MIDDLEBURY | Last summer, Middlebury residents Farhad and Amtul Khan fulfilled a lifelong dream and a spiritual obligation: they completed their pilgrimage to Mecca.

The couple discussed their trek during a special presentation titled, “Hajj: A Spiritual Journey,” held at the Lawrence Memorial Library in Bristol last week. The event was sponsored by One World Library Project.

The Khans are active members of the Burlington-based Islamic Society of Vermont (ISVT), which currently has roughly 3,500 members from such countries as Bosnia, Somalia, India and Iraq. The Khans originally hail from India. 16 other members of ISVT joined the Khans on their pilgrimage.

The pilgrimage to Mecca, also known as the Hajj, is an elaborate journey taken by millions of Muslims each year during the

last month on the Islamic calendar. It involves a number of ritual practices and a great deal of tradition.

During the presentation in Bristol, the Khans shared images of their journey as explained the details of their pilgrimage. The program was interactive as several audience members asked questions.

Farhad and Amtul Khan are owners of One Dollar Market on Court Street (U.S. Route 7) in Middlebury, and parents of three children.

Farhad is a past president of the Islamic Society of Vermont and also served as a vice president of Kids4Peace Vermont, an interfaith youth movement dedicated to turning divided societies into communities of lasting peace by bringing together Muslim, Jewish, Christian and other youth for summer and school-year programs.

Both Farhad and Amtul are currently studying at Community College of Vermont. Farhad is also a Middlebury selectman. » Hajj Cont. on pg. 5

BUDDY

Buddy is a handsome and fluff y dog who can’t get enough affection. He had a rough start in life down in North Carolina but was rescued and brought to Vermont by his former owners.

Giving him up was the hardest thing they had to do, but unfortunately their life circumstances changed and they were left with no choice.

Buddy is definitely a family “man” and forms strong bonds with the humans in his household. Sweet and attention-loving towards people, he isn’t able to be around other dogs, cats or small animals.

Buddy’s former owner had this to say: “He just hates other animals like I hate Brussels sprouts. He is the best dog in the world except for that one minor character flaw. He is my cholesterol dog (LDL): loyal, dopey and lazy.”

House trained and a quiet couch potato, Buddy’s ideal home would be with a relaxed, adult family who lived in a more rural location so that he can go on walks and not have to worry about interacting with other dogs.

Trained to sit, stay, heel and walk on leash, Buddy would be a wonderful companion canine for a calm and nurturing home. He enjoys stuffed toys but otherwise is low-key and doesn’t engage in rigorous play.

Buddy adores car rides and will happily relax in the back seat while you cruise. So, if you’re on the lookout for a buddy like Buddy, come meet him and see if you can offer him the happy ending he needs and deserves. ■

Kelley added that Vermont will partner with the SANS Institute of North Bethesda, Maryland, to bring the Girls Go CyberStart challenge to Vermont for a second year.

“Girls Go CyberStart is a free, forward-thinking cybersecurity skills program designed to educate and inspire high school girls about the opportunities and rewards of a career in cybersecurity. In the program, students complete games and challenges in which they learn and apply cybersecurity skills including forensics, open-source intelligence, cryptography and web application security,” according to a news release by Kelley.

The Vermont CyberPatriot program is sponsored by the Green Mountain Chapter of Vermont’s Air Force Association which hosted several cyber training days in conjunction with Champlain College.

Another effort, the CyberGenerations program is geared for senior citizens and provides resources which can help seniors identify potential cyber threats aimed at them or other family members. ■

According to a news statement by Rebecca Kelley of Gov. Scott’s office, “teams act as the I.T. (information technology) departments of small companies or organizations to find and resolve vulnerabilities on virtual images, tracking their progress on a live score board.

“This is the seventh year Vermont schools have participated with competitors, including Champlain Valley Union High School, Champlain Valley Homeschoolers, Green Mountain Civil Air Patrol Composite Squadron, Harwood Union High School, Northfield High School and South Burlington High School.”

“Seeing the students in action, you could really tell that this curriculum was engaging for them and has taught them problemsolving skills in cybersecurity,” said Vermont’s Chief Information Security Officer Nicholas Andersen. “This is exactly the type of opportunity that our students in Vermont need today, and I hope to see other schools join this program soon.”

Sneaky tax takes some by surprise

By Lou Varricchio EDITOR

MIDDLEBURY | Th is year, some Vermonters are paying what amounts to a new, stealth income tax.

That’s the word from Vermont tax expert Steve Cairns, owner of Advisor Tax Services in Stowe. He says some of his clients are finding out that a significant tax increase is lurking in this year’s tax filing.

Recent changes to U.S. tax law have prompted a $32 million increase in Vermont taxes, he said.

“There is a subtle but dramatic change to the income tax law that is now resulting in a noticeable increase in Vermont taxable income for many taxpayers,” Cairns told The Eagle last month. “The change is the removal of all federal deductions that remain for federal taxpayers.

“Virtually everyone that I have talked to, including legislators, had no clue these changes

were coming,” Cairns said.

Cairns discovered the stealth change when he examined several documents prepared by the Vermont Legislative Joint Fiscal Office — but few know about the increase.

“It was never revealed directly what the impact that this simple change would have on many taxpayers,” he said.

In Vermont, changes to state itemized deductions have been going on for some time. In 2009, Vermont limited the state income tax deduction to $5,000 on the income tax return. In 2015, the Legislature limited the deduction again.

“In 2015, Vermont removed the deduction entirely, then capped the remaining deductions to 2.5 times the federal standard deduction,” Cairns said. “Last year, they got rid of it all. It was a three-step process.

“I think that’s why you didn’t hear a peep from the Vermont legislature about the SALT [state and local tax] deduction at the federal level like we heard from New York, New Jersey,

» Dairy farm award Cont. from pg. 1 The award is presented annually by University of Vermont (UVM) Extension and the Vermont Dairy Industry Association (VDIA). Nominated farms are evaluated on their herd, pasture and crops management; milk production; land stewardship and environmental practices; commitment to promoting the dairy industry; and overall excellence in dairying, among other criteria. Judges are past award winners.

The award is an outgrowth of the New England Green Pastures Program, which started in 1947 as a challenge by then Governor Charles Dale of New Hampshire to the other New England governors as to which state had the greenest pastures.

Illinois and California. They were panicking, all trying to come up with various Mickey Mouse ways of making charitable contributions instead of paying their property taxes.”

Cairns said taxpayers who itemize their tax deductions — those who don’t take the standard deduction — can deduct what they’ve paid in certain state and local taxes. These deductions include property, income and sales taxes.

But in February of 2018, Cairns got an email from Vermont Tax Commissioner Kaj Samsom that indicated an elimination of itemized deductions.

“The proposal to get rid of the deduction seems to have come from the administration,” Cairns said. “The Vermont law effectively begins the Vermont tax calculation with federal taxable income, a number that increases significantly for most taxpayers in 2018 as a result of the federal changes.”

Some residents have already found out how much more they will be paying when

From the editor

Working together in Montpelier Several weeks ago now, Gov. Phil Scott laid out his budget priorities for Vermont ranging from a vaping tax and clean water funding to electric vehicles and Act 250 exemptions for developers. Scott presented a balanced fiscal year 2020 budget that is up slightly from 2018’s proposal of nearly $6 billion.

While the governor struck a mostly optimistic tone, he didn’t say all is rosy in the Green Mountain State. In particular, Scott sounded the alarm about the state’s aging labor force, saying that “every county except Chittenden has seen a decline in the number of people working. Every county, including Chittenden, has fewer people available for work.”

With a super majority opposition in the House,

it seems hard to imagine the moderate-Republican Scott getting his way, yet, Democrats and Progressives recognize the decline in working Vermonters although their passion for more spending on social programs doesn’t seem to abate despite the working-class (tax-paying) drain.

Thus, Scott has emphasized the need for House, Senate and the governor’s office to work together to improve the financial and social problems.

“We can recognize Vermonters call for balance, for civility and for us to work together,” Scott said.

“And we can commit to solving the problems ahead of us and helping the people who sent us here to do so. If we do, we will make a difference

in the lives of Vermonters, and our actions will prove that the best work still comes when we’re guided by our core beliefs in freedom and unity.”

At one point near the conclusion of Scott’s recent budget address, a heckler in the assembly interrupted him. It was unclear to many in attendance what the protester actually said. But Scott responded to the heckler’s garbled shouting with a quip about maintaining “civility” in the Statehouse. Legislators on both sides of the aisle responded with thunderous applause. With that incident, there’s reason to still hope something might get accomplished in Montpelier.

Guest viewpoint

Single-member districts will strengthen democracy

By John McClaughry GUEST COLUMNIST

Kudos to the Vermont Senate for passing a bill requiring that senate districts “shall have a maximum of three members.” Interestingly, two of the three sponsors of S.11 (Senators Ashe and Sirotkin) are elected from the Chittenden District, the only district with more than three members.

The main reason Vermont has one 6-member Senate district, three three-member districts, six two-member districts and threesingle member districts is historical.

Because of dissatisfaction with the performance of the one-town, one-vote House, and growing population disparities between Burlington and tiny towns like Baltimore and Stannard, the voters in 1836 adopted a constitutional amendment creating a senate.

It was viewed as a body representing counties, although counties were little more than judicial districts. After the courts ordered one person, one vote redistricting in the 1960s, the Vermont Constitution was again amended in 1974 to provide for senate districts roughly equal in population.

Ever since, the decennial redistricting of the Senate has posed unavoidable problems, largely because of shifting populations.

e m i T

Capsule

The spiritualist antics of the allegedly clairvoyant Eddy Brothers of Rutland County brought many famous 19th century personalities to the Eddy’s farmhouse in the town of Chittenden in the 1870s. Famous theosophists such as Helena Blavatsky and Civil War officer, turned Buddhist, Henry Steel Olcott (pictured) spent time in Vermont observing the supernatural goings-on at the Eddy house. The farmhouse, scene of séances and ghostly apparitions, still stands today as a private ski club.

The Constitution now says the districts must “adhere to boundaries of counties and other existing political subdivisions.”

There are now 13 senate districts for electing 30 senators from 14 counties. Rather than do the sensible thing – forget about largely fictitious counties and elect one senator from each five contiguous equal-population House districts – the legislature has resorted to all sorts of awkward improvisations.

The most glaring is the six-member Chittenden District (minus Colchester, tacked on to Grand Isle).

Since the six senators are elected at-large, it’s almost certain they will all be Democrats and conceivably all from Burlington itself. The senate bill would, most likely, result in three Democratic/Progressive Senators from that Burlington core and the other three – including possibly a Republican or two – from the “outer ring” district.

Even the operations director of the Democratic Party was quoted as observing, rightly, that “Vermont is very vulnerable to a legal challenge. The argument is, that a vote in one district counts more than a vote in another.”

That’s true, and a legal challenge could produce bizarre results.

One egregious example emerged from a deadlocked redistricting battle in Illinois in 1964. A Federal

court mandated the notorious “bedsheet ballot.” Voters were handed a 33-inch long paper ballot and asked to choose 177 House members at large from 236 listed candidates.

Aside from arguments based on inequalities in voting power, there is another subtle but important argument against any multimember district, House or Senate. Those districts let incumbent protection defeat voter choice.

Consider this, in the three member district. Senators A, B and C are running for reelection against D, E and F. Now suppose senator A is extremely controversial for his or her views and votes on a hot issue in the district. Challenger D is highly motivated to oust A. But D is aware that many of A’s likely voters, who each have three votes, might also cast one of their three votes for D for other reasons, such as geography, name recognition, gender, party, and qualifications.

D realizes that his attack on A would alienate A’s supporters. They would vote for A and two others – either incumbents or challengers - who steered clear of challenging any of their fellow candidates. D figures that his chances of winning will be lower – possibly fatally lower — if he attacks A. So D joins E and F in avoiding criticism of any of the incumbents’ votes or misdeeds.

Bottom line: instead of an election giving the voters a choice to hold an incumbent accountable for his or her performance, the multimember district gives a strong incentive to all candidates to avoid any head-to-head challenge. If you wonder why we do this, bear in mind that every districting plan was designed by and approved by … incumbents.

By contrast, there are three single-member senate districts: Orange, Grand Isle and Lamoille.

If voters in those districts disapprove of their one senator, they can vote to replace him or her with a challenger. That’s the way democracy is supposed to work.

If an incumbent senator really believes in democracy, he or she should summon the courage to put his or her own record before the voters, and defend it in debate with a contrary-minded challenger.

By all means get rid of the sixmember district. Then get rid of the three- and two-member districts as well, in both the Vermont Senate and House. Or at the very least, make candidates in multimember districts file and run for “Position 1,” or “Position 2” which would give the voters the same clear choice. ■ - John McClaughry is vice president of the Ethan Allen Institute. He was a senator from 1989 to 1992, and in that latter year urged the senate to split his own two-member district into two single-member districts.

MIDDLEBURY | Although it was cold and blustery outside last week, inside it was positively tropical as 29 local 4-H club members took part in the annual Addison County 4-H Foods Day, which featured a Hawaiian luau theme this year.

The 4-H’ers gathered at Middlebury Union Middle School in Middlebury Feb. 23 for labs, a culinary contest and buffet lunch. University of Vermont (UVM) Extension 4-H in Addison County sponsored the event, which was open to any 4-H’er with an interest in foods and nutrition.

Susan Bodette, a nutrition educator with the University of Vermont (UVM) Extension Expanded Food and Nutrition Education Program, presented a nutrition lab where the youths learned about healthy food choices and portion size. They also played volleyball with others in their age group as part of an exercise lab, which focused on the importance of staying active.

In the foods lab, the 4-H’ers prepared dishes for the buffet lunch with the help of 4-H leaders Heather Mattison, Whiting; Janet Piper, Bridport; and Melinda Piper, Sudbury. The older 4-H’ers, grades 8-12, made chicken kabobs, grades 5-7 prepared BBQ pork wonton tacos and grades

‘Riders’: A look at ACTR’s community service “Riders” is a series of vignettes or character sketches of individuals I came to know well while working as a volunteer transit driver for ACTR, Addison County Transit Resources.

By Tom Pinsonneault The destination of each drive is • GUEST COLUMNIST • predicated on the individual needs of the riders. ACTR volunteers may be off to a doctor’s appointment in Burlington or grocery shopping in Middlebury or to Boston for a surgical consult.

These trips, as well as trips for other drivers, are made possible only through the hard work and dedication of ACTR personnel such as Stephanie Stearns (office management), Pamela White Spatafora (program administrator/volunteer coordinator) and Amy Buxton (dispatcher).

There are other staff members at ACTR headquarters located on Creek Road in Middlebury; they work on behalf of the county community and riders, matching client to driver to destination. It is worth noting that because of ACTR the quality of life in the local community is greatly enhanced.

Most of the time this writer was not privy to the ailments ACTR clients are being treated for; he just drives and talks and listens. As a volunteer, the writer finds this work, in spite of the long hours, tremendously satisfying and personally rewarding. The vignettes or character sketches are in no particular order and personal identities and locations will be purposefully obscured.

Listening to and conversing with the individuals who ride has given this writer pause to consider the human condition, not to explain or try to understand

They struggle quietly as they try to pull their legs into my car. They struggle trying to exit my vehicle; many times waiving off an offer of assistance. Some walk in pain with every bodily movement. Others simply need a ride because they are unable to drive.

Riders often smile and laugh: for everything they do they accomplish on their own. They walk among us as neighbors, acquaintances, friends and community members from all ages and walks of life. All

Upcoming issues of The Eagle will take you on the road for a first-hand glimpse into the lives of the “Riders.” ■ Note: Tom Pinsonneault is an Orwell-based writer and guest columnist for The Eagle.

Spartans win Mansfield Divisional title From Campus News Reports CASTLETON UNI V ERSIT Y

Castleton University’s Men’s Nordic Ski Team placed first in sprint and classic. The men clinched the Mansfield Divisional Title. Pictured: Castleton’s John Paluszek skiing at North Creek, New York last week. Photo by Castelton University

CASTLETON | Led by first-place finishes in the 1.5-kilometer sprint and the 10-kilometer classic, the Castleton University Men’s Nordic Ski Team earned the Eastern Collegiate Ski Conference Mansfield Division Championship at the Gore Mountain Ski Bowl last weekend.

Competing in the 1.5-kilometer skate sprint – day one of the divisional championships – Castleton claimed the team title by placing its skiers in first, third and fourth for a total of eight points. Second to the Spartans was Clarkson (13), followed by the University of Vermont (38) and Cornell (48). It is the sixth consecutive first-place result for Castleton in the team competition.

John Paluszek raced through the brackets, recording the top time in his quarterfinal group with a 3:12.31. Continuing through to the semifinals, Paluszek recorded the top overall split of the two groups before knocking eight

seconds off of his previous time in the championship race.

Recording a final time of 2:55.50, he finished more than a second ahead of the next competitor.

Placing third, sixth and seventh, respectively, Andrew Doherty, Devin Perry and Dave Harvey followed a similar path as Paluszek. Each of the trio advanced out of their selected quarterfinals with a top-2 time and proceeded to record a time in the upper half of the semifinal groups.

Continuing dominance at Gore, Doherty and Paluszek were the top two skiers recording 28:49 and 29:44 splits, respectively. Backing them up, Perry put together yet another strong performance finishing in fifth overall – out of 40 racers.

Rounding out the scoring group for Castleton, Dave Harvey (7), Alex Williams (17), Jared Wheeler (26) and Keegan Cummings (34) placed inside the top 35.

Men’s nordic skiing returned to action as the Spartans competed in the ECSC Regional Championships back home at Mountain Top Inn and Resort in Rutland County. ■

Plattsburgh defeats No. 10 Middlebury women, 3-1 From Campus News Reports MIDDLEBURY COLLEGE

MIDDLEBURY | Middlebury College wrapped up the regular season, suffering a 3-1 setback at third-ranked Plattsburgh State (23-2-0) on Tuesday. The 10th-ranked Panthers (14-7-3) opened the NESCAC Tournament.

The teams skated through a scoreless first period with special teams playing a big role.

Middlebury had three power plays, while the Cardinals had a pair. On the first Panther advantage in the opening minutes, Plattsburgh State’s Mackenzie Millen had a shorthanded breakaway against Middlebury’s Anna Goldstein, but the netminder kicked our her right pad for the save. The best chance for the Panthers came just past the midway point of the frame when Madie Leidt cut to the slot, only to have her scoring bid thwarted by goalie Kassi Abbott.

The hosts netted the game’s first goal just

1:33 into the middle stanza when Kaitlin Drew-Mead scored on a breakaway. Less than a minute later, the Cardinals nearly doubled the lead on a 2-on-1, but Goldstein turned aside Nicole Unsworth’s bid from the left circle.

Middlebury started the third period with 1:49 of power-play time, but was unable to even the score against the nation’s top penalty-killing unit. At 6:48 of the period, the hosts doubled their lead when Abby Brush slipped a shot through the legs of Goldstein on another breakaway.

The Panthers cut the margin in half with a goal at the 15:13 mark. Katie Hargrave collected the puck behind the Cardinal net and sent a pass to Anna Zumwinkle at the top of the right circle. Zumwinkle wristed a shot through traffic for her fourth marker of the season. ■ Middlebury’s Anna Goldstein made a season-high 42 saves against Plattsburgh State.
