Letter from the editor
Ive never been the outdoorsy
type. Impale, clumsy and have a
fear of all insects that can sting, so
I generally shy away fromany and
all activities that require me to be
one with nature (and that includes
picnics and swimming pools).
You can imagine my apprehen-
sion then, when the research for
this weeks cover story called for
me and the Weekenders creative
director/photographer Steve
Husted to venture into the great
outdoors. And to a wetland, no
less.
Though I kept flashing Steve
looks of sheer terror, I had to keep
reminding myself that my foray
into mosquito and bee-infested
grass was for the greater good.
After all, what executive director
Robert Hughes is doing with his
organization, Eastern Pennsylva-
nia Coalition for Abandoned
Mine Reclamation, is incredibly
interesting and deserves a little
attention.
Were all aware of that fact that
our region was known for coal
mining back in the day, but how
many of us really think about it
now? I can tell you, I usually do
not. The same goes for the orange
tint Ive noticed in some of our
local streams.
Thanks to EPCAMRs Iron
Oxide Resource Recovery initia-
tive, I can nowtell you that the
orange stuff is iron oxide, and its
there because of drainage from
the abandoned mines. EPCAMR
is aiming to educate the public
and is also harvesting some of that
iron oxide for use in all kinds of
artsy endeavors, frommaking
chalk to providing it as a resource
for local artists.
At the end of the day, Imglad I
conducted our interviewin the
field, because it gave me a much
better understanding of what
EPCAMRis doing. To learn more
about iron oxide and its uses,
check out our cover story on
pages 16-17.
Nowif youll excuse me, Ive
got some bug bites to attend to

When I was 19, I jumped on the bed
to hug our dog, but scared her instead.
Her head slammed into my mouth and
knocked out two of my teeth.
Hot summer day + 18 cans of
Mountain Dew = tremendous
gas in the ER.
I ran into a horseshoe peg and
cut my shin open about four or ve
inches. It needed stitches. I hate
stitches.
I fell in a massive pothole/
puddle, resulting in hairline
fractures in my ankle. Alcohol
may have been a factor.
When I was young, I accidentally laid
down on a vase that had been put
on a couch and pieces broke off into
my head. At the hospital my parents
were questioned about possible child
abuse.
My mom punished me by making
me clean my room, and I managed to
get my wrist caught in between two
wooden dresser drawers and fractured
my growth plate.
I fell and chipped my front
tooth, but I never got it xed. I
think it adds character.
I fell and broke my leg when I
was only 2 years old.
Inspired by the 1984 Olympics,
I ripped my top lip off while
playing on a jungle gym when I
was 7.
What was your most
ridiculous injury?

news of the weird
By Chuck Shepherd
Weekender Wire Services
THE LITIGIOUS SOCIETY
-- In 2009 Diane Schuler, with
a 0.19 blood-alcohol reading (and
marijuana in her system), drove
the wrong way for two miles on a
New York freeway, finally crash-
ing into another car, killing three
people and herself. In July 2011,
her widower, Dave Schuler, filed
a lawsuit against the state, alleg-
ing that the collision was the
states fault for not posting signs
warning motorists like Diane
Schuler that they were going the
wrong way. (Dave Schulers own
private investigator told The
Daily Cortlandt newspaper that
he tried to discourage Schuler
from filing the lawsuit, to no
avail.)
-- (My) client was devastated
by what happened, said the
lawyer for Jean Pierre in an-
nouncing Pierres $80 million
lawsuit in August against the city
of Newburgh, N.Y. Pierres es-
tranged girlfriend had committed
suicide by driving into a city
lake, taking the couples three
small children to their deaths,
also. In the time before he be-
came devastated, Pierre had been
arrested for failure to pay child
support and for endangering one
of his children (found wandering
the street in freezing weather on
a Super Bowl Sunday), and
friends of his girlfriend told the
New York Post that Pierre con-
stantly abused her, including
immediately before her final
drive.
-- Chicagos WLS Radio re-
ported that a man (unnamed in
the story) filed a $600,000 law-
suit on Sept. 2 against the Gross-
inger City Autoplex in the city,
claiming that five employees had
physically harassed him during
business hours over a two-month
period in 2009. Included was the
mans claim that he had been
given multiple wedgies, one of
which was a hanging wedgie.
COMPELLING
EXPLANATIONS
-- Cicero, Ill., Town President
Larry Dominick, the defendant in
sexual harassment lawsuits filed
by two female employees, gave
depositions in the cases, in
March 2009 and February 2011,
but provided challenging answers
on one issue. Asked in 2009
whether he had ever touched
the plaintiff, Dominick, under
oath, said No. However, in
2011, Dominick (again under
oath) gave a narrative of his
relationship with the same plain-
tiff beginning in 2005, admitting
that he had had sex with her
numerous times at her home.
(Dominick claimed to have mis-
interpreted the earlier question.)
-- Unclear on the Concept:
Nicholas Davis was arrested in a
public park in Seattle in August
while, according to a police
officer, masturbating violently.
The officer said Davis explained,
There just isnt enough free love
in Seattle.
CREME DE LA WEIRD
A female Wisconsin prison
chaplain was charged in Septem-
ber with several crimes in an
alleged attempt to stage a fake
hostage situation with an inmate
for the purpose of gaining trans-
fers of both to another prison in
the state. Prosecutors said the
chaplain, a Wiccan priest named
Jamyi Witch, 52, instructed the
inmate at Oshkosh Correctional
Institution to come to her office,
barricade the door, throw things
around the room, and role-play
with Witch as if she were his
mother. While the office was
under siege, the pair allegedly
had consensual sex, and Witch
supplied the man with drugs and
sang him lullabies, supposedly to
calm him down, ending the dra-
ma (until charges were filed).
UPDATE
The most notorious fetishist
toe-sucker of the last 20 years,
Michael Wyatt, now age 50, who
had been arrested in the 1990s in
Conway, Ark., and nearby towns,
returned to the news in August
2011. Two Conway women re-
ported in separate incidents that a
man had approached them, com-
plimented their toes, and asked to

porting a similar incident, could
not identify the perpetrator.
Wyatt earlier served one year of a

A NEWS OF THE WEIRD
CLASSIC (FEBRUARY1996)
Overenthusiastic Parent/Sports
Involvement: In October (1995),
Richard King, 36, pleaded guilty
to making threatening and ob-
scene phone calls to two boys
who were star players on his
sons Little League team in Blue
Springs, Mo., to get them to
reconsider their plans to quit the
team. According to prosecutors,
King called the boys several
times while he was on a business

Pennsylvania state Rep. Michael Sturla,
an opponent of increased natural-gas
drilling in his district, warned in August
that one effect of the drilling would be an
increase of sexually transmitted diseases
amongst the womenfolk. (He said later
that he had heard that from a hospital ad-
ministrator.)

W
hen Battlefield Band
was founded in Glas-
gow, Scotland, in 1969,
it was at the forefront of a Scot-
tish music revival.
While none of its original
members remain, Mike Katz,
Alasdair White, Sean ODonnell
and Ewen Henderson carry on
the bands tradition, still touring
the world and integrating bag-
pipes, fiddle, guitar and vocals
into old Scottish standards and
new originals.
When the boys first started
way back many years ago, they
were all making it up back then,
which was the same for lots of
American music, like folk and
roots-based music and rock n
roll, said Katz, 42, from his
home in Edinburgh. Since then,
its been 30-odd years and lots
more people playing, which is a
positive thing, and its a bit more
refined.
The whole kind of adven-
ture, for lack of a better term, has
made a lot of people much more
aware of older music in Scotland;
in other words, music that was
sung or played by old people.
Because of Scotlands rela-
tively small size, Katz was famil-
iar with Battlefield Band, which
released Line-Up in July, be-
fore he joined in 1997.
If you play this kind of music,
we all know each other, he
explained. (The bands) always
been a great exponent of playing
traditional Scottish music and
doing things with it, so more so
than being a fan, I would say we
were all kind of aware of the
importance of the band as an
entity.
Katz, one of Battlefields three
bagpipers, also helms whistles,
bouzouki, guitar, bass and vo-
cals. Northeastern Pennsylvania
will get to hear the quartets
unique sound when it performs
at the Mauch Chunk Opera
House in Jim Thorpe Saturday,
Oct. 15.
Of all the instruments he plays,
Katz feels hes best at the bag-
pipes, though that might not be
by choice.
The bagpipes kind of choose
you, you dont choose them, he
said. Playing them is a bit like a
disease, not a hobby. Piping is
like smoking, you cant stop
yourself (playing). I love the
pipes, but theres an awful lot
that goes along with it. Its a
great, great instrument, but its a
very limited instrument.
I love playing any kind of
guitar-type instrument, which is
what I really wanted to do when
I was young, but never saw
myself as being really one of the
great guitar heroes, he added,
laughing.
Playing bagpipes, fiddles and
the like, which some may con-
sider old-fashioned instruments,
allowed Scottish musicians like
Katz to dip into the huge reser-
voir of old material, which Katz
likens to the surge of contempo-
rary American musicians looking
back to this countrys musical
past for inspiration.
Its a very positive thing, he
said. Were now in a situation
where people arent ashamed of
this kind of music youre just
playing it because its great mu-
sic. Hopefully bands like Battle-
field Band, who were doing
things like this a long time ago,
which was bucking the trend of it
disappearing as everything was
consumed by pop music that was
English or American, its now
kind of normal. W

Ultimate recycling
Local organization aims to clean up NEPAs
iron oxide and make use of it
By Stephanie DeBalko
Weekender Staff Writer
R
ight in our back-
yard, tucked away
just off of Dundee
Road in Hanover Twp.,
theres a vast marsh teem-
ing with insects, muskrats
and plant life that beck-
ons only the most daring
of outdoorsmen. Inside
that bucolic setting lurks
something foreign, though:
An orange sludge with
deadly potential.
That sludge, known as
iron oxide, comes from
the abandoned mines that
pepper what is known as
the Anthracite Region,
from Carbon to Wyoming
Counties. Though it is
dangerous to wildlife, its
useful for humans, and a
non-prot organization
known as the Eastern PA
Coalition for Abandoned
Mine Reclamation is
harvesting the resource
for use in educational
programs for kids, making
tie-dye T-shirts, chalk and
powder thats sold to local
artists for use in painting
and pottery.
Its really toxic to
aquatic life and sh life in
the streams, said Robert
Hughes, executive director
of EPCAMR. But when
its sitting on the stream
bottom and you can harvest
it, you can nd multiple
uses for it, like we are.
Hughes graciously
took a few members of
the Weekender staff on a
tour through some of the
hotspots for collecting
iron oxide, including the
manmade Phase I wetlands
in Hanover Twp. and the
Askam borehole across
the street, the Solomons
Creek boreholes along the
Sans Souci Parkway in
south Wilkes-Barre and
something known as the
Honey Pot Discharge in
Nanticoke, which is the
discharge to the south
branch of Newport Creek
that spews out from under
Access Road and weve
got the insect bites and
orange-tinted jeans to
prove it.
CHEMICAL
LANDSCAPE
T
hough the issue of
abandoned mine
pollution is compli-
cated and expansive, the
short story on iron oxide
can be summed up by look-
ing at underground mining.
The low areas in the mines
easily ll with water, and
now that theyre out of
commission, the pumps
that kept them dry were
shut down and water lls
the mines and then drains,
taking minerals and metals
with it.
(The stuff) that kind of
looks like gold on some
of the rocks and the coal
you nd laying around, its
pyrite, Hughes explained.
And that really just kind
of interacts with the air and
the water, and thats what
forms the iron oxide that
drops out. Its no different
than rust coming off your
bike on a chain.
Its pretty devastating.
In Pennsylvania, theres
5,000 stream miles impact-
ed by mine drainage.
Aptly decked out in
orange apparel and talking
animatedly amid swarms
of bees that would make
the average person cower
in fear, Hughes explained
the process that happens in
the wetlands. Essentially,
water is pumped into the
ponds there and then ows
into a lush growth of cat-
tails, a plant that creates
a sort of natural ltration
system when the iron oxide
adheres to its roots.
If I was to scrape that
off, that would be what we
would use to dry, Hughes
explained, referring to the
orange-coated roots of
a cattail plant he dug up
from the wetlands. And
its purely 100 percent iron
oxide pigment. So there are
no impurities or chemicals,
its pretty natural when
it goes through a system
like this. If we were to add
chemicals, it might mute
(the iron oxide) or it might
make it fade out.
THE NATURE OF
EDUCATION
H
ughes and his
non-prot, which
was launched in
1996, operate off of federal
and state funding. From
their quarters in the Earth
Conservancy Building in
Ashley, the group dries the
harvested iron oxide in a
makeshift lab, using instru-
ments that are surprisingly
low-tech when compared
to the complex process of
obtaining it.
We just let it dry out
and it gets the orange color
to it, Hughes said, not-
ing that the orange shade
is called Yellow Boy
Orange. And then the
other (shade) is Anthracite
Red, and its the same iron
oxide, but its heated for

Abandoned Mine Reclamation, holds up a cattail plant from the Phase I
wetlands in Hanover Twp.

one hour in the soil dryer,
and all that does is, chemi-
cally, it changes the iron
oxide to a darker pigment,
so we can get two colors.
Hughes and his staff
then either bag it up to
sell to local artists, mix it
with plaster and mold it
to create fun little pieces
of chalk, like those used
on this weeks Weekender
cover image, or use it to
make tie-dye T-shirts.
This stuff on a shirt, as
a pigment value, its high,
very high, he said.
In August, EPCAMR
celebrated its 15th anni-
versary, and to commemo-
rate the event, students
of Heather Radel at Arts
YOUniverse in Wilkes-
Barre created art out of
iron oxide mixed with
traditional mediums, such
as watercolors and acryl-
ics, for a recent exhibit.
Hughes also took his iron
oxide to the 2nd Annual
Childrens Chalk Festival
Oct. 8 at the River Com-
mon in Wilkes-Barre to
educate kids in attendance.
The small staff at EP-
CAMR works to promote
and facilitate the reclama-
tion of land and water
negatively affected by
past mining practices, and Solomon Creek, along the Sans Souci Parkway in South Wilkes-Barre.
Its really toxic to
aquatic life and fsh
life in the streams,
but when its sitting
on the stream bottom
and you can harvest
it, you can fnd
multiple uses for it,
like we are.
Robert Hughes,
executive director of EPCAMR
their Iron Oxide Resource
Recovery initiative is just
part of what they do there.
Were just doing it on a
small scale for educational
purposes, he said. But
there are probably other
people with more capital,
more resources that could
do it on a much larger
scale than we could. Its
not our intent. Our intent
is to help clean up the
water and to educate the
communities on how to do
it and get them money to
do it. But Id be more than
happy to have a private
venture come in.
Hughes, who has been
involved in mining in
some capacity or another
for the past 20 years, is
passionate about his work.
Thats pretty rich
stuff right there, he said,
referring to some orange
residue left on the road-
way at our last stop, by
the Honey Pot Discharge.
When I see that, I just
want to scoop it up. Thats
pretty sick! W

By Jim Rising
Weekender Correspondent
I
taught a sort of introduction
to computers class at Lu-
zerne County Community
College up until recently. Did it
for almost seven years. So that
means the time I spent teaching
people, mostly young people,
about computers tracked very
closely the rise of social media.
Facebook celebrated its sixth
birthday last February, MySpace
(remember that?) is seven and
Twitter has been around for four
years.
I knew enough about comput-
ers, how they worked and some
history. I was fluent in sufficient
software, so I could impart some
knowledge to some, at least for a
few years. But in the later years
teaching PowerPoint to kids who
had used it since kindergarten
was quickly becoming like
teaching how to make and use
buggy-whips. They knew how
and couldnt see the point in any
case.
Its clear now that for at least
the foreseeable future, the
amount of growth and change in
the what, how and why we use
computers will undergo almost
constant flux. Who would have
thought, seven years ago, about
an iPad, except for future-look-
ing guys like Steve Jobs,
(R.I.P.)? You do have to wonder
who will take up the role of
cosmic visionary now.
The kids I taught were, for the
most part, addicted to Facebook
to the point where it was a tough
thing to get any attention paid to
the front of the classroom. Hav-
ing powerful computers with a
fast Internet connection in front
of them, they were in social-
media heaven.
Rather than fight, I switched
and joined the ranks of friends.
And here comes the point of this
rather lengthy set up. I have as of
today 3,202 friends, most of
whom I wouldnt know if I fell
over them on the sidewalk. This
inordinately large number is due
to me being a Facebook
whore, friending everybody
and anybody. Whats the harm, I
thought? I keep my personal data
private, and you can never have
too many friends, right? Well
Tuesday was my birthday. As I
wrote this column that morning,
in the early morning, I have
received more than 150 birthday
greetings. Its gratifying, mea-
ningless and puzzling all at the
same time. Why would you tell
someone who is, for all intents
and purposes, a stranger, happy
birthday?
And for those of you who I do
know, would it kill you to send a
card? With a dollar or two in it?
I could use $150 about now. W

Even more rants are on his
blog, updated every day that

Friends in
social places
Instead of fighting it, Jim
joined Facebook and now
has 3,202 friends.
Its clear now that
for at least
the foreseeable
future, the amount
of growth and
change in the what,
how and why we
use computers
will undergo almost
constant flux.

novel approach
M
adeleine Hanna is a
college senior at the
beginning of Jeffrey
Eugenides lively novel, The
Marriage Plot, a starry-eyed
English major who just spent
four years devouring British
novels about the romantic trib-
ulations of upper-class young
women and their striving suitors.
As college winds down and
Madeleine heads uncertainly for
adulthood, she finds herself
mired in a love triangle that
might have been pulled straight
from one of her beloved books.
Two men vie for her affection,
both flawed but also with plenty
to offer.
The Marriage Plot is both a
love story and a novel about love
stories: The term itself, academic
in origin, refers to mostly 18th-
and 19th-century novels that
concerned often difficult court-
ships between young women and
their romantic pursuers. They
usually ended with a marriage.
Eugenides uses early chapters
to establish that heady duality,
but then the novels later sections
largely abandon the brainy ap-
proach in favor of a deep focus
on about a year in the life of his
three main characters. In that
turn toward traditional storytell-
ing, The Marriage Plot is an
appealing yarn that may nonethe-
less leave fans missing the more
expansive nature of The Virgin
Suicides and Middlesex.
By shifting toward realism,
Eugenides puts the spotlight
more directly on the motives and
decisions of Madeleine along
with the two men in her life,
Leonard Bankhead and Mitchell
Grammaticus. She meets Leo-
nard in a senior-year class on
semiotics, drawn to the brilliant
biology majors gruff plain-spo-
kenness amid the pretentiousness
of her fellow English majors.
Embarking on a whirlwind
romance with Leonard, Made-
leine is thrilled to be swept up in
the kind of turbulent courtship
shes mostly only read about. But
Leonard, like so many of litera-
tures mysterious male love in-
terests, has a dark secret that only
slowly reveals itself: Since high
school, hes struggled with bipo-
lar symptoms, swinging between
increasingly frequent bouts of
crippling depression interspersed
with outbreaks of dangerously
manic behavior.
Mitchell, friends with Made-
leine since their freshman year,
watches angrily as she seems to
fall under Leonards sway. Mitch-
ell and Madeleines friendship
has been marked by missed op-
portunities and unrequited love,
and he is convinced that they are
meant to be together even as she
grows more frustrated by his
prickly, sarcastic nature.
As Leonard and Madeleine
make post-college plans together,
religious studies major Mitchell
travels across Europe and Asia
on what turns into a quasi-spiri-
tual quest as he struggles to
forget Madeleine. Eugenides
steers effortlessly through the
intertwining tales of his three
protagonists, shifting seamlessly
among their three viewpoints and
overlapping their stories in a way
thats easy to follow and never
labored. His prose is smooth but
never flashy, and his eye for the
telling detail or gesture is keen.
Slowly but confidently he fleshes
out his characters, and as they
slowly accrue weight and real-
ism, readers will feel increasingly
opinionated about the choices
they make.
Its heavy stuff, but Eugenides
distinguishes himself from too
many novelists who seem to
think a somber tone equates to a
serious purpose. The Marriage
Plot is fun to read and ultimate-
ly affirming.

T
he world is filled with
scandal almost every-
one has some sort of
skeleton in their closet. From
the small-town rumors that
travel in whispers from ear to
ear, to the front-page, breaking
news, dirty secret everyone is
talking about, around every
corner you can pick up a tiny
tidbit of information on who is
doing what they shouldnt.
While the majority of what we
hear about anymore is the mis-
deeds of celebrities, its usually
political scandal that is still
brought up from time to time
years after it happened.
Although its been nearly 40
years since Richard Nixons
famous quote I am not a
crook, the Watergate scandal
of the early 70s is still one of
the most well-known scandals
in U.S. history, especially when
the identity of the infamous
Deep Throat was revealed in
2005.
Bringing part of the Nixon
story to the local stage, Little
Shiny Things Productions will
be performing Frost/Nixon
Friday, Oct. 14 until Sunday,
Oct. 16, as well as Oct. 21-22 at
the United Methodist Church of
Chinchilla in Clarks Summit. A
second run of the production
will be at the Phoenix Perform-
ing Arts Centre in Duryea Nov.
11-12 and 18-20.
John Schugard, director of
Frost/Nixon, said he fell in
love with the play the first time
he read it and knew it was
something he wanted to do.
This is a very powerful
story, he said. Sadly, we still
live in an era of political cor-
ruption to some degree. This
portrays a time when we knew
it was happening, a time when
those abusing power did not get
away with it.
According to Schugard,
Frost/Nixon, written by Peter
Morgan in 2006, tells the story
of when David Frost inter-
viewed former President Ri-
chard Nixon in the late 70s
about Nixons entire career in
the White House, including the
Watergate break-in and sub-
sequent cover up.
The interviews are famous
because David Frost got Nixon
to admit wrongdoing and got
him to admit that he had bro-
ken the law and abused his
power while in the Oval Of-
fice, Schugard said. Thats
what made the interviews such
a big deal.
The performance features
Tim McDermott as David Frost,
with Nixon being portrayed by
Bob Balitski for the October
shows and Jeff Ginsberg for
those in November, as well as a
small cast playing Frosts pro-
duction team and Nixons en-
tourage. Schugard said the
events of the play often feel
like a contest between Frost
and Nixon.
At times it really does feel
like a boxing match where here
are the two men in the center
and each has his corner with
the people that are helping
him, he said.
By performing at two differ-
ent venues during two months,
Schugard hopes that people will
take the time to come see the
show, as he said that chances
are it will be the only time its
done in this area and it wont
come around again for quite
some time if at all. And while
Frost/Nixon was brought to
the big screen by Ron Howard
in 2008, he said that people
will get a very different experi-
ence seeing it done by a com-
munity theater group. He said
he feels that there is an in-
tensity to the live theater expe-
rience that film tries to match
but never really does.
Thats what we are offering
that experience of theater
that you take home with you
and keep with you for the rest
of your days. W

Music fans often like to
see creativity and continuity
at the same time and are too
quick to criticize when an
artist strays too far (or not
far enough) in one direction
or the other. Wilcos latest,
The Whole Love, is a per-
fect example of an artist
striking the perfect balance
between those two extremes.
The band makes use of an
eclectic mix of styles cou-
pled with stellar musician-
ship and has delivered an
album which is easily its
best in many years.
The opening track, Art of
Almost, is somehow epic
and minimalist at the same
time, and serves as a grand
introduction for the album
which follows. Tracks such
as I Might and Standing
O have a raw, energetic
sound that recalls the earliest
heydays of rock n roll.
Others, such as Black
Moon and Rising Red
Lung, have a somber, folky
feel that draws from an even
earlier era. Wilco is con-
stantly mixing it up
acoustic guitars play along-
side electric keyboards, dis-
tortion comes and goes and
production gets heavier or
lighter as needed. This never
seems awkward or forced,
and instead is just the band
making good use of the wide
variety of tools which are at
its disposal.
With The Whole Love,
Wilco has been able to go
anywhere and do anything
with the music, yet still
make it all part of a com-
plete whole. This is a mark
of musicians who are not
only extremely good at what
theyre doing, but also love it
very much. That emotion is
so powerful that The Whole
Love feels less like listening
to an album and more like
taking a journey and this
journey begs to be repeated.

Top 10 Local Albums
Hank Williams has been the subject of
much historical excavation over the last
fewyears. Boxed sets presented pristinely
restored live segments fromhis1951syn-
dicated radio show, and just last month
came The Legend Begins, a three-CDset
that contains Williams earliest recordings
as a15-year-old and selections fromhis
radio showof 1949.
One thing the newThe Lost Notebooks
of Hank Williams makes clear is that
when he died at 29 on NewYears Day
1953, Williams left behind lyrics that were
as powerful as any he had recorded, and the
all-star cast here by and large does them
justice in setting themto music.
There are some moments of light
numbers sung by Lucinda Williams and
Sheryl Crow. But mostly this is the darker
Hank, plumbing the depths of heartache,
despair, and recrimination, as on How
Many Times Have You Broken My Heart?
by Norah Jones and The Love That Fad-
ed by Bob Dylan.
Alan Jackson leads it all off with
Youve Been Lonesome, Too, and sets
the tone in the sense that none of these
performances offer radical departures from
Williams spare, hard-country style. Jack
White even seems to emulate Williams
vocal quaver (thats going a little too far),
and Vince Gill and Rodney Crowell recall
Williams Luke the Drifter alter ego with
the recitation in I Hope You Shed a Mil-
lion Tears.
One performer here is far less well-
known than the others, but her presence is
understandable. And Holly Williams,
Hanks granddaughter, acquits herself well
on Blue Is My Heart, with harmonizing
by her father, Hank Jr. (No sign of Hank
III.)

Finding
Williams
Canadian indie rocker Feist earned
mainstream attention when her 2007
single, 1234, was featured in an epony-
mous Apple iPod Nano commercial.
Three years later, the songstress is back
with her fifth studio album, Metals,
which offers a mellow medley of tracks
but lacks the punch to measure up to her
potential.
The album opens on The Bad In Each
Other with horns that complement Feists
uniquely delicate, slightly offbeat voice
and gloomy lyrics lamenting the hard-
ships of a broken relationship.
Graveyard ends with a surprising
choral effect, and her voice really comes
into its own at the end of Caught a Long
Wind.
While How Come You Never Go
There has a good hook, its repetition has
a grating effect that cant even be
smoothed by the bluesy ambiance created
by the combination of horns and char-
ming vocals.
The album starts to pick up the pace on
A Commotion, a menacing tune that
conjures up images of posters embla-
zoned with Uncle Sams face and the
phrase, I Want You, and the fragility of
Feists voice is most apparent on songs
like Cicadas and Gulls and The Circle
Married the Line.
Undiscovered First picks up with a
gallant chorus and messy tambourines,
lending it a careless air that makes it one
of the best on the album.
Metals has a sound and tone that
makes you feel like youre sitting in a
Starbucks, and whether thats a compli-
ment to Starbucks or a sleight to Feist has
yet to be determined. The album is a
competent piece of work, but its merely a
compilation of songs that are just good
enough, not spectacular.

imothy Showalter is a bit
of a vagabond.
First, he left his native
Indiana for Philadelphia, only
to move back to Indiana, which
he quickly departed once more
to spend several formative
years in Wilkes-Barre. Now,
hes sort of settled down in
Philadelphia. Again. The end-
less back-and-forth is enough
to make anybodys head spin.
I had to draw a map once,
for a friend, says Showalter
with a laugh.
On Friday, Oct. 14, Show-
alter will return to Wilkes-
Barre yet again for a concert at
Redwood Art Space with his
band Strand of Oaks, sharing
the stage with NEPA-bred acts
Traffic Nightmare, Halfling
and These Elk Forever. There,
Strand of Oaks will perform as
a three-piece, a recent devel-
opment changing the project
from a solo act into a full
band. Supporting Showalter are
Joe Lazas and Deven Craige,
formerly of the band Golden
Ages. They will accompany
Showalter on a lengthy fall
tour taking the group from
Brooklyn to Los Angeles and
everywhere between and be-
yond, including up to Canada.
The constant momentum of
life on the road is something
Showalter attacks with gusto.
I love the sense of purpose
it gives me, he explains.
When youre a musician, a lot
of time it feels intangible, what
your job is. Its hard to have a
concrete schedule. But when
youre on tour, you know your
purpose. ... Something about
my personality just fits in with
touring.
Showalter is something of a
wanderer in an artistic sense,
too. No roots, no rules. Free to
drift in any musical direction
that might catch his fancy,
whether its blues-inflected
acoustic rock or thundering,
spaced-out doom-metal. The
confessional folk-rock of
Strand of Oaks debut album,
Leave Ruin, quickly gave
way to the effective melange of
stoner rock, shoegaze and
synth-pop that was Showalters
sophomore offering, Pope
Killdragon.
A backing band isnt the
only recent change in Show-
alters act. With an as-of-yet-
untitled new album currently
in the recording process,
Strand of Oaks evolution is
far from over.
How much different Pope
Killdragon was from Leave
Ruin, I think this new album
is going to be equally different
from Pope Killdragon. Its
going in a forward progres-
sion, he says. The only way I
can describe the songs that are
coming out now is that theyre
a bit more epic. They just feel
like youre riding with a bunch
of warlocks to go destroy some
castle.
So much is this evolution
that Showalter says hell have
to completely revamp the way
Strand of Oaks performs live
in order to do the new material
justice. One aspect he wants to
continue to explore is the mar-
riage of traditional instru-
mentation and synthesizers.
People used to look at elec-
tronic instruments as these
magical things, Showalter
says, but they werent quite
sure what to do with them.
They were like wizards toys,
not something you just made
elevator music with. I want to
step back to that mentality a
little bit.
Nevertheless, Showalter
vows that the spirit of the band
will remain the same, asserting
that the music isnt so much
changing as it is growing. With
a hopeful January release date
in mind, Showalter promises
that the fully grown music
will be worth the wait.
For every 10 songs I write,
I throw away nine of them, he
remarks. Its the ones that Im
readying for the record now
that will stand the test of
time. W

GOING NATURAL
When Everything Natural
(426 S. State St., Clarks Summit)
opened in June of 1985, it was in
a class all its own.
Many people thought of us as
fringe or alternative, whereas
now, we are considered avant-
garde, we were cutting edge, we
were ahead of the curve, owner
Barry Kaplan says with a laugh
of his store which sells every-
thing from fresh organic produce
and environmentally friendly
cleaning products to distinctive
gifts and natural bath and body
products.
I like to say we used to be
health nuts now were au-
thorities, Kaplan continues.
We didnt get into it as a get-
rich-quick scheme; to us, it was a
mission, a lifestyle. We wanted to
help other people. Out of that,
the business grew. Were really
here trying to provide tools and
information for people to live
healthier, happier lives.
With that being said, Every-
thing Natural has a string of
events coming up that carries on
that mission statement the store
was founded on while celebrating
October being Non-GMO
Month. (GMO stands for genet-
ically modified organisms.)
First up is Clarks Summits
Second Friday art opening fea-
turing batiks by Judith Yoush-
ock Friday, Oct. 14, which opens
at 5 p.m., followed by a screening
of the 2009 documentary Van-
ishing of the Bees at 6:30 p.m.
The film takes a look at the
vanishing bee crisis and how it
affects peoples health and the
global community. The film is
presented by The Lean Berets
founder Ron Jones and local
member Kevin Rail. Ellen
McGlynn, Lackawanna Coun-
ty Coordinator of the Penn-
sylvania Backyard Beekeepers
Association, will also be on
hand.
GMOs and conventional
pesticide use is killing bees,
causing whats called colony
collapse disorder, and bees, in
addition to being what people are
going to think of as honey,
theyre our pollinators, Kaplan
explains. Many of our food
crops depend upon bees. We will
lose the economic viability of
orchards of all kinds because can
you imagine any fruit grower
having to pollinate every flower
by hand?
An organic food sampling,
including a tasting of five varie-
ties of apples prepared in differ-
ent ways will be held Oct. 15
from11 a.m.-4 p.m. The apples
for the event will arrive Wednes-
day, which will determine how
the apples will be prepared, but
Kaplan says that there will be
slices garnished with organic,
fresh-ground almond and peanut
butter.
We may have baked apple, I
dont know if well do apple pie,
he adds. And apple salad with
organic walnuts, so well have
some fun, creative ways for peo-
ple to taste their apples and see
what kind of apple works best for
different kinds of recipes.

By Ralphie Aversa
Special to the Weekender
F
irst off, Id be remiss not to
thank the staff at The
Weekender for having me
host the Man and Model of the
Year Party Friday, Oct. 7 inside
the Grand Ballroom at The
Woodlands. I had a great time,
and I think everyone that attend-
ed enjoyed themselves. Special
shout out as well to Game 7,
Britt Rice, the Lady Packstars,
and DJ Tonez for some dope live
performances.
After the new Man and Model
of the Year were crowned, I had
to jump from one oh-so-tough
job to another: Hosting Foreplay
Friday inside Evolution Night-
club with Playboy Playmate
Valerie Mason, who appeared in
the September 2008 Playboy,
lived across the street from the
famed mansion and was seen on
seasons four and five of The
Girls Next Door.
Mason spent most of the eve-
ning inside the DJ booth at Evo-
lution, conversing with staff and
fans while sipping on screw-
drivers and shots (Buttery Nip-
ple, the shot, was her preference
for the evening). The centerfold
enjoyed her time inside the club,
but could not get acclimated to
NEPAs 2 a.m. last call. Whats a
Playmate to do when she wants
to party after the lights are up in
the club? Keep on playing, of
course, after hours.
At the request of Mason, The
Woodlands DJs called ahead and
reserved a table at Gentlemens
Club 10 in Wilkes-Barre. The
Playmate and her new entourage
partied until 5 a.m. The follow-
ing afternoon, she was spotted
having lunch on the deck at The
Woods with none other than DJ
Davey B, who would not com-
ment for this story.
OUTASIGHT OPPORTUNITY
It was a surreal moment for
Outasight when he heard, To-
night is the Night in a Pepsi
commercial featuring some of
musics biggest stars, from Mi-
chael Jackson to Britney
Spears.
The first time I saw it, I defi-
nitely got the chills, the artist
born Richard Andrew said on
The Ralphie Radio Show.
Just to be a part of something so
cool and so incredible I just
feel honored.
The commercial airs during
The X-Factor. Outasight,
coming to East Stroudsburg
University Oct. 29 with Gym
Class Heroes, is launching his
career a little more traditionally,
with his touring schedule com-
bined with the Pepsi campaign
and the release of free mixtapes
via the Internet. The latter meth-
od is interesting given that a lot
of artists stop giving away free
music once they land on a major
label. Not the case for Outasight,
who is signed to Warner Broth-
ers Records.
(WB is) super cool, the
singer said. You know, todays
market, the way music is re-
leased, mixtapes are kind of like
a really great medium for artists
to get out there and get exposure
or thank fans or reward fans and
gain new fans. W

hen John Waites 1984
hit, Missing You,
knocked Tina Turner
and her hot single at the time,
Whats Love Got To Do With
It?, out of the No. 1 position on
Billboards Hot 100 singles chart,
Turner bit back by recording
Waites single and releasing it
herself.
One might surmise, then, that
Waites new album, Rough &
Tumble, includes a cover of
Turners Sweet Rhode Island
Red as a sort of coy nod to their
previous distant encounter. But
according to Waite, who checked
in with the Weekender while
home in Santa Monica, Calif., on
a break from his current tour, one
would be wrong.
(My brother) had a live al-
bum, and it was on there, and I
remember one Christmas playing
it to the point we almost wore it
out, he explained. Shes really
something. I went back and lis-
tened to a lot of the Ike and Tina
stuff, and its off the hook. I
mean, its just incredible. Its
better than I remembered it, and I
always had the biggest respect for
it and love for it.
As for Turners rendition of his
single?
I was very pleased when she
did Missing You, and she sang
my melody and lyrics, I thought
that was a huge thing to listen
to.
Waites tour will hit the area
when hes a featured performer at
Oktoberfest at Genettis Wilkes-
Barre on Thursday, Oct. 13. He
noted that he loves everything
about touring.
Its just a great thing to do, its
quite a kick, he said. You wake
up in a strange town, throw your
things in a bag and head to the
airport, next thing you know
youre on stage, but its always
fun. Its never stopped being fun.
I think out of all the aspects of
what music is, the writing of it is
just still a mystery, but the live
performance is always great.
Waites album, on which he
collaborated with Matchbox
Twentys Kyle Cook, has been
embraced by the classic-rock
community, and the fact that
more than half of it was put
together at the last minute seems
to have worked out in his favor.
It surprised me, he said. I
had no idea how it was going to
balance out, but it did. Its prob-
ably been the most critically
accepted record Ive made. Ive
never had so much great reviews,
and a lot of it was made kind of
very unconsciously. I play it
occasionally and I think, Well,
how about that. But I really
dont know how I got to where I
got to, it was necessity, really. W
Waite more than 'Missing You'

WILKES-BARRE Follow-
ing Tom Hambridges solid
opening set, George Thorogood
and The Destroyers exploded
onto the F.M. Kirby Center stage
Tuesday night with Chuck Ber-
rys Sweet Little Rock n Roll-
er and didnt let up until after
the second encore an hour and a
half later.
Clad in all black, sunglasses
and a bandanna, Thorogood gave
the very receptive audience the
first glimpse of his guitar flour-
ishes and stage strut during the
song. A sludgy rendition of Bo
Diddleys Who Do You Love?
followed; almost sinister, with
images of fire projected on the
two digital screens that flanked
the band, the song was an early
highlight.
Welcome to the Tuesday
night rock show! Thorogood
exclaimed before Hi-Heel
Sneakers, a track from the
bands recent album, the Chess
Records tribute 2120 South
Michigan Avenue.
The unmistakable riff of I
Drink Alone started with flash-
ing strobe lights and fantastic
sax from Buddy Leach amid a
throaty Billy Bloughs bassline.
Just Thorogoods crunchy guitar
and Jeff Simons bass drum led
into the well-received House
Rent Boogie/One Bourbon, One
Scotch, One Beer, from the
bands 1977 debut.
The group paid its respects to
Johnny Cash via Cocaine
Blues, and dedicated the fast
and gritty Seventh Son to the
women in the crowd. Bad to the
Bone, arguably The Destroyers
biggest hit, was dirty and exactly
what one would expect
and want the
classic to be live. With-
out missing a beat,
Thorogood and The
Destroyers went into
Hank Williams Move
It On Over, which
ended the set proper.
The group returned,
with Thorogood now in
a black T-shirt that read
Let It Rock and a
black fedora, for the
rousing Tail Dragger,
from 2009s The Dirty Dozen,
which debuted at No. 1 on Bill-
boards Blues Albums. You
Talk Too Much ended with a
big flourish before the band left
the stage, only to return two
minutes later for the show-end-
ing, rollicking rendition of El-
more James Madison Blues.
Thorogood is a showy, yet not
cocky, guitar player, and the
gravelly voice he made his ca-
reer using has held up over the
years and delivered great song
after great song. Mixed with the
keen musicianship of his band,
especially that of Leach, made
for an outstanding night of rock
n roll. W
Above and at right, George Thorogood mugs for the crowd at the F.M. Kirby Center in
Wilkes-Barre Tuesday, Oct. 4.

movie review
P
olitical maneuvering is a
fine topic for a film
unless weve seen the
moves before. George Clooneys
The Ides of March features the
same underhanded tactics and
false idols. Its a film that looks
important. After all, were a year
away from a presidential election,
and the cast is mighty impres-
sive. But since The Ides of
March insists on deeming the
routine as extraordinary, its hard
to care.
Gov. Mike Morris (Clooney), a
war hero and Democratic presi-
dential hopeful, needs to win the
Ohio primary to essentially land
the nomination. Helping Morris
is crafty veteran campaign man-
ager Paul Zara (Philip Seymour
Hoffman) and young press secre-
tary Stephen Myers (Ryan Gos-
ling), a charming hotshot whose
star is rising.
Myers is so popular that the
campaign manager for Morriss
rival (Paul Giamatti) courts the
youngster, promising him that
Morris wont win Ohio. On a
roll, Myers starts sleeping with
his subordinate Molly, an attrac-
tive, young intern whose father is
the head of the Democratic Na-
tional Committee. Since the
intern is played by Evan Rachel
Wood, who perpetually looks like
shes about to star in a remake of
Double Indemnity, its a given
that her presence spells doom. It
turns out that Molly knows Mor-
ris a little too well, an arrange-
ment that could sink the cam-
paign. Thats not the only prob-
lem. Morris refuses to satisfy the
demands of a senator (Jeffrey
Wright) who could guarantee
him the primary. A newspaper
reporter (Marisa Tomei) learns of
Myerss clandestine meeting with
the opposition, a juicy scoop that
suddenly jeopardizes his future.
This great unraveling never
resonates because Clooney (who
also served as a producer and as
a screenwriter) commits the
cardinal sin of filmmaking: He
tells, but never shows. Every
revelation in The Ides of
March involves tense conversa-
tions in dark, lonely places,
which amounts to stock footage
for political dramas. As Myers
scrambles to save the campaign,
and his livelihood, theres no
sense of him discovering larger
truths. Maybe if these didnt
involve shifty motives and lying
problems most of us encoun-
ter on a daily basis the movie
wouldnt feel so gullible. Is Cloo-
ney, who I dont think is in eighth
grade civics, just discovering that
politics is a dirty business?
A cast featuring three Acade-
my Award winners is stuck play-
ing caricatures. Tomei, Hoffman
and Giamatti play frumpy politi-
cal lifers. Clooney is the good-
looking, middle-aged, easily
manipulated beacon of hope.
Gosling, however, doesnt even
have a model to follow. Clooney
and his writers have Myers cagey
one minute, naive the next. Its a
classic example of screenwriters
bending a character to fit the
storys whims. Before he became
a ubiquitous multiplex presence,
Gosling earned his reputation by
playing morally imperfect char-
acters. That Clooney reduces
Myers emotional crisis to youth-
ful hubris and shock is an insult
to Goslings talent and the
audiences intelligence.
In Clooneys Good Night, and
Good Luck, (2005) Edward R.
Murrows stand off with Sen.
Joseph R. McCarthy felt timely
and urgent. Clooney urged us to
take a long look at our present by
examining the past. With The
Ides of March, moviegoers are
left looking for a satisfying con-
temporary conflict when
theyre not staring helplessly at
their watches.

Music on the menu
By Alan K. Stout
Weekender Music Columnist
D
rew Kelly is a young
man that has always had
an inner voice, but
through the written word and
through music, the 21-year-old
Scranton native has found his
outer voice. And though he
didnt begin playing guitar and
penning songs until about two
years ago, he says hes always
written prose and poetry. It was
the day that he borrowed his
fathers copy of Bob Dylans
Blood On The Tracks, how-
ever, that would change his
life.
It made me want to go and
see Dylan, says Kelly. And
seeing him made me want to
change things. It made we want
to start playing music, rather
than just listening to it.
Kelly also names Bruce
Springsteen, Tom Petty, The
Beatles and Dire Straits as
influences and says Pappy
Biondo of the local band Cabi-
net is also a favorite. He adds
that he spends most of his time
listening to Delta blues, and
that he discovered most of his
classic rock influences right at
home.
Growing up, he says, my
dad always played good mu-
sic.
Kelly has already recorded
several of his songs at SI Stu-
dios in Old Forge, including
Song For My Neighbor and
On Top Of The Mountain.
He says hes written about 50
tunes, and that his next step is
to record a full-length album
which hell spread out over
several studios, including
Windmill Studios in Mt. Cobb
and possibly Saturation Acres
Studio in Dupont.
It could be in Cuba for all I
know, he says with a laugh.
But it will get done. Ive got
enough songs to do a few al-
bums, but Im just taking it one
at a time. Im really excited
about this album, because over
the past year, Ive been starting
to play out all over the place,
and Ive paid attention to the
songs that people have really
taken a liking to, and this al-
bum is more or less all of those
songs.
His inspiration for songwrit-
ing comes from many places.
Its everything, he says. It
could be as simple as being on
a bus and hearing somebody
say one thing, and then your
brain just clicks, and you get
into a zone, and you write. I
dont know where it comes
from, or how I come to write it,
but it just comes. Sometimes,
its about personal things. Its
not like Im sitting down at a
table saying, Im going to
write a love song today. I go
weeks without writing a song
sometimes, and they just come
when they come.
Kelly admits writing music
can be cathartic.
Im not crazy, but if I didnt
write, Id be crazy, he says
with a chuckle. For me, when
you sit down with that pen and
that paper, or in front of a type-
writer, its just a good escape.
Its a good way to get all of
your thoughts and all of your
dreams down on paper. If I can
sing it, its a song. If I cant
sing it, its a poem. And if I
cant sing it or read it as a
poem, its just something I like
to read.
Kelly, who began playing on
the streets of Scranton, has
performed locally at the River
Street Jazz Cafe in Plains Twp.
and The Keys in Scranton. On
Friday, Oct. 14, hell be playing
at Arlos Tavern in Ararat, near
Union Dale.
Im trying to launch this
album, and I swear to God I
have the best fans in the
world, he says. I love them,
and I hope what theyre getting
out of the music is that theyre
getting to know me. Theyre
getting a message. Theres
always a message to something,
and its always different as to
what it means to the next per-
son. Im not trying to be fa-
mous. Im just trying to do
something that people can
enjoy and appreciate. W

bitch & brag
By Jeff and Amanda of 98.5 KRZ
Special to the Weekender
Amandas Brags:
There are certain days that are
clear reminders why I love living
in NEPA. The sense of communi-
ty I observed, felt and was a part
of over the weekend is really
what makes NEPA an incredible
place to call home. Saturday was
KRZs annual Bras Across the
Bridge at Kirby Park, and thanks
to the incredible friends and
family of breast cancer survivors
and victims in our area, we had a
great morning and raised thou-
sands of dollars for the American
Cancer Society.
October is Breast Cancer
Awareness Month, and in sup-
port, each year we string bras
together and carry the chain
across the Market Street Bridge.
Its an amazing visual and litera-
lly gave me chills to see it all
come together. The chain of bras
was so long we made is all the
way across the bridge. Most of
the participants wore pink and
came in memory or in support of
someone they know who battled
or is battling breast cancer. The
outpouring of love and compas-
sion in support of those who have
faced and fought breast cancer is
something I was so happy to be a
part of and an incredible
testament to how great our com-
munity really is.
This year, groups from local
businesses turned out in teams to
support women they work with
and some school groups even
took up collections on campus. I
spoke with some ladies who
work at Macys together, a wom-
an who collected bras and dona-
tions from co-workers at JC
Penney and a group of women
who were going to surprise a
co-worker with pictures from the
event after coming in her honor.
How awesome is that? This is
what its all about. The next time
youre reading something really
crappy in the news that happened
locally, just remember days like
this. The brag-worthy stuff. The
days where communities come
together to support a single cause
and new friends are made.
Saturdays event also reminded
me you really never know what
someone is dealing with behind
their outward appearance, and
everyone has something theyre
going through. Thank you to
everyone who was a part of Bras
Across the Bridge. And for those
of you in the fight, keep the
hope, keep fighting, people care!
Jeffs Bitch
Let me state right up front: Im
a casual kind of guy. Jeans, T-
shirt, Nikes, love em. And Im
lucky to work in a career where
nobody seems to care what I
wear in the hallways. But were
slowly becoming a nation of
slobs. I mean, casual is great, but
theres a time and place for ev-
erything.
Lets start with wedding recep-
tions. Thanks to my DJ company,
Ive seen hundreds of receptions
and in recent years, Ive seen
formality give way to jeans,
novelty T-shirts, shorts, flip-
flops, you get the idea. Oh, and
the occasional baseball hat.
Thats special. The same can be
said for church. When I attended
a First Holy Communion service
over the summer, I thought I was
attending the church picnic.
And what is it with women
wearing pajamas as pants? I
mean, do you wake up in the
morning and say, Wow, I look
awesome. Who needs clothes?
And honestly, if its too much
effort to take off your jammies
and put on a pair of pants, Im
kinda guessing hygiene might not
have made the list either.
And lets not forget the wanna-
be hip-hoppers who still think its
so cool to wear pants hanging
halfway down their ass. That
style originated among prison
inmates who arent allowed to
have belts and are often given
prison clothes that dont fit. The
hip-hop world embraced the
style. Hey, if you want to emulate
prison inmates, awesome. Thats
it, aim high, my young friends.
Heres a thought: Maybe one
of the baggy pants guys will
meet one of the pajama girls
(probably at Wal-Mart) and
theyll fall in love and get mar-
ried. Now thats a reception Id
like to see! W
KRZs annual Bras Across the Bridge at Kirby Park
brought out a sense of camaraderie among those in
attendance, which reminded Amanda why she loves
NEPA.
For the celebrations
that mean the most to you.
You want your special event to be perfect and so do we. So whether youre
planning a business gathering, reunion, anniversary or other celebration,
let us put it all together for you with exceptional menus, professional

Carissa
Belles
West Wyoming
Community involvement: I am an
active blood donor and have recently
donated more than a foot of my hair to
Locks of Love. I have also participated in
a bone marrow drive and am involved in
the Colleges Against Cancer organization
at Duquesne.
Hobbies: I enjoy any form of working
out including but not limited to cardiobox,
turbokick and zumba. I also love attending
concerts with my friends, cheerleading,
cooking and quilting.
Claim to fame: 2011 Weekender
Model of the Year and Wyoming Area
2009 Homecoming Queen
Favorite thing about the area: The
area has a lot to offer entertainment wise
between concerts, festivals, etc. Also, the
sense of community and support the area
shows is one of a kind. Last, but not least,
of my favorites is my family and friends.
Favorite movie: It may be cliche, but
The Notebook never gets old, along
with my old-time favorite Beauty and the
Beast.
One thing most people dont know
about me: I had scarlet fever when I was
younger, Im allergic to some apples but
eat them anyway, I never dyed my hair
before, and I excessively face-plant, but
have never broken a bone.
One thing Ive always wanted to do:
If given the chance, I would love to travel
to Africa and ride a giraffe (my favorite
animal). I also hope to become a part of
the FBI, learn a second language fuently
and create my own dream house.
If your best friend were to describe
you, what would he/she say? An actual
friend could answer this question 10
times better than I could, so when I asked
her, her response was: Carissa is the
type of person that stands up for what
she believes in, regardless of anyone
elses opinions. She works hard for
everything she has and doesnt accept
handouts from anyone. There is so much
more to Carissa than most people realize.
She is one of the most beautiful girls in
the world, but she is still humble, selfess,
intelligent and unique in so many ways.

Will
Gordon
Harrisburg
Community involvement:
Volunteer assistant mens soccer
coach at Marywood, 2011 Steamtown
Marathon fnisher.
Hobbies: Film and movies, writing,
running, all sports, fantasy football, and
above all, music
Favorite quote: Every saint has a
past, every sinner has a future.
Claim to fame: None yet, but Im
sure there will be from the lists above.
Favorite thing about the area: The
view of the mountains.
Favorite movie: Pineapple
Express.
One thing most people dont
know about me: I have qualifed for
the Boston Marathon.
One thing Ive always wanted to
do: Skydive.
If your best friend were to
describe you, what would he/she
say? Although his appearance doesnt
show it, Will is a very rough and tough
manly individual. However, he does still
run away from spiders and stink bugs
(but honestly, who doesnt?). He is one
of the most tough and also one of the
most sensitive people I know. He has
both a brain and a heart that are too
big. He is one of a kind....

tech talk
By Nick Delorenzo
Special to the Weekender
I
f youve got a modern-ish
cell phone (and it doesnt
have to be a smartphone),
odds are it supports voice
command of some sort.
If you have a smartphone,
its likely that the speech rec-
ognition features are quite
good.
Yet, outside of Bluetooth
communications, how many of
us actually use the voice com-
mand feature?
My phone, for example,
allows me to dictate text and
e-mail messages, make Google
searches, dial out, play music
or videos, enter a URL or
contact information or run
virtually any app with the
sound of my voice.
How often have I actually
used any of that? I cant re-
member the last time.
Perhaps part of the reason is
that Ive tried with many other
devices and it just hasnt
worked well. Id say, Call
home, the phone would reply
Calling Rome and then pro-
ceed to place a $150 interna-
tional call.
My current device is actually
quite good with speech recog-
nition, but theres still some
reluctance on my part based
upon past experience.
But more important, if you
try to use voice command in
any environment where there
are other people around, theyll
think youre talking to them
(which is confusing) or to
yourself (also not a good
thing). It doesnt matter if they
see you using your phone;
were either wired from birth
or conditioned by society to
react when a person begins
speaking, and if theyre speak-
ing at an inanimate object,
well, theyre just weird.
Apples new Siri app allows
users to make casual conversa-
tion with their devices in
order to request information.
Its certainly a bit more natural
than bellowing Call Five-Five-
Five-One-Two-One-Two or
Greek restaurants into our
devices (and it would raise less
of an eyebrow if you suddenly
said, I could go for some
food). Its a more natural
statement, and it doesnt re-
quire a response from the
other person.
Maybe small tweaks like this
will help ease interaction with
mobile devices.
In my view, whats really
missing here is etiquette. When
is it appropriate to address
technology vocally? Should
there be some distinct way you
start the conversation? In Star
Trek, for example, they al-
ways began each request with
Computer and proceeded
to stare up at the ceiling ex-
pectantly while Majel Barrett
presumably ran a Google
search backstage. Granted, our
computers are a great deal less
advanced (and a great deal less
fictional), but maybe its time
to take a page from sci-fi.
Will voice command ever
really catch on? Maybe, but
only in specific situations. It
would be pretty annoying if
everyone in the office was
gabbing away with their com-
puters all day. W

a Bronx, N.Y., school in 1964. It centers on accusations made

REYKJAVIK, Iceland As a
child growing up in Iceland,
Bjork would compose music in
her head as she walked to school.
The cadence of her footsteps
became the rhythm. The dramatic
landscapes of her homeland
became the inspiration.
In her new album, Bjork says
she fuses that natural world with
iPad apps to invent a music genre
she calls an appbox.
Biophilia and a host of
applications representing tracks
on the album were released
this week and are meant to im-
merse listeners in a complete
audiovisual experience.
Bjork said she sees the struc-
ture and shapes of songs during
the creative process. That led her
to work with a team of iPad app
designers and musicians to chart
out visual representations of the
songs.
The beauty of Bjorks stark
volcanic homeland courses
through the new work, and the
singer said the link between the
environment and music is effort-
less and natural.
My accompaniment has al-
ways been nature Bjork said
during an interview in a boho
Reykjavik theater attic.
In addition to traditional album
form, Biophilia is being re-
leased as mother app for iPad,
and within it, individual apps give
a new dimension to tracks on the
album with interactive visuals.
But Bjork assured fans that
they dont need an expensive iPad
to enjoy the work, describing the
app technology as more like an
accessory.
The music on Biophilia has to
be able to stand on its own.
And despite the iPad twist,
Biophilias music is vintage
Bjork.
With titles like Virus, Crys-
talline and Solstice, the album
embeds nature at its very heart
an enduring feature of Bjorks
work.
For me, to connect nature to
music is a very effortless and
natural connection Bjork said.
Her homage to lightning,
Thunderbolt, is almost sort of
superhero macho, about the thirst
for miracles which we all have.
She described Moon one
of the standout tracks as
slightly melancholic, slightly
possessed. That idea about death
and rebirth which maybe the
ladies feel more than the gentle-
men.
The songs, when mapped out
as algorithms for iPad users, also
function as basic music lessons.
I kept thinking that this project
would be for children, like music
school said Bjork.
So Thunderbolt has a written
structure that resembles arpeg-
gios, while Mutual Core con-
tains allusions to Icelands vol-
canic rock strata that teach simple
chord progressions when viewed
on an iPad.
It sounds really complicated
Bjork said, but Ive seen some
kids play with the apps, and once
you touch them and play with
them, its actually quite simple.
Biophilias music-meets-
nature theme, the reinvented
instruments, the iPad app and the
music lessons for a wired, envi-
ronment-loving audience all
of thats in line with Bjorks repu-
tation for eccentricity.
She describes some of the
rhythms on Biophilia as magnet-
ic liquids, almost like planets
rolling out of orbit, then giggles
if that makes any sense.
Im not your normal trouba-
dour. W
Bjork fuses music,
tech, nature

With her new album, Biophilia, Bjork invented a music

fter a long afternoon
of playing The
Beatles Rock Band,
my friends and I needed
to forage for food. The
only thing that my dining
companions who Ill
affectionately refer to as Paul,
George and Ringo and I
wanted were wings and pizza.
And only one place would
sufce: The Frog Pond.
The Mouth has always
loved the restaurants pizza
but had never tried its wings.
Paul, George and Ringo raved
so much about them that I had
to see for myself what the fuss
was about. The fact that The
Frog Pond won Best Wings
in this years Weekender
Readers Choice poll also
piqued my interested, and we
soon found ourselves at a cozy
table overlooking Coal Street.
Since we were dining on
a Wednesday, the nightly
special was a full tray of
Sicilian pizza for $10.50
instead of $12, so we
immediately decided to get
half with onion and half
without. (You can also get a
half tray or individual cuts.)
Now that the pizza portion of
the evening was covered, all
that remained was choosing
our respective wing sauces.
Paul instantaneously
picked honey mustard, while
Ringo went with honey
barbecue. George chose the
Bull Frog, a butter garlic
sauce, and I couldnt decide
between red garlic, medium or
hot. After much debate with
myself, the medium won out.
Wings, which are sold in
increments of six ($3.50), 12
($6.25) or 30 ($13.50), are
also available in mild, hotter
and barbecue. Bleu cheese and
celery costs $1 extra.
We also ordered the deep-
fried pickles ($2.25) because
they sounded interesting.
They were the rst to make
their appearance, and the four
spears were crisp and dilly and
paired nicely with their yummy
accompanying horseradish dip.
Our baskets of wings soon
arrived, and the four of us
quickly tucked in. Pauls honey
mustard, which, to me, didnt
sound like a very appetizing
wing avor, was actually much
tastier than I expected, with a
nice mix of honey sweet and
mustard-y bite.
Ringos honey barbecue
wings were tart with a slight
tomato tang to them, and
my medium was the perfect
balance of heat without being
too hot and overpowering
(though the wings did make
my lips tingle for a bit). They
were denitely the best wings
Ive ever had until I tasted
Georges Bull Frog wings.
The sauce which had
just enough butter and minced
garlic was scampi- like and
ridiculously good. Like the
other wings on our table, they
were fried to a crisp golden
brown, meaty and exactly how
a wing should be which
is why the Mouth is naming
Frog Pond its favorite wings
in NEPA, hands down. They
are so perfect, actually, that
I want to order them without
sauce next time just to marvel
in their fried perfection. The
bleu cheese was also fantastic,
creamy with large chunks of
cheese mixed in and totally
worth the extra $1.
Though slightly
overshadowed by the wings,
the pizza didnt disappoint.
How could it? From end
to end, it was a glistening
landscape of gooey cheese
that stretched out enticingly
when we separated a cut from
the rest of the tray. The dough
was crisp, yet still chewy, and
the sauce, as Ringo opined,
had a great balance of tomato
and cheese, with just the
right hint of herbs. The onion
side had ample clusters
of diced onion you could
smell across the table.
By the time the four of us
were full, our table was a
glorious war zone of bones
and sauce-stained napkins.
If wings and pizza arent
your bag which would
make the Mouth question your
sanity The Frog Pond has
a plethora of other items on
its menu, from salads, burgers
and sandwiches to stromboli
and round and specialty pizzas.
There is also an ample bar, and
the service is always friendly.
The Frog Pond has always
served one of my favorite
pizzas in NEPA. From here on
out, though, its name is now
synonymous with wings, and you
can bet Ill be hopping in there a
lot more often than I should.

Style files
By Rachel A. Pugh
Weekender General Manager
Halloween ho-down
If you want to look sexy on Halloween, then look sexy but know there are some limitations to how far you should go.
OK
, so Ive had
some dumb
Halloween
costumes back in my twen-
ties when I wanted to look
sexy on Halloween. I was
a fairy and French maid in
the past, both costumes Im
not proud of as I like to think
Im a little more creative than
this. But at the time, they
seemed right, and looking
back, I suppose every girl is
allowed a sexy Halloween
get up during her youth. But
Ive also been Joan Craw-
ford, a bowling pin, the
Statue of Liberty and a lm
noir actress. Im hoping these
somewhat make up for the
itty-bitty vampy costumes
Ive sported at some Hallow-
een parties.
a plunging neckline.
Take, for example, the
Halloween costumes as seen
in todays Style Files.
Lets start with the sexy
Nemo costume. No. Ab-
solutely not. Nemo was an
adorable cartoon character,
and you cant make him look
slutty no matter how hard
you try. Dumb.
The Silence of the
Lambs Sassy Adult costume
What? Asexy Hannibal
Lecter? Are you kidding me?
I have nothing left to say
about it except this: Stupid.
The blow-up doll cos-
tumes: Give me a break. Oh,
how hilarious. Blow up
dolls are naughty, and every-
one will think were pervs
if we go together as plastic
I am totally not opposed to
buying a costume, as I think
there are a lot of clever ones
out there, but as I searched
online just to see what some
of the new styles are for
2011, I found some really
ridiculous ones that I just
had to share. I mean, these
costumes are just plain dumb.
Ladies, if you want to look
sexy, then look sexy. Thats
perfectly acceptable for Hal-
loween, and when else will
you have the opportunity to
wear a skimpy pirate-wench
outt or some sultry-nurse
attire? Its an excuse to reveal
the goods and be able to get
away with it. I get it. But for
Petes sake, dont choose a
stupid costume just because
its labeled as sassy or has
dolls people have sexual en-
counters with. No, no they
will not. Theyll think youre
lame. And theyll be right.
The Sesame Street
Sassy Adult costumes: This
is just ludicrous. Cookie
Monster, Elmo and Big Bird
are from a childrens TV
show and these costumes
dont even look like the love-
able characters. I know two
guys who went as the two-
headed monster (a costume
which they made, by the
way) once, and the word they
kept spelling all night was
boobies. This was indeed
funny, especially if you knew
the two guys, but girls trying
to be sexy Sesame Street
characters in outts that dont
even look like the real deal?
Pathetic.
The Ghostbusters cos-
tume: There were no female
Ghostbusters. Period.
The Teenage Mutant
Ninja Turtle Sassy Adult
costume: This should outrage
every little boy who grew up
during the early 90s. Dona-
tello did not look like this.
He was a ninja turtle who
fought crime, not a whore.
So please try to be a little
creative this Halloween.
Choose something funny,
choose something original or
even choose something you
think is sexy. But leave these
loser costumes on the rack.
Youll thank me 10 years
from now. Trust me. W

SCORPIO (OCT. 23-NOV. 21)
When camping, we should all strive to
leave the place better than it was when we
arrived, or at least no worse. The same
goes for relationships. It may be hard or
even impossible to make everything that
happens in a relationship positive or bene-
ficial, but striving to make sure the bal-
ance, overall, makes the other persons life
richer and happier, will at least set you
both on the right path. There are no guar-
antees in life, particularly in matters of
love, but trying to do right by people in
this way will make, if not happy endings,
at least happier endings, for all concerned.
SAGITTARIUS (NOV. 22-DEC. 21)
Even though, to all our senses, matter
feels perfectly solid, science demonstrates
that it is, in fact, composed of mostly
empty space. Despite that this goes coun-
ter to our own experiences, its still true.
Similarly, the scenario before you, as
improbable as it may seem, is just as ver-
ifiably accurate as the emptiness inside
your average molecule. Accept the facts.
Trusting your gut is all well and good,
usually, but this case is as airtight as it gets
your instincts are misguided and wrong
this time. Being determined to heed them
anyway will only result in seriously pain-
ful (and potentially humiliating) lessons.
Since theyre perfectly avoidably, simply
by recognizing the proof in front of you,
dont force yourself to suffer through
them.
CAPRICORN (DEC. 22-JAN. 19)
You couldnt pay me to jump out of a
plane. Thats just not a thrill Id enjoy, so
itd take preposterous amounts of money
to get me to suffer through it. Im not
embarrassed to admit that Im not as into
certain risks as other very brave people I
know. However, Im confident that the
wildest veteran skydiver would similarly
balk if asked to take some of the risks Ive
cheerfully embraced. We all get our kicks
in different ways. Even if youre convinced
someone else would enjoy yours, dont
force the issue. If they say theyre not up
for it, back the hell off.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
Kids who grow up with creative toys
like art supplies, play dough or building
blocks are probably more likely to be
imaginative, resourceful and inventive
than those who mostly play with video
games and action figures, where most of
the imagination and story have been pro-
vided by someone else. Adults are the
same way. How you experience the world
largely depends on which toys youre
willing to play with. Whats filling your
sandbox these days? How are you spend-
ing your time? How often, in the past
week, did you actually exercise your imag-
ination? It might be getting flabby. Get it
some exercise, already.
PISCES (FEB. 19-MARCH 20)
Opposites may attract, but Im more
likely to believe that two like-minded
people with a lot in common will be more
easily able to make a go of things over the
long-term. However, theres no denying
the magnetic pull of someone fascinating-
ly different from you and no reason not to
believe that something sustainable and real
is possible despite your differences. Rain-
bows, after all, only result as a combina-
tion of sun and storm. Finding the right
mix for you two to produce similarly col-
orful and pleasant results will require
some patience and experimentation but
its there to be found, if youre both deter-
mined enough to seek it out.
ARIES (MARCH 21-APRIL 19)
I absolutely adore your willingness to
stir up shit when necessary and call people
out (hopefully when itll do some good).
However, there are times when your well-
intentioned troublemaking and vocal bull-
shit identification will not accomplish
anything close to what you intend and are
actually more likely to make matters
worse and make people mad at you, be-
sides. Knowing when to shut up and sit
tight is an important part of your personal
evolution. Of course, this weeks a freebie.
Bite your tongue and wait things out. It
shouldnt be too hard but itll be good
practice for the times when its truly a
challenge.
TAURUS (APRIL 20-MAY 20)
Itd be stupid not to close and lock your
front door, right? Im not so sure. After
all, anyone determined enough to get in
will hardly be thwarted by a mere lock,
which would likely stop only the most
casual troublemaker. Your emotional de-
fensive measures are equally ineffective.
You could, of course, simply dramatically
step up security. However, Id argue that
toning things down would actually make
you happier and less stressed. Leave your
front door open sometimes, at least meta-
phorically; youll be pleasantly surprised
by how much more good stuff than bad
enters your life as a result.
GEMINI (MAY 21-JUNE 20)
Unfortunately, theres no insurance plan
to cover your emotions. Wouldnt you be
more likely to take emotional risks if you
knew youd get a big payout the next time
your heart got broken? Of course, thats
never going to happen. Since most rela-
tionships end in heartbreak, such a plan
would swiftly bankrupt the company who
offered it. However, Id argue that every
broken heart can yield a massive payoff,
albeit in the form of wisdom, compassion
and self-knowledge, provided youre de-
termined to gain these things (rather than
bitterness and cynicism). Looking at it that
way makes it a teensy bit easier to take
that next risk, doesnt it?
CANCER (JUNE 21-JULY 22)
Use the right tools for the job. Sure,
scrubbing your floors by a hand with a
dish sponge might eventually make them
reasonably clean, but youll be sore, an-
noyed and bored, for no good reason.
Since a mop and bucket will do the same
job in a fraction of the time, with less
effort, use them. Dont let stubbornness or
unrealistic idealism eat up your time and
energy this way. Theres a way to get the
job done quickly and easily, so you can
move on to stuff thats more fun and satis-
fying; all thats necessary is for you to be
humble and open-minded enough to em-
ploy it.
LEO (JULY 23-AUG. 22)
Imagine you ask an architect to design
your dream home. She comes up with two
perfectly wonderful possibilities: The first
option features one or two massive pillars
supporting the structure, while the second
utilizes dozens of slender columns. This,
my dear, is an apt metaphor for your social
life. Relying on just a couple solid friends
for your emotional needs is perfectly via-
ble, but so is cultivating a wider and more
varied social circle. Either way will work,
of course. As you decide which youd
prefer, please remember: Turnabouts fair
play. That is, its completely fair for any of
your friends to request of you exactly what
you demand of them and get upset if
you dont deliver.
VIRGO (AUG. 23-SEPT. 22)
Stop imagining monsters where there
are none. I can just picture you, house
hunting, finding something close to the
perfect place, but rejecting it because
youre certain theres something profound-
ly wrong with it, despite an utter lack of
evidence. Maybe youre right; maybe
nothing can be this good. That doesnt
mean the heretofore-undiscovered flaws
involve malicious poltergeists, neigh-
borhood gang warfare or carcinogenic
mold. Stop being so suspicious; of course,
if youre determined to find them, there
are problems here, but theyre nowhere
near as awful as you imagine.
LIBRA (SEPT. 23-OCT. 22)
An experienced musician could tell you
amazing things about a piece of music that
youd be unlikely to notice or understand.
A bloodhounds nose would tell him things
about what had happened in a place that
your senses would never reveal. Accept
that youre limited by the nature of your
perceptions, as well as your own training
and experiences, and that people around
you have insights into the situation that are
more or less imperceptible to you. Being
willing to simply take them at their word
will spare you a lot of time and suffering. I
hope youre willing to do so. W

A
dam Richman fights the
food and sometimes food
wins. The host of Travel
Channels Man v. Food, 37,
never backs down from a glutto-
nous challenge, especially if it
involves ground beef (though
pancakes have proven a worthy
foil). We grabbed some time out
of the New Yorkers day to find
out how he manages to get all
that stuff down his gullet and
unearth his top dining spots
across the country on Man v.
Food Nation.
How do you handle the chal-
lenges with such absolute lack
of portion control?
RICHMAN: So far, so good. I
dont believe in forcing myself to
throw up. Thats really, really
dangerous. Id rather feel uncom-
fortable, then go to my doctor
and do cleanses. I do get rid of
the food, but in a healthy, physi-
cian-sanctioned way. I stay very
vigilant.
Can you name some top
spots youve visited?
RICHMAN: There are so, so
many. Sometimes its a great
eating city, but Im not necessar-
ily super into the city itself. Or I
love the city, but the food may
not be my cup of tea. Charleston,
S.C., is beautiful. Great food.
Super affordable. And as a single
man, I can say very lovely wom-
en. Austin, Texas, is magic in
every way. To the degree that Im
thinking of moving there.
Can you pick a favorite,
food-wise?
RICHMAN: I always love
filming in Hawaii Its one of
the most fascinating combina-
tions of ever-evolving cultures in
any one given place. Incredibly
fertile soil. A wide variety of
produce, wide variety of agricul-
ture. Incredible seafood sur-
rounding you in this 360-degree
way. There are so many traditions
brought to bear: Hawaiian-Chi-
nese, pure Hawaiian, Hawaiian-
Japanese, Hawaiian-Latin, Irish
heritage, stuff from the mainland,
fusion and so on.
Do you cook for yourself?
RICHMAN: Im on the road
so much I seldom get to cook. I
eat a lot of takeout: Sushi, lots of
salads, vegetarian. Theres a
farmers market near my house
with great lettuces and heirloom
tomatoes.
What do fans say when they
see you?
RICHMAN: It depends. I get:
I love the show, bro! or Youre
a wild man! Occasionally I get
marriage proposals, which is
always fun. I get the knuckle-
heads who want to challenge me.
Restaurant owners invite me in
just to try their food. Its great
helping the independent business
owner, especially in this econom-
ic climate. Other people are
jealous. Can you just put me in
your suitcase? Its nice when
people realize its a journey about
the deliciousness of food, not just
a spectacle.
Whats the best part of your
job?
RICHMAN: The single best
compliment I can receive is when
a parent comes up to me and
says, I love having a show we
can watch with the whole fam-
ily. If someone has M V. F
night and it gets their kid to eat
their vegetables, that means the
world to me. W

Richman's
fare fight

P
ictured in this weeks photo
are some people who make
every day a good day
even in a year that found us with
an earthquake, a hurricane, a
tropical storm and a major flood
in the Wyoming Valley. These
people keep their eyes on the
goal and know that what they do
is greater than just getting on
their motorcycles and riding for
fun. There are kids out there who
dont know these people exist,
but will remember them long
after the Christmas tree has been
taken down and the lights put
away for the season.
Each year, the Wyoming Val-
ley Motorcycle Club (WVMC)
seems to have these people as
members in abundance. This is a
follow up on the 4th annual
Bikes for Tykes Run story we ran
on Sept. 13. This is a story about
ordinary people who care enough
about this community to go
above and beyond the normal
expectations of bikers. And we
all know that bikers have the
biggest, softest hearts of any
group! This year, and the trage-
dies weve been through as a
community, make this an even
more special event.
The WVMC Bikes 4 Tykes
motorcycle fundraiser was the
idea of Robert Lonsdale, who is
one of the Wyoming Valley Mo-
torcycle Clubs past presidents,
says Dave Hooper, current presi-
dent of the WVMC. It was
created to replace the WVMC
Teddy Bear Run which had to be
discontinued due to insurance
liability reasons with Wilkes-
Barre City Police Department.
Hooper says the run is present-
ed in memory of Big George
Thompson, a club member who
passed away from injuries sus-
tained in a motorcycle accident.
All the proceeds from the run
go toward holding a Christmas
party and giving bicycles to
underprivileged children of the
Wyoming Valley with the help of
Catholic Social Services. The
club purchases the bikes, and
CSS chooses the children who
are involved with its agency.
The Christmas party, com-
plete with Santa, reindeer and
elves is held at the Ashley Fire-
mens Hall, which is donated to
WVMC by the gracious Ashley
Fire Department, Hooper shares.
Aside from the money raised
directly by the WVMC, other
people, agencies and businesses
helped out.
Seeds of Abraham Motorcy-
cle Club and individual WVMC
club members donated money,
Hooper says. WVMC member
Jim Gill raised money with a
dress-down day at his place of
employment, Intermetro Industri-
es. His wife, Carol, raised money
with donations from her place of
employment, Kingston Surgery
Center/Eyecare Specialists.
In addition, Tommy Boys Bar
and Grill in Nanticoke and Indian
Lake Inn in Bear Creek sold
donation cards for the event
while Good-Fellos Food & Spirit
in Pittston donated complimen-
tary food, drink specials and their
establishment for the end loca-
tion of the ride.
This event would never be the
great success that it is without
their help and participation,
Hooper says. Last year we fell a
little short on participation, but
we were fortunately able to get a
lot of help with a donation from
(the) Valley with a Heart.
Hooper feels proud to follow
in Lonsdales footsteps with the
help of club members to continue
this worthwhile event.
It gives great pleasure to see
the excitement and big smile on a
kids face when they place their
hands on the handlebars of these
bikes kind of like when we
place our hands on the handle-
bars of our bikes. W
WVMC continues
to help tykes
Pictured above are WVMC President Dave Hooper, Carol
and Jim Gill and WVMC Treasurer Jim Landi. This
years event raised $3,500.
It gives great pleasure to see the excite-
ment and big smile on a kids face when
they place their hands on the handlebars of
these bikes kind of like when we place
our hands on the handlebars of our bikes.

Ride of
the Week
I always wanted to own a car from 1967, the year I
was born, says Bevan. And what better car from the
60s to own than a Mustang?
Bevan hasnt done all that much to his Mustang.
The original color was black, I just repainted it and
added the red stripe down the bottom to match the red
interior. Also, it didnt have original Mustang hubcaps,
so I went out and found some and cleaned and restored
them. I also added the louvered window in the back.
I love owning a Mustang when you do its like
you become an instant member of a group of friends.
Everywhere you go people come up and talk to you. Its
great. W

sorry mom&dad
By Justin Brown
Weekender Correspondent
E
ver hear the phrase the
customer is always right?
I hate it. So does anyone
else who has ever waited tables.
Dont get me wrong, its the best
job a college student can have
teaches you how to balance
priorities, works around your
school schedule, is the ultimate
source of beer money but be
honest, the customer is not al-
ways right. Here are 10 examples
dedicated to anyone who has
ever served before:
1. When a server comes to
greet you, let them introduce
themselves. When your server
says Hi, my name is and
you interrupt them by shouting,
Coke, no ice! its not only
rude as f--k, but it makes them
hate you instantly.
2. You look pathetic when you
ask your server how much a
margarita is. Odds are, if you
have to ask, you probably cant
afford it. Its not like its going to
cost $100. You might as well
have Im a cheap bastard who
wont tip written on your fore-
head in black tar!
3. When another server deliv-
ers your food, dont be an ass-
hole and ask them to get you
something. They have tables of
their own to worry about.
4. Dont get pissed off at your
server if your food doesnt come
out right. Remember this: They
dont cook your f--king food!
5. When you have dirty dishes
on your table, wait for your
server to pick them up. Dont
pile them on a nearby clean
table. What do you need the
space for so badly? Are you
planning on lying down on the
table?
6. Be polite to your server.
When youre rude to them, they
go out for drinks after and they
share stories about people like
you.
7. Just because a place has
free bread, doesnt mean you
have to eat it like its a food-
eating contest. The only recog-
nition youll get is them talking
shit about you in the back.
8. They see you pull out the
tip calculator, and it makes you
look poor, pathetic and unedu-
cated. If you cant figure out 15
to 20 percent in your head,
youre as much of a joke as
Why did the chicken cross the
road?
9. If you cant afford to tip,
eat at McDonalds. Servers never
forget the face of someone who
doesnt tip.
10. When you pay, leave!
Dont sit around for a half hour
taking up their table. Its rude.
Though the customer may
always win, I can say from expe-
rience, the server is always right
W
The server is
always right
Its probably not a good idea to aggravate the person
handling your food.
