Don’t Let Your Phone Choose Your First Thought
The first few minutes of your morning can quietly set the direction of your attention. Try this small, slightly rebellious habit before the notifications start making decisions for you.
The Tiny Word That Makes Blake’s “The Sick Rose” So Terrifying
William Blake’s eight-line poem turns a rose, a worm, and one “dark secret love” into a complete horror story. Read it once for the plot; read it again for the grammar doing the damage.

Your Attention Is Not a Security Deposit
William James had a deceptively radical idea: experience is built from whatever we permit into the room. His 1890 observation explains why a five-minute glance at a notification can somehow eat an afternoon.

The Giant Van Gogh Screensaver Has to Go
The “immersive art experience” has turned masterpieces into a theme-park ride with better lighting. I am begging museums to let paintings be paintings again.

CAP Small Business Help TARIFF UPDATE: Vermont businesses that paid tariffs recently struck down by the Courts can seek reimbursement through the CPB portal. We are listening and learning about better ways the Consumer Assistance Program can assist small businesses. We are meeting with businesses, trade associations and business groups in every corner of Vermont. We will work to solve problems that small businesses perceive. We cannot provide legal advice, but we can provide small businesses with information and answers to common questions in the consumer domain.

Get help with a consumer complaint
Get help with a consumer complaint We're here to help. File a Complaint Update a Complaint We can try to help consumer and business parties open lines of communication to see if a resolution may be possible outside of the court process. This is not a formal legal process, and we cannot guarantee a response or resolution. However, we find that we are often able to help consumers like you get responses to complaints through this process. In order to assist you, we need a brief description of your complaint that we can send on to the business you identify for response. What happens when a complaint is filed? Our complaint process is centered on sharing information, so both parties understand each other's position. When we receive a consumer complaint, we forward it to the business named, and ask the business to respond. This way, the business: Knows a complaint has been filed, Can learn what the consumer concern is and what the consumer would like done to resolve the issue, and Can respond to resolve the matter and make sure that their perspective is on the record. For this process to work, we need both parties to keep us updated on the status of the complaint. If you have filed a consumer complaint, or if your business has received a complaint and wishes to respond, please update us by emailing [email protected] or use our online form.
