October 2018Nl Final Edit October 2018 Presidents’ Message. Can we try something different: whatever else life has given us (and on the whole, we seem to be a blessed group, living our lives where people come to be on their hard-won vacations), we all have memories we cherish dearly of moments in our lives that can never be taken away from us, that cause us to smile and feel better about and for the world every time they pass through our consciousness. And we have other memories that, even if harsh, even if unpleasant, are etched into our minds and become a core part of who we are. Do we write these memories down, to share, for our children and grandchildren, for our friends? Probably not, but maybe yes. If not, could we do so? Yes, of course we could. And we might be better for the effort. So, a thought: could we encourage each other or ourselves to sit down and share some of these memories, either as fact or filtered as fiction, or even in the form of poetry. Could someone come forward each month and provide a piece of his/ her life for the Newsletter. Wade Sayer, who teaches writing at CCCC, has given us permission to use a memory piece he wrote for Veteran’s Day last year as a test. We thank him for that. Can we get some volunteers for future Newsletters? Enjoy the weather and the uncrowds before it is uncrowded for a reason.

Profile Annie Adler, Membership Director She loved the sound of her ski tips chattering across the flat ice, almost music making, anticipating… Turning at the ledge and heading down the steep slide of the bowl. This was why skiing the Rockies, skiing ‘powder’, was so much more fun than skiing in the east…or even the Alps of Switzerland or France. Her skis dove into the powder with a soft shussing sound. Felt the explosion bursting through snow banks. Then there was the speed downhill, traversing broad fields, jumps to the next ledge and long looping runs. The bowls of the Rockies were above the tree line, so the rock formations created jumps and bumps. Aspen was the best… And then long runs down to the trails at the trees and on… traversing the trails. Shifting weight, adjusting feet and knees, gliding over ice fields. Aspen had challenging trails for everyone, all skill levels. Her favorite place. This is Annie, loving challenges and enjoying life. Annie grew up in her earliest years in Western Massachusetts; West Stockbridge, Pittsfield. Her mother and father had moved to the U. S. from France, having suffered greatly during the Second World War. Her parents had been married at the beginning of the war, and her dad was in the French Army. He was captured early in the German occupation and was a prisoner of war for nearly five years. During that ordeal her mom stayed in Paris and survived the bombings hiding in the shelters on a regular basis. In 1948, they moved to Pittsfield, MA. because one of their friends knew of a job. There were few opportunities for work in Europe. Scraping to get by, they found jobs in the Albany, New York area. Her dad settled in working as a florist. Annie learned both French and English at home. She continued her education at the College of St. Rose in Albany earning a B.S. in Education and completing her Master’s Degree in Reading at the State University of New York at Albany. Annie taught various levels at the elementary schools of the Shenendehowa District and switched to teaching history at the middle school for the last 5 years of her 35 in the district.. During those years she participated in a State Department school exchange with a sister school in Nouakchott, Mauritania in northwest Africa. But her love was still skiing in the high mountains. Active with her local skiing club, She planned weekly ski trips to nearby Vermont mountains, trips to Canada, three or four weekends in the Rockies; Aspen, Steamboat, Vail. And usually one trip per year to France or Switzerland. She enjoyed the camaraderie of her friends and organizing weekend trips, and soon became President of the group. She spent much time in the mountains. She was able to take a year’s leave of absence from her job so she to moved to Colorado. Working on Snowmass and qualifying for ski patrol made her year there unforgettable . She thought this would be her dream fulfilled, but after a season in Aspen, she returned to her teaching in Albany, her real love. (and the job that paid the bills, she said) She met Prentice through the ski club, and they were married in 1988. They both loved skiing and traveling. And she expanded her love of cooking, especially French cuisine. Her mother was a good cook, and she followed her footsteps. She loves baking and entertaining. Their travels took them to France, Italy, Russia, and to their favorite place; on safari in Africa.

  • 2013-2014 Legislative Scorecard
    Legislative Scorecard Votes and Leadership 2013-14 LEGISLATIVE SESSION - 1 - This is the inaugural edition of the Environmental League of Massachusetts legislative scorecard. We produced this scorecard to inform citizens about how their legislators voted on important environmental issues. We are pleased and grateful for the support of so many environmental leaders in the legislature. The scorecard relies first on roll call votes on legislation that deals with environmental and energy issues. Because there are so few roll call votes each session—and often these votes are unanimous—we have scored additional actions by legislators to further distinguish environmental champions. Bonus points were awarded to legislators who introduced bills that were ELM priorities or who introduced important amendments, particularly budget amendments to increase funding for state environmental agencies. In addition, we subtracted points for legislators who introduced legislation or amendments that we opposed. We want to recognize leadership and courage, in addition to votes, and have made every attempt to be fair and transparent in our scoring. Much happens during the legislative process that is impractical to score such as committee redrafts, committee votes to move or hold a bill, and measures that would improve flawed legislation. We have not attempted to include these actions, but we recognize that they greatly influence the process and outcomes. None of the bills or amendments scored here should be a surprise to legislators in terms of ELM’s support or opposition. Going forward, ELM will include votes and other actions that support additional revenues for transportation and promote transit, walking and biking. George Bachrach, President Erica Mattison, Legislative Director Highlights of the Session projects.

    Miguel Hermoso Cuesta (CC BY-SA 4.0) 2017-18 LEGISLATIVE SCORECARD MASSPIRG is a consumer group that stands up to powerful interests whenever they threaten our health and safety, our financial security, or our right to fully participate in our democratic society. We have compiled this legislative scorecard as a tool to educate Massachusetts residents about the voting records of their elected officials. 294 Washington St, Suite 500, Boston MA 02108 • 617-292-4800 • www.masspirg.org From the Executive Director Page 2 Athel Rogers When consumers are cheated, when our public health is threatened, or powerful interests have more say than ordinary people, our job is to stand up for the public interest. We’re funded by thousands of supporters, from across the political spectrum, which allows us to be independent and to focus on doing what’s best for the public. This scorecard grades legislators from the 2017-2018 legislative session on a selection of public interest issues: protecting consumers, improving voter access to the ballot, investing in public transportation, promoting government transparency, increasing renewable energy, protecting bees, and reducing solid waste among others. A few achievements I’d like to flag: After several years, working MASSPIRG’s Legislative Director Deirdre Cummings speaking at a State House press conference on the in a strong coalition with the League of Women Voters/MA, Security Breach Bill. She is joined by bill sponsors Common Cause MA, the Mass. Voter Table and others, we finally Representative Randy Hunt (R-Sandwich) and Senator got Automatic Voter Registration (the late Rep.
