Liz Walsh, owner of The Drawing Board, stands with Carrie Stahler, Director of Community<br />

Engagement at Green Mountain United Way, and $1000 worth of art supplies bound for backpacks for<br />

children entering emergency foster care.<br />

Drawing Board Supports Foster Children<br />

with Art Supply Drive<br />

The Drawing Board, Montpelier’s local<br />

Art Supply and Framing Store, recently<br />

donated $1000 worth of art supplies to Green<br />

Mountain United Way. Items included markers,<br />

paints, sketch pads, origami kits, drawing<br />

pencils, and coloring books and will be<br />

distributed through Tatum’s Totes coordinated<br />

by Green Mountain United Way in the<br />

Barre, St. Johnsbury, and Newport<br />

Department for Children and Families districts.<br />

This generous donation is part of The<br />

Drawing Board’s commitment to give back<br />

to the local community.<br />

Tatum’s Totes is a program that provides<br />

backpacks to children transitioning into foster<br />

care. Tatum’s Totes was founded by Liz<br />

and Alex Grimes when they began fostering<br />

children after their son Tatum died of SIDS<br />

at 5 months old. They found an independent<br />

organization to honor Tatum’s memory and<br />

to serve children in their home and of<br />

Rutland County after they realized that<br />

many foster children enter their new homes<br />

with little more than a plastic shopping bag<br />

with a few personal items. Green Mountain<br />

United Way brought Tatum’s Totes to all<br />

DCF districts in their service region in 2016<br />

and 2017. Children entering foster care are<br />

given a backpack of their own filled with<br />

age-appropriate caring items including blankets,<br />

books, toys, toothbrushes and other<br />

hygiene items, games, a water bottle, school<br />

supplies, and art supplies.<br />

“Growing up, art was something that<br />

helped me discover who I was. I imagine that<br />

these children, like many of us, need an outlet<br />

for creativity and a positive way to express<br />

themselves. If we can help give these children<br />

an opportunity to have a creative break,<br />

to enjoy making their own art, or coloring a<br />

picture to help relieve the stress they are<br />

experiencing, I’m so happy to be a small part<br />

of that positive experience for these kids,”<br />

said Drawing Board owner Liz Walsh.<br />

“This generous gift is an incredible example<br />

of how our local business community is<br />

integral to making our communities better<br />

places to live and work.” says Carrie Stahler,<br />

Director of Community Engagement at<br />

Green Mountain United Way. “This donation<br />

will directly support children who are<br />

experiencing the trauma of changing homes,<br />

and is a huge support to the families who<br />

have opened their homes and lives to support<br />

these children in our community. The<br />

support of local businesses like The Drawing<br />

Board helps to make this program possible.<br />

Together we can show children transitioning<br />

into foster that their community loves, supports,<br />

and values them.”<br />

In the past 12 months, Green Mountain<br />

United Way has supplied over 75 bags to<br />

children entering foster care. For a complete<br />

list of items to support Tatum’s Totes, go to<br />

About Green Mountain United Way:<br />

Green Mountain United Way is a Vermont<br />

not-for-profit organization in operation<br />

since <strong>19</strong>76. They work to improve the health,<br />

education and financial stability of every<br />

person in every community in Caledonia,<br />

Essex, Orange, Orleans and Washington<br />

Counties by mobilizing the caring power of<br />

communities around our region to advance<br />

the common good. No other single organization<br />

has the scope and influence to bring<br />

together human service agencies, government,<br />

businesses, private foundations and<br />

dedicated volunteers around a common<br />

vision of creating maximum impact and<br />

achieving long-lasting results.<br />

About Tatum’s Totes: Tatum’s Totes is an<br />

independent nonprofit organization founded<br />

by Liz and Alex Grimes of Rutland,<br />

Vermont and named after their son Tatum<br />

who died of SIDS in 2013. They found comfort<br />

in honoring Tatum’s memory in many<br />

ways, and one of these was through becoming<br />

foster parents. They founded Tatum’s<br />

Totes after realizing that children having<br />

comforting items of their own can help ease<br />

the transition into a new home. Tatum’s<br />

Totes now serves all DCF regions in<br />

Vermont.<br />

VSAC Warns Student Loan Borrowers to<br />

Watch Out for New Scam<br />

Vermont Student Assistance Corporation<br />

(VSAC) is warning borrowers about a student<br />

loan debt relief scam hitting some<br />

Vermont borrowers right now.<br />

The scammers claim to be calling from<br />

“Vermont Student Assistance” and instructing<br />

borrowers that they need to call a company<br />

called Riverwalk Debt Solutions in<br />

Texas. The principals of this scam company<br />

recently pleaded guilty in Maryland to a<br />

$550 million Ponzi-type scheme targeting<br />

investors and others, according to the Better<br />

Business Bureau.<br />

“This is a scam. Plain and simple. Do not<br />

call this company. Instead, contact the<br />

Vermont Attorney General’s office and<br />

VSAC immediately if you think you have<br />

been scammed by this outfit or any other<br />

who tries to charge fees to help you with<br />

your student loans,” said Scott Giles, president<br />

and CEO of VSAC.<br />

“Borrowers should never pay for information<br />

related to their federal student loans.<br />

VSAC’s team of financial aid counselors<br />

works with you – at no charge – on a oneon-one<br />

basis to answer your questions.”<br />

• • •<br />

If you believe you may have received a<br />

scam call, contact the Attorney General’s<br />

Consumer Assistance Program at 1-800-<br />

649-2424 or by e-mailing AGO.CAP@vermont.gov.<br />

For questions about student<br />

loans, contact VSAC at 1-800-862-3177.<br />

VSAC issued the initial alarm with federal<br />

and state regulators five years ago. A new<br />

wave of scammers is targeting federal student<br />

and parent loan borrowers with promises<br />

of having student loans forgiven and<br />

convincing people to pay them for information<br />

that is free. VSAC is teaming with<br />

Attorney General T.J. Donovan to ensure<br />

that no Vermont borrowers fall prey to this<br />

scam.<br />

VSAC counsels borrowers. For free. Our<br />

financial aid experts walk you through your<br />

loan terms; advises you on repayment plans<br />

and much more. Call us or stop in at our<br />

Winooski headquarters. You aren’t alone on<br />

this.<br />

Three things to remember:<br />

• Never pay a fee for help.<br />

• Keep your FSA ID private.<br />

• Call us if you have questions.

Barre Granite Association Celebrates 130th Anniversary<br />

20<strong>19</strong> marks the 130th Anniversary of<br />

the Barre Granite Association (BGA).<br />

The association was formed in 1889,<br />

when fourteen Barre area granite manufacturers<br />

met to plan for the industry’s<br />

first major trade show, the 1893 <strong>World</strong>’s<br />

Columbian Exposition in Chicago.<br />

Originally formed as the Granite<br />

Manufacturer’s Association of Barre,<br />

the association merged with the Granite<br />

Manufacturers and Quarriers<br />

Association in <strong>19</strong>31 and was renamed<br />

the Barre Granite Association in <strong>19</strong>32.<br />

The BGA’s member firms have contributed immensely to<br />

the growth of Barre, as well as its diverse mixture of cultures,<br />

and the Barre area has become internationally recognized as<br />

the premier source of the world’s finest granite, granite art<br />

and artisans.<br />

H.O.P.E. Donates 100<br />

Backpacks to Lyndon Institute<br />

Lyndon Institute received a donation of 100 backpacks on<br />

August 20, 20<strong>19</strong>, from H.O.P.E (Helping Other People<br />

Everyday). H.O.P.E operates a thrift store in Lyndonville,<br />

VT to help fund its mission to provide basic services to<br />

people in need in the local community. H.O.P.E. and LI have<br />

worked closely over the years to provide their students with<br />

clothing and other basic necessities when needed.<br />

Initially, H.O.P.E. was the recipient of 3,000 backpacks<br />

from the Tender Corporation who is based out of Littleton,<br />

NH. Yvette O’Connor reached out to Lyndon Institute<br />

Counselor Bobbi Warner Somers on behalf of H.O.P.E. to<br />

facilitate the donation to LI.<br />

Over the years, O’Connor, Somers, and Jodi Wheeler<br />

(founder of H.O.P.E.) have worked to provide clothing,<br />

backpacks, and other essential items for LI students. H.O.P.E.<br />

has also provided many students with suits and dresses for<br />

events at LI like their annual Snow Ball and Prom.<br />

More information about<br />

H.O.P.E. can be found on<br />

their website at www.hopevermont.com<br />

and more information<br />

about Lyndon<br />

Institute can be found at<br />

www.lyndoninstitute.org. LI<br />

students that are interested in<br />

obtaining one of the donated<br />

backpacks are encouraged to<br />

stop into the Counseling<br />

Center at LI.<br />

BGA Executive Director Doug Grahn<br />

commented on this achievement, “We<br />

are grateful for all of the men and<br />

women responsible for making the BGA<br />

successful over 130 years, as well as our<br />

local industry’s continuing resurgence.<br />

Our members, the board of trustees and<br />

all the employees of our member firms<br />

have continued to support the highest<br />

professional standard of crafting all their<br />

products with integrity and pride; as if<br />

they were being made for themselves<br />

and their families.”<br />

Currier Twins Retire from Army<br />

Twin sisters who began their Army<br />

National Guard careers together, went to war<br />

in Afghanistan together and share a house<br />

together, are now planning their retirements<br />

from the New York Army National Guard<br />

together.<br />

Lieutenant Colonel (Retired) Lynn<br />

Currier and Master Sergeant Lisa Currier<br />

twin daughters of Elizabeth C. (Tucker)<br />

Melvin, Barre, Vermont, the late Donald K.<br />

Currier (deceased) and step father Eldon J.<br />

Melvin (deceased) have been members of the<br />

Vermont and New York Army National Guard<br />

for over 33 years each. Lynn and Lisa are<br />

<strong>19</strong>81 graduates of Spaulding High School,<br />

they enlisted into the Army National Guard<br />

together in <strong>19</strong>86.<br />

Beginning in <strong>19</strong>86, the two sisters, who are<br />

both Troy, N.Y. residents, have spent more<br />

than three decades sharing service and experiences.<br />

It turned out to be an advertisement<br />

for the Vermont Army National Guard, highlighting<br />

some of the education benefits that<br />

were offered. Lisa explained that she was able<br />

to talk her sister into joining with her, ultimately<br />

the Army Reserves, rather than looking<br />

into the state police.<br />

Both women enlisted together on February<br />

3, <strong>19</strong>86 on the buddy system, under that system,<br />

Lynn explained, the two sisters were<br />

able to go to basic training and advanced<br />

individual training together. Six month later<br />

coming home to Vermont, they went right to<br />

work full-time at Camp Johnson in<br />

Colchester.<br />

In <strong>19</strong>90, a previous supervisor called and<br />

told Lynn about the full-time positions in the<br />

New York National Guard. She interviewed<br />

for a New York National Guard position in<br />

December of <strong>19</strong>90 and got the job.<br />

Over the course of the next three years,<br />

Lynn advanced her career in the New York<br />

National Guard while her sister stayed behind<br />

in Vermont. Lisa, who had transitioned from<br />

working for the Vermont National Guard to<br />

working for IBM, wouldn’t stay behind for<br />

long.<br />

“She kept saying, come over, come over,”<br />

Lisa recalled. “I was working like 12 hour<br />

shifts and it was just crazy. I woke up one<br />

Sunday morning and decided, I’m tired of<br />

this.”<br />

Three years after Lynn made her way to<br />

New York, Lisa put in her resignation to IBM<br />

and left, moving in with her sister. Lisa<br />

explained that within a couple of weeks she<br />

was then able to find a job at the New York<br />

Army National Guard headquarters.<br />

The Currier sisters agreed that one of the<br />

most significant changes they’ve seen during<br />

their 34 year careers was an increase in<br />

women joining the National Guard. They’ve<br />

also been pleased to see more and more<br />

women being selected for leadership positions.<br />

Those opportunities, along with the fulltime<br />

employment and benefits afforded to<br />

them, the sisters explained there was no reason<br />

to leave the Army National Guard. With<br />

more women joining the military, the Army<br />

needed to make changes. Lisa said she experienced<br />

first-hand what she considers to be<br />

one of the most significant changes.<br />

While preparing to mobilize for deployment<br />

to Iraq in 2004 with the 42nd Infantry<br />

Division, Lisa who is a breast cancer survivor,<br />

discovered the Army didn’t have guidelines<br />

for how to treat women who had once<br />

had cancer. There were regulations on how<br />

long men had to be free from the various<br />

types of cancers that can develop in men, but<br />

there were no regulations covering cancers<br />

which effect only women, Lisa said.<br />

During mobilization at Fort Drum, the<br />

staff decided to insist on a six month period<br />

of being cancer free before Lisa could proceed<br />

with mobilization. There were relapses<br />

that reset the six month waiting period, and<br />

as a result Lisa spent her 18 month deployment<br />

at Fort Drum.<br />

Since then, medical policies have changed<br />

to accommodate women as well, Lisa said.<br />

While the Curriers both started as enlisted<br />

Soldiers in <strong>19</strong>86, Lynn decided she wanted to<br />

take her military career to another level and<br />

Charles Martin to Lead VT ESGR<br />

Capt. Juliet Perkins, Executive Director of<br />

HQ Employer Support of the Guard and<br />

Reserve (ESGR), based in Alexandria, VA,<br />

has announced the confirmation of Charles<br />

Martin as the next Chair to lead the VT ESGR<br />

field committee.<br />

ESGR’s mission is to foster a culture where<br />

employers support and value the military service<br />

of their Reserve Component (RC)<br />

employees. In this role, Charles and his team<br />

of dedicated volunteers serve as the principal<br />

means of communication between the<br />

Department of Defense, employers, RC service<br />

members and the local community.<br />

Charles is the Government Affairs Director<br />

at the Vermont Chamber of Commerce. He<br />

previously worked on Capitol Hill as a<br />

• • •<br />

become an officer after reaching the rank of<br />

staff sergeant.<br />

“I always wanted to be more assertive and<br />

more in control of things,” said Lynn. “I felt<br />

the only way that was going to happen was to<br />

be an officer.” “She just wants to be the hot<br />

dog,” laughed Lisa. As an officer, Lynn served<br />

as a military police officer which was an aspiration<br />

of hers before joining the National<br />

Guard.<br />

In 2008, the Currier sisters found themselves<br />

deploying with the HQ’s 27th Infantry<br />

Brigade Combat Team to Afghanistan, in<br />

support of Operation Enduring Freedom<br />

from January 2008 to December 2008.<br />

Lynn served as the Deputy Provost<br />

Marshal (2nd in command of the Police<br />

Force) Camp Phoenix, Kabul, Afghanistan.<br />

Lisa served in Mazar-i-sharif as a Senior<br />

Logistics Non-Commissioned Officer (NCO)<br />

in charge of over 10 million dollars’ worth of<br />

equipment located all over the region.<br />

“We did deploy together, but they separated<br />

us after three or four months,” said Lisa.<br />

“That was the big thing, they didn’t want<br />

them together on the same base.” “In case<br />

there was an attack,” added Lynn.<br />

They said that Lynn remained in Kabul,<br />

while Lisa was sent 500 miles away to Mazari-Sharif.<br />

Initially however, Lynn arrived in<br />

country several days before Lisa and was<br />

waiting to offer her a lift to the astonishment<br />

of other, higher ranking service members.<br />

“When I flew in, I think she knew I was<br />

coming,” said Lisa.<br />

“I did,” said Lynn.<br />

“I flew in with people that were a lot<br />

higher ranking than me,” said Lisa with a<br />

laugh, “she pulls up with the Gator and I<br />

throw all my stuff in it and we take off, while<br />

everyone else has to carry their stuff.”<br />

The year passed, with those initial few<br />

months spent with Lisa sleeping on her sister’s<br />

floor on a couple sleeping mats, Lynn<br />

had half a Conex box, roughly 10ft. by 15ft.<br />

Both Soldiers returned safely home to their<br />

families.<br />

Now as they prepare to retire, looking<br />

back at their fondest memories of their military<br />

careers, Lisa said for her it is of all the<br />

wonderful people they have been able to<br />

meet.<br />

“It’s like a family,” Lynn added. But it was<br />

being a soldier that meant the most to her.<br />

“When I had to take my uniform off, let me<br />

tell you,” Lynn started before Lisa emphasized<br />

that her sister was upset for weeks<br />

Vermont Chamber Delivers Meaningful<br />

Cross-Border Trade<br />

The Vermont Chamber’s 20<strong>19</strong><br />

Manufacturing Summit on Thursday,<br />

September 26th will deliver numerous trade<br />

opportunities for businesses in New England<br />

and Canada, enhancing and helping to grow<br />

the number of manufacturing jobs in<br />

Vermont to 9.46% of the workforce.<br />

The Manufacturing Summit is bringing<br />

buyers, suppliers and partners together for<br />

business opportunities at the Champlain<br />

Valley Exposition in Essex Junction. Airbus,<br />

Bell Flight, Pratt & Whitney, Rolls-Royce<br />

and Sikorsky top the list of out-of-state companies<br />

representing the aerospace industry<br />

at the Manufacturing Summit. With over 600<br />

pre-scheduled meetings, these companies<br />

will have the opportunity to engage and add<br />

Vermont and New England manufacturers to<br />

their supply chains, contributing to the economic<br />

growth of the state and region.<br />

“Vermont is the supply chain hub for these<br />

companies to engage pre-qualified suppliers<br />

and partners, and optimize their supply chains<br />

for competitive advantage,” explains Chris<br />

Carrigan, Vice President of Business<br />

Development for the Vermont Chamber.<br />

“Vermont stands out as a leader in the industry<br />

because of the Manufacturing Summit’s ability<br />

to draw in 25 Canadian companies and 20 buyers<br />

from large, out-of-state manufactures.”<br />

The Vermont Chamber will host delegations<br />

from Aéro Montréal, the Québec<br />

Government, Connecticut aerospace, as well<br />

as 25 Canadian companies in support of its<br />

work to build a U.S.-Canadian Aerospace<br />

Corridor, linking Vermont’s $2 billion aerospace<br />

and aviation cluster with a $28 billion<br />

Canadian aerospace industry for cross-border<br />

contacts and contracts. This is part of the<br />

vision of the Memorandum of Understanding<br />

between the Vermont Chamber of<br />

Commerce and Aéro Montréal signed in<br />

2013 and to be enhanced by extending the<br />

corridor to Connecticut in a signing at the<br />

event.<br />

In its sixth year, the Manufacturing<br />

Summit attracts attendees from the<br />

Northeast region and as far away as<br />

California, Virginia and Minnesota.<br />

Attendees network with industry peers,<br />

meet buyers and suppliers, connect with<br />

employers, attend industry workshops, see<br />

new product innovations and experience<br />

dynamic exhibits, such as an Advanced<br />

Manufacturing Lab by Vermont Technical<br />

College.<br />

Health Department Requesting<br />

Provider Reports of Vapingassociated<br />

Respiratory Illness<br />

As part of the Centers for Disease Control<br />

and Prevention’s investigation into cases of<br />

severe respiratory illness associated with<br />

e-cigarettes and vaping, the Vermont<br />

Department of Health has asked the state’s<br />

health care providers to watch for and report<br />

any suspected cases.<br />

According to the CDC, 215 possible cases<br />

of severe pulmonary disease associated with<br />

e-cigarette products have been reported in<br />

25 states as of August 27. Two deaths, one<br />

each in Illinois and Oregon, have been<br />

reported. Vermont health officials are investigating<br />

one suspected case.<br />

In a Health Advisory issued on August 29,<br />

20<strong>19</strong>, Health Commissioner Mark Levine,<br />

MD requested that providers report cases of<br />

significant respiratory illness among individuals<br />

with a history of vaping or smoking<br />

any substance in the 90 days prior to symptoms.<br />

The information collected will be<br />

shared with the CDC.<br />

Although health officials have not yet<br />

determined a single substance or e-cigarette<br />

product associated with illness, a health<br />

advisory from the CDC said all the people<br />

affected reported e-cigarette use, with many<br />

reporting they vaped cannabinoid products<br />

such as THC or CBD. Patients have experienced<br />

respiratory symptoms (cough, shortness<br />

of breath, or chest pain), nausea, vomiting<br />

or diarrhea, or other symptoms like<br />

fatigue, fever or weight loss. Symptoms typically<br />

develop over a period of days or weeks.<br />

“This outbreak is disturbing, particularly<br />

because of how serious the symptoms are<br />

and how little we know about their cause,”<br />

said Dr. Levine. “We want to make sure we<br />

identify any Vermonters affected by this illness<br />

to better understand the situation.”<br />

According to the 2017 Vermont Youth<br />

Risk Behavior Survey (YRBS) there was a<br />

significant increase in the percent of students<br />

who had ever tried e-cigarettes, from<br />

30% to 34%. Fewer than one in 20 adults said<br />

they currently use e-cigarettes.<br />

Among high school students in Vermont,<br />

12%, or 3,000 students, said they used electronic<br />

vapor products in the past 30 days,<br />

and 15% used them every day.<br />

Vermonters Must Be 21 to Purchase and<br />

Possess Tobacco Products Starting Sept. 1<br />

Starting September 1, Vermonters must be<br />

at least 21 years old to purchase and possess<br />

tobacco products or paraphernalia. The new<br />

law also includes tobacco-substitute products,<br />

such as e-cigarettes. Health officials say<br />

the increase in buying age will help protect<br />

youth from nicotine addiction and potentially<br />

toxic chemicals.<br />

Commonly known as Tobacco 21, the new<br />

law is expected to reduce smoking rates over<br />

time and ultimately save lives. An estimated<br />

95% of adults start smoking by age 21, so restricting<br />

access to these products will help<br />

prevent young Vermonters from ever taking<br />

it up.<br />

“We’ve made great strides against tobacco<br />

use, but the popularity of e-cigarettes and<br />

vaping continues to skyrocket among our<br />

youth,” said Health Commissioner Mark<br />

Levine, MD. “We are also seeing evidence<br />

of increasing rates of health problems associated<br />

with vaping.”<br />

According the Vermont Youth Risk Behavior<br />

Survey (YRBS) there was a significant<br />

increase in the percent of students who have<br />

ever tried e-cigarettes, from 30% in 2015 to<br />

34% in 2017. Among high school students in<br />

Vermont, 12% said they used electronic vapor<br />

products in the past 30 days.<br />

A single 5% “pod” of liquid nicotine used in<br />

e-cigarettes can contain as much nicotine as<br />

an entire pack of cigarettes. Teens and young<br />

adults are uniquely vulnerable to the effects<br />

of nicotine, and more likely to get addicted.<br />

Exposure to nicotine in adolescence can impact<br />

attention, learning, mood and impulse<br />

control. The aerosol that users breathe from<br />

e-cigarettes can contain nicotine and other<br />

toxic chemicals, including formaldehyde and<br />

arsenic.<br />

Dr. Levine said that while e-cigarettes are<br />

less harmful to adults than combustible cigarettes,<br />

they are never safe for teens and young<br />

adults, making this new law all the more necessary.<br />

“These cyber-cigarettes, with their<br />

thousands of flavors, represent a 21st Century<br />

version of big tobacco’s decades-long<br />

push to market and promote their products<br />

to youth,” said Dr. Levine. “Society always<br />

races to keep up with technology. This law<br />

• • •<br />

A recent PACE survey of young<br />

Vermonters conducted by the Health<br />

Department and the University of Vermont<br />

found that among those who reported using<br />

marijuana in the past 30 days, 15% usually<br />

vaporized it.<br />

“Youth, young adults, pregnant women<br />

and adults who do not use tobacco products<br />

should not use e-cigarette products,” said Dr.<br />

Levine. “If you currently use e-cigarette<br />

products, do not buy them off the street or<br />

modify them for unintended use.”<br />

Public health concerns are already focused<br />

on the risks of exposure to potentially toxic<br />

chemicals from vaping products – including<br />

nicotine, arsenic, lead and formaldehyde.<br />

“We also know that e-cigarette products can<br />

be used to deliver substances for which they<br />

weren’t designed, like marijuana or other<br />

products that may come from unknown<br />

sources, which can make them more harmful,”<br />

said Dr. Levine<br />

Over the past several years, Vermont policy<br />

makers have focused on protecting youth<br />

and young adults from e-cigarette use.<br />

Vermonters must now be 21 years or older<br />

to buy or possess tobacco or tobacco-substitute<br />

products, such as e-cigarettes. A Health<br />

Department initiative called Counterbalance,<br />

and the efforts of youth-led groups like OVX<br />

are reaching out to educate kids about flavors<br />

and how they are used to appeal to a<br />

new generation. The state also added e-cigarettes<br />

to Clean Indoor Air requirements,<br />

prohibited online e-cigarette and liquid nicotine<br />

sales, and began taxing them at the<br />

same rate as tobacco-related products.<br />

Smokers who are trying to quit should use<br />

evidence-based approaches that have been<br />

shown to work. Visit 802Quits.org to get<br />

With the enactment of Act 27, Vermont<br />

joins 17 states, the District of Columbia,<br />

Guam and more than 480 municipalities with<br />

a Tobacco 21 law.<br />

Two related laws went into effect in July<br />

that prohibit the online sales of e-cigarettes<br />

and liquid nicotine, and subjects e-cigarettes<br />

and liquid nicotine to the same 92% tax already<br />

assessed on tobacco-related products.<br />

These laws, in combination with Tobacco 21,<br />

help strengthen statewide tobacco prevention<br />

efforts to discourage teens and young<br />

adults from using these products.<br />

help to quit smoking or the use of any kind<br />

University in Northfield, Vermont, to a first<br />

solo work of fiction or nonfiction that has<br />

made a major contribution to the understanding<br />

of military history, intelligence<br />

operations or international affairs.<br />

A Senior Fellow and Director of the<br />

Technology and National Security Program<br />

at the Center for a New American Security,<br />

Scharre’s debut book, “Army of None,” was<br />

selected by Bill Gates as one of his top picks<br />

of 2018. Scharre served as a special operations<br />

reconnaissance team leader in the U.S.<br />

Army’s 3rd Ranger Battalion and completed<br />

multiple tours to Iraq and Afghanistan.<br />

Colby Award winners receive a $5,000<br />

author honorarium provided through the<br />

generosity of the Chicago-based Pritzker<br />

Military Foundation. The award and honorarium<br />

will be presented to Scharre at<br />

Norwich University during the Norwich<br />

University Military Writers’ Symposium,<br />

Sept. 24-25, 20<strong>19</strong>, in Northfield, Vermont.<br />

On Wednesday, Sept. 25, from 2 – 3:30<br />

p.m. Scharre will join Benedetta Berti and<br />

Peter Warren Singer for a moderated panel<br />

discussion, “Warfare in the 21st Century:<br />

Future Battlegrounds.” The panel discussion<br />

will be live-streamed on the Peace and War<br />

Center site at: https://www.norwich.edu/<br />

pawc. A book signing event will follow the<br />

panel from 3:30 – 4:30.<br />

Later on Wednesday evening, Singer will<br />

give a Todd Lecture presentation on the new<br />

weaponization of social media in Mack Hall<br />

Auditorium at 7 p.m. That event will be livestreamed<br />

at the Todd Lecture website:<br />

Leahy Announces $9.5 Million CDC Grant to Improve<br />

Tracking and Prevention Of Opioid-Related Overdoses<br />

Senator Patrick Leahy (D-Vt.), Vice<br />

Chairman of the Senate Appropriations<br />

Committee, Tuesday announced that the<br />

Vermont Department of Health will receive<br />

a three-year, $9.5 million grant from the<br />

Centers for Disease Control and Prevention<br />

to support a comprehensive statewide<br />

response to opioid-related overdoses, while<br />

strengthening Vermont’s prevention efforts.<br />

The grant will increase the state’s ability<br />

to track and respond to overdoses, including<br />

those resulting in death; strengthen<br />

Vermont’s Prescription Drug Monitoring<br />

System, and provide overdose prevention<br />

trainings around the state, working with<br />

local communities – including libraries – to<br />

better identify overdose risks and strengthen<br />

outreach efforts.<br />

Leahy said: “I’m proud of the work our<br />

state has done to tackle the opioid epidemic.<br />

This grant will enable the Vermont<br />

Department of Health and its partners to<br />

take that work to the next level, responding<br />

in real time to overdose cases and supporting<br />

prevention efforts in our communities.<br />

We know what works, but we must make<br />

sure that knowledge is reaching even our<br />

smallest towns and villages. The risks posed<br />

by opioids knows no bounds.”<br />

This year’ symposium is presented in<br />

partnership with Norwich University’s Todd<br />

Lecture Series. The Todd Lecture Series is<br />

named in honor of retired U.S. Army Major<br />

General Russell Todd and his late wife,<br />

Carol, in gratitude for their dedicated service<br />

to the university. General Todd, a <strong>19</strong>50 graduate<br />

of the university, also serves as president<br />

emeritus. With this series, Norwich<br />

brings national thought leaders from business,<br />

politics, the arts, science, the military<br />

and other fields and endeavors to its<br />

Northfield campus.<br />

Founded in <strong>19</strong>96 by Norwich alumnus and<br />

historian Carlo D´Este ’58 and renowned<br />

author W.E.B. Griffin, the Norwich<br />

University Military Writers’ Symposium has<br />

brought more than 150 authors, historians,<br />

and filmmakers to Norwich University in<br />

Northfield, Vermont. The symposium is the<br />

only program of its kind at an American university.<br />

The Colby Symposium is a Norwich<br />

University Peace and War Center signature<br />

event, and is generously supported by the<br />

Pritzker Military Museum & Library in<br />

Chicago, Illinois, with funding through the<br />

Pritzker Military Foundation.<br />

About the Pritzker Military Museum &<br />

Library<br />

The Pritzker Military Museum & Library<br />

is located in downtown Chicago, Ill. Open to<br />

the public, the Museum & Library features<br />

an extensive collection of books, programs,<br />

artifacts, and rotating exhibits covering<br />

many eras and branches of the world’s military<br />

that is available to visitors in person and<br />

online. Opened in 2003, the Museum &<br />

Library is a center where citizens and service<br />

members come together to learn about military<br />

history and affairs. Each year, the<br />

Museum & Library awards the prestigious<br />

Pritzker Military Museum & Library<br />

Literature Award for Lifetime Achievement<br />

in Military Writing to recognize a living<br />

author who has made a lifetime contribution<br />

to the understanding of military history<br />

affairs. The Museum & Library is supported<br />

by its members and sponsors.<br />

public health challenge of our time,” said<br />

Health Commissioner Mark Levine, MD.<br />

“Over the past five years we have built a<br />

strong intervention, prevention and treatment<br />

infrastructure for getting Vermonters<br />

the supports and services they need. With<br />

thanks to Senator Leahy, this grant will allow<br />

us to ensure our prevention programming<br />

and policies are driven by the most comprehensive<br />

and current data available.”<br />

The CDC grant, nearly $3.2 million a year<br />

over three years, will also allow the Health<br />

Department to conduct a thorough review of<br />

2018 drug-related fatalities and see where<br />

those who died had previous interactions<br />

with state systems. Vermont recorded <strong>11</strong>0<br />

opioid-related deaths in 2018, up slightly<br />

from 108 deaths in 2017.<br />

Collecting and sharing information on<br />

overdose cases in a timely manner can also<br />

result in public warnings where one community<br />

may be experiencing a highly lethal<br />

strain of fentanyl or heroin, Leahy noted.<br />

“We know we cannot rid our communities<br />

of these deadly drugs, but we know that<br />

sounding the alarm early can often save<br />

lives,” said Leahy, who worked to include<br />

$475 million in the 20<strong>19</strong> Labor, Health and<br />

Human Services spending bill in support of<br />

the CDC’s overdose prevention work.<br />

As of September 1, you must be 21 to<br />

purchase and possess tobacco products<br />

Raising the age at which Vermonters can<br />

purchase and possess tobacco products from<br />

18 to 21 will help Vermont make strides against<br />

tobacco use, especially for youth.<br />

This change aims to:<br />

<br />

<br />

<br />

<br />

<br />

Reduce smoking rates<br />

Reduce the likelihood of addiction<br />

Protect developing brains<br />

Reduce social sources of tobacco products<br />

Protect teens from harmful substances from vaping aerosol including<br />

nicotine and other toxic chemicals.<br />

Speaker, Carleton Young states: The background to my story<br />

is that about twelve years ago, after my parents had passed<br />

away, I was clearing out their house in Pittsburgh and was<br />

surprised to find a very old wooden box in the attic. Inside<br />

the box was an enormous collection of about 250 letters<br />

written home by two Vermont brothers as they fought in the<br />

Civil War. The two soldiers were from Williamstown and<br />

had attended Barre Academy on the site of the original<br />

Spaulding High School (now of course the Vermont History<br />

Center). There are also many close ties to Northfield with<br />

young men from the area joining the Vermont Brigade and<br />

Norwich University graduates serving as officers.<br />

It turned out that the two soldiers wrote very descriptive<br />

letters about their experiences during the war. They were<br />

members of the Vermont Brigade, the only brigade in the<br />

Union Army consisting of men from only one state. This<br />

brigade became renowned for their courage and fighting<br />

ability. They fought in many of the most famous battles of<br />

the Civil War, and suffered more casualties that any other<br />

brigade in the war.<br />

After discovering the letters home of these two brothers,<br />

for more than a decade I visited battlefields to retrace the<br />

the Jeudevine Library Expansion Fund. Admission is by<br />

There are many Camino routes throughout Europe and<br />

the Camino Frances, which has been a pilgrim route for over<br />

1,000 years, has become the most popular route to Santiago.<br />

Starting in France they climbed over the Pyrenees and continued<br />

west through the Basque country, the Rioja region,<br />

Leon e Castilla and Galicia to Santiago de Compostela and<br />

steps of these soldiers during the war. Based on this research,<br />

I published the book Voices From the Attic: The<br />

Williamstown Boys in the Civil War. The publication of the<br />

book was followed by many positive reviews. For example,<br />

Vermont History said the book “is more than another good<br />

narrative. It is an adventure of historical research and discovery.”<br />

Civil War News said that the book “is a substantial<br />

contribution to the genre of first-person Civil War accounts<br />

becoming so popular today and would make a worthwhile<br />

addition to any Civil War student’s bookshelf.” The Western<br />

Pennsylvania History Journal said that the book “offers a<br />

deeply interesting look into two detailed experiences of the<br />

war which explore the battles as well as life in between.<br />

Unlike other soldiers who may have skipped over tough<br />

details when writing home to families, the brothers did not<br />

shy away from describing the horror of battles, their hardships<br />

in camp, and what they saw as they marched through<br />

the South. More than merely satisfying an interest in the<br />

war, the author demonstrates our surprising connections to<br />

each other both past and present.” As a result of such<br />

reviews, over the last two years I have been invited to share<br />

my story in nine states with more than 150 historical societies,<br />

libraries, and other organizations.<br />

then on to Finisterre (“the end of the world”) on the Atlantic<br />

coast.<br />

Throughout their 40 days of walking they met fellow “pilgrims,”<br />

locals in the tiny medieval villages they passed<br />

through as well as many people whose lives are devoted to<br />

supporting the walkers along their way. They walked through<br />

large cities, small villages and remarkable countryside. They<br />

toured innumerable churches, cathedrals and museums.<br />

Their presentation, through the use of photos and videos<br />

and maps, will touch on their personal experiences, the various<br />

modern interpretations of being a pilgrim and the medieval<br />

and contemporary history of the Camino. They tell tales<br />

of the people they met, and places they stayed and walked by,<br />

the myriad feelings they had, the sense of being in a walking<br />

“river,” and interesting facts and statistics about the Camino<br />

Frances. The talk, which lasts between 45 and 60 minutes is<br />

followed by a 30 minute performance (accompanied by more<br />

slides) of medieval and traditional music from northern<br />

Spain on voices, Galician bagpipes, harp, lute, guitar, recorders,<br />

whistle and clarinet. It concludes with an informal question<br />

and answer period.<br />

Bishop: The Biography of a Poet, was nominated<br />

for a Pulitzer Prize, and the next two,<br />

Dismantling Glory, and An Anthology of<br />

Over decades, I’ve published poems in<br />

the New Yorker, American Poetry Review,<br />

Hunters Reminded of Rules on Importing Deer, Elk<br />

The Vermont Fish & Wildlife Department issued a reminder<br />

to hunters traveling outside Vermont to hunt – and particularly<br />

to Quebec – that the regulation restricting the importation of<br />

deer and elk carcasses, which is designed to protect Vermont’s<br />

wild deer from chronic wasting disease, remains in effect and<br />

will be fully enforced. CWD was found in Quebec last year.<br />

Chronic wasting disease (CWD) is a fatal disease of the<br />

brain and nervous system in deer and elk. Abnormal prion<br />

proteins produce lesions in the brain that cause disorientation<br />

and emaciation in conjunction with other abnormal behaviors.<br />

For the latest information on CWD, check these websites:<br />

www.vtfishandwildlife.com; https://tinyurl.com/y347s7um<br />

and www.cwd-info.org.<br />

Hunters are also reminded that it is illegal to use deer urine<br />

lures in Vermont. Urine lures were banned because of the<br />

potential for CWD prion proteins to be introduced to the environment<br />

through the bodily fluids of CWD-positive ungulates<br />

and then persist in the environment for extended periods of<br />

time.<br />

Vermont rules on importing and possession of deer or elk<br />

from areas with chronic wasting disease (CWD) and captive<br />

hunt areas or farms:<br />

It is illegal to import or possess deer or elk, or parts of deer<br />

or elk, from states and Canadian provinces that have had<br />

chronic wasting disease, or from captive hunt or farm facilities<br />

with the following exceptions:<br />

Meat that is cut up, packaged and labeled with hunting<br />

license information and not mixed with other deer or elk during<br />

processing;<br />

Meat that is boneless;<br />

Hides or capes with no part of the head attached;<br />

Clean skull-cap with antlers attached;<br />

Antlers with no other meat or tissue attached;<br />

Finished taxidermy heads;<br />

Upper canine teeth with no tissue attached.<br />

• • •<br />

Vermont’s CWD importation regulations apply to hunters<br />

bringing in deer or elk carcasses from the following states and<br />

provinces, which now includes Quebec province:<br />

Alberta, Arkansas, Colorado, Illinois, Iowa, Kansas,<br />

Louisiana, Maryland, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri,<br />

Montana, Nebraska, New Mexico, New York, North Dakota,<br />

Ohio, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, Quebec, Saskatchewan, South<br />

Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, Virginia, West Virginia,<br />

Wisconsin, Wyoming.<br />

“The Fish and Wildlife Department views CWD as the primary<br />

threat to Vermont’s deer herd. For this reason, Vermont<br />

is committed to preventing this disease by regulating the<br />

movement of harvested deer into the state as well as being the<br />

first state in the Northeast to ban the use of urine-based deer<br />

lures.” said Mark Scott, wildlife director. “We remain dedicated<br />

to protecting Vermont’s valuable deer herd for all<br />

Vermonters to enjoy.”<br />

“Hunters bringing deer or elk from any of the CWD-listed<br />

states or provinces into or through Vermont must get them<br />

processed according to the regulation before entering<br />

Vermont.”<br />

Scott also urges hunters to check Quebec’s latest hunting<br />

laws because of CWD.<br />

A fine of up to $1,000 and loss of hunting and fishing<br />

licenses for one year are applicable for each deer or elk<br />

imported illegally.<br />

Vt Fish & Wildlife Installing Water<br />

Control Devices on Beaver Dams<br />

To prevent flooding on nearby roads and<br />

private property, Vermont Fish & Wildlife<br />

staff have installed <strong>11</strong> water control devices<br />

on beaver dams this year throughout<br />

Vermont.<br />

Known as ‘beaver baffles,’ these devices<br />

allow some water to pass through the dam<br />

without breaching it and destroying the wetland.<br />

Fish & Wildlife staff expect to continue to<br />

install additional beaver baffles throughout<br />

the state this year. The baffles are one of beavers are once again plentiful and widespread<br />

throughout the state. However, most<br />

using fences to protect culverts, or placing again. As a result, conflicts between people<br />

Vermont Youth Waterfowl Hunting, Sept. 28-29<br />

A youngster’s first hunt can mark the<br />

beginning of a lifelong passion for the outdoors<br />

and a commitment to wildlife conservation.<br />

There is no finer time to begin this<br />

journey than during Vermont’s upcoming<br />

youth waterfowl hunting weekend on<br />

September 28 and 29.<br />

“Vermont’s youth waterfowl hunting<br />

weekend helps ensure that young hunters get<br />

the quality training and experiences they<br />

need for lifelong participation,” said Fish &<br />

Wildlife Commissioner Louis Porter. “By<br />

design, the youth weekend hunt reinforces<br />

the route of initiation that is critical in<br />

recruitment -- learning from an experienced<br />

adult role model.”<br />

On September 28 and 29, hunters 17 years<br />

of age or younger may hunt ducks and geese<br />

in the Lake Champlain and Interior Vermont<br />

waterfowl hunting zones. The age requirement<br />

is 15 and under in the Connecticut<br />

River zone.<br />

The youth hunter must have a Vermont<br />

hunting license and must be accompanied by<br />

an unarmed adult, 18 years of age or older,<br />

who also has a Vermont hunting license.<br />

Youths 16 and 17 years of age must have state<br />

and federal duck stamps. All youth hunters<br />

must also register with the Harvest<br />

Information Program (HIP) in each state<br />

that they hunt. This can be done on Vermont<br />

On Wednesday, September 18th at 7pm,<br />

Phoenix Books Essex will welcome Nancy<br />

and John Hayden to celebrate the launch of<br />

their new book, Farming on the Wild Side.<br />

Nancy and John run The Farm Between in<br />

Jeffersonville.<br />

Northern Vermont’s Nancy and John<br />

Hayden have spent the last 25 years transforming<br />

their draft horse–powered, organic<br />

vegetable and livestock operation into an<br />

agroecological, regenerative, biodiverse,<br />

organic fruit farm, fruit nursery, and pollinator<br />

sanctuary. In Farming on the Wild Side<br />

they explain the philosophical and scientific<br />

principles that influenced them as they<br />

phased out sheep and potatoes and embraced<br />

apples, pears, stone fruits, and a wide variety<br />

of uncommon berry crops; turned much of<br />

their property into a semi-wild state; and<br />

adapted their marketing and sales strategies<br />

to the new century. As the Haydens pursued<br />

their goals of enhancing biodiversity and<br />

regenerating their land, they incorporated<br />

agroforestry and permaculture principles<br />

into perennial fruit polycultures, a pollinator<br />

sanctuary, repurposed greenhouses for<br />

growing fruit, hügelkultur, and ecological<br />

“pest” management. Beyond the practical<br />

techniques and tips, this book also inspires<br />

readers to develop greater ecological literacy<br />

and respect for the mysteries of the global<br />

ecosystem. Farming on the Wild Side tells a<br />

story about new ways to manage small farms<br />

and homesteads, about nurturing land, about<br />

ecology, about economics, and about things<br />

Stowe’s Brownsville Forest Conserved as<br />

New Addition to State Forest<br />

The Vermont Department of Forests, Parks and Recreation<br />

announced the addition of 758 acres to C.C. Putnam State<br />

Forest in Stowe. As part of the State Forest, the Brownsville<br />

Forest property, as the land is locally known, will be open to<br />

the public and managed by the Department of Forests, Parks<br />

and Recreation.<br />

The Department’s acquisition of this land adds a large<br />

block of forest land to C.C. Putnam State Forest, protects the<br />

headwaters of Moss Glen Brook and multiple beaver ponds,<br />

and provides opportunities for dispersed recreation along<br />

the western flank of the Worcester Range. Looking at how<br />

the property fits in the larger landscape, the Brownsville<br />

Forest acquisition helps to protect a significant wildlife corridor<br />

from the Worcester Range to the Northeast Kingdom.<br />

Partnering with the Department of Forests, Parks and<br />

Recreation, Stowe Land Trust made the acquisition possible<br />

by facilitating the land transfer and raising the funds necessary<br />

to purchase the property, which included a $5 million<br />

anonymous donation through the Vermont Community<br />

Foundation and a grant from the Vermont Housing and<br />

Conservation Board. As a result of this partnership, Stowe<br />

Land Trust and the Vermont Housing and Conservation<br />

Board co-hold a conservation easement on the land. “Thanks<br />

to the broad and deep support from the Stowe area community<br />

and the hard work of our partners, this incredible property<br />

is now protected and will be open for the public to enjoy<br />

for generations to come,” said Stowe Land Trust executive<br />

director, Kristen Sharpless. “It’s a fantastic outcome for the<br />

land and our community.”<br />

Work Together and Take Action to Reduce Carbon<br />

During the Global Climate Strike and Climate Week<br />

Green Mountain Power (GMP) is partnering<br />

with customers and communities<br />

across Vermont to help them with projects<br />

to reduce carbon emissions during the<br />

Global Climate Strike on September 20, and<br />

will continue community initiatives through<br />

September 27. GMP will work with the<br />

communities where its 15 district offices are<br />

located, to develop projects that support<br />

their local carbon cutting actions.<br />

GMP is also increasing incentives for that<br />

week for customers to drive carbon out of<br />

their homes and businesses, by increasing<br />

rebates for electric vehicles, heat pumps and<br />

electric bikes. Customers will be able to<br />

qualify for up to $3,000 for EVs (up from<br />

$2,500) if they’re low/moderate income and<br />

up to $2,000 (up from $1,500) for other<br />

GMP customers, $650 for heat pumps (up<br />

from $400) and $250 for e-bikes (up from<br />

$200). GMP is also launching a new $50<br />

rebate for electric mowers that will continue<br />

after Climate Week ends.<br />

These programs, encouraged by the<br />

state’s leaders and legislation, and reviewed<br />

by regulators, help increase affordability and<br />

predictability for Vermonters while helping<br />

meet state decarbonization goals. When customers<br />

choose to go electric it helps cut<br />

carbon emissions because GMP’s power<br />

supply is 60% renewable and 90% carbon<br />

free. The switch also directly helps to cut<br />

costs for all GMP customers.<br />

GMP’s Business Innovation Programs<br />

over the last two years alone have helped<br />

GMP partner with Vermont companies on<br />

projects that not only reduce their costs, but<br />

will offset more than 200 million pounds of<br />

carbon. “Without the help from GMP my<br />

business wouldn’t be growing the way it is<br />

now,” said Ben Hills, Owner of Flying Crow<br />

Coffee in Springfield. “The switch to electric<br />

roasting is huge for me, and knowing the<br />

power is 90% carbon free is great,” Hills said.<br />

There are other benefits to going electric.<br />

According to Drive Electric Vermont, driving<br />

an electric vehicle is cheaper than fueling<br />

up with gas and maintenance costs are also<br />

less over the lifetime of the vehicle, making<br />

it a better option for many Vermonters. As<br />

• • •<br />

Affirming the importance of this acquisition, Forests,<br />

Parks, and Recreation Commissioner Michael Snyder said,<br />

“Protecting this gem for the public not only provides wonderful<br />

benefits locally, but it also enhances a significant<br />

statewide asset for all Vermonters and our guests to enjoy<br />

forever. We’re deeply appreciative of Stowe Land Trust and<br />

the surrounding community for their hard work to make this<br />

happen.”<br />

The Department will begin to manage the land as part of<br />

the abutting C.C. Putnam State Forest and will include the<br />

parcel in its long-range management plan for the Worcester<br />

Range Management Unit, of which this property is now a<br />

part. As this long-range planning process is under way, the<br />

land will be open and available to the public for recreational<br />

uses that are in keeping with protecting the area’s quiet and<br />

remote character, and include hiking, hunting, skiing, snowshoeing,<br />

and wildlife observation. The Department has<br />

already begun assessing the condition of the property’s<br />

access and existing trail network and has determined that a<br />

portion of the trail network is in good condition and will be<br />

open to the public for pedestrian use immediately. Although<br />

mountain biking is a historic use on the property, the trails<br />

do not currently meet standards for sustainable use. All trails<br />

on the property will be closed to bikes until trails can be fully<br />

assessed to determine suitability for mountain biking and<br />

improvements can be made to meet industry standards for<br />

mountain bike trails.<br />

For more information about the Brownsville Forest property,<br />

visit www.stowelandtrust.org.<br />

part of the week, GMP employees will be<br />

offering rides in their electric vehicles,<br />

which represent a range of makes and models,<br />

so people can try it out and learn the<br />

benefits.<br />

“You’re welcome to drive it - but don’t<br />

drive it if you are not ready to trade, because<br />

you are gonna want one,” said 91-year-old<br />

GMP customer Harold Eastman. The<br />

Colchester resident just purchased his second<br />

EV, and lets anyone test drive his car<br />

because he loves it so much.<br />

“It is so exciting to see the progress we are<br />

making in Vermont in partnership with customers.<br />

All working together we can make a<br />

difference in the fight against climate<br />

change, while also offering programs that<br />

drive down costs for all customers. GMP is<br />

proud to partner with communities to assist<br />

them with projects to reduce emissions,”<br />

said Mary Powell, GMP President and CEO.<br />

“The students who have led the Global<br />

Climate Strike this past year are so inspiring<br />

and we’re proud to do our part to support<br />

their message and give back here in Vermont,<br />

while maintaining great service for all of our<br />

customers.”<br />

GMP is also asking communities to apply<br />

to win 40 trees that GMP employees will<br />

plant, free of charge. GMP’s donations,<br />

including the free trees, will be paid through<br />

a charitable fund, and not by customers.<br />

Communities can apply to win the free trees<br />

– by writing a short essay outlining:<br />

• Why the community wants the trees.<br />

• What winning will mean for the community.<br />

• How the community plans to care for the<br />

trees, to ensure they continue to reduce carbon<br />

for decades.<br />

The essay should be emailed to kristin.<br />

kelly@greenmountainpower.com by noon<br />

on Monday, September 16. GMP will<br />

announce the winning community and plant<br />

the trees there on Friday, September 20 during<br />

the Climate Week kick off. For people<br />

wanting to sign up for the EV taxi-like rides<br />

with GMP, please contact graham.turk@<br />

Last Mile Ride Raises $120,000 for End-of-Life Care in Central Vermont<br />

The 14th Annual Last Mile Ride drew record crowds to the<br />

Gifford Green last weekend with 497 community members<br />

walking, running, or riding to support end-of-life care and<br />

special services for central Vermont patients and families.<br />

The event, which included a 5K and family-friendly walk<br />

Friday evening and a motorcycle ride Saturday, raised more<br />

than $120,000, bringing the grand total to more than $880,000<br />

raised since the inaugural LMR in 2006.<br />

It was an emotional two days, as many in attendance participated<br />

in honor of deceased loved ones or family and<br />

friends experiencing advanced illness. Among them was<br />

Eaton Snow of Brookfield, a longtime rider who took part in<br />

Saturday’s opening ceremony from his hospital bed, which<br />

had been wheeled outside by family and Gifford providers.<br />

Unable to ride this year, Snow wished friends a safe journey.<br />

“Eaton was a farmer turned milk truck driver whose quiet<br />

nature includes always having a twinkle in his eyes,” said<br />

Randolph resident Paul Donohue, who captured the moment<br />

in photos he shared on Facebook. “[It was] as poignant and<br />

emotional scene as I’ve witnessed in some time, full of love,<br />

dignity and deep respect. This is why they ride.”<br />

Participants and volunteers wore T-shirts in the event’s<br />

signature orange and black, while others had custom team<br />

T-shirts printed in memory of family members and friends<br />

they had lost.<br />

“Over the years we’ve become more than friends, we’ve<br />

become family,” Gifford Development Director Ashley<br />

Lincoln told the crowd during a barbecue lunch after<br />

Saturday’s ride. “Together, we are a powerful force for good<br />

in a world that can sometimes be disheartening.”<br />

“Throughout the year I hear from folks who share with me<br />

how your generosity has helped them or a member of their<br />

family meet their unique needs during advanced illness or at<br />

the end of life,” said Lincoln, describing the many ways LMR<br />

funds are used, including to cover costs associated with<br />

estate planning and funeral services, special events like weddings,<br />

transportation for visiting family members or for<br />

patients who require appointments with specialists outside<br />

of the region, and more.<br />

In addition to honoring loved ones, the weekend was a<br />

celebration of community. Festivities included live music<br />

Friday with Larry Brassard and the Bear Mountain Jammers,<br />

a photo booth/selfie station for kids of all ages, cornhole on<br />

the green, and food prepared by Gifford chefs and volunteers.<br />

During Saturday’s barbecue lunch, a few hundred<br />

people sang “Happy Birthday” as longtime rider and top<br />

fundraiser Chip Milnor of Randolph was presented with a<br />

cake.<br />

The Results<br />

Among Saturday’s top ride fundraisers were Milnor with<br />

$<strong>11</strong>,990; Elizabeth Longworth with $2,985; Michael<br />

Whitaker with $2,<strong>11</strong>0; Todd Winslow with $1,900; and John<br />

Holmes with $1,575.<br />

Honor America on Patriot Day<br />

September <strong>11</strong>, 2001, was a tragic day in American history.<br />

On that day, nearly 3,000 innocent lives were lost due to the<br />

terrorist attacks in New York City and Washington, D.C. as<br />

well as in rural Pennsylvania, where another plane en route<br />

for more destruction crash-landed.<br />

The indelible images of the <strong>World</strong> Trade Center collapsing<br />

in flames with crowds running for safety, as well as the<br />

ensuing visions of heroes and citizens working together, have<br />

created a lasting impression.<br />

While buildings have been repaired and new sites erected<br />

in the wake of the attacks, there are many ways to continue to<br />

honor the fallen. Patriot Day, which takes place each year on<br />

September <strong>11</strong> to honor those who lost their lives in the 9-<strong>11</strong><br />

attacks, is one such example. The following are a handful of<br />

ways that people can honor 9-<strong>11</strong> victims and their families.<br />

• Celebrate local heroes by visiting or making donations of<br />

food or supplies to local firehouses and police stations.<br />

• Commemorate the events of 9-<strong>11</strong> by observing moments of<br />

silence at key times throughout the day: 8:46 a.m, 9:03 a.m.,<br />

9:37 a.m., 9:59 a.m., 10:03 a.m., and 10:28 a.m.<br />

• Engage in service projects that can help your community,<br />

including its under-served individuals, like veterans. National<br />

Day of Service, which is the same day as Patriot Day, asks<br />

people to do at least one good deed in honor of those who<br />

died on 9-<strong>11</strong>.<br />

• Make a trip to New York City and visit the National September<br />

<strong>11</strong> Memorial & Museum.<br />

• If you display a flag at your home or business, be sure to<br />

My New Leaf Blower<br />

By G. E. Shuman<br />

Early in the summer my dear wife,<br />

who seems to enjoy filling my need<br />

for a new toy occasionally, bought<br />

me a leaf blower. Mine is not an over the<br />

top, gas-powered, blow the lawn furniture<br />

away blower; it’s a nice, fairly quiet, lightweight, rechargeable<br />

machine.<br />

For years I’ve seen other guys around the neighborhood<br />

using leaf blowers but have never been interested in having<br />

one. I always considered them to be just another gimmicky<br />

waste of money that probably worked about half as well as<br />

claimed. I mean, how could you go up against a Vermont<br />

wind with any device you could carry around? Boy, was I<br />

wrong!<br />

Truthfully, I have loved the little thing from the first time I<br />

tried it. Though electric, it is really very powerful, and I guess<br />

I need to get used to the idea that electric cars, airplanes,<br />

dump trucks, and school buses all work as well with a stream<br />

of electrons as their power source as they once did only with<br />

a stream of gasoline. That’s all okay with me, as long as my<br />

first electric car performs as well as my new toy does.<br />

No joke, (Okay, maybe a little joke.) I think the claimed<br />

130 mph wind force this tool produces could easily blow the<br />

fleas right off your dog’s back and onto the neighbor’s cat at<br />

twenty paces, if you could separate your dog from the neighbor’s<br />

cat by twenty paces.<br />

I haven’t yet had the opportunity to blow many actual<br />

leaves with my new leaf blower. I have, several times, blown<br />

all the dirt off our long front porch floor and stripped every<br />

grain of sand, broken twig, blade of grass, and peanut shell,<br />

(Yes, I feed peanuts to the squirrels.) from under our carport.<br />

Clai Lasher-Sommers<br />

Executive Director, GunSense Vermont<br />

Another series of mass shootings – this time in Dayton,<br />

El Paso, Mobile, and Odessa – ushered in the<br />

expected “thoughts and prayers” from elected officials<br />

across the nation. 40 people were killed and 73 more<br />

were injured over the span of just a few weeks in those four<br />

shootings alone. The usual, performative hand wringing<br />

began, and quickly subsided. Gun violence prevention was<br />

discussed only as far as it was politically expedient and not a<br />

second longer.<br />

Once again, we are burying the dead, nursing the wounded,<br />

and trying to comfort the living. Once again we are fully<br />

equipped with the solution, yet held hostage by the gun lobby.<br />

What is abundantly clear is that we cannot expect leadership<br />

from Washington to tackle the issue of gun violence.<br />

Thankfully though, Vermont leaders have, at times, shown<br />

a willingness to stand up to the corporate gun lobby. 2018 saw<br />

a suite of common-sense gun violence prevention measures<br />

passed through the legislature and signed by our governor.<br />

In contrast, this past year was an incredible disappointment<br />

as Governor Scott suddenly fell back in line with the<br />

corporate gun lobby, vetoing a waiting period bill that the<br />

data shows would save lives. I know the governor values the<br />

lives of Vermonters. My hope is that he will come back in<br />

2020 ready to buck the gun lobby and do right by his constituents.<br />

The legislature has shown great tenacity and I applaud<br />

their outspoken commitment to passing gun violence reforms<br />

when they return to the state house in January. Hopefully<br />

this time the governor will do the right thing: sign gun<br />

safety legislation and save lives.<br />

Passing a 72-hour waiting period to purchase any gun and<br />

closing the Charleston Loophole are two meaningful steps<br />

that Vermont legislators should take when they return to<br />

the state house in January that would make our state and<br />

country a safer place. While many are no doubt familiar with<br />

the concept of waiting periods, the Charleston Loophole<br />

remains relatively obscure. Under current law, people who<br />

buy a gun from a licensed dealer have to go through a background<br />

check. The FBI has up to three days to complete this<br />

check. But if it doesn’t complete the check during this time<br />

period, gun dealers are allowed to sell the firearm anyway.<br />

This loophole allowed a white supremacist to purchase the<br />

gun he used to kill nine people at a black church in Charleston,<br />

South Carolina in 2015.<br />

We all know what we have to do, but to do it our leaders<br />

must show courage and listen to the majority of Vermonters<br />

rather than the gun lobby. Because the majority of Vermonters<br />

want gun safety legislation. Poll after poll backs this up.<br />

Vermonters, like Americans everywhere, have had enough.<br />

Enough of the fear, the bloodshed, the dead, the wounded,<br />

and the excuses. We want our children, our families and our<br />

neighbors to live without fear of being shot. We want to continue<br />

the great tradition Vermont has of leading the country,<br />

of being brave in the face of adversity, and of choosing our<br />

people over special interests.<br />

It’s very satisfying to me, to get these things done without a<br />

broom, shovel, rake, or backache being involved.<br />

One time recently, (Please don’t tell my wife.) I actually<br />

opened the kitchen door and blew all the sand from the tile<br />

floor back out onto the driveway, where it belongs. (No one<br />

ever called me stupid. Okay, well, maybe a few people have.)<br />

So far, as said, I have blown away few leaves, but can hardly<br />

wait to do so. If the leaves don’t fall soon, I might just point<br />

the blower up at our trees and hurry them along a bit. I’ve<br />

been thinking that if all leaf blower enthusiasts in Vermont<br />

(Okay, a better word might be owners. I’m probably the only<br />

enthusiast.) did the same, perhaps we’d hurry the season<br />

along a bit too, and end up with an early spring. No, huh?<br />

Still, that does give me another idea. Don’t be surprised if<br />

you drive by my house some dark night this winter and see<br />

me out in the driveway, leaf blower raised high, coaxing the<br />

gently falling snow over onto the neighbor’s cat.


Vermont Launches Data-Driven Review of State’s Criminal Justice System<br />

The Justice Reinvestment II Working Group, which was<br />

created by Governor Phil Scott in Executive Order 03-<strong>19</strong>,<br />

held its first meeting on August 26 to begin a data-driven<br />

approach to analyze and address challenges in the state’s<br />

adult criminal justice system.<br />

The review is part of Vermont’s participation in the Justice<br />

Reinvestment Initiative, a federally funded process aimed at<br />

helping states get maximum value out of their corrections<br />

spending and reinvest in strategies that can reduce recidivism<br />

and increase public safety.<br />

The working group spans all three branches of state government<br />

and will be chaired by Supreme Court Chief Justice<br />

Paul Reiber. Members include representatives from the<br />

departments of corrections, health, mental health and public<br />

safety, the legislature, the attorney general’s office, the<br />

ACLU of Vermont and the Vermont Network Against<br />

Domestic and Sexual Violence, as well as the executive<br />

director of racial equity and executive director of state’s<br />

attorneys and sheriffs.<br />

“Vermont has been a leader in pursuing policy interventions<br />

that improve public safety and public health outcomes<br />

for our citizens, and this work is particularly important as<br />

the opioid epidemic continues to impact our state,” Governor<br />

Scott said. “This initiative will ensure we build on progress<br />

while providing a detailed picture of criminal justice trends<br />

to help us establish a coordinated response to Vermont’s<br />

most critical public safety concerns.”<br />

The Council of State Governments (CSG) Justice Center<br />

presented its initial analyses of the state’s criminal justice<br />

system. The briefing showed that Vermont’s prison population<br />

remains over capacity despite recent decreases, and<br />

although the state has historically maintained one of the lowest<br />

crime rates in the country, its overall violent crime rate<br />

increased 33 percent between 2007 and 2017.<br />

“Justice Reinvestment will help identify ways to leverage<br />

and elevate our use of data,” said Senator Dick Sears, chair of<br />

the Senate Judiciary Committee and a CSG Justice Center<br />

advisory board member. “Through this knowledge, we can<br />

ensure resources are being used effectively and that we’re<br />

advancing policies that improve the quality of life for all<br />

Vermonters.”<br />

CSG Justice Center staff also found that 80 percent of the<br />

total population under state correctional control is on probation<br />

or parole supervision. Despite that hefty portion, the<br />

state is currently unable to identify certain key data, including<br />

how many people on probation are revoked to jail or<br />

prison, what types of violations people are revoked for and<br />

their length of stay when they return.<br />

Impossible Whopper<br />

The Beginning of the End of Factory<br />

Farms<br />

We look back at America before the 13th Amendment with<br />

shame and confusion.<br />

We wonder how intelligent, civilized people could live that<br />

way, tolerating and profiting from exploitation and evil.<br />

Not too far in the future, that’s exactly how our descendants<br />

will look at us and the era of Factory Farms.<br />

The few people who try to defend Factory Farms cite the<br />

biblical precedent of godly humans dominating the beasts of<br />

the earth and owning animals as a matter of course.<br />

And indeed that IS a splendid defense of animal husbandry.<br />

I have no problem with people owning animals. My sister<br />

has chickens and ducks in her backyard and they lead decent<br />

lives. They have a place to roam. They get meal worm treats.<br />

They get love and cuddles if they want.<br />

Factory Farms take something wholesome and spin it into<br />

a tortuous abomination. Factory Farm animals don’t get a<br />

name or love or a moment of consideration as to their comfort<br />

or dignity.<br />

When I am considering buying something with meat because<br />

it is quick and cheap, I imagine that St. Peter were a pig<br />

or cow. That puts things in perspective for me. It reminds me<br />

that the food I was about to buy is clearly not worth the moral<br />

cost. I doubt St. Peter is actually a cow. But he may well be a<br />

pescatarian, and I know that he agrees that buying Factory<br />

produced meat isn’t morally defensible.<br />

The obvious cruelty of Factory Farms will not be their undoing,<br />

however. Environmentalism will ultimately save the<br />

day. Eventually, a sincere Green Party will take power in the<br />

United States and it will ban Factory Farms due to their environmental<br />

impact.<br />

Mass-produced meat is an inefficient use of arable land and<br />

fresh water. That is the ultimate fact that will doom Factory<br />

Farms to the dust bin of history where they belong.<br />

As an animal rights supporter, I have mixed feelings about<br />

this. It is like environmentalists oppose another Holocaust…<br />

• • •<br />

“People being revoked from their probation or parole is<br />

often a key driver of state prison population growth, but<br />

their impact in Vermont is unclear,” said Representative<br />

Alice Emmons, chair of the House Committee on Corrections<br />

and Institutions. “We need to understand how our state<br />

responds to parole and probation violations and whether<br />

that response is adversely affecting our prison system.”<br />

Senator Alice Nitka, vice chair of the Senate Judiciary<br />

Committee, added that “Justice Reinvestment initially<br />

allowed Vermont to avert prison growth and decrease our<br />

prison population, but it’s clear there is still work to do. This<br />

latest effort will provide a comprehensive understanding of<br />

how people are moving through the criminal justice system,<br />

which is critical to addressing the underlying causes of<br />

criminal behavior.”<br />

Justice Reinvestment will also examine the intersection of<br />

the criminal justice system and the opioid crisis. Like many<br />

other states, Vermont has battled significant issues related to<br />

overdose deaths. Between 2007 and 2017, the state’s drug<br />

overdose death rate increased <strong>11</strong>5 percent—from 10.8 deaths<br />

per 100,000 residents to 23.2 deaths. Multiple studies have<br />

indicated that people with opioid addictions who are<br />

released from prison or jail face a significantly higher risk of<br />

overdose and overdose-related death.<br />

“The justice system is at the forefront of the opioid crisis,<br />

and every day too many people end up before us as a result<br />

of substance addiction,” said Supreme Court Chief Justice<br />

Paul Reiber. “If we’re going to make a difference in the lives<br />

of people who struggle with addiction, we need to address<br />

the challenges at the intersection of the criminal justice system<br />

and the opioid epidemic.”<br />

Representative Maxine Grad, chair of the House Judiciary<br />

Committee, added that “the success of this project depends<br />

on people who work on the front lines of the criminal justice<br />

and behavioral health systems sharing input, priorities and<br />

best practices. This is a collaborative effort with all three<br />

branches of government to develop recommendations for<br />

next year’s legislative session so we can deliver results for the<br />

people of Vermont.”<br />

About the CSG Justice Center<br />

The Council of State Governments (CSG) Justice Center<br />

is a national nonprofit, nonpartisan organization that combines<br />

the power of a membership association, representing<br />

state officials in all three branches of government, with policy<br />

and research expertise to develop strategies that increase<br />

public safety and strengthen communities. For more information<br />

about the CSG Justice Center, visit www.csgjusticecenter.org.<br />

but only because my dead body would pollute a river.<br />

Hey, I’m so glad you are on my side. We need all the allies<br />

we can get. But – yikes – we believe in our cause for very different<br />

reasons.<br />

That brings me to the Impossible Whopper. No matter<br />

how bad the meat industry is for the planet, people are only<br />

going to let the environmentalists ban Factory Farms when<br />

science has come up with a decent fake meat. And, happily,<br />

that day has come.<br />

I have eaten a few Impossible Whoppers. And I can report<br />

that they are perfectly fine. They are edible and mediocre –<br />

just like any other burger.<br />

That’s the absurd tragedy of Factory Farms. Hundreds of<br />

millions of animals are being tortured so we can eat boring<br />

food that is not particularly tasty or nourishing.<br />

If a master chef wants to serve her award-winning filet mignon,<br />

she should still do it. She just needs to have a little farm<br />

behind her restaurant with a few pet cows. As for McDonald’s,<br />

it could switch from mediocre Big Macs to mediocre<br />

veggie Big Macs and we practically wouldn’t know the difference.<br />

But history would know the difference.<br />

Lincoln, Grant, and the Union soldiers are remembered<br />

as heroes to this day because they sacrificed to defend those<br />

who couldn’t defend themselves. Someday, those who work<br />

to eliminate Factory Farms will be remembered as the greatest<br />

heroes of the mid-21st Century.<br />

The Ed Larkin Contra Dance group gave a demonstration<br />

of the old time dancing and then invited guests to join them<br />

on the dance floor for dance lessons. This was followed by ice<br />

cream with strawberries, hot fudge, and cake.<br />

• • •<br />

ARIES (March 21 to April <strong>19</strong>) It<br />

might not be wise to pursue goals<br />

involving others, unless you can<br />

stop impulsively rejecting new<br />

ideas. Either open your mind or<br />

wait until next week, when this “ornery” mood passes.<br />

TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) It’s a good time for the<br />

Bovine to be creative and practical for yourself and your<br />

surroundings. Shop wisely, not impulsively, and keep<br />

your Bull’s eye focused on quality, not quantity.<br />

GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) You should feel more confident<br />

about moving ahead with plans that had to be delayed<br />

by an unexpected turn of events. Also, family matters<br />

might need more time than first anticipated.<br />

CANCER ( June 21 to July 22) Be considerate of others<br />

as you move into a new area in your professional life.<br />

Take time to meet people and discuss mutual goals. The<br />

more you get to know each other, the better.<br />

LEO ( July 23 to August 22) Creating a fuss could get<br />

your ideas noticed quickly. But it would be best to present<br />

your case, and then wait for a reaction to follow in<br />

due course, rather than try to force it to happen.<br />

VIRGO (August 23 to September 22) Unkept promises<br />

might cause plans to go awry this week. You can either<br />

grumble about people “letting you down” or find a way<br />

to make the best of it and move on. The choice is yours.<br />

LIBRA (September 23 to October 22) Putting off making<br />

a commitment early in the week could be a good move.<br />

Best to act when you know you’re making an informed<br />

decision. Expect more facts to emerge by the week’s end.<br />

SEPTEMBER BIRTHDAY PLANNER | THE WORLD<br />

Birthday Party Pointers to Make Kids, Parents Happy<br />

Childhood is filled with many mem<br />

orable moments. mong the more<br />

memorable are childrens birthday<br />

parties. uring their childrens<br />

formative years, parents may wrestle with<br />

ideas, themes, etiuette, and more as they<br />

plan birthday parties to remember. osting<br />

birthday parties that touch on all the right<br />

notes can be easier if parents follow a hand<br />

ful of strategies that many parents have been<br />

employing for years.<br />

• Involve your child. Chances are your son or daughter has<br />

been plotting out ideas for his or her party since last year’s<br />

festivities ended. Ask questions about what he or she would<br />

like to do this year. Seek your child’s input on the guest list<br />

and preferred theme. Playing an active roll in party planning<br />

can make kids even more excited about their birthday parties.<br />

• Focus on fun and making your child feel special. Some<br />

parents feel birthday parties must be expensive and allencompassing<br />

bashes. But many children simply want parties<br />

that allow them to participate in an activity they enjoy, eat<br />

sweets and share the experience with their closest friends.<br />

Recognizing this can help parents keep their workloads and<br />

budgets in check.<br />

• Trim the guest list. Parents should not feel the need to invite<br />

every acquaintance to their children’s birthday parties. Parents<br />

understandably don’t want to exclude or offend anyone<br />

by leaving them off the guest list. However, try to limit the<br />

guests to around 10, including the guest of honor. This makes<br />

the entire party more manageable.<br />

• Keep it quiet. Make sure your child avoids bragging about<br />

the party at school or at extracurricular activities. Doing so<br />

many offend those classmates who are not on the guest list.<br />

Send invites directly to homes rather than distributing them<br />

at school so that no one feels excluded.<br />

Horoscopes continued from previous page<br />

kindness on your part could take on special meaning this<br />

week. Also, look for signs of upcoming changes in both your<br />

personal and professional relationships.<br />

SAGITTARIUS (November 22 to December 21) Many of the<br />

tougher communication barriers between you and others in<br />

the workplace or at home could begin breaking down this<br />

week. Expect some surprises to emerge.<br />

CAPRICORN (December 22 to January <strong>19</strong>) Your “tough<br />

love” attitude toward someone you care for could be misunderstood.<br />

Try to be less judgmental and show more consideration<br />

in the way you relate to that person.<br />

AQUARIUS ( January 20 to February 18) An unexpected<br />

workplace challenge could be daunting. But take what you<br />

know (and you know more than you realize) and apply it to<br />

the problem, and you should see positive results.<br />

PISCES (February <strong>19</strong> to March 20) Recent relationship<br />

changes for both single and paired Pisces continue to influence<br />

much of your week. Keep your focus on developing the<br />

positive aspects as you move along.<br />

BORN THIS WEEK: You set your goals with assurance<br />

and influence others to follow suit. You<br />

would be an excellent philosopher and teacher.<br />

(c) 20<strong>19</strong> King Features Synd., Inc.<br />

• Develop backup plans. There’s no accounting for the<br />

weather, illness, venue cancellations, or food flops. Always<br />

have a plan B (and, ideally, a plan C and plan D) so that the<br />

kids can stay entertained.<br />

• Encourage drop-and-go. Hosting young children can be<br />

stressful. And when parents attend the party as well, entertaining<br />

duties expand to an entirely different level. Recruit<br />

another helper or two and be sure parents know you are comfortable<br />

with them not staying for the party. They may even<br />

appreciate your looking after their children for a few hours.<br />

• • •<br />

• Plan for additional guests. Part of planning for the unexpected<br />

includes being able to accommodate a few extra children.<br />

You never know when a sibling will have to tag along<br />

or a last-minute invite pops up, so keep some extra snacks<br />

and favors on hand just in case.<br />

• Open gifts after guests leave. Opening gifts is time-consuming,<br />

and young children may not be adept at filtering<br />

their comments. No one should go home feeling their gift<br />

was not appreciated.<br />

Planning for a Fun, Successful Celebration<br />

Celebrations are a large part of people’s lives. Many people<br />

commemorate key moments — from birthdays to anniversaries<br />

to graduations — with parties. While celebrations<br />

may seem like a fine idea, there’s no denying that throwing a<br />

party where everyone has fun requires a lot of work.<br />

When planning a party, hosts must consider a number<br />

of factors, including their budgets. While guests are a key<br />

ingredient to fun, successful parties, hosts can take the following<br />

steps to further increase their chances of throwing a<br />

bash to remember.<br />

• Start planning early. A party-planning checklist can help<br />

hosts stay organized and ensure that even the smallest detail<br />

isn’t forgotten. Writing ideas down on paper and having<br />

a tangible checklist can make it much easier to organize a<br />

party.<br />

• Pick a theme for cohesion. Party themes need not include<br />

something over the top, such as costumes. The right theme<br />

can be as simple as choosing a color scheme or uniting element<br />

that connects all of the components of the party. Once<br />

you have a theme in mind, you can start compiling all of the<br />

details and supplies, which can make shopping easier and<br />

more efficient.<br />

• Create a festive atmosphere. Think about the ways you can<br />

enliven the atmosphere to make it more inviting for guests.<br />

Appeal to guests’ senses by employing lighting, sound and<br />

scents. One easy way to set the tone for the party is to have<br />

a well-thought-out playlist that’s timed to coordinate with<br />

the elements of your party. Keep music low at the start of the<br />

party and during the meal to facilitate conversation. As the<br />

party progresses, increase the volume of the music and select<br />

music with an upbeat tempo.<br />

• Create a guest book. Give guests the opportunity to share<br />

their sentiments no matter the event. Place a guest book<br />

where guests can easily see it, and encourage them to jot<br />

down a few words for the guest(s) of honor. This can serve<br />

as a nice memento in the years to come.<br />

• Offer a self-serve bar. A self-serve bar cuts down on the<br />

work hosts must do. Be sure to keep an eye on guests’ alcohol<br />

consumption, and have a plan in place to help guests who<br />

might overindulge. Keep the contact information for local<br />

taxi companies handy just in case a guest needs a ride home.<br />

“Rocketman” (R) -- It’s a<br />

musical. But if you’re<br />

thinking it will be along<br />

the lines of 2018’s<br />

“Bohemian Rhapsody,”<br />

the opening scene will<br />

dispel you of that notion<br />

immediately. Taron Egerton stars as Elton John -- and<br />

yes, he’s doing the singing, and wow! The emotional<br />

journey has humble beginnings: Elton John-to-be is<br />

Reginald Dwight, a sweet boy with a cold father, a narcissistic<br />

mother and a talent for the piano, fostered by his<br />

grandmother. What follows is his establishment as a<br />

musician, his partnership with lyricist Bernie Taupin<br />

( Jamie Bell) and eventually a meteoric rise as a groundbreaking<br />

performer who pushed the limits of the word<br />

ostentatious. The songs are great and well-performed,<br />

and the cast is lovely.<br />

“Secret Life of Pets 2” (PG) -- Just when the neurotic<br />

Max (now voiced by Patton Oswalt) was getting used to<br />

another dog in the family, along comes a baby to look<br />

after! When his family sets off for a visit to the country, a<br />

sheepdog named Rooster (Harrison Ford) teaches Max<br />

to find his inner courage in the face of change. Back at<br />

home, Snowball the bunny (Kevin Hart), now a pet with<br />

delusions of being a superhero, pairs with a Shi Tzu<br />

named Daisy (Tiffany Haddish) to rescue an adorable<br />

white tiger named Hu. Meanwhile Gidget ( Jenny Slate),<br />

a high-energy Pomeranian, hilariously must transform<br />

herself into a cool cat to recover Max’s prized Busy Bee.<br />

All these storylines converge in a chuckle fest of an ending<br />

that the kids will mightily enjoy.<br />

“Godzilla: King of the Monsters” (PG-13) -- A battle of<br />

both monsters and ecological viewpoints, “King of the<br />

Monsters” follows the efforts of a fringe wing of scientists<br />

who seek to unleash the power of the Titans -- ancient,<br />

mountain-sized monsters -- in a dubious plot to heal the<br />

planet. When a three-headed alpha Titan is loosed from<br />

an icy stronghold, it will take a Titan to take it down.<br />

Enter Godzilla. Interspersed among monster battles, it<br />

stars Vera Farmiga and Kyle Chandler as Emma and Mark<br />

Russell, divorced scientists with opposed philosophies,<br />

and Millie Bobby Brown as their conflicted daughter.<br />

POETRY CORNER<br />

So Much – Part II<br />

By Kimberly Madura<br />

For D.<br />

Once upon a time<br />

there were two<br />

there was so much between them,<br />

no one on the outside<br />

would ever understand<br />

And now it is autumn, years later<br />

and all that there is<br />

so much of, is tremendous pain<br />

Then comes a reckoning<br />

a permanent ending<br />

between one who asserted moral integrity<br />

and one who is lost<br />

Now it is finished,<br />

complete.<br />

And they did not<br />

live happily ever after,<br />

after all.<br />

What Remains<br />

By Kimberly Madura<br />

So much is lost, so much has changed<br />

I am most interested in what still remains<br />

Some things were lost to time,<br />

Some to chaos, others to indifference<br />

Most difficult of all was what was lost in pain<br />

But then there still is what remains<br />

Mass Killings<br />

By Todd Washburne<br />

Oh what pain!<br />

Oh the horror of mass murder!<br />

Why I ask myself?<br />

Why the hatred towards one another?<br />

Why are we feeding extremists through the media and the net?<br />

It is the fuel they need to inflame their hate filled brains.<br />

How can one love their own children and then,<br />

Filled with unreasonable hatred towards anyone that is not white,<br />

Kill and kill and kill again?<br />

Mothers and their beloved children murdered.<br />

How, I ask myself, can anyone look in the mirror<br />

And not see the reflection of insanity and evil?<br />

My Dirty Chores<br />

By Todd Washburne<br />

I live in Calais on a farm<br />

It is not a very big farm.<br />

The animals are plentiful.<br />

We have cows, goats, pigs, ducks, and<br />

Chickens of many breeds and lay different color eggs<br />

Duck, ducks,<br />

You waddle and quack and chase everyone.<br />

What great guard dogs!<br />

But they are ducks and I have to feed them.<br />

So come on over and duck is on the top of the menu!<br />

The cows stink and I have to feed them, and<br />

Clean the damn stalls and listen to their farts.<br />

And I will enjoy the next steak thinking of them!<br />

The pigs are pigs. They lay in their own slop.<br />

Slop is garbage that is left out for them to eat,<br />

Now doesn’t that sound appetizing?<br />

Yum, yum let’s eat some bacon.<br />

Goats, goats are noisy and really useless.<br />

They run all over eating this and that,<br />

And poop everywhere.<br />

We do not drink their ilk as the taste of it<br />

Is almost as bad as their smell.<br />

So goats why do I feed you?<br />

GO FIGURE<br />

The idea of Go Figure is to arrive at the figure given at<br />

the bottom and right-hand columns of the diagram by<br />

following the arithmetic signs in the order they are given<br />

(that is, from left to right and top to bottom). Use only the<br />

numbers below the diagram to complete its blank<br />

squares and use each of the nine numbers only once.<br />

Things to consider before warming up next<br />

to your first fire this winter<br />

A fi replace can be a great place for families to gather.<br />

warm fire can make even the coldest winter day more enjoyable. Fireplaces may not<br />

get much use in spring or summer, but come late fall and throughout the winter, the<br />

Before fireplace season hits full swing, homeowners<br />

might want to brush up on a few fireplace facts so they can<br />

safely enjoy nights spent sitting by the crackling flames.<br />

The Chimney Safety Institute of America advises homeowners<br />

with fireplaces to hire a CSIA-certified chimney<br />

sweep to clean their fireplaces. After a lengthly period of<br />

non-use, various issues could be affecting the chimney,<br />

many of which might not be noticeable to an untrained<br />

eye. Professional, certified chimney sweeps have extensive<br />

knowledge of fireplaces, making them valuable resources<br />

who can let homeowners know if any safety issues developed<br />

since fireplaces were last used. The National Protection<br />

Agency recommends that chimneys be swept at least<br />

once per year.<br />

A full inspection of the chimney might be in order as<br />

well. Chimney service technicians will conduct thorough<br />

examinations of readily accessible portions of the chimney<br />

exterior and interior and accessible portions of the appliance<br />

and the chimney connection. The CSIA recommends<br />

that homeowners who plan to use their chimneys as they<br />

have in the past request a Level 1 inspection, which will<br />

examine the soundness of the chimney structure and flue<br />

as well as the basic appliance installation and connections.<br />

Technicians also will verify if the chimney is free of obstruction<br />

and combustible deposits.<br />

• • •<br />

Homeowners also should inspect their chimney dampers<br />

before lighting their first fires of the season. Dampers<br />

should open and close smoothly. If not, a service technician<br />

can help fix or replace the damper.<br />

Firewood is another thing homeowners must consider<br />

before lighting their first fires of the season. The CSIA says<br />

that well-seasoned firewood works best, noting that wood<br />

that is not well-seasoned will produce more smoke than<br />

heat. In addition, the home improvement resource This Old<br />

House recommends using dense wood that’s been split and<br />

stored in a high and dry place for at least six months. Oak is<br />

an example of dense wood that, when stored properly, can<br />

make for an enjoyable fireplace experience. Avoid softwoods<br />

like pine. Pine can produce a lot of creosote, which<br />

is a byproduct of wood combustion. Creosote is highly<br />

flammable, and as it builds up in a chimney, the risk for a<br />

chimney fire increases. Choosing the right wood, making<br />

sure it’s well-seasoned and having a chimney professionally<br />

cleaned can reduce the risk of a creosote-related chimney<br />

fire. A Level 1 inspection should determine if there are<br />

potentially dangerous levels of creosote deposits in the<br />

chimney.<br />

Before nestling up to a fireplace this winter, homeowners<br />

should consider a host of factors and safety measures to ensure<br />

their fireplaces are safe and ready for the season ahead.


PET OF THE WEEK<br />

Meet Willow! She is a really sweet cat who<br />

has come out of her shell and no longer hides<br />

under the bed. She loves to be petted and to<br />

play with her toys. Recently, Willow caught<br />

two mice that came into the house, so she<br />

might be a good mouser. She is still shy<br />

around new people. She can be quite vocal<br />

at times. Her long fur and pretty markings<br />

make Willow a very gorgeous gal! She<br />

probably needs to be in a quiet house, with<br />

perhaps another cat for company.<br />

‘Blue John’ Stone<br />

Prices for antiques and collectibles are determined by<br />

many things that change with time -- age, availability, condition,<br />

decorative value, fame of maker, artist or past owner,<br />

and even who is bidding and if there is a bidding war. Most<br />

of these things change with time, so rare Beanie Babies that<br />

cost hundreds of dollars for the few years they were in<br />

demand are sold today in a dump display for a few dollars.<br />

In the early 18th century, an attractive new stone was<br />

found in Treack Cliff Cavern near Derbyshire, England. It<br />

was a rare form of the mineral fluorite with bands of purplish-blue<br />

or yellow. It came to be called “Blue John.”<br />

Matthew Boulton, a famous manufacturer in the 1700s,<br />

made many urns and other decorative objects using Blue<br />

John. The stone became a symbol of British art and was<br />

wanted by the elite. Recently, a new vein of Blue John was<br />

found, the fifteenth known, and new jewelry and objects are<br />

being made. A pair of antique Blue John and rock crystal<br />

obelisks recently auctioned for $2,176.<br />

***<br />

Q: At an antiques show in Pennsylvania, I saw a small<br />

quilt that was labeled a “privy bag.” Of course I know what<br />

a privy is, but I’ve never heard of a fancy bag used to hold<br />

toilet paper in an outhouse. I have a bet with my husband<br />

that it is dealer’s joke term.<br />

A: You lose. There are references online dating back to<br />

2010 for books and exhibits in Pennsylvania that feature<br />

quilted privy bags made to hold toilet paper. Some examples<br />

were at a recent show and one was priced $995. There<br />

are other kinds, some embroidered, some from fancy fabric<br />

and some just reusable cloth food sacks. The quilted ones<br />

have almost all been reported from the Lancaster,<br />

Pennsylvania, area.<br />

Privy toilet paper often was pages of the old Sears and<br />

Roebuck catalog, or squares of newsprint that were stored<br />

on a large nail. A decorative holder was crocheted in the<br />

<strong>19</strong>20s-’30s from directions in some sewing magazines. A<br />

full, round, colorful crocheted skirt was made to fit a small<br />

doll. The legs of the doll were stuffed into the cardboard<br />

center and the skirt covered the paper. It was kept near the<br />

seating area. A few outhouses left in the United States today<br />

are in camping and hiking areas. The parks furnish a portable<br />

biodegradable kit that is carried out of the park at the<br />

end of the hike.<br />

NOW HERE’S A TIP<br />

By JoAnn Derson<br />

* Mirrors make a room feel larger, because<br />

they reflect space, essentially doubling<br />

the visual area. But for maximum impact,<br />

experts say to hang your mirror on the wall adjacent to your<br />

window, not across from it.<br />

* Lunchbox season is here, finally. If you have an issue with<br />

odors remaining in your plastic food containers, here’s a fix<br />

from B.P. in Alabama: “Fill container with hot water, and<br />

add a teaspoon of baking soda. This should remove smells.<br />

Let sit overnight if necessary.”<br />

* Here’s a way to remove stickers, especially ones that don’t<br />

tear off. Rub labels with straight white vinegar or soak a<br />

paper napkin with vinegar and lay it over the label. Let it sit<br />

for 10 minutes, then remove. You should be able to rub the<br />

adhesive right off. Reapply if necessary.<br />

* Whether you recycle because of global warming, landfill<br />

overload or environmental issues, the planet thanks you. But<br />

remember that recycling is only one part of going green.<br />

“Reduce” and “re-use” are just as important. Choose products<br />

with less packaging. Have small appliances fixed instead<br />

of automatically replacing them. And keep recycling.<br />

Thunder Road, ACT Announce Labor Day Make-Up Date<br />

Thunder Road and American-Canadian Tour (ACT) officials<br />

have announced that the 41st Coca-Cola Labor Day<br />

Classic has been rescheduled for Saturday, September 14 at<br />

5:00pm. The event had been postponed this past Sunday<br />

following an on-track accident that occurred during qualifying.<br />

As part of the rescheduling, Thunder Road’s Barre Granite<br />

Association Championship Night has been moved to Sunday,<br />

September 22 at 1:30pm. All Thunder Road track champions<br />

will be crowned at that event as previously planned.<br />

However, the post-race pit party that was scheduled for<br />
