t’s no stretch to say that this November Massachusetts voters will go to the polls and vote in favor of legalizing the use of marijuana for medicinal purposes. The state’s history with marijuana-themed ballot questions and polling during this election cycle all show it won’t even be a close count. There are two ways we can go about this: One is to take a tactic used by the state legislature and ignore this issue with the hope that no elected ofďŹ cial must ever mutter the word “marijuanaâ€? on the sacred statehouse oor (please folks, Beacon Hill has seen far worse); or two, politicians, policy crafters and the medical community could actually see this is a reality, and work to make the law the tightest, safest and most productive medical marijuana bill in the country. So far, it doesn’t look good. It’s now almost August, just three months before the election, and all the attention geared toward Election Day is reserved for the presidential and senate races. But what if people were talking about this massive change to state policy and health care? Worcester Mag reached out to folks across the state, and even some in Maine where marijuana has been legal with a doctor’s note for nearly two years now, about what’s in this bill and where we go from here. In short: it’s time to start paying attention.

WOO-TOWN INDE X

WooTown Index: An itemized list of Worcester’s ups and downs this week.

The 11th annual George Street Challenge brings bikers to downtown Worcester a weekend after Summer Nationals’ burnouts tear up Main Street. Races without plumes of smoke? It can be done. The Tornadoes snap a nine-game slump with a win over the Rockland Boulders while the Red Sox continue their slide. It’s not even the dog days of August yet, so baseball fans, brace yourselves. The Worcester Police Department asks the public for help identifying the killer of Jonathan Kapulka who was shot off of Grafton Street while watching the July 3 fireworks. “It is believed that earlier the suspect was in the area unmasked just prior to the shooting. Investigators believe that the suspect was observed by numerous potential witnesses…not only in the parking lot but also parked on Penn Avenue and Barkley Street watching the fireworks,” the police said. Anyone with information is urged to call the detective bureau at 508-799-8651. Another shooting during an altercation on Grand Street on Saturday morning lands a victim in the hospital with what’s described as nonlife threatening injuries. Police continue to investigate. Massachusetts unemployment rate stays at 6 percent, but the state loses 2,400 jobs over the month of June. Jason D. Briddon, a former parttime Rutland police officer, is found guilty on charges of rape and assault and battery with a dangerous weapon after a 2007 incident that took place in Worcester’s William Street neighborhood. According to reporting in the Holden Landmark, Briddon is already in prison because he was sentenced to 10-12 years on unrelated charges of raping and beating a prostitute in Worcester in February 2010. Movie-goers flock to the Worcester Common on Thursday night to see “Jaws” on the big screen. You’re last chance to catch a movie on the common this year, put on by Worcester Film Works, is August 16 with their showing of “The Princess Bride.” W O R C E S T E R M A G .

{ citydesk } Worcester’s bond ordinance paying dividends July 26 - Aug. 1, 2012 ■ Volume 37, Number 47

Walter Bird Jr.

ll but one of the 11 banks into which the city deposits money are in compliance with Worcester’s 2009 Vacant and/or Foreclosed Property Ordinance, according to officials. In addition, of the banks with registered foreclosure properties in the city only two have posed a problem. The ordinance is a big reason why, according to Amanda Wilson of the city’s Department of Inspectional Services. It requires banks to register properties with the city and post a $5,000 bond. Once it deducts a $500 administrative fee — part of a so-called “ten-percent fund” — the city holds the rest of the money as insurance that the bank, or some other agency designated by that institution, meets certain criteria throughout the foreclosure process. That includes maintaining the property in a proper manner. Should the bank fail to do so, the city can access the bond to take care of the property. Once the property is sold, the bank receives the balance of the bond. The city currently holds 583 foreclosure bonds, according to the treasurer’s office. They have provided the city almost $300,000 in fees. The ordinance allows Worcester to use that money to secure, maintain and inspect other vacant or foreclosed properties. “We can hold foreclosing banks accountable now, well before the bank issues a foreclosure deed,” Wilson says. “We’ve made huge strides in making contact with banks throughout the country.” Worcester enacted its ordinance as one way to increase accountability and it appears to be working. Among the banks with which the city conducts financial business, only TD Bank has proven noncompliant with the ordinance. In a July 11 memo to City Manager Michael O’Brien, Chief Financial Officer Thomas Zidelis said there were five TD Bank properties subject to the ordinance that had not been recorded. An attempt to reach a TD Bank spokesperson for comment was unsuccessful. Wilson said the city has had problems with two financial institutions — Wells Fargo and Freddie Mac (Federal Loan Home Mortgage Corporation). A list of registered vacant and/or foreclosing properties in Worcester shows Wells Fargo has initiated about 32 foreclosures in Worcester. “We’ve had some difficulty with Wells Fargo,” discloses Wilson. “They’ve

registered some properties. Some they have not.” Reached for comment, Jim Hines, a Wells Fargo consultant, released this statement to Worcester Mag: “Wells Fargo supports laws that have been enacted to preserve and protect property values by fining responsible parties for properties that violate property codes … There are instances, however, where Wells Fargo

serves as trustee for home loans in which the servicer, which may not be Wells Fargo, is responsible for property preservation. If there are any properties with outstanding violations that the city believes to be Wells Fargo-owned or Wells Fargo-serviced, we would welcome the opportunity to research them and, if ours,

{ citydesk } New ownership seeks to untie Canal Market Place from its past Walter Bird Jr.

Few would argue that Canal Market Place, smack in the middle of the city’s Canal District, has been underutilized. What could be debated is why — perhaps an ugly lawsuit, accusations of poor management and a lack of tenants are all factors. Its future could also be questioned, especially with the only current business on the property apparently set to leave soon. Upton resident Kevin Curtis would rather focus on moving forward and the potential of success than on past problems and the possibility of failure. Curtis, along with Mark Winiker, of Holliston, as part of Canal Market Place Development LLC, recently took ownership of the building complex at an auction with a winning bid of $1.425 million. It could signal the revitalization of a long struggling property — which is framed by Harding, Temple and Winter streets and is also home to the

old St. John’s High School gymnasium. “I think it’s up-and-coming over the next few years,” says Curtis, a developer who owns a masonry business in Upton and a Honey Dew Donuts in Worcester. “I’m very excited about that area.” Curtis and his partner first may have to deal with the loss of the popular Smokestack Urban Barbecue, which occupies a building in Canal Market Place at 90 Harding St. “The owners are looking at other locations very strongly,” a reliable source says of owner Richard Romaine and his partners, one of whom is his wife, Erin. “It’s about 90 percent certain.” Richard Romaine would not confirm that assertion, but offered a dour outlook on the future of Canal Market Place, even as he noted that sales at his restaurant are up 38 percent over last year. “I just don’t see it happening,” Romaine says. “Down the road it could, but the

resolve any property or maintenance concerns.” Freddie Mac has also proven reluctant in registering foreclosure proceedings in Worcester. On the opposite end of the spectrum is Fannie Mae, with whom Wilson says the city “has a very good working relationship. We don’t get that same cooperation with Freddie Mac.” On the same list as Wells Fargo, the Bank of America Corporation has in excess of 200 properties, more than any other institution. District 3 Councilor George Russell earlier this year called for the city to stop doing business with Bank of America. The city’s paychecks are drawn on that bank. “Bank of America is the poster child for bad behavior when it comes to bankowned properties and foreclosure in general,” says Russell, who is also a real

estate agent. He cited, as an example, a property at 133 Puritan Ave. belonging to Bank of America. “I have the picture of this house on my Twitter and Facebook because I placed an item on the [council] agenda asking for the report we received [at the last meeting] for the list of properties that the city is holding the $5,000 bond on. After looking at that list my guess is the city is doing a great job at collecting the bond money.” According to Russell, the city “is doing a great job with this bond system. Residents need to know about it.” While the city doesn’t want to be in the real estate business, District 1 Councilor Tony Economou says, the ordinance is an “excellent” tool. “Imagine what our city would look like if we didn’t have this program in place,” he says.

current owners have grand ideas. Nothing happens quickly. It’s going to take some time.” Curtis has big plans for his new property. He also claims to be prepared should Smokehouse depart. “I’m fine with that,” he says of the possible loss of the successful restaurant. “We have a lot of potential tenants lined up. We have more than one potential restaurant, a few very well-known names.” He declined to identify the businesses. As he looks to the future, Curtis is also tied to the past with the man responsible for helping him lure new tenants to the property. Nicholas Fiorillo “finds deals for me,” Curtis shares. Fiorillo is a familiar name on the Worcester scene. He has been involved in many restaurant and entertainment ventures, including the Palladium and now-defunct Irish Times and Bahama Bob’s. He has been involved in bankruptcies and lawsuits. He is on one end of a longtime feud with Commerce Bank Chairman David “Duddie” Massad, has been accused of making threats, and is the subject of an unflattering Web site, nicholasjfiorillo.info. Lawsuits against him have been thrown out and, late last year, a complaint brought against him by a former business associate, William

Chase, with whom Fiorillo was involved in running Carrington Hall at Canal Market Place, was dismissed. “It’s a shame what has happened,” Fiorillo says, arguing poor management has hurt the property. “What I’d like to see is a multifaceted, mixed-use development with office and retail space. We’re looking to redevelop the property and tenant it up.” He calls it “a shame to give one more letter of ink to Bill Chase” and claims, “A lot of the flak I get is because Duddie (Massad) goes around and makes sure every hurdle is put in front of whatever I do.” Chase could not be reached for comment and Massad was unable to be reached before deadline. At-large City Councilor Frederick Rushton said past history plays a role in successful development. “By and large, you want a reputable developer who starts a project, finishes a project and maintains that project going forward,” Rushton explains. Curtis says he has no worries about Fiorillo’s involvement with Canal Market Place and says much of the stagnation on the property is because “the city has taken so long to put money into the area. Now they’re cleaning it up and it’s a matter of time before people see what’s going on.”

V E R BATI M The classification of marijuana as a Schedule I drug as well as the continuing controversy as to whether or not cannabis is of medical value are obstacles to medical progress in this area … it is not accurate that cannabis has no medical value, or that information on safety is lacking. — A line from a University of California – San Diego study called “Medical Marijuana: Clearing Away the Smoke,” published in the Open Neurological Journal in May

{ worcesteria } BUILDINGS IN FLUX:

This week we have a news story on the changes at 90 Harding St., the giant Canal District building that houses Smokestack Urban Barbeque. That’s not the only significant building nearby in flux. Arrow Wholesale, a company that provided merchandise for five-anddime stores and owned the building at 28 Water St. for 90 years, has been forced to liquidate its four floors of items to Building 19 (it took 55 trailers to haul everything away) and shut down the business on May 31 after city and Worcester Fire Department inspectors reportedly found nearly $1 million in repairs needed to bring the building up to code. “They put a 90-year-old business out of business,” says Jamie Ginsburg, son of owner Elliott Ginsburg who said while the inspections weren’t new, the severity was. “They came in with all sorts of new things this time,” he said about the code violations. “They always told us general housekeeping things.”

Ginsburgs, both Jamie and his brother David (who posted his thoughts on his social media marketing business website), are quick to place blame on the changing area and the building next door. “It’s the only [building] on that street that hasn’t been developed yet,” Jamie said, a pointed nod to WinnDevelopment’s Canal Lofts that revitalized the neighboring Chevalier Furniture building. Previously, it was rumored that Winn had interest in the Arrow building, though that has reportedly ceased. (Winn did not immediately return a phone call.) WinnDevelopment and its insurance company did have concerns about the mere four-foot gap between the Chevalier and Arrow buildings though, going so far as to set up a water curtain that would cascade down the side of the Chevalier if a fire broke out in the Arrow building.

MORE DEVELOPMENTS: The large building at 70 Winter St., owned by Selim Lahoud, has also engaged in a legal battle with the City of Worcester that as of July 13 forces Lahoud’s LLC, Red Brick Courtyard, to shut down the building by August 1 and evict all tenants, which include a mortgage company, Go Bare Beauty Salon, Flashhouse Studios and the Boiler Room nightclub. The dispute began in November when city inspectors cited a number of issues including handicap inaccessibility and fire hazards, and later, citing Lahoud for not obtaining permits to have commercial tenants and living in an unauthorized residential apartment in the building. Inaction to resolve these issues has led to a number of dates in front of a housing court judge and contempt rulings against Lahoud, though a number of extensions and fee reductions have also come his way. Naturally, the building’s commercial tenants are concerned. “We don’t know at this point,” says Garry Bates of Evolve Bank and Trust when asked about thier future. Bates says two weeks notice to vacate is too soon for businesses, who are asking the court for at least 60 days. “It’s a nightmare.” Neither Lahoud nor his lawyer returned Worcester Mag’s phone calls. … John Giangregorio of the Canal District Business Association calls these developments the result of “the imperfect storm of high cost of government regulation and the economic downturn we’ve been in for a couple of years,” which led to the issues at 90 Harding, 28 Water and 70 Winter. Giangregorio took the opportunity to again bring up the canal recreation project which would run a replica Blackstone Canal through the district as a way for the city to attract tenants to the area. MEAN STREETS: Worcester still has a ways to go to become a walkable and bike-

friendly city. The latest reminder came on Monday when local music-scene veteran Carl Rasmussen was hit by a car and killed while biking on Park Avenue. In January the Worcester Police Department reported that there were six pedestrian fatalities in 2011 and 325 pedestrian accidents, while 2012 began with two pedestrian deaths on Lincoln Street alone. As city councilors earlier this month brought up the possibility of a bike-share program, it’s a little cart before horse, as it’s unclear whether or not the city has any kind of comprehensive plan that would make biking and walking in Worcester safe and easy. Take the city’s ambitious $20 million street and sidewalk repair program that began in 2011, a perfect opportunity to add bike lanes onto freshly paved streets was wasted when none were incorporated. While it’s nice seeing those new bike lanes painted on Millbury, Water and Green streets, those were mandated by the state and the feds. Before the city even tries to bring in new programs to encourage biking, let’s see if more people can be persuaded to ride with the tried-and-true incentives, like proving that local streets are for more than just cars.

The never-ending story Janice Harvey

Some facts about the Taxi-Cab versus Livery car issue Police Chief Gary Gemme’s own rules and regulations promulgated by him in 2008 require a minimum 2 hour advance notification for livery car service. They are not supposed to pick up on demand fares, they are supposed to schedule pick-ups at least two hours in advance. Livery cars carry far less liability insurance by mandate, and they are supposed to list all their calls on a pre-printed manifest before leaving the garage for the day. All of the Livery car services in the City of Worcester are ignoring this rule, and acting as defacto cab companies. If you call, they say right away, not that you need to make a scheduled pick-up with a 2 hour advance notice. This is illegal, and no one is doing anything about it. The City of Worcester administration, and the police department are turning a blind eye to this practice which is in effect killing the taxi industry in Worcester. Not only is the practice illegal, it is a disservice to the taxpaying public who take these illegal rides as un-manifested passengers in Livery cars who in the event of a collision or other accidental loss will not be able to collect the far higher rates of insurance required of taxi-cabs. A livery car pays on average $2,500 per year, while a taxicab is on the hook for an average of $12,000 per year. The riding public deserves better and the City of Worcester should crack down on this illegal practice. R O N ALD L. O’ C L A I R WOR C ESTE R

It’s morning in America, and I’m about to put on my flip-flops, step outside, fill my musket and hunt down some breakfast. I have the right to do that, because our forefathers guaranteed it in the 2nd Amendment. I’m kind of a Constitution expert – I became one quite recently, after the Supreme Court handed down their decision regarding the Affordable Healthcare Act. I had a lot of company. Facebook was filled with expert analysis of the legitimacy of the ruling. The online debates were filled with passion on either side of the argument, and equal amounts of erroneous information and halfbaked “facts” and theories. Those fiery exchanges were replaced with the sparring spawned by the recent shooting spree in a Colorado movie house. The first few rounds of postings offered helpful suggestions for the judge and jury assigned to determine the fate of the shooter. “Tarring and feathering” hasn’t been ruled out, nor has being drawn and quartered, and stoned in the town square. These are the most humane penalties served up by FB users. Other suggestions were unprintable. Ridiculous beyond belief was the notion that if theater patrons had been armed as well, the death count would have been lessened. Somehow, I doubt that a man carrying an assault rifle while wearing Kevlar body armor would be threatened by a guy in Bermuda shorts carrying a pistol in one hand and Junior Mints in the other. Vituperative responses to such an indescribably horrible act are understandable; a crime so heinous is not to be comprehended, and so the punishment must fit the crime in its scope. How else can we move forward? The second phase of FB feuding on this subject was as predictable as swallows returning to San Juan Capistrano and Frank Beshai running for any available seat in Worcester County. Gun control disputes lit up the Internet; there are few subjects that can polarize like this one. Gun control and

abortion rights have a lot in common when it comes to black and white thinking. Every mass shooting resuscitates this war of words. Cries for more stringent laws roll off the backs of gun lovers. Arguments defending the 2nd Amendment fall on the blocked ears of gun control proponents. The NRA supporters have the edge in the bumper-sticker battle - “I’ll give you my gun when you pry it from my cold, dead hand” and “Guns don’t kill – people do” are two catchy slogans imbedded in our brains as deeply as the Oscar Mayer hot dog song. (My bologna has a first name…). Proponents of gun control haven’t found the infectious phrase that works as well, though photographs of bloodied victims do drive home their message nicely. Gabby Gifford’s stammered speech may not be as eloquent as Charlton Heston’s Moses on the mount, but it will do. So we bicker and blast one another from both sides, endlessly, regarding the right to bear arms vs. the right to not be shot full of holes in a shopping mall. The 2nd Amendment will never be amended; it’s futile to think guns won’t continue to help frightened men and women feel better about themselves and their ability to keep their loved ones safe from harm. There’s power in gun ownership – the same sense of control over one’s environment that comes with driving Humvees. Some psychiatrists link it to penis envy in women – perhaps some unlucky men suffer the same jealousy. Facebook users have a field day with pop psychiatry; such a theory makes for both spirited debate and coarse discourse. The answer is simple: there is no answer. Not until we can eradicate evil from the planet will gun lovers feel safe enough to lay down their weapons, so holding one’s breath for that day is not advised. Maybe comedian Chris Rock had the right idea several years ago when he suggested that we make ammunition unattainable by pricing it out of reach. Rock’s idea was to make a bullet cost $5. “I’d kill you…if I could afford it!” he shouted, and while the absurdity of it made for hilarious entertainment, the simple brilliance of it was not lost. The 2nd Amendment protects the right to bear arms. To my knowledge, nowhere in its carefully crafted wording does it protect the right to buy ammo. No one should be able to buy 6,000 rounds online without working for the Pentagon. Maybe gun control proponents need to circumvent the Constitution by pushing for restrictions regarding the stuff that makes guns dangerous in the first place. In the meantime, I’m heading out to kill me some bacon and eggs. Heads up.

his November 6th, Massachusetts voters will decide whether or not to formally approve a medical marijuana initiative. Though backers want us to believe that this is a tightly-written piece of legislation aimed at giving relief to people with diseases like cancer, the reality is that, if passed, this initiative would allow virtually anyone to get the drug for any reason, serious or not – at state-sponsored pot shops. Main South Alliance believes that citizens have an obligation to inform themselves about this issue, to educate policy-makers and the press about the truth. The “medical” marijuana movement is being pushed by a small group of organizations that have acquired a great deal of money from a tiny group of donors, most notably billionaire. Peter B. Lewis (aka The Prince of Pot), the retired Cleveland, Ohio chief executive of Progressive Auto Insurance Company, has donated $430,000 to the Massachusetts Ballot initiative. Lewis has been publicly associated with marijuana over the years. He was arrested in New Zealand on marijuana and hashish charges in 2000. He has donated millions to the marijuana legalization movement. Voters of Massachusetts should be aware that on May 16th and 17th 2012, the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) and local law enforcement officers searched 41 locations in Northern California agents recovered hundreds of thousands of dollars in cash and numerous fire arms, including guns that were reported stolen and guns with obliterated serial numbers, calls intercepted on wire taps during the investigation showed that members of the organization used fire arms to protect the marijuana grow houses. Agents also found approximately 17 electrical bypasses, which are used by marijuana cultivators to steal electricity. Electricity for grow houses

can cost several thousand dollars per month, per grow house. California approved a “medical” marijuana act in 1996 and the law went in effect the following day. There are an estimated 750,000-1,125,000 “medical” marijuana users in California. In cities like San Diego where issues have been closely examined, only 2% of those smoking marijuana under the guise of medicine have serious conditions such as AIDS, glaucoma and cancer. A full 98% are “treating” more minor conditions such as back and neck pain, anxiety, muscle spasms, insomnia, headaches and other insignificant conditions. But even more troubling is that 12% of users are under 21! In November 2010 voters in the state of Arizona passed Proposition 203, a “medical” marijuana proposal. As of January 27, 2012 the Department of Health has approved 19,364 patient applications. Of the 19,364 register users, 87.3% are treating chronic pain. Combined, the more serious conditions such as cancer, glaucoma and HIV, represent 7.9% of the program’s participants. 74.4% of registered users are male and 24.3% are 18-30 years of age.

Should medical majijuana be legalized? AS K E D O N M A I N ST R E E T

I believe so. I’m not necessarily for recreational use but medical… yeah.

I think it should be. People I know say marijuana helps them more than medications their doctors prescribe.

Jaime Dubey MILLBURY Yeah, I think so. Me, I like it because it relaxes me… it’s not really a drug.

Prescription drugs MASSACHUSETTS VOTERS MAY LEGALIZE MEDICAL MARIJUANA THIS NOVEMBER STEVEN KING

Jeremy Shulkin

The Auburn Plaza in Auburn, Maine, looks like an average shopping mall. It has a movie theater, dollar store, dental practice and Bed, Bath & Beyond. Every one of the stores has a large overhead sign, except for Remedy Compassion Center, tucked away in an unassuming corner next to Craft-Mania and Big Lots.

The space once housed a furniture store, with a big, open floor-plan and tall ceilings, but now it’s brightly lit and spotlessly clean like a pharmacy. The walls are a purplish-blue and a counter juts out into the middle of the spacious room with a cash register, pipes and a glass case that you’d typically see holding cookies, brownies or cake at a coffee shop. Somewhere in the building, likely behind an otherwise inconspicuous white door in the back corner, are containers filled with two dozen different strands of marijuana to cover the needs of hundreds of patients. Remedy Compassion Center is one of Maine’s eight medical marijuana dispensaries sanctioned by the state’s Department of Health and Human Services in 2010, and one of the first established in New England, a program that John Thiele, Maine’s Medical Marijuana, Mental Health and Substance Abuse Programs Manager estimates could serve as many as 6,000 residents suffering from cancer, glaucoma, HIV/AIDS, ALS, Crohn’s disease or debilitating symptoms like nausea, pain and seizures. (The state used to register each patient, but after the program reached 3,000 in September of last year, there were concerns that the state was getting too involved in the patient/doctor relationship, he says.) Remedy is run and owned by Tim Smale and his wife Jenna. Tim, a former competitive swimmer, uses medical cannibis to keep his migraines in check. Originally from Maine, he has a history with medical marijuana. Formerly an executive at Harborside Health Center in the San Francisco Bay area, he and his wife moved back to start Remedy when Maine legalized the drug for medical purposes.

if the Massachusetts legislation passes as written, it will allow up to 35 medical marijuana treatment centers, with some caveats: each county must have at least one, but no more than five. Individual growers won’t be allowed to cultivate their own unless their access to a nearby treatment center is hindered by finances, disability or transportation. Even if population ratios support it (Massachusetts’ population is 6.6 million), 35 is still an eye-popping number, and it’s just one factor leading to controversy over this this bill.

IGNORING THE ISSUE “I just want to help people understand it’s okay. It’s going to be fine,” he says. So far, so good, says Thiele, whose department regulates the state’s dispensaries that can have hundreds of patients, and 767 “caregivers” who can grow marijuana for no more than five patients, including themselves. “I think it’s because we only have eight dispensaries, and we watch them,” Thiele says about the lack of hassle from the United States government, which has continued to raid legalized medical marijuana grow operations in other states. “We’re keeping the number of dispensaries at a level where we’re able to keep an eye on things.” Maine’s legalization of medical marijuana came as the result of a ballot initiative similar to one that Massachusetts voters will choose “yes” or “no” on in November. Like Maine, the ballot would establish nonprofit medical marijuana centers and their affiliated grow houses for access by patients with prescription notes from their doctors. These programs would be regulated by the state’s Department of Public Health. Also like Maine, it does not require health insurance companies to cover the cost of the drug, and there are restrictions as to where the drug can be smoked, grown and sold. Dispensary patients pay sales and food taxes, and marijuana costs about $10 to $15 per gram (slightly cheaper than at West Coast dispensaries). Tinctures – liquid dropped under the tongue – and salves, each without the high that comes from smoking marijuana, also cost $15 to

$20 each. Tim Smale uses the cream on his sore joints. “It replaces the need for Advil,” he says. In Maine, Remedy and other dispensaries answered Requests for Proposals from the government, which limits one dispensary to each of Maine’s eight “public health zones,” antiquated boundaries established decades ago. Nonprofits whose RFPs were accepted had to pay a $15,000 fee and find licensing like a standard business, including permission to have a bakery and take-out because the dispensary sells marijuana in edible forms. The citizen petition Massachusetts residents may vote into law has similarities to Maine’s law. Like our neighbors to the north, Massachusetts’ medical marijuana law will allow for nonprofit centers to cultivate and sell marijuana to patients with a “bona fide” relationship with their prescriptionwriting doctor for similar ailments as listed in Maine’s registration rules (HIV/ AIDS, hepatitis C, ALS, Crohn’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, multiple sclerosis “and other conditions as determined in writing by a qualifying patient’s physician”). Applications to run a dispensary in Massachusetts will need to include the addresses of the center as well as the address of one location where marijuana will be cultivated, operating procedures that include security plans for facilities where marijuana will be stored, and the names of every officer and board member. While Maine, with it’s population of 1.3 million, has allowed only eight dispensaries (and no limit on caregivers),

It’s not much of a prediction to say that this ballot question will pass. Polls over the past decade indicate Massachusetts voters overwhelmingly support the legalization of medical marijuana—if not legalization of the drug, plain and simple—and those numbers buoy when put on the ballot on during a presidential election that will turn out younger voters. Since 2000, there have been nearly 60 nonbinding ballot questions polling various state representative and state senate districts with variations on the legalization theme. All of them, including 2008’s decriminalization law, have passed handily. Ones asking for the legalization of medical marijuana have all passed with 59 percent or higher approving. These are not numbers to ignore, no matter how much the state legislature has tried. “It’s only because the legislature didn’t do their job that we have to go to the ballot box,” says Bill Downing, a spokesman for the Massachusetts Cannabis Reform Coalition, the state chapter of the National Organization for the Reform of Marijuana Laws. It’s not as if law-makers didn’t have the chance. The past few legislative sessions have seen bills related to legalizing marijuana for medical use (and even

{ coverstory }

for legalizing it completely) languish in committee. “I always prefer that laws be written through the legislative process,” says Amherst Democrat Stanley Rosenberg, who sponsored a bill legalizing medical marijuana this term. While he says the bill in the legislature is similar to the bill that residents will vote on in November, there are some differences. For instance, the legislature’s version would only allow 15 to 18 dispensaries rather than 35 and, Rosenberg says, less flexibility for doctors to prescribe the drug. Despite these discrepancies, Rosenberg supports the ballot question. “We have a very specific public-health goal here,” he says, adding that the polls show people want legalized medical use, but they also “want a tightly regulated system.” Downing argues that no matter what the polls have shown, legislators refused to work on the bills because the word “marijuana” was in the titles. “It’s more important to [them] to not touch the marijuana issue than do what [they] were elected to do,” he says. If the bill passes in November legislators would have some authority to make changes (or even ignore it), though Rosenberg said those are difficult maneuvers especially because “the people” wrote and drafted the law. And that’s another part of the issue – who’s in charge. While the MassCann membership voted to support the ballot question, there’s still some behind-thescenes criticism of a bill that many in the legalize community have quibbles with. For one, the restrictions on personal cultivation; and two, clear distinctions between two groups of people: long time statewide reform activists and the professional organizers who drafted and fundraise. Mike Cann, a former MassCann president who now advocates independently via his “Two Hotheads” show on UNregular Radio, says he “really tried to bring two groups of people

together.” Some of these issues stem back from the 2008 decriminalization push, where some felt concessions were made allowing home-rule petitions that could recriminalize marijuana possession through increasing the fine. Still, Cann, who’s been advocating for legalization for the past decade, says these skirmishes haven’t taken away from the end goal. No one in the movement wants to see patients denied access, he says. “It’s going to pass and it’s going to pass big.” That’s the MO of the Committee for Compassionate Medicine, the group pushing the ballot question that, according to its 2011 campaign finance reports, has a $526,000 campaign chest. $525,000 of that money has come from Progressive Insurance CEO Peter Lewis, an amputee who treats his pain with marijuana. Lewis has personally spent $40 million to $60 million backing medical marijuana initiatives across the country since the 1980s, according to Forbes Magazine. “The people who have the money write the legislation,” Downing says. “He has goals beyond Massachusetts in mind. [These ballot questions] are written in a way they want to pass, and they want to get big numbers. They want to have slam dunks.” The proof is in the campaign spending; hundreds of thousands of the campaign’s dollars have gone to some of the state’s top signature gathering and consulting firms. Still, that doesn’t matter much to most legalize activists, many who say Massachusetts is about four years behind the marijuana legalization movement. Some of the initial quarrels, like the difficulty in growing one’s own marijuana for medicinal use, might also disappear, Downing says, as zoning laws and NIMBY-ism keep dispensaries from appearing. “We have both sides covered,” says Cann. “We’ve got so many activists, people on the street…This keeps getting bigger and bigger.”

who need it,” he says. “We want to show the nation we can safely provide medicinal cannabis products.”

DESPITE ASSURANCES…

Thiele says Maine received a similar letter when its program began, but timing makes all the difference. “We had already established our program. Our dispensaries were up and running at the time,” he remembers. Since then, there hasn’t been federal involvement. The small number of operators, and strict laws, he and Smale add, also help keep the government’s focus on busting facilities in other states with older, and perhaps looser, laws. “The fear is we’ll repeat the mistakes of California and other states,” Rosenberg

PUTTING DOCTORS IN THE MIDDLE

STEVEN KING

While Maine’s medical marijuana program has had about a year and a half to gain its footing, Massachusetts’ neighbor to the south, Rhode Island, has struggled. Though legalized through the state legislature in 2006, no dispensaries have been licensed, and plans to do so were set back after Governor Lincoln Chafee received a strongly worded letter from the state’s U.S. Attorney’s Office warning that grow operations and investors will still be susceptible to prosecution (though individual users wouldn’t be targeted).

says, or these dispensaries will allow a “backdoor approach to recreational use.” Federal government involvement, rather than popular opinion, seems to be the last hurdle proponents need to tackle. “The Massachusetts initiative will be the safest medical marijuana law in the country, based on the best practices of 17 other states and the District of Columbia,” reads a statement from the Committee for Compassionate Medicine. “The hallmark of the initiative is state regulation. It requires that doctors writing recommendations have a bona fide relationship with their patients and that the state verifies all recommendations.”

Downing says fears about government involvement are overblown in this case. “This is a game the federal government can only play for so long,” he says. “They don’t have the resources to police medical marijuana states across the nation,” especially now that over one-third of the states have some kind of program. “Government is not targeting caregivers … with whom a patient is acquainted.” On July 9, employees at Harborside Health Center, one of the largest dispensaries in the country, found seizure notices on its two buildings courtesy of California’s U.S. attorney, Melinda Haag, who wrote that her office would target large dispensaries, a sentiment U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder agreed with. Contrary to their fears, Tim Smale says legalized medical marijuana has made Maine safer. The Remedy Compassion Center has brought a security guard and cameras to the Auburn Plaza and the drugs have to be produced cleanly since they’re going into the bodies of people with already compromised immune systems. “We’re taking pot sales off the street and putting it into the hands of patients

Now in graduate school in Worcester, Pat still fights his symptoms. He takes 14 pills a day and he’s prescribed Percocet for the pain when the Crohn’s flairs up. Percocet, however, can add to the nausea, and doesn’t do much for appetites. In the past month, he’s dropped 25 pounds. “What’s nice about using marijuana for it is the nausea,” he says. “It dulls the pain; it really slows your system down. It gives you your appetite back. It kinda calms down your intestines.” He uses it irregularly, mostly because the disease flairs up every few weeks and because of concerns that potential employers would make a drug test a condition of employment. During one of his latest fits of pain he wrote a letter to Senator Scott Brown asking him to support legalizing medical marijuana. “In that instance it would’ve been really nice to smoke some herb,” he says of his last bout. At this point, it’s not shocking to hear that some patients respond to marijuana as a salve for pain or nausea, but what

{ coverstory } does the medical community think about a legal way to prescribe it? Locally, prominent doctors and medical groups have come out against the ballot question. Earlier this year the Worcester District Medical Society adopted the resolutions passed at the Massachusetts Medical Society meeting in May that laid out a nuanced position against this iteration of legalized marijuana for medicinal use. Before resolving to oppose the ballot question, the group essentially asked that marijuana be reclassiďŹ ed by the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration “so that it’s potential medicinal use by humans may be further studied and potentially regulatedâ€? and that the society supports “the development of nonsmoked, reliable delivery systems for cannabis-derived and cannabinoid medications.â€? Until that time, however, they added the Massachusetts Medical Society should “educate the residents of the Commonwealth that there is insufďŹ cient scientiďŹ c information about the safety of marijuana when used for ‘medicinal’ purposes.â€? “We’re hoping that cooler heads will prevail,â€? says Jay Broadhurst, chair of the Worcester District Medical Society public health committee and assistant professor of the Department of Family Medicine and Community Health at the University of Massachusetts Medical School, about Massachusetts voters’ trends with marijuana ballot questions. Broadhurst’s main complaints come from the medical community’s lack of study of the drug. For example, there’s nothing to stop him, in conďŹ dentiality, from talking to a patient of his about using marijuana as a pain reliever or

appetite enhancer, but he says he can’t in good faith recommend it because he doesn’t have information on it like he does with Food and Drug Administration approved drugs. “I cannot give you information about its safety or scientiďŹ c information about its effectiveness,â€? he says. “How are you, as a physician, to make any responsible decision about dosing?â€? Though Tim Smale insists that having nonproďŹ t medical centers would provide the best patient care when it comes to medical marijuana (a term Broadhurst calls a “gross misrepresentationâ€?), Broadhurst disagrees. “If this stuff is medicine, we’ve already got entities that create medicine. They’re called pharmaceutical companies. We’ve already got entities that dispense medicine. They’re called pharmacies.â€? As for the bill itself, he’s not thrilled with the language, because he says it

fails to adequately restrict the amount of marijuana that can be prescribed and for what reasons. “Medically, this makes no sense at all,â€? he says. “There is no reason to put physicians in the middle of this thingâ€? until it’s treated as an FDA approved (or rejected) drug. Recently, calls from the scientiďŹ c community have taken the government to task for limiting experiments on validating or refuting the medicinal impacts of marijuana. A University of California - San Diego study, notably partially funded by the US Department of Health and Human Services and published in the Open Neurology Journal this summer, takes the government to task for harshly classifying marijuana as a Schedule I drug, which makes it hard to obtain it for medical tests. “As these therapeutic potentials are

outlets already available to them, from prescription drugs to working with hospice and other pain-management programs. “I would prefer grappling with problems related to prescription opioids than take on the new problem of marijuana prescription,� he says, when asked if it’s a suitable replacement for highly addictive pain medication. “That’s the reason kids think pills are safe and heroin’s dangerous,� Broadhurst says when asked if more patients will be comfortable broaching the subject of marijuana with him if legalized, “because a doctor prescribes them.� At the policy level, Hirsh says the new law would “force public health departments to be more aggressive and monitor whether medical marijuana laws increase the use of marijuana� and if it leads to an increase in fatalities or “an extra burden on the police department.� For Broadhurst, it’s just an end around to a bigger question: legalization. “That’s a very different discussion,� he says. He cites preliminary data about the drug’s effects on the development of the adolescent brain but adds, “I’m from Worcester. People in Worcester tend to have something of a libertarian streak. If we want to have a debate about

legalizing marijuana, let’s have it but let’s not do it through the backdoor and put me, as a physician, in the middle of it.â€? Still, Tim Smale believes Maine has gone about the legalization in the right way: keeping control in the hands of a nonproďŹ t, requiring doctor-patient relationships and offering smoke-free and high-free alternatives. (For many, it’s not all about smoking. Pat says he’d like to come across marijuana in pill form.) In a lot of ways, with the mixture of state and federal laws the way they are, no one wins. Those against legalizing marijuana in any form are slowly losing as popular opinion chips away at prohibition. Care providers lose because there’s no guarantee that their facility won’t be raided by the feds. Doctors lose because the federal government still refuses to take the exploration of the drug’s medicinal properties seriously, and patients still face stigmatization and access issues. Voting yes or no in November on the ballot question won’t change much of this, but it’ll be another reminder to politicians that this is one uncomfortable topic that they can’t avoid forever.

Jazz group Trio Tutta celebrate women composers Taylor Nunez

Nick’s Bar & Restaurant in Worcester is not foreign land to local musicians. Owner Nicole Watson’s selection of creative acts draws all sorts of music lovers to the scene which is why, to

no surprise, all-female jazz group Trio Tutta was welcomed to perform at the neighborhood venue. Setting this dynamic group apart from other jazz trios, Trio Tutta performs music from only female composers and performers, pledging their gratitude to the women who paved the way for them.

Trio Tutta formed after pianist Pamela Hines subbed for the Jazz Sisters, led by Berklee College of Music alumna Tal Shalom-Kobi. Hines recalls the immediate musical chemistry the two had together, and the two women had similar goals when it came to their jazz music aspirations. The two, along with drummer Miki Matzuki, began rehearsing and performing gigs together. Their name originated from the Italian word “Tutti” PHOTO SUBMITTED meaning whole. “I knew ‘tutti’ was the correct term but did not want people to think it was a classical trio so we put a jazz twist on the word and called it ‘tutta,’” explains Hines. The three members of the trio hail from different countries so their name brings emphasis that, despite the fact they differ in their roots, their music brings them together to create something full and whole. As Hines, Kobi and Matzuki united as one, they discovered the joy in performing the pioneers of female composing. For Kobi, who grew up in Israel, female composers were few; and as a musician, she developed a strong admiration for women who broke the mold. “At the time I grew up in Israel, there weren’t many female jazz musicians in the scene. I felt I needed to prove myself as a competent player and do it in a predominantly male-oriented environment. It helped tremendously to know older women who ‘made it’ in spite of the obstacles,” explains Kobi.

The performance Trio Tutta presents to the audience is not just a collection of songs played one after the other, but a history lesson as well. In between pieces, the jazz group speaks a bit about the artist whose music they are performing and gives background about the musician. “We’ve been running our program a little over a year and get very enthusiastic reactions from our listeners who find the inclusion of historical information for each musician to be very valuable and interesting,” Kobi says. The audience also interacts with the trio, often recommending female composers to add to the list. As Hines recalled a performance at Ryle’s Jazz Club in Cambridge, “A British couple was in the audience at Ryle’s in May and asked if we knew Hazel Scott. This started me on the journey of researching her life.” The Trio Tutta plan on adding a blues tune of Scott’s and researching other female composers to add to the mix, such as Mary Lou Williams and Jessica Williams. Even deeper than their common bond in appreciation of female composers, Trio Tutta share their utter joy in performing jazz music. “There is no equivalent to live performing...Jazz piano has been one of the very few things in my life where I go to it no matter what,” says Hines. Kobi echoed Hines’s sentiments in the happiness that performing brings, and added how jazz is particularly interesting to play to an audience. “Because the genre features a lot of improvised sections and onstage interaction amongst the musicians, there is also a back and forth which occurs with the audience. Sharing the music with a live audience influences the playing and allows the musicians to adopt the music to the listener in real time.” To not only to hear jazz music, but also to engage with a trio and brush up on some composers, don’t miss Trio Tutta’s tribute to female jazz performers and composers at Nick’s Bar & Restaurant located at 124 Millbury St. in Worcester, on Saturday, July 28, at 8:30 p.m., featuring special-guest vocalist Suzanne Cabot. Also, be sure to pick up their 2010 debut album, “Spectrum.” For more information, visit talmusicworld. com/TrioTutta.htm.

It’s a drag in Worcester

Alicia Lazzaro

T

he stage is dimly lit; there is smoke and flashing lights. “Because You Loved Me” by Celine Dion starts and the crowd goes wild in anticipation of singing along to every single word. Out walks the performer, back turned, donned head to toe in full Celine fashion getup, heavy on the glitter. She starts lip syncing and when she turns around, it’s clear that no woman could ever be this fabulous. This Celine Dion impersonator is actually a man. The drag scene in Worcester is small, but tight knit, centered out of Club Remix on Water Street. Every Sunday night is drag night with DJ Mike Electra, where about 10 of the bravest men in Worcester put their best face forward and perform to hit songs from artists like Shakira, Cher and, of course, Celine Dion. The majority of the performances are lip synced, as the girls focus more on their outfits and choreography. Some performers focus more on impersonation, learning every detail of their famous counterpart and emulating it with their own small twists. Others highlight the dancing and stage presence, swaying the crowd to hold out more one dollar bills. No matter their performance, they can all give us ladies a lesson or two on how to walk in heels. All of the performers earn a gratuity from the club itself, as they don’t work for the club, but rather perform for it, and earn tips from the crowd. Hostess Bootz, 22, recalled something that fellow hostess Lady Sabrina once said: “She told me that when people tip you, it’s because they respect you.” Both Bootz and Lady

Sabrina, 42, along with performer Sue Nami, 27, gushed over the support they have received from not only customers, but from their families as well. “My first time performing was at Mount Holyoke. There were 875 people in the audience, and they treated us like we were celebrities. They had security, and it felt like I was like Lady Gaga.” Nami has been doing drag for two years, starting from a Halloween joke that never quite ended. “I like to perform; it gives me a sense of empowerment when I dress like this. But, this all comes off, and I am a man at the end of the day,” says Nami, an outreach coordinator. The “undisputed Queen of Worcester,” hostess Lady Sabrina is the senior drag queen in Worcester, as she has been doing drag for 26 years and has seen the evolution of the art over the years. “Drag has become the icon that it is supposed to be; we have gone from being a joke to being actual performers,” said Sabrina. “This is more a performance art for me, like a Mrs. Doubtfire. But, it’s absolutely a job; you have to have professionalism about it. You can’t walk onto stage drunk; you have to conduct yourself in a way to be respected.” Before all of the glitz, glam and makeup come on at night, Lady Sabrina is a therapist in his daily life. “Honestly, [drag] has enhanced my life because of the fact that it has helped me with public speaking and giving me a certain level of confidence in myself, where it extends past the job,” he says. In the past, hostess Bootz said she would never do drag, but four years ago at the young age of 18, she started. At

16, during a gay pride event in Worcester, Bootz saw her very first drag queen and “thought it was the most amazing thing ever. It was this artistic view of dressing up as the opposite sex and making it so extravagant and not caring what people say.” As for his own sexual and gender identity, like most of the other drag queens, he identifies as gay and says to “call me he, call me she, I don’t care! I am me. I like to do my own thing.” Remix has a reputation in Worcester as being a gay club, but the crowd that comes to the drag show is far from strictly LGBTQ. “Of course people assume that this is a gay club, but we never want to just say it’s a gay club because it’s a business and you don’t want to only go toward one type of customer; you won’t make business,” says Bootz. “We don’t deal with drama; girls can come here and don’t have to deal with men all over them.” The Miss Gay Worcester Pageant and Gay Pride are both in September at Club Remix, both are big events for the drag community. Curious? Head on down to Club Remix for drag every Sunday night at 105 Water St. Worcester, 508-756-2227, remixworcester.com.

Hanover goes blonde for the Summer Youth Program Shalyn Hopley

Every summer, the Hanover Theatre experiences a bit of a slump; fewer shows tour and come to Worcester. But rather than just accepting the slowdown and taking a bit of a break, the Hanover back in 2009 decided to use this opportunity to open up the theater to students by creating its Youth Summer Program. For three weeks, students attend classes in dance, music and drama, all while rehearsing for a final performance at the end of the program. The Hanover’s Director of Operations and Education Meghan Patrick, who has been working closely with the Youth Summer Program since its inception and is currently acting as the drama director for the program, loves working with the kids. “We’re fortunate enough to be able to block off July for the program,” she says.

The program accepts about 45 students between the ages of 12 and 18 each year. “We really look for students who want to excel in the world of drama and the arts,” says Patrick. This year, 43 students are working on “Legally Blonde: The Musical,” with shows scheduled for Saturday, July 28, at 2 p.m. and 7 p.m. and Sunday, July 29, at 2 p.m. Tickets cost $10. Patrick chose “Legally Blonde” after it came to the Hanover a few years ago. “As I was leaving the show, I was thinking we have to do it once it becomes available [for the summer program],” says Patrick. “Legally Blonde” is the story of Elle Woods who heads to Harvard Law School chasing after the man who dumped her and ends up learning more about herself and achieving her dreams along the way. “It is a really great message for the kids…that you can achieve your dreams no matter what others may think about you” says Patrick. The musical is modern and upbeat, making it an engaging show for the students and an entertaining show for the audience. Patrick is excited for the kids to show everyone what they have done in the past few weeks. Students come into the program with the script and music for the show but without their specific roles. The first day is filled by auditions, with roles being announced that evening. As Patrick

explains, these students are doing something that professionals usually don’t even do. The students have exactly three weeks to put on a performance, having to memorize lines, music, choreography and blocking all at the same time. When a professional theater group puts on a show, the roles are cast before the show begins to rehearse, allowing the actors a period of time to memorize lines and practice the music without the stress of daily rehearsal. Lucas Arndt and Ciara Bowser have both been in the summer program for two years and are working hard in their respective roles of Warner Huntington III and Vivienne Kensington. Each is enjoying the chance to make new friends and the overall experience. “You can’t really go anywhere else in Worcester and have the same experience,” says Arndt, who encourages students of all skill levels to try the program and sign up quick when next summer’s program opens up. The program affords students a unique opportunity to utilize professional quality equipment and resources. “From the lights to the stage…the people who work on touring Broadway shows are the people who work on this,” says Hanover Theatre’s Rocco Paraderio. Participants in the program get to work with professional directors from the local area. Dance director Jennifer Agbay is the director of Ballet Arts Worcester; music director Kallin Johnson is music director at Notre Dame Academy and a faculty member of the music department at Clark University. Even more exciting for the students is the chance to perform on “the big stage.” “The students can use the resources we have that many of them won’t have access to in school drama departments,” says Patrick. Aside from opening up the theater to provide students with the unique experience of performing on a professional stage, The Hanover Theatre also gave scholarships to seven of these students so they could participate in the program and perform. As much as the program is about getting to a performance, for Patrick, it is also about what the kids get out of the program. “There are some kids that come in very shy and unsure of themselves and by the end of the three weeks, they really come into their own and realize their potential,” says Patrick. Bowser reaffirmed Patrick’s feelings, saying “What you get from this program is confidence. If you can perform at the Hanover, you can perform at your school, you can perform anywhere.” For more information on the program or to purchase tickets to either “Legally Blonde” performance, visit thehanovertheatre.org.

Hidden but worth finding Marc Cochon

Located in a strip mall set back from Shrewsbury Street, Surya Indian Cuisine can be tricky to find. Surya’s two high-ceilinged dining rooms are brightly lit and abundantly decorated with a cheerful combination of shiny Indian artwork and beer signs. A sizable fraction of the customers appear to be of South Asian heritage — a good sign.

A flat-screen TV looms over the main room, showing Bollywood videos. The soundtrack, taken alone, conveys a certain authentic effect to the experience, but if you’re as easily distracted as this reviewer, you might want to sit so that the screen is

STEVEN KING

out of viewing range. The staff seems to enjoy it, though, as do customers awaiting takeout orders. Surya’s lengthy menu contains many of the northern Indian specialties you’d expect. The chicken kabob appetizer, though, is a surprise. Instead of the anticipated tandoori-roasted chicken with sautéed vegetables, the dish is more like a Chinese stir-fry, with large chunks of tender chicken breast, onions and potatoes in a sweet, spicy, almost barbecue-y tomato sauce. Unexpected but tasty. Surya offers grilled breads by day and tandoor-baked breads in the evening. Keema nan is a rich and buttery treat, generously stuffed with a satisfying mixture of ground lamb, onions and spices. It’s wonderful for sopping up sauces but more than interesting enough to stand on its own. Our waitress asks about the level of spice we want in our dishes, and delivers on the promises. Lamb vindaloo, a classic dish with Portuguese influences, is properly hot and vinegary. The meaty chunks of lamb could be a bit tenderer, but they’re flavorful and complemented

by perfectly-cooked potatoes in the sharp, red sauce. Chicken chili features large pieces of breast meat with onions and green chilis in another richly flavored tomato-based sauce. At some Indian restaurants, the sauces are difficult to distinguish from one another, but not at Surya — each sauce has a distinct signature of spices and herbs. Dal tarka is rich and comforting, made from black lentils and a complex but subtle array of flavors, and it nicely complements the perfectly cooked basmati rice. Along with some raita — yogurt with

cucumber, tomato and mint — these dishes add soothing balance to the otherwise highly flavored main courses. Surya has full bar service, including Indian beers and a brief but well-chosen wine list. We’re happy to see that no bottle of wine is more than $20, and impressed to learn that each is available by the glass for less than $6. Both a fruity Shiraz and a new-world Pinot Noir can stand up to the spices without clashing. Surya is a solid value. The prices are not low — most main dishes are in the $14-$15 range — but servings are very generous, just right for sharing among three or four people; plan on spending about $25 or $30 per person, including drinks and a tip. Service is informal but friendly and attentive. All in all, Surya isn’t the most intimate or romantic dining spot Shrewsbury Street has to offer. It is, however, a cheerful and reliable venue, well worth seeking out when you’re in the mood to enjoy generous portions of full-flavored and distinctive Indian food.

Raising a glass to wine everywhere

South of the Border

Q

Al Vuona

uite often people ask: where can the best wine values be found? And quite often my response is, south of the border. To be more precise, I’m talking about Chile and Argentina. South American wines first began appearing in U.S. wine shops in the early 1990s, and they quickly gained a reputation for solid value. For years now, both Chile and Argentina have focused on increasing the quality of their wines without losing sight of price. Consequently the two have made an impact on the world market. Here are some things to consider. First, the Argentine wine industry is the fifth largest in the world. Mendoza is the country’s most important wine region and I think it’s fair to say that Malbec has become the signature varietal of the region. The name most commonly associated with this rise in popularity is Nicolas Catena. His wines truly define the culture and region with quality being the benchmark. Chile is the world’s ninth largest producer and, like Argentina, has focused on producing wine of high quality and value. Cabernet, Merlot and Carmenere are the predominate varietals here. Aurelio Montes is the man who has been instrumental in moving the industry forward. Like Catena, Montes wines are highly regarded. In addition, both countries are also producing terrific whites that again spell quality and value. In Argentina, the Torrontes is an aromatic white with moderate acidity and smooth texture. In Chile, Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc have performed very well. If you’re looking for imported wine that delivers terrific quality at very affordable prices then wines from Argentina and Chile are a good OF THE WEEK place to start. You’ll find wonderful reds and William Hill, whites from $10 to $30. Of course both countries Chardonnay 2010, produce premium wines that sell for much more, California, about $20 but you can never go wrong by traveling south of the border.

Massachusetts Realtor Market Index and Price Index up again in June WALTHAM, Mass. – The Massachusetts Association of Realtors (MAR) announced on July 18 that both the Realtor Market Index (RMI) and the Realtor Price Index (RPI) continue to be up compared to the year before. While short sales and foreclosures continue to have a larger-thannormal presence in the market, the majority of Realtors who work with these types of sales reported no change in this part of their business compared to last year. “Increased buying and selling activity this spring continued to keep confidence up in June and it should carry on through the summer,” said 2012 MAR President Trisha McCarthy, broker at Keller Williams Realty in Newburyport. “Recent news that the market has ‘hit bottom’ should also help

keep the market moving in a positive direction.” In June 2012, the Realtor Market Index was 59.30, which was up 103 percent from the June 2011 score of 29.17. This is the second highest point the index has reached since the association has been tracking the data and 11th straight month of year-over-year increases. On a month-to-month basis, the June RMI was down 1.8 percent from the 60.38 score in May 2012. Measured on a 100point scale, a score of 50 is the midpoint between a “strong” (100 points) and a “weak” (0 points) market condition. The Realtor Price Index was 60.06 in June, which was up 57 percent from the June 2011 RPI of 38.30. This is the second highest point reached on the RPI scale since the data has been tracked and

first time that the RPI has reached the 60-point mark in two consecutive months. On a month-to-month basis, the RPI was down 3.7 percent from the May 2012 RPI of 62.38. In June 2012, Realtor members were asked whether short sales and foreclosures were currently part of their business. Of those who answered yes, 17 percent responded that compared to a year ago the amount of their short sale business was either somewhat less (14 percent) or significantly less (3 percent). Forty-eight percent of respondents reported no change from last year, while 35 percent responded that their business was somewhat greater (32 percent) or significantly greater (3 percent) compared to last year. -Submitted Article

Kyle Jarvenpaa, 24, is the owner of a small street-wear clothing company, Monogram Apparel. The brand started out of his parents’ house in Orange, and his old bedroom is the current “warehouse” of the brand, fixed with a packaging table, sewing machine and bundles of clothing. Also a musician, Jarvenpaa finds inspiration from music and art to spark ideas for his clothing line. The three-year anniversary of the brand is quickly approaching, and Worcester Mag caught up with him to discuss clothes, music and all things Monogram Apparel. How did you first become involved in fashion design? It kind of just fell into

place. For a long time I was doing a lot of the T-shirt artwork for the band I was playing in. I had a lot of extra ideas lying around that would never get used by the band so I decided to see if people even liked my ideas. I knew I didn’t want to just start another clothing company with random designs on shirts; it seems most of them that pop up are like that. I had my first run of designs made up and ready to start showing people in early 2010. I have designed most of it up to this point aside from a few pieces that featured art from Tim Min out of Germany, a very successful designer for bands worldwide. The brand itself is a “street wear” brand that you won’t find in large retail chain locations. We are out to push a positive message and atmosphere and hope that the people who follow us and support the ideas do that as well. To date we’ve done tees, tank tops, hats, shorts, zip-up and pull-over hoodies, windbreaker jackets, button-down plaids, and beanies. I’m hoping to get into accessories soon, do more hats and start a whole line focused on women’s fit items.

What does the motto “Create Yourself” mean? “Create Yourself” is a saying

that’s widely known by a number of people; it’s nothing original on my part, but I decided to take the two words and run with them for my theme of the brand. I’ve always lived in such a way where if there is something I want to achieve in my life I WILL make it happen. It’s not worth being negative about anything really, doesn’t get you anywhere does it? I feel like if you can be positive about life and your passions and even other people’s passions and help people out, you’ll eventually accomplish what you’ve set out to do. I was 13 years old when I started playing guitar in bands with friends and thinking we were going to be rock stars someday. With nothing but focus, drive and making the right choices over time, when I graduated high school at 17, I left for my first east coast tour that summer with the band I was in at the time. In that four year period, I did everything in my power to make what I wanted to happen come true. Shortly after that tour when I turned 18, we were picked up by a small indie label that put out a full-length album for us that was carried in stores like Hot Topic throughout the northeast United States. That was a huge accomplishment for all of us in that band; we made our dream come true. Essentially we had created ourselves into what we saw as

successful musicians. It relates to “Steer Your Own Path,” in the sense that we did just that — we steered our own path for ourselves, we didn’t sit back while someone else did all the work, and we did what we had to do to get where we wanted. This applies to much more than just music; it can be used for anyone with anything at all. The compass logo was created out of the “Steer Your Own Path” compass T-shirt that Tim Min came up with for me when we were collaborating ideas for images that went with the mottos. It stuck and it fits very well with the saying and created a recognizable logo for itself. You’ll see it used more in the future.

Are you still with a band? When Anomia

ended, we did our last tour with our friends in Widow Sunday. Adam Cutler played guitar in that band but has since left to pursue his art career, and I was asked to step in and respectfully take Adam’s place on guitar for Widow Sunday, so I have!

What inspires you as an artist of music and a fashion designer? Inspiration

comes from so many different things for both of those creative outlets. As far as music goes, I naturally get inspiration from other music around me, as well as from friends. Life in general plays a huge factor. With the clothing line, my art up to this point has been inspired by current fashion culture within the demographic I push to. Being in the music scene, a lot of inspiration for art has come from that culture, with my beginnings of this brand starting in the same scene. Most recently we have partnered up with a new store in the Northbridge area called The Coastal Theory. It’s in a new location carrying a lot of both

to

men’s and women’s items of multiple different styles of clothing; it’s our first retail support and currently has four different designs shelved in stock. It’s very exciting! Right now, we’re focusing on the July/August line of re-release items. We’ll be printing five old designs in all new color schemes. These are to replenish stock while we get the fall line ready for release at our tent at Worcester’s stART festival in September. The fall line will be the first collection fully designed by Adam as well as a limited run collectable Halloween release we’re scheming up for October. Now that we have Adam and my friend Jeff Kennedy, our new promotional and photography person, Monogram will be featuring a lot of new ideas from special packaging and free items with every order to limited special-edition poster prints of the shirt art. We want to make this brand lasting with much more than just the idea of putting on a shirt every day. January 2013 marks three years I’ve been at this and at that point I hope to have established who we are as a brand and take on the next three years with even higher expectations. Maybe even open our very own retail location somewhere at some point. It’s my next vision. Learn more about Monogram Apparel at monogramapparel.com or look them up on facebook.
