Town’s $9.7 million capital budget gets OK
By Jeff Gebeau

The eleventh-hour hire of a part-time teacher means, that as classes got underway Aug. 26, the high school would be offering its first-ever Italian language course. Josephine Countryman will teach about 20 students in a single section of Italian 1. The class will run for the entire school year.
“I’m very excited for our department and our students,” said Arturo Branco, chairman of Cheshire High School’s Foreign Languages Department. “I think it’s a great step for our school system to add Italian.” Before the hire, the course’s status was in doubt. The class was listed in the 2014-15 course catalogue, but it had been the previous year also. See Italian / Page 4

Questions arise over selection of firm for pool cover Massachusetts for the New England Patriots’ practice field, he said. Arizon representatives did not respond to requests for comment. Nash also defended Adams, stating that she isn’t a member of the committee, which recommended the deal with Arizon, and didn’t get to vote on its selection. “It’s pretty much a dead issue,” he said. “It’s a personnel matter and beyond that I can’t comment because it’s our policy not to,” Milone said, adding that he wasn’t aware of the existence of the endorsement video until recently. Laskin is troubled by the perceived conflict of interest. “I think it’s definitely wrong for one of the town employees to promote one of the companies that the town is doing business with,” he said. The town’s conflict of interest rules state that “no public officer or employee of the town shall … accept or receive, directly or indirectly, from any person, partnership, firm or corporation to which any decision, per-

Adams didn’t respond to requests for comment. It is not known whether she was compensated for appearing in the video or if any other benefits accrued to the pool or town. The video was removed recently from Arizon’s website and YouTube. Kliest doesn’t believe that Adams intended to do anything improper but said her presence in the video “doesn’t look right.” “I understand why people are concerned,” she said. “If I were her, I probably wouldn’t have done it.”

In March, the council approved the hire of a different manufacturer, Pennsylvania-based Signature Structures, to construct the enclosure, but the company was dropped from the project after it failed to obtain proper bonding. Arizon representatives made a presentation to the pool dome committee in June. Adams and other town officials attended the meeting, which was held in executive session. The conflict of interest rules require town employees and officials to inform Milone if they have a “personal interest” in any matter that is before the town, which it defines as “any interest … which imperils or reasonably appears to imperil the open-mindedness and sense of fairness which a public officer is required to possess.” Employees and officials who violate the ordinance are subject to dismissal or other penalties. Milone described the ordinance as “pretty rigid.”

Some residents question the town’s choice of Arizon Cos. of St. Louis to design and construct a permanent cover for the community pool at Bartlem Park, given that the firm also built the temporary bubble covering that came down in a 2013 blizzard. Arizon installed its bubble in 2012 after heavy snowfall in 2011 caused the collapse of another manufacturer’s bubble. Earlier this month, the Town Council approved a $1.7 million contract with Arizon for the design and construction of a steel-supported dome to replace the bubble. The emergence of an Arizon promotional video featuring Sheila Adams, the pool’s director, has raised further questions. Resident Alexander Laskin, whose child took swimming lessons at the pool this summer, is concerned about the repeat selection of Arizon. “I feel very surprised,” said Laskin, also a pool member. “I’m not an engineer, but it seems strange to me that they
cannot find another company to build it,” “The taxpayers are so tired of this pool,” said another resident Cynthia Kliest. “I don’t blame people for questioning Arizon.” Town Manager Michael A. Milone said the collapse of the bubble in 2013 wasn’t the firm’s fault. “No one came to the conclusion that there was anything defective” about the enclosure, he said. “I don’t know of any (temporary cover) that would have withstood the snow load that night.” Art Crooker, a member of the Public Building Commission and co-chairman of the commission’s pool dome committee, also defended Arizon. “They did good work on the second bubble,” he said. Fellow commission member and committee co-chairman Mark Nash said the bubble was a completely different structure from the permanent, steel-supported dome that Arizon has been approved to build. The company built a similar structure in Foxborough,
colored pencil, felting, Zen & Ink, anime and more. All supplies are included in class cost. For more information, call (203) 272ARTS/2787. Registration is ongoing, and class size is limited.

Opinion As libraries evolve, local facilities must keep up Is a library simply a repository for books? If so, what does that mean for our public libraries, now that Americans are steadily abandoning the Dewey Decimal System for the digital device when they want to access information? Library visits, on the whole, are declining, and have been for a long time. At the same time, downloads of e-books are soaring, so libraries around the country are seeking to reinvent themselves for a new era by adding features for children and teens and offering interesting lectures and surveying patrons on what else they might need or want. Many libraries were built long before the computer
age, though; they were never designed for anything but the orderly storage and quiet perusal of thousands and thousands of books. Still, they’ve been making changes to keep up. Southington’s library, for example, hasn’t been renovated since 1974 and has been called “outdated and inadequate.” Although the library has adapted to the times by offering such services as the Virtual Library — “your one-stop location for free e-books, online courses, research, language instruction and more” — Library Director Sue Smayda would like to apply for a $1 million state grant to go toward the cost of a new building, which is estimated at $13
million. And the Wallingford Public Library, although it was extensively renovated just a few years ago, is looking for “the next big thing,” which may mean turning part of the main floor into a 2,400-square-foot public event space, which could be called “The Collaboratory at Wallingford Public Library.” Library Director Jane Fisher said the estimated cost is $400,000, and the library is applying for a $200,000 grant from the Connecticut State Library. Both ideas have been endorsed by the respective town councils. The Meriden library offers a whole pageful of online services, including Homework Help and Fun and Games, and is doing
an online survey of users’ needs for technological resources. Cheshire promotes services including Library Wish List and Anime Club, and you can send a document from your smartphone to be printed out, then pick it up at the library. Farther afield, libraries including those of the Chicago Public Library system boast digital studios, dedicated teen zones, conference rooms, computer and social media classes, small business and technology centers and 3-D printers. California’s Lunch at the Library program is filling a need by feeding low-income kinds during the summer, when school is out. All of these services are
designed to turn our public libraries into more-essential and livelier public assets than they’ve ever been: true community centers. Meanwhile, the American Library Association is establishing a Center for the Future of Libraries in order to explore directions for the nation’s 9,000 public libraries. Climate change may have killed off the dinosaur, but that doesn’t mean technological change will bring an end to such a valuable and venerable institution as the public library. Not when it’s making a concerted and intelligent effort to adapt to changing times. (An editorial from the Record-Journal.)
Town will join regional coalition By Jeff Gebeau
The Cheshire Citizen
The town has decided to join with 18 other municipalities to form the Naugatuck Valley Council of Governments, a regional planning group. Councils of governments assist with transportation, economic development, land use, conservation, and emergency response. Cheshire is currently in the Council of Governments
of the Central Naugatuck Valley. A 2012 state law consolidated the number of councils of governments. Cheshire will maintain membership in its current council of governments until Dec. 31, when it will be phased out. On Jan. 1 , the town will belong to the new council of governments, along with its 12 co-members in the current one: Beacon Falls; Bethlehem; Middlebury; Naugatuck; Oxford; Pros-

and Bridgeport, and the Capitol Region Council of Governments, which is centered around Hartford. “We didn’t want to be aligned with bigger cities that we don’t have a lot in common with,” said Town Councilor James M. Sima, chairman of the council’s planning committee, which recommended that Cheshire join the Naugatuck Valley Council of Governments. The council voted to approve the move last week. Town Manager Michael A. Milone said that Cheshire has been well-served by its current regional council, so it makes sense to join its replacement. “We’re intimately familiar with them,” he said. Cheshire also is one of the largest towns in its council of governments but would not have that status if it opted to join the ones whose hubs are Hartford or New Haven, he said. Sa m u e l G o l d , exe c u tive director of the Coun-
cil of Governments of the Central Naugatuck Valley, said the regional planning agency has a “long history with Cheshire.” He cited the construction of the Farmington Canal trail in the 1990s. The council is also involved in the New Britain-Hartford Busway project. The new group will help with The Outlets at Cheshire, a northend factory outlet center that town officials hope will be built by the end of 2015. Construction projects on Route 42 and Mountain, North Brooksvale, and King roads also are funded via grants and loans that the local council of governments helped procure, Milone said. The organization also helped Cheshire obtain grants to build sidewalks on West Main Street, as well as do other paving projects, Sima said. Cheshire has also been able to leverage its membership in the regional consortium to get better prices on town supplies, he added.

Osprey Nation initiative helps these birds thrive By Alexander Brash Special to The Citizen
Over the years, residents of Connecticut have been awestruck by the grace and majesty of our returning ospreys each summer season. These beautiful brown and white hawks, which nest along our shorelines and catch fish in our waterways, are one of the state’s most iconic birds. This year, Connecticut Audubon Society worked in partnership with the Connecticut Department of Energy and Environmental Protection to launch Osprey Nation, an essential citizen-science research project, the goal of which is to find, map and monitor ospreys and their nests across the state. In its inaugural year, Osprey Nation brought 160 volunteers together to monitor 360 osprey nests, while the Connecticut Audubon Society also supported the radio-tracking of three ospreys at the mouth of the Connecticut River. We’ve plotted the locations and the data we’ve received on an interactive map, which you can find a link to on our homepage, www.ctaudubon.org. Years ago, this picture would have been gravely different. Osprey populations were declining toward extinction. This decline, not just in
Osprey are making a comeback in Connecticut. Connecticut but throughout the ospreys’ range, was caused by the widespread use of the toxin DDT and the loss of nest sites. A widely used agricultural pesticide, DDT entered

the rivers and Long Island Sound, was absorbed in the fish the birds ate, and caused the shells of osprey eggs to become thin and to break as it interfered with the osprey’s ability to metabolize calcium. Listed as endangered in nearly every state, ospreys began their rebound with the banning of DDT in 1972. That
year was the low point for ospreys in Connecticut, with fewer than 10 active nests. It wasn’t until a decade after the ban of DDT in 1972 that ospreys began to make a comeback. Thereafter, they became a poster-child for conservation as a cleaner environment coupled with an abundance of
new nest sites created by the public led to their resurgence. Today, it is not uncommon to see these beautiful raptors soaring overhead almost anywhere in Connecticut, carrying fish for their young and sticks for their nests. The osprey population is now strong, but Connecticut Audubon Society needs the help of residents throughout the state to ensure that it remains so. We are committed to continuing to work diligently with our team of stewards to keep track of osprey nests, for not only do we revere the beauty of these birds, but their health is a harbinger of ours. Through them we will be attuned to future environmental threats and human health hazards. Ospreys can still ingest DDT on their wintering grounds, so continued careful monitoring is important. Even more critical is that ospreys and the fish they eat from our waters are great monitors for any new and unknown toxic substances that might be out there. Ospreys are our charismatic canaries and are a critical first line of defense in monitoring our environment and ultimate human health. Together, we can continue to be stewards and advocates for these beautiful birds, and help ensure that the wild denizens of our state will have our support as their needs arise. Alexander Brash is president of the Connecticut Audubon Society.

Some of the town’s avid young readers were treated to a special performance recently by Jester Jim, a juggling and beat-boxing comedian from New York. The event was for kids who completed the library’s summer reading program — “Fizz, Boom, Read!” Students in preschool through second-grade had to read a dozen books to complete the challenge, while students in third-grade and above had to read six. A total of 671 children participated in the program. About 150 children and adults attended Monday’s show at the library. Sal Zarra, treasurer of the Cheshire Fire Department, opened the evening. “There are few things more important than developing the ability to read,” he said. After Zarra’s remarks, Jester Jim took over. He explained to the kids that the name of the their reading challenge contains two “onomatopoeias,” “fizz” and “boom,” words that sound like the noises they depict. Jester Jim’s show consisted of beat-boxing, juggling and jokes. Beat boxing is a form of vocal percussion, including drum beats and other musical sounds. He used a “looping pedal” to record and continuously play back his beat-box demonstrations, along with random words and noises from the audience. The comic also juggled a variety of items, including balls, bowling pins, special juggling sticks and mini-plungers. Near the end of the show, he balanced on a makeshift see-saw formed by placing a board on top of a cylindrical tube. Steadying himself atop the homemade teeter-totter, he performed a juggling routine to music. For the finale, he juggled fluorescent bowling pins in the dark. Ava Schiavi, 7, said her favorite part was

the balancing stunt. She was confident Jim wouldn’t fall but didn’t think she could pull off the feat herself. Jillian Milo, 9, liked the beat-boxing the best. She expects that the beat-box number that Jim made up with the help of the crowd will be stuck in her head when she’s playing with her friends. Jester Jim is Jim Maurer, 30, who was raised in Long Island. Maurer, who began juggling at 15, performs about 300 shows per year at libraries, schools and other venues, mostly in the northeast. “It’s geared for families,” he said. Maurer also performs for older crowds at colleges and events for corporations, such as FedEx. He has appeared on an episode of “Honey We’re Killing the Kids,” on the The Learning Channel in which he promoted juggling as a form of exercise.

Cheshire Academy, located in historic Cheshire for 221 years, welcomed John D. Nozell as its 33rd Head of School at the beginning of this new school year. “It is my privilege to join this storied institution at a time of outstanding rigor and growth,” Nozell said. “When I first visited the Academy, I was struck by how closely the values of this community aligned with my own. Cheshire Academy fosters a lifelong love of learning, and encourages students to achieve personal success while still understanding the value of teamwork,“ Nozell said. “At the Academy, students are encouraged to be curious, to exJohn D. plore and experience new things in order to Nozell make meaningful contributions to the world at large. These strengths allows students to lead richer and more fulfilling lives. Enrollment is at its strongest in recent history, and the Academy opens its doors again this year to a diverse and qualified student body.” Continuing programs include the international baccalaureate program, Roxbury Academic Support, and the Art Major program, while also launching a new iPad initiative. Nozell said that he hopes that, in addition to scholastic achievement, that the school has another successful year of athletics after celebrating four championship-winning teams last year and sending nearly a third of graduating seniors off to compete in college athletics. — Submitted by Cheshire Academy.

ymous benefactor. The grant paid for the iPads and part of the cost of the charging carts. Principal Marge Whalen said the additional devices will benefit all 382 students. St. Bridget’s runs from pre-kindergarten through eighth-grade. Students below sixth-grade will now have expanded access to the school’s existing iPads, she said. Assistant Principal Judy Rowinski expects the expanded technology to be employed “across the board” in every area of the curriculum, including science, math, social studies language arts and religion. Teachers attended a day-long, “hands-on” workshop led by a pair of outside consultants on strategies to incorporate iPad use into daily lessons, Whalen said. Romans said the iPads will allow students to research topics instantly and collaborate with students from all over the world who are studying the same subject matter or working on similar assignments or projects.

When Todd Ruggere stops for a beer, he isn’t there to relax. The stop, and specifically the beer, puts Ruggere one step closer to completing his goal of drinking a beer in every town in Connecticut while raising money for charity. The pour tour was completed Aug. 16, at Two Roads Brewing Co. in Stratford, when Ruggere completed his quest to drink a beer in each of Connecticut’s 169 towns and cities. Ru g ge re’s Po u r To u r stopped in Cheshire earlier this year, when he visited CJ Sparrow’s. According to his blog, Ruggere “had a great time talking to the bartender here, and shared a beer with Johno who is a beer distributor in this area.” “Would like to come back here if i can fit it in my schedule. Great little bar!” Ruggere wrote. Ruggere visited Durham’s Time Out Taverne on Sunday, Aug. 3. Ruggere’s goal is to complete the Connecticut tour in 2014, and Durham was stop number 154 of the state’s 169 towns. Ruggere, who lives in

Grafton, Mass., completed what he calls the Pour Tour of Massachusetts in 2013. He had a beer in all 351 towns and raised more than $38,000 for pediatric cancer research at Boston’s Dana-Farber Cancer Institute. As Ruggere described the start of his project, “I was looking randomly at a map of Massachusetts and all the weird town names like Florida, Peru, Washington. I’ve never heard of some of these towns. I thought, I’d like to visit all these towns and drink a beer in all of them ... and I’ve always wanted to raise money to fight cancer. The idea just took off.” Ruggere started with his own town of Grafton and before long he was on his 40th town and getting calls from NBC, CNN, and the Boston Globe. “People love beer and they hate cancer so it’s really the perfect combination,” Ruggere said. Ruggere finished Massachusetts in eight and a half months and is scheduled to finish Connecticut in seven and half months. His last stop will be in Stratford on Aug. 16 at the Two Roads Brewery, which is a sponsor of the Pour Tour. Because of the publicity and momentum, the Connecticut tour will raise more money despite having fewer towns. With 15 towns remaining after Durham, the Connecticut trip has raised more than $42,000 for the Smilow Cancer Hospital at Yale-New Haven. Ruggere has had a beer with a donkey, a llama, and in Hancock, Massachusetts at a nudist colony. Ruggere coordinates his itinerary and collects the funds mostly on his own with the help and driving assistance of a friend. Each bar coordinates its own events for the stop. Some plan a lot of activities such as raffles and contests. Others are more low-key stops to check the town off the list. In dry towns, such as Bridgewater, Connecticut, Ruggere has a beer at someone’s house. The Time Out Taverne doSee Beer / Page 19

Sports Baseball across America: The journey continues By Jim Bransfield
Special to The Citizen
CHICAGO -- I survived the Dan Ryan. That’s the Hell for Leather Expressway that bisects the city of Chicago from south to north. Driving this Demolition Derby is required if getting around the city is an objective; and it was, so I did. This is a great town. It has two baseball teams, one supported by masochists (Cubs fans) the other by realists (White Sox fans). The Cubs fans turn out day after day in big numbers. Oh, not sellout numbers, but big numbers nonetheless. White Sox fans stay home, even though their team is marginally better than the Cubbies. I took in the Orioles vs. Sox game at US Cellular Field. The Orioles, streaking towards the playoffs, beat up on the Sox 5-1 in front of 13,300 mildly interested fans. US Cellular is right on the Dan Ryan and I have no idea if that’s good or bad. The park is actually very nice, albeit antiseptic. The sight lines are great -- I
had a box seat some 18 rows off the field looking straight down the right field line -- and the park is pristine. But it has no character. Yankee Stadium is grand, a la Palace of Versailles. You may not like that, but it’s distinctive. Fenway has charm. Oh, it’s a dump, with some genuinely awful seats, but it has quirks, charm and character. US Cellular reminds me of a hospital. Clean, efficient, boring. Across the street is a wonderful new sports bar, but otherwise the place is smack in the middle of a parking lot. As Gertrude Stein said of Oakland, “there is no there there.” It doesn’t help that the team is not very good. The city, however, is fabulous. I took a day to take an architectural cruise on the Chicago River. The narration of the spectacular architecture of the amazing city was firstrate. The city is stunningly beautiful, especially from the river, around which the city is now focused. Staring up at the Sears Tower from water level, and staring up at the new Trump Tower from water
level is, well, magnificent. And so is Wrigley Field. Oh, I know, the park is 100 years old (It opened three years before my Aunt Marion, now 97, was born) and it looks it. But the concourses are wide, the seats are comfortable -- I had a good one behind the Cubbies dugout -- and the ivy on the wall, the inning-by-inning scoreboard of every game in the bigs and the live singing of Take Me Out to the Ballgame is just amazing. Oh, the Cubbies lost to the Giants 8-3. The game was over in the first inning as the Giants scored four times, but guess what? Most people stayed for most of the game. It’s not like losing is unexpected here. I have seen travel guides that say one must visit Wrigley and, “after the Cubs lose....” suggest other things to do in America’s Second City. Surrounding Wrigley, which is in a residential neighborhood, are some of the best baseball bars and souvenir shops anywhere. Murphy’s Bleachers, behind the center field fence, is off the charts great. I dunno what it is, but the layout -some bars inside, some out-

the heck, I have insurance. I paid my money and when I returned, all was well. I bought a Wrigley Field T-shirt, kind of because I felt I had to. The people were friendly without exception, in the bars, on the streets and in the park. Actually engaged me in conversation everywhere. A tad different than in the Bronx. It may be a big city, but it’s the Midwest and well, the folks are just different. On the day I left for Iowa to visit friends and on to Minneapolis to see the Twinkies, I listened to the Cubs actually beat the Orioles. I wondered if the radio voice would end the game as I had heard said voice does at game’s end. The voice did. Cubs win! It made me smile. Maybe some day, the Cubs really will win. Hey, it’s been only 106 years. Advertisement
HARTFORD ERECTILE DYSFUNCTION CLINIC
Local Doctors Restore
Men’s Sex Life
HARTFORD • A new medical clinic staffed by local physicians has opened in Hartford recently specializing in only one unique, niche area–men’s sexual performance. The Yale Clinic has an amazing offer - first 37 callers receive a free in-office medication dose. Erectile dysfunction and premature ejaculation have long been a problem for millions of men in spite of the popularity of Viagra, Levitra and Cialis. Many men either are not helped by these medications or cannot take them due to medical conditions and adverse side effects. According to The Yale Clinic™ of Connecticut’s Medical Director, Dr. M. Sheldon Polsky, Board Certified Urologist and author of ‘Seven Secrets Doctors and Drug Companies Won’t Tell You About Erectile Dysfunction,’ “Our doctors offer a proven treatment with over two hundred doses of custom blended prescription medication that can help virtually all men regardless of their age or medical history, including men as young as twenty-one to well into their nineties, with diabetes, heart conditions,
prostate cancer, and high blood pressure. All drugs are FDA approved, no surgery is involved and patients will see a licensed Connecticut Physician” Referred to as “the gold standard,” by the International Journal of Impotence Research, “Our treatment allows our local doctors to adjust the dosage for a man’s performance to 45-minutes, an hour, even 90-minutes,” according to Dr. Polsky, “and patients see immediate results in the office. We offer a simple guarantee: ‘If you don’t respond to our medication on the first visit there’s no charge.” With that guarantee, local patients have nothing to lose. The Yale Clinic books appointments far in advance but occasionally can accommodate someone quickly. Yale assures patients of utmost privacy and professionalism and has private waiting rooms and an all-male staff. Further information is available by calling (203) 290-2155. The Yale Clinic of Connecticut™, 2139 Silas Deane Hwy., Suite 201, Rocky Hill, CT 06067. Exit 24 off I-91. Gas reimbursment if more than 60 miles away. www.TheYaleClinic.com

side, tables by the elevated train roaring overhead -- all combine to make this a one of a kind place. The souvenir shops do a brisk business. In many ways, the Cubbies are a national team. Everybody knows about the Cubs. Everybody knows they are awful. Everybody loves the them. An American Mystery. Parking for a Cubs game is an experience. Three blocks from the park I was waved down by a woman who signaled the price was $25. Reasonable, I figured. She passed me on to another person and he ran ahead, waving me down this alley as I followed. He finally had me park behind a line of three- and four-story buildings, by a garbage can. I figured the odds of my car still being there at the end of the game were about the same as the Cubs winning, but what
