Garden Trends for 2016

Dr. Leonard Perry

Extension Professor-UVM
Syncing gardening with technology, engaging hands-on
with the local environment and nature, night lighting, garden whimsy, and layered landscapes incorporating various
types of plants, are some of the garden trends for this year.
Each year, the Garden Media Groupa marketing firm for
the home and garden industryidentifies key gardening
trends for the coming season. For 2016 theyve pegged eight
of these, which youll no doubt see reflected in products,
plants, and advertisements.
Just as consumers are syncing their electronic devices,
theyre looking to sync more with nature. This bodes well
for the environment, but has a flip side that may be hard for year, with a twist. Plain containers are being replaced with

Recall and Traceability Workshop

Planned for VT Produce Growers

To help Vermont fruit and vegetable growers better understand produce traceability
systems and develop a recall plan for their
operation, University of Vermont (UVM)
Extensions Center for Sustainable Agriculture
will offer a free Recall and Traceability
Workshop on March 11.
It will be held at the Capitol Plaza Hotel
and Conference Center in Montpelier from 9
a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Participants will receive
lunch and a free copy of a traceability manual.
Registration is required by Feb. 12. To
register online, go to http://recallandtraceabilitywkshp.eventbrite.com. By phone, call
Cheryl Herrick at (802) 656-5459. To request
a disability-related accommodation to participate, please contact Ginger Nickerson at
(802) 505-8189 by Feb. 19.
Growers will hear about the Produce
Traceability Initiative, an industry-led effort
to improve traceability of the produce supply
chain from grower to consumer, including

Heated, Air Conditioned

& Dehumidified

discussion of various traceability systems.

The latter track fruits and vegetables from
their source to retail outlet, helping farmers
improve inventory management and business
planning. For quality issues or concerns about
a food-borne illness outbreak, these systems
ensure quick response from supply chains,
stores and public health agencies to remove
or recall these items.
Workshop attendees also will learn about
the components and legal aspects of recall
plans and participate in exercises based on
actual outbreaks. In addition, they will develop both a crisis management plan and recall
plan for their farm.
Instructors include Diane Ducharme, Good
Agricultural Practices (GAPs) Program coordinator, North Carolina State University and
Agriculture and Technology State University
Cooperative Extension; Ginger Nickerson,
UVM Extension GAPs Program coordinator;
and Hans Estrin, UVM Extension Produce
Safety Accreditation Program coordinator.

February 3, 2016

In the coming months, the Chittenden

County Transportation Authority (CCTA) and
the Green Mountain Transit Agency (GMTA)
will rebrand to become Green Mountain
Transit (GMT). In July 2011, GMTA and
CCTA became one legal entity, which formalized the operating relationship between the
two agencies that had existed since 2003. The
rebrand marks an exciting time and will finalize the last step in becoming one unified
regional agency.
In conjunction with the rebranding effort,
CCTA will roll out a suite of new technologies to improve the customer experience,
starting with a new Automatic Vehicle
Location (AVL) system. AVL will provide
passengers with real-time bus tracking information straight to their cellphones, improving
service reliability and allowing CCTA to
communicate changes more efficiently. This
highly sought after system has been a high
priority for CCTA and its passengers for quite
some time. The ability to move forward with
this project is due, in large part, to funding
provided by the VT Agency of
Transportation.

VTrans has been an incredible partner to

CCTA and all of the communities that it
serves. I think they are as excited about these
improvements as we are, said Karen Walton,
General Manager of CCTA.
On Tuesday, January 19, the CCTA Board
of Commissioners also approved a recommendation from staff to go out to bid for a
mobile ticketing system. A mobile ticketing
app would allow passengers to purchase fare
media directly on their cellphones prior to
taking their bus trip.
This app will provide convenience for the
riders, eliminates the need to carry exact cash
fare, and is one step closer to making CCTA/
GMTA a paperless system.
These passenger amenities are expected to
be implemented during this calendar year
before or in conjunction with the highly
anticipated Downtown Transit Center (DTC)
grand opening.
The new state-of-the-art transit center is
expected to be complete in the fall of 2016.
To track progress on this, and all upcoming
projects, visit our website at CCTAride.org.

Vermont Battery Recycling Program Launches

Call2Recycle, Inc., North Americas largest consumer battery stewardship organization, and the Vermont Agency of
Natural Resources announced the official launch of the statewide program for the responsible recycling of single-use
(primary) batteries. The announcement was made this morning at the Vermont State House.
Effective January 1, 2016, Vermonts first-in-the-nation
legislation requires single-use battery manufacturers to participate in a program that manages the responsible disposal of
batteries sold in the state (Act 139). The legislation leads the
way for a more convenient way for Vermont residents to dispose of their batteries as Vermont residents are now able to
recycle all their household batteries, including AA, AAA, C,
D, among other battery-types, by bringing them to drop-off
locations throughout the state. The program comes at no cost
to the state or to Vermont residents.
Vermont is once again demonstrating its environmental
leadership, said Agency of Natural Resources Secretary Deb
Markowitz. This program makes it easy for all Vermonters to
become product stewards by dramatically increasing their rate
of battery recycling. Dead batteries no longer have to be buried in a landfill or hoarded in junk drawers.

While 70 percent of Vermonters are aware household batteries can be recycled, only 42 percent have actually recycled
their batteries in the past year. In 2015, there were over
650,000 pounds of batteries sold in Vermont, but only 36,000
pounds were collected for recycling. This initiative will simplify battery recycling for Vermont residents, as they will no
longer need to separate single-use batteries from rechargeable
batteries. Accessibility is also an important factor, as Vermont
residents will be able to bring their spent batteries to over 100
convenient drop-off sites, including retailers, municipalities,

The event also signaled the launch of Call2Recycles
statewide school battery recycling challenge, a contest that
seeks to increase awareness of battery recycling among students in Vermont. Andrew Sirjord, Chairman of Call2Recycle,
Inc. said: As the stewardship program approved by Vermont
we are excited to continue our important work in Vermont
through an expanded program. We can all contribute and
help give a new life to batteries. And he continued: The
behavior that motivates battery recycling starts at home and
our youth can play a key role in this effort, which is why we
are promoting initiatives such as the Vermont School Battery

Central Vermont New Directions

Coalition Heads to CADCAs
National Leadership Forum

Representatives from Vermont are headed to the Washington,

D.C. area to join more than 2,500 substance abuse prevention
specialists and advocates from throughout the country for
Community Anti-Drug Coalitions of Americas (CADCA)
26th Annual National Leadership Forum.
We are so excited to be able to spend several days with
other similar organizations from across the country, learning
and honing our prevention skills so our community can be a
better place, one that doesnt suffer from the harms of drug
and alcohol abuse, said Ann Gilbert, Director of Central
Vermont New Directions Coalition (CVNDC). We plan to
come back reenergized with new strategies and information to
tackle drug use in the Montpelier area and throughout
Washington County.
Prevention Works VT and Vermont Association for Mental
Health and Addiction Recovery (VAMHAR) will also be part
of this delegation.
CADCAs forum will cover a wide range of topics everything from how to prevent prescription drug abuse and the
abuse of synthetic drugs and marijuana to how to create
tobacco-free environments and develop policies to reduce
underage and excessive drinking.
The coalition will hear from several federal leaders including Michael Botticelli, Director, Office of National Drug
Control Policy and Congressman Hal Rogers (R-KY), who
will receive CADCAs National Leadership Award at the
event.
CVNDC has recently impacted the community by sponsoring a Prevention Presentation Series and helping to organize
Prevention Awareness Day at the State House. January topics
included a screening and panel discussion of The Hungry Heart
documentary film and bringing Dr. Bertha Madras,
Psychobiologist from Harvard Medical School, to Vermont for
three presentations on research linking cannabis and opiates
and the unintended consequences of marijuana legalization.
Upcoming events, which are free and open to the public,
include The Opiate Effect with Skip Gates, on Wednesday,
February 10 at 6:30 p.m. at U-32 auditorium. Skip shares a
short film and speaks about the impact his family experienced
as a result of his sons sudden death from a heroin overdose
during his junior year at UVM. Another film, The Other Side
of Cannabis, will be followed by a panel discussion on
Tuesday, February 16 at 6:30 pm at Montpelier High School
auditorium. Coming soon, is Guiding Good Choices, a fiveweek parent education class which will be held at the Aldrich
Public Library in Barre on March 15 through April 12 from
6-8pm. Registration is required by contacting 223-4949 or
agilbert@cvndc.org.

Recycling Challenge.
Vermont schools, grades 5 and 6, can go to www.call2recycle.org/vermont and sign up before National Battery Day,
February 18. All participant schools will enter to collect the
most batteries and the school that can collect the most batteries (in pounds) per student will be rewarded with a special
celebration.
Its not that often that I am presented with the opportunity
to introduce a bill that is so clearly a win-win-win a win
for the environment, for the people of Vermont, and for the
manufacturers of what has become an essential product in our
daily lives, to demonstrate good product stewardship in
action, said Representative Tony Klein, chair of the House
Natural Resources and Energy committee. With the help of
students like those here today, we can make a real difference
in protecting Vermonts environment.

OPEN Every Day from 8:30AM-5:00PM

In the midst of trying to clean up the complications from

last years education reform bill several legislators took time
to promote a new bill. H.656 is sponsored by 35 House
Democrats and Progressives and brings all Vermont homeowners under the income sensitivity structure used by twothirds of the state today.
Sponsors say this proposal will deliver $82 million in property tax relief, something legislators acknowledge Vermonters
have been clamoring for. They do that by increasing the tax
for those at the high-end of the economic spectrum.
There is something wrong when our current system has
high-income Vermonters paying under 0.5% of their income
to support schools while most Vermonters are paying
nearly 3%, said Rep. Chris Pearson (P-Burlington) the
bills lead sponsor.
We believe we have a way to make our school funding
more equitable and, at the same time, give most Vermonters
a break on their property taxes, said Sen. Anthony Pollina
(P/D-Washington) who filed a similar bill, S.175 in the
State Senate.
Legislators say this change holds three major benefits. The
proposal eliminates the so-called cliff that hits households
whose income climbs over the $90,000 threshold where
income-sensitivity currently stops. This dynamic can mean an
increase of $5,000 gets largely eaten by tax bills after a household slips above the income sensitivity line.
The proposal would also benefit low and middle-income
Vermonters who live on more than two acres. These taxpayers
would save over $40 million since they no longer need to pay
one rate for their home site and another for their property over
and above their two-acre home site.
The remaining $40 million raised through this proposal
allows everyones rates to drop. Supporters point out this
amounts to a 19% decrease in property taxes for most of
the state.

Collective Artist Gallery in Downtown Montpelier

Opens New Show Feb. 5 at The Front

Montpeliers newest gallery will celebrate

the opening of its latest exhibition of recent
works by sixteen local artists. The capital
citys only collectively run artist gallery, The
Front will be open to the public from 4 to 8
p.m. on Friday, Feb. 5, during Montpeliers
Art Walk.
Now in its ninth month, The Front is the
latest iteration of an artistic space that has
weathered a series of transitions in the past
two years. Starting in February 2013, the
storefront at 6 Barre Street was the studio and
public display space of The Fronts founding
artist member Glen Coburn Hutcheson, who
showed portrait drawings, sculpture and
paintings at the front of the room while creating new work in the back.
Several studio partners soon joined him,
including Shamus Langlois and Abigail
Feldman. Taking charge of the display section, gallery directors Langlois and Feldman
dubbed the space gallery SIX, spearheading a
series of well-received exhibitions and events.
The two departed in April 2015, officially
closing the doors of gallery SIX. Under
Hutchesons direction, a new group of local
artists banded together to keep 6 Barre Street
open, launching The Front in May 2015.
Members share the monetary, administrative,
and staffing duties of keeping the gallery
open during weekend hours, special events,
and by appointment.
Artists want exposure and interactionat

least some artists, sometimes, said Hutcheson

about the gallery. We hope The Front can
provide those functions, and give local artists
a dedicated space to show off and work
together. Located less than one block away
from The Drawing Board and the Savoy
Theatre, The Front houses and promotes the
work of sixteen artist members in a bustling
downtown that has been lacking spaces for
visual arts.
For a town full of artists, Montpelier is
empty of galleries. It felt like a waste for a
visible downtown venue to be empty when
we could fill it.
The collectives mission is to both support
its individual members and provide rich artistic experiences for the larger community.
We all want what is best for each other, as
well as the gallery. Our group is personal,
meaning we all work better when we work
closely together, founding member Ellen
Chaney said. We constantly have the community in mind, with everything we do.
The upcoming show will feature recent or
new works by the gallerys members that
include sculptors Janet Van Fleet, John
Matusz, Jesse Cooper, Hasso Ewing, Clara
Kazarov, and Chris Jeffrey, painters Alana
LaPoint, Glen Coburn Hutcheson, James
Secor, Michelle Lesnak, Alice Dodge, and
Melora Kennedy, design/builder Ben Cheney,
photographer Maayan Kasimov, and collage
artists Deluxe Unlimited and Hannah Morris.

Chandler Announces Auditions for

The Next Generation

Chandler will hold auditions for the eighth

annual Next Generation performance on
Sunday, April 10. Auditions are open to area
high school age students age thirteen and up
who are seriously studying classical music of
all genres - instrumental, ensemble, or vocal,
as soloists or on groups. The concert will be
presented on Friday evening, May 13 at 7:30
p.m. at Chandler Music Hall in Randolph.
Inspired by the successful 2007 performance at Chandler of National Public Radios
youth showcase, From the Top, presenters at
Chandler created a look-alike program called
The Next Generation. For the past seven
seasons, dozens of talented teenagers from
the Champlain Valley, Central Vermont, and
the Upper Valley have made this event an
annual smash hit in Randolph, performing
classical music as pianists, vocalists, instrumental soloists, and in chamber ensembles.
Students should come prepared to audition
the piece they would perform on May 13. In
the interest of providing a performance opportunity for as many qualified students as possible, works should not exceed five or six

minutes in duration. Instrumentalists and

vocal soloists need to provide their own
accompanist and page turner. The Steinway
concert grand is available, and the auditions
and performance will take place on Chandlers
main stage. A modest production fee will be
charged for those students chosen to perform.
The deadline for audition application is April
1st.
Chandler Music Hall is appreciated not
only as a venue for fine performances, but
also as a community arts organization that is
valued for the performance and arts education
opportunities it provides area students. Its
Mini Mud Shows and 4th of July Musicals
have given scores of students an opportunity
to perform. This newer venture celebrates
young students exceptional talent in the area
of classical music and their inspiring dedication to its pursuit and development.
Please contact Janet Watton, Chandler
Board President, for more information about
this performance or to schedule an audition.
She can be reached at janet@chandler-arts.

In addition to acknowledging the successes
that The Chamber accomplished in 2015, we
will be focusing in on a topic of local concern, The 1% Sting: Facts and Impacts of
Local Option Taxes
Moderated by Lindel James, the program
will feature a presentation by George Malek
on the real costs and hidden affects that Local
Option Taxes have on individuals and businesses. A reactor panel including Jeff Blow
from Jet Service Envelope Company in
Berlin, Brian Cain from the Capitol Plaza
Hotel in Montpelier, Greg Isabelle of Barre
Electric & Lighting and Mike Woodfield
from First in Fitness in Berlin and Montpelier
will present their views on Local Option
Taxes.
The Chamber has been a vehement opponent of increasing taxes through the use of
Local Option Taxes and has worked tirelessly
in the past to help to defeat them.
Municipalities offer somewhat vague reasons for the Local Option Tax. Some call for

it to be used for property tax relief without

specifying whether or not all of the Local
Option Tax will go to property tax relief.
Some promise that it will be used for capital
improvements or purchases without announcing what the project or purchase is. Some call
for the Local Option Tax without specifying
any use at all.
Proponents claim that Local Option Taxes
do not hurt local economies. In reality they
do. The value of the money is immediately
taken out of the local economy as is the case
with all tax increases. Any reduction in property tax goes to the benefit of the homeowner;
renters are very unlikely to see any reduction
in their monthly rent. Those with Circuit
Breaker protection in their property taxes will
not see any reduction in their tax payments.
Consumer purchasing power is reduced as a
result.
A Local Option Tax is a tax increase that
hurts local economies. Visitors have options
on where they can go and spend their money.
Increased costs make consumers make hard
decisions on where they will go to spend their
money. The same is true for retail purchases.
Buyers have options on where they will spend
their money. Internet purchases are not taxed
and are easier to make than going to a store.
Bricks and mortar operations have enough of
a challenge without local governments adding
to their costs in the form of a new tax. Higher
costs also give buyers a reason to drive to
neighboring states where the taxes are lower
or non-existent.

Five Steps to Fiscal Fitness: KeyBank

Celebrates Financial Wellness Month

Financial wellness like physical fitness

doesnt happen overnight. To be financially well is to be confident that everyday
financial choices create financial flexibility to
manage unexpected financial challenges and
to make the most of financial opportunity.
Financial wellness, like physical fitness,
isnt simply a matter of what you do, said
Don Baker, President, Vermont Market,
KeyBank. Baker added, Its what you do
every day that matters. Financial wellness
requires consistent and continuous activity.
But the payoff for financial wellness, just like
the payoff for physical fitness, is well worth
the effort.
In celebration of Financial Wellness Month,
KeyBank offers the following five steps
toward becoming financially well:
1. Pay yourself. Nearly two-thirds of
Americans dont maintain adequate savings
to pay for an unexpected $1,000 expense.
Yes, its important to pay down credit card
debt. But tapping savings rather than an
interest-bearing credit card to pay for unanticipated costs is less expensive in the long
run.
2. Pay others, meaning credit card issuers,
and pay them on time. Paying credit card bills

Personal Umbrella Insurance Policy in Action

To better understand how a personal

umbrella policy works, heres an example. If
youre at fault in a car accident that injures
another driver, your regular automobile insurance will cover the other driver up to the limit
you selected, say $100,000 as an example. But
what happens if that limit is not enough to
cover the other drivers injuries?
If the other drivers injuries are severe, they
may require benefits beyond the $100,000
limit of your policy. In this case, they could
sue you for the difference, which means your
personal assets would be at stake. This could
be a small amount or a large amount. Imagine
if that injured driver were a surgeon or another high-earning professional. What if the
accident you caused resulted in an injury that
kept them from doing his or her job for six
months? Suddenly, they are suing you for $1
million to cover the six months they are away
from work.
Your automobile policy covers the initial
$100,000, but where would you come up with
the remaining $900,000? A personal umbrella
policy can cover the additional costs when
your insurance isnt enough. The policy could
provide the additional coverage you need so
that you dont get stuck trying to pay the
remaining balance yourself. This extra policy
could protect your bank account, home, and
other personal property

on time protects your credit score. Earn bonus

points for paying extra the required minimum AND that months charges, including
interest.
3. Watch your wallet. Know where your
money is going. Look for one or two small
but regular expenses that you can live without. Boost your emergency fund with the
money saved.
4. Help your employer help you. If your
company matches up to a certain percent of
your 401(K) contribution, make that match.
Company offers automatic health savings
account deductions? Participating in a HSA
can help meet the cost of insurance deductibles and unexpected medical costs. Plus,
HSA contributions accumulate from year to
year, and might come in handy for medical
expenses in retirement.
5. Be consistent. Base all financial decisions even the small ones on how the
choice today affects financial wellness tomorrow.

Donald George Milne

Donald George Milne, 81, of Washington,

Vermont died peacefully on January 24,
2016. Don had been diagnosed with
advanced metastatic cancer three weeks
ago.
The son of Henry and Catharine
(Fraher) Milne, Don was born the second
of four children in Barre, Vermont on
July 16, 1934. Don met Marion Carson
on July 3, 1954 in Lake George, New
York. They had their first date the next
day and were married on March 15, 1957. Marion was the one
romantic love of his life. They were partners in marriage,
parenting, grand-parenting, business, public service, politics,
and all that they loved about life and each other. Marion predeceased him in August of 2014.
Don is survived by three of his children: Scott Milne of
Pomfret, Vermont; Chris Milne and his wife Marjorie of
Dover, Massachusetts; and Cathy Frey and her husband Scott
Frey, of Barre, Vermont; and daughter-in-law Deborah Milne
of White River Junction, Vermont. A son Keith Milne predeceased him in 1971. He had eight grandchildren: Keith Milne,
Elise Milne, Nicole Frey, Jane Milne, Alex Frey, Lee Milne,
Claire Milne, and George Milne.
He leaves a sister and brother-in-law, Mary Jean and Gus
Mastro, brother John Milne, and sisters-in-law Kay Milne,
Agnes Eller, Jean DeFrees and Irene Hinek. He is predeceased
by his brother Ted Milne and in-laws, Harry and Anne Carson,
Francis and Julia West, Frank and Pauline Seiferheld, Bill
Eller, Gene De Frees, Robert Hinek, and Marions siblings
who died as children; William, Charles, Billy, John, and
Marion Carson. Don also leaves many nieces and nephews,
and his yellow lab, Vince.
Don was born and raised in Barre. As a child he spent a lot
of time working in the gardens with his great-grandfather,
George Riddle of Monymusk, Scotland, at the home of his
grandmotherJennie Milnein North Barre. He paid his
way through Boston University with summer jobs in Lake
Morey and Lake George, and drove a cab and managed a
parking lot during the school year. While attending New York
Law School he was a full-time employee of Royal Globe
Insurance.
Don began working in the Vermont House of Representatives
Clerks Office with Clerk Dale Brooks and assistant Clerk
Bob Picher in 1960. He was elected Clerk of the House of
Representatives in 1993, and was unanimously re-elected
every legislative session until his retirement in October of last
year. Don Milne worked with thousands of Vermont Legislators
in his roles in the House and Senate over the past fifty-five
years. These were experiences and relationships he cherished.
According to Vermont Historian Paul Gillies, it is likely that
Don worked with more citizen legislators as a legislative
Clerk than any person in Vermonts History. Don loved
Vermont and he cherished our Legislature. He appreciated the
good fortune he had to be a part of it for so long.
Earlier in his career Don owned his own Law office in
Barre and expanded with a second office in Chelsea. Later, he
worked for many years in the Law firm of Richard E. Davis
in Barre. He respected Richard Davis and the opportunity
association with his firm afforded Don and his family.
In 1975, he co-founded Milne Travel, and worked behind
the scenes as a book-keeper, officer, and advisor until his
death.
Don served his home town of Washington Vermont in many
capacities over the years, and was the longest serving
Selectboard member in the history of the town at the time of
his death. March of 2016 will be the first Washington,
Vermont Town Meeting without Don on the ballot in several
decades. He and Marion were recognized by their town as
Citizens of the Year in 2010.
Don Milne was a tireless public servant and citizen. He was
co-founder of the Barre Elks Senior Citizen dinnerswhich
have served over 50,000 meals, he is a former president of the
board of the Vermont League of Cities and Towns, former
board member and president of Green Mountain Economic
Development Council Board, former president of Vermont
Young Republicans, former Barre City Grand Juror, and former Vermont Legislatorserving in a two-member district
with future House Speaker, Walter Peanut Kennedy.
Don was a confident, humble, hard-working, and nonjudgmental person. He led not with words, but by a great
example of the possibilities of a life well lived.
Friends may call at the Hooker and Whitcomb Funeral
Home, 7 Academy Street, Barre on Friday from 5:00 8:00
p.m. His funeral and life celebration was held Saturday,
January 30, 2016 at 11:00 a.m. in the First Presbyterian
Church, 19 Seminary Street, Barre.

A New Prescription for Vermonters Health

Together, we are writing

a new prescription for the
health of Vermonters: pay
health care providers for
keeping people healthy
instead of just treating
them when they are sick.
This is a change the
University of Vermont
Health Network is committed to making. We
recently set a goal of having 80 percent of our revenue tied to the overall
health and wellness of our
patients by 2018, rather
than being paid for every
test or procedure we perform or by our hospital admissions. Right now, less than 15
percent of UVM Medical Centers revenue comes from payment arrangements tied to the quality, not the quantity, of care
provided, so this represents a big change.
We unveiled our new 80 percent goal when UVM Health
Network presented its budget to the Green Mountain Care
Board (GMCB) last summer, and we will be providing periodic, transparent updates to the GMCB as we move toward
that goal.
How will this work? It means we will agree to get paid a
fixed dollar amount to take care of our patients. If we exceed
that dollar amount, the difference is on us: we will need to
absorb the loss. We will also need to meet robust quality standards to ensure that patients are getting the care they need in
order to collect our reimbursement.
So what will this reform look like to patients? Patients and
families should feel like they are partners with their providers
in making decisions about their care. They should also see
other changes that include:
more reminders from their primary care provider about
screenings and vaccinations and wellness check-ups;
more support from their providers to help them be successful in following treatment plans;
more support for managing their chronic illnesses to
reduce the need for hospital admissions and trips to the emergency department;
a more holistic approach to care by providers who will
treat not just one symptom or illness, but the whole person;
smoother transitions between the different providers
involved in their care; and
very importantly, greater focus on non-medical barriers to
care that many patients experience, including housing challenges, transportation needs, and food insecurity.
There are many factors outside of a hospitals control that
impact our patients health. Hospitals are just one part of the
health care continuum; what happens outside of our walls
makes all the difference to health and wellness.
Hospitals must work together with our home- and community-based health care colleagues to keep people well. In

Chittenden County, that includes all of the good work being

done by the Visiting Nurse Association, the Champlain Valley
Agency on Aging, the Howard Center, COTS, the Champlain
Housing Trust, the Vermont Department of Health, Cathedral
Square, United Way and many other social and community
service agencies.
The urgency regarding health care reform is high because
the status quo is no longer an option. Health care costs too
much, and the renewed focus from our political leaders at
both the state and national levels on keeping costs down has
been a game changer for all of us.
A clear example of the pressing need for collaboration
and one in which weve made progress is the opiate addiction crisis. Over the past year, many more Vermonters are
accessing treatment for their addiction through clinics at the
Howard Center and the UVM Medical Center, or through
their primary care providers, thanks to the shared efforts of
the City of Burlington, the State of Vermont, the Chittenden
County States Attorneys Office, the Howard Center, the
Community Health Centers of Burlington, the UVM College
of Medicine and the UVM Medical Center. Together, we are
bringing our collective resources to bear on this issue, and
together, I am confident that we will meet the need of
Vermonters struggling with this difficult disease.
Not only is this the best way of caring for our patients, but
we need to make these kinds of changes if we are to be financially accountable take risk for the health of our communities. The costs of complications from a single case of Hepatitis
C or HIV from needle use can cover treatment for dozens of
patients accessing suboxone or buprenorphine.
As we turn the corner into 2016, we are excited to take an
aggressive approach to health care reform, and we are also
excited to collaborate with our many community partners in
new and different ways to meet the mission we all have:
improving the health of the people we serve. It is simply the
right thing to do, and the best way to reform our health care

For Easier Weight Loss,

Outsmart Distracted Dining

BY MICHAEL ROIZEN, M.D., AND MEHMET OZ, M.D.

ver look at your empty plate
and wonder, Huh, where did
that sandwich (or cake ... or spaghetti and meatballs) go? New
research from the University of
Utah reveals that most of you now
spend 50 percent of your eating
time focused on something other
than the food in front of you!
Researchers identified stealthy distractions that lead to food
choices and weight gain that youll regret.
So heres a better idea: Adopt mindful eating habits thatll
help you turn good intentions (Ill eat healthy tomorrow!
Ill start losing weight next week!) into reality today. Youll
savor every bite, sip and spoonful guilt-free, and love the
results.
Create a peaceful environment. Turn off the TV. Turn down
the music! In a recent University of Illinois study, families
that ate dinner while a loud vacuum cleaner roared in the next
room made loads of mealtime mistakes. Parents ate more
cookies and drank more diet sodas, which studies show raise
risk for weight gain and blood-sugar-control problems. And
they paid less attention to their children. Mindful change:
Youll eat healthier in a quiet setting, so be a role model for
good eating and connect more with your family. These factors
will help you and your kids make healthier food choices and
avoid weight gain in the future.
Allow ample time to eat. Slow down when you dine in
mixed company! In a recent study from our friends at Cornell
Universitys Food & Brand Lab, guys devoured 92 percent
more pizza when their lunch partners included women. And
women who lunched with men said they felt rushed and overate as a result. The guys also ate 86 percent more salad -- a
great choice provided you go with a drizzle of extra-virgin
olive oil and balsamic vinegar. Mindful change: Slow eating
gives your brain and body time to register that youre full.
Youll feel more satisfied with fewer calories.
Avoid being influenced by where you eat or your dining
companions appearance. Remind yourself about your eating
goals before you order in a restaurant or serve yourself at
home. In another revealing study, people who had a meal with
an overweight dining partner overate high-calorie foods and
skimped on healthy foods even when their dining partner
made healthy choices. Other studies have found that folks
who are overweight (thats almost 70 percent of you) tend to
overeat when dining away from home. Mindful change: Stick
with your eating plan! Easy system: Fill half your plate with
produce (largely veggies other than potatoes), one-fourth with
whole grains and the rest with lean protein.
Dont drive and dine. Pull over! Yup, 86 percent of drivers
in one national survey admitted to noshing while driving. That
doubles your odds for a crash and increases the chances that
youll dig into, and scarcely notice, that large order of fries,
burger and a shake you just picked up. Youll feel less satisfied, and that drive-through doughnut shop up ahead will start
lookin real good. Mindful change: If youve gotta eat on the
road, order a healthy sandwich or salad from a deli or convenience store. Pair it with fruit and a bottle of water, tea or
coffee. Find a safe and attractive place to stop (like a local
park or the parking lot of a church or library), turn off the car
and focus on your meal. Add a 10-15 minute stroll, then continue your drive refreshed and full.
Keep your counters clear of temptations. Out of sight, out
of mouth. Its no surprise that people who keep soda and
snacks out on the kitchen counter weigh more than those
whose easy-to-grab snack is fruit. But did you know breakfast
cereal can be a weight-gain culprit, too? Munching handfuls
when youre bored or hungry can add up! Mindful change: Set
yourself up for healthy-eating success by limiting counter
foods to delicious, ready-to-eat fruit and nuts.

Isolated Elderly

The news coming out of

Maine was beyond sad: An
elderly woman was found dead
in her home, and shed been
dead for two years.
Getting beyond the shock of that is difficult. We ask: How
could something like that happen? How could no one notice the
disappearance of another human being, a neighbor?
When the former teacher first moved to her rural property
shed been friendly with others, but later she became reclusive.
Because being alone seemed to be her preference, neighbors
didnt bother her.
The police had been called a few times to do a wellness
check, but when the door wasnt answered, they were unable to
press the issue. Eventually, because taxes went unpaid and
foreclosure was imminent, the police did break in and discovered the woman.
How many of us heard this story on the news and said, That
could be me? How many of us, because we dont have nearby
family or friends who are still living, could be in that same
situation?
We need to explore our resources now, before its too late,
and set up a system whereby we wont be left unnoticed for
long periods of time, even as we guard our privacy.
The best way to ensure senior safety is with a phone-in program, where seniors are called every morning or have to call in
to say theyre OK. Its available in many localities. For very
private people, this non-intrusive program can be a lifesaver. If
no one answers the phone, a contact or the police will be
called.
Short of that, we can arrange with a neighbor that well open
a certain window curtain every morning. Or well swap phone
calls. Or well collect the newspaper off the porch.
Think about these things now, and put something into
practice. (c) 2016 King Features Synd., Inc.

cost are those who died on both sides. The dollars mean nothing. Where the dollars do come into play are the dollars to
care for those who come home broken and sick and those who
come home in a box.
How do we get these dollars, from the American tax payers? Congress then sets dollar amounts to pay for war, to pay
for those who come home in a box, plus the wounded. What
about those who are sick and broken! Now we have a new set
of rules for those who fought the war and lived.
Legislative Bills must be introduced and dollar amounts
agreed on to pay for the needs of the sick and broken who
came home alive. It can take years and more legislation. In the
meantime these sick and broken war veterans die off one by
one with no resolve from our government who sent them to
war. Many get little to no health care and no compensation. A
perfect example is the Vietnam War. Our War Of Shame.
I have often wondered, what if our Legislators were sent to
war and had to defend themselves just like our troops on land,
sailors at sea and airmen in the sky. A novel thought indeed!

VietnamOur War Of Shame

Editor,
Since our elected U.S. Legislators, Congress and Senate do
not seem to care about our Vietnam War Veterans who are sick
from the herbicide Agent Orange Dioxin. I can say I am not
proud of our government in the manner in which our veterans
are treated. However we did our job and did not question our
orders. We believed the Vietnam War was to free a Country
from communistic oppression. This is what America is about,
Freedom.
Freedom is not free, it is costly in lives and dollars. There
is no dollar amount I know of that can replace a life. The real

Wrist-Watches and Cracker Jack

By G. E. Shuman

few weeks ago I was standing in

our kitchen, and happened to notice something about my daughter,
when I saw her sitting on the couch in the
next room. You dont wear a wrist-watch,
huh Em? I remarked.
I dont wear a what? Emily asked back.
A wrist-watch. I repeated.
Dad, they dont call them wrist-watches anymore. Its just
a watch, and, no, I dont wear one.
Why not? Dont you have one? I
asked, in honest ignorance of her point.
I dont NEED one. Everyone always
has their phone in their hand, and the
time is right here. Emily responded,
holding up the electronic appendage
which seems to be permanently attached
to her palm.
Oh. Yeah. Was my only reply,
as I was, once again, technologically
trounced back into the old realization
that mine is not exactly the cutting-edge
generation anymore. I looked at my left
wrist, and at my watch... my WRISTwatch, wondering if I will see the day when old people like
myself are actually laughed at for wearing one of these things.
I suddenly felt like I was carrying around a spittoon and a
buggy whip instead of a watch. Maybe, just maybe, that day
was already here.
It may have been that very same day, or perhaps a day or
so later, that I noticed (I guess Im noticing things lately, in
my declining days.) something familiar and somehow exciting
from my own childhood. My wife has recently taken to buying
boxes of Cracker Jack, to take to work with her, as a snack.
And, that day, right in front of me on a small round table in
our kitchen, lay an actual Cracker Jack prize! Do you remember those? For generations, literally, Cracker Jack has proudly,
(and rightly so) announced A prize in every box! ON every
box of their product. I remember vividly, as a child, ripping
the entire top off my Cracker Jack boxes and squeezing the
sides to see if I could see that cherished, tea-bag sized white
envelope, that I knew was buried somewhere among the caramel corn and peanuts. If I saw the prize I would immediately
dump out enough of the Cracker Jack to get my ngers far

enough into the box to snag the prize and drag it out. (Tell me
you have never done that.) Now, everyone knows, and knew
then, that whatever prize was inside the envelope had no great
value. There was always a blue-ink printed joke to read on the
outside, and something less than magical on the inside of that
little piece of sealed paper. To me, as a child, making fun of
whatever the little plastic something was that was inside was
half of the fun. Do you remember people saying things like:
Whered ya get the ring... a box of Cracker Jack?
I thought of all of this, as I picked up and looked over that
genuine Cracker Jack prize envelope.
The fact that it was still unopened
proved to be too much for me to
resist. For the rst time in years, I
opened a Cracker Jack prize, and, for
the rst time ever, I was quite disappointed. In an effort to please the kids
of today, even this wonderful moment
from the past has changed. Rather
than some chintzy ring or other cheap
plastic thing, inside the envelope
there was only a note. The note said
this: Now you can download fun,
authentic Cracker Jack prizes to your
smart phone at:, with a website address following. In other
words, at least to me, the prize was... well... nothing. To me,
the feeling was the same as when someone gives you a lottery
ticket for your birthday. What did they really give you? Nothing. Frankly, I would rather have had a dumb toy than a stupid
app. from that box of Cracker Jack.
I recently read an article in which the author lamented that:
Modern technology is taking away all of our stuff. That we
no longer need CDs to play our music, or DVDs to play our
movies, were his main points. Some people now take virtual
vacations, (Gee, those must be fun.) and others completely
lose themselves in games which require no cards, game
boards, game pieces, or even other players. I think that todays kids are actually missing out on a few REAL things,
as they willingly view virtual ones, displayed on small glass
screens. One of those real things that they are missing out on is
the proud feeling of a shiny new watch wrapped around your
wrist; another is the joy of holding, instead of an expensive
phone, a cheap and cherished Cracker Jack toy, right in the
palm of your hand.

Reisss Pieces
By Judy Reiss

very now and then I hear about

something that I think is so important to share with you that
I am sorry you might think that I am
making it up! However, this is not only
true, it is actually something that has
happened and is happening to my best
friends daughter. I told her that I was going to write and tell
you all about her problem, but she asked me not to mention the
name of the company until it was over, if ever! And so I wont
tell you the name of the company this week but I assure you
that when this whole episode is over, I will.
The main reason I am so anxious to share this with you is
to warn you what can happen. My friends daughter, who is
the same age as my son Tobi (49), woke up one morming with
something feeling strange on her back and arm. And she immediately checked and found a couple of strange looking little
tiny bugs biting her. And after checking found that the bugs
were bed bugs. Now before I tell you the rest of the story,
it is important I tell you she is a real neat freak! Her house is
so clean you could probably lick her floors. So now the saga
begins.
After really freaking out, she called this unnamed company
and made an appointment to hire them to get rid of the bugs
and completely exterminate her house.
So, the company sent one of their employees and realy
worked at getting rid of those hideous bugs. Fortunately, they
were sure they were just in the bedroom, so (lets call her Jane)
and Jeff moved into the living room and sealed off the bedroom. But, of course, the bugs also must have enjoyed what
was done because they were still there after two cleanings. So,
Jane and Jeff tried to figure out where the bugs came from and
what they could do to get rid of them at the same time as the
big company continued their extermination. Well, they found
that the new bed that had been given to them by a friend actually brought a million bugs and their children and eggs into the
house. And they were so horrified that they threw the bed outside and burned it right into nothing but ash. Unfortunately,
Jeff had spent hours making this the most beautiful bed you
ever saw. But I guess the bugs thought so, too. That this bed

Senate Report:

had been outside through a cold Maine winter didnt bother

the bugs at all. But now, hopefully, they were all burned to ash
with the beautiful bed!
Wrong. The bugs were not bothered at all and neither were
they bothered about the professional extermination process,
which went on for several weeks. And Jeff and Jane called
and called and called, begging for relief from this scourge.
Now I have to share with you that they first saw the first bugs
about the first week of November. And they have paid a tremendous amount of money as well as worked amazingly hard
themselves to rid their bedroom of the historically hideous
bed bug. I am writing this on January 18th and to date, they
havent been bug free yet! The other day they had begged and
threatened the company to send someone who might be able to
help and to their surprise the guy who came was someone they
knew. And he shared with them that what had been done by
this national company wasnt really enough. Can you imagine? So, he did a huge cleaning himself. Oh and he found a
whole nest of bugs in a wooden framed picture above where
the bed had been!
So, I am sharing this hideous story with you to let you know
that bed bugs are not just a funny bug like a tick that you crush
and they are gone. I know that I never knew that to get rid of
bed bugs is a major operation. And I also didnt know that
to hire a professional organization doesnt guarantee anything
except it will cost a small fortune.
You need to be sure that if and when you travel, you dont
stay anywhere that bed bugs live, which can mean any hotel.
And if you know someone who has bed bugs, be sure you stay
away. It is probably interesting to know that bed bugs have
been with us since the middle ages and probably before. When
I was little, my father always used to say Dont let the bed
bugs bite when I went to bed and I always thought it was just
a silly saying. So, be careful and aware because none of us
has that kind of money to spent trying to get rid of a bug that
is probably way over 1,000 years old!
And keep posted. Very soon, I hope, I will let you know the
name of the national company who takes your money but not
your bed bugs.

The Founding of Calais

By Senator Bill Doyle

came to build a mill. Wheelock and other family members set

out for Calais with a wagon, two yoke of oxen, provisions
and tools. The Wheelocks found the roads almost impassable
and had to leave their wagon in Williamstown. They took the
necessary provisions on sled, cutting their way through the
country. After two days and two nights in the woods, they arrived at Colonel Jacob Davisons log hut in Montpelier, where
they left their oxen to graze
upon the wild grass, leaks
and shrubbery with which
the land abounded, and
proceeded to Calais.
The first grist mill and
saw mill were built in Calais in 1793, and shortly
thereafter, wool was carded. In addition, clocks and
bells were manufactured,
and shortly thereafter, axles
and scythes. In 1812, Calais had its first distillery. At
one time, there were seven
distillers doing a good
business. Peter Wheelock
was the first person who
represented Calais in the legislature. The first physician for the
town came in 1800.
The first post office was opened in 1816 in Maple Corners.
The second office was located at East Calais in 1830. The third
post office was opened in 1870, and was known as Number 10,
the number given a school district. This post office closed in
1954. The fourth post office is in the village of Adamant.
A church was completed in 1825 and was owned by six religious societies. The use of the building was apportioned on
the basis of financial interest. According to Calais historian
Dorman Kent, the first apportionment was in 1828 when the
Baptists had use of the church for 10 Sundays, the Universalists for 20, Congregationalists for 9, the Christians for 6, the
Free Will Baptists for 4, and the Methodists for 3.

alais was chartered by the state

of Vermont on August 15, 1781.
There were 64 grantees and the
town has six miles on each side, or 36 square miles.
In addition to the grantees, there were several other uses of
the land. Lots were reserved for a seminary or college, a county grammar school, for the home of a minister of the gospel,
for the worship of god, and a
tract of land for an English
school or schools.
Under the charter, each
grantee was required to build
a house at least 18 feet square
and plan to cultivate five
acres of land. If the grantee
wasnt able to do this, he lost
the right to the land and it
reverted back to the state of
Vermont. In addition, all pine
timber suitable for a navy
was reserved for the state. The
charter was signed by Governor Thomas Chittenden.
One of the key proprietors
was Colonel Jacob Davis,
who felt that the new republic should have interesting place
names. In the 1780s, there was a great enthusiasm for France
because that country was our ally during the Revolutionary
Wary and played a key role in American independence. Calais
itself was a well-known French port in northern France. One
day earlier, Vermont chartered the town of Montpelier to Davis
and others. Davis named Montpelier for the French city Montpellier in southern France.
The only other Calais in the United States is in Maine. Oddly enough, Calais in Maine is also in Washington County of
that state.
Calais wasnt settled until early in 1787, the same year that
the founders of our country met in Philadelphia to write a new
Constitution. In that year for the key founders, Peter Wheelock

Aging with
race

ve received several
inquiries about how to
handle specific situations
involving someone with a
dementia illness, so this column is all about helpful strategies/tips for living with a
loved one who has some
form
of
dementia/
Alzheimers. How we communicate is vastly different
from what we are used to
doing and no two cases are
exactly the same. Being reasonable, rational and logical
doesnt work with these illnesses. A long explanation in
any situation will just confuse and upset your loved
one; using simple sentences
about what is happening
works best. The brain no longer has the ability to respond to logical arguments/statements and arguing will only cause distress for
both of you. Ive assembled helpful information from several sources and come up with
this list of suggestions to guide you through
some common situations.
Therapeutic lying (fiblets) can reduce
stress and anxiety. People tend to be meticulously honest about most everything pertaining to caring for a loved one. This approach
when used with someone who has dementia
will lead to distress for both of you.
Someone with dementia doesnt need to
be grounded in reality. Reminding someone
of important events such as the passing of
loved ones will only cause pain so try redirecting the conversation. Instead try asking
about the person he/she asked about.
Making agreements with your loved one
wont work. In the early stages of dementia,
leaving reminder notes, etc. can sometimes
help but as the disease progresses you will
need to change your methods.
Limit the number of choices your loved
one has to make. If your loved one cant
decide what to wear, lessen the choices to one
or two outfits and hang them on the closet
door or lay them on the dresser. Instead of
asking someone if theyre hungry or ready
for dinner, simply tell them when dinner is
ready and walk with them to the table.
Often its easier/quicker for us to do
something for a loved one that will allow
them to do it themselves and there are pros
and cons to this.
I hope youll find these few scenarios helpful as you navigate these always changing
times in your role of caregiving. There are
numerous other situations you will find yourself working through and resources available
to help you through them. If youre someone
who uses the internet, there are many sites
that offer information and support; listed

below are a couple of sites I found to be very

informative: www.helpguide.org or www.alz.
org/vermont. You can also get support from
your physician, Central Vermont Council on
Aging (CVCOA) and Central Vermont Home
Health & Hospice (CVHH&H).
Becoming part of a Caregiving Support
Group is also very helpful; listed below are
some events coming up in the Central Vermont
area for caregivers:
Caregiver Teas: Friday, Feb. 5th and Apr.
1st from 2-3 p.m., held at the CVCOA offices
in Barre. Call 802.476.2681 to RSVP.
Montpelier Memory Caf: Saturday, Feb.
13th, Mar. 12th and Apr. 9th from 10-11:30
a.m., held at the Montpelier Senior Activity
Center. Call 802.476.2681 for information.
Powerful Tools for Caregivers: 6
Thursdays, Mar. 24th to Apr. 28th from 2-4
p.m., held at CVCOA offices in Barre. Call
802.476.2681 to register.
Project Independence Caregiver Support
Group: first Wednesday of each month (Feb.
3rd, Mar. 2nd, Apr. 6th, etc.) from 4:30-6
p.m., held at 81 North Main St. in Barre. Staff
will be available to care for your loved one, if
you need to bring him/her with you. Please
call 802.476.3630 to let us know youre coming or for more information.
Note: Special thanks to Sherill BoverCheney for producing such a wonderful booklet Compassionate Strategies for Dementia
Caregiving. Most of the information in this
article comes from that booklet and through
Sherills generosity; PI has some of these
available. Contact us at 802.476.3630 for
more details.

This month, as the winter

season kicks into full gear
across the country, the American
Red Cross is stressing weather
safety.
Heating equipment is one
of the leading causes of home
fire deaths, and the risk of home
fires increases in colder weather, said Lloyd
Ziel, Chief Communications Officer for the
American Red Cross in New Hampshire and
Vermont. With the onset of winter across the
country, its more important than ever to be
vigilant when it comes to personal safety and
staying warm this winter.
The Red Cross offers info sheets that you
can download, print and distribute at your
school or work.

Cranberry Juice
Prevents UTIs

A recent study offers more proof

that cranberry juice prevents
urinary tract infections (UTIs).
Researchers found that the juice
alters the thermodynamic
properties of bacteria in the
urinary tract to form an energy
barrier that prevents the bacteria
from adhering to cells in the
urinary tract. The juice targets the
bacteria that causes UTIs but has
no effect on other bacteria that
are part of the natural flora in the
body. For those concerned about
the calories in the juice, the
effects of the regular cranberry
juice cocktail and sugar-free
cranberry juice were identical.
Also, this antibacterial benefit is
temporary so one must drink the
juice regularly.

Test the batteries in your smoke alarms

once a month, and change them if theyre not
working.
Create an escape plan that includes two
exits from each room and practice it until
everyone in your household can get out in less
than two minutes.
Follow the three feet rule and keep children, pets and flammable items at least three
feet from heating equipment. Turn off portable
space heaters when you leave the room and
when you go to sleep.
Use gas wisely and never use a cooking
range or oven to heat your home. Four percent
of Americans admit to having used a gas stove
to heat their home.
Use flashlights, not candles because battery-operated flashlights or lanterns are safer
than candles during power outages.

Community Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy

is poised to open a second treatment center on
the Barre-Montpelier Road in Montpelier. Its
current facility, located in East Hardwick,
offers four hyperbaric oxygen chambers and
treats patients with a variety of chronic and
inflammatory conditions and traumas.

BARRE - Welcoming Volunteers to Central VT Adult Basic

Education. Barre Learning Center, 46 Washington St. 4:30-5:30
continued on next page

Spectre (PG-13) -James Bonds latest adventure pits him against a

timely challenge -- a farreaching surveillance network threatens to unravel
the espionage program.
Doesnt sound so bad, though, right? New technology
must supplant the old ways, and Bond has always caused
more destruction than planned. Unfortunately, 007 (Daniel
Craig) has it on good authority that Spectre, a superpowerful conspiracy, has plans to hijack the surveillance
network, essentially giving them immense power on the
global stage.
Its slick and stylish and all that, but continuing with the
current Bond trend, its getting more serious, more dark
and more concerned with Bonds role in the modern
world. This is where it goes off-track, even for longtime
Bond fans. As the stories go deeper into Bonds background, were forced to wonder if we care about that as
much as the fun stuff.
Crimson Peak (R) -- Mia Wasikowska is the girl-inperil in this Gothic romance from Guillermo Del Toro.
Edith (Waskikowska) is a quiet literary type from Buffalo,
New York, around the turn of the 20th century. After the
brutal murder of her father, shes whisked away by a dashing Englishman (Tom Hiddleston) to live in his castle with
him and his twisted sister (Jessica Chastain). The castle is
as spooky as they come, and as Edith realizes that her life
is in danger, the mysteries mount up.
The first thing viewers will notice is that its gorgeously
creepy. Each frame is a painting, and every shadow is
crawling with pointy detail. It could be that too much
attention was paid to the set and not enough to the story.
Either way, the mastery of color and screen space brings
out the goosebumps.
Grandma (R) -- Lily Tomlin stars as the titular relation,
a causitic-yet-caring grandmother who goes the extra few
miles to help her teen granddaughter get out of trouble and
realize her mistakes. Sage (Julia Garner) is pregnant with
her loser-boyfriends child and comes to Elle (Tomlin) for
money for an operation. Elle doesnt have the money, but
she goes on a funding-drive, hitting up old friends,
acquaintances and even her too-busy-for-you daughter for
necessary cash. The whole thing is surprisingly short ...
and unexpectedly fun. Tomlins charm and edge float
things along at a fine pace.

GO FIGURE

The idea of Go Figure is to arrive at the figure given at

the bottom and right-hand columns of the diagram by
following the arithmetic signs in the order they are given
(that is, from left to right and top to bottom). Use only the
numbers below the diagram to complete its blank
squares and use each of the nine numbers only once.

Best described as a number crossword, the task in

Kakuro is to fill all of the empty square, using numbers 1 to 9, so the sum of each horizontal lock
equals the number to its left, and the sum of each
vertical block equals the number on its top. No number may be used in the same block more than
once.

The Island President

1/2

he Climate Change debate in America is terribly polarized.

The left dogmatically believes that Climate
Change is 100% bad. That position doesnt make any
sense to me. In life, unexpected change is good a lot of the
time. And global warming is clearly good for some people
- people who own property in Siberia and Greenland, for
example.
The right, meanwhile, counters with the equally ridiculous argument that Climate Change isnt real. The progressively receding ice caps and glaciers pretty much prove
that the earth is warming. And though its clear to me that
global warming is good for some regions (like Central Vermont), its certainly going to be terrible for others.
The Maldives, for example.
The Island President is an entertaining and beautifully
shot documentary about a truly heroic leader: former Maldives President Mohamed Nasheed.
The Maldives is a tiny island nation that sits alone in the
middle of the vast Indian Ocean. The 350,000 inhabitants
are ethnically Indian but they have been separated culturally from their brothers on the Continent for thousands of
years and have developed their own distinctive Maldivian
culture and language.
For 30 years, The Maldives was tormented by a thuggish
dictator who routinely imprisoned, tortured, and killed dissidents. Finally, Mohamed Nasheed - a brave young democrat - forced the dictator to hold free elections and became
the legitimate President of The Maldives.
Now, having saved his country from tyranny, President
Nasheed tried to save The Maldives from environmental
disaster.
I rmly predict that the main effect of a 3 degree temper-

ature increase on Vermont will be less horrible winters. The

effect on Maldives will be total and permanent annihilation
as rising ocean levels engulf the low-lying archipelago.
In the lms gripping climax, President Nasheed travels
to far-ung Copenhagen to attend the International Climate
Change Conference in December, 2009.
There is something hopeless and absurd about trying
to get people to take the problem of global warming seriously in the middle of a frigid Scandinavian winter. Its like
spearheading a campaign to criminalize cosmetic plastic
surgery and starting at the Kardashian house.
Nevertheless, our underdog hero does everything he can
to keep the US, China, and India at the negotiating table.
Ultimately, the big polluting countries did agree on a carbon reduction agreement. But, according to scientic models, it wont halt global warming quickly enough to save
The Maldives from oblivion.
As you can tell, I dont consider global warming a big
problem. Thats simply because I dont like bundling up in
heavy jackets to go to work each morning. And to the best
of my recollection, Ive never used the phrase its too hot
- except when referring to a mug of freshly brewed tea.
However, I hope that I can reach an understanding with
my environmentalist readers. Lets meet in the middle: Ill
admit that global warming is bad for The Maldives if you
admit that global warming is good for the couple who just
built their dream house in Greenland.

Peyton Manning
Known as The Sherriff, Peyton Manning
isnt exactly the gunslinger quarterback
that he used to be. Injuries have slowed the
39-year-old over the past couple of seasons,
especially this season, when he missed six
games with a foot injury.
Consider this juxtaposition of statistics:
Manning threw for 5,477 yards and 55 touchdowns just two seasons ago against his 2,249
yards and nine touchdowns during his abbreviated 2015 regular season. Manning also
threw 17 interceptions this season.
His performance coupled with his injury
led to the ascension of backup quarterback
Brock Osweiler, who many pundits were
ready to anoint the long-term starting quarterback of the Broncos, even after Mannings
injury was behind him.
The Sherriff had other ideas and is one
game away from possibly riding off into the
sunset of retirement.

The WORLD

February 3, 2016

In an era of forest fragmentation, declining

species, and rising global temperatures, it can
be difficult to remain hopeful about the future
of the environment. But the Association of
Vermont Conservation Commissions (AVCC)
is looking to show that Vermonts grassroots
conservation efforts are great examples of
conservation success.
The association is compiling Conservation
Success Stories on their website, vtconservation.com, in an effort to demonstrate what
works in conservation. The stories include
everything from streambank restoration projects to education programs that connect kids
with nature.
Jens Hilke, a conservation planning biologist for the Vermont Fish & Wildlife
Department, serves on the AVCCs board.
According to Hilke, the board is hoping these
success stories will serve as promising examples for others to follow.
Amazing conservation work is happening
at the local level in Vermont, said Hilke.
Were asking local conservation groups to
share your stories to build on this work and
serve as a resource for other groups working
on similar issues. We want to know who you
partnered with, what your challenges were,
and what was critical to your success.
One of the nearly 100 success stories currently on the website is the conservation of

Zack Woods Pond and the surrounding 400

acres in Hyde Park, Vt, a local hotspot for
hiking, fishing, and loon-watching. Local
residents had grown increasingly concerned
about rampant trash dumping, out of control
fires, and overused campsites on the land.
They formed Friends of Zack Woods and
partnered with several statewide conservation
organizations to work towards solving these
issues. In 2013, the state of Vermont accepted
the property into the Green River Reservoir
State Park, ensuring that these lands will
remain forever conserved.
Karen Freeman is the conservation director
for the Vermont Housing and Conservation
Board, and serves on the board of the
Association of Vermont Conservation
Commissions.
According to Freeman,
Vermonts local conservation commissions
are defined by their willingness to work
together and learn from each other. These
partnerships continue to strengthen the states
conservation legacy, ensuring that Vermonts
wild places, outdoor recreational resources,
and working landscape will remain healthy
and available for future generations.
Vermont conservation groups looking to
get information about past successes, or to
share their stories with others, can access the
website at vtconservation.com.

NOW HERES A TIP

By JoAnn Derson

* A lint roller can dust a lampshade if it

is a soft fabric. The roller picks up dust
without grinding it into the surface the
way a dust rag might.
* Use plastic wrap (or Press N Seal) to line shelves -- even
in your fridge. Spills are easily and quickly cleaned up by
removing said wrap. -- P.E. in Washington
* Small toys and action figures can usually be cleaned in the
dishwasher. If you have a dishwasher basket leftover from
when your children used bottles, you can use them to contain
small toys. If not, they are inexpensive, handy and can be
found pretty reliably at rummage or tag sales.
* Mix together lemon juice and olive oil to make a terrific
furniture polish. Apply a few drops to a cleaning rag and wipe
down wood furniture. Buff to a shine. -- S.S. in Michigan
* MYO dog treats with this great recipe adapted from
DailyDishRecipes.com: Combine 2 cups of flour with 8
ounces of jarred baby food. Mix to a sticky dough. Roll out
and cut out to desired shapes. Bake in a 350 F oven for 20-25
minutes. Store in a covered container up to 2 weeks.

Debunking Myths About Spaying And Neutering

Companion animal overpopulation poses a considerable problem.
The Humane Society of the United
States says about 2.4 million healthy,
adoptable cats and dogs are euthanized in American animal shelters
each year about one every 13 seconds. Many of these animals are the
offspring of beloved pets or stray cats
and dogs who reproduce unchecked.
One of the easiest solutions to the
pet overpopulation problem is to have
pets spayed or neutered. Another solution is for prospective pet owners
to adopt pets from a nearby animal
shelter one that handles spaying
and neutering for their adoptable animals.
Many pet owners are hesitant to
have their animals spayed or neutered. That hesitation may stem from
some prevailing myths surrounding
spaying or neutering.

Myth: My pets personality will

change for the worse.
Fact: Pet behavior may improve
after the animal is spayed or neutered. Males tend to be less aggressive, and females wont howl, cry or
pace when theyre in heat. Also, your
pet actually may stick closer to home
because the desire to nd a mate has
been reduced.
Myth: Its adviseable to spay a
female pet after she has at least one
litter.
Fact: Many veterinarians stand
by medical evidence that suggests
females spayed before their rst heat
are typically healthier than those who
arent.
Myth: It is expensive to have my
pet spayed or neutered.
Fact: Subsidized voucher programs as well as low-cost spay/neuter clinics can help make the procedure affordable.

Myth: You can use neutering or

spaying interchangeably to describe
the sterilization process.
Fact: Neutering is associated with
male pets and the removal of the testicles. Spaying is for female pets and
involves the removal of both the ovaries and uterus.

Myth: The sterilization procedure

is painful for my pet.
Fact: The surgery is done under

DEAR TANNER:
Imagine this: Your
room has a big glass wall, and strange, scary creatures
come up to the glass all day long and stare at you. Imagine
also that the wall has amplifiers in it so that every time
someone knocks on the glass, the sound is so loud it puts a
lot of pressure on your ears.
If that happened to you several times a day, every day,
youd be pretty stressed out. Especially if it happens when
youre trying to sleep or rest.
For fish, which tend to react badly when their environment changes, tank tappers can really cause problems.
Because theyre constantly being startled and scared, their
immune systems weaken and they become vulnerable to
diseases they can normally fight off. Some fish have been
reported to try and escape from a tank theyre constantly
being scared in by jumping out of it. That doesnt usually
work out well for the fish.
The best way to enjoy an aquarium full of fish is to, well
... just watch them. Most fish will shy away if you approach
the tank, but if you hold still, they will begin to swim past
you and youll get a close look at them. If theyre holding
still or not swimming fast, dont tap the tank -- just let them
be.

Classical Records
Q: We have a collection of
78-rpm and LP recordings,
mostly classical. Could you
provide me with the names of buyers?
-- Janice, via e-mail
A: I get questions about older recordings at least a dozen
times each week, and my answer is always the same:
Unless you have real rarities, there is little market for older
recordings. I contacted used record dealers in Los Angeles,
St. Louis, Dallas and New York, and I was told that it was
difficult, if not impossible, to sell classical recordings in
the secondary marketplace. You might consider donating
your collection to a charity.

basis: Golden Age Comics by Alex G. Malloy and Stuart
W. Wells III (Krause Books); Official Overstreet Comic
Book Price Guide by Robert W. Overstreet (House of
Collectibles); and Comic Book Checklist and Price
Guide by Maggie Thompson, Brent Frankenhoff and
Peter Bickford (Krause Books). Since prices can vary from
region to region, dont assume values listed are chiseled in
stone. Also, dont hesitate to contact established comicbook dealers in your area.

Sowing Greens and Other January Gardening Tips

By Leonard Perry, UVM Horticulturist and Charlie Nardozzi, Garden Consultant

Sowing edible greens and sprouts indoors, reading seed and plant
catalogs, and growing peace lilies, are some of the gardening activities
for this month.
If you have a set of grow lights or bright windowsill, you can grow
mesclun or other quick-growing greens to add to early spring salads.
Fill a tray with moistened seed-starting mix and sow seeds thickly,
then cover with one-quarter inch of soil and mist the surface. Dont let
the surface dry out. As soon as the first seeds germinate, keep the
lights about 4 inches above the tray.
You can start your own sprouts for salads easily under even lower
light, buying seeds for this at garden stores or online from catalogs.
You can buy special sprouting trays that stack, or simply sprout seeds
in a jar covered with cheesecloth. Moisten seeds overnight, then drain
and place a layer in the container. Rinse and drain daily. Many seeds
can be used such as beans and peas, mustard and other similar greens,
grains such as wheat, grasses such as oats, lettuce, and even onions
and their relatives.
Whether you use warm-white and cool-white fluorescent tubes or
special plant lights to start seedlings, they lose light intensity
after a few years and ideally should be replaced. If you feel
its hard to justify buying new lights that often, consider all
the time and effort youre spending on starting plants. Without
adequate light, your seedlings will grow spindly and will be
less productive in the garden, and you wont get the most out
of your efforts. Look for darkening at the ends of the tubes, a
sign they are losing intensity. When replacing tubes, look for
the lower wattage, energy efficient ones.
If you plan to order seeds from catalogs or online, or are
considering this, there are some words to understand. If
youre concerned about GMOs (genetically modified organisms), look for companies that have taken the safe seed
pledge to not sell these. An example would be a corn variety
which has had genes from the Bt bacterium inserted, in order
to make it more pest resistant.
GMOs are not the same as hybrids, which are merely the
result of crossing a couple parent varietiessimilar to what
nature does, only these being in a controlled manner. The
abbreviation F1 or F2 denotes a first or second generation

(crossed a couple times) hybrid.

Other abbreviations you may see in descriptions, particularly for
some vegetables, refer to disease resistances. The catalog will have a
key to these. So, for instance with tomatoes, TMV refers to resistance
to tobacco mosaic virus, N for resistance to nematodes, V for resistance to verticillium wilt, and so on.
If you want an easy-care houseplant which will tolerate fairly low
light conditions or even daily artificial lighting, consider peace lilies
(Spathiphyllum) if you arent already growing one. These have long,
strap-like leaves, and periodic white flowers. The flowers are elongate, half-cup shaped with a central white stalk. They dont like
overly wet soils, but will take periodic drying out. This is a great
indicator plant for wateringwhen it starts to droop, check your
plants for watering needs.
Other activities for this month include checking stored summer
bulbs and root crops, inspecting houseplants for pests, and visiting
some botanic gardensonline.

Vermonters Reduce Driving, Increase Walking, Biking

and Take More Bus and Train Trips

The Vermont Transportation Board recently released its Annual Report, which documents the comments the Board received during a recent series of public forums that
focused on the difficulties of navigating
Vermont without a car and the transportation
trends of middle-aged and older adults.
After researching both national and state
driving trends, the Board conducted a series
of six public forums that were held during the
fall of 2015. The report documents that older
Vermont adults, much like their younger
counterparts, want to drive their cars less and
walk, bike and use public transportation more
often.
Driving is on the decline nationwide, but
what we found is that Vermonters are not just
part of this trend, they are actually leading
the charge, said Transportation Board
Chairman Nick Marro. In just about every
measurable category, Vermonters outpace the
nation when it comes to walking, biking and
curtailing the amount of time they spend
behind the wheel. They also thirst for greater
public transportation options.
From the end of World War II until 2004,
the number of miles the average American
drove an automobile annually increased. But
beginning in 2005, Americans reversed this
trend. Between 2007 and 2013, vehicle miles
traveled (VMT) per capita nationwide
dropped 6 percent, while per-capita VMT
here in Vermont dropped 8.4 percent.
Across the nation, more Americans also
walk and bike to work than they used to, with
Vermonters also leading this charge.
Nationally, workers commuting by bicycle
increased 39 percent from 2005 to 2011,
while bike commuting increased from 0.61
percent of the total population in 2011 to 0.63
percent, an additional 3.2 percent increase. In
Vermont, despite the states harsh climate
nearly 1 percent of the population biked to
work as its primary mode of transportation
between 2011 and 2013.
Vermonters also walk to work considerably more than average Americans.
Nationally, workers commuting by foot
increased by 20 percent from 2005 to 2009,
while about 2.9 percent of all American

walked to work between 2011 and 2013. In

Vermont, 6.2 percent of workers walked to
work during this same time period.
Not surprisingly, fewer Vermonters commute via public transportation largely because
other states offer greater options than
Vermont. However, use of local public transit
is significantly in the rise as train travel is up
89 percent between 2005 and 2014, while
other public-transit use (mostly riding buses)
rose 6 percent between 2011 and 2014, and
likely would have increased by 9 percent had
Chittenden County not experienced a multiweek bus driver strike in 2014.
The Board in 2014 researched and met
with hundreds of young adults between the
ages of 18 and 34, so we knew what they
thought. Marro said. This year, we wanted
to learn whether the transportation behavior
of older Vermonters also was in synch with
their national counterparts.
What they told us is that they would like
to live a lifestyle that is less dependent on an
automobile, but that Vermonts lack of carfree alternatives makes that difficult. Just like
the millennials we talked to last year, older
Vermonters want better public-transportation
options as well as better walking and biking
infrastructure that allows them to curb their
driving.
Vermonters at every stop the Board made
said they want additional public transportation options that both run at convenient times
and serve more Vermont communities, they
desire safe bicycle facilities such as dedicated
bike lanes in downtown areas and bike paths
that connect destinations, and they want additional pedestrian facilities like sidewalks that
connect their homes to nearby restaurants
and shops.
Vermonters young and old told us they
want more transportation options, Marro
said. Owning a car is expensive and environmentally harmful. Many want to reduce
the amount they drive, while some families
want to be able to own just one car instead of
two. But to do this, they need convenient
and the key is convenient ways to reach
work, stores, restaurants, schools and places
of entertainment without driving.
