Champlain bridge HISTORIC MARKET closes indefinitely
The Lake Champlain Bridge way closed indefinitely Oct. 16. Photo by J. Kirk Edward
CROWN POINT/ADDISON — New York and Vermont engineers have closed the Lake Champlain Bridge connecting Addison, Vt., and Crown Point, N.Y. The bridge is also known as the Crown Point Bridge. Early unconfirmed reports indicated that a serious metal fracture was observed on the bridge and that it represents a serious hazard to vehicles crossing the span. Officials did not comment on the fracture story. Ted Anhalt of Crown Point, a daily commuter to Middlebury who uses the bridge, was having lunch in the Bridge Restaurant on Oct. 16 when he said an unidentified man, possibly a highway worker, walked into the dining area. “He told us ‘You folks have just 8 minutes to get across the bridge before it closes—if that’s where you’re going,’ he said. Well, I was in shock. I didn’t expect closing the bridge would happen so quickly. A lot of folks like me are going to be terribly inconvenienced by this fiasco. They had only 80 years to fix this problem,” Anhalt said. “I also heard it may take up to three or four weeks before it reopens. I don’t know what I am going to do now.” The bridge closed Friday, Oct. 16, at 1:30 p.m. It will remain closed indefinitely, according to officials.
Ayer, Lyons speak out on health-care reform BURLINGTON — Vermont Democratic Party Chairwoman Judy Bevans, along with Vermont State Senators Virginia “Ginny” Lyons and Claire Ayer, held a news conference last week at the University of Vermont Women’s Center to discuss the proposed health insurance reforms currently being debated by Congress and the opportunities presented by President Obama’s controversial health insurance reforms. "Vermont is among the national leaders in how it administers health care. Our record of innovation should be used as a guide for Congress in this debate to overhaul the nation's health care system,” said Bevans. The trio also discussed the need for greater consideration of women’s health issues and how these concerns need to be part of the national conversation. State Sen. Claire Ayer, R.N. (D-Addi-
son) has worked for a number of years in a Middlebury Obstetrics and Gynecology office. She related the story of a young woman who also worked in the office who had received news of an abnormal medical test result. The woman could not afford the necessary treatment and, even though her co-workers offered to help her cover the cost, she couldn’t bear the idea of owing money and subsequently never sought treatment. State Sen. Ginny Lyons (D-Chittenden), who is a member of the Senate Health and Welfare Committee, said, "Vermont law bans gender discrimination by health insurers. Vermont law gives equal access to health insurance for people with prior health conditions like arthritis or heart disease. Vermont law fosters prevention programs. Now is time to close these gaps at the national level.”
New Haven’s historic Village Green Market on Town Hill Road reflects the time of the season with decorative, locally grown pumpkins and late blooming flowers. Tory and Andre Palmer, owners of the market since 2001, said the location has been a general store for 201 years. It may be the oldest operating country store, at the same location, in Vermont.

Man attempts to elude trooper SALISBURY — On Oct. 12 at 10:20 a.m., Jason L Kirby, age 29, of Burlington was observed driving a Vermont registered 2008 Hyundai southbound on Route 7 in Salisbury, at 77 mph in a 50 mph zone. Kirby attempted to elude by making a sharp left turn onto Plains Road and continuing at a very high rate of speed east on Plains Road, onto Beaver Pond Road, and then north onto Upper Plains Road. He then entered Middlebury where he made a sharp right turn onto Route 125 and continued east at a high rate of speed into the town of Ripton. Kirby then pulled into the Ripton General Store where he was taken into custody without incident. The accused is also out on current conditions on charges in Chittenden County. The accused was charged with the above offense and will be facing a court date next month in Addison County.

Vermont folksinger and songwriter Rachel Bissex along Lake Champlain. The performer died of breast cancer in 2005.
White Light Fund A $1,000 scholarship is being offered to Vermont singers and songwriters. The Rachel Bissex White Light Fund is soliciting applications for this opportunity intended for artists who are striving to develop careers as performers and recording artists. In February 2005, Vermont folksinger/songwriter Rachel Bissex died of breast cancer. She is remembered for her talents, not the least of which was a dedication to mentoring and supporting up-and-coming talent. The White Light Fund, a title inspired by her final recording, honors Rachel’s work in this regard. The fund, created by Karl Bissex, Mary Trerice and Lynne Goodson, is supported through the efforts of Occasional Concerts—
a series of performances featuring national touring singer/songwriters. A recent guitar raffle, featuring an instrument signed by Joan Baez, and sponsored by Vermont Folk Instruments also contributed to the fund. “Our hope is that this $1,000 scholarship will make a difference in the career of a Vermont singer-songwriter,” said Lynne Goodson. Singer Mary Trerice said, “In the past, the funds have been designated for a specific use. In keeping with the times we are offering some grassroots-stimulus-funds.” Bissex was married to Vermont playwright Stephen Goldberg. To receive a White Light Fund scholarship application, email lcg@sunboundtalent.com or call 244-5895. The deadline for submittal is Nov. 18. Applicants must be Vermont residents and unsigned singer/songwriters with a vision for an artistic career. Join us for Thanksgiving Serving noon - 4pm Reservations Only!

Couponing's Best-Kept Secrets: Learn When Less is More
T
his week's Super-Couponing secret may surprise you because it goes against just about everything shoppers believe about saving money and shopping. Are you ready for a head-scratcher? Secret #5: Smaller-Size Items are Often a Better Value Yes, you read that right. Buying the smaller size of a product, with coupons, is often a better deal than buying a larger size of the same item. When I teach my coupon classes, this statement is almost always met with disbelief. I completely understand why, because it runs contrary to just about everything shoppers believe. To get the lowest price, we are very conditioned to buy the largest size of something - the "family size" cereals, the "value-pack" of refills or just the largest package we can find. It does seem that you'll need to buy that item less often if you buy a larger size - but you're also likely to spend much more than you need to. When we have a fairly high-value coupon, applying it to the relatively lower price of a smaller-sized item will often result in a significantly lower per-ounce cost. I know that this surprises many people. It surprised me, too, as I became a more experienced shopper. Over time, I noticed that many of the items I was able to bring home for free or for pennies were usually in smaller-sized packages than their so-called "value" or larger counterparts. Adding to the confusion, the larger packages often tout in big, bold letters that they are the better buy! A few examples will help you understand why this works. A certain brand of aluminum foil is on sale at my local store. The 70-square-foot box is $3.79 and the 20square-foot box is 99 cents. With a coupon that states "$1 off any aluminum foil," I have my choice as to which size box I'd like, the larger or the smaller. While my dollar coupon will, indeed, give me a discount on the larger box, the smaller box will be free. And I prefer free any day. The rule of thumb that it's better to buy the smaller size

he freshman college basketball player ’s first practice didn’t go well, he thought, as far as his performance was concerned anyway. After practice the young player addressed his new coach, telling him he’d jump much higher and dunk the ball with more ease and regularity then he had in the first practice. He told his coach he wasn’t sure why his ability to jump “Out of the gym,” and dunk the ball hard had disappeared in his first ever college practice. The freshman’s coach told the boy that being a good player at the college level doesn’t require one to jump extremely high or dunk fantastically well. The coach told the boy “The higher the level you play, the more a constant presence of the fundamentals is needed to succeed.” The coach listed passing, short shots, defense and conditioning, as being much more important than extremely high jumping and hard dunking. A greenhorn local short track stock car racer chatted with a wiry, weathered, worn, weary, venerable winning veteran race driver, about the do’s and don’ts of circling a quarter-mile racetrack. The green-horn soaked in the veteran racer ’s advise the same way a Nun wanna-be attempts to soak in her Mother Superior ’s benevolent essence, on the first day of Nun school. The two racers parted as the race line-up came through the loud speaker, and the greenhorn could not quite believe the veteran racer ’s parting comment. “Sometimes if you drive slower, you’ll go faster,” the cagey old driver said. A house-call making vet appreciated the cat owner ’s offer to hold his cat while the vet gave the cat her shots, clipped her nails, and checked her pittering little heart, and sharp tiny teeth. Toward the end of the check-up, the cat became restless and started to squirm. The owner held tight and the vet finished his work. The entire procedure took less then five minutes. The owner asked the vet how he’s able to work on cats that have a less than calm demeanor. The vet said when he knows he’s going to check on a particularly wily feline, he’ll bring an assistant who is experienced in cat holding. But cats are strong, quick, and unpredictable, and the owner wondered if the vet and his assistant ever got scratched. The vet told the owner, “It may be hard to believe, but we rarely get scratched. The more gently you hold a cat, the more calm it’s apt to be.” There’s an old joke, I don’t know it well, and I’ll have to edit it for the column, but it’s a good one -- An old bull and young bull are grazing in a field, looking off and away to a pasture full of heifers. The young bull says, “Hey, I’m going to run down there and kiss one of them heifers.” The old bull looks at the young bull and says, “Why don’t you walk down and kiss them all?” My cat Scarlet nestled into a back cushion of my sofa and watched and listened to myself and my group of musicians rehearse for fully two hours. Every so often when we hit a clinker or ride the tempo and volume of a particular song particularly high, Scarlet’s ears would perk back and her eyes would widen. She’d give a paw a lick or two, then settle back deep down into the cushion as the rehearsal continued. The following afternoon, the gal who’ll be dancing in my upcoming shows and I were rehearsing in the same space as the former night’s music rehearsal. Scarlet paid little attention to the dancer ’s beautiful moves. Instead she spent most of the dance rehearsal off to the side, facing away from the dancer, cleaning. I have to assume Scarlet isn’t much into dance. Scarlet is into herself. Whether nestled and listening, or off to the side and cleaning, she seems relaxed and content. She listens with all her might, and she ignores and cleans with all her might, and she does both without the least bit of a sign of angst, or stress. Reason number one why cats have nine lives. The coach, the veteran driver, the veterinarian, the old bull, and Scarlet, have got it figured out. Hold the cat gently.

especially holds true when we stack a store's coupon and manufacturer's coupon. With the two coupons, we receive an even larger discount on an item. For example, baby wipes are on sale By Jill Cataldo at my store this week. The plastic tub contains 77 wipes and it's on sale for $2.99. The "value-pack" of baby wipe refills contains 231 wipes and it's on sale for $5.99. My store offers a $1.50 store coupon good on any size of the wipes. I also have a $1 manufacturer coupon for the wipes. Stacking these coupons gives me $2.50 in savings on either size item. With the coupons, the plastic tub with 77 wipes will cost just 49 cents. The "value-pack" refill will cost me $3.49 using the same coupons. The "value-pack" contains three 77-count wipe packages; that works out to about $1.16 for each 77-wipe package. I'd spend more than twice as much on baby wipes if I purchased the larger, so-called "money-saving" size. An even easier example involves coupons for items that come in a trial or travel size. A $1 coupon good for any size deodorant will certainly give you a discount on a fullsize deodorant. But a 99-cent travel size will be free using the coupon. Again, any time a coupon states that it will work on any size of a product, remember that the trial and travel sizes are included. Free always makes better financial "cents" than spending more than we have to!

Oct. 27 launch will be first test of shuttle replacement
T
he Oct. 19 rollout of NASA’s new Ares 1-X test rocket at Cape Canaveral, Florida, was the first small step in a big leap to replace the aging space-shuttle fleet. And on Tuesday, Oct. 27, if all goes well, the Ares 1-X will be launched to test the performance of the solid-propellant rocket stack carrying its mockup of the Apolloshaped Orion spacecraft and escape tower system. This writer was invited to be one of NASA’s press guests at the Ares 1-X rollout at Cape Canaveral. The pencil-thin rocket— nearly as tall as the old Saturn-V moon rocket—made a slow four-mile-long, motorizedcrawler trip, from the Vehicle Assembly Building to the seaside launch complex 39B, in seven hours. News personnel and VIPs from around the world were scheduled to be in attendance to witness the historic rollout. Here’s why the 1-X rocket is so important to the future of America’s human space program— The Ares rocket is the keystone of NASA’s new Constellation program; it will lift the piloted version of the Orion spacecraft, the vehicle that will transport astronauts to the space station and—someday—on to the Moon and Mars. Right now, America’s Moon plans are on indefinite hold thanks to the current administration’s lack of a high-frontier vision coupled with its growing deficit crisis. Despite this writer ’s disappointment in seeing America’s lunar plans delayed, at least the infrastructure for sustained human interplanetary exploration is finally being put in place—and that’s a very positive step forward in leaving the confines of low Earth orbit. But let’s get back to this month’s big activities at Cape Canaveral— The Ares 1-X rocket stands more than 300 feet tall; it is a fragile looking thing but is, in fact, a powerful two-stage rocket. Ares is a modified five-segment, solid-rocket booster derived from the space shuttle. Ares 1-X also has a cryogenic (frigid liquefied fuel) upper stage that is driven by a J-2X engine derived from the old Saturn rocket’s upper stages. This is an ideal example of recycling proven technology. It’s an investment of tax dollars in aerospace technology that will have real payoffs.
Oct. 27’s launch target altitude won’t be low Earth orbit. Instead, the rocket will peak at 130,000 feet, on the edge of space, zooming at 3,300 MPH,m while the first stage will zoom on to its top altitude of 150,000 feet. From peak altitude, the first-stage will fall back to Earth buoyed by parachutes; a NASA ship located 144 miles east of Cape Canaveral will retrieve it. This is the same vessel that has been used to retrieve the shuttle’s burned out solid-rocket boosters to be reused. Here’s what to watch out for: Separation of the Ares 1-X’s first-stage on Oct. 27 will be the key event that will decide the ultimate success of this $350 million test flight. (The mockup upper stage and Orion spacecraft are less important; they will fall back into the ocean and not be retrieved.) You can watch the exciting live launch of Ares 1-X at 8 a.m., Oct. 27, on NASA-TV. NASA-TV is available by most cable and satellite television providers or you can watch it for free online at www.nasa.gov/multimedia/nasatv/index.ht ml. What’s in the Sky: The planets Mercury, Venus and Saturn are staggered along the imaginary line of the ecliptic Oct. 24. Look in the east after 7 p.m. fro this trio. The line of the ecliptic slices through the constellation Virgo. Lou Varricchio, M.Sc., is a former NASA science writer. He is a member of the NASA-JPL Solar System Ambassador program in Vermont.

Fenster appointed Addison County State’s Attorney St. Mary’s receives NEASC accreditation MIDDLEBURY — St. Mary’s School of Middlebury has recently received accreditation from the New England Association of Schools and Colleges (NEASC). This process required two-years of intensive preparation, culminating with the accreditation team visiting last March. In preparation for NEASC’s visit, the school community conducted intensive self-reflection exercises and then took necessary steps for improvement. The school was commended in the report for this as well as for the following: their exceptional, professional, and highly motivated faculty, the faculty and administration’s commitment to a strong academic program, and the ability to provide a well-rounded program with limited resources. St. Mary’s will complete both a two-year and a five-year interim evaluation report, which will verify that the school is working on their multi-year plan based upon their mission and that they are continuing to improve upon building maintenance. A NEASC team will revisit St. Mary’s in 2019.
Hinesburg student is math wiz HINESBURG—Brittany Baker, daughter of Russell and Robin Baker of Hinesburg, is no ordinary student. Baker is one of the top math students at Vermont’s Saint Michael’s College. Baker was just inducted into Pi Mu Epsilon, the National Mathematics Honor Society, at Saint Michael's College. A junior mathematics major, Baker was one of 12 students selected for this top honor for 2009. She graduated from Mount Abraham Union High School, before coming to Saint Michael's, a distinctive Catholic liberal arts college, located in the Burlington Vermont, arguably the nation's best college town. Founded in 1914 at Syracuse University, Pi Mu Epsilon is dedicated to promoting scholarly activity in mathematics at academic institutions, and to recognizing students who successfully pursue mathematical understanding. Students are selected on the basis of their overall academic excellence and accomplishments in mathematics. Saint Michael's mathematics Professor Joanna Ellis-Monaghan congratulated Baker and talked about how graph theory is used to model DNA self-assembly, a process that results in nano-scale, cubes, octahedrons, and even buckyballs.
Consulting firm to help struggling businesses Worth Mountain Consulting opens MIDDLEBURY — A new professional business firm, Worth Mountain Consulting, was opened its doors last week with an emphasis on providing businesses and non-profit organizations fresh perspectives and access to capital at a time when all organizations are striving to recover from difficult economic times. “Our timing for creating Worth Mountain Consulting couldn’t be better as the new economic landscape demands new strategies and new thinking,” said P. Gregory O’Brien a co-founder with Steve Terry of the new enterprise to be based here in the heart of Vermont. O’Brien said Worth Mountain provides clients with an integrated team of professionals, each with more than 20 years of successful experience in the fields of corporate finance, management consulting, energy, communications and nonprofit governance and management. The firm, with offices at 68 Court St. in Middlebury, is composed of five professionals with experience in their respective fields.

Quinn who retired last month. “I am pleased to announce the appointment of David to this position in my home county,” said Douglas. “I believe his eleven years in the Bennington State’s Attorney’s office as well as his years in private practice give him the experience necessary to keep Addison County a safe place to live and raise a family.” “I want to thank Gov. Douglas for having the confidence in me to do this important job,” said Fenster. “I am committed to working as hard as I can with my partners in the law enforcement community to ensure that the people of Addison County are safe.” Fenster has been in private law practice in with the firm Barr, Sternberg, Moss, Lawrence, Silver, Saltonstall &
Fenster, P.C. in Bennington since July 2005. Before joining the firm he was deputy state’s attorney with the Bennington State’s Attorney’s office for more than 11 years. Fenster was educated at the University of Vermont where he received a B.A. in political science and sociology and a minor in psychology. He received his J.D. degree cum laude from Cardozo School of Law in New York, N.Y. Fenster has served the state and his community as a member of the board of managers for the Vermont Bar Association, the board of governors of the Vermont Association for Justice, past president of the Bennington Bar Association. He also serves as secretary of Norshaft Little League and is a member of the Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks. He is married to Katree Fenster and has two children, Riley age 11 and Ian age 9.

51 Main St.—Food, drinks, music, friends Downtown college spot is popular It has become a popular downtown Middlebury address in a very short time: 51 Main at the Bridge. This downtown hot spot was born from an idea that a group of Middlebury College students had for improving social life at the college. Students envisioned a sophisticated, international social space where people of all ages and all walks of life could come together for conversation, music and art, and with a feeling that was separate from the college. The name was created to not only speak to local geography— at the end of downtown Middlebury’s Romanesque bridge—but also to speak of the place as a bridge between town and college, a bridge for artists, both musical and visual, to present their talents to the public and a bridge for personal growth through shared experiences. 51 Main is open to all who want to experience the beautiful setting, good food with an international flair, and music and art that changes in style and presentation regularly. Live music is available nearly every evening, Thursday through Saturday. 51 Main’s mission is to attract different musical genres, never falling into a niche by type of music. Art exhibits include young artists as well as professional artists with exhibits changing monthly. The staff prides itself on the diversity of food, drink, music and art. 51 Main at the Bridge is informal yet sophisticated. It is open to all ages. Families are encouraged to drop by and share the fun. No reservations are required and there is never a cover charge. Special thanks to 51 Main at the Bridge

Numero-phobia in Ferrisburgh

ome things were different back in 1970, the year the Act 250 rules were legislated, and some not. For example, the retail milk price was then 66 cents per gallon, per Bureau of Labor Statistics data, which, adjusted for inflation, equates to about $3.50 today (so take that, all you contemporary milk-price-complainers) but, in contrast, the focus in land use regulation which used to be more mathematicallybased, with published measurable quantitative standards for development proposals to meet, isn’t so much any more. Consider, for example, the first three of the 10 Criteria of Act 250: #1, which measures air and water pollution, #2 which measures potable water supply sufficiency, and #3 which measures the proposal’s burden on existing water supply. Down the list is #8, the one which was written to control such non-quantifiable things as “undue adverse effect on esthetics” and “irreplaceable natural resources”. Those who have followed Act 250 in operation over the decades will recall that at first the quantifiable criteria were far more predominant, and only more recently have the subjective ones become more important. Those of us in the planning discipline who were enthusiastic back then about quantitative, measurable, standards as the transparent, predictable criteria basis for development approval by local zoning boards turned out to be in a distinct minority, which is reflected in the history of performance-standards bylaws drawing a lot of hostility and almost zero acceptance from planning and zoning boards across the country. Instead, the P&Z folks chose to go in just about the opposite direction, raising “conditional use” (with its option for invented-on-the-spot conditions) from an infrequently-applied approach to special-situation permitting to one that has grown markedly in scope in most city and town plans just about everywhere. It’s not surprising, therefore, that the Ferrisburgh P&Z folks have used their conditional approval powers to set some decidedly non-measurement-based requirements for the present Champlain Oil food and fuel proposal on Route 7. Two parts of the proposal have been rejected: one is diesel fuel pumps and the other is drive-through fast-food service. Both rejections are predicated on a stated board belief that such elements would “increase traffic in the area to an unsafe level”. No numbers are offered to support this belief, even though the applicable figures are readily available, or reasonably estimable. For example, the traffic-engineering fraternity has developed some guidelines for hourly traffic volumes on various highway configurations, as shown, fairly typically, in the New Jersey standards (on the State Transportation website under Road User Cost Computations) which state that a typical modern two-lane highway has a vehicle capacity of 1400 privatelyowned vehicles (POV’s) per hour in each lane, which works out to, when multiplied by 24 hours, a fairly substantial 67,200 over a full day. That number is described by the NJ AoT as the “normal” and “ideal” capacity of such a highway, by which measure VT’s two-lane Route 7 at about 15000/day would be, shall we say, under-utilized. For both lanes, 1400 times 2, then 2800 times 10 daylight hours yields a more old-fashioned once-standard number in the general 20-30K range. VT AoT data on Route 7 traffic in recent years have shown volumes in the 15-to-25K range at various points along its corridor, the higher counts in the urban areas like Rutland and the lower ones in the more-open areas like Ferrisburgh. I’d guess that the Ferrisburgh zoners could have obtained and used the relevant up-to-date Route 7 numbers as the quantitative basis for a traffic-congestion standard if they had wanted to. They didn’t. Instead, they applied the adjective “inconclusive” to the COCO consultants’ studies, without telling the public what numbers therein caused the “inconclusivity”. I have the column-inches for only one sample calculation, based in part on a little customer-time survey I ran, just for this purpose, at a fuel-and-food vendor site near here. It turns out that average on-site customer dwell-time is a shade over eight minutes, most at the pump and some at the coffee/snack counter. Because of typically larger fuel tanks, diesel fill-ups take somewhat longer than gas fill-ups for which I’ll use the 8minute figure. Hypothetically, there might be 8 pumps at a typical fuel-vendor set-up, each, under continuous use, capable of servicing almost 8 POV visits per hour, or about 64 for all. For the COCO proposal, that would be 64 POV’s per hour coming off a Route 7 with a maximum hourly traffic flow of say 1500 (15000 for a full day divided by 10 daylight hours only) for a traffic impact of
64 divided by 1500, or about 4 percent. The estimate is conservatively high for three reasons: 1. it allocates all Route 7 traffic to daylight; 2. it doesn’t recognize that it typically takes longer to fill up with diesel, so that traffic into and out of the fuel station would be reduced in accordance with the number of pumps dispensing diesel and not gas; and 3. it assumes all pumps would be in continuous customer use, something which hasn’t happened since the gas lines of 1973. (Parenthetically, so much for the non-quantified notion that one reason for forbidding diesel pumps while permitting gas pumps is concern over increased traffic.) Using the NJ AoT two-lane highway capacity figures, VT Route 7 in Ferrisburgh is currently functioning at less than a quarter of its theoretical maximum load. Whether an improbable but possible, worst-case, 4 % increase is too much, in COCO-enterprise traffic leaving and re-entering the highway, is best decided, not by avoiding the numbers and simply declaring that it is, but by referring to an already-adopted-andin-print set of impact standards limiting every new development applicant, to, say, 5%. Since Ferrisburgh never adopted performance-standard zoning with actual numbers for permissible impacts, it has no such published performance standards for both applicants and regulators to rely on, and must instead, use its own, case-by-case, subjective, no-numbers, judgment as each applicant, unsure of what might “pass”, comes before it. Maybe that result isn’t just numero-phobia in the normal sense of that aversion, but exactly what the P&Z folks wanted all along. Former Vermonter Martin Harris lives in Tennessee.
LETTER TO THE EDITOR Healthcare To the editor: This an open letter to Vermont’s congressman and senators: As the debates over healthcare reform or health insurance reform are drawing to a close, I want to contact you to make my position known. I fully support the idea of some reform to the way health insurance is organized in this country, but I do not believe that we should destroy the finest healthcare system in the world in the process. If you doubt that ours is the finest, just ask any of the foreign heads of state who have come to America for surgery or treatment. Now, I fully expect that just as I am responsible to read all of the fine print in any document that I sign, so too are you responsible to read every paragraph of every page of whatever bill you intend to sign. I trust that you will do no less. This does not mean that your staffers should not be reading the bill, just that you must read the bill. Next, the idea of the government mandating that citizens, and non-citizens as well, I believe (maybe we should just say, ”Residents of the United States”) will be required to purchase some type of health insurance is clearly not supported by the U.S. Constitution... The comparison to automobile insurance is weak, and invalid. First, mandatory auto insurance is required by certain states, not the federal government (possibly a states rights issue). Next, this is not required of all citizens or residents, only of those who choose to register and drive their automobiles on public roads and highways. Moreover, the requirement is for liability coverage only, not collision, and not comprehensive (other than collision)... This would be comparable to having your auto insurance cover oil changes and new tires, or your homeowner ’s policy paying for carpet and a new roof, which is quite obviously absurd and not the intent of insurance at all. But the most important point of this incomparable comparison, is that people can “opt out” of auto insurance by simply not owning and driving a motor vehicle. How exactly might we opt out of mandatory health insurance? David J. King Orwell

THE EAGLE - 7
BROWN’S TREE & CRANE SERVICE
Redstone filled with all that jazz
O
Serving Vermont and New York for Over 30 Years
ne of my favorite forms of music is jazz. I even know why -- it's the improvisatory nature of jazz that delights me both intellectually and musically. And one of my favorite groups to see in person way back then was the Chico Hamilton Quintet. Hamilton was a cellist, and he was unique in his time. The Julian Lage Group happens to contain a cellist. Thus it was that I was especially prepared to pay close attention to the performance, and I assure you, the energy that I used up in paying close attention to the incredible performance that these five young jazz musicians was more than recompensed by the rewards that I read by paying attention. The Redstone Recital Hall on the UVM campus on Saturday, October 17, was abuzz with tales of Lage said, the child wonder, who at last appeared on the stage of the Redstone campus when he was 14 years old. In the intervening seven years Lage has pursued the study of music, including studying Indian music at the Ali Akbar College of music, and is currently studying classical composition and Berklee College of Music in Boston. There was no available for the other four members of his Group, but based on what took place on stage, they all have formidable talents, especially Jorge Roeder, the bass player, and Tupac Mantilla, drums/percussion. Also on board were Ben Roseth, saxophone and Aristides Rivas, cello. To try to e for convey some of the flavor of the evening, I'll start with Lage, who is a formidable guitarist with incredible technique, and one of the deepest-seated connections to improvisatory music that I've heard in a very long time. It's not simply that he understands chord changes and harmonic structure so that he can play freely inside the structure that he and the other members of his Group builds so easily. It goes way beyond that to a perception of rhythm that is as freewheeling as one could wish for, to knowing (and in this case, showing freely) when two improvisatory musicians have hit upon the same idea of improvisation,, and expressing that recognition with the joy that may cause one or both of the musicians to jump off the floor, or to smile and acknowledgment, or to give voice to the pleasure of arriving at the same spot without planning to do so. Lage specializes in his ability to perceive these moments and to take joy from the serendipity of such collocation. It happened over and over again Saturday evening, and Lage is anything but shy when it comes to recognizing when such occurrences take place. In addition, Lage and his Group know how to layer long legato lines with herky-jerky staccato lines, to bring voices into the group at the apparently inappropriate or an apposite times that blossomed as they become the quintessential correct entrance for that instrument at that time in that piece of music. It is perhaps the layering of sound that comes from guitar + cello + bass + sax + percussion instruments played for the most part without mallets of any kind that makes the Julian Lage Group such a unique-sounding compilation of instruments. The repertoire was unknown to me, but that didn't matter, because the melodies were so well set forth in various combinations of rhythms, that it was easy to recognize what remained constant in the music. I would love to have allowed
Jane Ambrose or Natalie Neuert to have given the Group a Jazz standard melody and to listen to what they came up with as they moved their way through their version of a standard melody. They could be given the melody during the break to play as their last offering, or they could be given the melody just before the concert and once again to use within their concert structure. It would give a wonderful opportunity for us to see more closely how the minds of each one of the Group approaches their individual riffs. I do hope that they will be asked back soon -- I wish voice by Lage himself that another seven years does not intervene before they come back to Vermont. (Since the idea of giving a tune to visiting organist is not original to me, but was a device used by the American Guild of Organists when a guest organist came to give recitals in the Los Angeles area during the years while I was growing up.) It was a superb concert from first note to last, and the Group was even generous enough to encore their performance.
A time for giving thanks
bins full of squash and potatoes, seemingly unlimited in supply. Going further into the store we find freshly baked loaves of bread and pre-packaged pies. Most of us do not have to work with and pray over the harvest of the fields. While having a neighborhood grocery store does make life easier, I sometimes wonder if we are missing an essential element of gratitude by being so disconnected from the basic work of gathering in the harvest! Buying ‘our ’ groceries with ‘our ’ money, we sometimes feel a sense of entitlement to what we have. I do realize that we all can’t be farmers, but even those of us who have gardens can appreciate the effects that sun, rain, and heat can have on the quality of our crop. So much is out of our control! Everything is in God’s hands. As a verse from the Psalm 24 reminds us, “The earth is the Lord’s and all that is in it.” As this time of Thanksgiving approaches, let us remember to give thanks to God for all that we have received over the past year. Enjoy your turkey and your stuffing, and don’t eat too much pumpkin pie like I always do! Yet in the midst of all the feasting and fun, remember to give thanks. Gathering our blessings, and remembering the harvest that God has given us, let us affirm that all we have belongs to God (even if we buy it at Price Chopper). We are no different from the people of Israel wandering in the desert. Our food does not come in the form of quail and manna from the sky, but all we have comes from God.
I
don’t know about you, but I am ready for some turkey. My mouth is watering for stuffing and squash, cranberry sauce and pumpkin pie. I love this time of year. The air turns cooler, the leaves change colors and we sit down at the table with our family and friends to share good food and fellowship. It is also this time of year that we are reminded to By Rev. Krista Beth Atwood give thanks for everything that God has given us. Our American holiday of Thanksgiving (Nov. 26) reminds us of the fellowship between the Pilgrims and the Native Americans, and the abundance that God supplied in the midst of a harsh year in a strange land. The Jewish holiday of Succoth is also this time of year (Oct. 2-9). It is a celebration and remembrance of God’s protection during the years the Israelites spent in the wilderness. During this time God provided quail and manna for the people to eat. Once they moved into the Promised Land, God’s provision continued with food supplied from the land. We have many reasons to give thanks. Yet, in the world we live in today, we often become disconnected from the time of harvest. We don’t need to store food up ahead of time because we can always go to Price Chopper when we run out! At the grocery store we find

*********** If you haven't done so already, you might take a look at a marvelous French film called "Serafine", the true story of the relationship between the painter who would be called a primitive or naïf painter such as Grandma Moses and her fellow citizens, who did not understand her paintings at all.. It is fascinating to see that her financial hardships caused her to be exceptionally inventive about materials such as color and oils. It is also wonderful to see a story about a human being who is so entranced and so dedicated to the natural world. While this is Scrafine's story, there is a second story attached to the German art critic Wilhelm Uhde, who financed her. The film also raises the question of what the association is between genius and madness, and if one necessarily demands the presence of the other. If you like your movies long on visual and short on aural, this is a magnificent film for you to see. It will be running at least through Thursday evening, October 22 at the Roxy in downtown Burlington. Try not to miss it.

A security camera behind a teller at the Randolph National Bank on North Main Street in Rochester snapped a video image of this bank robber Oct. 15. ROCHESTER — At approximately 9:36 a.m. on Oct. 15, the Vermont State Police received a report of a bank robbery that had just occurred at the Randolph National Bank on North Main Street in Rochester. The robbers got away in a black Honda Civic with Massachusetts registration 7305ED. The vehicle was occupied by two males. The vehicle may have crossed into Addison County or headed south or north. If you have seen this vehicle, please call the Vermont State Police immediately at 234-9933. Do not approach or attempt to stop the vehicle.
SAD sufferers may find a “cure” in multi treatments If you suffer from SAD, seasonal affective disorder, you couldn’t find a glommier place to live than Vermont. Vermont’s long, cold, damp, cloudy winters are the worst things for SAD sufferers; many SAD victims dream of moving to either Arizona or Florida during the dark nadir of a Vermont winter. Now, a new approach to treating SAD may enable more sufferers to live out rich, full lives during the winter months in the Green Mountain State. In the September issue of the journal Behavior Therapy, Kelly Rohan, associate professor of psychology at the University of Vermont, presents the first published research study of the long-term effects of different treatments for seasonal affective disorder (SAD), a form of severe depression that occurs annually in the fall and winter seasons. The first year Rohan randomized 69 people with SAD into one of four groups: light therapy treatment, cognitive behavior therapy (CBT), a combination of the two or a wait-list control. She then surveyed participants on how they were doing the next winter—one year later. Of those treated with CBT, only 7 percent had a recurrence compared to 36.7 percent of people treated with light therapy. The recurrence rate for the combination group was 5.5 percent. When Rohan looked at the severity of the depression that did occur, however, CBT was associated with less severe depression than those treated with either light therapy or a combination of both. In a previous study that measured the acute affects of each treatment (immediately following six weeks of intervention), combination therapy was highly effective, with a nearly 80 percent remission rate compared to 50 percent for both CBT and light therapy alone and 20 percent on the wait-list. Rohan hypothesizes that such dramatic results for the combination therapy are the result of being in a heavily monitored study with full participation. When people are left on their own to manage symptoms the subsequent winter, follow-through is much more difficult. This “watered-down” effect of a two-modality treatment, Rohan notes, has been reported for 20 years across psychology disorders of all sorts. “People treated with only CBT–that’s all they know,” she says, “so I think they do it with gusto in the next year and reap the benefits.” Of the light therapy group, only four people used it on their own the following winter. Rohan considers this unsurprising given the commitment the treatment requires: 30 minutes sitting in front of a light box every day through the difficult season. Her data shows that long-term compliance is rare. A $2 million, five-year grant from the National Institute of Mental Health will advance the next phase of Rohan’s research. In the Cadillac version of the trial, as she calls it, Rohan will follow a much larger sample, 160 people, over two consecutive winters. That study, in progress now, will compare only CBT and light therapy. “The combination therapy may blow your socks off across six weeks of the initial winter,” says Rohan, “but if it doesn’t have good long-term outcomes, what is the point? This is a recurrent depression. It’s going to come back every year in some form and I want to develop treatments that are going to have lasting effects.” If you are a SAD sufferer and would like to take part in UVM’s Winter Blues Study, call 656-9890.

Adams Family announce a Halloween surprise By Lou Varricchio WILMINGTON—A landmark Vermont family farm— known as the Adams Family Farm—is closing on Halloween, Oct. 31, after 144 years in business. The historic farm opened a week before the end of the Civil War, and just a few weeks prior to the assassination of President Abraham Lincoln. Located in Wilmington, Vt., the farm’s current owners reported that they can no longer maintain the farm as a profitable agri business. The farm relied on tourists since the 1990s. Jill Adams-Mancivalano and her husband currently operate the farm which was first opened to tourists in 1993. Because of the historic nature of the farm, the Adams Family Farm attracted more than 20,000 tourists a year. Vermont’s oldest existing dairy farm, the Hurlburt Farm located in New Haven, was opened in 1801. It is threatened by foreclosure due to excessive back taxes. Adams-Mancivalano said 2009’s wet and cool summer season, plus the depressed national economy, was the final nail in the 19th-century Adams Family Farm’s coffin. The Adams Family Farm operated as a large dairy farm from 1865 until the 1980s, when the family opted to participate in a buyout program. Adams-Mancivalano is a respected leader in Vermont's agricultural business. Despite the news of her family’s farm closing, she will remain an active promoter of agritourism in the state.
UNLUCKY 13 — The delightful days of Indian Summer in Vermont came to an end last week. Portions of our region received its first snowfall Oct. 13 as evidenced by this farm scene located near the county line. It isn’t unusual to see the first snowfall of the season during Columbus Day week. At the moment, the ground is still too warm to retain the white stuff.

Ask Dr. Curtis Gross Chiropractor Q: Is it important for a patient to see their x-rays? A: That’s a matter of opinion. Some chiropractors don’t take x-rays in diagnosing a patient and preparing to treat that patient. The majority of chiropractors, however, take x-rays to better understand the spine they are working on. This is how I practice. If there is pain or a history of trauma, it’s a good idea to assess the condition as accurately as possible and x-rays are a big help in that way. I always show these x-rays to the patient on their next visit. There are a few reasons I make this an office policy. First of all I want the patient to understand the depth of severity of their problem and you know what they say: a picture is worth a thousand words. It’s common for a patient to be stunned when they see how bad their spine looks. The alignment, the disc spaces and degree of arthritis are some of the issues we discuss at this important appointment. Patients often gain an understanding of why they have recurring episodes of back trouble when they see the condition their spine is in. I take the time to show them each x-ray and put their problem in proper perspective. Whether the patient chooses to undergo chiropractic care or not, at least they know the health of their spine when they make that decision. “the greatest wealth is health” Call 388-6376, mention this article and schedule an appointment for a FREE Evaluation and X-rays. www.middleburychiropractic.com 64511

BRANDON — Firefighters across Chittenden, Addison, and Rutland counties spent Oct. 4-10 broadcasting the life-saving message of national Fire Prevention Week. Volunteer and paid members of area fire departments, such as firefighters of the Brandon Fire Department, visited schools, businesses and attended community group meetings to discuss ways to prevent fires and develop personal fire prevention plans. Several local firefighting squads released lists of interesting facts about fire in the community— In 2008, U.S. fire departments responded to 386,500 home fires. These fires killed 2,755 civilians. Eighty-three percent of all fire deaths resulted from home fires. Nationwide, a fire department responded to a home fire every 81 seconds. Many Vermont fires and fire-related deaths happened in the months of December, January and February. Cooking continues to be the leading cause of home fires and home fire injuries locally. Smoking materials caused one of every four home fire deaths in Vermont and else-

Myths may be a polite way of referring to statements or beliefs that are believed true, but are not accurate or totally true. The Internet has made possible the easy proliferation of such misinformation. Two of these myths relating to household products used in landscapes, often in attempts to be sustainable, concern Epsom salts and baking soda. The common household ingredient Epsom salts (magnesium sulfate) has been widely recommended for many garden uses including to control pests, to deter slugs and voles, to make plants grow bushier, to increase chlorophyll (the green in leaves) production, to help seeds germinate, to produce more flowers, and to improve uptake of some nutrients. Recommendations also are seen on how much to regularly feed plants from trees and shrubs to houseplants, and in particular tomatoes. The reality, if one examines the research on this chemical back to early in the last century, is that it does correct and has been effectively used for magnesium deficiency in soils or plants. Other than this, it is generally a myth that applying Epsom salts will fulfill the often-seen claims to otherwise healthy plants. One claim is that Epsom salts won't accumulate in, and so won't hurt, the soil. What isn't mentioned is that it will be leached, and so potentially pollute water, instead. Epsom salts are highly soluble, and if applied in excess can leach into water (49 percent in one study), the pollution negating its benefits. Other less soluble forms of magnesium supplements often are better. This is especially true on soils under high rainfall or irrigation. Another common household ingredient, baking soda (sodium bicarbonate), is claimed and believed by many to kill fungi on plants and to reduce diseases. The reality is that baking soda (by the way it's not legally labeled for use as a fungicide) helps prevent rather than kill diseases. The baking soda acts by making surfaces more alkaline-- not conducive for growth of fungi. So it is technically fungistatic (prevents fungi growing) rather than fungicidal (kills fungi).

A fun-loving crew of 100 firefighters and other volunteer staffers keep the tricks and treats coming year after year. By the looks of the place, it looks like these fire guys and dolls missed their calling as Hollywood special effects artists. There are plenty of scary corners and rooms in he Pittsford Haunted House: the Crypt Keeper ’s Chamber, the Pittsford Morgue, Doc’s Room, the Executioner ’s Room and the Big Drum. Some visitors to the haunted house enjoy a ride in what can only be described as a “funbulance”, a spacious 1972 Cadillac ambulance that must have been custom-designed by Gomez Addams. The event will be held Oct. 16-17 and Oct., 23-24. The rain date is Oct. 25. Admission is charged.

Tigers Outlast Dogs 42-28 By Frederick Pockette newmarketpress@denpubs.com
In high school football action the Middlebury Tigers built a commanding 42-7 lead and then held off a come back attempt to defeat the Burr and Burton Bulldogs 42-28 last Friday night in Manchester. Quarterback Brandon Burrell had a 18-yard run and threw a 33-yard touchdown pass to Ryan Foley, who also had a short touchdown run. Marshall Hastings returned a punt 76 yards for a touchdown, along with an interception 48 yards for another score. The Tigers final touchdown came when Jerry Hoffman returned the secondhalf kickoff 72 yards Jared Bove ran for two touchdowns while quarterback Jake Stalcup threw second-half TD passes to Jake Olivier and Edis Muminovic for Burr and Burton’s 28 points. Middlebury improved to 5-2 with the win. Like the Tigers the Champlain Valley Union Redhawks pulled off a road victory last Friday night. Derek Goodwin rushed for 119 yards on 13 carried to lead CVU to a 21-14 win over Newport. Though Goodwin didn’t find the end zone on offense, he did defensively when he recovered a fumble and returned in for a touchdown for the game’s first score. CVU quarterback Eric Palmer tossed a 6-yard touchdown to Konnor Fleming in the second quarter and J. P. Benoit finished CVU’s scoring with a 3-yard touchdown run late in the third quarter. Emile Hartman had two touchdown runs, accounting for all of North Country’s points. Last Saturday in Bristol Mount Abraham’s struggles continued. Jake Bielecki ran for three touchdowns and caught a pass for another to lead the Oxbow Olympians to a 57-0 drubbing of the Mount Abraham Eagles. Quarterback Barry Weigel added two touchdowns runs while Zach Smith and Zach Klunder contributed a TD run each to the onslaught. Oxbow improved to 3-4overall, and are 2-3 in Division III play.
