Although Grenier found the song, which she did not name, innocuous, her daugh- ter pointed out that it was actuallyfilled withdouble en- tendresandhiddenmeanings. "Whose judgment is it going toberegardingthe standard?" asked Grenier. The superintendent also wondered about drivers who prefer not having music on during the bus rides. "Many drivers are in favor of pro- grammed radio," she said, "but there are somewho don't like to have it on." With those issues in mind, Grenier recommended to the committee that the issue of bus radio be tabled until next school year, allowing more time to conduct research. "I can see both sides of this very clearly,"she said. "There are positives and there are concerns." "There are too many unan- swered questions," Grenier said. "Too many systemic un- answered questions. I am not sure we have clear guidelines and at thistimeIfeel there are too many unknowns." Committee member Dr. Debra Dagwan expressed support for Grenier'sposition. "She has done her homework on both sides of this situa- tion," she said. "It would be difficult to choose the music because people have different values. I amin support of giv- ing this a little more time to get a grasp on it." While committee vice chairman Patrick Murphy maintained his interest in the idea of bus radio, he agreed with Grenier that there were questions that needed answering. "How does the school district han- dle advertising, especially in terms of trying to maximize revenue opportunities?" he asked. "It does need to be discussed in more detail by this committee." For the 2006-2007 school year,busradioisoffthe air,but willcontinuedto be discussed and researched by the school committee as a possibility for the following year. "I am committed to exploring the notion," said Grenier. "I do think it has merit." Busradio silenced... CONTINUED FROM PAGE A:1 his attention in May. He said he's witnessed the fueling of watercraft at the ramp, open alcoholicbeverage containers, as well as general conflicts arising from the high-use ramp and the adjacent public beach. The ramp sees a lot of ac- tivity both on weekends and during the after-work hours on weekdays. Rugo said that PWCswould still be allowed on the lake, but access would be denied via the town ramp. "It becomes a personal watercraft party place," he said. "It's not about banning them on the lake. It's about the safety of the beach." Rugo said that he'sworked with members of the Wequa- quet LakeProtective Associa- tion (WLPA) on the language, which mirrors a by-law ad- opted by Harwich for its Long Pond access points. The town council has tak- en arun at banning personal watercraft on Wequaquet in the past , but opted against it. A proposed ban was unan- imously rejected in 1997 , but a "Jet Ski" committee to look at issues surround- ing personal watercraft on the lake was formed. The committee last met on the subject about five years ago, but no proposed legislation was forwarded for council consideration. The proposed language reads as follows: "No person shall fuel, launch, retrieve or otherwise operate any personal watercraft (vessel) propelled by awaterjet pump from the Townproperty at 460 Shootflying Hill Road." The WLPA has advocated greater regulation of personal watercraft, if not an outright ban,onthelakefor morethan a decade. The lake also lacks regular police patrols this year, Rugo said,whichhe doesnot believe helps incontrolling the situa- tion. He saidhe'sworkingwith the town manager and police chief to address that. The ordinance was to be introduced this week and referred to a public hearing on Aug. 17. PWC ban sought at Wequaquet ramp... CONTINUED FROM PAGE A:1 artist Dave Bolton who showed her some of his glassworks, inspiring her to delve into the medium. Samuell spent "30 years work- ing with traditional stained glass, until one day some broken bottles changed everything. "I had some ! bottles that I had left outside in the winter that had broken," she said. "I had thrown them in a box. One day I put the pieces in my kiln. I started playing with these pieces and a win- dow happened. " A window is a sizeable piece of artwork that is comprised of random pieces of glass that Samuell has col- lected in her travels , or even around her own home. Pieces contain bits of kiln-melted broken bottles, beveled glass, jeweled glass, and occasion- ally whimsical pieces with curlicues or swirls. "All of these odd pieces lay about and I bring them together in expression," said Samuell. She has used old dessert cups, their stems broken off, saved for later use, as well as wine glasses and even a few Nantucket Nectars bottles. Such recycling was ingrained in Samuell, a single mother to sons Aaron and Brian Vanderbeek. "For years I had to do traditional stained glass in order to make a living and until my sons graduated from col- lege," she said. "After that responsi- bility, a lot of pressure was off me." The release of pressure allowed Samuell to fully explore her cre- ativity, a bonus for those fortunate enough to have her pieces adorning their homes. Like the Cape that she is so fond of, Samuell's pieces evoke an oce- anic essence, particularly those in shades of blue and green. While Samuell is employed at Trader Joe's in Hyannis, it is the time spent working in her gallery workshop that she anticipates. "My design tool is a hammer," she said, noting that along with house- hold goods, she also incorporates damaged glassware from her other art lines into her work. Pieces are melted in her kiln, which lends them an array of unusual shapes and textures. The randomness of her work ap- peals to her. "I kind of have an idea how I'm going to start," said Samu- ell, "but I never know how I'm going to finish." Some windows are sooth- ing to look at, while others are filled with energy. All of her pieces evoke joy. Samuell also creates her own line of glass jewelry made from dichroic glass, a special type that offers explosive tints and colors, and fused glass, a method that involves layer- ing colors and shapes. Although Samuell offers her own works for sale in her gallery, she also features the works of many other talented colleagues from across the US and Cape Cod. There are wind chimes made from old silver teapots and flatware , blown glass vases, and a variety of sculpture , just to list a few. When Samuell needs a break from glassware, she enjoys downtime with her husband, Charles Corey; their Golden Retriever, Marshall Dylan; and their seven alpacas, including new baby Comanche Thunder. The alpacas, Kip, Coretta , Le Baron , Bryony, Reina de la Noche , and Vic- tor Ferro, happily reside in their own fenced-in area next to the gallery. "I donate their wool to the Cape Cod Spinners Guild," said Samuell. Because glasswork brings Samu- ell joy, striking a striking a balance in life comes naturally. As she said, "From the fist time I picked up a glass cutter, it was like I was meant to do this." - A touch of glass at local gallery...
