CONCORD — A reduction in state highway funds may mean motorists will be traveling on snowier roads this winter. New Hampshire Department of Transportation (DOT) is proposing no longer
plowing some roads between 9 p.m. and 4 a.m. as well as allowing snow to build up to between 5 and 7 inches before turning some crews out onto the road. The DOT plan is not acceptable, according to Rep. Gene Chandler, R-Bartlett, who also serves as the chair of the transportation department in the New House of Represen-
tatives. He hopes DOT officials will come up with a new plan because the current one could have "huge ramifications" on tourism and revenue for the Granite State. “We’re not going to be able to provide the same level of service,” Bill Boynton, see PLOWING page 9

Dog helps rape victim testify POUGHKEEPSIE, N.Y. (NY Times) — Rosie, the first judicially approved courtroom dog in New York, was in the witness box here nuzzling a 15-year-old girl who was testifying that her father had raped and impregnated her. Rosie sat by the teenager’s feet. At particularly bad moments, she leaned in. When the trial ended in June with the father’s conviction, the teenager “was most grateful to Rosie above all,” said David A. Crenshaw, a psychologist who works with the teenager. “She just kept hugging Rosie.” Now an appeal planned by the defense lawyers is placing Rosie at the heart of a legal debate that will test whether there will be more Rosies in courtrooms in New York and, possibly, other states. Rosie is a golden retriever therapy dog who specializes in comforting people when they are under stress. Both prosecutors and defense lawyers have described her as adorable, though she has been known to slobber. Prosecutors here noted that she is also in the vanguard of a growing trial trend: in Arizona, Hawaii, Indiana, Idaho and some other states in the last few years, courts have allowed such trained dogs to offer children and other vulnerable witnesses nuzzling solace in front of juries.

Rioting widens in London on third night of unrest
––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– WORLD/NATION–––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––
LONDON (NY Times) — The rioting and looting that convulsed poorer parts of London over the weekend spread to to at least three other districts on Monday, including the partly gentrified eastern neighborhood of Hackney, where groups of hooded youths confronted squads of riot police officers on the main street, smashing store windows and attacking police cars and double-decker buses. Trouble also broke out in the Lewisham and Peckham areas of south London. The new outbreaks came as the police vastly increased the number of riot-control officers
deployed in London and announced they had made more than 200 arrests since Saturday. With many British leaders abroad on vacation, including Prime Minister David Cameron, Home Secretary Theresa May cut short her own holiday and flew home Monday to help manage an end to the mayhem, which recalled earlier spasms of violence rooted in deep social problems, including racial tensions between the police and London’s Afro-Caribbean population. “There is no excuse for violence, there is no excuse for looting, there is no excuse for thuggery,” May said.
Wall Street Plummets over 6 percent NEW YORK — (NY Times) — Wall Street stocks plummeted on Monday as skittish investors, already concerned about the economy, struggled to work out the implications of an unprecedented downgrade of the United States government’s credit rating, and sought safer places to put their money. The declines, coming in the
first opportunity for investors to sell since Standard & Poor’s cut its rating on the nation’s long-term debt late Friday, followed losses in global markets and set United States equities on track to extend losses that for some recalled the days of the 2008 financial crisis. They also reflected anxiety over the United States economy and Europe’s debt woes.
At the close of trading, the Standard & Poor’s 500-stock index was off more than 6 percent, coming after a 7 percent loss over the course of last week. The Dow Jones industrial average showed a oneday decline of more than 600 points, its steepest point loss in a single day since December 2008. The Nasdaq dropped nearly 7 percent.

Three Arab countries recall ambassadors to Syrian capital
BEIRUT, Lebanon (NY Times) — Joining a chorus of global condemnation, three oil-rich Arab countries on Monday recalled their ambassadors to the Syrian capital Damascus in protest of President Bashar al-Assad’s brutal crackdown on demonstrations, as the Syrian military and security forces pressed ahead with their assault on the most restive locales. The decision by Saudi Arabia, Bahrain and Kuwait came as Mr. Assad replaced the defense minister with the army’s chief of staff, the Syrian state-run news agency said. There was no immediate explanation for the move to oust the incumbent defense minister, Lt. Gen. Ali Habib, a key figure in the leadership who had served as defense minister since June 2009. His departure would constitute one of the highest-level shakeups since the uprising began in mid-March. His replacement was General Dawoud Rajha.

UNH professor: Impact of U.S. credit downgrading will be fleeting BY DAYMOND STEER THE CONWAY DAILY SUN
DURHAM — Stock-market drops from the downgrading of United State's credit rating will be fleeting but will make for political fodder throughout the presidential election, says University of New Hampshire economics professor Michael Goldberg. On Friday, the ratings agency Standard & Poor downgraded U.S. treasury debt from the top rating of AAA to AA+ — the next highest rating. The other two major credit rating agencies, Moody's and Fitch, both kept America's credit rating at AAA. A major credit rating agency has never downgraded the U.S. However, Egan-Jones downgraded the U.S. to AA+ back in July. According to CNN, hours after opening on Monday all three American stock indexes were down 3 and 4 percent. But Goldberg predicts that won't last. His expertise is in macroeconomics, financial markets and monetary policy. "It's a reaction, today," said Goldberg. "It's one piece in a broader picture that shows the U.S. economy is slowing down.” The downgrade will influence the jobs market because it will be a factor when businesses decide whether to increase their productive capacity. It would also mean lower stock prices. When debt is downgraded, investors usually want higher interest rates to make up for increased risk — which in a sense creates a self-fulfilling prophecy because the agency issuing the debt will have more cost to contend with, said Goldberg. However, that's not happening in this case. Interest rates on 10-year treasury bonds have actually gone down since Friday when they were at 2.54 percent. As of Monday, interest rates on 10-year trea-

sury bonds were 2.39 percent. The Republicans, says Goldberg, will turn the downgrade into a political talking point that says President Barack Obama's policies led to the lower credit rating. However, say Goldberg, Obama has nothing to do with the cause of the recession. “That's the craziness of the public debate,” said Goldberg who later added the recent debt ceiling deal didn't address the issue of jobs. The last recession actually started in late 2007 and Obama took office in January of 2009.The downturn began because American households went too far into debt thinking their homes would serve as equity. Then housing prices crashed and Americans cut back on spending. Meanwhile, government revenue shrunk but spending, on things like two wars, soared. On top of that, there was a crisis when investment bank Lehman Brothers filed for bankruptcy in the fall of 2008. But Maynard Thomson, chair of Carroll County Republicans, says the president does have responsibility for the downgrade. "Obama's opening demand was for a 'clean debt ceiling increase,' meaning one not conditioned on any spending cuts," said Thomson. "Given S&P's statements about the reasons for the downgrade — the unsustainability of our debt path — how do you think they would have reacted had Obama had his way?" Further, Thomson said the Republicans had a plan to get spending under control but the Democrats rejected it. Despite all the negative headlines, the U.S. economy is actually in reasonable shape, says Goldberg. America's debt to Gross Domestic Product is actually small compared to other industrialized countries. The ratio of publicly-owned debt to GDP is 70 percent or less. The U.S. has a $14 trillion

economy and debt of $10 trillion. Germany has a debt to GDP ratio of 90 percent, Japan has a debt to GDP ratio of 200 percent, and Greece has a debt to GDP ratio of 140 percent. But Thomson cited news wire reports that said the debt to GDP ratio shot up to 100 percent after the debt ceiling was lifted. Another good thing about American economy is it's still a leader in the high value services sector. That sector includes software design and financial consulting, said Goldberg. For instance, says Goldberg, only about 5 percent of a computer's worth comes from physical production. About 95 percent of a computer's worth comes from design. Goldberg and Thomson agree that America's spending path isn't sustainable. Policymakers will have to pay particular attention to health care because the costs are projected to triple in 30 to 40 years. Although the political debate has centered around cutting spending or raising taxes, America has to ask itself a deeper question, says Goldberg. “What do we want the federal government to do?”asks Goldberg. Thomson agrees that entitlements like Medicare and Medicaid need to be reformed. U.S. Sen. Kelly Ayotte issued a statement about the downgrade. She's a member of the Senate banking com-
mittee. "This is a blow to the United States, and it is a grim signal that we cannot continue to delay addressing our crippling debt," said Ayotte. "One of the reasons I opposed the recent deal to raise the debt ceiling was because it still left us vulnerable to the threat of a downgrade. The president and Congress must end business as usual in Washington and finally confront our debt crisis in a meaningful way with real cuts, serious budget reforms and entitlement reform." Republican presidential candidates Ron Paul and Jon Huntsman released statements blaming the downgrade on "Washington" not just Obama. Congressman Frank Guinta, R-N.H., said in a statement: “Looking ahead, Congress has several opportunities to put our fiscal house in order. For example, we should pass a balanced budget amendment to make sure Washington finally lives within its means. Another important opportunity is passing a budget before the new fiscal years starts on Oct. 1. We need a budget that contains serious spending cuts. More than 830 days have passed since the Senate last passed a budget. Joining with the House to pass one before Sept. 30 would reassure nervous financial markets and cautious job creators that we’re serious about returning fiscal responsibility to Washington.”

S&P downgrade could have been avoided To the editor: President Obama and his advisors are so deeply mired in campaign mode that they are completely incapable of saying or doing anything about the failing economy and plunging stock market. Of course, from this perspective Obama has never left campaign mode, a fact, along with his destructive economic ideology, that has rendered him totally incompetent at governing. His chief advisor, David Axelrod had the unmitigated gall to get on TV this past weekend and say that the U.S. debt downgrade was a “Tea Party Downgrade.” Of course, anyone who pays attention and deals in facts knows that if the Tea Party movement had truly prevailed in the recent debt deal, the S&P downgrade would have been avoided. However, in the middle of their total economic failure and the beginning of their re-election campaign, the Democrats all marched out with the same inane talking points this past weekend blaming the Tea Party for their fiasco. The simple reason for the downgrade is unrestrained spending of money the government does not have and therefore needs to borrow. The higher the debt goes, the less confidence the markets have in the U.S. government’s ability to repay its obligations. Administration and Democratic officials along with many letter writers to this and other papers who say that what we need is more “revenues” or a “balanced approach” rather than reigning in reckless spend-
ing are either ignorant or blatantly dishonest. I suspect that in the case of the officials it is the latter and in the case of most letter writers, the former. When these people say “revenues” they mean higher taxes on the wealthy and businesses. The top five percent of earners in this country pay 58.7 percent of the federal taxes while the bottom half pay nothing. That top 5 percent earn only 35 percent of total income. So, why don’t you liberals out there tell us what you think their “fair share” is? The answer really is that their fair share is whatever the government decides it needs to support its endless spending addiction. The sad truth is that you could take 100 percent of these people’s incomes and it wouldn’t be a drop in the bucket of our national debt. The other sad truth is that every penny you take away from these small business owners, entrepreneurs and investors is a penny that will not go to expansion and investment in their businesses and hiring of new employees. The class warriors out there who keep making tax increases a trivial matter are once again either uninformed or disingenuous. Politics and class warfare aren’t going to solve our serious economic problems. What is needed is a new president and a Congress that have the knowledge and courage to get our government and its spending back under control. Mark Winters Hale’s Location

It’s too late not to eliminate more positions in Conway school system To the editor: Aug. 16 is fast approaching and those in charge of the school budget must continue to think outside the box. When the Pine Tree School was still in the planning stage, I wrote a letter to this paper and it was published, pleading not to build another small elementary school. I wanted one large elementary school built. I could not see vast sums being wasted on high administrative costs. Why have three principals and fund three office staffs? Why have to maintain and heat three separate buildings? Why have to cover the overhead of three separate cafeterias? The response from the community was· we want our own small school. Well, now you can’t pay for them. You are spending money on overhead instead of spending money to increase base teacher salaries, especially in the elementary schools. The cost of
education in this valley is crippling. It’s not that people can’t afford a home in the valley, it’s that they can’t afford the $400, $500 or $600 a month in real estate taxes. The method of threatening to eliminate popular programs and nit picking other expenses in an effort to lower the school budget is ludicrous. You have to get serious and find ways to consolidate facilities for real savings. You need people on the school and budget committees with a corporate, not a bureaucratic mindset. You must cut administration costs. As businesses have found out, you can eliminate 20 percent of administrators and everything will function as well as it does now. Bureaucrats love to build their bureaucracy and our Superintendent is no exception, he insists it’s too late to eliminate more positions. I say it’s too late not to. Carol L. Mayhofer Eaton

Tele-Talk What can be done to address the drug problem in Mount Washington Valley? There were 42 responses to this week’s Tele-Talk question: “What can be done to address the drug problem in Mount Washington Valley?” Seven people said they didn’t know what could be done or that nothing can be done. Four people suggested more people need to be locked up, and another 11 people suggested more enforcement, either more police, better use of police we have, stiffer penalties or fewer suspended sentences; but three people suggested that concerns about a drug problem in the valley are surfacing now because police are trying to drum up public support for increasing the size of Conway Police Department. Four people suggested legalizing or decriminalizing drug use. Five suggested more education; three suggested more help for drug addiction. There were also a handful of specificc suggestions, including: more tracking canines, drug testing, traffic stops, police tip lines, and more work looking for the sources of drugs coming into the valley and stopping it at the source. Another individual suggested that having other options for people to go out and have fun would help. The question being what can be done to address the drug problem in the Mount Washington Valley? I don’t know what more can be done. The police do all they can. The more people move into this area the more we have all kinds of problems. But our own children here in town, I don’t know. Some of them are just so gullible and easily swayed. This is J.J. from Conway. There’s nothing you can do because the officials with the court will let them out anyway on good behavior. What they should do is keep them in jail for a long time and have them pay for their own food while they’re there. We don’t have a drug problem, we have a people problem. Who are you to tell me what makes me feel better. Who are you to create problems and saturate the country with idiots and conveniently have a solution that profits your business interests. I’ve never seen anything like the local alcohol-DWI program that intentionally re-victimizes people in an effort to promote the mental health industry. It’s cannibalistic. Is this what this is? A business proposition? Punish the criminals harshly, one and done, never to be seen or heard from again, and watch a more peaceful and respectful society emerge. Self-medication is life itself; life hurts. So if chocolates, soda, salt, sugar, sex, music, pot, pills or alcohol get you peacefully through your day, it’s nobody’s business but your own. If you can’t handle your alcohol, don’t drink. Simple as that. Behave yourself and don’t hurt anyone or be gone. It’s the same old story: The police bring them in and the lawyers and the judges let them out the back door. Keep them locked up; I’d rather pay money for that than the space program. And another thing of all the words in the English language they could call drugs, why do you think they named
it dope. One, a lot of the big city people are moving up country and that’s bringing their problems with them. But I think the drug problem has been an issue longer than most of the naive people around town think it has been. There’s been drugs in this town for a long time. I don’t know what can be done about the problem except throwing more police at it, which we’ve all voted not to. People are against other officers, which the police department is understaffed as it is. So, really until we can staff the police department appropriately, maybe taking some of that tax dollar away from the school system and put it towards, maybe, drug prevention and crime prevention. I don’t think anything is going to be able to be done about it. With police action comes action. We don’t have enough cops to do what they need to do. They’re way overworked and I commend them for the job that they do. Scott in Kearsarge. I have to kind of chuckle because, whether it’s Chris Perley or Obama they always blame it on the cutting of the funds. It’s time for Chris Perley and some of these people to step up to the plate and do their job for once. And Obama. Chris Perley must have teeth marks in his tongue. He knows this has been a pervasive problem for many years, but for many years the drug of choice has been alcohol. Now the others are creeping in. And I don’t what really can be done. I have no answers, but I do know one thing: We can no longer ignore it. We can’t do the hear no evil, speak no evil thing with this. We have to do something. Send them back where they came from. To address the drug problem, send all the drug addicts to a massive, fenced drug farm in the middle of the United States, where they can have their drugs if they want them (monitored, of course, so they don’t overdose). However, they have to work to pay for their keep. They would work in the fields producing crops or in shops, making furniture, crafts, etc. that can be sold to pay for their stay. The farm would pay for itself and not be a burden to taxpayers. Deaths and murders in society would drop significantly. There would be less drugs on the street because there would be fewer addicts. It would also free up prison space. If an addict wanted off drugs, he would receive rehab treatment and be allowed to return to society. Instead of ineffective lectures, school children would take class trips for these farms and get a real warning of what the repercussions are for drug use. Addicts could stay as long as they want and can receive visitors and family. They must be abandoned farms or old vacant prisons that they can be restored and used again for this purpose. I feel that this would be the answer to this country’s drug problems, if only we had leaders who would take this bold step forward. Diane, Intervale. Put a big fence around the whole Mount Washington Valley and estab-
lish some gates there on Routes 302 and 16. And while you’re at it just put a big fence around Washington Street and just gate them all in too. It’s not the kids fault that there are drugs, it’s the parents, that are on drugs too. So, when you bust the kids, bust the parents too. This is T.J. Absolutely nothing can be done, particularly when you reference the book offered by Barry Obama, “The Audacity of Hope.” In a section there, he very cavalierly mesmerizes his followers in his adventures in narcotics and drugs. When we have the messiah indulging in such pastimes, how could we be critical of anybody else? This is Obama’s world. And when our leaders do it, how dare you condemn the other people? The best way to address this problem is if you were to legalize marijuana. Responsible adults over the age of 21 would be able to obtain these drugs and then they would be doing it legally within the system. Secondly, local law enforcement would be able to focus more on catching criminals instead of trying to catch people that are using drugs or marijuana. Thereby the prison systems wouldn’t be choked and full of people who have used drugs in the past, which is using our tax dollars needlessly, so we would benefit from that big time. Now if you put government regulation on this, which it would be, the government would get money back the same way it does on cigarettes and so forth. You can put government regulation on it, the government would be receiving plenty of money, thereby totally obliterating the budget deficit in America. You hear a lot of talk about the budget deficit? Here’s the way to cure the budget deficit problem. And lastly, you have to look at the situation. The role model for this, it worked really well in Amsterdam. The crime rate dropped dramatically over there because they didn’t have to enforce anything. There wasn’t that much crime happening because the whole criminal element and drug thing was taken away. I think it could work here in America. I think we should at least try it. It’s a win-win situation. The only real losers in this situation are the drug dealers and the organized crime syndicate. Yes, there is a drug problem in the valley, along with any other small town. But if you are not on the good side of the nurses when it comes to narcotics, you can say goodbye to your medicine. They give you an attitude. When did the nurses take over and not the doctors? I’d like to read a poem that I wrote: “I wish that I could just sit down and cry and you may ask why. It is because I live with pain that I hide, that I deny to myself and everybody else. People ask how do I do it, that is to live each and every day in pain. I say that I have no other choice, that I love life and I rejoice.” This town has no more of drug problem than any other town. I’m sick of the police department just being a bunch of spoiled little whiners and using scare tactics all the time because they didn’t get their way hiring the two new police people they wanted. What’s
with the police log in the paper three or four times a week now? Used to be just once a week. Is that also scare tactics now? Wow! What a question to ask this week from The Conway Dally Sun. Just in time, too, because I needed to “unload!” I call these so-called drug dealers, or should I say “want to be gangsters” punks! Get out of your parents house and give life a try, but instead you hide during the day at moms house and come out at night, to strut down the street or cross into the neighbors’ yards like the world owes you everything and all you need to do is put your hand out. All you have to do is run when you think you’re in trouble or hide under your hooded jacket. “I got to tell ya” from watching some of these “gangsta performances” with your back packs on. I can’t believe the jails are not jammed full with “ya back pack gangsters.” Which by the way the Conway Police must be very busy because when I call and report an issue with a certain person at a certain property and all the police can do is drive by and say that they “have to see the crime unfold because if they don’t lee it then it never happened,” even when you can get all the witnesses you want. “Makes me sick to my stomach.” “Oh yes” let’s not forget the “new and improved” gangsta, the one that gets caught but then released because he want’s to be a “snitch” for the police and so the gangsta can now do whatever he pleases in plain site, like Davis Park. That’s in Conway, by the way, right next to the covered bridge. Maybe “a good drive-by” is in order by the Conway Police. Let’s not try to sting these so-called gangsters; heck, that would be too easy. Let’s wait until there’s a drug deal that goes wrong and bullets flying into neighbors homes! From a Conway taxpayer, but not for long. When I attended Kennett High School back in the late 50s there was a bowling alley and roller skating rink where CVS now sits on the way to North Conway. At the end of Reporter Court there was Frenchy’s Bowling Alley and Pool Hall. On Saturday evenings there was a large dance on the way to Center Conway. Also on Saturday evenings the second floor of the Moultonborough Town Hall held a dance and there was a barn dance on route 153 in Freedom. The Town of Madison had a church young peoples’ group that met on Sunday evenings and we also played basketball against area towns. The basketball games and other activities were held in the old Town Hall at Madison Corner where the Historical Society currently is located. We even had cheerleaders, girls from our church group. Parents and Church Ministers were involved with the youth in town back then. There were the Odd Fellows and Grange Halls for the adults, there all gone now as our adults and town government practice APATHY. Want to address the drug problem, lets go back to the 50s.

TELE-TALK from page 7
Since The Conway Daily Sun has censored me in the past on this subject, saying the paper doesn’t “advocate violence,” I offer this suggestion. More coddling of the crackheads. How’s that working out? This is Ralph in Eaton. Chris Perley is wrong. There is no drug problem in North Conway. You can get all the drugs you want. No problem. The so-called acute drug problem has been manufactured by bearkilling Perley so as to drum up support for more police next year in the budget. This kind of seed planting is an insult to the collective intelligence of the people of Conway. The following Tele-Talk responses were posted on The Conway Daily Sun’s Facebook page: Tracking K-9s. Drop a dime. Education. Move. Nothing. It would be stupid to even try. Admit that there is one! How about a court system that actually punishes drug dealers instead of a “slap on the wrist.” It’s everywhere; it’s not just in the valley. Start with the doctors who are giving it out freely. Need to start there. Do more traffic stops at night. There are more problems with alcohol than there are drugs. I mean, way more. It’s a nationwide problem. Maybe start with places for people to turn to who want help. Start drug testing all the people who receive state help. Stiffer penalties may make the dealing less attractive. Affordable rehab, sober housing and counseling. Stricter laws, community support and NO meth clinic. Talk to our children about drug and alcohol abuse when they’re young so the next generation of adults maybe will have a chance! There is definitely a lot of alcoholism in this valley too! Make education, reading especially, a priority. The kids follow their parents’ lifestyles which most of the time include hard work and then a few beers or more. There are not many other choices without education. The work is difficult and the alcohol and drugs are a distraction from the pain of a life not fully lived. Maybe spending less time worrying about how many days someone has a yard sale or less time worrying about traffic violators and more time on taking tips from people when they tell you that someone came right out and said they had drugs in their possession. The saddest thing is that there are lots of kids in this valley living in homes with parents who use drugs, sometimes right in front of their children. That’s what happens when you combine lack of education, lack of money, and apathy on the part of many people. Drugs are everywhere, people do drugs everywhere, people are just going to continue to do what they want everywhere. Therefore if you are a drug-free individual, just be proud of yourself!
At least for prescription drugs, the state should create a database of who has been given prescriptions, for what reason and what drugs. If it appears that someone is getting more prescriptions filled than they could possibly need, the state can instruct all pharmacists to stop filling scripts for that person. Drugs have been a problem since the beginning of time. They start off as home remedies to addiction to being outlawed. It’s in every nook and corner of this Earth. Our area is not immune. Education maybe, rehabs, it doesn’t work in the big cities! It must start with your own self. We have pain, drugs are prescribed, we become addicted. Not everyone is a dope head! As far as regulating those on state funds is hog wash! I am an American, the land of the free! We all have too much “government” in our lives. And yes I do work and pay my taxes! We could start by outlining what the issue is. “The drug issue” is pretty vague. Next I would put together a plan on reducing the influx of drugs into the valley, arresting people for carrying drugs will never end until you defeat the source. And finally I would enforce a “no tolerance” policy for them. You get busted once, you pay the price. Examine and research leads; find the source of sales. Perhaps offer a hotline to anonymous people wishing to provide info. Who, what, where, when and how these drug distributors are infiltrating our village and schools? Also, is it possible we have manufacturers here pushing for profit? Begin with drug testing — schools and employment everywhere. It’s standard protocol for many employers. Just my 2 cents. Make drugs illegal — oh wait. This is a stupid question, nothing is going to change no matter what you do. It’s very clear that people are going to do what they want; nothing anybody does will stop people from seeking out an altered state of consciousness. The thing that can be done to improve the situation is to try to reduce the crime associated with drugs. If anything should have been learned from the prohibition of alcohol it is that prohibition creates a black market in which high risk means high prices. It’s these high prices that drive users into committing theft, fraud and violence against their neighbors. The best solution is to simply allow all drugs to be created and sold openly in the market place with no threat of arrest and jail. Moving the trade of drugs to the legitimate market place would achieve several goals: Quality of the doses would be consistent, reducing overdoses. Prices would drop significantly (think of the price of aspirin or over-the-counter pain killers), reducing or eliminating the need for users to commit crime to support their habit. For all the readers who think my ideas are outrageous, I ask: Where was all the support for the formerly proposed methadone clinic? Incarcerating more people isn’t going to solve a thing. Decriminalize it like Portugal, then put the wasted money from trying to stop it into education and help. It worked over there, making an international model for other countries.
PLOWING from page one
spokesman for the state’s Department of Transportation, said by phone Monday. “People will notice a difference; we've been significantly impacted (financially). Winter maintenance remains our priority. Our new policy will be similar to what the state of Maine does now.” "What DOT is proposing is unacceptable," Chandler said. "I'm formulating a plan and there are other people around the state who I've been talking to. This is nothing different than the school board having to cut its budget and announcing it'll cut football first; it's what gets the biggest uprise. "My preference is (DOT) will come up with another plan," he added. "I always feel it's better to let departments figure it out than leaving it to us because we might make the wrong decision. If they are unable to come up with an alternative plan then we will." Chandler hopes DOT will revise its plan over the next 30 days. "We need this done as soon as possible," he said. "We don't want the (DOT) message to get out there and people start canceling their trips to New Hampshire." Boynton said DOT lost 42 employees to budget cuts (there remain about 800 employees). Its budget was cut 11.5 percent; the budget is expected to be cut an additional 11 percent in 2012 and 13 percent in 2013; there was a 25 percent reduction in the state's sand and salt budget. DOT, which is responsible for 4,200 miles of state road including 90 miles on the turnpike, is also closing six of its 92 highway patrol sheds. The closest one to Conway, according to Boynton, is Patrol 307, which is in Ossipee. The route that patrol covered will now be absorbed by another patrol, meaning it will take longer to cover those sections of road. Boynton said the biggest change the DOT has proposed is to not plow some state roads between the hours of 9 p.m. and 4 a.m. The department also is
considering increasing the minimum amount of accumulation that requires plows to be called out between 4 a.m. 9 p.m. Currently, the department initiates plowing when one to two inches of snow has fallen, and it continues until the storm has ended. Boynton said the department has had to prioritize which roads will get the most attention this winter, those being the interstate highways and any state roads with 15,000 vehicles or more per day traveling them. Boynton said, in general, there will be more snow on the roads and it will take longer for plows to get to lesser-traveled state roads. "Plowing between 9 p.m. and 4 a.m. gets into all sorts of overtime," he said. "We're forced to make the necessary adjustments to keep within the budget framework we've been given — we're dealing with the hand we've been dealt, reduced funding means a reduction in service." "Tentatively the department will be altering our maximum accumulation 3"-7" (was 3"-6") depending on the section of roadway with average accumulations of around 1.5"-4.5" (was 1.5"-3.5")," Caleb B. Dobbins, PE, state maintenance engineer for the Bureau of Highway Maintenance at DOT, wrote an e-mail. "These increases will be as a result of lengthened route times from 1.5 hours- 4.5 hours (was 1.5 hours-3.5 hours) during the day and at night, on some routes, a possible doubling of this cycle time between 9 p.m. to 4 a.m. "There will also be changes during the evening hours
between 9 p.m. and 4 a.m. when there is a dramatic decrease in traffic volume," he continued."The NHDOT policy has always been based on ADT (Average Daily Traffic), but in reality ADT is not a straight line over the course of the day, so therefore why should the roadway maintenance and associated cost be constant over the course of the day? People can swim at a public beach any time of the day but lifeguards are only employed between 8 a.m. to 6 p.m., same reasoning. This will be noticed primarily on the lesser traveled roads with an ADT less than 5,000 but could affect any type of roadway depending on traffic patterns. To say that no plowing will occur on any state road between 9 p.m. to 4 a.m. is a gross misstatement. This will be essentially the same practice that Maine (doubles daytime cycle time) and Vermont utilize during their evening hours." Roads with vehicle traffic of over 15,000 per day will not notice a significant drop off in plowing service. Type 1B roads, which have an average travel of 5,000 to 15,000 vehicles per day, would see crews turning out when there is an average of 4 to 5 inches of snow (was 2 to 3 inches) has fallen on the roadway. Type 2 roads, which have an average travel of 1,000 to 5,000 vehicles per day, would see crews turning out when there is an average of 5 to 6 inches of snow (was 2.5 to 3.5 inches) has fallen on the roadway. Type 3 roads, which have an average travel of less than 3,000 vehicles per day, would see crews turning out when see PLOWING page 10

there is an average of 6 to 7 inches of snow (was 3.5 to 4.5 inches) has fallen on the roadway. "The northern part of the state is certainly going to be affected the most," Boynton said. "We've heard concerns from public works directors, but we're giving them a heads up well in advance." "All of the departments in the state have been cut," Chandler said, "(DOT) has not been hit harder than anyone else. I believe what they're planning to do is unacceptable. I'm hoping they'll come up with an alternative plan on their own or we can come up with one for them. I think if we start the process from what they are proposing is unacceptable and then we can go from there. They or the legislature have to go back to the table to find a way to allow plowing to continue has it has. I don't know that the governor (John Lynch) will be on board with what they are proposing." Chandler said he is not proposing more money for DOT, but rather
they find a different way to work within the department's means. "We need to change their priorities," he said. "What they're proposing will have a tremendous negative impact on the ski business and tourism in this state. People have always come to New Hampshire because they knew they could get here from there. I could see us losing skiers and tourists to Vermont and Maine if this new policy happens. "I could even make the argument, which I'm not endorsing, that they're picking the worst time not to plow," Chandler continued. "People need to get to work and to school. You might want to get everyone to school and work and then take the break, but I'm not proposing that. This plan is just not well thought out. If (DOT) is looking for public reaction, they've got it. We all have to live within the money we've got. I feel semi-confident we can make changes to the plan. If (DOT) had come out and said we're not going to repaint some lines on the road or replace culverts there wouldn't have been much of a reaction."

Torch is filling a position that was vacant prior to last spring. The position that was approved by voters is expected to be filled next month. “We’re looking really good for September for a new hire,” department spokesman Lt. Chris Perley said, referring to the voter-approved position, “barring some unusual circumstances.” The department had to go through two rounds of applicants for that position after the hiring process weeded out all of the candidates. “There’s not nearly as much to pick from as I thought there would be,” Perley said, considering the tough job market. In the early 1990s, he said, “I applied to the Salem Police Department and 300 people showed up.” Around here, he said, roughly 40 people apply when there are openings, and “20 percent of them have no business filling out the application. “It’s not like hiring a third key for a retail outlet,” he said. There are physical fitness, lie detector, medical and psychological tests. Conway is far enough away from most population centers to keep the number of experienced applicants down, he said, and “it’s tough to get people from the area because a lot of people who would qualify move out of the area.”
But even before the hiring process, the department has to have the money to hire. The position that opened up when a longtime officer resigned has been left vacant because of a hole in the department budget. The officer cashed out more than $30,000 in sick, vacation and comp time, and the department is waiting for that loss to even out before they bring on someone new. They are hoping to fill that spot in October, Perley said, which would leave the department fully staffed. Department officials have said in the past, however, they will likely ask for more officers at the next town meeting. They had put forward a warrant article asking for two more officers in addition to the one approved in the budget at last year’s town meeting, but residents voted it down. Torch, meanwhile, will be a welcome addition to a department that officials have repeatedly said is understaffed. Torch came to the department in 2010 as a dispatcher, and he was hired to be an officer earlier this year. He graduated with honors from Husson University in Bangor, Maine, where he earned a degree in criminal justice. New officers are required to go through the police academy, a 14-week school where officers practice high-speed driving, train on firearms, learn hand-to-hand tactics and constitutional law and go through diversity training.
Man suffers head injury after falling into Swift River
ALBANY — Rescue crews pulled a Massachusetts man from the Swift River on Sunday after he fell, hit his head and became stranded amid the rocks. Authorities have not released the man’s name, saying only that he was 48-years-old. Conway Fire and Rescue responded to Lower Falls around 5:30 p.m. for a report that a person fell into the river with a head injury, according to a written statement from fire clhief Stephen Solomon. “As fire personnel arrived on scene, they found the victim on the rocks in the middle of the river bleeding from his head.” Rescue personnel made their way to the man through chest-deep water, where they put him in a cervical collar, secured him to a backboard and then in a litter. Rescuers then carried the litter through rushing water back to shore, where ambulance personnel took him to Memorial Hospital. The entire rescue lasted about 40 minutes. “Swift water rescue is one of the more dangerous types of operations conducted by Conway Fire and Rescue,” Solomon said. “Special equipment and training is required to safely rescue victims on moving water.”

No 'regrets' in accepting late resignation of long-time teacher BY LLOYD JONES THE CONWAY DAILY SUN
CONWAY — One teacher leaving the Conway School District had her letter of resignation accepted with regret, while the "with regret" phrase was omitted in the resignation acceptance of a second long-time teacher. "With regret" are the two words the Conway School Board has added whenever it has accepted a letter of resignation within the district over the past six years. Both resignations came before the board July 25, after the June 30 deadline for contract renewals in the district. School superintendent Carl Nelson asked the board to accept the resignation of Sean Wetmore, who taught at the Pine Tree School last year, as the first of eight personnel changes. "I would ask the board withdraw the 'with regret' since the letter of resignation was sent after June 30," board member Dick Klement asked. Nelson said Wetmore was among a long list of personnel who received a Reduction In Force (RIF) pink slip this spring due to budgetary issues. "He was RIFed," John Skelton, of the board, said, "I think that mitigates this deadline. I don't mind him look-
ing at other options and would think he had to given the budget uncertainty here." "In this case, I would agree," fellow board member Syndi White said. The board voted 5-1 (Klement in the minority) to keep the "with regret" for Wetmore. About 10 minutes later, Nelson asked the board to accept Joan Hickey's letter of resignation with regret. Hickey ran the job prep program for special education at Kennett High for several years. Klement made a similar motion to have the "with regret" not included with the acceptance as the board received her letter of resignation that evening. "Was she RIFed?" Skelton asked. Nelson said she was not on the RIF list this spring. Board member Randy Davison asked how long Hickey has worked within the Conway School District. "A long time," Nelson responded. The board voted 4-1-1 to remove the "with regret" phrase, with Davison in the minority and board chairman Janine McLauchlan abstaining. Hickey is not the first employee to have the "with regret" removed from see next page

the acceptance of their resignation. In July of 2010, Klement on two different occasions made a motion to dispense with those words given the late timing of resignation letters. His colleagues agreed, with the exception of Davison. James Sitomer, a math teacher at Kennett High, and KHS Childhood Development and Education teacher Kathy Keene both had "with regret" omitted in acceptance of their letters of resignation. Davison argued the "with regret" should remain. "In fairness to the job market and in accordance to what this district pays, I don't think we should punish people," he said. "With regret and $5 will get you half a cup of coffee," Klement said with a grin. "I don't think the 'with regret' really makes a bit of difference to future employers."
Rain forces postponement of Team Chester's ascent of Mount Washington BY TOM EASTMAN THE CONWAY DAILY SUN
PINKHAM NOTCH — Sunday's planned Sunrise Ascent has been rescheduled for Sunday, Aug. 14, due to Mount Washington's notoriously foul weather. “It was a scratch on Sunday on account of the rain, but we are set to give it another go next Sunday,” said Sandy Olney, director of the Adaptive Sports Partners of the North Country of Franconia, the nonpofit organization that is to receive proceeds from the fund-raiser. “We have already reached our goal of 20,000 — we have busted it, actually, and now stand at about $27,000, with another week of time for more fundraising now that we postponed the ascent,” said Olney, a former North Conway resident who now resides in Franconia. For the ascent, four teams — including Chester Eastwood's of Eaton — will assemble at the base of the Mount Washington Auto Road at 5 a.m., determined to reach the 6,288-foot summit of the tallest mountain in the northeast. Each team will include an adaptive athlete and 14 human "mules," who, using a Trailrider (TM), will help push and pull the participant up the 8 miles to the 6,288-foot summit. Olney said the response for helpers has been impressive. “It's been so strong, that it's actually getting quite competitive,” laughed Olney, who said more aware-

Highest paid sheriff employee to retire BY DAYMOND STEER THE CONWAY DAILY SUN
OSSIPEE — The highest paid sheriff's employee plans to retire at the end of this year. In June, Sheriff Christopher Conley announced that Capt. David Meyers' compensation package transitioned to an $80,000 salary in the spring. Last year, Meyers earned about $79,500 which was a combination of base wage and about $20,000 in overtime. The captain filed an intent to retire by the

ness about the program has been launched by several articles in regional newspapers, including this one, which ran a story in its Aug. 3 edition on the climb and Eastwood's participation. Eastwood was born with cerebral palsy. Through the adaptive program, he skis in winter, and in summer, he kayaks and hikes and plays wheelchair soccer. *** Like Eastwood, each of the participants in Sunday's Sunrise Ascent on Mount Washington are “amazing athletes,” according to Olney. She said all four share a love of the outdoors and a determination to be as active as possible, regardless their severe mobility impairments. These impairments range from cerebral palsy in Eastwood's case, to amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, more commonly known as Lou Gehrig’s Disease and cerebral dysgenesis, the improper development of the brain. "All four of our participants are an inspiration to me and to anyone with a challenging condition," says Olney. "Each one has been with our program for a

end of the year, said Conley. No date has been set. The sheriff himself only earns $60,000. Conley justified Meyer's high salary by saying the captain works two jobs, one as a law enforcement officer and another as the sheriff's computer expert who runs a highly complex computer system for the county. The situation raised questions in the mind of former county commissioner Chip Albee. "He's the creator of the IT system that's now in see next page
while, skiing with us in the winter, hiking, biking, and kayaking in the summer." She added, "We plan activities to suit the desires of our clients." Since its creation in 2009, ASPNC has relied on the support of over 50 volunteers for the provision of services and financial support from businesses, foundations and individuals to help with operating expenses and the purchase of adaptive equipment. It presently serves individuals in Northern Grafton, Carroll and Coos counties in New Hampshire, and Eastern Caledonia and Essex in Vermont. Team Chester, Easwood's team, is conducting a fund-raiser by selling raffle tickets with the chance to win a grille donated by Home Depot. Tickets are $2 each or three for $5, and are on sale at the Eaton Village Store. That store is leased by Eastwood's step-father, Willie Hatch, and mother, Kristin Burnell. The winner's name is to be drawn on the summit Sunday after the ascent, according to Burnell. Other support can be given through Firstgiving.com at www.firstgiving.com/fundraiser/ teamchester2011/2011-samw-team-chester.

place and now he's leaving," said Albee of Meyers. "It would be a disservice to the county if you didn't allocate more of his time between now and his retirement to bring whoever it is who will take over the IT up to speed. The bigger fault would be if after his retirement we found a lot of contract money going his way to maintain a system he created." Conley said he agreed with Albee on "all points." Conley also said Meyers will not be making any additional money from the New Hampshire retirement system because of the conversion from wage to salary. "It (retirement system) is based on a three-year average (of income). He'll probably make less money this year than he did last year," said Conley. County commissioner Dorothy Solomon asked if the person who replaces Meyers would be salary or hourly. Conley said his intent is to have Meyers' replacement work on an hourly basis. Meyers' compensation was changed because of his unique skill set. Meyers works 40 hours per week on law enforcement activities but he averaged 50 to 70 hours of overtime per month, which was almost entirely IT. Information from the sheriff shows Meyers has been working more IT hours after the conversion to salary. On an unrelated topic, Rep. David Babson (R-Ossipee) asked about the electric car starters that the sheriff purchased for cruisers. Conley said if he has to call in a deputy early in the morning, it cuts down on response time if the car is warmed up. But the priority is to have a device that allows a deputy to shut off his cruiser if someone tries to take it. That could possibly happen in several situations. When deputies are doing transports, there are occasions where a prisoner is left in the car alone. At accident scenes, deputies need to leave their cars to do investigation.

CONWAY — Ray Shakir, a controversial budget committee member and prominent local Republican, now says he inadvertently used false information to clarify his position on the president in comments that made national press this year. In June, Mother Jones, a national non-profit news organization, reported Shakir called the president a "jungle alien." Mother Jones was interviewing Shakir because he was hosting a house party for former Minnesota Governor Tim Pawlenty. Shakir said Mother Jones quoted him accurately. Days later, personal e-mails from Shakir surfaced that showed he used more hateful words to describe the president. In a July interview with The Conway Daily Sun, Shakir said he believes President Barack Obama to be an immigrant from Kenya, a country with jungle terrain. Shakir declined to discuss the e-mails but did say the term "jungle alien" was not intended to be racist. During last month's interview, Shakir referenced what he believed at the time to be a legitimate transcript from Meet The Press. Shakir said the official looking transcript claimed Obama wanted to disarm America. The transcript also said Obama wished to redesign the flag and the national anthem and that he and his wife attended flag burnings. Shakir said he now knows the transcript is fake. see SHAKIR page 16

Shakir said he saw the transcript shortly before his interview with The Conway Daily Sun and and didn't get a chance to verify the authenticity. Shakir said the transcript was believable because it seemed to fit with Obama's record. "I was waylaid when it said Meet the Press," said Shakir. "I thought it was legit. I'm not perfect." Still, Shakir says there's plenty of other information out there that proves his larger point that the president is anti-American and is not from this country. That includes Obama's relationships with controversial pastor Rev. Jeremiah Wright and Bill Ayers, who was a co-founder of a Vietnam War-era revolutionary group. As another example, Shakir pointed to an article on Vision to America.org, which said attorney Orly Taitz was attempting to subpoena Obama's birth certificate to see if she and a team of experts can verify it. Other sources that Shakir considers reliable include the Center For Individual Freedom and the Heritage Foundation. Conway Daily Sun reader Ken McKenzie, of Eaton, challenged Shakir's statements about the "supposed" Meet the Press transcript in a letter last week. Shakir said he realized the transcript was fake prior to McKenzie's letter being published.
Board votes against private bus services BY LLOYD JONES THE CONWAY DAILY SUN
CONWAY — The Conway School Board has voted unanimously against outsourcing its bus transportation serves to a private firm for the foreseeable future. A general lack of competition for the services along with a recommendation by an independent consultant last year led the district’s transportation committee to steer the board in this direction. Board member Randy Davison, chair of the transportation committee, briefed his colleagues July 25 on the committee’s meeting from July 13. Committee members include Davison and Rick Breton, of the school board; Jim Hill and Carl Nelson, of SAU 9; and the district’s transportation coordinators Gredel Shaw and Carol Bennett. “There’s some major concern about going to privatization,” Davison said. “Given the location of this community and the lack of competition, we feel it is not in the best interest of the district to go that route.” The district currently maintains its own bus fleet. While there may be some initial savings over the current in-house bus program, Mark Walsh, of the Walworth, N.Y.-based Transportation Advisory Services, stated last fall in a 40-page report that “given the lack
of competition in this region, we are very concerned that the long-term pricing may be an issue when the initial contract expires.” Outsourcing entails the development of bid (or Request For Proposals) specifications, the operation of a bid program, the awarding of a multi-year contract, the sale of assets (buses), and the elimination of the public sector staff members (drivers). “Competition, or the apparent lack thereof, is a very serious issue that we believe the district needs to consider,” the report states. “Based on the experience of other districts in the region, our review of regional contracts, and the fact that the district’s program is relatively small, we believe that it is unlikely that there would be significant competition for the contract. Although the district can certainly consider bidding to determine the actual interest from contractors, our concern would be more long term. In most cases, contracts are developed for five years. The district sells the fleet, lays off the drivers, and turns the entire operation over to the contractor. Going into the fifth year, the district will need to make a decision about future contracts. If the district decides to rebid the contract, would there be more than one contractor competing for the service? If not, there is a serious risk that the effective lack of competition could result in significant contract cost increases. “If the district is pleased with the contractor’s services, a renewal of the contract would be possible. However, what if the contractor does not agree to a reasonable renewal price? The district would then be forced into rebidding, and we are again at the mercy of the competitive marketplace. “There is the alternative of what is called a ‘management contract.’ In this environment, the district would continue to be responsible for providing the buses, and the contractor would be responsible for labor and maintenance. Although these types of contracts do not always provide the same level of savings, it would offer the district the ability to ‘get back into the business’ at the end of five years given that the district would still own the buses. At that point, the district would need to hire drivers and reestablish a maintenance program. This type of contract would be an alternative if the district was determined to investigate outsourcing.” Davison made a motion that the board oppose outsourcing at this time. The board voted 6-0 (Rick Breton not in attendance) to take the recommendation. The transportation committee is also looking at a way to offset transportation costs. Davison said the committee suggests looking at an earlier starting time for the three elementary school, moving from a 9 a.m. to 8:30 a.m. start of school. “We believe we could save about $10,000 in elementary school transportation costs,” Davison said. “I’d like to delve into the start time a little more,” Janine McLauchlan, board chairman, said. “Also, we would need to know what a time change would mean to the bus routes.” Davison said the committee is recommending the district, contrary to the independent report, not downsize its spare bus fleet. There are currently at least six spares buses. “The number of spares we have now is a welcome sight,” he said. “We agreed to maintain the fleet we have an utilize them in the best interests of the Conway School District.” The committee also recommended adding a $2 charge for students to take spectator buses to away playoff games. Board member John Skelton asked if the $2 fee was a firm one regardless of the distance of the trip. Davison said it was. Fellow board member Dick Klement offered that 60 students would only generate $120 and said that probably would not cover the cost of fuel or the driver’s time. “It may cost us more than that to collect and then account for the fees,” he said. “It may be too much work for that small amount of money.” Kennett High principal Neal Moylan said the school requests roughly three or four buses a year to go to semi-final or championship games. “That’s in a good year,” he said, smiling. “We’re talking about $360 for the year,” McLauchlan said, “I agree with Dick, it may not be worth the work, but I do like the idea of asking for something.” “We were looking for a creative way to generate some revenue,” Davison said. “When I was in school we always had to pay a fee for spectator buses. It wasn’t a given we’d ride for free to playoff games.” Davison’s motion to implement a $2 spectator bus fee failed 4-2 with he and Syndi White in the minority.

bakers of Eaton will be offering lots of goodies: pies, cakes, cookies, muffins, scones, and other delicious fare. Bakers: drop off items on Saturday, Aug. 13, between 9 and 10 a.m. or leave at Jeanne Hartman’s on Friday. It should be a great day.

Edward C. Fuller
Edward C. Fuller 66, of Fairview Drive in Fryeburg, Maine, died Friday evening, Aug. 5, 2011, at his residence. He was born in Sharon, Conn., the son of Homer Fuller and Olive Silvernail Fuller, and was educated there. Ed was a building contractor for many years, and moved to the Fryeburg area several years ago to enjoy his retirement. Ed was of Cherokee Indian descent, and like his ancestors, he had a distinct love of nature and was an avid outdoorsman. He was also a lover of bluegrass music, and was an accomplished banjo, mandolin, and guitar player. Ed was a lover of life, and those who knew him were witness to his amazing sense of humor and the object of his good natured tricks. He built strong friendships with the people who were close to him at Fryeburg Health Care Center, his bluegrass buddies, and also his beloved horse, J.R. Ed will be missed by all who knew him, especially Nancy, Vicki, and Vicki’s husband Bob. Ed is survived by his Fryeburg

Andre Beechel Botta, 41, of Fryeburg, Maine, a citizen of the universe, born Jan. 7, 1970 passed peacefully from this world July 26, 2011. Andre's passion and his bliss were reflected in his songwriting, poetry, philosophy, filmmaking and in his role as a beloved father, fiance to the love of his life, as a son, brother and cherished friend. He was a man of many talents with a heart of gold. He spread his love, compassion and wisdom from Maine to Hollywood, Calif. and his absence will be felt far and wide. His beautiful smile and contagious laugh will be sorely missed.

and gooseberries are gone. Most of the raspberries are done as well. Come on down to get those blueberries today. I would like to thank Barry and Diane Portnoy for the lovely summer party they put on recently. The raw bar was great, the dinner and exotic drinks were just lovely, as was the beautiful evening, full of stars. They also showed a film that their daughter-in-law Elika Portnoy starred in called “Immigration Tango.” What a night to watch a great film under the starry skies, followed later by a big bonfire. Outstanding evening. Big news for the Eaton Fest coming up on Sept. 11 and fun classes you can attend for a very low cost, all next week. Tune in.

DILBERT
by Scott Adams
By Holiday Mathis SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Children want to be grownups, and grownups want to return to a life of few responsibilities and limited liability. Make the novel choice -- enjoy your age. You could start a trend. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You’ll plan your workout well, though unpredictable events will challenge that plan. Your strength is your astounding adaptability. You could even be promoted for this talent in the weeks to come. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Just because someone is a supporter of yours doesn’t mean that an exchange will be easy. Dealing with good friends could cause you much more stress than it’s worth now. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). There is little to be gained from fame. Pursue usefulness instead. That is what will make you happy and wealthy. Capricorn and Virgo people will be helpful business partners. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Get on top of the wave, and you’ll glide like the freest of beings. Get underneath it, and you’ll be pummeled and dragged down. So make a strong effort to leap up and take the ride that’s offered. TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (August 9). You have serious projects to complete this year, so you plan well, guard your time and keep everything on course. October brings a victory. Your personal life sparkles with opportunity and surprises. You’ll journey with a kindred spirit in December. There will be many amusements. You’ll close a deal in May. Aquarius and Virgo people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 9, 25, 2, 24 and 35.
Get Fuzzy
ARIES (March 21-April 19). Your big idea is becoming a full-blown ambition. Stay theoretical. It’s not time to act yet. Seek patient, understanding and flexible teammates to help you work out the details. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Needing everything to be smooth is a detriment to success. The better you can tolerate small, bothersome details, the farther you will go in business and pleasure. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You may find that you are easily distracted by things that don’t really matter. Take it as a sign to change tracks. Go for a walk, call a friend, or do something else on that lengthy to-do list of yours. CANCER (June 22-July 22). Your will is not the same as what the others want from you, though a certain loved one is so slick that you may not notice this right away. Do not make any decision when you are feeling overloaded or pressured. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Though you try not to expect too much from loved ones, you also know that patterns are likely to repeat. The one who has impressed you before will soon impress you again. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You are willing to take a risk when it comes to love, but not when it comes to commerce. Keep your money where it is until you completely and thoroughly understand and trust the investment. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Love erases discomfort. This afternoon, knowing that you are accepted and adored will come as a psychic relief. And tonight, you will in turn give similar emotional support to someone else.

THE CONWAY DAILY SUN, Tuesday, August 9, 2011— Page 25
Today is Tuesday, Aug. 9, the 221st day of 2011. There are 144 days left in the year. Today’s Highlight in History: On Aug. 9, 1941, President Franklin D. Roosevelt received British Prime Minister Winston Churchill aboard the USS Augusta off Newfoundland; this was their first encounter as the leaders of their respective countries. The talks resulted in the Atlantic Charter defining goals for a post-war world. On this date: In 1842, the United States and Canada resolved a border dispute by signing the Webster-Ashburton Treaty. In 1854, Henry David Thoreau’s “Walden,” which described Thoreau’s experiences while living near Walden Pond in Massachusetts, was first published. In 1902, Edward VII was crowned king of Britain following the death of his mother, Queen Victoria. In 1910, the U.S. Patent Office granted Alva J. Fisher of the Hurley Machine Co. a patent for an electrically powered washing machine. In 1936, Jesse Owens won his fourth gold medal at the Berlin Olympics as the United States took first place in the 400-meter relay. In 1945, three days after the atomic bombing of Hiroshima, Japan, the United States exploded a nuclear device over Nagasaki, killing an estimated 74,000 people. In 1969, actress Sharon Tate and four other people were found brutally slain at Tate’s Los Angeles home; cult leader Charles Manson and a group of his followers were later convicted of the crime. In 1974, President Richard Nixon and his family left the White House as his resignation took effect. In 1995, Jerry Garcia, lead singer of the Grateful Dead, died in Forest Knolls, Calif., of a heart attack at age 53. One year ago: A fed-up JetBlue flight attendant, Steven Slater, cursed out a passenger he said had treated him rudely, grabbed a beer and slid down the emergency chute of an Embraer 190 at New York’s Kennedy Airport. Today’s Birthdays: Actor Sam Elliott is 67. Singer Barbara Mason is 64. Actress Melanie Griffith is 54. Actress Amanda Bearse is 53. Singer Whitney Houston is 48. Actor Pat Petersen is 45. Pro Football Hall of Famer Deion Sanders is 44. Actress Gillian Anderson is 43. Actor Eric Bana is 43. Producer-director McG (aka Joseph McGinty Nichol) is 43. TV anchor Chris Cuomo is 41. Actor Thomas Lennon is 41. Rock musician Arion Salazar is 41. Rapper Mack 10 is 40. Actress Nikki Schieler Ziering is 40. Latin rock singer Juanes is 39. Actress Liz Vassey is 39. Actress Rhona Mitra (ROH’-nuh MEE’truh) is 36. Actor Texas Battle is 35. Actress Jessica Capshaw is 35. Actress Anna Kendrick is 26.

When I was 9 and my sister was 6, we were in a car accident with my mother that resulted in my sister’s death. Her death changed my life in ways I can never explain. My father began abusing drugs and beating me. My mother started stealing and was always unemployed. She became severely depressed and also abused prescription drugs. I was left to raise myself, and now, as an adult, I don’t want a relationship with either of them. How can I get my mother to accept that despite her wishes, I do not want to live my life watching her waste hers? It leaves me feeling depressed, angry and hopeless. I have been diagnosed as bipolar. Almost all my life I have known only death, drugs, abuse and pain. I just want peace from these people. Please help. -- FRUSTRATED SON IN GEORGIA DEAR FRUSTRATED SON: You have my deepest sympathy for the tragedy that destroyed your family. Had your parents received the professional help they needed at the time of the accident, much of it might have been prevented. Tell your parents that unless they seek help NOW for their problems, they will have lost not one, but two, children. However, if they choose to continue as they have been -which is likely -- then you must go on with your life. The answer to a toxic situation such as what you have experienced is to divorce yourself. Because you can’t fix them, you must save yourself. You have been damaged enough. DEAR ABBY: My daughter, “Kate,” is 27 and has a 3-yearold son. She and the father are not married. He is self-cen-
tered, controlling and keeps her stranded. She has no car and no money. They currently live with his family -- a far from ideal situation. I am struggling because I’m unable to help her financially, and she feels lost and alone. My husband (her stepfather) won’t allow them to live with us, which I understand. We’re scrimping to get by. I have located several online sites for single moms regarding assistance, but I feel it is up to Kate to pursue them. What else can I offer her regarding steering her in the right direction? If she could contact others in her situation, perhaps they might point her in directions I cannot. Your advice would be welcomed. -- GRANDMA IN PRESCOTT, ARIZ. DEAR GRANDMA: Because of your financial situation there is a limit to what you can do. Give your daughter the websites and explain that she may find support and suggestions there from other single mothers -- the rest is up to her. But please, realize that until your daughter is willing to take charge of her life, nothing will change. Continue to be caring and supportive, and let your daughter know you love her. DEAR ABBY: When someone elopes, is a bridal shower after the fact appropriate? There will be a reception later this summer where a wedding gift seems expected. I think having a bridal shower is not proper etiquette. What do you say? -ASKANCE IN VERMONT DEAR ASKANCE: The intent of a wedding shower is to extend good wishes to the bride -- and with increasing frequency, the groom. Having one after a hastily planned wedding or an elopement is not a breach of etiquette. However, if you disapprove, no law says you must attend.

NCMBLAll Star raises $1,000 for National Guard Chaplain Emergency Relief Funding ––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– SPORTS –––––––––––––––––––––––––––––
BY JEAN LEBLANC THE BERLIN DAILY SUN
BERLIN — The 2011 NCMBL ALL-STAR game started with great excitement the evening of July 29. The Berlin Junior High School was packed with NCMBL supporters and generous donors who wanted to help the VFW raise money for the National Guard Chaplain Emergency Relief Fund. The Marine Corps League presented the flags and Tess Letarte began the night with the National Anthem. After the opening ceremony ended the second annual three-point contest began. Dan Enman defended his three point title from last year and beat out 7 other contestants and Cameron Patry in the final round to take his second three-point shootout contest title. He won $50 but donated $30 back to the cause to help the NCMBL hit their $1000 goal for the night. Once the game began there was non-stop action. The North jumped out quickly to an 8-2 lead, but then the South went on a big run and took an eight point lead. Once the two teams settled down the game went back and forth with alley-oops, dunks, and deep threes. Tough Guys’ Jeremy Michalik hit five threes in his game to lead the scores with 25 points. Town and Country’s Captain Curtis Arsenault kept his team in the game with a few deep fad-away threes and a team high of 24 points. Eventually the balanced offense of the North got the edge over the South and they were able to take the 95-92 victory. Dylan Curry’s rebound with three seconds left sealed the win for the North and helped them hold on to their slim victory. At halftime a slam-dunk contest was held.

Pro-Basketball Player Anthony Bathalon stole the show with his perfect 30 point dunk when he jumped over a four-wheeler for the slam-dunk. His missed between the legs dunk lost him the contest, but the fans were on their feet for his high-flying dunks in which he wore league founder Jesse Arsenault’s number 24 jersey in honor of his service to the United States overseas at this time. The 2011 MVP Award was also given out at halftime to Keven James who has consistently dominated while playing for Mr. Pizza and received the most votes from his fellow players, fans, and captains. At the end of the night the North Country Men’s Basketball League donated $100 to the cause and raised $1,000 for the National Guard Chaplain Emergency Relief Fund after many generous donors helped reach the $1,000 goal. The NCMBL would like to thank the VFW for taking part in the event and making it such a success. They would also like to thank all the donors and fans who helped them be able to donate $1,000 to this great cause that helps United States servicemen and their families. All fans are welcome to come to the NCMBL Tournament which will be held tomorrow from 7-12, Thursday from 8-11, and Friday from 8-10. All games are free to the public.
