Horseride raises $15,000 for breast cancer R&D By Lou Varricchio
newmarketpress@denpubs.com
The Paramount Theatre will present the fourth installment in its 30 Center Stage Theatre Development Series: two semi-staged performances of a new musical in development, “Garbo and Me”, with book, music and lyrics by husband and wife team Joshua Rosenblum and Joanne Sydney Lessner. Presentations will be Friday, Aug. 6, and Saturday, Aug, 7. Both performances will be at 8 p.m. All open-seating tickets are $10. “Garbo and Me” features 1998 Miss America and star of Broadway’s “Legally Blonde”, Kate Shindle, as the elusive Garbo. Ron Bohmer, father in the recent Broadway revival of “Ragtime”, plays matinee idol John Gilbert, with Neal Mayer as movie mogul Louis B. Mayer, and “9 to 5”’s Jill Abramovitz as gossip columnist Louella Parsons. In her dramatic journey from Swedish schoolgirl to Hollywood legend to New York recluse, Garbo kept the world in her thrall. But behind her glamorous screen persona was an insecure country girl yearning for the snows of her homeland and the one true love she left behind. With a jazzy, sultry score by the composer of Bush is Bad and the writing team behind “Fermat’s Last Tango”, “Garbo and Me” traces the elusive film icon as she conquers the studio system, negotiates the tabloid minefield, and juggles a string of lovers, both male and female, while struggling to protect her cherished privacy. For more information about “Garbo and Me” call the Parmount Theatre Box Office at 802-775-0903.

BRANDON — A jubilant Muffie Harvey completed a long-distance ride that took her the length of Vermont on a horse named Molly; she raised $15,000 for research in the fight against breast cancer. It wasn’t just the challenge of a Paul Revere-style ride—in Harvey’s Muffie Harvey case, it was a family member’s death to breast cancer that mades the challenge a very personal crusade. Harvey, a member of the faculty of College of St. Joseph and campus dining director with Fitz, Vogt and Associates. She rode to honor her mother, a cancer victim. To demonstrate her commitment in the fight against breast cancer, Harvey rode her horse Molly the near south-to-north length of Vermont. “I am taking backroads,” Havey told the Outlook via cell phone on June 21 at the start of the ride. “I am following the Otter Creek in some places. I can’t talk with you for very long. I am all by myself with Molly. I am determined to complete this ride,” she said. Following her June 21 departure at the SVC campus, Harvey’s stops included Rutland, Brandon, Middlebury and points north. As a member of Vermont’s higher education community, Harvey created a special “Campuses for Cancer”: part of the tour that included the starting point—her alma mater Southern Vermont College—her employer, Rutland’s College of St. Joseph, Middlebury College, and a final campus stop at the University of Vermont. “Harvey was 15 years old when her mother was diagnosed with breast cancer,” according to Ken Sheldon who is handling publicity for the ...Turn to page 3 for more about Muffie Harvey’s ride for cancer.

Brandon’s ‘Little Giant’ Stephen A. Douglas Birthplace By Lou Varricchio newmarketpress@denpubs.com BRANDON — It’s funny how we can vacation in a distant place and, as tourists, learn far more about the local lore than the history of our own backyard. Case in point: the Stephen A. Douglas Birthplace at the intersection of Routes 7 and 73 in downtown Brandon. The museum opened officially last October and is now in its first full year of operation. Built in 1813, the quaint Douglas cottage is now a local time capsule with fascinating exhibits and period-piece furnishings from Vermont’s antebellum era. This little gem of a museum is actually the core of the home of “Little Giant” Stephen A. Douglas, three-time Democrat U.S. presidential candidate. He gained worldwide fame as the vitriolic opponent of Republican Abraham Lincoln during the fiery pre-Civil War election of 1860. How this shrewd Vermonter got branded as a pro-slavery candidate is a long story; he had supported the Dred Scott Supreme Court ruling of 1857, which was the South’s clever attempt to sneak slavery into Northern states like Vermont. In addition, Douglas made so-called racist comments during the 1860 campaign and—along with his decision to champion Dred Scott—a dark cloud followed him the rest of his life. Brandon’s favorite son was early nicknamed the “Little Giant” because he was a short, barrel of a man, but a giant on the American political stage. Douglas eventually left Vermont during the 1830s. He rav-
trek. “She has been planning this trip for 20 years to honor the courage of her mother, a two-time breast cancer survivor. Muffie’s fundraising ride supports the American Cancer Society and the Pink Ribbon Diva Foundation, a Rutland-based agency that provides financial and logistical help to cancer victims.” The ride ended on July 2 at Church Street in Burlington, where clapping supporters gathered to welcome her. “I was surprised at how many people at Church Street knew we were coming,” said Harvey. “One guy stopped right in the middle of traffic, jumped out of his truck and yelled, ‘You go girl’’” The 145-mile route took her from Bennington to Burlington on a route roughly parallel to Route 7. Along the way, she stayed with fellow horse-lovers who had been enlisted by a friend who sent out an email blast. “I was amazed at the response,” said Harvey “My hosts were very gracious and generous.” Harvey was 15 years old when her mother was diagnosed with breast cancer. Harvey estimates that the ride raised around $15,000 for the fight against breast cancer, with money still coming in. “So many people shared their trials and tribulations with this disease,” she said. For now, Harvey and her horse are taking it easy; it was a long time in the saddle, but there’s already a ride planned for 2011.

Muffie Harvey
eled through New York and then headed west to the shores of the Great Lakes. He became a traveling teacher and finally came to rest in Illinois. It was there that Douglas made his great mark on politics. He served in various state offices and was later elected as a U.S. Congressman twice. Of course, the Brandon native is best known for his three-term service as U.S. senator from Illinois. Douglas seemed destined for the White House although he never quite had the “right stuff” for the nation’s highest office, at least in the eyes of many voters. Yet many Democrats loved him. He was nominated as the Democrat Party’s presidential candidate in 1852, 1856 and 1860. He proved his toughness and is best remembered as the supreme stump debater against Lincoln during the nip-and-tuck 1860 campaign. When Douglas lost the election, he urged his supporters to rally behind Lincoln. But the bipartisan good feelings—as they always tend to be—were short lived. Less than a year later, Americans were killing each other over states rights in a civil war. Less than seven months after the election of 1860, Douglas died suddenly from a surprise onset of typhoid fever. His passing shocked many of his loyal supporters who had hoped the perennial candidate might take on Lincoln, again, in the war-time election of 1864. The “Little Giant” is buried along the shore of Lake Michigan; a lifelike statue marks his final resting place. Check It Out: You can learn more about the life and times of the “Little Giant”, as well as the life of early Brandon, at the Stephen A. Douglas Museum in downtown Brandon. The homestead and museum is open daily 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. from May to October. For more details, call 802-247-6401 or visit the museum website at www.douglasbirthplace.org.

The mysterious centaurs
S
trange space objects called centaurs have recently been discovered in the far reaches of the solar system. Orbiting our Sun in a region called the Kuiper Belt, located beyond Pluto, centaurs are small objects—up to 125 miles (200 km) across; they now bridge the mini-planetoid classification gap between asteroids and comets. Centaurs are a little bit like By Lou Varricchio asteroids and a little bit like comets; they are composed of rock, ice, gases and various organic compounds. Water ice has been confirmed on a number of centaurs. In deep space, far from the Sun, centaurs behave as nomad asteroids. But when a centaur occasionally wonders closer to the Sun, its surface ices boil off and the object becomes more comet-like, even developing a gauzy tail. These strange objects, like the dwarf-planet (or just plain planet) Pluto and its moons, are part of a vast debris field left over from the formation of the solar system 4.54 billion years ago. Orbits of centaurs are highly unstable. Occasionally, Neptune’s gravity field will affect a centaur ’s orbit nudging it closer to the Sun. When the centaur ’s surface heats up due to increased solar energy, some of its ice sublimes to sport a blunt comet’s tail. Chiron is the largest centaur object discovered so far. It’s named after the mythological centaur named Chiron. Chiron is best remembered as the amazing tutor of both ancient Greek superheros Achilles and Hercules. Originally classified as a deep-space asteroid, Chiron was reclassified as the first centaur in 1977. A similar object, called Pholus, was discovered in 1992. Ever since, astronomers have been finding more centaur objects beyond Pluto’s orbit. Despite the distance between Earth and the remote space pastures where centaurs roam, astronomers have been able to detect some surface color variations. Most centaurs appear to be red due to similar chemicals, perhaps organics. Chiron, however, appears darker than its lonely companions. No one knows for sure, but this may be due to the fact that its original surface material has been boiled off countless times in its drunken-like orbit around the Sun. Then again maybe Chiron is more rocky than its fellow centaurs. We’ll probably have to wait a very long time to get a closeup view of Chiron or other centaurs. Neither the U.S. nor Europe has any plans for a robot space mission to visit a centaur object at least through the year 2020. NASA, thanks to tinkering by the anti-space Obama regime, may no longer be a significant player in the planetary exploration game. What’s in the Sky: During early August, look low in the west at sunset for four planets visible to the unaided eye: Venus, the brightest, and to its left are Mars, Saturn and elusive Mercury.

Herbie the love cat H
erbie was my mom’s cat. He had to be put to sleep today. I was in the room with ma and Herbie when he passed, and I want to apologize to Herbie. Here’s why. Herbie had been having trouble getting his business done for the past year or so, especially the past week, so mom called her vet., who was on vacation, so she called another vet and made Herbie an appointment. Herbie was seventeen and a half and lived four of those years with mom and dad, five more with mom alone. Herbie would smush his twenty-five pounds of coon catness beside dad on the recliner, and dad would pet Herbie all night long. When dad died, and you don’t have to care or believe me, or believe in the spirit of this, but when dad died, Herbie mourned him by not getting up into dad’s recliner for nearly a month. Herbie would sit in front of the recliner, look at it for a good spell, and go rest somewhere else. Good soul. Since dad died, Herbie had become mom’s main man. His giant green eye’s looking after her like his life depended on her. Which of course it did. Mom feared Herbie might not come home from the vet. this time; but she hoped the vet .would be able to get Herbie flushed out enough to send him home for one more run. I hoped the same. We always want a little more. “Fries with that?” Yeah, fries, and another two weeks with ole Herbie around would be just fine, thank-you. So when ma got the call this morning from the vet. saying Herbie’s kidneys had done their last work, she wasn’t surprised. I watched the slow but dignified death of my father; saw him lying passed away in his bed. Saw my Aunt lifeless in her bed at the nursing home too. I’ve been around my share of old, and very sick, and extremely hurt people, but I’ve never been witness to putting an animal down, which I feel is why I screwed up just a little. Ma and I were in the room when a nurse brought Herbie in, two IV’s held with gauze and stuck in his little forearm. On the table Herbie cawed a bit, but it didn’t seem like he was in pain. I’d like to think his caw was more from discomfort then blatant pain. Ma kissed Herbie and told him she loved him and that she will always love him. I pet him, and listened to what the doc had to say. I put my ear down to the bulk of Herbie’s body to hear if he was purring. Brilliant eh? He wasn’t.
Cause she doesn’t stand well at eighty, ma settled in a bench a couple feet from Herbie. I stood behind Herbie as the doc went about presenting a sedative into his arm. I lightly stroked Herbie’s back a bit, but when the doc plugged the shot of relaxant into the IV, I let up petting. Herbie fell into a medicated haze, a sleep, basically. I walked over to ma and put my hand on her shoulder, tapped her a couple of times, and the doc quietly said “this will stop his heart,” as he administered the second and final dose. Gentle ending of a gentle giant seventeen and a half year-old, green eyes the size of marbles, nice as can be, at one time 25 pound, cat. Why do I want to apologize to Herbie? Because I wasn’t chatting with him as the doc gave the first sedative. For some reason I thought getting in too close to Herbie could muddle the procedure. I’ve always had good instincts; known what to do and say with folks who’re hurting. But this was different. This was someone who was going out, right then and there, and my usual dead on instincts let me down a little bit and allowed me to succumb to the odd certainty of the moment. So I’m sorry Herbie that I wasn’t chatting with you right before the end. I should have been right down with you, loving you up, going about all normal saying “ole Herbie, he’s the feller, he’s a good boy, a handsome feller, you’re my buddy.” Sorry about that ole Herb, cause maybe going about normal could have made the very, very end, a bit more comfortable for you. I’m not worried Herbie that you didn’t have a subtle end, I’m just thinking it might have been a tiny bit better had I talked to you through it. Live and learn for me, for you Herbie, die and teach. I’ll be better next time. Thanks Herbie, for everything. Rusty DeWees tours Vermont and Northern New York with his act “The Logger.” His column appears weekly. He can be reached at rustyd@pshift.com.

Beau geste or mal geste? T
his column is about two venerable institutions which, until fairly recently, functioned quite differently from their present governance practices. Each institution has devoted special efforts to actions which seem to have been designed pointedly to affront that part of the constituency of each, once in the majority and now in the not-even-disguised-despised minority. One is my collegiate alma mater, which, for perhaps misplaced reasons of loyalty, I won’t identify here; the other is the fourteenth state, the historical label claimed by Vermont even though there was briefly a state labeled no. 14 named Franklin in Appalachia, its short political and geographical life ending just as Vermont’s began. Both institutions—university and state—share a common history; within living memory both were quintessentially conservative in population membership and governance outlook—neither one is any more. The once majority outlook on institutional purpose—education and/or governance in the historic “liberal”, not the modern “progressive” sense—having been reduced to minority status by an aggressively dominant left-leaning governing majority. A defender of what happened could well say that both were just as ideologically motivated then as they are now, albeit in different directions, then as what’s now called “conservative” and today as what’s now called “liberal”. A rebutter might argue that the university’s educational menu, particularly in the soft subjects (not the hard sciences), wasn’t nearly as ideologically directed then as it is now, while conceding that state governance on the Jeffersonian model is just as much of an ideological template as the progressive concept of the intelligent governing the stupid (for our own good, of course). The verb alienate should be enlarged to convey what I’d guess was the motivation for these symbolically valuable actions: to the minority of alumni and voters alike, the unspoken message is “sit down, shut up, and send money; we’re in charge now, and we don’t need or want your input”. Both actions are part of a broader pattern: in Vermont, the campaign to shut down Vermont Yankee is part of a much larger anti-business governance attitude which has been reflected by such new demographics. At my old school, the hiring of Obama’s leftist agitator, wealth redistributionist, and self-professed communist Van Jones as a visiting lecturer matches well the long list of recognized leftists (and absence of rightist ones) in the economics department. There, the Keynesian stimulus-viagovernment spending concepts are taught as if there were no such thing as the recent research proving that such “multipliers” are typically negative in their effect. And in the sociology department, a professor teaches that “whiteness is the (unfortunate) absence of blackness.” I’d argue that both the Van Jones hiring and the Vermont Yankee shutdown were designed for symbolic intent only;
the former accomplishing little beyond confirming the university management’s wish to be seen and admired as more eclectic, inclusive, diverse, multi-cultural, out reaching, and so on other ivyclad competitors. In contrast, the Vermont action started out as symbolic rhetoric, which to its authors’ consternation, metamorphosed into a real objective. Perhaps the turning point was the adoption of compostthrowing at a Nuclear Regulatory Commission hearing as an environmentalist debating strategy (which may well succeed at shutting down a third of the state’s electric power, with no concern for either its replacement or replacement cost). As a former news reporter, trained back in the days when we were instructed by our editors to build the lead graph around who, what, where, when, and not why or how unless it was provable fact—not opinion—I’ll admit to both an opinion (and lack of one) here. I have reported above on the four Ws and opined on the reasons for university and state action; but I have no opinion (beyond a fairly vague theory) regarding the fifth W. Why would the managers of each of these institutions take largely symbolic actions they knew would antagonize part (admittedly, an impotent minority) of their constituencies? It sure ain’t the “reaching out” inclusiveness they more typically advocate. Each of these initiatives might be explained as the victory lap or touchdown dance common in the sports world; until now, such dancing is uncommon in the halls of governance or education. Unfortunately, that explanation doesn’t enlighten anyone on why (beyond a primitive sort of cave-man—oops, make that “caveperson” or even better Homo neanderthalensis—triumphalism now expressed in more contemporary ways. Maybe my own level of sophistication is simply inadequate to an understanding what their strategy is and what their tactics were. Maybe this simply proves the progressives’ basic point of self-identification: that they are smarter than the rest of us, are therefore our natural-born leaders. We should be grateful for whatever they do even when we can’t comprehend why they’re doing it. What I have mistakenly interpreted as a pair of mal gestes or political gotchas, should be accepted with suitable humility—each as a beau geste of noble intent, executed by a pair of noble institutions each acting as pater familias for us their political children in constant need of adult supervision.

CHITTENDEN — Bob Baird of Chittenden announced his candidacy for the Vermont State Senate. He is running as a Democratic for one of three seats that represent all towns in Rutland County except Brandon. Baird, who is the Chittenden town moderator, has been a selectman and planning commission member. “I have always seen public service as my contribution towards improving the greater community. Rutland County is a wonderful place to live and raise a family, but we need more jobs and op-
portunities for young people.” Baird said. Baird, who grew up on his family’s farm in North Chittenden, has managed the farming operation since graduating from UVM in 1973. He focused on dairy production until 1996, and now raises dairy replacement heifers and is one of the region’s largest maple syrup producers, marketing maple syrup from over 5000 taps. Baird Farm was selected as Vermont’s Conservation Farm in 1999 by the Vermont Agency of Agriculture. Baird also worked part time as the Southern Ver-
mont Agricultural Director for the Vermont Land Trust. For 11 years he worked with farm owners who voluntarily conserved their land and also helped young farmers get established on conserved farms. He has been involved with numerous other non-profits and is currently on the board of Shelburne Farms “Having milked cows for 23 years, I know the meaning of hard work and would be dedicated to effectively representing Rutland County. The issues facing our county and state are complicated, and I am challenged
Bob Baird and humbled by this opportunity to work on them,” he said. Baird and his wife Bonnie have two daughters, one a recent college graduate, and the other a UVM student.
By Lou Varricchio newmarketpress@denpubs.com WHITEHALL, N.Y. — Two Whitehall-area businesses, LaFlamme’s Inc. and Stan’s TV, teamed up recently to become a full-service home center. According to Chris LaFlamme, “Brenda Woodruff is remaining on the sales team, part-time, allowing her to stay involved with her current customers and spend more time at home with her daughter Mikeala. Stan of Stan’s TV will continue providing the area with professional repair service for all major brand appliances and refrigeration.” LaFlamme said LaFlamme’s Inc. will now offer a repair service in addition to selling appliances and electronics. The businessman said he took down walls to expand and has stocked the store with several new products. “Brenda Woodruff told me that if I put any more merchandise in the store there will be no room left for customers,” LaFlamme said. “And now for the first time since Scott’s Weekend Furniture, a complete line of Serta-brand mattresses, recliners, sofas, tables, chairs, flooring including carpeting, with installation will be available in Whitehall.” To expand the inventory, LaFlamme includes computer accessories, bunk beds, batteries, wood pellets, pellet stoves and Samsung-brand television sets at the 120 Main St. location. Major appliance parts, vacuum cleaners and vacuum belts, as well as bags and parts, will still be available at the new location. “LaFlamme’s Inc. will match offers from all national chain stores and will even provide additional offers such as 90 days Same as Cash, in house financing, and one year no interest from GE Money,” LaFlamme said. According to LaFlamme, the combination of Stan’s TV and LaFlamme’s will provide the Whitehall area with “a full service solution to all of your home furnishing needs.” Check It Out: Meet Brenda Woodruff, Chris and Angela LaFlamme, Nathan Bosch and Lynn Prindle during their new, extended hours, Monday through Friday, 9 a.m. to 5:30 p.m., and on Saturdays, 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Look for the retailer’s new advertising insert inside the Green Mountain Outlook paper.

Brown uses the unique perspectives of each individual he is paying homage to in creating an image of his own. The exhibit offers a viewer a wealth of art history knowledge. Mary Crowley is exhibiting her collection of monoprints and collages that were created during a stay at a workshop in Santa Fe, as well as a woodblock workshop held by Sabra Field in Tuscany.

LUDLOW — The Black River Acaemy Museum (BRAM), located at 14 High St. in Ludlow, will host a basket class on July 31, 10 a.m.4 p.m. Students will be making a large market basket. It will be woven with 1/2inch-long flat reed, a white oak "D" handle, flat oval rim, sea grass filler, and 1/4-inch-long flashing. There will be colors for accents and the cost will be $60.00 per person. Attendees should bring a bag lunch. The class is being taught by Susan Langley, a Chester resident and a Physical Therapist at Springfield Hospital. Susan began weaving 20 years ago when she purchased a "How to.." booklet with basket patterns. Susan is a member of the Society of Vermont Artists and Craftsmen and a board member of the Northeast Basket makers Guild. To register, call The Black River Academy Museum at 802228-5050.
n a disturbing admission of legislative defeatism, Rep. Jeff Young (D-St. Albans) wrote in a letter to the editor that if Vermonters want to achieve the American dream, they will “need to leave” the state. In a letter published in the St. Albans Messenger on July 29, Young wrote, “If you wanted to stay in Vermont you would have to find a profession that is here... But if you want a job that isn't going to be found in any numbers in any rural state, you'll need to leave. So do I want to stay or do I want to follow a career dream?” Woah! Where is this guy coming from? And why is he still in office? Maybe political leaders like Young should be the ones vacating the Green Mountain State for other career opportunities. Time to be blunt: Young, along with every Democrat in the legislature, voted to override Gov. Jim Douglas’ 2009 veto of the state budget—raising taxes by more than $20 million. Thus it became harder to create new, high paying jobs in Vermont. No matter where you turn in the state today, you find legislators like Young defeating business and job growth—from Vermont Yankee to building a new shopping center in Brandon. As Vermonter Steve Larabee said, “There is a mindset (in the state legislature)... that we shouldn't try to compete for jobs in the 21st century economy. They seem to be fine with raising new taxes and sitting idly by as property taxes soar.” Vermont desperately needs legislators who care and know that responsible tax policy matters. We need tax policy that welcomes business and stimulates job creation— not just green jobs, but all kinds. We need better leaders who believe that we can create jobs and opportunities for the next generation of Vermonters. Lou Varricchio
Antique tractor expert Joseph Pasquariello of Cavendish correctly guessed the Outlook’s mystery tractor pictured in a recent issue: it’s a 1953 Farmall M with loader. The Super M pictured is a good running machine with lots of extras. It has an M&W live hydraulic pump, Behlen power steering, Schwartz wide front, single pair of auxiliary hydraulic remotes, brand new rear tires, and a Dual loader run from a PTO pump. — The Editor

Local H.S. grads ready for annual Shrine game By Lou Varricchio
Both teams are scheduled to have triple sessions starting tomorrow and even the threat of showers will not detract from the plan of having both offenses in place by this weekend. New Hampshire leads the overall series 41-13-2, including last year's 40-6 victory over Vermont, but the Vermonters hope that this will be their year as the game moves across the Connecticut River for only the third time in Bowl Game history. Preceding the bowl game in Windsor, there will be a spectacular parade through the streets of Windsor featuring over 3,000 marchers. The parade is scheduled for noon and in addition to units from seven Shrine Centers in the Northeast, there will be an appearance by the Shrine All Star High Band, made up of nearly 100 high school musicians from 20 high schools, kick-off for the football game is set for 2:30 p.m. Tickets for the game is $8 in advance and $10. on game day. There is also reserved seating for $20 and these can be obtained from any of the ticket outlets throughout New Hampshire and Vermont. For more information, contact the Shrine Bowl Football office at 603-448-1042.
newmarketpress@denpubs.com Seventy-two recently graduated high school football players from New Hampshire and Vermont arrived on the campus of Kimball Union Academy last week to begin preparation for the 57th Annual Shrine Maple Sugar Bowl. The summer classic is set for Saturday, Aug. 7 in Windsor. Players from high schools in Rutland, Addison, Windsor and Chittenden counties will be players on the all-star team this year. This is the third year that KUA has hosted the Shrine football teams and the school’s close proximity to Windsor and the availability of both natural and artificial turf make it an ideal location. The players will under go physicals and have team pictures this morning and then take to the field for afternoon and evening workouts before finally calling it a day. Vermont head coach Charlie Burnett from Essex and New Hampshire head coach Ken Sciacca from North County Regional (Conway) have told their players to report in shape and ready to go.
Local cookbook prompts special dinner event at Cafe at Delight Aug. 14 LUDLOW — If you’re an Americana cookbook collector like I am—especially those fun, cookbooks published by local organizations such as garden clubs and churches for the purposes of fundraising—then you’ll enjoy a unique event that’s planned for Saturday, Aug. 14, at the Cafe at Delight in downtown Ludlow. Church cookbooks and the like aren’t an unusual
way for community organizations to raise funds, however, it is unusual to sit down and enjoy a fully cooked local dinner serviving dishes based on, let’s say, Aunt Martha’s recipes that appeared in her garden club’s cookbook. So that's why members of the Black River Academy
Museum deserve kudos for organizing what promises to be a special event for Ludlow gourmets—it’s a dining event that will surely put Aunt Martha’s quaint recipes to shame. Members are planning the BRAM cookbook dinner for Aug. 14, from 6 to 8 p.m., at Cafe at Delight.
N. Main St. Route 7 Rutland
According to Ralph Pace of BRAM, “BRAM will be hosting a buffer dinner that will feature creations found in its recently published cookbook. The recipes were supplied by gourmet cooks
from the community. Food offered will include everything from appetizers through entrees to desserts.” The Café at Delight is located at the traffic signal on
the corner of Main and Depot streets in Ludlow. The cost is $10 for adults and $5 for ages 8 and under and it’s all for a good cause—the historic Black River Academy Museum.

You don’t have to be the Devil or wear Prada to appreciate the well-heeled history of m’lady’s mettre les chaussures. And thanks to artist Susan Kneebone, a Ludlow resident, the fascinating history of shoes has never before been so well shod. Ok, let’s dispense with the puns and get down to the heart and sole of the matter—artist Kneebone has spent a lifetime wrapped up in art design and creative painting. Among her commercial creations is a striking big red shoe that seems to have a life of its own. “When Susan retired with her husband Bill to Ludlow, her interest in art continued as she created paintings and did art work for local organizations,” according to Ralph Pace of the Black River Art Guild, “she lost touch with some of the work she previously had been commissioned to do when working as a commercial designer in New Jersey.” Well, on a recent visit to New Jersey, Kneebone was surprised to find a logo she had created years ago was being used to broadcast a museum exhibit at the historic Morris Museum in Morristown, N.J. “The show, entitled ‘The Shoe Must Go On’, tells the story of shoes through the centuries of their design and evolution. The exhibition is featured in the museum's main gallery. It includes shoes from many walks of life and worn by many historical personages,” Pace said. Pace noted that some of the shoes displayed were worn by First Lady Mary Washington, Mary Queen of Scots, Thomas Edison, and General David Petraeus. Shoes of sports figures on display include Derek Jeter, Mohammed Ali, and Yogi Berra's sneakers. The exhibit also includes the latest in women’s runway designs from sexy open-toe stilettos to thighclinging leather boots. The New Jersey exhibit, now underway, ends Aug. 29; information can be found at www.morrismuseum.org. An active member of the Black River Art Guild, Kneebone’s simple yet stylish graphic designs grace several local Internet websites.
