Barre City and Barre Town have been


selected as a Vermont Promise Community.
The Promise Communities project focuses on
helping our youngest children have the best
possible start in life.
For the past 18 months, a group of people
from Barre including parents, community
members, school staff, and people from child
care, mental health, churches, libraries, nonprofits and the state have worked together to
determine what Barre families want to see in
our community to help our children succeed.
They requested proposals that would address
one or more of the following priorities based
on community feedback: increasing a sense
of safety for children and families in Barre,
increasing access to and affordability of child
care, increasing indoor recreation opportunities for young children, and increasing low
cost or no cost activities for children and
families.
Six proposals were submitted and four are
being considered for funding. The group now
seeks community feedback on these proposals before deciding how to distribute the
$200,000 in federal Early Learning ChallengeRace to the Top funding Barre can receive
through the Promise Community Initiative.
Funds must be spent by December 31, 2017.
The four proposals represent a variety of
programming and infrastructure improvements. Studio Place Arts seeks $10,000 to
provide creative activities for families with

young children in the greater Barre community. The Barre City Recreation Department
seeks $25,000 for new programming and
scholarships. The Aldrich Public Library
requests $150,000 to relocate and renovate
the Katherine Paterson Childrens Room.
Finally, a team of seven non-profits worked
together on a proposal seeking $200,000 for
programming and infrastructure improvements. That proposal includes reduced versions of the requests from the Barre City
Recreation Department and the Aldrich Public
Library. It also includes programming and
resource support for The Family Center of
Washington County, Capstone Community
Action, Good Beginnings of Central Vermont,
The Friends of the Mathewson Playground
Committee, and Prevent Child Abuse
Vermont.
Summaries of all four proposals can be
read at http://www.gmunitedway.org/barrepromise-community-finalists/. Anyone who
lives in Barre City or Barre Town can submit
feedback regarding the proposals at http://
ow.ly/10ms308o2El. The survey is open until
February 7, 2017. Paper copies are available
at both locations of the Aldrich Public Library
and at Capstone Community Action. A final
decision on project funding will be made
February 14, 2017 by the Barre Promise
Community team after taking into account all
community feedback received.

Montpelier City Clerks Office Launches


Montpeliervoterguide.org

Montpelier City Clerk John Odum


announced on Friday that his office is launching an online voter guide in advance of the
March 7 Annual City Meeting. The guide
(which can be found on the Clerks website
and can also be reached directly by the URL
montpeliervoterguide.org) will afford city
residents both a means to review candidates
and ballot articles to be voted on, as well as to
offer commentaries for public review in the
weeks leading up to the Town Meeting Day
Australian ballot election.
Inspired by similar printed voter guides in
other states, the website invites candidates for
city office to submit a picture and a statement
for posting. It also lists the ballot articles as
finalized at the January 26 City Council
meetings and provides a venue for readers
to offer commentaries in either support or
opposition to each proposal (commentaries
will not be accepted relating to the candidates themselves, at least for this year).
City Clerk John Odum, who spent many
years in online media, stresses that this is
not going to be anything resembling a blog

or a free-for-all zone.
Commentaries must be submitted via
email to me directly for posting, and there are
specific restrictions, he said. First, writers
must provide their names and they must be
registered Montpelier voters. In addition,
commentaries cannot be insulting or abusive,
and must advocate pro or con directly with
the ballot question, as opposed to being a
response to someone elses commentary.
There will not be an opportunity for any kind
of back-and-forth, or tit-for-tat debates like
you see in online comment sections.
The Clerks office plans to promote the
service through social media, including Front
Porch Forum. Candidates will be added only
after they have formally qualified for the
ballot, and materials will only be available
if they are submitted by the candidates
themselves. The deadline in Montpelier for
candidates to file petitions with the City
Clerks office is February 5. As this is a
Sunday when offices are closed, candidates
may use the drop box to the left of the rear
door to City Hall.

House Passes First Bill of


Legislative Session

The Vermont House of Representatives today passed the


Fiscal Year 2017 Budget Adjustment Act, the first bill of the
2017-2018 Legislative Session, on a vote of 141-0.
The bill, H.125, strengthens investment in higher education
through increased funding for Northern Vermont University.
This bill is an investment in Vermont families and Vermont
communities said House Speaker Mitzi Johnson. It exemplifies our commitment to creating a stable, healthy economy,
and prioritizes building a strong future for the next generation.
The Budget Adjustment Act built on the Appropriations
Committees years of work to reduce reliance on one-time
funds, achieve better outcomes, and lower overall costs. The
final bill prioritized investment in the Vermont Veterans
Home, the PFOA-Environmental Contingency Fund, the
Department of Children and Families, and the Emergency
Relief Fund.
This budget adjustment was a unanimous effort by the
House to keep important services to Vermonters intact while
adjusting our expenses to meet revenues, which have been
downgraded in this fiscal year. It is a responsible approach to
make needed investments in areas of Vermont that are experiencing additional pressure to address issues like PFOA said
Appropriations Committee Chair, Representative Kitty Toll.
The bill will now move to the Senate for consideration.

Breakfast that the Barre Rotary Club holds each summer on the library lawn. This years donation was

Democrats Sponsor Public Forum on Livable Wage

How many Vermonters actually earn a livable wage, and is that really enough to live
on? How are we training young people to
earn livable wages, and what programs are
available to help? These questions and more
will be the subject of a public forum on
Wednesday, February 1, 2017, at 6:30 p.m. in
the community room at the Downstreet
Housing and Community Development, 22
Keith Ave., Barre. The program is free, open
to all, and sponsored by the Greater Barre
Democrats.
Panelists will include Paul Cillo, Executive
Director of the Public Assets Institute; Mary
Niebling, Director of Community Economic
Development of Capstone Community
Action; and Penny Chamberlain, director of
the Central Vermont Career Center.
The Public Assets Institute recently issued
a report entitled State of Working Vermont
2016, which details the growing Vermont
wage gap, the decrease of the middle class,

and the fact that the essentials are eating up


paychecks.
Sadly, more Vermonters needed food
stamps in 2015 than in 2007, and incomes
have been stagnant during the same period.
The report concludes with concrete recommendations that would help thousands of
Vermonters get their heads above water now
and improve their prospects for the future.
Niebling will discuss Capstones work with
clients, particularly educational efforts in the
areas of financial capability, literacy, and
counseling, as well as the Community Kitchen
Academy. Chamberlain will detail efforts the
Career Center (formerly known as the
Technical Center) is making to help prepare
students for the workforce.
There will be time for discussion and questions from the audience. For more information and directions, contact Marianne Kotch
of the Greater Barre Democrats, at
mkotch731@gmail.com or 476-4185.

Washington County Receives $4,725 in 2 Small and


Inspiring Grants for Local Projects

Two nonprofit organizations in Washington


County received a total of $4,725 in Small
and Inspiring grants from the Vermont
Community Foundation for local projects last
fall. One of a number of competitive grant
rounds at the Community Foundation, the

We are lucky to be living in a place where
neighbors care deeply for one another, said
Jen Peterson, vice president of program and
grants. We are honored to support these
community-building efforts and believe they
are critical to maintaining a healthy and vital
state.
Nonprofits interested in applying for a

Small and Inspiring grant are encouraged to


visit www.vermontcf.org/SmallandInspiring

Directions - PLEASE DO NOT count on GPS to get you here.


Please use these directions, we cannot stress this enough, because some of the mapping
services and GPS devices have the incorrect directions, and will send you the wrong way.
If you need help at all, please call us at 802-778-0205, or text us at 802-279-3992.
Once you are on I-89 (North or South), you will take exit 5 (in Vermont). At the end of the exit
ramp, you will head WEST on VT-64. (This is a right if traveling from the North or a left if coming
from the South). Follow route 64 for 2.9 miles, down into the valley, to the junction of VT-12. At
the bottom, you will bear right and proceed to a yield sign, and turn RIGHT onto VT-12 N. Follow
route 12 North for 1.1 miles, and turn LEFT onto VT-12A toward Roxbury. Follow 12A for 1.3
miles, and turn LEFT onto BULL RUN RD. (Bull Run is your third left, and is on a curve, right
after a large red barn on the left). At about .8 miles, you will go over a small, one-lane bridge,
after which you should bear left at the fork to remain on Bull Run Road. Shortly after that, at .9
miles, you will see a small cape-style house on your right, that is Spruce Cottage, GPS: 882 Bull
Run Road. The very next right is CAMP WIHAKOWI ROAD, where you will find the Main Lodge,
additional cottages, bunkhouses, and our home. The Main Lodge is on the left, where you will find

Vermont Philharmonic Presents


Winter Concerts Feb 11 & 12

The Vermont Philharmonic Orchestra will


perform Music of Joy and Sorrow on
Saturday evening, February 11 at the ElleyLong Music Center at St Michaels College
(7:30 p.m.), and Sunday afternoon, February
12, at the Barre Opera House (2 p.m.), with
maestro Lou Kosma conducting.
The program opens with Danish composer
Carl Nielsens cheerful Little Suite for Strings,
first performed in 1888. The 2016 winner of
the Borowicz Memorial Scholarship, Jonathan
Goff, will perform the jazzy, brilliant piano
solos of Gershwins Rhapsody in Blue
immediately recognizable from the opening
sexy clarinet glissando, one of the memorable
moments in 20th Century classical music.
Rhapsody in Blue bridges joy and sorrow,
working its way from the blues to an exuberant finale. Goff, a senior at Hanover High
School, started playing the piano at age 5. He
is a student of Marilyn Taggart.

The first half of the program closes with


one of the deeply beautiful sorrowful songs
of Henryk Greckis Symphony No. 3, opus
36, composed in 1976. The soprano soloist
will be Mary Bonhag, a central Vermont treasure. Bonhag was a student of Dawn Upshaw,
who made one of the first recordings of the
piece.
The intermission gives the audience a
chance to recover, and then its on to
Tchaikovskys rousing Little Russian
Symphony no. 2. The symphony incorporates several familiar-sounding Ukrainian
folk melodies.
The Vermont Philharmonic is Vermonts
oldest community orchestra. Tickets are
available at the door ($15 / $12 seniors / $5
students). Tickets for the Barre Opera House
performance are also available at 476-8188.
Visit vermontphilharmonic.org for more
information.

Chandler Announces Auditions for


The Next Generation

Chandler announces auditions for the ninth


annual Next Generation performance on
Sunday, April 9. Auditions are open to area
high school age students age thirteen and up
who are seriously studying classical music of
all genres instrumental, ensemble, or
vocal, as soloists or on groups. The concert
will be presented on Friday evening, May 19
at 7:30 p.m. at Chandler Music Hall in
Randolph.
Inspired by the successful 2007 performance at Chandler of National Public Radios
youth showcase, From the Top, presenters at
Chandler created a look-alike program called
The Next Generation. For the past eight seasons, dozens of talented teenagers from the
Champlain Valley, Central Vermont, and the
Upper Valley have made this event an annual
smash hit in Randolph, performing classical
music as pianists, vocalists, instrumental
soloists, and in chamber ensembles.
Students should come prepared to audition
the piece they would perform on May 19. In

the interest of providing a performance opportunity for as many qualified students as possible, works should not exceed five or six
minutes in duration. Instrumentalists and
vocal soloists need to provide their own
accompanist and page turner. The Steinway
concert grand is available, and the auditions
and performance will take place on Chandlers
main stage. A modest production fee will be
charged for those students chosen to perform.
The deadline for audition application is April
1.
Chandler Music Hall is appreciated not
only as a venue for fine performances, but
also as a community arts organization that is
valued for the performance and arts education
opportunities it provides area students. Its
Mini Mud Shows and 4th of July Musicals
have given scores of students an opportunity
to perform. This newer venture celebrates
young students exceptional talent in the area
of classical music and their inspiring dedication to its pursuit and development.

Barnstar! New England All-Star Bluegrass


Ensemble Storms the Barre Opera House, Feb. 4

Barnstar! an ensemble of some of New


Englands finest acoustic musicians, singers
and songrwriters bring their high-energy
show to The Barre Opera House on Saturday,
Feb. 4 at 7:30 p.m.
Barnstar! began as the brainchild of
Zachariah Hickman (bassist for Josh Ritter,
musical director for Ray Lamontagne) for a
local bluegrass supergroup featuring some of
Bostons best musicians and songwriters.
Using the familiar tools of the genreguitar
(Mark Erelli), fiddle (Jake Armerding), mandolin (Taylor Armerding) and banjo (Charlie
Rose)Barnstar! forges its own brand of
song- based bluegrass, gloriously harmonized
and raucously played.
Each of the groups members is a multiinstrumentalist, but with each member limiting himself to his native instrument they can
make a song roar and soar, or whisper and lilt
with equal intensity. Though collectively they
share over 80 years of professional experience, it is exciting to hear a group of seasoned
musicians coming to a new project as equals,
sharing lead vocal duties and switching harmony registers to cover whatever part is
needed.
The band debuted in 2011 with Cmon!, a
mix of distinctive originals and unexpected
covers (Neil Young, Dawes, The Traveling
Wilburys) cut live in the studio. Despite juggling various high-profile sideman gigs
behind other artists, the lads in Barnstar!

managed to cause quite a stir with relatively


few appearances, whether playing above
10,000 feet in the Colorado mountains, dressing up like pirates on a boat cruising around
Boston Harbor, or starting a small skirmish
over the last CD in Shrewsbury, England.
In February 2015, Barnstar! proudly
unleashes its sophomore release Sit Down!
Get Up! Get Out! (Signature Sounds), which
sports a more richly textured sound than its
predecessor.
What continues to define Barnstar!, says
Zachariah Hickman, the bands mustachioed
leader and producer of the groups albums, is
that were not singing songs as an excuse to
play a solo. We like to sink our teeth into
songs that have a narrative or a story to them,
and then make them our own.
The Boston Globe describes Barnstar! as
bluegrass-based, genre-bending music filled
with jawdropping harmonizing, emotive
ensemble playing, and a raucous immediacy.
Raves No Depression, Barnstar! is one of the
most fun bands you will ever see perform.
The raucous energy emanating from the stage
coupled with their talent created a show that
thrilled the sold-out audience on this night.
Tickets are $24. Order online at barreoperahouse.org or call the box office at 802476-8188. The Barre Opera House is handicapped accessible and equipped for the hearing impaired.

Blue Cross and Blue Shield of


Vermont Achieves Best-InNation Member Service for the
Fourth Year in a Row

Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Vermont (BCBSVT)


achieved the highest possible ranking in member satisfaction
and efficiency metrics for the fourth year in a row, retaining
its distinction as the number one Blue Cross Blue Shield
(BCBS) Plan in America in overall service to its members.
The focus of our company is on creating positive member
experiences, and our entire organization stands by that commitment, shares Don George, BCBSVT President & CEO.
We are very pleased to have received the distinction as the
top performing Blue Plan four years running, and we continue
to look for ways to improve the service we provide to
Vermonters.
George explains that Blue Cross and Blue Shield of
Vermonts number-one ranking is based on the national Blue
Cross and Blue Shield systems Member Touchpoint
Measures (MTM). Blue Cross and Blue Shield organizations
use the MTM system to track the service they provide to their
members and assure industry-leading service levels. Although
Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Vermont is an independent,
nonprofit Vermont company, its affiliation with the national
BCBS system assures members seamless coverage across the
country and the world.
The MTM program tracks four primary levels of member
service: enrollment, claims processing, inquiries timeliness
and accuracy as well as first-call resolution of member inquiries. In 2016, BCBSVT achieved 100 percent of the available
points in each category, the highest ranking of any Blue Plan
nationally.

Barre Granite Association Appoints


New Executive Director

Your Game Day Party Headquarters

322 No. Main St., Barre

The Barre Granite Association announced last week that


Douglas Grahn has been appointed to manage its strategic
marketing initiatives. This includes increasing awareness
nationally of the products and services of its members, and
assisting in the promotion of the Vermont Granite Museum.
Grahn brings a wealth of marketing experience to the BGA,
having spent many years as the National Marketing Director
at Smith, Bell & Thompson, Inc. in Burlington; and additionally following corporate mergers, the Hilb Rogal & Hobbs
and Willis of North America operations in Hartford and
Shelton, CT, Syracuse, NY and Denver, CO. For the past six
years, Grahn worked closely with a wide array of for-profit
and nonprofit clients, as owner of Radial Marketing, LLC, a
locally-based marketing consulting firm.
BGA Board President Mark Gherardi said, The BGA
Board has been searching for a dynamic leader with extensive
marketing background for some time now and I am happy to
report that Doug fits these requirements in every way. Our
Board feels that given his extensive marketing background
and local roots, Doug is a perfect fit for our associations
management position.
Grahn will be focusing all of his efforts going forward on
the association.
While Ill miss working with my long-term clients, I could
not pass up this opportunity to help generate exposure and
new business opportunities for this world class industry that
has been so vital to Vermont since the 1800s. Im excited and
ready to hit the ground running, Grahn said.
To best serve the needs of the association and granite
museum, Dougs office and the BGA headquarters will be
moving soon to new office space at the Vermont Granite
Museum in Barre.

Must-Haves For Any Super Bowl Party

Baked Jerk
Chicken Wings

he Super Bowl, the annual


championship game of the
National Football League, has
become a global event.

Fans and non-fans alike typically spend at least some time watching the big game, and many people do so at parties geared around the
game itself. A good Super Bowl party can make the game that much
more enjoyable, and the following are some must-have items no
Super Bowl party host should forget.
* Snacks: Snacks play an integral role on Super Bowl Sunday. Unlike
other popular gatherings, Super Bowl parties do not typically feature
a sit-down meal as part of the festivities. Though its customary for
hosts to make one large dish or order pizzas for guests, its still necessary to stock up on snacks to keep guests from getting hungry as the
party progresses. The game itself often lasts three hours or more, and
many guests will begin to arrive an hour before kickoff, if not earlier.
So be sure to have snacks like potato chips and pretzels as well as
some healthier fare, like vegetable trays, on hand for guests.
* Dips: Of course, snacks always taste better when guests have something to dip them into. When choosing dips for the party, encourage
guests with culinary skills to make their own homemade dips and
bring them to the party, and make some of your own as well. Hosts
hesitant to try their hands at making dips can always buy some from
the store, just be sure to choose popular dips like onion- or cheeseflavored dips and even some salsa.
* Nachos: Certain foods have become synonymous with Super Bowl
parties, and nachos certainly fall into that category. If hosts and guests
all eat meat, cook up some homemade nachos with tortilla chips,

Serves 4 as an appetizer

18 whole chicken wings, or 12


drumsticks
1 1/2 cups jerk marinade
1 1/2 cups tamarind-apricot sauce
1/4 cup soy sauce

ground beef (or even ground chicken), green


peppers, red peppers, jalapeno peppers, shredded cheese, and salsa, be it homemade or storebought. Exclude beef or chicken when hosting
guests who abstain from eating meat or poultry. Nachos can be made in a snap, so hosts
might want to wait until just before the game
starts to whip up some homemade nachos.
* Beverages: Beverages are another important
must-have when hosting a Super Bowl party.
According to Nielsen estimates from 2011,
Americans consumed roughly 50 million cases
of beer in the two weeks leading up to the
Super Bowl (the NFL conference championship games, which determine who will play in
the Super Bowl, occur two weeks prior to the
big game), a significant portion of which is

Avoid Being Intercepted by a


Scammer this Super Bowl Season

The teams competing in this years Super


Bowl have been chosen The New England
Patriots vs. The Atlanta Falcons. With all the
hype surrounding the game day on Sunday,
February 5, scammers will be eager to take
advantage of the fans.
Year after year, the Super Bowl has always
been an event where scams are recurrent,
said Paula Fleming, Chief Marketing & Sales
Officer for the local BBB. With so many
fans looking to support their team, its the
perfect moneymaking opportunity for scammers.
Better Business Bureau Serving Eastern
MA, ME, RI, & VT (BBB) warns those participating in the celebration of Super Bowl
17 to play defensively when purchasing tickets, hotel rooms, and NFL merchandise.
At this point in the game, coming across
tickets to the Super Bowl may require going
through sellers and brokers and consumers
need to be cautious when doing so. If you
need to go through a seller or a broker to buy
your tickets to the Super Bowl, make sure to
look them up on bbb.org to see what other
customers have experienced. It is also a good
idea to check if they are a member of the
National Association of Ticket Brokers
(NATB). NATB members offer a 200% guar-

consumed on Super Bowl Sunday. So hosts


should anticipate guests wanting to enjoy a
beer or two during their Super Bowl parties.
But beer isnt the only beverage hosts must
stock up on. Have plenty of water on hand, as
well as some beverages like iced tea and soda
for kids and adults guests who do not drink
alcohol. Hosts also should monitor guests
alcohol consumption to ensure no guests overdo it.
* Chicken wings: Like nachos, chicken wings
have become synonymous with the Super
Bowl. Hosts who want to try their hands at
homemade wings can consider the following
recipe for Baked Jerk Chicken Wings from
Helen Willinskys Jerk From Jamaica (Ten
Speed Press).

In a baking dish, combine the


chicken and 1 cup of the marinade.
Cover and refrigerate for at least
11/2 hours or up to 4 hours, turning
occasionally. The longer the chicken
marinates, the hotter it becomes.
Remove the chicken from the marinade and discard the marinade.
Preheat the oven to 350 F. Place
the chicken in a greased baking
dish. Bake for 40 to 45 minutes,
basting twice with the reserved 1/2
cup of marinade. When done, the
juices will run clear when the chicken is pierced with a knife.
Prepare a dipping sauce by combining the tamarind-apricot sauce
with the soy sauce. Serve the chicken hot or at room temperature, with
the dipping sauce.

antee on tickets that dont arrive in time for a


game, concert or show.
Other tips to keep in mind when shopping for tickets are:
Know the difference between a ticket broker (a legitimate and accredited reseller) and
a ticket scalper (an unregulated and unlicensed ticket seller).
Look for secure websites when buying
tickets. Look for a website with the padlock
on the page and https at the start of the
pages web address.
Ask the seller where he or she is located.
Also, ask how he or she can be contacted after
the sale. If the seller is elusive, dont pursue
the offer.
Ask for a picture of the tickets so you can
confirm the tickets match the venue. Check
out the seats ahead of time to avoid obstructed
view seats or seats that do not exist.
Always use a credit card so you have some
recourse if the tickets are not as promised.
Never wire money or pay with a cashiers
check. Youll have no way of getting your
tickets or money back.
If you believe you have purchased a counterfeit ticket, immediately report it to the
NATB at 630-510-4594 and file a complaint
with your local BBB at bbb.org.

Bill Haines

William Hatch Haines, age 77, died


Thursday, January 12, 2017 at home
with his loving wife by his side. He
had suffered with Idiopathic Pulmonary
Fibrosis for the past several years, but
managed to lead a full life at their longtime home, outside Worcester village,
pursuing his many intellectual, civil
and homemaking interests.
He was born May 3rd, 1939 in
Evanston, IL to William Sackett Haines and Patricia
Hatch Haines. He and his sister, Sally Haines Welty,
grew up in Winnetka attending the local schools and
graduated from New Trier High School. He earned a
BA from Hamilton College in Clinton New York in
psychology and a Masters from Columbia University in
education. After Hamilton, Bill worked in insurance in
San Francisco, London, UK, and Paris, France before
deciding on a career in education. After graduating
from Columbia, Alan Weiss and skiing lured him to
Montpelier High School in the fall of 1967.
Bill met and married Leslie (ne. Bucklin) while both
taught in Montpelier. They married in 1972 and built a
house and moved to Worcester in 1973 where they
raised two children, Liza and Cory, gardened, made
maple sugar with Rome Aja, and enjoyed cutting wood.
In his last years he enjoyed his eight grandchildren,
traveling with Leslie, the dog Pickles, baking almond
biscotti, reading, discussing politics and education, and
canoeing with friends.
Bill entered teaching with colleagues Charlie Phillips,
Ed Pelkey, Ed Skea, Rome Aja, Francis Brooks, Marilyn
Fenno, Carolyn Silsby, Linda Baker, Steve Pinard, Joe
Smolen, John Sanfacon, Shirley Turner, Put and Sue
Clayton, Pat Canavan, Linda MacDonald, John Naess,
John Bate, and some who have passed: Alan Blakeman,
Edna Cassort, Joe Miana, and Harlan Farnsworth among
others. During those first years Bill was the true activist.
He organized student involvement in the community,
state and nation with a handbook on student rights, a

Card Of Thanks

hank you to everyone for the love and support shown us


during the loss of our loved one, Royal (Skip) Brown.
Thank you for the many cards, phone calls, food & flowers,
and for the donations in Skips memory to the Stockbridge Fire
Department.
A special thank you to all the wonderful nurses, Dr. John Jayne,
& all the other doctors on the cardiac team & to everyone
on the Palliative Care Team for there care at the DartmouthHitchcock Medical Center.
Thank you to the Day Funeral Home,
to the Rev. Tom Harty, and to Susan
Bushnell.
Our loved one will be missed forever
but we know he will live in the hearts
of those who shared their grief with us
during this difficult time.
Warm Regards,
Barbara Brown & Family
LeeAnn Brown & Maryssa

card catalogue of community resources, debate club,


environmental initiatives, camping and canoeing activities, etc., etc. Bill was throughout his teaching career at
MHS a source of ideas for educational and social
improvement. Bill received many awards for his initiatives and leadership in education and community service. His leadership was grounded in his deep concern
for his country, state, community, and most of all, his
students. In the village of Worcester, Bill served on the
select board for twelve years, was a town moderator,
served on the school board, and developed strong community relationships.
Bill was a tireless paddler. He crossed Hoare Lake on
the Hanbury River in the Canadian Arctic in a hard head
wind, waded loaded canoes through the rock gardens of
the Goddamn and Hayes Rivers in freezing waters, and
ran the big rapids of the DuMoine River in Northern
Quebec four times. He loved all the paraphernalia of
canoe tripping, made much of his own equipment,
smoked and coated with ashes and honey sides of
bacon, and kept extensive journals and reflections of all
the great trips. His companions, Charlie, Will, Ed
Cowan, and John appreciated his rock solid courage,
audacity, and common sense.
His dear mother, Patricia, died at the advanced age of
one hundred and one years and his father, many years
before at the age of seventy-six years. He leaves his loving wife, two children, a son-inlaw, many grandchildren, and his beloved sister Sally.
There will be a celebration of Bills wonderful life on
June 17th at noon at Bill and Leslies home, 339 Elmore
Road, Worcester, VT. A private burial in Charlotte will
take place in the spring.
Leslie wishes to thank many friends and relatives for
their support and kindnesses during this challenging
time. She especially wishes to express her appreciation
to Peter Dale, Bills primary-care physician, and many
other dedicated caregivers.
Those wishing to materially recognize Bills life of
service may, in lieu of flowers, donate to Montpelier
High School Canoe Program, attn. Brian Gallagher, 5
High School Drive, Montpelier, VT 05602, or Friends
of the Winooski River, P. O. Box 777, Monpelier, VT

Guest Opinion

Secretary of State Jim Condoss Statement on


Voter Fraud Claims by President Trump

Secretary of State Jim Condos issues the following statement in response to continued assertions by President Trump
that 35 million people voted illegally in the November elections:
As the chief state election official for the State of Vermont,
I am fiercely proud of the work that Vermonts Town Clerks
and local elections officials do to ensure the integrity of our
elections.
Voting is a Constitutional right at the very core of our
democracy.
Vermonters should know that their votes count and
Vermonts elections are fair and accurate!
Voters have every right to expect accountability in their
elections process, but unsubstantiated voter fraud claims
undermine our democracy and disparage the hundreds of
thousands of hard-working election officials across our great
nation.
It is disappointing that the President of the United States

would cast doubt through unproven falsehoods. It is hard to


believe the President does not have the information in his
hands to make an informed judgment about the non-existence
of voter fraud by the millions.
My larger concern is that these baseless statements are
intended to set the stage for attempts from Washington DC to
roll back voting rights by imposing unnecessary restrictions
on that Constitutional right. Such attempts by states are being
overturned by court after court as discriminatory and based in
partisan politics.
Those of us who administer elections for a living are well
aware that study after study has shown that widespread voter
fraud is a myth.
True voter fraud is denying an otherwise eligible American
from their constitutional right to participate in their democracy.
Any investigation initiated must be conducted in an open,
fair and nonpartisan way.

Eight Vermont Businesses Win Prestigious


Good Food Awards in San Francisco

On Friday, January 20, eight Vermont businesses were presented with a Good Food Award at the gala Awards Ceremony,
which took place at the historic Herbst Theater in San
Francisco, California. Chosen from 2,059 entrants and 291
finalists, the Good Food Awards describes the 193 award
recipients as rising to the top in a blind tasting and rigorous
vetting to confirm they met specific standards around environmentally sound agricultural practices, good animal husbandry, sourcing transparency and responsible relationships
throughout the supply chain.
We are extremely proud to once again be recognized as a
national leader in tasty, authentic, and responsibly produced
food, says Anson Tebbetts, Secretary of the Vermont Agency
of Agriculture, Food, and Markets. Vermont will continue to
grow our food system to support our thriving local economy,
and produce the most delicious and innovative products
across the country.
Below are the eight Vermont awardees honored for their
exceptional products and contribution to a local, sustainable
economy:
Big Picture Farm, Farmstead Chocolate Covered Caramels
Fat Toad Farm, Vanilla Bean Goats Milk Caramel Sauce
Grafton Village Cheese, Bear Hill Cheese, a 100% sheeps

Allison Hooper of Vermont Creamery, who spoke for the
Good Food Awards cheese winners said, Its a tremendous
honor to be a Good Food Award recipient. For Bonne Bouche
to earn this accolade twice in two years, is a true testament to
our teams commitment to transparency and innovation.
Vermont Creamery introduced Bonne Bouche in 2001 and
quickly won the hearts and palates of cheese lovers and
brought home a bronze medal at the 28th annual World
Cheese Awards.
On Saturday, January 21, 13 Vermont crafters and one
Vermont retailer attended the Good Food Mercantile, an untrade show hosted to connect Good Food winners, finalists,
and members. Six of the 13 Vermont businesses received
funding to support their attendance in part from the Trade
Show Grant Program administered by the Vermont Agency of
Agriculture.
The seventh Good Food Awards recognized businesses in
14 categories: beer, cider, charcuterie, cheese, chocolate, coffee, confections, honey, pantry, pickles, preserves, spirits, oil,
and preserved fish. Vermont businesses were represented in
four of the 14 categories; cheese, confections, preserves, and
spirits; and had 16 finalists of which the eight winner were
chosen. Each winner will be identified with the Good Food
Award Seal which guarantees a high quality, delicious product
committed to environmentally sound business practices and
social good within their community.

Editor,
Does President Trump trust Communist Russia, but distrust
our intelligence agencies? Will Trump stand up to Russia, an
adversary of the US, a country that wants to spread its
Communist totalitarianism to Europe, the Middle East and
North America?
Trump might be hesitant to admit Russia hacked into
Clintons campaign because he does not want the public to
think he won a tainted election. He won the election because
of the ineptitude of Clintons campaign staff, Clintons private
email server, and the desire for change by a large segment of
the electorate in key states unhappy with Obamas policies.
Trump should wholeheartedly support the Congressional
investigations into the possible hacking by the Russians.
Trump wants to have good relations with Russia so we can
work together to jointly solve some of the worlds problems,
which might be a positive move by the President, and it could
make both countries more secure. However, we cannot completely trust Putin and Russia, and we always have to be wary
of their motives and be ready to respond to their threatening
and hostile actions.
Hopefully, Russia does not have compromising personal
and financial information on Trump which could be used
against us.
We must support President Trump, because his success is
our success.

Flyer from Vermont Right to Life


Committee

Editor,
I was extremely disappointed and angered by finding the
flyer from the self-described Vermont Right to Life Committee
in last weeks paper. Below is the text of an email that I sent
the committee:
I was so horrified by your flyer with its inflammatory
attacks on both reproductive rights and Vermont Act 39 that I
made a first-time (but not the last) donation to Planned
Parenthood. As a person who is extremely concerned about
food insecurity in our state, I cant help but point out that the
money spent on this propaganda, if donated to the Vermont
Food Bank, would have provided a significant number of
meals to the 25% of Vermonters the majority of whom are
children and seniors who often go to bed hungry.
Shame on you.
And shame on The World for accepting such material. I will
be thinking twice, in the future, about patronizing or supporting any of your advertisers.

Western Europe would remain Christian for another 1300 years.
The second most important year in
European history was 1985. By signing the Schengen Agreement, a group
of myopic, greedy globalists undid the
work of Charles Martel. The borders
of Western Europe came down.
The Jihadi Next Door explores the new world that intolerant Islamists and idiot internationalists unleashed upon us. The
documentary introduces us to some British men who are far
from English, living in a new Europe that feels far from Christendom.
The most memorable Jihadi is Abu Rumaysah, a Hindu-born
convert who moved to The Islamic State soon after the documentary was shot. He calmly explains what life will be like in
Europe after Sharia Law is enacted. Abu speaks fondly of a
happy future where adulterers are stoned to death in public and
gay men are thrown off the roof.
His words are ghastly but unsurprising. The way he speaks
them is the really interesting part. Abu Rumaysah is a normal-

The most important year in European history was 732.


A century before, Mohammed had
founded Islam. In just a couple of generations, the conquering armies of Islam had profoundly changed the map of the
world. Mohammeds successors controlled an unbroken empire stretching from Northern India to Morocco.
In 711, North African Moors led by General Abd al-Rahman attacked Spain. They subjugated the Christian Visigoth
barbarians with ease. Inevitably, the Muslim army crossed the
Pyrenees and attacked an even more backward barbarian tribe
called the Franks.
The Battle of Tours (732) was the greatest upset in Medieval history. The question wasnt whether the undefeated Abd
al-Rahman would triumph, but how badly the Christians would
be slaughtered.

Reisss Pieces
A
By Judy Reiss

fter I spoke to Gary Hass, who


co-owns The WORLD, we discussed what I would like to do
with Reisss pieces. And I told him that
I was pretty sure I had fans out there
and that they would probably miss it.
(I sure hope that is true!) And after all
our years of wonderful friendship, he agreed. In fact, he didnt
even know that it was an issue! So, he decided that I should
write only once a month and it should be the rst of every
month. And I agreed. But you want to hear something funny?
The very day I spoke with Gary, I got a phone call from an
avid fan who said he had been reading Reisss Pieces since
the very beginning and to tell you the truth he made me feel so
good after the difcult discussion with the editor. So, here is
the column that Gary requested. Im not sure and told him that
but he insisted. So, here goes!
First I should tell you that Malcolm has been taking care
of me since November and part time the year before. Now,
for any normal man, his 78 years would be a time to relax
and gather himself together as his demanding wife called him,
constantly. And I actually thought that when the ski season
started I would make sure that he skied as much as he wanted
to. Keep in mind Malc has been a fanatic skier since I met
him. Although we were married on the 27th of November, it
snowed like crazy. I guess it was a good thing because Sugarbush was open and we had planned to ski as a honeymoon.
I believe this is true, we took one run and he tried to talk me
down and not be such a baby! And then the hand of God intervened and I had to go back to work at my Day Care because
the person I had asked to take my place got sick. So, for the
next 6 days, Malc skied all day and I worked and I believe that
was the handwriting on the wall! We did meet for dinner every
day, but it just wasnt the honeymoon I had anticipated.
Well, we are now a lot older than we were 51 years ago. I
am unable to work any more and Malcolm still skied every
single day, rain or shine! And you would think that at 78 almost 79 he would slow down. But oh no. And here is what
Gary wanted me to share with you, he and his two buddies,
Terry Brennan and Clint Charon not only ski, they ski really,
really well. Have any of them slowed down? Absolutely not.
And do they ever stop? Not to my knowledge except on very

cold days I do know they stop at Allens Lodge and grab a cup
of hot chocolate.
My other favorite story about Malc was when Stein Eriksen
was the very famous ski school director at Sugarbush. And
most of the ski instructors were also Norwegians. And what
Stein did was during lunch and when he wasnt teaching, he
would ask someone to ski with him and believe me it was
a very big deal, especially for his country people who also
worked for him. However, he almost always asked Malcolm
to ski with him, which didnt go over too well with his boys
and girls. But I took care of his little daughter and so I knew
him quite well and one day I asked him why he always picked
Malcolm to ski with and he said, Because I can always have
fun skiing with him and he is the best skier here at Sugarbush. I did keep that quiet until Stein left and went out west!
Why? Because a happy Norwegian is fun but one or several
together is another matter all together.
If you go to Sugarbush and see three old man whipping
down the hardest of trails and you arent sure it is them just
note they arent dressed in new and colorful ski clothes, nope
they all are wearing what was popular back in the 70s or 80s.
But that isnt the real way to tell. I cant speak about the other
two but if you look at Malcolms feet in old ski boots you will
notice he is wearing the best skis. And those skis are waxed,
sharpened and cleaned so that they look brand new! And if
you want free advice on skis you either are using or want to
buy or rent. He will be happy to advise you.
I am sure that some of you who know Malcolm are wondering if I let him read this before I sent it to Gary, and the answer
is NO. And the reason is he is not a guy who goes around and
tells anyone what a good skier he is. In fact, I know that he is
not a reader of mine that makes sure he reads every column.
And because of this I am hoping that people will not let him
know that they read it and that they didnt know how amazingly good he really is! And I am hoping that he wont believe
them anyway! But take my word for it. He is not only really
good he enjoys every single day he skis and not only that, he
loves Sugarbush ski area more than any other area in the country. But just to keep all things equal, dont ask me!

every snowake from the rear window and trunk, and then
made her way around the rest of the car, brushing every bit of
snow from each area, as she went.
Eventually the lady found herself back where she had
started brushing, at the drivers side front door. I couldnt help
but notice that she stopped and stared at that door for just a
moment. I began to smile a bit, as I realized what she was
realizing just then, that the door was covered again with all
that uffy white stuff she had so carefully removed moments
earlier. To my slightly endish enjoyment, the poor lady began
a second trip around the car, carefully removing ALL of the
snow, once again. I know that I just should have gotten out
and brushed the car for her, but from what I saw, I dont think
my cleaning job would have satised her at all. Truthfully, as
she made her way around the car that second time, I sort of
watched that drivers door, wondering how much new snow
would be on it by the time she had made one more orbit of the
vehicle. Am I a terrible person?
Eventually, once again, the lady found herself back where
she started brushing, at that drivers side front door. To my
utter delight, and I know how bad that sounds, she stopped
again and stared, momentarily, at the newly snow-covered
glass and door. Please venture a guess at what she did then.
If you guessed that she began brushing the car off, heading
around it for the third time, you would be right. If you also
guessed that I had to cover my mouth to prevent an outburst of
laughter that the lady probably would have heard, you would
be right a second time. Really, am I a terrible person? I think
I must be, but it was like watching someone try to towel-dry
their car in a down pour. It just couldnt work, and I still want
to chuckle every time I think about it.
This third time, the lady did do a less than perfect job of
brushing off the snow, and then got into her car and drove
away. If she had not, and had started around the car for lap
number four, I would have gotten out and helped her. Really,
I would have. WellI THINK I would have. Am I a terrible
person?

Am I a Terrible Person?

By G. E. Shuman
everal weeks ago, my wife and I
were on one of our weekly, necessary, grocery shopping trips. We try
to shop weekly, as neither of us enjoys doing it more frequently than that, and they
are necessary trips, because we like to eat, and our food comes
from stores. In any case, and I dont remember the details, it
must have been Lornas turn to go in and buy something from
whatever store we were parked in front of, as I found myself
sitting alone in the car, in the parking lot, for a while.
I do remember that it was snowing, and snowing quite hard.
The snow was that kind of sticky stuff that seems to gather
with its friends somewhere up in the sky, and oat straight
down, as huge mega-akes, splattering on the ground and everything else as if it needed to cover the earth as quickly as
possible. My windshield got covered up almost completely,
between intermittent swipes of the windshield wipers. Thats
how fast and furiously it was falling. (That last sentence is an
example of alliteration, in case you missed your writing lesson
this week.)
As I sat there watching the snow fall, something that seemed
funny, but, somehow, a bit sad happened in front of my car. I
did feel somewhat guilty that I did nothing to prevent it from
happening, but I also didnt want to embarrass the person that
I saw, and, besides that, almost couldnt believe what I was
seeing. The more I watched, the more I smiled. (My watching
and smiling is the reason for the title, above.)
You see, an older lady, (yes, there are people older than me,
contrary to what my seventh-grade students seem to think)
came out of one of the stores and approached her car, which
happened to be parked almost in front of mine. She opened the
door to the back seat and took out a snow brush. This seemed
like a perfectly normal thing to do, considering the circumstances. Next, she proceeded to, very meticulously, brush off
the drivers window and door of the car. After this she moved
down the side of the car, cleaning off the other window and
door, as well. Following this she moved to the back, removing

PoemTown Randolph 2017

PoemTown Randolph organizers are excited to announce


the fourth annual celebration of poetry in Randolph throughout April, National Poetry month, and are seeking submissions from Vermont poets as the centerpiece of the monthlong event.
PoemTown Randolph 2017 presents a public opportunity
for Vermont poets to share their work. Throughout the month
of April, posters of 100 selected poems will be displayed in
the main windows and doors of businesses, churches, and
organizations in the Randolph area. Past PoemTown displays
and events have received strong support from local businesses
and organizations, and similar enthusiasm is anticipated for
the 2017 celebration.
Organizers are currently soliciting poetry submissions from
poets of all ages residing anywhere in Vermont. No more than
three poems, each of 24 lines or less, typed or handwritten,
should be submitted by mail no later than February 10 to Janet
Watton, 1387 Davis Road, Randolph Center, 05061, or hand
delivered to a special PoemTown mail box on the porch of
Marjorie Ryerson at 36 Randolph Avenue in Randolph. For
purposes of blind judging, the poets name, city/town of residence, email address, and phone number must be entered on
the reverse side of the submitted poem page.
Poets are asked to not resubmit work that has been displayed in previous Poetry Alive!, PoemCity displays in
Montpelier, or PoemTown Randolph, or that has previously
appeared in print.
By sending work to PoemTown 2017, poets agree that
PoemTown may use any poem in display, in promotional
materials, and associated online, print, and other media.
PoemTown organizers are planning special poetry events
and poetry readings throughout April in several venues in
town, culminating in a celebration at Chandler Music Hall.
Further details will be announced later.
Questions or expressions of interest in planning PoemTown
events can be addressed to Janet Watton via email at musbird@gmail.com or by phone at 802-728-9402.
PoemTown Randolph is supported in part by a grant from
the Vermont Humanities Council.

Kipp-Lacey Engagement

Peter and Debra Kipp of Woodbury, Vermont announce the


engagement of their daughter, Allison, to Tobias Lacey, son of
Jann Lacey of Walden, Vermont. The bride-to-be works at
Mercy Hospital in Portland, Maine and her fiance works for
Smiling Hill Farm in Westbrook, Maine. The couple live in
Saco, Maine. A September wedding is planned.
ARIES (March 21 to
April 19) Lots of mixed
signals can create an
unreliable situation in
which to make decisions.
Best advice: Hold off on
making any commitments until youre sure you know
whats going on.
TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) An apparently friendly
offer comes with some strings attached. Be careful not to
get tied into something you dont really want. Thoroughly
examine all your options before making a choice.
GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) If youre not careful, distractions can interrupt your best efforts. Continue to focus
on what you need to do. Youll soon have lots of time to
enjoy the rewards of your dedication.
CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Knowledge replaces suspicion as you begin to learn more about that act of
betrayal. On a lighter note, someone close to you might
be planning a pleasant surprise.
LEO (July 23 to August 22) Control your sometimesoveractive jealousy gene before you find yourself saying
or doing something that you could later regret. Best
advice: Stop obsessing and move on.

Save Money and Eat Well; Earned Income Tax Credit and
3SquaresVT Lift Vermonters Out of Poverty

This year, the Earned Income Tax Credit


(EITC) can help working families in
Vermont make ends meet with a credit up to
$6,269. In addition, any family with dependent children who receives the Vermont
EITC is automatically income eligible for
food benefits through 3SquaresVT meaning their income
and resources dont count. Last Thursday was EITC Awareness
Day, a time to spread the word to the estimated one in five
Vermonters who miss out on thousands of dollars in savings
and added benefits because they are unaware of EITC or its
link to 3SquaresVT.
Many Vermonters will receive the EITC this year but they
may not know it, and they may not know how the EITC can
connect them to other programs that can help them save
money, says Anore Horton, Child Nutrition Initiatives
Director at Hunger Free Vermont. Receiving EITC makes it
possible for many families to access 3SquaresVT who
wouldnt have otherwise been eligible. This helps families
save money and put more healthy food on the table.
The average monthly 3SquaresVT benefit is over $300 for
a working family with children. Additionally, children who
receive a 3SquaresVT benefit amount also qualify for free
school meals, which allows families more flexibility in their
food budgets and helps strengthen school meal programs.

Vermonters making under $53,505 should


see if they qualify.
EITC is designed to encourage and
reward work while reducing poverty, providing financial security for working
families while also providing economic
stimulus for the state. In 2016, 43,000 Vermonters received
EITC bringing over $85 million federal dollars into the state
at an average credit of $1,957 per household. Nationally,
EITC and 3SquaresVT lift millions of people out of poverty.
Research indicates that children in EITC and 3SquaresVT
households have better health and education outcomes as
well.
Call the IRS to see if you qualify for the EITC, even if you
dont usually file taxes, Horton emphasizes, And apply for
3SquaresVT! If you receive the EITC, you have also earned
the additional benefits that come along with it!
To find out if you qualify for the EITC, call the IRS at
1-800-829-1040 or visit the online tool EITC Assistant. For
help preparing your taxes for free, dial 2-1-1 to make an
appointment in your community with a certified volunteer.
For information about 3SquaresVT and school meals and to
find out how much you could get, visit vermontfoodhelp.com

The course covers how to set clear guidelines with both
positive and negative consequences; how to control and
express anger constructively; understanding the teenage
brain; promoting family bonds; and preparing kids with
refusal skills for that time down the road when trouble may
tempt them. It is important to reach kids early. Guiding Good
Choices has an excellent track record for preventing youth
alcohol and drug use and abuse.
Says a local parent who has taken Guiding Good Choices,
If you have kids, you owe it to yourself and your family to
take this course.
Many parents feel they dont have much influence over

wonderful and exciting before
your more reserved nature
resurfaces. A message brings
news of imminent change.
LIBRA (September 23 to October 22) Cheer up. Things
begin to improve significantly by mid-February. However,
you might still need help to get through the rest of this
sometimes-difficult period.
SCORPIO (October 23 to November 21) Something you
learned last week takes on new meaning as you begin to
relate it to another situation in your life. Its best to keep this
matter to yourself for now.

energy level is climbing, and so is your self-confidence.

their childs behavior, but research shows


just the opposite. Parents are the number
one influence on their childs use of substances. In the mid 1990s, Dr. David
Hawkins and Dr. Richard Catalano of the
University of Washington looked at 19 risk factors that affect
children in their teenage years. They discovered that parents
and other adult caregivers can play a major role in keeping
kids on track.
Come learn the skills to keep your child safe and yourself
sane! The next Guiding Good Choices workshop for parents
and caregivers of kids ages 10-14 begins Wednesday, March
15 from 6-8 p.m. at Waitsfield Elementary School and is
sponsored by Central Vermont New Directions Coalition,
Vermont Department of Health Regional Prevention
Partnerships grant, and Washington West Supervisory Union.
The course is free and childcare is provided. Space is limited
and pre-registration is required. Contact Ann Gilbert, CVNDC
to register, at 802-223-4949 or email info@cvndc.org

tackle an exciting challenge on the way.


CAPRICORN (December 22 to January 19) A family issue
might interrupt a career-linked project. Try to give the matter
the attention it needs, but be careful not to jeopardize your
workplace situation.
AQUARIUS (January 20 to February 18) Some self-doubt
shows up this week, causing you to question your ability to
handle a new challenge. But you know you can do it, and
this is your chance to prove it.
PISCES (February 19 to March 20) A personal matter
requires you to be as clear and forthcoming as possible in
order to avoid misunderstandings. A career move is eased
with the emergence of new facts.
BORN THIS WEEK: You have a way of reaching people that
makes them feel good about themselves. You would be an
excellent motivational speaker.

Cherry Orangeade Pound Cake

If you nd that you are short the half cup cherry juice
from jar of maraschino cherries, simply add more
orange juice concentrate to make up the difference in
this classic cake. My father, the second Yankee Chef,
still adhered to the old adage when making pound cake,
1 pound our, 1 pound sugar, 1 pound butter and a
dozen eggs. I remember it coming out truly delicious,
but all I could eat was just 1 slice. Try this recipe
instead. Although I couldnt cut out much in the way of
sugar in order for the classic, rm texture to stay true
to form, this recipe is still a great addition to any cake
card you have on le.
Nonstick cooking spray
1 1/2 sticks (3/4 cup) butter or margarine,
softened
2 cups sugar
5 eggs
3 cups our
1/2 cup frozen orange juice concentrate,
thawed
1/2 cup cherry juice
1 (10-ounce)jar maraschino cherries, stemmed
Glaze:
3/4 cup powdered sugar
3 tablespoons frozen orange juice concentrate,
thawed
Grease a 12-cup bundt pan pan with nonstick cooking
spray; set aside. Preheat oven to 350-degrees F.
With an electric mixer, beat butter and sugar until

smooth. Beat in eggs, one at a time, until well


incorporated. Add half the our, beat well, add orange
juice and beat well. Add remainder of our, beating
well and lastly the cherry juice, beating once again
until smooth.
Fold in cherries until evenly distributed. Pour into
prepared pan and bake 45-55 minutes, or until is is
cracked on top and feels rm to the touch in the center
portion of the cake ring. Remove from oven to cool
slighty before carefully running a knife around the
outer edge and inner ring to help loosen. Carefully
invert onto serving plate or platter to completely
cool.
Meanwhile for the glaze, whisk together powdered
sugar with orange juice concentrate. Pour over cooled
cake and serve.

THIS WEEKS SUPER CROSSWORD PUZZLE ON PAGE 18

GO FIGURE

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


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

Best described as a number crossword, the task in


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

he job market can be competitive,


as new graduates flood the field
each and every year. But graduation season is not the only time of
year when the competition to find work gets
heated.

The start of the new year tends to be one of the busiest times of
year for new hires. According to the employment resource Simply
Hired, the first Monday after New Years Day tends to be the busiest
day for job search activity. Companies are returning to full production after the holidays, and as a result there is a flurry of new activity.
This means applicants can use the last quarter of the year to prepare
for job searches they will institute once the calendar turns.
Many job seekers may benefit from revamping their rsums
before beginning their search. Its not uncommon for recruiters to
receive thousands of rsums for each job opening they post, and
the sheer volume of applicants can make it difficult for job seekers
to get their rsums seen. In such instances, job seekers must take
steps to tip the odds in their favor. By following these guidelines, job
seekers may have a better chance of getting their rsums into the
right hands.
Put a professional purpose. Modern standards may suggest that
listing a career objective is old fashioned. However, it is helpful
to customize your rsum so that it is geared toward the position
for which you are applying. A career objective may reflect how you
are a strong candidate for each specific job you apply for. Use some
specifics that tie into to the particular job or company and you may
catch the hiring managers attention in the process.
Embrace keywords. Many employers now use application tracking software to sift through the scores of rsums that are submitted
for each opening they post. Keywords make it easy for employers
to sort through thousands of rsums. The right keywords will flag
your rsum and increase your relevancy score in the main HR/
recruiting software programs available. Adapt your rsum for each
application you submit. Use some of the words listed in the initial

job posting and description. In addition, look at similar job postings


and incorporate some keywords listed in those ads so that you have
all the bases covered.
Trim the fat. Less is often more regarding rsums. List all of the
pertinent information, then go over the rsum again and again and
cut out any irrelevant information to remove clutter. Only include
information that is relevant to your career goals.
Highlight what you have done. Rather than listing every job
responsibility and position in chronological order, use a rsum
to highlight specific career accomplishments. This is a time to be
your biggest fan and tell the world all of the great things you have
accomplished. Remember to include evidence to back up the claims.
According to a 2015 survey by CareerBuilder, employers say that
rsums that include links to a candidates portfolio, website or blog
garner more attention than rsums without such links.
Put your own voice in the rsum. Rather than using standard
verbiage on your rsum, personalize what you want to say. Hiring
managers want to hire a human, not a machine. When speaking
about yourself, be sure to use strong action words that define your
skills even further. HR professionals cite terms like managed,
achieved and improved as examples of positive, assertive words.
Updating a rsum with the goal of standing out among a crowded
pool of applicants is a great way for job seekers to land a new job.

Writing a resume is another aspect of the job


hunt that can stoke your nerves. Men and women
may pour over job timelines and skill summaries
for hours in an effort to ensure they have included
the right mix of information to get noticed.
Though resume writing has changed considerably over the years, some conventional wisdom
about resumes still prevails, and how closely
potential applicants adhere to these rules goes a
long way toward determining if they earn a chance
at an interview.
* Me, myself and I: While the resume should
showcase your professional accomplishments, it
also should showcase how your skills relate to the
job youre applying for. This way the company
understands you have researched the position and
are in tune with what theyre looking for in an
applicant.
* One document for all responses: A resume is
not a static document. It needs to change depending on the job youre applying to. Although there
will be certain information that can remain the
same, update the skills and other information
based on each position.
* One page is best: Applicants were long told to
keep their resumes concise, limiting the document
to just one page. However, if your experience
is extensive or one page cannot contain a long

job history, dont be afraid to submit a two-page


resume.
* Failing to be selective: You need not include
your entire job history on a resume, especially if
certain past positions you have held are completely irrelevant to the position for which you are
applying. Dont be afraid of job gaps, either. Many
of todays recruiters understand that the changing
economy can make it challenging to maintain
steady employment.
* Overembellishment: Do not embellish your
skills. Always be open and honest on your resume.
You may be asked to prove you can perform
certain tasks, and if you cannot back up what is
included on a resume, you will have wasted your
time and the time the interviewer spent discussing
his companys opening with you.
* Imperfections: A resume is a reflection of you,
so one with typographical errors or a poor layout
is never acceptable. Ensure your resume is as professional and error-free as possible. Have a friend
or a proofreader look it over before distributing.
* Paid positions: Internships or volunteer work
are perfectly acceptable to include on a resume,
particularly for younger applicants who may not
have a wealth of professional experience. Include
a mix of information on the resume that will
reflect your versatility.

Stemless Daisy
Q: I have inherited a sugar
shaker that has been identified as a piece of Stemless
Daisy. What can you tell me about it?
-- Betty, Portsmouth, Virginia
A: Stemless Daisy -- sometimes known as Cosmos pottery
-- is pattern glass that was produced from roughly 1895
until 1915 by the Consolidated Lamp and Glass Company.
Almost all of the pieces I have seen are made of milk glass,
but there are exceptions. The relief-molded flowers are
generally on a finely crosscut background and painted in
soft colors, including blue, pink and yellow.
Your sugar shaker is considered rare, and depending on its
condition could be worth as much as $650.
***
Q: In 1937, I received a composition and stuffed cloth doll
of Mickey Mouse. It is marked knickerbocker and is
about 12 tall and in excellent condition. A neighbor has
offered me $250 for it, but I wanted to check with you
first.
-- Arthur, Austin, TX
A: I found your doll referenced in the Official Hakes
Price Guide to Character Toys by Ted Hake and published
by House of Collectibles. According to Hake, if your doll
is truly in excellent condition it could be worth as much as
$1,200.
***
Q: I have seven Daguerreotype pictures. They are in fairly
good condition, but no cases. What would be the average
price if I want to sell them? -- Mildred, Laurel, Indiana
A: It really depends on the images. Most of the
Daguerreotypes I have seen in antique shops have been
priced in the $30 to $50 range. If any of your pictures show
children with toys, men in Civil War-era uniforms, or other
than studio poses, they could be worth much more.
***
Q: I have a set of Heston National Finals Rodeo belt buckles issued in 1975 and 2016. The buckles are mint and have
never been worn. How much are they worth?
--Wade, Orton, Minnesota
A: I contacted a rodeo memorabilia collector who thought
your buckles would be valued in the $15 to $25 range. This
was confirmed when I checked eBay and found dozens of
Heston rodeo buckles, mostly offered for $15 and $20
each.

Is Your Pet Ready for Air Travel?


DEAR PAWS CORNER:
I just read the letter from
a reader whos been
asked to return a cat to its
original owner. I hope
that if they send the cat
back, they dont send it
by air! Animals are put in
the airplanes baggage
compartment, which is
not heated. I recently was
on a plane with a seat display showing the outside temperature as 70 below zero.
-- Sarah S., via email
DEAR SARAH: Ill probably hear otherwise from a few
readers, but transporting pets on aircraft is fairly safe, and
they are not exposed to sub-zero temperatures while in the
cargo hold. Of course, weve all heard about pets that were
injured or died while being transported, so I looked into
this claim.
According to Pets Express, one of several companies that
specialize in transporting animals via commercial aircraft,
Air travel is as safe for pets as it is for people. Your pet
will travel in a special cargo compartment [which is] both
climate controlled and pressurized for your pets safety and
comfort. It is on the same air circulation system as the
cabin.
That said, traveling as cargo is not for every dog and cat.
Pets that are elderly, easily stressed or have existing mediECHO
cal conditions
can be at risk of developing health problems
or even dying during transport. Many airlines prohibit

The Benefits Of Hiring Professional Contractors

The DIY movement has inspired many homeowners to


tackle home repair and remodeling projects on their own. DIY
projects can be rewarding, and many homeowners who have
embraced the DIY movement have discovered talents they
never before knew they had.
But no matter how simple popular home renovation television shows make remodeling projects appear, homeowners
should know that such undertakings are far more difficult than
they appear on television. Homeowners who overestimate
their abilities and the time they have to complete projects can
cost themselves substantial amounts of money. In fact, there
are a variety of reasons homeowners might want to work with
professional contractors when tackling home improvement
projects.

through to completion.
Cost
Conventional wisdom suggests its less expensive to do
something yourself than to hire someone else to do it for you,
but thats not necessarily true of home improvement projects.
Labor costs typically account for a substantial amount of professionally contracted projects, but homeowners can cut those
costs by volunteering to do some of the simpler tasks themselves. In addition, contractors often purchase materials at a
much lower cost than individual homeowners because contractors buy in bulk. So while labor costs might be lower on
DIY projects, the cost of materials can offset those savings.

Experience
A trial and error approach can work with various projects therefore more likely than DIYers to complete a project on
and problems. But applying such an approach to home im- time and on budget.
provement projects is risky and potentially dangerous, not
Inspiration
to mention costly. Experienced professional contractors with
One oft-overlooked benefit of working with professional
strong track records (seek recommendations from friends or
neighbors) wont have to go through trial and error and are contractors is the likelihood that they can draw up ideas for
projects that homeowners might otherwise never have thought
up on their own. Homeowners without specific ideas in mind
can ask contractors to come up with various scenarios before
committing to a particular one. Veteran contractors can draw
on years of experience to create designs that DIYers might
be incapable of coming up with and/or incapable of seeing

Resale value
Many homeowners renovate their homes with eyes on improving the resale value of those homes. But if homeowners
want to showcase a newly remodeled kitchen when selling
their homes, they should be prepared for prospective buyers
to ask who worked on the project. Fearing potential problems
down the road, some buyers might be put off by homes that
were remodeled by DIYers and not professional contractors.
Renovating a home on your own can be a rewarding project
for homeowners. But its important that homeowners recognize the many benefits of working with professional contractors before making any final decisions with regard to who will
tackle their next project.

ERASE BAD CREDIT FOREVER!
Credit repair companies make
false claims and promises to
erase a trail of unpaid bills or
late payments from your credit
report. However, only time can
erase negative, but accurate
credit information. In addition,
federal law forbids credit repair companies from collecting money before they provide
their service. TIP: If you have
questions about your credit
history or you want to know
how to get a free copy of your
credit report call the ATTORNEY GENERALS CONSUMER ASSISTANCE PROGRAM
at 1-800-649-2424. Dont
send any money to a credit repair company until you check
it out.

Various factors guide a persons decision when buying a vehicle. What one person nds attractive may not appeal to another buyer. One buying trend that has
emerged among American car buyers is their preference for a certain body type.
According to analysis of new vehicle retail registrations by IHS Automotive in
2014, SUVs and crossovers accounted for 36.5 percent of the new vehicle market,
versus 35.4 percent for sedans. Consumers are increasingly drawn to attributes
like higher ground clearance, more interior space, stronger towing capacity, and
higher seat positions. Sedans still draw attention, but theyre losing ground to
larger vehicles, resulting in a major shift in the automotive market. The study also
found that pickup trucks and hatchbacks have lost more share in the past few years
than any other vehicle categories.

hen the time comes to choose flooring for


their homes, homeowners may be overwhelmed by the vast array of options at
their disposal. The choice between carpet
and hardwood flooring, laminate or tile is a matter of
personal preference. People have long extolled the virtues
of hardwood flooring, but carpeting can be just as stylish
and provides a host of other benefits as well.
Carpeting insulates rooms in the summer and winter, adding that extra level of
protection against the elements. Carpeting also absorbs sound in a home. Many appreciate the warmth and cozy feeling of carpet, especially when stepping out of bed.
Carpeting also can increase the level of safety at home. According to the Carpet and
Rug Institute, carpeting makes areas of play safer and may also reduce the severity of
an injury in the event of a fall.
Today, there are many different types of carpeting available. Selecting the right carpeting for a room comes down to identifying the level of traffic in a particular room,
the attributes homeowners would like the carpet to have and any other needs that fit
with their lifestyles. The following guidelines can make carpet shopping a bit easier.
Type of carpeting
There are many different types of carpeting, some of which are best suited to

certain situations. For example, plush and saxony carpets are better in low-traffic
areas. These carpets may show footprints and also vacuum tracks and dirt, but
theyre higher on the comfort spectrum than other types of carpet. Berber, which is
more flat and dense, helps mask stains and tracks. It is durable in high-traffic areas.
Textured carpets like frieze are cut from fibers of different heights, so they mask
stains and are also softer on the feet than berber.

Padding
Padding can impact the way carpeting feels and how long it lasts. It isnt always
necessary to purchase the most expensive or thickest padding. However, it is wise
to pick a pad that matches the type of carpeting youre selecting and one that aligns
with how you plan to use the room. You may be able to go with a thinner pad in
low-traffic rooms and beneath dense carpeting like berber. In high-traffic rooms,
choose a thicker, more durable padding. Padding prevents carpet backing and fibers
from coming apart over time. It pays to invest in a padding that will last as well.
Installation
Select a reliable carpet retailer and installer for your business. Competent
installers will lay the carpeting in the correct manner so that it will look beautiful
and maintain its durability for the life of the product. Shop around to find the right
installer or even do the work yourself if you feel capable.
Take time when shopping for carpeting, which is a substantial investment that
can last for many years if the right material is chosen and installed correctly.

Create drama with bold paint colors


ainting is one of the easiest and least expensive
ways to transform the look of a space. Paint
colors can dramatically change the mood and
the design of a home. And depending on a homeowners goals, paint can make a statement or blend into
the background.

Many people are now looking to bold colors to make spaces stand out. But choosing a paint color can be challenging. Homeowners looking to update walls and complement decor may want to look at some of the more impactful colors that Pantone
indicates will be popular for the 2017 season. Primrose Yellow, Lapis Blue, Flame,
Pink Yarrow, and Greenery are some of the more eye-catching selections. Once colors
are selected, consider these guidelines for using bolder colors in room designs.
Decide how big an impact you want to make. Are you looking for color overload
or just a small focal point of vivid color? Remember, using bold color doesnt mean
every wall must be lathered in that hue. Instead, select one wall to serve as an accent
point and use that spot as your bold color display. Otherwise, rely on bold colors to

dress up otherwise mundane areas, such as the back wall of a cupboard or moldings
and trim.
Try bold in a small space. Many people are surprised at how well bold colors work
in small spaces. Powder rooms can be an ideal spot to experiment with paint colors.
Try deep colors that can make the area seem intimate and even exotic. Dark, bold
hues can be toned down by different accents, such as neutral colored fixtures and
towels.
Go bold in the kitchen. Incorporate a splash of color in the kitchen without going
overboard. Try an appliance or design fixture in a bright shade. Or paint the inside of
the cabinets in your favorite color and install glass inserts in the cabinet doors so that
everyone gets a peek of the color beyond. A neutral kitchen also can be brightened up
with the use of silverware, dishes, pots and pans, and other kitchen items featured in
bold hues.
Stick to boldness on interchangeable items. Those who like to experiment with
color may find that they like to switch out the colors now and again. Instead of having
to repaint every few months, use decorative items in bright shades to make swapping
out color that much easier. For example, replace area rugs, throw pillows and draperies. Paint over terra cotta flower pots when the mood strikes.

VALENTINES DAY 2017 | THE WORLD

Valentines traditions from around the world

alentines Day is celebrated across the


globe. Come Valentines Day, candy,
owers and other gifts are exchanged
between sweethearts in one of the
many traditions associated with the holiday.

sweetie(s) at our

The origins of Valentines Day are largely unknown. Some suggest Valentines Day was initially a way to honor St. Valentine on the
anniversary of his death. Others believe it was the Christian churchs
way of Christianizing the Pagan celebration of Lupercalia, a fertility
festival dedicated to Faunus, the Roman god of agriculture.
Regardless of its origins, Valentines Day is now celebrated by
millions and is one of the retail industrys most lucrative shopping
holidays.
Many different traditions can be linked to Valentines Day. Here
is a list of the interesting ways Valentines Day is celebrated across
the globe.
SOUTH KOREA
In South Korea, men get to enjoy the spotlight on Valentines Day,
as women bestow gifts of chocolate on them. In return, a month later
men reciprocate with gifts for women on White Day. South Koreans
take Valentines Day a step further on Black Day, which falls on
April 14. This is an opportunity for all single people who may not
have received Valentines Day gifts to gather at restaurants and eat a
dish called black noodles as they celebrate their singleton status.
DENMARK AND NORWAY
These Scandinavian countries didnt really celebrate Valentines
Day until recently, but have now put their own spin on the traditions.
Men write funny poems or rhyming love notes called Gaekkebrev
and send them to women anonymously. Women must try to guess
their admirers by counting dots that are put on the note that correspond to the number of letters in the mans name.
ESTONIA
In Estonia, Valentines Day is a day more devoted to friendship
than romantic love. It is called Sbrapev in Estonian, which
translates to Friends Day. Cards and gifts are exchanged among
friends.
WALES
In Wales, Valentines Day is not celebrated. Rather, the Welsh
commemorate St. Dwynwens Day, who is their patron saint of lovers on January 25. It is customary to gift love-spoons, a tradition that
likely stems from the practice of sailors carving intricately decorated

spoons of wood and presenting them to women they were interested


in courting or marrying.
FRANCE
Considered to be one of the most romantic countries in the world,
France can be an ideal place to participate in Valentines Day traditions. The French have an old custom called une loterie damour,
which is a drawing for love. Single men and women of all ages
once entered houses that$85

another and took turns calling
out to one another to nd romantic matches. The men could refuse
the match and leave the woman looking for another man to call on.
Women who were not paired up would light a bonre and damn the
men who rejected them. The French government eventually banned
the practice because of rowdy crowds.

ITALY
Italian lovers celebrate Valentines Day in much the same way
as Americans. One interesting Valentines tradition in Italy is
locking padlocks to different structures, which is called Lucchetti
dellAmore (locks of love). Couples attach the locks to bridges,
railings and lamp posts, inscribe their names and throw away the
key. The action suggests the couple will be together forever.
