Historical Lecture by
Richard N. Rosenfeld
of Rocky Neck
America’s Reign of Terror
The Untold Story of the 1790s
Richard Rosenfeld of Rocky Neck has written and commented extensively on the
Early American Republic, not only as author of his widely-acclaimed work, American
Aurora; A Democratic-Republican Returns (St. Martin’s Press, 1997) but also as a
commentator for National Public Radio’s “Morning Edition” and essayist for Harper’s
Magazine. This lecture will focus on a period (from 1798 to 1800) that Thomas
Jefferson called “a reign of witches.”
Tuesday, July 9th

Fred Bodin submits-
Last week Janet and I parked ourselves at the Madfish Sushi Bar. It had a view of our two professional sushi chefs and Smith Cove. Our appetizer was a dozen Pemaquid (ME) oysters, which were new to us. They get Chowhound Fred’s seal of approval. Excellent! The waitstaff gives you prompt service and coordinates seamlessly with the chefs.
These are two sushi rolls: the Rocky Neck (L) and the Parisienne (R). So delicious, and there’s so much to choose from.
Not exactly dessert, but better. This the the "Toro" Sashimi. They sear the edges with a torch. It literally melts in your mouth!

Omakase.
The greatest sushi chef in the history of sushi chefs will understand that you want him to create the most interesting, tasty, orgasmic presentation of sushi you’ve ever had the pleasure of eating.
Listen to me.
I’m not joking.
This is not hyperbole.
Orgasmic.
I have no idea how Jordan ended up at Madfish but every time he absolutely decimates my already high expectations.
Omakase.
Do it. Don’t question it. DONT order the safe tuna roll or California roll.
Omakase.
You’re Welcome.

Paula Tognarelli, the Executive Director of the Griffin Museum of Photography and Meg Birnbaum, Photography Atlelier Instructor, will talk about how the Photography Altelier Program has helped launch the careers of dozens of photographers over the last 13 years. Photography Atelier is a unique portfolio-building course for emerging to advanced photographers. In addition to guidance and support in the creation of a body of work, the class prepares artists to market, exhibit and present their work to professionals.
Paula and Meg will also answer questions from the audience about jurying, sequencing, group critiques and other photography-related issues.
n the Atelier, students may choose to photograph with digital media or film; use SLRs, plastic cameras, cell phones, and other methods for image capture and select from the range of options for image presentation. Instruction in the Atelier includes slide presentations and discussions which consider contemporary trends in photography as well as the history of photography. Assignments are designed to encourage experimentation in both subject matter and approach. Supportive group critiques help each participant create strong images as well as edit and sequence their work to produce cohesive portfolios. In addition, final formats such as photobooks, mixed and multi-media works and installations are encouraged.

Joe, just want to pass along to you The Weathervane’s featured clothing line for the July 4 week.
As we all know the best live lobsters in town can be found at Captain Joe and Sons. The Weathervane is featuring a different type of lobsters for the July 4 week. Shown in the photo is our line of lobster clothing for children, we have bibs, socks, tees, onesie, PJ sets, and of course lobsters plush, and for a sweet treat barley flavored lobster pops.
So start the day with a real lobster feast, and then bring some Weathervane Lobster Clothing home as a reminder of the week. Remember “Butter Me Up!” Gloucester

Two Killer Cigars From the Cuban Cigar Co., Rum From Ryan and Wood Distillery and a sail on the Thomas E Lannon. If you add all those up at full price it’s Like $80 but since we’re all friends everybody took some off and made it a killer diller deal. No better way to see Gloucester Harbor and Celebrate with friends.
Call Kay at the Lannon office 978-281-6634 to reserve your spot
They’re mom-jean cut offs.
Saw these at Nordstrom the other day.
What do they think you’re stupid or something? They have huge cargo container after huge cargo container ships loaded with excess Mom-jeans that noone will buy because they’re just so unflattering so they figure they’ll just lop off the bottoms and call them high-rise shorts thinking that you’ll fall for that? It’s felt out insulting.
Nordstrom- be better than this.
Fishing Report: 7-5-2013
I only got out fishing just one morning this past week (at Plum Island) so I don’t have a whole lot of intel to pass along. This is what I do know;
The Cape Ann fishing is settling in to its usual summer pattern with the best bite happening in the mornings. Gloucester Harbor continues to fish fairly good along the various beaches and a few anglers are taking some big fish outside the harbor at the Woe and groaner. Best bait continues to be live mac’s. Some big blues are also in the mix here and there but not big numbers as yet. Steve P and Brianmoc reported spotty action around fishtown and at Rockport, however Brian and buds had a few good mornings at Crane with one big striper pushing the tape beyond 45 inches. So plan on shifting gears to full on summer pattern; mornings with live bait or tossing plugs at the beaches.
The Merrimack and Joppa are running really stained and foul as last week’s torrents are flowing brown on the flats and at the mouth. We did manage a few dinks on the flats Tuesday but had our best luck running and gunning the beachfront with topwaters. A few guys were taking some quality fish drifting live or dead mac’s on the dropping tide at the mouth. I have also heard that the night shift anglers are starting to get some action at the tide top drifting eels on Joppa. So indeed the summer pattern is taking shape there as well. That’s all I got!
