NEWINGTON —Connecticut Electric Car ishoping to put a bolt into theChevy Volt.Connecticut Electric Car, a

new division within NewingtonElectric Co., will unveil two level2 electric car charging stationsat Blue Black Square in WestHartford Friday, July 22.The charging stations are a

new and growing trend inConnecticut as more and morestate residents plan on purchas-ing electric cars.As of this month, it is estimat-

ed that less than 300 Connecticutresidents drive a hybrid ChevyVolt, the only electric car on themarket in the state. The Voltruns on electric and gas. But theNissan Leaf, to be unveiled inthe state in October, runs onlyon electric.Upwardsof15,000Connecticut

residents are expected to be driv-ing electric cars by the end of2012,accordingtoBruceSmedick,site consultant for ConnecticutElectric Car. Nationally, around

15,000 electriccars have beensold, most on theWest Coast. And,President BarackObama has calledfor the country toput one millionelectric cars on theroad by 2015.“There is a tre-

mendous amountof interest in thesecars,” Smedick saidWednesday.“Peopleare concernedabout the environ-ment, the cost offuel and they aremore aware todayof issues related tofossil fuels.”The charging stations will be

located in Lexicon Garage inBlue Black Square, a facility forupscale residential and com-mercial tenants. It will not beavailable to the public.To charge a car, motorists need

only drive up to the chargingstation and plug in their electricvehicle. It takes about five hoursto completely charge a car at an

average cost of $2.Currently, drivers of the Volt

can charge their cars from astation in their home or froma few select places statewide.They can travel upwards of 50miles on electric. The stationsin West Hartford are necessary,according to Ed Ingalls, ownerof Connecticut Electric Car,because it gives motorists anoth-er option.

Ingalls said NewingtonElectric, which has been a main-stay in town for 50 years andemploys 18 people, saw a chanceto get into the popular marketand ran with it.“We are electrical contractors

and thought it would be a goodmarriage to open up an elec-tric car division,” said Ingalls,who noted his company onlydoes the installation and wiring

for the charging stations. Hedid say that his company hasbeen approached by a numberof business outlets, includingWestFarms Mall, Starbucks andDunkin’ Donuts, about installingcharging stations.Ingalls, who declined to dis-

cuss the company’s revenue, saidit costs around $1,400 to installand wire a residential chargingstation and about $2,500 perunit for a commercial chargingstation.Will Lorenz, senior property

manager at Blue Black Square,said Wednesday the shoppingand residential district saw inter-est among clients.“Tenants park underneath the

building and had expressed inter-est in this,” Lorenz said. “Weexpect this to be very popular.”As the electric car trend con-

tinues, Ingalls said the companyplans on working closely withGeneral Electric of Plainville,Northeast Utilities, as well asretailers and municipalities.For more information, call

Ingalls at (860) 667-1819 or goto the company’s website at www.ctelectriccar.com.

and cost-effective. It’s also avery diverse community which iswhat makes it strong.The homesare moderately-priced, it’s in agood location and we have qual-ity schools.”

His responsibilities

“Think of the town as a cor-poration, and theTown Manager asthe Chief OperatingOfficer,” Salomoneexplains with anoth-er analogy. “Thetown council is theBoard of Directorsand the citizens arethe stockholders,because they eachown their own por-tion of the town, orthe business. Oursituation is goodfiscally, we’re still able to providethe services to the communi-ty that they enjoy, keep livingaffordable and quality services— we’re looking to keep theservices at the level the citizenshave become accustomed to.”Being Town Manager is a full-

time job, as Salomone has totend to human resources andfinancial obligations as well asday-to-day administration ofthe different departments in thetown office. “It’s very diverse —one day you’re worried aboutthe aftermath of a snowstormand the next you’re planningand zoning in a park; it’s about

trying to balance the needs ofa community with the ability tofund them.”

What’s on his mind

“We’re finishing the artificialturf field at Clem Lemire Park— it’s going to be one of the fewartificial turf athletic fields runby the town instead of the school

system,” describedSalomone. The newfield will be used forcommunity eventsand sports. “It’s justfascinating; there’sa lot of work thatgoes into it,” said anexcited Salomone.“We’re also look-

ing at how best wecan preserve signifi-cant parts of CedarMountain, but howit may be utilized as

well. There’s got to be a balanceon that.”

John Salomone: the man

Salomone spent the first 20years of his life in Long Island,N.Y., and grew up in a townknown as Franklin Square. Hedipped his feet in town govern-ment very early on, majoring inpolitical science and sociology atHofstra University in New York.He then went on to receive aMaster’s degree in public admin-istrationat theRockefellerSchoolof Government in Albany, whichis now known as NYU’s Graduate

School of Public Affairs. Hisfirst job after college was in St.Petersburg, Fla., but after real-izing he missed the change ofseasons he returned in 1977 andhas been here ever since.Newington isn’t the first place

he has served as Town Manager,either. His ties to the positiongo back 20 years. The towns ofAuburn, N.Y., Cheshire, Conn.,and Watertown, Conn., havealso benefited from Salomone’sleadership.

He and his wife have beentogether since college, and arecelebrating 38 years of marriagethis year. Their two children areno longer that — they are in col-lege and graduate school.So what does he do for fun?

“I love to golf,” he exclaimed.“I’m a member of Indian HillCountry Club, which is uniquebecause it’s owned by the town,”This is true: Salomone is a mem-ber himself, but all Newingtonseniors ages 62 and over play

free on Monday with the pur-chase of a Resident’s Card andtown residents are reserved teetimes on Sunday, Monday andTuesday. Salomone also loves toread e-books, spend time withfamily, and can grill anythingfrom fish to meat, to vegetables.“I also like to watch sports,”

Salomone continues. “There’sone whole wall in my office withsports stuff on it. I’m a Yankeesfan, but my right-hand peopleare all Red Sox fans,” he laughs.

BERLIN — The 43dInfantry Division VeteransAssociation will hold its 65thAnnual Reunion on the week-end of Aug. 12 tp 14 in RockyHill.

The major goal for this year’sreunion is to have a monu-ment erected in dedication tothis amazing group of soldierswho performed untold deeds ofvalor and heroism in the past.Descendant units are still onthe front lines in combat today.

“When the subject of WWIIand the Pacific Theatre comesup, most people have heardabout Pearl Harbor, Midway,and Iwo Jima. But few trulyknow about soldiers from herein Connecticut slugging it outin the thick jungles in the SouthPacific, enduring hand to handcombat against the Japanese inunfamiliar places like Munda,Aitape and Luzon,” said DavidThiede, National Secretary/Treasurer of the veterans asso-ciation. “A monument would bea most fitting tribute to thesemen who never sought heroismbut gave a tremendous amountof brave service to our nation.”

At present, Connecticutis the only state of the four(Maine, Rhode Island andVermont) that has no 43dDivision memorial monument.Many primary units of the 43dInfantry Division were fromConnecticut, including the 43dHeadquarters and MilitaryPolice from Hartford, the169th Infantry Regiment, the102d Infantry Regiment, the192d Field Artillery Regimentand many others.

With help of families of the43d Infantry Division veterans

and local veteran’s organiza-tions, an amount of $16,000 hasbeen raised to date for the mon-ument. But a remaining $8,000is needed to finish the memorialbrick walk. (The date for thefinal delivery of the monumentis late September 2011.)

The monument dedicatedto the 43d will be erected atthe State Veterans Cemetery inMiddletown, on Bow Lane. Amemorial brick donation pro-gram is underway to help raisefunds for a monument. For moreinformation about how to donateto this memorial monument,please visit http://www.43rd-idm.org.

About the 43dInfantry Division

The 43d Infantry Divisionwas inducted into federal servicein February, 1941 comprisingNational Guard units from

Connecticut, Maine, RhodeIsland and Vermont.The divisionparticipated in four campaigns:Guadalcanal, NorthernSolomons, New Guinea andLuzon.

It is also the only divisionto serve in all theatres of thePacific Campaign: SouthPacific, Southwest Pacific andthe Philippines.

In 1950, the Division wasonce again federalized dur-ing the Korean War and wasdeployed to Germany to jointhe NATO forces in WesternEurope.

SPECIAL TO THE NEWINGTON TOWN CRIER

The Newington Mustangs arewinding down the season and werelooking to get back to a .500 recordon Tuesday, July 19 at LegendsField against Cromwell.Coming off a tough late inning

loss to Lebanon Lighting Saturday,July 16, theMustangs needed a winto position themselves in a goodplace for the upcoming playoffs.With five games left there wasn’t

much time left so a win on thisnight would help.Cromwell came in as a minor

underdog but beat up on theMustangs the last time they playedso, not only was there standingsimportance in the game, but also arevenge factor as well.Mike “Gio”Giordano started for

the Mustangs and looked to equalhis no-hit performance in the sea-son opener against Cromwell.His hopes were squashed almost

immediately in the first when heallowed a walk, three hits and arun, but he struck out the next 2batters to end the inning.The Mustangs answered right

back when Sean Harrison singled,“Gio” was hit by a pitch and MikeGwiazdowski drove in Harrisonwith a fielder’s choice to tie it atone.Giordano settled down and over

the next 4 innings he struck out8 more batters, walked 5, allowedonly 2 more hits and no runs. “Giothrew a lot of pitches tonight butworked his pitches well with Dan(Lococo) behind the plate andshut Cromwell down when he hadto,” said Manager Ron Manzione.The offense awoke for the

Mustangs in the second, stakingGiordano to a growing and even-tual comfortable lead.

Andrew Gotowala started it offwith a beautiful 2 out bunt for a hitand after Jonah Sanchez reachedon an error, Dan Lococo crackeda booming double to deep centerplating both runners.Harrison walked and after a

stolen base, “Gio” singled up themiddle scoring two more runs.After a stolen base he scored on

a single by Phil Cocce and the leadwas 6-1 after two.In the third, Mike Snyder start-

ed it off with a triple to deep rightand scored on a line single byTrevor Colossa.In the fourth, “Gio” reached on

a walk, went to third on a wildpitch and an error and scored ona fielder’s choice grounder up themiddle by Gwiazdowski.The Mustangs finished their

scoring in the 6th when JaredClegg drove in Nick Aconforafrom third on a groundout.Phil Cocce came in to relieve

Giordano in the 6th and allowedan unearned run, getting the finalout at home on an attempted steal,making a nice lunging tag to sealthe victory.The win evens up the Mustangs’

record at 6-6 with 3 more gamesremaining in the regular season. “Iwas happy with the offense today.“Gio” helped himself with some

clutch hitting and great baserun-ning and the rest of the teamseemed to follow that lead,” saidManzione.“We were pretty efficient with

our 10 hits and 9 RBIs today. Ihope we can continue this to theplayoffs”, he added. Next up forthe Mustangs is Glastonbury atLegends Field on Wednesday, July20.

and backpacks are to blame. Ormore specifically, the improper useof backpacks.“The average child carries a

backpack that would be the equiv-alent of a 39-pound burden for a176-pound man, or a 29-poundload for a 132-pound woman,”says Dr. Rick McMichael, presi-dent of the American ChiropracticAssociation (ACA). “Growingchildren should only be carrying10 to 20 percent of their bodyweight.”Heavy backpacks can negatively

affect your child’s health by pull-ing on ligaments and muscles thatcause neck and back pain and can

possibly cause deformity of thespine, according to the ACA.Parents who want to protect

their children from these painfulinjuries can follow these tips:• Choose a backpack with

wide, padded shoulder straps anda padded back. They should beadjustable so the backpack can befitted to your child’s body. Strapsthat are too loose can cause thebackpack to dangle uncomfortablyand cause spinal misalignment andpain.• Encourage your child to use

both straps. Lugging the backpackaround by one strap can cause adisproportionate shift of weight toone side, leading to neck and backspasms.• Pack light or at least smart.

A backpack with individualizedcompartments helps in position-ing the contents most effectively,

keeping pointy objects away fromthe back.• Check to see if your children’s

textbooks are available on e-readers— it’ll save their backs, as well aspaper.Or consider buying a secondset of textbooks for your student tokeep at home, perhaps used ones.• Learn some back-strengthen-

ing exercises to build up muscles.Sit-ups are great since strongabdominal muscles can share theload and take the strain off backmuscles.• Encourage your child or teen-

ager to tell you about any pain ordiscomfort he or she may experi-ence. Do not ignore any back painin children or teenagers simplybecause they seem too young.If you or your child experiences

any pain or discomfort resultingfrom backpack use, call your doc-tor of chiropractic, who is licensed

and trained to diagnose andtreat patients of all ages. In addi-tion, doctors of chiropractic canalso prescribe exercises designedto help children develop strongmuscles, along with instruction ingood nutrition, posture and sleep-ing habits.You can find more backpack

safety tips and learn about treat-ment for back pain at www.acatoday.org/patients.And lastly, examine your own

backpacks, handbags and diaperbags. Parents are as likely to suf-fer back pain from excess weightor improper carrying as are theirchildren.

It’s almost back-to-school time, use backpacks properly
