Think Globally, Act Locally Editor, The Outlook: I believe we should “Think Globally, Act Locally.” Climate change is on the forefront of the news and minds of people all over the world. Now is not the time to be shutting down power plants that have low carbon footprints. We have the most environmentally friendly, cleanest and safely run source of power in our backyard. Vermont Yankee has been the major contributor to Vermont’s number one
ranking of lowest carbon footprint. Not relicensing Vermont Yankee will threaten Vermont’s commitment to our environment. Our focus needs to shift to the coal and gas burners. Bring on solar and wind to replace these environmentally unfriendly power plants. Relicensing Vermont Yankee allows us to meet increasing demands for electricity and economic growth while protecting Vermont’s environment at the same time. This also keeps the cost of electricity low to allow development of other green sources in our state. Vermont Yankee is safely and reliably operated by local people that care about Vermont’s environmental future. The Co-Op’s motto is “Our Roots are Local,” shouldn’t we think the same of relicensing Vermont Yankee? Michelle Joy, Brattleboro

GREEN MOUNTAIN OUTLOOK - 9
THE OUTLOOK ON
SPORTS
Get In The Game A View On Sports By Editor Joe Milliken
C’s Christmas Present The Boston Celtics recently gave their fans a nice Christmas present by knocking off the Orlando Magic on Christmas Day, without their captain, Paul Pierce, who is resting after minor knee surgery. This is a big win for the Celtics because Orlando has been a thorn, the one team in the Eastern
Conference that the new Big Three (Pierce, Kevin Garnett, Ray Allen) have a losing record against over the last two-plus years. Tony Allen started in place of Pierce and did a great job filling in with 16 points and four rebounds, however the Christmas star on this holiday afternoon was the point guard play of Rajon Rondo, who torched the Magic for 17 points, 13 rebounds and eight assists. With Pierce not on the floor and Garnett just coming back from a bruised thigh, Rondo stepped up and took control of this nationally televised game for the
Celtics, leaving no question that the Boston brass (finally) made the right choice in signing their point guard to a long term contract. Who, by the way, already has one championship ring in his pocket. Although still a young, raw talent, Rondo is arguably the fastest player in the NBA (with great hands) and who also leads the league in steals. He is a phenomenal passer who is beginning to understanding the offense and is becoming a better point guard with each passing game. However, what sets Rondo apart from most other point guards is his
uncanny rebounding ability (on both ends of the floor) and his stifling defense all over the court. Rondo still needs to improve his outside shooting, although it’s noticeably better this year and has a field goal percentage within the league's top 20. He also needs to improve upon his free throw shooting, which may begin to haunt him if teams start pulling a "hack-a-Shaq" routine on him if they feel he cannot hit his free throws on a consistent basis. Then on cue, Rondo loses a game by missing two free-bees against the Clippers.
If Rondo can somehow develop a good outside shot, which is certainly possible, because after all, he is only in his third year in the NBA, then the rest of the league better look out because this point guard is going to be hard to stop. Undefeated No Longer In NFL news and as football fans know, the Indianapolis Colts finally lost a game, falling to the Jets after a 14-0 start to the season. The loss leaves the 1972 Miami Dolphins as still, the only undefeated team in NFL history. This Indianapolis loss was a strange one though, as Colts head coach Jim Caldwell
pulled quarterback Peyton Manning in the third quarter with just a five point lead, and the Jets came back and won the game. Needless to say, the Colts fans were not happy, roundly booing the decision to remove Manning (and about a half dozen other starters) from the game when they were just two wins shy of a perfect regular season. So what, exactly, is the right decision to make? Preserve your star players for a post season run, or go after history and a perfect season? Whatever the answer, the '72 Dolphins are safe for another season... 37 years and counting.
Fall Mountain Gets First Win Over Rival Terriers ‘Cats Defense Smothers BF In Lop-Sided Win Story and photos by Joe Milliken - Sports Editor In another local local rivalry matchup between two teams in search of their first win, the Fall Mountain Wildcats traveled to Westminster and knocked off the Bellows Falls Terriers, 61-33, at Holland Gym. After a slow start, marred by turnovers in which neither team scored a point in the opening three minutes, the Wildcats scored the first eight points of the game and Bellows Falls never recovered. Utilizing an obvious height advantage, Fall Mountain consistently went inside for easy baskets, and dominated the boards on both ends of the floor. And when the Terriers attempted to take it to the basket, the Wildcats blocked shots, altered shots and generally made BF work extremely hard for every point they got. By halftime the Wildcats had a comfortable lead at 28-13, led by Blake Pearson’s 10 points and five from Kevin Plummer. The second half would see much of the same, as the Wildcats played tough defense all over the floor, causing turnovers and turning them into easy baskets in the transition game. The Wildcats held a 49-26 lead heading into the final quarter and never looked back, as the Terriers could not mount enough offense against a much taller team, to get back into the game. Clockwise from below, Terrier guard Jeremy Kilburn drives to the basket, Fall Mountain’s Blake Pearson squeezes up a shot, BF’s Chris Ruggiero drives to the basket as FM’s Thomas Kreek makes the block and the Terriers’ Joe Aslin floats up a jumper in the paint.

Benson’s Chevrolet – Three Generations of Superior Customer Service Story and Photo by Robert F. Smith – Editor Benson’s Chevrolet, on Main Street in Ludlow, is one of those rare businesses – for over 80 years it has been owned and operated by the same family. George Benson is the third generation to run this auto dealership, started by his grandfather in 1928. At that time, it was located south of Ludlow. The current location, in a building that was at one time a school house, was moved into sometime in the early 1940s. George says that the company has also sold cars to multi-generations of area residents, and that it is still not unusual for older customers to come in who actually went to school in the building. Benson’s is, in fact, the oldest family operated Chevrolet dealership in Vermont, George said, and also one of the smallest. George and long time salesman Dave Jellie comprise the entire sales staff. His father, at 70, still comes in daily to help out. George said that after getting an associates degree in business administration in 1986, he went to work at Benson’s and has been there ever since, becoming the principal owner in 2002. In his years with the company, he says he’s seen tremendous changes in the automobile industry. Among the most important have been the advent of the computer age and a much more aware consumer, as well as the recent downturn in the American automobile industry. “We get a lot of sales through the Internet,” he said. “A lot of the negotiation is done before people come in. With a computer, you have all the information at your fingertips.” George said that Chevrolet has also responded to the changing economy, bringing out new, more economical models, including the Volt, an electric car with a gas powered generator that recharges the batteries on the road, if necessary. Chevy has also developed a new turbo-charged 4-cylinder engine that gets over 40 mpg. For more information about Benson’s Chevrolet, visit www.bensonschevy.com or call 228-4000.

Corrections on Dec. 23 Red Cross Blood Drive Information Sent to Green Mountain Outlook On Dec. 23, an article appeared in the Green Mountain Outlook, sent by an unauthorized person not connected with the Red Cross Blood Drive. In this article was information that was not correct. I would like to correct this information. First the Masonic Temple is not on Atkinson Street. It is on Westminster Street. We had 92 donors, not 50, cheerfully attend. Mr. Aumand was noted for his 11 gallons at our August 27 Blood Drive not December 3. There was no Red Cross examiner. Our donors are cared for and supported by our Red
Cross Blood Drive technicians and staff from Burlington Blood Drive Services. The whole operation is run by 20-plus volunteers on two different shifts. They prepare and serve a light lunch, not a buffet, and assist the Red Cross staff wherever possible. I am most thankful to these volunteers that make our Blood Drives a continued success.

Lady Chiefs Stung By Yellow Jackets Story and photos by Joe Milliken - Sports Editor The Green Mountain Union High School girls basketball team was recently looking to make it 6-0 to start the season, however the Windsor Yellow Jackets had other ideas, handing the Lady Chiefs their first loss of the year, 56-48, at Nason Gym in Chester. In a game that saw a lot of steals, turnovers and scrambling-hustle play all over the court, the score was very tight throughout, with the Chiefs holding a one-
point lead at the half, before the Yellow Jackets came back to take a fivepoint lead heading into the final quarter. Early in the fourth the teams matched baskets, before Windsor scored six straight points to take a five-point lead half way through the period. However the Lady Chiefs kept fighting back and cut the lead to one with just under two minutes left, but the Lady Jacks hit their free throws down the stretch to pull out the eight point win.

Story and wall photo by Joe Milliken - Editor Gutierrez photo by Robert F. Smith Here at the Green Mountain Outlook, we take great pride and passion in helping to promote the local arts and music scene. From our “local musician’s spotlight” article series and local artist profiles, to Robert F.

When we opened up our new office in August and were preparing for our first “open house” event, Robert had the idea to dedicate some of our open wall space to local artists and photographers who might be interested in gracing our office with their art. The opportunity is two-fold, the artist gets to display and promote (and hopefully sell) their work free of selling fees, plus we get to fill our office with

1907 - New York’s famous ball drops for the first time from Times Square on New Year’s Eve. It was a five foot ball made out of wood and iron, weighed 700 lbs, and included 100 25-watt bulbs. Today, the ball is a 6-foot globe made out of Waterford crystal and weighs 1,070 lbs. It contains 9,576 LEDs (light emitting diodes) and uses relatively little energy (as much as about 10 toasters). Its decent starts at 11:59 PM and reaches the bottom at the stroke of midnight. The ball is sometimes referred to as the “Big Apple.” The ball has been dropped every year, except in 1942 and 1943 due to wartime lighting restrictions.
