Phase  II  &  the  public  good If  Vermont  Gas  Systems  thinks  it  has  had  a  rocky  time  with  Phase  I  of  the  Addison  County  pipeline  project,  running  from  Colchester  to  Middlebury,  they  might  want  to  reconsider  their  strategy  for  the  next  leg  of  the  project.  With  Phase  II,  itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  going  to  get  much  worse.  Landowners  along  the  proposed  gas  line  route  in  Phase  II,  running  through  Cornwall  and  Shoreham  to  Ticonderoga,  N.Y.,  have  had  ample  time  to  prepare  for  battle  and  are  privy  to  the  tactics  used  by  Vermont  Gas.  They  are,  as  the  saying  goes,  loaded  for  bear.

7KHUH LV DOVR D VLJQLÂżFDQW GLIIHUHQFH EHWZHHQ WKH WZR SURMHFWV 3KDVH , had  a  solid  argument  for  serving  the  public  good.  Bringing  a  cheaper  and  cleaner  fuel  to  residents  and  businesses  in  Addison,  and  eventually,  Rutland  counties  meets  that  test,  and  the  route  to  get  there  was  basically  the  most  practical  and  straightforward.  That  is  not  the  case  with  Phase  II.  The  stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  objective  in  extending  the  pipeline  to  Rutland  is  to  provide  a  cheaper  fuel  to  stabilize  existing  businesses,  industries  and  residences  in  that  economically  challenged  area.  The  economics  behind  the  public  good  of  that  endeavor  is  solid.  The  price  of  propane  and  fuel  oil  is  currently  running  about  40  to  60  percent  higher  than  natural  gas.  If  Middleburyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  mid-­sized  Agri-­Mark  plant  can  save  $2.5  million  to  $3  million  a  year  in  fuel  costs  with  the  switch  to  natural  gas,  there  will  be  many  similar  businesses  in  the  Rutland  area  that  can  also  save  similar  amounts.  Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  a  huge  incentive  to  stay  in  a  place,  or  leave  if  the  time  to  get  lower  cost  fuel  there  is  too  long.  Ten  years,  after  all,  could  amount  to  a  $30  million  difference  in  fuel  costs  to  a  business.

To  that  end,  the  Public  Service  Board,  the  Department  of  Public  Service  and  state  policymakers  should  reconsider  the  best  interests  of  the  state,  and  perhaps  try  to  imagine  other  solutions  rather  than  running  roughshod  over  Cornwallâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  and  Shorehamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  concerns.  Unfortunately,  state  leaders  are  not  fully  engaged  in  the  controversy,  largely  because  Vermont  Gas  has  been  a  good  corporate  citizen  in  )UDQNOLQ DQG &KLWWHQGHQ FRXQWLHV DQG VWDWH RIÂżFLDOV KDG H[SHFWHG WKH VDPH enthusiastic  reception  in  Addison  County.  Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  not  so,  and  itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  time  state  leaders  took  notice.  Whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  markedly  different  about  Phase  II  is  the  chosen  route  to  IP  is  D ÂżQDQFLDO FRQYHQLHQFH WR 9HUPRQW *DV WKDW KDV QR JUHDWHU SXEOLF JRRG than  to  enrich  the  company  through  a  lucrative  contract  with  IP.  What  is  also  different  about  the  project  is  that  landowners  are  almost  unanimously  DJDLQVW LW DQG DUH PRXQWLQJ OHJDO FKDOOHQJHV 6LJQLÂżFDQW OHJDO GHOD\V DGG costs,  which  will  be  passed  onto  ratepayers.  Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  in  the  publicâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  interest  to  avoid  such  costs.

We  would  hope  state  leaders  would  avert  this  oncoming  train  wreck  by  reassessing  the  public  good  of  the  Phase  II  project,  and  convincing  Vermont  Gas  and  its  parent  company,  Gaz  Metro,  that  the  best  road  to  Rutland  is  due  south  from  Middlebury.  That  might  happen  if  the  PSD  made  D VWURQJ FDVH DJDLQVW D SXEOLF JRRG FHUWLÂżFDWH DQG WKH 36% OLVWHQHG The  state  might  also  strongly  encourage  all  pertinent  partners  that  the  route  from  Middlebury  to  Rutland  should  hone  close  to  the  Route  7  corridor  (using  the  stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  right-­of-­way  whenever  possible)  or  to  work  with  the  VELCO  corridor  used  by  the  stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  electric  utilities.  It  is  absurd  that  Vermont  Gas  has  to  create  a  new  easement  corridor  (an  expensive  and  time-­consuming  process),  when  others  already  exist  and  any  other  route  would  go  over  private  land  to  the  great  consternation  of  those  citizens.  Oddly,  the  state  acts  as  if  its  hands  are  tied  and  that  no  options  are  possible  other  than  following  Vermont  Gasâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;  preferred  proposal.  Rather,  it  demonstrates  a  lack  of  political  will  to  seek  a  more  creative  solution  that  PRUH FORVHO\ IXOÂżOOV WKH SXEOLF JRRG Angelo  S.  Lynn

Letters to the Editor Bible  not  a  good  reference  for  subject  of  abortion In  response  to  Ms.  Jennie  Anne  Fosterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  essay  on  abortion  recently,  I  would  like  to  point  out  some  ironies  in  her  philosophy.  Her  view  is  quite  cut  and  dried.  She  picks  Bible  pas-­ sages  to  support  her  view  of  abortion  as  murder,  but  the  Bible  is  full  of  contradictions.

The  Bible  was  written  by  many  different  men  over  a  long  period  of  time.  Some  stories  were  passed  along  orally  for  years  before  being  record-­ ed.  Not  necessarily  a  reliable  system.  To  me,  it  is  scary  to  base  21st-­century  life  on  stories  written  by  men  two  or  three  thousand  years  ago,  who, Â

according  to  them,  were  inspired  by  God.  Which  ones  should  we  take  seriously?

Ms.  Foster  mentions  the  Law  of  Moses.  Moses  lived  sometime  between  1,500  and  1,300  B.C.  and  wrote  of  events  long  before  his  time.  Supposing  it  is  all  true,  Hebrews  10:28  says,  â&#x20AC;&#x153;Anyone  who  rejected  the  Law  of  Moses  died  without  mercy  on  the  testimony  of  two  or  three  wit-­ nesses.â&#x20AC;?  This  implies  that  there  was  a  death  penalty  at  that  time.  Isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t  that  murder?  Or  is  this  a  part  of  Mosesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;  Law  on  to  be  taken  seriously?  Who  chooses?

Ms.  Foster  quotes  Exodus.  Yes,  Exodus  is  a  wonderful  guide  to  life,  try  these: In  Exodus  21:7,  a  man  could  sell  his  daughter  into  slavery.  In  Exodus  21:2-­4,  a  slaveowner  was  permitted  to  give  a  woman  (any  woman?)  to  his  male  slave.  In  Exodus  21:22-­25,  GXULQJ D ¿JKW EHWZHHQ WZR PHQ WKH pregnant  wife  of  one  of  the  men  is  hit  and  miscarries.  The  hitter  must  pay  D ¿QH WR WKH KXVEDQG EHFDXVH KH KDV been  deprived  of  a  child.  No  mention  of  the  death  of  the  unborn  or  of  the  welfare  of  the  woman  injured.

Recently,  I  was  excoriated  and  exiled  to  Russia  by  a  person  by  the  name  of  R.  Woods  of  Rochester,  Vt.  This  for  having  suggested  in  a  previous  letter  to  the  editor  that  law  enforcement  speed  traps  were  an  invasion  of  privacy.  I  was  going  to  make  a  heartfelt  response  to  him  or  her  except  that  when  I  called  over  to  WKH 5RFKHVWHU SRVW RIÂżFH DQG WRZQ clerk,  I  was  told  no  such  person  re-­ sides  in  the  town.  So  I  will  direct  my  words  to  the  community  at  large. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Restriction  of  free  thought  and  free  speech  is  the  most  dangerous  of  all  subversions.  It  is  the  one  un-­ American  act  that  could  most  easily  defeat  us.â&#x20AC;?  William  O.  Douglas  (the  late  great  Supreme  Court  justice).  He  also  once  said:  â&#x20AC;&#x153;The  Constitu-­ tion  is  not  neutral.  It  was  designed  to  take  the  government  off  the  backs  of  the  people....â&#x20AC;?

whatever  that  may  mean,â&#x20AC;?  Sanders  VDLG Âł$QG WKH QXPEHU RI SHRSOH who  identify  as  Democrats  or  Republicans  is  at  a  historically  low  point.â&#x20AC;?

Sanders  has  not  yet  begun  to  lay  WKH JURXQGZRUN IRU KLV ÂłXQFRQYHQ-­ tionalâ&#x20AC;?  presidential  bid.  For  one  thing,  he  hasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t  decided  whether  to  run  as  an  independent  or  to  attempt  to  cozy  up  with  the  Democrats.  Nor  has  he  raised  any  money.  He  says  he  will  wait  until  after  the  FRQJUHVVLRQDO UDFH WR WDNH those  steps.

In  any  case,  Sanders  says  he  is  worried  about  the  â&#x20AC;&#x153;Nader  dilemma,â&#x20AC;?  i.e.,  any  drag  his  run  would  have  on  Democratic  candidates.

On  the  same  day  Sandersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;  inter-­ view  with  Nichols  was  published,  Ralph  Nader,  the  independent  spoiler  candidate  in  the  2000  presidential  race  with  Republican  *HRUJH %XVK DQG 'HPRFUDW $O Gore,  sent  an  excoriating  letter  to  the  senator  about  his  performance  in  the  Senate  and  his  â&#x20AC;&#x153;unwilling-­ QHVV WR QHWZRUN´ ZLWK FLYLF JURXSV that  would  be  sympathetic  to  his  cause.  For  example,  Nader  insists  that  the  restoration  of  the  mini-­ mum  wage  to  1968  levels,  adjusted  IRU LQĂ&#x20AC;DWLRQ SHU KRXU

Currently  a  Fulbright  scholar  in  Vermont  at  Champlain  College  in  Burlington,  Quawas  is  also  professor  of  American  Literature  and  Feminist  Theory  at  the  University  of  Jordan  and  ZDV WKH ¿UVW WR WHDFK IHPLQLVW FRXUVHV there.  She  has  been  awarded  the  Meri-­ torious  Honor  Award  for  Leadership  and  Dedication  to  the  Empowerment  of  Jordanian  Women  and  was  recently  nominated  for  the  International  Wom-­ en  of  Courage  Award  by  the  U.S.  State  Department.  She  is  the  author  of  a  book  on  Jordanian  women  writers  and  another  on  international  communica-­ tion  and  is  often  invited  to  give  talks  on  Arab  feminism  to  American  del-­ egates  who  visit  Jordan.

Students of the Week from area High Schools Otter Valley Union High School Mount Abe Union High School Otter Valley Union High School congratulates Cortney Poljacik on being named Student of the Week. Cortney lives in Pittsford with her parents, Mark Poljacik and Lorna Poljacik. Her sister, Kelsey, is a sophomore at Cornell University majoring in natural resources applied ecology.

Throughout her high school career, Cortney has consistently made honor roll. She says she is always excited about enrolling in Advanced Placement classes, her favorite one being the AP Biology class she took last year as a junior, as well as the Advanced Anatomy and AP Literature classes she is currently enrolled in.

Cortney has been a three-season athlete since she started attending school at Otter Valley in seventh grade. She has played soccer, basketball and softball, at both the JV and varsity levels.

Last summer Cortney worked in the kitchen at Songadeewin Camp on Lake Dunmore, but this summer she is hoping to work at Rutland Intermediate School with the Tapestry program, where she will be working with kids all day. During her days off she occasionally gets the opCortney  Poljacik portunity to volunteer with her mother, a third-grade teacher at Rutland    O.V.U.H.S Intermediate School, where she has been able to experience what it is like to be a third-grade teacher.

In her spare time, Cortney enjoys reading, baking and being outdoors, whether hiking, swimming, walking her dogs or swinging.

She says she enjoys anything she does outside.

When asked what she has learned from her high school experience, Cortney says, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve learned to be myself, because someone will always be skeptical of what I choose to do, and to make my experience here one that I could enjoy. If I were to give upcoming students advice for high school, I would tell them to make the most of their experience here and anywhere they go, as well as to not worry so much about othersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; opinions.â&#x20AC;?

After high school, Cortney plans to major in secondary education, focusing on English. She says she has always liked the idea of becoming a high school teacher.

Mount Abraham Union High School proudly names Meghan Livingston as its Student of the Week.

Meghan lives with her parents in Bristol. She has three older sisters: Laura will be graduating from Castleton State College in May, Sarah graduated from Ithaca College in 2009 and Chrissy graduated from St. Lawrence University in 2010.

Meghan achieved academic excellence in grades 9-11, making highest or high honors throughout those years. During her junior year, she was invited to attend the Vermont Athletic Directorsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; annual Leadership Conference. This year she is taking AP Biology and AP Calculus as well as an advanced math seminar class.

Meghan played basketball all four years of high school and was captain as a senior. She has played soccer and softball throughout high school and was softball captain as a junior and soccer captain as a senior.

For the past two summers, Meghan has worked at the Bristol Village Creeme Stand. She is a member of the Bristol Federated Church and Meghan  Livingston helps serve at dinner or breakfasts that take place there. This fall, M.A.U.H.S. she helped package meals for children in Haiti. She is also an active participant in YoungLife at Addison County and enjoys going to club time, which is typically once a week.

Outside of school, Meghan enjoys playing basketball, being with family and friends, taking her dogs for walks and running.

When asked to give advice to other students, Meghan said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;I have learned that high school is a place where you learn and grow as an individual, and that you should enjoy every moment because it really is only a short clip of your life when you look back.â&#x20AC;?

After high school, Meghan plans to go to college as a nursing major, and then further her education to become a nurse practitioner. $FFRUGLQJ WR KHU VFKRRO FRXQVHORU $ODQ .DPPDQ ´0HJKDQ LV D FRQĂ&#x20AC;GHQW \RXQJ ZRPDQ ZKR GLVSOD\V GULYH DQG GHWHUPLQDWLRQ in everything she does. â&#x20AC;Ś She is focused, motivated by success, and always gives 100-plus percent. â&#x20AC;Ś She is a quality person who has the ability to be successful at whatever she undertakes.â&#x20AC;?

The  students  created  the  characters  and  plots  and  then  used  mixed  media  including  watercolor,  markers  and  crayons  to  create  vibrant  pictures.  Stories  include  a  caterpillar  who  is  afraid  she  will  never  become  a  beau-­ WLIXO EXWWHUĂ&#x20AC;\ DQG D EXQQ\ ZKR KDV WR learn  how  to  make  friends.

These  books  will  be  shared  and  UHDG DORXG IRU WKH ¿UVW WLPH DW WKH Story  Hour.  All  are  welcome.  Each  student  author  will  receive  a  copy  of  the  book  he  or  she  created.

This  project  was  funded  by  a  grant  from  Neat  Repeats. Â

The Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Dogs are lovers of all things Irish, and believe that there are only two kinds of canines in the world, the Irish, and those who wish they were.

When not out chasing leprechauns, kissing the Blarney Stone, or dancing jigs, they can be found enjoying corned beef and cabbage, soda bread, and their personal favorite, Chicken oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; the Sea. Their more scholarly pursuits include reading John

â&#x20AC;&#x153;Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Haira,â&#x20AC;? Oscar (Gone) Wild, and the Collected Works of W.B. Yeats, Canine Edition.

The Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Dogs leave you with their favorite Irish blessing: â&#x20AC;&#x153;May the chicken be digested in yer stomach before yer owners know ya stole it.â&#x20AC;?
