier this month.

Edgar Winter returns to Tupelo amidst tribute project

By Michael Witthaus

mwitthaus@hippopress.com

Memories abound as the 50th anniversary of Woodstock approaches. Edgar Winter sees the three-day festival as a catalyst for his career. At the time, he was a member of his brother Johnny’s band but had no real ambitions of his own. Then he stepped on stage and everything changed.

“I just remember this moment of looking out over this endless sea of humanity and thinking ‘Wow, this is really something amazing,’” Edgar Winter said in a recent phone interview. “Just the whole thing being set against the social backdrop of the civil rights and the peace movement.

Seeing all those people united, brought together in that unique way just changed my whole perspective on music.”

He called it a “transformative moment.”

“I decided I would really apply myself, and that’s when I got interested not just in the type of music that I would play for my own enjoyment — which wasn’t going to find much of an audience — but thinking about communication, other than just something to satisfy myself,” he said.

Growing up in Texas, the two brothers jammed together from an early age. Johnny Winter emerged as an ace guitarist; Edgar Winter did the rest.

“I was the weird kid that played all the instruments,” he said. “I liked to figure out the arrangements and show everyone what to play. There wasn’t any sibling rivalry; I just loved music in and of itself, not as a means to an end.”

His brother, though, wanted to be a star, and desire led him to New York City. Winter followed. He expected the music scene there to intimidate him, but something else happened. He found a new appreciation for his home state.

“I had no understanding of what a special area that was musically,” he said.

“Real cowboys playing country music, authentic old blues guys; it’s close to the

Mexican border, so you’ve got hot Latin rhythm players.”

He also spent a lot of time in Louisiana, with its adventurous music and 18-yearold drinking age.

“The Bible Belt is a couple of notches looser there,” he said with a laugh. “We called the French Cajun sound swamp music, and then the term Zydeco came into vogue. I loved all that New Orleans stuff as well, Dr. John & Allen Toussaint. And North Texas is a great music school, with an infusion of really educated musicians. … It’s all indigenous music. It’s real.”

The most important factor remains his older brother, who died in 2014.

“He and I were so close as kids,” he said. “We did everything together, and he’s my all-time musical hero. If it weren’t for him, I wouldn’t be where I am. I might have been a struggling jazz musician, an engineer, or a teacher.”

Winter is now at work on a tribute album, something he resisted doing for many years.

“I always got the feeling that it was business people that wanted to exploit Johnny’s name and memory and I didn’t want to have anything to do with that,” he said.

Bruce Quarto, a rock fan who made millions in technology and used it to start a record label, changed his mind.

“He wanted to do it for all the right reasons,” he said.

An all-star cast includes fellow Texan Billy Gibbons of ZZ Top, Joe Walsh, Edgar’s old bandmate Rick Derringer, Derek Trucks, Warren Haynes, Slash and Joe Bonamassa. He’s excited to add Buddy Guy and singer Bobby Rush.

“I wanted to do a tribute to Muddy, which I know Johnny would have wanted, and the whole Chicago blues thing,” he said. “I decided to do ‘Mojo,’ which is pretty much a Muddy signature song.”

Also on board for a duet are Keb’ Mo’ and Taj Mahal, along with veteran guitar-

ists Larry Carlton and Robben Ford. There is no release date for the ever-expanding effort.

“Bruce said to do as much as we want; we’ve got 16 songs and may wind up recording more,” Winter said, adding he’d love to get Jeff Beck.

Winter said that his brother’s death was unexpected, and making this album has been a “joyous experience.”

“Playing his music turned out to be a great source of strength and healing to me,” he said. “It’s really something I feel I was meant to do, and I haven’t had that feeling in a long time.”

NEWS OF THE WEIRD BY ANDREWS MCMEEL SYNDICATION

Compelling explanations

The Philly Voice reported on June 5 that a resident of White Haven, Pennsylvania, has solved the mystery of why that state has experienced more tornadoes than usual this year. The unnamed amateur meteorologist called WNEP’s “Talkback 16,” which allows locals to opine on the issues of the day, and left a voicemail on May 31. In his own words: “We didn’t have tornadoes here until we started putting in traffic circles. ...

When people go round and round in circles, it causes disturbances in the atmosphere, and causes tornadoes.” So there you have it.

New weapons

A 47-year-old resident of southern Israel approached a teller at a Postal Bank branch in mid-May, handing her a note that read, “Hand over the money in the drawer” (misspelling the Hebrew word for “drawer”), The Times of Israel reported. As the teller hesitated, he said, “Put the money in the bag quickly or I’ll throw this grenade,” referring to a black object in his right hand. The teller gave him $4,450 in cash, and he left. Five days later, he repeated his method at another branch, where he netted $3,300. Police tracked him through mobile phone records and other clues, eventually discovering the “grenade” he wielded was an avocado he had painted black. No word on whether he whipped up some guacamole while in custody.

she couldn’t get in the plastic car in the conventional way, she put it over her head, Fox News reported — and then got stuck. “There was no way she could get herself out,” her nephew, Matthew Shepherd-Bull, said. After being trapped for about an hour, her father finally cut her out of the toddler conveyance with a butter knife. “Everyone found it funny, even Zoe,” Shepherd-Bull said. “She was a bit panicked but mainly found it funny.”

Enterprising thievery

In the Arctic region of Murmansk in Russia, an abandoned railway bridge was the quarry of ambitious metal thieves who removed the 75-foot-long center span, leaving only the support structures near either shore. Locals noticed the section was missing in May, reported the BBC. And while the span would have weighed about 62 tons, it was estimated to be worth only about $9,000. Russian law enforcement is looking into the theft, but locals are nonplussed: One mused that the remaining structures would be “eyesores” for a long time to come, then shrugged: “Ah, who cares -- this isn’t Germany, and restoring order to the vandalized landscape is not high on the agenda.”

Ewwwww!

If you’re a fan of bubble tea, you may want to add it to your “all things in moderation” list. On May 28, a 14-year-old girl in Zhejiang province in China went to the hospital after suffering from constipation and being unable to eat for five days. Through When ya gotta go...

A 16-year-old driver was pulled over a CT scan, doctors found unusual spheriby the Royal Canadian Mounted Police in cal shadows in her abdomen, reported Asia Manitoba, Canada, on June 6 after being One, which they suspected were undigestclocked driving 105 mph, according to Fox News. The teenager was driving a Chevrolet Camaro, but it wasn’t the muscle car that made him go so fast, he said. He told police he had just eaten hot chicken wings and really needed to use the bathroom. Officers were unmoved, however, tweeting, “Absolutely #noexcuses for that kind of speed.”

The teen was fined and is likely to have his license suspended.

• On June 5, firefighters arrived at an apartment complex in Inglewood, a suburb of Los Angeles, to find a 14-year-old girl trapped feet-first in a chimney. By removing some bricks, they were able to free her after about 20 minutes, and she was taken to a hospital to be evaluated. “A lot of people think it’s plausible to go ahead and get into your house or break into a house [through a chimney],” Brian Stevens, an inspector for the fire department, told the Los Angeles Times. “I can tell you that doesn’t seem to work out for most people. It’s very narrow.”

Good to know.

ed tapioca pearls from bubble tea. The girl reluctantly admitted to drinking only one cup of bubble tea five days before, but doctors said her condition indicated she had consumed much more and prescribed laxatives. One doctor warned that the bubbles, or “boba,” are made of starch and are difficult to digest.

Yikes!

In Caddo Parish, Louisiana, sheriff’s deputies responded to a call on June 10 about an alligator in the middle of Highway 1. As they waited for wildlife removal experts to arrive, the gator, which was about 8 feet long, bit off a section of bumper on one of the patrol cars, WBRZ reported, and moved into the grass with a rectangular piece of the car’s front grill. It dropped its prize and escaped before the animal handlers got there.

Wait, what?

At a Patriot Prayer rally in Portland, Oregon, last August, two protesters took a smoother, shinier approach to their opposition. Robert “Jonah” Majure, 28, and Tristan Romine-Mann, 29, were approached by officers at the rally because they were carrying four 5-gallon buckets and super-soaker water guns, The Oregonian reported. When told to empty the buckets, Majure and RomineMann did so, splashing the officers with horse lubricant (used in obstetric and rectal procedures on large animals) mixed with glitter. Majure and Romine-Mann were sentenced to serve five days in jail on June 7 for harassment.
