The newest pub phenome-non is brewing in Bostonand it may roll right overdart leagues and trivianights.

Tonight, bar flies cangather at The Greatest Barand test their skills at achildhood favorite — skee-ball.

The bar will be home tothe first ever skee-ballleague in the Northeast.

“We are trying to getpeople to come out by do-ing a mini-tournament[tonight], and trying to getthem to see what thesenew machines are about,”said Duke DeVilling, vicepresident of SkeeNation’sNortheast operations.

When DeVilling, aNorth Carolina native,moved to Boston with hiswife, he wanted to bring apiece of his past with him.

DeVilling approachedowners of The Greatest Barand pitched the idea ofputting the machines inthe pub to get a leaguerolling — an activity thatbecame a huge hit in hishometown and surround-ing cities, he said.

Two weeks ago, the“Beer Ball” machines wereinstalled.

“What it has become inour other cities is some-thing to look forward toevery week,” said DeVilling.“You get to have a couplebeers, relax after work, butthere is also a competitivenature mixed in.”

Bar owner Peter Lucidosaid the machines are an

updated version of the nos-talgic childhood ones.

“They are more like abig pinball machine,” hesaid. “It has all the bellsand whistles and it chal-lenges you a little bit. It’skind of like mixing BeerPong with skee-ball.”

Lucido said already thegames have garnered moreattention on weeknights,but he expects it to in-crease more when tourna-ment time begins.

DeVilling said he antici-pates the trend traveling tosurrounding bars andcities, expanding theBoston league.

With the suicides of twobullied high school stu-dents in Massachusetts,the focus on anti-bullyingefforts thus far has been onchildren. But a group of ad-vocates have been trying toconvince state legislatorsto pass a bill that wouldgive a legal avenue for vic-tims of workplace bullies.The bill was the subject ofa recent State House hear-ing and members of theCommittee on Labor andWorkforce Developmentare currently examining it.

“Some of the most de-structive workplace bully-ing is of the covert variety,involving attempts to un-dermine someone’s workperformance and destroy[their] reputation,” saidDavid Yamada, a professorat Suffolk University whohelped author the bill.”

Advocates said that upto 59 percent of employeesdirectly experience work-place bullying.

Gregory Sorozan, coor-

dinator for the WorkplaceBullying Institute, said theeffort has gained momen-tum over the last year, go-ing from 23 supporterssigned up to more than400 this year.

Avenues in the work-place, like human re-sources personnel, don’tusually work to curb bully-ing, he said.

Valerie Cade, the authorof “Bully Free at Work,”said bullies grow up, buttheir characteristics don’t.

“For someone who hasbullying behavior, it’s ad-dictive, and they have tokeep feeding it,” she said.

Currently, 19 otherstates are reportedly con-sidering similar proposals.

The only way to achieveAmerican prosperity is tolook out for No. 1 andsquash your competition.

At least, that’s what JeffKreisler suggests in hissatirical book “Get RichCheating: The CrookedPath to Easy Street.”

From drug companykickbacks, to CEOs receiv-ing post-scandal bonuses,Kreisler says everyone doesit, so why shouldn’t you?

Kreisler will offer adviceabout his methods to ris-ing to the top at the ex-pense of others tonight inCambridge.

Although he takes acomedic jab at how Ameri-

“People lose sight of ourcommunity and social re-sponsibility. It becomesevery man for himselfrather than rising tides lift

all boats,” Kreisler said. “Idiscuss these topics, thenadd a d— joke.”

As part of the “ColbertReport”-style discussion,Kreisler will interview apanel of experts, includingHarvard Business ProfessorMichael Norton.

“Rationalization, justifi-cation — we have all sortsof words for it, whichspeaks to how common[cheating] really is,” Nor-ton said.

Norton suggests peopleoften convince themselvesthat cheating is warranted.

TSA plans to unroll nudity-free scanning software.

New software for screeningtravelers at U.S. airportswill do away with nakedimages, addressing a majorpublic concern, the Trans-portation Security Admin-istration said yesterday.

After complaints fromtravelers, the TSA earlierthis year began testing atfour airports software forthe full-body scanners thatinstead uses a generic bodyoutline and highlights thearea where any anomaly isdetected, eliminating actu-al images of passengers.

TSA has increasingly re-lied on the full-body scan-ners after a Nigerian manallegedly tried to detonatea bomb hidden in his un-derwear aboard a transat-lantic flight in December2009. The bomb failed tofully explode but set off arush to upgrade security to

detect explosives under-neath clothing.

Later this year, TSAplans to roll out a pilot pro-gram that will allow somefrequent fliers at four hubU.S. airports to go throughexpedited screening, an at-tempt to shift more towardassessing the risk of the in-dividual flier rather than aone-size fits all securitymodel. REUTERS

flavor, because it’s a slightlydifferent sound to the othervoices. It’s kind of, youknow, fun.You’ve done a great deal ofvoice work for animation.What about it appeals to youso much?Animation is very attractiveif you’re in my line of work,because you’re not limitedby your own physical ap-pearance, clearly. So youdon’t have to worry aboutyour physical limitations,

right down to the ex-tent of when you go

to work that day youdon’t have to shave.

You turn up looking like aslob and sound like an owl. Between acting, writing andhosting a late-night talkshow, your schedule must bea nightmare.It’s not that bad, really. I liveabout a 20-minute car ridefrom where I work, and thelate-night show takes me acouple of hours a day — andreally no more than that.

Q&A

Will “The Late Late Show”

go on?

I don’t know. I think that’s afair question, and it’s some-thing I’ve been asking my-self recently. I mean, I’vebeen doing it since January2005, so I guess it will becoming up on seven years. Idon’t know how much I cando with it or where I’m go-

ing to take it. I’ll do it fora little while longer, but

I reallydon’t

knowhow it’s go-

ing to playout. I like keep-

ing it as loose aspossible.

5‘Horrible Bosses’ No onelikes working for a man

6‘Zookeeper’ Fans of KevinJames will likely enjoy his

romp around a Boston zoowhere talking animals give himdating advice.

7‘Transformers: Dark of the Moon’ Michael Bay

‘Tonya and Nancy: The Rock Opera’Tonight, 7:30 and 10 Oberon, 2 Arrow St.,Cambridge$25-$45, 866-811-4111www.cluboberon.com

The ’90s are back witha bang — or at leastthey are back with awhack of a policebaton to the knee. Ifyou grew up aroundthese parts, you proba-bly remember whereyou were when youheard abouthometown Olympicfigure skater NancyKerrigan getting bruta-lized by some thughired by Tonya Har-ding (her teammate onthe U.S. OlympicFigure Skating team).Now, more than 15years later, MichaelTeoli and ElizabethSearle have done whatany smart writer doeswhen dealing withtruth that is strangerthan fiction: write arock opera about it.

‘The Italian Girl in Algiers’Through July 31,Tsai Performance Center,685 Comm. Ave., Boston,$30-$50, 617-227-0442www.bostonmid

summeropera.org

This comic opera byRossini is full of light-hearted romantic rom-ping and confusion;but it’s not without so-cial criticism, either —at one point the NorthAfrican king Mustafa istold that to honor theItalian noble order of“Pappataci,” “You must

eat, drink and sleep allyou like, and remainoblivious to anythingaround you.” We’lltake it!

‘The Autobiography ofNicolae Ceausescu’Sunday, 6:30 p.m.Paramount Theatre559 Washington St.,Boston, $5-$10, 617-824-8400www.artsemerson.org

This documentary isnot the actual autobi-ography of the Roman-ian communist dic-tator, but in another,more ironic sense, it is:It’s a compilation ofstate propaganda foot-age featuring Ceauses-cu giving speechesschmoozing with East-ern Bloc power. Refrai-ning from narration,the director lets thefootage speak foritself, painting apicture both ridiculousand haunting.

‘3000 Years and Life’Tuesday, 6 p.m.Fields Corner BranchLibrary, 1520 DorchesterAve., DorchesterFree, 617-436-2155www.bpl.org

This documentary tellsthe remarkable storyof a strike at WalpoleState Prison in the ear-ly ’70s, which led tothe inmates actuallyrunning the prison forseveral months. Someof the inmates whowere there will sharetheir stories in adiscussion after thefilm. They areprobably some very in-teresting stories, to saythe least.

Think of it as “BostonTheater Idol” or some-thing like that: Compa-ny One has challengeda bunch of localtheater companies towrite and perform ashort play for a cashprize and braggingrights. This is thefourth and final nightof presentations beforethe finals. Companiesare judged by both apanel and theaudience, so your votecounts! Unlike “Ameri-can Idol,” there are nostandard text-messag-ing rates that apply!

This Vermont-basedtraveling circusfeatures performersbetween the ages of10 and 18, but don’tlet their ages fool you— this is a full-fledgedcircus show. Backedby adult professionals,they do it all; high-wire, trapeze,juggling, clowningand more — all at ahectic performancepace. This summerthey’re performingmore than 70 showsin seven weeks! Nowthat’s death-defying.

the film, ‘The Autobiographyof Nicolae Ceausescu.’

CHRIS MCKENZIE

Some like it hot, andsome don’t — espe-cially in the summerswelter. There’s an-

other side to Boston’sbooming waterfront. Awayfrom the bustling SouthBoston end, the spot whereAragosta sits at the foot ofthe North End is a peacefulhaven.

Tucked into the cul-de-sac that houses the Fair-mont Battery Wharf,Aragosta took over thespot from Sensing, a gor-geous, modern restaurantthat hearkened back toFrench traditions whilepresenting itself in coolminimalism, with serious-ly good food. But it was

perhaps a little too airy forBoston tastes, which nevertire of the Mother Cuisine:Italian. So now, we say hel-lo to Aragosta — Italian forlobster.

Executive chef DavidDaniels (The Federalist, Top-per’s — The Wauwinet,Nantucket) sticks with clas-sics and, yes, there are dish-es that make use of the deli-cious crustacean, whether

it’s tucked inside ravioli orcombined with cannellonibeans and truffle oil on topof wafer-thin crostini.There’s no gimmick though

— just the simplicity of slic-ing burrata mozzarella,quartering succulent gold-en and red tomatoes anddrizzling the plate with

olive oil and sweet balsamicvinegar. A single potentbasil leaf renders that signa-ture kick to this classic sal-ad. Or, say, pairing a ore-

ganano-dusted halibut withrisotto and Cape Codeclams en brodo. Less is al-ways more satisfying.

Appetizers at Aragostarange from $9 to $16; en-trees range from $17 to $34.

Sure, Christina Perri’sdebut album “Love-strong” landed in thetop five of the Bill-

board charts the week it de-buted — but perhaps evenmore noteworthy for the24-year-old musician wasthe fact her double plat-inum first single “Jar OfHearts” was performed byLea Michele on the “PromQueen” episode of “Glee.”(Is there a bigger stamp ofhaving made it for musi-cians in our new pop cul-ture landscape? Probablynot.) So now that she’s over-taking the airwaves and TVsets, we had the tattooedsensation give us a little bitof background information.

Best piece of advice you’veever been given:You’re enough, just the wayyou are. Favorite dish to cook yourselfwhen you’re not in a rush: My favorite thing to make isa fruit salad. I use 13 differ-ent fruits and a melonballer, and I let it marinatein its amazing fruit juice de-liciousness. Yum!What is the most repetitivequestion you get asked on interviews? “Does the guy you wrote ‘Jarof Hearts’ about know it’sabout him?” The answer is

yes! And he thinks it’s cool.What reality show do you secretly want to be cast on?“The Jersey Shore”!

What celebrity did you have acrush on as a teen?Axl Rose and Johnny DeppWhat’s the last song youlistened to on repeat? “Flightless Bird, AmericanMouth” by Iron + Wine. You are trapped on a desertisland with a TV, a DVD playerand the complete series discs

of one television program.What is the program?“Full House.” Best/worst date?Best date: Dinner and livemusic. Worst date: No din-ner and a night club.

Get to know: Christina Perri

Yes, the guy she wrote ‘Jar ofHearts’ about knows it’s about him

She’d love to be on the ‘Shore’

Cancer June 21-July 22. Trying tohelp out another while at the sametime attempting to do your own jobis likely to turn out to be a bummerfor both of you, as you lose track ofwhich project you’re working on.

Leo July 23-Aug. 22. You’re notlikely to take kindly to those who op-pose your opinions or ideas. If this isthe case, you’re apt to turn yourback on some really good thinkingthat could help you out a lot.

Virgo Aug. 23-Sept. 22. Be verycareful about who you team upwith. If you link up with someonewho doesn’t operate with the samehigh standards as you, this personcould create trouble.

Libra Sept. 23-Oct. 23. Owing to aninclination to negatively judge peo-ple in advance, you could easilybegin a relationship thinking theworst of someone.

Scorpio Oct. 24-Nov. 22. Adoptingthe wrong attitude will defeat youright off the bat. All you’ll do is un-justly jaundice your view.

Sagittarius Nov. 23-Dec. 21. Just be-cause a friend of yours is in a moodthat makes him or her difficult to getalong with at this point in time,there’s no reason to shun this per-son altogether.

Capricorn Dec. 22-Jan. 19. Onceyou establish an objective, you’reapt be quite headstrong when goingafter it — which is well and good, aslong as you don’t carry it too far.

Aquarius Jan. 20-Feb. 19. Ifyou’re looking for some encourage-ment, don’t seek out the opinions ofsomeone who seldom endorses an-other person’s ideas. All you’ll get isa negative assessment.

Pisces Feb. 20-March 20. Be carefulabout borrowing money that youcould have trouble paying back, andavoid loaning out what you can’t af-ford to lose. In either case, it is likelyto be problematic for you.

Aries March 21-April 19. Your self-sufficient qualities might desert youand you could wrongfully dependon others to accomplish your aims.You won’t like what they do, andyou won’t relish the results.

Taurus April 20-May 20. Althoughyou’re usually pretty efficient, thiscould be one of those days wheneverything you do seems harder orcomes out all wrong.

Gemini May 21-June 20. Trying toohard to please someone will resultin no one having a good time. Relaxand let the chips fall where theymay. Even if things still don’t gowell, you’ll be able to laugh. BERNICE BEDE OSOL

As great as Adrian Gonza-lez has been, as impressiveas Josh Reddick haslooked, perhaps the finestfeel-good story in the RedSox’s lineup is the resur-gence of Jacoby Ellsbury.

The center fielder,whose 2010 was ruined bya spate of injuries, justmight be the hottest hitter

in an offense full of them.He’s batting .316 on theseason, with a career-high15 home runs.

Two of those came yes-terday during the Sox’s 4-0win over the lowly Orioles.No surprise there: Ellsburyis on a 29-game hittingstreak against Baltimore,with a .445 average, sixhomers and 20 RBIs duringthe span.

“He kind of put us onhis shoulders today,” man-ager Terry Francona said.“He does that from time totime.”

All but forgotten inspring training with the ar-rival of Carl Crawford, Ells-

bury looks poised to setfull-season career highs inevery major offensive category.

He’s within 30 runs of2008’s 98 and a half-dozenRBIs of 2009’s 60, and he’swell ahead of his previousfull-year bests in battingaverage, on-base percent-age, slugging percentage,OPS and home runs.

Ellsbury and the Sox,who’ve won four of five,have today off.

They’re back at FenwayPark for the first timesince July 10 tomorrow,when they host the SeattleMariners.

With three climbs of morethan 2,000 meters (6,562feet) and the highest-everTour de France finish at2,645 meters (8,678 feet)on the Galibier pass, alti-tude will be a deciding fac-tor in today’s 18th stage.

“Two thousand metersis the limit at which everyone of us is suddenly lack-ing oxygen,” Movistarteam director YvonLedanois said. “Some rid-ers handle it well, and oth-ers [handle it] far worse.”

With 2,000-meter finish-es so rare, there’s no realneed to prepare for the al-titude. But most con-tenders prepped speciallyfor today’s stage.

“Cadel [Evans] has goodreferences at altitude andhe’s always felt well in thehigh mountains, but weorganized two trainingcamps at altitude as soonas we discovered thecourse,” Evans’ team direc-tor, John Lelangue, said.

Evans — who sits sec-ond behind Thomas Voeck-ler — Alberto Contadorand Andy Schleck are gen-erally regarded as thethree favorites on today’sclimbs. REUTERS
