There's no brewing club in Plainfield yet [Ryan Christiansen] hopes to organize one - but he avers that he knows "10 or 15 people who brew" in the tiny town alone. "I was talking to other home brewers around here who were tired of spending money on gasoline when they could be spending money on brew supplies," he says.
The Agency of Agriculture is encouraging Vemtonters to snap up one of 51,000 local turkeys while they're still available. What makes a Green Mountain bird better? An Ag Agency press release cites the "tradition factor," the "buy local" effort and the "freshness and taste!" It waxes eloquent on our gobblers: "Due to the Vermont climate, turkeys grown here aie plumper than most, giving them a much better taste. They also require little, if any, basting.

Homeland Security Department officials are beefing up protection of specific overseas flights after the arrest of a London man linked to last year's terrorist plot to blow up planes over the U.S. and the discovery of 31 liquid bombs designed for such an attack.
More armed federal air marshals are guarding multiple flights out of Heathrow, Gatwick and Manchester airports since the discovery of the bombs in Lebanon was revealed late last month. It was followed by the arrest of a 27-year-old man from the borough of Waltham Forest on Feb. 27.

The numbers of available flights and passenger seats at the Portland International Jetport are expanding this year, even as they shrink at airports elsewhere in the country.
Capacity at Portland is projected to be up 15 percent in November from the year before, according to a report by Joel Antolini, a consultant with Seabury Airline Planning Group.

A current "hot" trend among second-level airports is to "re- brand" themselves by attaching the name of a nearby major metro area. When Manchester, N.H., starts to call its airport "Manchester/ Boston," does that help or hinder travelers?
I'm aware of a handful of airports that have taken on the name of a nearby or sort-of nearby big city: Baltimore: Baltimore / Washington International Thurgood Marshall Airport (BWI); Gary, Ind.: Gary/Chicago International Airport; Manchester, N.H.: Manchester/Boston Regional Airport; Ontario, Calif.: L.A./Ontario International Airport; Palmdale, Calif.: L.A./Palmdale Regional Airport; Rockford, Ill.: Chicago Rockford International Airport; Sanford, Fla.: Orlando Sanford International Airport.

Everyone talks about the price of airline tickets out of Bangor and wishes that a low-cost carrier would come into the market. We all do. Yet there are a few things that the traveling public should realize.
First, every ticket is sold out of the Bangor market and goes to Portland or Manchester, N.H., and makes the passenger traffic numbers of those airports better. This fact makes low-cost carriers sit up and look at those airports for possible future expansion. Volume passenger traffic is what attracts new airlines to new markets.
