THE CONWAY DAILY SUN

CONCORD — A local legislator is proposing a resolution that would ask the state’s federal delegation to oppose the Mount Washington trademark in Washington, but not all elected officials are behind the effort.

“The New Hampshire general court hereby opposes the right of any firm, corporation, or person to trademark the name Mount Washington,” the resolution says, “and the New Hampshire general court hereby requests New Hampshire’s congressional delegation to actively oppose any effort to federally trademark the name Mount Washington.”

The resolution is aimed at CNL Properties, which owns the Mount Washington Hotel. The company has filed paperwork with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office to trademark “Mount Washington” for the use of accommodation facilities.

CNL had been looking to trademark “Mount Washington” for a number of other uses, including spa, retail and entertainment services, but decided not to proceed after opposition arose.

CONWAY — The search is on for a new anchor tenant for White Mountain Plaza, where L.L. Bean was once located.

Bayard Kennett of RE/MAX Presidential is the leasing and selling agent for the 50,000-square foot complex built in the mid-1980s. L.L. Bean was the anchor tenant until moving a mile down the strip to Settlers’ Crossing two years ago.

When L.L. Bean left, so did many of the smaller shops nearby. The downturn in the economy was also a factor.

Kennett said his job now “primarily is to find a new anchor tenant,” and that he has “two prospects” he is speaking with now.

“That is what it will take to rejuvenate it, and then the smaller stores will fill in quickly — as long as the owners are willing to be very competitive in their lease prices,

and they are. They also plan to fix it up,” said Kennett.

He said the mortgage company at foreclosure auction Dec. 17 took back its note because the bids were insufficiently priced on that facility as well as the so-called clover building where Uberblast is located on the opposite side of the highway, according to Kennett.

Dim future for notes in the margins?

CHICAGO (NY Times) — Locked in a climate-controlled vault at the Newberry Library here, a volume titled “The Pen and the Book” can be studied only under the watch of security cameras.

The book, about making a profit in publishing, scarcely qualifies as a literary masterpiece. It is highly valuable, instead, because a reader has scribbled in the margins of its pages.

The scribbler was Mark Twain, who had penciled, among other observations, a one-way argument with the author, Walter Besant, that “nothing could be stupider” than using advertising to sell books as if they were “essential goods” like “salt” or “tobacco.” Like many readers, Twain was engaging in marginalia, writing comments alongside passages and sometimes giving an author a piece of his mind.

It is a rich literary pastime, sometimes regarded as a tool of literary archaeology, but it has an uncertain fate in a digitalized world.

“People will always find a way to annotate electronically,” said G. Thomas Tanselle, a former vice president of the John Simon Guggenheim Memorial Foundation and an adjunct professor of English at Columbia University. “But there is the question of how it is going to be preserved. And that is a problem now facing collections libraries.”

U.S. military deaths in Afghanistan.

Warplanes, troops besiege protesters in Libyan capital

––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– WORLD/NATION–––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––

CAIRO (NY Times) — The faltering government of the Libyan strongman Col. Muammar el-Qaddafi struck back at mounting protests against his 40-year rule, as security forces and militiamen backed by helicopters and warplanes besieged parts of the capital Monday, according to witnesses and news reports from Tripoli.

By Monday night, witnesses

said, the streets of the capital, Tripoli, were thick with special forces loyal to Colonel Qaddafi as well as mercenaries. They shot freely as planes dropped what witnesses described as “small bombs” and helicopters fired on protesters, making further demonstrations against the government impossible for the moment.

Hundreds of Qaddafi supporters took over Green Square after

truck loads of militiamen arrived and opened fire on protesters, scattering them. Residents said they now feared even to emerge from their houses.The escalation of the conflict came after six days of revolt that began in Libya’s second-largest city, Benghazi, where more than 220 people were killed in clashes with security forces, according to witnesses and human rights groups.

Yemeni leader rejects demands

SANA, Yemen (NY Times) — President Ali Abdullah Saleh, looking shaken at a news conference here on Monday, said he would not give in to the demands of protesters who have sought his ouster during 10 days of sustained demonstrations around Yemen.

“Why do they want to return to chaos?” he said, offering instead to sit down with the protesters and discuss political reforms, rather than abandon his three decades of authoritarian rule.

Mr. Saleh’s embattled government has faced street demonstrations both from organized opposition parties, who have extracted concessions but

demanded further reforms, and from young protesters seeking to emulate the revolutions that toppled the leaders of Egypt and Tunisia. Those two groups appear to be drawing closer. The Joint Meeting Parties, an umbrella group of opposition parties, said in a statement that it would “unite with the young protesters,” strongly condemning the “murder and acts of repression and terrorism suffered by young people and activists at the hands of the authorities.”

The statement was the most explicit support of the youth offered yet by the more established opposition, which quickly dismissed Mr. Saleh’s offer of dialogue as insincere.

Wisconsin GOP plans to work without Dems

MADISON, Wis. (NY Times) — With the capital braced for another week of protests and deadlock over a bill that would restrict collective bargaining rights for unions here, the Republican state Senate leadership took steps on Monday to take up other matters. It was a move that seemed intended to increase the discomfort of the Democratic state senators, who have fled as a way of stalling the proposed measures.

Scott Fitzgerald, the Senate majority leader, told his Republican colleagues to expect to resume work on Tuesday, which would leave the 33-member legislative body without a single Democrat as they debate and vote on governor’s appointees and other issues.

At issue is a normally obscure Senate rule that requires a quorum of 20 senators to vote on fiscal matters but just 17 to vote on other matters. There are 19 Republicans in the Senate.

Mr. Fitzgerald and other members of the Republican leadership planned to meet Monday to establish a schedule for Tuesday’s order of business.

Saturday accident closes Special needs student nets 6 points in 1st game Jackson covered bridge DURHAM — Kate Messler has been part of the Oyster River High School girls basketball team since she was a freshman, but she never got to play until last week, in her senior season.

Kate is a special needs student at the school with a rare developmental disability Trysomy 9p. As a player/ manager, she takes part in practice and all of the team’s outside activities, such as spaghetti dinners.

She never missed a practice and said she always dreamed of playing in a game.

Coach Dave Nichols said the athletic director of the team’s opponent on Thursday, Sanborn Regional High School, was very open to the idea of getting Kate into a real game.

And after Oyster River had built a 20-point halftime lead over Sanborn, Coach Nichols put Kate in for the start of the third quarter.

“The kids knew that she would be in this particular spot, give her a nice pass and let her take a shot or two,” said Nichols.

After a few missed shots, Kate sank a 3-pointer from about four feet behind the line.

“I just started crying,” said senior Hallie Miller, who is a friend and teammate of Kate.

Coach Nichols took Kate out of the game for a little while, but with just a little time remaining, he put Kate back in.

And lightning struck again.

At the buzzer, Kate launched another 3-pointer that went in. The gym exploded and her teammates rushed her on the floor.

“It felt good,” Kate said.

“Just to be part of that experience, to know that she was going to get out there and do something that she loved, it just meant the world to her, and it meant the world to the whole team,” said teammate Riley Maynard.

Her teammates said Kate has taught them a lot about sportsmanship, overcoming obstacles and the true meaning of high school athletics.

JACKSON — The town’s picturesque and historic covered bridge is closed today, after engineers determined Sunday there was significant damage following an accident on Saturday afternoon.

Jackson Police Chief Karl Meyers said the accident happened just after 4 p.m., when the bridge was struck on the approach from the village, heading toward Route 16.

“For reasons unknown, he drove into the side of the bridge,” Meyers said The driver of the car, Skylar Struble, 17, was not hurt.

Meyers said one of the town’s vol-

unteer firefighters also works for the Department of Transportation and arranged for engineers to look at the bridge Sunday.

“It turned out there was significant damage to a support beam and the bridge was closed and it still is,” Meyers said.

While the bridge is one of the first approaches to town for travelers heading north on Route 16, access to the village is available a short distance up the road, so the detour is not putting travelers too far out of their way.

Department of Transportation spokesman Bill Boynton said the bridge, which is maintained by the DOT, will be closed indefinitely.

A solid education at a reasonable price To the editor: My name is Jack Waldron.

I’m writing this letter to discuss my background and reasons for running for a school board position in Tamworth.

I moved to Tamworth in 2008 and currently live on Chinook Trail in Wonalancet.

From 2006-2008 I lived just over the town line in North Sandwich but traveled to the area often for hiking, skiing, and visiting with friends.

I am a graduate of Holy Cross College with a bachelor of arts degree in modern languages. After college I pursued a career in software engineering and computer programing, which proved to be a lifelong educational pursuit where I learned not only about computers but about their many diverse applications, such as medicine, accounting, telephony, and manufacturing.

My current community activities include serving as president of the Wonalancet Out Door Club, as cochairman of the Brett School Health and Wellness Committee, and as Thursday breakfast cook at The Other Store. On the health and wellness committee I am

leading a project to introduce composting of all kitchen and lunch food waste. The compost shed was completed last fall with volunteer labor and funds raised from grants; no taxpayer funds were used.

The challenge we face in Tamworth is to provide a solid education at a reasonable price. The modern educational environment is complex with many interdependencies. We must have open and effective communication between the community, school board, superintendent, principal, teaching staff and students to decide how to deploy our resources wisely. Simply cutting budget lines won’t accomplish this. We must work together as a community to provide a quality education at a price that taxpayers can afford. To accomplish this I want to: 1) increase community participation in the educational process, 2) provide better dissemination of information, and 3) increase use by the community of the physical facilities at Brett School.

Book on what we can do to restore earth To the editor: Nice to imagine a world without money, where we all take care of each other and treat the earth like a garden.

Just finished Lester Brown’s book, Plan B 4.0.

The first three chapters

make my “Dark Age Ahead” letter look optimistic, but the rest of the book tells what we can do to restore the earth.

Which would probably work, for an intelligent species.

I think many are, but some people sign petitions because they want the issue brought to the town meeting and discussed. In fact they are still making up their minds.

In fact Mr. Ham and other snowmobilers have helped me appreciate the positive impact that the Scrub Oak Scramblers have had on the entire area. Their trail system has brought much enjoyment to citizens in all seasons.

I support the recently passed town ordinance officially designating Lead Mine Road as a road that snowmobilers can use.

Tele-Talk

Do you think the southern leg of the bypass is worth building without the central and northern sections?

There are 34 responses to this week’s Tele-Talk question: “Do you think the southern leg of the bypass is worth building without the central and northern sections?” Nineteen people favored building the bypass; 13 said it should not be built.

I think they should do the southern portion. It’ll clear up a lot of that traffic that is coming into Conway Village.

No, I do not think it should be built.

We are a very mismanaged broke country. I say let’s maintain what we have for roads and bridges. Don’t even widen Route 93. There are plenty of contractors to bid on this routine maintenance work, although I am sure they would rather bid on new construction. Let’s maintain what we have. A Conway taxpayer.

It sounds like the bypass is just like the lights. Turn the lights off and hire more cops. You can’t fix stupid.

When something takes this long to complete then it must stink to high heaven, and that should be the clue that this is not a good idea.

I think the bypass should be built — north, south and central all together — to alleviate some of the backup through the village on weekends and especially holidays. And I think it would just keep commercial vehicles, logging trucks, tankers, cargo vans away from the center so that the traffic would move slowly and plenty of people can either go through the center if they want to or bypass it if they need to. So, I think it should all be done at once and finally be done and over with because we’ve been talking about this 15-plus years.

Well first I hope everyone read Nicholas Howe’s piece on “The Bypass Again, Again.” Great history and a great solution if it’s not too late to consider West Side Road for bypass use.

Otherwise, completion of the southern bypass leg is planned to at least allow Conway village to complete its decline into oblivion. A southern leg of the bypass will also move traffic a little closer to Berlin/Gorham. We all know that the many who are unable to completely bypass the lower valley long for pleasant days spent in the quiet solitude of a defunct mill town, now home to not one, but two attractive prisons.

I definitely think the southern leg of the bypass is worth building because I hear so many visitors and tourists complaining greatly about trying to get through Conway to get to North Conway. So somehow, if that would make it easier for them and we could still have merchants buying in Conway, I think it’s a good idea to avoid some of the bad traffic.

Yes, the southern leg should be built.

A good majority of the people coming here are coming in to shop anyway, and it will drop them right out there where all the shopping is. That way it will help people out in Conway village to be able to get around and do their business.

I’m from Conway, my name is Bob.

I’d just like to say I do not think any of the bypass should be built. We do not have half the traffic in this town that we used to have — maybe a week or two during the summer but that’s about it. So, I personally feel that no section of the bypass should be built.

It’s ridiculous. It’s just to put a few people to work and to hell with everybody else.

I certainly do not agree that the southern bypass should be built. The millions of dollars spent could much better be used to upgrade and repair the roads and bridges that we already have. With some of these in such poor and dangerous condition, how can we spend money we don’t have on more construction? This does not even take into consideration the damage it would do to residential neighborhoods, nor the inconvenience of months of construction, detours and congestion on the other end. And spending more money on studies is plain foolishness.

This is Nancy from Madison.

This is Hans in Conway. You know you have to realize that this bypass business is totally subordinate to the flying saucer landing pad up on the strip in North Conway. Now, when you’ve got a 1,000-foot in diameter cruiser disk from another solar system hovering over Conway or Albany, it makes the entire bypass issue redundant. That needs to be done first.

That’s really what your question should be: How does the bypass issue relate to the flying saucer landing pad project. I would appreciate you guys getting your issues prioritized here.

As evident by The Conway Daily Sun’s front page on Feb. 17, six cars and truck can’t be called a traffic jam.

From my 39 years of experience, this is how it is on Main Street most of the time — the traffic jams are a little frustrating, extremely short lived compared to the rest of the country. It is hard to believe at this time of financial crisis we could even consider a bypass.

Approximately 80 percent of the bypass will be federal money, that’s $320 million. That money will come from a government that has a $14 trillion debt, and $80 million from the state of New Hampshire, which also is in debt. I cannot believe that our fiscally conservative Republicans are not all over this — especially Gene Chandler, chairman of the DOT, who’ll have to fund another DOT Don Lyford study with taxpayers dollars. It’s time for Republicans to stand up and say no. If we can’t take care of fiscal issues here, how do expect the rest of the country to do the same? This is not my father’s Republican party.

Considering the cost of the current bypass, which is a little less than three-mile road paralleling Main Street, I would say to put that same crew on another highway would be something we couldn’t afford to do.

It costs too much. We don’t have the money in our government right now.

Yes, the bypass, the southern bypass I think should be built because it will

bring back a tranquility to the lovely village of Conway. But putting that aside, it would probably be a waste of money because the future looks very bleak as far as tourists visiting here.

With Barry Obama prohibiting offshore drilling, removing subsidies from oil companies, gas prices will zoom way past $5 a gallon, much more than the typical yuppie from Massachusetts can afford. And beside that, the huge tax increases that are coming from the present regime — federal tax increases — will put such a weight on the middle class that the middle class itself will no longer exist and Barry Obama will have succeeded in turning us into a Communist Marxist country where all are equal. No more you drive a fancy car and I don’t. We all will not be able to afford driving cars, so why build a road?

It doesn’t matter what we think; the state is going to do what they want to do. I thought we were in a recession. I thought people were losing their homes. I thought we don’t have enough for our school budget. Let’s spend x amount of millions of dollars on pavement, cut down the forest and ruin businesses and people’s lives.

The state takes property on eminent domain or pays pennies on the dollar, hires out-of-towners who have no credentials. The northern widening ruined people, property, historic artifacts. Quaint bed and breakfasts are now on a super highway — motels, cabins. I for one would rather skip the pavement, take a tax cut so I could afford health insurance or food for my family. Enough is enough. I’m sure those businesses that pay the conway tax rate would love to see the traffic, and the locals know better not to drive in it. If there is another money at the state house to fund such a project, and people are at the food pantry and losing their homes, it’s time for a revolution. Steal from the poor and give to the rich. Enough is enough.

Our family has lived in Conway for over 35 years. Does anyone remember the killing at the Army Barracks a few years ago? The traffic was horrendous and we had to direct people to the 302/113 light to go north. I believe we do need the southern bypass. When a fire erupts on Route 16 between the fire station south, west, east north, traffic is stopped as there are no other roads leading to the access of that fire.

If we don’t have the bypass, if the state doesn’t believe that we should, then I think that the town would have to put in some side roads so that we can get around the state roads. This would be really bad for our town, I believe, really difficult.

The southern leg should absolutely be built regardless of the perceived chances for the rest of the bypass to be built. After it is completed and opened, the need for the rest will speak for itself and the imperative will be clear. Antibypass forces in the town of Conway are working overtime to discredit and kill the bypass. This is because the bypass

isn’t meant to serve this town’s interest. Being bypassed doesn’t please the affected merchants, who are selfish and disproportionately influential, and a bypass only secondarily improves intown traffic flow. Conway interests only care about access into the town, not beyond it. However, when contemptible selfishness is put aside, it becomes clear that the purpose of the bypass is to serve the American public’s right to travel through this town, not just to it or within it. This is the purpose of all state and federal highway systems like Routes 16 and 302. An unobstructed highway system through the valley is absolutely essential to economic vitality and well-being of the regions north of the notches — now and for all time to come.

The bypass idea has been kicked around since the 50s or 60s. But times change and so do the traffic patterns. I thought breaking the project into chunks was a good idea, but the bureaucracy is so entrenched it seems like it’s really hard to adapt the “old” plan to the current situation. DOT’s most recent comprehensive bypass report is from 2008, and it looked at the whole package: the three sections plus additional “phases” -(Google for conwaybypassproject11339. pdf, 25 pages, dense but readable with good maps) A DOT report on the impact of doing just the southern section should be ready this fall. Good thing, because as it stands now, the Conway end of this bypass section would literally “end” right at the 113/302 interchange (that’s where you turn left to go to Conway Town Offices, if you came through Redstone.) That means all the bypass’s traffic that’s heading to Wal-Mart, North Conway Village and points north, would be dumped onto an already congested two-lane road signed at 40 mph and frequently travelled at 50, through a mixed commercial and residential neighborhood (aka, Eastman Road) Easy enough to put a traffic signal at the East Conway Road intersection to help folks coming back from the dump, but the road through Redstone will need a significant upgrade before it can safely handle an additional 5,000 cars a day (a conservative guess on my part; it’ll probably be closer to 9,000). Is the southern bypass a good idea? I think so, with proper planning. I think Conway Village might even prosper from the bypass. It’s not much of a destination now, but if it weren’t so hard to move around there, I think more folks would be inclined to go.

A little gentrification (Disneyfication?) and it could be a charming village district. The North-South Road didn’t kill the portion of the strip that it bypasses, and I don’t think the southern bypass would kill Conway. If the project could be started within the next couple of years, it would ultimately be less expensive than the same project started 10 years from now. It’s reasonable to believe that the next 20 years’ growth will equal or surpass the last 20. Let’s plan accordingly. Tracy McCarthy, Center Conway. see TELE-TALK page 16

Dog ski joring and more fun on the trails

BY TOM EASTMAN THE CONWAY DAILY SUN

CONWAY — Conditions have been spectacular for skiing so far this Presidents’ Birthday February school vacation week, both for alpine and cross-country enthusiasts.

The forecast called for continued clear skies for Tuesday, which would have been President George Washington’s 279th birthday. *** DOG JORING AT SUNSET: Don’t you love how late it’s staying light now that the season is progressing?

After work Friday, for example, yours truly skate-skied Whitaker Woods (part of the Mount Washington Valley Ski Touring and Snowshoe Association’s 65-km network) at sunset.

Part of the evening’s thrill was being offered a dog ski-joring run by fellow skate-skier Steve Fortin of Redstone.

After getting acquainted with his ski-joring loving English setter and Britany setter, I was strapped into a harness, and off the four of us went: Steve skate-skiing ahead of us, as the two dogs pulled me, waterski style.

I double-poled every now and then, but the dogs were more than up to the task at hand, pulling me as we raced through the darkening woods, all the while enjoying the pink-hued sunset’s last rays.

Skiing with the dogs was awesome — sort of like getting to swim with the dolphins, New Hampshire winter woods style.

How lucky can you get? It just proved that you never know what magic awaits if you just can get out of the office and into the great outdoors, right?

On Saturday, when the winds were howling, we went to the always family-friendly and inviting Bear Notch Ski Touring, where the wooded trails were well-protected from the day’s high winds.

On Sunday, under the day’s incredibly sunny skies, it was off to Jackson Ski Touring’s always excellent Wave Trail, which undulates kind of like a Slinky making its way down a set of stairs.

We then crossed Carter Notch Road at the Eagle Mountain House, got back onto our skis, and vaulted down the aptly-named Galloping Gale Trail.

We connected with the Yodel Trail, and double-poled down toward Mirror Lake and the Wentworth Golf Course, which took us back to the ski touring center. Beautiful!

We’ll say it again: Hey, we should live here — oh yeah, we do! If you’re only visiting? C’mon back soon! *** FUN IN THE VALLEY: From sleigh rides and Mountain Coaster rides, to ice skating, tubing, skiing, snowmobiling and shopping, February Vacation Week is a great time to play outdoors in snow-covered Mount Washington Valley.

The Ham Ice Arena (447-5886) will offer extended public skating holiday week, as well as stick-and-puck sessions for hockey players. Helmets are required for those sessions and full equipment is recommended. Skating is available outdoors in North Conway’s Schouler Park (rentals available at Joe Jones, 356-9411) and at the Nestlenook Farm Estate (383-7101) in Jackson. Purity Spring Resort (3678896) also offers skating and rentals at its covered rink. see next page

His family opened their first pizzeria in the Bronx in the 1940s and the rest, as they say, is history. Using only the best ingredients, Elvio’s serves large portions at reasonable prices. No premade crusts here. Pizza is still made the old way, Elvio’s way.

What it really comes down to, says Elvio, is: “Our pizza, is pizza.” 2888 White Mount Highway (1/2 mile north of village) 356-3208 or 356-3307.

You ask if we need to build the southern leg of the bypass even if we don’t build the rest. Conway needs help like they gave the strip and North Conway. I live south of Conway village. After I get through Conway village I have three choices of routes that even an out-of-towner can find and use. There is Route 16, West Side Road and the North-South Road. If there is a major accident or fire or it’s a busy holiday weekend, we have the choices. A few years ago there was a fire in the Majestic Theater in Conway. My granddaughter and I were at Settlers’ Green when we heard of the fire. We knew we would need an alternate route. We headed home around 8 o’clock. We got home south of Conway after 10 p.m. When we got to Conway we went to Tasker Hill Road to Cranmore Shores Road. When we got to Route 113 we planned on taking a right to Route 16 and go south to our home. Someone wasn’t paying attention so there was an accident at the junction of 16 and 113. We were told to take a left toward Madison and went to Silver Lake to High Street to Washington Hill Road to Route 16 and finally home. It was a Friday night so the locals were trying to get home and the tourists were trying to reach their destinations. Driving on Cranmore Lake Shores with heavy two-way traffic was an eye opener. If the state and town could get together and develop alternate routes in Conway for heavy traffic periods and unexpected fires and accidents life would be much simpler. They did

food since Oct. 2008. All food is distributed to local food pantries from Bartlett to Freedom with a goal of keeping companion animals in their homes.

Rozzie May Animal Alliance is dedicated to reducing the number of homeless animals by offering lowcost spay/neuter and the pet food drive. Rozzie May Animal Alliance has altered more than 2,000 animals and collected over 7 -1/2 tons of pet food. Together we are making a real difference, Thank You! Roz Manwaring Eaton an upgrade for the West Side Road.

Why not the same for Cranmore Lake Shores? What about a spur from Route 16 or the Kanc to the West Side Road? That would allow weekend visiters a chance to reach their destinations without getting lost. What else could be done? Would we still need to spend millions on a bypass? I think the reason the NorthSouth Road ends on Kearsage Street was to avoid Whittaker Woods, John Fuller School and the hospital. If the North South Road ended in the vicinity of Route 16 and Pine Street traffic could come out at the West Side Road intersection in case of fire or accidents in North Conway Village. I am also not crazy that the Conway Bypass supposedly starts in the middle of a hill with a truck lane. If you’re coming from Conway Village in the middle of a storm in the winter how do you continue up the hill after stopping for north or southbound By-Pass traffic? An area resident.

No! None of it should be built.

Close all the outlet stores, chain restaurants, big box stores, and huge hotels. Then the pain-in-thebutt tourists won’t come and jam up our roads. And, the natives can, once again, look at trees, instead of cars with out-of-state plates. This is Ralph in Eaton.

Will you please scrap the bypass idea once and for all! I would like to know who specifically keeps bringing this ill-fated idea up, and who specifically keeps acting on it? And why do we continue to spend money see next page

I’ll give you a traffic study that I have conducted — one filled with old fashioned common sense, Yankee ingenuity, simple clear uncomplicated thinking; and it’s free; don’t go through Conway village or the strip Saturday morning of July Fourth weekend at 11 a.m.!

Or simply plan your trips in town around the busy times; it ain’t a big deal folks! Traffic should be running straight through the commercial areas anyway! Why must we always want more, bigger, better, faster, quicker, more expensive? Oh, but it’s sooooo inconvenient now. Too bad; slow yourself down! Let me share a secret with you pro-bypass folks; people come to live here to get away from that crap! I did, and so did many others! We come here to try to take a step back to a simpler time; a slower time, a freer time, a happier time. Don’t screw it up. Progress is not always progress. Remember The Big Dig; Boston’s initially estimated $2.8 billion project that turned into a staggering $22 BILLION boondoggle! Look it up if you’re not familiar with it; it’s unbelievable! Yes we have a lot more common sense than those nutjobs down there, but you are setting yourselves up for serious problems that will absolutely unfold if you begin this; and guess who will pay for this nonsense? That’s right, the taxpayers! Does anybody beside Ray Shakir care about the taxpayers?

(Good work Ray! Don’t back down! You have many silent supporters! On the nursing home too!) Notwithstanding the taxpayer issue, the bottom line is, we don’t need or want the bypass!

And if you absolutely must have your bypass, Nicholas Howe has a sensible solid solution as outlined in last Saturday’s “Conway Daily Sun” regarding your “so-called” traffic dilemma.

Although truthfully, just forget about your three-tiered bypass altogether and practice the “kiss” principal; “keep it simple stupid”; no bypass! And if still, you progress-minded types must have your bypass, start it at the Massachusetts/New Hampshire state line and move it east or west of the moun-

tains all the way to Canada; skip us altogether and get on it yourselves; now that would be a hell of a bypass!

The following Tele-Talk responses were posted on The Conway Daily Sun’s Facebook page.

It does get pretty backed up down that way in the summer time. I’m glad I don’t live on that side of town. I’d have to leave two hours early just to get to work on time. Geesh!

Hell yes. Traffic is a mess. Do it once and do it right.

No. I think it is time to put a hold on the bypass again for awhile.

I think it would be very useful. I think if you comment you should say which side of the bypass you live on.

I’m betting only those who are not buried in that traffic regularly are the ones who naysay it. Build the bypass so that getting through Conway in the summer doesn’t continue to feel like we’re headed to the Fryeburg Fayuh.

I think we need a monorail! Yeah, a monorail. Don’t make me say it again!

Yes! Build the damn road! All of it!

Anecdotal evidence supporting a drop in property values: We were torn between a beautiful house near the Darby Field (just south of Conway) and one in North Conway. The traffic in Conway Village was the primary reason we chose not to buy there.

Just try getting in or out of the Conway Post Office.

I live in Fryeburg and work in Conway Village. Getting the throughtraffic which isn’t interested in stopping and shopping off of Main Street would make a big difference in getting back and forth. The argument that it will just load up Redstone is a red herring because at most it would take half the traffic that is on the Route 16 side of Burger King and put it on the Route 302 side. Big whoop and maybe a boon to the commercial zone on 302. They should count the traffic going through Conway to Maine, not just going to Jackson.

Yes I think it would be helpful.

Living in Tamworth and getting to work in the summer is always a challenge.

Maybe build another road from Conway into North Conway near the middle school to near Settlers’ Crossing — this time a two-lane road, each side has two lanes, because if you think about it really not many people come to the Mount Washington Valley to see Conway; they all go to North Conway.

Kennett speaking to two prospects for complex The bids went as high as $1.6 million, while the bank took it back for $1.7 million, according to Kennett.

Among the notables said to be in the audience was Robert Barsamian, part of the family that owns nearby Settlers’ Green Outlet Village and Settlers’ Crossing.

Also said to be on site was a representative of Ocean State Job Lot, which also operates a store in Ossipee.

“The note holder now owns both buildings. But that’s a good thing for two reasons,” said Kennett.

First, he said, the owner is interested in revitalizing the property through reinvestment and the low lease rates.

Secondly, he said, “They’re not interested in just dumping it but want to fill the buildings, which is good.”

“I think these folks,” said Kennett, “will be creative enough to revitalize the interest in those spaces.”

Built in 1985, the complex fronts Route 16 — and therefore, say many, the value is in the land.

The former L.L. Bean store has a second story, which is problematic for store operators, as it requires more staffing to keep an eye on product, and getting up stairs for older shoppers requires more effort.

But, Kennett says, creative solutions in terms of using that space for storage can be worked out.

The architecture, however, is now dated, especially when compared to Settlers’ Green Outlet Village and Settlers’ Crossing, located a mile south down the strip, and the latter location is

where L.L. Bean and Eastern Mountain Sports both relocated.

That complex is cited often by other Realtors and retailers when one speaks about the level of vitality of the North Conway strip.

As Dick Badger of Badger Realty and Earle Wason of Wason Hospitality Associates of Freedom and Portsmouth note, the changing marketplace requires that landlords upgrade their properties to remain competitive in attracting and keeping tenants.

“The value,” says Badger, “is in the land.”

His comments were echoed by Wason, who is representing Wally and Beth Campbell in the potential sale of the former Fandangle’s property at the gateway to the Route 16 strip.

Dot Seybold, general manager of the adjacent Settlers’ Green Outlet Village, said upgrades are imperative.

She also said it is important to have a landlord on site, saying absentee landlords don’t take the same interest to see buildings maintained and upgraded.

“If it had the right price, developers would scoop it up, because it has a great location — it’s right next to Settlers’ Green,” she said.

Kennett in response, however, said the building’s infrastructure has been maintained.

Asked whether the strip of the future will see existing structures torn down to make way for new ones, Kennett said, “I think it will always be the first choice to use what’s existing if it is suitable and I think it’s going to be increasingly more difficult economically to build new structures because of construction costs and regulation. So, it is probably going to be easier to retrofit if possible.”

TRADEMARK from page one

“It should have come as no surprise to us that such a broadly worded application would create public concern,” said Steve Rice, senior vice president and managing director at CNL and former New Hampshire Department of Resources and Economic Development commissioner, in a letter he wrote to the New Hampshire Union Leader. “For not anticipating that, we apologize.”

But protecting the “Mount Washington” name is still crucial to the company.

“When the 108-year-old Mount Washington Resort and Hotel filed a federal trademark application more than two years ago to protect its long-standing rights to its name, it did so after discovering that an adult

entertainment website had been linked to the name of this historic New Hampshire landmark,” Rice said. “In seeking federal trademark protection for the Mount Washington hotel we join businesses in New Hampshire and elsewhere that use just a geographical place name, without any additional terms, as their brand, and which have obtained federal trademarks for those brands with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office.”

But that argument didn’t sway state Rep. Gene Chandler, R-Bartlett, who sponsored House Concurrent Resolution 22.

“This is the only way some of us felt the public could make their feelings known,” Chandler said, now that the comment period for the application has closed.

Trademarking the landmark is inappropriate, he said, but there is nothing more the legislature can do.

“There’s no law we can pass. That’s why it’s a resolution.”

HCR 22 had its first hearing last week before the House’s State-Federal Relations and Veterans Affairs committee.

“I think it went pretty well,” said representative Gene Chandler, of Bartlett, the resolution’s sponsor.

“The popular opinion is supporting the resolution.”

But while there is support for the resolution, which is non-binding, there are also critics.

“I’m supporting the position of the Omni Mount Washington,” said executive councilor Ray Burton.

Hotel officials addressed locals concerns when they dropped the other trademark requests, he said, and now they should be allowed to conduct their business.

And he’s not alone. State Sen. John Gallus, whose district includes both the summit of Mount Washington and the town of Carroll, where the Mount Washington Hotel sits, wrote a letter opposing the resolution.

“The change to the trademark application has addressed our concerns and places it in line with businesses throughout the state that use New Hampshire landmarks in their trade names,” he said in the letter. “I think as the new legislature begins its session we should all work together to promote and thank those companies making a positive difference to our state and economy. It will only encourage other businesses to relocate and call New Hampshire their home.”

Former New Hampshire Supreme Court justice and congressman Chuck Douglas also weighed in on the matter, at the behest of CNL. “House Concurrent Resolution 22 is an unconstitutional intrusion on the private affairs of a corporate citizen,” he wrote in a letter to New Hampshire House speaker William O’Brien.

“The legislature does not have the legal authority to single out one citizen as the sole target of legislation nor does it have the legal authority to deprive that citizen of rights granted by federal law.”

Douglas was paid to review the resolution, according to CNL. The bill still has to make it through the State-Federal Relations and Veterans Affairs committee before the full House will vote on it. Then if it passes it will go to the Senate.

If it makes it through the Senate, copies of the resolution will be sent to house clerk to the President of the United States, the Speaker of the United States House of Representatives, the president of the United States and each member of the New Hampshire congressional delegation.

“I have no idea whether the resolution will pass or fail,” Chandler said.

“So far it’s been relatively overwhelming support.”

KHS Alpiners dominate the Meet of Champions

BY LLOYD JONES THE CONWAY DAILY SUN

The Meet of Champions for Alpine skiers was held last Wednesday at Cannon Mountain in Franconia and Kennett High, who won the state championships for boys and girls, was well represented.

Kennett Sophomore Jake VanDeursen, who has qualified first for the entire Eastern Region for the US J2 Alpine National Championships at Sugarloaf, March 3-11, won the slalom by over a second and a half, putting down the two fastest runs (30.79 and 30.44) for a combined time of 1:01.23.

Bow’s Anders Hanson (31.55 and 31.36 for 1:02.91) and Chris Hyland, of Linwood (32.29 and 32.08 for 1:04.37) rounded out the top three, finishing second and third, respectively.

Other Kennett skiers were Kurt Niiler, sixth, 1:04.82; Matt Halupowski, seventh, 1:04.87; Lucas Tinkham, 17th, 1:06.7; and Danny MacDonald, did

not finish.

There were 50 boys entered with only 48 competing.

In giant slalom, Hanson had the two fastest runs (35.64 and 36.19) to win by a second in 1:11.83. Gilford’s Michael Workman was second, 1:12.86 while Halupowski finished third, 1:12.92.

Other Eagles included: Niiler, fifth, 1:14.62; Tinkham, 13th, 1:19.28; Van Deursen, who had a miscue on the first run (52.66), had the second fastest second run (36.39) to finish 30th. 1:29.05; and MacDonald, 33rd, 1:38.48.

For the girls, in slalom, Plymouth’s Nika Mosenthal, who won both individual races in the State Meet the week before, won the race turning in the fastest two runs (32.29 and 31.88) for a combined time of 1:04.17.

Kennett’s Katie Burton was hot on her skis in 1:05.13 (32.8 and 32.33) while Annie D’Elia, of Plymouth, claimed third in 1:05.22. There were 50

girls entered in the race with 44 competing.

In the GS, Paige Roberts, of Profile took top honors in a combined time of 1:18.16 (38.47 and 39.69) Mosenthal had the fastest first run (36.9), but fell on her second run (1:06.24) to finish 37th overall in 1:43.22.

Prospect Mountain’s Danielle Tidd was second in 1:19.70 (40.0 and 39.7). Gardella, of Kennett, rounded out the top three in 1:21.30.

Other KHS skiers were Leich, fourth, 1:22.26; Burton, sixth, 1:22.99; Canter, 14th, 1:26.08; Karabelas, 23rd, 1:30.15; and McPherson, who had the third fastest first run (38.61), but had a hiccup in the second run (55.01), was 28th, 1:33.62.

BY LLOYD JONES THE CONWAY DAILY SUN

CONWAY — The Kennett High ice hockey team snatched victory Friday night when Logan Spoor lit the lamp with 10 seconds left to beat Hollis-Brookline 3-2 on the road in a contest marred by penalties.

Friday’s win lifted the Eagles to 10-3-1 on the season in Division III play while Hollis-Brookline slipped to 9-5.

The victory came on the heels of a 3-3 home draw with Belmont-Gilford (13-3-1) on Wednesday at Ham Ice Arena.

Coach Michael Lane was pleased with the play of his Eagles, especially collecting all the points at Hollis-Brookline, a site that had been a nemesis to KHS over the years.

“We got the game-winner with 10 seconds to go,” he said. “Logan ripped a slap-shot through a screen into the lower corner of the net.”

It was a penalty-filled game with Kennett getting saddled with 14 penalties forcing it to skate shorthanded for 22 of 45 minutes.

The Eagles took the lead three minutes into the first period. Dillon Smith found his brother Chuckie with a picture-perfect pass and the talented senior made no mistake uncorking a rocket that whizzed right under the crossbar.

Kennett extended the lead to 2-0 in the second period when Brad Canavari sent Anthony LaRusso in on a two-on-one break. LaRusso beat the Cavalier goalie to his blocker side for his second goal in as many games.

The Cavaliers came back to knot the game in the grid period, scoring with 9:30 to play on a follow-up of a rebound and 4:13 remaining on a power-play after KHS had killed off two five-on-three situations.

The Cavaliers had 11 power-play chances to just three for Kennett.

The Eagles responded in the final seconds when Spoor took a feed from Kevin Murphy and found paydirt. Justin Munck also picked up an assist on the play.

“That was a real nice shot,” Lane said, “Logan put everything he had into it, but more importantly it says a lot about the way our team responded. “Two nights ago (against Belmont-Gilford) we had a two goal lead in the third and couldn’t hold on. To see the guys in the same position and respond with the win, shows we are really growing up as a team. ”The kids played hard — I thought we worked real

hard in all three zones,” he continued. “We always struggle in that building. I wouldn’t say we struggled Friday but we had to overcome some adversity with all the penalties. The whole team played well.”

Jonny Parkhurst picked up the win in net for the Eagles recording 19 saves. Kennett out-shot HollisBrookline 26-21.

Earlier in the week, against Belmont-Gilford, Kennett played another nail-biter. The Eagles jumped out to a 2-0 lead into the second period thanks to a Canavari tally with 8:28 left in the first period and a LaRusso strike with 10:02 left in the second only to see the Bull Dogs battle back twice from two goal deficits Parkhurst was nothing short of sensational

between the pipes for the home side making a series of highlight reel saves early and often.

The Bull Dogs eventually got on the scoreboard with 8:10 to play in the second period, scoring after Parkhurst made two initial saves. He finished with 43 saves on the night.

Kennett carried a 2-1 advantage into the third frame and upped the lead to 3-1 when Dillon Smith found the back of the net from Murphy with 11:05 to play.

The Bull Dogs pulled a goal back with a shorthanded effort with 7:17 remaining and netted the equalizer with 5:19 left. see next page

Kennett handles Pembroke; closes out regular season this week

BY LLOYD JONES THE CONWAY DAILY SUN

CONWAY — The Kennett High girls basketball team had four players tickle the twine for double figures for the first time this season on Thursday night as the Eagles flew past Pembroke Academy 70-34 in Concord.

The win lifted the girls from Conway to 15-1 on the season in Division II play and 18-1 overall on the winter. The Spartans slipped to 2-14 in the standings.

Kennett has in all likelihood secured at least the No. 3 seed for the playoffs which will begin next week.

Souhegan (15-0) became the lone unbeaten in Division II with a 60-56 home victory over previously undefeated Lebanon (15-1) on Saturday. The Raiders dropped into a tie foir second with Kennett.

KHS beat Lebanon in the state championship game laster winter and also bested Souhegan in the quarterfinals along the way coming back from a 19-point deficit.

Coach Peter Ames was pleased with his team’s performance Thursday, particularly after the first quarter. The varsity squad had to sit through a freshman and then a junior varsity game before finally taking the court.

“We were a little ragged in the first quarter,” Ames said. “It was a long day of sitting four hours in a gym and waiting to play. Triple-headers on the road make for a long day and can be tough on visiting teams.”

Kennett led 12-10 after the first quarter, but the Eagles took flight in the second quarter outscoring the host Spartans 20-4 to led 32-14 at the half.

“It wasn’t out best game but a good game from the perspective we were able to play a lot of girls,” Ames said. “It was the first game where we had four girls in double figures.”

Melissa Frase paced the Eagles with a game-high 16 points. Casey Blakely added a new career-high 15; Allie Wagner, 14; and Lauren Kidder, 10.

Lauren White hauled down nine rebounds while Blakely had eight.

“Casey played probably her best game to date,” Ames said. “She did a lot of things very well. A lot of points for Casey and Lauren Kidder came off nice passes from Allie and Melissa. Allie ended up with five assists while Melissa had nine. It was good to come out of there with a win and it was a nice way to get everyone some minutes.”

“I’ve got to give Belmont-Gilford credit,” Lane said.

“They’re a a feisty team that never quit.”

The game went to an eight minute overtime and although Kennett out-shot the visitors 11-6 in the extra session, no one was able to score. It was the Eagles first tie in five years.

“It’s a little disappointing because we had two goal leads twice,” Lane said.

Division III standings as of Monday were: Somersworth, 16-0; Alvirne, 14-2; Belmont-Gilford, 13-3-1; Kennett, 10-3-1; Pelham-Windham, 11-4; Hollis/Brookline, 9-5; John Stark, 9-7; Kearsarge, 8-7; Portsmouth, 7-10; Pembroke-Campbell, 5-9-1; Moultonborough-Interlakes, 5-10-1; ConVal, 5-11; Manchester West, 3-9; Souhegan, 4-11; MonadnockHinsdale, 2-13; and Laconia-Winnisquam, 0-17.

With Alvirne topping Portsmouth 4-1 Saturday night on the road, the field for the playoffs was secured. The top eight teams are all in but the some of the seedings are still be determined. Coach Lane said the Eagles could finish as high as third if they can run the table or as low as sixth if things go south.

Kennett is at Pelham-Windham tomorrow night and then plays Thursday at home at Ham Arena at 3:45 p.m. against Manchester West in a make-up game.

Following Thursday’s game, the Eagles will host their annual “Skate with the Eagles,” a show of appreciation by the team to all MWV Youth Hockey Players, season ticket holders and pair gnarl admission patrons. You can skate with the team and even collect autographs

week. Today, the Eagles will travel south to play Coe-Brown Academy (6-9). The Bears, who beat Kingswood 47-29 in Wolfeboro on Tuesday, have been a team of streaks this winter. They’d dropped three in a row before besting the Knights and before that had ridden a four-game winning streak. They opened the season losing four in a row.

KHS is at home Thursday for Senior Night hosting Laconia at 6 p.m. The Sachems, who are 8-8, fell 46-37 at home to Kennett on Dec. 22. Laconia is coming off a 69-39 loss at Lebanon on Friday night and currently sit 13th in the standings.

“I’ll probably start all of the seniors,” Ames said, smiling referring to his trio of Frase, Sam Meader and Wagner, the team’s captains, who have been three-year starters.

The Division II playoffs will begin Tuesday, March 1 with the preliminary round game at the the home of the higher seed. Kennett will host someone at 7 p.m.

If the Eagles win their playoff opener, they’d have the opportunity to host a quarterfinal contest on Friday, March 4.

The semifinals are scheduled for Monday, March 7 at Southern New Hampshire University in Manchester with games at 5:30 and 7 p.m.

The championship game is slated for Friday, Mach 11 at Southern New Hampshire University in Manchester with tipoff at 7 p.m.

KHS boys facing meat of their schedule CONWAY — Play hard and play with pride — those are the two goals the Kennett High boys basketball team will carry into the final 10 days of the regular season in Division II play. The Eagles (1-14 and 4-15 overall) have run into a buzz-saw of a schedule over the past couple of games facing some of the iron of the league who are making runs at top seeds in the pending playoffs.

Kennett will host Coe-Brown Academy (10-5) and its 7’ center today at The Nest at 6:30 p.m. The Eagles will close out this week at Laconia (5-11) on Thursday and wraps up the season March 1 hosting Kingswood (7-7).

The Sachems are fighting for a playoff berth currently sitting 17th with the top 16 getting into the tournament. The Knights are seeded 14th.

Last week the Eagles fell 70-25 at home to Pem-

broke Academy (12-2) on Thursday; 60-39 at Oyster River (9-5) on Tuesday; and 77-22 at home to Portsmouth (11-3) on Feb. 11.

“Everybody must be talking to each other about us because every coach is playing us the same way,” Steve Cote, Eagles’ head coach, said. “Unfortunately, we don’t have the horses to compete with the Pembroke’s, Oyster River’s and Portsmouth’s this year. That’s not a knock against our kids, I know they’re playing as hard as they can and no one has given up. We ran into three very talented teams in a row.”

Kennett hung with Portsmouth for a quarter, trailing 11-9 after the first frame, but then things got a little ugly. see EAGLES page 25

EAGLES from page 23

The Clippers full-court pressed the Eagles for the entire next two quarters limiting the hosts to just seven points while opening up a 58-16 lead.

“They’re known for their defense and were on our backs all night,” Cote said.

The Eagles had a much better showing at Bishop Brady (4-12) just two days earlier in Concord, falling 64-59.

“You always hope going into a game that you give yourself a chance to win,” Cote said. “We had our chances. This was a game both teams circled on the calendar.”

The Eagles trailed by two after three quarters and it was a see-saw final eight minutes. With 1:29 remaining, KHS trailed by three.

“They had the ball and we knew we needed a turnover or had to foul,” Cote said. “We almost got the turnover but ended up having to foul and they made both shots and put the game away at the line.

Robert Starkey paced the Eagles with 14 points.

Nate Ela and Matt Lautenschlager also netted double figures with 13 and 12 points, respectively.

“The kids worked hard,” Cote said. “A couple of bounces our way and it could have been a better outcome.”

Kennett freshmen play near flawless in Pembroke victory; eye Coe-Brown today CONWAY — An undermanned Kennett High freshman team came out firing on all cylinders against a larger Pembroke Academy reserve squad Thursday and came out on top 45-34.

Kennett, with only one sub on their bench managed to stay out of foul trouble for the entire game according to Coach Bobby Strong. Knowing the Eagles needed to stay away from fouls, they packed in a standard 2-3 zone defense and managed to control the boards against the Pembroke freshmen while amazingly not recording a single foul for the entire first half.

In an evenly matched game, Kennett led 13-10 after the first quarter due to great defense and beating Pembroke in transition.

At half the Eagles were up by a mere two points, 21-19, but because they hadn’t fouled in the first half were able to come out in a full-court trap defense which resulted in an 8-0 run to begin the third quarter.

Kennett’s balanced scoring attack was led by

Frankie Drew who netted a game-high 20 points, followed by Tanner George with stellar shooting from the outside draining three three-pointers, including a buzzer -beater at the end of the third quarter, had 11 points; Carter Allen, using his size, quickness, and desire to score with 10; and Richie Crouse, who controlled much of the offensive boards while scoring four points and pulling down many rebounds.

Strong praised captains David Mays and Danny Olson for providing much needed relief when subbing was necessary and were able to fill in at a variety of positions.

The Kennett freshmen will play host to Coe-Brown Academy today followed by a March 2 appointment with Kingswood coming to town for the final game of the season.

Kennett will try to avenge an early-season loss to Coe-Brown and will look for a season sweep against Kingswood having won the first encounter in Wolfeboro.

Eaton Town Column

Nancy Williams 447-5635

I was saddened to read about Janet Bridgham’s mom’s recent death.

Helen Gullberg Dyer, 98, died on Feb. 11 at the Center for Extended Care in Amherst, Mass. Born in 1912 of Swedish immigrant patents, she grew up in Newport, R.I., and studied to become a secretary. While working in Boston, she became a member of the Old South Church. She met Henry Dyer in 1934 and they married later that year. In the late 1940s Helen and Henry bought property in Eaton Center where the family spent most summers on Thurston Pond. When in Eaton, Helen was active in The Ladies Circle (now the Eaton Community Circle), and participated in their summer fundraising. Many long time friendships developed in those summer months. I met Helen several times and thought she was the sweetest and nicest lady. She is survived by her three children, Janet Bridgham, Nancy Babb, and Paul Dyer, eight grandchildren and six great-grandchildren. I send the family my deepest condolences on their loss.

Attention: Eaton needs a new school bus. The current bus, a 2001 model (72 passenger) has 164,000 miles on it. Right now the year to date cost for maintaining this bus for six months only is $6,044. The bus that the School Board would like to get is a 54 passenger bus, at $81,000. The smallest bus is a 36 passenger, and costs $78,400.

The largest bus is a 72 passenger and costs $85,200. There are also two other buses, a 65 seater for $83,000 and a 42 seater for $78,800.

The school board believes we would be very shortsighted to buy a smaller size in light of the fact that we can only project enrollments for five years and are buying a bus to last 10 years.

Buying the smaller size would also necessitate the need to maintain our current 11 year old bus as a spare, which over a 10 year period would cost us far more than the $2,600 savings on purchase for one year only. This figure is the difference between the $81,000 bus they want to get and the smallest bus at $78,400. There is a chart posted at Eaton Village Store that shows all the different figures.

We would like to urge voters to participate in the annual school district

meeting on March 8 at 5 p.m. We need your votes, so please come to this very important meeting.

S All

When I first started working at Gibson, I discovered that part of my job would include writing a weekly column called the Gibson Gleanings.

I was told the column should include information about the center, any programs or activities taking place as well as the occasional “shout out” or kudos to our many amazing volunteers. One of those amazing individuals was a “feisty” little, white haired, New York native named Jeannette Losee. We lost this special lady recently but her efforts for and effects on Gibson remain. It is for this reason that our nutrition director, Francine wanted to share a few of her own memories: It was during this week of celebration of love on its various levels that I’d like to recall a volunteer whose impact on the infancy and growth of the Gibson Center was profound. We lost Jeannette Losee during the busy Christmas season and the times did not allow me to recall her acts of kindness in transforming Gibson into the vibrant center that it is today. From its earliest beginnings at Thursday Night Bingos, Jeannette, alongside our foundress, Glenna Mori, hosted and baked every single week for countless years, beginning a fund-raising process that today has exceeded anyone’s expectations. The countless bake sales, flea markets, the preparations for holiday dinners, the latter of which continued until Jeannette moved to Mineral Springs, represented thousands of volunteer hours for almost 30 years. Jeannette was always the first on the Nutrition Advisory Council to volunteer for creating hundreds of handmade holiday favors and purchasing copious bags of goodies. We will always remember Jeannette for her great big heart and her modest, understated approach, always getting the job done to keep the programs and the Gibson Center going and growing.

Thank You, Jeannette.

I’d like to close by saying thank you to all our volunteers and members.

You are the reason this center is what it is today. Have a good week and God bless!

Monday, Feb. 21: President’s Day — The Gibson Center will be closed today.

Tuesday, Feb. 22: Strength, balance

It is hard to pinpoint standout actors as all roles were well cast although I have to mention the irrepressible, effervescent Anne (Jessica Biggio) and her beloved Pim (Richard Russo) both of whom have scenes which will likely bring you some tears.

A top scene was the gut wrenching scene when Anne’s sister Margot (Courtney Phelps) begs her dad not to leave the safety of the Annex. Her sheer terror is yours and is one of those moments in theater when the acting is so real you forget you are part of an audience. The play is superbly done and too important to miss.

Kennett High honors its 1,000-point scorers

THE CONWAY DAILY SUN, Tuesday, February 22, 2011— Page 31

BY LLOYD JONES THE CONWAY DAILY SUN

CONWAY — In the 88 years that Kennett High School has been in existence, just 10 Eagles have accomplished a rare feat — scoring 1,000 points on the basketball court for their school. Feb. 14 basketball royalty was officially recognized with the unveiling of the 1,000 Point Club banner in the school’s gymnasium. Seven members of the elite club were on hand to be recognized for their accomplishments.

The 1,000 Point Club members are: Debbie Russell Parsons, graduated in 1989, scored 1,872 points.

Allie Wagner, will graduate this June, has scored 1,400 points and counting.

Jeff Perry, graduated in 1990, scored 1,278 points.

Erin Russell, graduated in 1994, scored 1,270 points.

Kristen Umlah, graduated in 1999, scored 1,203 points.

Alison MacDonald, graduated in 1994, scored 1,153 points.

Larry Day, graduated in 1982, scored 1,042 points.

Trevor MacDonald, graduated in 1998, scored 1,040 points.

Abe Wrobleski, graduated in 1995, scored 1,020 points.

Roger Blanchard, graduated in 1970. scored 1,013 points.

“It was a great ceremony,” Peter Ames, current head coach of the Kennett High girls’ basketball team, said. Ames coached Day, Perry, Wrobleski, Umlah and Wagner during their playing careers.

“It was good to see everyone who could come back return along with their families. I thought it went really well.”

On hand for the ceremony were Day, the Russell sisters, Perry, Wrobleski, Umlah and Wagner, who added to her total that evening scoring 28 points in the 71-46 victory over Kingswood.

The MacDonald siblings, Ali and Trevor, were unable to attend due to work commitments in Washington D.C., and Indiana, respectively. Trevor did call his parents, Karen and Gary, who were on hand, minutes before the ceremony and shared that he and his wife are expecting a baby boy this summer.

Neither Blanchard, who is a resident at Crotched Mountain Rehabilitation Center since being hit by an automobile over 35 years ago, nor any of his relatives were able to attend.

“I’ve got to give Kingswood and its coach Grady Charland credit for agreeing to let us do the ceremony beforehand,” Ames said. “Grady’s dad, Red, coached the boys at Laconia when Larry played. He knew some of the names and actually remembered playing against Abe in high school.”

Bob Russell, who coached his daughters Deb and Erin along with Alison MacDonald and Umlah (for a year), was on hand for the ceremony and also was the color analyst for Valley Vision (Channel 3) TV. “I’ve never been as a player or a coach that big on recognition types of things,” he said. “I admit I was skeptical when I heard the school was going to do this, but it was great and the right thing to do. When they dimmed the lights and JJ (Jon Judge, longtime announcer of Kennett basketball) started to read the bios, it was terrific.

“I knew all of these players and even played with Roger when the faculty had a basketball team when he was right out of high school,” Russell recalled.

“Shortly after that he was in a bad car accident.

The one underlying factor with all of these folks is not only were they all good athletes but they were quality kids and continue to be shining lights in the community. They’re wonderful role models for our younger kids.”

ROGER BLANCHARD Blanchard was renowned as one of the state’s best outside shooters, scoring 1,013 points during his basketball career — a number that is all the more remarkable since he played before the three-point shot was adopted as a part of the game.

During his playing days at Kennett, Blanchard

It was a night to remember Feb. 14 when Kennett High’s 1,000 Point Club was unveiled. On hand for the ceremony were Abe Wrobleski, Jeff Perry, Deb Russell Parsons, Larry Day, Erin Russell, Kristen Umlah and Allie Wagner. Ali MacDonalod, Trevor MacDonald and Roger Blanchard were unable to attend.

was the primary offensive threat on three Kennett tournament basketball teams. Besides excelling in basketball, he was also an outstanding baseball player and golfer.

“He was the real deal,” Sut Marshall, of the Kennett High Sports Hall of Committee, recalled. “He had the goods.”

“He was a very fine athlete,” said his coach Gordon Mann. “He was a very good competitor. Sut spent a lot of time with him in the fall of his sophomore year working on fundamentals and it paid off.

“Roger was one of the few people I ever coached who could be up front on a full-court press,” he continued. “He had very quick hand-eye coordination.

He played on a team where we had a number of scorers. He didn’t shoot much but took good shots.”

LARRY DAY Considered by many the best all-around basketball player in Kennett history, Day made a living shooting from the top of the key while playing varsity basketball for coach Ames. Day scored his points in just three years, and without the three-point line.

He netted his 1,000th point with just two games to go his senior season in early February, 1982.

“That was against Kingswood,” Day recalled. “It was a free throw.”

On another night in February, he single-handily dismantled the Laconia basketball team by scoring 43 points, which still stands as the Eagles’ singlegame point record. That night he also surpassed Blanchard’s point total to become the school’s leading scorer.

“You don’t get many nights like that, and when you do you remember them,” Day said, smiling.

“Most of them were from deep. You’d have been looking at mid-50s if there had been a three-point line. It was a zone thing — I could tell I was in the zone that night — it was one of those nights when you feel it.

“The 43-point night is probably by best (Kennett basketball) memory,” he continued. “Laconia had beaten us pretty good down there. I think they were ranked in the top five in the state and had two or three big trees in their lineup. They came up here and they were expecting to handle us again. We played as a team that night were unselfish. Fortunately, my teammates recognized I had the hot hand and they got it to me.”

Day scored in double figures every game of his

junior and senior seasons, an incredible 40 in a row.

Day, who graduated in 1982, and is now a mainstay in the Kennett’s fleet of bus drivers while living in Conway.

“Larry was really the primary scorer on our team in 1982,” Ames recalled. “At a time when there wasn’t the three-point line, getting 1,000 points was very unusual. He was just the second player to do it at Kennett and I believe the only one to do it in three years. He never played varsity his freshman year.

Getting two points at a time over three years, it’s pretty tough to get to 1,000. We didn’t have as many Christmas tournament games as there are today and we didn’t make the (post-season playoffs). Many of Larry’s points came well beyond the three-point line. In today’s game he probably would have scored another 200 to 300 points, easily.”

Ames was on the sideline when Day scored 43 points against Laconia. “That night he couldn’t miss,” he said. “Larry was just a very good player.

He could handle the ball, rebound and was a scorer.

Teams spent all their time concentrating on him, he never snuck under the radar.”

Day is proud to see a banner recognizing the 1,000-point scorers.

“It’s nice to finally be recognized for the accomplishment,” he said. “I think it’s long overdue. Just to be listed among these greats is quite special.”

DEB RUSSELL PARSONS Russell Parsons is considered one of the best twoway basketball players in New Hampshire history, a true force to be reckoned with during her playing days. Her dominating inside play and scoring led the 1988 Eagles to their first-ever appearance in a girls’ Class I basketball finals, and the next season to their first ever Class I Championship.

Before graduating in 1989 the team’s captain established the all-time scoring record at Kennett with over 1,800 points, while grabbing over 1,000 rebounds. Not surprisingly, she garnished All-State basketball honors in 1987, ‘88, and ’89 and was the school’s first McDonald’s All America nominee.

Russell Parsons went on to the University of New Hampshire on a full basketball scholarship, playing for the Division I team for four years. She captained the Wildcats in 1993, and was named to the North see 1,000 POINTS page 32

Atlantic Conference All-Academic Team for three years, graduating from UNH magna cum laude.

Russell Parsons was elected to the Kennett High School Sports Hall of Fame in 1997.

She is married to her husband Mike and has two children, Sierra, 8, and Aiden, 4. She is currently a firstgrade teacher in SAU 13.

“As far as I’m concerned Deb is top notch,” coach Russell, her dad, said.

“I know every- Deb Russell Parsons is the all-time one says Larry leading scorer and rebounder for Kenplayed without nett boys and girls basketball. the three-pointer, but Deb never ever took a three-pointer. I think the only one we took was by Laura Harriman and she made it at the top of the key in the championship game.

“Obviously I’m partial to my two daughters,” he continued. “The stats will tell you that Deb was a rebounder and a scorer. We didn’t have her do a lot of passing, because we needed her to score or else we weren’t going to win. I remember she went to UNH and made the comment, ‘I’d much rather have an assist than score,’ that’s how much she altered her game there for the benefit of the team. At UNH she always played defensively on the opposing team’s top offensive player. Deb was a leader by example. She’d get hammered and never got the calls. I think that happens to Allie a lot now.”

Russell Parsons scored her 1,000th point in Durham against Oyster River, but it wasn’t by design.

“I was going to take her out so she could score it at home,” coach Russell said, laughing. “We were in a close game and we wanted to win so I ended up keeping her in and she scored 40 points that night and we barely won.”

“I don’t remember how I scored it,” Russell Parsons said. “(Laughing) We were at Oyster River and I needed one point and my dad threatened to break my arm if I scored it there because he wanted me to get it at home, but it was such a close game he had to keep me and I ended up scoring 40.”

Russell Parsons is quick to come up with her favorite KHS basketball moment. “It would have to be the championship,” she said smiling.

“I don’t have a memory like that,” Erin Russell, her sister, said, laughing. “I can’t compete with that.”

JEFF PERRY Perry lettered all four years in basketball and football, and was an All-State selection in both sports. Perry is the boys’ all-time leading scorer and rebounder.

He guided Kennett High to its last appearance in the state finals in 1990.

He was actively recruited by legendary Penn State football coach Joe Jeff Perry is the all-time boys leadPaterno, eventu- ing scorer and rebounder for Kennett ally enrolling at basketball.

Penn State on a full football scholarship. While there he participated in the Blockbuster, Fiesta, Citrus and Rose bowls.

Perry was elected to the Kennett High School Sports Hall of Fame in 1998. He continues to be a major influence in the Mount Washington Valley donating his time and efforts to the Conway Recreation Department.

Perry, who has his own construction business, now resides in Conway with his wife Erin and three future Eagles, Natalie, Kyle and Aden.

Perry couldn’t recall how his 1,000th point came about but listed the state championship game against Merrimack Valley as his favorite moment.

“Being down at UNH and seeing everyone from Conway in the stands, it was pretty special,” he said.

“Jeff was kind of the opposite of Larry,” Ames said.

“He played with the three-point line, but only took a couple of threes if that many during his career. Jeff was a pretty good shooter, but we needed him to be our presence inside. He was just a dominant player.

He went up against bigger players and usually came out on top. He was a very good player.”

Ames said Perry’s presence is still felt today in his coaching style. “He’s the factor behind the Eagle offense that we still run,” he said.”It’s the offense we basically put in to specifically get him the ball. It’s pretty amazing to see what Jeff has accomplished. Even when he was being heavily recruited in football and there were schools that wanted him for basketball, it never went to his head. He concentrated on the team aspect and was the ultimate teammate and is still one of the most humble people you’ll meet.”

ERIN RUSSELL Russell was a member of the Eagles’ varsity basketball team from 1990-1994, elected co-captain in her senior year. During this time the Eagles made it to two NHIAA quarter-finals and also made two appearances in the finals.

Erin Russell was presented with the game ball after scoring her 1,000th career point.

Russell was named to the Class I AllState second team from her freshman through junior years and first team AllState her senior year.

She was also named to the New Hampshire Alhambra AllStar team in 1994.

Russell’s 1,000th point was made on Dec. 10, 1993 during a game against Kingswood in Wolfeboro.

“It was late in the game,” she recalled. “I believe Alison (MacDonald) got me the ball down under the

basket and I put it in.”

Her career statistics were 1,275 points, 832 rebounds and 217 blocked shots in 86 games.

After graduating from Kennett she went to the University of Southern Maine and played on two Little East Championships, and in the Division 3 National Tournament. Russell, who was elected to the Kennett Sports Hall of Fame in 2002, currently lives in Madison with her 11-year-old son Devon.

“Erin was kind of overshadowed by her sister,” said coach Russell her dad. “She went through holy hell trying to live up to Deb. Erin wasn’t the focal point of the offense because she had a very strong cast around her. She was always the first kid I would take out and let others play and get the points.

When it came to the big games, Erin was always a big-game player. Deb was big all the time but Erin was a big-game player. I like to say Erin and Deb scored quality points’ it was never about the quantity of points.”

One of Russell’s favorite moments from her playing days came in a game in Wolfeboro.

“It was a very close game,” she said. “I ended up getting the last rebound and we won the game and dad came out and met me at halftime and we

hugged.”

ALI MACDONALD Alison MacDonald currently lives outside Washington, D.C., with her husband David Greenberg and daughter, Abigail, and son, Benjamin. After graduating from Kennett in 1994, she went on to play basketball at Colgate University in Hamilton, N.Y. After Colgate, MacDonald took a position on the teaching faculty and as the athletic director for Stone Lee Burnham School in Greenfield, Mass.

In 2000, MacDonald moved to Washington, DC, where she earned her graduate degree in public administration. She is currently serving as a policy advisor to Sen. Jeanne Shaheen.

MacDonald said she loved growing up in the Mount Washington Valley and learned valuable lessons in the classrooms, on the playing fields, and courts of Kennett High School. She was elected into the Kennett High School Sports Hall of Fame in 2003 and is especially proud to be sharing this honor with her brother, Trevor MacDonald.

“I remember that my 1,000th point came in February 1994 during a game at Kearsarge,” she recalled by e-mail last week. “It was my senior year and I was being recruited to play at some colleges at the time. As it turned out, my future Colgate coach was in the stands watching the game. I started the game knowing that the 1,000th point was in reach — I had to score maybe 15 points, I can’t remember the exact number — but didn’t know how many I had scored until it happened.”

MacDonald loved suiting up for the Eagles.

“I’m not sure I have a single favorite Kennett basketball moment,” she wrote. “Whenever I walk into the old gym, I remember with fondness the hours I spent in drills, scrimmages and with teammates. I have such great memories of the people with whom I had the honor to play, and the support that we felt from those that would come out for our games. I am so thrilled that the Kennett girls have had such great success lately, and hope the tradition continues. “ “Ali’s game developed immeasurably over the years,” coach Russell said. “She really worked at it and became a very good player.”

ABE WROBLESKI Wrobleski was a four-year letterman in basketball, four-year letterman in baseball and three-year letterman in football. He was chosen three times for the All-State football team, and was a member of the New Hampshire Shrine All-Star team in 1995.

Also in ‘95, Wrobleski was the recipient of the prestigious Sam Fuller and Jack Burns Award, and the New Hampshire Class I Baseball Player of the Year.

After graduating from Kennett, Wrobleski attended Plymouth State College where he earned his degree in business management. Today he lives in Center Conway with his wife Nicole and two children, Isabel and Bryson.

Abe Wrobleski was a force to Wrobleski was reckon with when he got the ball in open space. elected to the Kennett High School Hall of Fame last October.

“I coached Abe his first two years at Kennett, and Jack (Loynd) had him the last two,” Ames recalled.

“Abe stepped in as a freshman on the varsity and was immediately a very good scorer. He jumped very well and could get up and down the floor very quickly.”

Wrobleski, who was a human highlight film when he got the ball in the open court, scored his 1,000th point at home against Laconia.

“It was on a jump shot at the top of the foul line,” he said.

His favorite Kennett moment actually came in a defeat against Oyster River. “Probably the best was playing Oyster River in their gym my senior year see next page

THE CONWAY DAILY SUN, Tuesday, February 22, 2011— Page 33

from preceding page

when they beat us 105-50 and Keith Friel played that game. He ended up at Notre Dame and then Virginia and he ended up scoring 55 points on us that night.

He could shoot from anywhere. It was amazing to see someone who could play like that. That was probably the most memorable to lose by 55.”

TREVOR MACDONALD MacDonald currently lives in Indianapolis, Ind.,with his wife Annica and daughter Leah. After graduating from Kennett in 1998, he continued playing basketball at Colby College in Waterville, Maine.

After Colby, he began his career in college athletic administration starting with the Eastern College Athletics Conference as a championships intern.

From there he became marketing assistant in the athletics department at Yale University. In 2005, MacDonald went back to school attending Springfield College where he earned his master’s degree in athletic administration while working in the athletics department.

After graduating, he made his way to Washington University in St. Louis, Mo., where he became marketing director in the athletics department. Today he is currently the director of marketing and operations in the athletics department at Indiana University – Purdue University at Indianapolis.

MacDonald was inducted into the Kennett Sports Hall of Fame in 2006.

By e-mail, MacDonald stated he was sorry he could not be in attendance “for this great honor,” but was proud to be recognized along with his sister Alison.

“I scored my 1000th point in the quarterfinal game verse Goffstown at UNH my senior year,” MacDonald recalled. “I don’t know exactly when I scored it — it was near the end of a close game, so wasn’t really thinking about the milestone but trying to get a win and move on. I believe I made the milestone on a free throw (he did). I do remember that Goffstown had a three-pointer to win and it was halfway through the net when somehow it ‘jumped’ out and we moved on to the semi finals. We ended up losing to Lebanon that year in a tough/physical game and they went on to win it all.”

MacDonald grew up an admitted gym rat with his fellow teammate Chis Smith.

“My favorite KHS basketball moment was all of our tournament games at UNH,” he wrote. “I remember the first time taking the floor there with the gym packed with a rowdy Kennett crowd and feeling goose bumps. Our goal at the beginning of the year was to make it to UNH, and we were lucky enough to do that both my junior and senior years.

I don’t think you get a better feeling than that — besides winning it all, maybe in my next life! We went from winning four (not sure exactly but not many) games my freshman year to winning 20-plus games my junior and senior year. I would not trade my four years playing basketball at Kennett for anything — I appreciate everything it gave me and all the friends I made.”

KRISTEN UMLAH Many consider Umlah to have been the best natural shooter in Eagles history. She was one of the most tenacious basketball players to ever grace the basketball court for Kennett High. Her grit and determination were well documented during her playing days.

Umlah not only played basketball but was also a star in field hockey and softball. She captained all three sports teams her senior year and earned 11 varsity letters during her career as an Eagle. She was a crucial part of the 1999 Class I State Champion softball team.

Umlah attended Suffolk University where she received a bachelor of arts degree in accounting.

She was inducted into the Kennett Sports Hall of Fame in 2007. Today in her spare time she coaches basketball in Rye, and her young son is the team’s bookkeeper.

“I coached Umlah as a freshman,” Russell said smiling. “I saw her the other night and yelled down to her from the bleachers, ‘Umlah, I made you.’

She came up and gave me a hug and she said all I remember is you yelling, ‘Umlah shoot the ball, will you shoot the basketball.’ She was right, she’s got a good memory.”

The Kennett High 1,000 Point Club banner was unveiled Feb. 14.

Umlah scored her 1,000th point against John Stark.

“It came on a pass from Lindsay Mayock at home on the elbow, and it was an ‘and one’ (meaning she was fouled on the play and sank a free throw),” she said. “I still have the ball.”

“Kristen is one of my all-time favorites,” Ames said.

“She’s probably the best pure shooter we’ve had. She and Larry were probably the best at straight shooting. If she was open there was a pretty good chance it was going in.

Kristen wasn’t our primary ball handler but she could handle the ball,” he continued. “Very few of her baskets came from inside. There weren’t a lot of three-pointers either. Eighteen feet out was really her shot and she could make them by the bushel.”

Umlah’s favorite Kennett basketball moment was actually not during her playing days.

“It was last year watching them win the state championship, it was amazing,” she said. “That team just meshed so well together. This team just sees each other so well. The no-look passes and the teamwork. Melissa Frase and Allie work so well together and the girls underneath are so solid.”

Told that Ames considered her his best pure shooter, Umlah laughed. “That’s so funny,” she said. “He’s the best. As much as he’ll shake it off, he really is our coach of the year or coach of the decade, he’s amazing.”

ALLIE WAGNER It is fair to say that Wagner has been the face of girls’ basketball in the Mount Washington Valley for the past six years. Her free-wheeling style has brought a new spirit to the Eagles.

A starter since her freshman year, she is the newest addition to Kennett’s 1,000-point club. Her 1,000th point came as part of a 28-point performance last March at Southern New Hampshire University as the Eagles upended Portsmouth 42-41 in the Class I semi-finals. She and her teammates then went on to bring Kennett its first state championship since 1989, defeating Lebanon for the title.

Wagner has continued her scoring prowess this season, averaging 26 points per game for the Eagles.

She has scored over 1,400 points and counting during her outstanding career.

This fall, Wagner will be attending Merrimack

College on a full basketball scholarship, but still has plenty of basketball left this winter including defending the state championship in the upcoming weeks.

“Allie is probably our best three-point shooter for girls,” Ames said. “She handles the ball great, but she’s also a natural scorer. It’s been fun watching her game evolve from year to year. She was a good player as a freshman, and if she was open she made the shot. Now she creates her own opportunities and looks to create contact for the ‘and one.’ Of all the kids I’ve had she’s really put everything together.

She’s really the only true point guard I’ve coached.

Kennett point guard Allie Wagner with Coach Peter Ames last spring at the winter sports awards.

“She’s been a terrific player for our program both on and off the court,” he continued. “She’s pretty much the real deal, and this year in particular with Melissa (Frase) being out she’s been terrific. The nice thing about all of the people in this club is they’re not out there bragging about their accomplishments.

They don’t have to. Kristen and Allie are both two of the nicest kids you could ask for. It’s a pretty select group — when you think of over 80 years of Kennett and only 10 people scored 1,000 points, it’s pretty special and very tough to do.”

DILBERT

By Holiday Mathis SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21).

There’s no benefit to busying yourself without first making a clear plan. Being productive is about doing one thing at a time and completing each task before you go on to the next one.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21).

You’ll think about all the things you could do instead of what you’re supposed to be doing. Perhaps it’s time to configure your schedule differently to stave off that old ennui.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). The right kind of failure can be as impressive as success. Anyone who is moving forward is going to falter -- that’s part of the growth process. You will be in a forgiving mood.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). As a rule, you like to be as straightforward as possible. That’s why you will be prone to sharing your unfiltered thoughts and stating your intentions outright, even if you don’t think the other person would approve.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You may try to take yourself out of a game, not because you think you’ll lose but because you’ll win. You either don’t want the prize, or you don’t want to hurt the feelings of the other players.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Feb. 22).

You find balance this year and are able to create satisfaction in several areas of your life at once. Before the week is over, you’ll receive a special gift to commemorate your progress. The next six weeks show you in romantic settings, sharing your heart. You’ll make deals and impress your family in May. Capricorn and Gemini people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 1, 24, 11, 40 and 30.

Get Fuzzy

ARIES (March 21-April 19). You haven’t done anything wrong, and yet you still would benefit from a purification process. The residue of normal life can be messy on emotional and spiritual levels. Take deep cleansing breaths.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You will have an enlightening conversation with a person you negotiate and interact with on a daily basis. You will learn that this person is deeper -- and funnier -- than expected.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You help others see the bigger picture in their lives, but sometimes it’s hard to do this for yourself. That’s why it’s so important to step back and do a new activity today. It will help you get perspective.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). You’ll be dealing with the mistakes of others.

It’s easy for you to do this without passing blame, because you have made similar mistakes in the past. You’ll focus on fixing the problem, learning from it and moving on.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Your optimism comes naturally today, and you’ll gravitate toward the upside in every situation. Your example will be followed.

You will give hope to someone who isn’t feeling so hopeful.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You’ll be bargaining for what you want. It is only when you are really willing to lose the deal that you are in a good place to negotiate. Remind yourself how strong you are on your own.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). It could take you much longer than usual to get into the groove of working. You’ll have your head in the clouds, but at least they are white, puffy clouds. The storms know to avoid you.

Today is Tuesday, Feb. 22, the 53rd day of 2011. There are 312 days left in the year.

Today’s Highlight in History: On Feb. 22, 1732 (New Style date), the first president of the United States, George Washington, was born in Westmoreland County in the Virginia Colony.

On this date: In 1784, a U.S. merchant ship, the Empress of China, left New York for the Far East to trade goods with China.

In 1810, according to some sources, Polish composer Frederic Chopin was born.

(Chopin, however, claimed March 1 as his birthday.)

In 1862, Jefferson Davis, already the provisional president of the Confederacy, was inaugurated for a six-year term following his election in Nov. 1861.

In 1909, the Great White Fleet, a naval task force sent on a round-the-world voyage

by President Theodore Roosevelt, returned after more than a year at sea.

In 1924, President Calvin Coolidge delivered the first radio broadcast from the White House as he addressed the country over 42 stations.

In 1940, the 14th Dalai Lama (Tenzin Gyatso) was enthroned at age four in Lhasa, Tibet.

In 1973, the United States and China agreed to establish liaison offices.

In 1980, the “Miracle on Ice” took place in Lake Placid, N.Y., as the United States Olympic hockey team upset the Soviets, 4-3. (The U.S. team went on to win the gold medal.)

In 1984, 12-year-old David Vetter, who’d spent most of his life in a plastic bubble because he had no immunity to disease, died 15 days after being removed from the bubble for a bone-marrow transplant.

One year ago: Najibullah Zazi (nah-jeeBOO’-lah ZAH’-zee), accused of buying beauty supplies to make bombs for an attack on New York City subways, pleaded guilty to conspiring to use weapons of mass destruction, conspiring to commit murder in a foreign country and providing material support for a terrorist organization.

O most beautiful flower of Mount Carmel, fruitful vine, splendor of Heaven, Blessed Mother of the Son of God. Im maculate Virgin, assist me in my necessity. O Star of the Sea, help me and show me here you are my mother. O Holy Mary, Mother of God, Queen of Heaven and Earth, I humbly beseech you from the bottom of my heart to succor me in my necessity (make request). There are none that can withstand your power. O Mary conceived without sin pray for us who have recourse to thee (3 times). Holy Mary, I place this cause in your hands (3 times). Say this prayer for 3 consecutive days and then you must publish and it will be granted to you.

HOMELESS FAMILY FACES HARD CHOICE FOR SAKE OF CHILDREN

DEAR ABBY: I need advice from someone who doesn’t know me personally. My husband and I have been married four years and have three lovely kids. Recently we have hit hard times. A few months ago my husband lost his job, and from there we hit rock bottom. Right now we are sleeping in our car. My problem is I don’t like having my kids live like this. It makes me mad and I feel like a bad parent. I could go to a women’s shelter, but I don’t want to break up my family.

I’m scared, and I’m not sure what to do.

My husband is working now, but we don’t have enough money to get an apartment, so I was considering staying in a hotel -- but it will take some time before we can do that. Do you think we should stay at the shelter until we have a place, or until we can get a hotel room? I need some serious advice.

-- SCARED IN LUBBOCK, TEXAS DEAR SCARED: I’m glad you asked. You should check out the shelter and see what kind of accommodations they can make for you and your small children. It’s a better, safer

environment for them than five people sleeping in a car. I know this is a painful decision, but it isn’t “breaking up the family.” It is only temporary until you and your husband have saved enough for accommodations together again.

DEAR ABBY: My boyfriend is new to Facebook and insists on posting something daily. The problem is he can’t spell, and it’s quite embarrassing. I’ve told him he should reread his posts before he sends them, but he doesn’t. How should I handle this? -- CAN YOU SAY SPELL CHECK? DEAR SPELL CHECK: Your boyfriend’s problem isn’t that he can’t spell. It’s that he’s too lazy to use spell check. Much as you might like to “handle this” for him, you can’t. Some people must learn their lessons the hard way, and until he embarrasses himself badly enough to proofread his postings, he’ll continue not checking his spelling.

Warning: Do not step in and become his editor or it could become a full-time job.

Dear Abby is written by Abigail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips.
