Cairn, the new point and click puzzle adventure by Aaron Price, takes place in a land that is cursed. For centuries, countless have tried to explore it. To discover its secrets. None have returned. Some claim it's coincidence. Others say something keeps them from leaving, but you've never been one to take them at their word... The intro goes on like this for a while, but let's speed ahead to the point: You're in a meadow. It's eerie. There are puzzles. Get to it, dude.

Fortunately we have games like Room 9 to fall back on, secure in the knowledge that the escaping fun will be logical, amusing, and flow easily from one challenge to the next.

Robots. The bane of our existence! It's time to get rid of those immobile, block-like things that do nothing but sit there, mocking us with their smug, yellow-eyed looks of supremacy! In the unassuming little puzzle game Pusher, you play a little guy who takes hairstyling tips from The Beatles and has the power to rid the world of robots, one sliding block at a time!
Mr. Runner looks so sleek, there's no reason why he shouldn't run quickly. You have three worlds with over a dozen levels each in which to jump, slide, float through the air and die and die and die. Whether you're searching for the five chests hidden in each world or racing to the finish to unlock the next level, you're bound to have 'a few' deaths while figuring out how to get to the end.
Muse Quest is an entry in the Project Eden Music Game Contest that combines platforming elements with unique musical gameplay.

It's a zombie railshooter cheese-stravaganza in Xplored's fast-paced first-person shooter starring Joe, the guy with a machine gun for a hand, and scores of squishy zombies just waiting to be burst.

Ready for some brawling? Superfighters from MythoLogic Interactive is a single-screen single-player or 2-player versus fighting game replete with weapons, tactical maneuvers, and chunky pixel art your eyes will adore. It's a game where little dudes shoot, stab, burn, kick, shoot (again) and trick each other until they pass out from non-livingness, and once that round is over, you get to do it all over again!
Kingdom Rush has itty-bitty visuals but an ogre's worth of style and strategy. In this fantastic tower defense game, protect your kingdom's roads and countrysides against incoming hordes of goblins, bandits, wulves, and other nasties. Build towers, upgrade your army in and out of battle, take on challenges, and enjoy all the POW SOK SHUNT battling you can handle while you're at it.
Twenty years after nuclear confrontation wiped out the planet known as Earth, Cosmonaut Laika receives a distress bark from the ruined surface. Armed with your trusty swap-gun, a rainbow shooting device that lets you switch places with pieces of the world around you, you land upon the planet to locate your companions. Every dog has its day, and today is the day you... Escape from the Puppy Death Factory! Brought to you by Arthur Lee and the fine people at Adult Swim. A fun, if deceptively challenging, puzzle platformer.
Cat God vs. Sun King is an interesting volley into the defense genre: the enemy is sending waves upon waves in an attempt to build a tower, and you're purely and simply trying to destroy them all. Plus you're a cute little cat. The more you use abilities, the cheaper, quicker and more powerful they will get, up to a max of three levels per skill. Once you kill every enemy, you win the level.
Nitrome's destructive physics puzzle goes overseas in this follow up to 2010's hit Rubble Trouble! With giant mechanical laser lizards, air strikes, grabbing choppas and more at your disposal, you should be able to meet your monetary goal quicker than ever and satisfy your boss. But can you keep your workers and the surrounding civilians safe without endangering your bottom dollar?
We get you. You're too cool for regular platformers, right? They're so boring. So easy. Then why don't you bring your swagger on over to this tricky puzzle platformer and help one cool cat reach his goal. Can you make it to the exit? How about while only moving left? Without jumping? Within a time limit? You'll need quick reflexes, a cool head, and a dose of patience to proceed.
Blipzkrieg is a graphically simple but tactically rich real-time strategy game. In it, you command a blue circle and troops of yellow circles versus hordes of gray squares and their forces. Can you reach the portal on each level by overcoming the enemy? The game features 29 progressively-difficult stages and straight-forward mouse control.
These monsters aren't monstrous at all! Look how soft and trusting they are, how they make innocent eye contact with you as if to say, "Please don't electrocute me and all my friends and family!" Too bad that's the aim of the game in this negative space puzzler that has loads of charm and black humour, not to mention style, to carry you through the day.
When a car accident on a lonely road strands you on the outskirts on thriving metropolis Union City all you can think about is getting home to your significant other. You quickly discover, unfortunately, that the metropolis isn't so thriving after all, but is is practically heaving with zombies. Will you be able to survive the outbreak and find your beloved? Scavenge for food, weapons, ammunition, and more while trying to stave off endless hordes of flesh-hungry monsters in this enormous side-scrolling action RPG.
There's barely any faulting the Conceptis Light series of games, and Dot-a-Pix is consistent with their light, fun and diversional qualities. Whether you call it connect-the-dots or dot-to-dot, Dot-a-Pix Light is what it sounds; light, logical and fun. So put away the pens and paper and enjoy a trip down the lane where your inner child plays.
Escape from the Restroom is a pretty easy game, befitting something that is there to amuse a restaurant patron for a few minutes while awaiting a dinner guest. The puzzles are fun and challenging but not overly difficult, creating a nice, light, easy escape to whet your appetite and leave you wanting more.
Don't you just hate when you wake up and find out that the sun is exploding? Yeah, me too. What with the shock waves of the supernova and the imminent threat of incineration, it just about ruins your whole day. Then you have to pack up everything into the family rocket ship and blast from world to world in your solar system, and because of the ever-approaching wall of flame, there's no time for sight-seeing. All you can do is try to stay one step ahead of the heat-death. Such is the premise of Run from the Sun, by FreakyZoid. And considering the title, it's kind of ironic that it's a game you'll want to run towards as quickly as possible.

Rising juniors shed their skin and become seniors as the new school year begins.
Each year a new cast of characters take the stage, largely unknown. They have nine months to win the hearts of Berkeley, Cross, Timberland and St. Johns Christian Academy sports fans.
Who are these new seniors?
Who are the top impact players to watch this fall? Who are these unknowns that will become household names by playoff time in November?
In 2009, Bruce Ellington took the field for the Berkeley Stags, a player that had yet to prove himself completely on the field. Elington was a player that Coach Jerry Brown said, could be all he could be if he lived up to his potential.
By May of 2010, the Ellington legend had been cemented in the hearts and minds of Stags fans everywhere when he led Berkeley to the 2009 Class AAAA Div. II state title.
Who will be this years Bruce Ellington?
Alex Taylor, OL: So far this spring and summer Taylor has drawn interest from colleges and he hasnt played a down.
The attention comes from Taylors 6-9 frame, and like Ellington, his untested potential.
Joseph Dress, QB: A three-year starter at quarterback for the Stags, Dress has grown into the position, according to Coach Jeff Cruce.
Joseph has matured at the quarterback position, Cruce said. He has a strong and accurate arm and knows where his receivers are. On top of that hes smart, both in the classroom and with the playbook.
Joseph is the leader of our offense on the field and off.
Dress opted out of playing baseball this spring so he could focus on football. College coaches will get a good look at the quarterback this fall.
Vance Bailey, K: The Stags placekicker competes in four varsity sports. The senior kicker is accurate from 40-yards and also be one of the Stags top cross country runners.
In spring Bailey also plays soccer and runs track.
Wyatt Craig, TE/DE: The senior tight end last week secured his football future for the next four years by committing to Newberry College. Getting the college reruitment process out of the way is a load off Wyatt Craigs mind. Now he can concentrate on football and capping his stellar scholastic career with another possible trip to the state championship game after Thanksgiving.
Craig anchors the defensive line as well at defensive end. Standing 6-3 and at 200-plus pounds Craig is 100-percent healthy after missing much of last season with a broken collarbone.
Johnell Brown, TE/DE, Timberland: The opposite bookend to Wyatt Craig on the defensive line, Johnell Brown plays older than his years. Championships are won on defense and much of Timberlands hopes for 2014 rest on Browns shoulders.
Ryan Hood, QB: In his senior season, Ryan Hood has been charged with directing the Wolves offense this fall. Hood began 2013 as the starting quarterback but was moved to wide receiver following Timberlands loss to Berkeley.
Hood has shown arm strength and accuracy in summer passing camps and Coach Art Craig has had Hoods name penciled in the top slot since spring practice.
Yes, there is a competition for the position, but Ryan has shown hes the man back there, Craig said. Hes smart, sees his reads and has a good arm in the pocket.
Shamel Williams, RB/DB: Wolves football fans have been hearing Shamel Bolt Williams for the past three years: Touchdown! Bolt Williams!
Bolts football career at Timberland reaches its zenith this fall and much of the Wolves good fortune will come from the touchdowns Williams scores on the football field this fall.
If Timberland is to beat Dillon in November they will need Williams on offense and defense.
Jamarial Pringle, RB/DB: The Cross Trojans are two years removed from a 2012 state championship and a brand new set of faces emerge to lead the Trojans this fall.
So far this summer, the impact player to watch from Cross has been running back Jamarial Pringle.
Coaches have been asking for film on him, said CHS Coach Shaun Wright. He has been steady all summer, a model kid, 6-1, 190 pounds. He will step up and provide the senior leadership we need.
Malcolm Garrett, OL/DL: Just a junior, Malcolm Garrett anchors the Cross offensive and defensive lines. With such a young team, Wright will be relying heavily on the two-year starters leadership in the trenches. It will be Garrett that opens the holes of Jamarial Pringle this fall.
St. Johns Christian Academy
Playing SCISA 8-Man football the Cavaliers usher in a new era under head coach John McCall.
McCall said a key cog in the Cavalier offense this fall will be Tyler Rose.
He can run the football, Mc Call said. Tyler will see a lot of action in the backfield.
Other top returning players from the 2013 team that went 3-7 include Dustin Parsons, Josh Carter, Byron Rogers, Luke Hutto and Robby ODell.

It's nice to see the smaller, lesser-known tv shows like this getting a chance. HBO may have a hit on their hands. Too early to tell though.
Similar to that young up and comer, Robert, Downey Jr, is it? He's got some Metal Guy movie, it looks like it could be good too.
I so thoroughly enjoy these tiny, independant budget efforts :)

Qaridarium's posts have a point, they're just written ridiculously bad and overreacting, you have to get used to it to understand what he's saying. Also, I think members like Jade (remember him?) were much worse with what was it - attacking jews? Or something like that.
I voted against a ban.

Future CEO
For me, I was inspired to sell boxes of Girl Scout Cookies from all of the contagious enthusiasm. In previous years, I have continually seen people completely in LOVE with Girl Scout Cookies. One college kid who saw our site sale booth jumped three feet in the air and said "YES! I have been looking for these for two weeks! Finally!" He brightened my day, making it all seem worthwhile. Another instance of the Cookie Lovers was the man who bought a box of Tagalongs from me then proceeded into the grocery store that I was outside of. Not more than ten minutes later, he came back to me saying, "Excuse me, I need to buy some more. I ran out already!" I have racked up countless stories like these that puts a smile on my face.
Talking to people seems like a natural human ability, but to some people like me, I need a purpose to become more comfortable to banter with people whom I do not know. Talking to the people about their day and which cookies they liked really improved the way I talk with people. I enjoyed learning and was actually fascinated by some of the things people said about their lives. One man bought five boxes of Thin Mints for the bear at the nature preserve where he worked! Turns out it was the bear's favorite food!
Additionally, it may seem kind of funny to consider customers as heroes. I remember one lady with the most incredibly spontaneous act of kindness that I have ever witnessed. The best moment of my site sales was when a woman came up to me and bought 10 boxes of Girl Scout Cookies, generous in itself. Then, she promptly turned around and said to the senior citizen walking past her, "Sir, I bought too many Girl Scout Cookies. Would you like a few?" and promptly handed him a few Thin Mint boxes. As the man graciously accepted, I was speechless by her generosity but my face was lit with joy. My mom did stop this customer hero to acknowledge and applaud her act of kindness since we wanted to let her know that she made cookie selling a truly special experience.
To be successful in cookie selling, I had to learn some marketing and strategy skills. These skills included determining which locations were prime on which day and what time of the day. I had to learn how to present myself and cookies to get seen at a busy location but not be annoying. And I had to plan how many cookies I needed each selling day and which kinds. The most important lesson I've learned is that having what the customer wants is key to maximizing sales. If I were to own a business or be a part of one someday, I have a strong base of useful experiences from selling Girl Scout Cookies to be more likely successful.
I have to admit that while I love the many skills that the Cookie Program bestows on me, I do always look forward to the prizes every year. This year, the council tried a new cookie reward of being a CEO for a day for the Top 5 Cookie Sellers. Having been lucky enough to be chosen, I was honored to spend an entire work day with the Chicago staff in what will be an experience I will remember for a lifetime. I will always be appreciative of the creative opportunities and activities that could only have been dreamt up by the most dedicated and nicest people. Each staff member was amazing to meet and is sincere about bettering girls. And I can see that our council cares about making a difference for girls in the world, myself included. This cookie reward (CEO for a Day) is definitely worth selling extra cookies.
I love selling cookies. I truly believe that the Girl Scout Cookie Program has made me a "smarter cookie" in many ways.
Samantha, Girl Scout Cadette, 2,446 boxes sold

I already started purchasing parts, but have not started the install yet, and I want to make sure I do this right the first time.
I have a well that produces 15GPM+ and the PSI settings are 50 to 60, when the pump is running, and I'm using 15GPM its pretty steady at 58 PSI on the well tank, there is a 1.25" pipe ran from the well to my house plumbing and it T's off a 1" to all my house items, the other end of this T will be for the irrigation system.
Here is my plan so far, please let me know if anything is wrong, or you have better suggestions...
A) I want to install a 100-PESB for my mater valve, along with a Flow-Clik for added protection, these will be in the basement.
B) I plan on installing 2, in-ground valve boxes, one on each end of the house, each one will have a Febco 860 RPZ inside the box, along with 1" manifolds and 4x 1" HV valves.
C) I plan on using 1" poly for all underground sprinkler piping.
D) I plan on using R-van/P45 combos for all the sprinklers.
Now my questions:
1) Is it ok to install the RPZ's inside the in-ground boxes? Or would it be better in the basement? I heard they can spray water during normal operation?
2) Is it ok to run 1" pipe to my master valve? or should I run 1.25" (size supplied from well) and get a 1.5" master valve with reducers, is the master valve ok in the basement?
3) I have charts for the R-Van nozzles, and using the GPM at 45PSI what is the maximum GPM you recommend that I try and use?
4) Since I live in Wisconsin, I'd like to make this system self draining, how many drains should I put in each run? I also plan on blowing it out each season. What depth should I bury this at?
5) Since I have a well, there is some sand in the water, but right next to the well I installed a whole house 30 micron sediment filter, and I have never noticed any sand in my house water, but the filter definitely has a lot of sand in it when I replace it, do I need any additional filtering?

iHerb Customer Reviews
I like this brand of essential oils. There smells are always very rich and true to form. This lavender has a very woodsy smell. I'm not a fan of lavender to begin with but it does wonders for my skin when I drop a few drops into my face wash every day. I had been using Now Lavender but the smell was just so odd so I'd thought I'd try this. I'm still not a fan of the smell but this one has a very subtle, rich smell which is nice.
Loved that for the cost, this smells great. Comes out well, and lasts a long time. Very pleased.

May 16, 2012The visual are top notch but Tim Burton never finds a consistent rhythm, mixing campy jokes and gothic spookiness. Dark Shadows suffering imbalance and ridiculous script and all A-list star here couldn't help much. Despite its intriguing trailer, Dark Shadows turn to be dead and boring entertainment.
May 13, 2012The movie is NOT a comedy. All the "funny" parts are in the trailer. I'm not even sure what genre it belongs in as it isn't scary either. Just kind of a dumb high budget B film you'd expect to see straight to dvd these days.
Jul 3, 2012I can't find the Old Burton in this movie. Maybe he is changing his style, I don't know, but I don't like it. I have to admit the mixed all styles: vampire, retro, gothic it's well done...but no more. I am really tired to see Depp doing the same "Jack faces" over and over again. If Burton are producing and directing "kids stuff" is time he public that new, 'cos this movie.... isn't Burtons style.
May 15, 2012The trailers made this movie look like it was going to be funny and entertaining, I'm a huge Helena Bonham Carter, Johnny Depp, and Tim Burton fan, but this movie was bad. There were funny parts but overall a bad film. There was no character development and the story was all over the place. There were way too many flaws in the story for me to be able to like it.

May 13, 2012
May 13, 2012What a piece of crud. This movie sucked (pardon the pun) almost as much as the Twilight films. Someone please make Burton and Depp from making movies together. A TV show with over 1,000 episodes that ran for years cannot be made into a condensed two hour movie. Don't waist your time. Go see Avengers again, like many people did.

Nov 18, 2012I expect Dark Shadows to be a funny loosely based comedy and what i got was a movie that lacks everything creative. very dull which isn't characteristic of tim burton. Visually okay, acting below par.
May 18, 2012Unless you are a fan of Johnny Depp and/or Michelle Pfeiffer, Eva Green, Helena Bonham Carter and/or Tim Burton you will have a hard time sitting through this almost 2 hour film of â

May 20, 2012Stole 2 hours from my life, a huge letdown. Started semi-promising but towards the end I found myself scratching the arm of my chair, I was bored, couldn't wait the movie to end. The final "battle" was absolutely chaotic and shallow. Burton seems to get to the end of dark, humorous,charcters with an English accent and elegance to put Depp in...
Dec 11, 2012
Aug 7, 2012No, just no. This was the only movie i have ever walked out of. The story was bland, the acting was terrible, and it was just another copy of a vampire movie, it had the same jokes as all of the other ones, and i was very dissappointed in Tim Burton. Bad is the only word I have for this movie.
Aug 28, 2012Dark Shadows is yet another ladder rung into the descent of disapointment that has become Tim Burtons career. The only thing this film is good for is a possible attraction at a theme park.
May 23, 2012Besides the fact that the movie deserved to be rated R, the movie overall was just not very appealing to anyone. I laughed at some points, but not too much. The acting was great by Depp, but this movie is not exactly worth seeing.
Aug 30, 2012
May 22, 2012This seemed cobbled together from the worst cliches of plot, characterization, and art direction. Nothing original from the first frame to the last. And the ending suggesting a sequel to come is the scariest thing in the movie.
Nov 2, 2012It's very cheesy, with almost zero likable characters (like most hollywood films lately). During the first half maybe, I thought I could get into it as it started to take on a comedic style and worked pretty well. The second half however was a downhill tumble into some of the most retarded crap I've ever seen.
Jun 3, 2012
Jun 12, 2012For lovers of Johnny Depp and Tim Burton movies, I'd suggest you stay far away from this movie. It's childish humor and terrible story line will leave you feeling so very disappointed. I suggest going back and watching some good old Sweeney Todd.
Jun 17, 2012
Aug 13, 2012
Jan 1, 2014Johnny Depp is acceptable in his role and is the only saving grace for Dark Shadows as the rest of the film is generally uninteresting, boring and unsatisfying. A miss for Depp and Burton.
Nov 10, 2012
Mar 17, 2013Another movie that Tim Burton chose to go with his style over the substance of a good movie. I understand that these talented actors had to act a certain way for this movie, but the acting made this movie even more boring.
Mar 27, 2013
Mar 29, 2013It wasn't terrible, I guess. This movie was slow and I felt like I was missing some important information about the back story. I also felt this movie was represented as more of a comedy when it wasn't. One thing I did enjoy was Johnny Depp's lines. I liked how they kept him proper. In all, this movie is very forgettable and I won't remember most of it in the morning.
Jun 17, 2013I was expecting more to be honest Tim Burton disappointed me this time and Johnny was okay for a role that was made for him .
Michelle Pfeiffer was a disappointment too i was thinking that she'll make a great comeback but obviously the role was passable
The best in show was obviously Eva Green what a great turn -
Jan 20, 2014A pointlessly gloomy film with none of the satirical appeal of its source material. Here we again find Johnny Depp playing a misunderstood character who unfortunately is not supported by an interesting cast.
Dec 19, 2013This review contains spoilers, click expand to view.
Along with Guillermo del Toro and Peter Jackson, Burton is one of the few magi who know what can be dredged up, even now, from the cauldron of special effects. [21 May 2012, p.80]
The screenplay by Seth Grahame-Smith is witless and meandering, though the witlessness wouldn't matter so much if it moved, or the meandering if it were droll.
The film is best when it focuses on Barnabas's culture shocks in this brave new world. Depp has fun with the character's bafflements without camping it up. What's missing overall is the sense of fun Burton once evinced in films like "Beetlejuice."

Sanchez returns to mound against Twins
Righty missed one start with injury; Deduno seeks third victory
Right-hander Anibal Sanchez has to be happy to be back on the mound. Not only will it be his first start since being scratched last week due to muscle stiffness in his upper back near his throwing shoulder, but he'll also face the Twins, who he's had plenty of success against this year.
Sanchez will go up against right-hander Samuel Deduno after the Tigers' 4-0 win Friday. In three starts against Minnesota, Sanchez has a 1.35 ERA with 26 strikeouts in 20 innings. He also looks to continue the streak of 14 consecutive quality starts by Tigers starting pitchers, including 19 of their last 20 outings.
However, the team's strong pitching has caused some relievers to get inconsistent work out of the bullpen.
"What's hard is getting some those guys in a flow right now, because our starters are pitching so good," Leyland said. "Some of those guys haven't pitched in a long time. That's a good thing. You're not going to take the starters out with the way they've been pitching."
Despite strong numbers against the Twins, Sanchez only has one win, due to a lack of run support. If Friday's game was any clue, the Tigers can change that in an instant.
"That's about as good as anybody you'll see in our league with those middle guys [Miguel Cabrera and Prince Fielder]," Twins manager Ron Gardenhire said before Friday's game. "The key is keeping people off the base in front of Cabrera and those guys. But it's not always easy to do. They got their leadoff hitter back [Austin Jackson] and he's pretty good, too."
The Tigers proved how difficult it was in the sixth inning Friday. Jackson walked and Gardenhire elected to intentionally walk Cabrera. Fielder proceeded to hit a 2-RBI double. After Cabrera's last 21 walks, Fielder is hitting 12-for-19 (.632) with two walks, five doubles and 16 RBIs.
In his season-debut on May 24, the Tigers hit Deduno around for six runs in 5 1/3 innings in a 6-0 win. Since then, Deduno has recovered for a 1.50 ERA in 18 innings.
Twins: Plouffe returns from DL
Third baseman Trevor Plouffe, who had been on the 15-day disabled list with a strained calf retroactive to May 28, played in his fourth rehab game with Triple-A Rochester Friday and was activated by the Twins after Friday's game.
Plouffe started at third base for Rochester and batted third, going 2-for-5 with a strikeout and a fielding error.
• Outfielder Wilkin Ramirez has progressed to being able to practice baseball activities after suffering a concussion in a collision with teammate Josh Willingham on May 25. Twins general manager Terry Ryan said Ramirez, who is on the 7-day concussion disabled list, will head out on a rehab assignment once he feels good enough to play in a game.
• Former closer Eddie Guardado and former director of public relations Tom Mee were officially inducted into the Twins' Hall of Fame in a pregame ceremony before Friday's game. Guardado is the team's all-time leader in appearances with 648, registering 116 saves. Mee received the Robert O. Fischel award for Public Relations excellence in 1988 before retiring in 1991.
Tigers: Valverde still the closer
Despite recent struggles, manager Jim Leyland said he will stick with Jose Valverde as his closer.
"We're going to do the best we can," Leyland said. "We're going to use Jose Valverde until we decide Jose Valverde can or can't do it, or we've got somebody else better. That's what we're doing."
Hitters went 3-for-39 with zero home runs against Valverde in his first 12 outings, and are 10-for-29 with five home runs in his past seven, according to ESPN Stats and Information.
• With Austin Jackson returning to the lineup, the Tigers were forced to option outfielder Avisail Garcia to Triple-A Toledo.
"I could keep him up here and sit him on the bench," Leyland said. "That doesn't make much sense. This is a kid that needs to play. This is a kid that's got a high ceiling."
Garcia hit .288 and was on an eight-game hitting streak with the Tigers. During his 24-game stint in the Majors, he had a .455 slugging percentage with two home runs and 10 RBIs.
Worth noting
• Despite Sanchez's strong numbers against the Twins, Joe Mauer is hitting .417 in 12 at-bats against the right-hander.

Legislature set to elect new guard chief
MONTPELIER Three of the candidates seeking to become the next leader of the Vermont National Guard each have decades of military service. The fourth isnt a guard member and is running primarily to oppose the possibility the Air Force could station F-35s, the next generation fighter planes, at the Burlington International Airport.
The next adjutant general will be chosen Thursday by a joint session of the Legislature.
Lawmakers will cast secret ballots to elect the officer who will lead about 3,000 members of the Army Guard and 1,000 members of the Air National Guard.
The candidates are seeking to succeed Maj. Gen. Thomas Drew, who became interim adjutant general last summer after his predecessor left to become deputy commander of the United States Northern Command, which oversees North American defense. Drew did not seek re-election to the four-year post.
Like much of the U.S. military, the Vermont National Guard is winding down after more than a decade of war. Army and Air Guard members have served numerous overseas deployments, including many that involved sustained combat operations in Iraq and Afghanistan.
But the end of the wars presents its own set of challenges, including caring for the soldiers and airmen after their deployments.
Air Guard Brig. Gen. Steven Cray, of Essex Junction, a veteran F-16 pilot, said he feels the biggest issue facing the guard stems from the fiscal challenges facing the United States and Vermont.
Weve already seen that type of pressure from the Air Force being applied to the Air National Guard, and we expect the same to happen on the Army side in the next couple of years, he said after announcing his candidacy in December.
Guard Col. Darryl Ducharme, a veteran helicopter pilot and guard trainer who has also served in Iraq and Afghanistan, said Tuesday that deployments over the last decade have left up to 20 percent of Vermont guard members with medical conditions that would prevent them from being deployed again.
I think its critical that we get those folks back in a healthy, deployable status, Ducharme said.
Retired Army Guard Col. Michael Bullock has worked for the guard as a civilian for several years since retiring from uniformed service. He said he served in the Special Forces before joining the Vermont guard, where he was twice deployed to Afghanistan.
Hed like to change the culture of the guard to make it more open to new ideas.
Our resilience is our people and our ability to work together and come together and get our strength from our diversity, Bullock said.
James Marc Leas, a lawyer from South Burlington, is the non-guard candidate.
I think Vermont needs an adjutant general who will serve and protect Vermont with no responsibility to the chain of command in Washington, Leas said. He cited what he called unjust wars of aggression as indicative of the need for independent thinking at the state level.
But Leas biggest issue is the possibility the Air Force will station the next generation fighter plane, the F-35, at the Vermont Air National Guard. A decision from the Air Force on that issue is expected this spring.
Opponents of the F-35 plan in communities surrounding Burlington International Airport, where the planes would be based, argue they are much louder than the F-16s they would replace and would affect the quality of life of people who live near the airport.
Proponents say the planes arent as loud as critics maintain and would fly only for a few minutes a day a few days a week.MORE IN Vermont NewsMONTPELIER Vermont is a step closer toward meeting the goal of ensuring that everyone in the...
