The county is being asked for $15,000 to fund the flex routes, which are allowed to deviate one quarter of a mile from the original route.

Beverly Raymond, the Blue Loon's head, says the Blue Loon has given a total of 7,853 rides to date. The flex routes have provided about 350 rides since they started in early January. The Blue Loon's taxi-like service has been running for over a year.

One amended article proposes to establish charter commission

BY ERIK EISELE THE CONWAY DAILY SUN

CONWAY — The town budget and most of the warrant articles sailed through the deliberative meeting Wednesday evening without much commotion, but the rhetoric exploded as soon as the petitioned articles looking to revamp the budget committee hit the floor.

It took as long to discuss, debate and amend those two articles — two hours — as it took to go through the budget and the 27 other articles up for discussion. The end result was a handful of changes officials hope will eliminate conflict between the articles and the town charter, plus the addition of language proposed by Jim see TOWN MEETING page 5

Greyhound races face extinction

COUNCIL BLUFFS, Iowa (NY Times) — Not many people attend the races here at Bluffs Run Greyhound Park anymore. Aside from a few dozen aging diehards cheering the dogs from the shabby grandstand, the gamblinginclined prefer to take their chances amid the bright lights and constant action of the casino downstairs. But even though the races are losing millions of dollars each year, the owners are required by law to keep the greyhounds running six days a week.

After a decade in which more than half the greyhound tracks in the country have closed, many of the remaining operations have survived thanks to the model used at Bluffs Run. Over the years, the tracks, which were there first, won permission from states to add slot machines and poker tables under the condition that a chunk of the profits go to the dog races — essentially subsidizing one form of gambling with another.

Complaining that they are being forced to spend millions of dollars a year to subsidize a pastime that the public has all but abandoned, greyhound track owners in Iowa, Florida and Arizona have been lobbying for changes in the law that would allow them to cut the number of races, or even shut down their tracks, while keeping their far more lucrative gambling operations running.

Japan’s nuclear energy industry nears shutdown, at least for now

Syrian Minister appears to defect, join opposition

Opposition wins a bit of power in Moscow

(NY Times) — A senior Syrian official appeared to switch to the insurgent side on Thursday, compounding the plight of the embattled government, which has seen the country’s currency plunge to levels of roughly half the value of a year ago when the uprising began.

In a video posted on the Internet, Abdo Hussameldin, the deputy oil minister, said he had defected from President Bashar al-Assad’s government, making him one of the highest-ranking civilian officials to desert Mr. Assad in the increasingly chaotic insurgency, which the United Nations estimates has left at least 7,500 people dead.

The video, which first surfaced early Thursday in the Middle East, did not specify where or when it had been made, and Hussameldin could not be reached to verify it.

“I recommend for all my friends who are still working for the regime to follow my self and leave the broken ship of the regime,” said Hussameldin, 58, who had worked in Assad’s government for more than 33 years.

OHI, Japan (NY Times) — All but two of Japan’s 54 commercial reactors have gone off line since the nuclear disaster a year ago, following the earthquake and tsunami, and it is not clear when they can be restarted. With the last operating reactor scheduled to be idled as soon as next month, Japan — once one of the world’s leaders in atomic energy — will have at least temporarily shut down an industry that once generated a third of its electricity.

With few alternatives, the prime minister, Yoshihiko Noda, has called for restarting the plants as soon as possible, saying he supports a

MOSCOW (NY Times) — While many in Russia’s protest movement have been searching for direction in the wake of Vladimir V. Putin’s victory this week in the presidential election, a splinter group of Kremlin opponents in Moscow has been drawing up plans for new park benches, pedestrian walkways and more efficient parking.

Inspired by the recent pro-

gradual phase-out of nuclear power over several decades. Yet, fearing public opposition, he has said he will not restart the reactors without the approval of local community leaders.

Japan has so far succeeded in avoiding shortages, thanks in part to a drastic conservation program that has involved turning off air conditioning in summer and office lights during the day. It has also ramped up generation from conventional plants that use more expensive natural gas and other fossil fuels in a nation already uneasy about its reliance on foreign sources of energy.

tests against Putin, but not content with street theater alone, hundreds of young Muscovites decided to run in municipal elections last weekend. To the shock of many, dozens won.

“It was completely surprising,” said Vera Kichanova, 20, a journalism student who campaigned for a seat on the Yuzhnoe Tushino district council in Moscow. “Everyone looked at

us as if we were not serious competition, and we won.”

That someone like Kichanova could win an election, let alone be inspired to run in one, shows how much Russia has changed since December, when tens of thousands of Muscovites, earlier dismissed as apathetic, spilled into a central Moscow square for a protest against Putin’s government.

Freedom residents grill candidates at forum

THE CONWAY DAILY SUN, Friday, March 9, 2012— Page 3

BY DAYMOND STEER THE CONWAY DAILY SUN

FREEDOM — Residents pulled no punches on Freedom selectmen candidates at a forum sponsored by the Community Club on Wednesday night.

Residents will vote on March 13.

In the selectmen's race, incumbent Neal Boyle is being challenged by John Krebs and James Brown, both former selectmen.

Moderator Dean Robertson asked the candidates questions that were sent in anonymously. Audience members also had chances to ask questions directly.

Reading from an anonymous question, Robertson asked Krebs if he had enough time and energy to be a selectman. The questioner added Krebs was often late or absent when he served on the Article 26 Committee a few years ago. That committee looked at making improvements for the town office and facilities for the emergency services.

"I don't like the fact that these questions come in anonymously," said Krebs. "If anybody wants to look at the record for the Article 26 committee I think you will find I was at every meeting and if I was late, I was late by maybe five minutes."

But former Article 26 Committee member Lee Fritz said she recalled Krebs being absent from one meeting and being late to several others.

The Conway Daily Sun's review of committee minutes on the town's website showed Krebs attended 13

There are two races for school board. Carol Stansell and Brandon Knox are competing for the one-year position. Neither candidate is an incumbent. Stephen Jones II is challenging incumbent Brett Taylor for a three-year term.

of 15 meetings for which meeting minutes could be found online. Two sets of minutes could not be found online.

Robertson read one anonymous question stating as a selectman Brown made divisive comments that made some people feel uncomfortable.

The questioner wanted to know if Brown would change his ways.

Brown apologized if his sense of humor offended anyone.

"One thing I'd like to clear up, is when I say 'newbies' it's more of a joke," said Brown adding he would be more careful when referring to new residents. "That's why I apologized."

One woman asked Boyle if it was appropriate for him to advocate for a proposed zoning change to allow residents to have small businesses in their homes without going to the zoning board of adjustment. She asked if Boyle was representing one person or the entire town.

Boyle said the town's zoning regulations were made in 1987 and he wanted to make an update. Boyle said his intent was to represent the entire town.

"Maybe I should not have been the one that did it, but no one else was stepping up to the table," said Boyle."Should you have the right to work in your home in 2012? If the answer is no, lots of people in town are out of business."

There are two races for school board.

Carol Stansell and Brandon Knox are competing for the one-year position.

Neither candidate is an incumbent. Stephen Jones II is challenging incumbent Brett Taylor for a three-year term.

A hot topic in the school board race was Madison's possible withdrawal from SAU 13 which also includes schools in Freedom and Tamworth.

Madison residents will vote on join-

ing SAU 9 this March. Then, if Madison chooses to leave SAU 13, towns in SAU 9 would vote on accepting Madison next year.

"What are the benefits of being in the SAU for Freedom and what are the drawbacks to leaving?" asked Robertson.

Stansell said Freedom should stay with SAU 13 because it will give residents more local control than they would have in SAU 9.

Knox said a three-town SAU was a positive thing. He said if Madison leaves then it would further unite Tamworth and Freedom. He also described the withdrawal process as being disruptive.

Taylor said Freedom ought to stay in SAU 13. However, Freedom needs to examine its options if Madison leaves. The school board has set up a committee to do that.

Jones said he's open minded about the SAU issue. He said there were benefits to staying at SAU 13 and joining SAU 9. He urged residents to look at all the options.

THE CONWAY DAILY SUN, Friday, March 9, 2012— Page 5

TOWN MEETING from page one

Umberger asking voters if they want to convene a charter commission to review the charter.

The necessary amendments were for some an indication that the effort to replace the statutory budget committee with an advisory one was halfbaked.

“We’re legitimizing a less-than-legitimate warrant article with this amendment,” budget committee member Bill Marvel said, referring to an amendment looking to add the language about the charter commission.

“For one year that a few people got their toes stepped on, you’re creating one hell of a mess,” Patricia Swett, the wife of budget committee member Doug Swett, said.

Others, however, both on the budget committee and from the crowd, spoke out in favor of the articles. Michael DiGregorio, the author of the articles, opened the discussion by explaining these articles were partly a reaction to legislation proposed in Concord, legislation that could reduce the right of the voters to amend the budget at deliberative meeting. If the legislation becomes law, he said, it would “take away your rights.”

“Are we going to run around and change our town government for what is proposed?” Marvel said.

“I don’t agree with what’s going on down in Concord,” committee chair David Sordi said, but this effort isn’t the right way to address it.

The moderator had to cut off discussion several times when the criticism turned personal, which served as evidence for some of the warrant articles’ supporters that the budget committee has to change.

“This is how every meeting has been,” said budget committee member Kelley Defeo, who was absent from several meetings following a contentious meeting earlier this year. “It’s been painful.”

Other town boards have been “grilled and demeaned” by the budget committee, she said.

“They’ve micromanaged at every step.”

Sordi, however, disagreed. “As much fear as I had at the beginning of the year,” he said, this board, with full representation from a broad spectrum of beliefs, has been “excellent.”

Budget committee member John Edgerton pointed out that the law requires when the committee makes a cut, it is required to specify where the cut comes from. It isn’t micromanagement, he said, it’s the budget committee doing its job as the taxpayers’ representative board.

That didn’t address the concerns of school board member Syndi White, however.

“The way it is now they can cut whatever they want,” she said, and while this board has strong representation from across the spectrum “at any given election that could change.”

By supporting the articles, she said, “the power stays with the voters, and that’s where it should be.”

Conway resident Steven Steiner contested that point, arguing the power is already with the voters. Residents elect the budget committee representatives, he said, therefore the board represents the voters’ wishes. “The voters have all the control,” he said.

Other members of the public made clear, however, they do not feel represented. Michael Kline said after watching the budget committee in action, “It seems to me this is not something that should have teeth.”

Michael Fougere, who is running for one of the budget committee seats, criticized the board for its “bitter old hermit attitude.”

It took a lot of work, a lot of haggling, and a lot of discussion with Peter Malia, the town’s attorney, but eventually amendments making it clear the articles only go into effect if both pass and changing the number of at-large committee members from six to 12 made it through. The language about convening a charter commission was also added.

That, however, didn’t put an end to the jabs, the last of which came from Marvel. “What else at 11 o’clock at night have we forgotten in this mess?” he said.

Voters should approve SAU 13 withdrawal To the editor: On March 13, voters in Madison will be asked whether the Madison School District should withdraw from SAU 13 and join SAU 9. In 2011, voters created a committee to study that question, and after several months of careful analysis and deliberation, the committee recommended withdrawing from SAU 13 and developed a Withdrawal Plan.Following procedure set forth in N.H. law, that plan was then approved by both the Joint Board of SAU 9 and the N.H. Department of Education and has now been placed on the ballot.

The study committee projected that leaving SAU 13 and becoming a member of SAU 9 would save taxpayers about $50,000 per year while preserving local control and educational autonomy at Madison Elementary School and retaining its special education programs. Claims about loss of local control or degradation of service simply are not supported by the facts. Joining SAU 9 would have the additional benefit of giving Madison direct representation on the SAU 9 joint board, which makes the budgetary decisions.

Voters should understand that a School Administrative Unit exists mainly to provide administrative support to its member school districts. In essence, the cost of an SAU is an overhead expense. And while that service may be important to the efficient

functioning of our educational system, there is no reason to overpay for overhead.

Because it includes many more towns and has a much larger tax base than SAU 13, SAU 9 has a larger budget that supports a larger and more comprehensive professional staff. SAU 9 benefits from having an economy of scale that is not possible in tiny SAU 13.

As a member of SAU 13, Madison is paying $50,000 per year more for administrative overhead than we would pay as a member of SAU 9. And what do we get for that additional $50,000?

We get an SAU with a much smaller staff that is lacking some of the functions needed to fully service our school district and which, over the years, has experienced a high level of costly turnover.

Ultimately, the question before Madison voters boils down to this: Is it worth it to remain a member of SAU 13 when you can get a higher level of service for $50,000 less as part of SAU 9? We believe the answer is obvious and, in this time of economic hardship and fiscal urgency, we encourage Madison voters to approve the Withdrawal Plan.

Mike Benoit, chairman Madison SAU 13 Withdrawal Study Committee Sarah Parsons, Madison Study Committee member and immediate past chairwoman of the Madison School Board

Support floodplain amendment to Bartlett ordinance

Jackson voters: Vote yes on Article 3 to repeal code

To the editor: As part of the town meeting voting that will take place on Tuesday, March 13, Bartlett residents will be asked to vote on an amendment to the town’s floodplain development ordinance.

This amendment was requested by the New Hampshire Office of Energy and Planning (OEP) following a review of the town’s current ordinance, and are necessary for the town to remain in compliance with standards of the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP).

It is important for voters to understand that the proposed amendment does not change the existing standards for development in the flood-

To the editor: In, 2009, we, the majority of voters of Jackson voted “no” on whether or not to accept the state building code.

In spite of that vote, the selectmen from then until now, have arrogantly decided (as a personal preference, I presume), against the will of the citizens, to go forward with a convoluted mish-mash of regulations which I understand the town’s attorney describes as legally indefensible!

To straighten this mess out, please vote yes on Article 3, to repeal the present process until such time as the

plain, but merely brings the language of the ordinance into compliance with current NFIP regulations. Also, this amendment is unrelated to the flooding caused by Hurricane Irene. The Office of Energy and Planning review was underway prior to the events of last fall, and was conducted for all towns in Carroll County participating in the National Flood Insurance Program in conjunction with an update of the Flood Insurance Rate Maps for the county.

The planning board urges voters to support this amendment to ensure that the town remains eligible for the National Flood Insurance Program.

David Publicover, chair Bartlett Planning Board

I would bring business experience to selectmen’s office To the editor: My name is Frank Benesh and I am running for selectman in the town of Jackson.

I will bring to the position my record as an impartial, fair minded chairman of the board of adjustment, my record of community involvement including serving on the planning board, and my extensive management experience.

Since 2008 I have been chairman the board of adjustment. This board hears appeals from certain decisions of the board of selectmen and requests for variances. Under my leadership, this quasi-judicial board has worked hard to be impartial and fair minded – and close observers know we have at times supported and other times reversed the selectmen. Others in the community with clear agendas have at times supported and at times disagreed with our decisions – clear evidence that we have acquitted ourselves in an impartial manner.

I have supported and am actively involved in a variety of community groups and organizations in the valley, including Tin Mountain, AMC (trail adopter, trail section manager,

alpine steward), Mount Washingotn Observatory, and volunteer for Jackson Ski Touring.

A principal role of the selectmen is their fiduciary responsibility to implement decisions made by town meeting. I bring to this job extensive business experience as an executive. I have worked over 30 years in financial services and currently manage a team of over 50 individuals on three continents. This long experience means I bring key managerial and financial skills that are directly relevant to the selectman’s role.

On the same ballot, Article 3 proposes to stop enforcement of the state building codes. I will be voting No on Article 3 and fully support the continuance of building permits and inspections in the town of Jackson in accordance with state law.

Martha and I purchased our home in 1997 after visiting for 30 years.

Before 1997 we lived in the Boston area. I have graduate degrees from MIT and BU. I ask for your vote on March 13.

Thank you.

Frank Benesh Jackson

Vote no on article to repeal building inspection program To the editor In Jackson, on March 13, voters will be asked to vote to repeal the current building inspection program. A “No” vote on Article 3 is needed to help maintain a reasonable approach to safe building construction. Inspections in accordance with the state building code insure that new construction and remodeling meets the current codes and is safe for the owners, their children and guests. Fires and other hazards resulting from poorly constructed buildings with substandard heating, electrical and plumbing work risk not only the lives of the occupants but also of volunteer firemen and first responders.

While a small minority may be philosophically opposed to building codes, much of the antagonism stems from a misunderstanding of the inspector’s role. These people view the relationship with the inspector as adversarial.

This should not, and need not, be the

case. A good building inspector, and Jackson has a good building inspector, will work with the do-it-yourselfer, owner, contractor or architect to see that the codes are followed and to see construction progress in the right direction thus avoiding costly tear outs and reconstruction later.

I worked with the library building committee, the general contractor, the architect and the Jackson building inspector during the construction of the new library. The relationship with the building inspector was not adversarial and was, in fact, a real help in sorting out the applicable codes before errors were made. Those involved in building the library worked as a team to the advantage of all.

I encourage Jackson voters to recognize the valuable role that building inspections play in the construction process and overall safety. Please vote “No” on Article 3 on March 13.

Phil Davies Jackson

required provisions of law are adopted by the people — the people who pay the bills!

Fear not! A yes vote does not repeal the zoning ordinance nor the selectmen’s authority to enforce compliance with such ordinance. A yes vote merely instructs the selectmen to cease enforcing the state building code until the voters have said A-OK! Protect our liberties of home ownership while we still have some! Please vote yes on Article 3 on March 13.

Henry Mock Jackson

Vote down article 3 for safety and lower insurance To the editor: Jackson’s ballot voting day is Tuesday, March 13, and we believe that there may be some confusion on the ballot regarding planning issues. First, Article 2 lists proposed amendments to our zoning ordinance, Section 12: Areas of Special Flood Hazard; these are required in order to meet federal standards enabling people to buy flood insurance. We need to approve these amendments.

Article 3 is the one we believe may be confusing; it states: “To see if the town will vote to repeal the selectmen’s process for the enforcement of the state building code until such time as the required provisions of law for the enforcement of the state building code are adopted by the legislative body of the town of Jackson.”

Please understand the following three points as you cast your vote: • State law requires that building contractors, homeowners, and anyone involved in new construction or remodeling follow regulations set forth in the state building code.

• State law does not indicate how the above requirement will be enforced; the decision on whether to require local enforcement rests with town voters. If the town does not

enforce the code locally, the state may inspect — if they do so, there will be a fee and, potentially, a time delay.

• A “yes” vote will most likely end all local permitting and inspections concerning the state building code at least until the 2013 town meeting season.

In our opinion, Jackson voters should vote “no” on Article 3 for the following reasons: • To ensure that buildings are constructed and remodeled with safety in mind — for homeowners and their neighbors, for people eating or shopping in commercial structures, for our emergency and rescue crews, for future purchasers of our buildings, etc. This is important!

• To entitle property owners to qualify for lower building insurance rates, because of enforcement of the state building code.

• To keep our dollars local. Further, having a valley person enforce the code is both convenient and timely.

Andy Chalmers, our present building inspector, is responsive and helpful.

We need local enforcement of the state building code. Please vote against Article 3.

Boyle brought openness, civility to town government To the editor: As we look forward to spring, our thoughts turn to — voting — of course!

Once again, it is our great pleasure to recommend our choice of Neal Boyle who is seeking a second term as selectman for the town of Freedom.

First and foremost, Neal has fulfilled his campaign promise of bringing openness and civility to the process of town government. Most notably, his creation of “Neal’s Notes” available on line every week, has given the public precise and concise information regarding issues being dealt with that concern the town of Freedom. Whether or not you agree with him, he has designed this format not only to inform, but to welcome input from Freedom citizens so that he can carefully evaluate his actions on these issues. It is our belief that public involvement as well as attendance at various civic meetings has increased because of this interchange. This also keeps everyone informed whether or not they are able to attend meetings — a win/win situation as they say.

Among Neal’s accomplishments has been his dedication to bringing the long neglected Freedom Town Hall up to code, working to establish the basic safety precautions that had long been

ignored. This resulted in a safe and secure place for all of the various meetings and events which take place at this facility. He was partially responsible for the new safety building, which surprisingly was completed on time and under budget. This building serves Freedom’s police force and fire fighters, and a recent tour shows that it does it with great pride!

Neal is dedicated to his position, shows up faithfully for meetings, and is always available for a chat about whatever concerns the folks of Freedom. On a personal level, he still finds time to work with youth at the King Pine Ski area, and serves as coach for a Special Olympics Swimming Team. You may also spot him buzzing around Lake Ossipee during the summer months, giving lake tours for Camp Calumet residents. Neal knows what’s going on, is ready to deal with issues, controversial or not, and seeks re-election to finish the work he has started.

We highly recommend returning Neal Boyle to the office of selectman on March 13. Most importantly, get out and vote!

Jim Hidden continues long history of family service To the editor, It is with pleasure that we endorse Jim Hidden as selectman for Tamworth.

Jim continues a long history of respected Hidden family service to Tamworth.

As a businessman in Tamworth, Jim understands the needs and concerns of the working people of Tamworth, and will bring honesty and integrity to the office.

As a “team player,” Jim will respect the offices of other elected officials, as

well as install much-needed respect to community volunteers and all the people of Tamworth.

With a willingness to listen to, and address, their concerns, Jim will work to ensure that all the people will have a voice in the community.

A vote for Jim Hidden as Tamworth selectman will assure residents that Tamworth can continue to be a place people will be proud to live in and happy to visit.

We need Farnum’s leadership, fiscal responsibility To the editor: Willie Farnum has been a Tamworth selectman for six years.

We have had the pleasure of working directly with him while we were the co-chairs of the Tamworth Energy Commission and also in a few other areas.

Willie’s values were very evident to us; he not only carried out his duties diligently but he is often at town or school events, becoming aware of just what is going on in the town. He led to lower tax rates for most of us through his endeavors to conserve

energy, working himself on those projects that brought about these lower rates. Our selectmen’s meeting are much more open, welcoming and inclusive now. We believe his influence has brought that about, with the other selectmen joining together to make the environment so. We need Willie’s leadership, experience and fiscal responsibility especially in these challenging times.

Willie has made a great difference in our town and he has our votes.

Little and Gray have excellent records, experience To the editor: There are four people running for two open positions on the Tamworth Planning Board.

Two of the candidates are incumbents, David Little and Steve Gray.

I’m voting for them because they both have excellent records and current experience. It’s a steep learning curve

to master all the information required today to be an effective planning board member.

Don’t be thrown by the fact that David and Steve’s names are third and fourth on the ballot. Vote for David Little and Steve Gray next Tuesday!

Krebs knows urban planning, public administration To the editor: It’s that time of year, election time!

The town of Freedom is fortunate to have three capable folks running for selectman and willing to put the time and effort into this “volunteer” position. It goes without saying the hours are endless and the pay is minimum, the criticisms great and the thank yous slow in coming.

However, it’s all about what the town needs as we grow and continue to welcome new residents to our diverse population of young and old, families and retirees and year round and summer residents. We are a healthy town, lots of volunteerism, community events, educational support and dedicated community members. Our focus is on keeping the small town atmosphere, quaint and community oriented, while integrating and prospering towards progressive and responsible fiduciary decision making in maintaining our town’s desirable tax rate. It’s a delicate balance, for sure.

My candidate of choice, John Krebs, is a long time Freedom resident, former selectman, land planner, family guy and a true lover of our town’s natural resources. What makes John a great candidate is his vast knowledge of

urban planning and public administration, hands on committee work in zoning, conservation, land management and equipment purchases, a willingness to dedicate vast amounts of personal time and energy in these endeavors, and past successes as a selectmen in systematically analyzing town capital expenditures while maintaining a frugal mindset towards actual expenditures.

He is forward thinking, articulate and willing to face the facts with persistence and diligence. He offers formidable solutions in the town’s best interest, regardless of popularity and is the first to acknowledge his strong, no fluff verbal convictions; a positive character trait in times of difficult choices and decision making. He is committed to insuring our town’s desirable tax rate stays that way. A father of children in the Freedom Elementary School, he understands the needed collaboration between taxpayers with and without children. I encourage every town resident to meet with John, tell him your concerns and get the facts from him. I did, and I’m happy to say he gets my vote.

Lisa M. Lee Freedom

Please vote for Bob Thompson for Jackson selectman To the editor: As Jackson residents, my wife Janice and I look forward to voting in next week’s selectman contest and casting our ballots for Bob Thompson. Bob has proven with his service to the town in the past that he is the right person for this important position. He has served on the school board with dignity and distinction and on various town committees over the years that have welcomed his thorough, professional approach to problem solving. He gets the job done and done well!

Bob has stated that he will listen to the wishes of the townspeople as he

formulates his position on especially important matters. I had the pleasure and honor of serving on the school renovation committee with Bob and know that he means what he says. He does listen and he does value everyone’s input.

Bob’s leadership and understanding of the issues and his ability to lead others to a consensus make it easy for us to arrive at our decision. He will come to the table well prepared and ready to take on the challenges facing our town. Please join us and vote for Bob Thompson for selectman.

Time for Madison to say ‘enough’ on school budget To the editor: At Madison’s school deliberative session, a motion was defeated 64 to 60 that would have reduced the operating budget to last year’s level exclusive of the increases in Kennett tuition costs.

The usual spending boosters were well turned out, but a little better participation from the general voting population would have easily passed the motion.

Those who support what this motion was trying to do can still make a difference on March 13 by voting down all of the separate warrant articles hence saving $64,250. This will make little difference in the school district’s overall $5,778,357 appropriation but it will send a clear message that the voters demand a level-funded budget for next year. With this kind of backing the school authorities will take this grassroots initiative more seriously and the

near miss of this year will not likely be repeated next year.

The full day kindergarten article should also be voted down, as it is nonessential and will only serve as a prelude to higher spending in that category in the future.

Caution: Do not vote against the School District or SAU operating budgets on the ballot because the default budgets are larger (Articles 2 and 3).

In this economy with state and federal contributions declining and the taxpayers facing relative income loss we cannot be expected to make up the difference with ever-expanding school programs. Our school tax burden has increased 24 percent over the last three years and it’s time for Madison voters to say “enough”.

Vote to discontinue Tamworth capital reserve fund To the editor: I urge Tamworth to vote “yes” on warrant article 5 at this year’s town meeting. This article would discontinue a capital reserve fund, and return $26,278 to the general fund. Last year we voted to discontinue 10 other capital reserve funds.

The Capital Improvement Program (CIP) report includes planned capital spending for all town departments over the next six years, totaling $6,145,573.

Of course, each expenditure must be approved by voters. The CIP report allows selectmen and voters to see the tax rate impacts of proposed capital

spending. By coordinating spending across all departments, the tax rates can be kept level without using capital reserve funds. Thus, the recommendation to discontinue this capital reserve fund would decrease costs, without impacting planned improvements.

The complete set of recommendations in this year’s CIP report can be found at www.tamworthnh.org/admin/ulm/ documents/CIP%20report%202011.pdf.

Thanks to the selectmen for putting this article on this year’s warrant for voter’s approval.

Another three years of Boyle as Freedom selectman To the editor: I have known and worked with Neal on various projects in Freedom, since the early 2000.

When asked, he has taken a leadership roll and best of all, communicates with members of the community.

I first met Neal at a Community Club dinner where he agreed to take on the position of program chairman. This was followed two years later when he agreed to serve as president of the organization. During this same time he answered the call for new leadership of the youth fishing derby and recruited both workers and funds to keep this an annual activity for the

community. When the Heritage Commission was established in 2009 he served as select board representative where he worked closely with commission members on finding solutions to town hall safety issues and pealing outside paint.

Neal has paid attention to what local residents want the select board to take action on and he got results.

Most of all he has been proactive in communicating with the residents through his “Neal’s Notes” every Sunday evening and broadcast emails of items the community needs to know.

Man charged with aggravated DWI following single-car Tamworth crash

BY DAYMOND STEER THE CONWAY DAILY SUN

TAMWORTH — The driver of a pickup truck that crashed on Depot Road in Tamworth Tuesday night has been charged with aggravated driving while intoxicated.

Thomas M. Fraser, 26, of Tamworth, and a passenger, Robert Fraser, were both seriously hurt in the accident, which occurred at about 8:25 p.m.

Tuesday.

Police say Thomas Fraser was westbound on Depot Road when he lost control of the pickup truck

BLUE LOON from page one

Riders rely on the Blue Loon for a wide range of reasons, said Raymond.

Some people are disabled and can't drive while others can't afford cars of their own. Raymond says the Blue Loon gets federal funding but it needs local matches to cover expenses.

"Unless there was funding from someplace else, we wouldn't have enough funds to continue operating," said Raymond. "The majority of the time, all funding we receive requires some local funds to supplement the operations."

The Blue Loon is getting support from officials in Albany, Moultonborough Ossipee, Wolfeboro and Tuftonboro. But officials in Conway, Tamworth, Freedom, Madison, Bartlett, Effingham and Sandwich do not recommend the Blue Loon's money request.

The Blue Loon will only get $15,000 of the $36,000 it seeks if residents vote the way their respective officials recommend. The dial-a-ride service runs in all the towns that are being asked to provide funding.

Conway Budget Committee member Karen Umberger says the committee thought the Blue Loon officials' pitch was "extremely confusing." Plus, most of the time the buses seem to be running with few if any passengers, she said. No one on the 16-member budget committee recommends supporting the Blue Loon.

"Why should I support something that's not doing anything for the town?" Umberger said.

Conway budget committee chair David Sordi said members felt the

Albany looks to expand conservation commission

and struck several trees, trapping himself and his passenger.

Members of the Tamworth and West Ossipee fire departments freed the victims from the vehicle and wreckage. Thomas Fraser was transported via helicopter to the Dartmouth Hitchcock Hospital. Robert Fraser was transported via ambulance to Memorial Hospital and was later transferred via helicopter to Dartmouth Hitchcock Hospital.

Thomas Fraser was arrested at Dartmouth Hitchcock Hospital on a charge of aggravated driving while intoxicated and is scheduled to appear in Third Circuit - Ossipee District Court on May 17.

Blue Loon was redundant with other services, was only being used by a small segment of the population and wasn't charging enough in fares to be sustainable.

The Conway budget committee's position shocked Albany selectman Jack Rose who sits on the advisory board that oversees the bus system.

Raymond and Rose pitched the funding request to Conway's budget committee. He says the Blue Loon has given 3,500 rides in Conway -- the most of any community it serves.

"For Conway not to support this bus system is absolutely ridiculous," said Rose.

Albany residents are also using the Blue Loon, said Rose who has heard nothing but positive feedback about it.

Rose said contrary to concerns about impact to the private sector, the Blue Loon isn't meant to put taxi companies out of business. The Blue Loon doesn't operate at night or on weekends. The Blue Loon was designed to help the needy, elderly and everyone else who can't drive or can't afford their own transportation, said Rose Some officials support the Blue Loon to the point that they put the Blue Loon's request in their town's proposed operating budgets. Those towns include Moultonborough, Ossipee, Wolfeboro and Tuftonboro.

"It wasn't even controversial here," said Wolfeboro town manager David Owen.

Ossipee selectmen also supported the Blue Loon enough to put the money in the town's proposed budget.

Ossipee selectman and state representative Harry Merrow says he wants to see the ridership increase.

ALBANY — Increasing the size of the conservation commission is one of the questions that will be put to Albany voters at town meeting March 13 at town hall.

The meeting will start after the end of the annual school district meeting or 7:30 p.m. Among the articles: No. 3 asks voters if they wish to increase the size of the conservation commission from three to five members.

No. 4 asks if the conservation commission should manage the town forest.

No. 5 asks for a municipal operating budget of $578,811.

No. 18 asks taxpayers for $3,000 for Carroll County Transit, which is also known as the Blue Loon.

— Daymond Steer

The service is new and elderly people might be afraid to use it, he said.

"We support them but we won't if it keeps going a lot of years without picking up," said Merrow, adding he doesn't think the Blue Loon is well advertised.

Bartlett selectmen's chair Gene Chandler, who also serves as a state representative in district one, says the Blue Loon should pursue funding from the towns or the county but not both. In Carroll County government, a group of 14 state representatives, called the delegation, passes county budgets which county commissioners manage.

The delegation has had a longstanding policy that it won't use county money to fund an organization that's also seeking money from the local towns. The Blue Loon is trying to get around that policy by saying the

county and the towns are funding different services.

"The same agency is running the buses," said Chandler. "I don't buy that argument."

As state representative, Merrow says he'll vote in favor of the Blue Loon's request for funding from the county.

Merrow says there isn't a public transportation system in the country that doesn't rely on public subsidies.

In Sandwich, a petition warrant article asks for taxpayers to give the Blue Loon $1,000 up front and another $2,000 when a "more convenient" commuter schedule is established.

The Blue Loon is making changes to its dial-a-ride service and flex route schedules. Those changes began on March 5. Information about the Blue Loon can be found at tccap.org/nct_cct. htm. The Blue Loon's dispatch center can be reached at 1-866-752-6890.

HOCKEY from page one

The top-seeded Eagles tied a state record with their 3-1 semifinal victory over No. 4 Hollis-Brookline at Concord's Everett Arena Wednesday night.

The boys from Conway have advanced to the state championship game seven out of the last 10 years and are currently riding a five-year streak of finals.

Dover, of Division II, has also reached the title game seven out of the past 10 years.

Wednesday's semifinal was a barnburner and a nail-biter all rolled up into 45 minutes of non-stop, action-packed high school hockey.

"I probably aged two years in one night," Michael Lane, Eagles' head coach, said, smiling. Kennett is an incredible 89-12-1 in Lane's five years at the helm.

"It was a fun, fun evening; I couldn't have scripted it any better. (Laughing) During the game as a coach it might not have been all that fun, but afterward, looking back it was a great game to coach."

Kennett, who beat Hollis-Brookline 2-1 in the lone regular season meeting between the schools,

out-shot the Cavaliers 25-14 on the night and carried the play for large portions, but ran into a hot goalie (Jake Hahnl) and a stingy, physical defense.

Kennett committed one penalty on the night to five for the H-B. "We were very aware that they're physical," Lane said. "We knew we had to take the hits in order to make the plays. It was another physical game, and to our kids' credit they kept their composure and kept ticking.

"We talk about team play a lot," he continued, "and all of the credit goes to this bunch. They did all of the little things, and in the end that was the difference.

It was a total team victory, everyone did what they had to do for us to win."

The Eagles were unlucky not to find the back of the net in the opening minutes on the power-play.

A Hollis-Brookline player was given a two-minute penalty for an illegal hit to the head just 22 seconds into the game. Kennett created five first-rate chances with Kevin Murphy and Connor Todd both coming oh-so close seconds apart.

PAID POLITICAL ADVERTISEMENT

JACKSON VOTERS - TUESDAY, MARCH 13 VOTE “NO” ON ARTICLE 3 The following article, submitted by petition, will appear on the Jackson ballot: ARTICLE 3: To see if the town will vote to repeal the Selectmen’s process for the enforcement of the State Building Code until such time as the required provisions of law for the enforcement of the State Building Code are adopted by the Legislative Body of the Town of Jackson. Submitted by petition. Not recommended by the Planning Board (3-3-1) Article 3 is NOT RECOMMENDED by the Planning Board. It has been proposed by a small group of citizens. Some are philosophically opposed to the State Building Code and others want to avoid compliance.

The State Building Code is law in New Hampshire and applies to all construction. A NO vote on Article 3 is a vote to comply with the law and support the Selectmen’s process of inspection services that promote basic, common sense building practices, safety and compliant building standards.

Advantages of providing local inspection services and promoting compliance with the State Building Code: ·

Cost - Taxpayers do not pay the cost for enforcement. Costs are paid by building permit fees. People who need the service pay for it.

·

Insurance Credit - New construction and major renovations are eligible for reduced property insurance costs if the buildings are properly constructed and inspected.

·

Fire Risk - Many large and small fires in Jackson have resulted from construction that was not code compliant.

Inspection significantly reduces this risk, providing less life safety risk for firefighters, building occupants and neighbors.

·

Health Risk - Health hazards have been created by non-compliant construction, particularly in plumbing and gas fitting. Again, inspection services significantly reduce the risk of developing health hazards.

·

Professional Guidance - Our local inspector provides guidance and reference for contractors. This service has prevented many costly errors from occurring by heading them off during the construction process.

·

Master Plan Objectives - Inspection services help us meet an objective of Jackson’s Master Plan to “Ensure that every new and substantially renovated building in the town be built to all applicable codes”. (Page 6, Jackson Master Plan, adopted August, 2003)

Misinformation is being spread. Jackson has had a process for providing inspection services since the 1950s. For all these years, Selectmen have been promoting life safety and property protection by providing these services and promoting compliance with the State Building Code.

Good building standards protect all of us and have a positive effect on property values. There is no reason to be concerned that this system, which has been approved by the voters, and has worked so well over the years, will suddenly result in problems.

The trades people, contractors, current and former town officials, and property owners listed below, encourage you to allow Jackson’s current building inspection program to continue by voting “NO” on Article 3 on Tuesday, March 13.

"Their goalie was solid and kept them in it early on," Lane said. "We knew we'd see his best and we did."

Kennett out-shot Hollis-Brookline 9-3 in the first period.

"We carried the play in the period and it was still 0-0," Lane said. "That can be demoralizing to go to the locker room tied, but not one kid got down; they were so focused."

Kennett finally broke the scoring ice 40 seconds into the second period on a goal worthy of the Play of the Day. Junior Dillon Smith found lineman Murphy with a pinpoint cross ice pass and the senior went in alone and made no mistake, much to the delight of the massive flock of Eagles supporters.

"We knew the cross ice pass was there," Lane said.

"It was just a beautiful pass and Kevin did the rest.

It was a quality goal from one of the best play-makers to one of the best finishers in the league."

The Cavaliers knotted the game with 10:11 left in the period when foreign exchange defenseman Honza Havlena (from the Czech Republic) scored with a slap-shot just inside the blue line. That was the last time Hollis-Brookline had anything to celebrate because goalie Johnny Bishop became a human fortress.

"Bish didn't have to make a lot of saves, but the ones he did were huge," Lane said. "He made one save about five minutes in, a beautiful glove save, and I think that set the tone for him. Another huge thing for us was Bish's play behind the net and his ability to turn the puck over for our breakouts. Our defense was real special. Matt Kelly, Chris King and Dan Rivera logged a ton of minutes and they were phenomenal."

The Eagles had a pair of power-play opportunities with five minutes to play in the period, including a five-on-three advantage for 50 seconds, but were unable to find the net.

"I think quite honestly at point we were a little gassed," Lane said.

The game was deadlocked at 1-1 after two periods with Kennett holding an 18-11 advantage in shots on goal.

Todd scored what proved to be the game-winner late into nail-biting time with 4:38 to play. Murphy intercepted a cross ice pass and then slid a soft pass to Todd, who beat the goalie from close range.

"It was nice," Lane said. "During the second and third periods (Hollis-Brookline) was constantly trying to make cross ice passes and Kevin Murphy stepped up and intercepted one and got the puck to Connor. Connor Todd in tight like that with such good hands is such a special player."

Hollis-Brookline tried to net the equalizer, but Kennett did everything right to thwart the efforts, diving in front of pucks, tying up forward and giving their all. see next page

"What a great effort," Lane said.

With 22 seconds left, Kelly lofted the puck to Nick Massa at center ice and the talented junior darted towards goal and tucked in the empty-netter to seal the victory in front of the Kennett fans.

"I can't say enough about our community and the support we receive," Lane said. "I just shake my head in a positive way. Hollis-Brookline had a great contingent and they're just 20 minutes away. Our fans came from two hours away and we had more than them. I don't know how many people we had there, but they were loud and the kids feed off that.

You can feel the energy of this community and we really appreciate it."

Kennett, which is now 157-44-6 as a varsity program, set a new Division III record by advancing to the championship game for the fifth straight year.

The Eagles can match Souhegan with a win Saturday for most all-time titles. KHS is 2-4 in championship games.

"We definitely hope to improve on our finals record this Saturday," Lane said with a grin.

Kennett is now 7-1 all-time in semifi nal games at Everett Arena.

Lane is proud of the legacy Kennett hockey has created and maintained.

"From the beginning the kids have set a blueprint," he said. "Each kid followed that when the were younger until it was their turn to carry the torch. The Chris Kings, Cody Richards, Kevin Murphys and on and on have followed and embraced their opportunities when they've come, it's been special to see.

"They're not just good hockey players but they're good citizens and students, too," Lane added. "We had four NHIAA scholar athletes (Rivera, Murphy, Richards and Kelly); Chris King is the senior class president; and we had 10 players make the honor roll with honors or high honors. This a group we can all be proud of."

Kennett will play No. 2 Alvirne, who beat No. 6 Belmont-Gilford 4-3 in 1:23 into overtime in Wednesday night's first semifinal. The Division III finals are scheduled for this Saturday at 12:15 p.m. in the Verizon Wireless Arena in Manchester.

You can pre-buy tickets in the main office at Kennett High for the game. It is encouraged that you do this to avoid waiting in lines at the arena. Tickets are $6 for students/children and $8 for adults.

"Two teams 19-1, it doesn't get much better than that," Lane said.

Kennett beat Alvirne on the road 3-2 on Feb. 15 in the lone regular season meeting.

Since then, the Eagles have added a new look. The players have dyed their hair blond.

Lane: “We definitely hope to improve on our finals record this Saturday.”

Conway man sentenced for filing false tax returns

BY DAYMOND STEER THE CONWAY DAILY SUN

"It's pretty ugly," Lane said, laughing, "but they did it as a team and everyone did it. I don't think any of them have a hairstylist career in front of them."

Members of the Kennett High hockey team are seniors Johnny Bishop, Matt Kelly, Chris King, Gabe Lee, Kevin Murphy, Cody Richard and Dan Rivera; juniors James Gallo, Anthony LaRusso, Nick Massa, Dillon Smith, Nathaniel Swift and Connor Todd; sophomores Brad Canavari, Michael Ellison and Dane Rivera; and freshmen Bobby Davis, Josh Kondrat and Robert Moody along with coaches Justin Frechette, Todd Frechette and Michael Lane; trainer Andy Trowbridge; and team managers Austin Hale and Reilly Murphy.

CONCORD – A Center Conway man was sentenced in United States District Court for the District of New Hampshire to 21 months in jail for filing false federal tax returns, announced United States Attorney John P. Kacavas.

While residing in Center Conway, Lawrence T. Smolinsky, 42, knowingly failed to report net business income totaling approximately $408,000 on his personal 2004, 2005 and 2006 federal income tax returns, which resulted in a tax loss of approximately $119,000 to the Internal Revenue Service.

The case was investigated by the IRS’s Criminal Investigation Division in Manchester and the Carroll County Sheriff’s Office and was prosecuted by assistant United States Attorney Robert Kinsella.

Kennett High drumline presents ‘Keep Calm and Drum On’ March 9, 15, 16 ‘Black Bears’ program at Tin Mountain tonight ALBANY — Learn about the black bears of New Hampshire with acclaimed naturalist and author, Ben Kilham at the Tin Mountain Conservation Center nature program “Black Bears of New Hampshire” on Friday, March 9, a 7 p.m. at the Nature Learning Center at the Tin Mountain Nature Learning Center, 1245 Bald Hill Road in Albany.

“As we learn more about bear behavior, we better understand bear/human conflicts,” Kilham said. “We begin to learn that it’s not a nuisance bear at all. It’s the way people are leaving food around and interacting with bears.”

Kilham attended the University of New Hampshire and earned a degree in wildlife management. In the spring of 1992, Ben found himself parenting a pair of orphaned, emaciated, four pound bear cubs. The experience eventually led him to parenting over forty cubs, releasing them back in the wild, and researching and observing the whole life cycle of the black bear. By thinking more from the bear’s perspective, Kilham has designed workshops that provide wildlife management with the tools to disarm threatening bear behavior without destroying the bear.

Donations of $3 per person and $5 per family are appreciated. Reservations are requested by calling 447-6991.

Brownfield Food Pantry benefit concert Saturday FRYEBURG — A group of local performers will present a benefit concert for the Brownfield Food Pantry Saturday, March 10, at 7 p.m., at the Fryeburg Congregational Church at 655 Main Street, Route 302 in Fryeburg, Maine.

Performers include: Katherine Rhoda, folk singer from Hiram, Maine, playing the Marxophone and violinguitar, the Lithuanian kankles, and more; Denis J. Dunn, from Kezar Falls, an accomplished poet who has read in Maine, Massachusetts, and Connecticut and been published in Portland’s Cafe Review and other journals presenting with Kit Demos, an experimental musician playing bass; Mystic Out-bop Review, an avant garde jazz/electro-acoustic band; Darlene Jerome-Gijuminag, a Brownfield-based Native American singer/songwriter; Puckerbrush, a local band with Peter Kimball on guitar, Candace Mahar on cello, flute, whistle and accordion and Gale Johnsen on fiddle, appearing with special guest Seth Austen, widely known multi-instrumentalist, playing lively Celtic and old-time music.

Admission is by donation, and seating is limited. For more information, call Gale at 625-3334. If you cannot attend but would like to donate to the pantry, checks payable to SOCN may be sent c/o Jack Mitchell, 52 Ridge Lane, Brownfield ME, 04010.

CONWAY — The Kennett High School Drumline presents its 2012 show “Project Percussion: Keep Calm and Drum On” Friday, March 9, Thursday, March 15, and Friday, March 16 at 7:00 pm in Kennett High School’s Loynd Auditorium.

This year’s extravaganza will feature over 40 drummers, including 12 seniors, in the energy-packed, original production.

“Educationally, this show represents the best possible, holistic experience for the students,” Therese Davison, drumline teacher, said. “The show requires learning in all three domains of Bloom’s taxonomy (cognitive, affective, and psychomotor) as well as all classifications of learning levels. Creating is the highest order thinking skill, dependent upon all the other lower level skills including remembering, understanding applying, analyzing, and evaluating.

Best of all, it’s fun, too.”

Each year since 2007, the drumline has created a fulllength show. The drumline shows have become a local favorite over the past five years. The first show, A Night of Percussive Mayhem,” established the group as a permanent ensemble in the Kennett music program.

The Kennett High School Drumline presents its 2012 show "Project Percussion: Keep Calm and Drum On" Friday, March 9, Thursday, March 15, and Friday, March 16 at 7:00 pm in Kennett High School's Loynd Auditorium. (COURTESY PHOTO

The drumline has a strong commitment to community service. Each year, the group travels to University of New Hampshire as the official drumline of the New Hampshire Special Olympics.

“Playing for the Special Olympics is an honor,” drum captain Justin Gam-

ache said. “The athletes are inspiring, and they appreciate having us play for their opening ceremony parade.

We love doing it.”

The group also plays with the rest of the marching band for Veterans and Memorial Day Parades. A portion of the proceeds from the show will be donated to

a local charity.

“We buy some equipment with the proceeds but we want to give back to the community, too,” co-captain Kris Tucker said.

Tickets are $8 for adults, $5 for students, and children under 5 are free. Tickets will be available on the night of the performances.

Second concert to benefit Baroque Trio Project Sunday CONWAY — The second in a three-part series of concerts “Three for Three” to benefit the Baroque Trio Project will be given Sunday, March 11, at 3 p.m. at the Salyards Center for the Arts in Conway.

Each of the three concerts features the newly restored Hubbard Harpsichord in performance of a variety of chamber music, both solo and in combination with other instruments and voices.

The March 11 concert will feature woodwind instruments directed by Brian Charles, oboist and owner of North Conway Music Shop and will include performances by Charles on the oboe, accompanied by Nancy Farris, Harpsichord. Also performing will be Mary Bastoni-Rebman, Soprano, with harpsichord; Kate

Vachon, flute, accompanied on harpsichord by George Wiese, Mt. Top Music Executive Director; and a solo with harpsichord by Ken Turley, recorder.

“The Baroque Trio” comprises the acquisition of three Baroque keyboard instruments: a double manual eight-foot harpsichord which was fully restored in spring of 2010 funded by grants and private donations. Additional funds to be raised from the concerts will complete the restoration of an unfretted clavichord, and a virginal instrument in a standing case. These are high quality replicas of their ancestors dating back to at least the 1600s.

The completed Baroque Trio will be provided a home at the Conway Historical Society’s Salyards Center for the Arts. Also supporting the proj-

ect is the White Mountain Musical Arts which is committed to featuring the instruments in the Bach Festival and other performances.

“We’re almost there,” Ken Turley, originator of the Baroque Trio project, said “Hopefully these three concerts will help raise the needed funds to put us over the top.”

The third and final concert of the series is scheduled for Sunday, March 18, and will include contemporary works for the harpsichord, instruments and voices. Additional information may be found at www.mwvevents.com.

Spring on the slopes and town halls

BY TOM EASTMAN THE CONWAY DAILY SUN

THE FABULOUS FIFTIES is what we have all enjoyed this unseasonably warm week, with sunny skies and temps in the 50s. Other than sun and temps in the 30s this weekend, AccuWeather is predicting continued 50 degree warm temps for the next week or two. Time to

get those snow golf clubs out.

Signs of the season are everywhere.

Avid runner and warm temps lover Bart Bachman saw a robin on a sunny run Thursday.

Looking to this weekend, we all spring forward by moving our clocks ahead by one hour at 2 a.m. March 11.

You also know it's spring because it's hockey playoff time for the finals-

••• TOWN MEETING SALUTE: Town meeting — another sure sign of spring — has been as a focal point in Conway this week for those of us who follow such things.

We were among the 100 or so citizens who attended Conway's school and town deliberative meetings under our SB2 form of town government Monday and Wednesday evenings at Kennett High's Loynd Auditorium.

Along with the debates about budgets and the role of the budget committee, a highlight for this veteran town meeting reporter was to take stock of our fellow citizens who serve, and others who continue to care enough to attend.

Among those in the audience, comprising the town's legislative body?

Former selectman Chet Lucy, the white-bearded “King Solomon of town meeting.” When Chet speaks, people still listen. Always adding insight were the brotherly duo of past Conway selectmen Bill and Mark Hounsell.

North Conway Water Precinct commissioner Jim Umberger was as usual a steady voice of reason, offering an amendment to the budget com-

mittee article. It was also great to see past town moderator and now moderator candidate Thom Steele offering input. Former school board chair Pat Swett also rose from the audience to add her two cents about the role of the budget committee, saying something to the effect that “this town has run very well for a 100 years, and now, just because some political toes were stepped on last year, people want to change things.” She urged voters to leave well enough alone. Also rising to question the legality of the budget committee article was always reasoned town meeting speaker Bob Barriault. Irene and Jerome Bey — remember them from the Conway Concerned Citizens days of the '90s — also attended, although they didn't rise to speak on any of the articles.

All bring years of experience to any town or school meeting they attend, and their wisdom is a gift to this town's collective social capital.

Other towns will hold their traditional town meetings this coming week. Town meeting is still the best entertainment in town, often with plenty of drama, especially in the non-SB 2 towns. May it ever be so. see next page

••• SCHNEIDER CUP WRAP: While astronomers were looking to the skies for this week's solar storms — said to be the biggest in years — skiers took to the local slopes to enjoy the exceptionally fine spring skiing and warm temps.

This week's fine weather was all a far cry from last Saturday's 16th annual Schneider Cup, presented by the New England Ski Museum at Cranmore.

With rain, snow, sleet, a 40-minute power failure, the only thing that the race didn't have in the early part of the day were locusts.

All of North Conway lost power, which meant that many racers were stuck on the Skimobile Express in their speed suits, just as the skies broke loose with a downpour of pelting sleet. Still, during the power outage, the race crew was able to let racers go, using battery timing.

Among those who took a hit was the ever-colorful Bond MacGillivray, who proved he was shaken, not stirred, when he hooked a tip and ended up in the hospital. We're happy to report that Bond was later released and even gave it a try at Meisters Wednesday — he proceeded to get a time of 27 seconds.

Saturday's weather later cleared in time for the Schneider Cup's always entertaining vintage attire contest (Bond would have competed, as he and his family members usually do, but due to his wipeout, he had to bow out. His sister, Becky Armstrong,

filled in admirably, however, winning the top honors for her 1950s vintage sweater outfit, which was donated to her by Stefi (Reed) Hastings. Many members of the Reed family participated in the always fun fashion show).

For the second year in a row, the young ladies of the local If Pink Pigs Could Fly team won the Doug “Rooster” Campbell Spirit award, joined by one of the dads, Lance Merrill of the New England Inn, whose wife bought him a full-size pink flying pig costume off the internet to wear on the slopes.

“I had it on when we got stuck on the chairlift for the first run when the sleet came down. I got drenched so I took it off for the second run — and was only .27ths faster. What's up with that?” bemoaned Lance after the race.

Kudos to the overall team winner, Cranmore Team I, which was followed by Magic 104 in 2:21.53, and third was Team King Pine in 2:22.77.

10th Mountain Division World War II veteran and past Masters champion Dick Calvert raced for Capt. Ray Gilmore’s team, and amazingly had a time of 38.81 seconds. Dick is 88 years old.

Also on hand was fellow 10th veteran Earl Norem, who is famed as a Marvel Comic Book artist, and New Hampshire native and always sharp 90-something 10th veteran Nelson Bennett, all the way frm Yakima, Wash.

Longtime race official Starr Moore gave several nice homemade quilts to the wounded warriors of Fort Drum, as she does every year. Take it from

yours truly — her quilts have healing powers, and are beautiful as well!

Friday's night's activities included an EMS-sponsored randonee event, for the second year, and a torchlight parade.

Among the 40 participants of the randonee event was Hannes Schneider himself — no, not the one who taught the world how to ski; his grandson.

Very much missed at all the weekend events were Hannes' dad, Herbert Schneider, 91, and brother Christoph Schneider, who came back from St. Anton but did not make it up to the race, due to being tired from all the traveling and time changes. All present wished Herbert and Christoph all their best!

The weekend wrapped up with a talk Sunday morning at the Eastern Slope Inn by Hannes Schneider's goddaughter, Bettina Hoerlin, who spoke about her new book on her parents, “Under the Shadow of the Swastika.”

NEW LIFT: In more Cranmore news, a “say goodbye to the East Chair” event is set for March 18 at 8:40 a.m. to celebrate the big news that Cranmore will be replacing the East Chair (aka “Rickety Red”) that was installed in 1955. It is being replaced with a used triple chair that Cranmore recently acquired from Wachusetts Mountain which will run along the lines of the Koessler Trail n the south side of the mountain.

What makes a movie a favorite?

Page 16 — THE CONWAY DAILY SUN, Friday, March 9, 2012

Reel Reviews –––––

This week marked the one-year anniversary of “Lost in Movies,” my show on Valley Vision. In honor of the occasion, I led a discussion about favorite movies. This begs the question: What makes a film a favorite rather than just a film that one really likes?

For a film to reach the stature of being a favorite it must speak to the viewer in a way that feels personal. Perhaps the movie states your world view better than you ever could, or maybe a film simply reminds you of what it is like to hang with your friends.

A favorite film doesn’t need to be a good or even a great film. It can just be a movie that when you first saw it made you laugh so hard that now, whenever you feel down, it is the film you watch to lift your spirits. Then there’s always the nostalgia factor associated with films.

The films we watched over and over again in our youth tend to stay with us forever.

Often films, like any art, help us figure out who we are. Those films that make that kind of impact become signifiers of a time and place. This is part of the reason we become offended when someone dismisses a film we adore. The film in question is more than just another movie — it is a part of you, so in a way it feels like you are also being dismissed.

As a kid, I primarily watched scifi, fantasy and adventure films. The films I watched on loop were “Back to the Future,” “Ghostbusters,” “Indiana

Jones,” “The Neverending Story,” Labyrinth,” “Teenage Mutant Ninja Alec Kerr Turtles” and “Star Wars.” These films stirred my imagination.

I used to run around my yard pretending I was in a Delorean traveling through time. My first day of kindergarten was made less scary when I found two kids playing “Ghostbusters” and they let me join them. Sure, they made me be the geeky Egon, but at least I had been accepted. It is these sorts of memories that make a film a lifelong favorite.

In my teen years, I entered my Mel Brooks phase. Things started off with more recent films like “Spaceballs” and “Robin Hood: Men in Tights,” but then that led to exploration of his earlier work. It was also around this time that my love of films started to become more substantial and I started making deeper connections and observations.

As I watched more Brooks films, I noticed a drop off in quality. I’ll always cherish “Men in Tights” and “Spaceballs,” but they pale in comparison to “Young Frankenstein” and “Blazing Saddles.”

Brooks stumbled upon a film parody formula that worked for him and he continued to repeat it, but with less originality each time. This became my first assessment of a director's body of work and every time I watch Brooks it is a reminder of why I love to analyze film.

In college, my love of Brooks led me to harder stuff: Woody Allen. Allen’s earlier films such as “Take the Money and Run,”

“Bananas” and “Sleeper” were in the broader tone of Brooks’ films, so it was a natural transition from one filmmaker to another. The difference is that Allen grew out of his slapstick era and I was able to grow with him.

Allen’s more mature comedies such as “Annie Hall,” “Manhattan” and “Hannah and Her Sisters” explored relationships, faith and art in ways that were smart, funny and sophisticated. These films made me laugh, think and feel. While I’m certainly not a neurotic Jew from New York, I could relate to many of the plights of Allen’s characters.

With films like “Annie Hall,” Allen basically created the modern romantic comedy. Without Allen, we wouldn’t have films like “When Harry Met Sally,” basically any Hugh Grant movie, or TV shows like “Friends” or “Seinfeld.” I’ve always had a love for romantic comedies, so much so that I was branded by a family friend as only liking “light and fluffy” films. In a way, that all ties back to Allen.

As I look back on my favorite films, it is clear how they each helped shape who I am today. I highly doubt I’d have become the quirky, goofy, analytical guy I am today if it wasn’t for the likes of people like Brooks and Allen, Cameron Crowe, John Hughes, Quentin Tarantino and Kevin Smith. So, thanks guys. We should hang out soon.

Watch “Lost in Movies” tonight at 7 p.m. on Valley Vision Channel 3 for a further discussion of favorite films with myself, Tranifer Lovely, Erik Eisele and others.

Tin Mountain presents snowshoe hike at Jackson Field Station Saturday ALBANY — Join Tin Mountain for a snow shoe exploration of the organization’s 228-acre Jackson Field Station property Saturday, March 10, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.

Terrain includes mixed hardwoods, spruce-fir forests, several ponds, and the oldest tin mine in America. Participants will vestigate what animals have been enjoying the area through tracks, scat, and other animal signs.

Tin Mountain often offers snowshoeing and skiing programs into the Rockwell Sanctuary in Albany and the Brownfield Bog, but it has been several years since a winter program has explored the Jackson property. Come see where Tin Mountain Conservation Center was founded more than 30 years ago.

Participants will meet in the lower parking lot at the Jackson Field Station at 10 a.m. The trip will cover roughly three-miles round trip over easy to moderate terrain. Participants are urged to wear boots appropriate for snowshoeing, bring water and a lunch, as well as dress warm.

Cost to non-members is $3 per person and $5 per family; members are free; no dogs. You may bring your own snowshoes or borrow some from Tin Mountain.

Call Tin Mountain Conservation Center at 447-6991 to make reservations. This program is sponsored in part by L.L. Bean and the Evenor Armington Foundation, and the Residence Inn by Marriott North Conway.

Rudd, who made snow and drove a snowcat, says it took 22 million gallons of water to make the White halfpipe. They started "moving dirt" to make the pipe under the auspices of international park consultants Snow Park Technologies (they do the X games) in October and then started blowing snow.

"Halfpipe building is very technical," Rudd said.

Though Rudd didn't see the pipe to its completion as he came home to Maine for the job, he also had opportunity during his Northstar days to construct features in the woods and in closed off parks for White, and other top riders like Jeremy Jones and J.P. Walker for snowboard movies and photo shoots.

"We would make sure everything looked nice, transported the guys around and made sure everything was in place," he said. "If something didn't work, we'd have to change it. Now when we're building a terrain park for the public we have to think about the progression of the features and the abilities of our guests. We like to keep people safe."

Hampstead Stage Company to present ‘Robin Hood’April 3

Tuesday nights School District Meeting was packed with voters. I guess everyone wanted their voices to be heard. This was the most people I have ever seen at one of these meetings. Politics is not really my thing. When people start to talk politics around me, I kind of get that glazed look in my eyes. My parents never attended town meetings when I was little and I guess I just never got the desire to be involved. I hope everyone has a great week.

Attitash recently held its 2012 season pass holder party and silent auction of which, Bartlett Recreation was the recipient of the proceeds raised. The $2,805 they received will be placed into our field and facility account. Thank you to the 14 pass holders who supported the cause.

Thank you Attitash for your continued support of Bartlett Recreation, its programs and events.

Bartlett Recreation and the Josiah Bartlett Athletic department are very excited to announce that the annual town games will be returning to its true community aspect.

The Bartlett and Jackson Fire Departments will be in a basketball showdown; in full turnout gear. This event is a fundraiser in which the recreation and athletic departments

raise funds for Hoops for Heart (the American Heart Association). The cost of the $3 admission or family of four for $10 will be well worth the showdown alone. The games begin at 5:30 with grades two and three basketball doing a skills and drill challenge.

At 5:30 p.m. grades four, five, six basketball teams will have a mix up match up game. The firefighter showdown will begin at 6:20 p.m. and we will end the evening with the basketball teams from grades seven and eight going head to head for some fun. Each paid admission will be given a raffle ticket that will enter you into some drawings as well as having some fun, family games for prizes between games.

Food concession will be open serving pizza, drinks and snacks. Come out and enjoy a night of true community fun and games all while supporting the American Heart Association.

The Bartlett Recreation Department annual egg hunt is scheduled for April 7 at 10 a.m. The egg hunt is for grades preschool to grade six and will be divided up into four age groups for the egg hunt and the basket contest.

Volunteers are needed for this event.

Town roads posted for load limit

From the selectmen’s office: As of March 6 the town roads in Effingham have been posted for a six ton load limit and will remain posted until further notice. If you have any questions call the selectmen's office at 539-7770.

It should be stated as a disclaimer that candidate for selectman Henry Spencer is your reporter. Attendance at this year’s candidate’s night was lightly attended with only a few questions being asked of the three candidates for one selectman’s seat, John Meisner, Ronald Witham and Henry Spencer. The basic individual positions of these three were: Mr. Meisner’s willingness and desire to continue to lead as he has for the last twelve years, Mr. Witham’s belief that things need to change and his preference for keeping the ambulance in town and Mr. Spencer’s drive to stimulate a deeper sense of community and viewpoint that many of the pressures placed on small towns come from Concord and his willingness to support or fight legislation in Concord and through our local representatives. The three candidates running for two planning board seats: Mr. George Bull, Paul Potter, Michael Cahalane, represent two incumbent hopefuls (Potter and Bull) and one, Mr. Cahalane, who has served as an alternate on the board. All three PB candidates stated their intention to allow the upcoming master plan to have its due effect on any changes to Effingham’s land use and zoning regulations; further, Mr. Bull spent some time discussing what he sees as a need for ensuring that businesses can operate in Effingham. All the remaining candidates are running un-apposed but were able to stand and state why they wanted to serve. Remember voting for elected officials takes place March 13 at the school. Town meeting will be March 17, same location.

Take an armchair safari March 13

After fifty years of target shooting, Anne Smith finally lived her dream. In 2005, as well as 2007 and 2010), she and her husband, Kirk went on a Big Game Safari in Namibia, Africa. On Tuesday, March 13, at 7 p.m. the Friends of the Conway Public Library provide an opportunity for the public to experience this rare, true-life adventure. Through slides and anecdotes, Anne will share the armchair version of “going on safari.” This is much more comfortable, because in real life, as any tracker knows, hunting means a lot of walking. The couple trained to be ready for the trip; not just by target shooting, but working out, too! Refreshments will be served and the evening is free and open to the public. A word of warning — this program may not appeal to everyone. Be advised there will be photographs of dead game.

Puckerbrush for open mic However you say it – the boonies, the sticks, the williwags, the puckerbrush - they all mean the same thing, woodsy stuff you can get lost in.

DAILY CROSSWORD TRIBUNE MEDIA SERVICES

by Lynn Johnston

DILBERT

by Scott Adams

By Holiday Mathis SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Part of you will be feeling stubborn; the other part will be feeling responsible. So the responsible you will have to coax the stubborn you along the path you know to be right.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21).

Losing your enthusiasm is worse than losing your way. If either gets lost in the confusion of this day, don’t hesitate to gather a search-and-rescue effort together and go find them.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19).

Persistence pays off. You might astound yourself now, doing something you never thought you would do. Know that you’re capable of this and much more.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18).

Beware of people who talk like they know everything. If you were to check all the facts, things wouldn’t quite add up. On the other hand, there’s a modest, under-confident someone who could really help you now.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Your subconscious efforts are even more effective than your conscious efforts.

So it’s important that you know what they are. Whatever is happening now in your life, it’s a reflection of what’s going on inside you.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (March 9).

You’ll forge new connections and enjoy the lightness, bonding and potential these relationships bring. But the most important tie you will make is the one with your higher self, ever present and growing stronger. In June, destiny meets you at every corner. July is fantastic for finances. Family makes you proud in August. Gemini and Leo people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 11, 2, 14, 49 and 19.

Get Fuzzy

ARIES (March 21-April 19). Your personal development will be enhanced by a fixed routine. Consider making a weekly appointment with someone.

The once-a-week structure could make big things happen quickly.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Unfortunately, you’re not going to magically end up with your big reward in hand.

So you’ll have to make specific plans regarding how you will achieve your aim. Fortunately, you’ll enjoy this process.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Go back to a project you abandoned. You now have a terrific sense of perspective. You’ll find that you enjoy shaping and honing what’s already there much more than coming up with something new.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). Maybe it’s something you consume, a show you watch or a person you rely on, but there’s some “favorite” of yours that you might be using a little too often. You’ll have the willpower to tone it down.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Bad memories will have a way of lingering today.

Past slights will seem fresh. You may be on the defensive, and it will be far too easy to lash out for reasons that have nothing to do with the current circumstance.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Though it may be tedious for you, there’s a certain pleasure in getting things right.

So you’ll go over your work again and again until you’re absolutely sure that there are no mistakes in it.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Be realistic about your feelings. Think of what -- or who -- really interests you. You’re not going to have the stamina to go forward with an endeavor about which you feel merely lukewarm.

THE CONWAY DAILY SUN, Friday, March 9, 2012— Page 25

Today is Friday, March 9, the 69th day of 2012. There are 297 days left in the year.

Today’s Highlight in History: On March 9, 1862, during the Civil War, the ironclads USS Monitor and CSS Virginia (formerly USS Merrimac) clashed for five hours to a draw at Hampton Roads, Va. On this date: In 1661, Cardinal Jules Mazarin, the chief minister of France, died, leaving King Louis XIV in full control.

In 1796, the future emperor of the French, Napoleon Bonaparte, married Josephine de Beauharnais. (The couple later divorced.)

In 1861, the Confederate Congress, meeting in Montgomery, Ala., authorized the issuing of paper currency, in the form of interest-bearing notes.

In 1916, Mexican raiders led by Pancho Villa attacked Columbus, N.M., killing 18 Americans.

In 1945, during World War II, U.S. B-29 bombers launched incendiary bomb attacks against Japan, resulting in an estimated 100,000 deaths.

In 1954, CBS newsman Edward R. Murrow critically reviewed Wisconsin Sen. Joseph R. McCarthy’s anti-Communism campaign on “See It Now.” In 1962, the science fantasy novel “A Wrinkle in Time” by Madeleine L’Engle was first published

by Farrar, Straus & Giroux.

In 1977, about a dozen armed Hanafi Muslims invaded three buildings in Washington, D.C., killing one person and taking more than 130 hostages. (The siege ended two days later.)

In 1987, Chrysler Corp. announced it had agreed to buy the financially ailing American Motors Corp.

In 1997, gangsta rapper The Notorious B.I.G., whose real name was Christopher Wallace, was killed in a still-unsolved drive-by shooting in Los Angeles; he was 24.

One year ago: After a trip to the International Space Station, shuttle Discovery ended its career as the most flown U.S. spaceship, returning from orbit for the last time. Illinois Gov. Pat Quinn signed legislation abolishing the death penalty in his state and commuting the sentences of all remaining death row inmates. Turkish television aired an interview with Moammar Gadhafi in which the Libyan leader said his countrymen would fight back if Western nations imposed a no-fly zone to prevent the regime from using its air force to bomb government opponents.

DAUGHTER RAISED IN ABUSIVE HOME IS BURDENED BY PAST

DEAR ABBY: My sisters and I grew up in a horrible household with our mother. She was not only OK with the severe abuse and neglect we suffered, she encouraged it. Now grown up, my sisters have moved out of state and have no contact with her. My contact with Mom is limited although I live close to her. My sisters want her to know nothing about them, and they are very cautious.

Recently, one of them had a beautiful baby. I’m happy for her. Because of the abuse she suffered during our childhood it was difficult for her to conceive, so this seems like a miracle.

I was given the news on the condition that Mom is not to know about the baby, nor is anyone who talks to her -- aunts, uncles, children, grandchildren and our cousins. If I don’t keep my promise, my sisters will cut me out of their lives, too.

I’m angry about it. I didn’t hurt them, MOM did. I went through the same nightmare they experienced. How do I deal with all of this now? -- PRISONER OF THE PAST DEAR PRISONER: Your sisters have dealt with the abuse they suffered by going away, leaving all reminders behind.

You chose to maintain contact with your mother. You have many valid reasons to be angry, but please do not aim your anger at your sisters for wanting to protect themselves from someone who condoned and encouraged their abuse.

Because you are having difficulty with your emotions, contact Childhelp to find the location of a qualified counselor near you. The toll-free number is 800-422-4453 and its website is www.childhelp.org. With professional help, you will be able to finally work through the feelings you have been avoiding for so long and start your own healing.

DEAR ABBY: We have two sons, a toddler and an infant.

I’m a stay-at-home mom who plays in the mud, sand and dirt with her boys. I wear my bathing suit or a T-shirt and shorts.

Later, we’ll take a bath or shower together. It’s safer and easier for me to be in the large, deep tub with them. We have bubbles, sing songs and make silly hairdos with shampoo.

The boys never touch my body or point to my “parts.”

My husband thinks I should be more modest, but I’m the one who nursed them. I’m the one they watch on the potty to learn. My nudity is never sexual in any way. Do you think it’s OK for my boys to see me in the buff? -- CAREFREE MOMMY IN SARASOTA DEAR CAREFREE MOMMY: There is a difference between interacting with your very young boys and being sexually provocative. I see no harm in what you’re doing. Be “modest” when the kids are a little older, but for now there’s no danger of them building an unhealthy mother fixation.

DEAR ABBY: In the past you have asked readers to tell you their pet peeves. You know what really irks me? It’s when a man I haven’t seen for many years runs into me and has changed to the point of being unrecognizable -- lost most or all his hair, stomach sagging to his groin and totally out of shape -- and the first thing he says to me is, “Oh, you’ve gained weight!”

What can I say to these fools without slamming a mirror over their heads because apparently they don’t own one? -NOT THE ONLY CHUBBY ONE IN TEXAS DEAR NOT THE ONLY: Try this: “Have YOU looked in the mirror lately?”

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

BARTLETT — Things are going well at the White Mountain Aquatic Center and its swim team — the Saco Valley Swim Team — this winter. Last month the Center received a $2,000 grant from the Pequawket Foundation which comes on the heels of a grant from North Conway Rotary.

The Saco Valley team went on the road to Colebrook recently for a meet and posted a number of seasonal bests. Coach Maury McKinney took 34 members for their first ever winter season competition.

“The dual meet against the team from Colebrook was an exciting success featuring a beautiful pool and a warm reception from the host team,” McKinney said. “The community aquatic facility in Colebrook was built in 2005 and features a four-lane, 25-yard competition pool. The competition between the two teams was spirited and friendly.”

McKinney said swimmers Ali Adair, Kara Holtgrefe, Hannah Thelemarck, and Ian Gunderson participated in their first organized competition.

“All four performed wonderfully despite being nervous,” he said. “For the other 30 swimmers it marked their first return to competition since the Granite State Swim Association’s State Meet in Manchester in early August. Many personal best times and team records were posted by SVST swimmers. SVST entered 15 medley and freestyle relays which added greatly to the excitement and camaraderie.”

Coach McKinney was pleased with the hearty efforts and fine sportsmanship displayed by his swimmers. At the conclusion of the meet swimmers and parents from both teams gathered together for a refreshing pot luck meal.

Cheer Day

Fryeburg Academy Raiders cheerleaders, Brownfield/Fryeburg/Denmark Huskies Cheerleaders, Lovell Cheerleaders and three members of the Molly Ockett Spirit Squad recently participated in Cheer Day. Thirty-two cheerleaders ranging from second to 12th grade participated. The girls split into three groups where they took turns practicing stunting, tumbling, and learning a new cheer. They also played a group game and then took turns performing a routine for the other squads.
