Project Independence Hopes to<br />

Preserve 2<strong>01</strong>7 in Time Capsule<br />

By Katie Moritz<br />

The American short story writer<br />

Katherine Anne Porter once wrote:<br />

“The past is never where you think you<br />

left it.” This is particularly true for time capsules.<br />

But Project Independence, an adult day<br />

health service center located in downtown<br />

Barre, is determined to remember.<br />

At 2PM on a Friday afternoon, December<br />

29, 2<strong>01</strong>7, staff and Project Independence<br />

participants gathered items they deemed<br />

important symbols of currents times and<br />

placed them in a time capsule, which they<br />

then buried in the basement of their building,<br />

located at 81 North Main Street, Suite #1.<br />

They do not intend to open it until 2PM,<br />

December 29, 2<strong>01</strong>8. Many participants wondered<br />

how different the world and the local<br />

area would become over 365 days. One participant<br />

commented that “It will be interesting<br />

to see how many businesses on our list of<br />

businesses have changed in a year.”<br />

Items in the time capsule included a Project<br />

Independence business card, a current list of<br />

employees, a December Project Independence<br />

calendar, a current Times Argus newspaper<br />

article, a piece of granite from Rock of Ages,<br />

a listing of Silly Vermont Laws still on the<br />

books in Barre, a list of businesses located on<br />

Main Street, a blessing for future participants<br />

and staff, a Bingo card, some current photos<br />

of participants, and even a copy of the<br />

WORLD’s Year in Review.<br />

Also included was a bible, which, as one<br />

participant stated, “was very important” to<br />

many folks, and a photo of Donna Moran, a<br />

regular volunteer and performer who keeps<br />

the front windows decorated according to the<br />

seasons. Even Moran’s guitar pick made it<br />

in.<br />

Although Project Independence’s time<br />

capsule, which will be registered with the<br />

International Time Capsule Society, is in<br />

many ways ordinary, it also represents larger<br />

themes. Bingo, which is the most popular<br />

game played at the center, brings folks<br />

together in a shared sense of fun; photos of<br />

staff, volunteers, and participants offer a<br />

visual reminder of connection; a piece of<br />

granite symbolizes the strength and endurance<br />

of Barre; newspaper articles offer<br />

glimpses into community.<br />

Time capsules in general are an interesting<br />

phenomenon and often the history surrounding<br />

the capsule itself can be just as intriguing<br />

as what is actually inside. When going over<br />

the list of the ten most wanted time capsules<br />

according to the International Time Capsule<br />

Society at Oglethorpe University in Georgia,<br />

it may be a surprise to find that Vermont<br />

makes the list.<br />

In <strong>18</strong>91, the town of Lyndon celebrated its<br />

<strong>10</strong>0th anniversary. According to an article<br />

published on July <strong>10</strong>th, <strong>18</strong>91 in The Vermont<br />

Journal, the town of Lyndon decided to commemorate<br />

it with a time capsule that was not<br />

to be opened for another one hundred years.<br />

When 1991 came around, the Lyndon<br />

Bicentennial Commission went looking.<br />

According to a New York Times article titled<br />

“Search for Piece of Past Offers Lesson for<br />

Future,” the author states that the commission<br />

“looked in attics and basements, bank<br />

vaults and file cabinets. And still no time<br />

capsule.”<br />

There are several explanations: perhaps it<br />

was left in a house or location that, due to<br />

fire, or change in ownership, was relocated<br />

and lost in the shuffle; perhaps someone simply<br />

took the contents from it; or perhaps it<br />

was never buried at all, as the weather was<br />

harsh on that day, and according to records,<br />

several planned activities has been canceled.<br />

As 2<strong>01</strong>8 takes off, it’s easy to think back to<br />

the past year and wonder where bits and<br />

pieces of one’s life have gone. As things<br />

change, and as we ourselves change, we may<br />

look back in hopes of finding something in its<br />

original form. Something to remind us.<br />

Something to mark how far we have come.<br />

Or at least a good story to explain why we<br />

can’t find it at all.<br />

Project Independence plans to skip all that<br />

drama though, and keep close tabs on their<br />

time capsule. It’ll be interesting to see what<br />

has changed and what has remained the<br />

same.<br />

Armstrong Farm in Calais Conserved,<br />

New Farm Business Established<br />

Ella Armstrong, who has conserved a scenic<br />

and productive farm in Calais with the<br />

Vermont Land Trust, has sold the land to<br />

farmer Mike Betit, who has moved his organic<br />

vegetable business to the property.<br />

Ella grew up on the 129-acres of land,<br />

located at the intersection of Pekin Brook,<br />

Peck Hill and George Roads. Her family ran a<br />

small dairy farm there until 2<strong>01</strong>5. When Ella<br />

inherited the property, she knew she wanted it<br />

to remain a farm, as did her neighbors. She<br />

decided to work with the Vermont Land Trust<br />

to conserve the land and find a new farmer to<br />

buy it.<br />

Jon Ramsay of the Vermont Land Trust felt<br />

that Ella’s farm was a good candidate for the<br />

land trust’s Farmland Access Program, which<br />

helps farmers buy their first land and start or<br />

expand their business.<br />

“Land is expensive in Vermont and difficult<br />

to buy on a farming income,” said Jon. “Yet,<br />

it’s these farms that make Vermont what it<br />

is.”<br />

“This was the only way I could do it,” said<br />

Ella as she passed the ownership deed over to<br />

Mike. “Our family put so much into the<br />

land—the hard work we did—I’m glad to see<br />

it will remain a farm.”<br />

By selling a conservation easement on the<br />

land that limits development, subdivision, and<br />

protects water quality, Ella was able to sell the<br />

farm at a reduced price to Mike.<br />

Mike has farmed for 17 years as part of<br />

Tamarack Hollow Farms, raising livestock<br />

and then organic vegetables. He was selected<br />

to buy the land after a competitive business<br />

proposal process. The opportunity to own<br />

significant acreage meant he could expand.<br />

“Hoolie Flats Farm is my new business,”<br />

explained Mike. “The foundation is growing<br />

bulk storage crops for a few large buyers in<br />

New York City… I’m looking at perennial<br />

production that makes use of the acreage that<br />

won’t work for annuals, and I’m hoping to<br />

• • •<br />

build in a livestock component as well.”<br />

Ella leased her farm to Mike while the conservation<br />

and fundraising process happened.<br />

In this time, he made improvements to the<br />

farmhouse and barns, and built hoophouses.<br />

The farm wasn’t just loved by Ella, it was<br />

also very important to the community.<br />

“The Town of Calais was very pleased to<br />

support VLT’s efforts to conserve the<br />

Armstrong Farm and bring it back to life as a<br />

working farm,” said Denise Wheeler, chair of<br />

the Calais Selectboard, which voted to contribute<br />

$30,000 from the town’s conservation<br />

fund at a recommendation of the conservation<br />

commission. “We were thrilled to see vegetables<br />

growing in the fields last summer.”<br />

The community was also interested in protecting<br />

wetland areas and public access to<br />

Pekin Brook for fishing and swimming.<br />

Recreational access to the brook and water<br />

quality were both incorporated into the farm’s<br />

conservation protections.<br />

“The inclusion of a river corridor easement<br />

to protect the water quality of the Pekin Brook<br />

that runs through the farm added to the value<br />

this project has for the town,” added Denise.<br />

In addition to town funding, the project was<br />

made possible through funding provided by<br />

the Vermont Housing & Conservation Board,<br />

the USDA Natural Resources Conservation<br />

Service, the Vermont Department of<br />

Environmental Conservation, and The Nature<br />

Conservancy under a grant from Keurig Green<br />

Mountain, Inc.<br />

In a strong show of support, community<br />

members closed the final fundraising gap by<br />

contributing $50,000 toward the project.<br />

“So many people wanted this land protected,”<br />

said Jon. “We are grateful to the community<br />

and to the organizations, agencies, and<br />

businesses that made this project possible.”<br />

Live vibrant. Live local. Live here.<br />

Disaster Declaration<br />

Approved For Vermont<br />

Governor Phil Scott has announced that President Donald<br />

Trump has signed a major disaster declaration for Addison,<br />

Chittenden, Essex, Franklin, Grand Isle, Lamoille, Orange,<br />

Orleans, Washington, and Windham counties. Those counties<br />

suffered substantial damage during wind and rain storms on<br />

October 29 and 30.<br />

A Preliminary Damage Assessment (PDA) by the Federal<br />

Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) identified $3.7<br />

million in public infrastructure damage statewide far exceeding<br />

the $1 million minimum Vermont must show to be considered<br />

for a disaster declaration. That estimate only accounts for<br />

enough identified damage to qualify for federal Public<br />

Assistance funding.<br />

Addison, Chittenden, Essex, Franklin, Grand Isle, Lamoille,<br />

Orange, Orleans, Washington, and Windham counties each<br />

exceeded the $3.68 per capita threshold needed to qualify<br />

communities and public utilities in those counties for assistance.<br />

A preponderance of the damage involved power restoration:<br />

line work, power pole replacement, and contractor<br />

assistance.<br />

The Public Assistance disaster declaration allows communities<br />

and public utilities in those counties to receive 75 percent<br />

federal reimbursement for storm response and recovery.<br />

Those costs include power restoration, debris removal, and<br />

repairs to public roads, bridges, and other infrastructure with<br />

damage resulting from the storm.<br />

Vermont Emergency Management will soon announce multiple<br />

applicant briefings, which Town leaders should attend to<br />

start the process for seeking federal assistance. The briefings<br />

will outline the requirements for receiving federal awards and<br />

maximizing eligibility of repairs. Vermont Emergency<br />

Management, Agency of Transportation District personnel,<br />

and the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA)<br />

will guide them through the application process.<br />

The declaration also includes funds from the Hazard<br />

Mitigation Grant Program (HMGP) for towns, state agencies,<br />

and approved non-profit organizations statewide. This program<br />

provides funding for a variety of mitigation activities,<br />

including home buyouts, structural elevations, flood proofing<br />

and public infrastructure upgrades for roads, bridges and culverts<br />

in vulnerable locations.<br />

Personal Umbrella<br />

Insurance Policy in Action<br />

To better understand how a personal umbrella policy works, here’s an example:<br />

If you’re at fault in a car accident that injures another driver, your<br />

regular automobile insurance will cover the other driver’s injuries up to the<br />

limit you selected, let’s say $<strong>10</strong>0,000 as an example. But what happens if that<br />

limit is not enough to cover the other driver’s injuries?<br />

If the other driver’s injuries are<br />

severe, they may require benefits<br />

beyond the $<strong>10</strong>0,000 limit of your<br />

policy. In this case, they could sue you<br />

for the difference, which means your<br />

personal assets would be at stake. This<br />

could be a small amount or a large<br />

amount. Imagine if that injured driver<br />

were a surgeon or another high paying<br />

professional. What if the accident you<br />

caused resulted in an injury that kept<br />

them from doing his or her job for six<br />

months? Suddenly, they are suing you<br />

for $1 million to cover the six months<br />

they are away from work.<br />

Your automobile policy covers the<br />

initial $<strong>10</strong>0,000, but where would you<br />

come up with the remaining $900,000?<br />

A personal Umbrella Policy can<br />

cover the additional costs when your<br />

insurance isn’t enough. The policy<br />

could provide the additional 1 Million<br />

Dollars typically, on top of your<br />

Homeowner’s or Automobile Policy<br />

it can also go over any toys you may<br />

own, Boat, Motorcycle etc. This extra<br />

policy could protect your bank account,<br />

home, future earnings, and other<br />

personal property.<br />

You need a Personal Umbrella<br />

policy if you...<br />

• Own a Home.<br />

• Own an Automobile, Boat,<br />

Motorcycle etc.<br />

• Young Driver’s.<br />

• Want to protect your future earnings.<br />

• Want to protect your assets.<br />

Classic Journalism Film Series<br />

Saturday, January 13 at 2:30pm<br />

We’re delving into some of the greatest<br />

films ever made, all on the timely topic<br />

of journalism, free speech, and freedom<br />

of the press. In this month’s feature,<br />

David Strathairn stars as CBS journalist<br />

Edward R. Murrow and George Clooney (who also directed)<br />

co-stars as Murrow’s producer Fred Friendly. Morrow struck<br />

one of the early blows against the guilt-by-association tactics<br />

of Senator Joseph McCarthy, and the film centers on the<br />

Murrow-McCarthy conflict that unfolded in 1953. Introduction<br />

of each film and discussion afterwards led by Rick Winston.<br />

Free popcorn! This series runs on second Saturdays from<br />

December - March. For titles and rating information, call 476-<br />

Walter Rudolph Wells, Jr<br />

Walter Rudolph Wells, Jr,<br />

age 85, of Berlin, VT,<br />

passed away January 1, 2<strong>01</strong>8 at his<br />

home surrounded by his children and<br />

loving spouse of 65 years, Mary.<br />

Walter was born April 2, 1932, the<br />

son of Walter Rudolph Wells, Sr., and<br />

Dorothy Mae (Frost) Wells at Berlin,<br />

VT.. He was the eldest of 8 children,<br />

6 brothers: Francis, Raymond,<br />

William, Edward, Richard, George, and one sister:<br />

Barbara. He attended schools in Berlin, and high school<br />

at both Montpelier High, Montpelier, VT and Spaulding<br />

in Barre, Vt. August 29, 1952, Walter married his sweetheart,<br />

Mary (Sherman) Wells. As the young couple had<br />

recently rented their first apartment, Mary had received<br />

notice of Walter’s draft the morning of the wedding.<br />

They were well into their honeymoon at Niagara Falls<br />

before she shared the news with him. He served our<br />

country proudly in Korea from 1952-1954 as a platoon<br />

Sergeant, and earned the rank of Sgt 1st Class. Their<br />

marriage was blessed with 5 children: Cindy Wells,<br />

Vickie Settle, Terry Bessette, Todd Wells, and Melissa<br />

(Bydie) Cloutier. Walter spent his career in the Granite<br />

Industry where he worked 38 years in many different<br />

positions at S. L Garand’s in Montpelier before retiring<br />

in 1993. It was not unusual for him to bring polished<br />

granite samples home to share with the family and<br />

explain the different characteristics of each one. If it<br />

wasn’t Barre granite it was never quite high quality in his<br />

book. He also enjoyed working in the building trade with<br />

B & H Builders. The expertise he took away from that<br />

employment he applied in building the family camp on<br />

Nelson Pond in 1966, and in 1974 the family home complete<br />

with a sugar house for his Mary. Many March days<br />

have found Walter, Mary, and the family collecting and<br />

boiling sap and finishing off the season with a sugar on<br />

snow party. Family always came first. Walter was the<br />

true patriarch of the family and loved when the house<br />

was filled with children and grandchildren. He especially<br />

loved holding the little ones and was fascinated by them.<br />

There was nothing he wouldn’t do for his family. He<br />

replaced many VW engines and kept all of the kid’s cars<br />

on the road as long as he could convince one of them to<br />

hold the flashlight. Walter was passionate about everything<br />

he pursued. He loved cars. He loved working on<br />

them, collecting them and racing them. In his younger<br />

years he spent hours with friends building stock cars and<br />

racing at “Thunder Road.” He raced car # 67 and later<br />

5-W. It was there that Ken Squire gave him the nickname<br />

of, “Wally,” that has followed him since. He was an avid<br />

water skier and even mastered bare foot skiing. At that<br />

point his nickname became, “Wet Foot Wally” and he<br />

proudly wore it on his t-shirt. He turned to hunting in the<br />

fall and spent many hours honing his skill with bow and<br />

rifle for deer hunting and his shot gun for turkey season.<br />

The winter months he spent trail riding with family and<br />

friends on snow machines. Walter was a member of the<br />

Berlin Congregational Church, the Berlin Historical<br />

Society, Berlin Cemetery Association, Central Vermont<br />

Kustom Klassics, Northfield Snow Marauders, American<br />

Legion, and The Nelson Pond Association. Walter is<br />

survived by spouse Mary, children: Cindy Wells of St.<br />

Johnsbury, VT, Vickie Settle and spouse Rich of<br />

McPherson, KS, Terry Bessette of Barre Town, VT, Todd<br />

Wells and spouse Serena,of Barre, VT, and Melissa<br />

(Bydie) Cloutier of St. Johnsbury, VT, and siblings:<br />

Richard Wells Danville ,N.H., George Wells ,Silverton,<br />

Oregon, and Barbara Chapin ,Silverton, Oregon. 13<br />

grandchildren and 20 great-grandchildren, as well as his<br />

support in the tragic loss of our mom, Alice Mary (Taplin)<br />

Doyle. Our hearts go out to the first responders, Chelsea<br />

Volunteer Fire Department, and First Branch Ambulance, as<br />

well as the Mutual Aid departments from Tunbridge,<br />

Washington, Williamstown, and E. Corinth, including their<br />

chaplin, and others who may have responded to the call. Small<br />

communities are family and we recognize that our loss is also<br />

your loss. We appreciate and thank you for your commitment<br />

to helping others. Thank you to the Vermont State Police for<br />

your diligence in investigating. We greatly appreciate your<br />

efforts in trying to determine a cause. Thank you to Boardway<br />

and Cilley Funeral Home for your care and attention to mom<br />

and our family. There were long lines of people waiting outside<br />

during the calling hours, but what a true testament of the<br />

love for our mom and our family. We are so grateful. Thanks<br />

to Pastor Tom Harty; organist Dale Post; soloist Bill Smith;<br />

fiddler Scott Campbell; and the many folks who spoke at the<br />

heartfelt celebration of mom’s life. It was a service to be<br />

remembered and we hope everyone left with a smile. Thank<br />

you to the United Church of Chelsea, the Lady Washington<br />

Chapter O.E.S., and the VFW Post 792 Auxiliary. Thank you<br />

for the food, flowers, and cards. Thank you to those who traveled<br />

great distances in the snow and cold, it warmed our hearts<br />

to see you. Thank you for all the love and support shown. We<br />

are truly grateful.<br />

Sincerely, Teresa, Sandy, Jim, Andy, and our families and<br />

Whit & Beverly (Taplin) Lewis.<br />

The Joy of Killing Is Nothing New &<br />

Coyotes Have Been a Favorite<br />

Scapegoat<br />

Dear Editor:<br />

It does not require a very deep dive on social media to find<br />

gleeful “attaboys” and detailed sharing of body counts and<br />

bloodlust, all directed at coyotes. Now we learn of yet another<br />

statewide killing contest that<br />

has been scheduled for the<br />

entire month of February and<br />

hosted by a retailer and gun<br />

club in Windham County.<br />

And afterwards we will no<br />

doubt be treated to triumphant<br />

photos of coyote corpses<br />

stacked like cordwood.<br />

The joy of killing is nothing<br />

new; and coyotes have<br />

been a favorite scapegoat as<br />

long as humans have been<br />

raising livestock. It’s bad<br />

enough that Vermont has a<br />

perpetual open season on<br />

coyotes. But the sheer recklessness<br />

of mowing down as many animals as possible, with<br />

the goal of winning a prize, is something we should all come<br />

together to condemn; not only because it exalts blood sport as<br />

something worthy, but because it is a stain on Vermont’s<br />

image.<br />

Equally disturbing is the current open season on coyotes,<br />

who may be killed 365 days of the year, day or night. The<br />

wasteful killing of coyotes, with hunters leaving their bodies<br />

to rot in the woods, often sadly goes hand in hand with coyote<br />

pups becoming orphaned. This open season is in direct conflict<br />

with the Fish & Wildlife Department’s own philosophy<br />

that opposes wanton waste killing. While one can always<br />

hope that people might find something more constructive to<br />

do than to “harvest” as many coyotes as they possibly can, the<br />

culpability really lies with the Fish and Wildlife Department.<br />

It is the FWD that is tasked with safeguarding and preserving<br />

Vermont’s wildlife for all its citizens, most of who object to<br />

the wasteful killing of wildlife. A survey performed by<br />

University of Vermont’s Center for Rural Studies asked<br />

Vermont residents the following: “Should Vermont wildlife<br />

policies prohibit the “wanton waste” of wildlife, except when<br />

these animals are causing damage to property or agricultural<br />

products?” The poll results revealed that 70.5% of Vermont<br />

residents opposed the wasteful destruction of our wildlife.<br />

The proponents of these contests, and even some members of<br />

the FWD, have taken issue with this poll because it clearly<br />

undermines their position. It provides powerful evidence that<br />

public sentiment is turning away from practices like this and<br />

that the time has come for a real paradigm shift.<br />

Spirit Beyond Lyrics<br />

Dear Editor:<br />

The holiday season was here and along with expressions of<br />

glad tidings and good will came the entreaties to “ keep Christ<br />

in Christmas” and not to say “Happy Holidays” and in so<br />

doing bow to “political correctness.” As I reflect on my own<br />

feelings about this, I wonder if perhaps we need a different<br />

perspective.<br />

A friend sent me a traditional Christmas card, and knowing<br />

I am Jewish wrote “Happy Hanukkah” on it. While I normally<br />

don’t favor such “mashups” and combining of holidays,<br />

I know him and his spirit, and welcomed his wishes and sentiments.<br />

This week The WORLD asked eight readers to name their<br />

favorite Christmas carol. Three responded with “Silent Night”<br />

while the other chose such pieces as “Winter Wonderland”<br />

and “Santa Claus is Coming to Town.” The church musician<br />

in me cried out, “ Those are secular Christmas songs and not<br />

carols,” instead of welcoming their genuine expressions of<br />

where they find happiness and pleasure this holiday season.<br />

Over 30 years ago I was invited to join a majority African-<br />

American gospel and spiritual choir and was the only<br />

European-American male in the ensemble. Singing this music<br />

touched me in a new and profound way even though the theology<br />

was not mine. I quickly learned to go to the spirit beyond<br />

the lyrics.<br />

In Matthew 25:40, Jesus says “As you have done for the<br />

least among us, so have you done for me.” I now understand<br />

that any expression that moves people to “do for the least<br />

among us” is good, and I hear the spirit beyond the specific<br />

words said. May it be so for all of us at this time.<br />

Downsizing<br />

H1/2<br />

Around 1900, progressive dreamers wrote a series of<br />

Utopian novels, sharing their vision of a perfect Socialist<br />

future.<br />

One thing that they all had in common was communal living.<br />

In the perfect future, they assumed people would live<br />

together in large apartment complexes.<br />

Communal living is just rudimentary common sense. It<br />

saves lumber, brick, and steel. It saves electricity. It saves fuel<br />

because people are close to town and closer to work. It saves<br />

heating oil.<br />

Somewhere in the 20th Century, this efficient communal<br />

ideal was tossed in the garbage and was replaced by the ideal<br />

that a respectable American has to live in a house.<br />

Nothing, it seems, can shake the ideal of the single-family<br />

home.<br />

It has been proven that home ownership primarily benefits<br />

big banks, oil companies, IKEA, and Home Depot. It doesn’t<br />

make the people who live inside the houses happier - just more<br />

indebted.<br />

But check out any commercial during the playoff games<br />

this weekend. Whether they are selling Fabreze, Fritos, or<br />

Pharmaceuticals, the smiling Americans in the ads are all living<br />

in spacious single-family houses. It’s as if apartment<br />

dwellers or people who share their houses with renters are too<br />

poor or too uncivilized to even show on television.<br />

“Downsizing” shows us a 21st Century Utopia where<br />

almost everyone can afford to buy a house in cash.<br />

In writer/director Alexander Payne’s imaginative new<br />

world, people have the choice to undergo an irreversible procedure<br />

that reduces their size by approximately 99%.<br />

Living a new life at 5 inches tall is extremely appealing to<br />

two very different types of people: environmentalists who<br />

Central Vermont Chamber Supports Efforts that Recognize<br />

State’s Beauty and Culture<br />

The new year is upon us, and with<br />

it the return of the Vermont<br />

General Assembly to its second<br />

session of the biennial term. This<br />

means that once again the Central<br />

Vermont Chamber of Commerce, as an<br />

advocacy group, will represent the<br />

interests of Vermont’s business community.<br />

The Chamber works together<br />

with the Vermont Chamber, other local<br />

Chambers of Commerce, and various<br />

other business groups.<br />

The Chamber is a membership based organization, led by a<br />

very active Board of Directors. The Board has several committees<br />

that report to it, one of which is our Public Policy<br />

Committee. Our Public Policy Committee has met and spent<br />

several months reviewing and making changes to our Public<br />

Policy Positions. These positions, once adopted by the Board<br />

then become the official policy of The Chamber.<br />

During the coming session, The Chamber will once again<br />

be engaged with a number of issues and this week and next, I<br />

will be presenting those issues to you for your consideration.<br />

The Chamber recognizes that government has a responsibility<br />

to support and protect all citizens. The Chamber is<br />

cognizant of the fact that government has a direct role to play<br />

in creating a climate that is conducive to growing the economy<br />

Ṫhe Chamber has adopted the following policies in an<br />

effort to expand our economic profile, support our environment,<br />

and create jobs.<br />

Budget and Taxes: The Central VT Chamber supports policies<br />

that:<br />

• Promote economic growth<br />

• Do not disproportionately burden the business community<br />

or any one business sector<br />

• Limit state government growth to no more than the historic<br />

rates of annual inflation<br />

• Reduce corporate taxes to encourage private sector growth<br />

• Rely exclusively on property taxes to fund local government<br />

• • •<br />

• • •<br />

want to leave a smaller carbon footprint. And hedonists who<br />

want to enjoy all the finer things in life (diamonds, drugs, and<br />

mansions) for a fraction of the price of regular-sized people.<br />

Alexander Payne’s point is that people are eager to buy any<br />

product that makes them feel like they are saving the planet or<br />

keeping up with the Joneses. But they aren’t willing to do the<br />

one thing that will actually lead to environmental conservation<br />

and happiness: stop wanting more things.<br />

If Payne had nailed this point home and given us a few<br />

laughs along the way, “Downsizing” would have been an<br />

American classic. But he takes the film in a very different<br />

direction. “Downsizing” is full of surprises, but each surprise<br />

takes the story further off course.<br />

Matt Damon’s lead character is so boring and bland that<br />

you never care whether he finds himself.<br />

Matt Damon was once a great movie star with a cool sense<br />

of humor. Now he seems more and more like the dense marionette<br />

caricature version of him from “Team America: <strong>World</strong><br />

Police.” When Damon isn’t educating us about the difference<br />

between butt slapping and sexual assault (wow, thanks Matt!),<br />

he is making lousy movies. What was his last decent film?<br />

2006’s “The Departed” maybe?<br />

“Downsizing” is an over-long, unfocused bummer of a<br />

film. I haven’t felt this ripped off since that time that I foolishly<br />

bought a house.<br />

• Oppose the imposition or expansion of Local Option<br />

Taxes.<br />

Education and Funding: The Central VT Chamber supports<br />

policies that:<br />

• Return Vermont per-pupil spending to no more than 130<br />

percent of the national average<br />

• Reduce property taxes by increasing the pupil-to-teacher<br />

ratio<br />

• Provides students with the option of attending any elementary<br />

or secondary school<br />

• Promote efficiencies through consolidation.<br />

Employer/Business Mandates: The Central VT Chamber<br />

supports policies that:<br />

• Hold businesses and employer mandates to a minimum<br />

• Avoid additional paperwork and reports that consume precious<br />

time and resources<br />

• Encourage business expansion and job creation.<br />

Employment and Labor: The Central VT Chamber supports<br />

policies that:<br />

• Enable employers to maintain a safe and productive working<br />

environment<br />

• Support the rights of individuals to work without being<br />

compelled to join a union or compelled to pay for any part of<br />

the cost of union representation<br />

• Provide equal pay for equal work<br />

• Support visa programs that encourage temporary workers to<br />

legally seek employment in the United States.<br />

In order to create a climate that encourages business expansion<br />

and responsible growth, The Chamber supports efforts to<br />

grow our state that recognize the inherent beauty and culture<br />

that is Vermont. We believe that adoption of these policies<br />

will lead to greater economic growth, more business investment<br />

and the creation of new jobs.<br />

Next week, I will review The Chamber’s positions on<br />

energy, health care reform, permitting and transportation. I<br />

appreciate hearing your thoughts on our positions. Feel free to<br />

Johanna Darrow Named Trustee<br />

Emerita at Helen Day Art Center<br />

Helen Day Art Center is pleased to<br />

announce the election of Johanna<br />

Darrow as Trustee Emerita. Johanna<br />

joined the Helen Day Board of Trustees<br />

in 1984 and has served the art center in<br />

numerous capacities since then - from<br />

Membership Chair to Administrative<br />

Assistant to Executive Director. In<br />

addition to countless volunteer and<br />

staff work, for 25 years Johanna<br />

planned and led the Bus Tours offered<br />

by Helen Day Art Center to regional museum and arts destinations.<br />

Rachel Moore, Executive Director, says, “what Jo<br />

brought to this organization over the many years that she was<br />

involved, was quite generous and garnered the respect of<br />

many, and ultimately the title of Trustee Emerita. We are so<br />

thankful for her commitment to the arts and this community.”<br />

Johanna has also served on various other boards locally --<br />

the Stowe Woman’s Club, United Way of Lamoille County,<br />

Copley Hospital Foundation and Friends of the Stowe Free<br />

Library, to name a few. She received the Helen Day Arts<br />

Center Art Award, and, together with her husband, Lee, she<br />

was awarded the Cliff Thompson Public Service Award -- an<br />

honor given to those who have unselfishly worked to contribute<br />

to the quality of life in the Town of Stowe.<br />

Johanna responds, “being a part of Helen Day life over the<br />

years has enriched my life immeasurably, and I am honored to<br />

have been elected Trustee Emerita. With its roots and solid<br />

foundation forged long ago by members of our Stowe community,<br />

Helen Day stands today as a vital testimony to the<br />

vision of our founders and the cooperative efforts of hundreds.<br />

Core to Helen Day’s mission has always been the education<br />

program, and I am delighted to witness at this point in our<br />

history, that much emphasis is being given to educational<br />

initiatives and programming, as well as to significantly<br />

expanding the art center’s outreach to underserved students.”<br />

Berlin Mall and Green Mountain Club Combine to Present Year<br />

Two of “Walk The Long Trail at Berlin Mall”<br />

From January 13 (MLK Weekend)-April<br />

22, 2<strong>01</strong>8 (Earth Day), the Berlin Mall<br />

welcomes walkers to experience an<br />

indoor version of the Long Trail, and<br />

help raise funds for the Green Mountain<br />

Club—official stewards of The Long Trail.<br />

Walk the Long Trail at Berlin Mall taps into Vermonters’<br />

love for the outdoors, and offers a fun, healthy, interactive and<br />

educational experience. By walking 544 laps in the mall’s<br />

heated, enclosed common area, participants can walk the<br />

equivalent of the Long Trail’s 272 miles. Photos, graphics,<br />

and other media provide the sense of being immersed in the<br />

Trail and its surroundings. Participants’ walking distances are<br />

recorded as they achieve milestones along the way, and the<br />

mall owners (Heidenberg Properties Group) are donating<br />

funds to our presenting partner, the Green Mountain Club,<br />

based on the number of miles people walk.<br />

All registered walkers receive a commemorative poster and<br />

colorful milestone stickers to track progress, plus special<br />

offers and giveaways. Walkers can register online at theberlinmall.com/walk,<br />

and onsite at the mall. In addition, special<br />

events featuring awards, prizes and light refreshments will<br />

mark the opening and closing of the “Walk.” Check out a<br />

video report of last year’s inaugural event here: https://m.<br />

sevendaysvt.com/vermont/walk-the-long-trail-at-berlin-mallsiv486/Content?oid=5173848<br />

The following businesses have stepped up to help underwrite<br />

this 4-month event: Walmart, Central Vermont Medical<br />

Center, Green Stripes Landscaping, Planet Fitness, Avonda<br />

Air, Casella, Passumpsic Savings Bank, Community National<br />

Bank, Land Strategies, Supercuts, and WDEV, and more<br />

sponsors are expected to support the “Walk.”<br />

The Long Trail (greenmountainclub.org/the-long-trail) is a<br />

free, rugged, primitive hiking trail along the high ridge of<br />

Vermont’s Green Mountains from Massachusetts to Quebec.<br />

Along its 272 miles, there are 5 peaks<br />

over 4,000 feet in elevation and 66<br />

rustic shelters for overnight<br />

camping.<br />

The Green Mountain<br />

Club (greenmountainclub.org)<br />

is celebrating<br />

over a century of heroic<br />

volunteers and<br />

great hikes on the<br />

Long Trail. The trail<br />

exists because the<br />

GMC and its 1,000+<br />

volunteers work hard<br />

to keep it going, and<br />

because members and<br />

donors provide support.<br />

The owners of the<br />

Berlin Mall have special<br />

plans for the mall—“Our<br />

vision is to create a vibrant town<br />

center where people of all ages live,<br />

work and play in a way that embraces community and celebrates<br />

life in Central Vermont,” said Michael Rushman,<br />

Director of Marketing and Strategic Planning. “Walk The<br />

Long Trail At Berlin Mall is a great example of how a town<br />

center concept brings people of all ages together, and is a<br />

glimpse of exciting things to come at Berlin Mall,” added<br />

Rushman.<br />

YOUR HEALTH | SELF IMPROVEMENT<br />

Resolutions for Women<br />

The beginning of each new year gives us the chance to form a fresh start and<br />

get on top of our health. Women can take advantage of this new beginning by<br />

changing behaviors that lead to common diseases and enhancing their overall lifestyle.<br />

COMMIT TO VISITING<br />

THE DOCTOR<br />

Many common health conditions<br />

found primarily in<br />

women can be treated if they<br />

are discovered early in the<br />

development stage. Consider<br />

your age and follow these<br />

guidelines set by the American<br />

Cancer Society.<br />

• Breast cancer: Women<br />

ages 40 to 44 may begin an<br />

annual breast cancer screening<br />

with mammograms if they<br />

choose. Ages 45 to 54 should<br />

follow a strict annual mammogram<br />

screening. Those 55 and<br />

older can safely switch to<br />

breast exams every other year.<br />

• Cervical cancer: From age<br />

21 to 29, women should have a<br />

Pap test every three years;<br />

women 20 to 65 years old<br />

every five years. Women over<br />

65 years should discontinue<br />

testing.<br />

RETHINK HOW YOU EAT<br />

Resolving to lose weight this<br />

year will provide you with<br />

many health benefits. A<br />

healthy weight lowers the risks<br />

of cardiovascular disease, highblood<br />

pressure and diabetes.<br />

Consider scheduling an<br />

appointment with a nutritionist<br />

in your area to creating a<br />

diet filled with fat-killing foods<br />

such as leafy greens, lean proteins<br />

and plenty of water.<br />

GET PHYSICAL<br />

The Centers for Disease<br />

Control and Prevention state<br />

that physical activity doesn’t<br />

need to be strenuous to<br />

achieve health benefits. In fact,<br />

women of all ages gain an<br />

advantage by committing 15 to<br />

20 minutes of moderate activity<br />

into their daily routine.<br />

Keep in mind, if you already<br />

suffer from chronic health<br />

problems, such as heart disease,<br />

diabetes or obesity,<br />

check with your doctor before<br />

beginning a new physical<br />

activity program.<br />

LIMIT ALCOHOL INTAKE<br />

Women are much more<br />

susceptible to health problems<br />

brought on by alcohol<br />

than men. The National<br />

Institute on Alcohol Abuse<br />

and Alcoholism states this is<br />

due to women typically<br />

weighing less and retaining<br />

less water in their bodies.<br />

Here are some of the risks<br />

women face from alcohol<br />

abuse:<br />

• Women who drink are<br />

© ADOBE STOCK<br />

more likely to develop liver<br />

inflammation;<br />

• Women are more at risk<br />

for alcohol-related heart disease;<br />

and<br />

• Women who have one<br />

drink per day have an<br />

increased chance of developing<br />

breast cancer than women<br />

who do not drink at all.<br />

YOUR HEALTH | OCCUPATIONAL SAFETY<br />

Working in Winter Weather<br />

Those who make their livings outdoors know that their careers don’t take a break just because it’s cold.<br />

According to the Occupational Safety and Health Administration, men account for 91 percent of the<br />

construction industry. This means they are at a much higher risk for serious health hazards during the cold.<br />

This statistic reported by<br />

OSHA includes workers such as<br />

laborers, electricians and<br />

plumbers. These positions are<br />

crucial to Americans who need<br />

assistance when pipes freeze or<br />

a furnace suffers from an electrical<br />

problem.<br />

If you are in a field that<br />

requires you to travel outdoors<br />

year-round, are you taking<br />

proper measures to stay safe?<br />

ARRIVE SAFELY<br />

On-the-job safety begins<br />

before you arrive at the<br />

worksite. Be sure to take proper<br />

precautions depending on road<br />

conditions before your commute<br />

to work.<br />

Keep an eye on your local<br />

weather forecasts and leave<br />

early to allow time to drive<br />

slowly if ice or snow is present.<br />

OSHA also recommends<br />

having important vehicle components<br />

inspected before the<br />

cold arrives. Here are a few of<br />

its suggestions:<br />

• Brakes: Inspect the level of<br />

your brake fluid and the integrity<br />

of the braking system’s<br />

components, such as, pads,<br />

rotors, calipers and hoses.<br />

• Electrical system: Always<br />

have your battery checked<br />

before winter, as cold weather<br />

will expose any faults, possibly<br />

leaving you stranded. Also have<br />

an expert test the starter and<br />

alternator to ensure they work<br />

properly.<br />

• Tires: Driving on tires with<br />

poor tread depth is dangerous,<br />

especially on ice and snow.<br />

Make sure tread is at the recommended<br />

levels or replace<br />

them.<br />

DRESS FOR THE JOB<br />

While working in frigid temperatures,<br />

it’s important to<br />

dress in at least three layers of<br />

loose-fitting clothing. OSHA<br />

says an inner layer of wool will<br />

be efficient in holding body<br />

heat, a middle layer of wool<br />

provides insulation when wet,<br />

and an outer wind-repelling<br />

layer allows ventilation.<br />

Make sure all exposed skin is<br />

covered when dealing with<br />

temperatures that promote<br />

frostbite. Hats, knit masks,<br />

insulated gloves and waterproof<br />

boots are all necessary.<br />

MORE SAFETY TIPS<br />

For those working with<br />

restoring electricity that has<br />

been knocked out from ice or<br />

snow, always be aware of your<br />

© ADOBE STOCK<br />

surroundings. When working in<br />

snow, the moisture can reduce<br />

the insulation integrity of protective<br />

equipment.<br />

Watch your step. Slips and<br />

falls are common occurrences<br />

when working outdoors. Take<br />

caution when working around<br />

ice, and always wear proper<br />

footwear.<br />

JANUARY IS NATIONAL HOBBY MONTH<br />

How to find a hobby<br />

Commitments to work and family<br />

can make adults feel like they<br />

have little time for much else. But<br />

finding time to pursue hobbies can<br />

benefit men and women in various ways.<br />

A form of escapism that can provide a much-needed<br />

respite from the hectic pace of daily life, hobbies can help<br />

men and women reduce stress by forcing them to focus on<br />

something other than the source of their stress. In addition,<br />

hobbies can be a great way to meet new people, an important<br />

benefit for working parents who may otherwise find it difficult<br />

to meet new people.<br />

Finding a hobby may take some trial and error, as adults<br />

may find activities that once appealed to them no longer do,<br />

while other pursuits may require more time than men and<br />

women can reasonably devote. Adults looking for a hobby<br />

can consider the following strategies as they begin their<br />

pursuits.<br />

• Think back to childhood. A childhood passion may provide<br />

the perfect starting point as adults look for hobbies. For example,<br />

adults who enjoyed painting as children may find they<br />

still know their way around a canvas and palette.<br />

• Ask around. Adults who want to find a hobby to foster<br />

social connections can ask friends, family, neighbors, or<br />

coworkers to recommend activities. This can help men and<br />

women make connections in their communities and/or reconnect<br />

with friends or family members with whom they have<br />

fallen out of touch.<br />

• Think small. Because there is often some trial and error in much time or money.<br />

finding a rewarding hobby, it makes sense to avoid making<br />

too big a commitment right off the bat. Before buying lots<br />

of expensive equipment or materials or making a large time<br />

commitment, give yourself some time to try a hobby on for<br />

size. The first activity you try might not necessarily take, and<br />

walking away won’t sting as much if you had not committed<br />

Helping kids find hobbies<br />

Much like adults can benefit from<br />

participating in hobbies, children can<br />

reap rewards from engaging in hobbies.<br />

According to the Child Development<br />

Institute, hobbies give children a chance<br />

to express themselves. The CDI also notes that<br />

hobbies can play an important role in children’s<br />

self-discovery and boost their self-esteem.<br />

Some children may discover hobbies on their own, requiring<br />

little if any assistance on the part of their parents. For<br />

example, some kids may display an interest in music that<br />

parents, even those with no such musical inclination, can<br />

foster by purchasing certain instruments. But some children<br />

may need a little more prompting, and parents of such boys<br />

and girls can take certain steps to help their youngsters find<br />

rewarding hobbies.<br />

• Involve kids in your own hobbies. Kids look up to their<br />

parents and often want to emulate what their mothers and<br />

fathers do. If possible, involve children in your own hobbies.<br />

Gardeners can teach their youngsters how to grow and tend<br />

to a garden, while painters can host family painting nights<br />

where everyone is encouraged to create their own masterpiece.<br />

Parents whose hobbies are more adult-oriented, like<br />

woodworking, can still involve their children. For example,<br />

work with children to design a new item, then show them<br />

how the item goes from paper to finished product; just avoid<br />

allowing them to use any unsafe tools or machines.<br />

• Let kids choose an activity. While some children might take<br />

to hobbies their parents favor, others might need to be given<br />

some freedom to find their own activities. Afford youngsters<br />

this chance, recognizing that it might take some time before<br />

kids find an activity that genuinely sparks their passion.<br />

• Be a source of encouragement. Some hobbies may prove<br />

more difficult than kids first imagined, requiring some perseverance<br />

before they can be enjoyed fully. In such instances,<br />

observe youngsters while they engage in the activity. If<br />

they appear to be enjoying themselves but are periodically<br />

frustrated, encourage them to keep trying. If kids appear to<br />

be disinterested in overcoming any struggles, then they might<br />

benefit by pursuing another hobby.<br />

• Don’t hesitate to focus on fun. Hobbies can teach kids<br />

valuable lessons and provide a sense of fulfillment, but it’s<br />

important that parents not overlook the importance of fun<br />

in regard to their children’s hobbies. Hobbies can provide<br />

children with the same respite from busy schedules that they<br />

do adults, and that break should be as fun as possible.<br />

page 16 The WORLD January <strong>10</strong>, 2<strong>01</strong>8<br />

• Consider coaching or mentoring. Athletes who still have a<br />

passion for their favorite sports but can no longer meet the<br />

physical demands such sports require can stay involved by<br />

coaching youth sports. The same can be said for professionals<br />

passionate about their work who choose to mentor. These<br />

activities might not be traditional hobbies, but they offer a<br />

great way for adults to pursue their passions on their own<br />

time.<br />

Hobbies can enrich our lives and provide respites from<br />

the daily grind. Finding a hobby that fits might take some<br />

time and some trial and error, but such efforts will ultimately<br />

prove worth it if adults find activities they are passionate<br />

about.<br />

YOUR HEALTH | DIET & EXERCISE<br />

Weighing in on exercise vs. dieting for better weight loss results<br />

Statistics indicate more and more men,<br />

women and children are overweight<br />

or obese. The National Institutes of<br />

Health state that more than 35 percent<br />

of adults in the United States are obese<br />

and more than 34 percent are overweight,<br />

while 17 percent of children and adolescents<br />

in the United States are obese. Obesity rates<br />

are three times as high among today’s children<br />

than they were among youngsters just<br />

one generation ago.<br />

As individuals attempt to lose weight, they may wonder<br />

what is the most effective way to accomplish that objective.<br />

Some argue that the secret to weight loss is lots of exercise,<br />

while others insist that calorie control is the key. When it<br />

comes to slimming down, some may be surprised by what the<br />

experts have to say.<br />

The Mayo Clinic advises that cutting calories through<br />

dietary changes appears to promote weight loss more effectively<br />

than physical exercise alone. According to Shawn M.<br />

Talbott, Ph.D., a nutritional biochemist and former director of<br />

the University of Utah Nutrition Clinic, weight loss is about<br />

75 percent diet and 25 percent exercise. People generally see<br />

the largest short-term results when they eat healthy foods and<br />

healthy portions.<br />

Poor diets can be difficult to overcome, as it takes a lot of<br />

exercise to spur dramatic weight loss, whereas a low-calorie,<br />

healthy diet can be a simple and effective means to losing<br />

weight. Nutritionists often point to a balanced diet that focuses<br />

on fruits and vegetables, lean proteins and whole-grain<br />

carbohydrates over fad diets or ones that require the adherence<br />

to strict guidelines that are difficult to follow for lengthy<br />

periods of time.<br />

But exercise should not be abandoned in favor of a lowcalorie<br />

diet. Dr. Yoni Freedhoff, who runs one of the largest<br />

obesity clinics in Canada, says that weight loss occurs from<br />

what’s created in the kitchen, but health is gained in the gym.<br />

Dr. Freedhoff often advises his clients to make smart changes<br />

to the foods they eat to spur weight loss, and then incorporate<br />

exercise into their lifestyles as a way to keep the body in<br />

top form. Regular physical exercise is necessary to maintain<br />

strong bones, build muscle, improve flexibility, and keep<br />

the cardiovascular system working efficiently. Exercise also<br />

releases endorphins, which can improve mental alertness and<br />

feelings of well-being.<br />

The Mayo Clinic notes that studies have shown that people<br />

who lose weight and keep it off over the long haul are those<br />

who get regular physical activity.<br />

When it comes to losing weight, the foods a person eats<br />

play a bigger role than exercise. But it is the combination of<br />

both diet and exercise that can lead to greater overall health<br />

and sustained weight loss.<br />

4 foods that can boost energy levels<br />

Diet can go a long way toward increasing or lowering energy<br />

levels. No one wants to consume foods that will make<br />

it harder for them to get through the day, so the following<br />

are a handful of foods that pack an energetic punch.<br />

1. Cashews: Cashews, which are high in<br />

magnesium, help to convert sugar into<br />

energy. Magnesium deficiency can lead to<br />

low energy levels, so nuts that are high in<br />

magnesium, including cashews, can provide<br />

that mid-afternoon jolt that some people are<br />

seeking. Cashews are high in calories, so<br />

it’s best for those looking to lose weight or<br />

maintain healthy weights to adhere to serving<br />

suggestion guidelines.<br />

2. Skinless chicken: A study from researcher<br />

Judith Wurtman of the Massachusetts Institute<br />

of Technology Clinical Research Center<br />

found that alertness tends to increase when<br />

the brain produces the neurotransmitter<br />

dopamine and the hormone norepinephrine.<br />

Skinless chicken contains an amino acid<br />

known as tyrosine that helps in the production<br />

of both dopamine and norepinephrine. If<br />

skinless chicken is not available, other foods<br />

that may provide this same effect include<br />

fish, lean beef and eggs. In addition, lean<br />

meats like skinless chicken contain enough<br />

vitamin B to help ease insomnia.<br />

3. Salmon: Omega-3 fatty acids can help<br />

the body fight inflammation, which has<br />

been linked to a host of ailments, including<br />

chronic fatigue. Salmon is also high in<br />

protein, which can eliminate the mid- to<br />

late-afternoon hunger pangs that can derail<br />

healthy diets and contribute to weight gain.<br />

4. Beans: Beans are loaded with fiber, and<br />

that’s a good thing for energy levels. Like<br />

magnesium, which can also be found in<br />

beans, fiber takes awhile to digest, extending<br />

the energy-boosting properties of foods<br />

loaded with fiber. In spite of the growing<br />

movement to eat and live healthier, many<br />

adults still do not include enough fiber in<br />

their diets. Men and women can consult<br />

with their physicians to determine how to<br />

make that happen, but eating more beans is<br />

a good start.<br />

YOUR HEALTH | BY THE NUMBERS<br />

Deadly<br />

Heart<br />

Disease<br />

A<br />

ccording to the American Heart<br />

Association, about 70,000 people in<br />

the US have heart attacks each year,<br />

ultimately killing about 114,000 of those<br />

affected. Cardiovascular disease is<br />

prevalent in both genders as it is the<br />

leading cause of death in men and women.<br />

February is Heart Health<br />

Month. You can show support by<br />

wearing red on National Wear<br />

Red Day to raise awareness of<br />

the very serious condition. Heart<br />

attacks and strokes are considered<br />

risks from cardiovascular<br />

disease.<br />

These alarming facts from the<br />

American Heart Association are<br />

meant to inspire you to become<br />

serious about heart health for<br />

you and your loved ones:<br />

• Cardiovascular disease<br />

claims more lives than all forms<br />

of all cancers and chronic lower<br />

respiratory disease combined.<br />

• Nearly half of all African-<br />

American adults have some<br />

form of cardiovascular disease.<br />

• Approximately every 40 seconds,<br />

an American will have a<br />

heart attack.<br />

• The average age for the first<br />

heart attack in men is 65 years<br />

old; it is 71 years in women.<br />

• Strokes are the leading cause<br />

of serious long-term disability in<br />

the United States.<br />

• Between 2<strong>01</strong>3 and 2030,<br />

medical costs of coronary heart<br />

disease were expected to<br />

increase by about <strong>10</strong>0 percent.<br />

The cost during 2<strong>01</strong>2 and 2<strong>01</strong>3<br />

was $199.6 billion.<br />

• Stroke accounts for 1 of<br />

every 20 deaths in the United<br />

States. A stroke kills someone in<br />

American about every 4 minutes.<br />

• About 85.7 million American<br />

adults have high-blood pressure.<br />

This is a contributing factor to<br />

cardiovascular disease.<br />

• Nearly half of those with<br />

high-blood pressure do not have<br />

it under control.<br />

• Coronary heart disease<br />

accounts for over one in seven<br />

deaths in the U.S., or about<br />

360,000 people annually.<br />

• About 92.1 million American<br />

adults are living with some form<br />

of cardiovascular disease or the<br />

after-effects of stroke.<br />

Make this year about getting<br />

on top of your heart health and<br />

not becoming a statistic. Consult<br />

with your doctor if you think<br />

your heart is at risk.<br />

YOUR HEALTH | MEN’S HEALTH<br />

Prostate cancer is<br />

the second most<br />

common cancer to<br />

affect American men<br />

but is oftentimes<br />

manageable with<br />

treatment. Catching<br />

it early is key.<br />

This is achieved by knowing<br />

the signs and symptoms, and<br />

following proper screening<br />

guidelines.<br />

According to the Prostate<br />

Cancer Foundation, there is<br />

no set age for men to begin<br />

screening. This is largely due<br />

to the disease occurring<br />

because of lifestyle and family<br />

history. Based on these factors,<br />

your personal doctor will<br />

be able to suggest a recommended<br />

timeframe for when<br />

and how often you should be<br />

screened.<br />

Prostate Cancer Risk<br />

WHAT IS PROSTATE<br />

CANCER?<br />

Prostate cancer begins<br />

when cells in prostate glands<br />

begin growing uncontrollably.<br />

These glands are only found<br />

in men, below the bladder<br />

and in front of the rectum.<br />

The most common type of<br />

prostate cancer is adenocarcinomas,<br />

which develop from<br />

the gland cells. In rare cases,<br />

it can grow and spread quickly,<br />

but more commonly it is a<br />

slow mover. This gives men a<br />

great advantage in discovering<br />

and correcting the disease.<br />

SYMPTOMS<br />

Besides being screened, you<br />

can pay attention to these<br />

symptoms laid out by the<br />

PCF:<br />

• Frequent urination, especially<br />

at night;<br />

• Weak, dribbling or holding<br />

back urination;<br />

• Painful urination or pain<br />

in the lower back, hips, pelvis<br />

or thighs; and<br />

• Blood in the urine.<br />

If you notice any of these<br />

symptoms, speak with your<br />

doctor immediately.<br />

WHAT HAPPENS<br />

AT THE SCREENING?<br />

There are two common<br />

procedures used by professionals<br />

to discover signs of<br />

prostate cancer. The Centers<br />

for Disease Control and<br />

Prevention breaks down how<br />

they are accomplished.<br />

Digital rectal exam: Your<br />

doctor inserts a gloved finger<br />

into the rectum to gain access<br />

to the prostate and feel for<br />

lumps or abnormalities.<br />

Prostate Specific Antigen<br />

(PSA) test: This is administered<br />

to monitor the levels of<br />

PSA in a person’s blood. PSA<br />

is a substance made by the<br />

prostate, and high levels in<br />

the blood can mean there is<br />

an issue with the prostate,<br />

including cancer.<br />

© ADOBE STOCK<br />

TREATMENT<br />

The type of treatment your<br />

doctor chooses for a fight<br />

against prostate cancer<br />

depends on the stage of cancer,<br />

the patient’s age, the likelihood<br />

that treatment will<br />

provide a cure and how the<br />

patient feels about the side<br />

effects.<br />

Much like other cancer<br />

treatments, the options may<br />

include radiation, chemotherapy,<br />

hormone therapy or even<br />

surgery.<br />

Talk with your doctor this<br />

winter about your concern of<br />

developing prostate cancer,<br />

especially if someone in your<br />

family has been affected.<br />

the 12th of last month, colder<br />

arctic air spilled into the<br />

region now and then with<br />

the coldest reading reaching<br />

a frigid 11 below. This first<br />

shot of cold arctic air did<br />

not last with more or less<br />

moderation ahead of the<br />

Christmas Holidays but the<br />

back and forth in temperatures<br />

after Christmas Day<br />

took a significant plunge to<br />

well below normal on the<br />

28th, 29th,30th and 31st.<br />

This Arctic outbreak was<br />

very significant not occurring<br />

to these levels in many<br />

years.<br />

Precipitation ended up<br />

being below normal for the<br />

month with melted precip at<br />

2.29 or about 83% of average. Snowfall really<br />

the biggest storm of December occurred within<br />

a window that is of a climatological high give or<br />

take 3 days around the <strong>10</strong>th of December. This<br />

occurred on the 12th with the most significant<br />

snowfall taking shape. Windiest day was on the<br />

end of the month with strong gusty northwesterly<br />

winds and severe wind chills.<br />

December of 2<strong>01</strong>7 will be remembered for<br />

the start of a significant arctic outbreak that<br />

lasted into early January.<br />

With one of the more premier cold snaps on<br />

record to start January 2<strong>01</strong>8, its worthy to note<br />

this particular cold snap was regional in scale to<br />

eastern and northern North America. For a short<br />

period of time, nearly all of the lower 48 United<br />

States saw temperature below freezing at one<br />

Ron Fox Kelly Massicotte Heidi Groff Pat Biggam<br />

point. But the culprit was largely due to big<br />

blocking higher pressure over the Ural mountains<br />

extending north. This in turn drove a flow<br />

of air right smack dab from those high latitudes<br />

and arctic region, deep into the American south.<br />

While we shivered in the deep freeze in the<br />

Northeast U.S. and adjacent Canada it was<br />

warmer in places like central and western<br />

Siberia, A goodly portion of the arctic sea, and<br />

most especially the rest of the northern hemisphere<br />

including Europe. Only Greenland was<br />

equivalent or colder.<br />

Atmospheric Carbon Dioxide (CO2)…<br />

Late November measurement for Carbon<br />

Dioxide CO2 was 406.75 ppm as measured at<br />

the Mauna Loa Observatory. Highest-ever daily<br />

average CO2 at Mauna Loa Observatory 412.63<br />

ppm back on April 26th, 2<strong>01</strong>7. Expect this<br />

chemistry measurement of the atmosphere to<br />

continue to skyrocket in the northern hemisphere<br />

winter into March and April likely setting<br />

new records.<br />

Normal or reasonable CO2 for a stable optimum<br />

climate is 350.0 parts per million but most<br />

of the Holocene era when civilization evolved<br />

and the climate was stable between interglacial<br />

periods had carbon dioxide measurements at<br />

280 parts per million. Those days are long<br />

gone.<br />

2<strong>01</strong>7 Second Hottest year of Record Globally<br />

Even with a La Nina...<br />

Last year was the second-hottest year on<br />

record according to Nasa data, and was the hottest<br />

year without the short-term warming influence<br />

of an El Niño event: 2<strong>01</strong>7 was the hottest<br />

year without an El Niño by a wide margin – a<br />

whopping 0.17°C hotter than 2<strong>01</strong>4, which previously<br />

held that record. Remarkably, 2<strong>01</strong>7 was<br />

also hotter than 2<strong>01</strong>5, which at the time was by<br />

far the hottest year on record thanks in<br />

part to a strong El Niño event that year.<br />

For comparison, the neutral El Niño<br />

conditions and the level of solar activity<br />

in 1972 were quite similar to those in<br />

2<strong>01</strong>7. 45 years later, the latter was 0.9°C<br />

hotter than the former. For each type of<br />

year – La Niña, El Niño, and neutral –<br />

the global surface warming trend<br />

between 1964 and 2<strong>01</strong>7 is 0.17–0.<strong>18</strong>°C<br />

per decade, which is consistent with<br />

climate model predictions and no surprise.<br />

That’s now happened, and as a result we’re seeing<br />

unleashed global warming causing record<br />

temperatures year after year. Temperatures have<br />

in fact risen so quickly, it appears to have taken<br />

just a few years.<br />

President Trump began the process of withdrawing<br />

the US from the Paris Climate<br />

Agreement in 2<strong>01</strong>7, leaving America as the only<br />

country in the world denying the urgent need to<br />

address global warming. Fortunately, every<br />

other nation is taking action to mitigate this<br />

existential threat, but there’s a shocking gap<br />

between reality and the ‘fake news’ beliefs of<br />

arguably the most powerful man in the world.<br />

America was also battered by climate-fueled<br />

extreme weather events in 2<strong>01</strong>7. Research has<br />

already shown that global warming boosted<br />

Hurricane Harvey’s record rainfall (and associated<br />

flooding) by about 38%. California’s record<br />

wildfire season was similarly fueled by the<br />

state’s hot summer. The southwestern states<br />

were cooked by record hot summer temperatures<br />

this year, and global warming is making<br />

droughts in America and Europe worse,.<br />

America was hit by 15-billion weather and climate<br />

disasters in 2<strong>01</strong>7, and it will likely be the<br />

costliest such year on record once all of the hurricane<br />

damages are tallied.<br />

These extreme weather events are expensive,<br />

and they’re a mere taste of what’s to come.<br />

Until we manage to cut global carbon pollution,<br />

temperatures will continue to rise and climate<br />

change consequences will become more severe.<br />

While it broke many of today’s records, 2<strong>01</strong>7 is<br />

just a taste of the future.<br />

Vermont Weather Trends – January...<br />

There was plenty of low confidence in longer<br />

range forecasting now that we will warm significantly.<br />

January was projected to be much<br />

warmer than normal, but there are loads contradictions<br />

in this warmer forecast. Much like<br />

December, initially some of the details were at<br />

odds to other mechanisms that might bring<br />

sharply colder weather – but nowhere the<br />

extreme of what we have experience late<br />

December and the first week of January.<br />

Best bet – No promises Forecast: Cooler than<br />

normal weather returns roughly mid month<br />

around the 15th but this is followed by much<br />

above normal temperatures with cold pretty<br />

much a thing of the past the overall warmth will<br />

oscillate with cooler periods with a storm track<br />

largely in Canada (not very January-like) and<br />

warmth lasting well into the end of the month.<br />

This is out of step with a more colder backloaded<br />

winter forecast. There are interesting<br />

things happening in the arctic that plays havoc<br />

with longer term projections. February should<br />

go back the other way to some degree that be<br />

colder than normal.<br />

DEUCE<br />

Deuce is looking for a human companion<br />

who can keep him company at home,<br />

and take him for walks. He enjoys car<br />

rides, helping his human with chores<br />

around the house, and to cuddle in the<br />

evening. Since being alone at home<br />

isn't his favorite thing, he would prefer<br />

a companion who works from home or<br />

is retired, but still active. He has lived in<br />

a home with children, and has met other<br />

dogs and cats in his previous home, and<br />

they reported he liked their company.<br />

Cat Relationship Is<br />

All About Compromise<br />

DEAR PAW’S CORNER:<br />

Why do cats do what they<br />

do? Why do they tear ornaments<br />

off the Christmas<br />

tree, knock glasses off the<br />

coffee table, attack our<br />

shoelaces and knead their<br />

claws into our sweater? Is<br />

there any way to get mine<br />

to stop doing, like, all of<br />

these things? Sign me<br />

-- Frayed Sweater, and Nerves, in Toronto<br />

DEAR FRAYED: After years and years of studying this<br />

conundrum, I can honestly say most cats won’t respond to<br />

pleas, begging or even treats. Well, sometimes they’ll<br />

respond to treats. But they’ll go right back to doing what<br />

they enjoy most: destroying all that you love.<br />

I’m being (slightly) sarcastic, of course.<br />

Having a cat means making a few compromises in your<br />

life, particularly in the interior-decorating department. It<br />

means being more careful about setting expensive glassware<br />

on the countertop. It means a Christmas tree whose<br />

bottom third remains undecorated, or adorned with<br />

unbreakable, pet-safe ornaments. It means patiently retying<br />

your shoelaces after your cat has pounced on them. It<br />

means buying a new sweater every fall, or keeping your<br />

favorite ones in a drawer to wear on special occasions<br />

only.<br />

The tradeoff, however, is that you have a companion for<br />

many happy years. A cat kneading his or her claws on your<br />

sweater while curled up in your lap is an expression of<br />

contentment, an acknowledgment that you’re family. You<br />

don’t have to give up all the breakable things that you love<br />

in order to live with your cat, you just need to make a few<br />

concessions to keep both your cat and your glassware<br />

safe.<br />

ERASE BAD CREDIT FOR-<br />

EVER!<br />

Credit repair companies make<br />

false claims and promises to<br />

erase a trail of unpaid bills<br />

or late payments from your<br />

credit report. However, only<br />

time can erase negative, but<br />

accurate credit information.<br />

Cleaning Bird Feeders and Other January<br />

Gardening Tips<br />

Cleaning bird feeders, growing<br />

Swedish ivy, and brushing snow<br />

from shrubs are some of the gardening<br />

activities for this month.<br />

By Leonard Perry, UVM Horticulturist and Charlie<br />

Nardozzi, Garden Consultant<br />

Birds deserve clean food surfaces as much as we do. Every<br />

few weeks bring the feeders inside and wash them with soap<br />

and water into which a little bleach has been added (1 part<br />

bleach to 9 parts water). Rinse thoroughly. If you have a<br />

heated bird bath, keep it scrubbed and cleaned regularly as<br />

well. I keep an old brush just for this purpose, whenever I<br />

refill the bath.<br />

When tree and shrub branches bend under the weight of a<br />

new snowfall, use a broom to gently brush off the snow. Don’t<br />

try to remove ice or you might break the branch. It’s possible<br />

to save a branch that partially splits from the main trunk if you<br />

tie it in place and use long screws (coming from each direction,<br />

if necessary) to secure it. If done right away, the tree may<br />

callous over the wound and heal itself next season, and not<br />

split further.<br />

Peperomia are highly decorative houseplants that are easy<br />

to grow, members of the pepper family as you might guess<br />

from the name. Give them bright indirect light, don’t overwater,<br />

and don’t let them get much below 60 degrees (F) for best<br />

growth. The blunt-leaved species is upright, and has rounded<br />

thick, waxy leaves on thick stems. Emerald ripple has dark<br />

green, rippled leaf surfaces and makes a mounded habit.<br />

Watermelon peperomia has silvery white stripes, similar to a<br />

watermelon rind. There are variations you may find on each<br />

of these three main species.<br />

If you received a poinsettia or cyclamen as a holiday gift,<br />

keep it blooming by providing proper care. Poinsettias need<br />

good drainage, so if the pot is still wrapped in foil, make sure<br />

there is a hole in the bottom so water drains out. Of course if<br />

it’s on furniture, place a saucer underneath to protect the finish.<br />

Keep poinsettias away from drafts, such as near doors or<br />

windows or hot woodstoves. Keep soil moist, but don’t overwater.<br />

Keep in bright light.<br />

BRAND NEW, SINGLE LEVEL HOME<br />

IN BARRE TOWN<br />

Energy efficient 3 bedroom, , 2 bathroom home with attached 2 car<br />

garage and full basement to be placed on Lisa Drive in Barre Town.<br />

Fully customizable to suit your needs!<br />

The latter applies, also, to cyclamen which can last for<br />

weeks if kept cool (65 to 68 degrees F in day, less at night).<br />

Too high temperatures, too little water or overwatering, or too<br />

low light may cause leaves to yellow and drop.<br />

When deicing walks, use one of the granular products with<br />

a “chloride” other than sodium component—these are safer on<br />

plants. They may cost a bit more, but you often can use less.<br />

Calcium chloride works best in the coldest areas (down to<br />

about 5 degrees F). If below this temperature, don’t use any<br />

chemical product but rather sand for traction. Liquid products<br />

don’t track into buildings as granular ones often do. Apply<br />

any material before ice and snow, if possible, for best results.<br />

While snow makes a good protective cover for plants, if<br />

you use salt to melt ice on driveways or walks, be careful not<br />

to pile snow from these areas on your plants or where melting<br />

snow will drain onto them.<br />

Otherwise, once snow melts<br />

in spring, flush soil thoroughly<br />

with water to help dilute or<br />

wash away any salt residue.<br />

Other gardening activities<br />

for this month include ordering<br />

seeds and plants from<br />

catalogs, reviewing garden<br />

notes from this past year<br />

while planning for this coming<br />

season, and signing up for<br />

a garden tour or spring garden<br />

symposium such as in<br />

April at Fort Ticonderoga<br />

(www.fortticonderoga.org/<br />
