(NY Times) — As a boy in San Antonio, Paul Flotron helped his family raise miniature schnauzers. He was there for the dogs’ births, and his family showed the dogs at competitions all over Texas. When he was 10, his family moved to St. Louis, where he accumulated “the Flotron Miniature Zoo,” including “dwarf crocodiles, African pancake tortoises, birds, boa constrictors, hermit crabs, fish, and always dogs.” Today, Flotron runs Creature Comforts Great and Small, a St. Louis petcare business, and leads Noah’s Ark, a pet ministry of Grace Church, a large nondenominational Protestant church. Noah’s Ark runs a pet-food drive, supports a no-kill rescue, brings pets to visit the sick and infirm, and hosts a grief group for those who have lost a pet. “We actually have Bible study and discuss passages that are animal related,” Flotron said. In a culture obsessed with dogs and domestic pets of all kinds, religious groups are paying attention, too. Many megachurches, where members often meet in smaller affinity groups, are sponsoring groups for pet lovers. In 2007, the Humane Society hired a liaison to religious communities, and next month its Web site will start a directory of affiliated ministries. In seminaries and divinity schools, the study of animals and religion is growing.

Obama administration to scrap part of health care law (NY Times) — The Obama administration announced on Friday that it was scrapping a long-term care insurance program created by the new health care law because it just would not work. Premiums for the program, known as the Community Living Assistance Services and Support (or Class) Act, would be so high that very few people would sign up, officials said. The program had a longtime champion in Senator Edward M. Kennedy, Democrat
of Massachusetts, before his death from a brain tumor in August 2009 and was seen as a breakthrough in addressing the need for long-term care. But critics, including some Democrats, said they feared that it was unworkable. Some administration officials shared that concern, but did not speak up when the law was passed in March 2010. Last month, workers were reassigned from the office that was developing the program, but at the time, Erin Shields, direc-
tor of communications for health issues at the federal Department of Health and Human Services, said only that the office was being “reduced” and that a study of the program was continuing. “As we have said in the past, it is an open question whether the program will be implemented,” Ms. Shields said. “A Class program will only be implemented if it is fiscally solvent, self-sustaining and consistent with the statute.”
Kansas City bishop indicted Radioactive hot spots point in reporting of abuse by priest to wider problems in Tokyo KANSAS CITY, Mo. (NY Times) — The Roman Catholic bishop of Kansas City-St. Joseph, Robert Finn, and the diocese he leads have been indicted by a county grand jury on a charge of failure to report suspected child abuse in the case of a priest who had been accused of taking lewd photographs of young girls. The indictment is the first ever of a Catholic bishop in the 25 years since the scandal over sexual abuse by priests first became public in the United States. Bishop Finn is accused of
SAYWHAT...
“
Animals are my friends and I don’t eat my friends.” —George Bernard Shaw
neglecting to report abuse that occurred as recently as last year — almost 10 years since the nation’s Catholic bishops passed a charter pledging to report suspected abusers to law enforcement authorities. The bishop has acknowledged that he knew of the existence of the photos last December but did not turn them over to the police until May. During that period Bishop Finn and the diocese had reason to suspect that the priest, the Rev. Shawn Ratigan, might subject a child to abuse, the indictment said.
TOKYO (NY Times) — Takeo Hayashida signed on with a citizens’ group to test for radiation near his son’s baseball field in Tokyo after government officials told him they had no plans to check for fallout from the devastated Fukushima Daiichi nuclear plant. Local officials said there was nothing to fear in the capital, 160 miles from the disaster zone. A patch of ground at Edogawa City Baseball Stadium in Tokyo, was found to have elevated levels of cesium. Then came the test result: the level of radioactive cesium in a patch of dirt just meters from where his 11-year-old son, Koshiro, played baseball was equal to those in some contaminated areas around Chernobyl. The patch of ground was one of more than 20 spots in and around the nation’s capital that the citizen’s group, and the respected nuclear research center they worked with, found were contaminated with potentially harmful levels of radioactive cesium.

Governor Huntsman plans to boycott Nevada debate BY LLOYD JONES THE CONWAY DAILY SUN
CONCORD — While several Republican presidential candidates are opposing Nevada moving its caucus up on the political calendar to challenge New Hampshire’s first-in-the-nation status, one — former Utah Governor Jon Huntsman — has taken things a step further. Huntsman announced yesterday he will skip Tuesday’s planned debate in Nevada, opting instead to conduct a town hall meeting in Hopkinton. “I believe if you’re gonna boycott Nevada for trying to pull a fast one, then you need to do more than just offer words, lip service,” Huntsman said by phone yesterday afternoon. “I’ve asked several other candidates to follow suit, but no one has yet to my knowledge.” Nevada is targeting a caucus date of Jan. 14, but Granite Staters want the date pushed back in order to allow New Hampshire to go with its primary on Jan 10. Yesterday, Herman Cain joined Rep. Michele Bachmann, Newt Gingrich and Rick Santorum in boycotting the caucus, but Hunstman is the first one to
boycott the debate as well. “We decided to do things the right way and that’s cancel our participation in the debate,” Huntsman said. “I firmly believe we need to do all we can to preserve a process that’s very unique in this country. New Hampshire plays that role better than anyone else. “Some of the other candidates have (rebuffed Nevada) in words,” he continued, “I’m hoping they’ll join me in doing so in deeds.” Secretary of State Bill Gardner is doing all he can to preserve the first-inthe-nation status. “While New Hampshire has had a presidential primary since 1916, and has been first since 1920, it wasn’t until 1975 that our status was put into state law,” Gardner said Wednesday. “The law now requires that our primary is seven days or more before similar elections that would challenge our traditional position. “What that law requires is that I look at the nominating events of other states where presidential candidates run, and then set our primary a week ahead of them. Since New Hampshire citizens
pay for our primary, we can hold it whenever we wish. “It is up to the candidates themselves to decide whether to campaign here. Ours is the first event where voters go into the privacy of the voting booth to

Foliage reaching peak in White Mountains
CONWAY — The state Office of Tourism and Travel Development in its weekly foliage report Oct. 12 said that foliage is reaching its peak in the White Mountains and is expected to remain at its peak here for at least another week. * Great North Woods Region: Although the foliage is a little past peak in the Great North Woods region, there are still very bright pockets of color throughout the area. Maples are still showing some beautiful reds and oranges and are scattering their leaves across lawns and rivers. Hikers will kick up ash, birch and oak
leaves along the trails. Scenic drives on routes 3, 16, 26, 110 and 145 will not disappoint leaf peepers; and with some of the leaves on the ground, the views are wide open now. * White Mountains Region: Autumn has come to life all over the White Mountains region. Interstates, secondary roads, country lanes and mountains views are all drenched in perfect fall color. Look for deep reds, bright oranges, and golden yellows along all of these roads: Routes 2, 3, 16, 49, 112, 115, and 302. Apple picking, hiking, scenic drives, covered bridges, waterfalls, hayrides and more await you.

make a choice for a candidate on the ballot. It tells the nation something about their support.” Sen. Kelly Ayotte, Rep. Charles Bass and Rep. Frank Guinta released the following statement regarding the New Hampshire primary: “We are firmly committed to protecting New Hampshire’s first-in-thenation status, and we appreciate the efforts of those campaigns that want to protect our primary. Granite State voters have a long history of picking presidents, which is a powerful incentive for campaigns to focus their efforts here. Candidates must earn the votes of New Hampshire citizens, who will take into consideration how much time the contenders spend in the state. Those who have tried to diminish the role of our primary in the past have seen their candidacies founder. “Bill Gardner has worked for decades to preserve New Hampshire’s first-inthe-nation status, and we support his efforts to protect our primary.”

Fall pond hockey program being offered to grades K-3 BY LLOYD JONES THE CONWAY DAILY SUN
CONWAY — The Conway Recreation Department, Fryeburg Rec., Ham Arena and the Mount Washington Valley Youth Hockey Association are partnering once again, to offer 3-on-3 hockey for boys and girls with a pond hockey theme, but they’ve adding a fall program as well as the annual spring session. The four-week program begins Friday, Oct. 21 and runs through Thursday, Nov. 10 from 4:15 to 5:30 p.m. This is an entry level program designed to introduce the game of hockey to boys and girls in grades kindergarten through third grade with little to no cost. The program is free for children who are residents of Conway and Albany. Children from surrounding towns are welcome; however the cost will be $20 for non-residents. Participants will be required to wear a helmet with face shield, mouth guard, elbow pads, shin guards, and gloves. All this equipment, including skates and sticks will be provided by the Ham Arena to the participants free of charge to use if needed. All equipment including sticks and skates will remain at the Ham Arena. Children are encouraged to use their own equipment if they have it. The Ham Arena playing surface will be set up to accommodate side-to-side hockey which will allow three games to be played at any one time in half hour game slots. The goal once again is to reach out to children who may have an interest in trying hockey but have been prohibited due to the cost factor.

Kennett Seniors win the Art Walker Homecoming Cup BY LLOYD JONES THE CONWAY DAILY SUN
CONWAY — The Class of 2012 are the first holders of the newly created Art Walker Homecoming Cup, but the real winners at Kennett High this past homecoming week may well be the entire student body. KHS Principal Neal Moylan told the Conway School Board Monday night that it may have been the most successful homecoming in the school’s storied history. School spirit has soared to a whole new level among the Eagles. “I have to tell you Chris King (Senior Class President), Thomas Gregston (Student Body President) and the entire Student Council did just an incredible job all week long. Our school spirit is at a level no one has ever seen before.” The Kennett Seniors finished first followed by the Sophomores, Juniors and Freshmen. King, who serves as the student representative to the school board, was also on hand Monday night, proudly displaying the Art Walker Cup which was created in memory of the late educator who was also a huge Kennett supporter. “Art was 85 and went to everything,” King said. “He represents the spirit of Kennett and we wanted to make this trophy a lasting tribute. Each year, the class with the most points at the end of the week will get their class engraved on the Art Walker Homecoming Cup. “In recent years it seemed like school spirit had declined,” he continued. “It’s amazing how one good homecoming dosage can cure all that.” All week long the prior week, sthe seniors, juniors, sophomores and freshmen classes competed against each other for points. Those points were added and Saturday a champion — the Senior Class — got not only bragging rights, but the prize, the cup. Among the homecoming highlights was the return of a parade. The school held its first parade since the school opened its new doors five years ago and one picturesque afternoon the parade filled the mile long Eagles’ Way road to the school. There were floats, and the Kennett High band and spirit and dance squads also participated. Ann Marchioni and Karen Pearson from the guidance department are parade judges along with teachers Jon and Jocelyn Judge and Jaden, their daughter, and Big Dave from Big Dave’s Bagels and Deli. The senior and junior classes finished in a tie for best floats with Harry Potter and Pirates of the Caribbean, themes, respectively. “It was the best turnout,” King said. ‘I’d been seeing this vision in my mind for weeks and then seeing it come to be and being even better, it was like seeing a baby being born. It was amazing. Every float looked great.”

Another event that was a success was Oct. 6 with Movie on Millen taking center stage in the Gary Millen Stadium with the screening of “We Are Marshall” on an inflatable big screen, courtesy of Settlers’ Green, from 7:30 to 9:30 p.m. Students were able to set up blankets and have picnics. The Art Walker Concession Stand was open for the evening. “It was 33 degrees and we had 160 plus students in attendance,” King said. “I just wanted to hug every kid and thank them so much for coming.” Students also found a way to give back to their community. “October is Brest Cancer Awareness,” Gregston said the in a recent interview, “and we’d like to get everyone involved in doing our part. Laura Jensen designed these (“Kennett Eagles Support Pink Homecoming 2011”) T-shirts that we are selling very well in the school store. (Oct. 7 was) our Black and Pink Day instead of the traditional Black and White Day. The football players (wore) pink socks and wrist bands in the homecoming game that night and our hope (was) to pack the stadium with pink and black.” Summer Special: 60’x20’ $1935 Includes Everything!

In order to raise funds, which will be donated to a local cancer organization, the student council created Penny Wars. Four water cooler bottles have been set up in the school library representing each class. Every penny put into a bottle is seen as positive while other classes can put nickels, dimes and quarters into opposing class’s bottles and that amount will count as a deduction in pennies that cannot count toward the final tally. “We raised over $350 for Breast Cancer Awareness just from penny wars,” King announced Monday. “We also sold the shirts and proceeds from those sales will go to (Breast Cancer Awareness), too.” “The big issue for us with homecoming has been we really don’t have anything to go off in terms of a blueprint,” Gregston said. “The last time the school did a parade neither of us was in high school. We’ve had a big learning curve in planning. (Laughing) Every time we fixed something, two more things seemed to pop up.” “Our goal when this homecoming is over we’ll be able to show next year’s (officers) our notes, sort of like passing on the baton,” King added.

Tele-Talk
Is the bypass still needed? In town for an Eggs & Issues breakfast forum last week, Gov. John Lynch told The Conway Daily Sun that Conway residents need to decide whether there is still a need for a Route 16 bypass. “I still think there’s a need for one,” Lynch said, “but the community really needs to come together and to agree once and for all as to what that bypass should be.” There’s no funding for the project at this time, but on the drawing board are plans for three phases: a southern section around Conway Village; and central and northern sections around the North Conway Village and the Route 16 commercial strip. Most town officials think the need for a bypass has been nullified by other improvements in recent years, such as Route 16 widening and construction of North-South Road, but they are still looking at less-costly options for alleviating congestion through Conway Village. This week’s Tele-Talk: Is the bypass still needed? Call 733-5822 Saturday and Sunday and leave your comments on our machine. You may fax your responses to 356-8360 or e-mail them to news@conwaydailysun.com. Comments can also be posted on The Conway Daily Sun’s Facebook page. Results will be published Tuesday.

Off the Wall Some of the comments posted on The Conway Daily Sun’s Facebook page this past week: How important is it for New Hampshire to maintain its first-in-the-nation primary status? “I think it has historical importance only. But every state wants the limelight, so perhaps New Hampshire will have to have the primary on inauguration day to maintain it.” — Andrew Cota “In New Hampshire we practice retail politics which puts all candidates at a disadvantage, in the sense that the format is unstructured. They don’t know what they will be asked. Not only voters, but the press have an opportunity to gauge the candidate’s knowledge. We help to shape the issues. I’ve always felt that New Hampshire voters make the most informed vote of any voters in the country.” — Steve Knox
“It is extremely important. New Hampshire is the greatest state in the country. The rest of the country has no idea what they are doing and we need to continue to lead.” — Steve Tetreault “How many candidates go on to win the presidential race after winning in New Hampshire? It’s very important that we are first in the nation. How many states have presidential candidates visit their homes to speak with people? I bet per capita, we beat them all.” — Kathy Fountain Vizard “The New Hampshire presidential primary is an economic engine. As a resident it is pretty neat to get such intimate access to the candidates. Let’s keep it alive.” — Bert Weiss “It wouldn’t change how I vote and it wouldn’t change the outcome. We are not all that influential.” — Nora Smith Price

The Mitt Moment HANOVER — There are polls and there are polls. And in a Dartmouth College auditorium Tuesday night, the Republican presidential candidates indicated their selection for the front-runner in the struggle for the GOP nomination in a most unconventional, and most unmistakable, way. Just after the halfway point of the two-hour session in a hall that ordinarily is the site for a cappella torch songs and Mahler symphonies, the eight candidates were invited to address a single question to one of their rivals. It was a chance to deliver a zinger — or maybe a knockout punch. What happened was curious, and curiously revelatory. Four of them, including the two most pugnacious (Gov. Rick Perry of Texas and former House Speaker Newt Gingrich of Georgia), addressed their questions to former Gov. Mitt Romney of Massachusetts. The only other contender who was the object of more than one candidate question was pizza magnate Herman Cain, who received two. That small episode was more than a swiftly passing wrinkle in the seventh Republican debate of the 2012 campaign. It clearly showed that Romney's claim on the nomination is the strongest, and his responses — careful but convincing, flowing and fluent — served to emphasize his ascent. Then came perhaps the most revealing moment. Romney had his chance to put one of his rivals on the spot. He chose Rep. Michele Bachmann of Minnesota, who as winner of the Iowa straw poll in August became a shooting star, but one who seems to be falling rapidly in the political sky, and his question wasn't a shout or a shiv but instead a symbol of the emerging Romney way. With restraint and respect, he didn't challenge Bachmann but instead invited her to set forth more of her economic views. In a mere 10 seconds Romney did two things. He indicated that Perry and Cain weren't significant enough threats to him to bother putting them on the defensive. And in a party that once preferred a scotch-and-soda cocktail hour to a tea party, he displayed a glimpse of the — dare this word be typed about the new GOP in the new century? — chivalry that marked the party of his father and most Republican fathers of yore. Amid the rapidly changing leaves of New Hampshire's tranquil Upper Valley this week, there was no mistaking the change in the tone, timbre and tensions of the Republican Party. Hours before the Dartmouth do-si-do, Romney summoned the press corps to nearby Lebanon, N.H., but didn't use the occasion to unveil yet another policy plank. After all, his plan has 59 points, more than Woodrow Wilson (14), God (10), Harry Truman (four) or Cain (with three, squared, comprising his mind-numbing 9-9-9 chant). Instead, Romney had not a trope but a trophy — the endorsement of Gov. Chris Christie of New Jersey, late the sweetheart of a swath of swooning Republicans who want to fall in love with anyone as long as he or she isn't an already-announced candidate. This was the overture to the Mitt moment. The debate was the coda. Now the Republican race has a new clarity, and a new tone. Romney sits atop the heap, in real numbers as well as in moments that stand as metaphors.

This week's NBC News Poll taken by the Marist Institute, released hours before the debate, showed a slight Romney lead in Iowa but a decisive Romney advantage in New Hampshire, with his 44 percent more than three times bigger than his two closest rivals (Cain and Rep. Ron Paul of Texas, both at 13 percent) and seven times bigger than his putative (but increasingly less pugilistic) opponent, Perry, who in New Hampshire, if not nationally, is rapidly becoming an afterthought rather than a thoughtful alternative for a Republican morning after. But the horse race numbers tell only part of the story. Here's the rest: Romney racks up big pluralities when poll respondents are asked which candidate is closest to them on the issues (38 percent), shares their values (35 percent) and can beat President Barack Obama (48 percent). Then there's the question old-line Republicans used to ask: Who has the experience to do the job? This is a Romney landslide, with 63 percent. The change in the Republican race is palpable. The candidates once were hellions on a tear. Now they're tired and tamed, no longer cocky, surprisingly cautious. The GOP race once seemed multi-layered, like the granite outcroppings on a New Hampshire byway. Now there are only two, maybe three, striations left. Romney has the momentum and the money, Perry only the money. Team Romney expects that the Texas governor, who played only a bit part in this week's proceedings, will toss $1 million into New Hampshire, hoping that a polished media assault on Romney might do what an unpolished and unprepared debate performance has failed to do, which is to keep pace with Romney on the clubhouse turn of the run toward the nation's first primary. For a half-century, the Top of the Hop, an airy expanse perched on the campus arts center, has been a Dartmouth hub for after-class leisure, laughter and lies. Tuesday night it was filled with the saddest subspecies of homo politicus, the campaign spinners, and standing amid the carnival barkers was Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz of Florida, who heads the Democratic National Committee. "It must be very frustrating to be a Republican tonight," she said to no one in particular, and for a moment it seemed the product of yet another phase in the spin cycle. But later, in the cold air of a New Hampshire evening on a New England town green, and perhaps in the cool light of reason, the comment seemed illuminating for no other reason than that it may be an illusion. Romney remains over-prepared and overprogrammed. One, maybe two, of his rivals will have a moment in the sun, and my bet goes to Paul, who has worked the hardest and has yet to have his harvest. And it is a long way from a campus debate to a general election. But Tuesday showed that Romney's Republican opponents — and Obama — have reason to be worried, maybe very worried.

Go vegan for the planet, animals and you To the editor: It’s fair season. As entrenched in American culture as hot dogs and burgers, is the exploitation of the animals as property, animals who produce this life threatening stuff. And according to many books being published today, eating grease, fat, and cholesterol is life threatening. The great Fryeburg Fair, animal agriculture, the foundation of “civilized” economies. Really? In my view, the fair is not great. In fact, it promotes what will be the death of our earth as it, like the animals cooked, burns slowly from the number one emitter of methane, Co2, and more, animal agriculture. If the unmitigated suffering of animals doesn’t affect you, and how could it not if you have a conscience, (see www. meatvideo.com or Why I’m Vegan www.youtube.com/ watch?v=07MJImWGT-o, or meetyourmeat.com) does the slow roasting of our earth give you pause to think about adopting a plant strong life style? Reasons to go vegan: Animal agriculture is an energy intensive, water depleting industry, consuming over one third the fossil fuels and nearly half the water used in the U.S. yearly. The feeding, housing, transport, slaughter, and packaging of animal products require heavy equipment, complex machinery, and massive amounts of energy and water. The USDA calculates that it takes nearly 11 calories of fossil fuel to produce 1 calorie of meat, poultry, or fish protein. By contrast, soy, a complete protein, is 45 times more energy efficient. Water use is also extremely inefficient. Beef production alone accounts for more water use in the United StatesS than all fruit and vegetable production combined. China, India, North Africa, and the U.S.
all use freshwater for meat production faster than it can be replenished. Because of animal agriculture, we are headed for a catastrophic drinking and irrigation water shortage. Animal agriculture is the number one cause of erosion, polluting waterways and depleting soil needed for plant growth. Go Vegan—for the planet, the animals and you! A plant-based diet offers the only viable environmental solution because it consumes far fewer resources — land, food, water, and fossil fuels. Depending on the type of meat, it takes 6-17 times more land to produce meat than to produce soy. U.S. farm animals are fed enough soy and grains to feed the U.S. population five times over. Being vegetarian also saves one acre of trees a year, and soy protein requires half the water needed to produce chicken protein and 1/8 the water needed to produce beef protein. Lastly, a person who lives 70 years as a vegan will save nearly 11,000 gallons of gas and prevent over 100 tons of greenhouse gas emissions. The churches are guilty of unconscious and mindless consumption of animal products, when they should guide their congregations to eat healthy, sustainable, nonviolent foods that honor our obligation to be good stewards of creation, act with mercy and compassion, and take care of our health, none of which animal agriculture does. We all live here ... we might start acting like it. See these resources for more information: http://vegan.com/ cookbooks; http://veganfusion. com/best-rated-vegan-vegetarian-raw-food-cookbooks.

Fighting breast cancer one step at a time BY TOM EASTMAN THE CONWAY DAILY SUN
CONWAY — Is there anyone among us whose life has not been touched in some way by cancer? Sadly, the answer to that question for most of us is a resounding “no!” Walkers of all ages will salute those who have battled or are battling breast cancer when they take to the loop around Settlers’ Green Sunday morning, Oct. 16, for the American Cancer Society’s 19th annual North Conway Making Strides Against Breast Cancer Walk. It’s all part of the society’s National Breast Cancer Awareness month. Registration for the walk will open at 9 a.m. at the North Conway Staples parking lot; opening ceremonies are at 10 a.m.; and the 3.5-mile walk will begin immediately following. For more information, call local ACS community executive Kathy Metz at 356-3719 or the American Cancer Society at 1-800-227-2345. (A Jen’s Friends Pancake Breakfast will be presented by the local Masonic Lodge see WALK page 16

at its facility on Main Street North Conway prior to the walk for the benefit of that local cancer fighting organization, which serves 56 local cancer patients, including several breast cancer patients, according to vice president Wendy Holmes. Walkers are encouraged to “fuel up” at that event prior to making the walk from Staples, notes oncology nurse Roxanne Major of Memorial Hospital.) ••• According to Metz, the local community executive for the American Cancer Society, “Making Strides Against Breast Cancer” is the American Cancer Society’s premier event to raise awareness and funds to fight breast cancer. More than just the name of a walk, she said Making Strides describes the progress the society is making to help defeat this disease. The money raised is used to fund research as well as provide local programs of early detection and service to patients and their families. “This is my seventh Making Strides; it started in Boston, North
Conway and a few other communities in 1993,” said Metz, who notes that 450 walkers raised $78,500 last year alone in North Conway. She said she does not have statistics for how much the North Conway event has raised since its start locally, but she said that nationwide, Making Strides has raised $400 million since its inception, with nearly 800,000 walkers raising $60 million in 2010. ‘Bartenders for Boobs’ Twenty-five teams had registered as of Oct. 14 for this year’s North Conway walk, with Metz hoping to have a total of 500 walkers come Sunday. Returning this year is the top local fund-raising team of Bartenders for Boobs, captained by Lisa “BB” Brunelle. According to the local American Cancer Society website, Brunelle and her legion of bartenders as of Oct. 14 had raised $4,825 toward their goal of $10,000, with Brunelle — a former teacher, Mud Bowl Hall of Famer volunteer and an employee of Attitash Mountain Village — having raised $2,790 toward her individual goal of $4,000.

may be made by contacting her via e-mail at bartronbb@yahoo.com.) Both in an interview and on the American Cancer Society website, Brunelle said she gets involved in memory of her late sister and others whose lives have been impacted by cancer, especially breast cancer. “I first became involved in Making Strides in 2003,” writes the everbuoyant Brunelle. “At the time, ACS statistics claimed that one in four women would develop breast cancer. As the oldest of four sisters, the odds were against us; my sister Loree developed the disease. After hearing that teams were wanted to participate in the local Making Strides Against Breast Cancer walk, Bartenders for Boobs was formed.” As a long-time former bartender in the Mount Washington Valley, Brunelle went to her many friends in the bartending business to ask for their help. “Their reponse was wonderful! The boys at Amoskeag Beverages and Miller Lite also offered to help, providing the bartenders with T-shirts and hats. Restaurant and bar owners have shown their support over the years as well, with
drink menus, various promotions, and by allowing their bartenders to wear the Bartenders for Boobs T-shirts instead of their regular uniforms,” writes Burnelle. With the exception of one year, Bartenders for Boobs has been the top fund-raising team in Mount Washington Valley since its inception. “There are a great bunch of people involved; bartenders like Carl Farnum of the Red Parka, who puts on his T-shirt every September; Ken Derouin of the [recently closed] Up Country, wearing a bra outside his shirt, and letting his patrons stuff it with bills; Anthony and Ashley at Tuckerman’s Tavern, and Amber at Matty B’s, selling cards that hang in the bar; Billy MacFarlane of The 1785, charging a ‘buck a boob’ surcharge in his football pool — the list goes on and on — and great patrons, like Lisa BB’s Mud Bowl Family, who has tossed over $1,000 into the Tips bucket for the past several years. With the help of fellow bartenders from near and far, our patrons, friends, and families, we have raised over $50,000 to fight this dreadful disease.” see next page

Brunelle — like others interviewed for this story — notes that progress is being made. “The newest literature from ACS now claims that one in eight women will get sick; it’s not about being the top team, but every dollar counts,” notes Brunelle. “Being part of Making Strides? I feel it’s something more I can do for my sister and families like that. They talk of cancer victims all the time and as victims of cancer — cancer impacts the whole family, everybody. But you’ve got to realize the progress being made for fighting breast cancer right now in developing drugs in part from Making Strides money. If there’s one less family that has to go through what we go through — I know I am doing something positive. This is how to turn something very ugly into something very positive,” said Brunelle. “It’s really a good feeling to be with people at Making Strides (and at Mud Bowl) who are helping to raise money that is going to
help other people. There is more awareness of breast cancer now — even the NFL has been wearing pink — and you can’t help but think had there been this much awareness years ago, how many people — including my sister — would still be with us?” Go Eagles Other teams entered in Sunday’s walk include Team Kathleen, captained by Dr. Marion C. Wachnicki; Echo’s Breast Friends, headed by Elizabeth Allen; Carroll County Altrusa led by Pat Kehoe; Shaw’s Saving Second led by Deborah Scott; and Memorial Hospital, captained by Becky Adams, and a team from Kennett High. The Kennett student body has been involved in Breast Cancer Awareness month, with “Black and Pink” night held at last Friday night’s Homecoming football game, thanks to the efforts of student body president Thomas Gregston and senior class president Chris King and other students. see next page

A Walk of Hope According to Metz, Making Strides is a non-competitive event that unites the community to honor and celebrate breast cancer survivors, educate women about the importance of early detection and prevention, and raise money to fund research and support programs to further the progress against this disease. The dollars raised through Making Strides events, Metz said, are used to fund breast cancer research; provide up-to-date breast cancer information; ensure all women have access to breast cancer screening and treatments, regardless of income; and provide services that improve the quality of life for patients and their families. “What we urge everyone is: When they get diagnosed, you need to get online or to call us, even if you don’t even know what your questions are. We are a resource, and we can help, whether it’s putting people in touch with local programs or state or federal offerings,” said Metz. Like the annual Jen’s Friends Climb Against Cancer every September up Cranmore, it’s all about people walking the distance for a good cause — including survivors, family members and friends. “It’s wonderful to see everyone in the walk. I think it’s an uplifting time — it’s a coming together of breast cancer patients and survivors,” said Roxanne Major, a certified oncology nurse at Memorial Hospital who works with nurse social worker Ruth Ann Fabrizio to host the hospital’s monthly Journey of Hope cancer support group. That
group meets the first Tuesday of every month at 7 p.m. at the hospital’s Sun Room. She stressed that treatment has come a long way over the past 20 years, not only for breast cancer, but for all cancers. “Of course,” said Major, “every case is different. But there have been so many changes since I started doing oncology nursing in 1995 ... There are now targeted therapies, new regimens. Cancer used to be a death sentence — now it is more like a chronic disease. We get a lot of cures.” Survivor of 21 years Among the the board members who are helping out with Sunday’s 3.5-mile walk is oncology nurse Ellen Andreano, who is in charge of the event’s food and beverage, but who still hopes to find the time to make at least one lap. “I’m a [breast] cancer survivor myself of 21 years,” said Andreano, who moved to the valley four years ago from Connecticut. An oncology nurse for 16 years, she said the support that builds up around patients and their families is remarkable. She saluted the work of the American Cancer Society and the oncology department at Memorial. “Roxanne Major started our oncology department 14 years ago. It has gone from one room to a clinic, with many of the treatments that the larger hospitals do, but on a very personal basis. People are not a number — when they walk in they are part of a family. It’s not morbid — it’s very joyful, and there’s a lot of laughter, especially among the patients themselves,” said Andreano. see WALK page 21

Janice Crawford: Making a difference with sales of Heroes of Hope calendars BY TOM EASTMAN THE CONWAY DAILY SUN
CONWAY — Two-time breast cancer survivor Janice Crawford, who is the executive director of the Mount Washington Valley Chamber of Commerce, will be out of town this weekend and will therefore miss the Making Strides event — but her efforts to assist others battling breast cancer are tireless. She is currently selling the 20112012 Heroes of Hope Breast Cancer Research Calendars, which offer stories of “strength, courage and survival.” Proceeds from the sale of the calendar benefit three organizations: • breastcancerstories.org, a resource founded in 2005 as a way for patients
to share medical updates with family and friends. • The Shirley Rae Walker Moon Fund, a non-profit fund started by Janice Crawford’s mother who donated $5,000 to start the fund in honor of her daughter. The fund provides preventative cancer screenings to women in need at the White Mountain Community Health Center (www. whitemountainhealth.org). • Jen’s Friends Cancer Foundation (www.jensfriends.org), a local non-profit that provides support for patients and their families in Mount Washington Valley. The calendar is supported by Walkers for Knockers of the Seacoast; Seacoast Harley-Davidson; photographer Cynthia August; and fashion designer/ stylist Lisa Cantalupo. see next page

How many women get breast cancer? BY TOM EASTMAN THE CONWAY DAILY SUN
ATLANTA, Georgia — The American Cancer Society’s most recent estimates for breast cancer in the United States are for 2011: • About 230,480 new cases of invasive breast cancer in women. • About 57,650 new cases of carcinoma in situ (CIS) will be
found (CIS is non-invasive and is the earliest form of breast cancer). • About 39,520 deaths from breast cancer (women). Breast cancer is the most common cancer among women in the United States, other than skin cancer. It is the second leading cause of cancer death in women, after lung cancer. The chance of a woman having
invasive breast cancer some time during her life is a little less 1 in 8. The chance of dying from breast cancer is about 1 in 35. Breast cancer death rates have been going down. This is probably the result of finding the cancer earlier and better treatment. Right now there are more than 2½ million breast cancer survivors in the United States.
be such a lone soldier — that she needed to fight, certainly, but that it was OK to accept the help and support of friends, many of whom she salutes on her calendar page (October 2012). On the calendar page, she shares her story: “My name is Janice Moon Crawford, mother to a daughter, sister to one sister, friend to many and executive director of the MWVCC in North Conway. As a two-time breast cancer survivor, mammograms saved my life twice. Thanks, Mom! “The first time I went through the treatment, I was bullish about doing it on my own. Up at 5 a.m. every day (except weekends) for six weeks, drive 60 miles to Portland for radiation and then 90 minutes to North Conway to be at my desk by 9 a.m. Second time around, I realized it was time to let go. Thirty-one different women with their own sto-
ries of courage transported me to Portland with a picnic for the ride and a pillow for sleeping on the way home. A sense of humor and the power of women got me through. Enjoy all the love and care folks want to give you.” She added that by accepting those gifts, it “helps [friends and family] heal as well.” One impact of getting cancer is assessing your legacy, Crawford said in an interview this week. “I am sure many of us have gone through the process of thinking about what if these treatments don’t work and it comes back,” said Crawford. “You spend more time thinking of how you will handle that message, and what kind of role model you can be for others.” For more information about the calendars, contact Crawford at the chamber at janice@mtwashingtonvalley.org or call 356-5701, ext. 303.

As for the lessons her experiences have taught her, Crawford said she encourages all women to “be in touch with their bodies, to be in tune with their health; to get a mammogram.” “There have been great strides in the research for breast cancer — not that there isn’t plenty more to do,” said Crawford.

When she was diagnosed with breast cancer 21 years ago, she was told the bad news over the phone. She remembers crying for a very long time. “It is a very surreal moment when you get that diagnosis, let alone to get it by phone. People get told this, and it’s always tough,” said Andreano. “Society still has a horrible stigma about cancer. But people live years — it turns into a chronic disease.” She agreed there very much are survival stories with breast cancer patients thanks to research advancements. “A lot of the money [from the Strides] goes to research. There was a woman speaker at the Strides summit in Concord I heard, who said she was alive today and celebrating life today because of the advancement and the treatment that allowed her to be there with her family because of the strides we have made in the treament of breast cancer. So that’s important for people to hear.” said Andreano.

While many waited experience--when unusual beauty and
physical effort combine in alchemy. Over the week, I crammed in a few experiences. Each was very different (one had very little physical effort). Here are some offerings. It was already almost noon on a day that was warm and blustery, and perfect for a fall hike. Despite the late hour, I decided to head out on a long hike. I packed a headlamp. I drove out the Kancamagus Highway and eventually pulled into the Downes Brook Trail parking lot. I headed up the 4.9 mile Downes Brook Trail, thinking of
possibly combining that with the Kate Sleeper Trail, the Mount Tripyramid Trail and the Sabbaday Brook Trail for a thirteen and a half mile hike, plus a short road walk back to my car. The first three river crossings on the trail were delightful, and, combined with the foliage, created a wonderful passage. I moved up the gentle terrain. I paused at a point where a brook descended steeply from the east and crossed the trail. I knew that this see HKING page 26
Country Ecology: Maple fall colors DAVID EASTMAN
Towards the end of summer, many clients on my nature hikes used to wonder why some of the maples were already coloring up by the end of August. They would surmise fall being quite early, and worry what was going on climatically. Driving through the notches and other scenic areas that abound in the White Mountains, they might also notice some trees already changing along the roadsides and in
wetlands. Was something wrong? I answered that this always happens, and actually reflects that those particular trees are reacting to stress. Not the kind we experience in our human lives, but more to do with the growing conditions existing for that specific site. For instance, if a sugar maple is getting a good dosing of road salt during winter snow plowing, it will start turning gold and orange in

its canopy long before other trees near it. Sugar maples are delicate to any pollutants reaching their roots, and so in this manner, are demonstrating what is not healthy for them. When one sees the red maples in our swamps and along bog edges turning red by early September, it reveals that they are growing in marginal conditions. This makes them give up their chlorophyll production early. Winey-

red colors are observed weeks before the rest of the forest changes, and show that the ubiquitous red maple trees have attempted colonization of these wetlands far beyond which suitable conditions will permit. Red maples try to grow everywhere, and the widespread species will attempt to exist on any hummocky bit of soil out in swampy terrain if it can. see next page

Another factor that makes life harsher in wetlands is that they experience cold air drainage. Cooler air drifts downslope from forested uplands, and settles in pockets where swamps and bogs exist, and this makes these damp regimes’ conditions tougher on native plantlife right there than elsewhere. Our colonial Yankee forebears built their farms mid-slope, knowing that this beat early frosts and extended the growing season for them somewhat. So the tough red maples wind up co-existing with hydrophilic species that go all the way to the Canadian Arctic, with their ability to endure moist, cold, acidic conditions as well as shorter growing seasons. Sugar maple is a far more delicate tree, despite its other name being “rock maple” for its strong, hard wood making superb furniture material for colonial era style bureaus, hutches, chairs, and tables. If you ever can get a hold of an old butcher block military mess hall table, you have something. This tree species can grow for centuries, and its solid appearance is a statement for Vermont and New Hampshire farmsteads in many glorious calendar shots. It was planted out front of Georgian colonials for commemorative occasions such as weddings and births, and is part of our culture. But it is the “oyster” of the northern woods, being susceptible to air pollution, road salt, and now arsenic from old graves where it was planted along a cemetery’s stone walls. The embalming fluid is moving through the soil from old caskets, and becoming part of the capillary system of the ancient trees. Tapping these gray barked monarchs has become an unwise move. Along with my magnificent trees being overtapped in the past along Bryant Road in Tamworth, these particular trees are only producing uniform yellow foliage during our colorful

fall season due to having the Anthracnose fungus infecting these yard shade trees. My large sugar maples color up early, with their leaves turning yellow and brittle, and falling prematurely. Other landowners’ large sugar bush trees are becoming gloriously orange and gold, and some even scarlet — as is customary during our celebrated New England fall. Unfortunately my beautiful trees afflicted with the Anthracnose fungus show black spots on their leaves During the late days of summer, I was watching for the normally green hardwood leaves beginning to look brown, black, or even scorched. The Anthracnose fungus is a leaf blight caused by tiny fungi. These are so small that they can only be seen under a microscope. Forest experts agree that the Anthracnose affliction does not cause lasting harm to our beloved sugar maples, but they do agree that the foliage looks bad in this brittle discoloration. Elsewhere, if the fungus is not so prevalent, less of it can make for the brilliant fall foliage season we hope for each year. The national forest throughout White Mountains is usually great for leaf peepers, cruising through the notches and along the Kanc to regard our annual fall spectacle. There are treatments for yard shade trees suffering from the Anthracnose fungus, which involves several sprayings over the growing season, beginning in the spring. High pressure spray equipment would be needed for large tree applications, and this typically requires the hiring of a professional tree care service.

brook was the start of a trail that was long out of use, and that climbed very steeply up the brook and eventually to the top of a nearby peak. Slowly, my focus shifted from a long tedious hike, to a fun scramble up this old, out of use trail. At that point, gauging my energy, I knew it was much too late for my original plan anyway. I turned left, and headed up the brook, sometimes finding the old trail, and often loosing it. As I climbed up smooth ledges next to the brook, views of mountains to the west opened up, framed by nearby foliage. Eventually, I took the wrong upward fork in the brook, lost the trail, and the terrain became too steep to continue. I sat next to a beautiful pool at the base of a long cascade, and had a late lunch. Then I turned around. The beautiful walk down the ledges of the brook, and then the long walk and river crossings on the main trail back to my car, were magical. The continuing unexpected chain of events has opened a window of beauty and possibility. I had found what I was looking for. Later while driving home, the experience was relegated to the past. A few mornings later, an acquaintance called. He owned a plane. He wanted to know if I would like get out for a foliage flight over the mountains, before rain arrived the next day. I jumped at the chance. I met him at the Eastern Slope Airport in Fryeburg at 10 a.m. In no time, we were up in the air and heading west (he has a fast plane, averaging 200 mph). We did a loop over the Ossipee Range and headed north. The wide south face of Sandwich Dome was bright red. Passing over Waterville and the Pemigewassett Wilderness, we turned towards Mount Washington, enjoying the carpet of color below us along the way. After a loop over the summit, my friend said “Where next?” Looking north, it was easy to see the twin peaks of the Percy

Peaks in Stark. That was my answer. We headed north. Soon the bare granite summits of North and South Percy were beneath us. And just to the north, were the four combined mountain ridges where the Granite Reliable Wind Project was being built. We flew north and looped back, flying next to the wind towers. Here was a little bit of the future of New Hampshire (another string of wind towers was just visible, up near Andover, Maine). Hopefully, small scale green energy will eventually dominate over installations like this, which whittle away at limited habitat for endangered species like the pine martin, and alpine conifer forests threatened by global warming. Also, sending the electricity from such installations to the highest

the highway. But, as for foliage, there is nothing like witnessing the slow descending dance of a red maple leaf through the same air that you are breathing, then picking it up. The rain began the next day. I took a short hike in the rain. Countless red maple leaves shone on the track. The sound of a growing brook reached me through the trees on a dark hemlock slope. I reached a small fog laden pond, where the colors of red mountain ash jumped out from the dark shore. Then I turned around. By taking a hike that day, I had aspired to basic goodness through direct experience in nature. On the walk back down to my car, I knew that I had achieved it. I looked forward to a warm shower and dinner earned.
Booked for a private function Saturday night! Join us instead for…

bidder far south does something to New Hampshire dignity. We flew south to Berlin and witnessed the changes there, flying directly over the two prisons, and the last building remaining of the original Brown Paper. Further south, the colorful Wild River valley and the Cold River valley were two of the most pleasantly scenic places we saw on the flight. Then we were back in Fryeburg. I had to get out for a walk after the flight and reconnect with the natural world that I knew. There is nothing like viewing the mountains from an airplane, and being free to move swiftly from one valley to another. Also it is important to see places that industry has changed dramatically, and tends to hide from the public on

Anglican bishop ordains two priests, welcomes new parish The Most Reverend Brian R. Marsh, Bishop Ordinary of the Diocese of the Northeast, Anglican Church in America (ACA) has ordained two new priests who will serve in the diocese and has welcomed a new parish into the church. The bishop ordained the Rev. Mr. Arthur Bennett and the Rev. Mr. Dale Bove to the sacred priesthood at a special service at Trinity Anglican Cathedral in Rochester,
N.H. on Oct. 1. At the Synod held prior to the ordination, he formally admitted and welcomed St. Augustine’s Anglican Church in Elizabeth, N.J. into the Diocese. Fr. Bennett was born in Washington DC and is a veteran of the United States Air Force and a former policeman. Since 2005, he served as a deacon at Good Shepard Parish in Charlestown, and served as a police chaplain on call in that community. He will

DAILY CROSSWORD TRIBUNE MEDIA SERVICES

DILBERT
by Scott Adams
By Holiday Mathis SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You won’t be sure if someone is being aggressive with you or is simply angry with the world. Either way, the best thing is to leave the hot heads behind as you steer toward tranquil horizons. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Loved ones may inconvenience you, but you are happy for the opportunity to demonstrate your loyal and abiding affection. It’s nice, after all, to be needed. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). A bit of nostalgia calls you back and makes it difficult to let go of old stuff, even when you’re absolutely sure you have no use for it in your current incarnation. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Are you seeing romance or opportunity where it doesn’t exist? If so, pat yourself on the back. Not seeing it will ensure that it never exists. With your way, there will always be possibility. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You understand the many ways in which you are tremendously fortunate. As you get this at a very deep level, you’ll create the kind of good fortune that few experience in this lifetime. TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Oct. 15). You’re a supernova. The next six weeks show you taking risks to move your life in a new direction. You’ already will be passionate about a project when a partner adds fuel to your fire in November. Family and special friendships end the year on a sweet note. There’s a fun plot twist in your professional life in February. Taurus and Gemini people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 6, 25, 41, 3 and 40.
Get Fuzzy
ARIES (March 21-April 19). Your chances of achieving one of your ambitions before the month is over are quite good. Much depends on the work you do today and your ability to repeat this work more or less daily. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You know what you want. Even when you think you don’t know, you realize that you’re just momentarily afraid to say it out loud or admit it to yourself. Boldly remind yourself now of what you already know. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). “What if?” isn’t always a good question to ask yourself. One upsetting question leads to another, e.g., “What if I said the wrong thing?” Behave as though there are no “ifs.” Be certain in your course. CANCER (June 22-July 22). Expectation will play a role in your success. That’s why it’s important to imagine a happy outcome before you even begin a project. When the time comes, you’ll create what you imagined. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). The winds of change will be more forceful than usual, so stay flexible. The more pliant you are the better you’ll handle all the excitement. The branch that bends won’t break. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You don’t know the possibilities unless you push past what everyone else is doing. Your charming, sly smile makes it easier for you to do this. You won’t believe what you can get away with! LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You feel inclined to favor fantasy over reality, and who could blame you? Your imagination is absolutely splendid. There’s a fine line between delusion and brilliance.

THE CONWAY DAILY SUN, Saturday, October 15, 2011— Page 31
Today is Saturday, Oct. 15, the 288th day of 2011. There are 77 days left in the year. Today’s Highlight in History: On Oct. 15, 1951, the classic situation comedy “I Love Lucy” premiered on CBS with the episode “The Girls Want to Go to the Nightclub.” On this date: In 1858, the seventh and final debate between senatorial candidates Abraham Lincoln and Stephen Douglas took place in Alton, Ill. In 1860, 11-year-old Grace Bedell of Westfield, N.Y., wrote a letter to presidential candidate Abraham Lincoln, suggesting he could improve his appearance by growing a beard. In 1917, Dutch Dancer Mata Hari, convicted of spying for the Germans, was executed by a French firing squad outside Paris. In 1928, the German dirigible Graf Zeppelin landed in Lakehurst, N.J., completing its first commercial flight across the Atlantic. In 1945, the former premier of Vichy France, Pierre Laval, was executed for treason. In 1946, Nazi war criminal Hermann Goering (GEH’-reeng) fatally poisoned himself hours before he was to have been executed. In 1964, it was announced that Soviet leader Nikita S. Khrushchev (KROOSH’chef) had been removed from office. In 1969, peace demonstrators staged activities across the country as part of a “moratorium” against the Vietnam War. In 1976, in the first debate of its kind between vice-presidential nominees, Democrat Walter F. Mondale and Republican Bob Dole faced off in Houston. In 1991, despite sexual harassment allegations by Anita Hill, the Senate narrowly confirmed the nomination of Clarence Thomas to the Supreme Court, 52-48. One year ago: The Obama administration reported that the federal deficit had hit a near-record $1.3 trillion for the just-completed budget year. Today’s Birthdays: Singer Barry McGuire is 76. Actress Linda Lavin is 74. Rock musician Don Stevenson (Moby Grape) is 69. Actress-director Penny Marshall is 68. Baseball Hall of Famer Jim Palmer is 66. Singer-musician Richard Carpenter is 65. Actor Victor Banerjee is 65. Tennis player Roscoe Tanner is 60. Singer Tito Jackson is 58. Actor-comedian Larry Miller is 58. Actor Jere Burns is 57. Actress Tanya Roberts is 56. Movie director Mira Nair is 54. Chef Emeril Lagasse is 52. Rock musician Mark Reznicek is 49. Singer Eric Benet is 45. Actress Vanessa Marcil is 43. Actor Dominic West is 42. Actor Chris Olivero is 32. Christian singer-actress Jaci Velasquez is 32. Rhythm-and-blues singer Keyshia Cole is 30. Tennis player Elena Dementieva is 30. Actor Vincent Martella is 19.

DIVORCE FORCES BEST FRIENDS TO DIVIDE THEIR LOYALTIES
DEAR ABBY: Our dearest friends’ marriage fell apart four years ago. No one had a clue they were having problems, and we were devastated. We were like family and did everything together. Our oldest children grew up as “siblings” and still remain the closest of friends. “Dorothy” remains deeply in love with “Dan.” Dan has just announced he’s being remarried. We have remained close to Dorothy (we’re still neighbors), but we are also friendly with Dan. Dorothy doesn’t know we’re on good terms with her ex, nor is she aware that he has invited us to his wedding. Dan was never mean to her; he gave her everything in the divorce and continues to be a devoted father to their children. An added note: His children appear to like the new woman in their father’s life. Dorothy just heard about the wedding and doesn’t think any of her friends should go. We love them both and feel torn. Dorothy is in counseling and I’m hoping it will help her move on. I don’t want to hurt my friend, but I also want to be supportive of Dan. Do you think we should attend? -- CONFLICTED IN NEW YORK DEAR CONFLICTED: When Dorothy’s children attend their father’s wedding, it will be only a short time before Dorothy finds out who was there. While your reason for wanting to attend is perfectly logical, Dorothy isn’t thinking rationally and will probably feel abandoned all over again. If you’re willing to put up with the drama that’s sure to follow, attend the wedding -- and here’s how the rest of the scenario will play out: You will continue to be friendly with Dan and his new wife and socialize with them -- and Dorothy will cut herself off and feel even more isolated, alone and an-
gry. You have described someone who NEEDS the counseling she’s receiving, and I sincerely hope it works for her. DEAR ABBY: Every weekend when I do laundry -- a chore I HATE -- my husband has left paper, coins, cigarette lighters, etc. in the pockets of his clothing. Sometimes the items end up getting destroyed in the washing machine. Then he gets upset with me because more than once important papers have been ruined. He says that since I’m doing the laundry I should check the pockets and remove all items before washing the clothes. I say that because I take the time to do the laundry, he should remove the items himself. Abby, who is right? -- POCKETS FULL OF TROUBLE DEAR POCKETS: You’re both right. He should check his pockets before putting his clothes into the hamper, and you should make sure there’s nothing in them before putting them into the machine. And because marriage is a partnership, how about sharing the chore of doing the laundry by alternating each week (or month)? DEAR ABBY: Could you settle a driving disagreement I’m having with my girlfriend? When you are in traffic behind someone who has stopped and is turning left, should you also put on your turn signal to let the drivers behind you know someone is turning? I say no because you are not the one who is turning. My girlfriend says yes, so people know why the traffic has stopped. -- NOT THE ONE TURNING DEAR NOT THE ONE: Your girlfriend is well-meaning, but mistaken. You should use your turn indicator when you are making a left turn. It is not up to you -- or your girlfriend -- to let people know why someone up ahead has stopped, nor are you expected to.

Potluck dinner at Tin Mountain Oct. 21 The selectmen’s office will be closed Monday, Oct. 17, through Friday, Oct. 21, as Kathy will be attending a conference. There will be no selectmen’s meeting as a result. At the last selectmen’s meeting they considered the safety of the gate at the end of Moat View Drive. The gate, when used, is locked and no one on the board knows who has the key. Should there be an emergency, the chain must be cut. If you can help the selectmen with the answer as to who has the key, get in touch with the office. Don’t forget the turkey dinner is Oct. 29. Kathy has purchased the turkeys and is ready to cook. At the Oct. 5 meeting the selectmen agreed to keeping the speed limit on Bald Hill Road at 35 mph although people do often drive too fast at the blind turns. Selectman Jack Rose suggested striping the middle of the road to help with the problem of drifting onto the opposite lane. Also at the meeting, the selectmen accepted with regrets the resignation of Sam Farrington from the planning board. However, they did agree to continue Sam as an alternate member of the zoning board of adjustment. Tin Mountain: Today at 1 p.m. Carol Felice will speak about medicinal native plants.

‘It’s not About the Hike’ discussion is on Oct. 17 In the spirit of Following Atticus by Tom Ryan, the 2011 One Book One Valley choice, the Friends of the Conway Public Library present Nancy Sporborg and Pat Piper, authors of It’s Not About the Hike (Bauhan Publishing 2009). The program starts at 6:30 p.m. on Monday, Oct. 17. Both books share the theme of the transformative power of hiking, but Sporberg and Piper express their approach best in their own words. “We are two 50-plusyear-old women who started walking the sidewalks of Keene and ended up climbing the 67 4,000-footers in New England. We thought we were just going out for a hike when we climbed our first mountain. We were wrong. We were beginning the journey of a lifetime. We have reached the summits of over 190 mountains since 2006, hiking through all four seasons…. But it's not about the numbers. It's about who we are becoming as we hike…discovering the strong courageous determined joyful women inside. ...We are ordinary women on an extraordinary journey. Hiking has taught us that much of life's joy comes from sharing the experience. So we have put together a presentation about our journey…We all have our own mountains to climb. If we can do this, you can do this too. Our hope is that our journey might inspire others to climb their mountain, bringing more blessings into the world.” The program is free and open to the public, thanks to the Friends of the Library. ‘Following Atticus’ discussion open to all The Conway Public Library’s Morning Book Group meets to discuss Tom Ryan’s "Following Atticus" on Monday, Oct. 17 at 10:15 a.m. Ryan’s book is the choice for One Book One Valley 2011.

Local residents ride and volunteer for ALS awareness
This summer, Team 270-4-ML joined roughly 300 men and women, from all over the country, to cycle and volunteer in the ninth annual Tri-State Trek. Team 270-4-ML and the other Trek cyclists raised money and awareness for ALS (Lou Gehrig’s disease), the neurodegenerative disease that affects more than 5,000 Americans each year. Team 270-4-ML, comprised of 44 riders and volunteers from New Hampshire, Pennsylvania, Connecticut, and Maine, was captained by Lindsay Watkins of Jackson, who lost her mother, Mary Lou, to ALS in January of this year. This was the team’s second time participating in the event and they dedicated 270 miles and all three days in memory of Mary Lou. The team has raised nearly $45,000 in two years with the Trek. In addition to many individual donors, the team was supported this year by Crooker Cycle Sports and Mr. Auto of Berlin, Ben and Jerry’s of North Conway, and New England Document Systems of Manchester. The event has raised about $500,000 for ALS research, with donations still pouring in, and cyclists spread awareness in the communities they rode through with their More Cowbell campaign. More Cowbell, the Trek’s call to arms since 2006, is a message to let people know that they don’t need to ride a bike to be a part of the effort. The Tri-State Trek is produced by the ALS Therapy Development Institute (ALS TDI). Funds raised through the event support the research being done at the Institute, based in Cambridge, Mass. Built by and for patients today, ALS TDI is the world’s largest ALS research center and the only non-profit biotechnology company with more than 30 professional scientists focused on a single disease indication.

Young Mountaineers club begins first session today
ALBANY — Tin Mountain Conservation Center is launch a new program, Young Mountaineers, a weekly nature club for children interested in exploring the world around them and taking a closer look at the workings of natural systems. Students in grades one to three are invited to meet at Tin Mountain’s Nature Learning Center on Saturdays from 10 a.m. to noon to take part in this fun and hands-on program. The first fourweek session will begin on Oct. 15 and run through Nov. 5. Participants are encouraged to attend all four sessions. Fall is the perfect time to explore the natural environment and observe plants and animals preparing for winter, and Tin Mountain’s 140acre Rockwell Sanctuary is the perfect place for exploration. The program is strongly tied to Tin Mountain’s mission of promoting environmental appreciation through hands-on learning, so participants should expect to spend most of the course outside learning and exploring. Weekly themes range from wildlife adaptations and seasonal preparedness to ecosystem exploration and nature art. Young Mountaineers is a great way to spend time outdoors, make new friends in the valley, and increase knowledge of the natural world. For more information call 447-6991 or email nbeem@tinmountain.org. Program fee $10/session or $35 for all four sessions. Tin Mountain Conservation Center is a 501 9 c ) e non-profit environmental education organization serving the greater Mount Washington Valley for more than 30 years with the simple but powerful mission to promote an appreciation of the environment.

Play it safe, wear orange
THE CONWAY DAILY SUN, Saturday, October 15, 2011— Page 43
CONCORD — Hunters and other outdoor enthusiasts are encouraged to put on a bright orange article of clothing when they head afield this fall. Wearing a fluorescent orange hat, vest or jacket makes you highly visible in the woods, one of several key safety precautions for hunters, hikers and others enjoying the autumn woods. “Wearing blaze orange has definitely been shown to decrease hunting incidents across the country,” said Josh Mackay, who coordinates the Hunter Education Program at the New Hampshire Fish and Game Department. “It is important for outdoors enthusiasts generally, but especially for hunters, because the overwhelming majority of hunting-related incidents involve members of
hunting parties.” Mackay stressed that, along with wearing blaze orange, the top safety rules for hunters are controlling the muzzle of your gun at all times and positively identifying your target — and what’s beyond — 100 percent of the time. Overall, New Hampshire has an excellent record for hunter safety, largely attributable to the state’s effective hunter education programs. The average number of hunting-related incidents per year has gone down each decade since mandatory hunter education classes became required in the 1970s. The 1960s saw an average of 21.4 incidents per year in New Hampshire. Fewer incidents have occurred each decade since, with an average of 3.36 incidents
per year since 2000. Serious incidents are even rarer — only four hunting-related fatalities have occurred in the state in the last 15 years. While most hunting-related incidents do not involve nonhunters, it’s a good idea for hikers and other outdoor enthusiasts getting out to enjoy the fall woods to think safety as well, by sticking to established trails, reviewing the hikeSafe guidelines (http:// www.hikesafe.com), and wearing an article of blaze orange clothing during hunting seasons, which are already underway in the Granite State. Blaze orange pet accessories are also available. For more information on dates and details of N.H. hunting seasons, visit http://www.huntnh. com/Hunting/hunting.htm.

REAL ESTATE CORNER
HOME OF THE WEEK
Pre-purchase points to ponder BY JASON ROBIE I just had the pleasure (no, I’m serious) of helping two very good friends find and purchase their first new home. I won’t lie to you and tell you this process didn’t take the better part of two years, but it was a casual process and it was fun to see it again through a first-time home buyer’s eyes. Because they were so casual about it and were quite content with their current (now former) living conditions, we were able to do all the things that one “should” do throughout the home-shopping process. I’ll admit that we didn’t do all of these things, but a few are sprinkled in here because they just make good sense. One of the first things I noticed about my new house is I get almost no sunlight in a consistent spot throughout the day. This is the main reason I don’t keep any plants through the winter. I would have to have them on a moving table to keep pace with the arching sunlight. This is one of those things that buyers should check for with a new house. Visit the home during different times throughout the day. Warming sunlight at lunchtime might mean annoying streetlights at night. A quiet neighborhood might be turned into “rush hour” during morning or evening commuter times. A school playground might simply be too much noise for someone who works at home. If you only visit the home after business hours, you won’t be getting “the rest of the story." Although looking for something that isn’t there can be challenging, buyers should read the local papers and talk to the regional municipalities about any upcoming projects that might not only affect the enjoyment of their new home but its value. You can be sure that any new buyers in our area are aware (and asking) about the proposed power line project. This is also a good excuse to chat with the neighbors. Not only might they know about pending projects, but you can also get a feel for the area from these discussions. Are they all renters? How long have they lived there? Why are they selling? Moving? Expanding? You can also inquire about any type of association the neighborhood has whether formal or casual. An annual block party speaks volumes about the community you are buying into and their care and appreciation for each other. A home inspection is simply a no-brainer these days. Most of us can look at a sagging roof and know that something is askew, but there are dozens of hidden problems that the untrained eye cannot “see." Lead paint, radon and pest inspections are also a good idea. A good number of homes, especially in the typical first time home buyer’s price range, will have been built before 1978. If you are considering having children or already do, the lead paint test is a must. Along the lines of inspections, it is a great idea to get details on what has already been fixed. Much like with buying a used car, if the front tires have been replaced every three months, chances are there is more to the issue than an aggressive driver. If the house was painted two years ago, but the price was just $1,000, at least you know you will be dealing with repainting sooner than you thought. It is also smart to talk see ROBIE page 46
A slice of tranquility Today’s Home of the Week is a contemporary-style home on 5.2 wooded acres on Rolling Ridge Road in Bartlett.
BARTLETT — Come home to the mountains and your own private Bartlett retreat. This property is located down a private driveway on 5.2 serene wooded acres complete with a brook — just off the beaten path, and just minutes to Attitash, Bear Peak and Bretton Woods. This like-new contemporary home is one with nature. Extra large windows allow bright sunshine to pour into every room. Four spacious bedrooms with two and a half baths, the master bedroom suite and laundry are on the main level and would allow the perfect scenario for one level living, with added privacy having the addi-
tional bedrooms on the second level. The kitchen is nicely appointed with all of the necessities for today’s cooks including a partial opening to the living room and a formal dining room, perfect for entertaining. The living room is anchored by a grand brick and wood hearth with a woodstove for added ambiance. Additional living spaces include a generous loft area and a walkout lower level. Outside there is a stone walkway and a raised gazebo surrounded by a professionally landscaped see HOME page 46

ASK A BROKER
ROBIE from page 45
about the past remodeling with the current owners. They may have run into structural snags during their remodeling projects that will prevent you from moving walls or plumbing fixtures due to the layout of the home. Do your research with the paperwork. This is the more tedious and boring part of the pre-sale process for me, but one that is vitally important. Talk to the town planners about zoning and any easements, liens or other proposed changes that might be in the works. Check the past few tax bills, not just the most current. This can give you an idea of how often the town has been doing reassessments and could impact your future bills. Get copies of past utility bills if possible. These can be a great guide to help you budget the costs to heat and power your home. That big wall of windows might be great for the view, but could be brutal to your heating and cooling costs. (Ask me how I know!) Last but certainly not least is to step away from the home and immediate neighborhood and check out the surrounding area. A few blocks away could be a commercial area or a “rough” part of town. If the home is near an airport, fire station, police station, hospital or railroad, you can expect to hear the associated sounds throughout the day and night. Migrating to the other senses, if the area is close to an agricultural area, this could produce odors, dust and dirt or other unwelcome airborne visitors. On the other hand, you might just find nothing more than rows and rows of friendly neighborhoods just like yours! The most important thing is to slow down a bit and take it all in. This is a huge decision and one that you will live with (and in) for many years. It is also important to evaluate each of these conditions based on your wants and needs. Perhaps a school across the street is exactly what you wanted. Maybe that airport is just a quaint grass field that services gliders and only really runs on weekends. Each of the factors surrounding the house and the neighborhood are positive or negative, only as defined by you. Jason Robie is a staff writer for Badger Realty on Main Street in North Conway.

QUESTION: I’m 65, my wife is 62, and we owe $130,000 on our home that’s worth somewhere between $375,000 and $400,000. Our retirement money will be about $2,500 take home a month when she retires in three years. Would a reverse mortgage make sense or should we just sell the home and pay cash for something? ANSWER: With an FHA-insured "saver" reverse mortgage you likely could refinance your home at a low cost, pay off your current mortgage and have cash in the bank. In this situation you would no longer have a monthly cost for principal or interest; however, you would continue to be responsible for property taxes and insurance. When you move, sell or pass away, the property would have to be sold or refinanced to repay the debt Alternatively, you could sell the current home and move into a mortgage-free property, perhaps a smaller, more efficient home. You still would have to pay taxes (and you should get insurance coverage) but there would be no other debt against the property. Another idea is to rent the current property and move elsewhere. This puts you in the real estate business, but if rent covers the costs of ownership it can be worthwhile. Be aware that vacancies and repairs can represent major costs, depreciation can lower taxes and that if you rent for more than three years you will lose the ability to sell a prime residence and shelter as much as $500,000 in profits if married, $250,000 if single or you file separately. See a tax professional for details. If you have adult children would they be willing to provide a monthly subsidy? You could then stay in the property and they would inherit it upon your passing. Why not speak with them to see if they have any resources that could help in your situation. Speak to an attorney for specifics. © CTW Features E-mail peter@ctwfeatures.com.

Realtors say housing must remain nation's top priority We need to keep housing first on the nation’s public policy agenda, because housing and homeownership issues affect all Americans, and a housing recovery is necessary for the nation’s economic well-being. That was the message delivered recently by National Association of Realtors president Ron Phipps during the New Solutions for America’s Housing Crisis forum, where he joined a panel of experts to discuss solutions for addressing the country’s housing and economic challenges. The event was hosted by Economic Policies for the 21st Century and the Progressive Policy Institute. “As the leading advocate for homeownership, Realtors know that issues like affordable financing, natural disaster insurance, the mortgage interest deduction, and foreclosures and short sales don’t just affect people who own a home — homeownership shapes communities and strengthens the nation’s economy,” said Phipps, broker-president of Phipps Realty in Warwick, R.I. “America needs strong public policies that promote responsible, sustainable homeownership and that will help stabilize the nation’s housing market to support an economic recovery.” Phipps said that housing is not recovering at the rate it should be and called on legislators and regulators to do no harm. He said that proposed legislation and regulatory rules or changes to homeownership tax benefits need to help America out of today’s economic struggles and not further harm consumer confidence or exacerbate problems within the fragile real estate industry. Overly stringent standards and lower mortgage loan limits are preventing qualified borrowers from getting loans, and Phipps called on lenders and regulators to reduce the overcorrection in underwriting standards for mortgages. He urged support for policies that ensure qualified borrowers can obtain safe and sound mortgages in all markets at all times and encourage sound lending without high downpayment requirements. “Realtors support strong underwriting, but too-stringent standards are
curtailing the ability of creditworthy consumers from obtaining mortgages to purchase a home, and that’s impacting the recovery,” said Phipps. “Making mortgages available to creditworthy home buyers and streamlining loan modifications and short sales will help stabilize and revitalize the housing industry and reduce the rising inventory of foreclosed homes.” Phipps recommended that political and industry leaders work together to help reshape real estate and put the country back on the right track. “Our goal is to help ensure that anyone in this country who aspires to own their own home and can afford to do so is not denied the opportunity to build their future through homeownership,” Phipps said. National Association of Realtors chief economist Lawrence Yun also participated in the forum on a panel, “Homeownership, Tax Policy and Deficits.” Yun said it’s a misplaced argument to say the mortgage interest deduction is suddenly part of the deficit problem, when it’s been part of the federal tax code for nearly 100 years. “The mortgage interest deduction is vital to the stability of the American housing market and economy,” said Yun. “Now is the worst possible time to discuss changes to the tax laws, which could impair the housing market’s fragile recovery and a broader job market recovery. “Reducing or eliminating the MID is a de facto tax increase on homeowners, who already pay 80 to 90 percent of U.S. federal income tax. And middle-class families would be among the hardest hit; 65 percent of families who claim the MID earn less than $100,000 per year,” said Yun. Yun also emphasized that any changes to the MID would greatly hamper the ability of small businesses to create jobs given that housing equity is often a major source of funding. The National Association of Realtors is America’s largest trade association, representing 1.1 million members involved in all aspects of the residential and commercial real estate industries.

Government plays valuable role in homeownership, say Realtors
Making nice with the neighbors
Owning a home has had long-standing government support in the U.S. because homeownership benefits individuals and families, strengthens communities, and is integral to the nation’s economy, the National Association of Realtors said in testimony this week. President-elect Moe Veissi outlined the association’s recommendations for housing finance reform before the House Financial Services Subcommittee on International Monetary Policy and Trade. “We must be better stewards of the U.S. housing finance system if it is to thrive and effectively serve American home buyers and mortgage investors into the future,” said Veissi, broker-owner of Veissi & Associates Inc., in Miami. “Repairs to our current housing finance structure must be made, but we must be careful that changes to the system do not come at the expense of homeownership opportunities for middle- and lower income Americans.” Toward that end, National Association of Realtors supports HR 2413, the “Secondary Market Facility for Residential Mortgage Act of 2011,” introduced by Reps. Gary Miller, R-Calif., and Carolyn McCarthy, D-N.Y. “HR 2413 offers a comprehensive strategy for reforming the secondary mortgage market and gives the federal government a continued role to ensure a consistent flow of mortgage credit in all markets and all economic conditions,” said Veissi. “Moreover, it supports the use of longterm fixed-rate mortgage products.” Veissi testified that full privatization of the secondary mortgage market would all but eliminate products like the 30-year fixed-rate mortgage and that mortgage interest rates would be unnecessarily higher and unaffordable for many Americans, shutting otherwise qualified buyers out of the market. “The 30-year fixedrate mortgage is the bedrock of the U.S housing finance system, and
Most everybody knows some of the cardinal rules of being a good neighbor: Keep your yard, garage and sidewalks neat; don't trespass on a neighbor's property; and certainly don't let anyone in your household — two- or four-legged — make too much noise, especially early in the morning or late at night. What constitutes tidiness and acceptable decibel levels remain a matter of debate. And then there are thornier issues that literally sever friendly relationships. For example, those branches growing over your property line, shading your roof and serving as a trampoline for squirrels? It would be nice if your neighbors pruned them, but don't count on it. Or the party that gets a bit rowdy? Complain, and you may be labeled Scrooge. The dog next door that barks at all hours of the day? You may want prefer to have him stay indoors all day, but remember this could be the equivalent of a family member, so tread gently. And here's yet a more novel peccadillo: Your neighbors think your freshly painted facade is too similar to theirs — and imitation isn't the highest form of flattery.
“Continuing government participation in the secondary mortgage market is critical to ensuring that qualified home buyers can obtain safe and sound mortgage financing products even during market downturns.” without government support, there’s no evidence that this type of mortgage would continue to exist,” said Veissi. “Private firms’ business strategies would focus on optimizing their profits, creating mortgage products that are more aligned with the goals of their business than in the best interests of the nation’s housing policy or consumers.” Veissi said that while the size of the government’s participation in housing finance should decrease if private capital is to return to the market and function properly, the federal government must have a continued role in the secondary mortgage market to avoid losing long-term, fixed-rate mortgage products and keep borrowing costs affordable for consumers. “Continuing government participation in the secondary mortgage market is critical to ensuring that qualified home buyers can obtain safe and sound mortgage financing products even during market downturns, when private entities have historically pulled back,” Veissi said. Recent reductions to the conforming loan limits by the federal government are already having an impact on mortgage liquidity according to early data from a National Association of Realtors survey, which found that consumers who are now above the new lower conventional conforming loan limit are experiencing significantly higher interest rates and the need for substantially larger down payments. Veissi said that the housing and economic recoveries have been slow and that activities that force economic activity to be constricted further should be resisted. “For hundreds of years, this country has understood the value of homeownership because
it helps families build wealth, supports community stability and contributes to our economy. We need to make sure that future housing policies continue to reinforce our long-standing value of homeownership, for the future of our families and our country,” said Veissi. The National Association of Realtors is America’s largest trade association, representing 1.1 million members involved in all aspects of the residential and commercial real estate industries.

So, what can you do? Start by building a good relationship. Pauline Panza, a saleswoman with Keller Williams Realty NJ Metro Group in Montclair, N.J., suggests introducing yourself when new neighbors move in and extending a helping hand to feed a neighbor's cat or pick up mail if you know they're going away, she says. Cindy Royall Libonati, with Ewing & Associates Sotheby International in Calabasas, Calif., suggests, "If you notice anyone struggling financially or because of health, bring over a meal. Or if someone's elderly and can't move their trash can, do it for them," she says. In her Woodland Hills neighborhood, neighbors developed a tradition of sharing Bloody Mary's on New Year's morning. Times of trouble require additional care, as Rob and Melinda DeRocker experienced when a lost cat went high up in their maple tree in Tarrytown, N.Y. "All our attempts to coax it down met with it going 60 feet high in the air. Friends came over with a ladder," says Rob. After Day 4, the DeRockers sent out a picture by e-mail to neighbors and posted it on Facebook, and someone else alerted a local newspasee NEIGHBORS page 50

per. Finally, the DeRockers received an e-mail from the owners who lived a half-mile away in an adjacent town that the cat was their missing Fluffy. Fluffy soon came down but ran off, though the owners' dog located him. "We were happy to see the cat reunited with its distressed owners, and we ended up making new acquaintances" Rob says. But when disputes arise, the best strategy is to try to resolve them face to face, since people generally are friendlier and less confrontational than in letters or emails, says Los Angeles real-estate attorney Zachary D. Schorr. Etiquette guru Jacqueline Whitmore agrees. "Hostility only breeds hostility," she says. Approach your neighbors when they're most likely to listen, which means not at dinner or late at night, and engaging in a pleasant conversation that starts with a
compliment, says Whitmore, author of "Business Class: Etiquette Essentials for Success at Work" (St. Martin's Press, 2005). Sometimes, a simple headsup is sufficient. With tree limbs or barking dogs, explain you're going to check local and state laws, says Schorr. Or with the paint fiasco, it's a done deal, and Schorr thinks there's nothing to be do since no law probably was broken. "The annoyed homeowners are unreasonable," he says. The common denominator is to take the high road, since you may be neighbors for a long time. Doing so will also give you a leg-up if anything you do upsets them, Schorr says. If being nice fails, leave a paper trail with a letter and cite relevant rules, says Schorr. If you still get nowhere, talk with an official or member of your homeowners' association. "Many communities offer free mediation to avoid costly litigation," says Schorr.
Builders say pro-housing policies would help stimulate job growth While the nation may have added 103,000 new jobs in September, the employment report showed relative weakness, particularly as it relates to the residential construction sector, which remains far below its job-creation potential in the absence of policies to restore the health of the housing marketplace, according to the National Association of Home Builders. “We are seeing now what an economic recovery looks like without housing, and the picture is hardly encouraging,” said National Association of Home Builders’ chairman Bob Nielsen, a home builder from Reno, Nev. “We need to address anti-housing impediments to home builders creating jobs in countless communities across the land.” The inventory of new homes for sale is at a record low and there are many areas of the country that are approaching a housing shortage. Tight credit conditions are preventing builders from meeting this emerging demand, putting workers back on the job
and helping the economy move forward. Further exacerbating the situation is today’s pervasive anti-housing climate in Washington, said Nielsen. “Leaders in Washington must stop scaring consumers by talking about eliminating the mortgage interest deduction, ending a federal backstop for housing and calling for a minimum 20 percent downpayment on home loans,” said Nielsen. “This is counterproductive and harms consumer confidence, the housing market and the nation’s economy.” Housing normally accounts for more than 17 percent of Gross Domestic Product and building 100 single-family homes creates 305 full-time jobs and $8.9 million in taxes and revenue for state, local and federal governments. “Getting housing back on its feet would be a shot in the arm for consumer confidence, boost job growth and lead to a long-lasting economic recovery,” said Nielsen.
