Letter from the editor
I was a huge fan
of The Sopranos,
but mostly just
seasons one through
three. After the
brilliance that was
the Pine Barrens
episode, for me, the
show just seemed to
lose its magic
and momentum.
And dont even get
me started on the
sixth season and the
dull thud that was
its final episode.
I might even
blame the show for
making me hate
Dont Stop Belie-
vin, a song I once
loved (well, its either The
Sopranos or Glee, actually,
but lets not point fingers too
much).
The reason Im bringing up
The Sopranos, four-plus
years after that last, terrible
episode, is because the story
thats at the heart of this
weeks cover story, The Al-
tos, is loosely based on the
show. The cool thing about
The Altos is that the audi-
ence gets to help solve the
murder of Tony Alto at
least we know what happened
to him! Intrigued? Read more
on p. 14.
Also in this weeks issue,
weve got an interview with
some guy named Alice Cooper
(p. 18), Green Piece tells us
which celebrities are the green-
est (p. 32), Style Files in-
troduces you to a new NEPA
boutique (p. 49) and Justin has
big dreams to continue his
stardom in Sorry Mom &
Dad (p. 59).
As always, thanks for read-
ing! Now if youll excuse me,
Ive got a Journey song to get
out of my head

PENS ON DISPLAY
The Wilkes-Barre/Scranton
Penguins will host Pens-Fest
2011 Friday, Aug. 19 from 4-9
p.m. at the Ice Rink at Coal
Street (38 Coal St., Wilkes-
Barre).
Coming off of our best season
in team history, we hope that this
event is the first of many that
will bring our fan base together,
expand it, and get everyone excit-
ed as our 13th season fast ap-
proaches, said Penguins CEO
Jeff Barrett in a press release.
Pens-Fest 2011 includes kids
activities, The Pennsylvania
National Guards sports trailer,
two free public skating sessions,
music by Tom Graham and an
autograph signing with returning
Penguins defenseman Joey Mor-
mina and forward Ryan Schnell
inside the Penguins Team Store,
where the teams 2011-12 third
jersey will be on display.
Outdoor games and activities
will be from 4-8 p.m., while the
public skating sessions will be
from 4-5:30 p.m. and 7-9 p.m.
Graham will play from 5:30-8
p.m. and the autograph session is
from 6-8 p.m.
For info, call 570.208.PENS.
GOT BAD KIDS?
Lifetime is launching a new
reality series, Americas Super-
nanny, which will be the first
true U.S. version of the popular
Supernanny series that debuted
in the U.K. in 2004 coming
stateside on ABC. The show will
feature an American home-
grown nanny, according to an
e-mail from one of the shows
producers, who are now casting
families to take part in the show.
The search will bring the team
to Pennsylvania in the coming
weeks, and unlike American
Idol and similar shows, Amer-
icas Supernanny will not have
an open casting call.
After pre-interviewing on the
phone, we plan to go to each
familys home and meet them on
camera for awhile, said Chris
Hazel, the shows casting pro-
ducer. We film the whole family
in their home environment, basi-
cally shooting a mini sample
episode to present to the pro-
ducers when we return to Los
Angeles.
Interested families are encour-
aged to e-mail the casting team at
chazel@shedmediaus.com and
tell them why you need help
along with a recent family photo.
The team will then try to sched-
ule the in-home interviews when
it arrives in Pennsylvania. For
more info on the show, visit
mylifetime.com.
DOWNTOWN GETS A
DRIVE-IN SORT OF
Main Street Scranton, a
project of Scranton Tomorrow,
will present the Drive In
Downtown outdoor movie

Featured movies are Ferris
Buellers Day Off (Aug. 18),
Rudy (Aug. 25) and Grease

KEEPINGGIRLS ABREAST
Berjuan Toys is already selling
its Breast Milk Baby online ($70)
and expects to have it in stores
later this year. The doll works by
the child-mother donning a
halter top with flowers positioned
as nipples, and when the baby
comes into contact with the a
flower, sensors mimic sucking
sounds. Although dolls that dem-
onstrate toileting functions are
already on the market, breast-
feeding activists are more enthu-
siastic about this one, hopeful that
girls comfort with breastfeeding
will result in decreased bottle-
feeding later on. (Opponents have
denounced the doll as forcing
girls to grow up too soon and
with choices too complicated for
their age, which according to the
manufacturer is as young as 3.)
THE CONTINUINGCRISIS
-- Frances Ragusa, 75, was
back in court in Brooklyn in June
claiming child support she said
was never paid by husband Philip
Ragusa, 77, in their divorce set-
tlement of 33 years ago. (The
children, of course, long ago
became adults, but the $14,000
judgment has grown, with in-
terest, to about $100,000.) Franc-
es told the New York Post in July
that she called Philip several
months earlier to discuss the
amount but that Philip merely
began to cry. Dont let this case
go to trial, she recalled telling
him. (I)f you think Im going to
forget it, Phil, youre stuck on
stupid.
-- Carole Green was fined
$1,000 in July by a court in Leav-
enworth County, Kan., for litter-
ing the property of the same
Bonner Springs resident most
afternoons for the past two
years. Green apologized and said
the charge was a complete sur-
prise. She said when she starts
out in her SUV every day, and
drinks a bottle of tea, it just hap-
pens that she finishes it at about
the same spot on her journey
in front of Gary Bukatys proper-
ty and thats where she tosses
the bottle. She promised to stop.
-- A Southampton (England)
University researcher told an
academic conference in Stock-
holm in July that his work, dem-
onstrating that women who stop
smoking even after becoming
pregnant will have healthier ba-
bies, is important because he
found that pregnant women ratio-
nalize continued smoking, in part
to have smaller babies that will be
less uncomfortable to deliver.
CHUTZPAH!
Even though Michigan school-
teacher Marcie Rousseau was
sentenced in December to at least
four years in prison for having
sex with a high school boy in
Saginaw and Midland counties,
the episode is not over. Now, the
victim has filed a lawsuit
against Rousseau and school
officials for what his lawyer
described as not consensual
sex. The unnamed, then-16-year-
old admitted to at least 100 acts of
sexual intercourse, and 75 other
sex acts, and asks at least $1
million for physical, psycholog-
ical and emotional injury. (To
use the minimum numbers, that
works out to at least $5,700 per
sex act, and since $1 million is
sought on each of the seven feder-
al-law claims and three state-law
claims, the best-case scenario
regards each sex act as a $57,000
burden.)
PLANB
Jonathan Schwartz called 911
in New York City in July to report
that he had stabbed his mother to
death. A few minutes later but
before police arrived, Schwartz
called back 911 to report a correc-
tion: No, she committed sui-
cide. (The mothers body was
found with multiple stab wounds,
and police, notwithstanding
Schwartzs correction, charged
him with murder.)
THE PERVO-AMERICAN
COMMUNITY
Jerry Prieto, 38, pleaded guilty
in July in Benton County, Wash.
(possession of methamphetamine
and malicious mischief with
sexual motivation), and was
sentenced to 45 days in jail. Prie-
to had been arrested with the
drugs in October 2010 in a stall at
a highway rest stop. According to
the prosecutor, Prieto had written
sexual notes on the floor with a
felt-tipped pen and drawn an
arrow pointing directly to his
stall. (As a condition of his sen-
tence, Prieto is allowed in rest-
stop bathrooms only for tradi-
tional purposes.)
DIRTYNAMES

tion (this time, Columbus, Ga.,
April; previously in News of the
Weird, in Tampa, Fla., 2009), Ms.

A WEIRD CLASSIC FROM FEB. 2001
In November (2000), Mr. Auburn Mason, 62, was sentenced to four
years in prison in England for a 1999 British Airways hijacking. He had
grabbed a flight attendant, held scissors to her neck, and threatened to
blow up the plane with the bomb he was holding, screaming Take me
to Gatwick (airport in London)! At that point, the flight was 15 minutes
away from its scheduled destination, which was Gatwick airport. (Min-
utes later, passengers disarmed Mason.)

A whodunit to not fugetabout
Interactive comedy/murder mystery The Altos comes to life at Corner Bistro
By Marie Burrell
Weekender Correspondent
W
e tend to like
a good murder
mystery
piecing together
bits and pieces of clues, sorting
out whats real and what is just
a red herring, trying to nd
out who did it. Never knowing
what secrets lay just around
the corner, wondering who, if
anyone, is next. But we also
like to laugh a nice blend
of comedic relief to lighten the
mood and keep a smile on our
faces.
And thats just what the
Corner Bistro Dinner Theater
in Carbondale is bringing to
audiences as it presents David
Landaus The Altos: Just Like
the Sopranos ... Only Lower
beginning Thursday, Aug. 18
and running until Sunday, Aug.
21.
The Altos director
Rob Misko said it is a great
interactive murder mystery/
comedy that really tries to get
the audience involved, but not in
a way that has them do anything
special or make them feel
uncomfortable.
The author incorporates the
audience, not so much where
they have to do stuff, as many
dont like that, but he has them
as being the children and as
different characters within the
plot, he said. So its neat
because you only have seven
main characters, but he bands
the audience in to really include
them.
Misko said The Altos is
loosely based on the popular
TV show, The Sopranos, and
deals with the death of Tony
Alto, the result of a hit put out
on him by one of his own family
members. The audience, who
has come to pay its respects at
the wake, has to gure out who
ordered the hit on Tony. But
Misko said thats not the only
thing the audience needs to keep
in mind during the performance.
Within the script, theres
a whole list of TV and movie
maa titles in the lines, he said.
So you have to pick them out
and see who gets the most by
the end of the night.
Audience members will be
given a pen and paper to keep
track of any titles they pick up
during the night, and the one
with the most titles, as well as
the one who gures out who
ordered the hit, will win a
ticket to another Corner Bistro
performance during the season.
We realized people
wanted us to stay
W
hile the performance
isnt that large of
a show, held in the
main part of the restaurant
instead of the normal theater
section, Misko said it is a great
way to keep the theater going,
especially with the economy
being as rough as it is.
Weve been trying to do
smaller stuff to kind of build
back to what we were noted for,
which is big musicals, he said.
Having opened toward the
end of 1988, Misko said Corner
Bistro was originally just a
restaurant his family started,
but they began to do dinner
theaters later in 1989. He had
always dreamed of working
with theater, and this was a great
way to do so and still contribute
to his familys business. The
theater now performs an average
of six to seven different shows
each year, and Misko said it is
most known for being the rst
non-professional, non-touring
theater group in the area to
obtain the license to perform
Dan Goggins hit Nunsense.
But Misko said that its been
hard to get productions going,
with very few people interested
in performing and many theaters
closing due to the lack of
interest.
The arts are a dying breed,
he shared. Its important to say
we are still here. Weve been
doing this for around 24 years
thats a long gambit. We did
get to a point where we thought
we were done, but we realized
people wanted us to stay.
Despite moving forward at a
crawl for a year and a half now,
Misko said, the theater is still
working hard to bring quality
entertainment to the community
with its dinner theaters. He said
that people enjoy the interactive
shows more because they feel
like they are part of something,
not just sitting and staring at
characters on stage for a few
hours.
Its fun to be able to drop
that wall, he said. We can
have fun with them, talk back
to them. I think thats what they
like from the time they walk
in the door, they are part of it
all.
Misko hopes that people
continue to come to the shows
and appreciate what community
theater has to offer. He said
that the upcoming production
of The Altos will be a great
night, complete with an Italian-
themed restaurant setting,
homemade Italian food, and of
course, a great show.
We do 150 percent to give
the audience a night of fun and
laughter and a way to forget
about everything in their outside
world, he said. For anybody
who wants to go out and have a
good time at a very economical
price with friends, come out
and see us. Come be part of our
family. W
Its fun to be able
to drop that wall.
We can have fun
with them, talk
back to them. I
think thats what
they like from
the time they walk
in the door, they
are part of it all.

but then again ...
By Jim Rising
I
hate to add to the tsunami
of ink about the Judged
Mark Ciavarella. Other,
better scribes than myself have
done it more justice. But I do
have a few things that I think
need to be underlined. Forgive
me if I seem a little angry here.
I hate to gloat about the
sentence ..., my brother-in-law
said to me the day the sentence
was passed. Its not nice to
gloat.
I dont think that this frothy,
effervescent, delicious feeling
can really be called gloating.
Christian courtesy tells us not to
be happy about anothers mis-
fortune. I guess once and for all
I cannot be called as a Christian
if I am not allowed to feel good
about scooch (rhymes with
pooch) spending whatever por-
tion of his 28-year sentence he
actually serves in discomfort.
The main reason for my hopes
for an unpleasant jail term for
Judged Mark? Other than the
fact that he caused so many
others suffering in order to line
his pockets? His unbelievable
arrogance on the stand in read-
ing the 2,702-word statement
prior to his sentencing Thursday.
I wont dignify the Judgeds
words by reprinting them in any
significant portion here. You
can find the entire nauseating
text easily enough. I do suggest
reading them on an empty stom-
ach, because you will not find
them pleasant. They are like the
squeals of a little boy, caught,
but too childish to own up to his
crimes.
Early on in his repugnant
denial, that he uttered on the
stand in a court of law, the same
type of court he made a mock-
ery of, Judged Mark Ciavarella
said:
Please do not accept what I
am about to say as being igno-
rant, cocky, arrogant, or unreal-
istic.
The quotation The lady doth
protest too much, methinks,
comes from Shakespeares
Hamlet, Act III, scene II. The
phrase has come to mean that
one can insist so passionately
about something not being true
that people suspect the opposite
of what one is saying.
Judged Mark Ciavarella will
have a long time, hopefully, to
think about the true meanings of
the words, ignorant, cocky and
arrogant.
As for unrealistic, I think
there will be quite a lot of real-
ism in the gray-bar hotel that he
will find himself in. I hope so.

A
t 63, shock-rock icon
Alice Cooper has already
lived a thousand lives and
died a thousand deaths.
Actually, a thousand is
probably a gross underestimate.
For decades, Cooper has trau-
matized audiences the world
over with his Grand Guinol-
inspired onstage displays of
dismemberment and decap-
itation. In that time, Cooper
feels hes gained some insight
into the macabre mentality of
his legion of fans. Call it The
Psychology of Shock, if you
like.
We all love thrills, says
Cooper via phone from his
Arizona home. When you get
on a roller coaster, the highest,
fastest, most scare-the-hell-out-
of-you roller coaster in the
world, you go, Oh man, I cant
wait to get on it. And then you
go up that first big hill, getting
higher and higher, and you go,
Oh crap, what did I do?
But, in the back of your
mind, you know its going to
bring you back safely. Its the
same idea. Youre scared be-
cause you want to be scared, but
Alice always brings you back
safely.
Boasting everything from
guillotines and fake blood to an
explosion of brightly colored
confetti, Coopers touring stage
show which will visit the
Scranton Cultural Center Tues-
day, Aug. 23 is more like
some flamboyant traveling
torture chamber than a mere
rock concert.
As visually impressive as all
that may be, though, Cooper
insists its not just over-the-top
theatrics that have kept his ca-
reer going all these years. Its
the musicianship, he says, that
really matters.
The kind of music I play is
eternal, quips Cooper, pointing
to the long-lasting legacies of
similarly styled artists like Iggy
Pop and Lou Reed to back up
his statement. The whole em-
phasis is on how good the song
youre writing is. That will nev-
er go out of style.
With a new album due out
Sept. 13, Cooper is set once
again to prove hes still got the
chops. Titled Welcome 2 My
Nightmare, the record is a
sequel to Coopers landmark
1975 concept album, Welcome
to My Nightmare.
Of the upcoming releases 14
tracks, one especially noteworthy
addition is the song What Baby
Wants, which sees shock-rock
maniac Cooper singing a duet
with pop-music bad-girl, Ke$ha.
Though the pairing may raise
a few eyebrows, Cooper insists
that modern performers like
Ke$ha and Lady Gaga have
more in common with his own
unique brand of theatrical may-
hem than one might think.
Theyve embraced that rock
n roll is show business and
that you cant go up there, just
do your little dance and a song
and walk off, he explains. I
talked to Lady Gaga and I said,
I can see my influence in your
show. You do the same thing I
do. You take your lyrics, and
you bring them to life onstage
with a character. Same thing
with Ke$ha.
Pondering the key to his own
career longevity, Cooper, who
was inducted into the Rock and
Roll Hall of Fame in March,
reveals that hes thankful first
and foremost for the sobriety
hes enjoyed since his highly
publicized struggle with alcohol-
ism in the 70s and 80s.
The fact that I havent grown
up that much helps a lot, too,
he adds. I still really love being
up on stage, with the makeup
on, doing the stage show. Its
hard to give that up. W
The eternal appeal of Alice Cooper

A
couple of kids getting
together and forming a
band may seem like a
cliche thats long since seen its
expiration date, but for Scran-
ton-bred Tigers Jaw, that cliche,
plus a little hard work and a lot
of talent, is exactly what set it
on the path to success.
Guitarist and vocalist Adam
McIlwee, who checked in with
the Weekender from Tampa,
Fla. while on the bands current
tour, is nothing but modest
about Tigers Jaws current status
as a band on the verge, prefer-
ring to attribute its most recent
success to a generous record
company and more exposure in
the form of touring with punk/
hardcore darling Title Fight.
I dont think we have hit it
big, McIlwee said. Were still
doing what we had been doing
years ago.
The aforementioned current
tour will wrap up in Wilkes-
Barre at the Redwood Art
Space on Saturday, Aug. 20; the
bill also includes White Wives,
Kite Party and Three Man Can-
non, a band that calls Tigers
Jaws Pat Brier and Dennis
Mishko full-time members. This
may sound unheard of, but to
hear McIlwee describe it, it
seems to speak more to the
kindred feeling between the two
bands as well as everyone else
on the tour. That, and the fact
that it makes touring easier with
fewer people to worry about.
We always wanted to tour
with Three Man Cannon, McIl-
wee said. We toured with Kite
Party two years ago and
theyre so much fun to hang out
with, and theyre a great band,
so it just kind of made sense to
do this tour. Its the first time
were going south, and (were
doing) it with our friends and
people that we know and trust
and we wont feel like were
stranded with.
McIlwee noted that the band
has toured in the U.K. and as
far south as Georgia, but this
particular tour has taken them
even further down the coast, a
jaunt that has brought with it a
lot of good vibes.
The further south we go, the
more fun the shows are, maybe
because weve never been here
before and more kids are com-
ing to see us for the first time,
he said, after pausing to admire
some salamanders skittering
across a fence.
In addition to an upcoming
split vinyl with O Pioneers!!!
and the potential for a new
album early next year, it seems
Tigers Jaw is focusing a lot on
playing live shows.
Maybe its due to youth or
unbridled musical passion, but
McIlwee doesnt show even the
slightest sign of distaste for
spending time on the road,
instead declaring it the coolest
thing.
Pennsylvania may not have
salamanders (of the wild varie-
ty, at least) and endless sun-
shine, but the appeal of ending
the tour near its home base is a
bit of a comfort for the down-
to-earth McIlwee.
The last day of tour is hor-
rible, because even though
youre just with these people for
three weeks, it just sucks know-
ing that you have to spend time
apart from them, he shared.
So I think having a show at
home ties things together really
well. And it makes going home
after the show feel a lot more
natural and better, making the
best of a bad situation. W

SCRANTON Forget that
his vocals can sometimes re-
semble more croaking than sing-
ing, and take a Bob Dylan show
for what it is: The legend doing
the songs he wants with the ar-
rangements that he wants before
a rapt audience.
Watching Dylans performance
Wednesday, Aug. 10 at Toyota
Pavilion at Montage Mountain
was like watching history unfold
before your eyes. Some of his
most well-known songs were
mixed in with deeper cuts, in-
cluding three in a row from
2001s Love And Theft.
Following a cover-heavy 45-
minute performance by legend-
in-his-own-right Leon Russell,
Dylans set started with the
slightly bluesy Rainy Day Wom-
en #12 & 35, with The Poet
Laureate of Rock n Roll clad
in his trademark western-style
suit and hat behind the key-
boards. It Aint Me, Babe
featured a great lead in and war-
bling organ while Dylan came
out to center stage with his har-
monica for a bluegrass-tinged
rendition of his Oscar-winning
song, Things Have Changed.
Dylan and his harmonica
stayed front and center for Tan-
gled Up In Blue, which preced-
ed Beyond Here Lies Nothin,
for which he strapped on his
guitar. The three Love and
Theft songs followed: The ten-
der Mississippi, High Water
(For Charley Patton) and the
rockabilly-esque Summer
Days, which featured a great
Dylan organ/Charlie Sexton
guitar dance and Tony Garniers
fantastic upright bass.
The nine-minute Desolation
Road, from1965s Highway 61
Revisited, featured a tasty tan-
gent that only added to Dylans
mellow, low-key performance.
That albums title track followed,
and had Sextons guitar and Dy-
lans organ again playing off each
other well, making the song a
standout. Dylan handled a guttur-
al guitar solo on Simple Twist
of Fate, which, these days is a
rare treat, as the musician mostly
spends his time behind the keys
or manning his harmonica. A
peppy version of Thunder On
The Mountain, from 2006s
Modern Times featured Dylan
doing a few equally peppy dance
moves.
An incredible and devilish
Ballad Of A Thin Man,
which featured woeful and sear-
ing Dylan harmonica, closed the
set proper on a magnificent note.
Following the first song of the
encore, an amazing version of
Like A Rolling Stone, Dylan
spoke to the audience for the first
time to say, Thank you very
much, before introducing his
adept band. The shows final
song was the searing All Along
The Watchtower, which was
deep and dark thanks to layers of
guitars, bass and organ melded
together, while Garniers chug-
ging bass offered an ominous
tone.
Bob Dylan is one of rock n
rolls most mysterious entities.
Hes been the voice of social
unrest, he famously jumped from
folk to electric, to Christian
music and back, and has put out
some of his best, most well-
received works in the past dec-
ade. Hes a poet, who sometimes
sounds more like hes reciting
stanzas than singing, a painter
and more than anything, an enig-
ma.
The receptive and sizeable
crowd that stood before Dylan
Wednesday night got it. They got
that his vocals are an acquired
taste, they got that his songs you
hear on the radio probably arent
going to be what you hear or
even recognize in concert and
they got that rare glimpse into the
magic and mystique that is one of
Americas greatest musicians. W

movie review
F
or a supposedly bawdy
comedy, 30 Minutes or
Less is strangely sub-
dued. The laughs come from
small scenes: A hitman winc-
ing as he treats a wound with
rubbing alcohol, a wannabe
tough guy leaving a phone
message for a stripper that is
alternately straightforward and
salacious. A movie like this
requires broad humor or a
barrage of witty, withering
retorts, not a collection of
clever accents.
Especially when the premise
(which mirrors a real-life 2003
case) is this bizarre. Jesse
Eisenberg plays Nick, a twen-
tysomething slacker who hauls
his beat-up Mustang around
Grand Rapids, Mich., deliver-
ing pizzas. Little is going
right. Obviously, the job stinks.
His longtime best friend, Chet
(Aziz Ansari), wants nothing
to do with him. And Chets
attractive twin sister (Dilshad
Vadsaria), the love of Nicks
crappy life, is heading to At-
lanta for her dream job.
In another section of town,
well-funded, badly coiffed
screw-up Dwayne (Danny
McBride) has had it with his
millionaire father (Fred Ward),
a retired military man who is
blowing through his lottery
winnings while retaining maxi-
mum hostility for his son.
Dwayne cant afford to wait
for the inheritance. So, he and
his sycophant, bomb-making
friend, Travis (Nick Swardson),
concoct a plan: Theyll strap
explosives to a poor sap, force
him to rob a bank, and use
the money to fund the murder
of Dwaynes dad.
Nick, unfortunately, is that
poor sap. Dwayne and Travis
give him nine hours to com-
plete the mission. If Nick
decides to deviate from the
plan call the cops, escape,
even fail to get the money
hes dead. Panicking, Nick
visits Chet at his teaching job.
The two quickly make amends
and proceed to put their vast
knowledge of Point Break to
the ultimate test. Alas, Chet
hasnt seen The Hurt Locker,
so he cant defuse the bomb.
Many excellent movies have
employed a bickering duo
forced to get out of a jam or
solve a problem. Off the top
of my head, here are three:
Midnight Run, Lethal Weap-
on and 48 Hours. What
director Ruben Fleischer
(Zombieland) fails to realize
is that those movies succeeded
because the humor came from
the conflict between two very
different personalities. Ansari
and Eisenberg, both nerdy,
nervous and sarcastic, are too
similar. And both lack the big
comedic personality to carry
the movie on their slender
shoulders.
Poor casting and seemingly
random character development
plagues the entire movie. After
nearly a decade of playing
awkward smart guys, culminat-
ing in his bravura performance
as Mark Zuckerberg in last
years The Social Network,
are we supposed to buy Eisen-
berg as a rudderless, beer-
drinking man-child? McBride
is excellent, but his keen dra-
matic instincts feel misplaced,
as does the emerging morality
of Swardsons dopey sidekick.
Maybe these moves are sup-
posed to give an air of hu-
manity to the proceedings
the actual bank robber/pizza
guy, Brian Wells, died but
all they do is stall any come-
dic momentum. 30 Minutes
or Less should be goofy,
stupid fun. Fleischer and his
cohorts, it turns out, are too
smart for their own good.

O
ne Red X will soon
release its first full-
length album, and if
youre a fan of metal with a
modern edge, big hooks, thick
melodies and songs with legit-
imate themes, then this a CD
release party you will not want
to miss.
The band is set to drop
Laughing in the Face of Trag-
edy Saturday, Aug. 20 at the
New Penny Lounge in Scran-
ton, a place that has always
been considered a home to
the group.
Formerly known as Drop the
Lowest when the band first
formed in high school, it hit
the cover scene hard, only
throwing in an original here
and there; but now, after a
break and a name change, the
tables have turned, and One
Red X is more focused than
ever.
We were just friends from
high school when we started
playing covers, singer Jon
Snow said in a recent inter-
view. It just faded and fell
apart. Then about three years
ago, we decided we wanted to
play music together, but take it
more seriously. To take it more
seriously, we focused mainly
on playing our own music
original music.
One Red X Snow, Chris
Lyons and John J-Train
Nicosia on guitar, Nicky
4Strings on bass and Justin
Young on drums could not
be happier with the choice.
When youre doing your
own music its so much bet-
ter, Snow said. No one can
tell you that youre doing your
own song wrong, you can
stand behind it better.
The groups influences vary
for each member, but a few
core bands stuck out to Snow.
Modern-rock and radio-friend-
ly bands like Disturbed and
Creed were on his list, but
also heavier bands like Kill-
switch Engage held a spot as
well.
Recording the new record
was an interesting experience
for One Red X. Only playing
covers the first time around,
no one in the band had ever
recorded in a studio before. So
when it came time to pick a
studio, the members chose not
only a place they were com-
fortable, but a place with great
friends, local rock band Abso-
lution.
Side-B Studios in Dorrance,
owned and operated by Abso-
lution, was where One Red Xs
12-track album was recorded
over a three-year process.
Our producer Tom (Godin)
was amazing to work with,
said Snow. He really helped
us through the entire process
and just made everything very
easy for us. He made us feel
like weve done it before.
Absolution is also on the
bill for Saturdays CD-release
party along with 3 To Breathe.
Snow mentioned that the band
is most comfortable in a live
atmosphere and playing the
show with friends will make
for one of the best times.
We try to be as energetic as
possible, and I think the other
bands do as well, he said.
Thats what makes this show
so great. We want people to
come out because they know
theyll enjoy themselves and
have a great time. Weve al-
ways prided ourselves with our
live performance, and now
with new songs, well be able
to take it to a new level.
For now, the group wants to
establish a solid fan base in
the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre
area, but has hopes for small
regional tours in the near fu-
ture as well. The band has
become addicted to the song-
writing process, as it has al-
ready started pre-production
on the next album.
Were kind of at the end of
our cycle, Snow explained.
Weve been playing the same
songs for the past few years
and now we finally have a new
batch. The last thing we want
to do is fall back into the
same cycle. W

sually here with Music
On The Menu, we pro-
file a local band. Some-
times Ill review a big concert, or
a CD, or Ill write a commentary.
But 90 percent of the time, I
profile bands.
Today, were doing none of
that. Today, were chatting with
one local musician who plays an
instrument that you dont see
very often in the local clubs. Her
name is Christine Attanasio. She
plays the fiddle. And she is cur-
rently working with six different
local projects, including local
country favorites Farmers
Daughter.
Though Attanasio, 26, has
been playing the fiddle for years
and has been involved in several
local groups, it was only about
six months ago that she made her
stage debut with Farmers
Daughter. She says fate may have
had a role.
It was kind of weird how it
happened, says Attanasio. I had
e-mailed them a while ago, be-
cause somebody had told me that
they were looking for a fiddle
player. But at the time, they were
not. In December, I got an e-mail
saying that they were looking for
someone, and they wanted me to
come in and audition.
At the time, I was playing
with a Christmas program, and
one night, randomly, there was a
fill-in bass player. He started
talking to me and said, Were
looking for a fiddle player for my
band. I said, Thats very kind of
you, but Im looking to play with
another group. I then came to
find out he was actually the bass
player for Farmers Daughter. It
worked out in the end, like it was
meant to be.
Now more than six months in,
Attanasio says shes enjoying the
gig.
I love it, she says. Its so
much fun. The people that come
to see us are great. They just
have a ball, no matter where
were playing. And the music is
so much fun to play. It always
gets everyone dancing. Thats my
favorite part.
Attanasio, a former member of
Barefoot and Rippletree Effect,
still works with former band-
mates Tony Halchak and Aman-
da Hoffman and has recorded
with Scrantons Jung Bergo and
Gypsum Choi. She says playing
the fiddle has opened many
doors.
I would not have met any of
these people or have these people
in my life if it wasnt for such a
universal instrument, she says,
adding that the film Mr. Hol-
lands Opus was what first drew
her to it. I saw that movie, and
for some reason, and I dont
know what it was, I just became
really interested in playing the
violin. I was kind of shy when I
was in middle school and high
school, and my mom said she
could tell that I really wanted to
play because I walked right up to
the orchestra director. I had never
met him. Never knew him. And I
walked right up him and said, I
want to play the violin.
Attanasio says there is no
distinction between the fiddle
and the violin and that the only
differentiation is determined by
the genre of music. Country
music has fiddles. Classical
music has violins. Its the same
instrument, she says. You cant
go into a music store and say, I
want to buy a violin or I want
to buy a fiddle. Theyre going to
hand you the same thing.
Attanasio also offers fiddle/
violin lessons at Robert M. Sides
Family Music Center in Wilkes-
Barre. On Sept. 2 from 4-9 p.m.,
shell perform at the River Com-
mon in Wilkes-Barre during the
Wendys Wonderful Kids Half
Marathon and 10K Run.
Ive always loved the fiddle,
she says. It adds depth to a lot
of songs and more texture. And
not only that, but they say its the
closest instrument to the human
voice, so without adding another
vocal line, it can add its own
voice to a song. W
Christine Attanasio recently made her stage debut as
part of Farmers Daughter.
She ain't just
fiddlin' around

ralphie report
the
By Ralphie Aversa
Special to the Weekender
S
haggy is 11 years and
five albums separated
from one of his biggest
hits to date (It Wasnt Me),
but his story hasnt changed.
Sugar is made from it!
Rum is made from it! What
are you talking about? the
singer, born Orville Burrell,
jokingly responded after I
asked him about the sexual
innuendo in his latest song,
Sugarcane. It wasnt me,
man, thats my story, and Im
sticking to it!
The dancehall artists music
and outlook have stayed rela-
tively consistent over his ca-
reer, even with his latest LP,
Summer in Kingston.
When you put a new shirt
on that you just bought, you
have a different feeling than
when you put on the shirt
youve been wearing for a
while, he explained. Its a
mood adjuster. The music
must do the same thing to
you.
It was that mentality that led
Shaggy, along with fellow
dancehall sensation Sean Paul
and hip-hop artist Busta
Rhymes, to London earlier
this month. The artists per-
formed a concert for the youth
in the U.K., with hopes it
would quell the foreseeable
violence.
We had to go in there, as
strong figures of the dancehall
and reggae community, and
just tell the kids to live anoth-
er way, Shaggy said. I guess
after we left it kind of just
erupted.
But the singers attitude
doesnt waver when it comes
to the effect his music can
have on a population good or
bad. He laughed at a recent
segment on cable news about
his No. 1 from 2000.
There was something on
CNN called, The Shaggy
Effect I think it was, when
the oil spill happened, he
recalled. These big oil com-
panies are pointing fingers
like, It wasnt me, it was
them.
SIMPLE PLANS TRIALS
& TRIBULATIONS
Simple Plan has been
around the block a couple
times, but even drummer
Chuck Comeau was a little
overwhelmed when the band
attempted to film its latest
music video in an airport.
The whole video almost
collapsed the night before, he
revealed to The Ralphie
Radio Show. It was crazy
stressful but in the end we got
something really great and the
funny thing is, we couldnt
play really loud.
When almost any music
video is filmed, the song is
played on set in the back-
ground so that the artists can
sing and play along to it, as if
theyre actually playing the
track. If youve never been on
a music video set before, lead
singer Pierre Bouvier ex-
plained why the low volume
mandate proved tricky during
the shoot.
The point is to get (the
music) as loud as possible, so
you feel like youre actually
playing it, said the frontman.
So you can feel the energy,
and you dont feel all ridicu-
lous moving around like
youre rocking out to a little
boom box thats about level
two volume.
Despite the music, the guys
are happy with the final prod-
uct. Simple Plan decided to
film the piece for Jet Lag, a
track from Get Your Heart
On! in Toronto Pearson
International Airport.
Thankfully for the pop rock-
ers, they were able to use a
terminal closed to the public
and under construction. Still,
the band was subject to airport
security, getting frisked
anytime they entered or exited
the terminal. W
Listen to The Ralphie
Radio Show weeknights from
7 p.m.-midnight on 97 BHT.
Shaggy will forever be
known for this song.

2120 South Michigan Ave-
nue, George Thorogoods lat-
est, is a tribute album and
history lesson rolled into a
neat 13-track package. Taking
its name from the address of
legendary blues label Chess
Records, the album consists of
10 covers of Chess artists (in-
cluding Chuck Berry, Willie
Dixon, and Muddy Waters),
two originals and concludes
with a cover of The Rolling
Stones 2120 South Michigan
Avenue, an earlier tribute to
Chess Records and to the
blues influence on rock n
roll.
The album opens with Go-
ing Back, one of the two
original tracks, and it sets the
mood for whats to follow.
From there, Thorogood begins
a run of nine covers, perform-
ed in his typical barreling-
freight-train style. Following is
another original, Willie Dix-
ons Gone, during which Tho-
rogood pays tribute to who
may be his favorite artist of
the genre (four songs covered
here were penned by Dixon).
From there, the album con-
cludes with Chicago Bound
and the Stones track before
fading off into the night.
George Thorogoods music
has always sounded as though
it was born from a smoke-
filled room on Chicagos South
Side in the early 1950s as
opposed to Delaware in the
late 1970s; 2120 South Michi-
gan Avenue serves to further
that claim. With this album,
Thorogood not only breathes
some new life into the blues,
but into his career as well.
Fans of the blues will enjoy
his take on some classics; fans
of raw, ballsy rock n roll
will enjoy hearing Thorogood
pay tribute to his roots. From
the packaging to the content,
there could not be a more
fitting tribute to Chess Re-
cords, and Thorogood was
definitely the right man for the
job.
-- Michael Irwin

Billboard Top 5 U.K. Songs
Simple Plan recently released its fourth
studio album, Get Your Heart On! As
expected, the band doesnt stray far from
the platformthat made it successful: Cre-
ating catchy songs that can be found on
Nickelodeon; however, those catchy tunes
arent half bad.
Heart On shows a lot of promise with
You Suck At Love, establishing the fact
that SPisnt trying to break the mold with
the record, which isnt such a bad thing.
The song is a smooth, well-balanced open-
er with a lively chorus.
Cant Keep My Hands Off You, a track
that features Weezers Rivers Cuomo,
keeps the pace. Cuomos presence isnt
only fitting, but enjoyable on this quick and
old-fashioned punk song.
The rest of the albumis somewhat of a
tossup. Jet Lag, Loser Of The Year and
Freaking Me Out keep the energy, while
Astronaut, Gone Too Soon and Any-
where Else But Here are on the downside.
The latter have the potential to be blasting
rock anthems, but instead fizzle out and
feel like a long car ride you just want to be
over.
Simple Plan expanded a tiny bit with
Summer Paradise and This Song Saved
My Life. The former is a great vacation
song and makes you wish you were at the
beach; its a Jack Johnson-type tune SPhas
never offered before. This Song Saved
My Life was written by fans, with lyrics
submitted through Twitter. You can defi-
nitely pick up on the oddity when listening.
Knowing the band completed more than
70 songs before narrowing it down to11
makes it a tad upsetting that the record isnt
picture perfect. But putting the fewfaults
aside, there is enough classic SPto make
Get Your Heart On! a worthwhile album.

Simple Plan
Get Your Heart On!
Rating: W W W1/2
Sticking to
its ` Plan'
There are many things that come to
mind when Falling In Reverse front-
man Ronnie Radke is involved. A
former member of Escape the Fate,
Radke is talented, iconic, wild and
notorious for creating colorful and
unique tracks.
Falling in Reverse released its debut
The Drug In Me Is You in July, and
to say the outing is just a hard-rock
album would be a gross understate-
ment.
In addition to aggressive rock,
Radke incorporates metal and electron-
ica into this collective mix of mayhem
and definitely keeps listeners wonder-
ing what will come next. Opening
track Raised By Wolves is an insane
marriage of electronica, hard rock and
Radkes guttural death-metal-esque
growls. He then immediately switches
it up and launches right into the up-
beat anthem, Tragic Magic, which
has an infectious chorus before
Radkes vocals take a metal turn.
The title track is a guitar-driven
anthem, complete with immense hooks
and catchy choruses. The band demon-
strates that it could be a strictly metal
band if they ever felt like a switch up
on Goodbye Graceful. Radke sounds
like a different person on this track
compared to other songs. Its packed
with vicious breakdowns, making it
possibly the albums heaviest. Radkes
vocals are witty and poetic, leaving
little room for interpretation as to what
he is feeling.
Overall, Radke has managed to im-
print his dramatic personality into ev-
ery aspect of The Drug In Me Is
You.

e live in a techno-
logical era where
celebrity image and
status is regularly plastered
in front of us. With televi-
sions and magazines con-
stantly displaying the images
of celebrities, it is hard to
avoid the petty news and
gossip. But there are a few
celebrities out there that
really do care, and this year,
the International Green
Awards introduced the Best
Green International Celebrity
Award to identify who has
used their media spotlight to
promote a positive envi-
ronmental way of life.
Celebrities are capable of
grabbing an audiences atten-
tion with just about anything
they do. So when Leonardo
DiCaprio drove to the Os-
cars in a Prius one year,
living a greener lifestyle
became more appealing. The
International Green Awards
is showcasing a variety of
environmentalists and wants
the Best Green Celebrity to
be someone who inspires
individuals by example. The
Awards created a list of 15
celebrities from around the
world and wants everyone to
vote.
The list includes actors,
models, photographers and
musicians such as DiCaprio,
Sir Paul McCartney, Cam-
eron Diaz, Helena Christen-
sen, Sting, Gael Garcia Ber-
nal, Don Cheadle and Brazi-
lian supermodel Gisele
Bundchen, just to name a
few. These individuals are
eager to steer the power of
the media on important mat-
ters.
DiCaprio has his own
foundation, The Leonardo
DiCaprio Foundation, which
supports efforts towards sus-
tainability. He is also an
ambassador associated with
Green Cross International
and even lives in a solar
panel-covered home.
McCartney has been an
environmental advocate for
years, who promotes animal
rights, is an ambassador of
PETA and is also involved
in a campaign to end animal
testing for cosmetic products
sold in Europe.
In 1989, Sting and his
wife, Trudie Styler, set up
the Rainforest Foundation
International after witnessing
first hand the destruction of
the Amazon rainforests. With
his foundation, Sting has
helped protect more than
100,000 square kilometers of
rainforest.
The International Green
Awards wants to applaud the
celebrity who has used the
limelight for positive change
and gives the audience a
chance to decide how these
popular figures really do
influence us. Its important
to recognize celebrities for
the good they do rather than
recognize them for stupidity.
To check out the entire
list of nominees and cast
your vote, visit greenaward-
s.com.
Some celebs go
for the green
Sir Paul McCartney is one
of the many celebrities
embracing the green
movement.

tech talk
By Nick Delorenzo
F
or fans of the Star Trek
series, the last few years
have been a trekstrava-
ganza, with a blockbuster reboot
of the series, several video games
and more pop-culture interest
than the franchise has enjoyed
since the 1990s. Its a good time
to be a Trekkie.
Now, theres a Star Trek
theme park in the works. Its a
$1.5 billion enterprise, which will
include four hotels and 17 enter-
tainment developments, along
with restaurants, theaters and
shopping.
The park is being developed in
concert with Paramount Recre-
ation and CBS Consumer Prod-
ucts.
Dont get your phasers in a
fricassee just yet, Trek fans,
theres one little bump in the
road. The new theme park is a
little off the beaten path. By that,
I mean to say its in another
country, namely, Jordan.
You may ask yourself, Why
Jordan? It seems that His Maj-
esty King Abdullah II is quite the
Star Trek fan. He even had a
cameo on Star Trek Voyager, in
the episode Investigations. And
like most kings worth their salt,
hes fantastically wealthy, and
more to the point, if he wants to
spend the money on a Star
Trek theme park, he can.
Given the rabid nature of Star
Trek fans (to illustrate the point,
Klingon, a language that was
developed for the series, is more
widely spoken than several real
languages), and since a relatively
modest 500,000 visitors a year
are required for the property to
be profitable, it seems like a
fairly sound investment on the
kings part.
The entire project, taken to-
gether, is called the Red Sea
Astrarium, and construction is
set to start in the city of Aqaba
sometime next year.
With the loss of the Star Trek:
Experience, a Star Trek-
themed exhibit originally located
in Las Vegas, a pilgrimage to
Aqaba could be a journey of
some significance to Star Trek
fans the world over.
If you have the means to un-
dertake a trek to Jordan, despite
the political instability in the
region, its not a bad place to
visit. Jordan has enjoyed excel-
lent relations with the United
States and other western nations
for decades, has one of the high-
est standards of living in the
Arab world and has extremely
progressive social policies. I
should note that the Star Trek
theme is only a small portion of
the attraction. According to Ha-
nin Fakhriddin of Rubicon Hold-
ing, the park will also revolve
around the history and culture of
the Red Sea region, including
British, Roman and Babylonian
influences. The Star Trek attrac-
tion will be in a section of the
park dedicated to the future. The
park should open sometime in
2014. W
Nick DeLorenzo is director of
interactive and new media for
The Times Leader.

KILDARES GETS
A MENU MAKEOVER
Kildares Authentic Irish
Pub (110 Jefferson Ave., Scran-
ton) recently launched a new
menu, adding 22 new items.
The menu features favorites
including Irish Craic nachos,
baked five-onion soup,
the Dubliner burger,
crab cake pubwich,
turkey Swiss pub-
wich, Guinness
stew, shepherds
pie, bangers and
mash, fish and
chips and the Philly
cheesesteak boxty.
New additions include
crab and cheese dip (served in a
pretzel roll now instead of a
bread bowl), fried bangin mac
and cheese, spice-rubbed shrimp,
Reuben spring roll, beer mussels,
hummus, beer bratwurst, veggie
cheesesteak, corned beef and
cabbage and Guinness-poached
salmon.
We have always served in-
credible Irish food, stated Exec-
utive Chef Steve Calise. How-
ever, we thought it was time to
update our menu by adding some
new healthy items, keeping some
of the popular items and updating
dishes by adding a twist.
All Kildares locations are
assembled in Ireland and shipped
to the U.S. Hundreds of contain-
ers of Irish artifacts are shipped
in to use throughout the build-
ings and staff members are
trained in traditional Irish hospi-
tality and service.
Kildares was
founded by Dave Magrogan in
2003. Lunch and dinner are
served daily at the Scranton
location, along with Sunday
brunch and daily food and drink
specials. For more info, visit
kildaresirishpub.com or call
570.344.4030. Magrogan also
owns Doc Magrogans Oyster
House at The Shoppes at Mon-
tage (7011 Shoppes Blvd., Moos-
ic).
GO POUND SAND
Damentis Restaurant (870
N. Hunter Highway, Mountain
Top), has opened The Roman
Holiday Sand Bar, featuring
the work of the ice sculptors,
local artists and more, who will

sand, snow, ice and more. The
sculptures will remain in Da-
mentis new sculpture garden.
The sand bar will remain open
throughout the year, featuring
different types of performance
artwork every Sunday at 5:30
p.m. Each Sunday will also fea-
ture 15 percent of sales bene-
fiting a chosen charity.

is open during normal business
hours Tuesday-Sunday starting at
5 p.m. The restaurant is closed
Mondays. For more info, e-mail

An American Landscape: The 150th
Anniversary of the Civil War: through
Sept. 5, Gallery 13. During regular
novel approach
A
good Scotch, the warm,
acrid scent of cigarette
smoke and the sound of
swing music in the heart of nos-
talgic 1930s New York City.
Thats the scene that envelopes,
embraces and enchants the reader
from the first chapter of Amor
Towles debut novel, Rules of
Civility.
Opening on New Years Eve
1937, the novel tells the story of a
chance meeting between the
ironically named Katey Kontent,
her friend Eve Ross and the
handsome, wealthy Tinker Grey.
The characters unfold and reveal
themselves slowly, just how one
would imagine the vodka at
Chernoffs (the Russian im-
migrant hideaway at which the
trio finds itself at one point)
slowly distills in the proprietors
bathtub/makeshift still.
Their chance meeting leads to
a whirlwind of events that cata-
pult Katey into an enviable posi-
tion as part of the startup of
Gotham magazine and into the
upper echelon of New York City
high society. Towles writing is
reflective, but not so much that
hes asking the reader to follow
him into the depths of the un-
known. Rather, one feels kinship
and, at times, pity for Katey and
her quiet longing, her hidden
wishes, her unvoiced desires.
But her wry sense of humor
and quick wit, especially when
shes bitter about something,
makes it clear shes not some
one-dimensional character de-
void of poise or self-assurance.
In Katey, Towles has fluidly built
a feminine, headstrong individu-
al, and his portrayal of her is
impressive. Though the other
characters have their charm and
solid personalities, Katey is the
bookish heroine of Rules of
Civility.
While there are many un-
expected twists and turns, Towles
unfolds the story quietly, without
much pomp and flair, which
makes it that much more of a
page-turner. As much as his
descriptive language so easily
paints the setting of the novel, so,
too, does his dialogue and tone.
Everything about Rules of
Civility makes it a heady tribute
to a city like no other during an
era like no other. The lingo, the
vivid descriptions and the scen-
ery all call the reader back to a
time when it was a nickel for a
gin and tonic and the only thing
you could do with a phone was
talk into it.
One of the most stirring lines
of Towles fluttery prose sums up
his utterly fantastic debut with
elegant accuracy: Thats the
problem with being born in New
York, the old newsman observed
a little sadly. Youve got no New
York to run away to.

Roy and Louise Montalvan have been in
the bagel business for over 15 years and
are truly experts in crafting the NewYork
bagel. It all started over 100 years ago
when Roys great-grandfather came over
from Russia to become a bagel man in
NYC. His father had owned a bagel bakery
in Russia and he wanted to bring the recipe
to NewYork City.
As natives of NewYork, Roy and Louise
settled in the North Pocono area opening
Bagel Meister in Scrantons Southside
Shopping Center, May 27th 2011. They
specialize in the NY water bagel and
homemade specialty cream cheese. With

By Rachel A. Pugh
Weekender General Manager
T
he newly opened Bs
Boutique in Scranton
offers new and used
clothing and a wide
variety of fresh styles at very
low prices. Owned and operated
by Bernice Long, Bs carries
everything from footwear and
accessories to dresses. The
boutique can help you create an
entire outt as well as expand
your wardrobe.
Welcome Bs Boutique to
the neighborhood and learn a
little more about this great new
addition to NEPA.
WEEKENDER: How
would you describe your
store?
LONG: I would describe my
store as having unique styles,
different from your average
stores in Scranton. I try to bring
high styles at affordable prices.
WEEKENDER: What
are some of the lines you
High style at low prices
carry?
LONG: I carry 7 For All
Mankind, Calvin Klein, Levis,
Married to the Mob, Juicy,
Coach, WeSC, LAIdol and
much more.
WEEKENDER: Who is
your target audience?
LONG: This is a boutique for
anyone who loves fashion and
wants to be dressed differently
from the rest. If you love high
fashion at low prices, then you
are my target audience.
WEEKENDER: What
made you want to open
your own boutique?
LONG: I wanted to open my
boutique because of my own
love of fashion, being tired of
shopping online and paying
overpriced retail. Plus, if it
doesnt t or the wrong things
are sent, then its a hassle to
return it. I was tired of having
to shop out of town for styles
I loved, so I decided to bring
it here. With a lot of research
and traveling, I believe Ill
have something for everyones
fashion needs.
WEEKENDER: You have
used and new clothing.
How do you receive the
used clothing?
LONG: I do carry barely
used fashions, too, but some of
it I buy. Alot of it is from my
friends and family who have
offered me a lot of their support.
In the future, Im sure I will
be able to buy more from the
public.
WEEKENDER: Are
you involved in any local
fashion shows or events?
LONG: I personally have
hosted a great fashion show
right here at the boutique, which
could be viewed on Facebook.
I have also done some charity
events and benets. I have
donated a lot of gift cards,
baskets, etc. for benets to
help pay medical expenses for
people. I also participated in the
Unity Fest in Scranton. I would
be interested in any other events
or cross networking.
WEEKENDER: Whats
your hottest seller?
LONG: One of the hottest
sellers are Coach bags, because
theyre cheaper than outlet
prices, costume jewelry and
dresses.
WEEKENDER: What
brands can we expect to
see in the fall?
LONG: This fall, I want to
have a lot of variety such as
Grace in La, 80%20, some of
the hottest footwear, DKNY,
MMTM, Rock & Republic,
Ralph Lauren, WeSC and so
much more.
WEEKENDER: What
future plans do you have
for your boutique?
LONG: Im hoping to have a
bright future here and continue
to bring everyone the greatest,
hottest fashion. Because I am
a recent graduate of Empire
Beauty School, I would like to
combine it with a full-service
salon and allow females to
get away, pamper themselves
and do some shopping. Thats
something every woman
needs a day of shopping and
relaxing. W
A variety of trendy fashions to ft everyones needs.

LEO(JULY23-AUG. 22)
Denying a cheering audience an encore
is pretty cold. However, exhausting them
by delivering three, four or more bonus
performances would be a terrible idea, too.
Havent you ever heard of the concept
leave themwanting more? Make that
your strategy this week, even though that
will likely leave you wanting more, too
maybe even more than they do. Suck it up,
Leo. Playing a little hard to get is whats
best for your long-termwell-being. Dont
be cold and aloof. Staying cool (and slight-
ly unattainable), though, will have them
eating out of your hand.
VIRGO(AUG. 23-SEPT. 22)
As you knowall too well, theres such a
thing as too much of a good thing. What
was fantastic and healthy when abundant
becomes an overwhelming source of mi-
sery once it has the chance to proliferate
endlessly. You may need to firmly end the
cycle this week. I understand your reluc-
tance. Sometimes that means being harsh.
Also, what if your efforts transformfeast
into famine? Unfortunately, thats a risk
youll have to take. Half-measures wont
work here. If a plant is taking over your
garden, you deprive it of the water and
sunlight it needs to thrive, at the very least.
However, if you really want to get the job
done, you rip it out by the roots.
LIBRA(SEPT. 23-OCT. 22)
This is a good week for fixing broken
relationships particularly ones you
broke. It wont be easy, though. Youll have
to be humble, and admit to (and apologize
for) all the mistakes you made. Youll also
have to be truly sincere in your desire to
make a newconnection, one with totally
original parameters. Youll never again
have what you had, so fixating on that is a
pointless waste of time. Instead, you need
to become inspired about what can be,
instead of what was and the realistic
hope that, at least in some ways, it might be
better.
SCORPIO(OCT. 23-NOV. 21)
Scorpios will climb way out on a limb
for someone they love. This, naturally, has
regularly gotten you into trouble through-
out your life. I hope that your willingness
to go through hell to help those dear to you
never fades; however, you might start being
more selective about just howfar youre
willing to stick your neck out, and for
whom. You should still be willing to go to
extremes thats part of what makes you
special. But taking themdown a notch, or
exercising a little more caution well,
those would be signs that you havent for-
gotten howto be a good friend youve
just learned to practice wisdom, too.
SAGITTARIUS(NOV. 22-DEC. 21)
You and I are both big fans of the truth.
However, truth in all things at all times is a
recipe for unhappiness, misery and strife.
Imnot advocating that you lie; however,
smart decisions about what to reveal, and
when, can go a long way toward increasing
your serenity and making the people
around you generally happier, too. There
are times when failure to disclose some-
thing is just as bad as a big, fat, black-
hearted lie. This isnt one of them. In this
case, keeping your mouth shut is probably
the kindest, smartest thing you can do.
CAPRICORN(DEC. 22-JAN. 19)
Many pet owners suck, because they
didnt realize what they were really signing
on for when they got their newcompanion.
You too, may be feeling disillusioned about
the commitment you made, nowthat youre
living it, and its not what youd imagined.
Tough shit. You have two choices here. The
first is: suck it up and truly live up to your
end of the bargain, because doing what you
consider the bare minimumis lame, cruel
and unfair. The other option, of course, is to
back out before you make everyone in-
volved miserable. However, you have an
obligation here, too: Just like that regretful
dog owner, who must find her pooch a
wonderful newhome, its your job to at
least try to leave those you inadvertently
led on better off than when you found them.
AQUARIUS(JAN. 20-FEB. 18)
Before you go over someones head
even if youre pretty sure youre going to
have to, anyway approach themdirectly.
Tattling would leave themfeeling paranoid
and picked on, which wont help matters
one bit. Treat this person like a reasonable
human being (even if they dont often act
like one) wholl hear your request or crit-
icismwith at least a modicumof politesse
and an open mind. You may be pleasantly
surprised by the end result, even if the
encounter itself proves difficult. The direct
approach is harder, sure, but itll also feel
better, and, more importantly, work better.
PISCES(FEB. 19-MARCH20)
Fix the problemonly you seemto see. It
may not be your business, but there may
also be no one else. Dont imagine some
knight in shining armor will ride up and
take care of this. You dont need to be a
hero. Just step up and do your best, before
the situation worsens. You might be in-
viting trouble, conflict and drama into your
life by getting involved here, but thats
irrelevant; its still the right thing to do.
Luckily, along with all that crap, some
good stuff may come too, stuff like: Oppor-
tunity, profit, love, recognition, serenity
and satisfaction.
ARIES(MARCH21-APRIL19)
Being anything Aries, bisexual, Re-
publican, actor or any of a million other
labels comes with its own set of bag-
gage. People make assumptions. Oh,
youre one of those! Of course, only ter-
ribly boring people fit cleanly into any
category, and youre not one of those.
Therefore, resist using such labels to de-
scribe yourself, no matter howmuch peo-
ple insist. You are you, and none of those
things comes close to conveying exactly
who that is. If someone really cant be
bothered to figure you out on their own,
and insists on some kind of category for
you, tell them, Imone of those People
You Dont Know.
TAURUS(APRIL 20-MAY20)
Getting a yes every time you asked for
anything would make all that approval kind
of meaningless, wouldnt it? Its the chal-
lenge of surmounting a whole mountain of
rejection that makes whatever you get in
the end job, romance, sex that much
better and more satisfying. Rejection is a
hugely necessary part of the big picture, so
censoring or second-guessing yourself out
of fear of it is really, really dumb. (Under-
standable, but dumb.) This week is a good
one to pile on the rejections thatll make
your ultimate success that much sweeter.
Get out there and start racking themup.
GEMINI (MAY21-JUNE20)
Do you really want what you think you
want? Or is it only desirable because youre
pretty sure you cant have it? Howmuch of
your fantasy life is about the titillating thrill
of the unattainable, and howmuch is devot-
ed to desires that might actually be ful-
filled, if you play your cards right? Its fun
and totally OKto have dreams that you
know(whether you admit it or not) will
never come to fruition. However, you also
need some preferably most that are
actually possible. This week, make sure
that at least half the time you spend making
wishes in your head is used on wishes that
can come true.
CANCER(JUNE21-JULY22)
Imagine a world where marriages we-
rent til death do us part, but rather, say,
for the next seven years. Even though this
model is arguably less romantic, Id bet a
much higher percentage of these marriages
would succeed. Heres the problemwith
stuff like lifelong commitment: People
change. Adecade fromnowyoull be quite
a different person, with newdesires and
goals and so will whoever youre with.
Even if youre perfect together now, your
aims may be completely incompatible in10
years. Dont fool yourself. Accepting
and planning around that truth is a big
part of making decisions thatll ultimately
lead to more happiness than disappoint-
ment. W

scooter girl
By Jayne Moore
S
ome people leave this life
way too early. They are
not easily forgotten. Erica
McGuire is one of those peo-
ple. Yesterday marked the sec-
ond anniversary of her death,
and Sunday, Aug. 21 will mark
the second year people will be
coming together to ride their
motorcycles in her memory
and making a difference.
I sat with Ericas father, Paul
Mugsy McGuire recently to
chat about the upcoming ride.
This was not the first time Ive
done that. Last year we talked
about Erica, her life and death.
This year we talked about the
future. Time does not always
heal all wounds. When you
lose a child, you lose most, if
not all, of your heart.
The most important thing
about Erica was that on the
balloon release on her birthday,
I realized just how many peo-
ples lives she touched and how
many people still think of her
and remember her, Mugsy
said.
Its often that way with shin-
ing stars.
Erica was killed in a motor-
cycle accident on Aug. 16,
2009. She left behind a griev-
ing father and two young sons,
Jared, who is now seven, and
Jimmy, four. Last years ride
went to help fund their educa-
tions and basic needs. This
year, the proceeds from the run
will benefit Marleys Mission.
This year we are not only
working to keep her memory
alive, but to donate money to
Marleys Mission, Mugsy said.
Erica would like that her
memory will help kids.
Marleys Mission uses horses
as therapy animals for trauma-
tized kids. You can find out
more about Marleys Mission at
www.marleysmission.com.
In his very humble way,
Mugsy explained that he didnt
want people to focus on Erica
and the money going to her
sons.
Instead of giving it to the
boys, were donating it to a
charity, the boys are doing
fine, their grandfather said.
Mugsy took them up to Mar-
leys Mission to see where the
money was going, and the boys
actually got to ride the horses
and see firsthand where the
proceeds will be going. Im not
sure they understand all of
whats happening, but this is
such a great lesson of giving in
action. Im sure they will grow
up valuing the work being done
this weekend. They will defi-
nitely be at the ride/picnic.
Sundays ride starts at the
Parker House (12 E. Parker St.,
Scranton). It is a poker-run
event, and registration is from
10 a.m.-noon; the last bike
needs to be in by 5 p.m. The
cost is $10 per rider and $10
per passenger. There will be
music, games and a picnic,
which starts at 2 p.m.; walk-ins
for the picnic are welcome for
a $10 admission. For more
information, call Sharon at
570.840.6707 or Mugsy at
386.214.7955.
Last year, Mugsy was fea-
tured in the PennDOT video
for the Live Free Ride Alive
video and website that pro-
motes motorcycle safety by
having families and survivors
retell stories. Mugsys very
poignant story relates the tale
of Ericas accident. Its a must
see. You can find it at www.li-
vefreeridealive.com.
Mugsys last comment to me
was a heart breaker:
Every night as I go to bed,
there is a picture of her on my
nightstand. I kiss it goodnight
and tell her I love her.
Erica lives on in the lives of
her father, her sons and the
people that all come to help
raise money for this very wor-
thy charity. A fitting tribute to
a life cut short.
Motorcycles are everywhere,
look twice and save a life. W
A fitting tribute to a life
cut short

Erica, who passed away in 2009.
This year we are not only working to
keep her memory alive, but to donate
money to Marleys Mission. Erica would
like that her memory will help kids.

sorry mom&dad
By Justin Brown
S
orry, Mom and Dad I
know Im supposed to be
focusing on getting my shit
together so I can finally move out
of your house, but I recently
decided to concentrate on brand-
ing myself by recording a dance
single in a ministers basement.
As the championship round of
Dancing with the NEPA Stars
is approaching, I realize that I
need to strike while the iron is hot
and find a new project that can
take my burgeoning local celebri-
ty status to a whole new level
when all this dancing malarkey is
over. After grasping that creating
my own brand of cheap vodka to
sell at indoor flea markets in-
volved more of a personal burden
than I was willing to commit to, I
decided I would do something
even more epic: Attach my name
to a dance single. Eat your heart
out, Rebecca Black, because
youre goin down thanks to
Justin Brown.
To make certain this game plan
of recording my debut dance
single would be a success, I en-
listed the help of Mr. Philip Man-
cini, proud husband, devoted
father, minister and owner of
Love The Arts! Inc., which has a
long history of bringing music to
NEPA. Kind enough to set aside
time from his busy schedule of
running two locations of his
music business, as well as his
own fly and tackle shop called
Fishin Musician Fly & Tackle,
Mancini aided my metamorpho-
sis into future pop stardom.
What kind of song would you
like to record? I was asked.
Something fun that girls can
dance on top of a bar to, I an-
swered. Something Auto-Tuned
like crazy that could give Rebec-
ca Black of YouTube shame a run
for her money!
Thats when the idea hit me
like a foul ball at a little league
game! If I wanted to give Rebec-
ca Black a run for her money, I
would have to show her how its
really done and what better
way to do that than by recording a
cover of her song, Friday?
Since Mancini and I had such a
blast recording that song, we
decided to record another song
called Local Celebrity, as well.
For everybody who wants to
dance like a local celebrity, and
get #STUPiDFACEDD, come out
and listen to the debut of my two
new dance singles. Local Celeb-
rity will be debut at the cham-
pionship round of Dancing with
the NEPA Stars this Friday, Aug.
19. That same night, my cover of
Friday will debut at Club Evo-
lution inside The Woodlands in
Plains Twp. 11 p.m. sharp! Boom-
shakka-lakka-boom! W
F--k keeping up with the
Kardashians! Keep up with
Justin on Facebook.com/

@sorrymomanddad.
Eat your heart
out, Rebecca
