Middlebury couple takes environmentally friendly living to a whole new level By  ALEX  MUNTEANU MIDDLEBURY  â&#x20AC;&#x201D;  Alice  Eckles  and  Ross  Conrad  were  living  in  a  traditional  apartment  in  Weybridge  when  they  bought  25  acres  in  Mid-­ dlebury  with  a  plan  of  building  a  cordwood  home.  Soon  after  purchas-­ ing  the  land,  the  massive  oil  spill  in  the  Gulf  of  Mexico  took  place  and  the  couple  talked  about  how  they  could  step  away  from  being  part  of  the  fossil-­fuel-­guzzling  world  while  their  permanent  home  is  being  built.

Eckles  convinced  her  husband  that  living  in  a  yurt,  a  circular  tent  tradi-­ tionally  used  by  nomads,  would  be  the  best  way  to  get  away  from  fur-­ ther  polluting  the  earth.  Now  they  are  in  their  fourth  year  residing  in  a  yurt,  and  they  have  been  doing  it  without  electricity.  ³,W ZDV DQ DGYHQWXUH DW ¿UVW DQG ZH KDG WR ¿JXUH WKLQJV RXW ´ VDLG Eckles.  612: )$//6 21 D \XUW LQ 0LGGOHEXU\ ZKHUH D FRXSOH KDV OLYHG ² ZLWK-­ A  yurt  is  a  combination  between  RXW HOHFWULFLW\ ² IRU JRLQJ RQ IRXU \HDUV (See  Yurt,  Page  36) Independent  photo/Alex  Munteanu

Local  man  still  struggles  with  Vt.  Health  Connect By  ZACH  DESPART STARKSBORO  â&#x20AC;&#x201D;  Jeff  Keeneyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  patience  for  Vermont  Health  Connect,  the  stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  incarnation  of  the  Affordable  Care  Act,  has  run  out. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I  donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t  believe  anything  from  Vermont  Health  Connect,â&#x20AC;?  Keeney  said  late  last  week.  â&#x20AC;&#x153;Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve  been  wrong  every  step  of  the  way.â&#x20AC;?

The  Independent  featured  Keeneyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  struggle  to  register  his  family  in  the  program  back  in  December.  Keeney,  56,  is  a  self-­employed  civil  engineer.  Since  he  does  not  get  insurance  through  an  employer,  he  plans  to  enroll  himself,  his  wife  and  his  son  in  their  own  plan  through  the  health  exchange.  Keeney  started  the  online  application  in  early  November.  After  waiting  hours  on  hold  on  the  Vermont  Health  Connect  help  line,  he  appealed  to  local  state  legislators.

After  receiving  Keeneyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  letter,  Rep.  Mike  Fisher,  D-­Lincoln,  reached  out  on  the  Starksboro  manâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  behalf.  He  contacted  Department  of  Health  Access  Commissioner  Mark  Larson,  and  Keeney  got  the  help  he  needed.  After  a  few  more  hiccups,  such  as  Keeneyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  16-­year-­old  son  being  listed  as  the  primary  contact  for  the  plan,  Keeney  was  able  to  complete  the  application.  He  mailed  a  payment  on  Dec.  31,  and  waited  to  receive  an  insurance  card  for  the  policy.

More  than  two  weeks  later,  heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  still  waiting.  In  the  interim,  his  family  has  paid  for  four  doctorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  visits  out-­ of-­pocket.  Keeney  said  that  Vermont  +HDOWK &RQQHFW RIÂżFLDOV WROG KLP WKDW the  policy  would  be  backdated  to  start  Jan.  1,  but  said  he  does  not  believe  this.

About  100,000  Vermonters,  or  about  16  percent  of  the  population,  are  expected  to  enroll  in  the  program.  The  Vermont  Health  Connect  website  went  live  Oct.  1  for  people  to  examine  the  plans.  On  Nov.  1,  individuals  and  businesses  could  start  signing  up.  After  glitches  and  multiple  security  breaches,  Gov.  Shumlin  delayed  the  deadline  to  register  for  insurance  from  January  to  March.

More  bad  news  arose  for  the Â

beleaguered  program  when  Shumlin  announced  that  the  state  was  now  directing  small  businesses  to  enroll  directly  through  insurance  companies  instead  of  on  the  glitch-­ridden  website.

Keeney  sent  another  email  to  legisla-­ tors  Jan.  11. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I  have  yet  to  hear  one  person  who  has  been  happy  with  the  way  the  system  is  running,â&#x20AC;?  Keeney  wrote.  â&#x20AC;&#x153;Many  people  are  very  angry  and  they  expect  something  to  be  done  about  it.â&#x20AC;?

Rep.  Fisher,  Sen.  Christopher  Bray,  D-­New  Haven,  and  Sen.  Claire  Ayer,  D-­Addison,  responded  to  Keeney.

Fisher  acknowledged  that  he  has  heard  stories  from  other  frustrated  Vermonters,  like  Keeney,  but  added  that  others  have  found  satisfaction  in  the  program. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There  are  the  very  frustrating  and  disturbing  stories  of  Vermonters  and  Vermont  businesses  who  have  been  tied  up  by  a  system  that  was  clearly  not  functioning  when  it  was  launched,â&#x20AC;?  Fisher  wrote.  â&#x20AC;&#x153;There  is  also  a  power-­ ful  story  that  I  have  heard  many  times  both  in  our  community  as  well  as  in  the  Legislature  from  Vermonters  who  are  gaining  new  and  better  access  to  care  at  a  more  affordable  price.â&#x20AC;?

Fisher  remained  optimistic  that  the  Vermont  Health  Connect  program  will  be  a  success. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I  continue  to  be  frustrated  at  the  pace  of  improvements,  but  you  should  know  that  more  and  more  Vermonters  have  gained  access  to  VHC  plans  as  the  system  has  improved  in  recent  weeks,â&#x20AC;?  Fisher  wrote.  â&#x20AC;&#x153;It  is  too  early  to  say,  but  early  indications  are  that  more  indi-­ viduals  and  families  are  getting  covered  than  were  covered  in  the  old  system.â&#x20AC;?

Bray  encouraged  Keeney  to  stay  in  touch  with  legislators  regarding  his  struggles,  while  Ayer  said  she  agreed  with  Fisherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  response  and  that  she  shared  similar  frustrations  with  Vermont  Health  Connect. .HHQH\ VDLG KHÂśV EDIĂ&#x20AC;HG ZK\ LW KDV taken  so  long  to  receive  an  insurance  card  for  a  policy  he  has  already  paid  for.  For  the  11th  week  in  a  row,  he  will  wait,  hoping  a  resolution  will  come  soon.

At  the  Bristol  selectboard  meeting  Monday,  LaRose  complimented  his  predecessor,  who  is  also  a  member  of  the  selectboard. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I  want  to  acknowledge  Peeker  for  his  six  years  as  chief  and  many  years  as  DQ RIÂżFHU ´ /D5RVH VDLG Âł+H EHOLHYHV in  our  department  and  in  our  safety.â&#x20AC;?

Heffernan  said  he  will  still  be  an  active  member  in  the  department. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I  felt  it  was  time,  and  I  left  on  my  terms,â&#x20AC;?  Heffernan  said.  â&#x20AC;&#x153;Brett  devotes  an  enormous  amount  of  time  to  this  â&#x20AC;&#x201D;  he  certainly  has  the  skills  and  talents  to  do  an  excellent  job.â&#x20AC;?

Dining & Entertainment Faust and

Melnikov to play Weber, Beethoven Violinist Isabelle Faust and pianist Alexander Melnikov will perform to-­ gether at Middlebury College’s Mah-­ aney Center for the Arts on Thursday at 7:30 p.m. The award-­winning duo will play two Beethoven sonatas, two Weber Sonatas, and Schubert’s Fantasy in C Major.

Faust began her musical career at a very early age. She founded a string quartet when she was just 11 years old. Her vic-­ tory at the 1987 Leop-­ old Mozart C o m p e t i -­ tion, at the age of 15, raised the

BY GREG PAHL prospect of a solo ca-­ reer. After winning the 1993 Paganini Compe-­ tition, she moved to France, where she grew to love the French reper-­ toire, particularly the music of Fauré and Debussy. The New York Times says her sound has “passion, grit and electricity but also a disarm-­ ing warmth and sweetness that can unveil the music’s hidden strains of lyricism.”

Alexander Melnikov graduated from the Moscow Conservatory, where he studied under classical pianist and educator Lev Naumov, the “Godfather of the Russian piano school.” Melnikov’s most forma-­ tive musical moments in Moscow include his early encounter with the great Soviet pianist Svjatoslav Rich-­ ter, who then invited him to festivals in Russia and France. As a soloist, Melnikov has performed with or-­ chestras such as the Royal Concert-­

arts beat

THE MODERN GRASS QUINTET

grass.

The Quintet’s music is consid-­ ered contemporary, accessible, pro-­ gressive and time-­honored. Robert Resnick, host of Vermont Public Radio’s “All the Traditions,” says, “The Modern Grass Quintet is a combination of seasoned bluegrass veterans. … In addition to being great musicians, the members of the MGQ create a natural swing, which makes them stand out among many pickers. Great music, and it’ll make you want to jump!”

(BPT)  â&#x20AC;&#x201D;  The  sunny  days  of  summer  may  seem  like  a  distant  memory,  but  as  tempting  as  it  is  to  let  the  kids  curl  up  on  the  couch  when  theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re  home,  itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  important  to  keep  them  active  throughout  the  cooler  months.  Even  as  days  get  shorter,  you  can  still  use  those  free  hours  to  stay  energetic  and  fuel  their  curiosity.

Whether  your  child  is  a  bookworm,  an  artist  or  an  athlete,  here  are  some  tips  for  keeping  kidsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;  minds  and  bodies  active  during  fall  and  winter.

1.  Fuel  their  bodies  and  minds  â&#x20AC;&#x201D;  The  hours  between  lunch  and  dinner  can  give  way  to  an  afternoon  energy  slump.  Give  kids  the  fuel  they  need  for  afternoon  activities  by  providing  a  sensible  snack  thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  low  in  sugar  and  a  source  of  protein  for  steady  energy.

2.  Befriend  Mother  Nature  â&#x20AC;&#x201D;  Young  minds  love  to  explore,  and  Mother  Nature  provides  the  perfect  backdrop  for  discovery  any  time  of  year.  Bundle  up  and  head  to  a  local  park  or  conservation  area.  You  can  even  plan  a  VFDYHQJHU KXQW IHDWXULQJ ORFDO Ă&#x20AC;RUD DQG IDXQD like  acorns,  birds,  squirrels,  etc.  For  younger  kids,  focus  the  hunt  on  items  of  different  colors.  Older  kids  might  like  to  try  their  hand  at  geocaching  â&#x20AC;&#x201D;  learning  to  navigate  GPS  coordinates  to  reach  a  buried  â&#x20AC;&#x153;treasure.â&#x20AC;?

3.  Grow  something  green  â&#x20AC;&#x201D;  Dirty  hands  are  a  good  thing  when  kids  are  learning  to  care  for  plants.  Let  your  young  ones  plant  an  herb  garden  in  a  warm  windowsill.  First,  go  to  the  library  and  collect  some  basic  gardening  books.  Kids  can  read  and  choose  their  favorite  plants.  Give  kids  different  responsibilities  for  planting  and  watering  to  demonstrate  the  importance  of  teamwork.  Even  throughout  the  winter  you  can  reap  the  rewards  of  fresh  herbs Â

for  the  dinner  table.

4.  Keep  moving  all  year  round  â&#x20AC;&#x201D;  Research  has  found  that  the  winter  months  often  result  in  a  decrease  in  kidsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;  physical  activity  levels.  Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t  let  cooler  temperatures  keep  your  family  from  staying  active.  Lots  of  team  sports,  such  as  football  or  even  baseball,  can  be  fun  year-­ round  with  the  right  clothing.  Or  choose  from  snow  sports,  such  as  skiing,  ice  skating  or  snowshoeing  to  keep  active.  Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t  forget  the  best  part  after  an  active  day  in  the  cold  â&#x20AC;&#x201D;  warming  up  over  a  hot  mug  of  cocoa.

5.  Get  artsy  with  DIY  puppets  â&#x20AC;&#x201D;  With  some  paper  bags,  socks,  glue,  beads,  buttons  and  other  materials  found  around  the  house,  kids  can  create  their  own  puppets.  Have  them  make  favorite  animals  or  popular  characters  from  a  beloved  book.  Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t  stop  after  the  glue  has  dried  â&#x20AC;&#x201D;  inspire  creative  play  by  having  them  enact  their  own  puppet  show.

Porter Internal Medicine is pleased to announce the addition of

 Cynthia S. Smith, MD Board Certified in Internal Medicine.

Dr. Smith is accepting new patients.

Dr. Cynthia Smith is a Harvard Graduate who studied Classics â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Latin, a discipline she also pursued as part of Stanfordâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Center for Classical Studies in Rome. She then went on to earn her MD at Tufts with honors in Internal Medicine, Psychiatry and Primary Care.

Since moving to Vermont, she is originally from Washington State, Dr. Smith was an attending physician in Internal Medicine at University Health Center in Burlington, and an integral team member at Barre Internal Medicine.

Dr. Smith loves the outdoors and is Head Shepherd at Three Sheep Farm in Addison County, where she lives with her partner. Perhaps itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s her acumen for history? Dr. Smith is fascinated with 19th Century Vermont History in which the cottage wool industry was essential. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I like playing a role in the continuation of Vermontâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s early history,â&#x20AC;? notes Dr. Smith. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Back then it wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be at all unusual to be a Doctor and a Shepherd all at the same time.â&#x20AC;?

CONTINUING THE TRADITION Doctors James Malcolm & Alan Ayer â&#x20AC;&#x201C; proud of their 30-year tradition of caring represented by Addison Associates in Obstetrics and Gynecology â&#x20AC;&#x201C; are enthusiastic about the bright future that Doctors Benvenuto, Turner and Wagner will help to ensure. Each doctor is board certified in OB/GYN.

Anna Benvenuto received  her  BA  from  Middlebury  College  and  absolutely  loves  living  in  Addison  County.  After  earning  her  MD  at  UVM  she  continued  to  do  her  residency  at  Fletcher  Allen.  â&#x20AC;&#x153;Maintaining  meaningful,  long-­term  relationships  with  my  patients  is  key  to  my  professional  outlook  and  goals.  Not  sure  which  is  more  beautiful  â&#x20AC;&#x201C;  the  Adirondacks  or  the  Green  Mountains,  so  the  kids  and  I  hike  &  bike  in  both.â&#x20AC;?

David Turner  studied  at  Dartmouth  Medical  School,  and  received  his  MD  from  Brown  University  School  of  Medicine.  Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re  lucky  to  have  him  back  on  this  coast  and  the  shores  of  Lake  Champlain  after  his  residency  at  Tacoma  Family  Medicine.  â&#x20AC;&#x153;I  believe  in  educating  patients  so  they  can  make  their  own  decisions  about  their  care.  Love  to  play  soccer!â&#x20AC;?

Katherine Wagner earned  her  MD  from  UVM  and  did  both  her  Internship  and  Residency  in  OB/GYN  at  Fletcher  Allen.  â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  crucial  that  we  donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t  lose  sight  of  compassion  as  we  continually  strive  for  the  most  up-­to-­date  care.  Living  on  our  family  farm  and  cooking  home-­grown  meals  helps  me  keep  perspective  on  whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  important.â&#x20AC;?

Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re proud of our legacy of providing complete, flexible, specialty OB/GYN care. Our team of providers specializes in: Office Gynecology and Obstetrical Care, Family Planning, Gynecological Surgery including Laparoscopic Procedures, Menopause, Infertility and In-Office Ultrasounds.

Hobbies (Continued  from  Page  17) challenge  to  an  otherwise  mundane  lifestyle.  Hobbies  generally  have  a  positive  effect  on  self-­esteem  as  well.  Workplace  or  interpersonal  stress  can  have  a  negative  effect  on  a  personâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  ego,  whereas  a  hobby  can  help  rebuild  self-­ worth  and  be  a  reminder  of  the  things  you  do  best.

Routine alcohol screening can prevent alcoholism BURLINGTON  â&#x20AC;&#x201D;  Only  9  percent  of  Vermont  adults  in  the  past  year  were  asked  by  a  doctor,  nurse  or  health  care  professional  about  their  alcohol  use.  This  is  far  less  than  the  national  average  of  one  in  six  reported  in  January  2014  by  the  Centers  for  Disease  Control  and  Prevention  (CDC).  The  CDC  report  shows  that  alcohol  screening  and  brief  counseling  can  reduce  the  amount  of  alcohol  consumed  â&#x20AC;&#x201D;  on  one  occasion  â&#x20AC;&#x201D;  by  25  percent  for  those  who  drink  too  much.

High-­risk  drinking  is  a  public  health  problem  in  Vermont.  Half  of  all  young  adults  age  18  to  24  drink  to  excess.   The  Health  Department  hopes  to  educate  health  care  professionals  about  the  importance  of  asking  adults  about  drinking  habits  and  behaviors  as  part  of  a  regular  checkup  or  appointment. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The  majority  of  Vermonters  who  drink  too  much  are  not  alcoholics,â&#x20AC;?  said  Barbara  Cimaglio,  deputy  health  commissioner.  â&#x20AC;&#x153;Over  time,  binge  drinking  disrupts  lives  and  leads  to  life-­threatening  health  conditions:  liver  disease,  certain  cancers,  heart  disease,  stroke  and  other  chronic  illnesses.â&#x20AC;?

Vermontâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  approach  to  the  problem  of  high  risk  drinking  has  been  to  fund  and  support  community  coalitions  to  make  local  assessments  and  create  and  share  local  solutions.  The  Health  Department  recently  received  a  $9.9  million  Screening, Â

Brief  Intervention,  and  Referral  to  Treatment  (SBIRT)  grant  to  help  medical  professionals  provide  brief  interventions  to  reduce  the  risk  of  substance  abuse.  9HUPRQW ZDV RQH RI RQO\ ¿YH VWDWHV LQ WKH nation  selected  to  receive  the  2013  SBIRT  U.S.  Department  of  Health  and  Human  Services  award.  The  funds  will  be  distributed  through  2018  to  help  identify,  reduce  and  prevent  alcohol  and  illicit  drug  dependence  and  abuse  through  early  screening  and  intervention.

Brief  counseling  involves  using  a  set  of  questions  to  screen  all  patients  for  how  much  and  how  often  they  drink,  counseling  patients  about  the  health  dangers  of  drinking  too  much,  and  referring  only  those  few  patients  who  need  specialized  treatment  for  alcohol  dependence. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We  anticipate  20  percent  of  those  people  who  are  screened  will  require  a  brief  intervention  and  about  three  percent  will  be  referred  to  treatment,â&#x20AC;?  Cimaglio  said.  â&#x20AC;&#x153;These  may  seem  like  a w k w a r d  conversations,  but  as  a  health  care  provider,  these  are  important  questions  to  ask,  and  it  could  reduce  excessive  drinking  statewide.â&#x20AC;?  T h e  Health  Department  also  has  a  campaign  called  Parent  Up  campaign  that  leverages  SDUHQWDO LQĂ&#x20AC;XHQFH DQG not  wanting  to  disappoint  a  parent,  as  the  most  effective  way  to  reduce  underage  drinking.

Foot Reflexology & Foot Massage Foot reflexology, developed in ancient times, is now used as a non-invasive healing therapy.

It is based on the knowledge that there are reflexes in the feet, which correspond to every organ, gland, and each part of the body.

Therapeutically applying pressure with the fingers and thumbs to particular points in the feet serves to relax tension, relieve stress, improve circulation, balance energy, and restore the natural functioning of the related areas in the body.

Hour long sessions will include a soothing footbath, the application of reflexology techniques, and a gentle foot message.

Treat yourself!

Relax, feel better, and say thank you to your feet!

Editorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  Note:  This  article  was  provided  by  the  American  Centers  for  Disease  Control  and  Prevention  as  part  of  a  series  of  weekly  articles  relating  to  heart  health  running  throughout  the  month  of  February,  American  Heart  Month.

Every  journey  begins  with  one  step,  whether  itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  climbing  a  mountain  or  preventing  heart  disease.  Heart  disease  is  a  major  problem  in  the  United  States.  Every  year,  about  715,000  Americans  have  a  heart  attack.  About  600,000  people  die  from  heart  disease  in  the  United  States  each  year  â&#x20AC;&#x201D;  thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  one  out  of  every  four  deaths.  Heart  disease  is  the  leading  cause  of  death  for  both  men  and  women.

The  term  â&#x20AC;&#x153;heart  diseaseâ&#x20AC;?  refers  to  several  types  of  heart  conditions.  The  most  common  type  in  the  United  States  is  coronary  heart  disease  (also Â

called  coronary  artery  disease),  which  occurs  when  a  substance  called  plaque  builds  up  in  the  arteries  that  supply  blood  to  the  heart.  Coronary  heart  disease  can  cause  heart  attack,  angina,  heart  failure,  and  arrhythmias.

Cardiovascular  disease,  including  heart  disease  and  stroke,  costs  the  United  States  $312.6  billion  each  year.  This  total  includes  the  cost  of  health  care  services,  medications,  and  lost  productivity.  These  conditions  also  are  leading  causes  of  disability,  preventing  Americans  from  working  and  enjoying  family  activities.

The  situation  is  alarming,  but  there  is  good  news  â&#x20AC;&#x201D;  heart  disease  is  preventable  and  controllable.  We  can  start  by  taking  small  steps  every  day  to  bring  our  loved  ones  and  ourselves  closer  to  heart  health.  One  Step  at  a  Time As  you  begin  your  journey  to  better  heart  health,  keep  these  things  in  mind: (See  Heart  healthy,  Page  27)

DRY EYES

r PQ CTVKHKEKCN RTGUGTXCVKXGU GXGT

Winter can be an especially difficult time for patients who suffer from dry eyes. Exposure to wind, dry air, artificial heat, and smoke from woodstoves or fireplaces can speed tear evaporation and irritate the ocular surface. Dry eye symptoms may include stinging, burning, scratchiness, excessive reflex tearing, and discomfort when wearing contact lenses.

The mainstay of dry eye treatment is tear replacement with artificial tears. These are overthe-counter lubricant drops that can be used as needed up to several times a day. Preservativefree artificial tears are available for those who need to use artificial tears more than every two hours. Thicker tears, gels and ointments are also available for more severe forms of dry eye.

Medicated eye drops containing cyclosporine may sometimes be prescribed to help the tear glands increase production. Steroid eye drops are also prescribed occasionally for discomfort and inflammation but are only for short-term use.

Another treatment for dry eyes is the placement of punctal plugs in the tear duct openings to block the tear drainage system and keep more tears on the eye surface.

Tears evaporate like any other liquid. You can take steps to prevent evaporation. In winter, when indoor heating is in use, a humidifier or a pan of water on the radiator adds moisture to dry air. Wraparound glasses may reduce the drying effect of the wind.  Some people may find dry-eye relief by supplementing their diet with omega-3 fa$y acids, which are found naturally in foods like oily fish (salmon, sardines, anchovies) and flax seeds.

See your eye care provider for evaluation and treatment if you feel you suffer from dry eyes.

Commodore  girlsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;  hoop  beats  Missisquoi,  48-­21 By  ANDY  KIRKALDY VERGENNES  â&#x20AC;&#x201D;  Given  that  the  Vergennes  Union  High  School  girlsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;  basketball  team  features  only  two  seniors  on  its  roster,  Coach  Billy  Waller  says  a  major  concern  is  that  the  Commodores  show  progress.  After  Friday  nightâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  home  game  vs.  Missisquoi,  Waller  can  probably  put  a  check  mark  in  that  box.

After  spotting  the  T-­Birds  the  opening  hoop,  the  Commodores  erupted  for  a  16-­0  run  that  featured  crisp  ball  movement,  balanced  scor-­ ing  and  tough  defense.

The  3-­6  Commodores  led  the  T-­Birds  by  16-­4  after  one  and  by  double  digits  the  rest  of  the  way  in  a  48-­21  victory.  Even  granting  MVUâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  1-­9  record,  the  win  was  impressive.  By  way  RI FRPSDULVRQ 0RXQW 0DQVÂżHOG which  in  December  defeated  VUHS  in  Vergennes  by  20,  only  defeated  the  T-­Birds  at  MMU  by  17.  MVU  also  only  lost  to  6-­2  Milton  by  12.

Junior  Commodore  point  guard  K.C.  Ambrose  â&#x20AC;&#x201D;  who  scored  11  points  and  contributed  seven  assists  and  six  rebounds  on  Friday  â&#x20AC;&#x201D;  said  she  saw  the  progress.  â&#x20AC;&#x153;That  is  one  of  our  best  games,â&#x20AC;?  Ambrose  said,  â&#x20AC;&#x153;and  weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re  capable  of  doing  that.â&#x20AC;?

The  Commodores  and  their  coach  also  said  their  42-­16  loss  two  days  before  at  powerhouse  Mount  Abra-­ KDP JDPH WKHP FRQÂżGHQFH $P-­ brose  said  they  refused  to  wilt  under  the  Eaglesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;  relentless  pressure,  and  maintain  that  intensity  helped  on  Friday. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Even  though  the  score  was  a  little  off  (on  Wednesday),  we  played  our  hearts  out,â&#x20AC;?  Ambrose  said.  â&#x20AC;&#x153;It  prepared  us  for  tonight  â&#x20AC;Ś  We  went  out  thinking  we  could  do  it,  and  we  did.â&#x20AC;?

Waller  said  the  Commodores  learned  and  grew  facing  Mount  Abe. â&#x20AC;&#x153;(That)  team  plays  defense  so  well,  I  think  the  girls  felt  some  space  tonight,  and  they  were  rewarded  when  they  took  some  shots,â&#x20AC;?  Waller  said.

Those  shots  started  to  fall  at  5:20  RI WKH ¿UVW ZKHQ $PEURVH VHW XS

senior  guard  Breanna  LaPan,  who  VDQN WKH ÂżUVW WKUHH RI KHU SRLQWV to  make  it  3-­2.  Next,  Ambrose  went  coast-­to-­coast  before  swishing  a  three-­pointer  from  the  corner.  Ambrose  next  assisted  a  three-­ pointer  by  senior  Taylor  Paquette  â&#x20AC;&#x201D;  who  recorded  game  highs  of  12  points  and  nine  rebounds  â&#x20AC;&#x201D;  and  then  hit  a  three-­pointer  of  her  own  to  make  it  12-­2.

The  Commodores  capped  their  run  with  a  Paquette  jumper  assisted  by  Ambrose  and  a  fast-­break  con-­ version  by  sophomore  Sarah  Poiri-­ er-­Thayer  that  came  after  she  stole  the  ball,  one  of  the  eight  T-­Bird  turn-­ overs  the  Commodores  forced  in  the  ¿UVW TXDUWHU Early  on  Waller  appreciated  how  well  the  Commodores  passed  and  kept  their  feet  moving  against  MVUâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  man-­to-­man  defense.  â&#x20AC;&#x153;The  thing  that  I  liked  tonight  was  ZH VHW WKH WRQH WKH ÂżUVW TXDUWHU E\ moving  the  ball  so  well,â&#x20AC;?  Waller  said.  Two  late  free  throws  by  MVUâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  Meghan  Leadbetter  set  the  score  at  16-­4  after  one  period,  and  when  T-­ Bird  forward  Sadie  Reynolds  (11  points)  opened  the  second  quarter  with  a  short  jumper  over  the  Com-­ modoresâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;  2-­3  zone,  it  was  16-­6.  VUHS  answered.  Freshman  Shay  Pouliot  hit  a  jumper  and  LaPan  sank  a  three-­pointer,  both  after  catching  passes  from  Ambrose,  and  it  was  21-­6.  The  Commodores  then  went  into  an  offensive  funk,  with  only  a  put-­ back  from  sophomore  center  Nikki  6DOOH\ VHYHQ SRLQWV ÂżYH UHERXQGV

Finally,  a  drive  by  Poirier-­Thayer  and  a  Paquette  putback  restored  or-­ der  and  made  it  27-­12,  VUHS,  at  the  half.  The  two  VUHS  putback  hoops  in  the  period  were  no  accidents:  Including  team  rebounds,  VUHS  (See  Commodores,  Page  31)

First  and  foremost  we  wish  to  thank  the  Vermont  Arts  Council  IRU D JUDQW WKDW VLJQL¿FDQW-­ ly  increased  our  outreach  for  this  2013  season.  In  order  to  secure  this  grant,  we  needed  to  raise  a  dollar-­for-­dollar  cash  match.  We  did  so  because  of  the  generosity  of  Holmes  Jacobs  and  Two  Brothers  Tavern,  John  Wallace  and  the  Bob  MacKenzie  Blues  Band,  Neat  Re-­ peats,  National  Bank  of  Middle-­ bury,  The  Lodge  at  Otter  Creek,  silent  auction  donors,  and  all  those  who  came  to  our  fundraiser  and  gave  the  needed  dollars.

The  town  of  Middlebury,  especially  retired  Planner  Fred  Dunnington  and  Treasurer  Jackie  Sullivan,  stepped  up  to  be  the  le-­ JDO DQG ÂżQDQFLDO UHFLSLHQW IRU WKLV state  grant.  We  couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t  have  done  it  without  them.

The  2013  season  exceeded  all  expectations.  Attendance  and,  more  importantly,  business  and  VDOHV ZHUH XS VLJQL¿FDQWO\ 7R WKH 100-­plus  participating  artists  and  30-­plus  venues  we  owe  our  thanks  and  wishes  for  continued  success.

To  donors  during  the  season  â&#x20AC;&#x201D;  especially  the  Addison  Indepen-­ dent,  our  media  sponsor;Íž  Marselis  Parsons  and  WCAX  TV;Íž  and  Neat Â

Christmas  shop WKDQNIXO IRU VR many  donors The  generosity  of  local  people  never  ceases  to  amaze  me.  Because  of  the  Christmas  spirit  of  so  many,  St.  Maryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  Christmas  Shop  was  able  to  give  gifts  to  643  individuals,  both  children  and  adults,  from  145  low-­income  families.  Gifts  included  toys,  clothing,  and  household  items.  All  gifts  were  greatly  appreciated  and  helped  many  families  in  the  area  to  have  a  merrier  Christmas.

I  want  to  thank  all  the  many  people  from  the  Bristol,  Vergennes,  Brandon  and  Middlebury  areas  who  donated  so  many  wonderful  gifts  to  St.  Maryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  Christmas  Shop.  Many  thanks  also  to  the  following  businesses  and  organizations  who  donated  items:  The  National  Bank  of  Middlebury,  Toys  for  Tots  (Bill  Beck  Real  Estate),  Taylor  Rental  Center,  Addison  County  Home  Health  and  Hospice,  Green  Moun-­ WDLQ 6KRH DQG $SSDUHO :DLWVÂżHOG and  Champlain  Valley  Telecom,  Ben  Franklin,  St.  Anne  Society,  and  St.  Peterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  Knights  of  Columbus.

This  year,  Bonnieâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  Book  Foundation  gave  a  new  book  to  each  child,  from  a  large  selection  of  books,  which  was  very  special.  And  a  big  thank  you  to  the  knitters  who  made  hats,  scarves  and  mittens  for  the  children,  and  the  20  volun-­ teers  who  helped  to  set  up  and  man  the  shop.   The  work  of  many  was  essential  to  the  Christmas  Shopâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  operation.  Thank  you  one  and  all.

They  also  suggest  that  you  give  yourself  plenty  of  time  to  build  the  platform  and  that  you  go  to  auctions  for  old-­fashioned  furniture  that  is  more  apt  for  simple  living.  It  can  be  tricky  to  furnish  a  yurt  since  it  is  in  a  circle,  so  it  is  important  to  really  plan  out  what  you  want  to  include  in  the  home.  Size  is  also  an  important  consideration;Íž  Eckles  and  Conradâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  yurt  has  a  diam-­ eter  of  20  feet.The  couple  had  to  get  rid  of  basically  anything  that  required  electricity,  but  also  a  futon  couch  and  RWKHU IXUQLWXUH WKDW GLGQÂśW ÂżW Their  truck,  which  runs  on  used  vegetable  oil  from  local  restaurants,  is  their  main  source  of  power  for  little  things  like  charging  cell  phones  and  Ecklesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;  iPad.  They  have  downsized  to  a  single-­car  household  and  the  vegeta-­ ble  oil  increases  gas  mileage  and  has  D VLJQLÂżFDQWO\ VPDOOHU HQYLURQPHQWDO impact.  Another  thing  that  they  donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t  plan  on  changing  once  their  house  is  built  is  their  driveway.  Currently  it  doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t  exactly  look  like  a  driveway,  especially  with  snow  blanketing  it.  More  it  looks  like  a  wide  path  into  the  woods.  It  stretches  a  half-­mile  but  they  donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t  want  to  pay  for  plowing  because  of  the  energy  and  fossil  fuels  that  that  would  consume.

They  donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t  plan  to  improve  the  driveway  when  the  cordwood  home  is  completed  in  three  or  four  years.

Their  harmony  with  nature  is  clearly  evident  from  how  they  have  chosen  to  live.  Every  day  Eckles  and  Conrad  are  working  to  be  better  about  how  they  use  materials.  The  couple  will  give  a  talk  on  yurt  living  and  the  environ-­ ment  on  Feb.  11  at  7  p.m.  at  the  Ilsley  Public  Library  in  Middlebury.

Even  though  Eckles  and  Conrad  needed  to  give  up  a  lot  to  live  this  way,  it  seems  that  they  have  gained  it  all  back  in  personal  happiness  and  con-­ tentment  within  the  natural  world.  â&#x20AC;&#x153;We  try  to  work  with  nature  instead  RI ÂżJKWLQJ DJDLQVW LW ´ VDLG &RQUDG

It’s against the law to discriminate when advertising housing related activities.

Particularly on sites like Craigslist.

And it’s easier to break the law than you might think. You can’t say “no children” or “adults only.”

There is lots you can’t say. The federal government is watching for such discrimination.

Let us help you sift through the complexities of the Fair Housing Law. Stay legal. Stay on the right side of the nation’s Fair Housing Law. Call the Addison Independent at (802) 388-­4944.

Bravo!

Our 2013-14 Membership Drive has reached its goal of 500 members (531 to be exact) and we want to say bravo, hooray, and huzzah to everyone who supports Town Hall Theater. Without our members, this show wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t go on. Ticket sales only pay for a fraction of what it takes to run a theater, so itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s our members who underwrite our terrific variety of programming â&#x20AC;&#x201C; plays, dances, operas, art, kidâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s shows, films, classes, musicals, and everything else that we offer.

THT Members, you may think youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re behind the scenes, but to us youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re the real stars. Thank you. $QRQ\PRXV Â&#x2021; +DUULV -DQ $EERWW Â&#x2021; 6WHSKHQ .DWKHULQH $EERWW Â&#x2021; $UQROG 0LOGUHG $EHOVRQ Â&#x2021; 'RQDOG $EHOVRQ -RVHSK (YHUHWW Â&#x2021; /RUUDLQH - $EUDPVRQ Â&#x2021; 6X]DQQH % $OOHQ Â&#x2021;
