Inspired by the need to help feed fellow Vermonters, a group of Northfield Savings Bank employees created the Feast Against Famine event; it has become the largest annual fund raiser for the Chittenden Emergency Food Shelf. The event is run entirely by the volunteers so that none of the Food Shelf staff needs to take time away from their daily work. This year's sixth annual St. Patricks Day themed event raised more than $36,000. Since 2006, the event has raised more than $178,000 which supports programs including Community Kitchen job skills training, Hot Meals, Grocery Distribution, Homebound Grocery Delivery and Project Angel Food. The event included live Irish music, a corned beef and cabbage dinner, and a silent auction including more than 100 items donated by Vermont businesses. Demand for emergency food assistance has increased 6% over last year, emphasized Rob
Feast Against Famine Event Created by NSB Employees Raises Over $178,000 for Food Shelf
Meehan, Chittenden Emergency Food Shelf Director. At the same time, donations have decreased 6%. Its the perfect storm, and we have a huge challenge ahead with many people to feed. The organizing committee for the fund raiser is comprised entirely of volunteers and 100% of the funds raised go directly to the Food Shelf. About six years ago I was talking to some coworkers about how we could help, said Kathy LaCross, Branch Administrator for Northfield Savings Bank. We came up with this idea and the event keeps growing every year. Our staff pours their heart and soul into making sure its a success and they are so compassionate about helping others in need. The event was sold out well in advance, but contributions are still welcome. Contact the Chittenden Emergency Food Shelf at 658-7939, or donate online at www.feedingchittenden.org.

By Tom Herzig Having survived a low-snow winter, Pearl Street Motors so named for its origin on Pearl Street in Montpelier, is ready, willing and able to handle some springtime growth at its present location - 2483 Elm Street, a.k.a Route 12 or Worcester Branch Road, one mile up on the right past the Montpelier Recreational Field. Owned and operated by Donnie Gove, whose parents, Ed and Nancy, founded the business in June of1972, Pearl Street Motors is nearing its 40th anniversary. typifies the local small business struggle for survival that plays out throughout Vermont and beyond. Pearl Streets current mode for survival is as an outdoor power equipment sales and service shop. In the heyday of snowmobile sales from the 1970s through mid-80s, when manufacturers numbered in the dozens, Pearl Street enjoyed a good deal of success and built a reputation as a capable Polaris dealer. Our business counted a lot on snowmobile sales and service, Gove said. But over the

years, the lack of significant snowfall on a regular basis, the northeast economy and changes in the industry have taken a toll. Weve had to adjust to stay current by going into service and warranty work for the larger chain stores and concentrating more on corded and battery-powered power tools. Snowmobile manufacturers there are four majors still standing Polaris, Arctic Cat, Yamaha and Bombardier Recreational Products/Ski-Doo now demand contractual commitments for minimum purchases that effectively deal small family businesses out of the loop. All the changes in the world wont do a business like ours any good unless we provide excellent customer service, Gove said. Without making your customers feel like they are your number one priority you cannot build a returning clientele. Nowadays, Pearl Street carries ECHO products, including chain saws, trimmers, blowers and power pruners, General power tools, Toro

By Amanda Coln, Tobacco Prevention Educator, Central Vermont New Directions Coalition Amanda: So Neal, tell me a bit about yourself. Where are you from originally? What are some of your hobbies and interests?
nd
th
Neal: Well, Im originally from Isle La Motte. I love to play video games, listen to music and read. Amanda: Could you tell me about when you first started smoking and why you started?
Neal: I was 18 years old and in college. I started smoking to meet people. It was at a time when the college allowed smoking in the courtyard. I would see people down there smoking and wanted to be apart of it. Amanda: Can you describe the culture of your smoking? Were you a social smoker, a smoker who needed to smoke to define having a break at work, or a chain smoker? Neal: All of it started as a social thing and then after freshman year became an on and off thing. By my third year in school I was a regular smoker. Amanda: When did you think about quitting?
he was 13 and he was 50. He had gotten hypnotized and it worked for him. So I decided to try it. When I went to get hypnotized I found out he had started smoking again. So hypnosis doesnt work for everyone. When I was being hypnotized it felt like I was taking a nap but was aware of everything the hypnotist was saying to me, like floating in water without the water. The suggestion I was given was You used to smoke. That was then this is now.
Amanda: What were some of your triggers as you tried to quit smoking? When were the most difficult times for you?
Neal: I could still feel my body craving the cigarette but my mind didnt need them anymore, the mental addiction was gone. I could mentally say I dont need them anymore." Amanda: What were some noticeable differences in you health and energy level once you quit? Neal: I didnt notice anything immediately but after a few months I noticed my cough had cut down. It felt like a weight in my chest had lifted. Amanda: Do you still have cravings? Neal: Every once in a while. But I am able to overpower them in my mind. Amanda: What advice do you think you could share with our readers who still smoke but are trying to quit? Neal: Try everything! Even hypnosis! Quit Resources: Internet Help - VTQuitnetwork.org an online, free cessation service run by the Vermont Department of Health Phone Help 1-800-QUIT NOW (784-8669)
Neal: Well in my third year of school I realized I was smoking on all my breaks, in the car, and even when a certain song would play on the radio. At that point I realized I was addicted. I tried staying off cigarettes but it would only last a month or two. The longest time was six months. Amanda: When did you know it was time to quit for sure? Neal: Shortly after I started working at the filling station. I really didnt have time to smoke between cars coming up. And the price was really hard to swallow. It just wasnt worth it. Amanda: How did you quit?
The Barre Opera House presents the worlds most famous mentalist, The Amazing Kreskin, on Friday, April 6 at 8pm. The show is sponsored by Peoples Bank with media support from WDEV. With a showmans flair, a comedians wit, and the capacities of a bona fide mentalist, The Amazing Kreskin has, for some six decades, dramatized the unique facets of the human mind. His very name has become an integral part of pop culture throughout the world, invoked in comedy clubs, comic strips, print stories, and TV shows from sitcoms on through national magazines. Nationally recognized in the US as The Worlds Youngest Hypnotist while he was in his teens, Kreskin has since received international recognition for extraordinary predictions regarding world affairs. Recently hes become a regular on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon and Mike Huckabee and for years hes made appearances on Howard Stern, David Letterman and many other shows. He was one of Johnny Carsons favorite guests on Tonight - in fact, Johnnys The Great Karnak character was a spoof of Kreskin. In a recent guest spot on Late Night With Jimmy Fallon, he blew away the host with an elegantly simple card trick. In another, he stood on Fallons stomach while the host was suspended, rigid as a board, between two chairs -- a stunt Kreskin initiated, but was not allowed to carry out, with Johnny Carson. Kreskins signature piece is requesting that his check be hidden somewhere within the venue where hes appearing. If he fails to find it, he will forfeit his performance fee. Kreskin continues to offer $1,000,000 to anybody that can prove that he employs paid secret assistants or confederates in any phase of his program.
Kreskin is in demand to teach classes for law enforcement groups, which focus on psychological methods such as jogging lost memories through relaxation techniques and detecting lies through body language and voice inflections. The 2008 movie The Great Buck Howard, starring Tom Hanks and John Malkovich, was based on the experiences of writer-director Sean McGinly who worked briefly as the road manager for Kreskin. Tickets for The Amazing Kreskin are $22-27 order online at www.barreoperahouse.org or call the Barre Opera House at 802-476-8188. The Opera House is handicapped accessible and equipped for the hearing impaired.

On Saturday, April 7, students in Vermont Techs Dental Hygiene Program will offer a Free Sealant Day for children ages 7 to 12. Dental sealants act as a barrier, protecting teeth against decaycausing bacteria. The sealants are usually applied to the chewing surfaces of back teeth (premolars and molars), where decay occurs most often. According to the American Dental Hygienists Association, research has shown that using sealants can reduce cavities in back teeth by more than 60 percent. The sealants, which are liquid and brushed on teeth, will be applied by Vermont Tech Dental Hygiene students, under the direction of faculty. Its one of the hands-on learning experiences that are part of the Vermont Tech Dental Hygiene Program. In the program, students learn to work as dental hygienists in a variety of health care settings, including general and specialty dental practices, community health agencies, and public schools. In 2011, 100 percent of Vermont Tech dental hygiene graduates were successful on their National Board Dental Hygiene Examination and all sections of the Northeast Regional Board Clinical Examination. This is a great learning experience for the students to place sealants, said Ellen B. Grimes, director of the Dental Hygiene Program. The community clearly will benefit from this free and critical service. Free Sealant Day will be held at the Dental Hygiene Building, 301 Lawrence Place in Williston, from 8:30am to 4:30pm. Appointments are required and are limited to the first 25 patients. For more information, call (802) 879-8903.

Jeremy Spencer, who earned a degree in mechanical engineering from Vermont Tech in 2006, has been hired as a Google field engineer responsible for testing robotic, self-driving automobiles. For Spencer, an officer in the Vermont National Guard, the road to Google was more of a rollercoaster ride than a Sunday drive. While a student at Vermont Tech, Spencer was called to serve in Iraq in 2004. He returned to Vermont Tech the following year, only to be called up again, this time to help with Hurricane Katrina relief. After finally earning his associates degree, Spencer enrolled in the industrial engineering program at East Carolina University he graduated in 2008, and was again called to duty in 2010, this time in Afghanistan. In 2011, I decided to take some time to travel, so I headed across country to California, said the Fayston native. A friend of a friend introduced me to a program manager at Google who was hiring test drivers for cars using artificial intelligence software. Spencer so impressed the program manager that he was hired on the spot. Now, Spencer spends his days in the passenger seat of a Toyota Prius that drives itself. According to a New York Times article about the project, robot drivers react faster than humans, have 360-degree perception and do not get distracted, sleepy or intoxicated . Driving is far more complex than most people realize, says Spencer. When we are driving down the road, we make hundreds of unconscious decisions. My job is to act as the rational, average driver, giving feedback about the cars behavior, how it takes turns, how it accelerates and brakes. The engineers and programmers are geniuses at taking the feedback and writing it into programs that guide the cars.

The independent folk rock sensation, Barefoot Truth, revisits Vermont on Thursday, March 29th for a 6:30pm benefit show at Crossett Brook Middle School in Duxbury, as well as a rare daytime performance for 5th-through-8th graders there. From Mystic, Conn., the band is familiar on the college concert circuit across the Northeast and has made frequent stops to play campus shows in Vermont including the University of Vermont, Middlebury College and Green Mountain College in the past couple years. Barefoot Truth is also well-acquainted with audiences at Higher Ground in South Burlington where it recorded a performance and is now offering the entire show, Live at Higher Ground, as an iTunes extended-play download. Such is the brave new world of independent music recording. Barefoot Truth cannot be heard on mainstream Top 40 stations or even on MTV. But in a corner of the internet known as Pandora, it has more than gained ground its taken off. The free internet radio channel matches listeners with tunes based on their musical tastes, offering new selections it automatically pairs with songs and artists listeners choose. So those who tune in to hear their favorite sounds by bands like O.A.R., Rusted Root or Guster might be served up a Barefoot Truth track all for free. Listeners say what songs they like and can ask for more. In that way, Barefoot Truth has racked up more than 8 million listens on Pandora alone. Pair that up with CDs it offers on its own label through its website and other outlets along with exclusive iTunes downloads and the modern rock band takes off.
Since 2007, Barefoot Truth has produced a sound that mixes jazz and reggae with traditional roots rock and folk while using upbeat, optimistic songwriting for a catchy package. The bands lead singer, Will Evans, is also its drummer. Add in piano, harmonica, slide guitar and upright bass along with an occasional surprise like a didjeridoo and the live show becomes a real treat. Their songwriting carries a strong environmental message that caught on with the 2010 studio release Threads which reached #21 on the iTunes Rock Chart. The industry website ThisIsModern. net which highlights new music called Threads "the best independently released album of 2010." In addition to the college- and prep-school concert scene and folk-rock festivals, Barefoot Truth has dabbled in movie scores (the 2010 documentary film Nature Propelled) and video games (MTVs Rock Band). The March 29th concert will be held at Crossett Brook Middle School, on Rt. 100 in Duxbury. Doors open at 6pm and showtime is 6:30 to 8:30pm. Tickets can be purchased in advance through the Crossett Brook website at www.cbmsonline.org for only $10 per person and $30 per family of four. Tickets will be available at the door, day of show for $15 per person and $50 per family of four. Refreshments and snack food will be available. Proceeds will benefit the CBMS PTO which funds student activities and programs. To check out Barefoot Truth, visit the bands website: www. barefoottruth.com.

Pyrofax Energy is proud to sponsor the Race to Read Program, which encourages students living in Vermont to read as many books as they can. Elementary aged children that read fifteen (15) books will have the opportunity to sign the #39 race car driven by Troy Kinsgbury of VG Racing. Students that complete the challenge will sign Troy Kingsburys race car just in time for the 2012 racing season at Thunder Road and will help VG Racing in their attempt to win the 2012 Thunder Road Car Show. Each students autograph will also ride on the car for the entire 2012 season. Troy Kingsbury is proud to be a part of Race to Read. Reading allows the imagination to grow and opens up a whole new world for children. Im excited to participate in the Race to Read because I get to help students realize how great reading is, as well as make a positive impact on students education, Troy explains. This will be Troys fourth year of racing at Thunder Road. Last year Troy won the Eddie Carrol Sportsman Award and finished 4th overall in points. Troy has been a customer of Pyrofax Energy since they acquired FG White Energy several years ago. I have depended on Pyrofax for the last several years to keep our business going and they have

done an outstanding job. From the heating fuel to keep us warm to the propane that we use to keep our deli fired up for the hot meals for our customers, Pyrofax has kept us covered. Pyrofax Energy is excited to participate in such an incredible program. Motivating children to read by rewarding them with the opportunity to be a part of something as exciting as Thunder Road and racing is a great idea. And to have Troy, a loyal customer, be the face of such an inspiring program motivated us to get involved explains Dave Weiler, Division President of Northern New England. As a new program this year, Pyrofax Energy hopes Race to Read will grow to a statewide movement to encourage students of all ages to enjoy reading. Pyrofax Energy believes that literacy is an important life tool that not only helps children to navigate their way through school, but is also a necessity to navigate throughout life. To enter the challenge, you can go to www.villagegrocery.info/ racetoread.html. List each book and have a parent or teacher sign the form stating that you read it. Once the list of 15 books or more is completed, return the form your teacher or drop it off at the Village Grocery in Waitsfield by April 20th.

The Spaulding High School Drama Club is proud to present the 1988 Off-Broadway smash musical farce "Lucky Stiff," book and lyrics by Lynn Ahrens, music by Stephen Flaherty, and produced with permission by Music Theatre International. Lucky Stiff tells the story of one Harry Witherspoon, a meek-mannered British shoe salesman who discovers he is about to inherit the fortune of his American casinoowning Uncle Anthony, a relation the family forgot to tell him about. The hitch is - and there is always a hitch in a musical farce - he has to take his now deceased Uncle Anthony to Monte Carlo for one last fling. Do this, following all the rules, and he could inherit $6 million dollars! Make one mistake,
and it all goes to the lovely Annabel Glick and the Universal Dog Home of Brooklyn, New York: his Uncles favorite charity. Well, Harry hates dogs and surprises! This show has it all including the dog! Join Spaulding's exceptionally talented cast for an evening of laughter, drama and great music, and shake off the winter blues. The show is rated PG and is fun for all ages. Performances are Thursday, Friday, and Saturday March 29- 31 at 7:30pm, and Sunday April 1st at 2pm at the Spaulding High School Auditorium. Tickets are $10 for adults, $8 for students/seniors. Lucky Stiff is staged and directed by Cher Laston, SHS Drama Coach. Musical Direction is by Eric Giles, with vocal support by Rachael Sanguinetti.

The Montpelier Chamber Orchestra's spring concerts in Montpelier and Randolph will offer something you don't generally expect to find in performances by an orchestra- the voices of children. Lots of children. Performances under the direction of Paul Gambill are scheduled at St. Augustine's Church in Montpelier on Saturday, March 31 at 7:30pm and at Chandler Music Hall in Randolph on Sunday, April 1 at 4pm. Works featuring adult and children's choruses will be prominent. The major work in both concerts will be the "Mass of the Children" by England's beloved contemporary composer, John Rutter. The Montpelier concert will also include songs written and sung by third and fourth grade classes at Union Elementary School, the product of a process that the orchestra calls its Songfest Project. Director Gambill couldn't be happier, explaining that "The MCO wanted to begin serving the community in new ways." "I love having the kids involved in the program," he says, both as members of the large work on the program and also singing their own songs that we've arranged for orchestra. "It really breaks down any notion of the orchestra and classical music as being out of touch with our everyday lives." The MCO, 43 players strong for this concert, will be joined by the 21-member chorus Sounding Joy! of Randolph, conducted by Marjorie Drysdale, who, together with her assistant, Grace Chris, is also preparing the children's chorus of about 30 voices, recruited from throughout central Vermont. Sounding Joy! is an auditioned chorus founded 27 years ago by Drysdale. It has performed several times previously with the MCO. Other offerings on the program are Mozart's overture to "Don Giovanni," and "Knoxville, Summer of 1915" for soprano and
orchestra, by the American composer Samuel Barber, set to a poem by James Agee, with Marjorie Drysdale as soprano soloist. Gambill describes the Rutter "Mass of the Children" as "the perfect integration of traditional and modern song. The traditional Latin text is sung alongside new text in English written by Rutter. "The children have been singing together since January," said Drysdale. "They've been such a pleasure to work with- and for most of them it's the first time they've sung classical music like this, to say nothing of performing with an orchestra." Solos will be sung by Marjorie Drysdale and Robert Eddy. The Songfest Projects songwriting residency at Union Elementary was coordinated by music teacher Hilary Sales. Each third and fourth glass at the school co-wrote a song with professional songwriters from a group called Kid Pan Alley, and the orchestral arrangements were commissioned by the MCO. "This was one of the most amazing and valuable residencies that I've ever had the privilege to be a part of," Sales said. I loved the way that the songwriters honored each and every idea that was put forward by the kids and then helped to gently guide them to the final product. Each class brainstormed ideas and lyrics and then created their own melodies. The songs that resulted, she said, were varied. "I can't say that any of them are even similar." The residency, she said, fostered a strong sense of community and helped her, a first year teacher at Union, to connect strongly with her third and fourth graders. Tickets are $15 adults and $12 seniors, students $10, and under 10 free. They are available at the door for both concerts. For advance tickets to the April 1st concert at the Chandler Music Hall, call 802-728-6464.

umanity has certainly done a bang-up job of dominating animals. Just about every animal species on earth has either been tamed or eradicated. And thats basically a good thing.

William Lemmon from taking an infant chimpanzee away from his mother in 1973 and giving him to a New York household. They named him Nim Chimpsky, began teaching him sign language, and treated him like a member of the family. Project Nim teaches us very little about animal behavior but it makes a powerful case against animal experimentation and exploitation. Unsurprisingly, Nim Chimpsky was able to learn several words like dog and cat. Unsurprisingly, he never learned to form complete sentences or to express sophisticated ideas. And, inevitably, the nave familys attempt to raise Nim as a civilized human being failed because he was a chimp. After severely biting a young woman, Nim was taken away from his family. After mauling a second woman, Nim was brought to an isolated primate quarantine facility and permanently caged. Ultimately, the unfortunate animal was sold to a medical testing facility. And all of these ghastly things happened just so some bored professor could prove that a monkey can be taught to use sign language to ask for a banana.

ometimes reporters miss the forest for the trees. Friday March 23rd was one of those times in Montpelier. Last week was a remarkable one in the Statehouse. We have entered the post crossover period, where the budget discussions start to inexorably draw all the oxygen out of the room. Usually, as this process continues, there are some flare ups, often from unexpected quarters, before the news cycle becomes all budget all the time. Crossover is the date by which legislation completed in either the House or Senate is supposed to cross over to the other body for consideration. Its supposed to be the beginning of the final act. In reality, its a deadline that only means so much; the legislature can pass whatever it wants whenever it wants, after all, and is not reticent to do so when it feels so moved. Crossover becomes a sort of soft excuse to bury lingering bills once and for all, and a rhetorical device to speed things up under the dome, with the news medias help. But there is a cultural shift that happens post-crossover, characterized by the growing prominence of the budget debate. Thats why last week was so unusual, as the topics seemed to cover almost anything but the budget. There was school choice expansion. Also lawmakers reactions to the proposed electric utility merger that would potentially leave control of most of the states physical power infrastructure in the hands of Canadians. There was also the Democratic primary for Attorney General. Chittenden States Attorney T.J. Donovans entry into the fray against incumbent Bill Sorrell was something many thought theyd never see and Speaker of the House Shap Smiths sugges-
tion that he too may enter the race is even more tantalizing for two reasons. One, because it has been no secret that Smith has been interested in running for Governor after Peter Shumlin moves on from what is expected by many to be a no more than 3 or 4 term tenure. Two, because of the question of who would follow him in the Speakers office. But there was another story from the end of the week thats fascinating because of how so much of the coverage missed what was really going on. Here was the media storyline: after unsuccessfully trying to get a bill out of Senator Dick Sears (D-Bennington) Judiciary Committee that would decriminalize possession of small amounts of marijuana (meaning, make it the legal equivalent of a speeding ticket with a comparable penalty, rather than a criminal offense), freshman Senators Joe Benning (R-Caledonia) and Philip Baruth (D-Chittenden) threw the Senate into a tizzy by attempting to attach decriminalization as an amendment onto another bill, breaking decorum and protocol. Veteran Senator Dick Mazza who has spoken out to the media in the past about his indignance at some of the uppity newcomers (Baruth in particular) - was quick to find reporters on this occasion as well, decrying the shocking incivility of it all. The Burlington Democrat/Progressive told the Free Press, How outrageous is it to cast a vote on this without any advance warning? So thats the story for the cameras, but it really wasnt what was actually going on. In fact the reality is that Chittenden Progressive/ Democrat Ashe, through his own impulsive action, has virtually guaranteed that no further action will take place on the decriminalization issue which he purports to support in principle.

adies and gentlemen, boys and girls, Jews and Gentiles, just and unjust, men, women and children of all ages, sizes, races, creeds and even political persuasions, step right up to see the ultimate culmination of the accumulated knowledge and wisdom of the entire history of mankind! Yes, men and women, boys and girls, feast your eyes on the miraculous essence, the healing balm, the bountiful blessings of the fortuitous fluid within the bottle before you. Why, never has there been and never will there be a medicine, a tonic, a potion more able to cure what truly ails you, the person standing beside you, and all others on the face of Gods green earth! I now present to you, for the paltry sum of only a few dollars, the healing, blood pressure reducing, diabetes controlling, fat melting properties of the elixir of the angels themselves: balsamic vinegar. Yup, balsamic vinegar. Pay no attention to that man behind the preceding paragraph, but balsamic vinegar really is what were gonna chat about today. Its important. In fact, I think its very important. Balsamic vinegar is something I have known of for years, but only personally discovered over the past few months. Listen, (or more accurately,) read closely, dear friends, because this just might save your life. Yup, again. Its true, and nope, Im not kidding. Not even a little. You see, or you will see that several months ago, yours truly was diagnosed with the common but dreaded and irreversible disease of diabetes. Previously to this I thought that this malady was reserved for older folks than myself. That was before the day I happened to look in a mirror. And so, weeks ago, with no fanfare, newspaper headlines or interviews by the press, it was announced to me that I am now, officially, a diabetic. In deference to my mutually Christian, obviously scholarly friends, I should not mention that my first reaction was an audible, less-than-gentlemanly exclamation to my physician of Oh Crap. But, I guess I did just mention it. Since that time I have been getting used to my brand new, tiny diabetic meter. Shortly after the dastardly diagnosis was made, I happened to be on a phone conversation with my daughter Cathy, discussing
the problem. Cathy is a very accomplished pediatric nurse, and, although I probably should have been talking more to a geriatric one, she had a wonderful bit of advice for me. You see, a big part of controlling diabetes is in the act of controlling weight. My weight was, at that time, at an all-time high, and Im sure that was a contributing factor to my recent high sugar numbers. My doctor had told me that carbs, more than anything else, brought on the D disease. So had Sylvia G., my very patient and helpful diabetic counselor. (Before this I hadnt had a counselor since teen summer camp.) Cathys wonderful advice was to eat less bread and pasta, and substitute whatever my evening meal was with a big green salad of my choice, (now listen carefully) and use just balsamic vinegar AS the dressing, not IN the dressing. She and my counselor had both suggested adding protein by putting some chicken strips or tuna on the salad. Im telling you, friends and neighbors, that that wonderful balsamic stuff is simply delicious. Yum! My biggest meal of the day is now loaded with vitamins, minerals, protein, and is almost totally fat-free. Less than two months after my conversation with Cathy, and with few other adjustments, my blood glucose numbers are down, almost to normal, my tri-glycerides (those are bad things) are less than half what they were, and I have PAINLESSLY lost nearly twenty pounds, so far. Another great thing is that Im not tired of what Im doing. I still love those salads! I have since been reminded by my wife that her grandmother always drank a juice glass of vinegar-water every morning. I remember seeing her do this. She had been told it was good for your arteries. She lived well into her mid-nineties. If youre overweight, (if youre in America, and eat food, odds are, you are) then, sorry, Pudgy. Dont pout youre just one of us. Lay off the Lays, forget the fries, and deny the McDoubles for a while. Step right up and get yourself a big bottle of balsamic vinegar. It just might save your life.

am not sure, but I think that during our elections it would be nicer not to have a TV! I dont know, but I cant imagine how terrible the election of a president might have been if TV was available back when Washington, Thomas Jefferson and even Abe Lincoln were around. All the dirt that could be found would have been blasted over the airways for everyone (and their brother) to hear! I am not a historian by a long shot, but I do know that almost all of our founding fathers, right up to todays politicians had mistresses and of course, all sorts of ways to raise money! I am just not sure if their constituents knew about their secret lives or not. I do know that the relatives of Thomas Jefferson who are alive today appeared to be shocked when they found out that he not only had a mistress, she was one of his own slaves! And they had numerous children together. So you imagine that his wife didnt know? I would assume hat she wasnt stupid and when she saw those little half-white children running around the plantation she might have guessed. Of course, maybe she didnt care! But lets not discuss those forefathers of ours that were elected lo those many years ago. Lets think about those that were elected to office when some of us were alive! I think that the first president that I knew anything about was FDR. He was president when I was born and stayed in office until I was about five. And as I look back on his terms in office, I am shocked to know that his mistress lived in the White House with him... right down the hall. Poor Eleanor obviously knew about her, but maybe after five children she felt it was O.K. to retire. Plus, she was an extraordinary woman herself and I only hope she really didnt care. But it is interesting to know that the press never, ever mentioned his mistress nor his being in a wheelchair. Boy, that would never happen today. The first president that I ever voted for was General Eisenhower. And trust me, I never knew he also had a mistress who was an integral part of his life. Again, I feel sorry for poor Mamie, she wasnt as smart or as public a figure as Eleanor was and so she just smiled and pretended that all was well. And the press? They never mentioned a thing about his very private life! Think about it. The private lives and more importantly, the sex lives of our elected officials were never, ever mentioned until Bill Clinton was president. Then all of a sudden, the gloves were off and every single bit of salacious information was shared with the

public. I dont know why things changed, but I do know that it did happen. Nothing, absolutely nothing was private. And a whole new campaign and election possibilities began. I want to admit to you that I really enjoy TV. And I thought that the worst thing about it was that the advertisements are too many and too outrageous. Actually I have counted the number of ads in a one hour program and the number is staggering. I dont have a stop watch but I bet that there are more ads than there is actual program. And friends, with the election only eight months away, we are going to be inundated with the worst campaign foolishness in our history. What makes it even worse, these campaign clips dont have to be true. Nope, each and every candidate can say whatever they want to say about themselves and their opponents. Untruths or just outright lies are not only allowed but encouraged. I am not sure how to access what is actually true so the lies just pour over us whenever we turn on our TV. Probably what is most outrageous is that the mistresses or gigolos of the various candidates are no longer embarrassed when they are discovered and the press vilifies them in print and video. Nope, they either sell their story or just live on the newly found resources that their affairs have generated. It does make you wonder what ever happened to the paramours of Jefferson, Roosevelt and Eisenhower. I have yet to read any follow-up by one of these women which, of course, they would get paid a kings ransom for. Nope, not a word. Although I dont condone their lifestyle, I do think that keeping their mouths shut was a more classy way to live their lives. I think that the only way we are going to survive this election is to try and learn as much as possible about all the candidates and then sit down and figure out what is true and what is absolute fiction. Once you do that, you have a better chance to figure out who you want to vote for. And it is important to remember that every single candidate promises the moon and not one can fulfill that promise. So, you have to cut through the fiction and try and figure out what is actually possible, decide if that is what you want for our country, and then be sure and vote. And what can we do about all those TV ads that are just beginning and are going to swell to unreasonable proportions? I have absolutely no idea. You can no longer just turn your TV off because there are so many ads you will not be able to turn it back on and actually watch a program. So, start to read a good book and when the ads come on, read a few pages. This will not only turn off the ads, it will probably remind you how terrific a good book really is!

Heres what happened. As reported in this column, the decrim bill has been on the Judiciary Committee wall for some time. Far from being an opponent, Chairman Sears pushed a similar bill years ago that would have decreased penalties for small-scale possession without outright decriminalizing it. His bill died in the House. Some weeks back, Sears reportedly indicated that, while he was not willing to take up the bill only to see it fail, the sponsors would stand a better chance bringing it up on the floor. As an amendment. So the floor amendment was no lone wolf move. Sears, as well as Senate President Pro Tem John Campbell (D-Windsor), knew it was coming. In the scrum that ensued, Sears reportedly saw the floor debate
as an opportunity to re-introduce his bill from years past as a potential alternative to full-on decriminalization an alternative that may have ultimately been more palatable to House Speaker Smith, who has indicated he will work against decriminalization. But instead, Ashe unexpectedly moved that the bill lie which it did effectively killing it for this session. (Its unclear what Ashe was thinking, but insiders note that he has worked hard to ingratiate himself with Senate moderates and conservatives, and this move may have been along those lines.) So despite all the gasps, palpitations, and vapors, the truth is that the whole affair speaks less to the durability of the institutions resplendence, and more to its occasional similarity to Jersey Shore.

LOSO, ROBERT F. SR., 84, of Barre, died peacefully on March 17, surrounded by his family at the Berlin Health & Rehabilitation Center, where he had resided for five months. Born on July 18, 1927, in Plainfield, he was the son of Wilfred "Pete" and Helen (Buxton) Loso. He was raised in East Montpelier where he attended elementary school. He graduated from Spaulding High School in Barre in 1945, where he was active on both the baseball and football teams. On September 9, 1950, he married Hope Arnholm in Barre, where they have always made their home. Bob was initially an auto body repair expert for Central Motors during World War II. At that time, there was a shortage of steel and consequently, labor intensive re-working of crumpled body parts was required. His meticulous work was admired by all. He then went on to open Loso's Body Shop in East Montpelier. In 1960, he formed a partnership with Dick Blake, starting a used car business, Blake & Loso Inc., which established itself as a very reputable local business and is still in operation today. Bob retired in 1984 due to health issues. Bob's favorite passion was golf, a sport at which he excelled. He was the first "lefty" champion at the Barre Country Club in 1965, and again in 1970 and 1977. He was also an active hunter, spending many hours in the woods of Plainfield, Marshfield and at his camp in Groton State Forest. He was an elder of the First Presbyterian Church of Barre and a member of the Mount Sinai Shriners No. 3, the Masonic Granite Lodge 35 of Barre and the Elks Lodge 1535 of Barre. For several years, he was a volunteer at the Central Vermont Medical Center. Besides his wife of 61 years, he is survived by a daughter, Kathie MacInnes and husband Barry of West Lebanon, N.H.; a son, Robert Loso Jr. of Barre; three grandchildren; one great-grandson; a brother-in-law, Ronald Arnholm of Athens, Ga.; and a very special aunt, Thelma Welch of East Montpelier. MELKONIAN, MICHAEL JAY, 54, passed away March 6 at Fletcher Allen Health Care. His family had been at his bedside. Born Oct. 29, 1957, in Barre City, he was the son of the late Dr. Arsen Melkonian and Christine (Grout) Melkonian. Most of his life, he had resided in Montpelier.

He received a full scholarship to Michigan State University and was a member of its wrestling team for all four years of eligibility. He received a bachelor's degree in athletic training in 1980 and was awarded a master's degree in 1981, both from Michigan State University. Mike had also been an assistant coach of the Spaulding High School wrestling team. At the time of his death he was a merchandiser at the Costco Warehouse Store at Taft Corners in Williston and will always be remembered as a valued and well-liked member of the staff. Mike enjoyed a wide variety of sports and outdoor activities and was a die-hard New York Yankees baseball fan and longtime supporter of the Society to Prevent Cruelty to Animals. Survivors include his mother, Christine Melkonian, of Montpelier; sisters Kathi Brown, of Essex Junction, and Donna Melkonian, of Chicago, and brothers Gregory Melkonian, of Hopkinton, N.H., and Jeffrey Melkonian, of Ithaca, N.Y., and numerous nieces and nephews.

About one-third of the planet, or roughly 2.1 billion people, are Christians. Each spring, this large subset of the population celebrates the religious miracle that is the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. The Lenten season is one of the holiest times of the year on the Christian calendar. This is a period of 40 days and nights that begins with Ash Wednesday at the beginning of Lent and lasts through Easter Sunday. Many Christians celebrate Easter but may not know the signicance or meaning behind certain days on the Lenten calendar. Here is a primer on the Lenten season for Christians and nonChristians alike.

April is right around the corner and I know there are some of you that are planning a nice trip South during April vacation. I am sooo jealous! Here are a few things to think about when packing for your trip. Determine whats already in your wardrobe that will be suitable for the climate you are reaching. If the days will be hot and nights cool, bring layering pieces. Try to pack garments that dont wrinkle easily - like the slinky travel easy fabric - that fabric is great for dressier evening events. But for daytime, 100% cotton jersey works great, any modal cotton or bamboo fabrics are less resistant to wrinkle. Fresh Produce and Aventura brands have lots of these fabrics to choose from, so if youre lacking them in your wardrobe, check out those brands. Lastly, make sure you have an extra set of clothes in your carry-on because you just never know - your luggage may decide to take a detour from your destination. Happy travels!

et a wound-down body clock (from travel, stress or the switch to daylight saving time) mess with YOU? No way! Keep your personal Big Ben ticking at a steady rhythm, and youll see immediate benefits. Youll keep your appetite in check, stay sharply focused and get a great nights sleep. And thats not all. New discoveries show that an in-sync body clock also has these surprising benefits: --Younger skin: Resetting your body clock helps skin stem cells keep perfect time, protecting against sun damage by day and replacing damaged skin cells as you sleep. An off-kilter body clock interferes with the ability of skin stem cells to repair damage and protect against tumors, says a recent Ohio State University study. --Super immunity: Theres new evidence that daily body rhythms control a gene that determines how your immune system reacts to invading bacteria and viruses. Keeping your internal timepiece running smoothly rewards YOU with stronger defenses. Consistently sufficient sleep is the key to avoiding everything from minor head colds to major cancers. --Better blood sugar: Insulin (the bodys blood-sugar-control hormone) is normally higher during the day, lower at night. But messing with your bodys clock by skimping on sleep can throw your insulin levels -- and your blood sugar -- out of whack. That puts you at risk for everything from obesity to diabetes and heart disease.

Calcium is an essential mineral needed to build healthy bones, teeth, muscles and tissues. Getting enough calcium during early life, especially adolescence, is important in protecting bones and preventing osteoporosis as you age. Calcium in milk, cheese, yogurt and other dairy sources can help build bone mass. It is also in green leafy vegetables, fruits, dried beans and nuts. The body loses calcium everyday and needs to be replaced through daily diet. Otherwise the bod takes it from the bones, making the bones weaker and more fragile over time. Check with your doctor or pharmacist to see if you are getting enough calcium for your age.

She started me on the Monavie RVL Weight Loss Program, as well as personal training with her 2-3 times a week and a consistent cardio workout. With the combination of better nutrition and a regular exercise program at Ladies Workout Express, I have reached my goal and lost a total of 43 lbs and 43.5 inches in one year. I have transformed my entire body and have never felt better! Thank you Ladies Workout Express!! -Tracie B., Williamstown

Were all familiar with the act of CPR -- we often see a film or television character come to the rescue and save a life using the technique. And on TV, according to a recent study, CPR is shown as being successful 75 percent of the time. The reality is not quite so rosy, though. A study conducted in 2010 found that when CPR is used in real life, only about 8 percent of the patients were still alive after one month. Of those who did survive that long, 97 percent couldnt live a normal life.

Casino Ephemera
Q: For years I have been collecting cardboard casino coin containers and have accumulated at least 50 of them from casinos in Canada, Illinois, Arizona and Las Vegas. Because of the new ticket machines in the casinos, I believe my cardboard containers are now collectible. -Tony, Sun City West, Ariz. A: I contacted several collectors who buy, sell and trade casino gambling items such as tokens, chips and even ashtrays. There was no interested in your cardboard coin containers. This doesnt necessarily mean they have no value. Have you considered listing them on eBay? *** Q: My wife has been an avid book collector all of her life. Now that we are retired, we are thinking of selling some of her collections but have no idea if they are worth anything. Two of the series we are especially interested in are early and first editions of the Nancy Drew series and early copies of the Motor Boys books published during the early 20th century. -- William, Port Orange, Fla. A: There were 22 volumes in the Motor Boys series, all published between 1906 and 1924. Most titles sell for about $5. Typical are The Motor Boys in Mexico (1906), The Motor Boys Across the Plains (1907), and The Motor Boys
