Elise Braun poses by just two of 25 pieces of framed Vermont art donated to Gifford Medical Center recently. Braun is donating art to all of the states hospitals through a foundation created in her daughters memory, the Susan Sebastian Foundation.

We appreciate your business.

Octogenarians Elise Braun of Waterbury and Gilbert Myers of Williston recently hand-delivered 25 pieces of artwork to 25-bed Gifford Medical Center in Randolph. The framed art is by 13 different Vermont painters and photographers, and is a gift from the Susan Sebastian Foundation to Gifford for its patient rooms. The foundation is named for Brauns daughter, who passed away in 2009 and had a wish to brighten hospital rooms through local art. The art given to Gifford holds a common look and feel. Each piece depicts Vermonts warm weather months spring, summer and fall and is of the outdoors. Braun and Myers used the book Healing Spaces: The Science of Place and Well-Being by Dr. Esther Sternberg to help guide their purchases, which are meant to take the patient out of the room and into the outdoors to a favorite vista or recreational hobby. It gets you out of the room and gets you thinking about getting out, says Braun. It makes you feel like you want to get better. For Gifford, which helped pick out the pieces and invited many local artists to participate, the artwork is a welcome addition to patient care and the patient experience.

Healing Through Art

This is truly an extension of Giffords commitment to support local as this gift allows us to showcase our local talent while bringing warmth to our patients, says Ashley Lincoln, Gifford director of development and public relations. We are thankful to the Susan Sebastian Foundation for including Gifford in its outreach and appreciate the amount of work and effort that goes into a gift like this. For Braun, the foundations work is healing. It has been very therapeutic for me, extremely therapeutic. It makes me feel she (Sebastian) is at work in the world and that makes me happy. This is Susan. This is what she was about, Braun says. Sebastians good work continues. In addition to Gifford, Fletcher Allen Health Care received 47 pieces from the foundation in 2009, next Northwestern Medical Center in St. Albans received 37 pieces, 12 pieces then went to Grace Cottage Hospital in Townshend and 38 to Porter Medical Center in Middlebury. Next will be Copley Hospital in Morrisville. Myers and Brauns goal is to provide local art to all Vermont hospitals over the next several years.

The American Cancer Society is celebrating the hope of spring with the public launch of its annual Daffodil Days fundraising campaign. Now is the official period for daffodil order-taking, daffodil product awareness, promotion of the www.cancer/daffodils interactive website, volunteer recruitment and delivery of the blossoms in time for spring. We are excited by the hope and spirit that Daffodil Days brings to those who have supported the campaign year after year, says Michele Almeida, staff partner with the American Cancer Society. This year, we are working toward expanding that reach into each New England community, alerting them of the opportunities to get involved and how even a $10 dollar donation can make a tremendous difference for neighbors and friends faced with a cancer diagnosis this year, she added. Daffodil Days offers a bouquet of products: For a $10 gift, donors receive a bouquet of ten fresh daffodil blossoms. Three mini-daffodil bulbs in a soil-filled pot are available for a $15 donation. A bouquet of ten daffodils and a Boyds collectable stuffed bear for a $25 donation. Gift of Hope: daffodils are delivered to a cancer patient undergoing treatment for a $25 donation and up. Bear Hugs for Hope: a special edition, Boyds collectable bear is delivered to a child impacted by cancer for a contribution of $25. Flower and product orders can be placed now through March 2 by calling the American Cancer Society at 1-800-227-2345 or making an online donation at www.cancer. org/daffodils. Delivery occurs the week before spring, beginning March 18. For more than 35 years, the American Cancer Society has, through its Daffodil Days program, been sharing hope for a world with less cancer and more birthdays by helping people get well, stay well, find cures and fight back against cancer. Although Daffodil Days involves offering daffodils to donors every spring in appreciation for their contributions, it is about more than just giving beautiful flowers; it is an opportunity to share hope for a world free of cancer. Volunteer opportunities abound for school children to corporate CEOs to assist in taking daffodil orders, sorting and packing the bouquets for order fulfillment and/or delivering daffodils in your community during the week of March 18. Supporting Daffodil Days as a volunteer or a donor provides the knowledge that you are contributing to a cancerfree world. Dollars raised through Daffodil Days enable the Society to offer free programs and services that help people fight cancer with courage and optimism, while it provides day-to-day help, emotional support, and 24-hour informa

Chamber Annual Meeting Puts Millennials Into Focus

The Central Vermont Chamber of Commerce elected a new leadership team Thursday morning, and then gained powerful insights into the attitudes CENTRAL of more distant leaders, the Millennials or VERMONT CHAMBER OF NextGeneration. COMMERCE Susan Kruthers of Central Vermont Medical Center was installed as chair of the Chamber board of directors, succeeding Steve Gilman of rbTechnologies after two years at the helm. Gilman said he enjoyed the opportunity to work for the betterment of the local economy and was pleased the Chamber introduced new recruiting tools, had the highest member growth since the crash, successfully opposed new local option taxes, and continued its support of a regional public safety initiative. He said a new shop local effort involving 90 area businesses has great potential. The retiring board chair credited his officers and directors and individually thanked those leaving the board: Tim Ross, Nancy Zorn, Mike Donovan and former board chair Robert Lord, Jr. The membership re-elected Leslie Sanborn to the board as well as newcomers Curtis Ostler of Norwich University, Byron Atwood of DMS Machining & Fabrication, Gary Hass of The World, and Jim Breer of Better Home Inspections. Ostler also led the presentation NextGen: Understanding and engaging new generations of people and technology that tapped the founder of Local 64, a partner in Cornerstone Pub & Kitchen, and a Norwich cadet lieutenant colonel for additional perspective. Essentially, those who think todays youth are in a world all their own are correct, Ostler explained. They have grown up with technology that earlier generations are struggling to understand or simply ignoring. The smartphones they carry have access to more information than the FBI did during President Clintons administration, and they communicate better worldwide than General Norman Schwarzkopf could during the Gulf War. Ostler said those born after 1985, the Millennials, are confident, upbeat, self-expressive, open to change, and connected - to each other and to the world in ways previous generations could not

imagine. He noted that the internet and social media have no boundaries. Posted information is immediately available worldwide, instantaneously. The spread of information fuels the pace of change. Paxman, co-owner of Cornerstone, posted messages on Facebook explaining the soon-to-be business and sharing its logo. It had 1,500 followers before Cornerstone opened its doors. Reacting to his descriptions of what was to come and expressing their own desires, Facebook friends helped guide the pub more heavily toward restaurant. The business changed before it even opened, Paxman said. The pace of social change is also accelerating. A century ago, women couldnt vote. A few decades ago, womens basketball played by different rules than mens basketball. Today, women will enter the front lines of combat. Cadet Lt. Colonel Emily Baugus said male officers under command never questioned her leadership. Captain of the womens rugby team, Baugus is pursuing a degree in construction engineering management and expects to serve as a helicopter pilot. One of her friends is preparing to pilot fighter jets. Times have changed. First came the tele-commute. Then came work anywhere. That has now been followed with working together independently, said Lars Hasselblad Torres, the man behind Local 64. He said work-at-home people, independent contractors, and creative spirits need local interaction to exchange ideas, make connections, and share experiences. That evolution barely spans 20 years. Businesses that dont connect with Millennials will lose remarkably resourceful employees and will fail to reach a huge and growing customer base. Operating without using the web or social media is like running a business without a telephone. If you will not, or cannot [utilize new technologies], hire someone who can! Ostler added. The presentation was extremely well received by more than 120 business and community leaders attending the meeting at the Capitol Plaza Hotel & Conference Center. Ostler and his co-presenters graciously remained following the meeting, taking individual questions for an additional 20 minutes.

Congressman Peter Welch spoke on Monday at Vermont Technical Colleges celebration of a new Enterprise Center program to assist veterans who seek to launch or grow existing small businesses. The Vermont Tech Enterprise Center Business Incubator at the Randolph Center Campus now offers a space for veterans who seek to accomplish office work, training, business meetings, or simply want an area to think and share ideas with other business owners. The impetus to founding this new space comes from the success of the Vermont Small Business Development Center (VtSBC) in supporting veterans entrepreneurial goals. A similar program at VtSBC ended in June 2012, and many of the resources and materials in the Vermont Tech incubator came from VtSBC. Chris Herriman, former Veteran Business Advisor at VtSBDC, teamed up with Steve Paddock, Director of the Vermont Tech Enterprise Center Business Incubator, to conceive a space that includes high-speed Internet service, copiers, meeting and conference spaces, video conferencing through Vermont Interactive Television, and a hospitality area. Participants will also have access to the fitness center at Vermont Tech. The space is free of charge to veterans and service members that are starting or growing a business in Vermont, and will be available in one hour increments by reservation. Our goal was to create a space that not only nurtures the entrepreneurial spirit of our military small business community, but

says thank you for serving and that now its our turn to serve you, said Herriman. The Vermont Tech Enterprise Center Business Incubator, founded in 2002, provides low cost, fully equipped offices as well as professional business services. An outreach program of Vermont Technical College, it is currently host to entrepreneurs in a wide range of fields, including law, engineering, wood product sales, food business, enterprise resource planning, and software development. The challenges in building businesses vary widely, said Paddock. Some entrepreneurs may have limited capital to launch their business, while others may be missing the professional network and expertise to help it grow. The center is specially designed to meet these needs, and we are particularly interested in helping our veterans who seek new opportunities in Vermont.

Either way, Life of Pi really made me think. Ive never seen a film like it before. For that reason alone I recommend it.

Life of Pi really made me think. It made me think about how religiously homogeneous the Western Hemisphere is. The vast majority of the people in the Americas are part of the same religion. Of course there are different sects of Christianity. But they all agree on the fundamental truth of John 3:16, and thats a pretty big thing to rally around. Its no coincidence that there has never been a holy war in the Americas. I cant believe that St Peter is going to be super judgmental about which sects of Christianity get into heaven. I cant imagine him saying: you didnt believe in actual transubstantiation of the Eucharist? Im shocked. Get ready to burn. To folks like us in the monotheistic West, it is hard to relate to the very different point of view of people who grew up in India. Life of Pi helps us understand. If Israel is the Holy Land, India can fairly be called the other Holy Land. Buddha was an Indian and Buddhism was established in India. But the locals didnt take to it. Not enough gods, perhaps. Hinduism, and its 1000s of gods, was more appealing. It became the undisputed faith of the subcontinent for a millennium. That is until the Mughal Empire began ruling India in the 16th Century. Now there are hundreds of millions of ethnic Indians who practice Islam. The religious landscape got even more complex when Christianity was introduced as Great Britain conquered India in the 1800s. Pi Patel - the movies narrator - is fascinated by religion as a

For letters of thanks, contact our advertising department at 479-2582; non-profit rates are available. Editor: Prior to voting during city meeting this year, Montpelier voters should read as well as thoroughly examine the details of the proposed Fiscal Year 2014 (FY 2014) municipal budget very carefully. In doing so, one will find that certain municipal positions are being eliminated by attrition (i.e., due to anticipated retirements). These positions include one full-time police officer, one full-time firefighter/EMT and one full-time public works street employee. These are vital direct service positions that help maintain both the level as well as quality of services not only expected, but more importantly they are also needed. While it might be true that the city manager and city council are empowered to develop and propose the city budget, it is also true that the last word on approving the same belongs solely to the voters. During the final budget hearing there were some members of the city council who had cynically stated, among other things, about how if voters did not like the choices made within the budget, then voters could vote it down. It is deeply troubling to contemplate that the only means now left for city voters to make their concerns and voices heard as well as heeded when it comes to ensuring a good and healthy quality life is to vote down the city budget at the ballot box. In the end, individual voters will have to decide whether or not the proposed FY 2014 budget truly measures up to their own expectations, priorities and vision concerning the provision of quality municipal services and vote accordingly.

rooms to turn to for health care. Similarly, if people new to Exchange find these costs too daunting, they will choose to pay the relatively nominal penalty and become uninsured. At the Peoples Health & Wellness Clinic in Barre, one of Vermonts ten free clinic programs, weve been assisting people with application and enrollment in Vermonts health insurance programs for years. Our lengthy experience has shown that no matter how good a job we do, some people are still getting their eligibility and premium notices and saying they simply cant afford the current rates. Or, they dig deep and make a months payment or two, but then cant stick with it. These folks also wont be able to get back in to the Exchange under the new Open Enrollment Period restrictions until the following year, even if they were able to find a way to pay. This is another change from the current system, which allows us to enroll patients in the states insurance programs year-round. We are proud to deliver quality care to our patients, but we see ourselves as only a temporary medical home. Getting our patients on insurance is better for them, their families, and their employers, making them more productive at home and at work. Its also better for the health care system, helping avoid cost shifting, inappropriate and costly use of hospital emergency rooms. Im glad the Governor has bitten off a piece of the pie; it makes it a little easier for the Legislature to do the rest. However, if the canyon is sixty feet wide, and the Governor shrinks it to only thirty, but the patient can only jump ten, it doesnt make any difference.

Reisss Pieces
By Judy Reiss be as sick. I am probably so pro flu shot because in my past life, I had to do a lot of research about the heinous flu epidemic that swept the northeast in 1918. So many people died and so many children were left orphans, that it is really mind boggling. And the thought that we are anticipating the flu and a real epidemic again, any and all opportunities to help you not to get it seems like a miracle. Even if you get or have gotten your flu shot, there are things that you can do to prevent getting the flu and lots of other nasty things that will make you sick. I do think that lots of them are probably, if not unreasonable, at least they are a pain! But things like being careful where you sneeze or how you cough, seem like a good thing to do. But I heard the other day something that I have never, ever thought about before. And now that I know, I assure you that it is something that I can and will do. In fact, I am already doing. And this is: dont touch or read any of the magazines or reading material in the doctors or dentists office. Think about it. Almost to a person (or a child), the sick pick up a magazine to read while they are waiting for their turn with the doctor. They sneeze, cough and even blow their noses while touching those periodicals. And even if they dont actually let loose their sickly fluids, they have them already on their hands and when they touch the magazines, etc., they transfer whatever germs they have right to the paper. (And you know those toys that are set out to keep the little children occupied? They are a germ factory, too. Just think about it.) When the staff cleans and sanitizes their office, you can be sure that they clean the toilets, but do you think that they ever clean the reading materials and the toys? I seriously doubt it. Most of them have a lot to do and I bet they have never even thought about the stuff in the waiting room that is put out to occupy their patients while they wait their turn. Do I have a solution? Of course, I do! First, dont touch any of their stuff and dont let your children play am always surprised when I hear that there are so many people who actually elect not to get a flu shot! In my opinion, it is like electing not to get the polio vaccine. I think that we are so lucky to be able to get a vaccine that either prevents the latest flu or at least, if you get it you wont

in that germ-infested play area. And number two is really easier. Bring your own stuff to read and bring a small bag of toys for the kids. Isnt that simple? Well, think about it. It is an easy way to protect yourself and your family. And if you sit on their toilet while reading your own stuff, you are probably on the most germ-free seat in the office. I am not one that uses hand sanitizers on a regular basis. But I The Montpelier Kiwanis Club do wash my hands a lot, and in the past I thought that was good enough. However, I have a friend who sent me for Christmas four little bottles of Purell hand sanitizer, which I should mention she uses constantly throughout the day. And because she sent them and I have them at hand, I have taken to using them. I dont know if they really work, but I do know that I havent even had a cold this winter. Malcolm, on the other hand, has been sick as a dog! But if you dont have any sanitizer at hand (get it? at hand) if you look, you will find that many of the places you shop and work will have a big bottle of sanitizer for the use of the public, right where you check out or congregate. It feels nice when you rub it on your hands and there is a good chance that it actually works to keep your hands germ-free. So, give it a try. If you read this column regularly, you will remember that I am not one that believes in or encourages anyone to keep a germ-free house. I believe that children who live with ordinary germs will be tolerant to germs and get sick a lot less than their germ-free friends. A house that is constantly being cleaned of any and all Or Toll Free 1-800-639-9753 germs is a hazard, at least in my opinion. I am a firm believer of the old adage of you have to eat a peck of dirt before you die, but using reasonable caution is another thing. Washing your hands Central Vermonts Newspaper often and using sanitizer when and wherever it is available is the common sense thing to do. And if you are able to avoid the flu, good for you! Think about those orphan trains that crisscrossed Vermont in the CLASSIFIEDS good old days, and you will learn how the flu destroyed so many families and lives. But in 2013 we are a lot more educated on how 403 U.S. Route 302 - Berlin to avoid the flu and how to live through the epidemic. So get a Barre, Vermont 05641 shot and/or at least do what you can to avoid getting it at all. You dont have to be paranoid but you do have to be cautious. And always remember, spring is not far away! ORLEANS SOUTHWEST SUPERVISORY UNION

Program. During lunch, participants watched Louder Than a Bomb, a powerful documentary following four Chicago youth competing in a slam poetry competition. The movie illustrates what youth can do when they have the space, motivation, and peer and adult support to express themselves. After the film Geoff Hewitt, Vermonts Slam Poet Laureate, led participants in a writing workshop. Mr. Hewitt said, I think we all enjoyed Louder Than a Bomb, which shows that poetry and spirit, humor and pathos, deserve verbal expression, and young people often say it best.

While she taught at Spaulding, she served as a mentor and guide to thousands of students. Her ability to remember their names, skills and passions endeared her to generations of Spaulding graduates. A voracious reader and talented writer, Marty loved meeting with her several book groups and poetry circles. She was always reading a new novel and welcomed conversations with friends and family members about the meanings she found in literature, drama and visual art. She wrote a book of poems on love, nature, family and finitude, that she distributed to those close to her.

According to conservative estimates, she created roughly 5,000 baby sweaters in a 25-year knitting career. Observers noted that Marty would not stop until all babies were sufficiently warmed. Her joy for living was manifested in her poetry and crafts, but also in her love of travel and foreign languages. She lived as a student in Austria and later with her family in Poland and also again, in Austria. She traveled throughout the U. S. and to Puerto Rico. She was an avid and talented skier, as well as a great dancer and singer, active in her church choir and in an annual singing of the "Messiah." She will be very dearly missed by her husband and two sons, her daughter-in-law, her nieces, nephews and granddaughter, by her many loving friends and by generations of former students.

tary school in Berlin Corners, then on to Montpelier High School where he loved working in drama and stage set construction and lighting. He spent hours building elaborate sets, probably not realizing that he would become an exceptional finish carpenter later in life. It was in high school that Brad developed his love of guitar. He was given his first guitar at age 16 and practiced daily. Deaf in his right ear, he would tilt his head to favor his left side, and played by his good ear, copying riffs from the blues rockers of the time. Brad graduated high school in 1970. In 1971, he attended UVM, majoring in English. Brad worked in the stage shop at UVM's newly constructed Royall Tyler Theatre, further honing his creativity in woodworking. In 1975, Brad ventured off to Aspen, Colo., with a good friend to ski the slopes, enjoy the outdoors and work in carpentry. In 1978, he went to Vail to remodel and staff a new ski shop, returning to Aspen in 1980. In 1986, Brad returned to Vermont, living in Essex renovating a house for his parents. He then moved to Waterbury to continue his love of carpentry and playing guitar. Brad worked on and built several houses, additions and renovations, all enhanced by his fine eye for detail, exceptional craftsmanship and knowledge of period correctness. Those who were fortunate enough to have him work on their homes have a long-lasting reminder of his talent. In 1998, Brad moved to East Haven, where his life was enriched by Alcoholics Anonymous, embracing changes that allowed him to completely overcome his struggles. Along with his success in the program, Brad gained a huge new family, which he embraced without reservation. He loved going to meetings, sharing his years of success with his typical wit and superior sense of humor. Brad often drove the 80 miles back to the Mad River Valley to work his carpentry magic on projects that fulfilled his creative need. Brad was a gentle soul who will be greatly missed by everyone he touched. BALDWIN, MAXINE GAIL, 77, died January 29, at Kindred Transitional Care and Rehab Center in Burlington.

Beginning in 2013, annual filing of homestead declarations will be required once again. All eligible property owners must file homestead declarations by the due date for filing Vermont income tax returns, which is April 15 for this year. This is a change to the law. Previously, property owners had to declare their homestead once unless there was a change in ownership or status of the property. In Vermont, all property is subject to education property tax. Property is considered nonresidential until it is claimed as the owners homestead. A property owner must file a homestead declaration if the owner: 1) owns and occupies the property as his or her primary residence and 2) is domiciled in Vermont. Filing your homestead declaration is critical to paying the correct amount of tax, said Mary Peterson, commissioner of taxes. Therefore, the Department of Taxes is making every effort to inform property owners about the change in the law, so that they will file their homestead declarations by the deadline, April 15. Owners of homestead property acquired as of April 1 must file by the April 15 deadline. Late filing will be accepted through Oct.

Homestead Declarations to Be Filed Annually Beginning in 2013

15 of each year, but a late filing penalty will apply. For those seeking a property tax adjustment, a homestead declaration must be filed in order to file for the adjustment. To file a homestead declaration, the Vermont Department of Taxes encourages electronic filing as it is fast and convenient, but property owners also may file by submitting Vermont form HS-122 by mail or in person. Both electronic filing and form HS-122 may be found online at the Department of Taxes website, www.tax.vermont.gov. To file, residents need their School Property Account Number (SPAN) printed on the property tax bill, the property owners social security number, and the code of the Vermont school district in which the property is located. The school code usually can be found on the property tax bill, but it is also available on the Department of Taxes website. For more information on the homestead declaration, visit www. tax.vermont.gov or contact the Vermont Department of Taxes at (802) 828-2865 or (866) 828-2865 (toll-free in Vermont).

INCOME TAX SERVICES

By now most of us have received our W-2s and 1099s and need to start thinking about getting our income taxes completed for 2012. For some this is an easy process, but for others, not so simple, especially if it means owing the IRS. Many people who have a small amount of income may not be required to file income taxes. However, they also may not be aware of their possible eligibility for the Earned Income Tax Credit, more commonly known as EITC. EITC is a federal income tax credit designed for people who work, but dont earn that much money. For those who qualify, it can be worth up to $5,000 in either a credit to taxes owed or as a refund. The IRS estimates that 1 in 4 people who qualify do not file for this credit. Millions of dollars go unclaimed each year. Green Mountain United Way partners with the United Ways of Vermont and the IRS to promote EITC to ensure that residents in Vermont are receiving the credits for which they are eligible. Do you qualify? You may if your earned income in 2012 was:

n n n

$13,980 (or $19,190 married filing jointly) with no qualifying children; $36,920 (or $42,130 married filing jointly) with one qualifying child; $41,952 (or $47,162 married filing jointly) with two qualifying children; $45,060 (or $50,270 married filing jointly) with three or more qualifying children. To receive the EITC credit, you must file income taxes and must complete the proper EITC form. There are other restrictions that may apply. To read a full explanation of this program, please visit www.gmunitedway.org/finlit.shtml or go to www.irs.gov/eitc. This could be the year when you receive a sizeable refund making it possible for you to pay off a debt, easing the burden of utility bills, or starting that emergency savings fund youve been thinking about. Be sure to ask your tax preparer if you qualify, or call GMUW for more information at 802-229-9532.

Taxpayers looking for their Vermont tax forms may obtain them online at the Vermont Department of Taxes website at www.tax.vermont.gov. The Personal Income Tax Return Booklet, instructions, tax tables and other helpful information may be downloaded and printed from the Forms section of the departments website. Another option for taxpayers is to file state tax returns electronically through Vermont e-file, also available on the departments website. Printed forms will be distributed later than usual in early February due to the delay in the federal tax forms caused by the fiscal cliff legislation. They will be available through many town clerk offices, libraries and post offices. Taxpayers also may request forms by calling (802) 828-2515 or emailing taxforms@state.vt.us.

The WORLD

Moving in together is something typically associated with young couples, but more and more unmarried men and women over the age of 50 are choosing to cohabitate. According to an analysis of 2012 U.S. Census data conducted by the Performance Reference Bureau, roughly 10 percent of the 15.3 million opposite-sex unmarried cohabiting partners in the United States are between the ages of 55 and 64, while 15 percent are between the ages of 45 and 54. Such figures indicate that living together as an unmarried couple is no longer exclusive to younger couples. The incentives for older, unmarried couples to cohabitate are similar to those for younger ones, but older couples should heed a few financial pointers before deciding to move in together. * Iron out the financial details ahead of time. Young couples who move in together often do so as a precursor to getting married. Such couples do not typically have much in the way of financial assets and, as a result, do not need to come to any formal agreement regarding their finances. Older couples, however, might be bringing a more substantial financial portfolio into the relationship, and these finances can complicate matters. Before moving in together, older couples should document their finances and how household expenses, including a mortgage if one exists, will be paid. Decisions regarding who will receive the tax breaks you might be eligible for when paying a mortgage should also be considered. Documenting your financial situation can protect your assets should you break up. If these arrangements are not documented, unmarried couples who break up could find themselves in a contentious financial battle not unlike couples going through a divorce. * Maintain some financial independence. Older, unmarried men and women who choose to cohabitate with their partners should still maintain some financial independence after moving in together. A joint checking or savings account might work down the road, but initially keep these accounts separate to avoid any disputes. Keep paying your own bills, including car payments and credit cards, at the onset as well. * Update certain documents and policies. Upon your death, a partner with whom you cohabitate does not have the same legal rights of inheritance as would a spouse. As a result, its important for

Financial Pointers For Older, Unmarried Couples

n n n

unmarried individuals who cohabitate with their partners to update their wills, especially if they have been cohabitating for an extended period of time and want their partner to be taken care of in case of their death. In addition to updating information regarding beneficiaries, older men and women might want to update certain information regarding their health, like who should take legal responsibility for medical decisions should one partner become incapacitated. In addition to updating your will, update any existing life insurance policies and retirement benefits to include your partner if you so desire. * Discuss any changes with your family, especially any children. When you make changes to your will, those changes will affect your beneficiaries. Upon making these changes, discuss them with your existing beneficiaries so your partner does not have to deal with relatives whose feelings might be hurt upon your death. This might not be an easy discussion, but you will want your partner to have your family as a support system upon your death. Older, unmarried couples are choosing to cohabitate more and more. While the incentives to doing so are numerous, there are some precautionary measures couples should take before moving in together.

The Vermont Department of Health has developed a free online service that will make it easier for owners and managers of pre1978 rental housing to comply with essential maintenance practices mandated by the Vermont Lead Law. The law requires that owners of rental housing and child care facilities built before 1978 take certain specific steps to keep the property lead safe. Compliance statements have to be filed annually, and a copy of the statement provided to tenants. As the database grows, Vermonters will be able to check on the status of a property and make sure it is in compliance. The State of Vermont strengthened its lead poisoning prevention laws during the 2007-2008 legislative session to protect young children from exposure to lead. Young children are at highest risk because they can put paint chips or dust into their mouth as they touch and explore inside and outside a home. Exposure to lead can have lifelong health effects such as lown n n

ering a childs IQ, said Health Commissioner Harry Chen, MD. Lead dust exposure for adults can cause high blood pressure, increase the risk of miscarriage for pregnant women, and result in decreased fertility in men. Vermont has one of the oldest housing stocks in the nation. About 70 percent of homes were built before 1978, the year lead in house paint was banned. The new system will make it even easier for landlords to comply with the lead law, said Vermont Attorney General William H. Sorrell. More landlords complying with the law means more Vermonters in safe rental housing. If property owners and managers have questions about this new system, or a renter believes a compliance statement should be filed for a particular property, email EmpCompliance@state.vt.us, or call (802) 865-7786. Landlords and property managers can file a compliance statement at: https://secure.vermont.gov/VDH/emp/

Healthy Community Classes

Eat for Life

Losing some weight is a goal for many people regardless of age. While youngsters and young adults might be able to get away with a few extra pounds without suffering any significant consequences, older adults carrying some extra weight might be putting their overall health at considerable risk. Shedding weight after the age of 50 is not always easy. As a person ages, muscle mass tends to dwindle while body fat has a tendency to increase. Since fat burns fewer calories than muscle, weight gain as a person ages is bound to happen. But that doesnt mean such weight gain is inevitable. In fact, men and women willing to make certain changes with regard to diet and exercise can shed pounds after 50 while preventing future weight gain. Diet Men and women need fewer calories as they age. For example, men and women in their 40s may need as many as 200 calories more per day than they will when they reach their 50s. Counting calories might seem difficult, so men and women in their 50s and older who dont think they can count calories can try to eat more low-calorie foods like fruits, vegetables and whole grains. Consuming fewer calories often requires changing dietary habits, not only with regard to what youre eating but also how youre eating and even how you shop for food. Men and women used to dining out for lunch every day can start bringing their own lunches so they can gain greater control of their daily caloric intake. For those who find theyre frequently too exhausted to cook each night, they can prepare meals in advance to have healthy, homemade meals waiting instead of always ordering takeout or delivery. When shopping for food, people should avoid doing so on an empty stomach so theyre less inclined to buy unhealthy snacks.

Save-the-date cards do more than let guests know when youre getting hitched. The cards are a preliminary way to keep guests informed and let them know they are, in fact, on the guest list. These cards havent always been so popular, but have risen in popularity due to longer engagement periods, a growing number of destination weddings and the growing number of couples with guests from all over the country, if not the world. Considering people often plan business trips, vacations and other excursions several months in advance, save-the-date cards help secure a greater number of attendees at your wedding. Save-the-date announcements can vary in many ways. They may be postcards or magnets that can be attached to a refrigerator door. If you desire a cohesive theme to your wedding stationery, select the save-the-date cards at the same time you choose your wedding invitations. This way you can ensure that either the patterns, fonts, colors, or style of the cards will match. It will also help convey the tone of the wedding. Guests often take their cues regarding the level of formality of the wedding from the type of stationery couples choose. When to send out the save-the-date announcements is important as well. As a general rule of thumb, it is wise to mail out the cards 6 months in advance for a standard wedding. If the wedding requires travel or extended overnight accommodations, you may want to mail them out 8 months to a year in advance to give guests the time to investigate flight costs and hotel arrangements. A wedding also may necessitate planning a vacation or personal time off

Save-The-Date Card Etiquette

from work. Therefore, ample advanced notice is advisable. Be sure to make your guest list in advance of sending out savethe-date cards. Everyone who receives a card should also be sent an invitation prior to the wedding. Remember to include any members of your planned wedding party in the list of recipients. Just because a person has verbally confirmed attendance at your wedding doesnt mean they should be excluded from subsequent announcements. Guests may talk to one another and it is best to avoid hurt feelings and any added drama before the wedding by treating everyone equally. Be sure to include the wedding date, your names and the location of the wedding on the save-the-date cards. You do not need to offer RSVP information or detailed specifics at this time. You may want to include a Web site URL on the card so guests can check it frequently for updates on wedding information. Be sure to also include that a formal invitation will follow at a later date. You do not want to cause confusion by having guests think that the savethe-date card is the actual invitation. Also, make sure you address the save-the-date cards correctly to show your intentions with respect to guest invites. For example, be clear about whether children will be invited and whether a boyfriend/girlfriend or another guest can tag along. Although save-the-date cards are not a necessity, they have become a popular part of wedding planning to eliminate confusion about invitations as well as help guests plan time off for your wedding.

Serves 6 to 8 Cake 1 cup egg whites Pinch of salt 1 teaspoon salt 11/4 cups sugar 1 teaspoon cream of tartar 1 teaspoon vanilla extract 1 cup flour 1/3 cup pitted and finely chopped fresh sweet cherries, divided Cheesecake Filling 16 ounces cream cheese, softened

Chocolate Cherry Cheesecake Trifle

Preheat oven to 325 F. To prepare the cake, with an electric mixer, beat egg whites with salt and cream of tartar until they begin to foam. Add sugar and beat until stiff peaks form. Mix in vanilla. Carefully fold in flour. Pour half of the batter into an ungreased 9-inch tube pan and top with half of the chopped cherries. Pour in the remaining batter and sprinkle on the remaining cherries. Bake for 50 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean. Let cool before removing from the pan. To prepare the filling, blend cream cheese and sugar with an electric mixer until smooth. Add half-and-half and pureed cherries. To assemble, cut the cake into 1-inch cubes. In a trifle dish, place an even layer of cake cubes and cheesecake filling. Sprinkle with chopped cherries and shaved chocolate. Repeat layers until the trifle dish is full, finishing with whipped cream and the remaining cherries and chocolate on top.

The story of Valentines Day begins in the third century. The oppressive Roman emperor, Claudius, ordered all Romans to worship 12 gods, but Valentinus was dedicated to the ideals of Christ. Not even the threat of death could keep him from practicing his beliefs. He was arrested and imprisoned. During the last weeks of Valentinus life, a remarkable thing happened. Seeing that he was a man of learning, the jailer asked whether his daughter Julia might be brought to Valentinus for lessons. She had been blind since birth. Valentinus read stories of Romes history to her. He taught her arithmetic, and he told her about God. She saw the world through his eyes, trusted in his wisdom and found comfort in his quiet strength. Valentinus, does God really hear our prayers? Julia asked one day. Yes, my child, He hears each one, he replied. Do you know what I pray for every morning and every night? I pray that I might see. I want so much to see everything youve told me about. God does what is best for us if we will only believe in Him, Valentinus said. Oh, Valentinus, I do believe, Julia said fervently. I do! She knelt and grasped his hand. They sat quietly together, each praying. Suddenly there was a brilliant light in the prison cell. Radiant, Julia cried, Valentinus, I can see! I can see! Praise to God, Valentinus exclaimed. On the eve of his death, Valentinus wrote one last note to Julia, urging her to stay close to God, and he signed it From Your Valentine. He was executed the next day, Feb. 14, 270 A.D., and buried at what is now the Church of Praxedes in Rome. It is said that Julia planted a pinkblossomed almond tree near his grave. Today, the almond tree remains a symbol of abiding love and friendship. On each Feb. 14, St. Valentines Day, messages of affection and love are exchanged around the world.

Starting this Thursday, Plainfield Little Theatre presents the world premiere production of a new play by Vermont playwright, Tom Blachly. Edwinas Folly will be presented on February 7, 8, 9, 14, 15, and 16 at 7pm, at the Union Elementary School Auditorium in Montpelier. Tickets are $15 general admission, $12 for students and seniors, and $10 for children 12 and under. The matriarch of a small rural community theatre in Vermont has died, and her grown children and the actors are left to pick up the pieces. Personalities and family dynamics clash in this intimate drama. Edwinas Folly is directed by the playwright and stars local Vermont actors (left to right): Patti Casey, Nicholas Hecht, Elizabeth Wilcox, Brooke Pearson, Ben Scotch, Ellen Keene, and Rachel Isaacs-Falbel. For ticket reservations and more information call 426-3955 or email blachly@together.net.

Vermont Works for Women (VWW) is proud to present Labor of Love, a multi-media exhibit recognizing and honoring Vermont women who are passionate about their work, who are an inspiration to others, and who exemplify excellence in their field. The 29 honorees come from all parts of Vermont. They are farmers, doctors, tattoo artists, college presidents, electricians, and general store clerks. They hail from Newport to Vernon. They are young and young-at-heart, wellknown and not. The Governor has signaled that we must do more to realize the full potential of our future workforce, notes VWW executive director Tiffany Bluemle. One of the first steps we can take as mothers and fathers, teachers and youth workers, neighbors and friends is to talk about work more often, more deliberately. In speaking with honorees Ive been struck by how few said theyd talked much, or been asked much, about their careers. Think of the great loss that this implies! If were lucky, well find work about which we are passionate, in which we can both lose and find ourselves. But more often, the choices we make are made over time, as a result of experience and conversation. By featuring professionals of all stripes, whose journeys were not necessarily straightforward, Labor of Love provides a springboard for the

Exhibit on Women and Work Debuts at the Statehouse

kinds of conversations that are vital to shaping young aspirations. Labor of Love features portraits by Mary Claire Carroll in combination with short excerpts from interviews conducted by young women from around Vermont and produced by the Vermont Folklife Center. The project was made possible through support from the Vermont Womens Fund and FairPoint Communications. Learn more about the exhibit online at www.vtworksforwomen.org/laboroflove. It will be on display in the statehouse cafeteria through February 28th. An opening reception is scheduled for February 5th, from 3:30pm to 5pm, and will feature brief remarks by three honorees: Brenda Torpy, Chief Executive Officer of Champlain Housing Trust; Jan Ruta, master electrician; and Michelle Tarryk, Executive Director, Northeast Kingdom Learning Center. Refreshments will be provided by FRESH Food, a culinary training program operated by Vermont Works for Women in Winooski. Vermont Works for Women helps women and girls recognize their potential and explore, pursue and excel in work that leads to economic independence.

ALL PROGRAMING SUBJECT TO CHANGE WITHOUT NOTICE

Waterbury Rotary once again offers Pie for Breakfast! Its almost Valentines Day, so why not take your sweetie out for an all-you-can- eat pie benefit on Saturday, February 9th from 8am to 11am at the American Legion on Stowe Street in Waterbury. The cost is only $7.00/adult or $5.00/child 10 & under. All proceeds from this event will support Rotarys Youth Exchange Program. The Youth Exchange is a Rotary sponsored program that supports opportunities for local students to experience other cultures worldwide, while sharing our culture with students from other nations. There are two types of exchanges that are available; short-term, which is a summer program where the exchange lasts for 3 to 4 weeks, and long-term, which encompasses a full school year. Local students who have participated in the cultural exchanges have had life-changing experiences. They have forged lifelong relationships, and a love for new experiences, travel, and cultural diversity. Following Pie for Breakfast there will be a Youth Exchange meeting, where local youth will find out what country they will be going to on exchange. Any student who is interested in a future exchange is encouraged to stay and learn more about the program.

Vermont Fish & Wildlifes Ali Thomas trains environmental educators about birds in a recent Flying WILD program. Photo by Tom Rogers, VT Fish & Wildlife Department.

Children have become increasingly disconnected with nature. According to the Children in Nature Network, most children can easily identify hundreds of corporate logos but cannot identify more than a handful of the plants and animals in their own backyard. The Vermont Fish & Wildlife Department is giving a new type of workshop that aims to combat this trend and reconnect Vermonts young children with nature. The program, entitled Growing Up WILD: Exploring Nature with Young Children, teaches early childhood educators how to incorporate nature and wildlife into their daily lesson plans. This project is modeled on three similar programs offered by the Fish & Wildlife Department, Project WILD, Flying WILD, and Aquatic WILD. Were building on the success of our other WILD training workshops said Ali Thomas, education coordinator for the Fish & Wildlife Department. Those projects were designed for teachers and environmental educators teaching K-12 students, while the new Growing Up WILD program is geared towards curriculum for younger children. Growing Up WILD was developed with the vision of expanding the culture of early childhood education to embrace learning in the outdoors. According to the programs website, Growing Up WILD builds on childrens sense of wonder about nature and invites them to explore wildlife and the world around them. The programs activities are fun and easy, added Thomas. They creatively address concepts in science, physical education, and literature though activities such as outdoor explorations and art projects. Whether youre a school teacher or an educator at a nature center, this guide is an effective teaching resource in any setting. Growing Up WILD was developed by a national nonprofit organization, the Council for Environmental Education (CEE). Funds to create the program came from a grant awarded to CEE by the Environmental Protection Agency with the goal of strengthening efforts to connect young children to nature, particularly with diverse audiences. For more information, visit www.projectwild. org/growingupwild.html. To schedule a workshop, contact Ali Thomas at 802-371-9975 or alison.thomas@state.vt.us.

Growing Up Wild Program Connects Children with Nature

Atlas of Vermont Life to Inventory Every Living Thing in Vermont

Vermonters can start the new year with a resolution to join one of the most ambitious conservation projects the state has ever seen: an inventory of every living thing in Vermont. The Atlas of Vermont Life will collect sightings from citizen naturalists and professional biologists and present them online in the form of maps, photos, and even social networking. From mushrooms to maples, moose to microorganisms, everything counts. One of the most amazing things about the nature of Vermont is how little we know, said Kent McFarland, senior conservation biologist at the Vermont Center for Ecostudies (VCE), which officially launched the project on January 1. The atlas will generate excitement, discoveries and greater understanding of biodiversity across the state. Anyone can join or view the atlas project at: www.inaturalist. org/projects/atlas-of-vermont-life/ Decades will pass before the atlas is complete; it may never actually reveal every last species. But it is expected to grow into the most comprehensive accounting of life in Vermont. It appears to be the first attempt to document each and every plant, animal and otherwise in an entire state. VCE, based in Norwich, has a track record of enlisting citizens for science, creating atlases of bird, butterfly and bumblebee distribution across Vermont. The new on-line atlas project extends citizen discovery to everything from common plants to obscure lichens, even still undiscovered species such as microscopic animals called waterbears or different kinds of snow fleas. Ultimately the atlas will generate research-grade data to help citizens and scientists discover, track and conserve Vermonts biodiversity. McFarland says Vermonters cannot fully appreciate and conserve what lives in this state without a more comprehensive inventory of life. Vermont needs to discover more about whats here and where it is, said McFarland. This may seem to be an odd analogy, but we should be like big, national box-store chain with an inventory of every product in the warehouse. The Atlas of Vermont Life website allows participants to enter the name of a species they discover, its exact location and an optional photograph. It also allows experts to corroborate or correct sightings, or even identify a photo of some unknown species. VCE already runs an online bird inventory project called Vermont eBird and will soon launch a similar butterfly project called Vermont eButterfly. The new Atlas of Vermont Life will accept any species, rare or common, from anyone who joins its online community. We often hear about biologists cataloging the biodiversity living on a single tree in some far-flung tropical forest, said McFarland, but rarely do we investigate the complete diversity here at home.

Citizen naturalists invited to submit sightings from nature

By Tom Herzig ts hard work that Bill McKibben has taken on since he first wrote about the greenhouse effect and mankinds influence on nature in 1989. Hes been sounding the alarm and telling the citizenry, politicians and corporations what they dont want to hear. Namely, that human consumption of fossil fuels continues to heat the planet and change the climate in catastrophic, possibly irreversible, ways. As reported by NASA and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), the five warmest years on record have occurred since 2005. 2012 was the 10th warmest year recorded. 2010 tops the list. McKibben is an author, environmental activist and Middlebury College educator. Time Magazine proclaimed him the planets best green journalist. The Burlington Free Press named him 2012 Vermonter of the Year. Environmentally speaking, he could be the doctor that meets you in the waiting room and breaks the news that your loved ones condition is critical and extraordinary procedures need to be taken. He has referred to himself as a professional bummer-outer. Last week, McKibben addressed a joint session of the Legislature and managed to weave some humor and heartfelt affection for Vermont into his presentation while expressing his opinion that 1) climate change is the biggest challenge by far that humans have ever faced 2) there is a tendency at every important but difficult crossroad to pretend that its not really there. This is my second favorite governmental body, McKibben told his audience. Ripton town meeting being the first. Some of the countrys leading environmental legislators are right here. McKibben freely admits that whatever choices Vermonters make individually and collectively, will not have a big impact on the global environment. In a sense, what Vermont does is insignificant, he said. What any one place does by itself is insignificant on a global scale - which means everyone has to step up, Vermont included. And of course we do have something of a tradition of leadership on important issues. The legislature played a small but noble role in 2011 by banning fracking, for instance. If some places are wise enough to take a leadership position, not only will they be setting themselves up more wisely for the century now dawning, theyll also at least be running the possibility of providing the example to others. The legislatures focus on climate and energy issues should, in McKibbens opinion, be on adopting a new thermal efficiency program to better insulate Vermont buildings, banning the flow of tar sands oil from Canada through a Vermont pipeline and seeing to it that state pension funds and the University of Vermont endowment are divested of fossil fuel related investments. Its not all right to deny climate change, he said. Half the ice cap Neil Armstrong saw from space is gone. We need a way to say were no longer comfortable with big oils political influence. We waste dollars pouring heat through under-insulated hous-

Denial Wont Help Us Ride Out Global Warming

es, McKibben said. Really tight houses would improve our options. Its high time Vermonters stop heating outdoors. Windpower critics are right when they say its not a silver bullet, but how about silver buckshot? McKibben asked. I know this is one of the most contentious topics. Its okay to strive to protect ridgelines. But we dont have three years to spend on a timeout. We should choose sites wisely and share the benefits. I continue to hope Ill see wind turbines on my Middlebury mountaintops someday. Their integrity and beauty is most threatened by climate change. Theres no going back, no use crying about it, McKibben said. Just as we must adapt to that which we cant prevent, we need to focus on preventing that which we cant adapt to. Fifty years hence, youll be judged by how, as a political body, you responded to this crisis. McKibben is the co-founder and chairman of 350.org, a global grassroots campaign striving to solve the climate crisis. The name refers to the level of carbon dioxide, 350 parts per million of volume measured, prevailing scientific opinion specifies as necessary to preserve the planets climate. The present level is 392 parts per million. McKibben went on a 21-city build-a-movement Do the Math tour last fall to deliver the message that, by the calculations he holds to be true, fossil fuel corporations and countries such as Kuwait and Venezuela have five times more oil and coal and gas in known reserves than climate scientists think is safe to burn. In his view, the energy companies are winning, and winning easily. Because theyre the most profitable business the world has ever seen, they have enormous influence. And because all they need to do is delay, so far theyve barely even been bothered by environmentalists. Further information about potential climate change solutions is available on the websites 350.org; mn350.org; GoFossilFree.org.

Q: At a recent garage sale, I purchased a dozen copies of Capt. Billys Whiz Bang, a humor magazine from the 1920s. I am not familiar with this publication and wonder if you can tell me more about it. -- Hank, Albuquerque, N.M. A: Capt. Billys Whiz Bang began publication in 1919 and continued until the 1930s. The title, Whiz Bang, was taken from the nickname for a World War I artillery shell. Edited by Capt. Wilford Fawcett, the publication was originally distributed to hospitalized veterans, but was so popular it soon gained a national readership. It was one of the most popular humor magazines of the 1920s, with a circulation reaching more than 1 million copies each month. Since it was printed on pulp paper, copies in good condition are difficult to find and often sell in the $15 to $25 range. *** Q: I have several pieces of cut glass and am curious about current values. -- Linda, Sioux Falls, S.D. A: Even though cut glass has been produced since ancient times, most of the pieces found in antique shops and in private collections were made during a 25-year period beginning in about 1880. Condition,

Whiz Bang

pattern and signatures of craftsmen can add to the value of a piece. Since I dont know the pattern of your glass pieces, I cant really help you much more than I have. There are several excellent antique dealers in your city, and you might show your pieces to them for their opinion. You also might invest in a good price guide. Several excellent ones are available at www.amazon.com. *** Q: I have a copy of Charles Dickens A Christmas Carol published by Dodd, Mead & Company in 1935. It is illustrated by H.M. Brock. I am curious about how much it is worth. -- Grimes, Kokomo, Ind. A: I found a copy of this edition of A Christmas Carol at The Bookstall, www.bookstall.com, for $55. Depending on the condition of the one you have, it could be worth a little more or a little less. Keep in mind that what something is priced at and what it eventually sells for are sometimes two different things. Write to Larry Cox in care of King Features Weekly Service, P.O.

TOOLS/MACHINERY

Q: During the last cold snap, the cold water pipe leading By Samantha to my garages utiliMazzotta ty sink froze and broke. Fortunately, there was no water damage. Is it possible to fix the pipe myself? -- Chet in Springfield, Mass. A: Depending on the location of the pipe break, repairing it can be fairly straightforward. The good thing is that its a nonessential fixture -unlike, say, pipes leading to the kitchen or bathroom -- and so you have the choice of either fixing it right away or shutting off water to that section of the pipe run until the weather gets warmer. A broken pipe needs to be replaced. It can be patched, but those quick fixes break down in short period of time. For the repair, youll need a pipe cutter, a length of replacement pipe of the same diameter and material as the original pipe, sandpaper or steel wool, and a round wire brush. If you plan to solder the replacement, youll need a handheld propane torch, flux (a paste that helps solder spread evenly) and pipe solder. If you dont want to solder, or cant do it safely, youll need to buy two compression fittings, one for each side of the replacement pipe. Cutting and preparing the pipe is the same. Ultimate Handyman has a short video detailing how to use compression fittings here: http:// www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_ embedded&v=-9c5LWFI_M4. Make sure the water supply to the pipe is turned off. Mark the pipe on both sides of the break. Fit the adjustable pipe cutter around the first mark, tighten, and rotate the tool around the pipe three or four times to achieve a smooth, straight cut. Repeat on the other side. You may need to finish the cut with a few swipes of a

hacksaw, but the pipe section should detach pretty cleanly. Take the section to the home-improvement store to find the correct replacement pipe and fittings. Use the round wire brush, sandpaper or steel wool to scrub away metal burrs left by the cut and to smooth the pipe ends. Next, test the fittings to make sure both the remaining and replacement pipe will fit. The connections should be pretty tight even without flux and solder. Apply flux to the ends of the pipe using a small brush to spread it evenly, about 1 inch along the pipe. Slide the pipe into the fittings, twisting to spread the flux more, then slide the replacement pipe and fittings into place on the pipe run. Uncoil about 9 inches of solder. Bend the first 2 inches at a 90-degree angle, which gives you more control. Light the propane torch and briefly heat both sides of the first fitting, about 5 seconds each side, so that the fitting heats evenly. To see if the fitting is heated correctly, touch the bent end of the solder to the fitting; if the solder melts, its go time. Working quickly, insert a half-inch or more of solder into the joint between the fitting and the pipe. The heated fitting will melt the solder and draw it into the joint so that just a thin bead is still visible. (This may take a couple of tries if its your first time.) Being careful not to burn yourself, use a rag to quickly wipe away excess solder. Complete soldering all the joints and let the pipes cool completely. Then, open the tap on the utility sink and slowly turn on the water supply, monitoring the new section for leaks around the fittings. If a leak is evident youll need to disconnect everything and redo it. HOME TIP: Propane torches should be used only in well-ventilated areas. Keep flammable items away from the torch.

COPPER

DEAR GROSSED OUT: Coughing up the occasional hairball isnt unusual for most cats, but if it seems to be happening more frequently, getting a professional opinion is important. Schedule a checkup for Chester with his veterinarian, and bring along the next hairball (or two) he coughs up in the meantime. The vet can check for any underlying condition, as well as check the hairball for traces of blood, plants or other items of concern. The vet will make sure Chesters general health is good for his age (or not), and can offer suggestions and possibly medication to reduce the frequency at which your cat is horking up hairballs. Hairballs are formed due to a cats habit of cleaning its fur with its tongue. The rough tongue tends to pick up stray hairs and dander, which the cat swallows. Most of the time, this hair passes through the digestive tract without a problem. But occasionally this does not happen, and the cat regurgitates the hair (and other stuff matted into it). If Chester gets an otherwise clean bill of health, the vet probably will recommend using a hairball preventative. The most common type is a petroleum jelly-based treat that is licked off the end of your finger. Chewable hairball treats also are available; these contain mineral oil and should be given sparingly. Hairball control cat foods contain extra fiber (usually cellulose) to help push excess hair through the digestive tract.

November and December are the two most cloudiness months. This has lots to do with the Great Lakes being warmed over in the summer reaching the last few years easily into the low and mid 70s, and then gradually falling in the Fall and into the first half of winter. Lake Effect plumes in the late Fall and early Winter can sometimes equal a big synoptic type storm in terms of accumulation of snow in the nearby Green Mountains. Most of the trajectories that make snow come off the Great Lakes of Ontario, and Huron, Georgian Bay. This is a moisture source than usually delivers big during the first part of winter. By the time we move into the month of February, the lakes become much less of a source for moisture with only about half its former as we slide through February and into March. Thus westerly winds this time of year bring drier conditions than in previous months, with less cloud cover and more sunshine. But, why? The drier streams of air coming from land locked iced over sources are one reason, resembling more a dry arctic desert distinction. Therefore, this week will see sunshine dispersed between flare ups of flurries and lighter accumulating snows. The other part of this reasoning has to do with Great Lake water temperatures having cooled into the low and mid 30s than just two months previous, when lake effect is much more potent as a source of moisture. Temperature differential is one factor that supports large plumes of moisture in the late Fall and first half of Winter, the problem is later in the season, the Lakes to our west are still important moisture sources but lack that differential. Thus increasingly common is when it gets colder it get much more sunnier. This week will be no exception. Make-up Snows Friday! A hybrid Noreaster type system was being consistently modeled in a favorable track to bring about 18 hours of snowfall to the region Thursday night and into Friday. This makes Friday a local powder day where from about 4 to 8 inches looked reasonable. Perhaps a chance heavier snows approaching a foot in the mountains was a possibility. Historically this year weather system have been looking impressive at day 5, only to be half of themselves and sometimes go wide right out to sea in reality. Thus my confidence for a huge snowfall is tempered considerably. Snow covered roads in any event were a good bet late in the week supported by moderate density and moisture or the measurement of slipperiness will be more so than in the drier dust-ups we dealt with earlier in the week. Moist Warm Shot Next Week Another warm up may bring Wet Snow and a mixed bag of precipitation types to the region next Tuesday the 12th of February. This warm up should have loads of moisture, the European ensemble modeling have been keeping temperatures cold enough to support snow along the northern tier of Vermont which could even be heavy, but mixed precip types in the greater Barre-Montpelier area and points south. It was too soon to get detailed this far out.

Last Weeks Vermont WeatherWind, Rain, Snow Loss, then Arctic Chill A powerful wet and warm storm system advanced into the region early last week. It blew in gusty southwest winds, and rain early last week breaking high temperature records across much of the eastern Sea board into New England. Strong wind gusted in excess of 40 mph capable to knock down tree limbs and result in a fair number of power outages. The rainfall was impressive and the biggest so far this winter with 1.27 inches falling in Sunderland. The rain and warmth took away a lot of our snowpack. Most of the BarreMontpelier to Burlington area was void of snow with bare ground showing despite temperatures flirting with the zero degree mark. The temperatures were record breaking at Burlington, Rutland and atop Mount Mansfield. Here, in the highest mountain terrain all time records were achieved for the month of January. Strong westerly winds blew out the colder air, a function that is typical with big warm up events here in Vermont usually coinciding with string gusty winds coming into the region and strong gusty winds as the warm air quickly exits and the low pressure cyclone moves away while deepening out at sea. The warmest reading was 63 degrees at Bristol last Wednesday, not too many days later, temperatures fell below zero reaching minus 7 over the weekend. The colder arctic chill came with small dusting of snow. The crystalline excellence was most prominent last Saturday morning where diamond dust flurries fell out of nearly clear hazy blue sky. Ice Jams Galore Ice formed from the previous 7 days of arctic cold prior to the warm up, and caused numerous scares on the local rivers where Break-Up Ice Jams became common, due to melting snow pack and a decent shot of rain water all running off a frozen ground. Vermont Weather Stats from Last Week ending Monday the 28th Highest temperature: 63 degrees in Bristol Wednesday Jan. 30th Lowest temperature: 7 below at Walden, and Averill Saturday and Sunday mornings Feb. 2nd , 3rd Heaviest melted precipitation: 1.24 in Sunderland ending Thursday Jan. 31st Most Snowfall: 6.5 at Walden ending last week Tuesday morning Jan. 29th Most snow on the ground: 43 Mount Mansfield at the stake Tuesday afternoon the 29th Global Temperature Facts For Last Week Last weeks hottest temperature on planet earth was 110 degrees F Marble Bar (Australia) Last weeks coldest temperature was minus 61 degrees Habardino (Russia) Atmospheric CO2 Continues To Change January 27th thru February 2nd CO2 levels at the Mauna Loa Observatory were 395.68 and going up. This was compared to 393.11ppm last January 2012 for the same period. Thats up 2.5 parts per million from one year ago which was a significant jump.

Climate Change and Earthworms - Who knew? A recent study in our state has shown large changes in the amount of carbon sequestered in forest soils can result from land-use changes, ranging from agricultural abandonment to intensive harvesting. But, complicating the picture is the impact of invasive earthworm species on forest soil carbon. Eighteen carbon reference plots studied in Vermonts managed woodland, shows a variation likely due to land-use history. But, preliminary data show earthworms present at half of the plots may play a super-important role in climate change. Carbon in soil causes a big flux of greenhouse gases into the atmosphere. Those fluxes were recently connected to earthworms, millipedes and mites that live in the soil. Though earthworms are thought of as friendly presence in many gardens, many of the species found in the northeastern U.S., are invasive and foreign. Vermonts native earthworms were wiped out thousands of years ago, during the last ice age, as glaciers formed, advanced and retreated in the Northeast, leaving a landscape devoid of the soil worms need to thrive. Over time, that soil returned, and so did earthworms: European species began hitching rides to North America hundreds of years ago with the first colonists. More recently, Asian species have made the journey. Earthworms have really big effects on carbon and nitrogen cycling in soil, and potentially big effects on greenhouse gases, and the distribution of earthworms is changing. A landscape invaded by earthworms will eventually adapt. Josef Gorres, a soil scientist at the University of Vermont, said his own long-term field studies suggest that, at least in the Northeast, native plants grow better -- and presumably store more carbon -when earthworms havent invaded a landscape. The Asian earthworm has reduced plant life on the forest floor to nothing, he said. Weather Trends AheadCold, Another Mini Dust Up, then Light to moderate snowfall Thursday night-Friday. A series of weak clipper systems that moved through earlier in the week are not quite yet over before a more potent shot of accumulating snow moves in Thursday Night and Friday. Temperatures will be below normal, with highs only in the teens but rise into the low to mid 20s Friday as a semi hybrid Noreaster gives a us a glancing blow of snow. Lake Effect Potency Waning With modified shots of arctic air this week, lets take a look at the Great Lakes, a moisture source that had a huge effect on our region in the late Fall and first half of Winter in terms of clouds and occasionally snow accumulation.
