CONWAY — “We achieved what we wanted — we got everyone’s attention and opened up a dialogue on the river — maybe even a Pandora’s box, but it has gotten
everyone talking about the river.” That’s what Saco River beach user Trina Jones said following a sit-in protest she helped to organize Saturday morning, held at the canoe put-in on the western bank of the Saco near First Bridge off River Road in North Conway.
One outcome of the protest were many responses posted on The Conway Daily Sun’s Facebook page, as well as in the paper’s “Tele-Talk” question that is printed in Tuesday’s paper.
they don't because he feels the checkpoints violate motorists' constitutional rights. At the request of Rep. Norman Tregenza (R-Madison), sheriff Christopher Conley arranged for several law enforcement officers to attend Monday's county delegation
meeting. Wakefield police chief Ken Fifield said his agency will hold a checkpoint on Route 16 in August. Wakefield runs the checkpoint once per year for four hours.

Still leader of the band at 100
NEW ORLEANS (NY Times) — At midnight last Saturday, friends and well-wishers sang “Happy Birthday” to the trumpet player who led the band that night at the Palm Court Jazz Cafe. When they finished, the trumpet player turned to a few young women sitting behind him. “Have you ever kissed a 100-year-old man?” he asked. The next night, jazz royalty from around the city turned out for Lionel Ferbos’s birthday party, amazed that one of their colleagues could have made it a full century. The wide Ferbos brood of tan-skinned Creoles with thin faces, pointy noses and impossible grace dominated the room, but men in seersucker suits with white straw hats and other appropriate characters filled it out. It being New Orleans, there was also a sparkly gold top hat, a red feathered sash and copious fleurs-de-lis. Ferbos himself, with a brown suit, thick plastic glasses, deep jowls and bushy eyebrows, held court in the middle of the room, collecting birthday cards and hundred-dollar bills to pin to his chest in the New Orleans birthday tradition. After a little while, he took the stage the way he has done every Saturday night for two decades, crooning old standards in a smooth, muddy voice. “It’s the same music,” he said. “We’re playing the same numbers we were playing 80 years ago.”

Senate and House split on debt limit
––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– WORLD/NATION–––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––
WASHINGTON (NY Times) — The Democratic Senate and Republican House put themselves on a legislative collision course Monday as they moved forward with significantly different plans on how to raise the debt limit and avert a possible federal default next week. House Republican leaders pushed for a vote last Wednesday on a two-step plan that would allow the federal debt limit to immediately be raised by about $1 trillion
and tie a second increase next year to the ability of a new joint Congressional committee to produce more deficit reduction. But top Senate Democrats called the proposal a “non-starter” and said they would advance their own plan to reduce the deficit by $2.7 trillion and raise the debt ceiling until after next year’s elections, saying it met the conditions that Republicans had laid down during the ongoing debt fight. “We’re about to go over a cliff here,” Sena-
tor Harry Reid, the Nevada Democrat who serves as majority leader, said Monday afternoon as he outlined his proposal. He said that Republicans were essentially attempting to embarass President Obama in the middle of the 2012 election year by forcing another debt limit showdown and that Democrats would not go along with any plan that does not guarantee a debt limit increase through next year.
After long wait, same-sex Norway suspect may couples marry in New York have had accomplices NEW YORK (NY Times) — Hundreds of gay and lesbian couples, from retirees in Woodstock to college students in Manhattan, rushed to tiny town halls and big city clerks’ offices across New York to wed in the first hours of legal same-sex marriage on Sunday, turning a slumbering summer day into an emotional celebration. They arrived by subway cars and stretch limousines, with children and with grandparents, in matching sequined ties and pinstriped suits, to utter words that
once seemed unimaginable: I do. Even those who had been together for decades, watching same-sex marriage become legal in surrounding states but suffer rejection in New York, said there was something unexpectedly moving and affirming about having their unions recognized by the state in which they live. “We feel a little more human today,” Ray Durand, 68, said moments after marrying his partner, Dale Shields, 79, whom he met 42 years ago by a jukebox in a West Village bar.
OSLO (NY Times) — The 32-year-old man accused of devastating twin attacks in Norway now maintains that two cells of extremists collaborated with him, court officials said here Monday as they ordered solitary confinement for the suspect. The police also significantly reduced the confirmed death toll in the Friday attacks to 76 instead of 93 — still one of the worst mass killings in postwar Europe. The defendant, Anders Behring Breivik, appeared at a closed arraignment hearing here as Norwegians paused in grief and self-examination for a minute’s silence to mourn the victims from the summer camp shooting rampage and bombing in downtown Oslo. Hundreds of ordinary Norwegians filled the narrow streets outside the Oslo courthouse, some shouting angrily at cars they thought might have been carrying Mr. Breivik into the back entrance for his appearance.

Please reconsider fifth football coach To the editor: Football season at Kennett High School begins Aug. 10. What a wonderful thing to do on a Friday night. Students, parents, past players, and members of our community all meet at the Gary Millen Stadium to cheer the boys to victory. Last year we had a number of memorable games. Who would ever forget the victory over Plymouth ending their 57-game winning streak? Boy did the Eagles play their hardest and with heart. What a sight to see, all the team players lined up in their uniforms whether they were on the JV team or the Freshman team, they were there each week cheering their teammates on, belonging to the team. Each home game, the spirit of Kennett and the players thrilled more than 1,000 people who witnessed that win and others during the 2010 season. And so another season is upon us. The football team has eight coaches, five paid for by the school budget, one funded by the boosters, and two volunteer positions. This year Coach Day retired and his position became vacant. The school board voted in June to fill this position by a vote of 6-1. Then the discussions began regarding the need for this fifth paid coach. They discussed the need for equality among all sports teams but they didn’t discuss the sport itself and why these coaches are needed. And they missed the bottom line; that of the safety for our children. At the July 12 meeting, they voted for filling this position, but it failed by a vote of 3-3. Football is a high contact sport. It is important to have proper training in tackling and blocking in order to minimize the possibility of injury. We currently have 75 students signed up this year. There is no other sport where you have 22 kids line up, face
each other and at the snap of a ball, push, shove, block and tackle each other. The safety of our children should have been the main topic of whether to decrease the coaching staff of this sport. The coaches invest a lot of their time into these teams; the varsity team, the special teams, the JV team, and the freshman team and they are very passionate about their role. They all monitor the team members during practices and at games. Their time and effort given to this sport is more than anyone can see. The school board should also consider that the football games bring in approximately $10,000 in gate fees each year (85-90 percent from the football games) which is used for uniforms, equipment and expenses for all sports teams. And they should also know that through the football boosters, the community contributes approximately $10,000 by purchasing advertisement in the football team program, buying the Eagles gold cards, and supporting the team at the concession stand. This money is used to pay for one coach and used to purchase needed uniforms and safety equipment for the team. The football boosters also fund scholarships for graduating seniors. I urge the school board to reconsider your decision regarding hiring the vacant assistant varsity football coach and add it to your agenda for the next school board meeting. Yes, the co-curricular committee does have a hard job in determining the proper distribution of school funds amongst the sports, but please, look at each sport separately and determine the need of each sport. The football team does need these coaches; it’s for the safety of our children. Susan Lautenschlager North Conway

Tele-Talk
Is the Saco River overused, and, if so, what should be done about it? Yes, it's overused, but if Mr. Businessman can make money, it will just get worse. They don't care. They just smile all the way to the bank. The whole town has been overused, overbuilt. Thank you, town planners. Charge an extra $5 per boat so there is money at the end of the season to clean up the mess from the people who don't live here and don't care. I take that back. Some of the people who live here don't care either. One thing that gets on my nerves is the canoe launch by the police station — all the garbage my wife and I pick up all the time from down there when we take our dogs for a walk. The canoe rental companies should ask permission from the town to build their own canoe launching area near the bridge. Also in today's world of the Obama generation are full of lowlifes who have no sense of responsibility. The river is only overused by this class of person. Otherwise, there's no problem. I think it was important that we had this protest. The commercial rental companies are taking away the beaches. Rental companies do make a lot of money, and they must clean up the rivers weekly. The local citizens do volunteer and clean up the filth along the river regularly. Rental companies need to educate their customers, make a fine for littering and supply trash bags. The rivers are a natural resource, and we must keep them clean. Carry in and carry out, without any excuses. This is Betty from Conway, New Hampshire. The canoe rental companies are a business. I agree with selectman Dave Weathers that they should purchase land to drop off and pick up their customers. The town of Conway has only two or three tiny beaches that should be used by the swimmers. You don't see an ice cream stand or taco stand on these little beaches. They are in a commercial district, as should be the canoe livery business. Yes, the Saco River is overcrowded, but there isn't much to prevent it. But the access problem must be improved. This is Barbara in Center Conway. This is Katy with FAST Taxi. Early Saturday morning I saw Katrina Jones and she said, "Are you going to come to my sit-in?" Of course, I'm from the '60s generation and I love sit-ins. So I went down to the beach, and frankly I had not had a chance to read the paper in several weeks, I've been so busy. Consequently, I was part of the sit-in to tell people they want the beach back. Well, taking the beach back to me meant remove the boulders so I could get my boat with my car closer to the water. I would never tell people don't bring your boat to the water. That's one of my main passions, and I encourage as many people as possible to get on the water. In fact, I hope to get there today. As long as people carry in and carry out their garbage, and are respectful of other people, and don't do anything lewd, crude or anything you wouldn't want your own child, or mother, or grandmother to see, I think everybody should be welcome. So if my picture appears in the paper as part of the sit-in, I was hoping that selectmen would remove the rocks that took my beach away so I couldn't get my boat closer. Everybody's welcome on the river. There's no such thing as overuse if you take care of not abusing the water. Hope you have a great day. See you on the river. On Friday the 22nd, I was driving on my way home from Memorial Hospital down West Side, and on the First Bridge was one awful mess. Canoes, doubleparked vehicles on bridge, cars off the side. I had to go around a pickup with a type of trailer on back on the double yellow on the bridge. If someone doesn't get killed in this mess or a serious accident, it will be a miracle. Time was about 11:30 a.m. That's a very, very interesting Tele-Talk question. The Saco River is definitely overused. And my suggestion will be: Ban all alcohol and drinking from the river. That may reflect anger on the part of merchants who sell alcohol, but I think that would clean up a lot. As far as the suggestion that people who don't like the filth can do community service and volunteer on a clean-up crew, how about some of the canoe places having, we'll say, a $500 donation, and that be given to people to clean the river up. But the best suggestion I have is ban all drinking all the time on the river. I live in Fryeburg, and boy do I ever know what I'm talking
about. And am I ever glad that police are taking an active part in this. This is Liz from North Conway. A few days ago I saw four big men taking a bath in the Saco River with a bar of soap, sticking the soap down the back of their pants. Very disgusting. I asked them to please stop; it wasn't going to biodegrade. I had to say it about four times. So, yeah, it's getting hand, but I don't think it's us versus them with the rental companies because really the rental companies also want a clean river because it impedes their business if the river gets so gross that nobody wants to go anyway. It's a win-win if we educate people to be more environmentally conscious and considerate. On the river question, I don't think it's overused. It's there for everybody to use, and I think everybody ought to if there are problems just get some people together and have a meeting. But I do believe the canoe companies ought to get together and try to find another spot instead of trying to come in and step on everybody that's trying to use that tiny beach at First Bridge. And I think the town really is being overprotective of this new building. So I think the canoe companies ought to be able to use the other side. I don't think it's that big a deal on the town being able to get in and out to their building. Anyway, I hope they can come to a solution. I work at Indian Acres, and one only has come down there on a weekend and just observe, because we're right on the river, how disgusting it is. Canoers are loud, obnoxious, most of the time drunk — not all of them, obviously, but too many of them. We have to have a patrol down there. We've had the cops down probably three times this past weekend. They litter, obscene language, you name it. It's pretty sad. It is a sacred river and it's being disrespected, so something needs to be done. My name is Ethan, I work at Northern Extremes Canoe and Kayak Rentals. I'm just calling about the protest at the bridge today. I don't think it's such a good idea, because I'm not sure they realize that that beach is an actual boat launch and that's what it's there for. There is a beach across the way on the east side of the Saco, a very big field, it holds a lot of people. If we all stopped renting boats to tourists, tourists would have a significant drop in this town. So that's my two cents. The tourists should be charged an outrageous fee to use the river so they won't come here anymore and bother me. This is Ralph in Eaton. The question of over use on the Saco River is really about access to the river. The town of Conway collects very high taxes and gives back very little to the people. Access to the Saco and also Conway Lake is poor and meager. First I ask why the town has not bought land so the residents are not crowded in to a few tiny access points. Second, since it access is so limited for the residents I believe that for-profit canoe liveries need to provide their own access. I was born and raised in North Conway. I grew up on the West Side Road too. As kids, we would walk to First Bridge and swim. It was great, until the canoe rental places took over! They block the road, sometimes you can't even drive over the bridge because people are dragging canoes, floats and tubes everywhere. Why should we give up First Bridge to the canoe rental companies, who make lots of money off this! What does the town get out of it, except congestion, trash and hazards! Let First Bridge be what it used to be. A place to swim, lay on the beach, and enjoy yourself. I always wondered why the town wouldn't let the rental companies have access to the road before the bridge that goes out to the clay banks. They could put their canoes in there, plenty of parking on the side of the beach, and maybe they could go climb the clay banks and take down those damn signs that say "Don't Climb The Bank!" Provide porta-potties there, and trash facilities, that the canoe places would be liable to take care of. I agree: Take back our First Bridge! I'm not sure if the Saco River is overused, however, I am more concerned about what type of people use it. Walking along the shore of the Saco a few weeks ago, I picked up enough trash, (deflated plastic inner tubes, and other water toys, bottles, cans, paper, etc.) to fill
the bed of my pickup truck. I simply can't imagine the type of people who would carry in a can, container or whatever, and not be willing to carry it back out. Just drop it in the water, on the shore or trail(s). These people have to simply be slobs. It's too bad to degrade such a pristine area. Lou from Bartlett. ••• The following Tele-Talk responses were posted on The Conway Daily Sun's Facebook page. Drain it and put in a strip mall. Require people to show an ID. Not a N.H. resident, go find a river in your own state! Appreciate the business; can do without the "holier than thou" attitudes, the messes left behind, the crude language and the overall stupidity. Too many drunks on the river! You should be grateful for the weekenders who come in from out of state and spend our hard earned money. They need to hire a river master (kind of like harbor master) and police the river — fee for use. Sad to hear that some river users are so disrespectful of our environment. Public bathrooms should be put in key spots. Maybe local businesses would sponsor? What's with all the hostility towards the tourists? I am not one of those tourists. I have been going up to N.H. since I was a kid, I always respect the land, and people of N.H. I love it up there, and if I could move there I would! Just build potty stations, trash collection sites, and charge a tax on canoe rentals for their cost and upkeep. I bet it makes a few bucks for the town too. Well, I'm from Fryeburg, went tubing down the river last Saturday and had a blast. But a few canoes capsized and they decided to leave all the trash floating in the river. Seeing as how we appreciate using the river every day, we cleaned the whole mess. It was a disaster but felt good to take care of our river. Too many people at the river, not sure if it's the tourists we should be blaming? I know plenty locals who spend the majority of the summer drinking on the river! Can't imagine it's only the tourists who don't clean up after themselves! We should definitely appreciate the business; they keep most of us working and paying our bills! I have friends that live on the river. They tell me that people use their property, drop all kinds of litter in the river, like chairs and coolers, and they stole their canoe. I think it should be policed. I think you can say you need to be a resident to park at certain places, but you can't keep people off the river. Will never happen Of course we all appreciate the tourists spending their money here in the valley; a lot of them have really poor attitudes. They think they can do anything they want (including breaking the law) and have no respect, thinking (and saying) we owe them for coming here. We really don't need tourists like that. Now, the ones who come here because they love our area, have respect for our beautiful valley, follow the rules — those tourists can come all they want! I've met some super rude tourists, but I've also met some really nice tourists. Every tourist on the river is more money in the valley. We are a tourist town, are we not. As you point out about the tourists, the same can be said of the locals. As a tourist, I have experienced super rude locals and super nice locals. Of course no matter what area is being discussed, Cape Cod, Washington DC, NYC, Boston, Concord, etc., the same situation exists. Public restrooms and trash receptacles strategically placed along the river would help to alleviate the problem. The tourists always complain that they spend their hard earned money here. They buy their beer in Massachusetts, bring their own canoes, camp for free on private property without permission and the locals spend the rest of the week cleaning all the garbage the tourist leave behind. There's no money being made on the river. I say ban overnight camping, and charge users a fee that would ensure that the towns along the river don't need to raise taxes to keep the river clean. see TELE-TALK page 8

Where do you spend your "hard earned money?" Not while on the Saco. Tourist stay in our hotels, eat in our Valley Originals and shop in our stores. They deserve our respect and kindness whether or not they are earning it. Perhaps the committee being formed to discuss First Bridge issues could also work on more public access points that could be policed and cleaned so it would be easier for folks to not use private property to picnic and rest. It is certainly overused. The litter and lack of recycling is clearly an issue and has been for a long time. There are some great ideas for possible solutions posted here. A river-use permit like the national forest has. You go on the river, you pay a permit fee that helps fund cleanup and patrolling of the river. You use the beaches, you pay an access fee or show your town dump permit. Again the access fees pay for upkeep and patrolling of the beaches. About the river situation. It is there to be enjoyed! Do so, but be respectful, act like adults, and clean up after yourselves. Otherwise your fun might (and should) be taken away. About the tourist situation, I know that's not what this is about, but I can't help giving my two cents. They do help our local economy, I won't argue that. My problem is with business owners and management who enable the tourists to come here and think they own us and that we can't live without them. Let's remember who is spending money at all of our stores during the times when there are no red, white, and blue license plates to be seen. It wouldn't be so bad if people didn't turn a nice day of recreation in an amazing outdoor setting into a sleazy booze fest for idiots. Let's see what the selectmen propose? How about generating some revenue for the town? Cleanup is awful putrid and outright a disgrace to the beach. Need a solution to fix the problem ASAP! Maybe the canoe rental companies should bear some responsibility in this? Since it is their livelihood. Maybe the river should be made a national monument. Does the Colorado river users have this problem?' I feel for the folks that live on the river, assuming it is a beautiful quiet place to live. Sitting on my front porch, it upsets me when the traffic is backed up 50 deep in front of the house.

town zip by at high speeds, fumes and noise waft over to kinda spoil an otherwise great day. Our representatives might ask for help on controlling the quality of life we enjoy here in the MWV, but this lot couldn't find their way out of a wet paper towel. And if they manage to break through, they would probably say they were just trying to keep their constituents informed about all the jobs they are creating or by demeaning locals who don't see their points of view. Sometimes if seems as though we are on a sinking ship, and I can tell you first hand I know about that one. Authorities are at the breaking point to ask them or us the taxpayer to pony up any more resources to control the rivers, roads or anything for that matter. Dave Robinson, Kearsarge Sun sensationalism at its best. We're not talking about tourists who shop and stay the weekend and eat out. This thread is about the tourists who come up to use the river! No one makes money off the river except the canoe rental companies. Therefore, if you don't own a canoe rental business, then we don't "need" these tourists who are young, irresponsible, selfish, and disrespectful — and that's just a start! In this case, the "we need the tourists" argument doesn't apply. Dumbest question ever. What can be done? Nothing. It is a river, it does what it wants and so do we. I'd say the river is overused and here's why: 1) There are no controls to limit the number of boats on the river. The rental companies can rent out as many boats as they are able to purchase for their fleet. 2) Most businesses are concerned with making a profit. There are few incentives for these seasonal operations to limit or control the traffic on the river. 3) Many rental companies utilize public land like it is their own (I'm thinking First Bridge and the police station) and fail to heartily focus on responsible use and leave no trace messages to their customers. 4) Many people who go on the river display rudeness, inconsideration, stupidity, irresponsibility, raucousness and terrible language. It is these individuals who make the river littered and unbearable for those of us looking to enjoy a peaceful float on a sunny day. Honestly, both locals and visitors fall in this category. So what to do: 1. Establish a daily limit for the number of boats the canoe companies can put on the river. Plenty of people put in on their own so the profit makers are adding to the overuse and crowding. 2) Do not allow private companies to make a profit by utilizsee next page

ing public land. If that means they now must purchase their own land for an access site, then so be it. Leave First Bridge to the public. 3) Require a town pass for any public parking or access along the river and provide a temporary pass option for visitors. Parking would then be on a firstcome basis. 4) You can't legislate ignorance, but you can call people on it when you see it. You can take personal action and instead of picking up after people, hold them accountable and tell them to do it. When you hear the f-bomb dropped repeatedly, tell the person to knock it off, or you call Fish and Game or the police. The Saco River is beautiful, peaceful, and certainly a natural resource to be enjoyed by everyone, but we need to protect its beauty more. This is the problem inherent with "public" property. Seeing as how the rivers are "publicly" owned, any resident or company who has taxes coercively extracted from them can lay claim to them. The canoe companies have more taxes extracted from them than the common resident, therefore critical thought would dictate that they have more claim to the rivers than the common resident. In actuality we know that this is false and the state "owns" all public property. What I am trying to say is, don't act like an entitled brat. Just in from the sit -in (protest) at First Bridge. And tell me how is it that North Conway Water Precinct gave the canoe companies permission to use their side for the day to avoid the sit-in, What about all the other days? Bottom line I think is that we need to find a balance between us the beach goers, the canoe companies, and the tourist, and where it will be a win-win for all of us. Also I just want it to be said on my behalf its not that I don't want the canoe people on the beach. I don't want them to think they can have the whole beach! The Saco River is overused if you want a nice quiet river trip. You won't find one there. It has become our version of Tijuana, a cheap place to go raise hell without any real fear of getting hassled by the cops. What
can be done? Nothing. It is a river, no one owns it, no one controls it. Canoe rentals are only a fraction of the people on the river. They bring their own canoe, put in at a public launch, and party hard and loud. If you could get the two states to ban any and all alcohol on the river, and then pony up the tax dollars to enforce it, that may knock it down a bit, but as we have seen, most legislators are really not interested in things that are not popular enough to get them reelected. The first thing that comes to mind is to have a set number of permits sold for each day on the river. Charge a usage fee for non-taxpayers using the river, which will help pay for the cleanup and create some jobs. Have the canoe and kayak rental companies pay a fee to load and unload someplace along the river to help pay for the land to be restored each
year from all the traffic. Put up portable potties along the way, have the river monitored and fine people who litter and drink. Why aren't the laws being enforced as it is? It's time to do something about it. It's been a free-for-all for far too long! So glad to hear that all went well at First Bridge. We all need to enjoy our summer days. They will quickly pass away, as will we! Let's support each other and leave a clean beautiful river after one day of use or a lifetime. The Saco River is treated like a damn amusement ride instead of a natural feature that should be appreciated and respected. The canoe rental companies should think a little less about dumping as many yahoos as possible into the water (with absurd amounts of alcohol) and more about protecting the river for long-term
use. Personally, I don't go anywhere near the popular parts of the river in the summer because it's pretty much like driving south on 16 except there are tubes and canoes everywhere instead of cars. Just another reason why I love mountain biking so much — absolutely no tourists, at least not on the trails I ride. People just need to be more responsible about enjoying the Saco. Most of the trash is from people that are out of state that don't care! It would make it unfair for locals who don't trash the Saco to enjoy it when they might have to get a permit! It should be the responsibility of the canoe/tube companies to clean the river of trash left from their customers. They're the ones making money off the river, when locals just want to enjoy it! The Saco should be free for those that can be responsible. And companies should be respon-
sible for cleanup and maintenance of launch and pick-up points. After all they do make money off putting anyone that wants to pay down the Saco. Plain and simple, private companies using public land to turn a profit with little or no regard for upkeep and maintenance is a problem the selectman can no longer ignore I watched alot of people "from away" at Wal-Mart today buying tubes to use in the river along with alcohol to consume while on the river. No private company involved there. A use permit for those who do not pay property taxes in the towns the river runs through is the appropriate way to go. They still get to use the river and we get the funds to patrol and clean it up after them. I pondered these issues all weekend. Obviously I took great offense at the people doing the sit-in
being called "dirty hippies, not responsible citizens, whiners, if you don't like it pick it up yourself," etc. I, for one, have been a business owner for 32 years, I had a store in North Conway Village for many years and enjoyed locals and visitors alike — I treated them all with respect. I still manufacture metal products for the national gift-ware industry, catalog companies, LL Bean, Internet sites, etc. The valley has been a wonderful place for us the 11 years we have been here. I do believe families who visit bring more dollars to our area, especially the ones who come every year to hike, canoe, visit attractions, etc. In my store I was really amazed at the people who came from all over the world to see the White Mountains. Positive problem solving now will ensure a good future. A polluted river full of weekend bullies will not benefit any of us.

The checkpoint will have four Wakefield officers, two sheriff's deputies and two Ossipee police officers. State troopers will follow motorists who turn around before the checkpoint. State police in "chase cars" would only have the authority to pull someone over if they see some type of violation, said Fifield. In Carroll County, a group of 14 state representatives, called the delegation, allocates money for the county budget. The county commissioners manage the money with help from department heads. Previously, the county commission had accepted a $600 federal highway safety grant that would allow sheriff's deputies to participate in the checkpoint. Tregenza read aloud the Fourth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution , which says the right against unreasonable search and seizure shall not be violated and warrants cannot be issued without probable cause supported by oath or affirmation. "The checkpoints are not consistent with the Fourth Amendment," said Tregenza. Before Tregenza could continue, delegation chair Betsy Patten (R-Moultonborough) cut him off. She instructed Tregenza to speak for himself. Tregenza readily complied. So in rephrasing, he said in his opinion the checkpoints are illegal. Fifield responded that he was probably the most constitutionally strict person in the room. He stressed every officer takes an oath to protect people's rights. Further, he said the 10th Amendment allows the states to make their own laws. In New Hampshire, the state made a law that authorizes checkpoints. "There's a misnomer here that we're doing unreasonable searches," said Fifield. "We're not doing a search. We do a vehicle stop, which doesn't take probable cause. It takes reasonable and articulable suspicion." In a phone interview, Fifield said motorists who refuse to pull over when directed to could be arrested for disobeying a police officer. Brookfield resident Ed Comeau agrees with Tregenza. Comeau films county meetings for his website Governmentoversite.com. He wondered how a judge can give a warrant if he doesn't
know who is going to be searched or the place that will be searched. As for the states' rights issue, Comeau, said slavery was once considered a states' rights issue. "People get the amendment confused," said Comeau. "You cannot take unreasonable searches out of the amendment. It's all one sentence. Notice how the founders put commas in between everything." The vehicle stops are done under the strictest guidelines of any state that allows checkpoints to occur, said Fifield. Checkpoints require a detailed application that a Superior Court judge must approve. The application is akin to a search warrant. Stops may take up to three minutes. The fact that a checkpoint will occur has to be advertised but the exact date is a secret, said Fifield. "You can call a duck a goose all day long but it doesn't make it a goose," said Fifield. "We're not doing searches." Rep. David Knox (R-Wolfeboro) wondered if the checkpoints have ever been challenged in court. Allenstown police chief Shaun Mulholland replied that a court case based in Michigan set the precedent that checkpoints are legal. A New Hampshire checkpoint that was done without proper procedures is unconstitutional. After that case, legislature filed a bill containing checkpoint standards. That bill never passed, but law enforcement came up with even more rigorous standards that exceed those of the proposed bill. Other states are much more loose. "In the state of Vermont, two officers can get together and say 'lets run a checkpoint right now' any time any place. Massachusetts is the same way; so is Florida and a number of other states" said Mulholland. "We don't allow that. You have to justify the reason you are doing the checkpoint, why the other methods are not effective, and you have to have a standard by which you do that." Mulholland said the three-minute standard was set by the Attorney General's office. He confirmed that the New Hampshire gets federal money for allowing checkpoints. In Allenstown, checkpoints usually produce about a dozen arrests out of 300 to 400 stops. Some people don't have a license. Other drivers have marijuana and cocaine in plain view. see CHECKPOINTS page 12

PROTEST from page one
The uproar follows a meeting by Conway selectmen June 21 with representatives of a local canoe and kayak rental livery to discuss put-in problems and possible solutions. Selectmen at that meeting agreed to appoint a committee to address access issues after the season. Now, with the week’s events, town manager Earl Sires said selectmen’s agenda on Tuesday will include appointing representatives to that committee. “They’ll be looking to appoint representatives from the board, as well as from local liveries and from the public at large,” said Sires Monday. Another improvement has already taken place as a result of the discussion, according to Sires. Canoe liveries last weekend were allowed to use North Conway Water Precinct land on the south side of River Road for a put in-in near the precinct’s new pump house and newly-built well No. 6. That’s where liveries in past years were able to gain access to the river but had been barred from using it until last weekend. Now, say Sires and North Conway Water Precinct superintendent David Bernier, with construction on the new pump house and well nearly completed, the public and the liveries will be able to use that access for the remainder of the season. “I called David [of the water precinct] regarding the issue, and he agreed to give us access,” said Sires. Bernier said his concern was protection of the precinct’s water quality near that area. “Earl called me and asked if we had a problem in allowing use there on the south side, and I said no, especially since we’re talking weekends when our construction is winding down and our larger equipment has pretty much come and gone,” said Bernier Monday. He said he would be speaking with his precinct commissioners at their meeting this week about the access issue. “You’ve got many competing interests down there — the local canoers, the livery owners and
Wakefield police will not be "fishing" at the checkpoints for small violations like a broken tail light, said Fifield. Last year, 284 car stops were made, of which 15 people were asked to do a field sobriety test. Five people were arrested in the checkpoint. Three arrests were drug-related and two were arrested for open container. Some motorists had been drinking before driving but not enough to be considered impaired. Fifield said there's no telling if those people would have become even more intoxicated later had they not passed though a checkpoint. The chase cars produced about 25 stops and yielded two arrests in Wakefield, said Fifield. One arrest was for DWI and drugs and the other was for operation after suspension or revocation of license. Fifield would feel "negligent" if there weren't any checkpoints because drunk drivers clearly have an incentive to turn around. "If we did it blindly (without prior notice) you could double those numbers but the fact is we're keeping people off the road by telling people we're going to have a checkpoint," said Fifield. "Our ultimate goal is not how many arrests we get. Our ultimate goal is how many people don't die." When motorists approach a checkpoint, they will see signs warning them to prepare to enter the checkpoint. Motorists are instructed to slow down to 15 mph. There are six slots for incoming cars — three slots are on each side of the road. Motorists are directed to enter the checkpoint as slots open up. Each police cruiser has a video camera, as does the state's DWI van. Rep. Chris Ahlgren (R-Wolfeboro) asked how many checkpoints would be permitted in a given time frame. Fifield replied there's no set number but the U.S. Constitution requires the amount of searches to be reasonable. In Wakefield a checkpoint every day would be unreasonable. Rep. Frank McCarthy (R-Conway) asked what would happen if a motorist admitted to being drunk before a Miranda warning is given. Fifield said the motorist would be arrested. Miranda warnings are given after a person is under arrest. Before that, any information that's freely given can be used in court. The Wakefield Police Department distributes surveys to 100 motorists who pass through the stop. About 98 percent of respondents say they approve of the checkpoint, said Fifield.

put-in; porta-toilets at the put-ins paid for by liveries — Bernier said he is sure many topics will be on the table, and given the OK of his commissioners, he is expecting that the precinct may be playing a larger role in those discussions, especially since it owns the land on both sides of River Road. The precinct’s old pump house was located on the north side of the road. With the pump house now relocated to the south side, livery owner Peter Gagne of Northern Extremes at the June 21 meeting had broached whether selectmen would allow vehicles to use the town’s land there at Hussey Field for turnarounds, but selectmen led by chair and former soils expert David Weathers had balked, fearing erosion concerns.#{newline} Sires said the committee is expected to explore all options. “The underlying issue is: the precinct owns the south side of the road, and a 100-by-100-foot postage stamp lot where the well house stood. One thing I am sure they will be looking at,” said Sires, “is whether it makes sense to make one side all wholly owned by the town, and whether that would help there.” He said it’s also a matter of what can and cannot be done, concerning state concerns about public access. Trash talk Many of the respondees to the Sun’s Facebook and “Tele-Talk” voiced concerns not only about access and the impact of the liveries using the beach as its put-in area, but also about trash, lack of public
“We were talking only about access for beach-goers — everyone else has brought up the issues of the trash and overuse. So, I think we have gotten people talking, and that’s good.” rest rooms, and disrespect for the upkeep of the river, whether from tourists or locals. Surcharges for river craft renters were among the ideas broached as a means to raise funds to help police and clean the river. Jones — organizer of the protest — said she was joined by “a dozen or half a dozen people” in Saturday morning’s protest, less than what she had envisioned, but she added that she is heartened to have seen the response from the public overall. “We were talking only about access for beach-goers — everyone else has brought up the issues of the trash and overuse. So, I think we have gotten people talking, and that’s good,” said Jones, whose group held up signs that said, “We want our beach back, please.” Because the precinct had allowed the livery owners to use the south side for access, the majority of the boat owners used that entry to get to the river — although some also used the beach route. “With that access,” said Jones, “it kind of stole our thunder, but that was OK: there were still a lot of boats out there on the river, and we got people’s attention.”

Tamworth singer, songwriter, author Bill Morrissey dies at 59 Bill Morrissey
BY TOM EASTMAN THE CONWAY DAILY SUN
TAMWORTH — Singer/songwriter, fiction author and poetic student of humanity Bill Morrissey died while on tour in Georgia Saturday. He was 59. An autopsy was performed Sunday,
according to a family friend, but no cause of death has yet been released. A funeral for the writer of such New Hampshire classics as “Live Free Or Die” and the Robert Frost-like “Birches” is set for St. Joseph's Catholic Church see next page

in Ossipee Friday at 11 a.m., with a reception at the church prior to the Mass at 9:30 a.m. Morrissey had been in frail health in recent years and had been diagnosed as suffering from bipolarity, as well as other battles, but was “enjoying getting to go back on tour,” according to friend Annie Provenzano of Tamworth. “We don't know what happened, but they say he died in his hotel room. He had a lot of damage to his heart, and it was probably heart failure of some sort,” said Provenzano Monday. “We were all very pleased to see him getting back out there, playing his music. He had played in Tennessee and was in Georgia.” She said a memorial concert will be held at a later date to celebrate Morrissey's life. “Bill's friend, Cliff Eberhardt, is putting together that show and we will let everyone know about it,” said Provenzano, who with friend Raetha Stoddard brought Morrissey to the region to perform in their former Drylongso coffee house series in the 1990s. Morrissey — then living in Massachussetts and undergoing a divorce — loved it so much he moved here, said Provenzano. “Bill moved to Tamworth in 1997. He just loved the character and the small-towness, of being able to walk into the Other Store and have everyone ask him, 'Hey Bill, how's it going? How's the tour going,' things like that. He really got a kick out of there being a store, and then there being the other store, which was called, 'The Other Store,' ” related a saddened Provenzano, who is the post mistress in Silver Lake and who says she spoke with Morrissey “every single day.” Longtime friend and fellow songsmith Cormac McCarthy of South Berwick, Maine, remembered his friend as a true poet, with a sharp wit and a keen ability to pare down songs and emotions to their essence.

“Bill had so many talents,” said McCarthy, who first met Morrissey when both were students in college at Plymouth State. “He was blessed with a wicked and quick wit, but he also had a lot of depth and this analytical thing. A lot of comics are just funny — but Bill had more of the Mark Twain depth to his humor and his songs. A lot of his shows would make you feel the way I have been feeling a lot these past few days since learning of his passing — laughing, when I recall some of our youthful shenanigans, and crying.” McCarthy said he and his late songwriting friend shared a penchant for always trying to get the words just right, along with the music — but that Morrisey's words always stood on their own, even without the music. “I hear a lot of people quoting lines from his songs in conversation, and that's always a good thing,” said McCarthy. “His lyrics look good on paper. Me, I let the words kind of drop onto the music, but with Bill's, a lot of his words read very beautifully, without the music.” George Cleveland, executive director of the Gibson Center for Senior Services in North Conway, and a resident of Tamworth, often played music by Morrissey and interviewed him when he worked for WMWV 93.5-FM of North Conway. “Mark Johnson [WMWV's program manager] once had him on for 90 minutes for an interview, playing music and talking. He just had a natural gift, not only for songwriting, but for story telling. I am a huge fan of his book, 'Edson,' ” said Cleveland, who is also a close friend of McCarthy's. “As an artist,” added Cleveland, “he had one of the biggest hearts of anyone around. He was incredibly giving, even when it wasn't convenient. But he would never let you know that it was inconvenient for him to help out, whether it was a benefit concert or something else.” see MORRISSEY page 21

The Saco Valley Swim Club opens season with a win BY LLOYD JONES THE CONWAY DAILY SUN
The Saco Valley Swim Club opened its race season in style July 8 by winning a tri meet at Brewster Beach in Wolfeboro. The hometown boys and girls combined to score 266 points to top Wolfeboro, 209; and Oyster Ricer, 192. “It was a total team effort on the part of our swimmers and parents,” Coach Maury McKinney said. “You can see the development in our team. Our kids swam faster, had fun and conducted themselves with confidence. Almost all of our swimmers posted multiple ‘personal best’ times with may trying new events for the first time. We entered 16 relays which was a new meet record for us.” Coach McKinney was pleased with the performances of all the swimmers and the support of team parents. SVST supplied seven timers and two bullpen assistants. Thank you to timers Mark Griffin, Sean McGrath, Steve Bush, Enis Arriaga, Stephanie Sinkus, Dan Curry and Richard Fortin. In the bullpen getting all of the swimmers to the right place at the right time were Val Rothen and Sue Thurston. I very much appreciate parent involvement in these meets as they would not run without it.

Almost all of our swimmers posted multiple ‘personal best’ times with may trying new events for the first time. We entered 16 relays which was a new meet record for us.” SVST was the overall winner of the meet. “We won the boys side against Wolfeboro and Oyster River,” Coach McKinney said. “We lost close contests on the girls side but prevailed when you combined our boys and girls scores. Our girls should not be disappointed as both Wolfeboro and Oyster River have had strong girls teams for many years. Our girls faced tough competition but showed they can handle it. Meet results included: • Zoe McKinney (12) was second in the 11-12 200yard freestyle in 3:04.56; and third in the 50 butterfly (40.13); and third in the 50 breaststroke (46.00). • Saco Valley won the girls 8 and Under 100-yard medley (Kathryn Hawkes, Rose Sinkus, Ella Chandler and Ellen Taylor), 2:02. SVSC (Mckenzie Carr, Madeline McGrath, Jillian Loehr and Olivia Curry) also took second, 2:41.89. • Saco Valley won the boys 8 and Under 100-yard medley (Jimmy McCarthy, Taylor Rothen, Edward Thurston and Ethan Baillargeon), 2:08.13. • Saco Valley was fourth in the girls 9-10 200yard medley (Purlin Twig-Smith, Mia Plante, Sylvie Brustin and Annie Loehr), 4:35.62 (3:20.15 by Wolfeboro won). • Saco Valley won the girls 11-12 200-yard medley (Jasmine Schmidt, Kelsey Bush, McKinney and Emma Plante), 3:07.85. • Saco Valley was second in the girls 15-18 200yard medley (Anya Steesy, Molly Gaschott, Mabel Albert and Bryanna Carroll), 3:04.56 (Oyster River won, 2:43.72). • Saco Valley won the boys 9-10 200-yard medley (Garrett Shafer, Aidan Hagerty, Jared Carr and see next page

ters in Conway from 1936 to 1938 and was a member of the 4H Club on the West Side from 1928 to 1933. While a resident of the Mountain View she was referred to as “Miss Hollywood” and she enjoyed writing poetry. Besides her husband of Center Conway, the family includes, three sons, Richard V.

Chainsaw Safety Workshop Offered at ‘Farming in Your Backyard’ Saturday OSSIPEE — If you are planning to buy a chainsaw or currently own one you don’t want to miss this free workshop. Anyone interested in learning more about maintenance and safety procedures to follow when operating a chainsaw should join John Nute, UNH Cooperative Extension Forester at County Farm Day on July 30. There will be two chainsaw safety workshops at 10 a.m. and at 12:30 p.m. The workshop is part of the many programs being offered at the Carroll County Farm Day in Ossipee. Topics that will be covered include personal protective equipment, safe chainsaw handling, felling trees, and working up firewood. The program is geared toward backyard firewood cutters. Nute will also have information avail-
able about chain filing and saw maintenance as well as things to consider when purchasing a chainsaw. If you are interested in taking better care of your woodland or cutting your own trees for firewood safely, you should not miss this free program. Chainsaws are great tools for working in your woodlot. They also have the potential to cause serious injuries. According to the U.S. Consumer Products Safety Commission, there were over 32,000 injuries reported that were related to chainsaws in 2004. Potential injuries can be minimized by using proper protective equipment and safe operating procedures. Farming in Your Backyard has something for everyone. Adults can choose from a number of other workshops, including blueberry production, food
preservation, herbs, raising swine and chickens. For landowners interested in managing a woodlot there will be a portable sawmill demonstration. Children ages 8 to 18 can participate in the pet show sponsored by the Carroll County 4-H program. Kids who love animals can also enjoy the presentation on Angora rabbits. You don’t need to be a farmer or even a gardener to enjoy many of the activities. There will be a farmers market where you will find fresh locally grown foods along with hand crafted products from surrounding cottage industries. Those who enjoy the fall task of piling up firewood for the winter can enter the firewood toss. For kids young and old there will be a session where they can build a birdhouse as well as take an old
fashioned wagon ride. Also visit with a forest ranger and learn about preventing and controlling wildfires. Food venders will be serving refreshments and raffles sold for local products. County Farm Day will be held at the Carroll County Farm complex on 30 County Farm Road off Route 171 in Ossipee. This event is sponsored by Carroll County, the University of New Hampshire Cooperative Extension and the New Hampshire Farm Bureau Federation of Carroll County. For more information about the County Farm Day you can see the full schedule of events on the UNH Cooperative Extension Carroll County calendar on the web at extension.unh.edu/Counties/ Carroll/Carroll.htm or contact the office in Conway at 447-3834 for assistance.

Bill Morrissey’s songs “have the force of poetry,” a New York Times writer once said. MORRISSEY from page 15
Mark Johnson of WMWV dedicated the noon hour broadcast to Morrissey Monday. “He was really honest,” said Johnson, “as a songwriter and author. He was really good at describing New Hampshire and New Hampshire people. He just knew so much — not only about New Hampshire and the way people lived, but also about all kinds of music: jazz, rock, folk, the blues. You always loved talking with him, because he knew so much.” *** Morrissey, who was a resident of New Hampshire, was born in Hartford, Conn. He released 10 solo albums between 1984 and 2007 as well as a set with Greg Brown in 1993. Fading mill towns were a favorite topic of his, as detailed in such songs such as “Small Town on the River,” Night Shift,” and “The Packard Company.” Songwriter Tom Rush, who was managing Morrissey in the 1980s, called him “a true intellect, a literary
Northland
writer,” who deserved comparisons with John Steinbeck. Rush talked of Morrissey’s showstopping performance at the Newport Folk Festival in 1985, saying “One of the exciting things about Newport in the old days was to see who’d emerge as the major new artist. Bill won the brass ring that day. He really did steal the show.” Morrissey received two Grammy nominations. As detailed on Morrissey’s website, Stephen Holden of the New York Times once wrote, "Mr. Morrissey's songs have the force of poetry — a terseness, precision of detail and a tone of laconic understatement that relate his lyrics to the fiction of writers like Raymond Carver and Richard Ford." On its Facebook page, the Iron Horse lamented the loss of Morrissey: “We are sad to note the passing of our friend Bill Morrissey [Saturday], age 59. Bill was an Iron Horse MVP for years; part of the generation of artists including Shawn Colvin, Greg Brown, John Gorka, and a handful of others that were like family to the club and embodied the Iron Horse ethos; in fact created it.”

Norma (Morton) Dondero Norma (Morton) Dondero, 85, died Saturday July 23, 2011 at Mineral Springs in North Conway after a prolonged illness. She was born in Andover, Maine on Jan. 8, 1926. She moved to Bartlett and graduated from Kennett High School in 1944. She married Louis J. Dondero, Jr. on the 26th of June in 1944. She and Louis started their married life in the Dondero Block in North Conway, later they moved to Sunderland and then to Rutland, Vt. It was in Rutland where Norma started her fabric shop. They moved back to North Conway in 1975 and took over the operation of the family building on Main Street. Norma opened Dondero’s Fabric Shop and operated it into the late 1990s. Then she retired and enjoyed reading and was well known among the early morning walkers around the village. Norma leaves behind her two sons, Mitchell Dondero, of Brownfield, Maine, and Mathew Dondero, of Eliot, Maine; two grandchildren, Jennifer Dondero, of Old Orchard Beach, Maine, and Andrew Dondero, of Dover; two sisters, Marilyn Bennett and Althea Hall, both of Conway; her brother, Peter Morton, of Bartlett and many nieces and nephews and their children. Funeral services will be held Wednesday, July 27, at 11 a.m. in the Glen Community Baptist Church in Glen with the Rev. William B. Rose Jr., pastor, officiating.

DILBERT

By Holiday Mathis SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You’ll be in the mood to do an inventory of your material possessions. The mood strikes because you’re getting ready to change things -- to let go of the old and acquire something new. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Many people never dream of far-off places, preferring to stick close to all that is known of the world. You are not like “many people.” No matter what you know of the world, you yearn to know more. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You have a talent for managing a large group. You might even be in charge of feeding a crowd in the near future, and you will alleviate future stress by getting a lot of the planning done now. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Delving into the far reaches of your material possessions will reconnect you with your past. There’s so much memorabilia in your closet, garage or storage area that you could make a museum out of it. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You strive to create an atmosphere of ease around you. You are very perceptive now, too, so you’ll notice when someone is uncomfortable, and you’ll try to help. TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (July 26). Loved ones make you proud as they reflect your values and credit you for their victories. January starts a positive turn of events in your love life. You’ll be influenced and helped by a powerful man in November. You’ll find a clever way to rearrange your finances in 2012 and afford something you’ve wanted. Aries and Scorpio people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 13, 2, 50, 21 and 15.
Get Fuzzy
ARIES (March 21-April 19). You may have so much deskwork to do that exercising your body seems like something that could only happen in your fantasy life. And until you change your priorities, that may be the case. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). The people in your environment now may not be related, but they sure act as though they are. They fight and boss each other around like siblings. You’ll play the parent. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Many people witness the same event, and each one will remember it differently. You are paying close attention to the nuances of human interaction, so your version will be the most accurate recollection. CANCER (June 22-July 22). Sometimes you’re happier observing the goings on instead of participating in them. Both roles are necessary and useful, so go with what you feel. You have a right to interact in your preferred mode. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You’ll encounter someone who wants to stand over your shoulder and comment on everything you do. If you can get past his or her annoying ways, you will find that this person actually has valid input. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You have stories to tell about the memorable events of the past four months. And you’ll be around people who will benefit from hearing your retelling of recent history. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You’re a master at conflict resolution -- in theory. It’s easy to see what others need to do in order to get along. Apply the same objectivity to your own scene, and you’ll have the ticket to happiness.

Today is Tuesday, July 26, the 207th day of 2011. There are 158 days left in the year. Today’s Highlight in History: On July 26, 1775, Benjamin Franklin became America’s first postmaster-general. On this date: In 1788, New York became the 11th state to ratify the U.S. Constitution. In 1847, the western African country of Liberia, founded by freed American slaves, declared its independence. In 1908, U.S. Attorney General Charles J. Bonaparte ordered creation of a force of special agents that was a forerunner of the Federal Bureau of Investigation. In 1947, President Harry S. Truman signed the National Security Act, which established the National Military Establishment (later renamed the Department of Defense). In 1952, Argentina’s first lady, Eva Peron, died in Buenos Aires at age 33. In 1971, Apollo 15 was launched from Cape Kennedy on America’s fourth manned mission to the moon. Photographer Diane Arbus died in New York at age 48. In 1986, kidnappers in Lebanon released the Rev. Lawrence Martin Jenco, an American hostage held for nearly 19 months. American statesman W. Averell Harriman died in Yorktown Heights, N.Y., at age 94. In 1989, Mark Wellman, a 29-year-old paraplegic, reached the summit of El Capitan in Yosemite (yoh-SEHM’-uh-tee) National Park after hauling himself up the granite cliff six inches at a time over nine days. In 1990, President George H.W. Bush signed the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990. One year ago: A Spanish man who’d undergone the world’s first full face transplant appeared before TV cameras; the 31-yearold, identified only as “Oscar,” thanked his doctors and the family of the donor. Today’s Birthdays: Actress Marjorie Lord is 93. Actor James Best is 85. Singer Dobie Gray is 71. Actress-singer Darlene Love is 70. Singer Brenton Wood is 70. Rock star Mick Jagger is 68.

UNHAPPY WOMAN PONDERS HOW TO SMILE FOR FACEBOOK FRIENDS
DEAR ABBY: I reluctantly signed onto Facebook at the urging of my siblings. The problem is, I am now receiving many replies from people I knew back in college and elsewhere saying how glad they are they have found me, how much they have missed me, and that they would like to catch up. It made me remember that I was very well-liked then, and how when I graduated from college with honors people said I had a bright future. But now I am nowhere near what I used to be when those people knew me. My life has not been very productive or happy since I moved from the East Coast to California. I am married to a wonderful man. We have no children, and I have had only sporadic employment over the past few years due to treatment for depression and alcoholism. I’m trying to get better, but it’s hard. Most of those who have written tell me about their children, grandchildren and the career progress they have made in their lives. I can’t tell them any of that about myself. Please don’t tell me to get counseling. I am. And don’t tell me to go to AA meetings. I do. And don’t tell me to take medication, because I’m doing that, too. Just tell me what do I write to all those old friends who seem to have achieved many of the conventional things in life that I haven’t. I don’t want to say nothing, and I don’t want to lie, but I also don’t want to tell them the depressing truth, either. -- UNSURE OUT WEST DEAR UNSURE: Crafting upbeat prose can be difficult when someone is as depressed as you appear to be. But you are getting the help you need and working to pull yourself out of it, and for that I applaud you.
Before composing your Facebook entry, take stock of the positive things you have going for you and make a list. You are married to a wonderful man, you haven’t had to work over the past few years, but it hasn’t caused serious economic hardship -- although you wouldn’t mind re-entering the workforce at some point. If you volunteer in the community, have read an amusing or uplifting poem, mention that, too. In other words, “spin.” That’s what everyone else on social media does, so don’t feel guilty about it. DEAR ABBY: I have been dating my boyfriend, “Mark,” for five years and we have talked about marriage, though we are not officially engaged. For sentimental and financial reasons, I would like to wear my deceased grandmother’s engagement ring. I worry that it may appear presumptuous if I were to ask my father for the ring, especially because I’m technically not engaged yet. I have considered asking my sister if she would suggest the idea to Dad, but I’m not sure about that either. I’m nervous that Mark might go ahead and buy me a ring in the meantime if Dad hasn’t already offered him the ring. Then I wouldn’t have the chance to honor my grandmother’s memory. How would you suggest I let my wishes be known? -- JITTERY FUTURE BRIDE IN BOSTON DEAR JITTERY: Let your wishes be known by telling your boyfriend, “Mark, it has always been my dream to wear my grandmother’s engagement ring.” That will let him know he won’t have to buy one for you. But do not approach your father asking for the ring until you ARE “technically” engaged.

SVST is a member of the Granite State Swimming Association (GSSA) which is a summer recreational league consisting of about 30 swim teams from Massachusetts, Maine, New Hampshire, and Vermont. The purpose of the GSSA is to promote and develop competitive swimming, in the belief that this activity offers a positive means for enhancing athletic ability and character development. There are many meets scheduled throughout the state during July in preparation for the GSSA State Meet in Dover on Aug. 7-8. To be eligible for the state meet SVST must compete in three meets and individual swimmers must compete in two meets. SVST anticipates sending a strong contingent of swimmers to the state meet this year.
