Dr. John W. Hennessey Jr., Third Century Professor Emeritus at the Tuck School of Business, Dartmouth College, has been named the newest member of the Board of Trustees at Goddard College. Dr. Hennesseys nomination to serve on the Board was approved unanimously at a recent meeting of the Board of Trustees. We are honored to welcome Dr. Hennessey to the Board, said Barbara Vacarr, president of Goddard College. His vision about education and democracy is aligned well with Goddards vision and mission. Dr. Hennessey understands deeply the current need for higher education to assume a leadership role in our country. Dr. Hennessey has dedicated his professional life to improving the quality of higher education. He served as Associate Dean and then Dean at the Tuck School of Business, Dartmouth College from 1962 to 1976. He co-founded Dartmouths Ethics Institute in 1981 and taught business ethics to undergraduates and MBA students until 1987. Dr. Hennessey also served for three years as the first Provost of the University of Vermont and as Interim President in 1990. Hennessey has served on more than 30 boards of non-profit and corporate entities, often as chair. Notably, he is a former trustee

Dr. John Hennessey Joins Goddard Board of Trustees

Rep. Peter Welch has hired Waterbury native Megan Sullivan Rodriguez to serve as his liaison to Vermonts business community. Megan, who began work on Monday March 12th, will undertake a statewide tour of Vermonts businesses in her first weeks on the job. She will work out of Welchs Burlington office. A University of Vermont graduate with a BA in Political Science, Rodriguez most recently served as a procurement counselor with the Vermont Procurement Technical Assistance Center (PTAC) where she advised Vermont businesses on securing federal contracts. Rodriguez has also worked as a business support specialist for the state of Vermont and has collaborated extensively with business and economic development leaders throughout the state. Were very excited to have Megan on board to help Vermonts businesses succeed, Welch said. Her experience and her understanding of the Vermont business climate will be an incredible asset to our office. Since he first took office in 2007, Welch has employed a dedicated business liaison to serve as a resource for the business community in Vermont.

Waterbury Native is New Business Liaison for Rep. Welch

and trustee emeritus of Vermont Law School, and has served as board chair of the Educational Testing Service, the DartmouthHitchcock Medical Center, and Kendal at Hanover, a continuing care retirement community. He now sits on the boards of Americans for Campaign Reform, Patient Choices-Vermont, and Goddard College. I am looking forward to serving Goddard, said Hennessey. Dr. Vacarr and the Board clearly have the college pointed in a new and exciting direction, and this is a promising time for trustees to carry out their special governance responsibilities. Hennessey served as first lieutenant in the U.S. Army during World War II, taking leave from his undergraduate studies at Princeton University to volunteer for service in 1943. He returned to Princeton after the war and graduated in 1948, and later earned his MBA from Harvard University in 1950 and his Ph.D. from the University of Washington in 1956. Dr. Hennessey is married to Madeleine May Kunin, former Governor of Vermont, Deputy Secretary of Education and Ambassador to Switzerland during the Clinton administration. The couple resides in Burlington.

The Annual Vermont Maple Open House Weekend will be held at sugarhouses throughout Vermont this Saturday and Sunday, March 24 25. Maple Open House Weekend is a celebration of the maple syrup season in Vermont and an opportunity for you and your family to visit one or more sugarhouses throughout the state to learn about maple sugarin in Vermont. We expect to have another good year of maple syrup production, said Bill Clark, a sugarmaker in Rutland County. The weather this year is reminiscent of the 1949 season when trees were tapped as early as Valentines Day. Maple sugaring is a rich part of Vermonts identity and heritage, said Betty Ann Lockhart, author of the book Maple Sugarin in Vermont and member of the Vermont Sugarmakers Association. The Maple Open House Weekend is a quintessential Vermont event that celebrates

Maple Open House Weekend This Saturday & Sunday

this timeless tradition. Some sugarhouses offer tours of their sugarbushes and many have special activities for families. No two sugarhouses are the same so you are encouraged to visit more than one. There is nothing sweeter than visiting a local sugarhouse. From the tree to the table, youll see firsthand why Vermonters make the finest maple syrup in the world. Vermont is the largest U.S. producer of maple syrup and produced over a million gallons of syrup in 2011. There are approximately 2000 maple producers in Vermont. Information about all of the participating maple syrup producers including which of the two days they will be open and directions to their sugarhouses can be found on www.vermontmaple.org.

Seventeen watershed improvement projects were chosen to receive funding from Vermonts 2012 Watershed Grant Program, according to an announcement last week from the Vermont Fish and Wildlife Department. A total of 41 applications were received, requesting a total of about $379,000. The 2012 funding available totaled $120,000, and the size of the individual grants ranged from $1,500 to $15,000. Some of the projects receiving funding are related to the damage from Tropical Storm Irene, including habitat restoration, river corridor planning and tree plantings. Other projects include community outreach about lakes and streams, workshops for road foremen about best practices for managing stormwater runoff, and a recognition program for landowners who walk the talk on conservation. The Vermont Watershed Grants program offers Vermonters an opportunity to protect, restore, and enjoy watersheds by providing state funding. Half of the proceeds from Vermont Conservation License Plate sales fund the Vermont Watershed Grants program, which distributes the funds as grants for local and regional water-related proj-

ects in Vermont. Example projects include streambank plantings, rain gardens, fish passage improvements at stream barriers, lake water quality sampling, outreach and watershed planning. The Departments of Environmental Conservation and Fish and Wildlife co-administer the program that began in 1998 and has provided over a million dollars to fund over 300 projects. There may be grant programs that offer more money than our Watershed Grants, but local volunteers and dedication make a little bit go a long way, said Rod Wentworth of the Vermont Fish & Wildlife Department. Were glad to provide an option for what I like to think of as little grants with big results. When Vermonters purchase a Conservation License Plate theyre helping protect clean water as well as conserving wildlife and important habitats for future generations, said Fish & Wildlife Commissioner Patrick Berry. Proceeds from the sale of Conservation License Plates fund the Watershed Grants program and help support the Fish & Wildlife Departments Nongame Wildlife Fund.

Poulos Insurance says...

DO YOU HAVE A PERSONAL UMBRELLA POLICY?
A personal umbrella policy (PUP) is a necessary addition to insurance protection for most people. A PUP provides an additional limit of $1,000,000(or more) if needed. This policy is designed to protect your assets from the potential of a large, liability lawsuit that exhausts the underlying liability limits of your auto, home or RV policy. The situation of a serious incident arising from just normal, daily activities can expose all of us to the potential for a large claims suit. Whether it's a serious auto accident, an event during a party at your home or even an accident while boating...there are very real consequences of situations that can quickly exhaust underlying limits and threaten the net worth of the people involved. Coverage is readily available and costs less than a dollar per day. If you want to know more, contact us at...... 2011

Come sing-a-long with Jon! My performances, regardless of where or for whom, are designed to fit the audience to a tee, and to leave them feeling renewed, hopeful, and emotionally charged. My originals are fraught with childish illogic, profound feelings, absurd humor and, at times, both subtle and obvious messages. Much of my subject matter involves The Family. Ill have folks singing and clapping together, guffawing, weeping, whatever it takes for an audience to revel in its humanity. Winnie Bell Learned Grant The Jaquith Library is the Proud Recipient of a Winnie Bell Learned Grant! This grant will be used to develop the easy readers collection and includes a shelf to hold all of the new books! Stay tuned for the list of easy readers in the next Field Notes! The Winnie Belle Learned Fund is a fund created in 2007 by Dr. Burnett Rawson in honor of Winnie Belle Learned, a Vermont educator and his benefactress. Dr. Rawsons goal for Winnie Bell Learned grants is to help small public libraries in Vermont foster in their local communities: literacy, the love of learning, skills and opportunities for critical analysis, and intellectual exploration. Though the grant is not restricted to services for young children, Dr. Rawson particularly values library programs and services for pre-school children; he knows that libraries can play a key role in the development of young readers and can foster a life-long love of books and learning.

Phenomenal! Its nice to be with people who truly love what they do. Dr. Aveni is my new best friend and we love Ashley. Ok - so this is another great story...Blaise and Martin Smith have four kids, including their newest arrival Gaige Dennis Robert Smith. Elena, 8 years old, was born January 1 (1/1); Dallas, 4 years old, was born on February 2 (2/2); and Gaige was born on March 3 (3/3). And all four kids - which includes Claudia (age 18) - were born in a leap year AND all in room 204 at CVMC. Gaige weighed 7lb/4oz. Hes mighty cute. That seems to run in this Berlin, VT family! Heres hoping that everything remains forever aligned! Happy Birthday Gaige!

MAGIC MAZE

By Samantha Bubar Upon entering Next Chapter Bookstore, you will find a lovely seating area, furnished with comfortable antique-looking chairs. The view from the seating area onto the street, it is great entertainment, said owner Cynthia Duprey. A long time dream of Dupreys has been to own a bookstore. The timing has been perfect, she explained. With a childrens librarian grandmother- Duprey has always wanted to do this. Although her degree is in elementary education, she started out as an English major in college and has always had a passion for reading. Next Chapter Bookstore, located at 158 North Main Street in Barre, opened on February 13, 2012. The grand opening was crazy, exclaimed Duprey with unbridled enthusiasm. Since the grand opening business has been great according to Duprey and as far as sales and traffic, Duprey said Every day has been a good average day. Her favorite part of her job is seeing all the different people, Duprey said without hesitation. She loves the regular traffic and said, Even though weve only been open for a month, we do have regulars. A main priority of Duprey is accommodating for her customers. If she doesnt have a book, she will order it and said, Ive been ordering books almost every day, which is a great sign for business. Another way of accommodating her customers is extending her hours once the construction starts as well as working on delivering books to Woodridge Nursing Home. There is one gentleman at Woodridge that orders a book almost every week, said Duprey. She sometimes delivers his book selec-

Starting the Next Chapter

tion to him and would like to work on delivering to the Woodridge community on a weekly basis. Duprey has been letting private book clubs utilize her space for their meetings as well. She will also be starting a store book club that will meet once a month. Another popular feature among the younger crowd is story time. Saturdays at 10:30 A.M. the store is filled with children gathered around the tree house in the middle of the store. The tree house, complete with loft and a kids only sign posted on the side is the perfect setting for a Saturday getaway for children and parents alike. Guest readers for story time can sign up or be asked to read. When we dont have anyone signed up, I do the reading, said Duprey. Miss Vermont will be making an appearance to read in April. With a wide audience, Duprey seems to have their interests covered. She would like to see more of a local community presence in her store. Events like local author book readings and signings, featuring local artists and anything to support local anything! is welcome. Independent book stores in New England are holding their own, stated Duprey, a comforting realization for a new book store owner, especially with the rise of e-books and electronic readers. Next Chapter Bookstore is located at 158 North Main Street in Barre. Their hours are 9:30 A.M. to 6 P.M. Monday through Saturday. To order a book or have a question answered call (802) 476-3114 or send an email to info@NextChapterBooksVT.com For information about the store book club, stop by, call or email to sign up. Its time for the Next Chapter in your life!

Coming Soon to the Savoy Theater

A Separation
Nader and Simin a husband and wife of 15 years stand before a judge in a Tehran courtroom. Simin wants to take their daughter Temeh and leave. Nader doesnt want to lose his family, but he cant go with them because he has made a commitment to care for his elderly father. Both parents passionately plead their case but the judge orders them to resolve the family squabble on their own. It is a startling opening scene. As bad as it seems at first for this Iranian family, it is all down from there. The Artist, the foreign film that won Best Picture, is a perfectly charming little flick. A Separation, the movie that won the Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film, is a thousand times better. Walking into the theater, you may view Iran as our enemy; as the most dangerous arm of the axis of evil. But I am certain that you will quickly be drawn into the story and begin sympathizing with the very relatable and very middle class characters. You cant help but feel for 11-year-old Temeh. She is an innocent victim of the tumult that has engulfed her family and her country. The ending of A Separation is absolutely perfect. Temeh is at the courthouse with her mom and dad and the judge asks the poor girl to make the final decision as to which of them

Healthy Community Classes

she has chosen to live with. Temeh reports that she has made her decision but she does not feel comfortable saying it in front of her parents. The judge orders Nader and Simin to leave his chambers. As the sad, silent divorcees take their seats on opposite sides of the hallway outside the courtroom, the closing credits roll. We never learn which parent Temeh has chosen. But it doesnt really matter. Either way she will be in a loving home; just not as loving as it would have been if her parents had stayed together. And no matter who she chooses to live with, she will still be stuck in a country with deep and bitter cultural divisions. Women and men cant communicate with each other. The middle class and the working class are suspicious of each other. Modern values clash with Islamic traditions. Plus, everyone in Iran has been put in a more precarious and desperate financial situation because of the recession and uncontrolled inflation. And, thanks to the international economic sanctions, these problems are getting worse. The United States, Saudi Arabia, and Israel are right to be displeased by the reckless actions of the Iranian regime. However, A Separation reminds us that the poor Persian people are the worst victims.

The Barre Opera House welcomes acoustic guitar master Leo Kottke on Saturday, March 24 at 8pm as part of its 2011-12 TD Bank Celebration Series. The show is sponsored by Leahy Press, Liberty Mutual and USI Insurance, with media support from The Point. Leo Kottke is widely recognized as one of the greatest American masters of acoustic guitar. His propulsive fingerpicking technique abounds with syncopated rhythms and polyphonic melodies, combining jazz, blues and folk to create a singularly rich musical style. Unparalleled in his instrumental precision and sophistication, Kottke is also known for the innovation of his songwriting, the expressiveness of his baritone voice and the witty banter of his live performances. He reached the U.S. Top 50 for the first time with 1975s Chewing Pine, and Kottke has since gained an international cult following thanks to his performances at folk festivals the world over. Says Kottke, I play guitar like a little piano the way classical music is played. But Im using a blues route and rhythm. Although hes produced more than 25 albums, he prefers performing to recording spending about 80 percent of his time on the road tour the United States and Australia. If youre allowed to play, youve got to play, he says. Its been more fun for me than

its ever been. I thought it would wear me out, but it does just the opposite. Its like air, water. Tickets for Leo Kottke are $10-30, with discounts for seniors, students, people with disabilities and members order online at www.barreoperahouse.org or call the Barre Opera House at 802476-8188. The Opera House is handicapped accessible and equipped for the hearing impaired.

The 10th Annual Cabin Fever Reliever benefit to raise money for the Cancer Patient Support Program is scheduled for Saturday, March 31st. Money raised will provide psychological support, nutritional counseling, and financial assistance to cancer patients and their families throughout Vermont. This dance concert, founded and organized by Doug Grahn from Middlesex, has other strong Central Vermont ties. Kevin Crossett and GuitarSam were the first sponsors in 2003, and Kevin has donated a Fender Telecaster guitar package each year, which has become a major fundraiser. Bennett Shapiro and MadTech Sound from Middlesex will also be providing a world-class sound system for the 9th year. Perennial sell-out performer Bill Kirchen from Austin, Texas, dubbed the Titan of the Telecaster by Guitar Player Magazine will perform again, backed by fan favorite and high-energy honky-tonk band the Starline Rhythm Boys. Kirchen gained renown as a founder, lead guitarist and vocalist for country-rockers Commander Cody & His Lost Planet Airmen. He was nominated for a Grammy in 2001, inducted into the Washington, DC Area Music Hall of Fame in 2002, and is a member of the Rockabilly Hall of Fame. His signature hit song Hot Rod Lincoln will be just one of many numbers he is bound to play. Kirchens latest album Word to the Wise features duets with many long-time friends, including Elvis Costello, Nick Lowe, Paul Carrack, Maria Muldaur, Dan Hicks and Commander Cody. The night will begin with a special performance by Elisabeth von Trapp (w/Peter Riley), granddaughter of the legendary Baron and Maria von Trapp. Also appearing will be Grammy winner LeRoy Preston (a founding member and principal songwriter for the original Asleep at the Wheel), Betsy-Dawn Williams (Girl

The WORLD

March 21, 2012

By Cathy Systo, AAMS eres a sobering statistic: 46 percent of workers surveyed had little or no confidence that they will have enough money to live comfortably throughout their retirement years, according to the 2010 Retirement Confidence Survey, issued by the Employee Benefit Research Institute. So you may want to explore all possible retirement savings vehicles including a variable annuity. Generally speaking, when saving for retirement, its a good idea to contribute as much as possible to your IRA and your 401(k) or other employer-sponsored retirement plan. But if youve fully funded those plans for the year, and you still have some money left to invest, you may want to consider a variable annuity, which offers these benefits: Tax deferred earnings Your variable annuitys earnings have the opportunity to grow tax-deferred, which means your investment dollars can accumulate faster than if they were placed in an investment on which you paid taxes every year. When you eventually make withdrawals, your earnings will be taxed at your ordinary income tax rate. (For non-qualified annuities, you wont have to pay additional taxes on the amount you contributed.) There are no tax advantages to investing in a variable annuity with qualified money. Variety of investment options offer diversification Variable annuities allow individuals to invest in several different professionally managed investments, known as subaccounts. You can choose the subaccounts that best fit your risk tolerance, time horizon and long-term objectives. Keep in mind, though, that diversification does not guarantee a profit or protect against a loss. No contribution limits Each year, you can contribute far more to a variable annuity than you can to your 401(k) and your IRA. In fact, you can contribute virtually unlimited amounts to your annuity.

Need to Boost Retirement Income? Consider Variable Annuities

Payout flexibility A variable annuity provides you with flexibility in gaining access to your money. You could, for instance, collect a lump sum. But you might find it more advantageous to take your payments over a specified number of years. You could even choose to receive a lifetime income stream. Guaranteed death benefit If you die, your beneficiary is usually guaranteed the amount originally invested, minus previous withdrawals. Some variable annuities offer death benefit options, which may increase the death benefit over time. Guarantees are based on the claims-paying ability of the issuing insurance company. While variable annuities do offer some key advantages, there are also some considerations to discuss with your financial advisor before investing. For one thing, variable annuities are not suitable for everyone. A variable annuity is unquestionably a long-term investment. In fact, you may be assessed a surrender charge if you pull money out of the contract within the first several years after you purchase it. However, some variable annuities allow you to withdraw a portion of your investment, such as 10 percent of your purchase payments without incurring a surrender charge, while others allow full withdrawals. Another point to keep in mind is that if you tap into your annuity before you reach age 59-1/2, you may be hit with a 10 percent early withdrawal penalty. One final note: A variable annuity is just that variable. The value of your annuity will go up and down, based on whats happening in the financial markets, and theres no guarantee that your annuity wont lose principal. Also, variable annuities vary greatly in their terms, features and fees, so, before investing, youd better shop around. Consult with your financial advisor to determine which variable annuity is most appropriate for your needs. Ultimately, though, you may well find that a variable annuity may be the final piece to your retirement income puzzle.

THANK YOU FOR SAYING I SAW IT IN

Unclaimed refunds totaling more than $1.4 million may be waiting for 1,700 Vermont taxpayers who did not file a federal income tax return for 2008, the Internal Revenue Service announced. However, to collect the money, a return for 2008 must be filed with the IRS no later than Tuesday, April 17, 2012. The IRS estimates that half of these potential 2008 refunds in Vermont are $647 or more. In some cases, people may not have filed their 2008 returns because they had too little income to require filing a tax return even though they had taxes withheld from their wages or made quarterly estimated payments. In cases where a return was not filed, the law provides most taxpayers with a three-year window of opportunity for claiming a refund. If no return is filed to claim a refund within three years, the money becomes property of the U.S. Treasury. For 2008 returns, the window closes on April 17, 2012. The law requires that the return be properly addressed, mailed and postmarked by that date. There is no penalty for filing a late return qualifying for a refund. The IRS reminds taxpayers seeking a 2008 refund that their

These diverse communities all support the vision of a local food system that meets the needs of the community, supports local farmers, and sustains the working landscape. Debate at town meetings, and events prior to town meeting day, highlighted the real on-the-ground problems farmers and consumers face in their efforts to provide and access community based foods. Vermonters are concerned and want to see policies that are scaled appropriately for Vermont and suitable for the needs of their communities. These Town Meeting Day resolutions are just one piece of Rural Vermonts broad campaign to support Vermonters Feeding Vermonters. Rural Vermont will continue collaborating with communities and groups throughout Vermont to develop local food systems that sustain our farmers, our communities, and our lands. Once again, thank you to the thousands of Vermonters who believe in Vermonters Feeding Vermonters. For more info, call (802) 223-7222, visit www.ruralvermont.org, or email robb@ ruralvermont.org.

Blood Drive at Twinfield on Wednesday

Editor: The American Red Cross will have a blood drive at the Twinfield High School gym on Wednesday, March 21, at 1:00 to 6:00 PM. Last year, I was told that fewer pints of blood were contributed than the year before, so I'm hoping to encourage people in the area to make it a priority this time. If this is your first time, eat a good meal, hydrate yourself, and bring a government-issued I.D. A volunteer will register you, a drop of blood will be taken from your finger to be sure you have enough iron to donate a pint, and you'll recline comfortably for the ten minutes while blood is drawn. It is painless for you but a great contribution to someone in need. There's plenty of parking in the school lot, you'll have a free snack when you're through, you'll probably see a neighbor, and you'll be on your way-- knowing that you've helped someone at a critical time. For more information, contact the American Red Cross in Burlington at 802-658-6400. Linda Goldberg Marshfield

Editor: I really don't know what this country is coming to, and I am very disappointed and discouraged. My husband and myself are far from rich. Just trying to survive from day to day is a chore. My husband is in dire need of a hip replacement. He has been suffering with pain for over four years. We had health insurance through the State of Vermont, but we also had to figure out a way to pay our bills when he would be recuperating. We were also receiving food stamps from the State - a whopping $16 a month. My husband decided to take early retirement. He also receives a small check from the VA because of a hearing disability that he acquired while serving his country. He felt that by receiving this combined money we would be able to pay our bills. It didn't work out that way! We didn't give it any thought that by taking early retirement and being disabled that this would put us in a higher income bracket. I also forgot to say that he works parttime. Keep in mind that we are still in the poverty bracket. Well, the government doesn't seem to feel so. We cannot have our State health insurance any more or our food stamps. We supposedly make too much money. We are expected to be able to acquire private health insurance. Is the government for real? Do they care at all or even realize what private health care insurance costs? Oh and another thing. These politicians that we vote into office tell us to call their offices if we have a problem; what a joke that is! I was so upset when I heard about our health insurance that I called Rep. Peter Welch and Sen. Leahy. Of course I talked to their receptionists. I never heard a thing back from either of them. So as of the end of March we will no longer have health insurance. My poor husband will have to put his hip replacement on hold indefinitely and suffer with the pain. The sad reality is, you cannot better yourself because if you do, you are penalized. The government wants to keep you at a certain level. Don't try to exceed that level! What irritates me the most is how fast this country rushes to the aid of other countries, but seems to forget its own citizens. They should help their own first. Another irritation is that my husband has worked his whole life and also served his country. Why should his retirement money and his small disability count against him? Everybody knows the old saying, "Nobody said life is fair." It sure isn't! Linda Plante Barre

Editor: Vaccines are injectable pharmaceutical products which are highly profitable. The death of KayLynne Matten last December was a tragic consequence of blind reliance on these products and our failure to outline adequate risk information. Vaccines are often compared to seat belts, but are more like air bags. They can/do go off at the wrong time or explode too forcefully. Like vaccines, they can cause death or disability. That is why most vehicles today have switches to turn airbags on or off, and why Vermont allows philosophical exemption. Federal law requires that a Vaccine Information Statement be provided before administering a vaccine, after which a parent can opt out. This does not always occur. KayLynnes mother, Nicole has said, If I would have known the reactions and symptoms of adverse reactions to vaccination, I would have had her seen immediately. If I would have known about the risks and symptoms, I would have been most likely able to save my daughter, said Nicole. I feel that Vermonters need to be educated and be able to make their own decisions on whether or not they want to vaccinate their children and pediatricians and physicians, as well, need to be more educated. There is a glaring absence of life-threatening epidemic crisis here that might warrant a limit on parental rights by removing this exemption. More consumer protection, not less, would be better for Vermont children against an ever-growing childhood vaccination schedule (currently 38 shots by age 6 in VT; 49 recommended by CDC).

S.103 - Life choice

Food Sovereignty Resolutions Show Support for Farmers and Community

Editor: There is a huge disconnect in the way this bill is seen. Supporters of end of life choice understand there are people who are dying and want a choice in the way that happens. It is that simple. The issues of teen suicide, insurance, disability, terminal sedation, pain management, etc. have no bearing on the topic. They all have their own agenda and protocols. End of life choice is just that... personal choice based on quality of life. Denise Connally Berlin

ince I have had problems with my eye (eyes) I have had time to reflect on all the weird things that are part of my daily life! When I worked, I never even thought about what I do or why, but with lots of in home time, I have more than enough time now. And what I have realized is that I am not the well-rounded woman that I thought I was. When I was a little girl and attending a public school with all of my neighborhood friends, I was never allowed to stay at school for lunch. And back in those days, no mother that I knew had a car, so that meant that we walked to school. For me, it meant that I had to make that trip four times a day, and friends let me tell you, it was quite a long walk each way. But one day when I was in about 4th grade, my mother told me that I could stay at school and eat my lunch which I had to bring with me, of course. I was so excited that I thought that I had been given a real present. I hadnt been eating lunch at school for very long when I noticed that one of my friends had an exciting sandwich. What it was was a slice of white bread with the crusts cut off, a little mayonnaise and one stalk of canned asparagus. And the whole thing was rolled up. I thought that this was the most wonderful sandwich that I had ever seen or tasted so I asked my mother if I could have one too. And I kid you not, I had the same sandwich for lunch for two years! It never varied and I guess I still liked it. I dont remember but I do remember thinking that it might have been a treat to have a variation once in a while. But, oh no. I asked for it and it was what I was going to get. The only reason I bring that sandwich up is I still have the same sort of behaviors today! I dont mind eating the same thing over and over and I am always surprised if someone mentions my inability to change. The other day I went out for lunch with my daughter to a restaurant in Waitsfield called Jays. And every time I go there, whether it is breakfast, lunch or dinner, I always have the same thing. It is a Mediterranean omelet and although it comes with home fries and toast, I always have it the same way with no fries or toast but with a small bowl of fresh fruit. Every now and then I want to try something different but I just love that omelet and so I never vary. Dont you think that this is a little weird for a woman with a little age on her? And I wont bore you, but I do the same thing at home! Once I find something that I like I am never bored with it over and over and over again.

I am going to share with you another weird but true story of my youth. And I decided to share it with you because when I wrote about women of the late 40ss and early 50s not having cars available, it brought this episode to mind. One day I asked my mother if I could go to my friend, Nancy Tidebocks house after school. She lived quite far from school and because of the distance she got to ride the bus, lucky duck! My mother said, OK. Well, we were all playing at her house, which abutted a park, and were having a great time. My next door neighbor, Billy Riggs was also there and although I think it was an accident, he pushed me down and I broke my arm. Clutching my arm, Nancy and I rushed to her house and her mother insisted that I call my mother. I did and my mother told me to walk home and she would check out my arm when I got home. Of course, she didnt know which Nancys house I was at because I had another friend named Nancy who lived around the corner. So, I walked the 5 plus miles, holding my arm to my chest and I would assume sniveling all the way! When I finally got home, my mother was worried because she couldnt figure out why it was taking me so long to walk the block or two to get home. Of course we had to wait for my father to get home with the car before we went to the doctors but what upset my mother most of all wasnt my broken arm. Oh, no, she was frantic because she was worried what Mrs. Tidebock would think because she told me to walk the long distance home! I must tell you that the pain of my broken arm was made much better when Billys mother found out how I had broken it. I got to sit in my back yard and watch as she dragged Billy outside and paddled him within an inch of his life with an actual canoe paddle! Although he did apologize, nothing was better than being able to watch his humiliating punishment. Life has certainly changed since those long ago days. Children are not allowed to walk anywhere. Every mother worth her salt has at least one car. The mother who would paddle her son as a punishment would probably be sent to jail. And I dont think many children have to bring their lunch to school either. Now, a hearty and notorious lunch is provided. But for me, repetition of what I eat really hasnt changed that much. The only difference is now I am the one who decides what I eat. And I have never had another asparagus sandwich! And I am truly surprised to realize that I have carried genes from my mother food-wise and I still enjoy the anticipation of the same thing. Weird I know but it does work for me.

Senate Report: Sample of Town Meeting Survey Comments from Washington County

by Senator Bill Doyle

BARRE Raising the drop out age to 18 will increase the problems in school caused by students who dont want to be there. Vermont needs to develop comprehensive hands-on technical program in all high schools for students who are not college bound. BARRE TOWN Wind turbines on ridgelines must be carefully planned by energy providers and local residents in each case. Im in favor if its o.k. with local folks. If Vermont goes to a 4 year term, it should not line up with the presidential race. It should be run on its own and not with all the fanfare and confusion of a presidential race. BERLIN Wind towers are not the problem; the access roads to them are. Vermont should have strict guidelines on erosion control and water runoff from these access areas. Future wind towers should be colocated within ski resorts or within community agricultural land near Lake Champlain. CALAIS We need a study on a State/public bank. FAYSTON I firmly believe that cell phones should be prohibited while driving. We have seen people texting and drifting over the center of the highway, zagging when they do so. If you must use your phone, pull over to the side of the road and go to a rest stop and make your call. Thats what we do and it keeps everyone safe. The bottle law should be expanded to save consumers money both by being able to return the bottle and to save taxpayers the cost of cleaning up the roadsides in spring. They are dirty and un-

necessarily cluttered with unwanted plastic bottles. Vermont needs to get its fiscal house in order. Socialism only works so long and then you drive away the geese that lay the golden egg. Wake up! MONTPELIER Closing Yankee and becoming self-sustaining in alternative energy is the single most important item, regardless of cost. Wind turbine siting needs public input and regulation but clean solar wind hydro sources of generation must be developed locally. On a larger scale, wind farms should be part of the mix. NORTHFIELD Corporations should not be able to support political candidates with huge amounts of money. I wonder how different our elections would be if only individuals contribute and if there was a limit for the contributor and no more than a dollar amount for candidates. Perhaps we could get better candidates and deal with real issues and platforms instead of philanderous campaigns. WATERBURY Its alarming to witness people leaving Vermont - that of seniors, multi-generational Vermonters like myself having to move to another state for income and property taxes that are affordable. Several close friends have done so; I may have to join them even though its my wish to spend the rest of my years in the family home.

All of the above, and more, would be allowable reasons in Holland to have a doctor prematurely end someone's life. I consider this murder; and to call S.103 a civil right is a stretch and opens the door to all the other possibilities. When people say there is no "slippery slope" with S.103 (PAS), they are not being honest. Several years ago I attended a Death with Dignity Vermont presentation facilitated by a family physician who stated numerous times that if Vermont passes a bill it will be THE FIRST STEP and may not meet the needs of everyone, but it is THE FIRST STEP. S.103 is not a law that is needed in any State or any Country, now or ever! Mrs. Kathleen Grange Graniteville

bill was a top priority for the governor, who views it as a civil rights issue. Honestly, I have never before considered that having a doctor write a prescription with the sole intent of killing a patient should be labeled a "civil right!" So, according to Dr. Chen's testimony, if S.103 with all its "so-called protections" for a person with 6 months or less to live to get a doctor to prescribe a lethal dose of medication and a pharmacist to fill it with the express purpose of taking one's life is a civil right, why isn't it a civil right for a person who has more than 6 months to live? ...Or someone going through difficult economic, social, or family issues? ...Or someone depressed? ...Or a person who cannot self-administer the lethal dose of medication? ...Or a person no longer able to communicate? ...Or a teenager who just can't go on? ...Or a person coming to the

arents have been asking me if their children should have a blood test to screen them for cholesterol. Well, let me do more than chew the fat on this topic, and provide some information. Cholesterol is a fat substance which is made by the liver, or which can be introduced into the body from the foods we eat. Once inside the body, cholesterol contributes to our becoming overweight or obese and gets deposited in blood vessels, increasing our risk of heart disease. The National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute, recently updated its screening guidelines which were endorsed by the American Academy of Pediatrics because it appears that cholesterol can start accumulating in the body even in childhood. These organizations are now recommending that all children between the ages of 9 and 11 years be screened for cholesterol, and screened again between 17 and 21 years. They also recommend all children over the age of 2 who are at risk for elevated cholesterol get a screening test, and even if the level is normal, should continue to get screened every 3 to 5 years. So when is a child at risk of high cholesterol? The following represent some key risk factors: Family history of high cholesterol Family history of heart attack in someone less than 55 for men and 65 for women If the child or others in the family are overweight, hypertensive, or have diabetes. This could mean that as many as 3 out of every 4 children will

For most, feet and teeth are essential to daily living and must be kept healthy, but a diabetes diagnosis can mean added foot and dental problems and thus a need for extra vigilance. Gifford Medical Centers seventh annual free Diabetes Education Expo on March 23 focuses on foot and teeth health for diabetes with special presentations from Randolph dentist Dr. John Lansky and Gifford podiatrist Dr. Kevin McNamara. So many people dont realize the importance of particularly dental health when it comes to diabetes care.

probably need to be screened because they fall into a risk category even before age 9. The initial blood test is one that does not require children to fast. But even if you do not screen your child early, or he or she has a normal cholesterol level as a child, you should still pay attention to trying to keep their cholesterol levels low. You can do this by reducing the amount of high cholesterol and saturated fats in your childs diet by cutting back on the amount of high fat dairy products and high fat meats that they eat. Another good idea is to exercise regularly as a family to reduce the build-up of the types of cholesterol in all of us that can later affect the heart. The AAP is also now recommending that if diet or exercise by themselves do not help lower cholesterol, then a cholesterol-lowering medication usually recommended for adults can be tried in children 10 years or older, but discuss with your childs doctor to see if the benefits outweigh the risk of using these medications in your child, which currently would involve less than 1% of all children. Hopefully tips like these will allow you to get to the heart of the matter when it comes to knowing a little more about whether or not to screen your child for cholesterol.

Many people have trouble carving out long periods of time in their day for exercise, so they often don't do any. However, a new study revealed that even if you don't have time for long workouts, short periods of exercise can be just as good. A British study discovered that three 10-minute sessions of brisk walking over a five hour block of time lowered blood pressure and triglycerides (fats in the blood) just as well as one 30-minuute session. So if you can't find one 30-minute slot in your day, try doing three 10-minute workouts.

An exhibit entitled Living Connections: Voices and Visions from Shared Lives is on display in the cafeteria gallery on the second floor of the Vermont State House through Friday, March 30th. Photographs by Mary Claire Carroll and exhibit text by Deborah Lisi-Baker have been brought together here to explore some of the new directions being taken in disability services around the state. Mary Claire Carroll describes the lessons from the exhibit in this way . . . people with developmental and other disabilities are more than service recipients: they are friends, advisors, contributors, students, teachers, allies, and active members of their households, workplaces, social groups, and chosen communities. They also show us the human strength and promise of a society where we are all valued and where we all belong. Living Connections is supported by an awareness grant from Vermont Developmental Disability Council. Visitors to the State House can view Living Connections, Monday and Friday from 8am to 5pm, and Tuesday through Thursday, from 8am to 8pm. For more information, please call the Office of the State Curator at (802) 828-0749.

Photographs by Bethels Jesse Orr are now on display in the Gifford Medical Center art gallery. Orrs show titled The Looks of Vermont and More runs until March 28 and includes everything from fall foliage blazing above winter snow to snapshots of Irenes devastation and its survivors. Orr got his start in photography when his grandparents gave him a digital camera as a graduation gift. He started taking pictures wherever he went, and then he started sharing those photos with family and friends. Now many in the area know his photography. He has shown in the Gifford Gallery for each of the last six years. He has been a vendor at the Bethel Farmers Market since its inception in 2006, and his photos have been featured at the Frog Hollow Craft Shop in Middlebury. Orrs works are currently hanging at Ketners Caf in Randolph. He has cards at Chaplain Farms in Bethel and participates in local presentations of art at the Bethel Public Library and Bethel Historical Society Postcard Show. Many of his images depict Vermont nature in changing weather and sunlight, such as rainbows and at dawn and dusk. He carries his camera wherever he goes, capturing images out the truck window on his way to work, off the back porch at home, driving around to look at nature or even from the sky by plane. To see Orrs latest Looks of Vermont and More, visit the Gifford Gallery. The gallery is located just inside the hospitals main lobby. Gifford Medical Center is at 44 S. Main St. (also Route 12) in Randolph. Call Gifford at (802) 728-7000 or Volunteer Coordinator Julie Fischer at (802) 728-2324 for more information.

Barre Tech Center to Host Money Smart Child Parent Workshop

As part of a statewide initiative to encourage parents to teach their kids about money, the Barre Technical Center will host a Money Smart Child parent workshop on April 3 from 6-7:30pm. In September, the State Treasurers Office, along with the Vermont Jump$tart Coalition and Peoples United Bank announced that they had partnered to reach more than 11,000 Vermont families with resources parents can use to instruct their children about money. Fifty-seven elementary, middle school and high schools located throughout the state are distributing free copies of the booklet, How to Raise a Money Smart ChildA Parents Guide to the parents of their students. As part of the initiative, regional workshops were scheduled for the upcoming school year. The Barre Technical Center was selected as one of the regional workshop sites. It is our goal, that by reaching out to these families, they will be better prepared to succeed in the ever-changing world of finance, said Barre Tech Center Director Penny Chamberlin. The free workshop will examine five core areas of financial education; provide specific parent/child exercises in spending choices, budgeting, credit, and saving; and promote parents supporting one another in working with their children. The workshop will be facilitated by representatives of the Money Smart Child partnership. Free child care and food will be provided, along with the opportunity for a participating parent to win a $100 gift certificate to the restaurant of his or her choice. Its important to start teaching money management concepts to our children from a young age, said State Treasurer Beth Pearce. The Money Smart Child initiative aims to empower parents and other influential adults to share their personal finance knowledge and skills with the young people around them. Parents are in the best position to teach their children. We hope this initiative will provide parents with the resources they need to begin initiating successful conversation with their children about money. The Money Smart Child initiative is underwritten by Peoples United Bank. The 14-page guide was written by the national Jump$tart Coalition, a non-profit organization dedicated to improving the financial literacy of pre-kindergarten through college-age youth by providing advocacy, research, standards and educational resources. To view the guide online, go to www. MoneyEd.Vermont.gov. The goal of the Money Smart Child initiative is to help parents feel more comfortable teaching their children effective money management skills. Our bank is proud to be a partner in this effort, and help Vermont children get off on the right foot with their financial lives, explained Peoples United Bank Vermont President Michael Seaver. The workshop is open to the public. To sign-up for the workshop, contact the Barre Technical Center at (802) 476-6237 and ask for Sandra Wetzel or via email to dambtcbls@gmail.com. Preregistration is encouraged by March 27. The Barre Technical Center is located at 155 Ayers Street in Barre.

Legislators from Barre City and Barre Town will discuss what they have been working on during this years legislative session on Thursday, March 22, 2012, at 6pm in the Milne Room at the Aldrich Public Library, 6 Washington St., Barre. The nonpartisan program, sponsored by the Greater Barre Democrats, is free and open to all residents in the city and town. Tommy Walz and Laura Moore, co-chairs of the Greater Barre Democrats, noted that all four legislators representing the city and town plan to attend. They will talk about what major bills have been going through the legislature this year, Walz said, and they will update up on their committee work. Legislators include Tom Koch, who is on the House Rules and House Judiciary Committees; Francis Topper McFaun, who is on the House Human Services Committee; Paul Poirier, who is on the House Health Care Committee; and Tess Taylor, who is on the House Agriculture Committee. After brief presentations by each legislator, Walz will moderate a question and answer session from the audience. The program will end at 7:45pm. For more information, contact Tommy Walz (476-7819) or Laura Moore (476-3373). LIBRA (September 23 to October 22) Most problems surrounding that recent personal situation have been resolved, and that means you should move on to other things that are important to you. SCORPIO (October 23 to November 21) Spend this weekend recharging your physical and spiritual energies. When you return to your workaday world, youll be ready to take on that new project. SAGITTARIUS (November 22 to December 21) Be careful how you advise a troubled friend. Even your wise counsel could be misunderstood. Better to suggest that he or she seek professional help. CAPRICORN (December 22 to January 19) Family problems once again dominate and, once again, everyone seeks your guidance in these matters. Later, you can indulge in some much-needed relaxation. AQUARIUS (January 20 to February 18) Some mixed signals create confusion in the workplace. Best advice: Ask for explanations before you attempt to deal with any of these matters on your own. PISCES (February 19 to March 20) A patch of roiling water in the workplace could be threatening, but stay the course and youll soon be clear of it. Then go out and have a great time with loved ones. BORN THIS WEEK: Your extraordinary leadership qualities mark you as someone people can turn to for guidance in difficult situations.

On the evening of March 31, 2012, from 7-10pm, Barres Aldrich Library will host three floors of fabulous food, dancing and entertainment. This annual event showcases the beautiful, historic library and raises funds for its operation. The main floor will be cleared for dancing, and will feature the music of the Dave Keller Band. Dave Keller recently won The Blues Foundations 2012 Best Self-Produced CD Award with Deep Soul Gem. The library has been fortunate to have Dave and his band play for the last few years at this event. They provide wonderful music for dancing or just listening. Located in the librarys basement, the Milne room will feature two shows starring the Cold Country Bluegrass Band from Plainfield. They have been playing since the early 70s and have appeared in a variety of settings, and at several Bluegrass Festivals.
On March 31, 1889, the Eiffel Tower is dedicated in Paris. Gustave Eiffels tower was greeted with skepticism from critics, who argued that it would be structurally unsound. Within a few decades the tower came to be regarded as an architectural masterpiece.

Weve looked at the Pencil Skirt and the A-Line Skirt. This week lets look at the Tiered Skirt. This style of skirt can be worn by any body type, as the tiered skirt gathers at the waistline and continues from there adding a tier along the way. Tiered skirts can be any length. A short tiered skirt is irty and fun and generally will consist of three tiers. The longer tier skirt that ends at the mid-calf range may remind us all of Little House On The Prairie, but these days the trend is considered a romantic look so youll want to make sure that what youre wearing on top is a little more structured. Tiered skirts are fun; the perfect skirt for summer! Catch Fashion Know-How on WDEV (550 AM) at 7:50am every Sat.!

The Red Cross has planned a training session aimed at providing an introduction on how a person can volunteer with the American Red Cross to help area communities prevent, prepare for and respond to disaster. From 6pm to 9:30pm on Wednesday, March 21st, the Red Cross will present Disaster Services: An Overview at Berlin Elementary School, 372 Paine Turnpike North, in Berlin. The devastation of Tropical Storm Irene, record spring flooding and a busy winter fire season have all been vivid reminders that disaster can strike close to home. Responding to such events requires the combined efforts of local and state resources, including private and governmental organizations. Among those community partners is the American Red Cross, a non-governmental non-profit. American Red Cross disaster responses are carried out on a local level by volunteer Disaster Action Teams. These teams assist those affected by disasters such as fire, flood, winter storms, as well as other natural and man-made disasters. Disaster Services: An Overview is an instructor-led, basic level course and serves as an introduction to Red Cross disaster services. Included in the overview will be information on the role of Disaster Action Teams in helping their community prevent, prepare for and respond to emergencies and disasters. Participants will also learn more about the scope of Disaster Services at their local Red Cross. While the presentation serves as an introduction to becoming a volunteer American Red Cross Disaster Action Team member, and serves as a prerequisite for all Red Cross disaster training, anyone in the community who is interested in hearing the materials presented in this class is welcome. To register, contact Deb Lee of the Vermont & the New Hampshire Valley American Red Cross. She can be reached at dlee@vtnhvredcross.org or by calling her at 802-7739159.

Red Cross Disaster Services Class to be Taught in Berlin

Gifford Medical Center has been awarded a $35,000 grant from the Avon Breast Health Outreach Program to increase awareness of the life-saving benefits of early detection of breast cancer. The Avon Breast Health Outreach Program (BHOP) supports community-based, non-profit breast health programs across the country and is part of the Avon Foundation for Women, the largest corporate philanthropy dedicated to womens causes globally. This is the 11th consecutive year that Giffords Breast Health Program has received funding from the Foundation, resulting in a more than $415,000 investment regionally to increase awareness of the life saving benefits of mammograms and clinical breast exams. The only Vermont recipient, Gifford was selected as one of 120 grantees nationwide. Organizations like Gifford are chosen based on their ability to effectively reach women, particularly minority, low-income and older women, who are often medically underserved. Through the grant, Gifford Breast Care Coordinator Cheryl Manns travels the state speaking to women where they live, work and socialize about the life-saving benefits of early detection of breast cancer and sharing information on resources like Ladies First. Since Gifford received its first grant in 2002, it has provided more than 4,500 mammograms and nearly 3,500 clinical breast exams through the program, and referred countless others to hospitals in their region of the state for care. In 2011 alone, Gifford breast care personnel spoke to more than 5,000 Vermonters in communities near and far about having annual mammograms after age 40, annual clinical breast exams and doing self-breast exams so women know what is normal for them.

Gifford Receives Grant from Avon Breast Health Outreach Program

Breast cancer is the most common form of cancer in women in the United States and in Vermont. Its also the nations leading single cause of death overall in women between the ages of 40 and 55. According to the Vermont Department of Health, about 473 breast cancer cases are diagnosed among Vermont women each year. About 92 people each year die from the disease. Nationwide, there is a new diagnosis every three minutes and a death from breast cancer every 14 minutes. While advances have been made in prevention, diagnosis, treatment and cure, early detection still affords the best opportunity for successful treatment. According to the Avon Foundation, programs such as Giffords help ensure that all women have access to early detection information and options, even poor and medically underserved women. Pam Caron serves as director of ancillary services at Gifford and oversees the grant. I am so pleased and humbled that we have been given the Avon Foundation grant again this year. The importance of spreading the information about early detection of breast cancer to our communities is a passion our entire team of breast care personnel shares. I am very proud of the work they do and the care and compassion they show to our patients is phenomenal. The Avon grant supports our efforts and I look forward to continuing the mission in 2012, Caron said. Since 1993, the Avon Foundation has awarded more than 1,550 grants to community-based breast health programs across the United States. These programs are dedicated to educating underserved women about breast cancer and linking them to early detection screening services.

Annual Peoples Health & Wellness Clinic Bowl-A-Thon Set for Saturday, May 5
Peter Youngbaer. Its grown every year, and we hope this one will be bigger and better than ever. Last year, a special high school challenge attracted three teams. We hope more will take up the challenge this year to win some nice prizes and perform community service at the same time, Youngbaer added. All teams must sign up in advance. Individual bowlers may also sign up, and will be joined with others to form a team. Teams of 4-5 bowlers are each asked to raise a minimum of $50 per person - $250 per team. But dont stop there the best prizes will go to the top individual and team fundraisers. Prizes include overnight accommodations, restaurant meals, gift baskets, and other goods and services. Participants bowl for free, and the Twin City Lanes

snack bar and lounge will be open. The Bowl-A-Thon is underwritten by the National Life Group and Twin City Lanes and Games. All proceeds go directly to Clinic services. The Bowl-A-Thon is our major annual fundraising event, Youngbaer said. Some teams have been very creative and show up in costumes or unique bowling shirts. Its a great way to have fun, win prizes, and help out all at the same time. Since 1994, the Peoples Health & Wellness Clinic has provided primary health care and wellness education to the uninsured and underinsured community members of central Vermont who cannot otherwise afford these services.

HEALTH CARE
LOOKING FOR A MIRACLE/ Lose 20 pounds in one week? This is almost impossible! Weight loss ads must reflect the typical experiences of the diet users. Beware of programs that claim you can lose weight effortlessly. TIP: Clues to fraudulent ads include words like: breakthrough, effortless, and new discovery. When you see words like these be skeptical. Before you invest your time and money call the ATTORNEY GENERALS CONSUMER ASSISTANCE PROGRAM, at 1-800-649-2424. WANT A CURE-ALL? Health fraud is a business that sells false hope. Beware of unsubstantiated claims for health products and services. There are no Quick Cures - no matter what the ad is claiming. TIP: DO NOT rely on promises of a money back guarantee! Watch out for key words such as exclusive secret, amazing results, or scientific breakthrough. For more information on health related products or services, call the ATTORNEY GENERALS CONSUMER ASSISTANCE PROGRAM at 1-800-649-2424, or consult a health care provider.

Barber Chair
Q: I have a 1908 Koken Congress barber chair made of wood and brass. It is in fairly good condition. I would like to know the value of it. -- Charlia, East Alton, Ill. A: Although barber chairs were being manufactured in the United States as early as the 1870s, it was Ernest Koken, a German immigrant, who introduced deluxe barber chairs that often included leather seats, padded foot and arm rests, and elaborate wood carving and fancy detail. The Koken chairs were manufactured at a plant based in St. Louis and distributed throughout the country. Restored Koken chairs often sell in the $500 to $1,500 range, but as with most collectibles, there are always exceptions to the rule. To sell your chair, I recommend you contact antiques dealers in the St. Louis area. *** Q: I recently placed an ad on eBay to sell some fishing lures that were made about 1950 by Heddon. No one responded. What should I do next? -Lucille, Albuquerque, N.M. A: I think you should invest in a copy of Heddon Plastic Lures: Identification and Price Guide by Russell E. Lewis (Krause, $24.99). This excellent guide will give you a better idea of the value of your

Can Dog Droppings Attract Pests?
DEAR PAWS CORNER: We make sure to pick up after our dog, both when out for a walk and in the yard, which keeps the neighborhood and our lawn looking good. We store the collected excrement in an open box by the garage, daily, and then dispose of it each week in the trash. However, since this past summer we have been finding wood roaches -- two outdoors on our deck and three indoors. Could our disposal routine be attracting these roaches? -- Cindy in Michigan DEAR CINDY: A bit of research gave me some insight into wood roaches, and I am reasonably sure that your disposal method is not causing the infestation -- and in fact, you may not have a big problem. Wood roaches are very different from the German cockroach (a tough-to-eradicate house pest). They live and breed outdoors. Homeowners most often see them in the warmer months, between May and October, according to colonialpest.com. Their breeding season is in May and June. Most wood roaches enter through small cracks or openings in a home, but they can sometimes be carried inside with firewood or other items that are stored outdoors. Theyre also attracted to lights and can sneak into the house that way. Wood roaches cant breed indoors and usually cant survive in an indoor environment. You can shoo them outside in most cases, rather than using pesticides to kill them. Theyre actually beneficial to the woods and wild areas around your home, although they are unsightly. So, as long as your dogs droppings arent causing an odor problem that bothers your neighbors or attracts other pests, your collection and storage methods are probably OK.

OPEN HOUSE

By Samantha Mazzotta

Q: My basement stays fairly dry, but in the spring and during other really rainy periods I can see the concrete walls are wet. Is it condensation or water leaking inside? I havent seen any puddles of water on the floor, but it is really humid at these times. -- Bill in upstate New York

Is Basement Moisture a Leak, or Humidity?

Beautiful views from this well maintained 2678 sq. ft. split level home in a quiet neighborhood. 3-4 bedrooms, 2 ofces, 2 baths on 1.07 acres. First oor: (daylight basement) master bedroom, bath, Jacuzzi tub off bath, medium sized ofce, laundry room and family room with pellet stove, large under stairs storage. Middle oor: two bedrooms, full bath, kitchen and dining rooms leading onto deck. Top oor: large living room, wood stove, closet space, large ofce space. Email jibberjab@gmail.com for more pictures/ info or call Janelle at 802-249-3204. $249,000.

A: Theres an easy way to test whether the moisture on the basement walls is seepage (water leaking inside) or condensation. Get a few large squares of aluminum foil and tape them to random spots on the basement walls and floor. Use water-resistant tape and completely cover all four edges of the foil so that no air can get underneath it. Leave them there for a couple of days, and then carefully peel away the tape and check both sides of the foil. If the side facing the wall (the inner side) is wet, then seepage is your issue. If the outer side is wet, condensation is the problem. If both sides are wet, seepage is the most likely issue, with condensation possibly a result of the seepage.

To reduce seepage, check all of your gutters and downspouts to make sure they arent damaged and that rainwater is being directed well away from the foundation. The drain trough under the downspout also should be checked; make sure water isnt pooling there. Next, check the foundation and basement walls for small cracks, holes or gaps. Repair these with the appropriate type of cement. Finally, paint the interior basement walls with a waterproofing paint specifically formulated for this task, which adheres well to concrete or masonry. To reduce condensation issues, install a dehumidifier in the basement, or install a fan that will pull air outside and help the basement air circulate. Wrap insulation around cold-water pipes so condensation is less likely to occur in the basement space. Outside, try and increase the amount of air and sunlight that reach the basement by trimming back plants and hedges, especially around basement windows. HOME TIP: Debris and leaf dams in your gutters can damage them and lead to other problems around your homes exterior. Clean your roof gutters twice a year.

coldest temperature: Back to the S. Hemisphere to minus 67 back in Antarcticas Vostok Research station. Latest CO2 Reading from Mauna Loa Observatory Hawaii Carbon dioxide levels were measured at 393.65 in February. This was a rise of 1.89 parts per million since one year ago. This February reading was part of steady rise carbon dioxide levels which traps incoming solar irradiance and warms the our planet. A measurement of 350 or less was optimum for a stable climate. 350 parts per million last occurred back in 1987. Weather Trends AheadRecord warmth through Thursdaythen cooling some. Records will fall by the wayside on a daily basis: Old records that will likely be broken at the E.F. Knapp State Airport. Tuesday 62 degrees set 2010., Wednesday 54 degrees set 2003, Thursday 60 degrees set 1979, and 63 degrees Friday probably not broken set also in 1979. Best chances precipitation coming later Thursday or Thursday Night associated with the first transition of cooler air along a cold front
March Heat Wave Unprecedented. With record highs around our region falling each day through Thursday, the layout of the large scale weather pattern which has been accurately foreseen for past couple of weeks now has come true. 1. Very warm to hot Mexican heat rolls north and northeastward into southern Canada, a displacement so great as to be called historically unprecedented. The anomaly of extraordinary unseasonable temperatures was ground zero in southern Canada and the Great Lakes region. 2. Just as temperatures have been remarkably so warm here in Vermont and much of the Great Lakes, it has been very cold across the North Pacific and into Alaska. This colder air supplied with a trough of lower pressure just inland across the western states, has chilled out places like California where hail has fallen in San Jose, and added much needed snows to the Sierra Nevada and Rocky Mountains. 3. As the jet stream track (shown in Yellow Dashes) ridges into central Canada, a secondary trough or dip in the jet stream

which may trigger a round of showers and thunderstorms. Longer Range A return to real Winter?? An evolution toward more seasonable late MARCH weather was likely to return with the possibility of more snow on the ground toward the end of March. However this should not be shock to most Vermonters who know just how odd the current weather pattern is. Teleconnection indices show some interesting trends toward more winter weather, some might refer to a 4 point turn around in basketball terms. The Arctic Oscillation: which has been showing strong positive most of the winter minus a window in late February now switching to negative trend which supports more arctic chill dumping southward into the lower latitudes beware of early changing of snow tires! The North Atlantic Oscillation: Also going negative! Uh-oh, not only colder conditions setting up but perhaps strong jet stream energy aligning in the right pattern to take shape for the makings of a coastal storm systems and a Noreaster? These are what the latest indications were starting late this weekend and into next week. Check out Weathering Heights on Facebook

Last Weeks WeatherThe beginning of the earliest spring on Record! With snow depth rapidly dwindling across the valley floors and south facing intermediate slopes of Vermont, and an absence of snowfall due to well above normal temperatures with records high temperatures in the 60s, temperatures actually reached the low 80s last Sunday the 18th. Mud season had made itself felt on many back gravel roads taking on the feel of late April. Temperatures had reached the 60s breaking a few records but then cloudier damper weather moved in late last week keeping conditions dismal and cooler before the onrush of warmest weather began last Sunday. Historic, epic, incredible, weird - were some of the adjectives describing the buildup of heat through the upper Midwest and Great Lakes region all arriving late in the weekend, (please see the graphic). Winners and Losers The Positives: Early mud season possibly shortening time spent on manpower and equipment not to mention the greatest feeling of all after an odd but long winter Spring! Biking, motorcycling, walking, running and the many summer recreational opportunities outside water sports. The Negatives: Short and quick Sugaring season, Skiing, Snow Shoeing, Hiking (now with muddy trails and earlier than usual erosion,) offset migration of local wild life from amphibians to bird populations and many waterways now much warm than normal relative to time of year, and likely future effects of Lake Champlain. Whats behind the Historical Warm Spell in March
page 38 The WORLD

Like a baseball player on steroids, our climate system is breaking records at an unnatural pace. As Weather Channel meteorologist Stu Ostro says of the current heat wave: This remarkable warmth is associated with a bulging ridge of high pressure aloft that is exceptionally strong and long-lasting for March. While natural factors are contributing to this warm spell, given the nature of it and its context with other extreme weather events and patterns in recent years there is a high probability that global warming is having an influence upon its extremity. This year, U.S. heat records have been outnumbering cold records by a stunning amount 14-to-1 19-to-1 in March. Temperatures that were more characteristic of June have broken hundreds of temperature records over the last several days and promise to continue into the rest of this week. In some places, temperatures have been an eye-popping 30-40 degrees above normal, nearing or surpassing the warmest temperatures ever recorded so early in the season. Vermont Weather Stats last week ending Monday morning March 19th Highest temperature: 82 Randolph last Sunday afternoon on the 18th Lowest temperature: 28 Mount Mansfield and Shrewsbury Thursday morning the 15th Heaviest melted precipitation: 0.39 Fairfax ending Friday morning the 16th Heaviest Snowfall: 1/10th of an inch at Walden ending Thursday morning the 15th Most Snow Depth: 65 inches back on Tuesday the 13th and melting!

and northeast. Thus the back door cold front can cut down on extended stays here in the Northeast U.S. and can never be underestimated.
