WSU presents Vietnam War play ‘The Draft’ WESTFIELD – As part of its guest lecture series, Westfield State University will host a one-night performance of “The Draft,” a new play about personal experiences with the Vietnam War draft, on Thursday, September 24 at 7:30 p.m. at Dever Stage in Parenzo Hall. Admission is free for students and a donation of $10 at the door is suggested for all others.

Written by award-winning Boston playwright Peter Snoad, “The Draft” gives voice to the compelling real-life stories of 10 young people (eight of them current residents of the Pioneer Valley) who responded to the draft in different ways.

Some fought in the jungles and rice paddies of Vietnam, resisted the draft and served jail time, or chose self-exile in Canada. Others won conscientious objector status and organized for civil rights and against the war, beat the draft and counseled other draftees on their options, counseled traumatized vets, protested with thousands of others on college campuses, or treated the maimed and dying in a military field hospital.

Snoad is the recipient of two national new play awards, the Stanley Drama Award and the Arthur W. Stone New Play Award, as well as fellowships from the Massachusetts Cultural Council and the Virginia Center for the Creative Arts. His work has been produced throughout the U.S., and in Canada, the U.K., Australia, and Singapore.

The first full staging of The Draft is timely: 2015 marks the 50 anniversary of the start of the U.S. ground war in Vietnam, and the 40th anniversary of the end of the war.

“I think the stories in the play speak to the intense personal and collective struggles of a generation of young people,” said Snoad. “They challenge us to consider the enduring impacts of war and militarism today.”

One of the stories featured in the play is that of Westfield State Professor Tom Gardner. Last year, Gardner taught a seminar on the Vietnam War era and his students read and discussed “The Draft” in class. In 2012, Gardner took a group of students to Vietnam to examine the effects of Agent Orange, the toxic defoliant that U.S. forces sprayed over the countryside during the war. The experience of that visit is incorporated into the play.

Gardner said the play will appeal to students and adults alike.

“Whether they were part of the Vietnam-era generation or are current college students, or any age in between, they will feel the intensity, the confusion, the anger, and some of the joys of the time,” Gardner said. “I can’t imagine a better teaching tool.”

Twelve young actors play more than 70 characters in the play. “The Draft” is a multi-media piece in which personal testimony is interwoven with music, archival photos, video See The Draft, page 3

Council to consider aviation, athletic funding

had been in the spotlight the past several weeks as Republican and Democratic presidential candidates pitched to the crowds.

Tassinari said The Big E will remind fair-goers about the contest through video messaging and over the public address system.

In addition, The Big E launched a mobile app, which provide up-to-date information and alerts ticket holders of daily concerts, exhibits, livestock shows and, of course, the contest.

The app can be downloaded from Google Play or the Apple iTune store. “The app will have virtually everything

By DAN MORIARTY Staff Writer WESTFIELD – The City Council will consider two appropriations tonight related to the new Aviation program at Westfield Technical Academy and a bond to improve athletic facilities in the city.

Finance Committee Chairman Brent B. Bean said this morning that he plans to bring the three issues out for discussion as a Committee of the Whole because two members of the Finance Committee are out of town on business.

Bean said that Ward 5 Councilor Robert A. Paul Sr., is out of the country and that Ward 6 Councilor Christopher Crean will be returning tonight to attend the City Council session but will not be available before the council meeting begins at 7 p.m. .

Bean has tentatively slated a 7:30 p.m. finance committee meeting, but may bring the three finance issues out to the full council for discussion tonight.

The two appropriations for the Westfield Technical Academy aviation program are funded through the Community Preservation Act and are being used to rehabilitate Hanger 2 at Barnes Regional Airport where the aviation program will be located.

One appropriation is for $225,000 and the second for $45,000. Those are part of the Community Preservation Act allocation to restore the historic hanger which was constructed in the 1930 and is considered to be a historically significant structure in the city.

Bean said that City Advancement Officer Joseph Mitchell and Airport Manager Brian Barnes will attend the City Council session to provide further information. Both Mitchell and Barnes, who are both retired Air National Guard officers, have been part of the group advocating for the aviation program.

Students who successfully complete the aviation program will be certified by

The Big E vies for top spot among nation’s state fairs

By DENNIS P. HOHENBERGER Correspondent WEST SPRINGFIELD — Votes continue to pour in for the nation’s top state fair, including regional powerhouse The Big E in West Springfield.

The Big E, held annually at the Eastern States Exposition, was nominated for USA Today’s 2015 Ten Best Reader’s Choice Travel Award contest. An expert panel chose the Big E for the Best State Fair category. The online contest ends before midnight on Sept. 28.

To cast a vote, visit the contest’s website at WWW.10best.com/awards/ travel/best-state-fair/.

The Big E, the Northeast’s largest fair, faces competitors from Alaska, Arizona, California, Colorado, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, New York, North Carolina, Ohio, Oklahoma, Oregon, Washington, Western Idaho, Wisconsin and Texas.

As of Tuesday, The Big E stood in fifth place, up from the 17th spot, among the 20 participating fairs. The Indiana State Fair holds at fourth place.

While the Iowa State Fair attracts a slew of presidential candidates, The Big E’s famed cream puff, circus, daily Mardi Gras inspired parade, New England State Buildings, and national acts attract nearly1.5 million visitors annually.

Noreen Tassinari, The Big

E’s Director of Marketing, said the contest’s website will continually post standings.

“We certainly had a number of votes from all of our fans at The Big E. We would love to have people vote more,” she said.

Fans can vote by computer, mobile phone or tablet. The website allows one vote every 15 hours per device.

To drum up support, The Big E contacted fans through traditional and social media, including FaceBook and Twitter. “Fans are definitely voting for us,” she said. “It’s helpful The Big E is coming up and people are excited about the fair.”

The Iowa State Fair is currently in first place. The fair

Handicapped parking issue revised

By DAN MORIARTY Staff Writer WESTFIELD – The city ordinance establishing three handicapped parking spaces on King Street Extension along the south side of Bullens Field may be revised following construction of American with Disabilities Act (ADA) facilities as part of the baseball field upgrades.

The City Council’s Legislative and Ordinance Committee discussed the issue on Tuesday, but decided to wait for a recommendation from the Traffic Commission which met last night.

L&O Chairman Ralph Figy said he “put the cart before the horse” when he included elimination of the three King Street Extension handicapped parking space before the Traffic Commission could provide a recommendation to his committee.

Figy has been a vocal advocate of handicapped parking, initiating adoption of the ordinance establishing dedicated handicapped parking in the city, especially along Elm Street. That same legislation, approved last year by the City Council, established the three handicapped parking spaces along Kind Street Extension.

“The City Council will have to amend the handicapped parking ordinance,” Figy said.

“We’re not going to use those three spaces, so we’ll have to take them out of the ordinance.

“I was at the Traffic Commission last night,” Figy said this morning, “and the commission is recommending we eliminate those spaces on King Street Extension because there will be handicapped parking in the upper parking lot (of the old high school) and there will be an ADA compli-

RALPH FIGY ant ramp from that lot to Bullens Field.

“So we’re going to leave that issue in our committee until it comes out of the Traffic Commission,” Figy said.

The L&O will recommend to the City Council tonight to approve a resolution to allow the city to enter into an inter-

municipal agreement with the town of Southampton for animal control services.

“So this will be the fourth community which has come on board, it’s the same type of inter-municipal agreement we already have with West Springfield, Agawam and Easthampton and it’s favorable to Westfield because it generates revenue,” Figy said.

Southampton will pay a base rate of $3,000 to use the city’s animal shelter, as well as fees for shots and veterinary services. Westfield will also provide an animal control officer (ACO) if the Southampton ACO is not available on a $50 an hour fee during the week and a $100 hourly fee on Weekends.

“It’s a good deal for Westfield because of the income and it’s the vision of that shelter becoming a regional facility,” Figy said.

KEARNEY, Neb. (AP) — A Nebraska man believes he and his 2-year-old son were poisoned by a methamphetaminetainted coffee maker at an Omaha hotel.

Travis and Amber Richard and their children spent Labor Day weekend in Omaha.

He says he used the coffee maker and coffee package in their room on Sept. 6 and began to feel weird within 20 minutes of drinking the coffee.

He says his son also took a sip and got sick on the drive back home to Pleasanton.

Both sought medical treatment and are awaiting confirmation from tests.

Omaha police are investigating the incident, but say theyt doubt the coffee maker was used to make meth. It’s unclear whether a trace of the drug was left by someone using the coffee maker to hide meth.

The Big E relies on a good stretch of weather and people’s love of deep-fried delights. Newer menu items include a deepfried apple pie and a deep-fried martini.

“You have to see it to believe it,” said Tassinari, of the deepfried martini. The drink will be served at the Craft Cocktail Bar. V-One Vodka came up with the deep-fried concoction.

BOSTON (AP) — State labor officials say Massachusetts gained an estimated 7,200 jobs in August, marking the 12th consecutive month of employment growth.

The Executive Office of Labor and Workforce Development also reported Thursday that the state’s unemployment rate held steady at 4.7 in August, remaining below the previouslyannounced national rate of 5.1 percent.

According to the federal Bureau of Labor Statistics, Massachusetts has added an estimated 56,500 jobs so far in 2015.

The largest private sector job gains last month came in the areas of leisure and hospitality, education and health services, and professional, scientific and business services.

But about 2,600 manufacturing jobs were lost in August.

Labor and Workforce Development Secretary Ronald Walker said the state was working on strategies to help those who are unemployed find work.

Mass. gets first $1M of federal aid for blizzard BOURNE, Mass. (AP) — Massachusetts is getting the first $1 million in federal assistance to help cover the costs of a severe blizzard that struck the state in late January.

The major disaster declaration issued by the president for the three-day storm Jan. 26 through 28 provides federal funding for certain costs associated with emergency services provided during the storm and repairing damage to buildings and other public infrastructure. The disaster declaration covered most of eastern and central Massachusetts.

Additionally, federal disaster funds are being made available to reimburse 75 percent of the eligible costs of plowing and clearing snow for a 48 hour period.

Projections indicate eligible costs may exceed $150 million, of which the Federal Emergency Management Agency will reimburse 75 percent of the approved cost.

CNN’s three-hour debate from hell Marathon encounter tried the patience of candidates, operatives, and viewers

By HADAS GOLD Politico.com By the third hour of CNN’s GOP presidential debate, the candidates looked like long-distance runners fading in the final lap: A sweating Marco Rubio ran his hands through his hair, Chris Christie’s face turned red, a sagging Donald Trump grasped his lectern for support and, at times, seemed to crumple into his suit.

By the time moderator Jake Tapper asked each of the 11 participants to pick a Secret Service code name, a question meant to provoke bright responses but that fell flat, the combatants were out of gas and operatives were getting restless for the post-debate the spin room.

The second GOP presidential debate was, in the nearly unanimous opinion of the campaigns, both too long and too loosely governed.

“It was a little bit like a Charles Dickens story. It might’ve been good, but it would’ve been better if there had been an editor involved,’ quipped Terry Sullivan, Rubio’s campaign manager.

Part of the blame went to Tapper, who had vowed before taking the stage as moderator for the first time on a presidential debate to host a “real” encounter — with the candidates actually talking to one another. He got that — and more.

The 11 candidates frequently talked over one another trying to get one last jab in. At some points, it seemed like Tapper was a teacher trying to control a class of over-excited third-graders. ‘”He’s referred to me, can I respond?”

“After I respond then I’ll give the floor.”

‘You brought my issue up, can I … “ At one point, Tapper appeared to be throwing to a break, when Mike Huckabee began talking. Tapper allowed the candidate to keep going.

“Frankly I was really disappointed with the moderating,” said Sarah Huckabee, the candidate’s daughter and campaign spokeswoman. “I think they did a poor job with keeping the candidates on time. Certain candidates they just let run all over them, other candidates they were a lot more forceful. The discrepancy in the time is outrageous for a three hour debate.”

Trump ended up having the most speaking time, with more than 19 minutes according to a NPR count. Huckabee was toward the bottom, with just over nine minutes. Scott Walker was last with 8 minutes, 29 seconds.

“It’s much better to have a bell or buzzer go off without involving the moderator [keeping time],” Fox News’ Brit Hume commented on “The O’Reilly Factor.” “Jake tapper is a great journalist. But CNN did him no service by having the time work that way.”

“I didn’t know who was moderating,” said Sen. Rand Paul’s campaign manager Chip Englander. ‘It looked bad for CNN.” Even worse for the network, its hosts failed to make the strong impression that their Fox News counterparts Megyn Kelly, Bret Baier, and Chris Wallace did in the first GOP debate.

Sharing the stage with Tapper, CNN chief political correspondent Dana Bash and guest host Hugh Hewitt asked many sharp questions in the earlier undercard debate, with only four candidates. But when the action shifted to the main event, they disappeared for long stretches.

“For a while I wondered if Dana and Hugh Hewitt went for a coffee break, with Mike Huckabee,” joked Sullivan.

Behind the scenes, the operation faltered as well.

With both CNN and the Reagan Library handling logistics, campaigns complained of receiving conflicting information from different staff. All 15 candidates were supposed to take a photo together on stage ahead of the primetime debate, but both Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal and South Carolina Sen. Lindsey Graham skipped out. A Jindal spokesperson said that his team decided they’d benefit more from the spin room than the photo op.

In the reporters’ filing center, television cut out twice for minutes at a time, once losing video and once cutting away to a technician sitting in the spin room. Reporters were left scrambling for live streams on their computers.

Meanwhile, for the candidates, the debate stage only got hotter as the night wore on, and the faces started to shine with sweat.

CNN President Jeff Zucker defended the length of the debate, saying with 11 candidates the network needed the time to get deep into the issues.

“I think we had a really excellent night,” Zucker declared.

“We feel great about it. Listen, we think it was an incredibly substantive debate that covered a lot of issues and that’s what it’s supposed to be. It’s exactly how long we wanted it to be and covered all the issues we wanted it to get to.”

Few seemed to agree.

“I’m not sure what the goal was,” said Sullivan. “But certainly it devolved into a cat fight between some candidates in many ways and it was much more about who said what about whom and name calling and one liners than it really was about substantive policy. It seemed only focused on creating fights.

Lady and the Trump Fiorina came ready to take on Trump.

But she did a lot more than that.

By GABRIEL DEBENEDETTI Politico.com In a race that lately has turned on who is the most convincing outsider, Carly Fiorina staked a forceful claim on Wednesday night that a political newcomer need not be full of bluster and loose facts to make a mark.

Trailing both Donald Trump and physician Ben Carson, her fellow political neophytes, in the polls, Fiorina cast herself as far better-informed on the issues than Trump and more forceful than Carson.

She combined her own brand of Trumpian putdowns with a far more detailed command of policy, crisply detailing her approach to bolstering allies, country by country, in the Middle East.

Appearing in the main-card debate for the first time after a strong performance in the undercard of the first debate, she commanded voters' attention early on by responding sternly, and unflinchingly, to Donald Trump's attacks on her appearance.

"Women all over the country heard very clearly what Mr. Trump said," the former Hewlett-Packard CEO said to applause.

Trump had opened himself to Fiorina's attack by gibing, in a Rolling Stone article published last week, "Look at that face! Why would anyone vote for that? Can you imagine that, the face of our next president?"

But after Fiorina's crisp retort, it was left to Trump — hardly one for apologies — to walk his comments back. Fiorina "has a beautiful face and is a beautiful woman," he said.

That exchange proved to be the top debate moment on Twitter, followed by her comments on Planned Parenthood, giving Fiorina a lock on the two highest-impact moments of the night on the platform. She also managed to pick up the most Twitter followers during the debate.

The lone woman in the GOP race, Fiorina has been on the rise in national and early state polls ever since she stood out at the second tier FOX News debate in August, floating up alongside — but

behind — Trump and Carson. Many of Fiorina's lines at that debate and the Wednesday night event echoed her regular campaign trail rhetoric, but they rang as fresh to most of the millions of TV viewers.

"Unlike Mrs. Clinton, I know that flying is an activity, not an accomplishment," she said, repeating one of her favorite lines to the delight of the crowd.

Clinton has been a special foil of Fiorina, who attacks the only other woman in the race with more regularity than any other candidate.

While others expressed their strong opposition to Planned Parenthood funding in the wake of tapes showing executives discussing the sale of fetal body parts for research, Fiorina zeroed in on Planned Parenthood's Democratic defenders.

"I dare Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama to watch these tapes, watch a fully-formed fetus on the table with a heart beating and legs kicking while someone says, 'we have to keep it alive to harvest its brain,'" she said.

"If we will not stand up and force President Obama to veto this bill, shame on us."

She also spoke movingly of losing her own daughter to drug addiction, and said the marijuana Jeb Bush smoked 40 years ago "is not the same kind" as kids are smoking today.

While other candidates were searching their brains for women whose images to feature on money — Bush chose Margaret Thatcher and John Kasich picked Mother Teresa, neither of whom were Americans — Fiorina commanded attention by rejecting the hollow gesture of putting a woman on a bill, and saying that women were a majority who deserved to be treated as such.

Her ability to be both provocative and articulate caught the attention of many GOP insiders.

“The candidate who had the most room to grow tonight, took the greatest advantage of it,” said veteran Republican political consultant Alex Castellanos, “Fiorina was incredibly bright, knowledgeable and gave as good or better than she got from the bully on the block, Donald Trump.”

“She is close to becoming an A tier candidate,” he added. “I would expect her fundraising to go through the roof after tonight.”

Dem admakers poised to pounce on Carson, Fiorina

By GABRIEL DEBENEDETTI Politico.com Forget Donald Trump’s jab at Rand Paul’s appearance or Jeb Bush’s weird low-five. For Democrats, the juicy stuff that will find its way into campaign ads after Wednesday’s GOP debate features insurgents Ben Carson and Carly Fiorina on immigration and women’s health.

That’s because the fleeting moments — when the retired neurosurgeon referred to a “spigot that dispenses all the goodies” to illegal immigrants, and when the former executive invoked fetus brains — are the kinds of lines that can make or break television ads attacking Republican candidates or their field more generally, Democrats said.

“Those moments stand out because they are the classic conundrum for a party pulled increasingly to the radical right in primaries,” explained veteran Democratic ad maker Eric Adelstein.

“Pander red meat to the base that ends up alienating mainstream voters in the general election.”

Fiorina, the only woman on stage, staked a claim to one of the night’s biggest moments when she challenged Democratic frontrunner Hillary Clinton and President Barack Obama to watch the undercover videos of Planned Parenthood — a group they have both strongly supported.

Donald Trump, and Jeb Bush had many tense moments during Wednesday’s debate, but there were also some light moments, including when they slapped hands toward the end of the night.

But her full comments about defunding the group could alienate female voters, strategists said — particularly given that millions of women rely on Planned Parenthood.

“I dare Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama to watch these tapes.

Watch a fully formed fetus on the table, its heart beating, its legs kicking, while someone says we have to keep it alive to harvest its brain,” she said. “If we will not stand up and force President Obama to veto this bill, shame on us.”

For admakers, Fiorina’s comments were matched only by those of Texas Sen. Ted Cruz, said Adelstein. Cruz called the group an “ongoing criminal enterprise.” And the full Republican discussion on treatment of women was capped by Trump’s own claim that “I will take care of women. I respect women. I will take care of women.”

On immigration, it was Carson who gave admakers something to work with.

“After we seal the borders, after we turn off the spigot that dispenses all the goodies so we don’t have people coming in here, including employment, that people who had a pristine record, we should consider allowing them to become guest workers, primarily in the agricultural sphere,” Carson said. “Because that’s the place where Americans don’t seem to want to work.”

Lines like that feed into the Clinton campaign’s ongoing argument that Trump’s immigration rhetoric reflects the party writ large.

It’s a case Clinton has been making nonstop on the campaign trail, and Priorities USA, the main super PAC supporting her campaign, put out a web ad to that effect earlier in the summer.

The second GOP debate was a more sprawling event than the previous forum last month, when Democrats were most keen to

take advantage of a pair of statements from Scott Walker and Marco Rubio outlining their abortion views. But this one also provided Democrats with more opportunities to highlight the generally chaotic nature of the GOP nominating contest.

Also potential fodder for an ad: an argument between Jeb Bush and Trump about the real estate developer’s casino dealings in Florida.

“He wanted casino gambling in Florida,” Bush said of Trump.

“You wanted it, you totally did.”

An obviously miffed Trump shot back: “I promise, if I wanted it, I woulda gotten it.”

Not to be outdone, Bush tried to recount Trump’s attempt to expand gambling in the Florida. Trump quickly butt in: “Wrong.”

“If I was a Democratic super PAC, I’d start playing the Trump/ Jeb exchange in general election battleground states,” said Mo Elleithee, a veteran of the Democratic National Committee and Clinton’s 2008 campaign. That back-and-forth, he explained, could be used to show voters how raucous the Republican conversation has become.

Democrats will pore through the debate transcripts and video in the coming weeks to zero in on the exact moments they want to draw more attention to before the next round of debates.

But one pro-Clinton super PAC already got into the video game in the middle of the second-tier debate on Wednesday night. It took mere minutes for Correct the Record to distribute a four-second video of Lindsey Graham appearing to praise Clinton, when in reality he was making a broader argument about the need for Republicans to build a broader policy agenda.

To watchers of Correct the Record’s brief clip, Graham’s message is clear. In his own words: “Hillary Clinton has a list a mile long to help the middle class.

Gateway Superintendent’s Corner Once again the district’s budget for the current school year has been turned down by the towns based in large part on the decrease in revenue created by Worthington’s withdrawal. We continue to count on the promises made by district legislators regarding mitigation relief and the hope that Governor Baker is correct in predicting that the state will have its FY’15 supplemental budget completed during the next two weeks. In the meantime, to ease parent and student concerns, we continue operating under a 1/12th budget (set by the Department of Elementary and Secondary Education (DESE) and based upon the budget adopted by the school committee last spring).

Although more than $400,000 less than the previous budget, the current budget does not cut student services and will remain in place until the towns and school committee agree on a budget. Given the timelines established by law, the district and our towns have time to complete another complete budget cycle (30 days for the school committee to develop and approve another budget and 45 days after that for the towns to vote) before the DESE sets the budget for

DR. DAVID HOPSON the rest of the year on December 1. As always, the school committee has the option of return the same budget, a lower budget, or a higher budget to the towns.

As with many of the budget discussions at town meetings that I’ve attended for nearly four decades, the bottom line remains the perceived inability of the towns to afford the cost of educating our children. Despite the reality that the district’s request for funding is actually a lower percentage of town budgets then the historic twenty-year average, the large one-year increase in town assessments this year due to Worthington’s withdrawal is certainly difficult to accept, especially as many towns have become used to small increases or even decreases, in their assess-

ments. It’s unfortunate that there remain such large differences in opinion about town and school budgets and that there are so many ways to display the facts based upon an individual’s viewpoint. In Blandford someone put out a school budget ‘fact’ sheet (I’m told by the Blandford Finance Committee that they did not put it out and were not aware of the sheet available in a local store) that, if put out by a town official, would violate election law.

While containing some factual information, this sheet also included some inferences that were certainly inappropriate.

You may see this sheet, and the district’s answers, on the Superintendent’s Blog on the Gateway website. Despite many opportunities for town officials and school committee members to review the budget during its development (over the several months the school committee had this on their agenda), it always seems to come down to misunderstandings exchanged during town meetings. Given the busy lives everyone leads, it may be understandable that many lack the time to participate in this process, or to even attend town meetings. I’m hopeful that we can, with the help of the state, resolve the current budget

Westfield Bridge Club results SOUTHWICK — Westfield Bridge Club results for Wednesday, Spetember 16, 2015 were the following: 1st, Vi Martinell & Cindy Fullerton 2nd, Dorothy Kowaleski & Judy Fiore 3rd, Nancy Gay & Terry Augusti 4th, Barbara Kress & Marilyn Breor Duplicate is played every Wednesday evening at The American Inn in Southwick from 6:30 - 9:30. All players are welcome.

impasse so that we have sufficient time to work on the FY’17 budget, which is now due to the towns in just six months.

There will be much discussion occurring during the upcoming year as both the district and GTAC look at finding ways forward for the district and, hopefully, remembering that the school district and towns must both continue to exist if we are to continue being relevant, able to meet the needs of all of our citizens, and being a place where families wish to live and educate their children.

An Evening with Paula Poundstone Paula Poundstone, the award-winning comic best known for appearances on Public Radio’s Wait Wait, Don’t Tell Me, comes to

PAULA POUNSTONE Pittsfield’s Colonial Theatre on September 26, under the auspices of The Berkshire Theatre Group.

In the early ’80s, Paula Poundstone packed up her belongings, hopped on a Greyhound bus, and traveled across the country performing at open mic comedy clubs.

Poundstone went on to become one of the great humorists of our time. You can hear her through your laughter as a regular panelist on NPR’s popular weekly news quiz show, Wait Wait…

Don’t Tell Me. She tours regularly, performing standup comedy across the country.

In the early ’90s Poundstone was the first woman to win the cable ACE for Best Standup Comedy Special and the first woman to be invited to perform standup at the prestigious White House Correspondents dinner, where she joined the current President as part of the evening’s entertainment.

Poundstone starred in a selftitled series for HBO in ’93 (for which she won her second Cable ACE Award for Best Program Interviewer),

JOSH BURRAGE and moved the show to ABC which was short-lived, but applauded for its break from convention. Poundstone had her own comedy specials on HBO and Bravo. In fact, she starred in several comedy specials on HBO, including Paula Poundstone Goes to Harvard, the only time the elite university has allowed their name to be used in the title of a television show. Poundstone is recognized as one of Comedy Central’s 100 greatest standups of all time. Poundstone won an American Comedy Award for Best Female Standup Comic, and in 2010 she was one of a select group voted into the Comedy Hall of Fame.

member at the university.

Preferring to work with paint and canvas, Colt was largely inspired by nature. His artwork often portrays elements of the natural world with abstract qualities including luminosity and delicate lines and shapes.

Colt’s artwork has been recognized in a number of ways.

He was the recipient of the top award at the Walker Biennial at the Walker Art Center (1966), and was honored with the Top Award from Wisconsin Painters and Sculptors (1973). His paintings have been published in The New Yorker, Artforum, and Art in America.

Colt’s artwork hangs at a number of institutions including the Milwaukee Art Museum, the Wright Art Museum, and the Madison Museum of Contemporary Art. A native of Wisconsin, Colt moved to Amherst, Mass. after retiring from teaching and remained there until his death in 1999.

Colt’s wife Ruth Kjaer will be at the opening reception to answer questions about his artwork, inspirations, and lifetime achievements.

Colt’s artwork will remain at the gallery until October 17.

The Arno Maris Gallery is located on the second floor of the Ely Campus Center.

Admission is free. Regular gallery hours are Tuesday-Friday, 2-5 p.m. and Saturday 1-5 p.m.

The gallery is closed on Sunday.

Strike it Rich!

WESTFIELD — Westfield resident Rich Blanchard, 67, is no stranger to victory when it comes to our weekly pro football contest, “Beat ‘The Putz’”.

Blanchard has won multiple prizes over the life of the contest, and on Sunday he struck it rich again. The longtime contestant went 11-2, only losing with the Indianapolis Colts and Seattle Seahawks, two teams which suffered stunning upsets.

“I can’t disclose my strategy,” Blanchard said, jokingly.

“There’s no secret, just a couple of good lucky guesses.”

Blanchard also survived a tiebreaker points tie – Mary Curran went 11-2 – and random drawing to earn a gift certificate to the Tavern Restaurant.

Blanchard, Curran, and 12 other entrants who eclipsed my 9-4 Week One record and posted 10-3 marks qualified for the grand prize drawing, and are now eligible to win a TV from Manny’s TV & Appliances.

“I just like trying to beat everybody else – the thrill of victory,” Blanchard said.

Wins will be hard to come by in Week Two when Tom Brady and Gronk clash with the Rex Ryan-led Buffalo Bills, the Philadelphia Eagles host the Dallas Cowboys, and Green Bay and Seattle collide in our Sunday night tiebreaker game.

Holly Brouillette scores game-winning goal vs. Johnson & Wales at Alumni Field.

WSU field hockey wins home opener WESTFIELD, Mass. – Sophomore Megan Evans (Enfield/ Enfield, Conn.) and junior Holly Brouillette (Burlingon/ Burlington, Mass.) each netted a goal, leading the Westfield State Owls field hockey team to a 2-1 victory over Johnson & Wales University (RI) Wednesday night at Alumni Field.

Westfield State improves to 3-1 on the season with the win, while Johnson & Wales drops to 1-4.

Evans opened the scoring in the first half with the Owls down a player due to a yellow card assessed to sophomore forward Rachel Testa (Oakmont/ Westminster, Mass.). After a shot by Brouillette was blocked in front of the net, Evans corralled the rebound and fired a shot into the back of the net.

Less than two minutes into the second half, Brouillette added to the Westfield lead, sneaking a shot past Wildcats sophomore goalkeeper Shannon Yoder (Oley Valley/ Boyertown, Pa.) after a nice feed from Testa. The goal was Brouillette's eighth of the season, and gave Testa her first assist of the year.

With 15 minutes remaining, Johnson & Wales answered back on a goal from sophomore forward Giovanna Ciavardoni (Shaker/ Latham, N.Y.) to cut the Owls lead to 2-1. Ciavardoni beat Westfield junior goalkeeper Megan Fountaine on a loose ball in traffic after Fountaine twice saved shots by freshman forward Adriana Scala (Nyack/ Valley Cottage, N.Y.).

The Wildcats applied strong pressure at the end of the game, keeping possession in the Owls defensive side for most of the last 15 minutes, but they couldn't push through for a tying goal.

Fountaine made eight saves to earn the win for Westfield State, while Yoder stopped three of the Owls five shots on net in the Wildcats loss.

The Owls return to the field on Saturday, September 19, traveling to face LEC rival Bridgewater State at noon.

Second-half goals lift Gators

By CHRIS PUTZ Staff Writer HUNTINGTON – Better late than never.

What started out as a bleak outlook to Wednesday’s game for the Gateway Regional High School boys’ soccer team turned to euphoria late.

John Rooney scored with 98 seconds remaining in regulation to lead Gateway to a thrilling come-frombehind victory over visiting Easthampton 2-1. The Gators rallied for two second-half goals.

Easthampton scored on a quick strike 2:16 into the first half when Zack Crisafulli connected on a pass from Raphael Coleman.

Gateway finally found the back of the net on Jayden Marge’s score. Nick Cooper assisted on the play.

Goalkeepers’ Shane Mastello (5 saves) and Brady Parker (2 saves) combined to preserve Gateway’s victory. Johny Bara made seven saves in net for Easthampton.

Gateway improved to 2-1-1.

GOLF

Beauchemin’s 40 propels Bombers Westfield 165, Belchertown 167 Senior Nick Beauchemin shot a season-low 40, and freshman Jack Hogan played a solid round of golf to help Westfield improve to 3-2.

The Bombers trailed by two points before Hogan’s score went final.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Thursday, Sept. 17, 2015: This year you could feel held back at times. You have the energy, luck and knowledge to push any project to success.

Someone around you frequently puts you down or makes mincemeat of your ideas.

You will need to learn to move past this person’s criticism. If you are single, you could be overwhelmed by the amount of people around you who would like to have more than a friendship. You might want to date for a while. If you are attached, you often come home somewhat deflated, but your significant other is there for you. Your relationship becomes increasingly more important.

SAGITTARIUS can rain on your parade.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) HHHHH Be aware of your limitations when dealing with someone at a distance.

The two of you are not on the same page when you have distance separating you.

Others around you might have the expectation that your bond is the same all the time. Tonight: Act on an odd feeling.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHHHH Your feelings regarding many people seeking you out are likely to emerge. You could feel popular or annoyed, but either way you might need to make an adjustment to your schedule.

Opportunities seem to pop up from out of the blue. Tonight: As you like it.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHH Pace yourself -- you have a lot of ground to cover. Open up to a swift change in someone’s mood. Be willing to jump on an opportunity that suddenly arises. You might notice that a partner starts acting differently. Find out what is going on. Tonight: Choose something just for you!

CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHHHH You might be disappointed by someone in the morning, but you’ll manage to soar right above it later in the day. Your imagination could be a little wild. These flights of fancy will be a fun distraction, but they also might set you up to be let down. Tonight: Out late.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHHH Focus more on your home and personal life. A partner might be standoffish. Given some time, however, he or she will see your authenticity and come in closer once more. A conversation could take a serious tone. Step back some.

Tonight: Your pad is where it’s at.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) HHHH You’ll respond from an authentic point of view, which could create somewhat of a ruckus. Be aware of what you are asking of someone. This person might have a strong reaction. Give the situation low priority if you do not want an argument. Tonight: Hang out at home.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHH You might not be in touch with your feelings right now. You’ll want to be appreciated by certain people, but be careful about showing off or making more of a particular happening than exists. Be realistic. Tonight: Let others make it their treat.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHHH You might find yourself in a comfortable spot and feel as if you have been in the very same place before. Use caution with any money agreements made today and in the next few months; they could become burdensome. Tonight: There you are, having a great time!

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHHH You’ll sense that you are entering a challenging period. Don’t worry -- you have the wherewithal to handle what is coming. Make sure that communication keeps flowing. Don’t allow a disagreement to progress too far today or in the next few weeks. Tonight: Vanish, if you can.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHHH Assess what is happening in a meeting. You might need some supporters easing your way to continue on the path you have decided to pursue. A loved one’s compassion for you is likely to come through in a big way. Tonight: Make sure you have all your ducks in a row.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHH You might need to fill in where others have backed off. You have the strength and the drive to do just that. You could encounter a hassle with a friend that results from a change of plans. Go with the flow, and others will relax soon enough. Tonight: Allow the leader in you

Crosswords

to emerge.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHHH Let your imagination flourish as you hit a problem.

You’ll sleuth right through it, as long as you can get past conventional thinking. A boss could be very cold; perhaps he or she feels challenged by your abilities. Move past this person’s attitude.

Tonight: Be around great music.

Orioles’ late-season surge stalls with 10-1 loss to Red Sox

By DAVID GINSBURG AP Sports Writer BALTIMORE (AP) — Two out of three isn’t good enough for the Baltimore Orioles anymore.

Baltimore got a poor pitching performance from rookie Mike Wright and generated very little offense in a 10-1 loss to the Boston Red Sox on Wednesday night.

Although the Orioles (71-74) won the three-game series, the defeat in the finale stalled their long-shot bid to earn the second AL wild card. At this point in the season, every loss brings the defending AL East champions closer to elimination.

“We’ve said we need to go out there and win ‘em all,” shortstop J.J. Hardy said. “We lost tonight, but we need to take that same approach going into the next series (at Tampa Bay).

Nobody here is giving up and that’s the way we’re going to go about it.”

One year earlier on this date, the Orioles clinched their first division title since 1997. In this one, Baltimore took a step backward.

The Orioles had won six of their previous seven games following a season-defining 3-15 stretch.

Making his first career appearance against Boston, Wright (2-5) fell behind when David Ortiz homered to center on a 2-2 pitch.

Brock Holt singled in a run before Dustin Pedroia hit the first of his two home runs in a three-run third. Boston added five runs in the fourth for a 9-0 lead.

Wright yielded six runs and six hits in three-plus innings.

“I’m giving up too many hits,” he lamented.

Making his eighth big league start, Boston rookie Henry Owens (3-2) allowed six hits over 7 2-3 shutout innings. The 23-year-old lefty struck out four, walked none and reduced his ERA from 5.25 to 4.33.

“He just kept us off balance and we weren’t able to make the adjustments we needed to,” Hardy said.

The 6-foot-6 Owens was 40-16 in his first three professional seasons before this one. He went 3-8 at Triple-A Pawtucket this year before making his major league debut on Aug. 4.

There’s no telling if he will get a shot at being part of the rotation next year, but this outing certainly gave the Red Sox something to consider.

“I’m pleased with tonight,” Owens said. “I’ve had a couple of outings where I’ve learned some lessons, and I’m just trying to roll on each outing and learn as much as I possibly can.”

Baltimore’s lone run came in the ninth inning, when Steve Pearce hit an RBI groundout after a Boston error.

ON THE POSITIVE SIDE Orioles right-hander Jason Garcia blanked Boston in the sixth, his ninth scoreless appearance in his last 11 games. ...

Jonathan Schoop extended his hitting streak to a career-best nine games.

TRAINER’S ROOM Red Sox: RHP Joe Kelly has been shut down for the season with a shoulder injury. Kelly won eight straight starts before receiving a no-decision in an abbreviated outing Tuesday night.

Orioles: RHP Miguel Gonzalez seems to be moving closer to returning from a bout with shoulder tendinitis. “I can tell in his face that he’s feeling good,” manager Buck Showalter said.

UP NEXT Red Sox: Boston gets a day off before sending Rick Porcello (8-12, 5.06 ERA) to the mound Friday night in the opener of a three-game series at Toronto.

Orioles: Baltimore begins its final road trip at Tampa Bay on Thursday night. Chris Tillman (9-11, 5.21 ERA) is 5-9 lifetime against the Rays and 0-4 with an 8.42 ERA in his last four games overall.

Brady says he hopes Trump can win presidency FOXBOROUGH, Mass. (AP) — New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady said Wednesday that he hopes Donald Trump can win the presidency, hours before Trump participated in the second Republican debate.

The Super Bowl MVP, whose four-game suspension for using deflated footballs was recently overturned by a judge, grinned broadly as he talked about his golf partner.

“I hope so,” he said. “It would be great. There would be a putting green on the White House lawn, I’m sure of that.”

Brady’s locker sported a “Make America Great Again” red hat sent to him by Trump.

“It was a nice keepsake,” he said. “It could be a — yeah, a nice piece of memorabilia he sent me.”

Brady will lead the Patriots against the Buffalo Bills on Sunday.

Brady doesn’t appear to have given to federal politicians, a review of Federal Election Commission records shows.

His boss, Robert Kraft, gave $5,000, the maximum amount, to President Barack Obama’s campaign and another $52,000 to Democratic Party committees for Obama’s 2012 re-election. Kraft is mostly a Democratic supporter but has given donations in recent years to Sens.

Marco Rubio and Lindsey Graham — both of whom are among those vying for the Republican presidential nomination.

2 Patriots employees reinstated by NFL FOXBOROUGH, Mass. (AP) — The NFL said the New England Patriots can reinstate the two employees at the center of what a league investigation found was a scheme to use improperly inflated footballs in the AFC championship game.

Equipment assistant John Jastremski and officials locker room attendant Jim McNally were reinstated Wednesday after the team requested they be allowed to return.

"The Patriots have satisfied the league's requirements for reinstatement and the league

has granted permission for the employees to return," the league said in a statement.

The NFL launched a months-long, multimillion dollar investigation after finding the footballs supplied by the Patriots for the AFC title game against Indianapolis were inflated below the league minimum. In one of the more damning pieces of evidence, McNally referred to himself as "the deflator."

In its report, the league said it was more probable than not that McNally and Jastremski "participated in a deliberate effort to release

air from Patriots game balls after the balls were examined by the referee." The report also found that Brady "was at least generally aware" of the scheme.

The Patriots have insisted that neither they nor their employees did anything improper in the scandal that came to be known as "Deflategate." But NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell fined the Patriots $1 million and took away two draft picks, including a first-rounder, and suspended Brady four games.

Brady's suspension was vacated by a fed-

eral judge, who ruled that it exceeded the penalty allowed by the collective bargaining agreement. The NFL has appealed.

The Patriots suspended McNally and Jastremski, and the league said they must apply before the two employees could be reinstated and could not return to their former responsibilities. The team confirmed last week that it had applied for reinstatement.

Patriots spokesman Stacey James would not elaborate on what role McNally and Jastremski would have for the team.

NFL Week 2: Division rivals square off Coming off a mediocre performance, Peyton Manning and the Broncos look to continue their dominance of AFC West teams in Thursday night’s showdown with the Chiefs at Arrowhead Stadium.

BILL BELICHICK

Bills spill their dislike of AFC East rival Patriots

By JOHN WAWROW AP Sports Writer ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. (AP) — Defensive tackle Marcell Dareus and the Buffalo Bills really don't like the New England Patriots.

And they're not afraid to say it.

"Don't nobody like the Patriots," Dareus said. "Let's just be honest about it now. Put it out there."

Safety Aaron Williams referred to his dislike as being personal.

"I just don't like New England," Williams said, fully appreciating his comments will likely wind up being bulletin-board material.

"They're a great football team, don't get that twisted at all," he said, before adding: "It's just the way they carry themselves."

Now, Williams said, it's time for the Bills to start backing up their emotions on Sunday, when the Super Bowl champions travel to Orchard Park for an early-season AFC East showdown between two 1-0 teams.

The Bills have good reason to carry ill will toward New England after serving as the Patriots' personal patsies for much of the past 15 seasons. It's a span in which Buffalo has gone 3-26. That includes a mean-nothing 17-9 win in last year's season finale, when playoffbound New England rested most of its starters after the first half.

This year, the Bills vow, will be different in their latest bid to end what now stands as a 15-season playoff drought — the NFL's longest active streak. To do so, they know they need to unseat the Patriots, who have claimed the division 11 times since 2002.

"I definitely think this is the most talented team I've been on," seventh-year center Eric Wood said. "So with that, I would assume it would make it our best team we've brought against them."

Buffalo opened with a 27-14 win over Indianapolis last weekend. And the team is coming off an offseason in which it restocked its roster with high-priced talent on offense, and returned one of the league's top defense's.

The Bills are further emboldened by the hiring of brash-talking coach, Rex Ryan, who was never afraid of taking a jab at the Patriots during his previous six-year tenure with the New York Jets.

"I respect them probably as much as any team in the league, but I don't fear them, I can

tell you that much," Ryan said, referring to New England on Wednesday. "We don't fear anybody. In fact we're looking forward to it."

Ryan didn't come close to repeating what he said during his first season as Jets coach in 2009, when suggesting he had no intention of kissing Patriots coach Bill Belichick's Super Bowl rings.

And yet, Ryan made it clear that beating Belichick would be more meaningful than most any other regular-season win.

"It is a personal challenge because you want to go against the very best," said Ryan, whose Jets went 4-9 against the Patriots, including a playoff victory in 2010. "I'd much rather have a win and compete against a first-ballot Hall of Fame coach in Belichick than a slappy coach."

All the talk from Buffalo hardly resonated in New England.

"It doesn't matter to me," star quarterback Tom Brady said. "The games are won by what you do over the course of the week and how you go about your preparation, so that you can be prepared for the game on Sunday. He's a great coach. He's obviously got them confident. They're ready to go — sounds like they're already ready to go."

Belichick and Brady are aware that Ryan's arrival has generated a big buzz among Bills fans, who roared through much of the opener against Indianapolis.

The crowd might be even louder at Ralph Wilson Stadium on Sunday, though Belichick isn't overly concerned.

Noting that the Patriots can take the crowd out of the game by getting off to a fast start, Belichick said: "They will be as loud as we allow them to be."

A New England-based reporter posted Belichick's comment on his Twitter account.

The Bills retweeted the comment on their team's account with the note: "That's cute."

"The game's at our place on Sunday, let's see what happens," Ryan said. "If they beat us they beat us, but we don't concede anything. We're not beat just because they get off the bus, like some teams."

NOTES: CB Corey Graham practiced on a limited basis while still being monitored for a concussion. His playing status is uncertain. ...

The Bills will honor former GM Bill Polian, who will receive his Hall of Fame ring on Sunday.

Early AFC West showdown: Broncos at Chiefs

By BARRY WILNER AP Pro Football Writer One quarterback comes off a superb opener, the other off a mediocre performance.

The switch heading into Thursday night’s Broncos-Chiefs matchup in Kansas City is that the Chiefs’ Alex Smith had the big game, and Denver’s Peyton Manning struggled.

The Chiefs manhandled the Texans in Houston with Smith going 22 of 33 for 243 yards and three touchdowns in the first half. His passer rating against J.J. Watt and company was an outstanding 118.6.

In the Broncos’ 19-13 home victory against Baltimore, Manning was 24 for 40 for a meager 175 yards and no touchdowns with one interception and a 59.9 rating.

“I’m sure offensively I speak for a lot of guys that we certainly want to play better. I feel like that Thursday probably couldn’t come soon enough,” Manning said.

Nor could it come quickly enough for the Chiefs, who are eager to build off their impressive start by further establishing their credentials against Denver (No. 3, AP Pro32). The Chiefs (No. 9, AP Pro32) are 3-point favorites, yet another change to recent trends in this AFC West series, which dates back to the AFL when the Chiefs were the Dallas Texans.

“I think for us the one thing is win the division,” Smith said. “That’s the focus, right? ...

We’ve got a chance against the division champions at our place, so it starts with this week.”

Indeed it does.

CHIEFS, 24-23 KNOCKOUT LEAGUE TIP: Green Bay survived last week at Chicago. This week’s choice to win outright — remember, no repeat picks in a knockout pool — is INDIANAPOLIS. No. 18 Atlanta (plus 2) at No. 22 New York Giants Tom Coughlin, Eli Manning and Ben McAdoo won’t have brain freeze at the end of this one.

BEST BET: GIANTS, 27-20 No. 26 Houston (plus 3) at No. 16 Carolina On the theory that the Texans will be better prepared and far sharper and intense than last week.

UPSET SPECIAL: Texans, 19-17 No. 21 New York Jets (plus 7) at No. 14 Indianapolis, Monday After that stinker in Buffalo, the Colts will be ready for their home opener.

COLTS, 26-16 No. 5 Seattle (plus 3 1-2) at No. 2 Green Bay Hard to believe the Seahawks will start 0-2. Then again, the Packers owe them big time for NFC title game.

PACKERS, 24-17 No. 1 New England (pick ‘em) at No. 8 Buffalo Anytime you get the Patriots not giving points, jump on it, even against Rex’s strong defense.

PATRIOTS, 21-17 No. 4 Dallas (plus 5) at No. 17 Philadelphia Eagles probably should have won last week and Cowboys probably should have lost. Does that make this justice?

EAGLES, 30-27 No. 10 San Diego (plus 3 1-2) at No. 7 Cincinnati Toughest matchup to figure this week, this could come down to late field goal.

BENGALS, 24-23 No. 32 Tampa Bay (plus 10) at No. 24 New Orleans

Bucs were embarrassing in opener, Saints were inconsistent. New Orleans has less to reverse.

SAINTS, 33-17 No. 19 San Francisco (plus 5) at No. 13 Pittsburgh Steelers are lucky they are so wellrested for physical 49ers.

STEELERS, 28-24 No. 20 Detroit (plus 3) at No. 25 Minnesota We’ll give Adrian Peterson a rustiness pass for first game back. Watch out in this one.

VIKINGS, 31-26 No. 6 Arizona (minus 2) at No. 27 Chicago Bears played Packers tough and might do same against Cardinals.

CARDINALS, 23-20 No. 23 Tennessee (minus 1) at No. 30 (tie) Cleveland Lots of love for Marcus and the Titans.

Just a hunch it’s overdone.

BROWNS, 21-20 No. 11 St. Louis (minus 3 1-2) at No. 28 Washington Lots of love for the Rams, especially on defense. Not overdone.

RAMS, 23-13 No. 15 Miami (minus 6) at No. 29 Jacksonville Battle of the Sunshine State. YAWN! DOLPHINS, 21-17 No. 12 Baltimore (OFF) at No. 30 (tie) Oakland Questions about Raiders QB Derek Carr. Ravens will win whether he plays or not.

RAVENS, 22-10 2015 RECORD: Against spread: Week 7-8-1, Season (7-8-1). Straight up: Week 10-6, Season (10-6) Best Bet: 0-1 against spread, 1-0 straight up.

Upset special: 0-1 against spread, 0-1 straight up.

Annie’s Mailbox

By KATHY MITCHELL and MARCY SUGAR

Third Wheel on Facebook

Dear Annie: I have been seeing my boyfriend, “John,” for more than a year and love him very much. We are in our mid20s, and while there are no plans to move in together or settle down soon, I see a future with him.

The issue is that John currently lives with his older brother “Zack.” Zack has no full-time job, no prospects and no friends outside of those provided by John. Zack is shy in social situations, and covers this by being snide and sarcastic, which leads him to be girlfriend-less. My friends no longer like hanging out with John, as Zack is almost always involved.

Also, John pays for everything for Zack -- rent, food, entertainment or any event we go to. I feel like John’s second girlfriend. When we go out with other friends for dinner, John will pay for Zack, but not me. And if the three of us go out, John and I split the bill 50/50. I don’t mind this occasionally, but my finances are tight and I don’t care to pay for Zack. I resent that Zack gets treated to these dinners, but I don’t. Even our romantic dates usually involve Zack, and of course, he would come on any vacation.

Annie, I feel stuck. I love John and I have even learned to like Zack, but I don’t think I can handle this situation any longer. I’ve brought it up delicately many times, and John and Zack both acknowledge the need for a change, but nothing happens. I don’t feel comfortable trying to get in between brothers, but this doesn’t seem healthy. -- Third Wheel on Facebook Dear Third: John obviously feels responsible for Zack and wants to take care of him. He doesn’t feel responsible for you, since you are independent, both financially and socially. Have you asked John privately whether Zack could benefit from counseling? If he is the older brother and still has no job and no social life, he might need some coaching in life skills. He also might appreciate having someone teach him how to handle himself at a party or attract the attention of a female, and you could be of tremendous assistance there. Otherwise, any “future” you see with John means including Zack in everything.

Dear Annie: If people go in together to purchase a gift, should only one of the people receive a thank-you note?

I recently attended a bridal shower where four of us pooled our money to purchase an expensive gift. At the shower, we were all asked to address an envelope to make thank-you notes easier for the bride-to-be. We all did so, but I was shocked to find out that the note was sent only to “Jill,” with the rest of our names included inside. Jill phoned the rest of us to let us know.

Have people really become so lazy that they can’t write a thank you to each person who gave a gift? It wasn’t Jill’s job to inform the rest of us. Shame on the bride-to-be. -- Proper Thank Yous Please Dear Proper: The bride may not have realized that a single gift from multiple people still requires individual thank-you notes. But yes, laziness undoubtedly played a part, considering that the guests had to pre-address their own envelopes.

TRY SOMETHING NEW! Dear Readers: We all have favorite product brands that we cling to. But let’s talk about TRYING SOMETHING NEW! Confession: I keep trying new mascaras, but go back to the brand I used in college!

Many brands that you may have ignored offer promotional coupons and rebates in the Sunday newspaper, magazines and on websites. Give them a try! If you don’t like the product, you can return it and get a refund. Try something new!

If you have a question, call the phone number on the packaging or one you have seen in an advertisement and ask a question.

Love the Internet, but lately I’ve decided many times it’s quicker to call the free phone number and get a LIVE person rather than waste 10-20 minutes hunting around the website for an answer.

You are the customer, they make money off you and your purchase, so DON’T WASTE 30 minutes on a site trying to buy something. Call them! -- Heloise CALENDAR CONUNDRUM Dear Readers: You responded to my reader’s plea for what to do with calendars that charity organizations send. I knew y’all would come through. Here are just a few: * Take them to town hall for the employees. * Offer them free at the library bookstore. * The city homeless shelter appreciates them. * They are useful in boxes at the food pantry. * Make pretty notecards or envelopes from the pictures.

-- Heloise FLEA-FREE Dear Heloise: Here’s a hint for getting rid of that stray flea: Put a piece of transparent tape over it. Then you have it trapped! Fold the tape together around the body and dispose.
