Couple celebrates 63rd wedding anniversary — thanks to carbon monoxide detectors

BY DAYMOND STEER THE CONWAY DAILY SUN

BARTLETT — A West Side Road couple was lucky live to see their 63rd wedding anniversary after a malfunctioning boiler nearly killed them twice. Both times, carbon monoxide detectors saved them from being poisoned.

At around 1 a.m. on Sunday Dec. 18, the carbon monoxide alarm went off unexpectedly in the home

of Evert and Kirsti Ekbergh. They opened the windows, fetched their cat, Sid, and called their son, Olof, who owns their home and lives next door with his wife, Sharyn.

"If the batteries in the CO detector weren't working, my parents would be dead," said Olof Ekbergh.

"We'd go over there in the morning and find a couple of corpses."

"And the cat," his mother added. see DETECTORS page 8

Boeing departs from Wichita

WICHITA, Kan. (NY Times) — The crowd gathered at the local headquarters for Boeing was euphoric. The company had just won one of the largest military contracts in history.

Thousands of the resulting jobs, Boeing had promised, would be headed here, to the sprawling manufacturing complex where residents have been building airplanes for generations. “It’s good for Kansas, it’s good for Wichita and it’s a great day to be alive here and to profess victory,� said Senator Pat Roberts, part of the political team that spent a decade battling on behalf of the company. “Every once in a while the good guys win.�

That celebration last February was supposed to confirm this city’s enduring status as the “Air Capital of the World.�

But less than a year later, on Jan. 4, Boeing executives solemnly gathered here for another announcement. The jobs would not be arriving after all, they said. Instead, they would shut down all of the company’s local operations by the end of 2013. Barring some unexpected act of salvation, this is how Boeing leaves Wichita after eight decades as one of its biggest employers and most prestigious brands: in a trail of broken promises and bitter recriminations.

Insurgents kill dozens in Southern Afghanistan ––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– WORLD/NATION–––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––

KANDAHAR, Afghanistan (NY Times) — More than two dozen people were killed in a four insurgent attacks in southern Afghanistan that began late Wednesday and continued through Thursday afternoon, Afghan authorities said.

As the violence intensified, a suicide car bomber detonated his explosives Thursday morning outside one of the gates at Kandahar airbase, one of the largest coalition bases in Afghanistan, Afghan and American officials said. At least seven civilians were killed,

including two children, said Zalmai Ayoubi, a spokesman for the governor of Kandahar Province. He said another eight Afghans were wounded, and the death toll could rise.

Ayoubi said the car bomber struck a convoy of vehicles from the American-led coalition, although a coalition spokesman, Sgt. Thomas Dao of the American Air Force, could not confirm that report.

Sergeant Dao said there were no coalition casualties, and that operations at the military base were not disrupted. Qari Yousaf

Ahmadi, a Taliban spokesman, said the insurgents were behind the attack.

Taliban fighters also attacked a police checkpoint in Now Zad District, in Helmand Province, on Thursday afternoon.

At least two police officers and 12 Taliban fighters, including a local commander identified as Mullah Abdul Baqi, were killed in the ensuing gun battle, which went on all morning, said Dawoud Ahmadi, a spokesman for the provincial governor. Another two officers were wounded, he said.

(NY Times) — Proposed changes in the definition of autism would sharply reduce the skyrocketing rate at which the disorder is diagnosed and may make it harder for many people who would no longer meet the criteria to get health, educational and social services, a new analysis suggests.

The definition is under review by an expert panel appointed by the American Psychiatric Association, which is completing work on the fifth edition of its Diagnostic

and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders. The D.S.M, as the manual is known, is the standard reference for mental disorders, driving research, treatment and insurance decisions.

The study results, presented on Thursday at a meeting of the Icelandic Medical Association, are still preliminary, but they offer the latest and most dramatic estimate of how tightening the criteria for autism could affect the rate of diagnosis.

LONDON (NY Times) — The actor Jude Law, the soccer star Ashley Cole, and Lord Prescott, a former British deputy prime minister, were named Thursday on a list of 36 victims of phone hacking who have reached settlements totaling hundreds of thousands of dollars with Rupert Murdoch’s media empire.

The actor Jude Law was among a list of 36 victims of alleged hacking who was said to have reached a settlement with News Corp.

A statement by lawyers representing hacking victims said that Murdoch’s News Group Newspapers, which published the now-defunct News of the World tabloid, had agreed to pay substantial damages on the basis “that senior employees and directors� of the company “knew about the wrongdoing and sought to conceal it by deliberately deceiving investigators and destroying evidence.�

Forest society acquires conservation rights on 6,000 acres surrounding Balsams hotel

new owners, who own the now-protected land,” Difley said. “Like everyone else, we want to see them succeed in renovating and reopening the hotel.”

As part of the transaction, the forest society also acquired a deeded transmission line right-of-way coveted by the controversial Northern Pass proposal.

By acquiring both the conservation restrictions and the powerline rightof-way, the forest society effectively removed the threat that Northern Pass would be able to cross the 5,800 conserved acres without eminent domain.

“While we began this project because of the extraordinary natural attributes of the land, in the end I think this campaign also became a referendum on Northern Pass,” Difley said. “We received donations from far and wide, and in many cases those donors told us that they were driven by a desire to stop the Northern Pass proposal.”

Girl injured and horse killed in hit-and-run

“The driver called when he got to his residence in Sanbornville, and advised that he believed he had struck a horse,” said Lt. Richard Krauss, of the Milton Police Department.

Donovan said the driver should have stopped.

“He said that he thought he only hit a horse, but he left the horse there to bleed to death on the side of the road,” Donovan said.

Blue was euthanized by a vet where he fell.

Donovan said she can’t imagine how her friend felt when Geist didn’t stop.

“She was on the ground, waiting for him, you know, thinking, ‘Where’s he going?’ The one person that could help them in their time of need just abandoned her completely,” Donovan said.

Geist was charged with a Class B felony of fleeing after the crash. He told police he did not see the horse.

Police said it is important to remind drivers that laws protecting horses and their riders on the roads are very old and very clear: Move over and slow down.

MILTON — A Sanbornville man was facing a felony charge Tuesday of fleeing after hitting a horse on a rural road in Milton.

Police said the driver of the car, Lincoln Geist, 84, hesitated after the collision, but then kept on driving.

The teen rider of that horse was thrown to the ground and suffered injuries, while the horse bled internally due to the impact.

Shannon Donovan, the horse’s owner, said drivers should remember they must share the road.

“Blue was a good horse,” Donovan said.

Donovan’s friend was riding Blue at about 3:30 p.m. when she heard a car coming up from behind.

“She told me the last thing she thought was, ‘Why is he going so fast?’ and then the horse wasn’t underneath her anymore,” Donovan said.

The impact threw the teen rider on the ground and broke her pelvis.

“He was hit. He fell over, turned around and was disoriented. He was kind of standing there wondering, ‘Where’s my rider?’” Donovan said.

ranged from $1 to $150,000. Donations came from all over New Hampshire, but appreciation of the Balsams landscape was evident nationwide as gifts were received from 22 states including Hawaii, Arizona, California and other far-flung locales, as well as from Quebec, Canada.

A purchase-and-sale agreement signed in December gave the forest society until Jan. 15 to raise the $850,000 necessary to close the transaction. The conservation restrictions will prohibit further subdivision and commercial development while allowing sustainable forestry and recreational access.

The land that is now protected surrounds the site of the hotel. The land immediately adjacent to the hotel, the golf course and the Wilderness ski area are not part of the conserved area.

The conserved land will include the popular outlook known as Table Rock that offers a spectacular vista across

CONCORD — The Society for the Protection of New Hampshire Forests has completed a transaction with the Tillotson Corp. that conserves much of the land surrounding the historic Balsams Grand Resort Hotel in Dixville Notch.

The forest society acquired conservation restrictions that will forever protect the working forest, habitat, scenic views and 30 miles of recreational trails that the public and Balsams guests have enjoyed for decades.

“We have long sought to protect this special place in New Hampshire,” said Jane Difley, president/forester of the forest society. “We are grateful to the more than 1,500 donors who stepped forward to collectively contribute the $850,000 we needed to make this happen. We are equally pleased that the board of the Tillotson Corporation gave us the opportunity to conserve this land.

County is less dysfunctional than it was To the editor: I feel I should respond to Attorney Robin Gordon’s attack letter posted in the Conway Daily on Jan. 16.

The letter speaks to the socall dysfunction in county government which singles me out and the county sheriff. I will not speak for others in county government but I will speak for myself.

First off, Attorney Gordon opens her letter out, “After reading the articles in the newspaper last week, I am disheartened by the dysfunction in county government.”

I can assure the public that county government was more dysfunctional when Attorney Gordon was there for over 10 years, and the public surely remember her less than stellar prosecution rate. Having said that, it is my judgment: the county needs more fresh blood in the future and continued transparency, not more of same from the past.

Second, Attorney Gordon in her own “out-of-control words” suggested I have called “dedicated employees dishonest.” I believe the majority of county employees are very hardworking and honest but there are a few that I question … and I will leave it at that. I have always felt employees should be treated equally, consistently and fairly based

on their performance and conduct. Attorney Gordon speaks of me “laughing at my colleagues,” that is the furthest thing from the truth, if she had been at that identified meeting she would have known why I chuckled at the chairman’s comments with regards to consistent employment firing policy based on past cases. Once again I will leave it at that.

Third, it is important for the readers to know Ms. Gordon is in and out of the county complex on a regular basis whether it is socially, informally or formally offering legal advice or attending meetings, she is no stranger to the activity in county government. In the past, I thought it was customary for a former elected official to revert back to the private sector. But unfortunately, Attorney Gordon cannot get enough of county government and criticizing newly elected officials; perhaps this is to create political hay in preparation for another run for county attorney in 2012.

One can only hope not!

If the public has any questions or input, I can be reached at 374-3333.

Thank you for allowing me to serve you.

Mattei, Remillard helped me pursue culinary dream To the editor: My name is Jennifer Schneider. I am currently a New England Culinary Institute student. I saw the article of Jan. 6, on “McCarthy cooking up support for sous chef position at Kennett High.”

I am a graduate of the class of 2011 from Kennett High School. I started my dream of becoming a chef at Kennett High School. When I first started the culinary program, I learned a lot about how you can achieve your dreams of becoming a chef, just like mine. As I took the program, it started to grow on me how badly I wanted to continue my education in the culinary field. Then I took my dream one step further and took Culinary Arts II. That is when I wanted to go on to college for my culinary dream.

Chef Mattei and sous chef Tim Remillard encouraged me to go on to college for the culinary dream. They have helped me out so much to get to where I am today. I would have not been able to get where I am today without them there to encourage me to continue the education. I am now working on getting my degree for AOS Baking and Pastry arts. Chef Mattei and sous chef Tim Remillard have my back to encourage me to continue my education today. They believed in what I can do and now I am at the New England Culinary Institute in Montpelier, VT. They are a huge part to getting me this far today, the both Chef Mattei and Sous Chef Tim Remillard.

Problem that candidates elected under cloud of money To the editor: One of the most consistent criticisms of the Occupy Movement has been a lack of focus – lots of issues identified but little direction.

I attended many of the Primary Election festivities in Manchester recently and I can tell you that things have changed. There wasn’t a candidate who could have missed the “Money Out of Politics” signs that sprouted at every candidate’s news conference or other public events. One creative member of Occupy NH even made up a logo for the signs that was half elephant and half donkey to represent the universality of the problem.

Lawrence Lessig in his new book “Republic Lost: How Money Corrupts Congress and a Plan to Stop It” cites numerous examples of how the need for money has been ratcheted up by the cost of modern campaigns. One of the more telling statistics that he discusses is the time spent in committee hearings and deliberative sessions (where the real work gets done) today versus 30 years ago.

Today’s Congress spends less than half the time that it did 30 years ago working on legislation. So what are they doing? You guessed it! Fund raising or going to functions to schmooze with corporate and large dollar supporters. By some estimates, members of Congress spend almost 75 percent of each week in fund-raising activities. Is it any wonder that the Congress accomplishes little.

Lessig uses the first half of his book to convince us — if we needed convincing — that fund raising and the implicit and explicit corruption and shadow of influence that comes with it has isolated the Congress from us (the people) in order to take care of the needs and interests of the major funders. Congress has become deaf to the people!

On Saturday of the weekend before the primaries, Buddy Roemer, former governor of and congressman from Louisiana and Republican presidential candidate, who is taking only small contributions ($100), lambasted his fellow candidates for being in the pocket of special interests because of

their voracious fund raising appetites.

“Let me make some blunt observations about the process by which we select a president. First the 2012 campaign is not about good ideas or innovative thinking it’s about money.

Money has always been important to politics but never have we faced such huge amounts of money wrapped in a lie. The lie is Super PACS. The Supreme Court warned us that corruption in politics is and the appearance of corruption is the biggest threat to the growth and integrity of our democratic republic.”

“Without reforming the money there is no way we’re going to be able to reform the basic institutions of our government.”

“You’re being lied to by our politicians who say anything to get elected and take money anywhere to get elected. The American Presidency has been hijacked by special interests.

The contest has become a joke.”

Roemer went on to criticize the press for not asking a single question about campaign finance reform in any of the sixteen televised debates held over the last four months.

Coincidentally, Jan. 21, is the second anniversary of the now infamous Supreme Court ruling known as Citizens United which conferred the same rights on corporations as on people when it comes to supporting political campaigns. This action opened the flood gates of money into campaigns and Super PACS as the limited established by McCain-Feingold in 2002 were removed thus treating corporations as “persons.”

It should trouble us all greatly that our national elections and the eventual elected candidates are elected under a cloud of money. This spring there will be a discussion series locally on this very topic. Come out and make your feelings known. Oh, and did I mention it, you and I are the only solution as the “addicted” will not do it on their own!

Bartlett resident Olof Ekbergh says the condensation trap from a boiler in his parents house malfunctioned and nearly resulted in his parents becoming victims of carbon monoxide poisoning. One can see where the a flame burned a hole in the part. (COURTESY OLOF AND SHARYN EKBERGH) DETECTORS from page one

Luckily, the couple survived and celebrated their wedding anniversary on Dec. 26.

"It was very scary," said Kirsti Ekbergh. "(But) Sid took it well."

The Bartlett Fire Department and White Mountain Oil and Propane arrived within minutes of being called. The fire department's air tester showed the CO level in the laundry room reached 38 parts per million, which is enough to kill a person in eight hours.

That night the elder Ekberghs slept at their son's home for the rest of the night. CO, an odorless gas, attaches itself to a person's blood cells and deprives the body of oxygen. Several people have already been taken to the hospital this winter for CO poisoning, said Olof Ekbergh, who is a Bartlett EMT. "Even though your blood cells think they are full of oxygen, they are not," said Olof Ekbergh explaining about CO poisoning. "It fools the body."

Bartlett fire chief Pat Roberts said CO is sometimes called the "silent killer" because the gas is undetectable with human senses. Roberts strongly recommends residents purchase CO detectors.

"They are definitely worth the investment," said Roberts.

CO can be released when many types of fuels are burned, and that includes wood fuels.

CO detectors are inexpensive and can be purchased for about $30, said Olof Ekbergh. The devices are easy to install. All one needs to do is plug the device into an electrical socket.

When the Ekbergh's CO detector goes off, it actually gives a verbal warning that said the CO levels are too high. Newer models also give a digital readout that displays the amount of CO in the air.

Avoid purchasing combination smoke/CO detectors because one might be tempted to remove the batteries if the smoke detector goes off

accidentally, said Olof Ekbergh.

Authorities assumed the clothes dryer caused the alarm. However, the CO detector went off again the following night. The CO level in the garage, where the boiler is located, reached 179 parts per million, which could be deadly in a short time. In the house, the CO level reached 59 parts per million, which is still way above acceptable limits.

"If I hear the noise, I'll go out again," said Evert Ekbergh.

No one experienced signs of carbon monoxide poisoning because the alarms went off quickly. Treatment for carbon monoxide involves 12 hours of high oxygen flow.

After the second alarm, the source of the problem was identified as the Laars Mascot boiler, which had only been installed about four years ago.

The Laars Mascot is supposed to be top quality and 98 percent efficient, said Olof Ekbergh.

Four years ago, the Mascot boiler (also sold as the Baxi Luna HT380) was so new that Laars sent a crew to the Ekbergh home to learn how to install that system. Laars is headquartered in Rochester.

After learning about the Ekberghs' problem, Laars sent a technician to the home. The technician believes the problem was the boiler hadn't been cleaned, said Laars product and marketing manager Chuck O'Donnell who added the boilers need to be cleaned annually.

"There's no need for a recall," said O'Donnell. "We take safety concerns very seriously."

Laars said every boiler sold in the United States has to have a design that meet safety standards. Further, Laars test fires every boiler it ships.

Laars didn't build the Ekbergh's boiler. Instead, it was built by a company called Baxi and marketed under the Laars brand. Laars no longer does business with Baxi for unrelated reasons, said O'Donnell. see next page

PRINCIPAL from page one

After 26 years as principal of John Fuller Zangari announced in October that it was time for him to explore other opportunities, both in and out of the educational field. His resignation won't take effect until the end of this school year in June.

"We're going to be on a pretty aggressive timeline," Nelson said. "My target would be to have a candidate hired by the end of March — that would give everybody transition time. We went that route at Pine Tree and it worked out real well with Aimee (Frechette, who took over from Laura Jawitz, who had three months to help mentor her replacement).

Serving on the search committee are Nelson and assistant superintendent Bob Gadomski; Conway School Board members Janine McLauchlan and Dick Klement; John Fuller administrative assistant Gretchen Bradley, who is representing the Conway Education Support Personnel union; John Fuller resource room teacher David Olson , who is representing the Conway Education Association union; John Fuller cook Jamie Pandora, who is representing the American Federation of State County and Municipal Employees union; John Fuller teachers Val Jackson and Kim White; Pam Stimpson, director of special services for SAU 9; Frechette, principal at Pine Tree Elementary School; and Kelley Murphy, a parent and head of the John Fuller PTA. The deadline for candidates to submit applications for the post is Feb. 3. The committee will begin reviewing applications the first week in February and hopes to schedule initial interviews soon after that. The chosen candidate would officially start work on July 1. New principals have traditionally received an initial two-year contract.

"I would hope we'd get a pool of 13-14 applicants," Nelson said.

The principal job has been advertised across the country on the Internet and in educational publications and newspapers.

"This 230 student K-6 elementary school in the beautiful Mount Washington Valley seeks an instructional leader with experience in school administration," states the posting for the job. "The successful candidate will provide leadership for all building programs and activities; work collaboratively with staff to develop and implement action plans for raising student achievement; support and foster current instructional practice; coordinate hiring, supervising and evaluating staff; coordinate and monitor the budget process; and serve as a visible and articulate presence within the community to enhance support for education.

The Laars Mascot wasn't combusting effectively, and that was causing "mini explosions," said Olof Ekbergh, adding the mini explosions made a "woof" noise. The technician told the Ekberghs the problem was with the boiler's "low fire setting."

Olof Eckbergh says the boiler was cleaned 16 months ago. The boiler's flame was going down into the condensation trap, which was made of

“We’re going to be on a pretty aggressive timeline. My target would be to have a candidate hired by the end of March — that would give everybody transition time.”

N.H. principal certification/eligibility required. Starting salary range $70,000-$73,000 (215 days) depending on experience. The Conway School District offers a competitive benefits package."

Applicants are asked to send letter of interest, resume, verification of N.H. certification/eligibility, transcripts, application, and three letters of reference to superintendent Nelson.

For the K-6 job, applicants must meet the following qualifications: 1. New Hampshire certification as principal.

2. Master’s degree in the area of elementary education/administration.

3. Minimum of three years of successful teaching experience.

4. Such alternative to the above qualifications as the board may find appropriate and acceptable.

Zangari has been at the helm of John Fuller since July of 1986 but has been within SAU 9 for longer than that. Prior to accepting the post in North Conway, Zangari was a teaching principal in Jackson at the Jackson Grammar School.

"It might seem like a long time, but it also seems to me like it's flown by, like a minute," Zangari said when he announced his retirement.

He hopes to remain in this area, but said if he does relocate it will only be temporary as the Mount Washington Valley is now his home.

"I'm looking at a lot of things," Zangari, 56, said. "I'm looking both far and wide both in and out of the field."

Zangari believes the time is right for a change at John Fuller.

"The time is right for me," he said.

"I think the school is in a good place.

I've certainly appreciated my time in Conway. As noisy at it can get at times, people have always been there when we've needed anything. The staff and the people in this building are all wonderful."

Nelson has nothing but praise for Zangari.

"Mark has done just an outstanding job here in the district," he said.

"He's been exceptional and he'll be extremely difficult to replace. I know the John Fuller community is really going to feel the loss."

Zangari makes the second longstanding principal to retire from the district in two years, joining Laura Jawitz, who served as principal of Pine Tree School for 23 years before retiring in June.

hard nylon. The fire burned a hole in the trap. The hole allowed CO and unburned propane to escape and then enter the home, said Olof Ekbergh.

The condensation traps should be made metal to prevent similar problems from happening in the future, said Olof Ekbergh. He said unfortunately, the replacement part was exactly the same as the one that failed.

"This should be a recall or at least a service bulletin," said Olof Ekbergh.

"This is crazy."

The kerfuffle began during the public comment portion of the meeting when Wakefield resident Steve Brown questioned why commission chair David Sorensen said last week that commissioner Asha Kenney was not invited to the Mount Washington Valley Economic Council's Eggs and Issues breakfast forum, which was held on Jan.12. The forum was a discussion on the workings of county government.

Brown said he spoke to the economic council's executive director, Jac Cuddy, and found out that the forum was open to everyone, including Kenney.

"You're not being transparent, Mr. Chairman," Brown shouted at Sorensen. "You're not being transparent. When you're not transparent this is why these questions come up. Tell the truth! " Brown said he tends to shout because he lost 30 percent of his hearing.

In response, Sorensen said last week he knew he was invited but didn't know who else was invited.

A moment later, Sorensen said he knew last week that two commissioners were going to attend. After that, Sorensen amended his position again by saying last week he knew that two commissioners received invitations.

Sorensen also said he never said the forum wasn't open to everyone.

"I did not mean to exclude the third commissioner when I said two people were invited," said Sorensen adding it was his understanding the two northern commissioners and the four northern state representatives were going to be on the panel.

Kenney didn't attend Eggs and Issues because there was a snowstorm that morning. Kenney, of Wakefield, lives a considerable distance from the Mount Washington Valley. Kenney said Sorensen decided to exclude her from Eggs and Issues.

"I talked to him (Cuddy) and he said that was not true and he would never exclude me," said Kenney.

Then Brown began asking about an e-mail the economic council sent to commissioner Dorothy Solomon about the event. Solomon, who lives in Albany, said she received the e-mail because she's a member of the council.

The e-mail didn't instruct her to invite anybody, she said.

Brown accused Solomon of not inviting Kenney and wondered if she invited former commissioner Chip Albee, who, like Solomon, is a Democrat.

"Mr. Brown you are being irrational and unreasonable," exclaimed Solomon after banging on the table to get Brown's attention.

Brown, a burly man, responded to

ing a commissioner in a "blatant lie."

Wakefield resident Steve Brown yelled at county commissioners David Sorensen and Dorothy Solomon about their reaction when asked whether commissioner Asha Kenney was welcome to speak at a recent breakfast see next page

Solomon, who is a petite senior citizen.

"You want to start slamming stuff, commissioner Solomon?" screamed Brown. "I can play that game too!"

Brown filed a right-to-know-law request for the e-mail from the economic council.

Eventually the commission asked a sheriff's deputy to keep the peace. The deputy watched part of the meeting and then left after Sorensen excused him.

At the meeting of Jan. 11, members of the public, including Brown, asked Sorensen why he said only two commissioners were going to go to the forum.

At the Jan. 11 meeting, Sorensen said only two members were invited to Eggs and Issues. Further, only the representatives from Mount Washington Valley were invited. Sorensen directed Brown to call Cuddy to find out exactly who was invited. Meanwhile, Kenney sat by silently.

On Wednesday afternoon, Cuddy confirmed that Kenney was welcome to attend Eggs and Issues. He said Solomon suggested having the the Eggs and Issues forum about county government. Cuddy said an organizer sent Solomon an e-mail instructing her to confirm the date the commissioners would be a available for the forum.

Brown was also been upset the with the commission for awarding the bid to install the nursing home's wood pellet boilers to Bonnette, Page and Stone, of Laconia, for a price of $375,000. BPS was the only company to bid on the project. Brown has been pushing the commission to audit of the entire bidding process. He believes the $375,000 price tag is too high. Brown also wanted to see more companies bid on the work.

Brown also accused Albee of advocating for BPS because of an apparent "connection."

Albee refuted Brown's assertion that he had a hidden agenda to promote BPS. Albee said BPS kept the $23.5 million nursing home project under budget by $2 million. Further, BPS has the capability to provide oversight for the project.

"If we want to slander people, go right ahead," said Albee to Brown. "I'd like to know what your connection to reality is."

Earlier in the meeting, Barry Dodier, of First Response Plumbing and Heating in Center Conway, inquired if the pellet boiler installation bid had been awarded. Dodier said he was "stunned" by the price and the fact that the county didn't get any other bids to do the work.

Dodier didn't know the specifications for the county's project and said he now realizes his company was too late to bid on the job.

Lack of backup power at recreation center leaves 'big hole' in town's emergency plan

forum. Brown was so disruptive a sheriff's deputy had to be called in. Some people became uncomfortable and left the room.

"Everybody was getting nervous," said Sorensen on Thursday.

On Thursday, Brown said he wasn't trying to threaten the commissioners and said having the deputy stand guard at the meetings is a waste of money. Brown feels Solomon and Sorensen were attempting to mislead Kenney into thinking she wasn't invited to the Eggs and Issues breakfast forum held by the Mount Washington Valley Economic Council.

At a previous meeting Sorensen said he and Solomon were invited because they are Mount Washington Valley residents. Brown later learned that Kenney, a Wakefield Republican, was welcomed too. Kenney chose not to attend because there was a snowstorm that morning.

"I believe Sorensen and Solomon are colluding together against commissioner Kenney," said Brown adding he wouldn't have been so upset if Sorensen admitted to being mistaken. "When elected officials blatantly lie that's what pisses me off."

After the meeting, Solomon asked the sheriff's office to provide a deputy at commissioners' regular meetings on Wednesday mornings. Sheriff Christopher Conley called Solomon's request "reasonable" and confirmed that he will.

The sheriff's office and the county commissioners haven't been on the best of terms. Most recently, the commission has accused the sheriff of illegally hiring a prosecutor and of acquiring two Hummers outside of the proper budget process.

"Based on the record, the commissioners are trying to cast aspersions on the sheriff's office to deflect from issues in other areas of the county," said Conley, adding those issues include excessive spending on legal fees and an ongoing debate about the cost of the nursing home's new pellet boilers.

Still, Conley said he wouldn't try to get even by withholding protection. No criminal charges have been filed against Brown.

BY ERIK EISELE THE CONWAY DAILY SUN

CONWAY — Displaced residents relied on Conway recreation center for a place to sleep in the wake of Irene, but officials are worried the shelter could be rendered unusable without one major change.

The shelter has no backup power, emergency management director Steve Solomon told the selectmen last week, which represents a “big hole in our emergency plan.”

If a hurricane or an ice storm knocked out the power, he said, the shelter would become useless.

“We can’t sit around and stare at this any longer.”

The one problem, however, is the price tag.

Solomon told the selectmen he priced out what the town needed in 2010 at $45,000, but since then new codes have come into effect that will require a bigger generator. The town now needs a 100-kilowatt generator. “It’s significantly more money for a generator of this size,” he said, almost $59,000.

And even that isn’t an ideal solution, Solomon said, because the 100-kilowatt generator would be running well below capacity. That would mean it would be running inefficiently, he said, which would be bad for the generator and would use more fuel.

“Do we look at rewiring portions of the building so

we could use a smaller generator?” he said. That’s one option, but he’s still working out the best way to deal with the challenge.

There were other questions about the suitability of the rec center as a shelter since it has only one shower, but Solomon said it’s the best option available. Schools seem like attractive options, he said, but the high school could easily become an island if the road to it were rendered impassable.

What’s more, Solomon said, during Irene people stayed at the rec center through the start of classes.

“If the shelter had been in a school we would have had a problem.”

“There’s no perfect solution,” he said. If the shelter winds up needing more showers, the town can bring in a mobile bathroom unit. If it were winter it would be cold, he said, but it would do the job.

The generator, however, is something for which the town has no contingency. Solomon is looking for grants that could cover the cost of one, he said, because there has been little enthusiasm for paying for it through a warrant article.

At the end of the discussion between Solomon and the selectmen, town engineer Paul DegliAngeli pointed out the town garage is also without a backup generator, which could also pose a problem in a major storm.

County hires Portsmouth lawyer to investigate employee grievance OSSIPEE — County commissioners named the lawyer who will investigate a county employee's grievance against county commissioner Asha Kenney.

Commission chairman David Sorensen acknowledged the existence of the grievance at the meeting on Jan. 11. He said the grievance was filed against Kenney for "conduct." At that meeting he said the commission hired a lawyer to help commission-

ers determine if the grievance has merit. However, Sorensen declined to identify the lawyer during that meeting.

On Wednesday, Sorensen confirmed that commissioners hired Daniel Schwarz who is a partner at Jackson Lewis LLP in Portsmouth.

Sorensen said he was reluctant to release the lawyer's name last week because Schwarz had yet to sign the agreement.

R.J. doing his aerials in the Big Sky

BY TOM EASTMAN THE CONWAY DAILY SUN

CONWAY — He was no choir boy, but boy, could he ski. And flip. And play tennis, baseball and basketball.

“The valley lost another Valley original,” is how Nora Mulkern Bean of the Shannon Door described the passing Jan. 12 of fearless freestyle ski pioneer and veteran Cranmore ski patroller Ralph “R.J.” Shaw at 71.

We ran into Nora after taking our Meister run down a windy and hard-packed but sunny Meister course in Week 2 at Cranmore Wednesday.

“R.J. worked for my dad at the Wentworth Golf Club teaching tennis to all of us — the Rivers kids (Julie, Jonathan and Peter), and us Mulkerns. He was a true character,” said Nora, co-proprietor of the Shannon Door Pub. Like the late Doug “the Rooter” Campbell, R.J. was a ski-loving valley character, who may not have been a role model for clean living, but who nonetheless had his legions of fans.

Friends will tell you R.J. lived his life hard, on and off the slopes. No one, however, can take away his love for the sport, and his ability as a pioneering freestyle skier in the early days when he would do flips at Cranmore and the now defunct Tyrol.

We stopped by the new and improved Meister Hut shack prior to our run Wednesday, where we interviewed longtime R.J. friend and skiing buddy Eric Styffe, as well as friends Doug McDonald and Dave Clancy.

“There was a big picture that used to be in Rick Oaks’ office here at Cranmore showing him doing a flip off the South Slope off the Gibson Rock, which isn't there now — they moved it or blasted it before they made Jimmy's Trail. Also, where the old patrol shack was located where you used to get off the quad, there was so much snow one year

Serving as the secretary and co-chair for educational committee will be Michelle Cruz-Lottmann who currently works at the Mount Washington Observatory and holds a degree in education.

that R.J. and Bobby Haynes used to do flips off the roof there when Bobby was probably 18 and Ralph was 28,” said McDonald.

“I knew R.J. for 42 years,” related Styffe, the ever-yodelling, smooth-skiing, Schneider-capped, veteran ski school instructor who moved up from Massachusetts in '69-'70. “I'm not sure why,” he demurred, “but there was quite a freeze between the ski patrol and the ski school at the time, as they didn't get along very well. R.J., who was on patrol, and me, being on ski school, decided to bridge that, and we did. We broke that tension and we became pretty good friends. He was quite an athlete — he played semi-pro baseball, and he tried out in basketball for the Lakers, I believe, but didn't make it.”

FREESTYLING: Styffe related how he and R.J. drove over to Waterville Valley in the early '70s, the first time they had freestyle over there with such stars as Wayne Wong when the sport was in its infancy.

“It was the first one they held, so he and I drove over and signed up,” said Styffe. “We were doing the mogul runs.R.J. went first.

There was a flat area in front of me [on the course], and I couldn't see him anymore, but all I could hear was the crowd going crazy. I said to myself, 'Well, I better put on a good show here because he really has everyone going good.'

“So,” said Styffe, “I get to the bottom and I had a pretty good run, and I was talking with him and I said, 'You must've had a helluva run, because I could hear everyone cheer,' and he said, 'Eric, I fell all the way to the bottom, and the crowd loved it.'

And that's the truth.”

“He loved this mountain and skiing,” said Styffe, who has been part of the heart of Mountain Meisters since its beginnings with 15 teams in 1972 on the South Slope when it began as the Local Yokel.

R.J. was a paratrooper with the U.S. Army 82nd Airborne Division

Kennett Middle School, will be serving as co-chair of the educational committee and chair of the Volunteer Committee.

Jill Burrows, who currently serves as the development director for Memorial Hospital will be sharing her expertise in serving on the Special Events Committee.

from 1957 to 1960. (He once told me some tales about being in Vietnam before we were officially sending troops there, but that's another story). In addition to his ski patrol work, R.J. was a longtime Mountain Meister course official. He also was a veteran Mud Bowl chain gang volunteer who was named to the Mud Bowl Hall of Fame three or four years ago.

OUTSHINING STEIN: Dr. Jim Frenette, a member of the Cranmore Ski Patrol, and wife Kathleen were at Cranmore Wednesday. Jim related the following R.J. tale — one of many.

“It was the last day of the season,” said Frenette, “and we're making the last ski patrol sweep.

R.J. starts telling me his Stein Eriksen story. He says he skied all over the country, I guess, with Stein — I have nothing to back this up — it's R.J.'s story. Anyway, the guys who traveled with him on this tour were supposed to go do spread eagles before Stein and then Stein would do his famous flip. R.J. sees it and says, 'Hell, I can do that!' So, he goes off and does a forward flip. Perfectly, and the audience goes crazy — he did it better than Stein. And he says Stein came up to him afterward and says, 'Don't you ever do that again!' You know, showing him up!”

“So, anyway,” continued Frennette, “we're making our way down the last sweep at Cranmore, on the last day of the season, some time in the '80s, when we were in our late 40s, and as he was telling me that Stein story, R.J. sees the halfpipe, and he says, 'You know, I think I can still do that flip.' So, he goes down to the halfpipe, and goes off the edge and does a forward flip, but he didn't finish it.

He came down on his shoulder and neck. I thought he had killed himself! Turns out he broke his collarbone.”

But, Frenette said, that's not the end of the story. see next page

challenges that always impact our arts community and its role in the Mount Washington Valley," DeLancey said. "Vince Pelote, as the new chairman of M&D, along with the new M&D Productions board of directors, continues a 11 plus year legacy to awaken community-based action around social issues through the venue of theater, while collaborating with others to make our community a better place to live."

“So,” said Frenette, who is an orthopoedic surgeon in Bridgton when not ski patrolling, “I put him in a sling and everyone was partying, and we leave and I'm driving him to the hospital.

He asks me what I think they'll do for him there. I say, you know, they'll do an X-ray and put you in a sling. He said, 'Turn the car around. Let's go to the party.'

Typical R.J.” Veteran Cranmore patroller Scott Gleason always looked up to R.J. like he was an older brother.

“I remember skiing behind R.J. a lot as we worked ski patrol at Mount Cranmore,” noted Gleason, who is the son of former North Conway librarian Carrie Gleason and the late Wes Gleason. “I and others were always trying to emulate his style and grace. Bobby (Pup) Haynes was another very smooth and graceful skier. I heard that RJ did not start skiing until he was 26 and quickly became one of the best skiers in the valley.

“The best compliment I ever received,” he added, “was one cold winter day in the late '70s.

A person I did not know skied up next to me after stopping and said 'Sorry, I thought you were R.J. ... you ski very much like he does.' If it had been warmer weather that would not have happened because R.J. always wore his signature baseball cap and sunglasses.”

••• TENNIS: In search of more tales, I phoned Peter Pinkham to query him about R.J., his old doubles partner from the 1960s, when Peter — now co-proprietor with his wife Linda of Pinkham Real Estate — ran the Eastern Slope Inn. “Ralph and I played a lot of tennis together as a doubles

team. Those were the days when the inn would challenge Jackson, as well as teams from Bedford, where there were a lot of tennis players. Ralph was a great athlete, and we won more than we lost,” said Pinkham. Alluding to R.J. always doing things his way, Pinkham chortled and said, “Ralph was well-known for having thrown a tennis racket further than anyone else, showing his disgust with one of his shots. He had his troubles, and he had a way of always wanting to do things his way, but he was a great athlete and a good friend.”

At the end these past few months, Styffe drove him around to his medical appointments.

“I was with him the night before he passed. He was down to 100 pounds. What did he die from? It's more a question of what he didn't have. He was a good friend, and he will be missed,” said Styffe.

A prayer service for R.J. is scheduled to be held at 9:30 a.m.

Saturday at Furber and White in North Conway, followed by visiting hours from 10 a.m. to noon.

In lieu of flowers those who wish may make donations to the

So long, R.J. Here's to your making those spectacular flips smoothly in the sky from now on.

The implications of both acts stretch further than YouTube, but let’s continue to use that site as our example. It is true, a lot of videos on YouTube are blatant re-postings of copyrighted material and it is understandable why the copyright holders would want to stop this, but there are concerns that SOPA would be throwing out the baby with the bathwater.

There’s a good deal of content on YouTube that uses copyrighted material in interesting and creative ways. A popular trend for the last few years has been movie trailer mash up, which will take the audio from one film and match it with another. The better

ones are done with a real sense of wit and skill. A recent example of this combines the new “Dark Knight Rises” trailer with “The Lion King” with striking results.

If the fears about SOPA are true, the act could potentially put an end to content like this.

Use of copyrighted material in this way falls under fair use which allows for some of the content of a work to be used in a parody. Copyrighted material also falls under fair use in criticism and scholarly work. Using part of a song or video is comparable to quoting a literary work.

I personally encounter fair use issues on YouTube often when posting videos that feature clips of movies I am reviewing. Even

though the video falls under fair use, it is flagged. Nothing usually happens and the video still stays up, but with SOPA it could be potentially taken down. Supporters of SOPA say that this is too extreme a reading of the law, but those against it don’t want to even head down a path that could lead to censorship.

The loss or crippling of a site like YouTube would be huge.

While for many YouTube is just a 24/7 version of “America’s Funniest Home Videos,” it is also a valuable platform for aspiring filmmakers, animators, actors, musicians and other artists to share their work and opinions.

Silencing any part of it would be a tremendous loss.

Looking Forward to a great

NEW YEAR

MACDONALD MOTORS WOULD LIKE TO TAKE A MOMENT TO THANK OUR LONG TERM EMPLOYEES AND TO THOSE WHO HAVE JOINED OUR FAMILY IN MORE RECENT YEARS!

You go girl and guy Skiing –––––

Mike Crowther's girls love to race. And so does he.

"We are competitive," Marty Basch says the skier from Marshfield, Massachusetts. "I am no longer competitive with my older daughter (13), but I still have an edge on my ten year old."

Translation. His teenage daughter beats him.

But in the end, it's for a good cause.

"This really is a great cause and great to see as a fund raiser," he said.

For the third consecutive year, Attitash is hosting a three-race series to fight cancer. The U Go Girl Race Series began last Saturday as 80 racers competed in a single giant slalom course through the Race Arena on Lower Spillway outside the main base lodge as the temperature hovered near twenty.

There are new twists to the race. The series now benefits the valley's non-profit Jen's Friends Cancer Foundation which helps local families through financial assistance and other resources, the dates have changed, and men can compete. see SKIING page 18

Previously, the competition helped raise funds to battle breast cancer through the Susan G. Komen for the Cure foundation. About $800 was raised last ski season. But race organizers wanted to keep the money in the valley, so a new partnership was born.

"Jen's Friends helps out families in the valley," said Attitash race and events director Corey Madden. "We felt we wanted to be part of the local community instead of a larger pool.

This really was a no brainer and uses racing to promote a good cause."

Madden says this season's goal is to raise $1,000 for Jen's Friends. Saturday's race took in $400 for the cause.

"Last year we had 16 people turn out for the first race," said Madden. "It was on a Sunday and there was bad weather. This year we changed the day to Saturday during MLK weekend."

The series began with the low level GS. The second stop is a longer course Feb. 19 on Spillway's Coaches Knoll while the final race is a head-to-head dual GS on Feb. 26 on Spillway.

Only the female competitors compete for points and placement. Males are now welcome to compete, but don't get points or placement.

"We decided to add guys because many of them have loved ones or friends affected by cancer," said Madden. "They wanted to be a part of this."

The U Go Girl Series isn't the only sport and outdoor oriented fund raiser for Jen's Friends. The annual fall Climb Against Cancer has participants hiking up a ski area — Cranmore — while raising money.

Jen's Friends president Corinne Reidy of North Conway welcomes the

new partnership.

"Corporations like Attitash, like Cranmore are willing to help us," she said. "They are business leaders in the valley that help organizations like Jen's Friends and help people that support them."

Skiers of varied ages and abilities come to race to unleash their inner Bode Millers and Lindsey Vonns.

From age five to sixty-plus, some come to win while others just to be part of something they hold dear.

Noticeable were the number of tiny skiers from the mountain's Racing And Development program or RAD. Still too young for the Attitash race team, they are in the early stages of ski racing.

Ralph Coluntino of Beverly, Massachusetts was signing up seven little racers aged seven to nine for the competition.

"The kids need the practice and are having fun doing it," said Coluntino.

"They learn a lot of things that people take for granted. They learn how to put on a race bib and learn how to come out of a starting gate. While on the course they learn how to get out of sliding through turns and to get up on their edges."

Race entry is $10 (plus a lift ticket).

Madden says the series attracts many season pass holders. Locals might take advantage of the two upcoming Sunday race dates with the ski area's afternoon lift ticket ($30 starting at noon) after first registering between 8 and 11 a.m. in the south wing of the main base lodge.

"It is nice to see the tons of kids coming in and the older folks too," said Reidy. "Whether they want to win or not they are all showing up to support the fight against cancer."

Robert Burns night at the Corner House Inn Jan. 29

SANDWICH — The 15th annual celebration of Robert Burns night is at the Corner House Inn in Center Sandwich Jan. 29. Robert Burns nights are celebrated all over the world – “Wherever there are Scots” – as a way to honor all things Scottish and keep tradition alive.

This is an evening of verse, songs, piping and Highland dancing and a delectable Scottish dinner put on by the talented Corner House culinary team.

And, of course, the traditional Haggis is part of the feast. The festivities begin at 5:30 p.m. Highland dress or not.

Back by popular demand, Pipe Major Gordon Webster (former piper to HM Queen Elizabeth) and his clan from the N.H. School of Scottish Arts — wife, Lezlie, daughter, Marielle, and son, Campbell, will be providing much of the evening’s entertainment. They are joined by well

known Tamworth resident and British Isles storyteller Marion Posner, who will share some entertaining insights into the Burns night tradition.

For more information and reservations contact the Corner House Inn at 284-6219 or info@cornerhouseinn.com.

One of the largest Carroll County volunteer efforts that is coordinated through the cooperative extension is the Veggie Volunteer Program, a community-based effort that provides nutritious fresh produce to low-income persons. This effort is made possible through the generosity of the produce from the Sherman Farm in East Conway, and the volunteer assistance of a wide range of helpers. It is coordinated by the Carroll County UNHCE Master Gardeners Program. The surplus nutritious fresh produce is harvested, packed and distributed to local food pantries, senior centers and other organizations that serve lowincome audiences.

ALBANY — Knitting is the perfect antidote to life in the fast world we live in. It offers a very tangible way to connect with yourself and to create something truly useful as well as beautiful. In a world where technological advances such as electronic books, food processors, bread machines, etc, have deprived us of many of life's tactile pleasures, the feeling of yarn and the steady repetition of stitch after stitch is a restorative tonic, producing not a virtual experience that can be altered with a single click, but a real and tangible something.

The White Mountain Waldorf School will host an open house on Jan. 21 from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. on the topic of the benefits of knitting.

In Waldorf schools, knitting is one component of the first grade curriculum and kindergarten children are taught to finger knit before they learn to do math. Do you wonder why? First, it teaches them to follow patterns (in through the front door, once around the back, out through the window and off jumps jack). It also develops their fine motor skills, which will be put to the test in the coming years.

Forms of handwork such as knitting, crocheting and sewing are critical to a child’s intellectual and emotional development. Knitting not only energizes children’s tactile senses but it is also instrumental in intellectual development. Students learn math, spatial and geometric skills when knitting and sewing. Whether it is first-graders counting stitches in each row of their squares or flute cases, or fourthgraders creating and embroidering geometric patterns, handwork gives them a concrete visualization of what addition and multiplication do; plus, they learn about problem solving and logic.

Carroll County UNH Cooperative Extension has had an eventfilled year that would not have been possible without the support of an active community of volunteers. There are plenty of examples how local volunteers support the work of extension educators. They are brought together by a common interest in preserving and improving our natural surroundings, helping local residents, and supporting youth programs. Their efforts have made a positive difference in the quality of life for many Carroll County residents.

The 12 members of the Carroll County UNHCE Advisory Board are the foundation of volunteers, meeting throughout the year to stay informed on local initiatives and advise staff on program planning and operations. Their collective understanding of the needs of the community provides support and direction to UNHCE staff members.

Wendy Scribner, extension educator for forest resources, has been active this past year in supporting the N.H. Coverts Project, which trains volunteers to promote wildlife habitat conservation and forest stewardship. She is also a source to learn more about The Natural Resources Stewards Program which trains volunteers in project areas that enhance community ecosystems. Scribner recently trained volunteers to help identify, measure, and record big trees here in Carroll County. According to Scribner, “Through volunteer programs like Coverts and Natural Resource Stewards, people get training and information about a variety of natural resources. They then take this information back to their communities and put it to

Historical society hosting Karen Sulewski Jan. 20

The historical society will be hosting Karen Sulewski of the Remick Museum on Jan. 20 at 7:30 p.m. in the historical society’s building at the end of Old Pound Road. There is a lot that goes on at the Remick and there are plans to do more. The museum also serves as a working farm and disseminates the knowledge it takes to run it to all interested parties through workshops and hands on training. Ms. Sulewski will be speaking on both the history and the programs maintained and provided by the museum. As always some really good refreshments will be served after the talk.

Last Tuesday evening the selectmen held a public hearing on the proposed new wood fired boiler to be installed in the municipal offices. The meeting opened with the announcement that the grant had already been accepted by the selectmen at last week’s meeting; leaving all discussions suffering somewhat from being after the fact.’There were about eight residents on hand to gather information and ask questions.

By the end of the meeting there seemed to be no one in the audience who was set against a future utilizing wood pellets over more traditional gas or oil heating systems.

The pellet boiler will be purchased with federal grant money. This grant was initially pursued by selectmen Meisner, Piekut and Eldridge prior to the last election cycle. Effingham’s application was approved by the granting authority, but the selectmen at the time did not want to accept it because of worries over honoring all the restrictions and the possibility that the town might be liable for costs if those restrictions were not satisfied. These restrictions required American parts and labor, but over the last year or so most of the bugs arising from this requirement have been worked out in other towns that have used the same grant to install boilers of their own. Consequently select-

men Slack and Swanik felt comfortable enough to assure those present that the process will go well so they resubmitted the original grant application which was granted and they accepted it. It is anticipated that the grant monies will cover the cost of both purchase and installation of the new system.

Residents in the audience asked some very good questions: there were at least two people with deep working knowledge of heating systems who were able to convince the selectmen that certain technical questions pertaining to the size of boiler, availability of repair services for a new technology, understanding of the wood-pellet market’s pricing options and considerable concerns that there may be hidden costs which will have to be borne by the property tax were all topics that the selectmen needed to bone up on prior to spending any of the money. These discussions arose because information provided

by Slack and Swanik tended to focus purely on the cost savings to residents of acquiring a new heating system with federal tax money instead of property tax money; a view point agreed with in principal by those attending, and their simple preference for renewable energy over fossil fuels, a viewpoint not really brought up or discussed by the public. It did appear that the selectmen’s understanding and questioning of the technical aspects of the system were enhanced by the public discussion and they agreed to look into the issues raised prior to proceeding.

It was interesting to your reporter that there was almost no discussion of the cost savings derived from fuel choice. There is evidence from Tuftonboro that running a similar wood pellet boiler is significantly less expensive than fossil fuels, but the meetings discussion showed that those attending were primarily concerned with the practical aspects of operating a new technology and if it would form a good fit with Effingham.

Tamworth Town Column

Ann McGarity amcgari@yahoo.com

Reception for Joe Rancourt exhibit at Cook Memorial Library Jan. 20 When my husband and I brag to out of town friends about the wonders of Tamworth, high on the list is the Tamworth Community Nurses Association. A persistent cough had recently left me sleepless, fatigued and “under the weather.” Concerned that it could turn into something serious I paid a visit to The Tamworth Community Nurses located behind the town offices. Head nurse Jo Anne Rainville took my vitals, heard my breathing and administered a “respitory treatment,” suggesting an over the counter remedy. Unbelievably there was no bill. It is so reassuring that the nurses are available for maladies great and small. I was spared a doctor’s visit, the cost of gas, not to mention having to travel when feeling unwell. The nurses will visit those unable to get to the office. When my husband, Don, was released from a hospital stay which included extensive surgery after a road accident he was very weak, confused, and didn’t know how to proceed. Jo Anne came to the house within an hour of the call, changed his dressings, assessed his condition, and called his doctor to get an appointment and a prescription.

The nurses continued to check on Don until he was able to get about on his own. The nurses provide basic nursing services, including blood drawing, and inoculations. The fact that they visit the home bound is very reassuring particularly for our elderly population, mothers alone with young children, and those experiencing post surgical problems. Tamworth Community Nurses Association also coordinates the Meals on Wheels program for Tamworth. Tamworth Community Nurses Association has a very informative website at www.tamworthnurses.org. The nurses never bill for their services but they do gratefully accept donations, and you can donate, using a credit card on the website. You never know when you will need them.

Call them 323-8051 if you have questions.

The Tamworth farmers’ market is beginning its sixth year. Organizers hope to offer a market in every month of the year. The next deep winter market is scheduled for Feb. 11, at the Tamworth Townhouse from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. The off season markets will be smaller than the summer ones, but patrons will be able to purchase the basics for meals featuring organically grown meats and vegetables, and in addition bread, dairy products, maple syrup, jams, pickles.

A hot meal, featuring locally sourced ingredients, will be served. On other Saturdays the Tamworth Lyceum will host smaller markets in their attractive location on Main Street from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m.

Plan to attend the reception for an exhibit of the late Joe Rancourt’s photographs at the Cook Memorial

Library on Friday, Jan. 20, from 5 to 6 p.m. In January 2011, Joe Rancourt, son of Cook Memorial Library director Jay Rancourt, and Robin Rancourt, tragically died as a result of a pneumonia at the age of 29. Three months after his death, his family discovered 1,200 photographs and short films on his camera. They have been a great solace to his family who were given the unexpected gift of seeing Joe’s world through his photos. He took pictures of anything that caught his eyes: shoes, flowers, sunsets, waves, clouds, faces on a train. Jay has selected her favorites for the January artist of the month exhibit.

On Saturday, Jan. 21, dinner will be served at The Other Store,from 5:30 to 7 p.m., with featured cooks Lea Burke, Danielle Mason, Sarah Wright and Betty Schneider. Come along and eat locally sourced food , to support local farms, the local economy and New Hampshire’s working landscape.

The annual Tamworth sled dog race will be held on Saturday and Sunday, Jan. 28 and 29, on Chocorua Lake and surrounding trails. This race is one of the longest running sprint races in the world and runs from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. each day, Access to the start and finish area is on Route 16 with parking in the North bound lane. Approximately 60 sled dog teams will compete in the two-day event. The biggest teams compete in the Pinetree Power Classic, running on an 11-mile course on logging and snowmobile trails.

The Tamworth Outing club sponsors the event , which attracts teams from all over the North East and Canada.

Other events include one, two three, four and six dog races, both amateur and professional. Admission is free for spectators. Proceeds from the conces-

sion stand will benefit the Tamworth Outing club. For more information, contact Stan Coville at 323 8023.

While you are at the library, be sure to visit the exhibit of the history of local dog sledding, which is put up each year by members of the historical society. This year it is at the library.

After the book sale, walk over to the nearby Remick Museum and Farm for the annual winter carnival and Ice Harvest which include sled dog and horse drawn wagon rides, ice harvesting, meeting and greeting mushers and teams, and a concession lunch.

KNITTING from page 20

Whether it is first-graders counting stitches in each row of their squares or flute cases, or fourthgraders creating and embroidering geometric patterns, handwork gives them a concrete visualization of what addition and multiplication do; plus, they learn about problem solving and logic.

Taking on a project like knitting a flute case also helps first-graders learn to manage frustration and understand that mistakes are a natural part of the learning process for everyone. The culminating project in fifth grade is a pair of socks — something that takes the students nearly the whole year to complete; imagine the sense of accomplishment!

Knitting is scientifically proven to increase right and left brain interaction. Because it requires two hands to knit, both sides of the brain are stimulated. Not only is knitting a great way to calm down and relax, but knitting also teaches patience.

In fact, knitting is proven to initiate a “relaxation response” in many people; this can lower blood pressure, improve heart conditions, and even resolve insomnia. Knitting can also improve selfesteem. Creating something beautiful, no matter how simple, makes you feel good about yourself.

It is a creative outlet that can be learned rather quickly. Knowing just the basics will enable the knitter to make something useful and lovely. Also, knitting can help you find companionship. It’s fun to knit and even more fun to knit with others. It’s a wonderful way to share what you know, learn a new skill, or just get support from other people who share your craft. Best of all, since there is always a new project that will prove to be more challenging than the last, there is always more to learn- even for the advanced knitter.

At the open house people can learn to knit, meet other knitters, take a tour of the school and learn about other aspects of the Waldorf Education and why it works. For more details on the open house, or the benefits of knitting call 447-3168, or email info@whitemountainwaldorf.org."

By Holiday Mathis chance for unnecessary problems.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Disable your call waiting for a while and do the equivalent in other areas of your life as well. Arrange things so that once you are really involved in an activity you are unlikely to be interrupted.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21).

You have strong instincts about money now. You’ll make a plan and follow through with it, and soon money will flow to you through new channels. You have a good use for it, too.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19).

Just because you share the same bloodline with a person doesn’t mean that you have similar beliefs. Talks on the topic of religion or politics can lead to trouble among family members.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Certain promises have been made, and this is an excellent time to collect on favors, material items and money owed to you.

You’ll only have to mention it once and wah-lah!

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You’ll easily fall into the tendency to put too much pressure on yourself. Don’t require that you others like and admire you. Mix and mingle with the simple intention of having a good time.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Jan. 20).

You’ll be a person of action right from the start of your new year, and you’ll approach your endeavors with great energy and speed. Regular contact with loved ones will be the key to building relationships over the next three months. Travel and adventure in May will introduce you to new business.

Money will be more plentiful in July.

Aries and Gemini adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 40, 1, 22, 48 and 17.

Get Fuzzy

ARIES (March 21-April 19). Just because it’s the way you’ve always been doing it doesn’t mean it’s the way you have to do it today. Nothing is written in stone. Agreements are broken every day.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). If it’s not going right, you’ll recognize the problem and take action to reverse the trend. Take care not to say “maybe” when what you really mean is “no way.”

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). No matter how perceptive you are at judging people, you’ll make a mistake or two along the way. You won’t be sorry if you err on the side of belief. No one will ever fool you twice though.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). The Latin expression (SET ITAL) quid pro quo (END ITAL) means “something for something.” You’ll get the feeling that someone is doing a favor for you because they expect one immediately from you in return.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You’ll enjoy home decorating and arranging your domestic scene in a way that is pleasing to you and anyone lucky enough to come into your world. You are naturally good at creating an open, friendly environment.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You’ll learn form others as you have conversations that bounce more or less equally from person to person. The one who drones on and doesn’t lob the conversational ball back is not being open to learning LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). The question of whether to add a new gadget to your scene will come up.

Yesterday’s Answer

THE CONWAY DAILY SUN, Friday, January 20, 2012— Page 27

Today is Friday, Jan. 20, the 20th day of 2012 with 346 days left in the year.

Today’s Highlight in History: In 1265, Britain’s House of Commons, which became a model for parliamentary bodies, met for the first time.

On this date: In 1783, U.S. and British representatives signed a preliminary “Cessation of Hostilities,” which ended the fighting in the Revolutionary War. In 1892, the first officially recognized basketball game was played at the YMCA gym in Springfield, Mass.

In 1936, Edward VIII becomes king of the United Kingdom.

In 1945, Franklin Delano Roosevelt, the only president to be elected to four terms in office, was inaugurated to his final term. He died three months later and was succeeded by Harry Truman.

In 1961, John Fitzgerald Kennedy began his presidency with inauguration ceremonies on the newly renovated east front of the Capitol.

In 1981, Ronald Reagan was inaugurated as the 40th president of the United States. That same day, 52 American hostages were released by Iran after 444 days in captivity.

In 1990, at least 62 civilians were killed and more than 200 wounded when the Soviet army stormed into Baku to end what Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev called fratricidal killing between Muslim Azerbaijanis and Christian Armenians.

Also in 1993, Oscar-winning actress Audrey Hepburn died of cancer at her home in Switzerland. She was 63.

In 1995, a strike-shortened National Hockey League season opened with teams playing a 48-game schedule instead of the usual 84.

In 1996, Yasser Arafat was elected president of the Palestinian Authority with 88 percent of the vote.

In 2001, George W. Bush was inaugurated as the 43rd president of the United States. Just hours before leaving office, U.S. President Bill Clinton issued 176 pardons -- a number of them controversial.

In 2003, Britain said it was sending 26,000 troops to the Persian Gulf for possible deployment to Iraq but France said it wouldn’t support a U.N. resolution for military action.

In 2007, U.S. Sen. Hillary Clinton, D-N.Y., became the first former first lady to seek the U.S. presidency when she entered the race for the 2008 Democratic nomination.

In 2009, Barack Obama was sworn in as the United States’ 44th president and the nation’s first African-American chief executive. In an 18-minute inaugural address, he urged the more than 1 million people who braved the sub-freezing weather to hear him in person, to join him to “begin again the work of remaking America.”

Today’s Birthdays: Richard Henry Lee, American patriot and signer of the Declaration of Independence, in 1732; Harold Gray, creator of the comic strip “Little Orphan Annie,” in 1894; comedian George Burns in 1896; Italian film director Federico Fellini and actor DeForest Kelley, both in 1920; country singer Ottis “Slim” Whitman is 88; comic Arte Johnson is 83; astronaut Edwin “Buzz” Aldrin, the second man to set foot on the moon, is 82; director David Lynch is 66; TV host Bill Maher is 56; and actor Lorenzo Lamas is 54.

Help Wanted

DAUGHTER’S BEHAVIOR PUTS HER ON THE BRINK OF BANISHMENT

DEAR ABBY: I caught my 16-year-old daughter, “Krista,” smoking marijuana. I punished her for it, but never told my wife because I was afraid she’d force me to make a decision that I don’t want to make.

I have been married to my second wife for three years. For much of that time, Krista has been a nightmare. When she goes to school, more often than not she’s in the principal’s office for bad behavior. At home she’s worse. She doesn’t listen to anyone. We have tried every type of punishment we can think of and nothing has worked.

Recently, my wife brought up the idea of sending Krista to a boarding school for troubled teens. At first, the suggestion made me angry, but after the marijuana incident I am more receptive to it. I am wracked with guilt. Sending my daughter away makes me feel like a failure as a father. But there may be no other choice. How does a parent know when enough is enough? -- FED-UP FATHER IN MINNESOTA DEAR FATHER: Do not send your daughter away to a boarding school for “troubled teens” without first having a psychologist identify what is troubling her. If you do what your wife is suggesting, your daughter could return home with more problems than she left with. Sending her away should be a LAST resort. Some family counseling should be tried first.

DEAR ABBY: A friend has been confiding in me, telling me her husband abuses her. She says it has gone on the entire 12 years they have been together. He does it in front of the kids,

sometimes even while she’s nursing or holding their youngest. He also threatens to shoot her. I’m afraid for her safety.

She left him once, but went back after he promised to change and temporarily became the charming man she wishes him to be. She knows she needs to leave again, and I have told her I’ll help her in any way I can to make it happen. She’s trying to hold out until she finishes her degree and can financially support the kids on her own. I’m afraid she won’t make it that long. I feel so helpless. I worry that by standing by and not taking some kind of action, I’ll be partly responsible for anything that may happen to the kids. On the other hand, she tells me these things in confidence. What can I do to help? -TERRIFIED FOR MY FRIEND DEAR TERRIFIED: Continue encouraging your friend to leave. A man who abuses, terrorizes and threatens to shoot his wife -- in front of the children, yet -- would have no hesitation about hurting all of them.

By now she should have realized that her abuser will never be the man she imagined him to be. The time to leave is while things are calm -- before his next outburst. In order for him to control her, he needs to keep her dependent. If he senses that she’s nearing a point where she can support herself and the children without him, he could explode.

Make sure she knows how to contact the National Domestic Violence Hotline. The toll-free number is 800-799-7233.

The experts there can help her formulate as safe an escape plan as possible.

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