Local bikers honor the life of Rutland attorney By Rose Anne Van Lew Special to the Rutland Tribune In 1988, Ron Williams, a prominent Rutland attorney, was riding his motorcycle with some friends

when he crashed. Within days, he had passed away due to injuries sustained in that accident. The following year, a bunch of his friends, most of whom were members of a group known as the

Southwest Chapter of Freedom of the Road for Vermont, organized a poker run in his memory and the “Ron Run” was born. Following the original route that Williams and his friends were rid-

ing on that fateful day in 1988, this successful charity event traditionally starts at C & D Chopper in Center Rutland, moves through Rutland City, then up the mountain, west over Brandon Gap, along

Rutland, Benson receive climate change funds Gov. Jim Douglas announced that another 15 energy efficiency projects have received $170,000 in funding from the Vermont Community Change Program—included are projects in Rutland City and Benson. The competition was fierce with 86 applications submitted. Helping businesses monitor electricity use is the goal of the Vermont Community Foundation Green Team’s $12,000 grant. VCF will launch an eight-month, real time metering competition in Middlebury by distributing “real-time” energy metering devices and data-logging software to 30 businesses and nonprofits. VCF predicts the project will save between 5 and 15 percent in energy costs and use. Other projects, showing tons of carbon emissions reduced, include: Greater Burlington YMCA: $12,000 to upgrade lighting, saving $3,765 in energy costs. Annual emissions reduction– 23 tons. Rutland City Wastewater Treatment Plant: $12,000 to upgrade lighting. Annual emissions reduction – 40.5 tons. Newton School ‘Whole Energy Initiative’, Strafford: $11,992 to install high-efficiency lighting and photovoltaics. Annual emissions reduction–13 tons. Grace Congregational United Church, Rutland: $11,072 to weatherize and improve electrical efficiency. Annual emissions reduction–19 tons. Lamoille County Players: $11,817 to weatherize the Hyde Park Opera House. Annual emissions reduction–9 tons. Ferrisburgh Central School: $11,535 toward a wind turbine to be installed this summer. Annual emissions reduction–8 tons.

The Poultney Public Library presented an evening with Cecilia Galante, author of two popular books, “The Patron Saint of Butterflies“ and “Hershey Herself” June 30. Galante read excerpts from the her first novel, “The Patron Saint of Butterflies”. She focused on the scene when Nana Pete takes the children from the cult. Agnes, one of the main characters, speaks about the “regulation room” and the “kneeler” but does not mention the horror of the wall of various chains for punishment. Born and raised in a religious cult in upstate New York in 1971 proved to be the inspiration for Galante’s first novel—a fictional account of two 14-year old girls who escape from a cult. Galante attended King’s College, later married, then moved to Long Island, N.Y., and gave birth to her first child, Sarah. “After one year, my baby and I had to seek help at a

FOCUS ON THE FAMILY—The Rutland Family Fun Day was held at the Main Street Park last weekend. The event is organized and sponsored by the Calvary Bible Church in Rutland. The gathering was aimed at children of all ageswith bands, food, face painting, inflatable playgrounds and more. Officers of the Rutland City Police and Fire Departments demonstrated a new police K-9 Unit and fire engine.

The Stafford Technical Center Public Safety Services class was asked to make a presentation to the entire school at the Student of the Marking Period Assembly. The students decided to accept the challenge and, under the direction of Erika Stocker, who was the project director, came up with the topic of improper cell phone usage. The group then worked to flesh out subtopics, and each student developed a subtopic that he or she would be responsible for. The subtopics were then amalgamated into a cohesive presentation. The subtopics included all facets involving improperly using a cell phone and texting. Kayla Jones, a junior from Mill River, dealt with the issue of the rude and annoying behaviors that people by carrying on loud or disgusting cell phone conversations in public places. She found stories of how

Stone Cold Roosters play July 14 This summer ’s Castleton Concert on the Green summer concert series is presenting an outstanding collection of talented musicians from New England. The next concert is no exception. The Stone Cold Roosters will return to the Castleton concert venue with a performance on the green Tuesday, July 14, at 7 p,m. The Stone Cold Roosters are a seven-pack of Vermont's best pickers that can play it all: blues, honkeytonk, country, Western swing, rock and roll, and classic Americana. Named, assembled and fronted by award-winning songwriter and record producer, Colin McCaffrey, the Roosters feature Colin on guitar, vocals and fiddle; Ted Mortimer on guitar, and Casey Dennis on bass—from the Vermont band, Dr. Burma. Also, fiddler Thal Aylward (Spy, Frydaddy); piano legend, Chuck Eller, (Kilimanjaro, Unknown Blues Band); Jim Pitman on pedal steel, and Roy Cutler on drums -- two alumni from Western Swing legends, Rick and the Ramblers. Playing classic country, Americana and Western swing tunes in the style of Bob Wills, Merle Haggard, Hank Williams, George Jones, as well as songs by Joe Ely, J.J. Cale, Little Feat, Neil

Young, CCR, The Band, and their own originals, the Stone Cold Roosters repertoire covers nearly a century of American music. The band’s recently released C.D., "Out Of The Woods", was hailed as "righteously old-fashioned" by Seven Days, and the Times Argus called it one of the years "best albums by any band, anywhere, from any state". The fact that because all of the SCR band members are multi-talented, they are constantly invited by other bands, to perform with

them. It's no wonder that the Stone Cold Roosters has the reputation as one of the very best collection of musicians in New England. The concert is free and open to the public. It performs rain or shine. Rain site is the Casella Fine Arts Center at Castleton State College. All Castleton summer concerts contribute proceeds to the Give Back Program with local food banks and the Rutland County Humane Society.

Religious Services Losing a pet is an emotional thing. It's important that all animals have identification so they can be returned to their owners. An I.D. tag on your pet's collar is the easiest method. The tag should include your name, address, telephone number and the pet's name. If there's extra space, the phone number of the veterinarian is also a good idea. If you move, make sure you get a new tag for your animal with your new contact information. Pets can also be microchipped. Many humane societies and veterinarians have a scanner which identifies if an animal has a microchip. If there's a microchip, a phone call is made to identify the owner. Either way, please take a moment and check that your favorite pet has identification so you can get him back safe and sound in a hurry. If you have questions, call the Rutland County Humane Society at 4836700.

Get the bad guy

S

he said, “he lunged toward me when we fought.” If he lunges, you leave—period. No lunging allowed. She said, “he threatened to kill me.” Hey gal, someone tells you he’ll kill you, you leave the first time he says it—period. No exceptions. I know he’s a nice guy and sweet, and I know his father abused him; I know you feel sorry for him because he can’t keep a job and that he rattles easily due to medication. I know he’s good to your mother and nieces and nephews but gal, listen up: if he picks up a chair and throws it across the room, leave— period—the first time he does it and don’t ever come back. Don’t think you can’t survive without him because you can and will endure. What you can’t do is survive with him. Not only is it important you understand what you’ve just read, it’s important you follow through with actions appropriate to the situation. I don’t have much hope that cycles of abuse can ever be broken. I have little hope that one day our political and community leaders can make laws that bring wife beating, child molesting, and raping criminal behavior, all to their final act. They’re trying harder now, a tad too late for an unfortunate few Vermonters, but at least they’re trying harder and that’s good—but I think even stricter laws will most likely only hope to stop reoccurrence, not occurrence. Stopping occurrence, like charity, begins at home. Being charitable comes from living within the truth, and the truth is if your mate drugs and steals and yells and hits and sits and swears and lunges and molests and kidnaps and rapes, the only chance you have to give he or she charity is to leave, period. The truth will set you free, it can also save your life. I’m feeling politically incorrect. I’m feeling I want to, point blank, say anyone intentionally harming a young person should be done away with. Before you get mad at me for wanting to kill the killers, I want to say I took an unofficial survey of my own last week—100 percent of you responded that you’d kill killers, too. Sorry killers, and no offense, because I certainly have compassion for all humans; I know you have many good qualities, but if one of your bad qualities is killing you gotta go; and not because you’re so much more a bad person than I am—but more because you’re a cog in the cycle of a long line of abusers. I believe the way to dead reckon an end to a cycle is to bury it. So you see, it’s not so much about killing you as it is about the potential to save so many lives in the future. I hope that makes sense to you, and I’m sure it does cause you are actually sharp and not so much insane as your defense team would like us to believe. Last night’s sunset was profoundly beautiful. As I drove across the valley to visit a landscape painter friend of mine, I watched the sunset progress; I thought how odd it is that one man could see such a beautiful thing and be moved to paint it, while another man—his neighbor—will see the same sunset and be filled with hate.

A question of states rights W

hat do Vermont and Montana have in common? Copper mining in Vermont (specifically, Corinth and South Strafford) petered out in the late 19th century, but continues in the Big Sky Country of Montana. Aggressive leftist politics—specifically, the International Workers of the World—pretty much ended in the Big Sky Country in the mid 20th century but has recently emerged in Vermont. Both states have populations with environmental interests, but Montana is the headquarters of the private-sectoraction-advocating Political Economy Research Center; Vermont is identified with government control from billboard prohibition, and Act 250, to anti-big box retail store actions at the town level—and anti-nuclear politics at the state level. States right. Thinking of this phrase as a label for segregationist policies in the South is decidedly obsolete because the new idea of states rights arose from the ashes of the old Tenth Amendment prescription in order that public education everywhere could escape from the federal tyranny of No Child Left Behind, a 2001 requirement that almost all public school must score at the proficient level by 2014. Getting their young charges to “proficient” was such a foreign notion to American educrats that, in almost every state, lobbyists were mobilized to enable each state to select any test in lieu of the federal one. Overnight, publishers such as McGraw-Hill filled the newly opened marketing niche with easy new tests for states to purchase, use, and display their better-than-NAEP results. Vermont, typically, went a step further—some of its districts filed suit against the feds on the grounds that getting almost all students to proficient status wasn’t in their job description; if the feds wanted such an unreasonable outcome, why then the feds would have to pay a lot extra for it. The epithet was “unfunded mandate”—the argument was that each state should have the right to pick its own tests. For example: Vermont purchased NECAP. Tennessee purchased TCAP. Montana purchased MontCAS. Only Nebraska has refrained from end-running the NAEP. Thus, the states won out in a states rights battle: federal testing still exists, but its dismal score-results get as little publicity from the state educational establishments as possible. Only a few newspapers-with-consciences are brave enough to publish the dismal test scores. While Montana’s purchase of MontCAS was perhaps

predictable, its other states rights initiative isn’t. The Montana State Legislature has ruled that gun-ownership of a completely intrastate nature is immune to federal regulation, and Democratic Gov. Brian Schweitzer has signed it into law. But—but—the ACLU and other avid anti-gun advocates will not take kindly to this; the federal precedent is on their side. Consider, for example, the 1942 decision of the U.S. Supreme Court in Wickard v. Filburn. Led by Chief Justice Harlan Stone, all nine judges agreed that USDA Secretary Wickard had the authority to regulate the household-use grain produced by wheat-farmer Filburn, in accordance with the Agricultural Adjustment Act of 1938. Even because it wasn’t used in interstate commerce, it replaced wheat which Filburn would otherwise have had to buy from interstate sources and would have been regulated by USDA under the Commerce Clause of the Constitution. The Supreme Court ruled: Filburn’s criminally-grown 239 bushels violated his USDA wheat quota. The decision had impact far beyond the World War-II era: it was the precedent-setting basis for the 2005 SCOTUS decision in Gonzales v. Raich, the case showing homegrown medicinal marijuana is a legitimate subject of federal regulation because, as with Filburn’s wheat—it competes with marijuana that moves in interstate commerce. Here’s the court’s explanation: “Wickard thus establishes that Congress can regulate purely intrastate activity that is not in itself ‘commercial’, in that it is not produced for sale, if it concludes that failure to regulate that class of activity would undercut the regulation of the Interstate market in that commodity.” SCOTUS precedent isn’t always permanent: Brown v. Board overruled Plessy v. Ferguson on separate-but-equal, and Payne v. Tennessee over-ruled Booth v. Maryland on an Eighth Amendment interpretation. Now that states rights is a proud new principle—at least when it comes to throwing out rigorous NCLB tests in support of easier student tests—can it support Second Amendment pro-gun principles as well? Stay tuned.

Making an impact C

States—the mind boggles at the magnitude of the explosion that must have created it. Detonating all the nuclear weapons stockpiled now on Earth—and those already exploded since the Trinity Test in New Mexico in 1945—all at once, and within a compact “ground zero” area, would be like a few sputtering Fourth of July firecrackers compared to the ancient Borealis explosion on Mars. When did the ultra-violent Borealis event occur? NASA researchers think it must have taken place around 3.9 billion years ago. What’s in the Sky: During the pre-dawn hours of July 11, look for the giant planet Jupiter in the south, located well above the horizon. The gas giant’s four large moons, called the Galilean moons or the Cosmica Sidera—after Renaissance patron Cosmo Medici—were first discovered by Italian astronomer Galileo Galilei in 1610. “(The moons) make their journeys and orbits with a marvelous speed around the star of Jupiter, like children of the same family,” Galileo wrote. The waning gibbous Moon also shines near Jupiter. See sky map, courtesy of J. Kirk Edwards.

raters come in all sizes; they come in all shapes, too. These fascinating geological surface features, seen on some planets, moons, and even smaller heavenly objects, can be linked to either volcanic-related or impact-related events. Here on Earth, we’re all familiar with six-mile-wide Crater Lake in Oregon (a volcanic caldera) and 4,000-feetwide Barringer Meteor Crater in Arizona (formed by a 300,000-ton meteor). Some larger terrestrial features, such as the Gulf of Mexico and Hudson Bay, may be massive eroded asteroid impact basins. The nearest impact feature to Vermont is the 6.2-mile-wide inverted-crater, known as Panther Mountain, in the Catskill Mountains of New York. In our solar system, we can observe craters on the Moon through a backyard telescope, on asteroids, other moons, and even some of the other planets such as Mercury and Mars. But recent analysis of Mars—using the remote-sensing capabilities of robot spacecraft—now reveals what appears to be, by far, the mother of all craters. This is the largest impact crater discovered in the solar system so far. NASA’s Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter and Mars Global Surveyor satellites have revealed an ancient, long-eroded impact crater called the Borealis Basin. This giant surface feature spans 40 percent of the martian surface. But unlike typical craters, the Borealis feature is elliptical in shape rather than circular. Using fresh gravity data and surface-elevation measurements, collected by NASA’s armada of orbiting martian spacecraft, the researchers were able to reconstruct a “prehistoric” map of Mars before geological and meteorological forces obliterated the sharp features of Borealis— thus, the expected crater bowl shape was revealed. Over 5,300 miles in diameter, Borealis is four times wider than the older Hellas Basin, located to its south. Hellas was once considered the grandpappy of the solar system’s impact craters. The basin could contain the United States and then some. What created such a titanic scar? Probably a dwarf planet. NASA astronomers now calculate that the Borealis impacting body was 1,200 miles across—that's bigger than Pluto, the socalled ninth planet. Imagine a crater wider than the continental United

1,000-plus take on cancer fight Rutland ‘Relay for Life’ sends powerful message

In the Military

By Angela DeBlasio newmarketpress@denpubs.com According to the American Cancer Society, “One in three people will be diagnosed with cancer during their lifetime.” Across the nation—and especially in Rutland County—the American Cancer Society Relay For Life is a life-changing event. Nationally, more than 3.5 million people celebrate the lives of those who have battled cancer, remember loved ones lost, and fight back against a disease that takes too much. Relay for Life is the American Cancer Society’s signature activity. It offers everyone in a community an opportunity to participate in the fight against cancer. Teams of people camp out at a local high school, park, or fairground and take turns walking or running around a track or path. Each team is asked to have a representative on the track at all times during the event. Relays are an overnight event. On June 27 and June 28, Rutland Relay for Life kicked off its nineteenth year ; it is the oldest of the 14 related relay events in the state. Rutland also boosts a remarkably high participation rate as more than 1,000 residents of the Rutland County area took part with approximately 50 teams, ranging in size from 100 members to few. Teams took a a variety of approaches to raising money for the fight to cure cancer—from soliciting sponsorships, for the number of laps walked, to other ways more specific to the individual or group. The relay organizers posted this year ’s top teams in fundraising on the group’s website. Among the top netting teams were the Rutland County Board of Realtors: ($3,125), Pearson's Power Walkers: ($2,820) the CVPS Employees: ($2,704). Funds raised during the Relay for Life event enable the American Cancer Society to support many Rutland-area services and resources for local cancer patients and their families. Funds also support critical national cancer research and community education programs designed to teach people how to reduce their risk of developing cancer. Last week’s event began at 3 p.m. The relay track was surrounded by a multitude of colorful tents, tarps, and awnings for those who planned to spend the night. A “trademark” purple and pink balloon arch signified the start of the walk. A local D.J. played music to keep participants energized and ready for a long walk. The relay committee organized fun activities for children, too; a hoola-hoop contest and water balloon tag game kept youngsters occupied and engaged. Area cancer survivors gathered at Applebee’s Restaurant for a special luncheon. Participants walked around CVPS’ 0.3 mile-long track ringed by Mexican-style luminaria with the names and photos of loved ones who have died of cancer. Sadly, this year ’s event has produced more luminaria with the names of men and women, boys and girls, who have lost the cancer battle. Yet, there was reason to hope—many participants in attendance were vibrant and courageous cancer survivors;

they served as living reminders that our communities, our families, are not immune to the disease. Rutland Regional Medical Center graciously provided staff for on-site healing reiki sessions, delightful foot massages, and soothing back massages for both survivors and caregivers. Hannaford Supermarkets and its employees were on hand, once again, to provide food and beverages to walkers. G.E. Jetsetters volunteers sported yellow t-shirts; the General Electric team was a top company fundraiser and sponsor of this year ’s relay. Ingrid Gallo, co-chairwoman of the event, said the relay group raised approximately $120,000; she expected to meet the local goal. But she encouraged local residents to continue the fight by donating online at www.relayforlife.org/rutlandvt. During the Relay for Life’s closing ceremonies, June 28, several hundred attendees followed a kilt-clad bagpipe player piping “Amazing Grace” through a final walking course in the parking lot of Central Vermont Public Service. With so much individual passion—woven together with the amazing power of faith, advanced scientific research, and education—on display in Rutland last week, there’s reason to hope that, perhaps, in the not too distant future, the scourge of cancer will be a relic of times past.

Disease threatens local tomato, potato plants Cool summer, rains cause ‘Late Blight’ Dr. Vern Grubinger University of Vermont Extension Vermont’s early summer cloud cover and wet weather is killing local crops. If you grow tomatoes or potatoes for farmers markets or for personal consumption, take heed. This is shaping up to be one of the worst years for Late Blight, the fungal disease made famous as the cause of the Irish potato famine of the mid1800s. Today, this disease doesn’t pose the threat of famine, since we don’t depend on one or two local crops for our food, but it could ruin potato and tomato crops for local farmers and gardeners unless they are alert and take appropriate action. Note that this disease poses no threat to people--except for the loss of these crops. Late blight is caused by the fungus called Phytophthora infestans, and it’s actually not uncommon in the northeast, since it thrives in cool summer temperatures and frequent rains. But usually its occurrence is limited to later in the growing season and only certain areas of the region, typically in a few farm fields. This year, the plant disease has shown up early and is widespread. Worse, it’s been identified on tomato plants for sale at a number of Vermont home garden centers, suggesting that large numbers of home gardeners have already purchased infected plants, which may serve as a source of inoculum (spores) that can spread the disease. Late blight inoculum is easily carried long distances by wind currents, so anyone growing tomatoes or potatoes should be on the lookout for signs of the disease, even in the most remote areas in our region. Current-

ly all varieties of tomato and potato plants grown in home gardens and in commercial fields are susceptible to late blight. If your plants have late blight, be prepared to destroy them in order to limit spread of the disease. The Late Blight organism is not seedborne (however, it is tuberborne in potato), so that tomato plants started from seed locally should be free of the disease, at least initially. The symptoms that develop on tomato leaves, stems and fruit are quite dramatic, and are very obvious to the naked eye. The infected areas on leaves appear to be water-soaked, varying in size from a nickel up to a quarter, often beginning at leaf tips or edges. They proliferate when the foliage has been exposed to watering, rainfall, or heavy overnight dews. If these infected areas dry out quickly, they may appear lime-green or beige in color. The edge of the water-soaked area, either on the top or bottom of the leaf surface, will be covered with white fungal growth (mycelium) that contains the spore inoculum (visible with a hand lens). Spores are easily blown to surrounding areas and infect plants and even weed species, in the plant family Solanaceae (the black nightshade family). Brown to almost black lesions appear on infected stems, and the same lesions will develop on fruit, either directly on the infected plants, or a few days after they are sitting on your kitchen counters Be aware that there are several other common, but less serious, diseases of tomato and potato. If the infected area has a yellow border and is occurring on the bottom of the plant, it is likely due to either Early Blight or Septoria Leaf Spot. These two diseases are found in home gar-

dens most every year in the northeast, but they rarely kill the plants, and they don’t spread long distances. Please inspect your tomato and potato plants on a daily basis. If Late Blight symptoms are already appearing on plants in your garden, these plants should be removed immediately and put in a plastic bag for disposal. Don’t just put the removed plants in a compost pile as spores will still spread from this debris. Your neighbors, not to mention commercial growers, will appreciate

your taking this action immediately. Commercial growers have a number of fungicides that if applied early and on a regular basis, can reduce the spread of Late Blight. They would choose not to spray if they could, but this destructive disease does not give them any other option. Homeowners do have a few products that are registered for use and the common name of chlorothalonil should appear on the product label. Even here, these products are only effective if used before the disease appears and should be reapplied

every 5-7 days if wet weather persists. For organic growers the options are very limited. Copper fungicides can be used, but they are not very effective. If spraying any type of fungicide, remember that these materials only protect healthy tissue—infected leaves cannot be saved. Good coverage of all the foliage is critical, and repeat applications are needed to protect new growth from infection. Always read the pesticide label and follow the instructions carefully.

Double the Savings, Double the Fun

I

've mentioned before that dollar sales paired with dollar coupons are one of my favorite ways to get free items at the grocery store. Another easy way is through double-coupon promotions. Double-coupon promotions are exciting! Many stores will match a coupon's face value and pass the savings on to you, the shopper. Some stores double coupons every day, while others run special douBy Jill Cataldo ble coupon promotions certain days of the week or times of the year. In some cases, stores may even offer triple-coupon days. Regardless of how your stores handle double coupons, they are a great way to save even more money and get items for free. Here's how coupon doubling works. If you have a 50-cent coupon, the cashier will scan it at the register and give you $1 off your item. Coupon doubling becomes even more fun when the doubled value equals the value of the item you're buying. Let's say you are buying a 2-liter bottle of soda that was on sale for a dollar. With a 50-cent coupon doubled to $1, your bottle of soda is free! The store matches the coupon's value of 50 cents and you pay nothing. So what happens if your doubled coupon value exceeds the cost of the item? During a recent double-coupon sale at a major retailer I purchased a $3.50 bottle of shampoo. I had a $2 coupon; the store doubled the coupon's value to $4. Now, as I've mentioned in a previous column, many stores do allow what couponers call overage, when the value of a coupon exceeds the cost of an item. In the case of overage, the extra value is applied to the rest of your total. However, stores that double coupons typically do not give overage. In this instance, the $2 coupon would double to a $4 value, but since the item is $3.50, the store will "adjust down" the value to match the cost of the item, making it free. It's important to check your store's policy on doubling coupons, too. Policies on coupon doubling vary by store and retail chain. Some stores may double all coupons up to 50 cents or $1. Other stores may double coupons up to $2. Some stores will not double printable Internet coupons. Ask your store for a copy of its coupon policy, either at the store's service counter or online via the store's Web site. What if your store doesn't double coupons? Don't worry. You can still be a Super-Couponer even without double coupon promotions. I have noticed that double coupons tend to be a regional phenomenon. In many markets, grocery stores may not offer double coupons at all. This is the case where I live, in the suburbs of Chicago, where major grocery stores simply don't offer double coupons. In fact, to find grocery stores that offer double coupons I travel 40 minutes away from the city, so I rarely get to take part in these promotions. I shop every week at a store that does not offer coupon doubling, and I still do very well at cutting my grocery bill significantly. At least one major retailer has started offering doublecoupon promotions nationwide during certain times of the year. They're definitely worth watching for! With the current state of the economy, I would guess we'll see other retailers taking part in similar promotions in the weeks and months ahead.

Williams From page 1 A group called FOR-Vermont organized the “Ron Run” through the year 2000 when it disbanded. Starting in 2001, the Southwest Freedom Riders, a newly formed organization, dedicated to motorcycle safety, education, and community involvement—which boils down to a bunch of bighearted bikers who like to raise money for charities— took up the reins; the Freedom Riders continued to provide a fun and exciting event, which has raised thousands of dollars for Ron Williams’ two favorite charities: the Special Olympics and VINS, Vermont Institute of Natural Science. Although the Ron Run has had different finishing lines in the past five years, most of its founding traditions have remained the same. As a longtime participant, this writer can say that there are few experiences to top the feeling one gets when the bikes arrive at the party and all the special athletes are cheering for their biker friends. The athletes are always involved in the party and barbecue, and usually receive awards of some kind. Now comes the twentieth anniversary of the Ron Williams Memorial Poker

stories, as well as certain family members have crept into them.” A highly disciplined author, Galante writes daily from 4-6:30 a.m. during her summer-long vacation. Fortunately, after numerous rejections and queries, Galante found herself an agent that wants to spend a career with her. Publisher Simon & Schuster will release Galante’s third book, titled “Willowood”, this winter. This novel concerns a girl named Lily Sinclair who befriends a man who has Down Syndrome and discovers a secret about him that will change both of their lives forever. Galante’s fourth book, “The Sweetness of Salt”, is tentatively scheduled for release in the summer of 2010, and its setting is in Poultney and East Poultney. It is about two sisters who have been estranged from one another. A bombshell announcement results in the younger sister returning to Poultney where she spends the summer helping her sister fix up an old bakery, as well as mending the broken pieces of their past.

From page 1 battered women’s shelter,” said Galante. “I met women there that changed my life—I went in as a girl and came out a woman.” This troubled experience gave life to the author ’s second novel, “Hershey Herself”, the tale of a 13-year old girl who attempts to hide the fact from her school friends that she and her mother are living in a women’s shelter. Galante remarried to Paul Galante; the couple had two children, Sophia and Joseph. As a mother, Galante pursued graduate studies and received the M.F.A. degree from Goddard College in Plainfield. Aside from writing, Galante also teaches high school English classes in Wilkes-Barre, Pa. “People ask me why I still teach, but I do it because I love it,” said Galante. “It has been rewarding. My students have become characters in some of my other

“The bakery is what used to be the Poultney Inn,” said Galante. “I decided to write about Poultney because I absolutely love the town. I consider Poultney to be a character in ‘The Sweetness of Salt’ because the beauty of the town is one of the things that helps brings these two girls back together. They share many meals at Perry’s and meet the people at the ‘table of knowledge’—those that know everything about the town.” Galante’s popularity is spreading not only into the curriculum in schools in California, Georgia, Massachusetts, and North Carolina, but is also gaining acclaim in getting her books on audio, in movies, and has sold foreign rights to her first two books. Advice for aspiring writers from Galante: “Don’t take no for an answer. Keep reading, writing, and go for your passion. Also, it’s important to have a good agent to get you into big houses.” To learn more about Galante’s work, visit her website at www.ceciliagalante.com.

10 - RUTLAND TRIBUNE

WEDNESDAY July 8, 2009

SADD From page 1 widespread the problem is- that stars of Broadway musicals have been known to stop in the middle of a song to tell a theatergoer to get off the phone. Justin Cram, a senior from Otter Valley, and Jon Schaff, a senior from Fair Haven dealt with the ringtone issue- all those weird and annoying ringtones that often drive people crazy. They also discovered that ringtones are a $500 million a year business, and that some of the 10 second ringtones that people download carry with them a contract of up to two years and a monthly rate of up to $15.99. Using cell phones to cheat was covered by Dan Ball of Rutland High School. He found that cell phones offer many new technologies to facilitate cheating, including web browsing for answers, texting the answers to a friend, and a host of other methods.Dan did find, however, that while cell phones did make cheating easier, they don’t make honest students cheaters. Nate Hance, a junior from Mill River, addressed the issues of misdirecting your text messages or phone calls to other parties, and how embarrassing that can be. He found two really pertinent stories, one involving Lily Allen, who he describes as England’s Paris Hilton, who took topless photos of herself and sent them to a guy with the same name as her boyfriend. The other involves a hapless Syracuse, N.Y., drug dealer whose text message with details of his upcoming large drug deal went accidentally to a police officer ’s phone. An important cell phone issue to teens is something called sexting- the sending of sexually explicit text messages to others or sending naked or partially undressed photos of oneself to peers. This portion was written, researched and presented by Joanna Lilly of Poultney High School and Erika Stocker of Mill River; they discovered that as many as 40 percent of teen girls may be involved. They also found out that in about 1 out of 6 cases, after a breakup, usually one initiated by the girl, the former boyfriend widely distributes the photos. Cody Hesse of Otter Valley Union High School investigated the use of cell phones while driving, a topic which is being looked at by state legislatures everywhere in the country. Cody found research that stated that the practice of driving while texting is so dangerous that it is statistically more dangerous than driving while drunk. Cantlin Eaton, a junior from Mill River, addressed the issues of using one’s cell phones in an emergency situation. While sometimes cell phones could be useful in avoiding a disaster, they can jam up the airwaves, so that emergency responders can not use theirs. Additionally, a new problem that is starting to become known is the use of cell phone cameras to take photos of accident victims or fire scenes, which are then bulk forwarded. Besides being a gross violation of the victim’s privacy, this sets in motion the possibility that someone will be notified of their loved one’s death by getting a grisly photo forwarded to them. The last issue that was dealt with was that of bullying by cell phone, which was researched by Ashley Barnes, a junior from Rutland High School. This problem has many different aspects- from just sending hurtful messages, to starting rumors (in one case a middle school girl was rumored to be carrying SARS; the school population avoided her), to taking unflattering photos of other students without their knowledge in the bathroom or shower. This behavior not only is detrimental to the school, it is also illegal. Following the Stafford Technical Center Student of the Marking Period Assembly, the group was asked to do a presentation to the West Rutland High School, which they did as members of Students Against Destructive Decisions. The SADD members also presented this program to about 350 7th and 8th graders and their teachers in two presentations at Rutland Middle School.
