TIMES STAFF WRITER<br />
OXFORD — School Committee<br />
members signed off on a $14.7<br />
million draft budget Monday, Feb.<br />
23, the first step on the document’s<br />
ongoing journey to the<br />
Town Meeting floor in May.<br />
The budget, which officials<br />
characterized as “level-serviced,”<br />
features a 3.5-percent increase<br />
over FY09. It was reviewed by the<br />
Finance Committee Wednesday,<br />
Feb. 25, after the Webster Times’<br />
deadline.<br />

CALVARY GROUP<br />
PREPARES<br />
FOR FIRST-EVER<br />
MISSIONS TRIP<br />
BY PATRICK SKAHILL<br />
TIMES STAFF WRITER<br />
DUDLEY — For months, parishioners<br />
at the Calvary Assembly of God<br />
have been opening their arms to the<br />
community locally. Now, as volunteers<br />
gear up for the church’s first-ever overseas<br />
mission trip, organizers are hoping<br />
to transfer that spirit of selflessness<br />
to the world at large.<br />
From Thursday, April 30, to Monday,<br />
May 11, seven volunteers from<br />
Calvary’s Mens Group will embark on<br />
a trip to Glasgow, Scotland. There they<br />
will spearhead a number of renovation<br />
projects at Bridgeton Life Church, an<br />
inner-city parish located in the city’s<br />
somewhat troubled eastern end.<br />
All the projects will center on remodeling,<br />
repairing and beautifying the<br />
parish with the hopes that changes to<br />
the church’s inside will draw more<br />
parishioners into the church.<br />
According to Calvary Pastor Patrick<br />
O’Loughlin, Bridgeton Life has a number<br />
of rooms in need of serious work.<br />
During their trip, volunteers will<br />
strip wallpaper, plaster walls, paint<br />
rooms and work on carpeting.<br />
Bridgeton Life’s sound system also<br />
needs some work and the bathroom<br />
needs a substantial overhaul.<br />
Additionally, Calvary’s parishioners<br />

for the trip, which will renovate the Bridgeton Life Church in the inner city of Glasgow,<br />
Scotland.<br />
also hope to remodel a room for youth<br />
ministries at the parish.<br />
Thus far, Calvary raised in excess of<br />
$8,000 for the mission trip.<br />

Relay for Life of Auburn announces expansion plans<br />

OXFORD, MILLBURY, LEICESTER TO BE INCLUDED IN REGIONAL EVENT<br />
Due to an increase in participation<br />
from surrounding<br />
towns, the Relay for Life of<br />
Auburn recently announced<br />
it would expand to include<br />
the surrounding towns of<br />
Oxford, Millbury and<br />
Leicester. This is in the<br />
hopes that the event will<br />
inspire participants to<br />
donate funds for cancer<br />
research and also increase<br />
the popularity of the Relay.<br />
BY TERESA A. FRANCO<br />
STONEBRIDGE PRESS STAFF WRITER<br />
Citing increased participation<br />
from outside towns, the Relay for<br />
Life of Auburn recently announced<br />
it is looking to spread its wings further<br />
this year in hopes it will raise<br />
even more money in the fight<br />
against cancer.<br />
Local Relay for Life organizers<br />
are in the process of including the<br />
towns of Leicester, Oxford and<br />
Millbury to their coverage area for<br />
this year’s Relay, which will be held<br />
Friday, Sept. 11, and Saturday, Sept.<br />
12, at Lemansky Park in Auburn.<br />
As a result of including more<br />
towns, the name of the relay will be<br />
changed to “Relay for Life of<br />
Central South County.”<br />
Relay for Life of Auburn co-<br />
Chairman Steven Gallant, one of<br />
the organizers who motivated the<br />
expansion, said that at last year’s<br />
Relay for Life, out of the 350 participants,<br />
only 155 were from Auburn<br />
–– the rest were from outside towns.<br />
Gallant said he thinks that<br />
including the other towns will generate<br />
more revenue. He said for<br />
each of the Relay’s five years of<br />

A move to ‘restore public trust’<br />
STATE LAWMAKERS PASS ETHICS REFORM RULE<br />
BY PATRICK SKAHILL<br />
TIMES STAFF WRITER<br />
Lawmakers in the Massachusetts House of<br />
Representatives passed a broad rules reform package,<br />
Thursday, Feb. 12, aimed at paving the way for<br />
what they characterize as a “more transparent”<br />
upcoming legislative session.<br />
“We are entering a session where the need to<br />
restore public trust is, and should be, every legislators’<br />
number one priority,” said State Rep. Paul<br />
Kujawski, D-Webster. “We have to do our best to be<br />
transparent.”<br />
“The focus right now is reform,”<br />
agreed State Rep. Geraldo Alicea, D-<br />
Charlton. “There have been some<br />
concerns from many of the constituents<br />
that [the House] hasn’t<br />
been as transparent as it should be<br />
… so that’s been the focus with the<br />
new Speaker.”<br />
Adopted by the House earlier this<br />
month, the rules package targets<br />
Webster recycling rate among best in state<br />
BY PATRICK SKAHILL<br />
TIMES STAFF WRITER<br />
WEBSTER — Despite a widespread<br />
downturn in the national<br />
and international recycling market,<br />
Webster residents continue to do<br />
their part in keeping<br />
Massachusetts green.<br />
Last week, the Webster Recycling<br />
Commission announced record<br />
recycling rates at the Webster<br />
Transfer Station, reporting 264.83<br />
tons of trash and 252.15 tons of<br />
recyclables ran through the facility<br />
in the month of December.<br />
“This near 50 percent recycling<br />
Kujawski<br />
Turn To TRUST, page 16<br />
rate is one of the best in the<br />
state, and we are very proud<br />
of the citizens who have<br />
made the effort to separate<br />
recyclables from their<br />
trash,” said Webster<br />
Recycling Commission<br />
Secretary Elizabeth<br />
Procter-Gray. “Thank<br />
you to the citizens and to<br />
Little River Recycling for<br />
helping to keep Webster<br />
green.”<br />
According to the commission,<br />
Little River took over the transfer<br />
station in December 2007. All residents<br />
of Webster are able to<br />
use the facility, which<br />
currently charges no fee<br />
for the disposal of<br />
recyclable goods.<br />
With market<br />
prices for recyclables<br />
rapidly<br />
falling, however,<br />
Proctor-Gray said it<br />
was “understandable”<br />
that this process may not<br />
continue indefinitely.<br />

District to address dropout rate<br />
BY PATRICK SKAHILL<br />
TIMES STAFF WRITER<br />
DUDLEY — The owners of Oxford-based<br />
Greenpath Transcripts, Amy Resnick and<br />
Jason Howard, are focused on service.<br />
During the day, they transcribe audio and<br />
video for an impressive number of clients,<br />
including notable authors Kathleen Adams,<br />
Dr. David Van Nuys and Marsha Scarbrough.<br />
“We understand our clients’ need for translating<br />
the spoken word to the written word,”<br />
said Howard. “Much of our work comes from<br />
capturing interviews, lectures, book projects,<br />
oral histories, focus groups, and dissertations.”<br />
Because both Resnick and Howard feel it’s<br />
important to give back to their community,<br />
they looked on Craig’s list and found a posted<br />
plea for volunteers at the Community Cat<br />
Connection (CCC). So on the weekends, you<br />
can find these two small business partners<br />

WEBSTER — Officials earlier this month told<br />
School Committee members they are continuing<br />
work aimed at combating a 20.8-percent dropout<br />
rate at Bartlett Jr./Sr. High School — an<br />
announcement following state reports chronicling<br />
rising dropout rates throughout Worcester<br />
County.<br />
According to Principal Michael Hackenson,<br />
Bartlett reported a 72.7-percent graduation rate<br />
for the 2007-2008 school year.<br />
This number, however, does not account for a<br />
fifth year typically factored into the data, which<br />
includes students held back and those obtaining<br />
GEDs.<br />
Such numbers presumably will boost the<br />
graduation rate by several percentage points,<br />
school officials said.<br />
Hackenson did not pull punches as he<br />
explained the numbers to School Committee<br />
members Tuesday, Feb. 10, saying the district<br />
needs to “look at our own resources and think<br />
how we can better teach those kids” who are not<br />
obtaining diplomas.<br />
“Those [dropout] numbers are real,”<br />
Hackenson said. “We were able to download<br />
from the DOE [Department of Education] every<br />
single one of those kids to find out where they<br />
went and why.”<br />
Some students leave to enter the work force,<br />
he said, while others get out of school due to<br />
early pregnancies or run-ins with the law.<br />
Many, however, just leave because they lose<br />
interest.<br />
This cohort of students usually departs during<br />
or after their junior year and Hackenson<br />
said staffers at Bartlett are working hard to<br />
increase retention rates in this subgroup.<br />
One program, “Virtual High School,” should<br />
help boost retention rates, he said.<br />
Virtual High School is expected to launch during<br />
the 2009-2010 school year and will include<br />
more than 100 courses — all of which will go<br />
toward credits at Bartlett.<br />
According to Superintendent Gregory Ciardi,<br />
everything from Caribbean Art History to business<br />
and personal law, advanced placement<br />
courses and foreign languages will be offered.<br />
“We’re excited about this and we think it may<br />
be an opportunity for kids who are on the edge<br />
and thinking, ‘Is there anything at that school<br />
for me?’” Ciardi said.<br />
School Committee members raised concerns<br />
as to whether or not poor performance on the<br />
MCAS was the tipping point for these “on the<br />
edge” students, but Hackenson said many of the<br />
students dropping out had passed the state-mandated<br />
test.<br />
Ciardi said this brought administrators’<br />
thoughts back around to how grading was being<br />
done at the school and said teachers at Bartlett<br />
need to re-examine how to strike the appropriate<br />
balance between “too easy” and “too tough.”<br />
“Somewhere between those two extremes is<br />
the right balance point and I think that the faculty<br />
at that high school needs to have that conversation,”<br />
he said. “Because if the balance<br />
point now is at a point where 20 percent of the<br />
students feel that they are in a hole that is too<br />
deep and they can’t get out of it, then a conversation<br />
has to take place about what we can do to<br />
support those kids who haven’t figured it out yet<br />
that, ‘I’ve got to [graduate] — and not every kid<br />
figures that out at the same time.”<br />
School Committee member Martina Gorski-<br />
Strong agreed, saying the school must also make<br />
an effort to form positive adult connections with<br />
at-risk students — connection which will hopefully<br />
bind them more strongly to the school and<br />
see them through until graduation.<br />
Chairman Michael Makara echoed this sentiment<br />
and expressed his hopes that the Virtual<br />
High School, alongside possible night classes<br />

cat shelter in Webster. They work hard to<br />
make sure cages provide a comfortable temporary<br />
shelter for cats abandoned in foreclosed<br />
homes.<br />
“It’s harder than ever to find people to volunteer,”<br />
said Dorothy Millhofer, CCC volunteer<br />
coordinator. “These kind souls are the<br />
heart of our all-volunteer shelter.”<br />
With the help of Oxford Animal Control,<br />
CCC recently rescued two abandoned cats<br />
from a Norwood Court foreclosed home.<br />
“These two cats were waiting on the stoop for<br />
their family to return and feed them,” said<br />
Millhofer. “It was heartbreaking to think<br />
that the owners just left them behind … We<br />
particularly need responsible volunteers to<br />
help clean the cages on Saturday morning<br />
and to fill-in when regular volunteers are<br />
sick or one vacation.”<br />

In other business, officials commended the<br />
staff at Park Avenue Elementary School for<br />
their quick response to a power outage earlier<br />
this month.<br />
The outage, which occurred during the afternoon<br />
hours of Wednesday, Feb. 4, was caused by<br />
damage to an underground cable.<br />
School officials contacted National Grid about<br />
the problem and ultimately deployed an outside<br />
contractor to replace the damaged line the following<br />
day.<br />
Students were back in school by Friday of the<br />
same week.<br />
Assistant to the Superintendent for Business<br />
Ted Avlas praised building staffers for their<br />
quick response to the situation saying, “What<br />
could have been an extended interruption of<br />
education was handled in less than 36 hours,<br />
which I thought was amazing.”<br />
Avlas said he expects costs for the work to be<br />
“significant,” but covered by insurance. The district<br />
will, however, have to shell out for a $2,500<br />
deductible.<br />
Rather than push the make up day to the end<br />
of the year, Ciardi said students will go to class<br />
Friday, March 20, a date previously scheduled<br />
for professional development.<br />
School officials earlier this month also graciously<br />
accepted a generous $10,000 donation<br />
from local benefactor Marilyn Fels.<br />
Much like an identical gift given to the<br />
Dudley-Charlton Regional School District, Fels<br />
said the $10,000 could be used for arts, music and<br />
athletics at the school.<br />
Principals will submit proposals for use of the<br />
money in coming weeks.<br />

NEWS STAFF WRITER<br />
Editor’s Note: This is part one of a two-part<br />
interview with Worcester County Sheriff Guy<br />
Glodis. Check out next week’s Auburn <strong>News</strong> for<br />
the conclusion.<br />
Worcester County<br />
Sheriff Guy Glodis has<br />
been in the political arena<br />
THE for 14 years, but he is only<br />
40 years old as of<br />
WEBSTER Wednesday, Feb. 25.<br />
Glodis, a longtime<br />
TIMES Auburn resident, is celebrating<br />
his birthday with a<br />
INTERVIEW party Wednesday at the<br />
Hanover Theatre for the<br />
Performing Arts in<br />
Worcester. Many officials<br />
will be in attendance at the celebration,<br />
including U.S. Congressmen James P.<br />
McGovern, Worcester County District<br />
Attorney Joseph Early Jr. and Central Mass.<br />
AFL-CIO President Joseph Carlson.<br />
Glodis has devoted a substantial amount of<br />
time as sheriff to improving communities. He<br />
has saved towns and cities tremendous<br />
amounts of money by increasing the productivity<br />
of the community service programs,<br />
where inmates go out into the towns and perform<br />
community service projects. The program<br />
has completed projects such as painting<br />
for Auburn schools, construction of the<br />
Blackstone Town Hall, painting the Leicester<br />
Town Hall, work for Camp Laurelwood in<br />
Spencer, construction of the Charlton<br />
Historical Museum, floor tiling at <strong>Southbridge</strong><br />
High School and construction and painting for<br />
the Clara Barton Center in Oxford.<br />
Glodis’ latest project is installing a wind<br />
turbine at the jail in West Boylston, which is<br />
aiming to save the jail and surrounding towns<br />
money.<br />
Recently, the Auburn <strong>News</strong> sat down with<br />
Glodis to talk about the projects he has underway<br />
and about his career — and turning 40.<br />
Are you expecting a big turnout for<br />
your party?<br />
“Yeah, actually I’m going be 40 years old. To<br />
me, the milestone Wednesday night isn’t that<br />
I’m turning 40, it’s that I’ve been in the business<br />
for 14 years. It’s incredible because I got<br />
elected into the house in my mid-20s and then<br />
to the Senate. So, that’s really gone by fast. I<br />
really, really enjoy the job, it’s a fun job. It’s<br />
one of the few jobs you get paid to help people,<br />
that’s what I enjoy about it the most. Running<br />
a jail is a very, very challenging job. You don’t<br />
come to work and get a lot of good news. In<br />
the Senate it was all about good news. You’re<br />
opening up schools, opening up libraries,<br />
you’re finding housing for people, health care<br />
–– it’s all good news. In the jail, it’s a lot of<br />
negative. That took a lot of getting used to<br />
from really dealing with a lot of good news<br />
consistently to trying to correct a lot of bad<br />
news … But I enjoy it, I like it and I like a<br />

STONEBRIDGE PRESS STAFF WRITER<br />
Two area lawmakers have several interesting<br />
bills up their sleeves for this legislative session.<br />
Both state Sen. Stephen Brewer, D-Barre, and<br />
his colleague, state Rep. Geraldo Alicea, D-<br />
Charlton, have filed several bills this year as<br />
part of their legislative agenda. Most of the<br />
bills focus on public safety, improving the economic<br />
situation and several other initiatives.<br />
Two of Brewer’s bills are aimed at personal<br />
safety.<br />
One would modify the missing persons<br />
reporting system and was filed on behalf of the<br />
family of Molly Bish, according to a press<br />
release from the senator. The 16-year-old lifeguard<br />
was kidnapped and killed in 2000 while<br />
working at Comins Pond in Warren.<br />
Another of Brewer’s bills would require<br />
minors swimming at a state or town run camp<br />
to wear a floatation device. It would also<br />
require docks that extend beyond the swimming<br />
area to be enclosed. That bill, according<br />
to Brewer’s Senate office, was filed on behalf of<br />
the family of 4-year-old Christian Frechette,<br />
who drowned in 2007 while playing at a townrun<br />
camp on Cedar Lake in Sturbridge.<br />
Brewer said he is personally familiar with<br />
the issue because his brother, Max, drowned<br />
when he was just four years old at a Charlton<br />
pond.<br />
“If you save the life of a child, you save the<br />
world,” he said, quoting Magi Bish.<br />
Alicea, who represents a precinct in Oxford,<br />
is an advocate for<br />

challenge. I think at my age I should be challenged<br />
and I should be motivated and I’m both<br />
in this job.”<br />
We understand the Worcester County<br />
Jail has been doing many things to<br />
become more economically friendly.<br />
minors and senior citizens, and is keeping the<br />
focus on those topics this year, but is also filing<br />
bills to help deal with the brutal economy. One<br />
of the initiatives Alicea said he is sponsoring<br />
would address housing prices in an effort to<br />
make finding a home more affordable.<br />
“We need to make it more affordable for families<br />
to purchase a home,” he said.<br />
Another bill Alicea said he filed would protect<br />
consumers from predatory auto lenders<br />
who pledge to pay part of an owner’s bill, but<br />
the owner’s soon see their share increase. A<br />
<strong>Southbridge</strong> woman, he said, fell victim to the<br />
scam.<br />
“Some owners are not really aware [of this],”<br />
he said.<br />
Minors are also on his list of people to protect.<br />
He filed a bill to protect minors from teachers<br />
or other authority figures from seducing<br />
them into a sexual relationship.<br />
“There is a lot of interest [in the bill],” he<br />
said.<br />
<strong>News</strong>papers and taxpayers might be interested<br />
in another of Brewer’s bills — one that could<br />
strengthen the state’s Open Meeting Law.<br />
The current version of the law requires<br />
meetings of public bodies to be held in open<br />
session, but there are eight exceptions allowing<br />

“We’ve gone through a little bit of a metamorphism,<br />
change in our mission at the jail.<br />
Our original –– and it still is our main mission<br />
–– is the care, control, custody and the<br />
rehabilitation of inmates. That is has basically<br />
been our foundation and that’s our core<br />
mission. When I became sheriff, however, I<br />
put an additional mission of being more community<br />
orientated. We wanted to be a good<br />
community partner. We teamed up with a lot<br />
of police departments to help find grants ––<br />
we’ve got a mobile command vehicle that<br />
police and fire departments use throughout<br />
Worcester County. We have a senior triad program<br />
where we go into different council on<br />
aging [senior centers] and offer them free<br />
resources and free assistance and free help.<br />
And that was our mission three or four years<br />
ago. However, in the last six months with the<br />
real severe meltdown in our economy, our<br />
newest mission –– and we still have all of the<br />
above –– but now our other mission is to save<br />
money –– to save money for taxpayers.<br />
We’ve done that in different ways. One,<br />
we’ve had an energy audit at the jail. Two, we<br />
became more competitive with our bidding<br />
process to save money for taxpayers. Three,<br />
we’ve restructured the jail, eliminating different<br />
dual management positions and actually<br />
reducing our staff two months ago. The fourth<br />
thing we’ve done is expanded our community<br />
service programs. Where inmates go out into<br />
the towns like Spencer, Auburn and<br />
<strong>Southbridge</strong> and they perform community<br />
service projects in schools, non profits, little<br />
leagues, fire stations, police stations, beautification,<br />
restoration projects that has literally<br />
saved hundreds of thousands of dollars in<br />
local budgets and that’s something we’re very<br />
proud of. And the last thing we’ve done more<br />
recently is we’ve obtained a grant to put up a<br />
wind turbine at the jail.”<br />
How much progress has been made on<br />
the wind turbine project?<br />
“We just installed the 165-foot test tower on<br />
the grounds of the facility, which will basically<br />
gauge the wind speed, direction and turbulence<br />
of the air. But we’ve been told that this<br />
West Boylston facility would be a great host<br />
site for a wind turbine because it’s at an elevated<br />
level. So, what we plan on doing is having<br />
a wind turbine that’s expected to produce<br />
5.2 million kilowatts of electricity per year.<br />
That will be enough to cover all our electricity<br />
and utility costs at the jail, saving taxpayers<br />
about $750,000 a year. What we then intend to<br />
do, two years from now, is take it another step<br />
and install two more wind turbines to have a<br />
total of three. We’re planning on having a<br />
mini wind farm at the jail, not only to save<br />
electrical costs at the jail and our taxpayers,<br />
but more importantly to resell surplus electricity<br />
to neighboring host communities at<br />
retail value. Which, again, are ways we are<br />
trying now in our economic downturn on<br />
thinking not only how we can be a good community<br />
partner, but how can we save money<br />
in this cash-strapped time. And we’ve done it<br />
with restructuring, we’ve done with lowering<br />
our workers’ comp costs, we’ve done it with<br />
our community service programs and now<br />
we’re doing it up here with our wind turbine<br />
to greatly reduce and save $750,000 in electricity,<br />
and in the foreseeable future, to be able to<br />
sell that electricity back at wholesale costs.<br />
That’s our plan, at least.<br />
When I became sheriff, I was really committed<br />
to reinventing the image of the sheriff ’s<br />
office. It was really looked at as an antiquated,<br />
county jail and I wanted to reinvent it to a<br />
more proactive, modern, public agency committed<br />
to fighting crime, rehabilitating<br />
inmates and providing community services<br />
for the towns and cities of Worcester County.<br />
And I think we’ve had a lot of success in that.<br />
We’ve had several awards last year for innovation.<br />
For the first time in the history of the<br />
Worcester County Sheriff ’s Office we became<br />
accredited by the American Accreditation<br />
Association, which is a huge milestone. That<br />
means we have to meet certain standards in<br />
our day-to-day policies with the jail. We’ve<br />
been able to really, I think, bring a lot of<br />
progress to a jail that a lot of people thought<br />
five years ago wasn’t plausible to be accredited<br />
or to be a modern jail or to be a proactive<br />
community servant.”<br />

Lawmakers aim to take initiative in ’09<br />
ALICEA, BREWER WORKING ON BILLS<br />
matters to be discussed in executive session.<br />
The bill would create a new office within the<br />
Attorney General’s office that would investigate<br />
complaints. The local county District<br />
Attorney offices currently carry out the investigations.<br />
The bill would also require officials to allow<br />
the public to view e-mails and any communications<br />
involving a quorum of members.<br />
“Sunlight is the best disinfectant,” he said.<br />
“The fourth estate is the conduit for that. We<br />
need to have an open and transparent process.”<br />
Other topics are also on their agendas, both<br />
lawmakers said.<br />
Brewer said much of the session will be<br />
spent on dealing with the state’s budget crisis.<br />
Alicea and Brewer each said they want to focus<br />
on reforming the pension system for state<br />
employees.<br />
Alicea stressed the necessity of that effort.<br />
“A large portion of our budget goes to pension<br />
pay,” he said, adding some people who get<br />
them “probably have not worked for a long period<br />
of time.”<br />
Noting the slog it sometimes takes to push<br />
bills through, Brewer said he won’t give up.<br />
“We fight for the things we believe in,” he<br />
said.<br />

In an article entitled, “The biggest<br />

Company chosen to head library building project<br />
PHOTO OF THE WEEK<br />
NEW FACILITY WILL<br />
SEE MANY ‘GREEN’<br />
INITIATIVES<br />
BY JOY RICHARD<br />
TIMES STAFF WRITER<br />
DUDLEY — A work in progress<br />
since 1999, the new Pearle J.<br />
Crawford Memorial Library project<br />
is inching closer to completion, with<br />
the recent announcement that a company<br />
has been chosen to head the<br />
project.<br />
Strategic Building Solutions, of<br />
Old Saybrook, Conn., was chosen by<br />
the Library Building Committee to<br />
complete the work. The amount of<br />
the bid for the project has not been<br />
made public.<br />
The site of the facility will be<br />
moved from its original location, on 1<br />
Village St., to 40 Schofield Ave., the<br />
former home of Town Hall.<br />
The construction should begin for<br />
the new facility in early April. A tentative<br />
ceremony for the groundbreaking<br />
is being planned for<br />
Saturday, April 4.<br />
According to Library Director<br />
Jane Cain, the new building will be<br />
better suited for the town’s evergrowing<br />
population of more than<br />
10,000, as opposed to the 3,553 that<br />
were residents at the time that the<br />
library was first built in 1901. In the<br />
new facility, there will be much more<br />
room for the always-expanding collection<br />
of books and resources (more<br />
than 20,000), that the library has collected<br />
over time.<br />
The library will be helpful in serving<br />
the new, diverse needs of the<br />
community as far as technology goes<br />
as well as accommodating Mother<br />
Nature with improvements in the<br />
technology used for heating, cooling<br />
and lighting.<br />
These different ways of helping<br />
keep things in tune with the ecosystem<br />
are all certified as well as with<br />
all of the other aspects<br />
of the library by the<br />
Leadership in Energy<br />
and Environment<br />
Design (LEED) certification.<br />
“[The new library will<br />
be] one of the two facilities<br />
in the country to be<br />
LEED certified,” Cain<br />
said, adding that it is<br />
nothing new to be going<br />
the “green” route with<br />
new buildings — in<br />
fact, it is becoming the<br />
norm.<br />
Other environmentally<br />
friendly features<br />
include putting fewer<br />
impermeable surfaces<br />
on the site. This means<br />
that the amount of<br />
asphalt and concrete used will be<br />
much less than in any other complex<br />
around the area. This is better for the<br />
environment, due to the issue of<br />
runoff. The more asphalt and other<br />
impermeable surfaces, the more<br />
water that is going to runoff of the<br />
area. This causes erosion and possible<br />
flooding of surrounding roads<br />
and land. Taking the fact that they<br />
thought to fix this common issue<br />
ahead of time into thought, is a sign<br />
that even locally, people are starting<br />
to think more toward the benefiting<br />
the land and its ecosystems, as well<br />
as the town.<br />
The building itself will be one level<br />
spanning 16,750 square feet.<br />
Currently, costs for the facility are<br />
hovering around $6.7 million and<br />
construction is estimated at $5 million.<br />
Funding is in part being done by a<br />
grant given by the Webster Dudley<br />
Boys and Girls Club in an effort to<br />
see more teen involvement in the<br />
library. Cain said the library has “a<br />
good relationship with the Boys and<br />
Girls Club,” adding, “The teens will<br />
be asked what they want to see in the<br />
building to make it more suited for<br />

In April, Pearle J. Crawford Memorial Library officials hope<br />
to begin construction on a new library, a library that will<br />
become only one of two facilities in Massachusetts that<br />
have Leadership in Energy and Environment Design (LEED)<br />
certification.<br />
their needs.”<br />
The other kinds of funding for this<br />
project that are being looked into are<br />
appealing to the Federal Economic<br />
Stimulus Program. Along with the<br />
rest of the country, Dudley and its<br />
surrounding towns have been affected<br />
by the economic crunch and this<br />
stimulus money would be well used<br />
toward this project. The Library<br />
Building Committee has submitted<br />
this project to be considered for the<br />
federal program. This is in the hopes<br />
of receiving some of the billions of<br />
dollars that will be put in places for<br />
projects like this around the country.<br />
The proposed project meets two of<br />
the requirements that the program<br />
has — “shovel readiness” and a construction<br />
timeline of less than two<br />
years — which is a good sign in the<br />
hopes for being approved in the near<br />
future.<br />
A state grant has been issued to<br />
fund the construction as well for $2.3<br />
million, with an additional $1.4-million<br />
from a municipal debt exclusion;<br />
a $2 million donation from Mr. and<br />
Mrs. Hugh Crawford; and $1 million<br />
in privet and corporate donations.<br />
With an end to the project finally in<br />
sight for the library, people in town<br />
and employees of the library are<br />
excited to see this achievement for<br />
themselves and the environment<br />
come to light. “[The project] was a<br />
long time coming,” Cane said.<br />
“With the economy the way it is,<br />
everyone is saying it’s the perfect<br />
time to build,” said Library Building<br />
Committee Co-Chair Anne Marie<br />
Safaee in January. “Our timing is so<br />
fortunate … this is something we’ve<br />
been working on for so long — to see<br />
it come together … it’s wonderful.”<br />

LEARNING<br />
Women’s club<br />
scholarship<br />
to benefit<br />
two local<br />
students<br />
BY JOY RICHARD<br />
TIMES STAFF WRITER<br />
DUDLEY — The Dudley Women’s Club<br />
will offer graduating seniors of Shepherd<br />
Hill Regional High School and Bay Path<br />
Regional Vocational Technical High<br />
School the opportunity to be awarded for<br />
their involvement in the Dudley community<br />
with two scholarships.<br />
The deadline for application is March 6.<br />
Each scholarship will be for $500 and<br />
available applications are at the Pearle J.<br />
Crawford Memorial Library, 1 Village St.,<br />
Dudley, as well as the Town Clerk’s office,<br />
located on the second floor of the<br />
Municipal Complex, 71 W. Main Street,<br />
Dudley.<br />
The scholarships will be awarded at a<br />
Women’s Club banquet in May and the<br />
money will available to the students in<br />
January of 2010.<br />
Students applying for this award will be<br />
looked at in terms of their academic<br />
standing and having a great record of participation<br />
in the Dudley community over<br />
the course of their school careers.<br />
The Dudley Women’s Club, which was<br />
established last year off of the Oxford<br />
chapter, is part of the national General<br />
Federation of Women’s Clubs.<br />
Their main mission as a group is to<br />
serve the public. They emphasize the<br />
importance of literacy and learning in the<br />
projects that they take on. This new scholarship<br />
is the first major project of this<br />
kind for this chapter of the club.<br />
Chris Lavoie, who represents the Dudley<br />
chapter said, “Their main focus was to get<br />
this scholarship up and running,” adding<br />
that she is excited at how much people are<br />
giving to the cause and the group is aiming<br />
to either have more scholarships next<br />
year, or award a larger amount of money<br />
for this one.<br />
A goal that the club has for next year is<br />
to incorporate other towns being eligible<br />
to partake in this scholarship opportunity.<br />
“We don’t want students from the other<br />
schools in the region to feel left out,” she<br />
said. “With scholarships now becoming<br />
more and more necessary for students to<br />
go to the college of their choice, the club<br />
wants as many kids to get the chance as<br />
possible.”<br />
The money for the scholarship has been<br />
raised with various methods. Anytime<br />
there is a town event, such as the Tree<br />
Lighting in December, the club is there<br />
and takes donations. The response that<br />
the public has been very positive, Lavoie<br />
said.<br />
The largest fundraiser for the group at<br />
this point will be an upcoming fashion<br />
show and luncheon Sunday, March 15, at<br />
11 a.m. Lunch will be at 12 p.m. and the<br />
show at 1 p.m. It should all wrap up at<br />
around 2:30 p.m. Along with those two<br />
events there will be 20 different venders<br />
on site so the audience can shop after the<br />
show. Tickets are $25 and are available by<br />
calling the Dudley Women’s Club at 508-<br />

Webster resident agrees to take helm of Northbridge schools<br />
BY THOMAS MATTSON<br />
STONEBRIDGE PRESS STAFF WRITER<br />
NORTHBRIDGE — Susan Gorky, of Webster, an<br />
administrator in the Marlborough school district,<br />
has accepted the three-year position of superintendent<br />
for the Northbridge schools.<br />
In a move that surprised just about everybody,<br />
Susan Cote, of East Bridgewater and the School<br />
Committee’s first choice, declined the position.<br />
She cited contract negotiation problems as the<br />
reason.<br />
School Committee Chairwoman Mary Contino<br />
telephoned Cote Feb. 4 after the board interviewed<br />
the three finalists for the job, telling her she was<br />
the committee’s choice. One stipulation the<br />
School Committee inserted into the prerequisites<br />
was that Cote cease pursuing any possible opportunities<br />
as superintendent in another district. On<br />
Feb. 13, Cote called Interim School<br />
Superintendent Henry O’Donnell to say she was<br />
declining the offer. She is currently assistant<br />
superintendent of the East Bridgewater schools.<br />
Cote attended a Northbridge School Committee<br />
meeting Tuesday, Feb. 10, at which O’Donnell laid<br />
out a detailed map of the school system past, present<br />
and perhaps future.<br />
Several panelists who voted for Cote were also<br />
impressed with Gorky. A number of board members<br />
commented on the excellence of all three<br />
finalists. The other finalist was Kelly Clenchy, of<br />
the Orono, Maine regional district.<br />
After the final interviews, the School<br />
Committee held a lively discussion before the<br />
decisive vote. A non-binding vote conducted by<br />
the nine members gave four votes to Cote, three to<br />
Gorky and two to Clenchy. Several committee<br />
members said they were uncertain, having a hard<br />
time choosing among the candidates.<br />
When Cote received eight of the nine votes, the<br />
School Committee took the next step, making the<br />
vote unanimous. Several committee members<br />
found themselves in a quandary because they<br />
thought all three candidates were excellent.<br />
Some members who voted for Cote or Clenchy<br />
made positive comments about Gorky.<br />
Before the final vote, panelists explained their<br />
straw votes.<br />
“I chose Gorky,” said Susan Brouwer. “She fits<br />
in the best.”<br />
She said she thought both Gorky and Cote were<br />
focused on children: “I could support either lady.<br />
They’re outstanding.”<br />
“I was very impressed with what Gorky did<br />
with her district,” said Karen Kittredge.<br />
But she, too, found it hard to decide. “Gorky is<br />
big on planning and strong for her plans,” said<br />
Michael McGrath.<br />
“Eighty-five percent of the teachers [interviewed<br />
in Marlborough] said they wanted to be<br />
with her,” said Brouwer.<br />
Richard DeLuca seemed to imply that if Gorky<br />
had more central office experience, her other<br />
qualities might persuade him to vote for her.<br />
“Gorky does need a little more financial background,”<br />
Brouwer conceded.<br />
SUMMER START<br />
The new superintendent is expected to begin in<br />
Northbridge July 1. Gorky is currently the director<br />
of Institutional Advancement and Special<br />
Programs for Marlborough public schools.<br />
Bartlett Jr./Sr. High School Scholarship Opportunity<br />
The Rita Zelinski Gelinas Student and Alumni Scholarships for the study<br />
of math or science are now available through the Bartlett High School<br />
Guidance Department.<br />
Any Bartlett Alumnus who is or will be pursuing full-time graduate studies<br />
in math or science is welcome to apply for the Alumni Scholarship.<br />
Any present senior who attends Bartlett Jr. Sr. High School and is pursing<br />
a career in a science or mathematics discipline is also encouraged to apply<br />
for the Student Scholarship.<br />
Both applications are available in the Bartlett High School Guidance<br />
Office. Applications are due in the guidance department by Friday, March 13.<br />
In Memory of Cheryl Marier<br />
Before beginning her<br />
current assignment in<br />
August 2008, Gorky was<br />
principal of a number of<br />
schools, including East<br />
Main Street School in<br />
Spencer from 1982 to<br />
1985; Brookfield<br />
Elementary School from<br />
1985-1987; Francis Kane<br />
School in Marlborough<br />
from 1987 to 2001;<br />
Charles J. Jaworek<br />
School, also in<br />
Marlborough, from 2001-<br />
2004; Intermediate<br />
Donations may be made to the “Cheryl Marier Scholarship Fund.” The<br />
fund will benefit a student enrolled in the Licensed Practical Nursing<br />
Program at Bay Path Regional Vocational Technical High School in<br />
Charlton. Please send donations to Webster Federal Credit Union at #1<br />
North Main St., Webster MA 01570.<br />
Elementary School,<br />
from 2004-2008.<br />
Gorky noted Marlborough public schools have<br />
an enrollment of 4,597 housed in six buildings.<br />
The intermediate elementary school she headed<br />
over four years had an enrollment of 740 in grades<br />
4 and 5 and 120 staff members.<br />
Gorky received both her undergraduate degree<br />
— a bachelor of arts in elementary education, and<br />
a master of education degree in leadership and<br />
administration — at Worcester State College. She<br />
has a master’s degree plus 60 credits in continuing<br />
education, also from Worcester State College.<br />
She described her professional mission as to<br />
use “her skills in curriculum, instruction and<br />
professional development, leadership experience,<br />
participatory management style and creative abilities<br />
to bring excellence to district-wide educational<br />
programs and exemplary schools.”<br />
Gorky said it is her goal “to work in a district<br />
that will promote a collaborative environment<br />
where the family, school and community work<br />
together.”<br />
“Your focus on students is clear along with rigorous<br />
expectations for all learners,” she said to<br />
the committee. “The future of our children<br />
depends on what we set in motion today.”<br />
“I will maintain and develop Northbridge’s<br />
vision of excellence,” she said, “and I will clearly<br />
articulate and communicate that vision to the<br />
staffs, parents and community members.”<br />
OPENING STATEMENT<br />
Gorky<br />
In her opening statement to the committee, during<br />
the interviews Feb. 4, Gorky gave Northbridge<br />
good marks for its collaborative approach to education,<br />
in which family, school and community<br />
work together.<br />
“The future of our children depends on what<br />
we set in motion today,” she declared.<br />
She said every child’s education should be personalized.<br />
In a personal aside, Gorky said she<br />
almost came to Northbridge to accept her first job<br />
as a teacher at the Balmer School, but there were<br />
no jobs available, it turned out. She said she lived<br />
26 years in Oxford and recently moved to Webster.<br />
“I’m familiar with the needs of the local community,”<br />
she said. She noted she has had the experience<br />
of teaching, of being a principal and of<br />
directing programs.<br />
“I’m a teacher first,” she said. “My leadership<br />
style centers round what’s best for each and every<br />
child.”<br />
She described herself as a collaborative leader.<br />
She spoke of her strong interest in curriculum.<br />

She said she believes in creating a respectful climate.<br />
Moreover, she said, “All children deserve to be<br />
successful.”<br />
“Northbridge is a district on the move,”<br />
Gorky told the committee that working in a<br />
small community such as Northbridge “is really<br />
my dream.”<br />
Responding to a bevy of questions from committee<br />
members, Gorky said she is a strong proponent<br />
of “community-building.”<br />
She pointed out she has led a building committee<br />
and presided over reform —major change —<br />
in Marlborough.<br />
She acknowledged the community did not have<br />
a lot of trust in the system, so she engaged a team,<br />
working with administrators and supportive parents<br />
to improve the school.<br />
“We made changes in the climate in a short<br />
time,” Gorky said.<br />
Other support, she said, came from the school<br />
council, the PTO, business partners and the city<br />
council.<br />
“We built a true community,” she said.<br />
In another remark, Gorky said the Northbridge<br />
schools’ Special Education budget “is slightly disproportionate<br />
— a lot of money going to Special<br />
Education students. I believe in bringing back<br />
outsourced students to Northbridge schools.”<br />
She also said it should be a goal for all students<br />
to score “Proficient” on the MCAS tests.<br />
The needs of the gifted should also be met, she<br />
added.<br />
Gorky called technology an essential ingredient<br />
of the 21st century.<br />
DIGITAL LITERACY<br />
“It’s embedded in everything we do,” she said.<br />
“All teachers need to be digitally literate.<br />
Technology is a tool for learning.”<br />
On the issue of prioritizing needs, Gorky noted<br />
goals Northbridge has include a reduction in the<br />
size of its classes and the improvement of academic<br />
achievement.<br />
“We have to all know what our goals are,” she<br />
said.<br />
In regard to how she would relate to students<br />
from kindergarten through grade 12, Gorky said<br />
“With integrity.”<br />
Speaking of the financial situation<br />
Northbridge and other school systems find themselves<br />
in, Gorky said: “I think creatively the gap<br />
here can be closed. In other districts the gap is $3<br />
million or $4 million. I’ve been in the position of<br />
reforming several times.”<br />
She said she favors formation of a superintendent’s<br />
advisory committee and said she would<br />
work closely with the union.<br />
To another question, Gorky said: “We agree to<br />
disagree behind closed doors, but to have a unified<br />
front outside.”<br />
She said the schools need “to nurture improvement<br />
as well as celebration.”<br />
Henry O’Donnell, the interim superintendent,<br />
had served the district for 11 years, through 2005,<br />
then retired. Paul Soojian succeeded O’Donnell,<br />

Fair open to the public<br />
Nichols professor awarded<br />
for distinguished scholarship<br />
DUDLEY — Dr.<br />
Karen Sasha Tipper,<br />
Nichols College professor,<br />
has authored<br />
a transcription of<br />
Lady Jane Wilde’s<br />
letters to Fröken<br />
Lotten von Kræmer,<br />
1857-1885, published<br />
by the Edwin Mellen<br />
Press of Lewiston,<br />
N.Y.<br />
Courtesy photo For her dedicated<br />
Dr. Karen Sasha Tipper and distinguished<br />
scholarship, Dr.<br />
Tipper has been awarded “The Adèle Mellen<br />
Prize.”<br />
This book is the first of a multi-volume<br />
series focused on the letters of Oscar Wilde’s<br />
loving mother, Lady Jane Wilde. Lady Wilde<br />
was a fiery nationalist poet, a scholar, and a<br />
proponent of women’s education.<br />
Appendices in this volume include a brief<br />
life chronology of both Jane Wilde and<br />
Lotten von Kræmer and samples of her letters,<br />
which are housed in the National<br />
Library of Stockholm, Sweden.<br />
“It took great scholarly discipline and dedication<br />
for Dr. Tipper to publish this volume<br />
of 40 letters from Dublin-based Lady Wilde<br />
to her Swedish friend,” said Dr. Alan<br />
Reinhardt, Nichols College vice president<br />
for academic affairs and dean. “I am delighted<br />
that Dr. Tipper has focused her research<br />
on correspondence between two enlightened<br />
women who used their intellect to write and<br />
improve the social conditions of their time.”<br />
Dr. Tipper is professor and chair of<br />
English at Nichols College in Dudley. She<br />
has presented a number of papers on the<br />
Wilde family, has published articles on Oscar<br />
Wilde and Lady Jane Wilde in The Wildean.<br />
A Journal of Oscar Wilde Studies, and has<br />
published a definitive critical biography of<br />
Lady Jane Wilde.<br />
Dr. Tipper received an A.B. from Mount<br />
Holyoke College, an M.A. from Washington<br />
University, St. Louis, and a Ph.D from the<br />
University of Wisconsin, Madison. She has<br />
been a Visiting Scholar and Fellow at Lucy<br />
Cavendish College, Cambridge. She has<br />
three children: Geoffrey, Christopher, and<br />
Megan, and resides in Northborough with<br />
her husband, Don.<br />

Chamber seminar to shows how to<br />
tighten budget<br />
WEBSTER — Regardless of your product<br />
or service, sales are key. Making new ones<br />
and retaining existing ones is critical to the<br />
success of a business.<br />
The Webster Dudley Oxford Chamber of<br />
Commerce will hold another presentation in<br />
their Seminar Series Thursday, Feb. 26, when<br />
they present “Tighten Your Budget with<br />
eMarketing Tools” with guest speaker Shari<br />
Worthington, president of Telesian<br />
Technology, Inc.<br />
The program will take place from 12 to 2<br />

will be charged an additional $5.<br />
About the Program: The Internet has revolutionized<br />
communications and now provides<br />
extraordinarily cost-effective tools for<br />
reaching customers, prospects, and partners.<br />
But what tools are right? A Web site is the<br />
core of an e-marketing program and can be<br />
supplemented with a variety of other tools (enewsletters,<br />
natural search optimization, pay<br />
per click advertising, e-commerce).<br />
This seminar will help participants determine<br />
how much time, effort, and money you<br />
should invest in an e-marketing program.<br />
Participants will learn:<br />
• Prioritizing e-marketing goals.<br />
• Specific, cost-effective ways to drive more<br />
customers to your Web site.<br />
• Tips on natural search optimization —<br />
what works today?<br />
• Tips on pay-per-click advertising — will it<br />
work for you?<br />
• The seven deadly sins of web marketing.<br />

Lutheran and Methodist Churches<br />
plan joint Lenten services<br />
OXFORD — During the Lenten season,<br />
members of Zion Lutheran Church, 70 S.<br />
Main St., and members of the Oxford United<br />
Methodist Church, 465 Main St., will join<br />
together for a weeknight service.<br />
The Methodist Church begins the series on<br />
Ash Wednesday with services at both 1 and 7<br />
p.m. Similarly, the Lutheran Church will end<br />
the series on Good Friday with services at 1<br />
and 7 p.m.<br />
During the intervening weeks the two congregations<br />
will meet on Tuesday evenings for<br />
a soup supper at 6 p.m. and then a joint service<br />
at 7 p.m.<br />
The Methodist Church will host Tuesday<br />
March 3, 17, and 31.<br />
The Lutheran Church will host March 10<br />
and March 24.<br />
This is the second year of walking together<br />
during Lent. Both Pastor Andrew Simon of<br />
the Lutheran Church and Pastor Paula<br />
Fletcher of the Methodist Church have indicated<br />
that this Lenten partnership gives both<br />
congregations an opportunity to “make new<br />
friends in the faith, and grow spiritually<br />
through cooperative-shared worship.”<br />
The community is cordially invited to participate<br />
in both the weekly Lenten services<br />
and in the Tuesday evening soup suppers.<br />

Keep those<br />
submissions<br />
coming<br />
Acouple weeks ago, we<br />
announced that we here at<br />
the Webster Times will<br />
celebrate our 150th<br />
anniversary in March, and to help<br />
us celebrate, we are calling on the<br />
readers and advertisers to share<br />
your memories with us!<br />
A local newspaper does not put out<br />
a weekly newspaper for 150 consecutive<br />
years unless it has a solid support<br />
base behind it. This paper<br />
would not be what it is without all<br />
of you, and for that, you all have<br />
our eternal gratitude. We hope that<br />
we have been a great source of<br />
news and entertainment for you<br />
these past years.<br />
To recap our message from a couple<br />
weeks ago (and there will be many<br />
reminders in the weeks to come —<br />
don’t worry), our special edition,<br />
150th anniversary issue of the<br />
Webster Times will “hit the streets”<br />
Friday, March 20, and boy-oh-boy, do<br />
we have a special issue planned for<br />
you.<br />
We want nothing more than to spill<br />
all our secrets, but unfortunately,<br />
we cannot. However, we can tell you<br />
that it will be a one-of-a-kind keepsake<br />
edition you can hold onto. We<br />
know that’s vague, but that’s all we<br />
can give you. Sorry!<br />
Back to the mission at hand — the<br />
readers. Keep sending us your letters<br />
of congratulations, memories,<br />
stories and anecdotes about the<br />
paper. We want to run as many messages<br />
as we can in the anniversary<br />
edition.<br />
Now, to the nitty-gritty.<br />
E-mail submissions are preferred<br />
(at aminor@stonebridgepress.com),<br />
but you may also send us a legible<br />
handwritten note or typed letter via<br />
mail to The Webster Times, Attn:<br />
Adam Minor, 25 Elm St.,<br />
<strong>Southbridge</strong>, MA 01550. You may<br />
also fax us the note to 508-764-8015.<br />
Make sure the fax includes a return<br />
phone number for verification, and<br />
make sure it says “Webster Times”<br />
or “Adam Minor” on it so it gets to<br />
the right hands!<br />
For our advertisers, if you would<br />
like to share in our issue with a<br />
special advertisement, please contact<br />
our Advertising<br />
Remember that all decisions on<br />
whether or not to run a submission<br />
will rest with the editor. Also, try to<br />
limit submissions to 500 words or<br />
less, so others can make their voices<br />
heard, too!<br />
On a sadder note, this week, we say<br />
goodbye to our reporter of nearly<br />
two years, Patrick Skahill, as he is<br />
going off to new adventures. This<br />
week, we welcome a new reporter,<br />
Joy Richard, to the Webster Times<br />
team. We know you will make her<br />
feel most welcome.<br />
Thanks again, as always, for reading<br />
our newspaper, and as we look<br />
into the past for our upcoming<br />
anniversary issue, we also look to<br />
the future with a new reporter, and<br />
a renewed vigor to serve our readers<br />
with the best in local news coverage.<br />
SOUND OFF<br />
What happened to senior trip announcements?<br />
SOUND OFF:<br />
I have been traveling with the Dudley seniors<br />
for the past 12 years. The trips have been<br />
exceptional values. Now, someone at the<br />
Dudley Town Hall has destroyed all of the trip<br />
announcements, told citizens that these trips<br />
are no longer available — and to add insult to<br />
injury, they hand out copies of the Charlton<br />
Senior Center trips.<br />
I happen to know that the Dudley seniors<br />
travel group is alive and well. I am signed up<br />
for the two spring offerings. The first is on<br />
March 25. This is a trip to two casinos. The $30<br />
trip includes the breakfast buffet and a $10 bet<br />
‘Sexting’ is a dangerous new trend<br />
There are many methods of<br />
communication available<br />
to us these days. When<br />
used properly, they can be<br />
very beneficial to us. If used<br />
improperly, there can be severe<br />
consequences. I was recently<br />
asked to provide some insight on<br />
a new trend occurring among<br />
many teenagers.<br />
Something new many young people<br />
are choosing to engage in is an<br />
activity referred to as “sexting.”<br />
Many people, including parents,<br />
may not even be aware of what this<br />
disturbing act is. This practice<br />
involves people taking pictures (mostly<br />
through the use of cell phone cameras) of<br />
themselves or others in various states of<br />
undress and sending them to people by some<br />
electronic means. What may seem to be something<br />
intended for “fun” is truly a serious<br />
matter. Despite the fact there exists a compromising<br />
photo of you out for the world to see,<br />
criminal charges can be possible in many<br />
cases. If the subject of the photo is under the<br />
age of 18, they are considered to be a minor<br />
for legal purposes. Should these pictures<br />
include nudity in any form, they can be classified<br />
as obscene material depicting children.<br />
This can fall into several categories, including<br />
posing a child for sexual photographs,<br />
possession of child pornography, or dissemination<br />
of obscene matter to minors. Both the<br />

on the big wheel at Mohegan Sun as well as<br />
the dinner buffet and a $15 Keno bet at<br />
Foxwoods. Of course, the transportation and<br />
drivers tip are also included.<br />
On May 11 to 15, the trip to Niagara Falls<br />
and Toronto is $445. This includes transportation,<br />
all attractions, nice hotels, several meals<br />
and much more.<br />
Why would anyone in the Town Hall or senior<br />
center want to keep this information from<br />
the people of Dudley?<br />
A PERPLEXED DUDLEY SENIOR<br />
Drunk driver says lesson learned<br />
He may have since<br />
been released, but a<br />
week ago last<br />
Wednesday, Mark<br />
Provencal was laid up at<br />
UMass Medical Center in<br />
Worcester.<br />
Whether his time there is<br />
enough to open his eyes as to<br />
how lucky he really is — and<br />
the rest of us are, at that —<br />
remains to be seen.<br />
Provencal was on his way home from work<br />
Wednesday, Feb. 11. He didn’t go straight to his<br />
North Woodstock, Conn. home on English<br />
Neighborhood Road, though. He stopped off<br />
first for a drink.<br />
“Some people like an after-work smoke,”<br />
Provencal said in a telephone interview, presumably<br />
from his hospital room. “Me, I like to<br />
have a drink.”<br />
Apparently, so.<br />
According to the police log that recorded his<br />
subsequent accident that night, this was his<br />
fifth OUI charge. Provencal vigorously disputes<br />
that, though, instead blaming the cops.<br />
“That’s a bunch of [expletive deleted],” he<br />
said of the number of OUI charges listed in the<br />
log. “I don’t know where [the police officer]<br />
came up with that.<br />
“Somebody doesn’t like me at the police<br />
department.”<br />
Provencal mentioned a few officers by name,<br />
saying he’s familiar with some of them from<br />
the past.<br />
“I used to drink at Sonny’s a lot,” he said of<br />
the one-time popular watering hole for many a<br />
local. Sonny, by the way, has since passed away.<br />
At tops, Provencal said, he has been nabbed<br />
only three times for OUI. The last, he said, was<br />
15 years ago.<br />
“My wife and I are trying to figure it out,” he<br />
said of what he claims is erroneous information.<br />
“I’m going to say it’s been three times.”<br />
He pointed out he had also “beaten a few”<br />
raps in court.<br />
Back to that Wednesday night.<br />
Around 7:40 p.m., police responded to an<br />
accident on Lebanon Hill, which is how<br />
Provencal would have traveled on his way<br />
home. Although he wasn’t arrested, he was<br />
summonsed to court on charges of operating a<br />
motor vehicle under the influence of liquor<br />
(fifth offense), operating a motor vehicle with a<br />
suspended license (subsequent offense), not<br />
possessing a license and failing to wear a seatbelt.<br />
He was injured in the accident, and taken by<br />
ambulance to the hospital. Provencal said he<br />
broke his wrist and his right arm and fractured<br />
six ribs.<br />
“I had a couple beers,” Provencal conceded.<br />
“I wasn’t drunk. I wasn’t arrested.”<br />
He also took issue with the charge that he<br />
didn’t have a license.<br />
“That’s new to me,” he said. “I mean, it was<br />
right in my truck.”<br />
Provencal seemed more upset that the incident<br />
found its way into the local paper’s police<br />
logs.<br />
“Last June, I was on Lebanon Hill around 4<br />
a.m.,” he said. “I was on my way to Vermont<br />
for work. A deer ran out in front of me. When I<br />
avoided it, I hit a telephone pole. I was [taken<br />
by Life Flight] to the hospital.<br />
“If they put it in the paper this time, why<br />
BIRD’S<br />
NEST<br />
WALTER<br />
BIRD JR.<br />
didn’t they put that in?”<br />
For the record, Provencal<br />
maintains he wasn’t drinking<br />
at the time of that accident.<br />
“I don’t drink and drive,” he<br />
said. “I don’t drive drunk.”<br />
His record, he was told, suggests<br />
otherwise.<br />
“I mean, I don’t have a beer in<br />
the car with me when I’m driving,”<br />
he clarified.<br />
But, he was asked, you do get<br />
behind the wheel after drinking, right?<br />
“But I’m not drunk,” he replied.<br />
It was suggested to Provencal that while he<br />
claims to have fewer OUI busts than listed,<br />
even three would be too much.<br />
“Oh, yeah,” he agreed. “Definitely, it’s too<br />
much for somebody to get.”<br />
Well, then, he was asked, should he even be<br />
allowed to have a license or drive a car?<br />
“Well, yeah,” he said. “Listen, the first time<br />
was 38 years ago. The second was 22 years and<br />
the last was 15.”<br />
Whether that’s true or not is difficult to<br />
ascertain, because the OUI’s are spread out in<br />
Massachusetts and Connecticut. The officer<br />
who responded to last week’s incident could<br />
not be reached to shed any light on the matter.<br />
Provencal actually tried to put a positive<br />
spin on the accident.<br />
“The doctor said I was lucky to have the accident<br />
because I was in the process of having<br />
congestive heart failure for the second time in<br />
a month,” he said.<br />
Surgery, he said, was going to have to be<br />
done.<br />
That news raised an eyebrow at this address,<br />
the thinking being that heart failure might be<br />
a sign that it’s time to stop drinking. Which, by<br />
the way, is precisely what Provencal said he<br />
plans to do — if not by choice.<br />
“I can’t,” he said. “The doctor will not do the<br />
procedure on my heart unless I put in writing<br />
that I will not drink again.”<br />
But, it was suggested, that doesn’t guarantee<br />
he’ll never pick up a drink again, or worse, get<br />
behind the wheel of a car after drinking.<br />
“Not after all this,” he said. “I’ve never had<br />
heart failure before. And this accident, this<br />
was the worst pain I’ve ever had in my life.<br />
“Believe me, I can’t drink and drive, anymore.<br />
I really hurt myself here.”<br />
Was the accident a wake-up call?<br />
“A wake up call? Well,” he said, “it makes<br />
you think. Anything like that makes you<br />
think.”<br />
Provencal at least seemed to take some<br />
responsibility for this latest incident, saying,<br />
“When you’re wrong, you’re wrong.”<br />
Will he honestly never pick up an alcoholic<br />
drink again, or get behind the wheel of a car<br />
after drinking? That remains to be seen. His<br />
track record, at least according to police<br />
accounts, doesn’t give a lot of reason for optimism.<br />
For the safety of everyone else on the road,<br />
Provencal needs to know he is a dangerous<br />
presence behind the wheel — at least when he<br />
has been drinking, which appears to be a lot.<br />
Whether he knows that, here’s hoping he<br />
remembers his own words after he recovers<br />
from his injuries and from his heart troubles:<br />
“I’m 57. I’ve got a lot of things going for me<br />
besides a can of beer.”<br />
person sending the material as well<br />
as the person who receives the pictures<br />
can fit the criteria for criminal<br />
charges. All of these crimes are<br />
felonies in the Commonwealth of<br />
Massachusetts. They carry state<br />
prison terms and can seriously affect<br />
a person’s future.<br />
Taking the criminal aspect aside<br />
for a moment, it is important for people<br />
to think before they act out in any<br />
of these ways. Remember, the “www”<br />
before all computer sites stands for<br />
the “world wide web.” Once a photograph<br />
is sent out over the Internet, by<br />
telephone, or other electronic means,<br />
you have no control over where it can go from<br />
there. Consider it available for the world to<br />
see. People may be able to view these years<br />
later. This can have a serious impact on your<br />
career and your life in general. What may<br />
have been something that seemed funny at<br />
the time, cannot only be criminal, but may<br />
also damage you in ways you cannot imagine.<br />

AS YOU<br />

MARK<br />
ASHTON<br />
It is, after all, a simple matter of survival.<br />
In our home, we couldn’t possibly function<br />
without it. I for one would be lost. A dozen projects<br />
a day would never get done. We’d be forced<br />
to wander from room to<br />
room in search of the proper<br />
tool, implement, or accessory<br />
— and very likely we’d<br />
never find it.<br />
Without it, normal life (at<br />
home) would not be normal,<br />
things would surely grind to<br />
a halt, and a variety of<br />
everyday tasks would suddenly<br />
become insurmountable<br />
undertakings,<br />
Herculean household horrors,<br />
personalized Big Digs<br />
with Sisyphean (never-ending)<br />
conclusions.<br />
I’m talking about The<br />
Drawer, usually found in the<br />
kitchen, the one with the hammer and pliers<br />
and a couple of screwdrivers in it, the one with<br />
a slew of used-but-still-good batteries (all sizes),<br />
a couple of tape dispensers, leftover screws,<br />
nails, brads, pins, picture hanging hardware,<br />
and, oh yes, the scissors that actually work — on<br />
both paper and wire.<br />
I’ll admit that I’ve been accused (and frequently<br />
convicted) over the years of operating<br />
under the assumption that there’s “a place for<br />
everything — and everything’s all over the<br />
place,” but I can get away with that approach to<br />
life only in the cellar, aka the workshop, laundry<br />
room, furnace room, and auxiliary storage<br />
facility.<br />
Upstairs where we live, work, eat, sleep, and<br />
occasionally entertain guests and felines, it’s<br />
important to play by the rules. And the rules<br />
clearly state that since one of us is a pack rat,<br />
it’s up to the other one, the neatnik (aka Mrs.<br />
Monk) to keep things orderly, neat, and “put<br />
away.”<br />
Fortunately for the pack rat, “put away” can<br />
sometime mean simply “out of sight,” which is<br />
where The Drawer comes in. As the repository<br />
for everything useful on every household project<br />
from opening mail packages (there are razor<br />
blades and a box cutter in there) to performing<br />
emergency snowblower surgery (involving the<br />
replacement of “shear pins” and their accompanying<br />
collars and nuts), this is the “go-to”<br />
drawer when the neatnik goes to the pack rat for<br />
household project assistance. Hey, I was recently<br />
able to repair both our Miniature Christmas<br />
Train and Miniature Christmas Ice Pond with<br />
Skaters using only what’s found in The Drawer.<br />
Over the recent holidays, in fact, it occurred<br />
to me that I had to go to this special drawer several<br />
times a day, and that because it always<br />
seems to hold the tool or tape or jar of Mighty<br />
Mend-It that’s needed, it has become a favorite<br />
place — almost a little room unto itself. There<br />
are other drawers in the kitchen (and elsewhere<br />
in the house) that get opened so infrequently<br />
that it’s always a surprise to discover what’s in<br />
them (“Oh, so that’s where I left the autographed<br />
photo of Luis Tiant!”).<br />
Anyway, at some point in recent history, The<br />
Drawer was getting just a tad tight, and I was<br />
forced to take stock of what was in there, what<br />
needed to stay in there, and what might be<br />
moved to a secondary storage location. Would it<br />
surprise you to learn that our drawer had the<br />
tools previously mentioned in it in addition to<br />
all of the following? A battery tester, a carpenter’s<br />
pencil sharpener, glue sticks, a precision<br />
screwdriver set (of the size used in eyeglass<br />
repairs), a value pack of assorted household<br />
fasteners (cup hooks, push pins, thumb tacks,<br />
and plastic anchors), a couple of Sharpies (different<br />
colors), a gold leaf pen, rubber bands, a<br />
paint scraper, hand warmers (of the chemical<br />
variety), a medical thermometer (oral), one<br />
tube of Mighty Putty, one shoe lace (black), a<br />
roll of electrical tape, two tubes of lock deicer,<br />
assorted snippers and clippers, a spare set of<br />
car keys (for the wife’s car), some Tic Tacs, a<br />
three-speed pull-chain switch, a ball of twine<br />
(suitable for tomato stake tying), several keys<br />
on a chain (of unknown origin or use), a set of<br />
plastic vampire teeth, chocolate sunflower<br />
seeds, a 40-millimeter padlock (with keys), and a<br />
plastic kazoo. The other stuff in there is hardly<br />
worth mentioning.<br />
I bet YOU have a drawer just like this one at<br />
your home, full of odds and ends but necessary<br />
stuff, the stuff that keeps your household functioning<br />
and your projects (unlike the Big Dig)<br />
on schedule and on budget. If your drawer is<br />
somehow under-accessorized (perhaps yours is<br />
a new household), please call or write for<br />
detailed instructions (and a starter kit) on how<br />
to properly “stuff it” with appropriate stuff.<br />
My one fear is that OUR drawer may soon<br />
wear out from overuse. Its slide tracks may be<br />
nearing some pre-determined point of planned<br />
obsolescence (“Only 3,287,629 pulls per drawer,<br />
you know!”), but if that ever happens, I’ll simply<br />
replace them — perhaps with the tracks<br />
from some underused utensil holder right next<br />
door to The Drawer.<br />
I know just where to find the screwdrivers,<br />
hammer, pliers, and Mighty Putty to get the job<br />
done in a jiffy.<br />

VIEWPOINT<br />
Opportunity to redefine our culture<br />
KRISTAL<br />
KLEAR<br />
KRIS REARDON<br />
As President Barack Obama and members<br />
of Congress work out bailout plans<br />
and stimulus packages, we as American<br />
citizens are faced with a great deal of<br />
worry — and a great deal of opportunity.<br />
These times of economic hardships are<br />
difficult for nearly everyone on some level,<br />
whether it means a job lost, a small business<br />
closed, a house in danger of being<br />
foreclosed, or worry of something else.<br />
While the strain this places on families and<br />
the devastation it is causing so many cannot<br />
be underemphasized, we have the<br />
opportunity to reshape our American culture<br />
and redefine what it means to live in<br />
our country.<br />
Our society has become known for frivolous<br />
spending, an inundation of goods and<br />
products (only some of which are necessary), and large corporations<br />
that have spread throughout the world. In short,<br />
the United States has become the textbook definition for the<br />
term ‘consumer society.’<br />
In many ways, this is a good thing. It meant, for many<br />
years, that our economy was thriving, that we had a nation<br />
where a great majority of citizens were able to live well and<br />
with many things to improve their quality of life. But in<br />
recent years, many of the things in our lives haven’t been<br />
improving our quality of life. They’ve been doing just the<br />
opposite: making our lives more difficult and expensive, or<br />
harming us.<br />
While developing, creating, marketing, and selling any<br />
given product on the American market creates a number of<br />
much-needed jobs, when we have too many products on the<br />
market — and when they are marketed as being necessary<br />
for our happiness or success — then they become problematic.<br />
We might look at advertising on television or in print as<br />
silly or unable to influence us, but if a greater culture of<br />
advertising creates the illusion that we can somehow buy<br />
our happiness (even if we don’t acknowledge this consciously),<br />
then this begins to negatively affect our lives. Either we<br />
know we can’t buy happiness or love, and are frustrated<br />
because it seems like others can, or, we don’t quite acknowledge<br />
that — and then come to the slow realization that no<br />
amount of money, or number of things we buy, can truly<br />
make us live fulfilling lives.<br />
There aren’t many up sides to the current economic climate,<br />
but if there are any, perhaps one of them will be that<br />
we will become more conservative spenders as Americans<br />
— and come to the type of full realization about not being<br />
able to buy our happiness that only refusing to spend excessively<br />
can bring.<br />
If we don’t need to worry so much about buying brandname<br />
clothing, for example, and realize that most of us have<br />
more clothing than we need, then we’ll save money. And<br />
we’ll save the time that it takes to stress out and consider<br />
purchases and how to finance them. We’ll have a little more<br />
time on our hands, even if we don’t save a ton of money<br />
because the money we used to spend on things we didn’t<br />
need now needs to be spent on groceries.<br />
And with that time, we’ll have the opportunity to do<br />
things we usually push aside: a long conversation with a<br />
good friend, or an afternoon spent with the family. In our<br />
culture, free time is so rare that it is sometimes worth more<br />
than almost any amount of money.<br />
And we can reconnect with the generations of our families<br />
and communities who lived through tough economic<br />
times before and know how to tighten their belts. They are<br />
sources of knowledge and information that we can rely on<br />
in times like these.<br />
Not being able to buy all the things we’d like is frustrating<br />
and depressing. And there are many families who aren’t<br />
able to buy the things they need, which is much more than<br />
frustrating and depressing.<br />
But for a large group of Americans — who may have lost<br />
money but aren’t losing their homes and can still afford to<br />
buy food and basic necessities — there is a great opportunity<br />
to redefine American culture and reject the notion that to<br />
be a successful nation, we need to live wholly and completely<br />
within a society of excess and consumerism.<br />
After all, our nation was not founded by corporations but<br />
by a culture of patriotism which resulted in men and<br />
women developing frugality out of necessity, a virtue of<br />
sorts that made Ben Franklin: “Who is rich? He that is content.<br />
Who is that? Nobody.”<br />
By resisting the pull to continue to support and cultivate<br />
the notion that we must have things we don’t need in order<br />
to make us happy, we can perhaps prove Franklin wrong<br />
years after his time.<br />

Local men’s group prepping for Scotland missions trip<br />
CALVARY<br />
continued from page 1<br />
Officials say at least $3,000<br />
will go directly into projects<br />
at Bridgeton, with the possibility<br />
that even more will be<br />
donated.<br />
“Our goal is to bring in as<br />
much money as we can,”<br />
O’Loughlin said. “We told<br />
them that whatever you need<br />
us to do, we will do.”<br />
Planning for the Scottish<br />
missions trip began approximately<br />
a year ago and support<br />
for the project has rapidly<br />
ballooned.<br />
Harry Violette, an Oxford<br />
resident who will be going on<br />
the trip this spring, said the<br />
church undertook a number<br />
of fundraising initiatives<br />
including bake sales, pizza<br />
sales, and an upcoming Irish<br />
music and dance night scheduled<br />
for Friday, March 13,<br />
from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. at the<br />
church.<br />
Initially, the project started<br />
with seven volunteers, but<br />
two dropped out several<br />
months back.<br />
Recently, however, two<br />
more signed on for the trip<br />
and the church was able to<br />
book tickets on the same<br />
plane at lower rates, Violette<br />
said.<br />
Several of the volunteers<br />
going on the trip also have<br />
construction backgrounds<br />
and will be acting as the<br />
“point men” for the project,<br />
O’Loughlin said.<br />
For Violette, the Scottish<br />
missions trip will be his first<br />
time outside of the United<br />
States.<br />
He said he was excited to<br />
set foot in Europe, but said he<br />
more pumped up about the<br />
chance to help his brothers<br />
and sisters overseas.<br />
“For me, it’s about serving<br />
God,” Violette said. “[Years<br />
ago], I never dreamt I’d be<br />
doing [missions], but when<br />
God came into my life it<br />
became all about being able<br />
to help people.”<br />
“Everybody is stepping up<br />
and doing their part,” he<br />
added.<br />
O’Loughlin said he initially<br />
got interested in the<br />
Glasgow church project<br />
through a mutual friend,<br />
Pastor Paul Eulino.<br />
Originally<br />
from<br />
Connecticut, Eulino has<br />
served in overseas ministries<br />
for several years, but still has<br />
ties to a Manchester, Conn.-<br />
based ministry.<br />
O’Loughlin said Calvary<br />
has been using that ministry<br />
as the planner for several<br />
international fundraisers<br />
during the past several years.<br />
A while back the two met<br />
over lunch to discuss the<br />
Scotland project and interest<br />
among Calvary church members<br />
rapidly snowballed.<br />
“Our parishioners recognized<br />
that [giving] starts<br />
here, but it can happen in<br />
other places too,” O’Loughlin<br />
said.<br />
Tony Hamilton, another<br />
volunteer going on the trip,<br />
agreed, saying he is hopeful<br />
the mission trip will build a<br />
bridge between two churches<br />
separated by such vast distances.<br />
As Calvary’s first mission<br />
trip, Hamilton also hopes it<br />
sets a solid precedent for<br />
future overseas expeditions.<br />
“We’re hoping to be able to<br />
both encourage our church<br />
and encourage the church<br />
over in Scotland,” he said.<br />
“Hopefully this will kick off<br />
that we can do these types of<br />
trips — that [with work] the<br />
money is there.”<br />

‘Level-serviced’ budget poses no classroom cuts<br />
BUDGETcontinued from page 1<br />
Finance Committee, the document will come back to School<br />
Committee members who will be required to hold a public<br />
hearing on the document in the coming weeks.<br />
While school officials have repeatedly stressed this year’s<br />
budget is tight, Superintendent Ernie Boss acknowledged<br />
Monday night that the $14.7 million figure would be enough to<br />
keep the department driving along at it’s current level for the<br />
upcoming fiscal year.<br />
“This is the estimated [amount] for us to move the district<br />
in the direction we want to go in,” Boss said.<br />
School Committee Chairman Bill Spitz said he was hesitant<br />
to put his “name on anything that will put [the district] backwards”<br />
financially, but stressed this budget tentatively proposed<br />
no immediate classroom cuts.<br />
While state promises for educational funding have<br />
remained constant, Town Manager Joe Zeneski announced<br />
earlier this month that town funding for the school district<br />
would be cut by 3.75 percent.<br />
According to FY10 revenue projections, this reduction will<br />
slash the town’s school department appropriation by $249,385,<br />
scaling the total allocation from $6.65 million in FY09 to<br />
roughly $6.4 million in FY10.<br />
Town officials stressed, however, that this funding still<br />
exceeded the minimum local contribution mandated by the<br />
state.<br />
In other business, Spitz announced the search for a new<br />
superintendent in Oxford continues to progress. He said subcommittee<br />
search members are hopeful interviews for the<br />
position will start to line up in the coming weeks.<br />
Currently, the district has 18 applications for the job, which<br />
will open when Boss retires at the end of the current school<br />
year.<br />
“I’m very impressed with the array of candidates we have<br />
to choose from,” Spitz said.<br />
In district sports news, Boss happily announced a win for<br />
the second year cheerleaders at the Oxford Middle School,<br />
who recently cheered their way into first place during the<br />
“Blizzard Blitz” cheering tournament held at Shepherd Hill<br />
Regional High School.<br />
The middle school took the title by beating out 24 other<br />
teams in the competition.<br />
School Committee members also continued their “District<br />
Tours” Monday night, taking in the sights at Clara Barton<br />
during a walkthrough directed by School Principal Norman<br />
Yvon.<br />
Everything from the school’s incentive policies for good<br />
behavior to student classroom artwork was taken in by committee<br />
members.<br />
Yvon also brought the committee up to date on Clara<br />
Barton’s mission statements saying teachers and students<br />
have been working hard throughout the year on values such<br />
as responsibility and individuality.<br />
The mantra “I Believe in You” is prominently displayed in<br />
the school’s main hallway and Yvon said this message was<br />
one teachers were particularly focused on in 2009.<br />
“[The students] hear quite often that they can [achieve],<br />
because these kids really are something special,” Yvon said.<br />
Oxford Cable Access was on hand to televise the tour on<br />
local cable access Channel 11, which now airs School<br />
Committee meetings in Oxford.<br />
Following the tour, Spitz praised Yvon, saying the school<br />
was very well kept and adding he looked forward to taking<br />
another tour when Clara Barton was in session and bustling<br />
with young students.<br />
“The School Committee is very, very appreciative of the<br />
principal taking the time to let us tour … and again we were<br />
very, very pleased,” he said. “Thank you for bringing Clara<br />
Barton to the community.”<br />

Police to speedsters: Be ‘reasonable and calm’<br />
STOPS<br />
continued from page 1<br />
do to make the traffic stop go<br />
as smooth as possible and possibly<br />
allow you, the driver, to<br />
get off with “just a warning?”<br />
Last week, the Webster<br />
Times spoke with several area<br />
police chiefs about how to act<br />
during a traffic stop. Not surprisingly,<br />
cooperating with the<br />
officer and making no sudden<br />
motions topped all officers’<br />
lists, but officials also nearly<br />
universally said that what<br />
they most wanted citizens to<br />
understand is that for the<br />
police, every traffic stop is different,<br />
and officers never<br />
know what to expect.<br />
“As a driver, you know every<br />
time it’s a police officer, but he<br />
has no idea who he is stopping<br />
or who is in that car, especially<br />
if they have a driver’s history<br />
or criminal background,”<br />
said Oxford Police Chief<br />
Michael Boss.<br />
So here’s the brief lowdown<br />
on how to act when pulled<br />
over:<br />
• Pull over (to the right side<br />
of the road) as soon as it is<br />
safe to do so. Place your car in<br />
park. Always remember to signal<br />
as you change lanes.<br />
• Keep both hands on the<br />
wheel and visible. If it’s night,<br />
turn on your interior cab<br />
lights. Making the car more<br />
illuminated immediately puts<br />
an officer more at ease.<br />
• Open the car’s front driver<br />
and passenger windows.<br />
• Do not produce your<br />
license and registration until<br />
the officer directly asks you<br />
for it. If the paperwork is not<br />
readily available, always mention<br />
where it is stored (glove<br />
compartment, in the visor,<br />
etc.) before you reach.<br />
• Answer all of the officer’s<br />
questions openly and honestly.<br />
Do not argue with police.<br />
Officers universally said they<br />
are not looking for a debate in<br />
the middle of traffic, but if<br />
you have a legitimate point to<br />
make, bring it up as calmly<br />
and tactfully as possible.<br />
• Officers hate belligerent<br />
and combative citizens during<br />
stops. When it comes time for<br />
the officer to write a motorist<br />
a warning or a fine, police said<br />
they are much more likely to<br />
side with the polite and cooperative<br />
violator then the loud<br />
driver playing the victim.<br />
“The officer does have discretion,”<br />
acknowledged<br />
Auburn Police Chief Andrew<br />
Sluckis. “If an officer is going<br />
to give a break to anyone, it’s<br />
probably going to be someone<br />
that is reasonable and calm.”<br />
There are some obvious<br />
caveats to this, however. If<br />
your moving violation record<br />
is large — and yes, police can<br />
(and oftentimes do) pull all<br />
this information up on their<br />
patrol car’s laptops — you’re<br />
probably going to get cited, no<br />
matter how sunny your disposition.<br />
“If a person has a lengthy<br />
driver’s history that’s like two<br />
or three pages long, the officer<br />
might come to the conclusion<br />
that this person doesn’t obey<br />
traffic laws and that giving<br />
them a warning isn’t going to<br />
help them obey traffic laws in<br />
the future,” Sluckis said.<br />
So, politeness during a stop<br />
is one thing, but at what point<br />
are you going into overkill<br />
mode to make the stop easier<br />
for police?<br />
Generally speaking, authorities<br />
said, there is no need for<br />
a motorist to shut off his<br />
entire car when stopped.<br />
While police said it’s not<br />
necessarily a bad idea, they<br />
acknowledged that during<br />
the winter especially, such a<br />
step isn’t necessary.<br />
Also, police said that if<br />
you’re stopped and your seat<br />
belt isn’t on, don’t scramble<br />
to throw it on at the last<br />
minute. Police could think<br />
you are reaching for something<br />
and are likely to view<br />
you as less cooperative.<br />
It seems counterintuitive,<br />
but the reality, police said, is<br />
that you already broke the<br />
law by not wearing the seat<br />
belt, so there’s no reason to<br />
lie about it by throwing it on<br />
after you’ve already pulled<br />
over.<br />
Overall, authorities said,<br />
while officers recognize traffic<br />
stops can be extremely<br />
stressful situations for citizens,<br />
Dudley Police Chief<br />
Steven Wojnar said he hopes<br />
residents simply realize<br />
these stops can often be just<br />
as stressful (if not more so)<br />
for police.<br />
“If you pay more attention<br />
to the police officer’s perspective<br />
rather than your<br />
own, it’s going to make it a<br />
lot easier for the entire stop,”<br />
he said.<br />
So, next time you’re pulled<br />
over, try to think about the<br />
officer behind the badge.<br />
Cooperate to the best of your<br />
ability and do your best to<br />
make the officer feel safe and<br />
at ease.<br />
If you play your cards<br />
right, you just might get that<br />
warning.<br />
Now slow down!<br />

Colonels overpower Hill in fourth<br />
RAMS’ RUN IN POSTSEASON CONCLUDES<br />
BY NICK ETHIER<br />
SPORTS STAFF WRITER<br />
WORCESTER — The South High<br />
basketball team was able to stay<br />
with Shepherd Hill through three<br />
quarters Feb. 23, and then rode a 19-<br />
9 run in the fourth to pick up a win<br />
over the Rams in the first round of<br />
Division 1 play in the Central<br />
Massachusetts tournament.<br />
The No. 8 Colonels (13-8) were led<br />
by Emmanuel Feraud, who scored a<br />
game-high 20 points.<br />
Asked about the successful<br />
fourth quarter, South coach Patrick<br />
Williams said, “Eight minutes, I<br />
just told the kids to dig in.”<br />
Leading by only one, 51-50,<br />
through three quarters, the<br />
Colonels employed a tough man-toman<br />
defense that limited the Rams<br />
to only nine points in the quarter.<br />
Good ability driving to the basket<br />
also helped South, who scored<br />
many points via layups.<br />
But the first three quarters were<br />
tightly contested, and Shepherd<br />
Hill started off strong, leading 20-12<br />
after one period of play.<br />
Six steals also played a part in the<br />
Rams grabbing an early lead.<br />
A Brian Westgate 3-pointer early<br />
in the second put Shepherd Hill up<br />
10, but South finished the half on a<br />
15-6 run to trail by only one, 32-31, at<br />
halftime.<br />
“We did what we wanted to do,<br />
but in the third quarter we let them<br />
Nick Ethier photos<br />
South point guard Hugh Daye tries to make his way through multiple Shepherd Hill<br />
defenders.<br />
pierce the zone,” Shepherd Hill<br />
coach Duane Corriveau said.<br />
Even though the Rams were only<br />
outscored by two points in the third<br />
(20-18), Corriveau noticed how<br />
South was able to get easy hoops.<br />
The teams exchanged buckets<br />
throughout the period, as the lead<br />
changed hands eight times.<br />
But then the Rams became<br />
turnover prone, which changed the<br />
course of the game. South finished<br />
with 17 steals, most coming in the<br />
second half.<br />
“I think it was just too much<br />
nerves working into the game,”<br />
Williams said about his team starting<br />
off slowly, but eventually calming<br />
down and playing a solid game.<br />
Another determining factor in<br />
the game was foul shooting.<br />
Shepherd Hill only went to the line<br />
13 times, hitting eight shots. South<br />
hit 18 of 20 free throws.<br />
Another suggestion from<br />
Corriveau is with the regular season<br />
schedule, as Shepherd Hill<br />
plays many Division 2 teams in the<br />
Southern Worcester County<br />
League, while South plays against<br />
D1 teams all year in the Inter-High<br />
League.<br />
The biggest dagger took place<br />
with just under two minutes to go<br />
when South point guard Hugh Daye<br />
(10 points, all in the second half)<br />
drove in for a layup, upping the<br />
Colonels’ lead, 66-57.<br />
John Jones and Craig Cameron<br />
also had good games for South, each<br />
netting 16 points. Justice Boateng<br />
had a game-high nine rebounds.<br />
South now faces top ranked<br />
Fitchburg Thursday night.<br />
Mike Flynn, one of three<br />
Shepherd Hill seniors, scored a<br />
team-high 17 points, including<br />
three 3-pointers. Westgate, another<br />
senior, finished with 13 points and<br />
six rebounds. Reserve senior Matt<br />
Murphy also contributed with a<br />
fourth-quarter jumper.<br />
Junior guard Matt Wells scored<br />
seven of his nine points in the first<br />
half.<br />
“I thought we did pretty well,”<br />
Corriveau said of his team that was<br />
without leading scorer Ryan<br />
Begreen.<br />
Shepherd Hill finished its season<br />
with a 12-10 record.<br />

Shepherd Hill girls earn top seed in districts<br />
BY NICK ETHIER<br />
SPORTS STAFF WRITER<br />
The 2009 MIAA Central<br />
Massachusetts basketball<br />
brackets have been<br />
announced, which means<br />
that postseason play is upon<br />
us.<br />
Let’s take a look at the<br />
brackets, as many local<br />
teams have qualified for district<br />
competition.<br />
Division 1 Boys<br />
Shepherd Hill is the only<br />
squad to emerge in this ultra<br />
competitive bracket, as they<br />
made it in with the No. 9 seed<br />
in the 11-team field. The<br />
Rams (12-9) squared off with<br />
No. 8 South High (12-8)<br />
Monday night and were bested,<br />
70-59.<br />
Fitchburg earned the top<br />
seed with their 19-3 mark.<br />
Division 1 Girls<br />
The Rams picked up the<br />
No. 1 seed in this bracket,<br />
compiling a 17-3 record.<br />
Shepherd Hill awaits the<br />
winner of Holy<br />
Name/Algonquin in quarterfinal<br />
play Friday. The Rams<br />
host the game at 7 p.m.<br />
Tantasqua (15-5) is also in<br />
this bracket, bringing in the<br />
No. 4 seed. The Warriors, like<br />
Shepherd Hill, picked up a<br />
first round bye. Tantasqua<br />
hosts the Gardner/St. Peter<br />
Marian winner Friday at a<br />
time to be determined.<br />
Division 2 Boys<br />
The hometown Pioneers,<br />
fresh off their impressive<br />
Clark Tournament finals<br />

<strong>Southbridge</strong> (18-3) will host a<br />
game at 7 p.m. Friday, facing<br />
the<br />
St.<br />
Bernard’s/Blackstone-<br />
Millville victor.<br />
“This is not going to be a<br />
cakewalk,” <strong>Southbridge</strong><br />
coach Bob Fowler said of<br />
their first postseason game.<br />
“We’re probably playing two<br />
of the best teams. That’s no<br />
present. It’s going to be a<br />
tough road.”<br />
No. 8 St. Bernard’s is 13-7,<br />
but 12-1 in their last 13<br />
games. No. 9 Blackstone<br />
Millville (13-8) is also a very<br />
tough team, according to<br />
Fowler.<br />
Northbridge (17-3) is close<br />
behind as the No. 2 seed. The<br />
Rams played host to No. 15<br />
Nashoba Regional (6-13) on<br />
Tuesday.<br />
Defending Division 2<br />
champion Tantasqua will<br />
check in with the No. 4 seed.<br />
The Warriors (16-4) hosted<br />
No. 13 Clinton (11-9) on<br />
Tuesday — the same day<br />
David Prouty (12-8), which<br />
received the No. 11 seed, traveled<br />
to No. 6 Lunenburg (14-<br />
6).<br />
Division 2 Girls<br />
Two Blackstone Valley<br />
area teams received bids for<br />
this particular tournament.<br />
No. 5 Northbridge (14-6) and<br />
No. 7 Uxbridge (12-8) both<br />
traveled for their games, as<br />
the Rams played No. 4 St.<br />
Bernard’s (16-4) and the<br />
Spartans played No. 2 Groton<br />
Dunstable (18-2), both on<br />
Thursday.<br />
Millbury and their 19-1<br />
mark are the top seed in the<br />
bracket.<br />
Division 3 Boys<br />
No. 7 Whitinsville<br />
Christian (13-6) beat No. 10<br />
Murdock (10-9) in this 17-<br />
team field to advance to the<br />

Bartlett and Quaboag are<br />
the final two teams in the<br />
bracket. Even though the No.<br />
16 Indians (5-14) and No. 17<br />

losing records, they had winning<br />
marks against Division<br />

OXFORD — Even though both the Douglas<br />
and Oxford girls’ basketball teams are not<br />
advancing to postseason play, the Lady Tigers<br />
and Lady Pirates put on a dramatic, hard<br />
fought game to end their respective seasons.<br />
Douglas overcame a 14-point fourth quarter<br />
deficit to force overtime, and ultimately<br />
upended Oxford, 52-45, in the Blackstone<br />
Valley Showcase Tuesday, Feb. 17.<br />
“To end the season like that is a tremendous<br />
boost to the kids’ confidence,” Douglas<br />
coach Jay Yacino said of his team, which<br />
starts a freshman, three sophomores and a<br />
junior.<br />
Lizz Ferguson, the Tigers’ junior center,<br />
was the driving force in the comeback victory.<br />
She finished with 19 points and 21<br />
rebounds, both game highs, but scored 15 of<br />
her points and collected 16 of her boards in<br />
the second half.<br />
“She’s a hustler, a scrapper,” Yacino said.<br />
Nick Ethier photo<br />
Douglas' Emma Piwowarski tries to rush the court,<br />
but Oxford's Ashely O'Keefe is able to swat the ball<br />
“She sets the tone for the other kids. Tonight<br />
was the perfect example of her stepping up<br />
when needed and bringing the rest of the<br />
kids along with her until they turned it on.”<br />
But it took a while for things to turn on for<br />
Douglas, as Oxford led 11-3 after one quarter<br />
and 26-14 at halftime.<br />
Jessica Jorge (17 points and seven<br />
rebounds) triggered the early lead for the<br />
Pirates by sinking three 3-pointers in the first<br />
half.<br />
Caitlyn Corey (10 points and six rebounds)<br />
and Stephanie Mahota (nine points) were<br />
other main contributors for Oxford.<br />
Douglas began its comeback midway<br />
through the fourth quarter when Ferguson<br />
picked up an offensive rebound and put a<br />
shot up for two points, cutting into Oxford’s<br />
lead, 37-26.<br />
The Tigers then installed an impressive<br />
full court press, which stymied the Pirates.<br />
Kyla Hatch (11 points, five rebounds and four<br />
steals) was able to come up with a steal and<br />
coinciding bucket, closing the gap even more.<br />
Then, with 1:30 remaining, Ferguson came<br />
up with a steal and found Hatch for a basket.<br />
At that point Oxford was only up seven, 37-30.<br />

Ferguson then scored the next three points<br />
on a free throw and layup, cutting it to 37-33.<br />
The Pirates kept fighting though, and<br />
Corey’s baseline jumper put Oxford up six.<br />
But two Douglas free throws, making it 39-<br />
35, followed by a Hatch runner, made it 39-37<br />
with less than 30 seconds to play.<br />
After Oxford hit one of two free throws to<br />
go up three points, the dramatics set in.<br />
With four seconds to go, Douglas eighthgrader<br />
Julia Piwowarski found herself with<br />
the ball as time began to wind down. Her 3-<br />
point attempt from NBA range was nothing<br />
but net, and the game headed to overtime.<br />
“She’s a phenomenal athlete,” Yacino said.<br />
“She’s a smart, smart kid. She already knows<br />
the game. There’s nothing but upside to her<br />
and her sister.”<br />
Her sister is freshman Emma Piwowarski<br />
(four points and four rebounds), a starting<br />
guard for the Tigers.<br />
Douglas was able to win overtime scoring,<br />
11-5, thanks in part to Ferguson (six overtime<br />
points) and Julia Piwowarski (nine points),<br />
who hit a shot to put the Tigers up for good,<br />
49-45.<br />
Even though Douglas finished at 6-14,<br />
Yacino can’t wait to see what his team is<br />
capable of next year, as the entire starting<br />
lineup returns.<br />
“I have never looked more forward to<br />
upcoming seasons than I do now,” he said.<br />
Oxford coach Melissa Paulhus was nothing<br />
but pleased with her team all year.<br />
“It was a tough season, but I talked to the<br />
girls at the end of the game and we talked<br />
about all the positive things that happened<br />
throughout the year,” she said of her team,<br />
which finished 0-20. “They never hung their<br />
heads down. They always gave 110 percent on<br />
the court. I would rather coach these girls<br />
than a team that made states.”

Pioneers advance to Clark Tourney finals<br />
SHEPHERD HILL BESTED IN CLOSE-FOUGHT CONTEST<br />
BY NICK ETHIER<br />
SPORTS STAFF WRITER<br />
WORCESTER — A team can win<br />
in many different ways, and the<br />
<strong>Southbridge</strong> basketball team can<br />
attest to that.<br />
The Pioneers, a fast transition<br />
team that routinely scores in the 70s,<br />
were held in check for 49 points last<br />
night against a tough Shepherd Hill<br />
defense in a large schools Clark<br />
Tournament semifinal at the<br />
Kneller Athletic Center.<br />
But No. 3 <strong>Southbridge</strong> held No. 7<br />
Shepherd Hill to 46 points, as the<br />
Pioneers escaped with a three-point<br />
victory. They move on to the final at<br />
7:45 p.m. Saturday against No. 5<br />
Groton Dunstable, who upset topseeded<br />
Quabbin, 37-30.<br />
“We held the game where we<br />
wanted to hold it,” Shepherd Hill<br />
coach Duane Corriveau said. We<br />
just didn’t hit our shots.”<br />
With 12 seconds to play, and<br />
<strong>Southbridge</strong> holding the 49-46 lead,<br />
Hashian Rosario (13 points and 11<br />
rebounds) missed two foul shots.<br />
Shepherd Hill’s Ryan Begreen, the<br />
team’s leading scorer, brought the<br />
ball up. His 3-point desperation<br />
attempt with only a few seconds to<br />
show on the clock was defended by<br />
Victor Martinez. Martinez played it<br />
nicely, stripping the ball, and the<br />
Pioneers celebrated on the court.<br />
“That is what you play for,”<br />
<strong>Southbridge</strong> coach Bob Fowler said.<br />
“To make it this far … right now<br />
we’re speechless.”<br />
<strong>Southbridge</strong> (18-3) plays in the<br />
final after two straight years of losing<br />
in the opening round, while<br />
Shepherd Hill (12-9) prepares for the<br />
Division 1 Central Mass. tournament.<br />
“It was a back and forth game,”<br />
said Shepherd Hill point guard<br />
Kevin Pastore (12 points and 11<br />
rebounds). “We just couldn’t finish<br />
it off. Districts should be fun.”<br />
All four quarters were tightly contested,<br />
as the Rams held a 13-10 edge<br />
after one quarter.<br />
Things got even closer in the second,<br />
as Shepherd Hill went into<br />
intermission nursing a one-point,<br />
23-22, lead.<br />
The scoring picked up in the third,<br />
with the lead changing hands 12<br />
times. The largest lead the entire<br />
frame was just two points.<br />
Rosario’s deep jumper at the<br />
buzzer put the Pioneers up, 37-36,<br />
heading into the final eight minutes.<br />
<strong>Southbridge</strong> never trailed in the<br />

fourth, with their largest advantage<br />
being six points. It got as close as<br />
one three different times, but the<br />
Rams could never fully close the gap.<br />
“Westgate wasn’t on, Begreen<br />
wasn’t on,” Corriveau said of his<br />
two leading scorers.<br />
Westgate did finish with 28 points,<br />
but on 7-of-19 shooting. Begreen was<br />
held to four points, shooting 1-of-12<br />
from the field and 0-for-10 from<br />
beyond the arc.<br />
With <strong>Southbridge</strong> leading 47-43,<br />
Mike Agbortoko came up with an<br />
offensive rebound and drew a foul.<br />
He hit one free throw, but Rosario<br />
came up with another offensive<br />
board, something Shepherd Hill did<br />
a good job of limiting all game.<br />
Rosario then hit one of two shots,<br />
upping the Pioneers’ lead to six.<br />
Westgate hit a 3-pointer with 17<br />
seconds left, but Shepherd Hill<br />
couldn’t get any closer, with<br />
Martinez’s big stop on Begreen<br />
being the final blow.<br />
“We completely held the defensive<br />
rebounds until the next to last foul<br />
shot,” Corriveau said of<br />
Agbortoko’s and Rosario’s<br />
rebounds, which gave <strong>Southbridge</strong><br />
two extra points.<br />
“The kids played well,” Fowler<br />
said. “That’s a tough Shepherd Hill<br />
team.”<br />
Fowler also said it was the toughest<br />
of the three contests this season<br />
against the Rams. Souhbridge won<br />
the other two contests, 68-64 and 73-<br />
54.<br />
“Down the stretch we had a couple<br />
key rebounds to fall our way,” said<br />
Martinez, who scored 13 points.<br />
“We’re a little shocked,” he continued.<br />
“We came out, did what we had<br />
to do, and got a win.”<br />
<strong>Southbridge</strong> point guard Jose<br />
DeLeon (12 points) added that a halftime<br />
pep talk about making it to the<br />
semifinals wasn’t good enough. He<br />
wants to win it all.<br />
One more victory on Saturday<br />
will do just that for the Pioneers.<br />

SPORTS STAFF WRITER<br />
CHARLTON — Riding a seven-game winning streak,<br />
the Bay Path girls’ basketball team is firing on all cylinders<br />
heading into the Division 3 Central Mass.<br />
Tournament.<br />
The Minutemen, who finished with a 16-4 record, feature<br />
a squad with many quality players who excel at all<br />
different aspects of the game, rather than having a<br />
team with one or two superstars.<br />
Come postseason time — which started Wednesday<br />
against No. 11 University Park — a well-rounded group<br />
is usually more capable of making a deep playoff run.<br />
“They are excited,” Coach Jeannine Lambert said of<br />
her team’s preparation heading into the tournament.<br />
“When we went through the final seven games, they<br />
were up for every game. They were very, very aggressive.”<br />
A team with an aggressive defense is key for a tournament-bound<br />
team, and senior Karla St. Laurent<br />
leads that charge.<br />
“Karla is my outstanding defensive person,”<br />
Lambert said of her player who matches up with the<br />
opposition’s top scorer.<br />
St. Laurent is one of six players who contribute big<br />
minutes for Bay Path, as the six combined for a total of<br />
834 points throughout the season.<br />
Cousins Elizabeth and Angela Colon are both players<br />
who can shoot the deep jumper, and they both<br />
have good playmaking abilities. Lambert also<br />
noted the great speed of Angela, a sophomore.<br />
Elizabeth is a junior.<br />
Sam Parker and Iliana Joaquin, both juniors,<br />
bring an inside presence to the<br />
Minutemen.<br />
“We call Sam the garbage man because she<br />
can really rebound and put it back up offensively,”<br />
Lambert said. “Iliana can really block<br />
shots.”<br />
Nicole Primavera, a talented lefty, rounds<br />
out the top six.<br />
“She can drive to the basket and has good 8-<br />
foot, 10-foot jump shots,” Lambert said of the<br />
sophomore.<br />
Even though those players usually fill up<br />
the stat sheet, Bay Path is fortunate to also<br />
have a deep bench.<br />
Jordyn Philbrook, a junior, usually replaces<br />
Parker or Joaquin as an inside threat. She has<br />
the potential to be a good scorer and rebounder.<br />
Kayla Bicknell and Melinda Perain are both<br />
senior small forwards off the bench that have<br />
great athletic ability and can outrebound<br />
taller opponents.<br />
Junior Haylee Brodeur and sophomore Kimberly<br />
MacCue are versatile in the sense that they can both<br />
play either the guard or forward position. They can<br />
also both drain the outside shot.<br />
Rounding out the roster is senior guard Christina<br />
Colon, a sister of Angela. Christina is a 3-point extraordinaire.<br />
Lambert was pleasantly surprised with Bay Path’s<br />
regular season record, and looks forward to district<br />
play.<br />
“In all honesty, after the season got going I thought<br />
we would be able to get 11, 12, maybe 13 wins all season,”<br />
she said.<br />
But the seven-game win streak brought the<br />
Minutemen to 16 wins, including five nail-biters<br />
throughout the season, which resulted in Bay Path<br />
winning those games by four points or less.<br />
That type of confidence is very important in district<br />
play, as one loss brings the end to the entire season.<br />
Lambert looked back on Bay Path’s victory over<br />
Monty Tech, where they trailed by as much as 16. After<br />
sending the game into overtime, the Minutemen won<br />
scoring in the extra session, 8-2.<br />
“They were able to come back on several occasions,”<br />
she added.<br />
The Minutemen should also be confident because of<br />
one factor that is instrumental in close ball games, free<br />
throw shooting. Lambert’s squad shot 75 percent from<br />
the charity stripe this year.<br />

Corps of Engineers announces<br />
upcoming events<br />
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers is heading<br />
into its seventh consecutive year of doing<br />
quarterly events. This year: Equinoxes and<br />
Solstices — an Observation Walk.<br />
An Equinox is the term for the two times of<br />
the year when the sun's position makes day<br />
and night of equal length in all parts of the<br />
earth. The tilt of the earth's axis is oriented<br />
neither from nor to the sun, causing the sun<br />
to be located vertically above a point on the<br />
equator. The name is derived from the Latin<br />
“aequus” (equal) and “nox” (night), because<br />
at the equinox the night and day are equally<br />
long. The vernal equinox and the autumnal<br />
equinox mark<br />
the beginning of the spring and fall seasons<br />
in the Northern Hemisphere.<br />
A solstice is an astronomical event that<br />
occurs twice a year when the tilt of the<br />
earth's axis is most oriented toward or away<br />
from the sun, causing the sun to reach its<br />
northernmost or southernmost extreme. The<br />
name is derived from the Latin “sol” (sun)<br />
and “sistere” (to stand still), because at the<br />
solstices, the sun stands still in declination.<br />
There is a summer and winter solstice and<br />
they have different significance for various<br />
religions.<br />
Come celebrate the arrival of spring<br />
Saturday, March 21 at 10 a.m. with an observation<br />
walk around Hodges Village.<br />
Using all your senses, we will discover two<br />
different trees and buds, wind, look for the<br />
first robin(s), talk about sap and nests and<br />
March facts.<br />
Vernal Pool Walks will be held Saturday,<br />
April 4 at 10:30 am.<br />
This is our usual trek to a vernal pool on<br />
the first Saturday in April. Meet Park Ranger<br />
Jamie Kordack at Hodges Village Dam utility<br />
building/conference center for a short<br />
slideshow and Q&A<br />
before heading out to pools around HV.<br />
On Saturday, April 11, at 10:30 a.m., meet<br />
Park Ranger Jamie Kordack at Buffumville<br />
Park for a longer hike to find obligate critters.<br />
For both walks dress in layers, wear good<br />
boots and bring a camera if you have one.<br />

future, Lila is seeking a lung<br />
transplant, but needs the<br />
community’s help.<br />
A benefit will be held<br />
Saturday, Feb. 28, at<br />
Halligan’s Royal Lounge in<br />
Auburn. Proceeds will be<br />
used to pay for travel expenses<br />
the couple expects to incur<br />
from having the procedure<br />
done in Pennsylvania.<br />
Health insurance coverage<br />
will cover the surgery.<br />
Lila was sleeping during a<br />
reporter’s visit to her home<br />
last week and was unavailable<br />
for comment.<br />
Getting to this latest chapter<br />
in coping with the disease<br />
has been a difficult and trying<br />
experience.<br />
Lila (nee Smith) was first<br />
diagnosed at 4 months old,<br />
her husband said.<br />
Specifically, the condition is<br />
a genetic disease that diminishes<br />
an individual’s lung<br />
capacity and fills the lungs<br />
with stick mucus. It also<br />
damages the digestive system.<br />
Approximately 1,000<br />
new cases are found annually<br />
and 70 percent are diagnosed<br />
before an individual is two<br />
years old, according to the<br />
Cystic Fibrosis Foundation.<br />
Forty percent of sufferers<br />
are over age 18. The median<br />
survival age is 36.5, according<br />
to the group.<br />
“It’s pretty severe,” Luke<br />
said of his wife’s condition.<br />
As the patient, Lila is not<br />
the only person affected by<br />
her condition. Luke spends<br />
much of his time each day<br />
caring for her up until 1 p.m.,<br />
when he leaves for several<br />
hours to work. He performs<br />
physical therapy for Lila,<br />
which is meant to clear her<br />
lungs, and administers medication,<br />
among other things.<br />
To help care for Lila, the couple<br />
moved into her mother’s<br />
Prindle Hill Road home,<br />
Luke said.<br />
What some might regard<br />
as a burden, however, Luke<br />
takes in stride.<br />
“That’s the easy part,” he<br />
said of the daily care.<br />
The hard part is just living<br />
their lives.<br />
Left with little strength<br />
most of the time, and having<br />
only limited lung capacity,<br />
Lila can’t leave home, except<br />
for doctor visits, he said.<br />
When she is up to it, the couple<br />
watches movies together,<br />
enjoying reruns of<br />
“Friends.” Despite her state,<br />
Lila enjoys knitting and<br />
weaving articles of clothing.<br />
“She is quite the good<br />
artist,” he said. “She is a<br />
happy person most of the<br />
time.”<br />
Luke would never have<br />
known that if not for their<br />
connection several years ago.<br />
Although both grew up in<br />
Charlton, they did not know<br />
each other until 2003. Luke<br />
took Lila rock climbing that<br />
year and it was all roses from<br />
there. The couple married<br />
June 3, 2006.<br />
Looking ahead, the couple<br />
is keeping a positive attitude.<br />
If successful, Lila could<br />
regain all of her lung capacity,<br />
which would dramatically<br />
alter her lifestyle, Luke said.<br />
Three prior attempts to get a<br />
transplant, he said, did not<br />
pan out. That has not stopped<br />
the couple. Luke quoted a<br />
notable line from the film<br />
“Apollo 13,” when mission<br />
controller Gene Kranz urges<br />
urging his colleague’s not to<br />
give up.<br />
“As they say, ‘failure is not<br />
an option,’” Luke said.<br />
The benefit, featuring dinner<br />
and other activities are<br />
scheduled to start at 6 p.m.<br />
Tickets will be sold at the<br />
door. Adult tickets are $10,<br />
and children’s admission is<br />
$5.<br />

Relay for Life to increase its coverage area<br />
RELAY<br />
continued from page 1<br />
$100,000” and that with the other towns included,<br />
he believes they can surpass this number.<br />
He also mentioned that by bringing in the additional<br />
towns, he hopes new ideas will form as<br />
well.<br />
“The main thing is to get as many research<br />
dollars as we can,” he said.<br />
Relay for Life of Auburn co-Chairman Karen<br />
Sisko said she is in support of Gallant’s goal.<br />
She said she feels it is time for the Auburn<br />
event to experience growth.<br />
“If we don’t grow, I’m concerned the Auburn<br />
Relay for Life will fizzle out,” she said.<br />
Gallant is starting to drum up awareness<br />
about the idea to the other towns. He has<br />
already presented it to the Millbury Board of<br />
Selectmen and he said State Sen. Michael<br />
Moore has been helpful in getting him into contact<br />
with people from the town.<br />
“I think everyone was happy that I went and<br />
spoke,” Gallant said. “I’m hoping that things<br />
will get off the ground.”<br />
Millbury Board of Selectmen Vice Chairman<br />
Joseph Coggans expressed his enthusiasm for<br />
the expansion and said he has no doubt that<br />
Millbury will be a hefty contributor. He said<br />
Millbury has always been a “generous contributor”<br />
to the similar events adding that<br />
Millbury holds a Walk for Cancer every year.<br />
“The Millbury community has always<br />
stepped up to the plate,” Coggans said.<br />
Millbury Town Manager Robert Spain is<br />
looking forward to the event as well.<br />
“I think anytime you can raise money for<br />
cancer, it’s a good thing,” he said. “The Relay<br />
for Life has done really well.”<br />
Gallant said at last year’s Relay for Life there<br />
three areas for reform — ethics,<br />
process and voting.<br />
Highlights of the package include<br />
an eight-year limit on the Speaker’s<br />
term, mandatory ethics training,<br />
clarifications on gifts from lobbyists<br />
and the elimination of so-called<br />
“phantom voting,” which occurred<br />
last spring when a computerized voting<br />
mechanism on the house floor<br />
recorded several votes for State Rep.<br />
Charles Murphy, D-Burlington, who<br />
was in the Virgin Islands at the time.<br />
While democrats like Alicea hailed<br />
the reform bill as a good “first step”<br />
in the process of making the legislative<br />
method more open, some republicans,<br />
including State Rep. Paul<br />
Frost, R-Auburn, said the rules package<br />
lacked the necessary punch to<br />
drive ethics reform fully home.<br />
“We think it was a good thing, however,<br />
I don’t think the rules went far<br />
enough and it was somewhat of a disappointment,”<br />
Frost said. “It deals<br />
with the issues, but it has no teeth.”<br />
Frost said Republicans proposed<br />
several additions to the rules package,<br />
including splitting the House’s<br />
Ethics Committee membership evenly<br />
between democrats and republicans<br />
and calling for more transparency<br />
and accountability in Ethics<br />
Committee dealings.<br />
“There’s no question that there’s a<br />
dark cloud on Beacon Hill and this<br />
would have been a good step toward<br />
clearing that,” Frost said. “What<br />
[democrats] did do in the rules was a<br />
step forward to some degree, but<br />
when we attempted to add some teeth<br />
… and make each member responsible<br />
for their actions … that got rejected.”<br />
Under the new ethics guidelines,<br />
the Speaker and Minority Leader<br />
will be able to unilaterally remove<br />
both rank and file members and<br />
those appointed to leadership positions<br />
upon their criminal indictment.<br />
Representatives will also<br />
specifically be prohibited from<br />
receiving gifts from lobbyists.<br />
This rule has been on the books<br />
for some time, but until now only<br />
referred to “cash gifts” in excess<br />
of $100, not in-kind presents.<br />
Under process reform, the new<br />
rules will also make heavy use of<br />
the Internet, which legislators<br />
agree is the perfect medium for<br />
creating transparency in state<br />
affairs.<br />
Alicea said the state was working<br />
on implementing new software to<br />
improve ease of access on these sites.<br />
“We want people to be able to pull<br />
up the voting records, etc. [of their<br />
legislators],” he said. “You shouldn’t<br />
have to go through windows to figure<br />
that stuff out.”<br />
As a result of the changes, all bills<br />
introduced and admitted for consideration<br />
in the House will be available<br />
to members electronically and for<br />
online posting. Notice of committee<br />
hearings will also be posted on the<br />
Internet.<br />
The new rules will also hopefully<br />
eliminate “phantom voting” by<br />
requiring officials to disable the voting<br />
system of any member who has<br />
were 36 teams that participated. He said he is<br />
hoping to get at least 10 teams out of the three<br />
additional towns. Gallant also mentioned by<br />
adding the towns, there are more businesses<br />
and organizations that will be able to contribute<br />
to the event. He said he does understand<br />
that because of the economy, businesses might<br />
not be as willing to donate money. So, the committee<br />
is going to target the employees of these<br />
businesses and encourage them to form their<br />
own teams.<br />
Gallant stressed that the event is so important<br />
because there is not a single person who<br />
has not been affected by the disease.<br />
“I don’t think there is anyone in the population<br />
who has not been touched by cancer,” he<br />
said.<br />
Gallant encourages anyone who would like<br />
to be involved with the event to call him at 508-<br />
832-3664.<br />
notified the clerk that he will be<br />
absent for a formal session.<br />
The measure also requires the<br />
clerk to disable the voting system of<br />
any legislator failing to answer the<br />
first non-quorum roll call.<br />
House officials were debating<br />
installing card swiping systems that<br />
would unlock voting mechanisms,<br />
but Alicea said the aforementioned<br />
rule was reached as a compromise<br />
and a way to save money for the state.<br />
Overall, however, legislators universally<br />
said they hoped the numerous<br />
House rules reforms would simply<br />
help pave the way to a smoother<br />
and more open legislative session.<br />
Such caveats are important, legislators<br />
said, since 2009 is likely to be a<br />
year when cash will be short, cuts<br />
The Relay for Life was started in the mid-<br />
1980s by Dr. Gordy Klatt, a colorectal surgeon in<br />
Tacoma, Wash. who wanted to increase the<br />
income of his American Cancer Society office<br />
and show support for his cancer patients.<br />
Participants raise money and walk the entire<br />
night to signify that the disease never sleeps.<br />
The relay starts off with a survivors’ lap where<br />
any one who has battled the disease walk<br />
around the track. Since then it has grown to an<br />
annual international event.<br />
Every year, cancer patients, survivors and<br />
their friends and family flock to their local<br />
events and do laps around the track overnight<br />
to show their support and raise awareness.<br />

According to the state, the<br />
recyclables market has been<br />
pummeled by the recent economic<br />
collapse. Since October,<br />
the Massachusetts Department<br />
of Environmental Protection<br />
(DEP) reports the price for<br />
recyclables in the northeast<br />
has dropped by 75 percent or<br />
more.<br />
This drop correlates to a<br />
drastic decline in consumer<br />
demand for new products,<br />
writes DEP official Brook<br />
Nash, a decline that reduces<br />
the need for metal, plastics and<br />
other materials used to manufacture<br />
new goods.<br />
“The result: a market that<br />
could barely keep up with the<br />
demand for new products six<br />
months ago was suddenly overstocked<br />
with inventory and<br />
needed less feedstock for new<br />
production,” she wrote.<br />
Proctor-Gray agreed, saying<br />
studies from the Sierra Club<br />
reported the market price for<br />
recyclable paper fell from $105<br />
to $20 per ton from October to<br />
December. Tin dropped from<br />
$327 to a shocking $5 per ton.<br />
One way to combat this market<br />
drop is to buy recycled<br />
materials, Proctor-Gray said,<br />
adding residents should urge<br />
local businesses to carry recycled<br />
products.<br />
“We can all do our part to<br />
help by making it a point to<br />
seek out products made from<br />
recycled materials and to let<br />
store managers know that we<br />
will buy those products,” she<br />
said. “For instance, we have<br />
noticed that facial tissues<br />
made from recycled paper<br />
(such as Marcal or Seventh<br />
Generation brands) are no<br />
longer available at our Webster<br />
Price Chopper, CVS,<br />
Walgreen’s or Rite-Aid. Let<br />
these stores know that you are<br />
looking for recycled brands.”<br />
Proctor-Gray said she was<br />
incredibly pleased with the<br />
high recycling rates Webster<br />
residents posted and added her<br />
hopes more people would make<br />
use of the town’s transfer station<br />
to get rid of their waste.<br />
The process is not complicated,<br />
she said, as Little River<br />
employs a single-stream recycling<br />
system that does not<br />
require sorting into separate<br />
recyclable types.<br />
Glass, mixed paper, tin, aluminum,<br />
corrugated cardboard<br />
and plastics are all accepted.<br />
<strong>News</strong>papers are the only<br />
item residents will need to separate.<br />
In addition to the program at<br />
the transfer station, Proctor-<br />
Gray called attention to several<br />
other opportunities for recycling<br />
in Webster:<br />
• Books, videos, DVDs, and<br />
CDs may be donated to the Got<br />
Books program by placing<br />
them in the large collection bin<br />
at the Webster Police Station<br />
on Thompson Road.<br />
• Cell phones may be recycled<br />
via postage-paid envelopes<br />
available at Corbin Public<br />
Library or at Bartlett High<br />
School.<br />
• Rechargeable batteries and<br />
mercury-containing products<br />
(thermometers, thermostats)<br />
are collected at the Board of<br />
Health in Town Hall.<br />
The Webster Recycling<br />
Commission is a nine-member,<br />
all-volunteer committee that<br />
originally formed with the<br />
charge of putting a recycling<br />
program in place in Webster.<br />
Today their activities focus<br />
mainly on litter cleanup, raising<br />
communal environmental<br />
awareness and hazardous<br />
waste collection days.<br />
Both state and local officials<br />
say they are hopeful the global<br />

recyclables market will soon<br />
recover, but acknowledge<br />
much of this will hinge on a<br />
broader economic recovery in<br />
U.S. markets.<br />
For now, however, Proctor-<br />
Gray just wants everyone in<br />
town to keep up their high<br />
level of stewardship and keep<br />
on recycling.<br />
“Anything that just gets<br />
thrown away is either going to<br />
be burned or thrown in a landfill<br />
… and we all know that<br />
spaces for those are running<br />
out and burning pollutes our<br />
air,” she said. “So it just makes<br />
sense to avoid creating this<br />
kind of trash whenever we<br />
can.”<br />

Trespassers set small fire in<br />
abandoned building<br />
WEBSTER — At approximately 7:50 p.m.<br />
Friday, Feb. 20, Webster Police Dispatch<br />
received a call reporting an unknown type<br />
fire in the area of 359-385 block of Main<br />
Street.<br />
This report was unclear as to whether or<br />
not the fire was inside the building or outside.<br />
The 359-385 block of Main St. has been<br />
condemned by the Webster Board of Health<br />
and has been clearly posted as such as well as<br />
posted no trespassing.<br />
Upon arrival at the scene, Det. Wentworth<br />
observed flames to be visible in the basement<br />
of the rear of 385 Main St. Detective<br />
Wentworth was also able to see two subjects<br />
inside the building. These subjects were<br />
later identified as Michael Buduo, 43, of 37 E.<br />
Main St. in Webster and Miguel Mercado, 43,<br />
of 4 Oak St., Dudley. These subjects initially<br />
denied knowledge of any fire, which had<br />
been extinguished prior to the subjects exiting<br />
the building.<br />
Upon entering and inspecting the building,<br />
Det. Wentworth and Assistant Webster Fire<br />
Chief Brian Hickey located three canisters<br />
of a wax type substance that had been<br />
burned. These objects were located just<br />
inside the door, which had been broken into.<br />
One canister was still smoldering and the<br />
basement was full of smoke. Evidence at the<br />
scene suggested that the fire had been extinguished<br />
with a bottle of beer and that there<br />
was no extension.<br />
During the questioning, the two subjects<br />
stated they had entered the building to have<br />
some beers and started the fire in order to<br />
keep warm. They stated they had been frequenting<br />
the building for about a month.<br />
The building in question had been previously<br />
been condemned due to its extremely<br />
deteriorating conditions. The building is<br />
known to public safety responders in town to<br />
have many holes in the floor and collapsing<br />
areas.<br />
These subjects were subsequently placed<br />
under arrest. They were transported to the<br />
Webster Police Department where they were<br />
booked and charged with breaking and<br />
entering with the intent to commit a misdemeanor<br />
trespassing.<br />
Bail was set at $200 each and both subjects<br />
were being held in the Webster Police<br />
Lockup Facility.<br />

FIRE AND ICE<br />

STURBRIDGE — Elena Ralph, 3, of<br />
Webster inspects the ice blocks cut at<br />
Old Sturbridge Village at OSV’s recent<br />
“Fire & Ice Day” celebration as her<br />
brother, Joseph M. Ralph, 9, tries his<br />
hand at cutting ice the old fashioned<br />
way. OSV historians demonstrated an<br />
1830s ice harvest by cutting ice<br />
blocks on the frozen mill pond. New<br />
England ice was an important “cash<br />
crop” in the 1800s and was shipped to<br />
the tropics for refrigeration. Old<br />
Sturbridge Village also offers sledding<br />
and ice skating this year, and will feature<br />
horse-drawn sleigh rides daily during<br />
school vacation week Feb. 14-22,<br />
snow permitting.

Who has the right to complain<br />
We are living in unsettling<br />
times — so unsettling<br />
that people are<br />
ready to forfeit their<br />
basic liberties to those who they<br />
think just might be able to save<br />
them.<br />
Christians are in awe as they<br />
watch economies collapse and<br />
world powers rise just as scripture<br />
predicted, but we are still shocked<br />
and saddened at the sight. Of late,<br />
most of the American public feels<br />
like they have been violated.<br />
Millions of dollars have been swindled,<br />
trillions in taxes are being<br />
levied, and our entire nation is<br />
morphing into something very different<br />
than was intended by our<br />
founding fathers. All these developments<br />
have generated a great deal<br />
of complaining.<br />
I pose the question: Who has complaining<br />
rights?<br />
Wall Street was greedy.<br />
Executives lied and cheated.<br />
Politicians manipulated and sold<br />
out their constituents. Contracts<br />
were broken. Schools became dangerous.<br />
History was rewritten.<br />
Decency disappeared. It seems like<br />
the world is spinning out of control!<br />
For America the problem is<br />
painfully simple. Over time, many<br />
Americans have chosen to change<br />
their basic value system. Every<br />
honest historian will tell you the<br />
same thing the engravings on our<br />
nation’s federal buildings and monuments<br />
declare — we are a nation<br />
that was founded under God. Our<br />
government was founded on the<br />
principles of the Ten<br />
Commandments — that’s a fact. It<br />
is incredible that we should seem so<br />
shocked that the building is crumbling<br />
when we have systematically<br />
allowed every branch of government<br />
to remove the very foundation<br />
BEYOND<br />
THE PEWS<br />
JOHN<br />
HANSON<br />
of our country. We have no right to<br />
complain, if we did not resist this<br />
trend.<br />
The truth is some of you may<br />
have complaining rights. If you<br />
have rejected the status quo morals<br />
of our day that allow for cheating<br />
on spouses, little white lies, and<br />
self-centered living then you have a<br />
right to complain when executives<br />
and politicians live out those values.<br />
If you are committed to being<br />
honest on your taxes, paying your<br />
bills, sacrificing for your family,<br />
and spending your money wisely,<br />
they you have a right to complain<br />
when others in your society do otherwise.<br />
If you have remained true<br />
to the Ten Commandments, then<br />
you’ve earned the right to complain<br />
about a nation gone rogue.<br />
Of course, complaining does little<br />
good. Even prayer only goes so<br />
far. God answers prayer, and God<br />
could do some things to intervene,<br />
but it will always come back to the<br />
will of the people. Unless America,<br />
as a whole, chooses to live by God’s<br />
morals and values, it will continue<br />
to crumble. We should pray for our<br />
country, but God won’t cheat for<br />
any nation or individual.<br />
Here’s the good news.<br />
If you live in a nation that does<br />
not choose wisely as a corporate<br />
entity, you can still succeed as an<br />
individual. You can be a bright<br />
light in a dark world, a rose among<br />
thorns, a wise person among fools.<br />
Then you will discover that complaining<br />
is a waste of time, but<br />
helping other individuals rediscover<br />
things like purity, honesty and<br />
integrity will change the world —<br />
at least your world. More important<br />
than a right to complain is the Godgiven<br />
right and power to choose.<br />
You may have been violated, but<br />
you have the opportunity to see that<br />
no one is violated as a result of<br />
your actions. No world leader will<br />
solve this crisis, but your right personal<br />
responses will insure a strong<br />
personal foundation. If enough<br />
other people choose well, entire<br />
nations will be blessed. If not, at<br />
least you and yours will be blessed,<br />
both now and forevermore.<br />

MSBA to accelerate $3M to Dudley/Charlton district<br />
BOSTON — Rep. Paul Kujawski, D-Webster, and Katherine Craven, Massachusetts<br />
School Building Authority (MSBA) executive director, have announced that the MSBA<br />
has accelerated $166 million in payments to more than 130 cities, towns and regional<br />
school districts.<br />
These payments will provide much needed cash to communities at a time of local fiscal<br />
stress and recently announced cuts in local aid that includes a total of $3,188,650 for<br />
the Dudley-Charlton Regional School District in the form of Prior Grants.<br />
“During these tough financial times our district can use every bit of help we can<br />
receive,” said Kujawski. “MSBA has continued to be a large part of our community’s<br />
educational system as they are strong supporters of Dudley-Charlton Regional School<br />
District.”<br />
“Under the former program, a majority of these payments wouldn’t have been made<br />
until the last day of the fiscal year,” said Craven.<br />
To date, the MSBA has made approximately $6 billion in reimbursements to cities and<br />
towns for school construction projects inherited from the former program. These payments<br />
have saved municipalities millions of dollars in interest costs and reinvigorated<br />
a system that once had approximately $11 billion in outstanding obligations. In its fouryear<br />
history, the MSBA has successfully contained the Commonwealth’s formerly rampant<br />
and unsustainable financial liability for the costs of 1,150 local school construction<br />
projects. In 2007, the MSBA was able to reopen a sustainable, reformed grant program as<br />
a result of programmatic reforms and sound fiscal management.

Local skaters take center stage at Bay State Games<br />
AUBURN — Leila Wang of Northborough, Elisa<br />
Raymond of Sutton and Brianna DeMartino of<br />
Oxford competed recently at the Bay State Games<br />
hosted at Williams College, Williamstown.<br />
The Bay State Winter Games are part of the<br />
Massachusetts Amateur Sports Foundation. The<br />
games are an Olympic-style sports festival that allows<br />
participants to have a great experience in their sport<br />
and to take in all the other competitions that the<br />
Games offer.<br />
The 2009 Bay State Winter Games celebrated its 24th<br />
year this season with more than 700 participants in<br />
figure skating, alpine skiing and ice hockey. The<br />
Winter Games remain a popular competition for athletes<br />
of all ages from across the Massachusetts.<br />
Elisa placed sixth in her age division with a nice<br />
program skated to “Cirque de Soleil.” She completed<br />
all required elements including landing the infamous<br />
axel jump to open her program.<br />
Brianna placed fifth with her entertaining rendition<br />
of “Thoroughly Modern Millie.”<br />
Leila performed a near flawless program to the ballet<br />
“Giselle” which won her a silver medal and<br />
secured a spot for her in the state games to be held in<br />
Colorado Springs, Colo., this summer.<br />
The girls workout at the Horgan Arena, located in<br />
Auburn and represent The Central Massachusetts<br />
Figure Skating Club under the coaching direction of<br />
Tracy Griffin.<br />
Congratulation girls, we look forward to hearing<br />
more about the skaters from Central Massachusetts<br />
FSC in March when many of them will compete in the<br />
38th Annual Skating Club of Natick Competition.<br />
Several local skaters took part in the 2009 Bay State Winter Games recently, which celebrated<br />
its 24th year this season with more than 700 participants in figure skating, alpine skiing and<br />
ice hockey.<br />

of God, Queen of Heaven<br />
and Earth, I humbly beseech<br />
you from the bottom of my<br />
heart, succor me in this necessity.<br />
There are none that<br />
can withstand your call. Oh,<br />
show me herein, you are my<br />
mother. Oh, Mary conceived<br />
without sin, pray for us who<br />
have recourse to thee. (3<br />
times) Holy Mary I place this<br />
cause in your hands (3<br />
times). Sweet Mother I pray<br />
for this cause in your hands.<br />
(3 times). Holy Spirit, resolve<br />
all problems, light all roads<br />
so that I can attain my goal.<br />
You gave me the divine gift<br />
to forgive and forget all evil<br />
against me in all instances of<br />
my life, you are with me. I<br />
want this short prayer to<br />
thank you for all things as<br />
you confirm once again that I<br />
never want to be separated<br />
from you even in spite of material<br />
things. I wish to be<br />
with you in eternal glory.<br />
Thank you for your mercy toward<br />
me and mine. The person<br />
must say this prayer<br />
three consecutive days. After<br />
three days the request<br />
will be granted. This prayer<br />
must be published after the<br />
prayer is granted. Thank<br />
you.<br />
