Hopkinton Wine and Spirits Gives Cut to Hopkinton Education Foundation

Quality wines help education

 

For rest of December, local retailer, Hopkinton Wine & Spirits, will donate $2 from the sale of each bottle of L’École No. 41 wines to the Hopkinton Education Foundation.  The wines include a Chardonnay ($22.99), a Merlot ($29.99), and a Cabernet Sauvignon ($29.99) all from Washington’s Columbia Valley.  Each bottle features a colorful watercolor representation of the L’École winery, which occupies the historic former Frenchtown School in Lowden, Washington.  The painting is the work of 8-year old Ryan Campbell, cousin of the winery owner.

 

"Hopkinton Wine’s creative approach is a wonderful way for a local business to give back to our community," said Kim Pucci, president of the Hopkinton Education Foundation.  "We are grateful for Hopkinton Wine's generous donations each year, which benefit the HEF's mission to foster innovative, high-quality programs benefiting all grade levels and all educational disciplines."

"We are honored to be a corporate sponsor of the Hopkinton Education Foundation and hope to inspire other businesses to come up with innovative ways to support HEF and Hopkinton’s schools,” said Clelland Johnson, proprietor of Hopkinton Wine & Spirits.  “All three of these wines are of exceptional quality, garnering 90-plus ratings from such publications as Wine Spectator, Wine Enthusiast, and Wine & Spirits Magazine, and, I think the packaging, with the
child’s colorful picture of a school building turned winery, represents a perfect way to acknowledge the Education Foundation.” File photo

December 24, 2008 — Today at approximately 7:50 a.m., Troopers assigned to the State Police Barracks in Holden responded to a single vehicle crash on Route 290 West at exit 22 (Main Street) in Shrewsbury.  The crash resulted in one fatality.

A Hopkinton Production by the Sheehan Family Children

 

December 24, 2008 — The children in the 2004 home production of Dickens' A Christmas Carol, 15 years-old at the most, are a bit older now, but the period clothing, the acting, the setting, the editing, the techniques and the production are not diminished by their youth.

      Kudos to the Janet and Timothy Sheehan family children and their cousins for putting on a remarkable presentation with no production cost and a labor of love — and for capturing the spirit of that classic story, something the children did over a two year period.

     So turn the heat down on the night before Christmas and huddle around the computer to see a reprise of a production by talented kids left to their own devices. See it here on HopNews.TV.

Hypocrisy and Mediocrity Battle it Out

Two news titans butt heads

 

by Robert Falcione

 

December 23, 2008 — The Boston Globe reported today, as did the MetroWest Daily News, that the News' parent company, Gatehouse Media, owner of about six daily papers and a gazillion local rags between Boston and the Outer Rim, is unhappy that the Globe is reprinting, without permission, part of the Gatehouse material on the new hyperlocal websites it is creating. Everybody agrees on that fact.

       Gatehouse Media is suing the New York Times, the Globe's parent company, in an effort to get them to smell the coffee, come to their senses and stop using content that is not theirs. All agree on that.

      Gatehouse says the copied material and their accompanying links bypasses the advertising that people would usually see. Mostly true.

      The Globe claims it is within its rights to take snippets of other people's articles, along with a headline, and link to the full story at someone else's site from their own, monetized site. Whoa, put the brakes on that idea.

     It may be okay if your are the Southwest Podunk Citizen Monthly, but not the Boston Globe, which has been the benchmark, the inspiration, and the journalistic standard for generations upon generations of writers throughout the world.

      Alas, if they are in fact still the bellwether of the newspaper business, then let us rue woefully. They have taken up the charge of mediocrity as they offer us a glimpse into their own crystal ball and the grim future of large news media outlets (Globe, please don't die).

      And Gatehouse Media, whose local news people are among HopNews' most frequent readers, says the Globe should hire their own reporters and make their own community contacts. And therein lies the rub.

      If everyone wants to carry and follow the same stories, then it is what we call in my family, mediocrity.

     Now, some people may argue that they see the same subject matter elsewhere, that they see on HopNews. Quite frankly, HopNews turns down feature stories if they are carried elsewhere first; and we are usually on top of unfolding events and news in Hopkinton. So, those people likely saw it first on HopNews. It is our cachet.

      HopNews carries a lot of content that is created just for HopNews; or content that is purchased, sent as a press release or contributed. HopNews does not copy material from other news sites and print it. Nor do we paraphrase a story and print it, as we have seen on pretend news sites.

     And as some readers may have noticed above, we are now carrying cartoons right from the esteemed cartoonist himself, Dave Granlund. His work will augment the fantastic contributions of Ashley Jackson, who has been supplying material to this cause ever since Dick Cheney offered a glimpse of himself for $2 million in 2003.

     The hypocritical part of this mess is that Gatehouse is crying foul, and all of the while following our news. How many times has HopNews presented a report or event only to see it covered next in their publication, and only because they read it on HopNews. And even though I believe that they are the pot calling the kettle black, that doesn't mean I am against their cause in this case.

     There is nothing worse for a creative person than to see that their work has been stolen or misappropriated. They are preaching to the choir on this one.

     Someone created 150 Afghans from a scan of a postcard I had printed. How about an entire website, a copycat site, stealing all of the HopNews advertisers buttons, pretending that those businesses advertised with them also, while trying to sell space to others? Or walking into a photo lab and seeing a person copying all of her brother's wedding photos, photos that I took and own the copyright for by legal right and signed agreement? These things happened!

     There are other sites, such as Google, that aggregate content and present it as the Globe is doing.

     Google's raison d'être is helping people find content. However, they also search for pictures and video, and reproduce them without permission. AOL does the same thing. Who is going to sue them?

     HopNews offers video to share to the world on YouTube.

    Occasionally, we will encourage people to download a keepsake video from our own stash on HopNews.TV.

    However, we have found our uniquely created video from news events on the sites of some good-for-nothing, lazy-bottomed techies who create programs that aggregate others people's creative works so that they can monetize free, stolen content; but then claim that the person posted it themselves.

     So, I am with the Gatehouse crowd on this one. Squarely in their corner and smellin' what they are cookin'. I hope they prevail in their arguments, fight mediocrity, keep the rights to their content and continue to stay in business.

      After all, I would really hate to lose all of those readers.

One Dead on Route 1 South Lynnfield 4-Car Crash

People wearing seat belts in 3 cars unscathed.

 

December 23, 2008 — At approximately 10:35 a.m. today, Troopers assigned to the State Police Barracks in Danvers responded to a four-vehicle crash on Route 1 South above the Lynnfield Tunnel in Lynnfield.  The crash resulted in one fatality.

 

Preliminary investigation by Trooper James Gill indicates that a 2003 Hyundai XG 350 operated by 82-year-old Robert Rogers of Beverly was traveling on Route 1 South when it struck a 2008 Ford Fusion causing the Ford to strike a snow bank.  The Hyundai then struck a 2004 Honda van causing the Honda to strike a 2004 Mitsubishi Lancer from the rear.

 

Rogers sustained fatal injuries in this crash and was pronounced deceased at the scene.  The operator of the Ford Fusion, 77-year-old Therese Smith, and a passenger, 78-year-old Warren Smith, both of Exeter, N.H., were wearing safety belts and were not injured.  The operator of the Honda van, 37-year-old Jay Wickeri of Peabody, was wearing a safety belt and  was not injured.  The operator of the Mitsubishi Lancer, 33-year-old Amy Parra of Topsfield, was wearing a safety belt and was not injured.

December 22, 2008 — This rotted, damaged mailbox, its pickup flag raised, stands on the side of West Main Street, the last remnant of a time past. Behind it is the hillside against which once stood the renown Sticky Wicket pub that hosted the Black eagle Jazz Band every Thursday for years. Most recently, the former building was used for the Panda King and then the Gibson Grille. The building and surrounding buildings and land were purchased by CJPM Corp. and rezoned for business at Town Meeting. The entire site, buildings and all, was razed earlier this year.

      The owners, Chuck Joseph and Peter Markarian, got Hopkinton Square, a mixed use commercial development, approved by the Planning Board, but have yet to land any tenants for the proposed development.

Re: Roads during Snow Storms

 

From: Say What?
Date: 22 Dec 2008

 

I had to travel out of Hopkinton on Sunday night to bring my son, who was plowing private condo complexes in another town, some dry clothes and hot food. I thought it would be "safer" to take the highway ... boy was I wrong! I-495 was horrible!

 

I opted to come back into town on Rt. 85, which was in far better shape than I-495. My biggest fear was coming up Cedar Street Hill, but it was in very good shape. I made it with no trouble at all. I just have to say that Hopkinton had the best roads in the area. I know the hours these guys put in, and we ought to be saying thanks rather than complaining! In one of the condo complexes that my son plows, many of the residents made no effort to move their vehicles so that the plow could clear their individual driveways and then complained that they were plowed in. Some people are just NEVER happy.

CAA to Host Lisa Bailey

 

The Cultural Arts Alliance of Hopkinton is pleased to announce a single artist show by acclaimed artist Lisa Bailey at the CAA Farmhouse from January 9, 2009 until February 2, 2009.  An opening reception will be on January 9th from 6:30 -8:30 at the CAA Farmhouse.  The public is invited to attend the reception or visit the exhibition any weekday afternoon from 3-6 PM or on the weekends from 2-4 PM.

 

 Award winning Franklin artist Lisa G. Bailey is a professional artist and instructor.  Originally from Grosse Pointe Michigan, she holds a BA in Art and Interior Design.  After moving to Franklin, MA in 1999, Lisa started her own business, Developing Artists, to teach drawing and painting to children and adults.
     Lisa works and teaches in many drawing and painting mediums such as watercolor, acrylic, oil, colored pencil and pen and ink.  She feels it is important to keep current with the mediums in which she teaches.  The different mediums stimulate her imagination and allow for more creativity and growth.  Lisa decides which medium to use depending on her vision for each painting.  She travels extensively in order to collect images and ideas to help create most of her paintings, which have nature as the theme.  In any medium, Lisa's paintings are noted by the sense of movement, attention to detail and a vibrantly complex color pallet.  She explores many different techniques while adding her own interpretation. 
      Through this process Lisa invented a new style in watercolor that she calls Color Weave.  After Lisa sketches the image, she weaves the lines throughout the painting with overlapping transparent color to create the shapes.  She enjoys playing with repeating shapes and they are often perceived as hidden images.  She believes an expressive painting is more than creating a literal summary of the subject but the result of choices made by the artist: what to eliminate, change or simplify.  She loves reaching for new territories and adjusts her perception of realism versus abstract in the attempt to investigate, develop, test and refine her skills. ~ CAA

Maynard Superintendent Of Public Works Arrested On Bribery Charges

Alleged To Have Solicited And Received Cash Payments From Project Developer In Exchange For Relaxing Inspection And Regulatory Process

 

            MAYNARD – December 21, 2008 — The Maynard Superintendent of Public Works has been arrested on charges of soliciting cash payments from a private developer in exchange for relaxing the permitting and inspection process for a construction project, Middlesex District Attorney Gerry Leone informed the public today.

             Paul Camilli, 38, of Newton, was arrested yesterday at approximately 5 p.m. by Maynard Police and Massachusetts State Police assigned to the Middlesex District Attorney’s PACT Unit. He is charged with corruptly receiving money and gifts.

             Camilli will be arraigned on Monday morning in Concord District Court.

             “We allege that this town official abused his position of authority, soliciting cash kickbacks from a private developer in exchange for relaxing the inspection process,” District Attorney Leone said. “Inspection standards are put in place for a reason, and by relaxing those standards in order to line his own pockets, he undermined public safety and violated the public’s trust placed in him.”

             The investigation was conducted by Maynard Police and State Police assigned to the Middlesex District Attorney’s PACT Unit.

             According to authorities, a private developer began a construction project in Maynard earlier this year. Camilli had frequent interaction with the developer because the construction project required permits and code inspections from the Town of Maynard in order for it to be completed.

             Camilli would frequently remind the developer that deadlines were coming up and that Camilli had control over how or if those deadlines would be met. Camilli also had many verbal arguments with the developer and made numerous technical demands to be met before he would sign off on specific portions of the project.

             At one point, with a deadline looming, the developer asked Camilli what it would take to get a particular project done, and it is alleged that Camilli made known to the developer that he was looking for cash money in order to see to it that the project moved along easier.

             It is further alleged that the developer later asked Camilli how much cash it would take and that they agreed on a number in the thousands. The developer paid that money in multiple installments in multiple locations.

            It is also alleged that during this time, Camilli began relaxing necessary standards for the construction project, including important environmental protection safeguards.

            The investigation into these alleged crimes included undercover and video surveillance.

            These charges are allegations, and the defendant is presumed innocent until proven guilty.

            The case is being investigated by Maynard Police and State Police assigned to the Middlesex District Attorney’s PACT Unit. The prosecutor assigned to the case is Assistant District Attorney Doug Nagengast.
