Students practice reading in Patty Poulin’s afternoon kindergarten class at Conway Elementary School Thursday. On April 10 Conway voters will have a chance to decide if the three elementary schools, Conway Elementary, John Fuller and Pine Tree, will offer full-day classes for kindergartners or keep it as a half-day program. (JAMIE GEMMITI PHOTO)
CONWAY — All-day kindergarten was the hot topic at deliberative portion of annual Conway School Meeting. About 100 people turned out to the 90-minute meeting, and the majority of time was spent on this one warrant article. Several in attendance believe the time is now to move from half-day to full-day kindergarten. Article No. 17 is for $166,794 for three teachers at $54,098 each and $1,500 per school for supplies and equipment to establish a full-day kindergarten program in each of the three elementary schools. It is supported by the school board 4-3 (Randy Davison, Dick Klement and Rick Breton in the minority). The budget committee voted 9-8 not to support the article with Maury McKinney, Greydon Turner, Betty Loynd, Maureen Seavey, Mike DiGregorio, Brian Charles, Kelly DeFeo and Klement in the minority.

SCHLADMING, Austria – Leanne Smith made sure the final race of her World Cup season would be a good one Thursday, but the North Conway resident didn’t know how good until she crossed the finish line at the women’s super G at the 2012 World Cup Finals in Schladming, Austria. She was a career-best fifth overall, one spot ahead of teammate Lindsey Vonn. “I just wanted to ski as aggressively as possible,” Smith said on the U.S. Ski Team website following the race.
“I made a couple of little errors but I am really happy with my anticipation and the intensity of that run.” On the course early, in the No. 6 bib, Smith, the daughter of Paula and Joe Smith, was the first of the three American starters to get to work. She recorded her best World Cup finish ever in fifth place, 0.55 seconds behind the winner. Her previous best finish was a seventh-place result in the St. Moritz downhill in January. Smith ended the season ranked 16th in the super G standings.

Fruit flies drink their sorrows, too
–––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– DIGEST––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––
(NY Times) — They were young males on the make, and they struck out not once, not twice, but a dozen times with a group of attractive females hovering nearby. So they did what so many men do after being repeatedly rejected: they got drunk, using alcohol as a balm for unfulfilled desire. And not one flew off in search of a rotting banana. Fruit flies apparently selfmedicate just like humans do, drowning their sorrows or frustrations for some of the same reasons, scientists reported Thursday. Male flies subjected to what amounted to a long tease — in a glass tube, not a dance club — preferred food spiked with alcohol far more than male flies that were able to mate. The study, posted online in the journal Science, suggests that some elements of the brain’s reward system have changed very little during evolution, and these include some of the mechanisms that support addiction. Levels of a brain chemical that is active in regulating appetite predicted the flies’ thirst for alcohol. A similar chemical is linked to drinking in humans. “Reading this study is like looking back in time, to see the very origins of the reward circuit that drives fundamental behaviors like sex, eating and sleeping,” said Dr. Markus Heilig, the clinical director of the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism and the National Institute on Drug Abuse.

With arms for Yemen rebels, Iran seeks wider Mideast role
WASHINGTON (NY Times) — In the past several months, Iran appears to have increased its political outreach and arms shipments to rebels and other political figures in Yemen as part of what American military and intelligence officials say is a widening Iranian effort to extend its influence across the greater Middle East. Iranian smugglers backed by the Quds Force, an elite
international operations unit within Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps, are using small boats to ship AK-47s, rocket-propelled grenades and other arms to replace older weapons used by the rebels, a senior American official said. Using intercepted cellphone conversations between the smugglers and Quds Force operatives provided by the Americans, the Yemeni and Indian coastal
authorities have seized some shipments, according to the American official and a senior Indian official. The scale of Iran’s involvement remains unclear, and some Yemeni officials and analysts remain skeptical about the impact of any weapons shipments, citing a long history of dubious accusations by Saudi Arabia — Iran’s regional nemesis — and Saudi allies in Yemen.
Women figure anew in Senate’s latest battle WASHINGTON (NY Times) — With emotions still raw from the fight over President Obama’s contraception mandate, Senate Democrats are beginning a push to renew the Violence Against Women Act, the once broadly bipartisan 1994 legislation that now faces fierce opposition from conservatives. The fight over the law, which would expand financing for and broaden the reach of domestic violence programs, will be joined Thursday when Senate Democratic women plan to march to the Senate floor to demand quick action on its
extension. Senator Harry Reid of Nevada, the majority leader, has suggested he will push for a vote by the end of March. Democrats, confident they have the political upper hand with women, insist that Republican opposition falls into a larger picture of insensitivity toward women that has progressed from abortion fights to contraception to preventive health care coverage — and now to domestic violence. “I am furious,” said Senator Maria Cantwell, Democrat of Washington. “We’re mad, and we’re tired of it.”

Karzai calls on U.S. to pull back as Taliban cancel talks
KABUL, Afghanistan (NY Times) — Prospects for an orderly withdrawal of NATO forces from Afghanistan suffered two blows on Thursday as President Hamid Karzai demanded that the United States confine troops to major bases by next year, and the Taliban announced that they were suspending peace talks with the Americans. Getting talks started with the Taliban has been a major goal of the United States and its NATO allies for the past two years, and only in recent months was there concrete evidence of progress. And the declaration by President Karzai, if carried out, would greatly accelerate the pace of transition from NATO to Afghan control, which previously was envisioned to be complete by 2014. Defense officials admitted there was a major divide between Karzai’s declaration and the American goals of training the Afghan security forces and conducting counterinsurgency operations.

Mistrial declared in FREE STEAMERS Rwanda genocide trial ON FRIDAY
THE CONWAY DAILY SUN, Friday, March 16, 2012— Page 3
CONCORD — A federal judge has declared a mistrial in the case of a New Hampshire woman accused of lying to obtain U.S. citizenship by denying her role in the 1994 Rwanda genocide. The ruling comes after jurors failed to reach a verdict. Forty-one-year-old Beatrice Munyenyezi became a U.S. citizen in 2003 and moved to Manchester. She faced deportation to Rwanda upon conviction.
Authorities said Munyenyezi was an extremist Hutu who killed and enabled the rapes of untold Tutsi victims. They said she was not the innocent refugee she claimed to be in 1995 to gain U.S. entry. Prosecution witnesses testified they saw her direct rapes and killings, but her relatives testified they never saw her do so. They said she also never carried a gun or wore a military uniform. —Courtesy of WMUR

Bill to allow refusal of service for gay weddings squashed BY GARRY RAYNO THE UNION LEADER
CONCORD — The House rejected a bill that would have allowed wedding service providers to refuse to perform gay weddings if an individual or business had religious or conscience objections. Supporters of House Bill 1264 said a person or business should not have to provide services if it is contrary to their religious tenets or would violate their beliefs. “This should be a very alarming warning,” said the bill’s prime sponsor, Rep. Jerry Bergevin, R-Manchester. “It means we are moving into a brave new world. It may not be your ox being gored at the moment, but just wait, it will be.”
Bill opponents said the bill would codify discrimination. Rep. Barry Palmer, R-Nashua, who was a member of the New Hampshire Human Rights Commission, called the bill unconstitutional, illegal, immoral and mean-spirited. “I have a rough idea of what discrimination is,” he said. “This bill is illegal by state statute and illegal by federal law.” The House killed the bill Wednesday by a 246-85 vote. Under the bill, a business owner or employee would not have to provide services, accommodations, advantages, facilities, goods or privileges for a wedding ceremony if they had a religious or conscience objection. The person also would not be legally liable for his or her action.

German giant slalom specialist Viktoria Rebensburg took her first World Cup win in a speed event with a 0.18-second winning margin (1:24.55) ahead of American Julia Mancuso in second (1:24.72). France’s Marion Rolland was third, three-hundredths of a second behind Mancuso (1:24.75). Smith finished in 1:25.09 while Vonn added to her already historic season by capturing her 16th career Audi FIS Alpine World Cup title as the Super G season champion. Vonn was sixth in 1:25.11, but praised Mancuso and Smith for their fine days. “I’m really proud of Jules (Mancuso) and Leanne (Smith),” she said on the U.S. Ski Team website. “Julia is so strong in super G and is really starting to give me a run for my money and Leanne is showing that she can ski with the best in both downhill and super G. This was a great way for our team to close the speed season.” Smith was pleased with the day. “It’s a beautiful day, it’s the end of the World Cup for me and we are moving on and going to U.S. Championships at Winter Park (Colo.) and getting ready for the off-season,” she said. “I really like it here. The fans are so excited and they love ski racing. It was loud for every single athlete that crossed the finish line.”

It was loud for every single athlete that crossed the finish line.” Vonn leads the World Cup overall standings 1948-1382 over Slovakia’s Tina Maze (seventh in race) and cannot be beaten for the title with two races remaining. Doug Haney, of the U.S. Ski and Snowboard Association, knew Smith was on the verge of a big result. “We were hanging out last night before dinner – talking about the season and other things,” he wrote in an email Thursday morning. “She was talking about her team: ‘There’s a lot of people working together and there are a lot of people who want to do well – it’s a combination for success. We’re a great team and we all have our strong suits. If there’s a team that I want to train and race with, I know it’s ours,’ she said.”
CORRECTION There were no contested races on the school ballot in Bartlett on Tuesday but a former school board member Scott Grant received a host of write-ins for a three-year term on the board. Grant fell well short of the two candidates who were actually on the ballot defending their seats.
Va ca tion R en ta lClea n in g
Incumbents Rob Clark and Michael Murphy won reelection to a third and second term on the school board, respectively, with 429 and 369 votes. Grant received 121 write-ins while another former school board member Bill Fabrizio garnered double figures.

Support article to plow Lead Mine Road To the editor, This letter is in support of the Lead Mine Road article, warrant article 22, in Madison. Lead Mine Road is a Class V Road that we have plowed as needed in the past. We did not need to plow it all of the time, since no one lived on the private parcels serviced by the road. We plowed it easily when a private property owner asked occasionally or when we logged in the public Goodwin Forest. We did not need heavy-handed government regulations to act in this flexible way. In 2007 we were told that because it is a Class V Road we might have to plow it on a regular basis even if no one lives on the road. Voters agreed to change the road to a “Class V road to summer cottages” so we could legally avoid plow-
ing an uninhabited road for four winter months. No one mentioned that there was a building permit issued on one parcel in advance of this change. With that previously issued permit a residence has been built there. Before 2007 we would be free to plow the road as needed with changing times. This article seeks to allow us to act with historic freedom by removing the summer cottage designation only from the eastern part of the Class V Road. It will have a minimal impact on the town and we will be treating fellow residents as we do all other Madison residents who live on a Class V Road. I hope you will support this article.

SAU 13 withdrawal failed by just one vote To the editor: I’ve always thought it was important to exercise our “right” and our “privilege” to vote. But I hope by learning what happened in Madison will influence every person to vote in the future, no matter what town you live in or what the issue is. The particular vote I’m referring to had to do with Madison’s plan to withdraw from SAU 13 and join SAU 9 (with their approval), which needed a 60 percent margin to pass. It lost by 0.4 percent of one vote! So if only one more person had voted, and voted in the affirmative, it
would have met the 60 percent requirement. The vote was 239 to withdraw and 160 against, for a total of 399 votes. That is a very small turnout (approximately 25 percent of registered voters) which was probably because there were no contested seats on the ballot. But even if this is the case in your town, now or in the future, there are always warrant articles to vote on as well. So don’t you be the one person who didn’t vote and cause the defeat of something you believe in. Charlotte Emmel Silver Lake

Sluts and Silly Girls The GOP war on women continues. Far right bloviator Rush Limbaugh got himself into all kinds of trouble recently, when he called a college student a slut and a prostitute, for testifying before a Congressional committee about the medical benefits of birth control. Limbaugh basically told all of his viewers that this young woman is a slut who wants taxpayers to pay for her birth control. He also suggested that she has an awful lot of sex, requiring prodigious amounts of birth control. He also made the curious demand that if taxpayers were going to subsidize her birth control, that she post videos of all of this sex she’s having, so that Rush and his cohorts could view the videos. Trouble is, Sandra Fluke wasn’t testifying about her own sex life, or asking for free contraception. She was speaking about women who require birth control pills for medical conditions. Despite the best efforts of the prodigious media liars of the right, the bill that would guarantee that insurance companies cover birth control for women has nothing to do with taxpayers. Limbaugh doesn’t seem to understand that birth control pills aren’t taken every time one engages in sexual congress. He seems to be confusing birth control with the Viagra he is known to travel with a prescription for, under an assumed name. And finally, I’d bet my life’s savings of $3.62 that Rush Limbaugh doesn’t watch heterosexual porn. Thanks to Rush, we now know that any woman who uses birth control is a slut, and members of the Christian Taliban and the far right propaganda machine are all agreeing right along with Limbaugh. It’s by far the most interesting strategy I’ve seen in an election year: the deliberate alienation of slightly more than half of the voting population. New Hampshire’s GOP clown car is racing down the same track. Executive Councilor Ray Wieczorek voted against funding Planned Parenthood in New Hampshire, making this comment: “If they want to have a good time, let them pay for it.” Yes, Ray, nothing says good time more than a mammogram or a pap smear. Of course, he was referring to the sluts who use birth control. One can only applaud Mr. Wieczorek for the decision NOT to run for another term. New Hampshire had a law in place that required contraception coverage in all health insurance plans. It was enacted during a Republican controlled legislature. However, the national fervor over insurance coverage for sluts got Speaker O’Brien all het up, and desperate to repeal this law. O’Brien and his trusty assistant, House Majority Leader DJ Bettencourt, enlisted the aid of the Manchester Catholic Diocese to write up a new law. A scant year ago, young DJ referred to Bishop McCormack of that same diocese as a “pedophile pimp,” because he spoke out against the punitive budget that the O’Brien junta passed last year. The diocese apparently doesn’t hold a grudge, at least not when they have the chance to write a law that would negatively impact women. Since the diocese is dabbling in politics and writing laws, they should lose their tax-free non-profit status, immediately. The N.H. House has just passed HB 1659, a bill that stipulates that women must be “informed” before having the legal medical procedure known as an abortion. At least 24 hours before the procedure (necessitat-
ing two appointments, and for some women that means losing at least two days pay) the woman must be orally informed about a number of things by the doctor. At that same visit, she must be given a lengthy stack of materials, and she must certify, in writing, that she has been spoken to, and handed propaganda. The doctor must also fill out a checklist that goes in her file. In the event that a physician is performing a medically necessary emergency procedure, he or she must still fill out that same form that goes in the woman’s file. There are at least 12 strictures in the bill about the kind of material the woman must be given, including the stipulation that she is given a handout on the link between breast cancer and abortion. This is a link pushed by the anti-science Christian Taliban, but it is a link that has been debunked by actual scientists and medical professionals. The N.H. House has just passed a bill requiring that doctors LIE to women. There’s something we can all be proud of. HB 1659 also stipulates that information be gathered and reported on by the physician to the state, including the age of the patient, any previous pregnancies or abortions, the nature of those abortions, the age of the fetus, and the location of the facility. This is just a hop, skip, and a jump away from printing the names of these women in the newspaper. I hasten to remind you — that all of this regulation is for a legal medical procedure. Clearly, the men of the O’Brien junta don’t believe that women have any right at all to medical privacy or bodily autonomy. My late husband had multiple myeloma. For a time, he was taking Thalidomide, the drug that caused birth defects during the 1950s. He had to go through a monthly reporting process to obtain the drug, which is highly restricted. That process was not nearly as onerous as the one that the N.H. House would like to force on women who are availing themselves of a legal, medical procedure. Also, no one insisted that he be given false information about the effects of the drug. It’s clear that the N.H. Legislature feels that women are silly girlies who need their help in making medical decisions, though it’s hard to square it with their constant assertion of “less government interference” in our lives. Their goal would seem to be to shrink government small enough to drown in a bathtub and fit neatly into a uterus. If women are so stupid that we can’t make our own medical decisions, how can you trust us with these lives you pretend to be so desperate to protect? Meanwhile, the New Hampshire unemployment rate is still 5.2 percent. In February 6,338 initial unemployment claims were filed. That doesn’t even begin to touch on the number of people who are substantially underemployed and barely making ends meet. Ten percent of New Hampshire’s children live in poverty. Our state infrastructure is a disaster. But, hey — why worry about that? There are bedrooms and vaginas to police. “NH House GOP Agenda ‘12: Focuses squarely on getting the 38,000 of our friends and neighbors who remain unemployed back to work.” — DJ Bettencourt, on Twitter, February 4, 2012.

Balancing Respect and Suspicion The explosion was loud, powerful and sudden. Instantly everyone in the Joint Operations Center (JOC) hit the floor — standard procedure for a potential rocket or mortar attack, but a new experience for me. When there were no additional explosions, we donned our body armor and resumed our work. My first task was to “drop a pri,” that is, put in a priority immediate air request so that in the event of a follow-on attack we would have air support on station. Processing and coordinating “pri’s” and other air support requests for ground units is what I do all day; putting one in myself for our own location was slightly surreal. Throughout the incident everyone in the JOC remained calm, professional and efficient. Within moments we learned that the cause of the blast was a large suicide car bomb targeting Afghan police here in Lashkar Gah (in town, not on base). Thankfully, there were no friendly force casualties, though news reports have since indicated some civilian injuries. Soon after, the all clear was sounded and by the end of my shift, I’d all but forgotten it had happened. Still, I’ll admit to being slightly on edge lately, due as much to the news as to the car bomb. We obviously pay very close attention every time Afghan security forces attack their coalition partners, though we also see frequent examples of successful cooperation which you may not hear as much about back home. For instance, I recently had lunch with another lieutenant who is part of a police mentoring team based here in Lashkar Gah. He told me that when he first arrived some eight months ago, his Marines went out nearly every day to various parts of the district to help train and advise their Afghan counterparts. On the day I met him he was complaining of boredom: the Afghan police unit had moved to its own base and was now operating far more independently. Anecdotal, sure, but positive. Here’s another anecdote. Before the car bombing, but after the protests over the Quran-burning incident had begun to spread, we got word in the JOC that a crowd was forming in Lashkar Gah. We could hear someone speaking in Pashto over the loudspeakers that are usually used for the call to worship. As the translation began filtering into the JOC, we learned the crowd wasn’t protesting the Quran-burning but rather calling upon the Afghan police to do more to combat Taliban kidnappings. After a shura — a sort of council or meeting — was held the protestors disbanded peacefully. Now I’m not trying to make more out of this than it is. Perhaps it’s simplistic to say that things aren’t simple here, but you don’t have to be on the ground long to realize how true it is.

On my last deployment, I trained a squad of Marines tasked with securing our sector of Camp Leatherneck in the event of an attack. We conducted all kinds of rehearsals, including live searches of Afghan civilians, vehicles and living facilities. Before every search, I would remind my Marines that there are two types of Afghans on base. There are a few who are here to harm us or to collect information to aid others in attacking us. We must always be vigilant and suspicious, I told them, and I can tell you that our vigilance was justified, and paid off. But then there are the vast majority of Afghans with whom we interact — interpreters, trainees, and contractors — who are risking their lives and the lives of their families in order to work with us. They are patriots who deserve eye contact, a smile and a firm handshake. That’s how I continue to see the situation today. The more brutal and murderous the Taliban are, the more I respect the Afghans who continue to defy them. It’s a difficult balance to strike — between respect and suspicion — but each has its place and I think that progress depends heavily on both Afghans and coalition forces continuing to strive for it. Big picture, we’re still on the tail end of the annual winter lull, and things are relatively quiet. But summer is just around the corner, and summers are always hot in Afghanistan, in more ways than one. Unfortunately, more coalition casualties are likely, including possibly some at the hands of Afghans wearing their country’s uniform. Still, as long as the Afghans continue to stand up to the Taliban in increasing numbers and places, those of us in our own nation’s uniform will keep doing our part to give them the best chance for success. 1stLt.

spoke in favor of the article. “Educationally, a major benefit of a full day of kindergarten will include virtually tripling the instructional time rather than doubled,” he said. “Currently, typically a kindergarten schedule right now includes a 45-minute special that means art, music or physical education, a snack, recess, a few added moments and then just for younger kids 15 minutes to settle in and to get ready to leave. With a full-day program, specials, snacks and recess would remain the same and the added time would be purely instructional.” Skelton said full-day kindergarten makes sense economically as well. “A full-day kindergarten program would offset the cost of out-of-district placements for students who require a longer day than what we currently offer,” he said. “With a full-day program, special education services would be offered in a similar manner to what we offer for students in grades one through six. This could potentially elevate a number of out-of-district placements and thus result in financial savings in the immediate year. Full-day kindergarten will allow more time in the school day for interventions for students that need extra support and/or enrichment.” Skelton said many Conway children are already enrolled in full-day pre-kindergarten programing and it would be a step back for them to switch to half day when they reach kindergarten. “All-day kindergarten would help to preserve continuity in their programming,” he said. “In the long run I think the major educational benefit is the earlier interventions, the opportunities for children with challenges to have a full day and will have a major long-term
effect in those kids needing help to get onto grade level results in savings down the road. There fewer children who end up being coded and needing special education services.” Skelton has met with all three elementary school principals and toured their facilities. “They all have plans in place to accommodate this program and they are all strongly in favor of it,” he said. “The school board urges your support of full-day kindergarten.” Budget committee member Ted Sares said he and fellow budgeteers were troubled that this appeared as a warrant article rather than placed in the budget. Klement, the school board’s representative to the budget committee, believed a warrant article was the only way the school board could bring the item forward because it failed to garner support by the school board’s budget committee. (It was a 4-4 tie — the committee is made up of all seven school board members plus Jane Gray, of Eaton, who is the SAU 9 chairman.) The school board itself voted 4-3 to support the article. Klement said had the school’s budget committee supported fullday kindergarten, the item would have gone directly into the budget. “This was the only mechanism to get it here,” Klement said. Mark Zangari, principal of John Fuller School; Aimee Frechette, principal of Pine Tree; and Brian Hastings, principal of Conway Elementary School, believe the time is now for allday kindergarten and that the move could actually lead to long-term financial gains for the district. “We’ve got to get a jump on litersee next page
Gray says Conway School Board had options with the budget and warrant BY LLOYD JONES THE CONWAY DAILY SUN
CONWAY — Jane Gray, of Eaton, the longtime chairman of the SAU 9 Board, disagrees with the Conway School Board’s assertion that the only way to get proposals for full-day kindergarten and four middle school teaching teams to voters was through warrant articles. Gray wasn’t in attendance at the deliberative portion of Conway School Meeting last week, but she wishes she was to clarify procedural items. Members of the Conway School Board said their lone path for all-day kindergarten and returning to four teaching teams was through warrant articles after the school board’s budget committee — which is made up of all seven Conway board members along with the chairman of the SAU 9 Board — voted 4-4 on those two budget items. Board member Dick Klement, who serves as his board’s representative to the budget committee, explained a warrant article was the only way the board could bring the items forward because they failed to garner support by the school board’s budget committee. The school board itself voted 4-3 to support the articles. Klement said had the school’s budget committee supported full-day kindergarten and four teams, those items would have gone directly into the budget. “This was the only mechanism to get it here,” Klement said. Gray disagreed when contacted by phone last Wednesday. “If you will recall, first off, or you can look at the minutes,” she said, “the kindergarten proposal was brought to school board’s budget committee as a recommended warrant article by the principals (of John Fuller School, Pine Tree and Conway Elementary School). Saying the school board had no choice is not accurate either. The school board’s budget committee is advisory to the Conway board and has no authority at all. The decision is ultimately up to the school board itself.” Gray said in previous years she has

acy; we know full-time kindergarten addresses it,” Zangari said. He explained the administrators have long supported full-day kindergarten; however, proposals have never reached the board in the past due to budget constraints. The three principals acknowledged it’s not the best of financial times, but the need continues to mount. “The time really has come for this to be addressed,” Zangari said. All-day kindergarten programing was a recommendation by the K-8 Educational Research Committee in its 2009 report. Elementary school principals have strongly supported a full-day kindergarten program for many years and are bringing the program forward for consideration in a warrant article. “We believe it is best practice for addressing the district’s goal of narrowing the achievement gap,” the proposal states. Additional benefits cited in their proposal included: • A full-day kindergarten program essentially triples the instructional time
voted no on items in her role on the Conway School Board’s budget committee that have led to ties and the board itself later made its own decision. “We’ve had ties before and the board has gone in and voted how it wanted,” she said. “I’m kind of frustrated by all of this. It looks like the board had no choice when it really did. They had other alternatives.” Gray pointed out there is actually supposed to be a ninth seat occupied at the Conway School Board’s budget committee table. SAU 13 has a standing invitation to have a representative sit in on the budget proceedings, again only in an advisory capacity. “SAU 13 has sent a person periodically through the years but not recently,” Gray said. On the increasing to four teaching teams, Gray said Conway board member Lynne Brydon suggested making the matter a warrant article. “Once she made a motion to go that way there wasn’t a lot of discussion,” she said. “The board could have put it right into the budget if they wanted to, but didn’t.” At Monday’s deliberative meeting, members of the budget committee said they were apprehensive about supporting all-day kindergarten because of Grays’ vote and therefore didn’t want to financially impact Albany and Eaton if they opposed the move from half-day to full-day kindergarten. Gray explained her vote Wednesday. “The reason I voted against it was basically financial at this time,” she said. “I believe it’s probably going to cost more than is budgeted, plus we had a chance to have a reduced budget. I didn’t want to see us adding things on to bring the budget up; this just isn’t the right time in my book. In theory lots of things are wonderful ideas, but we can’t afford everything that’s wonderful at this time.” Gray said she conferred with the entire Eaton board and with the chair of the Albany board before casting her votes. “I don’t make decisions in a vacuum,” she said.
available to students. Currently, a typical kindergarten schedule includes one 45-minute special (art, music, physical education, library, etc.), snack, recess and teaching time within a three and a half hour program. With a full-day program, the specials, snack and recess would remain the same with the added time being purely instructional. • A full-day kindergarten program would offset the costs of out-of-district placements for students who require a longer day than we currently offer. In a full-day program, special education services would be delivered in the same manner as those for students in grades 1-6. • A full-day kindergarten program would allow more time in the school day for interventions for those students requiring extra support and/or enrichment opportunities. • Many children are enrolled in fullday pre-kindergarten programing just to switch to a half-day program once they reach kindergarten.

their educational programming. • A full-day program is less of an inconvenience for parents who are currently being forced to find half-day care for their children. The three principals said at this time all three elementary schools have the physical space to accommodate all-day kindergarten. Currently, the New Hampshire Department of Education requires districts to provide only half-day kindergarten. The Bartlett School District offers full-day. Dave Sordi, the chair of the budget committee, said Gray’s vote which appeared to deadlock the school’s budget committee, was the reason why he and others on the committee voted against the article. “Everything John said about kindergarten I agree with and personally I think it’s a great
idea,” Sordi said. “but my feeling and I think a couple of other people voting no for all-day kindergarten is exactly because of what happened with the SAU 9 board member not wanting it, not thinking was a good idea, and then the Conway School Board turning around passing a warrant article and then imposing allday kindergarten on the sending towns. We didn’t feel it was the right way to go about it, we think we need the full support of the sending towns.” DiGregorio, the selectmen’s representative to the budget committee, said the committee was never told why Gray voted against the article. “Were they against it totally or did they want it as a separate article to let the voters decide?” he said. “We were also never told if the sending towns took a position.” Board member Syndi White supports all-day kindergarten. She said strengthening kindergar-
ten will lead to better test scores down the road and the district will be able to offer better courses and students will be accepted to higher tier colleges. “Our kids will have better skills,” she said. “It starts in early education. If we want to build an excellent school system this is what we need to do. We’ve talked about it for many years. This year we started looking at the numbers; we started looking at the money; we started looking at what we’re doing in special education. We found that we have more and more kids that need full-day kindergarten. Why is that? We have a lot more kids that are diagnosed with autism, and with autism one of the things that kids need is they need that all-day kindergarten because they need to strengthen social skills; they need intensive therapies; and they also need time in regular kindergarten with regular education kids.”
White said four kindergarten children had to be sent out of district this year due to special needs and it cost $40,000 per child. “We don’t know if that’s going to completely offset the costs because we can’t predict how many kids we are going to have each year,” she said. “Looking at the number of kids who are coming into the system, we can predict realistically that there will be more kids who need them and more money that will have to be given for outof-district placements so it’s really a win-win situation. It will benefit all of the children in the town because they’ll be able to benefit from the increased instruction they are going to get.” Sordi again brought up Gray’s vote. “I’m sure it wasn’t an off-the-cuff decision, that there was a lot of time that went into it, understanding what the costs and the benefits would be,” he said. “Not having
the support of SAU 9 whether they’ve taken a position or not is a critical issue.” Klement said he voted no because he doesn’t believe the price tag is accurate. He thinks it could be close to $100,000 higher due to the need for aides. “We need to remember that an aide making $25,000 a year potentially also has benefits of $25,000 per year so it could be close to $150,000,” he said. Davison said he would support all-day kindergarten, but only with the caveat of the sixth grade moving to the middle school to free up more space. Resident Melissa Stacy said she has three special needs children and has been told since 2003 she and others have been begging for all-day kindergarten. “We cannot let our children continue to go down hill,” she said. “My children would have prospered with all-day
kindergarten. Unfortunately because that was still not an option at that time they are still in special education. Instead of being closer to leaving special education and being mainstreamed, I’m still fighting with IEPs (Individual Education Plans) and it’s costing this district tremendous amounts of money.” Resident Kristin Groves, who teaches kindergarten and first grade all day at Jackson Grammar School, said her child will be in kindergarten in Conway next year. “My children in Jackson, the children in Bartlett, attend kindergarten for six and a half hours a day,” she said. “the children in Conway go to school for two and a half hours per day. The children in Jackson and Bartlett have 600 more hours of kindergarten than the children in Conway. They are all sent to the high school in Conway, all of these children are expected to perform on the same level, to the same standards. It’s not fair to all of the children in Conway. “Those 600 hours are hours which early intervention can be given to all children, not just children on the autism spectrum,” Groves continued. “Children who perhaps don’t have parents who read to them every night. Children who have parents who are not as educated as other parents and don’t help them quite as much. Six hundred hours of early intervention which research shows is the best time to close the gap.

Groves received the loudest ovation of the night for her comments. Janine McLauchlan, chair of the school board said the tax impact if the warrant article is approved would be roughly 12 cents per $1,000 of property valuation.

On-screen Lecture series continues at Leura Hill Eastman with Edmund Morris March 21 FRYEBURG — The on-screen author lecture series continues at the Leura Hill Eastman Performing Arts Center located at 18 Bradley Street on the Campus of Fryeburg Academy in Fryeburg, Maine. Recorded at the Free Library of Philadelphia and shown onscreen is author Edmund Morris, discussing his book Colonel Roosevelt on Wednesday, March 21, at 7:30 p.m. This biography by Edmund Morris, the Pulitzer Prize– and National Book Award–winning author of “The Rise of Theodore Roosevelt
and Theodore Rex,” marks the completion of a trilogy sure to stand as definitive. Of all our great presidents, Theodore Roosevelt is the only one whose greatness increased out of office. What other president has written forty books, hunted lions, founded a third political party, survived an assassin’s bullet, and explored an unknown river longer than the Rhine? Packed with more adventure, variety, drama, humor, and tragedy than a big novel, yet documented down to the smallest fact, this masterwork recounts the
last decade of perhaps the most amazing life in American history. Each lecture in the author series will run approximately 60 minutes in length, beginning with a talk given by the author, followed by a Question and Answer session. The Author Series is monthly; please visit our website for future listings. Tickets are $10 adults, $7 seniors and $5 students. Group rates are available for parties of 10 or more. Parking is free. For more information visit www. fryeburgacademy.org/pac or contact the box office at (207) 935-9232.

AS MY LATE IRISH mother of eight used to say, “If you were lucky enough to be born Irish, you’re lucky enough.” We’re all Irish to some extent this sunny and unseasonably warm Saturday, March 17, as St. Patrick’s Day will not only celebrate the saint who drove the snakes out of Ireland, but also all sorts of happenings on and off the suddenly summerlike slopes and touring trails this in the valley. Among the events topping the off-slope activities is the second annual Fryeburg St. Patrick’s Day Parade March 17. It’s to proceed down Main Street from Fryeburg Academy to the 302 Smokehouse at 4 p.m. Friendly bartender Clare Colbert of the 302 Smokehouse stopped by our offices this week to tell us that the parade is open to all local businesses, organizations and individuals, so get your bicycles, wagons, unicycles, tractors,
drums and pennywhistles ready. To register, call (207) 935-3021 or just stop by the restaurant and say you’re coming. In other St. Paddy’s Day fun, the Shannon Door Pub is scheduled to open at 1 p.m. Saturday, featuring musical entertainment by Marty O’Quirk and friends. Patsy McArdle tells us that May Kelly’s Irish Cottage will open at noon Saturday, and will feature the Sunday afternoon Irish Seissiun players on St. Patty’s in the Red Room all day, and Dennis and Davey will begin performing at 4 p.m. The Stillston School of Irish Dance will step-dance at 6:30 p.m. St. Margaret of Scotland Anglican Church in Conway is featuring a traditional corn beef cabbage dinner with the first seating from 5 p.m. and a second seating at 6 p.m. Stone Mountain Arts Center is featuring Carol Noonan and Stone Mountian LIVE on St. Patty’s. Special guest Irish singer Bib Bradshaw and fiddler Darol Anger will join them. Come early
for the Irish meal prepared by Carol and her staff. Also on March 17, McGrath’s is featuring all sorts of specials and music by Those Guys, and Rafferty’s will also be corn beef cabbaging it up in style. Linda and John Rafferty are planning a Bud Light bike raffle drawing as part of the day’s festivities. Shak Nasti is playing at Hillbilly’s March 17 after a smoked corned beef boiled dinner, says Frank Welch. Meanwhile, the Red Parka on the 17th is featuring music by Sauce, along with home-brined corned beef and cabbage, and soda bread. see next page

TYLER TO RACE: The 39th annual Red Parka Challenge Cup is being held today at Attitash. Terry O’Brien, who is just back from skiing in Schweitzer with Irish hubbie George O’Brien on a visit with former valley residents and now Schweitzer general manager Tom and Donna Chasse, says the field for today’s dual slalom race is well over 90 — the most it’s been in years. Among the racers? Tyler Haynes, who has been tops in Cranmore Mountain Meister racing all this whacky season long; former U.S. C Ski Team member Chrissy Guptill, and past multi-champion Ben Drummond. The BIG news is that all-aroud good guy, former 1972 Valley Olympian, former Men’s Pro Tour racer, multi-time RPP Challenge Cup winner and now U.S. Hall of Fame inductee Tyler Palmer will also be among the field. Tyler, who has been coping with Addison’s disease and is also an insulin-dependent, adult onset diabetic, told Terry when he handed out the trophy for the Red Parka Pub Junior Challenge Cup that he wants to race. “He was one of the first to sign up,” said Terry. “I asked if he was up to this, and he said, ‘Terry, I can ski a lot better than I can walk.’ We’re thrilled to have him back.” The qualifying runs start at 9:30 a.m., with the final rounds expected to be around 12:30 p.m., with the awards at Ptarmigan’s at 3 p.m. ••• CRANMORE SNOWSPORTS HALL OF FAME: Eric Styffe, a ski instructor at Cranmore Mountain Resort for 41 years, was one of four inductees to the Cranmore Snowsports Hall of Fame at the start of the 16th annual Hannes Schneider Meister Cup Friday night, March 2, at Zip’s Grille. Other inductees included the late Benno Rybizka, the late Otto Tschol, and Norma Haynes Wassall, who for 15 years was acting ski school director for Herbert Schneider in the 1970s and 1980s. Although he had a bad cold, the always Austrian capped Eric obliged the audience by displaying his yodeling talents. Committee member Don Newton welcomed the new inductees. First inductees last year were Hannes and Herbert Schneider, Edi Mall, Danny Grant and John McDonald. “The mission is to honor the people that have played such a role in teaching Cranmore snowsports throughout the years, beginning with Hannes (1890-1955). We honor those instructors who have demonstrated a commitment, dedication and and passion to making a positive difference in the ski school,” said Donnie. ••• CONGRATS TO THE EAGLES: We were among the many Kennett High ice hockey fans who traveled to Manchester’s Verizon Wireless arena last Saturday to see the Eagles defeat Alvirne 4-3 with 26 seconds left in the first OT to win the Division III
BAROQUE from page 11
The Baroque Trio comprises the acquisition of three Baroque keyboard instruments: a double manual eight-foot harpsichord which was fully restored in spring of 2010 funded by grants and private donations, as well as an unfretted clavichord, and a virginal instrument in a standing case. Funds raised from the concerts will be used to complete the restoration of the clavichord and virginal. The completed Baroque Trio will be provided a home at the Conway Historical Society’s Salyards Center for the Arts. Also supporting the project is the White Mountain Musical Arts which is committed to featuring the instruments in the Bach Festival and other performances. Those wishing to contribute to the completion of the Baroque Trio Project are urged to send a donation to the CHS/Baroque Trio Project at P.O. Box 1949, Conway, NH 03818. Additional information about the concerts and the Salyards Center for the Arts may be found at: www.MWVEvents.com.

Movie Review: ‘John Carter’ Reel Reviews –––––
Disney’s latest attempt at kicking off a live-action Alec Kerr adventure series that could be its new “Pirates of the Caribbean” is “John Carter,” a film following the exploits of a Civil War veteran magically transported to a very different Civil War on Mars. “John Carter” is a flashy $250 million adaptation of Edgar Rice Burroughs’ “A Princess of Mars,” the first in a series of Mars adventures. Written in the early years of the 20th century, this series was one of the inspirations of “Star Wars” and was hugely influential on the sci-fi genre. Much like Tarzan, Burroughs’ other iconic character, John Carter spends most of the film showing off his rippling muscles. Taylor Kitsch, who plays Carter, has the well toned body, but perhaps should’ve spent a bit more time work on his acting chops. He is more than able in the action scene, but lacks charisma, depth or chemistry with his love interest, Dejah Thoris (Lynn Collins). For the most part, the film seems faithful to the source material with the introductions of the multiple armed green martians named Tharks and the feuding humanoid martians from the rival cities of Helium and Zodanga. To end the feud, Helium princess Dejah Thoris must marry Sab Than (Dominic West). This adaptation by director Andrew Stanton and co-writers Mark Andrews and Michael Chabon also adds the Therns, which appeared in the later novels “Warlords of Mars” and “Gods of Mars.” Therns present themselves as Gods and hold sway over the races of Mars. Mark Strong, seemingly forever typecast as a villain, is seen throughout the film manipulating the sides supposedly to keep balance. see next page

On those bluebird days when it’s an easy commute taking the high speed detachable to the summit and a pleasure to get back to the chair, legs can tire rather quickly. Old Red was the place to slow down and rest a bit.

It was also a place to banter with friendly lifties. Sitting on Red with a stranger, conversation comes rather quickly. On a quad, there’s lots of space to keep strangers being strangers. There’s a retirement party for Red on Sunday. The chairs are being sold for $500 between noon and 2 p.m. If you can’t be there and want one, call the ski area. There are about 33 available. More than 33 people want one? It’s a lottery. So, R.I.P. Rickety Red. You’re going to look great surrounded by all those geraniums.

Small and beginner farmers of New Hampshire meet March 20
Town elections took place in Tamworth this week. The main news was the election of James Hidden as the new selectman, defeating Willie Farnum, and the reelection of Lisa Remick to the School Board. Coey Littlefield was voted in as a write-in for the one year term on the school board. Congratulations, and thanks to all who ran for office in any capacity. I would like to thank Willie for years of dedicated service to Tamworth.About two or three years ago the Board of selectmen decided to have representatives attend town board meetings. As a library trustee I was particularly grateful to Willie, who was assigned to the Cook Memorial Library Trustees meetings , for his clarity and patience in explaining the ramifications of town policy changes and his helpfulness in so many respects. Town meeting 2012 began with a welcome from moderator Chris Canfield who introduced the Tamworth Town Meeting Singers,suspiciously like the Pot Luck singers, who gave us a rendering of “There’s a meeting here tonight”, a lively choral number that is still echoing in my head. There is a link to a YouTube video of the upbeat song on the Tamworth Exchange posted on the Arts council of Tamworth’s website at artstamworth.com (Thanks, Juno). Chris guided us expertly through the warrant articles and the selectmen who had not supported any particular ones were asked to explain. Items generating the most discussion involved a reserve for legal expenses, and the appointing of a fourth full time employee for the Highway Department. The Highway Department warrant article was passed, as was the one for Culture and Recreation, ensuring the needs of the library, parks and recreation, swim program and patriotic purposes. There was lively but respectful discussion on several of the warrant articles representing social causes, including Agape Ministries , White Mountain Community Health Center , and Carroll County Transit’s senior and general public transportation, for which several people spoke favorably. Article 26 for Life Bridge Inc, a mentoring organization was defeated. Northern Human Services ‘ warrant article had not been received in time and in order to accommodate it, the town voted to rescind article 23, Health and Welfare and vote again on an increased figure reflecting the amount requested by Northern Human Services. This was a very pleasant and upbeat town meeting, the atmosphere was cordial, and best of all it was over earlier than usual. Many thanks to the moderator, and to all the election officials who worked so diligently to make this unique manifestation of our democracy possible On Saturday I stopped by the Tamworth Lyceum to view the demonstration of the screen printing of an antique map of Tamworth and Sandwich by Jamie Oakes and Matt Thompson. I came away with a beautiful t-shirt embellished with the Elliot Clark map commissioned in 1860. There are some t-shirts still available for a very affordable price. ‘Live at the Lyceum ‘continues each Sunday afternoon with Lisa Ferguson on March 25th, Ed Fayle on April 1st, April 8th Tom Bartlett and Taylor Whiteside on April 15. The Small and Beginner Farmers of NH will meet on Tuesday, March 20, starting at 7 p.m. The topic is “What’s New on Your Farm?’ What are the things you from preceding page

This past Friday night the Bartlett Recreation Department held an activities night for fifth through eighth graders. What a fun time we all had. The kids got to play dodge ball, which they absolutely love. Granted it is not quite the same as when we played in gym class. Do you remember how dodge ball was for us? We used those hard red rubber balls that left huge welts. I was always the last one left standing on my team and always ended up with a big welt on my leg or the best ones were on my face. I especially loved having to go back to class after PE with the big red welt on my face. Nowadays, they play with these soft balls that you hardly even feel when they hit you. Guess we were raised to be tougher back then. Have a great week everyone.

DAILY CROSSWORD TRIBUNE MEDIA SERVICES

DILBERT
by Scott Adams
By Holiday Mathis SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). There’s an event coming up, and it will go better for you if you start making plans now. Let yourself free-associate about how you want this to go. Gather influences and talk with others about what’s coming. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Boundary issues may arise. You may feel like someone is giving unwanted advice or infringing on your privacy. Stand up for yourself. Quite simply, you want to be around people who let you be yourself. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Gather information. Get clarity on all communication. You are mighty intuitive now, but you’ll learn more by asking than by assuming you already have the answers. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You will get the chance to practice the fine art of compassionate detachment. You will show that you care about another person without getting overly caught up in the person’s life. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Moodiness can be a sign of a controlling person. If you can avoid those who ride a mood rollercoaster, do it. If not, then at least be aware of your reaction to those who use their moods to manipulate others. TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (March 16). You have an amazing gift of adaptability this year, and you’ll stretch, flex and grow yourself in order to meet the changing patterns of life. April shows you making money in a different way. You’ll love the artsy and intellectual influences that come in May. July brings your chance to show the world your talent. Gemini and Sagittarius people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 39, 17, 26, 12 and 4.
Get Fuzzy
ARIES (March 21-April 19). Be willing to ask yourself intriguing questions, such as: What are you looking forward to? The answer will be like an arrow pointing to your talents, personal strengths and life ambitions. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Telling and hearing too much may be a problem. The good news is that it means people want to share with you, and you want to share with them, too. The bad news is that too much sharing gets tedious. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Be patient enough to do what it takes to solve a problem. Go deeper. The first answer that’s given to you may not be the best. Keep asking “What else?” and “How else?” CANCER (June 22-July 22). It’s a good time for introspection, honesty and attention to the quieter needs of your soul. The outside world has no other choice but to reflect back to you what’s happening with your inner life. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Children have to learn that life is better with fewer sweets, less television and more fresh air. And you, playful Leo, are childlike enough now to need and heed the same lessons. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You may not be entirely pleased with yourself, but punishment is unnecessary and, in fact, would be counterproductive. Emphasize your positive characteristics, and try to ignore the behaviors you’d like to be rid of. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You may feel caught in between short- and longterm thinking. It’s actually a wonderful place to be. Too much long-term thinking is no fun, and thinking only in the short term is foolish. So enjoy this inbetween state for now.

THE CONWAY DAILY SUN, Friday, March 16, 2012— Page 21
Today is Friday, March 16, the 76th day of 2012. There are 290 days left in the year. Today’s Highlight in History: On March 16, 1912, future first lady Pat Nixon was born Thelma Catherine Ryan in Ely, Nev. On this date: In A.D. 37, Roman emperor Tiberius died; he was succeeded by Caligula. In 1521, Portuguese navigator Ferdinand Magellan reached the Philippines, where he was killed by natives the following month. In 1751, James Madison, fourth president of the United States, was born in Port Conway, Va. In 1802, President Thomas Jefferson signed a measure authorizing the establishment of the U.S. Military Academy at West Point, N.Y. In 1850, Nathaniel Hawthorne’s novel “The Scarlet Letter” was first published. In 1926, rocket science pioneer Robert H. Goddard successfully tested the first liquid-fueled rocket, in Auburn, Mass. In 1935, Adolf Hitler decided to break the military terms set by the Treaty of Versailles (vehrSY’) by ordering the rearming of Germany. In 1945, during World War II, American forces declared they had secured Iwo Jima, although pockets of Japanese resistance remained. In 1968, during the Vietnam War, the My Lai (mee ly) Massacre of Vietnamese civilians was carried out by U.S. Army troops; estimates of the death toll vary between 347 and 504. In 1972, in a nationally broadcast address, President Richard M. Nixon called for a moratorium on court-ordered school busing to achieve racial desegregation. In 1982, Claus Von Bulow was found guilty in Newport, R.I., of trying to kill his comatose wife, Martha, with insulin. (Von Bulow was acquitted in a retrial; his former wife, who was also known as “Sunny,” died in December 2008.) In 2003, American activist Rachel Corrie, 23, was crushed to death by an Israeli military bulldozer while trying to block the demolition of a Palestinian home in the Gaza Strip. One year ago: Pakistan abruptly freed CIA contractor Raymond Allen Davis, who had shot and killed two men in a gunfight in Lahore, after a deal was sealed to pay $2.34 million to the men’s families. Today’s Birthdays: Comedian-director Jerry Lewis is 86. Country singer Ray Walker (The Jordanaires) is 78. Movie director Bernardo Bertolucci is 71. Game show host Chuck Woolery is 71.

Help Wanted by Abigail Van Buren
DOCTOR FAILS TO EARN CLEAN BILL OF HEALTH FROM PATIENT
DEAR ABBY: I recently began going to a new doctor after the one I had been using retired. I like her. She shows a genuine interest in my well-being, seems to diagnose well and I get good results from her treatments. She doesn’t keep me waiting and has a charming, warm personality. So what’s the problem? She’s not very clean. There is sometimes dirt under her fingernails. Her white coat is tattered and filthy, and when she gets close there’s an odor that’s less than pleasant. Once after touching me, she washed her hands by sticking her fingertips under cold water for a few seconds -- no soap or scrubbing. She had not washed before touching me. There are so many good things about her I hate to lose her as a doctor. She’ll be insulted if I say anything. If I cancel an appointment, it will raise questions and lead to hurt feelings. What do I do? -- FREAKED OUT IN ALBANY DEAR FREAKED OUT: Find another doctor. (I was tempted to say, “Run for your life!”) As warm, charming, caring and attentive as your doctor may be, her poor hygiene is a danger to your health. That she would present herself to patients in the condition you have described and practice such poor hygiene makes me wonder how qualified she is to practice medicine. One other thing you should consider doing -- because you like her -- is to write her a letter explaining why you won’t be seeing her anymore. She obviously needs a wake-up call. DEAR ABBY: My mother is dying of old age and heart failure. It’s not unexpected and we are preparing for the end to come soon. The problem is I’m not a good housekeeper, and I am in marginal health. My husband is disabled and is, frankly,

a slob. I have given up trying to keep a clean house while caring for him, my mother and myself. I just don’t have the strength to do it all, and my husband does nothing except lie around on his bed watching TV or sleeping all day. I know when my mother passes, people will want to come here to visit or bring food. My house is so dirty and deplorable I don’t want anyone to come here. What should I do? I have thought about hiring a service, but I’m not sure I can afford it. Any other suggestions? -- OVERWHELMED AND TIRED IN TEXAS DEAR OVERWHELMED AND TIRED: Please accept my sympathy for the impending loss of your mother. Even when death is accepted as inevitable, it is nonetheless heart wrenching. I’ll offer two suggestions: The first is to talk to your religious adviser about your concerns, because it’s possible some volunteers from your mother’s church -- or your own -- might be kind enough to help you get your house in order to receive guests after the funeral. The other would be to request that guests meet afterward at the church reception hall or funeral home for refreshments. DEAR ABBY: I find it hard to deal with my P.E. teacher. She is rude, mean and she always calls me out. When you need to make a correction on your test, she throws the quiz at you and then you have to pick it up. She is very impatient also. Do you have any advice on how to deal with such a person? -- DONE WITH HER IN NORTH CAROLINA DEAR DONE WITH HER: Your teacher appears to be a troubled woman. The way to deal with her would be for your parents -- and the parents of any other students she is treating this way -- to bring it to the attention of the principal of the school so it can be addressed.

The Pittsburgh Pirates made 10 roster moves yesterday morning -- including optioning pitcher Jeff Locke (of Conway) to Class AAA — shrinking the size of their major league camp to 48 players. Locke, infielder Chase d’Arnaud and pitcher Rudy Owens were optioned to Class AAA. Pitcher Duke Welker was optioned to Class AA. They are all 40-man roster members, which is why they were optioned.

The MWV Pop Warner team was all smiles after winning the New England Regional semifinal last fall.

In two short years the Mountaineers football program grew from an idea to the realization of a New Hampshire State Championship in the international Pop Warner Little Scholars Football program. In 2011 the Mountaineers Patriot Division team was one of the final 14 teams in the nation, when it was ousted in the New England Championships by a powerful Brookfield, Connecticut team. Brookfield went on to win the national Pop Warner Super Bowl, as well as the International Super Bowl in the Unlimited weight division of Pop Warner. The program released the names of their 2011 MVP Award recipients, as elected by the coaches and staff of the MWV Mountaineers. Those players and volunteers chosen for awards were: Mountaineers Scholastic Award (to players with 90 or higher GPA): Hunter Bousquet (North Conway), Garrett Brown (Conway), Dominic Knox (Conway), Benjamin Kelly (Bartlett), Adam Mar-
