Judge orders Davison letters released Twenty-three pages of letters regarding school board member’s behavior at sporting events BY ERIK EISELE THE CONWAY DAILY SUN
CONWAY — School officials said they have no plans to challenge a superior court ruling ordering the district to release documents concerning inappropriate behavior
at sporting events by school board member Randy Davison, documents the school argued previously were private. “The district is not going to pursue an appeal,” superintendent Carl Nelson said on Friday. A lawyer for Davison said essentially the
same thing on Monday. “We have no plans of pursing it right now,” attorney James Cowles said. Without a challenge, the order goes into effect 10 days after its release, meaning see DAVISON page 8

Republicans see politics in Super Bowl ad
(NY Times) — The most talked-about advertisement of the Super Bowl did not have a barely clothed supermodel, a cute puppy or a smart-aleck baby. It was a cinematic two-minute commercial featuring Clint Eastwood, an icon of American brawn, likening Chrysler’s comeback to the country’s own economic revival. And within 12 hours of running, it became one of the loudest flashpoints yet in the early re-election campaign of President Obama, providing a reminder, as if one were needed, that in today’s polarized political climate even a tradition as routine as a football championship can be thrust into a partisan light. Some conservative critics saw the ad as political payback and accused the automaker of handing the president a prime-time megaphone in front of one of the largest television audiences of the year. “The leadership of auto companies feel they need to do something to repay their political patronage,” Karl Rove, the Republican strategist who served as President George W. Bush’s top political adviser, said on Fox News. “It is a sign of what happens when you have Chicago-style politics, and the president of the United States and his political minions are, in essence, using our tax dollars to buy corporate advertising.”

Court strikes down ban on gay marriage in California
––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– WORLD/NATION–––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––
LOS ANGELES (NY Times) — A federal appeals court panel ruled on Tuesday that a voter-approved ban on samesex marriage in California violated the Constitution, all but ensuring that the case will proceed to the United States Supreme Court. The three-judge panel issued its ruling Tuesday morning in San Francisco, upholding a decision by Judge Vaughn R. Walker, who had been the
chief judge of the Federal District Court of the Northern District of California but has since retired. The panel found that Proposition 8 – passed by California voters in November 2008 by a margin of 52 percent to 48 percent – violated the equal protection rights of two same-sex couples that brought the suit. The proposition placed a specific prohibition in the State Constitution against marriage between two
people of the same sex. But the 2-1 decision was much more narrowly framed than the sweeping ruling of Judge Walker, who asserted that barring same-sex couples from marrying was a violation of the equal protection and due process clauses of the Constitution. The two judges in this case stated explicitly they were not deciding whether there was a constitutional right for same-sex couples to marry.
U.S. planning to cut embassy staff in Iraq BAGHDAD (NY Times) — Less than two months after American troops left, the State Department is preparing to slash by as much as half the enormous diplomatic presence it had planned for Iraq, a sharp sign of declining American influence in the country. Officials in Baghdad and Washington said that Ambassador James F. Jeffrey and other senior State Department officials are reconsidering the size and scope of the embassy, where the staff has swelled to nearly 16,000 people, mostly contractors.
The expansive diplomatic operation and the $750 million embassy building, the largest of its kind in the world, were billed as necessary to nurture a postwar Iraq on its shaky path to democracy and establish normal relations between two countries linked by blood and mutual suspicion. But the Americans have been frustrated by what they see as Iraqi obstructionism and are now largely confined to the embassy because of security concerns, unable to interact enough with ordinary Iraqis to justify the $6 billion annual price tag.
Russian envoy meets Syrian leaders
BEIRUT, Lebanon (NY Times) — Russia’s foreign minister visited Syria’s top leaders in Damascus on Tuesday, at a moment when Western and Arab nations are withdrawing ambassadors and trying to isolate Syria diplomatically over its increasingly violent response to the 11-monnth-old popular uprising in the country. The foreign minister, Sergey V. Lavrov, was greeted by thousands of pro-government Syrians lining the capital’s streets and waving Russian flags of welcome. He pronounced his visit “very productive.” The Russian diplomatic effort came as the United States, which has bitterly criticized Russia’s stance over the Syria crisis, suggested that it may provide “humanitarian aid to Syrians” without specifying how or to whom. Russia, along with China, vetoed an Arab League-backed resolution at the United Nations Security Council on Saturday that called on President Bashar al-Assad to hand over some powers as part of a plan to defuse the crisis, which is increasingly resembling a civil war.

Former state senator Mild winter weather could running for governor shorten maple syrup season
THE CONWAY DAILY SUN, Wednesday, February 8, 2012— Page 3
MANCHESTER — Promising to protect the rights of women, gays and workers, former Democratic state Sen. Jackie Cilley announced a run for New Hampshire governor on Tuesday. The 60-year-old Barrington Democrat said she knows the value of education, having grown up in a tenement to rise to teach at the Whittemore School of Business and Economics at the University of New Hampshire for 20 years. She pointed to her grandfather, Elwood Currier, who carried a silver lunchbox to work for years at the former Brown Paper Co. in Berlin as setting an example for her on the value of work and the opportunity his work provided for his children and their children. “So, here is my commitment to you: to give you bold leadership rather than simplistic pledges; to give you candor and plain talk rather than sound bites; and to work tirelessly in the interest of the citizens of New Hampshire in a way that Elwood Currier would be proud of,” she said. Cilley said she would not take New Hampshire’s traditional pledge to veto general sales or personal income taxes. “Pledge politics is not leadership,” she said.
Cilley said the Republicans in control of the Legislature are attacking education, women, gays and public employees. She said that isn’t what New Hampshire stands for. “The Free State/Tea Party/John Birch politicians in Concord are attacking the very foundation of our traditions in the Granite State,” she said in prepared remarks. She said virtually no group has been untouched by their attacks. “Is this what New Hampshire really stands for? Is this good enough for our citizens? Can we do better than this?” she said. Cilley said she believes in compromise, but not when it fails to ensure high quality education, ensure workers’ right to collectively bargain, treat public employees with respect, protect natural resources, protect women’s abortion rights and ensure the right of same-sex couples to marry. Cilley joins former state Sen. Maggie Hassan, of Exeter, in seeking the Democratic Party’s nomination. Republicans Kevin Smith and Ovide Lamontagne also have announced bids. They hope to replace Democratic Gov. John Lynch, who is not seeking re-election. —Courtesy of WMUR

GILFORD — Mother Nature is potentially throwing a curve ball to maple producers this season. The former president of the state’s Maple Producers Association, Peter Thompson, said he has real concerns about the so far mild winter weather, saying it could force an early start to the maple season, and we could see a shorter season than normal. That could potentially raise the price of syrup if less is produced.
“I’m concerned about it. We need to have the coldness in the ground, and if you have no cover of snow and you get four to five days of high 50s and 60s, you’re going to stop it just like that,” Thompson said. According to New Hampshire maple producers, the start of the maple syrup season is around mid-February to mid-April, but Thompson said some may start tapping as early as this week. —Courtesy of WMUR
Sponsor of gay marriage repeal in N.H. holds rally at state house CONCORD — The prime sponsor of a bill to repeal New Hampshire’s gay marriage law is holding a rally to support replacing the law with civil unions for any unmarried adults, including relatives. State Rep. David Bates, a Windham Republican, is holding the Statehouse rally at noon Tuesday. His bill would not enact the same civil unions law that was in effect before gays were allowed to marry. That law granted gays all the rights
and responsibilities of marriage except in name. The proposed civil unions law would be open to any two adults and would let anyone refuse to recognize the unions. No date has been scheduled for a House vote. New Hampshire, New York, Connecticut, Iowa, Massachusetts, Vermont and the District of Columbia issue marriage licenses to same-sex couples. —Courtesy of WMUR

Free birding workshop in Sandwich Feb. 15
SANDWICH — Green Mountain Conservation Group, along with the Youth Coalition For Clean Water will host a free birding workshop from 6 to 7:30 p.m., Wednesday, Feb. 15, at Sandwich Central School. Bird enthusiast Susan Lee of the Ossipee Watershed will present information on common feeder birds as well as information about Project Feederwatch, a bird count project operated by the Cornell Lab of Ornithology and Bird Studies Canada. Project FeederWatch is a winter-long survey of birds that visit feeders at backyards, nature centers, community areas, and other locales in North America. FeederWatchers periodically count the birds they see at their feeders from November through early April and send their counts to ProjectFeeder Watch. FeederWatch data help scientists track broad scale movements of winter bird populations and long-term trends in bird distribution and abundance.
By providing this free workshop to the community Green Mountain Conservation Group and the Youth Coalition For Clean Water hope to engage the youth and families in a love for nature and the environment. Another motive for the birding workshop is to recruit more volunteers for the Great Backyard Bird Count coming up Feb. 17 to 20. The Great Backyard Bird Count is an annual four-day event that engages bird watchers of all ages in counting birds to create a realtime snapshot of where the birds are across the continent. Anyone can participate, from beginning bird watchers to experts. It takes as little as 15 minutes on one day, or you can count for as long as you like each day of the event. It’s free, fun, and easy — and it helps the birds. Participants count birds anywhere for as little or as long as they wish during the four-day period. They tally the highest number of birds of each species seen together at any one time. To report their counts, they fill out

The Great Backyard Bird Count is led by the Cornell Lab of Ornithology and National Audubon Society, with Canadian partner Bird Studies Canada and sponsorship from Wild Birds Unlimited.

Petition to save South Tamworth Post Office To the editor: The Jan. 24 U.S. Postal Service meeting about the possible closing of the South Tamworth Post Office was excellent: large turnout, many good questions. We in South Tamworth protest the closing of our Post Office and the resulting loss of community and inconvenience for all, especially older patrons. The proposed alternatives would not provide half the service we have now. And the building is a landmark, the smallest freestanding post office in New England. Jim McCartney, the postal official who led the meeting, said that to successfully block closing, we’ll need to follow U.S. Postal Service procedures, involve as many people as possible, and get the help of our elected officials. We’re off to a good start. Please sign our citizens’ petition, if you haven’t. There are copies at the South Tamworth Country Store, the North Sandwich
Store, The Other Store in Tamworth Village, and M&V Convenience in West Ossipee. Anyone can sign, not just South Tamworth Post Office boxholders. We hope many will also fill out comment sheets, available at the stores (on clipboard behind petition) and at the South Tamworth and Tamworth Post Offices (ask for it at the post offices.) There are three questions. Return the sheet to either of these post offices, or send to Jim McCartney, PO Review Board, 151 Forest Ave., Portland ME 04101. Rep. Mark McConkey attended the meeting and offered his assistance, as did a representative from Sen. Kelley Ayotte’s office. We will be contacting our other Representatives and Senators and Gov. Lynch. The comment period runs till Feb. 23. Thank you, friends and neighbors, for any and all support. Elizabeth Wiesner South Tamworth
There are slums, Fryeburg isn’t one of them To the editor: What’s in a name? Seems like a lot in Fryeburg. It is quite clear that the citizens who voted at the special meeting to pursue a $150,000 federal beautification grant were unwilling to accept the designation of slum and blight. Certainly some were willing to apply for the money and overlook the potential stigma attached to that application. While I don’t live in the village my family and I moved here in 1986 from Conway. Our move was motivated by the quality of life here. My Merriam-Webster Dictionary defines slum as a thickly
populated area marked by poverty and dirty or deteriorated houses. Having an Irish heritage I think of potatoes when the word blight is used, but the dictionary tells me that it is a deteriorated condition (urban). It is difficult to argue with the editorial position of The Conway Daily Sun. Language is important, words matter, there is a moral dimension in using language to have the end justify the means. There are slums in this country, there are areas suffering from blight. Fryeburg is not one of them. Peter O’Brien Fryeburg, Maine

Among the wonders of the Internet, Wikipedia occupies a special place. From its birth 11 years ago it has professed, and has tried reasonably hard to practice, a kind of idealism that stands out in the vaguely, artificially countercultural ambience of Silicon Valley. Google’s informal corporate mantra — “Don’t Be Evil” — has become ever more cringe-making as the company pursues its world conquest. Though Bill Gates has applied his personal wealth to noble causes, nobody thinks of Microsoft as anything but a business. I marvel at Facebook’s Mark Zuckerberg and his acolytes; but I marvel at their imagination and industry, not what the new multibillionaire described last week as their “social mission.” But Wikipedia, while it has grown something of a bureaucratic exoskeleton, remains at heart the most successful example of the public-service spirit of the wide-open Web: nonprofit, communitarian, comparatively transparent, free to use and copy, privacy-minded, neutral and civil. Like many people, I was an early doubter that a volunteer-sourced encyclopedia could be trusted, but I’m a convert. Although I find errors (a spot check of the entries for myself and my father the other day found minor inaccuracies in both, which I easily corrected), I use it more than any other Web tool except my search engines, and because I value it, I donate to its NPR-style fund-raising campaign. So as I followed the latest battle in the great sectarian war over the governing of the Internet — the attempt to curtail online piracy — I was startled to see that Wikipedia’s founder and philosopher, Jimmy Wales, who generally stays out of the political limelight, had assumed a higher profile as a combatant for the tech industry. He supplied an aura of credibility to a libertarian alliance that ranged from the money-farming Megatrons of Google to the hacker anarchists of Anonymous. Et tu, Jimmy? For those of you who have not followed this subject — or who, like me, regard phrases like “Net neutrality” as Novocain for the brain — the latest skirmish concerns the rampant online theft of songs, films, books and other content. Separate bills advancing in the House and Senate would have given the government new tools to go after digital bootleggers. The central purpose of the legislation — rather lost in the rhetorical cross-fire and press coverage — was to extend the copyright laws that already protect content-creators in the U.S. to offshore havens where the most egregious pirates have set up shop. Like most people who make their living the way I do, I think parasite Web sites should be treated with the same contempt as people who pick pockets or boost cars. But the legislation in question, drafted by the once-mighty entertainment industries, was vague and ham-handed, a case of overreach by Hollywood’s lobbyists. In the journalistic equivalent of taking a bullet for you, I read all 78 staggeringly dull pages of the House version, called SOPA. Interpreted in the most draconian way, it might have criminalized innocent sites and messed with the secure plumbing of the Internet itself. The partisans of an unfettered Internet saw their moment, and seized it. They unleashed a wave of protest that included much waving of the First Amendment and an attention-grabbing blackout of Wikipedia, the company’s most conspicuous foray into protest politics. The legislation is dead, and proponents of the open Web have shown that they are the new power in Washington. The question is, how will they use their muscle now? Does this smackdown mean that any attempt to police the Web for thievery is similarly doomed?
Jimmy Wales, when I connected with him in London, was the voice of reason compared with some members of the openness alliance. He disavows the hacker anarchists — whose most recent stunt to protest enforcement of the copyright laws was to sabotage the Justice Department Web site — as “incredibly counterproductive.” He said he believes copyright protection is “unquestionably good” but that enforcement should focus on serious criminal enterprises, not the music fan who burns a copy for a friend or the search engine that merely offers the link to a bad place. (Agreed.) He worries that, under too-sweeping legislation, a site like Wikipedia could be punished because its very informative article about the aptly named site “The Pirate Bay” includes a link to the offending destination. (That kind of prosecutorial overkill seems unlikely, but it would be appalling.) Wales thinks the current copyright protections — which require publishers, broadcasters and other content-makers to watch out for piracy of their own material and notify Internet hosts to take it down — work fine in the U.S. He grants that enforcement in foreign countries is a problem, but he opposes as burdensome and stifling any effort to make search engines or other intermediaries filter what flows through them. Wales is not endorsing legislation yet, but he had positive things to say about an alternative bill, one that has won support from some tech companies and Internet freedom groups. The so-called OPEN Act would give new powers to the International Trade Commission to issue temporary restraining orders against sites that specialize in selling bootleg copies of books, movies, TV shows and so on, and to cut off their access to the online payment processors and adplacing services that fund them. I read those 44 pages, too, and the best that can be said about the law — drafted by the improbable left-right duo of Senator Ron Wyden, an Oregon Democrat, and Representative Darrell Issa, a California Republican — is that it’s a start. An impartial copyright expert who examined the bill at my request pointed out many loopholes and ambiguities that could make enforcement cumbersome and easily evaded. And personally, I’d go beyond OPEN (and Jimmy Wales) to give the intermediaries — search engines, online sharing services — greater responsibility to police what passes through their sites, rather than obliging the victim to do all the work. “Google can remove sites from its search results for causing too much spam; why not for piracy?” said Robert Levine, whose 2011 book, “Free Ride,” is a wonderfully clear-eyed account of this colossal struggle over the future of our cultural lives. But the OPEN Act is at least something to build on, and its sponsors have indicated they are flexible. The music and motion-picture industries should be reaching out to the saner members of the tech industry to collaborate in making it better, instead of demonizing it as if it were written by Blackbeard himself. The online industry is not a monolith. Internet companies that have made fortunes building paid venues — Apple (proprietor of iTunes) and Microsoft (Xbox Live) and Netflix, among others — have been pretty quiet during the angry backlash against copyright laws. They have a financial stake in protecting intellectual property. “Basically, we need some serious reform,” Wales told me. “Everything should be on the table. But it’s not a war; it’s a giant public policy question.” see next page

Commissioners incompetently increased cost of system To the editor: I have in my possession a document promulgated by Biomass, Inc., which happens to be the company from which the county commissioners purchased the pellet boiler system used to heat the new nursing home. To ensure I was correct in my beliefs, I confronted the chair of the board of county commissioners with the documentation. I was assured it was a factual representation of the pellet boiler purchase contract. The document specifies that the sale of the pellet boiler system included: The pellet boiler, 34.4 ton pellet silo with automatic conveyance system, touch screen control system, UPS battery backup system in the event of a power outage and much more. The total cost of the complete system was quoted at $316,000. Unconditionally and emphatically the cost, as quoted, included: delivery, installation, start-up and owner training. The document further defines installation as: boiler placement and equipment assembly, silo placement and erection, fuel conveyance system installation, commissioning, start-up and fine tuning of the entire system. Notwithstanding all of the above, the commissioners deemed it necessary to advertise (at least that’s what they called it) a request for competitive bids for “the installation of the pellet boiler system.” As I understand it, it didn’t turn out to be quite as competitive as one would have liked. It was also advertised that a hearing, relative to the awarding of the contract would be conducted on the following Wednesday. However, a non-publicized meeting was held that Monday and the contract awarded. Several companies were later told their bids would not have been accepted because they had never installed a pellet boiler system. As it turns out, neither has the company awarded the contract. At a committee meeting last Monday I brought everything into the open, including the documentation ... after
some hesitation, the contractor admitted they were not hired to install the boiler as the competitive bid enumerated; rather, they were just “hooking it up.” When I introduced evidence that the original purchase price also, most explicitly, included “hooking it up,” The retort then was that they had to put some tile down, put in a door and a do few other things to prepare the sight. I met with total refusal from the commissioners when I requested a postponement of all related work until such time as the redundant contracts could be rectified. By virtue of their incompetence the commissioners have managed to increase the cost of the pellet boiler system from $316,000 to a whopping $800,000. Now we’ve been told by the very same construction company that it will cost Carroll County another $1.8 million dollars to make the old nursing home suitable for jail and nursing home visitor rentals, to move the UNH Cooperative extension from Conway to the county complex and to compete with the local real estate establishments in the “office space” rental business. I can almost guarantee it will all come to pass; it will cost a great deal more than what has been suggested, but mark my words, without an awakening ... it will all happen. Perhaps someone needs reminding that the power lies with the people and that we are required by the Constitution to act in their stead. I can tell you this. On Tuesday morning, immediately following the governor’s State of the State address, I visited the State Attorney General’s office and requested an investigation be conducted relative to the subject matter of this letter. All I can tell you is this: My documentation was accepted, copious notes were taken during my hour-plus stay and prior to leaving I was assured an investigation would be undertaken. There might still be hope. Rep Frank McCarthy, Carroll District 1 Conway
Hopefully more thought-provoking articles on the horizon To the editor: The recent guest editorials in the Feb. 1, 2012 edition of the Conway Sun entitled " If The Rule of Law Fails " by Charles Gregory Melick and "Is Banking Bad" by Nicholas Kristof were simply excellent and a pleasure to read. Hopefully many more thought-provoking articles are on the horizon. It was particularly interesting to note that Mr. Kristof was very explicit in acknowledging the benefits of leveraged buyouts by companies such as from preceding page
Ah, Jimmy, Jimmy, there’s the rub. These days in Washington, everything is a war. This is a complicated subject that has been turned into simplistic sloganeering by rival vested interests dressed up as the saviors of freedom. When the founders enshrined free speech in the Constitution, they did not mean “free” in the sense of Wikipedia. As Justice Sandra Day O’Connor wrote in an important 1985 Supreme Court decision supporting intellectual property rights: “the Framers intended copyright itself to be the engine of free expression. By estab-
Bain Capital, the aim being to make poorly-run companies more efficient and resell them at a profit, the net result being to provide more secure jobs for employees At times there are layoffs but more often, as the economy improves, new employees are added to the payroll. Nice when someone as knowledgeabe as Mr. Kristof provides accurate information. Morton Leavitt Ossipee lishing a marketable right to the use of one’s expression, copyright supplies the economic incentive to create and disseminate ideas.” Content-makers would be crazy to let the Internet be stunted as a force for invention, mobilization and shared wisdom. It’s the sea we all swim in. At the same time, online companies would be crazy to let piracy kill off the commerce that supplies quality material upon which even free sites like Wikipedia depend.

RAMSEY from page one
On the night of the attack, Dec. 13, 2010, the victim said she planned to have a relaxing evening with Ramsey and her dog at his West Side Road apartment in North Conway. At the time, she was getting over a cold and he offered to cook dinner for her. After dinner, she took a bath and changed into her pajamas. It was then a small argument got out of control. During the argument, the victim said she went back into the bathroom to change into her street clothes in preparation to leave the apartment. It was then he allegedly trapped her in the bathroom, choked her with his hands, beat her and gagged her with her own curling iron. She recalled being beaten while her body was perpendicular to the bathtub. Over the course of the week following the attack, the victim said Ramsey was constantly texting her. Sometimes he was angry while other times he was attempting to apologize or curious if she was going to call police. She finally called police nine days after the attack when she allegedly got a text from Ramsey stating he should have "finished what he started last week." During cross-examination on Tuesday morning, public defender Howard Clayman got the victim to admit she smoked marijuana after dinner and prior to the attack. She also admitted denying drug use when she went to Dartmouth-Hitchcock for an examination after the alleged attack. "I didn't think of it when she asked me," the victim responded to Clayman's question about her visit to
DAVISON from page one
most of the 23 pages of letters regarding Davison should be public by next week. The letters were from members of the public to school officials. The ruling was the result of a case filed against the school by The Conway Daily Sun late last year. The Sun learned about the letters from former school board members while researching a September incident that resulted in Davison being banned from Berlin school ground following a soccer game. The Sun requested copies of the letters under the state’s Right To Know law, which requires governing bodies like schools and municipalities to conduct their business in public. The school refused, citing Davison’s privacy concerns. The Sun took the school to court, arguing a school official at a school event on school grounds could is not protected the same way as a private citizen. The school, represented by attorney John Teague of Upton and Hatfield, and Cowles, representing Davison, argued Davison was not acting in his official capacity at games and was therefore not subject to the law. Cowles also argued the school was simply holding the documents, or “warehousing” them, and therefore they don’t fit the definition of official documents and are not subject to disclosure. In late December superior court Judge Steven Houran, who heard the case, said he could not reach a deci-
Dartmouth-Hitchcock. "Marijuana isn't really a drug, per se. It didn't cross my mind." Further, the victim said she used the curling iron about three more times before turning it over to the police. “I’m vain and I wanted to look good,” the victim explained. She also clarified that Ramsey wasn't really screaming at the beginning of the attack. Rather he was speaking in a stern tone. The victim's boss testified that he saw the victim on Dec. 16. He said the victim seemed unusually withdrawn. He added he could barely understand what she was saying because her voice was so soft. There were bruises on her neck. "She was unusually quiet and restrained," he said. He said he advised her to call the police on Dec. 16 but she didn't call police until days later. Ramsey's former neighbor testified she couldn't recall if she was home at the time of the alleged attack. She testified that sound travels easily in her apartment building and that she hadn't heard any unusual noises that would cause her to call police around the time of the attack. A witness who knows Ramsey through a former job testified that Ramsey was nervous about the charges. He said Ramsey told him he was facing charges for grabbing his girlfriend by the throat and slapping her. The witness said Ramsey was particularly worried that the charges could be bumped up to attempted murder. The trial resumes Wednesday at 11:30 a.m.
sion without reviewing the documents himself. The letters were delivered to the court under seal in mid-January. His final ruling was written two weeks later, and the clerk of the court sent it out last week. “Upon review of the documents,” Houran said in his order, “the court determines that the school district did more than simply receive and warehouse information. The documents show that the information was forwarded from administrator to administrator and was subject to internal discussions among administrators, and the documents show at least two instances that they resulted in discussions by school administrators directly with Mr. Davison.” “These are government activities,” Houran goes on to say, “and, at least in the context of Mr. Davison’s dual status as not only a private citizen who is the parent of a student but also a member of the school board appearing at school facilities or events, tips the balance in favor of disclosure.” Not every word in the 23 pages, however, is slated to be released. “There are significant privacy rights of third parties, particularly students, which would be violated should the documents be disclosed without redaction,” the order says. There are also portions of the documents the district can redact because they are outside the scope of the Right to Know request. The judge gave all parties 10 days to ask for reconsideration, otherwise the ruling will stand. Davison did not return a call for comment.

School budget passes budget committee's initial review BY LLOYD JONES THE CONWAY DAILY SUN
CONWAY — Members of the Municipal Budget Committee appear pleased with the budget school officials have brought forward for 2012-13. They had only a handful of questions when they met last week with superintendent Carl Nelson and his administrative team. "I think overall they did a pretty good job with the budget," Karen Umberger, of the 17-member budget committee, said during a two-hour meeting in the Professional Development Center at Kennett Middle School last Wednesday. "They've made some progress." Thanks to some persistent negotiations, the school district will get a substantial break on its health insurance premiums for the 2012-13 school year. Nelson informed the Conway School Board that insurance rates have been revised, bringing the proposed school budget down an additional $550,017. The new proposed budget figure is $31,901,212, which is $1,138,630 less than the previous year's $33,039,842. The total does not include 22 warrant articles that total over $1.5 million. The estimated tax rate, excluding separate special articles, is $10.55 per $1,000 of property valuation, representing a decrease of 69 cents per $1,000 of property valuation from the previous year. Nelson projected if all of the warrant articles were to be voter approved, it would represent an overall tax increase of 44 cents per $1,000 of property valuation, raising the tax rate to $11.37 per $1,000 of property valuation or a 1.17 percent increase.
Umberger did have a question about a warrant article seeking funding for a sous chef position at Kennett High. The position was previously funded through a Carl Perkins federal grant which is no longer available. The article seeks $35,498 to 70 percent fund the position while the remaining 30 percent would be generated through funds raised at the school's Mineral Springs Cafe. "What does this mean for next year, why is it so important?" Umberger asked. Lori Babine, director of the MWV Career and Technical Center, explained the sous chef position was funded initially by a Perkins grant for three years and then she was able to get a one-year extension which the district can no longer apply for. The initial intent was for revenue from the Mineral Springs Cafe to cover the position, but that has not happened and in all likelihood will not. The cafe, site of the culinary arts program under the umbrella of the MWV Career and Technical Center at Kennett High School, is thriving. Now in its fifth year, the program has become so popular that there's actually a student waiting list to take the course. The school board last year spring was considering a warrant article seeking $28,700 (half of the employee's salary and benefits package), representing an additional 2 cents per $1,000 valuation, but did not have to go that route. Nelson informed the board last March the district was receiving a federal grant for over $100,000, and that money can be used to fund positions such as the sous chef. Babine told budgeteers the student-
run restaurant is only open three days a week for 90 minutes at a time. The restaurant has been able to increase its revenues by expanding its commercial catering along with providing dinner to Eagle Academy students through a grant the district received. Babine said the restaurant would need to be open five days a week for more than 90 minutes at a time to approach the funds needed. "It's difficult to get the hours up there," she said. "We're not a full-service restaurant, we're a learning lab." Currently the culinary program is run by Richard Mattei, who oversees the culinary program, and he is assisted by sous chef Tim Remillard in the kitchen. "The sous chef is a mentor," Babine said. "The second person has allowed us to increase the enrollment in the program. If we only had one set of eyes it would not allow us to function as we do." Umberger wondered if revenue at the cafe picked up, could that go to offset future costs. "If we are able schedule differently or pick up more business, it could go to offset the salary," Nelson said. Mike DiGregorio, selectmen's representative to the budget committee, supports the sous chef position. "If anybody paid any attention to
what they do up there, it's a phenomenal program," he said. "I personally know of a ton of kids who have gone through that program. The program isn't just teaching kids how to wait on tables, but how to manage a restaurant. It is definitely teaching kids. I'd encourage you all to go up there, spend some time and you'll appreciate the program." There are few important dates on the budget calendar. * Feb. 15: The municipal budget committee hearing on the school budget will be held in the Loynd Auditorium at Kennett High School at 7 p.m. following the precincts and town budget hearings which begin at 6 p.m. * Feb. 16: The budget committee will vote on the school, town and precinct budgets in the Conway Professional Development Center at 6:30 p.m. • Feb. 22: The filing period for town and school offices begins and runs through March 2 at 5 p.m. at Conway Town Hall. * March 5: The deliberative session of Conway School District annual meeting will be held in the Loynd Auditorium at Kennett High at 7 p.m. * On April 10, the voting portion of Conway School District annual meeting will take place at the Conway Community Building in Center Conway from 8 a.m. to 7 p.m.

Micro-managing or just asking tough questions? BY LLOYD JONES THE CONWAY DAILY SUN
CONWAY — Micro-managing or simply wanting more details? That's where two members of the Municipal Budget Committee differed last week when discussing the proposed 2012-13 school budget. First-year budget committee member Kelly DeFeo thought her colleagues were going a little too in-depth with school officials, to the point they were micro-managing. Micro-managing is defined by Wikipedia as "a management style where a manager closely observes or controls the work of his or her subordinates or employees." Kennett Middle School principal Kevin Richard was explaining a proposed school warrant article that seeks $98,000 to return to a four-team teaching approach at his school rather than go to three teams. A reduction in teams would mean a reduction in staff costs, but some school board members are concerned that the quality of education would be compromised. Some budgeteers were having a difficult time grasping how a move from three to four teams would only represent a $98,000 increase. Richard explained that going to three teams, he would have to cut four teachers for math, science, language arts and social studies, but if the district goes that route he said there would be a need to hire an additional reading teacher as well as a special education teacher to help with the increased class sizes. In essence, the net deduction in staffing would be a reduction of two teachers. The issue came before the Conway School Board's
budget committee in December and has been raised due to a continuing decline in student enrollment, with a projected 289 middle school students next year. Richard said somehow there has been a misconception that he is advocating to move from four to three teams. That's not the case, he said. Richard explained he conceded a few years ago that when enrollment got down to 300 students that it might be time to look at a cut, but he thinks the fourteam approach is paying educational dividends. "Somehow or somewhere that became a lightning rod," he said. "When the question was asked, 'when do you look at restructuring,' I said 300. Because I didn't reduce from four to three teams doesn't mean I haven't looked at reducing costs while still providing a quality education. "The biggest difference you will see from four to three teams will be the significant increase in class sizes," Richard added. DeFeo voiced her displeasure that Richard, who spoke for about 25 minutes, was being grilled by budget committee members. "They're showing us the money, which is what this committee is looking for," she said. "You're micro-managing — this is bull crap. This is micro-managing of the schools." Committee chairman David Sordi immediately cut DeFeo off. "We're asking questions we feel are budgetary in nature," he said. "No we are not micro-managing. We're trying to understand how (Richard and the Conway School Board) came up with the reduction of a team." "I understood it completely last year and I understand it now," DeFeo replied.
AARP offering tax help in four Carroll County locations CONWAY — The American Association of Retired Persons is offering free tax help to low- and middleincome taxpayers of any age. Locally, the tax help is being offered at four points in Carroll County. Call any of the following locations to set up an appointment: Ossipee Public Library, 539-6390; Moultonborough Library, 476-8895; Gafney Library, in Wakefield, 522-3097 and the Gibson Center in North Conway 356-3231. Last year, the four Carroll County locations filed over 600 federal income tax returns. AARP needs the following tax-related documents when you come in to have your tax return prepared:

who lives in Fryeburg and is the junior class president, said Tuesday. "I brought up the idea one time at a meeting with her and she really liked the idea. All girls have dresses that they're not going to wear again and we thought it would be neat to have them benefit someone else. After Miss Smith's passing, I decided to put it together." "Michelle is a wonderful girl," Rachel Andrews Damon, director of public relations and annual giving at Fryeburg Academy, said. "She's a very compassionate girl who loves her school and loves the faculty here. This sort of project is right up her alley." Boucher has printed up and distributed fliers around town and on the school campus seeking to get the word out. "Do you have a gently worn formal or semi-formal dress you’d like to donate?" the flier states. "Drop it off at Fryeburg Academy’s Performing Arts Center from Monday, Feb. 6, to Friday, Feb. 10, from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. or at St. Elizabeth Ann Seton Catholic Church on Saturday, Feb. 11 from 10-11:30 a.m. "Do you need a dress for eighth-grade semi-formal, winter carnival or prom?" it continues. "Come to St. Elizabeth Ann Seton Catholic Church on Saturday Feb. 11, from 12 to 4 p.m. and pick one out! A $5 donation is recommended but not mandatory. All proceeds go directly to the Jackie Smith Fund." Boucher and Damon said "gently worn" dresses
Social Security numbers/cards for yourself and all dependents; W-2 forms from each employer; unemployment compensation statements; all forms 1099 including Social Security, banks, brokerage, pensions and such; if you have a 1099-B, AARP needs documentation showing the original purchase price of the assets you sold; all forms indicating Federal Income Tax withheld or paid; child-care provider information (name, employer ID, Social Security numbers); all receipts or canceled checks if itemizing deductions; if possible a copy of last year’s tax return; a copy of last year’s property tax bill; and a blank check to get routing and account numbers from for direct deposit would be welcome for the donation. The dresses will be geared to girls from eighth through 12th grade. "We need all sizes," Boucher said. "If we could get 100 dresses that would be awesome." With Fryeburg Academy's annual Winter Carnival semi-formal dance on the horizon on March 2 and prom in May and the Molly Ockett Middle School holding its semi-formal at the end of the school year in June, Boucher said this is the time families are looking for dresses and some could use a helping hand. "This is a really good way to recycle," Damon said and then explained a little about the Jackie Smith Fund. "It's an emergency fund for students in need — that's who Jackie was, she was always there for kids in need. She was a very popular member of our faculty who helped a lot o0f generations of kids." Smith, who died on Dec. 22 after a courageous seven-month battle with cancer, worked for 13 year at Fryeburg Academy as a director of the transition program and a college counselor. While she was working at the academy she earned her master's degree in counseling and continued to expand her education. Smith was very involved and loved working at the academy and she thought of everyone there as her second family. This Dress Drive is open to all MSAD 72 students. "If this goes really well we hope to continue to do it before all of the (major) dances," Boucher said.

TAX TIME
My mother moved in last year; can I get a tax break? BY DAVID F. BROCHU, CFP I have received great feedback and appreciate the comments. Since these articles began two weeks ago I have been receiving questions. I thought I would begin to share them with readers. Q: My elderly mother was no longer able to take care of herself and moved into my home in May of 2011. Her only source of income is Social Security benefits. Can I claim her as a dependent on my tax return, and what breaks do I receive? This is a question that seems to be coming up more and more recently, possibly due to the aging population and rising costs of care from third parties. There are four tests that need to be considered in order to claim someone (keep in mind it has to be a human, no pets allowed) as a dependent on your tax return. The individual must be related to you or, if not related, lived with you for the entire year. The IRS is pretty generous in its definition of a relative; you may be surprised what qualifies. Since your mother is clearly related she meets this test. Brian G. Kelsch The individual must have gross income less than $3,700 for 2011. Gross income for this purpose does not include income normally excluded on tax returns such as Social Security benefits or tax-exempt interest. You must also provide over half of the individual’s financial support during the calendar year. This calculation can get little tricky. Your support of your mother would include the fair rental value of the lodging you provided to her from May to December, plus food, clothing, medical care, transportation costs, contributions, entertainment, recreation, and other items attributed to supporting her. Normally, social security benefits alone would not amount to half of the total of these expenses. You would need to consider this calculation, but I surmise your mother meets this test for the dependency exemption. The last test is that the potential dependent is not a qualifying child of any other taxpayer during the year. Obviously this is not an issue in this situation, but bring it up for others in considering their potential dependents. In summary your mother is related, you provide at least one half of her financial support; she does not have gross income over $3,700, and is not a child of another taxpayer. Based on these facts you can claim her as a dependent. A sign that life really does come full circle. The tax benefits of claiming your mother in 2011 are generally an additional $3,700 reduction of your taxable income on your return, possible inclusion of her medical expenses as a deduction, and other tax breaks of expenses related to dependents. Please remember these are general rules and you should always speak with your trusted advisers about your particular situation. Q: If an accountant’s wife cannot sleep, what does she say?

Fighting the 'daffodil' principle There’s plenty of snow for skiers at local ski resorts. (JAMIE GEMMITI PHOTO)
Promotional campaign reminds people in southern New England that there’s snow on the trails and slopes of New Hampshire even if there isn’t any in their back yards BY TOM EASTMAN THE CONWAY DAILY SUN
CONCORD — With the so-called “Backyard Principle” very much still in play, and with the all-important February vacation week soon here, Ski NH and the state Office of Tourism and Travel Development have teamed up to launch a $70,000 promotional campaign to remind people that despite the lack of snow in urban markets of southern New England, there is plenty of snow on the ski slopes, ski touring trail and snowmobile trails of New Hampshire this challenging winter. With Super Bowl weekend come and gone, ski areas are looking to capitalize on the upcoming weeks, leading up to February vacation week, Feb. 18-26. Although temperatures have remained above average for much of the season, Mother Nature has been more cooperative in recent weeks, depositing more natural snow to add to the bases laid by snowmakers at alpine resorts and to create good conditions at ski touring centers in the White Mountains. Now the goal is to let those down south more aware of that. “The spots are airing Feb. 6 through 19,” said Lori Harnois, director of the state's OTTD. “It's intended to remind folks that while they may not have snow in their back yards [down south], we do have snow in New Hampshire, and that there is plenty to do, on and off the slopes.” She said the campaign will consist of 437 spots that will air on five of the top radio stations in Boston, as well as on-line spots on www.visitnh.gov. Karl Stone, marketing director for Ski NH, said the campaign is intended to convince people to come north to ski and ride. “We will be providing some video graphics to show people skiing,” said Stone. The timing is key. “We always say that February vacation week — combined with Christmas Week and Martin Luther King Jr. Holiday Weekend — accounts for up to 30 percent of our business for the year. So, it's vital — especially

given the slow start to the season this year [given the lack of natural snow in much of the country, including much of southern New England],” said Stone Feb. 6. He said with recent snowfall, combined with the earlier snowmaking, areas are making up some ground. see SNOW page 12

“Ski areas in the state are seeing their business levels rising, which is helping to make up for the slow start. Christmas week was good, given the slow start,” said Stone. State ski biz off 20 to 40 percent Stone estimates that business in terms of skier visits has been off in the range of 20 to 40 percent from last year — but he said keep in mind that last year was the third best ever. He said in addition to a strong promotional campaign being conducted by the state and Ski NH, obviously the biggest push would come from a major snow storm in coming weeks, not only in ski country but in the urban areas of New England. “I would love to see a big storm in Massachusetts — that would get them on the roads, heading north. But people are starting to get the message that the skiing and riding is pretty good,” said Stone, crediting the work of snowmakers as well as recent snow storms in ski country. They have not been blizzards, but they have added up, improving conditions especially at ski touring centers. Crawford: Fighting the ‘daffodil’ principle In Mount Washington Valley, Janice Crawford, executive director of the Mount Washington Valley Chamber of Commerce, agreed that the additional efforts by the state and Ski NH will be a bonus to existing programs being done by those organizations as well as by the chamber and local ski areas. “I was in Plymouth, Mass., last weekend, and their daffodils were coming up,” said Crawford, adroitly hitting the problem on the nail of the head — namely how

Year Round • Vacation • Waterfront • Condos • Residential • Commercial
to convince skiers that there is plenty of snow in the mountains, regardless of what they see (or don't see) back home. Crawford said the chamber is continuing its weekly e-mail snow report updates to the media and meteorologists, showing ski photographs and videos from local areas. “We are sending our weekly e-news of the snow, and our web traveler pushes the skiing, too, along with our regular bulks mails and all the other things we do with the state's website, PR in general and Facebook, so we keep plugging the message,” said Crawford. Asked how businesses were faring in the valley this season, Crawford said she could only report anecdotally. “I have heard some have been pleased, especially those properties that have other things to do such as water parks,” said Crawford. “But I think a lot of people have been struggling to some extent because of the lack of snow, or the perception of the lack of snow. All we can do is to keep pushing the message — and with February vacation week coming up, what the state is doing with Ski NH is much appreciated in conjunction with our e-mail blasts and Facebook.” She said with February vacation week, she believes that families plan on coming for the most part, whether there is snow or not, as the valley has so many things to do, on and off the slopes. “But again, getting back to those daffodils — maybe they will come and see the snow here, despite the daffodils in their back yard, so that maybe next year and in years to come, they will know that no matter what they see back home, there is snow in the mountains. see SNOW page 14

SNOW from page 12
Again, kudos to the snowmakers,” said Crawford. Perkins: Ski touring down only slightly Thom Perkins, executive director of the non-profit Jackson Ski Touring Foundation, now celebrating its 40th season, said Tuesday that despite a challenging start in December, things have been on the up-and-up for several weeks now. Yet even in Jackson, which posts new updated photos of conditions and skiers, it's not always easy convincing people down south that yes, Virginia, there really is a winter going on here in the White Mountains. “We post the videos and shots, and yet we still had someone call the other day to say they saw the photos, but do we really have any snow?” said Perkins Tuesday. He said skier day figures are up 21 percent over last year — which also was a challenging year at the start. “The numbers are small but we're on the positive side of last year,” said Perkins, who rated the skiing as“brilliant” in Jackson. “I think the state's efforts to provide more exposure is great, both for the man-made snow for alpine and the natural snow for cross-country skiing — in isolated pockets like Mount Washington Valley, the skiing has been very good,” he said.
Doug Garland of Bear Notch Ski Touring and Snowshoe Center agreed that the valley in particular has benefited by being in bit of a snow belt compared to much of the rest of the state this season. “We now just have to get the word out, which is what we have been trying to do. We have some excellent skiing with 60k open and grooming on 45k,” said Garland Tuesday. Ben Wilcox of Cranmore Mountain Resort, Dan Houde of King Pine and Thomas Prindle of Attitash and Wildcat shared Perkins' and Garland's assessments. “We are tracking behind, definitely, and the month of February is always critical to us as we are at the 45 percent mark of the season,” said Wilcox. “But several of our categories are tracking ahead. I would say our ski side figures are off 20 percent, but our non-ski activities are tracking at 10 percent off, which is really not that bad.” He said Christmas week was off “15 to 18 percent,” but acknowledged that Cranmore's investment in nonski activities such as tubing, a giant swing, a mountain coaster and an indoor family adventure zone had shown dividends. “With snow on the ground, and the Super Bowl behind us,” said Wilcox, “now there's no excuse for people not to come, and we are optimistic. We hope
that people will understand that our snowmakers have been very aggressive, and we are hoping that this and next weekend leading up to February vacation week will be strong.” He said March could also be a strong month. “I'm an eternal optimist,” said Wilcox, “and although the last few Marches have been off, if we got some snow that would improve morale for skiers everywhere and we could get a strong month. Skiers know that spring skiing and March are always one of the best times to ski. So, the season is far from over.” Likewise, Prindle of Attitash and Wildcat have shown strong ski weeks since the challenging start. “Since that time, Attitash Mountain Resort and Wildcat Mountain are positioned well and have made up significant ground and are now approaching a point in which skier visits are only slightly behind where we were this time last year. With the most up-to-date season total skier visit numbers that I do have, it was only 3 percent off from this time last season,” said Prindle Monday. “To have gained much of the early season’s stalled start back, to me, is a good sign because I feel like we are now carrying some positive momentum having seen several weeks now in which the majority of weeksee next page

I would love to have an opportunity unhindered by any remarkable weather event allow us to continue to gain ground and be strong for the upcoming vacation weeks,” said Prindle. “There is plenty of season left to make up for what was a start to a not all that unusual New England snow season,” said Prindle. King Pine's Houde was also upbeat. “Comparatively speaking,” he said of the family-owned and operated East Madison resort, “our numbers have been right where they should be in the last few weeks. As the season progresses we're seeing more and more skiers and winter enthusiast coming up to enjoy the snow. I think word is getting out and they're slowly discovering that there's plenty of great snow conditions in the region. King Pine and Purity Spring have all winter activities in full force and we're seeing nothing but great big smiles on everyone.”
Berry: ‘Uneven year nationally’ Michael Berry, president of the National Ski Areas Association based in Lakewood, Colo., said in an interview from the group's national meeting at Killington, Vt., Monday, that the year has been “uneven” nationally. “I think people have wanted to paint a picture of it being worse than it is,” Berry told The Conway Daily Sun. “This year has been complicated, but it's not as though as it's the first time it's happened, but you have to go way back to the late 1970s. The impact to the ski industry is that we will be down a little in skier days,” said Berry, “but I think it's too early to say, because we have the critical February vacation week yet to come. We are coming off a record year last year with the most skier days ever — we will not see that, but at the end of the day I think a lot of ski areas [nationally] will see this as a year where we retrench, and look at their snowmaking systems and try to evaluate where they may need some improvements. So, I think a year like this is good, because people will be looking at their snowmaking, and consider the improvements, the third generation of snowmaking, they can undertake to be more efficient and be more environmentally friendly.”

Richard Scott Mowrer
TAMWORTH — Richard Scott Mowrer, 100, retired foreign correspondent, died Sunday, Jan. 22, 2012 at his home in Chocorua. Mowrer served as overseas correspondent for the Chicago Daily News, as well as freelance correspondent for the Christian Science Monitor, St. Louis Post-Dispatch and more than 30 other newspapers throughout the United States, Europe and the Middle East during his 40 years of reporting. Mowrer was the son of Winifred Adams Mowrer and Paul Scott Mowrer, Pulitzer-prize-winning correspondent and editor of the Chicago Daily News, and later in life, Poet Laureate of New Hampshire. Richard Mowrer began his journalism career alongside his uncle, Edgar Ansel Mowrer, also an awardwinning correspondent and author. Mowrer served as a reporter in Spain during Spanish Civil War and during Franco’s rule; he witnessed the Nazi invasion of Poland at the start of World War II, traveled with the RAF Eighth Army to cover the North African campaign and with the Western Allies for the invasion of Sicily against the Axis. During his career, he was expelled from Italy by Mussolini, escaped the Russians who held him prisoner in Poland and survived bombings in Egypt and Israel during the war. After Richard Mowrer’s retirement in 1976, he continued to write editorials, some published in the Manchester Union Leader, and wrote private memoirs of his childhood in Paris, his experience as a cub reporter in the Spanish Civil War, and shortly before his death, completed his World War II memoirs titled “Onlooker: A Reporter in Wartime 1939-1945.” His wife, Elizabeth Mowrer, predeceased him in 2002. He is survived by his brother, David Mowrer; stepson, Tom Morales and his wife, Karen; stepdaughter, Andrea Adams; and two grandchildren, Zachary Morales and Sara Kosek. The family is grateful for the care provided by the staff of Memorial Hospital, Tamworth Community Nurse Association and his friends and caregivers. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the Tamworth Community Nurse Association. Estate Liquidations & Appraisals Serving all of New England

Sweetheart dinner at Rescue Barn Feb. 14 Winter is always a dreary time of year but for the Parmenters, Penny and Kenneth, of Fryeburg this is a particularly bad winter for them. Both have very serious health problems and because of these problems aren’t able to work. Penny, who has been a member of the Fryeburg Rescue for 17 years, has a life threatening illness that decreases the flow of blood to the heart. Together with other chronic problems her outlook isn’t that great. Kenny had a work related accident in which he lost most of one his hand. He is facing operation number four on that hand. In the mean time unable to work his many trips to Mass General in Boston is costly. A family member seeing a need has organized a Silent Auction to be held at the St. Elizabeth Ann Seton Church located at 857 Main Street Fryeburg Maine on Feb. 18, from 4 to 7 p.m. If there is anyone who would like to donate you can contact (207) 2567363.

Money raised by the event will go toward the purchase of two Automated External Defibrillators for the Saco Valley Fire Department and the Brownfield Fire Department The entry fee for the Lion’s Club third annual ice fishing derby is $10 not $15 as I wrote in last weeks column. I guess I was thinking of all the good work the Lions Club does like the scholarships awarded at graduation. Anyone wanting to take part on Feb. 18 and 19 can fish any lake or pond in Oxford County. To pre-register contact Cliff Hill at (207) 928-3744 or sign up at AJ’s in Stoneham.

There will be free pizza and Miss Liz just might have an interesting penguin craft for those who would like to take part. Any children or adults who would like to attend should sign up before 11 am that Friday morning so that there will be enough pizza ordered. What a fun way to spend a winter’s night.

It’s an afternoon of delights and visiting with neighbors and friends plus helping the Library raise money so the library can continue great programs.

Night at the Opera features ‘Mikado’ Do you believe that it is February already? You know how I love snow and have been so disappointed with all the rain and ice this winter. I sometimes say, “Is there ever enough snow?” Well, I have met my match. A lovely couple from Alaska was in having lunch at the Eaton Village Store last week, and I was moaning and groaning about no snow. Where they live in Alaska, they have gotten 26 feet of snow! Now, even I think that is too much. The snow is up to people’s rooftops, and the building next to the one where they store their boat, collapsed completely. So, OK, 26 feet is way too much, but could I have 3 or 4 feet? There will be a puppet show at the Conway Public Library, offered by the White Mountain Waldorf School on Saturday, Feb. 11, from 11 to 11:30 a.m. The simplicity and calmness of puppet play allows the children to follow the story step by step; it stimulates their fantasy and strengthens their life forces. Bring your children to this fun event. Sandy Thoms will be offering a couples (or significant others) Spontaneous Cooking Class on Monday, Feb. 13 from 6 to 8 p.m. These classes are loads of fun and you learn so many tips to good cooking. Just think, you can make it for your spouse the next night for Valentine’s Day (or maybe go out). The class costs $40 a couple. Sandy is a terrific chef and she makes everything fun. Call her at 447-3417. Don’t forget the Night at the Opera featuring Sullivan’s “The Mikado” at the Inn at Crystal Lake next week on Thursday, Feb. 16. This is a masterpiece from
the world of operettas, with lots of witty lyrics to keep you alert. I imagine there will be great Japanese food, too, as the meal always complements the opera. The cost of $55 per person includes discussions and demonstrations, a four-course dinner and a glass of wine. Other alcohol, tax and gratuity are not included. There is always live singing by Tim Ostendorf and his musical friends. These dinners are always outstanding with the best food ever. Try one! If you’re in the mood to laugh, I’ve got the perfect fundraiser for you. The Mount Washington Valley Ski Team is hosting Comedy Night with Bob Marley on Saturday, Feb. 18, at 6:30 p.m. at the Attitash Grand Summit Hotel in Bartlett. They will have live and silent auctions, heads and tails games, a cash bar, and light appetizers. The ticket sales will be limited, so buy now at $50 each. Support Valley Alpine Ski Racers and Alpine Racing. You can call 356-7627 for more information or to get tickers. Also you may go on line: www. brownpapertikets.com/event/214684 or skiteam@ roadrunner.com or mwvskiteam.com. Peggy Wescott has chocolate hearts for your favorite valentine, and she will be taking orders. The chocolate candies come in these flavors: plain, raspberry, cherry, rose, and peppermint. A quarter-pound bag is $6 and a half-pound bag is $10. Her Motomo Gallery at the four corners in the middle of Eaton Center is not “open” in the winter, but she always has chocolates and you can order some for your sweetie. Give her a call at 4471138. Happy Valentine’s Day to you all!

BY LLOYD JONES THE CONWAY DAILY SUN
CONWAY — The Kennett High hockey team enjoyed a brief stop at home Monday night and continued its winning ways much to the delight of a modest sized crowd at the Ham Ice Arena. The Eagles scored eight second period goals, including three short-handed to top the visiting Cougars of Kearsarge 9-0. The win lifted Kennett to 11-0 and keeps them atop the Division III standings heading into an important upcoming stretch of road games. The Eagles are scheduled to play their final two road games of the regular season over the next 10 days. They play No. 4 Hollis/Brookline (9-4) on Saturday and then play at No. 2 Alvirne (11-0) on on Feb. 15. “Saturday will be a real test for us,” Michael Lane, Eagles’ head coach, said. “Historically, we haven’t played well down in their building. I’m hoping it’s a different year and we’re a different team and we can change that. …Hollis/Brookline is pretty balanced and they probably one of if not the hardest working teams in the division. They make you work for everything.” Lane was pleased with the effort from the troops on Monday. “It was nice to be home even if was just briefly,” he said, smiling. “It was a good win — the kids came to play and worked hard.” Goalie John Bishop picked up his league leading sixth shutout while turning away all 16 shots that came his way. “It’s important to keep Bish fresh and on top of his game,” Lane said. “We have a number of important games coming up and are going to need him and the defense on top of their games.” Kennett took the lead with 4:38 to play in the opening period. Connor Todd scored the first of his four goals on the night on a backdoor feed from Kevin Murphy for what proved to be the game-winner. The Eagles out-shot the Cougars 12-5 in the first period, but had just the one goal advantage going into the second frame. James Gallo, who also scored a hat-trick in the contest, lit the lamp three minutes into the second period with an assist from Chris King. Two minutes later, Gallo scored again, this time shorthanded from Todd. With 8:13 left in the period, Murphy made it 4-0 from Todd and King. Just eight seconds later Todd scored an unassisted shorthanded goal to make it 5-0 prompting Kearsarge to take a timeout to try to stem the tide.
FA’s playoff hopes hit snag FRYEBURG — The Fryeburg Academy girls’ basketball team entered the week just one slot out of the preliminary game position. A win or a sweep would have put them in position to claim a spot the last week of the season. Losing both games likely put the Raiders in a must-win situation for the last two games, if they have any hope for a post-season appearance at all. The Raiders hosted Freeport on Tuesday, and the traveling team showed no signs of needing to adapt to the Fryeburg gym as they nailed six three-pointers in the first half while taking a 35-11 lead on their way to a 59-48 victory.. The Raiders closed the game out well outscoring Freeport 27-13 in the fourth quarter, but by that time the game was already determined. Skye Dole led the Raider comeback and had 21 points for Fryeburg. McConkey scored 8 points and Fox added 7 for the Raiders. On Friday the Raiders played Gray-New Gloucester, a solid playoff team, well for the first half. They trailed 24-22, and Fryeburg was in position to upset the Patriots. The Gray girls had no intention of letting this game slip away, however, and they ran off 26 points in the third period while holding the Raiders to 7 to take a 50-29 lead on way to a 60-40 final score. Skye Dole had 12 points for Fryeburg; Fox netted 8.
It didn’t work. Eleven seconds later Todd struck again to make it 6-0 for his hat-trick. With 7:19 remaining in the second Gallo completed his hat-trick off a feed from King. Dillon Smith upped the lead to 8-0 with 6:39 to play in the period from Murphy and Dane Rivera. Todd closed out the scoring with the third shorthanded goal of the night from Matt Kelly with 4:35 to play in the period.
“It’s nice to get the win, like I said, and it’s nice to have a few days to really focus on Saturday’s game,” Lane said. Division III standings as of Tuesday were Kennett, 11-0; Alvirne, 11-0; Pelham-Windham, 9-2; Hollis/ Brookline, 9-4; Belmont-Gilford, 8-4; Souhegan, 8-4-1; Portsmouth, 6-6; Somersworth, 5-5; Moultonborough/ Interlakes, 6-6; Pembroke-Campbell, 6-6; John Stark/ Hopkinton, 4-8; Manchester West, 2-10; ConVal, 0-9-1; Kearsarge, 0-9; and Laconia-Winnisquam, 0-11.

THE CONWAY DAILY SUN, Wednesday, February 8, 2012— Page 19
Today is Wednesday, Feb. 8, the 39th day of 2012. There are 327 days left in the year. Today’s Highlight in History: On Feb. 8, 1587, Mary, Queen of Scots was beheaded at Fotheringhay Castle in England after she was implicated in a plot to murder her cousin, Queen Elizabeth I. On this date: In 1693, a charter was granted for the College of William and Mary in Williamsburg in the Virginia Colony. In 1837, the Senate selected the vice president of the United States, choosing Richard Mentor Johnson after no candidate received a majority of electoral votes. In 1862, the Civil War Battle of Roanoke Island, N.C, ended in victory for Union forces led by Gen. Ambrose E. Burnside. In 1904, the Russo-Japanese War, a conflict over control of Manchuria and Korea, began as Japanese forces attacked Port Arthur. In 1910, the Boy Scouts of America was incorporated. In 1922, President Warren G. Harding had a radio installed in the White House. In 1942, during World War II, Japanese forces began invading Singapore, which fell a week later. In 1952, Queen Elizabeth II proclaimed her accession to the British throne following the death of her father, King George VI. In 1968, three college students were killed in a confrontation with highway patrolmen in Orangeburg, S.C., during a civil rights protest against a whites-only bowling alley. In 1971, NASDAQ, the world’s first electronic stock exchange, held its first trading day. In 1989, 144 people were killed when an American-chartered Boeing 707 filled with Italian tourists slammed into a fog-covered mountain in the Azores. In 1992, the XVI Olympic Winter Games opened in Albertville, France. In 2002, The Winter Olympics opened in Salt Lake City with an emotional tribute to America’s heroes, from the pioneers of the West to past Olympic champions to the thousands who’d perished on Sept. 11. One year ago: Wael Ghonim (WY’-uhl gohNEEM’), a Google executive who’d helped ignite Egypt’s uprising, appeared before protesters in Cairo’s Tahrir Square for the first time after being released from detention; he told them, “We won’t give up.” Today’s Birthdays: Composer-conductor John Williams is 80.

Help Wanted by Abigail Van Buren
MAN’S EX-GIRLFRIEND HAS WARNING FOR HIS FIANCEE
DEAR ABBY: My boyfriend, “Brady,” broke up with me in November. Five weeks later he became engaged to someone else. I found out after that I have genital warts. My yearly exams never showed any problems before, so I know I got them from Brady. I’m getting treatment now, but I’ll be contagious for the rest of my life. I have been unable to tell Brady about this because he won’t respond to my attempts to contact him. I’m now trying to decide if I should tell his fiancee. I know he wants children, and this disease can have some serious repercussions if she gets pregnant. Do I leave this woman in the dark, or should I give her the medical information she and her doctors should have? -NEEDS TO DO THE RIGHT THING IN NEW YORK DEAR NEEDS TO DO THE RIGHT THING: Five weeks into a relationship is a whirlwind courtship, unless Brady was cheating on you with his fiancee before your breakup. If that’s the case, she may be the person who infected Brady. Since he won’t respond to you, send him a registered letter informing him of your diagnosis, and any other information about genital warts you feel is relevant. If you’re worried that the fiancee is in the dark about this, send her a copy -- also by registered mail. That way you’ll know it was received. DEAR ABBY: I am the product of an interracial relationship from the late ‘60s. My maternal grandmother wanted nothing to do with me and made my teenage mother give me up for adoption. Before my biological mother passed away a few years ago, her dying wish was for my grandmother and me to form a relationship. She didn’t want her mother to be alone in her final years. I made an attempt to forge a relationship with my grandmother only to be told that she didn’t like me because of the
color of my skin. Since then, I have been having bad dreams of my mother being disappointed in me because I didn’t fulfill her wish. Please advise me on what I should do. -- UNACCEPTED IN NORTH CAROLINA DEAR UNACCEPTED: It takes two people to form a relationship. By reaching out to your grandmother, you did the best you could to fulfill your mother’s wish -- which, from your description of your grandmother, was an unfair burden to try to place on you. There’s no reason for you to court another round of rejection and, for your sake, I’m advising you not to. It may help to write a letter to your mother, explaining to her what happened when you reached out to your grandmother and how it felt, then read it at her grave. But please, stop blaming yourself for your grandmother’s inability to love. DEAR ABBY: While going through pictures on my girlfriend’s computer, I discovered that she had posed nude for a drawing by her artist daughter. For some reason, I am really bothered by her posing nude and doing it for her daughter. How can I bring this up, which will let her know that I was snooping on her computer? -- SAW WAY TOO MUCH IN KENTUCKY DEAR SAW WAY TOO MUCH: Why would you be “really bothered” by a mother posing nude for her daughter who is an artist? Most mothers and daughters have seen each other in states of undress and there is nothing shocking about it. My advice is to first figure out what you think is “wrong” with it, then admit that you snooped so you can talk it out. After that, she can determine if she wants to continue being involved with a man who is as nosy and prudish as you appear to be.
