When Joe Breen and Sherri Vogt teamed up last year to draft legislation that would change Woodstock Academy’s Board of Trustees, Mike Alberts and Tony Guglielmo stopped them.

Mike knows that a strong, vibrant Woodstock Academy is good for his towns. That’s why he blocked the Breen/Vogt initiative and prevented it from leaving the Education Committee. Instead he offered to mediate the issue.

Backdoor politics is unacceptable when our children’s education is at stake.

For an independent Woodstock Academy and open government, vote for Mike.

’09 Jaguar XF Supercharge Combines Power with Beauty for an Exhilarating Ride

The 2009 Jaguar XF is a stunningly beautiful replacement for the Jaguar S-Type, which had a propensity for making Buicks look cool.

A true sign of this car’s perform- ance is the fact I could leave the trans- mission in “D” and let the XF do all the work. I had no desire to use the paddle shifters. I also didn’t take Auto Review advantage of the multiple transmis- sion modes via JaguarDrive Control, which matches throttle progression, DSC thresholds and shift strategy to conditions, including Sport and Winter modes. I was just having too much fun driving this car. Of course, all of this fun does come with a price at the pumps. Sure, gas prices have been dropping as I write this (even below $3), but this cat still drinks premium fuel.
