Phil Campbells gather in town of same name

PHIL CAMPBELL, Ala. (NY Times) — Phil Campbell, a writer from Brooklyn, is in love with this little three-stoplight town. So is Phil Campbell from Wisconsin. And Phil Campbell from England.

There are 18 Phil Campbells here this weekend. No Phyllis Campbells, though, a frustration to the organizers who have been planning for months to descend on Phil Campbell as it celebrates its centennial.

The whole idea started as a joke, really — a weekend romp to rural northern Alabama for people who share a name and, clearly, a sense of humor.

Then, on April 27, one of the strongest tornadoes on record tore though town. It killed 26 people. That’s a lot of death to absorb, but even more so when a community had only 1,100 people to begin with.

Overnight, the Phil Campbell convention became a relief effort. Word went out to the 190 Phil and Phyllis Campbells on the Facebook page Brooklyn Phil started, in an age when the marriage between narcissism and technology has become everyday. Twitter accounts were established. Money was raised. The “I’m with Phil” campaign was born.

Defying military crackdown, protesters surge across Syria

Japan strains to fix reactor damaged before earthquake

BEIRUT (NY Times) — Thousands of protesters poured into the streets of the capital’s suburbs and three of Syria’s five largest cities Friday, in a weekly show of defiance that came days before President Bashar al-Assad was expected to address Syrians for the first time in two months. Activists said at least 19 people were killed and dozens wounded.

Security forces fired on pro-

testers in Homs, one of Syria’s most restive locales, and the police and protesters fought in Deir al-Zour, a large city in the east. But thousands were permitted to demonstrate in Kiswa, a town south of Damascus, where demonstrators carried banners that read, “Leave!” and “The people want the fall of the regime.”

Some opposition figures had speculated that the govern-

ment might try to bring down a death toll that surged past 100 on one Friday in anticipation of Mr. Assad’s speech, which may come as early as Sunday.

Syrian officials have portrayed the address as significant, though many in the opposition said their expectations were low.

As the day wore on, the toll approached 22, the number killed last Friday.

Memory implant gives rats sharper recollection

Saturday High: 74 Record: 97 (1994) Sunrise: 5:01 a.m.

Experience is simply the name we give our mistakes.”

—Oscar Wilde

(NY Times) — Scientists have designed a brain implant that restored lost memory function and strengthened recall of new information in laboratory rats — a crucial first step in the development of so-called neuroprosthetic devices to repair deficits from dementia, stroke and other brain injuries in humans.

Though still a long way from being tested in humans, the implant demonstrates for the first time that a cognitive function can be improved with a device that mimics the firing patterns of neurons. In recent years neuroscientists have developed implants that allow paralyzed people to

move prosthetic limbs or a computer cursor, using their thoughts to activate the machines. In the new work, being published Friday, researchers at Wake Forest University and the University of Southern California used some of the same techniques to read neural activity. But they translated those signals internally, to improve brain function rather than to activate outside appendages.

“It’s technically very impressive to pull something like this off, given our current level of technology,” said Daryl Kipke, a professor of bioengineering at the University of Michigan who was not involved in the experiment.

TSURUGA, Japan (NY Times) — Three hundred miles southwest of Fukushima, at a nuclear reactor perched on the slopes of this rustic peninsula, engineers are engaged in another precarious struggle.

Local men fished near the Monju nuclear power plant in Tsuruga, Japan.

The Monju prototype fastbreeder reactor — a long-troubled national project — has been in a precarious state of shutdown since a 3.3-ton device crashed into the reactor’s inner vessel, cutting off access to the plutonium and uranium fuel rods at its core.

Engineers have tried repeatedly since the accident last August to recover the device, which appears to have gotten stuck. They will make another attempt as early as next week.

But critics warn that the recovery process is fraught with dangers because the plant uses large quantities of liquid sodium, a highly flammable substance, to cool the nuclear fuel.

Dedication held for Old Man of the Mountain Memorial

BY TOM EASTMAN

–––– and Spa ––––

THE CONWAY DAILY SUN

FRANCONIA — “Good night, boss.”

That’s what former White Mountains Attractions Association president Dick Hamilton used to say as he drove by the Old Man of the Mountain every night on his way home to Littleton from work in North Woodstock.

That’s now the same salute of respect on the commemorative granite paver that Hamilton, his wife Sandy and family members Lisa, Trevor and Scott have had placed at the Old Man of the Mountain Memorial that was dedicated by Hamilton and state officials Sunday afternoon.

“That’s how I felt about him,” said Hamilton after the ceremonies, as clouds and a light smattering of rain whipped around the rock face above on Cannon Mountain where the iconic granite face fell on May 3, 2003.

A White Mountain history enthusiast, Hamilton, now retired, was often known as “Mr. Tourism” during his years at the helm of White Mountain Attractions.

He now heads the Old Man of the Mountain Legacy Fund memorial effort, which is still $3 million short of its goal.

The memorial is being built at Franconia State Park without state or federal funds.

Granite pavers are being sold in amounts beginning at $250 to help raise funds for the memorial.

Sunday marked the opening of the

first phase, as work will continue as more pavers are sold.

The memorial incorporates the use of seven towers, on whose south side is chiseled profiled parts which when properly viewed from set vantage points on the plaza, provide a view against the sky which is meant to bring back the image of the Old Man himself. The plaza also contains specific areas on which viewers may stand, depending on their height, to ensure that they will align themselves to get the best view.

The sky is the limit for local twirler Katie Little

BY SHANNON REVILLE THE CONWAY DAILY SUN

Katie Little, who just completed her senior year at Kennett High School, is a lifelong baton twirler. She performed at football and basketball halftime shows and on stage at other events.

In an effort to bring twirling to the valley, she is currently teaching a few youngsters at her home in Jackson.

How long have you been baton twirling?

I started when I was 4. And I’ve been doing it ever since, so that’s 14 years.

Where do you do it?

My team is out of Derry, that’s where I moved here from last fall. I wouldn’t say it’s a club; it’s just like any other sports team. We’re called the Red Star Twirlers.

Is it all girls?

Yes, except for one little boy. He is 7, I think. There are a lot of boy twirlers out there, and some are better than girls.

Is this something that you will continue doing after high school?

I plan on doing it in college. A lot of girls from my team do that and then come back and help out with the Red Stars.

Where are you going to school?

Susquehanna University, and I will be twirling there for like basketball and football games. And I might be a part of their dance team.

So you already know that you’ll be twirling for them?

Yep. I talked to them on the phone.

I mean, I will have to try out still and show them a routine, but yeah, I will.

Where is Susquehanna University?

It is in Selinsgrove, Pennsylvania.

What will you be studying?

I am doing in undecided but I am pretty sure I will do physical therapy.

So what would you like to do with baton twirling someday?

I definitely want to open up my own team and coach it. Well, like, coach as a side job. I don’t know, that’s just

Katie Little at halftime of a Kennett High basketball game this winter. (JAMIE GEMMITI PHOTO)

what I have always wanted to do.

Probably something small, but I just want to have the chance to help girls out like my coach has helped me.

Has your coach had the biggest influence on you regarding baton twirling?

Yeah, her name is Keri-Ann Lynch.

She is my assistant coach, and I have known her for probably eight years.

She has accomplished everything I ever have wanted to accomplish. She has done it for a while, and everything she does with it is what I would like to someday do.

How often do you go down to Derry? see next page

Congrats Stacey Babb we are so proud of you.

We hope all your dreams come true!

Love, Mom, Dana, Keithie and family

Katie Little puts on quite a show. from preceding page

Every Saturday, usually, but during the summer I will be down there more. Practices for our show are like four days a week. I think the show is July 30th. It’s just a big show we do every year.

Has it been difficult having transferred schools this late?

No, not transferring schools. I think that was a good choice, it opened up a lot of opportunities for my family.

But it was definitely hard with baton twirling. It costs a lot to travel down so much. But the team treats me the same, they trust me, and they know I

(JAMIE GEMMITI PHOTO)

will practice and won’t let them down.

If baton twirling was offered in the valley, do you think you would’ve transferred here or continued with Derry?

That’s hard. I mean I have been twirling in Derry for 14 years, so it would be really hard to leave them. I would try to do both, I don’t think they would mind, but I could never stop twirling in Derry.

Do you have any other thoughts about baton twirling that you would like to share?

I teach three little girls around age 7 in Jackson every Friday, so if anyone is interested they should let me know!

Congrats little sis, I am very proud of you!

Love, your big sister Leanda

Decision on KHS graduation at 8 a.m.

BY LLOYD JONES THE CONWAY DAILY SUN

L ove, M om ,D a d, A lexis, C a ssidy, C a therin e a nd B en ja m in

CONWAY — The Kennett High School Class of 2011 will hold its graduation ceremony Saturday at 10 a.m. at the Redstone campus. Now it’s a question of will the weather cooperate allowing for an outdoor ceremony?

Seniors along with school officials are crossing their fingers hoping the pomp and circumstances can take place outdoors in Gary Millen Stadium, although rain could be in the forecast.

School superintendent Carl Nelson will make the call on the location at 8 a.m. Saturday. Parents will be notified of the decision through the automated phone service at the high school. WMWV 93.5 FM will also announce the site over the airwaves after

Nelson notifies the station.

As of yesterday afternoon, the Website accuweather. com was calling for 80 degrees, “a couple of thunderstorms,” while there’s a 29 percent chance of that thunderstorm. Under its hourly forecast, it calls for partly cloudy from 9 to 11 a.m. with showers at noon.

Weather.com, however, is calling for a 40 percent chance of showers with scattered thunderstorms with showers from 9 a.m. through noon.

If the weather holds, between 180-190 Eagles will graduation outdoors. If rain looms, the ceremony will move indoors to the school’s gymnasium.

“We’ve been preparing for both scenarios,” Kennett High principal Neal Moylan said.

Graduation was held outside last year and indoors the year before that.

The Kennett High School Drumline performed during the Special Olympics New Hampshire Summer Games Opening Ceremony on June 3.

This year marked the fourth appearance by the ensemble at this important event. “Community Service is part of the mission statement of Kennett High School,” said KHS Music Director Therese Davison. “This opportunity is an excellent chance for our students to gain performance experience while volunteering for a worthy cause.” Hundreds of athletes marched into the stadium at UNH to the sounds of the Kennett musicians, including Mt. Washington Valley’s own Dolphins Swim Team. Dolphins coach Amanda Edgerly is to be thanked for the invitation. The KHS Drumline plans to continue the tradition every year.

In Memory Of

IN REVIEW NATIONAL PERSPECTIVE

Mitt Romney, Front-Runner So now there is a front-runner. By virtue of mathematics (the money he has raised) and chemistry (the way his rivals treat him), former Gov. Mitt Romney of Massachusetts is the leading candidate for the Republican presidential nomination.

There's danger in that position. The GOP field didn't gang up on Romney in their New Hampshire debate last week, but that's only because many of the candidates are just getting their campaign legs and are breathing the sweet air of being in presidential politics for the first time.

Once they feel their political survival is at stake, their restraint will disappear, and one after another they will send arrows Romney's way. Those arrows will provide opportunities for fellow contenders — and will challenge Romney's mettle, providing evidence that he is strong enough to engage President Barack Obama in the general election or raising questions about his suitability as the party nominee.

Sometimes front-runners stumble. Democrat Gary Hart did in 1988, for example, but Hart's fall was more a matter of personal conduct than political profile.

Hart was in many ways ideally suited for his party at the end of the Reagan era. He was a westerner, an apostle of new ideas, no stranger to military issues, nimble in debates and stentorian on the stump. His fall, after an apparent affair with a young woman, was one of the political benchmarks of the era, removing the press's hesitancy to examine the personal lives of politicians and postponing the Democrats in their effort to sculpt a new image for themselves.

Despite the perils in leading the pack, though, it's a lot better to be the front-runner than one of the other contenders. More often than not, frontrunners prevail and win their party's nomination: Walter F. Mondale in 1984, George H.W. Bush in 1988, Robert J. Dole in 1996, George W. Bush and Albert Gore Jr. in 2000 are among many examples.

This pattern is particularly strong among Republicans, who, at least in presidential politics, are temperamentally more inclined to respect customary lines of authority and the prerogatives of party elders. Three of their last four elected presidents were respected party figures who had run for the White House before, and the fourth (George W. Bush) was the son of a president, the grandson of a senator, the brother of a governor and himself the governor of the largest state headed by a Republican. Indeed, every Republican nominee for the past four decades, with the exception of Bush and Gerald R. Ford, an appointed but incumbent president, had run for president before.

This factor, along with Romney's bulging campaign treasury and the deference the other candidates displayed last week, underlines Romney's position — a position so commanding that he actually out-polled Obama in the latest Washington Post-ABC News Poll. Indeed, Romney has more than four times as much support in New Hampshire as his nearest rival, former New York Mayor Rudolph Giuliani, who isn't even in the race (yet).

New Hampshire is vital for Romney, who owns a vacation home in the state and whose primary residence is in a neighboring state. His defeat there four years ago at the hands of Sen. John McCain represented a substantial repudiation, as Massachusetts

David Shribman

politicians from John F. Kennedy's time on have prevailed in New Hampshire -- including Ambassador Henry Cabot Lodge (1964), who didn't even campaign and managed to beat Sen. Barry Goldwater and Gov. Nelson A. Rockefeller in a remarkable write-in effort, and former Sen. Paul E. Tsongas (1992). The only exception, besides Romney, was Edward M. Kennedy, who was defeated by an incumbent president, Jimmy Carter, in 1980.

This time Romney simply cannot afford to lose the state, especially since he has all but abandoned efforts in Iowa, whose caucuses will precede New Hampshire's primary by eight days. He can explain away a loss in Iowa: He won't have competed, and the contest there is shaping up as a socialconservatism derby that is not to his tastes nor to his strengths. But losing New Hampshire, where he is well-known and where conditions favor him, would be fatal to his presidential hopes — especially since South Carolina, another social-conservative state, is likely to hold the next primary.

Romney was stung in Iowa in 2008 by former Gov. Mike Huckabee of Arkansas, which was bad enough, but losing in his home region to McCain five days later was too much for his campaign to absorb.

The big talk in the last days of spring is the way former Gov. Tim Pawlenty of Minnesota linked Obama's health care plan, which is anathema to Republicans, to Romney's plan in Massachusetts by speaking of "Obamneycare." Pawlenty used the word again at the debate Monday at St. Anselm College, but its long-term effect may be to elevate Romney into a political if not moral equivalent of the president -- not the sort of tactic that always benefits a challenger.

The health care issue underlines Romney's biggest task, which is to counter the notion that he is willing to change his views with the political breezes. His opponents believe he supported legalized abortion and a health care plan in Massachusetts because the political atmosphere in the state demanded it, and that he abandoned those views once he ascertained that the national political atmosphere required him to do so. Then again, he is being pilloried for his failure to change his mind on global warming.

The result is a political conundrum for Romney as great as any front-runner has had since Mondale was tarred as being the instrument of traditional Democratic special interests, especially organized labor. If Romney adjusts his position on global warming, he will be declared an opportunist. If he doesn't, he will be at odds with a major tenet of the modern Republican creed.

Right now Romney is determined to assure that Republicans don't change their minds. He has the biggest advantage in the Gallup poll that any Republican contender has possessed in the race.

That margin will shrink. The story of the 2012 Republican presidential nomination fight will be how much it shrinks, at what rate it shrinks and whether it disappears. Such is the advantage and the danger of front-runner status.

Footprints

One night a man had a dream. He dreamed he was walking along the beach with the LORD. Across the sky flashed scenes from his life. For each scene, he noticed two sets of footprints in the sand; one belonged to him, and the other to the LORD. When the last scene of his life flashed before him, he looked back at the footprints in the sand. He noticed that many times along the path of his life there was only one set of footprints. He also noticed that it happened at the very lowest and saddest times in his life.

This really bothered him and he questioned the LORD about it. “LORD, you said that once I decided to follow you, youʼd walk with me all the way. But I have noticed that during the most troublesome times in my life, there is only one set of footprints. I donʼt understand why when I needed you the most, you would leave me.”

The LORD replied, “My precious, precious child, I love you and I would never leave you. During your times of trial and suffering, when you see only one set of footprints, it was then that I carried you.”

The Broken Chain We little knew that morning that God was going to call your name.

In life we loved you dearly, In death we do the same.

It broke our hearts to lose you, You did not go alone.

For part of us went with you The day God called you home.

You left us peaceful memories, Your love is still our guide, And though we cannot see you, You are always at our side.

Our family chain is broken And nothing seems the same, But as God calls us one by one, The chain will link again.

I LOVE YOU AND MISS YOU, Love, Mom

Steve Dore benefit concert was ‘awesome’ To the editor: Allow me to be the first to comment on the “awesome” show Saturday night at the Fryeburg Fairgrounds. May the Steve Dore Coming Home benefit concert become the closest thing you will ever see to a local “seniors rock concert!” From the huge smiles on the faces of all the musicians to the giant smiles you saw everywhere in the crowd.

From the old home type camaraderie to the crowded dance floor. There were the huge ovations and oh yeah ... there was the music.

The opening band filled the dance floor and enjoyed a tremendous reception.

A mix of experienced local talent kicked off this “awesome” night. The smiles on all your faces showed the excitement of the evening. You all know who you are and we’ll see you on Friday evenings.

I hesitate to mention where, only to ensure that there will be room for me. As someone who would challenge anyone (except girlfriends and wives) for having seen the Blend play more places or more times, the fun was just beginning. As the night continued, I continued to hear the word “awesome” over and over. The spirit of the occasion seemed evident with each old acquaintance you saw. Oh, yeah ... then there was the music.

Though no one could underestimate the individual talents of Steve Dore, he will forever be a part of the Blend in the hearts and minds of many who attended Saturday night.

Please accept that as the compliment that it is. Blend members Steve Dore and Skip Smith both worked for me at StoryLand for several seasons years ago. I lived up the road from Skip and Diane for several years in Kearsarge. My only relationship with homecooked meals during those

years was the invite down the road for dinner. Steve showed his artistic abilities in most everything he has ever done.

I can recall his enthusiasm as he detail painted all the little Indian Heads on each end of the bench seats on all the coach cars of the Story Land trains. Artistic ability!

Through them I became a charter member of the Blend fan club. Skip, Steve, Kennyand JD and DP. Oh, yeah ... and then there was the music.

From some of Steve”s new music, to some crowd pleasing sing-a-Iong tunes the first set set the tone for the dance floor. The mixture of local talent and crowd response made all the smiles get bigger and bigger. Later, the old Blend tunes either widened the smiles or changed shape into the lyric’s that many of us all know. “Long Road” and “I Hope You Find Something,” brought tears to my eyes. The musicians were “awesome” and to paraphrase what Steve said, “Can you imagine if they had time to practice!” Those of you who experienced an “awesome” night could do the same next week in Old Orchard Beach. I hear Steve Dore and the Blend will be there!

As good as the music was, it was more then that. Terrible music couldn’t have taken the smiles off everyone’s faces. This home coming was about the people. We thank you Steve, all the other musicians, and the organizers for a chance to see old friends, hear great music, and see so many smiles. What a refreshing night. Let me be the first to volunteer for the second annual Steve Dore Coming Home Seniors Rock Concert featuring the music and artistic ability of Steve Dore and the music of ‘’the Blend.”

Oh, yeah ... and it was “Awsome!”

Beyond organic: For local gardener, it’s all about community

BY LEE GUERRINGUE THE CONWAY DAILY SUN

CONWAY — Sean Kenney is growing 10 acres of vegetables off West Side Road using a method of farming called permaculture, which is an agricultural philosophy based on sustainable use.

Since moving to the valley eight years ago, Kenney, a former Rhode Island resident, has devoted his time to gardening. This will be his first summer cultivating the 10 acres. He also has greenhouses on the property.

He won’t have a roadside farm stand this summer but he is selling to a few local businesses, including Flatbread and The Local Grocer.

Gardening isn’t a new hobby for Kenny, it’s a lifestyle.

“I’ve always been a gardener, my whole life,” he said.

His grandfather was his gardening influence, he taught him the techniques in a traditional away.

Kenney has since taken a far different approach, attending to the design process of the gardens. Kenney follows the unrefined system of nature itself, building a sustainable environment for the plants.

In 2009, Kenney traveled to Central America, constructing sustainable gardens for local communities in countries such as Costa Rica.

He helped build permaculture gardens with farmers who previously had trouble maintaining a steady

source of produce. By building these gardens, the farmers are now growing pesticide-free, natural foods that are more healthful and cost effective.

Permaculture is a big idea in agriculture that started in the 1960s.

The goal of permaculture is to create stable, productive systems that provide for human needs, harmoniously

integrating the land with the people who live on it.

At his own 10-acre garden, Kenney grows a mix of vegetables and a wide array of Asian and salad greens. He does not have any fruit or livestock now, but he hopes to in the future.

He realizes the method of growing food in the United States is becoming more artificial, the food losing

most nutritional value.

Kenney explains his gardening as a service to the community, informing people of the permaculture method. He does not use pesticides or chemicals on his plants. Instead, he uses amendments, which are native bacteria already found in the soil, mineral supplements, and seaweed.

Helping him is John Baker, who has a strong background in farming, including at the Earle Family Farm in Center Conway.

Kenney goes beyond organic; he focuses more on growing and consuming locally. To him it’s not about competing with other organic farms, but supporting the community.

“We want people to know we aren’t cutting any corners, we are putting everything into it we can,” says Kenny.

He believes that the cost of this type of produce won’t be a deterrent to consumers because they know they are paying for something better.

Kenny would be happy to help anyone who is interested in permaculture farming. Creating a community among farmers is a strong aspiration for Kenny.

“As much as this is a tourist based town, we want to feed our people, our neighborhoods, our families, our friends,” he says.

His garden is located on West Side Road, across from the smiley face barn. Kenny welcomes all visitors.

Multi-use trail under construction in Fryeburg Page 16 — THE CONWAY DAILY SUN, Saturday, June 18, 2011

BY TOM EASTMAN THE CONWAY DAILY SUN

FRYEBURG, Maine — Come Labor Day, Dave Kinsman of the Mountain Division Alliance, his wife, Connie, and other local cycling enthusiasts will be able to ride a now-under-construction section of the Mountain Division Rail Trail in Fryeburg, Maine.

Long awaited, it's part of a long-term vision to connect the communities along the 52-mile stretch from Fryeburg in the west to Portland to the east.

Crews from A.J. Coleman and Son Inc. of Albany are currently constructing a mile-and-a-half stretch from the Maine Visitors Center on Route 302 east to Porter Road.

Later this summer, according to Coleman project supervisor Gardner Halsey, the path will be paved, making it a multi-use trail for cycling, rollerblading and walking in warm-weather months, and for snowmobiling and cross-country skiing in winter.

Despite the frequent rain of the past month, things are moving ahead smoothly, according to Halsey, who was interviewed at the site near the old Fryeburg train station at the end of Smith Street Wednesday afternoon, as an excavator, dump truck and bulldozing crew leveled the route alongside the south side of the tracks.

“It's all going about as straightforward as you could hope. The rain actually helped us by not having to water down the dust. Has it been buggy?

Oh yeah — they've been brutal,” said Halsey. see TRAIL page 18

Dave Kinsman, president of the non-profit Mountain Division Alliance, with his wife ride on the new rail trail under construction at the Maine State Visitor Information Center in Fryeburg Wednesday. The 1.5 mile section will be paved trail along the train tracks through Fryeburg will be open to bicycling, running, walking, inline skating and in the winter snowmobiling. The trail will hopefully someday connect all the way to Portland as part of the Mountain Division Trail for personal transportation as well as recreation and increasing local commerce.

Building cycling possibilities on this side of the border

BY TOM EASTMAN THE CONWAY DAILY SUN

Building the cycling possibilities on this side of the border Cycling enthusiast Steve Swenson of North Conway in an interview this week applauded the Mountain Division Rail Trail project now under way in nearby Fryeburg, Maine.

“I have a camp on Lovewell Pond, so I am looking forward to being able to ride from there to Conway that [Fryeburg] section of the new trail when it’s completed,” said Swenson, a retired SAU 9 school psychologist and avid cycling and cross-country proponent in Mount Washington Valley.

Although he says he has “not heard anything terribly positive from New Hampshire DOT” [Department of Transportation] regarding connecting trails on the New Hampshire side of the Mountain Division line, he is hopeful that some day there will be approval for a bike path over the rail bridge over the Saco.

“It might be more realistic, I know, to just come over from Maine via East Conway Road past Sherman Farm, but it would be logical to continue that extension over the bridge for cyclists, just as snowmobilers use it in winter,” said Swenson, who was part of the effort to build the mountain biking path behind the Conway Police Station alongside the Saco 20 years ago.

Like David Kinsman of the Mountain Division Alliance, Swenson remains a cycling visionary for what could be done to enhance cycling opportunities in Mount Washington Valley.

He continues to work with private landowners

on possible easements that would enable proponents to build a recreational bike path throughout the community.

“The Mount Washington Valley Bike Path multi-use pedestrian and bike path organization was founded two years ago. We have a website [mwvbikepath.org] and our e-mail is info@ mwvbikepath.org,” said Swenson in an interview at the Met Friday.

Ever on his bicycle, he characteristically had biked from his Kearsarge Road home the short distance to the Met for the interview.

According to its brochure, the MWV Bike Path’s mission is “to build and maintain a multiuse path within the greater Conway area that provides residents and visitors alike alternative community access and opportunities for safe and family-oriented recreation and transportation.”

Despite the challenges of getting the OK from landowners, Swenson said he remains hopeful that the bike path will become reality. see SWENSON page 21

TRAIL from page 16

The trail will be 10 to 12 feet wide, with most of it intended to be 15 feet or more away from the tracks. If it gets closer than 10 feet, fencing will be erected between the track and trail, according to Kinsman.

The right-of-way averages 66 feet wide, he said.

Next year, in a separate project, crews are to build a two-mile section from Porter Road to Airport Road.

A hearing on that approximately $2 million project is set for Fryeburg Town Offices June 21 at 6 p.m. *** The Maine Department of Transportation owns the rails and the rightof-way, having acquired the properties after Guilford Transportation abandoned the rail line in 1994.

The Maine Department of Transportation purchased the corridor and tracks in 1997.

The Maine Department of Transportation received $1.3 million in federal funds for the current Fryeburg project “three or four years ago” through the Intermodal Surface Transportation Efficiency Act (ISTEA), according to Kinsman, a former co-owner of Downeast Bicycle Specialists, of Fryeburg. He has been involved with the Mountain Division Alliance since 1997, serving as president since 2003.

The Mountain Division Trail follows the original Portland and Ogdensburg Railway, built to connect Portland with the St. Lawrence Seaway in Ogdensburg, N.Y., with another spur leading to Montreal.

The railroad was later purchased by

the Maine Central and renamed the Mountain Division.

After its abandonment by Guilford Transportation in 1994, the Mountain Division Alliance was formed the same year by those who wanted to preserve the railroad corridor.

In 1997, 50 miles of the line from Windham to the New Hampshire border were purchased by the Maine Department of Transportation, thus preserving the right-of-way for recreational and future rail uses.

The first 4.7-mile section of the Mountain Division Rail Trail was done in 2004 from Windham to Standish, according to Kinsman, with another one-mile section done a year later from Windham to Gorham over a bike/pedestrian bridge.

The alliance became a 501c3 nonprofit the same year, making it possible to make tax-deductible contributions to the trail.

Other trail sections have been added in recent years.

This year's Fryeburg project is part of what could be an ongoing 20-year effort or more to connect the communities along the corridor, according to Dan Stewart, Bicycle, Pedestrian, and Quality Community Program Manager for the Maine Department of Transportation of Augusta.

“It's impossible to say just how long it will take, as it all depends on the economic climate and funding. But I would say that the Mountain Division Corridor is one of our trails of statewide significance. There is a beautiful section already connecting three communities from Standish through see next page

Gorham into Windham — if you want to see what this one in Fryeburg will look like when finished, I would urge people to take a drive over to Standish and take a look with your bike,” said Stewart Thursday. “The town of Brownfield applied in 2008 from Fryeburg into Brownfield, which was also a good application. It's a good project to connect Fryeburg Academy with all of the communities around it in that part of the state,” added Stewart, who says although it all takes time, the vision is to be able to provide communities with alternative forms of transportation.

“You have to build these projects piecemeal, as it is quite an undertaking [to connect the entire corridor],” he added.

And, with gas prices nearing $4 a gallon earlier this summer, there is no question that alternatives will be needed in the long run, whether on bicycles or trains.

“This is a multi-use rail trail. It is for alternative transportation — you would not be able to get the funding if it were just recreational,” said Kinsman.

••• The last freight train along the

Mountain Division from North Conway to Portland was in 1983.

While some question whether rail travel or freight will ever see a return on the Mountain Division, Kinsman says that's on the table for study.

The recreational and train uses are not incompatible, he underscored.

“The Mountain Division Alliance is a partnership of rail and trail advocates. The vision has always been to have a recreational trail next to the rail bed; it's not a situation of competing interests at all. The two work together,” says Kinsman.

He said although some newer members of the alliance may not be bicycling enthusiasts, part of his role as president of the alliance and as a cycling enthusiast is to remind them of the multi-use concept.

“They may not understand,” he said, “that there are over 3,000 miles of rail and trail in the country right now, 1,100 of which are [alongside] active railroad beds.

“Again, in addition to seeing this as a recreational trail,” he said, “we see this as being an alternative transportation corridor. That's one of the reasons why it's considered to be one of the top three trail projects in the state see next page

“We have a map of where we would like to go. The two most immediate positive sections so far would be to reconnect the recreation trail to Mineral Spring that was disrupted when they built the new Kennett High — we have gotten the OK from people at the school, and we need to figure out what the cost would be to get across the swale at the school.

Then we could reconnect to Lamplighters and back on the trail along the river,” said Swenson.

Another “most doable” project, he said, would be to build a trail from the northeast corner of the Mountain Valley Mall from Hannaford north to the Red Jacket on the west side of the North-South Road.

There are already mountain biking trails in town-owned Whitaker Woods in North Conway Village.

The White Mountain chapter of the New England Mountain Biking Association has also worked on trails off Hurricane Mountain Road.

“I know that there are folks looking at trails around Pequawket Pond in Conway Village as well,” said Swenson.

His committee is also looking at the corridor behind Jung’s Motel to the North Conway Water Precinct wastewater treatment plant.

That section would require the approval of easements from campgrounds located along sections of the corridor.

“Presumably, that would be beneficial [for the campgrounds] to have biking trails. It would come out [in the southern end] at the Audubon Society property [behind L.L. Bean] and at Echo Acres to the north,”

?

said Swenson.

Members of the committee also include Rob Adair, Larry Garland of the Appalachian Mountain Club, Sally McMurdo, Nels Liljedahl, Debra Eddison, Joan Richardson and Lisa Holcomb.

Supporting organizations include the Natural Resources Conservation Service, North Country RC&D, Carroll County Conservation District, the town of Conway, the Mount Washington Valley Chamber of Commerce, the Mount Washington Valley Economic Council and the Memorial Hospital.

A decade or so ago, efforts were under way to build a path on the east side of Route 16, but easement difficulties with landowners stalled those efforts.

Grant funding and working out arrangements with landowners continue to lie ahead.

“With landowners,” said Swenson, “I think there is still a misunderstanding about the economic advantages for them to be connected on a non-motorized path. There are lots of statistics about the socioeconomic and health advantages of being part of a trail system,” said Swenson, who at 78, personifies that lifestyle ethic.

“Town staff have been supportive, such as in working with landowners such as the Evergreen on the Saco residential development to allow for an easement for the continuation of the bike path. But we have not asked the town for any money — people may donate, however, through our fiscal agent, which is through [UNH] Carroll County Cooperative Extension,” said Swenson.

works with his wife at the Jackson Ski Touring Center. In summer, he serves on the Mount Washington Valley chamber's cycling committee, and also volunteers on the town of Fryeburg's pedestrian and cycling committee which strives to make the village more bicycle and pedestrian friendly.

The potential for building the local tourism-based economy for cycling is great, say the Kinsmans.

“Fryeburg has some of the best riding anywhere, for road biking mainly. There is, of course, plenty of mountain biking nearby in the national forest, too,” said Connie, who regularly supplies maps and information about local cycling in her summertime job at the Maine Visitors Center in Fryeburg. “We've got great riding in agricultural areas. You can't beat the scenery.”

They both touted the new Fryeburg's trail in that its trailhead is located at the visitors bureau, which gives it restroom access, water and parking.

“What we would like to see with this trail,” said Kinsman, “would be growth in the cycling business because when you think of it, for some people a ride from here to Portland is nothing. For others, a ride from here to Hiram is a big deal — so they could ride from here to Hiram, stay overnight, and ride to Steep Falls, stay overnight and then ride on to Westbrook. So it could make for a great cycling weekend.”

For more information about the trail, visit www.mountaindivisiontrail.org or write Kinsman at Mountain Division Alliance, P.O. Box 532, Fryeburg, Maine 04037.

He also may be reached by calling him at (207) 935-4283, or via e-mail at dkinsman@roadrunner.com.

of Maine — it can't just be a recreational trail, it has to be used to connect communities. This will connect Fryeburg to Portland.”

“So,” he said, “as we get a lot closer to Portland, I think you'll see a lot more people using it as an alternative means of transportation into Portland.”

••• In the meantime, local cyclists and recreationalists can look forward to using the new Fryeburg section for exercise and for using that and next year's sections as they cycle on routes 113 and 302 from Fryeburg to North Conway.

Kinsman and his wife, Connie, note that local cycling received a major boost when Fryeburg was selected to host the Maine Bicycle Rally, presented by the Maine Bike Coalition, in 2008 and 2009. The rally this year will be in Brunswick, Maine, July 8-10.

The site for the annual rally gets rotated every two years, they said.

“That really put Fryeburg on the cycling map,” said Kinsman. “Everyone came here they ate, they snacked, they filled up the local bed and breakfasts and hotels, and some at the fairgrounds. The first year we had 650 people here for the weekend, which was a lot.”

“We had people from 23 states here that year. I think it brought more people back, and got people talking. It kind of put Fryeburg on the map as a cycling destination. And as a result of that, the Mount Washington Valley chamber began talking about making the area a bicycling destination area,” he added.

Proposed BARTLETT RECREATION GOLF TOURNAMENT custodial Thank You! cuts concern committee

THE CONWAY DAILY SUN, Saturday, June 18, 2011— Page 23

The Bartlett Recreation Department would like to thank the following donors and sponsors for their extreme generosity for supporting our golf tournament held at the Indian Mound Golf Club.

Thanks to everyone’s generosity our tournament was a huge success again this year. We thank you all for supporting the Bartlett Recreation Department’s scholarships, programs, and events.

BY LLOYD JONES THE CONWAY DAILY SUN

CONWAY — Only a handful of people turned out to the municipal budget committee's public hearing on the revised school budget Wednesday night in Loynd Auditorium at Kennett High. Most on hand were district employees or members of the Conway School Board along with a few citizens.

Most of the discussion at the nearly two-hour meeting came among the members of the budget committee, and the hot topic of the evening was custodians and maintenance personnel. Budgeteers fear that a cut in those positions could lead the community down a familiar path with its schools falling into disrepair.

The school board is proposing a $286,739 cut from its April budget, bringing a total figure of $32,798,634 to the committee Wednesday night.

The New Hampshire Attorney General and N.H. Department of Revenue Administration determined May 11 that the budget approved by voters in April was subject to the so-called 10 percent rule, which limits to 10 percent the amount voters can add or deduct from the budget.

The school board's budget committee (which includes Jane Gray of Eaton, the SAU 9 chairman) voted to move forward with the following cuts May 26 at a special meeting: • $50,000 in special education tuition as a student moved out of district.

• $28,360 in special education supplies.

• $6,000 for Tin Mountain in the elementary schools.

• $38,708 for a high school hall monitor.

• $5,000 for School to Career. see BUDGET page 24

The budget committee will vote on the revised school budget when it meets this Monday at 6:30 p.m. in the meeting room at Conway Town Hall in Center Conway. It's the lone item on the committee's agenda that evening.

Wednesday was an opportunity for the budgeteers to get public feedback, but most of the discussion was among themselves.

Chairman Dave Sordi was unable to attend the meeting, but did state he supported the cut offered by the school board through a letter read by acting chair Danielle Santuccio. He called it "the first step toward managing the budget," and pledged to support the proposed budget and hoped his colleagues would, too.

Fellow budget committee member Betty Loynd wondered why the school board was submitting a reduced budget. She's not sure that's what the public wants to see. She feels voters demonstrated their support for the school budget by rallying against the budget committee's 11 percent cut at the deliberative portion of school meeting in March and then later at the polls in April when they voted down the budget opting for the then higher default budget.

"I don't know why we have a cut from the school board," she said. "We don't want that cut. I don't want that cut. This community supports education and doesn't want a cut like that."

She sought to make a motion to restore the full $285,000 to the budget, but was told the time for that action will be Monday when the committee formally votes on the budget.

Bill Marvel, also of the committee, pointed out that previously Loynd had stated she'd support whatever budget the school board would recommend. "This is yet another contradiction in an endless stream," he said.

Marvel said there were items he would have liked to see not on the chopping block such as Tin Mountain and the art teacher position and would rather have seen a team of teachers cut from the middle school and a foreign language, not German, added there.

"I think it's reasonable for the school board to do the cuts it did," he said. "It's not unreasonable given the declining enrollment (within the district)."

Budgeteer Kelly DeFeo believes the previous budget committee is to blame for the additional cuts.

"The budget committee got rabid and just went way overboard with cuts ranging from 11 to 18 percent," she sad. "They're why we're in the position we're in now. The budget committee went overboard and didn't do their job. Now, we're cutting things that shouldn't be cut."

"The focus isn't what happened before, it's the proposals before us tonight," Santuccio said.

Ray Shakir, who voted for the 11 percent cut to the school budget earlier this year, believes the community does want to see the budget cut.

"I strenuously disagree that this community does not want to see the school budget cut," he said. "The (turnout) at the deliberative meeting represented a stacked deck for the school community. I'm positive most people would go for common sense cuts rather than a blotted bureaucracy."

Fellow budget committee member Joe Mosca likes the new proposed budget.

"I personally would like to thank the school board, kudos for what they came up with," he said. "I hope we'll be responsible and do the right thing."

Mike DiGregorio, the selectmen's representative to the committee and a former school board member, talked about his board member days see next page

when he chaired the facilities committee.

"Looking at the cuts and seeing a custodian on the list really bothers me," he said. "We all come from an era when we saw what a lack of a maintenance plan can do. It was disastrous."

DiGregorio explained the high school and middle school when they were built and renovated, respectively, were both below the national recommended standards for custodial services in an effort to save money. He's fearful the impact will be felt at the elementary school level if they lose a set of hands. "I'm sure Dr. (Carl) Nelson (school superintendent) doesn't want to cut any of these positions."

Nelson explained the custodians will work out a rotation to share the part-time post among the three elementary schools.

While budget committee member Ted Sares saw DiGregorio's point, he also pointed out the nation is experiencing difficult financial times. The city of Providence, R.I. just laid off 50 police offers and cut even more teachers due to the economy.

"These are times this country hasn't experienced at least in my lifetime and I'm 74," he said. "The beat of this country is not up right now, it's down."

Sares supports what amounts to a two percent cut to the budget when you take into account the $265,000 the school board cut at the outset of the budget cycle to match the retirement of a bond. "I think two percent, given what's going on now, is the right thing to do," he said.

Dick Klement, the school board's representative to the budget committee and the current facilities chairman, explained the decision to cut a custodian was a difficult one, but it was either a custodian or one of four maintenance people.

"We felt by reducing the elementary custodians the impact was less than a full-time maintenance person," he said.

"We'll be going down the wrong roads if we start letting our buildings fall part," DiGregorio said.

Loynd said she had researched the property tax rates for the past 10 years and has not seen a dramatic increase. In fact, she pointed out the school rate had dropped from $13.32 to $11.82 per $1,000 of property valuation recently.

Sares and Shakir both said their taxes have risen in recent years.

"If someone wants to stipulate that there is no tax problem in the town of Conway, I'd like them to stand up and say so right now," Sares said.

"My taxes have gone up $2,000. My house would have sold for $1 million four years ago and now I couldn't get $400,000.

"My taxes went up $800 last year," Shakir added. "I guess it must have been because of the inefficiency of the town."

Loynd later asked Shakir if he had ever toured any of the schools within the district. He said he had visited Pine Tree.

"You think it's not full?" Loynd asked.

"I think it should be closed," Shakir responded.

Klement pointed out the school board will pose a non-binding referendum question next April asking voters if they would like to close an elementary school in the district. If the answer is yes then the board will begin exploring closing a school.

During the public hearing portion of the meeting, former selectman and budget committee member Bob Drinkhall said he would like to maintain all custodial services. He went on to say he believes the school budget is blotted.

is the equivalent to the Titanic already in sight of the iceberg unable to navigate around it," Drinkhall said in a prepared statement. "The crew not only spends its last minutes with the proverbial rearranging of the deck chairs, they attempt to take on the water, hastening their demise.

"With the dismal test scores provided us, the number of arrests at school, the number of expulsions, the increased budget over the years, the reduction in enrollment, the phenomenal increased in staff, and my own experiences with students and graduates as a landlord and in doing business around the area I cannot see, in my opinion, the bloated budget resulting in success," he continued. "If this be success I would like to know the definition of failure. In closing I believe the problems preventing better education are what I refer to as R and D. That being the lack of responsibility and discipline required of today's students from dress code to academics.

Hopefully, the school board and the budget committee will uphold some cuts from the original budget with a resulting savings to the overburdened taxpayers."

Fellow citizen Therese Davison appreciates the diversity on this group of budgeteers.

"I hope it will create some healthy discussion over the next year and hope that the conversation stays healthy," she said. "I do not as a community member want to see a repeat of (the deliberative portion of school meeting), I don't even have a word for it."

Drinkhall believes the school should be doing better academically.

"The dumbing down of students is absolutely phenomenal," he said.

"I'd be here all night if I told you about the experiences I've had as a landlord with young people," Following the public hearing, DiGregorio wondered if the budget committee could vote then on the budget rather than waiting until Monday. He is unable to attend that meeting.

"Most of us probably know how we're going to lay down tonight," he said.

Others felt that since Sordi and fellow member Karen Umberger, who was unable to attend Wednesday due to her state representative commitments in Concord, were both planning to be on hand Monday it was best to wait until that night.

DiGregorio was the only person in a show of hands unable to attend Monday.

In his absence, DiGregorio hoped the budgeteers would consider restoring the custodian position and also felt it important to preserve the hall monitor. While colleagues agreed to bring up the custodian position noon openly agreed to support restoration of the hall monitor.

"The oath I took for this office was to represent everyone in town and that includes the taxpayer," Sares said. "We took an oath to represent everyone in town. If we're going to restore $58,000 for the custodian then I think the administration should come back with $58,000 in cuts from someplace else to replace that amount."

The deliberative portion of school meeting would be July 12 in the Loynd Auditorium at Kennett High with the earliest possible date to vote in this timeline being Aug. 16 at the Conway Community Building in Center Conway from 8 a.m. to 7 p.m. The budget would be the lone item voted on that day.

Last year, I finally had the joy of seeing a female indigo bunting accompanying her brilliantly hued male to the bird feeding station. She was very light brown, nearly nondescript, but possessed an azure touch to her wing feathers. Very subtle in tone, but there... I noticed her feeding quite contentedly alongside the mate, but without a lot of concern expressed while perching with him as a couple.

These two sexes of this species do not often pursue the same paths in their existence, and habitually remain quite apart most summers, so therefore my appreciation of her appearance on my thistle feeder.

The male indigo bunting likes black oil sunflower seeds, and that is where we first sight him most springtimes, and with considerable relish. The bird is deeply impacting with his cobalt blue plumage, which we all have read is not true blue at all, being actually blackish in the shade. It becomes blue to our eyes when the sunlight refracts off his feathers, as they do not

sing just as loud and continuously as he can. What he makes up for in melody is accomplished in intent.

No summer day is too hot for him to advertise his breeding territory, and these birds are known for that. He sings to defend this area, warning other males to keep away.

A good deal of research by biologists using high tech sonograms demonstrates that young males coming in his territory may copycat signature songs made by the older bird to keep the peace. The suspicion is that these younger birds have a better chance of gaining a mate, and setting up their own breeding territory while avoiding a battle with their neighbors already there.

The male indigo bunting keeps at it with his fast, excited warble, suggesting: “sweet, sweet, where-where, see-it, see-it!” This strident song is a musical series of notes, each phase given in two’s. Another call is a sharp, thin “spit.” And his flight call sounds see next page

like a high buzz. You can now Google up a lot of these songbird calls on your computer. Lang Elliot’s CDs are also wonderful pieces of recorded work, and the recent Stokes’ “Birds” includes one in the back of their book.

Indigo buntings will breed between May and September, with most of their activity occurring June through August.

They are said to raise more than one brood per season, and may switch nests or even mates between broods.

The drab female chooses the nest site in thickets, and constructs the nest alone, which can take up to eight days. These nests are built in shrubs, or where blackberries and raspberries grow in fields, and commonly right at

the edge of the woods, wet roadsides, and railways. They are said to be one of the hardest to find in this underbrush.

The solid cup is well constructed of woven plant fibers, leaves, dried grasses, and strips of bark. After this compact nest is complete, the female lays usually three or four, pale bluish-white eggs inside, where she has lined its interior with fine grasses and rootlets, even hair.

Incubation is 11-14 days.

fly fishing might be fun, but have had some of the concerns I have just mentioned I have an answer for you. Each Saturday morning in the month of July the North Country Angler in cooperation with The Orvis Company and Trout Unlimited will be holding “Fly Fishing 101” introduction to fly fishing clinics at the shop.

The clinics are absolutely free and in addition all attendees will receive a gift certificate in the amount of $15 from Orvis and a free membership in Trout Unlimited, valued at $35. The clinic will cover basic casting instruction, knot tying rigging instruction.

Those who wish to attend must make reservations in advance by calling the shop at 356-6000.

The clinics begin a 9 a.m. and end around 11 a.m.

These clinics fill up fast so make your reservations soon.

This is our second year of holding these clinics and last year’s clinics were a great deal of fun for both the instructors and the guests. Maybe we can take some of the “Fear of Fly Fishing” out of the sport.

See you on the river.

A pilgrimage to the new Madison Spring Hut Page 30 — THE CONWAY DAILY SUN, Saturday, June 18, 2011

Hiking –––––

Looking down the ridge — the Howker Ridge Trail rises up from the valley to the left. (ED PARSONS PHOTO)

EARLY SUMMER

SAVINGS EVENT!

My motivation for a hike this Wednesday was to see the new AMC Madison Ed Parsons Spring Hut. I had worked for the AMC Construction Crew in the summers of 1966, 67, and 68, and had spent an extended time at Madison in 66, when we built a new leaching field next to the hut. With that strong memory, I was curious to experience the new place.

Besides that primary motivation, going for a hike in the Northern Presidentials often presents numerous interesting trail options.

Instead of hiking up the Valley Way, which is Madison Hut’s “pack trail” (the most direct way, used by the hut crew to pack in supplies), I decided to challenge myself by not going to the hut directly, and taking one of the harder trails in the Whites — the 4.5 mile Howker Ridge Trail.

This trail would take me from the valley of Randolph to the summit of Mount Madison via its northeast ridge. It had a trail elevation gain of 4,141 feet. Named for a farm family that lived near its base, the consistently steep Howker Ridge Trail climbs over three prominent peaks or “howks.” The views from these points get better as you climb towards timberline — the highest is a rocky point with a sweeping view. After that, the ascending trail then connects with the Osgood Trail near the summit of Mount Madison. This trail passes over the top and continues a half mile down to Madison Spring Hut. Completing my itinerary, and to get back to my car later, I planned to partially descend the Valley Way and then take a series of trails east that would lead me over a low ridge and eventually back down to the lower Howker Ridge Trail — a nearly ten mile round trip, the majority of it on rough ground.

In short, a rewarding and fun hike, and a worthy way to see the new hut.

That morning I decided to drive from Route 16 over the dirt Dolly Copp Road to the trail head, located on that road just before Route 2 in Randolph. I parked and started up the trail.

There is definitely an “entering” at the start of a hike, where you move from sharp angles to the soft angles of nature, and experience the pleasing potentiality of the day, mixed with a pinch of prudence. Looking closely at the forest in the morning light, something inside of you relaxes. Then, with the steepening of the trail, the “machine” of the body begins it labor, and you start to take on the symptoms of that — symptoms that can hopefully be tempered by fitness and experience. see next page

On the lower trail, I passed waterfalls on Bumpus Brook, and the trail steepened. The early morning air was cool and dry — it was the perfect day for the Howker Ridge (though doing it in firm trail conditions during the snowy season can be even better).

I passed the first bump in the ridge called Blueberry Ledge, and then labored up and down the ridge as the three “howks” passed beneath my feet. A reward of southward vistas got better at each. The

summit bulk of Mount Madison, at first looking a little distant, grew ever closer until I was part of it, and the view reversed, so that I was looking back north, down at the impressive bumpy ridge. My favorite view, however, as I started up the summit cone, was looking directly east into Carter Notch, cradled between Carter Dome and Wildcat Mountain.

Finally, I reached the Osgood Tail and scrambled up to the summit, where a group of a half dozen day hikers drafted me to take pictures see next page

with three digital cameras — one held in each of my vest pockets, and one in hand. I moved a little further along for a quiet lunch in the cool breeze, than headed down to the hut.

When I worked at Madison Hut in 1966, the construction crew members would occasionally climb up to the summit of Mount Madison after dinner.

The walk back down to the hut in the glowing evening light was memorable.

On Wednesday, as expected, an upward view of the new hut moved into my field of vision as I descended from the summit.

I saw that the hut was essentially the same design as the old one, with various wings off a central section. It was good to keep that basic character. I saw that stone walls had been saved, and possibly new ones added on.

Approaching the hut, I saw that the construction crew was still at work, doing outside stone work, reshaping the

immediate landscape around the hut. They took advantage of gravity to move big boulders, sliding them down a cable from the east side of the building to the west side, where a raised patio was being built outside the main entrance.

I came out of the stunted trees next to the hut, and paused by two guys harnessing the boulders to the cable. I saw that they were taking the boulders from around the site of the old Number 2 Madison Hut — a small stone structure that was built in 1911 (the first hut was built in 1888).

Number 2 was demolished decades ago, but in 1966, when we went up to Madison Hut to build the leaching field, it was still there. Bunk beds were built in the old Number 2 by our boss Carl Blanchard, and we lived in it for a month, eating with the hut crew in the main building.

I mentioned these things to the two present day construction crew members. They talked about recently finish-

ing the main building. We talked about progress, and how it can be a two sided coin.

However, later going inside the new hut, I thought that if it had to be rebuilt, it was done just the way it should be done.

The large dining room was the color of new wood, and had a sweep of windows facing west.

The kitchen was perfectly located, with an expanded crew room tucked out of sight behind it. The bunkrooms and toilets (with waterless toilets) were out of sight in the other direction.

I lingered for a while, looking at old logbooks from the 1960s, then took off.

The hike down completed the circle of a good strenuous hike. A mile down the Valley Way, I took a right on the Lower Bruin Trail down to Snyder Brook, then took the Brookside and Kelton Trails out to the Inlook, a fine viewpoint. Then I continued down the steep Kelton Trail to where it intersected the Howker Ridge Trail, a half mile from the road.

acters that it is easy to just go with the flow. Abrams as a director does a fine job of keeping things at a steady pace that allows for character development and interaction.

When things go crazy, in the end you actually care.

As is often the case with Spielberg films, there's a sentimentality to the film and there are moments that feel manipulative and heavy handed, but it is a testament to how well Abrams handles this material and his actors that these moments work and still affect almost in spite of themselves.

This is the kind of movie that you wish every summer movie could be.

It is engaging, smart, funny and touching.

Of the rest of the kids, the stand out is Ryan Lee as a boy with penchant for explosives. Riley Griffiths as the director of the zombie film is also good especially has he starts using the real events unfolding as “production value” for his film.

As for that zombie film, the kids actually did write and direct it themselves. It plays over the closing credits and it is an absolute riot.

The last third of the film turns into an outright 1950s-style monster movie with better special effects and explosions. The switch in tone is a bit jarring, but at that point you're so invested in the char-

ALBANY — Join Tin Mountain teacher/naturalist Carol Foord on Sunday, June 19, from 1 to 5 p.m. for a fascinating foray to uncover the history of the Saco Valley region through local stonework’s in the Tin Mountain Conservation Center nature program, “History of Saco Valley through Stonewalls and Cellar Holes.”

Foord will journey from 1725 to 1825 visiting Lovewell’s monument, a slave’s grave, Frye’s cellar hole, Molly Ockett’s cave, and numerous other unique stonework sites.

As this program is entirely in the field, dress in layers, wear sturdy walking shoes, and bring water and snacks. Each site involves short, easy walking. Carpooling between sites is encouraged.

Foord earned a master's in environmental studies at Antioch University

DILBERT

By Holiday Mathis easier for you.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Social cues may work for some people, but there are those who won’t get the message unless you spell it out. Don’t be shy. You deserve to be heard, even by those who are figuratively hard of hearing.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21).

You are slow to commit because you take your commitments so seriously.

You’d like to keep your responsibilities to a minimum, and there are definite benefits to doing so now.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19).

You sense where you’re welcome, and that’s where you go. If you’re not met with open arms, there is likely a reason that has nothing to do with you personally. Go where the love is flowing.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You sometimes choose leisure activities that feel more like obligation than an entertaining release. If you’re going to dance, dance because it feels liberating and playful -- not because the music is forcing you against your will.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). If you don’t know the purpose of an activity, even potentially fun activities could be pushed back to an unspecified time.

Knowing why you want to do something will be the key to overcoming procrastination.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (June 18).

You’ll make new friends and gain followers over the next six weeks. In your adventurous mindset, you won’t feel the least bit interested in security, but there’s someone who loves you rock steady anyway. In August, a new job or business takes off. October brings the purchase of property. You share a special connection with Aquarius and Pisces people. Your lucky numbers are: 12, 14, 39, 4 and 19.

Cul de Sac

ARIES (March 21-April 19). Today’s job may tax your powers of focus. So make a list of the benefits, rewards and positive feelings you’ll experience by completing a project, and read it whenever you lose sight of the goal.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). It’s been said that if you fail to plan, you plan to fail. However, that’s not always true, and it’s certainly not true for you today. You’re open to what comes, and ultimately, it will surpass anything you could have planned.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You know you’re smart. You are also spiritually, intellectually and emotionally stronger than you usually give yourself credit for being. Today’s events will prove the point.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). Though you attract houseguests, you don’t always want them. But can you blame them for plotting to stay with you? Your home is cozy and well imagined, and others feel immediately comfortable in the environment you’ve created.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Whatever happens, you are determined to get the most learning and fun you can possibly draw from the experience. Life may seem to favor you, but only because you are creating the right circumstances with your lucky attitude.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). In order to have a productive day, you’ll have to be very specific about your expectations. If the outcome you want is vague, it will be difficult to convey and even more challenging to get others to focus on it.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You’ll need to keep records, but you won’t be in the mood to spend your whole day doing this. Figure out what needs to be tracked and how. Get a system in place, and life becomes immediately

THE CONWAY DAILY SUN, Saturday, June 18, 2011— Page 37

Today is Saturday, June 18, the 169th day of 2011. There are 196 days left in the year.

Today’s Highlight in History: On June 18, 1983, astronaut Sally K. Ride became America’s first woman in space as she and four colleagues blasted off aboard the space shuttle Challenger.

On this date: In 1778, American forces entered Philadelphia as the British withdrew during the Revolutionary War. In 1812, the United States declared war against Britain.

In 1815, Napoleon Bonaparte met his Waterloo as British and Prussian troops defeated the French in Belgium.

In 1873, suffragist Susan B. Anthony was found guilty by a judge in Canandaigua, N.Y., of breaking the law by casting a vote in the 1872 presidential election. (The judge fined Anthony $100, but she never paid the penalty.)

In 1908, William Howard Taft was nominated for president by the Republican national convention in Chicago.

In 1940, during World War II, British Prime Minister Winston Churchill urged his countrymen to conduct themselves in a manner that would prompt future generations to say, “This was their finest hour.”

In 1945, William Joyce, known as “Lord Haw-Haw,” was charged in London with high treason for his English-language wartime broadcasts on German radio.

In 1971, Southwest Airlines began operations, with flights between Dallas and San Antonio, and Dallas and Houston.

In 1979, President Jimmy Carter and Soviet President Leonid I. Brezhnev signed the SALT II strategic arms limitation treaty in Vienna.

In 1981, Supreme Court Justice Potter Stewart announced his retirement; his departure paved the way for Sandra Day O’Connor to become the first female associate justice.

One year ago: Death row inmate Ronnie Lee Gardner died in a barrage of bullets as Utah carried out its first firing squad execution in 14 years.

Today’s Birthdays: Columnist Tom Wicker is 85. Rock singer-composer-musician Sir Paul McCartney is 69. Movie critic Roger Ebert is 69. Actress Constance McCashin is 64. Actress Linda Thorson is 64. Rock musician John Evans (The Box Tops) is 63.

STAR IN HIS GIRLFRIEND’S EYES TRIGGERS BOYFRIEND’S JEALOUSY

DEAR ABBY: I have been in a relationship with a great guy, “Jonah,” for four months. We get along well and enjoy a lot of the same things. At times he can be jealous when other men notice me, but we have never had arguments about it.

Only one thing about me really bothers him -- it’s my infatuation with actor Mark Wahlberg.

Jonah is so upset about it he refuses to see any of Mark’s films with me and gets annoyed when I mention him. It irks me because I know being with Mark isn’t a realistic option, but Jonah acts like it is. What can I say to make him see that he (Jonah) is the only one I want to be with and Mark is just a fantasy? -- STAR-CROSSED LOVER DEAR STAR-CROSSED: You may have said too much already. Stop bringing up Mark Wahlberg and see his films in the company of your girlfriends. While Jonah may be a “great guy,” he appears to be somewhat insecure, which is why he becomes jealous when another man notices you. And insecure men can become irrational and controlling, so monitor his behavior and do not make any commitments until you both have matured.

DEAR ABBY: Our daughter “Melanie” is finishing her

master’s degree in social work. She’s excited about pursuing her future career; however, when we tell our friends about her, we get disappointing -- and sometimes, hurtful -- responses. Some samples: “Whose idea was that?!” “You know she’s going to starve, don’t you?” “Oh ... they don’t make much money,” and, “I’m sorry!” These comments come from people with whom we’ve had warm relationships for years.

We know our daughter won’t be rich. That’s not her objective. We’re proud of Melanie’s choice and how hard she has prepared. We think she’ll be a wonderful social worker.

We have always been supportive of our friends’ children and their choices. Is there a way to respond to these people without being rude? -- PROUD PARENTS IN DES MOINES DEAR PROUD PARENTS: You SHOULD be proud. You have raised a daughter who will make an important contribution to the lives of those she touches. When someone makes a thoughtless comment such as the ones you mentioned, tell them what you wrote to me: “We’re proud of our daughter’s choice and how hard she has worked to prepare. We know she’ll be a wonderful social worker.” Period.

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

On Saturday a large group of history buffs met at The Grove near the Narrows bridge connecting the large and small Chocorua Lakes.

Despite persistent drizzle, biting insects and a chilly breeze, everyone listened intently to Jim Bowditch’s account of his ancestors’ development of mills in that location. Most of us then carpooled a short distance North on Route 16 to the ruins of the former Nickerson Mill.

After scrambling through a woody area, we were rewarded by a view over the former dam and sluice gates. Historian Bob Cottrell described how the dam and mill would have looked in its hey day. The next stop was the Flanagan Dam, where Ann Albrecht spoke about her research into the Tamworth Iron Works, the former name of Chocorua village. The group walked over to G 3 store to the location of the Iron Works. Surprisingly very little information exists about that industry. One fact that came to light was that the raw material for the oil was “bog iron” derived from swamps in the area.

The final stop was at KOA campground where owner Leo Spencer and Bob Cottrell talked about the former Blackburn Mill and Dam. I would like to thank Ann Albrecht and Bob Cottrell for their thorough research, excellent presentations and organization of the series on Tamworth Mills, Sandra Flanagan for allowing us all to get close to her family dam and to Leo Spencer for allowing us to view the remains of the Blackburn Mill at his campground and to the Tamworth Historical Society for facilitating the series. The last and final program will be “Snack and Story” on Wednesday, July 20, at Runnells Hall starting at 7:30 p.m. This program feature local loggers and historians and is for students of all ages, including adults. see TAMWORTH page 47

Alternative Energy Day on the auto road Sunday PINKHAM NOTCH — The Mount Washington Auto Road will host Mount Washington Alternative Energy Day, a day to celebrate alternatively-powered vehicles, Sunday, June 19 Since the Mount Washington Carriage Road first opened, it has been a proving ground for all manner of vehicles, including Freelan Stanley in 1899, when he drove his steam-powered Locomobile to the summit. The

Locomobile ushered in the gasoline-powered era on the Mount Washington Auto Road, which continued unabated until the fuel crisis of the 1970s. The fuel crisis spawned the Mount Washington Alternative Vehicle Regatta, which set out to prove that the United States need not be dependant on gasoline. In that spirit, Mount Washington Alternative Energy Day celebrates today’s new vehicle technology and the

Fourth of July craft fair coming soon

Just a few years after returning home from Korea where he served as a doctor in a MASH unit, my dad was diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease.

I’m sorry to say that between his time away in the service and the years he was ill, I never got the chance to really know him. Luckily over the past 11 years, I have had the opportunity and good fortune to meet some amazing fathers and grandfathers right here at Gibson. They have shared their stories, their memories and their lives with all of us here at the center and, I for one, am most grateful. Thank you, God bless and Happy Father’s Day. I have one or two events coming up that I really want to mention. First, believe it or not, the month of July is less than two weeks away and we all know that means the Fourth of July craft fair. This is a three day event starting on Saturday, July 2, and we really hope you will join us at least one of those days. Karen has some great crafters lined up so all we need now is some great weather. Keep your fingers crossed. Rain or shine will not effect the second event. On Thursday, June 30, the Gibson Center will be participating in another Flatbread Fundraiser. Buy any pizza that day between the hours of 4 to 9 p.m. and a percentage of those sales will go to Gibson. Mark your calendars.

Have a good week and pray for our troops.

Carol Foord presents hidden stories Sunday Carol Foord presents hidden stories in Tin Mountain program June 19 At the selectmen’s meeting, Brian Taylor reported that the repairs he had discussed for the chapel could be done this year as there was money left over from the ceiling repair. The board will look into the feasibility of new signage for town hall hours since the present sign is very faded. The larger sign that advertises what is happening at town hall was discussed as well.

HOME OF THE WEEK

REAL ESTATE CORNER

Reading the market

BY CHARLIE ERFF Home prices can turn on a dime, and the market changes with regularity. There's one certainty you can always count on: When home prices are over the top, buyers are much more eager. They'll engage in bidding wars, make purchase offers higher than the asking price — they'll do anything to improve their value as a buyer. They want that house and they want it now — even at top dollar.

After the bubble bursts, and real estate prices bottom out, it's the very best time to buy a home. For some reason, though, this is also the least likely time people actually buy real estate. Of those who do, it's usually savvy real estate investors who've been through good and bad times. And, just as often, lucky first-time home buyers who are just entering the market, buy at the perfect time. It usually happens when they suddenly realize that it's cheaper to buy a house than it is to rent. Interest rates are usually low and so are home prices.

During the peak times, many people see real estate as an investment. They buy in the hopes of flipping properties and making huge profits.

It's possible, and not even difficult to do, especially if you buy when prices are just starting to go up, and you sell at peak.

For most people, though, buying a home is a way to own their own property. As you make the payments, the amount you owe is continually decreasing, and you gain "equity" in your home. Demand for homes in your neighborhood, employment levels and inflation also have an effect. Your home can gain value just by maintaining it. The only other option is renting, and that's likely to bring higher payments with no return.

Are you confused about the real estate market? It's just like every other investment.

Buy when everyone's selling, and sell when everyone's buying. When homeownership is highly competitive, put your money aside and save for a down payment. Call your Realtor when the market slows down, prices fall, and homes are just sitting on the market.

This latest downturn in the real estate industry is among the worst in many decades.

In many places throughout the country, property values have fallen as much as 60 percent from the peak of the market to current conditions. Most of the highest losses occurred in Florida and Western states. Much of New England, however, faired quite well through the latest bubble and burst cycle.

In Carroll County, for example, if you bought your home or condo in 2000, which was neither at the bottom nor the top of the market, the median sales price was $113,296*. At the end of 2010, the median sales price was $188,407*.

That's more than a 66 percent gain, despite the fact that we've just been through the largest housing bust since the Great Depression. On top of this, if you still own the same home, and haven't borrowed against it, you've paid down 10 years on your mortgage.

By contrast, many more people buy when home values are reaching their peak. In 2005, the median sold price for a home or condo was $216,529*. If you bought at the top of the market, your loss by 2010 was just less than 14 see ERFF page 54

percent. While it's not as drastic as the national average, and nowhere near what some of the worst states experienced, a loss is a loss.

It makes you wonder, why would anyone buy a home when the market is at its peak. The answer isn't so simple. First, no one knows when the real estate market will peak, or bottom out. It's not obvious until you can look back at the trends a year or so later. At the peak, many people want to buy before it becomes unaffordable. This would seem to be a clue — if no one can afford a home, they'll stop selling. But, the economy could heat up, earnings could rise. There's no way to tell when the market will peak.

At the same time, when the real estate market is stable, or at the bottom, people should be buying.

That's not so simple either. The real estate market is a huge economic engine in the economy. When it's in a downturn, unemployment is high, and many other industries from home furnishings to appliances to building supplies are also sent into a downturn, further depressing the economy. In short, many people do not have the earnings and down payment required to buy a home.

At the same time, banks have usually taken a loss, and have tightened their lending requirements.

This is the perfect time for those who have a steady, stable income, and have saved enough money for a down payment, to find fantastic buys in the real estate market. People in the health-care sector, food services, financial sectors, and other services and industries that are less dependent on construction or the housing

This is the perfect time for those who have a steady, stable income, and have saved enough money for a down payment, to find fantastic buys in the real estate market. industry will generally have a more stable income. This is one of the most opportune times to buy a home for those who have planned well. As rents steadily rise and the cost of homeownership actually provides a generous savings compared to renting, this is when the market turns around, and home prices begin to rise, slowly ramping up to another rush to buy real estate at any cost.

If you're ready to buy, don't wait until you get caught up in the fever.

Call your Realtor and learn what options and possibilities are available to you. If you plan to buy a home at any point in your future, keep in touch with a trusted and knowledgeable Realtor. Now is the time when interest rates are low, the choices are plentiful, and the prices are low.

In my experience, it's not going to stay like this forever.

Squeezing costs, builders take a new look at prefab

BY RONDA KAYSEN NEW YORK TIMES

PHILADELPHIA — A package arrived on a shabby north Philadelphia block in January 2010, wrapped in Tyvek and measuring 55 feet long and 16 feet wide. Inside was a kitchenette, a bathroom and two bedrooms.

The only thing missing was the toilet bowl lid. Just six weeks — and 88 similar packages — later, the Modules at Templetown, a four-story student-housing complex of 80,000 square feet near Temple University here, had completely risen from its concrete foundation.

The technique used to build the Modules, modular construction or prefab, in which major components are assembled off-site, has a long history in the singlefamily housing market, but its place in the commercial field has been limited.

Currently just 1 percent of the commercial building market is prefab, mostly limited to schools, hospitals, dormitories or retail stores, although the largest modular building in the country is a 21-story Hilton hotel in San Antonio that was erected in 1968.

Now, with an emphasis on materials conservation and reuse, and developers looking to squeeze costs any way they can, modular construction is getting a closer look.

Often the word prefab conjures images of inexpensive and poorly built structures like trailer homes. But proponents of prefab, many of whom shudder at the moniker, say that modular design done well is anything but cheaply built.

A modularly constructed building uses the same materials as a traditional one. But because it is made in a factory, workers are not battling the elements and can construct it more soundly and with less waste, proponents say.

“The quality of what you can assemble is infinitely higher on a factory floor,” said the hotelier Andr&eacute; Balazs, who considered building a luxury modular hotel atop the High Line in Manhattan, but abandoned the idea when he found it too costly in New York.

Balazs said he was in discussions with manufacturers in Europe to build individual hotel units abroad and ship them to this country to assemble a boutique hotel in Los Angeles, a process that could be replicated in other cities.

Nearly all contemporary buildings rely on some element of prefabrication, with facades largely constructed off-site and windows and doors standardized.

Even “bathroom pods,” bathrooms built and assembled off-site, are becoming increasingly common. But the idea of

Roomy 2700 square foot Fryeburg garrison with 3 bedrooms, 3 baths, open kitchen and dining room with living room and a large family room.

Extra rooms for den and/or home office or space for the family holiday guests. Located close to the village, a great home, definitely worth a look.

building most of the building in a factory and setting it atop a foundation simply has not taken off.

“Is the technology there to do it? Yes. Is the desire?

Yes,” said Christopher Sharples, a principal at SHoP Architects, which is designing a possible 34-story prefab tower for the developer Forest City Ratner at Atlantic Yards in Brooklyn. “In the near future, I think people are going to become more educated about what the potential of this approach could be.”

The market share of commercial modular construction is poised to increase in the next five years, according to the Modular Building Institute, an industry trade group. In addition to the possibility of a tower at Atlantic Yards, an eight-story modular apartment building is scheduled to break ground this summer in the University City section of Philadelphia.

A developer can expect to shave up to 20 percent off construction costs with modular building largely because labor costs are lower. A unionized New York City carpenter makes about $85 an hour, including benefits, when he works at a construction site. At Capsys in Brooklyn, the only modular factory in the city, a comparable worker makes less than $30 an hour plus benefits. Many modular factories are not unionized and pay even less.

“It’s a disaster for construction workers,” said Gary Chaison, a professor of industrial relations at Clark University in western Massachusetts.

Developers also benefit from time savings. Speed aside, builders have the ability to create a production schedule that minimizes downtime. In traditional

construction, a contractor is overseeing work by various subcontractors who work for separate entities and on their own schedules. Weather can cause delays and so can any number of unforeseen factors like waits for zoning approvals. But in a factory, all the various tradesmen from the plumbers to the carpenters to the electricians work for the factory, and all the pieces come together simultaneously.

“It never rains inside our building, it never snows,” said Tom O’Hara, the director of business development for Capsys, an 80,000-square-foot factory in the Brooklyn Navy Yard. “We can make very airtight buildings.” One of their projects, a luxury hotel on the North Fork of Long Island, was able to open in the spring of 2005, before the start of the lucrative summer season, largely because of the modular construction schedule, O’Hara said.

Still, prefab has its own set of limitations. It is uncharted territory for most architects, developers and contractors, who are hesitant to take any risks in a tenuous market. Every decision, from the color of the bathroom tile to the knobs on kitchen cabinets, must be made before construction begins. And the building must be designed so it can fit in boxes that meet Federal Highway Administration regulations.

“It looks simpler than it is,” said Jonathan Weiss, the president of Equinox Management and Construction, the developer of the Modules in Philadelphia. “There’s an awful lot of coordination.”

Weiss said the $9.5 million building would have cost 25 percent more and would have taken 15 months instead of eight had it been built traditionally.

Sellers sometimes need to throw in a few extras to seal the deal

BY ERIK MARTIN CTW FEATURES

A lower price is always nice, but home buyers today are increasingly enticed by extras that sellers are more willing to throw in the deal.

Based on the latest Spending and Saving Tracker survey from American Express, to unload their residences in the current market, 44 percent of homeowners said they would be interested in including appliances, and 28 percent would contemplate offering to make requested repairs or permitting an allocation for repairs.

"Sellers are having to make more sacrifices today versus a year ago," says Ruth Miron-Schleider, broker-owner of Miron Properties, Bergen County, N.J. "To help seal the deal, nowadays they often have to throw in more appliances, window treatments, draperies, fixtures and personal property items. That can include a plasma TV, patio furniture, backyard swing set — virtually anything."

In a recent transaction involving a $2 million home in her territory, for example, Miron-Schleider's seller had to concede a prized large mirror, worth thousands of dollars, that the buyer requested.

Common give-ins among sellers continue to be assisting with the buyer's down payment funds and closing costs and being flexible on the closing date.

"I try to get my sellers to throw in things that may appeal to the buyers, yet may not cost them as much," says Bill Golden, an agent with RE/MAX Metro Atlanta Cityside in Atlanta. "Buyers are stretching it to purchase a house now, so they usually can't afford things like closing costs and new appliances."

Closing costs may come off the seller's bottom line but are often tax-deductible. Often, a buyer would prefer paying slightly more in the purchase price if they don't have to scrape up any more out-of-pocket expenses.

If the home is in need of some fixing up, Michael Walden, professor and economist at North Carolina State University in Raleigh, says sellers should give monetary concessions on needed repairs rather than delay the sale until unexpected needed repairs are done.

It's also a smart idea for the seller to have a home inspection completed before putting the home on the market to prevent unexpected holdups to a potential sale that can result from a buyer's home inspection.

"Sellers should also research how much home

prices have fallen in their area and use this information to set a realistic price that will move the property," Walden says. "This price discount will vary. In more stable markets, it may only be 10 to 15 percent below prices from three years ago; in markets more devastated by the recession, it may need to be as high as 40 percent."

Above all, while it's probably wise to compromise and sweeten the deal for the seller, proper timing and a shrewd strategy are important.

"To give in too much too soon may send the wrong message that the seller is desperate, and can be a bad negotiating tactic," says Miron-Schleider. "No negotiation is successful unless every party walks away feeling like they got something out of it."

While this may be a tough market for sellers to walk away feeling even slightly victorious, Leah Gerstner, vice president of public affairs at American Express, says that there are some signs of optimism. Although two-thirds of those polled in the Amex survey feel that a seller's market is more than a year away, affluent and young professional respondents' confidence in their ability to get their desired asking price in today's market has increased from 40 percent in 2010 to 50 percent in 2011.
