Freedom school principal resigns
Board meets today to discuss replacement BY DAYMOND STEER THE CONWAY DAILY SUN
Rt. 16/302 Intervale, NH
FREEDOM -- Elementary school principal Corinne Rocco has resigned to take a job in another town. The school board will have a special meeting with staff about finding a replacement for her at 4 p.m. Wednesday. Superintendent Jay McIntire said Rocco’s resignation went to the board on Thursday. McIntire said Rocco gave him notice the week before. McIntire would only confirm that Rocco had taken another position out of town. “She will not be back in the building. She has moved on,” said McIntire on Tuesday morning. “Everyone wishes her the best.” The school board could have held Rocco for 30 days but chose not to do that, said McIntire. Rocco started at Freedom Elementary on July 1, 2005. Prior to becoming principal, Rocco spent six years as assistant principal at the Molly Ockett Middle School in Fryeburg. She had also been a teacher at Josiah Bartlett Elementary School in Bartlett.

Elementary school principals want full day kindergarten BY LLOYD JONES THE CONWAY DAILY SUN
CONWAY — All three elementary school principals are proposing adding all-day kindergarten at their schools. They presented a united front before the Conway School Board Monday evening and are seeking to
put a warrant article on the ballot next April for voters to consider. The estimated cost is $170,931 for three teachers at $55,477 and $1,500 per school for supplies and equipment. see KINDERGARTEN page 9
At age 72, Brown will get $1,000 a week for 20 years BY TOM EASTMAN THE CONWAY DAILY SUN
CONWAY — Retired for nearly five years from his job as a shift supervisor for the data clinic at the Lahey Center, Chris Brown, 72, of Lamplighters Trailer Park stepped forward Monday afternoon to announce to state lottery officials that he was the lucky winner of Friday’s Tri-State Weekly Grand drawing. A native of Marblehead, Mass., who moved to Conway after retirement, Brown bought the winning ticket at Shaw’s Supermarket in Redstone. Acting on the advice of his brother, who he described as a very successful insurance businessman, the affable Brown said Tuesday that despite his retirement age, he is opting to collect $1,000 a week before taxes for the next 20 years rather than go for a onetime lump sum amount of $600,000 before taxes. see LOTTERY page 10

Bishops open ‘Religious Liberty’ drive BALTIMORE (NY Times) — The nation’s Roman Catholic bishops opened a new front in their fight against abortion and samesex marriage on Monday, recasting their opposition as a struggle for “religious liberty” against a government and a culture that are infringing on the church’s rights. The bishops have expressed increasing exasperation as more states have legalized same-sex marriage, and the Justice Department has refused to go to bat for the Defense of Marriage Act, legislation that established the definition of marriage as between a man and a woman. “We see in our culture a drive to neuter religion,” Archbishop Timothy M. Dolan of New York, president of the bishops conference, said in a news conference Monday at the bishops’ annual meeting in Baltimore. He added that “well-financed, well-oiled sectors” were trying “to push religion back into the sacristy.” Archbishop Dolan also came prepared to answer questions about the sexualabuse scandal at Penn State University, which has reminded so many observers of the Catholic Church’s own abuse scandal. He said that the accusations against a former university football coach were a reminder that sexual abuse is a universal problem that affects most institutions.

Judge backs camping ban at protest site ––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– WORLD/NATION–––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––
NEW YORK (NY Times) — Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg on Tuesday defended his decision to clear the park in Lower Manhattan that was the birthplace of the Occupy Wall Street movement, saying that health and safety conditions had become “intolerable” in the park, where the protesters had camped out for nearly two months. Bloomberg said the city had planned to reopen the park on Tuesday morning
after the protesters’ tents and tarps had been removed and the park’s stone steps had been cleaned. He said the police had already let about 50 protesters back in when officials received word of a temporary restraining order sought by lawyers for the protesters. The police closed the park again while a judge heard arguments in State Supreme Court. But late Tuesday afternoon, the judge
Philippines navigates rocky Chinese relations PALAWAN, Philippines (NY Times)— The rhetorical missiles fired by a state-owned Chinese newspaper late last month landed squarely on the shores of this westernmost province and a few dozen kilometers from the coral reefs and scrub-covered islets claimed by China, the Philippines and a number of other nations. “If these countries don’t want to change their ways with China, they will need to prepare for the sound of cannons,” wrote the unapologetically nationalistic Global Times, referring to the 750 islands and
spits of land in the South China Sea, known as the Spratly Islands, which are also contested by Brunei, Malaysia, Taiwan and Vietnam. The following day, a riposte of sorts crackled on the sugar-white sands of Palawan as hundreds of American and Philippine Marines were disgorged from rubber dinghies and stormed into the adjacent jungle with machine guns blazing. It may have been a drill, but the symbolism was not lost on the throng of Filipino journalists on the beach for the occasion.
Death toll mounts in Syria
BEIRUT, Lebanon (NY Times) — As foreign pressure intensified on the Syrian government on Tuesday, rights activists said that the death toll from violent clashes there on Monday was much higher than first reported. They estimated that 50 to 71 people were killed, including 34 soldiers in clashes with army defectors. The total nearly matched the 72 deaths on April 22, the bloodiest day of the Syria uprising so far. The scope and severity of the latest violence came to light as the Syria government announced it had released 1,180 prisoners, in what appeared to be an effort to show flexibility and sincerity only hours before the Arab League was set to suspend Syria as punishment for President Bashar alAssad’s repression of dissent. A terse announcement of the prisoner release by the official news agency, Sana, said only that the freed prisoners had been “involved in recent events” and had not committed murder. Rights activists confirmed that the freed prisoners included Kamal Labwani, a prominent lawyer halfway through a 15-year incarceration for having insulted Assad.

ruled for the city, saying the protesters could go into Zuccotti Park but could not take their tents and sleeping bags. The judge, Justice Michael D. Stallman, said the demonstrators “have not demonstrated that they have a First Amendment right to remain in Zuccotti Park, along with their tents, structures, generators and other installations,” to the exclusion of the landlord or “others who might wish to use the space safely.”

Closing arguments made in Martel murder trial MANCHESTER — Defense attorneys said in closing arguments Tuesday that a former Manchester woman acted in self-defense in an incident that left her friend dead of stab wounds. Molly Martel was charged with second-degree murder in the stabbing death of Stephanie Campbell last year. Defense lawyers spent much of their time telling the jury that Martel acted in self-defense and that the state’s case is riddled with inconsistencies and lies. Attorney Charles Keefe pointed to holes in the state’s story, including one witness the defense claims tailored his testimony for authorities in order to get a favorable deal on other charges. Keefe told the jury that Campbell was the one looking for a fight on Nov. 2, 2010. He said Campbell thought Martel was romantically involved with her ex-boyfriend and that Campbell, not Martel, was armed with a knife when the two began to fight. Defense lawyers said Campbell’s
four stab wounds are consistent with Martel grabbing onto her arm and fighting to get the knife away from her. But prosecutors said Campbell was expecting a fistfight, and Martel was the one who pulled the weapon. They pointed to testimony that none of the state’s witnesses saw Campbell armed before the fight, while several people testified that Martel regularly carried a knife. Prosecutors said Martel also fled after the stabbing, drove to upstate New York, used cash to check into a hotel under an alias, had a trunk full of clothes and created a phony injury to her arm to support her self-defense claim. They also showed the jury pictures of Martel’s hands taken after her arrest that show no bruising and a perfect manicure. They said those pictures were inconsistent with defense claims that Martel struggled to disarm an attacker. The jury began deliberations Tuesday afternoon before going home for the day. —Courtesy of WMUR
Giant gingerbread man made by nonprofit DEERFIELD — A giant 250-pound gingerbread man will be raffled off to aid a Deerfield nonprofit. The gingerbread man, named Big Al, stands 5 feet 8 inches tall. It was made by the staff and residents of The Inn at Deerfield, a nonprofit home specializing in dementia care.
Staff members said Big Al is so large that it took the help of the Deerfield Volunteer Fire Department to move it from the kitchen to another room where it will be displayed until the raffle. The firefighters strapped the gingerbread man to a backboard to move it. —Courtesy of WMUR

Lobbying the old-fashioned grassroots way To the editor: In case there is still some confusion over what the “Occupy Wall Street” movement stands for, and what local folks who joined in a Conway solidarity rally last Tuesday were out there for, here’s my view. What is our greatest concern? Others might answer differently, but legendary Supreme Court Justice Louis Brandeis spoke for me: “We can have democracy in this country, or we can have great wealth concentrated in the hands of a few, but we can’t have both.” Well-motivated people in this country have always been wary of limiting the right to make money. As a result, historically, those who have been concerned with maintaining the basic level of equality that nourishes democracy have focused on leveling the playing field. This has been done by creating a social safety net, by putting in place regulatory structures to restrain the most rapacious instincts, and by protecting the rights of workers. Rather than being content with rights to accumulation that would make the pharaohs green with envy, today’s super wealthy are engaged in a battle to eliminate all of this. Faced
with such oblivious selfcenteredness of those who have more than their fair share of access to political power, the working people of this country, those of us who can’t afford our own lobbyists, are lobbying the old-fashioned grassroots way — by taking to the streets. There are good people in government from both dominant political parties, but the system is so far corrupted by the access of big money that their hands are tied. It has come to such a pass that they are completely paralyzed and unable to lead with the vision called for by the crisis of our times; they can only pay back their paymasters and toss an occasional crumb to those getting left behind by this economy … if we’re lucky. In order for real change to be possible, they need the pressure of a popular movement-people like you and me, who will make sacrifices, keep up the pressure, and not back down. Thursday, Nov. 17, from 4:30 to 6 p.m., we will be out again on the corner of Main Street and Route 153 in Conway Village, with our signs, good humor, hopes and dreams. Join us! Andy Davis Albany
The patriots are the true ‘99 percent’ To the editor: The Sun estimated that there were 50 people at the “Occupy Wall Street” rally in Conway. Reading their signs, I estimate that most of them were socialist, progressive, anti-capitalist educated
idiots. At the Veterans Day Observance in Schouler Park there were several hundred patriots. You do the math. It tells me that the patriots are the true “99 percent.” Ralph W. Wilkewitz Eaton

THE CONWAY DAILY SUN, Wednesday, November 16, 2011— Page 7
––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– LETTERS –––––––––––––––––––––––––––––
I’m opposed to wasteful spending, not to proper care To the editor: On Oct. 27, my letter to the editor concerning ongoing and potential problems relative to Carroll County government, appeared in The Conway Daily Sun. It was, in my opinion, a benign letter, citing a Wall Street report on Stratford County, pointing out its recent financial difficulties i.e. a lowered credit rating of B-2 — bond rating of “junk” — $26 million debt, etc. It also noted, the primary cause of the problem was the fact its nursing home had suffered recent losses totaling $36 million. I must have hit a nerve. County Commissioner Solomon answered with a scathing, contemptuous, scornful recrimination letter, totally removed from the reality of what I had written; full of inaccurate data, numerous erroneous statements, seemingly deliberate misquotes, and much in the way of off the wall innuendo, not to mention, permeated with unprofessional knee-jerk hyperbole. This paper has, in the past, allowed as much as a full page of space for individuals rebutting my letters; however, space allotted me is often strictly limited. It’s difficult to answer a full page of trash in 300 words. Therefore, let me ask those among you who are truly interested in the truth to revisit my letter, followed by her diatribe. Also, if there is ever any doubt as to the accuracy of facts or figures, cited by me, please do not take my word for it, rather, I ask that you check every word, every figure and every fact by going to either the Carroll County or N.H. State Legislative website and verify the data for yourself. Commissioner Solomon states: “He rages against the nursing staff.” Not a word of truth. I wrote not a single word relative to the proficiency or job performance of the nursing staff — or any other staff for the matter. She fumes further: He compares Stratford County to Carroll County. Another false insinuation. What I did do was, point out several similarities, i.e. percentage of county budgets for each nursing home i.e. Stratford, two fifths — Carroll, almost half. I also noted that the low percentage of private pay residents verses Medicare/ Medicaid residents was the decisive factor for Stratford County downfall. Was I wrong to point that out? Can we not learn from the mistakes of others? Obviously, she doesn’t believe so. Also, she claims that 37 percent of our nursing home residents are private pay ... one of the highest rates in the state, she boasts. More fiction; the minutes of the Oct. 18 Carroll county commissioner’s meeting, (check it out for yourself) state that 20 of 103 residents are private pay? That’s a far cry from 37 percent. And, I might add, my research indicates that we were never near 37 percent and, we have been on a downward trend for the past two years from a two year high of 31 private pay residents — less than 30 percent — early in 2010. Contrary to her ludicrous political hyperbole I am in no way opposed to proper care for the elderly. What I
am opposed to is wasteful spending of taxpayer money, which seems to be the farthest thing from her mind. I would expect that a county commissioner would familiarize oneself with the laws of the state governing county government i.e. Title II, and Title XII, care of the needy. State law places the financial burden on those in need of assistance squarely on the shoulders of towns and cities, not county government. As a county commissioner she should be more concerned with the efficient stewardship of taxpayer funds as opposed to being a vociferous advocacy of undisciplined spending. She goes on to state that while she sleeps, a nurse is on duty. I say while she sleeps numerous county employees are on duty. However, overtime for all county departments, less the nursing home, is a mere pittance (less than $80,000.) Compare that to the nursing home’s overtime budget of more than $385,000, of which $310,000 is set aside exclusively for “full time” nurses. According to her rant, I stated: The average annual salary of all nursing staff members equaled $80,000. She is either extremely naive, gullible as to what is going on at county, or she has a tendency to bend the truth. The figures I quoted came directly from the county administrative office. I requested a list of all employees earning in excess of $60,000 annually. Eight of the ten highest earners in 2010 were nursing home employees. The nine highest paid nursing home employees earn $109,000 to $64,000, totaling $715,881.55 or an average of $79,542. Be advised, that figure is more than double the total annual salary of all remaining county department heads, including the commissioners, combined. The statement she attributed to me: “If nurses weren’t paid so much there would be more money for other people on the county payroll,” is a blatantly dishonest, specifically focused, and purposefully fabricated. What I wrote had absolutely nothing to do with basic nursing salaries per se. Rather It dealt specifically with the out of control, undisciplined, superfluous overtime. What I did suggest was: If the nursing home would give up a large percentage of its overtime, we could utilize those funds to offer other employees salaries more commensurate with their performance and responsibilities, without increasing spending or taxes. Finally, she believes I’m picking on nurses. Not true. I have no reservations in terms of nursing salaries, nor do I believe the nursing staff does not function superbly. My disgust is with the immoral amount of budgeted nursing home overtime. Think of it, almost $385,000 in total nursing home overtime, and an additional $395,000 budgeted for retirement costs which are innately enhanced by the inflated overtime — and guaranteed to increase proportionately. Therein lies my problem. Rep. Frank McCarthy, Carroll District 1 Conway

McIntire says he’ll be in Freedom Elementary School every day helping out. The school board has discussed hiring an interim principal who will hold office through the end of the year. What that position will entail is still up for discussion. Today, at 4 p.m. the school board is scheduled to meet with staff to discuss what qualities the interim principal should have. The discussion will be open to the public but the school board will not be seeking public comment at that time, said McIntire. “The board wants to hear from the people in the trenches,” said McIntire. School Board member Todd Desmarais said the board took public comment at a previous meeting and will seek more public comment before a decision is made. He said the board will make a decision after all the facts are gathered. Desmarais said he’d like to see the community develop a five to 10 year plan for the school and this might be a good time to do that. Last month, there had been some tension between Rocco and the school board over a proposed lice policy. Rocco said the board was considering a policy that would set up infested children to be bullied. Rocco read aloud a letter of protest she aimed at the board’s decision to notify parents of an infestation at the school in September. By protesting, Rocco said she

was risking threat of insubordination. School board members said the proposed policy was designed to prevent infestations from spreading. Rocco has been a controversial figure for years. In 2009, some Freedom parents and the teachers’ union threatened a lawsuit over the school board’s decision to renew Rocco’s contract. At the time, School board members Ingrid Dewitt and Joyce Watson voted to rehire Rocco next year, even though her then boss, superintendent Gwen Poirier, said she should be released. Third member James Farinella did not vote to renew Rocco’s contract. Rocco had supporters and detractors in the community. Former school board member Anthony Cloutier said Rocco was a “good educator.” Rocco’s resignation is just one more complication for SAU 13. The SAU also includes Madison and Tamworth. McIntire announced he will leave at the end of the school year. The future existence of the SAU is even in question as the town of Madison is contemplating moving back to SAU 9. Further, Madison Elementary’s Principal Brian Ernest was charged with driving while intoxicated in Wolfeboro on Labor Day. McIntire says every SAU has challenges but SAU 13’s just happen to be noticeable to the public. Rocco could not be reached for comment.

Mark Zangari, principal of John Fuller School; Aimee Frechette, principal of Pine Tree; and Brian Hastings, principal of Conway Elementary School, believe the time is now for all day kindergarten and think the move could actually lead to long term financial gains for the district. “We’ve got to get a jump on literacy, we know full-time kindergarten addresses it,” Zangari said and offered a one-page outline of the principal’s proposal. He explained the administrators have long supported full day kindergarten, however, proposal have never reached the board in the past due to budget constraints. The trio acknowledged it’s not the best of financial times, but the need continues to mount. “The time really has come for this to be addressed,” Zangari said. All-day kindergarten programing was a recommendation by the K-8 Educational Research Committee in their 2009 report. Elementary school principals have strongly supported a full-day kindergarten program for many years and are bringing the program forward for consideration of a warrant article. “We believe it is best practice for addressing the district’s goal of narrowing the achievement gap,” the proposal states. “Additional benefits in their proposal included: • A full-day kindergarten program
“We’ve got to get a jump on literacy, we know full-time kindergarten addresses it,” Principal Mark Zangari said.
essentially triples the instructional time available to students. Currently, a typical kindergarten schedule includes one 45 minute special (art, music, PE, library, etc.), snack, recess and teaching time within a three and a half hour program. With a full-day program, the specials snack and recess would remain the same with the added time being purely instructional. • A full day kindergarten program would offset the costs of our of district placements for students who require a longer day than we currently offer. In a full-day program, special education services would be delivered in the same manner as those for students in grades 1-6. • A full-day kindergarten program would allow more time in the school day for interventions for those students requiring extra support and/or enrichment opportunities. • Many children are enrolled in full day pre-kindergarten programing just to switch to a half-day program once they reach kindergarten. All-day kindergarten will preserve continuity in their educational programming. see KINDERGARTEN page 11

He said it makes sense from a tax perspective to extend his winnings out over 20 years versus taking one lump sum. Sure, that sounds like sound calculating — but at the relatively advanced age of 72, isn’t he taking a chance? “My standard line is that I ‘swim in a good gene pool,’ ” laughed Brown. “I expect to live to be 92 and who knows how far beyond — I am in good shape physically. My grandmother and her sister both lived to be 102, so I am counting on the genes. If not, my daughter — who lives here in Conway — will miss me, but I am sure she will be OK!” He says he spends $6 a week on tickets playing both Powerball and the Tri-State Weekly Grand Extra drawing. He played the birthdays of his daughter and late son. The winning numbers were 7 – 10 – 25 – 30 and the Lucky Ball: 15. “I play the same numbers constantly,” he said. “I play my kids’ birthdays, and the last number was just dumb luck.” Past winner Winning is nothing new to Brown. “I won $400 in the Mass Lottery two weeks in a row — and that was when I was making $150 a week! So, that was beautiful,” said Brown, who said winning this week was also great. “There are 100 ways to describe it — I have Social Security and a pension. The way I look at this is I am making more money now, doing nothing than I did when I was working ... I was working 40 hours a week, and now I’m doing ‘what the hell’ a week.” Road trips With the $1,000 a week cushion provided by his winnings, Brown hopes to be able to take a few road trips to places he has

always wanted to see. “Nothing extravagant,” he said. He said he lost his wife 10 years ago. He enjoys his new life in Mount Washington Valley, but said he misses being near the ocean, especially being a resident of Marblehead since childhood. “But even with this, I doubt I could afford to live there now,” he said, noting that the house in the now much sought-after town that his grandmother bought for $3,000 sold recently for more than $500,000. He said he now will be able to lend some assistance to some family members, and to give to select charities. “I like to help where I can,” he said.
Asked if he thought he was taking a gamble by going public and fearing whether he would be subjected to requests for help or speculative sales calls, he said, “Not really. The phone works two ways — I can always hang up.” Tri-State Weekly Grand and Tri-State Weekly Grand Extra tickets are on sale in Maine, New Hampshire and Vermont. To date, nine jackpot winning tickets for this game have been sold. New Hampshire has sold three of those winners while Maine has had four winners and Vermont with two winners. Prior to Brown’s winning, New Hampshire’s latest TriState Weekly Grand Extra jackpot winner on July 1, 2011 was Nancy Swanson of Salem.

School board member Dick Klement wondered if the $170,000 start up fee might be too small. He pointed out that aides would obviously be needed. At present, Conway Elementary and Pine Tree both have full-time aides while John Fuller has a half-time aide. He envisioned the start-up cost being in the neighborhood of $250,000. Zangari disputed the figure being that high as the principals would work out a schedule that may not require additional staffing other than the teachers. Fellow board member Syndi White, who serves on the district’s special education review committee, agreed with Zangari. “There are lot of creative models that could be used in a non-traditional fashion.” Currently, the New Hampshire Department of Education requires districts to provide only halfday kindergarten. The Bartlett School District offers full-day. There are currently 54 out-of-district special education placements from the Conway School Distirct, and, of those, 38 are preschoolers. The Conway School District’s Special Education Review Committee believes full-day kindergarten and in-house preschool could dramatically reduce costs to the district as well as possibly better meet the needs of students and their families. Of the out-of-district placements, 38 are preschoolers. The district does not have an in-house preschool at this time. White said there are four kindergarten students receiving full-day services at a rate of $40,000 per year. There are 12 students placed out of district in grades 1-12 (six in elementary level and six in high school). The reasons for the out of district placement vary. White said for the preschoolers, there is not an in-district inclusive preschool program. This district does not have a full-day kindergarten program. By law, the Conway School District is responsible for children from ages 3 to 21. A school psychologist is used to assessed children. “Most of these students are on the autism spectrum and need a combination of regular kinder-

garten with neurotypical peers and individualized therapies necessitating a full-day program,” White explained. “For grades 1-12, the two trends that we see are the out placement of students with autism spectrum disorder and those with emotional/behavioral disorders.” White explained to her colleagues that within the current special education system, the committee identified several areas need to be “improved, strengthened, changed” in order to successfully serve the children of the district. The committee outlined those areas in a threepage report: “Preschool. The committee recommends exploring an in-district inclusive preschool program. The number of students with special needs in preschool continues to rise, especially children diagnosed with autism spectrum. We explored this two years ago in the K-8 committee, but the numbers are there for us to do a thorough analysis.”
“Kindergarten. The need for full-day kindergarten will continue to rise as the number of students with autism reach kindergarten. The district needs to look into developing a full-day kindergarten program and/or create alternatives to outof-district placements for our kindergarten level students. The cost is extremely high per student (we are currently paying $40,000 per child), and there is a possibility that appropriate services can be provided for significantly less money indistrict.” Board member Randy Davison would be interested in seeing what the out of districts would be if all-day kindergarten was offered in Conway. “Generally,” Frechette said, “the trend is it will certainly offset some costs.” “I know that this is a save a lot of money thing, it’s probably a more do the right thing educationally thing,” Klement said and pointed out one of the biggest expenses is benefits for aides.

THE ENTREPRENOLOGIST
Customer service for firefighters BY MICHAEL KLINE Do first responders think of you as their customer? It is not that simple. We have to ask which “you” we are talking about. Are you, the taxpayer, the customer? Or is it you, when you’re an accident victim? What about you, when your fire alarm is going off? Accidentally? Who is the customer when a firefighter is performing a safety inspection at a business? Is it you if you work at the hospital and an EMT brings in a new patient? Is it the patient or is it you, when you’re the child of a patient being transported from the hospital to a nursing home? I think it’s all the above and, at the same time, none of the above. Last week, I had the pleasure of teaching a relationship/ service/social intelligence seminar to about 40 very special men and women at the North Conway Fire Department. In the audience were firefighters, EMTs, administrative staff and even a few people from the North Conway Water Precinct. Michael Kline The goal of the seminar was to provide some new tools and insight to help our first responders deal with the many stressful and difficult situations pertaining to their relationship with the people in the path of their work. Yes, I’m talking about customer service. So who are the customers of a fire department? Everyone. These amazing people choose to put their lives on the line to serve the community at large, and personally, every individual in need of their help. I like that the emergency responders think of all of us as customers to be well served. The word customer brings a certain set of expectations with it that comfort us. On the other hand, we know that customers sometimes have unrealistic expectations, and I don’t want those expectations added to the already difficult job our local heroes have. After all, I said “none of the above” because their work in the “safety business” sometimes needs to take precedence over service issues. If you are a regular reader, you probably know I despise the adage, “The customer is always right.” That thinking does nothing to improve customer service. This phrase is correct as it applies to marketing discussions, not for individual customer service. It has been my experience that the customer is seldom right, and too many people think this customer service cliche means every individual customer has the right to be overly demanding, rude and entitled to whatever they think makes sense to them. Never mind that the phrase is belittling to employees everywhere. The premise of the training I provided this week was around the elements of social intelligence: to know yourself, control yourself and motivate yourself, to recognize and know others with a different outlook, and to be able to finesse a positive outcome in spite of those differences. The techniques we teach that build these skills are, like most things, simple and complex at the same time. It is not easy to develop the skill of recognizing the fine line that separates aggressiveness from assertiveness, or assessing and dealing with the distraction of the emotional state of an accident victim’s hysterical spouse, or to follow your excelsee KLINE page 13
The Sun goes solar
A crew from Clean Engergy Solutions of Springvale, Maine, installs thermal solar panels on the roof of The Conway Daily Sun offices. (JAMIE GEMMITI PHOTO)
So that’s what those rooftops panels are all about BY TOM EASTMAN THE CONWAY DAILY SUN
CONWAY — The Sun — as in The Conway Daily Sun — is going solar. As many passersby have observed, five sets of eight solar thermal panels have been erected on the roof of the newspaper’s offices at the corner of Seavey Street and the North-South Road — a wellexposed setting that gives excellent exposure to the south. “Many people have asked us what those panels are on the roof,” said Sun publisher Mark Guerringue. “First of all,” he said, “we are not doing this to save the world — it certainly feels good to be reducing our fossil fuels, but it’s really about economics. It can save money, and do it in a way that burns less fossil fuels.” Guerringue got the idea from the laundry next
door whose owner, Marc Ohlson installed a similar system a year ago. Energy expert Doug Gerry of Clean Energy Solutions of Springvale, Maine, installed both systems. “It was an easy decision to go with someone as good as Doug, who recently completed a big system for Cornell on the Isles of Shoals” said Guerringue. Tax credits Guerringue estimates the payback for the $80,000 investment is expected to be in about three years. Due to a 30 percent federal tax credit and a state energy program that funds 25 percent of the cost of solar projects, as well as equipment depreciation, the actual cost to the Sun is expected to be about $25,000, said Guerringue. see SOLAR page 18
Fryeburg businesses hold networking socials FRYEBURG — Business socials are now taking place on a monthly basis in Fryeburg. The purpose of these socials, according to the Fryeburg Business Association, is to create a networking opportunity for people to learn about each other and share their information while enjoying a social night out with others. “This new open format allows businesses to promote themselves or partner with another business for a greater visibility and networking event,” states an association press release. “Be sure to bring your business cards and come enjoy refreshments, door prizes, and a great networking atmosphere.” The next social is scheduled for Monday, Nov. 21, from 5 to 7 p.m. at the Hastings Law Firm at 376 Main Street in Fryeburg. Given the time of year, attendees are asked to consider bringing a donation for the
Brownfield Food Pantry (canned or boxed) which the pantry will give out to those in need at Christmas time. This will be a catered evening of refreshments as well as door prizes and a shared story of Hasting Law Firm’s long history in the town of Fryeburg. The final social of 2011 will be hosted by the all new “Dream It, Create It Studios,” formerly known as “Carol Hanson Art,” on Wednesday, Dec. 11, from 5 to 7 p.m. This is a cooperative boutique and education center located on Portland Street in the heart of Fryeburg, with working art studios featuring artists Carol Hanson, Ivy Jordan, and Maxine Z. Wolfe. There will be refreshments, hors d’oeuvres and prizes. For more information on Fryeburg Business Association or to become a member, go to www.fryeburgbusiness.com

It is my assessment that these professionals care immensely about all of their customer sets. They train constantly to do their jobs better, which is very rare in most other occupations. Typically, that training does not include emotional training or anything close to customer service.

Sally Bags founder inducted into League of N.H. Craftsmen
CONWAY — Janet Durkee-Prescott, long-time Mount Washington Valley resident and founder of artisan handbag company, Sally Bags, was inducted into the League of N.H. Craftsmen last week. Founded in 1932, the League of N.H. Craftsmen is one of the oldest and most prestigious craft organizations in the country. The league’s mission of building an audience and market for fine handmade New Hampshire crafts is continued through their rigorous "Standards Program" for juried artisans, education programs, retail galleries and annual craftsmen’s fair. “I am extremely honored to be juried into the League
of N.H. Craftsmen and to be welcomed into an organization comprised of such talented artisans,” said Prescott. She continued, “It’s sort of surreal to have a panel of master craftsmen in your medium tell you that your body of work meets or exceeds their criteria. I have always loved what I do and taken pride in my quality of work, but I never expected to be so well received by such a prestigious craft organization.” Prescott created Sally Bags in 2002 after an excess of fabric sparked her interest in creating and perfecting a more functional, durable and beautiful handbag. Using techniques learned from over 30 years in the industrial sewing industry, it's Prescott’s eye for color
and pattern that allows her to create her distinctively fun and different Sally Bags. “Becoming a member of the League of N.H. Craftsmen is not only a huge coupe for us, but it provides so many new business opportunities for Sally Bags. I am excited to see where we go from here,” said Prescott. Sally Bags will soon be available in select League of N.H. Craftsmen retail galleries throughout the state. For more information about Sally Bags or current retail locations call (603) 447-4957 or visit www.sallybagsonline.com. More information about the League of N.H. Craftsmen and its retail locations can be found at www.nhcrafts.org.

POSTER from page 14
“It’s been a successful and fun ride to produce these posters for everyone to enjoy,” says Kline, “and it’s been a lot of fun to work with Dianne over the years to create exactly what our customers were looking for.” The vintage style posters come in a variety of forms, from grand canvases for $230 to limited editions on canvas for $149, to framed prints at $79, to rolled posters for just $20. Collectors of the limited editions are given first chance to acquire the newest addition, so demand is high for the numbered canvas collectibles. “I think they would have my head if I sold ‘their number’ without checking with them first,” explains Martignetti, who keeps tedious track of the process and inventory. If interested in one of the limited editions or other versions, contact the Framed Art Superstore at 356-8278, open daily 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. in North Conway Village across from TD Bank. Meet artist Dianne Mello at the signing party on Saturday, Nov. 26, from noon to 4 p.m. along with a live, remote broadcast from WMWV 93.5 and Magic 104. Get your poster signed and enjoy coffee and goodies from the Met Coffee House and Art Gallery. The event will be held at the Framed Art Superstore.

SOLAR from page 12
“The state has a rebate program through which a fractional amount is collected by the Public Utilities Commission from all of our electric bills and is made available for alternative programs,” said Guerringue. He said there is about $600,000 still available. “So,” he said, “I am hoping we can save $10,000 a year on fuel oil and propane, which is two-thirds of our yearly heating cost.” He said the Sun and Gerry are also looking into possibly using solar energy to power a chiller to cool the newspaper’s printing press room when it heats up in summer. That would make printing the newspaper easier in humid weather, which raises havoc with the ink and the paper. An added benefit would be to cool the air during hot spells for the press room crew. “The pressroom is an old building and it would be ridiculously expensive to air condition that space without the help of solar,” said Guerringue. There are two basic types of solar systems: photovoltaic and solar thermal. Both use solar panels. Photovoltaic panels convert solar energy directly to electricity while solar thermal heats water. Gerry says in terms of BTUs produced solar thermal is about four times more efficient that a photovoltaic system. What makes the Sun an ideal candidate for solar thermal is the front half of the building, which faces Seavey Street, already has radiant heating, a system where hot water runs through tubes in the slab of the building. Currently the hot water is heated by a conventional oil burner. The water heated by the solar panels will tie into the system and provide most of the heat. The oil burner will be used as backup when the sun doesn’t shine for extended periods.
In addition to heating the slab, heating water from the panels will be converted to hot air that will heat the back half of building, the pressroom, which doesn’t have radiant heat. “There is PEX plastic tubing in the concrete,” said Gerry, 59, explaining how the system will integrate with the radiant system. “The fluid that runs through the solar thermal panels runs through the plastic tubing.” Energetic and passionate about his work, Gerry has done many solar projects throughout New England — including the job for Cornell University’s lab on Appledore Island, part of the Isle of Shoals, and Ohlson’s Seavey Street Laundromat. “It’s a no brainer to go solar for a laundromat,” says Gerry, “because the hot water needs are so high, and inefficiencies are so much higher. We installed that system in early December. We put in a modulating condensing gas boiler as well, as a backup, and their annual energy costs have been reduced by about 80 percent.” Long history in field Gerry says he first got into the alternative energy business in the late 1970s, but shifted his focus when the Reagan Administration did away with solar tax credits in 1985. “The solar industry went dead overnight after that,” he said. “What we found is that while [solar] companies here in America pretty much went to sleep, the Europeans didn’t — we enjoy relatively cheap fuel here in America even today compared to the European community. So, we look to them for higher tech panels that use a selective surface of titanium dioxide, which gives out 10 percent less heat in infrared so you don’t lose that heat. Everyone here in the ‘70s and ‘80s used black chrome — but the Europeans won’t touch it as it is environmentally
unfriendly when you go to get rid of it.” When the solar tax credits were restored during the Bush Administration in 2006, given his prior experience, Gerry says his company was poised to take advantage by jumping back into the market. He also furthered his training. “In 2007,” he explained, “I attended the Inter Solar conference in Freiburg and Munich, Germany, where I was introduced to the Turkish company, Ezinc, which is the second largest solar panel manufacturer in Europe. We brought their panel over here, and sent it to Body Coat in Canada, to be tested for the Solar Rating and Certification Corporation rating. I use their product exclusively.” In the ‘70s, he said, there were a lot of “back yard products” that had not been adequately tested. “But now,” he said, “with the SRCC requirements, the panels are all rated for their performance, so it takes the guess work out” while giving consumers confidence. ‘Business sense’ He says although solar is clean energy, which is great, he stresses to potential customers that above all, it can make good business sense. “I don’t play the global warming card when I speak with potential customers. I go strictly on economics,” said Gerry. “It’s all about BTUs [British Thermal Units] per dollar delivered. A good panel is one that will last 30 years, and perform the same over time. If the owners turn out to be a little green as well, that’s also a win. But we try and make sense economically, as most businesses are most concerned with that.” He said all projects excite him — including the Sun’s. “Every one of these projects is different,” he said.

Library Connection
Tom and Atticus benefit humane society Even before the official release of his book "Following Atticus" on Sept. 20 Tom Ryan and his canine companion Atticus were on their way to national and international acclaim. One Book One Valley, a community reading project, chose the book back in March. When asked about his fee, Tom waived a stipend for himself and requested that any money be donated to the local humane society. On Thursday, Nov. 17 at 7 p.m. Tom and Atticus will be at the Lutheran Church of the Nativity on Main Street in North Conway Village as the culminating event for this year’s One Book One Valley. Donations of supplies or money to the Animal Rescue League of New Hampshire – North will be gratefully accepted. The program is free and open to the public, thanks to grants from the Pequawket Foundation, the NH Humanities Council and the Kendal C. and Anna Ham Charitable Foundation. Eleven libraries and White Birch Booksellers joined forces this year to distribute copies of "Following Atticus" throughout the Valley area. Response to Ryan’s story has been enthusiastic. Open reception for artist of the month Each month the Conway Public
Fryeburg Town Column
Library features a different local artist in the Ham Community Room. November’s exhibit is by Elizabeth Irwin, who will host a reception in the Ham Room on Saturday, Nov. 19, from 2 to 4:30 p.m. Refreshments will be served and the public is invited. If you are a visual artist and would like to schedule an exhibit, please contact Olga Morrill at the library Monday through Wednesday at 447-5552, or e-mail omorrill@conwaypubliclibrary.org. Although displays are not juried, you must have at least 10 and not more than 40 hang-able pieces. The library is open everyday of the week except Sunday and the room is used frequently for both community and library programs, providing a great venue. Discussion of ‘The Book Thief’ On the third Monday of each month at 10:15 a.m. the Conway Library offers a book discussion. November’s choice is Marcus Zusak’s "The Book Thief." Set in Germany during World War II, the plot is not without violence and brutality but is ultimately a story of the resilience of the human spirit. Join this open group for coffee and conversation that gets you thinking. The book for December will be Hotel at the
Corner of Bitter and Sweet by Jaime Ford. Copies are available starting Monday, Nov. 21. Coming up Thursday, Nov. 17, from 3:30 to 5:30 p.m. — Gaming day for young adults in grade six and older.

DILBERT
by Scott Adams
By Holiday Mathis SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Giving attention to the things you don’t want in your life is a sure way to make things hard for yourself. Instead, you will be a master of focus, putting your attention only on the things you want to develop. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Most people will not be able to keep up with your energy level now. They may look like they understand you, but this could be an act. Slow down, and give the other person a chance to follow you. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You are as inspired by friendship as you are by loneliness. Complexities of character such as this will never cease to fascinate the people around you. You’ll attract new fans with your mysterious ways. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You’ll field unexpected opportunities. It won’t be necessary to make a decision now. Keep thinking of your options. Tonight, you’ll apply your talents to turning an ordinary event into something remarkable. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You are loved, but for some reason, you may not feel like you can safely let that love in. The ones who disappointed you in the past may have something to do with this. Challenge yourself to open up today. TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Nov. 16). Your social scene will sparkle with animated and attractive characters. You’ll love the feeling of belonging that grows through 2012. December brings the chance to vault financial obstacles. You’ll gain recognition for your talent in May. In June, physical and competitive efforts lead to increased vitality and success. Cancer and Aquarius people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 30, 15, 3, 24 and 1.
Get Fuzzy
ARIES (March 21-April 19). Wanting something (or someone) too much isn’t good for you. There’s a difference between channeling your passion well and being needy. Relax, and you’ll play the game better. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Can you drown out a feeling with a thought? You can and do on a regular basis. Today, though, it might be simpler and healthier to let the feeling happen. In a moment, it will be over, and you’ll be lighter for the experience. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You’ll exercise your will over your moods, the environment and whatever oppressive forces are around. You’ll do this just to prove to yourself and the universe who really is in charge. CANCER (June 22-July 22). There will be a mess to clean up. And though this is a normal and expected part of life, it doesn’t make it any more pleasant. You’ll get the job done by handling one small area at a time. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You love how life always gives you the next thing to do. Today you probably won’t see the succession clearly. You’ll have to handle the first and second tasks before the second and third tasks become clear. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You do need more peace and quiet than other people right now. Just make sure that you’re not running away from a problem or isolating yourself out of fear. Solitude will be healing when it’s a destination and not an escape. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). The old influences just don’t excite you like they used to. There’s no time like the present to start a new collection of jokes that make you laugh, pictures that inspire you and sounds that make you want to move your body.

THE CONWAY DAILY SUN, Wednesday, November 16, 2011— Page 21
Today is Wednesday, Nov. 16, the 320th day of 2011. There are 45 days left in the year. Today’s Highlight in History: On Nov. 16, 1961, House Speaker Samuel T. Rayburn, 79, died at his home in Bonham, Texas, having served as speaker since 1940 except for two terms as minority leader of the Democrats. On this date: In 1776, British troops captured Fort Washington in New York during the American Revolution. In 1907, Oklahoma became the 46th state of the union. In 1933, the United States and the Soviet Union established diplomatic relations. In 1959, the Rodgers and Hammerstein musical “The Sound of Music” opened on Broadway. In 1960, Academy Award-winning actor Clark Gable died in Los Angeles at age 59. In 1966, Dr. Samuel H. Sheppard was acquitted in his second trial of murdering his pregnant wife, Marilyn, in 1954. In 1973, Skylab 4, carrying a crew of three astronauts, was launched from Cape Canaveral on an 84-day mission. In 1981, the Senate confirmed Dr. C. Everett Koop to be surgeon general. Oscarwinning actor William Holden, 63, was found dead in his Santa Monica, Calif., apartment. On the ABC-TV soap opera “General Hospital,” Laura Webber (played by Genie Francis) married Luke Spencer (played by Anthony Geary). One year ago: President Barack Obama presented the Medal of Honor to Army Staff Sgt. Salvatore Giunta, the first living service member from the Afghanistan and Iraq wars to receive the nation’s top military award. U.S. Rep. Charles Rangel was convicted on 11 of 13 charges related to financial misconduct, prompting fellow lawmakers to censure the 80-year-old New York Democrat. Today’s Birthdays: Actor Clu Gulager is 83. Blues musician Hubert Sumlin is 80. Blues musician W.C. Clark is 72. Actress Joanna Pettet is 69. Actor Steve Railsback is 66. Actor David Leisure is 61. Actor Miguel Sandoval is 60.

FORMAL COMPLAINT IS LODGED AGAINST INFORMAL SALUTATIONS
DEAR ABBY: Whenever I receive a business communication from someone unknown to me with my first name in the salutation, as in “Dear Robert,” it immediately goes into the trash. Being addressed by my first name in this context is just plain wrong. Since I don’t know the person who is sending the correspondence, I find the informal tone to be highly improper. Please remind your readers -- particularly those in business -- about your booklet on correspondence and communication, “How to Write Letters for All Occasions.” I have been accused of being “old school.” However, there are rules and guidelines governing written communication, and it seems as though they are being ignored. Would you please inform people about the proper way to write? And is your “Letters” booklet still available? -- CALL ME “MISTER C.,” SAN JOSE, CALIF. DEAR MISTER C.: I hope that by the time this email sees print, you will have cooled off. The communications that offend you probably were sent as part of a mass mailing generated by a computer. If that isn’t the case, then the individuals who drafted them may not have realized that in business correspondence, the salutation should read: Dear Ms. Smith Dear Mr. Carson The “Letters” booklet is still available and covers additional salutations that are helpful to know, including how to address a senator or congressman, a clergyperson, etc.
“How to Write Letters for All Occasions” can be ordered by sending a business-sized, self-addressed envelope, plus a check or money order for $6 (U.S. funds), to Dear Abby -- Letters Booklet, P.O. Box 447, Mount Morris, IL 610540447. Shipping and handling are included in the price. My booklet also contains helpful suggestions for writing letters of congratulations; difficult topics to address such as letters of condolence for the loss of a parent, spouse or child; and thank-you letters for birthday gifts, shower gifts, wedding gifts and those that arrive at holiday time. (A tip: Keep a notepad handy and write down what immediately comes to mind when the gift is opened. This can be helpful if later you are at a loss for words!) Judging from the high volume of email and snail mail I receive, letter composition is something that is not always effectively taught in school. My booklet can provide a helpful assist for anyone who needs a quick and easy tutorial, and it is particularly helpful for parents to use as a way to easily teach their children how to write using proper etiquette. Keep it in a drawer and dip into it as needed. DEAR ABBY: I am 8 years old. At the bottom of a letter, sometimes people write XOXO. Which one means hug and which one means kiss? -- ANNA IN MISSOURI DEAR ANNA: The “X” means kiss and the “O” signifies a hug. P.S. Some people write “SWAK” on the flap of the envelope, which stands for “sealed with a kiss.”
Dear Abby is written by Abigail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips. Write Dear Abby at: Dear Abby, c/o The Conway Daily Sun, PO Box 1940, North Conway, NH 03860

I have been hiking as often as I can lately and just want to remind my fellow hikers that hunting season is in full swing. Good hunters always know what they’re shooting at, but you can never be too safe. Please wear at least two pieces of blaze orange while on the trail, a hat and a vest. And if you’re bringing along your canine friends, tie blaze orange around their collars. While it may annoy you to have to go to these lengths, I assure you it is better to be safe than sorry. We can only be said to be alive in those moments when our hearts are conscious of our treasures. — Thornton Wilder

NORTH ANDOVER, Mass. – The Merrimack women’s basketball team dropped its season opener to Molloy College 63-51 in non-conference action Saturday afternoon at Hammel Court. The game marked the debut of former Kennett High standout Allie Wagner for the Warriors. Over 50 friends and family members were on hand as part of the 412 spectators in attendance. Wagner, the daughter of Lynore and Ed Wagner, of Conway, played 32 of 40 minutes and finished with three points on the afternoon on 1-11 shooting. The second leading scorer in Kennett High girls and boys basketball history, also pulled down a rebound. Merrimack started strong, taking an early 23-14 lead while drawing 10 Molloy fouls in the first 12 minutes of action. But the Lions recovered, closing the half on a 12-3 run to lead 35-26 after 20 minutes. The Warriors managed just three points in the final 8:58 of the half, while committing 16 first-half turnovers and shooting 27 percent from the field. The Warriors were unable to make up ground in the second half and could only cut the lead to seven with 14 minutes to play. Merrimack (0-1) hosts No. 22 ranked Franklin Pierce in its conference opener today at 5:30 p.m.
