Economist urges investment in Two seek early childhood development seat on Board of Selectmen BY BARBARA TETREAULT THE BERLIN DAILY SUN
NORTH COUNTRY -- At first glance, early childhood education and economic development may not seem to have much in common. But economist Rob Grunewald argues investing in early childhood development is better in the long run than offering subsidies and tax incentives to attract companies. Speaking last week to a group of about 70 North Country educational, business, and community officials, Grunewald, said research shows children who go through early childhood development programs are more likely to graduate from high school and go on to further education and are less likely to need public assistance or end up in the criminal justice system. Grunewald, an associate economist at the Federal Reserve Bank of Minnesota, said skilled and educated workers are important in today’s economy. “This is an economy that is demanding workers with a higher level of skill and education,” he said.
Studies, he said, show that trend increasing in the future. Investing in early childhood development programs for kids across the country will help prepare the future workforce. He explained that from birth until the age of five, a child goes through tremendous growth and change. “If this period of life includes support for growth in cognition, language, motor skills, adaptive skills, and socialemotional functioning, the child is more likely to succeed in school and later contribute to society,” he wrote in a paper handed out at the meeting. Grunewald warned investing in early childhood development will cost money and the most of the return on the investment is ten to 20 years down the road. But he said various studies have estimated the return is anywhere from $7 to $20 in return for every dollar spent. “This is a very good place to spend your money,” Grunewald said. “The earlier the investment the greater the return,” he said. In contrast, he said research shows subsidies and tax see INVESTMENT page 6

Teachers wonder, why the scorn? (NY Times) — The jabs Erin Parker has heard about her job have stunned her. “Oh you pathetic teachers,” read the online comments and placards of counterdemonstrators. “You are glorified baby sitters who leave work at 3 p.m. You deserve minimum wage.” “You feel punched in the stomach,” said Ms. Parker, a high school science teacher in Madison, Wis. Ms. Parker, a secondyear teacher making $36,000, fears that under the proposed legislation class sizes would rise and higher contributions to her benefits would knock her out of the middle class. “I love teaching, but I have $26,000 of student debt,” she said. “I’m 30 years old, and I can’t save up enough for a down payment” for a house. Around the country, many teachers see demands to cut their income, benefits and say in how schools are run through collective bargaining as attacks not just on their livelihoods, but on their value to society. Even in a country that is of two minds about teachers — Americans glowingly recall the ones who changed their lives, but think the job with its summers off is cushy — education experts say teachers have rarely been the targets of such scorn from politicians and voters.

TRIPOLI (NY Times) — A state of terror has seized two working class neighborhoods here that just a week ago exploded in revolt, with residents reporting constant surveillance, heavily armed checkpoints and disappearances of those involved in last week’s protest. While rebel fighters in the country’s east celebrated their defeat of an incursion on Wednesday by hundreds of Col. Muammar el-Qaddafi’s loyalists in the strategic oil
town of Brega — and fended off a number of airstrikes on Thursday in industrial areas and around the airport, one resident said — many people here in Tripoli were lying low in an effort to elude the secret police. Several people in the neighborhoods, Feshloom and Tajura, speaking on condition of anonymity for fear of the secret police, said militias loyal to Colonel Muammar el-Qaddafi are using photographs taken at last
week’s protest to track down the young men involved. “They know that there are people who have energy and who are willing to die so they pick them up,” one resident said. Several people said at least four people in the neighborhood had been killed that day, including Hisham el-Trabelsi, 19, who they said was shot in the head, and Abdel Basit Ismail, 25, hit by random gunfire while she was calling to a family member in the protest.
Federal judge issues stay on Politics seen to limit EPA in ruling against health care regulation of natural gas PENSACOLA, Fla. (NY Times) — A federal judge in Florida on Thursday issued a stay of his own ruling against the Obama health care act, allowing the law to remain fully in effect while being appealed, eventually to the Supreme Court. The Florida case is one of two in which judges have found a central provision of the law unconstitutional. But it is the only case in which a judge struck down the entire law, and suggested that implementation should halt
during an appellate process that could stretch for two years. Judge Roger Vinson of Federal District Court in Pensacola, who ruled on Jan. 31 that the entire law was invalid, issued the stay without a specific request from the Obama administration. The Justice Department, which represents the administration, had asked Judge Vinson to clarify his January ruling, which the judge had characterized as the “functional equivalent” of an injunction to suspend the law.
(NY Times) — When Congress considered whether to regulate more closely the handling of wastes from oil and gas drilling in the 1980s, it turned to the Environmental Protection Agency to research the matter. EPA researchers concluded that some of the drillers’ waste was hazardous and should be tightly controlled. But that is not what Congress heard. Some of the recommendations concerning oil and gas waste were eliminated in the final report handed to lawmakers in 1987. “It was like the science didn’t matter,” Carla Greathouse, the author of the study. “The industry was going to get what it wanted, and we were not supposed to stand in the way.” EPA officials told her, she said, that her findings were altered because of pressure from the Office of Legal Counsel of the White House under Ronald Reagan. A spokesman for the EPA declined to comment.

Officer-involved shooting In syrup game, Mother leaves Concord man dead Nature makes the rules BY PAT GROSSMITH THE UNION LEADER
CONCORD — A man was shot dead last night inside a Garvin Falls Road apartment building and authorities say the incident is being investigated as an officer-involved shooting. Barbara McNair, who lives in the building located off Manchester Street, said Wednesday night she heard a noise that sounded like someone hitting her apartment door. She opened the door to see her neighbor shot in the first floor hallway and police yelling at her to get back inside.She said she heard three or four gunshots. The man who was shot was her neighbor, she said. Police told her not
to give his name to the media. She said her neighbor was in his 30s and schizophrenic. “I think he was off his meds,” she said. “Someone should have been taking better care of him.” According to a press release issued by the Attorney General’s Office, the state police Major Crime Unit is investigating the 8:15 p.m. shooting. Investigators are withholding the victim’s name pending notification of family. The names of the officers involved in the shooting also are being withheld pending further investigation. An autopsy will be conducted within the next 24 to 48 hours. No further information will be released until the autopsy is complete, authorities said.
Ice flies off truck into car windshield MASON — A driver suffered serious injuries after ice flew off the top of a tractor-trailer and hit his car in Mason, according to state police. Stanley Raczelowski, 64, of Westford, Mass., was driving north on Route 31 when ice fell off the tractortrailer that was driving the other direction. “A very large piece of ice comes off that trailer, impacts the windshield of the car, comes through the windshield, and the driver sustained serious facial injury,” said Sgt. Paul Hunt. Raczelowski was taken by medical helicopter to a hospital in Worcester with injuries including facial fractures, a broken jaw and broken nose. Sheets of ice up to 3 feet long and 6 inches thick were found inside the car, state police said. The car traveled a short distance and appeared to hit a telephone pole on the Greenville line. Police said they don’t know if the driver of the tractor-trailer knows
what happened and they’re searching for the trucking company. They said Raczelowski believes the truck was gray or white. A passerby told police he saw a tractor-trailer truck when he was crossing the Massachusetts border and ice was coming off the top. “Ice impacts the car, and after that happens, you can hit the guardrail, you can hit another car,” Hunt said. “These companies need to and must clear the ice off their trailers.” It is illegal in New Hampshire to drive a tractor-trailer without clearing off snow and ice from the top. It is considered negligent driving. Police said they try to crack down on tractor-trailers with ice on their roofs, but they can’t be everywhere. They said they rely on the public to call them if they see ice coming off a truck, and they will try to send a trooper out to stop the truck and not let it leave until the ice is removed. —Courtesy of WMUR

There is a science to maple sugaring that’s heavy on the math. One tap drilled into a 10-inch maple should produce a good 40 quarts of sap, which boils down to one quart of syrup. A gallon of the sweet stuff sells for about $50, multiplied by the 100,000 gallons this state’s network of maple houses should produce this season, rendering a multi-million-dollar chunk of economy-boosting change. It takes sub-freezing nights and temperate days to coax the sap from the tree roots and create enough internal pressure to release the sap through strategic taps. Nature pulls the sap toward the limbs, where it will feed the burgeoning buds that eventually will bloom into leaves and, by fall, explode into fiery fall foliage. Maple farmers have done the math. They understand the science well enough to intercept enough sap to turn sweet sap into gold every year around this time. All the know-how in the world goes
right out the window if the weather doesn’t cooperate, Peter Thomson, president of the New Hampshire Maple Producers Association. “My farm, halfway up the state in Orford, hasn’t run a drop yet because of the deep snows and cold weather we’ve had,” said Thomson. Meanwhile, Hank Peterson of Peterson’s Sugarhouse in Londonderry plans to boil his first syrup of the season this weekend. “My plan was to collect today. But as soon as you think you have it all figured out, a day like today happens,” said Peterson, who discovered his 800 taps were dry by midday yesterday. He tapped his trees two weeks ago. “On a good day, we should come in at about 350 to 400 gallons of sap. So far, we haven’t hit 100 a day,” Peterson said. He’s optimistic that, by Saturday, he will have collected 800 gallons of sap — enough to fire up the boiler and get the steam pouring from the chimney. “The tourists are demanding it — we have to get going,” said Peterson, who, after 30 years in the business, doesn’t worry too much about the details.

Should be public knowledge not scrutiny To the editor: I am writing in response to Michael Bisson’s letter and the fact that the salaries of our hard working city employees being printed in the paper. It is not my intent to stir up anger in anyone only to help them understand and not harden our minds against our city‘s employees. I know the salaries are public knowledge, if you need to know them take time to look them up. We shouldn’t be observing them over morning coffee and closed minds! A win win situation. I think not. What about the people you are purposing should take a cut. They are not winning. Who are we to say who should donate their salary when they already donate classroom supplies and student incentives? How many hours a week are you basing the $52 an hour? The average teacher spends seven hours in school, attends after hour meetings, and corrects papers at home, answers parents e-mails, at home. Shouldn’t this be time for their families? Each time they do this it takes their hourly pay down a notch. Teachers are salary for a reason. As for department heads being overpaid office workers. Wow! Have you ever tried to reach one during office hours? Good luck, they are usually running themselves ragged taking care of the many duties they have each day. Maybe along side their salaries we should have posted years of ser-
vice as well as responsibilities, would make you think twice about asking why so high? Would you spend 30 plus years working somewhere without a raise? Some of these employees have remained in the district for as long as I have been alive and we honor them by asking to cap their salary? I for one have two wonderful but at the same time imperfect children in our school system. Each with their own personalities. Our educators have to take a classroom filled with up to 30 children, some with IEPs, ADHD, and ODD, and all with special needs of some sort and, teach them within their limits. They spend the day with the future of the world only to be looked upon like “only teachers”. Since when do their salaries dictate the level of respect they deserve? Children should respect them for what they do not what they make. As for a school in need of improvement, I stand by this; we are a community of teachers not just a school of teachers. We are all people in need of improvement, bound by our own faults. We need to lead by example, (myself included). When these, principals/teachers stay after school for meetings, forums, where are us parents? If you want your child’s teacher to be involved and put extra effort in, do the same. Respect their time, their methods. Take these same parents and facilities into an area with healthier demo see PUBLIC page 5

Caregiving: Caring For A Loved One With Cancer--And Yourself
When someone is told they have cancer, their life changes. The patient is not the only one affected by this life change. Those who love, care about, and care for that person with cancer will also have life changes. The caregiver plays a key role in the patient’s care. Good, reliable caregiver support is crucial to the physical and emotional well-being of people with cancer. In most cases, the primary caregiver is a spouse, partner, or an adult child. I was entrusted with this role six years ago when my husband, Don, was diagnosed with non-small cell lung cancer. The feeling that comes over you in the doctor’s office when you are given the results after a barrage of tests is indescribable. From that moment on I became a caregiver, his caregiver. Being a volunteer for the American Cancer Society for many years gave me insight and much information into the role of Don’s caregiver. Knowing that the type of cancer Don was diagnosed with was inoperable and had no cure, the doctor recommended undergoing chemo treatments in hopes that the treatments would diminish the cancer and slow down it’s progress. Together, both still in denial, we opted for chemo treatments. The treatments worked for a while but the cancer was resistant to the chemo and had metastasized, first to his optic nerve adding pressure and causing double vision. Dr. Foord prescribed new lenses with prisms for his glasses which helped to reduce the double vision tremendously. Next the cancer spread to his brain which was probably the hardest for me to realize that his cancer was progressing and quickly. I became the fulltime chauffeur because his eyesight had deteriorated where it was no longer safe for him to drive anymore. We took trips to Dartmouth Medical Center twice a week for chemo treatments. I remember vividly leaving home at 5 AM on a snowy March morning with Don and our son. Not sure how we made it to his appointment on time, I recall sitting in the chemo treatment room with our son across from him and watching while the medication was dripping into his body through
intravenous and wondering how long before the medications would affect his appetite and the loss of hair would become apparent. After several weeks of treatments, x-rays showed that the chemo was not effective so the oncologist prescribed other forms of chemotherapy. After each chemo treatment I would drive Don to AVH for a neulasta injection to hopefully rebuild his blood cells. It was not after several treatments that his loss of appetite became quite apparent. No matter how appealing I tried to make his meals the appetite just was not there. Then we had another hurdle to cross and that was when Don lost his voice and could no longer communicate verbally with us and swallowing was becoming harder with each passing day. At that point he opted not to continue treatments as the trips down to Dartmouth were too tiring for him. From that day on even as the cancer was spreading to his brain Don was still the man I had married but in a different body. The cancer had taken over parts of him, parts of him that were lost forever. At times he became confused and frustrated by what was happening to him. The next hurdle was the loss of his ability to speak. Communicating became difficult. I attached a whistle to his bed for him to use when he needed me. The den became our bedroom because the stairs were too much for him at this point. I slept in a chair in the den to be close by. Then one morning his blood pressure had dropped drastically and was running a high temperature. The visiting nurse came and ordered him to be admitted to the hospital for IV fluids. At this point there was no denying the obvious was very apparent to me that Don would not be coming home and I needed to accept this. Once the sadness and shock of having a loved one with cancer is accepted, caregivers find personal satisfaction in caring for that person. Caregiving becomes the key role in the patient’s care. As a caregiver, one has a huge influence on how the cancer patient will deal with his/her illness. Your encouragement can see CAREGIVING page 5

If the pinheads in Washintgon had listened To the editor: ‘Anything that puts limits on humanity; anything that teaches one to hate, reject, or violate another can not be of God.” Bishop John Shelby Spong According to an article by Thom Shanker which appeared in the New York Times on February 25, 2011, Defense Secretary Robert M. Gates bluntly told an audience of West Point cadets that it would be unwise for the United States to ever fight another war like Iraq or Afghanistan, and that the chances of carrying out a change of government in that fashion again were slim. Secretary Gates said, “In my opinion, any future defense secretary who advises the president to again send a big American land army into Asia or into the Middle East or Africa should ‘have his head examined’, as General MacArthur so delicately put it.” So......This is what Veterans for Peace, The War Resisters League, Military Families Speak Out, etc., have been saying for YEARS.......If the pinheads in the Department of Defense and the White House had PUBLIC from page 4

In this tough economy we are all looking for ways to do better than just getting by.

I would like to say, No I am not a teacher, though I am employed by CAREGIVING from page 4
help the cancer patient stick with a demanding treatment plan, eating healthy meals or getting enough rest. Caregiving can enrich your life with a deep sense of satisfaction and accomplishment in caring for someone. You may also discover inner strengths and abilities that you didn’t know you had. You also will find a greater sense of purpose for your own life. The person with cancer will face many new challenges. As the caregiver you can help to ease these challenges and get through problems that may come up. Caregivers are the sources of strength and security for people with cancer. You are part of a team who will help in coordinating the patient’s care. As a caregiver you are a vital health care resource. You are the one person who knows everything going on with the patient. Don’t be afraid to ask questions and take notes at doctor visits. Know the members of the health care team and how to contact them should you need to. Getting the right support and information can help both you and the patient. Caregiving for someone going through treatment can be very stressfull and exhausting. It takes a great deal of emotional, spiritual
listened to us and the millions of people who took the streets before the invasion of Iraq the nearly 6,000 US military men and women who have died in Iraq and Afghanistan, and the 100,000 or more who have been have wounded might still be with their families and friends. And the billions of dollars that the US spends yearly on guns, tanks, and weapons of mass destruction in Iraq and Afghanistan might have been spent on something worthwhile like health care, education, housing, roads, bridges, etc. Last year the US spent $160 billion in Iraq and Afghanistan. The total deficit for the 50 states last year is $130 billion. Do the arithmetic. But in the United States of Amnesia ...outside of a small circle of friends ..the dead and wounded will be soon forgotten; but surely, the families of the tens of thousands of Iraqi and Afghan men, women, and children who have been killed and wounded....the citizens of those countries that have been destroyed.....they will never forget. Reverend Gerald Oleson, O.C.F. Jefferson the city as a bus driver. My wages are public knowledge, but please don’t dispute what I do on a daily basis to earn that money. Finally I would like to thank the administrators, custodians, bus drivers, sanitary engineers, police officers, fire fighters, school cooks, civil engineers, teachers, librarians, and anyone else who is paid by this great city (you choose to live in). Keep up the good work. Renee L. Stewart Berlin and physical strength. The support of friends is key to both the person with cancer and the caregiver. Caregivers often feel tired and isolated and are less likely to reach out for help. You may not have thought much about it, but while you are helping your loved one, you must also take care of yourself. Caregiving alone for any period of time is not realistic. Reach out to others, involve them in your life and in the things you must do for yourself and loved one. Just like faith, love, support and hope helped the families of the Chilean miners through their ordeal the same is true of cancer patients and their families and loved ones. After losing a loved one, going through denial and acceptance, it’s time to heal and the healing procession could take years. The American Cancer Society is dedicated to eliminating cancer as a major health problem by saving lives, diminishing suffering, and preventing cancer through research, education, advocacy and patient services.

Petition for injunction dismissed NORTH HAVERHILL— Voters Thursday night were able to decide on the proposed teachers’ contract after a judge dismissed a petition seeking to block the vote. Judge Timothy Vaughan Thursday morning dismissed a petition for an injunction that sought to block the vote on the proposed four-year teachers’ contract for the Gorham Randolph Shelburne Cooperative School District, during a hearing held in Grafton County Superior Court. The petition, filed Monday by Gorham resident Robert Balon and supported by 29 other people, cites several perceived issues leading up to the proposed contract being included on the warrant for the annual school meeting that justify a court ruling to prevent a vote from taking place. The main basis of the petition charges that Superintendent Paul Bouquet should have removed himself from doing any type of negotiation with the teachers’ union since his wife is a teacher in the Gorham Randolph Shelburne Cooperative School District. Balon writes in the petition that Bousquet should have recused himself from the negotiations. He adds
that school board member Greg Corrigan recused himself from voting on the proposed contract and completely removed himself from the board discussions about the contract, since his wife is a teacher. Balon also charges in the petition that the G.R.S. Cooperative School Board’s vote on the contract was done illegally in a non-public session, contrary to the N.H. Right to Know Law. The proposed four-year contract was introduced after the union agreed to open up its previous contract and forgo a raise in the 2011- 2012 budget cycle, and also save an English teaching position that’s slated to be cut. Under the terms of the proposed contract, there would be no salary or scale increase during the first year. In year two, there would be a 3.65 percent increase, totaling about $74,503; in year three, there would be a 3.54 percent increase for a total of $46,058; and the final year, there would be a 4.5 percent increase for about $92,634. The teachers’ union ratified the contract and it was then brought before the school board last week. The board ratified the contract by a 5-3 vote.

Boston University N.H. Informal Caregiver Support program. Over the years I have served on many local committees, library trustee during the building of the current library building, the Cornerstone project in Berlin, planning board, selectman two terms, the Route16 / Route 2 highway planning committees and transportation representative from Gorham to North Country Council and many other volunteer boards and committees. 2. Why did you decide to run for Selectman? I believe my experience gives me the ability to make sound decisions regarding the issues facing our community. When I first ran for selectman the only promise I made was that I would do the best I could. I believe I have lived up to that promise. I also believe that I still have the energy to fulfill another term, and can bring innovative ideas to the way we provide government necessities. 3. Why do you believe you are the candidate best suited for the position? I think my experience and the contacts I have made over the years, helps me bring to the select board a unique view and other resources that can be used to the benefit of the community. In my first term I was lucky enough to learn the ropes from previous highly experienced selectmen and a long time town
Paul Robitaille
manager. I think that coupled with my lifetime spent in this valley gives me a view of what the majority of the population wants town government to do. I also believe that I have the ability to listen objectively. As I said before I do not have an agenda but only want town government to work safely efficiently, and at the lowest cost possible while providing for the security, safety and prosperity of the community. 4. What do you feel are the major issues facing Gorham, and what would you do to help solve them? Undoubtedly the major issues facing Gorham are transportation the economy and the downward shifting of costs by the current state legislature. While we have had good news regarding the re-opening of the paper mill and expect more good news from that sector there
are many other local businesses that are not doing so well. I want town government to find a way to help those businesses and to try to entice others to come here to set up shop. This is something that we cannot do alone but must do so cooperatively with the other communities in the Androscoggin valley. I still believe that transportation is another of our problems I would like to see Route 2 finished according to the ideas that the Route 2 committee presented to the governor and council and I think the Route 16 bypass of Conway is imperative for our eventual economic recovery. I also believe that rail will become more and more important as a way to ship goods and eventually passenger service as the price of gasoline rises higher and higher. Unfortunately at this time we have seen an influx of people into the state legislature who do not understand the consequences of their actions. Some of the legislation proposed in the short term to try to solve the budget crisis in Concord will have a significant impact in communities all over N.H. For instance if the state abandons its obligation to fund the public employees retirement fund those costs will be shifted to the counties and towns. It will be difficult at the best if the town of Gorham
suddenly has to pick up another 35 percent of the retirement costs. We have already seen revenue sharing disappear and there is talk of community block grants disappearing. If this does happen it will not save money but will increase costs to the communities at a much higher level, and at a time when we can least absorb it. I think these are the major problems currently facing us but I think if we try to tackle these problems without fear and work together I believe we can overcome these problems. 5. What is your favorite thing about Gorham? Undoubtedly it is the people of Gorham and the Androscoggin Valley. It is a joy to live here among the citizens of this community. A wiser man than myself once put it this way, “Gorham is the kind of place where the person yelling at you on the town meeting floor will be the first one to pull you out of the ditch the next morning.” I think this is the best way to put it. People here do have a tendency to work together and to look after each other. I think most people here are decent folk and do care about each other and their neighbors. Of course it does help to live in one of the most beautiful places on earth.

Learn about life in Berlin’s mills at White Mt. Cafe GORHAM -- The White Mountain Café and Bookstore in Gorham will present a book signing with a local author who tells the story of what life was like, working in Berlin’s fabled mills. Berlin native and author Ron Roy will be reading from his new book, Passing Time, Sunday, March 6, at 2 p.m. at the White Mountain Café and Bookstore, 212 Main Street, Gorham. Roy, a longtime Berlin native, will also sign copies of his new book and be available to visit with interested readers.
Fellow workplace author John Beck writes, “An honest and compelling coming-of-age novel set on the papermaking floor of a New England mill, Roy captures everything from safety to craftsmanship to horseplay. He nails the notion in paper mills that company profits are inversely connected to how strenuously workers are forced to labor and that the noxious fumes from a pulp mill are the ‘smell of money’. The White Mountain Café and Bookstore looks forward to welcoming this local author on his book tour.

Possible closing of Errol school will hot topic at Errol town meeting BY CLAIRE LYNCH THE BERLIN DAILY SUN
ERROL -- The continued viability of the Errol Consolidated School is coming into question this year as voters head to the polls to decide what may be the town’s first contested races for school board. Five candidates are vying for twoand three-year terms that will no doubt include discussion over the school district’s continued financial future and whether or not the school should remain open. Charlie Kurtz, a 13-year community member and co-chair to the planning board, is also running for the two-year term to, as he puts it, “open a dialogue among the townspeople as the best direction for the school and the district,” he said. “I think the school should close, but that is the town’s decision to make. At some point it becomes financial y irresponsible to pay $490,000 for us to educate such a small number of students.” But not everyone agrees, including two other candidates for the same two-year term, Katherine Gingras and Todd Smith, both of whom have young children. Norman Eames, the incumbent candidate for the three-year term, joins them in this effort. A life-long community member, Eames, is the town’s former fire chief and currently owns a small construction company. He has served on the board for 20 years, he said, but this is the first time that he has ever been contested and he faces Crystal Labrecque. Eames, Gingras, and Smith all maintain that the transportation of the students and the continued maintenance of an empty school are just as expensive as continuing to operate the school. As well, Gingras said, tuition costs must also
be considered. “So we’re fighting to keep it open,” Eames said. “I don’t want to see it closed. If we close it we loose our young people. Every town that I’ve seen that the school has closed in has gone down hill after that.” This is not the first time that this issue has come up, he explained, as the town’s demographics have changed steadily in the last 15 years. “Most are retired people that moved up from the southern New Hampshire and Massachusetts, “ he said, “not families with children.” “We are what we are and we are a town of older people,” Kurtz said. Errol Consolidated School averages less than 20 students each year, he said. While the Unincorporated Town of Millsfield has confirmed that its students will again be sent to Errol, Gingras said, the town of Magalloway, Maine, has not and may choose to send the six children from that town to Rangeley, Maine, in light of escalating tuition costs. While tuition at the school stands at about $11,000 annually, it is anticipated to go up to $14,000, a price that is 70 percent assumed by the taxpayers. According to Kurtz, it currently costs nearly $24,000 for an annual education for each student that attends Errol Consolidated School. Tuition will continue to rise each year until it reaches a 100 percent contribution by taxpayers within the next three years, he said. Bussing the students to the Milan Village School, a distance of about 20 miles, is not realistic, he said. “We need a school here in town,” said Gingras, who co-owns Bear Country Power Sports and is the mother of five-year-old Madison. “Either we have a school and pay taxes or we pay transportation and
tuition and we pay taxes.” If new families are going to move into the town to even out the demographics, she said, there needs to be a school present. Some people are under the false impression that eliminating the school will drop the district’s budget to zero, she explained, “but we still have children that need to be educated.” Smith, a federal employee of U.S. Customs and Immigration, has two small children. He is running to ensure the safety of his children, he said, as well to keep the school’s present staff in place. The retirees who dominate the community, he said, don’t have to worry about putting their children on a bus traveling through 13 Mile Woods or over Dixville Notch along Route 26. “Those are two of the nastiest roads around,” he said. “Parents should have more input because they will be the ones looking out for the best interest of the kids and not for the best interest of the tax rolls.” But he also wants to ensure that the staff that is currently working

there remains in place. “I want to make sure they [Mianca, age 3, and Koletyn, age four months] have a good education and I think they will as long as people like Sharon Lane are there,” he said. But according to Kurtz, the reduction in the number of students should be enough to at least reduce the staff. “Currently there are two teachers, one principal and one aide,” he said. “That’s a working ration that is better than a private school. The school board doesn’t even want to talk about eliminating a staff member.” Kurtz, who has two grown daughters both with Master’s degrees, said he is not against obtaining a quality education for the children. If nothing else, he got what he wanted, he said, and that was an open dialogue on the issues. “The budget meeting for the school was the best ever in attendance. So I achieved that,” he said. “They’ve got to talk about it sooner or later, it’s inevitable. Whether its tomorrow or ten years from now its going to be done.”

MANCHESTER — Junking the plan of Mayor Ted Gatsas, the Manchester school board is backing a proposed budget that spends more than the mayor wants to, limits layoffs of paraprofessionals but ends with a $2.5 million question mark. Meanwhile, a teachers’ union official said concessions on health care are off the table, and teachers are ready for layoffs if that turns out to be the case. Scott McGilvray, president of the Manchester Education Association, said teachers already agreed to four years of health-care concessions in 2009. “We’re already ahead of everyone else (in givebacks), yet they come after teachers time and time again,” said McGilvray, whose union represents 1,200 teachers. Early Tuesday morning, the school board voted on a budget proposal that eliminates the positions of 12 retiring teachers, shifts some school bureaucracies to City Hall, spends some $3 million in reserves and necessitates a 1 1/2 percent increase in property taxes. But the board couldn’t agree on layoffs, leaving a $2.5 million gap in the budget. “It will be interesting to watch them do a presentation to the aldermen,” said Gatsas, who voted against the proposal. “We have some components we haven’t come to grips with,” acknowledged school board veteran Chris Herbert of Ward 4, one of the supporters of the budget proposal. “There’s $2.5 million we have to take votes on.” Two proposals have been floated to fill the $2.5 million gap, but the board has voted against both. One would eliminate 17 posi-
tions that are currently open or are expected to be open by the end of the school year, for a savings of $687,000. The second calls for laying off 79 paraprofessionals for a savings of $2 million. The board has agreed that it will cut personnel benefits and salaries to make up for the $2.5 million gap. Meanwhile, Gatsas and Herbert can’t agree on the budget number. Gatsas said it is $155 million because it relies on reserve money. Herbert said the budget is $152 million. The budget also calls for $280,000 in technology improvements and $250,000 to improve elementary school teaching, he said. Gatsas and board members Donna Soucy, Arthur Beaudry, Debra Gagnon Langton, and David Gelinas voted against the budget. Committee member Steve Dolman was not at the meeting. Aldermen will eventually decide how much to fund the budget. The school board officially presents it to aldermen on March 15, a day after a public hearing that is mandated by the city charter. Gatsas’ $152 million budget calls for laying off 200 paraprofessionals unless teachers and others agree to health care concessions. It would necessitate a slight tax increase, a little more than a quarter of 1 percent, he said. Gatsas said it would also put 41 new teachers in the schools next year. McGilvray said he hasn’t heard from any teachers who agree with Gatsas’ concessions, which call for them to shoulder 20 percent of their premiums and increased deductibles and co-pays. Gatsas said teachers pay only 6 1/2 percent of premiums and $5 copays.

By Holiday Mathis son’s point of view. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Someone has memorized a pitch and will deliver it with great skill. That doesn’t go over too well with you, though, as you prefer that people communicate from the heart. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Your generous heart makes it easy for you to be open and encouraging, even with your competitors. Perhaps you realize that your only real competition is yourself. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You sometimes give people more credit than they deserve. But you’d rather err on the side of generosity than fail to appreciate the ones who really contribute. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You will be even more committed to enriching the lives of others than you usually are. You will notice those in need. You won’t be able to help them all at once, but you will make a difference. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Though most people put on a good face, you’ll look deeper and realize that many are hurting. This will change the way you interact. Your manner of dealing with others is both careful and kind. TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (March 4). You’ll develop the skills to conduct the relationship of your dreams. Continue to strive for stellar communication in all areas of life, and you’ll get increasingly comfortable asking for what you need. A roadblock to financial good fortune will be lifted in April. June brings an educational opportunity. You have a special connection with Cancer and Scorpio people. Your lucky numbers are: 10, 3, 22, 43 and 56.
Get Fuzzy
ARIES (March 21-April 19). You are grateful to have had the opportunity to travel and study. This has expanded your perspective in wonderful ways. And when you share your experiences with others today, their perspective will grow, as well. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You’ll focus on others and ask for their perspective on an issue. Because you’re able to get outside of yourself, you’ll broaden your circle of influence and earn the trust and respect of your peers. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Everything you do for others today is a casual choice -- no pressure. You make it easy to be your friend. You don’t want or need anything from those around you, and that’s half the battle. CANCER (June 22-July 22). You refuse to lean on others, preferring to lift them up instead. If you find that you cannot do this, then the next best thing is to lift up yourself. Your happiness will be contagious. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Your good ideas bear repeating. If you’ve shared your ideas before but didn’t get much of a response, now is the time to mention them again. In some ways, the general public is still catching up with you. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). It is not enough for you to add value to someone’s life. You want to multiply the good fortune of those around you. You’ll find a way to do this, too -- it has to do with spreading a positive message to a large number of people. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You have a talent for rising above petty concerns, and you’ll have a very good reason to use it. You’ll get outside yourself so that you can see things from another per-

CHARITY FUNDRAISERS MAY BE WALKING AWAY WITH DONATIONS
DEAR ABBY: For several years, a group of ladies at work have held fundraisers so they could participate in cancer charity walks. We have all donated willingly, but someone recently pointed out something disturbing. Every year, this group travels to a different location for the walk, using the funds they have raised for the charity. There is a walk within driving distance. The funds they raise could be donated to the cause instead of spent on flights, hotels, meals, etc. One of them commented that they “might as well get something out of it.” Are we wrong to feel this is not a good thing? Someone said we’re paying for their vacation. At this point we are confused about the whole mess. Any comments? -- BAFFLED IN NEW ENGLAND DEAR BAFFLED: You’re not wrong. Any monies raised the way these “ladies” have done should have been donated to cancer research. The comment your co-worker made to you was revealing. What you have described sounds like fraud. What those women should have “gotten out of it” was the satisfaction of knowing they were doing something for a worthy cause. This would not include treating themselves to a group vacation. If you continue to support this effort, the check(s) should be made payable to the charity. DEAR ABBY: Are there any rules of etiquette involving unwanted guests at funerals? While I have many loved ones and friends, I have also made a few enemies in my life. I have made clear to my husband that I do not want “certain people” to be allowed to attend my funeral when I die. I have always found it distasteful when folks show up at funerals for someone they disliked or didn’t know well. It ru-
ins it for those who really did love the deceased. I do not want my enemies trying to make themselves feel better by showing up and pretending they cared. My husband is against the idea. I made him promise that he’d do this for me because, even though I’ll be dead and may not care then, I do care very much now. P.S. My husband wants to know how one would keep people away from a funeral in the first place. -- PLANNIN’ AHEAD IN SODDY-DAISY, TENN. DEAR PLANNIN’: Let’s hold a good thought that you’ll be around for a long, long time and outlive your enemies. However, if that doesn’t happen, a way to ensure that only those you want to attend your funeral will be there is to make it “invitation only.” And when your death is announced in the newspaper, it should be stated that the service will be private. DEAR ABBY: I have been seeing the same gynecologist for eight years. I trust her with my health and my privacy. She recently moved to a new practice and I would like to follow her. My problem is the wife of one of my co-workers is an employee in the new office, and I’m worried that patient confidentiality may not extend to “pillow talk.” How do I handle this delicate situation? -- VALUES MY PRIVACY IN SOUTH CAROLINA DEAR VALUES: Handle it by having a frank talk with your gynecologist, explaining that one of your co-workers is married to an employee in the new office, and asking her how she plans to guarantee your privacy. Explain that you would like to remain her patient, but that this has raised a red flag for you.
