Even with a bump, Conway starting teacher salary would be one of the lowest in the state Minimum salary for starting teachers would go from $27,600 to $29,000 if voters approve contract BY LLOYD JONES THE CONWAY DAILY SUN

CONWAY — Don’t expect a giant leap in the rankings if voters move the minimum starting teacher salary to $29,000 in April with approval of the first teachers’ contract in three years.

The Conway School District, which has a minimum starting salary of $27,600, ranks 155th out of 160 districts in the Granite State according to the New Hampshire Department of Education. The district would move to 147th if the salary goes to $29,000. A jump to a $30,000 starting salary,

which was proposed in last year’s contract but failed by a mere five votes at the polls, would rank Conway 130th. In order to get to the state’s minimum starting teacher salary for 2009-10 with a BA degree of $33,120, excluding benefits, see SALARY page 8

Virtual classrooms have no teachers MIAMI (NY Times) — On the first day of her senior year at North Miami Beach Senior High School, Naomi Baptiste expected to be greeted by a teacher when she walked into her precalculus class. At Dr. Michael M. Krop Senior High School in Miami, there is no teacher in a classroom, but a “facilitator” watches the students. Chaala Womble, 17, in a virtual class at the MiamiDade school. The courses, called e-learning labs, are in 54 district schools. “All there were were computers in the class,” said Naomi, who walked into a room of confused students. Naomi is one of over 7,000 students in MiamiDade County Public Schools enrolled in a program in which core subjects are taken using computers in a classroom with no teacher. A “facilitator” is in the room to make sure students progress. That person also deals with any technical problems. These virtual classrooms, called e-learning labs, were put in place last August as a result of Florida’s Class Size Reduction Amendment, passed in 2002. The amendment limits the number of students allowed in classrooms, but not in virtual labs.

Unity government in Tunisia China’s leader has fractured by resignations TUNIS (NY Times) — Five or more ministers from opposition parties resigned from Tunisia’s unity government on Tuesday, bowing to a wave of street protests against the cabinet’s domination by members of the ousted president’s ruling party and putting mounting pressure on his prime minister, Mohammed Ghannouchi, to resign as well. As the leaders of the estab-

lished opposition parties renounced the unity government, the revolutionary passions unleashed across the region continued to reverberate, as two more men in Egypt set themselves ablaze on Tuesday and a third was stopped before he could do so. Those self-immolations followed six others, all in apparent imitation of the one that set off the Tunisian uprising a month ago.

The new unity government was showing strains practically from the moment it was sworn in on Monday, with new protests focused on its links to the former president, Zine elAbidine Ben Ali. In a radio interview on Tuesday, Mr. Ghannouchi insisted that ministers in the new government carried over from the former regime “have clean hands and great competence.”

Makeshift memorials pop up in Tucson TUCSON BEIJING (NY Times) — There are stuffed animals of all possible species and notes written by children in crayon. There are inspiring biblical verses, photographs of the departed and candles summoning a plethora of saints. The somber, sprawling memorial outside University Medical Center has become the focal point for Tucson’s grief. But it is not the only one. At the Safeway supermarket where a gunman opened fire on a group gathered to meet Representative Gabrielle Giffords on Jan. 8, outside the wounded

congresswoman’s district office, at the entrance to the school where one victim attended third grade, makeshift memorials are popping up across this shell-shocked community. “It’s 100 percent unorganized,” said Karen Mlawsky, the chief executive of University Medical Center, where crowds swelled into the hundreds Monday on the Martin Luther King’s Birthday holiday to honor the dead. “It’s been spontaneous, and it changes every day. Right now, there are 75 people on the lawn. Some of them are crying. Many have brought their children.”

message of harmony BEIJING (NY Times) — For the Obama administration, the fourday visit by President Hu Jintao of China may offer a platform to try to make progress on issues troubling their countries: currency, the trade imbalance, human rights and China’s military stance. But Mr. Hu arrives with a comparatively low-key message, intoning his favorite idea: harmony. Over the past few years, that has become a catchword of his administration, used especially often when Mr. Hu is confronted with thorny situations that elude ready solutions, like domestic social unrest or a rising China’s impact on the outside world. In China, the term is sometimes used ironically as a verb to describe Web sites that suddenly disappear, “harmonized away,” and officially as a goal, a “harmonious society.”

Storm makes for Different group plans messy commute marrow donor search BY MICHAEL CLEVELAND THE UNION LEADER

WINDHAM — A winter storm was dropping several inches of snow on New Hampshire on Tuesday before changing to a mix of sleet and freezing rain. The snow caused accidents on both sides of Interstate 93 near exits 4 and 5. On the southbound side, a multicar accident caused backups. News 9’s Ray Brewer said there were three cars on the side of the road in Londonderry at about 8:25 a.m. The accident did not appear to be serious. Another multi-vehicle accident caused backups on the northbound side. At least one car was being towed away at about 8:45 a.m. Several cars were reportedly still off the road at about 11 a.m. By noon, snow in Massachusetts had begun changing from snow to the wintry mix, and StormWatch 9 meteorologist Kevin Skarupa said that transition will move north across New Hampshire through the afternoon. While cold weather kept the snow light and fluffy in the morning, once sleet and freezing rain start falling,

the snow will become heavier and more difficult to move. Traffic moved slowly along Interstate 93 Tuesday morning. State police said dozens of cars spun off the road in the southern part of the state, but there were no serious injuries reported. “It’s pretty slippery because it’s so cold out there,” said plow truck driver Mitch Wendell. “It’s very, very slick.” Before the storm hit, Department of Transportation crews were getting ready to salt and scrape the roads. Transportation officials said they were concerned about the change from snow to rain and freezing rain, saying drivers should expect to find some slush on the roads. “We’ll probably leave a little bit of snow or mealiness stuck on the road so that we don’t have a bare road, which allows the ice to glaze over,” said Dix Bailey of the DOT. The DOT said crews will likely be out until midnight or later, and drivers should expect to take it slow during the Tuesday evening commute. —Courtesy of WMUR

Pelham man held on bail after standoff SALEM — A 72-year-old Pelham man is being held on $50,000 cash bail after an armed standoff with police over the weekend. Police said George Labonte Sr. held officers at bay while he was barricaded inside his Jones Road home for 33 hours before finally surrendering Saturday morning. The standoff started when Labonte’s wife went to the Police Department on Thursday night and said Labonte may be suicidal. When police made contact with him at his residence, Labonte threatened to kill them if they didn’t leave, police said.

Officials called in SWAT teams, and the house was surrounded for almost a day and a half. Police said they deployed “chemical agents and diversionary devices” during the standoff. Authorities said Labonte eventually surrendered at about 4:30 a.m. Saturday, when he appeared in his garage unarmed. Officials said he surrendered without incident but continued to be verbally combative. Labonte is scheduled for trial on charges of resisting arrest and criminal threatening in February. —Courtesy of WMUR

MANCHESTER — As the investigation continues into the Caitlin Raymond International Registry’s bone-marrow donor drives and billing practices, a different organization is planning its own drive and hopes the controversy won’t affect the turnout. “I would hope it doesn’t have an adverse effect, said Peter Sullivan, a Manchester attorney who is helping the Love, Hope, Strength Foundation organize a concert Jan. 29. “Most of the people involved in the field of oncology and health care are absolutely the best, most decent people you can meet. I think what we saw was an unfortunate exception rather than the rule.” The Love, Hope, Strength Foundation was founded in 2007 by Mike Peters of the Welsh rock band Alarm and James Chippendale, president of CSI Entertainment, both leukemia survivors. Several months ago, Sullivan went to an Alarm concert at the Tupelo Music Hall in Londonderry. Leader singer Mike Peters put out a call for people to sign up for a bone marrow registry. Sullivan did, and now, as a volunteer for the U.S. affiliate of the organization, he is spreading the word about a concert to increase awareness of the need for marrow donors. “It’s a way to give back to someone whose music has always meant a lot to me,” Sullivan said Monday. The concert, at The Jam Factory, 1211 Elm St., Manchester, will feature local acts. It is scheduled for 7 p.m. on Saturday, Jan. 29. Registering as a bone marrow donor will be free at the concert, Sullivan said. The Caitlin Raymond International Registry, which billed insurers as much as $4,000 for bone marrow testing, sparked an investigation

after the state’s Consumer Protection Bureau received a “steady stream” of complaints about questionable sales pitches used during donor drives. Senior Assistant Attorney General James T. Boffetti said last week that people were “outraged and upset by the misinformation and, in some cases, just pure deceit that was involved in enticing them to be a donor.” Love, Hope, Strength Foundation Executive Director Shannon Foley, in an e-mail response to the New Hampshire Union Leader, said that the foundation has registered 9,000 people in the U.S., “resulting in almost 50 potentially life-saving matches.” “To register to become a bone marrow donor can cost anywhere from $60 to $100,” Foley said in her e-mail. “We at Love, Hope, Strength are fortunate to have partnered with the largest marrow registry in the states, known as DKMS (which) covers 100 percent of the testing fees.” On its website, DKMS describes itself as the largest bone marrow donor center in the world, with over 2.5 million registered donors. Foley said that those who register can be sure that their insurance won’t be affected because “we do not ask for insurance information.” She and Sullivan, however, both said that donations to help with costs would be welcome. In her e-mail, Foley said that LHS has hosted nearly 200 bone marrow drives at concerts, sporting and community events, something that Sullivan appreciates. “What I like about them,” he said, “is that they tend to do drives at nontraditional locations.” The Jam Factory, on its Web site, is touting the Jan. 29 concert as “excellent music for an excellent cause,” and said performers will include Slang of Ages, Vintage Gold Muse, Andy O’Brien, Chris Dembro and Mark Kopko (of American Bred).

Do you know how many bills reps submit? To the editor: I came across some information regarding the cost of doing business in our state government that took me by surprise. I tried to get the answers to my questions from our Carroll County representatives. My question was a cost of submitting a bill or an LSR. The price given was anywhere from $200 to $1,700. My concern is that no one could give me a firm answer and explain why the cost was so high. I e-mailed Gene Chandler and Betsy Patten knowing they had served a long time and would most certainly be able to provide an explanation. I am still waiting. Rep. Fleck and Rep Scala the district 5 reps did try to give me a price but they were not really sure. Rep Babson said he thought it was $1,700. If that is true do people realize how many bills our 400 reps are submitting at a

cost that high? The bills all get heard even if they do not pass and that means someone has to work on them. I have 55 pages of bills totaling 875 as of last week, when I was researching this issue. I would like an answer to my question and I would think the tax payers deserve to know how their hard earned tax dollars are being spent and on what bills they are being spent on. An example of one bill being submitted is making the color purple the state color. Now I ask you, how does that promote jobs and cut down on wasteful government spending? Go to the New Hampshire General Court and find your reps and see who is sponsoring what bills. It is an eye opener! Thank-you to the representatives who did respond to my request for information.

Attend budget hearing, school meeting To the people of Eaton: As a resident of Eaton and an elected member of the Eaton School Board, I am writing to encourage your attendance at the Eaton School District budget hearing on Feb. 7, 2011. It will be held at 6 p.m. in the Eaton Town Hall. At this time, School Board members and Superintendent Dr. Carl Nelson will be present to hear your questions and concerns regarding the 2011 proposed budget. As most of you know, we are in need of a new school bus this year as ours is more than 10 years old and beginning to need repairs as it

“shows its age.” The Eaton School District meeting on March 8, 2011 at 5 p.m. is when these warrant articles will be voted on, but the budget hearing is when your questions should be asked so that they may be answered correctly and in a timely manner. During my tenure on the board, only two or three people have ever attended this important meeting. I find it very discouraging that so few people show interest in a budget of over $650,000. Please try to attend. Judith Goss, School Board member and resident Eaton

A White Mountain Moment

Tiffany Benna

Celebrating the New Year It’s that time of year, the beginning. Surrounded by family and friends, we begin a new year remembering the past, taking stock of the present, and looking ahead to where we want to go (how many resolutions did you make?). We at the White Mountain National Forest are particularly excited to begin this New Year as we celebrate 100 years of the Weeks Law. Many of you are familiar with the tale: At the turn of the century, in the wake of a race to build a country and make profits, land was being denuded of all vegetation at alarming rate. “Cut out, get out” was the hillside cry, while forest fires burned out of control, causing floods and soils to erode and choke the rivers to a muddy brown. But not everyone was blind to the devastation. A coalition of concerned citizens — the Society for the Protection of New Hampshire Forests, Appalachian Mountain Club, businessmen, conservationists, tourism groups, ladies groups, and even artists — began to form, and with it the call to conserve these lands that no one wanted. At this time, while conservation was reaching federal lands out west through the creation of Forest Reserves (carved out of lands belonging to the public domain), the land between the Great Plains and the Atlantic Ocean was almost entirely in private ownership. This private ownership was a problem as the only way the government could establish forest reserves in the East would be to buy the land and there was no mechanism for government to do that. It was going to take an act of Congress — and it would not be an easy act to get them to take. Over 40 attempts were made within 10 years to pass a law to buy forest lands — all to no avail. But citizens persisted and found a champion that would succeed in John Wingate Weeks, a Congressman from Massachusetts. John Weeks was born in 1860 on a rugged northern farm in the hills of New Hampshire (just flip through the yellow pages of Lancaster, you’ll see). Arriving in Washington D.C. in 1905, Weeks made several attempts before finally, in June of 1910, the House passed his bill for the pro-

The Week’s Bill was passed the following February in the Senate and signed March 1, 1911 by President Taft, becoming Public Law 435. The Weeks Law enabled the purchase of forested lands and the creation of the White Mountain National Forest. During the past century, 52 national forests were created which encompass more than 25 million acres in 26 eastern states. Now 100 years later, we celebrate the restoration of our forests and rivers, the long-term conservation vision of John Weeks, and the partnership among diverse interest groups working together toward common goals on a common landscape. We know that the future holds many challenges for the Forest, for natural resources, and for conservation. We face climate changes, invasive species like the Asian Longhorn Beetle, new diseases like the White Nose Syndrome in bats, and economic hardships. Yet, working together with our partners and neighbors, we are confident that we will find new solutions to the problems we may face in the next 100 years of conservation. This New Year is going to be exciting indeed. All kinds of events are being planned by many different groups excited about the Weeks Act. A coalition of partners have come together to create a culminating event on the Forest in July and to create a common calendar and information website. Visit www. weekslegacy.org and get ready — the Weeks Act celebration is just getting started. Tiffany Benna is a public affairs officer and partnership coordinator for the White Mountain National Forest.

SALARY from page one

Conway would need to climb to 79th overall in the district listings. Out of 160 districts in the state, Conway ranks 155th at $27,600, behind only Errol, 156th, $27,333; Freedom, 157th, $27,317; Rumney, 158th, $27,000; Madison, and Stewartsown, 160th, $27,750. Bartlett, also located in SAU 9, came in 154th at $28,000 while Jackson was 117th at $31,000. The five highest starting salaries were: Dresden, first, $39,812; Hanover, second, $39,812; Lyme, third, $39,772; Hampton, fourth, $39,445; and Hampton Falls, fifth, $39,445. The Governor Wentworth Regional (Wolfeboro) in Carroll County ranks 46th with an average salary of $35,000, excluding benefits, for starting teachers. Dr. Angus Badger, a former member of the Jackson School Board and now a founding member of the MWV Coalition for Educational Excellence, said last week he was disappointed to see the latest proposed teachers’ contract not really addressing the issue of starting salary for new teachers. “Neal (Moylan, principal of Kennett High) has said he needs the teachers’ contract to pass in order to attract and maintain quality teachers,” Badger said. “I’m not sure $29,000 does that.” Badger said the starting teacher salary for neighboring school districts is much higher than what Conway is offering. He said Berlin has a starting salary of $33,496; Gorham, $32,741; Lincoln, $33,584; Interlakes, $34,000; and Colebrook, $30,000. “You have not raised the salary to a competitive salary,” Badger said. “It’s very concerning to me that Neal can’t get from here to there (raising the educational bar). I would like to know what is the impact of $29,000 as far as retaining good teachers?” “I think we’ve made some steps,” Moylan said diplomatically, “but I feel we still have more steps to make. It’s a very difficult process when the pool of candidates you get, because of what you’re able to offer, is just a millimeter thick. Obviously, a higher starting salary would be better.” Board chairman Janine McLauchlan, who served as chair of the negotiating team in the latest contract negotiations with the Conway Education Association, said that while she couldn’t get into specific contract details, raising the starting teacher salary has been an ongoing desire by the board. “The Conway School Board’s negotiating team has recommended $30,000 for the past three years,” she said, “but this is where the negotiations went.” Conway Education Association president Curtis Finney also would like to see starting pay increased. “While this is a good first step (moving from $27,600 to $29,000),” he said, “the CEA would have liked to see starting salaries in a more competitive range, above $30,000, in order to attract highly qualified teachers. Conway is still at the very bottom in terms of starting salaries, and we hope the school board will continue to increase this in years to come. “Both the CEA and Conway School Board were at $30,000 during negotiations but the school board team backed away from that due to an unwilling-

ness to fund it,” he continued. “Their proposal would have essentially given teachers not even hired yet around a 10 percent raise and veteran teachers 1 to 2 percent. After two years without a contract we did not feel we could accept such a small increase in salary that would have been based upon a teacher’s performance. Increasing salaries overall is another way to retain qualified teachers as Conway is also well below average in teacher salaries.” The state average teacher salary for 2009-10, according to N.H. Department of Education, excluding benefits, was $51,443. Conway’s average teacher salary for 169.4 teachers is $41,633, excluding benefits. Bartlett’s average teacher salary (28.2 teachers) is above the state average, coming in at $54,984. Jackson’s average (6.3 teachers) is $44,600. Freedom (9.1 teachers) is $56,301. Madison’s average (14.5 teachers) is $43,390. Tamworth’s average (26 teachers) is $52,693. Governor Wentworth with 234.8 teachers has an average salary of $53,253. Hanover with 37.8 teachers, has an average salary of $71,124, the highest in the state. The school board and the Conway Education Association teachers’ union agreed earlier this month to ratify a proposed contract for the 2011-12 school year. The contract will now go before the voters in April for approval. Along with an increase in starting teacher pay, the key to the agreement may have been movement on health insurance with the teachers’ union agreeing to switch from a zero deductible to a district-covered $500 healthinsurance deductible. The move will not only save taxpayers an estimated $345,000 in health insurance costs, but the teachers are also expected to save on their insurance premiums. Last April, the contract failed at the polls by just five votes. It, too, had the teachers agreeing to switch to a district-covered deductible. The estimated cost of that bargained package is $355,436 for the 2010-11 school year. The new tentative agreement has an estimated cost of $147,419. The school board is bracing for a 14 percent increase in health insurance this coming year, representing an increase in the neighborhood of $700,000. The contract, if approved by voters next April, would run from July 1, 2011 to June 30, 2012. Both the teachers’ union and the school board recently voted to bring the contract to the voters. The two sides issued a joint press release highlighting the parameters of the agreement. The key elements in this contract include a change in the current health plan to a $500 HMO Low; there is a $15 co-pay on doctor’s visits, and prescription drugs will range from $0-$30-$50. The board will continue to make 80 percent of the contribution toward the premium. The district will also offer an IRS Code Section 125 Plan for medical expenses effective July 1, 2011. Under this plan, the district will provide reimbursement as follows: employee see next page

He departed the Mount Washington Valley for Iraq Saturday and is scheduled to return Jan. 30. He’ll be filing stories primarily for New Hampshire Public Radio, for whom he has been a stringer since 2008, as well as The Conway Daily Sun, where he has been a reporter since October. Prior to that he worked for the Berlin Reporter from May 2009. He has been doing freelance work since 2005. “I’ll be posting photos, journal entries and audio interviews with soldiers at www.nhpr.org,&rdquo; says Eisele, who in addition to his reporting job at the Sun and NPR, is also a local climbing guide with International Mountain Climbing School. He is hoping to find and share stories of New Hampshire soldiers — the stories that aren’t normally in the headlines or on the national news. “I’m looking to tell the stories of New Hampshire soldiers on the ground; not just the overall foreign policy implications,” says Eisele. “There are kids over there, and I think their stories are at least as important to report on as foreign policy implications and larger scale

only, up to $500 per contract year; employee plus one, up to $1,000 per contract year; and employee plus two or more, up to $1,500 per contract year. The district has also developed a $9,000 pool for reimbursement to unit members who experience more than one $500 deductible. It was a $25,000 pool in last year’s failed contract. The estimated annual savings to the district over the previous health insurance plan is in excess of $345,000. The savings to the employees will be $361 for a single; $723 for a two-person; and $976 for a family. The projected savings in last year’s plan were $279 for a single; $557 for a two-person plan; and $763 for a family plan. The agreement also calls for a

movements and the insurgency. Every part of that needs to be part of the story. “There has been a lot of focus on the war in Afghanistan,” he added prior to his departure from the Sun’s newsroom for Portland and then Boston Friday afternoon, “but it’s also important to remember there are still soldiers serving in Iraq.” The Obama administration last February opted to give the war in Iraq a new name: “Operation New Dawn,” to reflect the reduced role of U.S. troops. The transition to Operation New Dawn on Sept. 1 marked the official end to Operation Iraqi Freedom and combat operations by United States forces in Iraq. According to the U.S. Army, during Operation New Dawn, the remaining 50,000 U.S. service members serving in Iraq are to conduct stability operations, focusing on advising, assisting and training Iraqi Security Forces (ISF). Operation New Dawn also represents a shift from a predominantly military U.S. presence to one that is predominantly civilian, as the Departments of Defense and State work together with governmental see EISELE page 10

negotiated cost-of-living allowance increase of 2 percent and performance pay as follows: unsatisfactory and basic will receive no money while proficient/distinguished receive $600. Last year’s failed contract called for a cost-of-living increase of 2.5 percent for all employees, while there was also an increase in performance pay with $0 for unsatisfactory performance; $250 for basic level; and $850 for proficient level. The new contract provides a hiring schedule which starts at $29,000 for a Bachelor’s degree, Step I. In the failed contract last year, the starting salary would have been $30,000. In addition, the agreement provides more flexibility in the starting dates for the school year. This line was also included in the failed contract last spring.

and non-governmental agencies to help build Iraq’s civil capacity. The transition to Operation New Dawn, according to the Army, represents “the U.S. commitment to the government and people of Iraq as a sovereign, stable country that will be an enduring strategic partner with the United States. This has been made possible by the improved capability of the ISF to take the lead in securing their country.” ••• Eisele flew out of Boston Saturday to London, and then traveled on to Kuwait, where he was met by the U.S. military and flown to Baghdad. After spending a day there to process his ID credentials, he was flown by the military to Forward Operating Base Kalsu. In addition to his usual reporter’s tools of a laptop computer, two digital cameras, digital tape recorder and three microphones, he also packed his new gear: bulletproof vest, helmet, and protective ballistic goggles. It may come as a surprise to some that he was not required to undergo any military training for his assignment. “Not that I would not have liked undergoing basic training — I think I would have enjoyed that,” he said. “They basically are expecting you to be physically fit enough to be able to do what they direct you to do — and be prepared to walk and march and all that stuff.”

••• Eisele heard about the embedded reporter program through the Independent Producers Radio Network. He called his news director at NPR, asking if NPR would buy stories from Eisele should he go to Iraq. With that OK, he set his plan in motion. He will be fulfilling a lifelong dream to be a foreign correspondent. “I am hoping this will be the first of many such trips, depending how this one goes,” he said, saying he would like to report from Afghanistan in the future. His interest in reporting on Iraq stems from a childhood friend’s having been deployed to Iraq for 15 months during Operation Iraqi Freedom. “I look at reporting as a chance to bring stories that need to be told to life. And no one’s stories need to be told more than those of people who are largely ignored,” said Eisele. Mark Guerringue, publisher of the Conway Daily Sun, credited Eisele for his commitment and determination. “It is a great opportunity for Erik as a journalist,” said Guerringue, “and we are proud he is representing the paper. Our plan is to carry a daily blog from him. It will be interesting to see what his experience is personally and to read his reports on our troops, which is always important.” Eisele’s daily blog from Iraq can be found on The Conway Daily Sun’s Web site, www.conwaydailysun.com.

Storm leads to early school dismissals BY TOM EASTMAN THE CONWAY DAILY SUN

CONWAY — With more snow forecast for Friday, the third significant snowstorm of the season Tuesday led a local weather observer to say that the storm tracks have changed for the better for snow lovers. “We do seem to be changing to more of a storm track. We have been way behind so far in our monthly and yearto-date snowfall totals,” said Ed Bergeron, North Conway cooperative weather observer for the U.S. Weather Service. Tuesday’s storm led SAU 9 in Conway and Maine School Administrative Unit 72 in Fryeburg to let classes out early at 12:30 p.m. Local emergency personnel reported a few minor accidents. A dispatcher for New Hampshire State Police Troop E said that drivers appeared to be “exercising caution” and driving slow on the snowy roads. Plows for the state and local towns hit the roads

Tuesday to clear, salt and sand the roads. A two-vehicle accident occurred at the intersection of Seavey Street and North-South Road at approximately 12:40 p.m. One of the cars was a Subaru Outback wagon driven by Maggie Solomon of North Conway; the other was a Pontiac Montana SV6. Solomon’s vehicle was eastbound on Seavey Street. Solomon said she stopped at the stop sign before proceeding across North-

South Road. She said her vehicle was struck by the Pontiac driven by an unidentified female driver who was heading south on North-South Road. Solomon said she had not seen the other vehicle. It was snowing heavily at the time of the accident at the busy intersection, which has been the site of several accidents in the years since the North-South Road opened in 2002. The Subaru was damaged on the driver’s side

while the front right headlight on the passenger side of the Pontiac sustained damage. Solomon’s dog, Taffy, was in the back of her vehicle in a cage and was uninjured in the accident. Both vehicles were towed from the scene to Northeast Auto Body. Solomon was driven to her North Conway home by Conway police. The driver of the other vehicle was taken to Memorial Hospital. North Conway fire and rescue responded.

The snow added to last Wednesday’s nor’easter, which coated ski slopes, ski touring trails and snowmobile trails just prior to Martin Luther King Jr. Holiday Weekend. The region also received a Christmas Week storm, but had been in a snow drought. According to Bergeron, prior to Tuesday’s additional 3 to 7-plus additional inches of snow, North Conway had received only 23.4 inches of snow this season, and only 14 inches for the

month of January. The average for season to date is 40 inches and in a typical January, North Conway receives 18 to 20 inches. January 2010 saw only 13.3 inches of snow in what turned out to be a low snow year total of a paltry 54 inches. January 2009’s total was 38.7 inches and January ‘08 was just 25 inches, Bergeron said, adding, however, that “both ‘08 and ‘09 were well over 140 inches” total. “So, things appear to be looking up for snowfall,” said Bergeron, who said the National Weather Service is predicting two days of clearing weather after Tuesday’s storm, to be followed by more snow Friday, which will precede the influx of perhaps the “coldest weather of the season so far,” said Bergeron. “Saturday is gong to be really, really cold, and so is next week,” he said. The National Weather Service issued a winter storm warning for the region until 5 a.m. Wednesday.

MICHAEL KLINE

Shut up and be happy The title of this week’s column was inspired by a list of reasons why retired drill sergeants don’t make good therapists. This week, we’re talking about decisions, choices and leadership. A funny story: I was listening to a friend talking through some sadness in her life. She went on and on, as we all do when we have a sad event to get through. Eventually, we risk slipping into a self-pitying, complaining and whining mode which is far less productive than the initial healthy talk-it-out stage. When I had heard enough and when she was no longer helping herself by talking about it, I simply said, “Shut up and be happy.” She later told me it was the best advice anyone ever gave her! My message wasn’t cruel. I simply meant it was time to move on, pick yourself up and stop whining — in Nike parlance, “Just Do It.” Dad might have said, “Suck Michael Kline it up”; grandpa might have said, “Pull yourself up by your bootstraps; or (this really happened) my gay faith-healer friend would put his hand on your forehead and say, “Get over it girlfriend!” The point is, the outcome is under your control. It’s simply a decision to be happy, sad, angry or creative. The situation that led to your feelings may not have been under your control, but how you respond is totally under your control. I had the honor of speaking to the Leadership MWV group last week, which made me feel good about our future in the valley. I shared my story of the day I graduated from being a reactor to being a responder. As a young and foolish reactor, when bad things happened, I would react passionately to express my displeasure – that’s a polite way to say yell, scream and generally pitch a fit until the problem gets fixed and I get my way. We all know people who do this entirely too often, and I was one of them. One day, perhaps at the time the worst business day ever in the history of retail travel agencies, was the day the airlines cut commissions to travel agencies. I was president of a franchisor with 35 franchisees who, having just lost 20 percent of their revenue would be looking to me for guidance and solutions. It was the most sobering moment of my professional life thus far, as financially, at first glance, we were ruined. We had all this business, not to mention 175 employees who would all be gone overnight if someone didn’t do something fast. We responded within minutes with instant and constant communication to keep everyone calm and to maintain a professional and congenial environment. We coordinated with our international team to pull together the best talent available to create our own unexpected strategy to not only survive, but to recover more than our loss within one quarter. It worked brilliantly. The success came, not only because of good ideas, which would not have been enough, but because of the trust previously built into the relationship and because of the choices made in how responses were

Renewed use for old energy system at Mount Washington Auto Road lodge BY GAIL SCOTT THE BERLIN DAILY SUN

GORHAM—Back in the 1880s, the Glen House, with its magnificent view of Mount Washington and the northern peaks, boasted of running water and flush toilets for guests at the elegant hostelry. Today, the same water system that served 19thcentury guests is supplying the electrical needs of the Mount Washington Auto Road Lodge, as well as the fire sprinkler system and “very-occasional” Great Glen Trails snow-making capacity.

Mineral Spring Cafe growing in popularity among students and public BY LLOYD JONES THE CONWAY DAILY SUN

CONWAY — The Mineral Spring Cafe, site of the culinary arts program under the umbrella of the Mount Washington Valley Career and Technical Center at Kennett High School, is thriving. Now in its fourth year, the program has become so popular that there’s actually a student waiting list to take the course. The cafe is once again open for lunch to the general public, and the young chefs

carefully crafted and presented by cool heads. Tough times make the best opportunities for great leaders. I don’t mean just for leading other people, but in leading your own life as well. Every sad thing that happens to us, or every downturn in our lives personally or economically, is an opportunity to find a silver lining and demonstrate our ability to make good choices. That’s the good news. The bad news is, this means we have to accept responsibility for the outcome of the bad situation, because it’s our response, not the problem itself, that produces the outcome. That’s the hard part, because it is difficult to take blame for something

caused by someone else. Every human being has the responsibility of leadership. I believe anyone can lead regardless of their position or official authority. But, before we get serious about leading others we need to get serious about leading ourselves through our own thoughts, reactions, responses and outcomes in life. Shut up and be happy.

according to F. Allen Burt in “The Story of Mount Washington.” At the end of the 1884 season, the hotel was destroyed by fire, but rebuilt “on a much grander scale” for the 1885 season — when the water system that now powers the Auto Road Lodge may have been established.

Road. Water had to be supplied to serve the needs of the guests. A memo prepared by current Auto Road general manager Howie Wemyss suggests that at this time a dam was constructed on “Nineteenmile Brook that held back water so it could be diverted toward the Glen House.” Wemyss says he doesn’t know when this was done, but that it seems reasonable to suppose it was done when Milliken’s post-fire Glen House was built. The mechanics of this construction were that a wooden penstock went from Nineteenmile Brook to an open waterway. “This waterway appears to have been the ‘Aqueduct’ that the later Appalachian Mountain Club trail was named after,” Wemyss surmises. This aqueduct appears to have supplied the Glen House and later the Auto Road Lodge with

The antique feed of a maximum of 432 gallons per minute from a mountain stream is powering a modern facility in the North Country. The new system is expected to pay for itself in four years. water over ensuing decades. Subsequently, an eight-inch iron pipe was run under Route 16 to what is now called “the generator building.” At the same time “a building east of the upper employee parking lot, called the Diesel Power House, plus ‘the generator building,’ supplied all of the power to the third Glen House, and may have continued to do so until Wildcat came into being in 1958,” writes Wemyss in his memo.

Evidently, around this time Public Service of New Hampshire ran power lines into Pinkham Notch, so the Glen House and Auto Road facilities could go “on line,” if need be. In 1984 then Auto Road general manager Doug Philbrook, aware of the hydro power potential of the generations-old water system feed from Nineteenmile Brook, engaged Small Hydro East of Newry, Maine, “to design and install a modern ‘micro hydro generation’ plant to take advantage the existing waterworks,” according to Wemyss’ memo. “The design output for this was to be 10 KW but we have never been able to get that much out of it and have never been able to figure out why,” wrote Weymss. But five years ago Bill Clewes, of Littleton, engaged to conduct the Auto Road’s annual generator certification mandated for PSNH’s networking renewable rate program, observed that it might be useful for the Auto Road to replace the 1984 turbine and generator “with a modern set designed exactly for the available flow,” wrote Wemyss. Clewes suggested seeking the help of Greg Cloutier, of Powerhouse Systems Inc. of Lancaster. With the combined expertise of Clewes and Cloutier, the Auto Road contacted Canyon Hydro, of Deming, Wash., which specializes in small hydro systems. The group designed a new, efficient small turbine system which has been acquired and installed, with the additional assistance and supply from Jonathan Taylor Electrical of Intervale. And so the antique feed of a maximum of 432 gallons per minute from a mountain stream is powering a modern facility in the North Country. The new system is expected to pay for itself in four years, according to Wemyss. And should a drought fail the facility, PSNH’s Michael D. Motta, engineer, Supplemental Energy Sources, says PSNH’s power will be right there to continue the net metering energy feed, without interruption. Since the late 20th century, drinking water and other water needs have been supplied to the Auto Road facilities from a well and are not affected by the new small hydro power system.

The sous chef job has been in the news recently, specifically over how to fund the position. The position was funded since its creation four years ago by a Perkins grant which the district can no longer apply for. The initial intent was for revenue from the Mineral Springs Cafe to cover the position, but that has not happened and in all likelihood will not. The school board has been proposing a warrant article seeking $28,700 (half of the employee’s salary and benefits package), representing an additional 2 cents per $1,000, but may not have to go that route, at least next year. School superintendent Carl Nelson informed the board last week that the district will receive a federal grant for over $100,000 and that money can be used to fund positions such as the sous chef. Babine explained to the school board the student-run restaurant is only open three days a week for 90 minutes at a time. The restaurant has been able to increase its revenues by expanding its commercial catering along with providing dinner to Eagle Academy students through a grant the district received. Babine said the restaurant would need to be open five days a week for more than 90 minutes at a time to approach the funds needed “It’s difficult to get the hours up there,” she said. “We’re not a full-service restaurant, we’re a learning lab.” Jane Gray, of Eaton, who is the chairman of the SAU 9 Board and therefore sits on the Conway School Board’s budget committee, spoke in favor of the sous-chef post. “If you cut the position I think you’ll have the program collapse,” she said. Mattei spoke about the importance of having Remillard in the kitchen. “We’re not a one-person shop,” he said. “If you don’t have two people, you can not run things. The sous chef is basically the second in command. I’d like to get the named changed culinary instructor. Tim does a lot of hands on stuff with the kids and that allows me to do a lot more individual stuff. To me, it’s a perfect partnership and it benefits the kids tremendously. With the Culinary II kids, I’m able to have nine spend a week with me

while Tim has nine with him and then we flip flop.” Another benefit being realized this year by the culinary students is the new 90-minute block schedule. “It was perfect for us,” Babine said. “It gives more flexibility for students to take our programs. (Laughing) Before (under the 55-minute schedule), the students used to make the batter and not be able to see it through.” Mattei, who is in his 37th year of teaching culinary, agreed. “Now kids can actually see their work from start to finish,” he said. “The block schedule is great for us.” Two Culinary I courses are offered this semester, and there is one Culinary II class, which runs the restaurant. There are 18 students in Culinary II: Cate Burrows, Ryan Burroughs, Taylor DiSilva, Nick Dube, Brooke Elliott, Ruth Estey, Christine Fournier, Sierna Holman, Jacob Lyman, Jennifer Schneider, Chucky Smith, Lindsey Tillinghast, Ashley Vallieres, Britney Derosa, Justin Moore, Kyle Ela, Jordan Schaub and Jasmind Bouche. “Out of all my 90 kids I’ve got and all the years I’ve taught, which I’ve been been teaching 37 years, all of my groups have got to be the best groups I’ve ever had,” Mattei said. “I’ve always had great kids, but these are my best groups, I mean that seriously. Our culinary I kids right now have more experience than our Culinary II kids did when they started.” Students take the course five days a week although the cafe is open Tuesday through Thursday from 11 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. Mattei said the students get a complete picture of what it takes to run a restaurant, experiencing working in the dining room as well as kitchen work. The students rotate various stations — one day working on the grill line and perhaps the next washing pots and pans. “We keep them in a two-week rotation,” Mattei said. “Some of the kids don’t like the dining room but they’re going to be in it. Two weeks of dining room then two weeks on the (grill) and even two weeks on pots and pans and one in dishes. The nice thing about this group is when we are slow some see next page

He’s stepped up into the classroom last year while Remillard, who worked in the school cafeteria two years ago is into his second year as the new sous-chef. “He and I work great together,” Mattei said. “He’s got a great attitude with the kids and the kids like him.” Mattei said the cafe may expand. “We’re contemplating maybe down the road going to a fourth day, but right now three days is good,” Mattei said. The cafe also does takeout (3564372). You can pay for meals by cash or check. No credit cards. “On Fridays we probably do $200 to $250 in takeout dinners,” Mattei said. “We do things from beef stew to chicken pot pies. We’re also doing a few outside functions like the Veterans Day dinner that brought in about 100 people.” The dining room, equipped with 60

comfortable seats, is well lit by natural light and offers a great view of the renovated Conway Mineral Spring House. “This is a wonderful facility,” Mattei said. “The kids love it and they want to try and see different things. It’s good. People are starting to find us. We’re trying to cater to the senior citizens. I’d like to see them come up here and have their main meal of the day here so at night they can have something light. It’s working. We’ve had a lot of seniors come up. They like the prices, they’re reasonable, especially when we put the shrimp and scallops on the menu. We want the community be a part of this. We need them because the food the kids are preparing has to be sold somewhere.” Aside from cooking lunch for the community, for the second year, thanks to a grant, the culinary students are also preparing dinner for students enrolled in the Eagle Academy (night school). “We have a grant that feeds the the Eagle Academy students a hot meal four nights a week,” Babine said. “It’s wonderful to be able to do it. I think it means a lot these students cooking for others. We’re raising the bar here.”

Freezin’ For a Reason returns on Jan. 22 It’s time again for Freezin’ For a Reason, the polar dip that takes place at Highland Lake in Bridgton, Maine on Saturday, Jan. 22, at 1 p.m. and raises money for Harvest Hills Animal Shelter. For several years I participated and loved every minute of it. But this year my friends offered to donate only if I didn’t jump! On behalf of the animals I thank you all for your generosity. Your donations will help to house and feed them until they find their forever homes. The weather forecast is calling for temperatures around 20 degrees, pretty chilly for running into the frigid water of Highland Lake in the dead of winter. I’ll include today’s quote in the middle of the column, as I think it applies to Saturdays dip: “Whether the weather be fine, Whether the weather be not, Whether the weather be cold, Whether the weather be hot, We’ll weather the weather, Whatever the weather, Whether we like it or not.” Don’t forget that the jump is only a part of Lake Region’s Mushers Bowl activities. There is plenty to do throughout the weekend. For information about the schedule, go to mainelakesmushersbowl.com. If you’re in need of a good laugh, comedian Tim

Sample will be performing at the Leura Hill Eastman Performing Arts Center on the evening of Jan. 22 at 7:30 p.m. Tickets are $15 per person and the proceeds benefit the Fryeburg Academy Softball team. Tickets can be reserved at the box office at boxoffice@fryeburgacademy.org or by calling (207) 935-9232. Zumba classes start on Thursday, Jan. 20, at the Brownfield Community Center. Classes run for six weeks. To find out more call (207) 935-3800 or e-mail brownfieldrecdept@yahoo.com. Zumba is a fun, easy way to get into shape! The second annual Winter Carnival sponsored by the Brownfield Recreation Department will be held on Saturday, Jan. 29, at the community center. There will be sleigh rides, dog sled rides, ice skating, sledding, snowmobile demonstrations, food and a whole lot of fun. More information will be included in next week’s column. The Fryeburg skating rink is officially open. The rink is open to the public day and night thanks to members of the recreation department. Lace up your skates and have some fun. A combined concert is scheduled for Monday, Jan.

24, at 7 p.m. at Kennett High School’s Loynd Auditorium. Members of the Fryeburg Academy and Kennett High band and chorus will team up to raise money for Fryeburg Academy and Kennett High School music scholarships. Suggested donations at the door are $10 for adults, $5 for students and $25 for a family of four. Applications for Dollars for Scholars are now available at the Fryeburg Public Library as well as the Fryeburg Academy and Kennett Guidance Offices. You can also download application forms and awards information at dfsmwv.homestead.com. I was out of town this past weekend so was sorry to miss the benefit supper for Bryson Herlihy. I’m sure it was a success with so many friends and family in the community rooting for them. A fund has been set up at Norway Savings Bank in Fryeburg for those who wish to make a monetary donation. Checks may be sent to the Bryson Herlihy Donation Fund, Norway Bank, 557 Main Street, Fryeburg, ME 04037. Please keep me posted at ravenstone54@hotmail. com with your upcoming events and activities. In the meantime, get out and enjoy this beautiful Maine winter.

Fryeburg Academy soft ball team fund-raiser with Tim Simple Jan. 22 The January meeting of the Lovell Neighborhood Watch has been canceled. The next meeting will be on Feb. 16 at the New Suncook School cafeteria starting at 6:30 to 8 p.m. For those who would like to check the watch website its www.lovellmaine.net. A Mother Seton update has given the Mother Seton group extended hope. Currently the “House” is 81st out of 302 projects which is fantastic for a small community in Maine. This group of hopeful people can see their dream come true if everyone out there continues to vote. To make it even better the “House” has a partner called Mommy’s Heart beat, which is kind of ironic because the Seton House will make a home for mommies. Each day just vote at their link www. refresheverything.com/mothersetonhouse. Tell your friends, send them the information, and with a lot of prayers we just might beat the odds. An update on the Masonic benefit breakfast held for Bryson Herlihy. Over 300 people answered the call to help this little boy who is presently going through a tough time as is his parents. It was largest attendance since the Masons started holding these breakfasts to benefit many causes. Then on Saturday, Jan. 8, the sophomore class of the Academy led by class president Michelle Bouchard, held a spaghetti dinner at the Mother Seaton church in Fryeburg. It must have given these young people, who knew at least one person in Bryson’s family, an added incentive to plan and put together a dinner to help this

little boy. The weather wasn’t the greatest but still, in an educated guess more than 250 to 300 people showed up adding their support to the family. What a positive power this is for the parents T.J. and Aimee knowing so many people are standing behind them giving them the strength to take care of their baby. At these times it proves there is still heart out there. Don’t forget that the Fryeburg Academy soft ball team is having a fundraiser for spring training with a performance of Tim Sample on Jan. 22 at the Leura Eastman Center for the Performing arts. The tickets are $15 per person. Tickets can be obtained by going on line to boxoffice@ fryeburgacademy.org or call (207) 935-9232. The New Suncook School Playground Committee and PTA are organizing fund raisers to buy new playground equipment for the school. The new equipment would be suitable for all the students. As the New Suncook is an inclusive school where special needs student are mainstreamed into the classrooms and lunchrooms with the other student the play ground equipment must be upgraded to meet their needs also. With the equipment geared to their needs they can, along with the other students, maintain strong bodies. The group will be putting on a Pot Luck Dinner on Saturday, Feb. 5, at the New Suncook doors opening at 3:30 p.m. There will be entertainment, New Suncook Student Art Display and Raffles. Some of the items included in the raffle are a overnight for four at the Courtyard

Marriott in Boston, an American Girl Gift Certificate, a Handmade Quilt, a Mountain Top Music Gift Certificate, a Day of Beauty Basket and theme Baskets made by classes of New Suncook. The admission for dinner is Adults $7. And Children $4. Raffle tickets are $1 each 6 for $5. Tickets can be purchased at the New Suncook office. There is a need for volunteers to make a dish for dinner or desert. There will be a sign up sheet in the school office. The drawing of the raffle will take place at 6:45 p.m. Well, we’re all disappointed again because the Patriots lost but there will still be a Super Bowl Game. Because of the great response to the “Lobster Rolls” the Fryeburg Academy Softball parents through the Raiders booster Club are bring them back again. Anyone living in the SAD 72 area or Bridgton, Cornish, North Conway/Conway area can call for a Lobster Roll to be delivered on Feb. 6 between 3 to 5 p.m. to your door. To order you can go on line to raidersboosterclub@yahoo.com and order the number of rolls including your name, address and phone number. You can also call Stacy McConkey at (207) 320-0006, Val Tripp at (207) 557-2566 or Ruth Apt at (207) 935-3019. The amount of people needed to make this fund raiser a success proves the amount of support and respect the softball team receives from the booster and family members. The lobster rolls are $8 each and must be paid for on delivery, correct amount, or before hand. The academy softball team had brought great success to the program and this is a great way to support them.

Raiders beat rival Lakers THE CONWAY DAILY SUN

FRYEBURG — The Raider boys’ basketball team defeated archrival Lake Region 47-44 Saturday night. The much-needed win followed a 61-17 drubbing at the hands of Falmouth at home on Thursday. The win versus Lake Region left the Raiders at 2-8 and nearing must win territory if they want to reach their post-season goal. In typical fashion the Raiders and Lakers of Lake Region battled one another from the opening tap to the final buzzer. The Raiders owned 12-9 first quarter and 20-19 halftime leads and then outscored the Lakers 18-10 in the third quarter to take 38-29 lead into the fourth quarter. The Lakers battled, as anyone who knows the history of this rivalry would expect, but the Raiders held them off for the three-point win. Colby Locke led the Raider charge in the third quarter with 10 of his game-high 25 points. Locke’s size allowed him to dominate the paint for periods of the game. Bright Amoako continued to show develop his game with 13 points for Fryeburg. Kevin Gilson led Lake Region with 22 points. The win followed a touch 61-17 loss against a balanced Falmouth team. The Raiders stayed afloat through the first half trailing 30-13 at the break, but then went completely cold. The Raiders managed only four points in the second half as Falmouth scored 31 more. Locke paced the Raiders with six points. The Raiders will return to action at home tomorrow hosting Wells and travel to Falmouth for another shot at the Yachtsmen on Saturday.

The Kennett High ski jumpers are scheduled to host their lone home meet of the season this Friday at 6 p.m. on the Kanc.

FRYEBURG — The Fryeburg Academy wrestling team handled a traditionally tough Dirigo squad on Wednesday night 52-30. Some usual suspects powered the Raider win. The Raiders earned five pins during the evening. Matt Frost at 119, Hubbard at 145, Ian McFawn at 189, Peter Bacchiocchi at 152, and Gio Difazio at 285 all pinned their opponents to power the Raider win. At 171, Nate Hill scored an 8-0 major decision, and at 215 Fenton scored a default victory. Connor Sheehan won by forfeit. Next up for the Raiders is a road meet this evening (6 p.m.) against Westbrook and Wells.

DILBERT

By Holiday Mathis down on paper the goal that is in your heart. If you don’t have a set destination, you will not have a system of measurement to tell you when you are slipping far away from where you really want to be. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). With people who understand you, you don’t have to perform or think of new subjects to talk about. You can just be you, and it feels good. You’ll be with those you like, and it’s satisfying. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Get into action mode, even if you’re not so sure of what you really want to do. The momentum will lead to something. Trust the instincts that move your body and mind. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You are perceptive and wise. It will be easy for you to read the signals. If it’s a ﬁght to keep the ball bouncing, maybe this is not the right game for you. Tonight: Someone embraces you wholeheartedly. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Highly creative people are drawn to you. It seems as though they are bouncing off the walls with many ideas that are not on point. However, you have a talent for focusing everyone on the task at hand. TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Jan. 19). Your health and stamina are high this year, and you’ll have the energy to tackle your more ambitious dreams. The pressure is on in April, and you show everyone what you can do and surprise even yourself! Give to someone in need in March. You’ll be a hero. Travel is favored for July and September. Cancer and Libra people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 20, 4, 22, 31 and 25.

by Darby Conley

ARIES (March 21-April 19). You’ll be in charge of a meeting. It will help you to tell those involved the starting and ending times of the meeting upfront so everyone can time their discussion accordingly. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You are a learner. Remember this -- even when you feel like standing still in what you already know. These are times of change, and adaptation is a must! GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Soldier on. When you get tired, it energizes you to keep going. You hit your second wind and then your third before you even get a glimpse of the goal line. Your win is sweeter for this effort. CANCER (June 22-July 22). Some people are more afraid of success than they are of failure. What about you? You’ll ﬁnd out today when you hit a wave of little successes that build into one big success. How does it make you feel? LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). When you need help, ask for it. When there is no one around to ask, ask anyway. Maybe you are talking to yourself, or maybe you are pleading to the invisible powers that be. You will be heard and answered. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). No pushing or forcing the action along -it simply won’t work. This is a day to relax. You’re better off sitting back and watching. Things happen naturally and easily when they’re right. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You might procrastinate. It’s not because you can’t be bothered to take action. It’s because you are busy with the most important things -- the things that bring the highest payoff for you. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Write

Today is Wednesday, Jan. 19, the 19th day of 2011. There are 346 days left in the year. Today’s Highlight in History: On Jan. 19, 1861, Georgia became the fifth state to secede from the Union as delegates to a special convention in Milledgeville (MIHL’-ihj-vihl) (then the capital) voted 208-89 for separation. On this date: In 1807, Confederate general Robert E. Lee was born in Westmoreland County, Va. In 1853, Giuseppe Verdi’s opera “Il Trovatore” premiered in Rome. In 1937, millionaire Howard Hughes set a transcontinental air record by flying his monoplane from Los Angeles to Newark, N.J., in 7 hours, 28 minutes and 25 seconds. In 1955, a presidential news conference was filmed for television for the first time, with the permission of President Dwight D. Eisenhower. In 1966, Indira Gandhi was elected prime minister of India. In 1970, President Richard M. Nixon nominated G. Harrold Carswell to the Supreme Court; however, the nomination was defeated because of controversy over Carswell’s past racial views. In 1980, retired Supreme Court Justice William O. Douglas died in Washington, D.C., at age 81. In 1981, the United States and Iran signed an accord paving the way for the release of 52 Americans held hostage for more than 14 months. One year ago: In a major upset, Republican Scott Brown captured the U.S. Senate seat held by liberal champion Edward Kennedy for nearly half a century as he defeated Democrat Martha Coakley in a special election. Today’s Birthdays: Actress Jean Stapleton is 88. Actor Fritz Weaver is 85. Actress Tippi Hedren is 81. Movie director Richard Lester is 79. Singer Phil Everly is 72.

Help Wanted by Abigail Van Buren

TALES OF BEDROOM ANTICS ARE BAD TOPIC FOR CONVERSATION DEAR ABBY: I am a fairly conservative young woman, and also somewhat shy. I have been dating a young man who comes from a much more casual culture than I do. This has its benefits -- he laughs often and deeply, and easily connects with people. But it also has its downside. “Mac” has a terrible habit of talking publicly about what we do in the bedroom. He means it in a teasing way, and he’s never insulting. He can’t understand why it upsets me, although he is always remorseful when he realizes I’m angry. He worries that I’m ashamed of him and what we do, but I’m not. I just don’t want it to be a topic of public discussion, especially with people from my church. I find it embarrassing to have my love life made public. Mac is never mean-spirited, only vulgar, which to him is acceptable. I love him. He’s a strong, kind and generous man. But I do not feel respected. The truth is, he just doesn’t know how to treat me with respect. What can I do? -- WOMAN OF CHARACTER DEAR WOMAN OF CHARACTER: Mac is “always” remorseful? You should not have had to tell him more than once that his talking about your sex life made you uncomfortable. He appears to crave attention any way he can get it. His lack of sensitivity for your feelings is a red flag. Mac may be funny, strong, kind and generous, but because he doesn’t understand boundaries, he isn’t likely to change. What you must do is ask yourself if this is the way you want the rest of your life to be, because if you continue this relationship, this will be your reality -- and nothing will be kept private. DEAR ABBY: “Clyde” and I dated as teenagers. After we separated, he married someone else. We met up again and had an affair, which resulted in two children. I ended it be-

cause it was going nowhere and raised the children alone. Clyde and I have now come full circle. After separating from his wife, he sought me out. I have loved only him my entire life. We have been living together for several years now, and I have an engagement ring with no hope of marriage. He keeps telling me his wife is holding up the divorce. Abby, how long can one person hold up a divorce? I have waited 25 years for this man, and I don’t know if I will wait forever. -- TIRED OF WAITING IN NEW JERSEY DEAR TIRED OF WAITING: Clyde may not have been completely honest with you. I ran your letter by a family law specialist who informed me that here in the U.S.A. no one can be forced to stay married against his or her will. A divorce is a court proceeding. A spouse can stall signing an agreement -- the division of property would be an example -- but not a court process. As for your being unwilling to wait for Clyde “forever” -- you have already done that. Twenty-ﬁve years of waiting for a man who’s unavailable is forever. DEAR ABBY: I work for a dentist. There are two other staff members besides me. The dentist occasionally receives gifts (goodie baskets, ﬂowers, baked goods, etc.) from specialists thanking him for referring patients to them. These gifts usually have cards that say “To Doctor and Staff,” but he never shares any of it with us; he takes it all home. Should I approach him about this? -- NO PERKS IN INDIANA DEAR NO PERKS: I don’t think so. While your feelings are understandable, you would have nothing to gain but poundage. And besides, it’s almost impossible to shame the shameless.
