Trans-American
Relay to Raise Funds for Bombing Victims
A
3300 mile non-stop running relay left Los Angeles
earlier this month, bound for Boston. The epic event is
being organized thousands of miles away by a trio of
running enthusiasts from the UK who wanted to show their
support for Boston following the tragic events of April
15.
One Run For Boston started from
Venice Beach, LA, at 10am on Friday 7 June and is
scheduled to reach Boston at 8pm on Sunday 30 June.
Hundreds of runners from across the USA keep the relay
going non-stop around the clock through fourteen
different states and four separate time zones, passing a
specially designed baton between them. Supporters will
be able to follow their progress online thanks to a GPS
Ninja Tracking device fitted to the baton which will
update its location every 15 minutes.
The three friends from England who
are the driving force behind the relay are Kate
Treleaven, Danny Bent and Jamie Hay.
“When the news from Boston reached us on April 15, we
were completely stunned” said Danny Bent. “It took a
little while to digest what had happened, but we each
reacted in exactly the same way - we just knew we had to
do something.”
The trio are no strangers to
organising epic fundraising events. Past efforts include
a 9000 mile bike ride from London to India and an 8000
mile non-stop running relay around the British Isles
which took eight weeks and involved 2000 runners.
“One Run For Boston is a chance for
runners to come together and show solidarity in a really
dynamic way” said Kate Treleaven. “It’s a chance to be
part of something remarkable, to demonstrate the
strength of human spirit and send a powerful message of
support to the city of Boston and those whose lives were
changed on April 15.”
By collecting donations from each of
the participating runners, the relay is raising money
for The One Fund Boston, set up by the Mayor of Boston
to assist the victims and families most seriously
affected by the bombings. The One Run For Boston team
have recently confirmed that donations made by runners
who sign up to run in Oklahoma will be donated to the OK
Strong Disaster Relief Fund set up in the wake of this
week’s devastating tornado.
The relay will travel through the
states of California, Arizona, New Mexico, Texas,
Oklahoma, Missouri, Illinois, Indiana, Ohio,
Pennsylvania, New Jersey, New York, Connecticut and
finally, Massachusetts. The 3300 mile route has been
divided into 319 separate stages. Most of the stages are
around ten miles with a few as long as 26 miles and some
group stages in the big cities just five miles. Runners
can sign up to run a stage via the One Run For Boston
Website (www.onerunforboston.org). At time of writing
over 1,500 runners have already signed up to run and
over $58,400 raised for The One Fund.
“We’ve received incredible support
from runners, businesses and the odd celebrity”
explained Jamie Hay. “We’ve seen some amazing stories
from runners uniting to make this event happen and had
tweets from Kevin Spacey and Al Rocker. We’re hoping to
receive more national news coverage to really raise
awareness of this epic relay!”
Danny and Kate have been following the baton in a support vehicle since Friday 7 June in LA. From there they’re driving the route, following the relay all the way to Boston, posting daily updates from the roadside and running the occasional stage. Jamie will continue to co-ordinate from the UK before flying out to New York on Wednesday June 26 and is available for media interviews until Saturday June 29 where he will join the team in Central Park and from there the trio will carry on to Boston. ~ Contributed content. |

ONE OF 83 CAMP LEJEUNE MARINE BREAST
CANCER VICTIMS SPEAKS FOR PREVENTION Peter Devereaux led the
walk and delivered a speech with the state’s leading
breast cancer organization, the Massachusetts Breast
Cancer Coalition (MBCC), at the 21st annual
statewide Against the Tide Swim, Kayak, Walk, or Run
event on June 22nd. He is a former marine who
was diagnosed with Stage IIIB Male Breast Cancer in
2008. A few months later, he received a letter from the
government informing him that he may have been exposed
to water contaminated with TCE, PCE, and benzene. He
made the connection immediately, and there are now 83
confirmed cases of male breast cancer among the Marines
from Camp Lejeune. “We chugged down eight to ten quarts
a day,” says Pete, “and between training and regular
life, we were taking two to three showers a day.” His
experiences, and the experiences of his fellow marines,
led Pete to his interest in breast cancer prevention,
and its environmental causes.
Pete became involved with the Massachusetts Breast
Cancer Coalition (MBCC), the state’s leading breast
cancer organization that seeks to understand the causes
of breast cancer in order to find ways to prevent the
disease. This past weekend on June 22nd, MBCC held its
21st annual Against the Tide swim, kayak,
walk, or run fundraising event in Hopkinton, MA! Peter
spoke about his experience and his passion for breast
cancer prevention from the podium at the event, followed
by Silent Spring Institute Director of Research, Ruthann
Rudel. This inspiring morning event in Hopkinton, MA on
June 22nd featured many exciting components,
with Mrs. Massachusetts International and the Girl
Scouts of America in attendance. This inspiring event
consists of a competitive or recreational swim, kayak,
walk, or run components. It also featured an Aquathlon,
consisting of the competitive 1-mile swim and the choice
of a competitive 5K or 10K run. This family-friendly,
statewide event brought together people from all
demographics and of all abilities with one goal in mind:
breast cancer prevention. MBCC's Executive
Director and Co-Founder of Silent Spring Institute,
Cheryl Osimo, explains, “It was inspiring to hear from
one of the 83 Camp Lejeune marine breast cancer victims
who served their country. Peter’s compelling story
brings to light the importance of MBCC’s unique goal of
breast cancer prevention. We are honored that Peter led
the walk with several others including members of the
Girl Scouts of America, this past Saturday.”
MBCC is inviting people
throughout Massachusetts to participate in the 14th
annual, statewide Against the Tide Swim, Kayak, Walk, or
Run event at DCR’s Nickerson State Park on August 17,
2013 in Brewster, MA. For more information on

From the FBI:
Race Against Time
06/25/13
It all started last October 15, when the Home Depot in Huntington, New York—a town on the north shore of Long Island—received an ominous anonymous note. The sender demanded $2 million or he would “shut down” three Home Depot stores on Long Island the day after Thanksgiving by remotely setting off bombs filled with roofing nails using a cell phone. As proof of his ability to hide a bomb, he said that he had planted a live device in the Huntington store’s lighting department.
The man wasn’t bluffing. Home Depot immediately contacted the Suffolk County Police Department, which found an operational pipe bomb hidden within a light fixture inside a box on a shelf. Bomb techs rendered it harmless through a controlled detonation.
Suffolk County and FBI bomb techs later agreed that if a store employee or customer had come across the bomb and picked it up, it could have exploded. And the device made it clear that the bomb-maker knew what he was doing.
Two days later, the man called Home Depot and repeated his demands. Five days later, the store received a second letter, this time lowering the ransom to $1 million and setting up a “money drop” for October 26.
According to the criminal complaint filed in the case, on the day of the money drop, the bomber intended to be “wired up like a Christmas tree” with “2 devices strapped to a belt and 1 to a neck chain I will be wearing, wired together and attached to a deadman switch in my hand.” The man also stated that “to keep from being shot at a distance,” he intended to place an additional explosive device in a Home Depot store.
But just before the scheduled money drop, the would-be-bomber made a second phone call to Home Depot to call it off…for the time being.
All the while, a multi-agency team of investigators from federal, state, and local law enforcement were compiling a list of suspects and working to narrow it down. A prime suspect soon emerged—Daniel Patrick Sheehan, an employee of the Home Depot store in nearby Deer Park.
On November 7—after using a variety of innovative investigative techniques—law enforcement located and arrested Sheehan in the vicinity of one of the Long Island Home Depot locations. Found in Sheehan’s possession was the cell phone used to make the threatening phone calls to the store.
On June 17, 2013, Sheehan was convicted by a federal jury of extorting his employer and using a destructive device. As then-FBI New York Acting Assistant Director in Charge Mary Galligan said after Sheehan’s arrest, “Whatever his motivation …[Sheenan’s] scheme caused economic loss, was a huge drain on law enforcement resources, and threatened the safety of untold numbers of innocent people, any one of which is unacceptable.” |

Dunkin' Donuts Approved by
Planning Board 6-1
The above conceptual drawing is the most recent one available, but does not have the most up-to-date features. For one, all of the hanging lights will be gone, and the individual sign letters will be lit on the interior, changes suggested by the Design Review Board. The consultant showed it to demonstrate color.
June 24, 2013 — The proponents
of building a Dunkin' Donuts at 78 West Main Street
returned to the Planning Board tonight with
recommendations from their visit to
DRB wanted all of the lights to be dropped from 22 feet to 15 feet, but the proponent refused to comply fully, and the Planning Board did not insist that they should. A standing room only crowd of neighbors opposed to the plan packed the oppressively hot meeting room. "I don't see why you are still married to 22-foot poles. They are too tall," neighbor and former Planning Board member Sandy Altamura (Photo) said forcefully. She asked how many lumens will be measured under the poles. "Eight and a half," the consultant answered. "Do you realize how bright that is?" she yelled to the board. The proponents agreed with shortening their delivery hours, installing "No Parking" signs on the roads, and "No Left Turn" signs from West Main Street onto the property. They also agreed to their best efforts to be sure that a neighbor who abuts the entrance access to the property has shrubs installed, either on her property or the town-owned right of way on High Street to mitigate the inevitable lights that will strike her house from vehicles entering from the west. Elm Street residents were especially opposed to the use of Elm Street, and then the turn onto High Street as one of the entrances into the site. "A van can't make that turn," Mrs. Altamura said. "I made the turn," said Chairman Ken Weismantel. "I don't believe it," she said tersely, drawing a strong warning from the Chairman. "You are out of order," Mr. Weismantel said, in a warning that can precede removal from a meeting. Mr. Weismantel explained in answer to a question by Muriel Kramer that the roadway entrance could not be closed because there is no other way to get in. An attorney appearing on behalf of an abutter implied the plan was flawed, because the lot is, by statute, actually smaller than stated; but the board took no action on his complaint. Planning Board member Claire Wright cast the sole dissenting vote. People feeling aggrieved have 20 days to appeal following the decision being filed with the Town Clerk. |

Neighbors Blame
Clear-cutting for Increase in Flooding at West Elm Street Above, the former Wright property on West Elm Street. The structure on the left is a home that was built years ago on behalf of the former property owners. The town denied an occupancy permit, and the building has never been occupied all of these years. According to Doug Resnick, attorney for the developer, the building will be demolished.
June 24, 2013 — Site development for Maspenock Woods, a 31-unit garden-style apartment plan on 15 acres of former woods on West Elm Street was begun recently, but has halted as a result of recent wet weather. Neighbors went before the Planning Board this evening to complain that their properties were being flooded as a result of the land being clear-cut without sufficient mitigation for storm water runoff. Selectman John Mosher, an abutter, said "Hay bales were in the road. There's no question it's coming off that hill." An engineer suggested it was the high lake level causing flooding of basements. Planning Board Chairmen Ken Weismantel asked him if he had measured it or just observed it. Hearing that he had observed it, Mr. Weismantel said to a longtime lakefront resident, "Bea [McMullen], is the lake high?" "Yes," she said succinctly, answering the question for all. The Planning Board will ask the town's consulting engineers to suggest a solution. |

Early Campaigning June 24, 2013 — In supporting Karen Spilka to campaign for Ed Markey's seat in Congress is the implicit belief that Mr. Markey will win the open Massachusetts seat for the Untied States Senate in tomorrow's special election against Gabriel Gomez. Fellow Democrats and Spilka supporters showed up with their checkbooks at the home of Dr. Bruce Karlin early this evening for a show of support and some festive celebrations. If Mr. Markey wins as they are counting on, the results will need to be certified before he is seated in the Senate. Presumably, the race for his Congressional seat will then officially open up. |

able to raise $630 for Project Just Because this past
Friday, June 21st by holding an afternoon of trivia at
PINZ in Milford. Participants included
administrators, teachers, administrative assistants,
librarians, technology and guidance staff. Each
staff member paid $20 to attend the event, and several

the cause. Expenses were kept low thanks to PINZ
donating the space for the event.
