Jim Douglas, former Vermont Governor, joins Kurt & Anthony to discuss The upcoming Veto session in Montpelier, and the current political environment.
On a cold winter day in 1984, three skiers pushed off from the Massachusetts border with an audacious plan to ski the length of Vermont. They named the 300-mile route the Catamount Trail. It is now the longest ski trail in North America.On Feb. 8, those same three skiers, Ben Rose, Paul Jarris, and Steve Bushey, who are each now in their 60s, will set off to once again ski the length of Vermont to mark the 40th anniversary of the Catamount Trail. They plan to ski all 31 sections of the trail in five weeks.The Catamount Trail was originally conceived by Steve Bushey, a geography major at the University of Vermont, and his high school friend Ben Rose, who had just graduated from Yale. They had recently biked across the country together and were searching for their next big adventure. Jarris, who had been Bushey's UVM classmate and regular outdoor partner, was a fourth-year medical student at the University of Pennsylvania. Bushey mapped out the ski trail as his masters geography thesis at Carleton University in Ottawa. Skiing it would provide proof of concept and be a grand adventure. But the trail was also about connecting people and building communities.After skiing the Catamount Trail in 1984, the three friends have gone on to have rewarding careers. Rose served as the first executive director of the nonprofit Catamount Trail Association, later went on to lead the Green Mountain Club, and is now the recovery and mitigation chief at the Vermont Department of Emergency Management. Jarris was a family doctor for 20 years and also served as Vermont's Commissioner of Health under Gov. Jim Douglas, then played a national role in public health. Bushey and his wife founded and run Map Adventures, which makes popular recreational maps and guides.Today, thousands of skiers use the Catamount Trail each winter, including Vermont school children who are introduced to skiing through the association's youth programs. “It's a trail for everybody,” said Matt Williams, executive director of the Catamount Trail Association.“This is a 40-year movement … to build backcountry trails and access throughout the length of Vermont to bring people into the state to enjoy that resource,” reflected Jarris. Climate change poses a threat to the future of the Catamount Trail. A study sponsored by the climate action group Protect Our Winters projects that the average number of days with snow cover in New England will decline by 50 to 75 percent in the coming decades, depending on greenhouse gas emissions. Rose said that the Catamount Trail and its association have “an important role to play as a canary in the coal mine, and as a group of people who refuse to give up on the value of winter, the possibility of winter, the future of winter.”Skiing the length of Vermont and seeing how the Catamount Trail has grown "made me an optimist for life," said Rose.

Ranging from New Orleans numbers through swing and Gerry Mulligan tunes, this group had a good ten year run. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/john-clark49/support
Several decades before Adolf Hitler and the Nazis took the notion of "purifying" society to genocidal extremes in the Holocaust, the ideas behind it were enthusiastically embraced in Vermont.Eugenics is the pseudoscience that humans can be improved through selective breeding. Many American states, including Vermont, used eugenics as the basis for public policies including family separation, institutionalization and sterilization. By 1936, over half of states practiced eugenical sterilization. In the 1920s and '30s, vulnerable Vermonters were targeted, institutionalized and otherwise separated from their families, and many were sterilized.Eugenics policies were “designed to break apart entire families and to basically get rid of them over several generations, whether that be segregating them in an institution, whether that be sterilizing them, whether that be inflicting so much trauma that the family no longer comes together,” said Mercedes de Guardiola, author of a new book published by the Vermont Historical Society, “Vermont for the Vermonters: The History of Eugenics in the Green Mountain State.” De Guardiola originally wrote the book as an undergraduate thesis at Dartmouth College, where she graduated in 2017 with a degree in history and art history.In 2021, the state of Vermont became one of the few states to formally apologize for the practice. De Guardiola testified about the eugenics movement before the Vermont Legislature in 2021.The University of Vermont apologized in 2019 for its role in the eugenics movement and removed the name of former UVM President Guy Bailey from its library for his role in promoting eugenics.Vermont's eugenics program became national news earlier this year when former Gov. Jim Douglas sued Middlebury College, his alma mater, for changing the name of Mead Memorial Chapel, which was named for John Abner Mead, Vermont's governor from 1910 to 1912. The college removed Mead's name in 2021, citing his “central role in advancing eugenics policies that resulted in harm to hundreds of Vermonters.”“In the cases of these unfortunates there is little or no hope of permanent recovery,” Mead said in his farewell speech in 1912. “And the great question that is now being considered by the lawmakers in many of our states is how best to restrain this defective class and how best to restrict the propagation of defective children.”Douglas insisted that Mead was a victim of “cancel culture.”De Guardiola said that Mead's role is emblematic of “participation at the highest level of government across several decades and a number of state officials, as well as private citizens (who) also (threw) their support in for eugenics.”De Guardiola declined to weigh in on whether Mead's name should be removed from the Middlebury chapel, saying simply, “His words speak for themselves.”“It's important to consider what their words were and what they resulted in,” de Guardiola said, adding that eugenics laws led to family separation and sterilization.

From cloud security providers to open source, trust has become a staple from which an organization's security is built. But with the rise of cloud-native technologies, the new ways of building applications are challenging the traditional approaches to security. The changing cloud-native landscape is requiring broader security coverage across the technology stack and more contextual awareness of the environment. So how should DevOps and InfoSec teams across commercial businesses and governments rethink their security approach? In this episode of The New Stack Makers podcast, Tom Bossert, president of Trinity Cyber (and former Homeland Security Advisor to two Presidents); Patrick Hylant, client executive of VMware; and Chenxi Wang, managing general partner, Rain Capital discuss how businesses and the U.S. government can adapt to the evolving threat landscape, including new initiatives and lessons that can be applied in this high-risk environment. Alex Williams, founder and publisher of The New Stack, hosted this podcast. Jim Douglas, CEO of Armory also joined as co-host of this livestream event.

Because you demanded it!! Disney's The Love Bug! This week on Fabulous Film and Friends we're following our discussion about the violent and gruesome Braveheart with the equally violent and twisted 1968 Disney gutbuster, The Love Bug and starring Dean Jones, Michelle Lee, Buddy Hackett, David Tomlinson and Sacramento's own Benson Fong. I'm joined by my good friend Gordon Alex Robertson today on this Superbowl weekend who would only do the show if we discussed this film, one of his childhood favorites. Before we hit the pedal to the medal:The synopsis. A deep, philosophical exploration of man's relationship to machine, beating Star Trek The Motion Picture to the punch by 10 years, The Love Bug tells the tale of Jim Douglas, a maverick race car driver on the cusp of middle age and relegated to demolition derbies who is given a second chance at life, love and happiness when he is randomly swindled into buying a living, thinking, self-driving 1963 VW Bug by the scheming Car Dealer cum throttle jockey Peter Thorndyke and his easy-on-the eyes sales assistant Carol Bennett. The scheme backfires for Thorndyke when Douglas and the VW, nicknamed Herbie by Jim's loyal roommate Tennessee Steinmetz, starts winning decisive contests at major raceways. Realizing the error of her ways and the duplicity of her horrible boss, Carol falls in with Jim and joins his team against Thorndyke who will stop at nothing to destroy Herbie. Is The Love Bug a forgettable late 60's Disney live action lark for kiddies? Or is it a more profound film than you'd expect?Find out!

The American political left in 2019 is a very different animal from the one that storied Vermont Republican politicians faced in the past. George Aiken, Jim Jeffords, Rickard Snelling, and Jim Douglas inhabited a dramatically different political landscape. So why do the Scott Troopers insist on resurrecting that obsolete brand? Why do they look backward and not forward for solutions to today’s problems? Why are they bent on renting a room in the house that Progressives built? This episode responds to the Troopers’ oft-repeated accusation that Vermont conservatives practice ideological purity and thus are myopic and intolerant.
There's no single reason for the $150 million the state has to pay each year, on average, until 2038. But the decision to ignore financial advice in the 1990s plays a major part. Guests: Sen.

Unfortunately, the penultimate episode of the Summer of Love Bug doesn't set us up to go out with a bang as one might have hoped. And we suppose that's to be expected - after all, we're in Disney television movie territory here. But there was always the hope that Bruce Campbell and Herbie would be a winning combination - but all for naught. Sure, Bruce's handsome face is here, but he's given little to no opportunities to show off his charisma - and neither is Herbie for that matter. The 1990's TV movie version of THE LOVE BUG is a drab and depressing affair; featuring a bonkers cast that absolutely fails to deliver, a Herbie that is a mere shadow of his lively and somewhat-homicidal past self, and that rat bastard Jim Douglas showing up acting like he never abandoned Herbie twice in the past. We've rounded the last corner and are in the final stretch, D-Lovers, let's hope the final entry can end things on a relative high.
Until recently, Wind River was a part of Intel. Now that Wind is an independent company (you knew that occurred, right?), what does the future hold and where will the industry powerhouse go?

President Trump recently described a plan to tackle the opioid abuse crisis that includes tougher sentencing on dealers and expanding access to treatment. The President's Commission on Combating Drug Addiction and the Opioid Crisis cites the need to move ahead quickly with treatment alternatives for those addicted to opioids. Yet, recent public surveys show that Americans are confused about opioid-treatment programs, with only about half believing there is an effective, long-term addiction treatment. There are programs offered for the treatment of opioid addiction, including medicated–assisted treatment, drug rehabilitation programs, addiction support groups, and counseling. This Forum – featuring the unique perspectives of former governors and the 21st United States Secretary of Health and Human Services — will examine the state government's role in current and future approaches to treatment. These approaches may include educating the public about these alternatives, paying for them, regulating their performance and availability, training and certifying health professionals in their use, and developing guidelines for certification of these treatments. This is the second in a series of Governors Roundtables. Part of The Andelot Series on Current Science Controversies, this Forum event was presented jointly with Reuters on Thursday, April 12, 2018.
