RENT BASED ON 30% OF YOUR INCOME

NATURALLY SPEAKING By Jerry Davis Opossums are not most people’s favorite harbingers of spring, but they are more reliable than the acclaimed woodchuck. One or two warm spells, whatever that means this year, bring increased activity from this non-hibernating animal. Two urges are responsible for these early marsupial ramblings; hunger and finding mates. The events that follow are interesting and bizarre. Gestation is 13 days; newborns are only partially developed; and they somehow get into their mother’s pouch, the marsupium, where they take nourishment for about 70 days. Once out of the pouch, the young may still cling to the mother’s fur or tail. Opossums do not hibernate. Their naked tails and ears are commonly frostbitten. Adults eat animal and plant material, dead and alive, including rattlesnakes, whose venom is no match for the 50 teeth opossums have.

THE RECIPE BOX

Beef and Irish Stout Stew Prep Time: 30 Minutes Cook Time: 3 Hours Ready In: 3 Hours 30 Minutes Servings: 6 “This stew is great for St. Patrick’s Day. The mixture of the beef and Guinness is awesome! I usually add more beer than the recipe calls for. Serve with mashed potatoes.”

INGREDIENTS: 2 pounds lean beef stew meat, cut into 1-inch cubes 3 tablespoons vegetable oil, divided 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour 1 pinch salt and ground black pepper to taste 1 pinch cayenne pepper 2 large onions, chopped 1 clove garlic, crushed 2 tablespoons tomato paste 1 1/2 cups Irish stout beer (such as Guinness®) 2 cups chopped carrot 1 sprig fresh thyme 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley for garnish DIRECTIONS: 1. Toss the beef cubes with 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil. In a separate bowl, stir together the flour, salt, pepper, and cayenne pepper. Dredge the beef in this to coat. 2. Heat the remaining oil in a deep skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the beef, and brown on all sides. Add the onions, and garlic. Stir the tomato paste into a small amount of water to dilute; pour into the pan and stir to blend. Reduce the heat to medium, cover, and cook for 5 minutes. 3. Pour 1/2 cup of the beer into the pan, and as it begins to boil, scrape any bits of food from the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon. This adds a lot of flavor to the broth. Pour in the rest of the beer, and add the carrots and thyme. Cover, reduce heat to low, and simmer for 2 to 3 hours, stirring occasionally. Taste and adjust seasoning before serving. Garnish with chopped parsley.

Art Auction at Botham Vineyards to Benefit Barneveld Public Library Expansion

by Kate McKinney Your senses are sure to come alive at the first annual Barneveld Public Library Art Action, planned for March 30, at picturesque Botham Vineyards and Winery. Live- and silent auctions will benefit the Barneveld Public Library expansion project. Wine tasting will compliment this event which will be held in the vineyard’s popular Back-barn Lounge. An impressive lineup of local artists have generously donated their artwork to be auctioned off in order to support the library expansion. Youth artwork from Barneveld School will also be auctioned to support this effort. The auction will include artwork from esteemed local artists, including Edward Wohl of Edward Wohl Woodworking & Design, Ridgeway. Known internationally for his signature line of bird's-eye maple cutting boards, Wohl has designed and built custom wood furniture for more than 40 years. His work is “known for its masterful design, seamless joinery, liquid-smooth finish

and quiet utility,” according to his website. “Every piece is not only gorgeous and deeply sensual, but is also eminently useful and intended to be a part of your daily life — as well as the lives of your children and grandchildren.” Form and function are also important to Frank Polizzi, of Mulberry Pottery in Mineral Point. A full-time potter for more than three decades, Polizzi produces wood-fired stoneware, flame ware and porcelain, and pit-fired earthen ware. Traditional in form, his pieces are made using locally sourced clay and food-safe glazes. Mark Skudlarek and his wife Gaea founded Cambridge Wood-fired Pottery in 1988. Their functional pots are inspired by English, French and Asian traditions. From processing the clay to turning it on the wheel, then firing the pots in a large wood-burning kiln, Skudlarek writes that their way of making pots, “pays respect to ancient traditions and produces pottery that is functional and connects us to our daily surroundings.”

We can also look forward to pieces by painter Adrienne Applegate, formerly of Spring Green, and photographer Jeremy Amble of Barneveld. Festivities will begin at 1 p.m. The live auction begins at 3 p.m., led by local auctioneer Nick Kirch. To get to Botham Vineyards from Barneveld, drive south on Jones Road to County Highway K, turn right and proceed one mile to Langberry Road. Turn right onto Langberry Road. Botham Vineyards is the first driveway on the right at 8180 Langberry Rd. Join us for this special afternoon and help support your local library. Area artists interested in submitting artwork to the auction are encouraged to contact Library Director, Carrie Portz, at 608-924-3711. Please contact the library with questions or visit the library’s Facebook page or www.barneveldpubliclibrary.org for more information regarding this and other library events.

BARNEVELD – It was spring when trout anglers took to streams for Wisconsin’s early season trout opener March 1. Spring in meteorological terms is March, April and May in Wisconsin. Talking about a meteorological spring to an early season trout angler during this opening may get a nasty look in return. But more likely, since trout season was open, most anglers were content to be out and about casting flies and lures with their fly rods or spinning rods. Most were dressed, however, as hardy ice fishermen. “It’s a tradition to be out on the opener,” said Ying Thao, from Madison, who was out to catch a trophy trout, even though he knew it couldn’t go on a wall. His early season ordeal may have been about tradition, but he couldn’t match last year’s feat during a three-hour trek on Trout Creek in eastern Iowa County. “Last year I was fishing this same hole and on my first cast I caught a 25-inch brown trout,” Thao said. “I’ve caught five small trout this morn-

ing; most were shorter than nine inches.” The opener wasn’t the coldest or the worst opener, weather-wise, but it was close, Thao said. Still, he persisted, knowing he’d go home empty-handed, but filled with the satisfaction of continuing his tradition. To help make the day memorable and tempting to the fish, Thao was using bright-colored lures, fishing slower and looking for deeper holes. But it didn’t seem to help. To top it off, the water was a lower than normal, too. Within a few weeks Thao will give up trout fishing, not because he didn’t get a trophy this year, but he turns his attention to bass and other fish as the real spring appears. Still, no fish get taken home until the catfish start biting. “If I’m going to take a fish home, it’s a catfish,” Thao said. “They’re bigger, easy to clean, and there’s a lot of meat on one fish.”

Edited by- Kristen Udelhofen On Saturday, March 1st, the Barneveld Eagles hosted the Potosi Chieftains in a rematch, except this rematch was for the Regional Championship.

After that, the Eagles outscored the Chieftains 33-23. Brycen Sorensen and Tyler Hellenbrand both had a big night having both score 13 points each.

Senior Profile: Kendra Bahr By: Savannah Schaller

Edited By: Kristen Udelhofen

Kendra Bahr is a confident and kindhearted senior at Barneveld this year. While at Barneveld, her favorite class was Advanced Composition. Her favorite teachers were Ms. Bosch and Mr. Neuroth. Kendra enjoys going to sporting events and cheering on her classmates. When not displaying her exceptional school spirit, Kendra is at dance. It is her favorite extracurricular activity, and it really shows what a dedicated person she is. Because of Kendra’s determined and positive attitude, it’s no surprise that she has big plans for the future. Kendra will be attending UW-Milwaukee in the fall to pursue Radiology. She will surely excel in this career choice, since her favorite subject is science. In ten years, Kendra wants to have a job and a family. We will miss having Kendra’s friendly smile around next year, as well as her humor. Also, we wish Kendra success and luck in her very bright future.

Barneveld School Board Member Urges U.S. Congress to Make Public Education a Top Priority

Barneveld, WI- March 3, 2014 Wanda Owens of the Barneveld school board and Vice President of the Wisconsin Association of School Boards (WASB) joined more than 750 school board and state school board association leaders in Washington D.C. to advocate for strong public schools for all students. Wanda was in Washington D.C. to take part in the National School Boards Association's (NSBA) AdvocacyInstitute. School board members also engaged in NSBA's Federal Relations Network, a national grassroots legislative effort that urges members of the U.S. Congress to make public education a top priority. "We need strong public schools to ensure that our students are well prepared for college and careers in today's rapidly changing global economy," said Wanda. "As school board members, the NSBA's Advocacy Institute helped us learn about emerging federal and national issues and the importance of adding our local expertise to the conversations in Washington to ensure that new policies are beneficial to all of our students". Resources and funding are significant concerns for local districts. School districts have recently seen cuts in their federal and state budgets because of across-the- board cuts last year through the process known as sequestration. In a day-long visit to Capitol Hill, we asked Congress to accelerate investments in public education that support local efforts to continue to raise student achievement and to appropriate full funding for Title 1 and IDEA mandates. "Local school boards understand the needs of our communities and schools and work to serve the best interests of our school districts," said Wanda. "We need Congress and the U.S. Department of Education to work with us to ensure that all students are receiving the best public education we can provide".

200 East Main Street Mount Horeb, WI 53572 I Am Your Voice Venezuela-- Highland Exchange Student Speaks Up by Valentina Clamens

problem that affects Venezuelans Editor's note: Valentina is an exchange the most is the extreme threat to student from Venezuela, currently living personal safety that has taken over in Highland, Wisconsin. every corner of the country. Even in places that were usually known as As a Venezuelan living in "safe," like universities, people live Wisconsin, I have been expecting constantly scared and worried of for the past two weeks to hear some being robbed, kidnapped or murnews about Venezuela's situation. dered.

The government say it from personal experience, the has taken control of all airways of

communication, including television and radio. Even international channels like NTN24 and CNN in Spanish have been censored or banned for recording the truth and for covering what has been happening in the marches. This means that while there is violence going on in the streets, social media does not seem to notice it. The government's news channels show the President trying to avoid the reality by talking about other topics, accusing the opposition and the U.S.A. of being "Nazis" and "fascists,"and trying to hide the actual facts. As a consequence of this repression, Twitter is the principal social media that Venezuelans have been using to communicate with each other and with the rest of the world. However, the government controlled the web page in the country making images unable to open. Also, the internet, which is controlled by the government too, has been presenting failures regularly. Hundreds of videos and pictures revealing the violence from the military to the people have been taken by civilians with their phones and published on Facebook and YouTube. Nevertheless, the government keeps denying these proofs and blaming the opposition for the violent events. After 14 years of abuses and bad politics, Venezuelans are tired. We just want to live in the country that our grandparents tell us it used to be. We just want to be able to walk in the streets without the fear of being robbed, kidnapped or murdered. We are looking forward for opportunities, jobs, education, for a better future in the country that saw us grow up. Those Venezuelans, who are foreigners in another land, are also wishing to come back. We are far away, but not absent. We have been supporting this cause from more than 150 cities around the world, showing our love for our home country. My purpose with this article is to be Venezuela's voice, to inform Americans, especially in Wisconsin, about the real situation we are going through. We need your help to share, to inform and to pray for our country. Venezuela needs international pressure in order to get out of this dictatorship. Please help us and share!

“is it worth it to advertise in your local newspaper?” For many small businesses that sell to consumers, yes it is — provided you think of your local newspaper as not being the major-metro newspaper but the local community or suburban newspaper, where the audience is targeted, the ad rates lower, and the staff motivated to place your marketing message with more of a personal touch.

BMAP CONSERVATION CONVERSATIONS EVENT MARCH 20, 2014 “The Foundations of Oak Management in the Driftless Area” Wisconsin DNR Foresters Tom Hill and Brad Hutnik Thursday March 20, 2014, 7:00-9:00 PM Location: Mount Horeb Branch of the State Bank of Cross Plains 1740 Bus 18-151 in Mount Horeb, next to Culvers Restaurant.

Refreshments will be available.
