Sharing his Olympic memories Brian Selenski talks about being in London By SARAH HITE Dallas Post Correspondent

If a picture is worth a thousand words, how many words could be used to describe the more than 1,000 photos Brian Selenski and his family took while in London for the 2012 Olympic games? Answer: Very few, if any. Selenski, whose daughter Paige was a member of the U.S. Olympic field hockey team, has trouble finding the words to describe his experience overseas, watching his own

ent experience in itself. “It was my first time in Europe,” said Brian. “It was different, with the driving on the wrong side of the road. Even the steering wheel’s on the opposite side. And the food - it’s not like the food we have here.” The Selenskis got around by the London tube during their trip, visiting Big Ben, London Bridge, the Tower of London and other sites in between the Olympic madness.

At the Dallas High School, students and staff will work and learn in a new five-period, fiveday cycle schedule which offers students the opportunity to take up to 10 academic credits per school year. New courses such as Extreme Fitness, Broadcasting, Introduction to Theater and Foods of Today are now a reality because of the new facilities. Advanced Placement course offerings now include Statistics and United States Government and Politics. Students are also offered a daily “Academic Options” period, a 25-minute block of time added to a different class period each day. During this time, teachers have the “option” to extend their lesson, remediate and/or enrich student learning, make up missed work due to absence, conduct small group sessions, bring in a guest speaker, etc. A number of new faculty members have joined the DHS staff, including Matt Kelly, long-term substitute, guidance; Nancy Roberts, wellness; Matt Samuel, long-term substitute, English; Doug Mucha and Casey Cicale, special education; Marc Golden, technology.

Capt. Frank Michael offers advice

Misericordia alumnus and Dallas native speaks at university’s convocation.

Misericordia graduate Capt. Frank J. Michael III offered incoming freshmen four pieces of sage advice: “work hard, stay focused, have fun and stand tall,’’ during the university’s annual convocation ceremony in the Wells Fargo Amphitheater.

Misericordia University alumnus Frank J. Michael III, a U.S. Navy captain and a member of the class of 1986, welcomed the largest freshman class in the 88year history of the institution to campus on Aug. 23 by providing them with four pieces of sage advice: “work hard, stay focused, have fun and stand tall’’ during the annual convocation ceremony in the Wells Fargo Amphithe-

ater. “Work hard, each and every day,” said Capt. Michael, assigned to the Chief of Naval Operations Strategic Studies Group in Newport, R.I. “You just can’t get around it. Just passing or meeting a minimum should never be your measure; let excellence be your benchmark. This university will do many things for you, but it won’t do your work - that’s on you. Your commitment to excel and achieve your personal best will be rewarded.” A native of Dallas, Capt. Michael earned his Bachelor of Sci-

ence degree in nursing at Misericordia in 1986 and shortly thereafter launched his career in the military. He has experienced the turbulence of the Middle East, the scenic beauty of Africa and exotic cultures of the Orient in Singapore, Hong Kong and Indonesia during his 26 years in the Navy. The Navy has recognized his service to country and humankind by presenting him with the Legion of Merit, Defense Meritorious Service Medal, two Meritorious Service Medals and an Air Medal.

During the convocation ceremony, which marks the start of the new academic year at MU, Capt. Michael also told the 524 members of the freshman class how important it is for them to See MICHAEL, Page 10

CELEBRATE READING A celebration of reading was held on Aug. 16 at the Back Mountain Memorial Library for members of the summer reading club, “Dream Big! READ!” The three levels of reading read-to-me, readers and teens were recognized and congratulated by families in attendance. Also recognized were members of Boy Scout Troop 281 under the leadership of Lee Ann Burkhart, Erica Wintersteen and Mae Rome who volunteered throughout the summer, helping children’s librarian Janet Bauman with all the special programs and crafts associated with the summer reading program. Parent prizes were awarded by a drawing to these families: the Dudicks, the McGuires, the Janoskis and the Colatostis. The Relax & Read winner was Becky Anderson. The audience then enjoyed a presentation by the Take the

Stage Players under the direction of Chris Metz. Metz’ daughter, Caitlyn, wrote and directed the special play to remind all summer readers and their families that no one is never too old to dream or use their imaginations. Refreshments were provided by Erin Yatsko of Travel Twist (ice cream bars and popsicles), Amy Pimm (sheet cakes), Roberta Brighthaupt (chips and pretzels), Pepsi (bottled water) and the American Education Services (backpacks). Volunteers who served the children from the food booth included Noreen Gladey, staff; Anna Korey, retired staff; Heather Pitcavage and Karen Laskowski, Dallas teachers.

PROPERTY TRANSFERS

The Harveys Lake Protection Association is seeking donations from residents to maintain three islands at the entrance to the lake.

HLPA appeals to residents for help The Harveys Lake Protective Association is once again appealing to borough residents to contribute to the Island maintenance Fund. The organization asked for contributions in 2004 to landscape and beautify the three traffic islands at the entrance to the lake at a cost of $16,000. To pay for the project, the goal of the association was to raise $6,000 from private contributions, receive $6,000 from United Water in lieu of restoring the islands after it had dug them up and use $4,000 from the HLPA treasury. The organization far ex-

ceeded the $6,000 goal and has been able to use the remaining amount to maintain the islands for the past eight years. The funds have been used for weeding, mulching, fall cleanup, spring cleanup, light bulb replacement spraying weed killer, planting of four trees, daffodils, tulips and replacing dead plants when necessary. Earlier this summer, the islands received a major cleanup, mulching and additional plants were added as needed. That work cost several thousand dollars and has depleted the remaining funds, except for a couple hundred dollars.

MOMENTS IN TIME

By Samantha Weaver

• It’s still not known who made the following sage observation: “To succeed in politics, it is sometimes necessary to rise above your principles.” • It was beloved American poet Robert Frost who made the following sage observation: “A bank is a place where they lend you an umbrella in fair weather and ask for it back when it begins to rain.” • In 1938, Time magazine featured Adolph Hitler on the cover as its Man of the Year. • You might be surprised at some of the amazing feats that can be accomplished with the aid of modern medicine. In 2008, two women in India gave birth at the age of 70. With the aid of egg donation and postmenopausal in vitro fertilization, Rajo Devi Lohan gave birth to her only child, a girl. Charan Singh Panwar and his wife, Omkari Panwar, already had two daughters and five grandchildren, but they wanted a son. Using the same procedure, Omkari had twins, a boy and a girl. • The first time a toilet was ever seen on television was in the pilot episode of “Leave It to Beaver” in 1957. • The most common name in the world is Muhammed. • If you live in the South, home of huge roaches, you probably won’t be surprised to learn that a cockroach can live for a week without a head. When the headless insect does finally die, it’s from starvation, not from the loss of its head. • Those who study such things say that there are 45,000 chickens for every person on the planet. ••• Thought for the day: “The reason that adulation is not displeasing is that, though untrue, it shows one to be of consequence enough, in one way or other, to induce people to lie.” - Lord Byron

“May MacDowell Hall be appreciated by future students who will consider it their home while here at Misericordia. May it always grace this university that we hold so dear to our hearts.”

The Misericordia University community officially dedicated Michael and Tina MacDowell Hall, the newest building on campus on Aug. 23 to acknowledge the significant leadership and accomplishments of the president and the first lady. “To put our name on this lovely new residence hall and classroom building is more than an honor – it is the nicest gift we have ever received,” President MacDowell said with his wife, Tina, by his side at the dedication ceremony. “However, it is hardly ours’ alone. If all the names of everyone who has worked so hard and strived to make Misericordia what it is today were placed on the façade of this building, it would need to be 12 stories high.” “In Spanish, one welcomes another to their home by saying, ‘Mi casa es su casa’ – my home is your home,’’ said the first lady, Tina MacDowell. “May MacDowell Hall be appreciated by future students who will consider it their home while here at Misericordia. May it always grace this university that we hold so dear to our hearts.’’ President and Mrs. MacDowell announced in April they will retire June 30, 2013 after serving 15 years. Two months after their formal announcement, the board of trustees expressed its gratitude for the couple’s leadership by naming the new building in their honor. MacDowell Hall is being made possible by a $1 million pledge to the university by the board, according to John Metz, chair of the Misericordia University Board of Trustees. “Mike and Tina, on this very special day, we recognize your steadfast commitment to Misericordia University, its students, faculty, alumni and the community-at-large,” Metz said in his welcome address. “Your contribu-

Library benefits from show

Six cast members, (none older than 9 years of age) rhymed their way through the fourth and last of the plays for this summer by the Take the Stage Players. “Rap- Punzel” was a funny and “pun-filled“ version of the classic fairy tale. Rappers, played by Grace Washsey and Lily Matthews, didn’t miss a beat narrating the story of a Wife, (played by Sarah Gurzynski), demanding vegetable greens from the Witch’s (played by Evelyn Toennes), Garden. The doting husband (played by Alex Metz) picks the greens for his expecting wife and is caught by the Witch. As punishment, when Rapunzel is born, she is reluctantly given to the Witch for the husband’s crime of stealing the Witch’s garden greens. Rapunzel, (played by Julia Macey) grows up in a tall, ivory tower and soon a Prince (played also by Alex Metz) appears and wants to save Rapunzel. But the Witch has heard them speaking and cuts off Rapunzel’s hair and banishes her to the forest.

Julia Macy as Rapunzel is shown at the top of the tower during a performance of “Rap-Punzel by Take the Stage Players at the Back Mountain Memorial Library. From left, are Evelyn Toennes as the Witch, Lily Matthews as Rapper, Alex Metz as Prince, Grace Washsey as Rapper and Sarah Gurzynski as the Wife.

The Prince, stricken from the Witch’s magic, is soon discovered by Rapunzel and her tears wash away the “bad” magic and all live “happily-ever-after.”

The shows were held recently on the auction block at the Back Mountain Memorial Library in Dallas with proceeds benefiting the library.

pay attention to details, while managing to save some time to have fun and enjoy their collegiate careers. “Some of the most exciting and rewarding times of your life will happen during your four years here,’’ he told the freshmen, and their family and friends in the audience. “The closest friendships you will ever have will be made right here among this group of men and women sitting next to you. You will come to regard this faculty not just as teaching professionals, but as some of the best life coaches and mentors you will ever know.’’ Capt. Michael earned an officer’s commission in the Navy through Aviation Officer Candidate School and was designated a naval aviator in December 1988. Following initial flight training, he reported to Helicopter Anti-Submarine Squadron Light (HSL)-32 at Naval Air Station, Norfolk, Va. where he completed three deployments. He then reported as a flight instructor to Naval Air Station Whiting Field in Milton, Fla. where he also earned a Master of Arts degree in public administration from the University of West Florida. In June 1995, Capt. Michael reported to the amphibious assault ship USS Guam (LPH 9), Naval Station Norfolk, Va. where he made a Mediterranean Sea deployment and earned his Officer of the Deck Underway qualification. Following flight transition to the SH-60B Seahawk helicopter, he reported to Helicopter Anti-Submarine Squadron Light (HSL-43) Naval Air Station, North Island, Calif. where he deployed to the Western Pacific and served as the squadron’s maintenance officer. He reported to Helicopter Anti-Submarine Squadron Light (HSL-47) as the Executive Officer in May 2003 and 16 months later assumed command of the squadron while under way on the

The U.S. field hockey team did not medal during the event, and Brian said many of the players, including his daughter, were very disappointed in their results. “It wasn’t enough for them to have gotten to the Olympics they wanted to bring home a medal,” he said. “Everyone said Paige played well, though. I think she did.” And Brian considers himself lucky to have gotten the chance to see Paige and the rest of the women play - he said tickets for other events were exorbitantly priced. “We went to go see the track and field events, and the tickets cost about $700 for one person,” said Brian. “I don’t know many parents who went to the

Bishop Bamber will speak at Misericordia

U.S. Navy Captain Frank J. Michael III, a native of Dallas, gathered with his family prior to the convocation ceremony at Misericordia University. He and four of his siblings are Misericordia graduates along with his mother, Patricia (Polly), who earned both her bachelor’s and master’s degrees at the campus and held several positions at Misericordia including school nurse, director of counseling services and associate professor of nursing. From left, are Tracey Michael Carr, Katie Michael Kapral, Trish Michael O’Connell, all of Dallas; Patricia ‘Polly’ Michael and Frank J. Michael Jr., of Dallas; Capt. Frank J.

Under his command, HSL-47 completed a Western Pacific deployment with Carrier Air Wing Two and the Abraham Lincoln Carrier Strike Group as the first Seahawk helicopter (SH-60B) squadron ever to integrate with a Carrier Air Wing. His squadron played a leading role in Operation Unified Assistance, providing humanitarian assistance and disaster relief to the northern region of Indonesia that was devastated by a tsunami in 2004. Soon after returning from deployment, Capt. Michael led a combined east and west coast helicopter search-and-rescue operation in the wake of Hurricane Katrina. As a helicopter commander, he rescued 69 people from rooftops in New Orleans, La. In July 2008, Capt. Michael reported to the amphibious assault ship USS Boxer (LHD 4) as the

The initial PTO meeting for the school year will be held at 7 opening ceremonies - it cost about $5,000 a ticket - but Paige said it was the most amazing thing she’d ever seen in her life.” That price wasn’t too expensive for one famous Brit whom Brian spotted just a few seats away while taking in the track meet. “I was in my seat and people started gathering around,” he said. “I looked over and it was Paul McCartney sitting a few seats away. I just started taking his picture.” Between all the excitement from the games, the entire Selenski clan even got one day to spend together while Paige was resting in between events. “I asked her if she wanted to go sight-seeing and she said she was too beat up,” laughed Brian. But the real fun was when Brian saw Paige play for the first time as an Olympian. “I got goosebumps,” he said. "There were tens of thousands of people rushing in like it was for a major football game. Then they announced her name and sang the ‘Star Spangled Banner’ and the hair stood up on the back of my neck.” Brian said Paige suffered from “Olympic hangover” after

Paige played her first field hockey game with her University of Virginia team on Aug. 24. “It’s a big adjustment from playing at the Olympics to playing in Virginia,” said Brian. He believes his daughter will continue to excel in athletics, and he’s more than ready to go along for the ride. “Right off the bat, she said she wants to make it to the World Cup in two years,” he said. “I’m very fortunate that God blessed me with a child that has achieved something so amazing.”

Jr. Mounts continue win streak

Rec Center plans soccer camps

B TEAM Dallas 32 Plymouth 8 The Dallas Jr. Mounts continued their winning ways this week with a 32-8 win over the Plymouth Indians. Jacob Esposito opened the scoring for the Jr. Mounts with a 15-yard run around the right side. Steven Newell added another with a run around the left behind key blocks by Sean Cuba and Blaine Rex. Plymouth closed the gap with a second quarter touchdown to bring the halftime score to 16-8. Newell opened the second half with a kickoff return for a touchdown and then later took a swing pass from Esposito to seal the game. The Dallas defense was

tough all day long, giving up only three first downs. Led by Xander Shaner and Ethan Scoscia, the Jr. Mounts defense had multiple tackles for loss. Jack Zeyher added a fumble recovery to the tenacious performance by the defense. This week’s game against the Back Mountain Bobcats will see both teams enter the game undefeated in a rematch of the first round playoff game from last year. C TEAM Dallas 42 Plymouth 6 The Dallas Junior Mounts C-team recorded its second victory in as many tries, beating the Plymouth Indians, 42-6. The Dallas defense was

impressive, holding the Indians to one score late in the game. The defensive line controlled the line of scrimmage and shut down Plymouth with repeated stops in their backfield. The Dallas offense was clicking on all cylinders with Jared Adamski leading the way with two touchdowns. Brennan Eggleston,and Ayden Berndt also tallied one TD apiece. Rookie Duane Craig scored his first touchdown, carrying the ball six times on an impressive drive and finally bulling his way into the endzone for the score. The Junior Mounts look to remain undefeated, taking on the 2-0 Back Mountain Bobcats today.
