CHIMNEY POINT — Help Wanted: Labors to assist in the construction of the Lake Champlain Bridge.

The $69.6 million project to reconnect New York and Vermont is expect-ed to create at least 200 jobs for local workers, according to offi cials.Flatiron Constructors of Colorado, the fi rm building the span, expects to hire about 50 local workers along with another 150-200 subcontractors.

Mark Mallett, Flatiron project manager, said a construction headquar-ters is being established on the Vermont side of the lake. Interested work-ers can apply there.

The federal government will pay 80 percent of the bridge construction cost, using stimulus money. New York and Vermont will each pay 10 per-cent of the cost.

The groundbreaking June 11 attracted two U.S. congressmen, both of whom touted the jobs to be created by the project.

“This will help create jobs in communities that desperately need them,” U.S. Rep. Bill Owens said. “I hope to see many people from my side of the lake, from my district, hired to work here.

“I am pleased to see progress being made on the new bridge across Lake Champlain,” he added.

“This is the next step in the process towards helping our local communi-ties recover from the economic impact of the bridge closure. I’m hoping this will create employment opportunities for

those looking for jobs in the area.”U.S. Rep. Scott Murphy agreed the bridge is vital to the local economy.

“I am honored to be here as we begin to rebuild this critical part of our local econ-omy,” Murphy said. “The loss of the bridge suddenly and severely reduced economic activ-ity throughout the region. I look forward to continuing to work with Governors (David) Paterson and (Jim) Douglas to connect our two states and rebuild this entryway to the North Country.”

The economic impact of the con-struction will reach Paterson said.

“Flatiron will not only employ people from the

region but will use equip-ment from the region,”

CarleyTwo year old. Spayed

Female. German Shep-herd mix. 40 lbs.

I am an energetic, en-thusiastic, and smart dogwho is eager to please. ILOVE my toys and reallyhope that my new familylikes to shop for me. Ihear there are some real-ly good squeaker toysout there. I was surren-dered to RCHS becauseof issues in my adoptivefamily that had nothingto do with me and I was brought here on June 16.

I do need some obedience training, including leashwalking but I already know SIT, DOWN, SHAKE, andFETCH. The staff here walks me with an EZ Walker Har-ness which really helps. My former family had a 2-year-old visiting grandson and I was very tolerant of the littleguy but for my real family I think the kids should be 5and up because I can get pretty excited when I play. I alsoneed an active family who spends a lot of time outdoors—I’m too smart to just hang around the house.

I am perfectly happy as an only dog and I am choosyabout what dogs I get along with, preferably submissive,easy going dogs, so introductions will be very important.

Tonya13 year old. Spayed

I came to the shelteras a stray and no onehas come to take mehome. Can you believeit? I am a very vocallady with a lot to say ifsomeone will listen. Iam affectionate and amlooking for a foreverhome. My new familywill need to make surethat I don’t get out andstart strolling around the neighborhood and get lost again.

I am a sweet and socialgirl who loves being withpeople. I enjoy playing,walking on leash, and Iknow SIT. I was surren-dered to RCHS because ofillness in my family andwas brought here on June10. I have lived with another dog before and would prob-ably also be fine with cats and children aged 5 and over.If you visit me you will notice not only how sweet I amand how I lean into you for petting, but also how I havesome hair loss on my hindquarters—this may be a food al-lergy or environmental allergy that you would have towork with a veterinarian to treat.

WEDNESDAY June 30, 2010 www.gmoutlook.com OUTLOOK - 3

By Lou Varricchionewmarketpress@denpubs.com

When Kathleen Colson was a national representative of theNational Democratic Socialist Party while attending St.Lawrence University during the radical 1970s, she neverdreamed that her future self would be bringing capitalist con-cepts of financial independence to some of Africa’s poorestwomen.

Following a first trip to Kenya while a student in the waningmonths of the ‘70s, Colson didn’t realize that the fleeting first vis-it to Africa would someday grow into both an emotional and hu-manitarian bond.

After living life as an anti-establishment ski bum out West,Colson found herself working in marketing and sales in the cor-porate world. But after a few return trips to Kenya by Colson,Hollywood’s 1985 tear-jerker motion picture “Out of Africa”burst upon the big screen. The Academy Award-winning filmglamorized wildlife and author Karen Blixen’s romantic wan-derings on the veldt; the film reignited Colson’s, and others, cu-riosity about traveling to Africa.

By 1986, Colson and her husband Doug developed a customsafari business called African Safari Planners. After a few yearsof growth, African safari travel dried up after Sept. 11, 2001 ter-rorist attacks. Business has gradually returned to pre-9/11 lev-els.

“My safari business is still going strong — and actually thisyear is my best year ever — but it really solidified a deeper com-mitment to Africa,” she said.

In 2005, at the urging of a safari friend and member of the Par-liament of the Republic of Kenya, she established the BOMAFund to help native women establish small businesses that willprovide them with incomes. Her husband Doug also got in-volved behind the scenes.

Now, three decades after her first African trek, Kathleen Col-son travels to drought-stricken northern Kenya twice a year. Shespends a month during each trip visiting key villages and gain-ing the trust of residents as the founder and executive directorof the BOMA Fund.

BOMA is a non-profit organization that provides skill trainingand seed capital to Africa’s poorest women. Colson helps thewomen establish small businesses that provide them with in-comes — a first step that helps improve their lives and the livesof their families.

As an example, when visiting BOMA’s “customers” in the re-mote village of Kirkuum, Kenya, Colson can be found sitting un-der the community’s thorn tree — a kind of “town square” gath-ering place. There she discusses life and personal woes, as wellas small business and personal savings ideas with BOMA’swomen entrepreneurs. Kirkuum’s women have led lives barely

clear of the Stone Age.Their lives as livestocktenders are at an end asdrought in the regionhas destroyed oldlifestyles. Small busi-nesses may include themaking and distribu-tion of locally madeproducts as well as oth-er items.

It’s clear that vil-lagers love Colson. Men and women call her Mamma Rungu, anickname of endearment and respect; the term means “Motherwith a Big Stick.”

Colson likes to carry a long marungu, a native wooden hunt-ing club that closely resembles an Iroquois war club.

“I got my nickname because the villagers think I’m prettytough,” she said. “Women aren’t supposed have these weapons.”

In the semiarid lawless backcountry of Kenya’s Great Rift Val-ley — where armed and violent Somali bandits and rustlers roamwith impunity — you may need more than a marungu. That’s whyColson is always accompanied by observant trail scouts andarmed security guards.

“Our guards carry AK-47 automatic rifles,” she said. “I am alsotrained to shoot one, if need be. And yes, we’ve been shot at bybandits with machine guns.”

So why would a middle-aged woman choose to put herself inharm’s way in a Third World country?

“It’s about social justice,” she said. “I was invited to Kenya bya close friend, and a member of Parliament, Joseph Lekuton. Imet Joseph through my safari business. When Joseph said to me,‘Come I need your help,’ how could I say no? Little did I knowit would turn into my life’s work.

Now Colson works 7 days a week, 12-14 hours a day, on theBOMA Fund.

“Kenya is seven hours ahead timewise this time of year, so Iam up at 4:30 a.m. every day. Staying in touch via telephone andthe Internet — plus making multiple visits there — is the onlyway I know to build a viable organization.”

The BOMA Fund is best described as a grassroots microfinanceorganization — the fund helps start small businesses through itssignature program called REAP or Rural Entrepruener AccessProject .

“So far, we have launched 260 businesses in northern Kenya,”she said. “Each has five people with an average of 25 children.

That’s 1,300 women earning an income outside of livestock. So,we impact 1,300 adults plus 6,500 children.”

It’s clear Colson is on a mission. She’s determined to bring self reliance to Kenya’s struggling

ethic groups, the Rendille, Samburu, Turkana, Elmolo and Ari-aal people.

“Foreign aid doesn’t work,” Colson said. “Billions of dollarslater, Africa is poorer than it was 30 years ago. Most aid organi-zations focus on intent not on outcomes. BOMA focuses on re-sults. If you’re not demanding that a charity show transparencyand accountability, of course the money is going to disappear.And I don’t blame the Africans.”

Here’s a lesson about enabling people to remain in povertythat could easily be applied here at home — “We have a tenden-cy to give things away in Africa. People don’t do that in Brazil,in China or in India. The goodwill industry in Africa has de-stroyed markets. There are hillsides of used clothing in Africa. Ithas destroyed the textile industry in Africa.”

In recognition of Colson’s tireless work, St. Lawrence Univer-sity awarded its illustrious 1979 alumna with a special humani-tarian award June 5.

While an award always looks nice on the mantle, there is aneven sweeter ward in the form of a humble testimonial about Col-son and BOMA that came from a burgeoning Kenyan business-woman named Sipirian Lalamaal:

“We decided not to eat this (BOMA grant) money, becauseeven if we were given a million shillings it would eventually befinished. This business gives us life,” she said.

One of the observ-able ways inwhich politicians

prove that they’re des-tined—indeed, obligated—to govern is their ability toproduce a well-turnedphrase.

Case in point from theR.E. Chicago School of Poli-tics: “Never let a crisis goto waste.” Its author usedjust seven words to de-scribe the skillful use ofevents to move public opin-ion toward his preferredideological position.

Historically conspiracytheorists had invented,much earlier than theEmanuellian phrase, short-er acronyms to express thesame crisis-utilization con-cept: LIHOP and MIHOP.

You’ll recognize thesefrom the discussions of thePearl Harbor attack almost70 years ago and the dis-cussions of the Twin Towersattack almost 10 years ago.I’ll now add a new one: MI-WOP—Make It Worse OnPurpose.

In terms of political in-tent, this falls somewherebetween Letting It HappenOn Purpose, which was theaccusation against FDR, orMaking It Happen on Pur-pose which is the accusa-tion against GWB.

In a recent column I out-lined a probable example ofMIWOP: the 1952 Presiden-tial Campaign of 1952; it fo-cused on subjects rangingfrom the Korean War (HSTin favor, DDE against U.S.involvement in any landwar in Asia) to the farm-economy and food-pricequestion (HST in favor ofcommodity parity price for-mula, DDE against and for“sub-parity” commoditypricing instead).

Part of the Eisenhowerplatform was the “foodcosts you abused con-sumers too much” argu-

ment and the promise toend full-parity pricing eventhough the inconvenientfacts showed that urban in-comes had been rising far-ther and faster than foodprices.

Truman’s successor des-ignate Adlai Stevensonavoided mention of the ur-ban-consumer food-costquestion in his platformand campaign—maybe be-cause his predecessor hadbeen a clear-cut supporterof full-parity for farm com-modities. He similarlyavoided mention of thehigher consumer prices itwould supposedly cause.

Was it by accident, in1951, that the “one poundof butter for two pounds ofgold” pop tune was widelyplayed on radio and thethen-new T.V. during theDDE campaign?

Was DDE creating a fakecrisis, and Making It WorseOn Purpose through incom-plete statistics—talkingabout food prices doubling,but not about wage levelstripling, from per-WWIIlevels—and Tin Pan Alleypublicity? You decide.

Since then, there havebeen many such politicalMIWOP moments, suspect-ed or obvious, major or mi-nor, nationwide or local.Here are two:

1. The year was 1968, thelocation was Sudbury inRutland County; the targetwas the last of Sudbury’sfour one-room schoolhous-es—a stone structureknown as the Hill School.

For 15 previous decades,it had served the elemen-tary grades but wasdeemed inadequate bythen-new SuperintendentLloyd Kelley (even thougha modern version of “multi-grading” was already atrendy new organizationaldevice in cutting-edge ele-

mentary and middle-schooldesign and operation).

The “crisis too good towaste” was the retirementof the Hill School’s soleteacher, admired by theparents and respected bythe students for her multi-grade teaching experience,skills, and evident student-achievement results; publicopinion demanded a re-placement with equal tal-ents and abilities.

Instead, it got—the su-perintendent’s choice withrubber-stamp schoolboardapproval—a brand-newteachers college graduatewho swiftly lost control.

The super ’s MIWOPstrategy was to enablechaos: to leave her twistingin the wind without guid-ance or support until, byChristmas, the parents sur-rendered; they acceptedschool closure and studenttransfer with another one-roomer shut-down. The tinyschools debate continues inthe rural U.S. and even innot-too-rural-anymore Ver-mont now; here’s one casewhere an educator ended itMIWOP-style for his ownideological reasons. Yearslater, he said so.

2. Most MIWOP eventsare uncertain: consider, forexample, the present Gulfof Mexico oil disaster. It’s areal (not a faked) crisis ofengineering origin with en-gineering remedies—manyof which haven’t been de-ployed because governmenthasn’t approved them.

Is the delay in govern-mental action in the gulftraceable to benign neglector malign intention? A re-cent Opinion Dynamic sur-vey says that 58 percent ofrespondents consider thenow-dominant politicalclass—which is arguably re-sponsible to a fiercely anti-oil, anti-carbon constituen-cy—“to have done less than

it could have” in enablingthe company and local gov-ernments to take action.

Where’s the line betweenjust Letting-It Worsenthrough incompetence andLetting It Worsen On Pur-pose or a more accusatorypossibility, Making It Wors-en on Purpose?

An engineering crisiswhich goes unsolved forideological reasons—equip-ment and methods prohibit-ed for deployment—may bean example of MIWOP, thelong- term objective beingthe permanent discreditingof the oil industry.

Think of the successfulfake-crisis of 1979—theThree Mile Island anti-nukecampaign.

Consider these 2010 deci-sions: 1. Reject skimmerboats from 13 countries; 2.Shut down the oil bargesfor a week for fire extin-guisher inspections; 3. Shutdown all deep- drillingeven while investing $2B inBrazilian deep drilling; 4.misrepresent expert opin-ion on deep drilling in offi-cial report. 5. Deny ap-proval of sand-dredging forbarriers.

Can MIWOP be the moti-vation for these decisionsor do you prefer to awardall five of them “plausibledeniability”?

I like the famous FDRquote: “Nothing in politicshappens by accident.”

Starting with this issue, the Rutland Tribunemerged with its sister paper the Green MountainOutlook. The new combined publication will allow

for an expanded free circulation area, something the paperhas been field testing during the last month.

The name change and increased circulation was an-nounced by Edward Coats, publisher of New Market Pressin Middlebury. New Market Press publishes the newlymerged Green Mountain Outlook and The Eagle of Addi-son County.

Coats said Green Mountain Outlook combines the for-mer Rutland Tribune with the Green Mountain Outlook ofsouthern Vermont now with a greatly expanded free dis-tribution zone that encompasses Rutland and Windsorcounties—from Brandon to Ludlow, including Chester, aswell as the greater Rutland region and the Castleton-FairHaven-Poultney area. Coats said the new publication willbetter serve readers and advertisers. “We felt the nameGreen Mountain Outlook better represented the expandedfootprint of the paper," stated Coats.

Readers will notice that changes include colorful newgraphics, more photographs, and increased communityand feature news, according to Coats. He added, "We alsoplan to expand the news coverage in the region and hopeto be making some additional announcements shortlywith regards to those plans once we have things more de-fined."

Paterson said. “When the first car goes across that bridge, it willbe a new era.”

The new bridge will be built at the same location as the pre-vious structure in order to minimize historic and environmentalimpacts on the surrounding area. Construction is expected to becompleted in September 2011.

The Modified Network Tied Arch Bridge will be a steel struc-ture with an arch along the center span. Steel used will be treat-ed for enhanced corrosion resistance. Multiple redundancieswill give the bridge at least a 75-year service life. Bridge com-ponents are designed to be easily replaceable to reduce mainte-nance costs.

Travel lanes will be 11 feet wide, with five-foot shoulders thatwill help accommodate larger trucks and farm vehicles, as wellas provide room for bicyclists. Sidewalks will be built on bothsides of the bridge.

The former Lake Champlain Bridge was closed last Octoberafter significant cracking was found in the structure’s supportpiers. It was demolished in December.

A free ferry service now operates in place of the bridge. Thatservice will discontinue when the new bridge opens.

In business since 1947, Flatiron has extensive experiencebuilding major interstate bridges all across the United States andin western Canada. The company rebuilt the Interstate 35Wbridge in Minneapolis, Minnesota, following its collapse in 2007.

The complete truthIknow lots of em at the neighborhood joint. Jim, the

deep thinking guy from up the street, sultry Sarahbehind the counter, the guitar playing carpenter, the

freshly graduated former school gal and her friend, coupleother folks. I say I know them. I don’t know them, but Iknow them … here at the neighborhood joint.

Eight o’clock in the evening—my workday is done anddone well, and on this jewel of a warm humid, comfort-able, 70 degree second night of the summer of 2010, at theneighborhood joint, I order my favorite; macaroni andcheese with ham, extra applesauce, hibiscus tea, and, afudgy brownie. Could an evening be more delightful?

Youngish girl I don’t know, slim, tight, dark, pretty—outof my league, comes in the joint, looks and walks directlyat me and sits in the seat to my right. I exaggerate makingcounter space for her, acting like I’d be as accommodatingif she were a he, or a not so good looking she. She orders abeer. She’s waiting for someone to join her, I think. Shemust be, pretty gal like her.

Guy who works at a ski shop in town I bought socks atyesterday, tells me a coworker recognized me, says shewas excited cause she thinks I’m a celebrity, says she wasscared to say anything. I tell him I remember, she was apetite gal, pregnant. I tell him to tell her hey, to tell herI’m flattered.

The ski shop guy and my exchange put the pretty girlwise, and half a minute later the pretty girl does the im-probable. She addresses me.

“Are you the guy in the television commercials?”I raise my attention from my macaroni and cheese and

offer her a, if it’s possible to be both these things at thesame time; perked up, subdued: “Yeah, I am.”

She hardly watches T.V., but watching last night withher boyfriend one of my commercial’s ran and he said“check this guy, he does Vermont really funny.”

I smile, she continues “It was the one where you eat theapple, the ‘Sunday One,’ one. And I walk in, and here youare.”

I act unimpressed while doing my best to fabricate whatI can of a faux embarrassed smile “oh yeah, the one whereI eat the apple.” She nods. I return attention back to mybowl of noodles.

Humans regularly define complete truth by what they

see from a distance, and atthe neighborhood joint, achurch, gas station, theatre,fish market, baseball dia-mond, hospital waitingroom, or anywhere really,me chatting up, or in thiscase I define it as, me beingchatted up, by a women,will more than likely be de-fined as Me hitting on thewomen. I don’t need to fuelthe reputation I have for hit-ting on the “young,” ones.(Reputation completely cul-tivated for the purpose of selling tickets to those watchingfrom a distance, proven effective I might add) So to skirtpresumed guilt, I play possum. I eat more, but don’t saymore. If the pretty gal and I are going to continue our rela-tionship, it’s all up to her.

I consider the odds, and past experience tells me it’sover between her and I.

Then, improbability strikes a second time, like lightening.“The Vermont thing is great, I like it. I’m from New Jer-

sey.” She speaks, and I’m so surprised, my right legtwitches, sending my knee into the underside of the count-er. It hurts. But it’s a good hurt.

Macaroni done, applesauce gone, still enough tea left towash down a brownie, the pretty girl and I dive head firstinto small talk.

What part of New Jersey … I like the macaroni andcheese here too … yes, it’s just the right amount of cheesy… the guitar player is good, I know him … aren’t theselong days beautiful … Jersey just gets too hot … .

Small talk goes well. We’re good at it. We take care tospace each change of topic with the appropriate amount oftime that would allow either of us to shift our bodies as asign we’re done talking. But you know, neither of usshifts.

Now what?To be continued.

BRANDON — It takes vi-sion and determination totake on a seemingly impos-sible goal. In the case ofForestdale resident MuffieHarvey, the seemingly im-possible goal is riding horse-back nearly the entire lengthof Vermont — alone.

But it’s not just the chal-lenge of a Paul Revere-stylemission — in Harvey’s case,it’s fighting breast cancerthat makes the challenge avery personal crusade. Har-vey, a member of the facultyof College of St. Joseph andshe is the campus dining di-rector with Fitz, Vogt andAssociates. Now she is rid-ing to honor her mother, acancer victim.

To demonstrate her com-mitment in the fight againstbreast cancer, Harvey is rid-ing her horse, Molly, thenear north-to-south lengthof Vermont. The long-dis-tance horse ride, already un-der way, will help raiseneeded funds for breast can-cer research.

On June 21, Harvey andMolly started at SouthernVermont College in Ben-nington. During a 24-hour-

long period June 21-23, fairweather aided the horsebackrider in accumulating miles.With ol’ Sol shining duringthat time, Harvey got lots ofthumbs up from auto andtruck passersby in down-town Manchester.

However, due to a threatof severe thunderstorms asshe approached the RutlandCounty line from the southJune 24, the rider had tohunker down to wait forclear skies.

“I am taking backroads,”Havey told the Outlook viacell phone. “I am followingthe Otter Creek in someplaces. I can’t talk with youfor very long. I am all by my-self with Molly. I am deter-mined to complete thisride,” she said.

Following her departureat the SVC campus, Har-vey’s stops will include Rut-land, Brandon, Middleburyand points north.

As a member of Vermont’shigher education communi-ty, Harvey has created a spe-cial “Campuses for Cancer”:part of the tour that includesthe starting point — heralma mater Southern Ver-mont College — her employ-er, Rutland’s College of St.Joseph, Middlebury College,

and a final campus stop atthe University of Vermont.

“Harvey was 15 years oldwhen her mother was diag-nosed with breast cancer,”according to Ken Sheldonwho is handling publicityfor the trek. “She has beenplanning this trip for 20years to honor the courage ofher mother, a two-timebreast cancer survivor.Muffie’s fundraising ridesupports the American Can-cer Society and the Pink Rib-bon Diva Foundation, a Rut-land-based agency that pro-

vides financial and logisticalhelp to cancer victims.”

For the next three weeks,Harvey will be riding tall inthe saddle. After a stop atUVM, she plans to end thelong, lonely ride on ChurchStreet in Burlington.

New V.A. clinic opens By Lou Varricchio

newmarketpress@denpubs.com

LUDLOW — Veterans living in southern Vermont willnow find it more convenient to visit the new U.S. Depart-ment of Veterans Affairs Community-Based OutpatientClinic located in downtown Brattleboro.

The V.A. clinic opened June 26 with Sen. Bernie Sanders(I-Vt.) on hand for the ribbon cutting ceremony.

Up until last week, southern Vermont veterans had totravel to either the V.A. hospital in White River Junction orto V.A. clinics in Bennington, Colchester, and Rutland forhealth care. The Brattleboro facility provides convenienceand ease of access to what is estimated to be 1,000 to 1,500veteran patients that are expected to use the new facility.

Sen. Sanders, a member of the U.S. Senate Veterans’ Af-fairs Committee and outspoken advocate for the medicalconcerns of veterans, told visiting veterans, guests, andnews reporters that the new clinic, and others like it acrossVermont provide timely access to quality health care closerto where veterans actually live.

“We must ensure our veterans have access to convenient,quality health care when they return to Vermont,” Sanderssaid.

Sanders said the new clinic operates as a satellite of theV.A. hospital in White River Junction.

Following Sanders greeting, Andrew LaCasse of the Vet-erans Affairs Department welcomed veterans to the clinic.

“Once your eligibility level has been determined,” hesaid. “Basic services are available free of charge or, in cer-tain circumstances, with a nominal surcharge.”

More local schools will be involvedwith Vermont FEED in the 2010-11 school year.

Theater in the Spotlight“Seussical” at Mt. Holly

By Lynne HerbstMount Holly Community Association

The Mount Holly Community Association is thrilled to beable to bring “Seussical” the musical to the children andfamilies in Mt. Holly and surrounding communities. Thisprofessionally produced production is part of the WestonPlayhouse second summer of bringing theater to communi-ties.

Last year, the Playhouse initiated a pilot program takingthe Young Company on the road to communities free ofcharge. The Mt. Holly Community Association jumped atthe chance to host the production of “Stuart Little” in theMt. Holly Library and Community Center. Attendance wasso popular that people were hanging from the rafters.

The Playhouse staff was pleased with the response fromcommunities and the attendance was wonderful but real-ized it was impossible to continue to travel to communitiesand offer the production free of charge.

The dilemma for the Mt. Holly Community Associationthis year was how they could possibly afford the fee.

The MHCA decided it could contribute $200 and then seeif they could raise the rest from other community organiza-tions.

The response was wonderful and best of all Shrewsburybecame involved in the project. The Mt. Holly Library, theShrewsbury Library, BRACC (Black River Area CommunityCoalition) and many community members from both Mt.Holly and Shrewsbury have contributed to the project.

Children exposed to theater are thrilled by the magic ofthe art form. Adults will tell you that they will always re-member the first play they ever saw. Watching a play takesour total attention and kids really focus on the story and ac-tion. As librarian, I see kids who love to read respondingto the stories when they come to life on the stage and for re-luctant readers it’s a real motivator.

Open to all children and families free of charge July 9 at6:30 p.m., the Weston Playhouse troop will perform “Seussi-cal” at the Mount Holly Elementary School. This wonder-ful story includes Cat in the Hat, Horton and Yertle the Tur-tle. They all come to life in this one-hour adaptation of thedelightful Broadway musical based on the books of Dr.Seuss. With its hilarious, heartwarming story about findingyour voice and expressing yourself, this fun family musicaloffers memorable songs and good times galore. Take thekids. You'll love watching their faces when they watch thecurtain go up for the first time.

Remember theater helps connect the head to the heart.

Local missleman helpsprotect the homeland

By Rich LamanceSpecial to the Green Mt. Outlook

MALMSTROM AIRFORCE BASE, Mont. — Theycall this part of Montana "BigSky Country," with rollingplains, few trees and lots of,well, sky. It's also where aVermont man calls home,with a job of protecting theU.S. in an area slightly larg-er than the state of Mary-land.

U.S. Air Force Staff Sgt.Shawn C. O'Grady, son ofRobert O'Grady of Lamb HillRoad, Wells, and Dale Sulli-van of Furnace Street, Poult-ney, is a missile alert facilitymanager at this intercontinen-tal ballistic missile base, one ofonly three remaining in the U.S. During the Cold War, theU.S. had hundreds of such missles bases.

O'Grady is assigned to the 490th Missile Squadron withthe responsibility maintaining the missile systems.

“I maintain, inspect, and repair the nuclear missile alertfacilities in rural Montana,” said O'Grady. “I am also re-sponsible for emergency generator operation, water andfuel system maintenance, and management of up to 30 se-curity and maintenance personnel.

“If we weren't here, the United States wouldn't have a nu-clear deterrence and launch capability,” he added.

For O'Grady and other airmen stationed here, Montana iseither one of the best places to be stationed or one of theworst. Montana can be a haven for the outdoorsman andtraveler with major national parks like Glacier and Yellow-stone just a few hours away. For others, being in an out-of-the way place like Malmstrom can make a tour seem iso-lated.

“Montana has a very diverse landscape and climate,” saidO'Grady. “I spend my time off taking my children hunting,fishing, and camping.”

O'Grady has been in the Air Force for 10 years. “I have been stationed at Dyess Air Force Base, in Abi-

lene, and Andersen Air Force Base in Guam before trans-ferring to Malmstorm,” he said.

‘Sasquatch’ in the North CountryBy Lou Varricchio

newmarketpress@denpubs.com

CASTLETON — Do creatures long considered extinct stillstalk the Earth? Tim Albright of Castleton thinks so.

Albright, an amateur cryptozoologist (a person who stud-ies legendary animals), has been searching for Bigfoot — akaSasquatch as the ape-like creature is known in Native Amer-ican legends of the Pacific Northwest.

The 67-year-old retired security guard got interested inBigfoot when he learned about sightings of the beast nearVanderburg Mountain (West Mountain) near Whitehall,N.Y. and in the so-called Bennington Triangle surroundingGlastonbury Mountain in southern Vermont.

“Bigfoot has a very wide range,” Albright said. “There arereports of the creature in the Adirondack foothills as well asin the Taconic and Green Mountains.”

There are organizations focused on Bigfoot in New Eng-land and New York — the best known being NESRA, theNortheast Sasquatch Researchers Association — but Al-bright prefers to work alone in the woods dressed head-to-toe in hunter camo with a camera and portable tape recorder— and plenty of DEET insect-repellent.

“Some of the research groups have good intentions, butthen they go barreling into the woods with ATVs and kidsin tow,” Albright said. “Heck, that’s a sure way of chasingaway Sasquatch. These creatures are very secretive.”

Albright said there was a well publicized 1976 bigfoot en-counter made by Whitehall, N.Y., police officer, Brian Gos-selin along Abair Road; the road is located between FairHaven and Whitehall off County Road 11 (WashingtonCounty, N.Y.). The rural road has been the center of othersightings since Gosselin’s famous encounter.

The Abair Road encounter was featured on “UnsolvedMysteries,” a popular television show of the 1990s hostedby the late actor Robert Stack. Millions of viewers learnedabout the Whitehall creature — but was it Bigfoot or some-thing less exotic?

Albright said Paul Bartholomew, a Whitehall researcher,proposed an ordinance to protect Bigfoot in the town ofWhitehall back in 2004.

“Paul wrote the excellent book “Bigfoot: Encounters inNew York and New England” which inspired me to searchfor the creature locally,” he said.

According to Albright, NESRA researchers explored theWhitehall-Fair Haven region in search of Sasquatch as re-cently as 2005.

“There’s sure a lot of interest in Bigfoot around here; Of-

ficer Gosselin wasn’t the only well-respected member of thecommunity to see Bigfoot up close,” Albright added.

According to Albright, Bigfoot sightings have been re-ported here as far back as the First Nation Iroquois.

“There are legends of mysterious stone giants as well assightings of ape-like giants all along the St. Lawrence Riverand on through the Great Lakes,” he noted. “Even Samuelde Champlain reported seeing a Sasquatch in Canada dur-ing the 1600s.”

Albright’s deep woods adventuring has turned up sever-al clues. He said he has found evidence of a giant apelikecreature that freely crosses forested lands between U.S.Route 7 in Rutland County, Vt., and the eastern shore of LakeGeorge, N.Y.

In Albright’s possession, he claims, is a plaster cast of afootprint he found along the shore of Vanderburg Pond, onthe west side of Vanderburg Mountain (West Mountain) nearWhitehall.

“The footprint looks nearly identical to the giant prehis-toric ape Gigantopithecus blackii,” he said. “This hairy guywas the original King Kong of the Ice Age. Cavemen proba-bly tangled with him.”

Albright declined to show the footprint cast which he saidis at his brother ’s house in Lancet, R.I., for safe keeping.

According to Jack Rink, associate professor of geographyand earth sciences at McMaster University in Canada andhominoid expert, Gigantopithecus died out 300,000 years ago.The huge ape or hominoid measured 10 feet tall and weighedup to 1,300 pounds.

“Gigantopithecus was in the landscape with Homo erectusup until 300,000 years ago, at a time when humans were un-dergoing a major evolutionary change. Guangxi province insouthern China, where the Gigantopithecus fossils werefound, is the same region where some believe the modernhuman race originated,” according to Rink.

But Rink, like many scientists, dismisses amateur claimssuch as Albright’s that Gigantopithecus, aka Sasquatch, is stilla living species.

Albright said his local Bigfoot is big.”You should visit Hartwick College to see the Gigantop-

ithecus statue on the campus,” he said. “This will give youan idea of the size of Whitehall’s creature.” New York artistKevin Anderson sculpted a full-size, lifelike version of theextinct hominoid in 2008.

Despite scientific skepticism regarding claims of livinganimals that should be extinct, Albright is not giving up hiscrypto crusade.

“I’ve talked to a few paleoanthropologists and while theydon’t say it out loud, I know they think I am nuts,” he said.“But I know. Bigfoot is alive and well and living in the NorthCountry.”

Minor quake rumbles Vermont By Lou Varricchio

MIDDLEBURY — A 5.0 Richter magnitude earthquakewas felt in western Vermont. The minor earthquake occuredat 1:41 p.m. June 23, according to the Vermont and U.S. Ge-ological Surveys.

Vermont State Geologist Lawrence Becker said the quake’sepicenter was located 12 miles below the Earth’s surface ofsouthern Ontario, Canada, close to the Ontario-New York-Quebec border.

“I felt it here in Montpelier,” Becker said. “I was in mydesk chair and then it started rocking.”

But not everyone felt the quake.“Sorry, I didn’t feel a thing,” said Marty Semo, owner of

Semo Greenscape, a lawn care service based in East Mid-dlebury. “I was mowing a lawn at the time it supposedly hit;I didn’t feel a thing. I first heard about it while listening tothe radio news during the Rush Limbaugh Show about anhour later.”

Becker said the last official “event” in Vermont was April20, 2002, when a quake centered near Plattsburgh, N.Y., wasfelt throughout the Champlain Valley.

The temblor was felt across many sections of the north-eastern United States as far south as northern Pennsylvania.No reports of damage were reported in Vermont or else-where in the northeast.

The last large earthquake in Vermont occured April 20,2002.

According to Becker, the 2002 earthquake was a 5.1 mag-nitude and was centered off the New England coast.

The Vermont Lake Monsters won 7 of their first 10 games and asof Monday morning stood at 7-3 with a two game lead over the sec-ond place Connecticut Tigers in the New York - Penn League’s Sted-lar Division.

The effort has been pretty much a team effort, which bodes wellfor Vermont if they lose some key players due to promotion.

Hurler Bobby Hansen is the only individual to lead the leaguein a major category. His 17 strikeouts in 10 1/3 innings of work wastops in the league as of Monday morning. The last two of the firstten games was a two game split in Connecticut last weekend.

Below is a wrap up of the short series:In the opener last Saturday Tiger’s pitching held Vermont to just

4 hits, while their offense banged out a dozen hits to score 7 runsand cruised to a 7-1 win. Catcher Julio Rodriguez led the Tiger’soffense going 3-for-3 with a double and he drove in a run. Short-stop Brett Anderson drove in a pair of runs with his solo hit in 4trips to the plate. Centerfielder Jeff Rowland, third baseman JoshAshenbrenner, first baseman James Robbins and designated hitterMatt Perry all drove in single runs for the victorious Tigers.

Starter Josue Carreno picked up the win to go to 1-1 on the year.Carreno pitched five innings of shutout baseball, allowing just twohits while striking out 7 and walking just two. He was relieved byDrew Gagnier, who threw two innings of hitless baseball, allowingone unearned run with two strikeouts and two walks. Kevan Hessthen finished the game strong for Connecticut. Hess pitched the fi-nal two innings, striking out four of the final six outs, with two hitsallowed but he issued no free passes.

Offensively there wasn’t much good news for Vermont. Short-stop Jason Martinson

Was the most productive at the plate going 1-for-2 with a pair ofwalks, and he scored the Lake Monsters only run. Third basemanStephen King, catcher Cole Leonida and designated hitter HendryJiminez all had singles for Vermont to complete their offensive out-put in this one.

Starter Bobby Hansen suffered the loss for Vermont allowing 6runs (5 earned) on 10 hits in just four innings of work. Hansen, wholeads the NY-Penn League in strikeouts did register 7 more as hefell to 1-1 on the year. He was relieved by Mark Herrera who went3 innings, allowing just 2 hits and 1 unearned run with 2 strikeouts.Neil Holland finished up for the Lake Monsters with one inninghitless baseball that included a strikeout.

On Sunday the Lake Monsters scored three times in the third andfourth innings to jump out to a 6-0 lead, and from their cruised toa 7-3 win to earn a split in the two game series. Second basemanJimenez led Vermont’s offense by going 3-for-4 with an RBI and a

run scored. Catcher David Freitas and center fielder Connor Roweadded a pair of hits each in four trips to the plate, and matchedJiminez by driving in a run and scoring once apiece. Fist basemanRonnie Labrie chipped in with two hits in his five plate appear-ances with a double and an RBI.

Starter Shane McCatty turned in a strong performance for Ver-mont, but didn’t get the decision because he only worked four in-nings. In those four innings he only allowed two hits and no runswhile striking out two. Ironically he was relieved by ChristopherMcKenzie, who despite being the least effective pitcher for the LakeMonster, picked up the win to become 1-0 on the young season.McKenzie worked three innings and gave up three runs on four

hits. Cameron Selik finished up for Vermont by pitching two hit-less innings with four strikeouts and a pair of walks.

Anderson blasted a three run homerun for the Tigers, thus ac-counting for all their runs in this one. Right fielder Ryan Enos addedtwo hits in four trips to the plate and scored a run. Starter LanceBaxter suffered the loss and dropped to 0-2 on the year. Baxterpitched the first three innings and allowed three runs on five hitsand three walks. His ERA rose to 10.50 after this outing.

Vermont hosted the TriCity Valley Cats for three games this pastMonday through Wednesday. They then hit the road Thursday forthree games in Lowell before returning home on July 4 for a holi-day clash against the Williamsport Crosscutters.
