Vermont Requests Federal Disaster
Declaration for October 31 Storm
Governor Phil Scott has requested a Major
Disaster Declaration for two federal programs
for storm damages throughout
Vermont caused by wind, rain and flooding
from October 31 – November 1, 2019. The
request is for assistance from the Public
Assistance program, which seeks support for
municipal infrastructure repairs, and the
Individual Assistance program, which seeks
aid for private homeowners and renters.
Public Assistance
Vermont officials have identified more
than $5 million in damages to public infrastructure
statewide, and the Federal
Emergency Management Agency (FEMA)
has verified that Vermont has proven more
than the minimum $1 million in damages to
qualify for a Public Assistance declaration.
Communities in Addison, Chittenden,
Essex, Franklin, Lamoille, Orange, Orleans
and Washington counties all showed losses
of $3.84 per capita and will be included in the
declaration request.
A Public Assistance disaster declaration
allows communities in declared counties to
receive 75% reimbursement from the federal
government for recovery costs associated
with the storm. Costs include repair work on
public roads and buildings, tree and debris
removal from public rights of way, municipal
employee time spent working on recovery,
contractor help, equipment rentals and other
storm-related expenses.
“This was a significant storm on a scale we
have not seen for some time and it left a
number of small towns with large bills for
recovery,” said Governor Scott. “The cost to
repair roads and other public infrastructure
will severely impact some municipal road
budgets so this federal assistance is critical to
our efforts.”
Individual Assistance
Governor Scott has also requested
Individual Assistance (IA) to help homeowners
and renters recover from the storm.
The request applies to private property in
Addison, Chittenden, Franklin, Lamoille
and Orleans counties.
The Individual Assistance program provides
financial aid or direct services to private
citizens who have been unable to mitigate
storm damages with other means. This
can include rental assistance for temporary
housing, grants to repair damage not covered
by insurance and needs like replacement
of personal property, vehicle repair,
storage or other approved expenses.
“There are several Vermonters facing economic
hardships because of this storm, and
as a state we are working to provide all possible
avenues of relief,” said Vermont
Emergency Management Director Erica
Bornemann. “Receiving an IA declaration is
not easy, there are many criteria to be considered
when assessing the state and individuals’
ability to recover.”
The goal of the Individual Assistance program
is to make essential living spaces safe,
sanitary and habitable. Insurance and other
available resources must be exhausted before
aid is awarded.
It can take several weeks for decisions to
be issued for disaster declaration requests. If
the Individual Assistance program request is
granted, additional FEMA on-site inspections
will take place with homeowners
affected by the storm.
Over 370 Vermonters have reported damage
to their properties to date. These include
damage to heating systems, floodwater and
debris in homes and basements, washed out
driveways and other damages. Vermonters
with damage from the storm can still call
2-1-1 to report losses.
FEMA will review the requests and make
a recommendation to President Trump who
will ultimately approve or deny the requests.
Governor Scott Announces the Launch of
State’s Electric Vehicle Incentive Program
• • •
The State of Vermont launched an incentive
program for the purchase or lease of new
plug-in electric vehicles (PEVs), which
include all-electric vehicles and plug in
hybrid electric vehicles, with a total of $1.1
million in funding to help Vermonters go
electric.
The incentives are available to individuals
with an annual household income of $92,000
or less applying for a new PEV with a base
price of $40,000 or less. More than 20 PEV
models are eligible with $1,500 incentives for
plug-in hybrid electric vehicles and $2,500
incentives for all-electric vehicles. Larger
incentives of $4,000 for plug-in hybrid electric
vehicles and $5,000 for all-electric vehicles
are available for individuals whose
households qualify for Vermont’s
Weatherization Program. The statewide
incentive may be used in combination with
additional PEV incentives offered by the
state’s electric utilities and federal tax credits
for greater savings.
This incentive program was proposed by
Governor Phil Scott and authorized by 2019
legislation intended to move Vermont
toward its goal of at least 50,000 electric
vehicles on its roads by 2025.
“We know the transportation sector
accounts for about 45% of the state’s greenhouse
gas emissions,” said Governor Scott.

JANUARY COUPONS
Vermont Sports Hall of Fame Chairman Barry Stone of South
Burlington (right) presents a $3,000 donation to Prevent Child
Abuse Vermont and its Executive Director Ed Bride of Barre (left).
The donation comes from proceeds from the annual VSHoF induction
dinner earlier this year.
Prevent Child Abuse Vermont
Receives $3,000 from Vermont
Sports Hall of Fame
The Vermont Sports Hall of Fame has presented a check
for $3,000 to Prevent Child Abuse Vermont to help support
its programs across the state.
The recent donation comes from the proceeds from the
annual Hall of Fame induction dinner and celebration in
South Burlington earlier this year.
The check presentation brings the total raised by the Hall
of Fame to about $19,000 since 2011 when PCAV was adopted
as the VSHoF’s designated charity.
Hall of Fame Chairman Barry Stone of South Burlington
presented the check to PCAV Deputy Director Ed Bride of
Barre during a recent meeting.
“Prevent Child Abuse really appreciates the strong support
it has received from the Vermont Sports Hall of Fame
through the years,” Bride said.
“It makes a big difference,” Bride said about the $19,000
donated by the Hall to PCAV.
He said Prevent Child Abuse Vermont serves more than
16,000 people annually throughout the 14 counties and noted
the donated dollars from the Hall all stay within the Green
Mountain state.
Stone, who heads the 15-member board, said the Hall has
witnessed the positive work PCAV has completed through
the years.
“The Hall of Fame is pleased to have PCAV as our signature
charity. PCAV does a lot of tremendous work for so
many people and families. We were able to make another
donation this year because of the success of the annual induction
banquet, which was sold out,” Stone said.
The Vermont Sports Hall of Fame was launched in October
2011 as a nonprofit organization to recognize individuals
whose achievements and efforts have enhanced sports, athletics
and recreation in the Green Mountain State. Besides
honoring those making significant contributions to the state’s
sports legacy, the Hall is designed to help promote and provide
inspiration in sports and recreation to the youth of
Vermont.
Nominations are accepted from the general public by filing
a form from the Hall’s website: www.vermontsportshall.com.
All nominations remain under consideration.
The Vermont Hall has inducted 87 honorees since the first
class in 2012. Voting is conducted by the VSHoF board of
directors, a statewide sports advisory panel and the previous
inductees.
The next Hall of Fame class will be inducted April 25, 2020
at the Delta Hotel by Marriott on Williston Road in South
Burlington. The review of nominations is underway and the
announcement of the selections is expected in January 2020.
Information on banquet tickets will be available shortly after.

Fame, log on to www.vermontsportshall.com. For more

Church of Montpelier, 130
Main Street, Montpelier.
Washington, D.C., pianist
Jeffrey Chappell returns for a
unique concert to perform
Modest Mussorgsky’s masterpiece
for solo piano.
For this multimedia concert,
students from
Montpelier’s Main Street
Middle School, East
Montpelier Elementary
School, Rumney Elementary
School in Middlesex, and Berlin Elementary
School have created artwork that will be projected
over the stage during the performances
of Modest Mussorgsky’s Pictures at an
Exhibition.
M.T. Anderson of Calais, a National Book
Award winner in Children’s Literature has
helped to guide the art students in their creation
process. He said, “Pictures at an
Exhibition is a piece of music that creates a
kind of virtual or invisible museum, showing
pictures that have long been lost. It is a
museum of music where the paintings can’t
be seen – until you draw them.” And so some
sixty students from across Central Vermont
have drawn them.
Their images will depict movements such
as Ballet of the Chicks in their Shells, The
Marketplace at Limoges, The Great Gate of
Kiev, and Catacombs. The student artists will

Vermonters in electric vehicles and help us
move forward on our clean transportation
and energy goals.”
Vermont’s Comprehensive Energy Plan
established a goal to increase the share of
renewable energy in the state’s transportation
sector to 10% by 2025 and 80% by 2050.
This translates to 50,000-60,000 PEVs registered
in Vermont in five years. Currently,
there are about 3,300 PEVs registered in
Vermont.
“It’s clear we have more work to do to
move the needle in this transition, and this
will be a continued area of focus for my
administration, with an approach that
ensures we’re not leaving our most vulnerable
Vermonters behind,” added Governor
Scott.

Electric Vehicle Incentive Program continued from page 2
with electric utilities, car dealers and
Vermont Energy Investment Corporation
(VEIC) to administer the program.
“This is truly a statewide collaborative
effort, with public, private and non-profit
entities working together toward the common
goal of transforming our transportation
sector,” said Transportation Secretary Joe
Flynn. “These incentives will put more
Vermonters behind the wheel of an electric
vehicle, thereby reducing the state’s greenhouse
gas emissions.”
The new program allows eligible customers
to receive the incentive directly from a
participating car dealer in the form of a
reduced purchase or lease price or receive a
direct cash reimbursement from the electric
utility that serves their household.
The state is working to secure participation
from auto dealers statewide who carry
qualifying models. Dealers offering point-of-
sale incentives as of
December 16, 2019 include:

rate as demonstrated in the 6-Month Outcomes Survey. The
college ranks first in the state for return on investment,
according to the Georgetown University Center on Education
and the Workforce First Try at ROI: Ranking 4,500 Colleges.
Among the 2019 class, 99% of employed graduates are working
in the field associated with their major.
The 2019 survey had the highest response rate of the past
five years with a 96% return. There were 524 respondents
among the 548 graduates. The categories are employed, continuing
education, unemployed, or not seeking work. Among
this class, the category break down is 67% employed, 32%
pursuing advanced degrees, .5% unemployed and .5% not
seeking work. In the last category, graduates are often studying
for licensure exams that delay their job search.
Nationally, the average placement rate for the most recent
comparable data is 85.7% for the Class of 2018, according to
the National Association of Colleges and Employers (NACE).
The national percentage of employed graduates is 63.5%,
continuing education is 19.2%, seeking work or education
(unemployed) is 14.1%, and not looking for work is 1.5%,
according to the same NACE study.
The results are part of a four-year trend among graduates
of Vermont Tech to achieve near complete placement in
careers and advanced education. The average rate over the
past four years is also 99%, starting with the 100% rate of the
Class of 2016. “Vermont Tech students work very hard to
gain the critical-thinking and practical skills that makes them
so desirable to employers,” says President Patricia Moulton
of the Class of 2019 success. “Employers in growing, technical
and health care sectors, often struggling with workforce
shortages in Vermont and nationally, would employ more
graduates if we had them to hire. It is clear Vermont Tech
launches careers for our students,” noted the president.
Results of the study by major are available on the college’s
website: https://www.vtc.edu/success-rate-2019.

New Artwork in the Library’s Cafe
“Energy and Flow” is the title of the new showing in the
Waterbury Library’s café and second floor by acrylic artists
Marcia Hill and Cindy Griffith. The artists’ use of vibrant
color and varying texture and brush stroke combine to make
representations of the elements of fire and water, to artistic
expressions of wild horses or a peacock.
Themes, like “Braided Rivers” are interspersed throughout
the showing, depicting the frozen rivers in winter to
spring thaw (Cindy Griffith) or Marcia Hill’s earth to sky
renderings. Ideas abound like dreaming or a dragon in flight.
About the artists: Award winning juried artist Marcia Hill,
has shown at the Waterbury Public Library previously with
her show a year ago, “Through the Seasons.” Of this show,
Hill stresses the bold color and metallic paint in the pieces,
appreciating the drama, movement, and excitement in the
finished paintings. “They are a tribute to the energy of life
itself: you can shape it, but you’re a not completely in charge
of it.” Hill is referring to the art of “pour painting” where the
end result often surprises. Though Hill makes plenty of artistic
decisions from color combinations to compositions, the
paint makes its own decisions too, “and therein lies the fun.
It’s like making art with your inner six-year-old,” says Hill.
“Pour painting is a collaboration with the materials rather
than just a use of them,” Hill explains.
Native Vermonter Cindy Griffith attributes her home state
of Vermont as the inspiration for her becoming an artist of
nature, as well as her father, artist Leon Griffith, whom she
credits for her respect and appreciation of both art and
nature. As an artist of nature and using magical-realism in her
representational art, Griffith enjoys amplifying colors and textures
to inform her artistic impression. Playing with light and
dark, warm and cool, while using a vibrant color palette shapes
her inspiration in representing nature’s various settings.
A long career in public service eventually gave way to
Griffith’s second career in art, having been juried throughout
the state of Vermont and neighboring New England
states. She also serves and has served on many a board,
gallery and society.
This show says Griffith, “is a huge departure from my usual
representational art.” While vacationing in Alaska, the braided
rivers that “meandered, split, gathered, changed and wandered
through the rough landscape” stuck with her, as did the blues
and greens of the water, ice and snow. “Braided Rivers” is the
primary theme of this show “Energy and Flow.” When Griffith
began experimenting with free-flowing acrylic paint, she discovered
the movement of those long-ago Alaskan rivers. As the
pieces progressed, she discovered the seasonal changes in the
rivers: the hard-frozen rivers of winter, spring break-up, and
finally the tundra of spring. She says, “In the end, this body of
work created itself.” It had been inside her all along, waiting for
a chance to express itself through her admiration of the
“breathtaking Alaskan landscape.”
On January 6 a questionnaire will be mailed to some
Vermont anglers asking for information about their fishing
activities, as well as their interests and opinions on fishing
and fisheries management in Vermont.
The survey is directed and funded by the Vermont Fish
and Wildlife Department and is being carried out under contract
by Responsive Management, a survey research firm
specializing in attitudes toward natural resource and outdoor
recreation issues. The survey will be mailed to 4,500 resident
and 900 nonresident anglers who have been randomly
selected from Vermont’s 2019 fishing license records.
The resulting information will be used to help inform the
Fish and Wildlife Department about general trends in angler
opinions and activities. Anglers’ identities will be kept confidential
and answers will never be associated with their
names.
“The information from the survey will be very important
in our efforts to manage Vermont’s diverse fisheries resources
to meet the desires of our angling community,” said Eric
Palmer, Fish and Wildlife’s director of fisheries. “This survey
will also compliment those conducted in 1991, 2000 and
2010, providing us with a good picture of trends in angler
activities and desires over the past 30 years.”
The questionnaire is an 8.5 x 5.5 inch light blue booklet
and includes 14 pages of questions. It will come in a white
envelope with “Vermont Angler Survey Enclosed” printed
on the front.
“While the questionnaire may seem a bit long, it is
divided into sections, so anglers will only need to fill out
those sections that reflect their fishing habits. If you don’t
fish for trout, you don’t fill out the trout section,” explained
Palmer. “While this is a voluntary survey, we encourage all
anglers who receive them to take the time to fill them out,
even if you do not fish very often. The more responses we
receive, the better the survey will reflect Vermont’s angling
community.”
If you receive a survey and have any questions, please contact
Fisheries Biologist Bret Ladago at (802) 485-7566 or

Race Conversations
Race Conversations, a group of dedicated members of the
community have been meeting on a monthly basis since the
spring of last year. All members of the community are invited
to join in the conversation of race. What is the meaning of
race? What is the impact of racism on our community?
Eventually and hopefully, the question will arise: what can
we do about it?
The group meets on Tuesday evenings from 6:30 to 7:30 in
the Waterbury Library’s SAL room. Winter/Spring dates are
as follows: January 21st , February 18th , March 17th , and
April 21st.
Facilitated by Educator, Life LeGeros, the group is currently
reading Ijeoma Oluo’s book, “So you want to talk
about race?” The book is available through the library’s interlibrary
loan and at Bridgeside Books at a 15% discount. Call

Knitted Art: Upending Expectations
Artists have used knitting to make serious art since the first
abstract wall panels of the 1960s. They pushed boundaries
with monumental sculptures in the 1980s. Knitted art challenges
gender stereotypes, conceptions of domesticity, and
mass consumerism. See how today’s knit artists combine
yarn and humor to explore people, climate change, and society
in this illustrated talk by Eve Jacobs-Carnahan at the
Waterbury Library on Wednesday, January 22nd from 6:30-8
pm.
Eve Jacobs-Carnahan makes mixed media knitted sculpture.
Her knitted art has won national and regional awards
and is included in Lela Nargi’s survey of knitted art,
Astounding Knits! 101 Spectacular Knitted Creations and
Daring Feats (Voyageur Press 2011). She is an active blogger
and shares her enthusiasm for knitted arts in talks. To sample

Mary Helen (Gibson) Cerutti
MONTPELIER, VT -
Mary Helen (Gibson)
Cerutti, age 57, lost her long battle
with cancer on the evening of
December 20th, surrounded by her
family and countless friends who
loved her quick intelligence, selflessness,
and unfailing sense of
humor.
Mary was born in Brattleboro
Vermont, the middle child of Justice Ernest W. Gibson
III and Charlotte Hungerford Gibson. Mary graduated
from Montpelier High School in 1980 and received
her Bachelor degree in Education from the University
of Vermont in 1984. She then joined the Army and
served two stints of active duty stationed in Germany
in the mid-eighties, and then in Kuwait in 2004. She
retired from military service after 20 years in the
Army, Army Reserves, and National Guard here in
Vermont.
At UVM, Mary developed an interest in early childhood
education and was employed as an educator,
early on in Utah and most recently in Northfield, VT.
She was a life-long learner and loved sharing her joy of
learning with her students.
Mary loved performing music and theater both during
her military service overseas and locally. She was
a member of many local singing groups including the
Barre-Tones, Rock City, Alive! With Song (which she
named), and the Christ Church Episcopal choir.
While participating in a production of the Mikado at
Unadilla Theater, Mary met her husband Charlie
Cerutti. They were married at Christ Church in
Montpelier in 1995.
Those who knew her well know that she had a way
with words and loved long and prolific correspondence
and communication with family, friends, and
anyone who would listen. She freely allowed her silliness
to shine through which made her fun to be
around. She lived by her motto: “Life is far too short,
and each breath too beautiful, for one to be beset by
boredom.”
Mary leaves behind her husband Charlie, their
daughter Helen, son Adam and his long-time girlfriend
Anna Scoppettone, all of Montpelier; birth son
Evan Frank of South Woodstock whom she was
thrilled to have in her life in recent years; her parents
Ernest and Charlotte Gibson of Montpelier; her sister
Margaret Gibson McCoy of East Montpelier and her
husband Patrick and their children Jackson and Jacob;
and her brother John Gibson of Watertown,
Massachusetts.
Calling hours for Mary were held at Guare & Sons
Funeral Home on Friday, December 27th from 6-8pm
and her funeral took place Saturday the 28th at 1pm,
at the Christ Episcopal Church in Montpelier with
reception that followed. The burial will be held in the
spring at the Veterans Memorial Cemetery in
Randolph, VT.

Oland F. Paton
EAST BARRE - Oland F.
Paton, 89, went to be with
his Savior Jesus Christ on Saturday,
December 21, 2019 with his family
at his bedside.
Born on February 17, 1930 in
Washington, he was the son of
Walter and Laura (Lezer) Paton. As
a youth, he worked on the family
farm and helped cut lumber to supply
naval bumpers for the war effort during WWII. He

his honorable discharge in 1952, he returned to
Vermont, where he met the love of his life Ramona
Prentice. They were joined in marriage on June 5,
1954, in the East Barre Congregational Church, in
which they were both active for many years, teaching
Sunday School classes.
Oland took a job with the capacitor division of Rock
of Ages, which was later purchased by Sprague
Electric and then later by S. B. Electronics. He retired
in 1992 after nearly 40 years with the company. For
many years he enjoyed carpentry; he built two family
homes and helped many friends in the building of
their own homes.
Survivors include his wife of 65 years, Ramona
Paton of East Barre; his daughter Vicky Paton of
Orange; his son Todd Paton of East Barre; his granddaughters
Brandi Haynes of Orange and April Drown

Hero, in the now historical home
known as the Lewis and Laura Mott
House on the shore of Lake
Champlain, she was the daughter of
Tellis and May (Curtis) Stone. Beth grew up in South
Hero until the family moved to Montpelier in 1942.
On June 11, 1949, Beth married Robert E. Sabens in

Northfield Falls for over forty years and most recently
in Barre. Robert passed away in March of 2016.
Beth worked at Norwich University in the registrar’s
office, after raising her children, until retirement.
Beth and Bob loved vacationing in the Lake
Champlain Islands as well as the coast of Maine.
Their twilight years were spent “holding court”
with friends and neighbors in their Sheridan Street
home. Everyone was welcomed with a wave and “stop
by!” Beth’s neighbors claim she was “the glue” of the
neighborhood and will be sorely missed by them.

Dear The World:
I recently heard about the couple and their puppy who
were attacked by bear ‘hound’ hunting dogs this past October
on public land. I hope that the legislature will take up the
hounding issue this coming session. Sadly, hounds can be
run all year and training seasons occur when bears, raccoons,
bobcats and other animals are tending to and nursing their
young.
For those happily unaware about what hounding involves
– it’s where a hunter allows a pack of hounds to run, chase
(and more often than not, repeatedly bite and rip apart), take
down or tree wild animals. Hounders sit in their trucks,
while their dogs, on GPS collars, run miles until the GPS
shows the dogs are staying in one spot on a target. They then
drive (as much as they can) and walk to where the dogs are.
This may be hours later.
Beyond the abhorrent cruelty to wildlife and horror for
the animals who fall victims to hounding, and the poor treatment
and neglect of the hounds, hounding poses a serious
safety risk for people.
Vermont statutes stipulate that a hound hunter must be “in
control” of their dogs. Under current law, GPS collars meet
the criteria.
A GPS collar is a locator collar, not a ‘control’ mechanism.
‘Knowing’ the approximate location of your dogs is not
‘maintaining control’ over them. No one – regardless of how
Message from Secretary Smith
I wanted to provide a status update on what is happening
at the Department of Corrections, where we are to date and
where we are likely to go from here.
Here are the steps we have taken to address the issues
brought forward in the media and our internal assessments.
Some of this information has been conveyed in the media
and may not be new to you; some has not, but I wanted you
to hear it from me directly:
• Reporting Hotline – We have set up a hotline with the
Department of Human Resources through which any
employee of the Department can report sensitive information.
These communications go directly to the Office of the
Commissioner of Human Resources. The number is 802-
828-1141.
• We have issued two notices to supervisors that no form of
retribution of retaliation against employees of the department
who have communicated or are thought to have communicated
alleged misconduct will be tolerated. Consider
this a third notice. If you hear of any retribution or retaliation,
please call the Secretary’s office directly at 802-241-
0440.
• To address the reports pertaining to Chittenden Regional
Correctional Facility, Deputy Commissioner Judy Henkin is
overseeing the day-to-day operations in coordination with
Superintendent Stone. Deputy Commissioner Henkin is
now reporting directly to me in this role.
• I will recommend to the Governor that we commission an
independent, external investigation. We are still determining
the scope of this investigation and the team to conduct it, but
it will be thorough and look deeply into the Department and
its operations. I am hopeful this investigation will start
within the next few weeks and conclude within 120 days.
This will ensure we get an outside perspective on the conditions
within the Department of Corrections. When we are
able to share more information on next steps, I will share it
brilliant they may be – has control of any dog, no less a pack
of them, when that dog is visually out of sight.
The type of training hunting hounds endure is not safe for
the public or for dogs. Dogs used for hounding are tools and
put at risk. They are punishment or corrective-based trained,
very much like how dogs are trained to ‘dog-fight.’ They are
often killed when they are no longer useful and, when not
‘hunting,’ live year-round in outside kennels and cages.
The ideal ‘objective’ of hounding is that the hounds chase,
corner and attack the right target/s. But this is unreliable,
and actually quite impossible, since they are unsupervised
and not anywhere near their owners.
Minimally, there should be legislation that specifically
states that if hounding is to be legal, the hounds must be
within verbal command and eyesight of their owner. If Fish
and Wildlife cannot figure out how to do this, then the activity
should be banned entirely.

ACLU and Prisoners Rights Violations / Constitution Violations
My name is Douglas Bedell I was born 12/12/1961.
My story is one of thousands in the state of Vermont. It
goes back to about the Kunin Administration. At that time
special rights and special interest were coming into our state,
which gave power to our court systems to make claims of
abuse without any witnesses, or even any injuries. Prior to
these special rights it was in the matrix of the laws that you
had to have injuries or at least a witness. Since these changes
to our legislature thousands of men have been arrested,
beaten and extorted multi-millions out of our public. Now
lets not make any mistakes about where to lay the blame!
The increasing government take over of the people’s rights
has dramatically increased! We are not free if you can be
grabbed off the street and held for cash (KIDNAPPING). It
should not be even allowed to come into your HOME...
Especially if the person in your home (in my case) and act
like the person in mine is made to look like they live in my
home, to gain access to my home! I did not commit any
crimes, I have been held without bail since 12/12/18. Yes
your read correctly! The police made up false (LIES) claims
about me and later rewrote those lies after viewing the videos
to suit them for the statement I wrote. Hitting with a
wine bottle, changed to a beer bottle and even strangulation
which was not in the initial report, added in after the fact so
to speak.
Enough about me and my tragic case. But it is a method of
operation for this now infamous way of writing out police
reports. Most of the women are not capable of being held or
prosecuted in the eyes of the LAW. They are called vulnerable
adults, in other words not fit to testify.
Now comes a point of my argument: Without a real
DOCTOR to write a report is there a real injury, or is all a
cover up of LIES?
• • •
If there is an actual injury and you are to be charged, then
by law there should be a doctors report to back it up. Like I
said it is in the matrix of the design! A DOCTOR client
privilege cover up! The patient and the doctor do not care if
everyone knows about HER getting stitches. It is set up like
that to protect a system gone amuck on its people!
The politicians and law makers have been beating this
horse for way over a hundred years to bring it to such a low
place in history. In fact a defence lawyer only works on a
case till it is resolved. The prosecution never rest. Legislature
is refining these laws to give themselves more power over the
people. Even to a point where you tell your mate not to do
something, it is now called verbal abuse, or the new phrase
MENTAL ABUSE, meaning you causing her to be a mental
client. But are not most of these claims by women, that are
in fact not in control of their mental faculties in the first
place, doing things that get them in these situations! And
not having the reasoning or the debating abilities, FLIP
OUT! I call it pulling a ‘NUTTY’! Their sexual behavior,
wasting money and doing DRUGS!! These are but a few
things that bring upon confrontational acts.
Extorsion of cash is the result, multi-millions in bail.
The ACLU has been defunded 100%, so they will no longer
help any one person. Separating you from your rights!
United we stand, divided we fall.
Even your rights to a speedy trial can take years, waiting
for the evidence to be viewed that would have kept you out
of jail in the first place! Judges no longer throw out cases
that are direct violations of your constitutional rights. WHY?
Judge, prosecutors and public defenders are an injustice in
their self.
(From the editor: The opinion published in The WORLD
12-25 issue incorrectly identified Mr. Bedell as Douglas Bell.)
with you through these channels. I expect to be able to provide
that update within the next week or so.
• I am working on my other recommendations to the
Governor regarding staffing, training, and other items that
have quickly come to my attention. That report will be delivered
by the end of this week. After reviewing that material
with the Governor, I will update you on that information as
well.
Lastly, I also wanted to share with all of you that Mike
Touchette has requested to return to classified service in
state government and will therefore be stepping down as
Commissioner of Corrections. In his nearly 30-year career at
the Department, Mike has held numerous positions including
most recently as Deputy Commissioner and
Commissioner. Deputy Commissioner of Corrections Judy
Henkin will step in as Acting Commissioner. There will be
another announcement soon naming an interim commissioner
who will oversee the Department during the time of
the independent review, which as I mentioned earlier, I hope
to last no more than 120 days.
During his tenure, Commissioner Touchette has worked
with community partners including the University of
Vermont, the Vermont Women’s Caucus, the Defender
General’s Office, and others to continue the work to rehabilitate
and prepare incarcerated individuals for life upon
release from incarceration.
I want to express my gratitude for his years of service,
continued service and commitment to the Department of
Corrections. Many people have expressed their admiration
for Mike, and their appreciation for the work he has undertaken
to make the Department better and more successful.
Please be in touch with any questions.
Thank you,
Mike Smith

A Brand-New Ending
By G. E. Shuman
As I write this,
it’s early morning
on
December 26. (My
submission deadline
at the paper is today and, well, Christmas
kind of consumes a lot of time around
our house, so I got up early today to say
hello to you.) As you read this, it’s much
closer to the new year, or maybe the ball
has already dropped, the tree and decorations
are down, and we have all taken that leap into a brand
new year and, this time, a brand new decade too.
I know that I say this every year, at least to myself and
probably to you, but I simply can’t believe we have burned
through another 365 ¼ days again already. (I included the ¼
day because of leap year, and yup, those 6 hours count somewhere
too.)
At my age, if you are anywhere near my age, the years seem
to fly by at an ever-increasing pace. (The analogy of a race car
speeding down a hill is okay, but race cars don’t really drive
on hills. A better one might be my old VW Beetle picking up
speed, driving downhill.) I have always thought that it could
be, seriously, that each passing year is a smaller percentage of
the total time we have lived, and so seems shorter to us than
the ones before. See how deep a thinker I am? Actually, I
didn’t make that up. I read it someplace, like most other
things you read in my column that seem to make sense.
Another thing I once read, and this one is for myself and any
of my less than cultured reader-friends, (I don’t mean you
personally.) is that “Life is like a roll of toilet paper. The
Now on Netflix

• • •
closer you get to the end, the faster it goes.”
Somehow that really does seem a reasonable
comparison, at least to me.
I visited an old friend a week ago, (It was
two weeks ago to you, you ‘hip’ New Year’s
reader-person.) and he made a passing comment
about the year and the passing of time
that I thought was observant and a bit scary.
My friend is a tad older than I am and much
wiser. His comment came as we were chatting
about family, and our kids, grandkids, and even
great-grandkids. Wow. We both agreed that all of them are all
much older than they should be now; neither of us had the
faintest idea of how that all happened. Then my friend, (Hi
Gus, I’m writing about you.) said something to the effect of,
and I paraphrase here: “They’re all pretty busy pushing us
out the door.” My friend might not remember saying this, but
I thought it was profound and precise. (Note to the kids,
grandkids, and great-grandkids: Hey guys, we love ya all, but
we ain’t goin’ through that door yet!)
Yes, another new year is upon us, and I want to leave 2019
with a bit of other advice for us all that is also something I
read, somewhere. It has to do with the entirety of life and
time, that time before us and behind us, but I also think it
applies as well to the year behind and the one ahead. It is, and
this is another paraphrase: “You can’t go back and make a
new beginning, but you can begin today and make a brandnew
ending.” How’s that for a worthwhile resolution?
Happy New Year to all of my family, and to my World
Newspaper family and friends! Let’s make it a great one!

I
suppose there is still organized crime today. There’s got
to be some Sopranos-esque mafioso out there who are
stealing, loan-sharking, and skimming cash from legitimate
businesses.
Martin Scorsese reminds us that the mafia used to be bigger
and much more powerful. Sixty years ago, crime bosses
were among the country’s most influential leaders. They
decided elections, they infiltrated organized labor, and they
even guided public policy.
“The Irishman” is an engrossing, educational film about
Mafia-America in the 1960s. Scorsese has been rightly
accused of glorifying organized crime in the past. Not this
time.
We’ve never seen a character quite like Robert De Niro’s
Frank Sheeran. He’s a hitman for the mafia who has killed
more people than he can remember. We don’t judge him, but
we can never forgive him.
Sheeran fought in Anzio during WWII. There he learned
Italian and a cold disregard for the value of human life.
Philadelphia mob boss Russell Bufalino ( Joe Pesci) knows
an asset when he sees one. He hires, protects, and befriends
young Sheeran. And he uses the Irishman for his most important
hits.
We’ve never seen Joe Pesci like this before. Bufalino is like
the kindly old man next door: patient, reasonable, and wise.
He just happens to run a business where employees have to
be murdered sometimes.
“The Irishman” shows the extraordinary power of the
mid-century mafia. In 1960, it rigged the election in Illinois
to push John F. Kennedy over the top.
The mob bosses wanted something in return (a quid pro
quo, if you will). They expected the Kennedy Administration
to overthrow the communist regime in Cuba so that the
bosses could get their hotels and casinos back. Scorsese
claims that the Bay of Pigs was a joint effort between the
mafia and feds.
When Attorney General Robert Kennedy began aggressively
investigating organized crime, the partnership between
the mafia and the Kennedys turned very sour.
Robert Kennedy also made life miserable for another powerful
man with mob ties: Jimmy Hoffa. Al Pacino steals the
Mayor’s Report – December 2019
Residents and Neighbors,
Council approved the Working
Communities initial $15,000 grant
application that, if accepted, will
allow application for a $300,000 implementation
grant. Input was given by
many organizations in the greater Barre
area to break down silos and focus on
single women households with children
to remove barriers to employment and services.
BADC showcased the “Barre Rock Solid” marketing initiative
and attended City Council seeking placement of a
$40,000 article for the Town Meeting Day ballot. City
Council reviewed use of a Downtown Improvement District
for the funding request, which comes back before Council
on January 2nd. City Council approved the second amendment
to the Unified Development Ordinance. This amendment
makes changes on Ayers Street for commercial use
within the zoning map allowing 802 Coffee to move their
roasting and production operations and 15 Ayers Street to
continue its redevelopment as a respite house.
The City’s Annual Dollar Drop on December 7th raised
over $4,000 for the BCEMS Holiday Fund. Gifts purchased
were presented by Officers Fleury and Murphy to students
from the school. Council participated in “Ugly Sweater Day”
with over 30 businesses in the City of Barre, upon a challenge
to and a request by Executive Director Tracie Lewis from the

show as Jimmy Hoffa, playing him as a charismatic egomaniac.
Martin Scorsese recently made a stir when he cantankerously
criticized modern popular movies like the Avengers
series. And I understand his perspective.
In comic book movies, the characters are rational beings
who are fighting each other because they have starkly different
goals. In “The Irishman,” Jimmy Hoffa and the mob
bosses essentially have the same goals. But it is real life, and
they are not rational people; their conflict comes from their
self-destructive flaws and human frailties.
Jimmy Hoffa’s undoing is that he gets furious when people
are late to meetings and that he is racist against Italians. It is
darkly hilarious to see the guy who played Michael Corleone
spew hurtful anti-Italian venom.
Not everyone is going to like the ending to “The Irishman,”
but I did.
At the conclusion of “Goodfellas,” Henry Hill looks back
fondly to his happy years as a young, cool gangster. In contrast,
elderly Frank Sheeran looks back at his tough, joyless
life and wonders whether anything good happened at all. He
did a brutal job and all he got for his trouble was a family of
daughters who want nothing to do with him.
The final scene is chilling. Sheeran sits by himself in his
assisted living bedroom. The priest has just left. Sheeran asks
for the priest to leave the door open a crack. And there the
dying gangster waits: quietly contemplating the fires of hell
that might be coming soon.
It is Martin Scorsese’s act of cinematic repentance. He
spent much of his career glorifying organized crime. Not this
time.
19th, residents of Ward III elected Samn Stockwell to the
vacant seat which will be filled until Town Meeting Day in
March of 2020.
Paul Costello from VCRD discussed the facilitation of the
Community Visit Program in the City of Barre early in 2020.
The City Assessor’s update on the Grand List noted an
increase in value of $10 million and a part-time assistant was
hired to reduce the backlog in permit inspections. The
Firehouse Weathervane appraisal was accepted and will be
on loan with the Vermont History Center. Early presentation
of the FY19 Audit was accepted and allows it to be included
in the Annual Report.
City Council approved several policy revisions, the Fire
Fighter’s contract, a commercial cannabis system resolution,
support for the CVSWMD’s Grant Application, and sale of 3
properties. Council began review of the FY21 Budget with
presentations given on adding police officers and funding a
mental health officer. A line-by-line review comparing previous
budgets was performed with additional work scheduled
on January 4th. Council will also start the Community Visit
process, review RFPs for planning of the Public Works
Campus and Citywide Reassessment, and FY20 priorities.
Presentations are expected with the City Plan, this year’s
Summer Camp Program, and reports by boards, commissions
and committees.
Have a safe and Happy New Year!

with master artists, young performers and organizations
while on the April performance tour.

members from Massachusetts and Maine.

ARIES (March 21 to April 19)
Events could inspire adventurous
Lambs looking to make a
major career or personal move.
But as always, get all the facts
before rushing into any sort of
deal or commitment.
TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) What seems to be a great opportunity
could cause even usually practical Taureans to ignore their
inner caution cues. Best to move carefully to avoid falling into
unseen traps.
GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Need a holiday now that the seasonal
festivities are behind you? Good idea. Plan to go someplace
wonderful. You’ll return refreshed and more than ready for a new
challenge.
CANCER ( June 21 to July 22) Progress continues to be made
on that pesky workplace problem. Meanwhile, don’t assume a
personal situation will work itself out. Best to get more involved
earlier than later.
LEO ( July 23 to August 22) Catnaps are definitely recommended
for Leos and Leonas who had been going at a hectic pace over
the holidays. Adding relaxation time to your schedule helps restore
your overdrawn energy reserves.
VIRGO (August 23 to September 22) Sure, some of the new
friends you made over the holidays might move out of your life
at some point. But at least one might show significant “staying
power” with some encouragement.
Gifford Medical Center
BIRTH
ANNOUNCEMENTS
The following birth announcements were submitted by Gifford Medical Center
on December 22, 2019. Any questions or concerns should be addressed directly to Gifford.
A boy, Henry Cullen Buck was born December 13, 2019
to Hayley (Quinones) Buck and James Buck of Northfi eld
A boy, James Jesse Marks was born December 14, 2019
to Brooke Slocum and James Marks of East Braintree
LIBRA (September 23 to October 22) Encourage family members
to join you in supporting a relative who could be facing a
difficult emotional challenge in the New Year. Showing your love
and concern helps keep his or her hopes up.
SCORPIO (October 23 to November 21) While a long-deferred
decision suddenly might take on some urgency after news on a
related matter, you still need to weigh all factors carefully before
deciding one way or the other.
SAGITTARIUS (November 22 to December 21) This is a good
time to reassess the earlier plan you made for the New Year.
Some elements you felt you could depend on to make it work
might no longer carry that assurance.
CAPRICORN (December 22 to January 19) Forming a renewed
connection with a former associate is only the first step toward
working out your new plans. Be prepared for problems, and deal
with them as soon as they arise.
AQUARIUS ( January 20 to February 18) A romantic situation
that was going smoothly not too long ago might take a new turn.
Be honest about your feelings before you decide whether to follow
it or take another path.
PISCES (February 19 to March 20) The wise Pisces (that’s you,
of course) will make sure everyone knows your plan to keep your
options open and listen to all sides of the situation before making
any decisions.
BORN THIS WEEK: Your honest approach to life and living is
always an inspiration for others fortunate enough to know you.

opened the time capsule they
had placed at the start of
2018. Great fun was had by
all!
Barre Elks Lodge #1535 presented
a check for $250 to
Our House to assist in their
continued collaboration with
agencies for the benefit of
our community. Our House is
the first Children’s Advocacy
Center in Vermont and provides
a safe, neutral site for law enforcement, Dept. of
Children and Families, the Department of Corrections,
Mental Health Professionals, victim advocacy groups, and
victims to gather. The funds were a portion of the Elks
National Foundation Anniversary Grant awarded to Barre
Lodge.
The Salvation Army teamed
up with the Star 92.9 radio
group, Members Advantage
Community Credit Union,
and Lenny’s Shoe & Apparel
for the annual Christmas is
for Kids holiday gift drive.
Through the month of
December, the radio group shared the Christmas wish lists of
local children live on the airwaves. The community reacted,
getting Angel Tags, fulfilling their wish lists, and dropping
their gift donations off at Lenny’s Shoe & Apparel stores
across Vermont and Plattsburgh, New York.
Fancy Felines Cat Show was very successful
this year. The weather was on
our side. Last year, we had the storm
named Jonas. That really took away
from our spectators. This year was
cold, but clear – and the people just
kept coming. Best of all, they seemed
to be having an enjoyable time, all
1,895 of them (and that doesn’t include
the kids under six). The Pet Me Cats
were a hit. These are cats whose owners
feel the cats are calm enough to
enjoy the attention.
Central Vermont Home
Health & Hospice (CVHHH)
and The City of Barre entered
into an agreement, a
Memorandum of
Understanding (MOU), that
granted CVHHH permission
to use a portion of the Barre Auditorium (AUD) as an alternate
facility site so that CVHHH may continue to operate
and provide care for central Vermonters in the event of a
natural disaster or emergency. Lucas Herring, Mayor of the
City of Barre, with Jeff Bergeron, Director of Buildings &
Community Services, were present as Sandy Rousse,
CVHHH’s President & CEO, counter-signed the MOU on
January 21 at the AUD.

Barre Lodge of Elks #1535
presented the 2019
Citizenship Award to Sara
Akers. This award, presented
by Exalted Ruler Barb Watters, is presented to a member
of the community who has contributed in a special way to
improving the local community, shown leadership and contributed
voluntary service and is an ‘all around good citizen’.
Sara was noted for her big heart and activism in helping
those in need.
MAY 2019
One night after what would
have been Pete Seeger’s
100th birthday, Barre’s Old
Labor Hall resounded with a
sing-along and concert celebrating
the late folksinger
and social activist. “For the
Love of Pete” was held on
May 4 at 7 PM at the historic hall, 46 Granite St., Barre featuring
Anything Goes, consisting of veteran local musicians
Ben Koenig and Mark Greenberg.
Community members supported Take
Back Day on April 27th by disposing of
unused medications in area collection
sites like this one at the Montpelier
Police Department. Nineteen boxes of
medications, equaling 565 pounds
were collected in Washington County.
Statewide, total weight of medications
collected was 6,562 pounds which helps prevent misuse.
The 23rd Annual Mutt Strut
was held on April 28 in
Waterbury. Forty-four runners
and walkers, many pulled
along by leashed dogs, braved
the chill to try for prizes totaling
over $1000.00. Perhaps
readers heard about this event
on Radio Station WDEV in an interview with the race director,
Cindy Gardner-Morse, on April 18, 2019. Or maybe folks
saw an advertising poster donated by Capital Copy of
Montpelier. As advertised, the proceeds above costs were
donated to VT-CAN, a Middlesex-based clinic that offers
low-cost neutering for companion dogs and cats. Information
about their services can be found at their website: vt- can.org

CVHHH’s hospice program was found to be in “strong compliance”
with state and federal hospice regulations, passing
the survey with no deficiencies.
Girl Scout Brownies of Troop

The National Life Group
Foundation granted a record
$1.9 million this spring to
nonprofit organizations and
schools, including significant
investments to relieve childhood
hunger.
The Foundation took up
the cause of ending childhood hunger in Vermont last year
and is working to fill some of the gaps identified in research
it commissioned by the Urban Institute, which produced a
report defining the scope of the issue.
The Family Center of
Washington County had 175
community supporters help
celebrate spring into summer
at their Hop ‘n’ Bop Festival
and Diaper Drive on June 1.
Six thousand diapers were
collected by June 1 and more
were still coming in. The Family Center is grateful to everyone
who donated diapers, either at the Hop ‘n’ Bop Festival
or at one of the following area businesses that had a diaper
drop box in their lobby: BlueCross and BlueShield, Central
VT Chamber of Commerce, Central VT Home Health &
Hospice, Central VT Medical Center, Community Bank in
Barre, Northfield and Waterbury branches, Noyle W.
Johnson Insurance, People’s United Bank in Barre, Montpelier
and Waterbury branches, Shaw’s in Berlin Corners and in
Montpelier, and the Waterbury Public Library.
The annual “Learn to Skate”
camp was held at the Travis
Mercy Skate Park in Barre
Town, Vt., Saturday June 22,
2019.
There was an excellent
turn out this year with 18
participants, from ages 6 to
12, and was offered totally free of charge to the campers with
each receiving a new helmet and t-shirt. The helmets were
donated by The Bicycle Shop on Main St. Barre Thank you!
It was an absolute beautiful day for everyone! Thank you
to Curtis Ritchie and Tony Chichulo for leading the camp
with your mentorship!

Barre Fish and Game Early
History – In the late 1800s
and early 1900s there was a
state organization to which
individuals could belong, the
old Vermont Sportman’s
League. It was more of a
political body than a conservation
club and it had a hand
in electing Vermont’s governors. It is entirely possible that
many of Barre’s less affluent hunters and anglers felt a bit “left
out” and wanted a club of their own. It was in the 1920s that
the Barre Fish and Game Club started to flourish.
Pictured here, from left-to-right,
are Abigail Lindhiem, Paige
Allen and Madison Pembroke.
Barre Town School students
recently joined in the statewide
SEEDS Summer
Leadership Training
Program held at Northern
Vermont University-Lyndon,
sponsored by Vermont Student Assistance Corp. and funded
by its federal GEAR UP grant.
They spent three days and two nights on campus with
students from around the state, participating in team-building
activities, team challenges, projects and games designed
to help them find their passion, build their confidence, map
out long-term goals and develop a strong sense of purpose as
they transition into high school.

Northstar Fireworks of East

on Thursday, July 18, 2019 with a pyrotechnic spectacle that
ignited the night with an unparalleled barrage of color, light,

When Seven Days launched
Vermont Restaurant Week 10
years ago, the goal was to
celebrate Vermont’s vibrant
food scene, drive traffic to
local businesses and help our neighbors in need. At least one
measure of the event’s success set a record this year: a
$25,344.03 donation to the Vermont Foodbank. Over the past
decade, Restaurant Week has generated a total of $147,395.36
for the Vermont nonprofit. Vermont Federal Credit Union is
the presenting sponsor of Restaurant Week.
Vermont Creamery cofounders
Bob Reese and
Allison Hooper were inducted
into the Specialty Food
Association Hall of Fame at a
ceremony held during the
Summer Fancy Food Show in
New York City. Bob and
Allison founded Vermont
Creamery in 1984; over the next 35 years, the improbable
business partners became pioneers of the artisan cheese
movement in the United States, introducing American diners
to goat cheese and later, European-style butter.
“It’s an honor to be inducted to the SFA Hall of Fame,” said
Bob Reese. “The Specialty Food Association has been pivotal
in supporting crafters of specialty food and fostering a
sense of community amongst innovators and we’re thrilled to
be a part of the movement.”

The National Center for Missing &

product for children in grades K-5.
This includes an animated web series

NCMEC CyberTipline reports, each
episode focuses on a different element
of online safety, from strategies for
handling cyber-bullying to recognizing and reporting unsafe/
inappropriate interactions and content. Additional episodes
will be available throughout the year.
“Into the Cloud” presents important safety information in
an age-appropriate and entertaining manner! All the resources
are free! The first two episodes are available at www.

Montpelier Rotary and representatives
from Waterbury
and Central Vermont clubs
traveled to the Mayo Nursing
Home in Northfield to honor
a fellow Rotary member and
past District Governor (‘87-
’88), Frederick Cook, on
completing 51 years of continuous service to the Montpelier
Rotary Club. A letter from Governor Phil Scott was read to
Cook by Montpelier Rotary Club President Nat Frothingham.
Cook recently celebrated his 90th birthday on Aug. 24. His
extensive community service includes the Montpelier
Veterans Memorial Project, along with his long professional
life with the Vermont Petroleum Industry, the Vermont
Legislature and Vermont State Chamber of Commerce.
Local Writer Publishes Book about Growing
Up with Autism
“I am not king of the book world
yet,” said Todd Washburne, “but
my book, My Random Thoughts
and Feelings: Speaking Out from
Autism, is a giant step in that direction.”
Todd grew up in Montpelier
when very little was known about
autism and how to treat it and he
had no way to communicate until
he learned to type and be more social as an adult.
The best thing about the book is that it tells newcomers
what it was like to grow up seriously underestimated due to
his inability to communicate, but is now able to articulate
about so many subjects.
Copies of the book can be purchased at central Vermont
bookstores or borrowed from central Vermont libraries.
Todd’s poems are also often featured in The World’s Poetry
Corner column.
Banner Year for Potato Picking at Barb and Bob
Chappelle’s Farm
A week or two later than last
year but boy was it worth it
for the public to pick their
own fresh dug potatoes and
maybe sample some of Ana’s
homemade french fries
made right in the field on
Sunday, October 6.
According to farmers Barb and Bob Chappelle there was a
line in the field as far as the eye could see of people waiting
for the tractor that was tilling potatoes to come by and “it
stayed that way for most of the day.”
It is a one-day-event only and at 35¢ a pound you could not
beat it. As the Chappelle’s said, “All you have to do is bring
your own containers and follow the digger!”

of their “Queen of Hearts” raffle. Thelma and Carol

Wayside estaurants Bakery
Team holds their Food Network
award high celebrating a sweet
victory! Over the years they
have made thousands of tasty
maple cream pies for locals and
tourists alike. Gourmet Magazine
once wrote in their Thanksgiving
issue, “The Wayside
estaurants maple cream pie is
too delicious for words!”
50 States of Pie—The
Wayside Restaurant’s maple
cream pie was selected by the Food Network as Vermont’s
iconic pie. As we all know, pie is so much more than just a
dessert. There’s a feeling of nostalgia and comfort in every
bite, not to mention a strong sense of place. Turns out you
can learn a lot about a state’s agricultural and historical traditions
by eating its pie.
The Food Network has identified pies in each of the 50
states that are worthy of a taste. To learn more about the
other 49 iconic pies in America go to the “50 States of Pie” at
https://www.foodnetwork.com/restaurants/photos/50-
states-of-pie and start planning your cross country trip!
Erica Rocheleau and Mindy
Sprague hold a poster thanking
the businesses and individual

to the 5th Annual

Community Developmental
Services consumers and staff.
They served almost 200 meals to raise funds for the art program
of The Learning Collaborative. The remaining meals
were donated to The Good Samaritan Haven.

On Veterans Day, members
of the S.A.L. Squadron #10
and Elks Lodge 1535 presented
a check for $8,500
from the Granite City 5K
Run/Walk for Veterans to the
Veteran’s Place, Inc. in
Northfield. From left to right,
Karen Boyce, Renee Hotaling, Barb Watters, a resident from
the Veterans Place, Lucas Herring, and Chip Paine.
Hannaford Supermarkets
announced a $188,000 donation
to the Vermont
Foodbank, which will allow
the non-profit organization
to more than double the
reach of its VeggieVanGo program
and deliver fresh,
healthy food directly to students and families who may not be
able to visit a traditional meal site or food shelf at a total of 13
schools throughout Vermont.
The VeggieVanGo program is a mobile unit which delivers
fresh fruits, vegetables and other healthy food directly to
students and families at school distribution sites. As a result
of the donation from Hannaford, the VeggieVanGo program
will expand to four new schools in 2020: Academy School in
Brattleboro; Spaulding High School in Barre; Washington
Village School in Washington; and Woodstock High School
in Woodstock.
Watch for Me-VT – New data
released from the National
Highway Traffic Safety
Administration
(NHTSA)
show that despite an overall
decrease in fatal vehicular crashes, the number of people
killed while walking and biking has increased – a trend that
Vermont health and transportation officials want thrown into
reverse. In Vermont, nine pedestrians were struck and killed
while walking along roads in 2017, and 133 pedestrians and
179 bicyclists were hospitalized or went to an emergency
department after a crash involving a vehicle.
The Health Department and Agency of Transportation
have launched Watch for Me-VT, a public outreach campaign
designed to raise awareness of road safety issues, and to promote
multidisciplinary partnerships that assist communities
in developing policies and infrastructure changes that support
road user safety.
DECEMBER 2019
The tally is in! For the second
year in a row, employeeowned
companies in
Vermont joined together to
collect donations for the
Vermont Food Bank.
Members of Employee
Owners of Vermont raised a
total of $35,186 and collected a total of 5,604 pounds of food
for the Vermont Food Bank in October, which is Employee
Ownership Month. This was nearly double the amount collected
the year before.
On the Wednesday prior to
Thanksgiving Day, US Army
Reserve Ambassador John
des Groseilliers is shown presenting
his businesses annual
donation to Karen Boyce,
Administrative and Financial
Manager of the Veterans
Place in Northfield, VT. For the past several years Ambassador
des Groseilliers, who is appointed by the Chief of the Army
Reserve as an advocate has supported The Veterans Place, a
home established 10 years ago for veterans needing a helping
hand up in their transition back to civilian life. The Army
Reserve Ambassador program was instituted in 1998 to further
the goals and mission of soldiers serving their Country
in the Army Reserve.
A welcoming reception was
held at the Barre Aud. for the
Vermont AOT employees,
that have moved into Barre
City Place in Downtown
Barre. The event was hosted
by the City of Barre, The
Barre Partnership, BADC,
and AOT. Over 300 people were present and received gift
bags full of items from local businesses in Barre to say
Welcome!
A record 101 pairs of loons
nested in Vermont in 2019 with
87 chicks surviving through
August. VTF&W photo by Mitch
Moraski.
Vermont’s loons are thriving
with a record 101 nesting
pairs recorded statewide in
2019, the highest since loon
monitoring began in 1978, according to the Vermont Fish
and Wildlife Department and Vermont Center for Ecostudies
(VCE). “Seventy-five of the loon nests successfully produced
115 chicks this year,” said wildlife biologist Eric Hanson with
VCE. “Although there were losses, 87 chicks survived
through August which exceeded the past five-year average
survival of 73 percent.”

The right ways to update a résumé
The 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 Year’s
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
résumés before beginning their search. It’s not uncommon for
recruiters to receive thousands of résumés for each job opening
they post, and the sheer volume of applicants can make
it difficult for job seekers to get their résumés 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 résumés 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 résumé 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 manager’s attention in the process.
• Embrace keywords. Many employers now use application
tracking software to sift through the scores of résumés that
are submitted for each opening they post. Keywords make
it easy for employers to sort through thousands of résumés.
The right keywords will flag your résumé and increase
your “relevancy score” in the main HR/recruiting software
programs available. Adapt your résumé 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 résumés. List all
of the pertinent information, then go over the résumé 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 résumé 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 résumés that include
links to a candidate’s portfolio, website or blog garner more
attention than résumés without such links.
• Put your own voice in the résumé. Rather than using
standard verbiage on your résumé, 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 résumé with the goal of standing out among a
crowded pool of applicants is a great way for job seekers to
land a new job.

Blown Glassware
It is very difficult to identify early blown glassware from
the 18th century because talented modern glass blowers
can make good copies in the earlier styles and colors.
Today, chemical analysis of the glass, along with other
modern methods, can identify the source of the sand (silica)
used in glass. This led to the discovery that many museums
had 1930s Mexican copies.
If you are lucky enough to find a piece of early American
blown glass, look at the shape and clarity of the glass, ask
about the history, and look for scratches and other marks
that indicate wear. Then get a bill of sale that describes the
piece and includes the probable age and history. Also, be
sure there is a money-back guarantee if the piece turns out
to be a fake. Most auctions do this, but online sales of
unknown dealers or galleries can be dangerous, especially
when you are buying old glass.
A bright cobalt blue-blown covered sugar bowl was sold
at a Norman C. Heckler & Co. auction for $2,340. It is 6 3/4
inches high and 4 3/4 inches in diameter. Of course, it has
a scar from the pontil rod. The finial on the lid is shaped
like an acorn, but the best clue to its age is the engraving
“A.G. 1780” on the glass and the knowledge that it has been
in a famous glass collection for many years. Experts think

Q: I have a Carlton Ware walking teapot, four cups and
sugar bowl with Hawaiian decoration. What are they
worth?
A: Walking Ware tea sets are creamy rounded earthenware
pieces mounted on quirky legs. They were designed
in 1974 by husband-and-wife team Roger Michell (1947-
2018) and Danka Napiorkowska (b. 1946) and made in
their English studio called Lustre Pottery. Pieces were
handmade by Roger, then decorated by Danka. Later,
Walking Ware was also made by Carlton Ware, a Stoke-on-
Trent pottery factory started in 1896. After a trip to the
island of St. Lucia, the couple designed the Caribbean
Series in 1978 with a tropical theme decoration in light
blue, green and yellow. The legs are wearing white socks
with a blue band and yellow shoes. Pieces were made by
Lustre Pottery and also by Carlton Ware until they closed
in 1986. Limited-edition items were made in the 2000s.
Plain Walking Ware pieces sell from $10 for an egg cup to
about $50 for a teapot. Caribbean-decorated pieces sell for
about twice that.

Meet Tansy!
I came to CVHS when my previous owner
was no longer able to care for me. My
favorite things to do is nap in the window,
with the warm sunshine making my lovely
locks glow. I very much enjoy the occasional
romp with feathers and toy balls. With
proper introduction I would probably do
okay with a cat-savvy dog. Just now I am
visiting Spruce at Guy’s Farm & Yard in

Ice Fishing FUNdamentals – How to Enjoy
Yourself and Stay Safe on the Ice this Winter
As winter sets in, many Vermonters are preparing for one
of the most popular cold weather pastimes in the state – ice
fishing. Anglers spend over 400,000 days each winter ice
fishing in Vermont, and the state’s Fish & Wildlife Department
is encouraging more people to give this accessible past-time
a try.
Department fisheries biologist Shawn Good says ice fishing
is a fun, social, family-oriented activity, and that there are
many great reasons for Vermonters new to the sport to try it
this year.
“Ice fishing is generally more accessible than open water
fishing,” says Good. “Almost anyone can walk out on a frozen
lake or pond and fish through the ice. And once you’re
out there, there’s lots of room to spread out.”
Ice fishing can be more sociable than open water fishing,
with friends and family gathering on the ice for cookouts and
winter fun, along with the fishing.
“For many, it’s not just about the fish. Kids love ice fishing
because they can run around and slide on the ice or play in
the snow. I’ve seen families with grills, food and hot drinks
having a great time. They set their tip-ups, build snowmen,
play football, and even skate in between bouts of fishing.”
It’s inexpensive and simple to get started. “An auger used

for cutting holes in the ice is the most expensive piece of
equipment you’ll need. But you can get a 4-inch or 6-inch
hand auger for under $50 and share it with others, so not
everyone needs one. Add a scoop for cleaning out the holes
and an ice fishing rod and reel combo or a couple tip-ups
with hooks, weights and bait and you’re set for a fun day on
the ice.”
When you’ve had a successful outing, bringing home a meal
of healthy, locally caught fresh fish is a delicious benefit.
“I think fish taste better in the winter,” says Good. “There’s
something different about pulling a tasty perch, bluegill or
bass from ice cold water. They tend to be firmer and have a
milder taste than in the summer.”
Good says it is normal for new anglers to worry about
venturing out on frozen water, but with a few basic precautions
and common sense, ice fishing is safe.
“A minimum of three to four inches of clear black ice is
safe to walk on. If you’re unsure about ice thickness in your
area call your local bait and tackle shop. They’re always up
on current conditions and can help you get started with gear
and advice, too. You can also look for other people out fishing.
Experienced anglers know how to read the ice, so if
you’re unsure, go where others are or have been,” advised
Good.
It is important to know that ice isn’t always uniform in
thickness. Areas around pressure cracks or near stream or
river inlets can be thinner and weaker than surrounding ice.
Good advises anglers to carry a set of ice picks, head out with
a partner, and let someone know where you will be fishing,
your access point and when you plan on returning home.
Good says dressing properly is key. “On a calm sunny day,
you’ll be surprised how comfortable you feel. Even with the
thermometer showing single
digits, the sun will warm you
right up. Make sure you
dress in layers and keep your
head, hands and feet covered
and dry, and you’ll be quite
toasty,” said Good.
No matter where you live
in Vermont, an ice fishing
opportunity is close by. Ice
fishing is a great way to enjoy
the outdoors in winter, offering
a fun, unique winter
experience.

REAL ESTATE
Exterior renovations
that can improve
home value
Renovating a home to improve its
value can be a smart investment.
Interior improvements, such as
updating kitchens and baths, offer
good return on investment, but there are
plenty of exterior renovations that can add
value to a home and give it that coveted
“wow” factor.
LANDSCAPING
Abundant and well-planned landscaping can instantly
boost curb appeal. According to the landscaping company
Lawn Starter, 71 percent of prospective home buyers say
a home’s curb appeal is an important factor in their buying
decisions. As buyers use the internet to look for their dream
homes, there’s no denying a beautifully landscaped, nicely
photographed property can entice buyers to click and read
more about a house.
ADDRESS INSECTS AND MINOR REPAIRS
Improving home value may come down to fixing areas of
the home that can negatively affect its appeal to buyers. Hire
an inspector to look at key components of the house and
recommend what needs to be fixed. This way it is discovered
before home buyers come in and do their own inspections.
Termite infestations, deteriorating roofs and hidden water
leaks are some things that might need fixing.
IMPROVE THE ENTRYWAY
The front door is the focal point of a home’s exterior.
Invest in a new door or paint it a striking color to add appeal.
Remodeling magazine’s “Cost vs. Value Report 2019”
indicates changing an entry door to a steel replacement can
offer 74.9 percent ROI. Such a door provides visual appeal
and added security — things buyers look for. In addition
to the front door, make sure that the entryway has a level
walkway, steps that are in good repair, accents that are free
from rust or tarnish, and decorative plants.
OUTDOOR LIGHTING
Outdoor lighting can add to the ambiance of a property
and serve as a security feature. Utilize different lights, such
as a bright light by the entry, uplighting in trees and shrubs
for drama, a light-lined path to the door to improve visibility,
and motion-detection lights to improve the security
of the property.
REPAINT (OR RESIDE) THE EXTERIOR
A fresh coat of paint or new (or cleaned) siding can
instantly give homes a facelift. Neutral, warm and inviting
colors tend to have the widest appeal. Adding manufactured
stone veneer to the home can offer a 94.9 percent ROI, says
Remodeling. And after doing the front door and siding, investing
in a garage door replacement offers the highest ROI
of all exterior projects listed on the “Cost vs. Value Report
2019.” This improvement returns 97.5 percent when selling.
Knowing which improvements add value to a home can
help homeowners tailor their efforts to those that are most
financially beneficial.
