Conway population hits 10,000 Milestone is ‘interesting to note,’ says town planning director, but ‘has very little if any impact’ BY ERIK EISELE THE CONWAY DAILY SUN

CONWAY — The census numbers are in, and Conway’s population has hit 10,000. The Census Bureau released data for municipalities earlier this week. The

town of Conway ofﬁ cially has 10,115 people, up from 8,646 in 2000. “It’s exactly where we expected we would be,” said town planning director Tom Irving, but “it has very little if any impact.” The town doesn’t lose any state or federal grant eligibility because of the

milestone, and there are no increased expectations because it’s a larger town. “That 10,000 ﬁgure doesn’t make much of a difference in planning,” he said, because Conway is a tourist town. “At see 10,000 page 18

Musician, performer and educator Michael Wingfield, of Portland, plays the conga drum with 6th graders during a presentation of rhythm and song of the African New World to students in grades K-6 in the gymnasium at Conway Elementary School Wednesday. Wingfield also used many styles of the conga drum, a shekere, a flute, and voice with a healthy dose of humor and energy to share the culture that evolved in the new world through generations African descendants. Wingfield is spending four days in schools throughout the valley including Bartlett, John Fuller, Pine Tree, Madison, and Freedom through Arts Jubilee’s “Music in our Sch ools” program.

More pupils are learning online

MEMPHIS (NY Times) — Jack London was the subject in Daterrius Hamilton’s online English 3 course. In a high school classroom packed with computers, he read a brief biography of London with single-paragraph excerpts from the author’s works. But the curriculum did not require him, as it had generations of English students, to wade through a tattered copy of “Call of the Wild.” Hamilton, 18, is among the expanding ranks of students in kindergarten through grade 12 — more than one million in the United States, by one estimate — taking online courses. Advocates of such courses say they allow schools to offer not only makeup courses, but also a richer menu of electives and Advanced Placement classes when there are not enough students to ﬁll a classroom. But critics say online education is driven by a desire to spend less on teachers and buildings, especially as state and local budget crises force cuts to education. They note that there is no sound research showing that online courses at the K-12 level are comparable to face-to-face learning. “This is being proposed for even your youngest students,” said Karen Aronowitz, president of the teachers’ union in Miami “Because it’s good for the kids? No. This is all about cheap.”

White House says shutdown would harm the economy WASHINGTON (NY Times) — President Obama blamed the budget stalemate in Washington on Republicans who are injecting “politics” into the negotiations. He warned that a government shutdown on Saturday would be felt by ordinary families and would threaten the nation’s economic recovery.

“I do not want to see Washington politics stand in the way of America’s progress,” he said. Mr. Obama complained that Democrats had offered concessions in the drawn-out negotiations over the 2011 budget but that Republicans were resistant. “We’ve agreed to a compro-

mise, but somehow we still don’t have a deal, because some folks are trying to inject politics,” Mr. Obama said, citing Republican proposals to curtail ﬁ nancing for abortion providers and other ideologically charged measures. “There are times to have those discussions,” he said, “but that time is not now.”

U.S. sees array of new threats at Japan’s nuclear plant (NY Times) — United States government engineers sent to help with the crisis in Japan are warning that the troubled nuclear plant there is facing a wide array of fresh threats that could persist indeﬁ nitely, and that in some cases are expected to increase as a result of the very measures being taken to keep the plant stable, according to a conﬁ dential assessment prepared by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission. Among the new threats that were cited in the assessment, dated March 26, are the mounting

NATO says Libya strikes are growing

TRIPOLI, Libya (NY Times)— Stung by criticism from rebel leaders, NATO officials said Wednesday that the pace of attacks on the forces of Col. Muammar el-Qaddafi was increasing, after a slight slowdown as the coalition handed off responsibility earlier in the week. Gen. Abdul Fattah Younes, the head of the rebel army, had lashed out at his Western allies during a news conference in Benghazi on Tuesday, accusing NATO of tardiness and indecision. “What is NATO doing?” he asked. “Civilians are dying every day. They use the excuse of collateral damage.” He charged that NATO was enforcing the United Nations-sanctioned no-fly zone too equally, barring the rebels from providing cover for their troops with the few warplanes he said they had repaired. “They said, ‘No, don’t use your planes,’ ” he said. A spokeswoman for NATO, Carmen Romero, said the alliance had flown 137 sorties on Monday and 186 on Tuesday and that it planned to fl y 198 on Wednesday, The Associated Press reported.

of demonstrating what they know?” she said. Hoell said he was focusing on the larger question. “If you force something down children’s throats, you undermine what is being taught,” he said. Other supporters said over the last 80 years, the U.S. Supreme Court has come down on the side of parental rights, giving parents a fundamental right to determine their child’s education. Rep. Seth Cohen, R-Canterbury, said the Bedford case and others like it clearly show there is a problem. “This is in support of parental rights, which I believe are under attack in this state and have been for some time,” Cohen said. But several opponents said the bill sets a dangerous precedent and represents sweeping change in education policy. Rep. Rick Ladd, R-Haverhill, a retired superintendent, noted current law allows parents to remove their children from programs or classes, but delineates a number of alternatives. “Now parents have the ability to take their child out of a school for a right of conscience. Where are you going with that?” he asked. Clair Ebel of the New Hampshire Civil Liberties Union said the bill would eliminate compulsory education and the ability to review home school curriculum.

THE UNION LEADER

BOSTON — A New London man was arrested Wednesday morning after he tried to go through a security checkpoint at Logan International Airport with two antique ﬁrearms in a carry-on bag. Brent Cameron, 44, of New London, was arrested by Massachusetts State Police about 7:45 a.m. and charged with two counts of possession of a ﬁrearm without a license. According to a press release, TSA security in Terminal E contacted state

police after an x-ray machine detected two images that appeared to be handguns in a carry-on bag. Trooper James Savage searched the bag and found two antique .22 caliber Derringer pistols. No ammunition was found. Cameron told troopers he bought the guns at an auction last week and said he did not know they were in the bag. He will be arraigned in East Boston Division of the Boston Municipal Court. —Courtesy of The Union Leader

Jury begins deliberations in shooting NASHUA — A jury is deciding whether a Manchester man committed manslaughter or murder when he shot and killed another man. The defense admitted that Joshua Sprague, 25, shot Lennox Tibbs on Oct. 22, 2009, but they said he should not have been charged with murder, saying it was not premeditated. Prosecutors said Sprague deliberately shot Tibbs in a killing that was motivated by revenge. Investigators said Sprague believed Tibbs’ roommate had set him up to be robbed twice. But defense attorneys said

Sprague’s mind was clouded by drugs and alcohol, and that he thought a cellphone that Tibbs was holding was a gun. The defense said that because of those circumstances, Sprague is not guilty of murder and should have been charged with manslaughter. During the trial, prosecutors played surveillance video for the jury that appeared to show Sprague celebrating after the shooting. They said that when Sprague ﬁ red four shots at Tibbs, he made a conscious decision to kill him. Sprague is also facing burglary charges. —Courtesy of WMUR

CONCORD – A bill allowing parents to take their child out of a school or program if they disapprove of what is taught is too ambiguous, opponents said Tuesday. House Bill 542 (click to view bill status and text) would prohibit school districts from compelling parents to send their child to a school or program if they object for reasons of conscience. Under the bill, school districts would not be able to approve or disapprove of the program parents use as an alternative. The bill’s prime sponsor, Rep. J.R.Hoell, R-Dunbarton, said his proposal “reinforces parental rights.” He used Bedford and the controversy over the book “Nickel and Dimed: On (Not) Getting By in America” as an example. The book was part of a course on ﬁ nancial management required for students to graduate from Bedford High School. “Parents in some schools can opt out, but in this case they could not,” Hoell said. At the public hearing before the Senate Education Committee, Chairman Sen. Nancy Stiles, R-Hampton, was concerned the bill did not address how students would demonstrate the knowledge they would need if they opted out. “You would allow any student out of any program or class without any way

Change is good, vote for fresh faces

Tom McLaughlin

To the editor: Most people hate change. They fear the unknown, convinced change might make matters worse. They think prospects are good for a brighter future, and making things better requires fresh faces, new voices and new ideas. I find it amusing that when people who relish the “good old days” complain about slow Internet connection, or potholes in the road, or unplowed sidewalks, or tourist traffi c, or the overbuilding of hotels, or whatnot. When I look at a photo of Route 16 in the “good old days,” it was a dirt road — often a mud road — maybe the frost heaves aren’t so bad. Imagine the feeling you would have had 100 years ago, when this area had more hotels than we do now, when it was the top tourist destination in the country. Our area was 90 percent cleared, today its 90 percent forest. We change constantly — sometimes for the better, and sometimes we take little steps backwards, and even then, it depends on your point of view. The big things that were going to be the end of the world as we know it, we can hardly remember now. I remember freaking out and yelling at articles in The Conway Daily Sun 12 years ago, when we fi rst moved here. I cannot remember, for the life of me,

Early Old

what they were about, but the world did not end. Have you ever been upset about a change coming to town? Perhaps you were thinking that a new North-South Road, or a Route 16 widening, or a new trafﬁ c light, or a new Walmart, or a new Shaw’s, or a new high school, or another hotel, or a new sign law or balloons in front of a store would ruin our little town. It did not. Is all of it good? Of course not. Is it all bad? Of course not. Regardless of your opinion on individual issues, overall, the good far outweighs the bad, because without change, we would just die. To live requires change. To live well requires risky change. This year, I’m very excited to see so many new names on our ballots. With respect and appreciation for their dedication and hard work, my votes will be for giving fresh faces and ideas a chance. I’m looking forward to learning more about several newcomers, but in particular, I am excited to have three people I personally know to be very smart, talented and committed locals running for ofﬁ ce. I encourage everyone to consider voting for Brian Charles for budget committee along with Mary Seavey and Stacy Sand for selectmen in the town of Conway. Michael Kline North Conway

Bruce column was comprehensive, concise To the editor: The recent column (April 1) by Susan Bruce, “Is This What you Voted For?” transcends political leanings and is one of the ﬁ nest pieces written in New Hampshire papers in recent years. Please run it in the Laconia Daily Sun as well. It is not only well thought out and comprehensive, it is concise

and to the point of what is happening in Concord that could impact our Legislature and all residents of New Hampshire forever. Thank you, Susan, for the personal insight on the myopic and misguided view and apparent unwanted agendas of the current N.H. Legislature. Jack Polidoro Laconia

No indication that correct English grammar was to be taught To the editor: I read with great interest the recent article regarding the restructuring of the English department at Kennett High School, however, nowhere in the article did I note an indication that correct English grammar was to be included in the new program. It has to be known within our educational system that the English language in the valley and around the nation is in a deplorable state. Many of the foreign students who come here during the summer speak better English than do our students. English must be taught somewhere within the system and what better place than the English department? Students don’t seem to be learning

even at home. I believe that it is the responsibility of teachers, all teachers, to keep watch over the speech of students. This means that math, science, art, workshop, athletics teachers et al, must be alerted to bad grammar and correct students on the spot. Don’t let ignorance pass. This is what schools are for. Today we have the problem of “texting,” blogging and other forms of illiteracy completely confusing language. We must at least protect the native language that we were all reared in by learning it early and using it. Let’s assure ourselves that English will be taught locally, as it should be, before we pat ourselves on the back. Lawrence Markey Center Conway

I advise McCarthy to spend more time reading 91a To the editor: In response to Mr. McCarthy’s letter of Tuesday, April 5: Thoughts expressed in my previous letter to the editor concerning emails generated during the Carroll County Delegation’s budgetary process, though never actually mentioning you, did offer my agreement that ignorance of the law played a part and, as clariﬁ ed in my letter, one particular statement in the emails did, “Appear to indicate an attempt at secrecy or conspiracy.” In so far as anything in my letter may have expressed something that embarrassed you and left you un-willing to admit a mistake I apologize. I also offer an apology for my use of the word egregious as its application may have been misunderstood. The emails in questions are covered under 91a’s wording on electronic records. My use of egregious related to the contravening of 91a not the conscious intention of the author of the emails. Regarding your interpretation of : 91a as it relates to electronic communications of elected ofﬁ cials, the post occurrence application ‘caucus’ as a tactic in this instance, your application of “Electronic Communications Privacy Act 18 U.S.C. 2510” and your right of free speec, I can only offer my advice that you step back a bit and spend more time reading 91a, understand that a caucus as a parliamentary method used to conduct the government’s business outside of public view is something declared by the leader of a party, not a party member; understand

that the “Electronic Communications Privacy Act 18 U.S.C. 2510” relates to federal wiretapping regulations and come to terms with the fact that as an elected official you are necessarily held to a more stringent standard than a common citizen regarding free speech, while conducting the business of the people. Rules concerning the behavior of elected officials are enacted to insure that certain impediments are placed upon those elected and the resulting power they have over the lives of the governed to insure that the governed can know not only what is being done but how and by whom. I will admit that as much as I admire your willingness to speak your mind — a trait I have personally commended you on — your declaration that the application of 91a to communications generated from your responsibilities as an elected official shall be limited to, “Your opinion,” and your avowal that you will continue to, “email and telephone my colleagues at will,” distresses me because it indicates that you have yet to accept that being granted the power to govern the lives of others you have yet to see the wisdom in limiting those powers. Both the U.S. and New Hampshire constitutions are founded upon the rubble of tyrannical powers and are thus dedicated to limiting the power of government and the arrogance it tends to create. As a citizen you should agree with this, as an elected official you must accept it. Henry Spencer Effingham

Charles has proven record in understanding of finance To the editor: I am writing in support of Brian Charles’ candidacy for the budget committee. Brian has a proven track record in three important areas: his understanding of fi nance, his capacity to interpret economic conditions, and his ability to work with others. Regarding his knowledge of fi nance and his competence to interpret economic conditions: Brian is successfully self-employed and is a Conway taxpayer. He founded, owns, and operates two businesses in Conway and employs other full time workers who pay taxes. His fi rst endeavor, the Charles Double Reed Company, has been a prosperous business for the past 27 years. Brian opened his second, thriving business, the North Conway Music Shop, when many other businesses were failing. Brian also has a knack for working collaboratively. He has employed the same people in his businesses for the past decade. He was a member of the Rockhouse Property Owners Association board and has also served on the board of the White Mountain Waldorf School, a non-profit organization which receives no public funds and runs a suc-

cessful school program. Brian has lived in the valley (and has paid taxes in Conway) since 1994. He has been married for 15 years to his wife, Sarah, and they have a 12-year-old son who will be attending Kennett High School. Brian is a Juilliard-trained professional classical musician with many recording and performance credits. He has been well trained in working towards common goals and listens well to others. He knows how to buckle down and master the task at hand. Brian Charles will work tirelessly and intelligently to help insure that our town is fi scally successful and that the burden on taxpayers is reasonably assessed. At the same time, he knows that performing budget committee duties responsibly includes working with others in local government so that no-one reduces the processes to powerstruggles. He recognizes that allocating sufficient funds to the town budget and managing educational fi nancing without placing quality student experiences at risk is an investment in the present as well as the future. Therese Davison Conway

My pledge is to do my very best to represent everyone To the editor: Dear fellow taxpayers, I am requesting your consideration in this year’s election, as I am running for a twoyear slot on the budget committee. My pledge is to do my very best to represent everyone during these austere times, whether a school teacher or spouse of a school teacher, a business owner, a retiree living on a ﬁxed income pension, or a homeowner or renter. I further pledge to do this with an

open mind reviewing the budget proposals based on both their intrinsic and ﬁscal merits. To this end, I stand on my qualiﬁcations and past performance as I have held six different elected positions over the past years including school treasurer, school board clerk, trustee of the trust, member of the budget committee, library trustee, and planning board member.

board members negotiate contracts for services and develop and implement a yearly budget for our state association. I am a homeowner, a business owner, a professional, a health-care worker, a volunteer, a mother, a wife, a daughter and very much part of the fabric of this community. I believe I can offer a different perspective than the current makeup of the board. I am the ninth of 12 children raised in an Irish Catholic family. I can handle tough negotiations, discourse and disruptive behavior. I have seven sisters and four brothers and we grew up with a sign in front of our house that my mom had made up that read “Bedlam Manor." That sign might have come in handy with this past year’s budget committee. I have a severely handicapped sister who I dearly love and advocate for. Her only crime, Mr. Shakir, was that my mom had the German measles during her fi rst trimester; we don’t consider her a drain on our family or the society. I believe I am a better person for having grown up knowing and caring for her." Why are you running? "I am running because I feel that our local government has been hijacked by people who do not have our community’s best interest at heart. I see a growing hostility aimed at our education system as a whole and the pitting of our elderly against our children. I have noticed that politics has crept into the debate and misinformation is frequently passed off as truth to the general public." What would you like to accomplish as a budget committee member? "I would like to see a rational discussion of the facts and decisions made on the basis of those facts. I would like to see the meetings conducted in a professional manner, something that has been missing in the past few years, but especially in the past year. I would like to see a responsible committee that has the community’s best interest at heart. I think we can do right by our elderly, our middle class and our children by balancing our budget in an honest and fair way." What specifi c skills do you feel you bring to the position? "I have served on two different state professional association boards as president and currently as secretary treasurer. I balance these budgets as well as my own as a small-business owner. I currently have to negotiate my own health-care insurance and juggle my own expenses and income just like the town has to do. I know how to prioritize and how to look at all expenditures with costs and benefi t analysis. I also deal with people from all walks of life in my profession as an anesthetist; I know what real people experience on a daily

numbers. I would like to add that I am not running to be a rubber stamp for anyone as may have been suggested in prior letters to this paper." What would you like to accomplish as a budget committee member? "At the very least I would hope to accomplish better communication between the budget committee and the public, but I do realize that the public has to participate in this dialogue as well as members of the committee." What speciﬁc skills do you feel you bring to the position? "My undergraduate degree is in economics and I was the president of the Economics Honor Society in college. I also have taught economics at Granite State College as well as business law." How do you plan to balance the needs of the (town, school, police department) with the needs of the taxpayers? Would you have supported the budget committee’s 11 percent cut of the school budget? (No answer given.) Why do you feel the budget committee has

basis in this community. I see the uninsured as well as the extremely well off and I see health as the great equalizer in life. While money can buy you good treatments and availability of the best providers, even that is sometimes never enough. It is clear that all the money in the world means nothing if you don’t have your health." How do you plan to balance the needs of the (town, school, and police department) with the needs of the taxpayers? "I plan to look at the facts and base my decisions on what is best for the citizens and the taxpayers. I will look at the short term as well as the longterm costs to the community. I hope to be able to get supporting information from the departments on requests as well as cuts to be able to make an informed decision." Would you have supported the budget committee’s 11 percent cut of the school budget? "Absolutely not, and I voiced my opposition to the cuts at several budget committee meetings as well the town school meeting." Why do you feel the budget committee has been regarded in a negative light recently? "I believed they failed miserably at their duty as a committee. I feel that they had an agenda which mattered more to them than a rational budget proposal. I felt that they were cowardly in putting forward this budget and then forcing a secret ballot because they were too ashamed to vote in public for their own plan. This happened at both the town and the school meeting. I think that anyone who attended or viewed any of the budget committee meetings would agree that it was a hostile environment for anyone who disagreed with the committee's slash-and-burn technique and was thoroughly unprofessional. I found it astonishing that none of the other committee members countered Mr. Shakir’s and chairman (Dave) Sordi’s public disparaging remarks about Conway citizens, the disabled, teachers, children — wow, I could go on and on at what they disparaged. But what I find most disturbing that a sitting state representative would just sit there (at budget meetings) and not stand up for our citizens against this type of vile attack." What can be done to improve the budget committee and school board’s relationship? "I think that regular meetings should be planned and I think we need new membership on the budget committee that actually wants to do the right thing and deal in facts. Mr. Shakir and the others who have demonstrated their unwillingness to do this should resign immediately. As long as they are on the budget committee you will have a toxic atmosphere and an unwillingness to work together to solve problems."

Do you feel there are too many seats on the budget committee, just enough or not enough? "I would like to see the positions ﬁ lled, and I would like to make sure that people who have conﬂicts of interest disclose that up front. I think that one positive thing that came out of this committee’s incompetence was that people began to pay attention and realize that elections have consequences. More people should run or put themselves forward for appointment." Do you like SB2? Why or why not. "No I do not. I did not know much about it until this year. My understanding is that because of SB2 we have lost true local control. In the past we would have town meetings just like we have had this year and what was decided at the meeting was put into effect — that was it. Now we have the town meetings to hash out what the year-round residents want and then have to wait until April when all the seasonal residents who list N.H. as their primary residence come back to vote. This I believe gives unfair advantage to those who may not have our year-round community’s best interest at heart. It caters to those who are here only seasonally and allows a chance that the will of the year-round residents may be overturned." What experience do you have reviewing budgets? "I have been involved in state association budget processes since 1993 and I am a small-business owner and have been since 1996." The budget committee has suffered because some members do not attend meetings regularly or have quit before their terms expire. Barring unforeseen dramatic circumstances, how committed would you be? "I will make every effort to attend meetings. I do not agree that members who rarely attend meetings are allowed to show up and vote on extremely critical issues, such as a few of the current budget committee members." In light of the recent tone of budget committee meetings and the deliberative session of the school meeting, what are your feelings regarding the need for civility in public discourse? "I thoroughly agree that meetings should be rational, orderly and professional. I expect that the new chairperson will come prepared with an agenda and structure a meeting that is civil and fair. I can assure you, however, that if members speak to issues which are not factual, or are political in nature or disparaging of our citizens, I will speak immediately to that issue and insist that corrections be made to the record."

been regarded in a negative light recently? (No answer given.) What can be done to improve the budget committee and school board’s relationship? "Without being a member of either board, I do not feel qualiﬁ ed to answer this question. As a general matter, however, there should be a common goal between these boards and committees, and that is the betterment of Conway as whole, not individualized agendas (whatever they may be). By betterment of Conway as a whole, I mean quality of life, which means safety, education and cost of living." Do you feel there are too many seats on the budget committee, just enough or not enough? "Without being a member of this board to witness the actual dynamics I am not really in a position to answer this question yet." Do you like SB2? Please explain why or why not? (No answer given.) What experience do you have reviewing budgets? "Besides my own personal family budget, I have

not had experience in reviewing budgets, certainly not municipal budgets." The budget committee has suffered because some members do not attend meetings regularly or have quit before their terms expire. Barring unforeseen dramatic circumstances, how committed would you be? "Before I decided to run I inquired of many people the time commitments involved in many different committees in Conway. I signed up knowing what the commitment required and the expectations of a such a role. I would not run if I was not intending to meet those commitments." In light of the recent tone of budget committee meetings and the deliberative session of the school meeting, what are your feelings regarding the need for civility in public discourse? "Clearly public discourse needs to be civil, however, there will always be topics that ignite passionate responses. Part of being an elected ofﬁcial of any capacity is understanding that you may sometimes be subject to angry constituents. How you handle and represent those issues and individuals is what is important."

"I am running for the budget committee because I feel that I am very supportive of our schools and town. I am a good listener and feel that everyone has a right to their opinion. Maybe cuts need to be made in our school budget and town budgets, but I am not in favor of cuts that will drastically impact the education of our children or our town. I know it is hard, but the members of our budget committee, school board and the school administrators need to work together to resolve budget issues." What would you like to accomplish as a budget committee member? "I would like to be able to help in the proposals of budgets for both the town and school that do not have huge increases every year. There are many increases in budgets over which our budget committee has no control, such as increases in fuel costs. But there are many increases in budgets over which we do have control, and I would like to see a better dialogue between the budget committee, school board, school administrators and the town in the negotiation of these budget line items." What specific skills do you feel you bring to the position? "The specific skills that I feel I bring to the budget committee are as follows: I have owned and operated my own business for over 30 years and know what it takes to run a business; have worked in accounting fi eld my entire career; and have served on the budget committee for several years. As a business person I know what it takes to run a business in

board of Harvest Hills, a member of the board of the community center, and a member of the board of the American Red Cross. I am currently a board member of MWV Economic Council. I have also had published numerous article that deal with the economy and business matters. In fact, I was a regulate contributor to the New Hampshire Business Review for several years." Why are you running? "I have always been a strong believer in giving back to my community in ways that make a difference such as volunteering, making donations, and serving on various boards." What would you like to accomplish as a budget committee member? "I would like to apply my fi nancial and business expertise to bring the right kind of reasoned balance to budgetary analysis and discussions. My position is a simple one, to wit: I favor critical public services and an excellent education for our kids but to go beyond these goals requires the need to factor in our ability to afford such things. We are not Exeter or Hanover and simply may not have the per capita salary fi gures to afford what those towns can afford. To this end, I am fi scally conservative but also socially moderate when it comes to balancing things. As just one example, I would never ever be in favor jeopardizing the education of our kids, particularly those with learning disabilities. "My pledge is to represent everyone, whether a spouse of a school teacher, an owner of a business, or a retiree living on a fi xed-income pension and/ or on Social Security. And to do this with an open mind and no private agendas." What specific skills do you feel you bring to the position? "I spent several years as a member of the Conway Budget Committee. I also have a sound

these difﬁcult times." How do you plan to balance the needs of the town, school, and police department with the needs of the taxpayers? Would you have supported the budget committee’s 11 percent cut of the school budget? "My goals are to be able to balance the needs of the town, school and police department but also look out for the taxpayer. I do hear the cries of people that no longer can afford their taxes. We also have to realize that a good education for our children makes our town, state, and country more able to compete in the world. Maybe we need to look to the federal and state government to stop cutting funds for mandated program. We, as a school district, cannot cut funds from mandated programs at the expense of our regular education programs. "I did not agree with the 11 percent cut in the school budget. That is way too big a cut and will hurt the education of our children. There will have to be cuts in the maintenance of the buildings and grounds, which will only cost us more in the future." Why do you feel the budget committee has been regarded in a negative light recently? "I feel that the actions of a few members of the budget committee make it look bad for the whole committee. I always told my children, 'It’s not what you say, but how you say it.' Some members of our budget committee have their minds make up already, and nothing you say will change their minds." What can be done to improve the budget committee and school board’s relationship? "Parents and concerned citizens want the best possible education for our children. It is very difﬁ cult for the dedicated school administrators that have worked so hard over the past years to improve academic standards and lower the dropout rate, to now have to make cuts in programs that will negatively impact their positive accomplishment. I am not sure what the right answers are, but I know, if I am elected to the budget committee, I will listen to all sides. There has to be a middle ground, where all concerned parties can agree." Do you feel there are too many seats on the

budget committee, just enough or not enough? "I am not sure if there are too many, not enough, or too few seats on the budget committee. I would like to see more members elected by the people and fewer members appointed. I always said, 'If you do not like what the board is doing do something about it. Run for office!'" Do you like SB2? Please explain why or why not? "I do not like SB2. Less people attend the deliberative session of town or school meeting. Therefore, fewer people decide the budget for town and school." What experience do you have reviewing budgets? "I have owned and operated my own business for over 30 years and know what it takes to run a business; have worked in the accounting fi eld my entire career; and served on the budget committee for several years. As a business person, I know what it takes to run a business in these difficult times." The budget committee has suffered because some members do not attend meetings regularly or have quit before their terms expire. Barring unforeseen dramatic circumstances, how committed would you be? "I am running for a one-year term on the budget committee. If I am elected, I feel it is my civic duty to the voters to complete my term." In light of the recent tone of budget committee meetings and the deliberative session of the school meeting, what are your feelings regarding the need for civility in public discourse? "I listen to the budget committee and school board meetings on Channel 3 on a regular basis. I also attended the deliberative session of school budget meeting. People that spoke were very passionate about their feelings; it is very hard not to show emotions. I do think that the meeting was out of control. It was hard for the moderator to control the outbursts. I would hate to see all discussion cut off because of these outbursts. I feel everyone has a right to their opinions and should be able to voice them. That is the democratic form of government."

grasp of accounting and business fundamental both as result of my education and as a result of my lengthy business experience in the corporate world. I am intimately familiar with different kinds of budgetary approaches including line-item budgets, zero-based budgets, and both top down and bottom up types." How do you plan to balance the needs of the (town, school, police department) with the needs of the taxpayers? Would you have supported the budget committee’s 11 percent cut of the school budget? "No. I would not have supported that cut. One needs to take a close look at the budget and make sure that the assumptions on which it is based are accurate and make sense in a changing economic situation — and the one we are in now is certainly changing. It is important to exercise prudence, but it is more important that any large reduction proposals are based on sound reasoning and relate to speciﬁcs." Why do you feel the budget committee has been regarded in a negative light recently? "That's a matter of individual perception, perhaps intensiﬁed by letters to the editor. It is what it is. I don't believe everyone feels that way. Still, certain things need to be presented in a circumspect manner, and that generally will result in a civil response." What can be done to improve the budget committee and school board’s relationship? "Dialogue, dialogue and more dialogue instead of confrontation. Yes, disagreement comes with the territory but that disagreement must be based on mutual respect and open-mindedness." Do you feel there are too many seats on the budget committee, just enough or not enough? "I have always maintained that it is somewhat too large, which in turn that makes it a bit unwieldy."

Do you like SB2? Please explain why or why not? "There are pros and cons to both, but the town meeting approach is one that approves the town budget and warrant articles at a day-long town meeting where there is the potential that a special interest group pushing their own issues and agendas could take control of ballot and budget issues, and that concerns me. With the ofﬁ cial ballot, voters have time to think (deliberate) about the issues on the ballot, after hearing the arguments at a deliberative session. Under the town meeting scenario, a voter may be forced to make an immediate decision without thinking about the consequences of the vote." What experience do you have reviewing budgets? "In addition to having served on the Conway Budget Committee for several years, I managed budgets in the corporate world for 40 years. In fact, the last major one I oversaw was a one-time extraordinary charge of one-half billion dollars that I successfully managed for Digital Equipment Corporation in the capacity of worldwide director of employee relations." The budget committee has suffered because some members do not attend meetings regularly or have quit before their terms expire. Barring unforeseen dramatic circumstances, how committed would you be? "God willing, I am and will be totally committed." In light of the recent tone of budget committee meetings and the deliberative session of the school meeting, what are your feelings regarding the need for civility in public discourse? "The need for civility in public discourse is manifest. Little is gained by a lack of civility or personal attacks except to make things more divisive and combustible."

taxpayers? Would you have supported the budget committee’s 11 percent cut of the school budget? "I believe a combination of measures should be considered. For example, I would recommend a professional consultation by a company that could perform the task of evaluating our schools to reveal effi ciencies we have not been able to uncover. While many members of this town are highly skilled individuals, very few, if any, are qualifi ed to perform this rather large task and past attempts have shown very little results. All the town budgets need to be considered in this same type of light. While the portion of tax revenue is not equal in each budget that does not mean that we can’t give each the same consideration. I think we should explore new revenue sources that are not directly related to property taxes. That being said I also recommend we continue to invest in our community. We need to continually attract new people to this area and encourage them to build their homes here. This will further enrich our valley and help us grow and maintain the quality of life residents find so desirable here. "I did not support the 11 percent cut to the school budget and have a very clear voting record to that effect." Why do you feel the budget committee has been regarded in a very negative light recently? "Nobody wants to cut services, and those who do are often condemned and criticized for bringing the subject to discussion. The budget committee serves as a balance to the town and school budgeting process and has the responsibility to make sensible and specifi c recommendations. The sessions are open to anyone who wants to learn more about the budgeting process, and all are entitled to make suggestions and comments. The budget committee is a tool and the voter is the ultimate wielder. People are very unsatisfied with the way the budget committee acted this year and I hope that will be reflected in the polls when they vote in April." What can be done to improve the budget committee and school board’s relationship? "Specific information. I think the budget committee should spend more time getting further involved in the school system and its operations. They could then target specifi c areas of concern and address them with a system of measurable results. I like to think each member of these boards has a common goal of making this a great place to live and work." Do you think there are too many seats on the budget committee, just enough or not enough? "Without seeing a full committee in action, I do not yet know enough to determine the correct answer to that question. However I do suspect we will have a full committee this year and that should make a big difference." Do you like SB2? Please explain why or why not. "I think Conway has grown to the point where our previous method of town meetings is not enough to decide the direction of almost 10,000 people. The SB2 system may not be ideal but I think it is a reasonable solution for where we are right now. Perhaps as we grow we can entertain the possibility of legislative bodies and town councils." What experience do you have reviewing budgets? "I have owned several businesses — some successful and some not. I currently spend a great deal of time using budgetary tools at work and am very familiar with developing goals and using measurable results. The budget committee has suffered because some members do not attend meetings regularly or have quit before their terms expire. Barring unforeseen circumstances, how committed would you be? "I fully expect to serve out my term if elected. I have asked for the privilege to serve my community, and, saving any emergency, I intend to fulfill that commitment. I do not believe absentee members can act in good faith. If you cannot consistently attend meetings, you are missing vital information and should resign your seat to someone who is more committed to the task." In light of the recent tone of budget committee meetings and the deliberative session of the school meeting, what are your feelings regarding the need for civility in public discourse? "Tempers and emotions fl are during stressful situations such as evidenced by these past few months. I believe in healthy discourse and understand the level of passion is sometimes too much to contain. I would like to think that we can all agree on certain topics, and some common ground can be found among rational people. Furthermore I think a true test of character is not avoiding such mistakes or outbursts but it is how well you learn from these situations and then retain your ability to continually move forward."

Two library trustees to be elected There are three candidates for two library trustee seats. Candidates are are Sarah Charles and incumbents Bill Marvel and Judith Seddon.

Tell us as much as you comfortable with about your family, work, history in Conway, including volunteering, committee work, or past positions held as a public ofﬁcial. My husband Brian and I moved to Conway in 1994 from NYC, bringing with us his 10-year-old business, Charles Double Reed Company. We worked together for the next 13 and a half years. We were married in 1995, and our son, Theo, was born in 1998. Theo goes to the White Mountain Waldorf School, where I serve on the board, started and chaired the annual Giving Committee, served on the capital campaign, been on the parents' association, was class parent for ﬁve years, painted and designed many signs, invitations, posters, brochures and other literature for the school, and volunteer in many capacities. Our family has also volunteered in our community at our libraries, Valley Pride Day, at Mountain Top Music and Jen’s Friends. Brian and I have performed with our amazing local community theater, M&D Productions (Your Theatre), and I dance with the adult modern dance class at Jeanne Limmer’s dance studio. Having a passion for health and wellness, I work part time at The Local Grocer in North Conway, an amazing natural food market, caf&eacute; and general health food store. Why are you running? I love our library and the librarians, and our family uses our library a lot. It’s an incredibly important resource, and I am deeply grateful to have it available in our community. I was asked if I would be willing to serve on the board, and after considering this carefully, I became clear that I could commit to this

Tell us as much as you comfortable with about your family, work, history in Conway, including volunteering, committee work, or past positions held as a public official. I have lived for most of my life on Davis Hill in South Conway, where my father and I both grew up. I make my living as an independent scholar specializing in 19th-century American history, as which I work as an editor and a consultant in addition to my own research and writing. I’m currently working on my fifteenth book. Between 1980 and 1990 I served as an alternate on the board of adjustment, as a member of the budget committee and the planning board (two terms each), as chairman of the historic district commission, and as vice chairman (if I remember correctly) of the capital improvements committee. I was appointed to fi ll an unexpired term on the board of library trustees about a decade ago, and I’m now fi nishing a full term on that same board. My volunteer history includes working with the local literacy program in the late 1980s, working as a carpenter in the renovation of the Swift River covered bridge, and serving as clerk of the works when Conway’s old fi re station was remodeled as Mountain Top Music Center, four years ago. I also sat in occasionally for the former curator of the Henney History Room as his health declined. Why are you running? The board of library trustees should reflect a diversity of background and opinion that it often does not, and I certainly add to that diversity. If there is

Tell us as much as you comfortable with about your family, work, history in Conway, including volunteering, committee work, or past positions held as a public ofﬁcial. I met my husband David at Colby College in Maine, and after graduation we married and had two children who have provided us with three beautiful granddaughters. Both of us taught for 35 years, primarily in New Jersey high schools, and, in 1967, purchased our property in South Conway, a former boys' camp, where we and our children spent summers and school holidays until we retired here in 1996. Since then I have been a Conway Library Trustee for ﬁ ve years. I am hoping to be elected once again. In addition, I am a volunteer for the American Cancer Society, driving local cancer patients to hospital and treatment centers in New Hampshire and Maine for care or surgery. The Mountain Garden Club, to which I have belonged since 2000, is an organization that raises money for charitable groups in the Valley and for scholarships for local students, all of special interest to me. Why are you running? I am running for library trustee because I believe the Conway Library has an important and essential place in our community. Not only does it provide a meeting place for various local organizations and venues, it also offers multi-faceted services to its patrons, which I support and would like to see continue. What would you like to accomplish as a library trustee? As a trustee, I would like to help the library continue to provide a reliable and current

service in terms of time, interest, care and consideration, and it would be an honor for me to serve my community through this venue. What would you like to accomplish as a library trustee? The fi rst thing I would need to accomplish is to learn is how I might best serve, what is needed, and how that might best be accomplished. I think the library director and staff are phenomenal, and I hope to support their outreach programs and ideas in a financially sound way. What specific skills do you bring to the position? I have experience on the board of trustees at the Waldorf School and ran a business with my husband for over 13 years. I have worked for others, with others and in leadership roles.

one department in my community that I am suited to serve by both inclination and experience, it is the library. What would you like to accomplish as a library trustee? The only specific goal I have in mind involves protecting the collection of manuscript and rare-book materials in the Henney History Room. They have survived undamaged in a flood-prone basement only by good fortune, and recent incidences of extensive water damage in other basement-level repositories have made that precaution seem much more urgent than it once did. In general I would like to resist the trend toward homogenization in public libraries, and to assure that ours continues to maintain all its shelves, rather than stinting some categories to please ephemeral popular tastes. What specific skills do you bring to the position? Libraries and historical societies are the repositories of nearly everything I need to do my work. Last year alone I spent forty working days in libraries and other research facilities scattered from New England to California, and that wasn’t a particularly heavy research year for me. I’m familiar with collections, procedures, and policies, as well as with the various forms of information storage and the equipment they require. Unlike most of the staff at our library, and most of the other trustees, I am also intimately familiar with our state, regional, and local history, and that knowledge can determine whether our library addresses that history adequately.

collection (books, journals, etc.) for the community, which, in turn, continues to maintain public trust. Another of my interests is the re-examination of existing space in order to accommodate our Henney History Room and young adult section in exciting new ways. What specific skills do you bring to the position? The skills I am bringing to the position of library trustee are an innate as well as an experienced understanding of the services a library must offer to all members of the community, as I have used libraries so frequently in my personal and professional lives. In addition, during these last five years, I have worked on various library committees, which have helped me understand the compromises necessary to deal with the needs of the library as it faces financial limitations. How do you plan to balance the needs of the library with the needs of the taxpayers? As a member of the board of trustees I have felt that we have had to make intelligent choices in this difficult economy by using existing resources and

How do you plan to balance the needs of the library with the needs of the taxpayers? The needs of the library are representative of many of the needs of the taxpayers because the library is there to serve the taxpayers. Not all taxpayers use the library, and I would have to learn more about where these needs don’t match up, and research how other libraries work, and work with the other trustees to bring about the best solutions. What role does the library play in the Internet age? I feel having a library to offer free loans is indispensable to the public. In addition to books, the library also has books on tape, CDs and movies available, a free meeting room, free programs that will help you learn to write a resume, and delight your 3 year old with a magical puppet show, free use of computers and wiﬁ , a place for artists to show

their work, and a place for parents to bring their young children for story time. Perhaps the library will bring programs from foreign lands to our community via Skype. What should the library’s priority be — books or hours open? I don’t believe either of those are the library’s priority. The library’s priority, as I understand it, is to serve the public to the best of its ability, and obviously, it needs to be open for the public to have access, and it need to have books available. What’s the last book you read? Sometimes I read more than one book at a time. Here is a list of the last few books I’ve read: "The Wave," by Susan Casey, "The Messenger," by Daniel Silva, "Ahab’s Wife," by Sena Jeter Naslund, Steig Larson’s "The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo," "The Girl Who Played with Fire" and "The Girl Who Kicked the Hornet’s Nest."

How do you plan to balance the needs of the library with the needs of the taxpayers? In my current term I have lobbied, successfully, to apply the library's expendable trust fund money to keep the library budget level or near-level, and I've tried with less success to persuade my fellow trustees to adopt a less ambitious collection-weeding policy, in order to keep replacement costs down. I may be the most conservative ﬁ scal voice on the board, and I'm naturally skeptical about leaping into costly new endeavors. At the same time I have been a regular patron of the Conway Public Library since 1957, and I regard it as having contributed substantially to my early education despite what many then considered an antiquated collection. What role does the library play in the Internet age? Our library, if that is what is meant by "the library," serves as a better-than-average way station for the traveling public and for that portion of our community living without sufﬁ cient means for home access. A few public stations in the stacks area were removed a few years ago, but there still seem to be enough to go around. I use them myself when I need something faster than my home dial-up connection, and rarely have I had to leave a machine because someone was waiting for it, even after a couple of hours. Certain historical and genealogical subscriptions are more affordable and better used when provided through such a public facility, and it makes particular sense with the corresponding resources in the Henney History Room. Expanding beyond the present level, either in terms of stations or services, may well begin to test that optimal cost-effectiveness.

What should the library’s priority be — books or hours open? That question strikes a nerve. Considering our investment in the building and the costs that remain constant whether it is open or closed, I deemed it a very poor decision to cut the library's hours by eight percent — 232 hours over the entire year — in order to accumulate still more money for the collection. We already have a massive investment in the collection and in equipment like the computer stations that can only be capitalized upon by frequent use and ready access. It would be far better to have more time to use the collection we already have than to curtail hours so we can afford to increase that collection only a little. Perhaps if administrative salaries had been reduced to refl ect the shortened hours, I might have objected less strenuously, but that was not part of the decision. Board conversations over the past year made it clear to me that this choice was made primarily to generate the greatest possible publicity from our budget restraints, regardless of its impact on patrons. What’s the last book you read? At any given moment I'm usually reading at least one book in the course of my work day, and another one for pleasure in the evening. The one I'm reading for "work" right now is my own next book "Tarnished Victory: Finishing Lincoln's War," the copy-edited manuscript of which has come back for proofi ng from the publisher. Two nights ago I fi nished "Indian Summer," an 1885 novel of manners by William Dean Howells, and last night I started Gordon Wood's recent history of the early American Republic called "Empire of Liberty."

space in, perhaps, different ways, a job we’ve done well. Sometimes, we ﬁnd we must give up one important item on a wish list in favor of another, but this is life’s lesson, isn’t it? What role does the library play in the Internet age? The library plays many important roles in this Internet age by providing computer access to people who have no home computers, who can no longer afford computer services, and who need help in locating information of all kinds, such as job availability, opportunities for career changes, research, travel, ﬁnance, entertainment, etc. Often they need our knowledgeable staff to guide them through the complexities of the Internet. What should the library’s priority be — books or hours open? The library’s priority should be books (the collection), which must be up-todate and reliable, providing accurate and current information. What’s the last book you read? I read these two books during the same time period: "Tess of the d’Urbervilles" by Thomas Hardy (1891) and "The Hotel on the Corner of Bitter and Sweet" by Jamie Ford (2009).

of the Damon O’Neal Memorial trophy. I married Judy Birkbeck in 1963 and lived in Albany for 20 years. I was a member of the Albany School Board, Albany Volunteer Fire Department and planning board. We have four children: Christopher and his wife Robin and two boys live in Fryeburg; Damon and his two children live in Conway; Jennifer and her two boys live in Conway; and William “Lumpa” lived in North Conway with his daughter until his passing in 2009. We adopted Judy’s niece in 2001. All our children have been in the Conway school system, and one still is. I was a member of the Elks Lodge 2055 of Conway. I went through the chairs to become Exalted Ruler and held that office for two years. I was also bestowed the honor of being noted “Elk of the Year." I was a member of the North Conway Village Association for many years and was on one of the first committees to install skis, tennis rackets and fl ower baskets on the utility poles though out the village of North Conway. I have worked in retail most of my adult life. Just to mention a few, I was manager of the Joe Jones in North Conway for 29 years, Code West, Bootleggers, and HH Brown. I work weekends at Northern Human Services driving clients to and from work. I work for the U.S. Forest Service on the “Kanc” and have for the past 10 years. I also have my own property-maintenance business taking care of two shopping centers in Conway. 2. Why are you running? I’m running for police commissioner because I feel as though I could give valuable input to the board. I have common sense, so I would think things through before making any decisions. 3.

I’ve worked with the public for over 50 years. 5. How do you plan to balance the needs of the police department with the needs of the taxpayers? By doing with what we have at this time. 6. What should the police department do with money left over in its budget at the end of the year? The leftover money, if any, should go towards next year's budget. 7. Do you think crime is a big problem in Conway? No. This area has State Police, Sheriff Department and other law enforcement offi cers that could help out if needed. 8. Do you think the police department is too small, about right or too big? About right. 9. What improvements, if any, would you like to see at the police department?

I have been involved in many community activities, including North Conway Fire Department, Kennett High School Key Club, Mount Washington Valley Kiwanis, during which I was past president, Project Graduation chairman and co-chair, and the Mount Washington Valley Science Fair. 2. Why are you running? I am running because I want to serve my community. Since my appointment to the police commission in September of 2010 I have learned a great deal about the workings of police department. Moving forward I believe that I have skills to offer that will make a positive difference. 3. What would you like to accomplish as a police commissioner? With the economical issues facing the Conway residents, I am looking for ways to save tax dollars, live in a safe community and still continue to build our town responsibly. 4. What specifi c skills do you bring to the position? Throughout my career, budget development and oversight have been my strong points. I am becoming well versed in the complexities and nuance of municipal budgeting, and believe that I can work with the department and commissioners to improve the system. 5. How do you plan to balance the needs of the police department with the needs of the taxpayers? Balancing need and affordability is a challenge that each municipal board faces in good times and in not-sogood times. The best way to meet that challenge is to effectively communicate the department's needs, build a responsible budget that refl ects the identifi ed needs, and spend wisely and transparently.

PORTER from page 13

Conway all my life. It is time for me to give back to the community. I am a businessman and have the time to bring my extensive business experience to the police commission. I have a common-sense approach to business and feel that I can make smart choices. 3. What would you like to accomplish as a police commissioner? I believe that commissioners should personify integrity, champion local government and be committed to safeguarding the community's quality of life. 4. What speciﬁ c skills do you bring to the position? I have excellent communication skills. I am a detail-oriented problem solver that can bring a fresh perspective to the police commission. 5. How do you plan to balance the needs of the police department with the needs of the taxpayers? I believe the police commission should remain transparent with the oversight of policies and budget while approaching the role with the best interests of the taxpayers as the most critical guiding principle. 6. What should the police depart-

6. What should the police department do with money left over in its budget at the end of the year? I am in favor of establishing protocols around end-of-year spending that will not hamstring the department. Every organization has unanticipated needs arise during the year that require spending. I think we need to identify those needs throughout the year, prioritize items that are essential to service, and communicate the need to the community. 7. Do you think crime is a big problem in Conway? Crime is a problem in every town, and statistics indicate that Conway has more than its fair share. Our economy, in large part, depends on attracting thousands of visitors throughout the year. A high rate of crime is not good for our residents and visitors, nor is it good for business. 8. Do you think the police department is too small, about right or too big? I think that the Conway Police Department is understaffed, which is why I supported a new offi cer in the general budget and the request for two additional offi cers on a special warrant article. Our calls for service warrant additional offi cers, and I believe a stronger police presence will reduce the number of street crimes, such as burglaries and car theft, from being committed. 9. What improvements, if any, would you like to see at the police department? I would like to see more open and frequent communication about budgetary needs. I would like to explore the possibility of setting up a capital reserve fund to replace or purchase any new or needed equipment. 10. Have you ever been convicted of a crime? If yes please elaborate. No.

ment do with money left over in its budget at the end of the year? After realizing all predetermined goals and objectives of the ﬁ nancial plan, I feel that it is important to return any unused funds. 7. Do you think crime is a big problem in Conway? I do not believe that crime is a big problem in Conway because of the commitment to excellence by the police department and its staff. 8. Do you think the police department is too small, about right or too big? I believe the police department is managing at its current size. I am also mindful of the fact that based on certain reports conducted by the police department they are understaffed and haven’t added any personnel in more than three years. 9. What improvements, if any, would you like to see at the police department? At this time it would be hard to determine any improvements without involvement with the police department. 10. Have you ever been convicted of a crime? If yes please elaborate. I have not been convicted of any crimes.

2. Why are you running? I am running for police commissioner because I've always wanted to be a police commissioner, to be able to work closely with the police in all aspects of the job. I believe I can be of help in many ways to the Conway Police Department, and to the people of Conway. 3. What would you like to accomplish as a police commissioner? I would like to work closely with all the offi cers to create organizations within the department that would help people teach the people of Conway and other towns within New Hampshire on how they can prevent crimes, to teach our children how to be better citizens, now and when they're adults, to deter domestic violence, drunk driving, and of course drugs. These organizations would be orchestrated by both police offi cers and citizens who are willing to volunteer their time and experiences. With time I would create other organizations that would go to our schools or that would be part of the curriculum. 4. What specifi c skills do you bring to the position? See question one. 5. How do you plan to balance the needs of the police department with the needs of the taxpayers? The taxpayers must understand the reason taxes are paid. We pay taxes to help maintain the various departments within the town, including the police department. The police have many needs that must be maintained. Police vehicles must be kept up, and that costs a lot of money. The offi cers must be paid along with the dispatchers and secretaries. Then comes the supplies, such as paper, pens, ink for printers, the list goes on — too many to list here but I think you get the picture. At the end of the year if there's any money left over, I think the money can or should be used to replace anything the police chief thinks the department needs. If there are no needs at that time it should go into an interest-bearing account and

used later or given back to the town to be used elsewhere. Or donated to a children's fund. 6. What should the police department do with money left over in its budget at the end of the year? See question five. 7. Do you think crime is a big problem in Conway? In a word, yes. Crime has risen 50 percent or more since I have lived in Conway (10 years). I moved here in 2001. I moved from California to get away from the high crime of that state because my sister Judy told me crime was very low here. Vandalism, drugs, drunk driving and domestic violence are up. We as human beings must deter this type of behavior. We must be able to live with each other in harmony if there's ever to be peace. 8. Do you think the police department is too small, about right or too big? Too small. 9. What improvements, if any, would you like to see at the police department? I would like to have an addition built onto the station. I've designed an L-shaped building to be added to the existing building. Starting at the sections that houses the garage now. First section will house an offi ce with at least 10 cubicles so that each offi cer will have their own desk. Second section will house separate (male and female) locker rooms with enclosed showers. The third and last section will be the new full service garage. I would also like to see six police offi cers on patrol on all three shifts, with two additional offi cers at the station to book prisoners, so the arresting officers can go right back on patrol after delivering their prisoners. That would be eight officers per shift. (Editor's note: There are currently between two and fi ve offi cers on during any given shift.) We also need some more unmarked vehicle for undercover work. 10. Have you ever been convicted of a crime? If yes please elaborate. (Editor's note: Mazmanian chose not to answer this question, calling it biased.)

EMAIL from page one

Recently, delegation chair Betsey Patten (R-Moultonborough) took issue with freshmen representatives Frank McCarthy (R-Conway) and Rep. Norman Tregenza (R-Silver Lake) for distributing ideas for cutting the budget by e-mail instead of presenting them at a public meeting. The e-mails

went to several of the delegation members. Long time Rep. David Babson (R-Ossipee) questioned if e-mails passed between only a few of the 14 legislators would become public documents. "Representative Babson has been here since Moby Dick was a guppy and he's not sure what the rules, regulations and the laws are," said McCarthy. "How

can you expect freshman to know?" McCarthy suggested the county to put together an information book to explain the rules. Other New Hampshire counties do that, said McCarthy who wished he was informed of the problem earlier. Patten warned that when e-mails are sent to a quorum, than it forms a meeting if

someone responds. Then, the information becomes public. Patten responded to the situation by printing the e-mails and notifying the public of their existence. "I understand that the new members don't understand 91-A (Right To Know law)," said Patten. "However, just because you don't understand does not mean I don't understand."

County watchdog Henry Spencer, of Efﬁ ngham, said he was particularly troubled by Tregenza's memo, which asks recipients to notify him if the e-mail is sent to anyone outside the delegation. "That strikes me as rampant disregard for public awareness," said Spencer. Patten asked Spencer to give her a chance to educate the new mem-

bers about the Right To Know law. Both e-mails concerned reducing the nursing home's overtime budget. Both representatives said they belief the $330,000 budget is excessive. Both men questioned a staffi ng practice at the nursing home that allows union members to bump per diem workers out of shifts. When there is an unfi lled shift, it may be fi lled by a per diem worker. However, a union member can bump the per diem worker out if he or she wants overtime. In his email, Tregenza noted that overtime would be twice as expensive for the county than a per diem worker. In addition, Tregenza also called for laying off two sheriff's office employees. Tregenza accused former commissioner Chip Albee of allowing the bumping practice to be codifi ed in the contract. "Although we (the delegation) cannot be re-dact the contract, we are in a position to make it clear to the commissioners that such a violation of the taxpayer's will not be permitted again." But nursing home administrator Sandi McKenzie said bumping wasn't in the contract. It had just become practice. McKenizie said she's been bringing down overtime costs over the years. She's asking for a particularly large amount this year because of the transition to the new nursing home, which will take place late this summer. She said the advantage of giving employees overtime is that it provides continuity of care for residents. But the nursing home also uses highly trained per diem workers too. Bumping doesn't happen often, she said. "We aren't dealing with widgets," said Mckenzie. "We're dealing with human individuals." A majority of delegation members agreed that McKenzie was doing a fi ne job with her department. They agreed to leave the overtime budget alone. The delegation simply cut $250,000 out of the county's $25.9 milsee EMAIL page 18

any given day we may have 20,000 people in Conway.” The infrastructure needs for the town are far greater than a similarly populated town that isn’t a destination. The 10,000 mark, “although it’s interesting to note,” he said, “is certainly not the design number.” At the precincts there could have been impacts, but they got the work done in time and now are just watching the number ﬂoat past. “We’re good to go,” said Bill Hounsell, who’s worked with the water and sewer precincts to build out their infrastructure. The 10,000 number means the precincts will become ineligible for certain U.S. Department of Agriculture Rural Development loans, but almost all the infrastructure projects that would be eligible are already in the works. The precincts already took advantage of the rural designation. And the only project that hasn’t started will still be considered rural.

lion budget. They let the commission determine where the cut should come. The new total is nearly $25.7 million. "Two years ago, the commission and the delegation realized that over time money was totally out of control," said Rep. Karen Umberger (R-Kearsarge.) "In the time Sandi has been here, she has truly made remarkable progress in reducing that cost. So, I don't think it's our business to micromanage how Sandi works her overtime... I trust very strongly what she's doing." McCarthy's e-mail called for cutting the nursing overtime budget to a total of $100,000. McCarthy appealed for seven votes. McCarthy wrote he would only make the motion to cut the money if he had the votes to get it passed. "As cautioned by Rep. (Gene) Chandler, if the votes are not there I will not make the motion," wrote McCarthy who added Chandler planned to be absent on Monday. McCarthy defended his e-mail and Tregenza's e-mail in a recent letter to the editor. He said both did not go to a quorum. Further, the right to Know Law would not apply to a caucus — basically a group of elected ofﬁcials from the same party

Only the precinct’s upgrades in Bartlett have yet to begin, he said, but that work will be based on Bartlett’s population numbers. Essentially, he said, the change will have no effect. Police chief Ed Wagner had a similar perspective. The department’s statistics may be grouped with some of the larger towns, but operationally the change doesn’t matter.

But McCarthy wrote had his e-mail reached a quorum of delegation members, he would have made it public. At the time of the meeting, Patten didn't think the caucus rule applied when the representatives were doing county business. From the audience, Albee accused Tregenza of "slander" for saying he signed a contract that took advantage of taxpayers. Albee said since he left ofﬁ ce, he's now a private citizen, who doesn't have a seat at the table to defend himself. "Madam chairman (Patten), you need to school your representatives in slanderous use of a private citizen's name," said Albee. "If he wants to address something a board of commissioners did, that's perfectly alright. I'm now a private citizen and I'm not going to be subjected to him slandering me or making some sort of assertion about what I do."

Dr. Kustan is new radiologist at Memorial Hospital CONWAY — Memorial Hospital announced today the appointment of John A. Kustan, MD, as the Hospital’s new radiologist. “We are very pleased to welcome Dr. Kustan to Memorial Hospital. He joins a remarkable Imaging team that is both competent and caring,” said Scott McKinnon, Memorial’s president and CEO. “Dr. Kustan represents the highest levels of care and service in this area of specialty care,” said Ray Rabideau, MD, Memorial’s chief of medicine. Radiology is a very difﬁ cult discipline to master in terms of the large repertory of medical knowledge that is required in multiple medical specialties (including: internal medicine, surgery, anatomy, and physiology). It can also be challenge to keep up with the latest trends in the most current modalities for multiple specialties,” said Rabideau. “We are very pleased to offer valley residents the level of experience and expertise that Dr. Kustan brings to Memorial Hospital.” “I am very impressed that Memorial Hospital offers the expertise and state-ofthe-art technology to provide nearly 100 percent of whatever care is required in the primary and sub-specialty areas, and

patients won't fi nd more up-to-date imaging equipment anywhere else in the valley,” said Kustan. “There is also a great deal of personal interaction between caregiver and patient at Memorial and it is a pleasure hearing first-hand from patients that they really appreciate the level of care they are receiving,” said Kustan. “I also find Memorial staff to be friendly, personable, down to earth and very caring, said Kustan. “I’ve never been more warmly welcomed.” “A radiologist is a physician who has specialized training in obtaining and interpreting medical images, correlating medical image findings with other examinations and tests, making recommendations for further examinations or treatments, and conferring with physicians who send patients to the radiology department for tests. “Radiologists also treat diseases using (radiation or nuclear medicine) or using minimally invasive, image-guided surgery (interventional radiology).

Skin Tags Up to one-quarter of all adults develop skin tags, which are small, polyp-appearing ﬂ aps of skin. These extremely common skin manifestations are not cancerous, nor are they precancerous. They are, however, often a source of concern for patients and are a common reason patients seek a medical evaluation. Considering this fact, ski tags are worth recognizing and understanding. Also known as acrochordons, skin tags typically start to grow when patients are in their second decade of life. Typically the speed with which they develop, and the number of tags that grow, increases as the patients age. This phenomenon continues until patients are in their 50s, after which no further tags develop in the great majority of patients. The tags that have grown, however, do not regress, rather remain, sometimes leading to discomfort. The most common areas for skin tags to grow are in the groin and around the neck. Because these grow in the aforementioned locations, irritation is not uncommon given the skin contact with clothing, jewelry, etc. It is not uncommon for tags to become so irritated and inﬂamed that they require removal. Removal of skin tags is straightforward and quick. While some patients take it upon themselves to remove tags, the risk of infection and/or discomfort from improper technique should lead all patients desiring removal to seek proper medical attention. Some tags can be surgically removed without any local anesthesia (i.e. lidocaine), but often a small injection of lidocaine is

employed to minimize Dr. Brian Irwin discomfort. Using a scapel, surgical shears or an electrocautery pen, infl amed or “in-the-way” tags can be eradicated in just a few minutes. The exact cause of skin tags in unknown, however it’s likely that a genetic predisposition allows them to prosper. Interestingly, medical literature has been published that suggests skin tags may be more prevalent in those patients who metabolize ingested carbohydrates less effi ciently. Given the fact that carbohydrates are broken down into sugars, a poor ability to break down these products is one of the metabolic derangements seen in diabetic patients. As such, skin tags are theorized to be a marker for prediabetes and diabetes. Although skin tags aren’t technically polyps, the possible correlation between tags and other types of polyps has also been studied. Fortunately no relationship has been identifi ed that connects skin tags and colon polyps, the latter of which can be a risk factor for colon cancer in select instances. Skin tags are a minor condition, but may occur in connection with other medical issues. If you have skin tags you’d like removed, make an appointment with your PCP. If you don’t care to have them removed, it’s still worth discussing them with your doctor, as you may want to consider having some routine diabetic screening performed. Dr. Brian Irwin is a family physician at Tamworth Family Medicine, a division of Huggins Hospital.

RADIOLOGIST from page 19

He attended college at Pennsylvania State University and Temple Medical School and completed an internship at the University of Pennsylvania and a fellowship at Boston University in orthopedic and body imaging. “I aspired to becoming a medical doctor ever since middle school and throughout high school and college where I majored in pre-med and biology. Later, I became dedicated to the idea of becoming a radiologist during medical school where I completed radiology rotations during three out of four years of rotations in various specialty areas,” said Kustan. When asked what has been one of the single most important motivators in his choice of a career, Dr. Kustan indicates that it was, perhaps, “growing up in St. Clair, Penn., a coal mining town where a high percentage of the population lives below the poverty level.” “Having grown up in an area where there is a great deal of poverty, the idea of getting a good education held the promise of providing a way out.” Dr. Kustan, who has re-located to the valley from Boston with his wife, Belinda, said he has been coming to the valley to enjoy recreational pursuits over a 20 year period. "I am very pleased to reside fulltime in the Valley and to be a member of Memorial’s imaging staff who are highly respected for their emphasis on quality, efﬁ ciency and safety; for fostering high levels of teamwork and cooperation; and delivering the highest levels of patient care,” said Kustan. I am very proud to be on their team.”

“In the last two decades, the technology has expanded to include ultrasound imaging (use of sound waves), CT Scans, PETCT scans and other forms of nuclear medicine (uses radioactive substances), mammograms and MRIs,” said Kustan. “In radiology, there are a many consultative tests that are required (matching tests with a specifi c disease) which makes exceptional teamwork an important requirement,” Kustan said. “One of the most important aspects of getting settled in my new position has been the opportunity to get to know Memorial’s fine technologists. They are very competent and are cross-trained in multiple modalities such as obtaining X-Rays, CT Scans, and mammograms. In the operating theatre, they also know how to operate the fl uoroscopy equipment where you can image in real time,” he said. Before coming to Memorial Hospital, Dr. Kustan worked for a nation-wide tele-radiology service for eight years, and was a radiologist at Brigham & Women’s Hospital for eight years, and at Boston University for 10 years. He served as instructor in radiology at Harvard Medical School from 2000 to 2002; as clinical assistant professor of radiology at Boston University School of Medicine from July 1991 to June 1995; and as an instructor in radiology at Boston University from 1989 through June 1991. Dr. Kustan was chief resident of diagnostic radiology at Saint Barnabas Medical Center in New Jersey in 1987.

Workplace Wellness How do you define wellness? Surprisingly, there isn’t a universally accepted defi nition for wellness. In most good attempts to defi ne wellness there are general characteristics. First, health risks are identifi ed by a scientifi cally designed assessment tool usually in the format of a questionnaire. Once health risks are identifi ed healthful changes are made to positively impact health and prevent chronic disease. Workplace wellness programs are designed to nurture wellness in employees, regardless of the work environment. Wellness programs can be found in factories, corporate offi ces, large corporations, and small corporations alike. Indisputably, wellness programs benefi t employers and employees. Numerous studies have found a direct link, showing healthy employees are happier, and more productive. Having a workplace wellness program boosts morale, improves health and fi tness and increases productivity. Workplace wellness programs are a long-term investment and require monitoring and periodic adjustments. Programs that get mediocre results are the ones that are left to run on autopilot. Workplace wellness programs come in all shapes and sizes but the most successful share fi ve components. That’s why it’s critical for workplace wellness programs to: 1. Know your enemy. You have to know what’s driving your largest health care claim costs — both among employees and their dependents. This provides the information needed to develop tar-

geted workplace wellness programs. 2. Develop realistic workplace wellness program expectations. With wellness, what you give is what you get and almost always depends on planning and communicating with participants and the provider. 3. Maintain strong workplace wellness program communications. Workplace wellness programs that achieve the greatest success are those which are communicate aggressively from the get go and are sustained. Remember repetition is your friend when doing employee education. 4. Integrate workplace wellness with other beneﬁ ts. Connecting your employee assistance program with your a workplace wellness program makes sense. Consider issues like absenteeism, disability and worker’s compensation as pieces of the wellness equation. 5. Practice what you preach. The key to ensuring employee buy-in is for employers to lead the workplace wellness program by setting a positive example. When upper-level managers are unwilling to participate and address their own health issues, don’t expect many employees to take the workplace wellness program seriously. Find out if your employer offers a workplace wellness program. If your employer doesn’t offer one, ask if there is one available. Recently, the Maine Educators Association Beneﬁ ts Trust has implemented an exciting workplace wellness program for Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield subscribers. see WELLNESS page 23

Write Now! Conference at Kennett to feature national reading, writing expert CONWAY — Reading out loud helps acquaint students with the ways writers use language, says acclaimed author and consultant Lester Laminack. Educators at all grade levels, writers, parents, and college and graduate students are invited to join him at the annual Write Now! Conference on the Teaching of Writing at Kennett High School on Saturday, April 9, where he will discuss "Cracking Open the Author's Craft: Using Read Alouds for Learning Across Content Areas." The conference, presented by SAU 9 and the Arts Alliance of Northern New Hampshire, takes place from 9 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. in the Lloynd Auditorium at Kennett, with book sales beginning at 8:15 a.m. The conference is dedicated to the memory and legacy of Donald Graves. Praised by co-authors like Katie Wood Ray and Georgia Heard, Laminack is often called "the best speaker I ever heard" by teachers who attend his workshops. This is his ﬁ rst visit to northern New Hampshire. Laminack will discuss the importance of making read alouds an essential part of each day. He will focus on a handful of essential skills and strategies for making read aloud experiences valuable across disciplines. "Lester Laminack's passion for books and kids is contagious," says Penny Kittle, professional development coordinator for the

Conway School District and herself a well-known author. "Every time I hear him speak I want to be a better teacher. He has taught me to read with an eye on writer's craft, and to help students notice and learn from authors. I can't wait for this conference!" A full-time writer and consultant to schools throughout the U. S., Laminack is the author of numerous professional and children's books including Learning Under the Inﬂuence of Language and Literature: Making the Most of Read-Alouds Across the Day; Reading Aloud Across the Curriculum: How to Build Bridges in Language Arts, Math, Science, and Social Studies; Climb Inside a Poem (with Georgia Heard); and The Writing Workshop: Working Through the Hard Parts (with Katie Wood Ray). He is also the author of manychildren's books, including Snow Day! and Three Hens and a Peacock. He is Professor Emeritus at Western Carolina University. "We know we are asking teachers to give up a Saturday," says Frumie Selchen, executive director of the Arts Alliance, "but we also wanted to encourage participation by parents and others who might otherwise not be able to attend. This is a wonderful opportunity to learn from an inspiring expert and also to broaden the conversation about teaching writing to include the home and out-of-school programs."

Pancake breakfast at Joshiah Bartlett Elementary School on April 9 Recently, I was thinking what fun it would be to attend a wedding. I really love weddings, but it has been quite a while since I was invited to one. Growing up, I had the opportunity to be the flower girl in my sister’s wedding, maid of honor for two really good friends and a bridesmaid twice as well. Four out of the five couples are still married today. In today’s society, that is amazing. One of my favorite movies is called "27 dresses." This movie makes me laugh every time I watch it. Like the woman in this movie, I kept my dresses from these weddings for years. One day, when I finally realized I would never wear them again, to the dump they went. I look forward to the day my

Souper Supper at Parsonsfield Seminary April 8 It was reported at last night’s selectmen’s meeting that our community is doing much to help the Hale family whose house was destroyed by fi re. Currently, a spaghetti dinner fund raiser is being planned for April 29. The venue for the event is still being worked out, but the date is set. More on this as it is fi rmed up. The parentteacher organization is taking the lead on this particular effort and is also going to hold raffl e donations for which would be appreciated. The raffl e’s theme is summer, so any items from flip fl ops to weekend stays at a campground are all possibilities: use your imagination. You can call either 986-8957 or 7307908 to contact members of the parent-teacher organization. Another option for those who understand that the Hale family could still use some immediate help is contacting the Abundant Harvest Church at 473-8914 or mail a donation to Abundant Harvest Church, P.O. Box 116, Union, NH, 03887. You can also call the Potter family at 7993137 in the evening between 7 and 9 p.m. They live across the street and offered the update received at the selectmen’s

meeting. As essential as timely basic fi nancial and practical support is to any family whose entire home has been destroyed is it is also true that discovering and experiencing the depth of generosity offered by a supportive community will bring another kind of warmth and sustenance. A town or community is not defi ned by lines on a map but springs from the heart of those who have, are and will offer some of what they have to help others; many thanks to those who already have. On Friday, April 15, the Effi ngham Historical Society will be hosting Ms. Carol Foord’s portrayal of Dolly Copp starting at 7:30 p.m. at the society’s building on the corner of Old Pound and Route 153. The evening’s entertainment will be followed by refreshments and conversation. Ms Foord has previously portrayed Molly Ockett; an evening well spent by those attending. April 15’s entertainment promises to be a wonderful second engagement. The society would also like to announce the availability of their annual $500 scholarship for a student from Effingham and one from Parsonfi eld. It is open to any student

going to attend college, technical school or career school. Applications must be in by April 15. You can call 539-4071 for more information. Don’t forget this Friday night’s ParSem Souper Supper to be held at the ParSem building on Route 160. There will be lots of comfort food, friends in abundance, laughter, conversation and dessert too, all for just $8. The evening starts at 6:30 p.m., ingestion and digestion of said meal will take a while so bring lots of room. A brief list of homemade soups: large noodle old fashioned chicken noodle, enough clam chowder to ﬂ oat a boat, "ear-ily" good corn chowder, chill defying chili and the attendant green salads, corn bread, rolls, biscuits and gingerbread with whipped cream, cookies and drinks to tamp it all down: all this and entertainment by Puckerbrush too. Eight bucks will never be better spent. For more information call 539-5233 or (207) 793-8519. The Conservation Commission’s annual cleanup day will be April 23. More on this next week, but mark the day off on the calendar now. Remember it comes with a cookout if you help out.

Hannah Hill (left) is having a big sophomore season on the mound for Seton Hall. (COURTESY PHOTO)

Hannah Hill named to the Big East Weekly Honor Roll PROVIDENCE, R.I. — Sophomore pitcher Hannah Hill (Fryeburg) and freshman third baseman Meredith Henze (Elkton, Md.) were named to the BIG EAST Weekly Honor Roll. The duo helped the Seton Hall softball team go 4-1 and win the fi rst Seton Hall Pirate Classic. Hill, the daughter of Sue and Jon Hill, was named Most Outstanding Pitcher of the tournament after going a perfect 3-0 with a 1.00 ERA. The former Fryeburg Academy standout and Maine Player of the Year had a no-hitter going until the sixth inning in her fi rst start of the weekend against Manhattan. Hill ended up just giving up one infi eld single and an unearned run while striking out four in a 2-1 victory over the Jaspers. She followed with a career-best eight strikeout performance and surrendered just two earned runs in seven innings in a 4-3 win over Lafayette. In the champion-

ship game, Hill took the ball and gave up just one run on six hits in another complete-game victory. Henze was named MVP after batting .583 (7-for-12) with two homers and fi ve RBI. Both of Henze’s long balls came in a thrilling 4-3 victory over Lafayette on Saturday. Her fi rst collegiate home run was a solo shot that tied the game at 1-1 in the third inning. With the Pirates trailing by a run in the bottom of the seventh, the Henze crushed a 3-2 pitch over the wall in centerfi eld for a walk-off win. In the championship game of the tournament against Sacred Heart, the third baseman went 3-for-3 from the dish, including a RBI single in the second inning that gave Seton Hall the lead. USF freshman Stephanie Medina was named the BIG EAST Player of the Week, while Louisville junior Tori Collins earned BIG EAST Pitcher of the Week honors.

Several members of the Mt. Washington Valley Youth Hockey Association participated in the Second Annual Granite State County Cup played in Exeter last weekend. Participating on the Squirt teams were (left to right) Trevor Olivier, Kobi Lees, Trevor LaRusso, Bobby “The Cobra” LeBlanc, Shane Bush, Reilly Murphy and Chet Johnston. Representing the MWV Mites were Colby Hall, Colby Olivier and Shane Johnston. (PAT MURPHY PHOTO)

DILBERT

by Darby Conley

By Holiday Mathis SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You are sensitive to the feelings of others; therefore, people open up around you. What you learn because of this may be surprising or even shocking. You will keep a sacred trust. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Prepare for an upcoming meeting as though you are practicing for a game. Rehearse what you’ll say. Play out different scenarios, and try to guess how the other person will react. Plan your countermove. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19 ). You take care to make others feel comfortable around you. When someone new enters your realm, you’ll immediately initiate a connection. Through your example, you’ll teach good manners to an ill-mannered world. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You may start out less conﬁ dent than you could be. A pep talk in the mirror will be in order. With a little extra attention to your image, you’ll come across better than you thought you could. PISCES (Feb. 19 -March 20). Your many responsibilities will require you to be outgoing. Your heart remains light, even as you deliver a substantial message. You will smile and laugh your way to a successful outcome. TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (April 7). Your eye-on-the-prize mentality will serve you well. Stay on track, and you will soon accomplish what you set out to do. In June, you’ll win one prize and be ready for a change. A new study, hobby or activity will strike your fancy. Shared adventure bonds you with a sweetie in July. August brings career luck. Aquarius and Scorpio people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 9, 12, 41, 25 and 3.

Get Fuzzy

HOROSCOPE ARIES (March 21-April 19 ). Your agenda may not be so easily sold on its own. But when you piggyback your plan with one that is already positioned to succeed, you’ll have a smash hit on your hands. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). The same guidelines that were put in place to keep order and create safety are now stifl ing your freedom and limiting your joy. Investigate to see whether rules can be broken or bent to suit you. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You have an appropriate command of your space. You send all the right signals so that others come close when you need them to hear and see you and stay far away when you prefer to be alone. CANCER (June 22-July 22). The initial impression someone made years ago is still affecting the way you think of this person today. But something will happen to change all of that. Stay open-minded. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You are bright and capable -- a natural choice to lead the group. And yet you may not feel that you want the extra responsibility that comes with the role. You’ll fi nd a way to lead without being the offi cial leader. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You’ll influence those who see you as serious and knowledgeable. To help this image along, move more slowly than everyone else. Your every gesture will seem to have greater importance. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Though you look forward to having downtime when you can recharge your energy, you still have a ways to go. Take short breaks instead of long ones. Distractions abound. Remember what you came to do.

THE CONWAY DAILY SUN, Thursday, April 7, 2011— Page 27

Today is Thursday, April 7, the 97th day of 2011. There are 268 days left in the year. Today’s Highlight in History: On April 7, 1862, Union forces led by General Ulysses S. Grant defeated the Confederates at the Battle of Shiloh in Tennessee. On this date: In 1788, an expedition led by Gen. Rufus Putnam established a settlement at presentday Marietta, Ohio. In 1798, the Mississippi Territory was created by an act of Congress, with Natchez as the capital. In 1927, the image and voice of Commerce Secretary Herbert Hoover were transmitted live from Washington to New York in the fi rst successful long-distance demonstration of television. In 1939, Italy invaded Albania, which was annexed less than a week later. In 1948, the World Health Organization was founded in Geneva. In 1949, the Rodgers and Hammerstein musical “South Pacifi c” opened on Broadway. In 1953, the U.N. General Assembly elected Dag Hammarskjold (dahg HAWM’ahr-shoold) of Sweden to be secretary-general. In 1969, the Supreme Court, in Stanley v. Georgia, unanimously struck down laws prohibiting private possession of obscene material. In 1978, President Jimmy Carter announced he was deferring development of the neutron bomb, a high-radiation weapon. In 1983, space shuttle astronauts Story Musgrave and Don Peterson took the first U.S. space walk in almost a decade as they worked in the open cargo bay of Challenger for nearly four hours. One year ago: North Korea said it had convicted and sentenced an American man to eight years in a labor prison for entering the country illegally and unspecified hostile acts. (Aijalon Mahli Gomes (EYE’-jah-lahn MAH’-lee gohms) was freed in August 2010 after former U.S. President Jimmy Carter secured his release.) Today’s Birthdays: Actor R.G. Armstrong is 94. Sitar player Ravi Shankar is 91. Actor James Garner is 83. Country singer Cal Smith is 79. Actor Wayne Rogers is 78. Media commentator Hodding Carter III is 76. Country singer Bobby Bare is 76.

Help Wanted by Abigail Van Buren

GIRL’S PROMISCUITY IS NO CAUSE FOR MOTHER’S PRIDE

DEAR ABBY: I’m the mother of two boys who are 12 and 13. The letter from “Terrified for My Niece in the Southwest” (Feb. 16) horrified me. The aunt who wrote the letter said her sister “bragged” about how popular her 14-year-old daughter is because she gives oral sex to the boys. Is this the kind of girl my sons are exposed to at school? I know kids are curious and experiment at this age, but it’s disturbing that the mother of this girl doesn’t see that her actions are dangerous and can lead to more serious sexual situations. If she were MY niece, I would speak up and let Mom know exactly how I felt in hopes that she would recognize how inappropriate her daughter’s actions are. Pregnancy can become a harsh reality to a parent who was blind to the seriousness of her child’s actions. -- YVETTE IN RANCHO SANTA MARGARITA, CALIF. DEAR YVETTE: Thank you for writing. Many readers were equally disturbed by that letter, and a few even questioned its authenticity. I spoke to the aunt who wrote the letter. She verifi ed that she had written it and everything she said was true. Perhaps the following responses will serve as a wake-up call for teens AND parents: DEAR ABBY: I have been a criminal investigator for more than 38 years and can state with certainty that having sex with Naomi is a FELONY in most, if not all, states, particularly if the boy is over the age of 16. At 14, this girl is not able to give consent. What is happening is considered an act of rape, even if it is voluntary on her part. Someone needs to intervene NOW before some “innocent” boy gets charged with a crime. I’ve handled too many cases where boys have been charged with rape when the girl

gets angry at him for almost no reason. The welfare of all the children is at stake! -- “SNOOPER” IN WISCONSIN DEAR ABBY: This letter literally makes the hair on the back of my neck stand up when I think about a mother who would actually BRAG about something like this to family and do nothing about it. That mother is in desperate need of counseling, and Naomi is in desperate need of guidance because, obviously, she’s not getting any from her mom. I wonder if her dad has any idea what’s going on? -- A MOM IN GREAT FALLS, MONT. DEAR ABBY: “Terrifi ed’s” niece is being sexually abused. It would be particularly egregious if her partners are 18 or older. For her mother to crow about her daughter’s exploits makes her an unfi t parent. “Terrifi ed” needs to take a fi rm stand with her sister, and if she is ignored, the authorities should be contacted. -- MIKE IN NEW YORK DEAR ABBY: This girl’s mother is abdicating her responsibilities as a parent and indirectly condoning and encouraging her daughter’s promiscuous behavior. The emotional damage could be irreparable. Naomi is being used and abused by any young man with whom she is involved. The aunt should talk to her sister and, if there is a father in the house, he needs to know about his daughter. In my opinion, that mother wants her daughter to be popular for all the wrong reasons. Mom sounds like someone who sat on the sidelines in high school and never understood that what makes a person popular is the ability to carry on an intelligent conversation, get good grades, provide community service and so on. Pity! -- BARBARA IN KALAMAZOO, MICH.

Dear Abby is written by Abigail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips. Write Dear Abby at: Dear Abby, c/o The Conway Daily Sun, PO Box 1940, North Conway, NH 03860
