Come to the 2010 Vermont State Fair!

In the fall of 1846, the first Rutland fair took place in a field near Castleton with Frederick Button being the first President of the Rutland County Agricultural Society.

After moving around Rutland County for a few years, the Rutland fair grew closer to Rutland City, sometimes setting up on land owned by John Cain (now Grove Street north of Crescent) or on the old Baxter Estate.

In 1859 the first Rutland Fair was held at it’s present location. The present land was known as the Rutland County Park back then. There is a provision in a deed that there must be a agricultural fair held on said property once a year.

The first year the fair was closed was in 1917 when the State of Vermont closed Wynonna Judd appeared at the the fair with all Vermont State Fair Sept. 6. other public gatherings due to an epidemic of influenza.

The fairgrounds belongs to the RCAS, but if they do not have a fair, it would convert to the original heirs and assigns of the original subscribers.

The Rutland Railyard was built in 1849 and after a few years began putting extra cars on to bring people from all over Vermont and western New York.

The fair started as a one day event, moved to a two day event and in 1893 the fair was held for three days. By 1933 the fair was a six day event.

In 1926 the Rutland Fair was rated the third largest in New England and among the top 10 in the nation.

The discussion of pedestrian and automobile tunnels were first discussed in 1915. The auto tunnel was built in 1991 and the pedestrian tunnel was built in 1992.

On June 17, 1939, a great fire completely destroyed the grandstand. The reconstruction of

newmarketpress@denpubs.com Chittenden Reservoir Day, the annual cleanup and celebration of the lake, will be held Sept. 18.

The event will run from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., with cleanup in the morning hours and a hotdog cookout in the afternoon.

Vermont Adventure Tours will give guided canoe tours of the reservoir, and the Green Mountain National Forest will be on hand to provide general forest information and maps.

Free T-shirts will be given to the first 200 participants.

Chittenden Reservoir took two years to build and began providing renewable energy in 1909. The 750-acre reservoir and land below it is owned by Central Vermont Public Service, along with the parking area and boat launch.

Besides its role as CVPSÕ s largest hydroelectric facility, the reservoir is one of VermontÕ s most pristine recreation sites. Seventeen square

Try dipping 70 cats twice a week.They catch on fast and dread smelling the sulphur dip knowing what is coming.

But then they calm down after it is over and hold no grudges.

Fortunately so far still only one animal has yet to have ringworm. This is the critical time as the cultures will begin showing anything if it exists elsewhere. All signs so far are that we caught it in time and should soon be open for business as usual. Keep your fingers and eyes crossed for us!! Call the Shelter at 885-3997 because when we are open we will trumpet it on our answering machine!

If you can spare a little for a donation at this time send it in to 401 Skitchewaug Trail, Springfield 05156 and we’ll start replacing items as the building is readied to re-open. We’ll need a LOT of sealable plastic totes in various sizes so if anyone has good ones you are not using, we can use them!

We had to cancel our September clinic but we will resume on Oct. 12 in Byron Springfield, Nov. 2 in Chester and Dec. 7 in Springfield. They fill fast so reserve your space now by calling 885-2174.

Reservoir From page 1 miles of mountainous terrain drain into the reservoir, creating spectacular habitat for dozens of species of birds, amphibians, reptiles, fish and mammals. Home to bald eagles and ospreys, moose, beavers and loons, the reservoir is one of Vermont’s most undeveloped mountain lakes.

“I paddle at the reservoir two or three days a week during the summer and fall, and I can’t think of a more perfect place to enjoy Vermont,” CVPS spokesman Steve Costello said.

“From the dam to the farthest reaches of the water, there is something new around every corner, and there’s always enough room for solitude, even on the busiest days of the year.”

The reservoir level has been at late-summer levels since spring due to work at a generating station downstream. The low water created miles of sandy beaches that thousands of people have enjoyed over the course of the summer.

“The use of the reservoir appears to be at an all-time high this year,” Costello said. “That’s great, but the low water also means there has been foot access to areas where people seldom walked in the past, and there is more litter around the lake than in years past. That makes this year ’s Chittenden Reservoir Day even more important.”

Volunteers will fan out on land and water to scour campsites, isolated beaches and wetlands. Since Chittenden Reservoir first began in 2002, several tons of trash has been picked up and deposited in dumpsters provided free by Casella Waste Management, which is co-sponsoring the event again this year, as it has every year.

Local history

Remembering the Rutland Railroad

Crosby's Coal was located in Danby, Vt., on the old Rutland Railroad. Built in 1914 the building still stands today. Similar coal dealers could be found throughout the country. Hopper loads of coal would be unloaded into the coal bins from which the coal would be sold to local homes and buisinesses. This HO-scale model faithfully recreates Crosby’s.

The Rutland Railroad was a small railroad in the northeastern United States, primarily in the state of Vermont but extending into the state of New York.

The earliest ancestor of the Rutland, the Rutland & Burlington Railroad, was chartered in 1843 by the state of Vermont to build between Rutland and Burlington. A number of other railroads were formed in the region, and by 1867 the Rutland & Burlington Railroad had changed its name to simply the Rutland Railroad.

Between 1871 and 1896 the Rutland Railroad was leased to the Central Vermont, regaining its independence when

that road entered receivership. The New York Central Railroad briefly had a controlling interest in the Rutland from 1904, but sold half of its shares to the New York, New Haven & Hartford Railroad in 1911.

Never a solid financial operation, the Rutland entered receivership for the first time in 1938. Cost cutting, including wage reduction, brought things around.

After World War II, the decline continued. Many branches were closed down. 1950 saw the reorganisation as the Rutland Railway. 1953 saw three weeks of employee strike action, which killed off the remaining passenger service on the line.

Further strike action in 1961 brought the realisation that the railroad was not viable under the conditions demanded by the unions, and the management applied to the Interstate Commerce Commission for complete abandonment. This was approved, and the railroad closed down on May 20, 1963. The strike was brought on by the employees' unwillingness to accept operational changes that would have moved the center of Rutland operations from Rutland to Burlington. This would have required them to relocate from Rutland to Burlington.

The operational changes would have lengthened the runs, running from Burlington to Bellows Falls or Ogdensburg on one day, staying over and then running back the next day.

Under current operating orders they would make the run from Rutland to Burlington or Bellows Falls and back in a day, or from Malone, N.Y., running out and back to Ogdensburg, N.Y. and Burlington.

A few years later the national unions agreed to nationwide job changes that allowed this type of change. If the Rutland local unions had been more flexible they would saved their jobs and their employer's business.

Much of the right-of-way was purchased by the State of Vermont. The Northern Division across the top of New York State from Ogdensburg to Norwood remains in tracks. Interestingly, it is operated by Vermont Railway, so all the re-

maining trackage of the Rutland is operated by one company.

Ownership of the railbed from Norwood to Burlington has been dispersed, but a 21-mile section from Norwood to Moira is the multi-use Rutland Trail.

Rings around Le Grande A

t the dawn of the Eocene epoch when Metasequoia trees, today’s living-fossils known as dawn redwoods, towered in northern latitudes and primitive horses thrived in the humid underbrush, summers were hot and winters were comfortBy Lou Varricchio ably cool.

Colder winters and the extinction of hundreds of species—now known as Les Grande Coupure or the Big Break—marked the Eocene’s end. This unusual event occurred approximately 35 million years ago.

Despite the change in winters, Eocene summers remained hot. Many scientists believe an asteroid impact— with a signature crater now buried under the Chesapeake Bay in Virginia—may have caused the Eocene extinctions and associated climate change. But unlike the dinos’ K-T extinction, the Eocene deaths are not as extensive.

According to a theory that was championed by my mentor and friend, the late NASA astronomer Dr. John O'Keefe, we may have to look elsewhere in space for the Eocene killer.

O'Keefe, the man who discovered Earth's slight pearshape in 1958 and helped establish America’s lunar geology program, believed the Chesapeake Bay impact was simply too small to have caused the Grande Coupure. Instead, he theorized, a temporary, Saturn-like ring of tektites around the Earth was to blame. Such an unstable ring, which might have lasted a million years or more, could have cast a shadow across the hemispheres as the seasons changed.

I should note that the ring theory has gained some traction since O’Keefe. Canadian astronomer Jay Jayawardena strongly supports the O’Keefe ring theory. His landmark paper, presenting new data about a ring around Earth, appeared in the October 2004 issue of the Journal of the Royal Astronomical Society of Canada.

O’Keefe calculated that such a ring would have screened out nearly a third of the sunshine falling to Earth—about as much as a kitchen window screen.

Tektites are glassy stones found in so-called "strewn fields" worldwide (their sizes range from the tiny, called microtektites, to large, lava-like chunks called Muong Nongs or layered tektites). They are nearly free of water and other volatiles.

Tektite strewn fields differ widely in age, but most tektites, regardless of age, are meteorite-like and some show evidence of atmospheric entry—a phenomenon called ablation. Eocene-age tektites found in North America appear to have fallen in a vast arc from New England to Texas.

They are clearly not associated with the Chesapeake crater.

Impact craters, larger and smaller than Chesapeake Bay, can be found that have no tektites associated with them while the chemical composition of tektites resembles that

The Blue-Red split T

o understand the current red-state interest in the Tenth Amendment, a little early 19th century history is relevant.

It’s better termed as States Rights. However, all-too-typically, any mention of States’ Rights automatically brings forth charges of “racism” from the all-power-belongs-toWashington opposition.

One recent exception: when the Feds demanded achievement-testing of public-school students, the educator lobby demanded (and got) the right, within each state, for the local ed-bureaucracy to select its own (nice-n-easy) test in lieu of the Federal one.

Now States’ Rights is back, and, interestingly, as in the original Constitutional argument, on economic grounds: the wealth-transfer mandates in the new Health Care legislation.

In my own, long-distant junior high days only the slavery aspect of the 19th century States’ Right question was included in the version of the Civil War we were taught— Lincoln as the Great Emancipator, not Lincoln as the Great Tariff Collector. Not taught were such subjects as the antebellum efforts of the Southern States to deal with federal tariffs they didn’t approve; they called their remedy nullification. It was based on the Tenth Amendment, which had been in the Bill of Rights from the national beginning.

The historical evidence shows that the pre-Civil War (1832) secession warning to Washington was based on resistance to the economics of a protectionist tariff designed to favor northern manufacturers at the expense of Southern agriculture, and not on the slavery question, as we were later taught.

We weren’t taught, either, that Fort Sumter was a tariff collection point, and that the Southern blockade attempt in 1861 started as a new protest against a new tariff.

The old tariff had been cancelled in 1832, in a Washington quid-pro-quo in which the nullification/secession threat was also canceled. The new tariff legislation, drafted

by Vermont’s own Justin Morrill, raised the rate from 15 to 38 and then to 48 percent and Lincoln promised in his inauguration speech, two days later, to collect it by means of “invasion force” if needed. Several historians –Reinhard Luthin, Frank Taussig, Thomas di Lorenzo—trace the subsequent seven-State Southern secession decision to that Presidential vow.

This time around, the subject isn’t a tariff, but a healthcare mandate of equal or greater economic impact, and now there are 21 states challenging the feds. One, Missouri, has just voted its own nullification threat, as all

counties except (of course) the welfare-heavy cities of St. Louis and Kansas City rejected the new Health Care law and its monetary implications. Another, Virginia, has just had its rightto-sue legally upheld. Nineteen more states have joined the suit.

Lincoln’s claim to the admirable title of Great Emancipator could have been far achieved by adherence to the Fifth Amendment principle of compensation for federal property takings (emancipation) rather than by the use of military force to suppress the Constitutional requirements of the Tenth Amendment.

To the extent that history sometimes repeats itself –in broad outline, if not specific detail-- the current crop of Tenthers (and the Feds as well) would do well to study the last major effort by a handful of states to deal with federal action aimed at confiscation of the wealth created by their citizens. What the real history –not the junior-high version—describes is that aggrieved states didn’t hesitate to challenge Washington on economic grounds then, and they are doing the same thing now.

In 1832, Washington backed down; in 1861 it didn’t.

Question: are the 29 blue states ready, today, to enforce their control-wishes by military force against the 21 red states, as the 25 did against the first-seven then-11?

I’d base my guess on a nearly 30-year-old book by one Joel Garreau, “The Nine Nations of North America”. In the book the author speculates on the reorganization of the present three countries into nine smaller autonomous units, each more homogeneous along lines of political ideology, ethnicity, or economic focus.

Garreau was 20 years ahead of the actual slow-motion sub-division of the U.S. along red and blue political lines, but it takes little imagination to visualize the emerging demographic fact as the basis for a new Heartland predominantly rural (red) nation next to (not governed by) a new bicoastal predominantly urban (blue) nation, a configuration brought about through an uncontested secession.

Conversely, it takes a lot of imagination to foresee how the predominantly wealth-consuming—through transfer payments and social services—blue nation might continue to function without the ability to tap the wealth-generation of the red nation.

Put their feet to the fire T

he primaries are over and the winning candidates are now in their final run toward Election Day (November 2). Now is the time that citizens concerned about the state's future can pin down those candidates on their positions on key issues they'll face in the forthcoming legislative session.

Bear in mind that candidates do not want to be pinned down. Their natural tendency is to evade, sidestep, mislead, and obscure. The trick to pinning down candidates is to ask straightforward, informed questions that minimize the candidate's opportunity to squirm out of a commitment. (Getting answers in writing, or declared before witnesses, is also very valuable.) Here are twelve questions that may be useful.

1. The Vermont income tax now has a top bracket of 8.95 percent, applied on taxable incomes in excess of $336,550.

To what level, if any, would you vote to increase that rate to raise more revenues from the wealthy?

2. The 2011 legislature will vote on whether to allow the Public Service Board to issue a certificate of public good to allow the Vermont Yankee nuclear power plant to continue to operate after 2012. Will you vote to allow the PSB to make this determination? Or will you vote to prevent PSB consideration, and thus cause the shutdown of the plant, regardless of the cost and sources of the power needed to replace its 600Mw output?

3. For years some legislators have proposed that the government institute a single payer universal access health care system, where private health insurance and premiums are abolished, all Vermonters are entitled to the benefits of a government-designed taxpayer-financed health insurance plan, and the state compensates all health care providers out of such tax dollars as may be available for that purpose. Would you support creation of such a system? If so, which tax or taxes would you vote to raise to finance it?

4. To combat "climate change", the 2006 legislature committed to requiring Vermonters to reduce their emissions of carbon dioxide to 50 percent below the level prevailing in 1990, by the year 2028. Will you vote to authorize the regulations and energy taxes necessary to achieve this very large reduction? Or will you vote to repeal this Act (Act 168)?

5. One candidate for Governor has pledged to institute universal preschool programs at taxpayer expense. In the absence of any evidence that preschooling for 3- and 4-

year olds produces any measurable or lasting improvement in educational achievement, will you vote to establish universal preschools?

6. The outgoing governor and others have proposed to rein in public education spending by having the state require higher pupil-teacher ratios and impose caps on increases in local school district spending. Will you support either or both of those proposals?

7. The 2009 legislature enacted a law (Act 45) to require Vermont utilities to buy wind and solar generated electricity at three to five times the market price, in order to make those renewable energy companies economically viable.

Will you vote to repeal this "feed in tariff" requirement?

8. For five years wireless tower siting has been under the jurisdiction of the Public Service Board, which unlike the district environmental commissions can take into account economic benefits. That law sunsets in July 2011.

Will you vote to make the law permanent?

9. Will you vote to introduce consideration of economic benefits into the Act 250 land use and development regulatory process, so that job and revenue creation can outweigh some allegedly adverse environmental effects?

10. If the "Challenge for Change" process created in 2010 fails to produce the expected $38 million in state spending reductions in FY11, will you vote to make up the shortfall from the state's rainy day funds?

11. Will you vote to preserve existing parental choice in education, and extend it via any or all of public school choice, charter schools, virtual schools, or vouchers for use in any approved independent education program?

12. The legislature has given the Public Service Board the power to levy "efficiency assessments" on your electric bill. It has given the Milk Commission power to levy "assessments" on fluid milk sold in Vermont stores. Will you vote to require that only the legislature, accountable to the people, can raise taxes on the people?

Happy hunting. And if your candidate declines to respond, tell everyone you know, and by all means look for another candidate.

Amos, a Vermont psychobiologist, became interested in all things wild, especially the behavior of birds and reptiles, while an exceptional student at Hiram College in Ohio. He convinced his department chairman to create his own unique academic major—a field he calls psychobiology.

Now Amos travels around the state with his carefully tended animal companions, including Jake the Snake, a nine-foot long, red-tailed boa constrictor from South America.

“Kids love him,” Amos said.

The biologist is very mindful as his role as the wild animal’s guardian, not master. So, he treats Jake with humane respect and care while handling.

The wildlife expert appeared at the Mt. Holly Public Library in Belmont last week for a fascinating family program about reptiles.

However, the star of the library show wasn’t Amos—it was Jake.

“Jake the Snake loves company,” he told attendees when he and Jake greeted them at the library. “He’s just waiting for the chance to visit with you.”

Amos formed his own Vermont-based natural science project a few years ago.

Called Amos Natural Science Education Service, Amos uses digital slides, various bio specimens, and some readings to introduce audiences to the wonderful world biology and and animal behavior.

Amos said he receives similar questions about Jake the boa constrictor wherever he lectures—“How long can they live? What is Jake’s primary sense? Where does Jake’s tail actually begin and end? What kinds of snakes are found in Vermont?”

After a brief introduction, Amos removed Jake the Snake from his mobile lair for all to examination—up close.

“You can hold Jake, if you

wish,” he told several children. And as if on cue, several fearless children took him up on the offer. And by the looks of it, Jake definitely enjoyed the attention.

As a naturalist, biologist, curator, teacher, and author, Amos lives the life most of us only dream about.

He grew up with biologist father and was introduced to the wild world of nature and animals at a very early age. As a youngster, he spent a year studying wildlife in Hawaii when his father was on a teaching sabbatical.

“During my college years at Hiram College, where I received a degree in psychobiology with an emphasis on animal behavior and a minor in studio art, I was student director for the college’s biological field station,” he said.

By Amos’ own reckoning, he has over 25 years of professional experience in the natural sciences.

“For 11 years I worked as senior keeper of birds at the Baltimore Zoo in Maryland and curator of the tropical rainforest and North Atlantic seabirds exhibits at the National Aquarium in

PCM Image-Tek, a Rutland County electronic assembly services provider, announced the completion of a strategic energy conservation initiative that will reduce the company’s energy consumption by more than 75,000 kWh per year for the next 15 years.

The three-month project involved replacing the lighting system on the company’s 35,000 square foot manufacturing floor with a highly efficient lighting system that significantly improves manufacturing floor lighting while reducing energy consumption by more than half. The project, which was managed by Efficiency Vermont, will save the company more than $11,000 per year and has a payback period of two and half years.

the Snake, Amos does afterschool programs here and leads nature-study trips to exotic locales—many geared for adult and high school student groups.

After, Amos’ Mt. Holly Public Library presentation, he packed up Jake in his travel cage and headed for the parking lot. His next stop—another Vermont library presentation with Jake the Snake.

“Well, I sure put a lot of mileage on my car,” Amos said, “but I do this full-time now; it’s my livelihood. It’s rewarding work because I enjoy sharing my love of biology with Vermonters of all ages. I especially hope to inspire boys and girls to get interested in the natural environment as well as to consider careers in science. In Vermont we’re very lucky; we’re surrounded by nature.”

Finally, what does Amos like to do for relaxation?

“Well, I like bird-watching, perennial gardening, nature photography, and collecting political memorabilia—it can’t all be about natural science,” he said.

Baltimore. I performed research on the dietary and reproductive habits of waterfowl, puffins, tropical birds, and poison dart frogs, among other species,” he said.

Amos is best known to Vermonters as the former curator of and lead educator at the Fairbanks Museum and Planetarium in St. Johnsbury. Visitors to the museum often met Amos and enjoyed his presentations about wildlife.

In 1997, Amos headed up a research team in the Andes Mountains of Patagonia to study the local fauna. That exotic study was just one more facet of an impressive career-oriented itinerary— he has explored the Amazon basin, coastal and inland Belize, various Caribbean islands, both Costa Rica’s Atlantic and Pacific coasts, Europe, evolutionist Charles Darwin’s famous Galapagos Islands, the volcanic ecosystems of Hawaii and Iceland, England’s Jersey Islands, remote Patagonia, steamy Suriname, and leechinfested Venezuela.

In addition to his travels around Vermont with Jake

newmarketpress@denpubs.com Vermont Electric Power Company (VELCO) is inviting neighbors of its West Rutland Substation, and other interested people, to an informational session about a proposed project to upgrade the facility. The meeting will be held Wednesday, Sept. 15, 5:30 to 6:30 p.m., at the substation located at 3000 Pleasant St., in West Rutland.

VELCO construction and community outreach staff will explain the proposed upgrade and answer any questions about the project.

The meeting is one of several steps leading up to a formal request for a permit from the Vermont Public Service Board to construct the project. The board requires that VELCO provide 45 days’ notice, including a detailed project description, to local select boards and other officials. This enables community leaders to review and discuss the project’s im-

pacts with residents, and to provide input before the start of formal proceedings before the Board. VELCO provided the 45-day notice to the West Rutland Select Board, the West Rutland Planning Commission as well as the Rutland Regional Planning Commission on Aug. 11.

The proposed West Rutland Substation Upgrade would install two “capacitor banks,” equipment designed to control voltage when demand for electricity is high, and its associated controls. VELCO will expand the substation fence about 20 feet to the West on previously disturbed land to accommodate the additional equipment.

In September, VELCO plans to formally apply to the Vermont Public Service Board for project approval. Subject to Board approval, construction will begin in May 2011 and be complete in October 2011.

People interested in attending the neighborhood meeting should contact Shana Duval at sduval@velco.com or call 802-770-6381. For more information, visit http://www.velco.com/Projects/wrutlandsub.

Look out for Elin!

E

lin finally texted me. Wasn’t her fault she took so long to reply to the letter I wrote her last—what— December was it? Guess she felt she had to wait ‘til the divorce was final.

Well, it’s final and she’s ah comin’ north—bringing the kids and $59 million with her. Now that don’t matter—the money, hang, Elin could be a pauper and still be welcome to my world, but like she says, “Money can’t buy happiness, but it is making some things easier.” So it will seem.

Her text (while reading her words, best to affect a cute and slight lispy Swedish accent): “Russie, I, hervy, verny, have decided to accept your offer to, how did, verny, you put it, in your cute as a bugs ear woodman accent, ‘head to da north country and settle in… bring the cubs,’ – like you I like to hike, and write, so yes, seems we’re a fit. Russie, me and the cubs are herny, verny, as you would say… headed.”

Cripes! Gotta take all her pictures off my walls, and ceiling and doors, and so on— right off. Then I’ll get to work whittling her a pair of wooden shoes, big bulky ones

so when we hike I can keep up. I’ll leave a rough spot on an edge. Tweezing slivers from Swedish girl feet… something I’ve thought about for years, no kidding. My buddy says it’s Dutch folks who wear wooden shoes. I think Swedes do, too. I hope so. We’ll see.

Hmmm, I’m guessing she’s tall and has fairly good-sized feet (I see in a photo from People magazine she has long toes), so I have my work cut out. Making ‘em from rock maple—good Vermont stock. If she likes ‘em, I’ll whittle her a jog-bra from hemlock. Ha, that’s a joke.

I e-mailed her. I don’t text. Well, I receive texts, but I don’t send them. I don’t have the plan. So I e-mailed her suggesting we should breed right off ourselves a strong tall Swedish Dutch kid. (My name, de Wees, is Dutch for “the Orphan”) A half and half.

Maybe it’ll become President someday, and anyway it’ll have a good shot at being one hang of a skiing, painting son of a gun.

Told her she and I should spread our genes to at least one human. Told her nothing bad health wise runs in the de Wees

family, and after I have my colonoscopy in November, if I come out of it polyp less, we should reproduce for sure. She texted back she’d think about it.

I wrote her I know a good place that’ll look after the kids when we can go hiking and stuff.

“Humpty Dumpty Day Care,” they even take the cracked ones. Humpty Dumpty Day Care actually exists, I made up the cracked ones part. I picture her chuckling as she read it. Cute. Good day-care, and cheap. Told her we’d hike, kayak, run around. I wondered if she liked to mow. I can see her commanding the Toro rider in her Osh Gosh denim overalls, no undies, worn Frye boots, Rolex watch, hammerin through some high stuff, sun reflecting off the hood of the tractor to her pretty face that is glistening with sweat. Swedish sweat, that one should imagine runs pure and cool as water from a mountain spring.

Frig.

You could tell by her reply texts she was getting into the picture I was painting of what looks like might be her post divorce life/predicament. “Herny, Verny,” she replied, then sent “!!” in a follow-up text.

She texted she was thinking of letting her hair grow out brown, going natural altogether, head to toe, stopping her weekly mani and pedicures, and yoga lattes classes. I e mailed back, “Elin, you should do whatever makes you feel totally well. But at the same time, I’m hoping ‘natural altogether ’ doesn’t mean letting all your hairs grow out. I’m just sayin.”

I ended our e-chat by stating that not only would I never cheat on her, but that her clink would count as ringer whenever we play horseshoes.

Must be she likes the plan, cause a text arrived ten minutes ago stating that she arrives Sept. 11.

That’s the ninth anniversary of the World Trade bombings. Prayers and Elin on Sept. 11. Boonful things both.

of high-silica materials like granite or rhyolite, not sedimentary material. The origin of tektites by meteorite or comet impact on Earth cannot be squared with known physical principles of how natural glass forms. They just don't resemble impact glasses.

The subject of tektites is a complex one; there's no easy telling of how the various shapes form and cool. A tektite, is largely free of impurities; the so-called splashform tektites (shaped like teardrops and dumbbells) took seconds to cool in the vacuum of space while larger, layered chunks took many minutes to form and cool. Conversely, all natural impact glass forms within seconds of an impact and contains many impurities.

If tektites aren't formed by impact, as O'Keefe went to the grave believing, then where do they come from?

O'Keefe pointed to one smoking gun regarding the origin of tektites. The astronomer sites an extensive study of Apollo 12 specimen no. 12013 which strongly suggests a lunar origin. Analysis shows that the unusual lunar rock is a lot like Asian tektites in major chemical element composition.

O'Keefe's hypothetical ring would have been blown away by sunshine. In the frictionless environment of space that's enough to sweep away a ring in a million years or so.

‘Golden Horde’ plan spirit weekend, Sept. 17-18

By Lou Varricchio newmarketpress@denpubs.com West Rutland School—home of the Golden Horde—is unique among Vermont’s schools. Located in West Rutland, the school enrolls 400 students from the town and a few surrounding towns. However, what sets it apart from other area schools is the fact that the school serves students in grades K-12 and includes an early education classroom in the building.

Principal Jim Bowen said students and parents are looking forward to the big WRS Homecoming Weekend, Sept. 1718.

“It’s a special weekend for community and school spirit,” Bowen said.

Part of the Rutland Central Supervisory Union, which serves Proctor High School, Proctor Elementary School and Rutland Town in addition to West Rutland, WRS offers a complete academic program, including several alternative programs; WRS students also attend the Stafford Technical Center WRS will celebrate Homecoming Weekend with a soccer

fest against long-time rival Proctor. Unlike many rival high schools, WRS discontinued its once formidable football program several years ago.

The festivities begin Friday, Sept. 17 with a big bonfire at dusk. The ritual fire is then followed by a school dance.

On Saturday, Sept. 18, homecoming events start at 10 a.m. with a dunking booth, kick soccer event, and safety activities. Then, the afternoon action turns to Joe Harrington, WRS athletic director. The WRS Golden Horde will face Proctor High School on the home field for the biggest soccer match of the school year.

WRS varsity teams compete in the Vermont Principals' Association Division IV. During the 2004-2005 school year, WRS teams competed for four state championships, winning the first ever soccer championship for a WRS team. During the 2005-2006 school years, the varsity basketball teams competed in both state championship games, and the girls won.

Clifford Funeral Home G. Joseph Clifford Gary H. Clifford James J. Clifford

A chamber festival worth celebrating The Lake Champlain Chamber Music Festival is only in its second year under artistic director and creator, violinist Soovin Kim but already it has the feeling of stability and permanency that is generally associated with many years of actual festival time. It is no surprise that the Festival is going so well, because Kim had a dream, and he pushed that dream equally with his own personal career, so that the result is a tremendous success.

The concert last week was good evidence of the long-term success of this festival. The East Coast Chamber Orchestra, an orchestra that made it's local debut in a program that featured Kim as soloist in a Mozart violin Concerto, provided the musicians who played works by David Ludwig, Dvorak, Rossini, and Brahms.

The Ludwig work, Aigaios, was written in 2006 as a commission given him to write a short piece on the book 'The Perfect Storm'. The work depicts (according to the composer) the water simultaneously crashing through the portholes of the ship, and goes on from there to a conclusion that is very quiet and peaceful. The composition enjoyed an incredibly well-thought-out performance by a quartet of players. The same quartet of players plus a string bass gave an exacting account of the Nocturne in B Major, Op. 40, filled with ethereal sounds that echoed through the space of the Elley-Long Music Center at St. Michael's College undisturbed before the audience broke the stillness with applause. The first part of the concert ended with the performance of Rossini's String Sonata No. 1 in G Major, a frothy piece that sparkled in the hands of the players.

The String Sextet No.2 in G. Major, Op. 36 of Johannes Brahms, occupied the second half of the concert. This is a daunting work for a number of reasons, not the least of which is sudden changes of tempo and style. The sextet received an admirable performance by the young instrumentalists. There was attention to every possible detail, and at the conclusion of the sextet, the audience gave the musicians a rousing series of bows, calling them back to the stage several times.

The evening concluded with a short Meet the Musicians session on stage and a dessert reception.

The Romans had a saying: Primus inter pares or, in its literal translation, someone who is first among equals. In the midst of a bevy of extraordinarily gifted musicians, my attention was caught by violinist Ayano Ninomiya. Her rapport with the Nocturne (she played first violin) was so exquisitely tuned that she seemed to float heavenward carrying at least this enchanted listener along with her.

The other player who captured my attention was cellist Denise Djokic, a dynamo of sound who performed her duties within the sextet by a deft rendering of the music of her part.

I don't know whether the general audience for music is truly aware of the bounteous musical gifts that we had been gifted with. We were accustomed to the high standards of the Vermont Mozart Festival, but now it is joined by Green Mountain Opera Festival, the Green Mountain Chamber Music Festival, and some other festivals, making Vermont in summer truly a place where the hills are alive with the sound of music fantastically well played.

Local grocers to meet Sept. 24-26 will mark the Rutland-based Vermont Grocers’ Association’s 76th anniversary. The organization will host a convention and exposition at the Champlain Valley Exposition in Essex Junction and Sheraton Burlington with the theme, “Spirit of ’76”.

The convention and expo is the state's most comprehensive trade show featuring the latest in products, services, and equipment.

The convention will feature a host of workshops, seminars, events, and entertainment for participants and attendees.

Seminars and workshops will include "Using Social Media to Promote your Store," by Nicole Ravlin of PMG, "New Lighting Information to Prepare for the Phase out of T-12's," "New Payment Card Security Requirements" and "DLC Alcohol and Tobacco Certification Training."
