By  GAEN  MURPHREE MIDDLEBURY  —  As  the  pace  and  scale  of  solar  development  has  accelerated  in  Addison  County,  com- munities  have  become  increasingly  concerned  about  how  to  regulate  de- velopment  so  as  to  balance  the  need  for  renewable  energy  with  the  desire  to  preserve  Vermont’s  rural,  historic  and  natural  landscapes.  And  the  pres- sure  is  intensifying  as  industry  accel- erates  movement  toward  Vermont’s  goal  of  getting  90  percent  of  its  en- ergy  from  renewables  by  2050. “The  number  of  solar  installations  has  just  kept  growing  in  the  region,  and  the  concern  that  people  have  had  about  their  aesthetic  impact  has  been  heightened  with  that  growing  num- ber,â€?  said  Adam  Lougee,  executive  director  of  the  Addison  County  Re- gional  Planning  Commission.  In  response,  the  ACRPC  is  giv- ing  towns  new  tools  to  address  solar  development  sensibly  and  be  able  to  weigh  in  more  effectively  before  the  Public  Service  Board.

Monkton,  VT  Homeowner  Recommends  Bristol  Electronics We  decided  to  build  a  garage/shop  and  incorporate  solar  panels.  Dave  from  Bristol  Electronics  came  out  to  advise  us  on  our  options  and  helped  us  with  the  correct  orientation  and  pitch  of  our  roof.  Their  prices  were  less  expensive  than  the  competition  and  for  what  I  believe  is  a  superior  product.  The  installation  was  quick  with  no  problems.  Bristol  Electronics  is  a  locally  owned  and  operated  business  that  delivered  great  service  before,  during,  and  even  now  almost  a  year  later. We  have  been  producing  more  electricity  than  we  can  use  since  May  and  banking  the  credit  with  the  power  company.  We  don’t  anticipate  having  to  pay  another  electric  bill.  I  highly  recommend  solar  power  and  using  Bristol  Electronics  to  install  and  service  it.

Doomed  to  repeat  mistakes? Chalk  up  the  muscular  tone  on  the  campaign  trail  concerning  foreign  policy  to  two  factors:  it’s  campaign  season  and  candidates  don’t  want  to  appear  weak  in  the  face  of  Russian  aggression  and,  two,  too  many  have  forgotten  the  nation’s  recent  history  or  never  learned  it  well. Fareed  Zakaria,  foreign  affairs  columnist  for  the  Washington  Post  and  host  of  a  show  on  CNN,  wrote  an  excellent  column  last  week  in  which  he  chastises  the  foreign  policy  establishment  for  “swooningâ€?  over  Vladimir  Putin’s  brash  moves  in  the  Middle  East.  He  cites  several  columnists  and  veteran  diplomats  for  saying  things  like:  “It’s  the  lowest  ebb  since  WWII  IRU 8 6 LQĂ€XHQFH DQG HQJDJHPHQW LQ WKH UHJLRQ ´ DQG Âł1RW VLQFH WKH HQG RI the  Cold  War  a  quarter-Âcentury  ago  has  Russia  been  as  assertive  or  Wash- ington  as  acquiescent.â€? Zakaria  acknowledges  Russia  hasn’t  been  this  aggressive  since  its  involvement  in  the  late  1970s  and  1980s  when  it  invaded  Afghanistan  and  interfered  in  several  other  countries,  but  he  asks:  “Just  how  well  did  that  work  out  for  Russia?â€?  More  importantly,  he  reminds  us  that  political  commentators  and  some  hawks  within  the  diplomatic  ranks  were  similarly  critical  of  the  executive  branch  for  being  soft  and  suggesting  that  Moscow  was  winning  the  Cold  War.  History  tells  us  otherwise.  But  can  we  learn  from  those  lessons? Zakaria  pinpoints  the  current  problem:  “Washington’s  foreign  policy  elites,â€?  he  says,  “have  developed  a  mind-Âset  that  mistakes  activity  for  achievement.  They  assume  that  every  crisis  in  the  world  can  and  should  be  solved  by  a  vigorous  assertion  of  U.S.  power,  preferably  military  power.  Failure  to  do  so  is  passivity  and  produces  weakness.  By  this  logic,  Russia  and  Iran  are  the  new  masters  of  the  Middle  East.  Never  mind  that  those  countries  are  desperately  trying  to  shore  up  a  sinking  ally.  Their  clients,  the  Alawites  of  Syria,  are  a  minority  regime  —  representing  less  than  15  percent  of  the  country’s  people  —  and  face  deadly  insurgencies  supported  by  vast  portions  of  the  population.  Iran  is  bleeding  resources  in  Syria.  And  if  Russia  and  Iran  win,  somehow,  against  the  odds,  they  get  Syria  —  which  LV D FDXOGURQ QRW D SUL]H 7KH 8QLWHG 6WDWHV KDV EHHQ ÂľLQ WKH GULYHUÂśV VHDWÂś in  Afghanistan  for  14  years.  Has  that  strengthened  America?â€? Logic  notwithstanding,  it’s  campaign  season  and  portraying  military  might  seems  to  win  more  supporters  than  advocating  caution  and  dip- lomatic  solutions,  but  Zakaria  poses  this  scenario:  “Imagine  if  today’s  interventionists  had  their  way  and  President  Obama  escalated  force  and  the  Assad  regime  fell.  What  would  be  the  outcome?â€?  He  notes  that  America’s  recent  intervention  in  desposing  dictators  in  Iraq  and  Libya  have  not  gone  as  planned,  and  in  Yemen,  where  he  U.S.  has  supported  regime  change  and  new  elections,  the  results  is  “a  civil  war  that  is  tearing  the  country  apart.  Those  who  are  so  righteous  and  certain  that  this  next  intervention  would  save  lives  should  at  least  pause  and  ponder  the  humanitarian  consequences  of  the  last  three.â€? Zakaria  also  notes  the  similarity  of  today’s  political  climate  with  that  of  the  1950s,  a  time  that  Americans  now  think  of  a  high-Âwater  mark  for  the  country,  but  at  the  time  Washington  elites  were  “despairing  that  Washington  was  pas- VLYH DQG SDUDO\]HG LQ WKH IDFH RI 6RYLHW DFWLYLVP ´ 7KH V =DNDULD FRQ- cludes,  “abounded  with  what  seem  in  retrospect  deeply  dangerous  proposals  designed  to  demonstrate  U.S.  vigor  —  including  deposing  Egypt’s  Gamal  Abdel  Nasser,  military  confrontations  with  Hungary  and  the  use  of  nuclear  weapons  over  Taiwan.  Pundits  were  outraged  that  North  Vietnam  and  Cuba  had  gone  communist,  while  the  United  States  just  sat  and  watched.  “In  the  midst  of  this  clamor  for  action,â€?  Zakaria  writes,  “one  man,  Presi- dent  Dwight  Eisenhower,  kept  his  cool,  even  though  it  sank  his  poll  num- bers.  (The  Kennedy/Johnson  administration  ended  the  passivity,  notably  in  Cuba  and  Vietnam,  with  disastrous  results.)  I  believe  that  decades  from  now,  we  will  be  glad  that  Barack  Obama  chose  Eisenhower’s  path  to  global  power  and  not  Putin’s.â€? :KDW FDPSDLJQV WHDFK XV LV WKDW LW LV YHU\ GLIÂżFXOW IRU WKH $PHULFDQ YRWHU to  see  the  country  as  being  stronger  politically  and  economically  by  staying  out  of  international  hotspots  (and  in  the  face  of  humanitarian  crises  that  can’t  always  happen),  but  Zakaria  suggests  it  is  at  the  very  least  a  lesson  worth  considering.

Letters to the Editor Smith  has  shown  leadership  needed  to  be  governor I’ve  been  a  friend  and  legislative  colleague  of  Shap  Smith  for  over  13  years  and  based  on  that  experience,  wholeheartedly  support  him  for  governor  of  Vermont  I’d  like  you  to  know  why. I  know  Shap  to  be  an  honest,  direct,  and  capable  leader.  His  knowledge  of  issues  that  face  Ver- monters  is  deep  and  based  on  close  ties  to  his  extended  community.  His  daily  engagement  with  individuals,  DGYRFDWHV QRQSURÂżW RUJDQL]DWLRQV medical  professionals  and  educa- tors  informs  his  understanding  of  our  issues  in  a  way  that  only  “on  the Â
groundâ€?  experience  can. With  this  deep  understanding  and  engagement,  he  has  been  able  to  in- spire  action  in  his  colleagues.  While  all  of  us  in  the  Legislature  should  be  looking  at  the  best  interests  of  Vermonters,  we  often  don’t  agree  on  what  that  is.  It  takes  extraordinary  skill,  diplomacy  and  energy  to  move  a  disparate  group  of  individuals  with  different  agendas  in  a  direction  that  results  in  positive  action.  Shap  has  done  that. As  chair  of  the  Senate  Health  and  Welfare  Committee,  I  have  been  es- pecially  aware  of  his  work  on  issues Â
that  are  important  to  me.  I  worked  with  Shap  to  provide  patients  with  control  over  their  end-Âof-Âlife  care,  empower  childcare  and  home  health  workers  to  bargain  collectively,  and  expand  access  to  pre-Âkindergarten  for  Vermont’s  children.  Most  impor- tantly,  we’ve  worked  to  get  Vermont  on  a  path  to  ensure  that  every  Ver- monter  has  access  to  timely  and  ap- propriate  healthcare.  Shap  was  there,  every  step  of  the  way,  pushing  a  successful  agenda  rooted  in  progres- sive  values.  Like  us,  he  cares  deeply  about  the  future  of  Vermont.

Letters to the Editor Polar  bear  sighting  in  New  Jersey  convinces  skeptic For  about  17  years  I  resided  in  Middlebury  but  now  live  in  Whiting,  N.J.,  which  is  in  the  central  part  of  the  state,  in  Ocean  County,  near  the  Atlantic  coast. Our  recent  ferocious  storms  compel  me  to  say  that  while  I  hate  to  DGPLW LW $O *RUH ZDV ULJKW :H GHÂż- nitely  are  undergoing  global  warm- ing  and  our  storms  are  without  doubt  ¿HUFH LQ LQWHQVLW\ DQG YHU\ GDPDJLQJ to  our  environment.  Icebergs  are  melting,  forcing  adverse  tidal  condi- tions,  which  concern  us  all. Last  night  in  the  height  of  a  nor’easter  storm  which  was  wedged  in  the  Atlantic  Ocean  between  our Â
coast  and  a  hurricane,  I  was  awak- ened  by  the  sound  of  a  commotion  in  my  kitchen,  and  upon  investigat- ing  found  a  polar  bear  and  her  cub  ransacking  my  refrigerator-Âfreezer  in  search  of  ice  cubes.  I  found  a  gallon  ]LS ORFN EDJ DQG ÂżOOHG LW ZLWK LFH cubes  and  handed  it  to  her,  for  which  she  expressed  gratitude.  I  gave  the  cub  a  frozen  Milky  Way  candy  bar,  which  he  took  from  me,  muttering  something  about  a  “preference  for  M&Ms,â€?  at  which  time  his  mother  gave  him  a  clout  on  the  back  of  the  head.  In  consideration  of  my  gener- osity,  she  agreed  not  to  return  to  my  home.  They  then  ambled  off  into  the Â
darkness  and  the  storm. I  pass  this  information  on  to  you  because  this  situation  is  more  apt  to  occur  in  the  northern  climate  of  Ver- mont  than  it  is  here  in  New  Jersey.  It  might  be  well  for  residents  to  keep  a  stock  of  zip-Âlock  bags  and  some  M&Ms  on  hand,  just  in  case. As  an  aside,  let  me  say  I  miss  being  among  my  friends  in  Middle- bury,  but  maintain  contact  by  continuing  my  subscription  to  your  newspaper. I  submit  this  letter  most  sincerely  and  “with  tongue  in  cheek.â€?  Tom  Lewis Whiting,  N.J.

Even  though  I  am  not  often  in  a  hurry,  getting  stuck  behind  a  car  doing  30-Â35  in  a  50  mph  zone  irks  me.  Trapped  behind  a  car  taking  its  sweet  time,  along  with  a  dozen  other  frustrated  travelers,  is  danger- ous.  If  you  don’t  feel  safe  driving  your  car  at  the  suggested  speed  you Â
might  rethink  your  driving  status.  Inevitably  the  culprits  are  elderly.  I  am  heading  in  that  direction  myself  but  who  wants  to  give  up  their  driver’s  license,  especially  in  a  rural  state  where  public  transportation  is  scarce. A  few  years  ago,  my  uncle  drove  himself  to  an  eye  appointment.  Af- ter  the  exam,  the  doctor  asked  how  KH JRW WR WKH RIÂżFH :KHQ P\ XQFOH admitted  he’d  driven  himself,  the  GRFWRU DVNHG IRU DQG FRQÂżVFDWHG his  license.  “You  can’t  drive,  you’re  almost  blind,â€?  he  said.  “Yes,  but  I Â

The  conventional  agricultural  paradigm,  introduced  after  World  War  II,  replaced  ages-Âold,  costly  farm  protocols  for  weed  control,  soil  fertility  and  labor,  with  cheap  toxic  chemicals.  The  new  proto- FRO DFKLHYHV LWV ÂłHIÂżFLHQFLHV´ E\ externalizing  those  toxins  into  the  environment,  not  by  accident,  but  by  design.

were  instructed  to  increase  the  ap- plication  of  NPK  fertilizer,  which  is  the  vector  for  the  toxins  that  cause  water  pollution  in  the  lake. Phosphorus,  an  essential  element  for  plant  growth,  can  be  purchased  in  soluble  form,  which  leaches  quickly  and  therefore  pollutes  the  lake,  or  in  rock  form,  which  leaches  slowly  and  does  not.  Conventional  farmers  virtually  all  use  the  soluble  form. In  “No-ÂTill:  Does  It  Improve  Water  Quality?â€?  (Nathan  O.  Nelson,  Kansas  State  University),  the  author  concludes  that  no-Âtill  decreases  soil  erosion  but  increases  dissolved  P  loss.  The  suggestion  in  the  article  that  farmers  who  use  no-Âtill  are  helping  to  address  water  pollution  is  false  and  very  unhelpful.

At  Middlebury,  Ginnie  was  recruited  by  the  State  Department  to  join  the  Signal  Security  Agency  of  the  U.S.  Army  Signal  Corps.  After  graduation,  she  proudly  worked  at  the  Arlington  Hall  facility  in  Washington,  D.C.,  using  her  linguistic  skills  to  decode  enemy  messages  for  the  duration  of  the  war.

residents  who  consider  Vermont  home  and  want  to  share  it  with  their  guests,  and  hold  it  as  a  central  part  of  their  relationship  to  each  other.  In  this  feature  supplement,  we  found  eight  couples  who  were  married  in  Addison  Coun- ty  in  2015.  Some  live  in  the  area,  others  are Â
former  residents  who  came  back  as  a  trib- ute  to  this  place  that  they  hold  tight  in  their  hearts  even  when  far  away. We  asked  these  couples  to  respond  to  a  variety  of  questions  about  why  they  chose  to  get  married  in  Addison  County  and  what  makes  it  special  to  them.
Brit  and  Jamie Lindsay  and  Jonathan Lindsay  Jordan  and  Jonathan  Willson  both  grew  up  in  Mid- dlebury  and  knew  of  each  other  starting  in  elementary  school,  but  they  had  hardly  spoken  until  late  in  high  school.  “When  we  were  17,  I  told  a  mutual  friend  that  I  thought  Jon  was  cute,â€?  Lindsay  said.  “A  few  days  later  she  invited  us  both  over  to  her  house.  We  all  ate  Annie’s  macaroni  and  cheese  on  her  front  lawn  and  I  couldn’t  stop  myself  from  laughing  at  ev- erything  he  said.  I  think  we  were  dating  within  48  hours.â€?  The  couple  dated  for  several  years  following,  but  still  the  en- gagement  came  as  a  surprise  to  Lindsay.  “We  knew  we  would  end  up  together,  but  I  thought  we  would  get  engaged  in  another  year  or  two,â€?  she  said.  “One  day  Jon  ZHQW LQWR D MHZHOU\ VWRUH RQ KLV OXQFK EUHDN RXW RI FXULRVLW\ DQG KDSSHQHG WR Âż QG D ULQJ KH NQHZ , ZRXOG ORYH +H WDONHG WR RXU parents  that  weekend,  planning  to  propose  a  few  weeks  later  on  vacation;Íž  but  when  he  got  home,  he  couldn’t  keep  the  secret  and  immediately  proposed  in  our  backyard.â€?

That special moment
Brit and Jamie
’
.
Anneka and Daniel “Our first look at each other before the ceremony was such a high. We had both been running around all day, and so taking the time to just be together was so grounding and emotional. It really helped us connect to why we were there, and relieved some of our wedding jitters. Our photographer captured some of our favorite pictures during that time.” –Anneka
Christina and Dan “Every moment of the wedding was incredible. Everyone helped with everything and it was the most beautiful day. We loved dancing all night. We loved sitting around the campfire. We loved hearing friends speak. We loved being surrounded by so much love.” –Christina
Lindsay and Jonathan “When I reached Jon after walking down the aisle, he turned to me and whispered, ‘This is way more fun than I thought it would be!’ We both felt like all our pre-wedding nerves had suddenly lifted and we were so happy to be standing next to each other. All the other planning details didn’t matter anymore.” –Lindsay
Abby and Aaron Amanda and Brandon “Our wedding day turned out to be the wedding of our dreams. The rain held out and we had an outside ceremony with the reception at the Old Lantern. Peonies and baby’s breath, rustic surroundings along with all of our dear friends and family. Truly a day to remember.” –Amanda
“Our ceremony was the most special to us. We both wanted something personal and unique. My grandfather officiated and we had decided not to share our vows until that day. Aaron is quick-witted so I shouldn’t have been shocked when he joked and incorporated funny memories that had everyone laughing. We both mentioned the same things in our vows, which to me showed how much we know and love each other… his love for grilled cheese and guns followed by my boot obsession seemed to be a trend even in our toasts.” –Abby
“Getting married in a field, among the grapevines at Lincoln Peak Vineyard, was an intimate setting with the people we loved standing around us. Our pastor, Mary Kay Schueneman, was friendly and personable, and had people laughing and crying during our ceremony. We will always remember the sincerity of our vows and commitment to each other, and how amazing it felt to be surrounded by so many wonderful, loving people who had traveled such great lengths to celebrate with us.” –Brit
Abby and Mitchell “The morning of our wedding we walked with our families to the top of Snake Mountain. Arriving to the summit and looking out over the Champlain Valley was a moment we’ll never forget. It’s the most beautiful view in the world. We all spent time talking together and laughing as a new family group. Right as we were standing up to head down the mountain, a small Cessna plane buzzed right over our heads. It was so close we all waved and could see the pilot waving back. It wasn’t anyone we knew, but it was a great rush of excitement and everyone loved it.” –Abby

Why we chose a Vermont wedding
Abby and Mitchell Christina and Dan Christina Winkler and Dan Dunning met while students at Middlebury College in the mid-2000s, but did not start dating until a few years after graduating when they were both living in Portland, Ore. 7KH FRXSOH KDG EHHQ WRJHWKHU ¿ YH \HDUV DQG JRW HQJDJHG while vacationing in Joshua Tree National Park in California in March of 2014. Having grown up in Middlebury and having attended college here, Winkler could not imagine a better place to tie the knot;; luckily, Dunning was happy to agree. Their wedding was held at Common Ground Center in Starksboro. “We rented the campground for the whole weekend, with guests staying on site, so we got to spend three days surround- ed by the most amazing people,” Winkler said. “It was com- pletely beautiful and wonderful. It was our goal to be able to really connect with everyone who came to celebrate, so being able to have the camp for the weekend and have people stay on site was super appealing. We also were able dance all night!”
Abby Lovshin-Smith and Mitchell Watson met through friends while both were living in Atlanta, Ga., almost seven years ago. “We both went to a happy hour, got on the topic of music and upcoming concerts, and football, and we’ve been together ever since,” Abby recalled. The engagement was a total surprise to Abby. It was her birthday in November of 2014, and Mitchell came downstairs and sat on the couch next to her. “He said to me, ‘Do you want your birthday present now?’ and I said ‘Oh… you got me something?’ He then started saying he couldn’t decide if he should get me a trip, or get me something for my new car, then he said, ‘Instead I decided to get you a ring because I was wondering if you’d marry me?’” Abby grew up in Middlebury and has a deep connection to the area, as well as family still here. The couple wanted their wedding to be an amazing Vermont experience. “We invited only immediate family to attend, keeping it small to allow us to plan some fun activities,” Abby said. “We got married in my parents’ back yard, outside of the house I grew up in. It was simple and pretty.”

Anneka and Daniel Anneka Werner-Gavrin and Daniel Klein live in Brooklyn, N.Y., but Anneka grew up in Addison County and the couple enjoys weekend escapes to the quiet peacefulness of Vermont as often as possible. They met through a mutual friend who had an inkling that they would get along. She was right. While the proposal itself was a surprise, the couple had de- cided earlier that year that a wedding was in their near future and had picked out a ring together. “Dan proposed during a camping trip in Maryland, on a beautiful spring hike,” Anneka recalled. “We knew pretty much right away that we wanted a full weekend wedding in Vermont,” Anneka said. “We loved Common Ground Center because we were able to host all our guests’ onsite in cabins, and offered a variety of great spaces for our guests to enjoy a beautiful, sun-drenched weekend.”

Pet Pages Halloween can be spooky for pets By  M.  KATHLEEN  SHAW,  DVM Many  people  like  to  have  fun  during  the  Halloween  festivities,  but  our  pets  can  truly  be  frightened  by  all  of  the  noises  and  costumes.  Halloween  is  a  holiday  with  many  dangers  for  our  dogs  and  cats. Dressing  up  is  fun  for  humans,  but  may  not  be  fun  for  our  pets.  If  your  pet  tolerates  a  costume,  keep  in  mind  your  pet  must  be Â
comfortable  at  all  times.  Avoid  any  costumes  that  use  rubber  bands  or  anything  that  might  constrict  circu- lation  or  breathing.  Likewise,  avoid  costumes  with  toxic  paints  or  dyes,  or  that  are  edible. Costumes  on  people  can  be  equally  scary  to  pets.  Masks,  large  hats  and  other  costume  accessories  can  confuse  pets  and  may  even  trigger  territorial  instincts.  It  is  not  unusual  for  pets  to  act  protective  and  fearful  of  people  in  costumes,  even  if  they  (Continued  on  next  page)

Constant  visitors  to  the  door  along  with  spooky  sights  and  sounds  may  cause  pets  to  escape  and  become  injured  in  a  variety  of  ways.  Consider  letting  your  dog  spend  Halloween Â
inside  with  special  treats,  safe  and  secure.  Even  in  a  fenced  yard,  Halloween  is  not  a  good  night  for  a  dog  to  be  outside.  This  is  doubly  true  for  cats:  They  may  try  to  bolt  out  the  door,  and  even  if  they  are  allowed  outside,  they  are  more  at  risk  for  being  hit  by  cars  due  to  the  high  WUDIÂż F IURP WULFN RU WUHDWHUV %ODFN cats,  especially,  are  at  a  higher  risk  from  human  cruelty  on  Halloween. Â
Consider  keeping  your  cats  in  an  interior  room  where  they  are  unable  to  bolt  out  the  door. Some  Halloween  decorations  can  be  unsafe  for  your  pets.  Fake  cobwebs  or  anything  resembling  string  can  be  tempting  to  cats,  lead- ing  to  an  intestinal  obstruction.  Candles,  even  inside  pumpkins,  can  be  easily  knocked  over,  burning  your  pet  or  even  lighting  them  (it  has  happened  before)  or  your  house  on  ¿ UH Keep  pets  away  from  all  Halloween  candy.  Most  people  know  that  chocolate  can  be  toxic  to  pets,  even  in  small  amounts.  However,  lollipop  sticks  and  foil  wrappers  can  cause  blockages  in  the  intestinal  tract.  Candy  sweetened  with  xylitol  can  cause  a  life-Âthreatening  drop  in  blood  sugar  if  ingested  by  a  pet.  Some  pets  can  get  an  upset  stomach  just  from  eating  a  piece  of  candy,  since  it  isn’t  part  of  their  regular  diet. These  simple  responsible  precau- tions  will  help  humans  and  pets  alike  have  a  safe  holiday.  For  more  infor- mation  on  how  to  make  Halloween  less  stressful  to  your  pet,  contact  your  veterinarian.

By  ANDY  KIRKALDY VERGENNES  —  The  Middle- bury  Union  High  School  girls’  soc- cer  team  needed  two  late  goals  from  a  senior  playing  a  new  position  to  overcome  a  spirited  effort  by  host  Vergennes  on  Saturday,  2-Â1.  7KH &RPPRGRUHV WRRN D ÂżUVW KDOI lead  on  a  goal  by  8th-Âgrade  JV  call- up  Emily  Rooney  and  had  several  chances  to  build  on  that  lead,  but  the  Tigers’  second-Âhalf  edge  in  pos- session  ultimately  led  to  two  Kelsey  Smith  strikes  and  the  victory.  The  Tigers  improved  to  8-Â5-Â1,  HQRXJK XQRIÂżFLDOO\ WR HDUQ WKH 1R 7  seed  in  Division  I.  They  will  ap- parently  host  a  Lake  Division  rival,  1R 5LFH LQ WKH ÂżUVW URXQG The  Tigers  and  Green  Knights  split  two  one-Âgoal  games  this  fall.

is  a  board  member  of  John  Graham  Housing  and  Services.   His  responsibilities  include  planning  the  December  5th  Sleep-Âout  to  End  Homelessness,  helping  families  move  to  new  homes,  and  coordinating  services  for  chronically  home- less  individuals,  but  he  happily  helps  wherever  he  is  needed  .  Dan  also  volunteers  with  Middlebury  College  Alternative  Break  Trips,  a  group  that  sends  students  around  the  world  to  perform  unique  service  opportunities  during  school  breaks.  Last  year  he  went  on  a  trip  to  San  Juan,  Puerto  Rico  where  he  focused  on  providing  sexual  education  to  women  who  were  recently  incarcerated  and  aided  in  HIV  prevention  efforts  for  transgender  sex  workers.  This  coming  February,  Dan  will  be  co-Âleading  a  trip  to  Washington  D.C.,  where  students  will  explore  aspects  of  privilege  and  poverty  and  volunteer  at  organizations  in  the  area  that  combat  food  insecurity.  Dan  enjoys  volunteering  because  it  makes  him  feel  connected  to  the  greater  community  in  Addison  County  and  it  gives  him  a  sense  of  place  beyond  his  academic  coursework.   Dan,  we  appreciate  all  that  you  do!  Thank  you!

It’s  against  the  law  to  discriminate  when  advertising  housing Particularly  on  sites  like  Craigslist. And  it’s  easier  to  break  the  law  than  you  might  think.  You  can’t  say  “no  childrenâ€?  or  “adults  only.â€?  There  is  lots  you  can’t  say.  The  federal  government  is  watching  for  such  discrimination. Let  us  help  you  sift  through  the  complexities  of  the  Fair  Housing  Law.  Stay  legal.  Stay  on  the  right  side  of  the  nation’s  Fair  Housing  Law.  Call  the  Addison  Independent  at  (802)  388-Â4944.
