Anne Decker Named Music Director of


Montpelier Chamber Orchestra

Anne Decker of
Waterbury has been
named music director
of the Montpelier
Chamber Orchestra,
announced last week
by Joseph L. Choquette
III, chairman of the
MCO board of directors. She succeeds Paul
Gambill, who left to pursue his own initiative
with the Community Engagement Lab.
Decker will begin working with the MCO
immediately.
Decker was the guest conductor of the
MCOs spring concert series, Primavera,
which was performed at the Vermont College
of Fine Arts March 19 and 20. Her work was
widely acclaimed by the audience and the
orchestra, which was asked for input during
the year-long process of recruiting and auditioning candidates.
Annes knowledge, diverse experience,
great musicality and energy will serve the
orchestra very well as we begin this next
chapter, said Eben Bodach-Turner, a musician who serves on the board and the search
committee. Those who performed with Anne
and MCO this past weekend can attest to the
wonderful rapport she established, instantly,
with the group.
A music education graduate of Western
Michigan University with a masters degree
in orchestral conducting from the Illinois

State University, Decker has been making


music in Vermont since joining the Vermont
Youth Orchestra Association in 1999. She
spent nearly 13 years with the VYOA and 16
years with the Vermont Contemporary Music
Ensemble. She became a music teacher and
conductor at U-32 High School in East
Montpelier in 2002, and is still a full-time
orchestral music teacher at the school.
In 2014, Decker became the artistic director and conductor of Vermonts newest music
series, TURNmusic. In this series, she blends
her musical interests and commits to bringing
new, relevant music to her communities. She
has also conducted productions with the
Middlebury Opera Company, the Vermont
Opera Theater and the Amato Opera Company
of New York City. She has also served as
assistant conductor of the Pioneer Valley
Symphony. Decker, husband Tim Buckingham
and their three daughters live in Waterbury.
Established in 1994, the all-volunteer
Montpelier Chamber Orchestra strives to
inspire and enrich Central Vermont audiences of all ages through performances of
new and traditional chamber orchestra repertory. The MCO strives to attract the areas
finest amateur and professional musicians
for the love of performing high quality
music. The orchestra performs two concerts
each in the spring and the fall, works with
area schools through Project Outreach, and
seeks creative new ways to engage with the
community.

State Dairy Quiz Bowl Tests


4-Hers Dairy Knowledge

A large group of fellow Barre business people and officials turned out last Wednesday to thank the
long time (29 years) owners of Bobs Camera & Video, Bob and Sue Sager for their great service to the
community. The event was held at The Quarry Restaurant in downtown Barre.

The Vermont 4-H Dairy Quiz Bowl, the


first statewide 4-H dairy event of the year,
was held on March 19 at the University of
Vermont (UVM) in Burlington.
The UVM Extension 4-H-sponsored event,
which included a written test and several
buzzer rounds of oral questions, attracted 76
participants. While all age groups competed
for rosette ribbons, competitors in the senior
division for ages 14 and older, also had a
chance for a spot on the four-member state
quiz bowl team that will compete at the
regional and national level.
The top finishers in this division were
Abigail Hurd, Greensboro; Isabel Hall, East
Montpelier; Katelyn Patenaude, Holland; and
Katherine Howard, Thetford. Although
Katelyn finished third, she is not eligible to
compete on the state team as she is a secondsemester college freshman. Competitors cannot be past their first semester of college to
qualify for the team.
Instead the fourth member of the team will
be Lily Vaughan, Thetford, who finished
fifth. Maddie Nadeau of Derby, the sixthplace finisher, is the first alternate. The team
will compete in quiz bowl competition at
Eastern States Exposition, West Springfield,
Massachusetts, in September, and the North

American Invitational 4-H Dairy Quiz Bowl


Contest, Louisville, Kentucky, in November.
Other seniors finishing in the top 10 were
Leah Titus, Reading; Elizabeth Menard,
Fairfield; Todd Howard, Greensboro; and
Kennedy Moore, Reading.
Junior Division winners were, in order of

Spaulding High Students Earn Robert M. Burdett Memorial Award for Third Quarter - 2015-2016

Each marking period at Spaulding High School teachers


and staff are asked to nominate students for the Robert M.
Burdett Memorial Award. The late Mr. Bob Burdett, the principal of SHS from 1971-79, was the champion of the unsung
heroes within the student body. Mr. Burdett believed, as we
do, that this core of earnest, hardworking students forms the
backbone of Spaulding High School, and that they will
become, in time, the nucleus of their communities and of our
country. To be eligible for this award, students must meet all
school academic standards and behavioral expectations, and
by their regular attendance, friendly demeanor, cooperative
behavior, and earnest desire to do their best, contribute to the
positive atmosphere of our school.
Jayne Parker, School Psychologist, coordinates this award

along with Principal Brenda Waterhouse, and on Thursday,


March 10, the students that were nominated for the third

Breakfast After the Bell


Challenge Boosts School
Breakfast Participation at
Morristown School
and Beyond

New England Patriots Player Duron Harmon and 2015


Vermont Dairy Farmer of the Year Les Pike paid a special
visit to Morristown Elementary School last week with an
important message: school breakfast fuels success! The
school hosted an assembly to celebrate the recent $12,000 in
funding the school supervisory union was awarded for breakfast programs at Morristown Elementary School, Peoples
Academy High School, and Stowe Elementary School. The
funds come from the dairy farmers of Vermont and New
England as part of the Vermont Breakfast after the Bell
Challenge (VBABC) to increase school breakfast availability
by 20% statewide.
Breakfast not only fuels the minds and bodies of our
youth, but it is also a great way to encourage children to consume local dairy products like milk and yogurt every day,
said Pike, dairy farmer from Keewaydin Farm in Stowe, the
2015 Vermont Dairy Farm of the Year. The future of the
dairy industry as well as the health of todays children are
critical and deserve our support.
Harmon, a safety on the Patriots, played with dozens of
students in the gymnasium and shared messages about the
importance of health, wellness, and staying in school.
Since the start of the VBABC in January, 13 Vermont
schools have enrolled to increase students access to a healthy
start to the day. Research shows that the single most effective
intervention a school can make to increase breakfast participation is to make breakfast available for students after the first
school bell of the day.
School breakfast after the bell is a win-win opportunity for
everyone involved, said Ed Oravec, Morristown School
Principal. Students win with better access to good nutrition,
which leads to improved attention and performance, and
schools benefit from improved meal program finances.
Anore Horton, nutrition initiatives director from Hunger
Free Vermont, says that research links school breakfast with
improved academic performance and behavior in students, but
that not enough students are eating breakfast every day.
Breakfast After the Bell is a proven strategy for increasing
participation in our school breakfast program, said Horton.
We are excited to see more schools offering breakfast in this
model and therefore more students eating the healthy breakfasts provided by their schools, while developing life-long
healthy eating habits.
New England Dairy & Food Council and Hunger Free
Vermont launched the challenge in January 2016. The VBABC
is a multi-faceted project that includes resources, funding
opportunities and awards, all in the name of ensuring students
start the day with a healthy meal. The challenge will run for
two four-month terms: January 2016 to April 2016 and
September 2016 to December 2016.
The challenge is a way for dairy farmers to continue to
support breakfast programs in Vermont, said registered dietitian Jill Hussels of New England Dairy & Food Council.
Over the past two years, $67,633 in funding has been provided to Vermont schools by the dairy farmers of Vermont and
New England in support of the many benefits of school breakfast including improved test scores and fewer visits to the
school nurse.
During the event last week, students also heard from several additional wellness champions including: 9th grade student Parker Spaulding from Spaulding High School and
Vermont Student Ambassador for Fuel Up to Play 60, and
Morristown School Food Service Director Jeffrey Brynn.

Climate Summit Promotes


Resilient Schools

As people everywhere strive to understand the challenges


we face with climate change, educators in Vermont are coming together to explore ways to promote climate resilience
in our schools.
On Saturday, April 9, Vermont SWEEP (Statewide
Environmental Education Programs) will host Cultivating
Climate Resilience: An educational summit for empowerment
and action from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. at Montpelier High School
in central Vermont. Registration is $75 for non-SWEEP members, $55 for members, and $40 for co-presenters and students.
Designed for the K-12 grades and all disciplines, this event
will convene teachers, environmental educators, representatives of state and local agencies, and others interested in climate change education to share best practices and launch new
initiatives. Interested students are also urged to attend.
The summits goal is to foster actions that improve societys
resilience as we experience rapid changes in climate.
Workshops will feature institutional practices, student curricula, educator professional development, and school-community partnerships.
Vermont state climatologist, Lesley-Ann Dupigny-Giroux
(who is also the chair of UVMs Geography Department), will
give the keynote speech, and Michael Caduto, well-known
environmental educator and author, will lead a workshop
based on his book, Catch the Wind, Harness the Sun: 22
Super-Charged Science Projects for Kids. Four speciallychosen climate resilient Vermont schools will share their stories as part of a panel discussion.
Montpelier High School was chosen as the venue for this
event because of its emphasis on climate resilience practices
and curricula. Summit activities will use a zero waste
approach that emphasizes the use of durable materials, local
and organic foods, recycling and composting.
Registrations are due by Friday, April 6. Students and
SWEEP members receive a discount. To register and for more
information, please visit http://vermontsweep.org/index.php/

Exploration, Encounter,
Exchange with over 200
Students at U-32 in
East Montpelier

More than 200 students from schools throughout Vermont


will be participating in Vermont History Day on April 2, 2016.
This year, U-32 High School will be filled with projects
related to the national theme Exploration, Encounter, and
Exchange. For over 30 years, the Vermont Historical Society
has coordinated Vermont History Day (VHD), a statewide
competition affiliated with National History Day (NHD), and
provided support and guidance to teachers and students over
the course of the school year.
Students have spent the school year researching history
topics and creating projects ranging from websites to documentaries. VHS Vermont History Day Coordinator Victoria
Hughes says, At the Vermont Historical Society, we look
forward to students interpretation of the theme. This year, we
have entries that include A Curie-ous Discovery, American
& Japanese Exchanges: The Golden Age of Video Games
and How Welsh Immigrants Increased Slate Production in
Vermont.
This contest helps students develop critical thinking, problem-solving skills, communication skills, self-esteem and
confidence. After Vermont History Day, around 50 student
winners qualify to attend National History Day, which takes
place in June in the Washington, D.C. area.
Vermont Historical Society Executive Director, Steve
Perkins added, This exciting competition encourages students to go on to careers in business, law, medicine, and
countless other disciplines where they are putting into practice
what they learned being involved in Vermont History Day.

Youth Maker Programs Come to


Waterbury Public Library

The Waterbury Public Library is pleased to bring Dayle


Payne, a veteran school teacher, and a leader in the STEM and
Maker movements in Vermont, to the Waterbury Public
Library for Youth Maker Programs in April.
First, on Saturday, April 2 from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m., Payne
will lead a Toy Hacking workshop for children aged 9 through
14 years old. Toy Hacking is a fun and playful way to learn
how circuits work. Starting with used electronic toys, toy
hackers carefully examine then safely take the toys apart to
learn how they work. Participants explore both the simplicity
and complexity of these toys and their unique circuits and are
shown how to identify inputs, outputs and power. Kids will
enjoy hands-on learning, experimenting, and creating new
ideas by taking apart toys.
Then on Saturday, April 30 from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m., she will
teach kids aged 10 and up how to make e-Textiles. The emerging field of e-textiles is exciting, fun, beautiful and overflowing with opportunities for innovation. Participants will learn
basic circuit design, how to sew LED lights into fabric, and
build simple circuits sewing with conductive thread. Theyll
explore the aesthetics of circuits, and be introduced to the possibilities of embedding computational and electronic elements
into wearables, and even architecture, and home furnishings.
Space is limited for these events, so please call the Library
at 244-7036 to register in advance. These Maker Programs in
Vermont Libraries: Spark a Culture of Innovation are made
possible by a grant from The Vermont Community Foundation,
with support from Craftsbury Public Library, Champlain Mini
Maker Faire, VT Dept. of Libraries, and the VT Library
Association.

Hillaries racing experience coupled with her roots in the


local community make her the perfect candidate to take our

reading program and managing the programs display at
Thunder Road during 18 events this season. In addition,
she will work closely with elementary and mid-level
schools in the central Vermont area to promote Race to
Read.
Im excited for this new challenge and I have a lot of
ideas for new incentives that will get children excited about
reading, said Scott. The Race to Read program has a great
foundation and the potential to change the future of reading
for local children.
Scott joins Race to Read after spending the last decade in
the healthcare industry traveling all over the Northeast. Scott
graduated in 2006 in Business Administration from Nichols

Vermont Congressman Peter Welch held an impromptu


press conference at the Montpelier Senior Activity Center
(MSAC) on Friday, March 25, to announce the recent passage
by the House of Representatives of the renewal of the Older
Americans Act, which he was very instrumental in assuring its
pass. He particularly was celebrating the increase in funding
for the Meals on Wheels (MOW) program which the
Montpelier Center participates in regularly. Over 1,000 meals
were delivered and served at MSAC during the past year,
according to director Janna Clar who spoke briefly at the
ceremony attended by several City representatives, culinary
staff, and MSAC members and friends. Congressman Welch,
who had just returned from a trip to Cuba while accompanying President Obama, stated he was sorry he was unable to
give those in attendance Cuban cigars.
He spoke briefly with a new Vermonter, Gilberto Diaz
Santos, who volunteers in the MSAC kitchen, a recent arrival
from Cuba, who complimented both Welch and Obama about
the way Obama had very diplomatically and respectfully
addressed the Cuban people with a warm and friendly welcome. Gil, as he as known at MSAC, has been a great addition to Chef Justins staff at Feast, the name of the MOW
program at MSAC. Santos also is a trainee at the Central
Vermont Medical Center where he currently is an
Administrative Float and has been offered a position to start
soon at UVM.
Montpelier mayor John Hollar spoke briefly about how
proud the City of Montpelier is with how the old Saint
Michaels High School building at 58 Barre St. has been
remodeled and made into a vibrant senior center with public
housing on the floors above. He and Congressman Welch then
left to help deliver meals to local recipients.

Grow Another Row


The seniors at TVSC love, absolutely love, fresh vegetables. Once again, we are asking all gardeners in central
Vermont to please Grow a Row for the senior center. Now
is that special time of the year, when gardeners are looking
through seed catalogs and browsing the seeds at local garden
centers. We are asking those gardeners and anyone who plants
a garden, to please buy one (or more) packet of vegetable
seeds, plant them, and when they are ready for harvesting,
please donate the vegetables to TVSC in the summer and fall.
Our meals, are served Monday, Wednesday, and Friday at
12:15 p.m. They are prepared with as many fresh foods as
possible so that our seniors receive nutritious meals. As you
all know, fresh vegetables are very expensive. Thus, our plea
to the communities, please plant a row for the seniors. You
have no idea how much it will be appreciated by our senior
center.
We are tax deductible. Whatever you donate, you will
receive a receipt from Rita, for your taxes. The seniors win
with delicious fresh vegetables, and you win, not only knowing you are doing something wonderful for seniors that need
help, but you will receive a tax deduction. Our Meals on
Wheels program, all delivered by volunteers, delivers fresh
vegetables when we have them, to those homebound seniors.
Wont you please Grow Another Row for seniors that need
you? We had a tremendous response to this plea last year, and
not one carrot, pea, squash, corn, potato, was wasted! It does
not get better than that!
You will be hearing a lot more about this on Facebook and
on the Morning Breakfast Show with JD Green on Froggy
100.9. Cherilyn Williams has so generously volunteered to
create a Grow Another Row Facebook page for this exciting
program. Please check your Facebook in the next few days
and we thank her so much for volunteering to do this, as she
knows how much this is needed.

Twin Valley Senior Center, located on Route


2 at Blueberry Commons, in East Montpelier
was the wonderful scene of a very special St.
Patricks Dinner, sponsored by The Abbey
Group, for the second consecutive year. We had a capacity
crowd of nearly 150 guests that loved the delicious corned
beef with cabbage, delectable boiled potatoes, homemade
rolls, and the most delicious apple crisp with real green
whipped cream, all again, homemade. No one went home
hungry with this bounty of food, and Ray Wood, chef for the
group, was wonderful with all the guests that came to the
serving tables. We so appreciate his delicious foods and his
welcoming personality for our guests. We thank them all
immensely!
And we all thank JD Green of Radio Froggy 100.9, for all
the wonderful publicity he gave TVSC on his morning show
and the surprise he gave us, when he, Lily and Cherilyn
Williams came to the dinner! We so enjoyed having them at
TVSC, meeting our volunteers, and speaking to the all the
guests assembled at the well decorated tables. Rita Copeland,
Executive Director, was his guest on his morning show on
March 16, and spoke about all the activities at the senior center. JD thought she was a great spokesperson for the center.
This dinner was by donation; no set price and people were
very, very generous.
Without the best group of volunteers any group could have,
we would not be able to host these fundraising dinners. Many
of you know, that TVSC does not charge any membership
fees, and absolutely no fees for all there exercise classes. We
have had to increase the number of classes we had in the past,
as so many people have chosen us for their exercise. We are
thrilled, of course, to offer them to central Vermonters, and
they are coming from many towns in the area. Again, thank
you volunteers.

Chamber Members Share Concerns with State Leaders

Last week, 45 members of the Central


Vermont Chamber of Commerce gathered at
our annual Legislative Breakfast at the Capitol
CENTRAL Plaza Hotel & Conference Center. This event,
VERMONT
CHAMBER OF which was sponsored by Kurrle Fuels
COMMERCE Corporation, gives our members the opportunity to meet with the leadership of the Vermont
House and Senate. Members discussed legislative initiatives
that are making their way through the labyrinth known as the
State House. We were very fortunate that the Honorable
Speaker Shap Smith and the Honorable Senate President Pro
Tempore John Campbell were able to join us.
I have previously explained that The Chamber has a deliberative process that identifies issues and creates policy positions, which we then communicate to the General Assembly
on behalf of the business community. Our Legislative
Breakfast is just one way that we do that. Earlier this month,
members of our Board of Directors met with Senator Doyle,
Senator Cummings and Representative Donahue.
The open dialogue with the two Assembly leaders was
wide-ranging, frank and informative. The opening topic dealt
with proposed increases in the gross receipts tax on fuels. The
current law is being amended to increase the current .5% tax
to 1% on retail sales of heating oil, propane, kerosene, and
other dyed diesel fuel, and natural gas and coal delivered to a
residence or business. The gross receipts tax remains at .5%
on electricity.
Members expressed that as the costs of energy are at their
lowest point in years, now is not the time to add taxes that will
drive up the cost to consumers and businesses.
On the issue of legalization of marijuana, Speaker Smith

adams
secrets

called passage of the measure iffy in this session. The bill


has passed the Senate. Speaker Smith acknowledged that the
current ban on marijuana does not work, however, he does not
want to make a bad policy worse. Senator Campbell discussed, among many areas of concern, the difficulty of getting
determinative test results for those who are suspected of driving under the influence of marijuana. Employers voiced concerns about being able to test employees, and the problems
associated with working while under the influence of marijuana.
Chamber members shared their view that local governments must have an authoritative role in siting renewable
energy projects. Renewable energy is important for
Vermonters, but such projects should have to go through a
local approval process.
Predictably, another topic was health care and its effect on
business. The cost of Medicaid has a tremendous impact on
state budgets and, therefore, taxation. Deficiencies in reimbursements are affecting the ability to attract providers to
Vermont.
The current status of subcontractors in Vermont is another
major concern. Members recognize that there is a need to
clearly describe who a subcontractor is. The current definition
makes it extremely confusing and adds costs for businesses
that use the services of those who consider themselves selfemployed.
Events like our Legislative Breakfast are important to our
members. Meeting with state leaders like this in an open
forum allows for a sharing of viewpoints in both directions.
Call me at 802-229-5711 if you would like to become a part
of dialogues like this.

Vermont Mutual Introduces myVM, a New Customer Web Portal

Vermont Mutual Insurance Group recently introduced its


latest web initiative, myVM (myVM.vermontmutual.com).
The new myVM customer portal is designed to give Vermont
Mutual policyholders greater access to vital information about
their policies with the Group.
As customer expectations evolve, we need to evolve with
them, said Mark McDonnell, Vermont Mutuals Senior Vice
President. We believe the 24/7 functionality provided by
myVM, along with the expert guidance and service customers
can only get from an independent agent, is a combination that
cant be beat.
The new myVM offers Vermont Mutual policyholders a
safe and secure way to follow the status of a claim, access
their policy information, even print ID cards. The new web
portal also features a responsive design, allowing visitors
access to myVm from any device.

In addition to the excitement around what the introduction


of myVM means to our customers, were very proud to have
developed this new tool entirely in-house, said Joanne
Currier, Vermont Mutuals Vice President of IT. The experience gained through that process positions us well as we
undertake future projects aimed at enhancing a customers
overall experience with Vermont Mutual.
Additional features of myVM include the ability to receive
optional convenience reminders via text or email. Vermont
Mutual convenience reminders are designed to make it easier
for policyholders to remember important yearly events, such
as a license renewal, vehicle registration or even the birthday
of a special someone.
The new myVM is available to customers of Vermont
Mutual, Northern Security Insurance Company, Inc. and the
affiliated Granite Mutual Insurance Company.

Editor,
ACT 153, which encouraged but did not mandate school
district consolidation, was pushed by Governor Shumlin and
passed by the legislature in 2009 (taking effect in 2010). It
was promoted as a way to save large amounts of money, create efficiency and improve our educational system for the
children. ACT 46, which goes further by mandating consolidation and is currently being implemented in our towns, was
sold with the same bold claims.
Heres some experience from my area that might shed some
light on what we can actually expect to result from consolidated school districts...
In 2011, Windsor Southwest Supervisory Union (WSWSU)
had an average of 1000 students in four schools and a total
budget of $1,649,536. This was just prior to the act 153 state
mandates that took Financial Services, Special Education and
Transportation away from locally controlled school boards
and put them under the purview of the Supervisory Unions
(S.U.).
In 2012-13, WSWSU and Rutland Windsor South S.U.
came together to form a new Two Rivers Supervisory Union
(TRSU) through the ACT 153 merger law. Today, TRSU has
a total enrollment of about that same 1000 students, though
now encompassing six schools: Green Mountain Union HS,
Cavendish Town Elementary School, CAES, Mount Holly,
Black River HS and Ludlow Elementary School. (During the
merger, WSWSUs Flood Brook Union School left to join
another new Regional Educational District connected to
Manchester, Vermont.)
Lets compare budgets. Remember the 2011 budget for
WSWSUs 1000 kids was $1,649,536. Today, the total budget
for FY 2016 at TRSU the same number of kids, albeit for
two more physical schools is $5,352,093.
Now, the massive increase in the S.U. budget can be partially explained by the cost shift of services from locally
controlled schools to the Supervisory Unions. But, given that
shift, you would think there would be a corresponding
decrease in the budgets of the local schools. This is not the
case. The budgets of these schools are either staying close to
level funded or they are increasing by a few percentage
points.
Savings? No. Not at all.
An examination of fiscal services (accounts payable,
accounts receivable and payroll) offers one example of the
difficulty of finding efficiency in centralizing and consolidating school services.
In 2011, Cavendish Town Elementary School was the last
hold out, doing their financial services in house rather than
outsourcing to the S.U. The cost per student for financial
services was $224.06. CTES was using a local control, decentralized, distributive power model of doing business. But
today, TRSU is spending $431.72 per student nearly double
what it was when done locally. This is the new progressive,
consolidated, centralized power model of doing business!
One could easily jump the gun and blame school board
members and administrators for the absence of cost savings,
but not so fast! School boards are told quite clearly, by highlypaid, expert consultants that they must comply with the
edicts coming out of the Vermont Agency of Education. These
edicts have the full force of law as enacted by the legislature
and signed by Governor Shumlin, and they cost money.
So what we are seeing is a loss of local control regarding

Taste of Maple a Great Success

Editor,
I am touched by the kindness and generosity of this community, and amazed at the culinary skills available to us.
On Friday, March 18, Mayo Healthcare held our annual
Taste of Maple in the Milano Ballroom at Norwich University.
This event supports Mayo in continuing to provide awardwinning care. All proceeds this year will go towards the
installation of a safe, outdoor walking path, so our residents
can do what they love in the warm weather get outside.
The event succeeded in raising $4,000 toward our goal. But
the evening did so much more! It showcased what a wonderful community Northfield is.
Josh Fleurrey of Falls General Store took first place in the
culinary competition, with both second place and the Peoples
Choice Award going to The Cornerstone Pub and Kitchen.
I would like to thank all the chefs who not only participated
in the chef competition, but went above and beyond expectations with their culinary creations and wonderful enthusiasm.
Thank you, OMaddis Deli and Caf, Northfield Senior
Center, Falls General Store, The Cornerstone Pub and Kitchen,
The Woods Lodge, Two Wooden Spoons and the neighboring
business form the Mad River Valley, Three Mountain Caf,
The Comman Man, and Sugarbush Resort.
Thank you also to our judges, who by no means had an easy
task. They were Jaime Schneider, Henry Marckres, and Burr
Morse. Thank you, Norwich and Sodexo, for the beautiful
space. A big thank you to the over 50 businesses who supported our silent auction.
Finally, thank you Northfield.

The Trump Wrecking Ball

Editor,
Trump could win the Republican nomination, but lose to
Clinton in the general election. He might severely damage the
Republican Party, and adversely impact Republicans in
Congressional and state races. His un-American campaign of
political violence and hooliganism is reminiscent of 20th century Nazi and Communist dictators.
In the Republican primaries, Trump is averaging 35% of
the vote. If Trump was up against one other candidate, polls
show he might get another 10% of the vote. History reveals
primary candidates receiving less than 50% of the vote will
lose the election for President.
The U.S. electorate comprises 26% Republicans, 30%
Democrats, and 44% Independents. Polls show Trump garnering 70% of the Republican vote, or 18% (30% voting other);
5% of the Democratic vote, or 1.5%; and 40% of the
Independent vote, or 18%, giving him 37.5% of the total
vote. Clinton will receive few Republican votes; 95% of the
Democratic vote, or 28.5%; and 60% of the Independent vote,
or 26%. This gives Clinton 54.5% of the total vote, Trump
37.5%, and the remaining 8% are write-ins or blank ballots.
It is a Trump Wrecking Ball. The integrity of the Republican
Party and the dignity of the Presidency is at stake.

March 30, 2016

will soon be embarking on a great adventure; at least it is a great one from


my perspective. Other people have certainly been on bigger adventures, but this
one is going to be fun. I am not heading
for the top of Mount Everest, (thankfully), or to the moon, (I
wish), but what I am doing is going to be pretty exciting for
me. Many times, I think, half of the fun of a big trip is in looking forward to it. Its fantastic to wake up one day knowing
that you will soon be at Disney World, taking a cruise, or visiting another country. For me, a camping and/or shing trip is
also something I look forward to a lot. As I said, the looking
forward to it part, is nearly as much fun as the actual trip.
The adventure that I am, at this point, very much looking
forward to, is not to a theme park or to another country. It
isnt even to go shing. It is also not a family vacation, although I wish my family could join me. My trip, near the end
of April this year, will be to go south to pick up something that
I bought way back last October. I have told many people about
this purchase of mine, and probably have bored them to tears
with the story. So, now its your turn. You get to be bored to
tears with the story, and I probably dont even know you.
You see, I have been talking about buying an antique, classic, Volkswagen Beetle, probably since you could buy one of
those adorable little cars brand new. In fact, I know that is true.
I fell in love with those cars when my grandfather purchased
a new forest green one in the mid-1960s, and again when my
dad bought a brand new baby blue one in 1974. Believe it or
not, I have since seen an exact duplicate of Dads VW, with
zero miles on the odometer, in the Smithsonian Institution in
Washington, D.C. Wow! Maybe Im the one who is the antique.
For years, I wished I had purchased a beetle new, way back
then, and just kept it, un-driven, until now. In the 60s the
newspaper ads were selling them for $895, including delivery

from Germany. Wow, again. Of course, I was a kid back then,


earning a dollar and twenty ve cents a week, mowing my
parents lawn, so $895 might as well have been $89,000 to me.
Thats the way life, (and ination) is.
Ever since that long ago time, I have been occasionally
watching for a really good deal on a really nice VW, and have
come close to buying one or another of them a few times over
the years. That was until last fall, when my keen-eyed mom,
a vibrant woman in her (early) 90s, spotted one in a Walmart
parking lot near her home in Florida. She wrote the information down, and called me the very same night.
I soon perused the car, and it was a match made in heaven,
or at least one made in Florida, which is close enough. After
contacting the owners, who turned out to be fantastic people,
and after agonizing over the decision for several weeks, I said
I do and purchased the bug, for real. Sometimes I still cant
believe I did that.
So, several weeks from now I will y to the Sunshine State,
visit my mom for a few days, and start the long and gentle
journey home, behind the elderly wheel of my new, 46-yearold car. I can hardly wait! I have thought of, somehow, sending out alerts to family and friends, as I make my way up the
country, sort of like the Santa sightings that used to be done
on local radio stations as the jolly old elf made his way across
the country from the North Pole, on Christmas eve. Hopefully,
THIS jolly old elf will nd his way back up here without incident, (or accident), thanks to an iPhone and GPS, which Santa
never had. Im going to take notes and record comments from
people along the way, and I promise to let you know how the
trip went, in a future column.
I hope you werent too bored with the tale of my recent
purchase, or of my plan to bring my baby home. Life is short,
cute little antique cars are few, and we need to savor our great
adventures, however they come to us.

Reisss Pieces
By Judy Reiss

s many of you might know, I


have lived in Waitsfield for
well over 55 years. And on top
of that, this November 27, although I
was in the hospital, Malcolm and I celebrated our 50th wedding anniversary!
Fortunately, our children had thrown
us a wonderful 50th party on the 7th of November and it was
just what I had dreamed of, celebration-wise. All my children and all of my grandchildren were there and nobody was
more shocked than I was when Adrienne, Mike and Katie Mei
walked up to me because I had just talked to Adrienne on the
phone and assumed she was still in Vail, Colorado where she
lives. Now the hospital was terrible but I was able to recall my
party on the actual day and that made everything bearable!
I think that whole hospital experience gave me a whole new
perspective on my life. I now know that life is actually fleeting
and that you have to enjoy every single minute that you are
alive! Because you have no idea when it will be over. And we
all know that nothing stays the same and worrying about the
changes that today brings is wasted time. Oh, and before I go
on, please take this advice. Never, ever go to the hospital for
anything or any procedure without taking an advocate with
you! I know that you trust your doctor and assume that you
will need nothing that he or she cant provide for you, but that
is absolutely wrong! You need someone to speak for you, and
it doesnt need to be a professional. All you really need is
someone who knows you and cares about you. I know that I
mentioned before that my daughter, Polly, who is an RN, was
working per diem at the hospital where I had my knee replaced
and she came into the room where I was supposedly recovering. If she hadnt come in at that minute, I would be dead!
How is that for a good advocate? I still tease her today that
with that one visit she erased every naughty and bad thing she
ever did! Could any of my other loved ones done the same?
I dont know and fortunately I dont need to find out. But she
was able to rally those who needed to take care of the problem

Senate Report:

and so, here I am today! So. Be absolutely sure you have an


advocate!
Before I got sidetracked with the advocate information,
what I wanted to discuss with you is taking every single day
as it comes with a light heart! Now I know that this isnt easy.
Those of us who are older have a hard time trying to understand what is happening in our world today, especially with
our own families and in our own towns. Many of us actually
grew up in small, friendly towns like Andy did in Mayberry.
We knew everybody and everybody knew us. No one ever
heard of a lawsuit especially when it included their children.
Heaven forbid a neighbor called and told your parents that
they saw you doing something you shouldnt. And that included and wasnt limited to a teacher. No parent ever question
whether it was right or wrong. The child was always wrong
and we knew it. So, what occurred was pretty well-behaved
kids. And no parent ever questioned the school officials. They
knew you were wrong and any punishment the principal gave
you only made what you got at home worse.
Today, things are so different it is hard for the elderly
population to understand. Almost no child is ever considered
naughty or a bad girl or boy and they are allowed to do what
ever they want to. And if a neighbor should reprimand them,
they set themselves up for grabbing the whirlwind. Neighbors
and school officials need to mind their own business regardless of what they see or even what is done to them!
So, if you are over, lets say 60, keep your eyes and opinions
to yourself. And keep in mind that the parents or young people
have no idea what you are talking about. They believe that the
good ole days are just a figment of your imagination and that
those days never really existed. I know that it is hard for us to
realize that they are sincere in their non-beliefs, but it is true.
So, relax and enjoy yourself and keep in mind that your advice
will not always be accepted with the same good will that you
gave it. So, enjoy every day yourself and let them raise their
own children! You will find that you feel a lot happier!

Preparing for and Preventing Wandering


Six in ten people with Alzheimers disease are likely to
wander. There are clues to look for that mean your loved one
is likely to wander:
-Tries to go home even when he/she is already home
-Is restless, paces or makes repetitive movements
-Has difficulty locating familiar places like the bathroom,

-Feels lost in a new or changed environment
-Tries to go to work even though he/she no longer has a

Ear Acupuncture & Ear Seeds: A Tool for Recovery of


Addiction and Trauma for Adults and Children

The
National
Acupuncture
Detoxification Association (NADA or
AcuDetox) auricular acupuncture protocol is used around the world to help
people deal with and recover from substance abuse. The NADA protocol has
been shown in a variety of clinical settings to be beneficial in the process of
detoxification from substance abuse as
well as to help with the emotional,
physical and psychological attributes
involved in addictions.
What is the NADA Protocol?
It is a five designated ear points in each auricle (outer ear),
NADA-trained certified clinicians apply fine gauge, sterilized, one-time use stainless steel needles just under the skin,
where they remain for hour up to an hour while the patient
relaxes quietly in a comfortable chair. The benefits reported
by patients and clinicians are improved program retention, a
more optimistic and cooperative attitude toward the process
of recovery, as well as reductions in cravings, anxiety, sleep
disturbance. The NADA treatment is also helpful with the
need for and withdrawals symptoms of pharmaceuticals, illegal drugs, alcohol and nicotine.
The five points are: (1) The Sympathetic Point which calms
the nervous system and helps with overall relaxation; (2) the
Shen Men or spirit gate, which reduces anxiety and ner

vousness; (3) the Kidney Point, for calming fears and healing
internal organs; (4) the Liver Point for detoxification, blood
purification, and to quell aggression; and (5) the Lung Point,
which promotes aeration and helps clients let go of grief.
The NADA (AcuDetox) treatment is also beneficial for
children who are suffering withdrawal symptoms from pharmaceutical addictive drugs, illegal drugs and nicotine withdrawals after birth. Children suffering from trauma and every
day life stressors benefit from the Ear seeds lowering their
Fight or Flight responses and increasing a feeling of wellness.
Instead of using stainless steel needles small radish seeds are
taped on the five points. These five points help alleviate and
reduce anxiety and agitation while facilitating calm and
receptive behavior.
I Personally prefer working with the seeds as I can apply
them to my grandchildren for wear of a number of days before
the tape losses its stickiness. This protocol is safe and less
stressful on children. Plus it is great for Adults who want the
NADA (AcuDetox) treatment and do not have the time to sit
for the acupuncture protocol. It is a 5-minute application process that involves apply and go treatment and lasts for duration of patches stickiness. (Ear Seed patches can last 1-5+
days)
If you are interested in a NADA treatment please call me at
802-793-9371 for more information. Or visit http://www.

SPRING CLEANING

How to make spring projects more eco-friendly

he arrival of warmer weather


means different things to different people. Some anticipate
opportunities for outdoor fun,
while others may be considering redecorating or remodeling their homes. For the latter
group, home improvement season provides
a great opportunity to make homes more
eco-friendly.
When planning home improvement projects, its best to first
choose a project and then look for ways to make the project
more environmentally friendly. Such an approach may not only
benefit the environment, but it also may benefit homeowners
bottom lines.

Interior decorating

Longer days and warmer temperatures often translate into


wanting to freshen up the interior of a home. Heavy draperies
and comforters are put away, and lighter fabrics are taken out
of storage. Whenever possible, reuse or repurpose items you
already have rather than purchasing new items. Longer drapes
can be cut and hemmed to be used as window treatments in
other rooms. Making a patchwork blanket out of old T-shirts is
a crafty project that makes use of items that would otherwise be
destined for landfills.
When laundering linens, skip the energy-using dryer and let
items line dry in the sun and fresh air.
If you decide to purchase some new items, look for products
made from sustainable or organic fabrics. Hemp and bamboo
textiles have grown in popularity. Hemp and bamboo plants
grow quickly, and their durability makes these materials smart
choices.
When replacing items around the house, donate older items to
a charitable organization.

Flowers and plants

Spring and summer call to mind beautiful blooming


plants. Relying on native, sustainable plants is practical,
environmentally friendly and cost-effective.
According to the National Wildlife Federation, sustainable plants are native plants. Native plants sustain local
wildlife more effectively than non-native alternatives, so
include native plants in your sustainable garden. Native
plants also are less reliant on pesticides and herbicides to
keep them healthy and viable.
Dont forget to bring plants indoors as well. Even though
you may be opening the windows more, indoor plants can
filter and purify indoor air. The NASA Clean Air Study, led
in association with the Associated Landscape Contractors
of America, found that certain common indoor plants naturally remove toxic agents such as benzene, formaldehyde
and trichloroethylene from the air. Efficient air cleaning is
accomplished with at least one plant per 100 square feet of
home or office space.

Proper disposal

Spring cleaning is another tradition for many families


come the end of winter and dawn of spring. Many people
use spring as a time to go through closets and garages
to remove items they no longer use or need. In an effort
to clean up fast, some people may dispose of chemical
products, paints, treated lumber, and many other items in
ways that can be damaging to the environment. Always
learn local municipal guidelines for proper disposal of
potentially harmful products. Area recycling centers may
have drop-off areas for stains and paints, used motor oil
and other potentially harmful products.
Before discarding something, see if it can be donated or
sold. This will result in fewer items ending up in landfills.
Exercise caution outdoors as well. Runoff from cleaning
products used on home siding or driveways can leach into
the surrounding soil or find its way into sewage drains that
ultimately direct fluids to public waterways. Choose environmentally responsible products whenever possible.

Naturally Clean for Spring


Wiping away the grime of winter doesnt have to mean
launching an attack with dangerous chemicals. As you tackle
this years spring cleaning chores, take a note from Mother
Nature and rely on the cleaning power of a surprisingly effective natural product: vinegar.
During the last century, vinegar has become increasingly
recognized as a low cost and eco-friendly household product.
From cooking and canning, to cleaning items indoors and
out, homeowners are discovering that this eco-friendly, acetic
liquid is as versatile as it is useful.
Cleaning with vinegar has always been an effective way to
banish dirt and grime in kitchens, bathrooms, the garage and
the outdoors, said Mike Smith, executive vice president of
sales and marketing at Mizkan Americas, the makers of Four
Monks Cleaning Vinegar.
Despite its strong cleaning power, vinegar does have one
downfall: its distinctive odor. You can experiment with dozens of DIY recipes online to overcome this dilemma, or you
can rely on a store-bought non-toxic cleaning vinegar such as
Four Monks, which is made from a proprietary process that
reduces the strong aroma and leaves a clean, crisp scent.
Learn how vinegar can make it easier to tackle common
tasks around the house with these hacks and discover more
uses for cleaning vinegar at VinegarTips.com.

In the Kitchen

Clean off the blades of a well-worn can opener with an


old toothbrush soaked with vinegar to help remove dirt and
grease.
Clean your ice/water dispenser by running vinegar through
the system. Flush the vinegar out by running water through
the system for 30-60 seconds.
Rid your dishwasher of mineral buildup by pouring half a
cup of vinegar into the reservoir and running an empty cycle.
You can also use vinegar in the dishwasher instead of another
glass cleaner to keep your glassware sparkling.
Renew sponges and dishrags by placing them in just
enough water to cover them. Then add one-fourth cup of
vinegar and let them soak overnight.
Remove dark stains on an aluminum pot by boiling two
cups of vinegar. For stained and smelly plastic food containers and lunchboxes, wipe them with a cloth dampened with
vinegar.

The WORLD

March 30, 2016

Deodorize the garbage disposal by pouring in half a cup


of baking soda and half a cup of vinegar. Let sit for five
minutes then run hot water down the disposal.
Avoid using toxic chemicals where you store food; wipe
up spills in the fridge with vinegar.

In the Bathroom

Rid a faucet of lime deposits by tying a plastic bag


containing one-third to one-half cup of vinegar around
it and leaving it there for two or three hours. Wipe down
with a sponge and scrub any remaining deposits with an
old toothbrush. The same approach can be used to remove
buildup on a showerhead.
The fizzing combo of vinegar and baking soda can
unclog and remove odor from a tub drain. Pour half a cup
of baking soda in the drain, then follow with two cups of
hot vinegar. Immediately plug the drain with a rag to keep
the bubbles contained for 10 minutes. Rinse by pouring a
kettle of boiling hot water down the drain.
Spray shower doors with vinegar after youve squeegeed
the glass - or before you turn on the water - to help release
hard water deposits.
To make the toilet bowl sparkle, pour in a cup or more of
vinegar and let it sit for several hours or overnight. Scrub
well with the toilet brush and flush.
Remove old bathtub decals with vinegar heated in the
microwave.

In the Laundry Room

Remove coffee and tea stains by flushing the area with


vinegar, rinsing and repeating. For wine stains, saturate the
spot with vinegar and allow it to stand for several minutes.
Then, wash as normal. Tip: For more delicate fabrics or
precaution, test on an inconspicuous part of the garment
first.
Restore yellowed clothing by soaking garments overnight in a solution of 12 parts warm water and one part
vinegar. Wash them the following morning.
Soak new garments in a few cups of vinegar for 10-15
minutes before washing to stop dyes from running in the
wash.
Remove scorch marks from an iron by rubbing it with
a warm solution of equal parts vinegar and salt. If that

doesnt work, use a cloth dampened with vinegar.


Forgot that you left wet laundry in the machine and it
now smells moldy? Pour a few cups of vinegar in the machine and wash the clothes in hot water. Then run a normal
cycle with detergent to rinse the clothes.
Prevent lint from clinging to clothes by adding half a cup
of vinegar to the wash cycle.

What Is Vinegar?

Vinegar is the acetic liquid that results when a product


containing sugar is allowed to ferment. Vinegar can be
created from nearly any product containing sugar; fruit and
grains, such as barley and corn, are common sources of
vinegar.
The ingredients in vinegar depend on the type of vinegar
produced. For example, Four Monks uses distilled vinegar
processed from corn, so its safe for your family. All vinegars are diluted with water to the preferred acidity before
bottling. Four Monks has 6 percent acidity, which is 20
percent stronger than traditional vinegar, but gentle on everyday surfaces. This acetic quality is what enables vinegar
to effectively clean while being safe for the body and the
environment. (Family Features)

SPRING CLEANING

Freshen up your home for the spring season


fter a few months of
chilly temperatures,
come spring, many
homeowners are eager
to throw open their windows and
doors and breathe new life into their
homes. Simple changes made now
even before the weather begins
to warm up can improve interior
spaces and brighten the atmosphere
of a home.

Go plant shopping. Research from NASA suggests


adding at least one plant in your home per 100 square
feet is efficient enough to clean air. Fresh foliage also
makes a home feel warm and inviting. Watering and
misting plants introduces moisture into indoor air,
which can make rooms overcome with dry air from
heating systems feel comfortable. Just be sure to avoid
overwatering plants, which can lead to mold growth.
Swap out throw pillows. Accent pillows on beds
and sofas are quick and inexpensive ways to add new
bursts of color to rooms. You may be able to make
over a rooms entire color scheme with new pillows.
Invest in pillows that you can switch with each season
so your decor will never look tired or dull.
Clean existing light fixtures. Another way to brighten
the mood in a home is to periodically clean light fixtures to make sure they are working effectively. Spend
time dusting them and cleaning off any accumulated
debris. If need be, switch out old lamp shades for newer ones that let more light shine through. If inadequate
lighting is a problem no matter how many lamps you
have, consult with an electrician about installing more
overhead and accent lighting.

Give rugs and floors a deep cleaning. Recirculated air may be


full of dust and other microscopic particles that end up blowing
throughout your home. Also, its easy to track in dirt and other
materials on your shoes that become imbedded in carpeting.
At least once a year, rent or enlist the surfaces of carpet and
upholstery cleaners to give floors a thorough cleaning. You may
be surprised at how clean and fresh a home looks and smells
once rugs and carpets are deep-cleaned. You also can make a
dry carpet cleaner using baking soda, corn starch and desired
fresh herbs for fragrance. Sprinkle and then vacuum up after a
few hours.
Color-coordinate bookshelves. Group all books with similarly

colored covers together for an instant and eye-appealing look.


Simmer some homemade home deodorizer. In a large pot, boil
water and some scented herbs, such as rosemary, citrus rinds,
vanilla, or lavender. The aroma will waft through the home,
creating a pleasing scent.
Invest in new window treatments. Lightweight draperies or
new blinds or shades can transform the look of a room. Be sure
to keep curtains and blinds open during the day to maximize
the hours of sunlight.
Homeowners can make some simple changes while theyre
stuck indoors and reap the benefits when the weather warms up
again.

Spring cleaning projects you dont want to forget


pring cleaning is an annual tradition in many households. After a winter
spent cooped up indoors, spring cleaning can rejuvenate a household and
provide a great chance to rid a home of a seasons worth of clutter.
Donating old clothes and cleaning out the garage are popular spring
cleaning projects, but there are a host of additional tasks homeowners can tackle to
freshen up their homes this spring.

Floors

Simply vacuuming or sweeping the floors might not be


enough to banish some of winters most uninvited guests.
Dust has a way of settling into a home over the course of a
typical winter, and its easy for a homes inhabitants to track
dirt and debris inside as well. After vacuuming or sweeping floors, go over them with a mop. Doing so can remove
any lingering dust, dirt, debris, and allergens the vacuum or
broom failed to pick up. Apply wood cleaner and polish to
wood floors to make them look even cleaner.

Baseboards

Though baseboards might not seem all that dirty, upon


closer inspection homeowners might notice substantial accumulations of dirt and dust. Such dirt and dust many not
be removed so easily, so homeowners might need to use hot
water and a sponge to remove any debris that is clinging.

Curtains

Curtains also may have absorbed substantial amounts of


dust, dirt and debris over the winter. This might be more
visible near the end of winter when more sunlight begins to
shine through. Clean the curtains in adherence to the manufacturer instructions before you open windows for the season
so any wind that blows in does not spread debris onto nearby

furniture. Once the curtains have been washed, opening


windows may help them dry more quickly.

Bathrooms

Bathrooms also tend to bear the brunt of winter weather,


as mold and grime can accumulate throughout a season in
which its too cold to open bathroom windows to let fresh
air in after bathing. Inspect ceilings, tubs, shower stalls, and
floors for any signs of mold growth or grime. Mold growth
in a home can lead to respiratory problems and exacerbate
existing conditions such as asthma, so its best to inspect
bathrooms for any signs of mold growth throughout winter.
If you have let that slip, prioritize such inspections come
spring cleaning time.

Furniture

Its easy to overlook furniture when tackling spring cleaning, but dust and dirt can quickly accumulate on couches
and chairs over the course of winter. When possible, vacuum
furniture to remove any debris that might have accumulated
while windows and doors were kept shut, and shampoo any
cushions or seat covers that dont pass the smell test.
Spring cleaning encompasses a host of tasks, and homeowners who want a truly clean house should not overlook
smaller tasks that can produce big results.

Barre Opera House Presents Amy Helm & the Handsome Strangers, April 1

Celebrated singer-songwriter and Americana artist Amy


Helm and her band The Handsome Strangers visit The Barre
Opera House on Friday, April 1 at 8 p.m., part of the BOH
Presents series, in a show sponsored by The Point.
Amy Helm has been making music for most of her life.
Shes won widespread praise as a singer, songwriter and live
performer, first as a member of the celebrated alt-country collective Ollabelle and subsequently for her extensive work
with her father, musical icon Levon Helm, who passed away
in 2012.
Amy wields a powerful voice that can both stir and soothe,
whether she is singing traditional gospel, blues standards or
her own heartfelt compositions. Shes also a gifted musician
(mandolin and drums) and has absorbed the lessons of many
other accomplished artists with whom shes shared the stage,
including Emmylou Harris, Mavis Staples, Dr. John and Joan
Osborne. She possesses songwriting skills that draw upon a
deep well of American musical traditions and delivers a timelessly powerful statement with Didnt It Rain, her first solo
album, released in 2015.
In a review of Didnt It Rain, The New York Times stated,

Where Ms. Helm truly excels as she has proved in


Rambles past and with the gospel-folkish group Ollabelle
is in the mining of emotional subtleties within a song. Shes
touchingly vulnerable on Gentling Me, by Mary Gauthier
and Beth Nielsen Chapman, and quietly confiding on Deep
Water, which like most of the albums originals was written
with Byron Isaacs, her former Ollabelle bandmate.
Amys appearance at Grace Potters Grand Point North last
fall was a weekend highlight of the festival and her busy touring schedule this summer will include a stop The Newport
Folk Festival.
Opening the Barre show will be old-time singer-songwriter
Martha Scanlan, who has been featured on NPRs World Caf
Next, Mountain Stage and the Cold Mountain movie soundtrack. Shes also won the Chris Austin songwritings contest at
Merlefest.
Tickets for Amy Helm and The Handsome Strangers are
$24-28. Order online at barreoperahouse.org or call the box
office at 802-476-8188. The Barre Opera House is handicapped accessible and equipped for the hearing impaired.

The Father of Newgrass Sam Bush Comes to Barre Opera House, Apr. 9

Grammy-winning mandolin virtuoso and The Father of


Newgrass, Sam Bush, brings his band to The Barre Opera
House on Saturday, April 9 at 8 p.m., part of the BOH
Presents series. The show is sponsored by Peoples Bank with
media support from The Point and WDEV.
Sam Bush doesnt seem old enough to be a musical legend.
And hes not. But he is. Alternately known as the King of
Telluride and the Father of Newgrass, Bush has been honored by the Americana Music Association and the International
Bluegrass Music Association.
Its overwhelming and humbling, Bush says of his lifetime achievement award from the AMA.
But honors are not what drive him.
I didnt get into music to win awards, he says. Im just
now starting to get somewhere. I love to play and the older I
get the more I love it. And I love new things.
Among those new things are the growing group of mandolin
players that identify Bush as their musical role model in much
the same way he idolized Bill Monroe and Jethro Burns.
If Ive been cited as an influence, then Im really flattered
because I still have my influences that I look up to, Bush
said. Im glad that Im in there somewhere.
Hes being humble, of course. Bush has helped to expand
the horizons of bluegrass music, fusing it with jazz, rock,
blues, funk and other styles. Hes the co-founder of the genrebending New Grass Revival and an in-demand musician who
has played with everyone from Emmylou Harris and Bela
Fleck to Charlie Haden, Lyle Lovett and Garth Brooks.
And though Bush is best known for jaw-dropping skills on
the mandolin, he is also a three-time national junior fiddle
champion and Grammy award winning vocalist.
In the acoustic world, Ive been pretty lucky to play with
almost every one of my heroes...Ive been to the mountain,
Tickets for The Sam Bush Band are $36-40. Order online at
said Bush with a smile. As long as Im alive I hope I have the
ability to play. When the ability to play is taken away, its barreoperahouse.org or call the box office at 802-476-8188.
humbling. It teaches you a lesson: dont take it for granted. The Barre Opera House is handicapped accessible and
equipped for the hearing impaired.
Bush is a two-time cancer treatment survivor.

GO FIGURE

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


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

page 24

The WORLD

March 30, 2016

Best described as a number crossword, the task in


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

PICKS OF THE WEEK

Star Wars: The Force Awakens (PG13) -- Surely, youve heard of this one. A
talented young loner on a desert planet
finds an adorable robot who provides a
call-to-action, pulling our hero into the
mix with an evil empire, plucky rebels
and swaggering space pilots. Yes, after
Luke Skywalker and the rebels defeated
the empire, a new one called The First
Order cropped up, fronted by a new
lightsaber-wielding,
mask-wearing,
mouth-breathing menace. But its not the
plot that matters so much, its the expert
execution in this reboot of the beloved
space opera.
JJ Abrams (the new Star Trek movies,
Super 8) does a fantastic job of reviving old fantasies and planting new ones.
Advances in cinema technology are deftly used to blend settings with effects and
make action sequences that are more than
just flashing colors and comedic timing.
Gone is the foul taste of the wretched
prequels (OK, lukewarm, at best) from
the past decade. New heroes (Daisy
Ridley, John Boyega and Oscar Isaac)
fight alongside old favorites, and the
excitement is hard to resist -- Han Solo is
back, and its not just a cameo!
Tumbledown (R) -- After losing her
visionary singer-songwriter husband,
Hannah (Rebecca Hall) settles into a
quiet Maine town and tends to his legacy.
She initially fights against the intrusion
of Andrew (Jason Sudeikis), a New York
pop-culture professor interested in writing his own take on Hannahs revered
late husband. She later realizes that
Andrews just the guy she needs to help
her write the biography her late husband
deserves, which of course leads to a

romance that builds while Hannah learns


to live with her grief.
Its a charming debut for director Sean
Mewshaw. Hall and Sudeikis find the
right tone, triangulating with the films
sense of sadness, comedy and grownup
flirtation. Hall is particularly strong as
the lead with the most baggage, while
Sudeikis gets to deploy his smarm and
quips depicting a wise-mouth New
Yorker whos actually a good guy in
there.
The Hallow (R) -- A young couple and
their newborn babe find a sweet country
home in a deep green corner of Ireland
while the husband (Joseph Mawle) surveys the land for a logging company. The
ancient deep forest happens to be home
to a host of legends about sprites and
banshees -- enough to keep the antsy
locals from taking a walk in the woods.
With dense atmosphere, rooted performances and awesome non-CGI effects,
this director-debut horror could have
been stark nightmare fuel ... if only it
didnt rely on its creatures so much.
Mojave (R) -- Ever wanted to read a
script from a writer who just had to show
off and resisted every no heard along
the way? Well, dont bother reading the
script -- see the movie, where the actors
shout their overcooked lines right at each
other! William Monahan (best known for
writing The Departed) writes and
directs this rambling thriller about a
dreamy, successful Hollywood creative
(Garrett Hedlund) who wanders in the
desert and gets caught in the crosshairs of
a genius psycho stalker (Oscar Isaac)
who uses SAT vocabulary words in regular speech but also ends every sentence
with brother.

Steve Jobs
HHHH

had been feeling guilty about my bank


job for years before I really understood
why. Why should I be ashamed about
what I do while my computer programmer
friend never feels that way?
Learning the philosophy of 20th Century
novelist Ayn Rand helped me understand
my guilt. We all have to earn a living, but
some careers are fundamentally more admirable than others.
In Rands estimation, those who produce
ideas and goods - like construction workers,
factory laborers, and those who write computer code - are essentially good and wholesome. While those of us who simply make
money off others - like lawyers, judges,
stock brokers, politicians, and bankers - are,
in Rands words, parasites.
I share Ayn Rands reverence for the great
inventors and producers in our society who
give capitalism a good name. And I have no
love for the people who simply make money
and nothing else.
Its all well and good to love capitalism.
But it would be foolish to revere every single guy who makes money as much as you
revere the late great Steve Jobs.
The Republican Party doesnt get it.
The GOP establishment is loathed by most
Americans, including a solid majority of its
own primary voters. This is because Republican leaders completely ignore the difference between parasites who make money
and capitalists like Steve Jobs who are shaping our world.
Steve Jobs is a fittingly brilliant movie
about an undeniably brilliant business titan.
Instead of showing us Jobss whole life,
the film shows us three snapshots. It takes
us behind the stage at three important product launches: The Macintosh in 1984. The
NeXTcube in 1988 (dont worry, I had never
heard of it, either). And the iMac in 1998.
The film shows us that genius isnt easy.
While Steve Jobs always had the vision of
a future where personal computing engulfs
and enriches our lives, it took decades for

March 30, 2016

him and his Apple inventors to figure out


exactly how.
And the film shows us that genius isnt
easy on the genius himself. Michael Fassbender communicates how Jobss obsessions
left him emotionally isolated and loathed by
everyone around him.
The neat twist to Steve Jobs is that it
ends not with his death, but with his triumph. The iMac is a huge success and Jobs
is already pondering his next revolutionary
inventions.
Steve Jobs was the greatest capitalist of
his era. Our country deserves a lot of credit
for offering a friendly and free business
environment where innovators like John
Rockefeller, Thomas Edison, Henry Ford,
and Steve Jobs can flourish and live up to
their world-changing potential.
Its wise and patriotic to defend capitalism. But its foolish and immoral to defend
everyone who makes money. That is the real
reason why the Republican Party is on the
verge of self-destruction.
Republican leaders are so ideologically
devoted to capitalism that they defend awful businessmen. They defend factory farm
corporations that torture animals and hire illegal aliens under the table. They defend big
banks that create nothing but profitable debt.
They defend Wall Street traders who care
about dollars infinitely more than people.
A party that should be looking to Ayn
Rand for philosophical guidance has instead
turned to Gordon Gekko.
Revering a shady hedge fund manager as
much as you revere Steve Jobs is as foolish
as respecting me for helping my employer
charge you 17.99% on your credit card debt
as much as my friend for designing the website you enjoy. Get it together, GOP.

Its Time to Remove


Bird Feeders

The Vermont Fish & Wildlife


Department says warm spring weather and melting snows are causing
bears to come out of their winter dens
early in search of a meal. The department recommends taking down bird
feeders now to avoid attracting them.
Bears are very fond of suet and bird
seed, especially black oil sunflower
seed. Bringing feeders in at night
doesnt work, because bears will still
feed on seed that is spilled on the
ground.
Bird feeders are just one of the
things that can attract hungry bears.
Other sources of food that bears find
appealing are: pet food, barbecue
grills, garbage, household trash con-

tainers, open dumpsters, and campsites with accessible food and food
wastes.
Purposely feeding a bear is not just
bad for the bear, its also illegal.
Vermont law also states that residents must take reasonable measures
to protect their property from bears
before lethal force can be taken. Some
of these measures include:
Keep chickens and honeybees
secure within an electric fence or
other bear-proof enclosure.
Never feed bears, deliberately or
accidentally.
Feed your pets indoors.
Store trash in a secure place. Trash
cans alone are not enough!

Vermont Trout Season


Opens April 9

Vermonts traditional trout fishing season is set to open on


Saturday, April 9, and officials from Vermont Fish & Wildlife
say the mild winter could be a boon for early season trout
action across the state.
Snow is either already gone or disappearing from the riverbanks quickly, said Eric Palmer, fisheries director with
Vermont Fish & Wildlife. Anglers should have good access
to rivers and streams throughout the state, and water temperatures may warm up enough to get the trout moving and feeding early this year.
Vermonts spring trout season, which is well-known among
resident and non-resident anglers alike, can often afford an
angler the greatest opportunity to catch trout in rivers and
streams.
Some of the biggest trout caught in Vermont rivers each
year are taken during the spring season, said Palmer. And,
given the current conditions, you may see some really nice
trout taken starting on April 9.
Vermont is known for its excellent fishing opportunities for
wild trout, as well as for stocked trout including large, twoyear old trophy trout that will be stocked statewide later in
the spring. Early spring fishing is generally supported by wild
trout, while much of the stocking in streams and rivers gets
underway in early May.
Nearly 20,000 large, trophy trout will be stocked throughout Vermont in 2016, and anglers will be able to fish over 18
miles of rivers and 25 lakes and ponds that are designated as
trophy water.

Be On the Lookout for Frogs, Salamanders along Roads

One of the great wildlife migrations is happening right now


in Vermont, and it is taking place right at our feet.
You may have already heard the spring peepers or wood
frogs calling in your backyard. Or perhaps youve noticed
salamanders crawling over rocks in a nearby stream.
Amphibians are on the move, but their spring breeding migration can too often become deadly.
Amphibians migrate by the thousands each spring in search
of breeding pools. This migration frequently takes them
across roads and highways where they are killed by cars,
which contributes to the species decline in Vermont, according to biologist Jens Hilke with the Vermont Fish & Wildlife
Department.
Frogs and salamanders become active on rainy spring
nights, which will likely be happening earlier this year with
the warm weather weve been experiencing, said Hilke. On
these nights, drivers should slow down on roads near ponds
and wetlands, or try to use an alternate route. These amphibian hotspots can lead to the death of thousands of animals on
a single night.
Hilke is asking drivers to report these hotspots, or areas
with large numbers of frogs and salamanders that cross the
road all at once. They can contact the Vermont Reptile &
Amphibian Atlas by emailing Jim Andrews at jandrews@
middlebury.edu.
We work hard to identify these hotspots and to mitigate
the problem whenever possible to help give these animals a
better chance of survival, said Hilke.
The Fish & Wildlife Department is working with the
Vermont Agency of Transportation to include culverts and
wildlife barriers in road construction plans to allow wildlife,

from frogs to moose, to more safely cross


the road. The town of Monkton has completed a highway project that is aimed at
providing amphibians with a safe way to
cross under the road.
Conservation officials and volunteers
also work together on rainy spring nights
to slow traffic and manually move
amphibians across the road.
Vermonters who want to contribute to
the Fish & Wildlife Departments work to
help amphibians and other species can
donate to the Nongame Wildlife Fund on
line 29a of their state income tax form.
Past donations to the Nongame Wildlife
Fund have helped recover peregrine falcons, osprey, and loons in Vermont. They

The Nongame Wildlife Fund has been responsible for raises dozens of baby turtles in his own living room before

to conservation.

Trout Season continued from previous page

Vermonts strong trout populations are supported by quality, diverse habitats ranging from small mountain brooks to
larger rivers and even cold-water ponds that hold numbers of
trout, said Palmer. Ultimately, this makes for great fishing
opportunities and a really enjoyable outdoor activity for
everyone from the avid angler to families and friends looking
to enjoy Vermonts great outdoors. And, fresh-cooked Vermont
trout is truly delicious if you choose to keep your catch.
Anglers who like to fish and release their catch dont need
to wait for opening day. There are year-round catch-andrelease fishing opportunities for trout and bass in Vermont.
See page 58 of the 2016 law digest for a list of rivers open to
year-round trout fishing.
Planning a Vermont spring fishing trip is easy. The

Vermont Fish & Wildlife Department has a 2016 Vermont


Hunting, Fishing and Trapping Laws and Guide that includes
maps showing lakes and streams as well as fishing access
areas and public lands.
The guide also lists the fish species found in each body of
water and includes the states fishing regulations. Copies are
available where fishing licenses are sold, or by calling the
Vermont Fish & Wildlife Department at 802-828-1000. You
can also download sections of the publication from www.
vtfishandwildlife.com.
Additionally, anglers can visit www.vtfishandwildlife.com
to purchase a fishing license, view department trout stocking
schedules, and learn more about fishing in Vermont.

Plant a Pollinator Garden and Enjoy the Many Benefits

By Melinda Myers
Whether planting a garden, enjoying the beauty of your landscape or sitting down to a delicious meal, you have bees, butterflies and other
pollinators to thank. These essential members of
our ecosystem are responsible for much of the
food and beauty we enjoy each day.
Unfortunately pesticides and habitat loss are
threatening their existence. There is something
you can do to help. Turn your garden, backyard
or balcony into a pollinators habitat.
Plant a variety of flowering plants that provide
nectar and pollen throughout the season. Planting
masses of natives, herbs and other pollinator
favorites like sedum, zinnias, alyssum, cosmos,
and columbine will attract these beauties to your
landscape. Include a variety of day and night
blooming flowers in a variety of colors and
shapes to support the widest range of pollinators.
But dont let a lack of space dissuade you; even
a window box of flowers can help.
Keep your plants healthy and blooming with
proper care. Match the plants to the growing
conditions, provide needed water and fertilize
with an organic nitrogen fertilizer like Milorganite
(milorganite.com) when needed. Youll promote
slow steady plant growth that is less susceptible
to drought and pests. Plus the slow release low
nitrogen wont interfere with flowering which is
essential to the health and well being of our pollinators.
Supplement pollinators diets with a bit of rotten fruit. And be sure to provide trees, shrubs,
parsley, dill and other plants that caterpillars,
grubs and the immature stage of other pollinators prefer to
feed upon. Put away the pesticides and tolerate a few holes in
the leaves of their favorite plants. With a diversity of plants
you can easily overlook the temporary leaf damage. Plus, this
is a small price to pay for all the benefits they bring to the
garden.
Provide pollinators with shelter from predators and the
weather. Include a variety of trees, shrubs and perennials.
Leave patches of open soil for ground nesting bees and some
leaf litter to shelter some butterflies, bumblebees and other
pollinating insects. Supplement natural shelter with commercial or homemade nesting boxes. Youll find do-it-yourself
plans on the internet from various educational sources.
Puddles, fountains, birdbaths and even a damp sponge can
provide needed water. Include water features with sloping
sides or add a few stones to create easier access. Or sink a
shallow container of sand in the ground. Keep it damp and add

Gunsmoke
Comics

Q: I was a big fan of the television show Gunsmoke. I


purchased the first three comics released by Dell in 1956.
They are in almost mint condition. Although I have no
plans to sell them, I have always been curious about how
much they might be worth.
-- Steve, Casper, Wyoming
A: I found your three comics listed in the Standard Guide
to Golden Age Comics by Alex G. Malloy and Stuart W.
Wells, and published by Krause Books. According to this
reference, issue No. 1 is valued at $300, No. 2 and No. 3 at
$175 each. Your comics were released in 1956 and are not
to be confused with Gunsmoke issued by Western
Comics in April and May of 1949.
***
Q: I purchased a collection of 1,750 78-rpm recordings
from an estate sale. The records are all songs issued on the
Tops label and originally belonged to a distributor. They
are still in their cardboard mailing cartons from the 1950s.
I paid $2,000 for the entire collection and wonder where I
can re-sell them.
-- Carlie, Temple, Texas
A: The Tops Record Company was a dime-store label, not
that theres anything wrong with that, as Jerry Seinfeld
would say. The problem is that most of the artists that
recorded for Tops are unknown, the arrangements lackluster and the discs of little or no interest to collectors.
According to two dealers I contacted, Tops generally sell
for less than 25 cents each, even in mint condition. Since
the records are worth only a fraction of what you paid, selling this collection and recovering the $2,000 you invested
will be virtually impossible.
***
Q I have several dozen older books, and live in an area
where my nearest book dealer is several hundred miles
away. How can I find out how much my books are worth?
-- Connie, Roundup, Montana
A: One of the best resources for you is a nifty website,
www.abe.com. Type in the name of your book and the
author, and it will reveal where the book is being offered
for sale and how much. Pay close attention to both the
condition and edition, since prices will vary a great deal
based on these two factors.
Write to Larry Cox in care of KFWS, 628 Virginia Drive,

Changes To Expect As Cats Age

Dogs are widely referred


to as mans best friend,
and few dog owners can
imagine life without their
beloved pups. But Fidos
feline counterparts are incredibly popular as well.
According to estimates
from the American Society for the Prevention of
Cruelty to Animals, somewhere between 74 million and 96 million cats
are owned in the United
States, putting cats on par
with dogs (the ASPCA
estimates Americans own
between 70 million and
80 million dogs). Cats
are also quite popular in
Canada. The 2014 market research report titled Canadian
Pet Market Outlook, which examined pet ownership and pet
trends throughout Canada, reported that there are 7.9 million
cats in The Great White North, which is also home to 5.9 million dogs.
Many prospective pet owners feel that caring for cats must
be easier than caring for dogs. Cats do not need daily walks to
stay happy and healthy, and many cats do not crave attention
as much as their canine counterparts. But caring for cats is not
always so simple, especially as cats grow older.
The American Association of Feline Practitioners notes
that some cats age faster than others. But older cats are often
classified into three groups:
Mature or middle-aged: 7 to 10 years (44 to 56 years for
humans)
Senior: 11 to 14 years (60 to 72 years for humans)
Geriatric: 15-plus years (76-plus years for humans)
Though this might surprise some people, the AAFP notes
that many cats can live well into their geriatric years, some
even reaching their early twenties. Owners of geriatric cats
may need to be extra diligent when caring for their felines, as
cats often experience significant changes in their health and
behavior as they age. Its important for cat owners to take

their cats for routine veterinary checkups regardless of their cats ages, but
such appointments are especially necessary for aging cats. Because cats tend
to require less attention
than dogs, it can be harder
for cat owners to notice
changes in health or behavior in aging cats than
they might notice with
aging dogs. Routine vet
visits can ensure that agerelated health conditions
dont go undiagnosed, and
such visits may even help
to delay the onset of certain problems.
The AAFP recommends
that healthy older cats be examined by their veterinarians every six months. While that may seem frequent, six months
for older cats is roughly equivalent to two years for human
beings, and thats plenty of time for cats health to change
dramatically.
In between vet visits, cat owners can look for the following
changes that cats often undergo as they age, calling their cats
vets immediately if any of these signs appear to be having any
adverse effects on the cat.
Altered sleep-wake cycle
Changes in vision
Appearance of brown spots in the iris
Decreased sense of smell
Brittle nails
Decreased lung reserve
Heart or circulatory problems
Decreased ability to digest foods and absorb nutrients
Loose skin
Reduced ability to handle stress
Changes in behavior
Changes in mobility

How To Care For Aging Dogs

Dogs and cats may


not live as long as
their human companions, but they age just
like other living creatures. Cats and dogs
rate of growth and
maturity is accelerated compared to human beings, and pet
owners should know
its never too soon to
make plans for keeping pets comfortable
as they grow older.
Pet owners may
find signs of aging
more noticeable in
dogs than cats, as
cats tend to be less
active in the daytime
than dogs. Canines
that were once rambunctious and energetic can sometimes lose their zeal as the
years tick by. Knowing what to expect of aging dogs can help
owners prepare for the years ahead.
Nutrition
Aging dogs need vitamins, minerals, fats, and fuel. The
right pet diet can help dogs remain active and playful as long
as possible. Take the time to speak with your dogs veterinarian about brands or food formulations that may help your dog
live with certain conditions. Vets may suggest foods that are
easily digestible or that include essential fatty acids for cognition and a healthy coat. Foods may need to be low in calories
to help prevent weight gain from reduced activity.
Veterinary care
Geriatric dogs may require more frequent veterinary visits
than younger animals so any potential health conditions can
be discovered before they escalate. Expect senior pet exams,
which may include bloodwork, to be more in-depth, says the
American Veterinary Medical Foundation.
Discuss any mental and behavioral issues your dog has ex-

WALDEN

hibited with the vet,


as dogs can show
signs of senility as
they get older. The
AVMA says studies conducted in the
early 1990s were the
first to identify brain
changes in older
dogs that were similar to brain changes
seen in humans with
Alzheimers disease.
The doctor may recommend tasks to
keep dogs engaged
and more cognizant.

Arthritis
Aging dogs may
suffer the aches and
pains associated with
arthritis. Large dog
breeds are especially vulnerable to joint diseases. Take note
if your pet seems to be walking stiffly or having difficulty
sitting down. Increased irritability may also be a sign your
pet is in pain.
The vet may suggest nutritional supplementation with glucosamine and chondroitin as well as pain relief medication to
help. An orthopedic bed, frequent rub downs of stiff joints and
cozy spots to stretch out can help, too.
Dental cleanings
Dental care is important throughout a pets life, but even
more so as he or she ages. Tartar buildup can lead to gingivitis, which can cause bacteria to get into the dogs bloodstream, potentially leading to internal illness. Brushing your
dogs teeth and providing teeth-cleaning chews and toys can
help. You also may need to schedule thorough teeth cleanings
at the vets office.
Pets needs change as they get older. Dog owners should
keep watchful eyes on their aging pooches to ensure mans
best friend stays happy through his or her golden years.

1 Year Old Neutered Male

I am a handsome hound, eager to meet


you. The staff here at CVHS loves to
watch me athletically bound across the
play yard as I chase balls. They spend lots
of time petting my ultra soft coat, and
looking into my deep brown eyes. I can be
overly exuberant, so I need a lot of
exercise. I need someone who will take
long walks with me before snuggling by
the fire. If you are looking for a guy like me,
come on down to CVHS so we can meet.

Thank You For Saying


I Saw It In
Cat Tears Up Furniture

DEAR
PAWS
CORNER: We adopted
a friends cat sight
unseen. Tara is a
beautiful young tigerstriped cat, but she
claws at every furniture leg in the house.
My sofa, for example,
is pretty much ruined.
How can I get this
behavior to stop?
-- Patricia, via email

DEAR PATRICIA: Almost all cats claw at handy chair


legs, and often prefer the corners of sofas -- the more
expensive, the better, it seems. However, you shouldnt
have to sacrifice your furniture for a friends cat.
There are a few things you can do to minimize the
scratching. I cant guarantee that it will go away, but you
should be able to save future sofas from the same fate.
First, protect your furniture legs (specifically the furniture
that Tara is targeting the most) by wrapping thick cloth or
even multiple layers of newspaper around them, and taping
in place with masking tape. (Duct tape could leave behind
residue.) To discourage Tara from clawing at the protective
layer, cover it with plastic wrap or tape -- when she sinks
her claws into the tape, the uncomfortable sensation will
stop the clawing.
Next, give Tara some things that she CAN claw, and that
she can spend her time with: multiple scratching posts and
toys.
Third, spent more time with Tara, playing, petting or just
being in the same room. Help her work off extra energy
and assure her that despite the change in homes, she has
nothing to worry about -- and much of the anxiety that may
be behind her obsessive clawing may ease.
If these steps dont reduce the amount of furniture clawing going on, talk to Taras vet about medication that could
ease her anxiety.

WORLD AUTOMOTIVE
Simple Maintenance Tips To
Keep Your Ride Running Strong

Motor vehicles are sizable investments


that, for many people, trail only homes
and educations in terms of the biggest
expenses they will ever have. So its in
drivers best interests to take every step
possible to protect their investments and
keep their vehicles running smoothly as
long as possible. While knowledgeable
mechanics can be invaluable resources,
drivers can take several minor, simple
steps to keep their cars running smoothly
for years to come.
Perform weekly visual inspections.
Few drivers take the time to look at their
vehicles once those vehicles lose their
new car luster. But visual inspections
can help drivers find problems that,
though minor, may impact their vehicles
performance. For example, a routine
examination of vehicle tires can indicate
if those tires are properly inflated. Poorly
inflated tires can decrease fuel efficiency
and affect the overall safety of a vehicle.
If tires appear flat, check their pressure
and inflate them to the levels listed in
your owners manual.
Look for fluid leaks. Another telltale
and easily identifiable sign that a vehicle
needs some maintenance is the sight of
fluids beneath the car. If you notice
puddles or stains beneath where you
normally park your car, your vehicle
may be leaking fluids. Note the color
and consistency of the fluid and then call
your mechanic to determine which fluid
is leaking and how to fix the problem.
Stick to manufacturer-recommended
maintenance schedules. Whether your
vehicle is brand new or has some tread

on its tire, consult the owners manual


for manufacturer recommendations with
regard to changing fluids and replacing
filters. Many recent models can now be
driven roughly 5,000 miles before they
need an oil change, but check your
owners manual for the guidelines established by your vehicles manufacturer,
and adhere to that schedule religiously.
If you drive an older car, recognize that
the vehicle may benefit from more frequent oil changes and tuneups.
In addition, read the manual for additional guidelines, such as how often to
replace the air filter, headlight, turn signal and brake lamps, windshield wipers,
and other vehicle parts that can wear
down over time.
Look under the hood as well. While
many drivers feel that the area beneath
their vehicles hoods is best left to the
professionals, you can still lift up the
hood every so often to see if there are
any glaring problems that demand attention. Inspect rubber belts for signs of
wear and tear, and know that such belts
may need to be replaced every 50,000
miles or even more frequently depending
on your driving habits. Lifting the hood
is also necessary when checking fluid
levels, which you should check periodically and before and after any long
