CONWAY — Funding for full-day kindergarten and a non-binding referendum on closing one of Conway's elementary schools are among the warrant articles up for discussion at the deliberative portion of

annual Conway School Meeting Monday at 6:30 p.m. in the Loynd Auditorium at Kennett High School. Generally, it looks like meeting might be a whole lot quieter than last year. So many people turned out in 2011 that the meeting had to be moved from the auditorium to the gymnasium. The large turn-

out was created by an 11 percent cut to the proposed budget by the Conway Municipal Budget Committee. Budgeteers wanted school officials to get a handle on spending. It appears they did with this budget as 15 out of 17 members of the budget commitsee MEETING page 8

CONWAY — Better late than never? A winter storm at long last hit Mount Washington Valley and other parts of New Hampshire Thursday, the first day of March. Local schools were closed in SAU 9, as were many other local organizations such as the Gibson Center for Senior Services. No major accidents were reported as of 4 p.m. Thursday. Conway police recorded two accidents earlier in the day, one of which caused damage to two vehicles in an accident on Hurricane Road and another when a plow truck hit a Jeep in a driveway, but no injuries.

Competitive yoga? Yeah, it is a thing

–––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– DIGEST––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––

(NY Times) — For Kelsea Bangora, New York’s 2011 yoga asana champion, the conversation usually goes like this: “Yoga champion? How does that work?” “Well, it’s like a dance performance, sort of, or a gymnastics routine, but not really.” Others will be vying for that title when the United States Yoga Federation hosts the ninth New York Regional and National Yoga Asana Championship Friday night through Sunday afternoon at the Hudson Theater in Midtown Manhattan. Before a panel of five judges, participants will have three minutes to perform seven postures, five required and two of their choice. In the youth division, participants ages 11 to 17 will perform six postures total. The top two finishers in each group — men, women and youth — will proceed to compete in the Bishnu Charan Ghosh Cup, the international championship held in Los Angeles in June. In Sanskrit, yoga means to connect or bind together. Body with mind. Breath with movement. Inner with outer. Patanjali, who wrote the Yoga Sutras thousands of years ago, posited that yoga created holistic health by easing the fluctuations of the mind. Over time, many limbs of yoga formed. Hatha yoga, developed in the 15th century, is the physical practice that most Americans are familiar with, referred to as asana.

Syrian rebels say they are Official: withdrawing from enclave Accused Americans

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

BEIRUT, Lebanon (NY Times) — After a bruising, 27-day siege under intensifying bombardment, rebels holed up in the shattered Baba Amr neighborhood of the central Syrian city of Homs announced a “tactical withdrawal” on Thursday, apparently handing victory to forces loyal to President Bashar al-Assad but raising concerns about the plight

of civilians there. A campaign of raids and arrests began almost immediately in the area, according to the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, based in Britain, which said 17 people had died in Baba Amr on Thursday. Later, the International Committee of the Red Cross said that Syrian authorities had granted

it a “green light” to enter the neighborhood on Friday in order to bring humanitarian aid and attempt to evacuate as many people as possible. “If the journalists are there then this applies to them as well,” said Hicham Hassan, a Red Cross spokesman, in reference to two Western journalists had been trapped there since last week.

WASHINGTON (NY Times) — The Senate on Thursday killed a Republican effort to let employers and health insurance companies deny coverage for contraceptives and other services to which they have religious or moral objections. The vote was 51 to 48. In effect, the Senate upheld President Obama’s birth control policy. The policy guarantees that women have access to insurance coverage for contraceptives at no charge, through an employer’s health plan or directly from an insurance company. The vote generally followed party lines. Senator Olympia J. Snowe of Maine, who said this

week that she would not run for re-election, was the only Republican to vote with Democrats to kill the measure. The challenge to the president’s policy was supported by 45 Republicans and 3 Democrats: Senators Bob Casey of Pennsylvania, Joe Manchin III of West Virginia and Ben Nelson of Nebraska; Casey and Manchin are up for re-election this year, while Nelson is retiring this year. The vote followed four days of impassioned debate in which senators from both parties weighed the competing claims of religious freedom and the reproductive rights of women.

leave Egypt

CAIRO (NY Times) — Americans who had been stuck in Egypt left the country Thursday evening after Egyptian officials lifted a travel ban imposed as part of a politically charged criminal case against four nonprofit groups here, a senior official with the Obama administration and witnesses at the airport said. United States officials originally said seven Americans accused in the case had left, but one of the seven chose to stay behind, according to a lawyer involved in the case and an American involved in negotiations with the Egyptian authorities. At least four other foreigners who work for the nonprofits left, according to the American who was part of the talks. The Americans were allowed to go after $4 million in bail was posted and they agreed to return for their trial. Officials are pressing to have the case dropped before then.

Obama says Mideast tension driving up gas prices NASHUA — President Barack Obama laid out his energy plan Thursday during his second New Hampshire visit in about three months. Obama delivered his speech to a packed house at Nashua Community College. Obama drew cheers when he said domestic old production must be augmented by investment in wind, solar and biomass fuels. He used his plan as a springboard to take a shot at the Republican presidential field. “You know what the essence of their plan is going to be, which is, ‘Step 1: drill. Step 2: drill. Step 3: keep drilling,’” Obama said. “’And by the way, we’ll drill in your backyard.’” Obama said political rhetoric that

rising gas prices can be linked to his administration is false, saying that tensions with Iran and rising worldwide demand are responsible for the increases. “You know that we can’t drill our way to lower gas prices,” he said. “There are no quick fixes or silver bullets. If somebody tells you there are, they are not telling you the truth.” The president showed a chart that he said shows that the country’s dependency on foreign oil is trending in the right direction. “The bar on the left shows that six years ago, 60 percent of the oil we used was imported,” he said. “Since I took office, our dependency on foreign oil has gone down every single year.”

The president also set his sights on Congress, calling for an end to the decades of taxpayer subsidies for oil companies. “Does anyone really think that Congress should give them another $4 billion this year?” Obama said. “Of course not. It’s outrageous. It’s inexcusable. And I’m asking Congress to end this oil industry giveaway right away.” While the visit was billed as an official White House event, it had the feel of a campaign stop, with an enthusiastic crowd cheering at Obama’s points. The president said in his remarks that lasted just over 20 minutes that there are no silver bullets to the country’s energy crisis.

“This is not going to be solved by one party,” he said. “It’s not going to be solved by one administration. It’s not going to be solved by slogans. It’s not going to be solved by phony rhetoric. It’s going to be solved by a sustained all-of-the-above energy strategy.” One energy-related topic important to New Hampshire that did not come up was the controversial Northern Pass project, which would bring highcapacity power lines through the state from Canada. Next week, first lady Michelle Obama is expected to be in the Granite State focusing on the issue of childhood obesity. —Courtesy of WMUR

Parents: Most pageants not like ‘Toddlers And Tiaras’ NASHUA — Are child pageants just another fun activity for children, or do they push them too far too soon? Pageants are held in many places, including New Hampshire, and can involve children as young as infants. The competitions have been getting a lot of criticism lately mainly because of the TV show “Toddlers and Tiaras,” but some who take part in them say the comparison isn’t fair. Patti Muccioli’s 5-year-old daughter, Siena, is the 2011 Little Miss New Hampshire. She has gowns, a crown, headshots and autograph cards. Her mother said pageants are a fun outlet for her, but they’re getting a bad rap, even with her schoolmates. “That was literally what a little girl said,” Muccioli said. “You can’t come to my birthday party because you do pageants.” Muccioli said the reputation comes

from the show “Toddlers and Tiaras,” which shows young children wearing a lot of makeup and adult-looking clothes. Critics say the pageants sexualize children, and the show highlights driven, obsessive parents pushing their children too far. But Muccioli said that what’s on TV is not reality. “We don’t go to the extreme of giving them Red Bull, keeping them up to 1 a.m. so they practice,” Muccioli said. “It’s not that.” Muccioli said that in the pageants her daughter attends, children show off a talent, do interviews, and wear gowns and swimsuits. They also do wear some makeup. Parent Marci Collins started her daughter, Phoebe, in pageants when she was 5. She said that contrary to the stereotype, many pageants limit what children can look like. While some pageants

allow everything from hairpieces to fake teeth, Collins said her daughter, now 10, only competes in “natural pageants.” “Because, who knows? In a ‘glitz’ pageant you could have so much makeup on you don’t even look like you,” Phoebe said. “That’s why I like the natural pageants.” Parents of pageant competitors said that critics ignore many of the positives, such as the enjoyment the girls get from dressing up and the confidence they can gain. Emmalin, 8, of Nashua, already has a pageant crown and headshots. Her mother, Jessica Dearborn, said her daughter was diagnosed as nonverbal, so she had her try pageants to boost her confidence. Dearborn said it worked. “She had to introduce herself in the pageant, and she did it without stuttering,” Dearborn said. “A couple of years ago, you would have never thought she

would have done that ever.” Siena’s big sister, former Miss New Hampshire Krystal Muccioli, started pageants at age 6. She said those onstage skills translate years later. “I can get in front of a class of 300 people and not be nervous at all,” she said. But both Krystal Muccioli and the other families agreed that there are parents who go too far, which can be harmful to children. The advocacy group Parents Television Council said that “Toddlers and Tiaras” sends a message that “the way to a get an adult’s attention is by dressing up, putting on makeup. ... Intelligence and hard work are lesser values.” The parents News 9 spoke to said they agree. “That program, to me, is not giving us a good image at all,” said Jennifer Rienert, of Hooksett. —Courtesy of WMUR

Author Kim John EMS Randonee night tour to kick off Payne to talk on 16th Hannes Schneider Meister Cup simplicity parenting CONWAY — Family counselor Kim John Payne says that when he would take on a new client, he would offer them a year of therapy or have him spending just one day at their house. "Many of today’s behavioral issues come from children having too much stuff and living a life that is too fast. I would visit from breakfast to bedtime, I helped the parents simplify their routines and lives and very often the parents see an improvement their child’s behavior within days,” says Payne. Payne will present a simplicity parenting conference at the Salyards Center for Arts in Conway, on Thursday, March 8, starting at 6:30 p.m. This event is sponsored by the White Mountain Waldorf School. Payne asserts that many of today’s child behavior problems comes from TMS - Too Much Stuff. “All children are quirky, that’s what makes them lovable, who they are. But these cumulative stresses slide those quirks along the behavior spectrum into disorders – the dreaded “Ds.” Simplicity Parenting is a way to slide the child back down the spectrum. They go from having a label back to being lovable and quirky.” Payne has traveled through Asia and Africa helping families devastated by AIDS or war. He says children in western countries have many of the same stresses – but for the opposite reasons. “There is not a lot of difference between how kids over stressed are acting in parts of Asia and Africa. The children in the developing world often have had negative sensory overwhelm, and we give our children sensory overwhelm here — too many trinkets, too many choices, too much information — and this causes a cumulative stress issue in kids that leads to behavioral disorders. Our children are living in the undeclared war on childhood.” Payne will help parents at the talk create their own Simplicity Menu for their family, breaking it down into five layers: Simplify the environment (books, toys etc), meal times and food, schedules and information. He asks that parents see childhood as an unfolding experience, not an enrichment opportunity. “If it is an enrichment opportunity, then we’re in an arms race, trying to get the most for our child. This is fundamentally a con, and not healthy," Payne says. He adds that children respond well to this approach. “You choose whatever fits naturally in your family life. When a family simplifies, the kids love it. It’s not a battle. We think kids will put up resistance but they don’t; they like it.” “It’s about warmth and connecting. In simplifying parenting we get closer to our children, they no longer have to fight for our attention, everything becomes easier and it is actually achieved by doing less.

'Too much, too fast, too soon' creates stress for kids

CONWAY — Alpine ski touring, or randonee skiing, is increasingly popular in ski country, as ski equipment manufacturers produce sturdier, lighter, and more sophisticated ski gear that is equally efficient at free-heel climbs using climbing skins and descents in which the binding converts to hold the boot heel on the ski. The 16th annual Hannes Schneider Meister Cup Race, to be held at Cranmore Mountain Resort March 2 and 3, will feature an untimed, social nighttime ski tour and dinner for skiers on randonee and telemark gear as part of the opening festivities on Friday evening, March 2. The namesake of the race, Hannes Schneider, is considered to be the founder of ski instruction as it is still structured today, as well as an originator of the mountain resort industry. Schneider developed his techniques before the invention of ski lifts, and as a practiced and passionate backcountry skier in his native Arlberg region of Austria, used uphill alpine touring techniques daily. EMS, whose North Conway store is a valley center for backcountry skiing equipment, will

EDITORIAL

Worse Than Bad Behavior The school’s handling of complaints against school board member Randy Davison has made two things clear: The school board is ineffective bordering on inept, and the school administration is not interested in open and transparent government. Both are badly in need of reform. Throughout this process the school board stood by watching as its administration wasted taxpayer dollars on lawyers and court battles. At no point did board members question whether the doomed effort was in the best interests of the residents they were elected to serve, and individual members repeatedly pled ignorance when asked about the issue. Complacency and ignorance, however, are to be expected from this board. This is the same board that was unaware this year’s prom will be in Meredith. They learned that news from a Sun reporter. It is the same board that is unwilling to make hard decisions, like whether to close a school. They will be asking voters, who have no information about the implications or intricacies of such a move, to make the decision. The school board has transformed from a panel that directs policy into a panel that strives to avoid controversy. Instead of a political body it has become a cheerleading squad for the administration. The administration, meanwhile, has been left to do as it pleases. At almost every turn, top school officials have dodged transparency efforts. They sat by five years ago when the school board swept the complaints against Davison under the table, content to see them quietly disappear. Then the administration denied requests under the Right To Know law for the paperwork, forcing the matter into court. Even after a judge ordered the school to release the documents, the administration blacked out much of the material (something school officials went back and undid under threat of repeated court action, and something the school board was again ignorant of). This story is not about Davison. His behavior at sport games may be objectionable, but the decision by school officials past and present to subvert the public’s right to know is reprehensible. The school board’s inability to rein in the administration led by superintendent Carl Nelson is inexcusable. As a result of the school’s mismanagement, Davison has been subjected to repeated unflattering front page stories. That is a shame, because Davison is one of the few school board members who doesn’t simply line up behind the administration. He asks questions, presses the board for decisions and expects accountability. That type of push-back is exactly what elected officials should be doing, particularly when setting policy for something as complex and costly as the school. Voters should think about the Randy Davison stories: not what they say about Davison, but what those stories say about the school.

No Room for Education in the Clown Car

The O’Brien leadership team of the NH House of Representatives continues to insist that job creation is their top priority this year. Nothing on the docket of proposed bills backs up their claims. They’re intent on wrestling control of women’s bodies away from them, divorcing gay couples, making New Hampshire a right to work state, removing local control from towns and school boards, taking over for the judicial branch, and eliminating public education. It seems that these legislators believe that corporate America is dying to relocate to states without an educated work force, and a 19th century infrastructure. This has a great deal to do with the influence of Free Staters, teabaggers, and John Birchers in our legislature. These people are opposed to all things public, and their influence in the Republican Party is pushing the party even further to the right. They hate public education, public libraries, and public property. Their idea of education is a child being homeschooled by an obedient, pregnant, stay at home mom, who isn’t taking jobs away from the men who are entitled to them, or using birth control. These are the same people who rewrote Ronald Reagan’s history, turning him from an unindicted co-conspirator into a saint. They’ve also rewritten the Bible, the Constitution, and are now hard at work on rewriting U.S. history. They venerate the founding fathers — but they love the founding fathers of their imagination. They stick their fingers in their ears, shouting “la-la-la” when the founder’s support for public education is mentioned. Jefferson and Adams were both big proponents of public education. “If a nation expects to be ignorant and free, in a state of civilization, it expects what never was and never will be,” opined Jefferson. There have been at least 50 anti-education bills filed by N.H. legislators over the last biennium. Last year’s HB340 stipulated that you’d get a tax credit if you kept out of school. The Defending N.H. Public Education website is packed full of information about all of these bills, including where they are in the committee and hearing process. They’ve analyzed the votes by all 400 legislators and come up with a report card on education voting. In Carroll County, Representatives Fleck and Knox earn a grade of B. This is the highest score for a Carroll County representative. Representatives Umberger, Scala, and Schmidt all earned C’s. Reps Babson, McConkey, and Merrow all earn D’s. Gene Chandler, Betsey Patton, and Jeb Bradley all receive an F grade for their votes on education. One would think there couldn’t be anything lower than an F — but one would be wrong. Representatives Pettengill, McCarthy, and Tregenza all scored an F minus. Tregenza, by the way, is a substitute teacher in the Madison public school system. Governor Lynch has endorsed CACR12, an amendment to the N.H. Constitution that would take the courts out of education altogether, and put the Legislature in charge. The current Legislature is the best possible argument against this amendment. This same legislature has tried to opt out of No Child Left Behind, a mandate that brings some $70 million a year to the state. The loss of that funding would create a budget hole that would be filled by … your property taxes. There was a lot of noise generated about this in New Hampshire’s mostly right wing media, which caused the O’Brien junta to lay this bill on the table. It will undoubtedly be back. All of their worst ideas come back, again and again. New Hampshire ranks 50th in the nation for

state support of public education. It’s always a treat to realize that Mississippi is more concerned about education than New Hampshire is. We also rank 50th in the nation for state support of our university system. The current legislature is doing its level best to eliminate all state funding for our university system. The Legislature passed HB 542, and mustered up enough votes to override Governor Lynch’s veto. This new law allows parents to demand an alternative curriculum for anything they find objectionable. In a class of 30 students, that could be a whole lot of alternative. What will happen when the class is tested, if different students have different information on particular subjects? How will this affect these kids later on, when they’re interested in going to college? Professionals with degrees in education will undoubtedly be forced to teach anti-evolution and Holocaust denial alternatives. It seems the libertarian crowd (an estimated 150 legislators) has hit on the idea of lawsuits as a means for defunding state government. HB 219 would take all authority from the N.H. Department. of Education and give it to the state Legislature. Again: The current legislature is its own best argument against this. Something they won’t tell you: the N.H. Department of Education sets higher standards than the federal government. Instead of high standards, this legislature filed HB 39, a bill to actually lower education standards. HB 1607/SB 372 are essentially the same thing: a voucher program. In other words, it takes money from the public schools and diverts it to private, religious, and home schooling. There is no provision in the current draft for academic accountability. The N.H. Constitution is also quite clear that no public monies will be used to fund religious education. Both HB 1607 and SB 372 are right out of ALEC, which is the American Legislative Exchange Council. ALEC is a group of some 300 corporations that drafts model legislation, and relies on the 2,000 legislative members to push the legislation in their states. Theirs is a far right agenda, funded largely by conservative donors like the Koch brothers, the Coors family, and the Sciafe family. ALEC was formed in 1973, and has largely operated in secret, up till now. This voucher bill isn’t a New Hampshire bill at all. These are bills presented by puppets in all 50 states, doing the bidding of their corporate overlords. Who are the New Hampshire puppets? The sponsors of HB 1607 are Representatives Bettencourt, Hill, Smith, McGuire, Speaker O’Brien, Tucker, Bates, Silva, and our own Gene Chandler. Sponsors of SB 372 are Senators Forsythe, Bragdon, Carson, DeBlois, Groen, Lambert, Luther, Sanborn, White, Gallus, and our very own Jeb Bradley. If you care about education, it’s time to start paying close attention. For more information on N.H. anti-education bills: www.dnhpe.org. For more information on ALEC: alecexposed.org. “The whole people must take upon themselves the education of the whole people and be willing to bear the expenses of it. There should not be a district of one square mile without a school in it, not founded by a charitable individual, but maintained at the public expense of the people themselves.” President John Adams Susan Bruce is a writer and activist who lives in the Mount Washington Valley.

Jackson Candidates Night March 4 at Whitney Center To the editor: Two candidates are running for the position of selectman in Jackson: Frank Benesh and Bob Thompson. The Jackson Candidates’ Night, for these candidates to debate town issues, will be held on Sunday, March 4, beginning at 7 p.m. at the Whitney Community Center. The purpose of this candidates’ night is to allow Jackson voters an opportunity to see and hear both candidates and observe how they respond to issues that are important to the voters. Voters wishing to ask questions may submit them via email before noon on Saturday, March 3, to: can-

didatesnightinjackson@gmail.com — or in writing beforehand at the event. No verbal questions or statements may come from the audience during the session. Candidates will have an opportunity to present their opening and closing statements and to answer voters’ submitted questions. Tuesday, March 13, is voting day in Jackson. All are welcome to attend the candidates’ night. Decaf coffee, tea, and desserts will be coordinated by volunteers and available before the session begins. Joan Aubrey Betsey Harding

Go to town hall and sign up for the election today To the editor: Tag – You’re It! I won a seat on the Conway Budget Committee last year. Now it’s your turn. I highly recommend you go to town hall and sign up for the election today. I’ll be serving for a few more years and welcome you to contact me for a pep talk, or to answer questions on what it’s like. People said it would be difficult — it wasn’t. People said it would be boring — it wasn’t. People said you’ll regret it — I don’t. I’m super busy with a business, a family and other community pursuits. I

find this to be one of the most gratifying and important things I’ve ever done and I sincerely look forward to the next years of my current term. If you’re someone who cares about this community — if you’re someone who takes time to do things right — if you see ways things could be better — this is for you. Your time is now — step up and do something bold — and make this community proud. Brian Charles Conway Municipal Budget Committee

Attend deliberative session, vote to turn lights back on To the editor: I am writing to encourage all business owners and employees, who are residents of the town of Conway, to attend the deliberative meeting for the town of Conway on March 7 at Kennett High School at 7 p.m. and vote for the motion to turn our street lights back on. I am sure many of you have been following the debate on our streetlights over the past several months. The board of selectmen for the town of Conway voted 3-1-1 on Feb. 28 to recommend that the motion to turn our lights on be accepted at the deliberative meeting. This could not have happened without the diligent support and work by Janice Crawford, Mary Seavey, Joe Quirk and many of you

who may have attended the selectmen’s meetings on this subject, or written to the selectmen. But getting our lights back will still not happen without the consent of all voters at the deliberative meeting. We need all Conway voters to attend the deliberative meeting and vote for the article to get our lights back. Please do everything you can to attend the deliberative meeting yourself if you are a Conway resident, and encourage any of your employees who are Conway residents to also attend the meeting and vote for this initiative. We are so close — let’s make it happen! Peter Edwards, president North Conway Village Association

Good government is the result of good citizenship To the editor: Good government is the result of good citizenship. Leading up to and during town and school meetings of spring 2011, Conway experienced extremely contentious and divisive politics among our elected officials, our boards and a trickle down of nastiness felt throughout the community. In particular, the annual deliberative school session was extremely nasty and uncivil. Directly as a response to this concern, several citizens became involved in local government (myself included). This year our budget committee was at full membership for the first time in years. Three candidates for school board were elected from five candidates in April 2011. Not coincidentally, the effectiveness and enhanced civility with

which local boards have conducted business leading to deliberative meetings this winter has been much improved from a year ago. Hopefully the 2012 candidate signup is still forthcoming today. The town clerk accepts filing for office up until 5 p.m. at the town hall. As of Thursday morning, there was one opening and no contest for two Conway School Board positions. There are three openings undeclared for on the budget committee. This is bad for local government, bad for citizens and bad for democracy. A return to apathy in local government could lead to a return to special interests and added contentiousness in our local politics. Here’s encouragement to throw your hat in the ring.

MEETING from page one

tee are supporting the proposed 201213 school budget. The budget is also being unanimously supported by the Conway School Board. Last month, the budget sailed through with budgeteers praising the school board for its effort. They supported the budget 15-2 (Ray Shakir and Doug Swett in the minority) and never offered an alternative figure to what the school board is proposing. The total proposed operating budget excluding special articles is $31,901,212. The default budget, which would kick in if the proposed budget is voted down, is $31,855,122. Last year's adopted budget was $32,958,413. Conway's share of that price tag is $15 million with the sending towns (Albany, Bartlett, Eaton, Freedom, Jackson, Madison and Tamworth) picking up the rest of the tab. Voters at deliberative meeting can amend the budget. Final voting will take place in April. The school board has over 20 warrant articles, totaling $1,586,419, that are not part of the presented budget. Dick Klement, the school, board's representative to the budget committee, explained that a decrease in health insurance rates by nearly $500,000 and a drop in special education costs contributed primarily to the dip in the proposed budget. "I don't see how we can turn it down," budgeteer Bill Marvel said and praised the school board. "For the overall budget, I'm impressed." "Me too," Dave Sordi, budget committee chairman, said. "I think the school system did a very good job. It's very good news." Ted Sares, also of the committee, agreed. "They managed (their budget) as opposed to the town who just let it happen," he said. "I think it's a big difference to the school's favor, they actually did management — they weren't robotic." Marvel was pleased to see the drop in health insurance, but cautioned that the chief culprits in a rising budget tend to be staffing. "Increasing in personnel is the worst impact we can make on a budget," he said. The budget committee is endorsing 18 of the 20 warrant articles it was charged to oversee. Committee members did not support articles No. 17 and 20. 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, 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. 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 literacy; 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 available to students. Currently, a typical kindergarten schedule includes one 45-minute special (art, music, PE, 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 full-day pre-kindergarten programing just to switch to a half-day program once they reach kindergarten. All-day kindergarten will preserve continuity in 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. "Conceptually and philosophically I'm for it," Sares said at the budget committee's vote in Feb. 16, "but I think the school board should have kept this in the budget and presented it that way." Klement explained a warrant article was the only way the 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 see next page

from preceding page

support the article. Klement said had the school's budget committee supported full-day kindergarten, the item would have gone directly into the budget "This was the only mechanism to get it here," Klement said. Budgeteers also narrowly voted against Article No. 20 which is for $98,166 to provide for four academic teams at Kennett Middle School. The article is supported by the school board 4-3 (Davison, Klement and Rick Breton in the minority). The budget committed voted in opposition 8-7-2 with McKinney, Loynd, Seavey, DeFeo, DiGregorio, Charles and Klement in the minority and Mosca and Turner abstaining. Klement explained the board's budget committee was in a 4-4 deadlock on the item, which would have killed it, but the board followed the same path as Article No. 17 and made it a warrant article. "The SAU member (Gray) vote came from a woman whose devotion to education could not be challenged," Marvel said. "She's been on school board's since most of the people in Conway have lived. She is convinced this can be managed (three teaching teams rather than four) and not have an adverse effect on education." Article No. 16 — for $22,548 to fund 30 percent of the student advocate position at Kennett High — received the smallest amount of support of any of the articles the budget committee endorsed. The voted was 9-8 in favor, with Marvel, Mosca, Karen Umberger, Sares, Danielle Santuccio, John Edgerton, Shakir and Swett in the minority. The post was previously funded through an Ed Jobs grant, which is no longer available. The article was supported by the school board 6-1 (Randy Davison in the minority). Other warrant articles and votes were: No. 3 is the Kennett High facilities maintenance fund for $54,443 ($36,380 will be offset by sending towns). Supported by the board 7-0. Supported by the budget committee 17-0. No. 4 is Kennett Middle School facilities maintenance fund for $17,086 ($7,681 to be offset by sending towns). Supported by the board 7-0. Supported by the budget committee 17-0. No. 5 is elementary schools' facilities maintenance fund for $9,900 ($1,271 to be offset by sending towns). Supported by the board 7-0. Supported by the budget committee 17-0. Articles 3-5 are required under the 20-year tuition contract with sending towns Albany, Bartlett, Eaton, Freedom, Jackson, Madison and Tamworth. No. 6 is a new two-year contract agreement between the school board and the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees (bus drivers and custodians) to fund employee salaries and benefits. It seeks $49,340 for 2012-13 and $50,058 for 2013-14. Board supports 7-0. Supported by the budget committee 16-1 (Shakir in the minority). No. 7 is for a one-year collective bargaining agreement between the school board and the Conway Education Association (teachers) for the 2012-13 school year to fund employee salaries and benefit and seeks $359,815. Sup-

ported by the board 6-0-1 (Davison abstained). Supported by the budget committee 13-3-1 (Shakir, Swett and Umberger in the minority and Loynd abstained). No. 8 is for a two-year collective bargaining agreement between the school board and the Conway Educational Support Personnel to fund employee salaries and benefits. It seeks $13,132 for 2012-13 and $54,569 for 2013-14. Board supports 7-0. Supported by the budget committee 15-2 (Shakir and Swett in the minority). No. 9 is for Project SUCCEED (Schools Under Contract Creating Enriching Extended Days) at John Fuller, Pine Tree and Conway Elementary for $29,925. Organizers of the program anticipate $20,000 in revenue to offset taxes, and additional grants would be sought. Supported by the board 7-0. Supported by the budget committee 15-2 (Shakir and Swett in the minority). No. 10 is for the school buildings maintenance fund for $100,000 (the fund will be capped at $500,000). Supported by the board 7-0. Supported by the budget committee 14-3 (Edgerton, Shakir and Swett in the minority). No. 11 is a capital reserve fund for buses in the amount of $186,000 for the purchase of two school buses for the 2012-13 school year. Supported by the board 7-0. Supported by the budget committee 16-1 (Shakir in the minority). No. 12 is for the first of a three-year phase for the Conway School District's technology plan, $75,000. Supported by the board 7-0. Supported by the budget committee 15-2 (Shakir and Swett in the minority). No. 13 is for $55,000 to purchase and install a new heating and ventilation unit at the Kennett Middle School. Supported by the board 7-0. Supported by the budget committee 16-1 (Shakir in the minority). No. 14 is for an expendable trust for special education for $100,000 (the fund will be capped at $500,000). Supported by the board 6-1 (Davison in the minority). Supported by the budget committee 13-4 (Edgerton, Shakir, Swett and Umberger in the minority). No. 15 is for $37,002 to 70 percent fund the sous chef position in the MWV Career and Technical Center. The position was previously funded through a Carl Perkins Federal Grant which is no longer available. Supported by the board 7-0. Supported by the budget committee 13-4 (Marvel, Shakir, Swett and Sares in the minority). No. 18 is for $105,000 to replace a portion of roof at John Fuller School. Supported by the board 7-0. Supported by the budget committee 15-2 (Edgerton and Sares in the minority). No. 19 is for $115,000 to replace a portion of roof at Kennett Middle School. Supported by the board 7-0. Supported by the budget committee 16-1 (Edgerton in the minority). There is a non-binding referendum question on the warrant. Article No. 21 asks voters if they support closing an elementary school. If the majority favor closing one of the three elementary schools, the school board would then conduct a study to see which school makes the most sense both financially and from an educational standpoint and move forward.

SNOW from page one

A spokesman for Carroll County Sheriff's Department said as of Thursday afternoon it had been “a quiet day, with a few [vehicle] slip-offs, but no major damage and no injuries.” As of press time Thursday, Ski NH was reporting 4 to 7 inches of fresh new snow at local areas, with a winter storm warning issued by the National Weather Service of Gray, Maine, through 9 p.m. Thursday. The National Weather Service forecast 8 to 12 inches for northern Carroll County, with a chance of more snow showers Friday afternoon. An additional accumulation of 1 to 3 inches was expected for Friday night, with rain or snow showers predicted for Saturday, when high temperatures were expected to climb to the lower 40s. Sunday was expected to be mostly cloudy, with highs in the mid-30s. Boost to ski areas Despite Saturday's wet forecast, the arrival of natural snow was hailed by ski area and ski touring center representatives, as well as snowmobile operators. Many ski areas have relied on mostly man-made snow up until this point. The snow fell on the tail end of the second of two busy school February vacation weeks. “The snow is a beautiful thing! We’ve received 6-plus inches of new snow throughout the day at Attitash Mountain Resort,” said Laura Tuveson of Attitash in Bartlett. Peter Gagne of Northeast Extremes Snowmobiling if Bartlett and Bretton Woods said the snow is helping to create excitement — but he noted that

this is traditionally one of the busiest times of the year for snowmobile operators in New Hampshire. “The state SnowDeo happens in Colebrook Friday and Saturday, so yeah, there will be a lot of sledders in the state,” said Gagne. “We were already booked for the weekend anyway,” he added, “but because of the snow, the phones have been ringing today. That's all good as we head into midweek and next weekend,” said Gagne Thursday afternoon, noting that snowmobile trails in Bear Notch are now “100 percent groomed and open with a 10- to 16-inch base.” “Whether we're able to be open the weekends later in the month after that, who knows, as it all depends on the weather and snow,” said Gagne. John Garland of Bear Notch Ski Touring said that center had received 10 inches as of 4 p.m., and it was still falling. “This will be good, because it will give us a longer winter. Friday will be beautiful — I'm not sure what Saturday will bring, but this snow will help to keep the interest in skiing high,” said Garland. “The snow is coming now — hopefully this will help to keep the skiers coming,” he said. Local National Weather Service cooperative observer Ed Bergeron of H.E.B. Engineers of North Conway said the March 1 storm helps bring what has been a low snowfall year overall more up to the average for the past 30 years. He cautioned, however, that those totals are somewhat misleading, because they include the two snow storms that the region received in the fall for Halloween and Thanksgiving. “[Not counting Thursday's totals],

we are at 60.3 inches as of this morning for the year to date for snowfall. The season average for the past 30 years is 86 inches, so we are a little below with two months to go, so we have a ways to go,” said Bergeron Thursday morning as the snow came down. According to Bergeron, snowfall totals were down for December (9.1 inches compared to the average of 18 inches), up slightly for January (21.1 inches versus the average of 17 inches), and down for February (11 inches compared to the 30-year average of 16.3 inches). It all underscores the work that local snow makers and groomers have done up to this point to offer skiing for Christmas Week, Martin Luther King Jr. Weekend and these past two vacation weeks. The good news is that southern New Hampshire and parts of Massachusetts received snow in this storm, which is always the best marketing tool ski country can receive. It's known as the “Backyard Principle" — i.e., snow in people's yards down south motivates them to come north and ski here. Bergeron, who does the local morning weather report at 7:45 a.m. on WMWV 93.5-FM's “Morning Weather Show” with Roy “the Skiing DJ” Prescott, is just back from a ski trip to Grand Truckee, Calif. “They're having a poor snow year there, too — there's no snow below elevations of 6,000 feet and 3 feet at higher elevations,” said Bergeron, who added, “But out there in California, they don't have to worry so much about the Backyard Principle. People play golf and surf, and they head to the mountains to ski.”

Ruth N. (Jones) Trumbull, of Littleton, formally of Fryeburg, Maine and Jensen Beach, Fla., the originator of The Joe Jones Shop passed away on, Saturday, Feb. 25, 2012 at Maine Medical Center in Portland, Maine from complications of lung disease. Ruth was born May 29, 1922; her twin brother, Richard, passed away at nine months of age from pneumonia. Ruth was one of nine children of Fred and Gertrude Northrop, of Conway. She graduated from Kennett High School and married her first husband, Joseph A. Jones. In the early 1950's, together they created The Joe Jones Shop, which was located on Kearsarge Street where Hooligans Restaurant now stands. She also kept a rooming house where she rented rooms both in her home and over the shop. Joe Jones passed away in 1965. Sadly, the shop and home burned in 1968 and she and her second husband, Charles F. Trumbull, moved the Joe Jones Shop to Mechanic and Main Street, its current location. Ruth and Charlie sold the shop in 1973 to the Badger family along with other partners. Ruth became a snowbird and traveled back and forth between Jensen Beach, Florida and her summer home at Lovewell's Pond in Fryeburg. Upon the decease of Charles F. Trumbull, Ruth became best friends with her neighbor in Florida,

Edward J. Connolly and they shared 23 wonderful years until his death in 2008. Ruth leaves behind her brother, Willmont Northrop and his wife Delores, of San Diego, Calif.; Ruth's daughters, Jo-Ann Jones, of North Conway, and Carol-Ann Solari, of Fryeburg, Maine; four grandchildren; six great grandchildren; nieces and nephews; her two stepsons, Allan Trumbull and wife, Cathy, Fred Trumbull and wife, Nancy; and five step grandchildren. Ruth will always affectionately be known as "Mamie," a name she chose for herself when her first grandchild was born. Ruth was a very private person, but was always straight forward. At her request there will be no services. In lieu of flowers memorial contributions may be made in Ruth's memory to Eastern Slope Ski Club, P.O. Box 348, North Conway, NH, 03860 for the benefit of the Junior Ski program. Arrangements are made with Wood Funeral Home in Fryeburg, Maine. Online condolences may be expressed to the family at www.woodfuneralhome.org.

Richard E. Leavitt, 62, of Moultonborough Neck, died peacefully in his sleep of natural causes at Laconia General Hospital on Feb. 14, 2012. He was born in North Conway on Jan. 5, 1950, the son of Herbert and Lillian (Lyman) Leavitt. Along with his parents, Richard, was predeceased by his brother, Billy, and sister, Vera. He is survived by his siblings John and Betty, nephews John, Jeff, Richard and Daniel, guardians Dawn and Scott Ferguson as well as loving extended family. Richard lived most of his life in Conway with his family. New Horizons (formerly Center of Hope) was a large part of his social life and connection to the community. It was through New Horizons that Richard (who lived with Down syndrome) was able to realize his unique ability to connect with people. His volunteer work always involved socializing with people whether it was delivering meals on wheels or greeting people at the Gibson Center for lunch. Richard loved music, never missing a chance to go to sing-a-longs, dances or karaoke. He liked listening to Patsy Cline and Elvis and could melt any ones heart when he sang â&#x20AC;&#x153;Let Me Call You Sweetheart.â&#x20AC;?

When Richard was 45, he moved to a group home in Conway where he could always find a peer to talk with and practice his wry sense of humor. At age 54, Richard joined the family of Don and Nancy Barnhart in Chocorua. With the Barnhartâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s, Richard expanded his social circle. He enjoyed going to community concerts and traveled to many places in New England. At age 58, Richard joined the loving family of Dawn and Brent Trombly in Moultonborough Neck. The Trombly household included teens and toddlers, all of whom enjoyed Richard. Especially close to him was Brooklyn Trombly, who at 20 months old soaked up all the good things Richard had to offer. Guardians and those close to Richard wish to thank the doctors and nurses who cared for Richard at Laconia General Hospital and the staff at Golden View Health Care Center in Meredith. A graveside service and then celebration of Richardsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s life will be held on May 19, times to be announced. Service will be arranged by The Lord Funeral Home, Ossipee. Condolences and fond memories may be left at www.lordfuneralhome.com.

Arts Association presents two local photographers CONWAY — Two local photographers, Dick Pollock and Kathy Bergeron, are conducting a joint exhibition of their work during the month of March at the Mount Washington Valley Arts Association’s Visual Arts Center at 16 Norcross Place in North Conway Village. Both artists have recently begun to produce much of their work on canvas. The emphasis of this show is to demonstrate the wonderful detail, vibrancy and texture that is possible with this medium. Kathy Bergeron is known for her hummingbird photography as well as flowers and the unique look of her Monet technique. She will also have prints and note cards of her signature work on sale. Along with husband Ed Bergeron, Kathy, has given workshops for local organizations including Tin Mountain Conservation Center and has exhibited her work in several publications. Dick Pollock is known for his scenic and wildlife photography, although he says he has a few surprises for this show. His Mount Washington Valley Photo Book and annual retail calendars are familiar to local residents and available in local gift shops. Both are residents of North Conway and are active members of the North Country Camera Club where they are regularly among the top scorers in the monthly competitions. Bergeron’s work can be seen at her Camera Club Gallery and Pollocks’s at MoatPhoto.com. The public is invited to come to the opening reception where you can meet the artists on Friday, March 2, from 5:30 to 7 p.m. Light refreshments will be served.

CONWAY — Three for Three, a series of benefit concerts presenting programs of solo and ensemble chamber music featuring the fully restored Hubbard Harpsichord, will be presented on three consecutive Sunday afternoons, at 3 p.m. on March 4, 11 and 18 at the Salyards Center for the Arts, Main Street, Conway. The series will benefit the Baroque Trio Restoration Fund, created in 2010 which needs only $3,661 to meet the $19,021 total to complete the project. “The Baroque Trio” includes the acquisition of three Baroque keyboard instruments: a double manual 8-foot harpsichord, an unfretted clavichord, and a virginal instrument in a standing case, lovingly constructed high quality replicas of their ancestors dating back to at least the 1600’s! The three instruments are the primary keyboard instruments of the Baroque period and began as high quality kits – a re-creation of musical history and assembled by craftsmen throughout the world and in use by professional and amateur musicians alike. The concert series will feature the newly restored Hubbard Harpsichord in performance of a variety of Baroque Chamber Music, both solo and in combination with other instruments. On Sunday, March 4, the program will feature string instruments directed by Chris Nourse, violinist and faculty member at Mountain Top Music. On Sunday, March 11, the concert will feature woodwind instruments directed by Brian Charles, oboist and owner of North Conway Music Shop and will include movements from the four Handel Sonatas for Recorder and Basso Continuo, transcribed for oboe and harpsichord. The final concert in the series, on Sunday, March 18, will include a mix of ancient and modern works, combin-

ing strings and woodwinds with the harpsichord in a chamber orchestra led by George Wiese, director of Mountain Top Music Center. Compositions by local composers will feature Ken Turley, the originator of the Baroque Trio Project with the acquisition of the three instruments, presenting an original composition in the style of Edward A. MacDowell under the pen name of Kedward A. MacTowell and a piece for small ensemble and voices based on poetry by T.S. Eliot, written by Ellen Schwindt. Flutist Doris Henney will be featured on the program as well. Tickets to the concert series are available in advance at North Conway Music

Shop, 2988 White Mountain Highway, North Conway, NH, 356-3562 or at the door. There is a suggested donation of $10 per person or a 3-ticket Series for all thee concerts at $25. Please contribute more if you can. The $19,021Baroque Trio project has raised $15,360 to date, and has been separated into 4 steps. Step one, to restore the Hubbard Harpsichord, is complete. Step 2, to complete the Clavichord, is in progress and requires $1,161 to complete. Step 3 will be to raise $1,500 to fully complete the Virginal, and Step 4 will raise $1,000 to be placed in a maintenance fund for the upkeep of the trio. see next page

FROM REAL SNOW (at long last!) to ski history, uphill ski racing, the Bill Koch League Ski Fest, and hot, hot, hot chili, it’s shaping up to be an action-packed weekend as March roars in like a lion here in Mount Washington Valley.

Both the White Mountain Musical Arts, the organization that presents the annual Bach Festival in August; and the Conway Historical Society, the organization that operates the Salyards Center for the Arts in Conway, have given their support to the project. The completed Baroque Trio will be provided a home at the Salyards Center and the White Mountain Musical Arts has committed to feature the instruments in the Bach Festival and other performances. “Having such unusual instruments reside locally, outside metropolitan areas and available for performances, is very exciting and truly an unusual occurrence,” said Floyd Corson, Chair of the Music Advisory Board for the White Mountain Musical Arts. Initial funding for the Baroque Trio project was provided by three area charitable organizations. The Robert and Dorothy Goldberg Charitable Foundation, The Clarence E. Mulford Fund in

see next page

Fryeburg and The Pequawket Foundation as well as private donations from members of the greater Fryeburg — Conway area. Proceeds from Three for Three concert series will help complete Step 2 and 3 of the project: the restoration of the two remaining sister instruments, a clavichord and virginal, which will complete the collection of the three primary keyboard instruments of the Baroque era. As a complete set, this trio will serve as a “hands on” display of the primary keyboard instruments from an important era in the history of western music. Refurbished by Hendrick Broekman, one of the finest craftsmen in the field, these instruments will be authentically constructed and finished, visually beautiful and completely playable. Upon completion they will be permanently available for performance and for practice by serious students of the music of this era. Additional information may be found at www. mwvevents.com.

Could the powda outage finally be over? We all can only hope. And rejoice (peaking for all snowsports lovers, any way — better late than never, right? ••• MEISTER CUP: Following Thursday’s snow, the weather forecast called for clearing skies for Friday and highs in the low 30s, with a 70 percent chance of light snow Friday night — but then it gets dicey for Saturday, when several events are planned for the region, including the New England Ski Museum’s 14th annual Hannes Schneider Meister Cup at Cranmore, the Black Mountain/EMS Up-and-Down Mountain Race, and the MWV Chamber’s 10th annual Chilly Chili Cookoff and Stroll in North Conway Village. As of Thursday, the National Weather Service was calling for rain, freezing rain or sleet Saturday with highs in the upper 30s, with Sunday’s forecast consisting of cloudy weather with scattered snow or rain showers. It may make conditions challenging for Black and Cranmore’s two big events Saturday, but will have no impact on the MWV Chamber’s Chili Stroll. “We run rain or shine,” is what the NESM’s Linda Bradford said of Saturday’s Schneider Cup. “One of our board members, Jeremy Davis [author of a book on New England’s lost ski areas], is a meteorlogist, and he says to get the two runs done early, back to back, so that’s what we’re going to do,” said Linda. Jeff Leich, director of the NESM, and a resident of North Conway, says he expects greater participation from military personnel stationed at Fort Drum, N.Y., and the Vermont Warfare School, as more troops have come home from Iraq and Afghanistan. Among the teams will be descendants of the World War II era 10th Mountain Division troops. Also expected is veteran Dick Calvert of the 10th, according to Jeff, who wrote a book on the legendary ski troops a few years ago, “Tales of the 10th.” The schedule calls for a randonee race and reception Fridy night, followed by a torchlight parade at 8 p.m. On Saturday, the opening ceremonies get things going at 9:15 a.m., followed by the two-run dual giant slalom. A silent auction with all sorts of great stuff will be held from 10:30 a.m. to 2 p.m. Ice carving will be featured, and a vintage ski attire contest will also be held, followed by awards, with the aforementioned Roy “the Skiing D.J.” Prescott handling the microphone duties. Once again, a Rooster spirit award will be awarded in memory of the late No. 1 ski fan of the U.S.Ski Team and past Schneider Cup volunteer, Doug “the Rooster” Campbell. Last year’s winners,

the young pink-helmeted ladies who comprise the If Pink Pigs Could Fly team, are expected to be back to defend their title. The fun wraps up Sunday morning with a ski history talk at 9:30 a.m. at the Eastern Slope Inn, with Bettina Hoerlin to speak on the topic, “Under the Shadow of the Swastika.” For more information, call 3565543 or visit www.cranmore.com or www.skimuseum.org. ••• ALL-MOUNTAIN RACE: Black Mountain (383-4490) — New Hampshire’s oldest ski area, dating back to 1935 — and EMS will host their first annual allmountain race March 3. “We’re calling all telemark, randonee and split board folks — whatever it takes (except via chairlift, snow-machine, groomer — no motors allowed),” notes Black’s marketing director, Krissy Fraser. “Then ski or board back to the base to cross the finish line.” Registration will take place in the main base lodge from 9 to 11 a.m., with a race start at non. Entry fee is $25 and includes a race only “lift” ticket. ••• ATP FreeRide at Attitash: In other ski events of the weekend, check out the ATP Freeride Series at Attitash (374-2368) March 3. It’s the final event in the series and is for skiers and boarders who will race through banked turns and mandatory airs to see who will cross the finish line first. Other events March 3 include: Wildcat (466-3326) Ski-A-Thon for the benefit of the valley’s Ability/Plus as skiers keep track of their runs; King Pine (367-8896) hosts Slugger, the Portland Sea Dogs’mascot, and Shanwee Peak ((207-647-8444) presents the Mary’s Firemen Race to raise funds for breast cancer research.

Word has been received that the town’s own web page is now up and running. A quick view of the site at effinghamnh.net does offer a lot of information, but it was said that the page is a work in progress. It is hoped that in the future a lot of necessary business you may have with the municipal offices will be able to be conducted on line. With gas approaching four dollars a gallon any opportunity to leave the car in the driveway is a welcome occurrence: many thanks to the selectmen for finally getting this done, with particular thanks to selectman Swanik for her work on research and development of the new site. Please plan on showing up for the candidates’ debate March 5 at 6:30 p.m. in the municipal offices. Information on the debate is available on the new web site as well as voting times and other information. Our library will be hosting another lecture on America’s National Park system Friday, March 2, starting at 2:30 p.m. The primary topic of this particular lecture will be the social impacts of the system during the period of 1933 to 1945 and how the parks helped express the earliest efforts towards environmental concerns and due to their creation and development help to offer jobs to the many unemployed during the Depression through the CCC program: a somewhat different response to the problem of budget short falls than is currently happening at the federal park level; this time instead of creating something that millions of people have benefitted from over the decades parks are finding themselves underfunded and cutting both services and maintenance.

DAILY CROSSWORD TRIBUNE MEDIA SERVICES

by Lynn Johnston

DILBERT

by Scott Adams

By Holiday Mathis SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). There’s something tangible you want to have by the end of the day. You will narrow your choices and home in on your top priority. You wisely realize that if you chase everything, you get nothing. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). There are a certain number of halffinished projects in your past, and you have that in common with many other creative people. Seize today’s opportunity to complete a journey, or at least commit to completing it. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). All skills require time, patience and practice to learn. As much as you wish for instantaneous knowledge, the very nature of knowing is that it happens through a process. So relax and get ready to go through all of the steps. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Wanting something else doesn’t lessen the value in what you already have. Take measures to care for and protect what you have, and you’ll see the great power and opportunity in it. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Checklists will be involved. There’s something wonderful about doing exactly what you expected to be doing. Feeling like you are in control of your time will bring you great happiness. TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (March 2). The next seven weeks represent the end of a cycle, and you’ll celebrate accomplishment and completion. May brings new adventures. Quality time with family and relationship-related events could cause you to change your career trajectory in June. A hobby that has nothing to do with your job will feed your spirit in August. Aries and Libra people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 30, 2, 12, 25 and 40.

Get Fuzzy

ARIES (March 21-April 19). You may suffer from a kind of urban ennui. The bustle around you seems like a rerun of yesterday’s drama. Break the pattern by finding reasons to laugh out loud. You’ll probably have to go out of your way. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). No matter what you achieve, however big or small it may be, you don’t forget your roots. You feel gratitude toward the people who have helped you, and you’ll be sure to express it. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You tend to concentrate on one thing until you’re sure it’s solved. It’s a bit like your mind is a television show, and you don’t want to change the channel until the end credits roll. CANCER (June 22-July 22). Avoid being so conscious of returning favors that you don’t enjoy the kindness that others are trying to give you. You’re a good person, and your heart is in the right place. All will balance out in the end. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). It’s natural that you would want to hold on to certain things for sentimental reasons. However, if you have hundreds of such items, the feeling is diluted. Let go of old possessions, and make way for the new. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Even when you are overwhelmingly happy with a result, you believe there’s always room for improvement. This mindset is what keeps you learning and growing all day long. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Much good comes from your ability to delay gratification. If you catch yourself thinking of the short term, stop and go for a broader perspective. Before committing to an action, ask yourself what it will likely lead to in the long run.

THE CONWAY DAILY SUN, Friday, March 2, 2012— Page 23

Today is Friday, March 2, the 62nd day of 2012. There are 304 days left in the year. Today’s Highlight in History: On March 2, 1962, Wilt Chamberlain scored 100 points for the Philadelphia Warriors in a game against the New York Knicks, an NBA record that still stands. (Philadelphia won, 169-147.) On this date: In 1793, the first president of the Republic of Texas, Sam Houston, was born near Lexington, Va. In 1836, the Republic of Texas formally declared its independence from Mexico. In 1861, the state of Texas, having seceded from the Union, was admitted to the Confederacy. In 1877, Republican Rutherford B. Hayes was declared the winner of the 1876 presidential election over Democrat Samuel J. Tilden, even though Tilden had won the popular vote. In 1917, Puerto Ricans were granted U.S. citizenship as President Woodrow Wilson signed the Jones-Shafroth Act. In 1932, the 20th Amendment to the Constitution, which moved the date of the presidential inauguration from March 4 to January 20, was passed by Congress and sent to the states for ratification. In 1939, Roman Catholic Cardinal Eugenio Pacelli (puh-CHEL’-ee) was elected pope on his 63rd birthday; he took the name Pius XII. In 1943, the World War II Battle of the Bismarck Sea began; U.S. and Australian warplanes were able to inflict heavy damage on a Japanese convoy. In 1951, the East beat the West, 111-94, in the first NBA All-Star Game, which took place at Boston Garden. In 1972, the United States launched the Pioneer 10 space probe, which flew past Jupiter in late 1973, sending back images and scientific data. In 1989, representatives from the 12 European Community nations agreed to ban all production of CFCs (chlorofluorocarbons) by the end of the 20th century. One year ago: The Supreme Court ruled, 8-1, that a grieving father’s pain over mocking protests at his Marine son’s funeral had to yield to First Amendment protections for free speech in a decision favoring the Westboro Baptist Church of Topeka, Kan. A man armed with a handgun attacked a bus carrying U.S. Air Force troops at Frankfurt airport, killing two airmen before being taken into custody. Today’s Birthdays: Actor John Cullum is 82. Author Tom Wolfe is 82. Actress Barbara Luna is 73. Actor Jon Finch is 71. Author John Irving is 70. Singer Lou Reed is 70. Actress Cassie Yates is 61. Actress Laraine Newman is 60. Former Sen. Russ Feingold, D-Wis., is 59. Interior Secretary Ken Salazar is 57. Singer Jay Osmond is 57. Pop musician John Cowsill is 56. Tennis player Kevin Curren is 54. Country singer Larry Stewart (Restless Heart) is 53. Rock singer Jon Bon Jovi is 50. Blues singer-musician Alvin Youngblood Hart is 49. Actor Daniel Craig is 44. Rock musician Casey (Jimmie’s Chicken Shack) is 36. Rock singer Chris Martin (Coldplay) is 35. Actress Heather McComb is 35. Actress Bryce Dallas Howard is 31. Actor Robert Iler (“The Sopranos”) is 27.

FATHER IS TEACHING SON IN THE SCHOOL OF INFIDELITY

DEAR ABBY: I have been married 18 years. In that time my husband has been unfaithful twice. Last week I was going through his cellphone and noticed from his emails that he had registered on a dating service and was exchanging photos with four women. I threw him out of the house. What really upsets me is my 17-year-old son knew about the affairs and thinks it’s perfectly normal for his dad to have female “friends” while we were still living together. I don’t like what my soon-to-be-ex did to me, and I don’t want my son thinking it’s OK to start looking while you’re still married. My son finds ways to excuse his father’s behavior. How can I make him understand that looking for other partners while you’re married is being unfaithful? -- TEXAS WIFE WHO’S HAD IT DEAR HAD IT: That may not be easy. Your husband, by making your son his co-conspirator (“It’ll just be between us guys”), has made him a member of the “boys club” and cliqued you out. Has your son not seen how painful this has been for you? Your almost ex-husband is a terrible role model. When your son follows in Dad’s footsteps -- and there is every reason to believe he will -- he will never have a successful marriage of his own. DEAR ABBY: My girlfriend and I have been dating for four years. In the beginning, we’d split our visits between her house and mine because we live 100 miles apart. Two years ago she stopped wanting me to come to her house. She’d say it was dirty or that she didn’t want anyone there. When we plan to have me go there, the day arrives and she says she wants to break up with me because I insist on visiting her. Over the past year and a half, I have been to her place only three times. She hemmed and hawed but finally allowed it. She claims there’s no reason she’s acting this way, that I’m

crazy and people are putting ideas in my head. I tell her it’s her behavior that makes me think she’s hiding something. What should I do? -- SUSPICIOUS IN BUFFALO DEAR SUSPICIOUS: Something strange IS going on. A drastic change in someone’s behavior is legitimate cause for concern. Clearly your girlfriend has a secret. She may be seeing someone or there’s something else she doesn’t want you to see. You are overdue in getting to the bottom of it, so stop allowing her to put you on the defensive, even if it means ending the relationship. DEAR ABBY: My husband and I received a wedding gift in the form of a donation to a religious organization in honor of our nuptials. I am strongly opposed to this organization because it excludes women from its primary mission due to beliefs I do not share. Having found this gesture to be offensive, how do I acknowledge this “gift”? -- NOT IN MY NAME DEAR NOT IN MY NAME: What a peculiar gift for a wedding. Usually couples receive an item for which they registered, or something they can use or enjoy together. It appears that rather than give you a gift, your guest gave himself/herself a tax deduction. For the sake of good manners, write the person a short note saying, “Thank you for sharing our special day with us.” DEAR ABBY: My husband is 70 and I’m 68. We have been married for two years. His previous wife was 22 years younger than him, and he seems to delight in bringing the age thing up. I feel so old and insecure. Have you any words of wisdom to offer me? -- THE OLD LADY DEAR LADY: Two can play your husband’s game. The next time he mentions it, tell him the reason she’s his “ex” is that he was too old for her -- which is why this time he wised up and picked on somebody “his own size.”
