The first Tibetan Buddhist nunnery inNorth America was consecrated in Lin-coln on Sept. 11. On a day which marksa violent act of aggression in the name ofreligion, it is a promising commitmentby a religious community dedicated toPeace Practice and Service.

Abbess Khenmo Drolma refers to theVajra Dakini Nunnery as a monastery forwomen and compassion college.

His Holiness Drikung Kyabgon Chet-sang Rinpoche, head of the DrikungKagyu lineage of Tibetan Buddhism,conducted the ceremony. Also consecrat-ed was the White Tara shrine, built ear-lier this summer at the Peace Village. Aparade featuring music by the VermontUkulele Society escorted the White Tarastatue where it was installed in theshrine dedicated to her. White Tara is thehealing and long-life female emanationof the Buddha.

Welcoming His Holiness were Khen-mo Drolma and other religious notables,including Rev. David Wood, pastor ofthe United Church of Lincoln, and Ven-erable Dhyani Ywahoo, Native Ameri-can Elder and Buddhist master. Rev.Wood welcomed both His Holiness andthe nunnery to the community, makingreference to the need for peace and

Editor’s note: This report is part of an ongoing summer seriesfeaturing area farmers markets.

This summer has been a boon to local farmers markets.Abundant sunshine and warm weather helped produce abumper crop of tomatoes, sweet corn, tomatoes, and otherlocal produce.

On hand to entertain late summer shoppers at the Hines-burg Lions Club’s Farmers Market last week—located alongRoute 116 in the heart of Hinesburg—were Vermont per-formers John and Marge Butterfield.

The Butterfields have been playing together their 38 yearsof married life. They especially like to play the Carribean-style music because John was brought up in Jamaica al-though he spent his senior year of high school in Springfield,Vt. They play in six different farmers markets in Vermont.

Marge hails from the Albany, N.Y., area and works as aparalegal for Hinesburg attorney Joseph Fallon. John, an en-gineer, is part owner of Hallam Associates Consulting Engi-neers.

Both the Butterfields are licensed pilots and often fly theirCessna 182 four seater plane to song dates.

Coming up in the remaining weeks of the Hinesburg Farm-ers Market:

The professional singing duo, “Rik and Bec”, will performat the Hinesburg Lions’ Farmers’ Market on Thursday, Sept.16. The concert begins at 5 p.m.

Rebecca Padula (Bec) lends her rich alto voice to a varietyof song styles including over 40 of her own compositions.She has opened for such singers as Patty Larkin and RachaelBissex. She also is a filmmaker and made a documentary ofVermont folksinger Margaret MacArthur.

Together with Rik Palieri, the duo will offer a program ofballads, blues and banjo tunes for the entertainment of thepopular market’s customers and vendors.

Palieri, a resident of Hinesburg, also writes original songsand plays a host of instruments including the mouth bow, 6and 12 string guitars, the Native American flute and a rareset of Polish bagpipes. He travels frequently in the U.S. andEurope and recently retuned from an overseas tour.

The One-World Library Pro-ject of the the Lawrence Memo-rial Library in Bristol will hostMount Abraham Union HighSchool students who willpresentd a summary of a recenttrip to Asia, titled, “ExploreLife Across the Pacific”. Thevent will be held Thursday,Sept. 23, at 7 p.m. at the libraryin Bristol.

Two MAUHS seniors, BrianO’Connor and Yuki Davis, willdiscuss their recent experiencesof travel to Asia and immersioninto two totally different cul-tures. Davis left her home inBristol for six weeks of travelaround Cambodia, soaking inthe rich culture and languagewith a student group fromWhere There Be Dragons.

Dragon programs encourageimmersion into strikingly dif-ferent physical and culturallandscapes, combining the bestin experiential education, trav-el, service learning, and physi-cally and intellectually chal-lenging experiences. Yuki andher group of 13 high school stu-dents from across the countrywent to Cambodia in order tostudy the country's develop-ment following the treacherousregime of the Khmer Rouge.

While studying how the

country was recovering, Yukialso independently delved intothe subject of education aboutthe genocide, culminating in afinal presentation. Yuki said“Every single experience,every passing moment, fromstargazing to Khmai languagelessons, home stays to teachingEnglish, trekking through theCambodian jungle to sleepingin hammocks, was unbeliev-ably challenging and incredi-bly rewarding.”

O'Connor spent last schoolyear living as an exchange stu-dent in Taiwan. While in Tai-wan he lived with several fam-ilies, attended high school andtook courses in Mandarin Chi-nese. Brian will be giving apresentation on what led him tohis Asian trip, the variousforms of culture shock he expe-rienced and “the horrors of fer-mented tofu.”

Be Sure To Say You Saw Their Ad In The Eagle! Thanks!

Here I sit about to scrawl my weekly column. It'sgrey and damp, around 52 degrees. A lit candleidles on my desk while on the floor, to my rear, I

hear the cat licking her behind. What the gad could beatall that? Nothin’.

Three things now come to mind:•First thing: The small paragraph you just read has

nothing to do with the topic I had planned to write about,but is, instead, a line included in a note I sent to a friendearlier today. I reread the note and took a liking to how Iused the word idle to describe the manner in which mycandle burned. Not knowing when the opportunity wouldagain arise to use the word idle to describe a candle as itburns—in the body of some future story—I thought I’d justup and write it for little good reason.

So, there you have it. The word idle can, in my humble,un-educated opinion, be used effectively for little goodreason— to describe a candle as it burns.

•Second thing: You see I used the word gad? When youwrite, if you write—sometimes, when you’re coming up toneeding a word—do you reach into the pickle barrel that isyour mind and extract a word that sounds good, but thatyou think might not mean anything near what you think itmight mean? I do this much of the time; the word I choseends up being the absolute perfect word for the space.Didn’t happen that way with gad. I can’t tell you what Ithought gad meant exactly, because I had no clue; I justthought it sounded like the right word to use in the space.

After I sent the note, I looked gad up and it doesn’t workin the space at all—or maybe it does. Or rather maybe itdoesn’t, but because I wrote it with purpose and convic-tion—and it sounds like it means what I want it to mean—it actually works fine.

Purpose and conviction: if while hiking you come acrossa bear and you’re scared to death, but you act unscarredwith purpose and conviction, the bear walks away (notsure that actually works, but it’s what the guys who knowlots about bears all say–at least the ones who haven’t beeneaten yet – I’m sure you know that there are two types ofguys who know lots about bears. Ones who’ve been eaten,and ones who’ll be eaten)

Or like when you’re under age and you want to get intoa strip club; act with purpose and conviction like you areof age and they let you in (this works).

•Third thing: Candidates—if they think they’re right forthe job, they’re right for the job, and they’ll get votes.Doesn’t matter if they’re actually more right at mendingstinking heelless socks then mending the state; what mat-ters is, they think they’re right for the job.

While at my booth at the summer fair seeing thousandsof all types of folks, I decided to conduct what so manyothers do regarding political campaigns: a survey.

My questions:1. Is Peter Shumlin for or against closing Vt. Yankee?2. Do Brian Dubie and Barack Obama share or differ on

the gay marriage issue?3. What has Deb Markowitz’ job been the last 12 years?

4. Brian Dubie’s home-town?

5. (Bonus question) Whatis Michelle Obama’s maidenname?

First survey: Thirty-five-year-old women, motherfrom Vermont’s NEK, suc-cessful business person,drives miles and miles, hun-dred of clients, pretty, clean,bright, friendly. Got ‘em all wrong. The answers were, shesaid, “on the tip of my tongue.”

Second survey: I looked into the eyes of a guy, probablyage 40, working-class guy, six feet two or three. I told himI was doing a survey—a political survey—and it had noth-ing to do with grading his smarts or intelligence; his an-swers where part of a group and wouldn’t be credited toanyone, let alone him. He nodded gently. This guy wasperfect; a strong, not young, not middle-aged working guyis the prototype for whom the politicians say they want tohelp. Surely this guy knows what’s up with today’s issuesbecause his life depends on them right?

Maybe. I’ll never know.When I was about to ask the prototype the first question,

the Shumlin/Vermont Yankee question, he looked at melike he’d just lost his dolly. He was at the fair, he wantedto have fun, he didn't want to take a survey unless it wasabout hunting or fishing, or making applesauce, or 100things that have nothing to do with what I was going toask him about. I didn’t do the second survey.

Results: One fail, one DNA (Did Not Ask). I didn’t dare.And anyway, the fact that I couldn’t bare ask the guy gaveme the overall survey result, that is—if we vote, we votefor the person we feel best about based on pure feeling,not on our knowledge of where the candidate stands onthe issues.

Ok. Give me specifics on two major changes included inthe new health care bill. Be specific, and be sure you've gotthe information one hundred percent correct, and be surethe changes will be carried out.

I'm waiting. Nothing? I thought so. Dear politicians, showing purpose and conviction, and

being likable, ‘ull help you get elected. The rest of the stuffis chaff. Believe me, I know, I did a survey—sort of.

P.S. I didn’t include answers to the survey questions. Ifyou look ‘em up you’re more likely to remember them. Ifyou get three correct, you’re at the top of the class myfriend!

The building blocks of life are abundant in our uni-verse. Organic, life-forming chemicals are com-mon in giant molecular clouds throughout deep

space. The fact that life arose here on Earth is testament tothe fact that other places will harbor it, too. It seems ap-parent that complex and self-replicating living systems ex-ist elsewhere on the planets of moons of other solar sys-tems yet to be detected.

Dense molecular clouds have been identified in deepspace. Located 6,500 light-years away, the majestic EagleNebula or M16—the now famous “Pillars of Creation”photographed by NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope in the1990s—contains over 1 million atoms per cubic inch.

(Aside: If you examine the photograph of the Pillars ofCreation pictured in the online Wikipedia article titled“Eagle Nebula”, our solar system, if added to the imagefor scale, would appear as a dot smaller than the period atthe end of this sentence. The pillars are 2-3 light yearslong!)

While the term “dense” is used loosely here, as-tronomers consider dense molecular clouds to be thebreeding grounds for the chemicals of life.

While the guts of the Eagle Nebula may be extremelycold, such a high vacuum environment does not get in theway of producing life’s building blocks and other things.

Inside the nebula, ice particles act like Velcro when itcomes to atoms and molecules. They sweep up debris and,in turn, are exposed to intense ultraviolet radiation fromyoung stars awakening within parts of the cloud; ice parti-cles are a medium for highly reactive chemical events.

Eventually, large molecules accumulate in the cloud asgravity helps collapse the molecules into vast protoplane-tary disks. Then a rain of organic compounds contributesto the mounting inventory of life-forming materials. Asthe rain progresses the rate of organic synthesis skyrock-ets. This is exactly the way our solar system formed; onEarth the organic rain met the right conditions and thenlife arose, emerging first from deep inside our planet’scrust.

How do we know organic molecules abound in stellarobjects such as the Eagle Nebula? The science of radio as-tronomy is essential in understanding the inner workings

of these vast clouds.Each type of organic mole-

cule absorbs a particularwavelength in the electro-magnetic spectrum. Radiotelescopes on Earth measurethe E.M. waves coming fromdistant stars located on thefar side of the nebula.

As the distant starlightpasses through the clouds,astronomers know that cer-tain diagnostic wavelengthswill be weaker in the back-ground, others stronger inthe foreground.

At my old stomping grounds,the NASA Ames ResearchCenter, astrochemist Dr. Louis Allamandola created exper-imental conditions akin to those inside the Eagle Nebula.

First, Allamandola chilled a vacuum chamber to verylow temperatures.

Next, he introduced a spray of gases found in molecularclouds—diatomic and triatomic chemical species such ashydrogen, carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide and water. Fi-nally, he passed a beam of UV radiation into the chamberand examined the spectrum of the chemicals produced bythe reaction with UV radiation.

The resulting reactions produced large molecules suchas nitriles (carbon and nitrogen) and ethers (hydrocarbonslinked to oxygen including alcohol, etc.). Some aminoacids were detected, too, compounds very similar to thebuilding blocks of living cellular membranes.

What’s in the Sky: Want to search for M16, the EagleNebula? You’ll need a reliable telescope and a dark sky.According to European astronomers Hartmut Frommertand Christine Kronberg, “M16 is found rather easily eitherby locating the star Gamma Scuti, a white giant star ofmagnitude 4.70. From Altair (Alpha Aquilae) via Delta andLambda Aql.; M16 is about 2.5 degrees (19 min. in R.A.)west of this star. M16 and the Eagle Nebula are best seenwith low powers in telescopes.”

Lou Varricchio, M.Sc., was a science writer at the NASA AmesResearch Center in Mountain View, Calif. He is currently a mem-ber of the NASA-JPL Solar System Ambassador program in Ver-mont. In 2009, he received the U.S. Civil Air Patrol’s Gen.Charles E. ‘Chuck' Yeager Aerospace Education AchievementAward.

Schoolhouse Learning Center inSouth Burlington secured its futurewhen it implemented a critical step inits transition from a parent-run coop-erative to a board of trustees model—which includes parents, alumni fami-lies and community members with aninterest in primary education.

The school received a loan from theVermont Community Loan Foundationfor the funds to hire a full-time admis-sions and marketing director.

Linda Barnes steps into the new po-sition from a career at Rice HighSchool. She accepted the position be-cause of her belief in the school’s five-year vision plan.

Beginning this fall, Schoolhouse willno longer require families to activelyrun the cooperative, which previouslyput too much onus on working families

despite their excitement over the aca-demic programs. Parent participationwill continue to beembraced; parentsplan to avail themselves of the oppor-tunity to join their students throughoutthe day including at morning circles,lunch, and recess.

Experienced teachers at Schoolhousehave committed themselves to retain-ing the best qualities of the schoolwhile implementing new programs toharness the power of science, technol-ogy, engineering and math (STEM)practices.

Parent Bill Church, won a grant for$4,000 this spring to continue his workon the school wetlands in partnershipwith St. Michael’s College. Throughoutthe year, Church took students to thewetlands to monitor the flora and fau-na of the 28 acres of wetlands that abut

the campus.Teachers also workedover the sum-

mer in professional development pro-grams such as the Google Teacher ’sEducation Program, a Watershed forEvery Classroom and a new initiativein using technology skills and music todocument a year-long classroom studyof plants and trees.

Innovative Schoolhouse traditionssuch as elective short courses, researchprojects, Spanish, music, physical edu-cation and displays of student work re-main the center of activity at the school,which is famous for its ability to de-velop students who love to learn.

The school’s early kindergarten pro-gram also provides a multi-aged learn-ing environment for students who mayhave missed the age cut-off for otherprograms.

‘Schoolhouse’ continuesinnovative programs

Students enjoy a unique learning environment at the Schoolhouse Learning Center in South Burlington.

Andrew R. Morton

One of the rules of columnism (a little MH neolo-gism, there) is that you don’t discourage yourreaders with an overload of boring data, and so,

instead, here’s just a pair of examples, both addressing theproductivity question. One comes from the hills of Ap-palachia, here in eastern Tennessee, where the WhirlpoolCorporation is investing $300MM in an appliance-manu-facturing plant upgrade so as to operate with more no-fringe-benefits automation and less sometimes-fallible hu-man labor. The goal: increasing productivity gains to im-prove output quality and shareholder dividends, while re-ducing customer pricing and flaws in output. The othercomes from the web page of M.W. Hodges entitled “TheGrandfather Report”, wherein he discusses with lots ofstatistics and graphics a variety of economic and quantifi-able subjects. His best (a little MH opinion, there) work ison education, where he reports at length on measured pro-ductivity declines in the ed industry –71% by the test-scores-vs-cost-per-pupil method-- over the last fewdecades, with lots of supporting data I won’t repeat here.The two examples make for a sharp contrast, particularlysince manufacturing is out-paced only by agriculture inproductivity gains via labor-input reduction and educationis the only economic sector to have deliberately chosen toreject pursuit of productivity and seek labor-force enlarge-ment instead.

It’s been decades since agriculture was the major indus-try or employer in the US – urban consumers first out-numbered rural producers in the data of the 1920 Census—and similarly, it’s been almost as many decades since pub-lic education became the major industry and employer inmany suburban and exurban municipalities, as it is todayin the majority of Vermont’s 251 Towns. Agriculture choseto respond to its political-minority status by pursuing in-creased productivity, which has meant fewer farmers andmore output. Producers are now a mere 1% of the laborforce, while corn, for example, which, in my youth har-vested at about a 30/bushel/acre rate is now close to 200,and for fewer labor hours per acre. Public employees(civilian) are now 20% of the US labor force, an all-timehigh, the Bureau of Labor Statistics reported last year, andhave the highest union-membership rate, within whichsector educators have the highest at 38%. Farmers havebeen “rewarded” for their productivity gains and politicalineffectiveness by negative returns on crops and inflation-only returns on investment; educators have been rewardedfor their productivity reductions (reductions in class sizewithout gains in student achievement) and political effec-tiveness by pay increases which have brought the profes-sion from well-below-the-white-collar average in the ‘50’sto well above it today. Corn yields in the 35bu/a rangewere profitable to producers in the ‘50’s; 2009 yields at the165bu/a level were sold at less than cost-of-production.Per-pupil education costs in the ‘50’s were in the $250

range. Adjusted for infla-tion, that would todayequate to $2500. In Vermontthey’re five times as much.

There’s no shortage of ed-ucation theorists proposingincreases in teacher produc-tivity; typical is Columbiaprofessor Mark Taylor, whourges (again) the long-advo-cated practice of “differenti-ated staffing” although hedoesn’t call it that, wheremany fewer high-priced

“real” teachers are support-ed by many more low-priced assistants. He’s alsofor –no surprise—more TVand computers so “studentswill be less reliant on teach-ers”. These are not popularnotions in the ed establish-ment.

Because I’m a product ofthe public-ed system fromthe long-gone days whengrammar was actuallytaught (to classes of near 30in rows of fixed-to-the-floorseating) I know that “per-plex” is usually a passive-voice verb and not a noun. I’lluse it as one anyway. Back then, it was fun to watch theeducator elites take verbal shots at Dwight Eisenhower,denigrating (is that verb allowed any more?) his supposedinvention of the verb “to finalize”; maybe today’s Gentry-Left (much like the so-called egg-heads, then) will similar-ly disapprove my alliterative neologism. Go for it, all youlatter-day Adlai Stevenson acolytes. “Productivity Per-plex” is my choice for column header because (MH opin-ion) it nicely captures the economic quandary facing someprivate-sector productivity-seekers (like farmers) who arepunished for their efforts, while others (like Whirlpool) arerewarded for theirs; or in the public-sector, where all paylip-service to the concept, make scant effort to achieve it,and, in the case of public education, have been generouslyrewarded for their extremely successful long-term movesin the opposite, productivity-reducing, cost-increasing, di-rection, which has worked so well because increasingunionized staffing increases voting-your-own-paycheckclout. Public ed wasn’t always thus.

In the 19th century educator Joseph Lancaster (he mod-estly called his differentiated staffing model with few realteachers and many aides the “monitorial” system) sold itin England and, with lesser results, in the US as, in ourterms, the Lancastrian, on the basis of high productivitybefitting the new industrial age. Even Horace Mann, a gen-eration later, argued productivity gains for his single-grade-per-classroom school design. In the 1920’s, educa-tors arguing for smaller classes similarly argued for small-er classrooms for productivity (input costs) reasons, andeven today, the educational establishment proclaims thatlarger districts with many fewer superintendents (but, in-evitably, many more deputies and assistants and deputyassistants) would save money and improve productivity.

My moment-of-truth (a little Hemingway lingo, there)came when I was much younger and more naïf and myboss had sent me on a facilities-analysis study assignmentto Greenwich, CT, where, it turned out, the Board wasmore interested in cutting staffing costs than up-gradingbuildings. I responded with a description of differentiatedstaffing as it had been used in both public and private ed-ucation at both lower-ed and higher-ed levels. A day latermy boss laid down the law: never, while you work for me,raise that subject again. We need these people as ourclients, and you just antagonized the entire professionalcadre and labor organization with which they have towork. I’d say “productivity perplex” is a fairly good de-scription of that problem.

The Productivity Perplex

HELP CHEER ‘EM ON—Featured in last week’s Addison Ea-gle, nationally recognized VUHS cheerleaders Capricia Burbo,Jennifer Cunningham, Cynthian Holler, and Katelynn Viau areon a local fundraising quest to perform in the Macy’s Thanks-giving Day Parade in New York City Nov. 25. A special spiritdinner will be held at the Vergennes American Legion PostOct. 1 to generate some of $12,000 needed.

Now that the Addison Central School’s 08/09 au-dit has been completed ($68,000 to the good)and the 2009/2010 school year budget has been

closed (Operations and Maintenance is under budget by$80,000- ACS board meeting, June 17, 2010 minutes). AN-wSU does need a “new light“ to get Unified Unionspassed. Addison Central School temporarily lost the crisischild role, yet don’t forget Addison taxpayers are currentlypaying dearly for this lack of ANwSU efficiency. Superin-tendent O’Brien could have saved Addison taxpayer ’s the“.08 cents drop” tax incentive this year by getting the Au-dits completed in time for budgets. When ACSU closedtheir financial books with $212,006 surplus this year it waspublicly reported. Could ANwSU receive some attentionfrom the media?

When I think of “light,” I think of the word enlighten. Iwould like to recommend a “new light” driven by informa-tion, knowledge, understanding and dialog in the individ-ual TOWN school board meetings that the taxpayer‘s de-serve.

I extol our neighboring union ACSU for three reasons;the 101 page exhaustive governance study publicly re-leased, dialog at the TOWN school board level and explo-ration of all viable governance choices. Taxpayers can pe-ruse what I call “competent” Governance Study on the Ver-mont School Board web-sit (vtvsba.org, click on the Ver-mont Governance Studies link). ANwSU board has spent$22,000.85, $8,000 from our local taxpayers (ANwSU in-voice) on creating a “competent” Title 16: chapter 11 Uni-fied Union report. In a reply letter from ANwSU Board ofDirectors chair, Laurie Gutowski responded, “The most re-cent copy of that report, entitled Articles of Agreement, isenclosed. Although perhaps not as “exhaustive” as youmight expect, it is nonetheless the report referenced in thestudy committee’s charge and the report anticipated in thelegislation of 16 V.S.A. 706, I believe you will find the re-

port to be very competent as the Commissioner of Educa-tion and the State Board of Education on two separate oc-casions.” There is another entity that MUST find this re-port competent -- the taxpayers.

According to this Title 16 law reference, the taxpayershave the final vote. ANwSU board cannot say that the tax-payers found their report competent because most did notread it before they voted last March. The ANwSU board re-port is the contract between the new Unified Union Boardand the local taxpayers, not the Department of Education.(go to anwsu.org and read the Articles of Agreement.

Mr. O'Brien reported that, the ANwSU board reconvenedthe Unified Union study committee in May. (May 20 ACSboard minutes) By the ANwSU board reconvening the AN-wSU study committee, our district towns are back underTitle 16: education chapter 11 - 706. How do you get an in-vitation to be on this committee? I would love to be amember. I would focus on the following section of the“new law” O‘Brien refers to for incentives: H66

Sec. 1. FindingsThe general assembly finds that:(3) the voluntary merger of Vermont’s education govern-

ing units:(B) provides voters opportunities to make local decisions

regarding school choice and other enrollment options, inVermont public schools and in approved independentschools, that are appropriate for their communities;

(C) recognizes school choice as a significant part of theVermont elementary and secondary system as it currentlyexists and as it will continue to exist as changes to thestructure are made in the future

ANwSU board and superintendent O’Brien need to bereminded of Title 16: Education 706. Proposal to formstudy committee, “Nothing in this section shall be con-strued to prohibit informal exploration between and

among school districts prior to the formation of a studycommittee”

The taxpayers in our ANwSU area need to take the dia-log back to the local TOWN school boards. June 22, AN-wSU Unified Union Study Committee minutes read, “…someone stated that this initiative (Unified Unions) is theschool district’s way of gaining control - to take away thelocal control. Mr. O’Brien noted that there is little localcontrol - but there certainly is local influence.” and yet heneeds our vote in March.

See you at the meetings!Carol Kauffman, Addison

cooperation among the world’s reli-gions that this particular date em-phasized.

His Holiness also noted the con-currence of the Consecration and theanniversary of Sept. 11 attacks onWorld Trade Center and the Penta-gon, calling for peace and reconcili-ation among those of differentfaiths. He described the role oflaunching a Buddhist nunnery in thewest toward this purpose. He alsopraised the groundbreaking eventof a nunnery in establishing agreater part for women in Buddhisttraditions around the world, Amer-icans being particularly open to theparticipation of women in all publicactivities.

Khenmo Drolma is the firstwoman and first Westerner to holdthe office of Abbess in the TibetanBuddhist tradition.

Attendees, both lay people andmonastics, came from Europe, Que-bec and Ontario in Canada, and allacross the U.S. for the five days ofactivities beginning with Thurs-day’s teachings for monks and nunsand ending with a Long Life Prayeroffered by the Vajra Dakini commu-nity to His Holiness. In addition tothe consecration, His Holiness gaveteachings for lay Buddhists and thegeneral public on Thursday and Fri-day. His Holiness met with membersof the Burlington Tibetan communi-ty who were present on Saturday.Sunday’s events included giving

both the White Tara Empowermentand bestowing Refuge Vows on sev-eral of those attending. TakingRefuge Vows is the first step of mak-ing a commitment to Buddhist prac-tice.

For local Buddhists this marks thesecond visit of His Holiness, who es-caped Tibet in 1975 after suffering

the Red Communist Cultural Revo-lution to reeestablish the Drikunglineage. This heritage had beennearly obliterated since the Chineseoccupation of Tibet and systematicdestruction of the monasteries. Thelast time His Holiness visited Ver-mont was 11 years ago when he ded-icated the nunnery to White Tara

and named Khenmo Drolma to leadit.

Buddhists feel fortunate to havethese two formidable teachers intheir midst. Receiving teachings,blessings and vows from a high lev-el lama like His Holiness is whatcompelled so many to travel so far.

$1 million for Eastview retirementcenter

Gov. Jim Douglas award-ed a $1 million CommunityDevelopment Block Grant,paid by Vermont taxpayers,to a proposed multi-level re-tirement community locatedadjacent to the Porter Med-ical Center campus in Mid-dlebury.

At a ceremony on the 40-acre site of the proposedEastview at Middlebury fa-cility Sept. 7, Douglas said itwas expected to employ 29people within the first twoyears of operation and couldcreate up to 45 jobs althoughthe exact number of new jobsremains vague.

"Not only will these jobshelp strengthen the econo-my of Middlebury, but theseniors of this area will havemore options for housingand continuing care in thecommunity," the governorsaid.

The $1 million Communi-ty Development Block Grantwill be given to the Town ofMiddlebury, sub-granted toEastview at Middlebury, a501(c)3 non-profit organiza-tion, which will constructthe new project. It will in-clude 99 units of seniorhousing comprised of 30one-story cottage homes; 32independent living apart-ments; 19 traditional resi-dential care apartments; and18 special care suites for res-idents with memory loss.

Planned community facil-ities include a lobby; diningroom; private dining room;café; country kitchen; mediaroom/auditorium; fitnessstudio; and hair salon. Thecenter will also feature suchservices as an emergency re-sponse system; 24-hourstaffing; dining service;housekeeping; transporta-tion; and a full range of as-sisted living services.

"These kinds of projectsare an important part of Ver-mont's housing stock, par-ticularly as more of our pop-ulation seeks to 'age in place'in their communities withfriends, family, and servicesnearby," Douglas said.

Vermont receives about $7million annually in federalCDBG funds, which are usedprincipally to benefit per-sons of low and moderate in-come. The state awards thecompetitive grants based onrecommendations of the Ver-mont Community Develop-ment Board and approval ofCommerce and CommunityDevelopment SecretaryKevin Dorn.

"These grants are impor-tant because they leverageother financial resourcesand help address criticalneeds in our communities,"Douglas said. "The $1 mil-lion we are awarding willleverage more than $41 mil-lion in other funds from pri-vate and public sources.".

By Bob ChatfieldSpecial to the Eagle

Preseason practice came to an end as area high school foot-ball teams kicked off the 2010 season over the weekend.Mount Abraham Union High opened with a loss to defend-ing Division III state champion Windsor High, but Middle-bury and Otter Valley Union High opened with solid wins.

Windsor 34, Mount Abe 6There are tough to take losses, the forget it and get ready

for next week blowout, upset losses and then there is the oc-casional positive loss. While, on the surface the Eagles 34-6loss to Windsor might seem to fall under the forgetable blow-out, there was actually more positives then negatives on thisafternoon.

Coach Ernie Senecal's Eagles went from a tentative groupto start the contest to proving to be more then competitivewith the defending state champions. To be sure Windsormade plenty of first game mistakes turning the ball over sixtimes, coupled with inopportune penalties. The Yellowjack-ets twice lost fumbles inside the Eagles two yardline and hadtwo touchdowns called back by penalities, but a lot of thatwas a result of a hard hitting Eagle football team that grewin confidence as the game wore on.

Jacob Page's 53-yard pass interception return for a touch-down and 63-yard punt return for another score helped

Windsor blow open a 14-6 game. But there was a point frommidway way through the second quarter through the thirdquarter that the Eagles had the Yellowjackets on the ropes.

The Eagles also appear to have found a solid weapon injunior running back Geoffrey Grant. The diminutive 5'6''Grant refused to go down on the first hit as it usually tooktwo to three Yellowjacket tacklers to bring this little bulldown. Grant totted the pigskin 11 times for over 70 yardsand showed some diversity to his game hauling in a 30-yardscoring strike from Eagle quarterback Ian Shaw.

For his part Shaw showed he could be a threat with bothhis arm and his feet taking off a couple good looking scram-bles. 6' 1'' receiver Pat Etka also looked like a target thatShaw could be looking for more as the season wears on.

I'm not going to say this was a preview of a potential Di-vision III playoff match up, but if this Eagle football teamcontinues to show the same level of improvement each week,they are going to be a team other Division III teams aren'tgoing to look forward to facing as the season wears on. TheEagles return to action hosting Winooski High this comingSaturday, Sept. 11.

Middlebury 25, Lyndon Institute 12During its surprising run to a the Division II playoffs last

season the Middlebury Union High football team hosted astruggling equally young Lyndon football team. While,many expected the game to be a blowout, the Vikings threw

a scare into the host Tigers before falling.Lyndon had a chance to gain a measure of revenge this

past Saturday hosting Middlebury in the season opener forboth teams

After falling behind 13-0 in the first half the Vikings closedthe gap to 13-12 in the third quarter. But the Tigers reestab-lished control with Marshall Hastings capping off a drivewith a 5-yard touchdown run and Bryan Ashley-Selleck putthe final nail in the Vikings coffin with a 36-yard scoringscamper in the fourth quarter.

Hasting who proved he could be a weapon as a sophomorelast season either running or catching the football paced theTiger offense rushing for 100 yards and two touchdowns.

The Tigers face another challenge this coming weekendvisiting Fair Haven Union High.

Otter Valley 13, Spaulding High 6This is one that a hard luck Otter Valley Union High foot-

ball team would probably have seen go the other way lastseason. But 2010 offers a new beginning and the Otters tookfull advantage of that with the hard fought win over hostSpaulding High on Saturday.

Peter Bautista accounted for the Otter scoring with touch-down runs of 39 and 31 yards in the first and fourth quar-ters. The Otters almost let this one get away losing the ballthree times on fumbles three times in the final 5:40. The Ot-ters return to action this Saturday playing at Mount Mans-field Union High.

Services - Like any business, agriculture can be financially set back by safety violations, injuries,

illnesses and deaths. NECAS offers safety education and proactive programs to

help prevent incidents that affect your agribusiness safety and welfare.

National Education Center for Agricultural Safety

2010 National Farm Safety & Health WeekNFS&HW takes place September 19 - 25. The theme for 2010 is “ATV’s - Work Smart. Ride Safe.”

A Harvest of Safety and HealthThe National Education Center for Agricultural Safety (NECAS) is dedicated to preventing illnesses, injuries, and deaths among farmers and ranchers, agricultural and horticultural workers, their families, and their employees. In 1997, NECAS opened on the Northeast Iowa Community College Peosta Campus. This is the only organization with hands-on farm equipment safety training center. The facility also houses classrooms and a library and resource center.

Our concern for safety in rural areas goes beyond farms and ranches. The need for services spreads f rom citrus groves in the South to vineyards in the West. It covers cattle ranches in Wyoming, fisheries in Maine, and thousands of ventures in between.
