Town Manager John Salomone His Take on the town
The Town Manager is required to live in Newington, but even if John Salomone didn’t hold that title, he would still settle here. “It’s sort of like if I was the president
of Ford and drove a Volkswagen,” laughs Salomone, who has been Newington’s Town Manager since 2006. What he likes about the town is its accessibility. “Newington is both welcoming See TOWN, Page 5

Jepsen closes Humane Society investigation By ALICIA WRIGHT
PUBLIC RELATIONS DIRECTOR CONNECTICUT HUMANE SOCIETY
Attorney General George Jepsen has closed an investigation into the handling of charitable funds by the Connecticut Humane Society and will take no further action at this time against the Society. While the interim report issued by the Attorney General in March, 2010 found no evidence that the Society entered into any specific financial transaction that was not related to the accomplishment of its charitable purpose, it also suggested a number of changes to existing business practices. The Society realized that the organization had an opportunity to improve in many areas and has since incorporated some of the suggestions and continues to

Gordon Willard, Connecticut Humane Society Executive Director says: “We are pleased to have this matter behind us as we continue to focus all our energy on our mission of caring for and finding loving homes for the animals that come through our doors.� The Connecticut Humane Society has been dedicated to serving the community for 130 years.

Shih-Tzu ‘Stormy’ makes progress in his fight to live
The Shih-Tzu, now affectionately named “Stormy�, that was discovered clinging to life at the Connecticut Humane Society in Newington on June 29 is making slow, but steady progress in his fight to survive. By the afternoon of July 1, Stormy had responded to IV fluid therapy, food, and water but was struggling with seizures. Although he had been able to stand unassisted, his condition continued to require 24-hour veterinary care. Dr. Steve Levy coordinated
admittance for Stormy at the Pieper Memorial Veterinary Center where he was placed under the care of Dr. Hammond, a Board Certified Veterinary Neurologist. Dr. Hammond, Dr. Olson and the rest of the Pieper Memorial staff were instrumental in bringing Stormy’s seizures under control and generous in providing the intensive care that Stormy continued to need. Stormy returned to the Fox Memorial Clinic, Connecticut
Humane Society’s pet hospital, on July 5. He is now able to stand and walk unassisted but is not yet out of the woods. He will be placed in foster care until such time as the veterinary team deems him healthy enough to be placed into a new home. The Connecticut Humane Society is actively involved with the Newington Police Dept. and Newington Animal Control in the ongoing cruelty and abandonment case that is being conducted.

Newington Electric Co. unveils new electric car division By ROBERT STORACE STAFF WRITER
N EW I N GTO N — Connecticut Electric Car is hoping to put a bolt into the Chevy Volt. Connecticut Electric Car, a new division within Newington Electric Co., will unveil two level 2 electric car charging stations at Blue Black Square in West Hartford Friday, July 22. The charging stations are a new and growing trend in Connecticut as more and more state residents plan on purchasing electric cars. As of this month, it is estimated that less than 300 Connecticut residents drive a hybrid Chevy Volt, the only electric car on the market in the state. The Volt runs on electric and gas. But the Nissan Leaf, to be unveiled in the state in October, runs only on electric. Upwards of 15,000 Connecticut residents are expected to be driving electric cars by the end of 2012,according to Bruce Smedick, site consultant for Connecticut Electric Car. Nationally, around
15,000 electric cars have been sold, most on the West Coast. And, President Barack Obama has called for the country to put one million electric cars on the road by 2015. “There is a tremendous amount of interest in these cars,” Smedick said Wednesday.“People are concerned about the environment, the cost of Rob Heyl | Staff fuel and they are Ed Ingalls, owner of Newington Electric and CT Electric Car, drives by the electric car chargmore aware today ing station at Northeast Utilities headquarters in Berlin. of issues related to average cost of $2.

for the charging stations. He did say that his company has been approached by a number of business outlets, including WestFarms Mall, Starbucks and Dunkin’ Donuts, about installing charging stations. Ingalls, who declined to discuss the company’s revenue, said it costs around $1,400 to install and wire a residential charging station and about $2,500 per unit for a commercial charging station. Will Lorenz, senior property manager at Blue Black Square, said Wednesday the shopping and residential district saw interest among clients. “Tenants park underneath the building and had expressed interest in this,” Lorenz said. “We expect this to be very popular.” As the electric car trend continues, Ingalls said the company plans on working closely with General Electric of Plainville, Northeast Utilities, as well as retailers and municipalities.

STATE REPORT
NEWINGTON — Police are seeking the public’s help in identifying two young males who vandalized the Police Department after the town’s fireworks display and festival Saturday night. A surveillance video shows the suspects entering the area of the
police station where prisoners are brought in by vehicle and one of the culprits throwing a cinder block through the window of a police Ford Expedition. The damage was spotted after an employee found a police vehicle license plate had been tossed into
the bushes. The surveillance video shows one of the men putting out a cigarette on a large “Newington Police Department” badge hanging on the outside of the building, and the two apparently being told by a civilian to leave the area.
The incident occurred Saturday night around 10 p.m. immediately after the town’s Extravaganza, which includes a festival and a fireworks display. One of the men was taller than the other with dark hair, wearing a green T-shirt, shorts and a baseball
cap on backward. The shorter of the pair was wearing a dark T-shirt and shorts. Anyone who may have information on the suspects is asked to call officer Ralph Chater at (860) 6668445. Callers are asked to reference case No. 120112285.

Highly decorated Army Veterans Group to NCTC Performing Arts hold 65th Annual Reunion in CT Theatre to produce ‘Bye “A monument would be a most fitting tribute to these men who never sought heroism but gave a tremendous amount of brave service to our nation.�
Connecticut, Maine, Rhode Island and Vermont.The division participated in four campaigns: Guadalcanal, Northern Solomons, New Guinea and Luzon. It is also the only division to serve in all theatres of the Pacific Campaign: South Pacific, Southwest Pacific and the Philippines. In 1950, the Division was once again federalized during the Korean War and was deployed to Germany to join the NATO forces in Western Europe.
DAVID THIEDE National Secretary/Treasurer 43rd Infantry Division Veterans Association
About the 43d Infantry Veterans Association The 43d Infantry Veterans Association, a non-profit organization comprising of over 1,200 members nationwide, was formed in 1945 and held its first reunion in Niantic, Connecticut in 1947. Reunions have been held annually since then. Past reunion attendees have come from California, Washington, Virginia, Maine, Vermont, Rhode Island, and New York. The veteran members now range in age from 70-90+ years old. For more information, contact David Thiede at (860) 301-6381 or Dutch2001@aol. com. Related information may be found at www.43rd-idm.org and www.43d-research.com.
and local veteran’s organizations, an amount of $16,000 has been raised to date for the monument. But a remaining $8,000 is needed to finish the memorial brick walk. (The date for the final delivery of the monument is late September 2011.) The monument dedicated to the 43d will be erected at the State Veterans Cemetery in Middletown, on Bow Lane. A memorial brick donation program is underway to help raise funds for a monument. For more information about how to donate to this memorial monument, please visit http://www.43rdidm.org.

BERLIN — The 43d Infantry Division Veterans Association will hold its 65th Annual Reunion on the weekend of Aug. 12 tp 14 in Rocky Hill. The major goal for this year’s reunion is to have a monument erected in dedication to this amazing group of soldiers who performed untold deeds of valor and heroism in the past. Descendant units are still on the front lines in combat today. “When the subject of WWII and the Pacific Theatre comes up, most people have heard about Pearl Harbor, Midway, and Iwo Jima. But few truly know about soldiers from here in Connecticut slugging it out in the thick jungles in the South Pacific, enduring hand to hand combat against the Japanese in unfamiliar places like Munda, Aitape and Luzon,� said David Thiede, National Secretary/ Treasurer of the veterans association. “A monument would be a most fitting tribute to these men who never sought heroism but gave a tremendous amount of brave service to our nation.� At present, Connecticut is the only state of the four (Maine, Rhode Island and Vermont) that has no 43d Division memorial monument. Many primary units of the 43d Infantry Division were from Connecticut, including the 43d Headquarters and Military Police from Hartford, the 169th Infantry Regiment, the 102d Infantry Regiment, the 192d Field Artillery Regiment and many others. With help of families of the 43d Infantry Division veterans

Mustangs reach .500 mark SPECIAL TO THE NEWINGTON TOWN CRIER
The Newington Mustangs are winding down the season and were looking to get back to a .500 record on Tuesday, July 19 at Legends Field against Cromwell. Coming off a tough late inning loss to Lebanon Lighting Saturday, July 16, the Mustangs needed a win to position themselves in a good place for the upcoming playoffs. With five games left there wasn’t much time left so a win on this night would help. Cromwell came in as a minor underdog but beat up on the Mustangs the last time they played so, not only was there standings importance in the game, but also a revenge factor as well. Mike “Gio” Giordano started for the Mustangs and looked to equal his no-hit performance in the season opener against Cromwell. His hopes were squashed almost immediately in the first when he allowed a walk, three hits and a run, but he struck out the next 2 batters to end the inning. The Mustangs answered right back when Sean Harrison singled, “Gio” was hit by a pitch and Mike Gwiazdowski drove in Harrison with a fielder’s choice to tie it at one. Giordano settled down and over the next 4 innings he struck out 8 more batters, walked 5, allowed only 2 more hits and no runs. “Gio threw a lot of pitches tonight but worked his pitches well with Dan (Lococo) behind the plate and shut Cromwell down when he had to,” said Manager Ron Manzione. The offense awoke for the Mustangs in the second, staking Giordano to a growing and eventual comfortable lead.
Andrew Gotowala started it off with a beautiful 2 out bunt for a hit and after Jonah Sanchez reached on an error, Dan Lococo cracked a booming double to deep center plating both runners. Harrison walked and after a stolen base, “Gio” singled up the middle scoring two more runs. After a stolen base he scored on a single by Phil Cocce and the lead was 6-1 after two. In the third, Mike Snyder started it off with a triple to deep right and scored on a line single by Trevor Colossa. In the fourth, “Gio” reached on a walk, went to third on a wild pitch and an error and scored on a fielder’s choice grounder up the middle by Gwiazdowski. The Mustangs finished their scoring in the 6th when Jared Clegg drove in Nick Aconfora from third on a groundout. Phil Cocce came in to relieve Giordano in the 6th and allowed an unearned run, getting the final out at home on an attempted steal, making a nice lunging tag to seal the victory. The win evens up the Mustangs’ record at 6-6 with 3 more games remaining in the regular season. “I was happy with the offense today. “Gio” helped himself with some clutch hitting and great baserunning and the rest of the team seemed to follow that lead,” said Manzione. “We were pretty efficient with our 10 hits and 9 RBIs today. I hope we can continue this to the playoffs”, he added. Next up for the Mustangs is Glastonbury at Legends Field on Wednesday, July 20.

Another exciting year at the Extravaganza comes to a close Continued from Page 1
many families who come as a tradition. One resident who introduced himself as David and his son Joshua have
been attending the Extravaganza for five years. “It’s all about the kids,” David said. Joshua’s favorite part was the moon bounce. The festival is planned for the entire
year in advance of the actual event. The day ended with a bang of fireworks and music for all to enjoy. “It is something we look forward to each year! We get to have family
and friends over and we watch the fireworks from our driveway,” said Vickie Jose of Newington. Boulay was happy that the weather held up all weekend and said that there were more rides than ever for the kids this year. There was lots of positive
feedback from attendees and the event was very successful, with approximately 30,000 people showing up. TrudeeJaeger,20,fromNewington was at the Extravaganza celebrating her birthday and also visiting friends on her summer break from college. “We go every year as a tradition,” she said. “The food and fireworks are my favorite part.”

It’s almost back-to-school time, use backpacks properly
(STATE POINT MEDIA) School may be a figurative pain in the neck for many children, but what about a literal pain in the neck — and back? These days, the answer is yes, and backpacks are to blame. Or more specifically, the improper use of backpacks. “The average child carries a backpack that would be the equivalent of a 39-pound burden for a 176-pound man, or a 29-pound load for a 132-pound woman,� says Dr. Rick McMichael, president of the American Chiropractic Association (ACA). “Growing children should only be carrying 10 to 20 percent of their body weight.� Heavy backpacks can negatively affect your child’s health by pulling on ligaments and muscles that cause neck and back pain and can
possibly cause deformity of the spine, according to the ACA. Parents who want to protect their children from these painful injuries can follow these tips: • Choose a backpack with wide, padded shoulder straps and a padded back. They should be adjustable so the backpack can be fitted to your child’s body. Straps that are too loose can cause the backpack to dangle uncomfortably and cause spinal misalignment and pain. • Encourage your child to use both straps. Lugging the backpack around by one strap can cause a disproportionate shift of weight to one side, leading to neck and back spasms. • Pack light or at least smart. A backpack with individualized compartments helps in positioning the contents most effectively,
keeping pointy objects away from the back. • Check to see if your children’s textbooks are available on e-readers — it’ll save their backs, as well as paper. Or consider buying a second set of textbooks for your student to keep at home, perhaps used ones. • Learn some back-strengthening exercises to build up muscles. Sit-ups are great since strong abdominal muscles can share the load and take the strain off back muscles. • Encourage your child or teenager to tell you about any pain or discomfort he or she may experience. Do not ignore any back pain in children or teenagers simply because they seem too young. If you or your child experiences any pain or discomfort resulting from backpack use, call your doctor of chiropractic, who is licensed
and trained to diagnose and treat patients of all ages. In addition, doctors of chiropractic can also prescribe exercises designed to help children develop strong muscles, along with instruction in good nutrition, posture and sleeping habits. You can find more backpack
C
safety tips and learn about treatment for back pain at www. acatoday.org/patients. And lastly, examine your own backpacks, handbags and diaper bags. Parents are as likely to suffer back pain from excess weight or improper carrying as are their children.
