HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL

Nighthawks improve to 2-1 with rout

By Ellis Santoro Special to the Record-Journal

NORTH HAVEN Aready losing 350, Platt ran the ball into the red zone only to see a wall of North Haven de fenders and zeros on the clock Fri day, Sept. 23. A simple tackle would have ended the half right there.

Nighthawks 49 Panthers 0

Instead, the ball carrier fumbled and North Haven's Nicholas Harkins ran the ball 80 yards the other direction for the defensive touchdown. The half ended 42-0 and not much changed after that in this CT High School Football Alliance game be tween the visiting Panthers of the CCC and the Nighthawks of the SCC. North Haven finished off a 490 victory that puts the Nighthawks at 2-1 and Platt at 1-2.

It was about as lopsided as it could get from the start. Platt started with the ball and went 3-and-out, punted and the Nighthawks drove down the field to reach the end zone, as they would on each of their first six drives, plus the one score just before half on defense.

“We came out with a lot of energy,” said North Haven head coach Tony Sagnella. “It really was a little touch-

and-go in the beginning. They were winning some snaps; we were win ning some snaps. But as the half went on, we started to gain a little bit of momentum.”

North Haven's offense featured all rushing plays until its 16th play of the game, when it unleashed the passing game, with a 27-yard strike by quarterback Jeffrey Karavas.

By Nicole Zappone The Citizen

Since the beginning of the year, Michele Ziemba-Bolduc and her husband, Dave Bolduc, have been busy making dog treats with no sugar or added preservatives.

The North Haven residents’ enter prise is called Fine Fettle Pets.

Recently, the couple announced they were teaming up with Sylvia Cicarelli of Sylvia’s Confection Connection. Now, when dog own ers stop by the Washington Av enue bakery, they can pick up something sweet for their pups, as well.

Michele Ziemba-Bolduc, a special education teacher in Hamden,

said the inspiration for Fine Fettle Pets started in her classroom. When COVID hit, Michele said baking was restricted in school. But she still wanted to teach her students some kitchen skills.

“I have three dogs at home, and I thought, why not make dog treats,” Michele said.

North Haven PD utilizing ‘Live911’ technology

Citizen report

In a recent social media post, the North Haven Police Department said it is now "live-streaming 911 emergency calls directly to officers in the field in real time. Officers can now hear the caller’s actual words and voice provid ing the sense of urgency, small details, that may not be otherwise provided, and immediate updates on the situa tion and location. The officer not only hears the incoming emergency, but al so the caller’s location is immediately identified on a map."

This technology, developed by Higher Ground, Inc., is called “Live911.” The NHPD said it is the first agency in Connecticut to implement this pro gram.

"Live911 closes the 911-time gap be tween police call-taker to First Re sponders by allowing officers to imme diately hear incoming 911 emergency calls in their geographical area.

“I’m the baker, and Dave is more like the business guy,” she added.

While the treats were made primarily at her home, Michele also did some bak ing at school to teach stu dents how to follow a recipe.

When Michele and Dave dis covered that their own dogs enjoyed these treats, they continued producing them. Soon after, Michele started selling the dog treats at farmers markets and they were a big hit.

“At one of the events we went to, I was glad Dave was with me because so many people came to buy treats,” Michele said. “Normally, I work the booth alone, but there were so many people and dogs buying all sorts of things.”

Fine Fettle Pets offers nine different treats varying in size and shape, and more options are in the works. “I had to go back and make them smaller, so that little dogs could eat them too,” Michele said.

Michele came up with the recipes herself, and worked with state officals to make sure Fine Fettle Pets was do ing things by the books.

“It’s a lengthy process, and each recipe has to be regis tered,” she said. “I have peo

ple begging me to make more recipes, and I tell them they have to wait.”

Dave said the couple's three dogs a black lab, an Aus tralian cattle dog and a Shepard coonhound mix are more than happy to take part in the tasting process.

“Our black lab is a service dog,” Dave pointed out. “We

often take in service dogs from a Long Island program where we take the dogs at eight weeks old and give them back at 18 months old.”

To purchase treats from Fine Fettle Pets, visit Sylvia’s Con fection Connection at 323 Washington Ave., or call 203903-2494.

Live911 allows the officer to obtain more information for a better response plan and increased de-escalation skills providing better ser vice to the community," the NHPD stated. "Additionally, a feature within Live911 called ‘Campus Alert’ notifies all officers, regardless of

location, immediately if a 911 call occurs on a school campus. If there is an emer gency on a school campus, time is critical, and Live911 provides officers those criti cal seconds that can save lives."

The website Live911.com states: “When a call is ur gent, and they are free to as sist, officers can see the lo cation of the caller on a map and move in the direction of

the incident giving them a head start and allowing them to develop a response plan while driving to a call. All the while, first respon ders are hearing the ... caller and the call taker, including answers to questions, firsthand descriptions, emotion al tones and background noise on the scene. Live911 improves response times and increases situational awareness like never before.”

Wallingford is home to one of Southern New England’s pre miere haunted happen ings: The Trail of Terror. It’s so spooky that I have not walked through it since I was in high school because I don’t like be ing scared. However, if you would enjoy a 45 minute walk through a legendary twisty, winding outdoor haunted trail in the woods this is for you.

One of the most popular things to do during the fall in New England is to walk a corn maze. I can’t recall the last time I got lost in one, but this year I hope to take my girls on an adventure.

Can’t find a corn maze? There are still some sunflower field mazes standing during the fall, too.

7. Go Leaf Peeping in New England

There are so many incredible places to look at leaves around New England some may be right in your own backyard I love to drive around with my daughters and call out the col ors we see on the trees throughout the season. It's re ally amazing when we see the same tree show leaves of mul tiple colors.

These are the top leaf peeping places in Connecticut: Nor folk, Kent, Mohawk State For est, Simsbury, Pachaug State Forest, Mystic and Sleeping Giant.

How alternative investments may fit your portfolio

By Jeff Jolly

The state of the markets in 2022, where both stocks and bonds experienced declines in the first half of the year, may have you thinking about other investing options. If you’re wondering how to further diversify your portfo lio, alternative investments are one option to consider. They include real estate, commodities, hedge funds, private equity and private debt, and venture capital.

Before you dive in, here’s what you should know about these nonconventional as sets. You should also be sure to seek the advice of a trust ed financial advisor who can help you evaluate your risk tolerance, time horizon and whether alternatives could have a suitable place in your portfolio.

A different kind of investing

Alternatives, as the name implies, are not mainstream investments, and if included in a portfolio, should only make up a small portion of it (no more than 15 to 20 per cent is one rule of thumb, but the appropriate amount may vary).

Commodities can include natural resources such as crude oil, wheat, corn and coffee. Trading typically oc curs on the futures market, which means the invest ments are more complex than typical securities. Real estate includes publiclytraded real estate investment trusts (REITs), which trade on the stock market, or pri vate REITs, which have dif

ferent investment require ments. Investors may also invest directly in land or property.

Private equity, private debt, hedge funds, and venture capital are available to indi vidual investors through professionally-managed funds. These segments of the market were off limits to all but the wealthiest investors and institutions until recent ly. Such assets are more ac cessible today than they were in the past and, like other forms of alternatives, can play a role in your port folio.

The potential benefits of alternatives

The primary benefit of in cluding alternatives in your asset mix is portfolio diversi fication. An effectively diver sified portfolio can help you generate more consistent in vestment performance over time. Historically some types of alternatives have shown the potential to hedge against the negative impact of weaker performance peri ods in stock and bond mar kets. Further, alternatives may be a hedge against higher inflation. These types of assets have the potential to keep closer pace with ris ing living costs.

Potential challenges with alternative investments

Alternative investments are a long-term portfolio position. You need to be certain that you won’t need to liquidate

UConn removes interim tag, names Maric president

Maric officially succeeds Thomas Katsouleas, who re signed in July 2021 after serving less than two years as UConn’s president. A na tive of the former Yugoslavia,

Maric joined UConn’s facul ty in 2010 and taught in the Department of Chemical & Biomolecular Engineering and the Department of Ma terials Science and Engi neering.

Dan Toscano, chairman of the Board of Trustees, said Maric emerged as the best choice for the job after a na tional search that included more than 150 candidates.

“She is a force of nature: deeply committed to UConn, determined to get results, and all-in when it comes to leading this institu tion into a future that will be defined by success and achievement,” Toscano said at the board meeting.

Maric becomes the first in ternal candidate to be named president since Har ry Hartley in 1990 and is the

school’s second female pres ident. The first, Susan Herb st, preceded Katouleas and served from 2010 to 2019.

“We're not a spread team, but that doesn't mean we don't work on the passing game, ” Sagnella said. “We're committed to the run, but we look for our opportuni ties to throw the football.”

Those two passes were the only two thrown by North Haven for the entire game. It was all about the traditional North Haven single-wing run game.

North Haven featured directsnap rushes on nearly every play. The first drive featured eight of them, capped off by a 5-yard touchdown run by

Karavas. Karavas ended the game with one passing TD and three rushing TDs.

Meanwhile, North Haven's defense and special teams did their job. As a result, North Haven's offense never started a drive behind its own 38. The Nighthawis started their fifth drive at the opposing 32 thanks to a blocked punt following a 3and-out that included their third sack of the game.

The second half opened with a kickoff return by Jake McCreve that he ran all the way inside the Platt 10 to set up yet another touchdown and promptly stifle the chances of a miraculous sec ond-half comeback by Platt.

The Panthers went 3-andout on three of their five first-half drives. Once, they got off six plays before punt ing.

They used 11 on their bid just before halftime only to see it end with the fumble return.

“They worked their butts off,” Platt head coach Jason Bruenn said of North Haven’s performance. “They’re a no-nonsense, getafter-it type program. We have a lot to learn. Our kids have to learn from the expe rience today.”

Bruenn's offense never got going. Each big throw by quarterback Avery Robinson fell to the ground. Their star running back from last sea

son, Amari Robinson, still had a noticeable cast on his right hand and did not carry the ball. He won’t be at full strength for at least a few more weeks, according to Bruenn.

“He’s a great running back, but it didn’t affect us,” Bruenn said of missing Amari Robinson from the of fense. “Their defense is wellcoached. They take a second fiddle to their offense, but they really shouldn’t.”

North Haven plays host to Shelton Friday night, Sept. 30, the second of four straight home games for the Nighthawks.

Platt, meanwhile, will look to rebound in Plainville.

WEST HARTFORD Lag ging in public opinion polling, especially among women, Republican guber natorial candidate Bob Ste fanowski went on the offen sive Tuesday, accusing Democratic Gov. Ned Lam ont of lying that he would pose a risk to Connecticut’s abortion rights law.

In one of the testiest mo ments in the first of two planned gubernatorial de bates, Stefanowski accused Lamont of “trying to scare women ” in order to distract voters on economic issues.

“Actions speak louder than words,” said Lamont, stress ing how there’s no ambigui ty about where he and Lt. Gov. Susan Bysiewicz stand on the abortion rights issue. “You can trust us. We’re go ing to fight for your right to choose.”

A recent Quinnipiac Poll showed Lamont leading Ste fanowski among likely wom en voters, by a margin of 63to-35 percentage points. A similar gender gap has ap peared in other public polling.

“I hate to say it. He’s been lying for four months about my position. I can’t say it any clearer: I’m going to protect a woman’s right to choose. I don’t know what else I can say,” said Ste fanowski, who is among a small number of Republican candidates nationally who support abortion rights but have been painted by Democrats as someone vot ers can’t trust.

Lamont countered that Ste fanowski, who supports en acting a parental notification law in Connecticut, is the

Other highlights of Tues day’s debate sponsored by NBC 30 and Telemundo Connecticut include:

Inflation

Stefanowski, who has made affordability a key piece of his campaign, reiterated his plan to provide tax relief us ing roughly $3 billion of the state’s nearly $6 billion in surplus funds. Among other things, he has called for re pealing the 1% meals tax, re

“It’s unconscionable that we’re sitting on $6 billion when people are out there right now only filling half of their oil tank because they need food,” he said.

Lamont stressed that he signed into law a range of tax cuts that took effect this summer to help taxpayers grapple with inflation. He al so touted efforts to pay down the state’s unfunded pension costs, a move he predicted will ultimately save about $450 million an nually. Lamont also defend ed setting aside billions to protect the state if there is an economic recession.

“I think we do not want to go back to the bad old days when we spent everything we could and hope tomor row will be better, going

from boom to bust,” he said.

Independent candidate Rob Hotaling said he agrees with reducing pension debt, but suggested using a small por tion of the surplus to ad dress the state’s education achievement gap and make infrastructure investments.

Crime

A day after their release, La mont touted the state’s new crime data that shows be tween 2020 and 2021 there was a 3% reduction in over all crime. He said it was a positive trend, “despite some fearmongering” voiced by politicians. While he not ed his efforts to fund addi tional training classes of state police troopers and provide more funds for state and local police, Lamont ac knowledged that improve ments can be made.

Stefanowski argued that many residents still don’t feel safe and blamed in part Lamont’s support of a recent police accountability law that he said has “decimated police forces across the state.”

$100M lawsuit filed over injuries suffered by man in police van

By Pat Eaton-Robb Associated Press

Lawyers for Randy Cox, a Black man who was para lyzed from the chest down in June when a police van without seat belts braked suddenly, filed a $100 mil lion lawsuit Tuesday against the city of New Haven.

Cox, 36, was being driven to a police station in the city June 19 for processing on a weapons charge when the driver braked hard, appar ently to avoid a collision, causing Cox to fly headfirst

into the wall of the van, po lice said.

Civil rights attorney Ben Crump said Cox’s legal team is still in talks with the city but filed a federal negligence lawsuit Tuesday in U.S. Dis trict Court to make sure Cox is compensated for his suf fering.

“If we say we respect life and respect Randy Cox’s life ex periences and people like Randy Cox, similarly situat ed, then we have to show that by action, not just by rhetoric,” Crump said.

“Not just say we care about Black lives, but we have an actual duty in New Haven and throughout America to show that we believe Black lives matter.”

In the lawsuit, the city and the officers involved in Cox’s transport are accused of negligence, recklessness, use of excessive force, denial of medical treatment and the intentional infliction of emo tional distress.

Cox’s supporters say the po lice mocked his cries for help after he was injured and accused him of being drunk and faking his in juries.

Police video shows the offi cers dragged him by his feet from the van and placed him in a holding cell at the police department before paramedics finally took him to a hospital.

“The treatment of Mr. Cox while in the custody of the New Haven Police Depart ment was completely unac ceptable, and the City of New Haven is deeply com mitted to doing everything within its power to ensure an incident like this never happens again,” Mayor Justin Elicker said.

Lawsuit

LaToya Boomer, Cox’s sister, said, “We don’t want any lip service; we want action. The action can’t come from me, it has to come from the peo ple have those jobs, being the mayor or the police commission or someone with any of those titles. I’ll be waiting.”

The case drew outrage from civil rights advocates like the NAACP, along with compar isons to the Freddie Gray case in Baltimore. Gray, who was also Black, died in 2015 after he suffered a spinal in jury while handcuffed and shackled in a city police van.

Five officers were placed on administrative leave in Cox’s case.

New Haven officials an nounced a series of police reforms this summer stem ming from the case, includ ing eliminating the use of police vans for most prison er transports and using marked police vehicles in stead. They also require offi cers to immediately call for an ambulance to respond to their location if the prisoner requests or appears to need medical aid.
