                                                                        Giving Back
                                                                          Fair Way
     The Westborough High School golf team had taken the official photos with the state prize. The other teams,
disappointed, were on the bus heading home. And then Westborough instructor Greg Rota noticed something
wrong with one of the score cards. A 9 had been recorded as a 7. They were not the state prize winner; Wobum
High had won. "No one would have known," said Wobum's instructor, Bob Doran. For Rota, it wasn't a difficult
decision:"The prize wasn't ours to take."
                                                                          Coin Stars
     "College students are lazy, but they also want to help," says University of Pennsylvania graduate Dana Hork.
So she made it easy, placing cups in rooms where students could leave their spare coins, and handing out cups
to first-year students to keep in their rooms. Her "Change for Change" effort has collected $40,000 for charities
(慈善机构), which were decided upon by students.
                                                                     Never Forgotten

continues to lead the electronic music charts and appears at the highpoint of every Top DJ list across the
globe.PvD, as his fans have nicknamed him, is currently ranked the World's No.1 DJ by DJ Magazine's
"Top 100 DJs poll" for the second successive year.
     PvD is wellknown as one of the hardest working artists, with soldout tours that cross each continent,
headline spots at every major festival, and a hugely successful recording career.With over 3 million albums sold worldwide, van Dyk travels around the world over 16 times each year to sold out performances
internationally.
     Born in Eisenhuettenstadt, East Germany, Paul van Dyk grew up in East Berlin.Because his community did not have a true club culture, Paul van Dyk listened to the radio where he discovered his passion for
music that extended beyond Techno music-he wanted to create a different, more unique sound.In the early 1990's Paul van Dyk was performing regularly at various clubs in Berlin before releasing his first album
45 RPM in 1994.But it was the release of his second album Seven Ways that put him into Top 100,
followed by the release of his hit single "For An Angel, " which began to earn him praise across the globe.By the time Paul van Dyk released Out There & Back in 2000, it became clear that the Berlinbased
musician had far more to offer than his signature club sets that had already defined him as one of the most
influential DJs and producers of all time.His first mix CD Politics of Dancing was released in 2001,
followed by Global in 2003-a DVD which illustrates his own experiences traveling the world.
