3DAYFORECAST

Saturday High: 80 Record: 96 (1988) Sunrise: 5:46 a.m.

LOS ANGELES — It had all the makings of another turbulent moment for the Los Angeles Police Department, an agency once notorious for an “L.A. Confidential” style of heavy-handed policing, hostile relations with minorities and corruption. Two months after triumphantly announcing the arrest of a suspect in a brutal beating at Dodger Stadium, the police admitted that they had arrested the wrong man, and charged two other people with the crime.

But unlike other potentially explosive episodes that have rocked this department over the decades, there were no indignant denials or attacks on critics. Instead, the police chief, Charlie Beck, wrote an op-ed article in The Los Angeles Times explaining what had gone wrong and expressing regret at some of his own public comments.

“We can do much better,” Chief Beck wrote.

The moment reflected what has been a revolution for the police department that was once the model for Sgt. Joe Friday and “Dragnet.” Twenty years after the police beating of Rodney King was caught on videotape, and 10 years after the Justice Department imposed a consent decree to battle pervasive corruption in the Rampart Division, this has become a department transformed, offering itself up — in a way that not so many years ago would have been unthinkable — as a model police agency for the United States.

British police reject criticism on response to riots (NY Times) — As the death toll increased from four nights of rioting and arson this week, senior British police officers openly criticized political leaders on Friday for finding fault with the police handling of unrest that shook the nation and forced Prime Minister David Cameron to return home early from vacation.

Announcing measures to curb the violence, Cameron told an emergency session of Parliament on Thursday that police tactics had been inadequate when the riot-

ing started in the north London area of Tottenham on Saturday. Theresa May, the minister in charge of policing, also claimed responsibility for telling the police to cancel all leave to flood the streets with officers — a tactic that seemed on Friday to have produced a relative calm across the nation.

Earlier, unrest and violence had spread far from London to major cities including Manchester in the northwest and Birmingham in the English Midlands.

“There were simply far too few police

deployed on to our streets,” Cameron said of the initial days of the riots this week, “and the tactics they were using weren’t working.”

The criticism apparently was not taken well by Scotland Yard, where its acting commissioner, Tim Godwin, hit back in remarks to reporters on Friday. “I think after any event like this, people will always make comments who weren’t there,” Godwin said, apparently alluding to the overseas vacations of Cameron, May and Boris Johnson, the mayor of London.

Stocks hold on to modest At least 15 reported killed gains to end a wild week in latest Syria protests PARIS (NY Times) — France and Britain urged NATO on Tuesday to intensify airstrikes against Col. Muammar el-Qaddafi’s forces and called on the alliance to do more to shield noncombatants from loyalist attacks.

“So the U.N. sanctions a no-fly zone, which morphs into dropping bombs on Tripoli. Where’s the legality in that? But I guess this is democracy we are defending right?”

The remarks could well embolden rebels who have proved

unable to hold on to terrain captured from loyalist forces in weeks of advances and retreats along the coastal highway leading westward from the insurgents’ redoubts in eastern Libya.

The comments by William Hague, the British foreign secretary, and Alain Juppé, the French foreign minister, also appeared to signal a rift within the alliance only eight days after it assumed command from the United States for the air campaign over Libya.

BEIRUT, Lebanon (NY Times) — Tens of thousands of Syrians in cities and towns around their country took to the streets on Friday after noon prayers shouting “We will not kneel” in a strong show of defiance against the government of President Bashar al-Assad, and at least 15 protesters were killed by security forces, human rights activists and residents said.

The demonstrations were smaller than those held in past weeks, but they were significant because they came after security forces took control this month of the country’s two most restive cities, Hama in central Syria and Deir al-Zour in the east, in a military operation that activists say left hundreds dead. The demonstrations on Friday were a clear sign the armed forces could not intimidate protesters into staying home.

August rarity: Bear problems

BY LLOYD JONES THE CONWAY DAILY SUN

CONWAY — Do not feed the bears.

That’s the message New Hampshire Fish and Game is trying to hammer home to citizens and tourists alike here in the Mount Washington Valley.

August is traditionally a quiet month on the bear front, but it’s been anything but quiet with bear sightings and complaints abounding.

“It’s been kind of an odd time of year for this to be happening,” Andy Timmins, bear project leader for N.H. Fish and Game, said by phone Friday. “This summer has been relatively quiet up until the last few weeks, it’s gotten very busy and I’m not sure why. It’s odd because up until the last week or two this has been one of the fewest bear complaints for a summer in years.”

A mother bear and her three cubs have been spotted in Glen while a sow

and a rare four cub litter have been seen roaming around near Bartlett village.

“Three cubs is not all that rare given the average cub production is 2.7,” Timmins said. “Four is getting a little more rare. We’re finding that bears having access to human food and putting on more weight have been producing larger litters.”

Cubs in the Granite State are typically born in January and stay with their mothers for eight months or so.

“We use August as a date of a cub is orphaned. After that period, their chances of survival are dramatically increased,” Timmins said.

There have been countless other incidents such as the bear getting into Jim Westhall’s garage in Hale’s Location on Friday night; a bear breaking into Rebecca Kaplan’s child’s room and see BEARS page 6

by Fish and Game in July 21. A bear and her cub were treed in Intervale on Wednesday.

Also on Wednesday a baby bear cub was seen with a barrel around its head in Bartlett. Fish and Game officials had to anesthetize the cub, removal the barrel and then later place the cub in a foster home.

“Jake (Borgeson, bear technician and wildlife specialist for the United States Department of Agriculture) and I were there,” Timmins said and was surprised by what he saw. “We responded within a quarter of a mile of that area in April with a cub with the exact same problem.

Two bears (with barrels on their heads) that close of distance within six months, the likelihood of that happening is so rare. It leads me to believe someone is feeding them or also putting out a selfdispensing feeder for pets.

“We ended up taking the cub to a rehabilitator for a couple of reasons,” he added, “one, because there was lots of traffic and because we couldn’t find the sow. The cub will be released in the spring.”

The Carroll County Sheriff’s Office received a report of a bear on the screened porch of a home on Liberty Lane in Freedom rummaging through trash on Aug. 7. According to a press release from Sheriff Christopher Conley, a deputy and Freedom police officer were dispatched to the scene.

“When the first unit arrived the bear was no longer at the scene,” the release

states, “but had caused significant damage to the door leading onto the porch. The area was secured until the trash could be cleaned up and removed from the scene for disposal off site. The resident was provided with information on proper storage and disposal of the trash and Fish and Game was notified of the incident.

“Local residents and visitors are reminded that bears are very active during this time of year preparing for their winter hibernation,” the release continued. “They are opportunists for easily obtained food such as garbage, bird seed, bird feeders and on some gases even gas grills have been overturned by the hungry bears looking for a meal. Trash and other similar food items should be secured in areas where bears do not have the ability to access them.”

The biggest concern for wildlife officials is people’s penchant for feeding bears, either intentionally or through neglect. When a bear begins to associate people with food, they lose their natural fear and become more assertive.

“They will eat 24/7” Timmins said.

“While the food is the goal, a lifestyle and culture emerges and literally changes the animal. We know there are people in the Kearsarge and North Conway area who are still feeding them.

We’ve been trying to make people aware of the risks.

“A lot of dumpsters have been getting hit,” he continued. “They’re being left unsecured and that’s an issue.”

Tele-Talk

What do you think the effects would be if the state cuts back on snow plowing this winter?

A reduction in state highway funds may mean motorists will be traveling on snowier roadways this winter. N.H. Department of Transportation is proposing to cut back on snow plowing, particularly between the hours of 9 p.m. and 4 p.m., and letting more snow build up on roads before sending out the plowing crews. “We’re not going to be able to provide the same level of service,” says DOT’s Bill Boynton. “People will notice a difference.” But state Rep. Gene Chandler, R-Bartlett, says the plan the state has come up with is “unacceptable” and would have a “tremendous negative impact” on tourism and the skiing industry. “I could see us losing skiers to Vermont and Maine if this new policy happens,” Chandler said. He said if DOT doesn’t come up with an alternative plan, legislators will.

Off the Wall Some of the comments posted on The Conway Daily Sun’s Facebook page this past week: A Fryeburg woman, Natasha Repass, is going skydiving Aug. 22 to “take my day back” that a rapist took from her three years ago. She’s also creating a non-profit group to help other sexual assault victims start anew.

“Wonderful to hear something so terrible and horrifying becoming transformed into a such positive direction. Way to go Natasha.” — James Becker “I’ve been thinking about finding a good organization to do volunteer work for. This may be just what I’m looking for.” — Elinor Pater “Something like this is needed. Women helping women!

I like it!” — Bonny O’Brien Garland “Tasha, you are inspiring!” — Julianne Hawthorne Brosnan “This could be the start of a community event, “Take Back the Day.” — Brian Charles As the 10th anniversary of the terrorist attacks approaches, how has 9/11 changed your life?

“9/11 didn’t impact me directly, but it’s made me lose faith in the human race as a whole and look at people a little differently.” — Lisa Weaver “9/11 was yet another reminder that our lives can be destroyed in an instant — and when we least expect it. If everyone put their cards on the table, after looking at some other people’s hands, we would probably take our cards back pretty quick.” — Julie James “Makes me nervous to fly, not because of terrorists, but the TSA. Plus, I’d say the resultant two wars have certainly not been any kind of a solution. Remember ‘Mission Accomplished?’ If only.” — Karen Cummings “My daughter was born 9/11/01. Made me upset that

she was born in a different world that day.” — Amy FraiseBoyd “Makes me realize that we, as Americans can come together in a time of tragedy and comfort each other, and rally together to show the true resolve of this country. Made me proud to be a first responder and more proud to be an American.” — Tee Rendleman “As insensitive as this will likely sound, it didn’t change anything for me in the slightest. I have never flown anywhere, so I’ve never had to deal with TSA regulations pre- or post-9/11. I didn’t know anyone there when it happened, nor do I know anyone who was directly affected by it. As much as it was tragic for people who were senselessly killed and their families, it has had zero effect on my life directly.” — Bob Ferreira Town of Conway cracking down on people who take items from the metals pile at the transfer station: “At first I was thinking our police must have higher priorities, like drug crimes. However, since this is only a few regular thieves, I imagine they could put a stop to it with a few arrests (and re-arrests for some) and the problem will be at least mostly solved.” — Kline Seminars and Business Coaching “There have always been dump pickers. Get over it! And I don’t believe it’s stealing. In most cases it’s recycling — isn’t that a good thing? I can understand the liability part but stealing? No way! Most of these people are poor and picking at the dump helps them survive. Leave them alone; we got bigger problems. Remember our outdated state motto, ‘Live Free or Die.’” — Claes Swede Hermanson “Show us where is says the Town of Conway owns the metal once it goes into the dumpster and then and only then will I agree with hauling folks off to jail for stealing from the town.” — David Robinson

THE CONWAY DAILY SUN, Saturday, August 13, 2011— Page 11

IN REVIEW NATIONAL PERSPECTIVE

Eleanor’s Little Village ARTHURDALE, W. Va. — More than three-quarters of a century ago this forgotten community, tucked in a wrinkle of rugged West Virginia, was surrounded by poverty and privation. The mines nearby were quiet, the miners unemployed, hopeless. Prosperity — even the merest, meanest prospect of subsistence — was a cruel, unattainable notion; it was not around any corner anywhere close to here.

And yet suddenly there were stirrings in these hills.

Homes were built, farms laid out, a school established.

Small crafts industries were sprouting. An assembly building began to take shape. A tea room opened.

The first lady of the United States dropped by. Sometimes a band struck up the Virginia reel, and Eleanor Roosevelt — the portrait of sobriety, nobody's idea of a good-time girl, indeed nobody's idea of a woman who knew what a good time was — was caught up in that folk dance.

Today this community, the first of the nation's 99 New Deal communities, is all but forgotten again. It is a monument to Depression-era social engineering, a landmark in the history of American economic experiments, a highly successful and deeply flawed effort at government planning, and yet the world goes on beyond Arthurdale, paying little mind to what happened here — what was tried here, when hope was a thing with feathers but without a nesting place.

The story began when Lorena Hickok, The Associated Press writer who very likely was Roosevelt's lover, set out to portray America in Depression and visited Scotts Run, where she found housing "most Americans would not have considered fit for pigs."

She later returned with Roosevelt, who said the "filth was indescribable" and who left determined to provide an antidote to the despair she found amid the tipples, the slag piles, the black shanties planted on the sides of the gulches and the stirrings of radical labor groups like the National Miners Union, backed by the Communist Party.

Of all the Washington undertakings designed to battle communism — secret wars in Central America, two overt wars in Asia, a bungled invasion of Cuba, witch hunts in the State Department and Hollywood — the assault on poverty in Scotts Run is among the most benign. The Pumpkin Papers on Whittaker Chambers' farm and the intercepted cables of the Cold War never possessed the moral power that Roosevelt found in the contents of a miner's weekly pay envelope. It was $1.

Before long Washington bought a swath of land belonging to a Pittsburgh businessman, Richard Arthur, and a social experiment was under way. The government built 165 homes in Arthurdale; all but five remain today, many quite handsome. Banish your Great Society images of government housing projects; these were single-family homes with room to swing a cat and, outside, to plant a garden, with a cistern and root cellar out back.

Then the government invited applications, asking potential homesteaders to indicate the proper planting distance for rows of beets, cabbage and snap peas, and inquiring whether a bushel of oats weighs more or less than a bushel of buckwheat. In those days, in these hills, standardized tests had real stakes, and letters from the admissions office had real consequences.

This is the letter hundreds hoped to receive: "We are happy to tell you that you have been accepted for residence in Arthurdale. Please call at my office on

David Shribman

Saturday, Oct. 26, at 9:00 a.m. to obtain your house and lot assignment."

Let's not pretend this was not controversial, for its racist air (no blacks allowed) and particularly for its socialist tint (in the first eight months, the government spent $435,645 on this project). "For two years," the Saturday Evening Post wrote, "the presumed virtues of a projected planned economy have been contrasted with the muddling of an existing capitalism."

Some described this village planted on an old farmstead as American Marxism. If it wasn't the apotheosis of the welfare state, Arthurdale was at the very least a welfare town, a creation and ward of the government, with central planning down to the refrigerators Roosevelt picked herself. Other communities like it sprung up around the country, one in Alaska, 13 in Arkansas, 11 in Texas, eight in Nebraska.

In truth, Franklin Delano Roosevelt would have done anything — tack right, dip left, do a political Virginia reel, forward and back — to salve the Depression. He was no political purist. And if the New Deal homestead and resettlement communities like Arthurdale looked a little bit like communes on the Russian steppes painted with Norman Rockwell hues, the camps and barracks of the Civilian Conservation Corps had a faint whiff of German paramilitary groups with the sweet perfume of Boy Scout values ("to help other people at all times").

In a way Arthurdale, known as Eleanor's Little Village, is the physical symbol of the New Deal — a little experimentation, a little companionable collectivism, a heavy dose of reform rhetoric and, of course, a University of Chicago theorist. (One of the members of the school advisory committee was John Dewey.)

Arthurdale High School graduated three people in each of the Classes of 1935, 1936 and 1937. The town's pupils studied geology and botany, learned spinning, tanning and churning, and produced plays for the community.

It was, as Eleanor Roosevelt put it, "a laboratory in every way." At this distance it is clear that it was an economic failure but a social success. It salvaged some lives, allowing dozens of American families with no prospects to leap into the middle class in one generation, which is part of the American miracle. But it never became self-sufficient, which is part of the American creed.

We might think of Arthurdale as a splinter from the American oak, a utopian community planted far from urban centers and animated by rural values. But like most of them — Old Economy Village in Pennsylvania, New Harmony in Indiana, Brook Farm in Massachusetts — it couldn't sustain itself, even though it was underwritten by taxpayer dollars and was in fact an arm of the government, both anathema to the more famous pietist and transcendentalist enclaves.

But for all their communal aspects, Arthurdale and its New Deal cousins remind us of the power of an individual to make change — and, in moments of deep despondency, to offer hope. "I can remember Mrs. Roosevelt coming, but I did not realize how special her visits were," said Richard Myers. "I just thought she visited every community." If only she could have.

–––––––––––––––––––––– LETTERS ––––––––––––––––––––––

Social interaction class should be required To the editor: At approximately 2:15 p.m. on Saturday, Aug. 6, I had the misfortune to be in a sandwich shop on “the strip.” The restaurant was crowded, all tables and chairs were filled and a lengthy line was inching forward — all good for the local economy, but more on that later. My order was taken and being filled when the woman to my left began arguing with the young man waiting on her, insisting that she knew how to do his job better. Her voice, increasing in volume, was joined by a Greek chorus of apparent family/friends, encouraging her to continue her assault. She demanded that another employee fill her order; somewhere in all that she allowed as how things were done much better “back home.” Deeply engrossed in the disgraceful spectacle she was creating, she missed my comment to “go home and stay there.” This disgusting display was still in progress when I left.

In the 12 years that I have lived here, I’ve witnessed an alarming increase in this and similar conduct exhibited by guests in our state. The results are twofold — first, the appalling lack of civility displayed in these behaviors reflects attitudes learned elsewhere, resulting in truly embarrassing wherever “home” is. Secondly, the local population responds with resentment and animosity as visitors overrun our towns, clog our streets with traffic, dispatch obscene amounts of garbage onto our land and into our water and comport themselves in a manner reminiscent of an Old West saloon. Yes, I know the argument that we need to tolerate — even welcome — them

because they are essential to our economy. And most locals pay lip service to this idea while inwardly furious over the continued destruction of the North Country.

I would suggest that much of the excessive development that has been inflicted on our beautiful area is in direct response to their presence and demands for what they are familiar with “back home.” That was confirmed by the customer’s inference to wherever it is she inhabits when not gracing us with her rudeness.

Big box stores, strip malls, chain restaurants, motels, drug stores and more asphalt to reach them are all here now because it duplicates what the ‘aways’ apparently can’t survive without. Prior to this invasion, local businesses, owned by family and friends provided all that was necessary to the local population and created the picturesque scenes that calendars are made of. These tourists come here in search of that very quaintness and charm and their very presence destroys it.

I would gladly pay a state income tax if with it came a guarantee these same people would never travel here.

In my dreams we build a moat around our beloved state, but it turns into a nightmare as these aliens build replicas of our precious covered bridges to span the water and they all return.

Perhaps instead of toll booths, we should use these structures to teach required courses in appropriate social interaction and gracious manners before crossing our borders. Size alone would limit the peasants.

Curling Club hopes to build interest with Curl-a-Palooza

BY TOM EASTMAN AND LLOYD JONES THE CONWAY DAILY SUN

“Curling up to curling.” It has a nice rink to it, doesn’t it?

Members of the newly-formed Mount Washington Valley Curling Club are doing just that, as they prepare for the region’s first-ever “Curl-a-Palooza” scheduled for the glistening ice sheet at the Ham Ice Arena on West Main Street in Conway from 4 to 8 p.m. Saturday, Aug. 20.

In case you missed the last two Olympics, when it was one of the most closely watched of all televised sports, curling is a sport in which players slide stones across a sheet of ice toward a target area. It is related to bowls, boule and shuffleboard.

During a practice session at the Ham this week, club board president Pat Kittle of Minuteman Press and accomplished curler Pete Ellis, formerly of Cape Cod and now of Madison, took to the ice sheet with the press while outlining their goals for the Curl-a-Palooza.

“This is our inaugural public event. It’s intended to raise awareness in Conway and the surrounding communities that the sport of curling is being launched here in the White Mountains and to get people to sign up for league play, which begins in October,” said Kittle, a longtime Ham Arena board member who is new to the sport. He is nonetheless eager to see it blossom here in the valley, as well as perhaps in nearby Berlin, Wolfeboro and Bridgton — all towns with arenas which may help to foment participation in the Ham’s program.

For the Curl-a-Palooza, Kittle said a group from the Nashua Curling Club will be putting on a demonstration match, with explanations of the rules and strategy provided by knowledgeable participants.

“Almost There Sports Tavern has graciously volunteered to provide refreshments [for the event], and we will have a number of door prizes and a raffle, with three lucky winners invited to throw a curling stone to determine the grand prize winner. There is no cost to the public to attend Curl-a-Palooza,” said Kittle, who says that the club has had approximately 120 people express interest in curling locally via e-mail “with very little promotion to date.

“We would ideally like to get exposure in the outlying communities as well, as other clubs have told us they have members traveling from as far away as an hour to curl,” said Kittle.

Another 200 have become friends on the club’s Facebook page.

The club will run its new curling league from midOctober through April on Saturday nights.

In addition to the Curl-a-Palooza on Aug. 20, other upcoming important dates are: • Sept. 10 and 17: Learn-to-Curl nights: A short classroom lesson on the rules of the sport, this session will include on-ice instructions and practice.

• Oct. 15: Opening night for the 2011-12 curling season.

Cost for memberships vary: a full membership is $120 for people who want to curl weekly. A trial membership is $60, which entitles a player to curl the first half of the season to see if they like it. A third option is a social membership, which costs $75 and allows a player to take to the sheet two times a month. A $15 fee is charged each week for ice time.

At the Curl-a-Palooza Aug. 20, in between the demonstrations by the Nashua clubs, a raffle drawing will be held in which the names of three spectators will be drawn — those winners will get the chance to take to the ice and try their luck at curling that night. The person whose stone lands closest to the target — the “button” in the middle of the circle, or “house” — will get a free club membership, says

The newly-formed Mount Washington Valley Curling Club is scheduled to host a “Curl-a-Palooza” open house at the Ham Ice Arena on West Main Street in Conway from 4 to 8 p.m. Saturday, Aug. 20, as well as two learn-to-curl nights in September, followed by weekly league play on Saturdays in October.

••• Ellis and Kittle note that curling is a sport that appeals to all ages.

“It’s very popular in Canada — and on Cape Cod where I lived before moving here,” said Ellis, who sits on the newly formed local curling club’s board of directors and who with his wife Paula has competed

in leagues on the Cape.

“We think there will be a lot of interest,” said Kittle, who notes that not only is the sport good exercise, but a fun way to enjoy some camaraderie on a Saturday night.

“Sportsmanship is very much a part of the game.

Like that other Scottish game, golf, etiquette and the rules are very important with curling,” said Ellis.

••• As Ellis noted, curling is thought to have been invented in medieval Scotland, with the first written reference to a contest using stones on ice coming from the records of Paisley Abbey, Renfrewshire, in February 1541. see CURLING page 18

Kennett High track to be named after coach Bernie Livingston

BY LLOYD JONES THE CONWAY DAILY SUN

CONWAY — The Conway School Board has voted unanimously to name the track at Kennett High School after Bernie Livingston, who has been the head coach of the boys’ and girls’ varsity program for 30 years. It will be known as The Livingston Oval.

The recommendation to honor Livingston came from members of the track team, who gathered over 100 signatures in support.

“It’s very humbling,” Livingston said by phone Wednesday. “When I sit back and think about it, my first reaction is, ‘Me, really?’ I was quite surprised, but it’s so nice to see the family recognized.”

For the past 30 years, it’s been Team Livingston at running events across the Mount Washington Valley with Livingston and Eileen, his wife, either running each track or cross-country meet or involved in some fashion. Son Tim Livingston is an assistant track coach at Kennett.

Bernie Livingston, who is entering his 30th season at the helm of the Kennett boys’ and girls’ cross-country teams, will be officially recognized on Oct. 7 at halftime of the homecoming football game.

“What’s nice is the kids thought enough to do this,” Livingston said. “As you get older as a coach you begin to wonder if what you’re doing is still relevant. It’s never been about the wins and losses to me, although wins are important, don’t get me wrong, but it’s how you get there that’s important. If the kids are still able to get that, then I’ve done my job.

“Thirty years of coaching track,” he added, “it makes you kind of sit back and say, ‘Wow.’” A naming committee made of Kennett High principal Neal Moylan, school athletic director Kerry Brady, and Conway School Board members Janine McLauchlan and Lynne Brydon met after the request was made for the track.

The committee was charged with submitting three recommendations for school board consideration. Its first choice was The Livingston Oval followed by The Bernie Livingston Oval and The Livingston Track. The school board selected The Livingston Oval.

Several recent members of the track team attended Monday’s school board meeting.

“We’re all really hoping for The Livingston Oval because we feel it kind of encompasses what the whole family see next page

has done,” Hannah Wright, who ran track for Kennett High for four years and graduated in June, said. “Coach Livingston has been absolutely vital in some of the best experiences in my life.”

Fellow recent graduate Brian Fox also spoke about the bond the Livingston family instills on the Eagles. “I feel like I’m leaving a close-knit family,” he said. “Coach Livingston is one of the best coaches I’ve ever had.”

“I think it’s great that the students came forward on their own with this recommendation,” school board member Randy Davison said. “They’re right: It is the whole family that get involved in the program. The Livingston family in general is a great asset to this community. I think he’s an amazing person.”

The Livingston Oval becomes the seventh item on the Redstone campus to be named after someone.

In February, 2008, the school board approved the naming of the Robert Burns Sr. Baseball Field after longtime coach Bob Burns — although a dedication ceremony is still yet to take place, and honored then-high school principal Jack Loynd’s request to name the school auditorium after his late mother, who taught the arts for nearly seven decades in Massachusetts. It is known today as The Loynd Auditorium.

A month later, an athletic field was named after other members of Loynd’s family, his late in-laws, Rose and Lawrence Centola. The naming

of the field after the Centolas was a reversal of the naming committee’s original position, which rejected the idea in January when Loynd submitted the request along with the auditorium’s. At the time the committee determined it did not meet the criteria in the board’s naming policy.

The current naming policy (revised four times since 1979) reads: “If the board finds it appropriate to name schools, special facilities within the school or playing fields, these criteria shall be used: The name shall reflect: 1. political, geographic or geologic characteristics of the area. 2. Persons who have performed meritoriously locally or beyond this community. Their prominence could be the result of their noteworthy achievements in such fields as education, science, art, music, literature, the military, government, sports, etc. In other words, because of their service to their fellowmen, or exceptional talent, their names deserve to be long remembered.”

In July of 2008, the policy was upgraded to include: “A public hearing must be held on the name recommendations prior to board approval.” That happened for the first time Monday.

Other items named in March of 2008 were: the press box in the Millen Stadium as “The John Marsden Press Box;” the dugouts for the varsity baseball field were named “In Memory of John Marsden and Stoney Morrell”; and the Arthur Walker Concession Stand after the late Art Walker, the former president of the Kennett High Football Boosters, who died in 2007.

CURLING from page 14

In the sport, according to the popular website Wikipedia.com, two teams, each of four players, take turns sliding heavy, polished granite stones, also called “rocks,” across the ice curling sheet toward the house, a circular target marked on the ice. Each team has eight stones. The purpose is to accumulate the highest score for a game, points being scored for the stones resting closest to the center of the house at the conclusion of each end, which is completed when both teams have thrown all of their stones. A game may consist of 10 or eight ends.

“The curler can induce a curved path by causing the stone to slowly turn as it slides, and the path of the rock may be further influenced by two sweepers with brooms who accompany it as it slides down the sheet, using the brooms to alter the state of the ice in front of the stone,” the site states. “A great deal of strategy and teamwork goes into choosing the ideal path and placement for each situation, and the skills of the curlers determine how close to the desired result the stone will achieve. This gives the game its nickname of ‘Chess On Ice.’ “ “Learning to read the sheet is like studying the grass on a green for a golfer,” said Ellis the day of our visit.

••• Ellis explained that the curling stone, as defined by the World Curling Federation, is a thick stone disc weighing between 38

and 44 pounds (17 and 20 kg) with a handle attached to the top.

We turned to Wikipedia for further background.

“Traditionally, curling stones were made from two specific types of granite called ‘Blue Hone’ and ‘Ailsa Craig Common Green,’ found on Ailsa Craig, an island off the Ayrshire coast in Scotland. Blue Hone has very low water absorption, which prevents the action of freezing and melting water from eroding the stone.

Ailsa Craig Common Green granite is a lesser quality granite than Blue Hone. In the past, most curling stones were made from Blue Hone; however, the island is now a wildlife reserve and the quarry has closed. The second location where granite comes from to manufacture curling stones from is in Northern Wales.

This granite is called ‘Trefor’ and comes in shades of blue/gray and red/brown. The quarry in Wales that supplies the granite to its exclusive curling stone manufacturing company in Canada, Canada Curling Stone Co., is a full and active quarry and it is not anticipated to ever run out of this granite for making curling stones. Canada Curling Stone Co. has been manufacturing curling stones since 1992. The cost of new Trefor granite curling stones is about $600 CAD a stone.”

To get outfitted with equipment, Kittle says the Mount Washington Valley Curling Club raised about $5,000 and received a matching grant from the Gibson-Woodbury Foundation. “We

purchased one set of stones for $3,200, with 16 stones per set. To buy the other two sets, a member of the Cape Cod Curling Club loaned us $6,400, so we have three sets,” said Kittle.

••• Although he’s president of the club (“They had a club meeting which I couldn’t attend, and you know what happened — they named me president,” joked Kittle), Thursday and Friday marked his first time on the ice to try curling.

Kittle said the club held a oneend game, with eight players at the club training session at the Ham Friday. For the record, Kittle said he wants it to be known that he “scored the first curling point!”

At Thursday’s session with some members of the press, Ellis and his wife, Paula, gave Kittle, an avid golfer, and later, this ice-loving, hockey-playing reporter, some tips on how to release the stones.

There’s a natural grace to the sport, we quickly learned, where balance and timing of the release are everything.

To start, players squat down, in a track-like crouched position.

Kittle and I are both being right handed, we put our left foot into the “slipper,” which — as its name implies — makes your tennis shoe slide over the ice.

We then put our right foot into the “hack,” the plate which is bored into the ice. We then each grabbed two of the stones and with a rocking motion, released the handled tops from the “house” see next page

— one of the three circles we were firing from — and sent our stones on their way, while gliding forward with our right knee bent in an almost kneeling position above the ice surface.

Ellis, being the sweeper, ran out ahead, using his “broom” to sweep the ice to make the stones travel farther and to “curl” (or spin) less.

(Being a hockey player, it felt weird to be on the ice and not be on skates — and to be on the ice without a hockey stick in our hands. Or, for that matter, to wonder how one puts in a body check in the sport of curling. The answer is, you don’t.)

“A lot of the people who came to our meetings are not hockey players; they therefore would be new to the Ham, which would bring in new revenue to the arena,” said Kittle.

••• Darrell Umlah, director of the 1998opened Ham Ice Arena, is hopeful curling will become the next big sport in the Mount Washington Valley.

In April, Umlah told the Sun he envisions the sport growing to be like a local dart league.

He said 52 people attended an organizational meeting at the Ham in April to gauge interest, with “seven or eight” of the attendees having extensive curling experience, including the Ellises.

“There were some folks from Canada who have played along with some from Minnesota and we even had one gal from Sweden who coached curling in Canada. We’re definitely well on our way. Hopefully we’ll get to the point where one day we can host a bonspiel (a curling tournament with teams from across North America),” said Umlah.

CREMATION

While people may think it’s cute to feed the bears, a fed bear often ends up becoming a dead bear. Timmins said there is plenty of natural food available to the bruins this summer.

“There are tons of raspberries and blackberries and the beechnut crop is very good this year,” he continued. “My best guess is that by the end of the month we should see the problems drop off. The bears are going to quickly realize the beechnuts on the ridges are so much more nutritious for them.”

The statewide black bear population is considered relatively stable and currently is about 4,800 bears.

In 2006, the path was cleared for fines to be levied on anyone irresponsibly feeding bears. Fines can be as high as $1,000.

“There have been fines issued this year,” Timmins said. “We’re starting to make some headway in this area but still have a ways to go.”

Homeowners should take action to reduce the chances of a bear visiting their home. Borgeson said you can prevent bear visits by taking a few simple precautions: * Clean up any spilled bird seed and dispose of it in the trash. * Secure all garbage in airtight containers inside a garage or adequate storage area, and put garbage out on the morning of pick-up, not the night before. * Avoid putting meat or other food scraps in your compost pile. * Don’t leave pet food dishes outside overnight. * Clean and store outdoor grills after each use. * Never intentionally feed bears.

These steps will help to ensure that your backyard does not become attractive to bears. This is important because it prevents property damage by bears and because it keeps bears from becoming “nuisance” animals.

“If you see a bear acting unusually comfortable around people, the best thing to do is to try and scare it off,” Borgeson said. “Everyone has pots and pans in their kitchen. Bang them, or a compressed see next page

Destroying bears is not the answer, nor is relocating them. We need to educate the public.”

U.S. Wildlife Services works in partnership with the N.H. Fish and Game Department to minimize wildlife-human conflicts, including those associated with black bears. In

2009, Wildlife Services fielded 2,062 wildlife-related requests for assistance, almost a full third (32 percent) of which involved bears. Each year, Wildlife Services also hires two bear technicians in New Hampshire during May through August, when the majority of bear complaints are received.

These bear technicians, in partnership with N.H. Fish and Game Department field staff, work closely with the general public to educate them about bear behavior and to directly resolve bear/human conflicts.

The land of the pointed firs Hiking –––––

I like to head north in the summer to do a few hikes in the land of the pointed firs.

Ed Parsons This Tuesday I did the 8.3 mile round trip hike to Rogers Ledge in the Kilkenny Region of the White Mountain Nation Forest.

There are a couple of reasons that got me thinking of the north country this week. One, was that I didn’t get up there with my hiking friend Carl who was here on vacation the two previous weeks. We did get to three nice wild areas, but not to the north country, as we usually do.

The second occurred one recent morning in Conway, when, to the amazement of many, a big truck went through town, heading north with one giant propeller blade for a wind farm project. At that point, I was unfamiliar with the Granite Reliable Wind Farm being built in Dummer, north of Berlin, where 33 giant wind towers will soon rise on a number of mountain ridges.

Anyway, I thought I'd head north. As Annie Dillard said in the days before computers, a blank sheet of paper on the desk in front of you has so much potential. The north country would be my blank sheet.

It was a grace period, the day before a day of rain.

That added to the good feeling of getting in a hike.

I drove north to Berlin, turned west on Route 110, and in 7.4 miles, turned left on the York Pond Road.

Taking a right at the fork, in a few miles I passed the gate of the Berlin Fish Hatchery, then turned right up to the main building. I parked next to it, walked up a field behind it to the hatchery’s pump house on Cold Brook. The trail started behind the pond.

This was actually the 3.8 mile Mill Brook Trail.

In the old days, it was part of a through route from Stark village to York Pond. Today, only the southern half still exists, as a hiking trail to access Roger’s Ledge. It is flat, and travels through attractive, wild country — the first half along Cold Brook. Then it continues along a hillside, and terminates at a junction with the Kilkenny Ridge Trail. Taking a right there, it is a steepening 0.6 miles top the top of Roger’s Ledge.

The AMC White Mountain Guide calls Rogers Ledge “a spectacular, remote and seldom visited viewpoint.”

I certainly won’t disagree with that.

The southward view is amazing, sweeping around from the Mahoosucs, east of Berlin, south to the Presidentials, then including much of the nearby forested Kilkenny Region, and ending in the handsome lower peaks of the Pilot Range to the west. The ledge itself is a fine pale granite, and the perfect place for lunch.

On the way back down the steep trail from the top of Rogers Ledge, I spied a much larger nearby ledge to the northeast. Looking on the map, I saw it was called Square Mountain.

It looked like a likely place for rock climbers. Later, I looked it up, and found that two local climbers — one a professional guide from Madison, and another, a reporter for The Conway Daily Sun, had recently put up an impressive route on it, negotiating a big overhang along the way.

It was a small north country world.

And on Tuesday, heading home by early afternoon, it felt a little like my hike into a “remote and seldom visited viewpoint” hadn’t taken nearly long enough. The ease of hiking in and out the flat Mill Brook Trail was a good part of the reason.

Later I was driving south past Story Land, and alas, another giant section of a wind turbine went by the other way on a long trailer, with two police escorts. What was happening to the north country?

Again I fished a little in cyberspace

for some answers. I found that looking at the Granite Reliable Wind Farm through the eyes of the Appalachian Mountain Club-- the east’s primary conservation organization-- was helpful, and likely the only way I could comprehend it.

Part of the AMC’s position on wind power, is to first realize that any large scale energy source is not totally environmentally benign. So, when they look at a specific development proposal, they look at not only the benefits, but the negative impact that might result. Unfortunately, in the northeast, the best wind is either found off the coast or on mountain peaks.

In 2008 or 9, the AMC approved of the location for 18 of the wind turbines on the Dummer (Granite Reliable) project. These were on two low ridges called Fishbrook and Owlhead. They did not approve, however, of develpment of a chain of 15 turbines on the ridges of Mounts Kelsey and Dixville, both higher peaks with “old growth sub-alpine spruce/fir forest, that provide high quality habitat for several of the state’s rarest and most vulnerable wildlife species.” These included the state threatened American martin, three toed woodpecker, and the Bicknell’s thrush. The AMC noted that these higher peaks would also serve as a refuge for spruce-fir forests during future climatic warming.

The New Hampshire Fish and Game Department joined the AMC in this assessment, and disapproved of the development on the Kelsey and Dixville ridges. see next page

Gazing down at the ground in late summer often reveals the attractive clubmosses underfoot in our forests.

They are in the genus Lycopodium and constitute quite a few species, even into the hundreds. They have quaint names like crow’s foot, running cedar, ground pine, and so forth — because they do look like miniature conifers. But they are not seedlings; instead are one of our most primitive vascular plants, related somewhat to ferns.

They may presently be found creeping typically along forest floors or even in tropical mountains, but clubmosses were once one of the most prevalent types of plants on Earth. During the Carboniferous period, clubmosses could achieve massive heights, growing as tall as some of today’s forest trees, which contributed greatly to the layers of organic material that would eventually develop into the coal deposits and used as a source of fossil fuels today.

Modern members of Lycopodium are obviously greatly reduced in size from their ancestors — as a common variety such as the stag’s horn moss will be found growing only about four inches

high and ten feet long in its runners within the forest floor. Some types are, however, epiphytic and may be seen wrapped around the branches of trees.

Christmas wreaths often use the various clubmosses in their construction as evergreen holiday décor. Sometimes gathering up all the crows’ foot, running cedar, lamb’s tail, wolf’s claw, fox tail, princess pine, or whatever species locally found can endanger these little plants if practiced on an unsustainable basis. I always think of that when a particular selection of botany gets too heavily collected.

Clubmosses reproduce sexually by means of their spores (like mushrooms, ferns and true mosses). Clubmosses have stems, which true mosses don’t, and the sporophyte, at least, has real roots while true mosses don’t have roots.

Clubmosses exist in two different forms, although only the aboveground spore producing variety is commonly seen. The leaves of these plants are long and narrow like needles, and strobili, cone-like clusters of diminutive leaves, are usually present as well. At see COUNTRY ECOLOGY page 26

However, both the AMC and Fish and Game approved of the site after the developers agreed to mitigate by permanently conserving 1,700 acres of nearby ridge top forest, by contributing $750,000 for use in conserving additional conservation land outside the site, and $200,000 for studying threatened species.

Also, no clearing would be allowed on the peaks between April 1 and Aug. 1 during bird nesting and rearing. The developer would also have to do a survey of migratory birds on the site during construction, then on the first, third and fifth year after construction, to help determine the extent of the adverse effects of wind turbines on these species.

It all sounds good, and was an effort to lessen the environmental cost of large scale green energy.

But in the end, it will contribute to the decline--not the increase--of endangered animals, birds and forests. It is a more subtle manifest destiny, rather than the more blatant form of the 1800s.

Many people agree that more effort should be put into small scale green energy on a personal and community level, whether in solar, wind or water.

That way, the energy would also stay local, rather than being shipped to the highest bidder.

I found some advisement on the web that Lycopodium works well as a homeopathic solution for those having great anxiety in their lives. “These are people who are lacking in confidence though they come across as arrogant or overly sarcastic. They have a great fear of being left alone and their emotional symptoms often manifest into physical ones.” The web sites state Lycopodium may work well as a homeopathic remedy for those who have a great fear of failing despite their greatest efforts.

“Such a person may feel as though there is nothing they can do to boost their self esteem and feel a constant sense of apprehension.” I will bet just walking in the woods itself might be a boon to this personality type. Does it for me.

ues to be of great help even now.

Spores were used by the Blackfoot people as an antiseptic and to stop nosebleeds. Clubmoss spores found their way into surgery as a dusting powder, and formerly even used to treat conditions like eczema. At one time the spores were popular as baby powder.

Whereas the spores are used solely in other applications, the preparation within homeopathy is far more extensive.

The homeopathic remedy of Lycopodium is made by taking the spikes of the plant which are cut in the summer season, and their spores are collected. These are then steeped in alcohol for a period of at least five days. Then this solution is filtered, diluted, and succussed.

What remains after this process is a homeopathic medicine that has helped many people and seems to continue to be used as such.

There were as many pages on this subject as there were in botanical descriptions of the many species described. I am not an herbalist, so leave that discussion to those in this craft.

I will point out, however, that

the base of each clubmoss strobilus is a small yellowish-orange sporangium, where the reproductive spores are produced and stored. When conditions are right, the sporangium bursts, releasing the spores, many of which rapidly grow into bisexual gametophytes. In some species, however, the development into the gametophytic form of the plant may take substantially longer, requiring as many as eight years to complete.

In researching this story, I found that these explosive spores were formerly used in photography. This reproductive product produced by the plants is highly flammable and was utilized as a flash powder for early cameras and was a common component of fireworks. The fine dust-like spores, which are very rich in oil, burn fast and bright, but with little heat.

Another thing I found while Googling: clubmosses have historic value in folk remedies. It seems that this plant genus has been used for medicinal purposes since the Middle Ages, and contin-

out of water. The water most have gone down so slowly that the trout had time to gradually adapt to the changing conditions. The trout and Charlie became inseparable.

In the evening, a small bed was prepared for the trout beside Charlie’s bed. During the day the trout would follow Charlie about as he did his chores around the family farm.

The trout was as tame as any dog or cat.

At last, in the fall, the rains came once again.

One day, as the trout followed Charlie around the farm he had the misfortune to slip and fall into a large puddle. Upon falling into the puddle the trout immediately drowned.

Apparently he had forgotten how to swim and more importantly how to breathe underwater.

Needless to say Charlie was heart broken.

I tried to track down the source of the story by doing a Google search and came up with the name of Ed Grant who lived in the Rangeley area of Maine in the 1800s. Ed was a guide and camp owner and from time to time was known as a storyteller. The Rangeley Outdoor Sporting Heritage Museum has a track written by Ed entitled “The Tame Trout” which appears to tell a similar tale.

THEATER REVIEW

‘Jesus Christ Superstar’ showcases great singing

BY ALEC KERR

THE CONWAY DAILY SUN

CONWAY — Arts in Motion Theater Company brings Andrew Lloyd Webber's “Jesus Christ Superstar” to the Loynd Auditorium stage for the next two weeks with shows Thursday through Sunday. Though based on a book you may have heard of, this is not your typical passion play.

“Jesus Christ Superstar” first appeared on Broadway in 1971 following the release of an album. The show is a rock opera loosely based on the gospels' accounts of the last week of Jesus' life with lyrics by Tim Rice that feature contemporary slang, attitudes and references. It isn't a black-and-white portrayal of these events and plays in the grays by showing Jesus' insecurities, doubts and flaws and his betrayer, Judas, as a tragic, even sympathetic figure.

Arts in Motion's production, working from a concept by Gregory Charette under the direction of Mary BastoniRebmann and music direction of Tracy Gardner, is a showcase for several good singers and some solid acting.

Rafe Matregrano returns to the role of Jesus Christ having previously performed it in M&D Productions' “Godspell.” He has a strong voice that is sometimes stretched to its limits, but when he stays with his range he has rather sweet voice.

Most importantly, Matregrano gets the emotions right. He does not hold back in this performance. His anger and hurt towards Judas is clearly visible on songs like “Strangething Mystifying” and “The Last Supper.” Matregrano is strongest on the more contemplative songs particularly on “Gesthsemane,” a song in which Jesus struggles with whether he is able to willingly let himself die.

Holly Reville is fantastic as Mary Magdalene. She has a pure, clear and beautiful voice that is perfectly highlighted on “Everything's Alright.” She brings a lot of warmth and compassion to the role. Her performance of “I Don't Know How to Love Him” is one of the show's best moment.

Paul Allen is sharing the role of Pilate with Matt Stoker. I saw Allen's take on the role, so I can only comment on that.

Allen has a powerful and commanding see next page

voice. He doesn't make an appearance until late in first act on “Pilate's Dream” and while he may not be the most beloved character, you're eager for his return.

Like Matregrano, Allen gives a complete performance. He doesn't simply sing the songs, but puts genuine feeling into them. “On Trial

By Pilate,” he makes his frustration toward Jesus clear as well as his unwillingness to condemn him and the pressure put on him from the masses calling for Jesus' death.

fully bring it across.

This microphone issue also marred Ged Owen's performance as Caiaphas, the high priest who sees Jesus as a threat to the nation. It is a shame as Owen gets to show off his capable use of the lower ranges of his voice. Unfortunately, sometimes you can't hear any of it. Hopefully, these audio issues were just opening night hiccups that will be sorted out as the show progresses.

Abby Miller has one solo as Simon Zealotes and her powerhouse voice is one that leaves a lasting impression.

Stacy Sand as King Herod has fun on “Herod Song.” The song is Herod's mocking plea to Jesus to perform some miracles and prove he is the son of God. Sand is flanked by a line of Rockette-style dancers and the number is the show's high-

light in terms of dancing.

Elsewhere it is the dancing that is the show's weakest element.

The stage often just feels cluttered and chaotic and it seems as if the performers are, at times, wandering around aimlessly. The show also feels somewhat disjointed with scenes working well together as stand-alone pieces, but not really ever connecting.

The use of video is largely superfluous, but other directing choices work extremely well as when Jesus' shadow falls on to the crucifix, the center piece of the set, during the interspective “Gesthsemane.”

Ultimately, it is the singing that make this worth checking out. Tickets are $15 and $12 for students and seniors. For more information or tickets, visit www. artsinmotiontheater.com.

DAILY CROSSWORD TRIBUNE MEDIA SERVICES

by Scott Adams

DILBERT

By Holiday Mathis that matter, whether to respond at all.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You can safely assume that people like and respect you. If they act differently, it has more to do with what they are going through than anything you might have said or done to them.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21).

Life is a party wherever you go. Some parties are more fun than others, but all will be better for your involvement. You make people smile and feel free to be themselves.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19).

You have a talent for understanding the dynamics of social interaction. You’ll put this super-strength to work for you.

You’ll note what you can and can’t control about the situation, and you’ll take charge where possible.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). This is your time to shine. You are friendly, charismatic and witty. You’ll make a terrific impression on someone who will help you down the road.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You are strong, able and ready to dive into a big project. Take the time to set up a system first. Then test and refine it.

A good system will make you 10 times more productive.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (August 13).

In many endeavors, a nontraditional approach suits you best this year. You’ll devise a unique method of working, and you will be promoted and paid well for it. The next six weeks bring unlikely friendships that are most enriching. An investment pays off in December. You’ll win a contest in January. Pisces and Scorpio people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 6, 26, 13 and 34.

Get Fuzzy

ARIES (March 21-April 19). You’ll be made aware that there’s much of the world you have yet to experience. You could have the sudden urge to travel and learn languages or sample bits of another culture in some other way.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Digital media is expedient, and yet personal touches will mean far more to the people with whom you are trying to connect. Extend a written invitation, love letter or thank-you note.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You would rather not have to explain your every move, so you’ll make an effort to slip “under the radar.” The only problem is that you’re so popular now that people pay attention to you even when you don’t want them to.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). Your mood is influential. You also have the power to make others feel very comfortable or very nervous. Impatience will only make things go slower than they otherwise would.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You have a tendency to push yourself, and some of the demands and expectations you come up with are unreasonable. Instead of setting an achievement goal, make it your goal to simply practice and learn.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Every once in a while, it’s nice to remind yourself not to get too carried away with your own thought processes. Stay away from the kind of ideas that always seem to lead in a negative direction.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Certain topics are sure to produce incendiary results now. Someone will lob a loaded conversational ball to you. You have a choice about how to respond and, for

THE CONWAY DAILY SUN, Saturday, August 13, 2011— Page 33

Today is Saturday, Aug. 13, the 225th day of 2011. There are 140 days left in the year.

Today’s Highlight in History: On Aug. 13, 1961, Berlin was divided as East Germany sealed off the border between the city’s eastern and western sectors and began building a wall that would stand for the next 28 years until it finally came down in 1989.

On this date: In 1521, Spanish conqueror Hernando Cortez captured Tenochtitlan, present-day Mexico City, from the Aztecs.

In 1624, King Louis XIII of France appointed Cardinal Richelieu (ree-shuhLYOO’) his first minister.

In 1704, the Battle of Blenheim was fought during the War of the Spanish Succession, resulting in a victory for English-led forces over French and Bavarian soldiers.

In 1846, the American flag was raised for the first time in Los Angeles.

In 1910, Florence Nightingale, the founder of modern nursing, died in London at age 90.

In 1932, Adolf Hitler rejected the post of vice chancellor of Germany, saying he was prepared to hold out “for all or nothing.”

In 1934, the satirical comic strip “Li’l Abner,” created by Al Capp, made its debut.

In 1960, the first two-way telephone conversation by satellite took place with the help of Echo 1.

In 1981, in a ceremony at his ranch, President Ronald Reagan signed a historic package of tax and budget reductions.

In 1989, searchers in Ethiopia found the wreckage of a plane which had disappeared almost a week earlier while carrying Texas Congressman Mickey Leland and 14 other people there were no survivors.

One year ago: Weighing in for the first time on a controversy gripping New York City and the nation, President Barack Obama endorsed allowing a mosque near ground zero, telling a White House dinner celebrating the Islamic holy month of Ramadan that the country’s founding principles demanded no less.

Today’s Birthdays: Former Cuban President Fidel Castro is 85. Actor Pat Harrington is 82. Former U.S. Surgeon General Joycelyn Elders is 78. Actor Kevin Tighe is 67. Actress Gretchen Corbett is 64. Opera singer Kathleen Battle is 63. High wire aerialist Philippe Petit is 62. Hockey Hall of Famer Bobby Clarke is 62. Comedian-writer Tom Davis is 59. Golf Hall of Famer Betsy King is 56. Movie director Paul Greengrass is 56. Actor Danny Bonaduce is 52. TV host/ weatherman Sam Champion is 50. Actress Dawnn Lewis is 50. Actor John Slattery is 49. Actress Debi Mazar is 47. Actress Quinn Cummings is 44. Actress Seana Kofoed is 41. Country singer Andy Griggs is 38. Country musician Mike Melancon is 33.

by Abigail Van Buren

GIRL WHILES AWAY HER SUMMER WAITING FOR THE PHONE TO RING

DEAR ABBY: I am 12 years old and I have a boyfriend, “Zak.” Since it’s summer, we don’t communicate with each other as much as usual. Most people would think we’d be more in touch, but since we’re both on vacation, we haven’t been. I always text his phone, but most of the time I never get an answer back. Or he’ll text, “I’m busy, I’ll text you later,” or “Sorry, can’t talk. I’ll call you later.” But he never does.

Not long ago, I talked to Zak on the phone for a short time and he said he’d call back the next day around noon. He never called at all that day. Sometimes I don’t hear from him for days on end.

Do you think I’m overreacting? Do you think he thinks I’m annoying? Maybe he feels I’m obsessing over him, I’m pretty sure if he wanted to end our relationship he would just come out and say it, but do you think he really does but doesn’t want to hurt me? Help, Abby! -- CRAZY ABOUT HIM IN ARKANSAS DEAR CRAZY: Zak appears to be a normal adolescent boy who has many interests -- and possibly parents who keep him busy. That would account for his not calling you later or returning your texts.

Rather than worrying about why he’s not performing up to your expectations, you should develop some other interests and activities so you won’t have so much time to worry about Zak. That way you’ll appear less needy, clingy and insecure, and you’ll be more attractive and interesting to be around once school starts again.

And one more thing: Think positive! Dwelling on the negative will only make you feel more unhappy and insecure than you’re feeling right now.

DEAR ABBY: Last fall, a horrible car accident claimed the life of a young local man. A roadside memorial of wreaths and memorabilia was erected. Since then, no one has tended the site, and the elements have take their toll on it. The offerings look like litter now. Would it be appropriate to remove the battered items? Or would a respectful cleanup of the site be in poor taste? -- PASSERBY IN MAINE DEAR PASSERBY: Roadside memorials are usually placed there by the family or friends of the deceased, who also tend to them. They are sometimes removed by street cleaning or highway maintenance crews when they have reached the stage you have described. A report made to the city or state department that’s in charge of maintaining the road would be better than attempting to do the job on your own, and also safer.

DEAR ABBY: My sister is an alcoholic and prescription drug abuser who causes a scene at every family gathering.

There will be an important family event soon, and we don’t want to invite her for fear she’ll ruin it by showing up drunk or high. My mother is mad and says it’s not right to ostracize my sister, and if she’s not invited, my mother will not attend, either. What should we do? -- NO DRAMA, PLEASE IN PENNSYLVANIA DEAR NO DRAMA: You have two choices. Invite your sister with the clear understanding that if she shows up drunk or high, your mother will remove her from the premises and see she gets safely home. Or, refuse to give in to your mother’s blackmail and tell her that if she chooses not to come, all of you will miss her. Period.

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

UNH Cooperative Extension

The Veggie Volunteer Program

The Veggie Volunteer Program is an amazing community based effort that provides nutritious fresh produce to low income persons from a local farm, Sherman Farm.

The Veggie Volunteer Program (VVP) was developed after a visit to the Sherman Farm in East Conway in the fall of 2002. The Shermans operate a year-round farm stand, harvesting fresh vegetables from their 50 acres. There is always some produce that is extra or possibly a bit beyond prime that would go to waste unless otherwise picked. The Shermans agreed to donate this surplus nutritious fresh produce to food pantries, senior centers and other organizations that serve low income audience, if a collection and distribution service was developed.

The Cooperative Extension was able to develop a collection and distribution service coordinated by the Carroll County master gardeners. Extension master gardeners are trained volunteers who extend the outreach capabilities of UNH Cooperative Extension. Master gardeners help by serving as volunteer educators in their communities and coordinating and participating in programs such as the VVP. The Master Gardeners organize volunteers, serve as liaison between farm and volunteers, organize picking crews and the distribution process of the Veggie Volunteer Program.

The Veggie Volunteer Program has been a huge success over the last 10 years and is continuing strongly. Participation by loyal volunteers has been crucial in the program’s success; volunteers include everybody from youth groups to individuals. The experience is rewarding because volunteers get to serve their community, learn about agriculture with a hands-on approach, meet new people and have fun outdoors.

The produce collected each day is recorded and approximate retail value is calculated. The food is

August author series Effingham considers dropping ambulance continues at White Birch Books Aug. 16 Effingham Town Column

Henry Spencer 539-4964

Selectmen’s news: Turn out at last week’s ice cream social and Effingham fire and rescue event was somewhat low. The primary topic was an attempt to increase the number of people willing to volunteer for Effingham Fire and Rescue, particularly the rescue aspect. All of which devolves to a consideration as to whether or not keeping our current ambulance makes sense; or, if there might be a better way for the Effingham Fire and Rescue department to increase public safety. Here is the key message you reporter took away from the meeting: Is the ambulance a wise use of town funds considering how difficult it is for a small town to staff a rescue service under today’s licensing requirements?

As revealed at the meeting the town owns one remarkable ambulance but is unable to maintain volunteers with the education, experience and accreditation to utilize its capabilities. Further, at last year’s town meeting the people voted to limit the use of the vehicle to in town runs, not to transport patients to the hospital, in a sense to limit the usage of the ambulance to that of a first responder vehicle. These two facts have lead Effingham Fire and Rescue Chief randy Burbank to give serious consideration to divesting ourselves of this vehicle; a conclusion not easily reached but one worth considering.

lance Service revealed that Effingham is no different than any other small town and some much larger towns in finding it hard to staff a rescue service. For any level above first responder, the time one needs to devote to education basic enough to pass the tests required to become licensed and the time devoted to continuing education to keep the license is extensive and costly. In Effingham’s particular case this means that we have been unable to either maintain the personnel or have in training staff preparing to legally use our ambulance. According to Mr. Jones, who gives classes for those interested in becoming first responders, it is harder and harder to find those able to commit the time needed for licensing for even this most basic level of rescue service.

This issue may not be complex, but then it is. On the pragmatic side it seems a simple decision; get rid of a vehicle we are no longer able to use for its intended use, and on the personal side; what happens if I am having a heart attack and need rescue help? The underlying concern for our chief is public safety and how we can best spend our tax dollars to insure timely medical response. No decisions have been reached and there is currently an effort to get more people to sign up for first responder courses.

CONWAY — The August author series continues at White Birch Books located in North Conway Village just south of the park, across from TD Bank with a visit from New York Time-bestselling author Brunonia Barry on Tuesday, Aug. 16, at 7 p.m. Barry will be talking about her most recent novel, "The Map of True Places."

Psychotherapist Zee Finch is dealt a blow when one of her patients, a troubled bipolar housewife named Lilly, leaps off a bridge to her death. The tragedy brings up memories of Zee’s own mother’s suicide, prompting her to go see her father, Finch, in Salem. She is startled to find Finch’s Parkinson’s disease is much more advanced than she’d been led to believe, and that he has kicked his partner, Melville, out of the house. Zee decides to take a leave of absence from her practice to care for Finch, a move that puts a strain on her engagement to Michael, one of her mentor’s closest friends.

As her relationship with Michael comes to an end, Zee tries to puzzle out what caused Finch to abruptly break up with his beloved Melville. She also tries to make sense of Lilly’s death, unaware that the dangerous man Lilly was involved with now wants to exact revenge on her. Like her hit debut, "The Lace Reader," Barry’s second novel features an involving, intricately woven story and vivid descriptions of historic Salem.

Barry shot to prominence with the publication of her first novel, "The Lace Reader." Born and raised in Massachusetts, Barry studied literature and creative writing at Green Mountain College in Vermont and at the University of New Hampshire and was one of the founding members of the Portland Stage Company. Barry’s love for writing and storytelling has taken her all across the country but after nearly a decade in Hollywood, Barry returned to Massachusetts where, along with her husband, she co-founded an innovative company that creates award-winning word, visual and logic puzzles. Barry lives with her husband and her Golden Retriever named Byzantium.

For more information about the event, or to reserve a copy of "The Map of True Places" or "The Lace Reader," call White Birch Books at 356-3200 or visit www.whitebirchbooks.com.

The technicians and research fellows who worked with her on Project Pain have gone on to distinguished careers as academic physicians and hold leadership positions in Pain Management in the United States, Europe and South America.

Patricia began her involvement with the outdoors as a summer camp counselor early in the 1950s and made friendships that would last her lifetime. Patricia met her future husband Charles through the Appalachian Mountain Club, of which she was a lifelong member.

A lifelong hiker, birdwatcher and skier, Dr. Osgood enjoyed the outdoors through the end of her life.

Patricia was an inveterate walker and hiked extensively throughout the White Mountains, as well as in the Adirondacks, the Great Smokey Mountains and the Lake District in England. Patricia was a long-time member of the Jackson Ski Touring Foundation.

In her later years, Dr. Osgood enjoyed reading, attending Bach Festival concerts and Shakespeare Festival performances, and spending time with her granddaughter Charlotte. All who knew her were struck by Patricia’s gentle and unassuming disposition.

Dr. Osgood was predeceased by her husband of 57 years Charles this past Dec. 31.

Dr. Osgood is survived by a son, Charles E. Osgood, and wife, Julie M. Mitchell, of Wenatchee, Wash.; a son, A.

Birthdays

CONWAY — Dr. Patricia F. Osgood, 82, died May 7, 2011 at her home in Kearsarge. Born in Quincy, Mass on May 24, 1928, the daughter of Pansy Webb Fisher and Russell Fisher, she grew up on the South Shore of Massachusetts.

Dr. Osgood graduated from Thayer Academy in Braintree, Mass. in 1946.

She received a bachelor of arts in chemistry from the University of North Carolina at Greensboro in 1950. Resuming her studies in the 1960’s, she received a degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Medical Sciences (Pharmacology) from the Graduate School of Boston University in 1971.

Her thesis was titled “Development & Evaluation of Indices of the Cardiovascular Effects of Catecholamines”.

She began her research career as a technician in the laboratories of the Department of Anesthesia at Massachusetts General Hospital. In the 1970’she joined Sheehan Institute Sharps Associates (SISA), a small research firm in Cambridge, Mass., where she worked as a research pharmacologist for the better part of a decade.

Starting in 1980, Dr. Osgood was co-director of “Project Pain”, an innovative research program into the mechanisms of pain after burn injury which successfully led to clinical studies to improve treatment of pediatric burn patients at Boston Shriner’s Hospital for Burned Children.

Her former colleagues have noted that her caring nature was obvious to both patients and their families. Her frequent presence in the intensive care units and on the burn wards was very unusual, as many researchers prefer to avoid these often emotionally draining settings. At the time of her retirement in 1992, Patricia held a unique triappointment as Assistant Professor of Anesthesia (Pharmacology) at the Massachusetts General Hospital, Harvard Medical School, and Shriners Burns Institute.

Dr. Osgood published numerous scientific papers on drug effectiveness through the forty plus years of her career. She did groundbreaking research on burn pain in children and spoke at many conferences both in the United States and around the world. Her work with Project Pain included design of a large pain scale “Thermometer” for children to enable them to grade their pain. This evolved into

Logging industry is focus of Ossipee Historical Society Program Aug. 16 OSSIPEE — An interactive program on lumbering will be presented by Dick Fortin at 7 p.m. Tuesday, Aug. 16, in the historic Carroll County Court House of Ossipee Village. Fortin will outline the history of logging in New Hampshire’s White Mountains before audience members guess the use of tools from his extensive collection of those available during the late 1800s into the early 1900s. A slideshow of black-and-white photos from the period will follow.

New Hampshire’s logging industry began in the 1630s when pines were shipped to England for masts on the king’s naval ships. A major business by 1890, there were at that time 832 sawmills and 17 logging railroads, according to the U.S. Forest Service website.

In “White Mountain History” Bill Gove explains that logging railroads were meant to be temporary installations crisscrossing the state and connecting with mainlines — built to access valleys in the White Mountains, where streams were too small to carry logs effectively and the distance too great for oxen to haul.

Careless harvesting methods at that time led to regular outbreaks of fires that devastated the North Country. Senator

New Hampshire’s logging industry began in the 1630s when pines were shipped to England for masts on the king’s naval ships. A major business by 1890, there were at that time 832 sawmills and 17 logging railroads.

Silas Weeks of New Hampshire was one of the leaders who established the U.S. National Forest Service, and through the Weeks Act, brought 7,000 acres in the Granite State under public domain in 1914. According to Forest Service, almost 800,000 acres comprise the White Mountain National Forest in New Hampshire and western Maine today. From selecting trees to be cut to separating those trees into a variety of products, woodland management can maintain New Hampshire’s forests as a renewable resource.

A resident of Snowville, Dick Fortin came to the area nearly 40 years ago to work for the U.S. Forest Service. With a degree in forestry, he has worked as a forester, environmental educator and lecturer. Owner of a portable sawmill, he does small-scale log-

ging with a tractor.

Fortin became involved in alpine stewardship in 1991 when, in cooperation with the White Mountain National Forest, the Sandwich Range Conservation Association hired him as New Hampshire’s first summit steward on Welch Mountain.

In a 2002 article for “Watershed News,” Fortin promoted a forestry cooperative in the Mount Washington Valley, encouraging public and private landowners to practice sustainable forestry at a time when the Society of the Protection of New Hampshire Forests reported 13,000 acres of New Hampshire forest were disappearing annually to “forest conversions.”

Fortin received the 2007 Guy Waterman Alpine Steward Award for this “long-term commitment to protecting the physical and spiritual qualities of the Northeast’s mountain wilderness.” His innovative approaches to caring for the heavily-hiked but fragile mountain soils and plant communities of the Welch and Dickey peaks were lauded, as was his watchful eye over alpine plants in the northern Presidentials.

The Ossipee Historical Society welcomes the public to hear Dick Fortin on Aug. 16, and will serve light refreshment. Admission is not charged, although donations are appreciated.

Francis E. (Frank) Warren

Francis E. (Frank) Warren, 50, of Brownfield, Maine, passed away peacefully at home August 9, 2011, with his family and two dogs by his side.

He was born in Cambridge, Mass., on April 17, 1961, to Herman and Peggy Warren.

Frank grew up in Cambridge, Mass., and attended schools there. His favorite pastime was his music and playing drums. He loved spending time with his family and dogs, and especially with his grandchildren Brooklyn (Sweet Pea) and Michael.

He was predeceased by his parents Herman and Peggy Warren, brothers Patrick, George and Walter, sister-in-law Kimberly Warren (Pitman) and a niece, Tiffany Hamilton Warren. Survived by his lifetime friend and fiance Roseann Hinds, stepchildren Stephanie and Danny Bokuniewicz and Kori Hinds, all of Brownfield, Maine; four grandchildren Brooklyn Peters, his “Sweet Pea,” of Brownfield, Maine; Michael Miller, Destiny Bokuniewicz and their mom, Morgan Miller of Casco, Maine; and Leah Loring of Baldwin, Maine; brothers Michael Warren of Fryeburg and David Warren of Albany; a sister, Patty Ivery, of Ohio; his estranged son, Keith Warren, of Massachusetts; three sisters-in-law, Jane Warren of Brownfield, Becky Warren of Conway and Debbie Warren of Berlin; and many nieces and nephews.

A memorial service and a celebration of his life will be held Aug. 17, 2011 at Watson, Neal and York Funeral Home, 71 Maple Street Cornish, Maine.

For those who wish, donations may be made in Frank’s memory and in honor of Brooklyn Peters, to the Maine Children’s Cancer Program, 100 Campus Drive, Scarborough, Maine, 04074.

HOME OF THE WEEK

REAL ESTATE CORNER

The good news continues — sort of

BY KARL SEIBEL

Every week I receive dozens of articles by e-mail updating me and others on the real estate market and the country’s economy as it pertains to real estate. My sources are varied from Realtor sources like the National Association of Realtors, N.H. Association of Realtors, banks, mortgage companies and many others. Quite often the stories are the same, just written a different way. Sometimes they give credit to the original author and sometimes they don’t. This week, I received a timely report from Pat and John Jones of Mortgage Master Inc. in Conway, an affiliate member of the White Mountain Board of Realtors, and I wanted to share it with the readers of The Conway Daily Sun. Thanks, Pat and John.

Over the past couple weeks we've featured good news on home prices. This week, the good news continues — sort of. Clear Capital reports that home prices improved by 4.1 percent nationally in the second quarter of 2011 compared to the same year-ago quarter. On the flip-side, Clear Capital also says it expects home prices to decline 2.4 percent in the second half of 2011. It is important to remember that all real estate is local We're not quite ready to put any money on Clear Capital's price prediction, because its own data show that all four U.S. regions posted quarterly gains, led by a 6.3 percent gain in the Midwest – the first widespread, non-tax-creditinduced gain in five years.

Reduced inventory levels have helped support prices in recent months. We've noted in past editions that inventory levels have been falling, thanks in large part to a dearth of new-home construction and fewer homes listed for sale.

Normally, shrinking inventory is a positive, because it means demand is rising, which leads to higher home prices. Of course, times aren't normal. In today's environment, an inventory decline also reflects the slow pace at which banks are processing foreclosures, thus pushing the number of newly initiated foreclosures to a three-year low. Concurrently, the backlog of homes in foreclosure has been pushed up to 2.1 million.

The principal concern is that if these homes hit the market in a flood, the price trend could reverse course. Then again, if they hit in a trickle, the uptrend could continue unabated. At this point, we think a trickle is more likely than a flood.

Mortgage rates are a more difficult call. After slightly rising the past few weeks, rates tumbled over the past few days, and are the lowest they've been in eight months. There are a number of contributing factors to the mortgage-rate drop: U.S. Treasury securities are again viewed as the ultimate haven. The yield on the 10-year Treasury note has fallen 100 basis points over the past six months and now yields a mere 2.5 percent. (The 30-year fixed rate mortgage tends to be two percentage points higher than the 10-year note.)

The fact is that risk of default was never a concern for U.S. debt investors, or yields would have been rising instead of falling. Investors are more concerned with a slowing economy, and with good reason: Gross domestic product grew only 1.3 percent in the second quarter. This puts see CORNER page 50

Ski house makes winter fun Today’s Home of the Week is a single-unit townhouse just 150 feet from the Cathedral Trail on Attitash.

BARTLETT — Picture this: It’s Saturday morning. The family arrived last night and the kids are anxious to get skiing.

Do you have to get everyone dressed, fed, the car packed, lunches made and out the door for the drive to the mountain before you even have time for a cup of coffee? Have you faced this routine every weekend for a few years? If so, you may be thinking “If only we had a ski house right on the mountain…”

Well, this week’s House of the Week fulfills that dream! 18 Cathedral Trail is a single-unit townhouse that offers the privacy of a home with the shared maintenance of a Planned Unit Development. Located right on the mountain at Attitash, it is 150 feet from the Cathedral Trail. In the morning, while you sleep in, or have that leisurely latte, everyone else can take their skis, walk out the door and be on the trail in two minutes.

When they’re hungry, they can ski down to the house, leaving skis on a rack at the side of the trail, and skip home for soup and a sandwich. There’s even time to walk the dog!

Rustic, modern and filled with glorious light from lots of windows and skylights, this home see HOME page 49

The home has 1,823 square feet of space, and two gas fireplaces.

The dining area is sunny by day, looking out to the deck and mountain view.

Borrowing in retirement

BY VICKIE ELMER NEW YORK TIMES

Households headed by people 65 and older make up the largest segment of the population of homeowners in this country, and many of them will continue to make home purchases in or near retirement — in many cases, trading in a larger suburban house for a smaller apartment or town house in a more urban area.

While the majority of older homeowners will pay with cash and therefore will not need a mortgage, some may require financing — perhaps

the annual growth rate far below the Federal Reserve's expectation for 2.7to-2.9 percent GDP growth this year.

The prospect of a slowing economy, in turn, has pulled a lot of money out of stocks and directed it toward bonds.

Stocks have been on their longest losing streak since the financial crisis of 2008; the S&P 500 has lost over 1,000 points over the past 10 trading days.

Fortunately, the economy hasn't ground to a halt. ADP's latest employment report shows that private-sector payrolls grew by 114,000 jobs in July.

It's not great, and more job growth is needed to sustain a recovery, but it does show that parts of the economy continue to thrive and grow. That said, the 30-year fixed-rate mortgage is unlikely to clear 5 percent in the near future.

Another Contrarian Indicator We like to keep our eyes open for novel indicators that a market might have reached a saturation point and is ready to turn. We think the Wall Street Journal has provided us with one: Reality television shows are jumping

because their previous home declined in value, or because they wanted to keep a portion of the money from the sale in income-generating investments.

About a third of the 65-and-older households that owned a home in 2009 had a mortgage, according to the Census Bureau’s American Housing Survey, which also put homeownership in this age group close to 81 percent during the second quarter of this year. By contrast, around 64 percent of people 35 to 44 were homeowners, see RETIREMENT page 52

into the foreclosure-deal market, the Wall Street Journal reports.

If you think back five years, shows featuring buying and flipping homes were all the rage. Their peak popularity coincided with a peak in the housing market. (As an aside, anyone interested in collectibles should note the surfeit of shows — pawn shops, pickers, storage-unit hunters, and antique auctions — that are the rage today.)

We view the rising popularity of foreclosure shows positively: For one, it raises interest (and prices) on foreclosed homes, which will help clear the market sooner. More important, these shows suggest a market saturation point, and a possible turning point toward fewer foreclosures and higher-priced foreclosures.

Of course, this “reality-show” indicator is far from scientific, but then again, the past frequently is prologue, and these shows have frequently pointed to market tops and bottoms.

and only 38 percent of those younger than 35 owned homes, the latest census data found.

Lenders say the mortgage process is the same at any age. If you qualify based on income and credit scores, a lender cannot deny you a loan based on age.

That would violate the federal Equal Credit Opportunity Act, which prohibits discrimination based on age, race, gender and other criteria.

“We just had someone who came in at 85 and got a loan — a 30-year loan,” said David Boone, a first vice president of Provident Bank in Jersey City, N. J. He said the man borrowed under $100,000 and chose a 30-year term to keep the payments low.

Older borrowers should begin the loan process by gathering documentation, Boone said. If you’re retired, you will need to provide a pension award letter or Social Security award letter, along with income tax returns and statements from other retirement accounts like an Individual Retirement Account or a 401(k) plan. If you’re still working, pay stubs and other documentation from your employer will be needed.

Even if you’re on the verge of retirement, lenders generally will consider only current earnings. But Erika Safran, a financial planner in Manhattan, suggests factoring in retirement income anyway, to help determine whether you will still be able to afford the home down the road.

Borrowers will want to look at their available cash flow now and 5 to 10 years ahead. Safran cautions against taking too much out of savings for the down payment if the projected cash flow for various expenses is low. Instead, she said, older borrowers should seek a larger mortgage amount, preserve the remaining funds so that they can be invested.

“We just had someone who came in at 85 and got a loan — a 30-year loan,” said David Boone, a first vice president of Provident Bank in Jersey City, N.J. He said the man borrowed under $100,000 and chose a 30-year term to keep the payments low.

Credit history is important. Besides looking at credit scores, Boone said, most lenders will want to see at least three credit sources, like utility bills.

And lenders will expect to see a debt-to-income ratio of no more than 40 or 45 percent, said Gary DeTrano, a mortgage broker at Walden Group in Mineola, N.Y. (The ratio measures the amount of gross monthly income that goes to paying off all debts.)

You will need to decide on the length of the mortgage. Consider how long you’re going to live in the home, and whether you want to build up equity, perhaps for your partner or your estate.

“You accumulate equity much more quickly with a 15-year term than a 30-year term,” said Andra Ghent, an assistant professor of real estate at Baruch College.

Many retirees may be drawing down their assets and don’t need to build equity in their home, so they may prefer a 30-year term.

Estimating how long you expect to live there will help determine whether to pay points — each point is 1 percent of the loan amount — to lower the interest rate. Buying down your rate makes more sense, Ghent said, when you plan to own the house for many years.

In today's buyer's market, particularly with so many foreclosure properties and fixer-uppers on the resale block, shoppers are seeking assurance that the homes they have their eyes on aren't going to fall apart shortly after closing.

"Buyers are shying away from fixer-uppers at the fastest pace I've ever seen," says Lisa Johnson Sevajian with Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage in Andover, Mass. "Over the past few years, the trend was moving toward buying distressed properties for the steep discounts, and people were more accepting of issues like an older heating system or worn appliances. [But] now buyer upon buyer is saying, 'I'm not interested in paying a penny more than the sales price to move into my new home.' So if you're trying to sell a home and have any systems that aren't state of the

A look at what draws buyers to the areas where they buy

Home is where the heart is — and it also ideally is near a bunch of fun stuff, according to a recent survey from Better Homes and Gardens Real Estate.

The survey respondents — 84 percent of the 1,085 respondents currently own a home; 10 percent plan to purchase within three years — said they would place more weight on lifestyle criteria in future home searches, favoring family-friendly neighborhoods and easy accessibility to cultural activities like museums and music venues.

One in five homeowners has either moved or would like to because their neighborhood or community wasn't ideal for their lifestyle, the survey notes.

Following are the top lifestyle priorities of respondents when searching for their next home: * Ease of commuting by car, cited by

art and brand new, it's smart to buy a home warranty."

Home warranty insurance isn't like a homeowner's hazard policy, which covers a residence in the event of fire, theft, accident or storm damage. This kind protects against problems with your home's mechanical systems and major appliances. Standard plans typically provide repair and/or replacement coverage on plumbing, heating and electrical systems, and appliances like the oven/range, water heater, dishwasher and garbage disposal, and possibly specialty items like a built-in whirlpool bathtub and central vacuum system.

Whole-house systems or a la carte plans allow the seller to customize coverage and protect systems of their choosing. Optional coverage, also usually available for an additional fee, can safeguard items like swimming pool and/or spa equipment, roofs and wells.

The survey also was the basis of a new "Lifestyle Search" tool on bhgrealestate.com, which enables prospective home buyers to filter community searches by important lifestyle preferences, such as "family and community" and "arts and recreation."

© CTW Features According the National Home Service Contract Association, the average price for a basic home warranty plan ranges from $350 to $500 annually; coverage and pricing will vary by state and provider.

A home warranty policy can be a smart add-on for sellers because it adds a competitive advantage and provides added-value incentives to home buyers.

Moreover, such coverage offers peace of mind to both parties. After the seller has moved out, the warranty takes care of covered service problems, providing extra after-sale liability protection.

"Home warranty insurance has become more valuable in the minds of buyers," says Bruce Hahn, president of American Homeowners Grassroots Alliance and the American Homeowners Foundation. "Its market acceptance has created the impression among many buyers that homes with home warranty

insurance are insured against most potential problems and that problems in homes with this insurance are probably less likely."

While that perception is important, the reality is that the coverage will come in handy for policyholders, according to Larry Davidson, CEO of First American Home Buyers Protection Corp., a home warranty provider in Santa Ana, Calif.

"As many as two-thirds of our customers will file a claim in the first year of their coverage.

In fact, nearly two claims are filed annually for every contract in force," Davidson says.

"Most home warranty companies offer a oneyear service contract for buyers of previously owned homes," adds Cameron Foster, a Nashville-area rep for Old Republic Home Protection. "Coverage begins at the close of sale and continues for one year after closing."

Sellers should research home warranty providers carefully. The company should allow the policyholder to make a claim quickly by phone or Internet, be backed by a healthy network of contractors, demonstrate good financial strength and have adequate cash reserves to cover claims costs.

The financial implications of owning

BY MARILYN KENNEDY MELIA CTW FEATURES

It's never been easy.

Buying a home is a big purchase. It's comforting to have assurance that your expenditure will prove a good investment.

Lately, buyers are likely to find doubt, not reassurance.

Hearing the dire news about foreclosed or "underwater" owners, buyers today "are worried about making the same mistakes and are more cautious in their approach to purchasing," observes Delton Cheng, broker-owner of Century 21 Homefront in Brooklyn, N.Y. Sure, a guarantee that buying a home is a sound investment would be comfort. But the issue is nuanced, not simple, explains Todd Sinai, a real estate professor at the University of Pennsylvania's Wharton School, who recently co-authored a paper examining how homebuying impacts owners financially.

Here, what experts advise to consider to get a balanced view of the financial aspects of homeowning: Don’t Think Investment Stocks and bonds are investments, explains Sinai. A home is a need, just like food and clothing.

Middle-class Americans have historically gained most of their wealth from the value of a home, but it's really best not to think of a home as a moneymaker, counsels Sinai.

As the housing bubble inflated, "people thought that if they bought something more expensive, it would then be worth even more and they'd make more," Sinai adds.

Not true. Buy something affordable. A home with expenses that still allow for retirement and other savings is necessary because you'll then diversify your wealth, not depending solely on housing values. Moreover, with affordable expenses, you'll be better to able to make payments during unforeseen financial stress, Sinai explains.

Commit To Reducing Mortgage "The primary financial benefit of buying," observes Steve Weydert, an Irvine, Calif., financial planner, doesn't happen right away.

Rather, it occurs after years of paying the mortgage and you "own a piece of real estate free and clear," he adds.

Big rises in home prices aren't as crucial to building housing wealth as is gradually chipping away at the mortgage balance with each monthly payment. Like the old-fashioned Christmas Club accounts, the regular savings from paying a monthly mortgage is rather painless — assuming your home is affordable to you — but eventually you end up owning the home outright.

Factor Time Into The Equation You need a place to live, and can either rent or buy.

"You know what the rental cost is initially," Sinai explains, "but rent [charges] are uncertain over a long period."

Cost of ownership also is uncertain over time, since property taxes and maintenance expenses fluctuate, But the biggest financial uncertainty of ownership is what you'll eventually sell your home for, Sinai says.

Looking at long-term averages of rental and housing costs, however, "if you're staying in a home for at least five years, it's hard for renting to compete."
