Inmates help states ﬁll budget gaps

JAY, Fla. (NY Times) — Before he went to jail, Danny Ivey had barely seen a backyard garden. But here he was, two years left on his sentence for grand theft, bent over in a field, snapping wide, green collard leaves from their stems. For the rest of the week, Mr. Ivey and his fellow inmates would be eating the greens he picked, and the State of Florida would be saving most of the $2.29 a day it allots for their meals. Prison labor — making license plates, picking up litter — is nothing new, and nearly all states have such programs. But these days, offi cials are expanding the practice to combat cuts in federal fi nancing and dwindling tax revenue, using prisoners to paint vehicles, clean courthouses, sweep campsites and perform many other services done before the recession by private contractors or government employees. In New Jersey, inmates on roadkill patrol clean deer carcasses from highways. Georgia inmates tend graveyards. In Ohio, they paint their own cells. In California, prison officials hope to expand programs, including one in which wet-suit-clad inmates repair leaky public water tanks. There are no fi gures on how many prisoners have been enrolled in new or expanded programs nationwide, but experts in criminal justice have taken note of the increase.

Yemen’s leader orders police to protect protesters (NY Times) — After an escalation in violence between supporters and opponents of the Yemeni government in Sana, the capital, this week, President Ali Abdullah Saleh has instructed security forces to protect demonstrators and thwart clashes between the two sides. “The directive demanded security services to offer full protection for the demonstrators. Furthermore, the government calls on protesters to remain vigilant and take all precautionary steps

to prevent the inﬁ ltrations of individuals seeking to carry out violent actions,” Mr. Saleh said in a statement late Wednesday. “The Government of the Republic of Yemen will continue to protect the rights of its citizens to assemble peacefully and their right to freedom of expression.” On Tuesday night, two anti-government protesters were shot dead by government supporters during a sit-in in front of Sana University. At least 10 others were injured by gunﬁre.

Qaddaﬁ strikes back as rebels close in on Libyan capital BENGHAZI, Libya (NY Times) — Thousands of mercenary and other forces struck back at a tightening circle of rebellions around the capital, Tripoli, on Thursday, trying to fend off an uprising against the 40-year rule of Col. Muammar el-Qaddaﬁ , who blamed the revolt on “hallucinogenic”

drugs and Osama bin Laden. Weapons seized from the military and handed over from civilians were collected at the Internal Security Building near the High Court by civilians and soldiers in Benghazi, Libya. The bloodiest ﬁ ghting centered on Zawiya, a gateway

city to the capital, just 30 miles west of Tripoli. Early Thursday, Colonel Qaddafi ’s forces arrived and unleashed an assault using automatic weapons and an anti-aircraft gun on a mosque occupied by rebels armed with hunting rifles, Libyans who had fl ed the country said.

KENNEDY SPACE CENTER, Fla. (NY Times) — W ith seconds to spare after a last-minute glitch, the repaired shuttle Discovery, grounded since November because of vexing fuel tank cracks, rocketed into orbit Thursday on its 39th and final fl ight, setting off for the International Space Station to deliver supplies, equipment and a fi nal American storage module. The countdown proceeded smoothly into its fi nal hour, but trouble with an Air Force tracking system computer threw the outcome into doubt. With the countdown holding at the fi ve-minute mark, the Air Force reported a successful repair. The countdown resumed and Discovery blasted off at 4:53:25 p.m. Eastern time — two seconds before the end of the day’s launching window. Wheeling about and arcing away to the northeast through a clear blue sky, Discovery put on a spectacular afternoon show for area residents and tourists, who crowded nearby roads and beaches to witness the shuttle’s final climb to space.

Family brings new baby Mayor in Aruba, but home, meets a burglar board sets up a meeting THE UNION LEADER

MANCHESTER — A family bringing their newborn baby home from the hospital on Wednesday surprised a burglar, who bolted and was later arrested, police said. The burglary was foiled around 3:25 p.m., when John Stevens brought mom and baby to their home at 308 Highland St. “She placed the newborn in the kitchen, she hears this guy coming around the corner, all of a sudden she’s confronted by this guy,” said Lt. Jim Flanagan. “Pretty creepy.” The burglar bolted, taking with him a box full of the family’s property. Police tracked the man with the help of police dog Nero, who stopped at 611 Amherst St. Ofﬁcers saw a taxi nearby, and dispatchers contacted Queen City Cab, who said a fare wanted a ride from 611 Amherst St.

Flanagan said police pulled over the cab, and a man matching the description of the burglar was found inside, along with a cardboard box believed to contain booty from the Stevens home. After the Stevens identifi ed the man from a photo lineup, police took Shawn Stayrook, 27, of 735 Amherst St. into custody. He was charged with burglary, felony possession of stolen property, criminal trespass and resisting detention. He was also put on a 72-hour hold for probation violations. In 2005, Stayrook was charged with 36 burglaries of Manchester businesses, according to New Hampshire Union Leader archives. They included Cynthia’s Classic Cuts, Cullity Insurance, the Strange Brew Tavern, Piccola Italia Ristorante, Waterford Design Group, Wee Play School, Scientifi c Systems, Intelligent Banking Systems, McLean Communications and the Public Defenders Office.

Hoped for more visible backing of scholars To the editor: Once again the Big Heart of the local Mason Lodge’s members turned out to support of an important town organization. As always, they worked hard and they contributed their time while other people and organizations provided the wide array of food supplies for this breakfast. From fresh fruit to corned beef harsh, eggs-toorder and coffee, juices, etc. was offered to all contributors. I was disappointed to witness the somewhat weak showing by our our town’s school-connected families and ofﬁ cials. I later discovered that the dollar contributions donated on this Sunday morning were one third less than the average for all previous and similarly worthy causes. What was particularly surprising to me was that, apparently, the school board’s only elected ofﬁ cial to show up as their visual support of our scholastic athletes was Mr. Davidson. I hope that I am wrong on this point. While the Teacher’s union and the board repeatedly shout that they are here for our students and to improve their educational opportunities, I question this seeming disconnect between their speeches, the rhetoric, and this reality. Where was the

PTA’s active support for this inspiring group of hardworking academes that raise our student’s over-all SAT scores? I am hoping that my surface observation is completely inaccurate. I do hope that the teacher’s union and the PTA circulated motivational and inﬂ uential ﬂ yers, like they do just before every school budget approval. I am hoping that they loudly trumpeted the importance of our Kennett student’s striving for college excellence down through the halls of the high school; and in vivo, that they demonstrated the energy that the union exercises when they want taxpayer money to pay for it all. It may be nice if they have shown the kind of support for their academic athletes that they wish to have from this town’s voters for their contracts. And, let us not forget their hope for area taxpayer support for this community’s important athletic clubs. Altruism may be too much to expect, yet reciprocal altruism should be something that all teachers, and others, embrace. It fully describes community. I suppose I had hoped for more visible backing for this scholar support breakfast. I may be just an idealist and still hopeful in these woods. Rick Paquette North Conway

Report from Concord

Karen Umberger

In Committee The House has been busy over the last six weeks hearing numerous bills in committees. All bills brought before the Legislature must have a committee hearing. Each representative who has introduced a bill must go before the committee hearing the bill and testify as to why the committee should vote ought to pass out of committee. Often there are both representatives and the public who do not agree with your bill and they testify as well. For bills that you have agreed to cosponsor, often you go to testify in favor of the bill. I was a cosponsor on several Senate bills and so it was important that I went to the Senate committee meetings and at least signed in. Each committee has a blue sheet that can be signed which indicates you either support the bill or oppose the bill but you have chosen not to testify. For example on Jan. 25, 161 different House bills were being heard in the various committees. We have had four formal session days, where we actually voted on bills, Jan. 26, Feb. 9 and Feb. 15 and 16. The Feb. 2 session was cancelled due to a snow storm. The bills on the calendar for Feb. 2 were voted on Feb. 9. On Feb. 9 the House Ways and Means Committee brought House Resolution 11, affirming revenue estimates for fi scal years 2011, 2012 and 2013 to the fl oor for a vote. The resolution also identifi ed a maximum state budget of $4.421 billion dollars for the general fund and education trust fund for fi scal years 2012 and 2013. The resolution also included eight tax and fee reductions. The reductions included repeal of fee increase for vital records, reduce marriage license fee from $50 to $45 and repeal of the 10 percent tax on state gambling winnings. The $4.421 billion dollar budget matches the amount of revenue the various agencies stated as expected income. The result is in order to balance the budget expenditures must match revenues. If revenues come in higher than the estimates the extra revenue will be used to reduce taxes and fees or will go into the rainy day fund. On Feb. 16, the House Ways and Means Committee introduced two bills to reduce taxes. The fi rst was HB 37, reestablishing the initial monthly gross charge exemption to the communications services tax. This exempts the fi rst $12 of the monthly gross charge for residential customer telephone. Although not a signifi cant amount of money it does help to reduce the cost of your telephone bill. The first action on this bill was a motion to table. This would not have allowed the bill to come before the House for a vote. This motion was defeated 265 to 97. We then voted on the bill and it passed 277 to 82. A motion was then made to table the bill. I realize this sounds a little strange, but the Chairman of the Ways and Means Committee wanted to have a House position on this tax prior to the budget bill going over to the Senate for their review and action. A member rose to challenge the ruling of the speaker on his ability to table a motion prior to the third reading. I must point out that all bills have a total of three readings before the Legislature. Following the third reading and bills voted ought to pass go to the Senate for their action. There was lots of activity at the Speaker’s platform reviewing Mason’s Manual and House Rules. The Speaker reviewed these with the assistance of legal

council and the House Clerk and determined the motion to table was legal. We then voted on the challenge to the Speaker’s ruling. The vote was 274 in favor and 89 opposed. We then turned to HB 166, reducing the rate of meals and rooms tax from 9 percent to 8 percent. This bill passed 285 in favor and 78 opposed. A motion was then made to table the bill and it passed 254 in favor and 109 opposed. HB 84, establishing a statutory commission on motor vehicle recycling issues came out of committee with a recommendation of ought to pass on a 10 to 7 vote. Normally, a committee’s recommendation results in the bill passing as the committee recommended. However HB 84 did not pass. The committee’s recommendation of ought to pass was defeated 121 in favor and 237 opposed. When ever a committee’s recommendation fails a motion is then made to support the minority’s position. In this case it was inexpedient to legislate. This passed 260 in favor and 101 opposed. HB 88 relative to liquor enforcement and liquor licensing. A bill had been introduced in 2010 to change this function from the N.H. Liquor Commission to the N.H. Department of Safety effective July 1, 2012. The original bill was sent to a study committee and the study committee recommended that liquor enforcement stay with the liquor commission. This bill was put in to stop the transfer of liquor enforcement to the department of safety. This bill was on the consent calendar. The consent calendar contains bills that generally have a unanimous vote out of committee. The committee must vote to put a bill on the consent calendar. As Legislators we identify consent calendar bills as they are printed on blue paper. Bills on the regular calendar are printed on white paper. All bills on the consent calendar are approved on a voice vote. Any legislator has the right to remove a bill from the consent calendar and that frequently occurs. On Feb. 15 three bills were removed from the consent calendar. The legislator who removes the bill will try to convince the House to change the position of the committee. Most of the time this action fails to change the committee’s recommendation. HB 109, relative to residential ﬁre sprinklers was also on the consent calendar and the chairman of the committee made a motion to recommit the bill to committee. She indicated she had further information that may be pertinent to the decision of the committee. Normally, when a committee chairman requests that a bill be recommitted to committee the House agrees as it did in this case. On Feb. 15 the governor came before a joint session of the House and Senate to deliver his budget address. I will put together some information on his budget and provide it to you shortly. As always you can e-mail me at karenu@ncia.net or call at 356-6881. I have been spending a lot of time in Concord as a member of the House Finance Committee, but I do try to get back to everyone.

I want my town to be thoughtful, to plan and conserve

One of the few remaining means of direct democracy

To the editor: On March 8 and 9, the town of Tamworth will be voting on whether to abolish the planning board and conservation commission. I am usually in favor of limiting the role of government in people’s lives, particularly on the federal level. In fact, if I could snap my ﬁngers and painlessly orchestrate a “do over” for the United States, I would. I’d rather we consisted of several small and independent republics, without the corporately sponsored federal pit bull that no longer comes when it is called. But that is not the case in Tamworth. Members of the planning board and conservation commission are citizen volunteers, trying to make their town a better place to live. Are there really people in Tamworth who truly believe we should no longer plan, no longer conserve? For those who might feel their interests are not represented by

To the editor: There was a time, not too long ago, when “The New Hampshire Way” was more about local control and citizen participation in government than it was about tax revenues or unfunded mandates or philosophical platitudes or other stuff. Small towns no longer have “their own” representative in Concord and the state has taken over regional issues and that’s all probably constitutionally-required and for the best. The towns’ right to vote on their own ordinances and elect citizens to planning boards to ensure that the ordinances are observed seems to be among the last, best ways to have local control and direct democracy. There are some who are not satisﬁed with the current members of the planning board. At least one-third of those members are elected each year — an entirely new majority can be elected in any two-year cycle. There are some who feel that the current board should resign so that new members could be appointed by a commission. But the current members were elected by the voters. Will the proposed commission be smarter than the voters somehow? Aren’t the voters supposed to be trusted in a democracy? There are some who think that “there’s not much going on anyway” and a few years without the planning board or conservation commission wouldn’t matter much. And it probably wouldn’t for those who have large land holdings or big investments. But most folks in America, and New Hampshire, and Tamworth don’t have either — “home” is the biggest investment of our lives. Having a planning board and conservation commission and subdivision regulations are the best ways to maintain our property values. If now is the time to reﬁnance to start a business or send the kids to college or to move to assisted living or to relocate, there’s more than a little “going on,” and property values matter right now. Some have suggested that the current planning board members are not knowledgeable in some important areas. New Hampshire has far fewer professional politicians than other states — small towns work because many citizens take their turns on boards, commissions, and committees. We don’t have to be experts, but we have to be willing to listen, learn as much as we can, accept the people who come to the board on good faith, act on unbiased information, and be fair and respectful. The whole system is based on direct, participatory democracy. That’s the way local government was set up in the beginning, and some of New Hampshire hasn’t gotten too big (yet) to lose that. The local ordinances are there because the voters chose to have them. Maybe some ordinances are too strict or not strict enough, but they can be changed only by the voters. The planning board is supposed to make sure that development happens within

either of those two bodies, remember that the beauty of the ebb and ﬂ ow of small town governing is based more on who will step forward to do the hard and often thankless work for virtually nothing. So take your turn in the batter’s box if you don’t like how the game is going. But please don’t give us a toddler-type tantrum to a bowl of steamed broccoli placed on the highchair. The shortsighted response is to toss the broccoli and abolish the kitchen, then plow under the garden. Now what? I want my town to be thoughtful, to plan, to conserve the goodness we still have, and to build community in spite of our differences so we all might feel grateful to call Tamworth home. At the very least, I want my town to give a little thought to eating its broccoli. Bob Streeter Tamworth

Width is enough to preclude change in road designation To the editor: This is a continuation of my response to Ray O’Brien’s Feb. 9 letter demanding that the town accommodate the Veilleux’s by removing the “summer road” designation from a part of the unimproved southernmost section of Lead Mine Road in Madison. This time my focus will be on whether road’s characteristics will allow such a change. In a nutshell, town plowing of this road is not feasible now for the same reason it has not been feasible throughout its long existence. The road’s right-of-way is less than 30 feet wide between its sideline boundaries, and this is not sufficient for a two-way traffic lane plus room for snowbanks. Snow from a town road may not be pushed onto private property. The origin of this road was in the early 1800s, at which time it was a dead-end town road branching off from the Old Coach Road to Effi ngham, which today is known as the all-season part of Lead Mine Road continuing as Black Brook Road southward to Freedom. As shown on the 1861 map of Madison, this branch road served only a single residence at the end of it, beside Cook’s Pond. The owner at that time was Nathaniel W. Gray. Mr. Gray’s road was later extended by mining interests to today’s East Shore Drive, but this did not happen until sometime between 1892 and 1902. The 1892 map of Madison still shows it as a dead-end road, but the 1902 map of Madison shows it extending to East Shore Drive. While research shows that there is no deed to this road and no layout of record, therefore no original record of its width, the width can be inferred from ancient monumentation. It so happens that there is an ancient and quite well built stone wall running for 370 feet along one side of the road near its easterly end. The measurement from the centerline of this wall to the center of the road is 14 feet 4 inches, implying a width of the rightof-way of 28 feet 8 inches. The tall ledge outcropping on the opposite side of the road shows that the roadbed has always been confi ned to this narrow space. The January 2008 survey map

of the Goodwin Trust subdivision around Cooks Pond depicts this stone wall as being a property boundary wall, and shows how tightly the wall confines the road’s right-of-way. This map’s depiction of the road is consistent with the road’s sideline boundaries being 30 feet apart or less. The earthen and ledge embankments that closely fl ank both sides of this road in many places have definite implications for its historic width. They show clearly that it has never been confi gured for municipal winter plowing, as these closely fl anking embankments would defeat the sideways thrust of conventional plowing after significant snow accumulation. NHDOT’s record of this road is based on data from the 1970s. It shows that the travel surface of this road was at that time only six feet wide. What’s important about this state record is that the road has no history of ever being used at a wider width, meaning that its original boundaries were not widened over the years through a prescriptive process. All of this documentation about the width of this road is available for viewing at the selectmen’s offi ce. Needless to say, it stands squarely in the way of any change in the summer road designation. The cost implications of making this road suitable for municipal maintenance in winter are astronomical. Costs would include widening the right-of-way by eminent domain, removal of many large trees on conservation land, huge amounts of blasting and excavation, and large amounts of gravel fill. Since this road is a designated scenic road per RSA 231:157-158, hearings must be held by the planning board before any trees may be cut to widen it or improve plowing conditions. Given that this entire road is lined with conservation land, it is highly unlikely that the planning board or the public would favor such a drastic alteration to such a rustic road traversing such a pristine area. The width issue alone is enough to preclude a removal of the summer road designation from this road, but I’m not done. Robert D. King Madison

the requirements of those ordinances. Sometimes, the ordinances would prohibit some development, but have a way for the landowner to get a waiver, special use permit, variance, etc. The planning board is supposed to make those decisions. The planning board has issued waivers and special use permits that enabled the landowner to develop their property, change boundary lines, merge lots, install septic systems, etc. based on the spirit of the ordinance or regulation where the letter of the ordinance would prohibit the landowners right to use or develop the property. In recent history there are two times when that didn’t happen. One was a subdivision proposal that was not considered because the title had not been transferred, and the planning board can’t (and shouldn’t) agree to changes without the owner’s approval. The other was a proposal under the wetlands conservation ordinance. The wetlands ordinance is there because the voters wanted it. The planning board is duty-bound to observe it and to follow impartial findings in applying it. If some have a problem with the ordinances, perhaps they’d want to propose changes for the voters to consider. But the planning board shouldn’t second-guess the voters’ decisions or assume they know better than the voters. The planning board has worked hard to listen to, and accept, public input. The earth excavation regulation was adopted after three public hearings over five nights, working with the owner/operators to modify the model ordinance to something that will work for them and the town. The groundwater protection ordinance also had three public hearings, and the process allowed for, and incorporated numerous public comments to modify the state model ordinance. It’s how the process is supposed to work, and we think we were pretty responsive. Not that anyone’s counting, but we had more hearings and more participation than the other towns considering similar ordinances. The planning board (and the conservation commission, board of selectmen, etc.) is one of the few remaining means of direct democracy, and uniquely possible in rural towns in New England. Citizen participation, direct town vote on ordinances and changes to them, frequent elections, local control. I think that’s the New Hampshire Way, and the way America was supposed to be, and that we should keep it.

I had straightforward, honest approach as selectman To the editor: My name is Josh Shackford and I am running for the position of selectman in the town of Madison. For those who don’t know me, I was born in the valley and locally raised in Madison and the surrounding area of Freedom, where I am the Chief of Police. I previously served on the Madison Board of Selectmen for a three-year tenure (2005-2008). During this time I believe that I consistently demonstrated a no-nonsense, straightforward, logical and honest approach when dealing with all aspects of town-related matters. At the end of that term I reluctantly did not run for re-election due to personal time constraints that would adversely impact the commitment that is required in the position of selectman. Now, with my house built and my

career fully established, I feel I am again able to offer the same high level of dedication this position requires and deserves. For those people who know me, you will agree that I am not one to stand on my soap-box and wax lyrical about my wonderful attributes. However, I deﬁ nitely possess the qualities that are needed to listen to and do right by the people. I would be happy to speak to you about any issues or concerns you might have and look forward to meeting many of you at candidates night on March 1, and Election Day on March 8. I respectfully ask for your vote on March 8 in my endeavor to represent the residents of thetown of Madison and if elected, I will once again give you the high level of commitment and service you deserve.

Marvel should use his time to volunteer in schools To the editor: This is in response to William Marvel’s column in Tuesday’s paper (Feb. 22) where he states (regarding the objections to his school-related columns) “With one exception, all of those complaints have come from people whose households are supported partly or entirely by one or more school district paychecks or pensions.” For the record, I am a Conway taxpayer and I vehemently object to this man’s ranting regarding the schools and his misuse of the power of the pen — and I nor anyone else in my family is employed by the school, now or in the past. It is unfortunate that Mr. Marvel

spends such a great deal of his time ripping the schools to shreds, when he could use the space in his weekly column to educate the readers in his true ﬁ eld of expertise which is history, speciﬁcally the Civil War (I believe). One wonders if he is just bored with too much time on his hands, and uses his column to perpetuate his deep resentment toward the school system because he has nothing better to do. He should use his time to volunteer in the schools and be a part of the solution, rather than be a weekly part of the problem. Julie James Center Conway

candidates night, which is scheduled for March 28 at the KA Brett School. The planning board and conservation commission will answer questions from 5:30 to 6:45 p.m. The candidates' night begins at 7 p.m. In January, each board held a public hearing on the petitions to get rid of the boards. At the time, board members didn't respond to residents' comments so that they could receive the maximum amount of input. Voters will decide the fate of the planning board at the polls on March 8. Residents will debate abolishing the conservation commission at town meeting on March 9 at 7 p.m. at the KA Brett School. Critics say the boards prevent businesses from moving into town, and that kills job growth and keeps the property tax rate among the highest in the county. They also say the planning board has been attempting to force residents to accept zoning. Much of the anger seems to stem from the planning board's refusal to grant Club Motorsports Inc. (CMI) a wetlands permit. CMI is building a drivingthemed road course among other things near Mount Whittier. Both petitions have much support, according Ernie Mills the man who ﬁ led them. Mills estimates that both boards have cost taxpayers a $1 million per year in legal fees, lost tax revenue and gas money because of lack of jobs and places to shop nearby. "I had no problem getting 130 signatures for both," said Mills. "I only had one person refuse me. Nationally people are fed up with government." But conservation commission chair Ned Beecher and planning board Chairman Dom Bergen say those critics don't come to their meetings. The movement to abolish the conservation commission caught Beecher by surprise. "It came out of left ﬁeld," said Beecher. Planning board and conservation commission members are unpaid volunteers who live in town. Those supporting the petitions say selectmen will take on the roles of both boards should the petitions pass. But the chairmen say the selectmen have enough on their plate already -- especially since the budget committee was disbanded a few years ago. One criticism the conservation commission has received is that it gobbles up otherwise taxable land. Beecher explained that one of the commission's roles is to help property owners put conservation easements on their land. An example of land in a conservation easement is the property surrounding the Community School. Since the 1990s there have

only been a two conservation easements put into place. One was for 130 acres of land and the other was 19 acres. "It's always been at the request of the private landowner doing what they want with their land," said Beecher."It hasn't happened all that often." A conservation easement is a purchase of development rights or the granting of development rights. Sometimes people donate land and no money changes hands. The land itself remains in private hands but is taxed at a lower rate. The easements are permanent. However, Mills says there's very little developable land left in town when one discounts land that's already developed, wetlands and steep slopes. Lowering the taxes on conservation land shifts the burden onto other people. The commission has seven members who are appointed by selectmen. Currently, there is one vacancy and two members up for reappointment (Beecher is one of them). Much their job is to review wetlands permit applications. Other duties include maintaining town trails and the ﬁre tower on Great Hill. State law makes it illegal to build in wetlands without a permit. Those laws are there to protect water quality and wildlife habitat. The conservation commission's role is to provide local input on those permit applications. The commission is strictly advisory and cannot approve or deny wetlands applications. "If the conservation commission went away there would be nobody here locally with any knowledge to help local land owners deal with state regulations," said Beecher. For instance, the conservation commission helped AT&T pass an application for a cell tower. The commission suggested AT&T modify their plans for an access road to avoid disturbing wetlands. Everything worked out well for AT&T and the environment, said Beecher. Mills alleges it's illegal for the town to have an ordinance that just applies to cell towers. According to Mills, the town should have created a general zoning ordinance that includes a section on cell towers. Mills accused the town of doing "selective zoning." But Bergen said the planning board couldn't possibly get away with anything illegal because most applicants come with professional consultants and/ or lawyers. The role of the planning board is to interpret landsee TAMWORTH page 10

use regulations. Those include regulations covering subdivisions, cell phone towers, and wetlands. Planning board members are elected. "The planning board is a place where local people can come to work within the regulations, all of which have been adopted by the town," said Bergen clarifying the board does have to abide by state laws like the right-to-know law. "If they don't like the regulations they can work to change the regulations. We'll modify them." Some of the people who advocate for abolishment actually ran for planning board in the past, but

failed to get elected, said Bergen. Every year there are two planning board seats available. The process of changing an ordinance is tried and true. But no one knows for sure how the town would function without the board and commission, said Bergen and Beecher. "It's putting the town into chaos," said Beecher. As for CMI, Beecher said any commission members who made public statements against CMI recused themselves from the table. The same is true of the planning board, said the chairmen. Bergen recuses himself from CMI discussions but Beecher does not. The planning board has not stopped CMI from

building, Beecher and Bergen confi rmed. Rather it has just prevented CMI from doing the parts of the project that impact wetlands.The case has been in and out of court for the last few years. CMI started construction in July. The planning board rejected CMI's application for a wetland permit in December. CMI has already brought its case back to court. The court battles could have been avoided if CMI had taken the conservation commission's advice early on, said Beecher. But Mills said the planning board and conservation commission threw bureaucratic roadblocks on CMI. He noted CMI's plans were good enough for the Army Core of Engineers and the state of New Hampshire. Bergen also refuted the idea that the planning board is killing economic growth. He said one survey shows there are roughly 300 small businesses in town. Beecher added factors hurting the job market in Tamworth have more to do what's going on globally and nationally. The poor economy is hurting people all over the country, they said. But Mills said one of those small businesses in that survey is his Dixieland band, which occasionally performs for money. Mills, who is now retired, worked in management at Montgomery Ward. At the time Montgomery Ward was the third largest merchandiser in the world. Part of his job entailed selecting where new stores should go. Mills says his professional experience tells him that Tamworth isn't business friendly. Mills also accused the planning board of pushing zoning when residents voted it down several times in the past by wide margins As for accusations about zoning, Bergen said any town that has a planning board must also have a master plan. The planning board did a survey asking about zoning, and most respondents wanted it. Now, zoning is something the master plan dictates. But Mills said the planning board filled the survey with loaded questions as if it was doing a push poll. Many people were disgusted with the survey and tossed it out. Bergen said none of the town votes against zoning were overwhelming. The zoning ordinance that the planning board had proposed this year would have been much different than those proposed in the past. However, planning board members decided not to bring the town wide zoning ordinance to vote this year because they were dissatisfi ed with the document. They will try again next year. One aspect of the proposed zoning ordinance that took a lot of criticism was the section on light pollution. Residents said the wording made it appear as if the planning board wanted to ban porch lights. But Bergen said that wasn't the board's intention at all. What the planning board wanted was to craft an ordinance that would prevent people from creating so much light pollution that it bothers the person next door. The planning board is proposing a groundwaterprotection ordinance for similar reasons. Tamworth and several surrounding towns sit on a huge underground water supply that is particularly sensitive to pollution. "Businesses should be allowed to come into town and do things as they wish without infringing on the rights of their neighbors," said Bergen. "If residents find something offensive, there's no vehicle to stop it. You can tell your neighbor to stop doing that but they can tell you to suck an egg. You have no recourse."

CORRECTIONS Due to a font formatting error, in a story on commercial development in the Feb. 19 edition of The Conway Daily Sun, a sentence that should have appeared with three bullets as a paragraph break instead read as “&bull.” Scott Lees of Willow Common also responded, saying the commercial development story should have said that his complex of stores on Route 16 is “fully booked” and that he “has a waiting list” of prospective tenants. Also, in a related story in the same edition, “A look at the valley from south to north,” the name of the White Mountain Cupcakery (733-5310) in North Conway Village was incorrectly listed.

CONWAY â&#x20AC;&#x201D; The chair of the Conway Police Commission defended department equipment purchases Thursday, but he was not prepared to discuss year-end spending in detail. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I have never seen them spend a penny without asking the commission first,â&#x20AC;? commission chair David Doherty Sr. said. He was unfamiliar with the instances of yearend spending The Conway Daily Sun found from 2008 and 2009, he said, but he would look into it. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t really answer you on some of these,â&#x20AC;? he said. Some of the items purchased by police with leftover funds at the end of 2008 and 2009 were Pelican flashlights; Crest ultrasonic gun-cleaning machine; two iForce bicycles; a Samsung DVD/VCR recorder; and a Nikon D300 digital camera. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t understand the camera thing,â&#x20AC;? Doherty said, but any spending would have been cleared by the commission. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They go out of their way to keep us informed.â&#x20AC;?

Another seat for one year will open up in April when current chairman David Sordi plans to step down. There are three three-year seats on the school board opening up: Janine McLauchlan and Rick Breton are the incumbents while Alana Starkey was appointed last summer to ďŹ ll out the remainder of Kelley Murphy's term on the board. Breton and Starkey both signed up on Wednesday. "With the way the economy is we've got to try to preserve the educational programs we have in our schools and try to be as ďŹ scally responsible as we

Commissioner Theresa Kennett also said she needed more time before she could speak about department spending in the final days of year. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I have no knowledge of getting to the end of the year and spending all we have,â&#x20AC;? she said Wednesday. Doherty and Kennett are the two sitting commissioners who were on the police commission in 2008 and 2009, when the department spent thousands on equipment in the ďŹ nal days of the year. Police officials defended the purchases and pointed out that they didn't overspend their budget. "The police department runs in a fashion that we are given a certain amount of money and we stay within those guidelines," chief Ed Wagner said Wednesday. Lt. Chris Perley said, "It's my position if we don't spend it on something wasteful then the money is there. We don't buy things we don't need." can," Breton said by phone Thursday. "I'd like to preserve the quality of education that we offer. I believe we are putting out a good quality education for the children. We've got to try hard to keep the budget at a minimum and still pull a quality education out of it." Other school positions available include: one-year terms for moderator (Burnell is the incumbent), treasurer (Ted Sares is the incumbent and has ďŹ led for another term) and clerk (Rhoda Quint is the incumbent). Voting for ofďŹ ces takes place on April 12 at the Conway Community Building in Center Conway from 8 a.m. to 7 p.m.

Education coalition forms its first board of directors CONWAY — The Mount Washington Valley Coalition for Education Excellence, a group of business leaders, professionals, parents and educators focused on establishing competitive goals and benchmarks for SAU 9 students, has formed its fi rst executive committee. The coalition, which was created in late December, announced its slate of officers for 2011 on Tuesday. The coalition is the brainchild of Dr. Angus Badger, formerly of the Jackson School Board, and Paul Mayer, owner of Black Bear Realty. They identifi ed the mission of the coalition as “to promote educational excellence in the Mount Washington Valley such that all students’ educational needs are fulfilled and they have access to the most competitive post-secondary school opportunities.” It is also to “promote a reputation for educational excellence as a critical element of our community’s economic viability, specifi cally as it impacts business development and retention, sustained property values, and social diversity.” The board of directors will be led by Badger and Mayer, who will serve as co-chairs. Board members are David Jensen, owner of Lupine Pets; Professor Ed Fayle, an English teacher at Kennett High School; and John Macdonald, of Investors Capital. The executive committee will be rounded out with chairs of the three working committees: Paul Kirsch, director of marketing for the Echo Group, will chair Marketing and Membership. Betty Loynd will chair the “Get Out The Vote” committee; and Macdonald will chair of the Data and Benchmark committee. “Our fi rst goal was to change the debate on education here in the valley, to one that uses good data and best practices to see what we could do to

better prepare all our students for the challenges they will face after graduation,” said Mayer. “I like to say that the coalition is not about raising taxes, it is about raising expectations for the young. “I think we have had a positive inﬂ uence on the debate already and that there are things the community could do today to improve our outcomes without increasing taxes in the valley,” he continued. Asked about the recent Conway Budget Committee session cutting the education budget by $3.6 million, Mayer was disappointed in that move. “I don’t think there was enough positive discussion or any proposed solutions associated with that vote,” he said. “It represents cutting, for cutting’s sake, and does nothing to meet our duty to educate our children. I think the unintended effect will be that we will see the default budget supported by the community. The community was clearly asking for better outcomes in SAT scores and other academic areas that SAU 9 was focusing on; now we are told to gut the programs and go back to what? I think one solution to the current problem is to have the budget committee involved with the budgeting process from the very beginning, and not waiting till the 11th hour to share their input.” Mayer and Badger view the coalition as “a valley-wide forum to discuss and promote public education,” and said, “The coalition’s mission has resonated among parents, educators, and business leaders in the valley.” For more information contact the coalition at excel@ Black-Bear-Realty. com or (603) 387-7737. Also, updates, meetings and other events are posted at www.FaceBook.com/education.excellence

Hypnotist at performing Arts Center March 4 FRYEBURG, Maine — Dan Candell, master hypnotist and mind reader claims, “I can read your thoughts, then hypnotize you in seconds.” Candell is appearing at Fryeburg Academy’s Leura Hill Eastman Performing Arts Center in Fryeburg, Maine Friday, March 4, at 7:30 p.m. to hypnotize and read the minds of any volunteer brave enough to participate. “I’m excited to bring our show, Hypnosis Gone Wild’, to Fryeburg Academy,” Candell said. “During the show we will have fun and lots of laughs and I will work with anyone that would like to experience this special altered state of consciousness. Proceeds of the show will go to benefit Fryeburg Academy graduating class of 2013.” Candell’s abilities have been put to the test all over the United States. He combines the fun of total audience participation with the incredible abilities of the mind. “Hypnotizing individuals during the show is a process that begins with the volunteers approval. Nobody can ever be hypnotized against their will.” For more information call the box office at (207) 935-9232 or e-mail boxoffice@fryeburgacademy.org.

Saco Valley Anglers present Tin Mountain with a $3,000 check to support two-year Brook Trout Restoration project At a recent meeting of the local chapter of Trout Unlimited, the Saco Valley Anglers presented Tin Mountain with a $3,000 check from Trout Unlimited Embrace-A-Stream to support a two-year Brook Trout Restoration project enhancing the brook trout population in the Saco river sub-watersheds through habitat restoration practices. The local Trout Unlimited Chapter volunteered their time this past summer for a Tin Mountain Conservation Center Trout Research Project. Tin Mountain presented Trout Unlimited members with preliminary results of their current efforts and research. In New Hampshire, the intensive

and extensive timber harvesting of the 19th century resulted in massive areas of deforestation, sediment runoff, and spring log drives that scoured streams and littered streambeds with bark. The habitat degradation caused the loss of many brook trout populations. Although the land has been reforested during the past 100 years, more recent suburban development, habitat fragmentation, dams, airborne pollutants, and road construction have further stressed brook trout in New Hampshire. In the summer of 2010, seven streams were selected to study the effects of large woody debris (LWD) additions on native brook trout habi-

tat. Tin Mountain’s project manager Dick Fortin and intern Chris Bottom spent the spring and summer completing permitting requirements, selecting candidate streams for study, and measuring each stream for everything from temperature, pH, and dissolved oxygen to stream bed substrate, existing LWD, and number/size and density of ﬁsh species in each stream. This project was made possible by generous support from Tin Mountain Conservation members, Trout Unlimited Embrace-A-Stream grant, the Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS), Davis Conservation Fund, and Norcross Wildlife Foundation.

some discussion that Annette Benning could win for “The Kids Are Alright” simply because she hasn't won an Oscar yet, but that would be a huge upset. This is Natalie's year. Colin Firth is a lock for best actor as King George VI in “The King's Speech.” Firth has been a reliable actor for decades now, primarily used in romance or romantic comedies, but in 2009 he was allowed to go deeper in “A Single Man.” Now he gives another nuanced performance. He was nominated for a “A Single Man.” He will win for “The King's Speech.” Helena Bonham Carter is a near sure thing for best supporting actress. If there is a wild card category this year, it is this one, but Carter is an actress who hasn't won and who has been consistent in both period and modern roles. Her work in “The King's Speech” is her most warm and human in years. Geoffrey Rush is absolutely superb in “The King's Speech” and in any other year the statue would go to him for best supporting actor, but Christian Bale will win for his extraordinary performance as a junkie in “The Fighter.” Physically he transformed himself, but what is more remarkable is that he doesn't play into cliche. This is a subtle performance with real shading. Of the 10 fi lms nominated for best picture, the general consensus is that the race is between “The Social Network” and “The King's Speech.” As of now, the debate seems to be leaning more toward “The King's Speech,” but I'm going to go against the grain and say “The Social Network.” It is a fi lm that is a reflection of this moment in time, and 10 years from now it will be a timecapsule film. Beyond that it is a highly entertaining film that manages to find a way to turn the seemingly mundane creation of Facebook into something approximating a thriller. If it doesn't win picture, the academy may compensate by giving David Fincher best director and best adapted screenplay to Aaron Sorkin. But if Tom Hooper wins for best director, put all your money on “The King's Speech” to win.

Fifth annual Kennett High School drumline show opens March 4 CONWAY — Ride the rails with the Kennett High School Drumline. The ﬁfth annual Kennett High School drumline show features stops by a “Crazy Train.” Audiences will explore percussion expressions inspired by locations around the world and universe — both real and imagined. The show will be performed on Friday, March 4, Saturday, March 5, and Saturday, March

12, at 7 p.m. in the Kennett High School Loynd Auditorium. Tickets (known as MetroCards) are $10 for adults and $5 for students. Proﬁ ts from the show will beneﬁ t the Bryson Herlihy Cancer Fund. “The majority of the money collected will go to the Herlihy family. A portion of the proceeds will be used to start up next year’s show,” said director

Therese Davison. “The Kennett High School music program has received support from many community, charitable organizations over the years, and we’d like to give back this time around.” The cast is the largest in Kennett Drumline Show history. Over 24 drummers are involved in this year’s production. The show’s theme was inspired by junior, drum captain Justin Gamache’s

observation of a creative, double entendre “The Drum Line” when thinking of the Green, Red, and Blue Lines of Boston’s metro system. Students have combined technical drumming and musical knowledge in this original, collaborative project. Get tickets in advance by calling the Kennett High School Music Department at 356-4360 or at the door.

The Oscar goes to ... this week’s weather! BY TOM EASTMAN THE CONWAY DAILY SUN

CONWAY — We don't know if this week's weather will win any Oscars for “Best Supporting” role in terms of helping out the local economy, but it's been a bluebird of a week for this February vacation week out on the slopes and touring trails, with a snow storm forecast for Friday, setting us up for a great weekend. Word from local restaurants and lodging is that it's been a busy one off the slopes as well. “We are booked solid for the week,” said Red Jacket assistant general manager Chuck Randall when we spoke last week, prior to the start of the busy vacation week. He attributed much of that to the resort's investment in its Kahuna Laguna indoor water park. “We have been very fortunate.” A spokesman afﬁ rmed this Thursday that it had been a very strong week at the Jacket, and that while not fully booked things still looked strong for next week, when many of New Hampshire's schools hold their vacation weeks. “Compared to Christmas Week, it has been quieter in terms of the phones ringing here at the chamber, but maybe people are just making their bookings on their own, because as I drive up and down the strip, I see a lot of No Vacancy signs,” saidSarah Verney, visitors services coordinator at the Mount Washington Valley Chamber of Commerce Thursday. We dropped by Horsefeathers to take a peak Wednesday night, and the place was very deﬁnitely hopping. Similar reports were provided by the Red Parka Steakhouse and Pub's Judy Campbell and a hostess for Delaney's Hole-in-the-Wall, to name a few.

Ski short and stay tall With plenty of snow to play in, staying in an athletic stance while you’re tearing up the course and the pow’ can make the difference between struggle and greatness. You hear confl icting barks from coaches and instructors: “ski tall” and “fl ex those ankles.” Which is it? Well, it’s both. Figure this out and you’ll have more fun every ski day. If you picture a professional hockey player, they stay flexed in the ankles-enabling themselves to stay balanced over the length of each foot as they work powerfully from above the knees up to their rib cages. In your own ski stance, do you stay flexed through your ankles…maintaining cuff contact with your shins while balancing over the whole sole of each foot? All the time? When you sink down into your boots with your ankles, you get shorter. Stay short. Don’t straighten your ankles and

lose the cuff contact. At the same time, you want to be athletically tall through your middle. Don’t bend over at the waist, taking yourself out of balance. Flex down into your boots, and then lightly jump from foot to foot…be as tall as possible without losing the cuff contact and the “whole sole” balance. That’s the feeling you want to take into your skiing. Now you’re ready-stay ﬂ exy in the boots, and tall through your hips and middle. Short and tall is the way to go. Remember, the best advice of all — take a lesson or attend a race clinic. You’ll have a great time and improve your time. Try it.

Get schooled on vacation in parks Start small. That's the advice coming from those who oversee local terrain parks. "I know the biggest jump in the park looks awesome but it's not the place to start if you've never hit a jump, Josh Harrington, Shawnee Peak director of skiing, said. "Start with simple tricks — straight slides and airs — on small features. Most mountains, including Shawnee Peak, have a mini terrain park that is designed for folks to learn tricks. Everyone should start here." With one vacation week wrapping up and another about to begin, it's time for both old-schoolers and new-schoolers to, well, get schooled about terrain parks. The playgrounds of snowboarders and freeriding skiers, the slopestyle terrain contains boxes, jumps, rails and other features designed to challenge both gravity and the people using them. From kids to parents, a ride through a terrain park from Crawford to Pinkham Notch and beyond is a must-do for many while on holiday. In 2004, the National Ski Areas Association unveiled a safety and education program called Smart Style. The idea is to get terrain park users to start small and work up. There are four basic concepts: Make a plan, look before you leap, easy style it and respect gets respect. Many ski areas post that information on their web sites, and it can also be seen at the entrance to many parks sporting orange oval signs. Other websites like www. nsaa.org/nsaa/safety/smart-style/ and www.terrainparksafety.org are

Skiing –––––

Marty Basch also helpful. Jess Richitelli oversees Cranmore's terrain parks including the Darkside. She says skiers and riders should be aware of their surroundings, shouldn't stand on top of jumps and clear landings as soon as possible. "If they are hitting jumps try to ride with a spotter and please do not jump off the sides of the rail/box take offs," she said. She advises users to familiarize themselves with the features and their proper use. She also encourages more experienced users to education those who are new. "They can share their knowledge of parks and try to encourage those who are inexperienced to use the parks properly and observe Smart Style rather than get aggravated and be short with them." she said. "The experienced park riders need to remember they were beginners at one time too, so patience is the key." King Pine Ski and Snowboard School guru Craig Niiler has some Smart Style add-ons too. "In addition, watch others for a while if you are new to it, try to understand how the park ﬂ ows, where to stand and where not to," he said. "Many ski schools do offer coaching for park users and can teach you park skills." At King Pine's Twisited Pine Terrain Park visitors may ﬁ nd park staffers spending time maintaining the features and talking to users about safety.

"The park is constantly changing, new and revised features come and go weekly and sometimes daily, he said. "Safetly is always most important, read all signs, check things out, and have a blast." Bretton Woods Freestyle Terrain Manger Brad Shedd also encourages planning for the parks like Wild West and Coos Caper under his watch. "The most important part of entering into a terrain park is to make sure that you are familiar with everything in the park, whether you are going to use a certain feature or not," he said. "Stop at the entrance and read all signage. Know what type of park you are entering, and always follow by the Smart Style code, the freestyle code of terrain parks." Shedd says experienced terrain park users should share their knowledge with inexperienced riders and skiers at the resort's four terrain parks. "Whether you're an old park ripper or a steep and deep shredder, there are always tips and tricks that can be handed down," he said. "What one person may be doing, the other person may not be thinking about. Sharing knowledge is the best way to grow the sport and the individual." Be sure you're in the park because it's where you want to be. "Do it for you, not because your friends told you to," Harrington said. "Terrain parks give you the ability to put your own style on skiing or riding. I think it's the freedom of expression in the parks that keeps me coming back day after day."

Chocorua Public Library winter celebration Feb. 26 The annual Valentine’s luncheon hosted by Bearcamp Valley School and Children’s Center to honor its partnership with Lakes Region United Way took place last Friday. Lauren Souza, co-owner of The Lazy Dog Inn, and Myles Grinstead, owner of The Village Potter in Chocorua, who is also Chocorua Library’s assistant librarian, cooked and served a delicious meal of spaghetti and meatballs. Jack Terrell, president of Lakes Region United Way said a few words and was later presented with the proceeds from donations for the luncheon. A beautiful Valentine's basket of Avon products, put together by Bearcamp teacher and Avon Representative Gina Lund was raffl ed. At least 10 local non profi t representatives were present, including Karen Sulewski, director of the Remick Museum and Farm, who generously donated cookies made in the Remick kitchen for dessert. The children had made colorful decorations for the tables and ate with the guests. This was a memorable occasion and I would like to thank everyone who supported this worthy cause in any way.

so many in the room to hear what the candidates had to say and that many seats up for election have two or more people running for them can be reported as good news. Mr. Randy Burbank spoke at this week’s selectmen’s meeting about a pending instigation of a complete inventory, maintenance and testing schedule for all items and equipment under the care of the Effi ngham Fire and Rescue Department. In anticipation of assuming the position of chief of the Effi ngham Fire and Rescue Department Mr. B. is currently establishing an in depth review and preparing for the adoption of new SOP’s (standard operating procedures) related to the operation of this municipal department. In further discussion the need for more residents to apply for inclusion on the department was discussed. Mr. Burbank stated that anyone interested in serving on the Effingham Fire and Rescue Department can get an application at the selectmen’s office during normal business hours. Any well run volunteer fi re and rescue department has numerous positions to fi ll; not all of which require a high degree of risk but all of which do require a willingness to help your friends and neighbors in times of need. Consider fi lling out an application: you never know what you may be able to contribute.

S All

The candidate’s forum held last Saturday found around 30 people gathered to hear various candidate speak about both why they are running and, if for a contested seat, why they would be the best candidate for the job. In full disclosure it must be reported that your reporter is running for a seat on the selectmen’s board along with Ms. Theresa Swanick and Mr. Joseph Sherin, which makes it hard for me, your reporter, to prove objectivity. It can be objectively reported that the Selectmen’s’ portion of the forum was lively with both direct questions and strong feeling being expressed by those in the audience. Mr. William Piekut and Daniel Sinapius, both running for a seat on the planning board were on hand to state their qualiﬁ cations and answer questions. It is unfortunate that for most other seats on municipal boards the candidates were un-able to attend. Letters or speeches outlining the various positions, opinions and plans of the absent candidates were read by associates or the moderator. Many thank to town clerk Marilyn Maughan for providing citizens with this opportunity to learn about the candidates. There were also some really killer brownies and good strong coffee on hand. It should be reported that in past years the meet the candidates forum has seen a distressingly low turnout. This may well have been based on the fact that vacant board seats had no one running for them. So ﬁ nding

show — wow! The ﬁ lm crew for the Oprah show was here a week ago to document the Martin family. Dayna Martin, mom to four children ages 3-11, is the author of "Radical Unschooling: A Revolution Has Begun" and Dayna and her husband Joey, homeschool their youngsters. The Martins were ﬁ lmed at the Mount Washington Valley Children's Museum for part of the show as it is a place where where the kids go to play and learn. The crew arrived early and Shelly Morin, executive director of the museum seemed to enjoy this as much as the kids. Some of the fun things about the museum are the rocking horse, calendar tree, gravity well, tree house and a display about gears. It isn't known

as yet when the show will air but the Martins will also ﬂ y to Chicago for further ﬁlming. It was tragic to learn that 42 year old Massachusetts National Guard Maj. Mark Fitzgerald, of Seabrook, died Saturday in a V.A. hospital in Massachusetts. Maj. Fitzgerald was featured on Channel 9 in December when he surprised his young daughter, Samantha, during her school concert in Hampton when he returned home from Afghanistan. Pease keep his family and all of our veterans and active military in thought and prayer. It has been bitterly cold at night with temps dropping well below zero. Take care with your pets and be sure they have warm and safe places to stay.

DAILY CROSSWORD TRIBUNE MEDIA SERVICES

by Lynn Johnston by Scott Adams

DILBERT

By Holiday Mathis SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Second chances abound, and so do third and fourth chances. Tests can be retaken, mail can be resent, relationships can get a new start. Knowing this, ease up on yourself. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). People trying to sell you something will lead you to believe that there is not very much of it left in the world. This is probably untrue. Relax and take the long view of things. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Your sign mate Isaac Newton noted that objects in motion tend to stay in motion, and objects at rest tend to stay at rest. You’ll tune into the nature of those around you and adjust your expectations accordingly. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Find a way to get sunshine and fun into your life, even if you have to look at pictures of the beach to accomplish this. The sun’s rays will dissolve your inner barriers to feeling fantastic and living the life you really want to live. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Presume that your ailment has an easy remedy. With that mindset, you will quickly discover the solution, and otherwise, you’ll spend too much of your time and energy in “search” mode. TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Feb. 25). You have intense energy and vitality and will focus them well this year. You’ll beneﬁt from advanced training of some kind in March. Your skillful management of funds will bring a higher degree of freedom to you and yours. In May, you will deepen your relationships through improved communication. You have a fan in Sagittarius and Aquarius people. Your lucky numbers are: 24, 3, 22, 39 and 16.

by Darby Conley

ARIES (March 21-April 19). You’ll be nudged into new territory. You can get grounded by affirming that you are still the same you. In all matters you take on, get your own approval first, and then it won’t be so hard to get anyone else’s. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Imagined limitations are to blame for many problems. Get some help with accomplishing a difficult task, and you’ll find out that it’s not so hard, after all. An expert will demystify the process. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Taking on too grave a tone could hinder your ability to attract certain people and keep their attention. Luckily, you have a talent for levity and fun, and you’ll need it in today’s interactions. CANCER (June 22-July 22). There is no need to be self-conscious and overly concerned about what others think. It’s very likely that what you believe is a shortcoming is all in your mind. Forget about it, and everyone else will, too. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Drop the unimportant stuff so that you can focus on what means the most to you. There’s plenty of work to do if you want it, though leisure well spent is even more important to your thriving life right now. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Having a strong opinion can sometimes increase your power, though right now so many of your thoughts and emotions on a topic are unresolved. Stay openminded. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You may be building up an event to be much bigger than it should be in your mind. This is not an end-all-be-all situation. There will always be another opportunity. Try hard, but don’t take yourself too seriously.

THE CONWAY DAILY SUN, Friday, February 25, 2011— Page 29

Today is Friday, Feb. 25, the 56th day of 2011. There are 309 days left in the year. Today’s Highlight in History: On Feb. 25, 1913, the 16th Amendment to the Constitution, giving Congress the power to levy and collect income taxes, was declared in effect by Secretary of State Philander Chase Knox. On this date: In 1836, inventor Samuel Colt patented his revolver. In 1901, United States Steel Corp. was incorporated by J.P. Morgan. In 1919, Oregon became the first state to tax gasoline, at one cent per gallon.

Help Wanted

by Abigail Van Buren

PREGNANT TEEN NEEDS WORRIED FRIEND’S SUPPORT, NOT A LECTURE

DEAR ABBY: I’m concerned about my friend “Nyla.” She’s 15 and pregnant. Nyla and her family are happy about it! As her friend, I’m not. I think she should have waited. I keep telling her that her life is ruined and she’ll regret having a baby this early, but she doesn’t listen. It would be better if she had help, but she doesn’t. Nyla’s family is poor. Now she is angry with me because of what I keep telling her. What can I do to help her understand me, and not get mad when I tell her something? -- VIRGINIA TEEN DEAR VIRGINIA TEEN: If you want Nyla to “understand” you, quit lecturing her because it’s only making her defensive. Defensive people don’t listen. How any family, rich or poor, could be “happy” about the pregnancy of an unwed 15-year-old is beyond me. But your friend IS pregnant and she’s keeping the baby. So be a real friend and encourage her to ﬁ nish high school so she can prepare herself for a job that will enable her to support her little one. If she completes her education, the chances are better that her child will, too. But if she doesn’t, the reverse is also true, and the repercussions will go on for another generation. DEAR ABBY: I need help. When we started dating, my (now) husband told me he didn’t care about past relationships because “the past is the past and it’s over.” Now he has begun grilling me about every boyfriend I’ve ever had, demanding details about every aspect of the relationships, physical, emotional -- whatever.

He makes snide remarks and asks if I would like him to track them down and if I’d like to sleep with them again. At first, I thought he was joking, but it has escalated to text messages and threats of divorce if I don’t tell him everything he wants to know. I have been sick to my stomach the last few days, and I think this fi ts the defi nition of emotional abuse. I don’t know whether to suggest counseling or just tell him to go. He was wonderful when we fi rst got together, but now he says marrying me was just a ruse to get sex. What can I do? I miss the person he used to be. He has always seemed concerned that I would eventually cheat on him, although I have given him no reason to think so and have assured him repeatedly that I want only him. Why is this happening? -- SICK TO MY STOMACH IN OHIO DEAR SICK TO YOUR STOMACH: It’s because you didn’t really know the man you married. The way he presented himself was, in his words, “all a ruse” to convince you to marry him “to get sex.” He appears to have increasing anxiety about how he measures up to your past lovers. Harassing you for details and threatening to contact them is, frankly, sick behavior. He needs counseling, and unless he seeks it immediately you should get out of there. If you stay, the emotional abuse could escalate to physical abuse. To ensure your safety, contact the National Domestic Violence Hotline (800) 799-7233 and discuss this with a trained counselor.

MWV Lacrosse Club now has open registration for its spring youth season The MWV lacrosse club’s youth program has expanded in the past year to include not only a regular spring season play, put also two off-season opportunities. Thirty-six players took part in the club’s “Fall Ball” program that ran September through October. MWV lax currently is running a “Winter Ball” program Saturday evenings in Cranmore ﬁ tness center. There has been an exceptional interest in this pre-season warm-up play with 60 players enrolled, including a very strong showing from Kennett Eagles players. Now, the regular spring season is rapidly approaching. The spring season includes statewide competition through the New Hampshire Youth Lacrosse Association. Once again the club will ﬁeld U9, U11, U13 and U15 teams. After having a great season last year, the club is expecting some very exciting and fast paced games this year. Successes last spring led to the MWV teams being advanced to higher divisions for this coming season.

Registration for the spring season is now open for returning and new players. Interested players and families should visit the clubs website at www. mwvlax.com. Registration is through the website. Ages include older 1st grade (born on or before Dec. 3, 2003) through eighth grade. At this time, the U15 team is nearly ﬁ lled but spaces remain for the younger teams. The fee for spring season play is $55 and all players additionally need a US Lacrosse membership ($25) for insurance purposes. Equipment is available for loan to new and some returning players. Uniform handout is scheduled for March 18th with practices beginning around that time (indoors). NHYLA season opening games are scheduled for April 10th. There will not be on-site registrations at the uniform handout/parent meeting this year. Please email ross.emery@mwvlax.com or andrew. andreani@ mwvlax.com with any questions.
