‘Stereophonic’ review: Broadway play goes behind the music
Although “Stereophonic” is not a musical, it’s easy to get swept up by the terrific original rock songs that throb through it.  And as writer David Adjmi’s play, which opened Friday night at the John Golden Theatre, is set during the mid 1970s, Will Butler’s music sounds authentically of that edgier era. Almost eerily so. ...

The Mystery Woman at the Heart of an Unsolved Triple Murder
Photo Illustration by Erin O’Flynn/The Daily Beast/Getty Images; Courtesy of AuthorEighteen months before Tamerlan Tsarnaev and his brother carried out the Boston Marathon Bombing, Tamerlan murdered three young men in Waltham, Massachusetts on September 11, 2011. Tamerlan was a boxer, and his primary accomplice in the Waltham murders was a Chechen MMA fighter, Ibragim Todashev, he knew from the gym.Together they pistol-whipped, hogtied, and tortured Brendan Mess, Raphael Teken, and Erik Weissman, stole their money, and slit their throats. The evidence of their involvement in this horrific, dramatic, carefully plotted crime is overwhelming.The victims were marijuana dealers who had gathered to watch a Sunday night football game. Brendan Mess had a purple belt in jiu-jitsu, went to the same gym as Tamerlan and Ibragim, and rented the Waltham apartment where he and his two friends were killed. Raphael Teken also lived in Waltham, he came from an Israeli family and was the son of a local Jewish spiritual leader. The third victim, Erik Weissman, was a mild mannered cannabis connoisseur—and a friend of mine. Hibatalla K. Eltilib (“Hiba”) had been Brendan’s girlfriend. She left the state after a violent argument. Brendan told his friends she was gone for good. But Hiba returned to find the bodies the next day, leaving a trail of bloody footprints–and unnerving questions.Read more at The Daily Beast.

Meghan Markle Isn’t Alone: How the Super-Rich Fell in Love With Jam-Making
Charles McQuillan / GettyLord Anthony Ardee could tell Meghan Markle a thing or two about the fine art of making—and marketing—posh jam. Ardee is the 15th generation of his family to manage their estate, Kilruddery House near Dublin, Ireland. The house’s magnificent gardens, laid out in the 17th century, are home to a thriving farm shop, which has been selling jam and other preserves for several years.He told The Daily Beast: “Jam is not new, and we began making it for the same reason people have always made jam; a glut of fruit in the garden which needed to be preserved. We still use the traditional family recipes and make it all here in the house kitchen.”Ardee estimates that they make a few thousand pots a year, selling for between €5 ($5) and €8 ($8.50) a pot. Strawberry jam is the cheapest; their damson jam, made from the fruit of a single tree in the walled garden, typically commands a higher price. While this may qualify as a pretty penny in the wilds of Ireland, it’s unlikely to make much of a dent in the Sussex family’s monthly Montecito outgoings.Read more at The Daily Beast.
