Al Jazeera on SELCO; One Brush Drop-Off Date Left

Here's what we think you'd like to know for Thursday, Aug. 22.

1. You may have noticed a few changes on your SELCO "dial." According to a recent post on SELCO's Facebook page, and text alerts sent by the communications company, Speed TV is now Fox Sports on 79 and 379; Fuel TV is now Fox Sports 2 on 258; Current TV is now Al Jazeera America on 205; and ID has moved to channel 80. "More changes are coming soon." 

2. Both the Retirement Board Committee and Finance Committee have meetings on Thursday at the town's Municipal Office Building at 7 p.m. As always, these meetings are open to the public. 

3. There is only one day left for summer brush drop off, and it's coming up quickly. Have you cleaned up your yard? 

4. Along with the devastating effects of the events of the Boston Marathon, of course many didn't get to finish the race they had trained so many months to accomplish. Now, those who didn't have a chance to finish, can. 

5. Massachusetts State Police announced that sobriety checkpoints will be set up this weekend in Worcester County.
