Letters about Davison show pattern of 'rude and disrespectul' behavior at sporting events 22 pages of letters and e-mails released, per judge’s order

BY ERIK EISELE THE CONWAY DAILY SUN

CONWAY — The school district last week released the 22 pages of letters and e-mails collected over five years about school board member Randy Davison’s behavior at sports games.

The documents, many of which are stamped “confidential,” took nearly four months and a judge’s order to get from the school. Most pages have numerous words or sections blocked out with either black

marker and whiteout — redaction done both by the judge and the school.

Despite the omissions, however, it’s clear see DAVISON page 8

Stem cells used to create human eggs (NY Times) — Researchers at Massachusetts General Hospital say they have extracted stem cells from human ovaries and made them generate egg cells.

The advance, if confirmed, might provide a new source of eggs for treating infertility, though scientists say it is far too early to tell if the work holds such promise.

Women are born with a complement of egg cells that must last throughout life. The ability to isolate stem cells from which eggs could be cultivated would help not only with fertility but also with biologists’ understanding of how drugs and nutrition affect the egg cells. The new research, by a team led by the biologist Jonathan L. Tilly, depends on a special protein found to mark the surface of reproductive cells like eggs and sperm. Using a cell-sorting machine that can separate out the marked cells, the team obtained reproductive cells from mouse ovaries and showed that the cells would generate viable egg cells that could be fertilized and produce embryos.

They then applied the same method to human ovaries donated by women at the Saitama Medical Center in Japan who were undergoing sex reassignment because of a gender identity disorder.

Plot to kill Putin uncovered

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

MOSCOW (NY Times) — Russian television reported on Monday that the Ukrainian and Russian intelligence services had worked together over many weeks to thwart an assassination attempt on the Russian prime minister, Vladimir V. Putin.

The announcement came less than a week before the Russian presidential election on Sunday, raising questions about the timing of its release, in part because two

suspects were arrested weeks ago. Putin, the dominant figure in Russian politics, is widely expected to return to the presidency, which he held for two terms before becoming prime minister in 2008.

The report by the government-controlled broadcaster, Channel One, said that the two suspects were arrested in the Ukrainian city of Odessa, after surviving an explosion inside an apartment there on Jan. 4. A third man died in the

blast, which occurred while the suspects were mixing chemicals for an explosive device, according to the report. The authorities said the three men had been dispatched to the city by the Chechen terrorist leader Doku Umarov, Channel One reported.One of the suspects, Ilya Pyanzin, was arrested immediately after the explosion, according to the report, and the second suspect, Adam Osmayev, was arrested a month later, on Feb. 4.

Syrians said to approve new charter BEIRUT, Lebanon (NY Times) — As violence continued to rage in Syria on Monday, the country’s Interior Ministry announced that voters had approved a new Constitution by a margin of almost 9-to-1 in a referendum on Sunday that Western leaders labeled a farce.

In a bulletin across the bottom of the screen on state television, the ministry said 89 percent of the voters, or nearly 7.5 million of the 8.4 million people who cast ballots, had voted in favor of the Constitution — an offer of reform that critics dismissed as too little, too late.

More than 750,000 no votes were cast, or

about 9 percent of the total, the ministry said, while nearly 133,000 ballots, or 1.6 percent, were rejected as spoiled. The turnout exceeded 57 percent of the more than 14 million eligible voters, according to the ministry.

After a morning of new shelling in the beleaguered city of Homs and elsewhere on Monday, some Western leaders disparaged the referendum as having no credibility. Some of them spoke even before the result was announced.

“The referendum vote has fooled nobody,” the British foreign secretary, William Hague, said in Brussels on Monday.

Inquiry leader says Murdoch papers paid off British officials

LONDON (NY Times) — The officer leading a police investigation into Rupert Murdoch’s British newspapers said on Monday that reporters and editors at The Sun tabloid had over the years paid hundreds of thousands of dollars for information not only to police officers but also to a “network of corrupted officials” in the military and the government.

The officer, Deputy Assistant Commissioner Sue Akers, said that e-mail records obtained by the police showed that there was a “culture at The Sun of illegal payments” that were authorized “at a very senior level within the newspaper” and involved “frequent and sometimes significant sums of money” paid to public officials in the Health Ministry and the prison service, among other agencies.

The testimony was a sharp new turn in a months-long judicial investigation of the behavior of Murdoch-owned and other newspapers, known as the Leveson inquiry.

Rising gas prices dooming N.H.’s fullservice gas stations

BY KATHY REMILLARD THE UNION LEADER

Along with milk delivery, phone booths and eight-track cassettes, fullservice gas stations may soon be considered a thing of the past.

Direct Gas, Goffstown's last fullserve gas station, closed Wednesday, leaving no other options in town for customers who don't pump their own gas. Its owner, John Sylvain, said rising gas prices made it impossible for him to remain in business.

There are about 865 gas stations in the state and the majority of those are selfserve, according to Bill Boynton, public information officer for New Hampshire's Department of Transportation.

Steve Mario, owner of the Goffstown Mobil on North Mast Road, said he's been trying to come up with a solution for Direct Gas customers who may make their way to his station. The Goffstown Mobil was a full-service station up until about three years ago, when Mario said it simply began to cost too much.

“I wish we could've stayed fullserve, but pricing wouldn't allow us to,” Mario said, adding he couldn't afford to keep someone at the station to pump gas on a full-time basis.

According to Mario, the profit margin for selling gas has shrunk considerably in recent years. With every credit card swipe costing his station from 2 to 6 percent of a total sale, Mario said there isn't much room for a profit.

“It can be up to eight cents a gallon, depending on the card,” Mario said.

State law doesn't allow stations to charge a higher price for credit sales, Mario said, and if he increases his gas prices to cover the credit charges, customers will look elsewhere for gas.

“People complain about gas prices,

but I see in the backs of their cars they have a case of Dasani water,” Mario said. “They'll pay $12 for a gallon of water in little plastic bottles, but they complain about gas?”

Services that Mario used to provide for customers include windshield washing, checking under the hood and checking tire pressure if necessary. He continued those services for a small fee when the station went to self-service.

“In '06 and '07, when things were good, people didn't mind paying for stuff,” Mario said. “Now, people don't have the extra cash.”

Mario said he has focused on his repair business to make up for what he doesn't make selling gas.

The same is true for Ralph's Service Center in Milford.

“It's hard to make money on gas if you're a small guy,” said owner Ralph Porter. “Full-serves are a dying breed.”

Tony Clark, an attendant at Ralph's, said what customers seem to enjoy is the personal touch that a full-serve station provides.

“Some people like to get out and talk and socialize,” Clark said, “and our air is still free,” he said with a smile.

Lorrie Knoll of Wilton was getting gas at Ralph's Thursday, and said she doesn't mind paying a little more for full-serve.

“For two pennies less, I could pump it myself, but it's worth the two pennies,” she said.

Clarence McLaughlin said he has been a customer of Ralph's for more than 40 years, because of the people.

“This is the only place I come to,” he said, and added that he likes to stop and chat while he's getting a fill-up.

“It's too bad,” Mario said. “Where else can you go where the owner of the station will pump your gas?”

Understanding the Enneagram classes begin tonight with showing of video

CONWAY — The Enneagram of Personality is a tool for self understanding that utilizes the wisdom of the ancient Enneagram symbol, together with the latest in psychodynamic psychology, to describe the fundamental behavioral characteristics of human beings. Knowledge of this system can lead you to a deeper understanding of yourself and others, and can provide guidance that will facilitate your own personal growth and help you experience a more fulfilling life. At 6:30 p.m. tonight (Tuesday, Feb. 28), a video titled Discover Yourself with the Enneagram will be shown at the Conway Public Library. Attendance is free.

This DVD provides an excellent introduction to the Enneagram’s power for personal growth. It includes an explanation of the Enneagram symbol

itself, a brief history of the Enneagram, how to discover your personality type, an explanation of the Enneagram’s three centers, an overview of the nine personality types, a detailed look at each type, and advice on how to proceed once you have begun your journey of self-discovery.

The more you delve into this ancient, mysterious system of self-understanding, the more you will discover deeper levels of truth and self-actualization that come with searching the secrets of the soul. This video is an excellent place to begin your journey. For those who are interested, three follow-up classes will be offered to explain and explore the Enneagram in much greater depth.

This is an opportunity to begin opening up possibilities in your life that will be life-affirming and liberating. For more information call 447-5401.

Would like to serve again as selectman To the residents of Freedom: My name is John Krebs, and I am one of three candidates for Freedom Selectman. The election for this office will take place on Tuesday, March 13, or by absentee ballot if you are unable to vote in-person.

I have lived in Freedom for 18 years, and have served on the zoning board of adjustment, town committees and served 8 1/2 years as a selectman. I love the town of Freedom and would very much enjoy the opportunity to serve again as a selectman.

Before you decide who to cast your vote for, I would like to explain why I think my education and experience prepared me well for the position. I hold a master’s of science degree in community planning and public administration. I have worked both as an employee and a consultant to many communities throughout New Hampshire — I know and understand municipal law, finance and management.

I know both Jim Brown and Neal Boyle — the other two candidates, and respect them both. I am running for the office of selectman, not against either Jim or Neal.

As your selectman of three previous terms, I worked very hard to fight against the unfair statewide property tax resulting from the ‘Claremont Decision’; created the town’s first personnel manual; established pay scales for each employment position; hired the town’s first outside property assessor to ensure that all properties were assessed using uniform standards, worked

with the Friends of Trout Pond to ensure the protection of 2,600 acres for generations to come, and signed the deed on the town’s behalf. I am very proud of my accomplishments as your former selectman. I also served as a ‘fill-in’ Selectmen recently to resolve a matter in which one board member had a conflict of interest and was appointed by the current board. While I’m certain that my opinions aren’t always shared by every resident, I listen to all opinions and always try to remain open to new ideas and suggestions.

I have no agenda for the position other than to work doggedly to maintain Freedom’s character. I will listen to you and try my very best to give everyone the consideration they deserve. I believe in open government and encouraging public participation in the decisionmaking process.

I am the only candidate that is not retired, therefore, I am not as visible around Freedom as much as the other two candidates. While I can’t meet each and every resident over a cup of coffee, it’s not because I don’t want to, but because I am typically at work. I will always make myself available by telephone or email, and would welcome you to contact me if you have any questions, concerns, or issues that you would like to discuss with me, you can reach me via email at jdkrebs67@yahoo. com or telephone at (603) 396-2868.

I hope that you give me the opportunity to serve you again as selectman in 2012.

Report from Concord

Karen Umberger

Unusual Action Needless to say there is never a dull moment in Concord. I learn something new all the time. On Feb. 1 one of the legislators, under unanimous consent, was providing some historical information on one of the many people whose portrait hangs in the capital building, Benjamin Franklin Butler.

A motion was made to enter his comments in the Permanent Journal. The Permanent Journal is a record of all action taken each session and includes leaves of absence, call of the roll, resolutions, introduction of House bills, motion to vacate, petitions, all bills on the consent calendar, all bills on the regular calendar along with any amendments, roll calls, personal privilege, and unanimous consent. It is not unusual for many members to leave the House prior to the personal privilege and unanimous consent portion of the day. On this day a motion was made to place the remarks of the speaker in the Permanent Journal. Normally this is a routine motion that always passes. No so today! The first problem was the lack of a quorum. A quorum according to Article 20 of the N.H. Constitution is a majority of the members. But when less than two thirds of the representatives elected shall be present, the assent of two thirds of those members shall be necessary to render their acts and proceeding valid. The vote on the motion to place the remarks in the Permanent Journal was 119 in favor and 106 opposed. In order for the motion to pass it required 154 votes so the motion failed. A member then went to the well, this is where we speak from, and made a motion to reconsider our vote. The Speaker banged the gavel and declared a quorum was not present and so the day ended. On Feb. 8 we began the day with the Speaker announcing there was a motion on the floor for reconsideration of putting the remarks in the Permanent Journal. When all was said and done the remarks were not entered in the Permanent Journal.

Following this action we began the session of Feb. 8 with a prayer by the House Chaplin.

Another unusual action occurred on Feb. 1 with a bill from the Judiciary Committee. The bill had been discussed on the floor and a vote was taken by roll call and passed with 257 in favor and 87 opposed. A motion was then made to table the bill. The question was asked how can this happen since we just passed the bill. The Speaker indicated no intervening business had occurred and the motion to table was in order. A motion to table is non-debatable so the vote occurred with 91 in favor of tabling and 257 opposed, so the motion failed.

HB 593 relative to video lottery and table gaming was on the calendar on Jan. 11 to be voted on. The chairman of Ways and Means requested the bill be special ordered to Feb. 8 because there was more work to be accomplished on the bill. A special order request can be made on any bill. In this case the chairman asked that it be delayed for voting until Feb. 8. On Feb. 8 the chairman of Ways and Means asked that the bill be recommitted to the committee so they could hold a public hearing on several amendments that had been made to the bill. So it is now back in committee with the hearing scheduled for Monday, Feb. 13. The bill should be back on the regular calendar on Feb. 22, but we will have to wait and see what transpires.

On Jan. 31 the governor gave his State of the State address to the Legislature. I wrote down

26 items that he stressed in his speech. Like all of us he was interested in putting people back to work, increasing job training, recognized that manufacturing was the heartbeat of New Hampshire, maintaining our low tax rate, need for infrastructure improvements specifically widening of I-93. He also stated he would veto an income or sales tax, is opposed to expanded gambling, would veto any changes to the gay marriage law and is not willing to go any further with the right to bear arms. He thanked members of the National Guard for their service and indicated that 58 N.H. servicemen had died in Iraq and Afghanistan, thanked the N.H. Food Bank for their work, the Department of Transportation crews for their extraordinary work after Hurricane Irene and a group of young women who had donated their locks for cancer patients. These were just some of the items he talked about.

HB 445, relative to the regulation of electronic tracking devices came to the floor with the Commerce and Consumer Affairs Committee recommendation of refer for interim study. After a lengthy debate on a roll call vote the committee recommendation was defeated 158 in favor and 183 opposed. Once a bill is defeated a new motion is put on the floor. In this case a motion was made ought to pass. An amendment was introduced which passed on a roll call vote of 293 in favor and 53 opposed.

Following the adoption of the amendment an ought to pass as amended motion was offered and voted on by a voice vote. The bill was then referred by the speaker to the Criminal Justice and Public Safety Committee. The Criminal Justice Committee will hold hearings on the bill and then it will come back to the House floor for another vote.

HB 1138, naming a bridge in Pelham in honor of Sergeant Daniel R. Gionet was special ordered to the beginning of the calendar on Feb. 8. Sergeant Gionet’s mother was in the gallery. The motion of ought to pass as amended received a unanimous vote of the members of the House. A tribute to Sergeant Gionet was presented by a representative from Pelham and a motion was made to place the remarks in the Permanent Journal which passed on a voice vote.

HB 1229, declaring March 30 as Welcome Home Veterans Day to Honor veterans of Vietnam passed on a roll call vote of 322 to 8.

Following the vote a member who had served in Vietnam came to the well and thanked the House for finally recognizing the service of our Vietnam vets.

House Concurrent Resolution, HCR 31, commending the work of the pregnancy care centers in New Hampshire and across the United States ended in a tie vote of 159 to 159. In cases of a tie vote the Speaker votes.

In this case he voted yes so the HCR passed.

A concurrent resolution does not have the effect of a law, but does put the legislature on record as supporting or disavowing some aspect of national or state law. A concurrent resolution can also be used to express appreciation to an individual or group.

Tax Day William Marvel

Every year my wife and I dread what we’ve come to call Tax Day. For us, it isn’t April 15, or the day town taxes are due, although those days can be depressing enough: instead, it’s the day we drag out several pounds of paperwork and sit down to determine how much we owe the federal government.

When I lived alone, I used to do that on the first of February, after all the bank statements and 1099 forms had come in, to get it out of the way. Now we tend to put it off longer. We’re not the procrastinating type — at least one of us isn’t — but the stress of all the forms, rules, and endless decimal calculations turns us both a little crabby, so we’re reluctant to begin a process that might incite the rare squabble.

The scholarship needs of our little math wizard dictate that we finish by the March 1 FAFSA deadline, however, so last week we set aside the better part of a day to struggle with the beast. The Paperwork Reduction Act Notice promised to simplify things, but I didn’t want to waste all that paper printing it out. Both of us have to complete the gamut of self-employment paperwork, with a small mountain of receipts to paw through and tally, and we’ve found that it’s best if we do this in separate rooms, convening only after we have all the figures we need to complete the 1040.

Except for the paperwork, I really don’t mind the federal income tax. The idea of paying a higher tax rate as my income rises seems pretty fair, as taxes go. That concept ought to make most people feel anxious to pay more, for anyone who can get by on 90 percent of a $40,000 salary ought to feel pretty rich keeping 85 percent of $80,000. The insufferably greedy don’t feel that way, so they rig the system with loopholes for the likes of Mitt Romney, but the basic premise is sound.

That’s why I often take a liberal viewpoint on certain aspects of federal spending, like environmental protection, wilderness preservation, federally subsidized public transportation, higher education, support for the arts, and public health care. I do so despite the greater potential for waste and fraud. Throwing public funds away at any level annoys me, and federal money is wasted at a far greater rate than local money because of sheer volume and diluted accountability, but that’s a problem in distribution. In the collection, federal taxes are gen-

The idea of paying a higher tax rate as my income rises seems pretty fair, as taxes go. erally a lot more equitable. Conservatives are right when they complain that a reliance on federal funding simply takes money from a different pocket, but the money from the federal pocket at least theoretically comes from those who can better afford it.

The reverse is usually true for property taxes. Several consecutive years of slow business, or outright unemployment, yield no relief from local property taxes that usually rise every year. Those who experience the gradually declining income of approaching old age suffer a higher tax rate every year, far exceeding the rate paid by younger citizens in their prime earning years — younger citizens whose demands usually create most of that tax burden.

Property taxes also tend to rise at a faster rate than income taxes, perhaps because of a servicehungry, transient population that seldom takes the long view of its temporary communities. In 1978, my father paid taxes equal to seven-tenths of one percent of the freshly reevaluated assessment on the house where I now live, but these days the rate of the annual tax is approaching 2 percent of the assessment. The rate of my federal income tax, meanwhile, is about the same as it always has been.

Those who cut the federal budget are commonly characterized as heartless and selfish, and that’s often a fair representation, unless they’re targeting the Pentagon. Conversely, defenders of federal aid to education, the environment, or human services usually see themselves, accurately, as champions in a good cause. Yet when those same altruistic activists return home and confront their town officials over budgetary restraint, the inequities of the local tax structure frequently reverse the roles of hero and villain. Nowhere is that more true than New Hampshire, where property taxes and other regressive revenues fund most services.

Here, it is the ardent advocate for public expenditure who more often runs the risk of being heartless and selfish, without ever recognizing the metamorphosis.

Tele-Talk

How’s the winter been for you personally and for the valley?

There were 12 responses to this week’s Tele-Talk question: “How’s the winter been for you personally and for the valley?”

It’s been great for me personally all winter long, but for the valley it’s been absolutely terrible. And the problem is too many flatlanders have moved in.

They’ve moved in, raised our taxes and it’s just gotten out of hand. We need to go back about 40 years ago; it would be kind of nice.

Personally, in answer to the Tele-Talk question, I’m just ecstatic that all the business owners and all the ski mountain moguls are faring so well this winter. But coming from a lowly disabled person trying to make ends meet in the valley, I’m part of the two-thirds of us here, that don’t own businesses and don’t ski, that don’t seem to be included in the local news, especially in the winter season, that are doing just fine. God bless the tourists; we couldn’t make it without you. Boo, in Conway.

It was a good winter except for the ice.

Too much ice.

How has the winter been for me? Let’s see. My furnace broke down, I’m pretty close to being without any more heat because I don’t have any more money because my partner has no job because there aren’t any in the valley. I’m eating out at the soup kitchens. I’m living day to day. I’m pretty close to losing my house.

I’m having a wonderful winter. I think you guys really need to open your eyes.

The more you increase these taxes, the more you have to have this or that, you’ve got to realize the people who are paying me are not going to be here much longer because they can’t afford them. Have a wonderful spring because my winter has been wonderful. I’m sure spring is going to be so much better. The only difference is I don’t have to heat anymore but I still do have to eat. Well, while all you people who have everything that you want and need for the school and the hospital and the library and all that, I’m just wondering where the heck you’re planning to put all the homeless people that are now homeless — because it’s winter. None of the hotels want them this weeks because they can fill the rooms and make more.

Just wondering where we’re all supposed to go. Where are all the homeless people supposed to be living? Because I can tell you right now it’s getting pretty tight and there’s going to be a lot more real soon, including myself, my family and my cat. So, while you have all you want in your districts and all your stuff, just think about me and my cat and my family. Have a wonderful life. Mine isn’t wonderful.

For more personally, this winter has been a very, very cold one. Because of not being so lucky in life, I’ve had to ask for fuel assistance and Barry Obama has cut the fuel assistance program 60 percent from last year. So just about now, what we have been given, our fuel is about to run out and I’m speaking for many recipients. I don’t know what we’re going to do in the next week or two when our tanks become empty, but besides that, the high gas prices have forced us to cut out our once a week trip to have lunch at Horsefeathers and visit Zeb’s store. So we have cancelled that.

And also my brother who used to visit

in the winter time, two or three times, bringing his family and they would rent snowmobiles outside of White Lake State Park. This year they have done none of that because of Barry Obama’s fuel policy which wants $10 per gallon gasoline as soon as possible. So, besides that as far as the valley goes, I hear that sock shop in Settlers’ Green is doing a booming business.

We’re one of the top 25 ski towns in the world and we can’t even turn on the lights for our visitors? Something’s wrong with that. And, by the way, business isn’t that good, so the chamber of commerce needs to get people up here and help people out.

Awful! I haven’t enjoyed the thrill and pleasure of using my roof rake once.

This is Ralph in Eaton.

How’s my winter been? Well, Conway Daily Sun, thanks for asking. My winter has been disconsolate, choleric, irascible, dolorous, lugubrious, and a bunch of other words I looked up in a thesaurus.

The following Tele-Talk responses were posted on The Conway Daily Sun’s Facebook page: It’s nice not having the heating oil truck in my driveway every couple of weeks.

It kinda sucks that I moved back from Alabama and have been telling my kids how much snow I had as a kid here and just wait until you get to N.H. They ask, “This is a lot of snow?”

The oil truck has only been here three times since the beginning of October, Snow blower has only been out of the garage three times (I don’t use it for the less than three-inch dustings). It has been a great winter for me, but then I don’t count on the tourists or snowfall for my income. I feel bad for those folks.

This winter though easier on our heating bills but has been really hard on many of those who either financially or recreationally depend on natural snowfall. The lack of snow this season has been very disheartening for many of us who volunteer practically year round to ensure that so many can enjoy and have a safe and quite extensive network of recreational trails to either snowmobile or cross-country ski on. We as well as the many landowners work very hard to keep such a network of trails going yet get very little recognition or support from the multitudes of people who use the trails at any given time of the year.

The main source of funding for any of the work done to create and maintain these trails comes from the registration fees from snowmobilers. That’s it.

No other group contributes to the funding of these trails and only a dwindling number of dedicated volunteers do the necessary work. So when people hold off registering their sleds or deciding not to do it at all due to poor snow conditions, it has a huge impact on what we as volunteers of a local non-profit snowmobile club can do to keep providing what so many have come to expect each and every season. If you enjoy access to the vast network of snowmobile and crosscountry skiing trails, please do what you can to support the landowners and local clubs that make it all possible. Not only during good seasons, but more so in bad ones.

the documents support the unflattering portrayal of Davison’s antics given by former school board members. Some are from parents, while others are from coaches, a referee, other school board members and school employees. Most of the correspondence was directed to Kennett High athletic directors, principals and superintendent Carl Nelson.

Athletic director Kerry Brady declined to comment on the documents. Nelson did not return calls for comment. Several school board members also declined to return calls or comment on the documents. They were all given copies of the redacted paperwork before it was released to the public.

Davison, meanwhile, continued to defend his actions.

“I haven’t broken any laws,” he said. “I haven’t been kicked out of any games.”

The letters, meanwhile, begin in January 2007 when two parents contacted Steve Mello, the athletic director at the time. Their names and many details were redacted, but the essence of the letters is clear.

“Over and over unwarranted, unpleasant angry abusive comments every game,” one parent said in an e-mail with a subject line of “Sideline Slander.” “I believe Mr. Davison should follow the code of conduct [and] keep his mean nasty bullying comments to himself and if he cannot [he] should be banned from the games. Shame on his degrading behavior, representing the community as a school board member, a professional teacher and the most important a parent. I believe Mr. Davison owes the team, the coach and the community an apology for inappropriate behavior.”

“How do you think our boys feel when they hear cruel and critical comments such as these when they are trying their hardest to represent our school and play to the best of their ability?” the other parent said. “How can we, as adults and leaders, talk to our children about an appropriate code of conduct when they see and hear Mr. Davison acting inappropriately at every game with no consequence?”

The documents raise questions about how the school deals with the actions of board members. At no time over Davison’s tenure has the board ever held a public discussion about the complaints, even after more than 20 pages of documents accrued in a file. Former school board members acknowledge, however, they did deal

with the issue in private, with the board agreeing not to bring up the potentially embarrassing materials if Davison toned down his behavior.

None of this was shared with the voters at the time, however.

Davison, meanwhile, continued to raise eyebrows at games. A September 2008 e-mail to Brady came from a parent who claimed to have witnessed several confrontations between Davison and another adult.

“No holds were barred when later in the game after another confrontation with the [redacted] parent I heard, ‘Suck it up cupcake,’” the e-mail said.

“I sincerely hope that was not directed at a visiting parent.”

In the second line of the e-mail the writer says he/she is a school board member as well as a parent, but the e-mail address and the name of the official are both blacked out.

That was not the only letter from someone clearly connected to the school.

“My players cringe every time Mr. Davison says a word,” an unidentified basketball coach said in an letter addressed to superintendent Nelson.

“Unfortunately he continues screaming throughout the entire game.”

“I have informed Kerry Brady that if Mr. Davison’s behavior doesn’t improve that I am unsure if I would coach next year,” the letter, which had all dates erased, says. “I truly love coaching the [redacted] team over the last three years, but his screaming and derogatory comments are something that I am unsure if I would be able to endure next year. He has truly made this year a tough and embarrassing year for my team and the school as well as myself.”

Not every note was purely critical. One parent who sent concerns to Brady finished the e-mail by saying, “Despite all this, I think Randy has the players’ best interests at heart, and he is generous with his time and resources. Unfortunately he can’t seem to control his comments.”

Others were far less forgiving.

“I have been watching my children play sports all over the state of New Hampshire for over 10 years,” a parent said in an e-mail this past fall. “Never have I experienced such a rude and disrespectful fan.”

That letter recounts one side of an incident at a soccer game that resulted in Davison getting barred from Berlin school property. Another e-mail pertaining to that same incident, however, paints the incident in a much more positive light. see next page

The e-mail, written by a Conway bus driver, says Davison was calm and complimentary at the game, but a female Berlin fan accosted him.

“This woman was so inappropriate, out of control, she lost it,” the bus driver said. “Randy never said a word to her.”

Davison withstood a barrage of insults, the e-mail goes on to say, without ever responding inappropriately.

However, almost every part of that e-mail, which was provided by the school’s attorney along with the 21 others, was redacted, including the defense of Davison. The school’s attorney’s office believes it was the judge that removed that information.

The Sun, however, received an unredacted copy of the e-mail, which included

town of Ossipee on charges of possession of a controlled drug and operating after suspension.

11:05 p.m. — Benjamin Cande, 31, of Tamworth, was arrested on Route 16 in the town of Ossipee on charges of DWI and illegal transportation of alcohol.

ACCIDENTS Feb. 17 11:06 p.m. — A single-vehicle accident occurred on Route 153 in the town of Effingham. The operator of the vehicle was Elizabeth Bernier, 22 of North Conway. State Police say Bernier was southbound and struck a deer that ran into the roadway. Nobody in the vehicle was injured.

Feb. 20 1:13 p.m. — A two-vehicle accident occurred on Route 16 in the town of Albany.

The operators of the vehicles were Michael J. Warren, 52, of Fryeburg, Maine, and Lauren A. McCarey, 30 of Somerville, Mass. Investigation revealed that both vehicles were northbound when the Warren vehicle, a truck, lost a rock off the load it was carrying, striking and breaking the windshield of the McCarey vehicle. There were no reported injuries.

Feb. 21 5:46 a.m. — A two-vehicle accident occurred on Route 25 in the town of Sandwich. Operators of the vehicles were Daniel R. Palmer, 39 of Tamworth, and Rocco F. Carter, 51 of Tamworth. Both vehicles were eastbound when a moose entered the roadway.

Both vehicles struck the moose. Nobody in the vehicles was injured.

Feb. 23 6:33 a.m. — A fatal single-vehicle accident occurred on Route 16 in the town of Albany.

The operator and victim was identified as Corey Boivin, 27, of Gilford. The accident remains under investigation; however, preliminary investigation suggests that speed, weather and roadway conditions appear to have been factors in the crash. Boivin appears to have lost control, and his vehicle went off the roadway and struck a tree.

the defense of Davison's actions.

With so much of the documents removed it is hard to put into context all of what happened in each reported incident, but the school has agreed to review the paperwork to see if they can reveal more of the information.

The names of school employees, like coaches and athletic directors, that were redacted should be reinstated, the school’s attorney’s office said, once the school board gives approval.

The redaction effort was primarily to conceal the identity of the students involved, but there were questions as to whether it was done with too heavy a hand.

“We just tried as hard as we could to make sure the name of the student isn’t revealed,” attorney John Teague said. “We tried not to overdo it. There is no perfect solution.”

“My husband and I would like to thank you for the very special care you have given me. We have every confidence in you and your expertise. It is always a pleasure meeting someone who is so dedicated to helping others. My experience under your care has been spectacular and I know it will be a long lasting relationship. I am now able to hear every spoken word, I never realized what I was missing. Once again, I sincerely thank you.”

The article, No. 18 on the warrant, asks for voters’ blessing to accept a U.S. Department of Justice grant that would pay three years salary and benefits for a new full-time officer. The town would then be on the hook for the fourth year.

The grant, however, is not imminent. It is unclear if it will even come available this year. The warrant article is meant to get the voters’ approval beforehand in order to eliminate the need for a special town meeting sometime later this year should the grant come available.

Conway has a rule that departments can’t accept grants that impact the budget without first getting approval from the voters, approval that can only come from a town meeting vote.

Last fall the department asked town officials to plan a special town meeting when it looked like police might receive one of these grants. The grant did not come through, but such meetings cost money. Police officials decided this year to ask for the voters approval at the April meeting just in case the opportunity comes up again.

The wording, however, has confused members of the public and the budget committee. Several people have asked police officials if they intend to use the grant to cover the vacant position the department has been looking to fill for months (the answer is no, the grant won’t allow that) or when the money will arrive (the grant, however, has not yet been applied for).

The federal government, meanwhile, does not do this grant every year, so it is possible the question will not even apply. There is also the possibility that Conway might not be selected as one of the communities to receive one of the grant, as happened last year. If there is no grant or Conway isn’t a recipient of one, article 18 will go nowhere.

The police commission, however, wants to be ready with voter approval

Police officials argue this is an opportunity to get another police officer that the department needs badly at no cost to the taxpayers for the first three years.

if there is a grant and the town gets offered it.

Last year the department was trying to pull strings in Washington to get the date of the grant announcement pushed back. The grant requires that communities say yes or no to the grant within 30 days of notification, which does not leave enough time to put together and hold a special meeting. Without the pre-approval, officials argue, then accepting the grant becomes next to impossible.

Police officials argue this is an opportunity to get another police officer that the department needs badly at no cost to the taxpayers for the first three years. The department asked for three additional officers last year, two of which were rejected by the voters.

They are asking for another officer in a separate warrant article this year.

Article 18 would create the possibility that the department could get one more officer for three years at no cost to local taxpayers.

Others, however, point to the cost of the fourth year and those following.

The grant requires the department maintain its staffing level for the fourth year, and critics point out that once the officer is in the budget it is unlikely to be eliminated.

At a recent budget committee meeting, however, Lt. Chris Perley said there is little chance the department will shrink anytime soon. The need for officers is going up, he said, and it is unlikely that trend will reverse in the next three, four or five years.

Warrant articles target Madison road agent

BY DAYMOND STEER THE CONWAY DAILY SUN

MADISON — Claims of incompetence and nepotism by the road agent have led an ad hoc committee to file a series of petitioned warrant articles to be voted on at town meeting in March.

The elected road agent Bill Chick Sr. made headlines last year for hiring a second son to work for him at the highway department and also for overspending a $228,000 warrant article to reclaim Tasker Hill Road by nearly $36,000.

Further, the group asserts selectmen have been hesitant to keep Chick in line.

Chick is running unopposed in March.

Attempts to reach Chick for this article were unsuccessful.

Chick has maintained that the Tasker Hill Road project was over-budget because the road's pavement was thicker than anticipated and he needed to bring in gravel to form an adequate base for the new pavement.

If approved at town meeting, the ad hoc group's proposed warrant articles would: change the road agent position from being elected to appointed; direct selectmen to exercise their authority over the road agent; defer all major projects until highway management is reformed; and prevent nepotism by barring officials from hiring their close family members.

Committee members say selectmen are hesitant to stop Chick because the voters got upset the last time they tried. Selectmen in the past have supported making the road agent an appointed position but their efforts failed.

At the time, selectmen were criticized for allegedly trying to make a "power grab," said Bob King.

Another group member, Dick Eldridge, said changing the road agent to an appointed position makes sense because it would allow selectmen to hire a road agent who lives out of town. Currently, an elected road agent must reside in Madison.

Ad hoc group mem-

bers say Chick just reacts to road problems as they arise and doesn't take a proactive approach to maintenance. Further, the group says Chick "works hard" to please 51 percent of Madison voters.

"The road agent doesn't have to have any qualifications, he just has to be popular," said group member Bud Bickford.

Selectmen's chair John Arruda had no comment.

Town meeting is Saturday, March 17, beginning at 9 a.m. at Madison Elementary School. The ad hoc group is asking for a secret ballot for its warrant articles.

Town and school elections will take place on Tuesday, March 13.

Polls will be open from 8 a.m. to 7 p.m. at the ele-

mentary school. There are no contested races.

Other issues to be voted on at Madison town meeting: * Article three is the proposed town budget.

The proposed town budget is $2,174,346. Last year's actual spending was $1,997,857. * Article four asks voters for $100,000 for engineering services and beginning reconstruction of East Madison Road. * Article 22 asks voters to authorize yearround maintenance on a portion of Lead Mine Road. * Article 24 asks voters to authorize selectmen to sign a quitclaim on the Madison Boulder for the purpose of giving the State of New Hampshire the responsibility of maintenance and upkeep.

GED tests to change in 2014

BY LLOYD JONES THE CONWAY DAILY SUN

Debbie Tasker, New Hampshire GED administrator, is reaching out to adults who wish to earn a New Hampshire Certificate of High School Equivalency and encouraging them to complete and pass the current GED tests.

The tests will be changing on Jan. 1, 2014.

“We’re reaching out to adults of all ages who need a high school credential,” Tasker says, “but we especially want to locate people who started GED testing but haven’t yet passed all sections. When the GED tests change on Jan. 1, 2014, those who didn’t complete the current tests or who missed passing by even one point will have to start over. It can be heartbreaking.”

According to the GED Testing Service LLC which is developing the new GED tests, the 2014 version will be administered on computers and will be correlated to the Common Core State Standards. GED examiners don’t know for sure whether the new tests will seem more difficult for adult learners, but they agree that it makes sense to complete the current familiar

tests before the end of 2013.

The last time GED tests changed was Jan. 1, 2002. In the year leading up to that change, New Hampshire testing centers saw a 37 percent increase in GED testing. A few examiners even held New Year’s Eve sessions to accommodate people trying to finish on the last possible day.

“New Hampshire examiners are prepared to help GED candidates complete testing,” Tasker reports, "but we definitely don’t suggest waiting until the end of 2013. If a high school equivalency certificate will help you meet your goals for job advancement or post-secondary education, act now.”

If you or someone you know lacks a high school credential, visit www. education.nh.gov/career/adult/ged_ test_ctrs.htm for a list of GED testing centers or call the New Hampshire GED Office in the New Hampshire Department of Education at 271-6699 for information.

There are a few local GED testing centers. In Conway, you can contact either Kim Mathison (323-8857) or Rachelle Cox (356-4309); in Wakefield, Ginny Schweitzer (986-1116); or in Berlin, Sr. Carmen Blais (752-1927).

Eastman leads Raiders; now a two-time state champ

BY CHARLIE TRYDER THE CONWAY DAILY SUN

FRYEBURG — The Fryeburg Academy ski team traveled to Black Mountain last Wednesday through Friday to participate in the Maine Class A State Ski Championship Meet. Appropriately, in this season marked by a lack of snow, the Raiders competed in less than ideal weather, but they managed to stay focused and work through the tough conditions.

In the combined nordic and alpine score, the boys finished fifth in the state with 458 points and the girls finished sixth with 469 points. The Falmouth boys emerged as the state class A champions with 177 points, and the Mt. Blue girls won the state championship with 214 points.

The nordic events, according to Coach John Weston, were particularly difficult. On the first day of the competition, skiers needed to wax for temperatures in the mid 40’s, and to make matters more challenging, a light rain fell. Weston commented on the challenge, “We have been fighting bad weather all year. We had some challenges with wax for the classical race, but we made out pretty well.”

Silas Eastman won the race with a 13:51 time, and Paul Kurnick finished 10th with a 15:24 race. The two made All-State honors due to their Top 10 finishes.

Adam Armington, who has been improving all year, finished 15th with a 15:55.8 time. Logan Gershman, the last Raider scorer, raced a 16:30.1 to place 21st. Peter Caffrey finished 43rd

and Liam Leconey 47th.

The Raider boys left the day in third place. They knew Falmouth was the favorite heading into the day, but Weston expressed surprise that Mt. Blue, who the Raiders soundly defeated in a meet earlier in the year, finished ahead of them.

Hannah Plowden was the top girls’ finisher with a 21:47.3 time, good enough for 28th place. Amber Dindorf crossed the finish line in 22:35 for a 35th place. Kelsey Liljedahl, a skimeister candidate, finished in 23:25.4 for 40th. First year skier Laura Pulito finished in 25:03 in her first state race for f47th place finish to round out the Raider scoring.

The question entering the second day of nordic competition was could Eastman repeat as a double state champion by winning both the classical and freestyle events.

Eastman survived the weather and won both nordic state races for the second year in a row. Weston talked of the difficulties of preparing for this race, “There was nothing but warm, slushy snow. They had to change the course over night because they lost some snow, and to make things worse, late in the day at 4 p.m. or so the course began to freeze and get solid. It was a quickly changing situation, and I was concerned because Silas started late in the race.”

Eastman raced an 11:48.1 for the win to become a two-time double state champion. Adam Armington raced a see SKIING page

Kennett draws Souhegan in girls basketball playoffs

BY LLOYD JONES THE CONWAY DAILY SUN

CONWAY — The Kennett High girls basketball team will play defending state champs Souhegan in the opening round of the Division II playoffs which tip off today.

The No. 6 seeded Sabers (14-4) will host the No. 11 Eagles (10-8) at 7 p.m. The two schools have won the last two state championships but have not met this season — something Coach Larry Meader thinks will help his Eagles.

“They’re good,” Meader said of Souhegan. “We know we’re going to have to contend with Jane White (two-time All State guard), but I’ve told the girls I believe we can play with anyone when we play our game for 32 minutes.”

Souhegan has won seven in a row including knocking off previously undefeated Hollis-Brookline 42-40 on the road last Tuesday. In that game White scored 22 points, including six 3-pointers, for the Sabers, who closed out the season Thursday by topping visiting Kingswood 52-30.

The winner of today’s contest advances to the quarterfinals on Friday (7 p.m). Kennett or Souhegan will play either No. 3 Merrimack Valley or No. 14 Pelham, who also play today.

Kennett wrapped up its regular season Thursday on the road with a 55-41 victory over Laconia (1-17).

“It was a very good game from our standpoint,” Meader said. “We really came out with a lot of intensity.

Prior to Saturday’s face-off, Kennett recognized its seven seniors — John Bishop, Gabe Lee, Matt Kelly, Chris King, Murphy, Cody Richard and Dan Rivera — for their contributions to the program.

“I’m really proud of our seniors,” Michael Lane, Eagles’ head coach, said. “They’ve meant a lot to our program. It was nice to see them get a W in their final (regular season) home game.”

Lane and the seniors are hoping to play three more games and be victorious in all three and if that

happens they’ll be state champions.

“I’m taking things one game at a time,” Lane said.

“I never look ahead (at the playoff seedings). We need to concentrate on the task at hand because if we don’t, it’s one bad night and you’re done.”

The New Hampshire Interscholastic Athletic Association (NHIAA) expanded the playoff field to 10 teams in Division III this season. The top four

Eagles win regular season finale; top seed for the playoffs

BY LLOYD JONES THE CONWAY DAILY SUN

CONWAY — The Kennett High ice hockey team will be the No. 1 seed for the Division III playoffs which begin this week. The Eagles took care of business on Senior Night Saturday by defeating Souhegan 6-4 at Ham Ice Arena in the regular-season finale. KHS got strong play from everyone including junior Dillon Smith who finished the night with a hat-trick.

Look beyond the records to see the heart

THE CONWAY DAILY SUN

On a sports page trumpeting triumphs of Kennett Eagles teams that have just won state championships in skiing, are approaching hockey playoffs as a top seed, and have girls counterparts from the hardwood hoops floor continuing on to tournament play with a winning record, it would be easy to neglect a boys basketball team with a 2-15 won-loss record (Last night’s season road game finale at Kingswood — results not available at press time).

Last Thursday, Senior Night for six senior boys basketball Eagles, gave ample proof why that would be a mistake. The story in high school athletics is not just about winning and losing, but about perseverance, dedication, commitment and improvement. Teams displaying these characteristics achieve success regardless of the outcomes on the scoreboard; Kennett boys displayed these attributes in spades on a night in which efforts resulted in a win. Kennett reversed their fortunes from a 57-47 pre-Christmas break loss at Laconia for a 49-42 victory over the Sachems in the Eagles’ seniors last hurrah on the home court.

To Coach Steve Cote, there was “nothing better than the smiling faces in the (post-game) locker room. Our record shows a tough year, but give all credit to the players. Not one guy was ever complaining.”

Approaching the second week of February with a record of 0-11, Kennett boys hoopsters could have lost heart, but Cote notes of his players, “These guys fed on the chase of getting better.”

Players regularly greeted coach at the gym door, eager to be first on court. One late school evening after departing from a budget meeting in the high school auditorium opposite the Kennett gym, this columnist caught senior co-captain Alex Milford and sophomore reserve Ryan Vajentic working on their game and their shooting, long after team practice had ended.

This Sunday noon-time, senior leaders Milford and Robert Starkey took a break from post-practice shoot-around to share their thoughts on a challenging senior season. Both agreed that a 60-57 loss at Merrimack Valley on January 26 marked a season turning point. After sticking with a top divisional opponent (now 12-5) for a full 32 minutes, “we kept playing more together. We cared more, became confident and were sick of losing,” according to Milford.

Heading into Thursday’s Senior Night home finale, character showed through in the dedication to team of first year basketball senior Scott Conner. Having worked his tail off to earn his way into the starting lineup in the final weeks of the season, Conner anticipated what was coming when Cote began to share his dilemma of having only five starting positions for a senior night with six seniors. Conner vol-

unteered his starting position to another teammate/ classmate before coach could finish.

Underclassmen who will build the future of Kennett basketball, some of whom had earned starting positions and loads of playing time, understood the team philosophy and embraced the Laconia game see SKELTON page 18

Wrestling Raiders finish second in the state; three win titles

BY CHARLIE TRYDER THE CONWAY DAILY SUN

FRYEBURG — Fryeburg Academy hosted the Maine Class B Wrestling Championships Feb. 18, and eight Fryeburg wrestlers qualified and competed to reach the podium in their home field house.

Camden ran away with the competition with 169 points, but the Raiders wrestled extremely well and totaled 109 points to finish comfortably in second place in the state.

Entering the State Meet, Coach Bryce Thurston knew the Raiders could finish second, so he wasn’t completely surprised that at the championship his team passed several schools that defeated them in the regional meet.

Thurston spoke about the State Meet results.

“We weren’t sure how the match ups were going to play out,” he said. “York and Mt. Valley beat us at Regionals, but a lot of our wrestlers drew byes and they couldn’t score any points in the early rounds.

And we had some people that didn’t place that I thought would. We still finished third. I thought we could get runner-up at the State Meet, but a lot of people predicted us to finish third or fourth.”

Connor Sheehan won his 113 pound weight class with relative ease. Nobody contested Sheehan. He won his finals match 10-0. According to Thurston, “Nobody around here in state at that weight can wrestle with him right now.”

Brother Zachary Sheehan, a ninth grader, won at 120 pounds. Sheehan and Sevigny of Wells, met once again in the championship match for their fifth meeting of the year. Sevigny defeated Sheehan 8-3 last week at the regional meet, but this time Sheehan held on for a 5-3 win.

Thurston speculated on the magnitude of the ninth grader’s accomplishment, “I am not sure but he may be the first freshman win a state championship.”

C.J. Bartlett also won a state championship at 160.

Bartlett may have provided the biggest surprise of the day on the winner’s podium. According to Thurston, not many people picked him to get by the York wrestler who defeated him at the regional meet, but Bartlett got the job done.

Although Kirk Hubbard did not win at 138 pounds, he finished a surprising second scoring another upset for the Raiders.

A state champion contender all year long, Jake Thurston battled injuries down the stretch run of the season. Bone spurs as well as some bone chips floating in his elbow made it difficult to wrestle at all, but he finished third at 145 pounds.

Thurston noted Jake’s willingness to wrestle in pain. “He did real well with bone spurs in his elbow and bone chips floating around. It has been bothered him. It’s a tough way to end the season, but he wrestled through the pain. A lot of wrestlers

wouldn’t have even been on the matt.”

Derek Leavitt worked his way through the match to get a fourth place finish at 195 pounds. He lost in the first round but he wrestled back through the semifinals to beat a Gardiner wrestler he lost to last week.

Matt Frost lost a close, tough match in the semifinals at 126 pounds, but he got two wins for Raiders.

Ryan Buzzell at 132 pounds and Forrest Stearns at 170 pounds both got a win at the state despite not placing.

Thurston noted that every wrestler won at least on match for the Raiders, “Getting these wins was huge for us in winning second place as a team.”

Overall, Thurston could not have been happier with the Raiders finish to their season.

“It was a great finish to the season. We stepped it up just at the right time for states. I was especially happy for Zach winning it as a freshman in a real exciting match. C.J. worked hard over the last two years to win as a junior, and most kids wouldn’t have wrestled with the pain Jake went through. And of course Connor was just as consistent as always. It was a good way to finish the year, especially to have it all happen at home.”

The three state champs – Bartlett and the Sheehan brothers, will wrestle at the New Englands in Providence Rhode Island this week. Thurston will take them down to see how they fare against competition from around the state.

Stewart along with their families were recognized in a terrific pre-game ceremony and then they went out and scored all but seven of the Eagles points while playing inspired defense.

Kennett fell behind by as many as eight points in the first half, but never looked rattled. Trailing 4-0 early, Davison, who finished the night with a game-high 18 points, put KHS on the board with an old-fashioned three-point play. He went to the hoop, drew a foul and still got the basket and then drained the free-throw to make it a 4-3 contest.

The Eagles trailed 14-8 with 1:18 left in the opening period when Cote called a timeout.

“Come on,” were the first words out of the coach’s mouth followed by “don’t be lazy.”

Those words of wisdom did the trick.

“I told the guys they had to reach down and take

care of the basketball better,” Cote said. “We worked on a strategy to extend the floor defensively and try to take Laconia out of its comfort zone. It was a nice defensive effort. Neither team was very offensive in the first half. I think once our nerves settled down we were able to pull away.”

It remained 14-8 Laconia after the first quarter and the Sachems actually scored the first two points to open the second period, but then KHS put the defensive clamps on the boys from Laconia.

Following a successful Milford jumper, Laconia made it 18-10 with 5:19 left in the second quarter.

The Sachems were held to just one point over the next 14 minutes.

Kennett closed out the half on a 9-0 run (two Star-

Kennett senior boys win home basketball finale in style

BY LLOYD JONES THE CONWAY DAILY SUN

CONWAY — The Kennett High boys basketball team closed the book on the regular season at home in style on Thursday night with a win on Senior Night and fittingly each of the six seniors tickled the twine for points in the 49-42 victory over visiting Laconia.

“It was a sweet feeling,” Steve Cote, Eagles’ head coach, said. “I’m really happy for it to end this way at home for our seniors. As I’ve said before they’ve been the bedrock for this program and they deserved to go out on a good note. Nights like (Thursday) make the work six days a week for three months all worth it. Hopefully our seniors will look back on this experience fondly.”

schools have earned first round byes while six others will be in action tomorrow night.

The Eagles will have their eyes focussed on the match-up between No. 8 Somersworth (9-9), the defending state champs, and No. 9 Portsmouth (8-91). The two schools split a pair of regular season meetings with both contests decided by just one goal. Portsmouth beat Somersworth 6-5 at Somersworth on Dec. 14. Somersworth returned the favor Jan. 24, winning 5-4 in Portsmouth.

Kennett will host tomorrow’s winner in the quarterfinals on Saturday at 7 p.m. at Ham Ice Arena.

The Eagles beat Portsmouth 7-2 on the road in their lone meeting Jan. 3, and also topped Somersworth twice, winning 5-0 in Somersworth on Jan. 14 and 4-1 in Conway on Feb. 17.

A win Saturday and Kennett advances to the Frozen Four in Concord on Wednesday, March 7 at 7 p.m. The Division III finals are slated for Sunday, March 11 at noon in the Verizon Wireless Arena in Manchester.

“The coaching staff will be at the (Somersworth versus Portsmouth) game to scout,” Lane said. “Our focus will be 100 percent on these two teams. After we know who we’re playing we’ll put our game prep in place Thursday and practice on Friday to get ready. “…This is not your typical one versus eight matchup,” he continued. “I think both teams can create problems if you’re not prepared. Regardless of who we play it’s going to be a good test. I’m hoping we’ll get a big crowd out to support the team. I can’t tell you what it does for this group knowing the community is behind them.”

Saturday’s game against Souhegan, who drew the No. 5 seed for the playoffs, was a see-saw contest early on with both teams displaying plenty of firepower. The Sabers, who have one of the top powerplays in Division III, scored all of their goals when they had a man advantage. Two of the goals game from preceding page

key 3-pointers and three free throws by Davison) to lead 19-18 at the intermission.

“When Robert settles down and shoots with confidence he’s a very good shooter,” Cote said. “…Seth’s game really starts with his defense. He plays good defense and the offense tends to take care of itself. Once he lets his defense dictate the tempo, good things tend to happen and he took advantage of his opportunities.”

The Eagles added to their lead to open the third quarter by scoring the first eight points (a Davison runner in the lane; a Milford layup; a Conner jumper; and a Jordan Stocker layup) to make it 27-18.

After the Sachems converted a free-throw with 2:59 left in the third quarter, KHS closed out the period on a 10-0 run that culminated with a Davison three-pointer at the buzzer that drew nothing but net. He started the run with a jumper and sophBathing & Styling Salon

on five-on-three power-plays. When the sides were at full strength Kennett controlled the play.

KHS took the lead seven minutes in when Smith took a feed from Connor Todd and slipped it fivehole to put the hosts in front. Kevin Murphy also had an assist on the play.

Souhegan took advantage of a couple of powerplay opportunities to go in front 2-1 but the Eagles drew level on a power-play tally of their own seconds later. Anthony LaRusso knotted the game at two with Nick Massa and Todd assisting on the goal.

LaRusso gave the Eagles the lead with 42 seconds to play in the first period when he took a pass from Massa, who worked the puck loose, and LaRusso beat the goaltender blocker side for a 3-2 Eagles lead headed to the dressing room.

The Eagles out-shot the Sabers 18-10 in the period.

Kennett picked up a pair of penalties at 10:53 of the second period and the visitors took advantage of the five-on-three to tie the game at 3-3.

The boys from Conway took the lead for good with 6:23 to play in the second when Smith netted his second goal of the night with Chris King and Todd getting assists.

Smith capped his hat-trick with 3:11 to play with Todd and King once again assisting on the strike.

Murphy put the hosts in front 6-3 with 9:28 left in the third period when he uncorked a slapshot that found the back of the net.

Bishop, who had 22 saves in the win, made a pair of sensational back-to-back stops with 8:45 to play. He later followed that up with a fine save with three minutes to play when he thwarted a Souhegan breakaway.

Souhegan did close out the scoring with 3:56 remaining scoring on a five-on-three power-play.

Kennett was hit with 10 penalties in the night while Souhegan was penalized six times.

“We know that we can’t commit 10 penalties in the playoffs,” Lane said. “We’ve got to play good, disciplined hockey.” omore Ryan Vajentic added a 3-pointer of his own and scored on a driving layup.

Kennett led 37-19 after three quarters and built the lead to 20 points (42-22) on another Davison 3-pointer.

The Sachems to their credit battled back in the fourth quarter with a frantic charge to pull within seven with 10 seconds to play. Senior captain Brendan Sorrell hit two three-pointers in the waning minutes.

“It got a little too close for comfort at the end,” Cote said, smiling, “but what would you expect from a team that was two games out of a playoff spot.

You’ve got to tip your cap to Brendan Sorrell, he’s a warrior, and he tried to will his team to victory.”

While Davison had 18 points in the win, other KHS scorers were Starkey, 9; Conner, 6; Milford, 5; Vajentic, 5; Lautenschlager, 2; Stewart, 2; and Stocker, 2.

The win lifted Kennett to 2-15.

13:48.4 to finish 17th. Logan Gershman, the third Raider scorer, finished 27th with a 14:23.3 time, and Peter Caffrey finished 36th with a 15:11 time.

Kurnick, typically a Top 10 finisher even at state events, was battling a head cold and consequently could not muster the energy necessary to compete. As a result, the Raiders could not pass Mt. Blue, and in fact, Oxford Hills slipped ahead of them for third place.

All things considered, Weston felt the fourth place finish was reasonable for the boys, “With Paul fighting a head cold, we lost some points.

Paul could finish Top 10, but you can only ask so much of someone when KENNETT from page 14

It was (Laconia’s) Senior Night, and I knew we’d either come out determined or might be flat and that would allow (Laconia) to build in confidence. Our girls were ready to play and we jumped out to a 21-5 lead after the first quarter.”

The Sachems were able to get as close as seven points in the second half but the girls from Conway went on a 6-0 run to restore a double-digit cushion and never looked back.

“It was actually good to see Laconia got on a bit of a run and for us to respond,” Meader said. “The girls stepped up and met the challenge.”

Jordan Murphy led the Eagles in scoring with 13 points while Lauren White added 12; Jessie Wagner, 9 (three 3-pointers all in the first period); Casey Blakely, 6; Kaitlin “Shaq” Taylor, 6; Kaylin Samia, 3; Erin Milford, 2;

they are sick. You can’t do much about losing your number two skier.

Overall, I was happy with the way everyone skied.”

Although the girls finished in ninth place in the nordic events, they also skied well. Plowden carried her momentum into the second day of the nordic event and placed 31st in 18:37.9. Liljedahl followed in 19:04.7, 35th; Dindorf and Daniel DeLucco finished 41st and 46th, respectively, in 20:27 and 21:05.

Weston noted that the girls’ team will be a strong group in the future, “Our top three girls are all back next year. For a young group, this state meet was a solid performance.”

The Raider alpine team also battled slushy conditions on the slopes. Nev-

ertheless, there were some notable performances. Christina DiPietro finished sixth in the giant slalom and 15th in the slalom race.

Elle Burbank was 14th in the giant slalom and 29th in slalom; Jennifer Prince earned a 17th place in the slalom; Chelsea Abraham raced to a 22nd in GS; and Liz McDermott was 25th in GS. For the boys Ian Shea placed 19th in the slalom and 22nd in the giant slalom. Kevin Reardon was 18th in GS and 27th in slalom.

In the skimeister competition, Kelsey Liljedahl came home with the silver medal. Only a junior, Liljedahl is the first skimeister candidate to make the podium in a while for the Raiders according to Weston.

Lauren Kidder, 2; and Jordyn Moore, 1.

KHS played its final home game last Tuesday when it hosted CoeBrown Academy (15-3 and the third seed for the playoffs). The four seniors — Blakely, Kendra Strong, Taylor and Wagner — were recognized beforehand in a nice ceremony before a good-sized crowd at The Nest.

Kennett played the Bears well for the first 14 minutes and led by five before the visitors went on a 29-4 run to put the game away and win 67-45.

“I told the girls afterward, ‘You played great for 14 minutes, but against CoeBrown you’ve got to play great for the whole 16 minutes,’” Meader said. “We were up five with two minutes to go when they got three or four shots with each possession and pulled away.”

Kennett jumped out to an 8-1 first quarter lead by playing stingy defense

and clicking on offense. Strong, in her first career start, scored back-to-back baskets; Blakely hit a jump shot; and Murphy converted a layup off a nifty pass from Wagner in the great start.

The Eagles led 10-8 after the opening quarter, but the Bears got their offense in gear in the second quarter.

They took an 18-15 lead on a Meredith Gray 3-pointer, but that sparked a 10-2 KHS run (two Blakely jumpers; a Kidder layup; a Murphy steal and coast-to-coast layup; and a White offensive rebound and put-back).

Kennett led 25-20 with two minutes left in the half, but didn’t score the rest of the quarter. The Bears scored 13 points in the final two minutes to lead 33-25 at halftime. Coe-Brown got the lead up to 20 points, 49-29 with three minutes left in the third period and led 54-37 heading into the fourth quarter.

plan, including Cote giving the seniors “the lion’s share of minutes.”

The Eagles started slowly against the Sachems with a sluggish first quarter effort. Then, “we started playing for ourselves, our pride, and a chance to go out well in our last home game,” according to Milford. Kennett went on a 27-1 run during the second and third quarters and used defensive intensity to limit the Sachems to just five points during the games central 16 minutes.

The Eagles finished out their second season victory and destroyed Laconia’s final hope for a playoff spot with the win. Last night’s shot to again play spoiler to a traditional rival at the Knights home court in Wolfeboro assured one last barn-burner of a game opportunity for the Eagles.

This exposure to tournament-like intensity will serve Kennett underclassmen well into the future. Freshman starting point guard Brandon DiLucchio predicts more victories ahead for future years and a deep tournament run during his playing days at KHS. Getting any program to turn the corner toward more winning teams requires tremendous heart.

This seasons senior group of Milford, Starkey, Conner, Seth Davison, Mike Lautenschlager and Dustin Stewart certainly stuck with it all year. While the record book will not show the 2011-12 Eagles boys basketball with distinction, the inside story is: this team never gave up and established a legacy of effort and commitment for future teams to build upon.

‘Morning Garden’ program at White Mountain Waldorf School starts March 2

Did you miss me this past week? I was taking a break down in Palm Beach for a few days visiting a dear, dear friend. Carolyn and I were able to take in the Nutopians’ John Lennon Tribute in P.B. at the Kravis Center on Saturday night. How cool to see Alana MacDonald, Tom Dean, Rex Fowler, Teg Glendon, and the gang down here. It was an awesome concert. They will also be performing at Stone Mountain Arts Center on June 8, so plan to enjoy their great music. It is pretty funny that I go south for four days and it finally snows up here. I’ve been waiting for the snow all winter. Crazy.

DILBERT

by Scott Adams

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

“Posers” abound. People who can talk a good game don’t fool you, though.

You actually walk the walk, and you know the difference. Others won’t be so savvy, and you may have to intervene on their behalf.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21).

Many valuable discoveries have been made by chance rather than contemplation. However, chance favors the actively contemplative, as well as those taking risks and putting their names into the hat several times.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19).

You’re in awe of people who have a talent that you do not possess. Others are in awe of you for the exact same reason, though you are so used to your own talents that you may not even see them as anything remarkable.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18).

You’ll lead the action. Even though you have a strong sense of discovery, it will take you a few minutes to warm up to new situations. Take the time you need to get comfortable.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). No one gets through life by being good at one thing and one thing only. Your efforts to diversify will serve you well.

You’ll be brave enough to try new things and wise enough to realize early on what’s for you and what isn’t.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Feb. 28). You go into the year with a strong, determined attitude. In April, a softness takes its place as loved ones strike a chord in your compassionate heart.

Your warmth inspires commitments.

You’ll make connections, join groups and lead people in June. A windfall happens in April, July and December.

Aquarius and Taurus people adore you.

Your lucky numbers are: 20, 1, 22, 38 and 13.

Get Fuzzy

ARIES (March 21-April 19). You tend to take responsibility, bring in the money, put food on the table and keep relationships in good standing. What would you do if you found out that it is also your job to have fun?

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You’ll be reminded of an interesting truth: Events don’t have to be planned to be a success. The spontaneous twists, goofs and challenges make things better. Your good time hinges on an element of surprise.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). The pursuit of self-knowledge is often happening on a subconscious level for you, but today it will be foremost on your mind. The better you can understand yourself the better you can create emotional closeness with others.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). You are only ambitious to a degree. You know when you are content, and you stop there. That’s a gift. So many people suffer because they can’t recognize when enough is enough.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You feel focused and want to stay on task. But something will happen to interrupt and tempt you. Opportunities for pleasure must be seized. Otherwise, they come less often. If you don’t enjoy your life, who will?

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You want things to go your way, but you also realize the possibility that there’s something even better that might occur if you remain open-minded. It takes maturity to stay flexible.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You’ll get what you didn’t expect. Don’t write this off as some kind of mistake. Be resilient. Discover the value in life’s odd offerings. And if there is no apparent value, consider that there might be a message or lesson instead.

In 1951, the Senate committee headed by Estes Kefauver, D-Tenn., issued an interim report saying at least two major crime syndicates were operating in the U.S. In 1953, scientists James D. Watson and Francis H.C. Crick announced they had discovered the double-helix structure of DNA, the molecule that contains the human genes.

In 1997, in North Hollywood, Calif., two heavily armed and armored robbers bungled a bank heist and came out firing, unleashing their arsenal on police, bystanders, cars and TV choppers before they were killed.

One year ago: The United States and European allies intensified efforts to isolate Libya’s Moammar Gadhafi, redoubling demands for him to step down, questioning his mental state and warning that those who stayed loyal to him risked losing their wealth and facing prosecution for human rights abuses.

by Abigail Van Buren

MOM CRINGES AT BAD EXAMPLE HER BOYFRIEND’S CHILDREN SET

DEAR ABBY: My boyfriend has proposed. I love him very much, but I’m worried about my kids. I look at his children -- his son is 23 and barely made it out of high school. He got a girl pregnant at 17, has been in jail a few times and is an alcoholic. His 15-year-old daughter is immature for her age and constantly getting into trouble at school. Their mother is an alcoholic and a drug user. Are my concerns for my children valid? -- WORRIED IN WEST VIRGINIA DEAR WORRIED: Yes, they are, because your children will be exposed to all of the negative influences that his children will bring with them into your blended family. Be smart and hold off marrying your boyfriend until your children are old enough not to be influenced by his children. Your first concern must be for your children’s well-being.

DEAR ABBY: I read your answer to “Thrilled in San Jose” (Dec. 28), the couple who want to celebrate paying off their mortgage, on the same day I read an article about how middle-class Americans have sabotaged themselves by abandoning thrifty habits like saving and ... paying off their mortgages!

I disagree with your answer that the couple should celebrate privately. A generation of Americans now has no idea that paying off a mortgage is even possible. So I say to that couple: Celebrate tastefully and publicly in the same thrifty way that enabled you to pay off that mortgage. And while you’re at it, be prepared to share the tips and habits that enabled you to achieve this wonderful success. Who knows?

Your party might educate and inspire. -- I’D LIKE AN INVITATION

DEAR I’D LIKE: I was surprised at the number of readers who were fired up over my answer to “Thrilled” about burning the mortgage. Most said that this is a milestone that should be celebrated. My readers comment: DEAR ABBY: I think it’s great to throw a mortgage-burning party to celebrate paying off a home mortgage. Today we go overboard not to offend. True friends would be happy when something good happens and not jealous. How selfcentered is that attitude? People need to start feeling happy for the success of others. -- LORI IN GIG HARBOR, WASH. DEAR ABBY: I believe “Thrilled” and her husband should have their mortgage-burning party. Achievements like this should be celebrated. Too often in our country people have piled on debt they couldn’t afford and made decisions purely to keep up with “the Joneses.” By sharing their success story, including any struggles they may have overcome, they can be an inspiration for the loved ones in their lives to follow.

-- DEBBIE IN THE SOUTHWEST DEAR ABBY: Please advise “Thrilled” not to ACTUALLY burn the mortgage. In California the lender has to provide a release document in the form of a Deed of Reconveyance or Satisfaction of Mortgage that must be recorded with the county recorder’s office in order to remove the lien of the loan from the chain of title for the house. If the lender doesn’t record it, then the borrower must do so -- copies don’t count; originals do. If “Thrilled” decided to sell the house and the release has not been recorded, or if she doesn’t have the original, it could delay the sale by months. -- LINDA IN SAN FRANCISCO
