Holliston High School Football Slays Wahconah with a 43-0 Division IV Title Win

Kiss a pig? Why on earth would anyone want to do that? Answer: To support a butterfly aviary project at the Holliston Agricultural Commission’s Community Garden.

Despite horrid weather, says

Kiley, “It seemed like the whole town was there, that this was not just a football game, but a whole town event.” And it couldn’t have turned out better.

Holliston Agricultural Commission Eyes Butterfly Project with Fundraiser By J.D. O’Gara

Holliston High School’s 2014 Division IV win of the Massachusetts Interscholastic Athletic Association (MIAA) Football Championship is, according to HHS Head Football Coach Todd Kiley, “not just a great story, it’s a great town story.”

Pj Kilkelly, who runs Kilkelly Farm and grew up on a farm in Ireland, says, “I think it’s so great for the kids to be involved in (farming),” says Kilkelly, whose daughter, now 11, has great interest in the area. “Her ability to be able to help the little animals, the newborns, when I see that, that’s what I would love to see – all the kids exposed to some element of the culture.” Reaching kids is a top priority of the butterfly aviary project, says Kilkelly. The aviary will be a bit like a coop, like a greenhouse with netting. The enclosure will be an addition to the community garden, which has been in operation for two years now, over behind Pinecrest.

“We’re trying to reach out to the kids, get something that interests them, draws them in, as a stepping stone for bigger things,” says Kilkelly. “We’d like to see schools more involved, hoping this will be a start.” The plan is to provide butterfly kits for the classrooms, so that children will have all the materials needed to hatch the butterflies out and bring them to the enclosure, where they’ll have all the plants needed, says Kilkelly. He envisions butterfly releases for special town events next summer. “We hope to have the enclosure open and running May to the first of June, so the classrooms can do something before summer vacation,” says Kilkelly. He says the Agricultural Commission also hopes to reach out to some local youth groups as well, including 4H.

Mass., and they emerged the victors with an astounding 43-0 win. “We got them early, and it just kind of snowballed. Our kids had worked extremely hard since the day after our Thanksgiving Day game last year. They all wanted to go out and win a state championship this year, and through hard work in the off season and throughout the season, just working extra hard in practices, it showed, and it showed in games,” says Kiley. Off-season training included a lot of speed training, weight training, says Kiley. “We have a strength and conditioning program open to all athletes, but its’ predominantly football players,” he says. “A lot of them have gone out and brought out their own training through ABT, Athletic Based Training. Most of our team has been through their program at one time or another. They do it in the summertime, anytime if they’re not playing a winter or spring sport.” This year’s win also had a lot to do with experience, says Kiley. “We had an experienced group of seniors. They were playing varsity football for a couple of years, and they were a mature football team that was able to concentrate at the task at hand. They never overlooked any opponent,” says Kiley. Kiley, with Jim Perry, Assistant Head Coach, Paul Athy, defensive coordinator, and Bob Murphy, who coached the defensive line, would work all weekend putting together a game plan for each team Holliston faced. “By Tuesday, the team was pre-

sented with the entire game plan, which is specific to what the opposing team does,” says Kiley. “Every team does things differently. We just work on trying to defeat on what each team does well, and then the kids do a great job of going out on Friday (winning.)” For Wahconah High, says Kiley, “They were a very fast, aggressive, physical football team,” a trait that Holliston was able to counter. Kiley notes that one of the key players was quarterback Nick Athy. “(Athy) had a pretty serious ankle injury going into the game but was still able to play. He’s our leader offensively for us, and our team leader,” says Kiley. Winning this championship, says Nick Athy, named Holliston’s MVP this year, “was just a surreal

feeling. We all worked so hard for one goal and to finally reach that goal, it’s just gratifying. We just played our game. We were very well prepared, and we just came out and executed.” The coach also notes that Zach Elkinson, receiver and running back for offense and defensive back carried the ball nine times, for 230 yards, for five touchdowns, with the help of a great offensive line.

Joe Bellomo had two QB sacks on the day. “Offensively, he had some great runs, he had a touchdown, and three 2-point conversions, and he had some great blocks for Zach to open up some of those huge holes too,” says Kiley. Kiley’s nephew and godson,

Kiss the pig continued from page 1

In order to fund the butterfly enclosure, Kilkelly notes, a new fundraiser was hatched. Nominate someone from town to kiss a pig, which costs $1 for each time someone enters their name. The Kiss the Pig fundraiser for this butterfly aviary was launched at the Holliston HBA Holiday Stroll. “We kind of reached out to all the different groups in town and asked them to nominate someone from inside their group,” says Kilkelly. “Everyone was happy to kind of kick it around. It’s $1 per line, and you can buy one line or the whole sheet (for $25). You vote for who should kiss the pig.” The resulting nominees (and good sports) for the Kiss the Pig fundraiser are: 1-Warren Chamberlain (Grange)

3-Tony Lulek (Agricultural Commission 4-Brad Jackson (Holliston Schools) 5-James McGowan (Holliston

Fire) 6-Caronlyn Dykema (State Rep-

resentative) 7-Bill Tobin (Holliston Reporter)

To support the Agricultural Commission’s butterfly aviary project, you can vote for one of these good sports to Kiss a Pig. The winner will have to kiss the pig at the AgComm’s winter event, “Is It Spring, Yet?” to take place at Breezy Hill Farm on March 23.

8-Brian Kramer (Middlesex

County Farm Bureau) Nomination forms are available at the Town hall, Holliston Superette, Holliston Hardware, Out Post Farm, the Holliston Fire Dept. and any of the Agricultural Commission members. “Every 21 days, we’re going to do a count on the votes, announce who’s leading,” says Kilkelly. That, he says, gives the nominees

“All of the lines are numbered and cards are numbered,” says Kilkelly, who says he’s printed out 2,500 lines so far, but “we can extend that depending on how they sell,” he says. Nominations will be taken until the end of February. The winner will get to officially kiss the pig at the Holliston Agricultural Commission’s winter

It will be called the Serocki Agricultural Preserve: A Community Farm and Educational Center, and it’s possibilities, say Tony Lulek, Chair of the Holliston Agricultural Commission, are myriad. Holliston was supposed to close on the property on December 23, but, he says, the family living there wanted to celebrate one more holiday there.

“When the town buys a piece of property, it has to go into conservation restriction,” he explains. “Somebody unrelated to the town and organization has to run it.” Lulek says that has yet to be established, whether some group such

“Donna Kramer does the therapeutic riding at Breezy Hill Farm,” says Kilkelly. “She graciously gives us the use of the barn for the day. Last year, we had a super, super successful day, and we had a whole bunch of newborn babies. It was a huge thing for the families and the kids.”

event, “Is It Spring, Yet?” on Sunday March 23, a family event scheduled at Breezy Hill Farm on Adams Street.

The Holliston Community Garden started eight years ago, explains Kilkelly. Until last summer, this consisted of 15 10x10’ plots, and then last summer they added more, put up a new fence, built a shed, patio and picnic table, with help from fundraising, the Holliston Garden Club and Holliston in Bloom. In the end, says Kilkelly, the Holliston Agricultural Commission really hopes to “promote farming. “We have huge uptake in the amount of real small pockets of land here in town where people are starting to do vegetables and chickens and goats. The amount of people in the past two years that have gotten chicken coops has doubled,” says Kilkelly. “It’s starting to explode. People want to know where the food is coming from.”

as the Trustees of Reservations will run it. “Those are the types of people that hold the conservation restriction,” he points out, “and that’s an important piece of the puzzle. That could take awhile.” He hopes that down the road, a group such as the Friends of the Serocki Farm will set up, in order to fundraise. “With a friends group, that’s a good way for other people to get involved. The Commission can only hold seven seats. We need other farmers, teachers, kids, civic groups through the Friends to help, but we’re waiting until the property is transferred into ownership of the town.

“We are also open to suggestions,” says Lulek. “We all have areas and our interests and our dreams, but this is a town-owned piece of property.”

At the Fall Annual Town Meeting, Holliston voted for ownership of the approximately 32-acre parcel near the east side of Holliston off Poland and near the corner of Rogers and Whitney nearly unanimously, says Lulek. “It’s a good parcel of land,” he adds, “and the Town doesn’t own a lot of land at that end.”

Lulek says residents are welcome to attend any of the Holliston Agricultural Commission meetings. The next meeting of the Holliston Agricultural Commission is set for Tuesday, January 13, at 7 p.m., and visitors can check the bulletin board at the entrance of town hall to find the room on the night of the meeting.

Lulek explains that the Serocki family has owned the property since the early 1900s, and it was farmed up until fairly recently. Not everyone on the Holliston Agricultural Commission has walked the land yet, he said, as of the writing of this article in late December. Lulek says he envisions a community farm with an educational center, something that could take place in an existing house, although, he says, the house is technically supposed to be removed, so that might not be possible. “First, we think we’re probably going to put up some fencing,” says Lulek. “There’s a house on the property and a shed, but we don’t know if we’ll get to keep the house. If we do, then it would become an educational center where we hold classrooms and stuff.” Lulek explains that only about

Although some of the Serocki land is designated for forest use, there are some parcels of what is slated for farm which will need trees removed.

17 or 18 acres of the property is classified for farmland under 61A, while the remaining portion is under “61 Forestry.” We hope to keep that part of it as is, with meadowland plantings and habitat encouraging wildlife such as quails, pheasants. There are wetlands, some paths and walking areas there, and there’s also the possibilities of cranberries.” Lulek explains that Holliston used to be a cranberry-producing town, and

Holliston Agricultural Commission has taken some plants from the wild in an effort to propagate the native cranberry. As for the agricultural land designated under 61A, says Lulek, “some of the agricultural land has not been used for such a long time, trees have grown up.” Tree Specialists, he says, has offered some services, and trees will need to come down in areas as that farmland is reclaimed. “There’s already talk of cows grazing in fields between families, like a CSA for beasts, but nothing concrete. One gentleman wanted to lease an acre of land and create an area that had chicken coops in it, but people would have to get together have to maintain it. It’s something that families could do. We want to be able to teach chilThe town has recently acquired a 32-acre parcel of land known that has been with the Serocki family for years. Plans for the land are still undetermined, but about 17 or 18 acres of the land is classified for farm use.

dren about this stuff. There’s talk of sheep and raising vegetables, and who knows? All these are great ideas, and some will require grantwriting and fundraising. We will need money to make some

With the acquisition of this new land, says Lulek, the biggest focus will be “to keep kids informed and educated about where their food comes from. We hope to work with schools and civic groups in town to create educational programs. If you have an idea you’d like to share for the newly acquired land, contact tlulek@gmail.com or attend an AgComm meeting.

January is National Blood Donor Month The first month of the year marks a national awareness month for blood donation. According to the American Red Cross, someone in the United States needs blood every two seconds, with over 41,000 blood donations needed every day. The American Red Cross notes that in most states, donors must be 17 years old, healthy and weigh at least 110 lbs. Just under 38% of the U.S. population is eligible to give blood each year, but only 10% actually do. Type O-negative blood and Type AB-positive plasma can be transfused to patients of all blood types. Both are always in demand and often in short supply. Donors must wait 56 days before each blood donation

b.Luxe Brings the Red Carpet Treatment Home about $20,000 annually to make that happen. Cohen is so assured that her stylists are top notch that she even welcomes outside stylists to take part in the professional development, as long as there are chairs for them.

“We have four employees here who are agency represented, which is unique to the area,” says Cohen, who says b.Luxe also authors trend columns for both Massachusetts Wedding Guide and Bride and Groom magazine. The team, as Cohen refers to her eight stylists and four makeup artists, reaches this high level of expertise in one particular way – education. “I schedule two to three classes a month for my stylists. I want to have the best educated stylists in the area,” says Cohen, who invests

“Everyone benefits from education,” says Cohen. “Our clients know they can trust any other stylist in the salon to see them,” says Cohen. The salon owner says she got started doing agency work about five years ago. “I had a client whose husband was a famous photographer. She had wanted to do a test shoot. I was excited to do it, but had no idea what I was doing,” says Cohen. The photographer saw the images, she says, and asked her which agency she worked with. “I had no idea what he was talking about,” laughs the entrepreneur. By chance, she says, she later recanted the experience to a woman in her chair, who just happened to have a lifelong friend that ran a top Boston agency. “And then it grew from there,” says Cohen, who later brought her two stylists, Nicole and Erica, to the agency and adds that her makeup artist, Gina, is also represented by the agency. “The honest truth is, we got really lucky, but luck will only take you so far,” says Cohen, who regularly travels to New York to style for agency clients. “We’re really, really good at what we do.” Cohen, who says she wants her

There Is No Better Time than NOW to Replace Your Windows! and contribute to a greener world. Various ideas include shutting off their air conditioners to updating to Energy Star qualified appliances and replacing existing light bulbs with modern LED units. These are all good ways to save money, but the best way to save on your energy bill is to replace the windows in your home. Did you know that at least 30% of the heat or air-conditioning in your home is lost through the windows? And, the older your windows are, the higher the percentage of heat or air-conditioning loss. Furthermore, replacing windows doesn’t just apply to people with antique homes. Even if your home was built in the 80’s or early 90’s, it’s time to replace the windows. Today there are more energy effi-

cient windows on the market than those available 15 or 20 years ago. But is the investment really worth it? Yes. New windows will see you through at least the next 25 years, and energy cost savings will offset the cost of them. Let’s say you decide to keep the windows you have now – which are probably letting heat out in the winter. You’ll have to set the thermostat higher and or your heating system will be on more because the house just doesn’t stay warm. And those old windows aren’t doing any good at keeping the heat out and the cool, air-conditioned air in during the summer. So, you’ll have to turn up the air conditioner just to keep the house comfortable. So, what will it cost to replace your windows? New windows may range anywhere from $400 to $1,800 each, depending on the brand of window. Higher end windows, such as Marvin, offer the best performance and look better. Anderson and Harvey windows are also good windows that are easier on the budget and perform well. Once you’ve decided to replace your windows, your best options for getting the job done well and in a timely manner are to hire a national chain that only sells one brand of windows or hire a licensed, local contractor who will

sprovide you with more window brand options and uses the same work crew over and over again. Be aware that big box companies and national chains may seem appealing, but you don’t know to whom they will subcontract the job. In addition, they often employ high pressure sales tactics that you won’t have to deal with if you hire a local company. It’s important that you are comfortable with whomever you hire and that you feel you can trust those who will be coming into your home.

Here are some additional helpful tips when choosing new windows: • Be sure to look at the windows in a showroom first. Find out about all the features and benefits of the windows and watch a demonstration of the windows. • Look for durable weatherstripping and high quality closing devices that prevent air from leaking out. • Double paned, Argon or Krypton gas filled windows boost energy efficiency tremendously and prevent (heated or cooled) air from escaping. Make sure the windows you are considering meet the requirements of the federal tax rebates and get it in writing on the quote before you buy.

• Low-E glass will reflect heat energy and still admit visible light, which allows for more heat transmission through the glass in the winter, yet less heat transmission through the glass in the summer. A window with Low-E glass provides the same insulation value as if you added another pane of glass. • Look for exterior clad with maintenance free materials. • Make maintenance easy on yourself by choosing tilt wash windows. The sash on these windows tilts in, so it is easy to wash the outside of the window. • Check that the window has a good quality lock mechanism. • As always, make sure you hire a reliable company with great local references that will stand behind their work, so you can rest assured that the job will be done well. So why wait? The sooner you replace your windows the sooner you will reap the benefits. Doug Masters is the owner of Masters Touch, located at 24 Water St., Holliston.

The Stone Soup Artisan Group Spreads Warmth By J.D. O’Gara

something. I could work all year long and maybe, in a really good year, make four hats a month. With so many members, if we find out that there is a particular need someplace, I can get on Facebook (as ‘Mama Soup’) and do a shout out, address ‘My Beloveds,’ and I say, ‘Hey, we’re going to do this thing for Whitcomb House and our deadline is January 1, and all of a sudden all these blankets show up.”

It started off with trying to raise some money for the Holliston Pantry Shelf. Local teacher and fiber artist Jill Anderson Roberson sold some of her wool and angora crocheted hats at Celebrate Holliston in 2013. At the event, she put out the word to anyone interested that she hoped for 10”x10” knitted or crocheted squares to assemble a blanket, which she would auction off to raise even more money for the local organization. “I wanted to make a blanket or something, but I knew there was no way I was going to get it done in time for the holidays,” says Anderson Roberson. “I threw it out there … and people came out of the woodwork. It was insane.” Anderson Roberson says after she put the squares together and made a border for the blanket, she raffled it off and raised over $300. “It all went to the food pantry, and I found there are so many people out there who are exactly like me. I wanted to do something, but I’m only one person. What could I possibly do?” Anderson Roberson, encouraged, put a Facebook Page together entitled The Stone Soup Artisan Group – and it’s now over 100 members strong, full of knitters, crocheters and even photographers and glass blowers. The group contains a lot of people interested in helping. “I even have people I call cheerleaders, who claim they don’t have one bit of artistic skill, but they’ll donate yarn or knitting needles, and they say, I’m not able to do something but here, I’ll help you do it, but I think that’s just the whole “Stone Soup” idea. Anderson Roberson puts the call for various causes out on the Facebook Page, and, she says, members respond in kind.

Shown is Jill Anderson Roberson, who formed The Stone Soup Artisan Group, knitters, crocheters and more, who work together to use their talents for good causes in the local area. Find the group on Facebook.

“One of our members, who chose not to be identified, recently came to my house and she donated over 450 baby hats,” says Anderson Roberson. She’s delivered these types of donations to Newton Wellesley NICU, Worcester Memorial Hospital’s NICU and Central Connecticut Hospital’s NICU. “Hospitals are always eager to get baby hats and blankets and things like that, especially for premature babies, because finding hats to fit a preemie baby is really difficult,” says Anderson Roberson, who says Some Stone Soup members help make the various trips. They’ve also donated to Dana Farber for cancer patients.

“I’ll shoot out a message on Facebook, and it’s not unusual that I’ll come in from school and there’ll be a bag of yarn sitting at the front door or a couple of baby hats stuffed in the mailbox. Nine times out of 10 I have no idea who they’re from.” While many of the donations are from individuals, Anderson Roberson says she has given some free crochet lessons at Kamala Boutique, which donated the space. She says the group has formed smaller subsets that will get together for projects and form friendships. “I think it’s really based in compassion and really wanting to do

The group has grown beyond Holliston, says the teacher. “We have people in Milford, Medway, Millis, Blackstone, Uxbridge,” she says, noting that some are even from out-of-state. Members range in age from 19 to their 90s. Anyone interested in participating in The Stone Soup Artisan Group can just go to the Face-

The Stone Soup Artisans Group has even helped out Little Paws Dachshund Rescue. For whatever cause, she says, people come to help.

Projects take place 365 days a year, she says. “Mama Soup” explains a request has come in from local vets, looking for hats, socks and lap blankets for other veterans, and the group has even created a scarf for “Lucky,” Fiske’s mascot. The Stone Soup Artisan Group “also helps each other,” says Anderson Roberson. “It’s a place for artists to go and talk to other artists. We encourage each other, we help each other out. It’s a really cool network and a friendly place you can kind of hang out, online.

“Just two weeks ago I did a lap blanket delivery to Whitney Place, I brought over between 30 and 40 blankets, and most of them were tied fleece. The members even got their children involved in it,” she says, adding she thinks it teaches kids a valuable lesson. Anderson Roberson worked at Whitney Place in the past, and she saw first hand how some dementia and Alzheimer’s patients would withdraw from opportunities to socialize due to feeling cold. The blankets, she says, can help with that. She also has a similar donation planned for Whitcomb House, in Milford.

Vigil for Victims of Gun Violence

This article first appeared in and is used courtesy of The Holliston Reporter, www.hollistonreporter.com by

Nancy Farrell

The Holliston Democratic Town Committee held a candlelight vigil on the green at the Congregational Church to remember the victims of gun violence in recent years. It was the eve of the second anniversary of the mass shooting at the Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, CT On a beautiful, cold Saturday evening, a group of townspeople stood on the green with candles and slips of paper with the names and ages of some of the victims. Taking time once again to gather and remember the horror of the mass shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary School, the group lit more than 800 candles to remember not only the victims of the Newtown shooting, but all victims of gun violence in the two years since .

One of the event organizers, Beth Greely and Rev. Mark Peterson of the Christ the King Lutheran Church shared some thoughts about gun violence.

People in the group talked about their compassion for the loss of life due to gun violence. They talked about the pressing need to find a solution. A thought of forgiveness and understanding for those responsible for these acts was offered, and a hope that we do not come to see these acts of violence as acceptable.

The group created a brilliant star of light in the center (Lighting candles in the wind can be challenging.)

Social Security Announces 1.7 Percent Benefit Increase for 2015 Monthly Social Security and Supplemental Security Income (SSI) benefits for nearly 64 million Americans will increase 1.7 percent in 2015, the Social Security Administration announced today. The 1.7% cost-of-living adjustment (COLA) will begin with benefits that more than 58 million Social Security beneficiaries receive in January 2015. Increased payments to more than 8 million SSI beneficiaries will begin on December 31, 2014. The Social Security Act ties the annual COLA to the increase in the Consumer Price Index as determined by the Department of Labor’s Bureau of Labor Statistics. Some other changes that take effect in January of

each year are based on the increase in average wages. Based on that increase, the maximum amount of earnings subject to the Social Security tax (taxable maximum) will increase to $118,500 from $117,000. Of the estimated 168 million workers who will pay Social Security taxes in 2015, about 10 million will pay higher taxes because of the increase in the taxable maximum. Information about Medicare changes for 2015 is available at www.Medicare.gov. The Social Security Act provides for how the COLA is calculated.

Holliston Pantry Shelf Funded Purely by Donations The Holliston Pantry Shelf, at 23 Water Street, Holliston, supplies food free of charge to Holliston residents in need. The Pantry is different from other food pantries in several aspects. First, the Pantry is open five days a week all year. Furthermore, the Pantry allows clients to shop for their own food, a completely unique approach. Finally, the Pantry has no paid staff and relies on volunteers to run it. Therefore, all money received goes either toward buying food or maintaining the space for the Pantry. The Pantry serves almost 160 Holliston families, totaling more than 300 people, including many children. The Pantry is often the only immediate assistance agency that Holliston residents can turn to. Other social service agencies often make potential recipients work through a long, grueling application process. The Pantry relies entirely on private donations and receives no municipal, state, or federal support. Refer to www.guidestar.org for more information about the Pantry.

Want a tour of the Pantry? Contact Peggy Robertson via email (PBCR515 at aol.com) to plan November 4, 2009 your tour. For more information, visit hollistonpantryshelf.org or call (508) 429-5392 or email info@hollistonpantryshelf.org.

Millis Couple Sees Signs of Business Potential By J.D. O’Gara

that got us out there to all these other places,” says Brian, who said the couple figured “if we want to keep doing that, we basically need to be much more professional.”

Their families warned them not to buy the house. Melanie and Brian O’Neil, not yet married, HAD bought a big old house on Ridge Street in Millis. They’d brought both their families there to meet. Brian was from Scituate, Melanie lived in Wakefield. They’d decided if they moved to the Metrowest, one thing was certain, they both wanted “a cool old house, with plenty of room to grow.” “When we bought the house, it was a complete disaster,” says Melanie. After they put in an offer and had home inspectors come, the families met at Noon Hill Grill in Medfield. “They all said to us, whatever you do, don’t buy this house,” laughs Melanie. The couple didn’t listen. “Essentially, because we had so much to do here, we had to become really good do it yourselfers,” says Brian. “We decided to embrace the rustic charm of it rather than try to make it modern.” One way of doing that, in their living room, was to rip out ugly red carpet and put in some old, reclaimed wood. “That project we did right before we got married. When we needed gifts for our families, we couldn’t find anything personalized. Mel came up with the idea that we should make some signs,” says Brian. “I thought it was a great idea, because we had all this wood leftover, but none of the pieces were long. The only way we could make it was to turn it sideways .”

Nowadays, not only do their parents come to visit, they actually come to help work in the shop.

Melanie and Brian O’Neil, of Millis, had no way of knowing that the house they bought two years ago would propel them into a new profession.

signs to their families, they were immediately assailed by people in the restaurant who wanted to buy signs like it. They explain that the sign style occurred, really, by chance. “We just made them based on what we had and how we had to make it,” says Melanie. “If we had had a big, long board, we just would have made it, and story would have been shorter.” The two set about making signs once a week in the garage, despite no background in woodworking. The Daniels believe that their lack of expertise in building the signs

actually gives them their rustic features. “Pretty much until recently we made tools,” says Brian, ‘but it was all stuff that was secondhand, from yard sales and Craigslist.” Through word of mouth, a private trunk sale, farmer’s markets, and craft fairs, their business grew. They became Rustic Marlin Designs, a name partially derived from Brian’s love of fishing. They even got picked up on “Chronicle.” “We did this event down in Atlanta, the Atlanta Gift Show, and

By shop, they actually mean most of the house. They use the entryway as the shipping room, and they have signs in the living room. A back room they use for all the finishing, which they’ll be moving to a barn in the back. That will be fixed up for this purpose now that they successfully reached their Kickstarter goals in November.

Using materials they get from a variety of different places (one old church is going to donate all their old pews to them), the Daniels say they are both full-time with their sign business – more than full time, and although they take orders, they don’t really have a shop or store. “Literally, we just work 24 hours a day, seven days a week” trying to keep up with orders, says Melanie. “But,” she adds, “it’s a good problem to have.” To learn more about Rustic Marlin Designs, visit www. rusticmarlin.com.

The couple created the signs, with their families’ names, on the bits and pieces leftover from the floor they installed. Little did we know when we gave the signs, we’d be where we were today,” says Melanie. Melanie, who’d always been involved in helping small businesses grow, and Brian, who’d studied design and had worked in sales and creative manufacturing, became signmakers. “He’s the creative, and I’m the realist,” says Melanie, who recounts that the night of the rehearsal dinner, when the couple presented the

LIVING HEALTHY Cosmetics and acne… To use or not to use? By Lisa Massimiano, Licensed Esthetician, Certified Acne Specialist Owner Skin Smart Salon Cosmetics and skincare products can cause breakouts in teens and adult women who are genetically acne prone. This breakout is referred to as cosmetic acne. Cosmetic Acne appears as slightly elevated whiteheads across the cheeks, chin and fore-

head. These bumps don’t show up immediately. It can take up to six months before cosmetic acne develops. Because of the time lag, women don’t necessarily associate the makeup use with the break outs. Not knowing what is causing the problem creates the frustrating cycle of more break outs, more coverage.

Why makeup is a problem for acne prone skin.

Offending ingredients for acne prone skin. Many popular cosmetic brands promoting “acne safe” products contain pore clogging ingredients. Beware of “oil-free” claims and other advertising hype like “non-greasy,” “natural” and “organic” in product labeling. These are marketing terms created to sell products. I advise you always check the ingredient label before choosing a product. Here are a few

So what’s a girl to do? Fortunately, you don’t have to give up wearing foundation and blush. Loose mineral makeup is fine for acne prone skin and provides good coverage. Also, eye makeup is usually not a problem since there is no oil producing glands around the eyes. But, be careful what you use to remove it. Straight mineral oil is the safest way to remove eye makeup. Questions about skin care for acne? Email me at Skinsmartsalon@aol.com. Or call (508) 881-1180.

LIVING HEALTHY New England Fat Loss Patient Reverses Diabetic Symptoms with Weight Loss Food for 71 year-old Alfred Imbruno has always been a core ingredient in his life. Imbruno savored a career as a professional chef and spent his days in the kitchen forever tempted by his delicious creations. Unfortunately, the combination of his vocation and his love of food led to added pounds, which also resulted in diabetes and high blood pressure.

Imbruno tried many diets, but always with the same result. He would lose weight, but eventually the pounds came back. On September 26, 2014, Imbruno stepped into New England Fat Loss, and under the direction of Clinic Director Dr. Johns and Weight Loss Specialist Dr. Dembrowski, his whole life changed. In his first 40 days, he dropped 47 pounds

and went from 314 pounds to 267 pounds. He then committed to the next stage of the plan, and as of December 2, just 82 days into the program, has shed an impressive 67 pounds! “The phase I am doing now is teaching me how to eat and lose weight,” Imbruno said. “Every day, I get on the scale and lose

weight, and it puts a smile on my face.” Imbruno retired cooking professionally in 2000 but continues to prepare meals for family and friends. Through Dr. Johns and Dr. Dembrowski’s recommendations, however, he has learned to adjust his eating habits. “For Thanksgiving, unlike the usual 25 or 30 desserts I put out, I put out six and baked with sugar free products,” Imbruno said. “I just kept away from the breads and starches, had a slice of cheesecake, and gave the rest to my company to take home.” The weight loss was his first

LIVING HEALTHY Milford Regional Medical Center Receives Award Hospital Lauded for Safety and Quality Milford Regional Medical Center was awarded 2014 Top Hospital by The Leapfrog Group, a national non-profit organization whose purpose is to initiate breakthrough improvements in the safety, quality and affordability of health care for Americans. The Top Hospital recognition is an elite distinction awarded to hospitals nationwide for demonstrating excellence in hospital safety and quality through the Leapfrog Hospital Survey. The Leapfrog Top Hospital award is given to under 7% of all eligible hospitals. “Leapfrog’s Top Hospital award is widely acknowledged as one of the most prestigious distinctions any hospital can achieve in the United States. It recognizes institutions for their excellence in quality of care and patient safety, as well as their commitment to

transparency. By achieving Top Hospital status, Milford Regional Medical Center has proven it’s a premier institution and deserves to be recognized for its dedication to providing excellence in care to families and patients,” says Leah Binder, Leapfrog President and CEO. Milford Regional was one of 94 Top Hospitals out of 1,400 recognized nationally. The selection is based on the results of The Leapfrog Group’s annual hospital survey, which measures hospitals’ performance on patient safety and quality, focusing on three critical areas of hospital care: how patients fare, resource use and management structures established to prevent errors. Performance across many areas of hospital care is considered in establishing the qualifications for the award,

including rates for high-risk procedures and a hospital’s ability to prevent medication errors. “Receiving this national distinction from The Leapfrog Group is a real testament to the extraordinary efforts of the physicians, nurses and staff that take place within our hospital daily to ensure excellence in the care and safety of our patients,” states Edward J. Kelly, president of Milford Regional. “I couldn’t be prouder of our team and our organization for always putting patients first.” The Top Hospital award is not given to a set number of hospitals, but rather, to all urban, rural and children’s hospitals that meet the high standards defined in each year’s Top Hospitals Methodology.

Sports Veteran Coach A Major Plus

Holliston Wrestlers Will Rely On Basics and Athleticism By KEN HAMWEY

teams a competitive battle.’’

It’s usually a good idea to heed the advice and opinions that Paul Capobianco offers about wrestling. After all, Holliston’s head coach has been involved with the sport for three decades.

One reason Holliston has experienced sectional and state tourney success is its schedule. Capobianco learned long ago that facing formidable teams is the best elixir for post-season success. “Eight of our dual meets last year were against teams ranked in the top 25 in the state,’’ he emphasized.

So, when the 59-year-old Capobianco says his squad is a good bet to finish third in the Tri Valley League but be a competitive contingent in post-season meets, those prospects likely will bear fruition. Holliston, which has won two league crowns during Capobianco’s previous 12 years at the Panthers’ helm, has been a sectional champ and a state runner-up twice. Last year, Holliston finished fourth in the state eliminations after compiling a modest 11-13 record in dual meets. “We’re a young team with not much depth,’’ Capobianco said. “We start a lot of sophomores and some freshmen and we’re not overpowering. “But, we’ve got enthusiasm, athleticism, technical ability and good knowledge of the basics. Norton, the defending champion, and Hopkinton are the teams to beat in the TVL since both have a lot of returnees. If we develop rapidly, we can give those

with a 15-2 record. Konnor was 19-8 last year and finished third in the sectionals. He’s a grind-it-out wrestler who’s very coachable. He works hard and he’s reliable. Reece was 15-10 last season, and he’s another guy who grinds it out. He’s strong and he put in a lot work in the off-season. Joe was having a great year last season but he got sick. He finished at 1210. He’s athletic and he’s a hardworker who’s very coachable.’’

When the Panthers opened their 2014-15 season last month, they were without three top-notch matmen who graduated last June — Jordan Paecht (126-pound class), Robbie Mejia (145), and Austin Barrett (220). Paecht was coMVP in the TVL, won the sectional, was third in the states and sixth in all-states. Mejia and Barrett were sectional runners-up who both finished third in the states.

Four sophomores Capobianco firmly believes will become the future cornerstones of the squad include Michael Wexler (113), Sam Goldberg (126), Alan Greendale (132) and Eli Goldfarb (138). “Michael had a good jayvee season last year,’’ Capobianco said. “He relies on a cradle hold to get his pins. He’s very opportunistic. Sam was 40-6 last season, finished second in the sectionals and third in the states. He’s a high-energy competitor and he’s very aggressive. Alan won matches last year. He’s dedicated to the sport and he’s athletic but he still has room to improve on basics. Eli is a smart wrestler who learns quickly. He got limited varsity experience but he was a starter at year’s end.’’

Although Holliston is without some quality veterans, its corps of senior captains will provide solid leadership. The corps includes Paul Jameson (106), Konnor Kozubal (120), Reece Jacobson (160) and Joe Bellomo (195 or 220). “Paul is aggressive, strong and quick,’’ said Capobianco, who was a sectional champion when he wrestled at Ashland High. “He got a late start last year but finished

“The attributes I look for in a wrestler are desire, dedication,

character and mental toughness,’’ Capobianco emphasized. “If you have kids that possess those traits, then the wins will follow.’’ That formula has produced a plethora of victories and plenty of success in post-season tournaments.

Sports Three Top Holliston Athletes Sign Letters of Intent for College By Christopher Tremblay Those lucky enough to possess athletic ability to play high school sports are most lucky to do so on the high school level. Concluding their four years at their local high school, they are looking to further their education on the college level, those few athletes with superb ability may even find that their college tuition may be paid for; those are the lucky few.

Hartford would be a good fit for Elkinson. “I hadn’t really thought about Hartford, I knew that I wanted to stay local, and after going to the school for a visit, I really liked it,” Elkinson said. “In addition to being close enough to the city, it

“I originally got involved in the sport because of my sister Catherine (who also attended Holy Cross and was captain of her team two years ago),” she said. “After being on a team that was competitive, while forming relationships with the girls you were competing for a seat, I found that I really loved the sport of rowing.”

Elkinson, who plays both football and lacrosse for the Panthers, will take the talents of his favorite sport down route 84 into nearby Connecticut.

The senior midfielder was playing for the Top Gun lacrosse team when President Justin Walker thought that the University of

Unlike her counterparts, Roy didn’t have the luxury of participating in the sport for the Panthers. Instead, the upcoming English/Art major had to travel to Brighton MA to be part of the Community Rowing Inc (CRI) team. This spring will be her sixth season with CRI. Roy began rowing in the seventh grade and moved up to the varsity team in eighth grade and in 2012 her team finished second in the regionals and firth in the nationals, it was here that she really started to embrace the sport.

Holliston High School had three of those athletes whose abilities will carry them to into the next level of their career signing letters of intent to the respective colleges. Caroline Roy will be attending College of the Holy Cross, where she will look to help the rowing team; Zach Elkinson will be headed the University of Hartford to play lacrosse, and Kylie Lorenzen will take her basketball skills to Southern New Hampshire University.

“My mom and dad thought that it would be a good idea for me to try it out. I loved it and have been playing since third grade,” he said. “The fact that you play on your own terms, no specific plays like in football, intrigued me. There is nothing set in stone and everything builds upon one another.”

Roy, who will be a captain of this spring’s CRI team, will be looking to improve her skills one last time before heading off to college. “When I first started looking at schools I was looking for ones with scholarship potential first,” Roy said. “Then I looked at any other school I could attend if nothing came up scholarship wise.” All three Holliston athletes will participate in their senior season with not only great pride for their high school, but hoping to show off their ability to the fullest for their upcoming college team.

Start Your New Year with a Financial Review Courtesy of Ryland Hanstad As you plan for the year ahead, is an investment checkup leading your list of resolutions? Taking time for a detailed financial review -- including retirement planning, college savings, and your tax situation -- may help you progress toward your long-term goals. Consider the following items as part of your checkup: Capitalize on tax reductions. If you plan to adjust your investment allocations, make sure you understand the tax consequences of your actions. Taxes on both longterm capital gains -- profits earned on investments held for more than

anstad

one year -- and equity dividends are generally lower than rates on ordinary income (15% for many taxpayers, 20% for those in the highest tax bracket). Because of these tax reductions, you may now have greater incentive to hold your mutual funds for the long term and include equity funds that pay dividends within your portfolio. School yourself in education incentives. Consider opening a 529 college savings plan account if education is part of your family’s future. Contributions to a 529 plan compound tax-deferred, and withdrawals are tax free1 when the money is used for qualified higher-education expenses.

Remember three important letters -- IRA. You can boost your retirement planning efforts by making the maximum annual contribution of up to $5,500 to either a traditional or Roth IRA. Investors aged 50 and older get an added bonus: A $1,000 “catch up” contribution that can be made in addition to the annual maximum for a total investment of $6,500. Your money compounds tax-deferred until you begin withdrawals. At that point, earnings withdrawn from a traditional IRA may be taxable, while those withdrawn from a Roth IRA may be tax free, subject to certain restrictions.2 There are other factors to consider -- such as your investment mix -- as you evaluate your progress toward your long-term goals. But this list can help you get started as you chart your financial course for the year ahead. 1 Withdrawals used for expenses other than qualified education expenses may be subject to a 10% additional tax on earnings, as well as federal and state income taxes. Prior to investing in a 529 plan investors should consider whether the investor’s or designated beneficiary’s home state offers any state

tax or other benefits that are only available for investments in such state’s qualified tuition program. Tax treatment at the state level may vary. Please consult with your tax advisor before investing. 2 Withdrawals before age 59½ may be subject to ordinary income taxes and 10% additional tax.

One Book, One Holliston Chooses Works by Zevin Our Annual Community Reading Program

One Book, One Holliston asks the question: “what if all of Holliston read the same book at the same time?” It is a communitywide program to draw readers to important authors, books and themes and to help them share ideas and the love of reading. One Book, One Holliston takes place each February with funding from the Friends of the Library and the TD Bank Affinity program. The 2015 selection is The Storied Life of A. J. Fikry by Gabrielle Zevin. The teen selection is Elsewhere also by Zevin. Listen to an interview with the author. Discussion questions for readers and book groups. Meet the author by Skype on Tues, Feb 10 at 7 p.m.

Secret Backfired on “Tab Hunter,” Now He Needs Home “Tab Hunter” is an extremely big, handsome male who was living with a family that was not supposed to have a pet. Having been found with the cat, he was surrendered to the Animal Control Officer who in turn gave him to PCS to find a new home. Tab Hunter has an outgoing, friendly purr-sonality and would be a great addition to your family. He is definitely an alpha cat and most likely would be best as the only cat in a household and we think he might coexist peacefully with a dog. If you are interested in meeting Tab Hunter or any of our other cats available for adoption

please visit our website www.purrfectcatshelter.org for an adoption application or call the Message Center (508) 533-5855 to have one sent to you. All cats and kittens have been examined by a Veterinarian, spayed or neutered, tested for feline leukemia and FIV, vaccinated, dewormed and microchipped prior to adoption. The Purr-fect Cat Shelter is a non-profit, nokill, all volunteer organization providing care and shelter to homeless cats and kittens with the ultimate goal of finding permanent, loving homes for each cat.

home MARKETPLACE It’s a Sign of the Times… “Remember there is nothing wrong with any piece of real estate the right price can’t fix!” This was quote that caught my eye this morning, and it made me think about the many properties that have been lingering on the open market for much longer than they need. Many homeowners would point their finger at their listing agent! Should other agents be in conversation with that homeowner, they may boast about their marketing methods in a subliminal attempt to attract that homeowner to them!

ASK THE REALTOR E.R.A. Key Realty Services by E. “Cappy” Capozzoli

Ready or Not-2015 is here! This month’s column is a reverse of the norm. I get to ask the question. My question to my readers is…“What is your REAL ESTATE PLAN for 2015?” For most adults, real estate is, or will be, the largest part of their net worth. Most people don’t really put a plan together- rather they just sort of “wing it.” If you own real estate now, your plan should include maintaining it both inside and out, so that it not only holds its value but also appreciates! Maintaining and upgrading shingles, paint, gutters, landscaping, driveways and cleanliness are all ways to slow down the aging process. Having your property always “market ready” has two big

benefits. One is pride of ownership and the other is, that in the event of a new job opportunity, you are ready to take action. Call on me if you need an estimate of market value. If you do not own any real estate, start planning now. Order a copy of your credit report, and clear up any negative issues. Start saving money, reduce wasteful spending, and make sure you have medical insurance. Check with your employer about job stability and possible promotions. Ask family and friends about the benefits and responsibilities of homeownership. Ask them why they bought and for their advice about the process. Last, but not least, visit my web site “cappyatmyhouse.com” and search any town and any price range. Get familiar with styles and prices. Hop into your car and drive around, noting neighborhoods and “for sale” signs. You are invited to jot down your plan and forward to me, as I’m sure there will be many good ideas.

Marketing methods are always an important factor in drawing attention to a property, but if the property is overpriced, it’s no one’s fault that the property lingers on the market except that of the homeowner. I refer again to the opening quote, “Remember there is nothing wrong with any piece of real estate the right price can’t fix!” This is the bottom line. To those homeowners who think they are leaving money on the table by lowering their price, you will be, if you don’t price your home properly. The longer a home lingers, the less one will pay, and at a certain point, the home becomes a target to “real estate predators.”

This is NOT a sign of the times….it’s a golden rule in real estate. Price Your Home to Sell in 2015. For further discussion on this topic, Barbara Todaro can be reached at (508) 520-9881 at RE/MAX Executive Realty in Franklin, Mass.
