Presidential hopeful Johnson predicts economic doom unless budget is cut BY DAYMOND STEER THE CONWAY DAILY SUN
Gary Johnson
CONWAY — A severe economic collapse is imminent but that disaster can be mitigated with a balanced federal budget in 2013, GOP presidential hopeful Gary Johnson told The Conway Daily Sun during a visit last week. Johnson is a two-term former governor of New Mexico who served from 1994 to 2003. Previously,
he grew a handyman business into one of the largest construction firms in New Mexico, which tends to vote for Democrats. Now, the country is on the verge of a catastrophic crisis in the bond market, which could create hyper inflation. Johnson says there's just no way the U.S. can repay $14 trillion in debt if the country continues on its current path. More than half of Amerisee JOHNSON page 8
Board member second-guessing decision to cut school custodian
Klement: ‘I voted for this in a weak-kneed moment’ BY LLOYD JONES THE CONWAY DAILY SUN
CONWAY — Dick Klement, of the Conway School Board, hopes he and his colleagues weren't being "penny wise and pound foolish" when they voted last month to eliminate an elementary school custodian from the 2011-12 budget. He's already seen a negative impact on the board's decision. "I drove by the Pine Street property

Hard times cause rifts among mariachis LOS ANGELES (NY Times) — For generations, musicians have gathered each day in a corner of the Boyle Heights neighborhood, just east of downtown. The sprawling square has been called Mariachi Plaza for as long as anyone can remember and has served as a central band-gathering spot since the 1940s. The players come with their violins and trumpets and guitars, like roaming minstrels offering to play their traditional ballads for anyone interested, and especially for those looking to hire a band. Mariachi Plaza is a sort of day-labor center for musicians, and the mariachis will gather around passers-by, a horde of them jostling to get business card into the hand of the would-be customer. The leaders encourage the customer to hire the full band, typically six musicians, and will belt out a tune or two as an enticement. The going rate here has been about $50 an hour per musician for more than a decade, but when business began to dry up and newer musicians moved in a few years ago, competition became far more intense. “This is our profession, our job, our passion,” Alejandro Cisneros said. “We don’t want to have it ruined by these people who do not know what they are doing.”

Boehner plan faces GOP resistance and veto threat
Nearly 4,000 post offices might close
––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– WORLD/NATION–––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––
WASHINGTON (NY Times) — House Republican leaders Tuesday made increasingly frenzied pleas to their members to approve a plan to temporarily raise the nation’s debt ceiling, but passage seemed in growing doubt. The White House reiterated that it strongly
opposed the bill and that President Obama’s advisers would recommend a veto should it somehow pass the House and Senate. Scores of the House’s most conservative members pored over the details presented by the Republican leaders and concluded they did not like
what they saw. In a Tuesday morning meeting, Representative Eric Cantor, the chamber’s majority leader, told fellow Republicans to “stop grumbling and whining and to come together as conservatives and rally behind” the House speaker John A. Boehner’s plan.
Lawyer: Norway gunman used drugs, thought he was ‘warrior’
OSLO (NY Times) — A lawyer representing the anti-Muslim extremist who carried out the massacre in Norway sought to fill in some of the wide gaps in public knowledge about his client on Tuesday, portraying him as a “very cold” person who lived in his own world, buttressed by drugs and the belief that he was a warrior doomed to die for a cause others did not comprehend. The lawyer, Geir Lippestad, declined to say whether his client, Anders Behring Breivik, 32, would plead insanity as a defense when his case
comes to trial. However, the lawyer said at a news conference, “this whole case has indicated that he is insane.” Police and court officials have said Mr. Breivik has admitted to detonating a large bomb in Oslo that killed eight people and then shooting and killing 68 mainly young people at a summer camp run by the governing Labor Party on the nearby island of Utoya. The attacks on Friday amounted to one of the worst massacres in postwar Europe.
WASHINGTON (NY Times) — The financially beleaguered Postal Service announced Tuesday that it would consider closing more than 3,600 of its 32,000 post offices. Continuing efforts to reduce costs by shrinking the organization’s retail network and work force, Postmaster General Patrick Donahoe released a list of the targeted offices, which are primarily in rural locations and produce little revenue. There will be a 60-day comment period before the Postal Service makes a final decision, which can be appealed to the Postal Regulatory Commission. In communities that lose post offices, the Postal Service may outsource basic services, like selling stamps and shipping flat-rate packages, to local businesses like pharmacies and groceries, Mr. Donahoe said. “The Postal Service of the future will be smaller, leaner and more competitive,” he said in a statement.

Jeff Locke to pitch at the Sea Dogs this Thursday BY LLOYD JONES THE CONWAY DAILY SUN
CONWAY — Jeff Locke's next professional start, weather permitting, will be close to home. The Redstone resident and former Kennett High standout tweeted Monday afternoon he is scheduled to start on the mound for his Altoona Curve when they visit the Portland Sea Dogs this Thursday. Altoona is the Class AA Eastern League affiliate of the Pittsburgh Pirates. Starting time for Thursday's game is 7 p.m. "I'm excited," Locke, the son of Pam and Alan Locke, of Redstone, said by phone Monday. "It's just another game, but it's a game close to home. I'm excited for the trip to Portland. I feel like there's always a lot of expectations and hype there. You can't go in with the mentality of wanting to make your peers, family and community happy, you've got to go out and treat it like any other game." Tickets are still available for the game, but are going fast. "I just ordered 40 tickets," Pam Locke said Monday. The Lockes plan to attend all four games of the Curves' visit to Portland which runs Thursday through Sunday afternoon. "The phone has already started ringing with people asking, 'When's Jeff pitching and do I have any extra tickets.' It's funny to me. I think there's a pretty good crowd planning on going down." Anywhere between 800 to 1,300 from Mount Washington Valley ventured to Hadlock Field last August when Locke was magnificent in his homecoming of sorts against the Sea Dogs. Locke was sensational for the Curve (Pittsburgh Pirates affiliate), tossing seven shutout innings while scattering three hits (all doubles), walking one and striking out eight in the 1-0 win. On the night, the Redstone Rocket was economical needing just 79 pitches, of which 55 were strikes, to get through seven innings against a talented Portland squad. "It was everything I thought it would be, for the most part," Locke said in the locker room just minutes
after his club closed out the victory. "I'm super happy. It went pretty much the way I scripted it." "I don't know what the support will be like this time," Locke, who pitched in the Class AA All Star Game in Manchester two weeks ago, said Monday. "I don't know what to expect for a crowd. People are already asking me if there will be a lot of people from Conway there. I tell them I don't know. I hope I see a lot of familiar faces; my community had always been behind me." The No. 8 prospect in the Pirates' organization and the No. 1 left-handed pitching prospect, Locke leads the Curve in most pitching categories this season. He's 6-8 with an earned run average of 4.44 and has made 19 starts, working 107 1/3 innings while allowing 104 hits, 64 runs (only 53 earned) while striking out 98 and walking a 41 batters and yielding eight home runs. Locke has a 3.60 ERA in his last 10 starts with a 3-3 record with 48 strikeouts in 55 innings with 47 hits allowed and 19 walks. Locke is coming off the longest outing of his career, pitching eight innings in a 7-2 win over the New Britain Rock Cats (Minnesota Twins affiliate) on Saturday night in Altoona. Locke faced the minimum in each of the first six innings. "Things went really, really well on Saturday," he said. "I didn't do anything flashy — I just located my fastball well and they just beat the ball into the ground. If someone got on we got out of it with a double play. "His fastball command was the best I've seen it to be honest," Curve catcher Kris Watts told The Altoona Mirror. "Sitting back there I could go in, out, up, down and do a lot of thing with one pitch. They were swinging the bats early, and (Locke) was able to put it where he wanted, and manipulate hitters pretty easily." "It was was the first time Kris has caught me this season," Locke said. "It was nice to change things up a bit. It felt like the fastest outing of my career. We were into the eighth inning before I knew it." Locke only threw 81 pitches in the contest.
Jeff Locke is scheduled to start this Thursday at the Portland Sea Dogs. (JAMIE GEMMITI PHOTO)
Usually when I go through 81 pitches it's like the fourth," Locke said. "Usually I throw 100 through five." "He had an attack mentality, located, and kept the ball at the knees for the most part," Curve manager P.J. Forbes said of Locke to The Altoona Mirror. "When you do that good things are going to happen." Locke became the first Curve pitcher
to complete eight innings since Justin Wilson did so last Aug. 14. "Knowing that my next start is going be kind of at home in Portland, it's something to ride high into my next outing and just kind of learn from the mistakes late in this game," Locke said. "Obviously, Saturday's game was a night when you can go home and reflect and look forward to your next start."

Carl B. Ridlon
Carl B. Ridlon, 78, of the Douglas Hill Road in West Baldwin, Maine died on July 20, 2011 at the Maine Medical Center in Portland, Maine after a short illness. It was a beautiful hot summer afternoon, one that would have found him tending his gardens in years past. He was born in Baldwin on Sept. 11, 1932, the only child of Wendell L. and Averill Harnden Ridlon. He attended local schools and was a 1951 graduate of Potter Academy in Sebago. He married Nadine V. Tracy on Sept. 11, 1964. Carl was a heavy equipment operator for most of his working life, having worked at White Bros. Inc. in Westbrook, Maine for almost 45 years. He worked for several years at Hamlin Sand and Gravel in Portland and was a deputy sheriff for Cumberland County for a few years as a young man. He was one of the
original members of the West Baldwin Fire Department and helped build the fire station. He was also very involved with the Ossipee Valley Fair Association. Carl and Nadine were honored for all their work one year and were Grand Marshalls of the fair’s parade. This year was the first year Carl was not involved with the fair due to his health. He was a member of the West Baldwin Grange and the Redmen in Sebago, Maine. He enjoyed making maple syrup, hunting, fishing and snowmobiling, old western movies and country music. Carl will be sadly missed by all who knew and loved him. Surviving are his wife, Nadine V. Ridlon, of West Baldwin; daughter, Carole A. Doughty, of Brunswick, Maine; son, Kevin T. Doughty, of Portland; former daughter-in-law, Carol S. Doughty, of Porter, Maine; three

This is the politics of derision, hatred To the editor: On July 1, The Conway Daily Sun quoted Ray Shakir explaining why he called the president a racial slur. Shakir cited, as justification for his remark, what he said was the transcript of a Meet the Press interview with then-candidate Obama, in which Obama supposedly said that, “we should consider reinventing the national anthem and as well as redesigning our flag to better offer our enemies hope and love.” It didn’t take much investigation to find that no such interview ever took place, or that Obama never made the statement Shakir attributes to him. The statement was from a satirical article ridiculing then-candidate Obama, which appeared in the Arizona Conservative, by a John Semmens (Oct. 27, 2007), and was not an actual statement by Obama. Mr. Shakir said he has “reams of similar stories.” I’d be interested in seeing those stories, because the similarity is most likely in their falsehoods. E-mails circulate with wild claims, and influential people (vice-chairs of local political parties) take them as truth, without ever check-
ing; and then allow these lies to influence their so-called “thinking.” Thank you to those Republicans who have refuted Ray and his ranting, and shame on you who continue to view him as a “cooperative” member of your political party. Bill Catalucci has now repeated this same lie in his letter published by the Conway Daily Sun, July 21, saying of President Obama; “...the dude who would like to change our National Anthem to ‘I’d like to teach the world to sing.’ I kid you not.” That quote was also from the same satirical article published by The Arizona Conservative, and is not an actual suggestion from President Obama. This bothers me, and it should bother anyone regardless of party. Here we have political activists, who hobnob with presidential candidates, yet they are so eager to denigrate President Obama, they will repeat any Internet lie passed to them, regardless of how outlandish. This is the politics of derision, hatred, and propaganda, and has no place in our civilized society. Ken McKenzie Eaton
To those who would risk U.S. debt default To the editor: A note to those who would risk a U.S. debt default: Honorable, responsible adults pay their bills. Period. America ran up it’s debt. America needs to pay it’s obligations. Period. Stop having a hissy fit over increasing the
national debt limit. Support an increase now and look to the 2012 election to determine the future course of federal spending and tax policy. You and your progeny don’t ever want to live in a post U.S. debt default world. Period. Art Micallef Bartlett

Article highly injurious to public perception of Alves To the editor: I am writing in response to the misleading quotations in the article in last Wednesday’s paper, titled “Recent Kennett grad accused of raping 14-year-old girl.” I would like to comment on the false accusations it reports in attempt to restore some of Beto’s reputation and public image that was so wrongfully degraded. Beto Alves is not a rapist. I would like to clarify that rape by physical force is alleged. Beto does not have a violent bone in his body, and any of his many firends will attest to that. Calling this mess aggravated felonious sexual assault is extremely difficult to believe due to Beto’s kind-hearted nature. Clearly much of — or this entire — story has been embellished if not fabricated somewhere along the line. Secondly, the fact that Lt. Chris Perley could release the statement, “He relocated rather quickly,” as he
did, without any further investigation perturbs me greatly. If further research had been conducted, or questions had been asked, it would have been found that Beto moved out of my house to live with his brother in Fall River the following day, as had been the plan for weeks. To say that, based on assumption, is to label Beto a fugitive. Beto wouldn’t have run from a crime. He’s a bigger man than that. The article published a few days ago was highly injurious to the public perception of Beto’s character, and I am here to speak to it and defend it when he can’t do so himself. As one of Beto’s best and closest friends, this entire scenario truly hurts me, and Wednesday’s article was only rubbing salt in the wound. Just because this young woman now regrets her decision does not mean that the future of a peaceful, innocent man should be ruined. Austen Bernier Albany
McCarthy just won’t stop fabricating and exaggerating To the editor: McCarthy just won’t stop fabricating. Representative McCarthy just can’t help himself when it comes to exaggeration and fabrication; and continues to try to impress us with falsehoods. In his letter to the editor on July 22 he tells of the honor I bestowed upon him by equating him with a “highly decorated Marine Corps Fighter Pilot,” the former Senator Joseph McCarthy. Senator McCarthy was never a fighter pilot; he was a tail gunner; who in order to enhance his political ambitions claimed to have flown 32 combat missions when in fact he only flew 12. He touted a letter of commendation he claimed was cosigned by Admiral Nimitz; which in fact was proven that he had written himself. And then he claimed a war wound that was actually received aboard ship during a ceremony sailors held for those who crossed the equator for the first time. To Mr. McCarthy’s credit he was right about one thing — Senator McCarthy did die in 1957. Trying to cover up his exaggeration that there was “no storage whatsoever” in the new nursing home, he is glad that I pointed out “there is ample closet space and cubby hole space for all necessary storage in the new nursing home.” (More fabrication; those are all his words — not a single one of mine.) While true that some rooms like pantries are small there is a room as large as 16 x 20 feet; and a whole bunch in between. The simple truth about storage space is this: The new nursing home has adequate storage required to support all of the day-by-day operations. In order to curtail costs the maintenance department stores items like old or donated wheel chairs, bed frames and parts, chair and lift parts etc. so that when a spare part is needed, they can salvage parts and whatever they need rather than asking the county to buy new. These items do not need to be stored in a new — heated and airconditioned facility — they just need to be available. Today they are stored in trailers and out buildings over near the jail — packed in so tight that they are not readily assessable; and time is wasted trying to find the item
required. Some trailers are packed so tight it is impossible to walk into them. If adequate space could be made available for these (my words) spare parts to be better organized the maintenance department could respond to repair needs faster. The reason Mr. Litchko could not find room for the pellet furnace and maintenance shop in the new facility is simple; he never looked; because they were never scheduled to be included in the new facility — during the design phase it was thought that dollars could be saved if they were located in a portion of the old facility. Now Mr. McCarthy may disagree and question that decision — he has the right. My concern and the reason I question his judgment and motives is his approach. Right or wrong the pellet furnace and maintenance department are not in the new facility and our options are two: modify the old facility to accommodate them or build a new facility. Rather than spend time trying to enlighten the public about how dumb these decisions may have been (in his mind) I’d like to see him get the facts — without his assumptions and without any cover my fanny words like ”perhaps” or “in my opinion” designed to inflame the public; simply tells us “to renovate the old facility will cost this much; to build an addition to the new building will cost this much;” — have some actual quotes to verify the amounts; and then make a cost effective decision. We don’t need a smoke-blowing representative in this county — we need planners, problem solvers, analysts, and decision makers. (I have watched some delegation meetings and am convinced we have some representatives with such talent). Senator Joe McCarthy was not a fighter pilot, and he fabricated lies in order to be decorated; and paid for it by leaving the Senate in disgrace. Representative McCarthy, you can change your tactics and put your energy into solving problems; or you can continue blowing smoke and follow in the Senators footsteps. If you want me to view you with respect and stop questioning your integrity — start earning it. Don Litchko Conway

the district by the Conway School Board Monday night. They are positions both are very familiar with. Jawitz, who served as principal of Pine Tree Elementary School for 23 years prior to her retirement June 30, was hired Monday as the Title I co-coordinator along with Christine Thompson. Ironically, Jawitz will fill the position vacated by her successor, Aimee Frechette, who became the Pine Tree principal on July 1. Also, for 10 years prior to accepting the principal post in Center Conway, Jawitz served as Title I coordinator for SAU 9 (Madison, Tamworth and Freedom were members of the SAU at that time before later creating SAU 13). Through Title I, the federal government disburses money to school districts based on the number of low-income families in each district as determined by census data. Each district uses its Title I money to supplement and improve regular education programs offered to help students meet state standards. Jawitz will serve in a part-time role as the co-coordinator. She will be paid a stipend of $24 per hour, four hours per week for 40 weeks during the 2011-12 school year. All of the funding for Jawitz and Thompson come through the district's Title I grant. Loynd, who served as principal at Kennett High from July 2000 to June 2009, has been hired as math teacher at the high school. Prior to becoming principal at Kennett High, Loynd was a former department head for the school's math department and later became the district's curriculum coordinator. Loynd will fill a vacancy created by the departure of James Besecker. The position was advertised, with seven people applying. Five were granted interviews and Loynd was the recommended candidate. Loynd, who originally requested early retirement in 2009, was scheduled to see his early retirement benefits run through June 30, 2014, but those will be suspended for the 2011-12 school year in order

for him to accept the appointment as a part-time (75 percent or 140.25 days) math teacher at Kennett High. The early retirement salary will be extended one year through June 30, 2015, according to school superintendent Carl Nelson. Nelson explained the high school has a rotating schedule with black and white days which changes from week to week. "He may be on the black days' schedule, and that will mean he'll cover a portion of the white days," Nelson said. The salary for the position is $31,877 with a total estimated tax burden (based on annual salary and benefits) in the range of $46,213 to $58,644. Kennett High principal Neal Moylan, who succeeded Loynd, is pleased to have him returning to classroom. "I'm thrilled," Loynd said Monday night. "I think he's really going to help raise the bar within our math department." Both Loynd and Jawitz were unanimously hired. "I'm glad Jack came forward and is willing to work with the kids in this district, I think he's a great math teacher," board member Randy Davison said. "Agreed," Moylan added.

"The John Fuller flag was down and not sure if the rope broke or if the flag as stolen." Klement said he contacted Jim Hill, director of administrative services for the district, to alert him of the problems. "Jim went up and cut the grass himself because there was no one else to do it," Klement said. "We eliminated the position of the person who has done those things in the past. "Grass may not seem like a big deal, it's only grass, but who's going to be coming in early to shovel all of the snow away from the emergency exists this winter?" Klement continued. "With the custodian gone, whose going to do that now? I think we need to revisit this. I think we're looking at the tip of an iceberg with this decision. I voted for this in a weak-kneed moment." In an effort to trim the budget, board members voted to cut $286,739 from its bottom line and that included $56,690 in elementary custodial services. Voting on the budget will be Aug. 16 at the Conway Community Building from 8 a.m. to 7 p.m. The budget will be the lone item voted on that day.

The key to saving the economy, said Johnson, is for the government to stop printing money. When there's too much money in circulation the value of each dollar decreases. Balancing the budget would allow the government to turn off the money spigot. Until recently, the Federal Reserve had been buying U.S. Treasuries, which some say is akin to money printing. "It's safe to say I would not reappoint (Fed chairman Ben) Bernanke," said Johnson. Even with his proposed 43 percent cut in spending, Johnson says he could still provide an ample safety net because government is just so bloated. As governor, Johnson says he could have eliminated a third of state government and no one would notice the difference. He didn't go that far, but he did make big cuts in New Mexico. When he took office his state had 12,000 employees; when he left there were 10,800 through managed attrition. If he could wave a magic wand, Johnson would also replace the current tax structure with one federal consumption tax at a rate of 23 percent. There would be no more income tax or businessto-business tax. Everyone would get a $200 per month, which would take everyone up to at least the poverty line. Social Security could be reformed by raising the retirement age, changing the way increases are tied to inflation, and means testing. Republicans are partly to blame for profligate spending, Johnson said. When the GOP controlled the presidency and the legislature, it passed Medicare Part D — the largest entitlement ever. President Barack Obama has continued the status quo. As a business owner and governor, Johnson says he's the candidate who has hired and fired the most people. Johnson also prides himself on vetoing 750 bills and thousands of line items as a governor. Only two were overridden. In contrast, Johnson said, Obama lacks any experience in man-
agement. He thought Obama would bring the troops home but that didn't happen, said Johnson. As for the wars, Johnson opposed going into Iraq because he didn't see a military threat from Saddam Hussein. The military has the surveillance to stop Iraq if there was going to be a problem. Likewise, Johnson opposes the military intervention in Libya. Johnson initially supported the military effort in Afghanistan but said the war shouldn't have gone beyond six months. In the War on Drugs, Johnson said he'd deschedule marijuana as a class one narcotic. Marijuana should be taxed and regulated like alcohol, said Johnson. "If I get elected president of the United States, what does that see JOHNSON page 10

say collectively about drug policy in this country?" said Johnson. "It shouts we want rational drug policy." If marijuana were legalized, it would take care of a lot of the problems with illegal immigration on the Mexican border, which he said were overblown. He thinks Arizona's anti illegal immigration policy could destroy that state's economy. In regards to energy policy, Johnson says he's a "free market guy" who opposes cap and trade. He says the U.S. should pursue offshore drilling in a responsible way. He would allow drilling in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge. In 15 years, the United States could produce over 50 percent of its energy needs. The U.S. should also pursue green technology like wind solar, and bio fuels (not counting ethanol). The better the economy, the better environmental practices are, Johnson insisted. Consumers insist on environmental cleanliness. Johnson is a mountaineer who has climbed Mount Everest. He enjoys mountain climbing because it teaches you to live in the moment. As for the supposed gap between rich and poor, Johnson says he's seen data that shows it's never been so narrow. Today, both the rich and poor have the same basic items like cars. As an example, a rich person might have a $14,000 Sub Zero refrigerator and someone else might have an $895 LG refrigerator that gets food just as cold. Conway Sun publisher Mark Guerringue asked how Johnson prepared for his appearance on Stephen Colbert's television show on Comedy Central. Johnson replied he got great advice from his children who told him not to prepare but to just flow. Backstage, Colbert told Johnson he plays a character on television but agrees with Johnson in real life. "After he did that I realized that he does that with everybody," said Johnson. Despite appearing on Colbert's program, Johnson is considerably less famous than Bill Richardson — a Democratic governor from New Mexico who
ran for president in the last primary cycle. The difference, says Johnson, is Richardson's zeal for self promotion. Johnson said as governor he had two spokespeople while Richardson had about 26 press people with assistants. "Here's someone who I would argue did nothing but just have a great band going — it was a brass band everywhere he went," said Johnson. "You couldn't help but absorb some of the noise. I wasn't about noise. I was about doing things and making a difference. I have a record, I should be the front runner." But Sun reporter Lloyd Jones wondered about effectiveness the Johnson's communications because the "events" section of the campaign web site was blank. "We have about 20 people working on this full time doing the work of 60 people," said Johnson. "We're slammed. Everyone is doing a great job." As of Monday, the "events" button on the website links to Johnson's Facebook page. Johnson was disallowed from the WMUR debates because the television channel believed he wasn't well known enough — a contention Johnson hotly debated. When asked what three historical figures he'd like to have dinner with Johnson gave a rather surprising answers: Jesus Christ, Mahatma Gandhi, and Adolph Hitler. Johnson said he'd just read a book about Hitler and it made him curious about how the mass murderer gained power. Johnson says the ideals he holds would prevent another Hitler from rising. Many people ask how his libertarian message will square with the Republican base. Johnson says has faced the same challenges in New Mexico's primary when he didn't get any of the social conservative vote. But Johnson says if he can get through the primary he could defeat the president in the general election. One poll that shows approval ratings of each of the candidates in their own states said only one had a positive rating in his or her home state. "It was me!" said Johnson."I'm held in great respect in New Mexico in a state that's two-to-one Democrat by that poll. I've got a plus 12 rating. I'm slain by the fact I wouldn't be in the debates."

Wicked Smart Horn Band combines rhythm and blues, swing and rock.
Wicked good music on Arts Jubilee stage Thursday
CONWAY — Arts Jubilee, which has been presenting outdoor concerts since 1983, continues the 2011 expanded summer season with a return performance by the Wicked Smart Horn Band Thursday, July 28, on the festival stage at the base of the north slope at Cranmore Mountain Resort in North Conway. An early concert is at 6 p.m., followed by the Wicked Smart Horn Band at 7. The Wicked Smart Horn Band plays energetic soulful music with a mix of rhythm and blues, swing, and rock. "Their diverse talent is a recipe for fun, dancing and audience participation which has endeared the band to many fans of all ages," says Arts Jubilee organizer Cindy Russell. "The genuine energy they produce making music together is the source of the magic that their audience feels. They promise they will provide as much fun as you can handle!'" “The main thing is we don’t do this to be famous. We just like to play music together and entertain the crowd," said Wicked Smart Horn Band founder and bassist Joe Cimino. Anthony Cimino, the band's drummer, said, "The band loves the North Conway area. The music scene in the mountains of North Conway is a hidden gem, so much great talent thrives there. The Wicked Smart Horn Band has played numerous shows in the area for the Arts Jubilee and Mount Cranmore, the Red Parka Pub, and we love all the people who come see us. We are all looking forward to returning to the big stage at Mount Cranmore with the new 2011 horn band lineup, with Nicky Chig on lead guitar and vocals, and Beth and Brandon Zagst blowin' those trumpets. A splendid time is guaranteed for all."
The 11-piece band features the Wicked Smart Horns, three lead vocalists, harmonies by the Hornettes, bass, drums, keyboard, and guitar. A varied group of talented players, based in Franconia, they bring an eclectic background to the group. Joe Cimino is the bass player, a songwriter and founder of the Wicked Smart Horn Band. Cimino and his son, Tony, drummer, run Mojo Music Productions, a recording studio, rental source for speakers and sound equipment and installation of sound systems. “The band is a really diverse group of guys,” said Cimino. However, he said they shared a common rhythm. “From the moment we started to play it was evident there was a groove.” By day, band members operate a bakery, grow Christmas trees, have an apple orchard, among other professions. Sax and clarinet player Roy Brewster finds himself in theater shows, choral concerts and jazz groups, as well as the Wicked Smart Horn Band.. The rock 'n' roll style of his tenor and alto sax, and clarinet, finds its way into most of the band's repertoire. During the week he practices dentistry, but once he puts on his hat and suspenders, he transforms from Dr. Brewster to Mr. Jive. “When we’re on stage it doesn’t matter where we are or who we’re playing for,” said Cimino. “It’s about the camaraderie and it’s about love.” Bring your own picnic blanket or lawn chairs.

L.A. Drew is low bidder for garage improvements BY ERIK EISELE THE CONWAY DAILY SUN
CONWAY — The bids are in for the improvements to the town service garage, and there is more than enough money to do everything the town wanted. “We got a green light,” town engineer Paul Degliangeli said. Four contractors looked at the project, but only two bid. The low bidder was L.A. Drew Inc., out of Intervale, with a total project cost of $221,469. “We were underbid for the warrant article,” Degliangeli said. Voters approved $230,000 for garage improvements last spring. There were concerns that money might not be enough to get everything the town wanted done, but the bid from L.A. Drew include redoing the windows and expanding the doors to handle larger vehicles. Degliangeli estimated work on the project would begin in early August, giving the town plenty of time to be ready by the heating season. “This would be a September finish,” he said, meaning for the entire heating season this fall the town would have vastly more efficient facilities. While officials haven’t released specific figures for how much the town expects to save by properly insulating the building, expectations are it should be a significant amount. But while the bids for the town service garage came in below budget, the bid for the storage garage was more than the town put aside. Improvements there will cost the town $126,040, according to the lowest bid, while there is $120,000 in the budget to do the work. “We’re seeing what can be done,” Degliangeli said. He’s hoping to have things worked out by the time the selectmen meet Tuesday. Work at the storage garage should happen on the same timeline as the service garage, he said.

Intelligent uses for smartphones BY LISA OAKS I love my Blackberry. And in six months when my contract is up, I’m going to really love my new iPhone. That’s because I’m a Mac person and we’re very loyal to the product. As Stephen Colbert said in a recent skit about his newest religion, “I’m Apple.” The Android folks just don’t understand that we Apple followers love the simplicity. We don’t have to think about how we want to reconfigure our phones, because we can’t. Don’t get me wrong, Androids are pretty amazing too. They’re Apple and then some. But I can’t be bothered with that. Too many decisions. My Blackberry? It’s been great but my life is different than when I first got it and now it’s time to have more fun with my phone instead of reading documents and proofs on a little screen. In my research to see what the best phone for me would Lisa Oaks be, it’s clear they’re all good. You just need to know what you want. In a nutshell, Blackberry has brawn, iPhone is fun, and Android has it all. My husband watched four videos on YouTube doing side by side comparisons and they all came out pretty close. The Blackberry Torch worked best for him but you can’t get that in our area so it was a moot point. In January when our contract is up, he’ll get the black iPhone, I’ll take the white. And just what do we need all this high-tech/ high-expense gadgetry for? Initially it was to check e-mail, listen to music, browse the Web, check the calendar and get directions on the go. But the phones got smarter. Here are just some of the ways to get the most out of your smartphone: The latest craze (besides the Angry Birds game) is the QR Code. To see an example of this go to the front page of The Conway Daily Sun to the upper right corner. What is that thing for, you ask? It’s a Quick Response Code that you scan with your smartphone and are then able to link to digital content on the web, activate a number of phone functions including email, instant messaging and SMS texting, and connect your mobile device to a web browser. All that from a blurry bar code. While it’s relatively new in the states, not to mention North Conway, QR Codes have been popular in Japan where they were created over a decade ago. To get a QR Code as a business go to a QR Code Generator site, of which there are several and they’re free. http://qrcode.kaywa.com/ is one popular site. Then you need a QR Code reader. I have BeeTagg on my Blackberry but there are others. The possibilities for using a QR Code are endless. Here are a few ideas from Jeff Korhan of the Social Media Examiner: QR Codes could be used on: * The back (or front and back) of your business card. * Your brochures and other marketing materials. * The sides of trucks and trailers. * Product tags and packaging. * Convention and event name tags. see SOCIAL MEDIA page 15
Lyceum breathes new life into Tamworth Village BY DAYMOND STEER THE CONWAY DAILY SUN
Lyceum means gathering place, and that’s exactly what owner Steve Grasse wants it to be. (DAYMOND STEER PHOTOS)
TAMWORTH — The town's new Lyceum is just part of Steven Grasse's plan to bring new life to Tamworth Village. The Lyceum, located at 85 Main Street in Tamworth, opened on July 4. The, 1,300-square-foot Lyceum will be a place for residents can listen to lectures, hold private events, or simply grab an iced coffee and something to eat. People can sit inside or outside since there are decks in the front and the back of the building. The liquor license allows the Lyceum to sell beer and wine in a grocery store-like capacity. The Lyceum held its first event, a wine tasting, on July 20. The Lyceum is open from 7:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. daily. It will stay open later on nights when there's a show at the Barnstormers Theatre. So far, the Lyceum has been well received. The busiest time at the Lyceum is Saturdays when the farmers' market is taking place. With its rustic charm, it's hard to believe the Lyceum hasn't been there a long time. The building itself is well over 100 years old. "We had 20 to 25 people, which was see LYCEUM page 14
Blackburn new membership and events coordinator for observatory BY TOM EASTMAN THE CONWAY DAILY SUN
CONWAY — Abby Blackburn has been hired as the new membership and events coordinator for the non-profit, member-supported Mount Washington Observatory, replacing former coordinator Karen Hemeon. Hemeon is leaving her post after nearly five years of service to move to the Boston area to be closer to her family, according to executive director Scot Henley. In a recent e-mail to members, Henley praised
Hemeon for her half-decade of service to the 1932-founded organization. “During her time with the observatory,” said Henley, “Karen has established a friendly and personal rapport with our members. She has nurtured 'Seek the Peak' [the annual July climb by supporters to the summit of 6,288-foot Mount Washington] into a blockbuster fund-raising event, breaking records each year under her guidance. She has positioned 'Seek the Peak 2011' for another year of success. We wish Karen the very best in the future.” see OBSERVATORY page 14
Page 14 — THE CONWAY DAILY SUN, Wednesday, July 27, 2011
OBSERVATORY from page 13
Blackburn comes to the observatory with a background in event management at a “major New England ski resort, where she quarterbacked a busy calendar of high profile events and competitions,” according to Henley. “Most recently, she served as the coordinator of a non-profit ski-a-thon that makes Seek the Peak look tiny,” said Henley. “There is no doubt in my mind that Abby will take Seek the Peak and other observatory events to unprecedented heights.” The Mount Washington Observatory is a private, non-profit scientific and educational institution. Its
mission is to advance understanding of the natural systems that create the Earth's weather and climate, by maintaining its mountaintop weather station, conducting research and educational programs and interpreting the heritage of the Mount Washington region. In addition to its summit observatory, the organization operates the Weather Discovery Center on Main Street in North Conway Village. Since 2001, hikers have raised nearly $700,000 for the institution. This year's Seek the Peak is set for July 22 and 23. For more information, call the observatory at 3562137 or visit www.mountwashington.org.

pretty awesome considering we did nothing to promote it," said Grasse of the wine tasting. "Hopefully it will be the first of many events. We'll be doing quite a few." For instance, at some point the Lyceum may show a Civil War exhibit, which is on display at Grasse's Philadelphia's store called Art in the Age of Mechanical Reproduction. The exhibit, called "Heads of State," explores the war's 150th anniversary. People can keep an eye on the Lyceum's offerings see next page

through Facebook, Twitter and its Website, Tamworthlyceum.com. Grasse is happy to take suggestions through those mediums. There are also plans for an old-fashioned newsletter. The Lyceum will be open year around; however, the Grasses go back to Philadelphia in September and return in June. Lyceum, which means gathering place, is a New England tradition. The philosophy behind the Tamworth Lyceum is based on transcendentalists like Henry David Thoreau, who is known to have visited Tamworth. Transcendentalists believed industrialism would destroy the country and they wanted to connect back to nature. There's a small library where one can read the works of other transcendentalists like Ralph Waldo Emerson. Grasse would love to hold a presidential debate or political discussion events at the Lyceum. Grasse would especially like a visit from his favorite candidate, Republican congressman Ron Paul of Texas. "I'm a hardcore libertarian," said Grasse. "Live free or die." Grasse said he and his wife, Sonia, create stores based on what they like and assume there are are other people who have similar tastes. The Lyceum offers many locally made products like bottled milk from Sherman Farm in Conway, natural beef from White Gates Farm in Tamworth, and ice cream from the Sandwich Creamery. Soon, the Lyceum will offer gourmet salads, sandwiches, and espresso. Currently, it sells pastries and a range of snacks like Two Moms in the Raw 100 percent organic snacks. The coffee comes from Philadelphia-based La Columbe Torrefaction, which is owned by Grasse's personal friends. "They are really one of the world's finest coffee roasters," said Grasse of La Columbe. "They supply coffee to all the snazzy boutique hotels and restaurants in New York." There's also a range of gourmet snacks and cooking ingredients. One won't find Doritos or other snacks found in most stores. The Lyceum also sells artisan crafts, toys and unique toiletry items like wooden tooth brushes. The opening of the Lyceum has created several full- and part-time jobs. There was extensive renovation work on the building. "What I heard when we opened was 'thank you for doing this'" said Grasse. "It's a nice way to breathe vitality back into the town." There is some concern in town about Grasse's other project, which is to restore the defunct Tamworth Inn building by turning it into a farm-to-table restaurant and spirits distillery. But Grasse stresses he loves Tamworth's old New England character. Grasse's mother's family comes from New Hampshire and he would spend his childhood summers in Meredith. Tamworth represents what he likes about New Hampshire. The town's charm includes the Remick Farm Museum, Barnstormers Theatre, and a nucleus of an old-fashioned downtown. "I'd love to restore the inn. If you know anyone with $6 million and a business plan to let people come stay there let me know," said Grasse. "Otherwise, I think the plan I have is a good one." The distillery will make ciders and wines out of local botanicals grown on Grasse's own site, the Tamworth Garden. Grasse says if people are terrified that he'll turn the Tamworth Inn into something out of character with the rest of the town, then they ought to visit the the Lyceum. All the work at the former inn building will be done in stages, which could take five to 10 years to complete because Grasse doesn't borrow money. When the distillery is up and running Lyceum would be allowed to serve its spirits. "It will look like it was always here," said Grasse of the restaurant and distillery. "The idea is to be seamless. I want people to confuse it with the farm museum. Tamworth is a great secret. I don't want it to change. One of the reasons I bought the inn site is so that I could make sure it doesn't change." In the future, Grasse hopes Tamworth will become an agricultural tourism destination like what Jack Daniels has done for Lynchburg, Tennessee. The
“I’d love to restore the inn. If you know anyone with $6 million and a business plan to let people come stay there let me know. Otherwise, I think the plan I have is a good one.” concept of having a distillery is reminiscent of what was happening in the 1700s and 1800s when farmers would turn their produce into spirits so they could get more money. People will be attracted to quality and craftsmanship of the local products that he will offer. A new luxury is knowing where your stuff comes from and knowing the artisans received fair pay. Grasse believes New Yorkers would even come to local farms to harvest vegetables. "It's going to take awhile, I have a very patient long view of things, almost as slow as maple syrup in February," said Grasse. "Tamworth will become a destination for agricultural tourism. The idea is to use all local ingredients from our farm and neighboring farms. Soon, Grasse will restore the Tamworth Garden, an old barn where boxing matches used to occur in the town's past. In the future, the building, located next to the inn, could host live music and festivals. But Grasse says he wouldn't rule out having boxing matches there too. The Tamworth Inn renovation isn't the only controversial project in town. Another entity, called Club Motorsports, is building an automotive-themed county club in town. "It's terrible" said Grasse. "I'm not for it in any way. It's destructive to the environment." For more information visit tamworthlyceum.com.

And you don’t have to have the address. But you do need connections in your group to make it work. Tethering is my favorite new discovery. This has been around for a while but I’ve been too cheap to pay the $50 to activate it. Last week I was away without Internet and finally signed up. It was a breeze. I was online with a pretty good signal and able to get my work done, without using all my data service minutes. Go to www.tether.com to sign up.

And the reason for that is because I have children. There is nothing better to quiet them down when traveling or at the doctor’s office than handing them my phone. Is it the gateway to video games?

I've caught many fish. Fishing is a passion for me!” As he spoke, fishing, canoe and kayak enthusiasts were streaming into the well-stocked shop on the sunny summer day, and Pelletier and his staff were eager to help furnish them with whatever they needed to enjoy the great outdoors. “I enjoy helping people who want to learn how to fish and telling them where to go,” said Pelletier. His fishing shop is not a fly-fishing shop — instead, it focuses on “catching the fish here in the Whites.” “Brook trout, rainbow trout, browns, and bass and pickerel in the lakes — that's the fish we focus on. We don't do fly fishing, but we do all other fishing,” he said, noting he brought in a supply of tackles, rods, reels, hooks, lures and sinkers to catch the local species. His shop also sells bait. “We have a very large and variable supply of bait — night crawlers, billies (that's a cross between a worm and a night crawler), trout worms, mealworms and
live shiners,” said Pelletier. The shop also rents fishing poles and fishing kayaks, in addition to its regular rental fleet of canoes and kayaks. For those interested in heading out to the Saco, Andes provides a shuttle service to get customers to the river as part of its offerings. Pelletier jokes that he is “bi-coastal:” “I travel between here and Alaska. The fish I catch there are incredible — I catch 35-inch cod from the shore there, and the Homer, the river I go to, is the size of the Saco, and I catch 35-pound king salmon. You cook it up on the grille, and it's delicious.” When he's not fishing at either locale, Pelletier is a heavy equipment operator. He bought the building which houses Andes in 1996. For a time it served as home to another local outdoors retailer. When that retailer vacated the premises two years ago, Pelletier returned and opened Andes. In addition to outdoor summer gear, the shop in winter rents and sells ski and snowboard equipment. As its website, andessports.com, notes, “Andes is the Mount Washington Valley's premier ski and snowboard rental demo center.” The shop features Salomon and Fischer skis and Atomic snowboards, all tuned by the shop's expert technicians. Skiing, snowboarding and skating in winter; kayaking, canoeing in fishing in summer. Not a bad combination — with a little Alaska here and there thrown in for good measure. That's the “lure” for Pelletier and his staff — and the shop has been “reeling” in customers, both for the fishing side of the operation, and for the canoes and kayaks. For more information, call 374-6864.

Citizens Bank encourages donations during final week of Gear for Grades program MANCHESTER — Citizens Bank is encouraging donations of new school supplies during the final week of its Gear for Grades program, which ends Aug. 6. The program, under way since July 18, will provide donated new school supplies to New Hampshire children to take back to school with them. The program is supported by Child and Family Services of NH, 95.7 WZID, and the New Hampshire Union Leader. Donated items are being accepted at all Citizens Bank branches throughout the state. According to Joe Carelli, president of Citizens Bank, there is still time to participate and the need is great as the bank collects supplies to fill 3,000 backpacks. “When shopping for your own children or grandchildren, I encourage everyone to support this terrific program and consider picking up an extra notebook or pack of pencils or crayons,” said Carelli. “Gear for Grades will go a long way toward getting the school year off to a great start for children in need in our community.” Citizens Bank is donating 3,000 backpacks to the program. The backpacks will be filled with the donated school supplies and distributed to youth programs across the state through after-school programs beginning August 15. Child and Family Services, Citizens Bank’s Gear for Grades partner, has identified youth programs in the state to receive the filled backpacks and will distribute the backpacks to children throughout New Hampshire who need these supplies the most. Over the last five years, this program has been a great success with 15,000 children in New Hampshire receiving backpacks filled with new notebooks, pencils, pens and more. This year, more than 27,000 backpacks filled with new school supplies will be distributed to children across the Citizens Financial Group footprint. Citizens Bank is a division of RBS Citizens, N.A., operating its seven-state branch network in Connecticut, Delaware, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New York, Rhode Island and Vermont. It has 82 branches and 203 ATMs in New Hampshire.
Navy fitness trainer joins 121Fit CONWAY — Robin Gregg, a Navy-certified fitness trainer and command fitness leader, has joined the team at 121Fit in North Conway. Gregg is an eightyear military veteran. Having spent five years on a naval destroyer, she realized that staying “fit” was important for her to perform her job in a high-stress environment. But her passion for health and fitness came from being a Navy fitness trainer at the Recruit Training Command in Great Lakes, Ill. During her three-year tour, she conducted physical fitness instruction, testing and evaluation for 135,200 recruits and 4,200 staff members. Her expertise in fit-
healthy life is by keeping the mind and body in shape. By challenging the mind and body through physical fitness, you will only make a "stronger you," she says. As a fitness trainer, her goal is to help people achieve their level of fitness. And for those wanting to join the military, she’ll be offering training programs for those who want to get in shape prior to going to basic training. She is also offering a new class called “Sculpt X," which incorporates P90X exercises that focus on all the muscle groups into a one-hour class, and her class is geared for all levels of fitness. Phone number for 121Fit is 356-9350.

Sage seeks donations for study abroad program
Journey to Africa
The Jackson Public Library will presents “Journey to Africa,” a program most appropriate for teens and adults, at the library at 5:30 p.m. today. “Journey to Africa” is a film collaboration of Mr. Moore’s 8th grade English class of 2009 with a 10th grade class in Monapo, Mozambique. Nia Chauvin is a Kennett High School graduate who had a Peace Corp assignment in Mozambique, Africa where she taught this 10th grade class. A pen pal relationship was established between the students on these separate continents provoking thought to how the other side lives. Nia’s mother, Christie Girouard, traveled to Mozambique and was given privilege into a day in the lives of the African 10th graders which she filmed. The film gives a generous insight to what children in Monapo go through just to receive an education, live disease-free, and to some day prosper. Christie Girouard will present the film and talk about her experiences in Africa.
CONWAY — Bjorn C. Sage, a graduate of Kennett High School and soon to be a graduate of University of New Hampshire, has been accepted into the Eco Quest program. This trip enables Sage to graduate college, where he hopes to finish his bachelor’s degree in environmental conservation. Eco Quest allows him to finish his education on the North Island of New Zealand. Sage expects this to be a once in a lifetime opportunity to study the uniquely varied habitats of that region. The flora is so dense that some places there have never been visited by man. THis trip will cut the final costs of Sage’s education, as it consolidates two semesters into one. Sage has maintained a high grade point average, both at Kennett and at UNH and has show exemplary work study habits for the duration. Sage is asking for donations to help cover the cost of the Eco Quest trip, which will cost a total of $8,000 over regular college expenses. All donations over $50 will allow donors to qualify to have their name entered in a drawing. The winner will receive a portrait of a person of their choosing, painted by local artist Elizabeth Irwin. The winning name will be drawn Sept. 1. If you wish to be entered in the draw-

Summer theater camp presents original production The Dave Mason – Greater Kezar Lake Tennis Tournament will take place on Friday, Saturday and Sunday, Aug. 5, 6, and 7. This year’s competition will feature Men’s Singles, Men’s and Women’s Doubles, Mixed Doubles and Junior Singles (under 16). This event is so popular that all the slots were filled quickly. This tournament is opened to only residents and guests of Lovell, Stow, Sweden and Stoneham, Maine or those who have competed previously. You can always tell when the tournament is on because of the traffic in the village. If it rains the matches will be rescheduled if possible. Tournament chairs Elliot Lilien and Gary Heroux and junior chair Maureen Duggan are proud that this event has become very popular with many in attendance. So bring your chair and prepare to sit back and enjoy some great competition. Once again the tennis tournament is being sponsored by the Stow Corner Store. Last year Maureen Reilly, from Cape Cod, bought the store. Even through she had just opened for business, she jumped at the chance to benefit the tournament. This year having just celebrated the first anniversary of the store, Maureen didn’t hesitate to becoming the sponsor again. When the store first opened the new owner concentrated on getting the store in condition for the public. Many items like advertising were forgotten until the winter season of snow mobiles. To lure in the sleders, the menu was tweaked with stews, chowders and soups that were hot and warming. As business picked up Maureen enlisted the help of friend Jim to do some of the cooking. Together Maureen and partner Jim uses excellent food like roasted turkey and roast beef to gain a favorable reputation. Fussy about the ingredients they use, they made sure the pizza crust they bought was only the best, including four different herbal and glutton free crusts. In the summer they have a grower who produces all their vegetables fresh from the garden. Of course these two chefs, who love to cook, haven’t forgotten the sweet tooth. All the pastries are made to attract and once eaten savor. Yes, they do sell ice cream each size scoop named for one of the surrounding mountains.
All these huge improvements have all the new visitors saying when they’re leaving “we’ll be back.” The Charlotte Hobbs Memorial Library and the Lovell Recreation Department has a unique raffle as a fundraiser. The item to be raffled is a rare 1977 fully chromed Schwinn Le Tour 12.2. If you haven’t seen this bike its worth going to the library and looking at the workmanship Hobbs Library board member and treasurer John McCann has put into refurbishing the relic. The tickets are $5 each or five for $20 and will be drawn at the conclusion of the Tour de Lovell on Aug. 13. The bike can now be seen at the entrance stairway of the library. On July 29 and 30 the children of the summer theater camp will present an original production which the young people have created themselves. The campers have worked through the hot weather to put together this work from the writing down to the sets. Under direction of Rodger Clemmons, of the Picket Fence Theater Company, the students have had a sense of what working in theater is all about. The program begins at 7 pm and is free but donation will be accepted. The Greater Lovell Land Trust talk on Aug. 3 will have education director Bridie McGreavy explaining “Nature’s Numbers.” Nature deals in numbers, leaves on a tree, the amount of soil needed for a specific plant and how nature continues. The time is 7:30 p.m. at the Charlotte Hobbs Memorial Library. The Greater Lovell Land Trust Aug 4 walk will take place at the Kezar River Reserve at 10 am. Learn how past glaciers and natural erosion designs the landscape. This is a moderate walk of two hours. Again it is suggested that you bring water and bug spray. On Saturday, Aug. 6, the Kezar Lake Watershed Assocation is holding the second “Eyes on the Water” at the Narrow’s boat landing. The Watershed needs volunteers to help scour the lake for possible invasive plants. It’s suggested those who have boats bring them, canoes or kayaks work well too.

Hazel was born Sept. 30, 1928 in Sandwich. She graduated from Quimby School in Sandwich and attended New Hampshire Business College in Laconia. Hazel had lived most of her life in Laconia and worked for a short time as a nurse’s aide at the St. Francis Home in Laconia. She will always be remembered for her thoughtful and caring ways through her beautiful afghans, family recipes, houseplants and gardens. She had a listening ear for everyone and a touch of wisdom that taught us all a little patience. She truly will be missed by all who were blessed to know her. Survivors include her three children, Katherine Clough and her husband, Ken, of Winnisquam, Margaret Goldman and her husband, John, of Ocean Springs, Miss., and John Johnson of Laconia; nine grandchildren, Richard Guidi of Laconia, Thomas Guidi, of New Hampton,
Robert Guidi of Meredith, Angela Marsh of Meredith, Timothy Guidi, of Gilford, Jason Cushing, of Boca Raton, Fla., Mandi Clough, of Gilford, and Brittany Johnson and Destiny Rogers, both of Laconia; 16 great-grandchildren; three greatgreat-grandchildren; sister-in-law, Rita Taylor, of Laconia and two nieces, Elva Mullen, of Moultonboro, and Ann Fortin, of Sandwich. Hazel was predeceased by her husband, Albert Johnson, her brothers, Edison Taylor and Harold Taylor, and by her sister, Evelyn Mudgett. A private burial will be in the family lot in Garland Cemetery in Bartlett. For those who wish; memorial donations may be made to the Concord Regional Visiting Nurse Association (CRVNA) Hospice House, 30 Pillsbury Street, Concord, NH, 03301.

Earl R. Steward Earl R. Steward, 70, of Missoula, Mont., died July 17, 2011 at the Harborview Medical Center in Seattle, Wash. Born in North Conway, the son of Harrison and Mabel (Kimball) Steward, he grew up in North Conway and had lived in the Northern New England area prior to moving to Missoula in 2008. He graduated from Kennett High School, Class of 1959 and attended N.H. Technical Institute in Manchester. Mr. Steward had been a manager in several retail stores in the New England area for over 40 years and he and his wife owned and operated Reader’s World from 1976 to 1982 in North Conway. Earl enjoyed model railroading, muscle cars and electronics. He was also an avid skier and had been on the ski patrol at Black Mountain in Jackson many years ago. The family includes his wife, Brenda (Haskell) Steward, of Missoula; three sons, Kevin E. Steward, of New City, N.Y., Michael R. Steward and his wife, Robin, of LOVELL from page 22
The restaurant at Pleasant Point Inn with its beautiful view is a dining experience to die for. The dinner menu covers the main spectrum of meat, chicken or fish. The salad was delightful, not just greens jumbled in a bowl with other veggies. The main course was fantastic, proportions just right, served with potatoes and combined vegetables. Having to watch the girlish figure didn’t have desert but wanted to. I’m waiting for my son to visit so he can take me out for dinner.

“CUBA” After 50 Years
Travel For All Americans –
LEGAL!
The travel industry is all abuzz with news regarding future visits to CUBA. According to “General Tours World Traveler”: the official announcement, allowing any American to travel to Cuba legally, is expected during the first two weeks of August, 2011. General Tours and “Insight Cuba” – leaders in authorized travel to Cuba, are longtime travel partners providing CrossCultural Solutions and cultural exchanges. Together they are positioned to provide the up-coming People-to-People Journeys. The Valley Travel team, anticipating this announcement, is standing in the wings with several tours already in place. So when the flood gates open- up Valley Travel will be one of the first companies to make this historic journey. One of our tours will feature a visit to Havana’s historic Hotel Nacional de Cuba. This refined city center hotel has been the capital’s premier address for nearly 80 years. With it’s classic Art Deco styling and world-class service, the Hotel Nacional boasts an impressive guest list including Winston Churchill, Frank Sinatra, Ava Gardner and Ernest Hemmingway. Hotel Nacional de Cuba Did you know that Ernest Hemmingway’s book “The Old Man and the Sea” was written about a Cuban fisherman? Hemmingway penned this and many of his best known novels at his Cuban Villa Finca Vigia, located about one half hour from Havana. He lived there from 1939 – 1960. The count down to this monumental decision will formally begin in a few days. The fascinating history of this alluring island coupled with the announcement of “legal” travel for Americans to CUBA is reminiscent of the stuff that legends are made of. Stay tuned and be the first to make the inaugural journey to the land of music, salsa dancers, cigars, rum, and movie stars...

DILBERT
by Scott Adams
By Holiday Mathis SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). There are those who believe that crying is a form of weakness and is to be avoided at all costs. They are forgetting that there is a healing balm inside every tear. Tolerate the tears of others, and of course, accept your own. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Be on the lookout for new treasures. There is an item very near you that would fit in perfectly with a collection or special interest of yours. Ask specific questions, and you’ll find your way to it. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You didn’t sign up to be a role model, but that is what you have become. So embrace your position, and show everyone the way. It is one of your many purposes on the planet. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You feel wronged by someone. This person meant you no harm, but his or her selfishness has caused you extra work. Consider that on some level you may have agreed to this inconvenience. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). A ritual can help you release what is old and let in new light. This doesn’t have to be a practice laid out for you by religion or tradition. You are free to create your own steps for releasing the past. TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (July 27). Your easygoing way will attract good fortune to your personal life in August. Just don’t brag, or loved ones will get jealous. You’ll negotiate and strike a pretty deal in September. The improvements to your routine have you looking fantastic in November. Expect family additions in January. Invest in May. Taurus and Capricorn people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 20, 1, 6, 36 and 39.
Get Fuzzy
ARIES (March 21-April 19). Do not try to parent other people’s children, even if you’re paid to oversee them. Knowing the boundaries will save you from trouble. The principle will also apply today to adults who act like children. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You will witness inspiring examples of sharing and caring. Indeed, you may be the instigator of these acts, as you will be moved to express the deep affection you feel for loved ones. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You will praise good behavior in others. You’ll do this subtly, so as not to come across as overbearing. You are practiced in the art of leading from behind. CANCER (June 22-July 22). You have poise, presence and a clear voice. You will ask for what you want, and you will get it. You have no need of qualifiers, such as, “I hate to bother you, but...” You have the confidence of a leader. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Someone is not who he says he is. The situation is a little like Dorothy and her friends visiting the Wizard of Oz. The one in power has to posture and pretend because that is what he thinks the citizens expect. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Your apprehensions will keep you from taking a risk that’s not worth taking. However, when you see an opportunity that is right for you but scary because it’s new, you will courageously seize the moment. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You believe it’s rude to ramble on to a captive audience. And yet, you will listen patiently to the one who has trouble getting to the point. That’s how kind you are.

THE CONWAY DAILY SUN, Wednesday, July 27, 2011— Page 25
Today is Wednesday, July 27, the 208th day of 2011. There are 157 days left in the year. Today’s Highlight in History: On July 27, 1861, Union Maj. Gen. George B. McClellan took command of the Army of the Potomac during the Civil War. On this date: In 1789, President George Washington signed a measure establishing the Department of Foreign Affairs, forerunner of the Department of State. In 1866, Cyrus W. Field finished laying out the first successful underwater telegraph cable between North America and Europe (a previous cable in 1858 burned out after only a few weeks’ use). In 1909, during the first official test of the U.S. Army’s first airplane, Orville Wright flew himself and a passenger, Lt. Frank Lahm, above Fort Myer, Va., for one hour and 12 minutes. In 1921, Canadian researcher Frederick Banting and his assistant, Charles Best, succeeded in isolating the hormone insulin at the University of Toronto. In 1940, Bugs Bunny made his “official” debut in the Warner Bros. animated cartoon “A Wild Hare.” In 1960, Vice President Richard M. Nixon was nominated for president on the first ballot at the Republican national convention in Chicago. In 1974, the House Judiciary Committee voted 27-11 to adopt the first of three articles of impeachment against President Richard Nixon, charging he had personally engaged in a course of conduct designed to obstruct justice in the Watergate case. In 1981, 6-year-old Adam Walsh was abducted from a department store in Hollywood, Fla., and was later murdered. His father, John Walsh, became a well-known crime victims’ advocate. One year ago: BP announced that its much-criticized chief executive, Tony Hayward, would be replaced by Robert Dudley as the company reported a record quarterly loss and set aside $32.2 billion to cover the costs of the massive Gulf of Mexico oil spill. Canadian character actor Maury Chaykin died in Toronto on his 61st birthday. Today’s Birthdays: TV producer Norman Lear is 89. Actor Jerry Van Dyke is 80. Actor John Pleshette is 69. Singer Bobbie Gentry is 67. Actress-director Betty Thomas is 63. Olympic gold medal figure skater Peggy Fleming is 63. Singer Maureen McGovern is 62. Actress Janet Eilber is 60. Actress Roxanne Hart is 57. Comedian Bill Engvall is 54. Country singer Stacy Dean Campbell is 44. Rock singer Juliana Hatfield is 44. Actor Julian McMahon is 43. Singer-songwriter Pete Yorn is 37. MLB player Alex Rodriguez is 36. Actor Seamus Dever is 35. Actor Jonathan Rhys (rees) Meyers is 34. Singer Cheyenne Kimball is 21.

by Abigail Van Buren
NEIGHBORHOOD SHREW SHOULD BE OBJECT OF PITY, NOT SCORN
DEAR ABBY: There’s a venomous old woman who roams through our neighborhood looking for victims to embarrass, humiliate or annoy. She told a neighbor’s 11-year-old granddaughter she looked like a slut because she was wearing shorts currently in fashion for the young. She habitually cuts in front of people in line at the supermarket, puts 25 items on the 15-item service line, etc. A new neighbor thought she should be treated with a little kindness. She had her opportunity recently when we were out to breakfast at a restaurant. The harridan sat alone (her husband refuses to be seen in public with her), and my friend commented to her on the beautiful day. Her response? “Don’t waste my time with meaningless inanities!” She then proceeded to abuse the server by repeatedly sending her plate back, each time becoming more unpleasant. The girl ended up in tears. At that point, my friend walked over and said quietly, “I hope you don’t think your advanced age justifies your meanness.” The witch accused my friend of “slandering” her and left vowing never to return. This elicited a round of applause from the customers and staff. Why do some people go through life behaving so outrageously? How can she derive satisfaction from being so hateful? -- PUZZLED IN SAN DIEGO DEAR PUZZLED: Ruling out the idea that the person you have described may be mentally disturbed, it’s possible she may be so unhappy in her personal life that she’s trying to make herself feel better by abusing others. She’s a sad case. I’d like to think that when the other diners applauded, it was directed in support of your friend rather than at the disagreeable woman as she left the restaurant. DEAR ABBY: I am a 34-year-old man, I have been divorced
for a couple of years and have no children. I have been dating an incredible woman, “Nikki,” who is a bit older than I am. She has three children. The elephant in the room has always been whether or not Nikki would want more children. We finally discussed it, and she confirmed that she does not. She said she’s looking forward to the next phase of her life as her kids get older, which I understand. That conversation has led to a break in our relationship. We haven’t spoken for the past two weeks, and it seems like two years. I am struggling with what to do. I have always wanted to be a dad. Would being a stepdad be as fulfilling for me? Is being in a good relationship more important? Having kids doesn’t automatically make things great, right? Could I find someone as wonderful as Nikki, but who wants to have a kid? Abby, I’m conflicted, and you’re the only one I could think of for advice. -- JUMBLED IN NEW HAMPSHIRE DEAR JUMBLED: Only you can decide whether being a stepfather to Nikki’s children would be enough for you. For some men, it would be. For others, it wouldn’t be enough. Of course, the primary relationship must be between the husband and wife. Children grow up, leave and establish lives of their own. And you’re right, having kids doesn’t “automatically” make things great if there is trouble in the relationship. While there are no guarantees you will find someone as wonderful as Nikki, the odds are very good that you will meet a woman -- or more than one -- whose goals are similar to yours and who would love to have a family with you. But it won’t happen until you firmly decide exactly what you want.

Library Connection
Author Andy Cutts at library July 30 On Saturday, July 30, at 10:30 a.m., the Conway Public Library hosts Andy Cutts, author of “The Penny.” This recently published picture book features illustrations by Vermont cartoon artist Katherine Roy, who has a magical ability to turn paper into water. It’s about a wooden sailboat called The Penny, the grandfather who built her, and the grandson (the author’s father) who learns lessons from both. As the third generation of the Cutts family to summer on Lake Winnipesaukee, Andy learned to sail there. Based on true events, “The Penny” evolved from a bedtime story for his young daughter to a beautiful 40-page hardcover book. On the surface, it’s a timeless story of sailing adventure with risks and rescues that has young readers reaching for their life jackets. Going deeper, the themes of loss and renewal, of resilience after catastrophe, offer an inspiring lesson. For details about the project, visit Read The Penny on Facebook. Copies will be available for purchase and signing at the program. ‘Reptiles on the Move’ program Aug. 3 Reptiles are coming to Conway Public Library on Wednesday, Aug. 3, at 4 p.m. The program is presented by Marie Leighton of “Reptiles on the Move.” Children will see live reptiles and learn intriguing facts about them from specific characteristics to their natural habits, habitats, and methods of survival. The program is recommended for children age four and older and is free and open to the public thanks to grants from the Byrne Foundation, CHILIS, the Cogswell Benevolent Trust, the New Hampshire Library Association, and the New Hampshire State Library. Refreshments will be served and there is a drawing for prizes. This is part of a series of special guest programs that runs through Wednesday, August 17 in conjunction with our Summer Reading Program. For information about programs, visit www.conwaypubliclibrary.org or call 447-5552. Deadline for Reading Time The deadline for participants in the “One World Many Stories” or “You Are Here” summer reading programs to record reading time is Monday, Aug. 15.

Tara Watt, fourth in New England’s, eyes state amateur tourney this week –––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– SPORTS ––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––
BY LLOYD JONES THE CONWAY DAILY SUN
With the New Hampshire Women’s Golf Association 2011 State Amateur Championship teeing off this week, North Conway’s Tara Watt should be a golfer to keep an eye on. The Kennett High Sports Hall of Fame member is playing some of the best golf of her career right now. Watt finished fourth in the New England Women’s Golf Association (NEWGA) Championship at Shuttle Meadow Country Club in Kensington, Conn., last week. Pam Kuong, from Wellesley, Mass., captured the title with an impressive three-day score of 221, shooting 2 under par for the final day on the 5,685yard par 74 course at Shuttle Meadow Country Club that drew competitors from six states. Mary Chamberlain of South Dennis, Mass., won the Robert Holmes Jones Bowl as Runner-Up Champion. She scored a 4 under par 70 on her first day of play finishing with a total of 222. Ali Prazak, of Tiverton, R.I. was third, 223. Watt, playing out of the Derryfield Country Club, won the Cris Eaton Memorial Trophy Ringer competition with an awesome 64 best shot total for 18 holes during the tournament. They take your best score for each hole overpar the three days and then add up to a cumulative round which Watt was 10 under for the tournament. Watt finished fourth overall in a field of 82 golfers, shooting 227 (81-74-72) and moved from eighth to fourth on the final day of play Wednesday. Watt, who started her career playing at Kenntt High, tore up the course the final two days of the three day tournament was pleased with her play. Watt tied Kuong for the round of the day Wednesday with both women shooting 72. She was a stroke behind Kuong for the best second round score. “I was hoping for the top 10, but was thrilled with fourth,” Watt said by phone Friday. “I’m pleased with my finish, especially after the way I started. On the first four holes on day one I played five over par golf. Then, the next 12 holes I was two over. I just had trouble getting up and down.”
Watt found herself tied for 22nd after the opening round July 18, but then things started to click for the former Gardner Webb University standout. She came within inches of scoring a rare golfing albatross (a double eagle) on day two. “The 15th was a 223 yard par four,” Watt said. “I was able to reach the green in one and came within two inches of a hole-in-on. (Laughing) It’s always nice when you can tap in for eagle.” Watt, who works as a service operations agent for Johnson Control, Inc., in Manchester, entered the final round of play in a tie for eighth. “Wednesday I was on fire,” Watt said, smiling. “I’m a pretty decent golfer, but I’ve never really been able to put it all together or keep it together. It was so awesome the way I played they back nine Wednesday. I was two over on the front nine. I bogeyed the 12th and then had an incredible stretch. The last six holes I went birdie, birdie par, par, eagle and birdie. “This course had six par fives on it,” she continued. “I’m a long hitter so I was able to get on four of them in two, which helped a lot.” Watt said she’s had a busy July on the links that included finishing second in the Derryfield Women’s Club Championship. “I try to play nine holes three or four times a week,” she said. The low 60 and ties after 18 holes of golf yesterday and today will qualify for the State Amateur’s head-to-head single elimination play tomorrow at The Golf Club of New England in Stratham (Par 72, 5431 yards). “It’s a private club, I played their once last year,” Watt said. “There’s a lot of marsh and a lot of hazards on the course. Whoever played the smartest will win. I’m probably better off leaving my driver out of my bag there.” Watt has finished in the top 15 in the state amateur and hopes for big things this week. “I’m feeling really confident,” she said. “The ladies I was playing with last Wednesday were really complimentary of my game. ‘That was amazing to watch,’ one of them said. It wasn’t like you’re typical routine round, I know now how I can play.”
