Letter from the editor
Is it just me or are people
driving completely ridiculously
lately?
I have been traveling a lot in
and out of the area, and Ive
noticed many, many drivers tak-
ing their sweet, old time in the
passing lanes of Interstates 80
and 81. Im not saying Im speed-
ing, dear state troopers who may
be reading heavens no! but
going 50 or less in the passing
lane is just plum unconstitu-
tional. Youre not out on a Sun-
day drive youre on a major
interstate.
Im sure that I should really
not let myself get so road rage-y,
but cmon, people. Get the heck
over and out of my way.
Now that thats off my chest,
my next order of business is this
weeks issue.
Forged, a movie
filmed in the
Scranton area in
2009, is going
national starting
next week, and we
talked to director
William Wedig
and executive
producer Joe Van
Wie about the
filming experi-
ence, their
thoughts on the
premiers and a
sneak peek of the local premier
that will be held in August.
Check out the story on pages
16-17.
Also in this weeks issue, you
can find out about a musician
named Paul Thorn who finds
inspiration from two very differ-
ent places (p. 20), a local com-
munity garden whose reach
grows far beyond NEPA (p. 29)
and some of our photos from last
weeks Warped tour (pages 62-
63).
Of course, theres a lot more to
read in this weeks issue, so start
turning pages. Thanks for pick-
ing us up!

THESE SHAMS
ARE READY TO ROCK
The North American La-
crosse League announced last
week that the Wilkes-Barre/
Scranton team will be called The
Shamrocks. The Shamrocks and
other teams in NALL will begin
play in January 2012.
The Shamrocks logo draws
its inspiration from the local Irish
heritage, said its designer Chris
Lochinski of Lock Designs.
The colors are based in the Irish
tradition while not being ster-
eotypical, the central shield de-
sign is based on a modified ver-
sion of ancient shield of arm
from Ireland, and lastly the cen-
tral clover design melds the shape
of the lacrosse stick into the
classic symbol of Irish pride, the
clover.
Season tickets for the Sham-
rocks start at $112 and are now
available at wbshamrocks.com or
by calling a team representative
at 570.371.3825. More NALL
team announcements are expect-
ed to be made this week.
GET CREATIVE
Dawe Consulting, LLC and
cds creative, inc. invite nonprof-
it organizations to submit appli-
cations for the 10th annual Cre-
ateAthon scheduled to begin
Thursday, Sept. 15 at 8 a.m.
Participants in the 24-hour
creative blitz will present the
final work to the nonprofits
Friday, Sept. 16 at 9 a.m. Dead-
line for applicants is Monday,
Aug. 1, applications are available
at nepacat.org. Last years Cre-
ateAthon provided marketing
services to 15 nonprofit orga-
nizations, and the market value of
the work is estimated at $50,000.
CreateAthon is the brainchild
of RIGGS, Inc., an advertising,
marketing and communications
firm in Columbia, S.C. In an
effort to give nonprofit orga-
nizations the professional,
creative marketing materials
that would otherwise be fi-
nancially unfeasible, RIGGS
formed the first CreateAthon in
1998.

COLLECT A PIECE
OF JETER
The New York Yankees De-
rek Jeter achieved his milestone
3,000th major league hit in
July, and Steiner Sports Market-
ing of New Rochelle, N.Y., was
ready (in partnership with the
Yankees and Major League
Baseball). Dozens of items
from the game were offered to
collectors, including the bases
($7,500 each), 30 balls used
during the game ($2,000 each,
unsigned), and even Jeters
sweaty socks ($1,000). Steiner
had also collected five gallons
of dirt (under supervision, to
assure authenticity), and uber-
fans can buy half-ounce con-
tainers of clay walked upon by
Jeter during the game (from the
shortstop area and the right-
hand batters box) for a
not-dirt-cheap $250 each.
DEMOCRACY IN ACTION!
Emerging democracies typ-
ically exhibit growing pains as
they develop stability. For ex-
ample, in July in Afghanistans
parliament, one female legisla-
tor attacked another with her
shoe (and then dodged the
second ladys flying water bottle
before colleagues separated
them). Older democracies, how-
ever, act more maturely
except perhaps in California,
where in June, an Italian-Amer-
ican legislator got into a shov-
ing match with a colleague
whom he thought had made a
Sopranos-type slur about
recent legislation. And in the
mature democracy of Wisconsin
in June, one state Supreme
Court justice was accused of
roughing up another (though
who started it is in dispute) as
the justices privately discussed a
case.
IRONIES
-- Budget cuts forced the
closure of two of the three
firehouses in Chillicothe, Ohio
(pop. 22,000), and even that
station failed a state fire mar-
shals inspection in March.
Because the stations own alarm
system was broken, the chief
was required, until the new
system is installed, to assign
one firefighter per shift to be
on full-time patrol at the sta-
tion, walking around the
grounds constantly, upstairs,
downstairs, looking for fires.
-- Run That by Me Again: (1)
In New Orleans in July, Tho-
mas Sanders, 53, pleaded guilty
to murdering a 12-year-old girl.
According to the neighboring
state of Mississippi, Sanders has
been dead for 17 years (having
been ruled deceased in 1994 on
petition of his parents, brother
and ex-wife). (2) In July, the
city of Daytona Beach Shores,
Fla., agreed to pay $195,000 to
settle a lawsuit in which six
people claim they were strip-
searched unlawfully by police.
Four of the six were strip-
searched during a raid at the
Biggins Gentlemans Club,
where they work as strippers.
EASILY OFFENDED
-- Norris Sydnor IIIs
$200,000 lawsuit against Richs
Nail Salon of Landover, Md.,
for humiliate(ing) him last
December is scheduled for trial
as News of the Weird goes to
press. Sydnor was upset that
males have to pay $10 for a
manicure but females only $9.
-- John Luckett filed lawsuits
on 11 different complaints earli-
er this year against the Las
Vegas arcade Pinball Hall of
Fame, claiming that he was
wrongfully barred from the
premises for obnoxiously com-
plaining about out-of-service
machines, especially Xenon,
which he says he has mastered
so well that he can play almost
indefinitely on an initial 50
cents. Among the damages
requested, Luckett is demanding
$300 for each therapy session
he might have to undergo to
overcome the trauma of being
ejected. Luckett has filed more
than 40 lawsuits in his role of,
as he put it, avenging peoples
attempts to screw him.
SHOULDVE KEPT
THEIR MOUTHS SHUT
-- According to a bailiff,
convicted car thief Thomas
Done, 33, spent almost a half-
hour at his June sentencing
shucking and jiving Ogden,
Utah, Judge Michael Lyon be-
fore finally finagling probation
(instead of 15 years in prison)
by expressing parental love
for his young daughter and
blaming his recidivist crimi-
nality on his girlfriends in-
fidelity. However, literally sec-
onds after Judge Lyon an-
nounced probation, Done, notic-
ing his girlfriend in the
courtroom, made a gun-trigger-
ing motion with his thumb and
fingers and said, Boom, bitch.
A bailiff reported the gesture to
the judge, who declared Done
in violation of his brand-new
probation and ordered him
re-sentenced.
-- Initially, all Jay Rodgers
wanted was for the fellow At-
lanta gas station customer to
say thank you when Rodgers
held the door for him, but the
man remained silent, and Rodg-
ers pressed the issue, confront-
ing him and even following the
man out to his car where
the man pulled a gun and shot
Rodgers in the abdomen, send-
ing him to the hospital for nine
days. (Interviewed on WSB-TV
in May, Rodgers resumed nag-
ging the man, urging him to
do the right thing by turning
himself in.)

Unclear on the Concept: The initial
explanation by Thomas ONeil, 47, upon his
arrest in Wausau, Wis., in June for criminal
damage to property (breaking into a
neighbors garage and defecating on the
floor) was to claim that he thought he was
in his own garage.

C
laimed to be the most
haunted city in America,
Scranton is filled with a
history of coal mines, unex-
plained and tragic deaths and
series of hardships that lead to its
local hauntings. The Scranton
Ghost Walk was created to figure
out the history behind the area
and to uncover local claims of
experiencing odd feelings and
why these mysterious things
happen where they occur.
Penny Wilkes, co-founder of
the Scranton Ghost Walk, started
to believe in ghosts at the Houdi-
ni Museum on North Main Ave-
nue in Scranton.
I never believed in any of it. I
always thought, Oh, people are
emotional and making things
up, said Wilkes. That building
is definitely haunted. Ive been in
it so often that I know the differ-
ence between what sounds like
an old building and what sounds
like something happening.
What was described as a
haunted picture frame, Wilkes
explained that every time it was
hung up on the wall in the mu-
seum, it would get thrown on
the floor and smashed. Current-
ly the frame, left unrepaired with
broken glass, is left on a shelf in
the museum where it is still be-
ing thrown around and damaged
on a regular basis.
There have also been multiple
claims revolving around an an-
tique wrought-iron cat statue in
the mens bathroom in the mu-
seum.
People say that when theyre
in there, a lot of people report
things happening, like the head
moving or the cat purring, or the
cat hissing. Its amazing, said
Wilkes. One guy actually was
there for the evening at the
haunted event, and he had to go.
He said, This is too much, I
cant take it.
The Scranton Ghost Walk is a
90-minute tour that leads walkers
through the historical sites of
downtown Scranton where there
are many haunted legends to be
told. Some of the locations de-
scribed on the Ghost Walk web-
site include the Scranton Cultural
Center, Albright Library, State
School for the Deaf, Harrison
Avenue Bridge and the Radisson
Lackawanna Station Hotel.
Participants with smartphones
are welcome to download a free
Ghost Radar application which
can detect nearby spirits during
the tour. According to Wilkes,
the strangest occurrence during
their tours happened recently,
when the radar application on a
womans phone began beeping to
signify nearby ghosts.
When photos were taken of the
surrounding area, they captured
images of three orbs that were
following the people as they
moved. After they took these
photos, Penny explained that they
saw words across the camera
screen that read family, shift
and message. Following this
strange correlation of words, one
of the participants of the tour
soon checked a new message on
their phone that told them to
hurry home because their mother
was being rushed to the emergen-
cy room.
That was creepy, said
Wilkes. And how that happened,
I dont know. That is the stron-
gest form of any kind of manifes-
tation that Ive ever seen in my
life. It was creepy, but extremely
accurate.
Many attendees, who once
never believed in ghosts, have
been converted after going on the
tour. From an armed prison war-
dens trigger hand being
tugged, to a non-believer captur-
ing a series of photos of orbs and
auras, Wilkes claims that many
people walk away with a new
perspective on the existence of
paranormal activity.
Its fun like that because the
people that go on the walks have
different beliefs and different
feelings, she said. Some think,
Oh, Im just going to go on
some corny thing, and then in the
end of it, theyre like, This is the
best thing Ive ever been on! W

is rumored to be haunted.

Behind the movie
Scranton-shot Forged flm
goes national, local premier
set for August
By Nikki M. Mascali
Weekender Editor
Forged director WilliamWedig on the Scranton set with the flms star, Manny Perez.

Forged isnt
just a story about
a murderers
redemption the
gritty, Northeastern
Pennsylvania-shot drama is
much more than that, actually.
Yes, its main character,
Chuco, played by Manny
Perez, is released after serving
time for murdering his wife
in front of their young son,
Machito, who is now 13 and
homeless. Chuco tries to stay
on the straight and narrow and
make amends with Machito,
who escaped an abusive foster
family only to try to survive
the streets by becoming a
male prostitute while
vowing revenge on the father
he blames for the bad turn his
life has taken.
Just as much as Forged
is the story of this father and
son, its also the story of its
makers, the people behind the
scenes who are now relishing
the fact that their labor of love
will be seen on several select
theaters across the country
starting with premiers in
New York, Los Angeles and
Chicago Friday, July 29.
I was very excited to
nd out that our lm was
going to have a great release
through Maya Entertainment,
Director William Wedig, who
co-wrote the script with Perez,
said in an e-mail. It wasnt
a shock per se since I was
actually working with them
through the deal to buy the
lm, so I sort of knew what
was going to happen. But
its still very exciting for my
rst professional lm to be
released as wide as it is and
where its going.
Executive producer and
NEPAnative Joe Van Wie,
too, is ecstatic.
While its happening,
you just dont believe its
happening, that such a small
production that we had in
Scranton was winning such
accolades at such accredited
lm festivals, he told the
Weekender while sitting in his
Scranton ofce.
The festivals in question
were the 2010 New York
Latino International Film
Festival, where Forged won
Best Domestic Feature, and
the 2010 Providence Latin
American Film Festival,
where it garnered the
Outstanding FilmAward. The
movie was also an Ofcial
Selection at the 2010 Los
Angeles Latino Film Festival
and the 2011 San Diego
Latino Film Festival.
The distributors knew we
deserved a theatrical release,
Van Wie said. There were
a few distributors prior to
that that were kind of on the
fence, but once they saw the
audience response to it, they
were like, Wow, weve got to
get that out. It deserves to be
seen with a theatrical release
the way we shot it.
A place I
understood

Forged was
originally going to
be a much smaller
project.

board, and our producer Josh
Crook picked it up, it just sort
of expanded, Wedig said.
Its been moving ever since,
and now Im just excited
for people to see the movie.
Its really very intimate and
moving.
The lm was shot
in February 2009, and
the process of getting it
distributed has been ongoing.
Things take a bit longer
when people have lives
its hard to do this full time,
Wedig explained, adding that
he has done freelance work
on the side in the interim
for companies like Sports
Illustrated and Lincoln. The
rest of our crew have similar
situations, so it really has to
be coming from a place of
passion to make these lms.
Theres a lot of love put into
these kinds of projects.
Not surprisingly, the
biggest challenge of shooting
in NEPAin February was the
weather.
When we shot, people
were saying it was the coldest
winter in 50 years, and it was
8 or 9 degrees the rst day,
and we shot outside for some
of it, Wedig recalled. Some
locations didnt have heat, and
we had little camping heaters
and made res and stuff like
that.
Something that wasnt a
challenge, though, was nding
local support for the lm.
We used a lot of locals in
the movie as extras and lled
a lot of the crew with people
who just wanted to help,
Wedig said. We couldnt
have made if it werent for the
support of Scranton and the
community around there.
Though the New York-
based Wedig had driven
through Pennsylvania often on
his way to and from his native
Ohio, he wasnt too familiar
with NEPAbefore lming.
Joe is from Scranton
and had a lot of connections
there, so when we were
considering where to make
(the movie), the colors and
landscape of that area really
made sense for the story, he
said. Pennsylvania and Ohio
and are similar, so I felt very
comfortable and felt like I was
making a movie in a place I
understood.

Forged Executive Producer
Joe Van Wie
of Scranton who cant travel
to the cities and have been an
enormous help in getting the
movie made, can see it, he
said. Well have some actors,
the director, the producers.
Well have a Q-and-Aafter,
a red-carpet premier for
Scranton, just so everyone
can enjoy a night seeing the
lm with the atmosphere of
a premier youd have in New
York.
Now that Forged is about
to forge its path across the
country, both Wedig and Van
Wie are far from idle.
The latters company, JVW
Inc., a video/web production
company/ad agency, has
several projects in the works.
One of them is a zombie
horror movie that will be
shot in Scranton; the other is
based on the book The Lion
In Autumn: ASeason With
Joe Paterno and Penn State
Football.
We did acquire control on
an adaptation of the book,
Van Wie shared. Weve been
working on the legal end of
it, and hopefully well be
through it in about six months,
and well be ready to plan
production.
Wedig has a few things
in the works, but nothing
concrete yet. I might direct
a show this fall, and Im
doing some editing for a surf
competition in September.
The Forged director is
also developing a screenplay
hes really interested in. It
has some action and a really
cool ensemble-cast idea, but
I dont want to give out too
many details.
Until some of these
projects come to light, both
men are relishing the current
state of Forged.
What I hope comes of it is
that the lm gets to the people
who love these stories,
Van Wie said. Its a niche
market, its a dark drama,
not a cookie-cutter-recipe
movie from a studio, its an
independent lm.
The fact that we got it to
a theater is monumental to us,
so many lms, good lms,
just do not make it. What
I hope comes of it is that
everyone involved in this gets
to jumpstart their career. They
could bump up, be proud of
being part of Forged. W

but then again ...
By Jim Rising
Weekender Correspondent
W
e had an ongoing
relationship for dec-
ades. There were times
when I sort of forgot. Times
when other relationships came
first. But I always watched,
kept track. There were times
when I was riveted, held spell-
bound by unworldly beauty,
quite literally.
I observed anniversaries.
Marked the other milestones in
my life by the big events in
our ongoing relationship, some
with great pleasure and satis-
faction, and some with a sure
sense that all is dust to dust.
I am not ashamed to say that
it thrilled me, saddened me
and ultimately left me empty,
bereaved and bereft, more so
than any other relationship I
have ever had, or ever will. I
can without any hesitation
brand it as my longest relation-
ship.
I am going through the clas-
sic stages of grief. Anger, but
I am not really sure at whom.
Denial that we could be so
stupid, to let this part of our
lives slip through our grasp
like it was never a big deal.
Acceptance? I am nowhere
near that yet.
Most relationships fail be-
cause the love cools, the pas-
sion fades. The opposite of
love is not hate, but indiffer-
ence, the blind eye. Not the
case here, the heat of my in-
terest remains but the truth of
the matter is that people who
have not the understanding for
what it was, not even the va-
guest idea of what it meant,
what it came from and what it
still could be, stepped in, got
between us and closed the
door.
Someone once told me it
takes a lifetime to learn how to
live one. While I have been in
this relationship, just shy of 54
years, I have lived several life-
times, raised children and seen
them flourish, watched love
ones grow old and pass from
this world.
The pity is that the world,
now, will never know what will
be missed. This relationship
gave far more than it took,
enriched our lives in ways that
few understand and once its
gone, once the genie is back in
the bottle, we will never know
what its like again.
In 1962, President John F.
Kennedy said:
as we set sail we ask
Gods blessing on the most
hazardous and dangerous and
greatest adventure on which
man has ever embarked.
With those words, he put in
motion American-manned ex-
ploration of space. And now
its over. When we want to go
to space we will hitch a ride
with the Russians.
The irony is too much. W

The infinite
goodbye
The pity is that the
world, now, will
never know what
will be missed.
This relationship
gave far more than
it took, enriched
our lives in ways
that few under-
stand and once its
gone, once the ge-
nie is back in the
bottle, we will nev-
er know what its
like again.

tech talk
By Nick Delorenzo
Special to the Weekender
I
f youre one of the many
Netflix customers who
was put out by the an-
nouncement that Netflix was
increasing prices, Block-
buster wants to make an
offer you cant refuse: A
month for free, plus a
slightly discounted monthly
rate (which is cheaper than
the equivalent Netflix plans).
But it might be a good
idea to wait before you de-
cide to jump ship in righ-
teous indignation over the
villainous Netflix plan
the services differ substan-
tially.
According to Netflix, what
its actually done is split
their DVD and web-stream-
ing services. So while you
were paying $9.99 per
month for one DVD at a
time and unlimited streaming
movies, youll now end up
paying $15 per month for
two services, DVD by mail
at $7.99 and unlimited
streaming video for $7.99.
For me, this plan actually
works out better; I have
Netflix, but I only use its
streaming service.
I can send off for a DVD,
but Ive never had any rea-
son to. If you only need its
DVD service, its also
cheaper youre only pay-
ing $7.99 a month. However,
Blockbuster offers a sub-
stantially different product
that includes Blu-Rays with
its DVD plans. Netflix
charges extra, not a big deal
for people who want to view
movies online, but maybe a
game changer for those of
you who prefer receiving
movies in the mail. Block-
buster also includes Xbox
360, Playstation and Wii
game rentals by mail in its
plans; Netflix doesnt offer
the service. And Blockbuster
allows you to return and
exchange videos at a phys-
ical store location, where
your plan will net additional
discounts.
I should mention that,
presently, Blockbuster offers
fewer titles than Netflix. So
while Netflixs increased
rates may be better or worse
for you, depending on how
you use the service, Block-
buster does offer additional
value for your dollar. Per-
sonally, given how I use
Netflix, it works out better
for me to stick with the
service. But as always, your
experience will differ, and
your mileage may vary. W

T
he border was brutal.
After immediately seeing a
man get turned away for a
crime he committed 30 years
ago, Paul Thorn, a musician and
former boxer, was thoroughly
searched before he was allowed
to continue his tour of Canada
last weekend.
After gracing the Ottawa
Bluesfest with his autobiograph-
ical music and soulful Mississip-
pi-accented vocals, he set off to
Toronto, where he planned on
doing the same.
The cities change, the cultures
change, but, ironically, the con-
stant migrating becomes routine
despite the shifting of environ-
ments. Just a crowd and a stage,
that is all Thorn has time to ac-
knowledge.
You dont get to absorb the
culture of where youre at,
Thorn said. Most nights, its just
a crowd and the people. Thats all
I get to see.
Come Saturday, July 23, he
may notice the difference in the
accent of the Northeast Penn-
sylvanian crowd reciting his
lyrics as he makes Mauch Chunk
Opera House in Jim Thorpe his
stage.
Thorn said that he feels fortu-
nate that hes able to maintain the
nomadic lifestyle of a musician.
Ive played every single state
in the union, he said. Every
year Ive been doing this, my
following has been getting bigger
and bigger.
With the release of his new
CD, Pimps and Preachers, two
of his biggest influences in his
childhood became the two big-
gest influences in the writing for
the album.
Although Thorn did mention
Tone Loc and Funky Cold Me-
dina as two hip-hop artists that
he enjoyed, and said that he liked
hip-hop when it wasnt about
shooting somebody or how many
bitches you had, hip-hop music
was not a factor in the name of
the album, despite popular belief.
His father was a Pentecostal
minister, and his uncle was a
pimp. Acting as the yin and yang
of Thorns childhood, both had a
major influence on his upbring-
ing.
My pimp uncle showed me
the dark side of life, Thorn said.
Im not as gullible as I would
have been without him.
Thorns uncle was the street-
wise mentor who taught him how
to box. Before becoming his
profession, Thorn said that box-
ing was a hobby of his, and it
became something he did in the
middle of his constant songwrit-
ing.
As a kid, Thorn attended two
different styles of churches: The
churches that sang soulful r&b-
type of gospel, and the churches
that sang the country-music
gospel.
They both have a big influen-
ce in my music, he said.
Swaying away from the generic
subjects of todays music, Thorn
said that he finds it important to
write music about whats real in
his life.
I think as you get older, what
you sing about changes, he said.
Im a 46-year-old man with two
kids and a wife, so, Im going to
write about that.
His various pairs of opposite
influences, from soul gospel to
country gospel, to pimp uncle
and preacher father, has created a
gumbo of character that has
allowed Thorn to create nine
storytelling albums that he said
all sound different.
As far as the album goes, the
two influences of the title have
offered little feedback towards it.
Thorn isnt worried about it
though.
My uncle never said not one
word. He probably likes it, but
doesnt have the ability to com-
pliment, Thorn said. My father
asked for some extra copies, so I
guess he liked it. W

ften, being green and
environmentally friendly
is associated with frum-
piness or a sacrifice of style,
but one step into Scrantons
GreenBeing a consignment/
eco-friendly shop located at
334 Adams Ave. and all
those preconceived notions are
swooped out the door and
replaced by visions of beautiful
handmade and vintage jewelry,
crafts, clothing, shoes and
handbags.
Staying in line with the
stores motto of offering prod-
ucts that are made with re-
gard for the environment and
sold with the local community
in mind, as its posted on the
stores web site, owner Cristin
Powers recently started offering
in-store classes for those who
want to learn how to take a
more hands-on approach to the
ecological lifestyle.
I kind of noticed that there
really wasnt a place offering
such an assortment of classes
like this, she said in an in-
terview in GreenBeings comfy
seating area. So I thought it
would be a good opportunity
to get new people into the
store, while also promoting the
brands of the artists who are
teaching the classes.
With classes focusing on
bookbinding, suitcase restyling
and embroidery, among other
things, Powers sought out the
instructors by approaching
people who already have wares
for sale in her shop. She is
also offering one-on-one sew-
ing lessons that she teaches
herself.
Each class remains true to
the stores overall environ-
mentally friendly approach. The
bookbinding workshop utilizes
scrap paper in place of new
paper, suitcase restyling gives a
facelift of sorts to vintage
luggage, screen-printing uses
eco-friendly ink and the eco-
crochet class uses plastic bags
and/or old clothing. In one way
or another, each lesson focuses
on creativity while minimizing
the impact on the environment.
Powers has noticed a positive
response from the community
and hopes to continue more
classes in the fall. Potentially,
she said, those workshops
might include a second coun-
terpart to this summers initia-
tives. For example, instead of
restyling luggage, next time the
focus might be on customizing
a handbag.
And then hopefully, like
Ive seen with the store, once
you start something, other peo-
ple start to come out and
come forward, who want to be
a part of it, she said. So
maybe Ill find a couple new
teachers who will want to
teach their craft.
GreenBeing has been in
business since 2008, and Pow-
ers hopes the classes will have
a snowball effect, bringing
more customers in to not only
learn a new trade but also
perhaps do a little shopping
amongst local and regional
brands and artists.
I just want to be a host for
the artistic community here,
she said. Bring things back to
buying local. W
GreenBeing gets
hands-on
By Stephanie DeBalko
Weekender Staff Writer
The Pre-Bookbinding class at GreenBeing gave
students the chance to learn how to create a pamphlet
from scratch with eco-friendly materials and is one of
many classes being offered at the store this summer.
Hopefully, like Ive seen with the store,
once you start something, other people
start to come forward, who want to be a
part of it. So maybe Ill find a couple
new teachers who will want to
teach their craft.

P
HILADELPHIA Wed
heard the stories about the
mammoth size of the U2
360 tour. Wed heard how the
stage itself was actually larger
than some arenas, and how the
only venues that could actually
contain it were football stadiums.
Wed heard about the fleet of
18-wheelers required to take the
show on the road, with as many
as 200 vehicles involved, and
how the staging takes days to
assemble.
On Thursday, July 14, it all
came to Philadelphias Lincoln
Financial Field. More than
67,000 fans were waiting. And
seeing is believing.
The stage is 167 feet tall and
nicknamed The Claw
looks like some sort of futuristic
spaceship. There were ramps and
catwalks and bridges and the
most dazzling video screens ever
seen. No concert tour has ever
been framed in such a way. And
yet when you tore it all away, it
was still, quite remarkably, all
about the music. Bono, with an
acoustic guitar and singing a
song such as One, managed to
outshine it all.
U2 opened with Even Better
Than The Real Thing and fol-
lowed with I Will Follow and a
highly-rhythmic rendition of
Mysterious Ways. Later, the
band offered Magnificent,
perhaps the best track from
2009s No Line On The Hori-
zon. Bono, acknowledging that
the show was first scheduled for
a year ago but postponed due to
his back surgery, then offered a
sincere thanks to the audience for
its support and its patience. He
spoke of the special connection
that exists between the band and
its audience, and that it was
something he probably didnt
speak of as often as he should.
His words were genuine.
There were several nods to
U2s own musical heroes amid
the show. Fitting into the space
theme, David Bowies Space
Oddity was played over the
PA-system before the band took
the stage and Elton Johns
Rocket Man was played after-
ward. Bono also peppered songs
with parts of Bruce Springsteens
The Promised Land and The
Rolling Stones Its Only Rock
n Roll (But I Like It) and
Miss You.
Midway through the concert,
astronaut Mark Kelly, in a video
clip shot during Space Shuttle
Endeavours trip to the Interna-
tional Space Station, introduced
Beautiful Day. Bono dedicated
the song to Kellys wife, Con-
gresswoman Gabrielle Giffords,
who was severely injured in a
Tucson shooting earlier this year
and had once suggested Beauti-
ful Day as a wakeup call for her
husband while on a shuttle mis-
sion. Only U2 could get an astro-
naut orbiting the earth to in-
troduce one of its songs during a
concert and it was both moving
and electrifying.
Other highlights included a
stirring performance of Stay
(Faraway, So Close!), an ener-
gized rendition of Vertigo and
a moving performance of what
some consider to be the best rock
song ever written: Pride. There
was passion behind a perform-
ance of Sunday Bloody Sunday
and members of Amnesty In-
ternational, carrying soft lights,
circled the stage during an in-
spired performance of Walk
On.
The show ended with perform-
ances of Hold Me, Thrill Me,
Kiss Me, Kill Me, With or
Without You, and Moment of
Surrender. Bono then asked the
crowd to sing Happy Birthday
to the bands friend Nelson Man-
dela, who turns 93 this week.
Few bands can draw more than
65,000 people in every city, and
even among the few that can,
even fewer can make such a
performance feel as communal as
U2. Like Springsteen, the crowd
at a U2 event becomes an actual
part of the show. And though all
concerts at such sizable venues
lose much of the intimacy found
at even a large arena where
U2 had performed on its previous
few stops in Philly U2 is a
band that can still harness con-
nections in such grand facilities.
Massive video screens are a part
of the reason why, but ultimately,
when you see 67,000 pumping
their arms to Where The Streets
Have No Name, you realize it is
still indeed all about the songs.

egetables are an important
part of a healthy diet, and
most people are content
with grabbing what they need
from the perfectly organized and
labeled sections of the local gro-
cery stores produce section.
However, for some, the quick trip
to the store just isnt enough.
They want to work the earth
beneath their feet, nurture seeds
as they grow into plants ready for
harvest. They want to see their
work come full circle, feel the joy
it brings and often times share
that joy with those around them.
While at times certain sit-
uations, such as the lack of a
backyard, make it nearly impos-
sible for home growing, residents
in Scranton have the opportunity
to bring their desire to life.

cleanups and childrens programs,
provides gardening space in
Lauries Community Garden,
located on the corner of Vine and
North Irving in Scranton. And
Sunday, July 24, the group will be
hosting a fundraiser event to
benefit the garden at Jacks Draft
House.
Jane Risse, manager of the
garden, said the fundraiser is a
great way for people to become
involved with keeping the garden
going.
It helps to raise awareness in
the neighborhood and allow other
people to know were there, she
said. Were helping to beautify
the outside weve planted
shrubs and flowers and really
improved the corner.
Risse said the fundraiser, which
runs from 4-7 p.m., will feature
various locally grown foods,
many of which are vegetarian, a
cash bar, raffles and a homemade
pesto contest. She said this is the
second year for the event, the first
raised around $2,000 to benefit
the garden.
Named for Laurie Bogaski who
lost her life in a fire on the prop-
erty back in 1999, Lauries Com-
munity Garden has become a
space for some of the residents of
Scrantons Hill Section to grow
everything from flowers and
herbs to various ethnic foods.
Risse said it has not only provid-
ed the opportunity for people,
many of whom are immigrants
from such places as Bhutan in
South Asia, Nepal and Mexico, to
grow their own foods, the garden
has also helped to bring together
people in the community who
may have not gotten to know one
another otherwise.
Some of the new immigrants
have food they cant get in our
stores, or they are used to garden-
ing and growing certain foods,
she said. For other people, its
simply community that brings
them here. Its important to the
individual people who are in there
we have 18 people who are in
there gardening and a waiting list,
so obviously theres a desire to
grow food. Its important for
people who dont have backyards
to be able to go somewhere.
With the demand so high for
gardening space, Risse said she
would like to look at the possibil-
ity in the future to create more
community gardens throughout
Scranton. Until that time, focus
remains on ensuring that Lauries
Community Garden continues to
provide space for community
members to grow not only plants,
but also close bonds of friend-
ship. Risse said she hopes that
people see the good the garden
has brought to the community
and come out to support it at the
fundraiser.
Its a fun event. Well have
music, well have really delicious
food some of it will probably
be new for you to try. Take part in
your neighborhood and help out.

It is quite frustrating when a
band strays from the sound that
initially broke it into the scene.
Sometimes it happens for the
better, but most of the time, the
fans that helped the band suc-
ceed in the first place usually
wind up let down.
When We The Kings debuted
its self-titled album in 2007, it
hit it pretty big. The band
headlined shows and shared the
stage with big-name acts in its
respective genre. WTK fell into
a sophomore slump with
Smile Kid, and now two
years later, its back for another
crack with Sunshine State of
Mind.
The new album proves what
path the band has chosen
one that leads to further regres-
sion. It seems like the group
has taken everything bad about
Smile Kid and rehashed it,
only making it even worse by
adding in unorthodox acoustic
guitars with muddy vocals and
production.
Gone forever are the hooks
that drove Check Yes Juliet
and Skyway Avenue. Gone
forever are the emotion-con-
tained, fast-paced anthems.
Even a similar duet single like
Well Be A Dream makes no
attempt to resurface its all
just gone.
The first three tracks on the
album seem to cater to 15-year-
old girls. Theyre sung by a
monotone Travis Clark and are
happy-go-lucky pop songs that
a teenage band can write. One
thing the album does prove is
that upbeat tracks do not always
equal catchy songs.
The middle of the album
lacks any type of emotional
delivery and is just plain bor-
ing. The latter part is where it
becomes tolerable with songs
like Over You and Kiss Me
Last.
Its clear nothing will redeem
Sunshine State of Mind with
such a lack of intensity and
passion. Its a shame We The
Kings could not find the musi-
cians in themselves that wrote
its debut album. If it comes
around, maybe the band will
experience success again, but
until then, it looks as though it
will continue down the path of
bland pop songs and regression.

After taking a hiatus to pursue personal
projects and essentially live life, alterna-
tive-rock mainstay Incubus reunites this
month with If Not Now, When?, its first
studio album since 200. Though the break
seems to have mellowed the band a bit,
the new album plays like a welcome re-
turn from an old friend and a respite from
the conformity of modern music.
The title track opens the album with a
slow pace, thought-provoking lyrics and
goosebump-inducing vocals, leading into
Promises, Promises, which definitely
leans more toward the pop genre.
Tomorrows Food, which ends with
an instrumentally perfect melody, com-
pensates for the sentimentality that is
omnipresent on the album, and The
Original is surprisingly sweet and up-
beat, while Switchblade rolls out like an
ode to alternative rock in the simplest
sense.
An album standout is In the Company
of Wolves, which starts off with innocent
vocals and a pounding, startling beat that
seems to reach a climax, and then jolts
back down into a sexy, even-paced
rhythm. The first single, Adolescents, is
just as effective, with power running
through its very backbone, in the guitar
licks, vocals and lyrics.
Incubus has already proven itself, but
this album takes its sound to a new level,
taking personal experiences that have
been forged over its break and putting
them into words and notes in a romantic,
lilting compilation. If Not Now, When?
is a bit of a stylistic departure, and one
that promises to allow the band to main-
tain the delicate balance between its indie
reputation and mainstream appeal.

A romantic
return
There is something about JD Mal-
one & The Experts that makes it the
type of band that can really be en-
joyed by anybody. No matter what
type of music youre into, the bands
easy-going nature just kind of pulls
you right in.
The band released its debut album
Avalon on July 12, and the release
proves that JD and company do not
leave listeners wanting for more.
This band did not go into the
making of this release halfheartedly
and really left no stone unturned
when it came to contribution, inun-
dating fans with 13 tracks and five
live performances. In addition to
those 18 tracks, a 37-minute DVD
documentary on the recording of the
album is also included. In case that
wasnt enough, the band also in-
cluded a booklet with the release
that holds all of the albums lyrics
and band member bios.
On Avalon the band does a stel-
lar job of incorporating both its
original material and some tried-and-
true rock staples, like a live cover
of Tom Pettys I Should Have
Known It and a cover of Creedence
Clearwater Revivals Fortunate
Son.
JD Malone & The Experts in-
corporates elements of country, clas-
sic rock and Southern rock on Ava-
lon. Its music just has a natural
mellow flow to it, yet JD Malone &
The Experts maintains gritty rock
undertones throughout, making this
versatile album something that will
be widely liked by those who hear
it.

novel approach
T
he title of a book usually
says a lot about its contents,
but in the case of Profes-
sional Idiot: AMemoir, by Ste-
phen Glover (otherwise known as
Steve-O) the title only brushes the
surface of the reality stars trou-
bled past and public persona.
Contrary to the impression Glover
has made on the public as a per-
petually loaded, uninhibited stunt-
man, his autobiography shows
something very different: Some-
one who is honest, regretful and
insightful in the most refreshingly
unexpected ways.
Professional Idiot leads the
reader through the stars life,
including his childhood and his
days with the MTVhit shows
Jackass and Wildboyz. Glov-
er hooks the reader fromthe first
page, where he begins with a tale
fromhis stay in the Orange Coun-
ty Correctional Facility, and his
unabashed candor about his drug
use, alcoholismand constant
quest for fame is regaled in a
voice that the reader not only
relates to, but actually kind of
likes. What makes Glover so
likable is howopen he is about
howmuch of a jerk he was for
most of his life and howmuch he
regrets behaving that way now
that he can see it all froma sober
perspective.
Where some celebrities pen
autobiographies that drone on and
on about nothing in particular,
Glovers sordid and seedy past,
and even his childhood, makes for
a fascinating read. While the
subject matter is grim, the stories
are tremendously impactful and
cast a newand more mature light
on Glover himself.
And for Steve-Ofans, the mem-
oir provides interesting tidbits
about his upbringing, like the fact
that he was born in England, and
his road to Jackass, which came
about after he started filming his
antics as a way to win back a girl
in college (he didnt get the girl).
The book also gives commentary
fromco-stars and family mem-
bers that illuminates all aspects of
the issues Glover has dealt with,
including his mothers health
issues and an eventual interven-
tion that was sprung on him.
Its hard to distinguish whether
or not embellishment plays a part
in the memoir, but based on Glov-
ers past television record, its not
difficult to believe he acted as a
test subject for a pharmaceutical
drug company or ended up drunk
and in jail the night before his
high school graduation.
On Jackass, everybody saw
Steve-Oas a guy who seemed like
he would do anything for the
camera and who cared little for
his own safety. While some of that
might be true, Professional
Idiot gives the other side of the
story. Never has a book been so
shockingly different fromwhat it
seemed it would be, and though
the stories of Glovers past behav-
ior routinely end in disappoint-
ment, his current reflection colors
those stories in a way that endears
himto the reader.

ralphie report
the
By Ralphie Aversa
Special to the Weekender
S
lowly but surely, things are
returning to normal for
singer and former Disney
star Demi Lovato. The 18 year
old has seen her fair share of
trials and tribulations over the
past year capped off by a trip
to rehab last fall where she was
treated for eating disorders and
diagnosed as bipolar.
Now, Lovato finds herself back
in the headlines for all of the
right reasons: A No. 1 iTunes
song with Skyscraper. Fans and
friends alike have voiced or
tweeted approval for the track,
which the teenager recorded a
year ago while silently dealing
with personal issues.
I took advantage of that hour
and a half in the studio of me
singing this song, and I was
doubled-over in emotional pain,
Lovato said via telephone in an
interview that aired Tuesday
evening on The Ralphie Radio
Show. I used it as, almost what
I look at now, as my cry for
help.
Lovato finds it ironic that a
year ago, she sang about her
problems silently. Now, not only
is she speaking openly and hon-
estly, but shes helping others in
the process. The singer dreams
that her give-and-take with fans
extends not just on iTunes or
Twitter, but on stage as well.
I dream about those moments
all the time, she responded when
asked about one day performing
Skyscraper live, for an audi-
ence. If I could, Id do it tomor-
row but we have to rehearse
first.
Lovato is not trying to get
ahead of herself, either. While
she deals with her personal issues
one day at a time, the artist is
also finishing up a new album.
Lovato has no timeline for its
release, and thats probably a
good thing. She noted that this is
her first album that she didnt
have to record in a month.
Every other album I havent
had time to really take my time
and craft it like I really wanted to
do because I was finding spare
time between a television show
and movies and touring and then
all over again, she said. Ive
worked on (the album) for the
past year and really gone hard
over the past few months, but
you can definitely tell that I took
my time with this record.
Some big names are also mak-
ing time for Lovato, including
Kara DioGuardi, Toby Gad, and
OneRepublics Ryan Tedder
all big songwriters who the teen
has recorded with for her third
studio album.
But those names pale in com-
parison to some of the other
people who showed public sup-
port for Demi after the release of
Skyscraper. Selena Gomez,
Pete Wentz, Katy Perry, Kelly
Clarkson, Jordin Sparks and
many more artists reached out to
Lovato to congratulate her on the
song. And Lovato says just about
everyone in her phone book
reached out personally to give
props.
Its the first single that Ive
ever released that has ever gone
to radio, so Im not really used to
this reaction, Lovato confessed.
I just feel like Im in a dream
right now, its crazy.
Given what shes already faced
at a rather young age, Im sure
this is one dream that Lovato
isnt trying to wake up from any
time soon. W

movie review
Y
ou can say whatever you
want to about the Harry
Potter phenomenon. Call
it wildly overrated, simplistic or
even claim that reading the books
or watching the movies can lead
children toward a dark, unholy
path (read: Theyll become giant
nerds), but no matter what it is
people say, there is one important
factor that makes the whole
Harry Potter series a little
more bearable: It isnt Twilight.
And generally speaking, the
fact that Harry Potter isnt
Twilight is probably the only
factor that keeps the property
from teetering into hateful oblivi-
on. As dreary wish-fulfillment
fantasies go, the desire to retreat
into a world where youre a super
wizard who everybody loves and
nobody knocks the clarinet case
out of your hands or throws your
Magic Cards into the toilet isnt
nearly as dismal or embarrassing
as the desire to retreat into the
world where youre in a commit-
ted but stiflingly chaste relation-
ship with a glittering Dracula.
For those who may be forced
into watching the latest install-
ment in the Harry Potter saga
by a loved one or a lonely strang-
er with a gun, you will be happy
to know that never once during
Harry Potter and The Deathly
Hallows Part 2s two-hour-
and-10 minute running time will
you find a Dracula. Glittering or
otherwise. So, things could be
worse.
In this, the fourth and final
installment in E.K. Rowlejtas
sweeping Finnish tone poem,
Harry Potter and the Deathly
Hollows Part 2 finds our heroes
Harry Potter (Daniel Radcliffe),
Dumbledorf (Michael Gambon)
and the boozy Daisy Gatsby
(Emma Watson) as they return to
the Shire to transmorph the evil
Royal Dutch of Dukes, Volver-
volve (Ralph Fiennes) into a
cube and then be crushed by
Kalevala (Jim Broadbent) and his
army of tepid bears. Also, Mug-
gles, Severus Snape, dragons
and, oh lets say Cylons are also
involved in this at one point or
another.
Yes, the above synopsis is
woefully inaccurate. Why, exact-
ly? Two reasons: Its always
amusing to piss off pedantic
nerds and reviewing a movie like
Harry Potter and the Deathly
Hallows Part 2 is an empty
gesture.
Potter fans are going to see this
movie regardless of whether
someone says its good or not.
Maybe theyll refer to a review if
it tells them what elements from
the book didnt make it on the
screen, but thats about it. Mean-
while, to the non-fan, the films
actual quality carries very little
weight. If theyve seen only one,
two or none of the films in the
series, no review no matter
how persuasive is going to
convince anyone to watch some-
thing that will only serve to con-
fuse them (granted, the final
installment shouldnt be coddling
newcomers, but would it have
killed the filmmakers to include
a brief recap of the previous
film?).
So who exactly is this review
for? Who can say really? But for
those who might be curious
about the films actual quality
and less concerned with whether
or not Peeves the Poltergeist
appears on screen (he doesnt),
the film is fast paced and watch-
able even though its essentially a
collection of barely connected
action set pieces. The perform-
ances are also fine, particularly
Alan Rickman, who plays Seve-
rus Snape with campy relish.
Ultimately unless youre a mas-
sive Potter-phile Harry Potter
and the Deathly Hallows Part 2
is the kind of affably mediocre
film you would half-watch on
cable in between naps on a Sun-
day afternoon two years from
now. But, again, at least it isnt
Twilight.

DaraCoslett
Granza
Olyphant
D
ara Coslett Granza is a lover of
animals, the performing arts and most
recently, the culinary arts.
Baking cupcakes is my latest
obsession, she says. I try to concoct
one unique recipe a month.
The newfound love of baking surfaced after a
stressful time in her life.
My dad was sick, and I was laid off from work
for more than a year, she shares. Dreaming up
recipes allowed me a creative outlet, and people
are so darn happy when you surprise them with a
cupcake!
An active volunteer, Dara sits on the advisory
board of the Scranton Civic Ballet Company and is
the publicity liaison for Cocktails for a Cause.
Occupation: Executive Director, the Olga
and Dorothea Dessin Society for the Prevention of
Cruelty to Animals, Honesdale
Craziest thing youve ever done: Hmm,
those who know me would say Im kind of a control
freak and not much of a risk taker. But, Id say its a
tie between riding a camel in Morocco at age 16 and
ying a plane for my 30th birthday.
Places youve traveled and your ultimate
favorite place: As a college mascot, I had the
privilege of traveling throughout the United
States while representing Temple University. As I
mentioned, in high school, I vacationed in Morocco.
Ive also been to England, France and Spain. My
husband and I honeymooned at the Sundance Film
Festival in Park City, Utah. I am in love with that
town! I hope to retire there!
What did you want to be when you grew
up? Probably a ballerina, which broke my dads
heart since he coached high school girls basketball,
and I wound up 6 feet tall! I studied ballet for 18
years.
Something you always keep in your car:
Two doggie car seats (for my Scotties Murphy and
Bonnie) and Windex wipes for when they nose up
the windows

By Rachel A. Pugh
Weekender General Manager
B
esides Forever 21,
Wet Seal, Victorias
Secret, and T.J. Maxx,
22-year-old Samantha
Krenitsky of Scranton loves to
frequent second-hand shops.
I think you should only
spend money on statement
pieces, so any place cheap I will
shop, she told the Weekender.
Feeling most comfortable
in jeans and a T-shirt or yoga
pants from Express, Samantha
also knows how to dress it up
for nights out with her friends.
See the many looks of Samantha
and learn a little more about this
weeks Style Pick.
WEEKENDER: How would
you describe your look?
SAMANTHA: I would say
my look is comfortable sexy.
Outts that you can piece
together to show off my assets
while still being extremely
comfortable.
WEEKENDER: What do
you own the most of?
SAMANTHA: I own tons
of v-neck T-shirts. I have about
20 black v-necks and around 30
white. They go with everything,
and I love the way they look.
WEEKENDER: What do
you feel sexiest in?
SAMANTHA: I feel sexy in
form-tting outts. My gure
is very curvy, so growing up, I
never did feel sexy in anything
that hugged my gure. Now I
accept and love my body, so I
like to wear clothes that show my
gure off.
WEEKENDER: Do you
have a go-to outft?
SAMANTHA: I have a
go-to going-out outt which
Style Pick:
Samantha
Krenitsky,
Scranton
is a black shirt with
black skirt and lots of
accessories. I go to this
because its never too
dressy, its comfortable, and I
can make it look however I want
with different jewelry.
WEEKENDER: Do you
have any fashion pet
peeves?
SAMANTHA: My biggest pet
peeve is when people try to dress
like the latest trend only because
everyones dressing like that.
Fashion is the one way we can
express ourselves, and I feel like
everyone should wear what their
style is, not what the magazines
say it is.
WEEKENDER: What is the
biggest mistake you think
people make when it comes
to fashion?
SAMANTHA: I think the
biggest mistake is wearing
clothes that dont t your body
right. I would love to see girls
that have a shape wear clothes
that show that off instead of
hiding it.
WEEKENDER: When did
you start to develop your
sense of fashion?
SAMANTHA: I would say I
started developing my sense of
fashion around two years ago. I
would look at Kim Kardashian,
Kat Von D, and Dita Von Teese.
Even though their styles are
different, they all helped me
develop the style that I call my
own.
WEEKENDER: Do
you have a favorite local
boutique?
SAMANTHA: I really like
The Vault in Dickson City. They
have some awesome jeans for
going out. My friend gets some
awesome accessories from
Duffys in Scranton.
WEEKENDER: Those
eyebrows! How do you get
them so perfect?
SAMANTHA: Its taken me
forever to get them like this. I
actually would just look at photos
of Megan Fox and try to get them
to look like hers. It takes lots of
eyebrow ller and tweezing.
WEEKENDER: What
fashion advice do you have
for women your age?
SAMANTHA: My advice for
girls my age would be to dress
sexy without going overboard.
Dress to impress yourself, not
someone else. Dont be afraid
if youre not a size zero to wear
clothes that show off your gure

THROUGH THE LOOKING
GLASS
The Ledges Hotel (120 Falls
Ave., Hawley) recently opened
its Glass Wine Bar & Bistro,
which is run by Grant Gen-
zlinger. Genzlinger and his
executive chef Ben Sutter, and
chef de cuisine Andy Goff,
offer small plates, snacks and
international cheeses, while
sommelier Leslie Britt hand-
picks an array of wines from
all over the world.
At Glass, we wanted it to
be fun, laid back, almost
whimsical with a little bit of
razzle dazzle, said Marla
Tremsky, general manager for
Glass and Ledges Hotel, in a
press release. The entire con-
cept, from service/menu/wine/
cocktail is approachable, yet
sophisticated.
We are serving delicious
multi-ethnic shared plates, from
veggie delights to perfectly
prepared beef tenderloin. At
Ledges we say, surround your-
self in natural beauty, and we
carry that philosophy into the
restaurant.
Glass is open Wednesday-
Sunday from 4-10 p.m. Call
570.226.1337 for info or reser-
vations. W
Send your food or drink
news to
nmascali@theweekender.com
or call 570.831.7322.
Free samples of Subarashii Kudamono Asian Pear
Wines will be available at the Wine & Spirits Premium
Collection Store in Hawley Saturday, July 23.

LEO (JULY 23-AUG. 22)
Being blamed for something youre not
actually responsible for can be a terrible
thing, especially when its not easy to
disprove. I wish you could just let this roll
off your back, but unfortunately in this
case, even if you can successfully not care,
the consequences arent so easily shed.
You know the truth, though, and eventually
that will win out just not as soon as
youd wish. Dont waste a lot of time being
indignant. Stay calm, be forgiving, and
maintain patience these are the keys to
your sanity right now. Dont lose them or
throw them away.
VIRGO (AUG. 23-SEPT. 22)
Everyones suffered some trauma from
painful events theyve experienced. Some,
of course, are worse than others, but you
can rest assured that virtually everyone
youve encountered (unless theyre very
new or lucky) has had to get over some-
thing (probably with varying degrees of
success), not just you. Its important that
you come to these scenarios with as little
of your own baggage as possible, so you
can better deal with theirs. How success-
fully you can release the negative feelings
associated with your own past is a factor in
how good your present experiences are
likely to be.
LIBRA(SEPT. 23-OCT. 22)
You cant often save someone from
themselves, its true, but that shouldnt
stop you from trying. If a friend is engaged
in self-destructive behavior, you should at
least attempt to intervene. Naturally, they
have to be a willing collaborator to truly
fix the situation, but knowing someones
keen to be there for them can go a long
way towards making them ready to try.
Dont let the messiness of the situation
or the potentially long road ahead keep
you from sincerely making the offer. Not
only will you be glad you did later, for
various reasons, but if you dont, its quite
likely to come back to bite you in the ass.
SCORPIO (OCT. 23-NOV. 21)
I admire your willingness to not throw in
the towel the second things get rough, but
before you commit to a long dreary slog of
hard work, honestly evaluate how much (or
how little) youve actually invested al-
ready, and the true potential of the sit-
uation is it really worth it? Sometimes
its best for all concerned if you just cut
things off and get a fresh start somewhere
else. Only you can tell which category this
scenario falls into a situation with tre-
mendous potential thats hit a rough patch,
or something thats just too much effort for
what youre likely to get out of it. Honestly
figuring that out is this weeks top priority.
SAGITTARIUS (NOV. 22-DEC. 21)
You Archers are rarely hoarders; in fact,
many of you relish casting off stuff from
your pasts. Throwing shit out can be joy-
fully freeing. However, there have been
times when youve regretted, later, some of
the things you ditched. Im not asking you
to start lining your rooms with piles of
junk, just in case, but evaluate how much
space such things are actually taking up
before you toss them in the trash. Can they
happily reside out of sight and out of the
way, in a box in your basement for a
while? If so, consider that alternative.
CAPRICORN(DEC. 22-JAN. 19)
Its one thing to keep kids in the dark or
on a need-to-know basis about certain
information; its quite another to treat
someone whos purportedly your equal this
way. Im not talking about the truly harm-
less white lies that keep many a relation-
ship afloat; I refer instead to truly decep-
tive behavior (sometimes simply by with-
holding information that would be impor-
tant to the person in question, perhaps
because you fear their reaction to it). Full
disclosure about everything can sink an
otherwise happy boat, as you know, but
thats not what were talking about here.
Important stuff needs to be said. Say it.
AQUARIUS (JAN. 20-FEB. 18)
Youve heard the expression, a bird in
the hand is worth two in the bush. The
idea is that if you decide to be greedy and
go for more than you have, you could end
up with nothing. Given the current state of
affairs, you should focus on being content
with what youve got, if its enough to get
by (financially, emotionally, etc) for now,
instead of actively pursuing more, which
could get you in trouble you cant really
afford. Chill out and focus on the amazing
abundance in your life (its there, if you
choose to notice it), instead of obsessing
about whatevers missing.
PISCES (FEB. 19-MARCH20)
People worry about the most absurd shit.
It may shock you sometimes, the things
you do that offend someones sensibilities,
or make them uncomfortable. Youre right
and theyre wrong; these things really
dont matter in the grand scheme of things.
However, they do appear to matter to them.
Since you actually dont care that much
one way or another, humor them, no matter
how silly or pointless it seems. This will
go a long way towards making your life
easier and happier; as its really no big deal
to you, I cant imagine why you wouldnt.
ARIES (MARCH21-APRIL19)
Youre not a grudge-holder, generally.
When you have something to say, you say
it then you move on, and usually forget
all about it. Thats just fantastic. However,
other people arent so good at getting
things off their chests. They can hang onto
things forever, things you wouldnt waste
more than a day or three thinking about
and dealing with. That means they can
really catch you off guard when they final-
ly reveal (probably through roundabout,
passive-aggressive means) that theyre still
pissed off about that thing that happened
last month or last year. Try not to get too
vexed about how silly they are for going
there, after all this time. That wont help.
Pretend this thing just happened yesterday,
for the sake of keeping the peace, and
rectify the situation.
TAURUS (APRIL 20-MAY 20)
Some things are worth saving; you rec-
ognize that even if they have no value (or
even negative value) now, they may prove
quite worthwhile later, and youll be glad
you tucked them away in an attic for a time
when you might want to see them again.
However, you Bulls can take this to ex-
tremes, and end up with cluttered lives
and/or living spaces. That suits you right
down to the ground, but isnt necessarily
so nice for anyone who shares your life or
home. Being fair about the situation will
probably mean making some concessions
and letting go of stuff youd rather not.
However, unless youre willing to let go of
your loved one, instead, Id suggest you do
so without complaint.
GEMINI (MAY 21-JUNE 20)
It can take some people ages to fully
acknowledge and admit to their desires,
particularly if theyre unconventional.
Owning that theyre attracted to fat, old
people, for example, isnt something peo-
ple can usually be open about early in their
lives. So they go through the motions
pretending to want a skinny young thing,
because thats what theyre supposed to
want. Naturally, this never ends particular-
ly well. You Geminis, who so often have
paradoxically conflicting desires, are espe-
cially susceptible to this self-deception. Is
that whats going on here? When will you
admit to and pursue what you really
want? Lets just hope that by then its not
too late.
CANCER (JUNE 21-JULY 22)
What you think you know about some-
one may be so far off base its on another
planet. Sometimes your knowledge is
based on assumptions you shouldnt have
made; occasionally, its the result of out-
right lies youve been told. Regardless,
when the truth comes out, its liable to be
shocking. The more quickly you can get
over your surprise and react from a con-
scious, thoughtful place, the less potential-
ly messy and hurtful this situation will be.
If you think youre going to flip out, ex-
cuse yourself until you have a chance to
chill out for everyones sake. W

SCRANTON Once
again, the annual Scranton
stop of the Vans Warped
Tour was hotter than ever,
but at least this year were
not just talking about tem-
perature.
If we can toot our own
horn for a minute, the
Weekender Party Deck near
the lawn was really a place
to be Thursday, July 14,
with autograph signings from
Miss May I, Dance Gavin
Dance and locals Motionless
in White, whose line began
to form a good hour before
it was scheduled to appear.
Plus we had great acoustic
performances from Terrible
Things, Kyle Demko of Al-
ways Undecided, a lively set
from MC Lars and Weerd
Science, Street Dogs, Every
Avenue and Shut Up &
Deal.
While these aforemen-
tioned performances were
fantastic, the homerun of the
day came from D.R.U.G.S.,
which did an autograph
signing and then a kick-ass
three-song set before a fre-
netic crowd just as the sun
started to set.
Seeing firsthand how
D.R.U.G.S. and lead singer
Craig Owens interacted with
fans not only while per-
forming but as they were
heading backstage afterward
really drove home the
spirit of Warped.
From tour bands doing
signings and running their
merch tents to seeing the
musicians catching some of
their tourmates sets and
doing exclusive shows like
we had on our deck, Warped
gives fans a one-of-a-kind
experience no other concert
can provide.
And thats why we, as
Weekender staffers and fans,
go back every year. See you
there in 2012! W
The wild world of Warped
By Weekender Staff
D.R.U.G.S. gets ready to perform on the Weekender Party Deck at the Vans Warped
Tour Thursday, July 14.
Following D.R.U.G.S. autograph signing, fans wait for
the band to perform on the Weekender Party Deck.
Hayley Williams of Paramore performs on the main
stage last week at the festival.
Singer Chris Cerulli performs with Motionless In White on the Ernie Ball Stage at

sorry mom&dad
By Justin Brown
Weekender Correspondent
D
ear Mom & Dad,
Remember when you
called me at school to tell
me you put my childhood dog to
sleep? I do!
I have some good news!
Mom shared over a phone call.
Blah! Blah! Blah! is what I
heard follow.
I also have some bad news!
Mom stressed. We had to put
the dog down. Im sorry.
What? When? I shouted in
disbelief that you guys wouldnt
call and tell me beforehand.
Last month! Mom answered,
crying uncontrollably.
Are you f--king nuts? The dog
I got for my tenth birthday, you
put to sleep last month, and
youre just telling me now?
Your father didnt want to
upset you while you were at
school, Mom explained.
Naturally pissed off, I hung up
the phone immediately well,
after calling Mom a dog killer. I
was ready to change my cell
phone number so she could never
reach me again until I realized
my phone was in your name,
Dad.
Since I just received my check
from being on I Survived A
Japanese Game Show, I decided
to use that money and get myself
a new dog, a pimp-ass $2,500
English bulldog. As you now
know from raising my little four-
legged friend, I never got that
bulldog. I blame it on the alco-
hol.
One day my roommates girl-
friend and I were drinking by the
pool outside of my apartment.
She went inside to mix us new
drinks, and when she didnt re-
turn in due time, I decided to
check on her.
When I got inside she was
watching a clip online of some
woman defending an alleged sex
offender on the local news.
Thats my sister! she blurted
in disgust.
She then insisted she had to go
home to talk to her mom about it.
Since my roommate wasnt
home, I took her.
This is where you grew up? I
asked, as we entered a rundown
trailer park.
Before I knew it, I was drink-
ing with her neighbor that lived
in a bright blue trailer and ran a
puppy mill. The last thing I re-
member was puking in the ladys
bathroom sink and screaming
that I was craving Taco Bell.
The next morning I woke up in
my own bed with a baby Chihua-
hua staring me in the face. Ap-
parently, I was its new owner.
And apparently, I named him
Brody BBQ, like Brody Jenner,
the douche that came out of
Bruce Jenners vagina.
Love,
Justin W
What do you crave when
youre drunk? Tell Justin at

Bell when drunk
