‘Not out of the woods’ with default budget Legal questions remain; 65 school employees still in limbo BY LLOYD JONES THE CONWAY DAILY SUN
CONWAY — Voters rejected the school budget Tuesday in hopes that the higher default budget could lead to financial stability and keep the district out of any legal
battles, but school superintendent Carl Nelson is quick to caution that may not be the case. "We're not anywhere near out of the woods until we get a ruling from the (Attorney General's) Office," Nelson said Wednesday on the heels of the voting
portion of annual school meeting the day before. Voters on Tuesday rejected the school board's $33.3 million budget, opting instead for a default budget that is $190,000 more. see DEFAULT page 8

(NY Times) — A shortage of one of the three drugs used in most lethal injections has caused disarray as states pursue a desperate and sometimes furtive search that might run afoul of federal drug laws. At the same time, it has given death-penalty opponents fresh arguments for suing to block executions. Until recently, states that use the drug, the barbiturate sodium thiopental, got it from a domestic supplier, Hospira Inc. But that company stopped manufacturing the drug in 2009 because of manufacturing problems, and announced earlier this year that it would stop selling the drug altogether. International pressure on suppliers by groups opposed to the death penalty has further restricted access to the drug. States had to find a new source, but importation of sodium thiopental is highly restricted under federal law. Recently released documents emerging from lawsuits in many states reveal the intense communication among prison systems to help each other obtain sodium thiopental, and what amounts to a legally questionable swap club among prisons to ensure that each has the drug when it is needed for an execution.

Egyptian prosecutors order 15-day detention of Mubarak
Delegates meet in support of Libya rebels
––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– WORLD/NATION–––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––
CAIRO (NY Times) — The Egyptian police have detained former President Hosni Mubarak and his two sons for questioning about corruption and abuse of power during Mr. Mubarak’s three-decade rule, authorities said Wednesday. The detention amounts to a breathtaking reversal for Mubarak, the strongman whose grip on Egypt seemed so unshakable just three months ago that some thought he could hand over power directly to his son Gamal. On Wednesday, Gamal — said to be in “total disbelief� — and his brother Alaa were jailed here in
the Tora Prison, where many of their closest allies have been imprisoned as well, and state television reported that Mr. Mubarak, 82, was in police custody at a Sharm el Sheik hospital after a heart attack. His detention is also the latest twist in the unfinished story of a revolution that became the touchstone for the broader Arab Spring. The military officers who seized power after Mr. Mubarak stepped down, pledging a transition to democracy, have faced escalating street protests calling for his prosecution and, increasingly, criticism for the slow pace of political reforms.
Obama urges cuts and taxes on the rich
WASHINGTON (NY Times) — President Obama called for cutting the nation’s combined budget deficit by $4 trillion over the next 12 years on Wednesday, countering Republican budget plans with what he said was a more balanced approach that relies in part on tax increases for the wealthy as well as on spending cuts. Mr. Obama spoke in strikingly partisan tones in parts of the 43-minute speech, offering a blistering critique of the Republican approach to reducing the deficit and laying down political markers that are sure to please even his most skeptical Democratic allies. The president vowed not to extend tax cuts for the wealthy or to dismantle the government-run health care systems for the elderly and poor. And
SAYWHAT...
“
I hate to advocate drugs, alcohol, violence, or insanity to anyone, but they’ve always worked for me.� —Hunter S. Thompson
–––– and Spa ––––
he said there was “nothing serious or courageous� about the proposals Republicans offered this month. Still, as he laid out the administration’s opening bid in negotiations over the nation’s fiscal future, Mr. Obama conceded a need to cut spending, rein in the growth of entitlement programs and close tax loopholes. At the same time, he insisted that the government must maintain what he called investment in programs that are necessary to compete globally. And he made clear that, despite his compromise with Congressional leaders in December, he would fight Republicans to end lowered tax rates for wealthy Americans that have been in place since President George W. Bush championed them in the last decade.

DOHA, Qatar (NY Times)— NATO, Arab and African ministers met with Libya’s rebels here on Wednesday in a show of support for insurgents who are seeking to overthrow Col. Muammar el-Qaddafi against a backdrop of division over the pace of coalition air attacks on pro-Qaddafi forces. With the United States limiting itself to a supporting role in the conflict, Britain, a key member of the alliance, said on Wednesday that it was impossible to forecast when the operation would achieve clear results The meeting here was part of intensifying but diffuse diplomatic maneuvers as the combatants seem locked in a pattern of skirmishes that rarely change the lines for long. Earlier this week, the African Union secured Colonel Qaddafi’s support for a “road map� toward a political settlement, but the rebels rejected it because they said it would allow the Libyan leader to remain in power.

House panel debates bill on rights of self-defense BY GARRY RAYNO THE UNION LEADER
CONCORD — People should have the right to protect themselves if they are in their car or a public park, according to supporters of Senate Bill 88. The bill would allow people to use deadly force in self-defense anywhere they have a right to be, expanding the “Castle Doctrine” beyond a person’s home. However, opponents including the state attorney general, said New Hampshire has very strong selfdefense laws that carefully balance the sanctity of life against the right to protect oneself. The bill would upset that balance, opponents said.

The bill’s prime sponsor, Sen. David Boutin, R-Hooksett, told the House Criminal Justice and Public Safety Committee Tuesday, “This is not a gun bill. This is a self-defense bill. If grandma reaches for a frying pan, she can defend herself.” The bill removes the current requirement that a person attempt to retreat before using deadly force and also removes another provision that the person using deadly force in selfdefense not be the initial aggressor. The House passed a similar bill last month. Gov. John Lynch vetoed similar legislation several years ago. The committee did not make an immediate recommendation on the bill.

Bill gives all the right to fly a flag at home GILFORD — The Legislature is moving swiftly toward adoption of a law that would make unenforceable condominium association rules against flying the American flag outside one’s property. State Rep. Lynne Blankenbecker, R-Concord, said she co-sponsored House Bill 132 which has passed the House and Tuesday passed the Senate Public and Municipal Affairs Committee. The law would adopt the U.S. Flag Code for New Hampshire. Geri Farnell, who lives in Samoset Condos, said she was overjoyed to hear about HB 132. On Tuesday, the New Hampshire Union Leader reported how Farnell, the wife of a soldier serving in Afghanistan, was told she could no longer fly the flag. “Isn’t that wonderful,” Farnell said
of the bill. “Hallelujah.” HB 132 reads: “No rule, ordinance, or agreement of any kind by a person, municipality, or other entity shall prohibit the flying of the United States flag from a private residence owned, rented, or used by a private person. Reasonable restrictions regarding the size of the flag or the manner in which the flag is displayed may be adopted and enforced.” Farnell has hired a lawyer to take on the association for not only refusing to allow her to display the American flag on her unit, but also for refusing to reimburse her for a flag damaged this winter by workers at the 137-unit development. Farnell, 2696 Lakeshore Road, said she is headed to small claims court. —Courtesy of The Union Leader

R. Michael Lynn
Robert Michael Lynn, 62, of Glen, passed away on Saturday, April 9, 2011. He was born in Schenectady, N.Y. on June 16, 1948 to Doris E. and William B. Lynn. With his family, he moved often during his youth as a necessity of his father’s position with General Electric. Eventually the family settled in the Dover area. It was at this time that Mike first visited North Conway and found a love for skiing and the mountains that would last his entire life. Mike graduated from Tilton Academy in Tilton and attended the University on New Hampshire before permanently relocating to North Conway where he launched his career as a speculative builder and developer. Mike made friends easily and often throughout his life. With his young family, including his former wife, Barbara, and sons, Geoffrey and Benjamin, Mike soon became a well respected and popular figure in the Mount Washington Valley. As a builder, Mike found a natural talent for design and envisioning the finished product. He was passionate about all aspects of his projects, from breaking ground to the final touches. In the winter months when he wasn’t building, he took to the slopes, first as a member of the Wildcat Mountain ski patrol and later as a Professional Ski Instructors of America certified ski instructor at the Hannes Schneider Ski School at Cranmore. Also, many people remember Mike and Barbara as the directors of the Eastern Slope Ski Club Alpine Junior Program where he taught countless young people how to enjoy the sport he so dearly loved. As a father, Mike was a tireless supporter and coach of his sons’ sports and activities. It was a very rare occasion that he would miss any event in which one of his boys was participating. Mike was a very active person and was always up before the sun to make the most of his days. His love of the outdoors never diminished; even after a hiking accident in Crawford Notch in 2003, which left him with a significant physical challenge. Later on he would do his best to instill his life’s

passions into his cherished grandkids. Mike was an incredibly generous and kind man to all who were closest to him. Mike was predeceased in death by his son, Geoffrey Michael Lynn. He leaves behind his son, Benjamin and daughter-in-law, Kasia Lynn, of Severna Park, Md.; his friend and former wife, Barbara Lynn, of North Conway; his dear sister, Jodi Elizabeth and her husband, Ed Hickey, of Glen; his brother, William R.

Excellent talk on challenges facing state To the editor: I would like to encourage everyone to watch the most recent edition of Eggs and Issues, sponsored by the Mount Washington Valley Economic Council, when it airs on Valley Vision over the next several weeks. Steve Norton, from the nonpartisan New Hampshire Center for Public Policy Studies, was on hand to give an excellent presentation on the challenges facing our state. He provided a wide range of economic and demographic information to help his audience understand where we have been and how we got to where we are now. One of the slides he presented was titled “New Hampshire Scores Well,” and I would like to share just a few
items from that slide: New Hampshire’s rank among the 50 states for education (adults with high school degree or greater), number 4; favorable tax climate, number 1; standard of living rank, number 1; education (adults with college degree), number 9; safest state, number 1; per capita income, number 10; most livable state, number 1. Having lived in five other states across the country, I know from experience that New Hampshire is a great place to live and raise a family. But it is still nice to see my adopted state recognized in such a fine fashion. Again, I encourage you to catch Eggs and Issues on Valley Vision. Pat Kittle North Conway
Agriculture returning to the center of life To the editor: “The age of cheap oil has peaked, and our food supply is threatened.” This was the shocking message of John Carroll’s message at the Belmont Corner Meeting House on Saturday, March 26. But what impressed me even more was the statement “Agriculture is coming back to the center of American life.” There is a quiet but strong movement toward local food production, and it’s proving economically viable. The motive is self-interest, so no altruism or sacrifice is required. John said that students at the University of New Hampshire are “bugging” the faculty for agricultural training. The talk was entitled “Pastures of Plenty,” after one of his books, and had plenty of information, going into detail about such things as “Intensive Rotational Grazing,” and the farmers market business. He said that there would
be oil in the ground after we’re gone, but getting to it will keep getting more expensive (and this is true for all fossil fuels, including uranium). Currently, the food we eat comes from an average of 1,500 miles away; as the price of oil increases, so does the cost of food. Decentralizing food production helps mitigate this problem. This is what’s driving the concept of transition towns, described in Rob Hopkins’ book, “The Transition Handbook — From oil dependency to local resilience,” a concept which began in England in 2005, and is spreading around the world. Agricultural committees (AgComs) have begun to form in towns in the United States, including one in Sandwich last summer. “Back to Farming at Laconia State School” is related to this movement.

It’s time that we start telling progressive left to ‘Drill, dummy, drill!’ To the editor: Gas prices are surging again due to American inaction and Middle East strife. Reports have been telling us for years that the United States has ginormous (my new word) untapped oil and gas fields stretching from the Alaska tundra to our coastlines to the mid-west. Not long ago the call was “Drill, baby, drill,” but Obama ignored us and shut-in the
Gulf of Mexico wells and the Alaska fields. Soon, the “progressive left” will be blaming everyone from oil companies to Wall Street “speculators” to President Bush, thereby deflecting valid criticism from themselves. It’s time that we start telling them to “Drill, dummy, drill!” Arnie Schiegoleit Jackson

Idea misunderstands how the property tax works To the editor: This is in response to Donald Litchko’s letter published here on April 9 asking for a repeal of the Conway Selectmen’s policy of limiting free participation in Conway’s recreation programs to residents. Mr. Litchko wants nonresident taxpayers to also participate free of charge, and tries to portray it as a “fairness” issue. Mr. Litchko would have us believe that payment of property taxes in Conway entitles one to free use any service offered to residents. An important implication of this is that nonresident taxpayers should also be allowed to attend Conway’s schools free of tuition. This idea misunderstands how the property tax works and is completely contradictory to long-standing practice throughout the state and nation. Since I am a Madison resident, it might seem that this is none of my business. However, if Mr. Litchko were successful in making this false portrayal of “unfairness” popular in Conway, it could spread like an infection among surrounding towns and beyond. I’m inclined to fight an infection at its source. If Mr. Litchko wants nonresident children to be able recreate with their schoolmates under Conway’s recreation programs, he should realize that the door to this is open on a fee basis, under which all participating towns
pay essentially the same tax rate for the service. This fair plan has been rejected by the town of Eaton in hopes that they can shop around for a cheaper option elsewhere. This is why Eaton’s children are now denied access to Conway’s recreation programs. Accordingly, Mr. Litchko’s beef should be with the [selectmen and] voters of Eaton, not the selectmen of Conway. Mr. Litchko also offers the novel notion that taxpayers who do not use certain town services should be able to transfer their entitlement to those services to people of their choosing who are not so entitled. Here again we see a profound misunderstanding of how property taxes (and most other taxes) work. As most people know (I hope), these taxes are levied based on your valuation alone, in complete disregard for what services you may actually use. You are not entitled to any refund or other form of credit for the services you don’t use. In many towns, nonresident property owners pay the lion’s share of a town’s taxes even while consuming only a tiny fraction of its services. Mr. Litchko also implies that people should be able to vote wherever they pay taxes, not just where they reside. This, too, has no basis in American traditions or law. I wish Mr. Litchko success in all of his other endeavors, but not this one. Robert D. King Madison
Number one polluter of water is meat/dairy industry To the editor: Municipalities are working hard to protect their precious water sources, and while municipalities expend hours of time and energy working on preserving water, the consumption of meat and dairy by the same people, is poisoning water in other parts of the planet we live on. To desire fresh and clean water at home, we are morally obligated to do our part to ensure fresh and clean water everywhere. A true environmentalist understands that the meat and dairy industry are the number one detriment to this earth’s water, and the health of every natural ecosystem. Our water is precious. The number one user of fresh water in the United States is the meat/dairy industry — using over 50 percent. A typical meat/ dairy consumer requires over 4,000 gallons of water per day, while a typical Vegan requires less than 300 gallons per day — or a savings of over 3,700 gallons per day. That’s enough water to: • Flush a toilet over and over again 24 hours/day. • Run a typical shower 12 hours/day or a low-flow shower 24 hours/day. • Have eight glasses of water/day for nearly 14 years. • Save over 1.3 million gallons of water per year. One gallon of cows’ milk requires over 700 gallons of water to produce (water for the cows, water for the food for the cows, and processing). One pound of meat requires over 2,500 gallons of water to produce, while one pound of wheat requires only 25 gallons. Meat and dairy are subsidized heavily by U.S. tax dollars. If the water used to produce meat wasn’t subsidized, meat would cost $35/pound. Those who
eat meat/dairy are receiving corporate welfare at the expense of all taxpayers. The Ogallala Aquifer, the major source of ground water in the high plains of the United States is being depleted at an alarming rate. Farmers on the outer edges of the aquifer are already running out of water causing a rapidly shrinking amount of farmable land. Without irrigation, the U.S. “breadbasket” is drying up. The Ogallala Aquifer isn’t like rivers, lakes or most other aquifers — it has no source of replenishment. It holds water that has been sealed underground for hundreds of thousands of years. Once it’s gone, it’s gone forever. In California, water tables have dropped so low that in some areas the earth is sinking under the vacuum. Some U.S. aquifers are now at their lowest levels since the end of the last Ice Age. The number one polluter of water in the U.S. is the meat/dairy industry. There is 7,200-square mile dead zone in the Gulf of Mexico caused by runoff from animal farms. The dead zone cannot sustain aquatic life. 65 percent of California’s population is threatened by pollution in drinking water from dairy cow manure. While films like Food Inc. and Stonyfield Farm icon Gary Hirschberg, enable people to ease their conscience through marketing “free range and organic” animal products, going back to the way this mess began will not change the inevitable outcome, a dying planet. It is heartening to see so many young people shifting to a plant-strong diet, superior in every way and the key to better human and environmental health. Laura Slitt Bartlett

The school budget, article No. 5 on the warrant, failed 1,082 to 723. The proposed school budget was $33.3 million — $3.6 million more than what the budget committee had recommended. The budget committee had recommended an 11 percent cut, but voters at deliberative session last month put it all back in. According to N.H. Department of Revenue Administration, voters can only add or deduct up to 10 percent from the budget at deliberative session. The default budget, normally a fallback option that limits spending, was $190,473 more than the proposed budget this year. Nelson said by no means does Tuesday's vote automatically clear the way to rehire staff. Last Thursday, 65 school district employees received reduction in force pink slips. "We're not anywhere close to being able to bring people back," he said. "Believe me, we'll bring them back just as soon as we can, but we're not there yet." Nelson said there are essentially three hurdles still to overcome: a ruling on the 10 percent from the Attorney General which has $830,000 in play; Gov. John Lynch's move to reduce the state's contribution to the employee retirement system from 35 percent to zero which puts $428,000 in limbo; and the federal budget which has a host of funds and grants at risk for the district. In planning for the 10 percent and the retirement issue, the school board along with district administrators earlier this month came up with $1.3 million in cuts if needed. Over the past two weeks a movement took hold to have people vote against the school budget. Selectman Michael DiGregorio and the Mount Washington Valley Coalition for Educational Excellence both last week came out against the school budget, urging citizens to vote no. They believe this may have been the best avenue to avoid a legal battle. "Rarely are we happy to see a school budget defeated," Nelson said, "but this
could be a good thing." Nelson was confident had the budget passed, DRA would have cut from the bottom of the warrant into the budget until it made up the 1 percent. He figured that would have represented a cut of nearly $840,000. Now, with the default budget in play, he's not sure what will happen. Nelson said the DRA could rule that the default budget may be subject to a 10 percent cut, too. "That's the big unknown," he said. "It's never happened before in the state." "We have to get a ruling on what happens now," he added. "We're trying to speed up the process and try to get an answer as quickly as possible. Most of the opinions I've heard from counsels have been (the default budget) should stand, but we have to wait for a ruling. I'm guarded to say anything more until we hear back. We have to wait to see what the challenges are." DiGregorio, a former school board member, is confident the default budget will not be cut. "First of all," he said, "through all of the debate I've not has one person bring me proof that the 10 percent rule applies to the default budget. The default budget was entirely designed in case something arose like this to prevent a budget committee from putting a school board out of business. "I'm extremely pleased that we're not going to have to spend thousands and thousands of dollars on legal fees," DiGregorio continued. "As far as I know the DRA is not going to get involved with this. I don't know about the Attorney General, but my guess is the town is not going to spend any money on legal fees. As far as I'm concerned we're done." On the whole, Nelson was pleased with how the day transpired Tuesday. "I was very pleased to see all three (union) contracts pass," he said. "For the teachers, not having a contract for the past three years, it was a little more gratifying to see see that approved and by a pretty good margin. I think the votes Tuesday illustrated that the community has confidence that the school board has done a good job."

COMMITTEE from page one
champions of school funding like Betty Loynd to rabid critics like Bill Marvel. But true conservatives, according to Shakir, lost this election, no matter what they were running for. The only conservative elected was Ted Sares, he said, while Linda Teagan, Terry McCarthy and Theresa Gallagher all lost. So did Bob Drinkhall, an incumbent selectman. “If I was on the ballot, forget it,” he said. Even some returning members who consider themselves conservatives don’t hold sway with Shakir. Karen Umberger “is at best wishywashy,” he said, and John Edgerton “talks one way, votes the other.” But regardless of the makeup of the board, Shakir plans to stick around. “I’m going to stay until the next election,” he said. “They want me to resign. I don’t quit that easy. They can provoke me, and I’ll bite their face off. They can’t intimidate me.” While Shakir has opted to retain his seat, committee chair David Sordi is still weighing whether to stick it out for another year. He hadn’t heard the results by the next day, he said, and it would take a few days for him to decide. Either way, he said, one thing is for sure: “It’ll be a different dynamic than this year.”
Sordi looks at the makeup of the board much differently than Shakir. He sees a range of extremes, from left to right, with a fair number of people falling in the middle. He does see something new this time around, however. “Historically we haven’t really had a more liberal leaning side,” he said. “It’ll definitely make for longer meetings.” The board has 14 members if Sordi stays, with every elected position filled. “Hopefully everybody stays,” selectman David Weathers said. Budget committee members have a history of resigning before their terms are up, leading to a vacancy problem. And getting the different sides to work together could be interesting, according to selectman Crow Dickinson. “It’s one thing being on the outside,” he said, “it’s another thing to be right there.” And all the personalities have not yet been accounted for. There are still two positions — the selectmen and school board representatives — that have yet to be appointed, and an open seat from one of the the precincts. The first meeting, where the committee will vote on officers, is scheduled for May 4 at 7 p.m. at town hall. The committee may have to meet elsewhere after that, Sordi said, because that space isn’t meant to accommodate 17 people.
Madison residents can take items from transfer station again MADISON — Selectmen have rescinded a policy that prevented residents from removing items from the transfer station. Town administrator Melissa Arias explained starting on April 8, residents were once again able to remove items from a certain pile designated for things that are still usable. Residents had been able to do just that for years, until selectmen passed an unpopular ordinance barring it. Residents at town meeting urged selectmen to overturn that ordinance. There will be some restrictions that will be spelled out in a policy. Arias
said items taken from the transfer station are for personal use only. The policy will be drafted at a selectmen’s meeting scheduled for April 19. Among the points of discussion will likely be whether or not residents will be able to ask attendants to remove items from the open roll-offs or the metal pile. At town meeting, in March, several hundred people voted to support a advisory warrant article that asked selectmen to overturn the former policy. Only one man voted against the warrant article, according to town meeting minutes.

Now hiring: One more police officer Seavey 'honored to be elected' BY ERIK EISELE THE CONWAY DAILY SUN
CONWAY — The Conway Police Department is hiring, but not as many officers as it would like. “Currently hiring: full-time patrol officer, applications being accepted no later than May 31, 2011,” the department website said the day after the election. The department had one new officer in its budget but was asking for two others in a special article that the voters rejected on Tuesday. “It means we’ll probably be asking for more officers next year,” chief Ed Wagner said. The decision will ultimately be up to the three police commissioners, he said, but my recommendation will be just because it was turned down doesn’t mean we don’t need those people.” “The voters had their say,” said Rodney King, who was elected to the police commission for the first
time on the same ballot. He was the incumbent, but he had been appointed to his seat to fill a vacancy. “The voters in these economic times can’t support the two new officers,” he said, but that doesn’t mean the need isn’t there. Voters recognize the need for more police, he said, but the expense for two more officers was more than the voters could bear. The two additional officers would have cost the town $75,000 this year, because they wouldn’t be hired until July 1, and $150,000 the following year. The police department is already going to have to find an extra $37,000 to round out the salary of the one new officer that was budgeted this year. Any decision about what to do will require input from all the commissioners, King said, and will depend on a number of factors. “We need to go back and look at the demand, look at the resources,” he said. “It’s a conversation that has to be had.”
as Conway's newest selectman BY ERIK EISELE THE CONWAY DAILY SUN
CONWAY — The newest selectman will be a welcome addition to the board, according to her new colleagues. “I think Mary Seavey is going to make a good selectman,” said Crow Dickinson. “Her background is good. Everybody seems to like her.” “I’m excited,” Seavey said. “I’m honored to be elected.” Seavey and incumbent David Weathers beat out nine other candidates for two selectman seats. She found out she had won the night of the election. “It was a very fun day,” she said. “I stayed a bit low until I was sure I had won.” “She’ll do good,” said Larry Martin. He and the other incumbents expressed regret at losing Bob Drinkhall’s eye for detail. “He does a lot of work,” David Weathers said, and catches things most everyone else misses. Weathers was unsure who would win until the last minute, he said. “It was really hard to get a read on it with 11 candidates.” Mike DiGregorio said he was excited to see “fresh blood” on the board, but “I’m disappointed for Bob because I know he has a lot of passion for what he does.”
Mary Seavey
Seavey, meanwhile, is ready to get started. “It’ll be a learning curve,” she said. The selectmen will elect a chair next week. They also have to decide how to fill the budget committee and planning board spots formerly held by Drinkhall. “We’ll see how it shakes out next Tuesday,” Weathers said.

For DRA, school budget situation is 'all new territory' BY ERIK EISELE THE CONWAY DAILY SUN
CONWAY — The budget committee is covering its bases, with a letter updating the state about the school budget. “Some people felt it wasn’t really necessary,” said David Sordi, chair of the budget committee, but a majority was behind writing the letter. “As a matter of fact I’m sending that out today.” The letter is only eight sentences. It explains that the budget committee cut the school department’s proposed budget by 11 percent, and at the deliberative session the full amount was restored. “As a result of the above action, on April 12, 2011, Conway voters will be faced with a school budget that is, on its face, non-compliant with the RSAs,” the letter said, referring to the rule that limits budget adjustment to within 10 percent of the budget committee’s recommendation.
The letter also notes the default budget, which the voters ultimately selected, is higher than both the budget committee’s recommendation and the adjusted budget. “We tried to keep it as neutral as possible,” said Sordi, who signed the letter. The committee felt it was important to formally report the issue to the Department of Revenue Administration, he said, to make sure the situation was on the record. The state, however, is already aware of the situation. The letter was addressed to Barbara Robinson, the director of municipal services at the DRA.
Last week she said the department was not prepared to make a statement on what would happen until after the election determines which budget the state will be looking at. Now that DRA officials know they'll be looking at the default budget, that still doesn't clear things up. “It’s all new territory,” she said. The default budget might still get cut to within 10 percent of the budget committee's recommendation. “We’re not sure about that because we’ve never gotten to that point,” Robinson said. “We’re not going to speculate.”

Long-time West Ossipee fire chief removed BY DAYMOND STEER THE CONWAY DAILY SUN

Now Open Daily! Spring hours: Open daily 12-8 We accept credit cards
Trails End Bartlett Location Opening Memorial Weekend!
OSSIPEE -- West Ossipee fire commissioners relieved the long-time fire chief of his position at the end of last month. Brad Eldridge had been chief for about 23 years. Fire commissioner Paula Moore said Eldridge had his appointment recinded "for cause" in a non-public session on March 29. "The chief is gone," said Moore last week. Commissioners had put Eldridge on administrative leave on March 7 and then had a hard time reaching him for days. Eldridge was suspended after he had two unexcused absences from meetings on Feb. 21 and March 7. Carl Huddleston will
continue serving as interim chief. Commissioners have not decided how to move forward, said Moore. For various reasons, the West Ossipee Fire Precinct has been in the news for the last few months. In February, there was a controversy about whether or not the department was missing a fire truck. Eldridge said the fire truck was being sold in South Carolina. Eldridge declined to comment for this story. Commissioner Paul Jay believes the West Ossipee Fire Department is turning a corner because of all the citizen input. Residents have been asking tough questions and volunteering to assist the commissioners. "They are here to help," said Jay, adding he's proud of the residents who are getting involved.
With town population at 10,000, precinct no longer eligible for Rural Development funds BY ERIK EISELE THE CONWAY DAILY SUN
CONWAY — The fact that Conway has hit the 10,000 population mark will mean less federal funding for North Conway Water Precinct projects, but the precinct is prepared. “That’s why we’ve been fast-tracking these megaprojects,” said superintendent David Bernier. “We knew this day was going to come.” The precinct uses funding through the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Rural Development office that is only available to communities of less than 10,000 people to do major infrastructure improvements. Come October of this year, Rural Development will start using the 2010 Census numbers, and the precinct will no longer be eligible for that funding. “It’s bad news we prepared for,” Bernier said. “We did know this was eventually going to happen.” Precinct officials were hoping they would have
access to the funding until until 2020, he said, but they scheduled projects crucial to the protection of the aquifer with the assumption they wouldn’t have those 10 years. “Any other projects are going to have to seek other funding,” he said, or be paid for by the precinct. But the main goal was to protect the aquifer, he said, “and we’ve done that.” Ninety percent of the infrastructure improvements have been completed or have begun, and they were supported with Rural Development funding. “The only areas that remain unsewered are the Crown Ridge area, Upper Hurricane, Amethyst Hill Road, the Village at Kearsarge,” Bernier said. “They’re all outside the aquifer protection district.” The precinct still has some work to do in Bartlett, he said, but because Bartlett is well below the 10,000 resident threshold, those projects will be eligible for federal funding. “It was good planning in that regard,” Bernier said, “to do all of Conway first.”

DR. BRIAN IRWIN
Hypothyroidism The thyroid gland is a small organ that resides on the front of your throat, just adjacent to the voicebox. Although tiny compared to some other organs, the thyroid has a very important function: to make thyroid hormone. This hormone (which is actually not one, but rather a few different, collective, hormones) has the responsibility of controlling the body’s metabolism. Everything from the speed with which a person loses weight or digests food to a person’s mood or heart rate can be impacted by offset concentrations of thyroid hormone. In medical speak, the prefix “hypo” means underactive (and “hyper” means overactive). Hypothroidism is a condition by which Dr. Brian Irwin the thyroid gland produces an inadequate amount of hormone. This is the most common of all thyroid conditions, affecting an estimated 10 million Americans and up to 10 percent of all women. Because the severity of the condition can vary, some patients have such slightly decreased amounts of thyroid hormone that they don’t even know it. These cases of “subclinical hypothyroidism,” when taken in conjunction with the more obvious cases, may yield a prevalence much higher than previously thought. Truthfully, we don’t know how common hypothyroidism is, but we believe it’s more common than the medical data suggests. There are quite a few causes of hypothyroidism. Because the thyroid gland is actually one gland in a “chain of command,” malfunction of the other glands higher up in the brain may lead to an underactive thyroid. As such, brain tumors, damage to the pituitary gland (the gland that “orders” the thyroid to operate), some medications, etc. can cause hypothyroidism. While a problem within the other glands may cause hypothyroidism, the most common cause is inflammation of the thyroid gland itself. The thyroid can become inflamed and damaged for many reasons, such as viral infections. Regardless, the majority of cases are caused not by infections, but by the body’s inappropriate generation of antibodies, proteins that attack the thyroid. This autoimmune condition is known as Hashimoto’s Thyroiditis. This is the single most common cause of hypothyroidism. Symptoms of hypothyroidism vary widely, but commonly are related to a sluggish metabolic rate. Weight gain, depression and thin hair can result from this condition. Constipation, fatigue and a slow heart rate are other common symptoms. Memory impairment, intolerance to cold, irritability and a myriad of other symptoms can stem from this condition. Bear in mind that although hypothyroidism can cause some or all of these symptoms, so can many other medical problems. Treatment of hypothyroidism is simple in most cases. Although some forms of the disease need surgical intervention, the majority of cases can be completely rectified with simple hormone replacement in the form of pills. Left untreated, the condition can lead to severe medical problems, such as coma and death. Rest assured, only severe forms of the disease lead to such serious complications. Still yet, only testing can diagnose the disease. see IRWIN page 16
Huggins therapist speaks at national osteoporosis conference WOLFEBORO — Osteoporosis is on the rise and affects children, young adults, the elderly, men and women. Most people are totally unaware of their condition because there is often little or no pain until a fracture occurs. Safe management of this condition is imperative both from the standpoint of a reduction in the financial impact to the patient and to society. If you sustain a vertebral compression fracture or a hip fracture, the mortality rate and the costs are very high. The Sundance Resort in Provo, Utah was the location for the first annual osteoporosis conference on The Meeks Method: “Putting Principles Into Practice,” Feb. 27 to March 2. The conference brought together senior clinicians, trained in the Meeks Method of osteoporosis management, from around the country to present specialized workshops for the treatment of these patients. Betsey Newcomb, occupational therapist and certified Meeks Method osteoporosis exercise specialist, was invited to speak about two programs that she has designed and successfully implemented. One program is called “The development of a Hospitalwide protocol for the management of acute compression fractures,” and the other program is “The development of a safe and therapeutic seated exercise class.” The Meeks Method, developed by Sara M. Meeks, PT, MS, GCS, KYT, is a comprehensive program with a 12-point approach designed to prevent or arrest
Betsey Newcomb, OT, of Huggins Hospital works with Blanche Grant of Tuftonboro on postural alignment.
patterns of postural change that occur as we age but not necessarily due to aging. The 12 points are assessment, education, site specific exercises, body mechanics, postural correction, balance, weight-bearing exercises, modalities, bracing, breathing, relaxation, and advanced exercise. “I have evaluated many other programs to strengthen bone and The Meeks method is the most comprehensive program I have found,” Newcomb said. “The progressive exercises are all safe and start very gently to stretch and strengthen the back, abdomi-
nal core, and hips. The goal is to prevent the next fracture. I have seen measurable improvement in every person who takes the class.” At Huggins Hospital’s Back Bay Rehabilitation Newcomb currently instructs the “Walk Tall” out-patient programs for people with osteoporosis, osteopenia and for those who have postural changes and often are in pain. The program is safe and effective in reversing the patterns of postural change. see OSTEOPOROSIS page 16
Memorial Hospital goes green with help from the nursing staff CONWAY — Memorial Hospital announced today that in celebration of Earth Day (April 22) patients admitted to the hospital after April 15 will find a new “green” admissions kit in their rooms. The new visually appealing kits were designed by Memorial Hospital’s nursing staff and assembled in Silver Lake, by Barclay Crocker Inc., a local Internet toiletries company. “The idea for the kit has evolved over several years,” said Ethnee Garner, vice president of nursing at Memorial Hospital. We think the new look is appro-
priate to the Hospital’s long-term commitment to helping our inhospital patients feel comfortable and at home with their surroundings, while also providing that personal touch that we think patients will really appreciate.” The stylish kit, that has been assembled with 70 percent less plastic, is very “green,” or environmentally friendly, and is being offered in an attractive, biodegradable bag, adorned with the hospital’s logo, is a lime green color to underscore the “green” theme. see GREEN page 14

Diet Detective
Charles Stuart Platkin
Diet Detective’s movies that educate, encourage and enrage you to think about the foods you eat Movies can be quite inspirational; in fact, a few have the power to stimulate real change in our lives. I’ve watched several documentary films about food in the last several months, and I’ve found them to be entertaining, interesting and inspirational. Here are a few you might want to watch.
Food, Inc. Synopsis (from the filmmakers): “In Food, Inc., filmmaker Robert Kenner lifts the veil on our nation’s food industry, exposing the highly mechanized underbelly that has been hidden from the American consumer with the consent of our government’s regulatory agencies, USDA and FDA. Our nation’s food supply is now controlled by a handful of corporations that often put profit ahead of consumer health, the livelihood of the American farmer, the safety of workers and our own environment. We have bigger-breasted chickens, the perfect pork chop, herbicide-resistant soybean seeds, even tomatoes that won’t go bad, but we also have new strains of E. coli the harmful bacteria that causes illness for an estimated 73,000 Americans annually. We are riddled with widespread obesity, particularly among children, and an epidemic level of diabetes among adults. “Featuring interviews with such experts as Eric Schlosser (Fast Food Nation), Michael Pollan (The Omnivore’s Dilemma and In Defense of Food: An Eater’s Manifesto) along with forward-thinking social entrepreneurs like Stonyfield’s Gary Hirshberg and Polyface Farms’ Joel Salatin, Food, Inc. reveals surprising and often shocking truths about what we eat, how it’s produced, whom we have become as a nation and where we are going from here.” Trailer: www .foodincmovie.com/trailer-and-photos. php. Time: 93 minutes. Website: www .foodincmovie. com. Why You Need to Watch: This is an intense, fantastic film. If you see only one movie, this is the one that will get you really thinking about the foods you eat. One word of caution: Eat before you watch the movie. Ingredients Synopsis (from the filmmakers): “American food is in a state of crisis. Health, food costs and our environment are all in jeopardy. A movement to put good food back on the table is emerging. What began 30 years GREEN from page 13
Each kit contains all of the items a patient is likely to need during their stay in hospital. Special care has been taken to include items that are hygienic, organic and biodegradable: The roll-on deodorant is aluminum and paraben-free (free of chemicals widely used as preservatives in the cosmetic and pharmaceutical industries) and the soap is an all-natural olive/aloe bar (that bears no resemblance to the standard hotelsized sliver of soap). Other items include: a 32-ounce water pitcher with a straw and ounce measurements
ago with chefs demanding better flavor, has inspired consumers to seek relationships with nearby farmers. This is local food. A feature-length documentary, Ingredients illustrates how people around the country are working to revitalize that connection. Narrated by Bebe Neuwirth, the film takes us across the U.S. from the diversified farms of the Hudson River and Willamette Valleys to the urban food deserts of Harlem and to the kitchens of celebrated chefs Alice Waters, Peter Hoffman and Greg Higgins. Ingredients is a journey that reveals the people behind the movement to bring good food back to the table and health back to our communities.” Trailer: www .ingredientsfilm.com (on front page of website). Time: 73 minutes. Website: www .ingredientsfilm.com. Why You Need to Watch: I would argue that this is the sequel to Food, Inc. It introduces viewers to the good food movement, including the concept of eating local foods.
Two Angry Moms Synopsis (from the filmmakers): “Amy Kalafa was stewing for years, packing her kids lunches from home and trying to get her community to pay attention to what kids are eating in school. When news of a national child health crisis began making headlines, Amy, an award-winning documentary filmmaker, decided to take the fight to film. Two Angry Moms is Amy’s quest to learn what she and other parents need to know and do to get better food in their kids’ schools. “Susan Rubin had been trying for a decade to work with her district on improving school food, earning herself a reputation as a rabble-rouser with a ‘macrobiotic agenda’ (NOT!). She’s even been banned from her children’s school cafeteria! In the meantime, legions of kids continue to make a daily lunch out of neon green slushies, greasy fries and supersize cookies, imperiling not only their long-term health but also their ability to learn. Exasperated, Susan decided to reach beyond her school district, and founded Better School Food, her own grassroots organization. “Part exposé, part ‘how-to,’ Amy chronicles the efforts of Susan and other leaders in the fledgling better school food movement as they take on the system nationwide.” Trailer: www .angrymoms.org/video.php. Time: 86 minutes. Website: www .angrymoms.org. for hydration levels; a sturdy hand comb; toothbrush and toothpaste; mouthwash; a two-ounce Purrell sanitizer, a jumbo sized Kleenex box, terry non-lip socks, lip balm and a “belongings” bag. “Barclay Crocker (www.barclaycrocker.com) has also included two-ounce bottles of their unscented parabenfree (free of chemicals widely used as preservatives in the cosmetic and pharmaceutical industries) All Over Body Wash and Vitamin E and Elder Body Lotion as well as a cheerful welcome brochure filled with positive sayings to promote health ideas and healing with links to health care sites,” said Garner.
“When I purchased my hearing aids a few years ago you said that you would service any problems that might arise. Well I had a problem with both units, dropped them off and presto, returned repaired. It’s refreshing to do business with an honest man. Thank you.” — Henry Dubois, Limington, Maine

Why You Need to Watch: If you have children, grandchildren, nieces or nephews, this is a must-watch film. Amy is a wonderful filmmaker and grassroots organizer. Super Size Me Synopsis: This is the granddaddy of all the “food” movies -- the one that started it all. Morgan Spurlock eats nothing but McDonald’s food for 30 days. Guess what happens? Not very good. Film: www.hulu.com/watch/63283/super-size-me. Time: 96 minutes. Website: http ://super-size-me.morganspurlock.com. Why You Need to Watch: Do you eat fast food? Watch this and you will get the message: Eating nothing but fast food could make you very sick.
King Corn Synopsis (from the filmmakers): “King Corn is a feature documentary about two friends, one acre of corn, and the subsidized crop that drives our fast-food nation. “In King Corn, Ian Cheney and Curt Ellis, best friends from college on the east coast, move to the heartland to learn where their food comes from. With the help of friendly neighbors, genetically modified seeds, and powerful herbicides, they plant and grow a bumper crop of America’s most-productive, mostsubsidized grain on one acre of Iowa soil. But when they try to follow their pile of corn into the food system, what they find raises troubling questions about how we eat and how we farm.” Trailer: www.youtube.com/watch?v=tGSsScjwQ3 Y&feature=related. Time: 88 minutes. Website: www .kingcorn.net. Why You Need to Watch: Did you know that nearly all the food you eat contains corn and not the kind you eat at a barbecue? Watch and learn about what you eat. Other films to add to your Netflix queue: Fat, Sick & Nearly Dead, The Future of Food, Fresh, Farmer Joe and Food Fight.

Our goal is to offer a kit that will parallel a quality hospital experience and serve as an extension of Memorial’s mission to ensure that a patient’s hospital experience is first-rate and caring on every level.”

Women Veterans Information and Benefits Fair May 10 TILTON —The Women Veterans of America N.H. Chapter 41 is working in partnership with a number of organizations to honor the new women veteran’s wing at the New Hampshire Veterans Home in Tilton. In addition, a Women Veterans Benefits and Information Fair will take place in conjunction with that ceremony on Tuesday, May 10, at New Hampshire Veterans Home, 139 Winter Street, Tilton from 10 a.m. through 2 p.m. At 11:30 a.m. there will be a ceremony to honor the service of the women veteran residents, Veterans Home staff, and the wing opened and designed for women veterans in the state. This unique event will be only the second benefits and information fair designed to focus on the growing population of almost 10,000 women veterans in New Hampshire. The goal is to bring women veterans together to provide displays of information on the benefits and services to which they may be entitled under federal, state, or local law and the support groups available to them. Many women who served may not even know that they are entitled to benefits. The fair is designed to make them aware of their status as veterans and inform them of benefits to which they might be entitled. The fair represents a partnership between the N.H. Chapter 41 of the Women Veterans of America, The New Hampshire Office of Veterans Services, the New Hampshire Veterans Home, Manchester VA Medical Center, Manchester VA Regional Office, VA Vet Centers, Department of Health and Human Services and many Community Partners.

A simple dental exam can save your life A routine oral exam at your dentist’s office can make the difference in detecting early warning signs of cancer, yet many people don’t know this simple, painless, 20-minute check up should be done once every year. Approximately 30,000 new cases of oral cancer are diagnosed each year in the United States. According to the American Cancer Society, oral cancer occurs almost as frequently as leukemia and claims almost as many lives as melanoma cancer. “It’s amazing how few people realize the importance of this exam,” said Allison White of North Country Dental in Gorham. “We’ve saved several people’s lives by doing dental oral cancer examinations.” Many people don’t even know the exam is taking place while the dentist or hygienist is doing it. “They don’t understand what we’re really doing. They just think we’re checking their teeth for cavities and such. So if they don’t think they have cavities or some kind of actual problem or if they
have dentures or caps, they tend to not schedule that once-a-year check up. And that’s what gets them.” Routine oral cancer exams are not being done in the medical field. Doctors do general screenings and often the check up is not area-specific unless they observe something obvious, like exterior swelling or lumps. If it’s not visible to the naked eye, they’re not going to notice. Doctors assume your going to your dentist for oral cancer screenings. During a dental oral exam, the dentist moves the tongue, checks the glands in the mouth, even checks the patient’s head and neck. A dentist feels for physical anomalies in an area that would be overlooked by a general physician. Cancers can be detected before more obvious external indications arise by changes or abnormalities in the glands of the mouth, under the tongue, or in the tongue itself. Routine, careful examination of patients is appropriate and necessary. This can easily be achieved
during a regular dental visit. The stage at which an oral cancer is diagnosed is critical to the course of the disease. When detected at its earliest stage, oral cancer is more easily treated and cured. When detected late, the overall five-year survival rate is about 50 percent. Although North Country Dental is doing a pretty good job of keeping patients informed, not enough is done to spotlight the effectiveness or the importance of a dental oral exam in catching the first signs of cancer. Dental oral exams are a great service. They deserve more attention. The exam takes only 20 minutes and it can save your life.
successfully treated. Call Huggins Back Bay Rehabilitation 569-7565 for more information on individual treatment or to sign up for the next six-week “Walk Tall” class which will start May 3. All participants will need a physician’s order, a bone density test, and will be evaluated by Betsey Newcomb, OT, prior to starting the program. Class space is limited. If you don’t have a recent bone density test, Huggins Hospital’s
Medical Imaging Department recently acquired a new bone densitometry machine. “The bone density test is a painless exam consisting of a very low dose x-ray,” said Louise Saxby, Director of Medical Imaging. “The entire process takes just minutes to complete in a comfortable environment.” For more information about bone density testing at Huggins Hospital or the Walk Tall program, visit the website at www.hugginshospital.org.

Your primary care physician (PCP) can initiate thyroid testing in the event you have symptoms consistent with hypothyroidism. Often only a series of blood tests are required to seal a diagnosis and start treatment. In more complicated cases, consultation with an endocrinologist may be helpful. Regardless of who is diagnosing or treating your thyroid, this tremendously common condition is worth discussing at your next medical appointment. Or, perhaps, it in itself is a topic worthy of scheduling an appointment. Dr. Brian Irwin is a family physician at Tamworth Family Medicine, a division of Huggins Hospital.

Coloring your Life I’ve been “the woman in black” since I was old enough to chose my own clothing. I like black. It looks good on me, it’s practical and it negates the need for me to think about matching things in the morning. Other colors do dot my wardrobe in small doses. If I’m feeling really feisty, I’ll toss on a white blouse with my black pants. The colors we wear say a lot about us, our mood and our personality. Apparently my wardrobe leads people to believe that I know where they buried Jimmy Hoffa (and no I don’t… honestly … ), but I’m okay with that. It works for me. Color can also influence your health and happiness. R. Douglas Fields writing for Psychology Today reports, “Colors influence object preferences in many situations in modern life, for example house paint, clothes, and furniture. Our individual preference for a particular color associated with these objects (a living room wall or an automobile) will be produced and reinforced by the positive feedback associated with the object and the color it has. Everyone has a somewhat different life experience, and so as people increasingly experience pleasure in something they bought in a particular color, they will tend to chose similar objects
in the future with the same color. This leads to a self perpetuating situation.” Well, that’s a mouthful. Let’s break that down. When we have a positive experience, with which we associate a color, we will tend to make future color choices based on that experience. That color choice can relax, invigorate, inspire, calm or otherwise alter our mental and physical health simply by making us happy. Let’s say your family had a yellow kitchen growing up. You have fond memories of good times, comfort food and love circulating around that room and experience. Look around you. How much yellow is in your life? I don’t know how this theory will pan out for you, but it seems to explain a color I like to paint with called “barn red.” It’s a sort of rusty brownish red — much the color of the Irish Setters in our family who have brought so much joy to my life. Food for thought isn’t it? In the world of alternative medicine, using color to effect mood, health or behavior is called chromotherapy. Chromotherapy is based on the theory that working with certain colors in relation to our physical and mental health can produce healing and/or soothing effects. One practice recommends surround-

ing yourself in light of the color prescribed for your ailment. This is also seen in practices that deal with chakras, color visualization and meditations based on colors. Does chromotherapy work? It has a long history and there is an abundance of personal experience supporting that, for some people, it does. Modern scientific research into its effectiveness is, however, scarce at best. You can read more about chakras and chromotherapy at http://www. ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/ PMC1297510/. Always check in with your health care provider before using alternative medicines of any kind. Even if they don’t support the practice, they should be able to objectively tell you if you’re headed down a dangerous path.

Red Cross Hero in Jackson Congratulations to Police Chief Karl Meyers who was honored on March 24 at the American Red Cross Annual Heroes Breakfast in Concord for saving the life of a man who collapsed from sudden cardiac arrest. The Annual Heroes Breakfast is a signature event of the American Red Cross, a way to honor and recognize local heroes whose good deeds and selfless acts have helped our communities. Karl Meyers responded to an urgent call for medical assistance for an unconscious man in a vehicle who was not responding. When Chief Meyers arrived, he was the only emergency responder on the scene. He immediately started CPR, and then used the department’s AED (automated external defibrillator). He was able to keep the man alive until the ambulance arrived. Breakfast with Laura Waterman at the White Mountain Cafe Sunday April 17 This Sunday, there will be a book signing by another noted outdoors writer, the climber Laura Waterman at the cafe in Jackson. Many of you know Laura from her decades as a prolific writer with her late husband Guy, and their countless talks around New England about life in our mountains and from their influential books Wilderness Ethics and Backwoods Ethics, to Forest and Crag and Yankee Rock and Ice. The informal breakfast with Laura starts at 8 a.m. Vegetable gardening presentation April 18 Join Russ Norton, Agricultural Resources, Extension Educator at the Conway Library Conway, Monday,
April 18, from 6:30 to 8 p.m. for a fun, informational gardening presentation. Topics will include: location, soil, fertility, and pH. Additional topics include weed management, starting seeds, and planting time. This event is free. For more information contact UNH Cooperative Extension at 4473834. Jackson artists in show at Tin Mountain Several Jackson artists (Lori Badger, Anne Garland, Mary Howe, Melanie Levitt, and June McLeavey) are participating in the second annual Art Celebrates Place exhibition. This is a show of work by eight Mount Washington Valley artists, inspired by the Upper Saco Valley Land Trust’s Conservation Easements. It features performances of place-based music, poetry and storytelling at Tin Mountain Conservation Center at Bald Hill Road in Albany. The show will be on display until May 18. New arrival at The Carter Notch Inn Like many other inns and restaurants locally, the Carter Notch Inn is shut for a couple of weeks during mud season. However, this is not just about the weather – the owners, Dick and Sally are welcoming a new addition to the family! Dudley is an Old English Sheepdog puppy, a nephew to their dog, Henry. He was born on Feb. 7 and arrived at the Inn exactly two months later. They are currently teaching him his new role at the Inn, which will reopen at the end of April once he's mastered the customer care program. see next page

Following Atticus Congratulations to Tom Ryan of Jackson, whose forthcoming book, "Following Atticus" (due out in September from William Morrow), has been chosen for this fall's "One Book, One Valley," community reading program, sponsored by eleven Valley libraries and White Birch Books in North Conway. Tom is wellknown on the hiking websites for his many White Mountain hiking journeys in recent years with Atticus M. Finch, his stalwart miniature schnauzer. (They can often be seen walking the roads of Jackson.) Together they have made hundreds of mountain ascents, including several rounds of the forty-eight 4,000-footers in winter. Ryan's lyrical trip reports posted on www.viewsfromthetop.com and on his blog, "The Adventures of Tom & Atticus" (tomandatticus.blogspot. com) have earned them a large following. "Following Atticus: Forty-Eight High Peaks, One Little Dog, and an Extraordinary Friendship," is a beautifully written work. It's both a hiking book and a dog book, but it is also, as the jacket notes, "a story of love, loss, and the resilience of the human and animal spirit." The "One Book, One Valley" event will kick off with a book signing in September at White Birch. Over the following two months each library will host discussion groups on Ryan's book, and the program concludes in November with an audience-and-author discussion event. Ryan will use the event as a fundraiser for the Harvest Hills Animal Shelter and the Animal Rescue League of New Hampshire – North.

DILBERT

By Holiday Mathis small animals. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You’ll make a gesture of good will that could catch others off guard. It will take a while for the recipients of this kindness to understand completely what has transpired. When they finally do, they will be very grateful. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). It will seem as though the world is just waiting for your interaction. People will extend a hand to help you before you ask and will answer your phone calls on the first ring. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). There’s a reason for the spring in your step and a secret behind the sparkle in your eye -- one that you’re not likely to tell, even to your nearest and dearest. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You’ll be lucky twice today. The first time will be an accident, but it’s an accident you can re-create. Remember the steps you took that brought good fortune to you the first time, and take them again. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You are reticent to ask for guidance because you’re afraid it will obligate you. But don’t worry -- you don’t have to follow the advice you get. The only obligation you’ll have is to say thank you. TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (April 14). You see substantial change this year, and you quickly realize how to make the current state of things work in your favor. The next four weeks reinforce to you that you are a valued member of your team. June provides new motivation for a goal. August features a role reversal. You’ll do work that’s on the cutting edge. Cancer and Sagittarius people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 23, 14, 39, 2 and 30.
Get Fuzzy
ARIES (March 21-April 19). You have an unusual bag of tricks, and you’ll have the opportunity to show off one or two. This will impress your peers. If you can make them laugh, too, you’ll be doubly satisfied. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). People depend on you. You will enjoy this as long as you are satisfied that you can deliver what they need. If you can’t, you can avoid stress by quickly delegating the responsibility. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Your company will be requested. You’re a treat to be around, as you act on your whims and follow through on your impulses. Your spontaneity will not soon be forgotten. CANCER (June 22-July 22). What a loved one wants from you feels more like a dare than a request. And though you’re not certain you can pull it off, you’ll enjoy trying. Success depends on a combination of preparation and chutzpah. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Beware of a person who apparently knows everything. No one knows everything. A truly knowledgeable person will share judiciously and admit when he or she doesn’t know. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Where someone else sees a problem, you’ll see dollar signs. As you stretch your imagination in a financial direction, you’ll come up with hypothetical solutions with the potential to make you rich. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Like a cheerful animated version of yourself, you will whistle as you work. It will seem as though you are in harmony with all of nature, including birds, butterflies and

THE CONWAY DAILY SUN, Thursday, April 14, 2011— Page 21
Today is Thursday, April 14, the 104th day of 2011. There are 261 days left in the year. Today’s Highlight in History: On April 14, 1865, President Abraham Lincoln was shot and mortally wounded by John Wilkes Booth during a performance of “Our American Cousin” at Ford’s Theater in Washington; the president died nine hours later. On this date: In 1775, the first American society for the abolition of slavery was formed in Philadelphia. In 1828, the first edition of Noah Webster’s “American Dictionary of the English Language” was published. In 1910, President William Howard Taft became the first U.S. chief executive to throw the ceremonial first pitch at a baseball game as the Washington Senators beat the Philadelphia Athletics 3-0. In 1912, the British liner RMS Titanic collided with an iceberg in the North Atlantic and began sinking. In 1949, at the conclusion of the so-called “Wilhelmstrasse Trial,” 19 former Nazi Foreign Office officials were sentenced by an American tribunal in Nuremberg to prison terms ranging from four to 25 years. In 1956, Ampex Corp. demonstrated the first successful videotape recorder at the National Association of Radio and Television Broadcasters Convention in Chicago. In 1960, the musical “Bye Bye Birdie” opened on Broadway. In 1981, the first test flight of America’s first operational space shuttle, the Columbia, ended successfully with a landing at Edwards Air Force Base in California. In 1986, Americans got word of a U.S. air raid on Libya (because of the time difference, it was the early morning of April 15 where the attack occurred.) One year ago: The Eyjafjallajokul (ayyah-FYAH’-lah-yer-kuhl) volcano in Iceland erupted, sending out an ash plume that led most northern European countries to close their airspace between April 15 and 20, grounding about 10 million travelers worldwide. Today’s Birthdays: Actor Bradford Dillman is 81. Actor Jay Robinson is 81. Country singer Loretta Lynn is 76. Actress Julie Christie is 71. Retired MLB All-Star Pete Rose is 70. Rock musician Ritchie Blackmore is 66. Actor John Shea is 62. Actor-race car driver Brian Forster is 51. Actor Brad Garrett is 51. Actor Robert Carlyle is 50. Actor Robert Clendenin is 47. Actress Catherine Dent is 46. Actor Lloyd Owen is 45. Retired MLB All-Star Greg Maddux is 45. Rock musician Barrett Martin is 44. Actor Anthony Michael Hall is 43. Actor Adrien Brody is 38. Actress Sarah Michelle Gellar is 34. Actor-producer Rob McElhenney is 34. Actress Vivien Cardone is 18. Actress Abigail Breslin is 15.

Help Wanted by Abigail Van Buren
QUARRELSOME COUPLE TAKE HOSTILITY TO NEW HEIGHTS
DEAR ABBY: We have been friends with “The Bickersons” for quite some time. They never have a kind word to say to each other. Mr. B. now has a terminal illness, and you would think they’d be kinder to each other at a time like this. On the contrary, their fights are more groundless and vicious than ever. It is becoming increasingly difficult to be around them. This is when they need friends more than ever, but they’re driving everyone away! What can we do? -- LOVE IS ALL WE NEED DEAR LOVE: While you might imagine that when a spouse has a terminal illness it would bring the couple closer together, that is not always the case. Mr. B. may be frightened, angry, in pain and taking it out on his wife. Mrs. B. may be furious at her husband for being sick and dependent, and requiring her to have gone from being a wife to a caregiver. Also, they both may be settling old scores. Because it’s painful to watch what’s going on but you want to be supportive, consider socializing with them separately. They may appreciate the time they get to spend away from each other. DEAR ABBY: When does dieting become rude? I have always enjoyed inviting friends and family over for dinner. But lately it seems everyone is on some kind of diet and “can’t eat that.” I fix healthy meals -- free of fats, sugars and salt. If someone has a dietary restriction or wants to pass on dessert, I am fine with that, of course. I don’t like it, though, when my carefully prepared meals turn into leftovers or get thrown away off someone’s plate. Why would anyone accept a dinner invitation and then
turn into a picky guest? Would eating an average serving of a good meal once a week blow someone’s diet? -- LOST THE JOY OF COOKING DEAR LOST THE JOY: I’ll answer your questions in reverse order. Eating an “average serving of a good meal” once a week COULD blow someone’s diet, depending on the kind of diet the person is on. And the reason someone who is on a severely restricted diet would accept a dinner invitation on a weekly basis might be because he or she wants to see you, wants to see some of the other guests or doesn’t want to be left out. But for a conclusive answer, you need to query the dieter. DEAR ABBY: My mother and I are very close, and I love her very much, but I have a problem. Mom goes on every single field trip with my class. There have even been times when she was the only parent in attendance. The teachers are grateful for her, but it’s becoming embarrassing. I’m a freshman in a private high school, and I want to start doing things more independently. What’s the best way to tell Mom before my next trip that I prefer she not go without hurting her feelings? -- I’M A BIG GIRL NOW DEAR BIG GIRL: Talk to your mother at a time when you are both calm. She needs to understand that her hovering is making you self-conscious when you need some independence. However, keep in mind that she may be the only parent who is volunteering and has the time to assist in the field trips -- which is why the teachers are grateful. What I’m trying to convey is how important it is for you and your mother to communicate honestly with each other.

Nola “Mary” Weeks, 79, of Suissevale Avenue in Moultonborough, died at her home April 10, 2011. Born in D’Escousse, Nova Scotia, Canada on Oct. 8, 1931, the daughter of Henry J. and Blaine E. [Cordeau] Landry. She moved to East Boston at the age of eighteen and resided in the East Boston area before moving to Redondo Beach, CA. She has been a resident of Moultonborough since 1982. She worked for United Airlines, in the cleaning department, for more than 10 years, until her retirement. She loved her family and friends and enjoyed the beach, clam digging, cooking, fishing and ice skating. She was predeceased by her husband Elmer E. Weeks, who died in January of 2006, and a grandchild, Shawnee and her parents. She is survived by her children, Paul Weeks and wife, Lynn, of Gar-
denia, Calif., Elaine Mueller and husband, Jim, and Michael Weeks and wife, Becky, both of Moultonborough, Thomas Weeks and wife, Jill, of Redondo, Calif., Donald Weeks and wife, Tamara, of Tuftonborugh; 13 grandchildren; five great grandchildren; sister, Patricia Landry, of Canada; numerous nieces, nephews, uncle, aunts, cousins and in laws.

Volunteers needed for water quality monitoring program, training April 16 EFFINGHAM — Green Mountain Conservation Group will host a volunteer training for its water quality monitoring program on Saturday, April 16, from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. at Huntress House in Effingham. All are welcome to participate in this handson community service program that trains volunteers to collect data on the water quality of local rivers and streams. 2011 will mark the 10th year of water quality monitoring and thus a sufficient amount of data to establish baseline water quality in the Ossipee Watershed. Green Mountain Conservation Group’s partners and consultants will then be able to identify water quality trends by comparing future data against that 10-year
baseline. In the field, volunteers test for temperature, pH, dissolved oxygen, conductivity, and turbidity one morning every other week before 9 a.m. through mid-October. Two water samples taken at that time are later sent to the University of New Hampshire and analyzed for 13 more parameters including cations, anions, and nutrients. Volunteers are needed for river sites in Effingham, Freedom, Madison, Ossipee, Sandwich and Tamworth. No experience is necessary. If you are interested in adopting a stream site, contact Green Mountain Conservation Group at 539-1859 or gmcgnh@ roadrunner.com.
