OSSIPEE — The Maine man who escaped from Carroll County jail last Thursday was apprehended in Rochester on Tuesday evening and went to court on Wednesday — his 34th birthday. Bail was set at $500,000. The ordeal left the county jail superintendent
"extremely frustrated" because he said county budget makers haven't given him enough money to seal the jail's perimeter or have an adequate number of corrections officers. Authorities had been searching for David Glenn Hobson, 34, of York County, Maine, who made his escape on Thursday by jumping off the jail's roof and climbing over the jail's razor wire. see CAUGHT page 9

CONWAY — Voters, not the school board, will have the ultimate say whether the number of teaching teams at Kennett Middle School is reduced from four to three next year. A reduction in teams would mean a reduction in staff costs, but some board members are concerned that the quality of education would be compromised. The issue came before the Conway School Board's see TEAMS page 8 Help your community and save money with the Portland Glass Holiday Food Drive!

Is sleeping on the subway worthwhile?
NEW YORK (NY Times) — A ride on a New York subway can be a sensory overload: sometimes musicians perform for change; conductors plead to those who hold open train doors to relent; and passengers, often in unimaginably close proximity, subject one another to all sorts of sights, sounds, smells and touches, preferably inadvertent. Amid all of that, some New Yorkers nevertheless manage to fall asleep. So are these naps really worth the trouble? Dr. Carl Bazil, director of the Epilepsy and Sleep Division at New York-Presbyterian Hospital/Columbia University Medical Center, offered to try to find out. Dr. Bazil, who has studied sleep patterns for 20 years, says there are five stages of sleep, with Stage 1 being the least restorative. To reach Stage 1 sleep, riders must be able slow down their eye movements. To get even more productive Stage 2 sleep, riders must relax their muscles and stop moving their eyes entirely. As Dr. Bazil watched the riders sitting across from him, the nappers’ eyelids fluttered when train doors opened. The riders also seemed to clench their messenger bags and backpacks with death grips. “I suspect all you get is Stage 1 sleep; it’s not going to be restorative,� he said. “It’s kind of wasted sleep.�

Plan to widen availability of morning-after pill rejected
––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– WORLD/NATION–––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––
WASHINGTON (NY Times) — Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius on Wednesday overruled the Food and Drug Administration’s decision that emergency contraceptives be sold freely over the counter, including to teenagers 16 years old and younger. The pill, called Plan B OneStep, has been available without a prescription to women
17 and older, but those 16 and younger have needed a prescription — and still will because of Sebelius’s decision. In some states, pharmacists can write the prescription on the spot for teenagers. But the restrictions have meant the pills were only dispensed from behind the counter — making them more difficult for everyone to get. The pill, if taken after unprotected sex,
halves the risk of a pregnancy. Under the law, Sebelius has the authority to overrule the agency, but no health secretary has ever done so, according to an FDA spokeswoman. Her decision on an emotional issue that touches on parental involvement in birth control for teens is likely to have powerful political reverberations in a presidential election season.
Blagojevich sentenced to 14 years in prison CHICAGO (NY Times) — Rod R. Blagojevich, the former governor of Illinois, was sentenced on Wednesday to 14 years in federal prison for 18 felony corruption convictions, including trying to sell or trade the Senate seat that President Obama left behind when he moved to the White House. The sentence, which fell just short of what prosecutors had asked for, came about an hour after Blagojevich apologized in court to residents of his state, to the judge in his case and to his family. “I have nobody to blame but myself for my stupidity and actions, words, things that I did,
that I thought I could do,� he said, standing at a courtroom lectern and facing the judge. Blagojevich’s crimes carried maximum sentences that could have stretched into hundreds of years behind bars, but federal prosecutors had argued that he deserved at least 15 to 20 years in prison. Blagojevich’s lawyers were seeking far less, saying simply that they were advocating for “the lowest sentence possible.� Blagojevich, a Democrat who won two terms as governor before being impeached and removed from office, will become Illinois’s fourth governor in recent memory to go to prison.
Japan split on hope for vast nuclear cleanup
FUTABA, Japan (NY Times) — Futaba is a modern-day ghost town — not a boomtown gone bust, not even entirely a victim of the devastating earthquake and tsunami that leveled other parts of Japan’s northeast coast. Its traditional wooden homes have begun to sag and collapse since they were abandoned in March by residents fleeing the nuclear plant on the edge of town that began spiraling toward disaster. Roofs possibly damaged by the earth’s shaking have let rain seep in, starting the rot that is eating at the houses from the inside. The roadway arch at the entrance to the empty town almost seems a taunt. It reads: “Nuclear energy: a correct understanding brings a prosperous lifestyle.� Those who fled Futaba are among the nearly 90,000 people evacuated from a 12-mile zone around the Fukushima Daiichi plant and another area to the northwest contaminated when a plume from the plant scattered radioactive cesium and iodine.

Business leaders buy N.H. agrees to repay $35m Balsams Grand Resort in Medicaid payments
THE CONWAY DAILY SUN, Thursday, December 8, 2011— Page 3
BY BOB HOOKWAY THE UNION LEADER
DIXVILLE NOTCH — Balsams View, LLC, a partnership of New Hampshire North Country business leaders, Daniel Dagesse and Daniel Herbert, Jr., has purchased the Balsams Grand Resort and Hotel from the Tillotson Corporation for $2.3 million. Hebert and Dagesse have been interested in preserving the landmark hotel for more than a year, and made a new offer in recent weeks that met Tillotson's criteria. "We care deeply about restoring the Balsams Grand Resort Hotel to its full glory as a world-class destination resort and seeing it thrive for decades to come," said Daniel Hebert. "We want to provide a stable operation that we can all be proud of." It is anticipated that extensive renovations to the Balsams will take approximately 18 months. Hebert said the first step is to winterize the hotel and decom-
mission the biomass plant. Architects and engineers will then evaluate the property and formulate a renovation plan. Hebert noted the Balsams' last renovations occurred more than 40 years ago, and much work needs to be done. "We are committed to preserving the jobs of Balsams employees and the overall economic benefits that the hotel provides the North Country and the State,” Hebert said. “We recognize closing the hotel over an extended period for renovations will be difficult for employees, but it is absolutely necessary to ensure the resort's long-term viability." Hebert said Balsams View is committed to employing numerous North Country contractors and workers on the renovation project. Daniel Hebert operates a privately held general contracting business, Daniel Hebert, Inc., which recently completed an addition to the Coös County Nursing Home in West Stewartstown, and previously completed extensive renovations to the Weeks Medical Center in Lancaster.
N.H. Pearl Harbor survivor vividly remembers attack MERRIMACK — Bill Lefabvre is 91 years old, but was little more than a teenager when a Japanese plane flew over his head at Pearl Harbor 70 years ago. Lefabvre was raised in Manchester and joined the Navy out of high school. He was stationed at Pearl Harbor on Dec. 7, 1941 aboard the USS West Virginia. Lefabvre says he was ashore when he saw a large group of planes flying in over the harbor. At first, he says, he thought they were American planes, but when he saw the big, red insignia on the wing and heard the first bombs, he knew Pearl Harbor was under attack. Lefabvre says the concussion from one of the first bombs blew him right out of his clothes and landed him in the water. He says he swam to shore and got some clothes from the supply hut and started screaming to anyone who could
hear him that they were under attack. Lefabvre is now the chairman of the New Hampshire Pearl Harbor Survivors and lives with his wife of 66 years in Merrimack. He is one of only about 20 New Hampshire survivors of Pearl Harbor who are still living. Lefabvre says memories of the attack are still vivid and he never wants anyone to forget what happened. He wasn’t scared during the attack. He was angry, and he wanted to get back at the people who were bombing him and his comrades. He says he used to give talks to local students about that terrible day but has gotten too old to do that. But Lefabvre will still tell his story to anyone who asks, hoping to keep a true record of that attack alive. —Courtesy of WMUR
CONCORD — New Hampshire will return $35 million in Medicaid payments for failure to comply with Medicaid requirements in 2004. The New Hampshire Attorney General’s Office released a repayment schedule on Tuesday, calling for quarterly payments in excess of $4 million each year over the next two fiscal years. The funds were used in 2004 to help 26 hospitals in the state offset costs of treating their most vulnerable
patients. The funds went to hospitals that serve a disproportionate share of low income or uninsured patients. The state appealed a federal ruling that it must repay the funds and recently lost a motion for reconsideration of the adverse ruling. The money will be repaid to the federal health department’s Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services. CMS disqualified the $35 million in 2009. —Courtesy of WMUR
New local T-shirt company focuses on crazy dog antics MANCHESTER — A new T-shirt company has recently been launched in New Hampshire that’s based on the antics of some crazy dogs. Jeff Johnson said his chocolate lab Stella was the initial inspiration for the shirt line, Agape T-Shirts. He said his dog does all kinds of nutty things, like opening the refrigerator and helping herself. He got together with his friend Craig Burrell, who has three springer Spaniels that have a tendency to get
into trouble. They’ve created four T-shirts based on their experiences and hope to produce a lot more. “People love their pets. They love cats, and they love dogs, and it’s a billion-dollar industry. It’s one of the largest whatever in the United States, and I think people relate to them,” Burrell said. The company started selling its shirts about two months ago and is just about sold out of their first order. —Courtesy of WMUR

Stimulus prevented ‘Great Depression 2.0’ To the editor: Maynard Thomson is at it again using derogatory language to cast aspersions on those with whom he disagrees. The real delusion is not in Carol Shea-Porter’s claims about the stimulus, it’s in his lack of acknowledgement of what has actually occurred. If you want to know whether a policy has succeeded or failed, you look at the results and trends, not at some prior estimate. Before the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009, commonly referred to as “the stimulus” went in effect, the economy was heading toward disaster fast, contracting at an annual rate of 6 percent and bleeding 750,000 jobs a month. Stimulus money, accepted by both Democrat and Republican governors throughout the country, stopped the hemorrhage and stabilized the economy. It has been quite comical to see so many anti-Stimulus hawks proudly taking credit for Stimulus projects that they condemned. Our own Congressman Frank Guinta was recently grandstanding, praising and taking credit for the new
access road at the Manchester airport, even though he continually opposes the use of federal money for such projects. Two prominent economists, Alan S. Blinder and Mark Zandi (John McCain’s economic advisor during his campaign), cited by Shea-Porter, analyzed the impact of the stimulus. They concluded that it prevented “what could have been called Great Depression 2.0.” According to their analysis, the Stimulus created almost 3 million jobs, added $460 billion to our gross domestic product, and without it, unemployment would be much higher than it is now. Economists in the finance industry have also agreed. A graph of the percent change in employment (from Bureau of Labor Statistics employment figures) clearly shows employment rocketing upwards starting in the fourth quarter of 2009, when stimulus money reached the economy. You are certainly entitled to your opinion but not to your own personalized facts. Beth Funicella Jackson

I can’t see how this helps the country in any way To the editor: It’s too bad that when the country is at war and facing an economic collapse, some citizens and politicians choose to focus on trying to prevent gay people from marrying each other. Another major mission for them is forcing women to give birth against their will. Vast amounts of energy and
resources are spent pursuing these bizarre crusades. I can’t see how this helps the country in any way. And in the meantime, nothing is done about the real crises that we face. Future U.S. historians (if there are any) will look back on this period as the Age of Stupidity. Heather-Rose Ryan Intervale

Some research on Underhill and Indians of New England To the editor: After reading the story of the Indian skeleton discovered in Freedom I would like to share some recent research on Capt. Underhill and the Indians of New England. The odyssey in America of Capt. John Underhill and the Indians began in 1630 and enlightens us to the complexity of Indian relations. Underhill at the age of 33 arrived as a military trainer for the newly formed Puritan, Massachusetts Bay Company. When Capt. Underhill died in 1672 he had taken part in confrontations with the Indian tribes and English settlers of Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Connecticut, also with the Dutch colony (New York) their Indians and settlers. The America of Capt. Underhill is filled with native Americans and new Americans all warring with each other. In 1636 Underhill is a commander involved in the Pequot massacre or the Mystic massacre named after the town where it occurred in Connecticut. The Pequot are disliked by the Narragansett Indians and the tribes conspire against each other. The Pequot are involved with escalating revenge attacks against the English and Dutch responsible for a lethal unprovoked attack. It ends when the Pequot village of 400 is surrounded by armed colonists and Narragansett archers and burned to the ground allowing no survivors. The Pequot had a peace treaty with the Narragansett. The Narragansett Indians understood the implications of breaking a peace treaty and did not want survivors seeking revenge even though their treaty was just a puff of tobacco. The massacre began a rift caused by differing views in the colonies and the military on how the attack was conducted. Later, Underhill is sent by the Governor of Massachusetts to reinforce the fort protecting the new plantation in Connecticut from the Indians and Dutch settling New Netherland later called New York. Capt. Underhill was of influential English ancestry but raised in Denmark and married a Danish woman and spoke Dutch. Months later Underhill returns to England and publishes a pamphlet with his account of the Pequot massacre complete with a detail drawing depicting Indians with bows and men with guns surrounding the stockade village of the Pequot, the drawing looks like an eye with the iris the Pequot encampment. On the Captain’s return to Massachusetts he was summoned by Governor Winthrop and other Puritan officials to answer to a charge of seditious remarks made to a young maid who claimed she had relations with Underhill on his return voyage. Adultery was an offence punishable by death but he was banished instead to the province of New Hampshire. He addressed a Puritan assembly and claimed he got his grace
from the moderate use of Tobacco, as he departed for Dover, N.H. Underhill is making treaties with the Indians of New Hampshire along with Darby Field also of influential English ancestry. Field is an Indian interpreter employed by Massachusetts beginning in 1636 before his exodus to New Hampshire. By 1640 Underhill and Field sign documents for self government for their respective towns of Dover and Exeter. The documents become mute when the Province of New Hampshire capitulates to Massachusetts and their jurisdiction in 1641. Underhill is pardoned by the Puritans with the understanding that he deal with Indian issues in Connecticut. He obtains deeds from the Indians with the promise of free trade and rights to hunt and the threat of war if they don’t also the offer of protection from other Indian tribes. By 1643 Underhill has jumped ship and joins the Dutch — the same colony that Underhill was reinforcing defenses against for the Puritans in 1637. Underhill resolves the Indian hostilities confronting the Dutch by 1645 completing the surrender of Indian lands of the Dutch and Federated colonies of New England. The surrounding Indian tribes, Puritans, Dutch and English settlers gave thanks. Capt. Underhill was granted a plot of land by the Dutch, near the barricade for defense from the Indians, today the grounds of Trinity church in Manhattan. Underhill is involved with disputes with Dutch, and crossed the barricade that was constructed for defense against the Indians and English colonists and is once again a military commander for the English in 1653. The Dutch had previously imprisoned Underhill for demanding the overthrow of the government. The barricaded boundary reinforced in defense of Underhill is today known as Wall Street and gives a revolutionary precedent to “occupy wall street.” Underhill returns to New Amsterdam later named New York under British control and the barricade removed, he died a Quaker. The Indian hostilities died down from the confrontations of 1636-1646 but flared up again after Underhill’s death and a change of policy towards the Indians by the Puritans by 1675. A more positive view demonstrates that peace is possible when treaties are honored, people are treated with dignity and religious factions can be tethered to a rock that binds them in peace; it is a work in progress. Capt. Underhill was not prosecuting for revenge but as a military commander prosecuting for peace between the warring Indians and colonies and was a New American. According to Underhill the Indians of NH were the most peaceful. Michael Callis Eaton

budget committee and has been raised due to a continuing decline in student enrollment, with a projected 289 middle school students next year. Board member Lynne Brydon made a motion to restore the four-team format at a cost of $98,166, but the motion ended in a 4-4 deadlock and thus failed. Brydon, Janine McLauchlan, Syndi White and John Skelton voted for four teams while Rick Breton, Randy Davison, Dick Klement and Jane Gray, of Eaton and chair of the SAU 9 Board and member of the Conway School Board's budget committee, voted against keeping four teams. Brydon then asked if the item could be placed on the warrant as an article, and that motion sailed through by unanimous vote. Brydon made a passionate argument to remain in a four-team format. A team consists of four teachers (math, science, social studies and language arts) who team-teach a group of students. The teams offer a coordinated plan for the students while allowing teachers the flexibility to individualize instruction. "I look at the budget and Kevin (Richard, middle school principal) is the only one that came in under budget and
that's because we cut a team," Brydon said. "I have some serious concerns about going in this direction. I think that Kevin was put into a corner when the (enrollment) numbers got below 300. "I really don't know how the threeteam approach is going to work," she continued. "I think it's a bad idea." Gray pointed out that last year the budget committee supported keeping the four-team model for one more year, but agreed to reduce it if numbers were below 300. Davison said the optimum size for a team is between 80 and 120 students. Under three teams there would 93 students per team next year, he said. He pointed out that in 2003, the middle school made up of seventh and eighth graders had a student population of 403 students. "I think it's doable and I think in good faith to our promise last year, it's time," Davison said. "I fiscally and educationally believe this is sound. White praised Richard for his budget management. "The fact he's been willing to cut other positions so he doesn't have to compromise education is comsee next page

mendable," she said. "Look at the scores at the middle school, we're seeing nothing but improvement going on." Richard explained that even if the four-team model was returned, his budget would still be down 2 percent. "If I came forward in September and said I'm going to bring you a 2 percent decrease, I think you'd have been happy. You hired me to be the educational leader for the middle school and I try to do so while being fiscally responsible. No offense but I think I know what works best within my building." Richard followed up with a question for the budget committee. "I guess I'm looking for clarity," he said. "Is it a student-to-teacher ratio you're looking for or a per-pupil cost? I'm having a hard time answering the question. I could come in at a 4 percent reduction and not cut a team and you still wouldn't be happy." Richard, who conceded a few years ago that when enrollment got down to 300 students that it might be time to look at a cut, thinks the four-team approach is paying educational dividends. He said it doesn't have to be a four- or three-team option only; it could be a variation and possibly a three-and-a-half-team approach. Currently there are 152 seventh graders at the middle school (which projects to 142 for next year) broken up into two teams. There are five staff members for those teams covering math, science, social studies, language arts and reading. According to Richard, only in one block a day are all five teachers holding classes at the same time. Each teacher is contractually provided a prep block, thus students are only slotted in four classes. He said team time is provided when students attend unified arts There are currently 74 students in Team 1 with an actual class size of 16.3 students and 78 students in Team 2 with an actual class size of 18.3 students. The lowest class size is 14 students for reading while the largest is 23 for pre-algebra. Currently there are 162 eighth graders at the middle school (which projects to 147 for next year) also broken up into two teams. There are five staff members for those teams covering math, science, social studies, language arts and either world language or literacy. Actual class size for Team 3 is 19 students and for Team 4 the actual class size is 19.1 students. The lowest class size is 14 students for language arts while the largest is 26 for Spanish. "Current class sizes include nine classes with less than 15 students with four classes over 25," according a handout provided by Richard. "Of the 80 core academic classes in seventh and eighth grades, the median class size is 18 with an average class size of 18.15." Richard offered a potential three-team configuration for 289 students. There would be three teams with 97 students on each. There would be five staff members per team. According to Richard, if the students are evenly distributed into five classes (one block/day) it would equal a class size of 19.4 students. When there are four blocks a day and only four classes, the class size would balloon to 24.25 students. Last December, Richard pointed out that of the 13 schools within an hour of Kennett Middle School, his cost-per-pupil was the fifth lowest. Kennett, according to Richard's data, was $13,959. Gorham was lowest at $11,989 followed by Kennett High, $12,107; Laconia (pre-construction), $12,566; Berlin, $13,314; Lin-Wood, $13,903; Kennett Middle School, $13,959; Gilford, $14,903; Kingswood Regional Middle School, $14,216; Conway Elementary Schools, $14,704; Interlakes, $14,774; Josiah Bartlett Elementary School, $15,142; Littleton, $15,583; Madison Elementary, $16,036; Jackson Grammar, $16,369; Profile, $16,735; Moultonborough, $17,111; K.A. Brett School in Tamworth, $18,755; and Freedom Elementary, $18,889. Former school board member Mark Hounsell spoke during comments on the item. "A number of questions still stands out to me," he said. "I would like to know more about how the team would configured. If you have three teams and we already have four science labs, are you going to mothball one of them? I don't think the public has had enough time or notice to weigh in on this. Give them a chance to respond, put it on the warrant." The committee did exactly that. It will go to a vote next April.

Hobson at the time was being held pre-trial at the county jail on burglary charges. Authorities believe Hobson wished to harm his exgirlfriend and her current boyfriend. Hobson was the first to escape from the county jail facility since it was built in 2003. On Wednesday morning, Carroll County Department of Corrections superintendent Jason Johnson spoke to county commissioners about the jail break. Johnson said Hobson escaped from a recreation yard, which is uncovered contrary to the advice of several jail experts. Before the jail was built, a study committee recommended enclosing the recreation yard. The study committee

said the fencing should be designed to prevent outsiders from throwing contraband into the yards. Architects designed an enclosed exercise yard but the
design was changed to save money. Studies of the facility also recommend the jail be staffed with 36 corrections officers but the county currently only
has 29. "I come to you today as an extremely frustrated department head," said Johnson. "As you are see CAUGHT page 10

CAUGHT from page 9
Assistant County Attorney Stephen Murray talks with reporters in the courtroom before the proceedings for escaped prisoner David Hobson. (JAMIE GEMMITI PHOTO)
well aware, Carroll County Department of Corrections had an escape last Thursday. When will this county realize that failing to address the security needs of the facility amounts to nothing less than gross negligence?" In Carroll County government, a group of 14 lawmakers called the delegation makes county budgets, which county commissioners manage with help from department heads. County commission chair David Sorensen told Johnson to seek a request for proposal for enclosing the exercise yards. The delegation is scheduled to meet again on Dec. 12. The 2012 county budget is being developed. In 2010, a separate study done by the National Institute of Corrections also noted that the recreation yards should be covered, the perimeter better secured, and that the staffing levels were questionable, said Johnson summarizing the NIC report.

"As of now we have had contraband introduced to the facility via recreation yards and a successful escape," said Johnson. Failure to follow established correctional standards will lead to lawsuits which will cost the county money, stressed Johnson. Corrections staff, who were chasing Hobson initially, couldn't communicate with the local law enforcement because they only had cell phones and not radios. Dialing a cell phone while chasing an escaped prisoner is unrealistic, said Johnson who added that the facility does hold dangerous criminals before they go to prison. Johnson thanked the officers who helped search for Hobson. He also thanked McDonald's and Ossipee House of Pizza for providing food to the responding officers. Johnson left the county commission meeting in Ossipee without taking questions because he needed to get to a morning press conference at the Maine State Police barracks in Alfred. On Wednesday afternoon, Hobson appeared in Third Circuit Court in Ossipee for an arraignment on the felony escape charge. Judge Robert C. Varney imposed $500,000 cash or corporate surety bail on Hobson. His conditions for release include electronic monitoring, no possession of dangerous weapons and no excessive use of alcohol. A probable cause hearing was set for Dec. 19. U.S. Marshals and police took Hobson by surprise near the Market Basket near Route 125, which is about two miles from the Maine border. "He arrived there via his grandmother's vehicle," said Maine District U.S. Marshal Noel March. "His grandmother is out of state." During the arrest, Hobson was surrounded by about 14 federal and local law enforcement officers. He didn't put up a struggle. He was found with $3,000 cash and pills in his possession. Someone drove Hobson to the Market Basket where he was going to meet another individual. "He was looking to continue to evade capture," said March at Wednesday's press conference at the Maine State Police Barracks in Alfred, Maine. "He chose the Market Basket as his rendezvous point." On Friday night, Maine State Police arrested Hobson's father, Glenn Hobson, 55, of Alfred, Maine, and charged him with hindering apprehension for allegedly leaving out supplies for his son. Police also charged Glenn Hobson with refusing to submit to arrest. Troopers allegedly found medical supplies, food, water, clothing and blankets that had been left outside for David Hobson. Besides Hobson and his father, one elese has been arrested but the investigation is ongoing, said March. More charges could also be filed against Hobson including possession of a narcotic drug and auto theft. Authorities said evidence shows Hobson was in the Sanford and Alfred area until about Monday. Police found a receipt that shows Hobson went to Walmart in Scarborough, Maine on Friday night. Security footage shows that he was in the store and was driving a Toyota Highlander that was allegedly stolen in Wakefield. The SUV was recovered over the weekend. Police said Hobson made several purchases at the Walmart including clothing, first-aid supplies, screw drivers and snacks. In court, Hobson had a bandage on his left arm. Police said Hobson was communicating with people via a cell phone, which police were able to track. A $1,000 reward offered by the U.S. Marshal's Service hasn't been given out yet. However, law enforcement did credit one particular tip for leading to Hobson's arrest. The barracks received over 100 tips since the reward money was offered. Hobson hasn't said much about his escape since being captured, authorities said. Two indictments against Hobson are for alleged burglaries in Sandwich and the other indictments are for alleged burglaries in Wakefield and Effingham.

Relentlessly pursuing both cases, Bosch makes two chilling discoveries: a killer operating unknown in the city for as many as three decades, and a political conspiracy that goes back into the dark history of the police department.

Hearing scheduled on Sun's Right-to-Know request on complaints against Davison BY TOM EASTMAN THE CONWAY DAILY SUN
CONWAY — The Conway Daily Sun filed paperwork this week asking a judge to compel the Conway School District to release information about school board member Randy Davison. Five former school board colleagues acknowledged last month the school district has received numerous complaints about Davison’s behavior since he was elected to the board. The complaints pertained to Davison’s behavior at school sporting events. The complaints were never publicly addressed, according to former board members, because Davison agreed to stop acting up. This fall, however, Davison was involved in a verbal altercation at a soccer game in Berlin that got him banned from the Berlin campus for a year. Davison maintains the altercation wasn’t his fault. The Sun learned of the Berlin incident and the past complaints, so the paper requested copies of the materials under the state's Right To Know law. The Right To Know law requires
public access to meetings and records of government bodies to ensure transparency. School administration officials, however, refused to release the documents. An attorney for the school said the materials requested by the paper would constitution an invasion into Davison’s private life. He was not acting in his capacity as a school board member, the attorney argued. Several of Davison’s former colleagues, however, believe the documents should be made public. Public officials have to adhere to a higher standard of behavior, they say. The school board itself has not weighed in on the issue. Several board members said they didn’t learn about the Sun’s request until several days after administration officials had decided to deny it. Davison has hired his own attorney, James Cowles of Walker and Varney in Wolfeboro, to represent his privacy interests. The case will be heard in Carroll County Superior Court. The first hearing for the case is scheduled for Dec. 13.

Local UPS store owner is recognized by Breathe NH MANCHESTER – Tom Davidson, owner of the UPS Store in North Conway, was recognized by Breathe New Hampshire for his support of the organization’s Fun Pass program at its annual meeting and volunteer celebration held Nov. 3 at the Bedford Village Inn in Bedford. The Fun Pass is a coupon booklet offering discounts to many New England family attractions, including Story Land, and is one of Breathe NH’s most successful fundraisers. Last summer, Davidson was approached by an out-of-town Fun Pass purchaser who inquired about having her booklet shipped to his store from Breathe NH’s Manchester office. Davidson agreed and has since extended his generosity to other purchasers by offering a convenient summer destination for Fun Pass delivery. see BREATHE page 18

Sports Nutrition: Performance and Recovery Can you relate to this? You are finishing a really hard workout and the primary thought in your mind as the workout winds down is “now I’m going to relax.” So once the workout is completed, that is exactly what you do. Once you’ve finished training, you are still not finished with training! How well you recover today will be a huge factor in how well you perform tomorrow. You must consider the recovery process as part of your training process. If you give equal emphasis to the recovery part of your training as you do the actual training, you will enhance your performance tremendously and keep yourself as healthy as possible. We’ve all heard about the “window of opportunity” that’s present immediately after a workout. Optimally, an athlete needs to take advantage of helping the body “refill the tank.” Your body will adapt to the training you’re putting it through by storing more glycogen, its primary fuel source. This adaptation process allows you to put your system through another strenuous training session, and be more prepared by having a reservoir of available fuel. Replenish essential nutrients shortly after a workout, when the body’s supplies have been depleted or exhausted. This information can create some recovery guidelines of what to use, when to use it, and how much to use. Intense exercise can make you feel totally exhausted. If you don’t recover properly, you will not be ready to perform well during your next training period. Failure to recover adequately can eventually lead to overtraining. Optimally, you want to rid your muscles of lactic acid and other waste products. Proper recovery will allow you to restore nutrients, get rid of lactic acid, and refuel energy storage. Intense physical activity is likely to lead to a severe depletion of carbohydrate stores (glycogen) and dehydration. It is important to start replenishing carbohydrates soon after exercise. Glycogen synthase (the enzyme that controls glycogen storage) is highly active immediately after exercise when muscle glycogen stores are low. The amount and type of carbohydrate will depend on vari-
ous circumstances, but there are advantages to liquid forms. First, it is more convenient. Recovery drinks can satisfy thirst, require minimal preparation, and are extremely portable. Sports drinks formulated specifically for recovery are less likely to contain large amounts of protein and high amounts of fat or fiber. These can slow gastric emptying, and impede the recovery process. Fluid replenishment is a vital component of post-exercise recovery. Water and electrolytes are lost through sweat, therefore glycogen and protein must be replaced as quickly as possible to ensure that you’re ready for the next workout. You can jump-start the muscle recovery window by consuming a drink containing electrolytes, carbohydrates, and protein. The nutrient content of the drink will help diminish nutritional deficits after the workout. For the most part, sports drinks have been formulated to contain carbohydrates and electrolytes. However, some sports drinks now contain protein and antioxidants as well. Sports drinks that offer approximately 14 grams of carbohydrates per 8 ounces are excellent. This carbohydrate level delivers the optimal amount of both energy and fluid to aid in the recovery process. Drinks that contain mostly fructose can slow down absorption and cause stomach cramps. Look for drinks with a higher percentage of fast-absorbing carbohydrates such as glucose, sucrose, and maltodextrins with approximately 100 milligrams of sodium. A carbohydrate solution, (6 percent to 8 percent) rather than plain water, will maintain a sufficient concentration of blood glucose and help sustain a high rate of recovery. Carbohydrates, vitamins, and minerals all play important roles in recovery. Many foods that contain carbohydrates, protein, and a small amount of fat are excellent for helping with recovery. By consuming ample amounts of carbohydrates immediately after training and again within the next three hours, you efficiently refuel your muscles after a workout. Carbohydrates — essential in rebuilding muscle cells —boost the production and release insulin from the pancreas. see next page

PCOS: What 5 million women may not know According to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, “Between 1 in 10 and 1 in 20 women of childbearing age has PCOS. As many as 5 million women in the United States may be affected. It can occur in girls as young as 11 years old.” You’d think that, with so many women affected, we’d all know what these statistics are describing, but sadly most of us don’t. It’s not a condition that gets headlines, but it’s time to bring this mystery condition to the forefront. It’s called Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) and 50 percent of women with PCOS don’t know they have it. So what is PCOS? In order to understand PCOS we need to have a rudimentary understanding of ovulation. Womenshealth.gov gives us the basics: “The ovaries, where a woman’s eggs are produced, have tiny fluid-filled sacs called follicles or cysts. As the egg grows, the follicle builds up fluid. When the egg matures, the follicle breaks open, the egg is released, and the egg travels through the fallopian tube to the uterus (womb) for fertilization. This is called ovulation.” With that information in hand, we can now understand what happens when PCOS is present. Once again, womenshealth.gov puts it simply; “In women with PCOS, the ovary doesn’t make all of the hormones it needs for an egg to fully mature ... ovulation does not occur and the hormone progesterone is not made. Without progesterone, a woman’s menstrual cycle is irregular or absent. Plus, the ovaries make male hormones, which also prevent ovulation.” So, now that we know what PCOS does, let’s look at the symptoms. You might think, by the sounds of the problem, a woman would know something was wrong, but PCOS symptoms are sneaky. Often they look like symptoms of other diseases and are sometimes written off as being “part of being a woman”: • Irregular menstrual cycles, irregular periods. • Difficulty losing or gaining weight. • Excess hair on face and body, thinning hair. • Darkened skin patches and/or skin tags. • Infertility. • Insulin resistance, Type 2 diabetes. • High cholesterol, high triglycerides, high blood pressure. •Multiple cysts on the ovaries, pelvic pain. • Depression, anxieity, decrease sex from preceding page
Insulin is an anabolic hormone that has a positive impact on protein synthesis in muscles, and tends to suppress protein breakdown. The combination of proteins and carbohydrates to amplify the recovery process involves increasing insulin secretion. Muscle cells are highly receptive to insulin, the hormone responsible for transporting glucose and amino acids through the blood

drive, increased stress levels and sleep apnea. Reading that list of symptoms, it’s easy to understand why PCOS goes undiagnosed and untreated so often. It’s easy to miss. As a matter of fact, there is no single test to diagnose PCOS. Although pelvic exams, medical histories and vaginal ultrasounds are certainly key, it’s the communication between health care provider and patient that provides the key diagnosis. Women have to keep track of symptoms and discuss them with their providers. Jean Potter Murphy, founder of the PCOS Fund at White Mountain Community Health Center says, “Sometimes it takes more than one member of that team to connect the dots that add up to PCOS. Communication is essential. Suffering in silence is never the answer.” Treatment options for PCOS usually involve treating symptoms since there is no single cure. Weight management is critical since obesity plays a substantial role in many of the symptoms exhibited with PCOS. Of primary concern is lowering the risk of the development of diabetes and heart disease. For a woman trying to get pregnant, treatment options will also vary. PCOS has emotional as well as physical effects. The depression and anxiety that are symptoms of the syndrome effect work, home and overall health. Many women with PCOS are self conscious about symptoms such as excess facial hair and body hair and changes to skin. Struggling with weight creates self esteem issues and can affect all aspects of the psyche. Brushing PCOS symptoms under the rug or believing the old myth that it’s all “just part of being a woman” is not only an archaic attitude; it could prove to be a lethal one as well. Many studies have shown distinct links between PCOS and diabetes. A mother with PCOS has a 50 percent chance of having a daughter with PCOS. PCOS creates a higher risk of endometrial cancer, gestational diabetes, miscarriage and liver disease. The risk of heart attack is four to seven times higher in woman with PCOS. Don’t let silence kill you or someone you love. Speak up and help the women in your life speak up about PCOS as well. Suze Hargraves is a staff member of White Mountain Community Health Center.

Consuming carbohydrates within 30 minutes of completing an intense workout, will synthesize twice as much muscle glycogen as someone who waits for several hours. Essentially, the two most important components of recovery are replenishing the glycogen fuel burned during the workout, and rebuilding the destroyed muscle proteins. see NEWTRITION page 18

NEWTRITION from page 14
An average person can ingest carbohydrates at a rate of approximately 1 gram per minute without suffering gastrointestinal distress. The situation with protein recovery is very similar. During intense workouts, muscle protein is damaged, which leaves you with a net loss of muscle protein. Glycogen synthesis and protein rebuilding proceed much faster in the first 2 hours following intense exercise. The optimal formula for post-exercise recovery is 3 grams of carbohydrates for every 1 gram of protein. The 3:1 ratio of carbohydrates to protein maximizes insulin release, and maximizes the rate of glycogen/protein synthesis. A person can consume approximately 1 gram of protein per every 10 pounds of body weight, within an hour or so of completing an intense workout, and approximately 4 times that amount of carbohydrates. Remember, it’s extremely easy to consume way too much protein and not enough carbohydrates after training sessions. Consuming large amounts of protein will slow down gastric emptying and severely alter the muscle recovery window. Carbohydrates and proteins may result in a greater stimulus for muscle glycogen storage. Optimizing your muscle glycogen storage has important implications post-exercise to replace muscle glycogen and protect lean body mass. The amount needed depends on the individual’s size, the degree of carbohydrate depletion, and the severity of fluid loss. Overall, carbohydrates eaten immediately post-exercise are rapidly stored in the muscles as glycogen. Electrolyte replacement is also crucial, and can easily be replaced by consuming fruits, vegetables, a sports drink, and other beverages. Electrolytes help control the energy used for normal bodily function including muscle contractions. Replacing electrolytes — an important part of nutrition recovery — can alter performance if adequate levels of electrolytes are not present. Avoid replacing all the fluids at one time, as this can lead to hyponatremia (over-diluted blood sodium levels) or too little salt. Electrolytes are beneficial by maintaining a proper balance of sodium, potassium, and magnesium that help prevent muscle cramps during and after exercise. Protein is the whey! Whey protein is considered a premium protein, and can be used after intense workouts to enhance the recovery process. Whey also contains a high percentage of essential amino acids. Your body does not produce these protein building blocks, so they need to be obtained through food. Whey protein contains high levels of branched-chain amino acids to help boost the BREATHE from page 14

immune system and increase the production of glutathione, a natural antioxidant. Additionally, whey protein exits the stomach faster than other proteins, and is absorbed rapidly in the intestines. This results in a nice rise of amino acids and helps recovery. Dietary glutamine plays a key role by helping to maintain muscle mass, enhance glycogen, promote healing, increase growth hormone levels, and help prevent muscle catabolism. Whey protein comes from cow’s milk and contains tiny amounts of fat and cholesterol. It has low levels of lactose, and can be an acceptable part of a vegetarian diet that allows dairy products. Leucine, isoleucine, and valine are essential amino acids that play important roles in muscle tissue repair. Proteins containing all the essential amino acids are complete (high-quality) proteins. These can easily be obtained in eggs, milk, meat, fish, cheese, and poultry. Many athletes consume excess quantities of proteins or amino acids. Using more than 1.5 grams of protein per kilogram of body weight can be attributed to helping meet caloric needs rather than protein requirements. Enhancing Recovery and Performance • Replace lost fluids and electrolytes quickly. • Use sports drinks at a 6-8 percent carbohydrate solution recommended for exercise over one hour to prevent cramps with high sweat rates. • Consume easily digestible dextrose drinks low in fiber with small amounts of whey protein to supply glucose and spare glycogen for later use. • Remember that electrolytes help the body hold fluid and replace depleted glycogen stores for rehydration and adequate fuel supply. • Restock your carbohydrate/protein fuel at a 3:1 ratio. • Utilize complete proteins, and take advantage of glutamine. • In general, carbohydrates fuel at 6-12 grams per kg of bodyweight, protein for recovery and building at 1.21.7 grams per kg of bodyweight. Strength and endurance athletes need slightly more, and fat will supply the remaining calories at approximately 1 gram per kg of bodyweight. • Limit nutrient empty calories, fats, and sugars to less than 25 percent total intake.

Dr. Brian Irwin
The Flu Vaccine We are approaching flu season and one of the most common services provided in a PCPs office this time of year is the administration of the flu vaccine. This frequently utilized measure is often misunderstood. For example, I often hear that patients firmly believe they can catch “the flu” from the vaccine itself. This is one misconception, among many, so a list of key facts about the flu vaccine may help dispel myths. 1. The flu vaccine administers a killed virus that is incapable of transmitting the flu. Although, it’s common for patients to experience soreness at the injection site and even a low grade fever after the flu shot, it cannot give you influenza. 2. The flu vaccine will not keep you from getting sick. It is only effective at preventing influenza; there are plenty of other viruses that can cause a flu-like syndrome. There is no vaccine for these more common viruses that are responsible for most winter illnesses. 3. The flu vaccine takes about two weeks to “kick in.” The body needs that time to generate adequate amounts of antibodies, which are protective proteins, that can fight off the flu. 4. This flu vaccine provides immunity against three strains of flu, including H1N1 and H3N2. 5. There are three types of flu vaccine shots, including a high-dose version of the vaccine for patients over the age of 65. There are no specific recommendations that mandate who should receive

this high-dose vaccine, although some medical evidence suggests that it may provide enhanced immunity for older patients when compared to the conventional flu vaccine. 6. There is a nasal spray version of the flu vaccine which is similar in efficacy to the shots. This vaccine is an option for non-pregnant patients between the ages of 2 and 49. This vaccine, unlike the flu shots, is a live, weakened form of influenza and although rare, it can cause a mild form of the flu in select patients. 7. Flu season lasts until April, so it is not too late to get a flu vaccine, even into the spring, should you not have gotten a shot by that point. 8. There is a rare chance that, even though a patient has been vaccinated, they can still catch the flu. The vaccine is not a 100 percent “match” for the strains of flu circulating in the community. Likewise, not all patients generate an adequate immune response to the vaccine. Regardless, the great majority of vaccine recipients are protected with the vaccine. Seasonal influenza is a hard-hitting illness, and if you’ve ever had it you can attest to its severity. If you’ve not yet been vaccinated against the flu, discuss it with your PCP. It might save you two weeks of work … or your life. Dr. Brian Irwin is a family physician at Tamworth Family Medicine, a division of Huggins Hospital.

Flapjack breakfast to benefit Mount Washington Valley Skating Club Dec. 10
A Christmas miracle has already happened this year. We got the Christmas tree decorated without any bloodshed, swearing or arguments. This year we decided to put on only lights, garland and some ornaments that we bought last year really inexpensively right after Christmas. We had a lot of fun, especially after I pulled out the Charlie Pride, Dolly Parton and Kenny Rogers Christmas albums. What a wonderful feeling, truly a time when I wish my parents were around to enjoy the festivities. Dad would be untangling the lights and Mom would be pulling out every ornament that us kids ever made. I hope everyone has a great week. The food pantry at the Glen Church will be closed this Saturday, Dec. 9. The Bartlett Recreation Department will be hosting a Kids Shopping Day on Thursday, Dec. 15, immediately following the school concert from 3 until 4:15 p.m. in the school cafeteria. All gifts only $1.50 with free gift wrapping. This is a great chance for kids to feel good by buying gifts for their loved ones. We hope to see you there. If you have any questions call Bartlett Recreation at 374-1952. On Saturday, Dec. 10, Applebee's restaurant in North Conway will be hosting a flapjack breakfast from 8 to 10 a.m. The breakfast will consist of pancakes, coffee, tea, milk and juice. Cost of the breakfast is $5 per person and all proceeds benefit the Mount Washington Valley Skating Club. Though a limited number of tickets may be available at the door, Applebee’s has requested advance purchase of tickets. Why not start a busy day of Christmas shopping with a good breakfast at Applebee’s. For more information call Karen Weigold at 383-9610 or Madeleine Ryan at 986-1650. Come out and support the Bartlett/Jackson food pantry and eat delicious food at Joseph's Spaghetti Shed on Monday, Dec. 12. Joseph's will donate 20 percent of the proceeds from all dinners eaten in or taken out to the food pantry. There will also be a collection box for non-perishable, non-expired food at Joseph's. Come out and support a local business and an important non-profit in your community. If you have a child that will turn 5 before Sept. 30, 2012 and you live in the Bartlett School District call to register your child for kindergarten next year. The phone number is 374-2331.
ADVANCE from page 15
The directives provide a way for you to communicate your wishes to family, friends and health care professionals, before you face serious illness or injury (if you are in a coma, for instance). The document contains two separate directives, a Living Will, and a Durable Power of Attorney for Health Care. The Durable Power of Attorney for Health Care allows you to name someone to serve as your agent and who is also empowered to speak on your behalf if you are unable to so do. A Living Will is a legal document that instructs your health care provider to give no life-sustaining treatment in the event you are near death, permanently unconscious, or without hope of recovery. If you do not want medically-administered feeding or hydration, New Hampshire law requires that you say so in your advance directive (source: New Hampshire Advance Directives: Foundation for Healthy Communities). For more information and assistance with completing an advance directive call Memorial Hospital at 356-5461, ext. 2291. There is no charge for the service. A complete "Guide to Advance Care Planning" is available on line by going to www.memorialhospitalnh.org or www.healthynh.com.

Jackson Women’s Sewing Club to hold annual Tea for Tuition On Saturday, Dec. 10, from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m., the Jackson Women’s Sewing Club will hold the annual silver tea and boutique at the Whitney Community Center in Jackson. The club has been in existence for 94 years, and this is the major fundraiser for the year. All proceeds go towards a tuition award for a Jackson area high school senior. Last year’s winner of The Lewis and Priscilla Bissell College Scholarship was Tayla James. Past recipients include Doug Fichera, Adam Crowther, Melinda Edgerly, Sasha Pietkiewicz, Jonathon Harmon, Ian Hayes and Matthew Fichera. The traditional event provides a relaxing break during this busy season. Visit with friends, enjoy a cup of tea, sample homemade treats and shop for unique Christmas presents. An extensive selection of stitchery items, jewelry, baked goods and gourmet treats provide creative holiday solutions. The ever popular “white elephant” table offers gift choices suitably priced for your child’s holiday shopping list. Our valley community strongly supports the club’s efforts to raise scholarship money. Popular local crafters including R&R Woodworkers, Fields of Ambrosia, Cat Jewelry and others will participate in the Tea for Tuition afternoon event. Woodworking demonstrations by Ed Good and arrangements by Blumen Winkel florist will add to the festivities. The Friends of the Jackson Library will also be represented. And generous support comes from Handcrafters Barn in North Conway which displays items from the Sewing Club throughout the year and generously donates all the proceeds from the Jackson Women’s Sewing Club booth to the scholarship fund.

Library Connection
Cartoonist Larry Markey is December artist of month This month, the Conway Public Library’s artist of the month is cartoonist Larry Markey. The cartoons on exhibit feature an alternate reality of sorts. When describing his artwork, Markey notes that he wants the viewer to “enjoy the phantasy of going to another world, similar to our own, yet very much different in all respects.” In fact, Larry has written and drawn the characters in the cartoons so that “their present is a compilation of our entire history. They are the bare bodniks, similar but different.” Also featured in the exhibit are Markey’s cartoons of Letty Lyle and her family as well as cartoons featuring local skiers Christie and Anna. Don’t miss these artistic and humorous cartoons which are on display until the end of the month. In the words of the artist, ‘this is a show that is meant to be enjoyed and not necessarily taken too serious.” Antique instruments featured at open mic The Conway Public Library’s monthly open mic night is coming up on Monday, Dec. 12. The fun begins at 6:30 p.m. with an open floor for poets, writers, acoustic musicians and storytellers of all ages. Then, after a break for refreshments, the featured performer of the month takes the floor. This month it’s Maine folk musician Katherine Rhoda. Although she spends a good deal of the year on an island off the Maine Coast, Rhoda is no stranger to the Conway Public Library’s open mic. It is always a surprise to see what instrument she will bring along. This unique performer sings in a sensitive and rousing voice. She is a virtuoso on the marxophone, violin-guitar, Lithuanian kankl s, guitar, and more. Sharing original and traditional music as well as delightfully obscure covers with joy and spirit, her goals are Big Fun and authentic human connection through music. See and hear her at www.youtube.

Vonn gets historic win; Smith is 11th
BEAVER CREEK, Colo. — Calling it the most memorable of her 46 career Audi FIS Alpine World Cup wins, Lindsey Vonn (Vail) fulfilled the dream she had a child and won at home in the inaugural women’s race on Beaver Creek’s Birds of Prey yesterday. Despite a less than perfect run, Vonn took a .37 victory (1:10.68) over Swiss Fabienne Suter to the roar of packed finish stadium. She became the first American to win four World Cup races in a row and tied German superstar Katja Seizinger for the most career World Cup super G wins with 16. Vonn has now won 14 of the last 19 super G’s, never finishing lower than third. While Vonn’s 46th World Cup win moved her into a tie with Austria’s Renate Goetschl for third on the career list, she will remember this victory more for finally breaking through in Colorado. Julia Mancuso of the U.S. finished eighth (1:12.16), 1.48 seconds behind Vonn, while Leanne Smith wound up 11th, (1:12.36). Smith, the daughter of Paula and Joe Smith, of Conway, was pleased with the result. She was 11th in a downhill at Lake Louise on Saturday. “I know that my abilities right now are higher than they’ve ever been,” she said. “Last weekend I was really disappointed because I didn’t go after it enough, so this is definitely a step in the right direction.” Smith said both the men’s and women’s alpine teams are in top form to open the season. “Our entire team is skiing at such a high level right now and that’s inspiring for all of us,” she said.

DAILY CROSSWORD TRIBUNE MEDIA SERVICES
by Lynn Johnston by Scott Adams
DILBERT
By Holiday Mathis are things you’ve always wanted to do but never acted on. There will be a perfect moment to make your move. It’s yours for the seizing, but don’t hesitate, or you’ll miss it. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Taking things too seriously is dangerous and not advised. With a great deal of levity, you just may float above this whole strange situation and escape to a bright new scene. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You regularly take reasonable, responsible risks. Once in a while, you’re tempted to take an unreasonable risk just because something in your gut says it will work. You’ll get that feeling again today. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You don’t like anyone telling you what to do, especially yourself. That’s why you sometimes make a schedule and do whatever you feel like doing instead. Let yourself have the freedom, no guilt necessary. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You’re feeling mighty independent, and you won’t measure your self-worth against how much another person demonstrates their love for you. You might even find someone’s attention annoying or distracting. TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Dec. 8). It will be a year of renovation and revitalization. Progress in areas of education, communication, writing, computers, travel and sales will thrill you. The next six weeks are for making connections. You’ll be praised for your integrity in the spring. Loved ones trust you and make you a bigger part of their world. Capricorn and Aquarius people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 2, 15, 49, 50 and 11.
Get Fuzzy
ARIES (March 21-April 19). A surge of emotional energy may incite you to demonstrate your love or other strong feelings. You’ll communicate clearly, and it will be nice to finally be heard and understood. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). The only reality is the one you perceive. You’ll tune your perception to a world that supports your wishes and gives you happy surprises. You’ll see the many ways that people will help you. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Your mood upon waking might not be ideal. You can turn it around by working from the outside in. “Sometimes your joy is the source of your smile, but sometimes your smile can be the source of your joy.” -- Thich Nhat Hanh CANCER (June 22-July 22). When you begin choosing in favor of what would really make you happy, instead of doing the automatic role that someone has cast you in, your life will transform in unpredictable ways. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You won’t take your relationships for granted. There are still many new things to learn about a person you’ve known a long time. Today’s insight will be a kind of revelation. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Social happenings are more interesting than usual. You’ll enjoy a certain person’s company in particular, and that person will be sure to invite you to other events in the near future. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). When you argue with the way things are, you lose. Knowing this, you’ll assess a less than optimum situation and will try to see the opportunities for good that exist in it. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21).

Yesterday’s Answer
THE CONWAY DAILY SUN, Thursday, December 8, 2011— Page 27
Today is Thursday, Dec. 8, the 342nd day of 2011. There are 23 days left in the year. Today’s Highlight in History: On Dec. 8, 1941, the United States entered World War II as Congress declared war against Japan, a day after the attack on Pearl Harbor. On this date: In 1776, during the Revolutionary War, Gen. George Washington’s retreating army crossed the Delaware River from New Jersey into Pennsylvania. In 1854, Pope Pius IX proclaimed the Catholic dogma of the Immaculate Conception, which holds that Mary, the mother of Jesus, was free of original sin from the moment of her own conception. In 1863, President Abraham Lincoln announced his plan for the Reconstruction of the South. In 1886, the American Federation of Labor was founded in Columbus, Ohio. In 1911, actor Lee J. Cobb was born in New York City. In 1949, the Chinese Nationalist government moved from the Chinese mainland to Formosa as the Communists pressed their attacks. In 1961, a fire at Hartford Hospital in Connecticut resulted in 16 deaths. The Beach Boys’ first single, “Surfin’,” was released. In 1980, rock star John Lennon was shot to death outside his New York City apartment building by an apparently deranged fan. In 1987, President Ronald Reagan and Soviet leader Mikhail S. Gorbachev signed a treaty at the White House calling for destruction of intermediate-range nuclear missiles. In 1991, AIDS patient Kimberly Bergalis, who had contracted the disease from her dentist, died in Fort Pierce, Fla., at age 23. One year ago: President Barack Obama rejected claims that he had betrayed Democrats by cutting a deal with Republicans on Bush-era tax cuts and implored his party to back the compromise, arguing it could jumpstart the economy. Today’s Birthdays: Actor-director Maximilian Schell is 81. Singer Jerry Butler is 72. Pop musician Bobby Elliott is 70. Actress Mary Woronov is 68. Actor John Rubinstein is 65. Rock singer-musician Gregg Allman is 64. Reggae singer Toots Hibbert is 63. Actress Kim Basinger is 58. Rock musician Warren Cuccurullo is 55. Rock musician Phil Collen is 54. Country singer Marty Raybon is 52. Political commentator Ann Coulter is 50. Rock musician Marty Friedman is 49. Actor Wendell Pierce is 48. Actress Teri Hatcher is 47. Singer Sinead O’Connor is 45. Actor Matthew Laborteaux is 45. Rock musician Ryan Newell is 39. Actor Dominic Monaghan is 35. Actor Ian Somerhalder is 33. Rock singer Ingrid Michaelson is 32. R&B singer Chrisette Michele is 29. Rock singer-actress Kate Voegele is 25.

NOT EVEN DEATH CAN HEAL FAMILY’S SEVEN-YEAR FEUD
DEAR ABBY: After a bitter seven-year estrangement from his family, my husband received his grandfather’s eulogy in the mail. His father sent it with a note that read, “Here’s a copy of the eulogy I read at his funeral.” Abby, this was how his family notified him of his grandfather’s death -- two weeks after the fact. We had attempted several reconciliations with no success. A month later, my husband died at the age of 36 -- depressed and suffering from black lung disease. His family blames ME for his depression. Not a single relative of my husband’s attended his memorial service despite being given three weeks’ notice and my having mailed them formal invitations. My husband left a declaration in his will that his family should never know our child, whom they abandoned at 2 months old via a letter to us and my family. I feel I have been choking on their toxic behavior and venom. Do you have any advice as we move forward with our crosses after being abused by these narcissists for more than seven years? -- SAD AND BITTER WIDOW IN TENNESSEE DEAR SAD AND BITTER WIDOW: Yes. Put down those crosses and recognize that the anger and bitterness you feel will only poison yourself and your child. Obey your husband’s wishes and raise your child in a healthy emotional environment -- as far from your husband’s family as possible. Unless you do, the mistreatment to which you have been subjected will affect both your lives and you will waste what could be a happy future.
DEAR ABBY: I know some children who seem to be mature and are able to make logical decisions on a fairly regular basis. Still, making a decision under stress when one has not had a lot of experience can be difficult. Having said that, at what age do you think it is appropriate to leave a child alone at home? Sometimes it’s difficult to arrange for child care when kids are out of school. Do you have any guidelines as to what to look for that can help make this decision? -- BUSY WORKING PARENT IN KANSAS DEAR BUSY WORKING PARENT: I don’t think children should be left alone if there is any other alternative available -- after-school programs, YMCA, activities where they will have adult supervision. Too many things can go wrong, and you would never forgive yourself if one of them happened to your child. DEAR ABBY: How does one respond to a former co-worker/acquaintance who wants you to be a reference at your current workplace? My experience with him was not ideal. He was a good worker, but he became irritable when he was under stress and drowned everyone around him in negative energy. I don’t want to work with this individual again, but I prefer to be nonconfrontational. -- FORMER COLLEAGUE IN SUNNYVALE, CALIF. DEAR FORMER COLLEAGUE: If you are asked again, tell your former co-worker you are not comfortable assuming that responsibility. Don’t be defensive and don’t allow the person to pressure you. And you do not have to explain why you have chosen not to give the reference.
