my ranking of the alex rider original series (stormbreaker through scorpia rising) from ‘book i least enjoy rereading’ to ‘book i most enjoy rereading’ let’s goooo
spoilers for all 9 books under the cut
9. Ark Angel
...He went to space. He went to space. Also the entire plot could have been avoided if Drevin had actually bothered to provide a photograph of his son. I’m sure he had one. I still like this book but it’s literally so insane that I just don’t know what to do with it.
It is however really funny that Webber just goes and gives a speech insulting this super high-profile ecoterrorist group and acts like it’s no big deal and then they kill him. Shock of shocks.
8. Skeleton Key
Okay, points to this book for terrifying the shit out of me. God damn it does that shark scene scare me. Also, points for making me feel a little bit bad for a man who wants to nuke his own country because he thinks it will fix the place up. I’m still not entirely sure how that’s supposed to work, but that’s probably a good thing. I feel like understanding his thought process would say bad things about me. Still, I actually did feel sorry for him, if only a little. Dude was clearly mentally unstable and I doubt his son’s death helped at all. I also got sad about what happened to Carver and Troy. (Yeah, yeah, I’m a cringe fail American who has the American release. So sue me.) What a nightmare that must’ve been to endure... Otherwise, though, I’m not super into this book. The opening is just kind of meh and the way it leads into the rest of the plot seems a little bit unbelievable. Also, this might be an unpopular opinion, but Sabina annoys me. I would not get along with her at all and I can’t imagine her as a girlfriend. Skeleton Key does, however, absolutely excel at the emotional scenes.
Also, why are all the spy agencies so comfortable with sending in a 14-year-old? Especially when they outright admit that the other attempts have all died horribly? Bureaucracy’s a bitch.
7. Point Blank
Boo, Dr. Grief! Boo! We hate your white supremacy! I’m so glad you got a snowmobile to the face, you deserved it. (Perks of books written by Jewish people--we aren’t afraid to give the neo-Nazis an unpleasant death.) Anyway, this book definitely isn’t bad, but I wouldn’t really say it stands out in the series. It definitely does hammer home the point of just how trapped Alex is, since MI6 isn’t going to just let him go after one mission, and let’s face it, the plot with the clones is creepy as hell, if highly improbable. But I’m largely just here to see the neo-Nazi get snowmobiled. That’s right, I just completely changed the definition of a pre-established word. I’m a rebel.
Also, I hate Fiona Friend so much and overall think she just didn’t need to be in the book, but the line about ‘I’d rather kiss the horse’ made me laugh so hard. Alex, you sass.
6. Snakehead
Okay, let’s talk about how genius the plan in this book is. I love it! I love how Yu wants to kill the people involved in the peace conference without making them into martyrs, so he comes up with this whole elaborate plan to stage a natural disaster. It’s incredible. This dude was thinking so far ahead. And he would’ve gotten away with it, too, if it weren’t for that meddling kid... But anyway, I don’t see a lot of books where the villain really acknowledges that killing their enemies could just cause more problems for them via turning them into martyrs for a cause. Also, the way he’s so polite and soft-spoken while also being a complete monster... This book genuinely gives me chills. Extra bonus points for the part in the hospital, the absolute nightmare of having all your organs slowly removed and sold off and everyone around you is being so nice about it? ‘Oh, don’t worry, Alex, it won’t be so bad. Here, take your medicine. Do you need anything?’ Literally just. What the fuck.
Also Ash can fucking fight me. You put your own godson in horrible danger on purpose! You killed your best friend! Bastard.
...And just in case the book wasn’t disturbing enough, Yu’s fate at the end lives in my mind rent-free and I think about it on a concerningly regular basis considering that the chances of that happening to me are so low they’re practically in the negatives. Damn you, Horowitz.
I would also be remiss if I did not mention just how much I love the tagline ‘once bitten, twice spy’.
5. Crocodile Tears
Ah yes, the book that kickstarted my drift away from the church... I kid, of course. I drifted away from the church for completely separate reasons. But Desmond McCain is always going to scare the shit out of me. The ability to kill countless innocent people while blissfully quoting Bible verses (that he takes wildly out of context and uses for his own self-serving means) is... well, I could actually say a lot about what that reminds me of, but I’m here to rate books, not religion. Moving on. This book has some really stellar antagonists, and the plot is chilling in a way that feels a lot more realistic than most of the other books. Even if some of it is a bit farfetched (sabotaging a nuclear power plant? Really?), the idea of using disasters for your own profit... well. I’m sure I don’t need to elaborate on why that is so believable. The Poison Dome is also a really cool and chilling scene--even Alex, who has the luck of the devil, can’t get out of that one unscathed. Further scares come in with the fate of Harold Bulman--imagine having your entire existence wiped and your identity changed while you were asleep! The breakdown he has over it is almost enough to make me feel sorry for him, even though he was ready to exploit a teenager and make his life a living hell just to turn a profit. Note the word almost.
Also. The opening makes me cry. Specifically the line talking about how Ravi’s kids would ‘never meet Mickey Mouse’. I lose my goddamn mind every single time I read it. That little personal touch turns the scene from a statistic to a tragedy. Once again: Damn you, Horowitz.
4. Stormbreaker
Yeah, this one gets the special cover shot. And why not? What we are looking at here is the birth of a legend. Move the fuck over, James Bond, Alex Rider is on the scene now. Anyway, yeah, this book is pretty damn spectacular. It has its stumbles, but as the first book in a series, that’s to be expected. Still, it pulls you in from quite literally the first line and keeps you going right up until the end. (If you came here from my post of memes, you know how much the line ‘Killing is for grownups, and you’re still a child’ destroys me.) It has the debut of much-beloved characters such as, of course, Alex--but also Jack Starbright, and of course, the best MI6 agent of them all, which is to say Smithers. Hell, even Yassen Gregorovich, especially once you get through Russian Roulette... Man, that was a rough one.
Seriously, though. This is a really good book. The scene with the Portuguese man-o’-war still gives me the chills to think about. (Have you ever looked up pictures of those things? They’re beautiful, but holy shit will they make you regret being born. Nature is funny like that.)
We also get the introduction of, of course, Alex’s patented sass (his response to Sayle saying he relates to the man-o’-war is HILARIOUS) and we get the inherent humor of Alex screwing up an alias one time and then just going by Alex for the rest of the series so he doesn’t do that again. Really, kid, I know you’re not a trained spy or anything but did you never play pretend growing up? Ever? You can’t pretend your name is Felix for a little while? That sounds like a you problem.
3. Scorpia Rising
I distinctly remember when this book came out, actually. I was on vacation at the time, and I remember my brother annoying the hell out of the poor workers at a bookstore we frequented there to see if/when they were going to get it in. They did, finally, and we bought it immediately, and I was of course absolutely desperate to read it. He got to read it first, though. -_-
This is a great book, an absolute emotional rollercoaster all the way through. The way Blunt tricks Alex back into service by staging a shooting was exactly the kind of cold, brutal behavior I’d expect from him. Seeing Julius come back was shocking, but very exciting, too. And Razim makes an incredibly chilling villain, with his absolute disregard for human life and his desire to measure pain. Also, seeing Smithers’s house was so much fun. Smithers in this book was just really fun in general, but he’s really fun in every book, so... nothing unusual there. But also, I want an unwelcome mat. Please?
2. Eagle Strike
‘But Penny,’ you might ask, ‘why is this book so high on your list? It has so much of Sabina in it, and you said she annoys you.’ That is true. What does not annoy me, however, is basically the entire rest of the book. I love the tense opening, and then reading through Alex’s real-life ‘playthrough’ of Feathered Serpent is still one of my favorite scenes. Cray is absolutely incredible as a villain, with the way that he truly believes in his cause--which is undoubtedly a good one! Yet the extremes to which he will go for that cause, and the fact that he very nearly succeeds, are what elevate him to one of the most dangerous villains in the series. That scene with Charlie Roper and the nickels is something I can never seem to stop thinking about. Actually, I think about it basically whenever I think about large amounts of money paid in small increments...
Also, I really enjoy how he gets into the whole plot in the first place, and I really enjoy Smithers saying ‘ah, fuck it’ and helping him out anyway. Go, Smithers. You once again prove me right in saying that you’re the coolest adult in MI6.
The revelation that Yassen knew Alex’s father is one that absolutely blew my mind first time around. The way his life was threaded into the lives of the Rider family--he worked with John Rider, was saved by him, killed Ian Rider, and then died for refusing to kill Alex Rider--wow. Wow. It gets to me. It really gets to me. This book is a masterpiece. I heard that it’s going to be what the second season of the TV series is based off of, and I’m so hyped for that. We love to see it, we really do.
1. Scorpia
I don’t believe anyone who says this book didn’t get to them at all. I just think they are lying. I don’t think it’s humanly possible to not be affected by this book. God. Just thinking about it reminds me of why I don’t think it’s possible. I mean, come on. We get all this backstory about Alex’s parents, we get tricked along with him into thinking MI6 killed his father, then bam, that was a lie, and Alex may have just fucked himself over big time. Also, that plot is terrifying! (And I bet anti-vaxxers had a field day with it, huh.) Julia Rothman is a really great antagonist, one of the only ones who didn’t go and explain her plan in great detail to Alex--the fact that she didn’t actually being a plot point was something I personally found pretty clever. In general, this book is... I tend to hate when people say they ‘can’t put it down’ because it’s usually an obvious exaggeration, but that really is how I feel reading it.
And again. If that ending didn’t get to you... Well, I just think you are lying.

19 celebrities who made victorious career comebacks, Defence Online
Some stars leave the spotlight and return later for victorious comebacks.
This includes actors like Winona Ryder, who was hiatus from Hollywood following drug and theft scandals, but is now known for her “Stranger Things” role.
Singers like Kesha and Shania Twain have also had career comebacks.
Visit INSIDER.com for more stories.
The careers of celebrities can be tumultuous.
Some stars leave Hollywood of their own accord, others disappear after worrying public incidents, and some fade after scandals. When that happens, returning to the spotlight isn’t always easy. Some never do. But that doesn’t mean it’s not possible.
Here are 19 celebrities who have had career comebacks.
Editor’s Note: A warning that this article contains descriptive language that could be triggering for anyone struggling with or recovering from substance abuse.
“Stranger Things” marked Winona Ryder’s comeback after a hiatus from Hollywood following drug and theft scandals.

Winona Ryder’s career was in full swing during the late ’80s and ’90s. From classics such as “Beetlejuice” and “Heathers” to “Edward Scissorhands” and “The Age of Innocence,” Ryder was keeping busy. But in 2001, the actress was arrested on charges of shoplifting and being in possession of illegal prescription drugs and her career stalled.
She spoke with Time about how a brief break from acting following the incident affected her career.
“I took some years off, and I didn’t realize that was very dangerous in terms of my career,” she said. “I was constantly being told, ‘You have to keep working so you stay relevant.’ When I was ready to come back, I was like, ‘Oh, where did everyone go?’ A lot of actors have ups and downs. I think mine were – people might see them as awful – but I learned, and I appreciated the time away.”
Now with “Stranger Things,” she’s a leading lady once more.
Robert Downey Jr. was arrested multiple times in the ’90s and did a stint in rehab, but now he’s a leading man in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

Robert Downey Jr.’s career took off in the ’80s, and he eventually earned an Oscar nomination for 1992’s “Chaplin.” But his successful trajectory hit a snag after a string of run-ins with the law and time in rehab.
In 1996, authorities caught him with an unloaded gun, heroine, and cocaine in his car. A few months later, he was cited for trespassing after passing out inside his neighbor’s home. He was arrested multiple times, spent time in prison, was in and out of rehab, and was written out of “Ally McBeal.” But Downey Jr. has been sober since around 2003, and his career has picked up.
He played Sherlock Holmes in two movies, he earned an Oscar nomination for “Tropic Thunder,” he’s been dominating the box office as Iron Man since 2008, and he’s showing no signs of slowing down.
After a string of worrying public incidents in 2007, Britney Spears rose again and her career is now better than ever.

Britney Spears was a pop icon with five albums under her belt when her life began to spiral. Spears lost custody of her children to ex-husband Kevin Federline and was in the public eye for a string of incidents – including shaving her head in public, driving with her son on her lap, and attacking paparazzi with an umbrella. Spears was admitted to UCLA Medical Center’s psychiatric hospital in January 2008.
She was released five days later and then released her sixth album, “Circus,” later that year to positive reviews and chart-topping success. Since then, she has held a Las Vegas residency and released three more albums. She was honored with GLAAD’s Vanguard Award in 2018 for her support of the LGBTQ+ community.
Kesha overcame a restrictive record deal and legal battle to launch her comeback album, “Rainbow.”

After five years without a new album, Kesha released “Rainbow,” her third album, in 2017 to praise and celebration. The powerful album was the result of a years-long legal battle with Dr. Luke, her producer, over allegations of sexual assault and physical and emotional abuse. She was stuck in a five-record contract and couldn’t release music outside of the label.
The legal battle has not ended, but she’s touring, performing, and making music once again.
Neil Patrick Harris broke out as a child star in “Doogie Howser, M.D.” but his career stumbled until a quick cameo in “Harold and Kumar Go to White Castle” changed perceptions and brought him into the forefront.

Teenage Neil Patrick Harris broke out as the star of “Doogie Howser M.D.” in the early ’90s, but he couldn’t mimic the success in the years that followed.
Finally in 2004, he made a cameo as a fictionalized version of himself in the stoner comedy “Harold and Kumar Go to White Castle.” He followed that up with the role of Barney on “How I Met Your Mother,” which earned him four straight Emmy nominations, and his career has boomed.
Martha Stewart went from business mogul to prison and is now the host of a TV show with Snoop Dogg.

With a successful catering company, a series of best-selling books, and a magazine, Martha Stewart was a business mogul worth millions. But all of that came crashing down when she was charged with insider trading and found guilty on all counts, including charges of obstruction of justice and conspiracy. She served five months in prison.
After she got out of prison, Stewart managed to work her way back as a popular personality and make her company profitable once again. She even has a show with Snoop Dogg, “Martha & Snoop’s Potluck Dinner Party,” on VH1.
Nicole Richie was best known for “The Simple Life” before a series of arrests dominated headlines. Now, she’s turned to acting and designing.

Nicole Richie spent some time in rehab before filming “The Simple Life,” a reality show with Paris Hilton. The show rocketed the two to stardom the girls had never had before.
That all abruptly came to an end when Richie was arrested after driving down the wrong side of the highway and failing a sobriety test. She was sentenced to four days in jail and three years’ probation for the incident.
She is now married, has two kids, launched a successful fashion line, and starred on the NBC sitcom “Great News” until its cancellation in 2018.

Matthew McConaughey broke out in Hollywood thanks to “Dazed and Confused.” But by the early 2000s, he was being typecast in romantic comedies. But in 2013, McConaughey’s rise began again in what The New Yorker writer Rachel Syme dubbed the “McConaissance.”
He was nominated for an Emmy for “True Detective,” won an Oscar for “Dallas Buyers Club,” and starred in “The Wolf of Wall Street.”
Dave Chappelle is making movies and doing stand up comedy again after walking away from his famous Comedy Central show.

Chappelle was a well-known actor and comedian through the ’90s and was the star of his own sketch show on “Comedy Central.” But when “Chappelle’s Show” was supposed to be heading into its third season, Chappelle walked away in 2005. He popped up to occasionally perform stand-up, but he largely stayed out of the spotlight.
He starred in “Chi-raq” in 2015, his first movie role in almost 10 years. Then he made his “Saturday Night Live” hosting debut in 2016, which was followed by four specials released on Netflix in 2017. He won a Grammy in 2018 for his first two. He also starred alongside Bradley Cooper and Lady Gaga in “A Star Is Born.”
Drew Barrymore hasn’t exactly been out of the spotlight, but her career has had its ups and downs.

Drew Barrymore broke out as a child actor in “E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial,” but her early teens were troubled. She spent two stints in rehab – one for drug and alcohol abuse and the other for a suicide attempt – all before she was 15. Because of her reputation, she struggled to find work.
In an interview with Movieline when she was 17, the actress said, “I had two, three years of casting directors telling me I’d never work again in this town … That s–t- only made me angrier, made me put that much more into my work … And, through pure ambition, ‘I showed those sons of b—es that I can do it.’ Success is the best revenge in the world. And I’m back.”
She continued to act, but it was 1998’s “The Wedding Singer” that brought her back to the forefront. She followed it up with movies like “Charlie’s Angels” and “50 First Dates.” Now, she’s the star of Netflix’s “Santa Clarita Diet.”
Paula Abdul was a pop star in the ’80s and ’90s, but her career had some setbacks, until she rose again thanks to “American Idol.”

Paula Abdul was best known as a choreographer and pop star in the 1980s and early ’90s. She had six No. 1 singles on the Billboard charts and won a Grammy for “Opposites Attract,” but her music career stalled after an accident left her in pain.
In an interview with Forbes in 2017, the musician said, “I had to leave the music business … I crash landed in a plane when I was on tour 26 years ago. I went through a lot of reconstructive spinal cord surgeries.”
Abdul rose to prominence once again in 2002 as a judge on “American Idol,” which she did for eight seasons. She tried to revive her music career in 2008, and though she had a minor hit, she didn’t mimic the early success she had on the charts. Since then, she’s acted and appeared on multiple reality shows.
Michael Keaton’s career was strong in the ’80s and ’90s, but the velocity didn’t continue through the 2000s until he was cast in “Birdman or (The Unexpected Virtue of Ignorance).”

“Beetlejuice” launched Michael Keaton to “Stardom,” and he followed the Tim Burton film up with Burton’s “Batman.” Keaton kept working – and received praise for movies like “Jackie Brown” – but nothing was quite the same.
Then in 2014, he was cast in “Birdman or (The Unexpected Virtue of Ignorance)” and earned an Oscar nomination. He followed that up with “Spotlight” and played the villain in Marvel’s “Spider-Man: Homecoming.”
Shania Twain retired from music in 2004, but came back with an album in 2017 and revealed her diagnosis of Lyme disease.

Shania Twain had won five Grammys and was a pop country superstar before she retired from music in 2004. In 2011, she revealed that she had been struggling with dysphonia, a disorder that affects vocal cords. She had to go through voice therapy. In 2017, she revealed that the dysphonia was caused by Lyme disease.
She came back a few times with a Las Vegas show in 2012 and arena tour in 2015, but 2017 marked her major comeback when she released “Now,” her first studio album in 15 years. The album went platinum and hit No. 1 on the Billboard charts.
Rob Lowe was a teen idol, but his career hit a low point before he returned on hit shows like “The West Wing” and “Parks and Recreation.”

Rob Lowe broke out as a teen actor in hit movies like “The Outsiders” and “St. Elmo’s Fire” and was a member of the Brat Pack. But then a sex tape scandal rocked his world. A video surfaced that showed Lowe having sex with two women, one of whom was underage. But because it happened in Georgia, the age of consent was 16, so he didn’t face any charges. Lowe went into rehab shortly after and is now almost 28 years sober.
But his career picked up once again when he was cast on “The West Wing,” which earned him an Emmy nomination. He followed that up with a role on “Brothers and Sisters” and was the beloved Chris Trager on “Parks and Recreation.”
Mandy Moore’s career slowed a bit in the early 2000s, but she’s back and stronger than ever as a star on “This Is Us.”

Mandy Moore burst onto the music scene as a teen and had a hit with her debut single “Candy.” She broke out as an actress with roles in “The Princess Diaries” and “A Walk to Remember,” but things started slowing for her career. She had a few small roles, but nothing stuck.
Then she was cast as the voice of Rapunzel in Disney’s 2010 movie “Tangled” and now stars on “This Is Us.” She earned her first Golden Globe nomination for the hit TV show.
Eminem released a comeback album in 2017.

Eminem scored his first mainstream success with “The Slim Shady LP” in 1999. He won two Grammys off of that album and followed that up with more success – and more Grammys – thanks to “The Marshall Mathers LP” and “The Eminem Show.” He later starred in “8 Mile,” a film loosely based on his own life, and won an Oscar for his original song “Lose Yourself.” But after 2004’s “Encore,” Eminem disappeared for a while.
After canceling his 2005 European tour, Eminem was treated for addiction to prescription sleeping medication. When his friend Proof was shot and killed, Eminem became depressed.
“I think it kind of hit me so hard,” he told XXL. “It just blindsided me. I just went into such a dark place that, with everything, the drugs, my thoughts, everything. And the more drugs I consumed, and it was all depressants I was taking, the more depressed I became, the more self-loathing I became.”
He came back with “Relapse” in 2009. He disappeared from the music scene briefly after his 2013 album but came back in 2017 with “Revival,” which featured collaborations with Beyoncé, Ed Sheeran, Pink, and more.
As well-known as Ellen DeGeneres is now, her career wasn’t always like that.

Ellen DeGeneres‘s career started with her doing stand-up and soon transitioned into acting roles. She rose in popularity thanks to her late ’90s sitcom “Ellen.” A few years into the series, both she and her character came out, but then ratings fell and her career faltered. She returned a few years later for the sitcom “The Ellen Show,” but it was canceled before the season finished airing.
Then 2003 brought a whole new level of success. DeGeneres was chosen to voice Dory in Disney-Pixar’s “Finding Nemo” and launched her own talk show. “The Ellen DeGeneres Show” has won 29 Emmys since its start. She has risen as an icon, taking home nine Teen Choice Awards and 20 People’s Choice Awards. She’s also hosted the Academy Awards, Grammy Awards, and the Primetime Emmys.
Vanessa Williams was faced with a scandal after she was crowned Miss America but went on to have a successful career.

Vanessa Williams was primed for success after she made history as the first African-American woman to be crowned Miss America in 1983. But in July 1984, Williams became the first woman to resign her crown following a scandal involving nude photos that were published in Penthouse magazine without her consent. At the time, Williams told People that she’d hit “rock bottom.”
But that wasn’t the end for Williams. She launched a successful music career garnering 11 Grammy nominations, releasing eight studio albums, and scoring multiple Billboard hits. Her acting career has also fared well. She starred on “Ugly Betty,” “Desperate Housewives,” and was recently on “The Librarians.” To top it all off, she’s been nominated for three Emmys and a Tony.
Christian Slater disappeared from the public eye for a bit but is back on TV.

Christian Slater dominated the 1980s and early ’90s. He was a breakout star in “Heathers” and a radio DJ in “Pump Up the Volume.” He was in “Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves” and “Interview With the Vampire.” But he had multiple run-ins with the law: There was drunk driving, trying to board an airplane with a gun in his luggage, assault while under the influence, and a later-dropped charge of harassing a woman on the street. In the meantime, he was in a series of quickly canceled TV series and movie flops.
He bounced back with “Mr. Robot” in 2015 and won his first Golden Globe for the role.

Battle Beyond the Stars
[3 stars]
To be a little oxymoronic, this decidedly low-budget Roger Corman (Extraordinary Tales) space opera is more interesting for its camp and historical aspects than it is for the movie itself, which is just as often unintentionally funny as it is intentionally so in John Sayles’ script. Part of that is, admittedly, the execution of story. While Jimmy T. Murakami is officially credited for directing, Corman was in there stirring the pot too. It shows in the choice to deliver much of the arch/stock dialogue in absolute earnest, keeping the movie on keel but making some moments delightfully absurd.
For context, this flick was released just two years after the original Star Wars. Everyone wanted to replicate that success and we were getting inundated with bad space opera. But it was even earlier that films began poking fun at Flash Gordon and its ilk with the groundbreaking Barbarella. There is more than a little of that kind of humor in Battle, even as it attempts to wrap it all in a serious struggle for the survival of a planetfull of people under siege by a galactic bully, in the guise of John Saxon.
Leading the charge against Saxon’s Sador is Richard Thomas (The Americans) fresh off The Waltons. He and his smart-mouthed ship spearhead the search for warriors to protect his pacifist planet. The motley crew he assembles includes George Peppard (Damnation Alley ), Robert Vaughn, and Earl Boen.
Importantly, working behind the camera was a young James Cameron who was earning his bones and seeing how it was all done. Boen would meet Cameron and, a few short years later, find himself in The Terminator and Cameron at the forefront of his long career.
Battle is, at best, diverting and, at worse, painful to watch. It is sexist, absurd, culturally white bread, poorly plotted, and ridiculously executed. Which is all part of what makes it popcorn fun. But a good movie this isn’t. You watch it for how bad it is at times, and at how impressive the effects are for the time and budget they were working with. It is really more a classic because of who was involved than anything else. Either you’re a fan of “so bad its good/fun” or you’re not. If you’re not, just run away now.

Milford’s historical charter commission
A number of reforms were proposed (and defeated) at this spring’s town meeting in Milford. Now seems like a good time to recall the 1970s effort to approve a charter for Milford, and see what we can learn from it.
All info comes from the Milford Town Library, either their microfilm archive of the Milford Daily News, or their online archive of annual town reports.
It has been fifty years since we last examined how our town is governed; are we due for a re-examination?
TEXT OF PROPOSED CHARTER
TIMELINE
October 1969: Town Government Study Committee supports home rule charter commission March 2, 1970: Town votes, 3937 - 1439, to elect a charter commission. (Also vote to discontinue fluoridation.) More than 7,000 people voted. March 18, 1970: Appropriates $12,000 to charter commission for consultants. October 30, 1970: Charter Commission preliminary report printed in Milford Daily News January 4, 1971: Charter Commission delivers final report March 1, 1971: Town votes, 3807 - 2744, to reject the proposed charter. More than 7,600 people voted. 1975: Board of Selectmen reappoints Charter Study Commission to allow it to prepare town meeting articles based on its proposed charter. April 25-27, 1977: Town meeting votes on multiple articles from Charter Study Committee.
Article 45 -- to combine Highway, Tree, Sewer, Cemetery, Parks, Planning, and several other departments into a single department of public works -- fails by a voice vote.
Article 46 -- to expand Board of Selectmen from three to five, pending approval from voters at the next town election -- passes by a vote of 98-69.
Article 47 -- to reduce the number of town meeting members from 215(?) to 105, eliminate at-large members, require recording of attendance and votes, establish standing committees, and publish rules of procedure -- fails by a voice vote.
April 3, 1978: Town votes, 2881 - 1692, to reject the proposed expansion of the Board of Selectmen. Fewer than 5,000 people voted.

Report of the Town Govt. Study Committee (1970 ATM)
The Town Government Study Committee (T.G.S.C.) is a committee appointed by the Selectmen. Its assigned function is to study local governmental structure. On June 18, 1969 the T.G.S.C. held its organizational meeting and elected new officers. In order to obtain a broader representation of our community the committee requested, and on July 14, 1969 the Selectmen approved, the expansion of the committee to twenty-nine members.
Since that time the T.G.S.C. has been addressed by several guest speakers. All are considered prominent authorities in Municipal government. The speakers included Atty. William Leonard an authority on the Home Rule Amendment and Chairman of the Northboro Charter Commission. John Cronin, Executive Secretary of Milton. Mr. Robert O’Hare, Director of the Bureau of Public Affairs at Boston College. Michael P. Curran, Former Chairman of the Home Rule Implementation Committee and presently associated with Municipal Consultants Incorporated.
On August 29, 1969 the T.G.S.C. distributed a questionnaire to our public officials to obtain their opinions on our governmental structure. This survey indicated that many town officials felt a need for further study. As a result of these addresses, the survey and the research of our subcommittees, the Town Government Study Committee on October 29, 1969 unanimously endorsed the establishment of a Home Rule Charter Commission.
Our petition drive to secure the 1489 valid signatures to place the question of a Charter Commission on ballot was successful and as you know the voters of Milford approved the formation of a Charter Commission by a three to one margin.
As stated previously the purpose of the Town Government Study Committee, an appointive committee, is to study local governmental structure. The purpose of the Milford Charter Commission, an elected body, is also to study local governmental structure, and to draw up a charter for Milford. I have discussed the future role of the T.G.S.C. with several of its members and consequently I feel that it would be wise to request the Selectmen to suspend the activities of the T.G.S.C. until the Milford Charter Commission completes its study.
Respectfully submitted,
DAVID P. HAYES Chairman T.G.S.C.
Members of the T.G.S.C. are:

REPORT OF THE MILFORD CHARTER COMMISSION
Board of Selectmen Town Hall
Milford, Massachusetts
January 4, 1971
Gentlemen:
The nine member Milford Charter Commission was elected at the annual election last March for the purpose of drawing up a Charter (Constitution) for the Town of Milford. The Town Meeting appropriated $12,000 to assist us in our work.
Since the election of the Charter Commission in March, the Commission has conducted fifty meetings. One of our initial decisions was to engage Municipal Consultants Inc., a leading authority in the state in the field of home rule. During the ten month period since its election, the Commission has conducted two public hearings, interviewed town officials, studied the various alternatives open to us and finally drafted the preliminary report which was published in the Milford Daily News on Friday, October 30, 1970.
The final report is the result of nearly three years study by both the Town Government Study Committee and the elected nine member Charter Commission.
Briefly stated, the most significant changes to our present system of government included in the charter are as follows:
(1) It establishes the position of town administrator, appointed by the Board of Selectmen, and responsible for the day to day administration of town affairs.
(2) It provides for a new fiscal management procedure including a capital improvement program for long-range planning. Also provided for are centralized purchasing, inventory control and continuing supervision for all departmental budgets.
(3) It provides for a new consolidated department of public works. Under this department the responsibilities of the present highway, sewer, tree and other departments concerned with maintenance will be merged.
(4) It increases the membership of the Board of Selectmen from three to five members to broaden the base of its authority, and it increases the membership of the School Committee from six to seven members.
(5) It provides many improvements relative to the Representative Town Meeting, such as a continuous meeting; recording of votes; a standing committee system; publication of rules of procedure, and the appointment of a deputy moderator. It also establishes that voters in each precinct will be required to elect only seven town meeting members from each precinct each year for three year terms, for a total membership of 105. Chapter 43B of the General Laws requires that a Charter Commission must submit its final report to the Board of Selectmen within ten months after its election. Chapter 43B further states that the Board of Selectmen shall provide for the publication and distribution of the Charter and for its submission to the voters at the next annual town election. If the Charter is approved by a majority of the vote then it shall go into effect as stipulated in the Charter.
We of the Charter Commission are confident that we have framed a charter that is truly tailor made to the needs of our community. We strongly feel that it represents the convictions of the vast majority of our citizens, and that it presents a very positive approach to the management of our governmental affairs.
Respectfully submitted,
MILFORD CHARTER COMMISSION DAVID P. HAYES, Chairman HARRIS M. TREDEAU, Vice Chairman JULIE ANNE RIZOLI, Clerk ANTHONY J. BRENNA ANGELO A. CALAGIONE SALVATORE P. CIMINO JOHN C. DALTON EDWARD PATRICK DOHERTY JOHN P. PYNE, JR.

The 2017 NFL Draft may be over, but that doesn’t mean teams are done adding important contributors for the upcoming season. Scores of NCAA athletes will start the next chapters of their football careers by signing as undrafted free agents this week.
The class of 2017 could also produce some memorable contributors. College standouts like Jarron Jones and Hardy Nickerson Jr. should all draw plenty of interest this spring. Though they’ll face long odds to make an NFL roster, the path they’ll walk is far from uncharted territory.
There’s a laundry list of players who have emerged from the embers of the draft to make a major impact in the NFL. All-Pros like Wes Welker, Priest Holmes, Kurt Warner, Antonio Gates, John Randle, James Harrison, Jessie Tuggle, and Tony Romo all took the long way to the league. They turned out to be unexpected boons who didn’t cost a cent in draft currency.
We’ll have a complete list of undrafted free agent signings as they come in.
