No police grant, no special meeting

BY ERIK EISELE THE CONWAY DAILY SUN

CONWAY — Plans for a second special town meeting have been called off after the police department learned it wasn't selected for a $241,000 federal grant the department was hoping for.

Application for $241,000 federal grant for new officer is denied

“It’s a little disappointing, but it is what it is,” police chief Ed Wagner said.

The grant, awarded by the U.S. Department of Justice, would have paid the salary and benefits for an additional police offi-

cer for three years, so long as the town agreed to pay the bill for the fourth year.

The department has been looking to add see GRANT page 8

OSSIPEE — Apparently, most local lawmakers don’t even want to consider bringing the New Hampshire Department of Health and Human Services into a portion of the old nursing home building.

The decision was made during a long and confusing discussion.

Carroll County just built a new nursing home for about $21.5 million. Now, lawmakers and the county commission are looking at what to do with the old facility.

The core of the facility will hold such things as see WINGS page 8

Bull run: Danger, yes.

Liability, no.

–––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– DIGEST––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––

CAVE CREEK, Ariz. (NY Times) — As Hemingway pointed out, sprinting ahead of a herd of snarling bulls certainly makes the heart beat faster. But so does what one must do before an American-style running of the bulls begins: sign an extremely comprehensive liability waiver.

Phil Immordino, who organized three bull runs in Nevada and Arizona a decade ago modeled on Spain’s famous running of the bulls in Pamplona, took a hiatus after insurance costs rose so high that he could not turn a profit.

But he is back at it this month in Cave Creek, a Westernstyle town north of Phoenix.

Mr. Immordino expects hundreds of runners to sprint along a quarter-mile track while being pursued by dozens of 1,500-pound rodeo bulls with names like Blood Money and Dooms Day. Also expected are animal rights activists, who take a dim view of an event they find cruel on its face.

Before anyone runs, though, he or she is required to sign, and then sign some more.

“We have a seven-page waiver, and they need to initial every paragraph and every page,” said Mr. Immordino, a Phoenix native who also organizes golf tournaments.

“It says you, your neighbor, your cousin and your cousin’s brother can’t sue anybody about any of this.”

Obama aide pressed into political combat WASHINGTON (NY Times) — When President Obama recruited William M. Daley, a business-friendly banker with a Democratic pedigree to be his chief of staff 10 months ago, Mr. Daley seemed like the right man for a White House determined to cut deals with resurgent Republicans in Congress.

Now Mr. Daley finds himself commanding a White House staff that has put its president on war footing with the opposi-

tion. It is an awkward turn of events for a man who seems more comfortable negotiating with Republicans than excoriating them, as Mr. Obama has over the last couple of weeks, as cold-hearted defenders of the rich.

“The nation is being pushed into that, by the Republican primaries, by the type of ‘my-way-or-the-highway’ language in Congress,” Mr. Daley said in an interview,

sounding less like an eager warrior than a frustrated negotiator pressed into combat.

Burned by Washington after failed budget talks with House leaders, he and another influential White House adviser, David Plouffe, are hoping to chart a presidential comeback that relies less on legislative accomplishments than on selling a vision of America that contrasts sharply with that of the Republicans.

LASHKAR GAH, Afghanistan (NY Times) — Punctually, at 8 p.m., the cellphone signals disappear in this provincial capital. Under pressure from the Taliban, the major carriers turn off their signal towers, effectively severing most of the connections to the rest of the world. This now occurs in some portion of more than half the provinces in Afghanistan, and exemplifies the Taliban’s new and more subtle ways of asserting themselves, even as NATO generals portray the insurgents as a diminished force less able to hold ground. The question is whether the Taliban need to hold territory as they once did in order to influence the population. Increasingly, it seems, the answer is no.

Tactics like the cellphone offensive have allowed the Taliban to project their presence in far more insidious and sophisticated ways, using the instruments of modernity that they once shunned. The shutoff sends a daily reminder to hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of Afghans that the Taliban still hold substantial sway over their future.

WASHINGTON (NY Times) — Senate Democratic leaders on Wednesday proposed a 5 percent surtax on people with incomes of more than $1 million a year to pay for the package of job-creation measures sought by President Obama and to quell a brewing revolt among Democrats against the White House plan.

The Senate majority leader, Harry Reid, Democrat of Nevada, said the surtax would raise $445 billion over 10 years, just about the amount needed to pay for the jobs bill. Reid said his proposal would “have the richest of the rich pay a

little bit more” — “5 percent more to fund job creation and ensure this country’s economic success.”

Reid’s proposal was meant to draw a sharp contrast with Republicans and to win over Democrats who were resisting the president’s proposal due to the tax increases he had suggested. The approach is unlikely to win any backing from Republican leaders who strenuously oppose increases in tax rates, but the plan, which Senate Democrats had aired last year to a cool response from the White House, is seen by party strategists as having appeal with the public.

Groundbreaking Thursday for biomass plant in Berlin

BY BARBARA TETREAULT THE BERLIN DAILY SUN

BERLIN — Gov. John Lynch and Department of Resources and Economic Development commissioner George Bald are scheduled to attend groundbreaking ceremonies for the Burgess BioPower biomass plant Thursday.

Cate Street Capital announced the ceremony will take place at 11 a.m. at the plant site. In addition to Lynch and Bald, speakers will include Berlin Mayor Paul Grenier, Public Service of New Hampshire chief executive officer Gary Long, and Cate Street Capital president John Halle.

Cate Street Capital has indicated the biomass project will be named Burgess BioPower — presumably after the former Burgess pulp mill that occupied the site.

In a press release issued last month, Cate Street Capital said it had managed to secure

an investment grade rating for the $275 million financing package for the project in what it described as a very challenging capital market.

The company said Prudential Capital Group was instrumental in securing the investment grade rating. Through its Electric Finance Group, Prudential Capital Group was the lead lender providing senior secured debt to the project.

“Completing project finance, especially of this size, that incorporates New Markets Tax Credits, Section 1603 Grant in Lieu of Investment Tax Credits, and senior debt is not an easy undertaking,” added Halle, “and Prudential assisted and guided everyone involved in successfully navigating its complexity.”

Starwood Energy Group and Cate Street Capital provided equity financing and Starwood also provided certain debtfinancing to the project.

awarded a $186 million contract to convert the former chemical recovery boiler into a bubbling fluidized bed boiler.

A subsidiary of B&W, Delta Power Services was awarded a six-year contract worth more than $19 million to provide operations and maintenance services for the plant.

Construction of the 75-megawatt biomass plant is expected to take about two years. When complete, it will be the largest biomass plant in New England.

While the Portsmouth-based Cate Street Capital is breaking ground in Berlin for the biomass plant project, it is moving aggressively to start up two paper mills in Maine.

Cate Street last month purchased the East Millinocket and Millinocket mills. The Bangor Daily News reports the company has a full year of orders for the East Millinocket mill with an Oct. 30 deadline to get the first order shipped.

Obama calls himself the underdog as polls portray him as one-term president

BY LLOYD JONES THE CONWAY DAILY SUN

Will President Obama be a one-term president?

According to a new ABC News/Washington Post poll released Monday, just 37 percent of Americans believe President Obama will win reelection; 55 percent believe he will lose to the Republican nominee. It's the first poll to indicate the president's hold on the White House may be substantially slipping.

In fact, President Obama is calling himself the underdog in the 2012 election.

Obama Tuesday said the faltering economy is seriously impairing his chances of winning again in 2012.

"Absolutely," he said in response to a question from ABC News' George Stephanopoulos about whether the odds were against him come November 2012, given the economy. "I'm used to being the underdog. But at the end of the day people are going to ask — who's got a vision?"

In the ABC News/Washington post poll, conducted Sept.

29 to Oct. 2, 55 percent of Americans expect a Republican victory next year. Fewer, 37 percent, predict that Obama will win reelection. A majority of independents sense that the GOP nominee will prevail, but there is a gaping difference between party loyalists. see POLLS page 13

So why is this area marking up gas prices?

To the editor: I’m writing in concerns with the prices of gas and gouging we are experiencing in this area.

When I first started coming here I was told prices were usually higher due to tourism. That may be, but the more I’m here the less I see tourists at the pumps.

All I’ve see at the pumps 90 percent of the time are New Hampshire and Maine plates.

At the moment, Oct. 4, two gas stations in Fryeburg are at $3.65 and one over the border is $3.68 and 9/10 per gallon. I just got back from a day trip just west of Concord and the prices along the way reflect what I am talking about. At the Tamworth Country Store on Route 25 the price is $3.29 and in Meredith and New Hampton the prices are $3.30 and $3.28 at all the stations along that route. In Concord it is anywhere from $3:25 to $3.30 and 9/10 per gallon.

So why is this area marking up the prices 35 to 36 cents? If it is for tourism then we are all tourists. Only less than 10 percent of the tourists are buying the gas at that price but 100 percent of all locals are the ones paying gas at the ridiculous price.

So the gas companies are making more than their share of profit while the locals pay the price. With the way the economy is going, maybe the tourists would

stop and buy gas if the prices were lower. Knowing that just down the road 30 minutes away there is cheaper gas and along their route home. I know from my standpoint I’m not going to drive to Tamworth to save 36 cents on a gallon of gas if I already have a half of a tank. If I was driving a bigger vehicle with a 30 gallon or more gas tank I would never gas up here, losing 36 cents a gallon.

So what can we do as a society with bad economy and “our own neighbor” taking our hard earned money? When you ask a manager or a clerk behind the counter the response is “We only make 2 cents on every gallon we sell.” But the prices change whether or not the truck made a delivery or not. The prices are called in on certain days from headquarters whether to raise or lower the price depending on how the market is effected.

I think it is funny though to have the same truck deliver the same gas to Tamworth and then to the Conway area with the “same gas” at different prices.

Maybe as a group if we stand up to this with enough effort we can knock down the prices to a reasonable rate where we all can save in the long run. The money saved at the pump might easily be spent on a muffin or a coffee in the store after all.

Let’s look at our policies and see who they serve To the editor: Natural disasters are not the only contributors to the strain on local nonprofits and townships attempting to tend to the needs of residents of many communities in the Mount Washington Valley. Many people must work two or three jobs to provide for their families.

Winter brings untold challenges to all, especially the unemployed and poor.

The hospitality ‘industry’ struggles for survival, while hoping to be able to keep locals employed, in appreciation for the many folks who have made each business what it is today. An announcement just this week that N.H. State assistance for fuel needs will likely be cut in half is very unnerving for us in helping positions, absolutely frightening for others!

I have been in a position of witnessing over the years, how generous people are, in coming to the need of our neighbors to all corners of our region. Our programs to help with church-based charitable giving, are totally dependent on the gifts we receive for such purposes.

It’s frightening to face winter knowing that someone’s oil tank must be filled two or three times every winter season.

Two years ago, someone gave me a large sum of money to help people who had no fuel. That large gift, at current prices back then, enabled us to help 27 families ... a single time, with NO promise that we could ever do that again.

Granted, it’s a “dent,” and a small one, but absolutely dependent on someone’s generosity. There are far more people with tighter budgets than those with bulging wallets in this region. Many come here looking for the “greener grass” ... it is not here. Those aren’t the folks we’re talking about. We’re talking about our relatives, friends and neighbors.

Part of our problem-solving as bearers of charity and stewardship of budgets of both non-profits and towns, must include a re-evaluation of how user-friendly the process is for applying for assistance. It’s reckless to say that the process is the same as 90 percent of New Hampshire communities and

pass that off as the standard that is just and fair. It is also more than “How do we stretch a dollar?” Robert King is correct in asserting that we have a major responsibility towards those who offer a portion of their earnings and savings to help others. Everybody acknowledges that every township and non-profit is pressed to the wall. But, we must do our best to do what we can, with what we have to work with.

Legitimate, verified residents deserve a process that is not so complex, and that is always respectful of their dignity. All the time we hear charities saying that they will “accept gifts large or small.”

That’s the way it has to be! In turn, we as agents to the poor among us, need to live by the same standard ... we help as best we can ... a percentage is better than closing the door! We should never be placing our fellow citizens who need help, through a bureaucratic wringer or pass them off to some other “agency” of charitable assistance without first bending over backwards. Sometimes we can’t help very much ... but we can’t be sending people off into the dark or cold without trying to help. There are many ways to evaluate the legitimacy of a request without degrading the person seeking assistance, sometimes life-saving assistance.

I commend people in the Valley who are trying to talk about this sensitive issue. There are many generous folks involved ... your time, your headscratching, your frustration ... don’t despair, don’t give up! People appreciate your efforts. We are not talking about “micromanaging” others, like they are part of a machine. The mechanics of people in helping positions should be more driven by compassion than by codes and regulations.

We represent many people who have big hearts. Let’s give them a break, look at our policies and see who they serve! It might just be possible to not be like the 90 percent, and be doing our very best ... together.

Even in bad economy, we continue to support shelters To the editor: I am a volunteer at the Conway animal shelter (Animal Rescue League – North). I photograph all of the cats and write their bios for the newspaper and website. As I research how an animal came to be at the shelter, it is very sad as to see a large number of loving animal parents who have had to relinquish their pets. They have lost their jobs and have had to move and their new landlord does not allow pets or they simply can not afford to properly care for a pet.

I am writing today for a different reason: to say thank you. To the shelter workers who put in countless hours without much pay; the dedicated volunteers; local business owners who support the shelter with donations, advertising and housing adoptable cats; all the kennel sponsors; animal foster parents; those who donate cash, food, towels etc.; and most importantly the community of adopters who have stepped up and taken in these poor homeless creatures.

On average, 29 cats are adopted from the shelter each month. In the

month of September, despite the down market, which reduced most of our retirement funds significantly, 75 cats were adopted! This breaks all prior records. Conway Area Humane Society’s largest previous adoption month was 51 cats (which happened to be in August of this year). Having gotten to know all of these cats personally, I was so grateful, and so excited, that no words I can express can even come close to properly thanking all those involved. This is such a great community! Even in a bad economy, we continue to support our shelters and countless other great charitable organizations.

Did you know that 80 percent of animal lovers have never set foot in an animal shelter? That cannot be true here in the Mount Washington Valley!

If you haven’t already, come and meet some of the people and animals whose lives you have impacted. See the cute faces for yourself, and shake the hands of shelter workers who will never forget your generosity!

to its roster for more than a year, and this grant would have kept the town’s costs down in the near term.

Department officials waited most of the last month to find out if Conway was among the communities to have their requests granted.

The possibility of getting the grant, however, had officials scrambling. A local ordinance requires the town get voter approval before accepting any grants that incur future costs to taxpayers.

This grant, however, had a 30-day time limit for communities to accept it or reject it. That would have made waiting until town meeting next spring impossible.

Police and town officials were in the process of setting up a special meeting in case they won the grant when the Department of Justice made the announcement last week.

“We did hear, and we did not get it,” Wagner said, “so the special meeting is off.”

Claremont, Pelham and Manchester were the only New Hampshire communities out of the 17 that applied to have their requests funded. Claremont and Pelham each got roughly $200,000 for one officer while Manchester got more than $1 million for four officers.

Claremont and Manchester scored highest among the town for the grant, but Pelham was much further down the line, well below Conway.

Some awards went to communities that should have received money last

TAXES from page one

On August 27, 17,000 people picked up a copy of The Conway Daily Sun;

Another 10,302 PEOPLE READ THE DIGITAL VERSION ON THE INTERNET. The Sun reaches more people by far than any other news and advertising source in The Mount Washington Valley.

For rates and information on how affordable it is for your business to reach that many potential customers call 356-3456.

“That is our working number at this point to guide us until we meet with the DRA to set the tax rate toward the end of the month,” said town manager Earl Sires this week.

By comparison, the town applied $450,000 to offset taxes last year, and $300,000 in 2009.

Appearing before the board Tuesday, Lucy Philbrick, town finance director, said she recommended that $400,000 be used to offset taxes and $200,000 be kept in the fund balance at year's end, of which $42,000 could be available if needed for unanticipated expenses incurred by the police department.

The town has asked the DRA for permission to overspend the budget to cover that $42,000 expenditure.

“As I told selectmen Tuesday,” said Sires after the meeting, “there's a chance we will not have to overspend the budget if we can find the savings somewhere else, whether if we have

pellet boilers and laundry for the new home, and it may also hold the county’s branch of the University of New Hampshire Cooperative Extension.

Back in August, lawmakers decided they wanted to develop a plan for the core and tear down the wings of the facility for less than $1 million. The accuracy of the August meeting minutes and meaning of the August vote were debated at length on Monday (Oct. 3).

year, according to the Department of Justice spokesman Corey Ray. “We had to go back and fund those agencies.”

Ray was unable to confirm whether Pelham was among those agencies, but it finished seventh in 2010, when the Department of Justice gave out six grants.

Conway, meanwhile, is already looking to 2012.

“We’ll apply again and see where it goes,” Wagner said.

But this time the department plans to address the voter-approval issue before it comes up. Police will put an article on the warrant, Wagner said, to request permission from the voters before they even apply.

That may solve one problem a year from now, but the department faces immediate issues. The chief and the police commission have been saying for more than a year they need additional manpower, but vacancies keep popping up on their roster faster than they can fill them.

One officer is in the final stages of the hiring process with a department in Dover, Wagner said, and another has already been hired elsewhere: “His last day is today," Wagner said.

The department already had one vacancy.

“We actually extended a conditional offer yesterday,” Wagner said, plus another candidate looks promising. But even if those both work out the department will likely be shorthanded.

“We’ll probably have to run another hiring process when the second person leaves,” he said. a mild winter and our fuel expenses are down or deferred expenses somewhere else. So, we're hoping.”

“We're going to the budget committee to see what they think when they meet Wednesday night,” said Sires.

Selectman Mike DiGregorio voted against the motion, saying he was concerned about letting the fund balance get too low.

Selectman Larry Martin said he shared DiGregorio's concern, but he voted with selectmen Crow Dickinson, Mary Seavey and chair David Weathers for the motion to apply $400,000 toward the tax rate.

“I would like as Mike says to see that cushion up there, but in these tough times anything we can do to keep things flat [for the tax rate] helps,” said Martin.

Philbrick said she has received her needed rate information from all precincts and hopes to be able to give word to Sires and selectmen about the tax rate after hearing from the DRA this month.

a group of 14 state representitives, called the delegation, approves county budgets which county commissioners manage with help from department heads.

enough room in the core for DHHS. They wanted the delegation to rescind its decision to have the wings torn down.

But on Monday, lawmakers voted 9-2 against reconsidering their original plan.

“Now I hear let’s save a couple of wings because maybe we can get tenants to come in,” said Rep. Steve Schmidt of Wolfeboro explaining his stance prior to Monday’s vote. “I really don’t believe the county should be in the commercial real estate business, which is basically what you’re suggesting. I’m not moved by the argument that we might make a couple of bucks by renting it out.

I’m more moved by the argument that we will probably lose our shirts renovating it.”

But Rep. Harry Merrow, of Ossipee, was more open minded about seeing a proposal for DHHS and said he supported reconsideration.

“We’d be making a serious mistake if we didn’t look at everything that came down the pike,” said Merrow.

The process of bringing the motion not to reconsider the delegation’s previous decision became quite a complicated bit of parliamentary procedure.

Chairman Betsey Patten, of Moultonboro, reminded lawmakers that if they want to reconsider the August decision they need to vote “no,” and those opposed to reconsideration need to vote “yes.”

Then there were also questions about the underlying motion that they wished to reconsider.

Rep. Norman Tregenza, of Madison, questioned if he could revisit the issue of keeping the core at all. He said it would be better to bring in mobile units instead.

Tregenza recalled that the August vote to look at spending $1 million to save the core only passed by one vote and Rep. Frank McCarthy, of Conway, changed his mind just after it took place.

McCarthy said at the time he wanted a study of what the rehabilitation would cost without the extension service. McCarthy stressed the delegation never voted to spend $1 million to keep the core. According to McCarthy’s recollection, the delega-

tion agreed they were open to seeing a plan to keep only the core at a cost of $1 million or less.

In response to Tregenza, Rep. Christopher Ahlgren, of Wolfeboro, said the delegation never voted to keep the core. All the delegation did was ask the commission to create a plan to keep the core that cost less than $1 million. Ahlegren told Tregenza there would be an opportunity to vote against the core.

The delegation struggled to remember exactly what they did in August.

Commissioner Dorothy Solomon read the minutes of the meeting. The minutes said there was a vote on maintaining the core at a cost not to exceed $1 million. The motion carried 6-4.

Rep. Joe Fleck, of Wakefield, said he recalled that the delegation gave the commission the authority to tear down the wings and spend less than $1 million to keep the core.

Fleck got a strong reaction from McCarthy and Ahlgren. “No way!”

The representatives replied almost in unison.

“I don’t care what the minutes say,” said McCarthy who said the August vote was about seeing a plan and not approving spending. “Any time you grow government by renting out buildings and this and that, eventually it will come back to bite you.

That’s not what government is for — to rent buildings.”

Lawmakers piped up about the wings again just as Patten was trying to take the roll-call vote.

“Just do it!” said an exasperated Patten commanding her delegation to vote.

Wakefield resident Steve Brown gave the delegation a tongue lashing for not saving the wings. He wondered how lawmakers could come to that conclusion. He also had questions about a variety of other topics discussed at the meeting.

“If you’re going to save one square foot, save it all or get rid of it all,” said Brown. “As taxpayer in Carroll County what I witnessed here today I’m totally appalled at. What happened here today is a disgrace. The one thing that has to be renovated in this county is the members of the county delegation. It’s a circus and a disgrace.”

Town planning ahead for 250th anniversary celebration in 2015

BY TOM EASTMAN THE CONWAY DAILY SUN

CONWAY — The town of Conway will be observing its 250th birthday in 2015, and Conway Historical Society interim curator Jim Arnold and president Ken Rancourt told selectmen Tuesday that it's never too early to begin planning for that milestone.

Arnold and Rancourt told selectmen that he and fellow historical society

members are hoping that a committee can be formed to plan the celebration.

Selectmen agreed that it would be wise to begin advertising for community members to contact town hall, should they be interested in serving on such a committee.

“It's coming up, so we wanted to start talking about it now and to get ideas from people who would like to see next page

be part of it,” Arnold told The Conway Daily Sun Tuesday prior to his and Rancourt's meeting with selectmen.

“My thinking is we have plenty of time to work on it and do it right.”

Rancourt told selectmen that he envisions the celebration as a summer-long series of events.

“From a commercial point of view, it could bring in tourists while honoring our past — much as was recently done with the Weeks Act,” said Rancourt. He works for the Mount Washington Observatory, which presented a series this summer honoring the 100th anniversary of the law that led to the creation of eastern national forests, including the White Mountain National Forest.

Rancourt said the observatory was one of many organizations that participated in the 100th anniversary Weeks Act events with the U.S. Forest Service.

“They told us they had started 18 months ago, and that they should have started long before that. So, we feel that we ought to act on this, in [Arnold's] words, and to take direction from you guys,” said Rancourt.

Arnold envisions such a committee to include a representative from the board of selectman, the Conway Library's Henney History Room, the Conway Historical Society and the public.

“I do agree we should do some advertising on this. There are people with a tremendous amount of history in this town who should be part of it, and I agree that I would like to see it happen over the course of a summer versus something happening with one night of fireworks. It does take time to plan,” said selectman Mike DiGregorio.

Town manager Earl Sires said town staff would be happy to offer guidance and help but that the planning and follow-through should be a community effort, not a town government task.

The board ultimately voted 5-0 to advertise for volunteers to work with Rancourt and Arnold to help plan for the 250th celebration and to submit those plans to the board for approval.

Beard contests and more?

Allen brought along a copy of the commemorative booklet that was put together for the town's bicentennial celebration in 1965.

One of the activities in 1965 was asking all men in the community to grow beards — something that perhaps the community would like to do again as part of the 250th celebration, said Arnold.

“We had a photo exhibit at the historical society a couple of years ago which showed everyone with their beards,” said Arnold, a resident of the town for the past 19 years but whose eight great grandparents all hailed from Conway.

Former selectman Chet Lucy recalls that the town's bicentennial in 1965 had a big parade that went north up the Route 16 strip to North Conway Village.

“My brother Fred led the parade on Bob Fisher's horse. It was a big parade,” said Lucy, former owner of Conway Supply, who first served on the board of selectmen in 1968.

Janet Hounsell and Ruth Horne's book, “Conway, New Hampshire 1765-1997,” says that the bicentennial also featured tours of historical homes, sponsored by the Anna Stickney Chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution.

Co-chairs of the bicentennial were Barbara S. Lucy and Mrs. Robert H. Kennett. Members of the executive committee included Robert N. Davis, Mrs. L. Hamlin Greene, Doris E. Pitman, Carroll Reed, Ernest L. Richardson and Joan Sherman.

The booklet contains informative articles on Conway's farming, timbering and tourism past.

Wrote the co-chairs in the book's forward, “So in this year 1965 we all see ANNIVERSARY page 12

Foliage nearing peak in White Mountains CONCORD — The state of New Hampshire’s Office of Travel and Tourism released the following foliage report on Oct. 5: * Great North Woods (Grand North): The colors continue to dazzle all over the Great North Woods region. Despite some leaf drop which creates colorful carpets on the ground, the foliage is bursting into flaming reds and vibrant oranges.

Higher elevations are drenched with beautiful autumn colors. Some roads to consider for scenic drives in this region are Routes 3, 16, 26, 110, and 145. Be on the lookout for wildlife and use caution as you travel these roads; it’s common to spot wild turkeys, deer and moose. Remember that moose are wild animals and should be treated as such; keep your distance if you see one. Shutterbugs will want to hike trails through the woods and along the lakes for wonderful photo opportunities.

The foliage is good and strong here, and will stay that way for another week or so. * White Mountains Region: The foliage is at different levels all over the White Mountains region.

On the western side, the color is well-established; scenic drives along Routes 3 and Interstate 93 through Franconia Notch, and Route 302 through Crawford Notch will not disappoint leaf peepers.

Route 112 along the Kancamagus Highway is looking very colorful, with lots of reds and oranges along the Swift River. Route 49 through Waterville Valley is showing lots of yellows, reds and oranges along the banks of the Mad River. On the eastern side of the region, the color is becoming well-established, with plenty of green yet to change. Expect peak fall color to hit this area very soon. * Lakes Region: The foliage in the Lakes Region is right on schedule, with the majority of the area just beginning to turn. Look for nice yellows on the ash trees, red leaves on the sumac bushes, and orange maples edging rivers and ponds. The Belknap and Ossipee mountain ranges appear to be bathed in a smoky red haze from a distance; then the colors become more vivid the closer you get. Leaf peepers will see blasts of color along these roads: Routes 28, 109, 109A, and 171. Travel Route 11 along Lake Winnipesaukee for panoramic views, or take Route 113 and skirt around Squam Lake for a glimpse of early color. Another week or so will make a big difference in this region for color changes.

pause and reflect. We respect those in the past who helped our town develop. We thank those in the present who make the town's welfare their concern. We salute those in the future who will follow in our footsteps.”

According to Wikipedia, Conway was named for Henry Seymour Conway, ambitious son of a prominent English family, who was elected to the House of Commons at age 20, fought at the Battle of Culloden in Scotland, and with Pitt and Rockingham supported the cause of the colonies. He was made Secretary of State in 1765, and the town was named Conway that same year. Early settlers in the area had named the area Pequawket, known colloquially as Pigwacket, after the nearby mountain.

POLLS from page 3

According to the poll, 83 percent of Republicans say the GOP nominee — whoever he or she may be — is likely to claim the presidency next year.

Among Democrats, far fewer, 58 percent, say they think Obama will win a second term. A third of Democrats expect a GOP win; just 13 percent of Republicans sense a repeat for Obama.

Republicans who “strongly support” the Tea Party political movement are particularly confident: 91 percent of these Republicans say they think the GOP candidate will win the general election.

In Tuesday's interview, Obama conceded, the American people are "not better off" than they were four years ago.

"The unemployment rate is way too high," he said of the 9 percent jobless rate, the highest in more than half a century.

Obama believes his proposed American Jobs Act will put construction workers, teachers and veterans to work and give "more consumers more confidence."

"Foreign affairs, the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, and social issues like gay marriage will all be fodder on the campaign trail, but with the first caucus and primaries less than 100 days away, no issue looms larger for 2012 than the economy and jobs," ABC News states.

Obama's job approval rate is hovering at around 40 percent nationwide, but according to the Website American Research Group, the figure dips to 31 percent in the Granite State. The poll results were released Thursday.

Obama's approval ratings in New Hampshire have just 31 percent approving of his overall performance while 59 percent disapprove and 10 percent remain undecided.

When it comes to the economy, just 27 percent approve of the president's handling of it while 65 percent oppose and 8 percent are undecided.

"A total of 51 percent of New Hampshire residents say they are financially worse off compared to a year ago," the website states. "Thirty-seven percent say they are the same, and 12 percent say they are better off. Of the 31 percent saying they approve of the way Barack Obama is handling his job as president, 29 percent say they are better off, 50 percent say they are the same, and 21 percent say they are worse off. Of the 59 percent saying they disapprove of the way Obama is handling his job, 6 percent say they are financially better off, 29 percent say they are the same, and 65 percent say they are worse off compared to a year ago."

Dante Scala, a political science professor at the University of New Hampshire, said the notable shift in Obama's support "is among undeclared or independent voters. Sixty-seven percent of undeclared voters in the state say they disapprove of how the president has handled the economy."

Even though New Hampshire's unemployment rate is much lower than the national figure, Scala said voters here "are affected by rampant displeasure in the economy."

Obama lost New Hampshire's primary to Hillary Clinton in 2008 but triumphed over John McCain here with 54 percent in the general election. The state carries four electoral votes.

The American Research group poll was conducted by telephone from Sept. 25-29, surveying 547 adults in New Hampshire.

Republicans, Obama said Tuesday, have stood in the way of working with him time and again to fix the economy, opting to toe the party line.

"At every step of way, I have tried to get the Republican Party to work with me on the biggest crisis of our lifetime," Obama said. "And each time we've gotten 'No.'" Obama called the 2012 race a "contest of values and vision" and a referendum on whether Americans believed the government should invest now in long-term improvements in education and infrastructure.

According to the popular website Real Clear Politics, in the latest 2012 Republican Presi-

dential National Poll (conducted by ABC News/ The Washington Post, Sept. 29 through Sunday), former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney, with 25 percent of the vote, holds an 8 point lead over Texas Governor Rick Perry and businessman Herman Cain, who both are garnering 17 percent; followed by former Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich, 9 percent; Texas Congressman Ron Paul, 9 percent; Minnesota Congressman Michele Bachmann, 7 percent; former Pennsylvania Senator Rick Santorum, 2 percent; and former Utah Governor Jon Huntsman, 1 percent.

In New Hampshire, the Real Clear Politics average polling data from Aug. 15 through Sept. 21, Romney holds a 24 point lead with 38.7 percent of the vote. He is followed by Perry, 14.7; Paul, 13.7; Huntsman, 6.7; Bachmann, 6.7; Gingrich, 3.3; Cain, 2.7.

In a strategic effort to pursue its mission, the Board of Directors of the White Mountain Aquatic Foundation signed a lease with the New England Inn for use of their free-standing indoor pool in June of 2011. By providing a facility and programs we hope to promote awareness and support for our mission.

The White Mountain Aquatic Foundation is a non-profit corporation devoted to establishing a three pool, multiple use aquatic center in the Mt. Washington Valley. This facility is the missing piece in our community that will provide aquatic education, recreation, safety, competition, fitness and rehabilitation services. We believe this facility will enhance the health and quality of life, and strengthen the ties of community for our residents and visitors.

SUZE HARGRAVES

Peter, Peter, Pumpkin Eater One cup of this food contains 83 calories, zero grams of saturated fat, 1 total gram of fat, zero grams cholesterol, 12 milligrams of sodium, 7 grams of dietary fiber and 3 grams of protein. It’s a strong source of Vitamins E, B6, A and C. It’s got thiamin, niacin, folate, iron, magnesium, phosphorus, riboflavin, potassium, copper and manganese.

Sugars in this food are a bit high at 8 grams, but when you consider two Twinkies have 37 grams of sugar you can see how this mystery food might be a better choice.

So what is this food? It’s canned pumpkin.

Most people these days aren’t apt to serve pumpkin as a vegetable with dinner. It wasn’t always that way. Pumpkin was a critical source of nutrition for the Suze Hargraves Pilgrims. According to allaboutpumpkins.com (yes, there is such a website), “The Pilgrims cut the top off of a pumpkin, scooped the seeds out, and filled the cavity with cream, honey, eggs and spices. They placed the top back on and carefully buried it in the hot ashes of a cooking fire.

When finished cooking, they lifted this blackened item from the earth with no pastry shell whatsoever. They scooped the contents out along with the cooked flesh of the shell like a custard.” Of course, today we have the option of going for convenience when adding pumpkin to our diet in the form of canned pumpkin.

So what’s a person to do with canned pumpkin?

How about a quick and easy pumpkin bread that you can even let the kids make? Take a 15 ounce can of 100 percent pure pumpkin and scoop it into a bowl. Add one spice cake mix. Using an electric mixer beat until smooth. Pour into a greased loaf pan. Cook one hour at 350 degrees. No, there are no ingredients missing. It’s just that simple. Of course, if you’re watching your sugar, calories or carbohydrates remember that those cake mixes add to the overall nutrition picture so read your labels.

Canned pumpkin can be added to meals as well as making sweet treats. Pumpkin pancakes are a seasonal favorite and they’re not hard to make.

You’ll need 2 cups of boxed pancake mix, 1 1/2 cups of water, 3/4 cup canned pumpkin and a half a teaspoon of cinnamon. Using a large bowl mix the pancake mix and water until well blended. Add the pumpkin and cinnamon and mix until well blended. You can add a bit of water or a touch of extra pancake mix depending on how thick or thin you like your pancakes. From there you simply cook them like any other pancake. Sounds like a tasty fall breakfast!

If you’re not a canned product lover, fresh pumpkin is always an alternative. Look for small varieties with dark orange flesh. Eating pumpkins are commonly called “sugar pumpkins.” Cooking with fresh pumpkin is a lot more work, but worth it. Don’t let that big orange squash scare you.

Cook it exactly like you would any other fresh squash. For more info on cooking fresh pumpkin visit allrecipes.com/HowTo/baking-with-freshpumpkin/detail.aspx.

Fall is prime time for pumpkins! A handcarved jack-o-lantern is a fun decoration but eating pumpkin will really put a smile on your face!

Memorial Hospital volunteers purchase ceiling lifts for hospital CONWAY — Memorial Hospital Volunteers recently donated two ceiling lifts for the hospital’s radiology department’s CAT scan room and the emergency department’s X-ray room.

A ceiling lift is a battery operated device that makes it possible to safely and easily lift a patient from a stretcher, wheelchair or trauma board and transfer them to another location, such as a radiology table or CT Scan table, with very little disruption to the patient. This method of safely transferring patients also prevents potential injuries to staff.

“The ceiling lifts not only provide a smoother and safer mechanism for transferring patients, but guard against injuries to hospital employees. We are very fortunate to have this new piece of equipment,” said Sherry Cormier, RTR manager of Memorial’s imaging services.

The hospital volunteer organization’s by-laws and mission statement mandate that volunteers support the health care needs of the Hospital community.

Director of volunteers Joan Lanoie said, “Volunteers fulfill these roles by generously giving of their time in fulfilling various duties in departments throughout the hospital. They also raise funds for Memorial Hospital that directly benefit patients.”

In addition to the recent purchase of the ceiling lifts, Memorial Hospital volunteers have also donated funds to: purchase a commercial grade breast pump for the Family Birthing Center; a bariatric, or oversized, bed for the inpatient department; and special mattresses that prevent skin from breaking down when a patient is bed-

ridden for prolonged periods of time. “The value of all these gifts totals more than $20,000, with an additional $8,000 that volunteers donated to the hospital to provide scholarships for students pursuing health care careers,” Lanoie said.

The funds were donated entirely by hospital volunteers who donate their services to the

hospital’s Suncatcher Gift Shop, located in the main lobby. The shop, open to the community, as well as visitors and staff, offers a wide variety of gift items including: jewelry, clothing, and fresh flowers. All items are competitively priced with 100 percent of the proceeds being donated back for patient programs and services.

Wolfeboro Library presents program on Lyme Disease WOLFEBORO — The Wolfeboro Public Library will present a free showing of “Under Our Skin,” the critically acclaimed and Academy Award shortlisted documentary

by Andy Abrahams Wilson, on Sunday, Oct. 16, at 2 p.m. at the Kingswood Arts Center, McManus Road, Wolfeboro.

“Under Our Skin,” a 20-time winner at international film festivals, investigates one of the

most controversial and fastest growing epidemics of our time.

The film exposes the controversy surrounding Lyme disease, revealing deep fault lines in medical research, health care and insurance systems.

Following the stories of patients fighting for their lives, “Under Our Skin,” reveals a natural world out of balance and a human nature all too willing to put profits before patients.

A question and answer session with three health professionals will follow the film.

For more information about the film and the honors it has received visit www.underourskin.com.

For more information about this event, contact Cindy Scott at the Wolfeboro Public Library at wolfelibdir@metrocast.net or 569-2428. The film is not suitable for children.

Back Bay Rehab therapist completes training for jaw pain WOLFEBORO — Anne Hunt, a physical therapist at Huggins Hospital’s Back Bay Rehab, recently completed training with Dr. Robert Mitchell from the Center for Facial Pain in Scarborough, Maine. Dr. Mitchell is a nationally known clinician, researcher and innovator in applying physical medicine to the treatment of temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders. His work has proven that physical therapy modalities and home programs are the most effective treatment for most patients.

What are temporomandibular joint disorders or TMJ? By definition, TMJ disorder is a collection term embracing a number of clinical problems that involve the muscles of mastication (chewing), the TM joints and associated structures, or both. TMJ disorders can cause multiple problems that affect daily activity.

Symptoms may include headaches, nasal congestion, neck pain, clicking of the jaw, and/or abnormal sounds or pressure in the ear. Stress and depression can also worsen symptoms. Many people have habits that may aggravate jaw pain including frequent gum chewing, fingernail biting, clenching teeth together during the day, tooth grinding during sleep or biting on non-food items such as pens or ice. Another cause of pain can be blunt trauma from a motor vehicle accident or blow to the face.

Although professional help may be necessary, anyone experiencing jaw pain can do several self-help measures that may alleviate the pain. These include giving your jaw a rest by eating a soft diet, not chewing gum, and taking breaks from excessive talking, singing, and even smiling to allow the muscles in the face to relax. Foods to avoid should include hard rolls, bagels, nuts, carrots, whole apples, tough meats, caffeine (which can cause muscles to contract and become tenser), and large sandwiches. Moist heat applied to the neck and jaw will allow the muscles to relax.

While there are self-help measures, a referral for physical therapy can also help. Many people associate physical therapy with knee pain or shoulder pain. Similar to these issues, TMJ disorders are also musculoskeletal problems where physical therapy can have a positive impact. “To treat TMJ disorders with physical therapy, we may use modalities such as moist heat, massage, ultrasound, mobilization techniques, and exercise,” said Anne Hunt, physical therapist. “One of the most important aspects is patient education concerning posture, relaxation, and self-help techniques.”

If you find that you are suffering from jaw pain or TMJ, talk to your physician or dentist about a referral for physical therapy.

Therapists Harnesses the Power of the Horse for Rehabilitation Therapists have tapped into the unique benefits of horses for rehabilitation and therapeutic purposes. Rehabilitative equine programs offer patients with varied medical conditions the ability to take advantage of the unique movements of the horse. These planned and purposeful interactions between the patient and the horse create a truly unique type of intervention that fosters a wide range of beneficial outcomes.

Equine rehabilitative programs typically feature both therapeutic riding and hippotherapy.

Therapeutic riding is an umbrella term to catch the variety of equine activities in which people with disabilities partake. Hippotherapy (which does not involve the utilization of the hippopotamus) involves a therapist using a horse’s movement as a treatment strategy in order to improve function. The word is derived from the Greek word “hippos,” which means horse. Specially trained therapists, including physical therapists, occupational therapists and speech-language pathologists utilize this intervention in order to treat an eclectic array of movement dysfunctions. see WIGGIN page 20

Register now for Making Strides Against Breast Cancer

The American Cancer Society Making Strides Against Breast Cancer walk to fight breast cancer is Oct. 16. Team leaders are needed to pull together friends, family members, co-workers, and others to participate in the walk at Staples/Settlers’ Green.

Making Strides Against Breast Cancer is a noncompetitive, 3.5mile walk that unites thousands of women, men and children in the community to honor and celebrate breast cancer survivors, save lives, and create more birthdays by helping people stay well and get well, by finding cures, and by fighting back against cancer.

In 2010, more than 800,000 walkers nationwide raised more than $60 million, including 450

walkers in North Conway who raised almost $79,000, to support the American Cancer Society.

Cindy Hyatt, a local breast cancer survivor and Making Strides planning committee member shares why she participates in the event. “I Make Strides because when I was diagnosed with breast cancer, nothing about me wanted to be a victim of this disease. The American Cancer Society made that possible. First, they provided information. Once I knew the name of my particular cancer, I had access to specific information in lay terms about the disease, typical treatment options, and what I might expect with regard to treatment and prognosis. This helped me and

WIGGIN from page 19

Broadly speaking and for simplification, with therapeutic riding the intent is for the patient to try to influence and control the horse by teaching riding skills. With hippotherapy, the intent is to have the movement of the horse influence the patient as a treatment for neuromuscular function and sensory processing.

Equine therapy has recently received an explosion of publicity and interest. Highlighted in everything from TV, to newspapers, to medical journals for its therapeutic value, there seems to be something to the buzz. Although organized therapeutic riding is a relatively recent development, the value of therapeutic riding goes back centuries when the horse was used by multiple civilizations as a mode of transport. The advent of therapeutic riding as we know it today is generally credited to European roots and the achievements of Liz Hartel of Denmark who overcame the limitations of polio to win the silver metal for Grand Prix in the 1952 Helsinki Olympics. Soon thereafter, medically

oriented equine centers sprang up in Canada and America. The North American Riding for the Handicapped Association (NARHA) estimates that over 38,000 individuals received benefit from these activities last year and numbers continue to grow.

Therapeutic riding and hippotherapy is used for patients with a broad spectrum of disabilities and medical conditions. Some of these include muscular dystrophy, cerebral palsy (CP), multiple sclerosis (MS), Down syndrome, autism, mental retardation, spina bifida, spinal cord injuries, traumatic brain injuries, amputations, developmental delay, learning disabilities, hearing impairment, visual impairment, weight control disorders, terminal illness, ADD/ADHD, cerebral vascular accident (stroke), at risk youths, and limbic dystem fysfunction.

While there are many traditional rehabilitation/treatment approaches for the above patient populations, the horse provides a treatment that is a solely distinctive intervention.

The movements of the horse provide

Blood Drive in Madison Oct. 14 MADISON — American Red Cross will hold a blood drive Friday, Oct. 14, at the Madison Elementary School in Madison between 1 p.m. and 6 p.m., sponsored by the Mount Washington Valley Retired Educators.

This October the American Red Cross and the Boston Bruins are partnering to help ensure that blood is available for all patients in need.

a dynamic base of support, which inherently make it an ideal surface to challenge core/trunk strength and control, balance/proprioception, postural strength and endurance, sensory input, and motor planning.

While using the horse as a treatment medium, the patient must accommodate to the horses subtle movements by making adjustments through their trunk in order to maintain a stable position. The walking movement of the horse provides a spectrum of sensory input through movement that is variable, rhythmic, and repetitive.

This sensory input affects most every system responsible for sensation and control of movement — including the auditory, tactile, pain, proprioceptive, kinesthetic, and vestibular systems. Directing this sensory input is where the therapist comes into play.

The therapist grades the degree of this sensory input to the patient by controlling different aspects of the horse’s movement, position, and management. Utilizing various techniques and adaptive equipment, the therapist can then use this unique movement to achieve the desired results — whether it is improving muscle tone, balance, coordination, posture, sensation, or general mobility. These improvements can be generalized to functional outcomes with daily activities which require sitting, standing and walking.

There is a growing body of evidence which supports hippotherapy and equine activities for the treatment of various medical conditions. Multiple studies have been conducted

utilizing hippotherapy on patients with multiple sclerosis (MS), cerebral palsy (CP), spinal cord injury, and traumatic brain injury. Results are encouraging and appear to show beneficial trends for the improvement of postural stability, balance, regulation of muscle tone, functional motor performance, and symmetry of muscle activity. Positive results were also shown with spasticity reduction, improved coordination, energy expenditure, vital lung capacity, and range of motion. Trends were also shown for improved attention span and psychological status (including increased self-esteem and confidence and decreased anxiety and agitation). Many patients were found to respond enthusiastically to the unique relationship they formed with the horse, which elevates the motivation for improvement and the makes treatment process all the more enjoyable.

Therapeutic riding and hippotherapy is offered just south of the valley at Ravens Rest Ranch in Wolfeboro.

Staff includes Heather Boucher, PT, and Kim McStay, both of whom are certified by the NARHA as Therapeutic Riding Instructors.

Tin Mountain Renewable Energy Initiative helps lower the cost of solar hot water systems Bartlett Historical Society

Bartlett Town Column Amy Deshais adeshais@jbartlett.k12.nh.us

ALBANY — Tin Mountain Conservation Center has partnered with the Plymouth Area Renewable Energy Initiative (PAREI) to form a local arm of their very successful organization. PAREI is known for their community energy raisers, a neighbor helping neighbor concept of installing solar hot water systems on residential homes. The volunteer component of energy raisers lowers the cost of installation, provides local tradespeople a showcase for their skills, and strengthens bonds within a community. Since 2005, PAREI has organized over 180 installations using the energy raiser model.

The desire for local renewable energy options in the Mount Washington Valley was made apparent when more than 35 people showed up at an informational meeting in 2010, more than a dozen of them interested in installing a system on their own house, and everyone ready and willing to volunteer. Designated the Tin Mountain area Renewable Energy Initiative, TiMREI hit the ground running with an energy raiser scheduled before there was even a volunteer base.

Maggie Finn hosted TiMREI’s inaugural energy raiser last Nov. 6, 2010 at her home on the Conway/ Madison town line. The event was a rousing success with over three dozen volunteers helping to install her solar hot water array system in under six hours. In March of this year, TiMREI helped install a second system at the home of Nels Liljedahl in Fryeburg.

annual meeting Oct. 18

Local volunteers with Tin Mountain Renewable Energy Initiative are pictured helping to install a photo panel. If you are interested in being a volunteer or reducing your hot water heating costs by installing a system through this program call Tin Mountain at 603-4476991

“I’m taking a solar-heated shower every morning, and the payback on the system installed by the skilled TiMREI volunteers is only a year or two away,” according to Liljedahl. “Besides the obvious direct benefit to me, the solar raisers are a great way to meet and help neighbors and spread the word that solar is a proven clean and reliable energy source for the Valley.”

One of the key initiators of TiMREI is Russ Lanoie, who has been heating his domestic hot water in Madison with solar collectors for the past 30 years. “The technology has been at an operation level for years; however,

energy prices, rebates, climate change, and readily available integrated components have increased public interest. Our hope is that eliminating nearly all of the labor costs through TiMREI will make these solar hot-water applications irresistible.”

With three energy raisers now completed, TMREI is looking forward to installing many more systems here in the Valley. Keep an eye out for energy raisers in your neighborhood. To receive more information or become involved with TiMERI, contact Nora at Tin Mountain Conservation Center (447-6991).

David Goodwin

David Goodwin, 45, of Conway, passed away on Friday, Sept. 30, 2011, at Memorial Hospital in North Conway from complications from diabetes.

David was born July 27, 1966 at the Memorial Hospital to Brenda M. Goodwin, who passed away Jan. 1, 2010.

David was very well known in the valley. He was a lifetime resident of Conway except for a few years when he lived in Manchester. He was a jack of all trades, but was a carpenter by trade.

David leaves behind his son, Seth Bailey, of Fryeburg, Maine; a 7-month-old granddaughter; fiancee, Sandra Butler; brother, Michael Goodwin, of Conway; and his uncle, Raymond Phinney, of Conway. He is also survived by several aunts, uncles and cousins.

David will be laid to rest next BARTLETT from page 22

DAILY CROSSWORD TRIBUNE MEDIA SERVICES

by Lynn Johnston

DILBERT

by Scott Adams

By Holiday Mathis SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21).

There’s a fine line between being assertive and being pushy. You are aware that an over-demanding attitude will keep opportunities at bay. Therefore, you carefully choose your top needs and ask for them sweetly.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21).

Though hearing a loved one extol your virtues would be a pleasure indeed, you would prefer to see love demonstrated.

The one who makes your life easier is the one who really loves you.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19).

New ideas are difficult to put across.

Everyone is a skeptic. You have to work extra hard to bring in familiar elements, so as not to frighten your audience away. Ultimately, your showmanship will sell it.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18).

Love at first sight doesn’t apply only to people. You’ll experience the phenomenon today. You’ll know the moment you lay eyes on the prize that you simply have to have it.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Congratulatory talk is in order, and it will come from you and also be directed at you. You are an essential part of a team that is by all accounts winning today.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Oct. 6).

Travel and education give you a sense of expansion that you’ll carry into relationships. Your generosity of spirit will attract both kindred souls and those who could use your help. There’s a fortuitous deal in November and another in May. December favors a change in personal policy and/or politics. February brings a move. Pisces and Leo people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 10, 4, 33, 19 and 22.

Get Fuzzy

ARIES (March 21-April 19). It seems unfair that someone so easily accomplishes the very thing that you struggle incessantly to do. The fairness of it doesn’t change the situation.

Forget about the others, and work with what you have.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). It doesn’t matter where you are in the giving circle; helping and being helped are part of the same energy. There’s no shame in giving or in receiving, in having or in having not.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You will clear out some old, stale atmosphere.

This probably has to do with getting rid of papers and email messages you don’t need or ridding yourself of other clutter to invite in new energy.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). You are where you are. It’s a good place, once you stop wishing you were somewhere else. That is the tricky part, however.

“Over there” looks so appealing now.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). The names of all the people who have wronged you, and there have been many, are etched on a secret list kept in the back of your mind. You’ll let it go one of these days, but right now there’s still something to learn from the memory.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You’ll be an influential talker. You’ll hold a spirited parley while bringing your wares to the good people who can appreciate them.

You’ll end the day richer than you were when you started.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You win by dogged persistence. Yet you make this look somehow graceful -- you don’t even sweat. Perseverance gains you what others miss by giving up too soon.

Yesterday’s Answer

THE CONWAY DAILY SUN, Thursday, October 6, 2011— Page 25

Today is Thursday, Oct. 6, the 279th day of 2011. There are 86 days left in the year.

Today’s Highlight in History: On Oct. 6, 1981, Egyptian President Anwar Sadat was shot to death by extremists while reviewing a military parade.

On this date: In 1536, English theologian and scholar William Tyndale, who was the first to translate the Bible into Early Modern English, was executed for heresy.

In 1683, thirteen families from Krefeld, Germany, arrived in Philadelphia to begin Germantown, one of America’s oldest settlements.

In 1884, the Naval War College was established in Newport, R.I. In 1927, the era of talking pictures arrived with the opening of “The Jazz Singer,” starring Al Jolson.

In 1939, as remaining military resistance in Poland crumbled, Adolf Hitler delivered a speech to the Reichstag blaming the Poles for the Nazi-Soviet invasion of their country.

In 1949, U.S.-born Iva Toguri D’Aquino, convicted of treason for being Japanese wartime broadcaster “Tokyo Rose,” was sentenced in San Francisco to 10 years in prison (she ended up serving more than six).

In 1958, the nuclear submarine USS Seawolf surfaced after spending 60 days submerged.

In 1973, war erupted in the Middle East as Egypt and Syria attacked Israel during the Yom Kippur holiday.

In 1979, Pope John Paul II, on a weeklong U.S. tour, became the first pontiff to visit the White House, where he was received by President Jimmy Carter.

In 1989, actress Bette Davis died in Neuilly-sur-Seine (nu-yee-sur-sehn), France, at age 81.

One year ago: A presidential investigating commission said the Obama administration had blocked efforts by government scientists to tell the American public just how bad the Gulf oil spill could become and committed other missteps that raised questions about its competence and candor during the crisis.

Today’s Birthdays: Broadcaster and writer Melvyn Bragg is 72. Actress Britt Ekland is 69. Singer Millie Small is 65.

Singer-musician Thomas McClary is 62.

CBS chief executive officer Les Moonves is 62. Rock singer Kevin Cronin is 60. Rock singer-musician David Hidalgo is 57. Actress Elisabeth Shue is 48. Singer Matthew Sweet is 47. Actress Jacqueline Obradors is 45.

Country singer Tim Rushlow is 45. Rock musician Tommy Stinson is 45. Actress Amy Jo Johnson is 41. Actress Emily Mortimer is 40. Actor Lamman Rucker is 40. Actor Ioan Gruffudd is 38. Actor Jeremy Sisto is 37.

Rhythm-and-blues singer Melinda Doolittle is 34. Actor Wes Ramsey is 34.

VAST MAJORITY OF READERS WOULD HAVE CHILDREN AGAIN

DEAR ABBY: In response to your poll (Aug. 24), “If you had it to do over again, would you have children?” my answer is, “I SURE WOULD!” Being a parent made me a better, more tolerant, more patient person and more willing to take risks. It wasn’t always easy. My son’s father left me when I was four months pregnant. With the help of my dear mother, I returned to work, completed my college degree and became a schoolteacher. I have so many wonderful memories. My son is grown now and works with special needs children, and I am proud of the man he has become. -- MOM IN SAN DIEGO DEAR MOM: Your feelings reflect the opinions of 78 percent of my readers, who voted yes to that question. The mail I received was profoundly touching. My newspaper readers comment: DEAR ABBY: I’m sitting in my oncologist’s office, waiting to be seen. Tomorrow is one year since I finished chemotherapy.

Would I have children again? Absolutely. My husband and three amazing sons have brought so much love, joy and happiness to my life. It would have been hard living through two bouts of cancer 10 years apart, a mastectomy, chemo, radiation, surgery and hopelessness without these wonderful men in my life. They encouraged and supported me all along the way.

Childbirth was painful, but if I was told I had to go through it again every month to have my children, I’d do it. Knowing I helped to create them makes me feel incredibly blessed. -JEANNE IN BONITA SPRINGS, FLA. DEAR ABBY: I’m a 44-year-old black woman. I feel a deep gratitude and am privileged to be a mother to my two daughters. I get to help shape and mold them and see how they

bloom. My journey to my girls was through adoption. God gave me a wonderful gift when we were placed together.

Parenting is challenging and hard. Anyone who thinks differently is mistaken. But it’s something I’m proud of and love wholeheartedly.

My sister has asked me on two separate occasions if I regret my decision. Never! -- EVA IN PHOENIX DEAR ABBY: If I could go back, I would not do it again.

My children are beautiful, smart, caring and funny. I loved doting on them when they were little. However, I never realized what was coming -- that as teenagers they’d be needy, selfish, costly and ungrateful. Nothing is ever good enough.

I get the brunt of the bad moods, the hateful words and the cold shoulders.

Had I known how hard this was going to be and the sacrifices I’d have to make, I would have said no. If I had any idea that I’d love them so much that their pain is my pain, I would have said no. -- ANONYMOUS IN TEXAS DEAR ABBY: My answer is an emphatic NO! I love my son and care for my stepchildren, but for the few joys that I have received it wasn’t worth the heartaches.

I have spoken to many parents about this. They all seem to feel the same. These adult children have a sense of entitlement and no respect. Frankly, I should have raised dogs!!! -NO NAME IN GEORGIA DEAR ABBY: Would I have children again? Absolutely, every one of them from my first, who is a special needs child who may never be able to live independently, to the youngest, who was only 4 when his dad left. The only change I’d make is I would have them with someone other than their dad, who just wasn’t up to the job of being a parent. -- WISER NOW IN MINNESOTA

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

MWV Mountaineers get win in Mud Bowl like conditions, 14-12

–––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– SPORTS –––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––

BY THOM POLLARD The Mount Washington Valley Mountaineers Football program improved their record to 4-1 by beating the Seacoast Titans in a rainy mess of a game, 14-12 in Dover on Sunday.

With this victory the Mountaineers further solidified their first place standing in the Patriot Division of New Hampshire Pop Warner Football.

The win versus the Titans was not pretty.

But, any win is a pretty win. Two monster runs early in the game made the difference: a 55 plus yard sweep by co-captain QB Will Pollard, of Bartlett; and a 95-yard sprint by Hunter Bousquet, of North Conway. Both touchdowns came in the first quarter, making it look like MWV would cruise to a win.

But, the game was anything but easy. The pouring rain made it impossible to hold onto the ball for both teams, and fumbles occurred on at least every other set of downs. After the Mountaineers changed to last year’s heavier, all leather footballs, there were far fewer fumbles on the Mountaineers side.

The Titans were not to be deterred by the early 14-0 score. They fought back and played their hearts out. With the most dangerous elements of the Mountaineers game taken away, speed and a deadly passing game, the Titans got down and dirty, snagging a couple touchdowns early in the second half.

Additionally, due to injury, the Mountaineers were playing without standout co-captains Garrett Brown and Devan Bynoe, of North Conway. But, the Mountaineers stepped up to the plate, stopping the Titans cold on both point after attempts.

Little did the Mountaineers know that this would be the decisive factor in the game.

While the offense made up the bulk of the video highlights early on for the Mountaineers, the remaining balance of the game was all about big plays on defense.

Co-captains Nick Armstrong, of Brownfield, Ryan Stevens, of Bartlett, wore down the Titans

offensive with multiple tackles each.

In his first game ever in a Mountaineers uniform, Nick Sherwood, of Fryeburg, showed up consistently, making more than a handful of unassisted tackles.

With less than three minutes on the clock, the Mountaineers had possession of the ball. All they needed was one more first down to run the clock out for the win. Two plays later, the MWV fumbled on a run to the right.

The fate of the game was now in the hands of the Mountaineers defense.

On their first play of the series, the Titans tried a sweep to the left. But, Pollard read the play and wrapped his arms around the runner, when Sherwood and Devin Wylman, of Conway, took him down for no gain.

Second play of the series and the Mountaineers were called five yards for offsides, moving the ball into their territory with 2:15 on the clock. Titans went unsuccessfully to the air on the next play.

On third down, the Titans tossed an option pass to the right side. Dominic Gilmore, of Conway, appearing in his first game this season, made a deafening statement with a solo tackle well behind the line of scrimmage.

On fourth and long, the Titans QB dropped back for a pass, but before he could look for a receiver, T.O. Scarlett, of North Conway and Kyle Bennett, of Fryeburg busted through the line for a huge loss.

Both Scarlett and Bennett were huge contributors on both offense and defense, as can be attested to their completely muddied uniforms.

The Mountaineers took over the ball, running the game out by taking a knee on the next three plays, notching their fourth win of the season.

MWV meets the Southern New Hampshire Steelers in its final home game on Oct. 16 (1:30 p.m.) at Millen Stadium at Kennett High School in Redstone.

After a bye week on the team will vie for a New Hampshire Patriot Division State Championship banner on the weekend of Oct. 29.

New Hampshire senior men’s 4.0 tennis team to compete in California The Senior Men’s 4.0 tennis team from Algonquin Indoor Tennis Center in Hooksett will represent New England at the USTA National Championships Oct. 13-16 in Indian Wells, Calif.

Algonquin captured the USTA New England Section Championship on August 21 in Holyoke, Mass., beating Racket and Fitness of Portland, Maine, in the final, after defeating teams from Vt., Mass. and R.I..

The format of the 50-and-older competition is three doubles matches.

Algonquin’s No. 1 team of Ron Lafond, of Allenstown, and Greg Coache, of Bow, went 4-0 at Sectionals, including a pivotal three-set win against Westford, Mass., clawing back after a 6-1 defeat in the first set to even the match in a second-set tiebreaker.

Also undefeated in Holyoke were Gary Hirshberg and Adam Hirshan, captain, both of Concord, playing No. 3. Hirshan also won at No. 2 with Doug Foster, of Spofford and at No. 3 with Rick Paquin, of Manchester.

Foster and Paul McManus, of Nashua, notched a key win at No. 2 as well. John Pelkey, of Derry, contributed to the team’s winning effort at Sectionals.

Hirshan hopes to field the same roster at Nationals, where Algonquin will face the top senior men’s teams from each of the other 16 USTA Sections at the 4.0 level.

Other members of the Algonquin team who did not play in the Section Championships are Ken Gould of Londonderry, John Duckless, of Hooksett, and David Caza, of Hooksett.
