Dutchess One Stop


By JUDITH OHARA BALFE
judithb@millertonnews.com

MILLBROOK The Millbrook


Library has a full calendar of offerings for the public most of which are
free. One of the most useful programs
might be Dutchess One Stop, which
helps clients search for jobs. Once per
month, usually, the counselors help
with resumes, cover letters and/or
other professional advice.
Dutchess One Stop is a partnership
of state and local agencies and organizations that seek to aid in Dutchess
Countys economic growth, which, of
course, is affected by (un)employment
numbers. The career development

services are basic and unique to each


client. Appointments are helpful, but
whenever possible walk-ins are also
welcome.
Meghan Heady-Amara is a One
Stop counselor who visits the Millbrook Library; along with her colleagues, Heady-Amara visits 12 area
libraries. Collectively, they aid clients
in assessing skills, setting goals, writing resumes, developing cover letters
and conducting mock interviews. They
discuss both long-term and short-term
goals, as well as proper attire and comportment. Being a community services field coordinator is challenging,

COPAKE FALLS Ninety-seven


years after a former resident left
Copake Falls, it has finally returned
home. Roe Jan Historical Society Board
member and Copake resident Howard
Blue initiated a project called the Bash
Bish Flag, in an effort to conserve a
flag that is more than 100 years old. It
had belonged to the Bash Bish Inn. A
meeting to create a committee for the
project took place on Saturday, Jan.
9, at 10:30 a.m. at Copake Town Hall.
The project to conserve this flag was
proposed by Blue.
The idea to pursue this project was
tossed out at a history presentation
he gave at the Roe Jan Library. At that
presentation, Blue said that for his
next lecture he would be joined by a
100-year-old resident of the town
the flag eager to return to its home
and bare witness at the next history
presentation by Blue. Residents curious to learn who this old resident was
went out of their way to ask him for
hints, he said laughing.
Once Blue showed up at the presentation with the flag, residents met
the flag with applause, showing strong
support for the return of the Bash Bish
Inn flag.

Marion Ann Donovan


NORFOLK Marion Ann
Donovan, a career foreign service officer and
world traveler,
died peacefully at
her home on Dec.
22, 2015. She was
95.
Miss Donovan
was born on Oct.
13, 1920, and grew
up in Brooklyn,
N.Y., where she
played the violin
and piano and read
voraciously. Her
love of travel began early, when,
with her father at the wheel, the
Donovan family traveled across
the country in a 1928 Buick to
visit historic and natural sites
during summer vacations.
Miss Donovan majored in
fine arts at Barnard College,
where she was a member of the
violin section of the Columbia
University Orchestra, had a special passion for archaeology and
won a fellowship to study artists
Diego Rivera and Jose Clemente
Orozco in Mexico. She graduated cum laude from Barnard in
1941.
Miss Donovan held several
positions in publishing after college, then entered the U.S. Foreign Service, where she served
for more than 25 years. Fiercely
independent her whole life, Miss
Donovan lived and worked as
a single woman in Egypt, Turkey, Peru, Afghanistan, Vietnam,
Chile, the Ivory Coast and other
countries, sometimes leaving
just before the outbreak of a war.
She loved nothing more than
the adventure of visiting a new
city or country, and eventually
visited every continent and corner of the world, often with her
sister, Mary, who shared her passion for travel. Miss Donovans
six nieces and nephew were the
beneficiaries of postcards from
all over the world, written in
her witty and distinctive voice,
with vivid descriptions of all she
saw. Her passion for travel remained strong throughout her
long life. Well into her 80s, she
said, When I get a new travel
brochure in the mail, I lick my
chops.
When asked to name her favorite country, Miss Donovan
would always say, The U.S. of
A! because of the freedoms we
enjoy here.
Miss Donovan found a home

in Norfolk in 1982 after she retired from the foreign service.


She was attracted
to Norfolks natural
beauty and the Yale
School of Musics
summer program,
but her decision
was cinched when
she walked into the
Norfolk Public Library and found a
fire burning in the
fireplace. The setting
was so comfortable
and inviting that she
decided that Norfolk was the
town where she wanted to settle.
Miss Donovan lived happily
as a Norfolk resident for more
than 30 years, where she closely followed local politics and
events, loved the opera and the
many arts the area has to offer,
and enjoyed Norfolks changing seasons especially the bold
colors of autumn while building a reputation as a gracious
hostess who spoiled her family
and friends with big meals and
many wonderful weekends at
her home.
A lifelong animal lover, Miss
Donovan was also a devoted supporter of the Little Guild of St.
Francis, a shelter for cats and
dogs in West Cornwall, and attended many of its blessings of
the animals over the years.
Miss Donovan is survived by
a sister, six nieces and a nephew.
She received superlative
care around the clock during
her long illness, and the family
is deeply grateful to her wonderful caregivers: Tina Prigge,
Madeline Falk, Theresa Kochiss-Padua, Marcella JencikovaSadlon, Mary Yard, Katie Hester
and Stacey Roberts. The family would also like to express
our appreciation to the other
members of the Norfolk community who looked out for our
aunt over the years.
A Mass will be celebrated for
Miss Donovan at Immaculate
Conception Church in Norfolk
on Saturday, Jan. 16, at 11 a.m.
In lieu of flowers, those who
wish are invited to make a donation in Miss Donovans memory
to the Norfolk Library, the Little Guild of St. Francis (www.
littleguild.org), or a charity of
your choice.
The Kenny Funeral Home in
Norfolk has charge of arrangements.

Something for everyone at


7th annual Kildonan Expo
By KAREN GRAZIA
Special to The Millerton News

AMENIA The seventh annual Kildonan Expo was held on


Friday, Dec. 18, welcoming parents and families to The Kildonan
School campus to view student
work from the fall semester. Students presented their work in all
subject areas including: science,
math, history, literature, art, music and foreign languages.
Keynote speaker Amanda
Whalen, a 2007 graduate of The
Kildonan School and now a designer at BabyVision, a baby and
toddler clothing manufacturing
company, gave a very personal
address to students and their
families. Following her speech,
families moved throughout campus viewing students hard work

during the past four months.


Science projects included experiments, data collection and
presentations. Math presentations took the form of games using mathematical reasoning and a
musical video. Students in American Sign Language showed their
skill by signing along to songs,
both live and also in a creative
video performance. Spanish students showed their understanding of the culture by making salsa,
dancing and studying the music
of Spanish-speaking countries.
Charcoal drawings and photography were featured pieces of artwork, and musical performances
were given with full instrumentation and vocals, accompanied by
music teachers Michael Klvana
and Johan Narsjo. The Kodiaks
(grades two to five) extensive

study of birds of prey culminated


with beautifully crafted paper mache replications of their specific
bird of study, guided by Kodiak
teacher Erika Hollander.
A full-size interactive cave,
built by three sixth-grade students, incorporated the book Boy
of the Painted Cave, which was
read in literature class and woven perfectly into art to bring the
caves off the page. Visitors could
enter the cave, reveling in the precision and detail and triggering a
recorded message that provided
information about the students
creation. Students were assisted
in this massive endeavor by literature teacher Charles Brown and
art teacher Todd Titone.
Karen Grazia is in charge of
media and communications for The
Kildonan School.

judithb@millertonnews.com
MILLBROOK Millbrook
Library started its January series
of adult events with the Bowen
Therapy Work Body Clinic on
Wednesday, Jan. 6. Conducted by
Danielle Molella, a nationally-certified therapeutic body worker, the
session was attended by 15 participants, most of whom had already
experienced the therapy first hand.
The Bowen Technique was
started by the late Tom Bowen in
Australia. Its a dynamic system of
muscle and connective tissue work
that addresses the whole body, and
treats a myriad of ailments, including: sports injuries, tennis elbow,
Fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue
symptoms and Chrones disease
as well as many others. Some also
claim it is good for migraine headaches and vertigo.
Bowenwork is effective, yet
gentle, inflicting no pain or forced
results. It is used by many in the
medical profession and can reportedly bring about rapid results. It is
said to restore the bodys natural
balance, thus allowing the body
to heal itself.
Studies have shown that competitive athletes who have regular
Bowen treatments consistently
perform better with an accelerated rate of recovery from injury
than those who do not.
Many have made testimonials lauding Molellas work. One
baseball player said he was in a car
accident that left his left arm his
pitching arm broken. After a
few sessions with Molella, he said
he could pitch without pain, and
without hesitation.
When there is acute injury, a
Bowenwork therapist may concentrate on the injured part of the

body, but generally Bowen Technique facilitates the whole body
in healing itself with minimum
intervention. Thats unlike many
other forms of manipulation
therapy. According to Molella,
the body continues to respond
to Bowen Therapy for several
days after the treatment, which
is why Bowen treatments are well
spaced out.
Molella, who hails from Millbrook, was living and working
as a designer in Seattle when she
decided to train as a Licensed
Massage Practitioner; she started her Bowenwork training three

years later. Shes been practicing Bowenwork for the past six
years. She said that when she
saw how Bowenwork helped her
own body recover from injury
she wanted to offer it to others.
After living outside of the area
for almost 20 years Molella has
returned to her roots; she is
back in Millbrook to practice
her work.

Traffic stop for DWI in Millerton

EDITORIAL

A time to reorganize,
and a time to learn

s part of our towns annual protocol, Town Boards


must hold reorganization meetings after the first of the
year. Amenia, North East, Pine Plains and Washington
have all done that. Its at these meetings that appointments are
made, salaries authorized, resolutions passed and a sundry of
other housekeeping issues addressed.
It might not sound overly stimulating, but its important
business. Town Board members gather as soon after Jan. 1 as
possible to make sure their towns can fully operate for the
upcoming year. Without these organizational meetings, or
reorg meetings, municipal business would come to a halt.
And, its worth noting, as this paper has had the opportunity
to sit in on more than a few of these meetings, they can be
pretty interesting. Its at the reorgs where one can find out
who does what for the town and how much many of them are
paid. Such financial decisions are actually made when the
towns draft their budgets, but they get final approval and are
adopted at the organizational meetings.
Town Board committees and liaisons are also set at these
reorg meetings. And thats important, because thats where one
can learn which Town Board members deal with specific
issues and departments so taxpayers can know who to
approach if theyre unhappy or curious about certain matters.
For instance, Councilmen Steven Merwin and Jim Campbell
sit on the town of North Easts Recreation Committee. Anyone
with questions about how decisions are made regarding
recreation for instance the cost of summer camp now
know with whom they should speak. Same goes for other
matters. Just look up the Town Board committee members or
Town Board liaisons. That can be vital information.
If, perhaps, someone wants to know who the animal control
officer is, that appointment would have been made at the reorg
meeting. So, too, would the appointment of a town attorney, a
town engineer, a towns depositories, a towns official newspaper, etc.
This last tidbit is important because it lets taxpayers know
where to find legal notices, which municipal entities along
with fire districts must publish before holding public hearings,
adopting resolutions/laws and accepting bids, as well as to
meet other legal requirements. Private corporations also have
to publish legal notices before forming and to qualify for
specific licenses, etc.
The Millerton News is proud to announce that its the
official newspaper for Amenia, Millerton, North East, Pine
Plains and Washington, as well as for the North East (Webutuck), Pine Plains and Millbrook central school districts. Legal
notices are printed weekly and reading them makes for good
habit.
But back to the reorgs, theyre mandatory, sure, and they
deal with minutia, absolutely, but they can be interesting. Read
all about the Harlem Valleys latest organizational meetings in
this weeks issue of The Millerton News. Chances are those
who do will learn something new.

A Latin lesson with a $1 bill

re you getting the hang


of Latin yet? Salve (pronounced Sahl-way)! Thats
Hello! in Latin.
Lets take a look at the reverse
of an American $1 bill, where you
will find both sides of the Great
Seal of the United States. On the
left, above the eye at the top of the
unfinished pyramid, you can see
the Latin words ANNUIT COEPTIS, which mean He approves
[our] beginnings or undertakings.
About 233 years ago designers of the Great Seal went back
to the Latin poetry of Vergil to
find words that would inspire
the people of these new United
States. Vergil lived between 70-19
B.C. Astonishing, isnt it, to think
that Americans have connections
to ancient Romans who lived over
2,000 years ago!
The Latin word annuit is a
form of a verb meaning nod,
express approval. We have a few
unusual English words related
to this Latin verb like nutation (a
wobble) and the adjective numinous (supernatural, holy). From
the Latin noun coeptis, meaning
beginnings or undertakings,
we get many English words like
inception (beginning), concept
(idea) and receptive (open to

ideas).
The designers of the Great Seal
wished to acknowledge a divine
Providence from the beginning
of this new government called the
United States of America. Readers interested in the many Latin
words and phrases found not
only on the Great Seal but also
on other early American forms
of currency will find this website
of interest: www.greatseal.com/
mottoes/coeptis.html.
Thats our third Latin phrase
of the week. The next Latin
phrase also can be found on the $1
bill, also on the Great Seal.
Vale (pronounced Wahl-ay)!
Thats Latin for good-bye.
P.S. The obverse of a bill or
coin is the side that has the portrait!

taught Latin at Hackley School in
Tarrytown, N.Y., from 1990 to 2015.

A serious problem
facing Congress

he argument put before


Congress by the military industrial complex
whether in time of war or
peace is that the investment
the taxpayer makes into developing technologies will benefit
American jobs, benefit American commercial industry
and, especially, thereby benefit American global strength.
A great deal of that strength
comes from commercial and
financial strength.
Now, imagine you are on
the Congressional Committee hearing evidence on why
we need to build a new stealth
strategic bomber (as is currently being approved and discussed). General Robin Rand,
modernization and sustainment can only take us so far,
so we look forward. And with
the LRS-B, that future looks
promising. The LRS-B will extend American air dominance.
And then they quote the
price 2010 tag of only $550
million per plane. Air Force
procurement chief William
LaPlante told a congressional
hearing that that price (in todays dollars of $575 million
already) excludes development expenses that AF analysts
estimate could reach less than
$24 billion.
Thats $24 billion (with a
B) taxpayer dollars for research and development. Now,
traditionally, last century, the
taxpayers protectors Congress have ensured that
those dollars benefit America. For example, Eisenhower
approved and had Congress
fund the development of a jet
transport that, two years later,
morphed into the Boeing 707.
Jobs? Hundreds of thousands
in America. Industry? Billions
of dollars in American industrial profits. Global strength?
America became the worlds
leading aviation provider.
Now, imagine if Boeing
had taken that early transport
technology and decided to
build all their aircraft in, say,
Japan? Think Congress would
have allowed that to continue?

A VIEW FROM
THE EDGE
Peter Riva
Nope.
And yet, today, American
taxpayer investment in microchips, plastics, wireless
technology, computer coding,
touchscreens and a host of
technological improvements
are being trickled-down to
American companies who then
march off to China and elsewhere, provide jobs there and,
to make matters really insulting, then refuse to bring corporate profits back to America
because they dont like to pay
tax; keeping the funds overseas
to provide more investment
and jobs over there. Their entire businesses were built on
U.S. taxpayer investment in
basic technologies and yet they
are marching off into the sunset with our investment.
Now, if you are in Congress,
when are you going to wake up
and see that, for just the new
bomber, the LRS-B, that $24
billion technology research
and development program
might not be a good deal for
the U.S. taxpayer? The bomber
may be necessary (thats a separate issue), but investing with
corporations who will have
no restrictions on providing
more jobs outside of America,
keeping profits away from our
country and, in so doing, further weaken our nation? Do
you really want to fund something supposed to strengthen
the nation while you undermine that very strength by
providing research and development funds without securing sole-U.S. taxpayer benefit?
I dont know about other taxpayers, but I am not happy to
think that the Tim Cooks of
this world will take my investment and weaken the USA.
Peter Riva, a former resident
of Amenia Union, now lives in

Environment and autism; and opposition to TPP


Dear EarthTalk: What is the
latest thinking on the environmental causes (if any) of autism?
I hear so much conflicting information I dont know what to
believe.
Bill Stribling
Austin, Texas
In the 1980s, about one in
2,000 American kids was diagnosed with autism. Today the
number is around one in 68,
according to estimates from the
U.S. Centers for Disease Con-

trol and Preventions Autism


and Developmental Disabilities Monitoring Network. This
disconcerting increase has led
to intensified examination into
what environmental factors may
play a role in the disorders development. A wide range of exposures have been scientifically
linked to autism, including air
pollutants, phthalates and other
endocrine disruptors, pesticides
such as Chlorpyrifos, and many
more. Vaccines were considered
a leading culprit, but more re-

cent research has proven this
connection wrong although
the subject still engenders much
debate.
A 2014 study by researchers
at the Harvard School of Public

Health found a strong link between autism and in utero exposure to air pollution: the risk of
autism was doubled among children of women exposed to high
levels of particulate air pollution
during pregnancy. Another 2014
study out of the University of
California, Davis determined
that pregnant women living in
close proximity to fields and
farms where chemical pesticides
are applied experience a 66 perContinued to next page

It was 10 p.m. We were returning home from 52 Main in


Millerton. We are in our 70s and
have clean driving records. That
was about to change.
Officer Michael Veeder, siren and lights flashing, pulled
us over on Gay Road. Accompanying him was Sheriff Deputy
Bonds.
We have not been the same
since.
Officer Veeder said he spotted Louise turning on her
headlights while heading north
on Rudd Pond Road. He said
he smelled alcohol. Louise acknowledged having had two
vodka drinks over three hours
with dinner. His alcohol detector failed to register. After several tries he became annoyed,
accusing her of not blowing
properly. He ordered her to perform several field sobriety tests.
When it came to the heel-to-toe
walk, she refused, explaining
that she has diminished strength
in her legs and feeling in her feet
due to femoral bypasses and peripheral neuropathy, negatively
affecting her balance. Upset, he
accused her of not cooperating,
handcuffed her, arrested her
and put her into the back of his
squad car for transport to the
Millerton Police Station.
Louise submitted to Breathalyzer testing, which she had to
do several times while Deputy
Bonds and Officer Veeder complained that the machine was
not working properly.
None of this was reflected in
the arrest report noting an alcohol level of .09 percent (below
.08 percent being the legal limit). She was alleged to have failed
several field sobriety tests (some
of which were never administered), to have had glassy eyes
and slurred speech.
Thanksgiving and Christmas

were lost this year. Instead, we


prepared for Louises hearing.
We hired a lawyer; visited our
physician for an evaluation of
the officers report. The doctors
conclusion: the findings were
unremarkable for a 76-year-old.
At Louises court appearance,
the assistant district attorney acknowledged there was an issue
with probable cause. Officer
Veeder did not have grounds for
stopping, much less arresting,
her. Louise was offered a deal.
DWI would be dropped if she
pled guilty to a traffic infraction,
along with a fine of $193 and
two points on her license. If she
refused, there would be a trial
costing thousands more. She
took the deal.
The Millerton Police have
a reputation for staking out
restaurants on Main Street.
They trail patrons, pulling them
over for negligible infractions,
claim to smell alcohol and arrest
them for DWI.
Officer Veeder was lauded
as a top DWI cop in Dutchess
County (see Millerton News
12/10/15). While the STOP-DWI
program has good features and
certainly preventing drunk driving is a laudable goal, this award
creates a perverse incentive that
rewards policing practices that
are at best over-zealous, and at
worst, illegal.
We love Millerton. But, our
sense of security and community have taken a bruising,
knowing that the slightest traffic infractions can lead to being
pulled over by a police officer
more intent on becoming the
next top DWI cop than on protecting and respecting the rights
of the citizens of the town he or
she has sworn to protect.

Harvard study, believes that despite all the emerging data linking toxic exposures to autism, no
environmental influence appears
to cause or prevent autism by itself rather they appear to influence risk in those genetically
predisposed to the disorder.
Its important to remember
that not all mothers exposed to
air pollution during pregnancy
will have a child with autism and
not all children with autism were
necessarily exposed to air pollution in utero, said epidemiologist Michael Rosanoff, associate
director for public health at Autism Speaks. We know autism is
a complex disorder and underlying genetic and biological factors
interact to influence susceptibility. The next step is to identify
the biological mechanisms that
connect air pollution to autism
and identify ways to treat if not
prevent the harm to brain development.
While many studies linking
environmental toxins and autism

have been inconclusive, one developing research approach appears to hold great promise. Remarkably, fallen baby teeth can
be used to track a childs prenatal and infant exposure to chemicals thus allowing scientists to
determine what environmental
causes may have contributed to
the disorders development.
As a result, we can use teeth
like an archeological record,
says Dr. Raymond Palmer of
the University of Texas Health
Science Center. The enamel
of different types of teeth begins to form at different points
during prenatal development.
In infancy, the enamel continues
to absorb chemicals circulating
through the babys body. Palmer says the greatest insights from
dental analysis may come from
looking at chemical exposures
along with gene abnormalities,
which may affect ones vulnerability to potentially toxic chemicals. Its not necessarily genes or
environment, he adds. Its likely
to be both.
Alysson Muotri at the University of California San Diego Department of Pediatrics is using
teeth analysis to identify gene

abnormalities in children with


autism, even in cases with no
previous known genetic cause.
Parents of an 8-year-old autistic
boy mailed Muotris team one
of the boys baby teeth, and the
researchers were able to detect
a mutation in a gene known as
TRPC6. The researchers treated
the autistic boy with hyperforin,
the active ingredient in St. Johns
Wort. Dental analysis could potentially lead to personalized
treatment for autism, whether
the cause be identified as genetic,
environmental or both.

agreement that seeks to unite


the economic interests of 12
countries that border the Pacific Ocean by lowering trade
tariffs and establishing an international trade court to settle
disputes. TPP emerged as a West
Coast equivalent to the proposed
Trans-Atlantic Trade and Investment Partnership, designed to
ease trade restrictions between
the U.S. and Europe. But TPP
has progressed much faster
thanks to the willingness of Pacific nations to play ball.
International negotiators released a draft of the TPP agreement in October 2015 and are
awaiting approvals from participating governments. However,
despite the theoretical advantages of more fluid international trade, the current draft has
several complications that could
lead to a variety of problems for
participating nations and others, meaning its implementation
is far from a sure thing at this
point.
Green leaders criticize the
Obama administration and negotiators from other countries
for keeping early talks on the
formation of the TPP closed
to observers and media. Many
individuals and public interest groups requested access to
the discussions, fearing that the
agreement would unfairly favor
large corporations. However,
those appeals were ignored and
the drafted document revealed
what many feel was a prioritization of corporate interests over
health and environmental concerns. Without any enforceable
guarantees for environmental
protection, the TPP could actually significantly contribute
to global warming through increased exportation of U.S. fossil
fuel supplies.
Additionally,
differences
in national policies regulating
chemical use, artificial fertilizers and seeds from genetically
modified organisms (GMOs)
have yielded an agreement that
encourages minimal protection.

Alysson Muotri, of the University of California San Diego


Department of Pediatrics, is using teeth analysis to identify
gene abnormalities in children with autism, even in cases
with no previous known genetic cause.
The nonprofit Public Citizen
points out that existing U.S. regulation of pesticide and GMO
labeling on packaging could be
challenged in the international
court as trade barriers. Another
point of contention is the distinct
advantage given to foreign corporations under the current TPP
model. Overseas firms would be
able to sue the U.S. government
over new policies that disrupt
the companys expectations.
Perhaps more troubling is
whats not included in the document, which fails to mention how it will protect from
over-harvesting of limited natural resources. Green groups
point out that, while the TPP
accounts for nearly a third of
global fish harvest, there are no
provisions to protect against
overfishing. The draft also barely
mentions enforceable safeguards
of endangered species products,
such as elephant ivory.
Yet another issue critics say
is woefully ignored is social justice. With free-trade opening up,
even more American jobs would
be sent overseas to reduce costs.

Economists estimate that 5 million U.S. jobs could shift oversees under the TPP, resulting in
serious pay cuts for American
workers. Meanwhile, the richest
10 percent would profit at even
higher rates, adding to an already
drastic U.S. wealth inequality.
Clearly, the current draft of
the TPP agreement needs a lot
of work before Congress should
even consider it. Those opposed
to the current version of the
TPP can voice their dissatisfaction by signing onto the Stop
the Trans-Pacific Partnership
petition on MoveOn.org, or by
urging your representatives in
Congress to vote against it altogether.

Inn (located near Bash Bish Falls).


When the Inn burned down to
the ground on Sept. 18, 1918, Jean
Pierre August Dalmas headwaiter of the Inn at the time
worked his courage and climbed
onto the roof to save the flag.
After the fire, Dalmas relocated with his family, and the flag, to
Valdese, N.C., where every Fourth
of July he proudly displayed his
flag. The flag remained with the
Dalmas family ever since.
Last December, Dalmass
grandson, Pierre, reached out to
Blue for more information on the
fire that devastated the Bash Bish
Inn. This is when Blue learned of
the existence of the flag, and over
some conversations Pierre agreed
that the flag should return to its
hometown. The flag was mailed
this spring, and is currently in the
possession of Blue.
A historians love
Historian by profession, Howard Blue authors the Copake History Facebook page. He has lived
in Copake about a dozen years,
he said.
His attachment to the town
and the importance of history led
him to start the Facebook page to
share stories of Copakes past. He
found that Copake holds a fascinating history, he said.
We dont protect our history
and historical artifacts sufficiently, he said.
Efforts to conserve historical
landmarks and period pieces in
this quaint town are not common,
said Blue.
Most recently, in October,
there was an old inn building
demolished, which he said was
sad for him to watch. With the
demolition of that inn, Blue said
he worries that Copakes Railroad
Depot may have a similar fate.
There is no effort to save it.
It could be turned into a tourist
center or a museum, he said.
But with the restoration and

conservation of a clock tower


that stands in the center of town
there is hope for future projects
to save historical landmarks.
That project, he said, proved
the communitys commitment to
preserve its most prized artifacts.
I love seeing what the community does to protect history,
Blue said.
He also said that the flag is
a symbol that represents the
towns tourism industry, and
that its display would also represent the pride the town has in
its history.
Future plans for a
historic flag
Blue has already contacted a
textile expert who suggested the
flag be conserved to maintain its
authentic look.
The flag would not be able to
be flown again, he said.
The cost to do so is estimated
to be around $11,000.
Notable town figures also involved in this project are Jeanne
Mettler and Russ Davis who
were involved with the fundraising for the clock tower revival
project.
Where the flag is to be displayed is yet to be decided by the
projects committee, but some
ideas have already been tossed
around: historical societies in the
proximity of Copake; the Roeliff
Jansen Community Library; a
recreation building in Copake;
and in nearby towns or villages
such as Millerton.
The idea would be to display
the flag periodically in different
places for an allotted amount of
time, and for its grand welcome
home to display it near its original site. Blue said he hopes the
Dalmas family will be able to
make it to the flags 21st century
debut.

project contact Howard Blue at

Birds in 2015:

Curiouser and curiouser


By FRED BAUMGARTEN
Special to The Millerton News

The year just ended may go


down in (natural) history as the
Year of the Rare Bird. And Im not
talking about the undercooked
turkey you had for Christmas.
During the month of December alone, a western tanager
was hanging out in New Haven,
American white pelicans were aswimming in Old Saybrook and
an ash-throated flycatcher was
catching flies in Montauk, N.Y.
These birds are many, many miles
from where they naturally occur
at this time of year or any time
of year, for that matter.
As its name implies, the western tanagers home range does not
cross east of the Mississippi. Same
for the ash-throated flycatcher, a
bird of the arid Southwest. And
while the flycatcher is a fairly

drab species, the tanager male


(including the New Haven bird) is
a sunny yellow with a red-orange
head. White pelicans, among the
largest North American birds,
come a little closer to us, to the
Midwest and South.
I had the chance to chase two
of these rarities last month a
behavior the English call twitching. On Christmas Day I visited
the Shawangunk Grasslands National Wildlife Refuge in Walkill,
N.Y., following reports of a gyrfalcon that had returned to the
area for the second time in the
year. This location, I should add,
is little more than an hour from
the Northwest Corner.
The gyr is the largest and
most powerful falcon in the
world. Its natural habitat is the
Arctic tundra. Some have a white
plumage, others gray. Thanks to
email, a birders best friend, I was

able to locate the bird among a


gaggle of gazers a short distance
from the refuge, perched on a
tree overlooking a farm field.
Life bird for me the first I
have ever seen.
Only two weekends earlier, I
had made a similar trip to Brooklyns Prospect Park to see what
may be the ultimate celebrity
bird: a male painted bunting that
has leisurely lingered in the park
since the beginning of December.
Talk about a stunner! This is a
rainbow bird, with plumage of
lime green, yellow, purple and
red. This wanderer from the
Deep South feeds obligingly in
full view of gawking multitudes,
astride one of the parks many
footpaths.
The inevitable questions that
occur are: How did these birds
get here? What will happen to
them? Unfortunately, its hard to

know for sure, but its difficult to


rule out climate change or at
least the incredibly un-winter we
have had so far.
Birds do get lost or carried
off by weather systems far more
than most people realize; the
search for rarities (also known
as accidentals or vagrants)
keeps a lot of birders on their
toes. The warmer temperatures
may make it far easier for these
birds to wander farther north
and east, and stay longer, than
would otherwise be possible.
As to what will happen, the
possibilities include birds staying long-term, as long as food
is plentiful; birds finding their
way back to their normal home
ranges; and birds perishing, if
the weather turns harsh, or at
the hands (claws) of predators.
What will 2016 bring? Stay
tuned!

Jan. 14 - Jan. 20, 2016

THEATER: MARSDEN EPWORTH


The Music Man

All It Takes Is Music, a Man and a Miracle

e learn from the


start that Professor Harold Hill is
a scoundrel. He gives traveling salesmen a bad name,
one of that tribe aboard a
train rattling through the
state of Iowa complains. Hill
comes to a town, creates
a boys band, sells instruments and uniforms and
skips before anyone discovers he knows nothing about
music.
And so Meredith Willsons 1957 Tony Award-winning musical (beating out
the ground-breaking and
powerful West Side Story
for heavens sake) about
midwestern, small-town life
opens with the memorable
talk-song, Rock Island,
and a coach-full of salesmen
bouncing across the landscape, wondering where
their next dollar is coming
from.
Professor Hill knows,
of course. Hes heading for
River City, a town with lots
of kids.
This is terrain that director Michael Berkeley has
mined many times before.
A few years back, Berkeley,

a founder of TriArts and its


onetime artistic and music
director, was asked at an
audition how many children he planned to cast. As
many as we can fit on the
stage, he said. And once
again, Berkeley, along with
fellow director and choreographer Lori J. Belter, founder
of the Housatonic Musical
Theatre Society, has done
a great job casting a lot of
very well-rehearsed and tremendously engaged young
people (and concomitantly
filling the theater with lots
of parents and friends) for
this spirited and sometimes
touching production.
True to form, the professor, played, alas, by a rather
listless and disheveled
Christopher Gilbert, hits
town, gets word of the new
billiard parlor and arouses
anxieties about wayward
boys shooting pool, and
taking to using words like
swell and phrases like sos
your old man.
Stirred by Hills promise
of shimmering trumpets,
various other instruments
such as euphoniums and
bassoons, as well as braided

uniforms and well-mannered youth, the parents of


River City buy in.
But oh, if only life were
that simple. The towns
librarian and piano teacher
Marian Paroo, a spinster,
is suspicious. She is also
beautiful. And Amy LeBlanc
performs Willsons gorgeous, sometimes wistful,
songs like an angel.
So Harold Hill is in
trouble. He may not know
a thing about music, but he
is a master manipulator of
human beings. He knows he
can divert trouble by turning school board members
into a barbershop quartet.
One note on the pitch pipe
and they are off and singing,
wonderfully in this case. But
Marian is another matter.
She has no time for this
fellow, and so the professor
must settle, in song at least,
for the sadder but wiser
girl, a Hester seeking to
win just one more A.
This is the thing about
The Music Man. It is wonderful in every way. Willson
wrote a witty, touching,
funny, clever musical (with,
incidentally, the most

unusual rhyme around:


Marian and carrion), and
the Centerstage production
at Rhinebecks Center for
Performing Arts has done
it right. The musical direction by Paul and Joanne
Schubert is spot on. The
sets are simple and charming, the costumes, lovely,
the dancing, good; and the
performances are wry when
theyre supposed to be and
open-hearted when it matters. Jamison Fountain is
fine as 8-year-old Winthrop,
the boy mourning the loss
of his dad; and Cindy Kubik
as Mrs. Paroo, his mother, is
spirited and touching. Most
everyone has done right
by this lovely show about
human nature and miracles
and, of course, romance.
The Music Man, based
on a story by Meredith Willson and Franklin Lacey, with
book, music and lyrics by
Willson, runs at The Center
for Performing Arts at Rhinebeck through Jan. 31. For
tickets and information, go

ART SCENE: MARSDEN EPWORTH

A Varied and
Entertaining Show

ts called a Winter
Warmer, The White
Gallerys annual exhibit
of varied very varied
pieces by 17 artists. It
opened this week with
works by photographers
and painters.
Its an unusual show.
Every two weeks its
recurated, gallery owner Tino Galluzzo says. I
add new pieces and move
them around to change it
up. And in a show like this
without a point of view,

you can mix abstract and


traditional work.
And mix he does.
Most prominent on entering the gallery is Avery
Danzigers very large and
starlit photograph of Jockeys Ridge in North Carolina in the middle of the
night. The star streaks and
the glowing horizon speak
of a lengthy and expert
exposure. Its a beautiful
scene.

THE OLDEST LIVING THINGS IN THE WORLD

MOVIE: PATRICK L. SULLIVAN


Concussion

A Serious Matter
Needing Better
Treatment

ust in time for the


pro football playoffs
comes Peter Landesmans Concussion,
starring Will Smith as Dr.
Bennet Omalu, a pathologist who identified
what is now known as
chronic traumatic encephalopathy in National
Football League players.
Omalu, a Nigerian,
has an uphill battle
with his coworkers and
colleagues, with the immensely powerful NFL
and with resentful fans.
The film starts promisingly enough, with
David Morse playing the
increasingly disturbed
Mike Webster, center for
the legendary Pittsburgh
Steelers teams of the
1970s.
Webster is living in his
pickup truck, and is so
out of it he is yanking his
own teeth and glueing
them back in his mouth.
He dies, officially, of a
heart attack.
But Omalu orders a
full autopsy and eventually concludes that years
of collisions incurred
playing football had
damaged Websters
brain. He finds other
players with similar
conditions, publishes a
paper and thats when
the trouble starts.
Along the way he
meets a young woman
from Kenya, falls in love,
gets married and starts
to build a house.
And the NFL pushes
back.
Omalus boss is indicted on federal charges for
misusing his office. His
wife is stalked and loses

their first child. Omalu


loses his faith in the
American Dream, and
eventually takes a job in
California.
Only when another
ex-player, Dave Duerson, kills himself and
leaves a note asking that
his brain be examined
for CTE, does the dam
break to some extent,
and Omalu is somewhat
vindicated.
This is all good
material, and should
make for a compelling
film. But Concussion
is lifeless. Loose ends
abound. Is Prema OMalu
(Gugu Mbatha-Raw)
really being stalked by a
mysterious car, or is she
being paranoid? And
is that really enough to
cause problems with her
pregnancy?
Are the Feds acting
as proxies for the NFL?
Are the nasty phone calls
Omalu receives the work
of conspirators or of
individual nut cases?We
dont know and if
the film moved faster it
wouldnt matter. But if a
film has a slow, deliberate pace, it better explain
everything because
the audience has the
leisure time to wonder.
The net effect is,
ultimately, a dull and
somewhat preachy film.
The issue of concussions is a serious one. It
deserves a more forceful
treatment than this.
Concussion is rated
PG-13 for thematic
material including some
disturbing images, and
language.

Making a Murderer

TRI-CORNER CALENDAR
THE LAKEVILLE JOURNAL THE MILLERTON NEWS THE WINSTED JOURNAL

Hubris and a Flawed


Auditions
Justice System

spent New Years Day


binge-watching Making
a Murderer on Netflix.
Every time the credits rolled
on an episode of the 10part documentary series,
I watched the next one. By
the time it was over, I was
overwhelmed by anger,
frustration, sadness and the
desire to share this series
with others.
The documentary follows
Steven Avery, a Wisconsin
man who spent 18 years
in prison for a rape he did
not commit. DNA evidence
led to his exoneration in
2003, when he became a
free man. In 2005, while
filing a $36 million lawsuit
against Manitowoc County
for wrongful imprisonment,
he was charged with the
murder of Teresa Halbach,
a photographer who visited
the Avery familys salvage
yard to photograph a minivan for Auto Trader magazine. Averys 16-year-old
nephew, Brendan Dassey,
was also charged with participating in the murder.
Making a Murderer,
which was filmed over a
period of 10 years, is filled
with courtroom footage,
recorded phone calls from
prison and intimate interviews with the Avery family.
Filmmakers Laura Ricciardi and Moira Demos read
about Averys case in The
New York Times in November 2005 and headed out
to Wisconsin to attend his
preliminary hearing. They
ultimately moved there to
follow every development
as it occurred in real time.
They followed the trials of
Avery and Dassey, as well
as the aftermath of the
verdicts. Even though the
verdicts are a decade old, I
will avoid stating them here.
For those of you who dont
know how the story unfolds,
hearing the juries reach
their decisions is incredibly
powerful.
If there wasnt undeniable proof that these trials
occurred, I would swear
that Making a Murderer
was a scripted, serialized
courtroom drama. There are
shocking and heartbreaking

Our question
going in was
never about guilt
or innocence or
about trying to
solve this crime.
twists and turns throughout
every hour-long episode
that will leave viewers
asking countless questions:
Why did the Manitowoc
County sheriff s department
participate in the murder
investigation, despite the
clear conflict of interest?
Did the police plant evidence to frame Avery? Was
Dasseys confession coerced?
Our question going in
was never about guilt or
innocence or about trying
to solve this crime. It was really an exploration into the
system, Demos told CBS
News. This is an important
distinction to make. As you
watch Making a Murderer,
youll likely find yourself
attempting to assign guilt
or innocence to Avery and
Dassey. Perhaps youll question whether the series is
biased toward Avery, since
it focuses so much on his
family. Former Wisconsin
state prosecutor Ken Kratz
told People magazine that
the series left out key pieces
of evidence; in response,
Ricciardi made a statement
to The Wrap, a website, that
we stand by the project
we did. It is thorough. It is
accurate. It is fair. That is
why it took us 10 years to
produce it.
In any case, Making a
Murderer shows a flawed
legal system. Dean Strang,
a sensible defense lawyer
for Avery, says it best: Most
of what ails our criminal
justice system lies in unwarranted certitude on the part
of police officers and prosecutors and defense lawyers
and judges and jurors that
theyre getting it right. That
they are simply right. Just a
tragic lack of humility of everyone who participates in
our criminal justice system.

Galluzzo said, referring to
himself and his wife Susan,

For simplicity and serenity, Francis Ashforths
Tidal Inlet 5 in sand and

Deborah Losadas Provisional Visibility, a sleakly
