The beach, baby!
Beach. Beach.
Beach, when convenient. Pool.
Denitely the beach.
Pool. Saltwater and sand? No
thanks.
Have to go with the ocean. Love
the pool, but you can only ride
the waves in the mighty sea.
Beach!
Do you prefer the beach
or a pool?

For those who
may not know, I
graduated from
Crestwood High
School in June. As
any graduation is, it
was a bittersweet
experience. It was
sad at times know-
ing that a chapter
has ended, but for
the most part, I am
beyond excited to
move on and start
college. To be com-
pletely honest, I
never thought I would be the
type of person to go to re-
unions or catch up with most
of the people I walked with
unless I ran into them on the
street until this past week.
My entire school alumni
and currently enrolled students
all came together for one
extreme reason: 16-year-old
Brian Madry from Crestwood
was killed in a car accident
last week.
Brian was just about to start
his senior year. I didnt know
the kid very well, and I dont
think I ever spoke to him. His
older brother, Mike, was in my
class, and again, I only knew
him to see him.
It scared the hell out of
most people and put life in
perspective. Rumors floated
around about what happened,
tempers rose and rightfully
so. But everyone still put other
grudges aside and came to-
gether as one.
It was a school that I per-
sonally thought was broken
and filled with way too many
cliques. A school I couldnt
wait to leave behind was clos-
er than ever. I witnessed kids
who were fighting for years
that havent spoke to each
other since freshman year cry
together, among many other
mended relationships.
I dont speak my mind of-
ten. I am a firm believer in
some things are better left
unsaid, but I think as Brian
looks down, hes smiling that
the last thing he was able to
do on Earth was bring every-
one together and realize that
we shouldnt have taken our
last years together for granted.
Rest easy, B-mad.

W
ith the release of its
newest album, World
Gone Crazy, the Doo-
bie Brothers have not only been
embraced by the country music
community the title track has
been getting airplay on country
radio, and the band appeared on
an episode of CMTs Cross-
roads with Luke Bryan but
has also been touted as creating a
record thats reminiscent of its
original roots.
While all of this is true, thats
not how the band approached the
production process for its 13th
studio album.
Doobie Brothers guitarist and
multi-talented instrumentalist
John McFee checked in with the
Weekender a few weeks ago
from his home near Santa Barba-
ra, Calif., during a break on tour,
which will hit Mohegan Sun at
Pocono Downs Sunday, July 31.
He explained that this time
around, as has always been the
case, the band just focused on
making the best album it could
without worrying about labels
and outcomes.
There was no conscious effort
to say, Hey, lets lean more coun-
try, or lets go after that type of
sound, or try to get some atten-
tion there or anything like that,
McFee explained. Its just the
way it organically grew.
And the band took its time
recording its first studio album in
over a decade with producer Ted
Templeman, who, according to
McFee, has produced some of the
bands best records.
Ted asked me to contribute
material, and I said Id rather just
sit this one out, as far as song-
writing, McFee explained. And
thats what I did. I just wanted to
be a team player and try to make
my contributions in a little bit
different way this time.
It seems to have worked pret-
ty well, because the response that
were getting from people is it
sounds like a classic Doobie
Brothers album that would fit
right in with some of the stron-
gest records the bands ever
made.
In the same way that the band
wasnt aiming for country super
stardom, it wasnt trying to recre-
ate the old Doobie Brothers
sound. Instead, the members
wanted to lean on the original
foundation that carved a place for
the band in the American rock
n roll genre in the first place:
The writing duo of Patrick Sim-
mons and Tom Johnston.
From the start in 1970, the
Doobie Brothers has been a fount
of different musical backgrounds
and talents. Though the lineup
has undergone some changes
over the years, the attitude and
overall feel of its sound has been
one of unyielding diversity.
My feeling has always been,
even before I joined the band, (it)
was open to including and not
just open to it but really em-
braced various musical styles,
and not limiting itself to just one
type of sound, said McFee, who
has been in the Doobie Brothers
for 32 years. And I think thats
one of the strengths of the band.
For me, personally, its great
because it allows me a lot of
freedom to stretch out on differ-
ent instruments and in different
styles.
Those different styles get the
most exposure on the road, where
McFee noted that the band has
always been comfortable.
Our favorite thing, probably,
is to play with an audience. And
(this is a) band that evolved play-
ing in the clubs, and were pretty
old-school as far as our back-
ground, musically. Of a different
era, I guess, in a way. W

The Doobie Brothers recently released World Gone
Crazy and will perform at Mohegan Sun at Pocono
Downs.
The response that were getting from
people is (World Gone Crazy) sounds
like a classic Doobie Brothers album that
would fit right in with some of the
strongest records the bands ever made.

Weekender General Manager
PHOTOS BY STEVE HUSTED
SHOT ON LOCATION AT NAY AUG PARK, SCRANTON
T
his valley was due for
a little heat. And thats
just what we brought
to Nay Aug Park in Scranton
with scantily dressed guys and
girls. Funny, the people strolling
through the park didnt seem to
mind. Did we get a few stares?
You could say that. Did a few
people stop to ask where the
photos we shot could be seen?
You better believe it. Did all of
them say they would pick up
the Weekender to check out
the 2011 Swimsuit Issue? Um,
thats a given.
After leafng through many
swimsuit photo submissions as
well as hunting down a few of
our own models (since we have
a keen eye for hot bods and
all), the Weekender organized
a four-day photo shoot in the
park, capturing the models
as well as the parks appeal.
Hiking all over the gigantic
park to get just the right shots,
the Weekenders swimsuit
photographer, Steve Husted, set
out to pick the best backdrops
for each model.
So fip through the pages
to see Nay Aug Parks natural
beauty. Flip through the
pages to see the fantastic
photography. Or fip through
the pages simply to see some
hot ladies and guys in their
swimwear. Regardless of your
rationale, one thing is for sure:
Youre defnitely not stopping
here. Happy page turning. W

news of the weird
By Chuck Shepherd
Weekender Wire Services
ITS A ??
In January, a baby was born to
Canadians Kathy Witterick and
David Stocker, but seven months
later, they still have not revealed
to family or friends whether little
Storm is a boy or a girl. The
couple are intending to raise
Storm free of gender-specific
cultural stereotypes (i.e., such
things as domesticity, aggressive-
ness, preferences for arts or
mathematics) because society
tends to overvalue boy norms.
On a larger scale, in Stockholm,
according to a June Associated
Press dispatch, the 33 Swedish
preschoolers at the Egalia school
socialize in daily environments
scrubbed of all gender refer-
ences. For example, boys and
girls alike play with kitchen toys
and building materials, and when
playing family, parental roles
are interchangeable. Critics say
the children will be left unpre-
pared for the real world.
THE ENTREPRENEURIAL
SPIRIT!
-- New, on the News of the
Weird Food Cart: (1) grasshopper
tacos (at San Franciscos La
Oaxaquena Bakery, but pulled in
June by local health authorities,
who were concerned that the
bakery was importing Mexican
insects rather than using Amer-
ican ones); (2) cicada ice cream
(at Sparkys Homemade in Co-
lumbia, Mo., but also yanked off
sale by local health authorities in
June); (3) maggot-melt sand-
wiches (which are just what you
suspect cheese and dead mag-
gots at the California State
Fair in July).
-- In June, scientists at Chinas
Agricultural University in Beij-
ing announced that they had
produced human breast milk
from genetically modified dairy
cows and expect supplies to be
available in supermarkets within
three years. Employing tech-
nology once used to produce the
sheep Dolly, researchers cre-
ated a herd of 300 modified
cows, which yielded milk that
was reported as sweeter and
stronger than typical cow milk.
CIVILIZATION IN DECLINE
-- Growing Up Early: (1) A
loaded handgun fell from the
pocket of a kindergarten student
in Houston in April, firing a
single bullet that slightly wound-
ed two classmates and the shoo-
ter. (2) Prosecutors in Grant
County, Wis., filed first-degree
sexual assault charges recently
against a 6-year-old boy, stem-
ming from a game of doctor
that authorities say he pressured a
5-year-old girl into in 2010. (3)
Lakewood, Colo., police, at-
tempting to wrest control of a
sharpened stick that a second-
grade boy was using to threaten
classmates and a teacher, gave
him two shots of pepper spray.
(The boy had just finished shout-
ing to police, Get away from me
you f--kers.)
-- Tippecanoe County (Ind.)
judge Loretta Rush, interviewed
by the Journal & Courier of
Lafayette, Ind., in June, under-
scored parental drug use as a
major risk factor in a childs
drifting into substance abuse. I
had a case where a child was
born with drugs in his system,
recalled Rush. Both parents
were using. We were looking for
(placing the child in any relatives
home), but both sets of grandpar-
ents were using. So (the) great-
grandmothers in the courtroom,
and I had asked her if she would
pass a drug screen, and she said
she would not ....
PEOPLE DIFFERENT
FROMUS
-- Self-described Las Vegas
performer Staysha Randall
took 3,200 different piercings in
her body during the same sitting
on June 7 to break the Guinness
world record by 100 prickings.
(Veteran Las Vegas piercer Bill
Danger Robinson did the hon-
ors.) Coincidentally, on the very
same day in Edinburgh, Scotland,
the woman with the most lifetime
piercings (6,925) got married.
Elaine Davidson, 46, wore a full
white ensemble that left bare
only her face, which was deco-
rated green and sported 192
piercings. The lucky guy is Da-
vidsons longtime friend Douglas
Watson, a balding, 60-something
man with no piercings or tattoos.
ARMED AND CLUMSY
(ALL-NEW!)
People Who Accidentally Shot
Themselves Recently: Sean Mur-
phy, 38, destroyed most of his
finger trying to shoot off a wart
(South Yorkshire, England, June).
A Secret Service agent (assigned
to Nancy Reagan) shot himself in
the hip holstering his gun (Ventu-
ra, Calif., February). A17-year-
old boy, playing with a gun in
bed, shot himself in the testicles
(Orlando, February). A training
officer at the Ohio Peace Officer
Academy shot himself in the
thigh (December). Sheriff Lorin
Nielson of Bannock County,
Idaho, shot himself in the hand
(December). Johnathan Hartman,
27, holstering his gun in his back
pocket (after threatening his
girlfriend), shot himself in the
butt (Billings, Mont., December).
A man trying to scratch his nose
with a pellet gun shot himself in
the face (Amherst, Mass., No-
vember).
UNDIGNIFIED DEATHS
(1) A 24-year-old man, riding a
party bus for a friends bachelor
night in Detroit in June, was
killed on Interstate 94 when he
popped open an emergency es-
cape hatch on the buss roof and
peered out at the sights. His head
slammed into an overpass. (2) A
59-year-old woman, who had
borrowed a steam roller to help
with maintenance on a road near
her home in Whatcom County,
Wash., in June, lost control of the
vehicle, sending it into a ditch,
where she was thrown and fatally
rolled upon.

Who Knew? The streets of 47th Street are
literally paved with gold, said one of New
York Citys gold wranglers, as he, down on all
fours and manipulating tweezers, picked
specks of gold, silver and jewels that had fallen
off of clothing and jewelry racks as they were
rolled from trucks into stores. The man told
the New York Post in June that he had recent-
ly earned $819 in redemptions for six days
prospecting.

e tend to keep things
lots and lots of
things. Secret pack
rat tendencies protecting
collections of time-lost trea-
sures. Oddities found hidden
in dark, dusty corners of our
homes. Thoughts of I for-
got I had this and What
on earth was I thinking? as
discoveries are made. But
are these mementos from
our lives or lives of those
long gone worth anything?
Are our treasures ready for
the trash can instead of the
shelf on our wall?
On Saturday, July 30,
these questions can be an-
swered as the guys from the
History Channels reality
show Pawn Stars set up
shop at Mount Airy Casino
as part of this years Gold
& Silver Road Show. Father
and son team Richard and
Rick Harrison, as well as
Austin Chumlee Russell,
will be available to appraise,
purchase or tell stories about
various items brought to the
show, as well as chat with
visitors and sign autographs.
Rick Harrison, co-owner
of the Gold & Silver Pawn
Shop in Las Vegas, said he
is looking forward to the
road show as it is a lot of
fun.
We cruise all around the
country, he said. Weve
been everywhere from New
York to Biloxi, Miss., and
everywhere in between.
Harrison said he moved to
Las Vegas with his father in
1981, where they first
opened up as a second-hand
shop, and eventually ob-
tained their pawn license in
1988. The pawn shop, which
has undergone numerous
expansions over the years,
now runs 24 hours a day
and employs nearly 70 peo-
ple. After four years of
pitching the idea for a real-
ity show, Harrison said it
was finally picked up, and
Pawn Stars debuted on the
History Channel in 2009.
Currently filming the fifth
season, Harrison said he is
thrilled and a bit over-
whelmed at how popular the
show has become.
I like to say the reason
people watch the show is
because one week its
American Choppers, the
next week its Pimp My
Ride and the next its Mas-
terpiece Theater its real-
ly different every week, he
said. Everybody loves it. It
seems like every week, the
ratings still go up. Its defi-
nitely a little weird, I never
thought it would get this
big.
Harrison said the road
show, which is in its second
year and features seven stops
across the country, is a bit
of a mix between his show
and Antiques Roadshow,
mostly dealing with people
coming to have items ap-
praised and possibly bought
by the pawn shop. And
while many bring fairly nor-
mal items, he said it is hard
to tell what all will come
through the doors.
You never know whats
going to show up, Harrison
said. Theres always some-
thing different and weird.
Having dealt with every-
thing from Olympic medals
to what he described as a
scroll of 200-year-old Japa-
nese porn, Harrison encour-
ages people to bring out
whatever random items they
are looking to remove from
their collections.
Come out. All that old
jewelry or some of those
cool antiques, if youre look-
ing to sell it, Ill give you a
price. If you dont like the
price, dont sell it. But with
any luck I can tell you
something about it. W
Real, live 'Pawn'

T
he Pennsylvania Blues
Festival is back to
celebrate its 20th year
at a new location the
Blue Mountain Ski Area in
Palmerton. The Weekender
caught up with the festivals
founder and producer, Mi-
chael Cloeren, to learn about
whats different and whats
new.
According to Cloeren,
after 19 years at Big Boul-
der, Peak Resorts made a
decision late last year to
eliminate all summer and
fall events at its resorts,
including the long-running
blues festival and an arts
and crafts festival which
would have celebrated its
40th year at sister resort
Jack Frost Mountain.
Because of the festivals
past success, while searching
for a new location, Cloeren
was certain that he wanted
to keep it at a ski resort
within the same vicinity. He
wanted to keep it in a place
where the guests have been
used to going, and he is
sure theyll continue to en-
joy the new location as well.
Blue Mountain is the
perfect facility for a music
event, Cloeren says. Its
basically a natural amphithe-
atre. You have plenty of free
parking, and the mountain
goes up, so its acoustically
perfect. It has all the amen-
ities that Big Boulder has.
The festival features chair
lift rides, dozens of vendors
selling various foods and
wares and music on two
stages with national perform-
ing artists. In addition to its
closer proximity to cities
like Allentown, Bethlehem
and Philadelphia, Blue
Mountain also provides an-
other amenity for festiv-
algoers.
The other big thing that
this site has, that the other
site didnt, is on-site camp-
ing, Cloeren says. The
camping area is, literally,
about a hundred yards from
the main stage, so you can
actually see the stage from
most of the sites.
When it comes to blues
music, and what this festival
is really all about, Cloeren
says that this festival is
about the artists who live it,
breathe it, die it. Thats all
they do.
Some of the headlining
acts at the festival will in-
clude Shemekia Copeland,
Otis Clay, Little Ed and the
Blues Imperials, Cyril Ne-
ville and many more recog-
nizable names to the blues
community.
National artists from Chi-
cago to Texas to Louisiana
its the full spectrum of
the music, Cloeren says.
From acoustic to electric,
traditional to contemporary.
You dont have to be a blues
fan to have a good time; its
fun music and a mix of
everything. W

F
or most of their career, its
always been about the mem-
bers of Motley Crue; their
decadences, their near-deaths, their
dramas. But now, after 30 years as
one of the biggest bands around,
the Crue is making summer 2011
about the people whove stood by
themthrough it all: The fans.
Motley Crue singer Vince
Neil, guitarist Mick Mars, drum-
mer Tommy Lee and bassist Nikki
Sixx let the fans run the show
this year, picking everything from
openers Poison and NewYork
Dolls to the setlist, which includes
live rarities, like Too Young To
Fall In Love and a revamped
Smokin In The Boys Room.
We wanted to figure out howto
make this tour totally interactive,
Lee told the Weekender fromhis
tour bus as he traveled fromNew
Orleans to Biloxi, Miss., earlier
this month.
Lee explained that the band was
looking to give fans an experi-
ence, rather than just come to
another show on this tour, which
hits Toyota Pavilion at Montage
Mountain Sunday, July 31.
So we let thempick the bands,
then we let thempick out the setlist
of the songs theyd like us to play,
he added. And during the concert,
we let people text and send pic-
tures to each other, and then I grab
a fan out of the audience every
night and bring themup on the
drumroller coaster for a 360
(ride).
Lee, as infamous for his antics
as he is his drumkits that rotated
and traveled above the crowd on
past tours, unveiled his latest
monster this tour, the afore-
mentioned drumrollercoaster.
This is kind of a part of the
Frankenstein that Ive created, the
monsters alive again, he said.
The idea for his drumsetups
came fromwhen Lee was a con-
cert-going kid.
Watching the drummer do his
solo, I was watching everybody go
to the bathroom, go buy a T-shirt,
get a beer, and I was like, That
sucks! This guys kicking ass right
now, and no one cares! he said.
The young Lee vowed to keep
people entertained during his
solos.
I think this is definitely one of
my favorites so far because yes, its
totally insane, but also because
every night I get to grab a fan out
of the audience, he shared. And I
think I get more enjoyment out of
seeing their face flipping f--king
out than I do playing.
It hasnt been an easy three
decades for Motley Crue pro-
fessionally and personally. Both
Neil and Lee departed the band at
separate times, but eventually
returned; the original lineup has
nowbeen reunited for more than
five years.
You know, at that time in my
life, I needed a change desperate-
ly, Lee said of his timeout from
the Crue. Creatively I was freak-
ing out, I needed to go do some-
thing else. I left on good terms
with everybody, it was a mutual
kind of thing.
Like most musicians, Lee li-
kened the connection between his
bandmates to being in a relation-
ship.
Youve got to step out of it to
check it out, he said. And you
realize that theres really some-
thing very special that the four of
us and only the four of us
do. We have a real clear perspec-
tive on what it is that we do. You
come back to the circle when you
figure that out.
Motley Crue will come even
more full circle in August when
the foursome will be honored at
The 4th Annual Sunset Strip Mu-
sic Festival in Los Angeles.
This is going to be a trip be-
cause Ive heard that right where
the stage is is where we all lived
together. Well probably be able to
throwa rock at that shithole apart-
ment fromthe stage, Lee said,
laughing. I can just tell you that it
has potential to bring a fewtears to
the eyes because thats where it all
started.
To finish the tour there is pretty
f--king epic, if you ask me. W

Fromhis breakthrough 2007
albumSome Mad Hope, singer/
songwriter Matt Nathanson deliv-
ered infectious tunes like Car
Crash and Come On Get High-
er. On his eighth recording,
Modern Love, Nathanson tries
to do the same thing and nearly
makes it.
Lead track Faster has lilting
guitar, fun horn bleats and almost
too saccharine-sweet lyrics (you
taste like sunlight and strawberry
bubblegum). The title track
sounds a little dated musically, but
its great horns and easy, conversa-
tional lyrics keep it fresh. Love
Comes Tumbling Down is heart-
felt and slower than the previous
two songs. Ill dance you round
through the bones of this town,
Nathanson promises.
Room@The End Of The
World features pretty piano and a
frenetic pace that works with the
worlds-end theme. Follower
Kiss Quick is the polar oppo-
site, with slow-plucked guitars
and Nathansons soft singing.
Standout Mercy starts with
great guitar and handclaps and has
a catchy chorus. His voice takes
on a somewhat punky intonation
to deliver lines like This gardens
full of snakes and fruit.
The searing Kept has a great
murky beat, while Run, which
features Sugarlands Jennifer
Nettles and Kristian Bush, takes a
very sexy turn. The duo also co-
wrote the song, and Nettles voice
pairs well with Nathansons, mak-
ing Run another standout.
While the drums on Queen of
(K)nots sounds a bit like a fill
circa the 80s, the song about a
woman whose hearts a jungle, a
bar fight is fun, with throaty
piano and a crunchy beat. Mod-
ern Love comes to a light and
airy end with Drop To Hold You
and BottomOf The Sea.
Nathanson, a VH1You Oughta
Know artist whose work has
appeared on NCIS, Scrubs,
and The Vampire Diaries, still
provides great guitar work and
poetic and intimate lyrics. And
while this outing is a good listen,
it lacks the oomph of Some Mad
Hope and makes you want to
revisit that album.

Top 10 Local Albums at Gallery of Sound
Listening to an artist who is willing to
abandon heavy studio production and
sound and make rock n roll that has
been stripped down to its most basic
elements is always refreshing. July A.D.
does just that on its latest album, a self-
titled effort that, at times, sounds like The
Beatles, The Ramones or any one of a
number of bands that the Brooklyn duo
cites as a major influence on its music.
The album opens up with You Say
Goodbye, with a sound that is right out
of the 1960s, followed by the punk-rock-
ish Tanya. The remainder of the album
follows a similar pattern, with each song
sounding like it belongs in a different era.
You Got A Strange Way and Her Next
Sin could be 1980s pop-rock radio hits;
Rave You Down might have been
penned by Bob Dylan or the Beatles, and
the rambling beat of I Hope And Pray is
a distant cousin of These Boots Are
Made For Walkin. Despite the wide
variety of sounds and influences on this
album, however, July A.D. manages to
keep some continuity and thread it all
together.
In the end, July A.D. sounds best on the
tracks where its tapped into the roots of
rock music and just wails away; slower
ballads like You Put Me Out Of Time
and December just dont have the same
appeal. While the bands name may never
appear on the marquee of your favorite
local venue, this album is a great remind-
er of what great rock music is all about: A
good beat, a few chords, a little attitude
and the volume turned up all of the way.

Beat, chords
and attitude
The pre-release chatter on Queens-
ryches Dedicated To Chaos lit up hard-
rock and metal message boards with
not-so-flattering backlash. The bands
12th studio release finds it further explor-
ing territory it first wandered into with
1994s Promised Land. That territory
has taken it further and further away from
the melodic, prog-based metal Queens-
ryche honed to near perfection on classics
like Operation: Mindcrime and Em-
pire.
The albums opener and lead single,
Get Started, is a rocker, albeit not the
screaming double-guitar attack of yore.
The album soon trends toward hip-sound-
ing, pop-leaning fare, example: The slin-
ky groove of Around The World, which
finds vocalist Geoff Tate seductively
mouthing, Youve got your sunglasses
on over and over in a visual straight out
of Entourage. Hot Spot Junkie contin-
ues the slice-of-modern-life lyrical foray,
with Tate waxing about YouTube images.
Several tracks are also laced with his
newfound not-very-metal saxophone
prowess.
You can find the soul of the old
Queensryche on I Take You, with its
chugging riffs and dark, phaser-drenched
lead-guitar runs. Higher is also heavier,
with the bands signature, Tate-led harmo-
ny vocals interspersed with the afore-
mentioned sax runs, which are actually
used tastefully and effectively within the
track.
This record is not Queensryche doing a
complete 360 on its fans. This is a band (a
progressive band, mind you) simply reac-
hing into its bag of musical possibilities
and pulling out its most diverse array of
tricks yet.
Dedicated to Chaos is akin to what
bands like U2 have been allowed to do for
years: Evolve and spread their genre-
bending wings into sometimes fan-frown-
ing heights. You may need to open your
mind a bit more to digest this one, but its
worth it.

T
he brown barn caf is
a comfortable, relaxed
atmosphere where people
can come for an informal yet
elegant dining experience.
We offer a three course, prix
xe dinner menu, including
beverage, for $25 which changes
weekly, along with an eclectic
array of menu items featuring
cuisines from around the world.
We are also committed to
providing vegetarian and vegan
friendly selections for every
course.
Recent vegetarian dinner
selections have included stuffed
poblano peppers a blend
of Arborio rice, marinated
tofu crumbles, locally grown
tomatoes and fresh cilantro
stuffed into ripe peppers and
roasted to perfection, then
topped with tomatillo salsa and
vegan sour cream. We have
offered a caramelized leek and
shallot pizza, topped with fresh
tomatoes, olive oil, basil and
parsley, and an Indian Aloo
Gobi cauliower and potatoes
mixed with cumin, ginger, garlic
and peppers and served over
basmati rice.
Our philosophy when
approaching vegetarian and
vegan dishes is to focus on
the richness and variety of
vegetables, fruits and grains
and bring out their natural
goodness and avor. Although
we do like to use tofu, and nd
that it brings its own interesting
avors and textures to the
party, one wont nd textured
vegetable protein pretending
to be chicken or pork or beef
in any of our dishes. All of our
vegan and vegetarian selections
unabashedly say were made
entirely from vegetables and
were delicious!
For our carnivorous friends
we have had smoked pork
tenderloin with a cherry cilantro
salsa, braised Moroccan chicken
with preserved lemons and
olives, sausage lasagna with a
homemade tomato gravy and a
spicy Thai green curry among
other savory selections. Many of
our meaty selections feature cuts
from Trovatos meat market in
Clarks Summit.
Our desserts also change
frequently and include rich
chocolate cakes, fresh berry
tarts, brownies, cheesecakes and
other confections by the bakers
at Ah! Some Chocolates. We
also feature ice cream from the
Back Mountain Creamery in
Trucksville in our desserts. Our
signature vegan dessert is a fresh
fruit compote topped with Grand
Marnier caramel syrup, mint and
candied orange peel.

Music on the menu
By Alan K. Stout
Weekender Music Columnist
M
TV will turn 30 years old
on Sunday, Aug. 1. And,
given that there is very
little music featured on the sta-
tion today nor has there been
for many years it would seem
almost foolish for what was once
known as Music Television to
even recognize its own milestone.
And maybe it wont. While
watching some VH1 Classic over
the weekend, I noticed it was that
station not MTV which was
preparing to note MTVs big 3-0
in a grand way. And though that
might seem odd, it actually
makes more sense. At least VH1
Classic is still primarily focused
on music.
If there is anyone that can
properly reflect on the enormous
pop cultural impact of the golden
era of MTV, I suppose it is peo-
ple my age. MTV debuted in the
summer of 1981, the same year
that I entered high school. And
MTV began to stray away from
full music programming around
1989, the year I graduated from
college. And thus for all of those
years, from when I was 13 to 21,
whenever you put on MTV, you
usually got music. Much of it
was very good. And you were
constantly being exposed to new
sounds.
I can still recall August of 81
and how quickly the station be-
came a buzz amongst my friends.
For some reason, Fleetwood
Macs Hold Me sticks out as
one of the first videos I ever saw.
And it was actually Pete Towns-
hends video for Face Dances,
Pt. 2 which first inspired me to
become a fan of The Who. In
1982, I saw the band for the first
time. It was my first rock con-
cert. There were more than
100,000 people there. And it
absolutely changed my life.
Thank you, MTV.
There was much to like about
the early days of MTV. Even the
promos, which featured the days
biggest stars encouraging viewers
to call their cable company and
demand, I want my MTV! were
fun. And so was the music. Ma-
donna, Prince, U2, John Cougar,
Judas Priest, Motley Crue ... I
saw all of them for the first time
on MTV. Artists that arrived on
the musical scene in the 60s and
70s also came to embrace the
network. MTV helped break
bands , helped fuel comebacks
and helped move forward the
careers of bands such as The
Police and Van Halen. And Mi-
chael Jackson? As great as it
was, Thriller does not sell
some 40 million copies without
MTV. There was MTV Music
News twice an hour, a live con-
cert on Saturday night and the
rest of the time it was all music
videos, 24/7.
It was fantastic.
When did it begin to change?
And why? According to Scranton
native Tom McGrath, who wrote
MTV: The Making of a Revolu-
tion, it was only a few years into
the stations existence when
programmers first began tweak-
ing its format. I interviewed
McGrath in 1996 when his book
was published, and I recall him
explaining how the exact same
thing that made kids love MTV
in the 80s was the same thing
that made advertisers hate it:
Channel-surfing.
In the early days of MTV, if
you didnt like a video, so what?
You changed the channel for
three minutes and came back.
Sometimes, youd watch two or
three videos in a row. Sometimes
not. But you were always switch-
ing channels. In 1987, MTV
found a solution. It premiered its
own game show, Remote Con-
trol. Viewers liked it. And for
the first time, they were staying
with MTV for a full 30 minutes.
Over time, more and more shows
were added such as Beavis and
Butt-head and The Real
World. Eventually, the only
thing missing on Music Televi-
sion was music.
Today, of course, its even
worse. Honestly, I dont know
how MTV can still hold its an-
nual Video Music Awards
when it doesnt seem to play any
music videos at all. But again,
thats nothing new. Its been that
way for a long time. The last
time the network did something
interesting with music was when
it launched its Unplugged
series. And that was about 20
years ago.
Still, through this column, Ill
send a note of congratulations
out to MTV this anniversary
weekend. It changed my life for
the better, and for a generation, it
was a fun and important part of
our youth. We did want our MTV.
We wanted Music Television.
And during the most formative
years of our lives, we had it.
Happy birthday. W

Paula M. Triano
Hazleton
I
n May 2005, Paula was chosen by the Board
of Directors of the Domestic Violence
Service Center to be its executive director for
Luzerne and Carbon counties. The center was
founded in 1976 with the mission of working
toward the elimination of domestic violence. This
year, DVSC celebrates 35 years of service.
Aveteran administrator, Paula brought more
than 20 years experience in the eld of non-prot
organizations. Prior to DVSC, Paula served as
Director of Education for Greater Hazleton Health
Alliance, a two-hospital healthcare system. In

as administrator to Conyngham Valley SurgiCenter.
Hobbies: Working out/weight lifting, target
shooting, spending time with my nieces and
nephews (12 of them!), driving my little red
convertible, baking, watching mindless Lifetime TV
and Food Network.
Favorite quote: I just love Lou Holtz, many
of his are so real to my life experiences. One of my
favorites is No one has ever drowned in sweat.
But my all-time favorite would have to be
Elizabeth Taylor: I fell off my pink cloud with a
thud oh so true!
Favorite thing about the area: Incredible
ethnic foods and restaurants.
Favorite movie: The Godfather, what else!
One thing most people dont know about
me: Probably my quick wit and sense of humor.
One thing Ive always wanted to do: Own a
Harley and ride
If your best friend were to describe you,
what would he/she say? Some actual words
from a girlfriend: her demeanor and attitude
always convey a reassuring calm that helps identify
order in a chaotic, crisis driven eld. Paula radiates
an elegance, style, strength and humor that make it a
delight to spend time with her!
Community involvement: Currently serve
on the American Heart Association Northeast Pa.
Board of Directors and Heart Ball Committees.
Through involvement with the Domestic Violence
Service Center, I serve on the Membership of
the Pa. Coalition Against Domestic Violence and
various county task forces and advisory boards and

omestic violence is a
concept that the luck-
iest of us can only
imagine, thanks to dramas
like Law & Order: SVU
and the movie Enough.
But for the women who are
affected by it, its not a fic-
tional realm that can be
easily escaped, but rather a
paralyzing reality that threat-
ens their lives and the lives
of the people they love. For
those women, the Domestic
Violence Service Center
(DVSC) is the light at the
end of the tunnel, offering
respite from abuse, lone-
liness and fear.
The shelter saved me and
my childrens lives, and it
gave us a safe haven, said
a survivor of domestic vio-
lence and former client of
DVSC who wishes to remain
anonymous. (I had) a lot of
support from the staff, who
gave me a lot of the
strength that I have today. It
did save my life in many
ways.
To continue providing that
assistance to others, and to
raise awareness about the
issue of domestic violence
and the center itself, the
DVSC, a United Way mem-
ber agency, and the Week-
ender are teaming up to host
the sixth annual Women
Who Rock event Thursday,
July 28 at 5:30 p.m. at the
River Street Jazz Cafe in
Plains Twp.
Last year, the DVSC pro-
vided services to more than
2,000 victims of domestic
violence and emergency
shelter to 244 women and
children in Luzerne and Car-
bon counties. Although sup-
portive and direct services,
like 24-hour hotlines, an
emergency shelter for women
and children and a transi-
tional housing program, have
been offered by the DVSC
for 35 years, Development
Director Nina Dei Tos point-
ed out that the need for
community outreach is still
high.
Youd be surprised how
many people have never
heard of us, she explained.
So, as much as we do a
tremendous amount of com-
munity outreach and try to
get our name out there,
events such as Women Who
Rock just let the community,
again, know that were here
and what services we pro-
vide.
And an event like this
sends the message that wom-
en can be strong and power-
ful, no matter what theyre
up against. All of the per-
formers are positive exam-
ples for clients of DVSC
and for the community, and
that list includes Kira Lee
Krakovesky, Maria DuBiel,
Shannon Marsyada, k8,
Y.M.I., The Jeanne Zano
Band, Phyllis Hopkins Band,
Kriki and Ashes for Trees.
Our mission is to work
toward the elimination of
domestic violence our
goal is to provide options
and resources to empower
women to achieve a vio-
lence-free and self-sufficient
life, Dei Tos said.
Getting out of an abusive
environment is only the first
step to success, and thats
why the DVSC offers a
number of programs to help
clients maintain self-suffi-
ciency after they leave the
shelter or the transitional
housing, including See
Yourself Succeed, which
assists clients in removing
barriers to success through
intensive case management,
support and counseling, Dei
Tos said.
Naturally, programs like
that cost money. The major-
ity of the funding for the
DVSC is provided by feder-
al, state and local sources,
including local branches of
the United Way. All of the
proceeds from Women Who
Rock will go toward the
centers efforts to provide a
safe haven for the abused
and eliminate domestic vio-
lence.
Almost every day is a
success story because all the
women here in the shelter
and the bridge housing pro-
gram are out of their unsafe
and violent environments,
said Dei Tos. So in es-
sence, every woman and
every day is its own success
story. W

movie review

Captain America: The First


Avenger is the kind of
big, flashy movie Holly-
wood is known for, which is
why so many people will flock
to it. And why so many people
will hate it.
Its the height of World War
II and Brooklyns own Steve
Rogers (Chris Evans) wants
nothing more to than to fight
for his country. Puny and
armed with an array of medical
conditions that practically re-
quires a live-in physician, Rog-
ers who tries different
recruitment offices and differ-
ent aliases cant make the
cut. Im saving your life,
Rogers is told by a doctor after
another rejection.
The despair grows when
Rogerss best friend, Bucky
(Sebastian Stan), heeds the call
to duty, prompting a visit to
one more recruitment office.
This time, though, Steve finds
support. Overhearing the plucky
runts plight, the brilliant Dr.
Erskine (Stanley Tucci), whos
working with the military, puts
Rogers in the army. Sort of.
Erskine believes Steves deter-
mination and kind heart make
him the ideal candidate for his
project to create a genetically
advanced breed of super sol-
diers.
Rogers proves his mettle at
boot camp, where he meets the
feisty and gorgeous Peggy Car-
ter (Hayley Atwell, providing
some much-needed adult heat)
and the unimpressed Col. Phil-
lips (Tommy Lee Jones). After
undergoing the hunky trans-
formation into Captain America
and enduring a few detours, the
lab-created hero must stop the
deranged, facially challenged
Red Skull (Hugo Weaving)
from wiping out mankind.
Of course, Captain Amer-
ica, which sets the table for
next summers The Avengers,
offers the usual big-budget,
high-concept goodies. Whats
so aggravating is that director
Joe Johnston (The Wolfman)
shows no desire to do better.
The movie entertains us out of
sheer obligation, knocking off
items from the blockbuster
checklist with cold efficiency.
Hunky leading man? Check.
Snappy one-liners? Check.
Gruff, initially doubting superi-
or who comes to trust our
hero? Check. The best block-
busters offer more. Christopher
Nolans The Dark Knight
presented a version of The
Joker that was so unhinged that
the movie rattled your soul.
Iron Man featured Robert
Downey Jr.s aloof cheekiness.
J.J. Abrams resurrected Star
Trek by doing things his own
way with a low-profile cast.
As anyone who endured the
sluggish Wolfman can attest,
Johnston isnt a guy who rat-
tles cages. Hes a blandly com-
petent filmmaker. That ade-
quacy spreads throughout Cap-
tain America like the flu
through an elementary school.
There are no memorable lines,
no action scenes youll excited-
ly describe to your friends. For
a movie that fashions itself a
gee-whiz spectacle, Captain
America is annoyingly ho-
hum, beginning with a one-note
title character rendered flavor-
less by the script. We dont see
Steve coming to terms with his
new powers or his piping-hot
sex appeal. Casting Evans,
essentially a slab of beef with
eyebrows, in the lead assures
us that we never have to read
between the lines.
Captain America is ser-
viceable. Thats fine for Sat-
urday matinees with the kids,
but not event movies. After all,
isnt the point to make things
bigger and better and bolder?
Captain America is a mildly
entertaining waste of money. It
doesnt go big. You should stay
home.

SCRANTON When ven-
dors at a concert start handing
out free ice cubes with the pur-
chase of a Powerade, its a sure
sign that the weather is pretty
brutal. But theres something
about joint discomfort that really
brings a crowd together well,
joint discomfort and country
music. And when Brad Paisley
brought his H2O II: Wetter &
Wilder World Tour to the Toyota
Pavilion at Montage Mountain
Friday, July 22, the only things
more unbelievable than the swel-
tering conditions were his guitar
skills and ability to pump up
people in a crowd on the verge of
heat stroke.
Paisley started the show by
fooling the audience into think-
ing he was onstage by using a
holographic image, and then
popped up in the crowd with a
peppy performance of Mud On
The Tires. Decked out in a T-
shirt flaunting the phrase Thats
what she said, the country star
launched into the hits Welcome
to the Future, Ticks and
Working On A Tan before
greeting the audience with,
What a night for a concert
were not afraid of a little heat!
The sentimental Shes Every-
thing was followed by a video
intro starring Jimmy Kimmel and
a puppet version of Paisley with
a giant head, the perfect segue for
Celebrity. Opening act Blake
Shelton, at whom Paisley play-
fully poked fun all evening,
joined him onstage for Dont
Drink the Water.
Im Still a Guy began with a
pleasantly surprising blues riff,
and the songs Waitin On A
Woman and When I Get
Where Im Going were heartfelt
tributes to both Andy Griffith
(who starred in the video for the
former) and a number of de-
ceased celebrities and those who
were lost on 9/11.
Paisley showed off his unparal-
leled guitar maneuvers on The
World before walking through
the crowd to a stage in the back
of the seating area to perform
acoustic versions of Letter to
Me, Little Moments and
Anything Like Me.
A video in the style of tradi-
tional western movies starring
Paisley and his band was shown,
with them playing the soundtrack
music, before launching into an
edgy version of Johnny Cashs
Folsom Prison Blues.
Paisley ended the evening with
an encore, performing Alcohol
while his opening acts grabbed
drinks from a makeshift bar on
stage. The fact that he used a
Miller Lite bottle as a slide on his
guitar perfectly summed up just
how phenomenal and fun Paisley
is as a live performer.
Opening acts Jerrod Niemann
and Blake Shelton held their own
against such a solid main act,
performing with such ferocity
and energy that it would not be
surprising to see either one head-
lining a tour in the near future. W

t 16, Stephanie Ogozaly
went to her first punk-
rock show at the late
Cafe Metropolis, a recently
closed-down all-ages venue in
Wilkes-Barre. After she was
invited by friends and attend-
ed the show on a whim, un-
sure of who the bands were or
what she was getting herself
into, Ogozaly left the venue
later that night with newfound
interest toward the balls-to-
the-wall genre.
Somebody got punched in
the face, Ogozaly said,
laughing as she recalled her
first concert. And these girls
were fighting, but you know, I
really liked it. I just kept go-
ing to (Cafe Metropolis), and
that was my outlet.
As a music director at
WFTE-FM 90.3/105.7, Ogoza-
ly has helped the radio station
organize several events, and
jumped at the opportunity to
set up her own public attrac-
tion. Drawing out her interest
in punk-rock music and in-
spired by the popular punk-
rock flea market in Philadel-
phia and other similar events
across the country, she decid-
ed to introduce the idea to the
Scranton area.
The Scranton Punk-Rock
Flea Market, which will be
held July 30 at 10 a.m. in the
WFTE parking lot in Scran-
ton, is exactly what the title
suggests. Its a flea market
where people can set up tables
to sell their things, and its a
concert featuring four local
punk acts.
(The bands) are not like
hardcore-punk bands. Theyre
not scary, I guess, said Ogo-
zaly. We took the kind of
punk-rock attitude of theres
something for everybody, so
we have a wide assortment of
things.
The musical acts chosen for
the flea market are local
bands that have submitted
tracks to WTFE-FM in the
past. After giving the bands a
listen and checking each
groups availability, Ogozaly
made the final decision to
recruit Think Big!, Down to
Six, Call Me Out and Down a
Lifetime.
Down to Six is a punk-rock
trio from Wilkes-Barre. After
being in several bands in the
past, vocalist and guitarist
John Novak picked out the
best kids out of his previous
musical projects, landing him
with bassist Garrett Konecke
and drummer Cody Klein.
Down to Sixs sound is
inspired by bands such as The
Clash, Rancid, Stray Cats and
more, while Novaks child-
hood roots stem from assorted
Rockabilly, The Beatles and
more. Down to Six, which
will be playing at 4 p.m. at
the flea market, doesnt be-
lieve in sugarcoating its music
and prefers to get straight to
the point with its listeners
through quick, hard-hitting
melodies.
There are a lot of bands
today and a lot of bands in the
past that have a lot of cheese
to it, said Novak. (Our in-
spirations) were the bands that
we found are more straight-
forward, not a lot of bullshit.
In addition to the live enter-
tainment, there will be more
than 20 vendors at the flea
market, with an assortment of
items available to the public.
From CD and record collec-
tions to vintage clothing,
homemade crafts and trea-
sures in your garage, Ogoza-
ly says that the flea market
needs more people and en-
courages others to set up last-
minute tables for a $10 vendor
fee.
The punk-rock flea market
will test the Scranton waters
this weekend, and Ogozaly
hopes that it will draw enough
attention to become a reoccur-
ring event.
Id like to do it every sum-
mer, if possible, said Ogoza-
ly. Thatd be a goal. W
Not your momma's
flea market
Think Big! is one of the bands thatll perform at the Punk Rock Flea Market Saturday.

S
exual fantasies, role chang-
es and a man in a dress,
these are all things that you
may find on an episode of Jerry
Springer. Instead, you can find
them in an upcoming play, and
not with one of those boring
Midsummer Nights Dream
kind of plots either.
On Friday and Saturday, July
29-30, and Aug. 5-6, the Phoenix
Theatrics in Duryea will be pre-
senting My Husbands Wild
Desires.
The play is a slightly risque
comedy about a married couples
attempt to spice up their love life,
and the several ridiculous sit-
uations that develop as a failure
to do so.
When explaining why he chose
to run the script at Phoenix,
theater director Chas Beleski
thought the script was funny and
would attract and entertain the
audience.
I kind of caught myself laugh-
ing out loud, Beleski said. I
showed it to my friends and they,
too, found themselves laughing
out loud. You chose something
that will appeal to your audi-
ence.
Besides the ability to make
him and his friends laugh out
loud, Beleski also took the sim-
plicity and practicality of as-
sembling the play into account.
The set consists of nothing more
than a living room and, of course,
a bedroom.
Considering the title, thats
self-explanatory, Beleski said.
The costumes for the cast
arent any more complex than the
set is.
There wouldnt be any prob-
lem with the costumes, he said.
We like to keep things simple.
The burglar is dressed in black,
the wife is dressed in seductive
lingerie, and the husband is in a
dress.
The husband is a rough, gruff,
take-charge kind of guy, who
through the trials of living out his
fantasies eventually sports a
dress, which is where it gets
ridiculous, Beleski said.
The husband goes by the name
of Mr. Griffin, who is played by
Mike Lally. Beleski cast Lally
because he is a strong-looking
character, therefore, the director
thought he was perfect for the
role.
Being that he was familiar
with the majority of them, one of
the easier tasks for Beleski was
assembling his cast.
I think I have a pretty good
cast, Beleski said. Each of the
characters are strong stand-out
characters.
Alicia Nordstrom, who plays
Mrs. Griffin, was attracted to the
role, and Beleski said she was a
great fit. Mrs. Griffin is a se-
ductive kind of character, and I
think Alicia can portray that very
well.
Mr. Connelly, played by Joe
Demura, is the superintendent of
the building the Griffins live in,
and he is dragged into one of the
fantasies that the experiment-
ing married couple attempts.
David Giordano plays a bur-
glar, who, also, is dragged into
one of the situations the Grif-
fins create. The last addition to
the small cast of characters is
Mrs. Griffins sister, Louise, who
is played by Gwen Gramer.
Assembling the cast and set
was simple, especially because
the members of the cast were all
excited to take part in the play;
however, Beleski did have some
difficulties with preparing the
show. Rehearsals, although fun
for the cast, were difficult to
schedule.
All the actors are working,
and it takes a lot of hours, he
said.
According to Beleski, the
actors have been enjoying all four
weeks of rehearsals, and theyre
ready to go.
If the audience has as much
fun as the cast had, it will be a
great evening for them, he said.
The great evening will in-
clude a series of mishaps, un-
expected twists in the plot and a
man clothed in a dress.
If they want to know why Mr.
Griffin is in a dress, then theyll
have to come see the play. W

By Rachel A. Pugh
Weekender General Manager
T
hree years ago, Avi
Woolman transformed
her passion for yoga
into a career. Starting
her venture with recycled
T-shirts, Activewear USAnow
has thousands of customers
all wanting quality and stylish
workout attire. Now a proud
owner of a pair of its workout
pants by Margarita, I can easily
understand the attraction.
With slimming fabric, stylish
colors and quality material that
will sustain years of physical
activity, I plan on frequenting
ActivewearUSA.com for my
workout needs. Learn about the
woman behind Activewear USA
and her company that consists of,
literally, thousands of styles.
WEEKENDER: You
quit your day job to open
Activewear USA. How did
you get started?
WOOLMAN: It all started
with the Yogoco Yoga bag! In
2008, I started yoga and was very
Bringing style and comfort to the gym
surprised that there were no good
yoga bags on the market, so I
created an eco-friendly yoga bag
made from pre-consumer T-shirt
scraps that could t everything
(a mat, a towel and a bottle of
water). ActivewearUSA.com
started as an additional channel
to sell the bags, together with
the bottle and towels. We added
clothing pretty quickly, starting
with Margarita Activewear.
WEEKENDER: I love
the Margarita wear as it is
so fun and different from
traditional yoga pants.
And you cant beat the
quality of fabric. How did
you discover the brand?
WOOLMAN: I agree,
the fabric and cut are perfect,
and they are so much fun!
I am originally from Israel
and Margarita Activewear is
from Israel. I found Margarita
Activewear in a local activewear
store (that we have since
acquired), and when I read the
tag Made in Israel, I could
not believe it. I called them
immediately when I got back
to the ofce, and the rest is
history. We are now one of the
largest importers of Margarita
Activewear in the U.S.
WEEKENDER: You
personally choose all
the items for your site.
How do you fnd them,
and what do you look for
when choosing just the
right items?
WOOLMAN: We are
contacted by about ve
companies every week wanting
us to resell their activewear
lines. We are looking for three
things when bringing on a brand:
1. It needs to be a brand. We
are not interested in generic
workout apparel. 2. It has to be
a performance product, made
from technical fabrics. The
women that wear our clothes
workout in them and test them
every day (as I do). The fabrics
need to be breathable, dry fast
and stretch well so that freedom
of movement is not impaired.
3. It has to look great! Women
shopping at ActivewearUSA.
com want to look great for the
gym, and dont necessarily have
time to change between various
activities. Our activewear has to
get you through the day looking
great, working out is only one
aspect of that.
WEEKENDER: What
kind of client base do you
have?
WOOLMAN: We currently
get more than 30,000 visitors
per month to ActivewearUSA.
com, with nearly 200,000 hits. I
am pleased to say we have over
5,000 happy customers. Not bad
for three years!
WEEKENDER: Besides
yoga clothing, what other
items do you sell?
WOOLMAN:
ActivewearUSA.com carries
more than 60 high-performance,
stylish, womens activewear
brands. More than 1,200 styles
and 14,000 options (size/color).
We sell running, gym, cycling,
workout, dance-tness and, of
course, yoga apparel for women.
WEEKENDER: What
makes your company
different than other
ftness-wear companies?
WOOLMAN:
ActivewearUSA.com is the only
store where you can shop for
60+ high performance, stylish,
womens activewear brands in
one place. We have a huge range
of the best activewear on the
market. Couple that with $5 at-
rate shipping (U.S. domestic),
Fit Guarantee (if it doesnt t, or
you dont like it, we will pay for
the shipping back), Price Match
Guarantee, super-easy returns
and customer service that is
always listening and providing
real value to our customers,
we think that makes us a little
different. W

ralphie report
the
By Ralphie Aversa
Special to the Weekender
W
hen Demi Lovato said
on The Ralphie Radio
Show that just about
everybody in my phone book
reached out to her after the re-
lease of Skyscraper, she may
have not been exaggerating. In an
interview that aired Wednesday
night on The RRS, Joe Jonas
revealed he was one of those
supporters.
I think (Skyscraper) is
great, remarked Jonas. Im
really happy for her, and its a
great song, and Im glad to see
that shes able to pull out those
emotions in a song.
After a reference was made to
Lovatos aforementioned com-
ment, Jonas acknowledged that
he was also one of those people.
It certainly speaks volumes
Jonas took the time to listen to
the song and reach out to Lovato.
No, not just because the two once
dated, but because the middle
Jonai is a very busy guy these
days. Hes knee-deep in a multi-
media press tour to promote his
new single, See No More. The
track represents a departure from
what you may have come to
expect from The Jonas Broth-
ers, and thats no coincidence.
Joe hit the studio with none other
than Chris Brown to create the
song. Brown co-wrote and pro-
vided backup vocals.
We were not originally going
to write together, we were just
playing each other music, said
Jonas of his initial studio encoun-
ter with Breezy. The next day
we got in the studio and wrote
the song in like two hours or so.
Jonas found inspiration in
Browns sound, and the Jonas
brother feels that will be apparent
when his album, Fast Life, hits
stores Sept. 6.
BEHIND THE SCENES
@LIL WAYNE
- The mood backstage was
very mellow and low key in the
afternoon and early evening.
Despite requests from Lil
Waynes management that all
backstage interviews be complete
by 6 p.m., I found myself leaving
Keri Hilsons dressing room
almost at 6:30 p.m. Hilson is not
just a perfectionist with her mu-
sic, but with her look as well,
working with her makeup artist
and manager to ensure that she
looked pristine and that the light-
ing and scenery in her small
dressing room was perfect. She
did, and it was. See it now at
97bht.com, keyword: Ralphie.
- Staff backstage at Toyota
Pavilion commented that securi-
ty was just as tight as Waynes
2009 visit. If you recall, some
workers told me back then that in
their 10 plus years at the venue,
they had never seen such a strong
security detail.
- Far East Movement was a
little late to my interview back-
stage, and I suppose I could
excuse them: I cant tell you how
many times I misjudged the
length of that drive from Wilkes-
Barre to Moosic. FEM stayed at
The Woodlands Monday and
Tuesday evening and took full
advantage of some of the various
amenities, including the Club
Havana Deck Bar and the pool.
- FEM wasnt the only group
of artists there yes, Lil Wayne
and the rest of Young Money
spent their time in NEPA inside
The Woodlands. Wayne checked
in Monday evening, and was
spotted Tuesday in The Woods
parking lot working on his skate-
boarding skills. After the show,
Weezy retreated to his room,
where he allegedly worked on
music until the wee hours of the
morning. If youve seen The
Carter documentary, then you
know that in addition to mobile
recording equipment on his tour
bus, Weezy can literally set-up a
studio in the middle of his hotel
room and spit lines. I guess if we
hear any reference to NEPA or he
name-checks the Kornfelds on
Tha Carter IV, well have our
confirmation. W

p.m.-midnight on 97 BHT.

usic makes us move
our bodies sway, feet
following the beat. It
touches our heart, excites our
spirit. Even when we dont know
the song, it still can spur some-
thing inside, an energy that brings
people together. But if the body
isnt healthy, how can we let the
music move us?
Back for the third year, Sound
for Scoliosis will bring music and
people together to raise aware-
ness about the condition Friday-
Sunday, July 29-31 at Heils Place
in Dunmore. The event will not
only feature a lineup of local
musicians, but also food and
drinks, guest speakers, screenings
and a silent auction.
Lucia Peregrim, organizer of
Sound for Scoliosis and president
of the Northeast Pennsylvania
Chapter of the National Scoliosis
Foundation, said she is looking
forward to this years event as it is
far bigger than the previous
years, continues to raise aware-
ness and will contribute to scolio-
sis research, having raised
$10,000 last year in monetary and
in-kind donations.
Its a time for local musicians
to get together and rock out for a
good cause, she said. I want to
put the awareness into the area,
and this is a great way to do it.
Diagnosed with scoliosis at age
13, Peregrim knows firsthand
how the condition, which causes
an abnormal curvature of the
spine, can affect the life of some-
one who has it. Occurring more
often in females, Peregrim said it
can not only affect self-esteem
and quality of life, but also lead
to more severe health conditions
later on.
Helping to promote early pre-
vention and detection, Dr. Clay-
ton Stitzel of the Lancaster Spinal
Health Center in Lititz, Pa., will
be speaking Sunday about the
importance of screening for the
condition, as well as new treat-
ments available to correct it.
Having participated in last years
event, Stitzel said when he first
heard about Sound for Scoliosis
he knew he had to take part as it
is a very important topic that
needed attention drawn to it.
This is something I have to
support, this is something I need
to be behind, he said. A lot of
the same ideals, concepts, early-
stage awareness and early-stage
scoliosis intervention are along
the same message Im promoting.
Were really trying to create
awareness, were really trying to
create a sense of urgency. Screen
your children, have a sense of
urgency about it, be proactive.
Small curves become big curves.
Peregrim said there will be free
screenings during the day on
Sunday provided by Dr. Jason
Yusavage of the Olyphant based
Yusavage Family Chiropractic.
She said that having these screen-
ings available will increase the
effort people make towards get-
ting checked, and effort is very
important to the cause.
Effort never dies, she said
And thats exactly what is behind
Sound for Scoliosis.
Both Stitzel and Peregrim
agree that it is important for
people to pay attention to their
body, and become involved in the
effort to raise awareness about
scoliosis. Peregrim said she
hopes that people will come out
to the event again this year and
support everything those involved
with Sound for Scoliosis have put
together.
What else do you have thats
more important than being at the
event and seeing what Sound for
Scoliosis is all about? she asked.
Its rocking out for a good time
and for a good cause that will
hopefully make an impact in the
near future. W

Tips
By Janelle Engle
Special to the Weekender
from a
barbie chick
W
hen it comes to sum-
mer, most people love
to think in bright
colors and, in particular, even
brighter clothing. But no
color on the spectrum is
more crisp, classic and fash-
ionable than white. A favorite
classic piece of mine is the
white button-up blouse, a
must-have piece in every
closet thats easy for dressing
up and down, no matter what
the occasion.
Whether you wear it loose
and tied up (like Britney
Spears in her unforgettable
Baby One More Time
music video) or choose to go
for the freshly ironed, but-
toned-up neat and profession-
al look instead, its a versatile
piece that youll end up wear-
ing a lot more than you
think. At the same time,
though, whereas black is
slimming, white does the
opposite, so know your body
type before buying. A white
blouse is a good wardrobe
staple to have, but like the
little black dress, you need to
find the right one for you. Be
choosy, and dont be afraid to
spend a little more on a time-
less piece like this.
You cant go wrong with a
white blouse with denim
shorts, this is a classic simple
look. But if you want to real-
ly show off that back-from-
the-beach summer tan, white
on white is a hot summer
trend that will flaunt your
sun-kissed glow and always
looks super put together. A
word of caution though: Do
not under any circumstances
pair a white blouse with a
black skirt or pants. This is a
rookie mistake that will leave
you looking like you dont
own any colorful clothes or,
in the worst case, like a wait-
ress caught in her uniform
off-duty. If the white-on-
white look seems a little too
plain for your taste, try add-
ing a long statement necklace
or bunch of bracelets. That
extra pop of color, whether
its in your accessories or
your shoes, will really pull
everything together. W

tech talk
By Nick Delorenzo
Special to the Weekender
F
lush from the announce-
ment of yet another record
quarter of both sales and
profits, Apple marked the
launch of an array of new prod-
ucts last Wednesday, including
the latest iteration of its OS 10
platform, version 10.7, also
known as Lion.
Lion is, like the last few iter-
ations of OS 10, a refinement on
prior versions. It does include
several completely new features
picture-in-picture view, a
higher-resolution cursor, an
improved address book, an up-
dated file transfer program
called AirDrop, refinements to
the Facetime app introduced
with the iPhone 4, revisions to
finder and added support for
full-screen Apple Apps, in-
cluding support for gesture-
based navigation via track pad.
Additional improvements
include Launchpad, which is a
sort of landing page for Apple
Apps, and the inclusion of the
Mac App Store, allowing users
to purchase Apps for their desk-
top or laptop Macs.
Another new release from
Apple is an updated MacBook
Air, featuring Intel Core i5 and
i7 processors, Thunderbolt ports,
(Thunderbolt is a new cable and
port setup that Apple and Intel
have introduced that allows for
connecting multiple devices with
high-speed data transfer) and
upgraded Bluetooth, webcams,
Wi-Fi and much more. The base
MacBook Air will weigh in at a
very reasonable $999, while the
highest-end model will cost you
$1,599.
Apple has also updated the
Mac Mini, adding more power-
ful Intel processors, Thunderbolt
ports, and a high-definition
Radeon graphics card. The re-
vised Minis more powerful
processors also feature Turbo-
Boost for processor intensive
applications. The Apple Mini
begins at $599 and runs up to
$999.
Finally, Apple has introduced
a 27-inch display thats equipped
with an HD webcam for Fac-
etime, built-in speakers and
Thunderbolt connectivity. The
new monitor features 2560 x
1440 resolution, gigabit Ethernet
ports and costs $999.
Interestingly Apple has axed
the standard MacBook from its
laptop lineup, leaving users
seeking an upgrade to choose
between the MacBook Pro and
MacBook Air.
All of these products should
be available in Apple Stores and
online now. W
Nick DeLorenzo is director of
Interactive and new media for
The Times Leader.
E-mail him at
ndelorenzo@timesleader.com.
The MacBook Airtapers to 1/10 of an inch. Its base model weighs in at $999.

Ride of
the Week
When you get into this car, its like youre in a
different era, Bevan says. My wife and I both grew
up in the 60s, so this is a way of feeling young.
This generation was the rst for the Malibu,
and it was the top-trim package in the Chevelle
line; eventually, the Malibu would be upgraded to a
model on its own.
Ive owned the car for about 10 years, Bevan
shares. I love being at car shows and have people
come up and tell me their own memories of 60s
Chevrolets. W

sorry mom&dad
By Justin Brown
Weekender Correspondent
T
he same weekend I
awoke from a night of
drinking in a trailer
park to discover I was the
new owner of a Chihuahua,
the infamous Taco Bell dog
that he resembled ironically
passed away from syphilis or
old age or something. I was
determined to turn my dog
into the next Taco Bell dog.
In an attempt to socialize
him so hed be ready for
a life of mega-stardom, I
started taking him to the
bar with me. Instead of
turning him into a prof-
itable TV star, I turned
him into an alcoholic
and a sex addict.
They say dogs tend
to act like their own-
ers, and that was
made apparent when
my little Mexican
Brody found a
way to party
on Cinco de
Mayo that
even put
me to
shame. He
impregnated
my moms cockapoo!
Justin! my mother
screamed from downstairs.
When I got to the foot of
the steps, she was screaming
louder than a rape whistle.
Brodys stuck in Stella,
she shouted, bent over trying
to pull them apart.
Call 9-1-1, she demand-
ed.
Im not calling 9-1-1 be-
cause my dogs stuck in a
cockapoo! I shouted back.
Then call the vet! she
hollered, sweat dripping from
her beet-red face.
Hi, umm my dog is
locked inside my other dog,
I told the receptionist who
answered at the veterinary
clinic. Is that normal?
They put me on hold to
ask, I told my mother, who
was still attempting to yank
the two apart.
You should have said you
were Berts son, they
wouldnt have put you on
hold, she insisted.
Mom, his name is Bert,
not Beyonce. Theyre not
going to know him just by
Bert over the
phone! I as-
sured her.
We go there
all the time,
you asshole,
she frantically
yelled.
I walked
away and start-
ed vicariously
living through
Kathy Lee Gif-
ford as she was
day-drinking on
TV.
A few hours later my
mother told me she was
going to make my sum-
mer miserable if Brody got
Stella preggers.
What am I going to do
with cocka-chi-wakka-kas or
whatever the hell theyre
called, she cried, slamming
her bedroom door, where she
locked herself for the rest of
the day!
63 days later, two cocka-
chi-wakka-kas or whatever
the hell theyre called, were
born. Want one? Let me
know at Facebook.com/sorry-
momanddad. W
F--ck Keeping Up With
The Kardashians, keep up
with Justin on

LEO (JULY 23-AUG. 22)
Just because you now have serious
bargaining leverage doesnt mean you
necessarily have to (or should) use it. In
fact, the classier way to go is to not men-
tion it at all. Oh, its on the table theres
not much anyone can do about that. But by
not overtly and explicitly involving it in
whatever negotiations youre having,
youre taking the high road and allowing
things to play out in a way thatll hopefully
lead to a resolution thats satisfactory to
everyone, not just you. Ultimately, thats
the better end result, even if you person-
ally dont get the absolute best deal you
might have. Trust me on this.
VIRGO (AUG. 23-SEPT. 22)
Discrimination happens all the time.
Unfortunately, no ones figured out how to
rid the world of prejudice and bigotry in
one fell swoop. So far, the best way to do
so is one person at a time, usually through
personal interaction. Surprising people out
of their unfair assumptions, while time-
consuming and occasionally difficult, is
satisfying and obviously in your best in-
terest right now; therefore, make sure you
give it the proper amount of attention this
week. Youll have numerous opportunities
to enlighten and/or slap awake people who
are in desperate need of it. Seize them,
please.
LIBRA (SEPT. 23-OCT. 22)
Im almost certain your suspicions
about someone you love are, if not totally
unfounded, mostly false. However, living
with your paranoia cant be fun, nor
healthy, so finding a way to resolve it
should be your priority this week. Hope-
fully, a respectful, open conversation is
possible, because thatd be the best way to
figure out whats really going on, and
certainly cheaper and easier than some of
the alternatives (like hiring a private in-
vestigator). However, if you really cant
see swinging that frank exchange (or
wont buy whats said regardless) you may
have to go another route. Ultimately, do
what you must to get over this, now.
SCORPIO (OCT. 23-NOV. 21)
Denying your dark or negative feelings
will probably only make them stronger,
more pervasive and relentless. Therefore,
dont. However, dwelling on them is
equally unlikely to help matters. Instead of
trying to shut out the darkness (which,
perversely, is part of your strength), simply
attempt to inject more light into your life.
Get involved in something that will coun-
ter, in some way, your own internal nega-
tive forces. This may involve shuffling
things around so you have time, money, or
energy for a new activity. For the sake of
your mental and emotional health, dont
be lazy; get on it.
SAGITTARIUS (NOV. 22-DEC. 21)
Guilt isnt often a useful emotion. Thats
not to say you should try to ignore it when
it happens its probably conveying
fairly valuable information. However,
dwelling on it isnt helping anyone. Heres
what you should get out of guilt: Shit, I
should never do anything like that again;
meanwhile, what can I do to fix the sit-
uation? Once youve addressed that basic
thought, move on and let it go. Beyond
that, its not doing anyone any good. In
other words, dont wallow. Action is the
only panacea when you feel the way you
do.
CAPRICORN (DEC. 22-JAN. 19)
There are people (I call them trolls) who
enjoy nothing more than lurking about,
waiting for opportunities to stir up shit.
They goad people into episodes of anger,
bouts of frustration, and fits of crying,
apparently for no other reason than they
seem to enjoy seeing it happen. Often,
theyre very good at finding ways to get
people to engage with their bullshit, em-
ploying multiple strategies; if one doesnt
work, theyll try another. Unfortunately,
theres no winning here: Even if theyre
wrong and youre right; thats just not
the point. The only viable strategy is walk-
ing away without giving them a drop of
energy, which is often very hard to do.
Nevertheless, you should try.
AQUARIUS (JAN. 20-FEB. 18)
So the utopian fantasy you dreamed
about didnt pan out (guess what: They
never do). Forget your disappointment and
disillusionment for a second, and especial-
ly try to ignore that grass is always green-
er thing, which is sure to crop up right
around now. The truth is, everything looks
shinier from a distance; once you get close
up, you see all the flaws, inconsistencies,
and problems. The ones here may indeed
prove to be too much to accept. But before
you conclude that for sure, take another
look, and remember that its probably this
bad (or worse) anywhere else, and ask
yourself: Is this something you could, on
second thought, learn to live with?
PISCES (FEB. 19-MARCH 20)
Vacations (or the ever more popular
stay-cations) should be departures from
ordinary life. Its especially important for
you Fish to shake things up periodically
and experience radically different versions
of reality, so you dont get stuck in one
particular aspect of your infinite self. The
next chance you have, make sure you get
out there and have an adventure of some
type (interpret this as creatively as you
wish). Consider it a vacation from any rut
youre stuck in (or might be, soon). Thats
more important than ever, so dont post-
pone it any longer than you have to.
ARIES (MARCH 21-APRIL 19)
Gloating when life is fantastic is a sure
way to jinx it. Thats not to say you
shouldnt notice and appreciate when
things are going well; you should, or youll
be miserable when they take a turn for the
worse (which they will, sooner or later).
Im just saying parading your (momentar-
ily) near-perfect life around is only going
to make people resent you and hope pi-
anos fall on your head. Instead, use this
chance to be even more present, available
and wonderful for those whose lives arent
in such great shape. In other words, spread
the joy instead of merely putting it on
display; its the best way to make it last.
TAURUS (APRIL 20-MAY 20)
Every relationship particularly mar-
riage is an agreement between two
people. The problem is, so often the terms
of that agreement arent explicitly laid out.
Its not romantic to discuss some of this
stuff! However, when people assume
theyre on the same page, it leads to un-
pleasant surprises (and the high divorce
rate). Unconditional love is great in theory,
but in practice, the kind of sacrifices and
concessions serious relationships require
deserve some payback both people
have to be getting something valuable out
of it. Making sure you will, before you
sign the papers, buy the ring, etc, just
makes sense to me.
GEMINI (MAY 21-JUNE 20)
Heres what often happens when the
right thing to do is something unpleas-
ant; people go around asking for advice on
the situation and asking and asking
until they find the words that will let them
rationalize doing what they actually want
to do. This is cheap. Dont do it. Double-
checking what you suspect is the case is
fine; you might be wrong, after all. But
once you get confirmation, dont keep
getting second, third and thirteenth opin-
ions until you find one that jives with what
you secretly want to do. If you want to do
the wrong thing, maybe you should, but
own it and make sure you can live with
having done it before you actually go
there.
CANCER (JUNE 21-JULY 22)
The recession has forced unpleasant
choices on almost everyone, but what it
shouldnt do is put a serious hitch in your
romantic life. Moving in prematurely (or
continuing to live with your ex) for eco-
nomic reasons is a bad idea no matter
what, for example. You need to find ways
to separate out your economic reality from
your emotional one. Its perfectly possible
to be happy (and/or in love) and be poor as
dirt; it just requires being a little more
creative and resourceful than those who
can afford endless floral bouquets and
dinners in fancy restaurants. W
