In Oxford, state police from the Sturbridge-based Troop C responded to a report of a motor vehicle crash at approximately 6:30 p.m. April 23. The accident took place in the southbound lane of Route 395, just north of exit five. Preliminary investigation by State Trooper Grace Bray indicates that the accident involved a 1984 Oldsmobile Cutlass, which was being operated by Jose Rivera, 79, of Worcester. According to police reports, the Oldsmobile allegedly lost control, went off the right side of the roadway prior to the exit ramp, and struck several trees. Rivera sustained serious injuries and was transported to UMass Medical Center. A seven-year-old juvenile male, whose name police withheld, was riding as a passenger in the Oldsmobile and sustained serious injuries. He was declared deceased at the scene. The juvenile was wearing a seat belt, police said. The Oxford crash remains under investigation with the assistance of the State Police Collision Analysis and Reconstruction Section and the State Police Crime Scene Services Section. The Oxford Police Department, Fire Department and MassHighway assisted state troopers at the scene. Additionally, police reported that the right lane of 395 south and the ramp for exit five were closed for approximately three hours as a result of the investigation. In Worcester, state police received report of another accident on Route 290 west at 7:04 p.m. the same day. Troopers assigned to the police barracks in Holden responded to the report. Preliminary investigation by state trooper David Fleming indicates that a 2002 Ford Explorer operated by Thompson was traveling west in the left lane on Route 290 in Worcester, east of Exit 10. The vehicle allegedly lost control, veered into the right lane and rolled over, coming to rest on the driver’s side. In the course of those events, the 2002 Ford struck a 2003 Toyota pick- up truck being operated by Sean Lavoie, 34, of Southbridge and also came into contact with a 2006 Ford Explorer, operated Douglas Guthrie, 44, of West Hartford, Conn. Thompson sustained serious injuries and was pronounced dead at the scene. Lavoie sustained minor injuries and was transported to St. Vincent’s Hospital. Guthrie was uninjured. According to police, the crash remains under investigation with the assistance of the State Police Collision Analysis and Reconstruction Section and the State Police Crime Scene Services Section. The Worcester Fire Department, EMS and MassHighway assisted troopers at the scene. Due to the investigation, the right two lanes of Route 290 were closed for approximately three hours. Junior police academy set to begin in June BY PATRICK SKAHILL TIMES STAFF WRITER WEBSTER — From constitutional law to mock drills in defense tactics and patrol routines, Webster youths interested in pursuing a career in law enforcement can get a taste of what a week in the life of a police cadet is like during the Webster Police Department’s second annual Junior Police Academy this summer. Running from Monday, June 23, to Friday, June 27, the weeklong course attracted more than a dozen cadets last year. This summer, according to Sgt. Mike Shaw, officers are hoping approximately 30 cadets turn out. Students signing up for the program, which is open to teens aged 14 to 19 years old, “can expect a police academy that any officer would attend condensed into a week,” said Steve Cacciapouti, one of the officers running the program. Starting every day at 7:30 a.m., cadets will be put through the paces, undergoing inspections, drilling, morning physical fitness exercises and defense training. Included in the defense tactics are basic techniques any police officer would know including simple hands-on techniques, strike moves, and handcuffing. Cadets will also be challenged mentally, spending classroom time learning about everything from constitutional and criminal law to the history of the Webster Police Department and law enforcement in America. During the final day, cadets will engage in “real world” scenarios where officers and volunteers take the cadets out into the field and do role-playing activities. Domestic situations along with traffic stops are just a few of the things cadets will experience. While an interest in law enforcement certainly attracts a large number of kids to the program, both Cacciapouti and Shaw said all are welcome to sign up and everyone, no matter what their background, can benefit from the program. The Junior Police Academy “gives [the cadets] a new outlook on what police officers do,” Shaw said. “It instills discipline in the kids and at the same time confidence ... it gets them to work together as a team.” According to Cacciapouti, the idea for a junior police academy first arose several years ago. “It was always something we wanted to do for the kids and the community,” he said. Unfortunately, support for the project was lacking and the idea was unable to be actualized. Last year, however, Police Chief Timothy Bent got wind of the thought, and encouraged the officers to piece together a program for local youths that summer. Fourteen teenagers signed up and 13 finished the program. “The kids absolutely loved it,” Cacciapouti said. “They were just enthralled.” Parents are also extremely satisfied with the academy, he added, saying he ran into one of last year’s mothers who said she was “amazed” at what the week did for her daughter’s disciplinary problems and general demeanor at home. Perhaps most importantly, however, the Junior Police Academy teaches cadets from all walks of life how to work together as a team. “Kids from all different kinds of social backgrounds show up,” Shaw said. “I think they were surprised at some of the friendships they made ... I like to liken it to the Breakfast Club,” he joked. The deadline for applications to the Junior Police Academy is Friday, May 16. Applications may be picked up at the Bartlett Jr./Sr. High School guidance office or the Webster Police Department.

Last year, 212 people joined in removing a remarkable eight tons of trash from the French River and roadsides around Webster. Organized by the Webster Recycling Commission, this year’s event will once again be run in conjunction with Keep America Beautiful Inc.’s nationwide “Great American Cleanup” campaign — the nation’s largest community improvement program, which runs annually from March 1 through May 31, and involves an estimated 2.8 million volunteers and attendees. “The Great American Cleanup is a powerful catalyst for changing behavior and educating people on the importance of taking care of their communities through volunteer participation,” said Webster Recycling Commission Chairman Yale Hirshberg. “It is the hope of the Recycling Commission that the cleanup will encourage people to develop a commitment to maintain their environment year-round.” After registering, volunteers will be given free trash bags and latex gloves and sent out to an area around town to clean. Participants will also be entered in a raffle drawing for various prizes held at the end of the day. Prizes include cash, gift certificates to area businesses, and redeemable coupons for free items at area coffee shops. “We would like to reward our participants for volunteering their time and energy for the good of the community,” Hirshberg said. Volunteers will additionally receive free Tshirts courtesy of Pete’s Tire. According to Hirshberg, Pratt Trucking will provide trucks and dumpsters to collect the refuse the day of the event. Since Saturday’s cleanup is targeted at municipal grounds and public recreation spots, residents will not be allowed to bring items from home to dump. “This is the day to clean the sides of our streets, parks, and waterways, not your cellar and garage,” Hirshberg stressed. “Refrigerators, air conditioners, televisions, computers, paints or any liquids will not be accepted.” Following Saturday’s clean up, the Department of Public Works, under the direction of Dennis Westgate, will pick up collected trash at designated roadside areas for registered participants Monday, May 5. Because of this, residents are welcome to cleanup anytime during the weekend or can bring their trash bags to Town Hall during the registration hours, Hirshberg said. The commission also invites residents to request a cleanup of any heavily littered areas they may have noticed around town. “Workers may clean alone in their own roadside areas or organize a group to cover a larger section of town,” Hirshberg said,” adding the Recycling Commission will additionally offer participants the opportunity to drop off unwanted cell phones, ink jet and laser printer cartridges for recycling as well as any mercury containing products such as thermometers and thermostats. NiCad, button and lithium batteries will also be accepted. Compost recycling bins are available for purchase at the DPW office on Cudworth Road. Containers for cell phones are located at Shaw’s and Price Chopper exit lobbies and collection envelopes located at the Chester C. Corbin Public Library and the Webster Town Clerk’s office. As volunteers tidy up the streets and streams around town on Saturday, the Killdeer Island Club will be busy hosting their own Earth Day event — a Computer and Electronics Removal and Recycling Day. From 9 a.m. to 3 p.m., Saturday May 3, residents will be allowed to bring their monitors, televisions, miscellaneous electronics, computer parts and all appliances for one day only to the club at 191 Killdeer Island Rd. Recycling devices such as CRTs will prevent them from becoming hazardous waste. CRTs may contain several pounds of lead, which is a toxic substance. When CRTs are broken or destroyed, such as when placed in landfills or incinerators, they release lead into the environment. When recycled, TVs and computer monitors can be used as a source of lead, as well as precious metal found in circuit boards, power supplies and the like. Surrounding towns are welcome to take part in both events. “The commission urges all residents to take part in this community event to make Webster look its best as the natural beauty of spring unfolds,” Hirshberg said. Registration for the event will be held Saturday morning from 9 a.m. until noon in front of Webster Town Hall. All volunteers are welcome.

Sitkowski School, Webster. BY PATRICK SKAHILL TIMES STAFF WRITER DUDLEY — Approximately 60 residents turned out for the first annual “Walk-a-Thon” for Nick Dubois, a Shepherd Hill student who died tragically in a car accident last year. All told, the event combined with donations raised nearly $2,000 in scholarship money, $1,500 of which will be distributed in equal amounts to provide scholarships to two Shepherd Hill students and one Bay Path Regional Vocational Technical High School student. An additional $415 was left over for next year’s walk, said Debi Dubois, Nick’s mother. While most people walked intermittently throughout the day, Tim Johnson, father of Nick’s best friend Matt, wouldn’t quit, said Debi happily. All told, Johnson circled the Shepherd Hill track 40 times, the equivalent of nearly 10 miles. “The Dubois-Holleran Family greatly appreciates everyone who joined us in celebrating Nick’s life,” Debi said. “To know Nick had that kind of impact on people during his time on this earth ... it makes me wonder what other great things he could have accomplished.” Patrick Skahill may be reached at (508) 909-4129, or by e-mail at pskahill@stonebridgepress.com.

Auburn. Students demonstrated some of what they learned at the ceremony such as their “forms” and how to break a piece of wood. It was an impressive show by students of OMS who only had six lessons to prepare for graduation. Each graduating student received a new Blue-White belt and was extended a special offer to continue lessons. Family and friends enjoyed watching how the students learned so much in just six weeks of lessons. According to Mr. McCoy the school teaches students to be “responsible and make the right choices” when confronted with bullies and other trials of everyday life. Respect plays a major role in karate class as students are always expected to respond respectfully and confidently to their instructors. Mr. McCoy believes that a positive, respectful attitude increases a child’s academic performance. He believes that attitude today plays the largest part to any student’s success.

This noncompetitive activity was part of the “Healthy Choices” program at Oxford Middle School. “Healthy Choices” encourages young people to adopt a healthy lifestyle by using a simple 5-2-1 message — eat five or more fruits and vegetables a day, spend two hours or less in front of a TV or computer each day, and engage in one hour or more of vigorous physical activity a day.

The performance, entitled “A Better You ... A Better Me: Building Character Through Music,” featured a wide variety of songs about fair play and respect aimed at teaching students the importance of proper behavior both in class and outside of school around their friends and relatives. The event was dedicated to Mrs. Marilyn O’Connor, a member of the school’s reading support staff, who will retire from Dudley Elementary at the end of this school year. O’Connor’s retirement comes on the heels of 35 years of service to the students and families of Dudley.

Currently, the car gets somewhere in the range of 60 miles per gallon. With specialized driving techniques and car modifications, however, this number can range as high as 70 mpg or more. Area businesses go green at Earth Day Expo BY PATRICK SKAHILL TIMES STAFF WRITER WEBSTER — Get ready to go green! From hybrid car demonstrations to visits from environmental activists, the halls of Edward’s Emporium turned into a bustle of green activity last Tuesday, April 22, during the Webster-Dudley Business Alliance’s “Earth Day Expo” — an event featuring a number of informational and interactive displays aimed at promoting area business owners and raising environmental awareness. According to Webster-Dudley Business Alliance President Rebecca Leonard, the group came up with the idea for an Earth Day Expo several months ago, working diligently to bring the project together over the past few weeks. Members of the group thought the idea for a green day in town would be a particularly popular one this year, especially in light of the high profile all things green are receiving as gas prices continue to skyrocket. Last Tuesday night, Webster residents were able to pick the brains of two hybrid car and fuel-economy experts, getting their questions answered about what they can do to lessen the hit their wallet takes at the pump. While these hybrids can obtain upwards of 60-plus miles per gallon (mpg) with modifications, those of us with old-fashioned combustion engines need not lose complete hope, the experts said.

It wasn’t all cars and gas talk at the Emporium last Tuesday night, however. Turning an eye from the road to the wilderness, members of the French River Connection, Webster Lake Association and Dudley Conservation Land Trust were all on hand, explaining how water levels are monitored around the area and educating residents about the upkeep of conserved land around town. Among some interactive displays were actual waterway samples from the French River — which residents could examine under a microscope — along with a presen- Since 1965 tation covering how members of the Connection deal with the ever-growing beaver problem in this area — in case you are wondering, they put fencing around the bottom of the trees so the beavers can’t chew them down.

W hen we last left Rome on our Italian Treasures adventure, we were headed for Pisa on a sunny Sunday. Good thing we were in a bus with 44 passengers, a knowledgeable tour guide (Marisa), and a skilled driver (Flavio). The bus was way too big for any city street we were ever on. Therefore, we were constantly being passed by cars the size of golf carts and motorcycles the size of, well, motorcycles. The important thing we soon learned about highway travel in Italy was the strategic placement of “autogrilles,” basically turnpike rest stops, complete with snack bar, convenience store, and toilets. The latter facilities ranged from actual holes in the ground to seatless porcelain thrones. Typically there’s an attendant sitting outside the facility collecting an agreedupon “tip” — either 20 cents or 50 cents Euro, depending on the cleanliness of the facility or its distance from the next hole in the ground. So our basic traveling rule became: When the bus stops, we go! Pisa is a tiny town with a S OU big attraction. I don’t mean IKE T the ever-present gypsies selling scarves and sunglasses, MARK but the leaning tower that could have been straightASHTON ened long ago, but thereafter would have destroyed its own tourism industry, which relies on the wow factor of world travelers who stand in the shadow of this familiar landmark and take pictures of one another pretending to hold up (or push down) the many tiered tower. If it were removed to the Holy Land, this could be the Tower of Babel, but otherwise it needs to remain in Pisa, where film and disposable camera sales are brisk and all roads lead to a tiny town square where there are shops for jewelry and Pinocchio puppets and Italian gelato. From Pisa to Lucca, an ancient walled city like nearly every city we encountered, including Siena, where they still hold the odd horse race in season around the cobble-stoned piazza. We spent a day or two in Firenze (Florence), one of the world’s most architecturally and artistically impressive places. We saw Michelangelo’s “David,” a 13-foot tall slab of marble that captures the essence of humanity perhaps better than any other piece of sculpture in the world. (We also saw it in 23,000 miniature versions and with its frontal nudity plastered onto kitschy aprons — supposedly for manly men to wear at backyard grills from Florence to Florida.) On to Verona, for a peek at Juliet’s balcony (wasn’t she a fictional character?), where graffiti attests to her ongoing popularity and where young men of all ages cup the right breast on her bronze statue to win their own star-crossed girlfriend. On to Tuscany and Verrazano Castle, home of the world’s best chianti, and other fruits of the sun-kissed vine. They tell me the DOCG quality (Dirt and Origin Control Guaranteed?) vino is primo. Judging by the late afternoon singing in the wine-tasting room, they may be right. As impressive as the ancient churches and walled cities and piazzas and wine production are elsewhere in Italy, they still can’t compare with everything about Venice, a city built on some 115 (some say 118) islands in the middle of a lagoon. Though the city’s foundation is thousands (and thousands) of wooden poles pounded into the mud, they have stone palaces and churches atop them that rank with the best of the rest of Italy. Our tour of the Doge’s (President’s) Palace revealed a successful Republican government that was the center of world trade for some 1,100 years — until that upstart Columbus “discovered” a new route to riches and a whole other world of marine mercantilism outside of Europe and Asia. On to Assisi, Spello, Orvieto. Our own appreciation of Italy is now based on sauce-laden dinners, neck-straining tours of guilty pleasures, the relics of ancient saints (a severed skull here, a finger bone there), transportation by water taxi, gondola, funicular, and bus, and informative walking tours detailing the lives and times of some of the greatest artists, architects, emperors, entrepreneurs, and saints of ancient days. So now I feel completely qualified to write either of two books: “Where to Pee in Eet-a-lee” or “Ancient Italy on 110 Euros a Day.” Unfortunately, there’s not much commercial value in either one, so I may have to write off our “Italian Treasures” adventure as simply that, a modern exploration of the land of ancient romance, ruins, art, and architecture. It finally strikes me, though, that while a month ago I was thinking of America (and New England in particular) as a land rich in history and tradition, we’re actually still in our infancy when it comes to telling the story of civilization. Sure, MODERN Italy wasn’t even unified until after our own Civil War, but as the multiprovinced boot in the middle of the Mediterranean, Italy has been around 10 times longer than America. While we’ve got some 233 years of national history under our collective belt, Italy has cobblestone roads older than that, brick walled villages and bridges older than that, working vineyards older than that, dust on wine bottles older than that. So it would behoove anyone interested in seeing America’s “experiment in democracy” survive to take note, to consider what helped Rome rule the world for as long as it did and what led to the fall of the Roman Empire, what gave Venice more than a millennium of success in world commerce and what led to its eventual decline. There are marvelous lessons to be learned — and a whole lot of beautiful scenery, cuisine and world history to be enjoyed — in anyone’s Italian Treasures vacation. A Y L I H ad he not imploded (read: lost his marbles) in the ’04 presidential election, and had actually maintained a snowball’s chance to win his party’s nomination, would Howard Dean have caved in to pressure and bowed out to give his part “time to heal?” That is, of course, if he had been running neck and neck with eventual Democratic Primary winner John “not that JFK” Kerry? One has to wonder, because last week, there was Dean, no longer a presidential wannabe, but instead relegated to heading up the Democratic National Committee, calling on the two remaining Democratic presidential candidates to “figure out” who exactly will represent his or her party before the National Convention. On the one hand, you have Barack Obama. On the other, Hillary Clinton. Obama has the upper hand with delegates, a lead Clinton doesn’t figure to top. However, Clinton has momentum on her side after a big win in Pennsylvania. She also seems to be gaining in the popular vote. Hillary, being a Clinton, isn’t likely to drop out of the race just because Howard Dean, or anyone else, for that matter, says she should. And why should she? Perhaps she should just be a good little girl and step aside so the men can take care of things; you know, patch up all the damage done by a power-hungry woman who just didn’t know when to cry “uncle.” Perhaps she should see the writing on wall, the words that clearly spell out “Obama is the flavor du jour,” and gracefully bow out. Then again, what has grace got to do with politics? No, Hillary Clinton insists she is sticking around. She will remain that prickly little thorn in the side of the Democratic Party, right to the bitter end. Or so it seems. It’s true that Obama leads in overall delegates; that the so-called super delegates will likely decide who loses to — excuse me — who faces off against Republican John McCain in November. It’s true that it’s a long shot for Clinton to win her party’s nomination; that for all the momentum she has gained and for all the doubt that now appears to be hanging over the Obama camp — for all that, the New York senator is not likely to be sworn in as the next president of the United States. Given that, say the critics, why won’t this stubborn, power-mad politician just acknowledge the obvious and step aside? Why won’t she play the good Democrat and offer her support to her rival? Again, why should she? Since when is competition a bad thing? And shouldn’t this and any election be about putting forth the best possible candidate? If one thing has been made crystal clear in this Democratic race, it’s that voters simply aren’t sure, yet, who they consider the best candidate. So why should one of them just walk away, when that person clearly has garnered enough support to keep the race going? Maybe, at the end of the day, this is what the Democratic Party needs. Instead of anointing their savior of the moment, maybe the party needs a battle the likes of which is playing out before our eyes. The Dems, after all, have been a group in disarray — a party without a direction. Sure, they have scored victories here and there, but when they have, such as in Congress, they’ve flushed any goodwill down the toilet. A fight like this — down to the wire — might actually pull them closer together, strange as it may sound. When all is said and done, Obama and Clinton are still Democrats, still beholden to their party. Neither is going to abandon ship just because of a campaign-trail battle. Exactly how much healing does Dean think is going to occur if one of the candidates drops out of the race? Will there be a Kumbaya moment, with Clinton and Obama embracing warmly and announcing a joint candidacy for president? It’s not out of the question, although neither candidate appears to possess the humility to accept “second place.” Ego is a requisite for a politician, and both Obama and Clinton have it in abundance. While we’re on the topic of dropping out, why should it be Clinton? Couldn’t one put up the argument that, hey, Obama isn’t that far ahead, anyway, and he has hurt the party with some of the revelations that have come out of his camp (hello, Rev. Wright). The first black president would have been great, but heck, first female prez isn’t a bad consolation prize. That isn’t likely to happen. The two foes appear locked in a battle to the finish, wherever and whenever that may be. It sure would make for great theater — and media fodder — if both headed into the convention without a party representative clearly decided. In the meantime, Howie, keep up that screeching and screaming. It worked so well for you the last time.

Turner took a no-hitter into the seventh inning against Pathfinder, but an infield single by Kyle Pubieglo ruined the no-no bid for Turner. However, his team came out on top, 10-0. Turner was on top of his game, and from the very first pitch he overpowered his foes. The senior struck out the first three batters he faced en route to 13 on the day. “They didn’t know what was coming,” said Turner. “They’re a good team, but I was able to keep them offbalance.” Through the first five innings, 12 of the 15 outs recorded by the Minutemen were via the strikeout. “(Turner) was into it. Once he gets in his zone, he’s tough,” said Bay Path head coach Mark Sansoucy. On the offensive side, the Minutemen were just as impressive, but it took a while for the bats to get hot. “Before (the April 22) game, we had a couple of days off, so I think the players needed to get their timing back a little. But then they got going,” said Sansoucy. In the fourth inning, Bay Path’s Steve Renaud got the inning started with an unassuming base on balls. The next two, Brandon Normandin and Juan Maldando, each popped up. Then with two outs, the Minutemen went on a tear. Joe Carmody got Bay Path started with a double to left field, scoring Renaud. Zach Austin followed and was hit by a pitch. Left fielder and leadoff man Tim Brayton then reached base on a high fly ball to right-center field. However, miscommunication in the Pathfinder outfield allowed the easy pop-up to fall to the ground, allowing Austin to advance to third — and, more importantly, keep the inning going. Minutemen center fielder Erik Peterson was then hit by a pitch. Turner helped his own cause by striking a ball to opposite field to knock in Austin. Spencer Donovan, the team’s cleanup hitter, followed that up with a tworun double. Eventually the inning ended on David Prince’s strikeout, but not before Bay Path put up seven runs to put the game out of reach for Pathfinder.

Selectmen are scrambling with how to make up the difference, striving for a balanced budget by the May 20 Town Meeting so they have free cash for bills and do not run a deficit until the fall Town Meeting. In FY09, expenditures for the town increased by approximately 4.5 percent with school expenses raising by 4.52 percent. “I’m sure some departments will find it hard to [draft cuts], but sometimes you have to be able to bite the bullet,” said Selectman Anthony DiDonato. Town Administrator Peter Jankowski proposed balancing the budget using funds obtained via an assessment reduction of $1.04 million from the Dudley-Charlton Regional School district. The reduction, which sprang from the state’s elimination of deferral accounts, equated to a one-time payout of $451,846. While these funds would provide a short term “out” for town officials, Dudley would nevertheless still be facing at least the same budget deficit next year, when operating costs would almost certainly be higher. “During this coming year the Board of Selectmen has to take the bull by the horns and decide how do you want this town to run,” said Finance Committee member Dave Gould. “It can’t all fall on the Board of Selectmen,” argued Selectman Brian Germain, emphasizing how town officials need financial support from the town and that individual departments should continue to have some say in how the departmen- tal cuts work out. As selectmen discussed possible ways to cut the budget, Szymczak advanced the idea of regionalizing some town departments with Webster to cut down on operating expenses. “We really have to start doing that,” she said — citing how several towns have begun to combine programs such as Veteran’s Services. Selectmen are scheduled to meet next Monday, May 5, at 6 p.m. to discuss the budget draft re-submittals from all town departments. caught fire on the top of the appliance and then spread to the wall behind it. When police arrived on the scene, they were met in the driveway by a “frantic” Kuria, who informed officers she heard children inside the burning building. Officers immediately entered the apartment, which was filled with a large volume of smoke, and rescued the three children along with their pet dog. First responders to the scene included Sgt. Kelley, officers Tobby Wheeler, Patrick Perry, Donald Southall and Assistant Fire Chief Robert Gryncewicz. Kelley said officers believed the children had been left alone in the apartment for “at least an hour.” According to police reports, Page received a phone call about the fire and arrived at the scene as responders were continued from page A1 three children — a three-year-old boy and two-month-old twin brother and sisters. According to Webster Police Sgt. Michaela Kelley, officers responded to a report of smoke at 11 Myrtle Ave. at 4:09 p.m. Saturday, April 26. Anne Kuria, who owns the building and resides on the second floor, called in the report notifying authorities she saw smoke emanating from the structure’s first floor. Prior to the arrival of the emergency workers, Ms. Kuria entered the apartment, investigating the smoke and was met with “extremely heavy smoke conditions and fire,” according to police reports. She allegedly attempted to douse the flames with a wet towel, but was unsuccessful when the towel itself caught fire, police said.

If you’ve heard Ken perform live (like I have), you were probably not too surprised to learn he just won both awards. With his astounding original songs and excellent blues-rock take on select cover tunes, Macy’s vocals and guitar playing are as good live as on his award-winning CD “What If.” To learn more about Macy and hear his music, visit www.myspace.com/kenmacy. Don’t miss award-winning performer Ken Macy at The Lodge Restaurant & Lounge at 8 p.m. this Friday, May 2. The Lodge is just a half-mile off 395 at Exit 2 (Route 16 toward Douglas) in Webster, only 15 minutes from Worcester and five minutes from the Connecticut border. With its relaxed atmosphere and great food, the Lodge is the place to see and hear the best upand-coming local acts. Saturday, May 3, at Club Kas-Bar on Route 20 in Worcester, The Law Dawgs (motorcycle club consisting of members of the Worcester Police Department) are sponsoring the second annual benefit for the family of PFC Brian Moquin, who was killed in Afghanistan. Entertainment again is by Big Gunz (www.biggunz.org). They perform mostly arena and classic rock, with two of the band members being from Woodstock, Conn., and others from Charlton, Sutton and Millbury, Mass. The band starts midafternoon after the bike run. This is an all-youcan-eat barbecue, with chicken, burgers, dogs, mussels, lasagna, salad and more. Tickets are $15 for the event or $20 including the bike run.

It’s usually something full size. Last year it was a Pontiac Grand Prix, which I liked. I never could understand all the criticism surrounding it because I found it to be a solid sedan, even in the rental car trim level. I now understand why everybody maligns the Chevrolet Impala. It may be named after a graceful antelope, but this is one dog that can’t hunt. There is nothing that stands out about this sedan so that I could recommend it against competition like the Ford Taurus, Nissan Altima, Honda Accord or Toyota Camry. GM is making the right decision to pull back on its sales to rental car fleets. There’s no way to entice buyers to purchase a car they’ve rented if they had such a bad experience with it. By the way, this isn’t a diatribe against rental cars. I worked in the industry during college and I owned a used rental car. This is a diatribe against the Chevy Impala. The Impala I drove had the 3.5-liter V-6 engine that is best described as adequate. Central Florida is basically flat so there are no hills to challenge it. However, I found it lacking when pressed for quick acceleration. The best thing that could be said about the engine is it so uninspired me that I never felt the urge to speed. The engine delivers 211 horsepower and 214-lb. ft. of torque. Chevy touts its fuel economy and it’s good at 18 mpg city and 29 mpg highway. In that respect, it’s the right vehicle for somebody on a business trip. They’re not going to waste a lot of time filling up at the pump. It doesn’t drive like a big car, but it can comfortably seat five adults. One advantage is its weight at 3,555 lbs. is The 2008 Chevrolet Impala can best be described as adequate. There is little to recommend this vehicle with so many better mid-size sedans out there at comparable prices. Photo © Chevrolet pretty svelte for its size. That could contribute to its good highway mileage. Plus, it’s jelly bean design does cut through the wind. There are some pluses to the Impala for 2008. XM radio comes standard. All but the base trim level (which is, of course, the one I rented) comes with electronic stability control. I’ve beat this drum before, but it can’t be said enough. Electronic stability control is the best safety feature available when it comes to accident avoidance. The Impala’s LT trim level has other safety features available. The Impala includes features designed to enhance the vehicle structure, including lighter, more rigid front and rear bumper systems. Also, the Impala features a strengthened “safety cage” passenger compartment with the front and rear doors designed for improved energy dissipation in the event of a crash. The Impala’s interior is really uninspired. The model I drove came with cloth seats. Granted, they were welcome in the Florida heat but they looked washed out on this particular Impala that had about 18,000 miles on it. Plus, in four days behind the wheel I never found a comfortable driving position. However, the more expensive trim levels do have one feature lacking in the rental car that should be included: flip-and-fold rear seats. The forwardflip rear seat cushions reveal a storage tub under the seat that can contain spillage while transporting a variety of items. The tub also serves as a covered storage area beneath the seat with cushions down and offer convenient grocery bag hooks when the cushions are flipped forward. A generous passthrough from the trunk can be created by flipping the seat bottoms forward and the seat backs flat – an exclusive feature in the midsize segment. The dashboard is well designed. Its controls are clean and easy to understand, which makes it the ideal vehicle for rentals. You’ll never be confused about where everything is if you’re a road warrior renting vehicles week after week. The Impala is priced at $21,650, but it’s not possible to recommend this car based on price. I think the Chevy Malibu is a much better car and it can be acquired for a comparable price. Overall, I’m glad I experienced this car as a rental. I normally have a car for seven days and I was only behind the wheel of the Impala for four days.
