QChamber of Commerce president stepping downBy Andrew Ragali
Special to The Citizen
Quinnipiac Chamber ofCommerce President RobinWilson announced her retire-ment last week after 28 yearswith the nonprofit organiza-tion.
Wilson made the an-nouncement to the chamber’sexecutive board on May 7,and again during the cham-ber’s regular board meetingthe following day. Though herretirement is effective imme-diately, Wilson said she willstay on as president for sixmonths, after which she willwork with the chamber as aconsultant for another sixmonths.
“I have put everything thatI have into it,” Wilson said ofher work with the chamber.But long hours have kept herfrom spending time with herfamily, Wilson said, and shewants that to change. “I needto be able to do that,” shesaid.
“It’s time for the chamberto look at some new blood,”she added.
Wilson’s departure comesthree months after CindySemrau, vice president, chiefoperating officer and a cham-ber employee for 27 years,had her position eliminated.
Chamber officials didn’t in-dicate why the position waseliminated, but Semrau saidon Facebook it was for budg-etary reasons. At the time,Wilson said “it was a deci-sion made by other people.”
Semrau earned $78,611 in2011, and Wilson earned$101,308, according to thechamber’s most recent pub-licly available tax filing.
After learning that Wilsonwas retiring, John Mezzan-otte, legal counsel for thechamber, said he “asked herto reconsider.”
“We tried anything wecould do to persuade her tostay on,” he said. Mezzanottesaid he even asked her to con-sider staying on past the yearshe will remain with thechamber before retiring. “Iwas disappointed she’s leav-ing.” Mezzanotte explainedthat Wilson would be stayingon for six months as a condi-tion of her contract.
Board member ChristineMansfield said she didn’t at-tend the most recent meetingwhen Wilson announced herretirement, but heard about
it from fellow board mem-bers.
Mansfield said the cham-ber has been making an ef-fort to better oversee leader-ship.
“I know there’s been an el-ement of focus of keeping aneye on the leadership team,”she said.
“I respect Robin for all shedoes,” Mansfield added.
After she leaves, Wilsonsaid she will miss several as-pects of her job.
“The best part of the job isthe people part,” she said,“and the connection with thebusinesses, to be able tomake those connections. Thepeople I’ve met and workedwith over the last 28 yearsare fabulous.”
The chamber will surviveher departure, Wilson said.“It will be fine.”
Wilson said she can re-member when she startedher job in 1985. At the time,she said, the chamber wasstruggling, with about 200members, and she couldn’teven cash her own paycheck,even though the ’80s wereviewed as a prosperousdecade.
“Those were the good olddays,” she said, remember-ing how she worked behind afolding table while sitting ona folding aluminum chair.
Now, when economictimes are said to be at theirworst, Wilson said the cham-ber has more than 600 mem-bers, a healthy bank accountand has received numerousawards.
“We are indebted to herfor all the things that she’s

‘Oblivion’ surprises with this post-apocalyptic view of EarthBy Tanya Feke M.D.
Special to the Citizen
It is nice to be surprised. I’d strolled into a theater
in Pennsylvania, with mymother, on a day trip just tosee what was playing. Wehappened to be right on timefor the next set of screeningsand we placed our bet on“Oblivion.”
Granted, Tom Cruise hasnot had the most fantastictrack record of late (“Rock ofAges,” “Jack Reacher,”“Knight and Day,”“Valkyrie”). And you maycringe to hear this sci-fi ad-venture pays homage to the“Tom running from his prob-lems” scene a la “The Firm.”And yes, it takes a good 15minutes before you feel youare watching Jack the char-
acter as opposed to TomCruise playing the part ofJack. But once you get pastall that, the film deliverssomething special and evenmeaningful.
Oblivion opens in post-apocalyptic 2077 after Earthhas been invaded by alienscalled Scavs. Thoughmankind allegedly wins thewar, the planet is decimated.Humans are forced to live off-planet with the exception ofthose lucky few tasked to se-cure Earth’s natural re-sources and to destroy Scavsfrom claiming those re-sources as their own. Amidthe desolate ruins, Jack, andhis partner Victoria, work as“an effective team,” even asthe truth of the world theyhave known unravels aroundthem.
Any truly great sci-fi filmrequires two key elements.The first of these is a believ-able alternate universe. Tothis end, visual effects oftentake center stage. Manycritics have given praise to“Oblivion” for its CGI but Ihave a more simplistic eye.The film seems little morethan a glorified “StarWars,” though the graphicnovel style holds its ownsort of appeal. The film doesmore for me in words than itdoes in its many attempts towow action scene after ac-tion scene.
Secondly, sci-fi success
rides on powerful themes –man vs. man, man vs. alien,man vs. machine. In “Obliv-ion,” Jack and Victoria’smemories are erased beforetheir mission. This acts toprotect them should they becaptured by Scavs, but theheart of their memories,those memories with soul,cannot be undone. Echoes ofexperience shape their reac-tions to their predicament,testing their love and loyal-ty, drawing in the veryessence of humanity. I prac-tically rubbed my hands to-gether in giddy joy as the in-tricate ethics of the saga
unfolded.Now don’t get me wrong.
As much as I loved the un-derlying philosophical is-sues, there were annoyingflaws with the film. AfterJack is punched in the facewith an assault rifle, whydoes he only have a smallgash across his nose as op-posed to a swollen brokenbeak? After the romanticbackstory between Jack andJulia, why is there not an es-sential love scene betweenthem like there was be-tween him and Victoria?

As one of the threefounders of the North HavenRotary Unsung Hero Award,Bernadette Casella recentlyexplained to the service clubthat two outstanding highschool students deserved spe-cial recognition because oftheir selfless service to oth-ers. She pointed out that theUnsung Hero Award is notgiven for academic ability,but rather because studentshave exhibited exemplarycharacter traits, “somethingthat cannot be measuredwith a letter grade.” She saidthat the special qualities thatthese youth have developedwill be carried by themthroughout their lives, and“hopefully will be passed onto others along the way.”Their achievement can be at-tributed to their environ-ment, especially in regard tothe fine example and encour-agement of their parents.
Carol Ardito, a businessteacher at the high school,provided her listeners with alist of some of the accom-plishments of the first awardrecipient, Noel Nixon. Arditosaid that for many years
NHHS students inspire
Noel, a high school senior,has been involved with thepreparation and delivery ofholiday meals for homelesspeople in New Haven, includ-ing driving down to the NewHaven Green to make sure allmeals were all delivered andno one was left out. Further-more, Noel is involved withthe collection and distribu-tion of winter coats for thehomeless, and works with thefood bank and various othercharities. Describing the stu-dent as a person who spendscountless hours working tohelp find good homes for res-cue animals, the teacher
added, “She is a very quietyoung lady who had no ideaof all she does for her com-munity.” In her brief re-marks, Noel thanked thegroup for the award and alsothanked her family for all oftheir support. She was ac-companied by her parents,Elizabeth and Harry Nixon.
Joined by her parents, Eveand Carlos Abreu, the otherrecipient of the Unsung HeroAward was VanessaReynolds. Described by thecommittee chair as, “bravein the face of fears, and doesthe right thing even when noone is looking,” Vanessa gavea detailed overview of hermany years of volunteerism,which began as a ten year oldworking at an animal shelter
in Branford. “I’ve done thisfor eight years now, and don’tplan to stop anytime soon,”said the student.
Reynolds’ baking class in-structor, June Sturtz, wrote“She practically teaches theclass when I have a substi-tute.” In her recommenda-tion, the teacher noted, “Ifthere is something thatneeds to be done, she’s thefirst to volunteer”.
Vanessa’s list of accom-plishments included honor-ing the victims at SandyHook Elementary School, aswell as sending thank youcards to the first respondersand the “police officers whohelped keep us safe” whenclasses resumed.
Her latest adventure in-
volves art therapy sessionsfor hospitalized children, buther giving spirit may havebeen best expressed in herclosing comment when shedescribed her work withFEMA after the latest hurri-cane. She had cooked “somecomfort food to make every-one feel better,” and conclud-ed, “Best feeling ever!”
In addition to all of this,she helps with local blooddrives and mentors youngerstudents. The senior saidthat her future aspirationsinclude employment as achef, or owning her own pas-try shop; and she is presentlywriting a gluten free cook-book. When expressing herthanks to the Rotary Club,she added that she was “sothankful for the parents Ihave who pushed me to goagainst my fears.”

Rather than delay tough fiscal decisionsuntil after next election cycle, Gov. Dannel P.Malloy should prioritize Connecticut aboveretaining office and seek immediate, effec-tive financial solutions.
While Malloy’s leadership on social/pub-lic issues has been solid — education reform,tragedy response, gun laws — his monetarymath hasn’t added up. Outspokenly criticalof Republican predecessor M. Jodi Rell’s$3.7-billion deficit he inherited in 2011, thegovernor approaches next campaign seasonwith his own red-ink woes. Connecticut facesa projected $1.2-billion shortfall this fiscalyear and a $1.3-billion gap in 2014. If passed,his proposed biennial budget reportedlywould contain a deficit of over $680 millionin 2015, and another of almost $800 millionthe next year.
Worsening matters for Malloy, he has al-ready exhausted several monetary maneu-vers which could have been of benefit. Cost-saving concessions the governor negotiatedtwo years ago with state unions block layoffsof those employees until fiscal year 2014. Tohelp mop up Rell’s red ink, he enacted a his-torically high tax increase of $1.5 billion in2011. After taking considerable heat for that
massive revenue raiser, Malloy has pledgedno additional taxes while addressing newshortfalls.
Making that promise unlikely is that,without major cuts to welfare and educationsystems, the governor needs significant eco-nomic recovery to balance his budgets. Thisstate is especially reliant upon sales and in-come taxes for government revenues. Withconsumerism goes Connecticut. But a pri-mary reason Malloy must contend with fur-ther shortfalls is because, in constructingthe $1.5-billion tax hike, he gambled incor-rectly that sales would dramatically in-crease. Sluggish revival of retail and jobgains means continued red-ink issues.
Backed into a fiscal corner, up soon for re-election, the governor regrettably has takenmany measures to defer painful-but-properdeficit reduction. Malloy proposes to borrow$750 million, and refinance $1 billion in oper-ating debt from 2009. Ninety million in mu-nicipal grants would move onto credit. Hisbudget would exceed the constitutionalspending cap by $466 million next fiscal year,and $691 million in 2014-15.
Commendably, the governor has sought

An Ounce of Prevention
Do you know whatF.A.S.T means?
By V. Deborah Culligan,RN, MPH
If you do, then you maybe able to save a life! Theacronym F.A.S.T. stands forclues for assessing if some-one is having a stroke.
F stands for face: Doesthe face look uneven? Doesone side droop down? Is itnumb? Can the personsmile?
A stands for arm: Is onearm weak or numb? Doesone arm drift down? Askthe person to raise botharms.
S stands for speech. Doestheir speech soundstrange? Is the speechslurred? Can the person re-peat a simple sentence?
T stands for time. Withevery second that passes,brain cells die. Call 911 atany sign of a stroke. Don’twait to get help.
The symptoms of astroke are usually de-scribed with the adjective“sudden.” If someone hassudden numbness or weak-ness of the face, arm or leg,especially on one side; sud-den confusion, troublespeaking or understandingspeech; sudden trouble see-
ing in one or both eyes; sud-den trouble walking, dizzi-ness or loss of balance orcoordination; or sudden se-vere headache with nocause, they could be havinga stroke.
The chances of survivaland recovery are greatly in-creased when treatment isreceived quickly, especiallywithin three hours.
The Centers for DiseaseControl and Preventionstates that strokes are aleading cause of death anddisability in the U.S. Mostpeople don’t realize that astroke may not kill them,but can change lifestyledrastically. Consider “Un-cle John”: He alwaysthought that if he had astroke, it would probablykill him. “If that’s the wayI’ll go, so be it!” was hismotto. What Uncle Johndid not realize was that thestroke he had did not kill

some actions outside of polit-ically safe, kick-the-can phi-losophy. About $550 millionin cuts to state hospitals --garnering public protest --are part Malloy’s $1.8-billionproposed spending reduc-tions. In what seems like taxincreases, he suggests ex-tending several taxes set toexpire in 2014-15, including a20 percent surcharge on thecorporation tax, a cap on in-surance premium credit forbusinesses, and a levy onpower plants. According toan in-depth Connecticut Mir-ror series on Malloy’s finan-cial policies, citizens wouldpay an additional $222 mil-lion next year alone.
Those potentially contro-versial resolutions won’t beenough to close several bil-lion worth of forthcomingshortfalls. One could wonderwhether the governor did notback more sweeping, austerestrategies out of wariness oflosing public support beforehis bid to retain office in 2014.Regardless of that election’sresults, Malloy, or his succes-sor, must stop borrowingfrom the future and enact dif-ficult-butnecessary fiscalchanges to halt what has be-come an economically dam-aging legacy of deficits.

additional buildings onsitelikely went up in stages. Thecompany began decommis-sioning production lines andstructures there around the90s, Frederickson said, aprocess that also occurredover time. Rabina Propertiesbought the land in 2001.
Now, over a decade later,and after recent years de-fined fiscally by global finan-cial turmoil, those 165 acresare finally poised for a benefi-cial future.
“We’re in the beginningstages of putting up a giantindustrial park,” Freda said.“We’re already interviewingcompanies to come in, com-panies of all sizes. This willnot be mixed use. This will be
an industrial zone, possiblywith wholesale distributioncenters, light manufacturing,commercial office space andother businesses.”
Freda compared the plansthere to a modernized ver-sion of nearby Defco Park,another industrial park.
“This should be a big boostto the local Grand List. Thisrepresents profitable tax dol-lars,” Freda said. “But itshould also have a low impactof town services. A mixed-use development would havehad a greater impact on townservices.”
“I’m very optimistic aboutthe outcome of this over thenext five to six years,” headded. “This should be ahuge positive for NorthHaven overall, not just interms of tax revenue.”

Let’s not even mention thatJack wears a New York Yan-kee’s cap – gasp!
While I may hem and hawthat the film ran a bit long(perhaps a good 15 minutescould have been cut), everyscene did play its part inforeshadowing for laterscenes. The film is far fromperfect but it does deliver anemotional punch. With ele-ments of “Star Wars,” “TheMatrix” and “Total Recall,”“Oblivion” brings together
the best of the best with amodern spin. Altogether, itis a welcome surprise andworth a view.

Commentary
The Esty’s: what scandal?By Chris Powell
Scandal-mongers are feeding heavily offConnecticut’s power couple, U.S. Rep. Eliz-abeth Esty, D-5th District, and her hus-band, the commissioner of the state De-partment of Energy and EnvironmentalProtection, Daniel C. Esty. But the sup-posed offenses of the Estys are actuallyonly the norms of political life that couldbe held against most officeholders.
Prior to his appointment by GovernorMalloy, Daniel Esty was a professor of en-vironmental law and policy at Yale, a pro-lific author, and a business consultant.Connecticut’s largest electric utility,Northeast Utilities, had been among hisclients, though not for five years. Soon af-ter his appointment Esty said he would re-cuse himself from regulatory issues deal-ing specifically with two dozen formerclients, including NU.
This was more a matter of politics thangood governance, since Esty no longer hadthose clients and most government ap-pointees are qualified by their experience.To turn experience into conflict of interestwould diminish government’s competence.Of course there are different kinds of ex-perience just as there are business stoogesand labor stooges. But what the governorfound interesting about Esty was his worknudging business toward environmental
concerns. Now the environmentalists are mad at
Esty for supporting greater access for Con-necticut to Canadian hydro-electric power.They complain that classifying hydro pow-er as renewable power will undermine de-velopment of in-state sources of such pow-er — that is, with more access to cheap andrenewable hydro power from Canada,there may be less reason to tax Connecticutelectricity users surreptitiously throughhigher rates to subsidize expensive and po-litically correct forms of renewable powerhere. But Connecticut’s energy costs are sohigh that priority must be given to bring-ing them down.
Meanwhile heating oil dealers are madat Esty for advancing Governor Malloy’splan to increase Connecticut’s access tonatural gas, more power that is cheap andless harmful to the environment.
The Malloy administration’s idea is toincrease energy choices and competitionand let markets, not government, do moreto pick the winners — not always the ap-proach in a people’s republic.
Esty is spreading this gospel far andwide. He did it the other day in a confer-ence call with UBS Securities, which wantsto know if Connecticut companies are

Mayer said Wilson’s retire-ment is a “very positivething,” because, while the

Ralph Mesite, a member ofthe chamber’s board, said thepanel “was shocked” to hearof Wilson’s decision.
“She had been there sinceday one in a little tiny chairand desk for a handful ofmembers,” Mesite said. “Wewere just like, ‘what are youkidding me, that can’t be.’ ”
Wilson is “a great woman,”Mesite said, adding that thefact she’ll be working withthe chamber for the next year“shows dedication.”
Mayer said a search com-mittee will be established todetermine how to fill Wil-son’s position. Wilson saidshe has been asked to consulton filling the position.
“I’m very honored,” shesaid. “I’m happy to help inany way I can.”

there could be more thinkingon this,” she said. “I realizethat a lot of towns arounddon’t have the services thatwe have. But I don’t reallylike tax increases at all. I feelthat taxes should be a littlebit lower, because we’re asmall town with a largeGrand List. I will be votingagainst this budget.”
Resident BernardMcLoughlin spoke in favor ofthe budget. “Although none ofus want a tax increase, Ithink this town is run verywell,” he said. “I hope every-one does come out and sup-port this budget.”
Because two large, newlyoccupied properties in townwill operate under certaintax exemptions — the Quin-nipiac University campus
and Yale-New Haven Hospitalbranch — their Grand Listcontributions will decrease.North Haven will receivesome state refunds throughthe PILOT program for suchsites, though. And Freda be-lieved the properties will at-tract additional business totown, thus helping accountfor lost tax revenue.
“Moving forward, I amconfident that very goodthings are going to happen inNorth Haven in terms of eco-nomic development, to growour top line revenue, to mini-mize the tax burden on resi-dents,” he added. “I am en-couraging everyone to vote‘yes’, and I support this budg-et.”

Sunday liquor sales a success? Depends on locationBy Molly Callahan
The Journal Inquirer
As the first anniversaryapproaches of Gov. Dannel P.Malloy’s signing legislationallowing Sunday liquorsales, it seems the success ofthat initiative depends onwhere you are.
“We’re just doing six days’worth of business over sevendays,” says Walter Silkows-ki, owner of Brown’s Pack-age Store in Manchester.
“It’s been a huge success,”says Dominic Alaimo, ownerof Freshwater Package Storein Enfield. “I’m extremelybusy on Sundays.”
The measure, which wassigned on May 20, 2012, end-ed the last of the state’s “bluelaws,” giving liquor storesthe option to open on Sun-days and on other holidaysthroughout the year - Memo-
rial Day, the Fourth of July,Labor Day, as well as theMondays after Sunday holi-days.
The extra day of businesshas left some storeownerswith a bad taste in theirmouths, however.
“I’d like to go home andhave dinner with my family,”Silkowski says. “Actually, Iliked it better when every-thing was closed on Sun-days.”
Mike Andreo, owner ofPutnam Plaza SuperiorLiquors in East Hartford,says his store was closed foronly three days this pastyear: Thanksgiving, Christ-mas, and Easter. “That’s along year,” he observes.
The measure doesn’t re-quire package stores to stayopen on Sundays; it justgives their owners the op-tion. But many owners say
they feel pressure to remainopen, whether they’re busyor not.
“You can’t be the only guywho’s closed,” Andreo says.
“We have to be open,”Silkowki says. “People willjust go somewhere else.”
Alaimo, who for years hadpushed for legislation thatwould allow Sunday sales,says the measure simplyputs liquor stores’ owners onthe same schedule as theircounterparts in any other re-tail field.
“Pizza shops are open allweekend, so they pick a dif-ferent day to be closed,” hesays, adding that liquorstores’ owners have the samechoice now. “No one else inany other industry has theluxury to demand that every-one closes on one day. It’sabout the right to be open.”
Compounding a potential-
ly slow Sunday sales day forstoreowners is the overheadcost to keep their stores openan extra day.
Carroll J. Hughes, execu-tive director and chief lobby-ist for the Connecticut Pack-age Store Association, saysthat package stores “spent atotal of $6.5 million in laborand utilities to keep theirstores open for an additional55 days a year.”
Hughes says he arrived atthat number through a sur-vey of the 1,100 liquor storesin the state.
“We called those who did-n’t respond, then averaged(their Sunday expenditures)on the low side,” he says.
In general, Hughes echoesSilkowski, saying that liquorstores are doing the sameamount of business, juststretched over more days.
“My stores are telling methat they broke even, or are alittle behind what they madelast year,” Hughes says.
Including both the group’sdues-paying members andthose who contribute in oth-er ways, such as to fundrais-ers, Hughes estimates thatthe Connecticut PackageStore Association has be-tween 500 and 600 members.That’s about half of the 1,100liquor stores in Connecticut .
He adds: “We spent $6.5million on a noble experi-ment. It is what it is.”
For grocery stores, howev-er, which already were openon Sundays, the measure hasbeen nothing but good forbusiness.
Eric Nilsson, store manag-er at Geissler’s Supermarketin Somers, says the extra dayof selling beer has increasedweekly sales significantly.
“We’re up by 8 to 10 per-cent per week,” Nilsson says.“It’s a convenience thing forpeople.”
Joe Panero, the store man-ager at Highland Park Mar-ket in Manchester, says thatSundays are now the secondbusiest day for beer sales atthe store. Saturdays are stillthe first, he says.
“We only saw a slight dropin beer sales on Saturdays,”since the legislation wentinto effect, Panero says. “Butwe more than make up for iton Sundays.”
Both Nilsson and Panerosay they have found that peo-ple are taking advantage ofthe opportunity to buy every-thing they’ll need for a partyin one place.
As far as what customersare buying with their beer,

NHHS boys’ lacrosse thinking playoffsBy Kevin Pataky
Special to The Citizen
North Haven High Schoolboys’ varsity lacrosse lastweek played Guilford andFairfield Prep in SCC battleswith top contenders in ClassM and Class L, respectfully.
The Indians traveled firstto Guilford last Monday anddropped an 11-5 affair. Sopho-more Colin Uyeki led NorthHaven in scoring with a pairof goals while seniors Quin-cy Pecora and Eric Califioreeach tallied a goal, as did jun-ior Mike Halloran. NHHSdropped to 5-8 while Guilfordimproved to 10-2.
On May 8, North Haven re-turned home to face lastyear’s Class L state champi-on Fairfield Prep. The Je-suits were 8-0 playing in statecompetition this year and 0-3out of state, but this provedto be no match for the Indi-ans as Prep won easily 15-6.
Senior co-captain Pecoraled NHHS’s offense withthree goals and sophomoreColin Uyeki added a pairwhile Junior Ethan Suracitallied one as well.
The loss dropped the Indi-ans to 5-9 and left them stilltwo wins short - with threeremaining - of a state playoffberth in the Class M playoffsnext month.
North Haven next traveledto Foran High School on
Monday to take on the Lions,who are in their third year ofexistence and had a similarrecord of 5-8.
Freshmen Nick Campanel-li put the Indians on theboard first, 1:08 into thegame, with his sixth goal ofthe season. About three min-utes later, sophomore ChrisBroadbent scored his firstgoal of the season to putNorth Haven up 2-0.
The Lions roared back andtied the score at two goalsapiece.
But Halloran scored witheight seconds left in the firstquarter to give NHHS a 3-2lead.
The defense tightened and

the Indians shut out Foran inthe second quarter, nettingtwo more goals to take a 5-2lead into halftime. Pecoranotched his 30th goal of theseason 1:16 into the secondand Uyeki scored about sevenminutes later.
This game continued to betight in the third period.North Haven had goals byUyeki and a pair by Cole Pec-ora, while defensively limit-ing the Lions to only onescore to take an 8-3 lead intothe final quarter.
The Indians took control ofthis game, which began to getvery physical, by scoringthree quick goals - all by Uye-ki - to open up an 11-3 lead.From there, Quincy Pecorascored another couple goalsand North Haven cruised to a14-5 victory.
Uyeki was the high scorerin this game with five goals toup his team leading total to 41on the season. Quincy Pecorahad three goals, while hisbrother Cole added two.
The win improved NHHS’srecord to 6-8 overall. Nowthey need to win one of theirfinal two games vs. either oftwo SCC Class L teams, WestHaven or Amity, to qualify forthe playoffs.

LiquorContinued from page 20
Nilsson says, “In general, it’speople buying beer along withtheir regular groceries,”rather than people stopping into buy solely beer.
“It’s just more convenientfor the customers, Panerosays. “It didn’t make sense tocover up (the beer) on Sun-days; it’s already there.”
The added conveniencemeans that Geissler’s at leasthas been able to recoup sales ithad been losing to Massachu-setts liquor stores, Nilssonsays.
This was an issue thatmany storeowners in north-central Connecticut hadfaced: losing customers toMassachusetts liquor storesthat have been open on Sun-days since 2004.
“If you drove up to Massa-chusetts on a Sunday, you usedto see lines of cars outsidepackage stores,” Alaimo says.
“Now, it’s maybe four cars inthe parking lots.”
Those customers who usedto hop over the border to gettheir liquor seem to be stay-ing in state now that theyhave the option to buy on Sun-days.
Data analysis from the Dis-tilled Spirits Council of theUnited States, which lobbiedon behalf of distillers andwholesalers in favor of theSunday sales legislation,shows that Connecticut hassubstantially outperformedits northern neighbor in vol-ume growth in recent months.
The council used data pro-vided by the Connecticut De-partment of Revenue Ser-vices and the MassachusettsDepartment of Revenue forthe months between May andDecember - the seven monthsafter the legislation passed,and the most recent for whichthere’s available data.
In that period, spirits, wine,and beer sales in Connecticuthave increased by 4.6 percent,
4.7 percent, and 2.5 percent re-spectively, compared with thesame period in 2011.
The same comparison inMassachusetts shows thatsales for spirits, wine, andbeer rose by 0.1 percent, 2.9percent, and 0 percent, respec-tively.
Because Connecticut taxesliquor at a higher rate, thesefigures indicate that it’s theconvenience of Sunday sales,rather than better prices thatare driving the growth in thisstate, according to a reportprovided by Ben Jenkins, vicepresident of the DistilledSpirits Council.
“For years, Connecticutresidents had to go to neigh-boring states where mer-chants selling alcoholic bev-erages were wide open forbusiness,” Kevin B. Sullivan,commissioner of Connecti-cut’s Department of RevenueServices, said in a release.“Connecticut lost business,lost sales, and lost taxes.”

In early March, RotaryDistrict 7980, which includesmost of the shoreline areatowns, sponsored its springRotary Youth LeadershipAwards (RYLA) programwhich “provides a model ofinspiration for our Rotarybrethren,” according to a dis-trict advisor for high-schoolyouth named David Ullman,a member of the NorthHaven Rotary Club. He re-
ported that there were 55 stu-dents representing multi-ethnic/racial backgroundshailing from NewHaven/Bridgeport to Madi-son/Darien. He added, “For48 hours, over a weekend,these young men and womenparticipated in a wide rangeof activities designed to re-flect the RYLA theme: Livingat the Edge of Your ComfortZone.” Participants from

North Haven High School in-cluded Angela DeFelippo, amember of the Rotary spon-sored Interact Club, as wellas Margi Patel, who was se-lected by the school adminis-tration.
Expressing how impressedhe was, Ullman went on tosay that these youths werechallenged to explore theirskills and talents. He saidthat they used team-buildingtasks as a way to examinepersonal best efforts, as wellas for competing with othergroups, all organized to pro-vide a sense of accomplish-ment while discovering self-worth.

worth investing in, particu-larly in light of the biggestcomplaint about businessconditions here, which isn’ttaxes but energy costs. Stategovernment might want Con-necticut companies to be con-sidered worth investing in.
In the conference call Estytalked about the Malloy ad-ministration’s pending ener-gy legislation, which in-cludes hydro power access, sohe was accused of playing fa-vorites because his formerclient NU is working withHydro-Quebec to bring itspower south. But Canada issimply where the hydro pow-er is, and Esty has stressedthat Connecticut could buy itfrom whoever could sell it.
The commissioner apolo-gized for the supposedly badappearances arising from thetiming of the conference call,but no confidential informa-tion was conveyed in it. In-deed, a few days earlier Estyhad given a similar briefingto the Journal Inquirer,again stressing natural gas,hydro power, greater con-sumer choice, and more com-petitive energy markets, andthe newspaper reported hiscomments the next day with-out generating scandal.
The clamor against Repre-sentative Esty, raised by Re-publicans, is that she has tak-en campaign contributionsfrom officials of companiesregulated by her husband’sdepartment — that a shake-down may be going on.
To reduce the clamor, theother day RepresentativeEsty returned $3,500 in con-tributions from NU sources.But those sources hardlyneed to curry her husband’sfavor indirectly through hercampaign any more thanthey need to curry her ownfavor directly, for Congressacts on energy and utilitypolicy too.
And of course Republi-cans also take contributionsfrom energy and utility inter-ests — and rare is the Repub-lican who supports public fi-nancing of campaigns to re-place financing by special in-terests.

You can reduce yourchance of a stroke throughlifestyle changes, recogniz-ing symptoms and followingyour doctor’s advice:
— Don’t ignore TIAs:About 10 percent of stokesare preceded by “temporarystrokes” (transient ischemicattacks or TIAs.) A TIA hasmany of the same symptomsof a stroke but is lasts a rela-tively short period of time,usually 24 hours of less. TIAsmay signal a problem thatcan lead to a disabling or fa-tal stroke.
— If you have diabetes,keep it under control.
— High blood pressure is aprimary cause of stroke. Youcan control this risk factor.You need to measure yourblood pressure and treat if itis high.
Other lifestyle changesthat can reduce the risk ofstroke include: quittingsmoking; increasing physicalactivity; eating a diet to lowerblood cholesterol; avoidingexcessive alcohol intake; los-ing weight; and gettingchecked for circulatory disor-ders.
Respond immediately ifsomeone shows the symp-toms of a stroke. Get medicalhelp right away. Quick imme-diate intervention results inincreased odds for survivalor recovery.
