Economy alters how Americans are moving

LOS ANGELES (NY Times) — The continuing economic downturn has drastically altered the internal migration habits of Americans, turning the flood of migrants into the Sun Belt and out of states like New York, Massachusetts and California into a relative trickle, an analysis of recent federal data confirms.

Essentially, millions of Americans have become frozen in place, researchers say, unable to sell their homes and unsure they would find jobs elsewhere. An analysis of new data from the Census Bureau and the Internal Revenue Service by the Carsey Institute at the University of New Hampshire confirms earlier census assessments of a migration slowdown, but also offers a deeper, stateby-state look at the impact of this shift, which upends, however temporarily, a migration over decades from the snowy North to the sunny South.

The institute’s study compared three years’ worth of data from the Census Bureau’s American Community Survey, which was released early Thursday and covered 2008-10, with the data from 2005-7. Since the survey’s findings are released in three-year increments, this was the first time that researchers had a set of data that included only years since the financial collapse began, allowing them to make a direct comparison to a similar period before the collapse.

(NY Times) — The charges against 16 New York police officers who were arraigned on Friday afternoon as a result of a long-running grand jury investigation into the fixing of tickets for colleagues, family members and friends show that it was a highly organized systematic practice citywide.

The charges, detailed in a huge stack of paper made up of

nearly two dozen indictments with roughly 1,600 criminal counts, include hundreds of instances in which 10 of the officers allegedly fixed traffic tickets. Six other officers were accused of engaging in a wide variety of corruption crimes.

The charges were unsealed Friday morning in State Supreme Court in the Bronx.

Many of the counts are mis-

demeanors, though all the officers, except for two, were charged with felonies.

Ten of the officers are officials in the union that represents police officers, the Patrolmen’s Benevolent Association, the city’s largest police union, and those officers essentially served as liaisons for fixing tickets.

Also among those charged were two sergeants and a lieutenant.

In Greece, anger at Germany and E.U. ATHENS (NY Times) — Every Oct. 28 Greece celebrates “Oxi Day,” or “ ‘No’ Day,” a national holiday commemorating Greek resistance to the Axis powers during World War II. On Friday, those celebrations took on a greater weight. As Greeks suffer from harsh austerity measures, there is growing popular sentiment here that the country has ceded key parts of its sovereignty, and its pride, to its foreign lenders.

Here in Greece, anger is running so high — especially toward Germany, whose Nazi occupation still leaves deep scars here and who now dominates the

European Union’s bailout of debt-ridden Greece — that National Day celebrations were called off on Friday in the northern city of Thessaloniki for the first time ever after crowds shouted “traitor” to the Greek president, Karolos Papoulias.

“I was the one fighting the Germans,” Mr. Papoulias, 82, said on national television. “I am sorry for those who cursed at me. They should be ashamed of themselves. We fought for Greece. I was an insurgent from the age of 15. I fought the Nazis and the Germans, and now they call me a traitor?”

Prosecutor: Criminal court in indirect talks with Qaddafi son

(NY Times) — The chief prosecutor of the International Criminal Court at The Hague said on Friday that he had been in indirect contact with Seif al-Islam el-Qaddafi, the fugitive son of Col. Muammar el-Qaddafi and his one-time heir apparent, about turning himself in to face trial before the court.

The prosecutor, Luis MorenoOcampo, said in a statement that he did not know the whereabouts of Mr. Qaddafi, and he did not identify the parties who were conveying messages for him.

Moreno-Ocampo also did not make clear whether the informal contacts had been initiated by Mr. Qaddafi, who has previously ridiculed the court as a tool of foreign powers hostile to the Qaddafi government. The court issued arrest warrants four months ago, at Mr. Moreno-Ocampo’s request, for Colonel Qaddafi, Seif al-Islam el-Qaddafi and Abdullah al-Sanousi, Colonel Qaddafi’s intelligence minister and brother-in-law, on charges of systematically killing civilians during the early days of the Libyan uprising.

Arnesen to keynote Grover Cleveland Dinner

BY LLOYD JONES THE CONWAY DAILY SUN

CONWAY — Deborah “Arnie” Arnesen, political pundit, radio and TV commentator, former gubernatorial/ congressional candidate and former member of the N.H. House of Representatives will be the keynote speaker at the Carroll County Democrats’ annual Grover Cleveland Dinner next month.

The dinner, slated for Friday, Nov. 11, at the North Conway Grand Hotel, is the Carroll County Democrats' major fund-raiser each year. The theme this year is “Resurgence.”

Arnesen, 58, was the first female gubernatorial candidate in New Hampshire history in the 1992 race and also ran for U.S. Congress in 1996.

A graduate of Vermont Law School, she served in the N.H. House and in 1992 entered the Democratic primary for governor taking on the party chair and a five-term congressman. She beat them both handily but did not prevail in the general election. In 1996, she was the unsuccessful Democratic nominee for Congress.

"Political candidates have a choice.

They can either pander to people's fears in an effort to win or speak the truth in order to lead," was a quote Arnesen was known for during her gubernatorial run in 1992.

In 1990 she was awarded the Council of State Government’s Toll Fellowship which recognizes the 30 best and brightest emerging leaders in the nation from all three branches of government. She was also named Environmentalist of the Year by the N.H. Sierra Club, and Citizen of the Year by the N.H. Association of Social Workers.

She began her radio career in 1988

and has been a mainstay of the media ever since, writing, broadcasting on radio and TV, even bringing her liberal logic to Fox television.

Arnesen will be the highlight of the Nov. 11 Grover Cleveland Dinner, but there will be other speakers as well.

Candidates for congressional office, the governor’s chair, and state legislative office will be on hand. Carol SheaPorter, former congresswoman from the First District, has been invited as have other two contenders for the party nomination to that ballot slot – Joanne Dowdell and Andrew Hosmer; also former congressman and U.S. Senate candidate Paul Hodes, gubernatorial possibles Maggie Hassan, Jackie Cilley and Steven Marchand; state senatorial candidate Jeff Ballard, and a number of State House candidates.

And, of course, Grover Cleveland himself will be there in the person of grandson George Cleveland, who strides into the hall clad in appropriate-to-theperiod dress to the strains of “Hail to the Chief” and launches into a stirring example of 19th century oratory.

Grover Cleveland is best remembered as the only two-term president whose terms of office were not consecutive. He was elected in 1884, defeated in 1888, and re-elected in 1892.

The Nov. 11 event opens with hors d’oeuvres and a social/cocktail hour at 5:30 p.m. at the North Conway Grand in Settlers' Green in North Conway.

Dinner begins at 6:30 p.m. Tickets are $45 a person with the option to add a $10 donation by Nov. 7 to be listed among the friends in the program.

Address is Carroll County Democrats, P.O. Box 337, Conway NH 03818.

Tickets may be also ordered on line at ccnhdemocrats.org.

DIGEST OF STORIES IN THE SUN THIS WEEK

Saturday, Oct. 22 * Jeff Locke says making to the big leagues this summer was "everything I imagined, times a hundred." * Pakistani musicians are creating a cultural "bridge," with performances at schools throughout the valley. * Halfway through New Hampshire's moose-hunt season, 57 percent of permit holders have gotten their moose so far. * Kennett High field hockey team loses to ConVal 1-0 in sudden-death overtime in the first round of the Division II state playoffs.

Tuesday, Oct. 25 * Conway Budget Committee is pushing for a study on whether to close an elementary school, but the school board wants to put the question to voters first. * The town is developing buyback programs for Transvale Acres property owners impacted by Tropical Storm Irene. * A plan to centralize funding sources for local transportation services is greeted with skepticism at a recent county commission meeting. * Conway selectmen achieve two seemingly opposing goals when they vote to leave more money in the rainy day fund while aiming for a lower tax rate. * A volunteer effort is under way to relocate and expand the Madison veterans' memorial.

Tele-Talk Should a study be done before asking voters their opinion on closing an elementary school?

Wednesday, Oct. 26 * Local librarians are fighting to keep funding for their inter-library loan vans, for sharing books and other resources, but a legislative committee is suggesting that there may be other uses for the federal grant money. * A long-simmering feud between the county sheriff and a Conway state representative comes to a head.

Rep. Frank McCarthy extended an olive branch, but sheriff Christopher Conley remained skeptical. * Photographer Bruce Bedford has died, leaving behind a legacy of photographs that chronicled life in Carroll County for the better part of the last 40 years.

The question of whether to close one of Conway’s three elementary schools appears destined to go before voters next spring — one way or the other. The budget committee wants to have a study done first so that voters can make a more informed decision. The school board wants to put a non-binding referendum on the ballot to gauge public support for closing a school before before digging into the details. “If people vote for it, then we’ll do the work,” said board member Rick Breton. But budget committee members say it’s better to hire a consultant first to study the question and provide a recommendation. “When we’re going to build a new school, we spend $100,000 on a report,” said budget committee member Bill Marvel. “Why not for closing?”

This week’s Tele-Talk: Should a study be done before asking voters their opinion on closing an elementary school?

NATIONAL PERSPECTIVE

Why Cain Isn’t Able INTERVALE, N.H. — Herman Cain is virtually tied with former Gov. Mitt Romney of Massachusetts in Iowa and South Carolina. He's running second here in New Hampshire. Some polls have him ahead of Romney nationally. Everybody's examining 9-9-9, Cain's simplified tax system.

He's the talk of the political world.

And coursing beneath that talk is this question, not verbalized but not answered either: Is Cain the 21st-century version of Wendell Willkie, the man Harold L. Ickes called the barefoot boy from Wall Street, the political naif who won the Republican presidential nomination in 1940 and ran to the left of Franklin Roosevelt on some issues, or is he a latter-day version of H. Ross Perot, who flared, flamed out, flared again and flamed out again two decades ago?

All three of them — Willkie, Perot and Cain — used sales pitches that were simple, reasonable, commonsensical. The first two lost their presidential bids. The third almost certainly will do so as well.

In Willkie's case, the draw of FDR was too strong, the New Deal coalition too durable, the times too fraught to permit a romantic fling with a political novice who had the air of being an alluring first date but probably not a strong candidate for marriage.

In Perot's case, the fact that he was more peculiar than political did him in. Today almost no one admits to having been a Perot supporter in 1992 — but at one point the Texas billionaire was running ahead of Gov. Bill Clinton in the polls.

Cain presents a certain appeal even in an uncertain world. He's a businessman, which matches him with Romney. He is black, which matches him with President Barack Obama. He wants taxes low, which matches him with the tea party insurgents who dominate the Republican conversation even if they have not created wholesale Republican conversion.

He's not primarily a politician, which can be only an advantage in an age when 11 different polls put public disapproval ratings of Congress at more than 80 percent. And he's not Romney, which for two-thirds of Republican primary voters remains a lure all its own.

So with all that, why do the various establishments — the political establishment, the Republican establishment, the press establishment and the consultancy establishment — believe with unwavering conviction that Cain will eventually become the answer to a trivia question, like Wilbur Mills (Who was the last chairman of the House Ways and Means Committee to run for president?) or Endicott Peabody (Which former governor ran for vice president in a New Hampshire primary, even though there was no contest for vice president?) or maybe George Romney (Which onetime governor and presidential candidate was the father of another former governor who ran for president?).

First let's ask whether all those establishments can be wrong, or, more to the point, whether they are so entrenched that they are out of touch. In short, is the very fact of establishment disregard a validation of the Cain candidacy?

Maybe. If Cain does prevail, that certainly will be the case. But he probably won't and it's probably not. The old wisdom of the old order is often

wrong — in fact it almost always is wrong, which is why the Maginot Line didn't work — but the difference here is that the old order still makes the rules and still has power.

This is not the Republican Party of Romney's father, when wizened elders controlled the political process the way old-time hostesses set out the place cards at dinner. But it's not a raucous country potluck either, where anyone can sit anywhere and everyone eats family-style. If it were, Romney, whose principal calling card is experience, would not be the front-runner and Rick Perry, the Cal Ripken of the Texas capitol, wouldn't still be in the race.

Put another way: Mao Zedong said that a revolution was not a dinner party, but for all the talk of Republican revolution, the GOP is still a dinner party. Cain is invited, to be sure, but he is sitting below the salt and pizza is not on the menu.

So what accounts for the Cain surge?

An iron law of presidential politics is that somebody's got to surge, and this fall it's Cain.

(Sen. Gary W. Hart had his surge in 1984, Bruce Babbitt had his in 1988, Paul E. Tsongas had one in 1992. None of these Democrats became president.)

This phenomenon is especially strong in this year's campaign, when the front-runner exudes competence but not compassion, is regarded as smart but smarmy, and may be undeniable as a nominee but unsympathetic as a candidate. The openness he expresses to a flat tax even though he's on record saying it is a threat to the middle class is dangerously close to his skepticism of a health care plan he supported and signed into law.

So somebody's got to surge, and given that this is no presidential field of dreams, there is always a premium on the new. Rep. Michele Bachmann of Minnesota was new once, and she had her moment in the Iowa sun. Perry was new once, and then he opened his mouth -- or, more perilous for Perry, he failed to open his mouth during a parade of debates. Now Cain is new, and he's enjoying an Indian summer of support.

This is going to go on like this for a while, and the beneficiary almost certainly will be Romney, electable if not likable. These surges help Romney's rivals -- the Others, you might call them — but they don't hurt Romney. He is steady at about a third of the GOP vote. That's not a lot, but it may be enough. The surges benefit one or another of the Others, but every one of the surges has come at the expense of the other Others, not the former Massachusetts governor.

That's what's happening with the surge by Cain, already under siege because his tax plan doesn't add up, his comments on abortion are out of sync with the party, and his experience as a lobbyist doesn't square with his profile as an outsider. The first challenge for him is not to win the nomination. First he must avoid becoming another Other.

The only way to win is not to play the game To the editor: I recently advertised some household items for sale on Craig’s List – NH, and enjoyed interaction and a few sales with perfectly decent New Hampshire buyers.

However, I also received and accepted a couple email offers from buyers for whom English was clearly not their first language, going by the names of “Cynthia Scott” and “Robert Kewell.”

Both accepted my asking price without negotiation, and both offered to send me a check for an amount substantially greater than the item’s price, with the idea being that after deducting the price I’d remit them the difference as a refund.

Naturally suspicious but anxious to sell the items, I was cautiously willing to accept these terms, subject to making sure the funds were good and 100 percent collected in my account before sending the buyer back the balance.

A few days later, a check in the amount of $3500 payable to me arrived (for a $550 item), drawn on a real bank in Tennessee that coincidentally had a strict policy of not confirming any information about the check or the account holder. It was from a company called “Eurofins Genescan, Inc.” that according to their website is a substantial European firm with some smaller operations in the United States (but none in Tennessee).

I went to my bank and requested that they accept the check not for regular deposit (which would provide no real assurance that it actually cleared before my bank made the funds available) but “for collection,” which means it is not cred-

ited to my account and available for use until and unless the bank it’s drawn on actually sends the funds to my bank.

However if my bank had not cautioned me against this, and I went ahead with my plan, I would have been the victim of this scam, and lost whatever I sent back to the buyer regardless of whether the money arrived in my account.

The reason is this: apparently these con artists find an account of a large company that has substantial deposits and frequent transactions so it as often as not takes until the end of the month when the company reconciles their checking account for them to notice the discrepancy. They then notify their bank of the fraud, which under such circumstances is permitted to reverse the payment to my bank (even a month later).

Then my bank gets debited for the fraudulent check, and they come looking to me for the money.

The obvious lesson, which I almost learned the hard way, is never accept a check for more than the item’s selling price and/or never from an unknown buyer for expensive, easily resold goods.

This has all the elements of the classic “short con.” Gain the “mark’s” confidence by “trusting” them with a large sum of money, and appeal to the seller’s greed by accepting without question the full asking price. Then once hooked the mark is most vulnerable, thinking they are clever enough to beat the con artist at their own game.

In fact, the only way to win is not to play the game. Forewarned is forearmed.

Take a tour of the ghost world Page 12 — THE CONWAY DAILY SUN, Saturday, October 29, 2011

BY TOM EASTMAN THE CONWAY DAILY SUN

On a snowy autumn night that was not fit for man nor beast, a convoy of nine vehicles set out from North Conway Thursday at 8 p.m, four days before Halloween in search of ghosts in a small cemetery in a nearby town.

Some believe they actually got what they were looking for.

“Look at these pictures on my camera — you can see an orb! It moves around! It’s right over your head in this one when you went to the back of the cemetery,” said Penny Nelson of Fryeburg, one of the 21 participants on the ghostly nocturnal tour presented by the Luna Gallery of North Conway.

Nelson was speaking to yours truly, the assigned and supposedto-be skeptical journalist on the ghost-hunt outing in the small granite-walled cemetery, located just off the road in the woods and containing the graves of a few members of the farming family that once lived nearby.

But after she showed me that photograph of “me and my orb,” I suddenly went from unbiased observer-at-large to a very much involved, goose-bumped, spooked photographer.

Sure, I told myself, it was snowing, and some of those specked images everyone (including me) was picking up on their digital camera screens could be snowflakes. Or dust.

Or, you know, maybe they were spiritual orbs, ghostly apparitions of the paranormal kind — just like what you see on all of those TV ghost hunter shows that in recent years have covered such local supposedlyhaunted locales as the Mount Washington Hotel and the Christmas Farm Inn. ••• We were all part of the team — even though unlike the investigators on those TV ghost-hunting shows, during our cemetery tour, I didn’t hear anyone use the words “Bro” or “Dude,” as in, “Bro! You won’t believe what just happened! My temperature reading just dropped!,” or, “Dude, something just — MOVED!” After getting a bit lost on the snowcovered roads driving to the site, the 21 of us had found our way by flashlight from the roadside to the small cemetery, where respects were paid to the departed.

Luna Gallery owner (and bonafide witch) Kelly Labrie and her local ghost-hunting team asked all to remain aware of the dignity of the setting.

As we all gathered around, she and assistant Lori Davis set up the proper electronic ghost-hunting equipment. On the tombstone, they placed a device known as a K-2 meter, which measures electromagnetic fields.

“EMFs are what spirits give off if they are present,” said Labrie.

They also set up a digital tape

recorder.

Ghost hunters often also use video cameras. (In addition to digital cameras, tape recorders and EMF meters, ghost hunters also use thermo detectors to measure temperature change caused by spirits.)

••• At the darkened cemetery, Labrie and Davis led the interviews (of sorts), trying to make contact with

two souls known as George and Betsy.

Some times after a question was asked, the meter colors would fluctuate from pulsating green to shoots of orange and red.

“Was there an accident?” “Are you confused?” “Do you miss your family?” “Is it hard to be all alone?”

(I asked that last one, and you should have seen the colors on the

machine flip out, meaning a big “Yes!”).

“We’re sorry. We know it takes a lot of energy to do what you’re doing.

Thank you very, very much,” said Davis.

“I think because they’re tired we should let them rest. That’s the respectful thing to do,” said Labrie.

“Thank you for speaking with us see next page

tonight. It means a great deal.

Maybe if it would be all right with you, we could come back again and visit with you,” added Davis.

“When you’re circuiting the oranges and reds (from the greens), that’s when you know you’re getting contact,” said Labrie as the group single-file exited the cemetery, and headed back to our parked cars on the snowy roadway.

She said her group “always tries to get permission” from police or private landowners before leading a cemetery tour as part of making sure that no one gets the wrong idea when they see 10 cars parked outside a graveyard at night, especially around this bewitching Halloween time of year.

Whether everyone in the group believes in the after life, I cannot say — but getting back into our individual cars after leaving the cemetery was downright spooky, a creeping feeling that maybe you were not alone in the car as we left the scene, driving home through the October flakes.

Again, goose bumps. Or, maybe it was just the chill of the season’s first snow.

Dude, I mean, Bro — did you feel that?

••• The night began with a talk at 7 p.m. at the Eastern Slope Inn on ghost hunting provided by the Paranormal Institute of New England.

Slides purported to be of apparition sightings were shown, including some from Civil War battlefields, with blood-stained Gettysburg always being the source of many sightings.

“One premise of ghost hunting is that ghosts are found everywhere. There are two types of hauntings. One is an active haunting, where you can interact and say, ‘If anybody is here can you come over and ring this bell’ and then the bell rings. Then there is the closed loop kind of haunting, where you get the same thing happening over and over. A lot of the photographs you get are of that kind of haunting.” point presentation showed haunted houses with ghostly figures on stairwell landings and back doors.

Ghost tour Oct. 29 The ghostly fun continues locally this Halloween weekend with Luna Gallery’s last of the season “Walk with Spirits” Ghost Tour Saturday.

The North Conway village tours leaves at 7 p.m. and 9 p.m. the tours are not intended for those under age 13, according to

Kelly Labrie, who says she and her fellow paranormal investigators have been leading the lantern-led tours for the past seven autumns.

“We get 15 to 20 people on the tours. We explore. We do a lot of history on the tour of the village,” said Labrie. “We talk about how consumption affected life here in the late 1700s and early 1800s, for example. There were a lot of families who had children who died young. There was a lot of death in those days — it sounds terrible, but having a lot of kids kept the farms going.”

The tours lead to 13 stops, including Eastern Slope Playhouse, near the site of a medical school run in the early 1800s by the learned but eccentric Dr. Alexander Ramsey.

Said to be a brilliant but irascible man, Ramsey was a Scottish physician whose 20-student medical school was located in a house that was later enlarged to be the Sunset Pavilion. He later died while lecturing in Parsonsfield, Maine, according to Janet Hounsell’s book, “Conway, New Hampshire 1765-1997.”

“He was known for his very detailed anatomical drawings.

There was a mysterious room that no one could come in. So, we ponder, what was he doing there, and where did he get these bodies he used to draw from? We do a lot of interesting supposition and theories,” said Labrie.

“A lot of people get strange photos of orbs and strange things over there. Also,” said Labrie, “we have heard of a female ghost in that area who wears rose perfume. On several tours, we have actually smelled the rose perfume, so it’s very see next page

She and her team also tell of local legends, with the “Curse of the Saco” being the oft-most told tale.

That Native American curse claims that at least three people will drown on the river each year.

Patrons on the tour also learn about the ghostly lady who inhabits her Luna Gallery.

“Four customers — all on separate occasions — all have given me the same description, independent of one another,” said Labrie. “They say she is about 25 to 27; she is wearing a long black dress, and she walks from the right of the store and through the wall on the left side.”

Whomever the ghost is, Labrie has not yet been able to determine, but she is doing research on the history of the building, which she says once housed a pharmacy and was used for a paint and paper store.

There is such a debate over them,” said Labrie, who has been intrigued by the paranormal since she was a girl growing up in Limington, Maine, when she saw things that could not be explained away. “We have found a few far and between that are legitimate which do show up to be paranormal. The true ones give off their own light, and the camera picks up on it, as a camera can see much more than we can.”

She and her ghost team have been asked to visit many homes in the region. She would not specify the locations of those homes, however, out of respect for the privacy of the homeowners.

From the Luna Gallery ghost tours, to Sherman Farm’s Haunted Maize and Cranmore Mountain Resort’s Ghoullog, let alone trick or treating and Halloween parties, there are many ways to get spooked this Halloween weekend.

May the spirit move you. To quote Ghostbusters, “Who you gonna call?”

Here are two:

Ghost in the basement

By Janet Daley-Grant

I have a ghost story to share. We moved to Berlin in 2007, bought a house built in 1918, and our first Christmas here we had all my kids and grand kids for dinner. We had put up a train set platform in the basement and the kids would go and play down there.

It was dinner time so we gave a shout to all the kids it was time to eat. After dinner, two of my grand daughters who were 4 and 5 at the time hurried through dinner and asked if they now could go back down stairs and play trains with that man!

Well imagine our reaction!

We all at the same time, said “WHAT man!”

They were calm and looking at us like we were nuts. They said, “That man downstairs that was playing with us.”

My daughter and daughter-in-law and I are both really into the paranormal — they go ghost hunting a lot.

So, we said, “Wait, we will go down with you, we want to meet him.”

We grabbed the camera and headed down.

We had the lights on and then stopped on the steps and asked where he was.

“Grammy,” they said in a “I can’t believe it” sounding voice, “he’s right there!”

We told them to stand still and then shut the lights out and shot a few frames in the dark. We then turned the lights on and finished going down the steps.

After we got down stairs we asked what he looks like and they told us that he “has a mustache, he’s a little taller than grammy, and he’s not fat but not skinny.” With no feelings of anything “evil,” we went back upstairs and talked about how kids can see spirits and I downloaded the pictures.

Eight teams to open inaugural curling season on Saturday

BY LLOYD JONES

ARE YOU DRIVEN TO GET RESULTS THIS FALL? Results Driven 6 month Membership Special Available now thru November 5th Adults $289 Senior, child and student rates available too.

THE CONWAY DAILY SUN

CONWAY — Curlers will take to the ice at Ham Arena this Saturday, opening play in the inaugural season of the MWV Curling League. Eight teams will participate in the fall season with another league scheduled to begin in January.

"It's great," Darrell Umlah, general manager of Ham Ice Area, said Wednesday. "We put out feelers about trying to get the sport started here in the spring and it's really taken off. I couldn't be more pleased with the response. I don't think there's a day that goes by where I don't field a call or an e-mail with interest in it."

League president Pat Kittle said the action will begin Saturday with six teams playing that evening, starting at 8 p.m.

Curling is a sport in which players slide stones across a sheet of ice toward a target area. Two teams, each of four players, take turns sliding heavy (weighing between 38 to 44 pounds), polished granite stones, also called "rocks," across the ice curling sheet toward the house, a circular target marked on the ice.

Each team has eight stones. The goal is to accumulate the highest score for a game, points being scored for the stones resting closest to the center of the house at the conclusion of each end, which is completed when

both teams have thrown all of their stones. A game may consist of eight to 10 ends.

Kittle said MWV Curling Club has received a collection of smaller rocks from a club in New York that weigh 18 pounds apiece and are designed to be thrown by children.

Umlah explained how curling came to be at the Ham Arena. The arena's board of directors had been exploring ideas to increase the use of ice at the rink, and the idea of curling was floated. An initial meeting was held in April to see if there was any interest in the community.

"We had 52 people for a preliminary meeting, which was absolutely outstanding," he said. "I thought there might be an interest for the sport in this community, but this definitely confirmed it beyond my expectations. We had 52 people plus a lot of people of the 52 who have siblings and children who are interested, too. One of the coolest things was all of the people who came I kind of know but they're not regular customers of the Ham Arena."

A board of directors was created within two weeks and the MWV Curling Club was born by May 1.

The board of directors and members raised $10,000 with the help of a matching grant from the Gibson Woodbury Foundation all within three months, and acquired three sets see next page

of curling stones, a full complement of brooms and sliders, and hacks for the curling sheets – in short, everything needed to curl. The club even permanently painted three curling sheets on the ice at the arena.

Over 100 people turned out in September for the initial Curl-A-Palooza in which members of the Nashua and Merrimack curling clubs put on a demonstration of the sport with the inaugural match played on the West Main Street ice sheet.

People in attendance applauded shots and were keen to learn more.

Members of the Mount Washington Valley Curling Club were throughout the rink answering questions about everything from the costs of brushes (starting at around $70 on up to $200 for a carbon fiber brush) to the different types of footwear curlers wear (they actually have a Teflon base on the bottom of their shoes).

From there a few learn-to-curl nights were held and almost 40 people signed up for the initial league. While some formed their own teams, others were simply created by pulling names out of a hat.

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

The fall league will play every Saturday for eight weeks, culminating on Dec. 17.

For updates, call the Ham Ice Arena at 447-5886 or go to the MWV Curling Club on Facebook or on its newly created website (mwvcurlingclub.com).

On the new website, you'll learn some fun facts about curling, such as: • The largest curling club in the USA is the St. Paul, Minnesota club with over 700 members.

• Approximately 1.5 million people in over 33 countries curl.

• A curling tournament is called a Bonspiel.

• Curling is also called “The Roaring Game” due to the noise the stone makes while sliding across the ice.

• Curling stones weigh between 38 to 44 pounds and traditionally are made from two specific types of granite called “Blue Hone” and “Ailsa Craig Common Green," found only on an island off the coast of Scotland.

• A typical game lasts two hours.

• The curling sheet is 146 to 150 feet long by 14.5 to 16.5 feet wide.

• The curling broom (brush) is used to sweep the ice surface in the path of the stone to increase the stones’ speed, by slightly melting the ice.

• A Teflon Slider shoe is worn on only one foot to help glide down the ice when delivering a stone.

Deadline nears for Irene victims Local organizations team up to distribute to sign up for FEMA assistance $6,000 in gift certificates to Irene victims

BY ERIK EISELE THE CONWAY DAILY SUN

CONCORD — Federal officials are reminding people hurt by Tropical Storm Irene they have only nine days left to register for Federal Emergency Management Agency assistance.

The final registration day for homeowners, renters and business owners in Carroll and Grafton counties who had property damaged during between Aug. 26 and Sept. 6 is Monday, Nov. 7. “Registration is the first step in becoming eligible for FEMA’s individual assistance program,� FEMA said in a statement Thursday.

People who do not get an application in before the deadline will have no recourse if they discover damage later, officials have been saying, in an effort to ensure everyone impacted by the storm gets their paperwork in.

Thus far just shy of 500 people from Grafton and Carroll counties have registered for assistance, and FEMA N EW

CONWAY — In a North Conway storefront dubbed “MWV Hurricane Irene Relief Distribution Center,� a line formed at the door before 6 p.m. on a recent Wednesday evening. Residents from Bartlett, Glen, Conway and other Mount Washington Valley communities showed up to receive gift certificates to various stores in the valley. Less than two hours later over $6,000 worth of gift certificates were distributed.

The Whittier Lions Club, with the help of MWV Hurricane Irene Relief volunteers, presented cards purchased from grant monies from Lions Club International. Hannaford’s of North Conway also donated many gift certificates, and several hundreds of dollars of Wal-Mart gift certificates, earmarked for Conway residents, donated to the town of Conway by anonymous donors, were distributed.

Joyce Brothers, president of the Whittier Lions Club, and members, Stanley Brothers, Jeff Brothers, and

William Albrecht of the Whittier Lions Club, reached out to Steffani Adaska of MWV Hurricane Irene Relief to see how they could help work together to distribute grant monies given to the Lions Club for Tropical Storm Irene victims.

The distribution center was located next to SoyFire Candle in North Conway. The space was donated by the owners of the Red Barn Outlet. “We had a great turnout. It was great to see these people, many who have lost everything, leave with smiles on their faces� Adaska said. “I just pray that the generosity of the community does not stop here. There is still so much that needs to be done for these people. So much uncertainty lies ahead for them. Winter is coming.

Propane tanks need to be filled. People may not have homes to go back to.

That’s what scares me.�

Those who wish to help can contact Steffani Adaska at 356-4591 or donate online at www.MWVRelief.blogspot.com.

has given out $971,167.

Individual assistance funds may be available for such things as cleaning and testing a furnace flooded during the disaster, the FEMA statement said, or if serious damage is found, for repair or replacement. Also among the services available are Small Business Administration loans. They are available to individuals as well as businesses. “The SBA’s long-term, low-interest homeowner disaster recovery loan typically provides most of the money required to rebuild seriously damaged properties to pre-disaster condition,� the statement said. It can also be used to replace furnishings and other personal property.

The SBA loans for businesses provide up to $2 million for damage to real property and contents. “Additionally, $2 million may be available to compensate for lost working capital,� the FEMA statement said, “and the economic injury disaster loan is available even to businesses that suffered no physical damage from the storms.�

Also while descending, you was a jumble of rocks, ledge and

roots. According to friend and artist Robert Gordon of Conway, who is constantly climbing local mountains in the valley, the rocky trail up South Moat is harder than many 4000 footers.

Incidentally, Gordon is beginning a series of oil paintings of Moat Mountain. These will include many “plein air” paintings done with his portable easel on the mountain itself, and also large studio paintings. This series will take a few years, as he will be working on other paintings as well. It is worth it to stop by his studio on the Kancamagus Highway in Conway. Call 447-2853.

As usual when alone, on Wednesday morning I reached the top of South Moat a little winded from cruising up the last section of smooth ledges and broken rocks. As usual, there was a cold breeze on top , so I dropped down the east side and hid behind a ledge, looking out over the valley.

To the north, Mount Washington was white, interspersed with rocks. It was in the shade, but Mount Adams was glowing in the sun behind it.

I headed back over the top, and started north on the Moat ridge a couple hundred feet to where I would turn left, down into the trackless woods. I paused there to catch a picture of the peaks west, over Table Mountain to Mount Carrigain — a jumble of peaks.

Then I looked south at a prominent ledge in the middle of the ridge I would soon be heading see HIKING page 25

Happy heat Valley Green Tips

Melody Nestor

Brrr! It’s cold and damp outside.

Time to bundle up. Find the hats and mittens. And light the fire or turn up the heat, well at least some of the time. Heat, fire – it warms us, increasing “the happiness factor” in our lives as our bodies become comfortable, and our minds relax. But “Wait,” the Puritan in us may warn, “heat is expensive.”

No one wants to be like Scrooge to Cratchit but we can’t indulge relentlessly. There are monetary and environmental costs.

Heating and cooling your home uses more energy and drains more energy dollars than any other system in your home. Typically, 43 percent of your utility bill goes for heating and cooling. What’s more, heating and cooling systems in the United States together emit 150 million tons of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere each year, adding to global climate change, according to the “Energy Savers” booklet published by the U.S. Department of Energy. These systems “also generate about 12 percent of the nation’s sulfur dioxide and 4 percent of the nitrogen oxides, ingredients in acid rain.”

But is there a compromise — a way to stay warm, save money and ease the burden on our environment? Yes. It starts with analyses of our home, heating needs and heat sources. Is your home under construction? If so, positioning the windows properly can help passively heat your home, insulating your home and sealing windows, doors and more can prevent drafts and help keep the heat in and

the cold out. Energy audits of existing homes can help you discover ways you can make your home more energyconserving and efficient, saving you dollars in the long run.

Now, how to light your fire? There are many options available locally.

Electric heat is readily available and convenient for space heating, but it is neither as efficient or carbon-friendly as other sources, nor reliable when the power goes. It is also costly for entire home heating.

Oil is considered a reliable, safe source of heat as it will not burn in liquid form, and it’s easy to get delivered and stores conveniently in tanks for on demand use. It is a non-renewable source and not plentiful locally though some leading dealers say that they are able to buy up to 85 percent of their oil domestically.

Liquid propane gas is another tankdelivered, reliable source of heat. It is nontoxic and insoluble in water.

Because it is released as a gas, it doesn't spill, pool, or leave a residue.

Nearly 90 percent of all propane is produced in the United States.

Bio fuels made from a blend of traditional oil and soybean, canola and/or used cooking oils produced in the Midwest are now locally available. Biofuel use lessens our dependence on foreign oil, produces less carbon and supports the US economy by encouraging domestic production. The downside? Biofuel costs a few cents more per gallon than traditional fuels. see next page

Wind power and solar heat for domestic use are 100 percent natural and emit zero carbon but are dependent on the weather and therefore are not as reliable as other sources for heat, though if you produce enough power you may be able to sell it back to your utility. Many folks in our area are finding solar to be a great source for heating water, providing savings long-term with conversion made more affordable by rebates and incentives provided through the government and utilities. Keep your eye on geothermal heat too as an up and coming energy source with rebates and incentives available for conversion.

Wood and pellet fuels are readily accessible, renewable fuels when wood is derived from sustainable sources.

While wood burning generally doesn’t emit more carbon than would be emitted in the natural decomposition of wood, the burning of wood can emit particle pollution that can be harmful, especially to those with asthma.

Newer stoves are more efficient and clean-burning.

Since pellet stove emissions are so low, they can be burned in areas that have conventional wood burning restrictions. Using locally-sourced pellet fuel circulates your fuel dollar in the local economy.

Whatever source of heating you choose, here are some tips for increasing heating efficiency safely and reducing environmental impact: * On your south-facing windows, pull back your curtains or lift your window shades to allow the sunlight to warm your house during the day and close them back at night to keep out the cold air. * Set your thermostat as low as is comfortable, and lower when you are not at home (always high enough to prevent pipes from freezing). Installing a programmable thermostat can help control heating fuel use. * Practice safety: If heating with wood, be sure to get your chimney

swept annually; others should be sure not to block registers and baseboard heaters. Regularly cleaning registers and replacing furnace filters will prevent dust and other airborne irritants and increase efficiency. * Bleed trapped air from hot-water radiators at least once a season. * When buying new furnaces, look for high Annual Fuel Utilization Efficiency (AFUE) ratings. The national minimum is 78 percent AFUE, but ENERGY STAR models are on the market that exceed 90 percent AFUE, according to the US Department of Energy. These models may cost a little more but over time will save you money on fuel costs. * Check your utility’s and UNH Cooperative Extension’s websites along with www.nh.gov/oep to learn what rebates and incentives may be available for upgrading your heating system to become more reliable. * Don’t try to save money by selfinstalling heating systems. Use an expert. Safety should always come first. * Have your heating system professionally inspected and cleaned regularly. * For more information on any of these topics, check out the Energy Savers Booklet online at www.nh.gov/ oep. * If you’re interested in learning more about BioMass as an alternative energy source for larger businesses and schools, consider taking a wood heating biomass tour on Nov. 4.

His postin a New York Times article, doctoral work took him to Maine, “Friend or Foe? Crows Never

Forget a Face, It Seems” and was published as an article, “Lasting recognition of threatening people by wild American crows,” in the journal Animal Behaviour.

Though this is the first formal study of human face recognition in wild birds, its findings confirm the suspicions of many researchers who have observed similar abilities in crows, ravens, gulls and other species. Collaborating with researchers in UW’s Department of Radiology, Marzluff is now peering into the brain of the crow to determine what parts of the brain enable crows to recognize dangers, including those posed by humans. Many a farm boy learned early that crows can determine whether a human is carrying a gun or a stick, then stay clear. I watch ravens get pretty sneaky as they decide whether they are going to raid my hanging bags of suet.

This UW Professor has long been fascinated by the amazing feats of crows and ravens. John has wondered about the ways in which they have adapted and evolved in their ongoing cohabitation with humans. Marzluff is blending biology, conservation, and anthropology to understand if and how human and animal cultures have co-evolved, and in that process has made some surprising discoveries. There are reasons ravens figure so prominently in PNW Indian culture, and adorn those totem poles out there. “Raven leads the people to food” is a common theme in regional mythology. I wrote a good while back that Alaskan Native Americans know that ravens will look up humans and their dogs for assistance getting see next page

down. I needed to keep that ledge in my sights as much as I could, and to stay on the wooded ridge top that curved south, and not head down either side of it.

I walked down into the trees, and began the familiar obstacle course of bushwhacking in a mountainside conifer forest. Yet something was set free inside me at the same time.

Being only at 2,500 feet, the conifers were soon replaced by a mixed forest as I descended, and walking was fairly easy. I stayed on the ridge top as much as possible, and found granite outcrops that offered limited views ahead. I didn’t go long between sightings of the ledge on the ridge ahead, and aligning my path towards it. But it took longer to get to it than I thought it would.

Finally I was in a deciduous grove at its base. In a small niche in the smooth rock face, was a five inch thin board with old rusty wire wrapped around it. The wire broke when I

Recent books co-authored by Marzluff include In the Company of Crows and Ravens (with Tony Angell, 2005 Yale University Press), which suggests that human and crow cultures have co-evolved; and Dog Days, Raven Nights (with Colleen Marzluff, 2011, Yale University Press), chronicling pathbreaking research on ravens in Maine’s north woods, where they also raised, trained and used sled dogs in

Was it a hunter, logger, or camper? I replaced it.

I scrambled up the ledge, and enjoyed the view back towards the summit of South Moat, and again, towards the jumble of peaks to the west. Then I continued down the ridge top, which was one of my favorite New England environments of red pine, hemlock, smooth ledge, red blueberry bushes, and great outward views of slopes covered with yellow beech and oak leaves.

I reached the last prominent lookout ledge, with a view south over the Swift River and Conway. Then I dropped steeply into the valley.

Later, after passing pure stands of beech trees covered with bear claw scars, and following a musical brook, I reached Dugway Road, and walked a short way to the parking lot and my car.

The hike had not only been good exercise, but fun and a little liberating.

Madison Church Donation Cake Auction Nov. 5 MADISON — The annual Madison Donation Cake Auction is Saturday, Nov. 5 in the James Noyes Gymnasium at Madison Elementary School. This event is one of the main fund-raisers for the Madison Church.

One hundred forty six years of tradition that hasn’t changed a great deal. There are still beautiful cakes to bid on, and not so fancy but delectable ones to eat. There is still oyster stew made by a fine group of men, and an addition of corn chowder made by a fine group of women.

Using Wilbur Meaders’ recipe, Roger Clayton and Pastor Sean will make some of that super “oyster stew” A few doors down, Lisa Hayford and her crew will be cooking her mom’s (Margaret Hayford’s) delicious corn chowder.

The evening starts with chowder dinner at 5:30 p.m. Corn Chowder is $4; oyster stew, $5; cut cakes, $4 for eight pieces or $2 for four pieces. Ice cream always follows the meal along with apple juice, cider and or coffee.

If ice cream isn’t for you you can always purchase a plate of cut cakes served by the church’s Philathea Women’s Group.

The second half of the evening is when the good times truly begin. Starting at 6:30 p.m.

Bruce Brooks, the auctioneer of many years, will kick off the cake and craft auction. This year the auction will be featuring crafts prepared by Donna Brooks, Lisa Curran and Melissa LaRoche.

The audience is always provided with a good time and it’s not uncommon to see some rivalries between friends and spouses. People are encouraged to come early and view the cakes, crafts and more. There may even be some surprises (last year there was a live turkey).

The costs this year is $5 for the oyster stew, $4 for the corn chowder, cut cakes plates $4 for eight pieces and $2 for four pieces. Take out is available (you may wish to bring your own container in the event we run out). If you have any questions call Melissa LaRoche (662-5841) or Lisa Curran (367-8121).

DILBERT

by Scott Adams

By Holiday Mathis tempting to stay in the dark about certain matters of finance. Just because you confront reality doesn’t mean you will automatically know the right action to take. But your odds will certainly be increased.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21).

Family and friends will let down their guard around you, as they can trust you to bring harmony to their world. In this way, you contribute to world peace.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19).

You may have to bribe yourself in order to get yourself to complete a certain tedious task. Whatever works. But definitely follow through with whatever treats and rewards you promise yourself along the way.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18).

Appearances are important to you, though you must be careful not to judge a scene -- or a person, for that matter -- merely on looks. There is much going on under the surface, especially these days.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You won’t wake up feeling like you’re “in the zone.” That is a state you must cultivate, and cultivated it you will. You’ll repeat an action until you’ve mastered it.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Oct. 29).

You’ll embark on a challenging journey with no guarantee of success and will love where it takes you. December brings a personal triumph. In January, you’ll learn to use new tools to get what you want. You’ll enjoy your role in a close-knit group in March. February shows you investing and making quick money. Gemini and Cancer people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 5, 25, 49, 10 and 15.

Get Fuzzy

ARIES (March 21-April 19). Discussions about money will serve to point out the complexities of a relationship.

The dollars and cents are not the real issue; the effort that goes into making them is.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Trust your own creative spirit. If you don’t, you cannot inspire others to be creative. Sometimes you feel tapped out of ideas, but more will come later, after you’ve rested and done a little exploring.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Some will lead you to believe that you should protect yourself. Consider that your own good karma may be the best protection you could have right now. When in doubt, just give.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). Maneuvering by your instincts, you’ll have to differentiate between your hunches and your fears. These messages land differently in your body. Listen to your body.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You need your freedom, and this extends to matters of finance. Your commitments to others may create a financial limitation that you didn’t expect. You might rethink your financial plan.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You’ll listen more than talk. After you’ve heard what your colleagues, friends and loved ones have to say, you’ll see the world as it is and not as you wish it would be.

This point of view will empower you.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Reading is favored. Follow your interest, and you’ll fill in some holes of knowledge you were missing. With this little bit of learning, you will understand what you need to do for maximum efficiency.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). It is

by Abigail Van Buren

SON STARTS ON SECOND MARRIAGE BEFORE ENDING HIS FIRST ONE

DEAR ABBY: My son, “Beau,” married “Patsy” four years ago. She left him after two years and moved out of state.

There are no legal separation papers, no child support, and my grandson lives with his daddy.

Beau has a mistress now and tells people they’re “engaged.” “Luci’s” family refers to my son as her fiance and she’s considered Mommy to my grandson. When I corrected those titles at a recent family function, it caused friction.

In my opinion, they can’t be engaged until Beau is first divorced. To me, marriage is important; it matters. I am disturbed by my son’s refusal to end his marriage. I feel it is unfair to Luci, who just had his second child. Beau claims Patsy left him, so she should file for the divorce.

Please understand that Luci and I have become close. She’s thoughtful, intelligent, well-spoken, and a wonderful mother to both my grandchildren. I just feel Beau should finish his first marriage. This is not the type of man I meant to raise, and that this is the person he has become shames me to my soul.

Am I out of step with society? Am I the only one who finds this setup unfair to Luci and insulting to me, the mother who tried to raise him to be a better man than this? I have talked to a counselor, Abby, and it’s killing me. -- DISRESPECTED MOTHER IN TEXAS DEAR MOM: You’re not out of step, and you are correct that the current arrangement is unfair to Luci. If your son should die tomorrow (heaven forbid), Patsy would be a merry widow with all his assets, and Luci would be left with fond memories and a baby to raise by herself. Period.

Not knowing Beau, I can’t know his reasons for not divorcing the woman who left him and ensuring that Luci and the children are taken care of. But I am sure of this: His reasons are NOT solely that he thinks his wife should be the one

to file.

Raising a child well does not guarantee he (or she) will turn out to be a carbon copy of his or her parent. So for your own sake, please stop personalizing this.

DEAR ABBY: I was out to lunch with my son, his new wife, “Taylor,” and her family. My son asked, “Mom, do you want something else to eat?” Naturally, I thought he was speaking to me, so I answered. I was crushed when he said, “No, I was talking to ‘Sally’” (Taylor’s mother)!

I feel it’s wrong for my son to call someone else Mom, and furthermore, Sally should have said something, but she didn’t. Taylor and I are close, but she would never call me Mom, especially in front of her own mother. Am I being silly?

Or should I let this go? -- HIS ONLY MOM DEAR ONLY MOM: Let it go. Your son was probably calling Taylor’s mother “Mom” because he had been asked to do so. (“’Sonny,’ we’re family now. Please call me ‘Mom.’”) It would not, however, be confrontational to tell your son that hearing him do it was hard to swallow.

DEAR ABBY: I walk daily with a friend who constantly complains about her job -- “I have seven meetings, a person to train and emails to write, blah, blah, blah ...” I occasionally have an opening to mention my problems, but it’s rare. I love this friend, but her constant complaining is wearing on me. How can I get her to just enjoy the break and not spend 20 minutes moaning and groaning? -- WEARING THIN IN VIRGINIA DEAR WEARING THIN: Try this. The next time she does it, say: “Let’s not take the office with us. Let’s enjoy our break and use the time to talk about other things.” Say it with a smile, then change the subject.

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

Would you like to invest in residential real estate, but feel unsure how to go about it?

We’ve all heard the comment that the time to buy real estate is when others are fearful of making mistakes.

That time is very likely now. But mistakes are out there, many being made by those focused on “flipping” properties, buying them with plans to fix them up a bit and quickly resell them. In a Sellers’ market, when prices are increasing every year this might make sense. Today it’s a Buyers’ market, and a different strategy is called for.

If you’d like to learn about investing in today’s real estate market, call our investment specialist at Pinkham Real Estate about a free online course that will get you started.

Annual turkey dinner is tonight Albany Town Column

Tonight is the big night-the annual turkey dinner to benefit the high school graduates of Albany. Looking forward to seeing lots of you there. The food is always delicious and the price is right. The cost is $8 for adults (second helping $5), children under six is $6 and take out will be $10.

The Albany Historical Society will have the museum open on Saturday evening so those who would like to see what they have can visit. There have been upgrades to the museum this year. The ceiling has been painted and repaired. If you are interested in genealogies stop by and find out about researching your own (for those who are from the area). They also have several books, maps and note cards for sale. Among the books are “Albany Recollections,” “Passaconaway in the White Mountains,” “Places of Historic and Scenic Interest in Carroll County, NH” and of course the ever popular Albany Cook Book. Check out the old map of Albany and see what it looked like when the land was first divided up. The note cards, done in pen and ink by Mary Leavitt, have five views of places in Albany. All items make good Christmas gifts.

It is time once again to help the Albany Civic Group in its work for the residents of the town by contributing to the Bakeless Bake Sale.

Please make your checks payable to Albany Civic Group and send it to Mary Leavitt, treasurer, 1337 Bald Hill Road, Albany, NH 03818. You can also leave your contribution at the town office.

At the selectmen’s meeting on Wednesday they announced the tax rate for this year.

Once again the rate has dropped. It is $10.76 down 13 cents from last year. Bills will be going out shortly and your checks are due in by Dec. 1.

Tin Mountain: At 8 a.m. meet at the Ferncroft parking lot in Wonalancet and join historian Fred Levigne for a hike up Mount Wonalancet. (A good way to work up an appetite for the turkey supper.) On Thursday, Nov. 3 at 7 p.m. senior biologist Chris Martin from the N.H. Audubon Society will discuss the natural history of the Bald Eagles in New Hampshire and share the story of their comeback.

Gibson Center: Monday is Halloween so come dressed in your costume and enter the parade between the main meal and dessert.

The meeting is at the Best Western Executive Court, 13500 South Willow Street, Manchester.

Gordon and Bernadine Dubois had visitors last week. Gordon’s son, Robert Dubois, from Montgomery, Ala. was here for six days. He had a good time seeing our beautiful area at its peak season.

He took a ride up to Mount Washington but the road was closed due to snow. However, on his way back he did see two moose. Bernadine’s daughter and son-in-law, Diane and Roger Leroux came for the weekend. They had items at the craft show in North Conway. Diane makes ornaments and Roger makes wrought iron items.

Though we’ve gone through the peak “peeper” season, there’s still a lot of beauty out there. Get out and enjoy and we’ll see you on Saturday! Have a great week.

'Saving the Mountains' talk on founding of White Mountain National Forest

MADISON—The Madison Library will host a New Hampshire Humanities Council / One Book One Valley event on Thursday, Nov. 3 at 7 p.m. in the library’s Chick Room. Marcia Schmidt Blaine, Chair of the Department of History and Philosophy at Plymouth State University, will present “Saving the Mountains: New Hampshire and the Creation of the National Forests.”

In 2011, New Hampshire and the nation will celebrate the 100th anniversary of the Weeks Act, the law that created the eastern national forests. New Hampshire’s White Mountains played a leading role in events leading to the act.

Focusing on Concord’s Joseph B. Walker and the Forest Society’s Philip Ayres, Marcia Schmidt Blaine will explore the relationship between our mountains and individuals who worked to protect them.

Organized by a group of librarians and book-minded community members in 2006, One Book, One Valley is a community read program for the Mount Washington Valley area. This

year’s book is “Following Atticus: FortyEight High Peaks, One Little Dog, and an Extraordinary Friendship,” by Tom Ryan. One Book, One Valley organizers plan events relating to the themes in the book, including this “Saving the Mountains” presentation. More information about One Book One Valley, its participating libraries, and other One Book One Valley events can be found at onebookonevalley.wordpress.com.

The New Hampshire Humanities Council has supported One Book One Valley for each of its six annual programs. Learn more about the council and its work at www.nhhc.org. One Book One Valley is also supported by the Pequawket Foundation and the Kendal C. and Anna Ham Charitable Foundation, and local libraries’ Friends of the Library groups.

The Madison Library is located on Route 113 in Madison. For more information or for directions, contact Mary Cronin at the Madison Library, 3678545, or visit the library’s website at madison.lib.nh.us.

Parsons to talk on ‘It’s About the Hike’ TAMWORTH — Ed Parsons, hiking columnist for the Conway Daily Sun will take listeners on a trip through the mountains — kayaking in spring high water, celebrating the beauty of

the trails both alone and with special friends, and seeing it all again from the air, Wednesday, Nov. 9 at 7 p.m. at the Cook Memorial Library in Tamworth.

Elf Headquarters opens Nov. 7

CONWAY — Laura McLane, president of the Kiwanis Club of Mount Washington Valley has announced that Angels & Elves will once again be located in Settlers Corner, next to Staples, thanks to the generosity of Dot Seybold, general manager of Settlers’ Green.

Starting Nov. 7, the office (a.k.a. Elf Headquarters) will be staffed Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays from noon to 6 p.m. It will also be open Saturday, Nov. 26, same hours. This schedule will be expanded on Nov. 28 to everyday, including Saturday and Sunday, from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. to accommodate sponsors and applicants. Elf Headquarters will close Dec. 17.

Dick Ficke and Marie Lee will coordinate this year’s Angels & Elves program as one of the many community services of the Kiwanis Club of Mount Washington Valley. Ficke noted that last year was a record year, and when considering the economy has not improved, coupled with the affects of Hurricane Irene, this year can easily surpass the needs of children last year.

Already there have been Angels coming forth to support this year’s program. This summer, a woman in Middletown, R.I. donated dolls. In early fall, the Harley Owners Group (HOGS) conducted their annual ride to collect toys. Nike and the Gold Toe have donated children’s T-shirts and socks. Numerous merchants are lining up to provide discounts for Angels and Elves shoppers.

Lee added that the economy will also affect sponsors. With more children and fewer sponsors, Angels & Elves will rely heavily on cash donations in order to send out its own shoppers. Already, Bob McGraw, golf pro at Eagle Mountain Golf Course, dedicated greens fees received on Oct. 16, the last day of golf, to Angels & Elves. Along with donations from the Don Ho League, employees and golf club members, the Eagle Mountain. House raised a total of $1,000 for Angels & Elves.

Other fund-raisers for A&E have been announced for November. The Masons of Mount Washington F. & A. M. Lodge will host their “All You Can Eat Breakfast Buffet,” Sunday morning, Nov. 13 to benefit A & E. On Nov. 21, Angels & Elves will be the recipient of a “Dine and Donate” night at Joseph’s Spaghetti Shed.

Parents and guardians will be able to obtain assistance request forms by visiting the Elf Headquarters or by calling 356-8710 once the facility has opened.

Individuals and companies can sponsor one or more deserving children by calling 356-8710 or by stopping in at the Elf Headquarters. Sponsors are preferred, but donations are still greatly appreciated. Donations

can be mailed to Angels & Elves, P.O. Box 3053, North Conway 03860.

Kiwanis is a non-profit organization. The mission of the Kiwanis Club of Mount Washington Valley is to make the community a better place in which to live by engaging adult and youth volunteers to support community service projects with an emphasis on the needs of children.

Blood Drive Nov. 10 in North Conway CONWAY — As we enter the gift giving season, the American Red Cross is offering residents of North Conway and the surrounding area the opportunity to give the greatest gift of life. The Red Cross bloodmobile will be at Our Lady of the Mountains on Thursday, Nov. 10. Donor hours are from 1 to 6 p.m. and all blood types are needed at this time.

For patients needing a transfusion, there is no other source for this resource than a caring volunteer donor. Every 12 seconds in the United States, someone needs a blood transfusion. As the holidays approach, blood supplies tend to decline, often to extremely low levels.

It only takes about an hour to give blood. The actual donation takes between six and 10 minutes.

Donors complete a brief medical history and check up before giving blood and enjoy refreshments afterward. “The holiday period is a busy time for all of us,”: said Scott Chisholm, Account Executive,” taking 90 minutes to give blood could save someone’s life, what other gift could be more important?” For more information or to schedule an appointment, please call 1-800-RED CROSS (1-800-733-2767) or visit our website at www.redcrossblood.org to find an American Red Cross Blood Drive in your area.

Storytellers cast their spells at The Met Monday night

CONWAY The Mountain Storytellers Guild presents “Tales for All Hallows Eve” at The Met Coffee House and Fine Art Gallery in North Conway Village Monday, Oct. 31, at 7 p.m.

Guest storytellers Angela Klingler, Lauretta Phillips, and Uncle George Radcliffe will join local tellers Andy Davis and Arthur Surette for a set of tales appropriate for this most creepy of nights.

Annually voted by fellow “trick or treaters” as having the best “witch’s cackle,” nationally recognized storyteller Angela Klingler’s love of telling “scary stories” and haunting legends began during her years at summer camp and she has been honing that childhood skill professionally since 1989. She lives in Salem.

Uncle George Radcliffe, of Webster, strings a yarn that is magical, captivating and entertain-

ing. A professional storyteller since 1994, he shares a unique collection of folktales that he has made his own and calls this smorgasbord of stories “Slumgullion Tales”.

The alarmingly funny, eerily charming Lauretta Phillips, of Andover, NH, has been telling professionally since 1987. She is founding director of the NH Storytelling Alliance.

“We’re a bit nervous about bringing these frightening guest tellers to North Conway, “ said Davis, the evening’s organizer. “So please do come to The Met — there’s safety in numbers!”

This storytelling performance is recommended for ages 8 to 108. The hat will be passed for the N.H. Storytelling Alliance. For more information, please call the Met at 356-2332 or Andy Davis at 447-2113.

HOME OF THE WEEK

Homeownership matters

BY JASON ROBIE We have been reading and hearing for years that homeownership one of the best ways to build long-term wealth, but it also fosters an immeasurable sense of community and stability vital to growing families. The National Association of Realtors did a study on the social benefits of homeownership and stable housing in 2010.

All of the statistics in the following article were taken from that study that you can find on the association's website.

In general the study concluded that homeowners are happier and healthier. They tend to vote more, volunteer more and contribute more to their neighborhoods. Homeowners do not move as frequently as renters, which encourages more neighborhood stability, and children of homeowners are more likely to participate in organized activities and spend less time in front of the television. Let’s take a look at some of the details!

At the beginning of the 20th century (you didn’t think you were going to learn history, did you?), less than half of Americans owned their own homes. As interest rates dropped and the economy expanded, that number climbed to nearly 67 percent in 2010. Homeowners tend to move less frequently as well. Between 2008 and 2009, a mere 5 percent of owner-occupied residents changed locations while almost 30 percent of renters moved. Renters tend to be younger, still searching for ideal jobs, not married and less committed to a location. In that same time period, the relocation rate among 20-24 year-olds was 27 percent, but less than 5 percent for those over 65. The bar graph for that stat looks exactly opposite to the chart for age and homeownership rates. The homeownership rate is less than 40 percent for those under 35 and over 80 percent for those over 65.

There have been numerous studies about homeownership and students’ academic achievement. While there many other factors involved in a child’s educational experience, consistent findings show that homeownership makes a significant positive impact. There were two pages (out of 14) of the study dedicated to this area of research. The conclusions made were related to the overall experience of a child during their educational years. There are dozens of factors that impact a child’s educational achievement and many of those factors are directly affected by homeownership. So while a direct causal relationship may not be made, the impact homeownership has on the many factors that determine the child’s achievement is still statistically significant. (That psychology degree is finally paying off!) Nearly all of the studies pointed to better academics, fewer teen pregnancies and less behavioral problems in students growing up in owner occupied homes.

Since homeowners have a vested interest in the value of their home, they tend to take much better care of the property than renters. This translates into not only better-kept homes and well-maintained properties, but also into a higher quality community and neighborhood. I’m not suggesting that renters treat their see ROBIE page 46

Grand home, grand value Today’s Home of the Week is a colonial-style home situated on seven acres on Towle Hill Road in Eaton.

EATON — This grand colonial-style home in Eaton “is an excellent example of some of the outstanding values available in larger homes,” according to the listing agency.

The four-bedroom home is set on seven private wooded acres. It includes a living room, formal dining, cozy family room with a brick hearth and woodstove, and a spa room with a large hot tub.

An extra large attached garage provides ample room for three cars plus mowers, snow blowers, toys, etc., and includes a spacious game room above with a pool table, conversation area, soapstone woodstove and its own deck. There is also an adjacent study.

The home features a king-size master bedroom with bath and ample closet space.

There are hardwood floors in most areas.

At nearly 3,500 square feet, the home has 11 rooms, an elegant and roomy master bedroom, three full baths, abundant closets, generously proportioned additional bedrooms and breakfast nook — plenty of room for a large or growing family as a principal residence or vacation home.

Being located in the picturesque town of Eaton has its benefits, too. All Eaton residents enjoy privileges at the pristine Crystal Lake and town beach in the village. Eaton Village is also one of the most scenic towns in the area with its Main Street winding through a lake and mountain landscape, straight out of a Currier and Ives classic. And it’s convenient to snow and water sports, shopping and restaurants.

Charlie Erff of Coldwell Banker Wright Realty in Conway is the listing agent for the home, which is priced at $349,900. He can be reached at (603) 447-2117 Ext. 305 or charlie@nhhomz.com.

ROBIE from page 45

homes like rental cars (you know who you are), but the incentive to maintain and upgrade one’s rental is simply not there. To be perfectly clear, we are talking about the tenant’s incentive, not the rental property owner’s. As I ponder that, I’m sure it could be another whole article.

Can owning a home make you healthier? Perhaps it can. Homeowners report being happier and healthier than non-owners and there is some research to back it up. When controlling for factors such as income and education, the researchers found that renters who became homeowners reported higher life satisfaction, higher self-esteem and higher perceived control over their lives. I found it interesting that homeowners experienced a significant increase in housing satisfaction even in the same home in which they resided as renters. It makes sense though. The feeling of stability and being more grounded that comes with owning a home is hard to replicate. And I can attest to the confidence boost produced by installing one’s own kitchen cabinets or even adding an outlet. Yes, I am Tim the Tool Man! The social bonds, family and neighborhood association provided by homeownership also has a significant effect on crime rates both as perpetrator and victim. Homeowners clearly have more to lose if the crime rate climbs in their neighborhood and therefore take more steps to mitigate those factors than do renters. The studies show the same can be said about neighborhoods with strong social ties regardless of ownership conditions. The truth is, if

Homeownership boosts the educational performance of children, induces higher civic and volunteer participation, improves health and lowers crime rates. If homeownership were running for office, it would get my vote! you know your neighbors and create bonds among them, the likelihood of crime in that area will not be very high.

Overall the study found that homeownership allows households to accumulate wealth and social status, and is the basis for a number of positive social, economic, family and civic outcomes. Homeownership boosts the educational performance of children, induces higher civic and volunteer participation, improves health and lowers crime rates. If homeownership were running for office, it would get my vote! With homeownership, comes the pride of accomplishment and ownership and the feeling of being connected to a community. It could be concluded that homeowners are “happier” simply from having accomplished the “American Dream."

We tend to preach homeownership as a great investment and a potential savings for seasonal visitors. It turns out, homeownership is far more important than that. It really does matter!

In Carroll County residential sales increased 28 percent, when comparing September 2010 to September 2011. Looking at the Carroll Country 2011 yearto-date sales, residential sales are up 6.5 percent and condos are up 2.1 percent.

“Our valley continues to lead the state as home sales warm up," said Paul Mayer, president of the White Mountain Board of Realtors and owner of Black Bear Realty. "Carroll County has seen 33 more homes sold this year than last year. September was an especially good month, with 18 more homes sold than September 2010.”

The median price of those homes, meanwhile, decreased by 10 percent statewide, but only 5.6 percent in the Mount Washington Valley.

“We’re not willing to use the word ‘recovery’ just yet, but to say we feel as though we’re in a period of stabilization is very fair,” said New Hampshire Association of Realtors' president Tom Riley, a 35-year veteran of the real estate industry and president of Riley Enterprises in Bedford. “Even so, we’re glad to see activity and sales trending in a positive direction, both for the sake of the housing market and the economy in general,” Do you want a VIEW?

Remodeling activity remains slow under current economic conditions

The current state of the national economy continues to affect the remodeling industry, according to the latest National Association of Home Builders' Remodeling Market Index.

The index dropped to 41.7 in the third quarter from 43.9 in the second quarter, after having reached a four-year high of 46.5 in the first quarter. An Remodeling Market Index (RMI) below 50 indicates that more remodelers report that market activity is declining than report that it is increasing.

The overall RMI combines ratings of current remodeling activity with indicators of future activity, like calls for bids. In the third quarter, the RMI component measuring current market conditions fell to 43.0 from 44.8 in the previous quarter.

The RMI component measuring future indicators of remodeling business declined as well, to 40.4 from 43.0 in the last quarter.

"Remodelers report that while many consumers show interest in having remodeling work done, they are slow to commit to projects,” said National Association of Home Builders' remod-

elers chairman Bob Peterson, CGR, CAPS, CGP, a remodeler from Ft. Collins, Colo. “Consumers are in a ‘wait and see’ mode with regard to current economic conditions.”

All three components measuring current market conditions decreased in the third quarter: major additions to 45.2 (from 46.2 in the second quarter), minor additions to 45.7 (from 48.5) and maintenance and repair to 37.1 (from 38.4).

Future market indicators decreased as well: calls for bids to 45.4 (from 49.8), amount of work committed for the next three months to 29.9 (from 32.3), backlog of remodeling jobs to 43.0 (from 45.7) and appointments for appraisals to 43.3 (from 44.2).

“The current economic instability continues to affect consumer confidence, therefore we have seen a drop off in remodeling activity for the last two quarters,” said David Crowe, chief economist for National Association of Home Builders. “In order for the remodeling market to pick up, home owners need to have access to less restrictive lending requirements and see their economic future stabilizing.”

Congress, Obama administration must act to stimulate housing recovery, Realtors say

WASHINGTON — America needs strong housing policies that ensure a robust recovery and do not further weaken the nation’s housing market. That was one of several recommendations resulting from the bipartisan New Solutions for America’s Housing Crisis forum on Oct. 4 and endorsed by the National Association of Realtors.

The forum was hosted by the Progressive Policy Institute and Economic Policies for the 21st Century and brought together policy leaders, industry representatives, members of Congress, thought leaders and the media. In a letter sent this week to Congress and President Obama, National Association of Realtors outlined and urged support for the recommendations in a new five-point housing solutions plan to help re-energize housing markets and spur the economic recovery.

“As the nation’s leading advocate for homeownership and housing issues, NAR knows that the key to the nation’s economic strength is a robust housing industry,” said association president Ron Phipps, broker-president of Phipps Realty in Warwick, R.I. “The nation is in need of immediate policy solutions to address the myriad challenges. Swift action from Congress and the administration is needed to stimulate housing and economic recovery.”

The five-point plan urges legislators and regulators to oppose proposals that could put the nation’s housing market recovery at risk. This includes revising the unnecessarily high down payment requirements of the proposed Qualified Residential Mortgage exemption; restoring higher mortgage loan limits supported by the Federal Housing Administration and the government-sponsored enterprises (GSEs);

STEEL ROOFS

and preserving home ownership tax benefits, including the mortgage interest deduction.

“Consumers continue to find it increasingly difficult to find affordable mortgage options. Proposing higher down payments and lowering conventional loan limits only strips home buyers of their savings and reduces the number of borrowers who are able to purchase a home,” said Phipps. “Now is also not the time to change the tax benefits that apply to homeownership, which would further undermine consumer confidence and depress home values.”

The plan recommends that lenders and the government take more aggressive steps to modify loans and approve short sales to help reduce high foreclosure inventory levels and restore vitality to communities and neighborhoods. Realtors are hopeful that reduced fees and improvements to refinancing programs will help more struggling homeowners reduce their monthly mortgage payments and avoid losing their home to foreclosure.

The plan also calls for changes to rehabilitation and investor financing programs, which will help private capital return to the mortgage markets and foster new demand among responsible home buyers.

This would also help reduce the high inventory of foreclosed homes and stabilize home prices.

In addition, the plan recommends that the federal government continue to play a role in the secondary mortgage market to support the use of long-term, fixed-rate mortgage products and ensure a continual flow of mortgage capital in all markets under all economic conditions. Phipps said that recent see next page

proposals calling for the full privatization of GSEs Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac should be rejected, because private firms will focus on generating revenue rather than on the best interests of consumers or the nation’s housing market, making homeownership unaffordable for many Americans.

Finally, the plan urges the White House to move housing to the front of the nation’s domestic agenda. Phipps said that a broad discussion among stakeholders could provide valuable recommendations and solutions to put housing and the economy on a path to recovery.

“A housing recovery is key to the country’s future economic strength. That is why Realtors are proud to endorse these recommendations, which we believe will help housing return to a balanced, healthy state,” said Phipps.

The National Association of Realtors is America’s largest trade association, representing 1.1 million members involved in all aspects of the residential and commercial real estate industries.

Hollywood's favorite flipper turns around the business model that made him famous

BY LISA IANNUCCI CTW FEATURES

The fifth season of Bravo's docu-series Flipping Out just ended and, interestingly, this season focused on frenetic house flipper Jeff Lewis converting his floundering flipping business into a successful interior design company. But why change what has made him a successful reality star? After all, he was discovered when Bravo was reviewing his assistant's audition tape, and within 48 hours Lewis had a show of his own.

But while he's known for his brashness and over-the-top personality while hiring and firing friends along the way, his flipping business was no match for the country's suffering economy. It was four years ago when market turned for Lewis and he faced the worst financial year of his life.

"In 2008, everything turned and turned fast, and I was stuck holding several multi-million dollar homes. Fortunately, I was able to sell them and pay off my debts, but

I did lose a lot of money," he says.

Having a national reality show once helped Lewis to promote his flipping business, so he realized that he also could use it to launch a new business. "There's this notion out there that you don't make money doing reality shows, and that's not true," he says. "As a businessman, I never would have done this if I wasn't paid well. So for me, I looked at it as a nice income supplement for running my business and having them just watch."

Even with a national platform and a new game plan, Lewis still faced an uncertain future. "People were holding onto their money, because they didn't know what was going to happen with the economy and they were reluctant to spend," he says. "Everybody was

scared, even truly wealthy people."

Lewis noticed that remodeling jobs were being done more out of necessity than pure want. For example, a homeowner needed to convert a garage to a home office because the home office needed to be a nursery. Another homeowner remodeled because of a fire. In 2009, Lewis says that pockets loosened up a bit and his customers felt that most of the damage was done."

"All of a sudden I was trying to reinvent myself with a brand-new design business in a bad economy, and the show was a multimillion dollar marketing campaign for my business," he explains.

"When the season started, within two hours I had 18 legitimate business inquiries, so the design business has definitely loosened up."

Nubi Duncan and Lisa Brouillette congratulate Scott Rahuba on his recent transaction.

Pending home sales decline nationally in September, but still higher than a year ago WASHINGTON — Pending home sales declined in September, although activity remains above a year ago, according to the National Association of Realtors.

The Pending Home Sales Index, a forward-looking indicator based on contract signings, fell 4.6 percent to 84.5 in September from 88.6 in August but is 6.4 percent higher than September 2010 when it stood at 79.4. The data reflects contracts but not closings.

Lawrence Yun, chief economist for National Association of Realtors, said the housing market is being excessively constrained. “A combination of weak consumer confidence and continuing tight lending criteria held back home buyers, even though the private sector added nearly 2 million net new jobs in the past 12 months,” he said.

The Pending Home Sales Index in the Northeast declined 4.7 percent to 60.6 in September but is 4.0 percent above a year ago. In the Midwest the index dropped 6.2 percent to 71.5 in September but remains 12.3 percent higher than September 2010. Pending home sales in the South fell 5.5 percent in September to an index of 91.6 but are 5.0 percent above a year ago. In the West the index declined 2.1 percent to 105.8 in September but is 5.6 percent higher than September 2010.

“A combination of weak consumer confidence and continuing tight lending criteria held back home buyers, even though the private sector added nearly 2 million net new jobs in the past 12 months.”

“America’s monetary policy is contradictory and confusing, where some consumers with the best financial capacity and top-notch credit scores pay higher mortgage interest rates,” Yun said. “The Federal Reserve evidently has been attempting to lower mortgage rates, yet more consumers are faced with taking out jumbo loans that carry higher interest rates.”

Yun emphasized the need to reinstate higher loan limits in 42 states.

“Just leaving excessive cash to sit in banks and not work into the economy is a drag on the overall recovery,” he said. “We need a comprehensive approach to address housing issues – not additional impediments.”

The National Association of Realtors is America’s largest trade association, representing 1.1 million members involved in all aspects of the residential and commercial real estate industries.
