By  JOHN  FLOWERS WEYBRIDGE  â€”  David  Liebowitz  is  only  11,  but  he’s  traveled  to  more  places  than  a  lot  of  people  will  see  in  their  lifetimes.  And  the  Weybridge  Elementary  School  sixth-­grader  has  the  uncanny  ability  to  remember  where  he’s  been  and  what  he’s  seen  â€”  even  in  the  pages  of  books  and  magazines. His  intelligence,  memory  and  love  of  geography  recently  paid  off  in  a  big  way.  Liebowitz  earned  his  place  as  Vermont’s  representative  at  the  27th  annual  National  Geographic  Bee  held  in  Washington,  D.C.,  May  11-­13.  And  while  he  didn’t  take  the  title,  he  answered  a  majority  of  the  brain-­crushing  queries  tossed  his  way  by  the  folks  at  National Â

Geographic. He  brought  home  some  souvenirs  from  a  great  family  trip,  along  with  some  memories  that  will  last  him  a  lifetime. “It  was  interesting  to  meet  so  many  people,â€?  said  David,  the  son  of  Ron  and  Jessica  Liebowitz.  â€œIt  was  really  fun.â€? Liebowitz  had  to  clear  two  hurdles  on  his  way  to  punching  his  ticket  for  the  nationals. It  began  with  the  annual  Weybridge  Elementary  Geography  bee  that  Liebowitz  â€”  referred  to  by  many  of  his  teachers  and  classmates  by  his  middle  name,  Heshie  â€”  had  won  for  three  years  in  a  row.  He  prevailed  over  other  contestants  in  grades  4  (See  Liebowitz,  Page  7)

Simons  received  help  from  the  Vermont  Center  for  Emerging  Tech-­ QRORJ\ÂśV 0LGGOHEXU\ RIÂżFH WR DQ-­ swer  what  she  called  the  â€œbig  pic-­ ture  questions.â€?  The  goal,  she  said,  was  to  expose  teens  to  issues  facing  society  by  having  them  meet  and  in-­ terview  people  directly  experiencing  the  effects  of  such  things  as  environ-­ mental  degradation  and  the  increas-­ ing  gap  between  rich  and  poor. Simons  said  Vermont  students  bring  a  unique  perspective  to  these  projects.  â€œIt’s  a  sense  of  place  and  a  sense  of  culture  that  we  have,â€?  she  said.  â€œThere’s  a  certain  something  that  you  start  with  that’s  different  from  anywhere  else.â€?  A  LIFE  ON  THE  ROAD The  lifestyle  of  roving  docu-­ mentary  makers  is  largely  no-­frills.  Groups  sleep  when  and  where  they  can  and  eat  meals  at  irregular  hours.  Unlike  most  teenagers,  Simons  said  the  groups  have  grit  and  a  comfort  with  the  unknown.  â€œIt’s  electric,  crazy  and  so  fun,â€?  she  said.  â€œThey’re  open  to  anything.  :HÂśOO VOHHS RQ Ă€RRUV DQG WKH\ÂśUH ÂżQH ZLWK WKDW RU HDW GLQQHU DW at  night.  There’s  no  stuck-­ness  about  them.â€? For  the  past  few  summers,  groups  have  traveled  in  one  or  two  rented  minivans  loaded  with  equipment,  clothes  and  sleeping  bags.  The  Ver-­ mont  Folklife  Center  in  Middlebury  supplies  the  group  with  high-­quality  voice  recorders  while  students  and  staff  bring  an  assortment  of  digi-­ tal  cameras  for  shooting  video  and  stills.  Students  join  the  program  with  a  range  of  experiences  in  short  documentary  production.  Some  join  as  experienced  amateurs,  others  with  less  experience.  They  share  all  the  equipment  as  well  as  the  laptop  computers  with  editing  software. When  it  comes  time  to  edit,  the  group  spends  hours  working  on  their  respective  projects  in  libraries  or  coffee  shops. Â

“It’s  so  organic  and  based  on  what’s  needed,â€?  Simons  said.  The  group  also  shares  their  prog-­ ress  with  family  members  and  other  followers  through  online  tools  like  the  multimedia  blogging  platforms  Tumblr  and  Cowbird.  Simons  said  traveling  and  work-­ ing  in  a  small  group  keeps  the  team  agile  and  lets  them  follow  up  on  op-­ portunities  as  they  arise.  The  size  of  the  group  also  creates  an  intimate  dynamic.  After  leaving  Bristol,  trav-­ eling  to  their  destination  and  return-­ ing,  Simons  says  the  team  is  more  like  a  family.  The  short  documenta-­ ries  produced  by  the  students  have  been  screened  at  the  Green  Moun-­ tain  Film  Festival.  ,Q LWV ÂżUVW WZR \HDUV &RQYHUVD-­ tions  from  the  Open  Road  has  com-­ SOHWHG IRXU WULSV ,Q VWXGHQWV traveled  to  the  coast  of  Maine  to  investigate  changes  in  the  local  ¿VKLQJ HFRQRP\ DQG WR $SSDODFKLD to  take  a  look  at  the  lasting  legacy  RI WKH FRDO LQGXVWU\ ,Q WKH\ went  to  southern  Utah  to  get  a  look  STUDENTS  FROM  CONVERSATIONS  from  the  Open  Road  conduct  interviews  and  shoot  videos  while  on  at  how  the  Federal  Bureau  of  Land  Management  allows  the  public  to  their  journeys  around  the  country  to  locations  including  Utah,  Detroit  and  the  coast  of  Maine.  The  short  documentaries  are  screened  at  the  Green  Mountain  Film  Festival.  use  land  for  multiple  purposes  and  to  Detroit  to  examine  issues  of  race  Through  her  work  with  Conversa-­ and  class  in  a  city  still  struggling  ognize  that  the  structures  we’ve  cre-­ to  clean  up  Lake  Champlain  and  en-­ ated  aren’t  inevitable,  we  still  have  ergy  and  water  use  in  Las  Vegas.  tions  from  the  Open  Road  Simons  with  economic  hard  times.  Simons  said  she  started  the  com-­ has  accidentally  found  herself  in  the  )URP DOO WKHVH ÂżUVW FURVV FRXQ-­ choices  and  we’re  likely  going  to  try  experiences,  Simons  and  her  have  to  make  new  ones  in  the  fu-­ pany  with  the  intention  of  chang-­ world  of  journalism,  which  she  says  ing  education.  While  she  says  she’s  she  enjoys.  But  for  now,  she  said  she  VWXGHQWV LGHQWLÂżHG VRPH FRPPRQ ture.â€? made  progress  toward  that  goal,  she  enjoys  exposing  teens  to  the  issues  themes  uniting  these  diverse  top-­ AROUND  THE  BEND Simons  has  plenty  of  ideas  for  also  admits  she  still  has  a  ways  to  that  matter.  ics. “I  feel  like  that’s  the  best  way  to  â€œIt’s  all  grappling  with  the  archi-­ trips  in  the  future  including  im-­ go.  In  the  future,  she  hopes  to  design  tecture  of  our  society,â€?  she  said.  â€œIt’s  migration  on  the  Arizona-­Mexico  custom  experiences  for  classrooms  learn,â€?  she  said.  â€œWhen  you  hear  looking  at  how  we  get  our  energy,  border  and  migrant  farm  labor  in  and  to  lead  trips  year-­round  through-­ the  nuances  and  complexities  from  people  on  the  front  lines.â€? shelter,  food  and  how  we  relate  to  Vermont  and  Florida,  state  efforts  out  the  school  year. each  other.â€?

Editorial 2015  session  wasn’t  pretty,  but  it  tackled  tough  issues It  wasn’t  pretty,  but  at  the  end  of  the  day,  this  Legislature  and  the  Shum-­ lin  administration  passed  a  couple  major  pieces  of  legislation,  and  over-­ FDPH VHYHUDO VLJQLÂżFDQW EXGJHW KXUGOHV LQ FUDIWLQJ D UHDVRQDEOH EXGJHW LQ tough  times. The  major  legislation  focused  on  cleaning  up  the  state’s  waterways  (par-­ ticularly  Lake  Champlain)  and  passing  a  major  reform  of  school  gover-­ nance  and  cost  containment.  Both  pieces  of  legislation  were  introduced  early  in  the  session,  were  thoroughly  discussed  and  rehashed  over  and  over,  before  being  passed  by  large  majorities. The  House  took  the  lead  on  the  $7.5  million  landmark  water  quality  bill,  H.35,  that  is  funded  in  part  by  a  0.2  percent  surcharge  on  the  state’s  prop-­ erty  transfer  tax.  The  bill  spends  $2.6  million  next  year  to  support  eight  new  positions  at  the  Agency  of  Agriculture,  and  13  new  positions  at  the  Department  of  Environmental  Conservation  for  education  and  outreach,  as  well  as  enforcement  of  water  quality  regulations.  Down  the  road,  the  bill  expands  the  state’s  authority  to  regulate  stormwater  runoff  from  farms,  roads,  cities  and  wastewater  treatment  plans.  On  education  reform,  the  Legislature  responded  to  taxpayers’  admoni-­ tions  to  slow  down  the  rate  of  spending.  The  result  was  H.361,  the  educa-­ tion  governance  reform  bill,  which  encourages  the  state’s  277  school  dis-­ tricts  to  merge  into  larger,  900-­pupil  Pre-­K-­12  education  districts.  Those  districts,  supporters  say,  are  designed  to  produce  economies  of  scale  and  improve  educational  opportunities  for  students.  A  variation  on  the  2  per-­ cent  statewide  spending  cap  was  added  back  into  the  bill  on  Friday  before  ¿QDO SDVVDJH DOORZLQJ WKH /HJLVODWXUH WR FODLP WKDW WKH PHDVXUH ZLOO VDYH $12  million  a  year  in  spending  during  2017-­18.  2WKHU VLJQLÂżFDQW ELOOV LQFOXGHG PHDVXUHV WKDW ZRXOG SURWHFW FKLOGUHQ from  domestic  abuse;Íž  institute  same-­day  voter  registration  on  election  day;Íž  eliminate  the  philosophical  exemption  for  childhood  vaccinations;Íž  impose  minor  restriction  on  gun  ownership  based  on  a  person’s  criminal  record  and  mental  health  history;Íž  set  into  motion  measures  to  reduce  fossil  fuel  consumption,  via  H.40,  by  increasing  renewable  energy  targets  for  the  state.  While  the  bill  also  introduced  some  questionable  setback  mini-­ mums  toward  the  end  of  the  session,  in  the  end,  more  control  was  ceded  to  towns  than  was  previously  allowed,  and  a  future  solar  citing  taskforce  was  put  into  place  to  hopefully  establish  sustainable  siting  practices  in  the  upcoming  year. %XW QRWKLQJ FDPH HDV\ LQ ZKDW PDQ\ DUH VD\LQJ ZDV D YHU\ GLIÂżFXOW session.  It  started  with  a  close  gubernatorial  election  last  November  as  Gov.  Peter  Shumlin  narrowly  edged  Republican  Scott  Milne,  who  refused  to  concede.  and  forced  the  Legislature  to  decide  the  election.  While  the  Leg-­ islature  voted  solidly  for  Shumlin,  the  ordeal  weakened  his  authority  and  his  ability  to  successfully  promote  his  agenda.  That  was  most  clearly  seen  in  the  governor’s  health  care  reform  initia-­ tive.  Shortly  after  the  election,  he  surprised  many  in  the  state  when  he  pulled  his  single-­payer  proposal  off  the  table.  He  proposed,  instead,  an  aggressive  effort  to  increase  Medicaid  reimbursement  rates  by  implement-­ ing  a  tax  on  payroll  that  would  have  raised  $90  million  and  drawn  down  another  $100  million  from  the  federal  government.  It  was  too  much  for  the  Legislature,  however,  which  eventually  whittled  it  down  to  $3.2  million  on  Saturday  in  an  deal  made  to  pass  the  budget.  Without  a  doubt,  it  was  the  administration’s  biggest  failure  of  the  session. The  driving  factor  of  the  session,  however,  was  the  $113  budget  gap.  Lawmakers  spent  the  session  trying  to  close  that  gap,  and  did  so  with  $53  million  in  reductions  to  budgeted  expenses,  and  raising  about  $30  million  â€”  more  than  half  of  which  will  be  paid  by  wealthier  Vermonters.  Criticize  the  process  if  you  want,  but  this  Legislature  and  the  governor  WDFNOHG VRPH YHU\ WRXJK LVVXHV WKLV VHVVLRQ DQG LQ IRXU PRQWKV WLPH ÂżQ-­ ished  with  a  fairly  impressive  scorecard.

in  a  district  and  to  attend  a  school  that  values  active  participation  in  civic  life.  In  fact,  the  Addison  Northeast  Supervisory  Union  school  boards  value  civic  engage-­ ment  so  much  that  it  was  included  as  one  of  14  goals  laid  out  in  the  district  ENDS  Policy  published  in  2011.  This  policy  states,  â€œStudents  (will)  view  themselves  as  valuable,  contributing  citizens,  participating  actively  in  the  community.â€?

PETS IN NEED HOMEWARD BOUND

Addison County’s Humane Society I’m  Harper!  I  came  to  Homeward  Bound  near  the  end  of  April  after  being  brought  in  as  a  stray.  I’m  a  very  friendly  girl  and  just  love  to  talk.  Usually  it’s  because  I  want  attention  or  am  hungry!  When  I  do  want  attention,  I  will  roll  over  on  my  back  and  purr,  it’s  just  the  cutest!  I  get  along  with  other  cats  and  just  an  overall  great  girl!  Come  meet  me  today!

I’m  Howie!  I’m  a  super  cute  2  year  old  who’s  full  of  love!  I  came  to  Homeward  Bound  after  being  brought  in  as  a  stray.  I’m  a  real  charmer  and  am  also  very  affectionate.  When  the  staff  comes  to  clean  my  kennel  in  the  morning,  I  like  to  stretch  my  front  feet  onto  their  shoulders  and  then  jump  up  to  snuggle  with  them!  I’m  also  playful,  I  love  chasing  the  mice  and  feathers  on  wand  toys! Â

Kaia  is  a  loving,  spunky  girl.  She  was  brought  to  Homeward  Bound  in  March  after  being  found  as  a  stray. She  loves  meeting  new  people  and  will  greet  everyone  with  a  full  body  wiggle!  She’s  a  real  people  pleaser  and  enjoys  being  in  the  company  of  people.  Kaia  also  loves  toys;  ropes,  stuffed  animals,  balls  -­  she  loves  them  all!  Whether  someone  is  playing  with  her  or  she’s  by  herself,  she  always  has  fun  chasing  them.

Meet  Mac!  Mac  is  a  handsome,  13  year  old  who  came  to  Homeward  Bound  after  being  surrendered  by  his  owner. While  Mac  can  be  shy,  he’s  making  great  progress  in  becoming  more  social.  He  happily  comes  out  in  the  morning  for  his  breakfast  and  will  even  allow  a  chin  scratch!  Mac  does  well  with  cats,  but  has  had  no  experience  with  dogs  or  children.  He’d  do  best  in  a  quiet  home  with  not  a  lot  going  on.

Meet  Mickey!  He’s  a  big,  lovable  13  year  old  who  recently  came  to  Homeward  Bound  after  surrendered  by  his  owner. Mickey  is  very  affectionate.  He  can  be  VK\ DW ÂżUVW EXW LW GRHVQÂśW WDNH PXFK IRU him  to  warm  up  to  you.  He  loves  being  scratched  under  his  chin  and  being  pet.  Mickey  has  no  experience  with  dogs  or  children  but  would  probably  do  best  in  a  relaxed  home,  with  not  a  lot  going  on.

I’m  Weezy,  a  beautiful  12  year  old  that  came  to  Homeward  Bound  after  being  surrendered  by  my  owner. My  previous  owner  said  that  I  am  mellow  lap  cat  who  has  a  lot  to  say  and  that  I  get  along  well  with  other  cats,  dogs  and  children  of  all  ages!  ,ÂśP DQ RYHUDOO JUHDW JLUO UHDG\ WR ÂżQG D IRUHYHU home.  Not  only  am  I  affectionate,  but  would  be  D JUHDW ÂżW IRU DQ\ IDPLO\

Cats  need  regular  check-­ups,  too (MS)  â€”  Some  people  prefer  cats,  while  others’  loyalty  lies  with  dogs.  Dogs  and  cats  have  different  person-­ alities,  which  is  what  draws  people  to  them  for  one  reason  or  another.  Though  different,  cats  and  dogs  alike  need  to  visit  the  veterinarian  for  routine  checkups.  Still,  it  seems  dogs  head  to  the  vet  more  frequently  than  cats. Organizations  like  the  American  Association  of  Feline  Practitioners  and  others  have  uncovered  the  disparity  in  care  among  dogs  and  cats.  Cats  are  less  likely  to  receive  veterinary  healthcare  than  dogs,  as  research  shows  that  cats  make  up  about  one-­quarter  of  patients  at  small  animal  veterinary  clinics.  Cats  have  long  been  second  to  dogs  as  the  most  popular  pet.  But  cats  may  be  edging  out  dogs  as  the  preferred  pet,  particularly  because  they  seem  to  need  less  attention  and  maintenance.  But  these  same  quali-­ ties  that  make  them  attractive  pets  could  be  putting  their  health  at  risk.  Cats  that  tend  to  fend  for  themselves  act  aloof  and  may  not  give  their  owners  any  indication  that  they  are  sick.  As  a  result,  pet  owners  can  become  complacent  about  cat  care,  simply  because  they  don’t  spend  as  much  time  with  cats  as  they  may  with  a  dog. Dr.  Katy  Allen,  a  veterinarian  and  owner  of  Canterbury  Tails  Veterinary  Services,  has  said  dogs  are  an  â€œin-­your-­faceâ€?  kind  of  pet.  People  tend  to  interact  more  with  their  dogs  by  taking  them  for  walks  and  playing  with  them.  So  it’s  more  noticeable  when  something  is  not  right  with  a  dog.  Cats,  however,  are  more  stoic.  When  they  don’t  feel  well,  cats  will  run  away  and  hide. Changing  vaccine  sched-­ ules  for  many  animals  may  also  affect  how  often  cats  visit  the  vet.  Immunizations  have  changed  so  that  some  shots  can  be  offered  every  two  or  three  years  instead  of  annually. Â

Therefore,  pet  owners  may  not  see  the  need  to  visit  the  vet  unless  the  animal  is  due  for  a  shot.  This  can  put  a  cat  at  risk  because  it  is  usually  during  routine  exams  when  vets  uncover  something  that  the  pet  owner  may  not  have  noticed  on  his  or  her  own. The  American  Animal  Hospital  Association  urges  cat  owners  to  remember  that  every  year  that  passes  for  a  cat  is  equivalent  to  several  years  for  a  person,  making  it  imper-­ ative  for  cats  to  receive  wellness  examinations,  including  laboratory  testing,  once  a  year.  Healthy  senior  cats  should  be  exam-­ ined  once  every  six  months,  as  illnesses  and  changes  in  an  older  cat’s  health  can  progress  quickly. What  to  expect  at  a  cat’s  wellness  exam A  veterinar-­ ian  will  go  over  a  number  of  things  at  an  annual  wellness  visit.  Here  is  a  list  of  some  things  to  expect: ‡ GLVFXVVLRQ RI the  animal’s  medi-­ cal  history ‡ WHVWLQJ RI WKH cat’s  stool ‡ H[DPLQDWLRQ RI the  cat’s  nose  and  nasal  passages  for  signs  of  infection ‡ H[DPLQDWLRQ RI WKH gums,  teeth  and  tongue ‡ H[DPLQDWLRQ RI WKH ears  to  check  for  mites  or  any  discharge ‡ H[DPLQDWLRQ RI the  eyes

Hypoallergenic  pets  may  be  a  myth (MS)  â€”  Allergy  sufferers  are  often  advised  to  steer  clear  of  pets,  as  brushing  up  to  a  cat  or  dog  can  trig-­ ger  an  allergy  attack  or  a  rash.  Those  with  pet  allergies  may  be  willing  to  spend  any  amount  of  money  to  get  a  pet  that  is  dubbed  â€œhypoallergenic.â€?  Although  there  are  some  breeds  of  dogs  and  cats  that  are  less  likely  to  trigger  an  allergic  attack,  some  research  indicates  that  a  hypoaller-­ genic  pet  is  a  myth. According  to  the  Asthma  and  Allergy  Foundation  of  America,  one  out  of  every  four  people  struggles  with  allergies  and  asthma  on  a  regu-­ lar  basis,  and  15  to  30  percent  of  these  cases  are  dog-­  or  cat-­related.  Those  with  allergies  may  think  a  hypoal-­ lergenic  pet  will  be  the  answer  to  their  watery  eyes  and  sneezes.  But  a  study  published  in  the  American  Journal  of  Rhinology  &  Allergy  raises  issues  about  hypoallergenic  dogs.  People  who  spend  hundreds,  if  not  thousands,  of  dollars  on  a  dog  purported  to  be  hypoallergenic  may  just  be  wasting  their  money.  Researchers  at  Henry  Ford  Hospital  in  Detroit  took  dust  samples  from  173  dog-­owning  households,  where  60  breeds  were  represented,  including  11  breeds  that  are  consid-­ ered  to  be  hypoallergenic.  What  they  discovered  was  that  homes  with  allegedly  hypoallergenic  pets  contained  just  as  much  of  the  prime  dog  allergen,  known  as  Can  f  1,  as  those  of  the  other  breeds.  According  to  senior  author  and  epidemiologist  Christine  Cole  Johnson,  â€œThere  is  simply  no  environmental  evidence  that  any  particular  dog  breed  produces  more  or  less  allergen  in  the  home  than  another  one.â€? That  doesn’t  mean  that  all  dogs  produce  the  same  amount  of  aller-­ gen  as  others.  In  fact,  genetics  and  environmental  factors,  including  how  often  a  dog  and  a  home  is  cleaned,  can  contribute  to  the  dander  and  allergens  produced  by  a  particu-­ lar  dog.  Dogs  within  the  same  breed  may  vary  as  to  how  much  Can  f  1  one  dog  creates  compared  to  another.  In  essence,  one  Labrador  may  induce  an  allergic  reaction,  while  the  other  doesn’t  even  cause  a  person  to  sneeze. The  hypoallergenic  label  is  often  given  to  dog  breeds  that  have  short  fur  or  do  not  shed  much.  But  allergens  are  not  attached  to  the  fur.  They  are  actually  a  secretion  from  the  skin  that  produces  an  allergic  reac-­ tion  from  dogs  and  the  saliva  of  cats.  Unless  a  geneticist  is  able  to  create  a  cat  without  allergens  in  saliva  or  a  dog  that  does  not  secrete  allergens  from  the  skin,  no  pet  will  be  hypoallergenic. That  isn’t  to  say  choosing  a Â

May  is  mental  health  awareness  month MIDDLEBURY  â€”  The  Counsel-­ ing  Service  of  Addison  County  says  this  year’s  theme  for  May,  Mental  Health  Month,  calls  attention  to  the  importance  of  addressing  mental  health  symptoms  early,  identifying  potential  underlying  illnesses,  and  planning  an  appropriate  course  of  ac-­ tion  on  a  path  toward  overall  health. When  people  think  about  cancer,  heart  disease  or  diabetes,  they  don’t  wait  years  to  treat  them.  They  start  before  Stage  4  â€”  they  begin  with  prevention.  Just  as  people’s  lives  are  impacted  in  deep  and  serious  ways  when  they  ignore  physical  health  is-­ sues,  they  are  affected  when  they  ig-­ nore  symptoms  of  mental  illness. 5RXJKO\ RQH LQ ÂżYH SHRSOH LV VWUXJ-­ gling  with  a  mental  health  condition Â
