Pothole patching underway These photos were sent to The Westfield News of a rather large pot hole on Campanelli Dr. that the Westfield Department of Public Works staff was deployed to patch. While this year seems to be exceptionally bad for potholes, the winter season’s dramatic fluctuations of temperature in combination with the rain and snow fall then melting is causing more driving con- cerns than normal. The City DPW is expected to be out in force repairing throughout the month of March. (Photos submitted)

www.sarahgillett.org PAGE 4 - WEDNESDAY, MARCH 6, 2019 WWW.THEWESTFIELDNEWS.COM THE WESTFIELD NEWS COMMENT LETTER TO THE EDITOR To the Editor: Domestic Violence As we have witnessed once again in recent weeks, domestic violence happens in rural communities and sometimes results in serious injury, death or suicide. Our heartfelt condolences go out to the families and friends directly impacted by these recent events, and to our entire community because domestic violence hurts us all. Domestic violence is complicated and few people are able to leave abusive relationships without help. These relationships are not about straightforward one-time incidents of abuse. The abuse is almost always part of an on-going strategy designed to establish control over a partner. It usually unfolds unevenly, with the abuse interspersed among long periods of peace. It can start out with subtle controlling behaviors or minor humiliations, and unfold over years during which children are born, houses are bought, lives are built, and promises to change are repeatedly offered. When someone decides whether to leave an abusive relationship they are often weighing painful trade-offs. They want to leave Call 572-3999 to leave your comment. the abuse, but do they have anywhere to go? Will their children need to leave their community school? Will their faith commu- nity blame them for breaking up the family?

Is there any possibility that the relationship can be restored to what it once was or once promised? Will anyone believe them about the abuse? Abusive people often have charming qualities and are well liked. People often find it hard to believe they were even capable of harming the person they profess to love. It becomes easy to see why it is hard to leave without help.

Cohen also testified publicly before the House Oversight and Reform Committee, where he called Trump a con man, a cheat and a racist. He pleaded guilty last year to lying to Rep.

DeBrusk stole the puck deep in Carolina’s zone and made a centering pass to David Krejci for the game-winner 1:46 into over- time as the Bruins beat the Hurricanes 4-3 on Tuesday night. “He just put it on my tape,” Krejci said. “J.D. made it pretty easy for me.” Krejci assisted on DeBrusk’s goal in the second period and both finished with a goal and an assist. Chris Wanger and Patrice Bergeron also scored for the Bruins, who rallied from a 2-0 deficit and have earned at least a point in 17 straight games. “We weren’t really playing our style and kind of playing into Carolina’s hands,” DeBrusk said of Boston’s slow start Tuesday. Sebastian Aho scored twice for Carolina. Justin Williams also scored for the Hurricanes, and Curtis McElhinney finished with 34 saves. The Hurricanes had won five straight, but still salvaged a point after entering the night in playoff position at No. 6 in the Eastern Conference standings. “At the end of the day we were up and we’ve got to find a way to not let them get back into the game,” Carolina coach Rod Brind’Amour said. Brind’Amour said mistakes by his club helped lead to each of Boston’s goals, includ- ing Bergeron’s short-handed tally 2:45 into the third that put the Bruins up 3-2. “They’re good enough to get their own offense. We don’t need to give it to them and that’s the disturbing part,” Brind’Amour said.

It will last longer, also work for teams. and you can buy one piece at a time. -- Heloise She will be involved in player evaluation, roster construction, technological advancement and health and performance, the Mets said. Mendoza, a member of the U.S. Olympic softball team in 2004 and 2008, did not address any potential conflict of interest — working for a team while simultaneously commentating on all clubs. In the team statement, Mendoza thanked ESPN and Disney for their “understanding and confidence as I balance both tasks moving forward.” ESPN spokesman Josh Krulewitz wrote in an email to The Associated Press there are “numerous examples across networks of these type of arrangements where commentators work closely with teams, and we will be fully transparent about Jessica’s relationship with the Mets.” He added: “We have complete faith in her ability as a leading MLB voice for ESPN.” Krulewitz said Mendoza was not available for comment to the AP but likely will be available later this week. MLB Network announcer Bob Costas, a winner of the Hall of Fame’s Frick Award, said Mendoza’s role in game broadcasts is not the same as it would be on a news show such as ESPN’s “Outside the Lines” or HBO’s “Real Sports.” “I think at least some people in the media will watch more closely for traces of conflict of interest and she can dispel that,” he said. “The proof is in the performance.” Team announcers long have worked for national networks, such as Vin Scully, Tim McCarver and Joe Buck. But they did not report to general managers. Before nationally televised games, managers routinely give private briefings to the network broadcasters, and some might be more reticent to disclose information to an employee of an opponent. “I think perhaps a more interesting thing would be: Is the person who works for a team equally critical when called over of managerial moves, player performance, did they or did they not make this trade, they did or did not make this free agent sign- ing?” Costas said. “Are the equally even-handed in their praise and criticism? That’s probably more important than any pro- prietary information.” Former Tigers star Kirk Gibson, a commentator for Fox Sports Detroit since 2015, was hired by the Tigers this offseason as a special assistant to the general manager and will remain in his broadcast role. “I have no problem with that stuff,” Detroit manager Ron Gardenhire said. “They’re not going to hold a gun to me and get information that they probably shouldn’t have. They’re just going to come and do their job, and that’s easy enough.” THE WESTFIELD NEWS WWW.THEWESTFIELDNEWS.COM WEDNESDAY, MARCH 6, 2019 - PAGE 13
