Wal-Mart to promote healthy foods WASHINGTON (NY Times) — Wal-Mart, the nation’s largest retailer, will announce a five-year plan on Thursday to make thousands of its packaged foods lower in unhealthy salts, fats and sugars, and to drop prices on fruits and vegetables. The initiative came out of discussions the company has been having with Michelle Obama, the first lady, who will attend the announcement in Washington and has made healthy eating and reducing childhood obesity the centerpiece of her agenda. Aides say it is the first time Mrs. Obama has thrown her support behind the work of a single company. The plan, similar to efforts by other companies and to public health initiatives by New York City, sets specific targets for lowering sodium, trans fats and added sugars in a broad array of foods — including rice, soups, canned beans, salad dressings and snacks like potato chips — packaged under the company’s house brand, Great Value. In interviews previewing the announcement, WalMart and White House officials said the company was also pledging to press its major food suppliers, like Kraft, to follow its example. Wal-Mart does not disclose how much of its sales come from its house brand.

U.S. military deaths in Afghanistan.
Blackwater founder is said to back African mercenaries WASHINGTON (NY Times) — Erik Prince, the founder of the international security giant Blackwater Worldwide, is secretly backing an effort by a controversial South African mercenary firm to insert itself into Somalia’s bloody civil war by protecting government leaders, training Somali militias, and battling pirates and Islamic militants there, according to Western and African officials. The disclosure comes as Mr. Prince sells off his interest in the company he built into a
behemoth with billions of dollars in American government contracts in Iraq and Afghanistan, work that mired him in controversy and lawsuits amid reports of reckless behavior by his operatives, including the deaths of civilians in Iraq. His efforts to wade into the chaos of Somalia appears to be Mr. Prince’s latest endeavor to remain at the center of a campaign against Islamic radicalism in some of the world’s most war-ravaged corners. Mr. Prince moved to the United Arab Emirates late last year.
Lebanese crisis deepens as talks break down BEIRUT (NY Times) — Lebanon’s worst crisis in years escalated dangerously on Thursday, as a last-ditch effort to reach a negotiated solution ended in failure and the Americanbacked caretaker prime minister struck a defiant note toward Hezbollah and its allies, who brought down his 14-month-old national unity government earlier this month. The events cast the crisis into an unpredictable moment, as each side became ever more entrenched in positions with
little common ground, over indictments expected to name members of Hezbollah in the assassination of the prime minister’s father, Rafik Hariri. The 17-minute speech by Prime Minister Saad Hariri was delivered just hours after Turkey and Qatar announced that they had abandoned work on their diplomatic initiative. It brought the long-running confrontation in this flammable country between Mr. Hariri’s supporters, backed by the United States and France,

and Hezbollah and its allies, backed by Iran and Syria, squarely around the personality of Mr. Hariri himself. In his address, he said he would seek to form a new government in talks next week, defying demands by Hezbollah and its allies that he step down and raising the prospect that the Shiite Muslim movement might revert to the street — be it protests, labor strikes or even violent confrontations — to ensure Mr. Hariri is unable to do so.

SAN FRANCISCO (NY Times) — Google said Thursday that Larry Page, its co-founder and president of products, would take over as chief executive, succeeding Eric E. Schmidt. Mr. Schmidt will remain executive chairman and serve as adviser to Mr. Page and Sergey Brin, the other company cofounder and its president of technology. The shake-up, which will take effect April 4, is the biggest change in management at the company since Mr. Schmidt joined as chief executive in 2001. “Larry, Sergey and I have been talking for a long time about how best to simplify our management structure and speed up decision making — and over the holidays we decided now was the right moment to make some changes to the way we are structured,” Mr. Schmidt wrote in a blog post.

N.H. plan paves way for a whole new court system BY TOM FAHEY THE UNION LEADER
CONCORD — A proposed 10-year plan to reform the state court system could save up to $37 million and blend the functions of district, family and probate courts. Video-conferenced arraignments and hearings, joint staffs, electronic filing, a centralized calling center and a new system for handling routine traffic tickets are also part of the plan developed by an Innovation Commission that retired Supreme Court Justice John Broderick organized. It would also hand off the sometimes difficult task of collecting fines to another agency or a private firm. Courts impose close to $15 million a year in fines, yet $1.7 million remain unpaid. After fines are a month overdue they become increasingly difficult to collect, the report notes. In addition to the savings over a decade, the plan would require about $5 million in capital costs to set up new technology to handle a call center and an electronic filings system that would serve all courts. The most noticeable change to the average citizen would be creation of the Circuit Court system, which would meld into one court the judges and staff that work in the current district, family and probate courts. The commission was chaired by Eric Herr, former chief operating officer of
DINE-IN OR TAKE-OUT 356-5001 ......................
Autodesk. He has also served on the Judicial Council and as a member of the Citizen Commission on the Courts. Current Supreme Court Chief Justice Linda Dalianis endorsed the commission’s recommendations. Some aspects of it can be accomplished somewhat quickly, she said. “I think I can confidently say that the Circuit Court, the call center, and probably video arraignment/hearings system would easily be observable after on year, no later than two,” Dalianis said. Development and testing of an electronic e-Court system would take longer, and would have to be perfected before it went into place, she said. Most of the changes require approval by the Legislature, such as the Circuit Court, video trials on minor charges, approval of bonding for capital costs, and moving traffic court offenses to the Department of Safety. A bill creating the Circuit Court is already being drafted. Dalianis said she will personally be involved in talking with lawmakers about the overall plan. “It’s important for the Legislature to understand that the judicial branch is fully behind this idea. One way to make that clear is to have leadership show up,” she said. “It also gives me a chance to get acquainted with the Legislature, to find out their concerns and provide them with answers. I think it’s time well-spent.”

Abolish planning board and commission To the editor: The town of Tamworth held a public hearing Jan. 5 on two petitions. The petitions are to eliminate the planning board and the conservation commission. At that meeting, what struck me most was the arrogance of both the planning board and the conservation commission. As voters got up to speak, if the speaker was in favor of abolishment, then there were smirks, eye rolling and other facial mannerisms by some of the members that showed lack of respect for the speaker. The planning board and the conservation commission members appear arrogant. Nice. Also it was really helpful when Mr. Cunningham stood up to say how good the planning board was and how “ignorant” were the people who wanted to abolish it. Thank you, Mr. Cunningham. We bow before your superiority. It was kindly pointed out by a planning board member that if the planning board was voted out what would the other towns think of us. My, oh my, I am really worried about what Bartlett, or Epsom or Candia think of my vote. And of course, the most interesting thing of all was when a planning board member read a Iong list of all the absolutely horrendous things that will happen if there lis no planning board. It was akin to the earth opening up and swallowing Tamworth, a cloud of locusts descending upon us, a plague spreading over the land and it went on ad infinitum. Actually it all boils down to the story of Chicken
LittIe. We were fed a bunch of Chicken Little threats. Without the planning board and the conservation commission, life will go on using state agencies and the board of selectmen. But the most telling event that night was when two of our senior citizens nearly got into a physical confrontation. Only the yelling of the planning board chairman and the near presence of the police chief kept it in check. If I was a planning board and the conservation commission member and witnessed that sad and appalling scene I would feel that something was really wrong with the relationship of Tamworth voters to the planning board and the conservation commission and maybe, just maybe, the current planning board and conservation commission should be dissolved. But the members can’t see beyond themselves. This is all the more reason for them to be voted out. A solution: The planning board and the conservation commission resign in a spirit of conciliation. That decision would go a long way to mending the divisiveness. Couple the resignation with a proposal to set up a oommittee to re-establish a new planning board and conservation commission that is not so threatening to the people of Tamworth. I believe there is a two-year window in which to do this. It can be done. Think about it. Tamworth will survive. I urge you to please vote to support the abolishment of the Tamworth Planning Board and the abolishment of the Tamworth Conservation Commission. Alexandra Cook South Tamworth

What happened to Ward Bird could happen to any of us To the editor: A man from Moultonborough is serving three years in prison for waving a gun at a lost traveler and threatening her. Why should the public of this state be concerned? First, because this version of events did not take place. Second, because this man’s conviction was based solely on the word of one person against another in a she said/he said situation. My wife, Janet, and I are very worried about what has happened to a very good friend of ours, Ward Bird, and his family. What has galvanized the support of thousands of people for Ward Bird, in New Hampshire and across the nation, is the realization that what happened to Ward, could happen to any of us. Every American citizen should be concerned about this case, regardless of where you place yourself on the political spectrum, because when the facts are boiled down, these are the alarming basics: Christine Harris accused Ward Bird of having committed a felony that carries a mandatory three- to six-year prison term if found guilty. In this particular case: • There was no physical evidence to support the charges. • There were no witnesses to corroborate either side of the story. • It was simply the accuser’s word against the defendant’s word. • No background information was allowed on either the accuser or the defendant in the trial. • At trial, the accuser changed her story three times under oath. She even acknowledged doing so. Quite frankly, Janet and I are per-
plexed as to how this case even made it into court with this complete lack of evidence. It is often reported that the New Hampshire Supreme Court upheld Ward’s conviction. What most people do not understand about the role of the state Supreme Court, is that it does not retry the case, weigh the evidence again or decide guilt or innocence. It simply reviews the court case to make certain there were no improprieties or irregularities as far as procedures go. Janet and I are beseeching our governor and executive council to right this egregious wrong by granting Ward Bird a complete pardon that commutes his sentence and clears his record of his felony conviction. We invite others who are concerned not only for Ward Bird’s situation, but their own potential situations, to write the governor and executive council to express your concerns and support for a complete pardon for Ward. These addresses can be found at www.freewardbird.org by clicking on the “Support” tab. You can also find evidence to the content of both Ward Bird’s and Christine Harris’s characters, trial documents, letters of support and much, much more at this site. When researching this website, you will find that it contains hard facts that are not “spun” in nature. The site is designed to let each individual make an informed decision on where they stand on this issue of justice and fairness. Daniel and Janet Reidy Free Ward Bird Committee Center Sandwich
Hope Marvel will offer insight on achieving excellence To the editor: A few weeks ago I had the opportunity to attend the inaugural meeting of the Mount Washington Valley Coalition of Educational Excellence. Like many first time meetings of an organization, it was full of excited people who had lots of ideas. Some of the ideas were concrete plans, some were just passionate opinions. Was the meeting perfect? Of course not. It was the first ever meeting of an organization. Where the coalition moves from here will be up to how that energy in the room is harnessed and organized so that it can achieve results. There have already been follow up e-mails and the forming of committees as well as a Facebook Group that has grown to 300-plus members very quickly. In other words, some plans of action on what the next steps need to be. I then opened up The Conway Daily Sun and read Bill Marvel’s column on the meeting. He summarized the meeting with the following: “Cash, cheerleading, and speaking no evil
summarized the whole program.” For those of you didn’t get to read Bill’s column, I’ll summarize the them of his column for you: “Been there, done that, won’t work.” There’s lots of positive things and changes that occur in the Valley every day. School-related, not so long ago, we all came together to pass a bond to build a new high school for our children and the valley’s future. There were plenty of people back then who were saying “Been there, done that, won’t work.” Luckily there were lots of other people who could see past that because there are always plenty of reasons why things won’t work. I hope Bill will attend future meetings and offer his insights and opinions on how Educational Excellence can be achieved. That would be positive action. Staying silent at the meeting, taking notes and then writing about the flaws of the group in his newspaper column doesn’t seem to be nearly as productive. Paul Kirsch Madison

Obama now showing a trend of ‘going with the flow’ To the editor: President Obama gave a good talk at the memorial service in Arizona. Some, as I at first thought, were surprised by the tone and the clapping for this occasion. It took a few minutes to figure it out after I heard the first speaker. He set the demeanor of how things would go. I noticed President Obama at first did not clap until he understood the type of memorial that was under way.
He was then quick to pick up the tone and did a good job promoting the situation in a decent way. I don’t think he was comfortable at first, but he has the knack of adapting to situations. President Obama is showing this trend of “going with the flow” after the 2010 elections upset. It’s in preparation for the 2012 presidential elections. Ron Weir Chatham

OSSIPEE—Paula and Steve Moore are among a group of residents trying to drum up interest in Saturday's precinct meeting because West Ossipee's tax rate is already higher than the two other precincts in town, and will go higher if the proposed budget, which is up $47,000 over last year, is passed. The meeting will begin at 10 a.m. at the Jewell Hill Fire Station. Historically, fire precinct meetings are poorly attended. The Moores contend West Ossipee precinct’s tax rate is out of line with the tax rates at Ossipee Corner and Center Ossipee precincts. “All of the rates for county, and school – state and local are identical for all three Ossipee Villages,” wrote Steve and Paula Moore in a letter to The Conway Daily Sun. “The difference comes in the fire precinct rate which for West Ossipee is $3.05 per thousand; for Center Ossipee is $1.20 per thousand; and for Ossipee Corner is $1.77 per thousand.” An owner of a $200,000 home in West Ossipee would pay $610 in precinct taxes. The same home in Center Ossipee would be assessed $240 in precinct taxes. This year, the West Ossipee Fire Precinct is looking for a budget increase of $47,136. Last year’s budget was $491,267 and this year’s proposed budget is $538,403. Fire Precinct Commission chair Henry Ela said he expects there will be lots of changes made at the meeting. And he also predicted many residents will attend. West Ossipee has about 700 residents. "We’ve got to tighten it up to make the taxpayers happy," said Ela who declined to discuss possible changes until the meeting, though he did say there was "fluff" to cut. Steve Moore says he finds it objectionable that in such a bad economy the proposed budget wouldn't be as
lean as possible. "I can't afford fluff," he said. Commissioner Roger Tice said he felt there was some "maneuver room" in the budget. For example, he said the capital outlay (new equipment) line would receive close scrutiny. Also, Tice said, the payroll line item was up $10,000 to a total of $115,000. Firefighters are paid per call and it's impossible to know how many calls the precinct will get in the next year. Commissioner Paul Jay said officials will go through each line item of the budget and then voters will have the chance to approve what's spent. The commissioners would appreciate any suggestions from the public. "We pay taxes too," said Jay. There are several reasons why West Ossipee costs more to run than the other precincts: West Ossipee is the only fire department with two stations. Beginning in 2010, taxpayers had to start paying $50,000 bond payments for the Jewell Hill fire station. West Ossipee residents voted last year to replace firefighters turnout gear and buy all new air packs. Jay said the equipment was too worn. West Ossipee is the only department with a full time chief and part time secretary. West Ossipee Precinct voters approved the Jewell Hill fire station in 2009. In November, of 2009, a consultant group recommended the town merge its three fire precincts. Municipal Resources Inc., of Meredith, stated all three precincts had not made an effort to reduce duplication of apparatus (vehicles) equipment, staffing, and response patterns. The vehicle fleet of all three precincts combine is higher than the national average for communities the size of Ossipee. The report concludes a merger would give Ossipee residents better service at a lower price.
Woman killed in collision with tractor-trailer Thursday MILFORD — Route 101 was closed in Milford on Thursday afternoon after a woman was killed when a tractor-trailer and car collided. Emergency officials said the vehicles collided at Route 101 and Wilton Road about 2:25 p.m. Two people were trapped in the car, and the female driver was pronounced dead at the scene. A male passenger was flown to a Massachusetts hospital. The driver of
the tractor-trailer was not hurt. Police said it would take another few hours to complete their investigation of the crash. They said the tractor-trailer was headed west on Route 101 and the car was turning onto Route 101 from Wilton Road when the collision occurred. Police said the intersection has traffic signals but they aren’t sure who had the right of way. —Courtesy of WMUR

GUINTA from page one
He said not only hasn’t he seen any benefits from the new law, but his health insurance bill has gone up. ”I have seen a seven and a half percent jump in my health insurance premiums as of Jan. 1. That was driven directly by the mandate from the bill on top of a six percent increase from last year,” he said. Guinta was a cosponsor of a bill seeking its repeal that passed through the House on Wednesday by a vote of 245-189. Three Democrats also sided with the Republican caucus, down from 34 House Democrats who voted against the law last year. ”I thought it was a very significant vote and important one,” Guinta said Thursday from his office in Washington. “I was the co-sponsor of the legislation primarily because I didn’t feel it was constitutional and I didn’t feel it met the objective of lowering costs for people and businesses. Finally, I opposed the law because the cost was so significant in adding to our deficit. ”... Now we’ll begin the process of coming up with a replacement (bill),” he added. “We voted (Thursday morning) to get up a schedule for committees to come up with proposals.” Wednesday’s vote has been deemed mostly for show, because realistically, the repeal won’t go anywhere, the popular Website Politico reports. The Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid has already said he would not allow the repeal bill on the Senate floor. “The Republicans have to understand that the healthcare bill is not going to be repealed,” he said. House Republican leaders have challenged Reid to give the bill a vote since Democrats, who control the chamber, have little to fear. ”I think the Senate has an absolute obligation to bring this to the floor,” Guinta said. “Every individual, be they a representative or a senator, has an opportunity to listen to the American people. The country is not in favor of this legislation. Harry Reid absolutely should bring this to the floor, it’s what the American people want from us. We have to do what people ask us to do. Quite frankly, if the Senate wants to ignore what the people ask us to do, it sends the wrong message. If enough people say let’s have a vote it may change (Reid’s) mind.” When asked if there was anything in the law he liked, Guinta said he viewed it as unconstitutional. “This mandate to purchase something is just wrong,” he said. “We need to explore buying insurance across state lines, that would immediately help people and businesses. ”Carl Thibideau and T-Enterprises is an example of how the bill itself is onerous,” Guinta continued. “He shared with me the costs and challenges this law has placed on his business. He conveyed that if he were able
Rep. Frank Guinta
to purchase (a health insurance) plan from another state that it would be significantly cheaper. I think the best way to help people like Carl and businesses like T-Enterprises is to create competition and bring more choices to them.” Thibideau, who has 25 employees with 21 of those receiving health insurance, said his health premiums would be 60 percent lower if he lived in Arizona. ”It doesn’t contain the mandates that I face here in New Hampshire,” he said and explained some of those he face. “Now I have to pay for alcohol and drug rehab, we’re a skill trade, I don’t want it or need it. ”Of my 21 employees who are on my insurance policy,” he continued, “four are women. Three of those are beyond childbearing years and the other has absolutely no desire to have children yet every month I have to buy maternity insurance, another mandate.” New Hampshire Voices for Health, a network of consumer and advocacy organizations and individuals allied in their commitment to securing quality, affordable health care for all in New Hampshire, was disappointed Congressman Guinta and Charlie Bass voted for the repeal. ”We are disappointed in the vote but do not anticipate repeal efforts to go far,” said NH Voices for Health Director Lisa Kaplan Howe stated in a release issued Wednesday night. “Repealing the new health law would harm New Hampshire families and small businesses by putting at risk benefits that they are already receiving under the law. The new health law takes important and needed step forward in strengthening New Hampshire’s health care system, creating a stronger foundation to build on.” ”The new health law is already benefitting the families and small businesses of New Hampshire,” she continued. “A number of the consumer protections and other benefits under see GUINTA page 10

the law have already gone into effect and are poised to have a widespread impact in New Hampshire. New Hampshire small businesses have already started receiving the benefit of tax credits to help offset the high cost of health coverage that previously burdened their budgets. Over 19,000 New Hampshire businesses are eligible for these tax credits, which will help them ensure their employees have the coverage they need to remain healthy and productive members of their workforce. Thanks to the health care law, our families no longer have to worry about being denied coverage because of a pre-existing condition, or being dropped from insurance coverage if we get sick. These are provisions that strengthen our overall health care system and are things we can all agree on.” The network according to its Website "represents over 200,000 members, consumers and constituents statewide who are motivated to help improve access to quality, affordable health care in New Hampshire." "I've not seen any benefits," Thibideau said. "Another thing this bill does is it prevents me from forming a large group with 20 or so other machine shops to buy a more costeffective plan. We're not allowed to to that. ... Are you familiar with the 1099 forms? If you spend more than $600 for a contractor you must send in a 1099. Now, under this mandate, a business no bigger than me, has to fill out a 1099 for everything from $2 to $2 million. (Laughing) I'm going to have to send out over 100 of them, it's a waste of timber. (President Barack) Obama has his hand in my pocket way too far." Thibideau, who pays $114,000 a year to insure his employees, could actually save money by breaking the law. "If I don't have health insurance for my employees I'll be fined $2,000 per person per year," he said. "I'm paying $6,000 per person now. You do the math, what am I better off doing?
If this isn't a ploy to nationalize health care I've never heard of one in my life. The mandates and stupidity just go on and on." Thibideau even tried to offer a solution. Last year he proposed legislation which then state representative Tom Buco took to the New Hampshire House of Representatives. "There should be a base policy for X, X and X," he said. "And then, if you want maternity it's so much extra or if you want drug and alcohol it costs you cost you this much more. I put a bill forward last year with Rep. Buco and it went down in flames; it never even got out of committee. "... If you followed this bill at all," Thibideau continued, "it was slammed down America's throats in 90 to 120 days. This is a 2,700 page bill. You can't read, digest and do anything you have to do to be a congressman in 120 days, there just wasn't the time. What we need to have happen is we need the doctors and insurance companies at the same table and say, 'Ladies and gentlemen what can we do to reduce the cost of health care?' At this point I don't think that's ever been done." Guinta has been appointed to the Oversight and Government Reform Committee; the Transportation and Infrastructure Committee; and was named vice chairman of the TARP (Troubled Asset Relief Program) Financial Services and Bailouts of Public and Private Program. In three weeks in Washington, Guinta has been able to draw some similarities to his former role as mayor of Manchester. "One of the benefits I'm able to draw from is my legislative and executive experience," he said, "and that means being efficient and prudent with taxpayer dollars. There are some similarities. I was known as an efficiency guy as mayor and I always wanted to justify the dollars we are spending and still want to do that here. "... It really is an honor to be here and to do the things I'm doing," see next page

Tin Mountain hosts winter tree identification program ALBANY — Tin Mountain director and forest ecologist Dr. Michael Cline will conduct a class on winter tree and shrub identification on Saturday, Jan. 22, from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Cline will present the necessary background before heading onto the forests of Tin Mountain’s Rockwell Sanctuary to test participants’ skills. Learning to identify trees in winter can be challenging, but with a few tips and a little practice, participants will find that leaves are optional when it comes to recognizing trees in the forest. “Each tree species has its own distinguishing characteristics aside from leaves that make winter identification relatively easy if you know for what to look,” Cline said. “It might be the color of a bud, the pattern of the bark, the arrangement of branches, or even the smell of the wood. It’s an easy and painless process to learn the trees in their winter attire.” It is a day-long course, so participants are urged to bring lunch, sturdy/dry footwear, and a hand lens if possible. Those attending will receive the color-illustrated Centennial Edition of Forest Trees of Maine. Cost is $25 for members and $30 for non-members. To learn more about Tin Mountain call 447-6991, e-mail info@tinmountain.org, log onto www.tinmountain. org or click on the Tin Mountain facebook page.
Abby Miller, a sophomore at Kennett High School, has dreams of being a professional singer and is being proactive in making it happen. Miller, who in December performed as part of Alpenglow at Radio City Music Hall, recently went to the week-long International Presentation of Performers (iPOP) convention in Los Angeles. She joined other kids from all over the world to get the chance to perform in front of agents, casting directors and record labels. At the end of the week she wound up with a manager in New York and is working with a record label in Los Angeles. What was the process like? I've been in an agency in Boston for about six months and they are the ones that you audition with to go down [to the convention]. Then they bring in coaches to train you. There's a group of 30 of us and every weekend we travel down to Boston and we just start training and going over monologues and commercials. I had to have two songs to sing on the big stage, so it was a lot of work, but it was worth it. What were these auditions like? You could either do acting, singing, modeling, dancing. I did acting and singing. I needed two songs and a minute cut of them so I sang "Cowboy Casanova" and "Somebody to Love." I also needed a monologue, a commercial, a TV beauty commercial and a scene, so it is a lot of stuff. You were there for a week, was it intensive? We didn't get to go outside. The whole convention is in this big hotel. You're just up in your room for maybe 10 minutes and then down doing an audition and then going to practice and then doing another audition or going to watch someone do an audition. Yeah, it is crazy. see next page

Shinnying around at Whitney’s, er, Whitneys’ BY TOM EASTMAN THE CONWAY DAILY SUN
JACKSON — Sheer joy. Some of the happiest times of my youth involved a cleared pond and a brilliant winter’s day, along with a puck, a hockey stick, and two pair of boots, both set six feet apart on the ice as makeshift goals. Under the golden light of the day, six or so of us would skate until we were ready to drop, re-enacting every Bobby Orr shinny move we could emulate. Now, in an ode to those days gone by, Whitneys’ Village Inn is to present the
from preceding page
When did you get interested in performance? I started realizing I wanted to sing in second grade, but I really started to make a change in my life about two years ago and that is when we started looking for a place that could help me do that. When did you get hooked up with Mary Bastoni-Rebmann? I think it was like two years ago. She's just changed my voice completely. Made me a different singer. I owe it all to her. What are your hopes with this new manager? I write my own songs, so singing is my passion. I would do acting to get into singing, but really in the future I'd like to just sing, so with this new guy in L.A. we're recording my songs and making demos to send to bigger labels to get me into a bigger industry. My dream would be to be able to sing my songs on a big stage. Would you consider moving out to L.A.? Absolutely. My whole family is for it, not necessarily right now, but eventually. The only one I'd worry about is
first annual Naukabout Hockey Tournament Saturday, Jan. 22. “We’re hoping we’ll have up to eight four-person teams, with three players on a side at a time out on the ice,” Don Bilger, proprietor of the landmark inn, said. He said this weekend will be plenty of cold, making it great for ice hockey. “Whitneys’ years ago had a rink between the inn and the tennis courts, and we’ve flooded it. It’s a 40- by 79-foot rink,” Don said. Pond hockey tournies have been popular in recent years in Meredith,
with 40 teams competing last year. “We’re hoping there will be a good turnout. We’ll start at 11 a.m. Saturday and play up until 9 p.m., with breaks. We’ll have an apres hockey party with food and beer. If we get enough teams, the championship will be Sunday morning,” Don said. Helmets, shinguards, and hockey gloves are required. Special pond hockey goals are being borrowed from the Ham Ice Arena in Conway: they’re six inches high and two feet wide. Cost is $100 per person for the teams of four, with the entry to include
my little brother because he still goes to school here, so it is kind of a hard thing. But I'd definitely go out there in a heartbeat. You released a Christmas album, so what was that like? We worked on this album for two months and I'd go after soccer practices and go down to Madison and we did an eight-song Christmas CD. It was a fund-raiser to get to L.A. It was awesome. It was my first real recording experience. It was a lot of work staring at a little room for three hours a night, but it was really great. It wound up being a good CD and we sold a lot of them. How have you been balancing singing and all that with school work? Well, I actually have mid-terms this week, so it is a little bit stressful to try to catch up on tests and learn things before mid-terms, but in the end I want singing to be my career, so I am going to focus on school, but also know what all this is for — singing — so you've got to find a happy medium. Have you had any encouragement at Kennett? Have you had any teachers that have really been motivational?
I'd say I usually get pretty close with a lot of my teachers. They've all been for it and excited and telling me to not be worried about the work I'm going to miss, but to go and take advantage of this opportunity. I also got a lot of support from peers, which was nice. Like I'll walk down the hallway and hear people yell "Superstar!" so that's fun too. Everyone was really supportive so that was really nice to see. Are you exploring the social media side of things like putting yourself on YouTube or doing anything like that? Not yet. We are working on getting my songs copyrighted and then that would be the next step would be putting them out everywhere. We are talking about sending things to the Ellen Degeneres show. I am going to be doing Skype lessons with a vocal coach in L.A., so we are starting to branch out that way, but it is how we want to go about that we aren't really sure of. When you were out there meeting all these people, seeing all these agents, did you get a lot of positive feedback? Yeah, it was really nice, especially for my parents to be able to go out and
Re
JCT. RTES. 302 & 16 NORTH CONWAY
get information that they wondered from actual industry professionals, so that was really cool. To get feedback from your performance, they'd have workshops that you'd go to and you'd sing your song and they'd say, OK, your physicality was good, but you need to work on your face expressions or you need to work this part of the stage more. It is really good to hear from people that do it every day. Did everyone who went wind up with something? It is really rare for a whole agency to get a 100 percent call-back rate and ours did, for the second year in a row, which was really cool. It is nice to see that your friends are successful. Usually people don't and that's sad to watch kids who will be crying, but it is all about determination. Was it encouraging to get that reward? Yeah, it is always going to be encouraging to hear "Yeah, we think you're good." You know, it is not just your family that thinks you're good, these strangers are saying "Yeah, we want to work with you and develop you and hopefully get you out there." It is really encouraging.

Farmer Edwin Moody and Phil Robertson, then of the Goodrich Falls Electric Company, installed the rope tow — one of the country’s first — in 1935. The two would be a good customer, after all, for the power company. (Robertson later went on to work at Cranmore and then Attitash, scoring an unparallelled trifecta of the local ski scene). Bill and Betty Whitney bought the inn in fall 1936, and named it Whitneys’. That’s possessive plural, Betty once related to me, because “it took two of us to make a go of it.” It was the same winter that Carroll Reed established the Eastern Slope Ski School in Jackson Village. The following ski season, Bill Whitney — who was a Tufts University graduate — retrofitted Moody’s and Robertson’s rope tow. He turned the bullwheel horizontal, and ordered 72 shovel handles from Sears Roebuck Company. Bill applied the handles to the rope, making it easier for skiers to hang onto the moving rope as they got pulled up the hill. By making the bullwheel horizontal, the rope didn’t get caught up. Pioneering skiers flocked to Jackson in those days, whi-
teknuckling their way as they snowplowed down Whitneys’ Slope out behind the inn, late ski historian Dick May once related to me. The Whitneys developed Black Mountain in 1948. The ski area is now owned and operated by the Fichera family, which stresses affordability in all its skiing programs, while the inn has undergone several ownership changes over the years. ••• Fresh after some major inn renovations in recent years since buying the inn, owners Don and Joyce Bilger are continuing Whitneys’ proud tradition (even though I notice that the sign now says Whitney’s: Betty — who died at age 102 — would surely have a problem with that, but not the hospitality). Yours truly stopped by the inn’s rustic and cozy Shovel Handle Pub after skiing last Saturday, and enjoyed the apres ski entertainment, provided by old UNH college friend Tim Gurshin of Canterbury. The acoustics were great, as was the ambience in the former barn. Kudos to restaurant manager Michelle Doyle for making it all seem so effortless, and inviting. Best of all was the succulent food prepared by creative chef and longtime friend Seammus McGrath. I had the port cheese penne pasta with shrimp (tossed in a spicy port cheese sauce, roasted red peppers and asparagus); my friend Ellen had an unbelievably juicy pistachioencrusted salmon (pan-seared and served over a dill cream sauce). The service by waiter Patrick DeAngelo could not have been more personable, or right on the money. Eric Erskine and Cliff

THE CONWAY DAILY SUN, Friday, January 21, 2011— Page 17
Movie Review: ‘The Green Hornet’ The latest incarnation of "The Green Hornet," a vigilante hero that dates back to 1930s radio, is a diverting, often clever entertainment that, given the talent involved, could've been something truly special. "The Green Hornet" is directed by Michel Gondry, an imaginative music video director who has made such visually interesting and quirky films as "Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind" and "Be Kind Rewind." Actor Seth Rogen, who stars as the titular hero, and writing partner Evan Goldberg wrote the screenplay and bring the same kind of slacker humor that worked so well in their scripts for "Superbad" and "Pineapple Express." Rogen and Goldberg are also producers on the film and their sensibilities may have forced out some of Gondry's personality because this definitely feels more like a Seth Rogan film than a Michel Gondry film. This is too bad as the Rogan/Gondry combination is an intriguing one. There are indeed inspired moments sprinkled throughout the film that point to the stranger, more idiosyncratic film this could've been. The script does come at the material from a subversive slant that gives the film a different flavor than most superhero films. The film is almost a satire of the genre, but it loses steam when it goes on auto pilot and becomes a rather routine action picture. Originally, the character of Britt Reid was a newspaper publisher by day and masked vigilante by night who was always aided by his trusted
Reel Reviews ––––– Alec Kerr
confidant Kato (played here by Taiwanese pop star Jay Chou). In this version Reid is the slacker son of a newspaper publisher (Tom Wilkinson), who inherits the job when his father dies from a bee sting. Kato was played by none-otherthan Bruce Lee in the short lived 1960s TV version of "The Green Hornet." The series was an early showcase for Lee's fighting prowess. One of the unintentional jokes of the series was that it was really Kato that did all the true heroics while the Green Hornet got all the credit. This new spin on the characters acknowledges this disparity and plays off it. Reid becomes a well intentioned, but ineffectual schlub of a hero. Kato is not only a martial artist master, but a genius inventor who tricks out their ride, the Black Beauty, with all sort of fun bells and whistles including, quite hilariously, a turntable. The jealousy that begins to build between the duo — culminating with an amusing brawl — is the best thing about this film. Similarly, the villain is written with a humorous twist. Christophe Waltz, whose villainy in Quentin Tarantino's "Inglourious Basterds" won him an Academy Award, plays an aging Russian drug kingpin who is having a midlife crisis. He doesn't take it well when people say he is no longer scary. He is open to constructive criticism, but those who give it are not likely to

live to see another day. Waltz is in danger of become typecast as baddies, which is a shame because he is so good at adding color and shading to his characterization. As with "Inglourious Basterds," he creates a villain that is intimidating and yet oddly likable. Cameron Diaz appears as a potential love interest for Rogen and Chou, but it is an underwritten role. Writing for women is one of Rogen and Goldberg's limitations. They are great at writing male bonding banter, but write women from the point of view of awkward geeks. Consequently, there is little chemistry between either of the male leads and Diaz. Rogen and Chou do have chemistry and their playful giveand-take is fun. Which brings us to Gondry. There are moments where his personality as a filmmaker comes shining through. In a scene early in the film Rogen raids his father's expansive garage and fools around with a woman in every car. It is played in high speed and gets a huge laugh. Much later in the film, Gondry does a visually clever variation of the splitting of the screen as news spreads from one person to two to three and so on. Gondry also handles the fight scenes well. He employs slow motion, a cliché at this point, but manages to keep it fresh by making the action clear and allowing us to see the logic behind the fighting. Overall, having Gondry as a director seems like a missed opportunity. Had his imagination run unchecked the film could've left a lasting sting.

"This is a dream," she said. "This is Martin Luther King Day, a day of dreams. This is a small local dream but it is a very important dream to the people who love this mountain." Breen said when the Mittersill ski area closed in 1984 it was a really hard thing for the people who called it their home hill, and it was a really sad thing when your home hill becomes one of the Lost Ski Areas of New England. But Mittersill has been found again, and a new chapter in its history begins.

Conservation project benefits local farmer, school, and town of Tamworth Entering Tamworth from the west on Route 25, you may see Hereford cattle grazing in a long field stretching back to the steep slopes of Little Larcom in the Ossipee Mountains or in a pasture stretching north to the Bearcamp River. Much of this land is Bearcamp Valley Farm, belonging to Bob and Joanne Floyd. Joanne grew up in Wonalancet, and Bob, now 78, is a lifelong South Tamworth resident. He has farmed the land his whole life, growing hay and other crops, raising beef, and harvesting timber with horses. Now, through the generosity of more than 20 individuals, 19 acres of the farm — the “Beaver Brook Lot” — has been conserved. Northeast of the intersection of Routes 113 and 25, this lot is bordered by 1,200 feet of the Bearcamp River and 700 feet of Beaver Brook. Ned Beecher, Chair of the Tamworth Conservation Commission explains: “Bob Floyd came to us wanting to conserve the land he has worked his whole life, but he could not afford to give it away. Yet, even in these challenging economic times, with the help of generous private donors we worked out a win-win solution. Bob received income from the sale; The Community School was willing to assume ownership and to grant a conservation easement to the town of Tamworth as long as it did not burden the school financially. And the Town and its residents gained the preservation of this wild frontage on Route 25 and Bearcamp River.” The Community School is a private non-sectarian co-educational day school serving students, grades 6 to 12, from 15 towns in central New Hampshire and western Maine. It occupies an expanded

house on the former Perkins Farm and integrates farming and environmental stewardship into its educational programs. In summer, the school grows and sells produce at farmers’ markets and through a community supported agriculture program (CSA). Jenny Rowe, the school’s director, and Cynthia Robinson, chair of the school’sboard, worked diligently with a committee of the commission to complete the transfer of the land. The final step in the process will involve the school granting to the town of Tamworth a conservation easement, which will preserve the land as open space in perpetuity, while allowing for public access, active forest management, and agricultural activities. “The school was not looking to increase its real estate,” said director Jenny Rowe. “This is something extra for us to handle at a time when, like other institutions, we are working extra hard just to weather the economic downturn. But it was the right thing to do. Sometimes, opportunities come at inopportune times. And we are honored to have been chosen to be stewards of this land.” Robinson added: “One of the reasons we decided that owning this property was worth the extra responsibility and tax burden, is that it provides the school some frontage on Route 25, providing increased visibility for our farm and garden operations. It may help to have a sign or part of our farm stand out there.” The conservation value of Beaver Brook Lot was evaluated by the commission with help from the local volunteer Bearcamp Trackers. The lot’s wooded shorelands are a corridor used by many animals, providing sheltered access to crossing of busy Route 25. It is
the eastern-most parcel of Floyd’s farm, much of which fronts on the Bearcamp River, and it abuts more than 300 acres of Community School property that is already protected by conservation easement. It is considered important in the larger effort of sustaining wildlife connectivity between the Sandwich Range of the White Mountain National Forest to the north and the Ossipee Mountains just to the south. “In 2009,” said Beecher, “the commission adopted a focus of accepting conservation easements preserving the mosaic of forests and open areas connecting the Ossipees and Sandwich Range, and this stretch along Route 25 is critical to that goal.” Discussions about the conservation of Bearcamp Valley Farm began a year ago. The committee consulted with a variety of agricultural and land protection organizations before deciding to focus, for the time being, on just the Beaver Brook Lot. “Through the efforts of many hard-working people, the whole thing came together literally at the last minute,” said Beecher. “I’d like to especially thank wildlife ecologist Chris Conrod, project advisors David White and Theresa Swanick, and committee members John Mersfelder, Chele Miller, Nelson O’Bryan, and Kate Thompson. Real estate professional Gerard Costantino provided critical support through the process, leading to the December 30th closing. Working with the school and Mr. Floyd has been a pleasure. And most importantly, we thank the anonymous donors out there in our community, who made this possible.” Mr. Floyd is continuing discussions with the ommission regarding conserving his other lands.

By Holiday Mathis soon emerge to help you move a mountain that’s in your way. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Everything is cyclical. Just because you feel a certain way now doesn’t mean you’ll feel that way forever. The older you get the more you can appreciate all that’s carried inside of a single moment. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). An old friend will return to you. You will see something different in this person now -- something that was there all along but took awhile to fully develop. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). A deal you made long ago is about to expire. You can go on as you were, or you can make a new arrangement. Tonight: A mere flirtation turns into a more serious game. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Spring is more than a season. It’s a metaphor for what is coming in your life. Under the cold ground there is a dormant seed that will soon break through and grow to mighty proportions. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Sacrifices have been made. Now you’ll continue the process of determining which ones were worthwhile and which ones you wouldn’t make again. Be shrewd in your assessment. TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Jan. 21). You have a special brilliance, and it shines this year for all to see. Family makes you proud in February. A teacher leads you to productivity and money in March. There’s an investment in April that pays off in July. Your creativity attracts a partner in June, and together you will succeed in business and art. Leo and Scorpio people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 4, 12, 14, 23 and 16.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). One of the many things people love about you is that you’re quick to laugh. Someone will work to make you do so, and you will interpret the effort as a sign of deep personal interest. And you will be correct. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). There may be disharmony in your personal life, and yet it affects you in a good way. You use the energy produced by this conflict to do something excellent for yourself and the other person. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Be kind. Remind yourself of all you’ve done well lately. Make a list. Anything you can do to reinforce your sense of personal value will ready you for the opportunity that arises this weekend. CANCER (June 22-July 22). You will be slightly more transparent today. So you may as well tell someone that you are angry with him, because your actions, tone and body language are already sending the signal. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). If you volunteer, you’ll be praised in the moment, but that moment will pass. And then you’ll be expected to work and be responsible for the results. If that’s the fun part for you, then you’re volunteering for the right thing. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You are willing to add layers of knowledge and style to your lifestyle in order to fit into a certain social group. You’re not sure exactly who these sophisticated, glamorous people are yet, but you know you’ll fit right in. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). It may be calm this morning, but there is something building deep within you -- a strong and passionate energy that will

THE CONWAY DAILY SUN, Friday, January 21, 2011— Page 23
Today is Friday, Jan. 21, the 21st day of 2011. There are 344 days left in the year. Today’s Highlight in History: On Jan. 21, 1861, Jefferson Davis of Mississippi and four other Southerners whose states had seceded from the Union resigned from the U.S. Senate. On this date: In 1793, during the French Revolution, King Louis XVI, condemned for treason, was executed on the guillotine. In 1911, Sen. Robert M. La Follette of Wisconsin announced creation of the National Progressive Republican League with the goal of promoting “popular government and progressive legislation.” In 1915, the first Kiwanis Club was founded, in Detroit. In 1950, former State Department official Alger Hiss, accused of being part of a Communist spy ring, was found guilty in New York of lying to a grand jury. (Hiss, who proclaimed his innocence, served less than four years in prison.) George Orwell (Eric Blair), author of “Nineteen Eighty-Four,” died in London at age 46. In 1954, the first atomic submarine, the USS Nautilus, was launched at Groton (GRAH’-tuhn), Conn. In 1968, the Battle of Khe Sanh began during the Vietnam War as North Vietnamese forces attacked a U.S. Marine base; the Americans were able to hold their position until the siege was lifted 2 1/2 months later. In 1970, the Boeing 747 went on its first commercial flight as Pan Am passengers traveled from New York to London. In 1976, the supersonic Concorde jet was put into service by Britain and France. One year ago: Former Democratic presidential candidate John Edwards finally admitted fathering a child during an affair before his second White House bid. Toyota recalled 2.3 million U.S. vehicles to fix accelerator pedals. Today’s Birthdays: Actress Ann Wedgeworth is 77. World Golf Hall of Famer Jack Nicklaus is 71. Opera singer Placido Domingo is 70. Singer Richie Havens is 70. Singer Mac Davis is 69. Actress Jill Eikenberry is 64. Country musician Jim Ibbotson is 64. Singer-songwriter Billy Ocean is 61. Commerce Secretary Gary Locke is 61. Attorney General Eric Holder is 60. Microsoft co-founder Paul Allen is 58. Actor-director Robby Benson is 55. Actress Geena Davis is 55. Basketball Hall of Famer Hakeem Olajuwon is 48. Actress Charlotte Ross is 43. Actor John Ducey is 42. Actress Karina Lombard is 42. Rapper Levirt (B-Rock and the Bizz) is 41. Rock musician Mark Trojanowski (Sister Hazel) is 41. Rock singersongwriter Cat Power is 39. Rock DJ Chris Kilmore (Incubus) is 38. Actor Vincent Laresca is 37. Singer Emma Bunton (Spice Girls) is 35. Country singer Phil Stacey is 33. Actress Izabella Miko (MEE’-koh) is 30.

Help Wanted by Abigail Van Buren
GRIEVING MOM GETS NO RESPITE FROM WELL-MEANING FRIENDS DEAR ABBY: My adult son passed away nine months ago. I am mostly numb. My home has always been welcoming, and I have had friends and family here constantly -- but now they won’t leave! They don’t seem to “get” the fact that I need some time to be alone. I love these people, but my heart is broken. The only person I want to see and spend time with is my surviving son. I have lost my enthusiasm for almost everything. I work full time and no longer want to be the “hostess.” I am TIRED. My sons and I were close, and I raised them by myself. How do I tell my friends and family members that I need to be alone without offending them? I want to do the right thing. -- HEARTBROKEN IN CORPUS CHRISTI, TEXAS DEAR HEARTBROKEN: Please accept my deepest sympathy for your loss. I’m sure your friends and family care deeply about you and are only trying to be there for you. However, you need to heal as best as you can in your own way from the death of your son. Thank them for their constant support, and explain that you need some time to be alone and cope with this without a crowd around. They will understand. Working your way through the grieving process can be exhausting. But if your “tiredness” persists, I’m advising you to discuss it with your doctor because it can be a symptom of chronic depression, which is a medical condition. DEAR ABBY: I’m a friendly, outgoing cashier at a grocery store. I enjoy chatting with customers. I particularly like some of them and look forward to them coming in. The problem is what I should do when they ask me for personal information,
like my phone number or Facebook information. In the last month, two customers asked to be my friends on Facebook and one asked for my phone number. I don’t feel comfortable sharing this information with them. It’s important for me to have a private life kept separate from my work life. What is a polite way to let them know I don’t want to give out that information? -- FACEBOOK-UNFRIENDLY IN LOVELAND, COLO. DEAR FACEBOOK-UNFRIENDLY: Smile at the customer and, in your usual upbeat, friendly way, say: “You know, I think you are very nice -- but I keep my work life and personal life separate. I never mix the two. But thanks for asking.” Period. DEAR ABBY: My 12-year-old daughter, “Sophia,” repeatedly shirks her basic responsibilities. She routinely receives detention for not completing homework assignments and for failing to bring required materials to class. Despite my concern, Sophia continues with her usual shortcomings. This is causing a great deal of stress between us, and our relationship is now very poor. Should I keep pushing her or should I just allow her to fail? -- DISAPPOINTED MOM IN LOUISIANA DEAR DISAPPOINTED MOM: Of course you shouldn’t allow your daughter to fail. All mothers have to “push” sometimes. It goes with the territory. However, rather than letting it drive you and your daughter apart, talk with her teacher and see if she or he can give you some insight as to what’s going on. If that doesn’t help, then consult Sophia’s pediatrician. The girl may have a neurological problem that’s causing her behavior.
