East Conway Road falling apart — and there’s no money to fix it

BY ERIK EISELE THE CONWAY DAILY SUN

CONWAY — The myriad frost heaves and potholes covering the East Conway Road have provoked an outcry from the residents forced to navigate them each day, but lawmakers and state officials see little chance of a significant fix anytime soon.

Town officials, meanwhile, are looking into what the town can do, but several have indicated they feel like the state is strong-arming the town into fixing the state’s problem.

“We need help,” East Conway resident Doug Swett told the selectmen late last month. “We’ve got a problem and we’ve had it for years.”

“It’s a disaster,” selectman Michael DiGregorio responded.

“We’re clearly aware of what’s going on on that road.”

The town, however, does not own the road.

“This is an unnumbered state highway,” public works director Paul DegliAngeli told the selectmen this week.

That means it falls to the bottom of the state’s priority list.

“There’s no reason for this to be a state roadway. That’s what we’re hearing.”

State officials agree the unnumbered state highways often are the first to get pushed off the maintenance plan.

CONWAY — On the heels of a court ruling, Conway School Board chairman Janine McLauchlan reminded her colleagues that they are school board members at all times and never just private citizens.

McLauchlan offered those words of advice Monday night when board member John Skelton, under board member issues, informed the board he planned to take part in forum within the Conway School District as a private citizen.

“As a private citizen,” Skelton said he was going to help organize a collection of

For Skittles, death brings profit, risk (NY Times) — Skittles are the candy of the moment.

Rashaun Collins, who owns the Discreetly Greek T-shirt company in Minnesota, slips a pack into every order he ships.

At Spelman College, the historically black women’s liberal arts school in Atlanta, the student government is buying Skittles in bulk and reselling them for 50 cents a bag to raise money for the family of Trayvon Martin, the teenager who was shot and killed by a crime watch volunteer in Sanford, Fla., last month carrying only a packet of the candy and a bottle of iced tea.

The candy has been piled into makeshift memorials, crammed into the pockets of thousands of people who have shown up at rallies in his name and sent to the Sanford Police Department to protest the lack of an arrest in the case.

Like the hoodie sweatshirt he was wearing, the candy has been transformed into a cultural icon, a symbol of racial injustice that underscores Trayvon’s youth and the circumstances surrounding his death. But in the offices of the company that makes Skittles, Wrigley, and its parent company, Mars, Skittles’ new level of fame has quickly become a kind of marketing crisis that is threatening to hurt the company even as sales improve.

Hard line on Iran places White House in bind WASHINGTON (NY Times) — As American and European diplomats prepare for crucial negotiations with Iran over its nuclear program, the White House finds itself caught in a bind: for the diplomatic effort to work, American officials say, the Iranian government must believe that President Obama is ready and willing to take military action.

Yet tough talk, necessary as it might be for successful diplomacy, contributes to a

sense that war may be unavoidable. And it masks the fact that Mr. Obama, and his military commanders, remain deeply worried about the consequence of an attack on Iran’s nuclear facilities, either by Israel alone or a strike that could draw in the United States.

“Obama had two main objectives — to deflect Israeli pressure to conduct or acquiesce in a premature war, and to neutralize Republican criticism that he is too soft on Iran and

Apple supplier in China pledges big labor changes (NY Times) — Foxconn, which manufactures more than 40 percent of the world’s electronics for such companies as Apple, Dell, Amazon and others, has pledged to sharply curtail the number of working hours within its Chinese factories and significantly increase wages, a move that could improve working conditions across China.

The shift comes after an inspection by the Fair Labor Association, a monitoring group, found widespread problems — including numerous instances where Foxconn violated Chinese law and industry codes of

conduct by having employees work more than 60 hours a week, sometimes for 11 or more days in a row.

The monitoring group, which in recent weeks surveyed more than 35,000 Foxconn employees and inspected three large facilities where Apple products are manufactured, also found that 43 percent of workers surveyed had experienced or witnessed accidents, and almost two-thirds said their compensation “does not meet their basic needs.”

Many said that the unions available to them did “not provide true worker representation.”

too hard on Israel,” said Robert Malley, program director for the Middle East and North Africa at the International Crisis Group. “On those fronts, mission accomplished.”

But, Malley added, “victory came at a price.” By stating clearly that containment of a nuclear-armed Iran is off the table, Obama may have committed America to military action to halt Iran if other means fail to do so, Malley said.

Study: Autism diagnoses rising (NY Times) — The likelihood of a child’s being given a diagnosis of autism, Asperger syndrome or a related disorder increased more than 20 percent from 2006 to 2008, according to a report released on Thursday by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

The new report estimates that in 2008 one child in 88 received one of these diagnoses, known as autism spectrum disorders, by age 8, compared with about one in 110 two years earlier. The estimated rate in 2002 was about one in 155.

The frequency of autism spectrum diagnoses has been increasing for decades, but researchers cannot agree on whether the trend is a result of heightened awareness, an expanding definition of the spectrum, an actual increase in incidence or some combination of those factors. Diagnosing the condition is not an exact science. Children “on the spectrum” vary widely in their abilities and symptoms, from mute and intellectually limited at one extreme to socially awkward at the other.

Children with such diagnoses often receive extensive state-financed support services — which some experts believe may have contributed to an increase in the numbers.

Group says global warming is fueling extreme weather CONWAY — After a year that saw many parts of the country hit by scorching heat, devastating wildfires, severe storms and record flooding, a new Environment New Hampshire report documents how global warming could lead to certain extremes. Every New Hampshire county has been hit by at least one federally-declared weather-related disaster since 2006.

2011’s Hurricane Irene, which caused the Kancamagus to close in Bartlett, was one of the extreme weather events highlighted in the report.

“Millions of Granite Staters have lived through extreme weather causing extremely big problems for New Hampshire’s economy and our public safety” said Jessica O’Hare, Environment New Hampshire’s advocate.

“Given that global warming will likely fuel even more extreme weather, we need to cut dangerous carbon pollution now.”

The new report, entitled “In the

Path of the Storm: Global Warming, Extreme Weather, and the Impacts of Weather-Related Disasters in the United States,” examined countylevel weather-related disaster declaration data from the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) for 2006 through 2011 to determine how many Granite Staters live in counties hit by recent weather disasters. The complete county-level data can be viewed through an interactive map available on Environment New Hampshire’s website. The report also details the latest science on the projected influence of global warming on heavy rain and snow; heat, drought and wildfires; and hurricanes and coastal storms. Finally, the report explores how the damage from even non-extreme weather events could increase due to other impacts of global warming such as sea level rise.

Youth sponsored April foolishness grips Corner House Inn spring film festival Local storyteller Andy Davis will be performing April 5 starts on April 6 Green Mountain Conservation Group (GMCG) along with the Youth Coalition: WHY (Watershed Hope Youth) have teamed up to host a spring film festival to run through the month of April. In conjunction with local libraries, one film a week will be shown around the watershed on conservation-related topics in celebration of Earth “month” (how can we only celebrate Earth for one day?). A combination of films for both youth and adults have been chosen by members of the WHY group. Three of the four films will be shown on Friday evenings with the final film debuting at the Evergreen Institute for Wellness’ Food and Film Festival at Kennett High School on Saturday, April 28.

Cook Library to show ‘The Greater Good’ TAMWORTH — The Cook Memorial Library in Tamworth will show the documentary “The Greater Good,” on Saturday, March 31, at 2 p.m. This movie looks behind the fear, hype and politics that have polarized the vaccine debate in America today. The film reframes the emotionally charged issue and offers, the opportunity for a rational and scientific discussion on how to create a safer and more effective vaccine program. Tamworth resident Melanie Streeter will facilitate a discussion after the movie. This program is free and everyone is welcome.

American children are now the most vaccinated population on the planet. One would think they would also be the healthiest, but according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, one in six children has a learning disability or behavioral problem, one in nine children is asthmatic, one in 110 children suffers from autism, and one in 450 is diabetic.

“The Greater Good” is a character-driven documentary that explores the areas where parenting, modern medicine and states’ rights clash with politics, groupthink and Big Pharma. The film offers parents, doctors and policy-makers a safe space to actively listen to and learn from one another. Mixing verite footage, intimate interviews, 1950s-era government-produced movies and up-to-date TV news reporting, “The Greater Good” weaves together the stories of families whose lives have been forever changed by vaccination.

Jackson Sewing Circle to hold silver tea April 2 JACKSON — The 95-year-old Jackson Sewing Circle is scheduled to celebrate the 90th birthdays of members Janet Green and Louise Richards with a silver tea at the home of Mary Wilkinson-Greenberg at 52 Mountain View Road (off Dundee Road) April 2 at 2 p.m.

Green’s birthday was February 19, while Richards celebrated hers March 19, according to WilkinsonGreenberg.

She asks all would-be attendees to respond via e-mail to wilksgreenberg@gmail.com.

SANDWICH — Andy Davis will be telling tales in front of the hearth at the Corner House Inn in Center Sandwich Thursday, April 5. Dinner is served at 6:30 p.m. and the storytelling will begin when dessert dishes have been cleared.

Davis roams the northern woods with a quiver of tales that include equal parts magical realism, personal experience and multicultural folklore. He has entertained audiences as far east as Paris, as far south as Bamako, and as far west as San Diego. This time, Davis brings tales tall and short of “April Fools, Wise Fools and Foolish Fools.”

“Andy is a storyteller of remarkable guile and wit,” said Joanne Piazzi, another Corner House storyteller, and past president of the League for Advancement of New England Storytelling (LANES). “He has a straight-faced, straight-forward, seemingly innocent

way of delivering the most outlandish tales I’ve ever heard.”

Davis lives with his wife and 12-year-old daughter, a day’s walk across the Sandwich Range from the Corner House, in the shadow of Mount Chocorua, where he co-directs the World Fellowship Center, a multigenerational educational camp and retreat center devoted to peace and social justice. He is a member of the Mountain Storytellers Guild, the League for the Advancement of New England Storytelling and the Professional Organization of English Majors.

Storytelling dinners are held every Thursday evening, late October through May, at the Corner House Inn in Center Sandwich. The cost is $19.95 per person.

For more information and reservations contact the Corner House at 284-6219, or e-mail at info@cornerhouseinn.com.

EDITORIAL

School study article is a no-brainer If there’s a no-brainer vote on the Conway ballot April 10, it’s Article 21.

The question is simple: “Do you support the Conway School Board thoroughly researching the educational and financial impact of closing of an elementary school in the Conway School District?”

All it means is passing it would force the school board to find out how much it will cost for an independent expert to figure out how much money would be saved by closing one of the elementary schools.

Assuming the article passes, voters won’t vote to spend any money on the actual study until next year — 2013.

Passing Article 21 costs nothing.

Why is it taking a ballot vote for the school board to do something as simple as asking a few consultants for a quote to do a study that could lead to saving taxpayers hundreds of thousands of dollars?

Simple. Most school board members don’t want to close a school, so they have no interest in finding out how much money closing one will save.

They also say they’ve already done a study. Well, yes, if the fox-guarding-the-chickens study of 2009 counts, when the study committee was stacked with school employees, including the three elementary principals.

The idea of exploring the closing an elementary school because of declining enrollment is championed by school board member John Skelton.

Last year he tried to convince the rest of the board to look into a study and was shot down by a 6-1 vote. Kudos for Skelton for sticking up for taxpayers, and now voters have a chance to support him and trump the majority of the school board.

In summary, a yes vote will direct the school board to find out what independent experts would charge for a study.

Voters would then decide in 2013 whether to appropriate the money to fund it.

Passage of Article 21 costs nothing but may end up saving lots of money. It’s a no-brainer.

April 2 is fifth annual World Autism Awareness Day To the editor: April 2 is the fifth annual UN/ Autism Speaks sponsored Light It Up Blue - World Autism Awareness Day. On April 2 you will see various buildings around the world lit up in blue to promote autism awareness around the world. You can join in the event by purchasing a blue light bulb and changing your porch light blue for this one day.

With a rate of 1 in 110 people having an autism spectrum disorder, chances are you know at least one person whose life is affected by autism and chances are very good you know more than one person either directly affected by autism or caring for a person with autism. Autism is a life long complex neurological disability.

There is no cure and while research has discovered some promising clues, no cause has yet been found. It is not caused by bad parenting and the behavior of children and adults on the spectrum is not simply result of a lack of disciple or kids misbehaving, it is a real neurological disorder that affects how those with it perceive and experience everything. As there is no cure, a place in society with acceptance for those on the spectrum must happen and it will only happen with greater

awareness and understanding. Even the most profoundly affected person with autism if given a chance has the possibility for a fulfilling contributing life. Those on the higher functioning end of the autism spectrum have contributed towards many advances in technology and knowledge over the years. Who knows what the next Temple Grandin, Albert Einstein or Steven Wiltshire if given a chance and support will create or discover in the future?

World Autism Awareness Day was created to foster awareness of autism in everyday life. As awareness grows hopefully understanding and acceptance will follow. Awareness is important not only for those who are not affected by autism but also for those of us who live with autism every day of our lives. Autism tends to isolate those with it and those who care for them. This is our one day of the year to truly see we are not alone on this journey with something as simple as changing a light bulb for one day. I invite you to Light it Up Blue with me on Monday April 2, and show how aware this valley community can be.

Self-serving individuals installed by apathetic electorate To the editor: A while ago, this newspaper’s Teletalk inquired: “Do you support a teaching team reduction?” The question garnered the usual, often uninformed and anonymous responses. In my view, this simply mirrors some of the mismanagement and irresponsibility clearly exhibited by those elected by, and accountable to, “the voters.”

The governing boards of this town have been corrupted by a significant number of self-serving, sometimes incompetent individuals installed by a generally apathetic electorate. As a result, responsible management and pragmatism is regularly outvoted by special interests. Witness: The Select Board: A study in mismanagement. For example: They convinced “the voters” to approve renovating instead of replacing the town garage.

Despite their relentless twaddle, renovation costs will ultimately hover around $500,000, not significantly less than a new garage. This preposterous vision was promoted in particular by one — clearly incompetent — selectman. Unfortunately, common sense and researched data is regularly bypassed by his gifted ability to lull the gullible with slumberous propaganda and nonsensical BS. Further, “the voters,” in the last election, replaced Bob Drinkhall with a special interest rubber stamp.

No selectman worked harder or was as well prepared. Bob Drinkhall will be seeking your vote on the April ballot.

Planning and Zoning: Historically, anti-business. “The voters” elected contributors to what is beginning to look like a retail Conway Ghost Town.

For example: The current board maintains an absurd sign ordinance. This is but one of a plethora of examples too numerous to list here. That said, businesses from Home Depot to a

barber shop are under ridiculous constraints. No wonder there’s so much empty retail space and why productive people avoid consulting with arrogant, meddling bureaucrats.

Some cuckoo decisions share Local, State and (likely) Federal responsibility. Note the insane meg-a-buck railroad spur which — like the N/S road — ends ... Nowhere! Sure coulda used that money to reconstruct East Conway Road, among others!

The Budget Committee: “The voters” ended all sense of balance and fiscal responsibility by overwhelmingly infecting the budget committee with special interest “Schoolies,” who clearly show no regard for the conglomerate community; just wait ‘till you open your next tax bill. In my view, they’ve rendered the budget committee a frivolity, effectively rubber stamping the decisions of the school board. “The voters” will then bestow their final blessing and seal of approval. The “blessing,” at the deliberative, where months of budget committee work is trashed; and the “seal,” as the opportunity presents itself in the voting booth. Incredibly, the more militant freeloaders demand insurance: “The voters” must officially render the budget committee, or any other type of oversight for that matter ... irrelevant! Incidentally, the motivator behind this senseless act of stupidity is none other than the same selectman responsible for the town garage debacle.

If you’re not happy with these decisions, don’t let a small special interest group make all the decisions in the voting booth April 10. But if you can’t be bothered to vote, don’t complain about the results.

Key findings from the Environment New Hampshire report include: • Since 2006, federally declared weather-related disasters affected all 10 New Hampshire counties.

• Since 2006, Carroll County has experienced six federally-declared weather-related disasters. Recent weather-related disasters in New Hampshire included Hurricane Irene and the October 2011 “snow hurricane.”

• New Hampshire counties housing 1.3 million people were affected by the storms. Nationally, the number of disasters inflicting more than $1 billion in damage (at least 14) set an all-time record last year, with total damages from those disasters costing at least $55 billion.

• Nationally, federally declared weather-related disasters have affected counties housing 242 million people since 2006 — or nearly four out of five Americans.

• Other research shows that the U.S. has experienced an increase in heavy precipitation events, with the rainiest 1 percent of all storms delivering 20 percent more rain on average at the end of the 20th century than at the beginning. The trend toward extreme precipitation is projected to continue in a warming world, even though higher temperatures and drier summers will likely also increase the risk of drought in between the rainy periods and for certain parts of the country.

• Other research predicts that hurricanes are expected to become even more intense and bring greater amounts of rainfall in a warming world, even though the number of hurricanes may remain the same or decrease.

O’Hare noted that global warming is expected to have varying impacts on different types of extreme weather events. While the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change recently

concluded that it is “virtually certain” that hot days will become hotter and “likely” that extreme precipitation events will continue to increase worldwide, there is little scientific consensus about the impact of global warming on events such as tornadoes. In addition, O’Hare said, every weather event is now a product of a climate system where global warming “loads the dice” for extreme weather, though in different ways for different types of extreme weather.

“Extreme weather is happening, it is causing very serious problems, and global warming increases the likelihood that we’ll see even more extreme weather in the future,” said O’Hare. “Carbon pollution from our power plants, cars and trucks is fueling global warming, and so tackling global warming demands that we cut emissions of carbon pollution from those sources.”

Environment New Hampshire applauded U.S. Senator Jeanne Shaheen for her continued efforts to hold polluters accountable by rejecting attacks on clean air standards. Congressmen Charlie Bass and Kelly Ayotte also voted to defend smogreducing pollution protections.

The report was released as opponents of the Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative (RGGI) are seeking to pull New Hampshire out of RGGI, the first-in-the-nation limit on carbon pollution from the power sector that was established by 10 Northeast state governors and which took effect in 2009.

To date, the program has provided $27 million in resources to homeowners and businesses to invest in energy efficiency across the state.

“RGGI is helping New Hampshire meet our environmental and energy challenges by providing investments in energy efficiency and renewable energy, cutting pollution and curbing dependence on fossil fuels,” said O’Hare. “We cannot let the fossil fuel industry and their allies succeed in eliminating this critical program.”

East Conway Road is an “unnumbered highway,” putting it low on the state’s priority list.

ROAD from page one

“A lot of these roads are literally historic cart paths,” said Bill Boynton, spokesman for the Department of Transportation. “There’s no base to allow for drainage.”

The resulting water causes frost heaves and potholes that quickly degrade the road, he said, and before long the road needs a complete rebuild.

In East Conway Road’s case, he said, “it’s very likely it’s never been rehabbed.”

It costs between $750,000 and $1 million per mile to rebuild a road, he said. “That’s big bucks.” East Conway Road is roughly seven miles long, making it a major project.

The state is not going to spend that sort of money on its own, according to Gene Chandler, the chairman of the state public works and highways committee.

“There’s no money to do it,” he said.

“There’s no place to get the money from.”

“I’m still going to be pushing to get some work done out there,” he said, but at best it will be patch work, not a total rebuild, which, he said, “is just not going to happen.”

“It comes down to funding,” Chan-

dler said. “They (taxpayers) want it fixed but they don’t want to pay for it.”

The N.H. Department of Transportation gets funding from three places, according to Boynton: tolls, which go back into the turnpike; federal money, which is slated for capital projects; and money from the gas tax and registration fees.

The state gas tax is 18 cents per gallon, he said, and it hasn’t increased in 20 years.

Lawmakers increased the registration fee by $30 in 2009, but after the 2010 election lawmakers eliminated the increase.

The elimination of the surcharge led the Department of Transportation to warn that road maintenance, among other things, would suffer, but even with the surcharge, Chandler said, there wouldn’t have been enough money to rebuild East Conway Road.

Many projects are of a higher priority, he said, but the funding shortfall does have him looking to increase the gas tax.

“The more East Conway Roads we get throughout the state, the more support we’ll get,” he said. see ROAD page 10

Page 10 — THE CONWAY DAILY SUN, Friday, March 30, 2012

ROAD from page 9

More money, however, won’t raise the state’s prioritization of the unnumbered state highways.

“East Conway Road is still going to be a difficult problem,” Chandler said.

That has the state looking to partner with the town on fixing the road, something town officials say is akin to blackmail.

The state has offered to rebuild the road over the next decade, for an estimated cost of between $9 million and $12 million, if the town pays one-third of the cost and agrees to take responsibility of the road once the work is completed.

“It seems like they’re trying to muscle us into taking this road,” DiGregorio said at this week’s selectmen’s meeting.

If this were to happen, town engineer Paul DegliAngeli said, there would be additional costs incurred.

This is a long section of road currently plowed by the state. If the town takes it, he said, “this is another truck.”

Chandler, meanwhile, said the town has a choice: Let the state fix the road at its pace, or partner with the state and get it fixed. “The town gets to decide if they want to do it or not,” he said.

If the town says yes, however, pro-

jections are the job won’t be finished before 2020. And if the town says no?

“I don’t have a time frame,” DOT spokesman Boynton said. “I can’t answer yet.”

“My goal is to make it passable in the near term,” Chandler said. He is aiming for piecemeal improvements of the worst areas, he said, but “that’s not even guaranteed.”

Town officials, meanwhile, called the situation “mindboggling,” pointing out East Conway Road isn’t theirs to fix. The selectmen agreed to give the state $10,000 toward a study to see just how bad the road is from one end to the other, but the larger point, that the state should take handle its own responsibilities, raised frustrations.

“There hasn’t been any maintenance over there,” selectmen’s chair David Weathers said.

That is a point state officials agree with.

“It’s been bad for years,” Chandler said. He met with residents to discuss the issue earlier this month, but if left to the state, he said, a real fix is decades away.

The town, however, hopes it can push lawmakers into forcing the state to take care of the road itself.

“My feeling is let the state reps do their job,” DiGregorio said. “This is what we voted for them to do.”

SCHOOL BOARD from page one

questions first hand to elected officials. Skelton said he hoped to get a member of the school board to participate “to serve as a resource to a specific social studies teacher.

“When you say as a private citizen, we cannot separate ourselves at will,” McLauchlan said. “You are always as we found out recently acting as a school board member.”

McLauchlan was making reference to a ruling Jan. 30 by superior court Judge Steven Houran concerning the private versus public lives of school board members. School administrators refused to release information that could answer questions about alleged inappropriate behavior by board member Randy Davison dating back as far as 2007. Five

“When you say as a private citizen, we cannot separate ourselves at will,” McLauchlan said.

“You are always as we found out recently acting as a school board member.” former school board members confirmed the school received complaints during their tenure about Davison for his tendency to lose his composure at school sporting events, but a formal request by The Conway Daily Sun for copies of those complaints was denied until the matter was decided in court.

The school’s attorney, John Teague, said Davison’s actions on the sidelines were part of his private life, not part of his role as board member, and therefore were not subject to public review. However, former board member and current school board candidate Kelley

Murphy said people in public positions “can’t pick and choose what hat you’re going to wear and when you’re going to wear it. He’s out there as a school board member the whole time.”

“Upon review of the documents,” Judge Houran said in his order, “the court determines that the school district did more than simply receive and warehouse information. The documents show that the information was forwarded from administrator to administrator and was subject to internal discussions among administrators, and the documents show at least two instances that they resulted in discussions by school administrators directly with Mr. Davison.”

“These are government activities,” Houran goes on to say, “and, at least in the context of Mr. Davison’s dual status as not only a private citizen who is the parent of a student but also a member of the school board appearing at school facilities or events, tips the balance in favor of disclosure.”

Board member Syndi White understood what Skelton was attempting to do. “John is talking about enriching and making the opportunity available,” she said.

Fellow board member Dick Klement disagreed.

“When you walk into a meeting you’re John Skelton, school board member,” he said. “I for one don’t think it’s appropriate what you’re trying to do. I think it’s the chair’s position until we task someone to support and serve on the committee.”

McLauchlan agreed but appreciated Skelton’s willingness to help.

“We don’t disagree with the initiative taken,” she said, “but, like Dick said, wwhen we walk into a room or a meeting we are seen as representatives of the school board. I think it makes it a lot cleaner if we all take that approach.”

Sorenson says new contract for I.T. services vital for emergency dispatch

BY DAYMOND STEER THE CONWAY DAILY SUN

OSSIPEE -- The county’s Information Technology (IT) services contract will remain in flux for days after the current contract is due to expire on April 1. This could leave the emergency dispatch center vulnerable in the event of a computer crash.

A meeting Wednesday created even more drama in a so called “highly irregular” bidding process rife with allegations of bid rigging.

At a March 14 meeting, commissioners decided to rebid the contract because they only received one response to their Request for Proposal and that bid came from the current contract holder, Cybertron Technology Solutions of Belmont.

At the time, commissioner Asha Kenney wanted to reopen the process and she offered to find more bidders. By March 28, the county received responses from several more companies.

At a recent meeting, Cybertron’s founder Jon Rich called the commission’s method of reopening the bids “highly irregular.”

Commission chair David Sorensen had hoped the commission would make a decision on Wednesday. IT support for the sheriff’s communication center is vital because it provides dispatch service to many fire departments and law enforcement agencies in the county.

“Our contract runs out on the first of April and if something should happen to our dispatch center we’d be in deep trouble if we didn’t have somebody on board to fix it,” said Sorensen. “The contract runs out on Sunday and should the dispatch center go down on Monday and we don’t have a contract, there’s going to be a major problem.”

Later in the afternoon, commissioners decided to hold off awarding the IT bid until their next meeting on April 4.

On Wednesday morning, commissioners opened all the bids. That afternoon,

the county’s information technology committee recommended the commission renew with Cybertron, which bid $318,000 over three years.

The IT committee includes representatives of each county department and Rich. Rich recused himself while the committee made its recommendation.

Rich said he would provide some temporary coverage while commissioners figure out which company will get the next contract.

Wakefield resident Steve Brown insisted that Rich helped write the RFP so no other companies would be inclined to bid. He pointed to a particular section of the RFP that stated the overall contract price must include replacing any piece of equipment that fails.

“That’s a deal breaker,” said Brown.

“That is trying to steer the bid because no one in their right mind in business would accept something like that.”

But Sorensen said four other companies did decided to bid on the project. All the companies bid on the same RFP. Sorensen questioned why Brown thought Cybertron could afford to replace the equipment but other companies couldn’t.

The county also received other bids from Cybertron, Home Town Technology Consultants of Portsmouth, Mainstay Technologies of Laconia, 2-Way Communication Services of Newington and Granite Infotech of Portsmouth.

One company informed Kenney that the replacement provision was one of reasons they chose not bid on the county’s contract.

However, a representative of Granite Infotech told commissioners that despite Brown and Kenney’s concerns, his company was willing and able to bid on the RFP. Brown also criticized the commission for not having a bidding process.

“When you don’t have a process it just doesn’t look right,” said Brown.

She’s got the blues The Lorax stops by White Birch Books Saturday CONWAY — Although he is now a big movie star, The Lorax still makes time to visit all of his fans. He will be making a stop at White Birch Books in North Conway on Saturday, March 31, starting at 10 a.m., for a Lorax story time.

White Birch Books will be hosting a Lorax storytime, which includes a reading of “The Lorax” as well as a couple other Seuss classics. After story time, children can say “Hi” to the Lorax and pose with him for a picture. With this early spring, a visit to the Lorax will get everyone inspired for Earth Day and Valley Pride Day. White Birch Books is located in North Conway Village just south of the park, across from TD Bank. For more information about the event, call White Birch Books at 356-3200 or visit them online at www.whitebirchbooks.com.

Nan White art show and sale Friday and Saturday CONWAY — Have you ever wanted to own a Nan White watercolor? Saturday evening, March 31, is your best opportunity. “Nan White the Artist: An Exhibit for Sale” will be from 5 to 7 p.m. at the Mount Washington Valley Arts Association ‘s Visual Arts Center, 16 Norcross Place , North Conway Village. White’s work will be displayed on Friday, March 30, from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m.

Over the years, White won many local awards for her work and felt honored to have her work prominently displayed in so many local homes and businesses. Most recently, judges awarded her first prize in the 2011 Mount Washington Valley Arts Association’s Art in the Park for “Tall Trees.”

White lived in North Conway and began painting in the 1950s with Lewis Hodgkins.

His influence is evident in her work.

White loved to experiment with her watercolors and in this presentation of her work it is evident that she enjoyed painting on a wide variety of different materials, but she always preferred the “flow” and transparency of watercolors. When White passed away on Dec. 26, 2011, she gifted her remaining art to her beloved Mount Washington Valley Arts Association, which promotes arts through exhibition, classes, and events. White’s lifelong dream was for all the valley artists to unite and have a quality forum for exhibiting and marketing their work. White devoted substantial time and energy as an active lifelong Mount Washington Valley Arts Association member and past leader of Friday Painters. White formed the Friday Painters Group with Dottie DeMark in the 1980s when the duo began painting outdoor landscapes together and invited other artists to join them. Her gift included several framed and unframed pieces.

Prices will range from $35 to $400.

Call for directions 356-2787 or visit the website at www.mwvarts.org.

Rory Block at Leura Hill Eastman April 5 FRYEBURG — Rory Block will perform at the Leura Hill Eastman Performing Arts Center located at 18 Bradley Street on the campus of Fryeburg Academy in Fryeburg, Maine on Thursday, April 5, at 7:30 p.m.

Heralded as “a living landmark” by Berkeley Express, “a national treasure”

by Guitar Extra, and “one of the greatest living acoustic blues artists” by Blues Revue, Block has committed her life and her career to preserving the Delta blues tradition and bringing it to life for 21st century audiences around the world.

“Her playing is perfect, her singing otherworldly as she wrestles with ghosts, shadows and legends,” The New York Times wrote.

Today, after more than 20 highly acclaimed releases and five Blues Music Awards, Block is at the height of her creative powers, bringing a world full of life lessons to bear on what she calls “a total celebration of my beloved instrument and best friend, the guitar.” Her most recent releases include “Blues Walkin’ Like A Man/A Tribute to Son House” and “Shake Em On Down/A Tribute to Mississippi Fred McDowell.”

Tickets are $20 for adults, $15 for seniors (65 and older) and $10 for students and are available for purchase online at www.fryeburgacademy.org/pac or by calling the box office at (207) 9359232. For more information about Rory Block visit www.roryblock.com.

Waldorf students stage ‘The Jack Tales’ today CONWAY — The seventh and eighth grade of the White Mountain Waldorf School invites the community to their production of the “The Jack Tales” on Friday, March 30, at 4 p.m. at Salyards Center for the Arts in Conway.

“The Jack Tales” is a story theatre production based on the 1943 collection of Appalachian folk tales compiled by Richard Chase. These tales were adapted into children’s theatre production in 1975 by R. Rex Stephenson. Productions of the “The Jack Tales” have been going strong for over 35 years and have been performed in over 35 states in England.

Jack, the hero of these folktales, has been described as an everyman, an archetypal folk hero. Audiences

unfamiliar with the Appalachian Jack Tales are probably familiar with Jack as multi-faceted character from English nursery rhymes.

These same tales appear in southern Appalachia with origins from Irish, German and British ancestors. The early Europeans who settled in the southern Appalachian Mountains then retold these tales, which took on the flavor of Appalachian culture, through the dialect in which they were naturally told and the details from mountain life.

Thus, they represent a blend of Old and New World elements.

Jack is many things in many tales, although in Appalachia he always starts out as a poor son of ordinary mountain farmers.

Sometimes he is a hard worker; however, he is usually the clever trickster or the fool who may learn a lesson about living sensibly but more often just triumphs out of sheer luck. Like his cousins in folktales around the world, Jack often sets out to seek his fortune or gets caught up in a quest at the beginning of the tale. Sometimes he has to deal with witches and giants; he is often helped by companions with magic or super-human powers, and he sometimes takes center stage in the company of royalty.

Children of all ages will enjoy this comedic children’s theatre production. For more information, call the White Mountain Waldorf School, 447-3168.

The Valley’s Got Talent, and then some

BY TOM EASTMAN THE CONWAY DAILY SUN

SO, YOU THINK YOU’VE got talent — and/or luck?

As the country (us included) scrambles to buy MegaMillions tickets for the chance to win a whopping $500 million Friday, others are setting their sights a little more realistically: namely, the chance to be crowned winner of the “Valley’s Got Talent” contest, which is being held at the Leura Hill Eastman Performing Arts Center in Fryeburg at 7 p.m. Saturday, March 31., as a benefit for the White Mountain Community Health Center.

Auditions for the Valley’s Got Talent were hosted at M&D Productions’ Your Theatre March 14 and 21. Judges Ken “Simon” Martin, Nancy Ray and Audley Williams narrowed the field down from the 20 wannabes.

Now, it’s time for the big show this Saturday. The fun is to get under way at 7 p.m., with the doors to open at 6:30 p.m., notes Patricia McMurry, executive director of the non-profit health center, who notes that this is their first major fundraiser.

“In addition to the performances, we’re going to have a silent auction, refreshments and a 50-50 drawing,” said Patricia Wednesday.

First place wins $500; second nets $250, and third garners a gift basket worth up to $100.

Advance tickets are $10 and are available at Northway Bank locations in North Conway; as well as at the North Conway Music Shop in North Conway and the health center. Tickets will also be available at the door for $15.

“It’s going to be a really good variety show,” notes Patricia, saying the array includes singers, rock bands, and even a belly dancing team. “We started with 20,” she said. see next page

The talent includes: acoustic guitarist and luthier (and old buddy) Beaumont “Beau” Chadhina of Stow, Maine; vocalist Kelli Consoli; singer Rebecca Deschenes; the rock band, Gone But Not Forgotten, featuring Steve Tremblay, Mark Jones and Christian Ganem; jazz pianist Adam Levine; electric guitarist Chris Murphy; vocalist Kevin O’Neil; tango dancers Judy and Joe Perez; and the Team Shazaraya belly dancing duo of Teala Higgins and Hannah McVitty. The Pot Luck Singers are also to perform.

For more information, call the center at 447-8900.

OPEN MICS: Looking for more talent showcases? The valley has great open mics ranging from Maestro’s on Sunday evenings, the Red Parka Mondays, Hoot at the Wildcat on Tuesdays; and on Thursdays, Route 302 West in Fryeburg River’s Edge with David Luke in Ossipee, and Open Mic with Jon Sarty at Sammy’s in Tamworth.

Tamworth also hosts Sunday afternoon shows at the Lyceum, and we understand that the Met will host the Mountain Storytelling Guild at 7 p.m. Monday, April 2, for an evening of “April Foolery.” The latest news is that the Jukebox Junction, the newly relocated 1950s-themed restaurant at the old Red Barn Outlet Center (the Bell Buoy of old to some longtimers), is now featuring an open mic Wednesdays from 6 to 9 p.m. for comedians, musicians and poets.

SPEAKING OF TALENT: Last Friday and Saturday’s second annual 24 Hour Music-thon at Mountain Top Music was a hit, 5 p.m. to 5 p.m., raising approximately $2,500, according to staffer Belle Stafford.

“The music was so good I couldn’t leave,” said Belle, who said a highlight for her was hearing former director Mike Skash on saxophone and bassist Al Hospers, formerly of Blood, Sweat and Tears, playing off one another at

midnight, followed by Dexter Harding of May Kelly’s Sunday afternoon Irish seissiuns band.

The 24-hour bash lso featured such talent as Jonathan Sarty, the Black Mountain Ramblers, the Rafe Matregano Ensemble, pianist and violinist Ellen Schwindt, various Mountain Top class students, and a grand finale, with all jamming to “Mustang Sally.”

For more information about Mountain Top, visit www.mountaintopmusic.org or call 447. 4737.

OFF WITH O’LOCKS: A great PBR crowd turned out at McGrath’s Tavern Tuesday night for the “cutting of the dreadlocks” benefit for Jen’s Friends.

Seammus McGrath had been growing his hair for 10 years, and decided it was time to trim them — and if that was the case, why not do it for a good cause, he figured. As a result, the place was packed Tuesday night, with musical entertainment provided

by Those Guys (soulful lead singer/ guitarist Ryan St. Onge, bassist Sean Nadeau and drummer Danny Spofford), who rocked out on a variety of tunes, including a Hall and Oates’ hit from the ‘80s, “Maneater.” Now when was the last time you heard that tune played live in a bar? The tension mounted, as people bid on the chance to cut Seammus’ red locks. Sean Peters was the high bidder at $200, and at 11:30 p.m., the deed was done, with Seammus’ parents, Jim and Maryellen, and sister Caitlin, all also getting a chance. The following day was Seammus’ birthday. It was cold, and a far cry from last week’s 80 degree temperatures — but in the spirit of it all, Seammus completed his makeover, also cutting his beard.

“My head’s cold and so’s my face. I think I can actually slip in and out of Hannaford without anyone recognizing me now,” said the always spirited chef and proprietor of the popular North Conway establishment the morning after his shearing and shave.

The event raised $4,719 for Jen’s

Friends.

FLOCKING: That adds to the $3,000 that was raised for Jen’s Friends last month in the weeklong Pink Flamingo Flocking Campaign.

Look for it to return next year for a longer period, says Jen’s Friends vice president Wendy Holmes.

“It exceeded out expectations. We are thinking of making February Pink Flamingo Fun Flocking Month,” said Wendy this week.

PADDY O’PAWS; FIRST SEASON: The Paddy O’Paws benefit for the Animal Rescue League of NH-North raised a reported $35,000 at the Red Jacket March 17, a successful St. Patrick’s throughout the valley, from all accounts.

Meanwhile, this past weekend, Tin Mountain Conservation Center’s annual First Season Festival at the Wadsworth Gymnasium at Fryeburg Academy attracted a veritable who’s who of the valley, with tons of great merchandise donated by local businesses and great food as well. Auctioneer George “Mountain Mouth” Cleveland as usual nicely handled the live auction duties, with kayaks, trips and more awarded to the highest bidders.

SKI SEASON WINDS DOWN: Wildcat Mountain (466-3326) reopened Thursday. Bretton Woods (278-3320) is to reopen March 31 for one last week. Wildcat is hoping to extend its season as it, Sunday River and Bretton Woods are hosting several thousand British schoolchildren this week. Attitash closed last weekend, but is reopening Saturday to present the funky disco band, Motor Booty Affair, on the snow stage at 1 p.m.

Wildcat, Loon, Sunday River and Sugarloaf all made snow this past week to make up for last week’s warm temps and loss of snow cover. Wildcat, by the way, has cancelled its Arachnid race that was set for April 6-7, according to Thomas Prindle.

“Look for its appearance in the 2012/13 season,” he said this week.

Chef and proprietor Seammus McGrath had his dreadlocks shorn Tuesday night at McGrath’s Tavern, and then also shaved his beard the next day, all part of an effort to help Jen’s Friends, the local cancer patient relief organization. The event raised $4,719 for Jen’s Friends. (COURTESY PHOTO)

SALUTING THE DIABETES CTR. CREW: In closing, we salute the Diabetes Center work of Dr. William Dudley and Nurse Practitioner/certified diabetes educator Patti Duprey as they step down; Dr. Dudley to retire; Patti to explore new horizons.

Being a member of the diabetes club, yours truly and other fellow diabetics in the valley appreciate all of their selfless dedication over the years at Memorial.

Movie Review: ‘The Hunger Games’ In the months leading up to the release of “The Hunger Games,” it was positioned as the next huge book to movie sensation in the tradition of “Harry Potter” and “Twilight.” A record number of advance tickets were sold and the movie had a massive opening weekend of $153 million.

Is it worth all the hoopla?

I can say, with a sigh of relief, that, while the film is drawing the kind of numbers that the “Twilight” series has, this is not another “Twilight.”

Nor is it another “Harry Potter,” at least not the early installments of that series. While “The Hunger Games” is

based on the first of a three-part young adult series by Suzanne Collins, this is not a childAlec Kerr ish story.

“The Hunger Games” is set in a dystopian society in which the affluent and powerful live in the Capitol. Surrounding the Capitol are 12 districts that every year must offer up one boy and one girl between the ages of 12 to 18 to fight in a televised battle to the death. The survivor will be heralded and their district rewarded. This sacrifice is in penance for a years-earlier rebellion. The tradition is supposed to represent the government’s mercy and the districts’ respect.

Reel Reviews –––––

The protagonist of the film is Katniss Everdeen (Jennifer Lawrence), who volunteers herself as a combatant, or tribute, for the Hunger Games in place of her little sister (Willow Shields), who she was chosen for the competition. Katniss is joined from her district by Peeta Mellark (Josh Hutcherson), who proclaims a secret love for her.

As is true with much science fiction, particularly those set in bleak futures, “The Hunger Games” is meant to reflect the issues that plague our society. It is a cautionary parable that may seem extreme, but gives pauses as some things ring a bit too true.

We are a culture that has become

obsessed with “reality” based TV shows that often take the form of brutal competition. “The Hunger Games” merely takes that obsession to its most logical and deplorable conclusion.

The film has an impeccable creative team behind it. Director and co-writer Gary Ross also wrote and directed “Pleasantville,” a very shrewd social satire, and he brings that same eye for critique to the scenes in the Capitol whose inhabitants dress decadently and act haughty.

Co-screenwriter Billy Ray wrote and directed “Breach” and “Shattered Glass” and co-wrote “State of Play.”

Those were all films with tightly told, detailed oriented stories juggling many characters. The same holds true of “The Hunger Games,” which tells its story cleanly even when presenting a barrage of characters and ideas. see next page

Collins also receives a screenwriting credit, which should be a relief to fans of the book.

The violence in the film falls squarely under the PG-13 rating.

There are a few hard visuals — a brick to a head being the worst — but the film doesn’t linger on the violence.

This is a premise that could’ve been exploitive, but Ross shows restraint.

The film doesn’t glamorize or glorify the killings. The characters that are shown as taking sadistic pleasure in killing are portrayed as villains.

Lawrence as Katniss gives an entirely convincing performance that has quiet grace, strength and intensity.

She also shows sweetness, compassion and vulnerability in the scenes she shares with a young tribute (Amandla Stenberg) she teams up with.

The book was told through Katniss’ first-person narration. The film, wisely, doesn’t rely on the crutch of voice-over narration. It is a testament to the power of Lawrence’s performance that she doesn’t need to say what she’s thinking. Her expressive face says everything and we perfectly understand the emotions she is grappling with from scene to scene.

Hutcherson, recently seen in “Journey 2” and more or less giving the same performance, is merely adequate and struggles to hold his own with Lawrence. He is likeable enough, but there just isn’t much there with him.

Lawrence and Hutcherson are surrounded by a top-notch supporting cast including Donald Sutherland as the president, Wes Bentley as the game’s producer, and Elizabeth Banks as the woman that selects and manages Katniss and Peeta.

Everyone is on top of their game, but the standouts are Stanley Tucci as a flamboyant talk show host, Woody Harrelson as Katniss and Peeta’s alcoholic mentor and, most surprising of all, singer Lenny Kravitz as the stylist that helps Katniss and Peeta make an impression before heading into battle.

Outside of Katniss and Peeta, the other tributes are not given much screen time before being killed off.

A lack of character development for these other characters is probably the film’s only major weakness.

I haven’t read the book, but I am sure the other tributes were more fleshed out. It points to the strength of the film that I want to read the book to discover more about these characters and this world.

The staff of our library is initiating the Drake’s Corner Literary Society and wants to welcome those who like to talk about books. Next time you’re in ask about it. Also from the library: they have a new web site, it’s worth checking out. Type in effingham.lib. nh.us and there you are. It’s really getting amazing the things you can do on our library website. Also, volunteers are working on buffing up the old book room. The book shelves are gone, spackling has happened, some sanding, a little caulking, a bit of dust, but the room is already looking better. There are plans to make this a welcoming place for people and groups to gather.

The ParSem folk are once again putting together their spring, Souper Supper. Marking April 13 from 6:30 to 8 p.m. as occupied right now on your schedule is a pretty good idea.

DAILY CROSSWORD TRIBUNE MEDIA SERVICES

by Lynn Johnston

by Scott Adams

DILBERT

By Holiday Mathis SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). A classic piece of culture will be a prominent influence on you now. Your opinion will echo age-old wisdom. Something that has been right for centuries will still apply now.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21).

You are such a strong and able person that it’s highly unlikely, if not impossible, that you would ever do something against your will, even under heavy persuasion or hypnosis. So trust yourself.

That’s the lesson of the day.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19).

You’ll give in to the young and old, recognizing that they need you to bend the rules for them. The special care you afford the less able will add to your stellar karma.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You see through the one who pretends to care, all the while noting that it’s really not this person’s fault. Being preoccupied with one’s own life is not a crime, though it can be mighty annoying to others.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You think of your future in the present tense -- a most effective technique that comes naturally to you now, as you have one foot in the present and the other rather optimistic appendage in tomorrow.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (March 30).

You’ll wield influence, though that’s not what you’re after. You just want to know that you’ve made a difference in the world, and you’ll be sure that you’ve done that. June brings an exciting relationship. August is your time to shine in the workplace. Push for your ideas in September; do an all-out marketing campaign! Cancer and Pisces people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 11, 18, 20, 29 and 30.

by Darby Conley

ARIES (March 21-April 19). You are so charming now that you could sway even the most disagreeable people.

Your smile and the intriguing glint in your eyes are powerful tools. One might even call them weapons.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You still feel alone in many regards, but you can’t deny that in most ways you’re not. The people who love and depend on you are a touchstone -- so touch it already!

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You’ll wonder what the others are doing, and you may have a greater than usual curiosity regarding their whereabouts. Take this as a signal to increase the action in your creative realm.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). You may be wondering how to find someone to sponsor your dreams. Take matters into your own hands for a while, and soon there will be people in your midst to help you take the next step.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Typically, a person is not aware of the process of self-discovery as it’s occurring. You don’t point out, “Wow, I’m learning this about myself right now.” Yet today you’ll sense that something important is happening.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). The ones who think you are exciting are in for an even bigger surprise than they expected. You not only deliver on the thrills; you also challenge, push and encourage people to do more than they thought they could.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Matters of self-control will have a bearing on how things turn out today. You’ll meld your particular brand of steely resolve with a certain novel interest. You’ll seek what others aren’t looking for and find it.

THE CONWAY DAILY SUN, Friday, March 30, 2012— Page 21

Today is Friday, March 30, the 90th day of 2012. There are 276 days left in the year.

Today’s Highlight in History: On March 30, 1981, President Ronald Reagan was shot and seriously injured in an assassination attempt outside a Washington, D.C., hotel by John W. Hinckley Jr. Wounded along with Reagan were his press secretary, James Brady, Secret Service agent Timothy McCarthy, and District of Columbia police officer Thomas Delahanty.

On this date: In 1135, the Jewish philosopher Maimonides was born in Cordoba in present-day Spain.

In 1822, Florida became a United States territory.

In 1867, U.S. Secretary of State William H. Seward reached agreement with Russia to purchase the territory of Alaska for $7.2 million.

In 1870, the 15th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, which prohibited denying citizens the right to vote and hold office on the basis of race, was declared in effect by Secretary of State Hamilton Fish. Texas was readmitted to the Union.

In 1909, the Queensboro Bridge, linking the New York City boroughs of Manhattan and Queens, opened.

In 1923, the Cunard liner RMS Laconia became the first passenger ship to circle the globe as it arrived in New York.

In 1959, a narrowly divided U.S. Supreme Court, in Bartkus v. Illinois, ruled that a conviction in state court following an acquittal in federal court for the same crime did not constitute double jeopardy.

In 1964, John Glenn withdrew from the Ohio race for the U.S. Senate because of injuries suffered in a fall. The original version of the TV game show “Jeopardy!,” hosted by Art Fleming, premiered on NBC. In 1972, North Vietnamese forces launched their three-pronged Easter Offensive against South Vietnam; the fighting lasted until the following October.

In 1986, actor James Cagney died at his farm in Stanfordville, N.Y., at age 86.

In 1991, Patricia Bowman of Jupiter, Fla., told authorities she’d been raped hours earlier by William Kennedy Smith, the nephew of Sen. Edward Kennedy, at the family’s Palm Beach estate.

(Smith was acquitted at trial.)

One year ago: A top Libyan official, Foreign Minister Moussa Koussa, defected to Britain, dealing a blow to leader Moammar Gadhafi. Tilikum, the killer whale that drowned trainer Dawn Brancheau in 2010 at SeaWorld in Orlando, Fla., resumed performing for the first time since the woman’s death.

Help Wanted

by Abigail Van Buren

CASUAL HELLO ON DATING SITE CAUSES UNEASE ON THE JOB DEAR ABBY: I’m a 27-year-old professional who works long hours at a hospital. Dating isn’t easy for me, so I decided to try an online service. My first time online I recognized a coworker I see on a regular basis and have always exchanged smiles with, but don’t know personally. I wrote him a message just to say hi. I didn’t say I was interested in him. I never heard back from him.

Since I sent that message he has checked my profile several times. But when he sees me in the hallways, he turns red and now just gives me half-smiles. I was waiting at the elevator with him the other day, but he was so embarrassed by the silence that I bailed and took the stairs.

He continues to smile, but I’m not sure what to say to him the next time I see him. I think it’s rude that he didn’t reply to my message -- even with a “See you around!” -- but I’m too embarrassed to do or say anything when I encounter him.

Help! -- ON MY SHIFT IN OHIO DEAR ON YOUR SHIFT: Your co-worker may not be particularly adept socially, or he may be reluctant to become involved with someone where he works. Please don’t take his not responding to your email so personally. The next time you run into him in the hall, just say hello. If he has any manners at all, he’ll return your greeting and it may melt the ice.

DEAR ABBY: I work for a national tax preparation business, and I have some advice for customers to make the experience better and more efficient: 1. If at all possible, leave the kids at home. At the very least, don’t allow them to run around the office. We have sensitive equipment and paperwork that is not there to keep your kids

entertained.

2. This is our busiest time of year. Lines can be long and clients are impatient, so please don’t hand us a bag of receipts to add up. Plan ahead and do the addition yourself.

3. Before your appointment, ask what’s needed to make the process as efficient as possible. There are many resources online to help you get organized.

4. If you have business expenses and mileage, have that information organized and ready.

5. Be certain you have received ALL your tax-related paperwork (W-2s, 1099s, etc.) before coming in. Being in a hurry will result in your owing the IRS or the state because the income wasn’t completely reported. This small step can avoid many problems.

6. And, please don’t be angry if you have been waiting and your preparer needs to step away for a short time. It’s not unusual for us to work 10 to 12 hours a day helping customers.

Like everyone else we occasionally need a break to take our eyes off the computer screen for a little bit, so be understanding.

We want to give you the best service possible and making it easier on us will accomplish this task. -- JULIE IN KEARNS, UTAH DEAR JULIE: I hope readers will pay attention to your suggestions. Tax season is stressful for everyone involved, but particularly for tax preparation professionals. Being courteous, considerate and as organized as possible will relieve some of the strain not only for the person crunching the numbers, but also for the customer.

Dear Abby is written by Abigail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips.
