After historic floods swept through Vermont last week, volunteers swarmed the capital city to help clean up. In a neighborhood a few miles away was a more somber undertaking.
A three-day dispatch, from a mobile home park devastated by flooding:

In recent months, Seven Days reporters spoke with recent arrivals from Afghanistan as they navigated the language and rituals of this country. They are a varied lot, representing Afghanistan's distinct regions, ethnic roots and social classes buff.ly/4etDRnC

This is where Terry McLaurin was when Jayden Daniels threw that ball. What a game!!
Colin Flanders retweeted
Jayden Daniels called game.
What a masterful outing by Daniels, Kingsbury and the Washington offense.
Just an incredible performance by the rookie. On the road. In prime time.
Colin Flanders retweeted
Jayden Daniels just got obliterated in the pocket on a deep shot to Terry McLaurin in the back of the end zone.
Amazing catch. Better throw. Ball game. Night night.
Daniels coming out party. 21/23, 254 yards, 2 TDs.
Oh my god.
Daniels dime. He called game.

A fascinating story in the @wweek about a burial mix-up at an Oregon cemetery.
I wrote about an almost identical case here in VT last month:

Welp, @KevinMcCallum7d got the video.
In a joint statement, Burlington Police and Burlington School District blame Wednesday's mock shooting incident on a "breakdown in communication" and say they held a "restorative circle" with the impacted students today.
How, exactly, communication broke down remains a mystery.

Burlington police terrified high school students this week when they staged a mock shooting in an attempt to teach them about the unreliability of witness statements. My latest, with @CFlandersVT

This is wrong, @MyNBC5. Overdose deaths fell slightly *year-over-year* for the first time since 2019. But last year's 231 deaths was still the second-highest total since the state began tracking this figure.

My latest scoop in @sevendaysvt: The mother of a 14-yr-old Black teen sues the City of #BTV, alleging excessive force by @OneNorthAvenue and racial bias by police and @btvfire. sevendaysvt.com/news/lawsuit…
Find me a better one-two punch than these. (Also, “them’s some big potatoes” has to be a top five pick-up line)
