Cows judged at annual 4-H contest

By Lou Varricchio

newmarketpress@denpubs.com BRIDPORT — Vermont 4-H Club members turned out in force at the annual Vermont 4-H Dairy Judging Contest held at the Blue Spruce Farm in Bridport June 23.

Among the cows judged were holsteins and the less common cattle breed known as Ayrshire.

The Ayrshire originated from Ayrshire in Scotland.

The average mature Ayrshire cow weighs between 990–1,300 pounds making it among the largest dairy breeds.

According to Lisa Halvorsen of the University of Vermont, Ayrshires have distinguished red markings. But the markings can range from orange to a dark-chocolate brown. Some individuals have colored legs, others not.

Halvorsen noted that the breed is recognized by dairy producers for its low somatic cell counts, its supreme ability to digest grass and convert into milk with excellent efficiently. The breed’s is also climate hardy over many zones and ideal for changing climates globally.

Ayrshires were lined up at the Blue Spruce Farm for judging during the 4H event making it the largest gathering of the breed, in one place at one time, in Vermont.

Businesses raising funds for Adam Myers Memorial

By Lou Varricchio

newmarketpress@denpubs.com

Adam Myers, the Middlebury firefighter who died last year, will be remembered July 21 at two events in Middlebury. Proceeds generated will be contributed to the Middlebury Fire Department.

MIDDLEBURY — For those Addison County residents who knew him or worked along side him, Middlebury firefighter Adam Myers was a hard worker, caring friend, and family man.

Myers’ untimely death last year is still sending reverberations through the community.

The dedicated firefighter—who believed deeply in community service—died in a car accident July 20, 2011. He left behind a wife and two sons, and many friends he touched in the area. Now, friends and businesses in the Middlebury area are helping keep Myers’ memory and spirit of service alive through a special fundraising event on July 21.

Dubbed the Adam Myers Memorial Fundraiser, several local businesses have teamed up to raise money for the Middlebury Fire Department.

The upcoming effort promises to be the first of what is hoped to be an annual activity, which not only remembers the volunteer and community member, but also honors all the men and women who serve in fighting fires and saving lives around Middlebury.

“Adam was in integral part of our technical rescue team,” according to Ryan Emilo, a member of the Middlebury Fire Department. “He was a huge champion of everything we do here at the department. His hard work, dedication and enthusiasm can never be replaced and it will never be forgotten.”

For their first time supporting the memorial effort, a genuine recognition of loss, as well as spirit of community, motivates the involvement of sponsors.

Vermont detectives solve unsolved 1986 murder Sarah Hunter disappeared in Manchester

By Lou Varricchio

newmarketpress@denpubs.com MANCHESTER — Vermont State Police detectives announced that they have closed the book on an unsolved murder mystery dating back to 1986. The victim, Sarah Hunter, 36, of Manchester, disappeared on the evening of Sept. 19, 1986 and was never seen since.

The stunning announcement was made July 2 by VSP Lt. Tim Oliver, Vermont State Police, C Troop Bureau of Criminal Investigation commander.

Oliver said an arrest warrant was issued June 30 for David Allan Morrison, 52, for murder in the first degree of Hunter.

In 1986, Hunter ’s car was found empty, parked at a gas station on Route 7A in Manchester Center.

“At the time of her disappearance Sarah was employed as a golf pro at the Manchester Country Club,” Oliver reported in the VSP news announcement. “Due to the suspi-

Sarah Hunter cious circumstances, the Manchester Police Department and the Vermont State Police

immediately began an investigation into Sarah's disappearance. Despite an extensive search, Sarah’s body wasn’t located until Nov. 27, 1986, in a wooded area adjacent to a corn field in Pawlet.”

Within days of Hunter ’s disappearance, VSP detectives determined that Hunter was the likely victim of a homicide.

At the time if Hunter ’s disappearance, Morrison had been questioned twice; he had been an employee at a gasoline station near to where Hunter ’s abandoned vehicle was found. “There was insufficient evidence at the time for arrest him for Sarah’s murder,” according to Oliver.

VSP officials said that Morrison left Vermont two years after Hunter ’s disappearance. In late 1986, the year of Hunter ’s murder, Morrison was arrested in California for kidnapping, sexual assault, and attempted murder of a young woman in the city of Chula Vista. Morrison remains in California to this day, serving a 20 year to life sentence at the Corcoran State Penitentiary.

“In the 25 years since her tragic death, detectives with the Vermont State Police continued to investigate Sarah’s murder, looking for additional evidence and information;

including a 1988 search of Morrison’s abandoned 1968 Chevy Impala,” according to a VSP news report. “Evidence gathered led investigators to identify Morrison as a primary suspect, however the evidence was insufficient to arrest Morrison for Sarah’s murder.”

In touch with California authorities, Vermont State Police detectives had their suspicions about Morrison’s link to Sarah Hunter ’s death.

“Based on the DNA results and evidence collected through the investigation, detectives applied for and were granted an arrest warrant for David Allan Morrison for Murder in the First Degree in the 1986 death of Sarah Hunter,” according to a VSP news release. “Extradition arrangements will be coordinated through the Bennington County State’s Attorney’s office with the State of California.”

“In all cold case homicide investigations, it is important to help families who have suffered the tragic loss of a loved one, to be able to help bring closure to their loss,” said Oliver. “Detectives with the Vermont State Police will never rest in solving the terrible crime of homicide, no matter how many years it takes.”

Records broken at Vermont Sun Triathlon SALISBURY — The season opener for the Vermont Sun Triathlon series, the Vermont Sun Triathlon, saw the top five men all crack a 1:02:00 finish time for the first time since 1995.

Gered Dunne of White River Junction passed Gary Snow of Shelburne in the last half mile of the run to win the 600-yard swim, 14-mile bike, 3.1-mile run race in 59:36.

Snow was seconds behind Dunne at 59:51.

Sixteen-year-old Teresa Groton of Charlestown, N,H., cruised to a more comfortable win on the women’s side, in 1:10:07. Runner-up,

Dot Martin of Montpelier, at more than three times Groton’s age (52), finished in 1:12:15.

Sunday’s weather conditions at beautiful Branbury State Park on Lake Dunmore couldn’t have been better with light winds and low humidity, and temperatures in the low to upper 70s. The lake was calm for swimming. With very light autotraffic, bikers and runners had an easy time sharing the road which was monitored by sheriff officers.

Bret Nichols, 29, of Brookline, Mass., missed breaking the course record by one second last year when he won

in 59:07. On Sunday he had to settle for third in 1:00:28.

Peter Dodds, 43, formerly from Australia and now living in Burlington was fourth in 1:01:31, with Saxtons River ’s John Dunbar fifth in 1:01:52. Nichols had the fastest swim of the day in 6:36, while Dunne recorded the best bike (33:16) and run (16:29) times.

Groton won the women’s race on the strength of her swim and run, both being the fastest for the women.

Her swim was 1:30 better than any other top five females, and her run was 1:22 faster. Sarah Pribram of Shelburne placed 3rd overall

in 1:12:15.

The sprint distance triathlon has been held over 50 times with about ten thousand finishes.

The one-hour time barrier has been broken just 11 times. Race producer and founder, Steve Hare did it once in 1995.

He said breaking an hour takes good conditions and close competition among the top five athletes.

Hare, 55, did not race Sunday as he is still recovering from being hit by a car riding his bike on the triathlon course in late March of this year. “I received a shattered elbow and broken hip. After

three months and three surgeries my swim and bike are pretty close to normal, but I still can’t really run and that’s why I’ll enjoy putting on the races and probably not compete till next year.”

David Payne is the new race director after five seasons of being the assistant director. Many other Vermont Sun Fitness Center staffers work the event.

The best local finish was turned in by Vergennes’ Cory Coffey who won the men’s 35-39 age group while placing seventh overall in 1:03:48.

third. I had my best time ever today and it was only good for seventh. These guys upfront went really fast,” Coffey said.

Chas Lyons of Middlebury was eighth overall and second to Coffey in the 35-39 group with a time of 1:06:34.

Lyons used his bike and run speed to overcome being 41st after the swim. He plans to do the Lake Placid Ironman this summer.

Jeff Schumann of Salisbury won the 55-59 group in 1:08:01 on the strength of his seventh best swim (7:39), and twelfth best bike (36:00).

Sun boxes to sprout at Vermont state park

By Lou Varricchio

newmarketpress@denpubs.com LUDLOW — This August, visitors to Camp Plymouth State Park in Ludlow are in for a treat. A display of unusual “sun boxes” will sprout in various areas of the park. The unusual boxes, which will combine art and science, will appear at Camp Plymouth Aug 2-5.

Vermont sound artist Craig Calorusso is the man behind the sun boxes.

Calorusso was invited to bring his latest musical creation to five state parks for five weekends during the summer months.

“It's comprised of twenty speakers spread over a large, open lawn operating independently, each powered by the sun via solar panels,” according to Rochelle Skinner, sales and service manager of the Vermont Department of Forests, Parks & Recre-

ation. “Inside each sun box is a P.C. mother board that has a recorded musical programmed to play continuously in a loop. Because the loops are different in length, once the piece begins they continually overlap and the piece slowly evolves over time.”

Skinner said the idea is to encourage park visitors to walk around the solar-powered speaker boxes.

“Certain speakers will be closer and, therefore, louder, so the piece will sound different to different people in different positions throughout the array,” Skinner said. “Allowing the audience to move around will create a unique experience for everyone.

In addition, as people wander through the speakers, they alter the composition. Given the option, two people will take different paths through the array and hear the composition differently. Sun boxes is not just one composition, but, many.”

A test of Craig Calorusso’s sun boxes at Camp Plymouth in Ludlow last year. The boxes return Aug. 2-5.

Guest Commentary

Supreme Court decision postpones day of reckoning Last week’s Supreme Court decision only postpones the day of reckoning for Gov. Peter Shumlin’s (D) “TitanicCare” health care law. Federal dollars can now temporarily plug the huge holes the governor ’s plan will generate in Vermont’s budget.

Let’s be frank: TitanicCare is doomed to sink and take all of us with it. It’s just going to sink a teeny bit slower with this subsidy and nobody, not even Gov. Shumlin, believes the subsidy will last forever.

The federal government’s long term track record in keeping its funding promises is dismal indeed—look at Medicaid and Special Education, for example.

Vermonters better start asking the governor and his allies in the legislature to explain before this upcoming election how they’re going to rescue us passengers.

Thankfully, all is not lost when TitanicCare sinks.

We Vermonters can start asking our political candidates and the news media to look much more closely at much better options.

Why can’t we choose from lots of different policies offered by many different insurance companies from other states?

A “single payer” one-size-fits-all is not a “choice”. And why are we forced to purchase insurance policies with mandated coverage for every service and product that health care lobbyists can wangle into our laws?

Why can’t we choose the coverage we think suits us instead of what government tells us we need?

Why can’t we be creative with high deductible plans and employer-subsidized health savings accounts that give consumers incentives to make cost-conscious decisions?

Why can’t we permit lower premiums and/or premium rebates for healthy lifestyles, simplify common administrative procedures, and let coverage follow people regardless of where they work?

Let’s reform our medical malpractice laws, too, so our doctors don’t order so many tests out of fear of being sued. There are so many common sense changes we can make that don’t

cost anything at all!

If Gov. Shumlin is honest, he’ll admit his grandiose TitanicCare plan cannot sail very far for very long.

As Vermont’s governor, I will chart a common sense course toward health care reform that everyone can follow; that controls cost, protects consumers, gets government out of the health care management business, and that lets our free enterprise system provide the kind of incredibly inventive and productive health care solutions it constantly creates in transportation, telecommunication and, yes, medicine.

If you don’t like the Supreme Court decision or the direction of health care in Vermont, your recourse now is in November.

The Supreme Court’s decision supremely reinforces the fact that elections count.

ADDISON — An accident involving an auto driver passing a slow-moving farm tractor occurred on Route 22A in Addison June 30 at 5:05 p.m.

Driver Nathan Barcomb, 32, Vergennes, was traveling south and attempted to pass a farm tractor operated by Jonathan Audey, 42, of Addison.

Barcomb was traveling south and started to turn into a driveway on the east side of the highway when the accident occurred.

Barcomb’s vehicle collided with the tractor ’s payload bucket resulting in major damage to the entire right side.

Shelly Dubois, 32, of Vergennes, a passenger in Barcomb’s car sustained lacerations from broken glass and was transported to Porter Hospital.

From the Editor

Just walk away R

on, a childhood friend of mine who lives in Palm Springs nowadays, telephoned me a few weeks ago; he relayed some shocking health news.

Ron and I have been lucky to keep in touch over the years. I have followed his career in the entertainment world; he has had an amazing resilience. When we parted company in suburban Philadelphia during the 1980s, Ron moved to New York City, then on to Los Angeles—and now the California desert, east of L.A. After a nasty divorce in 1992, Ron put his personal troubles behind him and jump started his life.

In short order, along came a fabulous, high-paying job in Tinsel Town (with all the accompanying stresses), Melody—an attractive, fun-loving wife (a budding screen actress, with all the accompanying stresses)— and a luxurious new home overlooking a desert canyon (with a whopping mortgage and all the accompanying stresses).

Then, about one-and-half-years after marrying, Ron’s first of an ever expanding brood of super-sharp kids came along— three good kids with above-average skepticism and intelligence; just like their old man.

Ron has everything you could ask for in an American life: love, money, talent, a dash of minor fame, and an exciting career and lifestyle. Except for one thing: a tiny shadow appeared in the corner of Ron’s colorful picture frame one day—the shadow of heart disease.

Ron, who’s 53, told me that he had suffered a heart attack while relaxing by his pool, at home, on Memorial Day. Ron’s heart attack took everyone by surprise.

According to Ron, “Although I should, by any normal analysis of events, be dead, I think my own ridiculous hypochondria saved my life inasmuch as I started popping aspirin as soon as I felt odd sensations.”

Ron came through his first big health crisis amazingly well; he credits it to aspirin.

“I’m very lucky, very healthy, much better off cardiac-blood-flow-wise than I was before,” he said. “I should be just fine but I

suddenly felt the need to call you to urge you to start taking a low-dose aspirin once a day, if you're not already doing so. It could save your life.”

Ron also mentioned that he had changed his diet under a doctor ’s supervision.

“No meat, no fat stuff. I am becoming one of those health nuts I used to hate,” he said. “A little over a month now and I feel much better.”

Ron said he feels like he’s never felt before. As crazy as it sounds, at least for a person who has just suffered a heart attack, he’s feeling in the pink.

“The writing was on the wall for me.

Melody and I have to get out of this place, our jobs, our excessive lifestyle. Vermont’s starting to sound like the perfect escape,” he said.

Well, I had to laugh at that one.

“Yeah,” I said, “and one person’s escape can easily be another person’s prison. Ron, a house with a canyon view, a swimming pole, a hot tub? It all sounds perfect to me!”

“It ain’t, buddy boy,” he replied.

Ron told me that, since the heart attack, he was rethinking everything. In order to survive, he said, it would all have to change—and soon.

In the weeks following our transcontinental phone chat, I have been thinking about the thin thread that holds all of us to this world. One snip of the thread and it’s over—forever.

One thing about our phone call stands out. Ron said, “Just walk away from anyone or anything that saps your joy. Life is too short to put up with mirages in the desert.”

Was life really so bleak for Ron? Was it a desert filled with mirages, illusions? If it was, then surely there must be a calming oasis, somewhere, in the middle of the bleakness? And maybe that’s where we all find our inner, life-renewing drink of cool water. But that’s for Ron—and the rest of us—to sort out.

In the meantime, in between time, here’s to your health, Ron. “Cento anni,” as the Italians say.

It beats working L

ast week I wrote to you a joke I came up with while shopping at the local grocery mart. I promised this week’s column would be the result of my working the joke into a piece I can use in my show. Here’s what I came up with: Farmer Eldred Towle had a radio station.

Short wave A.M. 910. He ran it Sundays 10 to 2, during haying season, to keep fellow farmers with transistors taped to their fenders minds off being guilty for not going to church with their wives … n’ kids … n’ in-laws, and others whom Eldred dubbed curious for choosing to find comfort believing a women became pregnant without ever having had sex.

Eldred’s short wave distraction mostly worked, not countin’ Gib Campbell the 4th, whose-not-goin’-to-church guilt rose to such a fever that he befriended two door- to-door going Mormon girls to such a degree that he felt zero need to celebrate his birthday or Christmas ever again.

At noon Eldred Towle would be gentle when he’d settle the arm of his granddad’s Victrolla phonograph onto his “Country’s Greatest Hits” LP record, head outdoors, mount his tractor, cut 3 rings around the pasture, come back, pick up the Victrola’s arm, which’d about run its course, then over the short waves vocally proclaim loyalty to his station’s sole underwriter, HUMPTY DUMPTY DAY CARE “We watch the cracked ones half price,” Then he’d flip the record 180 degrees, re-settle the arm, run 3 more rings around the pasture, return, and repeat.

One late spring a clever, horse loving trusta-fundian bartered Eldred a 3-night stay at her downtown New York City loft apartment for a summer’s supply of hay. Eldred accepted and used the 3-nights stay as a call-in give-away prize on one of his Friday shows, the shows he most usually gives a free creamy certificate, donated by the Frosty Wosty, to the 4th caller, but doesn’t wait roun long enough for the phone to ring, and ends up cashing in the free creamy certificate himself.

Eldred announced: “Them what jingles this here wall phone right off quickest, stays 3 nights free in New York City, in a loft apartment, somewheres near the Little Eye-talian area … in an aroun.”

Eldred had been out of his county twice his whole life and wouldn’t mind taking the 3 free nights stay in New York City for himself. And

20940

if could find out the loft had a bed large enough, he’d maybe bring the ole lady.

Eldred thought he’d count out loud to 17, and if no one rung, he’d head back to the field and hay.

Filling the silence between Eldred’s speaking numbers 13 and 14 was the ring of Gib Campbell Jr., Gib Campbell the 4th’s father Gib Campbell the 3rd’s grandfather, and Gib Campbell the 5ths great-grandfather … case you hadn’t figured that all out on your own.

And if you had, as always, I give extra credit if you show your work.

Gib Campbell Jr’s wife, Campy Campbell’d, loved Italian things, and would do anything to see Little Italy, including lifting the moratorium on she and Gib’s marital relations, which could explain why Gib hopped down from his 1967 Farmall 806, run cross 4 and a half freshly tetted acres of field, dialed and rung Eldred, in 13 and a half seconds.

After Gib and Campy returned from the trip, Eldred interviewed Gib on the air.

Eldred: How was the City?

Gib: The plane and taxi rides tightened my touchhole so, I didn’t leave the loft for two days.

Campy yanked me out on the third day, and we observed a terrible display of debaucherish behavior. And would you believe Eldred, me and Campy went and caught the Cirque du Soleil?

It’s an awful mess.

Eldred: Oh, I caught that once at the Tunbridge Fair. Rub some suave on it, it should be gone up by morning.

The original joke starts from “ … would you believe …” through to the end of the piece “ … gone by morning ” and was an actual exchange I’d had with a check-out lady at a grocery mart.

Understand this is a first draft, awaiting many tweaks, memorization, and performance, followed up by much more of the same.

After working and performing if for a year, it could be quite different from what you’ve just read. But it will retain the basic form, and by then could work very well.

It’s what I do for a living. Beats working.

‘Drive Green Challenge’ kicks off in county

Why book publishers won’t tell the truth

Area residents interested in the latest tractor offerings from John Deere are invited to stop by Mountain View Equipment in Middlebury on July 27-28 as it hosts the 2012 John Deere Drive Green Challenge.

Now in its fourth year, the Drive Green Challenge offers tractor buyers and owners the chance to compare the newest compact and utility tractors from John Deere to tractors from other manufacturers.

Michael Hendy of Mountain View Equipment said he is confident attendees will see the differences immediately.

“One of the great things about this event is the fact that we put John Deere equipment side-by-side with competitive-model tractors,” Hendy said. “Folks who’ve been doing their comparison shopping online can come in, drive each machine, and see for themselves how John Deere stacks up to the rest.”

In addition, tractor experts from John Deere and Mountain View Equipment will be on hand to answer any questions.

“Whether you’re a first-time buyer or you’re looking to trade an older tractor,” says Hendy, “the 2012 Drive Green Challenge gives you the perfect opportunity to drive the equipment, kick the tires, and speak with the experts.”

The 2012 John Deere Drive Green Challenge comes to the Mountain View Equipment location in Middlebury on Friday, July 27, from 10 a.m.-4 p.m., and Saturday, July 28, from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. Admission is free.

For more information, contact Mountain View Equipment at 802-388-4482.

Mountain View Equipment is a local John Deere dealer with locations in Rutland and Middlebury and Plattsburgh and Malone, N.Y.

As the publishing industry gathers in New York for its annual trade show, BookExpo America, they’re discussing everything except the one piece of information authors crave: how many books they actually sell.

There is no equivalent of gold records in the book publishing industry. That’s because sales numbers are almost impossible to come by, and the numbers you can track down simply cannot be verified.

Publishers are loath to provide accurate sales figures, for two reasons. One is that they don’t want authors to know how many copies they sold, so that they don’t have to pay all the royalties due the authors. Second, they’re embarrassed by how few copies most books sell.

Publishers control sales data the way the former Soviet Union controlled data regarding the sale of wheat, with about as little honesty and transparency. So what’s an author to do?

First, they can go to BookScan, a service of the A.C. Nielsen survey company. Bookscan is the primary means by which publishers get sales data, which they use when considering whether to buy a new book from a previously published author. Amazon makes Bookscan data available to individual authors for their own books through its Author Central program. Sounds great, but BookScan isn’t perfect.

Bookscan measures sales for only about 75 percent of the book vendors in the United States, including Amazon and brick-and-mortar Barnes & Noble stores. So the numbers point toward the success level of a given book, but don’t provide precise sales data. On top of that, most small, independent book publishers don’t report their sales to BookScan, so if your book was sold out of a garage, whether it’s your garage or someone else’s, you won’t find those numbers on BookScan. And BookScan also doesn’t count sales of ebooks or books sold for the Kindle, Nook, or other devices.

Amazon knows how many books it sells, but it won’t tell anyone, not even authors. Amazon does offer a sales ranking, updated hourly, of each book it sells, but those are relative and not absolute figures. In other words, the book ranked 100th on the list may outsell the 101st book by a factor of 10, but you’d never know it.

Every book published in the United States that’s offered for sale through bookstores or Amazon must carry an ISBN number and bar code. You’d think you could track sales in real time by punching in those numbers, the same way you can track delivery of a FedEx package. Wrong again. Sales data is in the hands of the publishers and booksellers, and they certainly aren’t turning over critical information like that to anyone.

You can always call your publisher and ask how many copies were sold, but that presumes you can get through their automated phone answering system. Unfortunately, you can’t. An author is welcome to demand an audit from a publisher, but good luck. It’s expensive and time-consuming, it brands the author as a hothead, and even audited numbers aren’t necessarily worth the paper they’re printed on. If the publishers control the data, how do you know that this time

Teen nabbed for DUI, other charges PANTON — Vermont State Police were on patrol on Lake Street in Panton when a trooper observed a vehicle traveling north on Lake Street in the south bound lane.

As this vehicle traveled past the trooper, a breaking glass sound was heard. It was suspected that the vehicle collided with a close by mailbox or street sign.

As the trooper attempted to stop this vehicle, the vehicle led State Police, Vergennes Police, Middlebury Police, and Bristol Police on a multi-mile pursuit that went through the towns of Panton, Addison, Bridport, Cornwall, and Weybridge.

The vehicle came to stop on Water Street in Weybridge.

The operator, identified as MacKenzie Sullivan, 18, of Panton, was then taken into custody. There were two passengers in the vehicle. Nobody was hurt.

Sullivan was processed for DUI and ultimately was charged with attempting to elude, DUI, gross careless and negligent operation, and excessive speed. Further investigation will be conducted regarding beer bottles being thrown out of the vehicle on Lake Street.

No criminal charges are pending for the passengers.

newmarketpress@denpubs.com HINESBURG — The new Hinesburg Recreation Path in under construction in this photograph taken June 23.

According to resident and path advocate Aaron Kimball, “The path will connect the Hinesburg Post Office to the library along Mechanicsville and CVU roads in Hinesburg. Construction is expected to be completed by the end of the year.

Construction contractor S.D. Ireland started construction in early June. Work began at the intersection of Route 116 and Champlain Valley Union Road intersection. The path will continue east toward the high school.

“In this area, the ten foot wide paved path is off the existing road, traffic impacts will be sporadic, mainly for trucks,” according to Hinesburg official Rocky Martin. “They indicated they will have another crew starting from the Commerce-Mechanicsville roads intersection. Construction in much of this area will involve curbing with the five foot sidewalk close to the road.”

Engineering work was performed by VHB of Ferrisburg. Construction inspection services are being provided by Staff Sterling Management of Morrisville.

Martin said traffic will be reduced to one lane and asked motorists to seek alternate routes and to expect traffic delays and heavy construction vehicles.

Guest Commentary they’re telling you the truth?

Another area in which publishers dupe authors is in sales of rights to other entities –foreign publishers, translation rights, or book club sales.

Major publishers may or may not sprinkle a little Book Of The Month Club money in your account, but you have no way of knowing how much you really deserve. Same thing is true if they sell copies in bulk sales. Their attitude is that their business is none of your business.

In short, there’s really no way to know how many copies you’ve sold.

From a publisher ’s standpoint, a perfect world would be one where there are no authors at all – no one whose hand needs holding, no one whose royalties need to be paid, no one who calls demanding more action on the marketing of their books. Since writers remain a necessary evil to publishers, their strategy has been to commoditize writing and thus drive down the cost of getting a book written. If a publisher has to build up an author as a brand, the publisher is actually increasing the amount of money that author needs to be paid for his or her next book. But if writing becomes fungible, there will always be a plethora of scriveners suffering from low self-esteem willing and happy to write any book on any subject for a few thousand dollars. Or even for no advance at all.

You can only cheat authors for so long before they decide to fight back. Fighting back doesn’t mean creating a tent city called “Occupy BookExpo.”

It means that authors are increasingly abandoning New York and instead publishing their books themselves, via Kindle Direct, Lulu, Xlibris, Smashwords, print-on-demand companies, and other means. It’s never been easier to target niche markets via Google AdWords, Pinterest, and Facebook.

The stigma of self-publishing is rapidly disappearing. Authors now go directly to their readerships without the intervention or disingenuousness of the New York publishers.

Business professors call this phenomenon “disintermediation,” the elimination of the middleman. Publishers have no regard for authors, as demonstrated by their mushroom strategy when it comes to providing accurate sales data, and by the decline in the fees they pay authors to write books.

You have to wonder what they’re talking about at BookExpo America. If they’re smart, the publishers are talking about what industries they can find jobs in now that the traditional New York publishing model is on its last legs. But since they aren’t smart, they’re having the usual panel discussions on how to rearrange deck chairs and keep the Titanic band playing on.

At the height of the economic collapse in 2008, Simon & Schuster editor Michael Korda said that the publishing industry had weathered difficult storms before, and it wouldn’t be long before everyone – publishers and agents – would be back to having lunch again.

Wrong. If I were an editor attending BookExpo America, I wouldn’t be making lunch reservations. Instead, I’d leave early and head to a Starbucks where I can work on my resume.

Enjoying Starksboro’s gardens of delight

By Lou Varricchio

newmarketpress@denpubs.com

STARKSBORO — “God Almighty planted the first garden.

And indeed, it is the purest of human pleasures.” Sir Francis Bacon.

As Amsterdam-native Marijke Niles, 66, tells visitors to her nursery business located along Robert Young Road in the foothills of Starksboro, she inherited the Dutch way of gardening in harmony with nature.

As a young girl growing up in a house along an Amsterdam canal, where flowers appear everywhere, Marijke (pronounced Mah-ree-ka) blossomed quickly—a little bit like the childhood tulip garden she lovingly tended.

Now, living an ocean away from her native Netherlands, this certified UVM Master Gardener continues to nurture her life’s passion—that is, turning a myriad of seeds and cuttings into healthy flowering, ornamental and vegetable plants.

“I opened Marijke's Perennial Gardens Plus in spring 2007 with no particular blueprint,” Marijke said. “All I knew is that, in my mind’s eye, I wanted to transform the landscape into a nursery that would be beautiful, educational, witty, and in harmony with the environment.”

Five years later, Marijke and her husband, retired Porter Hospital orthopedic surgeon Dr. Price Niles, have transformed what was a weedy eight-acre hillside property, situated at 1,500 feet above sea level, into a cultivated paradise.

While the couple keeps busy with the garden business during the growing season, in the dark winter months, Marijke works as a ski instructor at the Sugarbush resort. Skiing means a lot to Marijke and Price; after all, husband and wife first met each other on snowy slopes.

Unlike other garden centers, a quick scan of Marijke’s gardens shows no greenhouse in sight.

Since Marijke specializes in USDA Zone 4 and colder plants, she has dispensed with the need to winter-over tender plants in energy guzzling greenhouses. Instead, this master gardener has devised a unique system of layering her plants—using organic materials and tarps—at the start of cold weather. This neat trick appears to keep specimens in a healthy, dormant state during the winter months (with only minor losses); properly banked, these living plants are ready to reawaken come spring.

Again, scanning Marijke’s commercial garden layout, you will notice several artistically designed “mini gardens” interconnected by grassy, winding paths.

The paths skirt a small pond with dock (visitors are welcome to take a dip), labeled flower gardens, folksy bird baths and feeders, and then meanders through a gap between two, glacial erratics (boulders).

One boulder, a true Goliath giant, and the other, a lithified David, are both frozen in time.

The erratics are ancient, metamorphic rocks that were dropped in the Niles’ front yard—thanks to a retreating Ice Age glacier—10,000 years ago. The boulders provide an eyecatching backdrop to a very welcoming greenscape.

Each one of Marijke’s mini-gardens exhibit special groupings of plants.

The garden plots provide gardeners with everything from landscaping ideas to what variety of plant to consider—as well as when and where to place at home.

Take the Rock Garden, in the shadow of “Goliath”, with its cold-hardy variety of New England’s only native cactus species. This rugged prickly pear cactus plant (Latin name: Opuntia humifusa) happily endures Vermont’s coldest winters—providing it is planted in sandy, well-drained soil in a southern exposure.

Nearby, the Hen House Garden displays a touch of folksy humor with miniature, cut-out roosters which point the way to an unusual selection of succulents commonly known as Hens and Chicks (Latin name: Crassulaceae). These plants, native to Europe and North Africa, are deceptive; they look like they should be xeriscape specimens, but in reality they enjoy Vermont’s cool, wet climate.

“Nearly everything I grow and sell should please Vermont gardeners,” she said. “There’s lots of variety. My plants are either native to New England or will thrive in our climate.

Ninety-nine percent of my plants are field grown right here in Addison County.”

Healthy, hardy flowering plants, shrubs, edible-berry bearing bushes, vegetables and rock-garden curiosities will delight even the most jaded gardener. And you won’t find many pesky insects at this Starksboro Eden to annoy your plant shopping expedition. Happy birds, attracted by the many plantings, keep their bellies full of bugs all summer long.

The Niles’ respect for the environment is a key factor when it comes to marketing their business.

“Our nursery is certified and licensed by the Vermont

Agency of Agriculture, Food and Markets,” Marijke said. ”We are also participating in the Plant Wise Vermont program—protecting our woods and waterways. We always garden in a responsible, sustainable manner. If we avoid chemicals in the garden, nature will reward us. We also believe it’s time to reduce our carbon footprint. So, we invite customers to bring their reusable, used pots and creative containers. We will happily recycle them.”

And when a shopper ’s garden cart is full of Marijke’s nicely priced plant treasures to take home, there’s really no need to rush off.

Sit a spell at the nursery’s Dutch-style Spa, a woodsy outdoor café set under a copse of Colorado spruce trees. You’re invited to relax, and enjoy the sounds, smells and color of nature around you at Marijke’s. Like us, you probably won’t be in a big hurry to leave. But then the Niles have invited

you to return to enjoy, again, that purest of human pleasures—the magic of being in Marijke’s Perennial Gardens Plus.

Check it out: Marijke’s Perennial Gardens Plus is open May 1 –Sept. 15, daily 9 a.m.-6 p.m., Wednesday 2-7 p.m., closed Tuesday. The nursery is open most Wednesdays, 9 a.m.-12:30 p.m. From East Middlebury via Bristol, take Route 116 north to Route 17 east. Turn right (east). Drive three miles to Lafayette Road (second on left). Turn left, 0.3 mile to Robert Young Road. Turn right 0.3 mile to 1299 Robert Young Rd. You can also meet Marijke at her stand at the Middlebury Farmer ’s Market in the downtown Marble Works.

GMP completes restoration of 12,000 customer outages COLCHESTER — After a strong storm ripped through Vermont late afternoon of Independence Day, Green Mountain Power linecrews worked through the night to restore power to the 12,000 customers affected by the storm. By 4:30 p.m. last Thursday, power had been restored to all but a couple dozen customers, who are expected to be restored by sundown.

“Our crews worked tirelessly to restore power,” said GMP spokeswoman Dorothy Schnure. “With our new combined resources, we were able to assess the damage statewide and strategically deploy crews and equipment more quickly across the new service territory to improve restoration time.

This is exactly what we had expected to be able to do as the new merged company.”

The storm began at 5 p.m., July 4, in northeastern Vermont.

A second wave with winds up to 70 miles per hour hit northwestern Vermont around 7 p.m. and traveled south, affecting customers throughout the state.

Trees and branches blew down, knocking out power, and lightning damaged underground electrical systems.

Additional outages occurred as crews worked through the night and the overall number of customers affected rose to approximately 12,000.

If any Green Mountain Power customer is still without power, they should call 1-888TEL-GMPC (1-888-835-4672). Customers may also report outages on-line at www.greenmountainpower.com.

Miles, Mister Up’s, Two Brothers Tavern, Goodro Lumber, Waterfalls Day Spa, Otter Creek Brewing, Woodchuck Cider, American Flatbread, Noonie Deli, Vermont Federal Credit Union, and others, including many individuals, have stepped up with donations of cash and raffle items for the first annual Adam Myers Memorial Fundraiser.

Holmes Jacobs, co-owner of Two Brothers Tavern in Middlebury, considered Myers a good friend. Jacobs was also his employer at the downtown tavern.

“Adam was a wonderful individual,” Jacobs said. “He was a devoted and loving husband, father, and friend. His civic service to the community will be missed on so many levels. We are proud to honor his memory, and dedication to the community, by raising money for something he cared so deeply about.”

On the morning of Saturday, July 21, there will be a Myers Middlebury Mini

Muster at Middlebury’s Recreation Park.

This activity starts at 10 a.m. and continues until noon.

According to Jacobs, children of all ages are encouraged to join members of the Middlebury Fire Department at the Recreational Park at the mini muster for fun, games, refreshments, and a tour of Middlebury’s fleet of spotless fire engines.

On the evening of July 21, friends and family will gather again, this time at Two Brothers Tavern. There they will listen to the music of Snake Mountain Bluegrass, an Addison County band. The music program starts at 7 p.m.

Following the bluegrass show, more than $2,000 in raffle prizes will be awarded.

Tickets are $2 each or $5 for three and are on sale at the fire house and the tavern.

“Two Brothers Tavern will be donating 10 percent of our total sales from Saturday to the Middlebury Fire Department,” Jacobs said.

You don’t need to have personally known Adam Myers to be a part of the July 21 events. Individuals and families are welcome to share in the day’s activities.

State wants tips on locations of old tire piles

By Lou Varricchio

newmarketpress@denpubs.com MONTPELIER — Like to snoop on your neighbors? When it comes to piles of old tires, the Vermont Legislature and the Vermont Agency of Natural Resources are actively seeking snitches.

Recent state law passed earlier this year now requires the Agency of Natural Resources to compile a database of “problem tire piles” around the state.

ANR will, in turn, estimate the cost and time needed to remove the tires at inventoried locales.

ANR officials define problem tire piles as those as having 100 tires or more.

“We are aware of a number of tire piles, especially those at salvage yards, but there could be many more scattered throughout the state,” said Cathy Jamieson, ANR’s Solid Waste Program manager. “We are asking for local input in determining where those piles are.”

To identify where tire piles are located, ANR has set up an Internet survey that will pinpoint big tire piles.

Jamieson said likely “problem” piles will be several hundred. They are typically in junk yards and around farms, some discreetly hidden from view.

“Most scrap tires in Vermont are responsibly collected through retail tire dealers or solid waste facilities,” Jamieson added, “but some persons may not want to pay the $2 or $3 recycling fee and are stockpiling or disposing of the tires improperly. We need to get a sense of how much of a problem this is.”

The law allows the ANR to fund tire pile clean ups, but only after providing Owners of problem tire piles are asked to do the clean up work, but ANR has offered repayment—thanks to taxpayers—for the clean up costs.

The Vermont Legislature expects a report from ANR at the start of the January session.

Arts Walk

The Middlebury Arts Walk: Where to go, what to see

from page 1 home to Otter Creek Used Books and Green Mountain Shoe & Apparel) is a new pop-up art gallery that will feature work from at least ten different artists.

Artists/Gallery Talk at Jackson Gallery: The North Chittenden Women’s Art Collective, featuring Althea Bilodeau, Bonnie Baird, Elizabeth Holland, Gabrielle McDermit, Jeannie Podolak, and Kathryn Milillo, is a consortium of women artists working in various media and have actively collaborated to strengthen and support their artwork. They will talk about their work at 7 p.m. in the Jackson Gallery. The talk is presented by the Middlebury Studio School. This is the third in a series of four talks funded by the Vermont Committee of the National Museum of Women in the Arts.

Now in its fourth season, Middlebury Arts Walk takes place on the second Friday of the month, May through October, from 5 to 7 p.m. In many cases the art is on display all month long—not just on the second Friday. All exhibits are free and Arts Walk is a family-friendly event. Middlebury Arts Walk occupies 30+ locations each month including artists’ galleries, stores, professional offices and museums.

In addition, musicians perform in the town’s outdoor parks whenever possible and weather permitting. The range of work on view includes paintings, photography, performances and crafts.
