Letter from the editor
Wednesday, Oct. 5 marks the
second installment of the Week-
ender/98.5 KRZ Flood Victims
Benefit Concerts Series. The
series kicked off last week at
Brews Brothers West in Luzerne
and will be held this week at Bar
Louie inside Mohegan Sun at
Pocono Downs (1280 Route 315,
Plains Twp.) On the bill for the
show, which starts at 8 p.m., is
Hostile Authority, Destination
West, Pop Rox and Graces Down-
fall.
There is a $10 donation and all
proceeds benefit the Wyoming
Valley Chapter of the American
Red Cross to help people who
have been affected by Septem-
bers devastating flood. As Amy
George, the chapters develop-
ment coordinator of annual and
planned giving, told me last
week, monetary donations are
best because thatll allow us to
buy items in bulk. But you can
still donate cleaning supplies or
the much-needed personal hy-
giene products.
Next weeks benefit will be at
The Woodlands (1073 Route 315,
Plains Twp.) with M80, Stealing
Neil, Lemongelli and Tommy
Guns Band.
As for this weeks issue, youll
find some pages full of our past
Models and Men of the Week
(starting on p. 44), as part of our
annual Model of the Year issue.
You can vote online for your
favorites now at theweekender-
.com or come to the Woodlands
Friday, Oct. 7 from10-11 p.m. to
cast your vote in person at the
party. Ralphie Aversa, of 97 BHT
(and The Ralphie Report,
which you can find on p. 33) will
announce the winners at mid-
night.
In Music on the Menu, (p.
34), Alan K. Stout writes about
Rock Against Diabetes, which
will be held Monday, Oct. 9 at
Kildares (119 Jefferson Ave.,
Scranton). Not only will the event
feature six local bands, but it
hopes to raise money and aware-
ness for the Juvenile Diabetes
Research Foundation and help
fund the development of a local
social network for children with
diabetes, something youll realize
is needed after you read this story.
Thats just a sampling of what
you can find in this first issue of
October. Thanks for reading
and hope to see you out this
week!

Any movie with Cameron Diaz
in it and Nosferatu.
The Shining. Im not sure I have a favorite. The
Paranormal Activity movies do freak
me out a little bit, though. Especially
with owning a home.
Halloween the original.
Its a tie: The Amityville
Horror and Omen III: The Final
Conict.
I hate horror movies. The
scariest one Ive ever seen has
to be It since I have severe
coulrophobia.
I always say I hate scary
movies, but I secretly love
them. Especially the original
Halloween.
Dont like them, but if I have to
pick one ... Poltergeist.
Anything Dracula or vampire
and The Texas Chainsaw
Massacre from 1974.
Leatherface is spectacular.
Whats your favorite scary movie?

news of the weird
By Chuck Shepherd
Weekender Wire Services
THERIDEOF YOURLIFE
An option for suicide with
elegance and euphoria is how
Lithuanian-born Ph.D. candidate
Julijonas Urbonas (Londons
Royal College of Art) described
his Euthanasia (Roller) Coaster,
currently on the drawing board.
Urbonas model of gravitational
aesthetics would be a third-mile-
long, 1,600-foot-high thrill ride
engineered to supply10 Gs of
centrifugal force (a spin at about
220 mph) to induce cerebral
hypoxia, forcing blood away from
the head and denying oxygen to
the brain. Euphoria (and disorien-
tation and anxiety, but not pain)
are likely states to precede the
brains shutdown. Urbonas insist-
ed that users would have the op-
tion through the first two minutes
of the three-minute ride to rethink
their decision and bail out (or else
to push the final FALL button).
(Suicide is legal in four European
countries and Oregon and Wash-
ington.)
NEWSTHAT SOUNDS
LIKEAJOKE
The convenience store clerk,
Ms. Falguni Patel, was giving
testimony in the September trial
of Morgan Armstrong (charged
with robbing her in Hudson, Fla.,
in 2009) when she began shaking
and then passed out while seated
in the witness box. Arelative of
Patels approached, removed her
sneaker and held it to Patels face,
without success. The relative
explained that Patel was subject
to such blackouts and that sniff-
ing the sneaker often revives her.
(After paramedics attended to her,
Patel took the rest of the day off
and went back to court the next
morning.)
GREAT ART!
-- Although Moroccan artist
Mehdi-Georges Lahlou, 27, con-
cedes that photographs can be
misinterpreted, he maintains on
his website that he never wants to
hurt peoples feelings. Never-
theless, he said he is proud of his
photo exhibit in which he stands
completely nude, allowing vari-
ous verses of the Quran to be
projected on his skin. His latest
scheduled appearance was at an
art fair in Marrakesh in October.
-- Earlier this year, Marion
Laval-Jeantet won a notable Prix
Ars Electronica award for her
hybrid work that, she said,
intends to blur the boundaries
between species. Laval-Jeantet
stepped onstage in Ljubljana,
Slovenia, as a horse-human,
having earlier injected herself
with horse blood (after prepping
her body for several months with
different horse immunoglobu-
lins). She also walked with stilts
that had hooves affixed to the
bottom. She capped the showby
extracting some of her own pre-
sumably-hybrid blood, to be fro-
zen and stored for future research.
FETISHESONPARADE
Indecent-exposure flashers
appear to be invading even off-
limits sanctuaries in their quest to
be seen in Florida, anyway. In
Sarasota County in September,
Shane Wheatley, 31, was arrested
after a Comcast cable customer
complained that Wheatley had
begun fondling himself while
installing the womans TVser-
vice. Three days earlier, in Nice-
ville, a 14-year-old boy (whose
name was not released) was
charged with indecent exposure
after a worshipper reported him
masturbating openly during ser-
vices at the First United Metho-
dist Church. The boy admitted he
had done the same thing during
services the week before because
he was bored.
LEAST COMPETENT
CRIMINALS
In September, a jury found
Terry Newman, 25, and an associ-
ate guilty of aggravated assault
for a home invasion in San Anto-
nio in 2009, thus adding insult to
Newmans injuries. Newman was
shot by a resident during the
initial invasion, and then again by
another resident when he returned
15 minutes later to retrieve his car.
Finally, after police encountered
Newman following a short chase,
he resisted officers and was shot
again, for the third time. (None of
the injuries was life-threatening.)
(VERY) UNDIGNIFIED
DEATH
An inquest in Yorkshire, En-
gland, in September found that
the February death of Brian De-
pledge, 38, was accidental that
he had inadvertently strangled
himself after falling onto a fold-
ing clothes horse (of the kind
often used to hang recently
washed laundry on to dry). The
coroner concluded that De-
pledges body had become
trapped between rungs in such a
way that the more he moved his
arms to extricate himself, the
tighter was the pressure that was
unavoidably placed on his neck.
ANEWSOF THEWEIRD
CLASSIC
(FEBRUARY2007)
After Emmalee Bauer, 25, was
fired by the Sheraton hotel com-
pany in late 2006, she sought
unemployment compensation
under Iowa lawthat affords bene-
fits to employees terminated
through no fault of their own.
However, the judge decided
Bauer did not qualify. She had
written a 300-page journal, dur-
ing office hours, describing in
detail her efforts to avoid work.
Among her entries: This typing
thing seems to be doing the trick.
It just looks like I amhard at work
on something, and Once lunch
is over, I will come right back to
writing to piddle away the rest of
the afternoon, and Accomplish-
ment is overrated, anyway. W

Two women were charged in September with
what was likely a major art theft for Johnson
City, Tenn. Connie Sumlin, 45, and Gail John-
son, 58, were identified from surveillance video
as the ones who snatched two pieces of art off
the wall in the entrance of a local Arbys restau-
rant (a picture of some pears, and a metal art
object, with an alleged combined value, accord-
ing to the police report, of $1,200).

I
ts safe to say that the state of
the world today pisses a lot of
people off, and musicians are
no different. Some, like Bono, are
in a position to help instigate
change on a larger scale, while
others do what they can with what
they have.
Like talk about 2012 presi-
dential candidate Ron Paul while
driving a van full of sleeping
bandmates to Iowa, as Molotov
Solutions vocalist Nick Arthur
did hands free with the
Weekender last week.
The Las Vegas-based deathcore
band will release its newalbum,
Insurrection Oct. 25 and will
performat Eleanor Rigbys in
Jermyn Wednesday, Oct. 5 with
The Devastated and Fit For An
Autopsy.
Despite its searing guitar, sinis-
ter sounds and screaming vocals,
there is a melodic feel to the
album, which is the first with new
members Richie Gomez (guitar),
Shane Slade (bass) and Jacob
Durrett (drummer). The band is
rounded out by guitarist Robbie
Pina, the only original member
since its 2004 inception. In-
surrections inspiration came
froma place many can relate to.
Just howkind of upset we are,
I guess, with the way things are
going within the world and our
own political systems, Arthur
shared. Were basically saying
its time for a change. Our previ-
ous records pointed out a lot of
flaws and a lot of the screwy
things that were going wrong with
society and our government; this
record is more of a call for change
rather than pointing fingers.
For the band, this newoutlook
made Paul an easy candidate to
support.
Ron Paul stands for every-
thing that really needs to be
done, Arthur said. First and
foremost, getting rid of central
banks, the Federal Reserve (Sys-
tem) is probably the biggest can-
cer within the body of the world
eroding governments, eroding the
value of money. Thats basically
the No. 1thing, and hes against
that and wants to end it, among
other things.
Hes a constitutionalist, he
wants to stick tight to the Consti-
tution, rather than erasing it,
getting rid of the Bill of Rights
and all of our freedoms, hes
fighting for that.
In addition to taking inspiration
fromPaul and the state of the
world, Arthur, who does 90
percent of lyric writing, was
influenced by bands like Bury
Your Dead, The Acacia Strain and
Thrice.
Ima huge, huge Thrice fan,
he said. Thats the band that
started my evolution into metal
and hardcore.
His style of singing takes some
toll on his vocals, so Arthur does
a warm-up routine before each
show.
My voice is kinda going out a
little bit right now, he confessed,
but when we jump into a tour
like we did with this one, and I
dont get a lot of practice in, my
voice kind of goes away a little bit
at the beginning, but then it re-
builds its strength. W

M
ost artists dont choose
the profession because
theyre money hungry or
under the misconception that its
a steady job. Most do it because
they have to. They feel it in their
souls. They dont know how not
to create. That seems to have
been the case for Lou Rogai, an
artist who juggled family, work
and school in the pursuit of his
passion.
I always knew that no matter
what happened in my life, I
would always paint, Rogai said
in a phone interview from his
home in Wayne County.
Mild-mannered and polite
shy, even Rogai, not to be
confused with his musician son
of the same name, seems to save
his ferocity for the canvas. Bold
color and sharp angles create an
impactful presence in acrylic that
will be on display in a show titled
Selected Works: 1972-Present
at the AFA Gallery in Scranton
Oct. 6-29 with an opening recep-
tion Friday, Oct. 7 from 6-9 p.m.
The last time Rogai had a
showing was in 1974 at the Pratt
Institute in Brooklyn where he
received his masters in painting
and sculpture on a fellowship the
same year. The pieces in the AFA
show are a collection of his fa-
vorites, eight of which came
straight from the walls of his
home and the rest from the
homes of his two sons.
Rogai, who attended the
School of Visual Arts in New
York City on a scholarship and
Brooklyn College CUNY before
Pratt, noted that his art isnt
something he can force. There
needs to be a catalyst.
A lot has to do with events
that happen in my lifetime, he
explained. Thats why the paint-
ings dont come as often as I
would like them to arrive.
For example, hes recently
experienced a surge of motivation
thanks to the upcoming show.
I have two more ideas to
paint, Rogai said. The empty
wall was an incentive, because I
had an idea, but once I realized
the walls were going to be empty,
I said, I dont want to stare at
(them) for a month.
Rogai loved his time in school,
especially at Pratt, where he was
provided with a studio space
since his large canvasses were
tough to work with in his tiny
Brooklyn apartment. But after
graduating and with three chil-
dren (he also has a daughter) to
care for, he found a job loading
trailers in a grocery warehouse.
So thats mostly the reason, I
guess, I was not pursuing the art
100 percent, he said. I was just
trying to make a living and pro-
vide for my family. Once in a
while, Id do a canvas.
Rogai did use art as a form of
livelihood, accepting a job about
a year later teaching painting,
drawing and photography to
elementary, junior high and high
school students, which brought
him to NEPA. He taught for 36
years in Sullivan County, N.Y.,
but his painting has always been
more personal.
Ive had people approach me
to do commissions, and I just
told them, I dont do commis-
sions, he said. I wouldnt make
something that someone else
wanted the way they wanted it
I just do it for myself. W

The Gamer
By Dale Culp
Weekender Correspondent
F
or as much love as the
iPhone, iPad and iPod
Touch get fromthe gaming
industry and the people who play
games on these devices every day,
its hard to believe that the humble
Macintosh still doesnt quite get
the support it deserves. Even with
some of the amazing titles that
have come out for the Macintosh,
its very often ignored by devel-
opers.
As the go-to place for game
developers to gather and share
knowledge, content and assets
along with discussing newideas,
iDevGames.comestablished the
uDevGames contest in 2001to
encourage developers to create
games for the Macintosh plat-
form. The contest serves the dual
purpose of recognizing the best
and brightest developers within
the community (even offering
thema chance to win valuable
prizes in addition to the exposure
theyll be getting) while building
up a library of games for Mac
gamers to enjoy. Its a way of
saying that there are, in fact, plen-
ty of great games for the Macin-
tosh by coaxing theminto exist-
ence. And the best part is, its all
free!
The rules of the contest are
rather simple, but they showoff
just howcrazy this whole thing is.
For example, entrants are given
only three months to design their
idea, turn it into a game and polish
it up for the public to play. This
includes all coding, graphics and
sound. Once the deadline arrives,
the game is published and out the
door as is. No patch updates or
re-release versions to save a trou-
bled game and give it a second
chance here. Its got be good
enough the first time around.
This year, users who register
with the site will have until Oct. 14
to play each game and vote on
their favorite. However, you dont
have to be registered just to down-
load and play the games, and they
will be available long after the
contest is over.
Categories range fromBest
Overall Game to Best Graphics,
Best Gameplay, Best Audio, Best
Story, Most Original and Most
Polished. Prizes will be distrib-
uted to the developers of the top
three entries for Best Overall
Game and in each category.
Anyone can enter the contest.
Professionals, experts and begin-
ners are all welcome. And its not
like you have to be a Mac user
yourself to enter the contest, ei-
ther. As long as you can produce
an original game that can be
downloaded to a Mac and double-
clicked within the time allotted,
your entry will be accepted and
eligible to win.
This years event has16 entries
that cover a wide range of genres.
Theres a first-person adventure/
puzzle game, a real-time strategy
game, a classically-inspired role-
playing game, an arcade brawler, a
platformgame, a dungeon craw-
ler, a puzzle game, a shooter, a
word game and many more. In
other words, just about something
for every kind of gamer out there.
As you might suspect, some of
the games are in rough shape, but
as long as you can appreciate the
amount of work that goes into
developing an entire game in only
three months, you might just find
a fewgames you enjoy very much,
despite their looks.
So far, my two favorites are
Kung Fu Killers, an arcade
beat emup, and Flying Swe-
den, a highly unusual strategy/
action game that are each a lot of
fun. If youre a Mac user and have
been looking for some newgames
to play, head over to udev-
games.com/entries and try out as
many as you like. Just dont forget
to register to vote before the con-
test ends on Oct. 14. Instructions
are on the website. W
Flying Sweden is one of many free games available at udevgames.com, which
encourages developers to create games for Macintosh.

novel approach
I
n Erin Morgensterns debut
novel, The Night Circus,
imagery reigns supreme in a
world of night, magic and
dreams. From the very beginning,
the story has a way of pulling the
reader in immersing them into
a place where they watch the
performers in awe. But let it be
known, this circus is like no other.
The towering tents are striped
in white and black, no golds and
crimsons to be seen. No color at
all, save for the neighboring trees
and the grass of the surrounding
fields. Black-and-white stripes on
a grey sky.
Readers follow the lives of two
magicians, Celia and Marco,
under the big top. With candid
descriptions, Morgenstern creates
a fantastical world around read-
ers, inviting them to come one
and come all.
Intriguing and engaging all at
the same time this book takes
us through the sights and sounds
of a traveling circus, as well as the
lives behind it.
The story takes place in the late
19th century when the art of
theater is still widely popular.
However, Morgenstern incorpo-
rates different time periods
throughout the novel, which can
seem unwieldy but she manages
to complete in a seamless manner.
The protagonists, Celia and
Marco are as individual as their
talents. Though both possess the
magic of wonderment, the two
characters are often pinned
against each other to feed into a
rivalry that is Le Cirque de Reves.
The source of disagreement
between the magicians is largely
due to differing beliefs. While
one believes magic is an art,
something that is a part of us, the
other believes magic can be
taught.
Through the sequencing of the
chapters, readers gain insight into
the characters as we follow them
separately and in concurrence.
But, between dark secrets and
animosity, a love story manages
to find its way into the novel
one that is not easily forgotten
even in the final pages.
The novel conveys imagination
for readers who have long since
forgotten the magic of their child-
hood in a place that opens at
nightfall and closes at dawn.
Specifically, the novel is Morgen-
sterns success in being able to
bring forth a fairytale for adults.
Stylistically, even considering
the magical nature of the circus,
Morgenstern writes in a detailed
and succinct manner rarely
ever boring the reader with super-
fluous descriptions, but instead,
embracing her eccentricity as a
writer.
Morgensterns storytelling is
both a gift and a curse for the
reader. Certainly while The
Night Circus was a brilliant
debut, fans will find it hard not to
grow impatient for what she may
have up her sleeve next.

movie review
I
ts easy to see why all of the
ladies love Daniel Craig. Hes
British, which means hes
automatically more sophisticated
than any American man, but he
also has the scary brooding
intensity of a dangerously un-
hinged drifter. Craig is like Colin
Firth crossed with your abusive,
alcoholic, absentee father. Hes
like Ted Bundy minus all of the
murdering but with more-de-
fined pecs. Hes sexy, but in a
way that makes you want to lock
your doors and hide in the cellar.
Yet Craigs smoldering but
vaguely unsettling quality limits
him artistically. There are some
roles he should never attempt to
play such as a beloved school-
teacher, Santa Claus or anyone
who wouldnt strangle anything
while shirtless. Craigs lack of
versatility is essentially one of
the many problems that plague
the goofy yet oddly entertaining
Dream House. Craig simply
doesnt have the warmth or play-
fulness to portray a caring family
man, and the scenes where hes
flirting with his wife or clown-
ing around with his kids al-
ternate between unintentional
hilarity and unsettling creepi-
ness.
In Dream House, Craig
plays the awkwardly named Will
Atenton, a publisher who retires
from his job and moves into a
new home with his family. As
Will adjusts to his new sur-
roundings, a shocking secret is
revealed: The previous residents
were murdered by a man named
Peter Ward. Even more dis-
turbing, Peter has just been re-
leased from a five-year stint in a
mental asylum and has been
seen skulking around outside of
Wills titular dream house. But
who is Peter Ward, really? And
why does everyone just sort of
walk away from Will whenever
he asks about the previous resi-
dents? And most importantly,
what the hell is up with that
scene where Will just notices
that one room in his basement is
where Gothic kids hang out and
smoke clove cigarettes? Really?
He just notices that room for the
first time? What? Did he buy the
house with his eyes closed? How
could he not know that room
was there? Jeepers H. Creepers!
If you couldnt already guess,
Dream House is driven by not
one but two very dopey and
illogical twists twists so slop-
pily executed they raise more
questions than answers. Like any
M. Night Shyamalan movie that
isnt The Sixth Sense, Dream
Houses world-turned-upside-
down premise is unconvincing
and makes very little sense even
under the most cursory observa-
tions. But unlike Shyamalans
painfully self-important turds,
Dream House is so unbeliev-
ably dumb and unpretentious
that its actually kind of fun.
Theres a lot to laugh at, from
the unlikely meaning behind
Wills full name to the cockeyed
Hitler-esque toupee that kind of
hovers above Craigs head to
Rachel Weiszs continued insist-
ence on speaking with a shaky
American accent in every movie
she appears in. Could somebody
please sit her down and calmly
explain to her that she isnt fool-
ing anybody? She sounds like
someone from the Midwest
trying to imitate someone from
the South while speaking
through a yawn. Stop encourag-
ing her, Hollywood!
Ill-conceived and more than
just a little silly, Dream House
tries and fails to blow your
mind. But with that said, Dream
House does succeed as a genu-
ine object of kitsch and is highly
recommended for anyone who
ever wanted to hear a clearly
uncomfortable James Bond say,
Did you pee your pants? Did
you pee your pants? in a
strained cutesy voice.

ugh Jackman might have a
reputation as one of Holly-
woods nicest guys, but
that hasnt stopped himfrom
connecting with some pretty
shady characters.
Consider Wolverine, quite
possibly the surliest superhero in
the comic book galaxy. Or the
sleazy attorney Jackman played to
perfection in the little-seen De-
ception. Or Real Steels Charlie
Kenton, a hothead who, among his
other flaws, is one of the worlds
worst dads.
Truth be told, I enjoyed playing
that, says Jackman with a laugh.
I have an11-year-old son (and a
6-year-old daughter.) And, litera-
lly, there are times that you want to
say things, and you just have to
shove it back down inside. Ive
walked out of rooms so frustrated
and in fear of what Imgoing to
say in that moment. For the three
months (of shooting the movie), it
all just came out.
As if connecting with his inner-
badass wasnt fun enough for
Jackman, he also grooved on
playing a grizzled ex-boxer whos
given body and soul to the fight
game.
When Real Steel begins, its
2020 and Charlies sport has been
taken over by 8-foot steel robots.
To make a living, hes become a
coach and promoter, working
dingy venues across the country.
At his lowest ebb, Charlie reluc-
tantly agrees to assume custody of
his estranged son Max (Dakota
Goyo). The pair winds up coming
together to rebuild and train
Atom, a bot boxer one step away
fromthe scrap heap. For Charlie,
its his Rocky moment, his one
last shot at the big time.
Hes a guy whos lost belief in
himself, Charlie has, notes Jack-
man, 43. He thinks the world has
passed himover. He doesnt feel
anything anymore because its
easier to live that way. When life is
disappointing to you and you get
hurt so much, you end up just
switching off.
Boxing movies have been a
mainstay in Hollywood dating
back to the days of silents when
both Charlie Chaplin and Buster
Keaton played pugilists. Since
then, everyone fromJohn Garfield
and Kirk Douglas to Robert De
Niro and Hilary Swank has
stepped into the ring.
Jackman thinks he knows why
boxing is so popular with film-
makers. Dramatically, its such a
perfect scenario, he notes. You
have a very confined space and
clear delineations of victor and
vanquished. You probably have
the greatest test there is for a
human being in terms of courage,
heart, mental acuity and brawn.
Asked to name his favorite
boxing movie, Jackson selects the
Muhammad Ali documentary
When We Were Kings. Its not
only a great boxing movie, I think
thats one of the greatest movies of
all time, he raves. And I love
RockySome people have said
to me that there are things in Real
Steel reminiscent of Rocky. You
bet there are, and why not? I feel
like this is Rocky for a new
generation.
Real Steel benefited fromthe
expertise of executive producer
Steven Spielberg, who warned
director Shawn Levy (Date
Night) not to rely solely on com-
puter-generated bots. For the sake
of the actors, the production built
life-size robots which were oper-
ated by human handlers via high-
tech remote control panels.
Shawn never lost sight of the
fact that we need to make people
feel for these robots, says Jack-
man. This is not a showcase for
special effects. This is not a movie
where youre going, Oh, wow,
cool. The only goal is that, at the
end, people should be cheering
and feeling for that robot.
In the movie, the mechanized
fighters do most of the boxing
while Jackman works as Atoms
corner man. Still, the actor wanted
to look like a grappler whod spent
his life in the ring. Enter Sugar
Ray Robinson, who served as the
films fight choreographer and
Jackmans trainer.
Id already been doing some
training when I sawhimthe first
time and he was, like, Youve got
a little more work to do, pal. So,
he was honest with me about
that, says Jackman.
Although Jackman was still in
fighting trimthanks to his por-
trayal of Wolverine, he had to
develop a whole newset of skills
for Charlie Kenton. When I play
Wolverine, I dont always have to
keep my fists up, guarding my
face Wolverine has claws and
can take your head off. So, on this
one, I had to be a little more spe-
cific about my training.
Speaking of Wolverine, as
anyone whos seen X-Men: First
Class knows, Jackman had a
hilarious cameo in the movie as
the typically churlish superhero.
Much to the actors delight, Wol-
verine got to drop an f-bomb, a
first for the franchise.
They asked me to do that bit a
year before they shot it, recalls
Jackman. I said, Pitch me the
concept. I thought, OK, yeah, I
like that. I said, Is anyone else
swearing in the movie? and they
said, We dont think so. I said,
Promise me no one else swears in
the movie and Imin.
Its only a matter of time, says
Jackman, before The Wolverine
goes in front of the cameras.
Walk the Line helmer James
Mangold recently took over the
directorial reins fromDarren
Aronofsky (The Wrestler) and
the script is undergoing a final
tweak.
Its going to be a little darker
and I think a little more truer to
the character of Wolverine, says
Jackman, noting that Chris
McQuarries screenplay is by far
the best script that weve had (for
an X-Man movie).
After all these years, does Jack-
man ever get tired of playing the
character who made himfamous?
No, I love Wolverine, he says.
X-Men was the first filmI did
in America and somehowI lucked
upon the greatest of all the super-
hero roles because he feels very
human to me. He has dilemmas
and demons. When I play Wolve-
rine, I dont feel like a guy with
claws and ridiculous hair. I feel
like a guy battling against life.
Next up for Jackman is the
big-screen version of the Broad-
way musical Les Miserables.
Under TomHoopers (The Kings
Speech) direction, Jackman will
play the parolee-turned-industri-
alist Jean Valjean who is pursued
to hell and back by the exacting
police inspector Javert (Russell
Crowe.)
If youre going to do a musical,
it helps that its one of the most
beloved musicals of all time, says
Jackman. Jean Valjean is a great
part Fromworking with the
director of The Kings Speech to
Russell Crowe playing Javert, this
movie feels special to me.
If Jackman is worried about the
iffy track record of recent musi-
cals at the box office, hes not
letting on. Look, I just did a
movie about robot boxing thats
supposed to make both my moth-
er-in-lawand my11-year-old son
happy, he says with a laugh. I
knowwhats a tough task. W
Charlie Kenton (Hugh Jackman) works with robot fighter Atom as his son Max (Dakota Goyo) watches in this scene
from Real Steel.

Primus is a band that hasnt
been heard from in quite a
while. Among many of todays
music fans, the slap-bass-centric
trio headed by the ever-eccentric
Les Claypool is probably just
about as well known for per-
forming the South Park theme
song as they were for carving
out a truly unique niche in the
world of alternative music dur-
ing the 1990s. However, after
years of silence, the band re-
cently released Green Nauga-
hyde, its first collection of new
material in more than a decade.
In the past, the subject matter
of Primus music always walked
a fine line between fantasy and
reality. On Green Naugahyde,
the band retains that warped
sense of humor with songs such
as Lee Van Cleef or Eyes of
the Squirrel, but Primus pro-
vides some social commentary
on the album, too. Hipster cul-
ture and our societys material-
istic ways come under fire on
Hennepin Crawler and Eter-
nal Consumption Engine, and
the band shares its opinion on
our obsession with reality shows
on Moron TV. While for some
it may be disconcerting to hear
Primus sing about real-world
issues, the bands humorous take
helps to point out just how
ridiculous they are.
In terms of the music itself,
Green Naugahyde is exactly
what one would expect. Once
again, Claypool uses the album
as a vehicle to show off his
skills with the bass guitar, and
the entire album has a heavy,
loose feel to it because of that.
Some tracks, such as Last
Salmon Man or Tragedys
A-Comin, have a sort of sing-
song, rambling quality to them,
but much of the rest of the
album has a good rhythm, and
Primus sounds refreshed and
energized after the time off.
While Green Naugahyde
probably is not the years most
groundbreaking album, it is
refreshing to hear from Primus
again. Longtime fans will enjoy
hearing something new from an

It is quite rare to make music that
is both humorous and disturbing at the
same time. Indie rockers Andrew Jack-
son Jihad is best known for its off-
beat social commentary via its music,
touching on the good, the bad and,
yes, the very ugly things that make up
human nature.
The two-man show guitarist/
vocalist Sean Bonnette and upright
bassist/vocalist Ben Gallaty recently
released its fourth studio album,
Knife Man, and despite the occasion-
al unsettling lyric on tracks such as
Back Pack, Andrew Jackson Jihads
darker side is always encased in up-
beat and energetic music.
The duo has the frenzied intensity
of a punk band, yet maintains the
quiet storytelling quality of a folk act.
Each of this albums 16 tracks touches
on a different issue that is pervasive in
our culture, including racism, violence
and love.
AJJ mocks it all on this album,
beginning with the short intro The
Michael Jordan of Drunk Driving,
during which it comments on drunk
driving and how the driver plays his
final game. American Tune is a
amusing take on why its easier to be
a straight white man in America while
the track People II 2: Still Peoplin
is about bad decisions and hardships.
Whether you are into this type of
music or not, there will be something
on this album that youll like or, at
the very least, will make you think.
Andrew Jackson Jihad has a dark hu-
mor that is both admirable and witty.

Jihad's witty
and off-beat
remarks
For the past decade, it seemed90s alt-
rockers Bushwas kaput. Followingits de-
mise, frontmanGavinRossdale went onto
helmInstitute, dipintoactingandbecome a
familymanwithwife GwenStefani.
But last summer, BushwithRossdale
anddrummer RobinGoodridge as the only
original members reformedandrecently
releasedThe Sea of Memories, its first
albumin10years.
The Mirror Of The Signs, is a good
startingpoint, withstaccatodrums andswir-
lingguitars, andRossdales vocals have held
up. Leadsingle, The SoundOf Winter, has
veryrhythmic guitars andRossdale beckon-
ing, Lets walkthroughthe fire together.
The sludgyAll MyLife precedes stand-
out trackThe Afterlife, whichhas a punky
guitar anddrumdance anda repetitive echo
reminiscent of Mouth from1996s Ra-
zorblade Suitcase.
The prettyAll Night Doctors is another
highlight, whichstarts withprominent piano
andRossdales emotive vocals. Were you
ever mylove? he wonders. About twomin-
utes in, a great fuzzyguitar kicks in.
BabyCome Home sounds similar tothe
groups1995breakout, EverythingZen.
RedLight has an80s-esque drumfill that
makes the songfeel dated, while the punchy
Shes AStallion sounds like 90s Bush
andthats a compliment. Closer Be Still My
Love has prominent bass drum, searing
guitar andanalmost somber feel. Be still,
be still mylove, Rossdale implores.
The Sea of Memories is a continuation
of the soundthat set Bushapart fromother
bands of its heyday, muchof whichwas
because of Rossdales incomparable vocals.
Fans will welcome the album, but its too
soontotell howitll holdupwithother listen-
ers.

ralphie report
the
By Ralphie Aversa
Special to the Weekender
T
imHalperin was a week
away from making history
on American Idol not
just once, but twice. He became
the first contestant in the shows
history to perform an original
track, The Last Song, and make
the Top 24. The following week,
Halperin lost. Had he been voted
on, the Omaha, Neb., native
wouldve been the first compet-
itor to perform a TomPetty song
on Idol.
(Pettys) traditionally not let
(Idol) do any of his songs,
Halperin explained, calling in
from Dallas to promote his new
album, Rise &Fall. But Jim-
my Iovine, whos president of
Interscope Records, he called
Tom Pettys manager up.
The record mogul played an
instrumental role in Pettys career,
so for Iovine, it was almost as
simple as calling in a favor to a
longtime friend.
Certainly there would have
been a bit of pressure on Halperin
had he been the first to perform a
Petty cut on the show. But despite
his elimination, the singer/song-
writer continued to pursue his
dream of performing music. That
certainly brought along more
pressure, with this chapter culmi-
nating in the release of Rise &
Fall.
American Idol was absolute-
ly great, I wouldnt have traded
that time on that show for any-
thing, Halperin said. But the
tough part comes after the show,
because basically what you are is
a reality-TV star.
Halperins honest perspective
forced him to find creative ways
within the legalities of his Idol
contract to keep his momentum
going until he was allowed to
release an album. That led him to
97 BHTs Kidd Kraddick in
the Morning. The singer be-
came an integral part of the show
this summer, even appearing at
The Mall at Steamtown with the
shows Big Al Mack to perform
in center court. Halperin sang
originals in the morning and took
part in a reoccurring segment
called, Idol Got it Wrong. Each
week, Kraddick would play a
performance from the show and
then Halperins performance of
that same song in studio. Listen-
ers would vote on who sang bet-
ter.
The listeners chose Halperins
renditions every week, thus say-
ing in essence that the show did
get it wrong with his early elim-
ination. But the numbers dont lie
either: Halperins debut topped
the iTunes Singers and Song-
writers chart last week.
TAIOCRUZ DROPS NEW
SINGLE
He came to dance, dance,
dance and dance. Now, Taio
Cruz is paying for that night of
partying from Dynamite in his
new track, Hangover, which
was leaked to radio last Friday.
The chorus screams headache
as Taio shouts, I got a hangover,
whoooooaaaaah, ohhhh! Dr.
Luke produced the song, which
features a verse from someone
who may know a thing or two
about partying: Flo Rida.
The single is the first cut re-
leased from Cruzs forthcoming
LP. The album is set for a Novem-
ber release and is tentatively
titled, TY.O.
Cruzs last album, Rokstarr,
yielded the hit records Break
Your Heart and Dynamite. The
two tracks collectively sold more
than 21 million copies worldwide.
The latter single also won Cruz
three Billboard Music Awards
in 2011. Rokstarr was released
in the United States on June 11,
2010 and served as the U.K. sing-
ers debut album in the U.S. W

By Alan K. Stout
Weekender Music Columnist
A
ny parent will tell
you that when
theres something
wrong with their child,
they immediately know.
Sleepy eyes can mean a
cold is coming on. An
unexpected afternoon nap
can mean a fever. As a
parent, you are aware of it,
and you take care of it.
You help your child.
Dave Partenio of Car-
bondale is trying to help
his child and others. And
hes taking on something
much more serious than a
simple case of the sniffles.
Partenio is helping orga-
nize this Sundays Rock Against
Diabetes event at Kildares in
Scranton, which was inspired by
his 8-year-old son, Noah.
Partenio says it was 14 months
ago that his son woke up one
morning after battling what his
doctor had said was a stomach
virus. Something, however, was
wrong.
He walked into the living
room six pounds lighter from the
day before, says Partenio. His
eyes were sunken, and his skin
tone had faded to grayish blue.
His doctor suggested we wait
until the next day to bring him
into the office, but we opted for
the emergency room. We soon
learned that his blood sugar was
over 1,000 and the staff worked
vigorously over the next several
hours to bring his levels down
and prevent him from going into
a diabetic coma or shock.
Noah was soon diagnosed with
juvenile diabetes and has faced
many challenges. Partenio says
his school lost the instructions on
how to help care for him. He says
the administration singled him
out from other students, isolating
him in the nurses office during
lunches and recesses. He says
other students took notice and
began to make fun of him, and
that when he felt ill, he would
sometimes be sent back to class
without any treatment.
Exclusion from society for
any adult is tough, but for an
8-year old boy within his school
environment, its far more da-
maging, says Partenio, adding
that a move to a new and more
accommodating school has
helped improve the situation.
His one wish is to be like
other children, he says. Hes
doing good. His spirits are better,
and hes not secluded from kids
anymore. He doesnt have to sit
with the nurse all day.
Sundays Rock Against Dia-
betes will attempt to raise mon-
ey for the Juvenile
Diabetes Research
Foundation and help
create awareness for the
more than 15,000 chil-
dren that are diagnosed
with type 1 diabetes in
the U.S. each year.
Proceeds from the show
will also help fund the
development of a local
social network for chil-
dren with diabetes.
As we got further
involved in putting
together the show, we
found out that there are
other people in the area
having similar issues,
says Partenio. One gentleman
told me that when he was in
school, it was so misunderstood
that when he would go down to
the office, they would actually
tell him to just go back to class
and put your head on the desk.
Theres just not an awareness of
how serious this is. You can
actually die from having a sugar
level thats extremely low or
extremely high.
Partenio says that even the
parking lot of Kildares will be a
part of the event, with tents of-
fering free pastries and a video
game zone. There will also be
food and drink specials inside
and six bands Dashboard
Mary, Pink Slip, Maybe Some-
day, Nowhere Slow, Graces
Downfall and Absolution that
were more than willing to help.
The people from these six
bands have been fantastic, Parte-
nio says. As soon as they heard
the story, they were all on board.
They all said they definitely
wanted to help make a difference
and make people aware. W

bitch & brag
By Jeff and Amanda of 98.5 KRZ
Special to the Weekender
Tips
By Janelle Engle
Special to the Weekender
from a
barbie chick
Amandas Bitch:
People who exploit them-
selves in a public forum for
fame dont typically bother
me. Jersey Shore is my
guilty pleasure, and Ive
always had a special place
in my heart for the train
wrecks on Bridezillas.
Heres what makes me sick:
People who arent even on a
reality show that make a
mockery of their personal
lives purposely in a public
way. Its been hard to ignore
the whole Tareq and Mi-
chaele Salahi drama, and it
just continues to get more
and more ridiculous. We
first knew them as the
White House Party Crash-
ers, then they joined the
cast of the oh-so-classy The
Real Housewives of D.C.
Now, after reports of
bankruptcy and trouble in
paradise, the two have not
just split publicly, they first
made it appear like Michaele
was kidnapped, and in a
dramatic turn of events, she
left her husband for Neal
Schon, the guitarist for Jour-
ney. Now shes flaunting her
blonde self all over the stage
in true groupie form follow-
ing Journey on its tour
while Tareq is now pitching
a dating show.
She literally left him
weeks ago, and hes trying
to land a dating show? If
the show happens, itll be
called Seducing Salahi and
14 women will compete for
his affections. Do you know
a single woman who would
actually want to compete for
this fame whores love?
Someone needs to bring
these two back down to
earth.
Jeff Brags:
I think its a safe bet that
most women would prefer to
be lean, firm and flexible
and most guys would love to
be bigger, stronger and more
cut. And why not? We all
want to look our best and
feel great physically. The
age-old problem is how to
get there. Eat healthier?
Work out more? Do more
cardio? Lift heavier? Pilates?
Yoga? Zumba? Whew!
The possibilities are end-
less, and if youre anything
like me, youve tried bounc-
ing from one workout to
another, from one strategy to
another, from one gym to
another and never seeing any
dramatic results.
That brings me to Tony
Horton, the creator of P90X.
Not only is it now one of
the most successful infomer-
cials in history, but it deliv-
ers exactly what it promises!
Personally, I spent 30 years
going to various gyms and
never looking any different.
Finally, after turning 51, I
decided to order P90X. I
was a little nervous. I heard
how tough it was but
couldnt stop watching that
damn infomercial where just
normal average people like
myself had amazing trans-
formations! So I gave it 100
percent for the 90 days and
was kind of shocked at my
results. But I gained some-
thing more important from it
than just looking better: It
made me feel so much bet-
ter! When you can feel your
core muscles when you
move, when you gain more
flexibility, when your endu-
rance levels explode, and
you can do far more than
you ever thought you could,
the feeling is indescribable.
And trust me, the older you
get, the more important this
becomes.
I know Tony and told him
personally on more than one
occasion, P90X changed my
life. Literally. Its brutally
hard, but worth every minute
of sweat and pain. Working
out for me is now a daily
ritual whether its P90X or
one of the parent companys
other great programs.
A buddy of mine, Larry
Crimi and I formed a local
group of P90X fans. If you
want to see what real-life
results average people can
get, check out NEPA90.com.
(By the way, theres a new
P90X coming late this year,
so get ready for more in-
fomercials! They may just
change your life, too!) W
Even post breakup, the White House Party Crashers
Michaele and Tareq Salahi continue to be ridiculous.
Jeff swears by and brags about Tony Hortons P90X.
T
he education I get
from simply living
in the big city has
been teaching me as
much as the school I
attend there is in-
spiration everywhere, and
people seem to be way
more adventurous and
execute new trends in
ways I never thought
before. Just walking to
class every day feels as if
Im walking through the
pages of a fashion maga-
zine with inspiring looks
on every sidewalk block.
But my favorite part of
the city and living in
Philadelphia now has got
to be the spontaneous
events and opportunities
that seem to get thrown
my way just for being at
the right place at the right
time. Through the school I attend
The Art Institute of Philadel-
phia a few other students and
I got the opportunity to volunteer
for a fashion show by helping set
up beforehand and then got in-
vited to the event as a thank
you for helping out.
The fashion show took place at
Liberty Place, a mall right in
center city Philadelphia, and the
runway consisted of models
going up and down an escalator.
The runway show showcased all
the latest trends youll be seeing
all over this fall, from casual
wear to evening wear and even
had a few items designed by
students from my school. I
thought Id share some of the
trends I saw with all of you so
you know what to expect when
you hit the stores and can start
making your must-have fall-
shopping list. (That is, if you
havent already had one started
since mid August like I have.)
Heres an overlook of some of
the trends I saw. Most important,
color took a front seat in every
outfit. While usually fall is filled
with dark to medium colors, this
season has bright colors every-
where. Lots of reds, purples and
a dark mustard color are the main
color palette this season. The
runway was also filled with
creams and khakis as opposed to
last seasons black and grays.
Many outfits even used color
blocking, adding even more
emphasis to the brightness of this
seasons fashions.
While colors were bright, the
prints were even louder, some-
thing even more unusual for this
season. Lots of animal print, in
particular cheetah, as well as
some fur coats for a very glamor-
ous night-out look. Must haves
for the season include a trench
coat, something animal printed,
colorful and patterned tights and
knee-high boots. Now, while
keeping these things in mind, its
time to get shopping! W

merchandising at The Art
Institute of Philadelphia.

Style files
By Rachel A. Pugh
Weekender General Manager
Stockings still
heating things up
Bare legs in cold weather are a no-no, so turn to stockings
like these to keep your legs covered.
I
have a love-hate relation-
ship with hosiery. Tights
and I get along just ne,
but pantyhose and I often
battle it out. Heres why: They
are uncomfortable, I am in
constant fear of them ripping.
Getting a run in my stockings
nearly sends me into a tizzy, so
the fear of that gives me anxiety.
One little imperfection on a pair
of hosiery, and your entire look
is off. So I guess, in a way, ho-
siery has too much power within
an ensemble.
Being a control freak about
my wardrobe, this can cause
confrontation, which is why if
I do wear hosiery, I always buy
an identical back up pair to take
along with me in case I acciden-
tally brush up against something
and injure them. Lets face it,
were ladies so eventually at
some point during the day there
will be a pulling down and
pulling up of pantyhose. And if
worn with caution, however.
Sexy and classy is what youre
striving for, not trashy. You want
to look well-put together, not
like a street walker. If you pair
some daring pantyhose up with
the wrong outt or pair of heels,
youre asking to be called a
hooker. And nobody wants that.
So have a little talk with
your hosiery and work out your
differences as they really are a
must have in the fall and winter.
Bare legs in blistery cold condi-
tions look silly, so some type of
hosiery is a necessary evil. May
as well make them look sinfully
sexy and embrace the snug cas-
ings. W
you are in a hurry in a ladies
restroom, it is quite easy to put
your ngernails right through
the thin material, ripping a hole
in them. Its the worst.
That being said, I still nd
hosiery as an essential part of
my collection. So if Im going
to brave it, Im going all out and
wearing the sexiest damn pair of
pantyhose I can nd. Although
I had a thing for thigh highs
back in the 90s, those days are
over for me as I have no time
to constantly be adjusting them.
Are they hot? They sure are, but
thigh highs and garters, snaps
and gadgets are all just a bit
much, and I dont want have to
strap into my hosiery to gear up
for a sure battle throughout the
day.
But stockings with piping
down the back or a sexy pair
of shnets? Now were talk-
ing my language. These types
of hosiery must be bought and
n to stockings ckings

Special to the Weekender
N
early1billion people on the
planet do not have access to
clean drinking water 1
billion, thats a lot of people. Its not
that water is completely scarce in
the world; its just not easily acces-
sible to a lot of areas. Without
water, we could not exist, life could
not exist. If we look back about 100
years ago to NewYork and London,
they were both cities that carried a
lot of infectious diseases. It was the
reforms of water and sanitation that
allowed the cities to progress and
control disease. According to a poll
by the British Medical Journal,
clean water and sanitation have
been the most important medical
advancement since the1840s.
We knowthat water is a renew-
able resource, however we seemto
be depleting that resource faster
than we knowwhat to do with it.
With areas in the world that lack
safe water and sanitation and with
90 percent of the 30,000 deaths that
occur every week being fromun-
safe water, it is safe to say we have a
water crisis on our hands.
Charity Water is a non-profit
organization that has recently
caught my attention. The orga-
nization brings clean and safe
drinking water to people in under-
developed parts of the world. In a
little more than three years, Charity
Water has funded nearly 4,000
water projects in19 countries. With
the completion of these projects,
the organization will provide clean,
safe drinking water for more than
1.9 million people.
The solution to unsafe water is
rather simple, fromdeep-drilled
wells to water-filtration systems,
clean water can be available to
everyone. Charity Water is operated
by a group of private donors, so
every dollar that is donated by the
public goes directly to those in
need.
There are lots of different ways
you can get involved. If you visit
NewYork City, you can attend a
monthly volunteer night to help out
in the office and meet other sup-
porters. You can also create a fun-
draising campaign to help collect
donations for cleaner water.
Water changes everything and is
the most important resource we
have. Excessive use of groundwater
is depleting our precious resource
and overuse and pollution of water
are not only harming the planet,
theyre killing our population.
For more information on Charity
Water visit charitywater.org. W
Not a
watered-down
problem
Charity Water is a non-profit organization that brings
clean, safe drinking water to people in underdeveloped
parts of the world.

SPEAK & SEE, FROM
PAGE 40
stage
S
tealthy, skulking and sur-
reptitious, cats may have
nine lives, but they also
have a penchant for Fancy Feast
and harbor an unexplainable
fascination with birds and other
diminutive creatures.
As you can imagine, that
makes it difficult to relate, espe-
cially if your role in a certain
upcoming play requires you to
take on those attributes as your
own.
It was extremely difficult to
keep telling yourself youre not a
human being, youre a cat, said
Lee LaChette, director and cho-
reographer of the forthcoming
local production of Cats. And
its like you have to watch your
arms and what theyre doing, and
youve got to crawl instead of
walk. So, a lot of it was interest-
ing.
The much-loved musical will
be produced on a NEPA stage for
the first time by Phoenix Theat-
rics Young Adults at The Phoe-
nix Performing Arts Centre in
Duryea on weekends Oct. 7-23.
Cats has been translated to
more than 20 languages and has
gained notoriety since its opening
at the New London Theatre in
London in 1981. And according
to LaChette, the rights are avail-
able for purchase from Rodgers
& Hammerstein, with the cost
based on each theaters seating
and average ticket prices. Phoe-
nix was able to get the ball roll-
ing on the production thanks to
those standards, along with help
from its sponsor, Bath Fitter.
The popularity of the show and
the ease of obtaining it beg the
question: Why hasnt the produc-
tion been staged in the area be-
fore?
Well, its pretty challenging,
LaChette explained. The music
itself, of course, because of it
being Andrew Lloyd Webber (the
original composer). Plus, it being
a rock opera, its non-stop music
and dancing. I think the dancing,
more than anything, will hinder a
lot of people from wanting to do
it, because its a lot of choreog-
raphy, non-stop for two hours.
Because of that, LaChette and
the performers have taken more
time than usual to prepare for
Cats, choosing to forego the
standard preparation period of
six or eight weeks that the com-
pany usually prescribes to.
Weve put a lot of time and
effort into it, she said. We
started back in July. We started
right after the Fourth of July, so
weve been working on this for
three months.
With the exception of the
stage, which remains the same
throughout the entire show, every
aspect of Cats is in-depth,
particularly the costumes, music
and makeup.
We had makeup rehearsals,
LaChette said. Everybody in the
cast got a diagram of their face
and learned how to put their own
makeup on. We actually took
diagrams of the faces right from
the Broadway (production).
She noted that the company
also received help in the form of
backtracks from Rodgers &
Hammerstein, because it would
be impossible to fit an entire
orchestra in the theater. And
there will be some special ef-
fects, like a black-lit stage.
To transform into our feral
friends, the crew at Phoenix put a
lot of fur, sweat and tears into the
process
Thats probably why nobody
else wants to touch it, except
somebody crazy like me, La-
Chette said, laughing. Its a
challenge. W

tech talk
By Nick Delorenzo
Special to the Weekender
B
arnes & Noble has been
high on the hog for the
past few months as its
brilliantly executed Nook Color
e-reader captured the limelight.
But Amazon has been burning
the midnight oil, and what it
came up with was the Fire, its
own color e-book reader.
Only time will tell if this Kin-
dle is as good as its monochro-
matic kin at burning through the
books, but it has other, unique
strengths.
First, the similarities. Both the
Kindle Fire and the Nook Color
are based upon Android, Goo-
gles open-source mobile oper-
ating system. Like the Nook, the
Fire has an extremely clear and
vibrant 7-inch IPS display. Its
also got a Gorilla Glass crack-
resistant screen and comes with
512 MB of RAM and 8GB of
built-in storage.
Unlike the Nook, the Fire has a
dual-core processor. While it
might seem strange to talk about
processor speed for e-book read-
ers, its not the Nook Color
actually makes for an extremely
competent and attractive Android
tablet, but it runs on an 800 GHz
processor. With a 1 GHz dual-
core processor, the Kindle Fire
should be more attractive to
power users.
Another factor may appeal to
those in search of savings; the
Kindle Fire is priced at $200,
compared to the Nook Colors
$250.
The Fire also offers access to
the Amazon Appstore, a WiFi
connection (there is no 3G access
included), and all of the usual
books and such that previous
versions of the Kindle have pro-
vided. And the Fire has Whis-
persync (allowing you to use one
or more Kindle devices or read-
ers while saving your book-
marks).
Theres another major differ-
ence. Since the Fire is fairly
powerful for an e-reader, it can
be used to watch television
shows and movies. And the
Whispersync capability extends
to that content, so if youre using
Amazons on-demand video
service on your TV at home, you
can start up where you stopped
on your mobile device.
All in all, the Kindle Fire ap-
pears to be a great value a
powerful color e-book reader for
$200. W

As some of you may already know, Horror Hall is a 100% fundraiser for the Plymouth Township
Fire & Rescue company; Tilbury Station. Due to the recent large scale flooding of the Wyoming Valley
our facility is in use as a disaster relief center to assist our community. Our volunteer members are also
busy helping our friends and neighbors with clean up efforts. Due to the massive scale of these
endeavors, we will be unable to open and run Horror Hall 2011. We truly regret this decision, however
it is necessary to allow us to focus on the task at hand. We would like to thank everyone for their past
patronage and their anticipated future patronage. We will see you all next year for an even bigger and
better frighteningly good time at Horror Hall 2012.
Have a safe and Happy Halloween season.
The members of the Plymouth Township Fire & Rescue Co. Tilbury Station
p.m.; Sat., 12:30-1:30 p.m. $5/class. Call

LIBRA(SEPT. 23-OCT. 22)
Its amazing how some peoples stories
change when theyre backed into a corner.
Why would you trust someone so slippery,
when theyve already proven that theyll
reveal some portion of an inconvenient,
embarrassing or shameful truth only when
they feel they have no other choice? While
its important to generally give people the
benefit of the doubt, and mostly be trust-
ing instead of suspicious, in this case a
little cynical wariness is warranted. In-
nocent until proven guilty is a fine bot-
tom line, but once proven a little guilty, its
okay to assume theres a high likelihood of
greater guilt, at least until you get evidence
to the contrary.
SCORPIO (OCT. 23-NOV. 21)
When people put on blinders and engage
in the kind of tunnel vision youre some-
what famous for, they can inadvertently be
so insensitive or clueless that theyre ac-
tually downright cruel. Since you know
how it is to engage in single-minded, even
obsessive, behavior, a cautionary word
from you might be better received than
from someone with more reason to be
self-righteous. Im a big fan of intensity,
but I think theres room even in that to
hold onto bare minimum human decency.
Since someone you know may be having a
hard time hanging on to theirs, give them a
hand.
SAGITTARIUS (NOV. 22-DEC. 21)
It sucks when the rules get changed after
the games begun. Youre willing to jump
into any challenging situation and work it
until things work out in your favor; howev-
er, thats difficult to do when the param-
eters of your circumstances mutate con-
stantly and unpredictably. However, in-
stead of harping (justifiably) on the unfair-
ness of it all, you need to accept whats
happening and work with it nevertheless.
You can still win this game as long as
youre not determined to play it how you
thought it ought to be played before you
began. As mentioned, the rules have
changed and may continue to do so.
Adapt.
CAPRICORN (DEC. 22-JAN. 19)
Yes, much of the little shit you have to
deal with right now is annoying. No one
contests that. However, its all little shit. In
the grand scheme of things, your frustra-
tions actually a luxury. The only reason
youre getting worked up about this crap is
because youre lucky enough to not have
more serious stuff to worry about. Thats a
blessing. Remember that, and see if you
can let more, if not all, of this trivial crap
slide. These tiny, nagging issues are,
weirdly signs of just how great your life is.
Isnt it about time you noticed?
AQUARIUS (JAN. 20-FEB. 18)
Trying to get through some situations
without pissing anyone off is, quite simply,
impossible. In fact, attempting to avoid
anger may have negative repercussions:
Fear of rage or conflict may end up leading
you down exactly the worst possible path
through these circumstances, or simply
make matters worse (and people more
angry). You must resign yourself to bear-
ing the brunt of others fury no matter
what, and concentrate instead on trying to
find the smartest and/or most honorable
route here. Then, when people get pissed,
at least youll know youve done the right
thing (or as close to it as possible).
PISCES (FEB. 19-MARCH 20)
Dont shit where you sleep or where
you work, eat, love or live. Its all too easy
to mess up what youve got with a moment
of hormone-induced stupidity (perhaps
losing your temper, or hooking up with
someone you shouldnt), especially right
now. Draw strong, clear lines between the
different parts of your life and forbid your-
self to cross them. I know you love bend-
ing and breaking rules, especially ones like
these and you can, later. Right now,
though, keep everything behind its own
wall, no matter the temptation to tear those
walls down. Whats one wall? Not much.
But these are all connected. Rip one down,
and theyll all tumble to the ground; good
luck finding something you recognize
while picking through all that rubble.
ARIES (MARCH 21-APRIL19)
Youre in a prime position to be a scape-
goat, taking the blame for something thats
not actually your responsibility. Naturally,
I can understand your desire to vocif-
erously protest such an unfair burden, but
unfortunately your arguments are only
likely to make you look guiltier, instead of
more innocent. Thats right, youre damned
if you do, damned if you dont. Therefore,
spare yourself the effort. Simply bite your
tongue and take whatever happens with a
grain of salt, remembering and taking
comfort in the truth, even if youre the only
one who knows or believes it.
TAURUS (APRIL 20-MAY 20)
Let the punishment, if there is to be one,
fit the crime. Resist the temptation to
climb up on a righteous pedestal when
youre wronged, and spew forth your justi-
fied wrath. Its not like youve never
screwed up. Therefore, dont get carried
away trying to make someone pay for their
mistakes. In fact, your best bet might be to
surprise everyone by simply being gra-
cious, forgiving and just letting it go. The
nice thing about that is, it takes a whole lot
less effort and energy than seeking justice,
and despite depriving you of revenge or
validation, will ultimately yield better (in
terms of enjoyment and satisfaction) re-
sults than getting up on your soapbox ever
could.
GEMINI (MAY 21-JUNE 20)
While breaking up with someone on
Facebook may be bitchily satisfying and
incredibly entertaining for the spectators
involved, its also much crueler than a
private face-to-face chat would have been.
Your job as a human being is to first own
and be aware of your feelings and then
clearly share them with those they concern
in the least hurtful way possible. While my
Facebook example is rather more extreme
than what you were considering, my point
remains: You still havent hit on the kin-
dest way to communicate whats on your
mind. Dont use that as an excuse to pro-
crastinate, but do try to find a sweeter way.
CANCER (JUNE 21-JULY 22)
While its certainly nice, noble and even
occasionally brave to explain your reasons
for doing or feeling something, its not
always necessary. Sometimes all anyone
needs to know is what your decision is, not
the logic or emotions behind it. In this case
its simpler to stick to the facts, avoiding
details. Nothing good or useful will come
of a lengthier explanation. Just tell those
who need to know what youve decided
and then politely but firmly change the
subject. If they cant let it go, leave. They
can go on demanding clarification and
answers from the walls if they want.
LEO (JULY 23-AUG. 22)
Things take as long as they take, and
they simply cant be rushed. Even though
we rationally know this, its not as easy to
accept and move past the emotions that
come along with. However, thats this
weeks challenge: Being patient despite
your impatience. Indulging your desire to
hurry will not only not move you faster
down the path you wish to go, it may iron-
ically cause greater delays, and undo some
of the good work youve already done. So
take a deep breath, do the stuff you need to
be doing, and wait it out.
VIRGO (AUG. 23-SEPT. 22)
There are many cool things I wish I had
time to pursue. But I know I wouldnt
enjoy them unless I could devote enough
time and energy to do them justice. Its
frustrating and annoying to do stuff when
you cant give it your all something that
happens when you spread yourself too
thin, as you have lately. Taking more on
may seem like a terrible idea, but that all
depends on what it is you take on and
what you let go of. If you feel called to add
something new to your life, go for it but
make sure you let go of at least three of the
balls youre already juggling, so you can
give this one the attention it deserves. W

sorry mom&dad
By Justin Brown
Weekender Correspondent
D
eleting someone on
Facebook is the social
media equivalent of
spitting on someones face.
With that said, I was just spit
in the face by my friends
mom.
It all started when I was
testing an iPad at Best Buy.
While checking my Facebook
on the portable device, I de-
cided to write on my friend
Gaylord Fockers wall about
how excited I was for our
upcoming weekend trip to
New York. OK, his name
isnt really Gaylord Focker,
but hes a male nurse, and
surprise, surprise, there really
isnt another well-known
name that can be associated
with male nurses. That silly
Focker and I fully intended to
rock the Big Apple like a
slurricane (a drunken ram-
page that would leave damage
similar to a hurricane). How-
ever, the damage that was
about to take place was due
to a Facebook foul rather
than a handle of cheap vodka.
Just as I was writing on the
Fockers wall, the iPad froze!
My impatience led me to tap
uncontrollably on the screen.
When it finally unfroze, ev-
erything I hit while tapping
went into effect, causing me
to accidentally un-friend and
Poke him in a matter of sec-
onds.
He was an understanding
Focker when I messaged him
what happened and accepted
my new friend request.
I thought it would be ran-
dom and funny if, immediate-
ly after he accepted my friend
request, he got a new friend
request sent to his phone. So
I kept deleting and adding
him, assuming the Focker
would know I was only f--
king around.
Instead, the uptight Focker
stopped talking to me. Weeks
passed, and the crazy Focker
wouldnt return my calls,
texts or Facebook messages.
Figuring he was joking back
by pretending to be mad over
something so trivial, I told
him that until he started talk-
ing to me again, I would text
him a picture of Angela
Lansbury, the star of Mur-
der, She Wrote, every hour,
on the hour. After hours of
Angela Lansbury pictures, he
still wouldnt budge. When
the date for our New York
trip arrived, the Focker didnt
show up.
After a week of letting him
cool down and not harassing
him with pictures of Lans-
bury, I noticed he blocked me
on Facebook. What was
worse is that his mom
blocked me, too. What a
mother Focker! From now on,
even as a joke, Ill never
delete someone on Facebook
nor will I ever be invited
for dinner with the Fockers!
W
Mom-blocked
on Facebook
Justin learned never to delete someone on Facebook
without being prepared for the consequences.
