Pictured (r to l) are Bobbie Jo Roby, District Manager, Lennys Shoe & Apparel; Christine Foster, Chief
Development Officer, Vermont Foodbank; and Mark McCarthy, Co-owner, Lennys Shoe & Apparel.
Lennys Donates 42,000 Meals to the Vermont Foodbank
Barre Edward Jones Office Supports Toys for Tots Drive
Cathy Systo, a local Edward Jones financial
advisor, is supporting the Washington County
Toys for Tots program by using her office as a
drop-off location for this years toy drive.
Local residents may help needy children in the
area by bringing in a new, unwrapped toy to the
office, 236 South Main Street, during regular
business hours, through December 18th.
With the holiday season around the corner,
we are all getting ready for the festivities, Cathy
said. And as this is the season of giving, now is
a great time to remember the less fortunate in our
community.

Vermonters shopped til they dropped on the
day before Thanksgiving and raised over $7,000
to fight hunger. Lennys Shoe and Apparel held
their 3rd annual Charity Sale on November 21st,
and the store and its customers collectively
raised $7,018.04 for the Vermont Foodbank.
Wednesday morning, Lennys owner Mark
McCarthy presented that donation to Vermont
Foodbank Chief Development Officer Christine
Foster.
With federal cuts to nutrition programs, high
unemployment, and the looming winter months,
support for the Vermont Foodbank has never
been more important, said John Sayles, Vermont
Foodbank CEO. This week alone, 8,200 differ-
ent Vermonters will walk through the doors at
food shelves and meal sites in need of assistance
and we are so grateful to Lennys Shoe and
Apparel for their continued support that is ensur-
ing our ability to feed our neighbors in need.
With use of a pre-purchased VIP ticket, shop-
pers received exclusive storewide savings during
Lennys Day Before Thanksgiving Charity
Sale. 100% proceeds from each of the 773 VIP
ticket sold went directly to the Vermont
Foodbank. In addition to the ticket proceeds,
Lennys also donated a percentage of the days
total sales. This donation translates to over
42,000 meals for Vermont children, families and
seniors who experience hunger.
This is the true spirit of the holiday season,
said Lennys Co-Owner Mark McCarthy. Wed
like to thank our loyal customers for their sup-
port of local businesses like Lennys, and for
their generous donations to the Vermont
Foodbank.
Today, I...
washed my windows,
cleaned my carpets,
scrubbed and sealed
my stone oor,
and got that nasty stain out
of my couch.

THANK YOU FOR SAYING
I SAW IT IN New Stamp, Coin & Jewelry
Store to Open in Barre
Thrift Pawn & Beyond, formerly located on South Main Street
in Barre, has closed and is no longer open to the public. In its
place, owner Craig A. Corliss-Mcdermott has decided to restruc-
ture his business efforts and will be opening a new stamp, coin and
jewelry store.
The new venture will be named Central Vermont Stamp Coin &
Jewelry Depot LLC. Craig will serve as the senior numismatist at
the new business, which will be located in the same building as his
former venture, and open for public business around January 1st
of 2013. He hopes to accommodate serious collectors, hobbyists
and numismatic professionals alike.
As a gesture of good faith and appreciation for the community
which supported Thrift Pawn & Beyond, store owner Craig A.
Corliss-Mcdermott has donated all musical instruments left in
stock to the band and music department of Spaulding High School.
The fair market value of the musical donations were just under
$3000.
Thrift Pawn & Beyond also donated just over $4000 worth of
kids Christmas presents to the four children and the family dis-
placed by fire in Barre Town during late November of this year.
Corliss-Mcdermott is also working with Kristen Deforge of Barre
P&P to provide gifts to offenders children during this holiday
season.
Call (802)-917-1734 or email vermontrarecoins@gmail.com for
more information.
On September 9th, Central Vermont ATV Club in Washington held their
annual Scavenger Hunt. Pictured are participants Shelby Goodell (11)
and Camden Goodell (7). Shelby was riding with her Mimi, Peggy Hunt,
when she spotted the witch on the trail, winning her $300. The club gave
away $500 in cash awards, and all moneys that were raised through the
scavenger hunt were donated to the Central Vermont Food Shelf.

By TOM HERZIG
Heres a math problem to ponder over
your morning coffee. If the USA graduating
high school class of 2011 had a 32 percent
proficiency rate in math - trailing 32 coun-
tries worldwide - and over 50 percent of the
nations state education departments have
sought a waiver of the No Child Left Behind
Act, what is the probability of a flipped
nickel coming up heads three times in a
row?
The answer, (1/8), is the same today as it was when the nickel
was introduced in 1866, but math curriculums have changed many
times since then, even before the digital age.
Being able to come up with the one-in-eight result after learning
the basics about probabilities and statistics is expected of Vermonts
seventh grade math students.
Other topics covered in 7th grade math class include ratios and
proportional relationships, the number system (integers, negative
numbers and fractions), simplifying and writing algebraic equa-
tions and working with geometric figures.
Since Vermont embraced the Common Core State Standards
Initiative, not without controversy, the prevailing view has been
that students who have completed 7th grade and mastered the
content and skills taught in math classes along the way, will be
well-prepared for algebra in grade 8.
The National Council of Teachers of Mathematics contends
that, students in grades 6-8 should work more with symbols than
elementary students. They must become comfortable with multiple
representations. They should learn to distinguish linear relation-
ships from nonlinear ones. Students in the middle grades should
also learn to recognize and generate equivalent expressions, solve
linear equations, and use simple formulas.
Math teacher and blogger Emily Allman poses the question,
How is algebraic thinking different from mathematical think-
ing? She answers, it is my hope that my students will understand
that algebra is a language of abstraction, where patterns are gener-
alized and symbols are used to represent unknown or variable
quantities. Arithmetic involves counting and manipulation of
quantities where algebra relies more heavily on reasoning and
generalizing the patterns that are observed from arithmetic proce-
dures. It is my ultimate hope that they come to appreciate the
power and utility of generalization.
We use Connected Math 2, a comprehensive curriculum with a
set of lessons all the teachers use, says Beth Hulbert the K-8
Mathematics Coordinator for Barre Supervisory Union. What we
expect from the students is significantly greater than what was
expected of their parents. The cognitive demand is significant.
Now we want kids to solve problems. We need to be competitive
internationally. The goal is to be turning out better math stu-
dents.
Teachers have some leeway, Hulbert points out. There are
certain things that we have to teach with all our power, but there
are enrichment opportunities for high achievers and intervention
for those who are struggling. Sometimes teachers provide after-
school support. Skilled teachers recognize students misconcep-
tions and they know when to move forward and when to circle
back. In Japan, the method is full speed ahead and parents and
students lagging behind rely on private tutoring.
There are some cliffs along the way, Hulbert said. By the end
of 5th grade, students are expected to understand the relationship
between multiplication and division. That work began in third
grade. Fractional reasoning comes next. The most important and
critical math in 7th grade is ratios and proportions.
Hulbert believes that the teacher and his or her knowledge is the
most important factor in student success. You can give a strong
teacher a mediocre program and they will improve upon it, she
said. If you give a weak teacher a strong program they will not
have the knowledge to use it optimally. That is why ongoing pro-
fessional development for teachers is so critical.
In grades 6-8, we have committed to a daily school-wide
30-minute intervention block for all students in the areas of math
and literacy, Montpelier Main Street Middle School Principal
Pam Arnold said. Teachers meet weekly to analyze student work
and design small, focused instructional groups that provide addi-
tional time and support. This extra time and support is often just
what is needed to build confidence with the material and concepts.
Students not in need of intervention participate in opportunities
related to the concepts that allow then to demonstrate their learn-
ing through application and extension.
In March 2012, Gov. Peter Shumlin and Education Commissioner
Armando Vilaseca announced plans to make Algebra I (9th grade)
and Geometry (10th grade) required coursework for graduation.
The change requires the approval of the State Board of Education
and could be in effect by 2014.
Vermont has ranked well nationally in math achievement,
said Vermont Department of Education Assessment Director
Michael Hock. The question comes up though, are we winning a
turtle race? We cant rest on our laurels. The demands have
increased.
In some cases, weve failed to give math relevancy, Hock
continued. We didnt introduce the concepts in the context of the
real everyday world. Getting through algebra gives you the rea-
soning and the problem-solving skills that are valued in the mar-
ketplace.

Everyone was so fabulous. Dr. Ehret
was wonderful. He told me exactly what
to do and managed to make me feel calm.
It could not have been better.
On Monday evening, December 3, Aiden
Lucas Stubbs was born. His lovely mama
Tara worked at the hospital all day, thought
perhaps she was in labor in the afternoon
so her husband Lucas took her home for
just a few hours and they then returned
for just a few hours before their sweet,
beautiful son was born. Fabulous indeed.
Mom, Dad and baby. Aiden weighs 7lb/9oz
and is about 20 inches long. He looks a
lot like his daddy. He was sleeping comfortably in his mothers arms when we came by so there is no
evidence of such, but were hoping his smile is as beautiful as his moms. Hes mighty cute so chances
are.... The happy Stubbs family lives in Barre. We wish them all the best with continued ease.

Credit Union Awards Three Vermonters
with $15,000 in Student Debt Relief
Left to right: Tom Joslin and Heather Jarvis of VSECU; Kelsey Gero of Winooski, who received the Essay
award; Chelsea Poland of South Burlington, who received the Service to Vermonters award; Agatha Kessler

NECI Chef Wins Silver at Salon of
Culinary Art Competition
VSECU has selected three award recipients
whose monthly student loans will be paid by the
credit union, up to a total amount of $5,000 for
each individual.
Earlier this year VSECU developed Student
Loan Independence for Today (LIFT), a loan re-
payment program, to help lift the burden of stu-
dent debt. Unlike a college scholarship that typi-
cally pays a lump sum in advance of completing
higher education, VSECU wanted to award indi-
viduals who have already proven their commit-
ment to their education. The award is designed to
help reduce the financial stress of making stu-
dent loan payments while also struggling to
make ends meet while looking for a job, manag-
ing monthly cash flow or trying to take care of
other financial responsibilities.
There were 114 applications considered for
one of three awards in the categories of Essay,
Service to Vermonters and Financial Literacy.
Its almost a double edge sword that a college
degree is needed to be hired for a good paying
job but at the same time, the cost of obtaining
that degree is costly as tuition continues to rise
and employment rates, especially for younger
people, are low or in low paying jobs in this
market, said Jana Bagwell, VSECU Board
Director and Chair of Community Contributions.
Carrying that debt can sometimes make it
almost impossible to make ends meet.
According to a recent study by the Project on
Student Debt at The Institute for College Access
& Success, the increase in student loan debt con-
tinues to grow faster than inflation. Vermont
ranks eighth among all states for having the most
student debt with 63% of students carrying an
average debt of $28,273 as a 2011 graduate. New
Hampshire ranks as the state with the highest
average student debt of $32,440 and 75% of all
students having debt.
The award program was open to any Vermont
resident member who could demonstrate current
student debt. We received applications from
new graduates and from individuals who are still
carrying debt from earning a college degree
years ago, said Bagwell. One of the award
recipients graduated eight years ago and is still
trying to manage a monthly cash flow for basic
living expenses while paying down an outstand-
ing student loan balance of $30,000.
Agatha Kessler received the Financial Literacy
award by creating a childrens book she authored
and illustrated to teach the importance of manag-
ing savings responsibly. Kessler intends to pub-
lish the book and VSECU will purchase and
donate the books to elementary school libraries
around the state. Through the Student LIFT
program, VSECU took my small sketchbook
idea and helped turn it into a colorful reality.
Vermont is very lucky to have a credit union that
truly invests and believes in its members, said
Kessler.
VSECU intends to offer the award program
again in late spring 2013.
VSECU is a not for profit banking alternative
for all Vermonters. People eligible to join the
credit union include everybody who lives or
works in Vermont. For more information about
VSECU, call 802/800 371-5162 or visit www.

WNUB Celebrates 45 Years of College Radio
VHC Chooses Poetry Anthology for Vermont Reads 2013
For the tenth anniversary season of its popu-
lar Vermont Reads program, the Vermont
Humanities Council has chosen a poetry anthol-
ogy, Poetry 180: A Turning Back to Poetry, as
its Vermont Reads book for 2013. The poems in
the anthology were selected by former United
States Poet Laureate Billy Collins to make
poetry more accessible to readers.
Vermont Reads is VHCs statewide, one-book
community reading program that began in 2003.
Collins created Poetry 180, a poem-a-day
anthology, to make poetry less daunting. This is
an assembly of clear, contemporary poems
which any listener could basically get on first
hearingpoems whose injection of pleasure is
immediate. The book offers engaging, enjoyable
poems for students and adults of all ages.
The poetry in this collection is drawn from a
wide range of poets and is well-written, contempo-
rary, and accessible, said Mark Fitzsimmons,
VHCs Vermont Reads director. It is selected to
act as an open door for students and indeed all readers to enter into
the world of poetry and to begin to discover its power and beau-
ty.
The title, Poetry 180, comes from the fact that there are about
180 days in the school year, and so schools might choose to focus
on one poem each day. The books subtitle, A Turning Back to
Poetry, is a play on words, suggesting that our society should
make a 180-degree turn, back to a time when poetry played a
greater role in the lives of Americans.
Collins, whose book is inspired by his poem-a-day program with
the Library of Congress, has been one of Americas great ambas-
sadors of poetry. The New York Times has called him the most
popular poet in America, and he is known internationally for
work that is wry, generous, and accessible, and that connects with
a wide variety of readers on multiple levels. He is the author of
thirteen books of poetry, and has had his work published in Poetry,
American Poetry Review, American Scholar, Harpers, Paris
Review, and The New Yorker.
Collins is one of Americas favorite poets, and
his sensibilities are evident in this collection,
said Fitzsimmons. The poems he selects are
both humorous and serious, they are often
grounded in the everyday details of life, but they
ascend from there to profound observation,
engaging both the head and the heart.
Communities around the state will have the
opportunity to bring people together to read,
discuss, and build activities around the book.
Vermont Reads promotes community-building,
open dialogue, intergenerational exchange, a
focus on the humanities, and literacy.
Vermont Reads activities include book dis-
cussions, read-a-thons, staged dramatic read-
ings, panel discussions, art projects and exhib-
its, community potlucks, and writing contests.
Communities can also participate in many
poetry-related events around Vermont during
the year, including taking part in National Poetry Month; PoemCity
in Montpelier; book festivals featuring poets in Burlington,
Brattleboro, and Woodstock; and attending VHCs First
Wednesdays, Speakers Bureau, and Reading and Discussion pro-
grams related to poetry.
Vermont Public Radio will also air features that offer excellent
opportunities for further discussion
NRG Systems of Hinesburg is the underwriter of the 2013
Vermont Reads program; they have underwritten the program
since 2007. The media partner is Vermont Public Radio.
Each year, approximately 65-100 Vermont townsand thou-
sands of peopletake part in Vermont Reads. Nearly eighty com-
munities took part in 2012.
Communities that apply will receive up to 75 books, based on
the strength of their application, as well as multiple resource and
publicity materials. To apply, visit www.vermonthumanities.org or
contact Mark Fitzsimmons at mfitzsimmons@vermonthumanities.
org or call 802.262.2626 x 306.

Lt. Governor Phil Scott presented the Vermont Disaster Relief
Fund with a $1,000 personal donation last week as part of the
Relief Funds State House Challenge kickoff event.
The State House Challenge is part of a campaign to remind
Vermonters that many of our neighbors are still suffering from the
impact of Tropical Storm Irene. Although 17 months have passed
and the effects may not be as visible as they were a year ago, some
500 Vermont families continue to live in damaged homes that
present a health and safety risk. The VDRF estimates that it needs
to raise an additional $3 million dollars to fully meet this need.
The idea behind the State House Challenge is to give state
leaders an opportunity to lead the way in this renewed fundraising
push. The campaign challenges legislators, statewide elected offi-
cials, lobbyists and the political press corps all of the State
House stakeholders -- to contribute to relief efforts and give more
visibility to the ongoing need.
Lt. Governor Scotts $1,000 donation is one he pledged to the
Fund this past October, to coincide with a 10-day statewide bicy-
cle tour that was part campaign event, part staycation. Scott felt
it appropriate not to accept his official salary for that time that he
was away from his office, and decided to put those foregone funds
toward Vermonts Irene victims.
My bike tour gave me an opportunity to see the state up-close,
and at a slower pace than you can from a car, Scott said. One of
the big impressions I had from that tour was the number of homes
still dislodged from their foundations, the amount of debris still in
rivers, and so forth -- a year after Irene. I felt a strong need to
contribute to this ongoing effort to make sure every Vermonter is
restored to pre-Irene security.
Scott also noted that Vermonters can continue to purchase
Vermont Strong license plates from the Lieutenant Governors
office.

Norwich Universitys radio station, WNUB (88.3 FM), celebrat-
ed 45 years of operations on Friday, Dec. 7 with an Open House
and live broadcasts throughout the afternoon.
The station, led by then-general manager Leo P. Soucy, joined
the Intercollegiate Broadcasting System and the National
Association of Educational Broadcasting in 1967 and began oper-
ating on Dec. 8 of that year. The station currently airs program-
ming continuously, 24/7, and offers a dozen or so mostly evening
radio shows with hosts. Depending on the semester, 12-25 stu-
dents participate in running the station as part of Norwichs bach-
elors degree in communications.
This year WNUB expanded its programming to reflect its bur-
geoning philosophy of reaching beyond the campus and into the
local community with programs such as weekly news and sports
updates from the Northfield News and public affairs programming
including periodic Northfield News & Views interview pro-
grams.
Other changes include significant additions to the music playlist
planned over the next several months and additional special event
broadcasts such as the broadcasting of this years Town Meeting.
This year WNUB broadcasted live during all three days of
Northfields Labor Day weekend celebration the states largest
airing continuous coverage from the stage for 10 hours that
Saturday and Sunday and three hours Monday afternoon.
Also, Communications Instructor and WNUB Faculty Advisor
Doug Smith said his goal is for the station to be streaming over the
internet within a year.
We are so proud to serve not only the Norwich community but
also the larger Northfield community, and we look forward to
another 45 years, Smith said.
Fridays celebration at the WNUB studios featured Dex Rowe, a
disc jockey who worked in radio during that early era, who played
the top 45 45s from 45 years ago in honor of the stations 45th
birthday. In the afternoon, the Morning Jam guys, Mark Albury
and Joe Zuaro from the Saturday morning show, were on live with
the best rock and talk this side of the Dog River. The public was
invited to stop by the station Friday afternoon for food and fun.

D
uring the holidays, nearly every pop-
ular magazine includes an article on
how to cope with the extra chal-
lenges that are part of this season. At some
point, most of us feel overwhelmed because
of fatigue, changes in normal routine, unreal-
istic expectations, memories and losses, too
much commercialization, nancial pressures,
eating too much and too much partying.
As difcult as it is for many of us to
navigate the holidays, says Win Turner, PhD, LADC, program
director for the Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center Addiction
Treatment Program, its even more challenging for those who are
in recovery from substance use and who are trying to maintain
sobriety. At just about every turn beginning with Thanksgiving
and continuing through the New Year - there are temptations that
can change the season of cheer into a season of regret for people
at risk of relapse.
The DHMC Addiction Treatment Program and the DHMC Em-
ployee Assistance Program offer the following tips for a healthy,
happy and sober holiday season.
1. Set realistic goals and set limits for yourself.
Dont get bogged down with someone elses expectations, do what
works best for you. If youre in recovery from addiction to alcohol
or drugs, addiction to food, or from co-dependence, your recovery
work should continue to be your number one priority.
2. Stick with the basics for good health.
Get plenty of rest, eat three balanced meals a day and get some ex-
ercise to keep the endorphins happy. Keep your blood sugar level
balanced, and watch your intake of nicotine and caffeine.

3. Stay connected to friends with healthy attitudes.
Be in touch with others who make healthy choices and others in
recovery. These are the folks who understand what you need and
how you feel. If you feel like youre losing control, attend more
meetings and if you have a sponsor, keep in touch. Dont feel
guilted into spending time with people who are negative or non-
supportive of healthy choices.

4. Make plans for how to cope with holiday parties where you
know that alcohol, drugs or an over abundance of sweets will
be available.
Remember that it is all right to avoid a party all together. If you
must attend a holiday party with alcohol, drugs, or tons of tempting
cookies, cakes, and other sweets, take along a couple of recovery
friends for moral support, or have their phone numbers handy. Its
also a good idea to arrive late and leave early. If you think there
might not be any non-alcoholic drinks, bring along your own.

5. Create new ways to celebrate.
Some old traditions (people, places and events) might trigger nega-
tive urges, so plan some new activities like hosting a tree trimming
party, or a holiday poetry reading, or an ornament or wreath-mak-
ing workshop. Use your imagination!

6. Understand that this might be an emotional time for you and
make a survival plan.
Adopt a slogan that will help you refocus your energy when you
begin to have unpleasant feelings. Practice saying it often, so that
it will be right there when needed. Something like One day at a
time or HALT which is shorthand for not letting yourself get
too hungry, angry, lonely or tired.

7. TV timeout.
Cut down on TV watching. Many of the commercials and the story
lines are full of people drinking and eating at parties. Why tempt
yourself unnecessarily?

8. Keep busy.
There are lots of free holiday concerts, performances, and volun-
teer opportunities during this season.

9. Do something nice for someone.
Do something thoughtful for an elderly neighbor or family mem-
ber. Take a child skating or sledding. Volunteer at a soup kitchen or
wrap gifts for a nonprot. The options are endless.

10. Do something nice for yourself.
Treat yourself gently: pamper yourself with a massage, attend a
hockey game, take a bubble bath or go out to a favorite restaurant.
Remember, the best gift you can give yourself, your family and
friends is to stick to your recovery plan. Theres no better way to
spread the spirit of the season!
A gift for you this holiday season!

10 Tips for Staying Healthy, Happy and Sober During the Holidays
Dont Let Holiday Celebrations End Tragically...
Buzzed Driving is Drunk Driving

The holidays are a wonderful time of year, filled with celebra-
tions, time with loved ones and good cheer. But, for the 775 fami-
lies whose loved ones were killed during December 2010 in
alcohol-impaired-driving crashes, the joyous celebrations ended
in disaster.
Thats why The Washington County Sheriffs Department is
joining with highway safety partners and law enforcement organi-
zations across the country this December to remind people that
during the holidays and throughout the year, drinking alcohol and
driving do not mix and that Buzzed Driving is Drunk Driving.
Drinking and driving is never a good combination, and its just
not worth the risk, said Sheriff Hill. Driving a vehicle or riding
a motorcycle while intoxicated jeopardizes your safety and the
safety of others on our roads. If you are going to drink, plan
another way home before the celebration begins, and encourage
your friends and family to do the same.
According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration,
32,885 people were killed in motor vehicle crashes during 2010
and 31 percent (10,228) of those fatalities involved alcohol-
impaired drivers.
The holiday season is particularly dangerous. During December
2010, 2,597 people lost their lives in motor vehicle crashes, and
775 of those were killed in crashes involving alcohol-impaired
drivers.
This tragic loss of life can be reduced if we get impaired drivers
off our roadways, said Sheriff Hill. Thats why we are working
hard to remind everyone to never drink and drive.
This holiday season, Washington County Sheriffs Department
is encouraging people to take three simple steps to ensure their
holiday celebrations dont end in tragedy.
1. Plan ahead; be sure to designate a sober driver before the
party begins.
2. If you will be drinking, do not plan on driving. Even one drink
too many increases the risk of a crash while driving a motor
vehicle. If you are impaired, find another way home. Use a taxi,
call a sober friend or family member, or use public transporta-
tion.
3. Be responsible. If someone you know is drinking, do not let
that person get behind the wheel. If you see an impaired driver on
the road, contact law enforcement. Your actions may save some-
ones life, and inaction could cost a life.
The holidays should be a time for celebration, not tragedy,
Sheriff Hill said. Please help us make Washington Countys road-
ways safe by never driving after drinking. Remember, Buzzed
Driving is Drunk Driving, so never drink and drive.
For more than eighteen years now my humble column has
appeared, on a bi-weekly basis, in The WORLD, Central
Vermonts favorite newspaper. (Note: If you looked for the
column every other week, but started on the wrong week,
you missed it completely.) This book is a collection of many
of those writings, so you have another chance. The earliest
ones are not here, as pasting stories from slate tablets onto
word documents is a difcult thing to do.
-If you nd any bits of wisdom between these covers,
its not my fault.-

A
fter having a long discussion with
both my cardiologist and my den-
tist, both of whom I absolutely love,
I have decided to share with you a very per-
sonal episode in my life. And I am doing
this because they both encouraged me to do
so and because I hope it will encourage you
to change your ways too, or at least share my experience with your
friends and loved ones.
As you know, I had a stroke in September, and I had no idea that
was what was happening to me. I woke up and had double vision!
I called my ophthalmologist and of course, he had me come right
in. But he was unable to gure out what was wrong, so he sent me
home and told me to rest and hopefully my eyes would clear up. I
did, but about 3pm he called me and said that he had been thinking
about me and he said that I should go, right away and not to wait
a minute, to the emergency room because he thought that it was
possible that I was having a stroke. Of
course, I thought that he was wrong but
I was impressed that he would take the
time to call me, so I got Malcolm and he
whisked me to the hospital.
As soon as we arrived at the emergen-
cy room of Cape Cod Hospital, we met
Sarah and Rene there and they insisted
that I sit in a wheelchair to be brought
in. So, I sat down and immediately threw up! Not once but several
times, and really embarrassed myself. And, of course, I was hav-
ing a stroke, was admitted and spent 2 days in the hospital. I had
every test known to mankind and received terric care. But what
I really wanted to share with you was what happened just before I
was to be released and could go home.
The doctor, Armad Shahzad, who had been my doctor while in
the hospital, came in to not only say good-bye but to give me some
advice. First and foremost, he told me how lucky I was to have
survived this stroke without any noticeable side effects. But, he
said, When you have your next stroke you wont be so lucky!
Please, note he said when I would have another stroke, not if. And
he then said, let me show you what you can expect and he then
screwed up his face and put a crippled up hand to his face and told
me that this was what I would look like after the next stroke. Ex-
cept that one side of my face would be paralyzed and there would
be a long string of drool hanging from my mouth. And of course,
he added, you probably will also be paralyzed on one side and will
have to walk like this. He then limped across the room and dragged
his foot.
Please be sure to understand that I really, really liked this man
and had already had terric talks about his home country of Paki-
stan and how much he loved the USA and especially Vermont! But
what I also understood was that he was trying to make me under-
stand that if I continued to ignore my blood sugar and my blood
pressure, I would no longer be able to continue to live the life I had
then. He made it extremely clear that a stroke was in my future if I
continued to be a stupid and ignorant fool. And friends, for the rst
time in my entire life, I understood what he was saying. This was
probably not the rst time I had been warned, but it was the rst
time I actually saw what was in my future.
I want to tell you that it has been more than three full months
since he and I had our talk and he did his act for me, and I
have not only watched my blood sugar and my blood pressure, I
have absolutely changed my ways! For the rst time in 73 years
I have my blood sugar in control.
I watch every morsel that goes
into my mouth and if and when I
think that something looks good
that I shouldnt eat, I think of Dr.
Shahzad and I close my lips. And
my blood pressure is right where it
should be! Thanks be to God and
Dr. Shahzad.
Now, I know that there are people who would have found his
bedside manner and his act of what was in my future, unaccept-
able. But I am denitely not one of these people. For the rst time
in my life I was shocked and appalled into behaving myself and
changing my ways. I want to live as long as I can and I now under-
stand that if I dont behave and keep myself under control, I will
die and it will be a horrible and embarrassing death. I know that
many of you are saying, well it has only been three months, lets
see how she is doing in three years. And, you know, I understand
your skepticism. But when I think about the whole scenario, I think
about my eight grandchildren and my four children and their part-
ners, and of course Malcolm, and I know that I want to see what is
in their futures. I now know that this will only be possible if I keep
very strong control on myself. And when I think about that, I also
think, is any piece of candy, cake, pie or even roll of white bread
worth giving that up? And for me, the answer is absolutely not!
Keep dancing and acting, Dr. Shahzad, and thank you from the
bottom of my heart!
Part IV in a Series
A
re at 7pm on January 6, 1857 created
the need to construct a third State-
house. The Statehouse was being
heated for a septennial event, a constitutional convention. It is still
a mystery where the convention met. The local newspapers did not
report on the location. According to both Paul Gillies and Gregory
Sanford, who compiled the record of the Council of Censors, the
location may have been a church in Montpelier or the Washing-
ton County Courthouse. At this convention, amendments were de-
feated that would have included a four-year term for state senators
and a House of Representatives based upon population rather than
having each town allocated an individual representative.
The re was fought by a substantial number of Montpelier citi-
zens who carried chunks of snow to help put out the blaze. There
were no pumps to supply water from the Winooski. Other citizens
tried to clear everything that was moveable from the Statehouse.
The Washington portrait was taken in its frame by four men who
held it high above their heads to keep it from injury. Much of the
library was saved in much the same way. Papers from the Secre-
tary of States ofce were saved and much of the collection of the
Vermont Historical Society.
The re was at work under the raised oor and up the partitions,
and as sudden as a blast from a cannon, it burst out around the base
of the dome. The oors were falling in and men in the library had
to jump for their lives out of the windows. Fortunately, no one was
killed or seriously injured. The sight of the burning building was
both grand and terrible. The strong west wind that then prevailed
blew a mass of live coals far over all the buildings east of the re,
and the morning after, the roofs of all the houses were covered with
charcoal, showing that snow on the roofs alone saved these build-
ings. By 11 oclock, everything burnable was destroyed, with only
the granite walls where our beautiful Statehouse had been.
While the building was out of use, the Senate convened in the
Washington County Courthouse and the House met in a church.
As a result of the re, a special session was called and the choice
of the location of the capitol was between Burlington and Mont-
pelier. The ensuing debate is discussed by Harold Bailey in an ar-
ticle entitled, The Vermont State House. These were the reasons
given why Montpelier should not be the capital:
Montpelier was unhealthy, it had fogs, and members of the leg-
islature became sick as soon as they arrived.
Montpelier had no scenery. It was a hole in the hills, and it was
so out of the way that travelers would never see the State House,
and if they did, it would be crowded right against a hill.
It was not central. It might have been once, but not since the
iron horse had come in.
Montpelier had been a capitol long enough. There wasnt any
obligation on the part of the state to maintain it any longer.
The people drank most nonchalantly and outed the state pro-
hibition law.
Burlington came in for its share of criticism as well. Burlington
was considered unhealthy. One of the House members said, The
north and northwest winds carry all the vapor and dampness of
the Lake from Plattsburgh and throw them directly on Burlington.
Some physicians of Burlington have, for many years, taught the
necessity of shutting houses in winter. In November double win-
dows were usually put up and not open until April. Another criti-
cism was that a female was rarely seen in the street. I have visited
150 cities in Europe and this country, yet my impression is I never
saw so much consumption anywhere as in Burlington in propor-
tion to its population in the same class of people. The disease was
chiey with the best people. Burlingtons situation on the Lake
was dangerous from a military point of view. A Statehouse located
there would be exposed to British cannonballs.
Burlington was Yorkish in character. It was not typical of Ver-
mont. To go to Burlington was like going out of the state. The cost
of living would have been much higher in Burlington. Hotels and
meals in Burlington would be $2 a day, while it was only $1.50 in
Montpelier. One legislator said, As to the morals of Burlington,
the case of someone having his pocket picked at the state fair was
mentioned. What kind of a place would that be for a capital?
Next week: Third Statehouse is constructed

Your
Christmas Tree Can
Trigger Allergies
Both real and artificial Christmas
trees can be a source of allergies. An
artificial tree that has not been
stored properly can be a source of
mold and dust. It helps to wipe the
tree clean before putting it up. Real
trees can release pollen and mold as
they dry out. Spraying the tree down
with a garden hose helps remove
the pollen. If you react to tree sap
wear glasses and a long sleeve shirt
when handling a real tree.

Easy Decadent
Chocolate Truffles
1/2 c. heavy whipping cream
12 oz best quality semisweet chocolate, chopped
into small pieces, or 2 c. semisweet chocolate
chips
6 T. unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
3 T. cocoa powder
In a small heavy saucepan, bring the cream
gently to a simmer over medium low heat.
Remove from heat and stir in the chocolate and
butter. Stir mixture just until the chocolate has
completely melted, using very low heat if neces-
sary. Remove from heat. Pour the chocolate
mixture into a shallow bowl, and allow to cool.
Cover tightly and refrigerate until firm, at least
two hours or overnight.
Line a cookie sheet or platter with baking
parchment or waxed paper. Dip a teaspoon or
small scoop such as a melon baller into warm
water and scrape across the surface of the truf-
fle mixture to form a 1-inch ball. Quickly roll
balls in cocoa powder. Repeat with the remain-
ing truffle mixture. Cover and refrigerate truf-
fles. Serve in paper candy cups which are
available in cookware shops or where cake
decorating items are sold.
G
et ready to ensure and protect your holiday fun
by saving space in your suitcase or carry-on for
smart tools that let you stay ahead of seasonal-travel
health hazards. Theyll help you fight off colds and
flu viruses, digestive-system discomforts, sleep prob-
lems and extra stress. That way, youll stay healthy
on car trips and airline flights, during hotel stays and
whenever youre away from home.
Take an empty plastic travel mug or water bottle,
and a bag or two of healthy snacks. Stay hydrated
and energized on the road the way Dr. Mike does. Tote a container
for water: You can fill it up at a water fountain or bathroom tap
after youve passed through airport security. Use it for water (or
coffee or tea refills) on the plane, and again at your destination to
stay hydrated while youre exercising. And for snacking, pack
nuts, sliced red pepper, baby carrots and a piece of fruit in zipper-
lock bags. Water and fiber-rich snacks keep your digestive system
working right!
Pack alcohol-based sanitizing wipes. We dont think hotel
germs pose a huge risk to your health, but a recent report raised
alarms about bacteria levels in even the fanciest hotels. Give light
switches, sink faucets and the TV remote a quick rub-down with a
sanitizing wipe. (Dont use anything thats labeled antibacterial
-- those products contribute to antibiotic resistance, and alcohol
does the job without causing problems.) Same goes for the table,
if you plan to eat there. Bonus: Pull the top sheet, which is always
freshly laundered, up over the edge of the bed covering or com-
forter (which usually is not washed between hotel guests), before
you go to bed. The comforter was one of the germiest objects, next
to light switches and TV remotes (you can always put those in a
baggie and use them through the plastic).
Carry alcohol-based hand sanitizer and vitamin D-3. The holi-
day season is also the height of cold and flu season. Use hand
sanitizer frequently, as its your first line of defense. And get your
flu shot! Bonus: Popping 1,000 IU of vitamin D-3 daily can slash
flu risk by half.
Bring warm winter gear. Heading to a colder climate? Make
room in your suitcase for a coat, sweater, hat, scarf,
gloves and boots, even if youre not sure youll need
them. A dip in temperature from what youre used to
increases your risk for stroke (7 percent) and heart
attack (12 percent). Bonus: Youll be ready to de-
stress by tossing snowballs or walking in a winter
wonderland.
Take walking shoes and a heart-rate monitor. Short
days, long nights and the years lowest levels of
natural light can conspire with travel strains and fam-
ily dramas to deflate your mood. Comfortable, supportive shoes
will help you take regular, mood-boosting exercise breaks. Dr.
Mike insists on an hour for exercise every day hes on the road.
(That helps keep his RealAge younger.) Try walking breaks during
long drives -- a stay-sharp move that can help you remain alert in
traffic on some of the most challenging driving days of the year.
Also, stroll the aisle every hour on the plane, as Dr. Mike does.
And use walking shoes and the heart-rate monitor to help you
escape -- er, exercise -- outdoors when the holiday house gets too
crowded.
Bring an alarm clock. Love staying up late to catch up with
friends and family? Do your level best to get up at your usual time.
Youll slash your risk for post-holiday social jet lag -- those
groggy, early January days when your body clock tries to readjust
to your regular schedule. Maintaining a consistent morning wake-
up time, and getting morning exposure to sunlight, keeps your
sleep-wake cycle set to normal. (Grab a short, early afternoon
nap if youre tired; 26 minutes is ideal.) Bonus: Sidestepping
social jet lag also can help you avoid extra snacking that packs on
pounds.

Whats In Your Holiday Travel Survival Kit?
BY MICHAEL ROIZEN, M.D., AND MEHMET OZ, M.D.
Parents have been pressuring me to give them some
tips to help their children and teens deal with peer pres-
sure. Well let me see if I can decompress some of their
concerns and provide some information on this topic.
Peer pressure can have both positive and negative
effects on your child. If a peer of your childs teaches
your child how to play a sport better or learn something
in school, then that is a positive benefit of having peers.
Sometimes however, peers can have a negative influ-
ence and despite this, children will go along with that influence to
be liked, to fit in or to prevent being made fun of.
So what can you do if your child is being pressured to engage
in activities that could be harmful or that make them feel uncom-
fortable?
Talk about dealing with peer pressure openly with your children
and continue to do so as they get older.
Give them some strategies to say no, such as to try changing
the subject, changing the plan (Lets go play basketball instead),
or even blaming you as parents or grandparents (Ill be grounded
for life). You could also tell them to simply say theyre in training
if they play a sport, if they are being asked to take risks they dont
want to take such as to try smoking or drinking.
Tell your child to listen to their gut. If they feel uncomfortable
even if their friends are ok with whats going on, then
they shouldnt go further into that situation.
Arrange a bail-out code phrase that will prevent your
child from losing face such as having him or her call
home to say they are not feeling well (and they probably
arent due to the stress of peer pressure).
Have your child find a friend who believes in standing
up to peer pressure as well two can be easier than one
in resisting.
Finally, if the situation is dangerous, remind your child
that it is important to seek adult help before anyone gets hurt.
Hopefully youll pay attention to these tips so your child or teen
is not feeling pressured when it comes to dealing with peer pres-
sure.

VCIL Decries Senate Vote
On International Treaty
The Vermont Center for Independent Living is disturbed at the
outcome of the vote held in the U.S. Senate last Tuesday defeating
ratification of the Convention on the Rights of Persons with
Disabilities.
CRPD is a treaty that describes the obligations of ratifying coun-
tries to promote, protect, fulfill and ensure the rights of persons with
disabilities. The treaty embodies the American ideals that form the
basis of the Americans with Disabilities Act empowering persons
with disabilities to be independent and productive citizens.
Sarah Launderville, executive director of VCIL, traveled to
Washington, D.C. early this week and was watching as the vote took
place.
I looked around at leaders of our country as they ripped from
those of us in the disability rights community a voice on the
Committee on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities, she said,
referring to the assembly set up by the CRPD.
The partisan politics that played out in front of my eyes was a
hard pill to swallow, said
Launderville. Misinformation
resulted in swaying a vote that
cut the U.S. disability commu-
nity out of a voice at the table.
The United States signed the
CRPD on July 30, 2009, joining
141 other signing nations. On
May 17, 2012, following almost
three years of inter-agency
review, the Obama administra-
tion submitted its treaty package
to the Senate for its advice and
consent for ratification.
Signature of a treaty only con-
veys preliminary endorsement
and demonstrates a countrys
intent to examine the treaty
domestically and consider ratifi-
cation. Ratification of the CRPD
would have shown the serious
commitment of the United States
to disability rights.
Launderville commended
Vermont senators Bernie Sanders
and Patrick Leahy for voting for
the treaty. She said, I was proud
that our Senators saw past the
lies and understood the intent of
the treaty and the opportunities
it brought our country.
VCIL will not give up on this
important work. Launderville
noted, As we continue to work
to protect the expected budget
cuts, attacks on Social Security
and Medicare we continue to
remain vigilant and reach out to
those in the disability commu-
nity and allies to join us in our
efforts.

Staple of Holiday Decor Has a Deep History
Chances are, holiday revelers will find them-
selves underneath the mistletoe at least once this
holiday season. While they might know what to do
when that time comes, they might not know the his-
tory of that plant above their heads.
Especially sacred to Celtic Druids, mistletoe was
believed bestow life and fertility, while also protect-
ing against poison and serving as an aphrodisiac.
Nowadays, mistletoe is typically hung in door-
ways or entryways from one room to another. This
tradition can also trace itself back several centuries
to the Middle Ages. During the Middle Ages,
branches of mistletoe were hung from ceilings to
ward off evil spirits. Throughout Europe, mistletoe
was placed over doorways in the house as well as
the stables as a means to preventing the entrance of
witches.
The tradition of kissing underneath the mistletoe
likely stems from the belief that mistletoe bestows
fertility and is often associated with the Roman
festival of Saturnalia, a period of merrymaking that
pre-dated Christmas. In 18th century England, a
young lady standing underneath the mistletoe could
not refuse to be kissed. Once kissed, the kiss would
signify deep romance or eternal friendship.
History also suggests that mistletoe was a symbol
of peace. In Scandinavia, mistletoe was considered
a plant of peace. When standing underneath the
mistletoe, enemies could declare a truce and spous-
es could end any marital turmoil with a kiss.

HORSE-DRAWN RIDE EVERY SUNDAY
Forty people gathered at the Gazebo in downtown Barre on November 24th during Barres Open House to
get the inside scoop on where the Cash Mob Coins were located before mobbing Main Street!
Cash Mob Barre Partners With Granite City
Grocery to Support Downtown Merchants
On Saturday, November 24th, over 100 people
participated in the Cash Mob Main Street event
designed to bring more shoppers downtown dur-
ing Barres Open House. The more stores people
shopped, the more Cash Mob Coins they
could collect to be entered into a drawing to win
one of 7 gift certificates to downtown stores or a
membership valued at $200 to Granite City
Grocery, a proposed community-owned grocery
store for downtown Barre. The Cash Mob
helped boost my sales for the day and brought
people into my store that hadnt been here
before, said Mollie Brault-Binaghi, owner of
Copy World.
The Cash Mob also benefited Granite City
Grocery. Everyone who participated in the Cash
Mob had to redeem their coins for the drawing
at the Granite City Grocery table outside of
Wobby Jewelers. We had over 40 people sign
up for more information over the course of just
3 hours, said organizer Emily Kaminsky. It
was a great way to get the word out. And, the
winner of the Granite City Grocery membership
was Ilona Melkumova!
The next Cash Mob in downtown Barre will
be March 2013 in celebration of National Cash
Mob Day. To stay connected with Cash Mob
Barre, go to www.facebook.com/CashMobBarre.
For more about Granite City Grocery, go to
www.granitecitygrocery.coop. For more infor-
mation on both efforts, contact organizer Emily
Kaminsky at 802-279-7518.

Know-How
Let It Shine!
This holiday season,
try on a little sparkle
and shine for size.
When l ooki ng at
holiday attire, consider
fabrics with shimmer
and shine. Theyre
luxurious and not
loud. Velours, satins, and even silks are
fabrics that are perfect for the holiday
season. They feel good and make
you feel good while youre in them.
If youre the daring kind try adding
a little glitz. Dress up these wonderful
fabrics with crystals, diamonds, or even
cubic zirconia! If youre not the type
to wear sparkles ordinarily, then the
holiday season is the perfect time to
step outside of your comfort box. If that
idea is too much try a beaded scarf.
Celebrate the light of the season with
a little shimmer and sparkle!
Happy Holidays!

ARIES (March 21 to April 19)
Make a start on that new workplace
challenge. But get more information
before you find yourself too deeply
involved without knowing in which
direction you should go.
TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) You might find things becoming tedious
as your schedule slows down for the holidays. Use this time to get infor-
mation about a possible post-New Year job change.
GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) The creative Twin finds outlets for her or
his ideas in the early part of the week. The practical Twin takes it a step
further and rallies support to turn the ideas into reality.
CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Its time to stop being intimidated by
someones negative behavior. Start taking positive steps on your own to
help strengthen your position down the line.
LEO (July 23 to August 22) Look closely at that so-called golden oppor-
tunity. Best to be a cautious Cat who approaches things slowly, than one
who pounces without knowing where youll land.
VIRGO (August 23 to September 22) Your apology can resolve that
personal situation before it overshadows the holidays. Youll feel better,
even if youre only partly to blame for what happened.
LIBRA (September 23 to October 22) Avoid overtaxing yourself, even
if your energy levels are high and you feel that you can do it all. Best to
pace yourself so you wont run yourself down before the holidays.
SCORPIO (October 23 to November 21) Your sense of humor helps get
you through a stressful period. Some of your quick quips can take the edge
off any remaining negativity being aimed at you.
SAGITTARIUS (November 22 to December 21) Your artistic talents not
only help you express yourself these days, but they also set up a line of
communication between you and someone very special.
CAPRICORN (December 22 to January 19) Its fine to appreciate the
importance of proper form for doing things. But relax a bit in order to
allow newcomers on the project to feel less intimidated by you.
AQUARIUS (January 20 to February 18) Use your boundless reserve
of optimism to persuade others to work with you to resolve a difficult
workplace problem before it can ruin your holiday fun.
PISCES (February 19 to March 20) You brim over with self-confidence
as you begin to tackle a new challenge. And, before you know it, youre
not alone: Others have taken the plunge with you.
(c) 2012 King Features Synd., Inc.

Thought for the Day:
If at first you dont succeed,
try again. Then quit. No use
being a damn fool about it.

Youll be able to find beautiful holiday
decorations at these fine locations.
Christmas trees are available from a variety of
sources garden centers or nurseries, local retail
lots and choose-and-cut tree farms. This factsheet
can help you select a fresh tree and explains the
characteristics of different types of Christmas
trees.
CHOOSING A FRESH CUT TREE
Precut Trees: Follow these points to choose the
freshest precut tree.
* Purchase the tree early so that it can go in
water closer to the time when it was cut.
* Consider that locally grown trees are usually
fresher than trees that have been shipped from
a distance. They are also generally less expen-
sive.
* Select a tree that is at least one foot
shorter than the ceiling height in the
room where you will display your
tree.
* Be sure to look at the trunk. If you
can see splits in the trunk, the tree
most likely will have dried to a point
where it will not take up water.
* Make sure the base of the trunk is
straight and 6 to 8 inches long to
allow placement in the tree stand.
* Look for a tree with a healthy, green
appearance and few dead or
browning needles. Avoid trees with
a wilted look.
* Run your hand along a branch.
Needles should be fresh and flexible
and should not come off in your hand.
* Bump the trunk of the tree on the ground. If
green needles fall off the tree, it is not fresh.
You can expect a few brown needles to fall
from the tree. Choose another tree if many
brown needles fall off.
CUT-YOUR-OWN TREES
Trees at choose-and-cut farms are usually cheaper
than at retail lots, and trees that are growing in a
field will be fresh and full of water. Most farms
have several different species to choose from.
Many also provide hand saws and will help you
load your tree. Some farms will let you preselect
a tree and tag it for later cutting.

Theater often collaborate with each

Montpelier. One might expect that
the pair can host a great party and
one would be absolutely correct.
Members and friends of the Central Vermont
Chamber of Commerce were treated to a great evening
last Wednesday when the two groups co-hosted a busi-
ness mixer. More than 50 people enjoyed a warm
welcome and gracious hospitality in the Montpelier
City Hall Auditorium. Guests engaged in informal
networking while sampling light refreshments by
Skinny Pancake. Many stayed to enjoy a performance
of Its a Wonderful Life, a Live Radio Play immedi-
ately afterward.

Lost Nation is approaching its 25th year of providing
New York-quality theater to the nations smallest capi-
tal city. Artistic Director Kim Bent briefly praised the
strong bond between Vermont theater and the states
vibrant downtowns.
Phayvanh Luekhamhan, executive director of
Montpelier Alive, said the downtown association could
accomplish little without the active participation of
numerous organizations, committed volunteers, and
community support. She noted highlights of an aggres-
sive events schedule in place for 2013.
Both Montpelier Alive and the Chamber urged resi-
dents to shop locally for the holidays. The downtown
association issues Capital City Cash that can be used at
a wide variety of Montpelier merchants, and the
Chamber has just launched a discount coupon program
with more than 80 local businesses participating. Both
are aimed at bringing greater focus to the value of
shopping locally.
Shortly before the opening curtain, door prizes from
Morse Farm, Betsys B& B, and Lost Nation and
Montpelier Alive were awarded to Sen. William Doyle,
Linda Ingold, John Gales of Best of Central Vermont
magazine, Joe Hayes of ECS, and Steve Gilman of rb
Technologies.
Peter Ricker of Denis, Ricker & Brown won the
50-50 raffle and donated his winnings to the theater
and downtown group.
Gilman, chair of the Chamber board of directors,
praised the evening as a wonderful closing act for the
organizations series of 2012 membership events.

This weekend, Moving Light Dance
Company presents The Green
Mountain Nutcracker, the holiday
dance classic with a buy-local Green
Mountain twist.
For the sixth year, Moving Light
Dance Company has gathered togeth-
er a talented cast of all ages, from
fourteen Vermont communities, to
bring this timeless story to life.
Moving Lights close to home spin
on this classic ballet has charmed its
mostly sold out audiences. There will
be two live shows of The Green
Mountain Nutcracker at the Barre
Opera House, December 15th and
16th.
A wooden Nutcracker comes to life
at midnight and a girl visits the fan-
tastical Land of Sweets, but be ready
for a few new twists. The Victorian
parlor makes way for mud boots and
a wood stove. Meet the Maple Sugar
Fairy! Youre sure to recognize the
real Vermonters and a few not so
real.
Moving Light Dance Company,
based in Berlin is committed to com-
munity-minded dance theater of the
highest caliber. Artistic Director and
Founder Christine Harris hopes to
make The Green Mountain Nutcracker a holiday tradition for
years to come. Every year there is something new to experience!
Be swept away from the very beginning of the festivities, expe-
rience Maries (Clare Neal) excitement as she receives a most
unusual gift from the mysterious Drosselmeier (Adam Fuller).
Watch the Nutcracker (Sean Beatty) battle the Rat King (Amy
Urling). Be enchanted by Marie as she visits the Land of the
Sweets and meets the Maple Sugar Fairy (Maia Avery-Padberg).
Through the magic of dance, The Green Mountain Nutcracker is
high-spirited fun for the whole family. Be transported to the realm
of imagination and midnight revels and let yourself remember the
seasons biggest gift, love. Brought to the stage with choreography
Green Mountain Nutcracker Offers Vermont Holiday Magic
by Christine Harris, Willow Wonder, Avi Waring and the dancers,
unforgettable costumes by Anne Labrusciano and Charis Churchill
set designs by Joe John and lighting by Jeffrey E. Salzberg. This
central Vermont tradition features music recreated by Colin
McCaffrey.
A magical experience should be part of every holiday season.
The Green Mountain Nutcracker will enchant you with its simple
blending of heart and home. Make the Green Mountain Nutcracker
part of your familys holiday tradition.
There will be two performances only: Saturday, December 15 at
6pm, and Sunday, December 16 at 2pm. Tickets: $12/$24. Call the

Local Restaurants Support
Toys for Kids Program
Three local restaurants are helping Vermont children have a
happy holiday by supporting the Toys for Kids program.
McGillicuddys Irish Pub in Montpelier, Mulligans in Barre, and
the new McGillicuddys at Maple Tree Place in Williston will be
collecting new, unwrapped toys from December 10th through
December 22nd and donating them to Toys for Kids.
To thank patrons for their participation in the annual toy drive,
the restaurants will give each donor a coupon for a free appetizer,
plus enter their names in a drawing for a $1,000 travel voucher.
Toys for Kids is a program of the Salvation Army and Marine
Corps League. Over the past 12 years, donations of toys, cash and
gift cards have helped make the holidays special for thousands of
area children.
We know a lot of families are struggling this year so we cre-
ated this promotion as a way to help local kids have a happy holi-
day, said Dave Nelson, owner of the three restaurants. We think
our patrons will feel good about contributing to the effort.
Freixenet Sparkling Wine is providing the $1,000 travel vouch-
er, which will be drawn at Mulligans in Barre on January 5, 2013.
In addition to the restaurants, sign-ups are available at Beverage
Baron in Barre and M&M Beverage in South Barre.

Your Holiday Party Here!
By Jim Severance
O
ver the next three months at
rinks around Vermont, the battle
will be on as high school boys
and girls teams will be shooting for a
chance to play in March at UVMs
Gutterson Field House for the State
Championships. Recent years have been
good to a number of Central Vermont
schools including the U-32 Raiders.
Last year the U-32 Boys ended a twen-
ty-year drought by capturing the
Division 2 Lake Division Championship.
They will attempt to duplicate what the
U-32 Girls did in 2010 & 2011 by winning back to back champi-
onships.
A new season brings lots of questions as coaches deal with
replacing graduating players, new faces, divisional alignment and
more. Heres a look at how things shape up for the area boys and
girls teams.
Boys Hockey
SPAULDING
Only one player, Shane Hickey, remains from the Crimson Tide
2010 championship team. Hickey returned to Spaulding last year
after a season with the Green Mountain Glades and notched 24
goals as a defenseman. Hell be expected to put up big numbers
again, but will need some help if the Crimson Tide is to compete
with the elite of the Metro Division.
I think this team has a little more depth than last year, Coach
Clay Bell said. I feel good about our defenseman, Shane gets the
most attention, but I think well get some scoring from a number
of defenseman.
Top returning forwards include Mitchell Yacavoni and Justin
Flory. With the graduation of Kevin Avery, the Crimson Tide will
have a new look in net. Junior Ben Ferland is the most experienced
returner. Matt Thompson and freshman Justin Lapearle may also
see action. Three other good sized freshman skaters will join the
team and compete for playing time.
STOWE
The Raiders proved last year they can compete in Division 1 by
posting a 15-5-1 record. They will have tough holes to fill on both
offense and the blue line with the graduation of All State players
Zack Haggerty, Ross Manidigo, Hunter Grosvenor and Eric
Beecy. No other team in Vermont was harder hit by graduation
than Stowe. Only seven players return from last year, with just 14
total players on the roster. It will be an uphill battle going up
against the elite teams of Division 1, and expect the team to take
some lumps this season. Luke OToole and JJ Clark will be
counted on to anchor the defense. With a number of forwards get-
ting their first full season of action, it is not known where the goal
scoring will come from. Wyatt Galfetti returns as the most experi-
enced goalie and should see plenty of shots this season.
U32
Defending a State Championship is a difficult task, but it is one
the U32 Raiders will face this season. They return a number of
standouts including Shane ONeill, Cole Mugford, Cooper Hatch
and Andrew Danyew from a team that didnt have any superstars,
but topped Northfield to win the Lake Division crown. Add to that
mix senior Jordan Jones, a skilled player with prep experience,
who joins the Raiders after skating for Proctor Academy, and U32
should have plenty of firepower.
Weve got eight seniors this year, the most Ive ever had,
coach Dave Pickel said. We should be very balanced again this
year. My biggest challenge is to solidify the goaltending
With the graduation of Michael Bresette, Ty Law and Jordan
Blais will compete for the goaltending job.
NORTHFIELD
The Marauders were a goal scoring machine last year notching
125 goals while posting a 21-3 record. Northfield returns 2 of last
years top 3 scorers with Jackson Tucker (30 goals) and Jackson
Watson (21 goals). With Billy Whaley and Daegan Goodman gone
to graduation, they will need to find offense from some other
sources if they want to compete for another trip to the title game.
Coach Paul Clayton is looking for an all senior line of Gabe
Drown, Kyle Lamorey and Cole Barney to contribute. Four expe-
rienced defenseman, Brandon Pedley, Jordan Lumsden, Matt
Murray and Jeremy Quelch return from last season. Northfield
will be without goalie Ben Tucker to start the season while he
recovers from an injury. Luke Gadbois and Jesse Hunt will handle
the goaltending until Ben is ready to play.
HARWOOD
After competing in Division
1 for a few years, the
Highlanders have moved back
to Division 2. This should
restore their local rivalries with
Northfield and U-32. The
Highlanders graduated a tal-
ented senior class a couple of
years ago and last year strug-
gled with a tough schedule.
Top returning scorers include
Erik Bertalan, Ty Delphia and
Seth Mason. Sam Boylan
anchors the defense. The
Highlanders will have a new
look in net with Willy
McGowan and Elliot Emberley
getting playing time. With the
majority of their players upper-
classmen with the experience
of playing in Division 1, expect
the wins to increase this season
in Waterbury.
PEOPLES
The Wolves posted a 12-8-1
record last year before bowing
out to Northfield in the semifi-
nals. Its looks like a rebuilding
season in Morrisville. Chris
Hinrichs, the best player in the
programs history, has graduat-
ed and his playing with the
Boston Junior Rangers. Also
gone is Sam Loh, along with
six seniors. That leaves a roster
short on experienced talent.
Expect new coach Tom Dean to
go through some growing pains. More than half of his players are
new this season. Hell lean on his five returning seniors to provide
leadership. Adam Badger, Mike Leriche, Jack Thompson and
Elliot Caldwell should add some scoring punch, while Lukas
Caldwell will be busy in goal.
Girls Hockey
SPAULDING
No high school girls hockey program in Vermont has won more
games over the last four winters than Spaulding. However, that
great record has not resulted in a state championship. With a
strong senior class, the Crimson Tide will be shooting for another
visit to UVM in March. 2012 Vermont Player of the Year Hayley
Arnold has graduated and is now skating for Franklin Pierce
University, but seven seniors hope to give Spaulding another shot
at that elusive title. A balanced attack from seniors Ashley Pelkey,
Beth Scott and Emma Ferland, plus sophomore Julia Ormsby, is
what to expect. Ellen Gosselin will anchor the blue line and is a
scoring threat. Key new faces include freshman defenseman
Caitlyn Wilkin. Goalie Morgan Gosselin returns after starting all
games as a freshman, with Karli Chouinard also available. Skating
three solid lines and getting a little more scoring than last year is
what Coach Brad Bessette is shooting for.
U32
The Raider girls went 4-15-2 in last years rebuilding season
after winning two state championships. The program, like some
others in the Lake Division, experienced low numbers and strug-
gled to field two lines and enough defenseman. This year the
numbers are up with an agreement with Montpelier High School,
which ended its varsity program.
The merging of the two programs will give Coach Emilie Clark
more depth. The top returning scorer is defenseman Stacy
Woolaver. Expect Rachel Ebersole, coming over from Montpelier,
to add some offense. A strong freshman class featuring Megan
Ryan, Nell Peterson and Natalie Lavigne will see action immedi-
ately. In goal, Cheyenne Smith was busy last year and proved to
be one of the top goalies in the league.
NORTHFIELD
Coach Chris Amell has reason to be excited this year: the
Marauders return everyone from last years 10-9-3 team.
Sophomore Kristen Dukette set the schools single-season scoring
record last year with 32 goals and 49 points. Senior Erin Easton
moves up to forward this year and should add balance to the scor-
ing. New additions include Logan Lamb who comes over from
Spaulding for her senior season, giving Northfield another weap-
on. The goaltending job will be split between Markie Delude and
Gabbie Willey, another former Spaulding player. Look for
Northfield to be one of the most improved teams in the state.
HARWOOD
The Highlanders went 18-4 last year before bowing out to
Stowe in the semi-finals. Three seniors including defenseman
Emma Cummings have graduated on a team that relied on a stingy
defense and strong goaltending. Expect that formula to work again
this year. Junior Siena Damon has been a starter since her fresh-
man year and is one of the top goalies in the Lake Division. Top
returners include last years leading scorer speedy Carrie Johnson,
linemate Haley Spittle and Katie Martin. Taylor Yandow is the top
returning defenseman. Look for several new faces to get plenty of
ice time including Hayley Martini, Maddie Woodard and Allison
Pierce.
STOWE:
The Raiders posted an 18-4-1 record last year, making it to the
state championship, before bowing out to Burr & Burton. A lot of
scoring is gone with Katie Abrams and sisters Kim and Sam Haab
among the eight seniors gone to graduation. Youll see a lot of new
faces on a small roster for Stowe this year. Standout goaltender
Dani Mayo, one of the best in the league, returns for her junior
season. Other experienced returning players include Katie Stames,
Kelli Grimes and Kathryn Feeney. Freshman Ricki Haab should
be an immediate contributor. The Raiders will also have a strong
Peoples Academy presence with a number of members of the
recent State Championship soccer team skating for the Raiders.
This team will be inexperienced early, but will be looking for
steady improvement throughout the season.

Silver Linings Playbook
HHH1/2
There was a time in America when
Sundays were special.
A time when communities banded to-
gether for a common purpose - a tradi-
tion that united us all.
That time is now. I am talking about NFL football.
We love it. It is what we do on Sundays. It is part of the Ameri-
can way of life.
If it werent for the NFL, Id have a much tougher time relat-
ing to other guys.
When Im at a get-together with a group of people I have
never met before, I feel like I have little in common with the
men I meet.
Normal guys talk about their cars, their home improvement
projects, their careers, and I am not interested in any of that stuff.
I want to talk about Project Runway, my new vacuum cleaner,
and that catchy Owl City/Carly Rae Jepsen song. But Im aware
that it would be very weird for me to bring up those topics.
We all like football, however. Thanks to the NFL, I always
have something to talk about with other guys.
The most amazing thing about the NFL, though, is how it
brings fathers and sons together.
Fathers and sons who dont have much in common can always
talk about football. Fathers and sons who dont feel comfortable
sharing their feelings with each other can always watch a game
together.
Thats what this movie is about. Sil-
ver Linings Playbook is a mediocre
love story. But its a witty, insightful
football story.
Pat Solitano (Robert DeNiro) is a blue
collar Philly guy who isnt good with
words or emotions. He doesnt have
anything in common with his violent,
bi-polar son Pat Jr (Bradley Cooper). Truth be told, he doesnt
really even like his son.
But Pat does love his son. And he loves the Philadelphia Ea-
gles. Throughout the movie, Pat scrambles to come up with ways
to bond with Pat Jr over the Eagles so that he has something to
share with his boy.
Finally, he comes up with the brilliant and crazy notion of bet-
ting his life savings that the Eagles beat the Cowboys on the last
day of the regular season. AND, as a parlay, Pat Jr has to earn a
good score at the dance competition he is participating in with
his new girlfriend (Jennifer Lawrence).
For the frst time in their lives, Pat and Pat Jr are on the same
side and sharing something meaningful.
The fnale isnt all that realistic. If fans really made a habit of
wagering their life savings on the Eagles, the greater Philadel-
phia area would be an impoverished Third World wasteland at
this point.
What it lacks in believability, however, it more than makes
up for in humor, suspense, and heart. If you are into romance,
happy endings, and the NFL, Silver Linings Playbook is the
movie for you.
Hookers Furniture Collecting Toys,
Holding Fundraiser for Toys for Tots
Between now and the 22nd of December, Hookers Furniture is
aiming to support the local Toys for Tots program. Anyone who
brings in a new and unwrapped toy for Toys for Tots to either of
their two locations (Barre & Waterbury Center) will get $50 off
their purchase. Of course, toy donations are welcome even without
a purchase. In addition, they will be holding a wine tasting at the
Barre store (in front of Price Chopper) to benefit the cause on
Saturday, December 22nd from noon until 4:30pm. A $10 dona-
tion per person will buy a tasting of six great value wines. The
wines will also be available for sale at reduced prices.
I have two young boys and there is nothing like the excitement
on their faces when they open a toy on Christmas, says Bart
Newhouse, general manager of Hookers Furniture. We hope we
can do our part so lots of other kids to feel that excitement as
well. He adds, All donations for the wine tasting and any dollar
amount above our cost for any wine purchased that afternoon will
go to Toys for Tots. So even if you dont need any furniture, come
in to taste some great wines and help support a great cause.

Zonophone Discs
Q: My great-granddad was
from Italy and a great opera
lover. When he immigrated to
the United States, he brought
along about three dozen
recordings, including two
Zonophone discs by Enrico
Caruso. I read in one of your
recent columns that Carusos
American Victor Real Seal
recordings are fairly common
and not worth that much.
What about the Zonophones?
-- A Reader in Kissimmee,
Fla.
A: You are correct about the
Caruso Red Seals. Most sell in
the $5 to $25 range, pending
on rarity and condition.
Caruso, probably the most
legendary classical tenor who
ever lived, was born in Naples
in 1873. He made his operatic
debut in 1894 and after estab-
lishing his singing chops in
Europe, arrived in the United
States in 1902 where he began
a long association with the
New York Metropolitan
Opera. His first major record-
ing in the U.S. was Vesti La
Glubba from I Pagliacci,
cut in 1904 at the Victor stu-
dios. It charted as the best-
selling recording in the coun-
try that May.
Caruso made only a few
Zonophone recordings. Since
they are scarce, they also are
expensive. Several have sold
in the $5,000 to $10,000
range. Someone who might be
able to advise you is Richard
Gesner, owner of The Music
Connection, one of the pre-
mier record shops in New
England. You can contact him
at 1711 South Willow St.,
Manchester, NH 03103.
***
Q: We purchased an Atari
Super Pong system when it
was introduced a number of
years ago. It is still in its
original box and has four
games, instructions and an AC
adapter. The model is NO-C-
140. How much do you think
it is worth? -- Shirley, Sun
City West, Ariz.
A: I checked several used
electronic shops and moni-
tored the action on eBay, and
think your Atari setup would
sell in the $50 to $75 range.
***
Q: I have a bobbing head
doll that I would like to know
more about. It was made by
Kanmar in Japan and is of a
black boy attached to an
orange, which is a bank. --
Marilyn, Stigler, Okla.
A: I could not find your doll
referenced in Bobbing Head
Dolls 1960-2000 by Tim
Hunterm which spotlights
more than 700 dolls with pric-
es.

Find the Right Gifts for Dogs or Cats
DEAR PAWS CORNER: My
daughter and her family have
two big dogs and a cat. I like
giving gifts to the pets as well
as my grandkids. Do you have
any suggestions?
-- Tammy, via email
DEAR TAMMY: Anything
that looks cozy, fun and safe
for pets is a good bet. Ive
always appreciated even small gifts like a cute bandanna for
my dog or small catnip toys for my cat. If youre looking for
gifts beyond stocking stuffers, here are some that most pet
owners will appreciate:
--Dog and cat beds: These range in price from about $15 on
up to a few hundred dollars. Look for a sturdy fabric covering
that is easy to brush fur from, and stuffing that cant be easily
pulled out and chewed on.
--Cat furniture: From a simple padded windowsill seat to
kitty condo play complexes that cats can wander through, cat
owners appreciate these combination scratching posts and rest
areas.
--Travel safety: A number of products have come on the
market to keep dogs and cats safe in the car, from traditional
travel crates to adapted seat belts that keep Fido securely in his
seat.
--Toys: For your daughters big dogs, sturdy chew toys are
probably welcome. I still really like Kong chew toys, which are
nearly impossible to damage and can be filled with peanut but-
ter or another treat. For cats, something beyond the catnip
mouse could include one of Bergans Turbo Tracks, in which
a ball inset in a round or figure-eight track scoots around with
every swipe of the paw.
No matter which gift you choose, or if you decide to just
give small, inexpensive gifts to your daughters pets, Im sure
theyll be appreciated.

While thinking back on news and events from
this past year, recall some of our top gardening
tips and ideas towards making your fruit or veg-
etable garden more bountiful and landscape
more beautiful this coming year. Some of these
topics from our 60 Green Mountain Gardener
articles during 2012 included ones on fruits,
vegetables, native plants, and new plants
flowers, shrubs and trees.
New annual flowers featured were recent win-
ners in the All-America selections program
ones you may want to try this coming year.
Black Olive is an ornamental pepper with shiny
black fruit, both ornamental and hot when eaten.
Summer Jewel Pink is a scarlet-sage type of
salvia, with long stalks to 18-inches high of pink
flowers.
New vegetables included two new All-America
Selections winners. Cayennetta is a mildly-
spicy chili pepper, with elongated red fruits
about 3-inches long when mature. Faerie is a
watermelon with small fruits, only about 8-inch-
es long and 4 to 6 pounds when mature. More
winners can be found on the All-America
Selections website (www.all-americaselections.
org), and performance of these and many other
new flowers in our Burlington, Vermont display
garden on my website (perrysperennials.info/
aaswp.html).
Among the new trees and shrubs are the Cary
award winnersthose voted by a team of profes-
sionals as tops for New England. This past years
two winners were Adams needle or yucca, and
the popular series of Knock Out roses. The for-
mer is a mound of long, sword-shaped leaves
with sharp tips. There are several selections,
often with gold striping, good for Spanish-style
gardens. The roses are relatively hardy, disease
resistant, and long blooming. Knock Out is actu-
ally a group of 7 different named selections with
flower variations of pink or yellow.
New perennials voted as choice among many
professional nationwide are all hardy to at least
USDA zone 4. The upright Northwind switch-
grass, to 4 feet tall, with bluish-green leaves is
attractive summer into much of winter. Hot
Lips is a great name for this choice turtlehead,
with pink flowers in late summer resembling
turtle heads (with mouth open). For spring
bloom in part shade (sun is fine in the north if in
a moist soil), with white bell-shaped flowers
hanging from arching stems, is the Variegated
Solomons Seal. It is even hardier (USDA zone
3), as is the Angelina sedum. The needle-like
leaves of this low sedum groundcover start out a
pretty chartreuse in spring, then turn golden yel-
low in the full sun it really needs.
A series of articles this past year covered
native plants for wildlife, shrubs, perennials, and
trees. An example of some good native ever-
green trees are the white pine, white spruce,
balsam fir, hemlock, and white cedar. For large,
deciduous (losing their leaves in winter) trees
consider maples and the red oak. Smaller, decid-
uous native trees include the paper birch, striped
maple, musclewood, pagoda dogwood, and
American mountainash.
Other plant-based articles included ones on
coralbells, garden phlox, bugloss, and bearded
iris for perennials. Winterberries, serviceberries,
and crabapples were articles on good, multi-
functional small trees for landscapes. Vines,
while of great landscape value, often have been
ignored in landscape plans because many gar-
deners fail to realize their potential. Examples
include the Dutchmans Pipe for screening, the
native trumpet honeysuckle as a shade ground-
cover, or the clematis for its showy flowers.
Articles in 2012 on vegetables included horse-
radish, potatoes, and culinary herbs. Horseradish
is an easy root crop that pretty much grows by
itself, but needs its own space as it can spread
aggressively. Potatoes are another root crop that
is easy to grow at home, either in the ground or
grow bags if space is limited. Growing your
own you can know theyre free of chemicals, and
you can get varieties not available in stores and
markets.
Favorite culinary herbs you might consider
growing at home as annuals next summer include
basil, parsley, and dill. Perennial herbs include
mints (site carefully or grow in pots, as they can
spread), chives, thyme, and rosemary.
Several articles from 2012 covered specifics of
home fruit growing, including a review of my
book released early this past year. The Fruit
Gardeners Bible was a total revision of Lewis
Hills former Fruits and Berries for the Home
Garden from 1992. In it I cover major small
fruits, tree fruits, less common fruits, and all
aspects of culture from siting to soils to storage
of the harvest. You can learn more on this, addi-
tional information, and ordering details from my
website (homefruitgrowing.info). Other fruit
articles included those on choosing brambles,
pruning berry bushes, apple pests and diseases,
fruit terms, and harvesting and storing fall
fruits.
Then there were articles on a range of other
topics, including gardening for cats, scents in the
garden, allergies, garden railways, gardening in a
drought, reclaiming a flooded yard or garden,
wood chips as mulch, beneficial nematodes, and
fall care of summer bulbs. More on these and
other topics can be found online, and searched by
season or by topic (perennialsperennials.info/
articleS.htm).

Last Weeks Weather
A series of very weak frontal boundaries
moved through keeping generally unsettled
weather going. Last week had both warm and
cold weather with lots of wild swings in tempera-
tures. As low pressure systems through Ontario
and Quebec, the Northeast, experienced being in
the more changeable warm sector.
Skiers and those loving snow hate the warm
sector of storms. Warm sectors are in the south-
east quad of the pie. They bring mixed precipita-
tion or ice followed by mostly rain, followed by
a little snow. Of note, only 3 inches were atop
Mount Mansfield as of Monday prior to some
snow moving in Monday night. The U.S. as a

Chemistry Continues
To Change
Early December CO2
levels at the Mauna Loa
Observatory were 393.50
and going up. This was
compared to 390.94 last year 2011. Thats up 2.56 in just one
year good lord!.
And It Gets Worse
The amount of the greenhouse gas carbon dioxide spewed
annually into the atmosphere by human activities is expected
to reach a record high by the end of this year, according to new
figures released by the Global Carbon Project.
Researchers there, including scientists at Britains Tyndall
Center for Climate Change Research, project a 2.6 percent rise
in mean global emissions from burning fossil fuels during
2012.
Writing in the journal Nature Climate Change, researchers
say significant emission cuts are needed by 2020 to keep
warming below 2 degrees Celsius as a feasible goal. But many
others have said that it is already too late to prevent exceeding
that goal, no matter what is done with emissions.
World delegates in the second week of the U.N. climate
conference in Doha, Qatar, appear to be failing to reach any
significant consensus on reducing greenhouse gas emissions.
If we dont completely rethink and radically accelerate the
plans to reverse global warming, we will, in all likelihood,
create catastrophic climate change in our lifetime, warned
Global Carbon Project head Josep Canadell.
Note* We are on track for 3 to 4 degree Celsius change by
2050 which alone would end winter as we know it in Vermont,
about 6 degrees C for 2100 which would be catastrophic and
life threatening to all inhabitance.
Hemispheric Snow Cover Dips to Lowest on Record
Snow cover across the Northern Hemisphere melted last
summer to the lowest level ever observed since satellite
monitoring began 45 years ago.
Data from various environment agencies also show that
record lows of snow cover have been observed in North
America during three of the past five years. The maximum
extent of winter snow has also been falling, while spring snow,
especially at higher latitudes, is observed melting
far earlier.
Scientists say the retreat of the snow coverage
is occurring muct faster than predicted by climate
models.
The European Space Agencys GlobSnow
project has produced the first long-term analysis
of snow mass from 2012. Project heads say find-
ings from the study will be used to help world
leaders to develop ways to adapt to climate
change. The results of the studies have been pub-
lished in the journal Geophysical Research
Letters.
Weather Trends Ahead
Other than a very stray flurry at that, well see
our local ski resorts at least be able to make snow over the
next few days thanks to an area of high pressure in control
with a nice quiet dry stretch of weather. Temperature will top
out Wednesday in the low 30s, mid 30s Thursday, upper 30s
Friday and mid to upper 30s Saturday. Normal highs this time
of year in the upper 20s to near 30. Normal lows in the low
teens.
Next Significant Weather Maker
As much of the rest of the lower 48 United States chills
down considerably, we in the Northeast U.S. and Southeast
Canada region will only be close seasonal normals if not
above normal. One significant moisture push will arrive late
next weekend. Unfortunately it was looking another dud. A
warm sector rainier which anytime you have that this time of
year means poor driving conditions in ice. If this storms were
to track further south, we would see our first major snowfall.
The timing would be around next Sunday and we are well
overdue.
