Eighth-grade trip takes a detour
BY ERIK EISELE

356-3456
CONWAY — Eighth graders at Kennett Middle School will get a little brotherly love next spring. Due to the current economy, the annual eighth grade trip is being scaled back from the pilgrimage to Washington D.C. to Philadelphia in 2012. The move will save roughly $300 per student, but one school board member believes the district is short-changing the children by not going to the nation's capital. Kevin Richard, principal of the Kennett Middle School, explained the decision to down-
Klement: “Philadelphia is a poor second choice to Washington DC.” size the trip at last week's Conway School Board meeting. He said Washington DC is simply too cost-prohibitive given the economy. It would cost roughly $660 to $700 per student to go to DC as opposed to $360 to go to Philadelphia. "The eighth grade parents met over the summer to discuss if Washington DC was still see TRIP page 8

Average scores slip on SAT
(NY Times) — Average scores on the SAT fell across the nation this year, with the reading score for the high school class of 2011 falling three points to 497, the lowest on record, according to a report Wednesday by the College Board, which administers the exams. The average writing score dropped two points, to 489, and the math score was down one point, to 514. The College Board attributed the decline to the increasing diversity of the students taking the test. For example, about 27 percent of the nearly 1.65 million test-takers last year came from a home where English was not the only language, up from 19 percent a decade ago. But Robert Schaeffer, public education director of FairTest, a nonprofit group critical of much standardized testing, said the declines were an indictment of the nation’s increasing emphasis on high-stakes testing programs and of No Child Left Behind, the federal education law that has driven it. “How many wake-up calls do policy makers need before they admit that their test-and-punish strategy is a failure?” Mr. Schaeffer said. “Policymakers need to embrace very different policies if they are committed to real education reform.”

Obama praises Libya’s post-Qaddafi leaders UNITED NATIONS (NY Times) — President Obama met Libya’s transitional leader for the first time on Tuesday, and extolled what he called the Libyan people’s successful struggle to depose Col. Muammar el-Qaddafi. The meeting came on the first of two days of annual meetings of the United Nations General Assembly, during which the most vexing issue confronting Mr. Obama will be the Palestinian quest for full membership.
“Just as the world stood by you in your struggle to be free, we will stand with you in your struggle to realize the peace and prosperity that freedom can bring,” the president said at a meeting on Libya’s future, which included other world leaders and emissaries from the Transitional National Council, the group of former Libyan rebels whose forces ended Colonel Qaddafi’s four decades of absolute rule last month. Before the meeting, Mr. Obama
met privately with the leader of the council, Mustafa Abdel Jalil. In his remarks at the meeting, Obama warned the Libyans that it “will take time to build the institutions needed for a democratic Libya — there will be days of frustration.” But he said the successful overthrow of Colonel Qaddafi, with aid from a NATO bombing campaign, had demonstrated that the world should “not underestimate the aspirations and will of the Libyan people.”
Georgia pardons board denies Afghan peace council chief clemency for death row inmate killed in attack on his home
ATLANTA (NY Times) — Troy Davis, whose death row case ignited an international campaign to save his life, has lost what appeared to be his last attempt to avoid death by lethal injection on Wednesday. Rejecting pleas by Mr. Davis’s lawyers that shaky witness testimony and a lack of physical evidence presented enough doubt about his guilt to spare him death, the Georgia State Board of Pardons and Paroles ruled on Tuesday morning that Mr. Davis, 42, should die for killing Mark
MacPhail, an off-duty police officer, in a Savannah parking lot in 1989. “He has had ample time to prove his innocence, and he is not innocent,” said Mr. MacPhail’s widow, Joan MacPhail-Harris. “We have laws in this land so that there is not chaos. We are not killing Troy because we want to. We’re trying to execute him because he was punished.” She MacPhail’s mother and the couple’s two grown children were tearful after the hearing on Monday, pleading exhaustion.
KABUL, Afghanistan (NY Times) — The most prominent Afghan official trying to negotiate a reconciliation with the Taliban was assassinated Tuesday night by a suicide bomber with explosives tucked in his turban who had been brought to his home by a trusted emissary, officials said. The assassination was a potentially devastating blow to the Afghan-led peace process aimed at ending 10 years of war. The main victim of the attack, Burhanuddin Rabbani, was the leader of the High Peace Council, and had been tasked with reaching out to the Taliban for ways to resolve the conflict. Mr. Rabbani was also a former president of Afghanistan, and news of his death sent shock waves through the Afghanistan government just as President Hamid Karzai was at the United Nations General Assembly. Karzai was cutting short his trip to head home, aides said.

UNH plan to merge colleges, Manchester resident in court research institute scrapped over shooting of man in face BY CLYNTON NAMUO THE UNION LEADER
DURHAM — A proposal to merge two colleges and a major research institute at the University of New Hampshire has been shelved. UNH’s central budget committee made numerous money-saving recommendations this spring to deal with millions of dollars in cuts to state funding. Among the proposals was the merging of administrative functions for the College of Life Sciences and Agriculture, the College of Engineering and Physical Sciences and the Institute for the study of Earth, Oceans and Space. Provost John Aber said in a letter issued last week that a study group consisting of faculty members evaluated the merger during a meeting in July and rejected it. “Based on discussions in the group, the availability of information from other institutions on similar merger efforts and the recent completion of a comprehensive reorganization in COLSA, it was concluded that there is no advantage to pursuing this merger at this time,” Aber wrote. “There will
be no further discussions on this idea.” In a separate report on the July meeting, Aber wrote that the study group concluded a merger would be “very disruptive” and would “create a unit that was too large and complex” without saving enough money. The report also noted that a merger would “generate strong resistance among faculty and staff.” The rejection closes the door on what could have resulted in a major administrative shake-up on campus. Former COLSA Dean Thomas Brady resigned July 1 to return to the faculty and some had speculated that he stepped down because of the possible merger. A separate cost-saving proposal to revamp UNH’s graduate school remains on the table, Aber’s letter said last week. A group consisting of faculty and others met late last month to look at where the school could be improved, particularly to increase enrollment and revenue. The group noted that professional degrees, as opposed to academic ones, offer plenty of opportunities for growth, Aber said in his letter.
BY TED SIEFER THE UNION LEADER
MANCHESTER — A city man is facing first-degree assault and other charges for allegedly shooting a man twice in the face. James Conkle, 30, appeared in Manchester District Court on Monday and is being held on $300,000 bond pending a probable cause hearing next month. The victim, Casey Margraf, 20, identified Conkle as the shooter as he lay bleeding in the rear driveway of his residence on Valley Street on Saturday night, according to a police report. He was rushed to the hospital, placed in an induced coma and transported to Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston. As of Monday evening, Margraf was in serious condition, an upgrade from his initial status of critical.
Margraf told police that he believed he had been shot with a small-caliber handgun, possibly a .22. The motive for the shooting is unclear, but Margraf told police at the scene that it was related to a fight he had been having with Rosemary Levesque, whom police identify as Conkle’s girlfriend. Conkle was also charged with being a felon in possession of a weapon. He was convicted in 1996 for receiving stolen property, in 1997 for robbery, and in 1999 for first-degree assault and for possessing a weapon as a felon. The 1999 charges related to the shooting of Jesse A. Garcia. Conkle had shot Garcia three times with a .32 caliber revolver, while claiming self-defense, saying Garcia had come after him with an aluminum bat. Garcia suffered a collapsed lung, but survived.

If you like deficit spending, vote Republican To the editor: If you listen to the traditional media, you are led to believe that Republicans are the party of small government, and of fiscal responsibility. Looking at their track record, this could not be further from the truth. If you like deficit spending, vote Republican. From 1946 to end of year 2009), the average increase in the federal debt was 4.8 percent under a Democratic president and 8.2 percent under a Republican president. Presidents Reagan, George H.W. Bush, and George W. Bush presided over the greatest deficit spending. They all lowered taxes and raised spending. George W. Bush was the worst. He cut taxes, then took the nation to war, and charged it, to the tune of over $5 trillion. In contrast, Obama has only spent $1.44 trillion, on the stimulus, which did turn job losses around. Obama proposed a bill that would have cut the deficit by $4 trillion, but was rejected by who? Republicans in Congress. They were happy to spend spend spend, but refuse to raise taxes and cut spending to pay for their spree. Their goal was not to help Americans, but to hurt the president politically. They deserve to be voted out for this alone. The latest story I have read is quite revealing. Concerning federal civilian employees, over the past 40 years, Republicans added six times as many employees to the federal payrolls as Democrats did. The president who cut the most jobs was Bill Clinton. Of the 369,000
employees added to the federal government payroll between 1962 and 2001, 84 percent were added under Republican administrations and 16 percent were added under Democratic administrations. Clinton cut employees by 380,000. Then George W Bush added 53,000 employees. So the party of small government is not that at all. We all listen to the candidates spout off their sound bytes. Looking at the truth of what they did, it turns out to be the opposite of their rhetoric. On the state level, this is shocking. In Texas, under governor Rick Perry, a twoyear budget cycle began this week. In the budget, money for volunteer fire departments was cut from $30 million to $7 million. The budget for the state forest service was cut by one-third. Today the state is on fire. Over a thousand homes have been destroyed. Fighting fire is the perfect example of the need for government, This is something we can not do on our own. We need to band together, collect resources and train firefighters to be prepared for an event like this. It is not enough to promote personal responsibility. We need government to work for us. Texas is one “hell” of a role model. Here at home, we will see the same thing happen next winter when the snow plowing budget has been cut. Instead of burning up, courtesy of Republican budget cuts, we will be slippin and slidin’. Bert Weiss Chatham

Global financial system teetering on utter disintegration To the editor: The current global financial system is currently teetering on utter disintegration. The biggest banks, the “Too Big to Fail” banks are the most insolvent. The push to save this rotten system on the backs of nations and their populations is fascist economics 101. We have seen with President Obama massive bailouts to these banks while at the same time doing little to nothing for the millions of Americans that have lost their homes and/or jobs. The people are thrown out into the streets while Wall Street and the city of London eat caviar. There is no promising future, it is eat or be eaten, that is why the younger people must fight to reverse this direction. Instead of saving the Global Financial system with the population’s blood, the United States must lead a move by many nations to erect a firewall to protect the people from these disintegrating banks. We can start at home in the United States by the reenactment of Roosevelt’s 1933 Glass-Steagall Act (HR. 1489). Once this is done we will again have a traditional banking system, with an emphasis on the increase of the productive powers of our nation’s people. Instead of today’s emphasis on exotic financial services, we and other eager nations can emphasize real, physically productive wealth. Commercial banks once separated from investment banks will through an act of congress be recapitalized in order to maintain normal business functions, at the same time the states like New Hampshire will also be recapitalized to maintain vital services such as disaster relief and adequate fire and police forces etc. On Oct. 1, from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m., there will be a town hall meeting at the Conway Public Library where I will be explaining in more depth these crucial measures to save our republic. I will also be taking questions from the audience for even more elaboration of these steps. There will also be a one-time showing of a LaRouche PAC Production “9/11: Ten Years Later” the real story behind 9/11. The showing will follow the meeting and will be located at the
Conway Majestic Theater at 4 p.m. Although these steps are absolutely necessary to act and to move with, they are but only the first steps. They will not solve the massive unemployment in the United States; they will employ only a very few. Therefore, these measures will not work if we do not take further actions to reindustrialize the United States and to return the jobs that have been lost to the American people. This can be done through massive infrastructure development, whose purpose is to transform our current physical economy to the highest technologically advanced physical economy that can exist. We will be again the beacon of liberty for the world and the world’s mentor in economic development. It will be an upshift in orders of magnitude of the mental and physical productive powers of our nation as a whole. The North American Water and Power Alliance (NAWAPA), designed in the 60s by the Parsons Company, is of a scale which can make this happen. If all of this is to happen then the fascist financiers in our financial system will have to be stopped and/or jailed, anyone who protects them or pushes their policies should resign immediately or be constitutionally removed from office, this includes President Obama. We must have a functioning presidency if we are to have a functioning nation. Especially now as the economic crisis worsens and as natural disasters increase in number and in magnitude. The nation is washing away while Obama plays golf. New Hampshire is one of the greatest states in the Union; its people take pride in their freedom and are willing to fight for freedom. They are willing to fight for future generations to have those blessed rights imbedded in our Constitution and the Declaration of Independence. God Bless the men and women who have served this Nation and God Bless America. For more information go to LaRouchePAC.com and come out on Oct. 1. Daniel Yule LaRouche PAC representative Silver Lake
Thanks for refreshements during hurricane repairs To the editor: Many thanks to the Mount Washington Hotel for the hot coffee and pastries delivered daily to our worksite at Hart’s Location. Ever since Hurricane Irene damaged the Sawyer River Bridge, our crew has been working long hours to build a temporary bridge. The daily refreshments, as well as com-
plete meals brought by kind local folks, made us feel appreciated and helped us get through the long days. These acts of generosity and kindness will not be forgotten by myself and my coworkers. Thank you again. David Smith Bridge Crew 8, NH DOT Melvin Village
President has more to do than repudiate others’ remarks To the editor: The Wednesday, Sept. 7, Conway Daily Sun included a letter from one Arnie Schiegoleit of Jackson who suggests that President Obama is a “real no-class SOB” because he didn’t repudiate a stupid statement made by a union boss in reference to Tea Partiers on the same day that President Obama made
a speech of national consequence. I should hope that our president has more important things on his mind than to repudiate stupid remarks made by others, whether made by labor bosses or made by local citizens in letters to the editor. Dwight Smith Kearsarge

GRANT from page one
on Tuesday. “Everything is moving forward.” At the same time the department is trying to figure out just how to approach the budget shortfall that looks imminent. The department needs voter approval to accept the federal grant, which is handed out by the U.S. Department of Justice. The grant would pay the salary and benefits of an additional police officer for three years, but the town has to agree to pay for the fourth year. Conway has an ordinance that does not allow the town to agree to such commitments without the voters’ approval, which has created a problem in this case because the grant is only available for 30 days after the award has been announced. The town has asked Congressman Frank Guinta’s office and Senator Jeanne Shaheen’s office to try to delay the grant, and the special town meeting will hopefully give voters a chance to weigh in before the grant expires. The awards are supposed to come out in September, but the department hasn’t heard anything yet. “The longer we don’t hear, the better,” Wagner said. The timeline for the meeting is quicker than officials originally thought was possible. Early estimates were putting together a special meeting

viable financially," Richard said. "We decided that given the current economy and the costs that DC was prohibitive at this time." Richard estimates 145 students will go on the trip scheduled for May 22-24, 2012. "Philadelphia is a poor second choice to Washington DC," board member Dick Klement said. "I understand the dilemma you're in, but I see this as three days away from from school and only one day are you doing anything educationally. To see the (Philadelphia) Zoo and the Hard Rock Cafe as places you were going, it's disappointing." Eighth graders have made this annual trip to
would take three months. Instead, the first part of the meeting, for discussion on the article, is just over a month away. “It’s good,” Lt. Chris Perley said. “It’s very good,” commissioner Theresa Kennett said. But other developments were less well received. Wagner told the commissioners that the state had announced how much money towns would get in 2011 to cover costs associated with changes to the municipal retirement system. The Conway Police Department, he said, will get $5,191. That pales in comparison to the $27,000 the department expected. “We’re short $22,000,” commissioner Rodney King said. That money, combined with $15,000 in vacation and sick-time buyback the department is expecting to have to pay to two officers who are leaving, puts the department $37,000 over budget. The commission already asked the selectmen to get permission from the Department of Revenue Administration to overspend this year. “We have started the process,” town manager Earl Sires said, but it still has several steps to go through. “The budget committee will need to consider this request and make a recommendation in early October.”

On May 24: breakfast at 8 a.m. followed by a 10 a.m. visit to the Independence Seaport Museum. At noon, the students will be bused to Reading Market for lunch. At 1:30 p.m., the bus will depart for Conway, arriving at the school at approximately 11:30 p.m. "The trip will allow for students to experience the history of our nation's first capital," the overnight field trip proposal submitted by Richard states. "It will be an opportunity for students to see, feel and learn about our government, history and people. "The trip is well coordinated with the eighth grade curriculum," the proposal continues. "The U.S. History and Language Arts programs integrate the Philadelphia trip with a number of activities and learning opportunities. Students spend a great deal of time prior to the trip learning about the historical significance of one of our founding cities. The trip is the culminating event for students in the eighth grade. This will be the 20th year of visiting one of our nation's most significant cities." At $700 per student to go to Washington DC, it would require $101,500 in fund-raising while the trip to Philadelphia will require $52,200 in fundraising for the students. "We looked at New York, Philadel-
phia and Boston as alternatives to DC," Richard said. "There's a lot of historical significance to Philadelphia. In the conversation we had (with parents over the summer), the kids were more likely to go down to Boston on their own with their families than go to Philadelphia. In order to give the students a much bigger taste of the world, Philadelphia was chosen. Would I love the trip to still be to Washington DC? You bet." Klement wondered if the Washington DC trip could be scaled back a day and that savings would still make the venture more financially appealing. "We took things out of the (DC) itinerary and it was still $650 per student," Richard said. "If a number of people got together over the next month and wrote 20 checks for $1,000, would you reconsider (DC)," Klement asked. Richard said the trip essentially has to be ironed out and booked by Oct. 1. "I think Philadelphia is a great second choice," board member Randy Davison said. "I went there and it made me want to watch (the movie) 'National Treasure' so many times. There's so many things for the kids to do like run up the stairs to the Rocky Balboa statue. I'm sure it'll be a great adventure." Fellow board member Syndi White appreciated the school looking out for the parents' wallets. "It can be such a burden on parents," she said. "There are some parents who have five children (in this school) system." Klement wondered if New York City and a tour of Ground Zero might have more of an impact on the students from an educational standpoint. "It's their Pearl Harbor," he said. "Three thousand people got killed by a whack job, it's significant." The board ultimately approved the trip 6-1 with Klement in the minority.

Locke chosen for cover of Conway town report BY LLOYD JONES THE CONWAY DAILY SUN
CONWAY — It's not the cover of Sports Illustrated — yet. Three days after making his Major League pitching debut for the Pittsburgh Pirates, the Conway Board of Selectmen bestowed another honor on Redstone's Jeff Locke. He'll be on the cover of the town report next spring. Selectmen voted unanimously 5-0 on Monday to put Locke on the cover, making him the second consecutive athlete to grace the front of the annual report. Leanne Smith, who skied for the United States in the Winter Olympics, is on the cover of the current report. Selectman Larry Martin made the motion and drew an immediate second from colleague Mike DiGregorio. "I figure we went with Leanne last year when she made the Olympics and now that Jeff has just taken the big step in his career to make it to The Show, I feel we should recognize him as well," Martin said. "I brought it up now because the cover can fill up quickly. We're all proud of Jeff and wish him well." Martin's son, Ryan, played at Kennett High with Locke for three years, and the two were also on the same Babe Ruth League team growing up. Martin was a standout speedy shortstop for the Eagles. Locke and his parents, Pam and Alan, of Redstone, were delighted to hear the news from selectmen. Martin called them Monday night with the news.

"That was very nice of them," Pam said. "I know Jeff was surprised and pleased." Locke, 23, and Smith, 24, are both Kennett High graduates and both grew up in Conway. "They've both worked extremely hard at their crafts to get where they are today," Martin said. "Our community should be very proud of them both." Locke made his first Major League start for the Pittsburgh Pirates Sept. 10, facing the Florida Marlins before a crowd of 34,063 at PNC Park in Pittsburgh. He pitched five solid innings for the Pirates, allowing three runs while scattering five hits, walking four and recording hid first big league strikeout. Locke had 14 family members at the game, and many proudly wore "Redstone Rocket" T-shirts to recognize the lone two-time New Hampshire Player of the Year. The Pirates, as is their custom, fly out the family of players when they make their Major League debuts. Smith is a former member of the Cranmore Race Team, the University of N.H.

Thomson resigns as GOP chair to campaign for Perry BY DAYMOND STEER THE CONWAY DAILY SUN
FREEDOM -- Maynard Thomson has stepped down Carroll County Republican Committee chairman so that he can join Texas Governor Rick Perry’s presidential campaign. Party rules require Thomson to resign as chairman in order to support a candidate in the primary. He is also resigning from the county committee in order to devote his political time to Perry’s campaign. Thomson is joining Perry’s New Hampshire Steering Committee. Thomson says he was drawn to Perry’s concern about the sustainability of entitlement programs. Perry has been the most forthright candidate about the problem, according to Thomson. see next page
Three arrests made, 438 cars stopped during sobriety checkpoint in Conway BY ERIK EISELE THE CONWAY DAILY SUN
CONWAY — Police arrested three people, handed out 20 warnings and stopped 483 cars at a sobriety checkpoint on Route 16 last weekend. The checkpoint was running from 9 p.m. on Sept. 10 to 3 a.m. on Sept. 11 near the Fox Ridge Hotel. It had been authorized by a court order out of Carroll County Superior Court. Officers conducted 15 field sobriety tests, according to a statement. Only one person failed. The three arrests were: John Dunlap, 40, of Natick, Mass., on charges of driving after suspension and child restraint violation; Tanner Vancoesant, 17, of North Conway, on
charges of transportation and possession of a controlled drug; and William Inman, 55, of Conway, on a charge of aggravated driving while intoxicated. All three were bailed and are due in court on Dec. 6. This was the fourth checkpoint Conway Police Department had conducted in the last four years, according to the statement. It was funded largely by a grant from the New Hampshire Highway Safety Agency. “As in years past,” the statement said, “the many taxis, designated drivers and pedestrians present that evening were solid evidence that sobriety checkpoints are a proven method of education, prevention and apprehension in the fight against impaired driving.”
Lawmakers again consider expanded gambling CONCORD — As Massachusetts moves closer to allowing casino gaming, a new effort is under way in New Hampshire to beat the Bay State to the punch. After several failed attempts over the years to allow expanded gambling in New Hampshire, various new ideas are on the table in Concord. Supporters of expanded gambling said the state stands to lose millions of dollars

“Perry recognizes the risk that Medicare and Social Security benefits will be unavailable to those who need

Mother of Celina Cass desperate for answers WEST STEWARTSTOWN — The mother of an 11-year-old girl whose body was found a week after she disappeared from her West Stewartstown home said Tuesday that she’s desperate for answers. Celina Cass was reported missing in July, and her body was pulled out of the Connecticut River on Aug. 1. The girl’s mother and stepfather said they put her to bed one night, and the next morning, she was gone. Since then, an autopsy has come back inconclusive, and no arrests have been made. Investigators said they are still waiting for toxicology reports to come back. In an exclusive interview with WMUR News 9’s Amy Coveno, her mother, Louisa Cass, said she wants to know what happened.

license would be up for bid in a couple of years. But instead of millions of dollars in revenue being generated for the state’s general fund, House Ways and Means Committee member Rep. Steve Stepenak. R-Milford, said he believes the money should be used only to lower taxes on New Hampshire businesses. “Which is important, especially for the business enterprise tax, because that impacts every small business in the state, which is our lifeblood,” he said. Another suggestion would be to direct money to other areas, such the Department of Transportation and the Interstate 93 widening project, or put it toward education. It’s unclear whether the new ideas and the pressure from Massachusetts will be enough to give expanded gambling new life in New Hampshire.
“Answers,” she said. “Why would someone do what they did? She didn’t deserve it. She didn’t do anything to anyone.” Those who knew Celina said she was “Mommy’s girl.” “I remember sitting in the chair with her and rocking her,” her mother said. “And then the next morning after I came to work, I get a phone call, and she was gone.” She never saw her daughter again. After Celina’s body was found in the river, Louisa Cass was advised that it would be best if she didn’t see her daughter’s body. “I go to the cemetery every week,” she said. “I talk to her. I want her to come and tell me what happened so we know.” — Courtesy WMUR
“I hope so, because we’ve explored all the revenue sources, and we don’t want to increase taxes,” said Rep. Ken Weyler, R-Kingston. Opponents to video slots and table games said they will continue to fight the proposals. “It’s promises of free money from nowhere,” said Jim Rubens of the Coalition Against Expanded Gambling. “The problem is the money does come from our existing economy. It comes out of our families’ pockets. It comes from kids’ education funds, businesses that have been embezzled.” Republican legislative leaders said they plan to thoroughly discuss each idea. Hearings next week are expected to focus on the effect Massachusetts casinos would have on New Hampshire. Gov. John Lynch is on record saying he is skeptical of the benefits video slots would bring to New Hampshire. — Courtesy WMUR

Search engine optimization BY LISA OAKS A friend of mine was wondering why his site didn’t pop up at the top of a Google search. Rather than listen to me rattle off the list of links he should have to his site to create organic traffic, he signed up for Google Ad Words and voila, problem solved. I reminded him that they charge for that but he was so excited to see his name at the top of the page he didn’t care. That’s the quick and easy way to solve the search ranking problem! Since my friend was smart enough to sign up for Ad Words, I’ll assume that his site is indexed, that he has analytics and keywords on his site, and knows about Google Webmaster Tools. Here is another way to optimize your position in a Google search using links from other sights. First you need to go to the local search sites. Top ones are Google Places, Yahoo and Bing. Check that your Lisa Oaks address is right. Read the reviews. If you don’t have any, ask someone to write one. On Google Places you can enhance your page with photos and videos. Be sure to add a caption to your images. A picture may be worth a thousand words, as the saying goes, but in the world of search engine optimization (SEO) it needs the written description too! Next check the location based and review sites. The most popular are Yelp, FourSquare, Trip Advisor, Gowalla, Google Latitude and Citysearch. Check the map, check the reviews. On Yelp you can add an owner’s comment to a review. On Citysearch you can add a photo. Social bookmarking sites can help get the word out. These are sites such as StumbleUpon, Reddit, Digg and Delicious. How do they work? StumbleUpon, for example, “uses ratings to form collaborative opinions on website quality. When you stumble, you will only see pages that friends and like-minded stumblers have recommended. This helps you discover great content you probably wouldn’t find using a search engine.” These services are really very helpful and fun but can also be very distracting! And then comes the image sites. YouTube is by far the most popular. Vimeo is another video site. Create an account, make a channel for your business, and upload some videos. My friend who asked about his search ranking has an auto detailing shop. He could make videos on how to properly clean a car, feature a television commercial if he’s had one done, show the start to end of a detailing, and use supplier/product videos. Photo sites that are widely used include Photobucket, Flickr from Yahoo and Googles’s Picasa. My friend could upload his before-andafter pictures to one of these sites. Always put a caption on the image, write a description, and use tag words. Coupon sites have a huge presence on the Internet. We have a few locally including The
Challenging times for the valley’s independently-owned restaurants The parking lot is empty at Up Country Family Restaurant and Tavern, which closed Sept. 5. (JAMIE GEMMITI PHOTO)
BY TOM EASTMAN THE CONWAY DAILY SUN
CONWAY — What's up with the Up Country? That's been a familiar refrain around the valley since Labor Day, Sept. 5, the day that the Up Country Family Restaurant and Tavern closed its doors. Long a landmark on the northern end of the Route 16 strip across from the Red Jacket, the restaurant was purchased in July 2005 by W & K Derouin Associates LLC of North Conway, comprised of Wayne and Karen Derouin of North Conway from EPP Associates Inc. Wayne Derouin is a former North Conway Fire Department fire chief. The couple resides in North Conway. The establishment was long operated by Gene
Pelzar, believed to be the principal in EPP Associates Inc. Karen Derouin worked for Pelzar, say longtime Up Country patrons. Messages left at the restaurant and on the Derouins' cell phone number were not returned. Last Wednesday, a recorded phone company message said the restaurant's phone number is no longer in working order. A Facebook message sent to a Eugene Pelzar for comment was not returned. The parking lot has been empty since Labor Day. A visit to the site Sept. 13 showed no sign of business — but there were no signs posted, and a look through the windows revealed nothing unusual. ‘Where the Valley Meets’ Known as “the Place Where the Valley Meets,” see RESTAURANTS page 14
'Sweet Maple Cafe' to open at former Chinook Cafe site BY TOM EASTMAN THE CONWAY DAILY SUN
CONWAY — The recently-purchased, former Chinook Cafe is undergoing renovations and is slated to open in mid-November as the Sweet Maple Cafe, say new owners Danette and Tim Talbot, owners of the nearby Valley Jewelers of Main Street in Conway. The Talbots bought the building at a recent foreclosure auction. It had been closed for a year, vacated by former owner Laurel Tessier. Despite the economically challenging times, Danette Talbot says she is optimistic about her new restaurant.

the Up Country served lunch and dinner. It was home to a dart league and was known for its large screen televisions and access to sports networks, including NFL football. The NFL football season got under way a week after the restaurant closed. It also was known for its DJ and live music weekend entertainment, as well as karaoke. “I was told that the staff was brought together on Monday [Labor Day] and they were told that's it, that they were done,” said a veteran bartender from another local establishment. A spokesperson for the N.H. Office of Employment Security Wednesday would not confirm whether former employees have filed for unemployment, saying that information is confidential.

thing from working in the kitchen, to bartending and hosting. I have worked the last 20 years for Hannaford, training and managing associates. Along with great food, I feel that customer service is very important, especially in a small community, as it will keep customers coming back,” said Danette. “I think you need to focus on the tourist community as well as locals to give them the best service around,” she added. She said she plans to join the Mount Washington Valley Chamber of Commerce and will be part of the business community.
Seavey Street in North Conway closed in midJune. Campbell — former owner/operator of Fandangle's, which burned in 2007 — confirmed the closing but did not know further details. “All I know is [the Up Country] is closed. I don't know the facts aside from that, and that it is something that had been considered for a while,” said Campbell. He said it is a tough time for independents to be in business. “The climate is not good for independent restaurants. It's been tough for 10 to 15 years — the independents used to outnumber the chains, but now it's the other way around,” said Campbell. “They have a huge amount of marketing power, and if one does poorly they have others that do well that can pick the other one up, which is a tribute to them.” He said the Valley Originals compete by offering original dining, while offering members cooperative advertising programs and some food buying benefits. see next page

“As a group,” he said, “we try to help one another.” He and fellow Valley Originals member Terry O'Brien of the Red Parka Pub gave credit to the Derouins and all members of the organization for giving back to the community. “Karen and Wayne were very supportive of local sports, especially the Kennett High hockey and football teams. They made a lot of improvements at the bar and restaurant, and it's a shame. They gave back to the community heavily, but you reach a point in business where it doesn't make sense, where it doesn't work anymore,” said Campbell. Added O'Brien, whose late father, Dewey Mark, co-founded the Valley Originals with Campbell, “We are really sad to lose another independent restaurant that gave back so much to the community. It's a tough business to be in and this economy is certainly not helping anyone.” Campbell and O'Brien both said that like everyone, restaurants are dealing with increased food costs in a challenging economy when patrons may not be able to afford to go out as much as they would like. “You've got to be cost effective but you've also got to do the volume and that is really hard now. Our costs are up, and people are not spending as much when they go out,” said O'Brien, a former president of the New Hampshire Restaurant and Hospitality Association. “You have to come up with items that people want, and be cost effective at the same time.” She said the Red Parka had a strong summer for the most part. “It was pretty good for most of us, but it's a crap shoot — you have to
pay attention to a lot of stuff,” she said. Coming up next is foliage season. “And that's basically a short season; and then you're into November and that will be the kicker. All you can do is keep loving up the locals and give them a reason to come in, running specials when you can — anything to get them in the doors, and to stay active to stay visible,” said O'Brien. She said the Valley Originals long has believed in giving back to the community through sponsorships of local high sports and organizations such as Jen's Friends. Her restaurant recently founded a relief fund for victims of Tropical Storm Irene in the Glen-Bartlett area. “It's important [to stay involved in the community] because those of us who have been here a long time know the benefit of being a part of a community that we live in. The locals tell visitors about us when they tell them where to go to eat — the locals are the ones who keep us open,” said O'Brien. ‘Tough climate’ David Cianciolo, a commercial and residential real estate broker at Badger Realty, concurred that it is a tough time for the restaurant business, locally and nationally. “Of the approximately 86 restaurants in the entire valley, there s probably only 15 that are making a profit, and another 15 who are getting by and perhaps 45 to 50 that are struggling. The bottom 25 percent are on the edge of closing at any time. There has not been a restaurant sale in the valley for quite some time,” said Cianciolo, whose first see RESTAURANTS page 17

RESTAURANTS from page 15
commercial sale was in 1976, when he sold what was then Robert's Restaurant on Main Street in North Conway Village to Ben Williams and Brian Glynn, founders of Horsefeathers. That restaurant is now owned by David Peterson, also owner of the Wildcat Tavern of Jackson and Decades, the latter of which closed in midJune. “I would say that of those 86 local restaurants,” said Cianciolo, “probably 15 are for sale. But usually what happens, people make the decision to sell when things are beyond the point where they can sell it — in other words, the only time that a business has any real value, when it is most attractive, is when it is doing decent business. Once that changes, and business falls, they have missed the opportunistic window to sell to be able to get the price they wanted.” The odds of making it are always challenging — more so in a tough economy, says Cianciolo. Fellow commercial Realtor Earle Wason of Wason Hospitality Group agreed with that assessment. “It is a tough business,” said Wason, who is based in Freedom and Portsmouth. “It often depends on such things as creativity, and hands-on management; how much the owner is on the premises and seeing to details.” He said he has one local restaurant under agreement, and may soon have more news about others, including the Eagle Mountain House in Jackson and the former Fandangle's site in North Conway. Some recent transactions have allowed new owners to take over restaurants at foreclosure sales, thus improving their overall bottom lines. McGrath's Tavern is an example. The restaurant was purchased by the McGrath family in what was the Wild Boar in North Conway. “Seammus (McGrath) got that with his father for $245,000 at auction along with back taxes, which was a good price,” said Cianciolo. At a bank sale last month, the former Chinook Cafe was sold at auction for $135,000. The price six years ago, according to Cianciolo, would have been $250,000 to $300,000. It is not known whether the purchaser intends to run it as a restaurant or to use the property for another venture. “Food costs are up. People cannot afford to go out as often, as that is discretionary income, and who has that these days? The local economy and the restaurants are taking it on the chin,” said Cianciolo. It's always a challenging business, he said. “You look at New York City — even with a population of 12 million people,” said Cianciolo, “one in 10 restaurants make it there the first five years; nine out of 10 don't. That's a frightful statistic.” Campbell, of Valley Originals, disagreed with Cianciolo's outlook on how many of the valley's 86 restaurants may be in trouble, but he acknowledged it was a challenging time for many. “I disagree with David [about how many restaurants may be in trouble] — I do know, however, that everybody is working hard to make it happen,” said Campbell. Recent developments In other local restaurant developments, Bellini's has moved back to its former location on Seavey Street in North Conway Village from Willow Common. That former site on Route 16 is now home to a new restaurant, Smoke and Water, which is operated by the Hill family, which also operates Hill'sTop BBQ in Glen. Two Black Dogs Country Pub is another new restaurant, located on Reporter Court at the former site of the Back Alley Cafe. In other restaurant news, in a letter to the editor that was published in Thursday's Sun, owners David and Susan Dube announced they were closing their restaurant, Lazy Susan's, in Center Ossipee, effective Sept. 18. “What a great run, but it is what it is and again, thanks,” wrote the Dubes, who said they reached their decision “with saddened hearts.”
Green Team to present 'Funergy Fest' Sept. 24 CONWAY — The Mount Washington Valley Green Team is set to present its second annual Family Funergy Festival on Saturday, Sept. 24, at Cranmore Mountain Resort in North Conway, with a full slate of kid-friendly activities and green living exhibits and demonstrations running from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. This free event is a family friendly, hands-on investigation of energy and resource conservation. In addition to exhibits and demonstrations featuring alternative energy, energy conservation, and other environmentally friendly themes, the day's events are set to include such activities as making s'mores in a solar oven, investigating layers of soil in a soil pit, and fun, exploration games for younger kids. The event is also set to feature the Nike Sneaker Fling, in which participants can bring in their old sneakers for recycling, try their hand at the sneaker toss, and learn how sneakers can be recycled into such
things as gymnasium floors. The Family Funergy Festival is supported by Public Service of New Hampshire and Green Team Charter Sponsor Cormack Construction Management Inc. A committee of the Mount Washington Valley Preservation Association in affiliation with the Mount Washington Valley Chamber of Commerce, the Mount Washington Valley Green Team was developed to act as a catalyst to facilitate, educate, promote and encourage sustainable green business practices that will lead to positive, measurable business, community, and environmental results. The Green Team is supported by Charter Sponsor Cormack Construction Management Inc.

Brownfield jeweler goes to the dogs Economic times drive local jeweler to reinvent herself; Silver Paw Pet Tags launches a new line of stainless steel pet ID tags at the Fryeburg Fair and Bark in the Park Brownfield jeweler Karen Twombly isn’t giving up. With 19 years of business under her belt and gold and silver prices through the roof, Twombly is reinventing herself. "I’ve had plenty of time, sitting at shows, to ponder the fate of jewelry in a less than thriving economy," she said. Spurred on by her trusty canine companions, Ruby and Jet, her new business, Silver Paw Pet Tags, will debut Twombly’s stainless steel ID tags at Fryeburg Fair this year. Proud of her made-in-Maine product, Twombly’s tags address a niche market need. “There really aren’t many pet ID tag companies making really durable, attractively designed ID tags," she said. "They’re mostly just plain, boring blanks of metal, stamped out in China, too soft to hold up to the abrasion they receive.” Twombly tried other metals but heralds stainless steel as the only material worthy of her tags and points out its benefits as well as its drawbacks. “I’m just lucky to have access to a foundry in Hiram, Maine. I searched and searched, then couldn’t believe they were there right in my own backyard!” Stainless is the hardest, strongest, and most non-corrosive metal there is, according toTwombly. “Wonderful for tags!" she notes, “but a really tough
surface to finish well and engrave. You need lots of finishing grits and a strong machine to rout out lines for engraving. It’s not enough to just displace the metal.” With silver prices at $40 an ounce, Twombly purchased a computerized rotary engraving machine with the proceeds from an accumulated 18 pounds of sterling silver scrap. “I couldn’t believe my eyes when I weighed out my scrap," she said. "I paid $4 an ounce once upon a time. The public doesn’t get it when I pass the cost of silver on in my work these days. We’re competing with silver work outside the country, and it’s impossible to survive on that.” Ironically, it’s high silver prices that have enabled Twombly to purchase new equipment to start up Silver Paw. Twomby’s tags first retailed in May of 2011. Thanks to her website, demand is growing. Fryeburg Fair marks the introduction of small pet tags and equine tags to her existing large tag line. She’s excited. “Everyone has been anxiously awaiting the small tags," she said. "Can’t forget about the little guys!” see next page

Renovations planned at Cranmore fitness center CONWAY — Cranmore Mountain plans changes to the Cranmore Family Fitness Center that officials say will result in more equipment, new programs and a larger fitness facility for its more than 600 members. Cranmore is making an investment in the club in the amount of over $180,000, placing more emphasis on the specific fitness and wellness amenities at the facility. The facility is also being renamed and will now be known as "Cranmore Fitness." Top at the list of improvements is $47,000 in new cardio equipment and changing the club layout to include a larger weight room and the valley’s first “Functional Training Facility,” highlighted by TRX suspension training. The new layout will separate the club from the winter Mountain Adventure Park ticketing and cafeteria areas. To accommodate this new layout, Cranmore will be reallocating the space previously used by two of its indoor tennis courts. The club's cardio
equipment now will include: seven Star Trac Treadmills; four Star Trac Total Body Trainers.; ne Cybex Arc Trainer; Nautilus and Star Trac Recumbent Bikes; Stair Master Step Mill; Stair Master Stair Climbers; Concept 2 Rowers; full Nautilus Circuit; premium Spinning Studio including 10 new Spinner Pro bikes. The club will be relocating the weight room to what is now part of its indoor tennis court area (courts 1 and 2). This move will allow for a much larger space and for the addition of an indoor functional training area, featuring the TRX Suspension System and other functional training programs, according to Cranmore president and general manager Ben Wilcox. The former weight room will be used for cafeteria seating for the winter Mountain Adventure Park operations, with a new entrance way installed to separate that operation from the club. The new layout will also create a social area to offer seating for members. The area will be used to host a weekly
series of special events, seminars and talks on topics related to health, wellness and fitness. Cranmore Fitness will continue to offer the only indoor tennis courts in the area with two indoor tennis courts, including tennis lessons, drills, socials, adult camps, beginner lessons, tournaments and court rentals, according to Wilcox. Starting in November, Cranmore will set up an indoor activity center by moving several of the attractions from its summer park indoors. The activity center will operate on weekends and holiday periods. Renovations to the facility will be beginning immediately and are scheduled to be completed by the end of October. Cranmore Fitness will have no interruptions to its operations during the renovation. The public will be invited to an open house to see all the improvements on Nov. 5.

West Lovell Conversations at historical society Sept. 24 On Sept. 11, the congregation of United Church of Christ accepted the Rev. Alison Andres Jacobs as their Pastor. Before the formal installation the Rev. Darren L. Morgan gave an interesting sermon about the use of words. He told the congregation that words if used correctly can gain great benefits. Words use wrongly can cause great hurt sort of a warning to think before you speak. Following the sermon Bob Williams acting for the members of the church requested that the Reverend Jacobs be installed as the church’s pastor. In a joyful ceremony, members of the Oxford-Union Association of the Maine Conference of the United church of Christ installed Reverend Jacobs in as Pastor of the church.
M
Many of the people taking part in the ceremony are friends of Pastor Jacobs so the installation was one of great pride and love for those taking part. Following the installation there was a wonderful lunch in celebration in the vestry put on by the Fellowship Committee and the Deacons. In Charlotte Hobbs Memorial Library news the One World, Many Stories summer reading club was a huge success with over 163 children from ages 2 to 12 taking part. Prizes were awarded for every three chapters read on their own or for every 10 picture books read to them. Each child received a free ice cream voucher which was generously donated by the Center Lovell Market. Part of the party was the

children experiencing a special Chewonki Program “One Forest, Many Stories” when the children and adults can wander the woods and learn all about the wonders that happen which can’t always be seen. They’ll explore nature history and folklore and the animals that inhabit these areas. After the program the group finished by using their imagination by creating a story of life in the forest. The library would like to thank the Lovell Land Trust for sponsoring this program for the children. Books are still important. There are two very interesting future programs planned for the Library starting in October. The Maine Humanities Council is again sponsoring an adult discussion series starting on Monday Oct. 17 in which those taking part will have the opportunity to read and discuss Defining Wilderness: Defining Maine. Books for this series are available at the Library. Then on Saturday on Oct. 22 from 9 a.m. to noon Joan Lee Hunter will be holding a writing workshop. There is no fee for this event but registration is required to control the class size. On Sept. 24 the Lovell Historical Society will hold a “West Lovell Conversations” starting at 1 p.m. at the Kimball-Stanford House. Taking part in the conversation will be brother and sister, Albert Stearns and Marcia Hamlin, who grew up in the area on their parents Esther and Marcus’s farm. Another participant will be Byron Shaw who also grew up in the area having lived on Foxboro Road. Byron is known for having worked in many of the mills in the area. The final speaker is Ron Leavitt who has been al long time student of the area though not growing up there. There is nothing better then listening to people reminisces of the early life in Lovell when life was harder but much simpler. This event is open to the public and discussion is hoped for. Refreshments will be served. see next page

William Henry Bussiere
William Henry Bussiere, 66, died Sept. 15, 2011. He was born Feb. 11, 1945 in Balston Spa, N.Y. to parents Douglas and Gladys (Keane) Bussiere. He died in his home after battling cancer since February. He joined the U.S. Navy and served from 1962 to 1965 mostly aboard the USS Henry B. Wilson. In the early 1970s he moved to Kezar Falls, ME and worked as a supervisor at the woolen mill. Living in Kezar Falls gave him the opportunity to work as a farrier, go horseback riding and enjoy sleigh rides with friends. In 1994 he moved to Freedom and in 1997 he married Kathy Haley McVitty. Bill liked anything having to do with cars, whether is be racing, shows or just tinkering on them. He loved riding his Kawasaki motorcycle and taking vacations wherever the weather was warm. One special trip he took was in August 2010 to Sturgis, South Dakota. As family and friends

Fleas Pet Care
I would like to introduce myself as your new columnist, my name is Karla Schwarz, I have specialized in the care of animals for over 30 years, 26 of them being right here in the Mount Washington Valley. I thought it might be wonderful for myself, and perhaps I will recruit others in the pet care industry field to share with you valuable, or maybe just interesting information about animals and their care. This beginning article is about fleasas we are now in the height of flea season. Many people believe that flea season is in the hot summer months. Fleas actually are at their worst right now, when the nights start to get cold. The survival instinct on these little creatures is in full force, and every time your pet goes out, the "little buggers" are looking for his/her warm body to jump on in order to survive, and multiply, of course. If you notice that your pet is scratching, don't let it go, not now, because eradicating fleas from your home is way worse than a simple flea bath now. To check for fleas on your pet, start by parting the hair at the base of the tail a few inches up. Look for black specks that look like pepper, this is what we in the field, call "flea dirt"
Karla Schwartz but it is actully flea "poop." And a way to be sure what it is? Touch it with water, it will turn into blood, your pet's blood. You can also roll your pet over and check the thinner hair in the abdominal region. If you found the fleas — little brown guys than run real fast and jump incredibly far — leave them, for now. Do not try to pick them off in your home. Go as fast as you can to the groomer, or the pet supply store, and get a flea shampoo for your pet. Most flea shampoos on the market, if you are doing this yourself, need to set a few minutes, after you get a good lather all over (and under) Rinse, rinse, and rinse some more, you can cause more skin damage than what the the fleas cause by not rinsing the shampoo out well enough. There are what we call "spot products" on the markets now that help in good measure in prevention of fleas, but are not really an adequate "cure" once your pet has fleas. The discomfort is there, eggs have been laid in the carpet of your home, and there is much to do to eradicate them. It is best to use Frontline, Advantix, and the others before the problem arises, for less hassle. So, let's say you just had that flea bath for your pet, the best way to know if the fleas are already in your home is to wait a few days and look for them again. If they are back, you have to prepare for battle. Another flea bath is in order, for this pet, and any other in the household (yes the cats too). On the same day, the pets will be flea bathed, the house has to be treated for fleas. You can call the

TOWN OF CONWAY
The Conway Board of Selectmen will hold three consecutive Public Hearings on October 18, 2011, 4:05 p.m. at The Conway Town Offices, 1634 East Main Street, Center Conway, New Hampshire 03813. Community Development Block Grant funds are available to municipalities through the NH Community Development Finance Authority. Up to $500,000 annually is available on a competitive basis for economic development, public facility and housing projects, and up to $350,000 for emergency activities. Up to $12,000 is available for feasibility study grants. All projects must directly benefit a majority of low and moderate income persons. The public hearings will hear public comment on the following:
exterminator, who will guarantee their work. Or many folks take on the battle with foggers and sprays. Be sure if you are doing this, that you buy a reputable product. Don't waste your money on something that isn't going to work. Vacuum first, and throw away the bag. Then be sure you have the number of foggers you need for the square footage of your home. A fogger for each room the pet spends time in, certainly, and a premises spray for halls, closets, and other areas. Put a fogger on a chair, on a piece of newpaper, in the middle of the room, starting in the back of your home. Be sure all windows are closed, food and fish are covered. Set them off from back to front, in a hurry! Get out! For at least four hours or more. Do not vacuum after this process, most good foggers set down an insect growth regulator. The most difficult thing I have to tell you now is that you have to do this all again, yes, nothing kills the cocoon stage of the fleas life cycle, so wait 7 to 14 days and do it all again, yes the baths too. Then go ahead, and use your spot product, to try to prevent more new from reinfesting your pet and home. Go out and enjoy the fall foliage, remembering your pet isn't completely safe until a few hard frosts, perhaps even a layer of winter snow.

Robin Johnson ravenstone54@hotmail.com
Author series at performing arts center features Kathryn Stockett tonight Friend and member of the Fryeburg writers' group, June O’Donal, of Denmark, Maine, has recently published her new book, “The Amazing Grace,” the first in an ongoing series called “The Fryeburg Chronicles.” Set in colonial Fryeburg, it is the touching story of a homesteading family that loses a child to illness and takes another into their home and their lives. The Chronicles will be a series of historical fiction following the lives of the Miller family and their descendents as they experience local and national events. I want to take this opportunity to congratulate June on her accomplishment, and to let everyone know that she and I are planning a book signing at my shop, Ravenstone Antiques, on Saturday, Oct. 22, from noon to 4 p.m. Mark your calendars and join us for an afternoon of history and refreshments. Organized by a group of librarians and book-minded community members in 2006, One Book, One Valley is a community read program for the Mount Washington Valley area, similar to others offered around the country. Its mission is to strengthen community ties and promote literacy through reading and discussing a book with a theme that resonates locally. In order to enrich the book discussion experience, One Book, One Valley organizers also plan an author visit and programs that relate to the book in some way. This fall’s book is “Following Atticus” by local author Tom Ryan. Following Atticus is the remarkable true story of a man and a dog embarking on the challenge of a lifetime. This is author Tom Ryan’s inspiring tale of how he and his miniature schnauzer companion, the “Little Buddha” Atticus M. Finch, attempted to scale all 48 of New Hampshire’s 4,000 foot White Mountains twice in the dead of winter. It is a story of love, loss, and the resilience of the human and animal spirit. 2011 marks the sixth One Book, One Valley program. Its success is because of you, the individual reader, and you, the community of readers, coming together.

DAILY CROSSWORD TRIBUNE MEDIA SERVICES

DILBERT
by Scott Adams
By Holiday Mathis have a right to design your life in the way that seems most pleasing to you. Be careful not to put another person’s schedule and objectives ahead of your own. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). The way you show that you care is original. You’re not trying to be different, but you can’t help it. When you do what you really want to do, the results are so perfectly you. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). There will be plenty of strutting and posturing as people try to prove they belong to a certain social or political strata. You don’t feel compelled to prove a thing, which immediately sets you apart. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You have a solid sense about what concerns you and what does not. The best part is that you don’t have to delve too deeply into things to figure it out. Give your attention strictly to what pertains directly to you. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Even if you’re the only one who determines what is and is not appropriate for your life and schedule, it’s important that you stick to your own rules. When you’re not doing what you’re supposed to be doing, things go wrong. TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Sept. 21). This year you’ll take risks and eventually enjoy victory. You have a strategy for winning at work, and it will be most effective in October. In November, you’ll be honored with sweet words and a solid commitment. You’ll hustle and bustle through December to meet financial goals. In February, your talents are rewarded. Scorpio and Aquarius people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 4, 1, 24, 39 and 19.
Get Fuzzy
ARIES (March 21-April 19). Everything counts. One small shift will make you a different person. It’s too soon to tell where this will lead, but because of a slight directional change, you’re going somewhere different. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You’re into people. You want to hear their stories, connect with their goals, witness their dreams. You also want to just hang out with them in a low-key way. It feels good to connect. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You’ll be representing others, whether or not you consciously realize that’s what you’re doing. You’ll be associated with others from your family, company, race or creed. CANCER (June 22-July 22). You’ll be drawn to excellent storytellers, although you’ll be careful not to believe everything you’re told. Truth may be stranger than fiction, but fiction is often more flattering than truth. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You’d like to be a leader, but not a supreme overlord. Having greater stature will not translate into having more power. Your best position is to be “one of the people.” From there, you’ll understand the real issues, perks and problems. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Planning ahead for an event might be your saving grace. This requires more thought than simply how you’ll get there and what you’ll wear. Consider who will be there and what you’d like to talk about. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). There will be no need to apologize, so refrain. While you’re at it, this will be a great time to break yourself of the habit of saying “sorry” for minor actions that are not technically offensive at all. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You

SEPTEMBER 21, 2011

Today is Wednesday, Sept. 21, the 264th day of 2011. There are 101 days left in the year. Today’s Highlight in History: On Sept. 21, 1897, the New York Sun ran its famous editorial, written anonymously by Francis P. Church, that responded to a letter from 8-year-old Virginia O’Hanlon asking whether Santa Claus really existed. Church wrote, “Yes, Virginia, there is a Santa Claus. He exists as certainly as love and generosity and devotion exist, and you know that they abound and give to your life its highest beauty and joy.” On this date: In 1893, one of America’s first horseless carriages was taken for a short test drive in Springfield, Mass., by Frank Duryea, who had designed the vehicle with his brother, Charles. In 1937, “The Hobbit,” by J.R.R. Tolkien, was first published. In 1938, a hurricane struck parts of New York and New England, causing widespread damage and claiming some 700 lives. In 1970, “NFL Monday Night Football” made its debut on ABC-TV as the Cleveland Browns defeated the visiting New York Jets, 31-21. In 1981, the Senate unanimously confirmed the nomination of Sandra Day O’Connor to become the first female justice on the Supreme Court. In 1989, Hurricane Hugo crashed into Charleston, S.C. Twenty-one students in Alton, Texas, died when their school bus, involved in a collision with a soft-drink delivery truck, careened into a water-filled pit. In 1991, an 18-hour hostage drama ended in Sandy, Utah, as Richard L. Worthington, who’d killed a nurse and seized control of a hospital maternity ward, finally freed nine captives, including a baby who was born during the siege. One year ago: The mayor and ex-city manager of the Los Angeles suburb of Bell were among eight current and former city officials arrested in a corruption scandal that authorities said cost the blue-collar city more than $5.5 million in excessive salaries and illegal personal loans. Today’s Birthdays: Actor Karl Slover is 93. Actor Larry Hagman is 80. Poet-songwriter Leonard Cohen is 77. Author-comedian Fannie Flagg is 70. Producer Jerry Bruckheimer is 68. Author Stephen King is 64. Actor-comedian Bill Murray is 61. Actorcomedian Dave Coulier is 52. Actor David James Elliott is 51. Actress Serena ScottThomas is 50. Actress Nancy Travis is 50. Actor Rob Morrow is 49. Country singer Faith Hill is 44. Actress-talk show host Ricki Lake is 43. Actor Luke Wilson is 40. Actor Paulo Costanzo is 33. TV personality Nicole Richie is 30. Actress Maggie Grace is 28. Actor Joseph Mazzello is 28. Actors Lorenzo and Nikolas Brino (“7th Heaven”) are 13.

A SMILE GOES A LONG WAY TOWARD MAKING NEW FRIENDS
DEAR ABBY: When I was in middle school, I was pretty much an outcast. In the summer between eighth grade and high school, I read a Dear Abby column where you offered advice to someone who was shy like me. You recommended that the writer smile and greet people every day. You also published a booklet to help us to be more outgoing. When I got to high school, I took your advice. Your column changed my life. During my senior year I became involved in drama, choir and sports, and I was elected student body president. I am now a mom with two children. I hold a master’s degree and have a wide array of friends all over the world. I am a public speaker, poet and actor -- all bacause you wrote to someone like me and told that person how to make friends. Recently a friend and I were discussing that column, and he said, “I wish I had seen it!” Abby, please repeat those words and let people know if the booklet is still available. Folks of all ages need that message of friendship and guidance. Thank you for the impact it has had on my life. -- RENEE IN WASHINGTON DEAR RENEE: I’m pleased that my column was so helpful for you at a time when you needed it. I think I know the column you mentioned. The reply echoed advice that’s in my booklet “How to Be Popular.” It said: “No matter what you wear, the expression on your face is your greatest asset -- or liability. Would you want to strike up a conversation with someone who looks like he (or she) is mad at the world? Well, neither would anyone else. So, if you’re wearing a perpetual
frown, get rid of it. Trade it for a smile. “You can walk down the street in any foreign country in the world, and even though you may not be able to understand a word they’re saying, when you see a smile, you get a message. It’s the universal way of saying, ‘I’m friendly.’ “I’m not suggesting you go around with a perpetual phony grin pasted on your face, but try to develop the habit of looking cheerful, pleasant and happy. It attracts.” “How to Be Popular” was written in response to many thousands of letters from readers over the years who are not naturally socially assertive, and others who have asked for guidance on where and how to meet nice people like themselves, what to say or not to say, and how to be the kind of person others will find interesting, attractive and worth knowing better, and can be ordered by sending your name and address, plus check or money order for $6 (U.S. funds) to Dear Abby Popularity Booklet, P.O. Box 447, Mount Morris, IL 61054-0447. Shipping and handling are included in the price. Another important observation from the booklet that wasn’t in the column you saw is, “There are two kinds of people -those who come into a room and their attitude says, ‘Here I am!’ and those who come into a room and their attitude is, ‘There you are! “The ‘there-you-are’ type is the winner. If you want to receive a warm welcome, remember the happier you are to see others, the happier they’ll be to see you.”
Dear Abby is written by Abigail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips. Write Dear Abby at: Dear Abby, c/o The Conway Daily Sun, PO Box 1940, North Conway, NH 03860

Kennett golfers sweep the greens; improve to 8-6 –––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– SPORTS –––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––
BY LLOYD JONES THE CONWAY DAILY SUN
CONWAY — With less than two weeks remaining in the regular season the Kennett High golf team has put itself firmly in the playoff chase. Going into action Tuesday the Eagles had picked up four straight wins to improve to 8-6 and climbed to 10th in the competitive 25-school Division II standings. KHS was coming off a sweep on the road Friday where the boys from Conway posted a five golfer score of 220 to edge Oyster River, 221; ConVal, 223; and Merrimack Valley, 249. “It’s our first sweep,” Joe Soraghan, Eagles’ head coach, said. “The boys were sky-high after the match. All five of our boys shot between 40 and 45, they’re really playing well. To their credit, it was cold and windy, but they hung in there.”
The Eagles edged Oyster River in dramatic fashion. “John Brown was our last golfer on the course,” Soraghan said, “and we were down by a stroke to Oyster River. He finished his round and that was the difference, we won by one stroke.” Senior Robert Starkey was the Kennett’s medalist on the day carding a round of 40 for nine holes. “Robert is so solid,” Soraghan said. “He’s such a delight to have on the team, we know we can count on him.” Starkey and Brown along with Nathan Ela, Ben Garner and Quinn Duffy posted the scores KHS used to secure the victory. The Eagles were on the road at Kingswood (10-2) yesterday facing the Knights, Laconia (1-10) and Portsmouth (4-8). Results were not known as of

press time. Soraghan was hoping for positive results given it was the Eagles’ second time playing on the Kingswood course. After Tropical Storm Irene washed out Kennett’s opening home match, the Knights were gracious enough to agree to move the contest to Wolfeboro. The Eagles did get in one home match this season, playing at North Conway Country Club on Sept. 13. Kennett shot 214 to top Oyster River (6-6), 227, but fell by three shots to John Stark (8-3). Starkey shot a 39 to be Kennett’s medalist. Next up for the Eagles will be a match against Laconia, Plymouth (2-11) and Sanborn (4-8) on Tuesday. KHS is scheduled to close the book on the regular season Sept. 29 on the road against Portsmouth and Bishop Brady (6-5). “I’d like to see us get into the tournament (at Canterbury Woods),” Soraghan said. “As a team I think we definitely have a shot to qualify. These guys are all working hard and are playing their best golf right now.”
Hockey Eagles are fundraising; golf event Sunday CONWAY — Hockey season may be over two months away but for members of the Kennett High ice hockey team fund-raising season is already in full swing. The Eagles will be participating in a pair of fundraisers over the next few weeks to help defer playing expenses this winter. The Kennett hockey program is a pay to play program and must raise over $20,000 in order to run the program each year. The first event — the Fourth Annual Kennett High Hockey Golf Tournament — is set for this Sunday at Indian Mound Golf Club in Ossipee. There will be three divisions this year: Open, Co-Ed and Ladies. The golf tournament, will feature lunch at 11 a.m. followed by a noon shotgun start. The cost is $75 to pre-register and includes 18-holes of golf, a cart, lunch and post-round appetizers. The event will be held rain or shine. Anyone wishing to sign-up can do so by visiting the Indian Mound Website (www.indianmoundgc. com) or by stopping by Frechette Tire, located off West Side Road. Also, in the fund-raising ranks, on Oct. 1, it’ll be time once again for ladies and gentlemen to start their ducks! The state runner-up Eagles announced Tuesday that tickets for the Fourth Annual Duck Derby are now on sale from any player on the 2011-2012 team or by dropping in at Frechette Tire. Ducks will hit the river for a 15-minute race from the Old Swift River Covered Bridge in Conway to the Swift River Covered Bridge at Davis Park. It was among the biggest fund-raiser last season for the Eagles. The race is slated for Saturday morning, Oct. 1, and it will happen rain or shine. Prizes will be awarded to the top 10 ducks and the last. Tickets are $5 for one ticket or $20 for 5 tickets. All proceeds will benefit the Kennett Hockey Program. “We really are fortunate to have so many people and organizations who support us,” Michael Lane, Eagles’ head coach, said. “Frechette Tire and Jonathan Rivers at Indian Mound are all great to work with. These events should wrap up a very busy month for us in terms of fund-raising.” For more on the Eagles or registration forms for the golf tournament or purchase a ducky, please visit the team’s new Website: www.kennetteagleshockey.com
