Governors audit reveals $877 million unspent at VDBy Stephen GrovesVirginia Statehouse News
ALEXANDRIA, Va.- An audito the Virginia Departmento ransportation (VDO)revealed $877 million oavailable unding, Gov. BobMcDonnell announced onTursday.
At a press conerence in Rich-mond, the governor showedhow an outside audit o thestates transportation depart-ment wrung out money thatwill now be made available orroad construction over the
next six years. VDO will beusing the money immediately,awarding $800 million to $900million in contracts beore theend o the year.
Teres been money sittingin accounts while people havebeen sitting in trac, Mc-Donnell said.
He also mentioned a ewprojects that will be a priority the HO lanes on I-95, in-terchanges on Route 66, andthe MLK tunnel in HamptonRoads.
During the 010 scal year,the state didnt spend $480million that it was given orroad and bridge maintenance.
Tat carryover, on top o un-used money rom previous
years, gives the state $59 mil-lion that it is not using. Overhal o that, $318 million, iscommitted to contracts. But$00 million has not evenbeen allocated to a contract.
Te audit says this is a resulto projects taking too longto be approved and movedthrough the system. VDOCommissioner Greg Whir-ley said that all projects seethe same approval process,no matter how large or smallthey are.
We manage a simple turnlane just like we do a major in-terchange, he said.
Funding rom the ederalgovernment under the Amer-ican Recovery and Reinvest-ment Act also covered someprojects that normally would
have been paid or by thestate. Also, VDOs manage-
ment would not let any workstart on a project beore allunding was approved or theentire project, which haltedprojects.
But McDonnell said now isnot the time to slow down.Construction bids are lowdue to the recession, and theCommonwealths roads needimprovement.
Our systems are too slow,theyre too bureaucratic, thegovernor said.
He said he will be streamlin-
ing VDO. A large chunk omoney, $00 million, comesrom changing the amountthe agency keeps in its re-serves. Instead o a ve-and-a-hal month reserve, VDOwill keep two months wortho money on hand.
Tats a risk worth takingwhen were getting the type o
construction prices and bids
that we are nowsaid.

April 011 will now be knownas Civil War in Virginia monthrather than Conederate His-tory Month, Gov. Bob McDon-nell announced on Friday.
Te governor addressed the150th anniversary conerenceo the Civil War at NorolkUniversity, apologizing or hisblunder in omitting slavery asa cause o the war in his decla-
ration o Conederate HistoryMonth this year.
Tis was an error o haste
and not heartand it will beremedied, he said to the ,000people gathered in the univer-sitys L. Douglas Wilder center.
He encouraged the coner-ence to tackle the tough stuo Civil War history, reerringto slavery, which is the topic othe conerence.
A prosperous, dynamic, anddiverse Commonwealth is at-
tempting to remember, un-derstand, and put into properperspective one o the most
painul and bloody periods inthe history o western civili-zation. Tis is not going to beeasy. I know that rom rsthandexperience, McDonnell said.
McDonnell drew wide criti-cism over racial segregationand Civil War commemorationthis year. Even President BarackObama chided him over his
omission o slavery as a causeo the war.
But he may have struck a
compromise. Te Rev. RayeldVines, president o the Virginiastate conerence o the NAACP,praised McDonnell or his ad-dress.
He called the move charis-matic and said, I tip my hat towhat hes done. I think it will goover much better with all rac-es.

sy. But Gov. Jim Gilmore (R)struck a similar compromise asMcDonnell by including anti-slavery language in proclaimingConederate History Month.
He then changed it to a procla-mation in remembrance o thesacrices and honor o all Vir-ginians who served in the CivilWar.
Democratic Govs. im Kaineand Mark Warner decided notto touch the subject in theiradministrations. It sat idle oreight years until McDonnellapproached it again.
But when Gov. McDonnellrevived the proclamation this
year, it drew support rom hisconservative base, along withcriticism.
In his address, the governortried to pull in all sides. He said
his proclamation or next yearwill remember all Virginiansree and enslaved; Union andConederate. It will be writtenor all Virginians.
Tis strategy should pay o orMcDonnell, said Farnsworth.
Conederate history monthis not a winning political posi-tion in Virginia, he said.
With voting power shitingto the suburbs and urban cen-ters o Northern Virginia, es-
pecially with the approachingredistricting, Republicans willneed to appeal to a dierentdemographic, he said. Strikinga compromise with Coneder-
ate History month is a step inthe right direction.
Farnsworth added that con-servative voters who may notlike the governors announce-ment will still vote Republican.
Politics aside, McDonnell
expressed that the legacy othe Civil War and slavery still

Storing Window Screens
Q:Last year I took my win-dow screens down and putup my storm windows. I stored
the screens in the garage, stackingthem on their sides along the wall.But at least four of the screens weredamaged somehow over the winter.How can I prevent further damagethis winter? Hank T., Knoxville,Tenn.
A:Youll probably want to eitherfind a new location to store thescreens, or adjust the layout of yourgarage (if possible) to prevent equip-ment or people from accidentallybumping against the screens or thingsfrom falling off shelves onto them.
Screens should be stored either bylaying flat or standing upright, in adry area where the temperature is keptfairly constant. To keep dust and dirtoff of them, cover the stack with plas-
tic.One thing Ive found in older garag-es of the northeast U.S. is that theinterior walls of many of the garageswere lined with the screen windowsfrom the house. Homeowners simplyrigged up the lightweight windows tohang along the walls, protecting themfrom weather, dirt and falling objects,then reinstalled them come spring.
Another option is to reserve the topshelves of your heavy-duty garagestorage shelves to lay the screens flat,if theyll fit. This will keep the screens
off the floor, away from dampness,most dirt, falling objects and curiouschildren, and in a decent airflow situ-ation (an important consideration ifthe screen frames are wood).
If the damaged screens havent beenrepaired yet, make a note to fix themover the winter so theyll be ready toput up right away come spring. Smallholes or dings can be patched eas-ily. If the screen has a big tear or youjust want it to look uniform, replace
the entire screen. Kits are availableat your local hardware or home-improvement store.

Cash In on Clutter
If you know youll need extra cashfor the holidays, consider this: Thereis cash in clutter. By beginning nowto unload the clutter, you can accom-plish two things: getting rid of extrasthat could be stifling you, and makinga little extra money.
Wheres the clutter? Its potentiallyeverywhere.
Consider consigning clothing youhavent worn in two years, and selltoys the children dont play with any-more. Have you done a lot of retailtherapy either in stores or at yard
sales, bringing home knick-knacksyou end up dusting every week? Oldwatches, musical instruments, iPodsand mp3 players may have some valueto someone else, especially for theirparts. Sell duplicates of tools and ste-reo speakers.
If you have multiple computers,your old reject might be just the thingfor someone else. The same goes foryour older monitors and keyboards. Ifyouve amassed a large collection ofvideos and DVDs (that no one everwatches anymore), sell them and clearup some space. The same goes forbooks and craft items or hobby sup-plies that looked appealing when you
bought them.If you have far too m
items that youve keptof obligation, considetime to let them go. Fcould be valuable, get a

Dont Count Edwards Out
Carl Edwards, who wonnine races in 008, hasnt wonany since.
Yet Edwards, who was run-ner-up to Jimmie Johnson inthe 008 Chase or the SprintCup, is back in it this year andactually accumulated morepoints in the nal 10 races othe regular season than anyother driver.
Consistency has becomeEdwards key.
A 10th-place nish in theSylvania 300 at New Hamp-shire Motor Speedway let
Edwards, 31, in ninth place inthe Sprint Cup standings, 95points behind leader DennyHamlin.
Edwards, o Columbia, Mo.,elt good to put New Hamp-shire -- and a decent nish --behind him.
Everyone knows that themeat o the Chase is mile-and-a-hal tracks like Kansasand Caliornia, he said. Youdenitely want to get a goodstart, but I dont think anyonecan set the tone o the Chasehere (New Hampshire), justbecause its kind o a uniquetrack.
Te challenge, o course, isbeating Jimmie Johnson, whohas won the past our cham-pionships.
I think that we have prov-en ... that we can score morepoints than anyone in the se-ries, and thats what it is goingto take, said Edwards. Jim-mie (Johnson) did a good job... o explaining that you haveto have something to hang
your hat on. You either have
to have wins or you have tobe very consistent. You haveto have some sort o thing tobuild your team around.
We are building our hopeson the act that we haveshown, over an extended pe-riod, that we can score better
average nishes than every-one else. Now we just have togo do that. Tats what I amcounting on: the ability to godo that .
Edwards has spent his en-tire Sprint Cup career drivingRoush Fenway Racings No.99 Ford. In 005, his rst ullseason, he wound up third inthe Chase behind that yearschampion, ony Stewart, andEdwards teammate, GregBife.
Consistency is a recent ad-dition to Edwards repertoire.All 16 o his Cup victories havetaken place in three seasons --005, 007 and 008 -- but hehas qualied or the Chase inve o his six ull seasons.
Edwards won the NationwideSeries championship in 007.
