BARTLETT — Josiah Bartlett Elementary School, the first school in the Granite State to offer full-day kindergarten over two decades ago, will once again be offer-
ing an all-day program this fall; it’s just a matter of whether there will be one or two teachers. With enrollment continuing to decline, the Bartlett School Board faces the difficult decision of maintaining two classrooms with two teachers and a shared

TAMWORTH — A minor fender bender involving a police officer caused Tamworth selectmen to rethink their new drug and alcohol policy for employees. The policy would require employees to be drug and alcohol tested if they are involved in traffic accidents that occur during working hours, result in a human fatality or personal injury, require an accident report, lead to a moving violation, towing of either vehicle and near misses that have caused serious injury or property damage. For weeks, police chief Dan Poirier and his officers had been urging the selectmen to reconsider the policy. The chief said it’s unnecessary and would place a burden on his department of see POLICY page 8

Stylishly hide a gun (NY Times) — Woolrich, a 182-year-old clothing company, describes its new chino pants as an elegant and sturdy fashion statement, with a clean profile and fabric that provides comfort and flexibility. And they are great for hiding a handgun. The company has added a second pocket behind the traditional front pocket for a weapon. Or, for those who prefer to pack their gun in a holster, it can be tucked inside the stretchable waistband. The back pockets are also designed to help hide accessories, like a knife and a flashlight. The chinos, which cost $65, are not for commandos, but rather, the company says, for the fashion-aware gun owner. And Woolrich has competition. Several clothing companies are following suit, building businesses around the sharp rise in people with permits to carry concealed weapons. Their ranks swelled to around seven million last year from five million in 2008, partly because of changes to state laws on concealed handguns. Shawn Thompson, 35, who works at an auto dealership in eastern Kentucky, bought two shirts last month from the Woolrich Elite Concealed Carry line. Both, he wrote on his blog, are a step up from more rugged gear. Carriers of concealed guns say the new options are a departure from the law enforcement and military look, known as “tactical,” long favored by gun owners.

Engineer arrested in BP oil spill case
––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– WORLD/NATION–––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––
HOUSTON (NY Times) — Federal prosecutors announced on Tuesday that they have filed the first criminal charges related to the BP oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico, accusing a former company engineer of destroying evidence by deleting text messages documenting the amount of oil that was leaking from the stricken well. Federal authorities arrested the engineer, Kurt Mix of Katy, Tex., who was charged with two counts of obstruction of
justice in a complaint filed in the Eastern District of Louisiana and unsealed on Tuesday. Officials suggested that there may be more prosecutions related to the April 20, 2010, explosion of the Deepwater Horizon drilling rig. The accident killed 11 workers and spilled millions of barrels of oil into the ocean over a period of months. The long-term effects of the spill on the environment are still being assessed.

Construction company admits fraud scheme (NY Times) — The giant construction company that worked on the Sept. 11 Memorial and Citi Field projects has admitted to a massive fraud scheme and agreed to pay $50 million in fines and restitution in a deal to avoid criminal charges for overbilling on scores of public and private projects, according to federal court documents unsealed on Tuesday. The company, which changed its name from Bovis Lend Lease to Lend Lease after a fatal fire during
its demolition of the Deutsche Bank building, will not be prosecuted criminally as a result of the agreement with federal prosecutors in Brooklyn, who say it is the largest construction fraud settlement ever in New York City. The man who led the company until the investigation was disclosed in 2009 and was one of the most prominent construction executives in the city, pleaded guilty to fraud charges on Tuesday in United States District Court in Brooklyn.

Former Edwards aide testifies about effort to hide affair GREENSBORO, N.C. (NY Times) — The star prosecution witness in the corruption trial of former Senator John Edwards on Tuesday testified about elaborate efforts by Edwards to try to conceal an extramarital affair from his family, his campaign staff and report In his second day on the stand, the witness, Andrew Young, a former campaign staff member, said that he and Edwards had brainstormed about who might provide the necessary money to support Rielle Hunter, Edwards’ mistress, after Edwards’ wife learned of the affair and demanded that Hunter be dismissed from her job as a campaign videographer. Young said he and Edwards knew they would have to come up with a lot of money — and for an extended period of time — given Hunter’s fondness for expensive items. “This was going to be a long-term problem, and Miss Hunter had good taste,” Young said.

But criminal prosecution is a slap to the company, which has tried to portray itself as doing everything it could to make amends for the tragedy. If criminal charges are eventually brought against the company itself, they carry the possibility of suspension or exclusion from government contracts.

Student teachers to learn by watching themselves on video BY SARAH PALERMO THE CONCORD MONITOR
“My friend, you need to sit on your carpet now.” The student teacher’s voice was sing-song cheerful, but she directed her preschool charge to right where his bottom needed to be. “My friends,” she continued, addressing the group. “My friends,” she said again a few minutes later. The student-teacher was a junior in the teacher preparation class at Concord Regional Technical Center. Saying the same phrase over and over again is something her own teacher will note and remind her not to do. The reminder might sink in, but it might not. It sank in for Alicia Brown, a senior in the program, after she got the chance to watch herself on video teaching a lesson. She noticed she too said the same phrase over and over to her toddler charges. “It gets repetitive, and the kids stop hearing you,” Brown said. “It’s one of those stupid mistakes I won’t make anymore.” Next year, all of the students in the program will have the chance to watch themselves on tape, after the center installs $16,000 worth of video and audio equipment in corners around the preschool classroom. “There’s only so much you can capture with words. When the students see themselves, it’s so much more powerful. You notice all the little things,” said teacher Val Flanders. If all goes according to plan, Flanders will be able to give each of her 65 students a DVD at the end of the year, showing them teaching lessons in September, and documenting their growth and improvement throughout the year.
The cameras are also an accommodation to budget cuts from last year, when the program lost a full-time teacher. Flanders and the other teacher would split the high school students into two groups. Her group would be in the traditional classroom for two weeks while the other worked with the toddlers, observed by the other teacher, then the groups would switch. The students still move back and forth, but Flanders is the only teacher now. Preschool teacher Jen StrongRain supervises and helps evaluate, but Flanders works with half the older kids, gives them an assignment, then hustles across the hall to the preschool to observe the group that is student-teaching that week. “It’s been an adjustment. You do miss some things, pieces of their growth,” she said. The videos will let her see every minute of teaching and write more thorough and accurate reviews, she said. The money for the cameras, and some work on the HVAC system, new computers and furniture for the center’s graphic arts program and equipment for some of the other classes, will come from a fund established by some of the tuition students from other high schools pay to attend the Concord center. The fund has a balance of $470,000 this year, and the Concord School Board approved the plans to spend about $190,000 this summer. The changes are a step toward a philosophical overhaul of the center, said director Steve Rothenberg. “We want it to not look like a school, but an industry training center,” he said. “You don’t walk into an auto dealership training room and have traditional high school desks. We want it to be all on par with the industry.”

McLaughlin assertion on Obama is racism To the editor: Tom McLaughlin’s assertion, in his column on April 19, that President Obama is “stupid” and likely made it into Harvard Law School on the strength of affirmative action, is pure and simple racism. Mediocre students do not get into Harvard Law school, period. Only the best and brightest of those who do make it become president of the Harvard Law Review, as Obama did, or go on to teach at a major law school, as Obama also did. American presidents, whatever their party, may have other flaws, but none of them qualifies as unintelligent. The same cannot be said of all small-town newspaper columnists. The president and his administration have never suggested — as Mr. McLaughlin purports — that invoking the “Buffet Rule” that the very wealthiest Americans should pay the same tax rates as average Americans — would alone solve our problems of federal deficit and debt. The highly compressed quotation Mr. McLaughlin cites from the president
(assuming he has done so accurately) actually makes this clear: “Warren Buffet’s secretary shouldn’t pay a [higher] tax rate than Warren Buffett ... And that basic principle of fairness, if applied to our tax code, could raise enough money [to] stabilize our debt and deficits for the next decade … This is not politics; this is math.” Note the words “if applied to our tax code.” The context, here, and in numerous other statements President Obama has made on the subject, is that the basic principle of fairness inherent in the “Buffet Rule” — if applied to the entire body of the thousands of pages of the IRS tax code, meaning the elimination or reduction of many special exemptions for affluent individuals and corporations — would indeed have a dramatic effect on deficits and debt. The opponents of reforming our tax code to make it fairer across the board would rather demean the president than acknowledge this simple truth. Robert Gillette Ossipee

The Creative Monopoly As a young man, Peter Thiel competed to get into Stanford. Then he competed to get into Stanford Law School. Then he competed to become a clerk for a federal judge. Thiel won all those competitions. But then he competed to get a Supreme Court clerkship. Thiel lost that one. So instead of being a clerk, he went out and founded PayPal. Then he became an early investor in Facebook and many other celebrated technology firms. Somebody later asked him. “So, aren’t you glad you didn’t get that Supreme Court clerkship?” The question got Thiel thinking. His thoughts are now incorporated into a course he is teaching in the Stanford Computer Science Department. (A student named Blake Masters posted outstanding notes online, and Thiel has confirmed their accuracy.) One of his core points is that we tend to confuse capitalism with competition. We tend to think that whoever competes best comes out ahead. In the race to be more competitive, we sometimes confuse what is hard with what is valuable. The intensity of competition becomes a proxy for value. In fact, Thiel argues, we often shouldn’t seek to be really good competitors. We should seek to be really good monopolists. Instead of being slightly better than everybody else in a crowded and established field, it’s often more valuable to create a new market and totally dominate it. The profit margins are much bigger, and the value to society is often bigger, too. Now to be clear: When Thiel is talking about a “monopoly,” he isn’t talking about the illegal eliminateyour-rivals kind. He’s talking about doing something so creative that you establish a distinct market, niche and identity. You’ve established a creative monopoly and everybody has to come to you if they want that service, at least for a time. His lecture points to a provocative possibility: that the competitive spirit capitalism engenders can sometimes inhibit the creativity it requires. Think about the traits that creative people possess. Creative people don’t follow the crowds; they seek out the blank spots on the map. Creative people wander through faraway and forgotten traditions and then integrate marginal perspectives back to the mainstream. Instead of being fastest around the tracks everybody knows, creative people move adaptively through wildernesses nobody knows. Now think about the competitive environment that confronts the most fortunate people today and how it undermines those mind-sets. First, students have to jump through ever-more demanding, preassigned academic hoops. Instead of developing a passion for one subject,
they’re rewarded for becoming professional students, getting great grades across all subjects, regardless of their intrinsic interests. Instead of wandering across strange domains, they have to prudentially apportion their time, making productive use of each hour. Then they move into a ranking system in which the most competitive college, program and employment opportunity is deemed to be the best. There is a status funnel pointing to the most competitive colleges and banks and companies, regardless of their appropriateness. Then they move into businesses in which the main point is to beat the competition, in which the competitive juices take control and gradually obliterate other goals. I see this in politics all the time. Candidates enter politics wanting to be authentic and change things. But once the candidates enter the campaign, they stop focusing on how to be change-agents. They and their staff spend all their time focusing on beating the other guy. They hone the skills of one-upsmanship. They get engulfed in a tit-for-tat competition to win the news cycle. Instead of being new and authentic, they become artificial mirror opposites of their opponents. Instead of providing the value voters want — change — they become canned tacticians, hoping to eke out a slight win over the other side. Competition has trumped valuecreation. In this and other ways, the competitive arena undermines innovation. You know somebody has been sucked into the competitive myopia when they start using sports or war metaphors. Sports and war are competitive enterprises. If somebody hits three home runs against you in the top of the inning, your job is to go hit four home runs in the bottom of the inning. But business, politics, intellectual life and most other realms are not like that. In most realms, if somebody hits three home runs against you in one inning, you have the option of picking up your equipment and inventing a different game. You don’t have to compete; you can invent. We live in a culture that nurtures competitive skills. And they are necessary: discipline, rigor and reliability. But it’s probably a good idea to try to supplement them with the skills of the creative monopolist: alertness, independence and the ability to reclaim forgotten traditions. Everybody worries about American competitiveness. That may be the wrong problem. The future of the country will probably be determined by how well Americans can succeed at being monopolists.

remain because they believe it best meets the educational needs of the students. Voci is projecting 18 students for kindergarten next year, but won’t get concrete figures until registration April 30-May 1 is complete. The school board will wait to get final numbers before making its decision on staffing for next year. That decision could come as early as its next meeting, set for May 1 at 6 p.m. in the school library. Voci is proud of what’s happening inside his building and believes the kindergarten program is first rate. “Full day, we were the first community in the state to go that way,” Voci said. “Everyone is kind of now hitching onto our wagon. We get calls all the time from people all over the state wanting to know how we do things here, what our secrets are. “I look at the second half of the school year as a gift for our kindergartners,” he added. “That’s the difference between full and half-day K.” Voci pointed out that 65 percent of the K-8 schools in New Hampshire did not make their average yearly progress (AYP) on the annual NECAP tests. Bartlett not only met AYP, but did it with flying colors. “We had 96 percent (of the school’s students),” he said. “We made it; it’s a tough nut to crack. It starts in the K with the amount of instruction and caring we provide.” Voci brought staff to the April 3 meeting. “If we have one or two teachers,” he said, “I thought it would be more beneficial to have the professionals here to be part of the discussion. We struggled with one or two last year and we’ll struggle with one or two again. I can tell you the amount of growth these students have made wouldn’t have been as great if it were just one teacher.” Kindergarten teachers Patricia Donnelly and Bev Tremblay explained of the 18 students currently attending the program, four have to have their own Individual Education Programs (IEPs); one has special medical issues; six diid not attend preschool prior to kindergarten; and one is an English is a Second Language (ESL) student from Bulgaria. The 2012-13 student population will include a number of the same special needs. “We know the economy is down so a lot of families are not sending their children to preschool,” Tremblay said. “This year we’ve seen a slow jump without the preschool skills. Without having two classes we would not have managed.”

“Full day, we were the first community in the state to go that way,” Voci said. “Everyone is kind of now hitching onto our wagon. We get calls all the time from people all over the state wanting to know how we do things here, what our secrets are.” “In my 17 years I’ve never seen so few kids without preschool,” Paula Jolin, an instructional aide for the kindergarten said. “The kids get dropped off (on the first day of school) and it’s a huge, huge step for them,” Voci added. “Kindergarten is a different ball game than when I was in school — we’re teaching kids. When I said give them the NWEA (Northwest Evaluation Association tests), I had people coming into my office saying I was out of my mind and now they’re sold on them.” “I was one of those,” Donnelly said, smiling, “I have to eat crow.” School library media specialist Janice Mudgett agreed two classes were needed this year. “If there had been just one single class it would have been very challenging for the Unified Arts,” she said. Mudgett recalled 25 years earlier when her own son was to start kindergarten and there was discussion between one or two teachers. “We had a group right on the cusp,” she said and added she was so glad the board went with two classes. “I knew my son was an average student and he would have fallen through the cracks if there was just one teacher. Two classrooms at that point make a huge difference.” Two parents who were on hand also would like to see the current format continue. Resident Lisa Miller praised Voci and his staff for making the kindergarten program such a success. She currently has a child in kindergarten and another will attend next year. “There are 11 kids in Mrs. Donnelly’s class and I think that’s too big,” she said. “I don’t think one teacher could have done it with 22 kids and no help. I understand that money is an issue, but the bottom line is there have always been two teachers and this shouldn’t be about money; it should be about the kids. All I ask is that when you make decisions, really consider the kids.”

three officers. But Poirier said he had no problem with testing employees in cases where the employee was at fault, there was death or serious injury, and serious damage to the vehicle. “When it’s obvious there’s minor damage, nothing disabling and the individual is not at fault, to put him through the process of being drug tested doesn’t make sense to me,” said Poirier who also stressed it’s the investigating officer’s job to determine if anyone involved with an accident is impaired. Fire ward David Bowles said the fire department’s proposed policy echoes Poirier’s concerns. Firefighters are subject to policies from the fire wards and not selectmen. “It’s the things (accidents) that don’t amount to anything that we shouldn’t be running around and spending taxpayers’ money on,” said Bowles. On Thursday, Poirier illustrated his point by sharing a story about officer Dana Littlefield. A few weeks ago, Littlefield, who was driving on Route 16, was T-boned by another vehicle that was exiting Route 41. The other driver admitted he was not paying attention and was actually reading a letter when he hit Littlefield’s cruiser. Because of the policy, Poirier had to take Littlefield to Huggins Hospital in Wolfeboro for a drug test even though Littlefield wasn’t at fault. They had to wait at the hospital for a few hours. Littlefield said people in the community heard about the incident by listening to their scanners. Littlefield said he felt uncomfortable sitting at the hospital while in uniform as the chief made arrangements to have him tested. “The rumor mill started and I got a bunch of phone calls after I got out of the hospital,” said Littlefield. “It’s an embarrassment to have to deal with it.” Selectmen’s chair Bob Abraham said the policy was designed to protect the town from liability and unnecessary workers’ compensation claims. Abraham said the current policy would sometimes lead to embarrassing situations like the one Littlefield experienced. “Small town people are going to know anyway,” said Abraham. Poirier was also concerned about the lag time between when the employee is tested and when the results come back. Poirier doesn’t want his employees to return to duty until he’s sure they’re clean. In addition, Poirier said the issue of whether someone is impaired from their prescribed medications “opens another can of worms.” see next page

“I’d like to welcome back both Syndi and Kelley,” McLauchlan said and then took a moment to publicly thank Randy Davison, who came up short in his reelection bid, for his six years of service to the board. “I want to thank Randy for his many years. We appreciate his efforts and his passion and we hope to see him at future meetings.” Murphy, who previously held a seat until she quit mid-term in 2010, was the top vote recipient April 10 with 772 votes. White was second with 719 votes while Davison, the longest serving member of the board at the time, finished third with 617 votes. He was followed by Bill Masters, 344, and Ben Kane, 316. Superintendent Carl Nelson started the meeting by asking for nominations for the board chair. White nominated McLauchlan and board member Lynne Brydon seconded the nomination. McLauchlan was elected 5-0-1 (she abstained from the vote and board member Dick Klement was unable to attend the meeting). As chair, McLauchlan then asked for nominations for vice chairman, a position Klement had held for the previous two years. Brydon nominated White and the nomination was seconded by John Skelton, while Rick Breton nominated and McLauchlan seconded Klement for the position. “What do we do when we have two names,” McLauchlan asked. Nelson explained the board votes on both names and the one with the most votes gets the post. Brydon, Skelton and McLauchlan voted for White, who abstained from the vote, while Breton and Murphy voted

Perley said with a grin. “Vicki, we know you’ve done a great job and will continue to do a great job.” Harlow was the lone name brought forward by her colleagues and was unanimously selected during the board’s reorganization meeting in the library at the Josiah Bartlett Elementary School. School superintendent Carl Nelson chaired the beginning of the meeting and handed the board members their first task, nominating and selecting a chairman for the following year. Member Nancy Kelelmen nominated Harlow, and fellow member Dan Perley seconded the nomination. Rob Clark, Kelemen, Perley and Mike Murphy voted Harlow to the post. Harlow said she enjoys serving the community. This will mark her 12th consecutive year as board chairman. “I appreciate the confidence the board has in me,” Harlow said April 3 as she accepted another term as chair of the board and from preceding page
Sgt. Penny Colby said the policy seemed arbitrary. “That would be like me, as a police officer, showing up to an accident (involving a selectman) and saying, ‘That’s it, you’re getting a test,’” said Colby. “I have no basis other than you had an accident so I’m going to pack you up, put you in a cruiser and tell you, you have to take a test.” She also said officers already have to tell the chief about minor damage to their cruisers. Abraham eventually decided he
for Klement. White won the position and then took her place at the head of the table next to McLauchlan. Board members are now working out what committees they would like to serve on for the upcoming year. “I’d like to get feedback from you and go through what people are interested in and then I’ll make assignments,” McLauchlan said. “I’d like to review the list of committees with Carl to see if there are any that are no longer in place.” Breton suggested the facilities and transportation committee could be lumped into one single committee because they require Jim Hill, director of administrative services for SAU 9, to attend both meetings. The board appeared receptive to that idea. “We’ll try to consolidate as many committees as possible,” Nelson replied. “There may be one or two that we can consolidate. Some committees, like the calendar and the New Hampshire School Boards’ Association, meet just once a year and you need them.” “What tends to happen,” McLauchlan added, “is you have eight or nine committee assignments each and that can be a little overwhelming. If there are some (committees) no longer needed, let’s eliminate them.” The board unanimously agreed to continue its current meeting schedule of the second and fourth Mondays of each month in the Professional Development Center at the Kennett Middle School at 6:30 p.m. Members also agreed the chair should continue to be allowed to vote on all matters; the votes will continue to be recorded with those in the minority being listed by name; and the chair and vice chair will be the ones to review and sign the manifests. took over running the meeting. Last year Harlow ran successfully for a seventh three-year term on the school board. “I (ran) primarily because I have many years of experience as a board member and because I want to continue to work for the children in this District,” she said. “I believe in community service and I like to keep busy. The work is enjoyable.” Harlow, back in control of the meeting, continued the reorganization process. Next up was the vice chairman position. Kelemen, who has held it for the prior year, was again elected. Clark nominated her and Murphy offered a second. The board agreed to continue its meeting schedule again, convening the first Tuesday of each month at 6 p.m. in the school library. Members also agreed to allow the chairman to vote on all matters, not just to break a tie. The board agreed that Clark and Harlow will continue to review and sign the school manifests. would redraft the policy. Abraham’s goal is to have all employees to operate under the same policy — including firefighters. “We’ll revise this and see if it’s something we can all agree on,” said Abraham. For many years, Conway Police Department has operated under a policy that’s similar to the one the Tamworth selectmen had adopted. Lt. Chris Perley says such a policy protects the department from liability. “We’ve found no constitutional conflicts between our policy and its application,” said Perley.

INVESTMENTS FOR THE REST OF US
So now what?
Online website names Jackson Ski Touring best cross-country ski area in United States BY TOM EASTMAN
BY DAVID F. BROCHU, CFP
THE CONWAY DAILY SUN
So now what? I am often asked this question, or one like it, at my presentations. Shocked and dismayed after listening to me outline the “Decline of Western Civilization” as we know it, the first and most logical question would be: “What do we do about it?” Unfortunately, there’s no easy answer. There are, however, steps a traveler through the Wonderland of Modern Finance can take. Step One: Get Over It Yes, you have been lied to. Our government is in the process of reneging on promises we had thought were our birthright. And sure enough, your tax dollars were taken from you and given to the David F. Brochu uber-rich, who damn near brought the whole system down (history will show that they did; it just hasn’t happened yet). Unless one of us is planning on leading a revolution, however, it’s simply the way it is and the sooner we accept it, the sooner we can move on. Step Two: Do You Really Need All The Money Anyway? Why are you investing in the first place? Are you short of your goals for retirement, college, or perhaps a second home, yet within reasonable striking distance? If yes, then you have a reason to take on some risk. If not, don’t bother. If you need a million to retire in five years; all that you’ve put away is $100,000, and you make $50,000, forget it. Stop kidding yourself and stop listening to people who tell you that you can pull it off — they’re just trying to sell you something. If all you have is a $100,000 to fund a million dollar goal, the last thing you should do is risk it. I’ve got a better idea; if retirement at 65 isn’t possible, push it to 70. If 70 doesn’t work perhaps part-time retirement is in the cards. What’s important is to preserve what money you have trying to achieve a goal that you may never achieve. Right-size your goals and invest accordingly. For those with enough money to live comfortably for the rest of their lives, why take any risk at all? Unless you have so much money that you don’t worry about losing a large portion of it, you should have long ago segregated the funds that guarantee your lifestyle to the end of your days, from those you are willing to risk. Step Three: Stop Investing In Mutual Funds Assuming that you have no other choice (401(k) plans and the like use mutual funds), try to avoid mutual funds. Mutual funds have devolved to mediocrity. Because most funds are restricted (by their size) to investments with a large float (number of shares traded), you find tremendous overlap amongst 80 percent of them. These limitations have destroyed the value that funds used to have. Correlation, when referring to investments, is defined by how much the movement of one security equals, or correlates, to another security.
JACKSON — Jackson Ski Touring Foundation has been rated the top cross-country ski area in the United States by the online website, America’s Best Online. The independent website (www. americasbestonline.com/ crossski.html) named 10 areas across the U.S. and rated Jackson as the best, according to Jackson Ski Touring Foundation executive director Thom Perkins. Each winter the nonprofit Jackson Ski Touring Foundation provides skiing and snowshoe trails as well as youth and Jackson Ski Touring Foundation maintains 150 kilometers of cross-country ski and snowshoe trails.

Correlations have regressed to one amongst many domestic stocks. Simply put; stocks all move together. When you add in the forced diversification of the mutual fund, you end up with market performance with an added fee. Not a good plan. Step Four: Make Inflation Your Friend Forget what you have heard and read about inflation being tame. The things we consume everyday — food, fuel, healthcare, toilet paper, you name it — are increasing in price. I know that the “official” inflation rate is around 2 percent. Inflation in constant dollars (dollars that are not depreciating) may be 2 percent, however, when you consider the amount of goods and services we import combined with the planned weakness in the dollar, it’s reasonable to expect that deprecating dollars will keep inflation alive for years to come. Inflation is good for hard assets; land, timber, food, fuel, real estate (be careful with this one; it may be awhile yet) and gold. Invest in the best companies in these areas or invest directly if you can. A word about gold. I am frequently asked if gold is a good investment at these lofty levels. Gold is being used as an alternative cur-
rency, one that doesn’t change and can’t be debased by creating more of it. As long as you believe central banks will continue to print money, then gold is a good investment. How much should you own? That depends on the degree of faith you have in your central bank. Ten to twenty percent of your portfolio is not unreasonable. Step Five: Don’t Overpay For Anything Between 1982-2000, a bad purchase decision could be erased simply by waiting; overpay, then just wait awhile and the price will come back. Not so any more. Pay too much today and you may never get your money back, never mind a gain. It’s best to understand what makes an investment valuable; at what price that value can be realized, and then be patient. If you can’t get the price you want then look for another investment. Don’t chase stocks. Step Six: Worry More About NOT Losing Money Than Trying To Make It Warren Buffet is famous for saying that the first rule of investing is “don’t lose money,” and the second rule is to “never forget the first one.” That statement pretty much sums it up. If you don’t lose money, you will eventually make money. Disregard the day-to-day movements of the mar-
kets. Increasingly, the major exchanges have nothing to do with our reality. A very large percentage of the daily trades are made for and between professional traders. On any given day, or on most days, what you see happening in the stock market are the machinations of professional traders. Forget about all the noise. Understand why you are investing. Educate yourself on what you should invest in. Plan carefully and realistically to achieve your goals. Do your research and be patient; let the market come to you. And do your best to not lose money. Not really all that different from what you should have been doing for the last 40 years, except now you really have to do it; the markets won’t be bailing you out. David F. Brochu, CFP, is president and CEO of KLEOSSUM advisers, an independent investment advisory firm for individuals and group retirement plans, residing in Tech Village in Conway.

Jackson has one of the nation’s three international fully-certified competition facilities and annually hosts major competitions including the White Mountain Classic 30k Marathon. “It is nice to receive acknowledgement of what the village of Jackson has to offer winter recreation,” said Perkins. “Our staff and board work very hard to produce a world-class experience for the folks in the village and guests who come here each winter. The culture of Jackson is to make fun of winter. We are very pleased to receive this recognition.” Perkins has been the executive director of the non-profit Jackson Ski Touring Foundation since 1976 and has led the touring center from a vast, untamed trail system to one of the finest cross-country destinations in the United States.

The foundation maintains 150 kilometers of cross-country ski and snowshoe trails.

The last “What’s The SCORE” article spoke to the resources of the local SCORE chapter in Mount Washington Valley. The next couple of articles will go into greater detail regarding those resources, the most important being the counselor. This article profiles those counselors. But first, let’s explain a couple of terms, counselor and/or mentor, that are used interchangeably. At first blush they seem to have the same meaning. It was not too long ago that a client would go onto a SCORE website and request counseling. SCORE volunteers were considered counselors. Today, one requests mentoring on the website. The reason is that the SCORE Association recently rebranded itself and adopted a concept called Customer Relationship Management (CRM), a management tool that embraces mentoring. Let me use an example. Client A has a dream and wants to start a business, and requests a counselor from SCORE. One is assigned and after a couple of counseling sessions it is apparent that for various reasons starting a business is not a good idea and the client is advised accordingly. Client B also has a dream about starting a business. A counselor is assigned and is impressed with the client’s passion for this venture. The client has a strong business plan, a solid credit rating, collateral to invest, a good location for the business, etc. The counselor helps the client refine the business plan and obtain a commercial loan, and after nearly a year of planning, research and hard work (and, oh yes, mentoring), the business opens. Success story — well, maybe. It’s not over. Things have a way of going south if one is not careful. Along the way the counselor became a mentor, making suggestions, advising, answering questions, etc. This

How much is my case worth?
I hear this question often. Usually the question comes up in automobile accident cases, but it comes up in other civil cases as well. A client will come to meet with me and be concerned that, because of an accident, he (I’ll refer to the client as a male for purposes of this article) is paying medical bills, losing time from work and unable to pay monthly bills. Often times the client will speak with friends or family who advise him to sue, but tell him wildly contradictory figures as to what they think the case is worth. To top it all off, an insurance adjuster is calling and offering to pay several thousand dollars (that he sure could use) and just wants the client to sign a “simple release.” Any attorney who tells a client what a case is worth is being speculative at best. Ultimately, what a case is worth to a client depends on what that the client believes it is worth. Of course, an insurance company may not agree. When that happens, the client can elect to have a jury decide. An experienced attorney can help a client sort out the process, give insight into the client’s case, and vigorously advocate for the client. When I meet with a client, I always question in detail the particulars of the client’s case: (1) was the accident entirely the other driver’s fault; (2) what is the extent of the injuries; (3) are there any permanent injuries; (4) how has the accident affected daily activities (i.e. driving, sleeping, eating, working, etc.); (5) how much are the medicals bills; (6) is future treatment is required; (7) has there been

a loss of time from work; and (8) are there any particular laws that apply to the case? With the answers to these questions, I am usually able to provide a client with what I believe the case is worth based on past similar cases. However, I always emphasize that it is the client’s decision as to what to accept. If an insurance company Edward D. Alkalay offers what I believe to be a fair figure, I will tell the client. However, just because I believe the figure is fair, does not mean the client has to. The client can simply reject the offer and request that we continue on to a trial where a jury will decide the value of the case. Likewise, I may indicate that I believe that the insurance company is not being fair or that I believe the case is worth much more than what was offered and recommend going to trial. A client could simply tell me that despite my thoughts, he wants to settle at the figure offered. Bottom line — the decision whether or not to settle is always a client’s decision. If a client decides to go forward to a jury trial, what the case is worth will be left up to the jury. The jury will make its decision based upon the testimony of the client and other witnesses, and the other evidence presented. When a case goes to a jury, what the case is worth becomes much more uncertain. A jury’s award can range from incredibly high to absurdly low, or the jury may decide that the defendant was not at fault at all. Yes, it is riskier to go to a jury trial, but the potential reward is also higher. In conclusion, what a case is worth is a difficult question. It is worth one thing to a plaintiff. Another thing to an insurance company. And an entirely different thing to a jury. A good attorney can help you build your case, offer advice as to a case is worth based on past experience, and effectively guide you through the insurance and court process. However, whether to resolve a case through a settlement or to take a case to trial is entirely the client’s decision. Edward D.

David John Driscoll
David John Driscoll, of Carlisle, Mass., and Bartlett, passed away peacefully on April 21, 2012 at his home in Carlisle, Mass., with his family by his side. He was born on Dec. 8, 1945 in Lewiston, Maine to John and Ruth Driscoll. He spent his early years in Auburn and Dixfield, Maine and Cumberland, R.I. He graduated from Bates College with a major in French spending his junior year in Dijon, France. On May 11, 1968, three weeks after graduation, he married Jo-Ann (French) with whom he would have celebrated their 44th wedding anniversary in May. David made the most of his four years in the Army following graduation. During this time, he and Jo-Ann lived in Washington, D.C., Texas, Korea (in a one-room house), and finally Fukuoka, Japan where they enjoyed riding their motorcycle on the back roads of Kyushu. After the Army, he attended UMass Amherst receiving a Masters of Arts in Teaching degree, and then both he and Jo-Ann worked with GTE Sylvania Training Operations where they set up and ran training programs and lived in Algeria and Iran. They were evacuated from Iran during the revolution in 1979. For many years,, David worked as an IT trainer for Teradyne, Cullinet Software, Lotus, and Powersoft Corporation as well as being an independent consultant. During that time he traveled to Kuwait, Guam, Taiwan, Korea, Hong Kong, and throughout the U.S. delivering training classes. David was also an active volunteer – first at Household Good Recycling of Massachusetts and later for the Red Cross. When Hurricane Katrina hit, he felt compelled to help out and volunteered with Hands On Disaster Response (now All Hands Volunteers). He drove to Biloxi, Miss. to spend three weeks and ended up spending three months. This experience piqued a need to do more and, over the past seven years, he and Jo-Ann have volunteered with All Hands in Indonesia, the Philippines, Peru, Bangladesh, Haiti, and Japan as well as in Missouri and New York, digging mud out of houses, removing concrete debris, building schools, and doing whatever was necessary to help out after a disaster. After the 2010 Haitian earthquake, David used his knowledge of French and his logistics abilities to work with the University of Miami’s Project Medishare and help run the large tent hospital that acted as a trauma center for earthquake victims. He also worked with JP/HRO and All Hands with their proj-
ects in Haiti and with International Medial Relief where he helped provide security to the group as well as other logistics support. His wonderful sense of humor always helped no matter how difficult the situation. David loved the outdoors — kayaking the Royal River in Maine, lying in the hammock at Sabbathday Lake, hiking, backpacking, and cross-country skiing in the White Mountains. He coordinated numerous family hikes and kayak trips with the nieces and nephews and tried to instill a love of nature in the next generation. He loved to challenge them with a ski down the backside of Wildcat Mountain. If you’re up hiking on the West Side Trail, crawling through caves on the Six Husbands, staying at Crag Camp, or looking at the view from Hall’s Ledge, you might run into him. He’ll point out the sights and might even tell you a hiking story or two intermixed with his awesome dry wit. David believed in living his life to the fullest. His heart was always open to anyone in need. He rescued stray dogs from St. Martin and rescued stray people from Mt. Washington. His door was always open to travelers from other countries and he reveled in showing them around New England. He maintained contact with people all over the world, always willing to give support or just say hi. He touched many lives and left us too soon. David leaves his loving wife and right-hand man, Jo-Ann; his mother Ruth, of Auburn, Maine; his sister, Elaine, of Cumberland, R.I.; his sister, Susan, of Portsmouth; his sister, Cathy, of Clifton, Va. and New Gloucester, Maine; his brother, Tom, of Winthrop, Maine; his sister, Nancy, of Turner, Maine; his sister, Patricia, of Mount Vernon, Maine, and many nieces and nephews who meant so much to him. He also leaves behind his beloved dog, Lady, who will miss their walks through the cranberry bog and cross country skiing at Bear Notch. Some people endeavor to live a happy life, some to raise a loving family, others want to leave a legacy and still others want to change the world for the better. David accomplished all of these things in his own quiet way. At David’s request, no services will be held. Send notes and sign the guest book at www.deefuneralhome.com. In lieu of flowers, send donations to All Hands Volunteers (All Hands Volunteers, P.O. Box 546, Carlisle MA, 01741), and take a walk in the woods with your best friend. David will be there.

By Holiday Mathis SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You know enough to continue a project on your own, and yet you do what only the truly savvy would do: ask for more opinions and information. The more you learn the better your work will be. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You don’t usually need a lot of outside motivation, but occasionally it makes all the difference. This is one of those occasions. You’ll do your best when you’re with someone who inspires you. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Even though your to-do list is approximately a zillion items long, you’re able to approach things with a jovial, funloving mood. It takes a high level of emotional intelligence to maintain this stellar attitude. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You like getting feedback because you know it helps you improve in ways you couldn’t have seen on your own. Being able to accept feedback and use it constructively gives you an advantage over your competition. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You’ll be near someone you admire, and you’ll take notes, probably without realizing it. You’ll learn from this person’s mannerisms and approach to life, but mostly you’ll absorb the general essence of this person. TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (April 25). Enjoy all the fawning and presents you get today! Through the next six weeks, you’ll be recognized for your unique qualities and truly novel approach to relationships. You’ll bring zesty energy to your work and be noticed and promoted for this. Improvements in your health and fitness happen through June and July. Aries and Libra people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 15, 20, 5, 16 and 32.
Get Fuzzy
ARIES (March 21-April 19). Living large is a frame of mind, as well as a matter of economics. Adventures aren’t cheap, but you’ll continue on because you have a feeling that in the end, the experience will be worth the cost. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You are creative, and your whims will bring magic into your world. So dare to take a flight of fancy. You’ll wind up in a fascinating place because you went off on this tangent. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Let people know how you really feel. Be specific. Expressing yourself in euphemistic terms won’t communicate what you need from others. Exactness gets your needs met. CANCER (June 22-July 22). What you believe about life may be true, and it may not be true. Either way, those beliefs are essential to your daily actions, habits, behaviors and attitudes. Decide which beliefs are getting in your way. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You don’t always feel the need to take full credit for the marvelous outcomes you create. Sometimes you even give others more credit than they deserve in order to raise morale. This will be one of those times. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You’re slightly concerned about getting your work done in a timely manner, and friendly distractions abound. Don’t let your worries get the best of you or make you edgy. All will unfold perfectly when you relax. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You’ll have a vivid vision of what your life should be, taking into account your desires and inclinations. This may be the idealized version, but it’s certainly something to shoot for.

THE CONWAY DAILY SUN, Wednesday, April 25, 2012— Page 21
Today is Wednesday, April 25, the 116th day of 2012. There are 250 days left in the year. Today’s Highlight in History: On April 25, 1862, during the Civil War, a Union fleet commanded by Flag Officer David G. Farragut captured the city of New Orleans. On this date: In 1507, a world map produced by German cartographer Martin Waldseemueller contained the first recorded use of the term “America,” in honor of Italian navigator Amerigo Vespucci (vehs-POO’-chee). In 1792, highwayman Nicolas Jacques Pelletier became the first person under French law to be executed by the guillotine. In 1859, ground was broken for the Suez Canal. In 1898, the United States formally declared war on Spain. In 1901, New York Gov. Benjamin Barker Odell Jr. signed an automobile registration bill which imposed a 15 mph speed limit on highways. In 1915, during World War I, Allied soldiers invaded the Gallipoli (guh-LIHP’-uh-lee) Peninsula in an unsuccessful attempt to take the Ottoman Empire out of the war. In 1944, the United Negro College Fund was founded. In 1945, during World War II, U.S. and Soviet forces linked up on the Elbe (EL’-beh) River, a meeting that dramatized the collapse of Nazi Germany’s defenses. Delegates from some 50 countries met in San Francisco to organize the United Nations. In 1959, the St. Lawrence Seaway opened to shipping. In 1972, Polaroid Corp. introduced its SX-70 folding camera, which ejected self-developing photographs. Actor George Sanders was found dead in his hotel room near Barcelona, Spain; he was 65. In 1983, Soviet leader Yuri V. Andropov (ahnDROH’-pawf) invited Samantha Smith to visit his country after receiving a letter from the Manchester, Maine, schoolgirl. In 1992, Islamic forces in Afghanistan took control of most of the capital of Kabul following the collapse of the Communist government. One year ago: President Bashar Assad of Syria sent the military into the southern city of Daraa, where an anti-government uprising had begun the previous month. Today’s Birthdays: Movie director-writer Paul Mazursky is 82. Actor Al Pacino is 72. Ballroom dance judge Len Goodman (TV: “Dancing with the Stars”) is 68. Rock musician Stu Cook (Creedence Clearwater Revival) is 67. Singer Bjorn Ulvaeus (ABBA) is 67. Actress Talia Shire is 66. Actor Jeffrey DeMunn is 65. Rock musician Michael Brown (The Left Banke) is 63. Rock musician Steve Ferrone (Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers) is 62. Country singer-songwriter Rob Crosby is 58. Actor Hank Azaria is 48. Rock singer Andy Bell (Erasure) is 48. Rock musician Eric Avery is 47. Country musician Rory Feek is 47. TV personality Jane Clayson is 45. Actress Renee Zellweger is 43. Actress Gina Torres is 43. Actor Jason Lee is 42. Actor Jason Wiles is 42. Actress Emily Bergl is 37. Actress Marguerite Moreau is 35. Singer Jacob Underwood is 32. Actress Sara Paxton is 24. Actress Allisyn Ashley Arm is 16.

Help Wanted by Abigail Van Buren
DAUGHTER ASKS IF PHOTO ALBUM SHOULD COVER ALL OF DAD’S LIFE
DEAR ABBY: My father is turning 60 this year, and I want to make him a photo album with pictures from throughout his life. However, Dad is widowed and remarried, so I’m having a hard time deciding what to do with respect to my mother. They were married 25 years before she died, and they loved each other very much. They raised two children together, and she was an important part of his life. At the same time, I have a feeling that including pictures of Mom may upset my stepmother. While I am not close with her, I don’t want to intentionally hurt her feelings. What should I do? -- LAURA IN ST. LOUIS DEAR LAURA: You’re asking an intelligent question and I commend you for your sensitivity. If the photo album is intended to be a surprise for your father, consider talking to your stepmother about the idea. It will give you an indication of how such a gift would be perceived by her. DEAR ABBY: I’m 24 and love my parents. Mom confided to me that she has been seeing a high school flame behind my father’s back. She claims she loves this man and said she has slept with him, but she doesn’t want to leave the security my father provides for her. She swore me to secrecy about her affair. Meanwhile, my father has started talking to me about their marital problems. He doesn’t understand why Mother isn’t happy. I feel like I should tell him, but that would betray my mother. At the same time, not telling him what I know is betraying him. What should I do? -- CAUGHT IN THE MIDDLE DEAR CAUGHT IN THE MIDDLE: Your parents should not be confiding their marital difficulties to you. They should attempt to resolve them by communicating with each other -- preferably with the help of a licensed marriage counselor.
That your mother would turn you into a co-conspirator in her affair is despicable. Give her a deadline to level with your father or tell her that you will. He deserves to know the truth. DEAR ABBY: I have fallen in love with a very special woman. She happens to be my daughter-in-law’s mother. We are very happy together, but our children are extremely upset about this. My son and her daughter no longer speak to us at this point. I feel it’s my life and I shouldn’t live it for the kids, nor would I want them to live their lives for me. Is it wrong for me to be with her, or are the kids overreacting? -- IN LOVE IN KENTUCKY DEAR IN LOVE: The “kids” are overreacting, and they shouldn’t be trying to blackmail the two of you into doing what they prefer. It IS your life, and just as you wish your son and daughter-in-law every happiness, they should be doing the same for you. This situation is not as unusual as they think, and they should not be judging or punishing you, because you are doing nothing wrong. DEAR ABBY: I married “Darrel” six months ago. It bothers me that he wears a silver bracelet from a relationship that ended five years ago. He claims that if I were to wear a piece of jewelry from my first marriage, it wouldn’t bother him as it is “just jewelry.” How do you feel about this? -- BOTHERED IN DAYTONA BEACH DEAR BOTHERED: What I feel about this is not important; it’s how YOU feel. If your husband’s wearing the bracelet is a constant, irritating reminder that he was involved with someone else, he should remove it because it isn’t “just jewelry” to you. And your feelings should be more important to him than the bracelet, don’t cha think?

Eagles look to return to winning ways –––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– SPORTS ––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––
BY LLOYD JONES THE CONWAY DAILY SUN
CONWAY — After suffering its first loss of the season, the Kennett High softball team will look to start a new winning streak when it hosts Bishop Brady today (4 p.m.). The Eagles, who were rained out Monday at Berlin (the game has been rescheduled for May 10), are currently 5-1 on the season in Division II while the Giants come to Redstone sporting a record of 3-3 (they were rained out at Kingswood also on Monday). Kennett saw its five-game win streak to come to a halt Friday in Portsmouth. The Clippers (2-2) , who unveiled their new field — Alumni-Wentworth Field — rode strong pitching and timely hitting to a 4-0 victory. Portsmouth’s Katie Sullivan hit a two-run home run in the first inning and the Clippers added another run in the frame along with one
more in the fifth as insurance on their way to the win. Talented pitcher Mariah Crisp struck out eight over five innings and Sullivan threw the final two frames scattering two hits while striking out three Eagles. The best chance for Kennett came in the first inning, when it had runners at first and second with one out, but Crisp avoided any damage with back-toback strikeouts to get out of the jam. “You can’t leave runners on base against good pitching,” Peter Ames, Eagles’ head coach, told Seacoastonline.com following the game. “You have to take advantage of those opportunities when you have them. (Portsmouth has) some very good pitching. This is some of the best pitching we’ve seen this year. ...After the first inning it was a pretty close game.” Weather-permitting Kennett is slated to close out the week by traveling to Sanborn (3-1) on Friday.
