FEMA will pay for washed-out culvertMarch 24,2013
FEMA will pay for
washed-out culvert
MONTPELIER The Federal Emergency Management Agency has agreed to fund the replacement of a large culvert in Townshend that was washed out by Tropical Storm Irene.
Gov. Peter Shumlin and the states congressional delegation saidthe ruling could be a precedent allowing dozens of Vermont towns to qualify to be reimbursed by FEMA for 90 percent of the costs of similar projects.
Shumlin said the decision is critical for Townshend and the dozens of other Vermont communities that rebuilt culverts to withstand future flooding.
The old corrugated metal culvert was completely washed out by flooding from the August 2011 storm. Townshend replaced it with a new open-bottom culvert more likely to withstand future flooding.
Now FEMA will help pay Townshends $100,000 additional cost.MORE IN Vermont NewsMONTPELIER A panel created by the Vermont Legislature to study the growth of solar power in...

Good Points
Works OK when it has power!
Bad Points
Ni-Cad battery died within one year.
General Comments
This strimmer uses Ni-Cad battery technology which is prone to "memory" effect if it is not fully charged & then discharged regularly. My battery died in the first year & the replacement battery is > £50. Previously I had a FLYMO cordless strimmer & this lasted for years!
Interestingly if you check the Bosch web site they have just re-launched this product including a Lithium ion power pack. Li-ion batteries are far superior to Ni-Cads as they last longer & do not suffer from the memory effect (most laptop computers use Li-ion technology).

Jeffrey Baldwin: Why has it taken so long for coroner's inquest?
Grandparents had "horrific history" of child abuse but didn't receive background checks, inquest hears.
|Report an Error
Share via Email
A simple background check might have saved Jeffrey Baldwin.
Instead, the 5-year-old was starved, neglected and locked in a cold, urine-soaked bedroom — dead in 2002 at the hands of his grandparents, who, if children's aid societies had bothered to look, would have been revealed as having a "horrific history" of child abuse.
Revealed on Monday, the first day in a long-awaited coroner's inquest into the boy's death, this oversight offers insight into his tragic story — and a major lesson in how to ensure it is never repeated. But with the welfare of other children in care at stake, why has it taken more than a decade to determine precisely how the system failed Jeffrey?
The main reason is that a coroner's inquest, which is meant to focus the public attention on the circumstances surrounding a death, can't be called until after all legal matters — including appeal periods — are completed.
"In the interest of natural justice, we cannot be conducting inquests when there are other judicial proceedings that take precedent," said Cheryl Mahyr, issues manager for the coroner's office. "It's prejudicial to conduct a fact-finding exercise when somebody's facing a jail term. That's not fair."
The coroner's office announced the inquest into Jeffrey's death in March 2011, several weeks after the appeals of Elva Bottineau and Norman Kidman were rejected. Bottineau and Kidman were convicted of second-degree murder in their grandson's death in 2006.
Mahyr said it typically takes about two years to get the logistics in place for an inquest after it is called, a process that includes conducting an investigation, obtaining a Crown and securing a locale.
"There's a lot involved in planning an inquest, especially one that's expected to last about three months," she said.
In the 11 years since Jeffrey died, significant changes have been put in place at children's aid societies across the province, including Catholic Children's Aid Society (CCAS), the agency that placed the boy and his siblings with their grandparents in 1998. In addition to increased family history, background and record checks, relatives who become caregivers are also subjected to the same rigorous standards as foster parents and adoptive parents.
Ontario Child Advocate Irwin Elman said he hoped the inquest would address, among other questions, "How can we have this kind of process happen more quickly?
"These are children, and they are children who … we as a province have made a commitment to. There is no more important group of people in the province to examine when we have let them down so badly when they have died," Elman told the Star. "The inquest should have happened immediately, the moment it was called, because there's not a moment to lose."
On Monday, the inquest heard that neither CCAS nor the York Children's Aid Society, which both had dealings with the family, realized that both grandparents had previous convictions for child abuse.
"After the grandparents were granted custody of each child by the court, the children's aid society closed their file and no worker oversaw or checked in on the family," said Jill Witkin, counsel for the coroner.
"Moreover, no worker performed any background checks on Elva and Norman prior to the transfer of a child, no criminal record checks and no internal checks of past society files," she said. "Had proper checks been done, they would have revealed a horrific history of incapable parenting and child abuse."
Jeffrey hadn't been to the doctor since he was 17 months old, wasn't enrolled in school and neighbours in Toronto never saw him outside, Witkin said.
He died on November 30, 2002 of bacterial bronchopneumonia as a complication of chronic starvation. The condition reduced his immune system and he developed pneumonia in both lungs. Jeffrey had breathed in fecal bacteria, causing septic shock, Witkin said. He weighed 21 pounds, about the same as he did on his first birthday.
The inquest also heard a recording of the 911 call Bottineau placed the day he died.
"Apparently my grandson is not breathing right now," she says.
Jeffrey has recently stopped eating and drinking and "might have had a touch of the flu," Bottineau says.
The call ends as paramedics arrive and one can be heard in the background asking, "What's the history, folks?"
"His history's fine," she says.

Milton Glaser's cover for Aaron Lightman's self-titled LP
Milton Glaser designed this LP sleeve for Poppy Records' original issue of Aaron Lightman's debut LP. Reissued in 2009 by Wah Wah Records, music mail order boutique Forced Exposure had this to say about this album:
This amazing LP from 1969 is one of the most beautiful hidden gems in the field of pop arranged singer-songwriters. Originally issued on Poppy Records, home of psych heads The Mandrake Memorial among others, Lightman's LP deserves to be discovered by all the fans of the soft rock, orchestra arranged sounds. Think of an American reply to the early works of Duncan Browne, Bill Fay, Nick Garrie or even Donovan at his most popsike recordings. Fans of the early Bee Gees will also enjoy this LP! Credit for the arrangements and production goes to the great Ron Frangipane and David Christopher, who is also credited as a co-writer of the albums songs. The album came housed in a beautiful Milton Glaser sleeve (Glaser was the main designer at Poppy at that time) which the Wah Wah reissue respects, and featured an insert with the lyrics which is also reproduced on our reissue. Housed in quality sleeves and pressed in 180 gram thick black vinyl for the delight of the most discriminating audiophiles. Limited to 500 copies!

Justine & Balthazar
I'm always interested to see how different artists interpret of the same source material. Zach featured James McMullan's boxed Alexandria Quartet some months ago, but I'd forgotten that Milton Glaser also created book jackets for at least two volumes (Justine and Balthazar) of Lawrence Durrell's tetrology for Pocket Books in 1969; I can't determine whether he also designed jackets for Clea and Mountolive.
While McMullan's work from the early 1960s is close in spirit to the evocative illustration of his colleagues Robert Weaver and Jerome Martin, Glaser's late 1960s take shows a pop/psych style then at its height. The art is very much in keeping with other work that Glaser was doing at the time, with its flowing curvilinear lines and high contrast colors, which also, intentional or not, indicate some churning emotional content.

Another riff on Milton Glaser's indefatigable Dylan poster, here for a book by Roots drummer Questlove. It's interesting the jacket designer also uses a Baby Teeth-esque typeface (though it looks a little wonky?). Anyway, some amusing stories have been bubbling up from this particular volume, including (on Slate) The Time I Went Roller Skating With Prince. Some of earlier, amusingly candid versions of these stories can also be found at the website Questlove's Celebrity Stories.

Man in the shadows
Wilfrid Sheed, who died in 2011, was a sharp, flinty prose stylist too often overshadowed by his more explicitly experimental or social-commentary-oriented contemporaries. The acerbic flavor of his art may be best enjoyed in Max Jamison (1970). The next novel, People Will Always Be Kind (named after a line in a Siegfried Sassoon poem) was less heralded but continued to refine his style and adapt it to the world around him (somewhat comparably to Saul Bellow's middle work). In Dwight Garner's sensitive appreciation, he emphasizes Sheed's biting essay style:
"Mushy reviews are a breach of faith," he declared, and the skin on his compositions was salt-crusted. One review began: "Of Ezra Pound, as of Bobby Fischer, all that can decently be said is that his colleagues admire him." Another began this way: "Scott Fitzgerald is a sound you like to hear at certain times of the day, say at four in the afternoon and again late at night, and at other times it makes you slightly sick." Another stated: "Books about suicide make lousy gifts."
He wanted to live in a world in which one could find "Gershwin playing all night in penthouses, while George Kaufman fired one-liners into the guests and Harpo scrambled eggs in their hats." Milton Glaser's cover, with its punchy color combined with austere but evocative line, seems neatly suited to such a world.

CRABCAKES AND FOOTBALL: In Baltimore, Alexander Jackson notes by hosting an AFC divisional playoff game this Sunday, the Ravens, the state of Maryland, and its businesses "are ready to rake in more cash than they have in years." The Ravens could make "at least four times what the franchise would have on the road for a playoff game." Ravens VP/Corporate Sales & Development Mark Burdett said that the team's take from a road playoff "would have been around $250,000." That number "may surpass $1 million with a home game." Jackson notes taxes on tickets at M&T Bank Stadium "alone will add about $500,000 to the state's coffers." In addition, companies that have "teamed up with the Ravens through sponsorships and broadcasting deals, like M&T Bank Corp. and WBAL Radio, may get a big January bump in revenue." Burdett said that "most regular-season sponsors, like Merritt Properties Inc., have ponied up disclosed amounts to put their logo in the stadium and lock up their suites" for this weekend's game (BALTIMORE BUSINESS JOURNAL, 1/6 issue).
BROUGHT TO YOU BY...: The U.S. Army and the Ad Council today unveiled a new TV PSA featuring Heat F LeBron James designed to highlight the dropout crisis in America and encourage adults nationwide to motivate and inspire students in their communities. The spot was created by advertising agency Publicis New York (THE DAILY).
MAKING A RUN: Several companies had a major presence on ESPN's pregame coverage of the BCS National Championship game last night, including Taco Bell, which promoted its latest product. Coming back from commercial, two fans were seen racing to see who could put tacos into a box faster. ESPN's Chris Fowler noted, "Fans in New Orleans enjoying themselves at the Taco Bell Fanfest, trying to fill the brand-new Taco 12-Pack box" ("Bud Light BCS Pregame Show," ESPN, 1/9).

The audio guide was very well-written. Would like to see more models, and the school's effect on other/modern designs as well.
3 Days in Berlin
Romantic Guide to Berlin
Berlin Off the Beaten Path
Though a little run down on the outside the interior was full of cutting edge designs from the Bauhaus era that are still relevant today, fascinating.
If you want to know about Bauhaus thus is the place, I know and care very little but now know far more and appreciate it more too, easy to see influence over today's furniture retailers! Son really enjoyed it which help support his art at school.
Very educational museum explaining where the Bauhaus movement came from with many illustrative examples of Bauhaus design. Worthwhile for anyone interested in modern design.
Ever bought anything from Ikea? Marveled at a steel and glass skyscraper? Delighted in modern design? Then chances are the designer or architect owes a huge debt of gratitude to the total design aesthetic of the international group of artists, designers and architects that gathered and taught and practised under the Bauhaus banner in Germany before WW2. The Bauhaus Arhciv...
Good to experience with a fantastic if not small gift shop. Not to everyone's interest but really enjoyed the experience.
The Bauhaus Archive is a fascinating small museum dedicated to the artistic woks of a collective of artists based in Germany between 1919 and 1933 it was more a school of thought than a group of artists and attracted notable artists like Paul Kee, Wassily Kandinsky and Lyonel Feininger to its followers.
The museum has on show a range of...
Lots to see and some to touch. The building itself was interesting with a lovely woodblock flooring. Helpful staff. Good audio guide. Shop tempting, but expensive!
long walk there and the place is quite small and really not that interesting. The limited collection made it the least favourite of all the amazing places we have seen in Berlin
You can not miss Bauhaus. All exhibitions presented might not be unforgettable, but there is plenty to learn from this art movement.

Sustainability means meeting the needs of the present without compromising the future. Examples range from throwing an increasingly rare fish back into the lake to switching from finite fossil fuels to renewable solar, wind or water power.
Although sustainability might strike some retailers as idealistic or esoteric, efforts to achieve it can bring immediate financial rewards. Stonyfield, for example, has worked with Ryder System in a quest for sustainability that also paid off in sizeable supply chain cost reductions.
A Londonderry, N.H.-based organic yogurt, milk and ice cream supplier, Stonyfield has reduced outbound supply chain carbon emissions by 56 percent while cutting outbound supply chain costs by 21 percent, says Ryan Boccelli, the company's senior director of logistics. He bases those figures on 2010 results compared with a 2006 baseline.
Between 2006 and 2010, Miami-based Ryder helped Stonyfield eliminate 4.9 million miles of unneeded trucking, which saved $2 million in fuel costs, Boccelli says. That reduction in miles, combined with other Ryder-induced efficiencies, prevented the company's supply chain from spewing an estimated 9,786 metric tons of carbon into the atmosphere.
The reduced emissions and increased profits both mean a lot to a company founded in 1983 as a nonprofit organic farming school, Boccelli says. Stonyfield later became the first U.S. manufacturer to offset 100 percent of its factory CO2 emissions, and one of its founders wrote a book entitled Stirring It Up: How to Make Money and Save the World.
But offsets, good intentions and the profit motive failed to curb the 80 to 90 percent of Stonyfield's carbon emissions that came from the supply chain — activities that include producing the milk on the farm, shipping ingredients and packaging to the factory and delivering finished products nationwide from a plant in the Northeast corner of the country, Boccelli says.
In the face of such challenges, achieving an idealistic goal like supply chain sustainability takes plenty of real-world savvy, says Mark Swenson, vice president of business development for Ryder Supply Chain Solutions.
A 'Pony Express' system
Ryder began handling parts of Stonyfield's shipping in 2006, taking over management of Stonyfield's common carriers — the trucks owned and operated by outside companies. At the time, common carriers were handling about 85 percent of Stonyfield's outbound shipping, Boccelli recalls. Ryder's new duties ranged from negotiating contracts with carriers to monitoring carriers' results and reporting carriers' performance compared with Ryder baselines, Swenson says.
At first, Stonyfield retained control of its dedicated fleet — the two tractors, two trailers and two drivers hauling products to points in the Northeast that constituted 15 percent of outbound shipping — but initial success with the common carriers prompted Stonyfield to hand over management of the dedicated fleet a year later. The dedicated fleet soon grew to three tractors, six trailers and four drivers and began handling 20 percent of outbound shipments.
Ryder set up a "Pony Express" system for the dedicated fleet: One driver pilots a truck about 250 miles to Newburgh, N.Y., where a new driver replaces the original. The Pony Express model alleviates the need for drivers to stay out overnight, enabling Ryder to use tractors without sleeping compartments – reducing weight and, as a result, boosting fuel economy.
What's more, without long hauls the truck engines no longer need to idle overnight to keep the cabs warm while the driver sleeps, Swenson says, and reducing the payload's time on the road limits the likelihood of spoilage and lessens inventory carrying costs.
Early on, Ryder introduced automated freight bills and payment, eliminating the reams of paperwork that occupied much of Boccelli's time and freeing him to concentrate on analyzing the business. "Now, we're at about 96 percent electronic," he says. Switching from paper to electronic documents also helps Ryder compile and study the data, which increases the company's understanding of the system and improvements that include route optimization, Swenson says.
End-to-end management
As part of Ryder's "end-to-end" management of outbound freight from the factory dock to the retailers' distribution centers, Stonyfield has added a second distribution center and placed it under Ryder management, Bocelli says.
Ryder uses satellites to keep tabs on trucks, making sure drivers take the most efficient routes and enabling management to redirect trucks when orders arrive for product, Swenson says. The systems also can direct trucks to the nearest fueling stations and repair shops.
Ryder's onboard technology monitors the amount of time trucks are idling and checks to see if drivers are shifting gears at the optimum moment — two ways of reducing fuel consumption and carbon emissions.
Meanwhile, Ryder has convinced truck maker Freightliner to produce tractors and trailers to Ryder's RydeGreen specifications, which call for aerodynamic mirrors, fairings and cab extenders that deflect wind, automatic tire inflation for better mileage and lighter rims to reduce weight. Synthetic oil and automatic transmissions also improve fuel economy and reduce emissions, says Swenson.
Ryder also searches for other modes of transportation. As a result, Stonyfield began using rail in 2009 and now ships 10 percent of its common-carrier volume this way, Boccelli says. The company hopes to increase that to 20 percent this year.
The future could bring other changes, too. Stonyfield has concentrated on cleaning up its own factory and outbound supply chain, but plans to lobby suppliers to reduce carbon emissions in their factories, farms and supply chains.
In studies aimed at helping Stonyfield achieve its goal of reducing greenhouse-gas emissions 75 percent by 2015, Ryder has constructed a scenario calling for a second Stonyfield plant, located in the west, and doubling the number of distribution centers to four.
"Efficiency and sustainability are highly correlated," Swenson says. "They're not mutually exclusive."
