Local women knit helmet liners for Vermont soldiers Judy Boss of the Castleton Community Senior Centers’ Knitters’ Network, of Castleton, Vermont and Mary Lee Harris, the owner of Stitchy Women, a yarn shop located at 144 Main St. in Poultney are working together to educate, promote and solicit contributions to the Helmet Liner Project for our American troops that were deployed to Iraq and will soon be deployed to Afghanistan. Mary Lee has continuously provided discounted yarn and knitting needles as well as paying the shipping and handling costs from the supplier. The helmet liners must be made with specific, washable, dryable wool which is costly. These helmet liners are a necessity in keeping our brave and courageous soldiers warm in arctic conditions that must be endured on a daily basis. There are no motels or heated cabins to provide warmth for Vermont troops, but a helmet liner—which can be worn with or without the helmet— goes a long way in providing

comfort to our men and women in combat who put their lives on the line every day to protect all our American citizens. Mary Lee from Stitchy Women and Judy Boss from the Knitters Network were instrumental in setting up an exhibit in front of Stitchy Women on
Working for the Nature Conservancy of Rutland County, located in the old West Haven Schoolhouse in West Haven Vt., has allowed a team of AmeriCorps National Civilian Community Corps (NCCC) members a chance to serve the environment and enjoy the Green Mountain State. AmeriCorps NCCC (National Civilian Community Corps) is a full-time, team-based residential program for men and women, ages 18–24. Members are not considered volunteers since they receive stipends. The NCCC workers, doing tree planting in Rutland County this month, come from across the country; they are based at Perry Point, Md., and aiding in the upkeep of the natural uniqueness of the area. According to team media coordinator Jordan Lundberg, “The Nature Conservancy of Western Vermont aims at

Handbell concert at UMC in Rutland PROSIT!—Two Austrianborn gentlemen found themselves celebrating a 70-yearlong friendship at Noel’s Restaurant in Mendon recently. The buddies toasted each other’s good fortunes with glasses of Stiegl, an Austrian-made beer. Stiegl began making beer in 1492—the year Columbus sailed to the Americas. Stiegl brews helles (a light lager) and weissbier (Hefeweizen) beers, as well as other specialty beers. Photo by Shawn Pemrick Photography

June is Adopt-A-Shelter-Cat Month The Rutland County Humane Society (RCHS) would like to remind you that June is Adopt-A-Shelter-Cat Month. Every year at RCHS we care for more than 900 cats and kittens and they are all looking for loving homes. There are many benefits to adopting a cat and before you know it they've become members of your family. Cats are entertaining and will keep you laughing with their playful antics. They also love to cuddle and get lots of well deserved attention. Having a cat around can lower your blood pressure and provide companionship for many years. They can also be independent and will do well left alone while you're at work. With so many benefits we hope you will adopt at least one. Please stop by the shelter and fall in love with a cat this month. Call the shelter at 483-6700 or visit our website at www.rchsvt.org for more information.
Maddie 1.5 year old. Spayed Female. Bluetick Coonhound. Who can resist a face like mine? I am a very sweet hound who is looking for a quiet home where I can curl up on the couch with my favorite family. I enjoy going for walks and I love to play with the other dogs here at the shelter. Do you have a dog at home that is looking for a new friend?
Puppies 10 week old. Females. Chow Chow/Labrador Retriever mix. We are sweet and fun and we have lots of energy. We’ll need lots of exercise and play time. And, of course, we aren’t housetrained yet. We love to run and play and dig holes and do those fun puppy things.
Buddy 15 year old. Neutered Male. Siamese Ragdoll mix. I’m a super sweet declawed fella who loves being with people. I’ve got lots of extra toes which make me extra cute. I love finding a sunny spot to curl up and take a well deserved snooze.
Fraggle 1.5 year old. Neutered Male. Domestic Short Hair Black & Gray Tiger. I was used to surviving on the streets and life as a stray makes a cat grow up quickly. Now I’m looking for a chance to experience the kittenhood I never had so if you’re into kitty toys and string, stop by.

Since June is Dairy Month in Vermont, why not consider taking the family on a tour of one of Vermont’s most successful dairy farms? Check out Sugarbush Farms in Woodstock which caters to local and out-of-state visitors. Jack and Marion Ayres bought the farm in 1945 with a dream to make a go of country living. They were the first folks in Vermont to start packaging cheese in waxed bars so they would travel well without refrigeration. The Luce family now operates the farm. Visit the farm’s dairy operation and sugarhouse and learn how maple trees are tapped in the spring and how maple syrup is made. A display is open year round, although the actual maple syrup making season is in March and April.
Maple syrup Sample four grades of the Luce’s Pure Vermont maple syrup at the farm and let our family explain the process of making syrup and the differences in the grades.
Cheese workroom In Vermont, cheese is made the traditional way which provides the best flavor
and old fashioned quality. Sugarbush cheeses are hand cut and hand wrapped. The cheese is hand dipped in three coats of special cheese coating wax to lock in the peak flavor and allows for safe shipping and long keeping. See a workroom where dairy workers hand wrap and hand wax the cheese, making the cheese suitable to carry or ship home.
Customer samplings Enjoy personal service while sampling 14 cheeses including Sharp Cheddar Cheese aged over three years and Hickory and Maple Naturally Smoked Cheese.
Farm Store Shop in Sugarbush’s three-room farmhouse gift shop. Enjoy samples of some of Vermont's best jams, mustards and maple spreads. Shipping available.
Draft horses Walk on Sugarbush’s nature trail to the maple woods. Follow the path the draft horses use in the spring to collect the sap. Learn how maple trees are tapped both with buckets and plastic tubing which saves our family sap collection time.
Farm animals
41001
In warmer months make friends with our farm animals which usually include a baby calf, Belgian draft horses, chickens, rabbits, sheep and goats.

Sugarbush Farm Chapel Spend some reflective time in a farm chapel built by farm owner Jeff Luce and used both for weddings and personal quiet time. Directions: Farm is located in central Vermont close to both I-89 and I -91. Exit 1 on I- 89 will bring you to U.S. Route 4. Go West on Route 4 seven miles (passing over Quechee Gorge), until you come to the village of Taftsville, a tiny hamlet with a historic red covered bridge spanning the Ottaquechee River.Start watching for the covered bridge a quarter mile after you pass the intersection of Route 4 and Route 12. Turn right off Route 4 and Cross the Covered Bridge, go to the top of the hill, turn left on to Hillside Road, and follow the yellow directional signs to Sugarbush Farm Road. It is three miles from the bridge to Sugarbush Farm. Special thanks to Sugrabush Farm for this content.

Pursuing Veronica, part 4
S
he had only a couple scenes in the play, yet she’d show up at the start and watch the entire rehearsal. I knew she wasn’t a theatre major, so I had to guess she was hanging around extra to check out a dude, and I figured that dude might be me since there was only one other single dude in the play, and he was Fay. A blind man could see that when she chatted with him it seemed more like girlfriends gossiping than heteros flirting. When Veronica and I chatted, which was not often because I was involved in most every scene, we said very little, which led me to think, or believe, or more to the point hope like a bastard, that we were treading lightly around emotions we wished could erupt into a one way trip to love. (Please feel free to use the final seventeen words of that paragraph in a song – but understand, the song will probably suck if you do). Robert, our great director, decided would be best for Veronica and I to work on the sensitive scene we shared at the end of each night’s rehearsal. “The set will be closed,” he announced to the cast, which meant no one else would be allowed to watch. I felt like kissing Robert right then and there because ending rehearsals (we rehearsed on the top floor of a working dairy barn), with only Robert around to compete for Veronica’s attention, would allow me fantastic opportunities to utilize my highly evolved ability to woo … which of course I did not and still do not have. But being the politest, sweetest, most humble and content young man to bid Veronica “Night,” under a dozen or so of the absolute most perfectly clear star filled summer Vermont evenings, couldn’t hurt my chances. The closed rehearsals were working very well. Not having our acting peers peer at us while we worked allowed for maximum concentration on a scene that included a good deal of physical action. Veronica and I felt a heightened sense of solitude that helped us feel free to tangle about, emotionally and physically. I remember during an intense pass through a part of the scene were Veronica struggles to free herself from my character’s grip, my right hand accidentally, not just brushed by, but actually formed a full landing on, for a good fully seems like fully five seconds, her breast. I was freaked, and after Robert stopped us I politely apologized to Veronica. She half smiled, using her hand to shoo away my apology, the way Oprah might shoo away one’s offer to pay for lunch. “Oh, that’s, that’s fine,” she said quietly. I could tell at the very least Veronica understood that I was a sincere and nice guy, which is all a man should and can ever want a woman to understand. At that point my summer was made. Anything that might build between us beyond her understanding of my sincere feelings would be cream on the peach. Cream takes time to whip. The play was about to open. Summer was fading. I kind of wanted me some cream. To be continued. Rusty DeWees tours Vermont and Northern New York with his act “The Logger.” His column appears weekly. He can be reached at rustyd@pshift.com.

What’s an artium baccalaureus worth?
N
ews that Middlebury College’s annual per-pupil cost will soon rise past the $50,000 mark isn’t an unexpected shocker—after all, it was within easy striking distance last year at $49,210, so getting to $50,780 is merely a walking-around-money increase. But a nice round number like $50K is a benchmark of sorts, and raises once again all the time-honored questions about the purpose, value, and cost of a college education. Typically, it’s called an “investment” with further elaboration directed at either the (supposed) resulting broadening of knowledge, outlook, and understanding, or the first step toward professional skill, recognition, and reward in some vocational endeavor. Frequently the two are rhetorically mixed together, presumably so the listener won’t know whether there’s supposed to be a return on the investment and what form that return should take. Maybe that’s because there used to be a measurable social distance between those who entered the halls of ivy to take their rightful places as gentlemen even more fully conversant with the five-foot shelf of Western Civilization, and those of us who were, unforgiveably, mixing some professional-vocation (dare I say trade-school) education in with our purely liberal arts exposures to historical verities. I’m told there still is, which perhaps explains why the public-relations experts in higher education describe their course offerings with oblique phrases like enabling students to “enhance their professional potential” or the slightly more direct “prepare for government…or privatesector careers”. In today’s halls of ivy, Western Civ doesn’t have the cachet it once had. Now-retired-from-Wellesley Classics educator Mary Lefkowitz was prominently ostracized and even sued for daring to object to the politically correct Afro-centric notion that everything the ancient Greeks supposedly invented or wrote or designed had been stolen from advanced sub-Saharan civilizations. Thus, fifth-century B.C. (we happily shun the P.C. use of BCE) Greeks presumably sneaked peeks inside the fourth-century B.C. Library at Alexandria which, unfortunately for the Afrocentrists’ comprehension of chronology, hadn’t even been built when Socrates supposedly removed archival documents, Sandy-Berger-style, from it. Instead, today’s institutes of higher learning prefer to convey such notions as “counter-hegemony”, “imperialistic legacy”, and of course “the dialogic process of being human”. The quotes come from the American Educational Research Association, a professorial group in which unrepentant past bomb-tosser/ present education-prof William Ayers is an honored member. As an equally unrepentant Lefkowitz supporter and Western Civ enthusiast, I choose to let that matter be and focus instead on the crassly fiscal
side of the higher-ed costbenefit equation. How does paying Middlebury $50K for four years, a total of $200K, work out in terms of career profitability and future retirement security, compared with putting the same amount into market investments and watching them grow, under the magic of compound interest, for the 44 years between graduation age 21 and retirement age 65? The answer can be found on the Web (www.ameriprise.com) in the form of a savings calculator. If you plug the cost of an A.B., $200,000 (four years of tuition at full sticker price) into the formula, and instead invest and grow it at 6% for 44 years, it shows that the now-65-year-old retiree has a nest-egg of $2.8 million. Actually, 6% growth is a bit conservative, because the long-term investment history of the equities markets has been just over 8%. Let’s equally conservatively have the retiree live off his earnings at 5%: that would be an annual stipend of $140,000 without even touching the principal. If the would-be-student had been planning on paying half the sticker price, and then chose not to, the formula would start with $100,000 not spent for tuition and end up with a nest-egg of $1.4 million, The annual retiree stipend would be $70,000. And if the would-be-student had avoided four years of a $12,500 tuition cost, his nest-egg would start with $50,000, grow to $700,000 by retirement, and throw off $35,000 in annual passive income. By way of comparison, median personal income in Vermont was $37,000 in 2007, mostly actively earned, not passively received. Actually, the numbers don’t fully answer the question. A student who has to borrow and re-pay his tuition costs will end up worse off, financially, than the above examples show; and one sufficiently skillful networking-wise to parlay even full-sticker-price tuition into an upper-floor corner-with-views corporate office will end up much better off. A student majoring in Medieval Lit will face a lower career-long wage-scale than one selecting a more vocational endeavor: engineering, physics, geology. But then, money isn’t everything—for those of a scholarly bent, there may be more personal satisfaction in Chaucer, de Troyes, and Malory than in bridges, reactors, or drill-cores.

The Sun’s nearest neighbor E
arth’s nearest star is, of course, our Sun located 93 million miles away. But common references to Earth’s “nearest star” usually refer to Alpha Centauri A, a star in a nearby stellar system consisting of three suns. The Alpha Centauri system is located in the constellation Centaurus. While Alpha Centauri A is considered the nearest star to Earth—at just over four light years distant—its smaller companion, the red dwarf star Alpha Centauri C or Proxima Centauri, can be a tad closer due to the long, slow dance of orbital mechanics. Overall, the Alpha Centauri system is approximately 4.2 light years from us (a lightyear is the distance a beam of light travels in 365 days— 9,460 billion kilometers or 5,880 billion miles). Alpha Centauri A is the third brightest star in our night sky although to see it you must travel to either southern Florida or Texas. The star is best seen during the month of May when it is highest in the southern sky. In recent decades, some astronomers have begun referring to Alpha Centauri A as “Rigil Kentaurus”, which literally means “foot of the centaur” in Greek. However, both names, Alpha or Rigil, are still correct to use for this Sunlike star. Alpha Centauri A is nearly a twin of our Sun although it is slightly larger and brighter (spectral type G2 with an apparent magnitude of +0.01). Alpha Centauri B is a yelloworange star, slightly smaller and cooler than our Sun. Because Alpha Centauri A is so Sunlike, some astronomers have speculated that there might be Earth-like planets orbiting it although none have been detected so far. And because it is so similar to our Sun, Alpha Centauri has been a popular destination in space-age mythology— from author A.E. Van Vogt’s classic 1944 science-fiction tale of suspended-animation star trekking, titled “Far Centaurus”, to television’s long wandering “Lost in Space” Robinson family. Let’s put some things into stark perspective: Using current chemical rocket technology, a crewed voyage to Alpha Centauri B would take 32,000 years! Such an impossibly long trek would require a multi-generation starship and vast amounts of fuel; in effect, such a starship would be a miniplanet in its own right with vast living areas, hydroponic gardens and livestock to nurture and sustain many generations of people in flight. In 1987, NASA and the U.S. Naval Academy proposed Project Longshot, an ultra-fast robot probe intended to fly to Alpha Centauri powered by nuclear-pulse propulsion. As proposed, Longshot could reach the Alpha Centauri system within a century. This advanced rocket technology could be scaled up to power an ultra-fast manned mis-
sion—but then who would finance such a bold voyage? Because Alpha Centauri A is a member of a triple star system, it appears as a single point of light from Earth. Both Alpha Centauri A and B are too close together to distinguish them as individual stars. Alpha Centauri C is simply too dim to be seen with the naked eye from Earth. Alpha Centauri A and B orbit a shared center of gravity once every 80 years. Approximately 3.6 billion kilometers (2.2 billion miles) separate the two stars—about the distance between our Sun and the planet Uranus. Trio member Alpha Centauri C orbits A and B at 1,500 billion kilometers (930 billion miles) taking several million years to circle its distant stellar companions. Because C is so distant from its larger companions, an inhabitant living on a planet orbiting stars A or B, would have no idea that Proxima was even part of their stellar system. NASA computer models suggest that Earth-like planets could form close to either Alpha Centauri A and B. Thus, the Alpha Centauri system may hold the best chance for finding extraterrestrial life beyond our solar system. What’s in the Sky: On the early morning of Friday, June 5, you can see a “triple play” of planets in the eastern sky—look for Mercury, Venus and Mars hovering just above the horizon (see accompanying sky map).

Trees From page 1 preserving the environmental assets of the area.” Lundberg said NCCC members—under the guidance of Elaine Blodgett of the Nature Conservancy in West Haven—are planting native trees at several locations. NCCC members work at the conservancy’s Lower Poultney River Preserve and Champlain Valley Native Plant Restoration Nursery. The preserve and nursery are located at the end of Ward Road in Whitehall, N.Y. Beyond the nursery, set up in a former dairy barn, are 800 acres of conservancy land encompassing Buttonbush Swamp, woodlands, remote ridgelines, and land bordering Lake Champlain’s South Bay. Trees grown from harvested wild seeds and nuts are gathered within a 50mile radius of the nursery and include oaks, maples, elm, dogwood, elderberry, ash and white pine. Lundberg said that during tree planting, members work alongside high school students from around the county and beyond who come to offer assis-
tance. As an example, the NCCC team and local students planted a section of the West Haven Clay Plain located along Route 22A near Devil’s Bowl Speedway. The planting includes seedlings inside wildlife-protective cultivation tubes. Similar NCCC efforts can be seen at several Rutland County locales. “Among other things, the conservancy is also using its partnership with the AmeriCorps members in battling an invasive species in Vermont called garlic mustard,” Lundberg said. This is the fifteenth anniversary for AmeriCorps NCCC, a leadership program for young people ages 18 to 24. In exchange for completing 1,700 hours of service during a 10-month term, these young people receive a taxpayer funded education award of nearly $5,000, plus a living stipend, housing and more. AmeriCorps programs are administered by the Corporation for National and Community Service, a federal agency. NCCC member Beth Sewart of Maryland, said she and her teammates will work together for 10 months although they may be moved around to different
Knits From page 1 Memorial Day which included knitters making helmet liners and Mary Lee’s ten year-old granddaughter, Emily Fleming, who was knitting pocket dolls. Visit Stitchy Women or contact Judy Boss at 468-3403 to find out what a pocket doll is and see how you can help the women reach the goal of 1,600 helmet liners needed for men and women being deployed from Rutland County at the end of this year. One quarter of the liners will be given specifically to the 86th Green Mountain Infantry Brigade, who will be serving in the coldest parts of the areas to which they will be deployed. Anyone willing to knit will be provided the yarn, needles and instructions to complete the helmet liner. The only cost to you is your time and generosity. If you cannot knit, monetary donations for yarn, needles or shipping and handling costs when the helmet liners are sent to our troops will go a long way to help this project and keep
our fathers, mothers, sons, daughters and every soldier warm this coming winter. Poultney Chamber of Commerce donated $100 as well as other chamber members adding to the donation jar on the counter of Stitchy Women. The fundraising event on May 25 netted an additional $150. Help fill the jar and others being placed in area businesses or at events around our area over the next several months. Stitchy Women is open from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Wednesday and Fridays, 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. on Thursdays and 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Saturdays. Thursday evening, beginning at 6 p.m. anyone is welcome to join the friends of Stitchy Women and knit, share stories or have a cup of coffee. The Castleton Community Senior Center ’s knitters meet the second and forth Monday of each month from 10 a.m. to noon. If you are not comfortable in knitting these helmet liners but can knit and purl, perhaps you could knit the 6 inches of ribbing and someone else will finish the helmet liner.

regions that might include Mississippi and West Virginia. “I wanted to travel. Doing this kind of work was very appealing,” Stewart said. She found AmeriCorps to be a perfect match for her youthful goals. Other teammates expressed similar reasons for enrolling in AmeriCorps NCCC. According to government literature available to the public, the mission of AmeriCorps NCCC is “to strengthen communities and develop leaders through direct, team-based national and community service. In partnership with nonprofit organizations, state and local agencies, and faith-based and other community organizations, members complete service projects throughout the region they are assigned.” AmeriCorps NCCC is inspired by the the Civilian Conservation Corps of the 1930s and the U.S. military; it is built on the belief that civic responsibility is a duty of all citizens and that national service programs work best with local communities to address “pressing needs”. Interested applicants and project sponsors are encouraged to learn more by visiting www.americorps.gov/nccc or calling 1-800-942-2677.

Win the Grocery Store Price Cycle Game
H
ave you ever gone to the grocery store and wondered why prices on the same items change so much each week? A box of pasta may cost 79 cents one week and $2.39 the next. A bottle of juice that costs $2 today may cost $4.29 just a few days from now. Most people accept these price fluctuations as normal. Many don’t even notice them at all. Why do prices at the grocery store change so much in a short period of time? Grocery stores sales run in 12-week cycles. Most everything in the store is at its lowest price point just once every 12 weeks. Throughout the rest of the cycle the price may fluctuate a bit, but it won’t go to its rock-bottom low again until the 12-week cycle is complete. You might be thinking what I thought when I initially learned this valuable piece of information: “What if I had just bought more pasta last week when it was 79 cents?” Better yet: “What would have happened if I bought enough boxes of pasta to last my household 12 weeks?” I’d save $1.60 on each box. If we ate pasta once a week for the next 12 weeks, I would save $19.20 by buying all 12 boxes in one trip when the price was low. Granted, this approach goes against everything we typically do as shoppers. When it’s time to go to the store, most of us look around the house, see what we’re out of, and then go to the store to buy it. But the problem with this is that it’s impossible for every item on our list to be at its lowest price point, since different categories of grocery items operate on different pricing cycles. That’s part of the grocery store’s marketing plan. Stores know that if shoppers come in for a sale item, it’s likely they will buy many other full-priced items. As shoppers, changing the way we shop is the key to saving money. Obviously, it’s not easy to stock up on perishable produce and dairy items. But many other products are easy to store for long periods. If you start saving money on slow-to-outdate items – cereal, canned and frozen foods and personal-care items like toothpaste and shampoo – your entire grocery bill will start to
come down. Here’s the challenge: We are just not in the habit of buying 12 boxes of pasta at a time. But why not? Pasta has a long shelf life. It doesn’t spoil. It’s By Jill Cataldo easy to store. Yet, when we see it on sale we usually don’t think, “That’s a great price. I’m going to buy a dozen.” When I became a Super-Couponer, I started seeing shopping in a new light. I started buying larger quantities of my household staples when they were at their lowest prices. Die-hard couponers refer to buying in quantity as “stockpiling.” When you buy more than you need because the price is low you can “shop from home” the next time you need that item, because you have stockpiled it in your kitchen cupboard. And you’ve avoided paying the higher price for the identical item in the grocery store this week because you purchased enough to last your household almost three months when the price was lowest. And we haven’t even discussed coupons yet! Imagine that during the pasta sale, I had coupons for 75 cents off each box of pasta. I would now be buying my pasta for just four cents a box. We’ll discuss how to use coupons in conjunction with the 12week sales cycle next week. © CTW Features
