$1.1 million seized in marijuana arrest By Carl E. Hartdegen Staff Writer WESTFIELD – A two-year investigation by the Eastern Hampden County Narcotics Task Force led to the seizure Friday of more than a million dollars in cash and 118 pounds of “high quality” marijuana in an Agawam storage facility. Friday’s activities began before dawn, according to city police reports, when members of the task force gathered at the Westfield police department to execute a warrant targeting Dennis L. Blair Jr., 38.
Detectives took up positions to watch his home at 19 Shepard St. and followed him when he left. Knowing that Blair’s license to drive had been suspended, the officers waited for an opportune spot and stopped him, in Agawam, where he was arrested, by Agawam officers, for operating a motor vehicle with a suspended license. The task force officers, including the Agawam member, Det. Michael Gruska, and representatives of the federal Drug Enforcement Agency, proceeded to an
Agawam storage facility to execute the warrant at a storage locker rented by Blair. Blair was booked on the motor vehicle violation in Agawam where he made a phone call and, a short time later while officers were searching the storage locker, a person arrived at the storage business in a car which immediately left at a high rate of speed, apparently after the driver saw the officers searching. Officers gave chase but lost the operator after he abandoned his vehicle in Suffield, See Arrest, Page 8
Board sends developer a clear message By Dan Moriarty Staff Writer WESTFIELD – The Planning Board voted last night to approve a preliminary plan for an 11-lot subdivision on the city’s border with Southampton, but expressed concerns about access to the development. The 5-1 vote to approve the non-binding preliminary plan for the R&L Golden Estates project focused on the fact that the preliminary plan will have access to the development only through Southampton. The Planning Board has rejected the original subdivision plan several years ago. The developers, the Golden Acres Trust, then appealed that decision to the Land Court in Boston and a resolution was negotiated through courtordered arbitration. The arbitration included three parties: the developers, the city and residents of Old Long Pond Road. The Town of Southampton was not a party to that process. The arbitration process has resulted in a number of waivers from the city’s subdivision rules and regulations, including waivers from the requirements that the subdivision street have a 50-foot wide right of way and that the paved road be 25-feet in width. Another waiver is the absence of sidewalks in the subdivision.
“There is no such thing as notoriety in the United States these days, let alone infamy. Celebrity is all.” — Christopher Hitchens

Dog required to attend training after attacks
As part of the negotiated settlement the developers agreed not to use that road and would install a gate at the end of Old Long Pond Road to prevent access to the subdivision via that route.
By Hope E. Tremblay Staff Writer SOUTHWICK – A potenially dangerous dog has been ordered to attend obedience training by the Board of Selectmen. Animal Control Officer Tracy Root met with the board Monday for a hearing about Bosco, a young rottweiler mix, who lives at 62 Vining Hill Road. The dog’s owner was notified personally by Root to attend the hearing, but did not show up and the board agreed to proceed with the hearing. Root said the situation began out of town when the family took the dog camping in Littleton. Bosco bit someone, unprovoked, and Root was alerted by the ACO in Littleton. Southwick ACO Brett Colson went to 62 Vining Hill Road to investigate and when the homeowner opened the door slighly, Root said the dog charged at Colson and bit him, again unprovoked.

Long Pond Road The developers are proposing a 20-foot wide street and that the drainage system be comprised of two swales on either side of the street. The property, held in a trust, abuts the city line with Southampton at the end of Old Long Pond Road, which is a private way in Westfield.
By Dan Moriarty Staff Writer WESTFIELD – The owner of a commercial building located at 64-68 Main Street has proposed several project changes to address concerns raised by members of the Planning Board at its Oct. 7 meeting. Land-use consultant Rob Levesque of R. Levesque Associated, presented the modified plan for reuse of a vacant commercial building located at the corner of main and Mechanic streets owned by Rocco J. Falcone Sr., through FRP Holdings. Levesque said that his client had agreed to several changes to address concerns raised by the board members, such as installing an “L” shaped fence at the corner of the property next to the intersection of Main and Mechanic Streets where a raised landscaping island will be constructed. Levesque said that the plan, which requires a special permit and site plan approval by the board, will now include a 14- or 15-parking space lot at the rear of the building, 10

Westfield students receive scholarships WESTFIELD – The Western Massachusetts Dunkin’ Donuts franchisees awarded six $1,000 scholarships to Westfield students: Rebekah Beal, Annalise Eak, Rachel Huntley, Victoria Meneses, Matthew Perreault, and Kayla Therrien. The award was part of the 2014 Dunkin’ Donuts Western Massachusetts Franchisee Scholarship Program that provided a total of $50,000 in local scholarships to fifty deserving high school seniors. The franchisees honored the scholarship recipients at an awards ceremony held at the MassMutual Center in Springfield. To cap off the event, State Senator Jim Welch was on hand to deliver a keynote address to the students. This is the tenth year that Dunkin’ Donuts has administered what has become a very successful scholarship program in Western Massachusetts. “At Dunkin’ Donuts we are committed to the communities we serve. As a local institution and active community partner, we want to encourage educational achievement in every way possible,” said Dunkin’ Donuts franchisee Peter Martins, who also addressed the students at the event. The students were selected for the scholarship on the basis of a well-rounded character, including a positive academic record, and demonstrated leadership in school and community activities. The competition was extremely rigid with over 2,000 Western Massachusetts students applying for the fifty, $1,000 scholarships offered by the Dunkin’ Donuts franchisees.

Elusive bobcat again escapes from New Jersey home STAFFORD TOWNSHIP, N.J. (AP) — A pet bobcat that has repeatedly escaped from its owner’s southern New Jersey home is again on the loose. The Asbury Park Press (http://on.app. com/1orDkIF) reports Rocky went missing from Ginny Fine’s home in Stafford Township on Tuesday morning. Animal control officials spotted the 38-pound bobcat later in the day but couldn’t catch it before it ran off into a wooded area. The wayward pet has been the subject of an ongoing legal fight between Fine and town officials because of its repeated escapes. If it is caught, it will be taken to a local zoo. Authorities say Fine was cited for allowing Rocky to run at large and is due in municipal court on Dec. 5. Fine can’t be reached for comment by telephone. She has said Rocky is a hybrid of a bobcat and Maine coon cat.

O
n Oct. 22, 1934, bank robber Charles “Pretty Boy” Floyd was shot to death by federal agents and local police at a farm near East Liverpool,
Ohio.
On this date: In 1746, Princeton University was first chartered as the College of New Jersey. In 1797, French balloonist Andre-Jacques Garnerin made the first parachute descent, landing safely from a height of about 3,000 feet over Paris. In 1836, Sam Houston was inaugurated as the first constitutionally elected president of the Republic of Texas. In 1883, the original Metropolitan Opera House in New York held its grand opening with a performance of Gounod’s “Faust.” In 1928, Republican presidential nominee Herbert Hoover spoke of the “American system of rugged individualism” in a speech at New York’s Madison Square Garden. In 1953, the Franco-Lao Treaty of Amity and Association effectively made Laos an independent member of the French Union. In 1962, President John F. Kennedy revealed the presence of Soviet-built missile bases under construction in Cuba and announced a quarantine of all offensive military equipment being shipped to the Communist island nation. In 1964, Jean-Paul Sartre was named winner of the Nobel Prize in literature, even though the French writ-
er had said he would decline the award. In 1979, the U.S. government allowed the deposed Shah of Iran to travel to New York for medical treatment — a decision that precipitated the Iran hostage crisis. French conductor and music teacher Nadia Boulanger died in Paris. In 1981, the Professional Air Traffic Controllers Organization was decertified by the federal government for its strike the previous August. In 1986, President Ronald Reagan signed into law sweeping tax-overhaul legislation. In 1991, the European Community and the European Free Trade Association concluded a landmark accord to create a free trade zone of 19 nations by 1993.
Ten years ago: In a wrenching videotaped statement, aid worker Margaret Hassan, kidnapped in Baghdad, begged the British government to help save her by withdrawing its troops from Iraq, saying these “might be my last hours.” (Hassan was apparently killed by her captors a month later.) President George W. Bush signed a corporate tax overhaul to close loopholes and provide $136 billion in new tax breaks for businesses, farmers and others.
Five years ago:
Mortars fired by Islamic militants slammed into Somalia’s airport as President Sheik Sharif Sheik Ahmed boarded a plane, sparking battles that killed at least 24 people; the president was unhurt. Gunmen kidnapped Gauthier Lefevre, a French staff member working for the International Committee of the Red Cross, in Su-
dan’s western Darfur region. (Lefevre was released in March 2010.) Comedian Soupy Sales died in New York at age 83.
One year ago: The United States defended drone strikes targeting alQaida operatives and others, rejecting reports by Human Rights Watch and Amnesty International questioning the legality of attacks that the groups asserted had killed or wounded scores of civilians in Yemen and Pakistan.

State review: Southampton ‘vulnerable’ By REBECCA EVERETT @GazetteRebecca Daily Hampshire Gazette SOUTHAMPTON — State inspectors who visited Southampton earlier this summer to review the workings of its financial offices say they found the town in a “vulnerable financial condition” because of poor budget planning. The Department of Revenue’s Division of Local Services released its review of the town’s budget process
this month. Among other things, it criticized the town’s spending down of reserves, suggested the Finance Committee was ineffective in the budget process, and even pointed out one instance in 2013 when, though it was in dire need of revenue, the town levied $95,000 less than it could have. “During our first visit to Southampton, it quickly became apparent that the budget process needed attention and that substantial reforms
and director of municipal affairs, and Joe Boudreau, field representative of the Bureau of Accounts. Budrewicz said the Select Board received hard copies of the report Oct. 14 but has not discussed it yet. Attempts to contact members of the Select Board or Finance Committee who had read the report were unsuccessful. ‘Unsettling trends’ The introduction to the budget review states that “unsettling trends such as rising costs in difficult to control areas, relying on reserves such as free cash and stabilization funds for operating purposes and deferring necessary capital expenditures have left the town in a vulnerable financial condition.” Decreasing state aid and rising education costs have made it necessary for officials to cut line items in other departments and use reserves to balance the budget, the report states. Between fiscal years 2012 and 2015, the town’s assessments for Hampshire Regional High School and Smith Vocational and Agricultural High School increased by $1.26 million, “consuming all of the town’s revenue growth over this period,” according to the report. Since spending down reserves, the town has about $93,000 in its general stabilization fund, and poor prospects for a good influx of free cash this fall, the report states. The report says that in the last two years, the Finance Committee has failed to present a balanced budget to the Select Board or make recommendations on the budget at Town Meeting. The town in 2013 resorted to balancing the fiscal 2014 budget with $371,778 in free cash it hoped to receive a few months after the annual Town Meeting. A special Town Meeting was held in December 2013 to approve the funds so the tax rate could be set before the end of the year. Moro said this “mad scramble” and her inexperience in the position led her to mistakenly set the tax rate lower than it could have been, costing the town $95,000 in revenue. She said that before the annual Town Meeting in 2013, the Finance Committee used her preliminary numbers to come up with the amount of

in this area were needed,” the introduction of the report reads. The inspectors suggested many fixes, including creating a “finance team” led by the town administrator to compile the budget, starting the planning process earlier in the year, and not supplementing the budgets of departments that do not stay within their spending limits. “None of it was a huge surprise,” Town Accountant Vicki Leigh Moro said of the report. Town officials are aware that their spending habits — coupled with rising fixed costs — are part of the reason the town is in its tenuous financial position, she said. The town had to implement budget cuts in many departments after the Town Meeting defeated a proposed $1 million override July 1. Moro said officials have already started implementing some of the informal recommendations they got from the state inspectors when they met in August and September as part of the budget review process. “When we talked with them and went over our process, we realized a lot of things while we talked out loud,” she said. For instance, Moro said she has been working with Town Administrator Heather M. Budrewicz, Treasurer/ Collector Donna Whiteley, and the Finance Committee to start creating a five-year projected spending plan for the town. Budrewicz said the budget planning for fiscal year 2015 has already started, at least three months earlier than usual. “It’s interesting to get an outsider’s perspective,” Budrewicz said of the budget review. “A lot of it we already knew,” she said, but having official recommendations to follow is helpful. After the Select Board asked for the review, several Division of Local Services employees came to interview town workers and committee members and review documents. Frederick E. Kingsley, chief of the Municipal Data Management and Technical Assistance Bureau within the division, watched dozens of video recordings of Select Board meetings, Budrewicz said. The report was compiled by Kingsley, Robert G. Nunes, deputy commissioner

Brown gains on Shaheen in N.H. LETTER TO THE EDITOR Dear Community Friends, As most of you know, my wife and myself have undertaken several fundraising projects with PTO groups for much-needed funding within our schools along with the collection of bottles and cans (which we still do). Presently, my wife Dawn is doing a Wine Tasting/Silent Art Auction at the Pilgrim Candle Marketplace on Friday from 6-9 p.m. This is to help spread awareness and raise funds for the victims of domestic violence here in Westfield during Domestic Violence Awareness Month. The funds will go to the Domestic Violence Division of The Westfield Police Department. You may have already noticed an ad or a bright purple poster for this. Your support would be greatly appreciated. For tickets or more information please call Dawn at (413) 572-1324. Thank you and hope to see you there. Kevin Medeiros
Coburn skewers NIH in final ‘Wastebook’ By Burgess Everett Politico.com Tom Coburn is going out with a bang with his final “Wastebook.” In it, the retiring Oklahoma senator laces into the National Institutes of Health for complaining about lack of Ebola research money while NIH investigates the effect of Swedish massages on rabbits. This particular study on rodent rubdowns cost $387,000 — a tiny fraction of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases’ more than $4 billion budget. But the ranking member of the Senate’s Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee cites many “unnecessary” spending programs that continue while NIH officials argue that important disease research has slowed. It’s not just the bunny rubs that raise Coburn’s ire in his buzzy Wastebook, an annual catalog of “stupid” government spending that’s become a linchpin of the Republican’s careerlong campaign against debt. Coburn also pans an NIH probe into how much dog owners love their dogs, a study of the science of meditation and development of a video game aimed at getting kids to eat their veggies. The statement of NIH Director Francis Collins that “if we had not gone through our 10-year slide in research support, we probably would have had [an Ebola] vaccine in time for this” was on Coburn’s mind when he wrote this year’s Wastebook. The “rascally” rabbit study is his first specific example this year of waste — and the first word in this year’s Wastebook is “Ebola.” The NIH director “claims a vaccine for Ebola ‘probably’ would have been developed by now if not for the stagnant funding for the agency, which has a $30 billion annual budget. Yet NIH did come up with the money to pay to give Swedish massages for rabbits,” Coburn writes. Coburn notes that after the spa treatment, the rabbits were euthanized, so “those feet were not so lucky after all.” Other NIH spending targeted by Coburn includes $371,000 spent on researching women’s emotional state when they see their dog compared to seeing their child; $533,000 for studying how Buddhism explains the science of meditation; and $804,000 spent developing “Kiddio: Food Fight,” a smartphone game aimed at empowering parents in vegetable-eating negotiations with their children. “Taxpayers should teach Washington bureaucrats not to waste tax dollars on corny smartphone apps that no one is going to play by sending them to their room without dessert,” Coburn concludes. Coburn identifies $2.1 million as the sum of the four NIH programs. NIH officials did not immediately comment. On Sunday, Dr. Anthony Fauci, the head of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, said he doesn’t agree with Collins’ conclusion that research cuts have prevented a vaccine and that “you can’t say we would or would not have this or that. Everything is slowed down. But I wouldn’t make that statement.” NIH has also taken heat from Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) for spending on “origami condoms” while Ebola research lags. This being Coburn’s final “Wastebook,” the senator goes far beyond the NIH’s spending and identifies 100 entries that add up to $25 billion. Coburn rolls his eyes at spending $10,000 on a play about zombies from the National Endowment for the Arts, $146 million in tax breaks for pro sports stadiums and $3 billion on the International Space Station.

By Maggie Haberman Politico.com MANCHESTER, N.H. — Can Scott Brown get lucky again? The former Massachusetts Republican senator captured the late Ted Kennedy’s seat thanks to a combination of good timing, a weak rival, a nationally sour mood for Democrats and a perception that he was truly authentic. Had he stayed in Massachusetts, he would have had a good shot at becoming the next governor, given the performance of his one-time rival, Attorney General Martha Coakley, in a gubernatorial race that Republican candidate Charlie Baker has made competitive. But the office didn’t appeal to Brown, according to friends. So he relocated to New Hampshire to challenge Democratic Sen. Jeanne Shaheen, a well-liked and well-defined former governor serving in a quirky state with more of the white, independent swing voters whom both sides are making a play for. Though Shaheen is the favorite, the race has become close enough that Republicans insist there’s a chance for an upset in a national climate that has soured on the Democratic president. “If this were being held in a presidential year turnout, Shaheen would win [handily],” said Democratic pollster Geoff Garin, who is advising a number of Senate campaigns. “But the prevailing political environment and the electoral arithmetic gives Brown a chance to make it close.” Shaheen and Brown will face off Tuesday night in their second debate, an event that both sides sought to spin hours ahead of time. “Voters Question Scott Brown’s Motives,” read a pre-debate memo that Shaheen’s campaign sent to reporters. “Tonight, New Hampshire voters will be rightfully questioning why Scott Brown is even at the debate. Brown’s flirting with running for office in Massachusetts — for both Governor and Senator — and later testing the Presidential waters in Iowa showed voters that he’s solely interested in getting back into office. That’s why polls consistently show New Hampshire voters don’t trust him.” Brown, in a radio interview hours before the debate, referenced Obama’s quote a day earlier that Democratic senators who have avoided campaigning with him have all voted for his agenda — a remark that made White House supporters cringe. “So I would argue it’s time for a new approach,” Brown said. “It’s time for a true independent senator who has a history of doing just that and fighting for individuals and businesses, creating an environment so we can get cracking again.” The presence of Democratic Gov. Maggie Hassan, who is outpolling Republican rival Walt Haverstein by double digits, at the top of the ticket can only help Shaheen, Democrats say. Democrats also have tried using Republicans’ damaged national brand against Brown, with Shaheen airing a spot accusing him of being shaky on abortion rights (Brown says he favors a right to choose). Besides hitting him on abortion, Democrats have accused Brown of being too close to Big Oil and that he is generally untrustworthy in the state. Brown’s camp, which had pushed for nearly 10 debates but got a promise of four from Shaheen, is trying to hang President Barack Obama around her neck like an albatross. Private polls have consistently shown that Shaheen’s brand
and connection to New Hampshire are strong. She has held steady around the 50 percent mark — somewhat shaky territory for an incumbent but strong enough that her supporters believe she’ll prevail. “If you will join me over the next 18 days, we can make Scott Brown a historic figure,” Shaheen said at the state Democratic Party’s Jefferson-Jackson Dinner last week, where she appeared with former President Bill Clinton and made an appeal to the female voters whose support she needs to win. “We will make him the only person to run for the Senate from two states to be defeated by two women.” There has been relatively little in the form of outside spending in the campaign, which was not on Republicans’ radar for much of the year. Roughly $25 million has been spent by both sides on the race, with an edge to the Republican side. The Republican group Crossroads GPS was up on the air for a week with an ad featuring a child in a spelling bee spelling Shaheen’s surname “O-B-A-M-A.” But the group’s weeklong, $3 million buy was reserved late, meaning Crossroads GPS got far less bang for the dollar than the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee, which reserved time months ago. “We left nothing to chance,” Shaheen campaign manager Mike Vlacich said. Brown, who was defined early on by Democrats as a carpetbagger, has done everything he can to nationalize the campaign — becoming the first Senate candidate to run an ad on immigration and the border crisis that dominated cable news over the summer. He has hit her over Islamic State terrorism and, more recently, pushed her to call for a travel ban to contain Ebola, which has added to an unsettled electoral environment. His critics argue that Brown has chased shiny objects in the news media to put the campaign in a national frame — a move necessitated by his lack of ties to or of a record in New Hampshire that he can point to, said former state Democratic See Brown vs. Shaheen, Page 7

Baker, Coakley face off in gubernatorial debate By STEVE LeBLANC Associated Press BOSTON (AP) — Democrat Martha Coakley and Republican Charlie Baker sparred on jobs, schools and services for families and children during a televised gubernatorial debate yesterday. Coakley said if elected she would focus on building a sustainable economy from the ground up while Baker said he would work to strengthen local economies in struggling parts of the state. Baker defended his past leadership of then fiscally-troubled Harvard Pilgrim Health Care saying his actions helped save jobs, protect insurance plans, and ensure the stability of health care providers. Coakley criticized him for raising premiums and accepting pay raises during his time at the health care giant. “We saved thousands of jobs and kept them right here in Massachusetts as the result of saving that company,” Baker said. Coakley again defended her decision to fight a lawsuit aimed at the state Department of Children and Families by a children’s rights group. Baker has said she should have settled the case rather than fight it. “There were outside lawyers who were suing us with a one-sized-fits-all solution,” Coakley said. “It wasn’t right for us.” The debate was sponsored by WGBH and The Boston Globe. Three independent candidates — Evan Falchuk, Scott Lively and Jeff McCormick — weren’t included in the debate.

On schools, Baker sounded more enthusiastic about expanding access to charter schools while Coakley said the state should look to see what works in charter schools and use that to improve education in regular public schools. In one of the sharper exchanges, Coakley pressed Baker on an audit being conducted by New Jersey into a pension fund investment in General Catalyst, a venture capital fund where Baker was an “entrepreneur in residence.” Last month New Jersey sold the investment, which drew attention because New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie had endorsed Baker’s unsuccessful gubernatorial bid in 2010, and Baker gave $10,000 to the New Jersey GOP in 2011. It’s against New Jersey law for the state to use investment firms with managers who’ve made political donations in the state over the past two years. Coakley said the facts of the case show a reason to investigate. “If that’s the case, he is in violation of the law,” she said. Baker said he did nothing wrong and noted that the only candidate in the race to pay a campaign finance penalty was Coakley, who regulators found had violated campaign finance laws by using her federal account for state political activities. Both candidates also were asked about the biggest misconceptions people have about them. Baker said it was the notion that he cares more about numbers than people. “For me it’s always been about people,” he said. Coakley said the biggest misconception about her was that “I don’t have a sense of humor, that I’m too chilly.” Both Coakley and Baker are seeking political redemption. Four years ago, Baker lost a hard-fought race to Democratic Gov. Deval Patrick. Baker said he came off too harsh during that campaign and vowed this time around to present a sunnier side to his personality. Coakley, the first woman to be elected attorney general in Massachusetts, also is hoping to put the ghosts of a 2010 race behind her. That year, Coakley lost a special election to Republican Scott Brown to fill the U.S. Senate seat of the late Edward Kennedy. Coakley would be the first woman elected governor in Massachusetts if she wins. The election is Nov. 4.

Brown vs. Shaheen
Continued from Page 4
Party Chairwoman Kathy Sullivan. Still, Brown supporters believe he has used his retail politicking skills to his advantage in a state that values face-to-face time with candidates. They see Obama’s sinking approval ratings as their best harbinger. Brown is “very well-suited to the state in terms of retail politics,” said Ryan Williams, who is advising the Brown campaign. Brown has brought in surrogates like Mitt Romney, a former neighborstate governor who won New Hampshire in the 2012 GOP presidential primary, to help him. Steve Duprey, a longtime Republican strategist in the state, said Brown has made it close but added, “If [Shaheen] loses this race … it’s going to be because [of] … her close ties to the president and his falling rating.” At minimum, the race is no longer the embarrassment it once appeared to be for Brown, who trailed by double digits a few months ago. A
Southampton
Suffolk University poll on Monday showed Shaheen leading by 3 percentage points, within the margin of error. The state has a streak of unpredictability — Brown supporters happily point out that Shaheen, then the popular outgoing governor, lost a 2002 bid for Senate in a race that polls showed her winning against John E. Sununu until the very end. But her personal approval rating has remained high. The math in the state requires Shaheen to win independents by a strong margin and to run, Garin said, “far ahead of [President] Obama’s approval rating.” DSCC spokesman Matt Canter said Brown is trying to relive the go-go days of 2010. “Scott Brown was a good candidate for 15 minutes five years ago, and now he acts like he’s Bill Murray in ‘Groundhog Day,’” Canter said. “Every morning he wakes up and pretends it’s still January 2010. The fact is that Jeanne Shaheen is one of
the most popular senators in the country, and every poll shows voters know that Brown is out for himself and not the people of New Hampshire.” One Republican operative who’s studied the race said that while Shaheen herself had not aired ads on the carpetbagger issue, private polling showed that voters of all stripes were familiar with it. “What he had going for him was authenticity,” said the operative, referring to Brown. “And by moving to run in a different state, he lost that.” But Brad Dayspring, spokesman for the National Republican Senatorial Committee, said the bad environment for Democrats will ultimately prove too hard for Shaheen to surmount. “Since August, Democrats have thrown the kitchen sink and everything under it at Scott Brown,” Dayspring said, “and he is now in a statistical dead heat against Jeanne Shaheen.”

State to award Springfield subway car contract to Chinese firm By PHILIP MARCELO Associated Press BOSTON (AP) — The state is set to award a $566 million contract to a Chinese government-owned rail company for new trains for Greater Boston’s subway system, the “T.” The Massachusetts Department of Transportation’s board of directors was to vote this afternoon to authorize a contract with Changchun Railway Vehicles to build 284 new subway cars for the Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority. The new cars are needed to replace the MBTA’s 32-year-old Orange Line trains and the 44-year-old Red Line cars. The subway lines serve an average of 200,000 and 272,000 customers each weekday, respectively. Changchun Railway Vehicles is a subsidiary of China CNR Corporation Limited, the Chinese government-owned enterprise that is the largest rail car maker in the world. The project would be its first in North America. Changchun has pledged to build the subway cars at a new, $60 million factory in Springfield
that would become its U.S. headquarters. The 150,000-square-foot facility is expected to create over 250 new manufacturing and construction jobs for the region. Construction on the facility, proposed for the former Westinghouse Electric plant, is expected to begin in 2015. Springfield is western Massachusetts’ economic and cultural hub, but it also has among the highest unemployment rates in the state. The rail cars, the first of which will be delivered in 2018, are expected to help increase the subway system’s capacity and decrease passenger wait times. The state first sought bids on the contract in October 2013. It received six proposals by the May 2014 deadline. Changchun submitted the lowest bid. Gov. Deval Patrick has said the company has been “thoroughly vetted” and that the bidding process was “rigorous and transparent.” But some critics have voiced concern about the company in light of China’s human rights record.
Ex-probation chief, 2 others seek new trial BOSTON (AP) — Former Massachusetts probation commissioner John O’Brien and two deputies are set to argue before a federal judge that their convictions in a job-rigging case should be thrown out or a new trial ordered. O’Brien was convicted in July of racketeering and mail fraud in a case that focused attention on the patronage culture in state government. Elizabeth Tavares also was convicted of racketeering and mail fraud while the third defendant, William Burke, was found guilty of racketeering conspira-
Waste
cy. Prosecutors say O’Brien orchestrated a scheme to ensure that highly-coveted jobs in the probation department went to candidates sponsored by powerful state legislators, often at the expense of more qualified candidates. Defense attorneys today plan to ask U.S. District Court Judge William Young, who presided over the six-week jury trial, to issue a judgment of acquittal or set aside the convictions and order a new trial. In court filings, the defense has contended that the jury
received faulty instructions from the judge prior to deliberations, and that evidence presented during the trial was insufficient to warrant the guilty verdicts. The U.S. Attorney’s office, in a response to the defense motions, urged Young not to alter the convictions. Prosecutors said the defendants were making “the same old and tired arguments” offered up during the trial. Barring a ruling in their favor by the judge, O’Brien, Tavares and Burke face sentencing on Nov. 12.

Don will be forever remembered for using humor to get through life.

Planning Board that it, as well as town officials, are opposed to the project with access only through their town because of the condition and character of Old County Road which is narrow and winding. Planning Board member Carl Vincent, a retired firefighter and EMT, voiced strong opposition to approving a plan with the gate on the grounds that municipal services, including emergency responders, would have limited access to the subdivision through Southampton. Vincent made a motion to deny the preliminary plan, but that motion failed because of the lack of a second and was never voted upon, although other board members also stated that they would not approve a definitive plan which included the gate at the end of Old Long Pond Road. Board Chairman Phil McEwan said that the preliminary plan is just advisory and is not binding upon the developers, but that it is an opportunity for the board to inform the developer of the board members’ concerns. McEwan said that Old County Road ‘is not up to snuff” as the only access for construction equipment and, eventually, subdivision traffic. “I think we have to bring Southampton to the table, to have their blessing to the final plan.” Vice Chairman William Onyski said “the (Planning) Board feels that the gate is strongly discouraged on the definitive application. Southampton is a pretty big stakeholder but they were not at the arbitration table.” “No gate would allay a lot of Southampton’s concerns,” Onyski said. “Approval of the preliminary plan keeps the city out of immediate (court)

Following a quarantine, Root said Bosco did not appear to be dangerous, but an untrained puppy. “Brett seems to think he is a fearful dog without training,” Root said. “If you’re a dog and unprovoked, it’s likely a fearful biter.” Root recommended Bosco attend training and she would assess him again once training is complete. Root said she would provide Bosco’s owner with a list of local dog trainers, including one that specializes in fearful dogs. Root said the owner was “very receptive” to Colson. Board members considered whether or

Selectwoman Tracy Cesan supported Root’s recommendation. “I think Tracy’s been very reasonable and the dog owner did not show up,” said Cesan. “I think we should demand the dog go to training.” Selectman Joseph Deedy made the motion to require Bosco to attend the next session of dog training available in town, which Root said begins at the end of the month. Cesan also asked that certification of training be provided to the town and Root visit the dog once training is complete.

Connecticut. A cross check of the ownership of the abandoned vehicle and the tenants of the storage facility showed that the owner of the car also rented a storage unit and Southwick’s K-9 team of Officer Thomas Krutka and Jax was called into action. When Jax was tasked to examine the door of the second suspect storage unit he immediately alerted to the presence of narcotics so officers secured that unit until a search warrant was obtained for that storage locker too. When the warrant was secured and executed, the investigators found a vast amount of cash and marijuana which was later found to add up to more than $1.1 million and 118 pounds of marijuana. At a press conference yesterday afternoon
at the Agawam Police Department, the contraband was on display and Agawam Chief Eric P. Gillis said that that marijuana has “an estimated street value of $384,000” and said that the “active and ongoing investigation” involves the Hampden County District Attorney’s office, the U. S. Attorney’s office and the DEA. He said “this case has implications that go well outside the Commonwealth of Massachusetts” and will continue. He said “We do have a target that’s been identified and we do believe that an arrest of that subject is imminent.” Blair appeared in Westfield District Court before Judge Paul M. Vrabel and pleaded guilty to a charge of operating a motor vehicle with a suspended license. He was fined $500.
Mechanic St., where a residence was recently demolished. Levesque said that in consideration of the parking lot’s abutting resident, Ray Rivera, a former Planning Board member now serving on the Municipal Light Board, at 16 Mechanic St. , a privacy screening of arborvitaes and a stockade fence, with the color of the fence determined by Rivera, will be installed and that a light pole will be installed near Rivera’s property line with the light shielded to illuminate only the parking lot. A billboard position on the roof of the building has already been removed to comply with the board’s request, Levesque said. The property owner is opposed to closing off access to the front of the building from Main Street, a request proposed by board member Carl Vincent because of safety concerns about traffic, especially eastbound traffic which would have to cross two westbound travel lanes and the dedicated left turn lane for eastbound motorists attempting to enter Mechanic Street. “There are two existing curb cuts (on Main and Mechanic Streets),” Levesque said. “It is not an option to close the Main Street access. It would kill the project.” Vincent also suggested erection of an ornamental fence for the rear parking area along Mechanic Street, which Levesque said he would bring to the attention of his client. Board member Jane Magarian suggested that the number of proposed handicapped parking spaces, currently one, be increased in the parking area in the front of the building. Vice Chairman William Onyski suggested that the Main Street access be one-way into the property and that the Mechanic Street access be two-way for access and egress. “We’re trying to make this project as safe as possible,” Levesque said. The board voted to continue the public hearing to its Nov. 18 session to allow Levesque further time to address the additional issues and concerns raised by the board members.

Tigers top Saints for title By Chris Putz Staff Writer WESTFIELD – The Westfield Vocational-Technical High School boys’ soccer team could not have ever asked for a better senior night. Westfield Voc-Tech shut out St. Mary 5-0 at Bullens Field Tuesday evening to remain unbeaten at 15-0, and, more importantly, clinch the Tri-County League championship. “It’s great to bring a soccer championship to the school again,” Voc-Tech coach Kyle Dulude said. “The boys are extremely proud of this accomplishment.” Dmitry Stepanchuk tallied a hat trick, Dan Zarichnyy scored one goal, and an own goal led to Voc-Tech’s five goals. Vitally Melnik, Dominic Rosario, Tyler Hall, and Alex Stepanchuk each had one assist. Tigers’ goalie Vitaly Covileac made nine saves; St. Mary goalie Colin Blake had 17. “The defense stayed solid and came up
with the plays when needed,” coach Dulude said. St. Mary applied great pressure at the end of the first half, hitting the post, but Voc-Tech regrouped at halftime and prevailed. “This win was great for our school and represents the hard work our studentathletes put in day after day,” the Tigers coach explained. St. Mary fell to 10-4-1. JV BOYS’ SOCCER Southwick 3, South Hadley 0 Matt Daley had one goal and one assist, and Jameson Secovich and Mason Kowal scored one goal apiece to lead Southwick to victory. Tim McGrath and Dan Gawron each had one assist. The Southwick JV unit, which shut out Monson with the same score Friday thanks to goals from Dylan Buscemi, McGrath, and Kacper Kisala and two Patrick King assists (and one from Kowal), stayed unbeaten at 14-0.
LATE RESULTS GIRLS’ SOCCER Westfield 1, Northampton 0 Morgan Sanders scored the gamewinner on a pass from Lindsay Stefano with 13:45 left in regulation, and Jessica Healey (11 saves) earned a shutout to lift Westfield Monday. BOYS’ SOCCER Amherst 4, Westfield 0 Westfield fell to 7-5-4 with a shutout against unbeaten Amherst (14-0-2) Monday night at Bullens Field. “We got beat pretty good,” Westfield coach Andrew Joseph said. “I think Amherst definitely showed why they’re number one in Western Massachusetts, and undefeated.” “Our focus is on preparing for the postseason,” he added. “I think if we look at it in those terms, this game did a lot for us as far as getting us ready for the tournament. Our sole focus in on the St. Mary’s Drew Collins, left, slides to the ball as Westfield next 12 days.” Voc-Tech’s Peter Melnik moves in during last night’s game at Bullens Field.

Walker, WHS win By Chris Putz Staff Writer WESTFIELD – There is one thing for certain in life – the Westfield High School gymnastics team will win. And win big they did. Westfield secured another first-place victory, scoring 132.55 points to defeat Chicopee Comp (124.175) and Agawam (116.50) Tuesday.

Annie’s Mailbox By KATHY MITCHELL and MARCY SUGAR
Was it OK ... ? Dear Annie: A few years ago, I obtained a quote from a company for a manufacturing service. My business ended up not using them. Two months later, I received an invitation from this company to an open house. I initially thought, “How nice.” However, on reading further, it said a religious organization would give a presentation and donations would be encouraged. I felt I was being used. Within the week, I received a follow-up call regarding the original quote. I informed them that their prices were not in our range, and at some point during the conversation, I gently mentioned that I thought the open house invitation was in poor taste. I probably should have been more diplomatic, but I thought the person on the other end could use some constructive criticism. In return, I was blasted. It turns out she was the daughter of the owner. In yelling at me, she also said that one of her sisters suffers from a genetic birth defect and that the presentation was to raise funds for the disease. After all this time, it still bothers me. I just figured this family-owned business was giving jobs to relatives who perhaps were unaware of appropriate business practices. Was it OK for this company to use its business contacts to try to raise funds for a charity this way? -- A Reader Dear Reader: First of all, if the religious presentation was to raise funds for a specific medical cause, it should have been stated on the original invitation. Otherwise, people could easily get the wrong idea, as you did. And while we cannot blame a family for wanting to reach out to as many contacts as possible, it was inappropriate to use their minor business contact with you to solicit funds for a personal charity. But it would have been better had you not chastised the company employee over the phone, even with good intentions. A simple “yes” or “no” to the invitation would have sufficed, and then this wouldn’t be bothering you years later. Please try to let it go. Dear Annie: My sister lives 30 minutes away. We all pile into my parents’ car for the ride. The problem is, my sister serves disgusting food: fish that’s not fresh, and salad drenched in dressing that she makes hours in advance, so it gets soggy. She covers the table in glitter, which gets into the food. Bringing a dish is not allowed. I usually eat lunch before going so I won’t be hungry. When my sister asks why I’m not eating, I make some excuse. What should I do? I don’t want to say her cooking is horrible. Should I just put up with it? -- Big City Dear Big City: How often do you go? If it’s less than once a month, we’d put up with it. How sensitive is your sister to criticism? If you go every week, you might offer to bring a dish by saying, “You host so often, I feel guilty not helping out. I insist on bringing the salad.” Your sister may also learn (in time) to be a better cook and get the glitter off the table. Right now, she’s still trying to impress you. Dear Annie: I read the letter from “Salem, Ore.,” the couple wondering how to tell friends and family not to buy them Christmas gifts. Years ago, our parents told us the same thing. They asked that instead of buying for them, we buy for someone else. Many stores in our area have a “giving tree.” Each ornament has a gift idea and a child’s age and size. I was thrilled to find a tag for a little girl who wanted Barbie doll clothes, as I make those. The gifts are then taken to the area social services to be distributed. The stores are also involved with the food pantry at our church. There are so many people in need. -- Giving Annie’s Mailbox is written by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar, longtime editors of the Ann Landers column. Please email your questions to anniesmailbox@comcast.net
HINTS FROM HELOISE SAVE TIME Dear Heloise: When I go to the grocery store, I bring a permanent marker. I write the produce codes on the plastic bags I put it in. At the self-checkout, it’s much easier to punch in the code than to find it on the tiny sticker or search the “find item” option on the register. -- J. Blenner in Las Vegas CLOSET ORGANIZER Dear Heloise: I use S-shaped shower-curtain hooks in the closet to hang purses, scarves and jackets. Better than in a box on the floor. The rings are convenient for hanging anything. I can grab my jackets quicker when running out and put them back when coming home from a long day. It is easier to keep the closet clean if I can hang clothes quickly. Sometimes I hang jeans, shirts, etc., on the hooks, and when I have time later, I put them on hangers. -- T.A. in Ohio EASY REMINDER Dear Heloise: I have a skin regimen that consists of six products that are applied one after the other, in order. Each product has its own place in the package. To remember which bottle I used last, I turn the bottle when returning it to the mold, showing its backside. The bottle with its front showing is my reminder that it is the next application. At the end of the line, all products will have their backs showing. -- Lynette in Hawaii Aloha! How is Hawaii? Memories of living there as a child always make me smile! -- Mucho mahalo, Heloise

HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Wednesday, Oct. 22, 2014: This year you will run into your share of challenges, and you often could feel as if you are in the midst of a power play. Some of you might have very controlling people in your life. The only way to bypass their behavior is not to play their game. If you are single, take your time getting to know someone before considering making a commitment. Be aware that someone special might turn up. If you are attached, the two of you often separate for short periods. The freedom you give each other will intensify the times you are together. LIBRA can be very gracious.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) HHHH You might want to reconsider various options that might seem like they are being shoved down your throat. Claim your power, and make choices that work for you. You could be creating a lot of aggravation around you. Don’t worry -- it will pass. Tonight: Hang with a dear friend. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHH Pace yourself, and get as much done as possible. You could feel as if you are trying too hard to get on top of a situation. You might need a break more than you realize. Sometimes it’s OK to take an afternoon off from the daily grind. Tonight: Do something just for you. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHHH You might want to make a change to your schedule without making a big deal out of it. The person who dropped this surprise on you was looking for a reaction. If you don’t want this behavior to repeat, be calm and direct. Tonight: Flirt up a storm. CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHHH You could be exhausted by what is happening around you. You might question what choices you have. Make a point to detach in order to gain a more encompassing perspective at this moment. A family matter will cause a lot of chatter and calls! Tonight: Head home. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHHH You keep conversations moving with little effort. Make time to schedule a checkup with the doctor or dentist. Your nerves seem to be more frayed than usual. Dealing with someone at a distance will force you to detach. Tonight: Where you are, everyone has a good time. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) HHHH Tap into your creativity, but don’t take a risk right now; otherwise, it could backfire. Someone -- and it might be you -- could be overreacting about a financial matter. You might not like what the possibilities are. Try to see the big picture. Tonight: Happy to be alone. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHHH You might say too much if you are not careful. You generally weigh your words with care, but a touchy or difficult situation could be taking its toll on you. Friends seem to surround you, and they’ll want to help you perk up. If you can, let it happen. Tonight: All smiles. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHH You could experience low-level fatigue. You might keep replaying a certain situation over and over again in your mind. A must appearance will work out far better than you would have thought possible. Those around you are likely to be impressed. Tonight: Do a vanishing act. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHHH Rethink an agreement involving finances. You could be unusually exhausted by a loved one who is an energizer in your life and full of surprises. Screen calls from friends, as they likely are about social matters. Try to squeeze in some R and R. Tonight: Be nice. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHH You could be a major force in a power play without even realizing it. A conversation with a respected associated or someone who wants to be respected could be more informative than you might have imagined. Listen well. Tonight: A force to be dealt with. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHHH You will be seeking answers. You might be willing to reach out to just about anyone in order to see if they can help. Don’t hesitate to call someone you consider to be an expert. You’ll resolve an issue and come up with a great solution. Tonight: Go for something unusual.
Cryptoquip
Crosswords
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHHH Reach out to a loved one you can count on. At first, it might appear as if your goals are significantly different. Honor your differences, and you could see where there is a similarity. You both might be motivated by the same issue but have different responses. Tonight: Togetherness.

Patriots prepare for Bears
Zomek a winner; AM start ahead
By HOWARD ULMAN AP Sports Writer FOXBOROUGH, Mass. (AP) — A threeday break gave the New England Patriots time to savor three straight wins. Now they can focus on fixing the problems the winning streak couldn’t hide. A suspect run defense. A mediocre offensive line. Replacing injured players. The Patriots returned to practice Tuesday hoping to solve all that — and soon. After a home game against the Chicago Bears on Sunday, the Patriots face one strong team after another — Denver, Indianapolis, Detroit, Green Bay and San Diego in succession. And three of those games, against the Colts, Packers and Chargers, are on the road. The Patriots (5-2) squeaked by the lowly New York Jets last Thursday night, 27-25, when Nick Folk’s 58-yard field goal attempt on the final play was blocked. It was the Jets’ sixth straight loss, but they had a more than 2-to-1 advantage in time of possession. “That’s something, as an offense, that we would like to have more control over the football,” running back Shane Vereen said Tuesday. “A lot of that comes into the running game, which we’re going to have to do a very good job of this week.” After Stevan Ridley suffered a season-ending injury to his right knee the previous Sunday, Vereen had a busy night against the Jets. He was on the field for a season high 80 percent of the Patriots offensive plays, caught two touchdown passes and rushed 11 times for 43 yards. “I would say it’s a slight adjustment” to play without Ridley, Vereen said. “I wouldn’t say it’s anything major. They always prepare us for anything and so, therefore, when something does happen like Stevan going down, everyone’s ready to go.” The defense still has a way to go without star linebacker Jerod Mayo. He also was sidelined for the season with a right knee injury sustained in the same game as Vereen. His absence contributed to the Jets gaining a season-high 218 yards rushing. “It was a lot of communication problems, so
By CHRIS PUTZ Staff Writer Congratulations are in order for Frank Zomek, of Westfield who compiled a record of 11-2 in our weekly pro football contest, “Beat the Putz”. There were a total of nine entries – eight others at 10-3 – who beat my Week 7 mark of 9-4. All of those contest sheets will be entered into our grand prize drawing. Get your coffee brewing early this Sunday morning as the Lions-Falcons game kicks off at Wembley Stadium at 9:30 a.m. Eastern Standard Time. While that game, expected to be televised nationally by FOX, is sure to whet the appe-
it wasn’t just (Mayo) not being there,” defensive tackle Casey Walker said. “Of course, we missed him being there, but it was a lot of communication, a lot of stuff that we did wrong, not as much as what (the Jets) did right.” Walker expects the Patriots to improve in time for Sunday’s game when they’ll face Matt Forte, fifth in the NFL in rushing and first in receptions. “He does an excellent job of burst and explosion through the line of scrimmage,” New England defensive coordinator Matt Patricia said. “He has incredibly quick feet and some good quickness to get to the edge. ... They’ve also extended him out a little bit and put him in different positions where they can now feature him and give him the ball out in space.” The Bears (3-4) lost to Miami 27-14 last Sunday in Chicago. But they’re 3-1 on the road and tied for fifth in the NFL in takeaways. “They’re known for being ballhawks,” Vereen said. “They must practice it day in and day out because other teams try but they’re much more successful in Chicago.” The Patriots are 3-0 at home but two of those wins were against the Jets and Oakland, who have a combined record of 1-12. In fact, the Patriots have yet to play a team currently ranked higher than 13th in the AP Pro32-Power Rankings. After facing No. 19 Chicago, four of the No. 8 Patriots’ next five games are against teams rated in the top seven. And they weren’t particularly impressive against the Jets, now ranked 29th. “The odds of us winning that game statistically were very much stacked against us,” coach Bill Belichick said. Holding the ball for just 19 minutes, 6 seconds, being outgained by 100 yards and having 12 fewer first downs likely won’t produce a victory against a better team. “We’re just getting more comfortable with each other and starting to trust each other a lot more” on offense, Vereen said. “Some of the mistakes we were making earlier we’ve kind of corrected, but we still have a long way to go.”
tite, the Bears-Patriots get things started across the rest of the National Football League at 1 p.m. Eight games are slated for the early afternoon kickoff. Intrigue should build to a deafening roar in the afternoon as the one-loss Eagles and oneloss Cardinals meet in the Arizona desert. Andrew Luck marches the Colts into the Steel City to face Big Ben and the Pittsburgh Steelers. Then, in a superb Sunday night showdown – our tiebreaker game – Aaron Rodgers and the high-flying Green Bay Packers travel to New Orleans to take on the surprisingly struggling Saints and Drew Brees. It should be a fun day of football! Get your picks in, and good luck.
