Harrington Holds Dedication Ceremony for 3D Mammography Machine Benefactor

Fax: 508-943-5320 www.SmartShopperAd.com Email ads to: SubmitAds@SmartShopperAd.com Hours: 8:30 – 5:00 Monday – Friday and by appointment

Harrington recently held a special dedication ceremony in honor of Lorraine Martel, a Southbridge resident, generous volunteer and advocate for Harrington HealthCare System. After she passed way, she left the hospital a gift of money which covered the cost of the 3D mammography machine in Southbridge. 3D imaging enhances the ability to detect some breast cancers earlier. It has also been shown to reduce the chance of additional imaging thus lowering the number of false positive mammograms. The 3D machine in Southbridge continues to be booked solid daily. Martel's cousin, Charlene Richard (who spend more than 40 years working at Harrington herself!) attended the ceremony. Pictured, L to R: Jess Calcidise, VP of nursing and ancillary departments; Richard, and Harrington President and CEO Ed Moore.

Local Dining Spots Foster Community Dining out is a great way to celebrate life’s milestones or simply reconnect with friends and loved ones. Research ﬁrm NPD Group found that, by the end of 2015, restaurant visits by consumers increased by 700 million compared to just ﬁve years prior. While chain restaurants invest heavily in advertising, independently owned restaurants do not have those same resources. Multi-unit chains also have more pull with suppliers and might be able to negotiate better deals, or can spread operational costs across various locations. Too often diners are not aware of the vast array of tasty, well-priced and artisanal

• Crowd control: Local restaurants tend to be smaller and more intimate than many chain restaurants. This can translate into a calm dining experience. When crowds are small, the noise level inside the restaurant

may be muted and service may be fast because there aren’t as many tables to serve. Furthermore, local establishments, although concerned about making a proﬁt, may be less worried about table turnover rate, preferring to let diners linger if it means repeat business. • Familiar faces: Some diners enjoy being a “regular” at their favorite local restaurants. Local dining spots also become gathering locations for residents in the know, instead of passing-through tourists or commuters. Much can be said about the advantages of patronizing local eateries. Men and women who want unique dining experiences can give local, independently owned establishments a try.

Birthday Party Pointers To Make Kids, Parents Happy

• Develop backup plans. There’s no accounting for the weather, illness, venue cancellations, or food ﬂops. Always have a plan B (and, ideally, a plan C and plan D) so that the kids can stay entertained.

• Trim the guest list. Parents should not feel the need to invite every acquaintance to their children’s birthday parties. Parents understandably don’t want to exclude or offend anyone by leaving them off the guest list. However, try to limit the guests to around 10, including the guest of honor. This makes the entire party more manageable.

• Propane tanks are constructed of heavy steel and are specially painted with a mastic coating to prevent corrosion. Environmentally friendly, a propane tank will typically last for 30 to 40 years. • Single-family homes can be fueled by tanks of varying sizes, depending on demand. Smaller 100-gallon tanks provide energy for appliances, while 1,000+ gallon tanks can fuel very large homes with additional energy demands, such as swimming pools, hot tubs, outdoor kitchens, and patio lighting. Generally, 500-gallon tanks easily accommodate an average four-bedroom home. • Once installed, underground tanks are scarcely noticeable except for filling connections and valves which are housed in a small dome protruding just inches above the ground. Standard landscaping is often done around the dome and over the spot where the tank is buried. • Can be installed FREE of charge. Certain restrictions apply.

I don't know why I'm in this cage. I know I'm too heavy and my person has disappeared but I'm not being punished, am I? I know I get to walk around and to pick cages but I'm scared. Everyone seems kind and Faze in the next cage has been in for a chat and cheered me up a bit. Even so I don't want to be here. I want a soft bed in a quiet place with someone to love and care for me. I don't have any claws in the front and am super affectionate once I get to know you. (How can I not be with a name like Nugs!) Not too much to ask, is it? I'm 7, have no bad habits and have a beautiful brown tabby coat. I wouldn't be a problem to have around. I'm so worried. Please come. The CCC is in need of supplies, especially litter (Scoop Away), bleach, laundry detergent, dry and wet cat and kitten food (Purina/Friskies), paper towels, trash bags, and treats! Any help is very much appreciated! We are located at 289 Thompson Road in Webster and are open Thursday through Sunday 12pm-3:30pm.
