Green Mountain National Forest (GMNF) officials are recommending that snowmobilers exercise caution when operating on the Forest, and all lands, in Vermont this winter. GMNF officials remind snowmobile enthusiasts to heed to all gates and signs and to stay off of roads and trails that were damaged and remain closed due to Hurricane Irene. Weather permitting, snowmobile use is allowed on designated trails within the GMNF for four months beginning on December 16, and ending on April 15, 2012. Given the significant number of injuries and fatalities that have occurred in recent years we are concerned about user safety. Patrols which are aimed at enforcing rules and regulations, monitoring trail conditions and providing visitor information will occur throughout the Forest, said Colleen Madrid, Forest Supervisor for the Green Mountain and Finger Lakes National Forests. The GMNF will continue to work closely with state and local law enforcement agencies, as well as the Vermont Association of Snow Travelers (VAST) to make sure users of the trail system are respectful, responsible, law abiding, and safe. The GMNF and VAST cooperate to maintain more than 470 miles of national forest system trails that are part of the larger statewide snowmobile network. VAST is one of a few snowmo-

bile associations in the United States that has a cooperative partnership agreement with the U.S. Forest Service. All of these trails allow mixed uses, so people are snowshoeing, hiking, and cross-country skiing, as well as using snowmobiles. Snowmobilers should travel responsibly and yield to other users, said Madrid. The maximum speed on state lands is 35 miles per hour and Vermont has a tough Snowmobiling While Intoxicated Law that covers alcohol, as well as drugs. The Forest Service is also warning all snow travelers of the dangers in riding, hiking and skiing on frozen water bodies. Trail users are encouraged to be mindful of fallen trees and other hazards they may encounter. Operators must maintain control of their snowmobile while riding; keep to the right at all times, wear helmets, and stay on designated trails only. All snowmobiles must be legally registered, have liability insurance, and operators must purchase a VAST Trails Maintenance Assessment decal. Officials also encourage winter trail users to pack a flashlight, cell phone, food, and extra warm clothing in case of an emergency. For more information on GMNF road and trail closures please visit: http://www.fs.usda.gov/ greenmountain or http://www.vtvast.org/VAST/ Trails/Trail-Closures.html.

Students at Berlin Elementary collected an estimated 1,200 pounds of donated food in December. The effort was in response to the community's need for nutritious food during the holiday season. Two students representatives from each classroom met daily to monitor the collection and participate in a special Morning Meeting filled with learning activities related to the collection. The students would then report back to their classmates on the school's progress. Students set a goal of collecting 600 food items, but surpassed that by collecting 816. On December 19th, students organized the food into a food pantry in the school lobby and invited the Berlin community to take what they needed. The following day, student representatives loaded the remaining approximately 800 pounds of food onto the bus and delivered it to the Vermont Foodbank. Students received a tour of the Foodbank given by CEO John Sayles and learned how their donations will directly impact Central Vermont.

The Vermont Fish and Wildlife Department has some ice fishing safety reminders, but the department cautions there are few areas this early in the season where ice is safe enough to support fishing. Once we have sustained cold weather to form good ice, ice fishing can be safe and a lot of fun, said Col. David LeCours, Vermonts Chief Game Warden, but when we go onto the ice, we need to use good judgment and observe several safety precautions. Leave your car or truck on shore. Every year several motor vehicles go through the ice on Vermont lakes, and people have drowned as a result. Leave information about your plans with someone -- where you intend to fish and when you expect to return. Wear a personal flotation device and dont fish alone. Ice varies in thickness and condition. Always carry an ice spud or chisel to check ice as you proceed. Be extremely cautious crossing ice near river mouths, points of land, bridges, islands, and over reefs and springs. Current
Ice Fishing Caution and Safety Reminders
almost always causes ice to be thinner over these areas. Avoid going onto the ice if it has melted away from the shore. This indicates melting is underway, and ice can shift position as wind direction changes. Waves from open water can quickly break up large areas of ice. If you can see open water in the lake and the wind picks up, get off! Bring your cell phone with you. Carry a set of hand spikes to help you work your way out onto the surface of the ice if you go through. Holding one in each hand, you can alternately punch them into the ice and pull yourself up and out. You can make these at home, using large nails, or you can purchase them at stores that sell fishing supplies. Carry a safety line that can be thrown to someone who has gone through the ice. Heated fishing shanties must have good ventilation to prevent deadly carbon monoxide poisoning. Open a window or the door part way to allow in fresh air.

As part of the Kids Are Priority One Coalitions Campaign 180, Central Vermont Building Bright Futures Council (CVBBF) held a legislative forum at the New Leaf Child Care Center in Barre on December 6. A dozen parents, early childhood service providers, and child care center staff met with eight Senators and Representatives to raise their awareness about the importance of quality in early care and education in child care, pre-kindergarten and after-school programs. They were pleased to have Senators Mark MacDonald and Anthony Pollina, and Representatives Tony Klein, Peter Peltz, Janet Ancel, Tess Taylor, Anne Donahue, and Warren Kitzmiller present for this informative dialogue. Melissa Riegel-Garrett described how 26% of Central Vermont's providers participate in STARS, with only 14% of those qualifying at the 4 and 5 STAR level. STARS is Vermonts quality recognition system for child care, pre-

school, and after school programs. Then a CVBBF produced video, featuring employers and employees on the issue of quality child care, was shown. House Education Committee member, Peter Peltz from Woodbury, opened the discussion with an overview of the legislature's passage of a bill last session that lifted the enrollment cap on publicly funded pre-kindergarten programs. Lee Lauber, Executive Director of the Family Center of Washington County, shared that 628 (out of 1,350) three- and four-year-olds currently participate in a publicly funded pre-kindergarten program, either in school, child care or private school settings. There was a very productive conversation by all those in attendance about how to increase that number.

Barre resident Roxanne Jarvis was named Auxilian of the Year at the annual meeting of the Central Vermont Medical Center Auxiliary. According to Julia Page, CVMC Volunteer Service Manager, Barre resident Roxanne started out as a customer of The Bene-Fit Shop and saw a need for someone who was willing to help out. Roxanne started to do various tasks when she was at the shop such as straightening up the racks, and before too long it was suggested that she should join as a volunteer. Roxanne signed on as a volunteer in November 2006 and has since served over 4,000 hours. In addition to three scheduled days per week, Roxanne also works evenings and weekends to break down boxes, sort donations, put out trash, and to do anything else that needs to be done to ensure that the shop and the merchandise are at their best. With a mind for continuous improvement, she generates creative ideas and solutions to streamline and improve processes. Roxanne is dedicated to high standards of quality and customer service. Her motivation comes from an understanding of what a tremendous resource The Bene-Fit Shop is to the community, and from a desire to promote the mission of the Auxiliary, said Julia. Roxanne is very connected to her fellow volunteers at the shop. I love working with the ladies at The Bene-Fit Shop. They have so many different stories about things and experiences Ive never been through or seen. I have no grandparents left and my mother is gone, so the ladies I work with definitely fill a void in my life. The CVMC Auxiliary operates the Gift Shop off the main lobby at the hospital and The BeneFit Shop, a thrift shop in Barre. The Bene-Fit

The American College of Nurse-Midwives has named Gifford Medical Centers midwifery practice a best in the nation compared to its peers. The ACNM, a professional organization representing certified nurse-midwives in the United States, named Gifford best practice in the nation among small-size practices for having the highest success rate with vaginal births after cesareans and runner-up best practice for both lowest rates of low birth weight infants and operative vaginal births. Operative vaginal births means births using vacuum or forceps. The awards are based on 2010 benchmarking data from participating practices across the nation. Gifford is home to six certified nurse-midwives and four ob/ gyns who provide 24-hour birth care at the Randolph hospitals renowned Birthing Center. Midwifery care is also provided at the Gifford Health Center at Berlin. Gifford Certified Nurse-Midwife Tanya Waters worked with the ACNM to provide benchmarking data for Gifford. Midwifery is more than just taking care of families. Its having a process in place where you can self-reflect and identify how you can do better. Participating in processes like these demonstrate our commitment to providing the best care we can, Waters said. The results, she said, are indicative of Giffords philosophy and high standards for care. Providing vaginal births after cesareans is an example. We continue doing VBACs when many other small institutions have stopped, Waters said, explaining, The institution has made a commitment to providing patients all of their safe options and that is one of them.
Gifford Midwifery Named 'Best Practice'
Gifford Medical Centers certified nurse-midwives, bottom row from left, are Tanya Waters, Kipp Bovey and Kathryn Saunders and, top row from left, Donna Butler, Laureli Morrow and Meghan Sperry.
The results of the data can also be a tool for women and families looking for prenatal care. We can help our perspective patients know more about us to help them decide that this is the best setting for them, Waters said.

Gov. Peter Shumlin and legislative leaders announced last week that the state would add $6.1 million to the Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program, known as LIHEAP, to help ensure Vermonters can afford to heat their homes and stay warm this winter. Despite the heavy lifting of Vermonts Congressional delegation, the federal contribution to LIHEAP will be about $8 million less than last year. Vermont received $27.6 million in fuel assistance from the federal government for heating assistance last year, providing an average benefit of $866. This year Vermont expects to receive $19.5 million, providing an average benefit amount of $750, the Governor said. We should not let vulnerable Vermonters freeze in their homes this winter season, Gov. Shumlin said. The state will provide the additional funding to help ensure every Vermonter stays warm. In addition, we will review the program to find ways of ensuring that heating assistance is sustainable in future years. The Governor, Lieutenant Governor and legislative leaders made the decision to provide a projected 8 percent increase in the average fuel assistance benefit after Congress finalized this winters LIHEAP numbers. That 8 percent figure was selected following a government report that projects home heating expenditures will increase by that amount this heating season. We are disappointed that despite the good efforts of our Congressional delegation, Congress failed to take appropriate action to fully fund this program in a time when fuel costs are rising rapidly, said Speaker Shap Smith. The Legislature will step up to ensure that Vermont families and the elderly are not left out in the cold this winter.
State Will Supplement Heating Assistance for Low-income Vermonters

Its unfortunate that certain members of Congress believe that tax breaks for the wealthiest are more important than keeping Americans warm this year, said President Pro Tem John Campbell. The actions announced by the Governor today will ensure that needy older Vermonters will receive the help they need to remain warm this winter, said Ken Gordon, with AARP Vermont / VT Association of Area Agencies on Aging. Many Vermont seniors faced having to choose between paying for medicine, food and heat this winter. These additional funds will make a critical difference to those individuals and families who rely upon this program to survive our long and cold winter months. The states $6.1 million will be added to the federal $19.5 million and other available funds, increasing the average annual benefit per household to about $935. Of the states share, $5.1 million will come from funds the Legislature set aside in anticipation of federal cuts, and $1 million from a projected year-end carry-forward in the non-ARRA funded weatherization program. Gov. Shumlin said Vermont taxpayers cannot be expected to cover all of the federal cutbacks passed by Congress, So we must take a hard look at what can be done to make sure our fuel assistance program is sustainable. He directed the Commissioner of Department of Children and Families and the fuel assistance office to do a rapid and thorough study of steps Vermont can take to enhance the sustainability of a fuel assistance program (including eligibility, how the state pays dealers, other possible sources of revenue, etc.) and report the possibilities to the Administration and the Legislature by the end of the 2012 legislative session.

The post-Irene mobile home de-construction team assembled by Lt. Governor Phil Scott and Secretary of Commerce and Community Development Lawrence Miller reported last week that they removed 68 homes in six parks around the state, completing the first phase of their work in early December. Scott and Miller launched the project in late September after hearing that many Vermonters whose mobile homes were destroyed in the flood were facing disposal costs of $3,500 to $4,500. A total of 385 mobile homes throughout the state received some level of FEMA assistance, and 141 of these were deemed "substantially damaged" and beyond repair. However, the average FEMA award to mobile home owners - which was to cover repair or replacement of the home itself as well as damaged contents and temporary housing costs -- was only $4,500. Scott initially worked with the Associated General Contractors of VT to set up a coordinated mobile home removal effort that reduced the per-home cost to $1,500. Secretary Miller then reached out to the Vermont Community Foundation and the Vermont Long Term Disaster Recovery Group, who collectively raised more than $300,000 to enable the team to offer the de-construction and disposal service free of charge to any mobile home owner living in a

park. Demolition started on October 31, and all of the work was completed within six weeks. This played a key role in rehabilitating flooded mobile home parks in central and southern Vermont. "Thanks to the team we put together, we finished before the worst part of winter set in, which will allow homeowners and park owners to move forward and rebuild," said Secretary Miller. Scott noted that one park remains on the project list: River Run Park in Berlin, which was flooded in May, and where a handful of homeowners were unable to pay for the removal of their destroyed homes. River Run, he said, serves as an example of what might have happened after Irene. "Five abandoned trailers still sit there today, and they're holding up the rebuilding process at that park. We could have easily seen that happen on a much larger scale after Irene, had we not been able to remove those trailers quickly." Scott added that the team has set aside funding to remove those five homes at River Run as soon as the park owner and the town have completed the abandonment process.

ou look exactly the same as you did in high school, Mavis. Everyone else changed, but you didnt change at all. Charlize Therons character takes this as a compliment. But it is no compliment. Young Adult is a powerful reminder that in order to have a chance at being a well-adjusted adult, one must grow up and stop obsessing about what happened in high school. Whether your high school experience was tortuous or glorious, you have to let it go. If you were miserable and unpopular in high school, you must avoid dwelling on the past. Forgive and forget the kids who made fun of you. Their childish insults only have meaning if you let them affect your confidence now. If you were successful and popular as a teenager, it is tempting to want to cling to your high school glory forever like Al Bundy. But that is just as foolish. Inconveniently for the cool kids, the recipe for success in high school the art of hiding and subverting your true self in order to fit in with the crowd doesnt work in the real world. The recipe for success as an adult is the exact opposite: you must learn to discover who you truly are, make peace with it, and find a few people who will completely accept you. Charlize Theron is clueless, sad, and terrific as Mavis Gary a Minneapolis author who has written a series of Young Adult novels. Mavis is as immature as the characters in her books. As the story begins, she decides to take a trip to her hometown for

walt). Like Mavis, Matt is emotionally scarred from his high school experience. Unlike Mavis, Matt is also physically scarred. A group of jocks gave him a severe beating sophomore year and he has had to walk with a cane ever since. Mavis and Matt are a perfect match, but they are both too damaged to realize it. Just like they did in Juno, writer/director duo Diablo Cody and Jason Reitman deftly balance comedy, tragedy and pathos. Though she starts off as a hilarious home-wrecking harlot, Mavis ultimately learns some valuable life lessons. When youre 15, its okay to be vain, deceitful, and shallow. You are allowed to be nasty to other girls and even try to steal their boyfriends. If you behave that way at 35, you are no longer just a mean girl you are a miserable sociopath. The high school experience is an important part of growing up. Not every graduate has received a solid education, but most have had to face extreme disappointment, embarrassment and heartbreak and they are stronger for it. High school really does prepare you for adulthood as long you are able to leave the pettiness and the pain behind. Mavis finally learns that lesson. It is a satisfying happy ending.
one wild weekend of drinking and scheming. Maviss plan is to bring meaning back to her lonely life by winning back her high school boyfriend Buddy. However, Buddy is too busy caring for his infant daughter to pay Mavis much attention. So our hapless hard-drinking heroine ends up spending most of her time hanging out with another old classmate, Matt (Patton Os-

By Eric Gwinn Chicago Tribune Did you get a phone, tablet or laptop for the holidays? Bring out the oohs and ahhs with just the right accessory to make your new favorite toy even better. THE iPHONE 4 FREAK: The Kogeto Dot ($79; kogeto.com) definitely fits the description of something cool and unusual that he or she wouldnt think of. Its a plastic lens that snaps over the iPhone 4 or iPhone 4S and lets the phone capture video in 360 degrees, video that can be easily shared on Facebook, Twitter or by email. If you receive a video that someone shot while walking through Times Square, you can spin the point of view around (via click-drag on a computer or by swiping the video on your phone). Watch the LED billboards on the left, then pivot your view to see the person behind the camera, then pivot again to see other tourists and traffic on the right. To get a sense of what Im yammering about, check out kogeto.com/dotspots. Its great for someone who loves to shoot videos on the go (though its awful in low-light situations) and youll get a kick out of seeing their videos in a whole new way. THE TABLET TOTER: The WingStand ($14.95; wingstand.com) is a humble idea that packs a lot of wow. Two curved pieces of sturdy plastic sit on a tabletop or other flat, horizontal surface and hold that new tablet at a comfortable reading angle. The WingStand is designed to be used with a portable keyboard that makes your tablet or phone feel more like a laptop, but it looks and works great by itself. The viewing angle doesnt adjust, but the WingStand is stable

and securely holds a tablet or phone even while the device is being swiped. The two parts snap together so they arent easily misplaced. This is one find your gift recipient soon will be thanking you for over and over. THE COMPUTER CAPTAIN: Know someone who has high-speed Internet but wont go wireless, so the computer is stuck in the same room as the modem? Give that person freedom with the Netgear Powerline AV 200 Adapter Kit ($76.75; amazon.com). Plug one adapter into an outlet near the modem, then plug the other adapter into an outlet in any other room in the house; then connect the modem to the first adapter and the computer to another adapter and just like that, instant high-speed network. So if the modem and computer have always been in the living room, now the modem can stay put and the computer can go to the bedroom, kitchen, even the bathroom (stay away from that tub, though!). A hardwired connection is fast, compared to a wireless connection, so Web pages load nearly instantly, and there are no settings to fool with, and the AV 200 lets you press a button to secure your data from would-be snoopers. The AV 200 is on sale because a newer model is expected soon, but its a great way to give a little more freedom of movement to someone with high-speed Internet but no wireless setup.

Editor: I am writing as the President of the Central Vermont Quad Runners ATV Club based in the Bethel-StockbridgeRandolph-Rochester area. Our area was one of the hardest hit areas by the floods of Hurricane Irene. ATVers were on the front lines of getting help to our friends and neighbors around this region when floods cut off all other means of access to many sections of our area towns before, during, and after the flood. With the roads and bridges gone, ATVers started using old Class 4 town roads and ATV trails to find ways to get food, water, gas, and much needed supplies to stranded people in the region. ATVs rescued people who needed to be air lifted out to hospitals, sometimes making trails to get through. We saw first hand the amount of devastation and danger that people were going through. Our area has undergone much rebuilding in the months since the flood. However, the many folks who suffered damage or lost everything during the flood still have struggles before them. During this holiday season, I wish to ask everyone to remember our friends and neighbors who are still recovering from the flood. I also want to say thank-you to all the ATVers from our region and beyond who responded to this emergency and to all our state and local leaders and volunteers, who helped get the job done. Thank you! Paul Morse, Sr., President Central Vermont Quad Runners
This will save Vermont employers millions of dollars each year in health care costs. And for small employers who choose not to offer insurance to their employees, these employees if they are in households under 400% of the federal poverty level (about $90,000/yr for a family of four), will receive a federal subsidy for their health care costs. In short, because of the Exchange, Vermont small business owners and their employees will receive millions of federal dollars in subsidies for their health care costs. While far from being a cure all to what ails our health care system, the Exchange should serve as a good foundation for the necessary reforms of Green Mountain Care by bringing down the cost of health care for small businesses, making the application process simpler, making it easier for consumers to make informed choices, not to mention eliminating many nasty aspects of the existing private insurance market such as annual lifetime limits, pre-existing exclusions and waiting periods for publicly subsidized care.

Health Care Exchange Will Save Money, Improve Care
Editor: Throughout Shawn Shouldices piece "Small Businesses Concerned About VTs Health Care Exchange" in the December 21st issue of the World, she confuses readers with how individuals and businesses will and wont be impacted by the federally-mandated Health Care Exchange and the goals of the states single payer initiative, Green Mountain Care, Ms. Shouldice writes, Under the single carrier exchange envisioned by the governor, private insurers would be forced out of the health care business. By law, the Exchange, set to begin in 2014, can only include private insurance carriers (such as Blue Cross Blue Shield and MVP) offering various highly regulated, insurance products much as they do now. Nowhere in the federal or state law governing creation of the Exchange is there any reference to a single carrier. Ms. Shouldice fails to mention that if the state were to decline to implement the Exchange, the federal government, by law, would have to step in and do it for us. In what way is this preferable to a system designed and implemented by Vermonters? What Ms. Shouldice also omits from her analysis is that under the Exchange for the first time ever, public dollars will be used to subsidize small businesses that offer insurance to their employees.
Editor: I would like to address the letter Small Businesses Concerned About VTs Health Care Exchange, by Shawn Shouldice, Vermont State Director of the NFIB (National Federation of Independent Business) in the December 21 edition of The World. Ms. Shouldice is correct about our health care being the most expensive in the world with outcomes that fall far short of what we spend on it. I agree with her when she said, Unquestionably, the current system is inefficient. Yet, when Ms. Shouldice suggests that supporters of singlepayer argue that insurance companies spend millions on nonmedical costs that are passed on to consumers, it is because they are right. In Vermont, for example, health care expenditures amount to about 18% of its GDP (Gross Domestic Product), which translates to about $5 billion a year now for a state of some 600,000 residents. While not all of this is just private insurance to be sure, it should be noted that in Taiwan, for instance, with a single-payer type system, and a population in the millions, it is about 6% of GDP. Run down the list of single-payer countries and the story is similar. Why are our costs so high with so many Vermonters still uninsured (about 47,000) and theirs are so low with every one of their citizens insured? Which system is more efficient? We have tried the markets. They are not the answer for health care. Walter Carpenter Montpelier

Reisss Pieces
By Judy Reiss few years ago, I bought a new clock! I was so pleased to be able to buy this particular clock because it never needed to be set. Can you imagine? Well, it was just perfect. It is about 12in diameter which means that I can see it after I hung it on the wall of our family room. What a treat! Seeing had become a real issue for me and over the years it became an even more important issue. And when I bought it I didnt realize that it is connected with some radio wave (dont know where it comes from but it is somewhere on this planet, I think) and what that means is this magical place sends out a mythical wave and the clock does just what it says, it sets the clock to the correct time. And supposedly, it never needs setting by me because it is always correct, time-wise. Because I am always a little off center, this clock is driving me nuts. And here is why. We hung this clock right where you can see it from almost anywhere in the room. I can sit in my chair and only have to raise my eye to see what time it is. Now isnt that terrific? And what is even more wonderful is that when it is daylight savings time, it sets itself to the correct time or it is supposed to do this. But here is what our clock does. I assume that when we are supposed to either fall back or spring ahead, the clock does that at about 2am. Im never up at that time but I assume that is when this wave secretly enters my house and changes the clock. However, I must tell you that when I get up, the clock appears to be having a seizure. Its little hands are racing around its face and it appears that neither one of them has any idea where they are supposed to be. Well, finally they do stop but almost every single time they arent in the place that my wrist watch says they are supposed to be. And there is never any specific clue as to what time it actually is. But every single spring and fall, Malcolm assures me that it is only confused and that it will right itself, when we dont know, but it will happen. And every single time I think that if we only changed the battery things would probably get fixed quicker. Of course, we dont change the battery and after 3 or 4 days the correct time magically appears. That is the way it has been and I assumed that this was the way it will always be. Au contraire! Today is many weeks after the fall solstice and the clock has been quiet and calm after finally setting itself to the correct time. But yesterday when I was diligently riding my stationary bike in front of the TV, I happened to glance up and the clock was moving
both hands in what appeared to be a frenzy. I called Malcolm and asked him what was going on with the clock. And did he think it needed a new battery. Of course, he said forget the battery thing. It does not need a battery. But he agreed that the clock was going crazy. Now neither of us could take our eyes off the clock and we checked it every few minutes. And finally Malcolm said to me, Check the clock, the little hand is correct. The big hand isnt and it keeps rotating around the face, but if you forget about the big hand, it almost looks correct! My idea of correct doesnt mean that the little hand is right and the big hand isnt, but then again, I am nothing if not a perfectionist. And that is almost the end of the story. Malcolm wont let me call the store where I bought the clock nor will he even consider calling the manufacturer. He keeps telling me that eventually it will straighten itself out. And of course, he was right. This morning, I turned on the TV and sat on my bike and as I began to pedal, I looked up and the stupid clock was right!! Correct and with both hands. And the only movement appeared to be the tiny movement of the hands as they kept the correct time. Now, here is my question. Why did it have the crazy movement that it had yesterday? Who fussed with the waves that tell it what to do and how to do it? Are these the same waves that control our satellites, our space program, or even our TV reception? And who is the person who is controlling the wave.? Or is no one controlling anything and it is just sending out these nutty waves on its own? Keep in mind, we are talking about a clock here, not a device of epic proportions. Now that I think about it, maybe it is the same Wave that sends me a new book for my Kindle. How this particular app works is way beyond me. I know that I can do one of two ways, either I go to Amazon.com and look at the Kindle books available, click on the one I want, and before I can stride my way into the family room, the book has appeared on my Kindle. Or I can go to Kindle Store on my Kindle, once again pick out a book that I want, click on it, and there it is on my Kindle, in my lap and I didnt even see or hear it come. Could the clock be on the same Wave? Or are there just hundreds of different waves racing through my house? Dont tell me that isnt a scary thought! Dont tell me your theory about the clock unless you really know the answer. I am confused enough without hearing any more ideas. But let me tell you this, if that stupid clock decides how it works and how it wants to make its hands work, I am going to carefully take it off the wall and place it neatly in the garbage All I really want is a clock that tells the correct time, is that too much to ask?

Senate Report:
n n n
by Senator Bill Doyle he Democratic party in Vermont lost any abolitionist support it still had in 1854, when Illinois Senator Stephen Douglas (a native of Brandon) proposed the Nebraska Act, which allowed new states in the Nebraska territory to decide for themselves whether they wanted to allow slavery. Douglas was described as a steam engine in breeches and a fountain of tobacco juice and spread-eagled oratory. Economic expansion, thought Douglas, would help the nation forget the issue of slavery. Douglas had not anticipated the vehemence of the opposition. He was assailed throughout the North by Anti-Nebraska groups, and Vermont was no exception. The Montpelier Watchman called his actions a Deed of Darkness. ...The deed was fitly done in darkness - for it was an evil deed... Every vote in the affirmative we regard as a stain upon the personal integrity of the man who casts it. Let no such man be trusted. The Democratic party was undermined further by the nomination of New Hampshires Franklin Pierce for president. Pierce supported the Nebraska Act and favored returning runaway slaves to their southern masters under the Fugitive Slave Law. The time was ripe for the rise of a new party that would gather under one stand the disaffected members of the various established parties. The Republican party in Vermont was organized on July 13, 1854, when about 600 to 800 people gathered at the statehouse in Montpelier. Vermont was the second state to organize the party, preceding the national organization by two years. A person who played an important role in the creation of the new party was the crusading editor of the Vermont Watchman, Ezekiel P. Walton. In June of 1854, Walton, disappointed that the Whig Convention had not taken a stronger stand against slavery,
The Grand Old Party is Born

editorially called for a mass state convention. Invited were all persons who are in favor of resisting ... the usurpations of the propagandists of Slavery. The meeting was set for July 4. The date was later changed to July 13 in order to mark the anniversary of the Ordinance of 1787, which dedicated to Freedom all territory northwest of the Ohio River. Had the Convention met on July 4, Montpelier, Vermont would have been given recognition as the birthplace of the new Republican party. As it turned out, the honor went to Jackson, Michigan. The convention agreed to call their new party Republican. Those attending resolved ...in as much as there are now no great measures of Legislation..., dividing political parties, except that of slavery... we do as Whigs, Free Soldiers, and Democrats, freely relinquish our former party associations and ties, to form a new party organization... we propose, and respectfully recommend to the friends of freedom in other States to cooperate and be known as REPUBLICANS. The Republican platform stated unequivocally: Our rallying cry shall henceforth be the repeal of the Fugitive Slave Law..., the abolition of slavery in the District of Columbia, the prohibition of slavery in all the Territories of the United States, and the admission of no more slave states into the Union. Senator Bill Doyle serves on the Senate Education Committee and Senate Economic Affairs Committee, and is the Senate Minority Leader. He teaches government history at Johnson State College.

Gifford Medical Center in Randolph will hold a free Heart Healthy Workshop Series this January. The series includes talks from cardiologist Dr. Bruce Andrus and registered dietitian Stacy Pelletier. Giffords renowned chefs will complete the series with a cooking demonstration and discussion. The schedule for the series is as follows: - Tuesday, Jan. 17, 6:30-7:30pm, Cardiologist Dr. Bruce Andrus talks about How to Avoid the Cath Lab: Preventive Cardiology - Tuesday, Jan. 24, 6:30-7:30pm, Registered Dietitian Stacy Pelletier discusses Taking Your Food to Heart - Tuesday, Jan. 31, 6:30-7:30pm, Gifford chefs lead a heart healthy cooking demonstration and discussion on good fats, high fiber, portion control and flavoring with spices rather than salt Food can play a major role in heart health, and with heart disease leading the nation as a killer of both men and women, holding this series made sense. Were hoping to help do our part to reduce heart disease and to improve the health of our community, said Gifford Director of Hospitality Services Ed Striebe. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, heart disease was the leading cause of death for both men and women, totaling 26 percent of all U.S. deaths in 2006, affects more than 27 million Americans and, in 2010, was projected to cost the nation $316.4 billion in health care services, medications and lost productivity.

Risk factors for heart disease include family history, older age, high cholesterol, high blood pressure, diabetes, smoking, being overweight or obese, a poor diet, physical inactivity and alcohol use. Theres not much we can do to alter our family history and age, but the remaining risk factors can be modified, said Dr. Andrus, an experienced cardiologist, who also works at DartmouthHitchcock Medical Center. What we hope to relay to participants in our series is why heart disease occurs and the steps you can take to reduce your risk. We arent expecting people to instantly start running five miles a day or cut out all of their favorite foods. Rather well be sharing ideas - and we hope inspiration - to get started or build upon the steps theyre already taking. Pelletiers talk will focus on building a healthy diet. Eating certain foods can increase your risk of heart disease. This series aims to help people, especially those living with or at risk for heart disease, learn what these foods are and how best to avoid them, said Pelletier. The Heart Healthy Workshop Series will be held in the hospitals Conference Center in Randolph. It is free and participants may attend one or all events. All are welcome, but space is limited. Please RSVP to Striebe at (802) 728-2191 at least one week prior to the class date.
ARIES (March 21 to April 19) A hectic period begins to wind down. Take time to draw some deep breaths and relax before getting into your next project. A long-absent family member makes contact. TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) Youre eager to move forward with a new challenge that suddenly dropped in your lap. But youd be wise to take this one step at a time to allow new developments to come through. GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Youre almost ready to make a commitment. A lingering doubt or two, however, should be resolved before you move ahead. An associate could provide important answers. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Caution is still the watchword as you move closer toward a decision about a new situation. If you act too fast, you might miss some vital warning signs. Go slowly and stay alert. LEO (July 23 to August 22) Your new goal looks promising, and your golden touch does much to enhance its prospects for success. In your private life, Cupid does his best to make your new relationship special. VIRGO (August 23 to September 22) That impatient side of yours is looking to goad you into moving before youre ready to take that big step. Stay calm and cool. Let things fall into place before you act. LIBRA (September 23 to October 22) A legal matter you hoped could finally be settled could be a pesky problem for a while, until all the parties agree to stop disagreeing with each other. Be patient. SCORPIO (October 23 to November 21) Partnerships -- personal or professional -- which began before the new year take on new importance. They also reveal some previously hidden risks. So be warned. SAGITTARIUS (November 22 to December 21) Your associates are firmly on your side, and that persistent problem that has caused you to delay some activities should soon be resolved to your satisfaction. CAPRICORN (December 22 to January 19) Favorable changes continue to dominate, and you should be responding positively as they emerge. Someone wants to become more involved in what youre doing. AQUARIUS (January 20 to February 18) A friend wants to share a secret that could answer some questions youve wondered about for a long time. Meanwhile, travel aspects continue to be strong. PISCES (February 19 to March 20) Stay on your new course despite so-called well-meaning efforts to discourage you. Rely on your deep sense of self-awareness to guide you to do whats right for you. BORN THIS WEEK: You have the capacity to meet challenges that others might find overwhelming, and turn them into successful ventures. (c) 2012 King Features Synd., Inc.

One of the most common questions I get from younger patients is, What's that stuff that forms inside my nose and is it ripe for picking? Well let me put everyone in the know, or should I say nose, and tell you what it is, and is s-not. It turns out that every day your nose and sinuses make about a quart of sticky slimy liquid a substance we refer to as mucus or snot. Why do we make it? The stickiness in snot is able to trap dust, dirt, germs and pollen so these substances do not travel into the lungs, inflaming them and making it difficult to breathe. When the mucus combines with dirt and other debris, it subsequently dries up and clumps, forming what we affectionately call nasal debris or a booger. When boogers do form, consider it a sign that your nose is working well. If you want to get rid of this debris, the best solution is to blow your nose, and the worst is probably to pick the boogers out of your nose which deposits germs on your fingers, and can even make your nose bleed as the dried debris is peeled off the inside lining of the nose. It's important to remember that you can pick your friends, you can pick your nose, but you cannot pick your friend's nose!
'Snot what it Seems: Why Making Mucus Is Good for You
n n n
When the mucus and debris in the nose do not dry up, it may be because the production of mucus is increased to keep more germs out of your body. This is what happens when your nose runs due to a cold, the flu, or allergies, or due to overproduction of warm mucus to warm up a cold nose in the winter. So the bottom line is that while boogers may be gross to talk about, they are actually a great filtering system to keep us healthy. Hopefully tips like this will be mucus or should I say music to your ears and allow you to sniff out the benefits of making boogers and snot in your nose each and every day.

Going back to basics; Washing basics that is. Seems like during the winter months there are many more garments in our wardrobe that need to b e d r y c l e a n e d then there are in our summer wardrobe. Heres a couple of things to consider when youre wondering how to clean your garments. Interpret the washing label: Does the label say Dry Clean Only, then obey it but if it says Hand Wash in Cold, Reshape and Lay Flat then you have options. Consider the fabric: If youre cleaning silk, acetate, velvet, wool especially lined wool should all be brought to the Dry Cleaner. Other fabrics like cotton, cashmere, acrylic and nylon can be done in the machine. Lastly, if youre not sure about the fabric but the label says its okay to hand/machine wash - Do the Colorfast test. Take a q-tip with mild detergent and dab it in a hidden place on the garment, if the color stays uniform then hand/machine wash.

Tony Stewart celebrates winning the 2011 Sprint Cup series championship after his victory in the Ford 400 at Homestead-Miami Speedway. Stewart has won three Cup titles.
BY JIM UTTER
McClatchy Newspapers
ts time to call the 2011 Sprint Cup season for what it was. Who was the best driver? What was the best race? What did NASCAR do right and wrong? Heres our take: Driver of the year: This category also could be called, You didnt see this one coming, because when the Chase for the Cup started, there werent many who expected Tony Stewart to emerge the champion. Thats exactly what he did, though, with the help of five wins in the 10 Chase races. Those wins allowed Stewart to earn the title when he and Carl Edwards finished the season finale at Homestead-Miami Speedway each with 2,403 points. Race of the year: The competition was stellar in 2011 but in all respects the best was saved for last. Stewart, guaranteed to win his third Cup title only by winning the season finale at Homestead, rallied from the back of the field twice and overcame a slow pit stop to
Tony Stewarts title run is one of many highlights of a memorable 2011 Sprint Cup season
fine but no suspension for repeatedly striking driver Kyle Busch with his fist following a Truck race at Kansas Speedway. Busch was parked for the entire race weekend for intentionally wrecking another competitor while a race was under caution at Texas Motor Speedway. Physical assaults should trump car wrecks in races every time.

win the Ford 400 with Edwards finishing second. Most improved: One year ago Brad Keselowski was celebrating his Nationwide series championship, but in the Cup series, his first year with Penske Racing was far less successful, with only two top-10 finishes in 36 races. With a new crew chief, Keselowskis 2011 season was far different. He won three races, made the Chase for the first time and fin-
ished a career-high fifth in points.

Best NASCAR decision: Ive never been a big
fan of the Chase and a lesser fan of the constant tinkering of the Chase format but the addition of two wild card spots to the Chase field this season provided loads of excitement down to the final lap of the seasons 26th race.
Worst NASCAR decision: Richard Childress

secure a race victory for Stewart that also gave him a championship, crew chief Darian Grubb came to the media center at Homestead to reveal he was told earlier in the Chase he would not be returning to the team in 2012. A wild title race weekend got even stranger. Biggest flop: On the heels of Baynes surprise win in the Daytona 500, everyone sporting a NASCAR logo on their shirt was extoling the wonders of two-car drafting and all the lead changes it produced. By the end of the season, NASCARs best and brightest were busy making sure we never see the phenomenon again.

Bringing home the purse money

Although he lost to Tony Stewart in the Chase for the Sprint Cup, Carl Edwards came out on top in race earnings. Edwards earned $8,490,064 after a season where he had one race win, 19 top-five and 26 top-10 finishes. Stewart Edwards ended the season with $6,567,771 in race winnings after five wins, nine top fives and 19 top 10s. Jimmie Johnson, who finished sixth in the final Cup points standings, was third in race winnings with $6,312,034. Kevin Harvick was fourth with $6,201,219 and Matt Kenseth was fifth with $6,187,659.
Thats Racin staff
sible to write about something and be a fan. To be a fan, Id have to have outrageous expectations and jaded analyses. I have often been advised to think like a reader, which, given my small corner of the world, is similar to think like a fan. I try to do so. I mingle. I return emails. More than ever before, this task is made easier by the social networking of Facebook and Twitter. I hear from a lot of fans. I feel their pain and, quite commonly, their anger. So heres my thinking ... about what fans are thinking. The racing of 2011 seems much better now than it actually was. The expectations for the next season are higher than they have any right to be.
Letting Fans Call The fan. Its imposShots Technically speaking, Im really not a
But its good and easy to have positive thoughts when no racing is actually going on. Naturally, the fans miss it. There are so many references to how many days remain between now and the Daytona 500, youd think they were shopping days until Christmas. This is the very best time of the year to be a fan of Dale Earnhardt Jr. Maybe things will be better. As long as things dont actually get appreciably better, this sentiment will be the same every winter. Come to think of it, it probably doesnt matter. If he wins the championship, theyll want him to win 10 races and the championship. Then every race and the championship. Those who like any current driver named Busch believe the most important issue is their talent. Those who dislike drivers named Busch believe the most important issue is behavior. This, in a nutshell, is why behavior is so important. The overwhelming majority of fans desperately want something done about tag-team drafting at Daytona and Talladega. A vocal minority likes
it just fine. Most of Tony Stewarts detractors have either gone or gone silent. Those he hasnt won over, hes shut up. Other than an Earnhardt Jr. championship, the most popular item on wish lists is a fifth Jeff Gordon championship. The longer Jimmie Johnson goes without a sixth championship, the more popular he will become. This is unquestionably too high a price to pay. He will be more popular next year because a) for once he didnt win, and b) his last name isnt Busch. *** Monte Dutton covers motorsports for The Gaston (N.C.) Gazette.

Onion River Sports will host the 3rd Annual Frozen Onion Bike race in Hubbard Park on Sunday, January 8th at 11am. This race puts a wintery spin on what would be just another mountain bike race. With multiple lap options (from 1-3 laps), the course is challenging enough for the toughest and fun for novice riders. The 3rd Annual Frozen Onion will take place on the wide roads in Hubbard Park, giving ample opportunity for sprint passes, lots of curves, and a good look at the tower! The race started when some of our customers and staff suggested we keep bike season going as long as possible! This race is a way for cyclists to have fun on their bikes in the winter, and has grown in popularity each year says Carrie Stahler, Onion River Sports Marketing and Events Director. Racers of all ability and ages are encouraged to register for the 1, 2, 3 (or even more!) lap options. Registration is $25 will open starting at 9:30am the day of the race at the New Shelter in Hubbard Park. Registration fee includes a post-race meal and raffle prizes. All proceeds from the event will go to the Vermont Mountain Bike Association. Questions: contact Carrie or Kip at Onion River Sports at 802-229-9409or events@onionriver.com.

The Department of Forests, Parks and Recreation opened the lottery for personal roadside firewood lots on January 3, 2012. The two-week registration for 83 cut-your-own lots ends January 13. Each roadside lot costs $30 and yields about three cords of wood. Roadside lots are designated standing trees that permittees cut close to forest roads on state land. Demand for roadside firewood always exceeds supply, said Commissioner Michael Synder. Harvesting your firewood is a good way for families to fulfill some of their home energy needs and enjoy physical activity on their state lands. This year 53 roadside lots are available in north and central Vermont in the towns of Duxbury, Groton, Orange, Roxbury, Sutton/Westmore and Victory. Register online at www.vtfpr.org or call 802-583-7187 for more information. The department will accept one signup per household. The department will notify winners of the roadside lots in early March. All participants must provide their own safety and wood cutting equipment. They are strongly encouraged to learn chainsaw safety skills to use this equipment on firewood lots. Many lots may require four-wheel drive vehicles to access. Mechanized skidding of wood to the roadside is not allowed. For more general information and chainsaw safety tips, visit www.vtfpr.org.

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.

CHECK HEADING:
Thank You For Saying I Saw It In
Pillow Vase
Q: I have an unusual family heirloom that was given to my great grandparents when they were married in Buffalo, N.Y., in June 1900. It is a sea-green pillow vase painted and signed by Edward Diers. Ive seen a duplicate in a pottery book, but no value was given. I dont want to sell it since its an heirloom, but I am nevertheless curious about its value. My neighbor is a pottery collector and thinks it could be worth as much as $1,000 because of its unique design. -- Barbara, Yonkers, N.Y. A: This is yet another reason why you should never put much stock in the opinions of neighbors -- even those who think they are experts --- when it comes to antiques and collectibles. I contacted several certified appraisers and they seem to agree that your pillow vase by Edward Diers could be worth as much as $30,000. *** Q: Several years ago I bought a framed picture at a tag sale of Louisa May Alcotts Orchard House in Concord. I would like to know its value and if a library would benefit in having it. -- Cynthia, Barre, Vt. A: I recommend you contact the curator of the Louisa May Alcott Orchard House
museum, 399 Lexington Road, Concord, Massachusetts 01742. *** Q: My mom recently gave me a two-gallon crock that she thinks is at least a 100 years old. It has a white glazed surface with a large 2 and Monmouth Pottery Company, Monmouth, ILL imprinted on the side. I have been offered $150 for it, but think it might be worth more. -- Laura, Hondo, Texas A: Take the $150. Your crock is worth about $75, according to the Antique Trader Stoneware and Blue and White Pottery Price Guide edited by Kyle Husfloen. I recently saw a similar crock made by the same company sell at auction for $45. *** Q: We have a copy of The New Zealand Fantail Hobbies magazine from 1972. It is 36 pages and appears to be typed on a typewriter. It is in very good condition. -- Martins, Phelps, N.Y. A: Although your publication is interesting, it does not have any real value as a collectible. Write to Larry Cox in care of King Features Weekly Service, P.O. Box 536475, Orlando, FL 32853-6475, or send e-mail to questionsforcox@ aol.com. Due to the large volume of mail he receives, Mr. Cox is unable to personally answer all reader questions.

Can Rabbit be Trained?

DEAR PAWS CORNER: My pet rabbit, a lop-ear named Jake, seems pretty active and alert. He flicks his ears when I hold a treat out for him, and I noticed he does the same when I move my hand in a similar way even when there is no treat. Do you think a rabbit could be trained similar to the way a dog is trained? -- Clarissa T., Butte, Mont. DEAR CLARISSA: According to animal trainer Barbara Heidenreich, its entirely possible to do so; in fact, shes trained two of her rabbits to do agility courses. Heidenreich uses positive-reinforcement training to teach her rabbits to perform on cue. One lop-eared rabbit, Loretta, runs a seven-piece agility course, retrieves, spins in a circle and digs on cue. Loretta was adopted as an adult and learned most of her tricks in just a few weeks, according to a promotional release by pet behavior and training-products company Good Bird Inc. Heidenreich says that positive reinforcement training isnt just for teaching pet tricks; owners also can use this method to address problem behaviors and, overall, get more connected to their pets. As these fluffy animals become more and more popular as pets, she feels that learning to do more than just care for rabbits is necessary but also rewarding. If youd like to learn more about training Jake to do tricks, visit www.bunnytraining.com, Heidenreichs site.

by Samantha Weaver It was American essayist Logan Pearsall Smith who made the following sage observation: It is the wretchedness of being rich that you have to live with rich people. The word avocado is derived from a South American Indian word that means testicle. When the miniskirt was introduced to the world in the 1960s, the reaction was swift and often harsh. Women who wore them in the Malagasy Republic were sentenced to 10 days in jail. Congolese police arrested 300 women for wearing the new style, and Egyptian law branded the garment as indecent. In Caracas, Venezuela, the clergy got involved; churches admonished women to give up their minis or be condemned to hell. Perhaps the seeming overreaction wasnt entirely unjustified, considering the effect the miniskirt had in some places. It was reported that two women wearing minis caused a two-hour traffic jam in downtown Cairo, and a 63-year-old man in Rio De Janeiro was sentenced to three days in jail after biting the legs of the miniskirt-clad woman seated next to him on a bus.

There was an amazing lack of snow depth across not just parts of Vermont and the Northeast but in the Mid West, lower Great Lakes and many parts of the Mountain West. This has been plaguing the Ski Industry as a whole, not only here in Vermont but in many U.S. resorts and in eastern Canada and even in Europe. Last Wednesday was a shot in the arm form any local resorts where from about Sugarbush and Middlebury Snow Bowl received an average of over a foot in the last week or so. This natural snow was also aided by snow making. The graphic shows the darker blue and bluish purple with snow depth in the 20 to 40 inch range and the lighter blues in the 2-4 range. Comparison of these two years taken both on December the 29th shows the difference and of note in the mountain West as compared to this time last year. After having some recent snowfall at least in parts of the northern Green Mountains last week, feel happy it is not as bone dry as such places as the Tahoe Basin and some parts of the Colorado Rockies. Also interesting to examine is the rich consistency in snow depths in Coastal Mountains of British Columbia, and the northern Cascades of Washington state. Also note our neighbors in Quebec across the Laurentions where snow depths were also more consistent. The departures from normal were over a foot at places like Buffalo New York, Grand Rapids Michigan deep in Lake
Effect country was a remarkable 21.1 inches below normal in snowfall. Of Course much of this has had to do with a general weather pattern featuring storms coming inland in the Pacific Northwest tracking south into the Rockies and drying out before turning east and allowing too much warm air entrained while storms head eastward.

Q: A neighbor of mine said that he drains his hot water heater twice a year to keep it clear. Wont draining the heater damage it? -- Sal P., Tallahassee, Fla. A: Actually, draining the water heater can help it heat water more efficiently and even extend its service life. The trick is to turn it off and let the water cool for a few hours. Then, shut off the water supply to the heater so it wont refill as you drain it. Note: If you need to turn off the water supply to the entire house or part of the house in order to turn off the heaters supply, open the taps on the other sinks in your house. Attach a length of garden hose to the water-heater drain spigot, just long enough to comfortably hang over the edge of the bucket youll use to catch the drained water. (If a utility sink is nearby, thats an even better option; run the hose to the sink.) Turn the spigot on slowly, until its fully open. Drain the tank as far as possiblethis could mean detaching the hose and catching the last of the water in a bucket. Then, close the spigot and turn the water supply back on to fill the tank, and turn on the heater. If you had to turn on the other taps in the house, once the water supply is back on, turn the taps off. (You want water to run through them after a shutoff to prevent air from getting trapped in the pipes.) Draining the water heater once or twice a year will remove sediment that can build up due to a number of factors. Its not always done in the wintertime, but if you have a day or two that is above freezing and you can let the heater cool overnight, go for it.
