119 Years of Continuous PublicationOne hundred and nineteen

years ago, an Italian immi-grant who arrived in Bostonwhen he was only 16 yearsold saw the realization of hisfondest dreams, to establishan Italian language newspa-per that would be the genu-ine voice of the increasingflow of Italians to the UnitedStates. The boy was JamesV. Donnaruma, the newspa-per was LA GAZZETTA DELMASSACHUSETTS which isnow published in English asthe POST-GAZETTE.

He remained at the helmof this well-known publica-tion until his demise in1953 at which time his son,Caesar, took over the reinsof running the now famousnational weekly newspaperlocated in the North End ofBoston. Caesar was loyallyassisted by an ingeniouswife, Phyllis, who assumedthe role of publisher in1971, as one the nationsfirst Italo-American womenpublishers. Upon Phyllis’death in October 1990, theirdaughter, Pamela, contin-ued the tradition as thethird generation publisher ofthe POST-GAZETTE.

The GAZZETTA, as it wasproperly called, was veryshort in financial meansbut had a large vision, togive its readers a betterand wider understandingbetween two countries. Theso-called Italian Colony, or“La Colonia,” had to face acomplexity of problems andthe GAZZETTA had to under-stand the slow and hardtransition of men who, inmost cases, had been en-gaged in agriculture in thehome country. Here, theywere to work in construc-tion, factories and restau-rants, eventually emergingas small storekeepers andfinally the professionals,heads of business enter-prises and eventually tobecome industrial leaders,heads of state, people to berespected by others.

If America was to some abitter disappointment, tomore it remained a great ad-venture and excitement.There were new ways tobe learned as well as newinstitutions. There werespeculators and exploiters tobe fought, a “padrone” sys-tem needed to be destroyed.

There were churches to bebuilt and above all, immi-grants took advantage ofAmerica’s free educationwhile learning the process ofcitizenship. We devotedpages and pages to that veryimportant mission!

The GAZZETTA became, ina way, a sort of guide, soto speak, the go-betweenthat brought Americanpolitical life to the Italianimmigrant. Many times ourpeople were sent unknow-ingly to work in places sub-ject to a strike and weretherefore exposed to physi-cal violence on the part ofstrikers ... in time, the situ-ation changed as theylearned more about the newland of opportunity.

The Italian immigrantwas a hard worker, a thriftyman, a family man. He hadpride. As a family their goalwas to build a future inAmerica. The GAZZETTAstressed these virtues. Webegan to publish an all-English section whichbecame a real forum, dis-cussing many problems,


Obama as World CitizenI am just finally realizing why so many of Presi-

dent Obama’s critics have wondered aboutObama’s birthright. Was he born in Hawaii or washe born in Kenya? Back in his young college days,he reportedly seemed to have pretended to be aforeign exchange student, say many of his oppo-nents. I personally think he was born in Hawaiidespite all the craziness about his long-form birthcertificate.

The only reason his birth place seems relevantto many is the fact that no other American presi-dent lived in so many places in and out of thecountry.

I have always said I am more concerned wherehe is taking us rather than where he was born.

However, I must say no other president seemsto dismiss his country so much rather than build-

He was a confessor whose deathis commemorated on August 16th; he is spe-cially invoked against the plague. He mayalso be called Rock in English. He is a patronSaint of dogs and falsely accused people.

Mythology may be definedas a collection of legends orfictitious stories of a race ornation. It’s also the namegiven to the scientific studyof such myths; the myth it-self, of course, being a storyrelating to gods or heroes.Many myths are not entirelyproducts of imagination;some of them are slightlyrelated to fact. The fact couldhave been some naturalphenomena from the past oreven recurring events.

The Greeks seem to havebeen the most creative inthe development of theirmyths. Their gods originallyrepresented the powers ofnature, while at the sametime, each was limited tospecific natural phenomena,such as fire, light, moon,war, love, rain, thunder, etc.Each of these were regardedas acts of specific gods,therefore a whole cycle ofmyths was developed. Theybelieved that their gods weresuperhuman, but requiredthe human necessities oflife (food, drink, sleep, sex,etc.). It was also believedthat they had the power overnature and humans, andthat all good or evil camefrom them, consequently,their favor could be obtainedby behavior which waspleasing to them, and lost bybehavior which was displeas-ing. Although they had nor-mal moral weaknesses, theyalso possessed immortality.Ancient writers connectedall of the Greek gods by cre-

ating a complete family linewhich was presided over byZeus.

To the ancient Romans,the gods remained as imper-sonal natural forces, andthese gods did little to earnthe affection of the people orto challenge their imagina-tion.

The gods were favored butnot loved; worshiped asa duty to the state in thesame spirit as they paidtheir taxes. In addition tothe gods of the sea, earth,sky, and lower world, theyalso had gods of thievery,lust, typhoid fever, etc. Theyeven erected a great num-ber of temples to variouspersonifications or repre-sentations such as Concord,Honor, Valor, fidelity, Mod-esty, Hope, and Intelligence.During later years, their as-sociation with the Greeksmade possible a systematicstudy of Greek mythologyand its genealogy. It wasthen that close likenesseswere identified; such asZeus with Jupiter; Hera withJuno; Ares with Mars;Athena with Minerva, etc.During the coming weeks itwill be my pleasure topresent thumbnail sketchesof many mythical gods andgodesses, according to oneof the most simplified gene-alogies that my researchcan produce.

MYTHOLOGY

“Best Wishes for 119 More Years”

Emanuel “Gus” Serra

Last week I wrote aboutUber and Lyft, two relativelynew car services that aremaking a big dent in the taxibusiness. The services arewildly popular with riderswho, for years, have beenstuck with not much alterna-tive to broken down andwrecked taxis, driven by surlydrivers who refuse to put onthe air conditioning in thesummer, pad the bill, refuseto accept credit cards, and areso engaged in their loudmobile phone conversationsin foreign languages thatthey don’t pay attention to theroad and put the passengersat risk of serious injury.

Passengers see Uber andLyft as the solution to poorquality taxi service. Localgovernments see Uber andLyft as the problem. ThePeople’s Republic of Cam-bridge has tried repeatedlyto ban Uber and Lyft. Cam-bridge is not alone in oppos-ing giving riders the optionsthey want. But, in city aftercity, the politicians havehad to back down. They arelearning that they cannotstand athwart history yellingSTOP. The people want Uberand Lyft and will not tolerateelected and appointed offi-cials abusing their offices tocome to the aid of the old taximonopoly.

It is, for me, exciting towatch a supposedly immov-able object, the taxi com-pany/municipal governmentand their symbiotic relation-ship, get pushed aside bythe irresistible force that isPeople Power. People Poweris being asserted elsewhere,in the current struggle overthe future of the MarketBasket chain of food stores.

The Greek drama that isthe quarter-of-century-oldDemoulas family feud overcontrol of the business thatAthanasios and EfrosiniDemoulas started in Lowell in1916 is worthy of a made-for-TV miniseries. The fam-ily lawsuit in the early 1990sover ownership nearly de-stroyed the business, but itsurvived, and indeed thrived.

Market Basket customerslove the store. We love thelow prices. We love thatalthough it is a chain, the se-lections in store are tailoredto the local community — theMethuen store abounds in

Italian delicacies, the NorthAndover store serves the Syr-ian community, the Chelseastore is a little Latin America.The employees are extremelyknowledgeable, helpful, andcheerful, making marketinga pleasant experience. As forthe employees, they are wellpaid and treated with respectby management. Who needsa union when your bossmakes you feel like a family?This model of low prices, greatselections, and a happy staffhas worked, making theDemoulas family one of therichest in the Boston area.

By now you have seen thenews — massive walkouts ofMarket Basket employees,a widespread customer boy-cott, and rallies across thestate demanding the re-instatement of Arthur T.Demoulas as CEO. How will itend? I don’t know. But how-ever it ends, the board of thisclosely held, family-owned

The Customer May Not Always be Right, but He is the Customer

The “Southern Border” of Lynn?by Sal Giarratani

On Tuesday of this week, pro-immigration advocates andsupporters in the City of Lynn held a protest march to bashLynn Mayor Judy Kennedy for saying enough is enough whenit comes to the feds exporting illegal immigrants from oursouthern border in south Texas across the country to will-ing Deval Patrick and unwilling state governors.

Recently, Lynn’s mayor stated her concerns over the costsof taking in many of those unaccompanied children whichwould have a financial impact on city resources such aspublic education. For stating the obvious, advocates of im-migration reform, a.k.a. pro-open border people marched inthe streets of Lynn this week.

However, there will also be a rally at the State House onSaturday morning at 11:00 am dubbed the “Anti-Illegal In-vasion Rally” organized by Kuhner Country’s Jeff Kuhner ofWRKO Radio.

Good news out of Texas too. Governor Rick Perry called outthe Texas National Guard to assist with border security inthat state at the border.

Nazzaro Center a North End Gemby Sal Giarratani

Many neighborhoods are not nearly as lucky as Boston’sNorth End when it comes to youth programs. North Endersknow that our children are our future and it is our genera-tion that must prepare young people to grow up with thevalues and skills necessary to keep the North End commu-nity a growing and thriving neighborhood.

Here in the North End, we have many community activ-ists who volunteer their time and efforts to ensure that thereare programs available for our children to know what it takesto grow up with the right stuff.

Folks like John Romano, a.k.a. JR at North End AgainstDrugs, folks like Dominic Campochiaro at the North EndAthletic Association and folks like Carl Ameno at the Centeritself and many, many more are such community leaders.

GUEST EDITORIALS

It is my privilege and honorto invite all of you to attenda Mass of Thanksgiving at5:00 pm on Saturday, July 26th

followed by a reception in theChurch Hall.

The occasion is the 80th Birth-day of our beloved Fr. ClaudeScrima. Let me take this occa-sion to congratulate him and toexpress my deep gratitude forthe considerable amount of workthat he still performs on behalfof our parish.

Fr. Claude was ordained a Franciscanpriest in 1961 and ever since he has alwaysbeen active in several ministries. Afterdedicating his early years to teaching inhigh schools staffed by Franciscans and ourminor seminary in Andover, he moved to

Invitation toFr. Claude’s Birthday Celebration

chaplaincy and parochial min-istry. He also dedicated a fewyears of his life to the SecularFranciscan Order helping toestablish a provincial office atAndover, Massachusetts. He hasbeen an acclaimed retreat mas-ter and a preacher of missionsin parishes within and outsidethe Archdiocese of Boston.

You and I are here to witnesshow fruitful his apostolate hasbeen and continues to be. Byattending Mass and the recep-

tion we wish to express our gratitude to Godfor all Fr. Claude has accomplished so far inthe vineyard of the Lord and offer our prayersfor a long and ever fruitful life. Ad MultosAnnos!

Yours in Christ, Fr. Antonio

ing it up. We are America.We should be part of our his-tory. It isn’t perfect butcheck it out against otherworld nations and we lookpretty good.

He comes along soundingso detached from hisnational origin. He viewsthe world as a whole. Is hejust a world citizen? Iseverything global to him?Recently, he compared theUnited States to France, say-ing if France can do it, whycan’t we? Why should we befollowing France’s lead onanything? Why must we bea follower than a leader?

Whatever Happened toFederalism?

Are the states under our

federal Constitution coveredfrom being used by thefeds to unload their prob-lems onto individual statesand communities? Whathappened to the conceptof federalism where thestates had protection froman overbearing federalgovernment?

Recently, the feds took twoplane-loads of illegals fromour southern border toHanscom Air Field wherethey were reportedly busedto nearby communities forhousing needs. I heardLynn got some of them. Willplaces like Cambridge, New-ton, Wellesley and Hinghambe getting any of theseillegals or do these illegals

go to poorer communitiesonly?

Down in Lawrenceville,Virginia, the feds trieddumping illegals and folkswent ballistic and said noway Jose. Supporters of thisdumping tried using guiltat opponents but it didn’twork. More communitiesmust stand up like the Townof Lawrenceville and say NO.I say put them on in Wash-ington, DC, That city isalready gone anyway.

Better still, build a secureborder and keep them outand don’t let them in to be-gin with. Passing them outaround the country likecandy shows just how badthings are at the moment.

RECENT COURT POTRULING

Many in law enforcementseem quite upset over arecent Supreme JudicialCourt ruling in the Bay Statethat says an officer catchinga whiff of unburnt weed doesnot have cause to search avehicle but the other side ofthe argument says, it is avictory for civil liberties.

“How is it any differentfrom stopping someone withan odor of alcohol on theirbreath?” asked Wayne Simp-son, executive director of theMass. Chiefs of Police Asso-ciation. “The same principleshould apply.” Bristol CountySheriff Tom Hodgson added,“Rulings like this do nothingbut handcuff the good guys.”

The Court ruling statedthat police officers can’treach probable cause levelsto search a vehicle becauserecognizing the smell ofmarijuana alone can’t tellwhether the amount beingdetected is an illegal amountby smell alone.

I do agree with thosegroups like NORML thatlaw enforcement could usethe odor of weed as anexcuse to violate the FourthAmendment.

The Fourth Amendmentwasn’t placed inside the topten Bill of Rights protectionby accident. The ruling wasa good one and I fully supportit.

“Chilling out” as the weatherkicks it up a notch; the naturaltendency can be to get everyoneup and out of the house, petsincluded. While spending moretime outdoors can be a greatsource of exercise and fun forall involved, it’s essential to bewary of heat exhaustion in youranimals.

1. There are two majorreasons pets get overheated,hyperthermia and their upperrespiratory system. Hyper-thermia occurs when ani-mals are trapped in an envi-ronment (like a cat on thebeach on a hot day) that over-whelms their ability to coolthemselves. Pets with com-promised upper airways, likebulldogs, or an acquired con-dition like paralysis of thelarynx have more difficultyremoving heat in their bod-ies through panting. Theseanimals often find that, inattempting to cool them-selves, they generate moreheat through exertion andcan fall victim to heat stroke.Symptoms of heat exhaustioninclude excessive panting orlabored breathing, increasedheart and respiratory rate,drooling and mild weakness.More severe symptoms caninclude seizures, bloodydiarrhea and vomiting and abody temperature of over 104degrees Fahrenheit.

2. Beat the Sun: pets aresmarter than we give themcredit for, and prefer stayingat home and laying on coolsurfaces (like a tiled kitchenfloor) in the heat of the day.Save your outdoor time withyour pet for early in the morn-ing or in the evening once thesun has set. By taking yourdaily walk, run or visit to thepark either before or after thesun is at its hottest, the airwill be easier for your pet tobreathe and the ground willbe cooler on the pads of theirpaws.

3. Find Some Shade: if youdo find yourself out in middaywith your pet, make sure youkeep them out of direct sun-light or give them a shadyplace to get out of the sun.Remember, your pets don’twear shoes, so the pads oftheir paws can be burnedwalking across particularly

hot sand or asphalt. If it’sextremely warm, keep themindoors as much as possible.

4. Leave Fluffy and Fido atHome: the classic mistake forowners is leaving a pet in aclosed car on a sunny warmday when the temperature inyour car can rapidly climb toover 140 degrees Fahrenheit.It’s solar heating that’s theculprit, so you can face seri-ous risks even on a comfort-able day. The takeaway? Asmuch as your pet may loveriding in the car or spendingtime with you, if it’s hot outand there’s a chance they’llbe uncomfortable the bestthing to do is leave themhome. Panting takes moreexertion than sweating andcan bring your pet to respira-tory distress faster than youthink. Avoid any potential is-sue by keeping them safe andcool at home.

5. Hydration, Hydration,Hydration: in addition tooverheating, pets can getdehydrated quickly, so you’llwant to make plenty of fresh,clean water available tothem. Panting is effective inallowing animals to cool downbecause it helps evaporatefluids from the respiratorytract. Help replace thesefluids and prevent dehydra-tion by leaving out water orwater alternatives through-out the day, particularly whenyour pet has spent time out-

side in the heat. Wateralternatives are especiallygreat for pets since they re-plenish electrolytes and tastegreat.

6. Be Mindful of CertainBreed Conditions: if your petis brachycephalic or has a flatshaped face like pugs, Pe-kingese, Boston terriers andPersian cats they cannotpant as effectively and aremore susceptible to heatstroke. Be especially carefulwith breeds like these in hotweather and keep plenty ofwater on hand. The ASPCAadvises that pets which areelderly, overweight and haveheart or lung disease shouldbe kept in air-conditionedrooms as much as possible inthe heat.

7. To Trim or Not to Trim:many pet owners, especiallycat parents, incorrectly thinkthat shaving their animals inthe heat will help cool themdown. In reality, the layers ofyour pet’s coat help to protectthem from overheating andsunburn. Trimming long hairis perfectly okay, according tothe ASPCA, but it’s unneces-sary to do anything else forcooling purposes. Brushingyour cat more often to help re-move loose fur can also pre-vent overheating.

I hope this article will helpyou beat the heat especially formy pooch friends.

That’s all for now …

O

Ciao Bella,These days I’ve been

finding myself travel-ing by plane quitefrequently. Not aneasy task whenpreparing not tocheck a bag. I lostone set of luggageonce on ChristmasEve in Miami and hadto find a department storethat carried my plus size!Burdick’s was similar toJordan Marsh and I shoppedthere frequently when I livedin Florida for a stint. Wellthere were no bathing suitsto be bought, the salesgirltold me since it was winterthere were none in stock! Icreatively made due witha sleeveless swing, lovelyblack top and black under-wear. I did find clothes forthe Christmas Eve party andcharged it all to the airlines!All I wanted for Christmasthat year was my suitcase!It arrived on Christmas Day.I have never checked a bagagain!

I do enjoy packing all myfav clothes and accessoriesafter all I usually go on ashopping spree just before atrip. However packing yourtoiletries these days with allthe TSA rules is a chore notto be ignored. Here are some

tips for a relaxed check-point and flight;

1) Remember TSA’s3-1-1 rule. To betaken in a carry-on bag, all liquids,gels and aerosols

must be in 3.4ounce or smaller con-

tainers that fit in a1 sealed quart size zip-

lock plastic bag, with only 1bag per passenger.

2) Pack your liquids, gelsand aerosols separate fromother toiletries.

3) Pack oversize liquids inyour checked bag.

4) You don’t have to throwit away, in case you findyourself with an expensivejar of face cream at check-point there are kiosks inmany airports where youcan mail it home or leavecheckpoint to find a storethat has a smaller containerto be placed in your zip-lockbag. Best idea is to purchaseregulated 3.4 ounce emptycontainers at your localbeauty store or pharmacy.

I usually will try a very goodsample brand of skin carealong with my Kosmea RoseHip Oil (meets TSA Rules)and tuck it in the zip-lockbag.


Saint Macrina was born inCappadocia (a region of

Saint Macrina the Youngerby Bennett Molinari and Richard Molinari

present Turkey) at thebeginning of the fourth cen-tury. She was the sisterof Saints Basil the Great andGregory of Nyssa. Macrina’smother, Saint Emilia, guidedher upbringing and educa-tion. She taught her readingand writing and the Scrip-tural books and Psalms ofDavid, selecting examplesfrom the sacred bookswhich spoke of a pious andGod-pleasing life. St Emiliataught her daughter to prayand to attend church ser-vices. Macrina was alsotaught the proper knowledgeof domestic life and various

handicrafts. She was neverleft idle

Macrina, at the age oftwelve, was betrothed byher parents to a young manfrom a prominent family buther fiancé died before thewedding. Many young mensought marriage with her,but she refused them allhaving chosen to dedicatethe rest of her life to Godand not wanting to be un-faithful to the memory ofher dead fiancé. St Macrinalived in the home of herparents, together with theservants; she helped man-age the family estate andhelped with the upbringingof her younger brothers andsisters.

On the death of theirfather, her brother Basiltook Macrina, with theirmother, to a family estate onthe River Iris, in Pontus.Here, with their servantsand other companions theyled a life of retirement fromthe world consecratingthemselves to God. Strict as-ceticism, zealous medita-tion on the truths of Chris-tianity, and prayer werethe chief concerns of thiscommunity. Not only thebrothers of St. Macrina, butalso St. Gregory of Nazianzusand Eustathius of Sebastewere associated with theircommunity. Having takenmonastic vows, they livedtogether as one family, they

There are few titles I have held longer thanfilm buff. I’ve always loved film, though itwasn’t until my early high school years thatI began studying it seriously. Since then, alarge portion of my life has been devoted tostudying the art of cinema. And my love forfilm and film studies can be attributed to fivenames: Pauline Kael, the famed New Yorkercritic who never minced words yet her lovefor film always shined through, RichardSchickel, the Time critic and film historianwhose insight on movies is matched only byhis fabulous prose, Leonard Maltin, LeslieHaliwell, and finally Roger Ebert, a manwhose passion for the movies and writingstyle will never be paralleled.

But, as with most of my interests, my lovefor cinema was first sparked by my parents.My mother took me to my first movie when Iwas very young, despite her friends warningher that I was too young to appreciate it. Mymother must have sensed the film aficio-nado waiting to form in me and took me any-way to see Disney’s Song of the South,rereleased in theaters for its 40th anniver-sary. Memories of my first trip to the moviesare obviously hazy, but I do have vivid memo-ries of it. I remember Uncle Remus singing“Zip-a-dee-doo-dah” and the animatedsequences, and the climax where the littleboy is gored by the bull. I was hooked oncinema then and the magic of the movieshas never worn off.

Later years brought more movie goingexperiences, but my interest in film as acourse of study grew. I began devouring bookson the subject ranging from works about thesilent comics to Kael’s 5001 Nights at theMovies. Film-going as a mere source ofentertainment was a thing of the past forme. I began watching film the way a natu-ralist watches an animal or a psychologist

watches their patients. I watch film to observehow it works, why it works, and where it fails.And to this day, whether I love or hate a par-ticular film, I know that there is always moreto it than what appears on the screen andthe reasons for my response may be just aselusive. That is both the challenge and themost rewarding aspect of being a film scholar,understanding movies beyond the surface.

I have seen between 3,000 and 4,000 filmsand I show no signs of stopping. Quite theopposite, in fact. I’ve turned my greatest pas-sion to a long project and I’m assembling myessays on the different films I’ve seen intowhat will hopefully become my first book,which I hope will be not only a seminal workfor film scholars and lovers alike, but also atestament to my own love for the medium. Istill have quite some ways to go with that,but I’m not discouraged, because it meansdoing more of what I love, exploring the art ofcinema by discovering more films and apply-ing them through a critical analysis.

As my taste in movies has evolved so hasmy knowledge of film history and mecha-nisms. Additionally, I’ve added more namesto the list of film scholars I admire, includingDavid Thomson and Jonathan Rosenbaum.

If getting to the core of why a film works orfails is the most challenging aspect of filmstudies the most enjoyable part is the dis-coveries and surprises film holds for thecurious. As an art form that has spread on aglobal scale, encompassing talent fromaround the world, an entire lifespan couldeasily be spent discovering its many trea-sures. Film is, after all, an ever evolving artand watching it change both for the betterand the worse changes you as the scholar.Film, at its best, touches us in deeply per-sonal ways. Understanding those ways bringsus to a better understanding of ourselves.

goalie. Islanders GM GarthSnow, a former NHL and Uni-versity of Maine netminder,saw what he liked inJohnson and signed him upright away on July 1st —thefirst day a deal could be done.

No one can predict the fu-ture but we feel that therewill be some nights this win-ter when the Bruins wishthey had Johnson back. Hewas the perfect backup forRask and his departure fur-ther depletes the ranks ofthe B’s, a team that alsowon’t have Jarome Iginla (a

61-point producer) and ShawnThornton.

That’s a way of saying thatthe B’s will be different whenthey take the ice come fall.They may not be as strong aslast year. On about one thirdof the nights it’ll be Svedbergin the crease as the last lineof defense. Let’s hope he andthose in front of him are upto the task. Otherwise, thepossibility of the Bruins en-tering next spring’s StanleyCup playoffs without thehome ice advantage throughevery round looms large.

Known as the world ambas-sadors for reggae music,Jimmy Cliff, Bob Marley andPeter Tosh were born on theCaribbean island of Jamaica.With his characteristic “uni-versal outlook on life,”Jimmy Cliff is best recog-nized for top hits such as“Wonderful World, BeautifulPeople,” “Many Rivers toCross” and “The Harder They

Come.” He is the only livingmusician to hold the Orderof Merit, the highest arts andsciences honor granted bythe Jamaican government.

One of the world’s best-selling artists of all time,Bob Marley forged interna-tional fame for infusing hismusic with a profound senseof spirituality. His careerstarted in 1963 with the

group The Wailers. After TheWailers disbanded, he pur-sued a solo career that cul-minated with the release ofExodus, which brought himunparalleled acclaim. Withclassics such as “Roots, Rock,Reggae,” “Jammin” and “IsThis Love,” Marley continuesto entertain audiencesworldwide. Another famousmember of The Wailers,Peter Tosh revolutionized thereggae scene with controver-sial recordings such as“Legalize It,” “Coming inHot” and “Equal Rights.” Hiscareer culminated with aGrammy Award for BestReggae Performance.

The Scotch Bonnet Band isno stranger to the reggaegenre. Having backed andshared the stage with leg-ends including Toots Hibbert,Third World, Bob Andy,Congos and more, they willbring years of expertise tothe Beat Hôtel stage. Led by

Finding Neverland’s world premiere at the AmericanRepertory Theater will be available for your own fairytale adventure through September 28th.

This conservativefilmmaker had to go aroundthe Hollywood elites at greatexpense to write, directand produce a high qualitymotion picture to explainwhat makes America tickand he had to do the heavylifting to get this picture outacross the country startingthis past July 2nd.

The drive-by nothing tosee liberal news media com-pares him to Michael Moorebut D’Souza is far more upthere with Oliver Stone orStephen Spielberg as far ascrafting a storyline and grab-bing an audience.

Will “America” end up withthe same kind of theatricalsuccess will solely dependon movie goers across thecountry tired of all the liberalclaptrap out there. Recently,it was reported that Costcopulled D’Souza’s Americafrom its book racks. Theretail giant says it wasn’t apolitical decision but onemust remember that itsfounder and former CEO isone of Obama’s.

The book — now a movie— is now number one onAmazon. Costco can sellwhatever books it wishes butlet us hope no White Housearm-twisting was used topull the book off the shelves.I am glad the book is backfor sale at Costco and nowAmericans can get it again.As for the movie, you haveto search for it but it isworth every minute of thisD’Souza’s film.

America, the real Americaisn’t just a piece of NorthAmerican real estate, it isto use Bono’s words, an ideaof equality. We remain aspecial nation like no other.

America is Both a Great Country and Idea!

MORT SAHL LIVE: AN EVENINGWITH A COMEDY LEGEND — Au-gust 22 and August 24. Crowned asleading the new breed of modern co-medians by Time magazine in 1960,Mort Sahl was the first entertainerever to appear on its cover. Beforecomedy clubs existed, Sahl beganperforming at the Hungry I music clubin San Francisco in the early 1950s.He differed from other comedians,appearing in casual clothing ratherthan a suit, skewering popular politi-cians such as Eisenhower, JoeMcCarthy and JFK. Sahl’s approachis energetic, tangential, and deep andwide in both social and politicalscopes, inspiring Woody Allen, GeorgeCarlin and countless other comedi-ans. A 1955 performance with DaveBrubeck was recorded and released(without Sahl’s permission), selling asMort Sahl At Sunset, and recentlyrecognized by the Library of Congressas the first stand-up comedy recordalbum. When Kennedy was assassi-nated in 1963, Sahl regularly targetedthe government’s official WarrenCommission Report during his rou-tines, resulting in the loss of much ofHollywood’s support, while maintain-ing audience popularity with collegetours and a best-selling book, Heart-land. Sahl is the longest active per-forming American social satirist, span-ning sixty years.

Drafting the dead, after acomputer bug caused theU.S. Selective Service Sys-tem to send more than14,000 conscription lettersto men born in the 1800s. “Iwas dumbfounded,” ChuckHuey, 73, of Pennsylvania,after receiving a letterdemanding that his lategrandfather register for thedraft or face imprisonment.

Dead stops, after a mal-functioning door caused acorpse to fall from the backof a coroners’ van onto a busyPennsylvania road, makingtraffic come to a standstill.“I thought someone wasplaying a prank,” said onedriver. “I didn’t know if Ishould laugh or cry.”

Wow! An English courtruled that a restaurantowner must split his $1.7million lottery jackpot witha waiter who pestered himinto buying a ticket becausehe had a dream he’d win. Atlast, a dream that becametrue.

Huh? A new study revealedthat 26,000 British young-sters aged between 5 and9 are admitted to the hospi-tal every year because ofrotting teeth. “It all relatesto the consumption of sug-ary, frizzy drinks,” said adentist.

Bless them all! After de-cades of discussion, theChurch of England has votedto allow women to be con-secrated as bishops. Themeasure needed a twothirds majority in all threevoting bodies of the church:the House of Bishops, theHouse of Clergy, and theHouse of Laity. The churchhas consecrated women aspriests since 1994. The Epis-copal Church, the U.S.-basedbranch of the Anglican Com-munion has had femalebishops since 1989.

A Louisiana chef had areligious experience whenhe cut open eggplant andfound the word “God” spelledout by the seeds inside. LineCook Jermarcus Brady wassautéing vegetables at aBaton Rouge restaurantwhen he sliced the eggplantin half and suddenly sawthe “miraculous image.”Brady, a father of four, saidhis faith had gotten himthrough some tough times,and thought the eggplantrevelation was God’s way ofsaying, “Hey, I’m real.”

Stay awake! A sleepwalk-ing British woman fell 50feet from a hotel window, butsurvived because her sleep-ing body was relaxed whenit hit the ground. AmyWigfull, 24, was on vacation

in Spain when she crawledout a sixth-floor windowwhile still asleep and plum-meted to the sidewalk below.She awoke in hospital twodays later, with multiple bro-ken bones and a puncturedlung. Doctors told Wigfull thatthe fall would have killed herif she’d been awake andtense, rather than asleepand relaxed. “It’s a miracle Isurvived,” she said.

Asia is now the biggestsource of immigrants to theU.S., providing 45 percent ofall new immigrants in 2012,compared with 34 percent forLatin America. Mexico ac-counts for 14 percent of allnew immigrants, down from45 percent in 2000. Indianow accounts for 12 percent,and China for 10 percent.

The real cause of obesity.Overeating may not be thechief cause of America’s obe-sity epidemic. New researchfrom Stanford Medical Schoolindicates the real culprit istoo little exercise — indeed,too little physical activityof any kind. From 1994 to2010, the percentage of adultwomen who did no physicalactivity in their spare timeclimbed from 19 percent tonearly 52 percent, while thenumber of sedentary menincreased from 11 percent toalmost 44 percent.

A separate review of 20long-term studies showedthat obesity can shorten lifeexpectancy by 6 to 14 yearscompared with people of nor-mal weight. Those who areextremely obese also havean increased risk of heartdisease, cancer, and diabe-tes, among other illnesses.

The main cause ofAmerica’s obesity epidemicis that food has become toocheap and easy to get, newresearch has concluded.

Eat more mushrooms! Psy-chedelic mushrooms areknown for sending users onmind-bending drug trips,but the science behindtheir effects has remainedunknown — until know.New research shows thatpsilocybin, a hallucinogen inthe mushrooms, triggersbrain activity similar towhat occurs in dreaming.

Interesting! In its annualtime use survey, Bureau ofLabor Statistics found thaton average Americans spend8.74 hours per day sleeping,5.26 hours per day engagingin leisure activities, andjust 3.46 hours per day doing“work and work-relatedactivities.”

In a recent Gallup poll,more than half of Ameri-cans said the economy, par-

Some memorable showbusiness stuff by the musi-cologist Albert Natale.Marlon Brando, says, “BobHope would attend the open-ing of a supermarket.” AndJim Backus claims CesarRomero would attend theopening of a napkin. Onemore time! Several yearsafter his death in 1951, “TheEddy Duchin Story” wasproduced in Hollywood (1956).Tyrone Power played the“part of Duchin and CarmenCavallaro dubbed in thepiano playing.

Arts Pioneer … JerryBeck opens Revolutions PerMinute at the Clark Galleryand will be on display throughAugust 30th.

Clark Gallery is proud topresent Jerry Beck’s RPM, asprawling and energeticinstallation of drawings,sculpture, paintings, cloth-ing, photography, print-making, and writings. Forover three decades, Beck’spioneering vision reads likea dime store novel that ex-plores the darkened depths ofidentity, history, ethnicity,spirituality, urban and natu-ral environment.

“The American frontiercan be found in any home, onthe street, and in neighbor-

hoods,” says Beck whosince childhood has been fas-cinated by Native Ameri-can culture and philosophy.“Today’s world mimics thegun-slinging Wild West of thepast in which war, violence,racism, sexism, greed, impe-rialism, and the destructionof our natural resources con-tinues jeopardizing our well-being and that of our planet.”

In this exhibition, Beck’senergy covers the map withcathartic, explosive, humor-ous, heart-breaking, and lov-ing gestures. He recon-structs narratives that peelaway fact from fiction, dreamfrom reality, and truth fromlies. This creative process ishis paradigm shift, poetry,activism, and aesthetic re-sponse.

Beck is truly one of NewEngland’s leading visionar-ies whose work is a fan-tastical mix of conceptual art,folk art, and community ac-tivism. Art critic and formerRose Art Museum DirectorCarl Belz once wrote, “Beckis a controversial characterwhose body of art see-sawsback and forth with theenergy of a carnival show-man and quiet contemplationof a lost shaman.”

Jerry Beck is a nationallyrecognized artist, educator,and cultural and civic leader.In 1984, he founded The Re-volving Museum, a nomadicalternative museum thatrevitalizes of under-utilizedpublic spaces such as railroadcars, a Civil War fort on anisland, a baseball field, emptylots, waterways, textile millsand smokestacks involvingthe community in a collabo-rative creative process.

All are welcome to join thegallery for two Beck brunch-time performances on Sun-day, August 17th and August24th.

The gallery is located at145 Lincoln Road, Lincoln,Massachusetts.

Last week I was talkingabout a trip to Puerto Ricothat was supposed to havebeen a Spanish languageseminar, but turned out to bean entire summer’s vacationthat I actually got paid for. SalMeli and I had vacationed inPuerto Rico many times andwere familiar with the capi-tal city, San Juan, and hadseveral friends, many ofwhom were in the entertain-ment business. After meet-ing the headliner of thenightclub we stayed at, thePuerto Rican Sheraton, heasked me to sit in. At the endof the evening, he asked meto join the band on bass gui-tar. His bassist wanted to gohome as he and his wife werehaving marital problems. Iagreed with his terms andwhen the group from NewYork’s Finch College headedback to the mainland, I stayedin San Juan. We played twoshows per night, 6 nights aweek, 9:00 pm to 11: pm and12:00 am to 2:00 am. For thisI received $275.00 a weekplus room and breakfast at thehotel … not bad for the 1960s.

Sal headed back to NewYork with the folks we flewdown with at the end of thatfirst week, but he was backwithin a week on his own. Hewas able to augment his va-cation time with his employerat Polaroid somehow obtain-ing most of the summer off.In the mean time, I settledin working with the KeithPhillips Sextet and loved ev-ery minute of it. During theday, I body surfed in the wavesof the Caribbean or sunnedmyself at the pool, socializingwith the tourists. An enter-tainment critic, Art Bedard,who wrote for a tourist maga-zine, the San Juan Guide,gave us tremendous reviews,and as a result, the mainroom of the hotel was filledwith music lovers 6 nights aweek. Most were workingclass New Yorkers who wouldnot have been able to affordthe winter prices of the hoteldue to the winter monthsbeing the height of the tour-ist season in the Caribbean.It was a carryover from thedays when Cuba was the “inplace” during the winter. Fiveyears earlier, Castro and hisgang had taken over the gov-ernment of Cuba and Ameri-can tourism came to anabrupt end. Puerto Rico tookover the open slot and was puton the map with the hotelcasinos, show rooms and gour-met restaurants. Oh, I can’tforget the hundreds of night-clubs that offered all kinds ofentertainment, both Latinand American.

In the small lounge locatednext to the main room at thehotel was a Jamaican singer.We became friends and to-ward the end of the month,he mentioned that he hadthe following week off. I toldhim that we were going to beoff with pay that week, also.The hotel was bringing in dif-ferent entertainment just forone week and I was thinkingof going home for that week.

The Jamaican gave me an-other offer. It seems that hisbrother owned a two-engine8-passenger airplane andspecialized in taking touriststo Caribbean islands withsmall airplanes. He was tak-ing the same week off andthe two brothers were go-ing island hopping. The folksinger asked if I or any of theband members were inter-ested in joining them. Wewould split the fuel costs andlanding fees equally whichwould make the trip rathercheap. I immediately said Iwould join with them. SalMeli, who was back on theisland with me, joined in,also. None of the other bandmembers were interested, soit was just the four of us.

The next day, the pilotshowed up and was told by hisbrother what was going on.He logged in a flight plan andwe headed to several of theislands south of Puerto Rico.Toward the end of the weekwe headed back to the SanJuan airport where a mes-sage was waiting for the pilot.It seems that he was invitedto a party at an estate inPort au Prince, Haiti, andhe asked if we wanted totag along. Sal and I agreed tojoin the two brothers again,and a flight plan was logged.So, off we went. Now, to getto Haiti from Puerto Rico,we had to fly due west intothe air space of the Domini-can Republic. The island ofHispaniola contains two coun-tries, the Dominican Repub-lic to the east and Haiti to thewest. As I said, to get to Haiti,we had to fly across the D.R.

Once we were in Domini-can airspace, the head windsbecame so strong, the gasgages showed we were be-coming low on fuel. The pilotradioed the control tower atthe Santo Domingo airport inthe capital city. He told theperson on the other end wehad an emergency and had toland. A voice came on witha thick southern Americanaccent, “I’m sorry, y’all can’tland here, go back to yourpoint of origin.” With a slightpanic in his voice, the pilottold the man we didn’t haveenough fuel to go back. Wehad to land to refuel. We weretold to wait and within aminute or two, another Amer-ican voice with a Boston ac-cent, broadcast that we hadto lower our landing gear andwait for a fighter escort tobring us to Santo Domingo.We looked at each other withamazement and curiosity,and a bit of fear in our hearts,might I add.

Within a couple of minutes,two WWII P51 Mustangs withDominican insignias came outof the sun and were almostwing tip to wing tip with us.Each had six 50 caliber ma-chine guns, three in eachwing and those pilots didn’tlook like they wanted to play.We followed further instruc-tions and landed on the then,one runway at the airport.Both sides were lined withsand bags and 50 caliber ma-

chine guns, all of which fol-lowed us as we landed. Whenwe came to a stop, a jeepcame out of a hangar with aDominican army sergeantdriving, an American Marinemajor in the passenger’s seatand a gunman in the backwith a 50 caliber machinegun on a stand, pointing at us.

We were told to exit theplane by the AmericanMarine major who was theman with the southern ac-cent we heard earlier. He andthe driver, the Dominicansergeant searched us andthen the American Marinebegan to yell at us. His thicksouthern accent and the Ja-maican accent of the pilotclashed and neither knewwhat the other was saying. So,we were held at gunpoint.Soon another jeep came outof the hangar with a Domini-can driver and an AmericanMarine colonel next to him.This colonel turned out tobe the man with the Bostonaccent. I volunteered to dothe explaining and the colo-nel believed my story. AfterI explained, I asked whatwas going on. Barnstormingthrough the Caribbean for aweek before this point, wedidn’t look at any newspapers,watch TV, nor listen toany radio broadcasts. It seemsthat the man who had takenover the presidency of RafaelTrujillo after his assassina-tion, Juan Bosch, was oustedfrom office and replacedby a man named JoaquinBalaguer. All Hell broke looseand the government calledWashington for help. Presi-dent Johnson sent in adetachment of U.S. Marinesvia the USS Boxer, an Ameri-can aircraft carrier. Theywere accompanied by theArmy’s 82nd Airborne Divi-sion. American military pres-ence in the Caribbean oftenhelped keep the peace, andour people were there due tothe country heading for amajor revolution.

After my explanation to theMarine Colonel, he believedme and ordered everyone tohelp getting us out of there.I’m out of space and will con-tinue next week. In the mean-time, GOD BLESS AMERICA

On Wednesday, New En-gland Patriot players con-vened for training camp inpreparation for the 2014 sea-son. The NFL season isnearly here. The fresh smellof cut grass and the sound ofbone cracking tackles areboth a sign of a new seasonas well as the unfortunatesign of the slow turn fromsummer into autumn andthe inevitable return of cold,wintery conditions. Yet, asmuch as we love summer,each year, football fansyearn for the first glimpsesof the NFL season.

Following a 2013 campaignthat produced a 12-4 recordand yet another AFC Eastdivision title, Patriots fans’dream of a fourth LombardiTrophy came to an end atSports Authority Field inDenver, Colorado versus theBroncos. Peyton Manningand company were the bet-ter team in the Conferencechampionship game, as theywere throughout the bulk ofthe 2013 season.

The Patriots, without everadmitting this fact, are

clearly going all in for the2014 season. With startingQuarterback Tom Brady, setto turn 37 in less than twoweeks, and with the futureof tight end Rob Gronkowskivery much in doubt after fail-ing to successfully completethe past three NFL seasonsdue to injury, Belichick hadto return to his roots and tryto recreate his bread andbutter of Super Champion-ships past: Defense. Clearly,with an eye on their chiefcompetition to represent theAFC in Super Bowl XLIX inArizona next February,Coach Bill Belichick orches-trated a complete overhaulof his defense, primarily theteam’s secondary, by bring-ing in Cornerbacks DarrelleRevis and Brandon Browner.

The 2014 team is not with-out concern. Controversial

cornerback Alfonzo Dennardfinds himself on the PUP(Physically unable to per-form) list, joined by Secondyear player, Wide ReceiverAaron Dobson, who ifhealthy, figures to be a ma-jor player on offense, particu-larly as a lateral threat.Wideout Jeremy Gallon, De-fensive lineman TommyKelly, and special teamstandout Matt Slater also willnot participate in the earlypart of camp. Of particularconcern, is the Kelly situa-tion. Kelly, who was pro-jected to be a central cog inthe rotation at tackle next toVince Wilfork, would be amajor loss should injurieslimit him for the 2014 sea-son. The bright side is thatneither Gronkowski norWilfork find themselves onthis list. Both players sus-tained season ending inju-ries and were expected to belimited at least for the startof camp.

The dread of summer com-ing to an end is here, but thepromise of another BostonChampionship is calling.

FYI one time traveling toWashington, DC a TSA agentwanted to confiscate animportant medication creamin a jar and I flipped out. Hesaid he would have it“checked” and finally let itthrough. I’ve also noticed theagents “checking” baby for-mula and certain drinks.

It wouldbe impossible, space wise, toenumerate the many initia-tives taken by our publ-ication from its inception as“LA GAZZETTA” to its present-day format as the “POST-GAZETTE” in its 119 yearsof uninterrupted publication.We never missed an issue,even when the going wasvery hard.

The moral reward, overthe years of hard work,came in many ways whenAmerican presidents, sena-tors, congressmen, governorsand other officials praised

the work of the newspaperin times of war and peace.The newspaper had to fightvigorously against all formsof discrimination in employ-ment and immigration laws,yet on the issue of loyalty andpatriotism, there was neverany question.

The Italian immigrantsafter a long period of confu-sion, which was often be-wildering, accepted in fullthe American concept ofschool, church and state andhave become part of thisdemocratic society, bringingto it all the qualities theItalians always possessed asbuilders, dreamers, organiz-ers, fighters, artists, inspiredteachers and defenders ofItalo-American ideals.

Time for SomeTexas Style Baseball

Last week I spent a greattime enjoying Texas as myvacation oasis place onceagain. I have never had abad Texas vacation. Theweather is always hot andsunny and the pool nice andcool. Inside some great a.c.going on. The food, did I tellyou about the food? It isgreat.

Last week the All-Stargame was played, but look-ing at my Austin AmericanStatesman, I noticed thatClay shutout the HoustonAstros by 11-0. Buchholzpitched surprisingly well fora change.

Texas has Worst MLBTeam at Break

Meanwhile, the TexasRangers who thought theyhad a great shot this yearin the AL West were atthe break, the worst teamin Major League Baseball.Eight straight losses to closeout the first half. On a daythat reached 96 degrees, theAngels 2-3-4 hitters, MikeTrout, Albert Pujols and JoshHamilton, went 7 for 13 withsix RBIs in the 10-7 win overTexas.

Great Rangers Prospecton the Horizon

The Rangers have a greatnear-future prospect in left-handed 20-year-old Joey

Gallo. He is currently play-ing with Double A Frisco andhas hit 31 home runs and 73RBIs in only 85 games thusfar.

While Austin is aFootball Town

There is …One Minor League team

that baseball fans in andaround Austin can root for isthe Round Rock Express.Right now they are a .500team winning their lastgame before the break, beat-ing the Nashville Sounds6-4 and are now 48-47. Likeour own Paw Sox down inPawtucket, the games areexciting and the price isright.

JOHN CAMERON:John, a resident of Great Britain, is a former

amateur boxer turned author. His most recentwork, “Redemption: The Life & Death Of RockyMarciano”, is available on Amazon

God’s in My Corner:A Portrait of an American Boxer

by “Tiger” Ted LowryIn this autobiographical

work we are taken on ajourney through the re-markable life of Ted Lowry,a perennial “club fighter”who plied his trade in theaftermath of the secondgreat war that engulfed theworld. He never ascended toworld championship honors,

nor did he find himself courted by the deni-zens of the darkest game and placed on thepath to glory, it was merely his lot in life toturn up at the proverbial “drop of a hat” andfight whomever was placed in front of him.He won some, lost some, drew others. Yetthe names on his list of adversaries runslong and deep, including the future heavy-weight champion of the world RockyMarciano. Lowry was a special fighter, aspoiler, a man who had the tools to turn iton and ruin a record, take a career apart,as he almost did to the unbeaten Brocktonfighter when they first met in 1949, thereare still those today, those in the know, whobelieve “Tiger” Ted should have walked awayfrom that first meeting the victor. But thisis more than just the story of that fight andhis career, it is a story of overcoming ad-versity, of facing up to life and emerging tri-umphant.

The Sweet Scienceby A.J. Liebling

Everything Shakespeareby Cork Milner

This book is in depth andinformative in regard to theAll Time Bard. It entails adeep rundown of charac-ters and plays and also givesan account of his lifetimesurroundings and associ-ates inclusive of pros andcons about the great writerShakespeare. It no doubt proves he was whohe was and he did what he did. I have alwayshad a deep interest and respect for Will andthis writing solidifies my thoughts and BenJohnson’s tribute — he was not of an agebut of all time.

Hot Shots and Heavy Hitsby Paul Doyle

Boston’s Combat Zone and how he coped witha difficult job. He not only got the pushersoff the street but he helped those he couldand saved many lives in the process. Know-ing Paul as I do I appreciate and respect hisfriendship and sincerity.

“A Flame of Pure Fire:Jack Dempsey and the Roaring ’20s”

by Roger KahnAs a neophyte to both

the history and practiceof boxing, “A Flame ofPure Fire” was a revela-tion in both depart-ments. Kahn paints anincredibly life-like por-trait of the man whowas at once a savage

f i g h t e rwith anof fensivestyle and a gentleman out-side of the ring (the momentwhen he comforts Willardafter delivering what likelyremains the worst beatingin the history of the sport isvery touching). The story isset against the backdrop ofindustrialization, the bur-geoning city, Prohibition,bootlegging, and the erawhere prizefighters wereheld in higher esteem thanany other celebrities in thecountry. The book also dis-cusses technique and tipsquoted from Dempsey him-self that anyone new (or old)to the Sweet Science wouldfind useful.

He was there for theBruins’ great run in the2013-2014 regular season.He was a bit under the lime-light but played a significant,if understated, role in theteam’s successful quest toamass the most points inthe six-month journey thatended with the Black andGold capturing the Pres-ident’s Trophy.

That, of course, securedthe home ice advantage forall four rounds of the playoffs— which unfortunately wasnot needed given the B’searly exit in the secondround.

But he was there — on thebench — just like TuukkaRask was three seasonsearlier when Tim Thomasdazzled the NHL with his per-formance in the Stanley CupFinal.

He is the Forgotten One.He is Chad Johnson, thebackup goalie for the Blackand Gold who performedadmirably in the secondaryrole — so much so that 34 ofthose 117 points that theBruins piled up during theregular season came withhim in net.

That’s right. Johnson sawaction in 27 regular seasongames — one third of the B’sschedule and came awaywith a stellar 17-4-3 mark togo with a 2.10 goals againstaverage and a .925 savepercentage.

Just how good was that?Well, when the smoke hadcleared on the regular sea-son Johnson ranked sixth inthe NHL in both GAA andsave percentage. Not bad atall for someone who was aback-up. But, of course, Raskwas No. 1 in the entireleague, winning the VezinaTrophy as the best goal-tender of the regular season.

That meant that whenRask did not play, the B’swent from using the topgoalie in the league to No. 6— not a bad swap for a nightand probably one of the mainreasons the B’s wound up ontop of the entire league inthe regular season.

On the nights thatJohnson did play, B’s headcoach Claude Julien wasoften effusive in his praise,realizing that he had twosolid goaltenders on his ros-ter, with barely a drop-off intalent when Johnson took tothe ice.

But now he’s gone, leavingTuukka essentially alone inthe crease unless NiklasSvedberg, the new desig-nated backup, can comethrough. The 24-year-oldplayed 45 games with theProvidence Bruins last year,posting a 25-14-4 mark with

a 2.63 GAA and a .910 savepercentage. But he has onlyplayed one game in the NHL.So essentially he is some-one without a record in thebig time.

Chad Johnson’s hockeyodyssey began in his home-town of Calgary, Alberta andgradually extended acrossthe geographical extremes ofAmerica — stretching fromAlaska to Portland, Maine atone point. Through hockey,he was able to receive a col-lege education and travel theimpressive breadth of theUnited States.

Johnson played goal allfour years that he was a stu-dent at the University ofAlaska-Fairbanks. In thespring of his senior year(2008-2009) he was namedthe Central CollegiateHockey Association’s Playerof the Year on the strengthof a stellar 1.66 GAA and anexcellent .940 save percent-age. He was also a finalist forthe Hobey Baker Award,emblematic of the bestplayer in college hockey.

Johnson had actually beendrafted by the PittsburghPenguins (125th overall) backin 2006 but soon after hegraduated he was traded tothe New York Rangers. Theyassigned him to their AHLfranchise in Hartford whereJohnson toiled for threeyears, occasionally gettingthe call to appear in a halfdozen NHL games duringthat span.

Becoming a free agent, hethen signed with Phoenix,which promptly sent himback to the AHL — this timewith the Portland Pirates inMaine. In 170 AHL gameswith Hartford and PortlandJohnson compiled a 78-70-12 mark with a 2.66 GAAand a .909 save percentage.

On July 5, 2013 Johnson,a free agent once again,signed a one-year deal withthe Bruins. It was his firstfull-time NHL job and itcame with the opportunity toplay for one of the best teamsin hockey. It’s been said thata rising tide lifts all boats.Johnson certainly elevatedhis game while playing forthe B’s.

We feel that because of hisadmirable service last sea-son, he should have beenbrought back. He was a goodfit for the B’s and Julien wasdefinitely impressed by hisperformances.

But he’s gone — to the NewYork Islanders for moremoney (about $1.3 millionper season) to a team wherehe will still be the backuprather than the starting
