Bomb threats part of hoax

Serving Addison, Rutland & Chittenden Counties

VERMONTERS DISPLAY THE SPIRIT OF GIVING » Spirit of giving Cont. on pg. 13

By Lou Varricchio EDITOR

MIDDLEBURY| Starting Dec. 13, the Vermont State Police received various reports of bomb threats being received in the state. As of late last week, investigators knew of at least 15 threats, received by email messages, including businesses, schools, municipal offices as well as private individuals who have not been identified by law enforcement authorities. The threats were later reported by the FBI as part of a nationwide hoax. Threats were also made in Canada. According to the Adam Silverman, of the Vermont Department of Public Safety (DPS), as of Dec. 13 when this issue of the Eagle was in production, threats have been received by the University of Vermont in Burlington, Garvey Auto in Rutland, private individuals living in Middlebury, employees of the Tarrant Foundation in Winooski, employees of the Ski and Ride School at Sugarbush-West Hill Inn in Warren, employees of the Century Arms in Fairfax, the South Burlington Police Department, Groton Town Hall officials and private individuals in Montpelier. Silverman first reported several of these bomb threats, made around the state, on Dec. 13. The DPS news release stated that the threats appeared to be “linked to a coordinated series threats being made across the United States and in Canada.” ■

MIDDLEBURY | Last week, we asked Addison County Sen. Chris Bray (D) about the upcoming legislative session in Montpelier. This week, we talk with the first of two Rutland County and Addison County Republicans about their perspectives. According to Rutland County Sen. Brian Collamore, reading the 2018 election tea leaves shows that even the normally rockbound conservative

bastion of Rutland County has shifted left, in a more liberal direction. “There were Vermonters expressing their dislike of President Trump (in the election). I think they voted that way,” Collamore said. “That’s not to take anything away from Democratic Sen. Cheryl Hooker (as I think she’ll do fine), but I was a little surprised that we didn’t return three Republican senators from the county to Montpelier. I think there was some anti-Trump sentiment expressed, but I was more surprised the second amendment (gun rights) folks didn’t have a better showing. “If they were sincerely that upset with the governor (over gun control), I would have expected more of a closer gubernatorial race which didn’t turn out to be true. So, I wonder how many of those folks voted. That probably would have helped the three GOP candidates here in Rutland County.” Collamore confirmed that there has been more of a liberal move within Rutland County. “I don’t know if that’s a sign of more liberal folks moving in or if we didn’t

Peter Quinn By Lou Varricchio EDITOR

VERGENNES | The Vergennes Union High School (VUHS) community, as well as Commodore basketball fans, came out last Thursday to honor the memory of basketball coach and counselor Peter Quinn. Quinn died at the age of 69 the previous weekend. The celebration of Coach Quinn’s life was held at the Commodores first basketball game of the 2018-19 season. VUHS alumnus and former Commodore athlete Ben Epstein started the game against BFA-Fairfax by reading a touching letter prepared by Quinn’s widow and two sons. “He loved being able to mold players into an image of what he valued on the court,” Epstein read. “Pete urged his players to find their passion for the sport and elevate themselves as teammates.” Born in Massachusetts, Quinn was assistant coach when the VUHS boys team won the 2001 state championship. The girls took basketball championships in 2005 and 2006. And there were other championships under Quinn’s tutelage. Perhaps the sweetest of all testimonies for Quinn’s school leadership both on and off the court was the Commodores opening season victory of BFA-Fairfax, 58-52. ■

energize our side enough to vote,” he said. “We’ve been pretty common sense, pretty conservative, and pretty Republican here, but it didn’t happen that way. And the City of Rutland lost GOP Doug Gauge’s House seat to Democrat William Knott, an alderman...” Collamore said that the 2018 election showed that all of Vermont, not just Rutland County, is continuing to move more in a more liberal direction. “While we’d like a little more balance, I think in the upcoming legislative session we’ll see that (Democratic) Bluedogs will become way important than they have been in the past,” he said. “Especially in the House where there are now 43 Republicans and a 51 total is needed to sustain a veto, so there will be a move to bring more independents and more moderate Democrats into the fold on some, not all, issues. I think Democratic legislators such as Mazza, Starr and Rogers are the (Bluedog) moderates I am thinking about.” Collamore said that he was shocked by the defeat of interim GOP Sen. David Souchy of Killington in the August 2018 primary. » Montpelier Cont. on pg. 2

MIDDLEBURY | Looking for a dog with as much potential as a brand new day? Look no further. Trace is smart as a whip, loyal, loving and really enjoys playing with other dogs. Like anything worthwhile, Trace will require an investment from his new family; time, training, patience, lots of long walks and a sense of humor will pay off in spades! He is currently living in a foster home as life in the shelter was far too confining for him and he had become stressed and mouthy as he tried to express himself saying, “Help me! I need to get out of here and play.” ■

I’m a playful fella, and I have to admit that tennis balls and squeaky toys are my favorites. Oh, I do love the joy of toys. I’m smart and I already know sit and I do like treats (I’m very gentle with them) so I hope my new family will teach me more commands and maybe even some tricks. I walk nicely on a leash, and I have a spring in my step so I’m looking forward to walks and outdoor adventures with my new family.

If you think I would be a nice addition to your family, you can come by and visit with me. I will be waiting. ■

Collamore stressed that the upcoming session will show that, with both chambers having a super majority, there will be a renewed effort to push through paid family leave, the $15 minimum wage and the carbon tax. “It will be the minority party’s job to make sure we hear both sides of the issue. We need to point out our side. I think the governor will never sign a carbon tax bill. But if vetoes are overturned it will be a challenging session. We don’t have a good balance in Montpelier. We’ll need the Bluedogs,” Collamore said of the Republicans. ■ Next week: Rep. Harvey Smith talks about the 2019 legislative session.

“David was sworn in back in June 2017 and you assumed people knew him,” he said. “I know Dave worked hard on the campaign, but it wasn’t enough. He finished last in the primary; I was shocked, absolutely shocked.” “2018 was all about the economy,” Collamore said. “People are having a tough time getting their paycheck to cover all the weekly, monthly expenses, let alone saving anything for the future. The governor has begun a great process to make Vermont more affordable. So, yes, the election was all about the economy here in Rutland County.”

From the editor

Cloudy headlights a safety concern Among the numerous reasons why collectors like those old-time classic cars is that, back in the day, automobile headlights were made of good, old-fashioned glass. But today, like everything else, petrochemical products rule the world of manufacturing. We’re stuck with those ugly plastic headlights, and we’re sad to say, manufacturers have no intention of changing them due to ever increasing government regulations to make vehicles lighter, fuel efficient and streamlined. Now, new research reported by the New England chapter of the Automobile Association of America (AAA) reveals that clouded or yellowed headlights generate only 20 percent of the amount of light that new headlights do; this leads to dangerous nighttime driving conditions. An AAA official said last week that the decrease in light is caused by a chemical reaction with sunlight (mostly ultraviolet rays) damaging

those pricey, scratch-prone protective plastic coatings; thus, discoloration occurs and considerably diminishes the headlight’s power. “Walk through any parking lot and it is evident that deteriorated headlights are a problem for most vehicle owners,” said Pat Moody, director of public affairs for AAA Northern New England. “Headlights on the road in the U.S., even when new, don’t produce enough lighting, so any reduction in performance is a real safety issue.” Moody said that AAA conducted research using an accredited laboratory to test headlights from two “popular sedans” 11 years old. But wait, we didn’t know sedans were even still popular, at least according to GM CEO Mary Barra. No matter, results from the degraded headlights were measured against new headlights. According to Moody, “Research revealed that deteriorated headlights, when used on low beam,

Looking at a carbon tax

The Dec. 11 Rutland Herald editorial, titled “Classic Conundrum,” asks whether Vermont should tax fossil fuels By Guy Page • STATE HEA DLINERS • as “the best, most effective way to limit greenhouse gas emissions” or pass because it’s “a tough sell,” especially among low-income rural Vermonters. This kind of win/lose thinking begs for a more positive approach. The question seems to assume that for the climate to win, our rural poor must lose. I believe human activity is warming the climate. I believe Vermonters would prefer to do our bit for greenhouse gas reduction without punishing the rural poor. Carbon taxation, even the supposedly poor-friendly version, is regressive, unjust, impractical, and in a voting society, unsustainable. Just

look at France; how’s that working out for Emmanuel Macron? Vermont can reduce energy related emissions and enhance prosperity. To name just four examples of having it both ways, we can support existing regional nuclear power, buy more hydro power from Quebec, slow expansion of in-state solar/wind generation and utility-scale expensive battery storage and grow more trees. The 2019 Vermont Legislature could endorse Gov. Phil Scott’s August support with four other governors of nuclear power as an affordable, emissions-free source of regional energy security. In 2017 Millstone in Connecticut and Seabrook in New Hampshire generated 26,000 gigawatt hours of electricity – four times the 6,500 gigawatt hours for all New England grid-tied solar and wind power combined! Yet nuclear power is at risk because

By failing to properly light roadways at moderate speeds, a pedestrian or animal may not become visible to a driver until it’s too late to stop.” Moody said that because modern headlights are made of plastic (and exposure to the sun’s UV rays over time breaks down the plastic coating), causing discoloration that obscures the light produced, signs of deterioration appear as soon as just three years. So, before you take to the roads this holiday season, make sure your headlights are as clear as a bell on Christmas morning. And say something to your favorite dealer that auto and truck manufacturers need to get back to headlight basics, that is, with glass not plastic. – The Eagle ■

natural gas can make power even more cheaply. But natural gas supply is finite, especially when more is needed to keep homes warm during cold snaps. Nuclear is New England’s best environmental and economic alternative to dirty, expensive “backup” coal and oil-fired electricity. Second: Vermont can rethink its fixation on localvore electricity and buy more low-cost, low-carbon hydro power from Quebec. This may require a new high-voltage transmission line directly from Quebec, or through another state. Third: The State of Vermont can refuse to keep bidding up the bad poker hand it has been dealt by the backers of distributed renewable power. Utilities want to “double down” on expensive instate intermittent solar/wind power and charge more for even more expensive “back up” battery storage. Fourth: Rather than spend money storing electricity in more batteries, Vermont should make money by

storing carbon in more trees. Trees eat carbon and turn it into oxygen. They have financial value for carbon storage, as the Nature Conservancy discovered in July when it reaped up to $2 million over a decade by selling the carbon credits from 11,000 acres on Burnt Mountain in the Northeast Kingdom to the climate conscious prone California. It just so happens that many cashpoor rural Vermonters are tree-rich. Some environ-entrepreneur could do well by doing good by turning the Back 40’s carbon-eating value into cash for thousands of Vermont homeowners. Vermont could become a state where money grows on trees. And because young, growing trees (like people) need to eat more than their elders, carbon-credit forestry could actually favor acreage under active harvesting and replanting. To paraphrase Sarah Palin: Plant, baby, plant. ■

Tale of the hunter By Tom Pinsonneault GUEST COLUMNIST

Squinting into the newly risen sun, I determined that the hunter’s truck parked at the side of the road across from my house belonged to an acquaintance. In that split second of recognition a puff of my breath foggedup the window at the head of my bed so I rolled over, closed my eyes and enjoyed the aroma of freshly brewed coffee as it wandered from the kitchen into the bedroom. Today is the first day of rifle season in Vermont. I could be out there. I could be out there hunting and stalking and doing all that hunting stuff. Maybe, I should have gotten up at 4 a.m. and driven to some place where I think deer like to go in order to get shot, preferably by me. I could park my car at the side of the road and trek into the wilderness and be in position before the sun rises because that’s the time all deer like to walk right into the hunter’s crosshairs. I need a cup of coffee. I will take it to the recliner parked at the living room window and keep an eye on the truck. Reflecting upon my upbringing in Bennington County, it sometimes puzzles me why I have no real desire to hunt anything anymore.

Guest column

I started on the path to becoming a great hunter at a very early age (rabbit hunting as you may have read). In my youth I was always playing soldiers and cowboys and Indians with other kids in the neighborhood. Consequently, I became familiar with firearms ranging from six-shooters to Tommy Guns and submachine guns. A fancy riverboat belt that sported a buckle concealing a pop-out derringer (purchased at Fishman’s on Main Street) was also in my arsenal. I owned a BB gun when I was nine years old and went rabbit hunting with my father and brother out on East Road at least once! My credential seemed ﬂawless! But, alas and alak. My dreams of renown as an expert hunter and slayer of deer were to be dashed by the cruel hand of fate. During my teen years, Colgate Mountain was my favorite hunting grounds. I spent more than a few weekends hunting squirrel and partridge there with Curt LeBlanc and other high school buddies. But when it came to hunting deer, I was outta luck, Chuck. Not a deer to be seen, ever. My Dad hunted deer for 36 years before he bagged his first and only deer. This should have been a tip-oﬀ for me. He trapped and hunted in the spooky Bennington Triangle for years as well as surrounding woodlands. He knew the woods like the back of his hand. My parents would scout the deer every day after work at Ben-Mont Mills when they went for their drives along the back roads. If anyone knew where the deer were, they knew.

I asked him why it took him so many years to get his deer and he responded by saying, “You know Tommy, your mother and I would sit in the woods and all day long, every day of the season and not move a muscle. The deer would walk right up to us. I could touch them with the barrel of my gun.” “Why didn’t you shoot them?” I asked. He replied saying: “Your mother would always say, ‘Oh, Henry don’t shoot the poor deer. See how cute they are and look at those big brown eyes.’ And I wouldn’t shoot. This went on for 35 years until one day mom couldn’t go with me. I wasn’t in the apple orchard more than ten minutes when this buck came wandering by and, well you know, BANG.” ■ Native Vermonter Tom Pinsonneault lives in Orwell.

Rail bridges to be upgraded By Lou Varricchio EDITOR

VHB engineering’s plan for Triangle Park and Printer’s Alley.

Downtown plan moves ahead Photos provided by the Town of Middlebury

By Lou Varricchio EDITOR

MIDDLEBURY | Earlier this month, the town of Middlebury held its final of three public meetings especially to hear public comment about the revised design concepts by VHB, an engineering fi rm located in South Burlington, for the downtown Triangle Park and Printer’s Alley. The park and alley changes reflect what will be improved downtown spaces resulting from the rail and bridge construction project now underway. “VHB’s Director of Land Planning and Landscape Architecture, Mark Hamelin, presented the latest iterations of the landscape plans, which had been revised in accordance with recommendations from Middlebury’s Planning Commission and Design Advi-

sory Committee,” according to Jim Gish, Middlebury’s downtown project community liaison. “...Members of these two boards, at the selectboard’s request, met with VHB to ask questions about aspects of the design and suggest changes that they believe would benefit the town.” A revised concept, which Gish included in one of his emailed downtown construction project updates, is on display in the Middlebury Town Offices. Gish reported that additional paving stones and concrete were added to the plan for the lower section of Triangle Park. This will “provide a more versatile space for public events, a safer crossing from Main Street to Printer’s Alley, and the potential for an ADA-accessible pathway from Main Street to the Marble Works through the new Lazarus Park,” Gish noted. ■

RUTLAND | Governor Phil Scott announced last week that the Vermont Agency of Transportation (VTrans) has been awarded a $20 million federal taxpayers grant to upgrade 31 rail bridges along the Vermont Railway between Rutland and Hoosick, New York, improving access to freight movement through the national rail system. The project is projected to cost $31 million. The State of Vermont and Vermont Rail Systems will invest $11 million toward the upgrades. “Modernization of the corridor will provide cost-competitive rates for Vermont shippers, most of which are rural businesses, improving economic outcomes for businesses here in Vermont,” said Governor Phil Scott. “I want to thank our congressional delegation

— Senators Leahy and Sanders, and Congressman Welch — for helping secure federal investment as part of this project, as well our Agency of Transportation for this important work.” “In addition to many economic benefits, the infrastructure improvements will reduce truck traffic along U.S. Route 7 and adjacent highways, will enable the expansion of intercity passenger rail, and will ensure a state of good repair for bridges over the next 75-100 years,” said Transportation Secretary Joe Flynn. With no access to interstates, the SouthWest region of Vermont is highly dependent on rail for freight movements. Increased access to freight movement will improve the regions truck congestion, increasing safety and quality of life in the local communities along the corridor. The grant was awarded through the Department of Transportation’s Better Utilizing Investments to Leverage Development (BUILD) Transportation Discretionary Grants program. ■

Welch wants to close drug loophole From News Reports THE V ERMONT EAGLE

BURLINGTON | Last week, the United States House of Representatives passed legislation introduced by Rep. Peter Welch (D-Vermont) that closes a loophole in the federal Medicaid program exploited by drug companies to minimize drug discounts required for participation in the program. Earlier this year, Welch, joined by Rep. Kurt Schrader (D-

Oregon), introduced the Medicaid Drug Rebate Accountability Act after a report by the Inspector General for the Department of Health and Human Services revealed the loophole cost state and federal governments $1 billion between 2012-2016. “For too long, drug companies have been ripping off the Medicaid program by misclassifying their products to limit required price discounts,” said Welch. “This commonsense legislation puts a stop to this unethical practice and ensures that all drugs covered by Medicaid are correctly classified.”

Under the Medicaid Drug Rebate Program, drug manufacturers seeking to have their drugs covered by Medicaid must pay drug rebates to federal and state governments. The required rebates are higher for brand name drugs and lower for generic drugs. According to the U.S. Inspector General, hundreds of brand drugs in the rebate program are being allegedly mischaracterized by drug companies as generic. Welch is among several advocates in the House supporting cutting the price of prescription drugs and reforming the drug pricing system. ■

Panther Proﬁle: Skier Angie Duke From Campus News Reports MIDDLEBURY COLLEGE

MIDDLEBURY | Middlebury College’s Angie Duke, a member of the class of 2019, is in his fourth year on the Panther alpine skiing team. An economics major who is minoring in Spanish from Stowe, Vermont, Duke stayed close to home to attend college after competing around the world for another country. Q. How did your gap year shape the skier you’ve become today? A. “I am immensely grateful for the experiences and adventure that ski racing has afforded me, none more than my time on the Argentine National Team. In many ways, my gap year was a crash course in what it was like to be a ski racer at the next level, as I was able to travel the world simply in pursuit of fast skiing. The complete focus on myself and my own skiing was a huge challenge, which ultimately helped me decide to move on to collegiate skiing... .” Q. How did dual citizenship factor into your experience? A. “I was born in Argentina to American expatriate parents, so I was fortunate enough to receive dual citizenship. My father was working as an editor for the country’s main English language newspaper, the Buenos Aires Herald, and we moved back to the United States when I was just over a year old. I started traveling back to Argentina to ski and live with host families when I was 13, and was named to the national team at 18.” Q. When you aren’t skiing, what other activities keep you busy on campus? A. “I am a member of the Student-Athlete Advisory Committee (SAAC) focused on community service. We get our teammates involved in community service events around town, whether it be playing basketball with Middlebury Special Olympics Athletes or reading for elementary school students at the Mary Hogan Read-a-thon. This year, the ski team also started cooking dinners at the Charter House, a non-profit, volunteer-based organization dedicated to providing basic food and housing in and around Middlebury on Sunday nights... .” Q. What drew you to Middlebury? A. “My choice to attend Middlebury was an easy one. Growing up in Vermont, I always had an appreciation for its

beauty, and even its frigid winters, and I wanted to stay as close to family as possible. I would also argue that there is no college in the nation that has a better combination of elite level ski racing and academics, as I’ve been able to pursue my

athletic goals without compromising my career goals... .” Q. When did you get serious about skiing? A. “I have been skiing since before I can remember. When I was a baby, my father would ski with me on his back, and I started racing when I was only seven years old. I was always competitive and loved the adrenaline rush it gave me, but what I have always appreciated about it most are the people and the places it has brought me. I’ve traveled the world and made incredible friends all thanks to the sport that I love.” Q. What is your #MiddMoment? A. “The Middlebury Carnival has been a highlight every year. Riding the chairlift over the roost before your run and feeling the energy of the students is one of the best feelings I’ve had in my 15 years of ski racing.” ■ Special thanks to Middlebury College Athletics for permission to reprint Angie Duke’s interview and photographs.

» Spirit of giving Cont. from pg. 1 By Lou Varricchio EDITOR

VERGENNES | When it comes to helping their neighbors, Americans are generous. We are ranked fourth worldwide in the 2018 World Giving Index, and every December, as news outlets cover stories about homelessness and the needy in the community, the year’s farewell month sees nearly a third of all the annual giving in the United States. To add to the holiday season’s reflection on giving, each year the personal-finance website WalletHub releases a report on the most charitable states. WalletHub posts its report online and includes videos to explain the report’s results. The website also offers visitors a “charity calculator” that enables would-be givers-ofcheer an opportunity to determine the value of giving time or money to get the best philanthropic bang for their buck. The report found that the most charitable state is Minnesota. The least charitable state is Nevada, the state with the most casinos. How did Vermont stand up in the WalletHub report on charity? Not too badly. The Green Mountain State has the most charities per capita of any state and ranks No. 18 in volunteerism. In terms of giving, Vermont is average, ranking 27th out of 50 states. Vermont’s overall performance was mixed. However, the report indicates that Vermonters would rather roll up their

sleeves than sit down and write a check as the best way to help local charities. Yet, hard donations in the forms of food and clothing also are part of the Vermont way of generosity. The passage in July of Vermont’s Act 11, which changed the state tax code to benefit all Vermont taxpayers making charitable contributions, may have helped make 2018 an improved year for local charities. In Vergennes, the John Graham Housing and Services center provides food, shelter and necessaries for those in need living in Addison County. “John Graham Housing and Services just completed our fifth annual Sleepout to Raise Awareness about Homelessness on Dec. 1,” said Peter Kellerman, co-director, of the center in downtown Vergennes. “It’s our most successful fundraiser to date and has left us humbled and deeply grateful.” Kellerman said that he was pleasantly surprised by this year’s “wonderful outpouring of support on behalf of those we serve.” He believes the Sleepout event’s success shows an increased awareness of the struggles facing those who suffer homelessness. “We are proud to be a member of an excellent network of community partners, dedicated to embracing the needs of both the homeless and all who struggle to sustain themselves and their families,” Kellerman said. “Locally, the city of Vergennes has been consistently kind and generous to the John Graham Shelter, as we complete our 38th year of service. We cannot thank everyone enough for their ongoing support to the shelter, the United Way of Addison

County, and all our respected colleagues throughout the county. We welcome the inspiration which flows from kindness.” The United Way in Addison County charity also reports more volunteerism as well as giving by local residents. “We do see an increase in giving and volunteerism during the holidays,” United Way of Addison County Executive Director Helena Van Voorst said. “I am inspired by our community’s care for one another all-year round, but especially as we enter the holiday season.” She added: “We also see an increase in giving as this yearend approaches. We have been reminding our donors that, despite changes in federal tax laws, Vermont taxpayers can receive a 5 percent of the first $20,000 in eligible charitable contributions made during the tax year thanks to Act 11, which was enacted in July.” In Rutland, Tom Donahue, CEO of BROC-Community Action in Southwestern Vermont, seemed happy for the season. “We’ve experienced an uptick in volunteerism, giving and fundraising in Rutland and Bennington counties,” Donahue said. “We’ve seen three record-setting charitable events so far this season: Wheels for Warmth, Stuff-A-Bus and the Warming Others coat drive.” Donahue said he isn’t sure why volunteerism and giving are better this year than in past years. “I am not sure if [the rise] is due to the better economy or by the fact that we’ve made a greater effort to reach out in the community where we can help the most,” he said. ■ An extended version of this story by the writer first appeared on True North Reports.
