Samantha Sandretto graduated from Pennsylvania State University during the Winter Ceremony on December 17, 2011. Samantha was also named to the Dean's List for her final semester, with a GPA of 3.96. Samantha's degree is in Psychology Neuroscience. She will be continuing her education in Manchester NH as she has been accepted into an advanced nursing degree program at MCPHS. Samantha is from Moretown and is a 2008 graduate of Harwood Union High School. Northfield artist, Jeneane Lunn, is participating in the 2012 Sketchbook Project sponsored by the Brooklyn Art Library. Lunn chose the theme, I Remember You, as a way to commemorate her daughter and the other people buried in Green Mount Cemetery in Montpelier. I have wanted to draw the beautiful statues in the cemetery for the last five years that my daughters ashes have been there. The sketchbook theme gave me the impetus to finally do the project. The drawings, which are in pencil and watercolor, are intentionally unprotected to mimic the way the elements wear away the stones and memories in the cemetery. Sketchbooks will be on display at the Brooklyn Art Library and on tour starting in April. Images from Lunns book can be seen at www.arthousecoop.com/users/ Jeneanelunn/artwork Henry Marckres, of Brookfield, was recently recognized by the International Maple Syrup Institute for his outstanding efforts to educate syrup producers. Also honored were Sumner Dole, of New Hampshire, and Kathy Hopkins, of Maine, who along with Marckres, founded the Maple Grading School in 2004. The Maple Grading School is the only program in North America educating sugar makers about how to grade syrup and address off flavors. In November, twenty-four participants - hailing from five states and Quebec - gathered for the 8th annual Maple Grading School in Berlin, VT.

Staff. Sgt. Dylan J. Maynard is a Squad Leader assigned to Company C, 1st Battalion, 75th Ranger Regiment at Hunter Army Airfield, Georgia. Maynard has been awarded the Silver Star for his actions, November 16, 2010 in support of Operation Enduring Freedom. Maynard confronted and destroyed several Taliban fighters at close range as they attempted to maneuver against friendly forces. When his squad leader became mortally wounded, Maynard moved through intense effective enemy fire to recover another fellow Ranger who had been shot and had rolled down a slope towards the enemy position. The Silver Star distinguishes an individual by extraordinary heroism against an enemy of the United States. After graduating from Hazen Union High School in Hardwick, Maynard joined the U.S. Army from his hometown of Woodbury. Upon completion of One Station Unit Training, the Basic Airborne Course, and the Ranger Assessment and Selection Program, all at Fort Benning, Ga., Maynard was assigned to Company C, 1st Battalion, 75th Ranger Regiment, where he has served as a grenadier, automatic rifleman, Team Leader, and currently as a Squad Leader. In addition to the Silver Star, he has also received the Joint Service Achievement Medal, Army Achievement Medal, Army Good Conduct Medal, National Defense Service Medal, Afghanistan Campaign Medal with Campaign Star, Iraq Campaign Medal with Campaign Star, Global War on Terrorism Service Medal, Army Service Ribbon, and two Purple Hearts. Staff Sgt. Maynard's Ranger platoon has also been nominated for the Presidential Unit Citation for extraordinary heroism for displaying gallantry, determination and esprit de corps in accomplishing its mission under extreme difficulty and hazardous conditions. Staff Sgt. Maynard was also selected to represent the 75th Ranger Regiment at the U.S. Army All-American Bowl on January 7, 2012 in San Antonio, Texas. Maynard is the son of Kym Maynard of Montpelier, and grandson of Mr. and Mrs. Robert Withey of Montpelier.

Next stop for "The Hale Street Gang: Portraits in Writing" is Lebanon, New Hampshire. The multimedia exhibit, which grew out of a memoir-writing project at the Randolph Vermont Senior Center, will open at the AVA Art Center on January 13. It will be shown in tandem with works by Bethel artist DAnn Calhoun Fago. An opening reception will be held from 5 to 7pm. The two exhibits have been touring independently since the fall of 2010, when Portraits in Writing premiered at the Vermont Folklife Center in Middlebury and Calhoun Fago was honored with a show in the Governors Reception Hall in Montpelier. The exhibits were paired for the first time at the Chandler Gallery in Randolph. Calhoun Fago, who turned 94 in December, is also in the memoir-writing group. Braintree photographer Jack Rowells larger-than-life blackand-white portraits of the 80- and 90-year-old memoirists are the focal point of Portraits in Writing. Rowell became interested in their work when he attended a reading at the Senior Center in the fall of 2009. These folks were telling stories about people and

places I remembered from my own childhood, he says, places like the Randolph playground and Tunbridge, where my grandmother lived. People all over the country have responded to this project, says Sara Tucker, who facilitates the weekly writers circle at the Senior Center. The word I hear most often is inspiring. We all want our life experience to count for something, but writing is hard work. Rowells 24 framed portraits are being readied for the AVA opening by the Corner Frame Shop in Randolph, whose owner, Sheri Voghell, has provided ongoing support. Initial funding came from a variety of sources, including the Vermont Community Foundation, Lamson Howell, Randolph National Bank, and some 50 individual donors. The Hale Street Gang memoir-writing project continues to fund itself through sales of its books, available in local bookstores and from Amazon.com. The Hale Street Gang: Portraits in Writing will be at the AVA Art Center from January 13 through February 10. AVA is at 11 Bank Street, just off the green. Info: 603-448-3117

Luck, Curator of The Abby Aldrich Rockefeller Folk Art Center in Williamsburg, Virginia has stated that works produced by GRACE artists quite often exhibit extraordinary aesthetic quality and appeal, and they may be judged entirely on their own merits.

SAVE ALL THESE LOGOS! ADD AS NECESSARY! COPY AND PASTE INTO AD...

Ainsworth Public Library's Centennial Celebration was a hit! Over 130 people filled the Williamstown Middle High School cafeteria to celebrate the 100th birthday of the Ainsworth Public Library on the afternoon of Saturday, December 17th. Suzette Bollard, Orange North Supervisor Union Superintendent, was the master of ceremonies and also shared a brief history of the library. Several students from Kim Delaurier's middle school classes read wonderful original poetry describing their town of Williamstown and how much it meant to them. Martha Reid, the Vermont State Librarian, presented the three Williamtown Elementary School winners of the Bookmark Contest "What Reading Means to Me..." their award and a $10 gift certificate for Scholastic books. Naveda Orton (gr. K-1), Erin Rivers (gr.2-3), and Haley Trottier (gr.4-5) were also congratulated by Flora O'Hara, Ainsworth Public Libary Director and Kathy Ducharme, a representative from the Friends of Ainsworth Public Library. Those at the Celebration were treated to amazing elementary and high school student displays of bookmarks, family genealogy, 3-D creations of Williamstown, poetry, interesting facts about Williamstown as well as a great trifold display of Ainsworth Public Library history by the Williamstown Historical Society. It was wonderful to have so many people in town involved in this celebration. Senator Mark MacDonald read and presented Florence Winters and Ann Hegarty, longtime Ainsworth Public Library Trustees, with an official document from Governor Peter Shumlin which

proclaimed December 17, 2011 to be Ainsworth Public Library Day. Adam Boyce and Ben Koenig performed on fiddle and guitar, respectively, much to the enjoyment of the crowd. Some even danced a bit while many others clapped along. The guest speaker, Willen Lange, kept everyone entertained with his stories of life and especially the tricks to keeping telemarketers on the phone until they finally hang up on you. During the breaks in the program, people continued to buy raffle tickets for the large handmade raffle basket filled to overflowing with Vermont made items ranging from chocolates, toys, a Keurig machine and k-cups, and a hand-blown glass ornament to gift certificates to a spa and even a 1-hour private flight over Lake Champlain. The astonished basket winner at the end of the program was Judith Prive, of Barre. The books signed by Vermont authors and illustrators garnered a great deal of interest and their silent auction bids created some healthy competition proving to be an effective way to boost the fundraising efforts of the Friends of Ainsworth Public Library while providing special books to the participants All in all, it was an afternoon not soon to be forgotten. The volunteers who put in many months of preparation deserve special thanks and rest. And the many generous businesses and authors who donated items for the event are greatly appreciated. The Librarian, Flora O'Hara, especially thanks her very capable and creative Assistant, Roberta Tracy, for spearheading the entire event and keeping everyone focused on producing an amazing celebration. It could not have been done without her. Happy 100th Birthday, Ainsworth Public Library!

But you get to take home a bundle of perfection so what could be better? Zion Javier Brown is indeed the perfect ending to 2011. He was born on December 30 and weighed 8lb/12oz. When we stopped by he was alert and ready to go home. His mama, Keri Brown, is quite smitten with her beautiful son and we hear that 13-year old big sister Julianna is thrilled as well. The Brown family lives in Montpelier. We wish them a happy and healthy new year.

Capitol Notebook bY JoHN oDUM

he first week of the 2012 legislative session had a very distinct flavor from the first week of last years. As opposed to 2011s sense of uncharted territory in the face of a new Governor, this year lawmakers, lobbyists, and activists all had a sense of the lay of the land, going into an election year where the battle lines are already being drawn. As such, the week was dominated by message-sending. Political actors were moving with blazing speed to establish themselves either as policy agenda-setters, or as players who were not-to-beignored in the coming months. All of which suggests that the hopes of some to have a speedy session focused only on the budget and Irene rebuilding may not be realized. Here are some examples: Governor Shumlins State of the State Address. Many have already noted the exuberant delivery of the Governors addresss persistently positive Vermont Strong message. By acting as cheerleader-in-chief during the ongoing tropical storm recovery process, Shumlin can raise morale as well as remind Vermont voters of the universal acclaim he has received for the states response to the crisis. But Shumlin also used the opportunity to lay down some lines in the sand to both sides of the political spectrum, and try to send the message that he intended to remain the sheriff in town. To the right, he made it clear that he would not deviate from those parts of his agenda they deplore such as health care reform. To the left, he repeated his commitment to resist calls for increased taxes on wealthy Vermonters. With the political capital he has accumulated in the disaster recovery process, he may well prove one tough sheriff indeed. Senator Randy Brock. Brock, who is all but certain to be the Republican gubernatorial candidate in November, sent a clear message that he has no intention of allowing Shumlin to take the

tax issue which has long been the meat and potatoes of GOP having confidence in the Gov Ops committee, even though the electioneering off the table. In citing last years increase of the Senate took the same approach the last time redistricting came Hospital Provider Tax, Brock is letting Shumlin know that he will up. Despite support for the move from Gov Ops Chair Jeanette challenge him as vigorously on taxation issues as he would any White, Galbraith held firm and cast one of two votes against the other Democrat. Activists. It usually takes a few weeks of committee delibera- move (the other was cast by Senator Anthony Pollina of Washington tions and bill-wrangling before the activists in various-colored County). Galbraith was sending a message. In his objection to the new shirts and buttons show up in the halls of the State House. This year they were there on Day One. Red-shirted supporters of the committee, he took a swipe at the old boys club who run the Vermont Workers Center were out in force, and coalesced around Senate. Everybody knew who he was a noontime press conference. The VWC worked hard on Galbraith was sending a message. In his talking about. Its an unwritten rule in the Shumlins behalf during the objection to the new committee, he took a Senate that, to get anything done, last election, focused as they were on the health care reform swipe at the old boys club who run the you have to have one of four Senators on your side: Campbell, plan championed by the Senate. Senator Dick Mazza (D-Grand Governor. This year, however, Everybody knew who he was talking about. Isle), Senator Vince Illuzzi they were there to make it (R-Essex-Orleans), or Senator clear that they could not be taken for granted. The red shirts in attendance loudly proclaimed Dick Sears (D-Bennington). Sears and Illuzzi sit on the new redistheir intention to muster what grassroots energy they could on tricting committee. This is not to say that those four Super-Senators always get behalf of a budget that would fund social programs adequately even if that meant increased taxes on upper income citizens, put- their way, but there is a clear hierarchy in the Senate, and those four inhabit a stratum all their own. It is a situation many of the ting them in potential conflict with Governor Shumlin. Individual lawmakers. Lawmakers have been an orderly lot of newer members bristle at. Galbraiths message (as well as the message sent by Chittenden late, but there are signs that may be changing. Case in point: Senator Peter Galbraith (D-Windham). Galbraith Senator Philip Baruth in casting the lone vote to overturn a guber a prominent international diplomat objected to a motion from natorial veto the same morning): dont expect me to obediently do Senate President Pro Tem John Campbell to move the issue of what Im told this year. All told, Vermonters may be in for a lively legislative season. redistricting out of the Government Operations Committee and John Odum is a longtime political blogger and columnist. He into a new committee specifically created to address the issue. Galbraith raised eyebrows when he accused Campbell of not lives in Montpelier.

Montpeliers Onion River Chorus, led by Brian Webb, presents two performances of early baroque music from Venice and Rome: Saturday, January 21 at 7:30pm at Barre Presbyterian Church (the green church across from St. Monicas on Seminary St.); and Sunday, January 22 at 3pm at Christ Church in Montpelier. Portions of the program also feature the select chamber choir Dolce Lingua, led by Larry Gordon. Admission, at the door, is $12, $8 students, $25 family rate. For information call 476-4300. The concert includes music by Monteverdi, Cavalli, Lotti, Marenzio, and Alessandro and Domenico Scarlatti, spanning the years from the 1580s through the early 1700s. The first three spent most of their careers working at St. Marks Cathedral in Venice, while the latter three worked mostly in Rome. The largest scale work on the program is Monteverdis unaccompanied Mass for Four Voices, which was published posthumously in 1650. Throughout his career, Monteverdi continued to compose both in the older renaissance polyphonic style and in the more dramatic concerted style. The Mass uses the former style, with extensive and highly refined use of the technique of imitation. The smaller Dolce Lingua ensemble will also perform three madrigals by Monteverdi, featuring amorous love poetry by the great Petrarch in ultra dramatic settings with lots of chromatic harmonies and sudden contrasts. Two other larger works on the program are both psalm settings accompanied by a small baroque band of two violins and continuo: Monteverdis Beatus Vir and Cavallis Lauda Jerusalem. Both pieces alternate massive choral tutti sections with dancelike triple time passages. In these works the sometimes florid solo sections are performed by singers from the Dolce Lingua ensemble, particularly featuring visiting tenors Gideon Crevoshay and Carl Linich. The band includes dance musicians Sarah Blair and Viveka Fox on violins, Indigo Ruth Davis on cello and Lynnette Combs on portative organ. The fifteen singers of Dolce Lingua will also perform sections of the Missa La Stella by Domenico Scarlatti, another work in the older unaccompanied style, but rather more angular and dramatic than the Monteverdi Mass. The remainder of the program inludes smaller scale motets by Luca Marenzio (more famous for his vast output of madrigals), Antonio Lotti (his famous eight-voice Crucifixus), and Alessandro Scarlatti (Domenicos father). Onion River Chorus is open to any interested singers and rehearses Monday nights at Bethany Church in Montpelier. The spring program will include works by contemporary composers, including Colorado composer Toby Tenenbaums wonderful settings of poetry by Rumi, and other works by Vermont composers. Reharsals begin January 30 and new singers are urged to join then.

Editor: On December 11, 2011, the UN Convention on Climate Change agreed to maintain international climate change mitigation efforts. New legally enforceable accords will be fully in place by 2020. One of the most important outcomes of this convention was the specification of waste management as a key instrument for climate change mitigation. The delegates demonstrated wisdom and foresight in acknowledging how critical sustainable waste management practices are to our future health. We are hopeful that this recognition will help to re-invigorate interest in sustainable, zero waste management practices in Vermont and beyond. Practicing the 3Rs (Reducing/Reusing/Recycling) and composting of organic matter are still the best individual practices to help reduce waste and achieve zero waste goals. Central Vermonts recycling rates have stalled at around 30% and for many the importance of waste reduction isnt even on the radar. We can improve recycling rates if each individual, family, and business makes recycling a standard operating practice. Its easy and it costs less than throwing something in the trash (landfill). We can also re-think our consumptive habits, emphasizing reuse and reduction strategies. Such thrift is a Vermont tradition worth honoring. Its time for our society to move past the throw-away mental-

Editor: The American Lung Association applauds the Obama Administration for adopting public health safeguards to reduce mercury and toxic air pollution from power plants. The new Mercury and Air Toxics Standards for Power Plants are long overdue and will reduce the harm from air pollution like mercury, lead, arsenic and a host of other pollutants. Air pollution emitted by coal-fired power plants contains 84 of the 187 hazardous pollutants identified for control by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). Many of these pollutants, such as dioxins, arsenic, and lead, can cause cancer and cardiovascular disease; harm the kidneys, lungs, and nervous system; and even kill. The Mercury and Air Toxics Standards will reduce these pollutants and prevent 130,000 asthma attacks and 11,000 premature deaths each year. These new proposed standards are especially critical to those of us in New England since we are at the tailpipe of the nations air pollution exhaust system. We need a strong Clean Air Act to protect us from secondhand smog. According to our 2011 State of the Air report, thousands of Vermont people and visitors are put at risk from the health effects from air pollution each year.

MEMBER CENTRAL VERMONT CHAMBER OF COMMERCE

by Kimberly B. Cheney ruce Carrolton was charged with two different felony crimes of lewd and lascivious behavior based on the statement of a 16-year-old girl that he rubbed her back, stomach, breasts, and vaginal area while she was lying in bed. His public defender moved the Court to dismiss one of the charges, asserting the events were one act, occurring at the same time and so were not multiple crimes. To charge two crimes, he argued would double the penalty authorized by the legislature for the crime. The trial judge agreed. He ruled the case was governed by a seventeen-year-old case, State v. Perrillo, which on similar facts ruled that only one crime had been committed. He ordered the State to charge only one offense. The State was allowed to appeal to the Supreme Court before trial. It claimed that Perrillo should be overruled because it undermined the public welfare, wrought individual injustice, or impeded the administration of justice. From the perspective of the victim, and the general public, if the defendant touches two distinct intimate body parts, each offensive touching should be a separate crime warranting separate punishment. Perrillo, the State said, was wrongly decided, and was out of date and inconsistent with the trend of recent decisions by other courts. The Court could have simply agreed with the trial judges decision relying on its prior decision in Perrillo. The legal principle of stare decisis, meaning simply that an issue once decided should be followed, would justify doing so. However, Justice Denise John-

If You Rub a Girls Back, Stomach, Breasts and Genitals in One Time Period, Have You Committed More than One Crime?
son (since retired) writing for the entire Court, carefully reviewed all the States arguments. It reviewed the Perrillo case and concluded it made sense. The Court doubted the Legislature intended to increase the potential sentence exponentially depending on the number of touches in a single episode. Therefore, one event, taking place during a short period of time, even if there were multiple touchings, should be charged as one crime. It would be different if the defendant had, say, touched a breast and then had forcible intercourse, or had fondled the girl once, left her alone and came back and did the identical thing again. Such conduct would require the defendant to decide to do two distinct acts, and punishment for each purposefully different act separated in time would be warranted. The Court also reviewed the States claim that there was a legal trend in decisions away from Perrillo. Justice Johnson reviewed all the cases cited by the State and found there was no such strong trend so the States claim was overstated. The Court affirmed the trial judges decision. Justice Johnson concluded the Court is not a slavish adherent to the principle of stare decisis but without proof of a need for change based on our communitys ever-evolving circumstances and experiences it would adhere to prior decisions. The willingness of the Court to reexamine old cases in light of the opinions of other Courts, and experience, is commendable. The case stands for the proposition that the law is a living social guide, not a fossil, but change must be justified. State v. Carrolton 2011 VT 131

January 11, 2012

know that I am getting old when I drive down the Barre-Montpelier Road and get so nostalgic that driving is difficult! I am sure that many of you remember Harrys Department Store. Leaving Waitsfield and making the trip to The City was a big deal and regardless of whether I really needed anything or not, Harrys was always on my list of things to do. Once inside the store, I always felt that they thought I was someone special, because Harry himself always greeted me with a welcoming smile and asked if I needed his help. If by chance Harry wasnt there, either his wife or one of his two sons took over the role of greeter. And as I think back, I cant remember ever going to Harrys and not finding what I was looking for. When Harrys closed, a part of good old-fashioned service and friendliness ended too. I would be very remiss if I didnt also mention Merle Woods and The Country Store! For those of you who are too young or are a newcomer to the area from other towns or states, let me tell you about Merle Woods. I dont know if Merle owned The Country Store or not. It was located beside and behind Harrys and it was the place to buy your produce and food stuffs. And Merle was on the radio and in only a minute, he was able to list off everything that was on sale and available that day. I know that many of us tried to imitate Merle and how he was able to complete his long and involved list in only a minute but I dont think that any of us were ever able to do it. I know why Harrys had to close but I have no idea what happened to The Country Store and Merle Woods. If I had to guess, I would assume that the big box store grocery stores just put this touch of Vermont out of business. Let me tell you that I dont know one store, and I am talking about for miles and miles around, that has the feel of fun and anticipation of bargains that were available at either Harrys or The Country Store. I know that I have mentioned over the years how much customer service is important to me. Whenever I went to Arthurs Department Store in Morrisville, I was always met and greeted by the

most pleasant people. Of course, one of those people was usually Theresa Brault, the wife of Arthur, and shopping with her to help was not just pleasant, but fun. Now, of course, Arthurs has gone the way of most customer-friendly Vermont stores. Luces of Waterbury, Homer Fitts in Barre, Arthurs in Morrisville and I am sure that there are others, are gone! And let me tell you that if you have the opportunity to go to any big box department store you will not find the same quality of service that these store provided. No one knows your name, what you want or how to help you nor do they care. Many wonder why so many people are buying online instead of shopping in person in the big stores, well I can tell them why. You can only be ignored or worse, treated with little or no politeness or respect just so many times, and then it is over. It is much easier and less stressful and frustrating to sit at home and look on the computer. And until someone realizes that a helpful, pleasant employee is worth paying well, most of us will not only shop on the internet, we will tell our friends how easy it really is! There are so many things that I miss that even I realize that my age is catching up with me. I remember Officer Friendly who was the policeman who kept my town when I was growing up, safe and conflict free. I remember the sheriff in the Mad River Valley who picked up the milk from the Valley farmers and kept the peace too. Now Officer Friendly has gone the way of Captain Kangaroo and the Valley Sheriff has been replaced by a guy whose only aim in life is to catch someone speeding two miles over the posted limit. My children are now grown up and I am so happy that their memories are ones of a small town that actually cared about its residents. But I worry about my grandchildren. I dont think that they can even conceive of small, friendly stores or police whose main job is to keep them safe and happy. But maybe I am wrong, and they will remember things in a special way, too. I sure hope so. And for the rest of us, let me know if you can imitate Merle Woods and reel off whatever is for sale within a minute. I assure you that I no longer know anyone who remembers him or how to do it. But it sure was fun when he signed on and let it rip! Boy, I sure am getting old!

Lincoln Elected President

he new Republican party spread quickly throughout the North. In 1855 a Republican was elected speaker of the U. S. House. And in 1856 Republicans ran their first presidential candidate, John Fremont. He lost to the Democrat, James Buchanan, but in 1860 the GOP took over the White House with Abraham Lincoln and stayed there until 1888. The depth of Vermonts concern for abolition was no better expressed than in a report by a committee of the Vermont Senate in 1855: Born of a resistance to arbitrary power - her first breath that of freedom - her first voice a declaration of equal rights of man how could her people be otherwise than haters of slavery - how can they do less than sympathize with every human being and every community which asserts the rights of all men to blessings like their own? Vermonts resistance to the concept of slavery, from the constitution of 1777 to formation of the Republican party shaped the states commitment to the Civil War. In the course of the war, Vermont had 34,328 men under arms, mostly volunteers. That was more than twice the number of Vermonters who fought in World War I. Vermont had a greater proportion of her men killed in battle than any other northern state. Her troops were the first to entrench on Confederate soil, and the first to attack Confederate fortifications. This was an extraordinary record for a small, rural state.

Fractals of Change By Tom Evslin

he US economy is improving. This improvement is inconvenient for both major political parties so it isnt getting much attention or credit. The improvement is slow but might be faster if it got the recognition it deserves since improvement depends on consumer and business confidence. The facts are that unemployment is coming down at an accelerating rate despite continued reduction in the government sector. The significant four week average for new unemployment claims is down. Consumer sales are up over last year. Inventories are still lean. Personal balance sheets are much more balanced than they were before the recession. Housing prices may finally have stabilized with the needle pointing right at affordable especially with prevailing very low interest rates. The balance sheets of large corporations are stuffed with investable cash. The price of oil always important to the American economy - has slid way off its highs and may have further to fall. Meanwhile abundant American natural gas is keeping a lid on electricity prices and creating jobs in both extractive and energy-dependent manufacturing businesses; some jobs are even coming back from China. Farmers are making scads of money. The rest of the world has apparently decided that the US is the best of a bad lot and is parking its money here, keeping our interest rates down and potentially making more capital available to invest. So how come this isnt good news? Well, if youre a partisan Republican, it means that the Obama administration hasnt completely wrecked the economy and he might even be able to run for reelection in an upturn perish the thought; hell certainly take credit for it if it happens.

A Prescription Drug Abuse Workgroup, with 75 members from varied professions, issued a final report in December that outlines a statewide approach to actively address the mounting problem of prescription drug abuse in Vermont. The workgroup, convened jointly by the Vermont Departments of Health and Public Safety, has met quarterly since 2008 to discuss possible solutions to the problem in four focus areas: education and community prevention/ treatment, monitoring, disposal, and law enforcement. Vermont ranks 26th worst of all states in the nonmedical use of pain relievers, and has the second highest per capita rate of all states for admissions to treatment for opiates for 20- to 29-year olds. Improved prescriber education for medical students, public education on proper disposal of drugs, better informed patients and patient verification, enhanced law enforcement efforts and training, and more widespread use of the Vermont Prescription Monitoring System are among the solutions proposed in the report. Prescription drug abuse is a major public health concern and we knew for the Health Department and Public Safety to adequately address the problem an all-hands-on deck approach was required, said Health Commissioner Harry Chen, MD. The safe dispensing of these controlled medications, which serve a useful purpose, is a major priority for us and our partners statewide. The Health Department, University of Vermont College of Medicine, Vermont Medical Society, Office of Professional Regulation,

Prescription Drug Abuse Workgroup Issues Report

Northern New England Poison Center, Department of Health Access, Department of Baking, Insurance, Securities and Health Care Administration (BISHCA), Vermont Boards of Pharmacy and Medical Practice, and the Vermont State Police contributed recommendations to the final report. Special opiate training for medical residents at the University of Vermont College of Medicine and a best-practice standardized narcotic agreement that can be used by the Vermont medical community are among the specific action plans. The report also recommends that all prescribers of controlled substances use the Vermont Prescription Monitoring System. Currently, 1,370 of the 2,000 prescribers of controlled substances (physicians, dentists, nurses and physician assistants) in Vermont are registered with the VPMS, which went into effect statewide in 2009. The report also recommends that law enforcement address sources of narcotics that are diverted for improper use through illegal sale and distribution by health care professionals and workers, doctor shopping, forged prescriptions, employee theft, pharmacy theft, and obtaining prescriptions over the internet. The workgroup hoped to bring the issue of prescription drug abuse to the forefront and discuss the idea of an awareness campaign across the state, and to educate pharmacists and prescribers in a systematic way. The Vermont plan is modeled after a national plan by the Office of National Drug Control Policy (ONDCP). For the full report, visit healthvermont.gov.

Vitamin D may play a role in the prevention of colds and the flu. Vitamin D is naturally produced by the body when exposed to direct sunlight. It is also in fortified foods and available in supplement form. In a new study, researchers analyzed data on Vitamin D levels and respiratory infections for 19,000 adults. They found that those with the lowest levels of Vitamin D were 36% more likely to have had recent upper respiratory infection than people with higher levels. The risk was even greater for those with asthma or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Check with your doctor or pharmacist to see if you're getting enough Vitamin D.

Beth Rusnock has been named president and chief executive officer of the National Life Group Charitable Foundation. Beth brings passion and compassion to her new assignment, said Mehran Assadi, president and CEO of National Life Group. National Life Group has a long and distinguished history of doing well by doing good. But there is much more we can do. National Life Group and National Life Group Charitable Foundation support a wide range of nonprofits that focus on providing homes, heat, health, education, the arts and recreation. Our goal is to improve the quality of life wherever we see an opportunity to make a difference, said Rusnock, who in her new role will also oversee corporate marketing and community relations for National Life Group. In the past year the company and the foundation have made substantial donations to Vermont flood relief efforts, provided assistance to tornado-damaged schools in Joplin, Missouri, and contributed to an innovative school program in Texas. The foundation makes grants annually to roughly 100 nonprofits, ranging from the

Beth Rusnock to Head National Life Group Charitable Foundation

National Life Cancer Treatment Center to the Veterans Place, a haven for homeless veterans, and to the Center for Financial Literacy at Champlain College. Separate from the activities of the foundation, National Life Group also provides financial support for a wide range of events and organizations, such as the Lake Champlain Dragonboat Festival, the Everybody Wins literacy program, the Vermont Mountaineers, Lost Nation Theater, and the Peoples Health and Wellness Center. In addition, National Life Group employees contribute hundreds of hours of volunteer time in their communities. Each employee is allowed 40 hours a year to volunteer in the community on company time. Rusnock, who joined National Life Group in 2006, has led the companys corporate branding initiative and overseen both life insurance and annuity marketing. Prior to joining National Life Group she worked for ING in both Connecticut and Pennsylvania. Rusnock resides in Jericho, and replaces Martha Trombley Oakes, who has been named associate dean of institutional advancement at Vermont Technical College.

John Hollar, a director of the law firm Downs Rachlin Martin PLLC, recently presented a check for $1,000 to Central Vermont Home Health and Hospice on behalf of the DRM Community Fund. The grant helps support the mission of the full service, not-for-profit visiting nurse association to provide high quality, medically-necessary home health and hospice care to all Central Vermonters, regardless of ability to pay. As a member of the CVHHH board, I am aware of the critical role that CVHHH plays in promoting health and providing long-term care services to the citizens of Central Vermont, said Hollar. It gives us great pleasure to support both the organization and the citizens who benefit from their good work. Founded in 1911, Central Vermont Home Health and Hospice is one of the largest home health agencies in Vermont. The DRM Community Fund was launched in 2000 to celebrate the law firm's 50th anniversary. Since then, DRM has awarded more than $200,000 in small grants to approximately 200 private, non-profit organizations in Vermont and western New Hampshire to support innovative,

Downs Rachlin Martin PLLC is a full-service law firm with more than 60 attorneys and offices in St. Johnsbury, Brattleboro, Burlington, and Montpelier, Vt., Lebanon N.H., and Plattsburgh, N.Y.

On Saturday, December 10th, Vermonters shopped 'til they dropped and raised over $5,000 to fight hunger. Lennys Shoe & Apparel held their 2nd annual Charity Sale in December, and the store and its customers collectively raised over $5,000 for Lennys chosen charity partner, the Vermont Foodbank. Last week, Lennys owner Mark McCarthy presented that donation to Vermont Foodbank CEO John Sayles. Lennys customers purchased tickets, for $5 each, to the one-day sale. With that ticket, customers qualified for substantial discounts on top gift items throughout the store. More than 550 tickets were sold, and 100% of the proceeds from those ticket sales went directly to the Foodbank. Each $5 ticket sold enabled the Foodbank to help provide 30 meals for Vermonters in need. In addition to the ticket proceeds, Lennys also donated a percentage of the days sales to benefit the Foodbank, making for a total donation of $5,148. Were happy with the success of this event, and were so pleased to be able to make this kind of donation to the Vermont Foodbank, said Lennys owner Mark McCarthy. Wed like to thank our loyal customers for their support -- not only of a local business like Lennys -- but also of the Vermont Foodbank. Thats the true spirit of the holiday season, and were so proud to have

The American Cancer Society is seeking volunteers for Daffodil Days, a beloved program to welcome spring and help raise funds and awareness to fight cancer and to create a world with more birthdays. Offer hope to cancer patients by volunteering to assist with event planning and development in your community. In appreciation for their contribution to Daffodil Days, donors receive daffodil bouquets or may also choose to send anonymous Gifts of Hope to cancer patients in treatment. It is about more than just giving beautiful flowers; it is an opportunity to share hope for a world where cancer never steals another year from anyones life. Tara Pacacha knows full well the impact of Daffodil Days. Pacacha remembers the day she received a call from her mother, a lung cancer patient in treatment in 2006. She told me that a very special nurse had just brought her beautiful daffodils, says Pacacha. I could hear my moms smile over the phone. Because the Gift of Hope made her mother so happy, Pacacha purchases daffodils and a Gift of Hope each year, knowing it will bring a smile to someones face. If I achieve that, she added, then Im happy to have done what Ive set out to do. The American Cancer Society is currently seeking Daffodil Days volunteers who are interested in a contributing to a cancerfree future. Individuals will work in event planning, promotions and sales, account development and assist with coordinating daf-

fodil orders now through March 2. Volunteer support for daffodil deliveries is needed the week of March 19. Daffodil Days is the perfect way to fight back against cancer in Vermont. Only through local support can the Society continue its lifesaving work to help those touched by cancer, empower people to fight back against this disease, and save more lives. The American Cancer Society offers free services to cancer patients such as Look Good Feel Better, a program to teach female cancer patients hair and make-up tips to help them cope with the appearance-related side effects of cancer treatment; Road to Recovery, free rides to cancer treatment; and Hope Lodge, a home-away-from-home for those receiving medical care in Burlington. The American Cancer Society invests nearly $1 million in cancer research at Vermont institutions and offers free cancer information all day, every day, through 1-800-227-2345 and cancer.org. To help make a difference in the fight against cancer, volunteer with the Daffodil Days program by contacting Michele Almeida, staff partner with your local American Cancer Society, at 802.872.6344 or Michele.almeida@cancer.org.

PLUGGED IN
By Walter Pacheco, The Orlando Sentinel Verizon Wireless recently announced they are no longer going to charge customers a $2 payment fee after a huge wave of public outrage played on Twitter and a possible FCC investigation. At Verizon, we take great care to listen to our customers. Based on their input, we believe the best path forward is to encourage customers to take advantage of the best and most efcient options, eliminating the need to institute the fee at this time, said Dan Mead, president and chief executive ofcer of Verizon Wireless. A spokesman told the Orlando Sentinel that Verizon Wireless made the decision to cancel the proposed $2 fee in response to customer feedback about the plan, which was designed to improve the efciency of those transactions. The company continues to encourage customers to take advantage of the numerous simple and convenient payment methods it provides, a spokesman said. On Dec. 29, the company announced it was planning to implement a $2 convenience fee on Jan. 15 for customers who make single bill payments online or by telephone. The Federal Communications Commission, which regulates telecommunications in the United States, today stated they were concerned about Verizons actions and are looking into the matter, read a statement issued by the FCC. Verizon Wireless had said the fee would allow them to continue to support these single bill payment options in these channels and is designed to address costs incurred by us for only those customers who choose to make single bill payments in alternate payment channels (online, mobile, telephone), according to a release issued Thursday on the companys website. The wireless giant had said it would waive the fee for customers who pay by electronic check or enroll in Verizons AutoPay service, which automatically deducts your bill from a bank account or credit card. Customers who pay their bills online though a bank, by mail using a check or money order, a rebate card, gift card, or in person at a Verizon Wireless store or kiosk also would not have to pay the fee. Despite the alternatives for avoiding the pesky fee, Verizon Wireless customers were outraged. The announcement was a bitter follow-up to Verizons three 4G LTE network outages suffered in December. Many customers had posted messages Thursday and today on Twitter expressing their annoyance. As a (customer) of 11 yrs, I am disappointed. Who do u think you are, B of A? tweeted @sakeen. Bank of America in October suffered a PR restorm after it proposed $5 monthly surcharges on debit cards. They later dropped that plan. Verizon customer @rshevlin posted: I think Ill take $10 off my next Verizon bill as a charge to them for my marketing advice. Customer @Jtater _ Tott was more blunt: I hate Verizon.

very generation has its hot models and matinee idols. But there is only one Marilyn Monroe. Generation Xers like me can only marvel at how many momentous things (and people) Marilyn Monroe did during her short life. She married Joe Dimaggio, then Arthur Miller. She co-starred in a beloved comedy with Jack Lemmon and in an acclaimed drama with Clark Gable. Plus she had an affair with President Kennedy. If a woman wants to be the 21st Century Marilyn Monroe, she has got a lot of work to do. I guess shed have to wed Derek Jeter, then playwright David Mamet. I suppose shed have to co-star in a hit comedy with Eddie Murphy and then wow the critics with a powerful performance in Robert Redfords final film. Oh, and shed have to hook up with Obama. Clearly there is only one Marilyn Monroe. She is a unique, iconic figure in pop culture history. I was hoping that this movie would introduce me to the real Marilyn Monroe the talented, troubled Norma Jean Mortenson. As a biography, My Week With Marilyn is disappointingly shallow. But its a very enjoyable movie nevertheless. My Week With Marilyn gives us a charming, visually appealing slice of Hollywood life in the 1950s. It was the period when the old-fashioned, theatrical overacting style was slowly being supplanted by the new school of Marlon Brando-style method acting. The all-star cast of British thespians Kenneth Branagh, Julia

My Week With Marilyn HHH1/2

Ormond, Judy Dench clearly had a great time making the movie and that makes it fun to watch. Marilyn chronicles one magical week in the life of a 23-year old Englishman named Colin. First, Colin lands his dream job as an errand boy on a movie set. Next, he has a brief love affair with the leading lady Marilyn Monroe (Michelle Williams). Now Im not saying that Im jealous of this guys job.... No, wait, thats exactly what Im saying. What the movie lacks in drama and character development it makes up for in keen observations about the movie business. Director Simon Curtis shows us how challenging it is to be a smart, beautiful young actress. Marilyn Monroe had to find a delicate balance between using her intelligence to make sure people didnt take advantage of her while also making sure to always act a little ditzy so as not to intimidate men and infuriate jealous women. Curtis also makes a subtle but powerful argument against Hollywood marriages. What a stressed out actress needs more than anything is a calm, stable, supportive husband to come home to every night. However, high maintenance stars always seem to want to marry other high maintenance stars. Hollywood weddings make for good photo ops and tabloid stories, but they dont lead to lifelong happiness and fulfillment. Marilyn Monroe desperately needed a decent man who was always there for her instead of a moody genius like Arthur Miller who was busy with his own career. Happily, though, My Week With Marilyn doesnt dwell on Marilyn Monroes depression. It is a charming, diverting love letter to the 1950s that is entertaining and beautifully shot.

WORK AT HOME AND EARN BIG BUCKS! Earn up to $1,000 a week at your leisure in your own home? The probability of gaining big profits from this and many similar at home jobs is slim.

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 1-800649-2424. 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 1-800-6492424, or consult a health care provider.

Adopting Dogs From Puppy Mills

DEAR PAWS CORNER: My family would like to adopt a shelter dog, and a recent news story about several dogs rescued from horrible conditions in a puppy mill facility really captured our hearts. However, the shelter caring for these dogs is not immediately putting them up for adoption, and it says there will be stricter requirements for those who want to adopt them. Why is this? -- Karl in South Florida DEAR KARL: Many shelter pets come with their own special set of behavioral quirks, often due to the stress and trauma of being abandoned at a shelter. But dogs (and cats and other pets) that suffer especially traumatic situations, such as abuse or starvation or neglect, can have a very difficult time adapting to home life. Because of this, many shelters have developed special policies regarding these rescues. As you found, the puppy-mill dogs were not immediately put up for adoption; theyre being treated and evaluated. Some may never be considered safe to adopt. Once dogs are considered healthy enough to adopt, the shelter is following guidelines to make their transition to a new home as smooth as possible. For instance, it may not allow a puppy-mill rescue to go to a home that has kids under age 10. First-time pet owners will likely be discouraged or outright not allowed to adopt. Adopters may need to attend special classes, and the shelter may ask to make follow-up visits to the dogs new home. Many rescues need a great deal of one-on-one attention, love and patience. If youre an experienced dog owner, meet the guidelines and are willing to take on the challenge of rehabilitating a rescued dog, go for it. But if youre not sure, then consider very carefully whether your family is ready to care for a rescued pet.

NOW HERES A TIP

To make a nice ice pack, enclose several ice cubes in a sealable plastic baggie, then wrap in a bandana. You can tie the ends together to keep the cover from slipping. When you want to refreeze, put the baggie in the freezer, and hang the bandana to dry. It will dry very quickly and can be reused soon. Want to get the most bang for your buck at the takeaway salad bar? Load up on bacon, walnuts, cheese, meats and dried fruits; go light on green beans, cucumbers, hard-boiled eggs, celery, radishes and chickpeas, which are marked up 200 percent to 300 percent. When you clean out your fish tank, recycle the used water by pouring it on your house or garden plants. I dont know what it is in the water, but it makes shrubs and flowers grow like crazy. -Patti in Orlando, Fla. The all-time best remedy for a runny nose or sore throat doesnt cost hardly a thing: Its plain old salt water. Mix a half-teaspoon into a cup of hot water and gargle two to three times a day. If the taste is off-putting, try swishing a bit of mouthwash in your mouth just before you gargle with the salt water. This works really well, and even my doctor thinks its a great idea. -- F.L. in Michigan Use salt to clean out your garbage disposal. Kosher salt has larger grains that work very well. Dump a half-cup in the disposal, run the cold water and hit the switch. The grains scour the inside, leaving a better-smelling drain. Heres a great after-workout drink that I just found out about: chocolate milk. The trainer at my gym prefers it over the fancy and costly post-workout drinks at the gyms smoothie bar. -I.E. in Oregon Send your tips to Now Heres a Tip, c/o King Features Weekly Service, P.O.

Q: I like to dry my clothes outside when I can, but good drying days are tougher to find at this time of year. When I hang the washing in the basement, I notice that my dehumidifier runs more. Now Im wondering which costs me more: Using my electric clothes dryer or running the dehumidifier more. Do you know? A: Using the dehumidifier will probably cost you more. But operation cost is only part of the story. Introducing moisture into the basement, whether by air-drying clothes, storing green firewood, or starting your garden seedlings down there, puts moisture into the part of your home that typically can least tolerate it. You see, because a basement is cool, moisture - in the form of condensation - can form on surfaces. Condensation in a cool basement has a hard time drying out because heat drives evaporation. Moisture can cause wood rot, paint stains, and other issues, like mold, which can create health problems. While air-drying is the most energy-saving approach, you would do well not to do this in the basement. Thanks

for writing in. - Bob for the Home Team Q: Were newlyweds and we need you to settle a bet. My husband says theres no way to keep a basement dry without a dehumidifier. I say that a dehumidifier runs up our electric bill and we should just open the basement windows on sunny days instead. We agreed to ask The Home Team, because this is about energy. The loser will be the designated snow shoveler all winter. Eagerly waiting for your verdict! A: Well, it looks like you two can keep each other company while shoveling, because this is a draw. While there are nondehumidifier fixes, none of them include open windows. You see, when you open basement windows, you can draw in air from outside or from other areas of the house. In warm weather, the incoming air will usually be humid enough to condense on cooler basement surfaces, resulting in a wetter basement. If the open windows bring in colder and drier outdoor air, you run the risk of higher heating bills and frozen pipes. The best approach to eliminating moisture is to prevent it from coming in. If you have a dirt basement floor, the first step is to cover it with heavy plastic or another vapor barrier. Then, with any type of basement floor, be aware that moisture can enter a basement in the air and/or from the ground. To keep out airborne moisture, make the basement as closed to the outside as possible. Seal basement vents and windows and even insulate windows if you dont need the daylight. Make sure that any basement doors to the outside fit well and have weather-tight seals (bulkhead doors are not airtight). And, in the summer, keep the door between the basement and house closed whenever possible. Also, make sure the clothes dryer vents directly to the outdoors, and dont dry clothes or store firewood in the basement. If the moisture in your basement comes from the ground, (and if a dirt-floor vapor barrier doesnt do the trick), you have a bigger job on your hands. Speak to a contractor, who specializes in foundation building/ rebuilding, about addressing the drainage outside of your foundation. Typically, this job entails re-grading the ground

and installing rain gutters and proper foundation drainage. Its an expensive project, but one that will mean a dry basement, a longer-lasting house, and healthier indoor air. - Li Ling for The Home Tea Q: Ive seen TV ads for portable electric space heaters that lower your heating bills because they use an infrared quartz lamp. It sounds too good to be true. Can you tell me the facts? A: Glad to. A portable heater of any kind can conserve energy under certain conditions, but it doesnt necessary lower your energy bills. You see, a portable heater can save central-heating fuel (for your furnace or boiler) when you use the portable heater only in the room you occupy and you keep your central heating system thermostat low so that the rest of the house stays cool. However, the cost of staying warm with a portable electric heater can be as much or more than the savings from keeping the majority of your house cool. This is because electricity is typically more expensive than fossil fuels (gas, oil, propane). Also, keep in mind that heating your entire home does more than keep you comfortable; it helps prevent frozen pipes. How do infrared-quartz lamp heaters compare to other portable electric space heaters? Well, all electric heaters deliver the same amount of heat per dollar spent. What makes infrared-quartz lamp heaters different from some (but not all) heaters is the way they deliver heat. These heaters give off radiant heat. This means that they warm objects rather than air. When youre within range of a radiant heater, you feel warm. Conversely, a convection heater (such as a furnace or boiler system or a non-radiant portable heater) warms the air, which means you dont need to stay near the heater to be warm. If youre finding the need for supplemental heat, your house may have larger efficiency issues. It may be more costeffective to pay to fix the causes of those issues once rather than to pay every winter to overcome the symptom (a cold house). A Home Performance with ENERGY STAR contractor is specially trained and certified to do a home energy audit, find the causes of cold rooms, and make recommendations about improvements that will make the house warmer and will lower your heating costs by up to 30% for years to come. Efficiency Vermont offers rebates of up to $2,500 toward the cost of home improvements that have been completed by one of these contractors. You can learn more about these rebates and find a list of Vermont contractors at www.efficiencyvermont.com.

2011 Year of Weather
From devastating flooding to record breaking snows, 2011 was a year of particularly active and tragic weather across Vermont. At Burlington International Airport as well as Montpelier and at Saint Johnsbury, it was the wettest year on record. Burlington Airport ended with 50.92 of precipitation. Burlington also had its 3rd snowiest winter on record with 128.4. In addition, Burlington experienced 11 out of 12 months of above normal average monthly temperatures with the months of November and December as much as 5 degrees above normal. The greatest snowstorm occurred on March 6-7th when 25.8 fell at Burlington, which was 3rd greatest snowstorm in history. The greatest 24-hour single day rainfall ranged from 3.38 at Burlington associated with Tropical Storm Irene on 28 August 2011. Some locations received up to 11 inches across the central and southern Green Mountains with many locations seeing between 5 and 8 inches. In the spring of 2011, the combination of above normal snow pack and record breaking rainfall caused several historical flooding events across our region. They include the heavy convective rainfall and flooding event on April 26th27th, followed by a record Lake Champlain stage of 103.27 feet on 6 May 2011 breaking the previous record by over a foot. Another heavy convective rainfall episode on May 26th- 27th brought more flooding, followed by the historic and devastating flooding from Tropical Storm Irene on August 28th. The Burlington Office of the National Weather Service has produced the top 5 weather events of 2011. You can find these at: http://www.erh.noaa.gov/btv/events/Top5_2011/
