Mackin new water super

Senior cadets learn the ropes

Learning from green power

By SuSanna Sheehan, Clipper Staff [email protected]

Town Manager Richard MacDonald announced this week that he has promoted a water department employee to the position of water superin-tendent.

MacDon-ald intro-duced Peter Mackin as the new wa-ter superin-tendent to the Board of Selectmen at their meet-ing Monday. Mackin, 36,

was named acting supervisor when the previous superin-tendent Paul Anderson left in June. He has worked for Dux-bury for the past three years as

a water/sewer treatment plant operator.

Before coming to Dux-bury, Mackin, who lives in Cataumet on Cape Cod, was employed by the Buzzard’s Bay water district in Bourne. There he served as a second-ary operator for five years. He is a 1991 graduate of Bourne High School.

Mackin holds a variety of licenses and certifications re-lated to water department op-erations.

MacDonald said that the team he assembled to inter-view candidates for the posi-tion were very impressed with Mackin.

“I look forward to serving the town of Duxbury for years to come,” Mackin told select-

Police departments some-times have a difficult time reaching out to the senior population. So when Duxbury Police Lieutenant Susan James was recently mobbed by peo-ple at the Senior Center ask-ing her questions, she credited the Senior Police Academy for fostering better relations be-tween police and seniors.

The senior academy has been around since 2004 and

is combined with the depart-ment’s DECIDE program, which stands for developing elder choice and defensive eduction.

“We teach safety, and we also let them know what it’s like to be part of a police acad-emy,” James said. The senior group was an extension of the existing student police acad-emy, she said.

The program begins Thurs-day, Sept. 24, and will run for

An opening reception for the New England Watercolor Society Regional Show is scheduled at The Art Complex Museum on Sunday, Sept. 20, from 1:30 until 3:30 p.m. The exhibit is exciting not only for the beauty of the works but also for its diversity ranging from portraits to seascapes and still lifes.

The mission of the New England Watercolor Society is to encourage and foster the excellence and advancement of the fine art of aqua media throughout New England. The group, which is composed of more than four hundred mem-bers from throughout New England, makes its home at the Emmanuel Church on New-bury Street in Boston. Mem-bership is gained by being jur-ied into four society sponsored exhibits, one being a national exhibit, within ten years.

Other receptions sched-uled on Sept. 20 are for En Plein Air, vibrant oil paintings done on location, Than Smith, Dancing Branches and On the Grounds: Kristine Brennen, stone seating and sculpture.

The Duxbury Ru-ral and Historical Society is seeking

volunteers for another archae-ological dig. Unlike the Sec-ond Meetinghouse Dig of last year, this undertaking will not be a full blown excavation. The “mini-dig” will take place at the King Caesar House. This time, no building foun-dation is being sought. The object is to sink a number of small “test-pits” in an effort to locate any shards of material that might shed light on what sort of materials the Weston Family had in the house.

The King Caesar House museum, represented as it likely appeared around the 1820s, is full of period objects, the vast majority of which have Duxbury provenance. However, few of them actu-ally belonged to Ezra Weston II, “King Caesar.” Very lit-tle is known about how the Westons furnished the house. Any scraps, shards, or frag-ments uncovered during the mini-dig will add to the So-ciety’s understanding of what the Westons had in the house during the golden age of the Weston firm.

The dig will take place daily from Sept. 21 through 27

from 1-4 p.m. Those interest-ed in participating are asked to attend an orientation session at the King Caesar Barn on Sat-

urday, Sept. 19 at 1 p.m. The goal of the orientation session is to acquaint volunteers with the methods that will be used

and to allow volunteers to sign up for specific shifts as their schedules allow. The dig is open to any interested individ-uals (children under 15 must be accompanied by an adult).

For more information, please contact the Society at 781-934-6106 or visit the So-ciety’s Web site at www.dux-buryhistory.org.

Jake Genereaux, the 14-year old owner of Jake’s Dogs, a hotdog cart with a license to sell food at Snug Harbor, has received permission from the town to operate at the Chan-dler School field during Sunday soccer games.

Duxbury selectmen this week voted unanimously to amend a license they granted to Genereaux of Lake Shore Drive in 2008 to hawk hot dogs at Mattakeeset Court from the end of May through October. Genereaux is now able to sell hot dogs on Sundays at the Coppens field complex from 11 to 3 p.m.

Operating on Sunday was acceptable to Duxbury Youth Soccer, which rents the fields on Chandler Street for games and practices, since they have not been able to staff the con-cessions stand there on that day. However, the organization requested selectmen grant Ge-nereaux’s license for this year only, a condition to which se-lectmen agreed.

In a memo to Town Manag-er Richard MacDonald, Recre-ation Director Gordon Cushing stated that he had reservations about having Genereaux’s hot dog cart at Chandler field be-cause he did not want to see the non-profit Duxbury Youth Soc-cer have to compete with a for-profit business for concessions revenue. Cushing had nothing against Genereaux’s business but felt the situation was “not ideal,” according to MacDon-ald.

Also at the meeting, select-men:

Executed a settlement agreement with the police dis-patchers union. The one-year agreement is retroactive to July 1, 2008 and ended June 30, 2009. Under the new terms, em-ployees will receive a 2 percent wage increase and their work

week will be reduced from 40 hours to 37.5 hours. They will receive the same compensation as other police unions for holi-days, which is double time rate plus holiday pay. These holi-days include New Year’s Day, Christmas Day, July 4th and Thanksgiving Day. The agree-ment also deletes the provi-sions for vacations and changes the requirements for sick days to include “family sick days.”

• In other business, select-men announced a public hear-ing by MassHighway on the re-design of the Route 53/Winter

Street intersection on Septem-ber 29 at 7pm in the basement mural room at town hall.

• Learned that Town Man-ager Richard MacDonald has appointed a new committee to oversee town maintenance and buildings projects. Members include Paul Brogna, Dennis Nolan, Frank Mangione, Lee Kennedy, Jr., Adam Yanulis , Andre Martecchini and Eliza-beth Lewis. The committee will review any projects with a cost over $15,000 and others as de-termined by the town manager. They will report to MacDonald as well as the town’s financial committee’s and the annual town meeting.

• Granted a one-day beer and wine liquor license for a Duxbury Youth Hockey fund-raiser on Saturday at 160 King Caesar Rd.

• Heard from resident Mary Marshall of Ledgewood Drive, who wanted to know more from Town Manager Richard Mac-Donald about the “manage-ment practices” he cited in not renewing the contract of Police Chief Mark DeLuca. MacDon-ald said that he could not dis-cuss the matter at Monday’s meeting because he hadn’t gone over it with the Board of Selectmen yet.

men. Department of Public Works Director Peter Buttkus was pleased about Mackin’s appointment and praised his newest manager.

“I am thrilled,” said Butt-kus. “He’s a great guy, a no nonsense, put-your-head-down and get-the-job-done kind of guy. He takes his job extreme-

ly seriously but he has a good sense of humor. He’s going to do very well.”

Buttkus said that since Mackin took over as acting water superintendent he has “hit the ground running” and been in the forefront of the completion of the new Birch Street water tank and been in-volved in the development of a new well.

In parishes like Holy Fam-ily Church in Duxbury, area Catholics are trying to take their faith from the pews into the living room through the ARISE program.

In ARISE, parishioners hold weekly meetings in their homes, small groups of no more than 11-12 people. The idea is to encourage people to foster a more personal rela-tionship with their faith, and the Catholic Church (the pro-gram was introduced by Car-dinal Sean O’Malley, head of the Boston Archdiocese, who had success with a similar pro-gram when he was in Fall Riv-er) is hoping it may help cox some disillusioned Catholics back to the flock.

“We as Catholics don’t talk about our faith,” said Holy Family’s ARISE coordinator Neal Doherty. “But when you do, it’s such a wonderful expe-rience ... People are really re-inforced by the discussion.”

The program has been suc-

cessful at Holy Family from the get-go, as over 130 people have already signed up through the first two six-week sessions and organizers are hoping for more after another round of signups this weekend.

In ARISE meetings, there is a “facilitator,” who leads the group in reading the materials provided by the archdiocese for each session, but there is no real leader. Instead, say participants, there is casual and comfortable group discus-sion

“Through ARISE you’re opening yourself to others,” said Mary Alica Sherman. “It’s even strengthened old friendships.”

“It has made faith more meaningful to me,” said An-drea Heinstadt, who is in a dis-cussion group with Sherman. Holy Family had 13 individual groups meeting during the last session.

But the program is about more than talking about faith. Each week, the readings con-tain an “Invitation to Act,”

which challenges ARISE members to go out into the community. One group at Holy Family spent time at the Pine Street Inn in Boston last year, and another collected blankets to donate to a home-less shelter.

Group members say the format of the groups has led to better sharing.

“We bring different per-spectives ... it’s a little more comfortable,” said Heinstadt.

“It’s more personal,” add-ed Sherman. “You’re just more aware on Sunday.”

For those interested in joining ARISE, anyone is wel-come and you can join any-time. There are three more six-week sessions, this fall, and then spring and fall of next year. Holy Family is holding a parish picnic this weekend, and there will be a signup ta-ble. Otherwise, those interest-ed in participating can call the parish office at 781-934-5055 or Neal Doherty at 781-934-2580.

171 Buckboard Road, Duxbury

The Duxbury Rotary Club announces the 13th running of its

annual Rubber Duck Race, to be hosted at the Washington Street Bridge over the Blue Fish River in Duxbury on Sept. 19, at 11 a.m.

The first recorded rub-ber duck race in America was run in 1988, and the largest ever held in the world was run last year on the Thames near Hampton Court Palace in England—over 250,000 ducks were entered!

The Duxbury race is mod-est in comparison, with about 2,500 yellow, pink and blue

plastic ducks running the hun-dred yard course each year. It’s the kind of fun, whole-some, small-town event that typifies life here in Duxbury. The first race held in town in 1995 was modeled after a sim-ilar race run by the Ellsworth, ME Rotary Club. The late Stu Matheson, a long-standing member of the Rotary Club, was visiting friends in Maine, saw the race and thought it would be a great way to raise funds for the Duxbury Club’s scholarship program. Since that time, the club has raised over $60,000 for scholarships through this event.

Ducks are still available for sale, and can be purchased at tables in front of Foodie’s most evenings and weekend mornings between now and the Sept. 19. Ducks will be sold at the event up to 10:45 a.m. on the 19th. Ducks are priced at 1/$5, 3/$10 and 10/$20.

Senior police academy starts Sept. 24 at the Senior Center

The Duxbury Police Department will be hosting its annual Senior Citizen Police Academy starting Thursday, Sept. 24, to be held at the Duxbury Senior Center. The program will run for eight Thursdays from 9:30 a.m. to 12 noon. We welcome any senior, whatever your age, to participate. On the first day stu-dents will be required to complete a health questionnaire, liabil-ity release form and, due to the sensitive areas the seniors will be visiting, a criminal history background check will also be required. Many exciting topics have been planned for the eight-week program including: policies, accreditation, laws, and the investigation and prosecution of cases. Students will observe an actual radar assignment. Weather permitting, field trips may include a tour of the Marshfield Rod and Gun Club with lec-tures on gun safety and shooting, tours of the Plymouth County Sheriff’s Department Bureau of Criminal Investigation, House of Corrections and Mobile Command Center, the Plymouth Dis-trict Court, State Police Airwing, Medflight, and the Duxbury Police Station. There will be stop stick, K-9, motorcycle and Tactical Team demonstrations as well as many guest speakers.

Class size is limited to 14 due to the seating capacity of “Sa-die.” Please contact Linda Hayes at 781-934-5774 to reserve your seat in the class no later than Sept. 17.

Groups will include the Salem Trayned Band (17th century pikemen,) the Hingham Militia (Revolutionary War,) the 22nd Massachusetts Infantry (Civil War,) the 35th Virginia Cavalry

(across from Tsang's)

eight Thursdays from 9:30 a.m. to 12 noon at the Senior Center. Seniors of all ages are welcome to participate.

When the seniors first ar-rive, James and her fellow teacher, Sgt. Kristin Golden, have the “new recruits” fill out background checks and paper-work just like any other police academy rookie.

From there, seniors go on ride-a-longs, to see what daily life is like as a Duxbury po-lice officer. They also go to court to sit in on cases, travel to the Plymouth County Jail, and get a gun safety lesson at the Marshfield Rod and Gun Club. Last year, the group got a tour of Duxbury Bay from Harbormaster Don Beers and visited the helicopter facilities of MedFlight and the State Po-lice air wing.

Although the classes are

sometimes limited by the number of people who can fit in the Senior Center’s “Sadie” bus, the program has been so popular the police often find themselves giving seniors rides in cruisers.

“Kristen and I have a hard time saying no,” said James. “We have a lot of people who have taken the class over and over again.”

James feels the academy helps break down the barriers between the senior population and police.

“They realize we’re peo-ple just like they are, it closes that gap between the public and the police department. I just thoroughly enjoy my time with them,” she said.

Although many of the classes and field trips in the academy are fun, there is also an important safety aspect. Senior are often the most vul-nerable population in town to

certain types of crime.“I think scams are a big

issue right now, between the internet and telephone calls,” said James. She said seniors who have participated in the academy are often more likely to call police with a question or concern.

The academy ends with a graduation ceremony. Par-ticipants are allowed to invite members of their family to a dinner at the senior center. Town officials and other digni-taries are often in attendence.

“It just makes a nice end-ing to the 8-10 weeks,” said James. “We encourage them to keep in contact, they can come and visit us anytime.”

There are still a few spots left for the Senior Police Acad-emy. Contact Linda Hayes at 781-934-5774 to reserve your seat in the class.

The Duxbury School Committee isn’t usually in the business of giving grades. However, they gave them-selves passing marks at their first meeting of the academic year –– although Chairman George Cipolletti added there was “room for improvement.”

Each year, the committee does a self-evaluation. They rate themselves on a scale of 1 to 5 on professionalism, com-munication and stewardship. The committee gave them-selves a 3.68 on stewardship, and a 3.2 on communication, and the lowest score was a 3 in professionalism. However, Cipolletti admitted the scores were widely spread out.

“There’s room for im-provement,” Cipolletti said.

Committee member Mau-reen Connolly talked about the desire to support administrator versus listening to the pub-lic at large as a “fundamental difference” between School Committee members

“One of their goals,” she said, referring to guidelines from the state, “is to preserve the school committee as the voice of parents and taxpay-ers. I think that’s something we have to keep in mind on this committee.”

Committee member Anne Ward talked about different strategies for solving problems and increased participation in professional development events as ways to improve.

“We can use these as jump-ing off points to how we work together as a committee,” she said.

Connolly asked if the group was going to read the self-evaluation comments in detail, but Cipolletti said that should be saved for the com-mittee’s workshop meeting on Sept. 23 at the high school. The time is not yet finalized, but Cipolletti said it would be posted according to the Open Meeting Law.

“I look forward to talking about this in more depth at our workshop,” said Karen Wong.

In other business the School Committee:

• Listened as each build-ing principal introduced their new teaching staff.

• Heard from Superinten-dent Susan Skeiber that at-tendance in the district has in-creased this year, although the preliminary attendance fig-ures are only one student off from the district’s projections. Skeiber said part of the issue may be parents pulling their children out of private schools and putting them back in pub-lic education. “That is a trend that seems to be continuing this year,” she said. Official attendance numbers will not be available until Oct. 1.

• Were told by Anne Ward that Town Manager Richard MacDonald is asking all de-partments to come up with two budgets for the next fis-cal year. One is a level-funded budget (meaning the same amount of money, but often resulting in de facto cuts be-cause of rising fixed costs like health insurance and utilities) and another budget that repre-sents a three percent reduction over last year’s budget.

• Chairman George Cipol-letti said that traffic around the high school in the morning has become clogged. “As busing gets more expensive it’s just going to get worse,” he said. He wanted the superintendent to sit down with the police de-partment and come up with a traffic plan similar to gradua-tion. Skeiber said she would look into it.

• Went into executive ses-sion for collective bargaining issues.

sents the first alternative en-ergy device on town property and an educational bonanza for Duxbury students.

Almost two years ago, the drive for the solar panel start-ed through the Massachusetts Technology Collaborative, eventually netting 211 dona-tions, according to Sustainable Duxbury Co-Chairman Jim Savicki. The solar array was installed over the summer and began generating electricity in July. The panels are essen-tially maintenance free and the energy provided goes directly to Chandler.

“It’s our hope that these kids are going to see it, and grow up with it,” said Savicki. “There has been a lot of appre-hensiveness about [alternative energy] in the past.”

Through software provid-ed by the company Heliotron-ics, students at Chandler, as well as across the district, will be able to monitor the power output and other statistics from the solar panel. Teachers will be able to use this information in the classroom.

Superintendent Susan Skeiber said that alternative energy will become just anoth-er part of the school’s science curriculum in the future.

“I think it’s another piece of education our schools are going to provide for our kids going forward,” she said. She pointed out that in discussions regarding the feasibility study for the middle school and high school, approved by voters this spring, the idea of green tech-nology has been a big issue.

Skeiber said a group of teachers from all levels has already attended training ses-sions, learning how to use the software and apply it in the classrooms. After Tuesday’s ribbon cutting ceremony, He-liotronics President Clayton Handleman gave a hands-on demonstration to staffers. He said teachers should be able to tie in lessons on science, phys-ics and math, all using the so-lar panels.

Savicki hopes that the array will generate a youth movement for green energy in Duxbury. He pointed to the re-cent Island Creek Oyster Fes-

tival, where a core of young volunteers helped Sustainable Duxbury recycle or compost 90 percent of the trash pro-duced.

“It’s good to see younger folks involved,” he said. “By the time these kids are my age they may have these things in their homes.”

Setting the blueprint for giving back

Although a steady downpour kept the sand soggy and had patrons running from tent to tent in an effort to stay dry, the Island Creek Oyster Festival

was a smashing success on Saturday. Thousands packed into Blakeman’s and along Duxbury Beach to enjoy food, drink, music and fun under the big white tents.

Those Island Creek guys sure know how to throw a party. But what might get lost in the flurry of oyster shooters and reggae music is the fact that this particular party is all for a good cause. Those 40,000 raw oysters being shucked at a maniacal pace throughout the evening were all donated by the growers of Island Creek to raise money for the event’s beneficiaries.

The Island Creek Oyster Festival always had a charitable component, but in the last couple of years it has solidified with the forming of the Island Creek Foundation. Outside of the festival, 10 percent of the collective’s profits every year go to their foundation.

Island Creek seems always willing to donate oysters for other charity events. The recently helped seed an oyster bed in Boston Harbor that will hopefully curb pollution. They’ve supported local charities like Crossroads for Kids and Children Without Borders, as well as local organizations like the Duxbury Art Association and the Duxbury Bay Maritime School. And now they’re even reaching around the world to Zanzibar, where the company is working with Wood’s Hole Oceanographic Institute to help create sustainable aquaculture.

It might have been a heck of a party Saturday night. But at its heart is a local company that’s a shining example of social responsibility. So this next oyster shooter is for you, Island Creek. You deserve it.

–– J. Graeber

The 22nd annual CoastSweep Beach Clean-up is scheduled for Saturday, Sept. 19. from 9 a.m. and 12 noon on Saturday the 19th. Refreshments will be pro-vided. For more informa-tion, please call Jeanine Boyle at Battelle 781-934-0571.

The quality of life in our beautifully bu-colic town of Dux-

bury is something that most residents don’t contemplate on a daily basis. Like the ocean air we breathe, the peacefulness of our town is unobtrusive, yet reassuring. We are fortunate to live in a town which sees very little criminal activity or restless youths. It is easy to overlook the underlying support structure of our police department, as the majority of residents only come in contact with the department during an emergency situation, and then they are indispensable. We trust that the police will al-ways be there when we need them, which is how it should be. However, now the police department needs our support.

Under Police Chief Mark Deluca’s leadership for the past ten years, our police de-partment has become a state accredited agency. The de-partment has shed a number of problematic personnel over the years, leaving the police force with dedicated, trustworthy and highly regarded individu-als. The number of programs that Chief Deluca has instituted or enhanced over his tenure is lengthy, and includes:

• Safety and education pro-grams at the Senior Center for seniors citizens including Al-zheimer talks, safe driving tips, car maintenance tips and senior police academy; established an Elder Affairs Bureau within the Department;

• Programs for school chil-

dren, including DARE, junior police academy, scouting group education; safety and education programs such as Halloween safety, bicycle safety and prop-er car seat installation educa-tion;

• Women’s self defense programs such as RAD;

• First responder training for officers responding to peo-ple with disabilities;

• Outreach programs for parents of disabled children to interact with emergency per-sonnel;

• Supporting the Student Union from concept to reality, giving our young people a posi-tive place to meet after school;

• Supporting the Grad Nite celebration from 2001 to pres-ent;

• The PAL program - where many of our young athletes par-ticipate in exercise and training programs;

• Implemented drug testing for all Duxbury police officers;

• Wrote and established new policies, procedures, rules and regulations, as well as a new mission statement for the department;

• Expanded the K-9 pro-gram, established a department firearms training program, developed a successful grant-writing unit;

• Reaches out personally to residents in need at any time of the day or night.

Chief Deluca also had the honor of being selected as an appointee to the 30-member National Committee for the

International Association of Chiefs of Police.

I am writing this letter not from the perspective of being a friend of the Chief’s; in fact I have never met him personally. I am writing this appeal to the citizens of Duxbury merely as a resident who enjoys the quality of life led in this town and out of concern for the direction that Duxbury will go in if we lose such a competent and compas-sionate Chief of Police.

Please show your support for our Police Chief Mark De-luca by signing the petition to “Keep the Chief”, available online at ipetitions.com/peti-tion/keepchiefdeluca. You may also contact the Board of Se-lectmen and Town Manager to voice your opinion, or ask the Board of Selectmen and Town Manager to renew the Chief’s contract at their next meeting. Time is running out to undo the mistake of not renewing his contract.

Keeping Chief Deluca is in the best interest of all of our residents, including our chil-dren, senior citizens, business owners, employees, visitors, and families. We have been honored for him serve this town in the capacity of Chief, and believe whole-heartedly that Chief Deluca should con-tinue to serve. If you want to know more, contact me at [email protected]. Thank you.

Perhaps it may seem blasphemous at first, and certainly it would

require quite a cooperative ef-fort, but wouldn’t Clark’s Is-land, with its exposure to the

elements, make an ideal site not just for one windmill but for a power generating wind farm and perhaps even a solar power station as well? Wind farms look a bit spooky, but are not as

unattractive as one might think, and such a facility might take a big chunk out of the whole county’s power bills.

Warren EmersonArlington, Virginia

The wind is getting strongerWind energy is free and in Duxbury we have

plenty of wind. Excellent editorial in the Clipper on Aug. 26. The article about The

Alternative Energy Committee in Duxbury indicates that there is now wind in the sail for wind turbines in town. I have been a strong advocate for wind turbines for a long time. Many of our neighboring coastal towns are already well underway to get wind turbine locations and projects approved with grants from The Mass. Renewable Energy Trust. “Should area towns be aggressively pursuing development of wind-generated power?” The answer is: “Absolutely, and the sooner the better.”

There are a lot of misconceptions about wind turbine information, as also expressed by town planner Tom Broadrick in the

article. I will stress that the information is often completely misleading and used by opponents, who do not want to have any wind turbines in their back yard, also called the NIMBY effect.

Some facts cannot be repeated too often about the relationship between wind turbines, people, nature, landscape and environment. A study by the Danish Wind Industry Association after many years of experience with wind turbines has the following facts.

• It is the law in Denmark that the noise level must not exceed 44 dB. This is the sound level equivalent to ordinary speech. There is an aerodynamic noise from the wing blades cutting through the air and the mechanical noise from gear and generator. The low frequency noise level is not a problem for people.

• It is a myth that birds and windmill blades collide. It is proven with radar that migrating birds fly past wind turbines. More birds collide with power lines.

• Off shore turbines are normally bigger, more economical to manufacture per KW output and produces approx. 50 pct more energy due to more consistent wind. Off shore foundations increase the local variety of marine life and quite often attracts new fish. The Cape Wind project in Nantucket Sound is only common sense.

• On shore turbines are smaller but easier to install and maintain.

• The most economical and typical turbine on land is 1,000 KW with a tower height of 200 to 260 ft and a rotor diameter of 175 ft for a total height of 290 to 350 Ft. The size of the turbine blades depends on the local wind conditions. More wind can equal smaller turbines.

• Wind turbines indirectly reduce CO2 emissions by reducing fossil fuel burned in large coal fired power plants.

• With sites and moderate wind on shore, a wind turbine will recover all the energy spent in its manufacture, installation and maintenance in less than three months.

• It is essential, that a windmill fits the surrounding environment and nature and has a safe distance to the closest neighbor. The recommended distance is four times the total height. This reduces flickering defined as the shadow and blade rotation from the windmill.

So what will one or more wind turbines look like in the Duxbury skyline? Look at the picture of three wind mills from a typical landscape in Denmark close to a small town. Denmark is approximately twice the size in area as Massachusetts and with 5.5 million people is the leading country in the world in developing and installing wind turbines. More than 5,200 wind turbines today generate more than 20 percent of the electricity by far the largest in Europe. In 15 – 20 years new and old wind turbines are planned to account for half of Denmark’s electrical production capacity.

After 25 years in Duxbury I look forward to taking a walk and looking at a few wind turbines, rather than looking at the Pilgrim Nuclear Power Plant and thinking about escape routes.

As did many of you, I recently received by e-mail, a docu-

ment claiming to be an analy-sis of the health care bill. It presented about 140 differ-ent supposedly terrible things about the pending legislation, all cited by page number.

In reading the document, I noted a number of alarming things. These included:

• The document was sent without identifying its origin. Anonymity sometimes raises suspicions.

• It claims to be an analy-sis of the “ObamaCare bill,” which actually doesn’t exist. At this time there are five dif-ferent bills under development in the House and the Senate. the Administration has very deliberately had nothing to do with the development of any of them.

The person who suppos-edly analyzed the nonexistent bill was described as “a former Marine from Phoenix.” No

other qualification was pro-vided. I wonder, what makes a “former Marine from Phoe-nix” qualified to analyze such complex legislation. Could it be that we should be asking a former sailor from Boston, a plumber from Ohio, or even a governor from Alaska?

The bill that is finally con-sidered by the Congress will be the work of the Conference Committee and will likely have bits and pieces from all the bills currently being worked on. The President will certainly have a say in how the final bill turns out.

There has been agree-ment between the administra-tion, the leaders of Congress, the American Hospital Asso-ciation, the American Medical Association, and a large part of the pharmaceutical industry, on a set of principles that will ulti-mately serve as the core struc-ture of whatever bill finally comes out.

The most important thing

that the Administration, the Congress, and our nation’s health care leaders agree on is that our current system is terribly broken, and unless it is fixed, it will bankrupt the country, and severely impact the health and welfare of the majority of American families, individuals, and businesses. We can’t afford to wait any longer!

Given that the American people and the providers of healthcare will benefit greatly from healthcare reform, who could possibly want to distrib-ute the kind of nonsense I de-scribed above? I bet you have figured it out already.

America is on a threshold of creating one of the most im-portant reforms in the last 80 years. It would be foolish to al-low this effort to be destroyed by the lethal sabotage of a few powerful special interests.

We can not begin to express our most heartfelt thanks

to this wonderful town of Dux-bury. From the moment word got out that we had lost our precious Coco the outpouring of love, caring and support has overwhelmed us. The meals,

flowers, phone calls, e-mails, and friends stopping just to hug us has not stopped. We have been so grateful. Looking around the church on Thursday you could feel the love and com-passion giving all of the Stouts strength. A special thank you to The Winsor House, A Catered

Affair, Foodie’s and all our friends who made us such won-derful meals. Rev. Roy Tripp is helping us to walk a path that is new to us and we thank him. You all are in our hearts forev-er, right next to Coco. Many, many thanks.

Happy Fifth Anniversary, Rev. Cullen! In Sep-tember 2004, Rev. Catherine Cullen became the new settled minister at First Parish Church

Unitarian Universalist. It had been over a quarter of a century since the previous settled minister, Robbie Walsh had first taken to the pulpit. Rev. Cullen’s first worship service at First Parish was also the “Ingathering Sunday” service that year, where the church members celebrated a Water Communion. “Our water communion represents the pooling of our experiences, our talents, our energies, our joys and our sorrows as we come together in commu-nity to begin a new church year, and a new shared minis-try, ” Rev. Cullen told her congregation that first service.

Catherine Cullen greets her congregation at her first ser-vice at First parish Church in September 2004.

“Is this normal?” parents and teachers of young boys may ask themselves. Dr. An-thony Rao, will challenge and enlighten parents with con-structive strategies for raising confident boys on Thursday, Oct. 1 at 7 p.m. at Duxbury’s Performing Arts Center. Psy-chologist and author of the just-released book, The Way of Boys: Raising Healthy Boys in a Challenging and Complex World, Dr. Rao will discuss the expectations and attitudes towards young boys today, why some boys struggle be-haviorally in the early school years and why the tendency to medicate and treat active boy-hood as a disorder has reached

alarming levels.Dr. Rao holds a Ph.D. in

psychology from Vanderbilt University and trained as a pe-diatric psychologist at Boston Children’s Hospital. For more

than 20 years he worked in the Department of Psychiatry at Children’s Hospital and as an instructor at Harvard Medical School in the field of Cogni-tive Behavior Therapy. He is the founder of Behavioral So-lutions in Lexington, a private practice known throughout the Boston area for using behav-ior-cognitive therapy to help children without relying solely on medications. Dr. Rao con-sults with families, parenting groups and professionals who work with children.

Dr. Rao has been a featured expert on documentaries for the A&E series Investigative Reports and MTV’s True Life series. He is quoted in articles in The NewYorker and Par-ent’s Magazine, and has writ-ten articles on childhood issues for the Boston Herald. His edi-torial letters and opinions have appeared in the Boston Globe, Newsweek, Scientific Ameri-can, and New York Magazine.

This event is sponsored by The Parent Connection. Tick-ets are available for $5 begin-ning September 15 at www.theparentconnection.org or by check at Westwinds book store, Foodie’s of Duxbury and the Duxbury Free Library.

I stumbled over my words, to tell the truth. I welcomed Razia home, and her home is

Afghanistan. Razia Jan’s heart and soul is the Zabuli School for girls in Deh Subz, Afghanistan, on the outskirts of Kabul. Her job, on the other hand, is to work as a program director for Arzu Rugs, a not-for-profit group that supports local rug weaving in Afghanistan while providing required educational and health services to the weavers and their families.

But Razia came home to Duxbury for the Ramadan Dinner offered by the Duxbury Interfaith Council and the Muslim Families of Duxbury last Sunday evening. After she spoke, I felt less confused.

“It’s like seeing a friend from college

after twenty years,” she said. “After a few seconds, you feel like you have never been apart. That’s how it is for me to be here in Duxbury again. You all make me feel so at home, you are so gracious to me.”

Razia’s whirlwind three-day visit was consumed by her preparations for the dinner. Baklava – I’ve never tasted better – and a full spread of Afghan foods rich with love, yogurt, savory spices and more love helped an audience of 150 break the day’s fast. Muslims observe the month of Ramadan by

It was bad enough that Coach John Tocci and his boys’ soccer team

had to open its season against archrival Marshfield. But to do it on the Rams’ home field without the services of starters junior Mike Gabrielli (broken foot), junior Zac Gino (hip), and senior Pat Charland (ham-string) made it even more challenging.

Add to that the frightening injury to senior Jim Landry, and it’s even more surprising that the Dragons held it to-gether for the full 90 minutes in a 1-0 win over Marshfield.

Despite a shaky start for both teams, Duxbury had a slight advantage in play even though senior forwards Daniel Sangster and Greg Loreaux were both tightly marked, with Sangster seeing few chances while fighting off a double-team.

Duxbury’s best chance came early in the first half when a Landry header at the ten-minute mark was swatted away by the Marshfield goal-keeper.

Later in the half, Tocci moved Sangster back into the midfield where he found more

room to maneuver, sending a pass up the middle for the speedy Loreaux, who ran onto the ball and blasted a shot on the Marshfield net. The goalie came out to stop Loreaux’s initial shot, but the Duxbury forward collected his rebound and fired home a thunderous shot inside the box for the game-winner.

The game remained score-less for the rest of the half, with the Duxbury defense of Mark Brady, David Hemingway, Steve Blout, Tommy Drummy and goalie Max Cote remain-ing resolute, while a frustrated

Marshfield captain was yellow carded in the first half for a knee to the groin.

The action turned more physical in the second half, as the Ram crowd became more boisterous.

Strong midfield play by Morgan Dwinell, Mitch Bar-rington, Justin McElduff and Landry gave the Dragons an advantage. However, Marsh-field applied pressure late in the half and kept Duxbury on its toes for a solid five min-utes, getting its best chance on a centering pass that was fired on goal, only to be de-

flected away by a Duxbury de-fender. Duxbury held its com-posure as the intensity of the game increased.

With less than three min-utes remaining, Landry was ridden out of bounds and went head first into the stands, send-ing several fans scattering in tears, as he lay motionless while pinned under the first row bench. Landry was taken to the hospital for observation where he was diagnosed with a badly bruised right shoulder, a sore back, and a concussion.

Beach sweep this weekendThe 22nd annual CoastSweep Beach Clean-up is sched-

uled for Saturday, Sept. 19. The event is sponsored by Bat-telle, the Duxbury Beach Preservation Society and the Jones River Landing Environmental Heritage Center. The clean-up is part of a nation-wide effort organized by the Center of Ma-rine Conservation in Washington D.C.

Last year, volunteers collected over 2460 pounds of trash from Duxbury Beach! Volunteers not only help to make Massachusetts’ shorelines and water bodies cleaner and safer, but they also record information about the types and amounts of debris collected at each site. This information is sent to the Ocean Conservancy’s International Coastal Cleanup program where the data is analyzed and used to develop programs aimed at reducing marine debris world-wide.

So make sure to bring your family and friends and lend the beach a helping hand!

Volunteers can pick up collection supplies and data sheets at the east end of the Powder Point Bridge between 9 a.m. and 12 noon on Saturday the Sept. 19. Refreshments will be provided.

For more information, please call Jeanine Boyle at Bat-telle 781-934-0571.


A ray of hope for Afghan girls


fasting during daylight hours and feasting (in a reasonable way) with family and friends after dark.

Izhar Kazmi sung the Azan, the call to prayer in Arabic, and announced that the fast could be broken. While hungry guests scarfed up the traditional treats already at their tables, the Muslims proceeded to the easterly corner of the room to quietly complete their evening prayers, led by Suheil Laher, Izhar’s son-in-law.

Suheil serves as the Imam, the Muslim Chaplain at MIT in Cambridge. He’s also a doctoral student in Arabic and Islamic Studies at Harvard.

“And he is one who knows the Qur’an by heart,” explained his proud father-in-law. Such people are known by the title “Hafiz Qur’an,” literally, “guardian of the Qur’an.” A woman would be called a “Hafiza.”

Suheil gave a brief and clear explanation of the main tenets of Islam, the so-called “Five Pillars,” and finished by explaining that many of the problems regarding women and women’s rights have nothing to do with Islam or the Qur’an, but are errors stemming from various cultures. Often the Qur’an and the life of the Prophet Mohammed stand directly opposed to such abuses, abuses that once ran unchecked in the world. So Razia’s work is well supported by Islam.

“The men from the village, and the boys’ madrassa across the street tell me that men are the future of Afghanistan,” Razia said. “I tell them, ‘No. Women are your eyes. Without us, you are blind! And then we help them with their school, with whatever they need.’”

Thus, Zabuli School for girls lives through each day in a place where anything can happen, as it did one day for Khodaija, a girl who wanted to go to school. She attended briefly, but was then blocked by her family. She is an orphan, now raised by an uncle who pulled her from the school.

Razia’s film about the school showed the moment when her aunt consented to Khodaija’s return to school, and showed us the look in the girl’s eyes when she said, “Here they support me. In this school, I have a mother and father again.”

You can still help support the Zabuli School for girls by sending a donation to Razia’s Ray of Hope Foundation (Patti Quigley, Executive Director), P.O. Box 81052, Wellesley, MA 02481, or call 781-431-7894. You can be a glimmer of hope, a ray shining in the eyes of Afghanistan.

The Dragons came back after the incident and almost scored when Eric Larsen had a chance late in the game, but the netminding of Cote and the play of the defense held on for the shutout.

“We played as a team to-day. We made some mistakes,

but everyone seemed to back-up up each other,” said Tocci. “We came here to play soccer and protect each other and I was proud of the fact that we didn’t retaliate like we would have in the past.”

The boys will now enter-tain Scituate on Thursday af-ternoon at 4.

‘TEMPO’ kicks off at SSC


Dragons’ DenSports Editor Mike Halloran • [email protected]


They didn’t wheel any wooden horse behind the Dux-bury defense. They just went toe-to-toe and ran at will on their opening drive, moving the ball 90 yards in 14 plays and overcoming a 15-yard penalty in the process.

Such was the opening sal-vo facing the Dragons, as they

dropped their season opener to Bridgewater-Raynham, 28-7, on the new turf field at Ray-mond Chandler Field on Fri-day night.

Winners of 13 straight games in 2008, including a 15-0 win over the Trojans in Bridgewater, Duxbury’s mounting injuries and inex-perience took its toll on the home team when they ran out of weapons in trying to battle back from a 14-0 deficit.

“They are a very good team and have a lot of return-ing players and we don’t,” said Duxbury Coach Dave Maima-ron. “I think their experience and our inexperience showed tonight.”

B-R senior running back Isaiah Johnson took his team out of a hole immediately,

shredding the Duxbury de-fense for 30 yards on the second play of the game and establishing himself as the team’s workhorse.

From then on Johnson car-ried seven more times during the drive and finished it off with a 6-yard run around the right side for a 7-0 lead after Mike Chicoine’s PAT.

Duxbury’s starting QB Matt O’Keefe had a rude greet-ing in his first varsity start, get-ting sacked for an 8-yard loss on first down and going three downs and out.

Taking over on their own 49 after a Ben Startzell punt, the Trojans needed just five plays to make it 14-0, as Chi-coine rumbled 18 yards for a TD and kicked the PAT.

Having gotten his feet wet on his first series, O’Keefe set-tled down and felt more com-fortable in the pocket after a 14-yard run by sophomore Henry Buonagurio. Passes to senior captains Matt Savard and Pat McWilliams moved the ball all the way down to the 24.

On the next play O’Keefe took off out of the pocket and was nailed at the 15-yard line where he coughed up the ball to end the drive.

The Duxbury defense held the fort, getting the ball back on their own 38 with 2:02 re-maining in the half, but failed

to move the ball down field far enough when the drive stalled and ended on a 42-yard field goal attempt by Startzell that went wide right.

Duxbury’s problems looked like they would con-tinue in the second half when it fumbled the opening kick-off and started its drive at the 9-yard line.

Three passes to senior tight

end CJ Cote and three runs by Buonagurio suddenly had the ball at midfield, as Dux- bury found a magic formula for moving the chains. Five more carries by Buonagurio and a couple of completions by O’Keefe moved the ball to the four-yard line, where the sophomore signal-caller left the pocket and ran to the right corner for a TD. Startzell’s

PAT was good and the Drag-ons were back in the game.

“Henry did a great job for us in the preseason and he did it once again tonight.”

A fired up Duxbury de-fense stopped the Trojans on their next series, only to have B-R’s punt pin the Dragons back on their own four-yard line.

Duxbury could do little in three downs and punted the ball right back, putting the vis-itors at the Duxbury 49 with 8:22 left in the game. On the first play QB Mike Connolly faked a handoff and cut off his right guard, scampering 49 yards for a TD and putting an end to the Dragons’ comeback hopes.

“We dug in there for awhile, then we turned the ball over too much,” said the Dux-bury coach.

Trailing 21-7 and needing an immediate score, O’Keefe dropped back on second down and fired to his right where Neil Harrington was waiting in the wings to pick off the er-rant pass and head into the end zone to cap the evening for the visitors.

“We lost our best defen-sive player early in JB Mar-ston (knee) and then we lost Pat McWilliams (two-way starter). We ended up playing six or seven sophomores out there on defense.”

The Dragons will get their chance to get back on the win-ning track on Thursday night when they travel to Plymouth North to take on the Eagles at 7 p.m.

Despite losing three key members from last year’s 18-2 team, Coach Jack Stod-dard seems to have little worry about his boys’ golf team du-plicating last year’s success.

“We’re going to be a very strong team this year even though we lost some key play-ers,” said Stoddard. “We’re a young team, but these kids have experience and have played a lot of tournaments this summer and have worked real hard.”

The loss of Phil Sciretta (Nobles), along with Mark Te-deschi and Wes Barrington to graduation, accounts for half of Stoddard’s starters in 2008, but junior captain Jonathan Stoddard will lead a quartet of capable classmates who the coach feels is ready to hold its own.

Juniors Billy Curley, James Magner, Stephan Krall, and Kevin Cuckuk will be joined by sophomore Curtis Owen and Stoddard to make up the Dragons’ top six, while sopho-mores Trevor Barrington and Cam Daley, along with fresh-men Bobby O’Brien and Nick Drago will vie for the remain-ing two starting slots.

“You always figure on los-ing players to graduation, but losing Sciretta was tough,”

said Stoddard. “I think Magner is the kid who is going to re-place Phil. He dedicated him-self to getting better this sum-mer by playing at the Harmon Club and did extremely well at the CYO Tournament and the Challenge Cup in RI.”

Curley will also battle for a top three slot and proved he wants it by playing a lot of golf this summer and show-ing he can be a very consistent scorer, while the big decision for Krall over vacation was deciding to pass on football and concentrate on his golf game, which he obviously did according to Stoddard.

Cuckuk returns after a solid 2008 season and gives Duxbury an experienced golfer in the number five slot where most schools will have a struggle to match the Drag-on’s depth.

Owen has had a tremen-dous growth spurt over the summer and is hitting the ball a mile, according to Stoddard. “I think all he needs right now to be a major player for us is consistency.”

The Keenan division in the Patriot League will play stroke play this season, so the seventh and eighth slots will now play an important role in tallying up the score.

Last year the teams took the five best scores from the

six players who teed off. This year the scores from the best six out of eight scores will de-termine the winner. When the Dragons take on members of the Fisher Division, the eight players will be involved in match play.

“The coaches decided that playing this way would make everyone better players and they’d be ready for post sea-son play,” said Stoddard.

It appears that the four-some battling it out for the remaining starting spots have been taking things very seri-ously.

“Daley played a lot of golf at the Marshfield CC this sum-mer and has really been hitting the ball a long way, while Bar-rington came out of nowhere and has really impressed me with his game that he pol-ished up on at the Indian Pond course in Kingston.”

Rookies O’Brien and Drago are also making seri-ous bids, with O’Brien look-ing like he has a leg up on the competing foursome.

“Bobby has been playing in tournaments for the past three or four years. He’s not a big kid, but he’s consistent with his scores and hits the ball right down the middle of the fairway. Drago has definitely improved his game by play-ing at the Harmon Club and it

shows in his short game.”Other players who will

make up the 2009 squad in-clude: senior Zach Benoit (his game shows steady improve-ment), sophomores Pat Gearin (has worked on his game at the North Hill course) and Jeff Gaita, along with freshmen John Higgins and Jack Ball.

Although the team is loaded with underclassmen, Stoddard is confident that the Dragons are the team to beat in the Patriot League.

“Hingham always has a good team, and Hanover and Pembroke played us tough last year, but I really feel we are the team to beat. We may be young, but all our kids have experience and have been play-ing for two or three years.”

After opening the season last week against Xaverian, the Dragons are hoping to best last year’s fifth-place finish in the state finals.

Time for golf to reload

WILLING IT IN: Junior captain Jonathan Stoddard likes his shot on the 6th hole at Brook Meadows.


Despite optimism that the DHS boys’ golf team should do okay this season, they got off on the wrong foot last Wednesday by dropping a 240-248 decision to Xaverian Brothers High School at the Brook Meadows golf course in Canton.

The new school start didn’t exactly help, as they ar-

rived 15 minutes prior to their match and had little time to warm up.

James Magner and Jona-than Stoddard carried the load for the Dragons, as both players recorded a birdie and five pars while on their way to rounds of 38 and 39, respectively.

The gap widened after that, as Bob O’Brien (42), Stephan Krall (43), Kevin Kuckuk (43) and Billy Curley (43) finished off the scoring for Duxbury.

Anthony Green and An-drew Stewart lead the Hawks with rounds of 38.

The team came back the next day with a 246-252 Patriot

League win over Silver Lake.Stoddard was low man

once again with a round of 38 that included seven bird-ies on the Duxbury Yacht Club course, while Curtis Owen came in with a score of 40.

Curley (41), Magner (42), freshman Nick Drago (42), and rounds of 43 from O’Brien and Krall helped put the Drag-ons in the win column.

After opening the week with a home match with Sand-wich, the Dragons hit the road for league matches with Sci-tuate, Whitman-Hanson, and North Quincy.

Golfers split opening week


Sophomore goaltender Sophie Fitzpatrick shutout the Marshfield Rams in her first varsity start, as the Lady Dragons rolled to a 3-0 win in the season opener for both teams last Friday afternoon in Marshfield.

Senior captain Mimi Smith gave her team an early lead when she broke down the left side and fired a shot to beat the Marshfield netminder for a 1-0 lead.

Siobahn McCarthy would give Duxbury an insurance goal five minutes later on a penalty corner, and Briana Connolly would close out the scoring in the second half with another penalty corner.

“Sophie did a nice job in net and really helps our de-fense with her big clears,” said Coach Pam Manley. “It was nice to beat Marshfield after losing to them twice last year, but we can play better than we did. We weren’t playing under control and I’m sure the rain

had a lot to do with it.”The team will entertain

Notre Dame on Wednesday afternoon at 3:45 p.m.

Ballet program reaches out to young students

José Mateo Ballet Theatre instructor Melinda Marculetiu still remembers the lessons she learned from her first ballet

teacher. “When I was six years old,” Melinda said, “she challenged me to get my hands on the ground with my knees straight. She gave me

five days to do it. It moti-vated me, and, by Friday, I could.” Now Melinda, a teacher herself, passes on this lesson in personal responsibility and de-termination to her own students. “Discipline is very strong in ballet,” she says, “but I would like to give them life les-sons as well.” Her stu-dents at Duxbury’s José

Mateo Ballet Theatre Young Dancers Program at South Shore Conservatory, take these lessons to heart.

Melinda comes to José Mateo from a 17-year-career as a professional dancer in Europe, including the Croatian National Ballet in Za-greb, Croatia. In 2002, she traveled with her husband to the United States and joined the faculty of JMBT in Cambridge. “This is not just your corner dance studio,” she said. “It is a serious ballet school.” Young dancers are expected to put in the hours required for strength, agility and technique, yet the com-pany is unique in the dance world because of its open door philosophy: it welcomes diversity in its student population. “Everybody has a right to quality dance education,” Melinda said. “Every. Body.” There is no entry audition for the school. Instead, all students must possess is self-motivation and a love of dance.

José Mateo Ballet Theatre started its Young Dancers Program at South Shore Conservatory in 1998. From the beginning, the two entities have been a perfect pair. The Young Dancers Program offers formal instruction in classical ballet for dancers beginning at age three. Ac-knowledging that children develop an interest in ballet at varying stages, Ballet Theatre offers a broad range of classes allowing children to enter the program any time between the ages of three and nine.

Seven years ago, five-year-old Grace Houghton starting dancing in the program. Her

mother, Inge, says, “little did we realize at the time what a huge asset this school would turn out to be!” Melinda, a prime example JMBT’s exceptional quality of instruction, started teach-ing Grace at SSC last year. Inge says, “Right away, we realized the dedication Melinda had in helping her students recognize their full po-tential, making them aware of the importance of all aspects of ballet; strength, stretching, technique, self-discipline, and even nutrition.” Grace will audition this Saturday in Cambridge for the José Mateo production of The Nutcrack-er, which will be performed at the Performing Arts Center this December.

“I feel really strongly about what I do,” Melinda says. “Kids love their ballet teachers like they love their first-grade-teacher -- like they love their mom. I can give them the tools to become the best dancers they can be.” She hopes to pass that same love of the art, which she learned from her first ballet teacher, to this next generation of ballerinas.

To learn more about José Mateo Ballet Theatre’ s Young Dancers Program, call South Shore Conservatory at 781-934-2731, ext 10, or go online to www.sscmusic.org. Classes start the week of Sept. 21.

The 505 (5.05 meters) is an in-ternationally popular two-man racing sailboat. This year, the

World Championships were held at the San Francisco Yacht Club on San Fran-cisco Bay. A dozen countries were repre-sented by 98 boats. Mike Holt and crew Carl Smit, who grew up in Duxbury and always considered Duxbury Bay his backyard, battled for first place through the last day of nine races. They came in second.

In 1988, Carl represented the North East District as skipper of the triple-hand-ed Junior National Championships Sears Cup.

Carl started racing 505s with fellow Duxbury sailor Art Gleason in 1992. In 1994, he became collegiate sloop cham-pion.

Also in 1994-1995 Carl was captain of the Naval Academy sailing team. That year they became national champions.

This is Carl’s fourth 505 World Cham-pionships racing with Holt and his sixth overall.

The Duxbury Free Library announces the start of its an-

nual Fourth Friday Film se-ries. Our opening film. “Mak-ing Mr. Right,” will screen on Friday, Sept. 25 at 7 p.m. in the Merry Room, library lower level. Led by James Mandrell, library trustee and professor of film at Brandeis University, the series is designed for the over-18 crowd and meets ev-ery fourth Friday. Film screen-ings are preceded and fol-lowed by lively discussion led by Prof. Mandrell. Admission is free and refreshments are available.

The theme of this year’s series is “Small(er) Films” and the complete list can be found below and at www.duxbury-freelibrary.org. For further information, 781-934-2721 x100.

Sept. 25: “Making Mr. Right” (USA 1987) dir. Susan Seidelman. 98 mins. A quirk-ily charming romantic comedy starring John Malkovich in a dual role as a scientist and the android he’s created, both of whom must contend with an ad executive played by Ann Magnuson. Also starring Ben Masters, Laurie Metcalfe, and Polly Bergen.

Oct. 23: Frenzy (UK 1970) dir. Alfred Hitchcock. 116 mins. Hitchcock’s penultimate film and it’s a doozy, with an all-star cast that includes Jon Finch, Barry Foster, Barbara Leigh-Hunt, Anna Massey, Alec McCowen, Vivien Mer-chant, Billie Whitelaw, Clive Swift, Bernard Cribbins, Mi-chael Bates, and Jean Marsh. Quick question: when you set out to throttle someone, how do you match the necktie to the person?

Nov. 27: “Daytrippers” (USA 1996) dir. Greg Mottola. 87 minutes. Rated R. Some-times even a day trip with fam-ily can be a little too much, especially if it lasts for hours. On the other hand, who could resist a trip that included, one way or another, Stanley Tucci, Hope Davis, Pat McNamara, Anne Meara, Parker Posey, Liev Schreiber, and Campbell Scott?

Jan. 22: “Far From Heav-en” (USA 2002) dir. Todd Haynes. 107 mins. PG-13. A meticulous and loving recre-ation of a 1950s Hollywood melodrama in which the emo-tional and socio-political un-dercurrents are allowed free play. Finely calibrated perfor-mances by Julianne Moore and Dennis Haysbert allow Dennis Quaid to shine.

Feb. 26: “Volver” (Spain 2006) dir. Pedro Almodóvar. 121 mins. Rated R. Anyone with questions about Pené-lope Cruz’s talent as an actor will have all the answers after watching this film. Almodó-var treads familiar ground and works with some of his favor-ite actresses—including Car-men Maura, Lola Dueñas, and Chus Lampreave—to create a film of genuine emotional resonance.

March 26: “Songcatch-er” (USA 2000) dir. Maggie Greenwald. 109 mins. PG-13. Although somewhat anach-ronistic, the music and Janet McTeer’s pitch-perfect perfor-mance more than make up for whatever is less than apt for the period. With Pat Carrol and Aidan Quinn, as well as a surprisingly affecting Emmy Rossum in her first feature film.

April 23: “Ma vie en rose /My Life in Pink” (France 1997) dir. Alain Berliner 88 mins. Rated R. A family with a secret that it tries desperately to keep under wraps. Eventu-ally, everything comes out—doesn’t it always?—and every-one has to make a choice about what is important to them and why. A subtle and sweet film with 13-year-old Georges Du Fresne in a remarkable debut performance.

May 28: “Next Stop Won-derland” (USA 1998) dir. Brad Anderson. 104 mins. Rated R. Who says that a mother doesn’t know best? Who bet-ter to place a personal ad for her single daughter in a local paper? Yet another romantic comedy with the advantage of terrific writing, outstanding performances, and a Boston location. Not to be missed.

Fourth Friday Film series kicks off soon

PUBLIC NOTICE

Pursuant to Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act, the regulations promulgated thereunder and inter-agency agreements developed there to, metroPCS provides this notice of a proposed telecommunications installation at 842 Tremont Street, Duxbury, Massachusetts. metroPCS is proposing to install antennae at a height of 70 feet above ground level within wireless friendly columns which will replace the existing wood columns on an existing 113 foot steeple. metroPCS is also proposing to install support equipment including cabinets within an approximate 6.5-foot by 9-foot lease area located within a shelter in the existing basement. Utilities will run underground from the existing meter bank and telco demarcation. Coaxial cables will run from the proposed equipment along the basement ceiling to a proposed hatch plate, painted to match, in the existing exterior crawl space window. Cables will then run up a proposed coaxial cable ladder located behind an existing exterior chase which will be accessed by removing existing wood boards and replacing with in kind boards. A proposed hatch plate will be installed in the exterior wall into the existing attic space and then cables will run on the interior of the attic and the steeple to the proposed antennae. A proposed GPS antenna will be installed on the exterior of the steeple. Interested parties may submit written comments on this proposal’s potential effect on historic places to: SAGE Environmental, Inc. (N2188), 172 Armistice Blvd., Pawtucket, RI 02860.
