Valley part of a global movement BY DAYMOND STEER THE CONWAY DAILY SUN

CONWAY — "The protester" has been named Time Magazine's Person of the Year, and local Occupy protesters feel like they're included in that honor. Time's Person of the Year choice is dedicated to protesters all over the globe, from those at the Arab Spring to the Occupy Wall Street in the United States. Since November there have been a number of Occupy protests in Conway. Occupy Wall Street is a leaderless movement that began on Sept. 17 in New York City's financial district, inspiring related actions that have spread to over 100 cities across the U.S. and over 1,500 cities around the world. Common concerns include the economy and the corroding effect of big banks and multinational corporations on democracy, according to Occupy Conway protester Andy Davis of Albany. Mary Edes, the minister of the Unitarian Universalist Church in Tamworth, is pleased see PROTESTER page 12

Voters to decide on all-day kindergarten BY LLOYD JONES

On-Site X -Ray & Lab

THE CONWAY DAILY SUN

CONWAY — Do you want all-day kindergarten? Voters will get to answer that question when they head to the polls next April. Administrators from Pine Tree, Conway Elementary and John Fuller

School along with school superintendent Carl Nelson are recommending that allday kindergarten be presented as a warrant article rather than be built into the 2012-13 budget. The estimated cost is $170,931 for three teachers at $55,477 and $1,500 per school for supplies and equipment. The Conway School Board agreed

Devices distracting doctors

(NY Times) — Hospitals and doctors’ offices, hoping to curb medical error, have invested heavily to put computers, smartphones and other devices into the hands of medical staff for instant access to patient data, drug information and case studies. But like many cures, this solution has come with an unintended side effect: doctors and nurses can be focused on the screen and not the patient, even during moments of critical care. And they are not always doing work; examples include a neurosurgeon making personal calls during an operation, a nurse checking airfares during surgery and a poll showing that half of technicians running bypass machines had admitted texting during a procedure. This phenomenon has set off an intensifying discussion at hospitals and medical schools about a problem perhaps best described as “distracted doctoring.” In response, some hospitals have begun limiting the use of devices in critical settings, while schools have started reminding medical students to focus on patients instead of gadgets, even as the students are being given more devices. “You walk around the hospital, and what you see is not funny,” said Dr. Peter J. Papadakos, an anesthesiologist and director of critical care at the University of Rochester Medical Center in upstate New York.

Disagreement over payroll tax cut’s impact on Social Security WASHINGTON (NY Times) — For all of the partisan brawling over President Obama’s call to extend a temporary payroll tax cut for 160 million Americans, one concern is bipartisan: a significant minority of Democrats and Republicans say that cutting the taxes that finance Social Security benefits will further undermine the program.

The Obama administration, many budget experts (but not all) and the chief actuary for the Social Security Administration say the proposal will do no such thing. But some conservative Republicans and liberal Democrats who agree on little else are just as adamant that it will. Both parties predict the payroll tax cut will be extended

beyond its Dec. 31 expiration, though the question of how to pay for it and some other unrelated issues in the year-end legislation continued to hold it up on Wednesday. Still, the disagreement over the tax cut lingers. It is less over money than philosophy, and reflects a debate as old as the 75-yearold program about Social Security’s fundamental structure.

Ravaged, remade, Iraq is on its own BAGHDAD (NY Times) — At a crowded market in the city center here, the flotsam of the war is for sale. Ripped Fuel workout supplement. Ready-toeat meals, macaroni-and-cheese “Mexican style.” Pistol holsters. Nothing seems off limits to the merchants out for a quick dinar. The concrete blast walls that shielded the shopping stalls have lately come down. Since then, three explosions have struck the market, killing several people. After nearly nine years, some 4,500 American fatalities and about $1 trillion, America’s war in Iraq is about to end. Officials marked the finish Thursday with a modest ceremony at the airport days before the last troops traverse the southern

highway to Kuwait, going out as they came in, to conclude the United States’ most ambitious and bloodiest military campaign since Vietnam. Iraqis will be left with a country that is not exactly at war, and not exactly at peace. It has improved in many ways since the 2007 troop “surge,” but it is still a shattered country marred by violence and political dysfunction, a land defined on sectarian lines whose future, for better or worse, is now in the hands of its people. “It is the end for the Americans only,” Emad Risn, an Iraqi columnist, wrote in the pages of Assabah al-Jadeed, a government-funded newspaper. “Nobody knows if the war will end for Iraqis, too.”

Putin: Foes are using protests to destabilize Russia

MOSCOW (NY Times) — Prime Minister Vladimir V. Putin of Russia delivered a mixed assessment on Thursday of a growing protest movement against his government, praising a new class of young dissenters for standing up for their beliefs, while suggesting that they were being used as pawns by opposition leaders to destabilize the country. “I see young, active people, clearly formulating their positions, and this makes me happy,” Putin said in a televised question-andanswer program he holds annually. “If this is the result of the Putin regime, then great But allowing yourselves to be pulled into some kind of scheme for destabilizing society is impermissible.” They were his first detailed comments about the nascent protest movement, which culminated last weekend in a huge antiKremlin rally in Moscow that drew tens of thousands of people. The movement has posed the first major grass-roots challenge to Mr. Putin’s authority since he took power 12 years ago, and his government has not yet offered a clear strategy for dealing with it.

Former Massachusetts governor Mitt Romney remains the clear favorite in New Hampshire for the Republican presidential nomination, but former U.S. Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich is gaining. The latest New Hampshire Republican Presidential Primary poll released Wednesdayby SuffolkUniversity/7News (from Boston) also shows that former Lousiana governor Buddy Roemer is starting to make a little headway. He has moved into statistical dead heat for fifth in the poll. Roemer was delighted with the news Wednesday and hoped that would lead to him garnering a spot on the national debate stage. <span style="font-size: 14px;"></ span>"I am encouraged by the strong support from Granite Staters” said Roemer. “We’ve held over 200 campaign stops in New Hampshire, by far the most out of any presidential candidate, and my message is resonating very well with voters here." The poll of 400 likely Republican primary voters featured 118 responses from Hillsborough County; 100 from central New Hampshire; 92 from Rockingham County; and 90 from northern and western New Hampshire. Latest poll results: Romney, 38 percent; Gingrich, 20 percent; former Utah Governor Jon Huntsman, 13 percent; Texas Congressman Ron Paul, 8 percent; Minnesota Congressman Michelle Bachmann, 3 percent; businessman Herman Cain, 2 percent; Roemer, 2 percent; former Pennsylvania Senator Rick Santorum, 2 percent; Texas Governor Rick Perry, 1 percent; former New Mexico Governor Gary Johnson, 1 percent; and businessman Fred Karger, 0 percent. In terms of actual votes, Romney garnered 153 followed by Gingrich, 79;

Huntsman, 51; Paul, 33; Bachmann, 11; Cain, 8; Santorum, 7; Roemer, 6; Perry, 5; Johnson, 3; and Karger, 0. The poll sought answers to 29 questions including: "Despite who you're personally voting for, who do you expect the next president will be — Barack Obama or one of the Republican candidates? Romney came out on top with 138 votes followed by President Obama, 84; undecided, 83; Gingrich, 71; Paul, 8; Bachmann, 6; Huntsman and Cain, 4; Perry and Santorum, 1; and Roemer, Johnson and Karger, 0. The participants were asked, "How confident are you that the Republican nominee will defeat Barack Obama next November — very confident, somewhat confident, not very confident, not at all confident?" Responses were: 167 somewhat confident, 120 very confident; 57 not very confident, 36 not at all confident; and 20 undecided. Among the two Republican front runners at the moment, participants "trust" Romney more than Gingrich to fix the economy. Romney received 237 votes while Gingrich got 80, or three less than undecided. Gingrich rebounds when participants were asked who they felt would do a better job with foreign policy: Gingrich 184; Romney, 137; undecided, 79. If the U.S. was attacked, who would you want to see in the White House — Gingrich or Romney? Romney, 168; Gingrich, 146; and 86 undecided. Who has the personality best suited to be president — Gingrich or Romney? Romney, 280; Gingrich, 64; and 66 undecided. In your opinion, who is the biggest flip-flopper on issues, Gingrich or Romney? Romney, 164; Gingrich, 73; and 78 undecided. Who would be better at bringing America together — Gingrich or Romney? Romney, 249; Gingrich, 98; and 138 undecided.

Let’s respect loving and caring couples To the editor: I am a 13 year old girl writing in response to Bruce Cochrane’s letter about gay marriage. It seemed to me that not only was he acting immature by rubbing his beliefs in people’s faces, but he was also being completely narrow-minded. The world is changing to include gay people in our society and I think that is beautiful. Cochrane shouldn’t fight against something as powerful as love between two people. I know some amazing same sex married couples who have made a loving

family and live happily together. What would their children think of Cochrane’s condescending letter? That they aren’t “normal”? That they aren’t accepted? People are born into this world along with their sexual orientation. They can’t change what they feel. We, as a world, need to accept the idea of same sex relationships because it is a reality. It always has been and always will be. Let’s respect loving, caring couples even if their relationship is not what we would choose for ourselves. Sara Elsemore Silver Lake

I saw Huntsman and he is the real deal Letter to editor: Ambassador Huntsman has worked for four Presidents and has a wonderful family with seven children and he is only 51 years old. Mitt Romney has a wonderful family and served our border state as governor, he looks like 51. I saw Huntsman at the

Conway American Legion and he is the real deal. I saw former speaker Newt Gingrich at a cafe in Conway and I was concerned for his health, it appears he has let his waistline go to pot. What candidates do you want your kids to emulate? Michael Callis Eaton

Shedding progressive hogwash helped To the editor: Just couldn’t pass this by! Dave Mason, ex-selectman of Jackson just had to follow his Republican hating buddies by attacking the Republicans who took over the state house this past January by critizing the lack of “jobs, jobs, jobs.” Today I visited two businesses in North Conway and both had “Help Wanted” signs on the doors. Coincidentally also today, I received in the mail the official unemployment statics from the NH Employment Security Department and

read the following: Unemployment for MWV in January, 6.5 per cent. Unemployment for MWV in October, 4.7 per cent. (Some of the lowest unemployment in the nation!) So you see Dave, I guess getting rid of some of the progressive hogwash of the previous four years may have helped. Or do you think we need to hire another government employee to inspect our private homes? Don’t think so! Henry Mock Jackson

Waiting

As the calendar flips to December we embark together on yet a new season of waiting. Waiting for the snow. Waiting in lines and in holiday traffic. Waiting for exams and vacation for students. Waiting in airports and on tarmacs and for the weather to clear. Waiting for the magic of Christmas for many, and for the more ancient historical drama of Chanukah for others. Waiting for family to come home. Waiting for this old, tired year to come to a close. And perhaps above it all, waiting for the depth of the darkness, just as the sun sinks to its lowest ebb at the end of its long southern arc, turns slowly, and heads north again, signaled, as ever, by the solemn yet joyous brightness of the Winter Solstice and its welcome festival of light. We are not good at waiting, most of us, these days. And we have become less so as the pace of life has picked up around us. We have become an impatient world, and the immediacy of almost everything has created an imaginary myth about our ability to control things that the slow and steady march of time has, and will always, elude. This business of waiting is harder still for our children, most of whom will, a few short weeks from now, find out whether their hopes and dreams for gifts will at last come true. Deeply embedded in this contract is that very early childhood idea of trust, and no parent wants to be the first to break their children’s hearts. That will happen soon enough. And on top of it all, there is probably nothing more difficult than being six years old and faced with the double jeopardy of having to be good, while also having to wait. A friend has a perfect Santa’s elf stationed at crucial spots around the house, Santa’s ambassador spying and reporting back on the activities of the little ones. Waiting makes it just that much harder to be good, it seems. There is a conundrum that exists here that I find fascinating, and it has to do with the simple act of waiting. If all you do is focus on the waiting itself, the time stretches out interminably, sort of like what happens when a child watches the second hand of the clock on a warm and beautiful day just before the end of school. By only being aware of the time between now and what she or he really wants to do, time slows to a standstill and frustra-

There is probably nothing more difficult than being six years old and faced with the double jeopardy of having to be good, while also having to wait. tion and impatience creep in. If, however, you choose to fill that waiting time with something else — looking out the window, reading a book, talking to your neighbor, even breathing — you will likely find that the time simply disappears. I have proved this time and again while waiting at a stoplight. The minute I pick up the paper to read, the light changes to green and the driver behind me honks impatiently. I imagine that Christmas, and the holidays as a whole, were meant to be different than this; to be a time set aside to release us from the maelstrom, and burdens, of the day-to-day. A time to gather, and share, and catch up with one another if even for just one full, uninterrupted night and through the following day. A time to give loved ones gifts from the heart. A time to turn away from the distractions of modern life and remember, even for a moment, what matters. But so much is built into these short and harried weeks before Christmas that we seem to have forgotten that the joy we seek is actually found in each and every moment; the brief and precious time we have between now and then, and that even in the involuntary act of waiting, we can find joy. As you read this there will still be time remaining before Christmas. There will also be lines, and traffic, and empty shelves, and surely not enough money to pay for it all. There will probably be a snowstorm arriving at just the wrong time, and all this will conspire to rob us of why this season matters. And yet through it all we will still find our way to the light of whatever each of us believes to be honest and true. Built into the annual journey of these precious few weeks is the rising sense of anticipation that always accompanies waiting. Waiting, at last, for everything you ever dreamed of; and in the end may all your Christmas wishes come true. Tim Scott lives in Jackson.

KINDERGARTEN from page one

"The only way I'd be in favor of it would be if we could offset the cost by (special education) students returning to the district," Davison said. Klement didn't believe $170,000 would cover the cost of implementing the program. He thinks it will cost significantly more. He envisioned the start-up cost being in the neighborhood of $250,000. "I don't believe the dollar figure comes anywhere close to being accurate," he said. "That's why I'll be voting no." McLauchlan sees all-day kindergarten as more than just a way to save the district money. She views it as a positive in terms of providing children with a full day of instruction. All three elementary school principals this fall proposed adding allday kindergarten at their schools. They've presented a united front before the Conway School Board. The estimated cost is $170,931 for three teachers at $55,477 and $1,500 per school for supplies and equipment. 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 that 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, proposals have never reached the board in the past due to budget constraints. The three principals 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 its 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 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 prosee next page

THE CONWAY DAILY SUN, Friday, December 16, 2011— Page 9

from preceding page

gram 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. "• A full-day program is less of an inconvenience for parents who are currently being forced to find halfday care for their children." The three principals said at this time all three elementary schools have the physical space to accommodate all-day kindergarten. Currently, the New Hampshire Department of Education requires districts to provide only half-day kindergarten. The Bartlett School District offers full-day. There are currently 54 out-of-district special education placements from the Conway School District, 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. 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 kindergarten 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 need for full-day kindergarten will continue to rise as the number of students with autism reach kindergarten," the committee said in the report. "The district needs to look into developing a fullday kindergarten program and/or create alternatives to out-of-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 in-district."

PROTESTER from one

with Time's Person of the Year choice. Over a dozen members of the Unitarian Universalist Fellowship of the Eastern Slopes have been active in the local Occupy movement. "It's really cool," said Edes. "What a wonderful thing to recognize the normal person who stands up and says, 'I don't think so.'" Edes says Time's decision will likely come up Sunday during her service. In the past, people have focused on talking about the economy, she said. The protesters have changed the world conversation to talking about people. On Saturday, an offshoot of the local occupy movement, calling itself Professional and Egalitarian Association of Christmas Elves or P.E.A.C.E., will be in North Conway on Saturday to encourage shoppers to purchase American-made products. About a dozen

people in red elf hats are expected to distribute fliers about the virtues of buying American, said P.E.A.C.E. organizers Joe Bagshaw and his wife, Melinda Coyle, who are both happy to learn of Time's choice for Person of the Year. "It will be done in a fun way, not lecturing," said Bagshaw of Saturday's protest. Not everyone agrees that buying American is intrinsically a good thing. Former Carroll County Republican Committee chair Maynard Thomson said it's unhindered free trade that benefits America. "Why is it better for a manufacturer to pay more for widgets, in order to have them made in the U.S., than to buy them from China?" asks Thomson. "The extra cost has to be passed on, it makes the manufacturer less competitive, and the extra cost is a de facto tax paid by the consumer — an amount transferred from the consumer to

the pricier U.S. widget manufacturer." Thomson continued, “If I am forced to pay more for a widget than I’d have to pay in a truly free market, I’m not the only one worse off — because I’ve had to invest more of my resources in the widget than I’d have had to invest in a free market — I have fewer resources left to trade elsewhere.” Occupy protesters don't all have the same agenda. Some seem to focus on Citizens United, a recent Supreme court ruling regarding campaign finance, while other protesters focus on the gap between the rich and the poor. Last Saturday, Occupy members, like Davis, warned the public about a federal bill that they say calls for the indefinite detention of Americans accused of terrorism. Both U.S. Senators from New Hampshire supported versions of this bill. The protest was being held on International Human Rights Day, which was established on Dec. 10, 1948. Davis said he was going lead a protest on general human rights issues when he began to learn about the National Defense Authorization Act. "Once you say somebody is a legitimate military target, then all their rights evaporate" said Davis. "What alarms me the most is they they can allay our fears by saying 'it's only the bad people who need to worry.' The trouble is all kinds of people in different political parties have used language accusing people of terrorism when they didn't like what we were saying." Davis recalls that when he was active with the Clamshell Alliance, an anti-nuclearpower-plant group on the Seacoast, thengovernor Judd Gregg called the alliance members "terrorists." The National Defense Authorization Act will have a "chilling effect" on political discussion, Davis said. But U.S. Senators Democrat Jeanne Shaheen and Republican Kelly Ayotte have both see next page

THE CONWAY DAILY SUN, Friday, December 16, 2011— Page 13

supported versions of the bill because they say it gives clarity to detention policy in the war on terror. “These detainee provisions provide, for the first time, a clear articulation and codification of the practices already being used," said Shaheen. "We need to give our national security officials at home and abroad a clearly defined, yet flexible, system that protects both our Constitutional rights and our nation’s security. The language in the bill provides flexibility, but also clear and transparent rules of procedure, which are a bedrock legal principle of our constitutional system." Shaheen voted for an amendment that, if it had passed, would have prevented the detention of American citizens without trial until the end of hostilities. Ayotte's office has said Senate version of the National Defense Authorization Act doesn't change current law terms of detention of Americans, and the bill only applies to terrorists who are planning an attack on the United States or its allies. "Nothing in this section shall be construed to affect existing law or authorities relating to the detention of United States citizens, lawful resident aliens of the United States, or any other persons who are captured or arrested in the United States," states the National Defense Authorization Act. Occupy members aren't the only ones who disagree with the act. John Hutson who served as dean and president of the University of New Hampshire School of Law from July 2000 through January 2011, is also troubled. "I think it is a big problem to put the military in charge of detaining, investigating, prosecuting and incarcerating Americans and potentially detaining them indefinitely without charge or trial," said Hutson who was Judge Advocate General of the Navy from 1997 to 2000. Conway Police Lt. Chris Perley says the last time there have been this many protesters in Conway was at the start of the second Iraq war. Conway has not experienced the problems that larger communities have had with Occupy protests.

Occupiers in Conway have conducted themselves appropriately, said Perley, adding that's a credit to this community. Perley says he defends people's constitutional rights to speak. Some people commenting on The Conway Daily Sun's Facebook Page have been critical of the Occupy movement and Time's decision. "Rock-throwing rapists for Person of the Year?" writes Chris Sirois. "Way to go Time, and, no, I don't protest. I take action to effect change!" Lynda Kowal wrote that protesting is merely complaining. But Occupy protester Dick Pollock says it's amazing that in a few short months the protest movements could capture Time's Person of the Year award. What the Occupy movement shows, says Pollock, is people are "sick of business as usual." Protesters are doing the best they can to learn the issues that impact the nation, and Pollock predicts they will become more political as the presidential election goes on. Pollock said Republican primary front runner Mitt Romney seems to represent "business as usual," while President Barack Obama's intentions are unclear. Pollock saw Romney at a recent campaign stop in Madison. Ninety-two year old Harvey Stephenson, of Wolfeboro said the Occupy protesters have pursed a different path than the civil rights movement. At one recent Occupy protest, Stephenson carried a sign saying, "Screw us and we multiply." Civil rights protesters quickly established leaders and defined goals. In contrast, the Occupy movement has had general assemblies where everyone talks until there's consensus about what to do next. "I'm very interested to see how this all pans out," said Stephenson of the Occupy movement. Occupy protesters Diane Sinclair and her husband, Doug Bowen, of Porter, Maine, said they were pleased with Time's decision. However, Bowen says he wishes the magazine could have waited a year so that the protesters would have an opportunity to have more accomplishments. Sinclair added a contributor on National Public Radio's Fresh Air has named "Occupy" the word of the year. "It brought tears to my eyes," said Sinclair of Time's article. "It was really cool to see the whole picture."

Conway police on budget, but still understaffed BY ERIK EISELE THE CONWAY DAILY SUN

CONWAY — Police officials were pleased learn on Tuesday that the department might avoid going over budget at all this year, much less the $37,000 they had warned town offi-

cials they might be short earlier this fall. “It’s still very very close,” chief Ed Wagner told the police commission on Tuesday, but after calculating expenses through the end of the year “it looks like right now we’re at $2,600 remaining in our

budget.” “Well, that is better than we thought,” commission chair Theresa Kennett said. “That’s excellent,” said commissioner Rodney King. Police commissioners had gone to the selectmen in Septem-

ber to tell them they were expecting to be $37,000 in the red this year because of changes to the state retirement system and because two officers were leaving and taking large payouts of earned time. That had the town looking to gain permission

from the Department of Revenue Administration to overspend the budget because town officials were concerned Hurricane Irene-related expenses might make it impossible for the town to absorb the overage in the overall budget. The town eventually

decided not to approach the state, however, because officials determined the town budget wasn’t as close as they thought. Town manager Earl Sires said he didn’t want to go to the DRA and request permission to overspend the budget if the town wasn’t going to actually overspend. Doing that would hurt the town’s credibility, he said. And now it looks like the department won’t need the town to absorb anything. The projected $2,600 surplus is roughly 0.01 percent of the department’s $2.8 million operating budget, meaning the department has a thin margin if there are any unforeseen expenses over the next several weeks. “We’re going to keep a close eye on it,” Wagner said. “The only thing I don’t know that we pay out is overtime.” The reason the department has that small cushion, however, isn’t necessarily good news. The department has been unable to fill open officer positions, which has left money from unpaid salaries in their budget. So while the deficit has been eliminated, the force is still stretched thin. “We’ve had an open position since April,” Wagner said. The department has repeatedly run into “the inability to have qualified candidates to hire.” Every month that positions sat empty, he said, was time for money to accrue that could address the overages. Department officials, however, have been complaining for more than a year that the department needs more officers. When the department went to the town in September the commissioners told the selectmen that two officers were leaving, and the department was not in a position to leave those positions unfilled. The officers were getting back sick time and vacation time, which would put the department in a compromised position. The commissioners asked for and were granted permissee next page

Missouri man traverses state as candidate for president BY DAYMOND STEER THE CONWAY DAILY SUN

CONWAY — A Missouri man has come to New Hampshire to run for president and to fight for a balanced budget amendment to the U.S. Constitution. Michael J. Meehan, 57, of St. Louis, Mo., is one of 30 people on the New Hampshire Republican Primary ballot. His name is the 23rd down on the list on the sample ballot. Meehan makes his living as a landlord and has never held elected office before. "If I become the president of the United States, my job is to balance the budget with an amendment — no ifs, ands or buts," said Meehan. "If we don't do the balanced budget amendment, we're killing the future for the kids." from preceding page

sion to fill those positions right away, even if it meant going over budget. But despite the commissioners’ concerns, the department still had open positions, which allowed the department to scrape together the money. In that time, however, one arrest had to be canceled because the department didn’t have enough personnel to continue that arrest and respond to an armed robbery. Officials cited that instance as proof they need more people, even though they have been unable to fill the open position they have. “It’s been a trying year,” Wagner said.

CORRECTION Wednesday's story on "Like There's No Tomorrow," the ski film featuring Tuckerman Ravine, said the showing Friday is at the Attitash base lodge. That information was incorrect. The showing is at the Attitash Grand Summit Hotel. Doors open at 6 p.m. and the film starts at 7. Skier Chris Davenport will be signing books and posters at Ptarmigan’s in the Attitash base lodge between 3:30 and 4 p.m.

“If I become the president of the United States, my job is to balance the budget with an amendment — no ifs, ands or buts.” U.S. presidents don't have a role in the amendment process, according the Article Five of the U.S. Constitution. However, the

president still retains the power of the bully pulpit. Meehan came to New Hampshire on Nov. 9. Since then, he's

been touring seven towns per day. His travels have taken him from Keene to Pittsburg. Meehan's theory is many of the candidates have their name on the ballot just to say they are running for president. His goal is to finish fifth in the primary.

Meehan says 80 percent of people he speaks with say they would be willing to consider voting for an unknown candidate. "That's what keeps me going," said Meehan. For more information, visit www.michaelmeehanforpresident.com.

Michael J. Meehan, from St. Louis Mo., is on the Republican Presidential Primary ballot.

Chris Wong is Kennett High Employee of the Month

Language teacher Chris Wong has been named the Kennett High Employee of the Month for November.

CONWAY — Language teacher Chris Wong has been selected as the Kennett High School Employee of the Month for November. He was selected from several nominees. Candidates are nominated by their peers, with final voting taken by the administrative team at the high school following a brief review. Wong was nominated by math teacher Corinne Reidy. "I would like to nominate Chris Wong," she wrote. "I am not in his department or even on his floor, but as a new teacher he has offered me a considerable amount of guidance. I know he offers the same to his students. I was fortunate to witness several brief exchanges between Chris and his student mentee. Chris is clearly making a difference in that student’s life. Isn’t that what teaching is about?"

Arts in Motion’s ‘Life’ is heartwarming theater BY ALEC KERR

THE CONWAY DAILY SUN

CONWAY — “It’s a Wonderful Life” has been a holiday film classic for decades. For some the holidays aren’t complete without watching Jimmy Stewart as George Bailey, the man who doesn’t realize how significant his life truly is. But Arts in Motion is offering the chance to see a different version of this familiar favorite. This play version of “It’s a Wonderful Life,” adapted from the film by playwright James W. Rogers, is being performed at the Leura Hill Eastman

Performing Arts Center in Fryeburg, Maine Saturday, Dec. 17, at 1, 4 and 7 p.m. and Sunday, Dec. 18, at 1 and 4 p.m. Directed by Mary Bastoni-Rebmann, the production is an impressive technical achievement. It snows on that stage and it is pretty magical to see. There is some wonderful period costumes by Patty Hibbert. The set designed by Tom Rebmann effectively evokes the small-town quality of Bedford Falls. Many set pieces are wheeled in when necessary, the best being the bridge in which George (John Paiva) is contemplating his suicide. Paiva has a challenging role not

just because he’s the lead, but because Jimmy Stewart’s performance is so iconic and ingrained in people’s minds. The temptation is to do an impersonation, but then what’s the point in watching the new version? Paiva doesn’t merely imitate, which is good, but there’s something ever so slightly off about his performance and it is hard to pinpoint. Stewart has a naturalness to his performance that Paiva doesn’t quite have. He isn’t bad. He does have a strong stage presence and likability and in isolated moments he is solid. see LIFE page 20

Barefoot Truth at Fryeburg Academy tonight FRYEBURG — The eclectic rock band Barefoot Truth will perform at the Leura Hill Eastman Performing Arts Center located at 18 Bradley Street on the Campus of Fryeburg Academy on Friday, Dec. 16 at 7:30 p.m. Since the band’s establishment during college, Barefoot Truth has been developing this signature sound that has virally spread through a grassroots following. With their lead singer on drums, and an array of unlikely roots-based instrumentation, the band translates their originality to their ever-evolving live show. The quintet features Will Evans on lead vocals and drums, John Waynelovich on piano, Jay Driscoll on Weissenborn slide guitar, Andy Wrba on upright bass, and Garrett Duffy on harmonica. It is not unlikely for members of the band to switch instruments mid-show, or even begin playing a didjeridoo, adding to the dynamic of the band’s sound.

Mixing a strong environmental message with the lofty theme of humankind’s interconnectedness on their 2010 studio album ‘Threads’, Barefoot Truth reached #21 on the iTunes Rock Charts, momentarily stepping ahead of bands such as Dave Matthews Band and The Fray. The new disc was noted as “The best independently released album of 2010” by ThisIsModern. Sponsored by Fryeburg Academy’s Interact Club, a portion of the ticket sales will benefit Jen’s Friends. Group discounts are available to parties of 10 or more. Tickets are $18 for adults, $15 for seniors (65 and older) and $10 for students and may be purchased at the box office by calling (207) 935-9232 or online at www.fryeburgacademy.org/pac.

Her ski season is busy, filled with lots of miles for days at a time in the demo truck. "Life on the road is not as thrilling as it used to be for me," she commented. "Most people who knew me would remember me as someone constantly in the car driving to the next job or the next event, up and down the valley, back and forth across the country, and around the world. I thrived on motion and meeting new people." She now relishes her down time, a routine of home-cooked meals, reading, exercise, peace and tranquility. But life on the road exposes her to incredible people and opportunity. She meets all industry types from snowmakers to ski shop employees to resort presidents and big fish investors. "When everyone is bundled up with large hooded coats and goggles, it's hard to know who you're talking to so I always act like I could be talking to the most important person of the day and treat everyone the same," she explained. Road life requires and instills street smarts, independence, self-reliance and other traits during long days, late nights and ever-changing weather. To pass the time while driving, she listens to Prairie Home Companion re-runs, learning Swedish CDs, and blares Euro-pop at times. Anderson will be in the valley for

works well. It is in the second act of the show that we get the often parodied plot device of George getting to see what the world would be like if he was never born. During these scenes the show is building emotional energy, but then the dramatic thrust is brought to a halt with a scene involving carolers. The scene runs long, but is being tweaked before the show’s opening Saturday. The show ends brightly. The conclusion to “It’s a Wonderful Life,” much like “A Christmas Carol,” is full of such warmth and positivity that only the most bitter and cynical person would not be moved by it. In spite of myself, I felt some tears well up as George learned he truly does have a wonderful life. For more information call the box office at (207) 935-9232 or visit www. fryeburgacademy.org/pac.

The “You want the moon?” scene with Julie Lanoie as Mary Hatch, George’s love interest, is cute and sweet. Outside of the heartwarming conclusion, the most emotionally powerful and satisfying scene is when George and Mary decide to use their own money to keep the Building and Loan open during a low point in The Depression. This is a large cast full of wellknown characters like Clarence the angel (Craig Holden), Uncle Billy (Marshall Allen) and mean old Mr. Potter (Gino Funicella). Allen does nice work as the absent-minded Billy. Funicella has moments of menace as Potter, but is perhaps a bit too hammy. Holden was an obvious choice for Clarence, but sometimes typecasting

Thursday, a gloomy day that was so dismal, it earned a lowly day's rating from local weather observer Briggs Bunker of only a nickel on WMWV 93.5-FM's “Morning Show.” Was it a dumping of white fluff? No. But hey, it was a start, laughed Kathleen Harrigan and Steve Pelletier of Andes. “It's wet, but at least it's precipitation of a frozen manner,” said Kathleen, adding, “But maybe we need another burn.” Steve was also appreciative. “We'll take it. We at least had a little dusting,” said Steve, who divides his time between Alaska and the valley, bringing back nice smoked salmon he caught for friends, and hopefully, some snow, too. The burning of the skis tradition goes back well before Andes, when it was first held at private homes such as Russ van Deursen’s, related Steve. Former proprietor Jeremiah Beach — now of Colorado — kept it going after that. Jeremiah has been battling cancer, and friends made a toast to him at Tuesday's bonfire of burning skis, to wish him strength. “It's gotta be about 14 or 15 years that the burning has taken place. We did it up this year with some Alaskan candles — it's a way to slice some logs so they burn all naturally, like Alaskan Tiki Torches. We also saluted Jeremiah,” said Steve. Most of the sacrificed skis “had some years on them,” said Steve, but many were of more recent vintage:

“Some people made some strong sacrifices this year. Some people could be heard saying, 'Hey, those are better than what I'm skiing on this year.' ” laughed Steve. Approximately 60 people attended the bash, with Matty B's providing the wings and chili. With a forecast calling for a return to colder temperatures at night, there is hope for snowmakers to get back to their jobs, with most areas — including Cranmore, King Pine, and Wildcat — looking to join Bretton Woods and Attitash in being open, albeit with limited terrain in this so far warmer than normal month. “So yeah, there's hope with the return of snowmaking. But it appears that maybe we need to keep a fire going 24-7,” said Steve. In the past, as many readers may recall, yoga instructor Carlene Sullivan of Symmetree Yoga was called upon by Janice Crawford of the MWV Chamber to do a bikini snow dance, using snow crystals from Colorado. Some years, it worked. This year, Carlene would have to do her dance from afar, however — we just got a wonderfully sweet holiday greeting from her via e-mail from India. Maybe some Indian snow? It all would help, as the all-important Christmas week approaches. ••• SKIERS' HOMECOMING: Red Parka Pub bartender and avid skier Carl Farnum invoked the snow dance spirit at the Parka's annual Skiers' Homecoming Party, held last Friday night, as he at one point see next page

Tamworth Town Column

Ann McGarity amcgari@yahoo.com

Tamworth farmers’ Christmas market Saturday Christmas celebrations continued at the weekend with the town Christmas tree lighting ceremony at the Unitarian Universalist Fellowship of the Eastern Slopes church. The event began at the Tamworth Congregational church with carol singing Par-

ticipants walked or rode in Remick Farm wagons to the church at the Four Corners, where several people were already waiting upstairs in the warm meeting room. Santa arrived in a fire truck, escorted by the Tamworth police with bells and sirens. The tree

was lit and everyone gathered for music, carol singing, cookies and hot drinks. This event, combined the efforts of the Remick Museum, the Congregational and Unitarian Universalist Fellowship of the Eastern Slopes churches and the Tamworth

Historical Society. Thanks to everyone who made this event possible. Cook Memorial Library’s open house was very well attended this year. Everyone gathered downstairs to enjoy a splendid buffet. Rosy’s Restaurant catered a fantastic lasagna, and many other entrees, soups, salads and desserts were provided by the staff, trustees, Friends of the Library and patrons. Eventually most people went upstairs and joined in carol singing led by the Pot Luck Singers, and the K.A. Brett school choir, directed by Lisa Ferguson. Thanks to everyone who cooperated to make this event so memorable. After the open house a few of us ventured next door to the Tamworth Lyceum to enjoy the Christmas party hosted by the Small and Beginner Farmers of New Hampshire, a unique statewide network of people who farm or who are considering doing so. Members share resources, labor, advice, information and social support. They gather in monthly county meetings where members organize economical bulk buys on seeds, poultry and equipment rental, and experienced farmers help novices learn essential skills. For information about upcoming meetings in the area, or to join the group contact Kate Kerman at 876-4562 or e-mail: leader@sbfnh.org I was thrilled to be able to attend the long awaited performance of the Sandwich Singers at the Congregational Church in Tamworth Village. This was a truly traditional concert, with some of our most talented local singers and musicians sponsored by the Yeomen’s Fund for the Arts, and directed by Allan DiBiase and Peggy Johnson. The program featured traditional songs , and “Snow in the Street” with text from William Morris’s poem “The Land East of the Sun and West of the Moon” featuring Plymouth State University composers. I particularly enjoyed hearing the beautiful voices of Ellen Farnum, Rebekah see next page

Sports author weekend at White Birch Books this Saturday, Sunday CONWAY — The holiday author weekend program at White Birch Books concludes this weekend with a sports theme. Saul Wisnia, an avid Red Sox fan, will be at the bookstore on Saturday, Dec. 17, starting at 3 p.m. to talk about his new book, "Fenway Park, The Centennial: 100 Years of Red Sox Baseball." On the following Sunday, Dec. 18, starting at 2 p.m., Jeff Leich will be on hand to talk about his newly revised and greatly expanded book, "Over the Headwall: A History of Skiing in Tuckerman Ravine."

Born just blocks away from Fenway Park, Wisnia has been a lifelong fan of the Boston Red Sox. He was just 8 when he sat in the outfield grandstand at Fenway Park for game six of the 1975 World Series, an unforgettable night capped by the dramatic home run that Carlton Fisk coaxed into hitting the foul pole in the bottom of the 12th. Then came the opportunity to interview his childhood heroes for a new book and he jumped on it. Fenway Park celebrates a century’s worth of

memories – from the epic feats of Babe Ruth, Jimmie Foxx and Ted Williams, to the explosive jubilation of the recent runs to the championship. As an added bonus, the book also contains a DVD documentary of the Golden Age of Fenway Park, narrated by Carlton Fisk himself. Leich completely updating his book, "Over the Headwall." The second edition contains more than 150 pages of pictures and stories about Tuckerman Ravine, site of the most dramatic and see next page

Robert K. French

Robert K. French, 92, of Brownfield Road in Eaton, passed away suddenly on Wednesday, Dec. 14, 2011, at Memorial Hospital in North Conway. He was born on Feb. 20, 1919 in Auburn, Maine, son of Frank and Florence “Briggs” French. He graduated from high school in Andover, Maine, and married his high school sweetheart, Mary Esther Abbott. For many years, Robert and Mary were active members of the Elmwood Grange. They were married for forty years and raised five children. Most of his working career was spent at John F. Chick and Son Lumber Mill where he eventually became a foreman. Even after he retired, they would call him in to fix a piece of equipment when it broke down. In his spare time, prior to retirement, he liked to fish, hunt, camp and snowmobile. Upon retirement, it was hard for him to relax and sit still so he took up the woodcutting business. He made some mighty big stacks of wood using his chain saw, wood splitter, and beloved Kubota tractor. He used all of his equipment well up until the time when his knees would no longer allow him to continue in the wood pile. Robert was predeceased by his wife, Mary, and two sons, Keith and Marshall. He is survived by three children, a daughter, Linda Ranger and her husband, John, of Westbrook, Maine, a daughter, Carol Perk and her husband, Bill, of Eaton, and a son, Frank French and his wife, Pat, also of Eaton. There are also 13 grandchildren and sixteen great grandchildren. Visiting hours will be held on Friday, Dec. 16, from 6 to 8 p.m. at the Furber and White Funeral Home on Main Street in North Conway. There will be a service on Saturday, Dec. 17, at 11 a.m., at the same location to celebrate the life of a good friend, loving husband, and beloved father. He will be greatly missed by many.

Ronald J. Libby Ronald J. Libby, 64, of Mount Shaw Road in Ossipee passed away suddenly Sunday, Dec. 11, 2011 at his home. Call hours will be Saturday, Dec. 17, from 6 to 8 p.m. at Lord Funeral Home in Wolfeboro. Funeral services will be at a later date.

By Holiday Mathis honest opinion will be appreciated by one who has proved strong enough to hear the truth. That same opinion might simply be too much for a person who is less mature. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You never stop improving. Your commitment to making life for you and yours better and better will be the driving force behind your choices for the next three days. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Rules and contracts may be restrictive, but those restrictions may not be enforced. People deal with other people -- not with paper. Agreements come together outside of the norm. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). People around you may use sarcasm so they don’t have to show their true emotions. Your compassion will help you see beyond what’s being said and understand the deeper emotional implications. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You won’t be met with rejection, but your ideas may be confronted with indifference. That’s almost worse than a strong “no” if you let it hang you up in limbo land. Move forward with velocity. TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Dec. 16). You’ll benefit from a holistic approach to living. Adjustments in diet and your choice of entertainment will have a profound effect on seemingly unrelated areas such as your professional and romantic life. Education figures prominently into the year. Financial risk will bring a February reward. Your family expands in June. Taurus and Scorpio people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 11, 20, 14, 39 and 5.

Get Fuzzy

ARIES (March 21-April 19). Your ability to help others will depend on seeing how they really need help and -perhaps more importantly -- how they don’t. Some kinds of help will make things worse. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). There are times when you think that being shy isn’t acceptable. You will feel compelled to reach out and risk rejection, partly because you see potential benefit and partly because it’s the right thing to do. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Becoming a superstar depends on completing several actions in the direction of your dreams -- not just one or two. Go over the top wherever possible. Use your imagination. CANCER (June 22-July 22). If someone is pulling you down, say goodbye for a while. The break could be the best thing that ever happened to you or the other person. It’s nice to know where you stand as an individual, outside of the context of a group. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You have a way of making things work out for the more neurotic people in your crowd. You calm them and help them relax into all that’s going on beyond their control. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You are highly influential now, so use your powers for good. You can convince someone to do what’s right even though it might also be the more difficult choice available. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You have no desire to do what everyone else is doing. In fact, there is so much activity going on around you that you may feel the need to sequester yourself to get some peace and quiet. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Your

Yesterday’s Answer

THE CONWAY DAILY SUN, Friday, December 16, 2011— Page 29

Today is Friday, Dec. 16, the 350th day of 2011. There are 15 days left in the year. Today’s Highlight in History: On Dec. 16, 1811, the first of the powerful New Madrid earthquakes, with an estimated magnitude of 7.7, struck the central Mississippi Valley. (There were, according to the U.S. Geological Survey, three main shocks in all; the second struck in Jan. 1812 and the third was in Feb. 1812.) On this date: In 1653, Oliver Cromwell became lord protector of England, Scotland and Ireland. In 1773, the Boston Tea Party took place as American colonists boarded a British ship and dumped more than 300 chests of tea into Boston Harbor to protest tea taxes. In 1809, the French Senate granted a divorce decree to Emperor Napoleon I and Empress Josephine (the dissolution was made final the following month). In 1907, 16 U.S. Navy battleships, which came to be known as the “Great White Fleet,” set sail on a 14-month round-theworld voyage to demonstrate American sea power. In 1944, the World War II Battle of the Bulge began as German forces launched a surprise attack against Allied forces in Belgium (the Allies were eventually able to beat the Germans back). In 1951, a Miami Airlines Curtiss C-46 Commando crashed just after takeoff from Newark Airport in New Jersey, killing all 56 people on board. In 1960, 134 people were killed when a United Air Lines DC-8 and a TWA Super Constellation collided over New York City. In 1976, the government halted its swine flu vaccination program following reports of paralysis apparently linked to the vaccine. In 1991, the U.N. General Assembly rescinded its 1975 resolution equating Zionism with racism by a vote of 111-25. One year ago: The House joined the Senate in passing a massive bipartisan tax package preventing a big New Year’s Day tax hike for millions of Americans. Today’s Birthdays: Actress Joyce Bulifant is 74. Actress Liv Ullmann is 73. CBS news correspondent Lesley Stahl is 70. TV producer Steven Bochco is 68. Former Nevada Gov. Jim Gibbons is 67. Pop musician Tony Hicks (The Hollies) is 66. Pop singer Benny Andersson (ABBA) is 65. Actor Ben Cross is 64. Rock singer-musician Billy Gibbons (ZZ Top) is 62. Rock musician Bill Bateman (The Blasters) is 60. Actor Xander Berkeley is 56. Actress Alison LaPlaca is 52. Actor Sam Robards is 50. Actor Jon Tenney is 50. Actor Benjamin Bratt is 48. Country singer-songwriter Jeff Carson is 48. Actor Daniel Cosgrove is 41. Rhythm-and-blues singer Michael McCary is 40. Actor Jonathan Scarfe is 36. Country musician Chris Scruggs is 29. Actress Hallee Hirsh is 24. Actress Anna Popplewell is 23.

by Abigail Van Buren

GENERATION GAP CAN CAUSE A FAILURE TO COMMUNICATE

DEAR ABBY: My fiancee said, “Shut UP!” during a recent conversation with my mom, using the phrase in the same way people say, “No way!” or, “Get outta here!” to express friendly disbelief. Mom didn’t say anything and gave me no reason to believe she was offended; however, I find talk like that better suited to friends and siblings -- not parents or future in-laws. As soon as we were alone I asked my fiancee to please not use that expression with my parents. She said she’d try, but warned me that it might be hard to stop herself. A frequent reader of your column, she also said you probably would have told me to let it go. I suggested we find out. Should I have said nothing? -- POSSIBLE PRUDE IN NEW HAMPSHIRE DEAR POSSIBLE PRUDE: Your fiancee is mistaken. I would never advise someone to ignore something that could be offensive. You were right to speak up. For people in your parents’ generation, “shut up” has a different connotation than with younger people and could be considered offensive. I hope your intended will take your suggestion to heart. However, in case she should slip, explain to your folks that the phrase is used commonly and isn’t meant as an insult -- as jarring to them as it may be to hear. DEAR ABBY: I have had the same group of friends for 20 years. They are an affluent group -- doctors, lawyers, etc. -and very social. My best friend got wind of the fact that I had gone out with an African-American man. She confronted me, told me we could no longer be friends and then kicked me out of her house. If I call her, she hangs up on me. We had a loving, longtime friendship. It has been five months now and NO ONE has called. I am sad and shocked. I

always thought of her as my best friend, and my other friends who were also dear to me are shunning me as well. What should I do? -- OUTCAST IN THE SOUTH DEAR OUTCAST: I know this has been painful, but you need to recognize that in spite of their educational and financial advantages, your friends’ thinking hasn’t changed despite nearly 50 years of improving race relations. You grew; they didn’t. For your own sake, you must accept that you and these people are on different paths and will never agree on this. Look elsewhere for companions who think more like you do. Believe me, there are many out there. DEAR ABBY: With the holidays here and family gathering to celebrate, some will be overnight guests. Although we have had pets here in the past, my wife and I are older now. Our home has been remodeled and we no longer have pets because we don’t have time to properly maintain an animal. We also travel frequently and don’t want to leave a pet in a kennel. My point is, if people are guests during one of these gatherings, please check first to see if pets are welcome. I know some relatives may feel their pet is one of the family, but they need to consider it may be a burden for the homeowner. Thanks for getting my message out, Abby. -- “THE OLD GUY” IN WISCONSIN DEAR “OLD GUY”: Excuse me? What if the family members your message is intended for happen to miss reading my column? Because you want to ensure the message is received, the most effective method to do that would be to speak up and make your wishes known in advance -- especially in a case like this one.

Ace Tarberry to race in his first World Cup today –––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– SPORTS –––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––

track when a thick fog bank settled on the top of the course. There was a lengthy pause after Wiley Maple ran in 45th, and was picked up later and run through Canada’s Louis-Pierre Helie in 58, halted and restarted again. There were 79 skiers on the start list. The race had been stopped again with four skiers remaining to run at this report. Tarberry, son of Joy Tarbell and Joe Berry, was the final racer allowed on course Wednesday and he finished in 2:12.14. Other U.S. Ski Team finishers were Erik Fisher, 15th, 2:04.03; Marco Sullivan, 27th, 2:05.03; Travis Ganong, 32nd, 2:05.19; Wiley Maple, 46th, 2:06.37; and Andrew Weibrecht, 2:07.66. Olsson also won Thursday’s training run in 1:57:48. Austrian Klaus Kroell was second, 1:58.70; and Tobias Stechert, of Germany, was third, 1:59.24.

Miller was the top American in 16th, 2:00.24 followed by teammates Sullivan, 29th, 2:01.22; Fisher, 33rd, 2:01.51; Ganong, 37th, 2:01.70; Maple, 39th, 2:01.78; Weibrecht, 58th, 2:03.38; and Tarberry, 69th, 2:04.95. With nine major jumps and 17 bumps the Saslong course is a unique challenge many World Cup racers look forward to season after season. The Super G race is today and the downhill race tomorrow. Tarberry will race in both the Super G and the downhill. He will then get further World Cup starts at Bormio, Italy Dec. 27-29 in Downhill and Super G. Tarberry was named this summer to his first stint on the C-Team and is among six Granite Staters on the alpine team.

LACONIA — The Kennett High hockey team scored early and often as it opened the 2011-12 season in style with a 12-0 victory over LaconiaWinnisquam at Laconia Ice Arena. The Division III state runner-ups only took three shots over the final 20 minutes of play against the Wolf Pack, who is coming off a winless 2010-11 campaign. “Laconia is having a rough time of things,” Michael Lane, Eagles’ head coach, said. “Our guys were respectful of their situation. … We came ready to play early on and the kids really worked hard. They were pumped up for opening night. We all remembered starting out 0-2 last year and didn’t want that to happen again.” Kennett took the lead for good just over a minute into play Wednesday with Connor Todd scoring scoring off an asset from Dillon Smith and Kevin Murphy, who was returning following a bout with

pneumonia. Thirty seconds later it was Smith who lit the lamp off an assist from Murphy and freshman Robert Moody, who tallied his first career point on the play. Defenseman Chris King made it 3-0 when he uncorked a laser from the blue line for a power-play tally with Nick Massa collecting the assist. Murphy scored two goals a minute apart with assists from Todd and Smith to make it 5-0. Justin Munck scored from Massa and then James Gallo found the back of the net on a backdoor pass from Gabe Lee to close out the first period scoring with the Eagles in front 7-0. Kennett added five more goals in the second period: Lee from Smith; Brad Canavari from Lee; Anthony LaRusso unassisted; Lee unassisted; and Moody from Munck. Senior goalie John Bishop played the first two periods in net before giving way to freshmen Josh Kondrat and Bobby Davis, who split third period duties.

Kennett will play its home-opener tomorrow at 6 p.m. at Ham Ice Arena against visiting John Stark/ Hopkinton. The Generals, who were picked for seventh in the most recent Hockey Night in Boston preseason poll for Division III, is off to a 1-1 start this season. Wednesday they defeated highly touted Belmont-Gilford 7-4 at home. The win came on the heels of a 3-1 opening season loss at home to Souhegan two days earlier. “It should be a real good game for us on Saturday,” Lane said. “John Stark is skiing well.” Following Saturday’s game, the Eagles will host their annual “Skate with the Eagles,” a show of appreciation by the team to all MWV Youth Hockey Players, season ticket holders and general admission patrons. You can skate with the team and even collect autographs as well as take photos with the players. “I think it’s come to be something the players, coaches and the community look forward to each year,” Lane said.

Ace Tarberry, skiing in his first World Cup this week was 69th and 70th in the first training runs Thursday and Wednesday at Val Gardena-Groeden in Italy. Bode Miller, of Franconia, was the top American on Wednesday finishing second in a fog forced stutter start-stop-start training run. Sweeden’s Hans Olsson clocked the fastest time down Val Gardena’s Saslong downhill track, finishing in 2:02.42. He was followed by Miller, 2:02.77, and Romed Baumann, of Austria, who finished in a rare tie in 2:02.77. While fresh snow was a major factor, it was fog that caused the delays. The run was halted the first time after just a handful of skiers had tested the
