CONWAY — The fireworks for New Year's Eve are on for North Conway Village after all.
Just as the community came together to make the Conway Village tree lighting a go last Sunday, the same can be said about this year's New Year's Eve fireworks, which had been presented in past years by the North Conway Village Association and
previously the Mount Washington Valley Preservation Association. Changes in North Conway Village Association membership had imperiled this see FIREWORKS page 8
Madison home target of armed robbery No arrests, but police believe ‘numerous’ people were involved in town’s second armed robbery in a month BY DAYMOND STEER THE CONWAY DAILY SUN
MADISON — Police responded to a report of an armed robbery at a home early Thursday morning. The robbery occurred at 1:54 a.m., according to State Police Det. Sgt. Justin
Rowe, who withheld the location of the home out of concern for the safety of the victim. Rowe said "numerous" suspects entered the home to commit the robbery. The suspects fled before police arrived, and there have been no arrests. "This incident seems to be specifically targeted at that private residence only, and
there is no indication that the general public is in any danger at this time," said Rowe. New Hampshire State Police was assisted at the scene by the Madison Police Department and the Carroll County Sheriff’s Office. see ROBBERY page 12
Climbers scrub graffiti from top of Cathedral Ledge BY ERIK EISELE THE CONWAY DAILY SUN
BARTLETT — Lots of times when someone decides to take a can of spray-paint to the side of a building, nobody cares. When someone decided to spray-paint the top of Cathedral Ledge recently, however, it took two days for a handful of rock climbers to jump into action. “It was awesome, I was very surprised,” said Erik Nelson, the park manager who oversees Echo Lake State Park and Cathedral Ledge. “I think it says a lot about the climbing community, taking ownership and taking care of the cliff.” Nelson greeted a team of a dozen mountaineers, rock and ice climbers who met at the Frontside Grind coffee shop on Wednesday. Everyone was bundled in layers of clothes topped by

Cells test strength of gym rules
–––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– DIGEST––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––
(NY Times) — Like movie theaters and libraries, many fitness clubs have insisted for years that their workout areas should be cellphonefree. Their logic is as simple and straightforward as a push-up: they want to prevent people from yakking on their phones and annoying the fitness buffs who want to crank out reps and mileage in relative peace. Safety is another reason, because texting while running on a treadmill can be hazardous to your health. But what makes sense in theory is becoming harder to police in practice. Gym owners say their members are dividing into two camps, those who can’t stand cellphones on the gym floor and those who see their phones as indispensable to their workouts as a bottle of water. The whole issue has grown more complicated as phones themselves have grown more multifunctional. Many phones now double as a music player and have apps like Gym Buddy to track crunches and deadlifts. And iPhones can be docked into some cardiovascular machines made by Technogym and Cybex. Phones can also shoot video as well as take pictures. So while it used to be easy for club managers to tell if a loud talker was flouting the cellphone ban, employees have to keep an eagle eye out for people who might be shooting another member’s jiggling belly fat for a laugh.

WASHINGTON (NY Times) — President Obama, noting that he was the father of two daughters, threw his wholehearted support on Thursday behind a decision by his Health and Human Services secretary, Kathleen Sebelius,
not to allow emergency contraceptives to be sold over the counter to young teenagers. “The reason Kathleen made this decision is that she could not be confident that a 10-year-old or an 11-year-old going to a drug store should be able — alongside
bubble gum or batteries — be able to buy a medication that potentially, if not used properly, could have an adverse effect,” Obama said to reporters at the White House. “And I think most parents would probably feel the same way.”
Grappling with vote protests, Putin seeks to blame Clinton MOSCOW (NY Times) — Prime Minister Vladimir V. Putin accused Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton on Thursday of inciting unrest in Russia, as he grappled with the prospect of large-scale political protest for the first time in his more than decade-long rule. In a rare personal accusation, Putin said Clinton had sent “a signal” to “some actors in our country” after Sunday’s parliamentary elections, which have been condemned as fraudulent by both international and Russian observers. Anger over the elections prompted a demonstration in
which thousands chanted “Putin is a thief” and “Russia without Putin,” a development which has deeply unnerved the Kremlin. Speaking to political allies as he announced the formation of his presidential campaign, Putin said hundreds of millions in “foreign money” was being used to influence Russian politics, and that Ms. Clinton herself had spurred protesters to action. The comments seemed to mark an end to the Obama administration’s sputtering effort to “reset” the relationship between the U.S. and Russia.

Newt Gingrich, ahead in polls
(NY Times) — Even as he widens his lead in the polls, Newt Gingrich spends substantial time on an activity that earlier, as a back-of-the-pack candidate, raised questions about his ultimate motive — selling and signing $25 copies of his books. As his primary foe, Mitt Romney, and the White House intensify their efforts to negatively define Gingrich, his sole public event on Friday is at a book store in Washington. On Saturday he flies to Des Moines for a televised Republican debate but plans to squeeze in an afternoon booksigning. Experienced campaign strategists cannot recall a top-tier contender devoting so much time to pitching products while seeking the White House. Mitt Romney, who also has a book out, has never sold it while stumping, his campaign said. Obama, a best-selling author in 2007 and 2008, did not incorporate sales events into campaign appearances, according to a spokesman for his re-election committee. Gingrich’s devotion to book-selling, Republican strategists said, raises questions about the propriety of a candidate who is generating personal income while seeking the White House, as well as whether he is making the optimum use of limited campaign time.

Senate committee toughens eminent domain rules CONCORD — A New Hampshire Senate committee is recommending a bill to enhance the state’s limits on taking land by eminent domain, but stopped short of language that could have hampered the controversial Northern Pass project. The Senate Judiciary Committee unanimously approved requirements

DIXVILLE NOTCH — Two Colebrook businessmen who purchased The Balsams Grand Resort and Hotel in Dixville Notch for $2.3 million plan to close it for the next year-and-a-half. “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 Jr., who with Daniel Dagesse has formed Balsams View, LLC. The Tillotson Corporation had owned the 7,700-acre property. The deal means an end to Public Service of New Hampshire’s recent offer to buy an undeveloped portion of the Balsams property for its Northern Pass project transmission line. George Bald, the state’s director of resources and economic development, acknowledged Wednesday that the 300 seasonal workers who rely on the hotel and resort for income may be in for a rough time. “It’s tough for people to have to lose their jobs and wait that long,” Bald said. “We’re going to do everything we can to work with the new owners. We’ll work to try to shorten up that time.” Hebert noted the Balsams’ last renovations occurred more than 40 years ago. The resort, which closed for the season in September, is off Route 26 in the northern tip of Coos County. “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,” he said. In a written statement, Tillotson Corp. President Tom Deans said Wednesday the new owners’ goals line up with those of the board. “Our objective has always been to sell the Balsams to a buyer who would preserve the jobs of Balsams’ employees and continue the economic benefits that the hotel provides in the North Country,” Deans said. “We are pleased that ownership of the Balsams will pass to a local group that shares that goal as well.” Both Hebert, a builder, and Dagesse, former owner of several automobile dealerships, were part of a previous group of prospective buyers for the hotel; that deal fell apart earlier this year. At the time, renovation costs were pegged at $12-$20 million. Hebert said the first step is to winterize the hotel and decommission the biomass plant. He said Balsams View is committed to employing North Country contractors and workers. The Society for the Protection of New Hampshire Forests struck an agreement with the Tillotson board to pay $850,000 for conservation restrictions on 6,000 acres — including 30 miles of recreational trails — surrounding the property. Last month, Public Service of New Hampshire had put in a bid for some of the land, part of its search for a less-controversial route to connect to hydroelectric energy from Canada, PSNH and Northern Pass spokesman Martin Murray had said.

Leave New Hampshire marriage law alone To the editor: In response to Bruce Cochrane’s letter of Dec. 2: The same day your diatribe against other people’s personal relationships appeared in this paper was I and my husband’s 22nd wedding anniversary. Never in the last 22 years of marriage has another person’s relationship, orientation or marital status ever affected our relationship. If “gay marriage” is affecting yours I would suggest you look deep within yourselves as to why that is so. Buddhism is an older religion than Christianity and has far more members than Christianity. Just because their religion has more members doesn’t make it more right than another. Just like there are more heterosexuals than homosexuals doesn’t make one orientation more right than the other. To paraphrase the Bible, we are all created in His image. We are all His children and He loves us all. I would suggest that you spend more time on self development and learning Christian kindness than worrying about what others do in their homes, relationships and bedrooms as you
seem to have forgotten the basic tenants of Christianity. Currently your admission through the pearly gates is not assured as its not up to you to judge your neighbor but to love them. Your hate will keep those gates closed to you. As to the rest of your letter I have only three things to say: A) A basic biology class will show what nature really contains and what is “natural” in the wild I would advise your to take one as you clearly lack that knowledge. B) If the ability to have children is the major criteria for a marriage to be valid then it would appear that all those hetero couples that either choose to not have kids or are infertile shouldn’t be considered married either which we both know is wrong. C) If how another couple has relations upsets you, then stop watching. Lastly, Frank McCarthy if you are reading this — Leave the New Hampshire law alone. Don’t you have better things like creating jobs to worry about? Dawn James Conway

A Laser-Like Focus on Social Engineering
New Hampshire state revenues are down by $56.7 million for the month of November, according to a recent story in the Union Leader. Our state is facing a huge budget shortfall next year. We still have problems with both unemployment and underemployment. Both of those things contribute to our state’s budget shortfall. You may remember that during the 2010 campaign season, the folks who now have the majority promised a laser-like focus on job creation. Since their budget went into effect, the state has lost over 2,000 jobs, and the unemployment rate has risen. That laser appears to be defective. Speaker of the N.H. House, Bill O’Brien staked his name (and hopefully his New Hampshire political career) on getting the governor’s veto of a so-called right to work bill overridden. He failed to bully enough legislators, and the veto override failed. When asked to name a single company that refused to move to New Hampshire because there was no right to work bill in place, O’Brien failed again. He was unable to name even one. The so-called “right to work” legislation comes from a well-funded special interest group in Virginia. This is not a New Hampshire initiative. This is our speaker and our state legislators bowing to out-of-state special interest groups. O’Brien is the lackey of special interest groups. After a trip to D.C. to meet with folks like the Heritage Foundation, O’Brien came back and pushed to lower the tobacco tax. (Heritage gets big bucks from Big Tobacco.) That move has cost the state at least $11 million in revenue. This is all deliberate. The Teabaglicans want to have as little money as possible to work with, therefore justifying their ongoing mantra of: “New Hampshire doesn’t have a revenue problem, New Hampshire has a spending problem.” If you don’t have much money coming in, there’s not much money to go out. They desperately want to fulfill that prophecy. In doing so, they’re willing to take our state back two centuries. There’s a reason O’Brien can’t name a single company that won’t move here because of right to work. There isn’t one. There are many reasons that companies won’t move to New Hampshire, and many of them involve our state’s lack of infrastructure. There aren’t sufficient roads and highways for moving merchandise, and there isn’t sufficient telecommunications infrastructure for doing business in the upper half of the state. We also have high energy costs, high property taxes, and we hate education. Companies may also look askance at a state where some of our legislators are comfortable with letting poor people freeze to death. Given that the legislative laser has been on hiatus this session, one might think that they’d sharpen their promised focus on “jobs, jobs, jobs” for next session. One would be wrong. Having ensured that the state coffers are barely full, our legislators are turning to social engineering. When New Hampshire passed a marriage equality law, there was no plague of locusts, no rain of toads from the sky. All that changed is that more people are married, new families
have been created, and New Hampshire businesses have benefitted from providing a variety of services associated with weddings. Local Representative Frank McCarthy is opposed to marriage equality, but wants to hear from his constituents, claiming that they’ll make his decision for him. Does anyone actually believe that? McCarthy marches to the drumbeat of the most loathsome aspects of the far right. His opposition to gay rights is typical of old Republicans. They’re old, rigid in their beliefs, and often very religious. It’s not a winning issue or strategy for the Republicans. Even Maynard Thomson, disgraced former Chairman of the Carroll County GOP, acknowledges that repealing marriage equality isn’t a winner for the Teabaglicans. This same bunch natters on endlessly about freedom, liberty, too many gummint regulations, and “the rights of the individual.” How lofty! How utterly insincere! They throw those fauxbertarian ideals right out the window when it comes to gays and women. Regulatin’ business is bad. Regulatin’ homosexuals and wimmin is essential. I trust I’m not the only one who is looking forward to watching these same paragons of self-professed morality twist themselves into pretzels to justify supporting Newt Gingrich, if he becomes the GOP presidential nominee. Newt Gingrich, whose first wife supported him financially, all the way through his Ph.D. Newt didn’t work. Didn’t take a job as a janitor, the way he wants low income kids to do. He was so grateful to her, that he cheated on her, and divorced her after she was diagnosed with uterine cancer. She had to take him to court to get him to pay alimony and child support. After that divorce, Newt married the woman he’d been having an affair with. The lizard didn’t change his spots. He cheated on Number 2, and eventually began having an affair with a woman who worked for him. A woman younger than his daughters. At the same time this was going on, he was working to impeach President Clinton. He finally ditched Number 2 after she was diagnosed with MS. After that, he married the young woman who worked for him, who is currently Number 3, and presumably the beneficiary of his famed revolving charge account at Tiffany’s. Maybe he just buys engagement rings in bulk, given his belief in the sanctity of marriage. The same people who decry marriage equality will leap right on to the Gingrich bus, without a moment of reflection on their own hypocrisy. In 2009, New Hampshire had an official poverty rate of 7.9 percent. In 2011 that rate has increased to 8.3 percent. That’s a rate higher than the official unemployment number. That tells us that many New Hampshire families are working, and still qualify as poor. People of conscience would have a problem of that. We didn’t elect people with a conscience.

‘Crony capitalism’ destroying public trust of Washington To the editor: Last Sunday I skipped the second half of the Patriots to check out Presidential candidate Jon Huntsman at the American Legion with about 75 other people. He was well prepared and had some excellent ideas on education, healthcare, jobs, and even mentioned limited terms for Congress. I had a question for him about money. I prefaced my question with facts about derivatives, fiat currency, a European bank run, a meaningless Super Committee, and deficit spending. I stated that these abuses of money are nothing more than the theft of our property and earned wealth and that redeemable currency is the final protector of our freedom and property rights from government and politicians. As such my question was: “knowing that Utah became the first state to legalize gold and silver coin as currency would your administration accept some form of a goldbacked currency and if so how would you get this past what I believe is a totally corrupt Federal Reserve? After praising this as a good question and commenting on banks too big to fail, Dodd Frank, and quantitative easing, in typical political fashion never really addressed my question directly. How appropriate that just a couple of days later the European bank run came to a head and every Central Bank in the world unleashed a torrent of free money the to the bankrupt banks of Europe. Seems our “too big to fail banks” have written way too many credit default swaps on European Sovereign debt that they would go down with all of Europe also. Wall Street and the European Bourses love free money and the markets took off for the best month in history. Life is good as long and the can has been kicked far enough down the road. Governor Huntsman also talked about the political corruption in D.C./ Wall Street by referring to the Savings and Loan scandal and how over 1000 people were successfully prosecuted yet virtually no one has even been indicted in the present scandals on Wall St. other than Benie Madoff. Two very important people come to my mind that have remained untouched by the law are former Treasury Secretary Hank Paulson (Goldman Sachs alumnus) and former Senator/Governor of NJ/CEO of Goldman Sachs and MF Global, John Crozine. Secretary Paulson testified under oath before Congress in early July 2008 that Fanny Mae and Freddi Mac were “adequately capitalized and solvent.” Approximately 10 days later at a meeting in Manhattan on July 28 there was a meeting between Paulson and approximately 20 of the largest hedge fund managers in the world who represented hundred of billions of dollars. Mind you this meeting took place while Paulson was still in office as Secretary of the Treasury and he tells these hedge fund managers just the opposite. Paulson tells the “in crowd” that Fannie and Freddie are insolvent and will be put in conservatorship costing the U.S. taxpayer hundreds of billions of dollars and still hemorrhaging as I write. How conve-
nient to know before the bankruptcy so you can short these stocks and make hundreds of millions as they tank from $20 in July to almost zero in less than two months. This represents one of the largest financial problems to hit the U.S. taxpayer. It also represents fraud, corruption, lying to Congress, and abuse of power at the highest levels of government that to this day has not been addressed by the Justice Department. Judging how Attorney General Eric Holder has also lied to Congress when questioned about ATF’s Fast and Furious program I am not surprised at how abuse of power at the highest levels stinks up Washington and Wall Street. The second miscreant I would like to vilify is John Corzine who was just subpoenaed by Congress to explain his involvement in the bankruptcy of MF Global, a major clearinghouse on Wall Street. It seems that there are over a billion dollars of client’s collateral funds that are missing but when you are a former governor/senator/ CEO of Goldman Sachs and a major supporter to the Obama campaign you can disappear to who knows where without fear of the SEC, CFTC or the Justice Department. So Congress issues a subpoena at the last moment and will have a broadcast that allows them to pontificate and accomplish nothing to find clients missing funds. Mr. Corzine, I guarantee, will invoke the fifth and say nothing. His bankrupt business still has frozen and missing funds for months now and the SEC/CFTC are frozen in their investigation. Chief cop at the lead agency CFTC, Gary Gensler has just now after months recused himself. Also a Goldman alumnus and close buddy, I guess he finally figured the heat was too great and it was time to leave. MF Global’s business represents the guts of the markets and clears trades. The system of trading on Wall Street is totally useless unless the clearing mechanisms work. MF is another Lehman but worse and until all customers of MF are made whole the system is broken and cannot be trusted. This “crony capitalism” is destroying the public’s trust of Washington and Wall Street. These people occupying different areas of the country may not be able to articulate what they are angry at but they definitely know something is rotting in DC/ NY and the smell is becoming putrid. Until the leadership of this country is willing to put people in place that will prosecute these obscene instances of fraud, abuses of power and corruption in the highest positions of government and business more and more of the population will end up on the streets and demand justice. Primaries are around the corner and next year represents a very important election. I have only observed one candidate that represents hard money and scares the crap out of Wall Street/ D.C. so much that he is being ignored by the liberal media. Please do your research and check out all your candidates positions carefully. It may be one of the more important decisions you make for a very long time. Peter Hill North Conway

year's event, according to Mount Washington Valley Chamber of Commerce executive director Janice Crawford. Crawford met with Conway selectmen Tuesday and then with North Conway Water Precinct commissioners Wednesday to address this year's New Year's Eve fireworks. She was joined at Wednesday's meeting by chamber events coordinator Mary Seavey, who is a Conway selectman, and by former commissioner Sheila Duane who represented the North Conway Village Association, the latter of which serves as a subsect of the larger Mount Washington Valley Chamber. Both the board of selectmen and North Conway Water Precinct commissioners made concessions to clear the way for the annual fireworks to happen. At their meeting Tuesday, selectmen also agreed that there is a need to form a committee to work with Crawford to better plan, coordinate and fund community events and that they would task a representative of town staff to serve on that committee. Commissioners at Wednesday's meeting also agreed that such a committee would be helpful. Business support cited Crawford told both boards that local businesses have also stepped to the plate to make both the tree lighting in Conway last weekend and the fireworks possible, including The Conway Daily Sun and PainCare, the latter of which has agreed to pay for the entire $7,000 cost of the fireworks. Crawford, Duane and Seavey said the North Conway Village Association has agreed to provide volunteers to help clean up debris in Schouler Park after the fireworks. At both Tuesday and Wednesday's meetings, Crawford said the recent discussion about holiday events and the need for better coordination had brought the community together. “If you have been reading the paper and checking Facebook and wherever else,” Crawford told commissioners, “you have seen a clear indication that the community has a dire need for community celebrations and traditions.” She cited the following examples of those traditions: * The Conway Village tree lighting. * The Christmas parade in Conway (that was canceled this year due to a lack of planning). * New Year's Eve fireworks in North Conway. * Conway Village Christmas wreaths on utility poles. * The placement of American flags in North Conway and Conway Village on utility poles. * The Fourth of July parade in Conway and the festivities with fireworks in North Conway Village.

5-0 to sponsor the fireworks event, thereby allowing the town to waive its $50 special events permit. As a town-sponsored event, town manager Earl Sires said the town will carry the event's liability policy and will also work to get the state fire marshal permit. Sires said he and recreation department director John Eastman have agreed to be at Schouler Park on behalf of the town on New Year's. A private community proposal to explore bringing back the annual “Burning of the Green” to Schouler Park was tabled by selectmen for this year. They cited concerns about unwanted metal debris getting onto the grassy areas of the park, now that the North Conway Skating Club's ice rink has been moved onto the softball diamond where that burning formerly took place. Conway events Approximately 70 people on Dec. 3 attended Conway's tree lighting, which was presented by the Mount Washington Valley Skating Club prior to that group's well-attended “Holiday on Ice Show” at the Ham Ice Arena. In the past, the Conway Village Christmas parade and tree lighting were handled by the Conway Village Area Chamber of Commerce, which disbanded in May. The Mount Washington Valley Chamber now runs the Conway info booth, and paid $750 to treat the blight-damaged conifer used for the tree lighting. Crawford said the Mount Washington Valley Chamber did not agree to take over Conway events when it agreed to manage the information booth there. Recent events have demonstrated a need for the chamber, the town and the business community to work together, she said at both meetings this week. Because the Conway chamber is defunct, selectmen voted 5-0 at Tuesday's selectmen meeting to serve as the entity to now work with Public Service of New Hampshire to enable the Mount Washington Valley Chamber to put up Christmas wreaths on PSNH utility poles. “In the past, we worked with the Conway Village chamber in a similar way, because PSNH only lets municipalities to put wreaths on their poles for liability reasons. So, this is very similar,” said Sires after the meeting. Precinct fee reduced On Wednesday, North Conway Water Precinct commissioners voted 3-0 at their meeting to reduce the precinct's newly implemented special events fee from $1,800 for the fireworks to $100 to cover the cost of performing the fireworks equipment inspection. Special events fees were implemented following public comment Sept. 1. The revenue from the fees goes directly to offset taxes, with fees determined by see next page

PainCare to sponsor fireworks CONWAY — CEO of PainCare, Dr. Michael O’Connell, couldn’t bear to watch the Grinch steal Christmas in Conway this year. After learning that the Conway Christmas treelighting ceremony and the New Year’s fireworks were canceled, he decided to donate the funds necessary to get the events back up and running. One of PainCare’s North Conway providers, Kelly DeFeo, CRNA, delivered some of the newly purchased lights to the Mount Washington Valley Chamber of Commerce so that they could be put up in time for the tree lighting. O’Connell then expressed interest in contributing to the New Year’s Eve fireworks as well, according to Janice Crawford, executive director of the Mount Washington Valley Chamber. PainCare is donating the full $7,000 needed to make the fireworks happen, with help from the North Conway Village Association in organizing the event, according to a press release from PainCare. “The cooperative spirit exhibited by the community — Town of Conway employees and selectmen, North Conway Water Precinct, Conway Village Fire District, The Conway Daily Sun, PainCare, Bea’s Cafe, Saco River Medical Group, Leavitt’s Country Bakery, White Mountain Cupcakery, North Conway Hannaford, Shaw’s Supermarket/Osco, Dunkin Donuts, Walmart North Conway, Kennett Middle School Chorus, Mount Washington Valley Skating Club, 4 Our Kids Recycling, Northway Bank, PSNH, Conway Police Department, Mount Washington Graph-FX and Printing/Frank Hastings, Hussey Family Farm’s Percherons, Ruthie’s Flower Shop, Whitaker's Farm Stand, Fire 21, North Conway Fire Department, Time Warner, Mary Walden, Maureen Seavey, Syndi White and Mount Washington Valley Chamber of Commerce volunteers and Ham Arena — sparks a new enthusiasm for community activities in Conway Village for the future,” said Crawford. PainCare, the leading medical practice in New England dedicated exclusively to treating all types of pain, very recently opened its doors at The Red Barn Center in North Conway. According to the company, “O’Connell is thrilled to be able to offer PainCare’s services to the Mount Washington Valley community, and believes PainCare can improve the quality of life for those in need of pain management. The providers and staff at PainCare understand the effect pain can have on you and your loved ones. Their team of knowledgeable providers create comprehensive treatment plans for their patients which combine state-of-theart technology, interventional procedures and more to help them get their lives back.” The public is invited to PainCare’s ribbon cutting ceremony and open house from 4:30 to 7 p.m. on Monday, Jan. 23 to meet the providers, tour the facility and enjoy refreshments. PainCare is located at 1976 White Mountain Highway in North Conway. Visit PainMD.com to learn more.

the number of fire department hours and equipment required for fireworks. “We were hoping that we might be able to get a distinction between community celebrations, things that are for our taxpayers and residents,” said Crawford. After listening to that reasoning about it being a community event, commissioners originally made a motion to reduce the $1,817 fee to $500 to cover the cost of manpower but not equipment. Fellow commissioner Jim Umberger and chair Bob Porter agreed with commissioner John Santuccio to reduce those fees further, with Santuccio arguing that since the fees are new, the public may not yet be fully aware of them and that the fee could be waived for this year. Fire chief Pat Preece noted that the hearing and public comment period for the fees were posted but agreed that the New Year's Eve fireworks was a community event. Rather than waive them entirely, Preece lobbied that commissioners keep the $100 fireworks equipment inspection fee in place. Ultimately, the board went that way. Commissioners agreed with Preece that the waiver was not meant to be precedent setting. They also voted 3-0 on Umberger's motion that
“We were hoping that we might be able to get a distinction between community celebrations, things that are for our taxpayers and residents.” they needed to revisit the issue by appointing a committee to differentiate between non-profits seeking to put on fireworks versus private groups and individuals. Two fireworks displays for New Year’s Cranmore Mountain Resort is to present fireworks n New Year's at 6:30 p.m., with North Conway's now set for 9:30 p.m. While commissioner Porter questioned whether Cranmore might also seek a waiver, Preece said those fireworks are private, and said they are also Class C fireworks, a lower level than the Class B fireworks anticipated for New Year's in the village at 9:30 p.m. Class C fireworks require an inspection from the fire chief, but do not require fire protection the way Class B fireworks do, Preece said. Additional volunteers for the upcoming New Year's effort may contact the Mount Washington Valley Chamber by calling 356-5701.

raincoats, prepared to go for a graffitierasing expedition. “We spend so much time on Cathedral and Whitehorse Ledge,” said Sarah Garlick, the local climber who spearheaded the effort, “it feels quite personal.” The graffiti was legible but incomprehensible, a series of half-words in black letters tattooed to the top of the cliff. It would have been clearly visible from the fenced in area across the void had the clouds not been so dense to limit visibility to 100 feet on Wednesday. And while no one suspects it was climbers who branded the cliff, it’s unsurprising it was climbers who cleaned it up. “We’re people who care-take the place,” said Rick Wilcox, the owner of International Mountain Equipment and president of Mountain Rescue Service. “It gives us some ownership.” It was a climber who first discovered the graffiti. At this time of year the gate at the base of the road to the top of the cliff is locked, but a local guide took clients up the face last week and discovered it. The guide sent a photo of the graffiti to Garlick, who decided then and there to do something about it. “I had already been thinking climbers can just clean it up,” she said, “but I wanted to go through the state park first.” Nelson, who had seen this sort of thing before, was appreciative but didn’t expect a huge turnout. He’s tried to rally climbers on short notice in the past, he said, using fliers and phone calls. “Four people showed up.” But this time was different.

But she finds it’s harder than she had thought--she accidentally ruins the giraffe’s breakfast and is much too big for the frogs’ pond. Just when she’s about to give up, an unexpected friend finds her, and loves her just the way she is.
different. Instead of fliers, Garlick used social media to put out the call for help. Shortly after her conversation with Nelson, she posted a note to the organization’s Facebook page, along with a picture of the damage. “That’s basically why the American Alpine Club hired regional coordinators,” Garlick said — so they can keep a pulse on what is going on in the local climbing community. She tapped a few of her contacts to see if she could really make something happen. But she wasn’t expecting too much. The morning of the cleanup was cold and wet. Garlick’s first thought: “At least there’ll be a few of us,” she said. She knew a few friends were committed, but that was it, “especially because it was cold and raining.” The coffee shop, however, the designated meeting place, was packed with familiar faces when she arrived, and more people showed up at the top of the cliff. One volunteer from Jackson showed up with a bin full of cleaning agents; another from Madison had a bag of various-sized wire brushes. The scrub job took less than an hour, with people getting on their hands and knees with wire brushes and trading rubber gloves. Everyone worked in shifts — one person dumped water or diluted cleaners on the paint while another person scoured. Garlick was amazed at the turnout and dedication people showed, showing up on a workday to do miserable work in the rain. “It’s one thing for people to rally online,” she said, but this was something else. But if it was an imposition on any of the volunteers it wasn’t evident. They joked and laughed while the brushed, and they shared stories of climbing trips and plans for the winter. By the time they finished the rock looked unremarkable in any way — exactly the way they wanted it to look.

Commission chair explains jail break BY TOM EASTMAN THE CONWAY DAILY SUN
OSSIPEE — County officials are investigating how the jail break on Dec. 1 happened. Meanwhile, the exercise yard where the break occurred has been closed. David Glenn Hobson, 34, of York County, Maine, made his escape going over razor wire and by jumping off the jail's roof. He was on the lam until Tuesday night when law enforcement caught up with him in Rochester. Hobson at the time was being held pre-trial at the county jail on burglary charges. Authorities believe Hobson wished to harm his ex-girlfriend and her current boyfriend. Commission chairman David Sorensen said Hobson made a break for it when a corrections officer, who was monitoring both the exercise yard and an indoor room, went inside. Sorensen said the exercise yard is now closed. "We have to fix the corner of the exercise yard where the inmate escaped," he said. Hobson apparently saw a place where the roof was low. He had to deal with the razor wire before getting on the roof. Hobson was able to jump to freedom once he was on the roof, said Sorensen. Corrections department officials and the Carroll County Sheriff's Office are investigating the incident, Sorensen said. On Wednesday, corrections department superintendent Jason Johnson said architectural plans for the jail called for a covered exercise yard, but those plans were changed. Sorensen said the original plan for the facility, built in 2003, was to put the exercise yard straight off the building. But because that was the only area left for expansion, the exercise yard was rotated 90 degrees and left uncovered. Johnson has long said the number of corrections officers at
Commission chairman David Sorensen said Hobson made a break for it when a corrections officer, who was monitoring both the exercise yard and an indoor room, went inside. Sorensen said the exercise yard is now closed. “We have to fix the corner of the exercise yard where the inmate escaped,” he said. the facility is inadequate. Johnson says several studies of the jail show that the minimum number needed is 36. Currently, the jail only has 29 corrections officers. Sorensen said the commission proposes adding two more corrections officers in next year's jail budget, which is already up by 5 percent. The budget increase also includes training for corrections officers in regards to transporting prisoners outside the facility. In county government, a group of 14 state representatives, called the delegation, approves county budgets which county commissioners manage with help from department heads. Sorensen said he and Johnson took a site walk recently. One of the things discussed was putting a fence around two thirds of the rear perimeter of the building. The 2012 budget is still in flux. It will be finished in March. Sorensen said where the budget stands now, the amount to be raised by taxes is up about 17 percent. However, surplus funds from the construction of the new nursing home could be used to reduce that percentage. Other changes will be made between now and the end of March. The delegation will discuss the budget on Dec. 12 at 9 a.m. in the county administration building.

This is the second armed robbery in Madison within about a month. On Nov. 2, there was an armed robbery at Cobble Pond Farm in Madison. Less than an hour before that, two men robbed a man who was making a night deposit at a TD Bank in Conway. Two men, Joshua Riff, 21, of Conway, and Michael J. Rehmert Jr., 32, of Fryeburg, have been charged in connection to the armed robbery at the TD Bank. Madison police chief James Mullen said the "intensity" of crimes in Madison seems to be escalating. While he was happy to say that armed robberies are still uncommon, Madison has been dealing with a multitude of other resource-demanding types of cases like arson, sexual assault against juveniles and drug cases. "We're doing the best we can with what we have," said Mullen who noted that officers are coming off vacation and making personal sacrifices to handle these cases. Mullen stressed that he appreciates the support he gets from the community. The Madison Police Department has three full-time and three parttime officers, including the part-time chief's position. Madison police won't be asking for any more staff this year. But Mullen said at some point he'd like to augment his part-time police officer budget. Currently, he has two part-

He would also like to have the chief's position to be restored to full time. People were lamenting the latest news from Madison on The Conway Daily Sun's Facebook page. "Wow, it's hard to believe that the place I grew up is getting as bad as R.I. (where I live now). Really too bad!" wrote Amanda Eastman. Anyone who may have any information that would be helpful to the investigation is urged to contact Rowe at State Police Troop E at 323-3333.

A good Scrooge carries M&D's 'Carol' BY ALEC KERR
THE CONWAY DAILY SUN
Harvest Gold Gallery hosts ‘Kezar Lake Memoirs’ today LOVELL, Maine — Harvest Gold Gallery in Center Lovell, Maine presents the book “Kezar Lake Memoirs” edited by Catherine Ingram Stone. Stone will be available to personalize and sign copy during a holiday book signing and open house Friday, Dec. 9, from 3 to 6 p.m. In the summer of 1889, five young men arrived on the shores of Kezar Lake in Lovell Maine and set up their tents for five weeks. They climbed the surrounding mountains, caught abundant fish, and thoroughly enjoyed “camp life”. These men kept extensive records of their early visits to Lovell. Photographs, including those from their first camping expedition in 1889, still exist. “Kezar Lake Memoirs” is a collection of those writings, which reflect a defining time in Lovell’s history. The population and economy had been in decline for many years and tourism was about to become Lovell’s major industry. The five campers witnessed and documented the growth of hotels and boarding houses and changes in the lake’s usage and the area’s wildlife. They wrote about the long-lasting friendships they developed and the folklore they heard. Stone is the great-great-niece of Arthur Stone, one of the original campers on Kezar Lake in 1889. She has served as President of the Lovell Historical Society since 2003. Proceeds from the sale of this book go to the Lovell Historical Society. Wine and cheese will be served.

CONWAY — What would the month of December be without a local production or two of “A Christmas Carol?” Now one man can only take so much of the beloved Charles Dickens' tale of a cold-hearted, penny-pinching cynic who finds the spirit of Christmas and carries it all year. So, here I am reviewing M&D Productions’ good, but unremarkable production of “A Christmas Carol.” M&D Productions went a slightly different route with the classic. The production, which opened at Your Theatre in North Conway Thursday, Dec. 8 and is running Thursday through Sunday for the next two, is based on an adaptation by playwright Doris Baizley, which adds a story frame of a bitter stage manager (Bill Knolla) gathering a traveling troupe of actors together to mount a production of “A Christmas Carol.” But the actor playing Ebenezer Scrooge has gone rogue, forcing the stage manager to step up to fill the role. After that set up, the show begins proper and more or less stays true to the Dickens' story. There is a playful moment in which Knolla, now as Scrooge, flubs his first use of “Bah humbug” and has to be coached by the actor playing Scrooge's nephew Fred (Robbie Distasio) on how to do the line. It is funny bit, and more of that sort of self-aware winking would’ve helped add an extra twist to the material. Alas Baizley’s adaptation drops the theater inside jokes after that exchange. see CAROL page 15

FRYEBURG — "It’s A Wonderful Life," under the direction of Mary Bastoni-Rebmann with Arts in Motion, will be performed at Leura Hill Eastman Performing Arts Center at Fryeburg Academy with three shows — 1, 4 and 7 p.m. — on Saturday Dec. 17, and two shows — 1 and 4 p.m. — on Sunday, Dec. 18. This is the heart-warming saga of George Bailey (played by John Paiva), the Everyman of a small town of Bedford Falls, whose dreams of escape and adventure have been repeatedly squashed by notions of family obligation and civic duty. It is Christmas eve, and George’s guardian angel, Clarence (played by Craig Holden), descends to save him from despair, and to remind him (by showing him what the world would be like had he never been born) that this has been, after all, a wonderful life. This sparkling and magical play has your favorite characters: George and Mary (Julie Lanoie), Mother Bailey (Patty Hibbert), Uncle Billy (Marshall Allen), see next page
Ski area snow guns ready to go Page 14 — THE CONWAY DAILY SUN, Friday, December 9, 2011
BY TOM EASTMAN THE CONWAY DAILY SUN
HO, HO, HO, where's the snow? That's what everyone wants to know, after this past Wednesday night's miss. Bretton Woods, which has six trails and two lifts open, received four to six inches in the storm. Cannon got six and plans to re-open Friday with two trails; Loon (which has seven trails and two lifts) got four; Sunday River (13 trails, three lifts) got an inch, and Wildcat — which is tentatively set to open Dec. 16 — also got four inches, but it missed most of our areas. The storm blew through at quite a pace, with winds howling at 100 mph on the summit of Mount Washington and left an inch of rain in North Conway — which could have been a foot of the white stuff, according to local weather observer Briggs Bunker.
What's even more confounding is how warm it has been, which has until now hampered snowmaking. Temperatures were forecast to be more seasonable heading into the weekend, however, which will enable local snowmakers to do their stuff. Is it time to panic? No — not yet, anyway. We've still got two weeks until Christmas. In the meantime, both Attitash and Cranmore are operating their mountain coasters on weekends. Attitash has a tentative opening date of Dec. 10 — snsowmaking resumed Thursday, according to Thomas Prindle. Call 374-2368 to see if they will be offering skiing Saturday. Likewise, call Cranmore at 356-5543 for their latest projections. The children's indoor center is open this weekend. Looking ahead, areas shooting for a Dec. 16 open-

CAROL from page 13
“A Christmas Carol” is such a timeless tale it is hard to screw it up, but there’s also only so much you can do with it. How successful a production of “A Christmas Carol” lies almost solely on the quality of actor playing Scrooge. In Knolla, M&D Production has found a most excellent Scrooge. Knolla contorts his face into a believable nasty, grimace. He spits out iconic lines like “If they would rather die they had better do it, and decrease the surplus population” with a venomous vigor. When Scrooge has his change of heart, Knolla makes his childlike jubilation apparent. As the narrator, Shelly Morin brings seemingly boundless and joyous energy to the proceedings. Her bright smile is full of good cheer that easily transfers over to the audience. She also doubles as Jacob Marley, Scrooge’s former partner who warns of the three spirits, who will come to visit Scrooge. She makes a fittingly frightening Marley. Elsewhere the cast is hit and miss, but other highlights include Steve
93.5-FM. The Stone Mountain LIVE Annual Christmas Show is Dec. 11, and the Shop 'Til You Drop event returns Dec. 21. Meanwhile, Carol just announced that Peter Wolf of J. Geils Band fame is teaming up on New Year's Eve with Kevin Barry and Duke Levine. Cool! For reservations, call 1-207-935-7292...Great to see the community work that helped to make Conway Village's treelighting take place last Saturday. This week's good news is that the North Conway Village New Year's Eve fireworks will return after all at 9:30 p.m. (Cranmore's is set for 6:30 p.m. that night, too). It's great to live in a community where that holiday spirit is alive and well...That's it from this non-snowy leaf pile. Good luck with your shopping — and raking — chores!
Hoyt as an effectively earnst Bob Cratchit, Oliver Clay Storm as a charming Tiny Tim and Elaine Kondrat makes a pretty good Ghost of Christmas Past. The show is punctuated by moments of the cast breaking into carols making the show a semi-musical. The songs are brief, but well sung. People often forget how dark “A Christmas Carol” is, and in one scene in particular M&D’s Productions stages a truly creepy moment. The Ghost of Christmas Yet to Come scene concludes with the entire cast donning Scrooge masks and tormenting the real Scrooge. It is an unsettling moment that is enhanced by moody lighting. The set is sparse, with Scrooge’s bed as the centerpiece. Other furniture and chairs are brought in as necessary, but this is a simplistic staging and it works at achieving its modest goals. At around 80 minutes it is a quick and efficient production that gets the audience in and out and ends brightly. For more information or tickets, call the box office at 662-7591.

Brunelle: Power of positive skiing Dick Brunelle sat in front of the hearth in his Intervale home, the flames flickering on an unseasonably warm Marty Basch day. "This is a true story," he said. "I can't tell you how many people have heard it." About 10 years ago, the Cranmore ski instructor entering his 22nd year this season was on the chair lift with a 75 year-old female client. She had learned to ski the year before and wanted to take a refresher course because she and her boyfriend were planning a big ski trip. While on the lift, she turned to Dick and said while pointing down to a lesson, "That's my boyfriend over there in the learn to snowboard class." To Brunelle, that nugget symbolizes the draw of the slopes for people of all ages. "The mind is a powerful thing," he said. "It lets you do things but also holds you back. Be positive." Brunelle, 69, positively loves skiing. He learned to ski at age 4 in the 1940s at Littleton's Remick Park which had a rope tow before moving on to bigger mountains like Cannon. He and his wife Pat, a skier for some 35 years or so, frequent not just valley slopes but also ski areas across New England and in the West. They've visited pristine North American ski resorts like Vail, Aspen, Jackson Hole and Banff, and often ski with groups of friends ranging in size from six to as many as 75 both in the West and across New England. "We enjoy traveling as a group," Brunelle said. "The group isn't just from the valley, but from other ski areas and some ski clubbers we've met over the years. It also gives us more variety in our skiing. You may ski areas that you wouldn't normally ski." Brunelle spent 45 years in banking, culminating in being a senior vice president for Northway Bank working the commercial lending division. He's vice president of the Pequawket Foundation and a director for the Northern Community Investment Corporation. He's been involved with the Eastern Slope Ski Club for 26 years with various roles: volunteer, instructor, board of directors and as president. He and Pat moved to the valley in 1983. Their three children — two daughters and a son — skied and now a grand daughter plies the trails. "Skiing is a lifetime sport," he said. "It keeps you active. People ski into their 80s and 90s." Though in retirement he could ski whenever he wanted, he opted to teach. "I do it for the love of skiing," he

said. "That is something I try to share, to encourage in other people. I get satisfaction seeing people progress, have a good time and add skiers to the mountain." He's taught people from Massachusetts to the United Kingdom, Rhode Island to South America. "We see a lot of families learning to ski," he said. "Many people are coming back to skiing, sometimes because of family." Brunelle can easily ski from November to April, figuring he's on snow between 90 and 100 days per season. He started this season Nov. 26 at Cranmore, and even gave a lesson. "That was a great start," he said. "I had a 13-year-old snowboarder that wanted to go skiing. He had skied maybe when he was 3, switched to snowboarding, had a bad experience and wanted to go back. With a little work he was skiing in control with what we had open." A former competitive runner and present day recreational bicyclist, Brunelle didn't race in school. He eventually tried NASAR and later Mountain Meisters where he pushed himself hard in response to pressure from peers and friends. He's fast, but has eased off in recent years, preferring to save himself for those Western forays. "I like groomers and steeps depending on the area," he said. "I like trees. Out West I like to ski in powder and trees. They don't have the same type of powder here." Born in Worcester, Mass., save for the first six months of his life he's lived in New Hampshire. He loves the outdoors and skiing with all kinds of people. "I'm very fortunate to have met and skied with some wonderful people like Herbert Schneider, Les Otten and Phil Gravink," he said. "Part of it is because of what I did for a living and having that interest in skiing." Positively.
25 off-beat songs for Christmas BY ALEC KERR
THE CONWAY DAILY SUN
Over the years I've written quite a few lists of offbeat, dark, subversive Christmas songs. These songs are the alternatives to the familiar ones saturating the airwaves. I have now compiled them all in one piece and added five more. Enjoy. “Cool Yule” — Tony Rodelle Larson (1962) I discovered this a few years back mis-labeled as being performed by William Shatner. It is easy to understand the confusion as Larson's broken speech patterns do indeed bring to mind Shatner's riffs on such songs as “Rocket Man.” This beatnik take on “Twas Night the Night Before Christmas” is most definitely way out. “Monster’s Holiday” — Bobby Pickett (1962) After the “Monster Mash” became a hit this quickie sequel was churned out. There are some amusing riffs on holiday classics, but it is mostly a shameless rewrite of the original. It was a minor hit, but didn’t remain a holiday classic. “Silver Bells” — Paul Simon and Steve Martin (Sometime in the late 1970s) This rare show rehearsal starts out simple enough with Simon doing a lovely version of this classic song, but soon Simon's singing becomes mere backdrop for Martin deadpanning through a cynical monologue on the true meaning of Christmas that ranges from goofy to racy. “Father Christmas” — The Kinks (1977) Leave it to The Kinks, the same band that sang about an encounter with the transvestite "Lola," to write a song about mugging Santa. Ray Davies' sunny delivery masks the nastiness in lyrics such as "Father Christmas, give us some money/Don't mess around with those silly toys/Well beat you up if you don't hand it over." “Christmas in the Stars” (from the “Star Wars” album of the same name) (1980) Strange and frightening things began to happen after the tremendous success of the original "Star Wars" including an astounding awful 1978 Christmas special. Lessons weren't learned, though, and two years later came a Christmas album. "Christmas in the Stars" is so bad as to become campy fun. “There Ain’t No Sanity Clause” — The Damned (1980) English punk band The Damned released this song just in time for the holiday season, but it failed to chart perhaps because no one wanted to have the Santa Claus bubble popped for the youngest yuletide revelers. The lyrics are barely intelligible, but, it is the singa-long anthem-like chorus that brings this one home. “Christmas in Heaven” — Monty Python (1983) Monty Python was always known for loopy songs that often pointed out the hypocrisies or the idiosyncrasies of society. In the film "The Meaning of Life," Graham Chapman sings a caustic song about the consumerism and commercialism that runs rampant during the holiday season that includes lyrics like: "There's great films on TV/"The Sound of Music" twice an hour/And ‘Jaws’ one, two, and three." “Christmas In Hollis” — Run DMC (1987) This is a happy hip hop holiday song about Christmas in Queens, N.Y. The song includes such endearingly goofy lyrics as "It was December 24th on Hollis Avenue in the dark/When I seen a man chilling with his dog in the park/I approached very slowly with my heart full of fear/Looked at his dog, oh my God, an ill reindeer." “Merry Christmas (I Don’t Want to Fight Tonight)” — The Ramones (1989) The Ramones were still kicking around in the late 1980s cranking out three-cord ditties. Surprisingly, one of the best songs from this era is a Christmas song that manages to capture the tension of the season. “Santa Song” — Adam Sandler (1993) Everyone is familiar with Sandler’s "Chanukah Song," but he actually did a Christmas themed song that predates its by a year. In this one Sandler sings about all the reasons he won’t be getting a visit from Santa. Best line: “Santa don't like bad boys — especially Jewish ones.” see next page

“12 Days of Yaksmas” — Ren and Stimpy (1993) There have been numerous parodies of the “12 Days of Christmas." Which is your favorite really comes down to personal preference. As a youth in the 1990s, I’ll always have a special place in my heart for the warped antics of this dog and cat team. “Little Drum Machine Boy” — Beck (1996) "The Little Drummer Boy" gets morphed into an odd dance and rap flavored Chanukah anthem featuring "the holiday Chanukah robot of funk." Beck is a chameleon-like musician who blends different genres with amazing skill. It is hardly traditional, but certainly original and memorable. “The Night Santa Went Crazy” — Weird Al Yankovic (1996) Don't be fooled by the sweet guitar strumming of the opening. This Christmas carol turns humorously sour fast. Yankovic turns his twisted mind on Christmas in the story of the night Santa finally snapped and became a "big, fat, disgruntled yuletide Rambo." “I Won’t Be Home for Christmas” — Blink 182 (1997) Goofball pop/punk rockers wrote this anthem for all those who are driven up the wall by the holiday season. The song features bitter, but funny lyrics like: "It's time to be nice to the people you can't stand all year/I'm growing tired of all this Christmas cheer" “O Holy Night” — Cartman (1999) "South Park" dedicated a whole episode to satirizing holiday music back in 1999. This is one of the tamer songs from the episode with the spoiled Cartman butchering the holiday classic to hilarious effect. “Bizarre Christmas Incident” — Ben Folds (2002) This aptly named song from the tongue-in-cheek piano man unfolds a dark tale of a man encountering Santa in the night. The song answer the question of what would happen if Santa got stuck in the chimney. Needless to say, it doesn't end pretty. Best in enjoyed by those who like their humor black. “Elf’s Lament” — Barenaked Ladies (2004) On “Barenaked for the Holidays” the Ladies presented a collection of Christmas favorites as well as original songs featuring their quirky sense of humor. On this song an elf complains “I make toys, but I've got aspirations.” Bonus: this song features vocals from Michael Bublé. “Mr. Heat Miser” — Big Bad Voodoo Daddy (2004) The song first appeared in the 1974 stop-motion animation special "The Year Without Santa." Thirty years later the swing revival group Big Bad Voodoo
Daddy recorded the definitive version of the song for their holiday album "Everything You Want for Christmas." “I’m Getting Nuttin’ for Christmas” — Relient K (2007) Christian punk/pop band Relient K's does a fast, rocking cover of the novelty song “I'm Getting Nuttin' for Christmas.” The snarling punk attitude and crunching guitars suit lyrics like “I broke my bat on Johnny's head/ Somebody snitched on me” quite well. “Another Christmas Song” — Stephen Colbert (2008) Satirical pundit Stephen Colbert did a hilarious parody of holiday specials. The special's songs either subverted pre-existing songs or, in this case, are something completely new. Lyrics like “The tree is frozen, the winter’s bright/ Who’d have thought the wise men look so white” are made all the funnier by Colbert's authentic crooning. “Present Face” — Garfunkel and Oates (2008) This female comedy-folk duo combines disarming charming and simple hooks with goofy and/or raunchy lyrics. In this case the duo leans toward the silly side as they sing about the all too familiar face people make when the get a present they don’t like. “Christmas Tree” — Lady Gaga featuring Space Cowboy (2008) Leave it to Lady Gaga, the reigning pop queen of weirdness, to co-write a Christmas song filled with dance beats and dripping with sexual innuendos. It is most definitely not family friendly, but the audacity is admirable. “Merry Something to You” — Devo (2009) Yep, Devo, those quirky new wavers, recorded a song for the holidays. Blending cheery, generic holiday music with the synthesizers and drum beats they are known for, the band creates an infectious little ditty. Devo often used songs to satirize society, and that's most definitely the case here as the band proclaims: “Believe what you want nothing's really true.” “It’s Christmastime!” — Mad Tea Party (2009) This uke-abilly band vents its frustration for Christmas in this infectious two-minute ditty. The cynical lyrics include sentiments that anyone can relate to, if only fleetingly: "It's Christmas, forgot about the pagans and Jews/ It's Christmas and it makes me blue." “Christmas Night of the Living Dead” — MxPx (2009) It was perhaps inevitable that there would be a zombie-themed Christmas song. Punk rockers MxPx present this bloody tale of Christmas carnage featuring the chorus: "Christmas night of the living dead/My face is green and the snow is red."

Christmas in the village at Remick Farm Dec. 10 An evening drive around the Tamworth area is a delight with several lighted trees and festive figures. Our neighbor David Anthony, as always, has a wonderful display of festive ornaments, including several illuminated “snowmen” populating his lawn, and colorful “candy canes” along the fence. Thanks to everyone who has taken the trouble to brighten our evenings with sparkling decorations. Last Saturday was Christmas fair day in Tamworth. I began fair hopping at The Tamworth Guild Fair at the townhouse, enjoyed coffee and cookies and entered the silent auction, hoping to receive at least one of the great prizes . Pat Cook had some beautiful jewelry on sale Millie Streeter and her daughters Gail Dascoulias and Janet Conner were among those helping sell the many varied items for a good cause. St Andrew’s Boughs and Bon Bons displayed a fabulous array cookies and lots of wreaths, all hard to resist. I went on to the South Tamworth Methodist Church Fair and enjoyed the conviviality and a brief chat with Santa. The Community School really excelled themselves with several stunningly decorated theme Christmas trees offered for raffle. We went around the crafters’ tables and then onto the kitchen for delicious soup. Thanks to everyone who gave of their time last weekend to provide so many of us with a unique Tamworth pre-Christmas experience. News from the Brett School: congratulations to students and staff for their efforts to support our troops. About 300 items including letters, cards. Ornaments, scarves. neck warmers, Beanie Babies, were mailed last week. The school’s next project will be to make get well cards for the Wounded Warrior Program. This is all part of a school wide effort to show gratitude to others. The Tamworth Historical Society, Tamworth Congregational Church, Remick Farm and Museum,

Kennett Mountain Bikers fourth at New England’s ––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– SPORTS –––––––––––––––––––––––––––––
BY MARTHA LEICH CONWAY — The Kennett Mountain Bike Team finished its season recently by placing fourth as a team in the first ever New England High School Mountain Biking Championships. Only Camden, Maine, Proctor Academy and Gould Academy finished ahead of KHS with much larger teams. Fifteen teams from four states were represented in the event that was hosted by the New Hampton School at Blackwater Ski Area. In the A race, Mike Sampson of Plymouth was the winner, as he has been all season. Kennett’s Sean Doherty was third; Henry Gotjen, 15th; and Kyle Ross, did not finish. In the B race, Matthew Gregory was seventh; Mitchell Yahna, 11th; Aidan Laracy, 19th; and Brian Wonek, 20th. In the girls race, Meaghan Vertigen was ninth. In the C race, Gavin Yahna was 15th; Robert Schraeder, 26th; and Michael Jones, 33rd. There was a special coaches race, KHS coaches Sam Anderson and Chris Darling finished first and third, respectively. Kennett loses a great group of seniors to graduation, but many strong riders including Doherty, Gregory, and Gavin Yahna will be back next season. The top six riders from each school in each class were invited to participate in this event Nov. 5. The riders trained on the road and in the snow in preparation for the championships. The Eagles closed the book on the regular season the week before with a long trek to Dublin Academy for the first race hosted by that school. The fast double track course was wet and muddy, and very visible to spectators. Alvaro Migoya, of Proctor Academy, was the overall race winner in the A group. Kennett’s Ross, Gotjen, and Jake Van Deursen were 10th, 11th,
Meaghan Vertigen was ninth in the girls race at the first ever New England High School Mountain Biking Championships.
and 12th, respectively, while Thomas Gregston was 16th. In the B race, top local finisher was Fryeburg’s Matt Stryker, who placed fifth. Kennett’s Tim Laracy and Zack Cromwell were part of a rare fourway tie for eighth. Fryeburg’s Jake Schraeder was 12th while Kennett’s Chiachi Gregory, Aidan Laracy, and Wonek were 13th, 15th, and 17th. Fryeburg’s Forest Edson was 25th. In the girl’s race, KHS’s Vertigen had her best finish of the season in fourth. In the C race, Kennett’s top three finishers were Michael Jones, Danny Nash, and Gerry Gaynor. Ron Poitras and Robert Schraeder were 23rd and 26th. Thank you to our local coaches, Chris Darling, Sam Anderson, and Tim Connell.

By Holiday Mathis and personal significance. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You were there when a project, person or idea was in its infancy stage. Now it’s developed into its own exciting force in the world, and you’ll be running to keep up. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). A feminine supporter will bolster your ego and remind you who you really are. And though this may happen on a superficial level, it still helps you keep a strong faith in yourself. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Your sign mate Professor Edwin A. Locke notes, “There are two kinds of people in the world: the vulnerable and the dead. Those who live only to avoid hurt are the living dead.” AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Your attitude will keep you in perfect readiness to receive good fortune when it befalls you. Until then, you’re not in the mood to worry or obsess. You’ll be focused on following a new curiosity. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). The day will be socially oriented, and you’ll find many occasions to shake hands and exchange smiles and hugs. The work gets done when everyone agrees on the task and cooperates in their efforts. TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Dec. 9). Believe that known and unknown forces are on your side. All of your hard work, planning and organization will pay off in 2012. You’ll affirm your love and solidify new relationships in February. March favors your business ventures and financial transactions. There’s a breakthrough for your family in May. Scorpio and Cancer people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 2, 7, 14, 39 and 10.
Get Fuzzy
ARIES (March 21-April 19). Setting goals may be the start of creating a change, but goals are not enough in and of themselves to make the transformation happen. Action is the only way. Be confident, and keep moving ahead. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Regrets are normal, and you may realize you’ve been carrying around a few accumulated disappointments, as well. It’s time to cast these cumbersome burdens away. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You’ll be planning the rest of the month, but don’t plan everything. Footloose and fancy-free plans open a wider and more enjoyable sphere of possibilities than you could have dreamed up. CANCER (June 22-July 22). You will benefit from a technique for more constant inner balance. Repeat to yourself: “I am not under attack. Modifying my values and attitudes will help me grow.” LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You don’t have any wild ambitions for your loved ones. You want only for their happiness, in whatever form it takes. As for yourself, that’s a different story. A big dream is starting to come together in your mind and heart. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You’re not one to accept a naive reliance on luck, and yet some things are completely out of your control. So you’ll let go and hope for the best. And that’s precisely what will come of this. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You still have time to do something extremely special for a loved one by the end of the year. Keep in mind that a gift you make by hand will have deep meaning

by Abigail Van Buren
DAD’S GIRLFRIEND LOSES SLEEP OVER BOY’S ATTRACTION TO GUNS
DEAR ABBY: I recently met a man I love dearly, but I don’t agree with the toys he buys for his 10-year-old son, “Dale.” The boy plays violent video games and is obsessed with guns to the point that we can’t leave the house without him bringing a toy gun along. The video games he plays (unsupervised) are violent and gory and rated M (17 and over). Dale is not mature for his age. In fact, he often whines when he doesn’t get his way. He’s allowed on the Internet without supervision, and I have walked in and caught him surfing naughty pictures. When I told his dad, he laughed and said, “Boys will be boys!” Abby, I’m afraid for my 6-year-old daughter. A few weeks ago, Dale decided he wanted to play “good guys/bad guys” with her. When he grabbed my daughter in a choke hold and held a toy gun to her head, she became hysterical. I have since had nightmares that Dale will find a real gun, think it’s one of his play guns and shoot my daughter. I think Dale’s obsession is unhealthy, and I don’t think it’s healthy for my daughter to be around him. How do I handle this with my boyfriend? I love him and would like to spend the rest of my life with him, but I cannot marry him at the expense of my daughter. -- PARANOID AND PERPLEXED DEAR PARANOID AND PERPLEXED: How did your boyfriend handle the “good guys/bad guys” incident when you brought it to his attention? The answer to that question will provide you with insight into his ability to parent his son, and what your and your daughter’s future will be like if you marry him. If his reaction wasn’t to your satisfaction, then you must place your child’s safety above your heart’s desire, and you have assessed the situation correctly.
DEAR ABBY: I am a divorced, childless, independent and financially secure woman. I live happily in my upscale apartment. How do I respond to family members, co-workers and friends who constantly ask, “Why don’t you buy a house and quit throwing your money away paying rent?” I don’t want to buy a house and be tied to a 30-year mortgage. I’m perfectly happy the way things are. What is a proper response to those questions? Saying, “I don’t want to” hasn’t been enough. -- HAPPY RENTER IN HOUSTON DEAR HAPPY RENTER: The responsibilities of home ownership aren’t for everyone, and many individuals have realized it as bills for plumbers, electricians, roofers, insurance and property taxes mounted up. You might mention that to the inquirers, although your response to your wellmeaning friends, relatives and co-workers should have been sufficient. A way to change the subject would be to say, “Now, let’s talk about something else.” DEAR ABBY: My 22-year-old son told me he had a fight with his girlfriend. Am I allowed to ask him what it was about, or if they have resolved the problem? -- CURIOUS MOM IN MONTANA DEAR CURIOUS MOM: When your son mentioned the spat, that would have been the logical time to ask what it was about. If you start probing now -- after the fact -- it could be construed as nosiness. If he’s still seeing the girlfriend, it’s safe to assume the problem was resolved -- so keep your mouth shut, your eyes open and let him solve his relationship issues without involving yourself in them.
