Lake Champlain Bridge slated for demolition By Fred Herbst newmarketpress@denpubs.com ADDISON/CROWN POINT — The Lake Champlain Bridge in Crown Point, closed for a month because of safety concerns, will be demolished. Engineers have determined it is not feasible to rehabilitate the 80-year-old span. An underwater inspection of the bridge's concrete piers and underlying foundations found cracks and significant deterioration in the nonreinforced concrete substructures well below the water level that render these supports so fragile that a sudden collapse could occur. “Safety was our primary concern when we closed the Lake Champlain Bridge last month and it is our chief interest now,” New York Gov. David Paterson said, announcing the decision to tear down the bridge. “We must make a decision that protects those who cross the bridge, as well as workers and engineers, and therefore we have no choice but to tear down the dangerously deteriorated bridge.” The bridge is jointly owned by New York and Vermont, although New York has responsibility for bridge maintenance. “Reports indicate that the bridge is highly unstable and our harsh winter will only aggravate its condition,” Vermont Gov. Jim Douglas said. “For everyone’s safety, the bridge must be dismantled in a controlled fashion quickly so that a replacement bridge can be erected in its place.”

Middlebury College drinking party raided MIDDLEBURY — Middlebury College has a black eye in the community this week after news of a raid on a large binge-drinking party was released Nov. 3. The raid was made Oct. 30 according to several state and local police reports. Several students were cited with civil and criminal charges. The Vermont Department of Liquor Control, Vermont State Police, and Middlebury and Bristol police departments coordinated the sweeping raid at a student house located at 424 Quarry Rd. The raid took place at 11:30 p.m., Oct. 30. More than a dozen students, all under age, told police they were Middlebury school students; all were issued citations for under-age consumption. Several of the students charged were residents of the Quarry Road rental house and are members of the Middlebury College lacrosse team. Police said one student was not charged as of Nov. 3.
FALLEN HEROES HONORED — Members of American Legion Post 27 in Middlebury remembered Veterans Day this year just as they do every year on Nov. 11, the old Armistice Day of World War I. A special Post 27 honor guard made up of local veterans payed tribute to Vermont’s fallen heroes wearing the uniforms of the U.S. Armed Services. Here a bugler plays Taps during last year’s ceremony.

Nick Lynch’s personal best newmarketpress@denpubs.com MIDDLEBURY — Middlebury-based physical trainer Nick Lynch, CFT, SSC, is betting that a lot more Vermonters are going to get in better physical shape in the coming new year. In fact, Lynch—who turns age 25 this week—is sure those Vermonters are going to need personal training assistance and a tangible plan to achieve their personal bests. To support his physical training hunch, Lynch recently created a unique, Internetbased personal training “center” called Superb Health. The enterprise also includes family members who are also skilled health professionals. “This kind of thing has never been done on the Internet before,” Lynch said. “We make it painless to see tangible progress in a physical fitness program. All you need is a computer and Internet connection.” Lynch’s Imsuperb.com website is a one-of-kind fitness, nutrition and chiropractic website that puts him a commanding position in the field of “hybrid” fitness training. On the website, you’ll find a variety of exercise routines, healthy food and cooking suggestions from the Superb Health nutritionist, and even lifestyle, vitamin, and body insight from the website’s chiropractor, brother Jim Lynch of Montpelier. “We all have different beliefs on how to gain and maintain health and happiness. Unfortunately, many of us have come to believe that achieving health and happiness through proper exercise and diet is not convenient,” Lynch said. “That’s why I created Superb Health—I want to make achieving health and happiness, through proper exercise and nutrition, a lot easier.” Lynch said his program combines “dynamic exercise routines, proper nutrition,

and chiropractic advice”. “Imsuperb.com allows you to achieve optimal mental and physical well-being,” he said. Lynch’s interactive website includes easy-to-view exercise videos; you can also chat with Imsuperb.com’s Vermontbased health professionals. This writer signed up for Lynch’s one-day free trail. There was enough good guidance to inspire and entice one to join the full membership option. “Our mission is for this website to grow and progress,” Lynch said. “So come on in—it’s really a new way to health and it’s just a click away.” According to Lynch, website members will be able to track their progress with the a notebook feature. You can also contact the Superb Health professionals in the chat room when you feel lost, have questions, need a pep talk, or feel like talking with other members of the site. “Everyday of the week there will be a health professional live in our chatroom to talk with you and offer insights. This web site is a safe place for developing a healthy lifestyle for the rest of your life. All of the people working on this web site are happy, healthy, and passionate individuals who enjoy working with people,” Lynch said. Lynch has been slowly building his customer base and visibility in Vermont. In September, Superb Health co-sponsored a 5K race in Vermont to benefit Special Olympics. Other sponsors included Lynch Family Chiropractic and Black Diamond sportswear. Healthy food at the run was provided by

The strange case of the tardigan
U
fologists claim that the U.S. government is conspiring to keep secret alien spacecraft technology. Troubled medical patients have told psychologists about their alleged abductions by mysterious bulbheaded ETs. While this writer is a flying saucer and “close encounter” skeptic, there are lifeforms living on the Earth that beg the question: “What exactly is an extraterrestrial?” For example, could some unusually rugged microscopic lifeforms found on Earth have arrived on this planet from elsewhere? And if they evolved on Earth, why do they exhibit survival traits for environments not found anywhere on the Earth? Several microscopic critters alive today defy conventional ideas about the survivability of terrestrial life in space— Let’s take a look at a funny looking microscopic tardigrade, commonly called the water piglet or water bear. Tardigrades were discovered in pond water samples by Johann Goeze in 1773. Goeze called them Gleiner Wasserbär, a German term for Little Water Bear. Indeed, tardigrades look like miniature, cartoon bears; they are water animals which live their lives in and around bodies of water. The Latin name tardigrada means “slow walker”—these six-legged critters have a gait that looks like an animated Disney bear ’s walk. Of course water bears aren’t anywhere near the size of mammalian bears we’re familiar with; the biggest Gleiner Wasserbär is only 1.5 mm in length. If we didn’t know tardigrades were terrestrial creatures, we might take them to be tiny extraterrestrial visitors that hitched a ride to Earth on an extrasolar meteorite. Tardigrades are what biologists call polyextremophiles— that is, they can live in extreme environments that would otherwise kill other animals. In Russian experiments, tradigrades have been found to survive temperatures close to absolute zero; they also survive temperatures up to 300°F. In other experiments, tardigrades waddled happily through a radiation bath 1,000 times more deadly than an atomic bomb blast. Also, tardigardes discovered in 100year-old dessicated mud deposits were reanimated and brought back to life by researchers. Even more bizarre are tardigrades that have survived the deadly vacuum of space! According to biologist W.N. Gabriel, “In September 2007, tardigrades were taken into low Earth orbit aboard the RussianESA FOTON-M3 mission. For 10 days the creatures were exposed to the vacuum of space. After they were returned to Earth, it was discovered that many of them survived and laid eggs that hatched normally, making these the only animals shown to be able to survive the vacuum of space.”
Here are two questions about the tardigan that puzzle most researchers: How could a terrestrial lifeform evolve to survive exposure to the vacuum and high energy radiation of space? Why did tardigrades evolve an ability to survive a century in a kind of dehydrated suspended animation (especially when it already lives in watery environments with no geohistory of drought?) Were these microscopic creatures, and others like them, exposed to the environment of space in ancient times? Is that why they evolved such extreme environmental survival mechanisms? What evolutionary factors influenced this polyextremophile to endure the extremes of outer space when it appears to have originated here on planet Earth? There is no clear solution to the tardigan mystery at this time. What’s in the Sky: This week and next, view two of the stars in Frank Herbert’s classic sci-fi saga “Dune”—Giedi Prime and Secundus. The stars are in the constellation Capricorn in the southwest; other objects are M75 and the asteroid Iris, a recent find. The Moon hovers above the horizon in the crescent phase.

Couponing's Best-Kept Secrets: Don't Believe Everything You See
O
ne of the most common misconceptions about coupons is that the item that you buy must match the picture that appears on the face of the coupon. It's true that you can use the coupon to purchase the item that's pictured. However, you want to pay close attention to the text on a coupon, too. After all, the text contains the precise information that the coupon's bar code is programmed to deliver at the checkout counter. Which brings us to this week's tip.
Super-Couponing Secret: Forget the Photos, Read the Fine Print It's a very common marketing technique for a manufacturer to show a new or more expensive variety of a product on the face of a coupon in the hope that you will buy this new or more expensive variety. If you read the coupon, though, you'll discover that the offer is good for "$1 off any [brand] product." Consider a coupon for a new variety of cold medicine put out by a leading manufacturer. The coupon may show the new, multi-symptom medicine in the picture, hoping that you will want to try it, but the text states clearly that you can use the coupon on any medicine from this manufacturer. Learning to distinguish between what the photo suggests and the full terms of the deal that the text actually spells out is a skill that can really help shoppers, giving us more freedom to buy the item we may prefer versus the variety shown in the photo. I recently had a coupon for a new variety of skin-care product. It showed a photo of the lotion, and the text read "$1 off [brand] lotion, body wash, or any [brand] product." That wording is key! When I didn't see a good sale for the company's lotions or body wash, I did see a bar of the same brand of soap - for 99 cents. With my coupon, it was free. Brand-name sandwich meat is an area where it can pay to read coupon wording closely. People often ask me how to save at the deli counter. It's not always easy to get discounts on fresh-cut cold cuts. But many meat manufacturers sell pre-packaged deli meats, too, and there are often coupons for those. Look closely at the wording on these
coupons. While the coupon may show a boxed or bagged variety of meat, the wording often spells out a wider deal, such as "$1 off 1 package of [brand] sliced By Jill Cataldo meat, or 1lb. of [brand] sliced meats at the deli." These coupons are a great way to save on fresh-sliced meats of the same brand at the deli counter. Ready for another tip? This one involves brand loyalty. While we all have favorite brands of things, our brand loyalty can cost us in the long run if we aren't shopping smart for those favorite-brand items when they're on sale. Major brands often engage in what the industry calls "price wars" with one another. We see this frequently with items such as pasta sauce, where numerous brands compete to sell what is essentially the same product. Brand A may be cheap one week, but next week Brand B barrels in with an even lower price. This works out well for shoppers who aren't particularly partial to any specific brand. But, if we think "I really like Brand A, and I will always buy it no matter what," it's great when Brand A is on sale for $1.29 a jar and we've got a 75-cent coupon for it. But when the sale ends and Brand A goes back up to $3.29 a jar, we'll be paying the price. If we can let some of our brand preferences slide a little bit and fluctuate along with the sales, we can save more money in the long run. Next week, I'll share one of the biggest and most surprising tips with you. It involves which days of the week are the least expensive days to shop at the grocery store. You might be surprised to learn what they are! © CTW Features

On a clear day—you can see forever By Lou Varricchio newmarketpress@denpubs.com MIDDLEBURY — When Lisa Pippa Alexander, M.D., made the final decision to relocate to Vermont from New York City, she knew it was time to slow down and live life to the fullest. She also wanted to raise her sevenyear-old daughter Chloe in a clean, green environment with a welcoming feel of community. While Alexander had a successful ophthalmology practice in Manhattan’s Chinatown, she didn’t worry too much about resuming the practice in distant Vermont. After several extended visits and skiing trips to the Green Mountain State, she selected making Middlebury her home. “Vermont is gorgeous and appeals to me on many levels,” Alexander said. “So, I was ripe and ready to move.” After studying art in college, Alexander began her unusual career path which was a unique bridge from the visual arts to the visual sciences. As Alexander advanced in her passion for painting— and with several well-attended New York City exhibits under her belt—she grew fascinated with the internal workings of the human eye and how it perceived art. How did the eye interpret color and light levels? How could such a fragile and marvelous organ become diseased or diminished? Vision was among the greatest gifts of human life, Alexander knew instinctively—and as a result, she wanted to help others hold on to that precious gift for all of their lives. So, while still in her 20s,

Alexander began to study the eye. She enrolled in SUNY Health Science Center at Brooklyn to began the pursuit of a medical degree. She did her internship at Greenwich Hospital and then assumed a residency in ophthalmology at New York Medical College. Along the way, she successfully reached professional milestones including American Academy of Ophthalmology diplomate and American Board of Ophthalmology board certified. But along the way, the artistturned-physician never lost her passion for both art and science. While Alexander trained as an eye surgeon, she preferred the daily challenges of eye health maintenance as an eye physician. Thus began her current focus—so to speak. “It’s important to take
good care of the health of your eyes,” she said. “Good nutrition, sunglasses with UV radiation protection, safety glasses when doing automotive, building or electrical work, eye protective wear for sports and regular eye exams—all help you maintain the health of your eye.” Alexander ’s office at 76 Court St. (Route 7) in Middlebury opened in August 2008. Her small personalized care approach harkens back to an old-fashioned country doctor. She knows her patients by first name and they know her, too. Alexander brings a breath of fresh air to what can often be a sterile field when viewed by the lay person. Add to that the young doctor ’s varied background, and she brings to the exam room a vibrant view of life and a humane approach that bridges both art and science
and puts the patient—the individual—front and center in her practice. Youth, middle aged, or senior citizen—now is the time to take regular care of your eyes. Medical diseases and their medications often have related eye problems, that’s why a M.D. makes sense for your regular eye health maintenance. Dr. Alexander ’s door is always open. If you have medical problems or concerns relating to vision, you’ll be in no more capable and caring hands. Alexander accepts most health plans and is always open to discussion.

he focus in the local classical music scene this last weekend was the double appearance of Cliburn competitor Di Wu, who was one of the six finalists in this year ’s competition. Wu appeared twice on the Lane Series: At UVM’s Redstone Recital Hall on Nov. 6 she gave a solo recital and another, Nov. ,7 with the Burlington Chamber Orchestra under the baton of composer/conductor Michael Hopkins. Technically this young pianist is gifted far beyond many of her peers. Her control of the softness or climactic almost pounding and their application of the appropriate touch and volume seemed to be absolute and the news gets better: She knows how to use her technique in the service of the music. She gave a preconcert talk before the Friday night concert, and the main thrust of her talk was to explain her attitude towards music and the performance of it and what was most important during this recreation of the composer ’s wishes. She said technical mistakes are not so important but misunderstandings of a composer ’s music as evidenced most frequently in the markings that the composer has put into the score are terribly important shortcomings. This is certainly something with which I am in full agreement. Di Wu has both the technical ability and the musical vision to become one of the leading pianists of her generation. Friday night’s program included works by both Robert and Clara Schumann in the first half and in the second half works by Maurice Ravel (one of her favorite composers) and a transcription by Franz Liszt of the Kermesse from Gounod’s opera, Faust. She played the mazurka
from the Soirées Musicales, Opus 6of Clara Schumann’s and followed it without a pause by the Davidsbundelertanze, Opus 6, the first movement of which Robert had given to her as a mark of his devotion. The composition was completed after they were married, and it proclaims two separate types, marking the store as F. and E., the F. being the more outgoing and vivid boat metrically and volume wise, and the E. being more introspective. She did a brilliant job of contrasting these two points of view, and received an acknowledgment from the audience members, who applauded happily. Wu had stated earlier that Maurice Ravel was one of her especially favorite composers, and her performance of Miroirs (Mirrors) was a model of contrasts from the night-flying insects of Noctuelles to the most familiar of the pieces, Alborada del gracioso , a piece that Ravel orchestrated. Her technique gave her full musical control in her performance of this work. She closed the concert with Liszt’s transcription of the waltzes from the Kermesse scene from Faust by Charles Gounod. The contrast in this rather overblown work is between the waltzes sung by the chorus and the meeting between Marguerite and Faust. The propulsive drive of the waltzes stood in sharp contrast to the lyricism of the dialogue between the two principles. It was a brilliant performance musically and technically. On Saturday evening, Wu played the piano Concerto no. 2, op. 19 with The Burlington Chamber Orchestra under the direction of Michael Hopkins. The concerto was performed by the soloist and the ensemble with attention to detail, a dialogue that really reflected the views of both
participants (counting the orchestra as a single entity). The adagio movement was a model of bel canto, a beautiful and sensitive lyrical playing of long connected line that the soloist spun seemingly endlessly. The angularity of the third movement was delightful: sharp, well-drawn and propulsive. The first movement too and plenty of brio. The performance was a wonderful example of reciprocal dialoguing, where statement and answer are coherent and the music rolls along happily. Thank heavens for the Piano Consortium whose members make it possible for us to be able to hear artists of the stature of Di Wu. The chamber orchestra showed their expertise in the Concerto Grosso Opus 6, no. 10. Their playing especially of the third allegro movement was exemplary. They also played one of Mendelssohn’s youthful string symphonies. Thank heavens for the BCO. Now in their third year, they are once again proving to be a formidable group of musicians and thank heavens for those community members who support them financially. We are in its debt. Burlington resident Dan Wolfe observes and critiques the local arts scene for The Eagle. His column appears weekly.

The Logger’s holiday Taxpayer funds to support local police, first responders variety show hits the road Comedian to visit Paramount Theatre After a hiatus of three years, comedian Rusty DeWees’ Logger Holiday Variety Show is touring Vermont for the 2009-2010 holidays. Shows will be staged at the Paramount Theatre in Rutland, and at the South Burlington and Stowe high schools. “I performed in Maine and New Hampshire a bunch, and I wrote a book, “Scrawlins”—a collection of my Eagle and Rutland Tribune newspaper columns—which left no time to put a holiday show together the past three years. People have been missing the show and they tell me it’s a family holiday tradition. So we’ve been working almost a year on this Holiday show, and tell you what, it’s going to be a rig the folks don’t want to miss,” DeWees said. Audiences familiar with the Logger ’s variety show will get to meet French Canadian Uncle Furmon—again. Everybody’s favorite uncle will be in the show more than ever before as he dances and prances to the audience’s delight (drunk on life and cheap hooch). Champion fiddler Don Commo and fivetime Emmy Award winning guitarist Peter Wilder —along with Rusty on guitar and drums—will be doing the heavy lifting for the variety show’s full slate of musical numbers. The Logger ’s Holiday Variety Show is a face paced, smooth flowing, collection of comedy, dancing, and music, that harken back to days when the entire family would sit around the television in the living room (Yes, people actually used their living rooms), and enjoy an evening of entertainment together. Think Dean Martin, Sonny and Cher, and Carol Burnett— the 1960s and 1970s style family variety television shows that America tuned into. Add Rusty’s familiar Logger style comedy stories, and a pair of Vermont’s most talented guest stars (singer Keeghan Nolan and dancer Kerry Izzo), and you have a full show for the whole family. “Yeah, these gals, Keeghan and Kerry are talented like you won’t believe,” said DeWees. ”They’re going to bring the house down.” Among the songs Nolan will sing is “Sparks Fly” for which she won first place at CMA’s Rising Vocal Competition in Nashville, Tenn. “I’m very lucky to have the ladies in the show,” he said. Which of course makes you and your family lucky too, when you all go to the Logger ’s Holiday Variety Show—a Vermonter holiday tradition. This holiday season the curtain will rise at the Paramount Theatre in Rutland, South Burlington High School, and Stowe High School. The show is rated SC for Some Cussin’ and is appropriate for the entire family. Show schedule: •Paramount Theatre, Rutland, Nov. 27-28, at 8 p.m. •South Burlington High School, Dec 11-12,18-19 at 8 p.m., and Dec. 20 at 7 p.m. •Stowe High School, Dec 31 and Jan 1-2 at 8 p.m. Tickets are $20.

The No Child Left Behind lawsuit
I
t’s often said—in both criticism and defense of the American legal system—that anyone can sue anyone else. Of course there are a few exceptions to the rule: one exception is the concept of sovereign immunity, the modern description of the feudal rule that the king can do no wrong. This has been adopted for political safety and legal shelter by all levels of contemporary government—just look at the recent events in Berkshire as an example. Another exception to the “sue anyone” rule arises when a court declines to hear a case. This has just happened in a suit against the feds brought by a handful of states—proudly led by Vermont and proudly championed by former RNESU school superintendent William Mathis. (The suit demands and argues on behalf of public education for—no surprise—more money.) Mathis based his argument on the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995, Public Law 104-4, which was adopted in 1995 to quell taxpayer negative response to a number of federal demands; these demands stated that private citizens must make public investments without reimbursement; for example, that businessowners must rebuild their existing facilities to meet new federal handicap access requirements. The lawsuit just noted is aimed at the No Child Left Behind legislation of 2001 which requires that public education do a better job of public education as measured in basic school subjects such as reading and math via the annual National Assessment of Educational Progress tests. Federal involvement in education comes as the Big String attached to federal money for schools—maybe ten percent of typical school budgets. Whether public schools could reject this money, cut the Big String, and teach as they wish is a legal question which hasn’t yet been legally argued. However, there’s one successful example of private education already doing just that: Hillsdale College in Michigan. Of course, there’s always home schooling and non-public education, both small but growing sectors of the school-choice spectrum; both typically produce students far more literate and numerate than their public school peers. (This fact is strongly demonstrated by SAT tests and in-college results.) The NAEP tests have been around since 1969 with their typically dismal student test-score findings published every year in the National Digest of Educational Statistics. The scores, in such subjects as mathematics and reading, have typically been in the mid-200s. For example, if you look at table 112 in the 2007 NDES (it covers the years 1971 to 2004) showing 4th graders in reading, they went from 208 to 219 (out of a possible 500), while 8th graders went from 255 to 259; and 11th graders went from 285 to—drumroll—285! These numbers equate to proficiency percentages in the low-20s to high 40s range; for example, Vermont 8th grade students came in at 42 percent proficient (that is, able to function at grade level) in 2007. No one in education cared much about these percentages as long as the test scores were deep-sixed and went unpublished to the taxpaying public, but that changed with a key part of NCLB that required: 1.) that public schools get almost all of their students to “proficient” by 2014, and 2.) from 2002 on each school must demonstrate measurable Annual Yearly Progress, as measured by improvements in NAEP test score results, towards that goal. (As an aside: to this day, the Vermont NAEP scores still aren’t posted on the public education website—wonder why?) The lawsuit mentioned above also takes a curious direction: it argues that nowhere in a contemporary educator’s job-description is the actual requirement (or expectation) that he/she get a specific number or percentage of his/her students to “proficient” and that, therefore, the new and offensive NCLB requirement is really an unfunded mandate as prohibited by P.L. 104-4. In contrast to military education—if the student didn’t learn, it’s because the teacher didn’t teach—or private education with various modes of student evaluation of instructors, public educators are adamant in rejecting student achievement as an indicator of teacher competence. Indeed, there are substantial sectors of the student body which can’t or won’t achieve “proficient” for reasons of intelligence, environment, or attitude which have been heavily discussed in the professional literature. In contrast, public education doctrine professes that all students are teachable. Note that the lawsuit doesn’t argue that teachers couldn’t get all their students to “proficient” if they wanted to, even the seemingly intractable sub-groups now dragging overall test scores down; it argues that with more money, they could do just that. Without more money, it just isn’t possible to make the effort, but with more money, it is. In the interim, public education apparently recognizes that it has a credibility problem similar to home appliance producers: “Don’t expect all your in-home devices to work as implied by our assurances of excellence when sold and so all states–except Nebraska—have purchased and deployed alternative tests, easier than NAEP, on which higher percentages of students miraculously make proficient. A recent lengthy Wall Street Journal article (Oct. 30, 2009) describes how the feds are forcing correlation of such easier tests as NECAP with the national standard: to show how much deception is underway, with implication—if not a direct promise—that such devices won’t go unchallenged. You have to agree with the lawsuit originators dismissing the judicial dismissal of their case: this argument isn’t over any time soon. Former Vermonter Martin Harris lives in Tennessee.

Kids and fever P
arents have been hot to ask me when to worry about their infant or toddler having a fever. Well, let me try to cool down everyone’s concern and provide some information on this topic. First you need to understand that fever is not a disease. It is a symptom that points to an insult - usually infectious-- in your child’s body. Second, you need to know that when your body’s temperature is elevated, your body is able to kill germs better. So, if fever is a symptom that can help us figure out what is wrong with your child, and germs get killed more quickly if the body’s temperature is elevated, is there any reason we cannot simply smile and say in many respects “fever is our friend”? Yet, when your child is hot and irritable with a fever you may not always view fever as your friend, so let me make some suggestions that might help with this problem. First, if your child is under a month or two of age and has a temperature of 100 degrees or higher, then please call your baby’s doctor to have them examined. The doctor
will determine if the baby has a serious problem such as a bacterial infection. He or she will likely recommend further tests often involving checking for infection in their blood, urine, chest, or spinal fluid, and if meningitis is a concern, since fever may be the only clue your baby is seriously ill. Second, if your child is over a few months of age and has been immunized, then we really don’t want to know the the specific height of the fever, just that your child has a fever. We will however, want to know how your infant or toddler is breathing and acting, and whether they are staying hydrated. If you are concerned about any of these things in addition to the fever, your pediatrician will want to see your child no matter what the number is on the thermometer. If they are breathing ok, and appear otherwise well but hot, then keep them hydrated and not too overactive. You can also give them acetaminophen or ibuprofen to reduce their temperature and irritability. As to sponge baths to bring down the temperature, use lukewarm rather than cool water since cool water will make your child shiver and drive the temperature higher. Please do not give your febrile child an alcohol bath, even if you got one when growing up, since we now know that these can cause drops in blood sugar and even a serious convulsion. So, no alcohol baths for your hot tot. Hopefully, tips like these will burn brightly in your minds so you can stay calm, cool, and collected the next time your young child has a fever. Lewis First, M.D., is chief of Pediatrics at Vermont Children’s Hospital at Fletcher Allen and chair of the Department of Pediatrics at the University of Vermont College of Medicine.
GUESTVIEWPOINT Controversial blogger says goodbye to Vermont t blogger who daily lampooned Vermont’s sometimes overly precious leaders and pop cultural icons, is leaving Vermont—for good. The blogger was a near-celebrity among many conservative and Internet saavy Vermonters who felt they could vent through the Woodchuck’s web page on www.nerepublican.com. While we are not at liberty to reveal the true identity of the Woodchuck, we think many readers will correctly guess the ‘Chuck’s true identity. So long, ‘Chuck—it was a fun ride. n or about Feb. 15, 1943, my mother and I traveled to Buffalo, N.Y., to see my father off to World War II. This being my first trip out of Vermont, it was easy for me—not so for her. Later, she related that it was a stressful journey. So, I put my mother in the hospital, where after a very short stay, on Feb, 23, I announced entry into this world. I suggested that the surroundings were hardly suitable and she remedied that by returning to Vermont posthaste. Some fools suggest this disqualifies me as being a true Vermonter. They can go sit on it. In some things, one has no say in the matter. Growing up in Vermont in the mid ‘50s, a maniac with a penchant for cropdusting taught me how to fly. This plays a role later (which is why I bring it up). Another war would cause my leaving Vermont, although I didn’t know it at the time. After my father died, my mother decided to move my brothers and sisters back to her mother ’s farm in Narrowsburg, N.Y. She had a job teaching school there and an easier life. While I helped her move there, the military draft caught up with me. I figured on a two year hitch, all said and done. When the U.S. Army found out I had a pilot’s license, they were overjoyed. I certainly was not. Officer basic training, a butter bar, Rucker and you’re an officer, gentleman and a good judge of whiskey and character. The Army seldom gets much right and didn’t this time either. I drank beer and I’m a character—a real Vermont Woodchuck. The two years as an Army aviator turned into six. But then the Army took on the rotary wing. Since I wasn’t going to fly rotors, I went with the Special Forces and put 32 months in Vietnam in 2 plus tours. This kept me out of Vermont for a long time. When I finally returned to Vermont, I found the state had been invaded and nobody was defending its borders. This invading army followed the mantra of “do your own thing” but really despised the concept for all those who didn’t do it their way. They overran the Green Mountain State. Looking back on it, the Afro Hutus and Tutsis had
better relations. The stink of patchouli oil and incense smoke soon morphed into the exhaust fumes of Volvos and Subarus followed by McMansions, high taxes, no-sprawl crowded developments, higher taxes, more shopping centers, even higher taxes—and then the Swiss Miss sitting in the governor ’s chair during the late 1980s put the kiss of death on the state. The Vermont ethos of helping one another morphed into taking from one to give to another—deserving or not. I would find living as a parasite on the earnings of others to be degrading. I was raised to believe socialism is slavery. In a time long ago, Vermonters fought against it. Now Vermont institutionalizes it. The Green Mountain State has mutated to the color pink. Slowly, the black ink on the state’s books has turned as red as Bernie’s signs. War came, yet again, to Vermont—this time, a culture war, a P.C. war as nasty as any shooting war. (It is as vicious and will become as bloody.) This new war now causes my leaving Vermont. But this time I knew it was a final farewell. Call it the OPM War, if you like. Vermont will lose this conflict just as the states of California, Michigan, New York and Massachusetts lost the war. Erecting the Catamount Curtain around the state will be necessary to retain what little business and capital remains here. It will suffice until the exit tax is collected at the People’s Progressive Gate at Brattleboro. (Major employment in Brattleboro is loitering at the city limits with handcuffs, waiting to arrest Bush-Cheney if either patriot shows up.) So, I’m now departing for a place where what is mine is mine, where I can donate my time and money to organizations that require recipients to do something for themselves before receiving. Heretofore, I haven’t mentioned herself, my better half, who is now working in our new state of of residence. She is much more liberal than one would believe; her antipathy with what is going on here in Vermont politics fooled me. It was the socialist exhuming of every dollar that finally did it. She has the money, not me. She’s the flatlander, not me. Her comments aren’t genteel for publishing; suffice it to say, from the Vermont Senate and House leadership on down, she deems there’s more intellect and wisdom in the ancient, metamorphic rocks of Camel’s Hump. I leave you with one last consideration: When you hear hoof beats, think horses, not unicorns! Yes, you have a better potential of getting it right. The Vermont Woodchuck www.nerepublican.com

THE EAGLE - 9
Racing
CVRA tracks switching to asphalt WEST HAVEN, Vt. – A new era of racing will begin on the Champlain Valley Racing Association in 2010, as both Albany-Saratoga and Devil's Bowl speedways will make the transformation from dirt to asphalt. Albany-Saratoga Speedway has already run two shows on its original asphalt surface, and is scheduled to be resurfaced beginning Nov. 9. A sub-base has been put down at Devil's Bowl, and the track will be paved in the spring. The transformation actually began as an experiment, when Albany-Saratoga Speedway promoter Bruce Richards decided to remove the clay in September and run some shows on the original asphalt surface. At that time, he also booked dates with three asphalt touring groups (American Canadian late models, ISMA supermodifieds and True Value/ROC asphalt modifieds) for races in the spring, and the plan was to put the clay back down in May 2010. But after discussions with his business partners, sponsors and race teams, the decision was made to make a complete change to asphalt at both tracks. “This year was really tough,” Richards said. “I can't tell you the time and effort that was put into track preparation this year, just to have it rain at 5 or 6 p.m. on a Friday night. After many, many years of working with the dirt deal, it's time to move on. “I'm really excited about the change,” he added. “We're opening up a new world of opportunities in regard to fans, race teams and sponsorship. By going asphalt, we're also going to be unique. There are a lot of dirt tracks in this area, but we will have the only show on asphalt, and we're going to be able to do some things the other tracks can't do.” Albany-Saratoga Speedway was built by Joe Lesik in 1965, and ran as an asphalt track from 1965 until 1976, when it was purchased by CVRA founder C.J. Richards, who switched to a clay surface for the 1977 season. Richards also carved Devil's Bowl out of Vermont farm land in the 1960s. The track had an asphalt surface for two years in the early 1970s before Richards went back to a clay surface in 1977 to conform both CVRA tracks to the same specifications. During its asphalt heyday, Albany-Saratoga Speedway drew the top NASCAR modified and sportsman competitors from throughout the Northeast, including Richie Evans, Jerry Cook, Freddy DeSarro, Eddie Flemke and Geoff Bodine. Bill Greco won the first race ever held at the speedway, on July 16, 1965, and Cook won the last asphalt race on Sept. 5,
1975. Will Cagle won the first race on the new dirt surface in 1977, and Ronnie Johnson has the distinction of winning the final dirt race, on Sept. 13. Albany-Saratoga has always lived up to its reputation as “The Great Race Place,” providing thrilling side-by-side racing involving some of the biggest names in stock race racing, including Brett Hearn, Ken Tremont Jr., Jack Johnson, Dave Lape and Lou Lazzaro. One of the biggest issues Bruce Richards will be attacking at Albany-Saratoga with the new asphalt surface will be tire wear, as competitors were used to running the same set of Goodyears for weeks on end on the dirt surface. “I've gotten assurances from Goodyear that they were going to take their very best asphalt product and put it on a dirt carcass,” said Richards. “I've been told that the asphalt product they're going to use is a proven repeater, which means it can repeat the same track times for five or six weeks. “We're going to test the Goodyears at Airborne Speedway, because the surface at Airborne is going to be duplicated at Albany-Saratoga next year. We're confident that the new Goodyears will be perfect for what we're going to do next year.” Albany-Saratoga will still be running 358 modifieds, budget sportsman, pro-street stocks, limited and mini/stocks next season. The sportsman class will be absorbed into the modified division, which had previously been announced, giving Albany-Saratoga one 358-modified division. Jerry Richards will take on the promoter's responsibilities at Devil's Bowl in 2010, while Sharon Richards will continue in her role as treasurer of the CVRA. “We're been involved in racing our whole lives, and we're excited about entering a new era,” said Bruce Richards. “Race teams will see minimal changes in our program next season, but anyone with concerns should call me.”

Women's Soccer to host NCAA Regional—watch live! Watch games live at: www.d3cast.com MIDDLEBURY — The Middlebury College women’s soccer team will make its fifth NCAA Tournament appearance this weekend when they host an NCAA Regional. The Panthers will take on Husson on Saturday, Nov. 14, at 11 a.m., while Wheaton meets Richard Stockton at 1:30 p.m. The winners will meet in the regional final on Sunday at 1 p.m. Tickets are priced at $6 for adults and $3/students each day. You can watch all three games live at www.d3cast.com. Middlebury enters the tournament with an overall record of 6-4 in NCAA Tournament play. The Panthers advanced to the quarterfinals in ’97, suffered a first-round loss in ’00, while losing in the sectionals in ‘04. Middlebury’s last appearance came in ’06 when they won an NCAA Regional before falling in the sectionals. Middlebury earned its way into the NCAA Tournament with an at-large bid after falling 3-2 to Williams in the NESCAC Championship game. Sixth-year head coach Peter Kim leads the team into the tournament with a career record of 66-24-12 (.706) entering weekend play. The Middlebury offense ranks second in the NESCAC with 2.24 goals/game this season after scoring just 1.19 goals/game a year ago. The defense has been solid this season, allowing just 0.78 goals/game, third in the NESCAC. Middlebury has 10 shutouts on the season, including a streak of almost 500 minutes without allowing a goal. Junior Annie Rowell has enjoyed a huge season offensively for the Panthers, scoring 11 goals to go along with a pair of assists for 24 points. Her .65 goals/game place her fourth among her NESCAC peers, while her 1.41 points/game place her sixth. Rookie Amy Schlueter (5-3-13) is next in scoring, followed by senior Margaret Owen (4-3-11). Rookie Rachel Madding (4-0-8), senior Paola Cabonargi (3-2-8) and firstyear player Hannah Newman (3-2-8) round out the leading scorers. Senior Anne Ford paces the team with four assists on the year. Defensively, seniors Anjuli Demers, Jenny Galgano and Valerie Christy anchor the back. In goal, Lauryn Torch has played 96% of the minutes, owning a 0.82 GAA with eight shutouts on the season. 2009 NCAA Women’s Soccer Regional •Saturday, Nov. 14 – Middlebury College Husson (15-5) vs. Middlebury (12-3-2) – 11:00 a.m. Richard Stockton (14-6-2) vs. Wheaton (17-3-2) – 1:30 p.m. •Sunday, Nov. 15 – Middlebury College Regional Final – 1 p.m.

$350 million earmarked for dairy relief
Vt. Gingerbread House Competition
President Barack Obama signed legislation last week to provide $350 million in emergency assistance for hardpressed dairy farmers. Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) sponsored an amendment that added the dairy funds to the Department of Agriculture appropriations bill. He joined the president at the White House for the Oval Office bill-signing ceremony. The measure provides $290 million for direct support to dairy farmers. Another $60 million will be used to purchase cheese and other dairy products for food banks and nutrition programs. Sanders and Sen. Patrick Leahy (D-Vt.) and Rep. Peter Welch (D-Vt.) said additional measures are needed to bring price stability to the dairy industry and to help preserve family farms. “Dairy farmers are in desperate need. We must help them as soon as possible,” said Sanders. Rep. Welch, co-chairman of the Congressional Dairy Farmers Caucus, said the measure will provide “much-needed temporary support to these hardworking, dedicated members of our community.” The average price farmers received for their milk fell this year to $11.30 per hundredweight, down from $19.30 in July 2008. It costs farmers at least $18 per hundredweight to produce milk. As prices plunged, family dairy farms in Vermont and around the country went out of business. Dairy farmers got a temporary boost from the Agriculture Department last July 31 when Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack – after meeting with the senators from Vermont and other dairy states – approved a three-month price hike that was expected to increase farmers’ revenue nationwide by $243 million.
MIDDLEBURY — The Vermont Folklife Center announces the 11th annual Vermont Gingerbread House Competition and exhibit to take place at our headquarters at 88 Main St. in Middlebury. The exhibit will open with a public reception on December 4th from 4-6 pm and will remain open every day until Dec. 21. Last year ’s event was a triumph in local creativity showcasing 55 unusual, whimsical, and delicious culinary entries from people of all ages. Included was an incredible range of interpretations of the term Gingerbread House, including such themes as gingerbread barns, tents, space ships, pickup trucks and even an aquarium with sheets of clear sugar as the glass. The hard work and creative energy is evident in each entry, and is a great source of joy and excitement to the nearly 4,000 visitors to this annual exhibit. Although participants are not limited to using only gingerbread in their constructions, each entry must be entirely edible above the base line and will be judged in one of the following categories: Professional, amateur, families with

THE EAGLE - 15
A Soviet favorite that’s good for you, comrade! By Dianne Lamb University of Vermont Extension Cabbage was the staple of the peasants of Russia in the years following the Russian revolution. And for good reason: The vegetable is easy to grow and loaded with nutrients. This fall season brings with it a taste for vegetables that are associated with cooler weather. One of the most common and versatile vegetables during this season of the year is cabbage which keeps well in cold storage. A member of the cruciferous family (broccoli, cauliflower, Brussels sprouts, and kale) cabbage is a nutritious, easily grown and easily stored vegetable here in the northeast. It is believed that the Romans introduced cabbage and it has become a popular vegetable in many world cultures. The word cabbage is an Anglicized form of the French word caboche, meaning "head". The hard-head form of cabbage that we are most familiar with is thought to have come to the North American continent, via the St. Lawrence River, by Jacques Cartier; he planted the vegetable in Quebec in 1541. From Canada
it spread to the American colonies. Cabbage has many positive nutritional attributes like vitamin C, fiber, folate, potassium, and vitamin K. Cabbage is low in calories, fat, cholesterol, and sodium. Red cabbage has almost twice as much vitamin C as green or Savoy cabbage. Cabbage also contains a class of phytochemicals in the glucosinolates family which can be helpful in fighting cancer cells in the body. One cup of raw chopped green cabbage contains 22 calories, 1 gram of protein, 5 grams of carbohydrate, 2 grams of dietary fiber, less than a gram of fat, no cholesterol, and 219 milligrams of potassium, 16 mg of sodium, 29 milligrams of Vitamin C, and 38 micrograms of folate. Cabbage can be cooked in a microwave oven. Cut a head of a cabbage into wedges and place them in a microwavable baking dish. Add 2 tablespoons water, vegetable broth, or chicken stock. For every 2 cups shredded cabbage, add 1/4-cup liquid. Cooking time for wedges is 5 to 7 minutes. Cooking time for shredded is 5 minutes. Be sure to stir the cabbage after 2-1/2 minutes. Try this recipe for coleslaw with added vegetables and fruit tossed in a low-fat dressing.
Confetti Apple Slaw 2 Tbsp. orange concentrate, defrosted 1 red apple, unpeeled, cored and diced 4 cups shredded cabbage 2 small onions, finely shredded (red or white) 1 red or green sweet pepper, thinly sliced 3 Tbsp. raisins 1 Tbsp. calorie-reduced mayonnaise 1/2 cup plain low-fat yogurt 1/2 tsp dry mustard 1/8 tsp. paprika 1/8 tsp freshly ground black pepper Directions: In a large bowl, stir together juice concentrate and diced apple. Add cabbage, onion, pepper, and raisins. In a small blow, stir together mayonnaise, yogurt, mustard, paprika, and pepper. Add to vegetable mixture. Cover tightly and refrigerate until ready to serve. Serves 8. Nutrition information per serving: 60 calories; fat 0 grams; cholesterol 0 grams; carbohydrate 13 grams; dietary fiber 2 grams; protein 2 grams; sodium 30 milligrams.
Circus Smirkus coming to Middlebury College student dies MIDDLEBURY — The circus comes to town on Friday, Nov. 13, when St. Mary’s School presents its grand circus show, developed with the guidance of Circus Smirkus Artistin-residence Rick Davis. The entire community is invited to attend the exciting performance, which will be held at 7 p.m., at the Middlebury Municipal Gym. The show, featuring the students from St. Mary’s, is the culmination of two weeks of training and rehearsal in circus arts, brought to the school by Vermont’s own Circus Smirkus. Artist-in-residence Rick Davis has integrated circus into many aspects of the school’s curriculum, from art to English to history, and of course, PE and drama. Working with teachers and school staff, Rick Davis and the kids have put together a full evening of fun, including displays of juggling, tumbling, human pyramids and general mayhem. With Rick Davis acting as ringmaster, the kids get a lot of chances to shine in the center ring. Circus Smirkus, based in Greensboro, has for 22 years brought its famous youth-only circus big-top tour to towns throughout New England, created summer memories for young campers at its summer camp, and conducted its school residency program. For more information or directions to the event,call 388-8392. Doors open at 6:30 p.m. and admission is free if you bring a smile.
BURLINGTON — A 21-year-old Champlain College sophomore died last week after visiting friends off campus. Champlain College President David Finney announced the tragedy to students, faculty and staff this morning, “It is my very sad duty to report the death of one of our students last night. Michael Parlapiano, a sophomore majoring in business, died after visiting friends off campus. Our hearts go out to Michael’s family and friends as we all grieve the loss of a promising member of our community.” Champlain College officials have spoken with his family in Montclair, N.J., to offer condolences and support at this very difficult time, according to Stephen Mease, public information and news director at Champlain College. Counseling support is available 24 hours a day for students, faculty and staff. The cause of the student’s death is being investigated by the Burlington Police Department. No additional information is available at this time, Mease said.

Do you have any tree stewards hanging around? If so, the Vermont Urban and Community Forestry Council wants to know. Each year, the council recognizes a new team of Vermont Tree Stewards and the council is seeking nominations for 2009. This is your opportunity to let the tree tenders in your community, the town forest stewards or the professionals who go out on a limb for trees know you applaud them. “These awards help us say thank you for their work to truly make Vermont’s communities green,” said Mike Fallis, council chairman. “Vermonters across the state are doing great work to enhance our state’s urban and community forests.” Awards will be given out in five categories: Community: A city or town in Vermont that has demonstrated outstanding commitment to, and achievement in, urban and community forestry. Practitioner: An individual who, through the course of his/her professional work, has contributed to the improvement of urban or rural landscapes in a community or who has created or administered a program that has benefited the urban and community forestry initiative throughout Vermont. Volunteer Group: An organization, team or ad hoc group who, through their volunteer efforts, has shown outstanding dedication and commitment in introducing or sustaining an urban and community forestry project within their community. Leader: An individual who, through their services to their community or organization, has shown leadership and dedication in carrying out a community or urban forestry objective. Youth/Student: Recognition of an individual or group, from elementary to college, who has contributed in a noteworthy way to an activity, publication or ceremony, or has shown, continued interest in the advancement of the goals of urban and community forestry. Provide a summary, which includes the work accomplished to justify the nomination for that given category and how it positively affected an urban and community project. Send nominations to Danielle Fitzko at 103 South Main St., 10 South, Waterbury 05671 or danielle.fitzko@state.vt.us. Awards will be presented at a statehouse ceremony in December.
Local banks easing up on SBA business loans MIDDLEBURY — Taxpayer-funded American Recovery and Reinvestment Act enhancements to U.S. Small Business Administration loan programs have led to a significant rebound in Vermont of SBA-backed loans for small businesses and greater access to much needed capital. As a result of the credit crunch, SBA lending significantly declined in the fall of 2008 and early 2009. Following the signing of the Recovery Act on Feb. 17, Vermont’s monthly loan volume remained relatively flat until mid-March when the number of loans began a sharp and steady climb from 13 loans in March to a high of 49 in September. By the close of the fiscal year on Sept. 30, the SBA Vermont District Office had achieved 128.39 percent of its loan goal, the highest in the country. With an original goal of $45,491,700, the SBA Vermont District Office closed FY09 with a total loan volume of $58,406,600, an increase of 28 percent over the same period last year. The top five SBA lenders are Chittenden Bank, Passumpsic Savings Bank, Community National Bank, Union Bank, and KeyBank, N.A. The banks are being recognized for their achievement in delivering SBA loan programs under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act.

Helping new farmers get off to the right start This fall and winter, the University of Vermont Extension Women's Agricultural Network will offer two online sessions of a course specifically designed to help aspiring and beginning farmers get off to the right start. Growing Places is a non-credit course designed for people who are considering starting an agricultural or natural resource-based business. It is open to everyone, and is relevant to all crop, livestock and value-added enterprises. “The course covered a lot of topics at a reasonable depth, giving us concrete information as well as a lot of food for thought,” said a recent Growing Places graduate. “Now I feel much more confident about what I need to do next and how I should operate my business.” Participants learn strategies for setting goals for their business, making decisions, and evaluating resources. Participants also learn the basics of farm financial management, marketing, and risk management. Through online discussion boards, participants interact with the instructor and other students. Videos provide opportunities to see how farmers, including several Growing Places graduates, are implementing what they learned through the class. Growing Places Courses will be offered as follows in the fall of 2009 and winter of 2010: •Fall 2009 Online Session, Starts Nov. 16; ends Dec. 21; •Winter 2010 Online Session; Starts Jan. 11; ends Feb. 22; For more information and to register, visit www.uvm.edu/wagn/. Tuition for the course is $135, or $100 for people who register by the early bird deadline of Dec. 15 for the winter session. The regular registration deadline is Dec. 31 for the winter session.

Happenings in Ilsley Chess Club Ilsley Public Library in Middlebury is launching a chess club with the help of Parker “Monty” Montgomery, who has successfully led chess clubs in other public libraries. This club will meet weekly in the Vermont Room at the Library. Parenting Collection Ilsley Public Library’s Youth Services department has completed the first wave of refurbishing our parenting collection. Over 120 new books have been ordered, and many have already arrived. The parenting collection is located in the youth services department, and it contains materials of useful to parents, caregivers and educators. Materials cover a broad range of topics, such as death, divorce, homeschooling, healthy eating, discipline and activities for kids. Also included in this section are books on specific concerns, such as dyslexia, aspergers syndrome, autism and sleep. The renewal of the parenting collection has been made possible through a grant from the Winnie Belle Learned Fund, which was established by Dr. Burnett Rawson in honor of Vermont educator Winnie Belle Learned. Drop-in Activities Through Nov. 14 children are welcome to stop by Youth services at Ilsley Public Library to make paper airplanes and measure how far they glide through the air. Youngsters are invited to record their results and leave their planes on display. From Nov. 16—28 the library will host a “Build a Bridge Challenge.” In the Youth Services department we’ll have a station set up for building a bridge with file cards. The challenge is to create a bridge and then see how much weight it will hold. Kids are invited to record their results and enter them into a prize drawing.

Shelburne, Charlotte and Hinesburg receive $22,350 HINESBURG — Families in Shelburne, Charlotte and Hinesburg who need help to buy food and pay for heating fuel this winter will find the Emergency Food Shelves, the Hinesburg Community Resource Center, Chittenden Community Action and local pastors able to provide that help thanks to grants from Shelburne Charlotte Hinesburg Interfaith Projects (SCHIP). The third cycle of grants for 2009 from the locally-based non-profit distributed $22,350 following discussion of grant applications at their October meeting. The SCHIP funds are raised by the sale of good used clothing and homegoods at the non-profit's SCHIP's Treasure Resale Shop on Shelburne Road in Shelburne village. As the economy continued to pressure many residents of the three towns, SCHIP received requests for over $25,500 in grants in time for the Sept. 30 deadline, and chose the grants they would make based on guidelines including commitment to service to residents of the three towns as well as the track record of the organization making the request. Size of grants in the current round ranged from $250 to $5,000. Grants to support programs that will benefit children were made to Shelburne Community School Quest for Excellence, and the Building Bright Futures of Chittenden County for their Welcome Baby Teas. The Hinesburg Artist Series received $900 to support a 2009 concert and provide free music workshops in Charlotte and Hinesburg schools. Pastors' discretionary funds in Charlotte and Shelburne, received grants, typically to meet the needs of parishioners, and in one interesting case, to provide funds for a pastor to assist with the purchase of seed corn for a local farmer. Before the current round of grant making, SCHIP had given a total of more than $180,000 since they first began making grants in April 2005. During those years, one-third of the grants have gone to food shelves and related agencies providing basics to those in need. Another large category is community projects which help communities at large such as funds for a thermal imaging device for Shelburne firefighters who share it with other towns, and auditorium enhancements at Champlain Valley Union High School. The mission of SCHIP, which was formed in 2003 by ten faith communities in the three towns, is to work together to raise funds for grants to improve the lives of neighbors and strengthen the communities.
Bridge From page 1 Douglas said both states are working to install temporary ferry service as close to the bridge as possible so that motorists can once again begin crossing Lake Champlain between Addison and Crown Point. Stanley Gee, acting commissioner of the New York State Department of Transportation, said, “Now that the analysis is completed and the bridge has been found unstable, we can work quickly to demolish the existing bridge and accelerate the process for building a permanent replacement. We look forward to restoring vehicle and pedestrian traffic across the lake. In order to preserve and protect the historically and environmentally sensitive areas on both side of Lake Champlain, we plan to build the replacement bridge as close to the existing location as is possible.” Both governors have emphasized that until a new bridge can be built, a temporary new ferry service should be established as quickly as possible. To that end, they noted that all of the required environmental documentation will be submitted to the appropriate federal agencies early this week, so that construction of new ferry docks can begin as soon as possible. Last month, officials announced transportation alternatives to cross Lake Champlain. Those alternatives include a free ferry service between Ticonderoga and Shoreham, Vt., as well as free ferry service at Lake Champlain Transportation's ferry service at the Essex/Charlotte crossing. Additionally, a free express bus service now brings commuters to three major employers in Vermont, while a pedestrian ferry service was established north of the Lake Champlain Bridge between Westport, and Basin Harbor.
Ticonderoga - Shoreham bridge being considered TICONDEROGA — According to comments made by N.Y. DOT officials at a public meeting Oct. 26, bridge planners are leaning toward a Ticonderoga-Shoreham bridge to replace the now closed Lake Champlain-Crown Point Bridge. The bridge was closed indefinitely Oct. 16 due to severe structural problems. The Ticonderoga-Shoreham proposal surprised some residents who commented that such an idea will create more problems to residents on the Vermont side of the bridge. Vermont and New York officials were unavailable to comment on the suggested Ticonderoga to Shoreham bridge. Several public meetings planned may help clarify the thinking of DOT officials—plus, what’s driving the TiconderogaShoreham proposal as opposed to the current Crown PointAddison established route.
