Dead satellite’s fall becomes a phenomenon A dead hulk of a NASA satellite the size of a bus is skimming the top of the atmosphere, and as air molecules bounce off, its orbit is decaying until gravity finally pulls it down as a fiery meteor. To be specifi c, 26 large pieces of the Upper Atmosphere Research Satellite, the heaviest about 330 pounds, are expected to survive all the way and hit the surface. The debris will stretch along a 500-mile path. At the same time that NASA has been spewing out bland itinerary updates — by Wednesday evening, North America had been ruled out as a crash pad — the event has turned into a bit of a media and pop culture phenomenon. Just about every major news outlet started weighing in on the impending arrival. On Facebook, people were linking to news stories and adding their own ruminations, like “Wear a hardhat” and “Should we be concerned?” On Fox News, the anchor Shepard Smith dubbed Friday “Bus Day U.S.A.” and called the network’s coverage “the stupidest thing we’ve ever done.”

Palestinians request U.N. status; powers press for talks UNITED NATIONS — Shortly after President Mahmoud Abbas of the Palestinian Authority formally requested the Security Council to grant full United Nations membership on Friday, international powers reached an agreement on terms to restart talks between Israel and the Palestinians, diplomats and Obama administration officials said. Details of the understanding between the United States, the United Nations, the European Union and Russia, known as the Quartet, were due to be announced later on Friday. But
offi cials said they hoped the statement would lead to a new round of negotiations between Israel and the Palestinian leadership after many months of stalemate. Catherine Ashton, the European foreign policy chief, said the proposal did not try to solve the preconditions that both presidents have stated before and repeated Friday in their statements at the United Nations. The Palestinians have demanded a freeze on settlement expansion, for example, while Israel wants to be recognized as a Jewish state.
Shutdown closer as Senate blocks spending bill WASHINGTON — An impasse between the House and Senate over a bill to keep the government open after Sept. 30 and provide financial aid to natural disaster victims got worse on Friday as the Senate easily shot down a House bill passed in the early hours of Friday morning. House members, considering their work done, headed back to their districts for a week’s recess. The Senate adjourned for the weekend, planning to take the matter up again on Monday afternoon. The Senate vote was 59 to 36 to set aside the latest House bill, with a handful of conservative Republicans joining with Democrats to deliver a quick and decisive rejection.

Democrats oppose the House measure on the grounds that it does not provide enough relief for disaster victims, and because that relief was offset by spending cuts to other programs near and dear to them; conservatives appeared to feel their House colleagues had failed to cut deeply enough. The Senate action left Congress mired in an impasse with serious implications for the fi nancing of federal agencies. The House and Senate had been scheduled to begin a weeklong recess Friday. But without an agreement on a bill to pay for federal operations beginning Oct. 1, the government would run out of money before lawmakers returned unless some resolution was found.
Global arms sales dropped sharply in 2010, study finds
WASHINGTON — The global economic crisis may set off upheaval and even unrest, but the ability of the world’s governments to buy new military hardware was sharply curtailed last year by strains on their national treasuries, according to a new Congressional study. Worldwide arms sales in 2010 totaled $40.4 billion, a drop of 38 percent from the $65.2 billion in arms deals signed in 2009 and the lowest total since 2003, the study found. Even in this tight market, the United States maintained its dominating position in the global arms bazaar, signing $21.3 billion in worldwide arms sales, or 52.7 percent of all weapons deals, a drop from $22.6 billion in 2009. Russia ranked second with $7.8 billion in arms sales in 2010, or 19.3 percent of the market, compared with $12.8 billion in 2009. Following the United States and Russia in global sales were France, Britain, China, Germany and Italy. Developing nations continued to be the primary focus of foreign arms sales, according to the report.

No easy fix to the state’s retiremement system BY TOM FAHEY The Union Leader
CONCORD — Lawmakers are trying to tie up $6 million in loose ends left by reform of the New Hampshire Retirement System this summer, but money is tighter than ever. A proposed bill to give towns, schools and other public employers a $6 million credit on pension payments would be unconstitutional, NHRS legal counsel Andrew Schulman said. If lawmakers pass the plan in House Bill 654, they face either another court challenge over the retirement system, or making cuts beyond the $35 million they’re already working on. The Legislature this year made a series of changes aimed at saving taxpayers money on pensions. NHRS has 76,000 active and retired members from the ranks of police, teachers, firefi ghters and other public workers. One change stripped power from unions that once held the majority of seats on the NHRS board of trustees. Before outgoing trustees left offi ce, they made an early change in the earnings forecast for the system, cutting the projected rate of return. That meant higher contribution rates for employers and extra money for the pension fund, which was underfunded by $3.7 billion. The reform law ordered the new board to reverse that change. The board complied, a move unions now say increased the unfunded liability to $4.2 billion. During the one month the lower earnings projection was in effect, employers had to send $6 million more than they expected to the state retirement system. Now Rep. Shawn Jasper, R-Hudson, wants to get that money back. He said the Legislature promised not to down-
shift state expenses onto local communities. He said his bill, HB 654, is a way to keep that promise. The bill would order the NHRS to give employers a credit equal to the extra they paid in during July. That would save the state about $1.9 million and towns and schools $4.1 million. NHRS voted unanimously last week to oppose the bill. Schulman told NHRS there were no overpayments because everything that happened was done under the law at the time. The reform law ordered the board to deal with the rates “as soon as possible” after its appointment, and it followed that order. HB 654 tampers with NHRS fi nances in a way that would violate the protections the state constitution gives it, Schulman said. Members of a committee considering HB 654 on Thursday said if the bill passes and repayment can’t come from the pension fund, that would mean budget cuts beyond the $35 million the House has started seeking to cover a federal Medicaid penalty. Jasper argued that if lawmakers understood in June that their communities might not get back the overpayments, “you would have had a different legislative outcome,” on the reform package. The NHRS last week voted to drop its lawsuit challenging the law that directed the board to recertify the earnings rates at issue in HB 654. The same issue continues to be challenged in a lawsuit unions have brought. The New Hampshire Retirement Security Coalition criticized the board’s action on the lawsuit. David Lang, president of the Professional Firefi ghters of New Hampshire, called the actions “an abhorrent misuse of power.”

UNH first college in the nation to adopt new 3-D movie technology BY LILY O’GARA The Union Leader
University of New Hampshire and Durham movie-lovers have a new reason to rejoice, as the Memorial Union Building is now offering 3-D movie viewing. Traditionally, the theaters located on the third fl oor show features in fi lm, but MUB Theater II has made the leap to digital presentation and, most recently, to 3-D. It is expected that Theater I will follow suit in five to 10 years. Ken Barrows, assistant director for operations in the MUB, explained that the industry in general is progressing away from the use of fi lm and that, when the decision was made to convert to digital, the university decided to take the “small jump” to 3-D as well. With the aid of a scanner that can convert any digital format into a large, high quality image, the new device can do it all. The MUB and MUSO (the Memorial Union Student Organization) plan to show a fair number of 3-D movies, provided that the films they select are available in the 3-D format. Last weekend, the movie Thor was shown in the revamped theater. So far, audiences have been relatively large, and Barrows is very impressed with the quality. “It’s everything I hoped it would be,” he said. Going to one of these movies is very cost-efficient for consumers as well; viewers pay a fee of $2 for the required 3-D glasses, and are then allowed to
348-1947 236-2699
keep and reuse them each time. In addition, a portion of every ticket sale is set aside to pay fees to the 3-D movie provider, a company called Real D. The installation of the new system was also costeffi cient for the university. However, some students were concerned about rising tuition prices and the impact that this new technology would have on those prices. “I like the idea, but I don’t think it’s very necessary. It’s money coming out of students’ pockets for something that’s an interesting concept, but not vital,” sophomore Danielle Barrett said. While several other students seem to agree, they have nothing to fear, as the technology was already budgeted for in the MUB’s fi ve-year equipment plan. In fact, the university waited to purchase the system until prices deflated, so as to avoid unnecessary spending. The installation was also supported by the MUB Board of Governors and by student feedback. “We asked students what they thought, and the response was definitely positive,” Barrows said. UNH is the fi rst campus in the nation to have the luxury of a 3-D movie theater, and the majority of students definitely seem to be on board. Junior George Jumpp remarked, “I love that we are the first college in the country to have one, and I can’t wait to check it out.” Students interested in checking it out can do so this weekend, with Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides, on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday at 6:45 p.m. and 9:15 p.m.

Kennett Middle School eighth grade performs community-wide cleanup CONWAY — In recognition of 9/11, eighth graders from Kennett Middle School went out on their annual service day recently. The eighth-grade students of Kennett Middle School put aside their textbooks and pencils and picked up trash bags for several hours in a community cleanup. Students and faculty spent the morning at seven designated areas combing the sides of the road and bagging trash. Areas ranged from North-South Road in North Conway to Passaconaway Road in Conway. “What a great way for the kids to give back,” Beth Metts, Team 4 Language Arts teacher, said. “The weather was perfect and the kids were awesome. Service for others begins at a young age. I hope the kids and faculty continue this tradition.” Kennett Middle School principal Kevin Richard applauded the students’ efforts and also flipped the burgers and dogs for the students’ barbecue lunch. “I’ve received nothing but praise and thank you for the kids’ efforts today,” he said. “I hope they, the students, realize
how much they accomplished in a very short time. Imagine what they can do when given more time? We have a great group of kids.” The community service day, in conjunction with 9/11, has been around for a few years.
“I hope they, the students, realize how much they accomplished in a very short time. Imagine what they can do when given more time? We have a great group of kids.” “Originally, now retired teacher Pete Ames and Conway rec director John Eastman put it together,” teacher Bob Moore explained. “The rec department sponsored the event for the students which culminated in a barbecue lunch at the Conway rec. Unfortunately, due to Hurricane Irene, the rec center has been used as a shelter for those displaced. Hopefully, Kennett Middle School and Conway rec can reunite next year and continue the tradition.”

Do you think traffic roundabouts in Conway Village are a good idea?
Wednesday, Sept. 21 * With money tight, Kennett Middle School officials decide the annual eighth-grade trip will be to Philadelphia next spring instead of Washington DC. Some school board members don't like the choice. * Nov. 15 is the tentative date for a special town meeting vote on a $241,000 federal grant for a new police officer. * The local quilting group, Material Girls, donates 103 quilts for the new county nursing home. That's a quilt for every bed. * For the second year in a row, a local athlete will be on the cover of the Conway town report. Selectmen choose Major League pitcher Jeff Locke for this year's cover. Last year it was Olympic skier Leanne Smith.
With a bypass looking less and less likely, thoughts are turning to other ways to solve the traffic congestion problem in Conway Village. One idea came this week from town engineer Paul DegliAngeli, who suggested that roundabouts would do the job of keeping traffic moving through the village — and for much less money than building a bypass around the village. DegliAngeli suggested two roundabouts: one at the intersection of Route 16 and the Kancamagus Highway, and the other combining the two village intersections that currently have traffic lights. “Roundabouts would provide a whole lot more capacity than those lights,” DegliAngeli said. At least one selectman, David Weathers, thinks the idea of roundabouts is worth “investigating” with N.H. Department of Transportation. Weathers points to the NorthSouth Road roundabout, which he says has worked well despite some initial skepticism among townspeople.

NATIONAL PERSPECTIVE
The Way We Live Now WASHINGTON — Completely polarized. Distrust all around. Split down the middle. Sometimes paralyzed by divisions. We're not talking only about the United States today. We're talking about the Republican Party. There are a million polls flying around, most saying the same thing: that President Barack Obama doesn't have the support of the country, that the nation is worried about another recession, that unemployment will persist. But look a little deeper, beyond the usual questions that reap the usual answers, and you will see a stunner. Here's the question, addressed to Republicans, from the latest New York Times/CBS News poll: Which is more important to you, having a Republican nominee who agrees with your positions on most issues, or having a nominee with the best chance of defeating President Obama in 2012? The answer: Agrees with issues — 48 percent. Best chance in 2012 — 48 percent. It can't get any closer, or more divided, than that. This split mirrors the one on Capitol Hill between Democrats (who hold the Senate) and Republicans (who hold the House), and it runs through the GOP as the party prepares for what should be a breakaway layup in 2012. The same poll shows former Gov. Mitt Romney of Massachusetts with favorable ratings of 45 percent and Gov. Rick Perry of Texas with 42 percent. (Though respondents were asked about the candidates separately, it should not go unnoticed that the overall margin of error in that part of the poll is 4 percentage points, which makes the figures deliciously close.) Perry is where the GOP's heart is today. Romney is where the party's head is. Will the Republicans go with the guy who makes them swoon but makes them worry what Mom will say? Or the one who makes them cringe but would let Dad sleep better at night? Whole Trollope novels have been written about less. One of them is called "The Way We Live Now." Like the Republican nomination fight of 2012, it unfolded in monthly episodes in 1875. Republicans have been divided before between their dedication to ideology and their desire to win. It was a calamity in 1964, when Sen. Barry Goldwater of Arizona pulled the party to the right and Cow Palace delegates moved away from the patrician establishment personified by two Eastern governors, Nelson A. Rockefeller (Dartmouth '30, Casque and Gauntlet senior society) and William Scranton (Yale '39, Berzelius secret society). It was a triumph in 1980, when Ronald Reagan (Eureka College '32), a conservative true believer, defeated George H.W. Bush (Yale '48, Skull and Bones), considered a moderate and widely regarded as more electable. The Democrats have faced that choice as well. In 1972, the Democratic candidate of the head was Sen. Edmund S. Muskie of Maine, but the combination of an unusually large field — some of the dozen contenders included such powerful figures as Sens. Henry M. Jackson of Washington and Hubert H. Humphrey of Minnesota, along with Mayor John V. Lindsay of New York — and

a raucous primary fight held amid the emotions of the Vietnam War delivered the nomination to the candidate of the heart, Sen. George S. McGovern of South Dakota. He lost 49 states but retains the loyal affection of a small cadre. Some of them still have McGovern bumper stickers on their Volkswagen Bugs. This year's Republican split seems different from some of its predecessors — the one between conservatives and regulars in 1952, for example, or the one that divided House Republicans from Senate Republicans in 1995. The Newt Gingrich Republicans of that period were suspicious of the Bob Dole Republicans, but a year later there wasn't much doubt that Dole would prevail and win the nomination. It was, after all, his turn, and the challenge mounted by his opponents -- including conservative columnist Patrick J. Buchanan and a gaggle of established worthies, like former Gov. Lamar Alexander of Tennessee and Sen. Richard G. Lugar of Indiana — didn't pose that much of a fight. Unless Perry fizzles out, and he's not the sort to do so, the Republicans seem headed for a fight that, for the first time, might actually deserve the phrase that has been appended to earlier such contests: struggle for the soul of the Republican Party. And the battlefield for this fight, like the one for the general election, may well be in the suburbs and among independents, who can vote in the New Hampshire Republican primary. It's Texas hot versus Eastern cool, Aggie maroon versus Harvard crimson, a quarter of a state without health insurance versus a state health-insurance plan its author would just as soon disavow. And that's the surface stuff. The two men don't like each other, and their supporters can't stand each other. Together they have repealed Ronald Reagan's 11th commandment, sewn into the GOP consciousness if not its unwritten constitution since his 1966 campaign for governor in California: Though shalt not speak ill of any fellow Republican. As the election approaches and the economy remains stalled, the Republicans have much to be excited about, the Democrats very little. Obama's approval rating last week hit an all-time low (39 percent, according to the McClatchy-Marist poll). The Democrats also are divided on issues (those leaning left believe the president has leaned too far right), but they are united on their candidate. Chances are that the Obama dissenters will end up pulling the lever for their man, despite misgivings and mounting mistrust. The Republicans are united on some core principles (no new taxes, not now, not ever) but not on their candidate, or even on the tone — bombast from Paint Creek or silky sophistication from Belmont — they want to project against a weak incumbent. A party that can barely gather in the same room without having a fight about evolution or vaccination is a long way from planning an inauguration. David M.

Few politicians have offered a viable plan To the editor, It seems that the people bashing welfare recipients don’t like to be confronted with economic facts. They fi ght against the truth with tales of “these people I knew who (insert socially questionable activity) on our dime!” After reading their many, unconfirmed, Internet rants; I can see why so many people think the social safety net is being misused. My career as a fi nancial planner in the Mount Washington Valley puts me in contact with a wide variety of people at various economic levels. Many have suffi cient means to live comfortably, and use our fi rm to educate them on investing, IRA redemptions, and complex tax strategies.Unfortunately, I have had to watch more and more middle class folks come to us, to try to fi gure out how to just survive. As the economic recovery continues to misfi re, situations grow more dire. So in the interest of fairness, I thought I’d share several real stories about local people I have met. The question is which ones? There are so many. Should I tell you about the family that lives in my town that doesn’t have water? They need a new well but they just can’t afford one. You can see them fi lling water jugs at the gas stations, camp grounds or friends’ homes if you care to look. Perhaps they should have another baby to get all that extra money Mr. McLaughlin mentioned. Perhaps I could tell you about the couple from Conway who live in their truck. They couldn’t pay their bills after he got hurt in a car crash with an uninsured motorist. His small disability check helps, and she is looking for work,
but it’s hard to put a parking lot and no phone number on a job application. Imagine if we stole driver’s liberty and forced him to buy auto insurance. Or the family from Tamworth who had to move in with Grandma and Grandpa because Dad lost his job and then they lost their home. Mom’s job and unemployment held the creditors at bay for a while, but eventually they lost it all. They were lucky they had somewhere to go and try to rebuild their lives. Not so lucky that they don’t have health insurance, and the kids had to switch schools. Thankfully, N.H. Healthy Kids program will cover the kids if they get sick. If I sound angry about this, I am. Both sides of the isle like to tell these “Joe the Plumber” stories but few politicians, candidates or their interest groups have offered a viable plan to fix them. It seems that they are more interested in cutting taxes than improving people’s lives. Already, I can hear the keyboards rattling with anecdotes about how government plans don’t work, and criticisms of the people in office. These people need help, not rhetoric, or higher moralistic ideals. Some say we need less government in our lives, while others say we need to cut spending. These aren’t ideas, these aren’t solutions. This is just noise to mask the truth. They don’t want to help. That’s their decision and that’s okay. They have the right to choose and should vote accordingly. But they don’t have the right to portray these people as lazy, leeches, and thieves to make themselves feel better about it. Anthony Cloutier Freedom

Living Up Almost everything I have ever painted turned out brick red and most of my favorite fiddle tunes are in B flat, even though that is by far the hardest key for an untrained fi ddler like myself to play. These are the kinds of choices one makes without realizing it, a selection process that operates at the level of reflex. In much the same manner, I bought a mountain. In that unguarded moment I had no idea how big the mountain was, or whether there was any water on it, or whether it was accessible by anything but a forced march through untracked wilderness, or whether my money would last beyond the down payment. I’d spent all my summers in the woods and ridges of the White Mountains, so when one of those mountains came on the market, it never occurred to me not to buy it. After the papers passed I realized that I was not even sure where it was and my first two attempts to find the summit ended in a swamp. Mountains are not usually crowned with a swamp, but it was recognizably the same swamp both times, so at least I was getting lost in a consistent manner. It reminded me of the time we changed houses when I was five: the first three times I tried to find my bedroom I wound up in the bathroom. I finally made a hike that kept going uphill all the way until it leveled out. It was this rudimentary fact that cut through Hillary’s exhaustion and made him realize that he had reached the top of Everest, it was downhill everywhere he looked. My achievement disappeared on the scale that measures his, but I could not have been more pleased. The ledges at my feet dropped away to a river in the valley below, and the horizon was ringed by the Presidential Range in the east, the Twin Range, Garfi eld, and Lafayette to the south, and the Kinsman Range with Moosilauke stopping the valley to the west like a giant chockstone. With the same unthought refl ex that had guided my purchase of the mountain, I realized that this was the spot for my house. Ownership is an elusive concept. It’s one thing to buy a book, or a pair of pants, or even an automobile; I know in a general way how the raw materials are produced and I can imagine the people and the skills that create the goods that are finally purchased. I can even imagine making a book, or a pair of pants, or an automobile all by myself. Given enough lifetimes, I could probably learn to do it. That’s what money really is, a medium that lets us store our own time and exchange it for someone else’s. But I found myself puzzled by the idea of owning a mountain. For whose time and whose raw material, for whose skills had I bartered? In the end, I settled for a different sort of barter. Almost every day in that fi rst year, I’d climb the mountain and clear out an uprooted fi r tree that had fallen into a stand of young birches, or I’d thin the red maple seedlings where they choked the ferns and trillium. In return, I’d take a few minutes out on the ledges, just looking around. That’s what I was doing on the first Thanksgiving. Both my parents are Mayfl ower descendants and I’d grown up with the vague but persistent idea that my family had actually invented Thanksgiving, an idea annually reinforced by the large quantities of cornmeal mush and baked onions served with turkey. This November I had not gone to their house; instead, I climbed the mountain through an early snow and spent the day clearing the
The view from my mountain. (COURTESY NICHOLAS HOWE)
scrub on the land just behind the ledges. At noon, I sat under a spruce tree to ward off the snow and ate a peanut butter sandwich with raisins and sang a few verses of “We Gather Together.” I doubt that the mountain top had ever heard that old song, but it seemed like the right thing to do. When I got up, I noticed a spring on the other side of the tree. That did it. It was the only water I had found on the mountain and it was right at the top, just behind the place where I hadn’t really believed I’d be able to build my house. The irresistible clarity of that sign was one thing, it was the water supply that I’d worried about, but actually building the house was another matter. Despite the runaway optimism that infused the New Hampshire mortgage market that year, the bankers were deeply disinterested in fi nancing a house on top of a mountain, accessible only by foot, and miles from the nearest road, sewer, or power line, to say nothing of schools and churches. After all, if my tenuous fi nances collapsed, as seemed likely, who would want such a place? Questions like that are important to bankers. Not to me. Like a lover blind to the imperfections of his betrothed, I simply ignored the money problem. I could not as easily ignore the access problem. On one of my extended rambles along the ridge I found an old lumber road that led along the valley between my mountain and its neighbor and then wound up the north slope to the top. It had been carefully located, but it was a relic of the days when oxen hauled the logs. Oxen have better traction than contractor’s trucks and are less prone to mechanical failure, but I had no oxen. It looked as if I was on my own in this business. Then one day, on an unrelated errand, I stopped at a garage. The garage man’s brother was a lumberman, he was shutting down a cutting operation, and selling off equipment. Cheap. He’d brought a caterpillar woods tractor to the garage for a new clutch and the caterpillar logging trailer that went with it was out in back. It could carry a big load of wood up anything short of a cliff in any season, the deal was quickly made, and I painted both the tractor and the trailer brick red.

'The trees will put on a show' BY DAYMOND STEER THE CONWAY DAILY SUN
CONWAY — Now that flood damage from Tropical Storm Irene has been repaired, the leaf-peeping season should go on as normal this fall. Experts seem confi dent the trees will be as beautiful as ever. Mount Washington Valley Chamber of Commerce executive director Janice Crawford has a bright outlook for the 2011 fall foliage season. She was pleased the state reopened Kancamagus Highway and Route 302 in time for the leaf-peeping season. Tropical Storm Irene heavily damaged both highways. While traveling around, Crawford said she noticed that roads were repaired well. Despite the storm, most people have kept their motor coach reservations. "We're back to business as usual," said Crawford."The trees will put on a show." The Offi ce of Travel and Tourism will be increasing its marketing for foliage season to include signage at the welcome centers. The chamber of commerce will be developing a series of e-mails highlighting fall foliage information and will be part of the state's fall foliage mapping project. Jackson Area Chamber of Commerce head Kathleen Driscoll is similarly optimistic about this season. She said the state of New Hampshire did a great job repairing the roads and making sure people know they are open. Meanwhile, the leaves are already turning vibrant reds and golden yellow. "Everybody is happy and it feels wonderful," said Driscoll. The Jackson area is looking forward to the 24th annual Pumpkin People where the town is lined with creative displays. Pumpkin People will be held from Oct. 1 to Oct. 20. The foliage will be approaching peak by the end of September in the northern part of the state, according to an interactive foliage report on New Hampshire Office of Travel and Tourism website. The foliage should be past peak around mid-October and well faded by Halloween. The state tourism offi ce also has a written foliage report, which comes out weekly. “The colors in the higher elevations are becoming somewhat established, with definite oranges and reds showing,” states the most recent report for the White Mountain Region on Sept. 21. “Look for sparkling red maples along waterways and rivers all over the region. see FALL page 15

Traveling on Route 112, which is the Kancamagus Scenic Byway, leaf peepers will see beautiful yellows and shades of red on the smaller and stressed trees. Another couple of weeks will push this area into a blast of bright fall colors.” Last year, University of New Hampshire professor Barry Rock said New Hampshire’s fall foliage has been losing some of its luster since 2003 because of climate change. His outlook was based on satellite images. But his PhD student, Martha Carlson, is optimistic about the 2011 season. Carlson, of Sandwich, also serves as the coordinator of Forest Watch, one of Rock’s programs. Overall, the trees look like they are in good shape. “The tourists will be ecstatic, as will we,” said Carlson. “I like the fall foliage too.”
One of the dominant species in this region, the sugar maple, may appear more dull brown at the end of September. Don’t worry, the trees are healthy. They are just putting out their seeds, which are a brownish color, said Carlson. Soon, the seeds will fall off and the leaves will change to gold, red and orange. Maple trees only sprout seeds once every 10 to 15 years. Sugar maple trees mature enough to develop seeds at 21 years old. Somehow, all the trees decide to sprout seeds in unison. How that happens is unknown. “It’s a cool mystery,” said Carlson. A NASA plane recently fl ew over Conway for a research mission called Eco3D. The purpose was to improve NASA's capability to accurately measure carbon in forests. The Eco3D fl ight campaign used three instrusee FALL page 16

ments developed at NASA Goddard Space Flight Center, said the center's head Kenneth Ranson. The specific aims of the mission was: To acquire coordinated active lidar (Light Detection And Ranging) radar and passive (radiometer) data over forest ecosystems, measure the three dimensional structure (in terms of tree height and density) of North American forests, and measure above-ground biomass and carbon storage in forest ecosystems ranging from arboreal forests to tropical wetlands. Scientists took photos of the fall foliage while they flying overhead. “We saw some trees starting to change colors to gold, orange and red, hinting that the coolness of fall is starting over the region,” said scientist Charles Gatebe. Conway Scenic Railroad is getting lots of reservations for the fall foliage season, said railroad spokesperson Susan Logan. Riders are coming from all over the country to ride on the train. Some have called from Texas, Georgia

In fact, one United Kingdom couple were scheduled to come the week of Sept. 26 to celebrate their 25th wedding anniversary. After Irene created fl ood damage on Aug. 28, Conway Scenic Railroad was shut down while $500,000 in repair work was completed. The railroad reopened all its routes by on Sept. 17. Silver Lake Railroad offers trips by donation through Madison’s chain of ponds, said railroad volunteer Will Scopa. The swamp maples are turning red and looking pretty. The red and golden raspberry crop should be coming in well through early October because of favorable weather temperature and moisture levels, said David Sorensen, who operates a small farm in Eaton.

Group seeks to restore Bartlett Roundhouse BY TOM EASTMAN THE CONWAY DAILY SUN
Jim and Sandra Abbott are members of the Bartlett Roundhouse Preservation Club. (TOM EASTMAN PHOTO)
BARTLETT — “Rome wasn't built in a day. So, we know this will take a bit of time.” That's what Bartlett Roundhouse Preservation Club member Jim Abbott said about the club's long-term goals for its hoped-for restoration of the 1887built facility last week, while taking a tour of the wooden structure on the eve of the Conway Scenic Railroad's 37th annual Railfans' Weekend, Sept. 17-18. The club had a booth at the railfans' event last weekend. The club was formed in March 2008. The building is owned by the state. “We have an agreement with the state for the building which allows us to do preservation work on the grounds and the building. We're not allowed to haul anything off the grounds due to environmental concerns so we have

used a chipper there to grind up the brush we have cleared,” said Abbott's wife, Sandra, who serves as the club's secretary and treasurer. On last week's grounds tour, the Abbotts, residents of Silver Lake, said while it will take a long time to get the structure restored, they are confi dent that with the help of other rail enthusiasts, they'll reach their goal. “It's an important part of local history,” said Sandra, who said she has long loved White Mountain history, but only became a rail fan because of her husband's longtime fascination with trains. “I guess you could say I married into it: My husband loves trains, and it goes way back. He and his brother used to set up a lemonade stand on West Main Street in Conway as kids to serve passengers on the Conway Scenic,” she laughed. see ROUNDHOUSE page 18

sible for contractor estimates and further volunteer labor.â€? Non-proďŹ t status obtained The Abbotts and club president Scotty Mallett said the club received good news this week from its accountant that it had received ofďŹ cial non-proďŹ t status as a 501 c3 organization. In an interview from his home in St. Johnsbury, Vt., Mallett — a former resident of Bartlett whose two grandfathers both once worked for the Maine Central there — said that the club's new tax status will be a great boost in its efforts to raise funds. “This accomplishment will now allow us to apply for grants and other serious funding that will help to restore the Bartlett Roundhouse for future generations to enjoy,â€? said Mallett. At railfans' weekend, the club sold replica kits of the roundhouse, and also handed out a  yer, telling enthusiasts of the club's planned ďŹ rst annual Model Railroad Show. The show is scheduled to take place on May 19, 2012 at the Josiah Bartlett Elementary School in Bartlett. Mallett and the Abbotts are hoping that others will join them in their quest, especially now that the edgling organization has obtained ofďŹ cial nonproďŹ t status. In a way, they quipped, they are already a de facto non-proďŹ t. Asked how much they have in their coffers, Sandra somewhat apologetically said, “One hundred,â€? as in “$100.â€? “We've got a ways to go,â€? said Jim Abbott. Asked how much she thinks it would cost to restore the building, Sandra Abbott said she does not know. “We have not gotten to that point,â€? she said.

brush — and they are hoping that other rail and history enthusiasts will hop “on boardâ€? their train by joining the club. The club has held several work sessions, according to its website. “Our biggest issues are preservation, and vandalism. We've put up plywood to try and close it up, and we're asking people to help us by keeping an eye out for vandals,â€? said Jim Abbott. The yard features a Portland Terminal Russell Plow No. 68, constructed in 1923; and a MEC 40-foot wooden brace box car No. 35059, both of which are on loan from the Conway Scenic Railroad for display purposes. Eventually, the club would like to restore both. Vandals have attacked the snowplow; the box car is kept inside the building. “It is our hope to restore both of these items to their original appearance, so that future generations of railfans and history buffs can see ďŹ rst hand what type of equipment was used in New Hampshire and New
England over the years. This is what we hope to be the modest beginning of a larger collection of railroad memorabilia and documents that will span the better part of a century and a half of railroad history,� says Mallett on the club's website. Interviewed this week, he said he would like to see a model railroad layout at the roundhouse, which, he said, could be part of the state's 100-mile scenic byway. He recalled a time when everyone in Bartlett worked for the railroad. “Bartlett was a railroad town, no question,� said Mallett, 42, who followed in his family's Maine Central railroading footsteps by working for the Conway Scenic for 15 years. “Everyone either worked on the railroad, or knew a family who did.� The roundhouse employed a force of 50 men, who worked three shifts, to keep the engines that went up Crawford Notch running. see ROUNDHOUSE page 20

“They would service the locomotives that would come down Crawford Notch to Portland, and those that would go up and beyond to St. Johnsbury. My grandfather, Alfred Mallett, was a signal maintainer who took care of the telegraph wires; my other grandfather, Carroll Kelley, was the track foreman who worked on the track,” said Mallett. He told a story about how Kelley rode a snowplow train whose front was coming off the tracks on the Willey Brook Bridge. “They were going across the bridge and it hit a chunk of ice. It derailed the front truck of the snowplow. It got across the bridge on the ties, and then hit the guardrail and that got it back on the rails on the other side,” said Mallett — telling just one of many railroading tales handed down by his grandfathers that he would like to see published some day. He would like to see the facility restored as a symbol of that heritage, when railroad men worked through the winter and all weather to keep the trains running. “I would like to see it restored because of what the railroad meant for the town I grew up in and my family,” said Mallett. The club pays a $500 insurance premium per year for the building. The club knocked down a former machine shop at the back of the once six-stalled and now four-stalled build-

ing, as it was beyond repair. The state Department of Transportation once used the structure to store salt for its road vehicles — a factor which led to some deterioration, notes Jim Abbott. The state last year replaced the former tarp that was on the roof with a real roof. Next up is to repair the timbers in the building, as well as sill work on the back of the building, working with the state to stop some of the decay, says Mallett. Membership stands at 50, with membership costing $10. Membership benefits include receiving a newsletter every year and the chance to be part of White Mountain railroad history. Roundhouse’s history According to the club's website, the Bartlett Roundhouse was built by the Portland & Ogdensburg Railroad between 1887 and 1888. The all-wood Bartlett Engine House with six stalls was home to helper locomotives that would assist heavy trains over the grade leading to Crawford Notch. The efficient railroad was instrumental in opening the White Mountains to tourism, logging and freight service. The P&O was acquired through lease by the Maine Central railroad in 1888. Besides transforming the region's economy, the railroad served a critical role in moving materials and supplies during World War I and World War II. see next page

The roundhouse was built to shelter and service steam locomotives. As steam was replaced by diesel locomotive technology in the early 1950s, the usefulness of the terminals like Bartlett began to fade. Plans were drawn up to replace the structure in 1951. Two stalls were demolished and the 17,500-gallon water tower was removed between 1951 and 1952. “There was once a turntable here but they took it out and replaced it with the wye. Trains would go up Bear Notch Road after that,” said Jim Abbott. Plans to rebuild and replace the engine terminal were halted as freight and passenger service declined. In June of 1958, the history of the roundhouse as a locomotive service facility ended and the building was closed and sold to the State of New Hampshire. “From 1959 through the early 1980s, the state Department of Transportation (DOT) used the building as a sand and salt shed. Many years of salt storage had the unfortunate side-effect of rotting the wallboards of Stall 4. The building fell into disuse,” notes the website. Meanwhile, the Maine Central became a part of Guilford Transportation Industries and the Mountain Division through Crawford Notch was abandoned in 1983.
While the rails in Bartlett fell silent, the nearby Conway Scenic Railroad began seasonal tourist service on the former Boston & Maine branch out of North Conway in 1974. The seasonal trains returned to Bartlett years later, once again bringing activity to the rails just outside the roundhouse, with the Conway Scenic Railroad obtaining the lease from the state to renovate the rails and to operate the Mountain Division in 1995. “The Bartlett Roundhouse Preservation Club was formed in March 2008 as an all-volunteer grassroots movement to evaluate and help recondition the historic structure for all to enjoy,” notes the website. “The state granted the organization a limited-use agreement that allows them to perform cleanup work and invite licensed contractors to evaluate the structure. The future of the historic roundhouse remains uncertain. Critical support beams have weakened under the weight of many New Hampshire winters and the roof as a whole needs to be replaced. The structure is still stable, but needs work if it is to survive. Without work done to the building to halt the decay, it will collapse within the next few years.” For more information, visit bartlettroundhouse.blogspot.com or e-mail to bartlettroundhouse @ yahoo.com.

Compassionate communication and sustainability of resources are essential to meeting people’s needs This past Wednesday was like the blank pages of a book, with a rainy Tuesday and Thursday as hard covers. Something needed to be done to fill the pages of that beautiful day. I decided to climb Mount Jefferson, and perhaps Mount Clay as well. That morning, I threw a “peace fl ag” in my pack. I Ed Parsons previously made it — with magic markers, a pillow case, and a minute — on the morning of September 12. That day, my friend and I were off on a hike up Blueberry Mountain in Evans Notch. We were aware that the day before, an American fl ag had been placed on all 48 of the 4000 footers in New Hampshire in remembrance of victims of 9/11. We wanted people to remember the goal of peace as well. The Blueberry Mountain hike was great, with a freezing dip in Rattlesnake pool at the end. At two lookouts on the mountain, we photographed each other holding the flag. It felt right. As it felt right to throw it in my pack on Wednesday morning on my way to Mount Jefferson. I would bring it to the summit of a 4000 footer. In the early morning light I drove up Crawford Notch, turned onto the Mount Clinton Road, and wove along the base of the Southern Presidentials to its terminus on the Cog Railway Base Road. Directly across was a gated Jefferson Notch Road, closed way

HIKING from page 23
too early in the season because of water damage. Good night Irene.I turned right on the Base Road and soon parked in the Ammonoosuc Ravine Trail parking lot. I would have to take the Boundary Line Trail, which connects the Jewell Trail with Jefferson Notch Road, then walk up that road to the Caps Ridge trailhead-- a total of 2.7 miles to get to the bottom of Mount Jefferson. I had never done this walk, and greatly enjoyed it. From the parking lot I walked across the Base Road to the Jewell Trail and in 0.4 miles turned onto the Boundary Line Trail. It was getting a lot of use since the hurricane. In almost a mile I hit the well maintained Jefferson Notch Road and headed right uphill. Almost immediately, I encountered washouts, usually at bends in the road. The road reminded me of a river bed. I followed a single pair of moose tracks up the middle of the road, littered with otherwise undisturbed yellow-brown birch leaves, to the 3008 foot Jefferson Notch, and the Caps Ridge Trail. The shortest way to a presidential peak (when the road is open), the 2.5 mile Caps Ridge Trail has been appreciated by thousands of hikers over the years. One of my favorite spots on it is the first lookout located just one mile up the trail. I arrived on Wednesday as the early morning light was maturing, and looked out on a young world. From the sharp peak of Jefferson above, the range marched south over Mount Washington to the rolling Southern Presidentials. To the west was the vast basin of Bretton Woods with the western White Mountains beyond it. My eyes slid down off these peaks to horizon and Vermont. The domed granite I sat on held numerous “glacial potholes,” formed on the ridge top from drainage off the melting glacier. If that was only a short while ago, how long was my life? It’s not surprising that
humans are inclined towards the infinite. I continued the classic hike up through the receding trees to the “Caps,” cubist outcrops on a west ridge of Mount Jefferson. These are fun to scramble up, and add to a feeling of entering an alpine world. As I started up the steep fi rst cap, avoiding moist spots that hadn’t dried in the sun yet, I allowed a couple seconds to remember a “rescue” by the Mountain Rescue Service in 1994, when they brought the inert body of Derek Tinkham down the Caps Ridge in 85 mph winds and minus 30 degree temps. Descending this section with that burden must have been brutal. The two seconds were up. It was a beautiful day to enjoy this quick ascent out of the valley. A uniform under-cast of cottony clouds spread west beyond the low nearby Dartmouth Range. Above the Caps, the trail grew more level and wound up to the top of Mount Jefferson. Reaching it at 10 a.m., I taped the fl ag to a rock for a photo. My only thoughts on peace, were that people really need help achieving it. I thought of Christ in the west, and deities in the east that were mirror images of the same spirit. My friend, who accompanied me on Blueberry Mountain, is very practical when it comes to ideas on achieving peace. Later, after my own hike, I asked her to briefl y elaborate. Marches or fl ag waving are ok, she said, but then people need to get down to the real work, to learn the skills, which are more available through good teachers than they ever have been. Compassionate communication and sustainability of resources are essential to meet people’s needs in the world, she said. Only then can you move beyond blame and violence. She mentioned a few teachers, such as Marshall Rosenberg who developed Nonviolent Communication, which is uniquely respectful of people’s needs (why can’t this be taught in schools instead of a violent history that perpetuates violence, I asked her).
As an example of sustainability in the world, she mentioned Nobel winner Wangari Maathai, an African woman who helped bring water and wood back to poor villages by recruiting villagers to plant trees. “People also need to cultivate inner peace,” said my friend. “It is good to have a particular practice or teacher, and a group to share with.” I thanked her for her well considered and studied thoughts. Back on Mount Jefferson, I decided to head over to the summit of neighboring Mount Clay, then descend the Jewell Trail back down to the Cog Base Road. I hadn’t seen anyone so far on the trail, as I connected with the Gulfside Trail, then took the spur to the top of Mount Clay. Yet it was obvious there were many on the summit of Mount Washington. I had lunch overlooking the Great Gulf, then continued along Clay to the Gulfside trail, and was soon descending the familiar Jewell Trail. Later near the bottom, the Jewell Trail Spur, which connects directly with the Cog Railroad base, was not only closed because of storm damage, but fenced off with plastic fence. There was a considerable fi ne for going that way. It was considerably shorter than the regular trail, and I hoped it would be open for the winter hiking season. But I didn’t have much hope for that. Still, the mile back to my car on the regular trail was very pleasant. That night, I found out to my amazement that it was World Peace Day (Sept. 21). The International Day of Peace was established in 1981 by the United Nations during the opening of the General Assembly, “to provide an opportunity for individuals, organizations and nations to create practical acts of peace on a shared date. It is also a day of personal and political ceasefire.” When I found out that millions were also celebrating peace that day through ceremonies, dance, walks, talks, tree plantings, exhibitions, convoys, picnics, singing and candle lighting, I was filled with light.

Country Ecology: Canoes and the white birch trees BY DAVE EASTMAN New Hampshire’s favorite photogenic tree is most easily identifi ed by its pure white bark that peels off the trunk in thin, paper-like layers. So, another of our offi cial state tree’s common names is paper birch, and its scientifi c name is Betula papyrifera, meaning paper-bearing birch, refl ecting the nature of that shimmering outer bark. Native Americans of the Eastern Woodlands made extensive use of this elegant white birch. All parts of the plant had practical uses, but the tough, light weight bark was by far a most important raw material. Birch bark played a key role in the manufacture of canoes for transportation, wigwams for shelter, water-tight containers, and a host of useful implements such as moose calls, were made by the many tribes of the Northeast. “Canoe birch” still helps to defi ne our Northwood’s experience, as it fl ourishes in our cold climes. I’ve got one planted outside my front entrance. However, I wince when I remember a familiar summer camp activity in the past; it was sending a letter home to the folks who had paid the kids’ way there. Studious youngsters wrote home on a piece of birch bark usually ripped off a gorgeous tree. “Dear Mom and Dad, this letter is written on an actual piece of birch bark our counselor gave us for writing you…,” was the way it usually went. When it was realized that white birch bark would never again grow over that scar, nature counselors stopped this damaging practice. If one Googles up “birch bark canoes” now on the computer, you will not only find amazing descriptions of the Indians’ craftsman of yore, but discover
pictures of these artifacts and fi nd that the skillful use of the dramatic white birch’s fl exible bark is ongoing. You can even now go to schools and build your own birch bark canoe for $400 a foot! Did you know that paper birch bark is very strong and almost totally resistant to rot? You will learn that bark for canoe construction was best gathered during a winter thaw or just when the sap started to fl ow in the spring. The right specimen with a wide girth had been eye-balled for some time. A tree of the desired size, with excellent bark up to nine layers thick, was felled and trimmed, and the bark was cut and stripped off in one piece. The wooden frame of the canoe was of northern white cedar. The waterproof birch bark, with the brown, inner layer of the bark turned to the outside, formed the hull. Seams were sewn with split roots of spruce or tamarack, and then waterproofed with spruce resin. Birch bark canoes made by northern tribes were traded to tribes from more southern regions, where white birch was scarce, and later to European colonists. These early white men marveled at the fl awless construction performed with Stone Age tools in these buoyant watercraft. Our modern canvas and fi berglass canoes are patterned after the Native American birch bark canoe. My 1911 Old Town wood and canvas canoe followed the construction details of these birch bark canoes rather faithfully, and I think of that while gazing at its varnished red cedar planking and white cedar ribs. Lightweight for lifting and easily portable for short distances overland, any canoe made of birch bark could still

A rainy day trip report on the river The old adage: “The time to go fi shing is when you have the time” came into play last week. I had previously made arrangements to fi sh on Thursday with long time friend Rick Davidson unfortunately the day before Rick had called to say he couldn’t make it. No matter, I thought, I will just go by myself. When Thursday rolled around I woke to a rotten cold rainy morning. My fi rst inclination was to stay in bed and forget the whole thing, but than the end of the fishing season is drawing close and a little rain never hurt the fishing, so in the end I headed north to fish the Andro-
scoggin. Despite a late start I arrived at the Errol Dam around 10:30 a.m. I rigged up two rods: one with a new sinking head and Bill Thompson the other with a fl oating line. The sink tip is a new prototype from Airflo and I was eager to try it out. I am not much of a fan of sinking lines and in fact this is only the second one I have ever owned. I guess I am too much of a purist. The line does shoot extremely well
Fishing –––––
and, as advertised, the tip section sinks like a rock. Nate Hill and I had fi shed the dam two days before Irene made her visit to New England. With apologies to Winston Groom and his character Forrest Gump: “The Androscoggin is like a box of Chocolates. You never know what you’re gonna get.” On the day that Nate and I fi shed we caught lots of salmon and rainbows and a couple of browns thrown in for good measure. On this day it was all bass. I have nothing against bass, however on the whole I prefer to fi sh for trout and salmon. I do admit that bass are a noble game fish and can give a good account for themselves. The bass I caught gave me every bit as good a fi ght as any trout I caught that day. The first bass was caught using the sinking line in the fast water below the raceway of the dam. I thought I had hooked a monster brown and at first was disappointed that it was only a 15 inch bass. However, after thinking it over I had to admit that he was a pretty nice fi sh and I was lucky to have landed him. After taking a quick snapshot of the bass and releasing him I started casting again. On my third or forth cast I managed to snag my fl y on a chain-link fence behind me. The fl y was wrapped around a strand of barbwire several feet over the water below the dam. It was too far out to reach and I tried to break off the fly, in doing so I managed to break the leader off a few inches below the line. A new leader would have fi xed the problem, but for some reason or another I had forgotten to bring a spare. I would have liked to continue fishing the sink tip, but instead congratulated myself on having the forethought to have rigged up the second rod with the floating line. The prospects for fishing dry flies didn’t look all that good. It was raining quite hard and there seemed to be a definite lack of insects on the water or rising fi sh for that matter. I tied on a Stimulator and began casting up to the dam. On the second or third cast I missed a fish. This was a good sign I thought and continued casting. I was rewarded with a vicious strike. Again, I thought I had caught a good salmon or trout. The fish tore off across the front of the dam and than raced right back at me. In the struggle to get line in the fi sh managed to wrap himself around a large rock. In a predicament like this the best thing to do is back off and give the fish line. I did just that. I let line off the see FISHING page 28

carry heavy loads of food and animal hides. The canoes were made in many sizes, depending on how they were to be used. A small hunting canoe might be only nine or ten feet long, and carry one or two men. A canoe meant for use in the open ocean would be as long as twenty feet or more, with high sides, and would carry a number of paddlers. Many styles were characteristic of the tribes that built them, featuring regional forms. Their names stick today, such as Malecite, Chippewa, and Algonquin. When the Hudson Bay Company and the North West Company began trading furs in the 1700’s, the native people were hired to build birch bark canoes for them to use in their trading. Some of these sturdy canoes were able to carry sixteen people and 8,000 pounds of cargo. An average-sized canoe, light

I like learning how these were often sunk at one end of a waterbody, with carefully placed rocks, to hold them on the sandy bottom until one came back to use it again--to get back up that lake. Indians simply walked through the woodlands to the next pond and brought up that one stored there, too. Apparently, they had a lot of these purposefully scattered around. Our many lakes in Maine and New Hampshire called for such aboriginal transportation to evolve. Dave Eastman also broadcasts “Country Ecology” four times weekly over WMWV 93.5 fm.

reel and backed up to get my net which I had left lying on the bank behind me. After retrieving the net I slowly reeled in the line. By the time I got back into position the fi sh had unwrapped himself and was headed back to his lie. I’m sure he was surprised to fi nd that he was still hooked. I was now in a much better position to fight the fish and soon had him in the net. Like before my fi sh turned out to be a bass. My third fi sh of the morning turned out to be another bass of about the same size. All three of these bass were just a hair over 15 inches, but fought like fi sh twice their size. The fi shing slowed down a bit and it was now well past lunch time so I headed in to town and picked up a sub at the local country store. After lunch I rigged up and waded in. The fi shing proved to be slow and I had only caught one small salmon before I decided to move on down river. I stopped in town to take a picture of an unusual wooden moose that caught my attention. Further down river I stopped to fi ll my water bottle at the spring at Seven Island Bridge and arrived at Pontook Dam at around 3:30 p.m. It was still raining and in fact raining hard. The one thing about fishing on rainy days is you rarely find any competition. This was quite obvious this day as I never saw another fi sherman the entire time I was on the river. In retrospect, I guess, I was the only one foolish enough not to come out of the rain. I sat there for a while contemplating whether or not to get out and fish or get out of my damp waders and head home. It came down to “fi sh or cut bait” and at last I decided to fi sh. I couldn’t have
made a better choice. They had just started to close down the gates of the dam as I waded in. A few moments latter I caught my fi rst fish — a small bass nothing like those I had caught in Errol. I was questioning the wisdom of my decision when I caught my first trout of the day. A lovely rainbow of about 16 inches came to net. I was still fi shing the Stimulator only now I had added a dropper fly. The rainbow had taken the dropper and so I continued to fish the rig. The next rainbow I caught took the dry fly. And so it went for the next hour or so; fi rst I would catch a trout on the dropper and then the next on the dry. After catching a small salmon on the nymph I managed to bend the hook when removing it from the fish’s mouth. I caught a couple more rainbows before I cut off the dropper fly and continued to fish only the dry. I caught several more rainbows and a very nice brown trout before I decided enough was enough. There were fish still rising in the run just in front of me and I knew that if I waded out another 20 feet I could catch them. I reeled in and called it a day. Every dog has his day and this dog had just had a spectacular one. By now I was pretty much soaked to the bone. When I got back to the truck and started to shuck off my rain jacket and waders I discovered that both had failed miserably. I started the truck and turned up the heater and by the time I got home I was fairly dry. So the old adage still holds true: “The time to go fishing is when you have the time and the weather be dammed.” Sorry, Rick, you missed a good day. See you on the river.

By Holiday Mathis SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Everything happens in its own time. Rushing makes it harder for you. Don’t let stress and strain creep in. Slow down. Remember what you learned from the frustrations of your parents. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Sit around a table with friends, colleagues or loved ones. Relax and unwind together. Talk about your day. You will discover something you didn’t know before. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19 ). Your priorities will shift again, and as they do, you’ll think about how well your current lifestyle really suits you. You don’t have to fi gure it out in one day. This process of evaluation will go on for weeks to come. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Friends may disappoint you, so you’ll have to cut them some slack. You’ll ultimately be better off letting them be themselves instead of making them feel they have to perform or walk on eggshells around you. PISCES (Feb. 19 -March 20). You feel relaxed, and you create a relaxed environment around you. You feel you can share honestly with your loved ones without being attacked. It’s a safe, comfortable feeling. TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Sept. 24). You’ll make yourself useful. This habit will keep you at the center of the social swirl and in a prime professional position. Refusing to take things personally, you’ll sail past fi nancial and political obstacles. December features travel and stellar entertainment. A group effort will make a difference in the world. Gemini and Aries people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 4, 14, 39, 11 and 29.
Get Fuzzy
HOROSCOPE ARIES (March 21-April 19). You will feel empowered to experiment. You’ll eat different food, talk to new people and read about subjects you never considered before. You’ll like how this develops you. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). People like what they can be involved in. You may start out alone, but don’t fi nish all by yourself, too, or you’ll be setting yourself up for judgment and possibly rejection. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You are deeply averse to inconveniencing others. What you fail to understand is that being inconvenienced can be the most interesting part of a person’s day. Who are you to deprive someone of that? CANCER (June 22-July 22). Your commitments are so numerous that if you don’t write them down or put them into a good system, you’ll likely lose your way. Take a moment to consider all of the promises, big and small, you’ve made of late. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). It is hard to be nice to someone when you think that person is behaving like an idiot. But try. Detach, step back, and see the dynamic from a higher place. Compassion requires perspective. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). The world is put off by ill-mannered pushiness. Needing results to come faster than they seem to want to come creates struggle and negativity. Go the other way. Make peace with the natural pace of things. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). A friendly invitation comes your way, and you would be wise to accept it, mostly because you’ll have a good time. Social antics will be an adventure. Laughter will light your path.

THE CONWAY DAILY SUN, Saturday, September 24, 2011— Page 33
Today is Saturday, Sept. 24, the 267th day of 2011. There are 98 days left in the year. Today’s Highlight in History: On Sept. 24, 1789, Congress passed a Judiciary Act which provided for an Attorney General and a Supreme Court. On this date: In 1869, thousands of businessmen were ruined in a Wall Street panic known as “Black Friday” after financiers Jay Gould and James Fisk attempted to corner the gold market. In 1929, Lt. James H. Doolittle guided a Consolidated NY-2 Biplane over Mitchel Field in New York in the first all-instrument flight. In 1948, Mildred Gillars, accused of being Nazi wartime radio propagandist “Axis Sally,” pleaded not guilty in Washington, D.C., to charges of treason. (Gillars, later convicted, ended up serving 12 years in prison.) In 1955, President Dwight D. Eisenhower suffered a heart attack while on vacation in Denver. In 1961, “Walt Disney’s Wonderful World of Color” premiered on NBC (it succeeded Disney’s anthology series on ABC). In 1963, the U.S. Senate ratified a treaty with Britain and the Soviet Union limiting nuclear testing. In 1976, former hostage Patricia Hearst was sentenced to seven years in prison for her part in a 1974 bank robbery in San Francisco carried out by the Symbionese Liberation Army. (Hearst was released after 22 months after receiving clemency from President Jimmy Carter.) In 1991, kidnappers in Lebanon freed British hostage Jack Mann after holding him captive for more than two years. Children’s author Theodor Seuss Geisel (GY’-zul), better known as “Dr. Seuss,” died in La Jolla, California, at age 87. One year ago: President Barack Obama and Southeast Asian leaders meeting in New York sent China a firm message over territorial disputes between Beijing and its neighbors, calling for freedom of navigation in seas that China claimed as its own. Today’s Birthdays: Actor-singer Herb Jeffries is 100. Actress Sheila MacRae is 87. Rhythm-and-blues singer Sonny Turner is 72. Singer Barbara Allbut is 71. Singer Phyllis “Jiggs” Allbut is 69. Singer Gerry Marsden is 69. Pro and College Football Hall of Famer Joe Greene is 65. Actor Gordon Clapp is 63. Former U.S. Rep. Joseph Kennedy II, D-Mass., is 59. Actor Kevin Sorbo is 53. Actress-writer Nia Vardalos is 49. Country musician Marty Mitchell is 42. Actress Megan Ward is 42. Singer-musician Marty Cintron (No Mercy) is 40. Contemporary Christian musician Juan DeVevo (Casting Crowns) is 36. Actor Justin Bruening is 32. Olympic gold medal gymnast Paul Hamm is 29. Actor Kyle Sullivan is 23.

DAUGHTER’S THIRD PREGNANCY CROSSES THE LINE FOR PARENTS
DEAR ABBY: Our daughter “Bree” has just announced that she’s pregnant with her third child. Her other children are 1 and 2. My wife and I are in our 60s and provide chi1d care three days a week, while the other grandma baby-sits for two days. We also pay for preschool and swimming lessons, as well as cook dinner for them on the days when we baby-sit. Bree and her husband do not earn enough money to support even one child. We know we’ll be expected to finance college for the children. When we agreed to help out, we asked them to promise they would not have more than two kids. This third one will cause us to use up our savings, increase our child care responsibilities and take us into our 80s to continue helping. Is it wrong to feel used? I am very depressed over this. -- OVERWHELMED IN SAN DIEGO DEAR OVERWHELMED: Your depression is understandable. If you don’t draw the line now by telling your daughter you can’t handle baby-sitting three small children and this wasn’t part of the bargain, she may hand you a fourth or fifth to take care of. You should not sacrifi ce your retirement savings in order to finance your grandchildren’s education. There are other options than your paying for it. The responsibilities you have assumed were not yours in the fi rst place. If you don’t insist your daughter and son-in-law stand on their own two feet, you will wind up old, broke, and living on Social Security with nothing to supplement it because your savings will be gone. DEAR ABBY: My fi ance, “Johnny,” and I have been together for four years and engaged for 16 months. Our wedding is in a few months. Until recently, Johnny didn’t have access to a car. That means for the past four years I have done all the driving, including visiting him at school two hours from my home every three to four weeks. It didn’t bother me because it was out of Johnny’s control; his money went to pay for his education. However, because
he has a car now, I feel it’s reasonable to ask that he do most -- though not all -- of the driving. We live in the same town now and our homes are a mile apart. Johnny seems to take offense at the suggestion and acts as if I am “punishing” him. I’m not, but I’m tired of driving all the time and would like a break now that he can give me one. What do you think? -- AT THE WHEEL AGAINST MY WILL DEAR AT THE WHEEL: Johnny has grown accustomed to, and spoiled by, the chauffeur service you have provided. That he should assume responsibility for his share of the driving now that he has a car of his own is not an onerous request. Although you have been together four years, the two of you need to have a talk and work this out. And because you have been apart for the years he has been in school, I also recommend that you schedule premarital counseling before the wedding -- in case there are any other “differences of opinion” that need to be worked out. DEAR ABBY: I’ll be 40 this year and I’m experiencing a midlife crisis. I have been married for 19 years, but realized several months ago that I haven’t been happy in years. I want to make some changes in my life, but I’m insecure about going it alone after so many years. I have been feeling a strong need to be on my own for a while to explore my passions and options. Any advice on how to explain this to my husband? -- IN FLUX IN PENNSYLVANIA DEAR IN FLUX: Before you throw away a marriage of nearly 20 years, please discuss this with a licensed therapist. Your therapist can help you decide what to do. While you may tell your husband this isn’t about him -- it’s about you -- he is sure to take the news very personally. And once you have separated in order to explore your passions and options, he will do the same, and it may not be possible to “go home” again.

Thursday, September 22nd ShemekiaCopeland! Blues great Shemekia Copeland was only 19 when she released her first album, “Turn the Heat Up,” in 1998, but her powerhouse voice and sassy attitude had people calling her the new Queen of the Blues from the beginning. She is the daughter of Texas blues guitarist and singer Johnny Copeland and it shows!!! Her concert last year was wild, fun, and inspiring. This summer at the Chicago Blues Festival, Shemekia was presented with Koko Taylor’s crown and officially given the honor as the new “Queen of the Blues” We would have to agree!! Highly Highly Highly, SMAC Recommended.

REAL ESTATE CORNER
HOME OF THE WEEK
Autumn aura BY JASON ROBIE I am going to go on record saying that last weekend was simply amazing! Perfectly crisp, dry, fall weather combined with bright blue skies made it one for the record books. And while this weekend’s forecast does not look nearly as promising, it is still a great fall weekend. You have likely noticed the panoramic landscapes have begun to take on their autumn glow, and the folks atop Mount Washington were forced to break out the shovels last week. While spring always seems to be an overdue respite from the clutches of winter, I have to say that this time of year brings a smile to my face nearly every morning! This is also one of my favorite times to show real estate. We don’t have to worry about tracking mud and snow into the seller’s home. The temperatures are perfect for slogging all over the valley in search of that perfect home without fi nishing your day in a ball of sweat. And the opportunity for sellers to “stage” their homes to create a warm and inviting aura is better than ever. Before we get into a few tips and tricks-ofthe-trade for setting up your homes for a great fall showing, I would be remiss if I did not at least mention the opportunity for buyers right now. I know this is going to sound like a sales pitch, but don’t take my word for it. Open up a newspaper or jump online and see for yourself. My good friends were just approved for an Adjustable Rate Mortgage at UNDER 3 percent! I’m a bit of a “fi xed-rate” snob myself, but the ARM will work well for their fi ve-year plan. This is simply amazing and I hope if you are in the market, you can find the opportunity to take advantage of these rates. OK, I’m off my soapbox now. As many of you are aware, smell is one of the more powerful senses we use when observing and evaluating just about everything. It is also the most “remembered," meaning we can recall scents longer than any of the other senses. Scents can either waft through your senses like a freshly laundered sheet or smack you in the brain like a 2X6 to your forehead. Either way, they are going to have a significant impact on your overall impression of the subject at hand. When I first walked into the duplex I had just closed on, eight years ago now, I was treated to the “2X6 to the forehead” experience. It seems the disgruntled (and displaced) tenants were not pleased with being asked to leave their home by the former owner and opted to punish him, and inadvertently me. They left their basset hound alone in the house for just over two weeks. Although they provided him with plenty of food and water, he was clearly not able to relieve himself outside and thus ruined multiple carpets and a pristine living room of antique hardwood fl oors. Aside from me feeling that they should be thrown in jail for their treatment of the dog, you can imagine the smell was rather “memorable." This is an extreme example I sincerely hope you do not have to relive, but one to bear in mind when prepping your home for sale. I highly recommend having a friend or neighbor see ROBIE page 46

walk into your home and give you some honest feedback about their experience. We, as homeowners, are typically incapable of objectively evaluating the scent of our home since we live “in” it every day. A hint of garlic from last night’s pasta or some lingering bacon smells from yesterday’s breakfast can simply set the wrong tone and the wrong fi rst impression. You want to be emanating “Yankee Candle” not “Moody’s Diner." Outside of the home, there are many opportunities to spruce up the yard and make that fi rst impression count. I like the fact that the grass has slowed its growing a bit. This means you can go a week or two between mowing. There are fewer nicer smells than fresh cut grass, so planning your cut before a showing will tighten the look of the front yard and cast a nice scent over the area. I also like to trim hedges and shrubs at this time of year as well. It cleans up their look for the winter, and, unless you cover them, will allow you to put them out of your mind until spring. This is a great time of year to clean your windows as well. Not just because you neglected them all summer like I did, but when showing off your view and letting in the sunlight for the showing and over the winter, you will want your windows to shine! Touch up any peeling paint, fix that broken downspout and simply eliminate any of the
clutter from the yard. You certainly don’t want to run GI Joe or Barbie through the snow blower. (Do you?) The last thing I like to encourage my sellers to do is take every advantage of fresh air while you can. We all know the season of closed windows and quickly-closed doors is upon us. Whenever possible, leave windows and doors open and let all the sunshine and fresh air into your home that you can. I have had sellers open windows and turn on the heat a bit just for a showing. They were not trying to hide anything, but simply provided some fresh air and kept the home comfortably warm while we were there. Right along those lines, this is also a good opportunity to crank up that heat, if you haven’t already, and get that “fi rst run” smell out of the system. Since my parents were up from Florida last week, I promise you I had multiple occasions to “test” my heat! If you are thinking of selling your home, consider this time of year as an option. While it is certainly not the busiest time of year for sales, there are still many opportunities and buyers out there. I am of the opinion that skiers and other winter enthusiasts are out there looking at exactly this time of year. Your warm, fresh-air-filled, vanilla-candle-smelling, clean-windowed home might be just what they are looking for! Jason Robie is a staff writer for Badger Realty on Main Street in North Conway.

China’s economic engine showing signs of slowing BY KEITH BRADSHER NEW YORK TIMES
HONG KONG — Is China’s economy in trouble, too? As the American economy appears to teeter on the edge of another recession, Europe struggles with a fi nancial crisis and emerging markets like Brazil and India show new weaknesses, China might appear to be in better shape than most countries, economists say. But “better” is relative. On the surface, economists at the International Monetary Fund and most banks are still estimating China’s growth rate to be over 9 percent this year. China continues to run very large trade surpluses. New construction starts have soared with a government campaign to provide more affordable housing. And yet, the country’s huge manufacturing sector is starting to slow and orders are weakening, especially for exports. The real estate bubble is starting to spring leaks, even as inflation remains stubbornly high for consumers — despite a series of interest

rate increases and ever-tighter limits on bank lending. A survey of Chinese purchasing managers, just completed by HSBC and Markit Economics, shows a third consecutive month of contraction in the manufacturing sector. The release of the survey results on Thursday contributed to a global slide in stock markets that day. Meanwhile, huge loans that Chinese banks have made to state-owned enterprises and local governments over the last three years could cause trouble if the economy does slow. What’s more, there are further signs of trade hostilities from Washington, where the impulse is to blame China’s cheap exports, at least partly, for America’s continued high unemployment. On Thursday, a bipartisan group of senators announced that they would pursue legislation requiring the Obama administration to confront China more directly on currency policy. They want the White House to push

harder for China to allow its currency, the renminbi, to appreciate. If China does allow its currency to rise more quickly and if its trade surplus narrows, that could help economies elsewhere. But because China’s mighty growth engine has been one of the few drivers of the global economy since the fi nancial crisis of 2008, signs of deceleration could add to worries about the global outlook. Chinese exporters are particularly worried. Nicole Huang, the sales manager at Dongguan Lianyi Sport Goods Co. Ltd., a maker of beer coolers, diving suits and other products in the industrial hub city of Dongguan, said the number of orders had dropped 5 percent so far this year, and the average size of each order had also begun to shrink.

facturers last year as workers sought better jobs elsewhere, more people now seem willing to accept assemblyline tedium. Short term, that could help exporters. But it could be an early sign of looming unemployment problems. “At least it is easier now for us to hire workers who come into our factory looking for work, after seeing our job notices posted outside,” Huang said. “Before, no one would respond to these notices.” The sentiments of investors and economists inside and outside China have taken a bearish turn in recent weeks. As global stock markets have tumbled, the Shanghai A-share stock market has fallen 14.7 percent since July 15. That includes a further decline of 0.4 percent on Friday. The most worried economists are those who follow China’s often turbulent monetary policy. The central bank oversaw a huge stimulus effort in 2009 and 2010 in response to the global economic slowdown, rapidly expanding its issuance of money and then encouraging banks to lend and relend it. Broadly measured, the money supply surged 53 percent in two years. The extra cash has sent infl ation at the consumer level surging to more than 6 percent even by offi cial measures, which tend to understate true infl ation for methodological reasons. With infl ation now running at more
than twice the regulated interest rate paid by banks for deposits, millions of Chinese have been betting their savings on real estate. That frenzy had been sending property prices through the roof, at least until the last couple of months. But this year, to fi ght infl ation, the Chinese financial authorities have veered in the other direction, setting strict administrative quotas on new loans. And they have ordered the mostly state-owned banks to park more than a fifth of their assets at the central bank, which further limits the banks’ ability to lend — and businesses’ ability to borrow. Orchid Chen, the sales director of the Fujian Yuandong Electric Motor Group, which makes motors in Fu’an in southeastern China’s Fujian province, said that banks were strictly following Beijing’s instructions. “The smaller enterprises have found it difficult to secure any type of lending from banks,” she said. “We are a good-sized company and still have support from the banks, though our loan rates have been adjusted upward two to three times this year already.” Diana Choyleva, a Hong Kong-based economist for Lombard Street Research, predicted that the combination of tighter monetary policy with a likely slowdown in foreign demand for China’s exports would result in the Chinese economy’s see next page

growing at an annualized rate of only 5 percent in the second half of this year and the first half of next year. “Just as the authorities are managing to hammer down demand growth, the rest of the world is not looking healthy, so there’s going to be an export shock,” she said. Despite the gloomy purchasing managers survey issued Thursday by HSBC and Markit, Donna Kwok, an economist in the Hong Kong offi ces of HSBC, noted that the survey also showed shrinkage in companies’ inventories of fi nished goods. So at least short term, companies may need to maintain production to fi ll orders, instead of meeting them from existing stockpiles. China has been highly successful in creating jobs and shifting unemployment to other countries through its intervention in currency markets. This has kept the renminbi weak and made Chinese exports very competitive in foreign markets, even as it has kept imports expensive for Chinese consumers. That policy, though, could be increasingly hard to continue as high unemployment persists in the West, and Washington lawmakers demand a White House response. Hong Lei, a spokeswoman for the Chinese foreign ministry, said at a news briefi ng on Friday in Beijing that appreciation of
the renminbi was not the answer to American trade defi cits with China. Many large American companies rely heavily on imports from China and are lobbying against the legislative push. Within China, domestic demand is starting to weaken slightly. China’s auto market, the world’s largest by number of vehicles sold, looks fairly strong at first glance, with family vehicle sales up 6 percent in August from a year earlier. But that is a significant slowdown, coming after a decade of almost continuous double-digit growth. More worrisome, the growth in August occurred mainly among Japanese manufacturers in China that were finally fi lling orders as they recovered from the parts shortages created by the earthquake and tsunami last March. Price discounts have begun to spread, even among multinational brands. And many Chinese automakers, which have tended to sell the least expensive and often lowest-quality cars, had sharply lower sales in August — particularly of small minivans and pickup trucks, for which government incentives expired at the end of last year. Then there are real estate prices, which have been soaring in China have for more than a decade. A government survey released on Sunday showed that prices had fallen in August compared to July in 16 cities, nota-
bly Chongqing in western China. And prices stayed fl at in 30 cities, including Beijing and Shanghai, although they did continue rising in 24 other cities. The hardest question to answer in China is whether slower economic growth and continued inflation could lead to more social tensions, which in turn could damage the economy through weaker investment and more cautious spending. Though blue-collar wages have surged over the last decade, tripling in some coastal provinces, the salaries for many white-collar workers, particularly recent college graduates, have been trailing inflation. The central government banned local taxes and fees in rural areas six years ago. And it has been talking for years about whether to start assessing property taxes instead; so far it has experimented with that approach in only a few cities, notably Chongqing and Shanghai. Without a broad base of property taxes, local governments across China raise much of their money by seizing land from peasants with minimal compensation based on the value of recent harvests, rezoning it for industrial or commercial use and then selling the land for far more to developers.

Slashed home prices and interest rates continuing to hover near historical lows aren’t the only enticements currently available to buyers seeking a home purchase bargain. Now, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac are sweetening the pot by offering special limited-time incentives on foreclosed homes, turning what are already good deals into great ones, say the experts. Fannie Mae’s current HomePath incentive, which began June 14, gives up to 3.5 percent in closing-cost assistance to buyers who purchase a HomePath property as a primary residence and close by Oct. 31, 2011. A $1,200 selling agent bonus
owner-occupied property. Additionally, buyers who qualify for HomePath financing can be eligible for reduced down payments and are not required to purchase mortgage insurance or get an appraisal on the property. “We offered this incentive to encourage owneroccupant buyers of our properties. Our HomePath properties are located in communities all over the country, and can be outstanding opportunities for families, particularly fi rst-time home buyers,” says Andrew J. Wilson, senior manager of corporate communications for Fannie Mae. “Many of our properties have been repaired so that they are see next page

in great condition and move-in ready on day one.” For more info, homebuyers can visit www.HomePath.com. Although a similar closing-cost special from Freddie Mac recently expired, those shopping for a foreclosed home from the governmentsponsored enterprise still can take advantage of its HomeSteps SmartBuy program. Eric Will, senior REO sales director for HomeSteps, says that buyers can currently receive a limited two-year home warranty which covers electrical, plumbing, air conditioning, heating and other major systems and appliances. Additionally, Freddie Mac is offering up to 30 percent discount toward the new appliances. On the web, visit www.HomeSteps.com/SmartBuy for more info. Logan Waller, broker/owner of Waller Group Properties in Dallas and a listing agent for Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae, says that it’s rare for these two enterprises to offer incentives like these at this time of year. “Fannie and Freddie are going to great lengths to ensure that they are targeting owner occupants and maintaining home values,” Waller says. “They’re doing this by repairing the homes to average or good condition for the neighborhoods.” “Most of these properties sell very quickly and buyers will usually fi nd themselves in a multi-offer
“Fannie and Freddie are going to great lengths to ensure that they are targeting owner occupants and maintaining home values.” situation,” says Jennifer Thomson, a Coldwell Banker agent in Miami, Fla. “Right now, buying any foreclosure property is a great deal, as most of these properties are priced at current market values, which have drastically declined.” To ensure the best success in fi nding and making an offer on a Fannie or Freddie property, try to enlist an agent experienced in Real Estate Owned (foreclosure) transactions, including a Fannie or Freddie listing agent who has a sales team. Look for agents familiar with the foreclosure market and Freddie/Fannie contracts, in addition to the bank negotiation process, pricing and reduction matrices and repair and marketing strategies. Additionally, hire a local home inspector in the area of the foreclosed home you’re interested in, as most foreclosure contracts allow an inspection period, and use a title company experienced in closing foreclosure properties. Also, if the residence you have your eye on does not include a home warranty, think strongly about purchasing one — which can be purchased and renewed for an average of $300 to $500 each year.
