Romney: Madison Lumber Mill a business success story

BY DAYMOND STEER THE CONWAY DAILY SUN

OSSIPEE — Presidential candidate Mitt Romney told a crowd of about 200 people at Madison Lumber Mill that he will make America a better place for businesses to invest.

But some voters on hand wondered if the former Massachusetts governor is in touch with the strug-

Madison Lumber Mill president Kim Moore, who bought the mill with his business partner, Jim Smith, in 2003, introduced the former Massachusetts Governor to the crowd.

Romney acknowledged that Moore and Smith took see MILL page 11

CONWAY — The country cannot afford four more years under President Barack Obama.

That’s the message former Massachusetts governor and 2012 GOP presidential hopeful Mitt Romney brought with him when he met with the editorial board of The Conway Daily Sun on Monday.

“We are on a road to Greece and Italy,” he said, referring to two countries in the Eurozone on the verge of bankruptcy. “This is a crisis.”

The country is heading toward a cliff, he said. The plunge is five to 10 years out if nothing changes.

What will it take to avert economic disaster? Someone in the president's seat with a history of creating jobs, Romney said. Someone with experience reachsee ROMNEY page 9

BARTLETT — Town officials are hoping voters will come out for a special town meeting the day after Christmas, and that they will still be in a generous mood.

“It’s inconvenient for everybody,” select-

The selectmen will be asking for permission to bond up to $2 million at the Dec. 26 meeting, money the town says it needs to pay for infrastructure repairs following Hurricane Irene.

DETROIT (NY Times) — “A Christmas Story, based on the 1966 book “In God We Trust: All Others Pay Cash” by the humorist Jean Shepherd, “A Christmas Story” has been embraced by fans for its tale of a late-Depression-era Christmas and a boy named Ralphie with a wish for a BB gun,” has been turned into an almost $5 million musical.

It’s currently on a five-city tour, with hopes to build a holiday franchise in whatever location it plays. Broadway is the ultimate goal, where, even with mixed reviews, shows like “Dr. Seuss’ How the Grinch Stole Christmas! The Musical,” “Elf” and “Irving Berlin’s White Christmas” have had lucrative seasonal runs.

At a recent performance in Detroit of “A Christmas Story: The Musical!,” applause rippled through the 2,100-seat Fisher Theater when famous scenes from the film began to unfold. During intermission, Frances Colucci, who owns the “Christmas Story” board game and watches the annual marathon on TBS, said taking her children to see the musical was a no-brainer.

“We know all the lines, so you can almost be participating in the show because you know what they’re going to say next,” she said in the lobby, where the gift shop was stocked with miniature night lights in the shape of leg lamps, a nod to one of the movie’s most recognizable props.

Markets slide on Euro and Intel ––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– WORLD/NATION–––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––

(NY Times) — Stocks in the United States declined Monday and losses steepened in Europe as investors reassessed last week’s European Union summit meeting and reacted to a new warning that the sovereign debt crisis could get worse.

The declines came in the wake of a rally at the end of last week, when investors waded back into stocks in hope that European leaders on Friday could deliver much-needed fire-

power to help lift the region out of its crisis.

Monday’s activity suggested that investors now believe the meeting was inconclusive at best. In a reminder of the pressure on the European Union, Moody’s Investors Service noted Monday that it is reviewing the ratings of debt in European Union countries for a possible downgrade. S.&P. is expected to announce the results of its own review as soon as this week. Cuts in credit ratings, par-

ticularly for the so-called core euro zone countries, could play havoc with bailout plans.

“It looks like a reversal out of what was, from my standpoint, unwarranted optimism on Friday,” said Keith B. Hembre, the chief economist and chief investment strategist at Nuveen Asset Management.

“It is a little bit of a puzzle as to why the market tends to act so euphoric going into these meetings only to act so disappointed.”

Billionaire, ex-minister to Supreme Court to rule on oppose Putin in election immigration law in Arizona MOSCOW (NY Times) — Amid a crescendo of complaints from Russians fed up with the country’s tightly controlled political system, two prominent figures — a billionaire industrialist and the recently ousted finance minister — sought to fill a void in the opposition leadership on Monday.

The billionaire, Mikhail D. Prokhorov, who owns shares in an array of other ventures in Russia as well as the New Jersey Nets basketball franchise in the United States, said he would run for president, challenging Prime Minister Vladimir V. Putin.

“I made a decision, probably the most serious decision in my life: I am going to the presidential election,” Prohkorov said. He has barely appeared in public since mid-September, when he was removed as the head of a pro-business party, Just Cause, after clashing with Kremlin political strategists.

Meanwhile, the former finance minister, Aleksei L. Kudrin, said he would form a new party to push for liberal reforms. Like. Prokhorov, Kudrin was expelled from the Kremlin’s inner circle this fall.

WASHINGTON (NY Times) — The Supreme Court on Monday agreed to decide whether Arizona may impose tough anti-immigration measures. Among them, in a law enacted last year, is a requirement that the police there question people they stop about their immigration status.

The Obama administration challenged parts of the law in court, saying that it could not be reconciled with federal immigration laws and policies. The United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit, in San Francisco, blocked enforcement of parts of the law in April. The administration challenged four provisions.

The most prominent was a requirement that state law enforcement officials determine the immigration status of anyone they stop or arrest if officials have reason to believe that the individual might be an illegal immigrant. The provision also requires that the immigration status of people who are arrested be determined before they are released.

MANCHESTER — Tense steel cables, rather than traditional guardrail beams, will be stopping errant cars from crossing an Interstate 93 median and slamming into oncoming traffic.

Last month, workers finished installing the first-ever cable rails in New Hampshire. The rails are strings of horizontal cables designed to snag vehicles that veer into the highway median.

The cable rails went up more than three years after the New Hampshire Union Leader raised the issue of cross-over accidents on city highways, especially one deadly stretch of I-93 where four people, including two children, died between 2004 and 2007.

“It provides for a level of safety we feel is adequate,” said Ron Grandmaison, a project manager for the state Department of Transportation. “It’s going to contain the vehicles that are more apt to go across.”

State Rep. Will Infantine, who raised the issue of crossover accidents years ago, said he’s pleased with the cable rails, given the financial constraints the Department of Transportation is under.

“Anything has got to be an improvement to what they have there now,” Infantine said.

The Manchester Republican said he twice tried to raise the issue with the DOT in 2008 and had no success.

But once the New Hampshire Union Leader wrote about the accidents, the DOT started addressing crossover accidents.

They continue to be a problem. Last

week a New Hampshire State Police trooper was hurt when his cruiser crossed a narrow median at Exit 8 on Route 101 and slammed into a tractortrailer. State police have yet to explain the reason for the crossover.

The cable rails address a deadly spot on I-93 between Exits 8 and 10.

The median width is about 90 feet.

Federal guidelines say that’s more than enough room to prevent crossover head-on accidents.

But with the significant number of crossover accidents and fatalities, the Federal Highway Administration allowed the use of highway safety improvement funds to create a barrier.

The state opted for the cable rails, which cost $230,000, Grandmaison said.

They work differently from guardrails, which deflect wayward cars back onto the roadway.

Cable rails are to cars what a spiderweb is to an airborne fly. The 3/4inch, woven cables snag the vehicle.

The cables can stretch as much as 12 feet before stopping the vehicle.

“Believe it or not, this has actually snagged tractor-trailers,” said DOT spokesman Bill Boynton.

The wire is held steady by 3-foothigh posts, which break away easily upon impact. After an accident, the posts must be restored and the wires racheted back in place.

Grandmaison said cable rails can’t be used everywhere. The median has to be wide enough. Trees and rocks can’t be behind the wires. Nor can a median have much of a slope, or a snagged car will overturn.

“This was a perfect opportunity for us to install it the first time,” he said.

Bill poses historic threat to civil liberties To the editor: The U.S. Senate last week approved an omnibus bill which contains elements which pose a historic threat to our civil liberties.

De. 1, the Senate voted 93 to 7 to pass the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) for 2012. It includes provisions which many legal observers and experts believe authorize the president to send the military anywhere in the world, including within the United States itself, to imprison civilians indefinitely without charge or trial. Detainees would be denied due process and Miranda rights. In effect, this would allow the American military to do to American citizens what the Redcoats did to American patriots before the Revolution.

The House of Representatives passed its own version of the legislation in May, so now the two bills are being reviewed by a joint committee for reconciliation. Meanwhile, the White House threatened a veto, saying the bill would “make the job of preventing terrorist attacks more difficult.” But without public pressure, President Obama might just decide not to veto to avoid the political headache.

The provisions were opposed by a broad consensus of those responsible for executing counter-terrorism policy, including Secretary of Defense Leon Panetta, CIA Director David Petraeus,

FBI Director Robert Mueller, Director of National Intelligence James Clapper, and White House Advisor for Counterterrorism John Brennan.

One of the Senators enthusiastically in favor of the arbitrary detention provisions is New Hampshire’s own Sen. Kelly Ayotte (R).

Ayotte claims the bill is needed because “America is part of the battlefield.” She also sponsored an amendment (since withdrawn and referred to committee) to repeal the 2009 Executive Order which bans the use of torture.

Our other senator, Jeanne Shaheen (D) also ended up voting for the bill, though she had earlier supported an amendment since defeated that would have required military custody only for terrorist suspects captured abroad.

Capitol Hill watchers believe the reconciled language of the bill could be back on the floor of both houses within a week. The House has already voted 406-17, to close portions of the NDAA discussions to the public. Not a good sign.

It is feared that the plan is to push the bill through with a minimum of debate.

So now is the time to act.

Please, Mainiacs and New Hampshirites alike, take a few moments to call your senators and congressman, and tell them not to tread on our Bill of Rights.

Never leave any lures or fishing line in water or bushes or on shore To the editor, and to all fishermen, women, and children: Please, never leave your lures or fishing line in the water or stuck in bushes or on the shore.

On the calm sunny morning of Dec. 2, I enjoyed a kayak paddle on Province Lake. I saw lots of Common Mergansers, four Hooded Mergansers, a lone Loon in winter plumage (probably young of the year), and lots of other black and white ducks that fly when I am so far away that I still cannot identify them. I suspect they are Buffleheads or Goldeneyes.

I paddled into the marsh and saw a small black duck with yellow eyes dive underwater and away. Haven’t identified that one yet.

But then I saw the little female Red-breasted Merganser. She didn’t fly immediately and I had time to focus my binoculars, only to find that her beak and head were wrapped with fishing line. She pecked and pulled at it to no avail. As soon as I paddled closer she flapped up and over a large log, then up over a beaver dam and was gone. I could not follow her.

Being wrapped in fishing line is surely a death sentence. Please, never leave any behind. And a plea to all paddlers, if you ever see a lure or line, please take the time to gather it all up and bring it home to dispose of it.

Tele-Talk

Do you support reducing the number of teaching teams at Kennett Middle School from four to three?

There were 21 responses to this week’s Tele-Talk question: “Do you support reducing the number of teaching teams at Kennett Middle School from four to three?” Thirteen people said they supported reducing the number of teaching teams, six did not.

They should do more than reduce the number of teams from four to three, they should reduce staff all over the place because this town cannot afford all the schools. I think it’s a great idea they’re talking about closing an elementary school. They should have done that before they built a new school, so they wouldn’t have had to build a new one. See how dumb this town is?

Yeah, they should probably eliminate a team, maybe. Good idea.

The answer is yes. Lots of times if you work harder, you’ll look better.

Good idea.

I think we should reduce the number of teaching teams because that is the information that was given to us as being suggested when the enrollment gets under 300. However, I think that a projected enrollment should be done for the coming three or five years and that we should be given more factual information to base decisions on. So, if this is going to be put to the voters, we should have information on how much it’s going to cost included ion that question on the ballot. And also, I think the school board needs to stop micromanaging every detail of things and allow people with the information to make these decisions to use their best judgement and not always make it a popularity poll or something to be determined by a few. I’m totally in favor of a good education for our kids but I know it can be done with a few more kids in each classroom without any problem. I’m from Conway.

Yes, I do. Absolutely. Scott from Glen.

Yes, I definitely support reducing the number of teaching teams. Every other business in the North Country and everything else, if there’s less people they lay off people. It’s about time the schools started waking up. Look at Jackson. A little four-room school, you can’t even get another car in the parking lot there’s so many teachers there.

When my kids whent there there were three. Now I can’t even count them all.

So, Jackson and Conway are in the same boat. Let’s start reducing staff.

My God, yes, we need to reduce the number of teacher teams at Kennett Middle School. They ought to start there and do a lot more.

If you do not have the amount of students to require these four teams, then why keep them? What would these four teams be doing with a reduced amount of students. Would they be writing campaign literature for the great community organizer, being forced to do this by the thuggery of the NEA union to which they belong? No. I cannot pay my heating oil bill. I do not have enough money to buy gasoline, and you’re going to keep these high-priced teachers when they don’t have any stu-

dents to teach? It’s an outrage. Just go to the parking lots of those schools and look at the vehicles they drive. None of them are over a year or two old. Let’s stop this nonsense of pampering these teachers. You don’t have students, then you go. Goodbye. I need money to pay my heating bill. I want my taxes reduced. Not you teachers writing campaign materials for the worst president the United States ever had.

This is Mary calling from Freedom.

I’m not quite sure how they can reduce the teams from four to three because when you read the article and they talk about the number of students, it seems the only way you can make the reduction work is if you mix both seventh and eighth grade so all teams are seventh and eighth grade. It will be interesting to see how this plays out and what my tuition then will be paying for next year.

I support reducing the number of teaching teams at Kennett Middle School from four to three and the ones that say that the board members are so concerned that the quality of education would be compromised almost sounds like a threat to me. Maybe they ought to be questioned a little bit closely on why they think that.

I do not support reducing the number of teaching teams at Kennett Middle School from four to three. I believe that looking at it solely from the perspective of reducing teams may be shortsighted. I believe we need to recognize the administrator’s efforts over the past years and his ability to reduce per-pupil cost. There are many aspects of the per pupil costs that are beyond an administrator’s control, such as the increased cost of health care, and agreements made within a collective bargaining agreement, as well as general operating costs of a school. I think to look at just narrowing a team from four to three may be short-sighted because we’re not recognizing the efforts that he’s made in reducing his overall budget over the years, when other schools have not been able to accomplish that same task.

Regardless, I think we need to change the language that we’re using, and if it’s a percentage that we wish the middle school to be cut for operating costs then we need to leave out the language of how many teams an administrator chooses to use, because it often lends to confusion for a lot of people, understanding the way that an administrator chooses.

Whether it’s one team, five teams, three teams or four teams, the overall cost will remain unchangeable. Mr. Richard has been able to reduce the costs where we’ve neglected to see that costs have not been reduced on the same scale at our other educational facilities in the Valley. I think he’s done an excellent job and we shouldn’t confuse or micromanage his abilities.

Reducing from four teams to three teams is a classic case of “If it isn’t broke, fix it until it is.” Without knowing how the three teams will be structured makes it way too early to change from the current four team format.

The impact the change will bring will

do harm to the symmetry that now exists. The little bit of money saved is not worth the decline in student performance. Mark Hounsell.

I is a 2003 Kenett Hi school graduit.

All my teechers they done really good edukatin me espcially those in Math and engelish, Please dont’ make them teeching taems go from 4 to 3 or we mite have graduits that have many porblems getting a job becaus they cant’ read or right or do necesary Math. After I finishd Kenett I go into marine core. now I have good job workin at mc donalds.

Absolutely! School systems are like the government; they’re too big, too costly, there’s too much waste, and they think too highly of themselves! Once they get their hands on the money, they don’t want to let go. Many in the teaching profession are genuinely well intentioned; yet misguided. We don’t need four teams. Back off to three, and cut the budget. Thirty-five years ago, most of my high school classes had upwards of 30 students per class and I still got accepted to one of the best colleges in the country, earned a merit based two-thirds scholarship, and worked to pay the rest without a single student loan; then over the next 30 years built several businesses and retired at 52! Wow, riddle that! Hey voters, get your heads out of the sand, it’s the student and the parents; that’s the most important “team”! Quality education is important, but seriously, hip-hop dancing at school? Cut that budget in half, teach the basics, get tough, and parent’s do your job and fill in the blanks. The kids will not suffer; they will be better off! Let’s ask ourselves why student enrollment is declining? I’ll tell you why: nobody can afford to live or raise a family here anymore! The property taxes are out of control, and you can point directly to that outrageous school budget!

I am undecided about whether or not it would be wise to cut the teaching staff at the Kennett Middle School by 25 percent. I believe there should be many public hearings, at least three on this matter. Those that want to cut should bring forth proof that the teaching staff is way over staffed and the ratio of teachers to student exceeds state averages by 25 percent. If this is true then it would be wise to lean in favor of the cut. However, if the teachers bring forth using actual facts that by having the extra staff drastically improved the quality of education above the state average for the majority of the students then I would not be in favor of the cut. Without the above presentation of facts the only question that comes to my mind is, could cutting the staff by 25 percent loose the personal attention that we hope is sometimes given and lots of times needed for our students?

Without the public hearings of questions and answers I would have to be against cutting the teaching staff. I consider myself a conservative, however I hope to continue to be a responsible conservative for the future of everything we as a nation hold dear.

And I ask my fellow conservatives to think of the possible outcome of your decisions, before you take out an ax and chop down that cherry tree for firewood think about all the lost fruit.

Dave from Tamworth.

Get rid of all four “teams” and replace them with someone that will teach a trade, rather than how to get into college only to party and graduate with a worthless degree. This is Ralph in Eaton.

Of course I support the reduction in teams. If enrollment goes down, other things have to go down. That’s pretty easy to understand. As editorials in The Union Leader continue to report, most other schools in New Hampshire are doing this on their own, but our “courageous” school board members say let’s let the voters decide. Now that’s new version of cowardice and it’s a sickening one. Why do these clowns think we elected them in the first place — to abdicate their responsibilities? I think not. Do what you are supposed to do and have the courage and conviction to make decisions. Stop being cowards who seem to be afraid of your own shadows or maybe you are afraid of the despicable Education Coalition that tore our town apart last year. If enrollment is projected to go down, then reduce the teams. And oh, by the way, as for the new budget coming in low, that’s not because of anything you did. It’s because a bond is being retired. For a better picture of how you are doing, remove the savings from the bond retirement and then look at the mess you have created. Just how dumb do you think we are? Conway.

The following Tele-Talk responses were posted on The Conway Daily Sun’s Facebook page:

No! Kids that have a harder time in school will suffer. It is hard enough now, with four teams, for the teachers to help the kids that need extra help. If you take away staff, less help will be available. And kids that start struggling in middle school continue to struggle and fail in high school. It will not only hurt us now but in our future.

Anyone that would be for the reduction in the teams are jealous of their own children. They’re afraid to raise children who could and would go further than they did due to having a better education. And imagine kids with such great role models. They’ll grow up to be clones in minimum wage jobs.

I think we should build a new high school instead.

The quality of education at both the middle and high school sucks. In six years of a Kennett education, I was not prepared at all for college. If anything, all the teams should be done away with and make it just seventh grade and just eighth grade. To separate the seventh and eighth graders based on teams is ridiculous. Students do not get to interact; in fact, it makes the place more like a prison than it already is.

said in a statement to voters. “This has caused a major expenditure by the town to fix the damage which obviously was not part of the budget approved in March, but we had no choice but to do the repairs immediately.”

“The basic fact is that we have emergency expenditures for which we have not gotten voter approval to spend,” the statement said. “After consultation with New Hampshire Department of Revenue and our legal counsel, it has been determined that we will have to hold a special town meeting.”

“Because of all the flood damage we’ve had to spend a lot of money,” Chandler said, more than the town has. The federal government will eventually reimburse roughly 75 percent, he said, but until that happens the town has to move forward.

“Some of the reimbursement money has started to come in,” he said, “but not a lot. We need money to pay the contractors.”

“Every day in this situation counts,” Chandler said, hence the Dec. 26 meeting. The town has certain noticing rules it has to meet according to state law, and “that was the first day that was available.”

The meeting is scheduled for Monday, Dec. 26, at the town hall at 6:30 p.m., according to the statement. “There will be a secret ballot vote because it is a bond article.” A two-thirds majority is required for the bond to pass.

The situation, however, stems from more than just paying for Irene’s aftermath. The town is also in the midst of updating its records of property values, a process known as a revaluation, which has further complicated the issue.

The revaluation “was somewhat affected by Irene,” the selectmen’s statement said, “but also required an extension of time to complete the project. This has caused a delay in the tax bills from being sent out.”

The emergency expenditures of unapproved funds to fix the roads, however, would have likely delayed the tax rate anyway, the statement added.

This situation has the town in a tight spot.

“Usually by now we’d have money coming in,” Chandler said, but instead “we have no income and lots of expenses.”

“People need to know the tax bills are going to be late,” he said, before adding that they are already late.

“Therefore,” the selectmen’s statement said, “the 2011 tax rate and annual property tax bills for the town of Bartlett will most likely be issued after Jan. 1, 2012.” Taxpayers will have 30 days from the date of the bill to pay.

Town officials are unsure why the revaluation, which conducted by a private company, is taking so long.

“We keep asking,” Chandler said.

“We don’t really know.”

It was really the combination of Irene and the revaluation delay that made the special town meeting necessary, he said. “If we had not had the revaluation we probably could have come close to squeaking through. We probably would have been OK.” But between Irene and the revaluation the town is in danger of being unable to pay some of its bills. The town lined up a short-term loan in the form of a tax anticipatory note that should cover it until Jan. 31, according to Chandler, but after that the bond will become crucial.

The town will eventually be on the hook for somewhere around $200,000 to $300,000 for Irene, he said, “a significant amount of money.” The bond means the town wouldn't have to cram all of those non-reimbursed expenses into one tax year.

“I’m just hopeful people show up and vote for it,” he said. “We had the public hearing and we had a couple people. We want people to know what’s going on.”

ing across the aisle and working for bipartisan solutions.

“I’ve done it,” he said, pointing to his experience in Massachusetts, where he worked with a Democratic legislature. “We succeeded together.”

Obama talked about bringing bipartisanship to Washington in his 2008 campaign, Romney said, “and he went there and did all the wrong things.”

“He didn’t need any Republican votes,” he said, so he “didn’t reach across the aisle.”

That’s not what the country needs, Romney argued, and that’s not the attitude he would bring were he elected.

“I understand how Washington works,” he said. Even if the two parties disagree on policies, he said, they share common principles on some issues. Those shared principles formed the basis for policy both sides could support in Massachusetts, he said, and he would do the same thing at the federal level.

“Democrats love America just like Republicans,” he said. “The process can work.”

That sort of agreement will be needed to address the economic challenges the country faces, he said. Part of the economic downturn is normal, he said, part of the business cycle.

Another part is the country getting out from under the massive amount of borrowing America and its citizens did in recent decades.

But part of the blame rests at the feet of President Obama, Romney said. The president has done nothing to increase investment in America in the last three years, Romney said.

Obama pushed through a stimulus package and health-care reform with no input from Republicans.

“This president has failed,” Romney said.

Romney said his effort as president would be “to help the 90 percent of people who are in trouble.” He repeatedly cited his experience in business for why he would be more effective than either President Obama or the

rest of the GOP field to achieve that goal.

“People want someone who’s spent his life in the private sector,” he said.

Romney ran a prestigious consulting firm, an investment company and the Salt Lake City Olympic organizing committee before he entered politics.

While the former governor is leading in New Hampshire polls for the primary nomination (he has a second home in Wolfeboro), nationally GOP rival Newt Gingrich has surpassed him. But that doesn’t worry Romney: “I am still the guy,” he said. “Just wait a little while.” Other candidates have risen only to fall, he said, while he has maintained consistent popularity. As the contest moves forward and the field winnows, he said, his support will only grow. “I’m glad I’ve done well enough to get 20 or 25 percent” at this point in the race, he said.

He rejected assertions that he is hard to pin down, that his positions are somewhat transient. see ROMNEY page 10

“ I knew my hearing was not good, so I went to an audiologist. I was not satisfied with all the talk and prices and just said “oh well”. Then I went to Dale Lalone; a real nice person and very understanding. He fitted me with an aid that was right for me.

What a pleasure to hear so much better, go out with friends and not pretend to have heard the conversation and sometimes smile at the wrong time. I am with it again.”

ROMNEY from page 9

“My positions today are the same positions I had four years ago (the first time he ran for the GOP presidential nomination),” he said. Since his first campaign in the early 1990s, he said, his mind has changed on some things, but if it hadn’t “you’d be considered stubborn.”

“You want someone who has demonstrated the capacity to lead,” he said.

“I like gathering a lot of input, I like gathering a lot of data.”

Like everyone else, he said, “I make mistakes. I learn from them.”

“You say what you believe,” he said, “and let people say what they want.”

All his positions are laid out in his book, he said, “No Apology, The Case for American Greatness.”

And while he has stayed constant, he said, the Republican field has shifted around him. In 2008 he was considered a conservative Republican to the right of Sen. John McCain and Rudy Giuliani. In 2012, however, candidates like Sen. Rick Santorum and Michele Bachmann have him looking like the moderate.

The foundation for his political positions are often rooted in the same Judea-Christian principles of his more conservative rivals, he said, but when it comes to policy questions, “I don’t turn to the bible for my justification.”

His position against same-sex marriage, for example, he said, comes from what he thinks is best for the country, “out of a desire to protect the society and preserve the civilization,” not from religious conviction. Policy issues should not be decided based on religion, he said.

All people, both those of faith and those without it, can get behind the

“You want someone who has demonstrated the capacity to lead.” inalienable rights to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness laid out in the Declaration of Independence, he said. “Those are foundational principles.”

In some cases, however, Romney’s policies have become hindrances to his campaign, like the health-care reform he oversaw as Massachusetts governor.

“Last time it was seen as an asset,” he said, referring to the 2008 campaign, but since President Obama modeled some of his health-care plan after the Massachusetts law the asset has become a liability. “Anything he touches, that’s the kiss of death.”

But the program works well in Massachusetts, he said. “It helps thousands and thousands of people.” If helping those people costs him the presidency, he said, it was worth it.

And there are fundamental differences between the Obama plan and what Massachusetts did, he said.

Massachusetts focused on only the uninsured, while “his plan takes over health care for everybody.”

Romney said he would repeal the federal program if elected and give the states the ability to deal with their uninsured in their own way.

Romney is working hard for the chance to make those changes, campaigning around the state and around the country.

“The people of New Hampshire want to see that you’re willing to earn it,” he said.

a risk buying their business. "Most new businesses don't make it," said Romney. "But fortunately some do and those who do and succeed marvelously, as Kim and Jim have, they are able to employ not just themselves but other people, and those of us who benefit from their experience and risk-taking are lifted at the same time."

Romney was pleased to hear that Madison Lumber Mill has been able to "keep up" with federal regulations put in place since Barack Obama became president. The president is trying to make the U.S. more like Europe by imposing heavier regulations, Romney alleged.

"They want to change America from a merit society, an opportunity nation,

into an entitlement nation where they take from some to give to others," said Romney. "There's no system like that that's ever worked."

Obama's system isn't working now, said Romney, adding there are 26 million Americans who are unemployed or underemployed. The median income has dropped by 10 percent in the last four years while costs of food, fuel and health care have gone up.

Romney pledged to get rid of burdensome regulations and promote jobs.

After explaining a bit about his priorities, Romney took questions from the audience.

One woman, a former registered nurse, said most of the reason she retired was the daunting amount of paperwork she had to deal with. see MILL page 12

MILL from page 11

"It's getting worse and worse as the years go by," said the woman.

Romney replied that although regulation is burdening a lot of industries, some of it is necessary. For instance, some is needed to verify that nurses are qualified and current with their training. Regulation needs to be beneficial not harmful, and a president needs to know the difference, he said.

Romney said one government agency found that the cost of America's regulatory burden is greater than the revenue the government receives from income tax.

Romney said he would repeal all regulations that cost America jobs during the Obama years.

One woman asked Romney if he understood poverty and social problems. The questioner noted that Romney came from a well-off family.

"I'd like you to explain that you have some history, that you know people's problems," the woman said.

Romney replied that his church asked him to be a pastor, which is a role that rotates through the congregation.

During that time, he counseled people with financial difficulty. At his church, the pastor will give needy parishioners vouchers for food from the church.

"They can get food, clothing, other things they need for free and then we expect them to work," said Romney who is a Mormon. "What impressed me is we are all the same in the things we aspire for, but also that when people are out of work and don't feel they are contributing to the betterment of their family and their futures they get pretty depressed."

The economy is at fault for much of the unemployment in this country, said Romney. When businesses succeed, they will be able to hire more people.

Romney noted that Madison Lumber Mill found an interesting way to succeed. Mills used to dry wood in oil-fueled kilns. But now, those mills are gone. It took a multi-million dollar investment at Madison Lumber purchase kilns that run on sawdust. Now, the mill is selling its products around the world, said Romney, adding some of the mill's products were going all the way to Pakistan.

"I care about business because I do care about people," said Romney.

Romney told another questioner that offshore drilling and shale fracking were good for job creation. Further, Romney described America as an

energy rich nation. Romney said America ought to be using its own oil, gas, coal, nuclear and renewables.

"I know that some extreme environmentalists would probably rather see us very very cold with very very few jobs," said Romney. "I want good jobs and I want to be warm in the winter."

One man asked how Romney would encourage manufacturing to come back to the United States.

Romney said the situation could be much improved by reducing the regulatory burden, lowering taxes, and adopting competitive trade and energy policies. He noted regulations went up four fold since Obama took office.

One man asked if Romney could "hit the ground running" as fast as former House Speaker Newt Gingrich, who is also running for president.

Romney replied that he disagreed with Gingrich on important issues like the "Ryan Plan" for entitlement reform.

Romney supports the Ryan Plan while Gingrich called it "right wing social engineering."

"He may hit the ground running but not in the direction I will go," said Romney of Gingrich.

Romney distinguished himself from the president on foreign policy. The president, Romney said, went around the world apologizing for the United States.

"I will not apologize for the the greatest nation on Earth," said Romney. "I also love this country."

At the mill, Romney received endorsements from State Senator Jeb Bradley (R-Wolfeboro) and Tom Thompson, son of former New Hampshire governor Meldrim Thomson, and American's for Prosperity's honorary New Hampshire chairman.

Bradley described Romney as a "turnaround specialist" who will focus on job creation and the economy.

Thomson said he urged Romney to visit a business that involves New Hampshire's forestry industry, which brings in $2 billion to the state.

"It's a big deal up north," said Thomson. "I'm here to day to endorse Governor Mitt Romney as our next president of the United States. Which individual can beat Obama in 2012? In my heart, I believe it's Mitt Romney."

Further, Thomson promised to furnish the future Romney White House with a Christmas tree from a New Hampshire certified tree farm.

"It will be cut with an ax my father had,"said Thomson. "Ax the tax."

“I hope your dreams take you... to the corners of your smiles, to the highest of your hopes, to the windows of your opportunities, and to the most special places your heart has ever known.”

A glorious life is awaiting you, 18-year-old. It’s full of great potential...just like you! We are celebrating you today!

Happy 18th Birthday Taylor!

Love, Mom, Dad, Sierra & Madison!

Harry Fowler fondly remembered If you didn’t know Harry Fowler before his memorial service, you certainly did after all the speakers opened up about this special man. Harry was a prince of a man, always ready with a joke or a hug and kiss. His family members gave us an inside look of the essence of Harry, his long wonderful life, his vivid sense of humor, his love of family, and of course, his expert knowledge of everything about fishing and woodworking and woodturning. All those beautiful bowls, spoons, back scratchers that he made for us. Over the last 20 years, I spent countless hours with Harry and Judy up at Golden Hill Farm, named from the beautiful yellow maple trees in the fall.

Harry seemed to know everyone and everything about so many subjects like Pratt and Whitney engines, or how to take care of his large and lovely orchard, or how to take apart a tractor, on which he spent hours and hours taking care of his gorgeous property. He made his own cider press and it was great fun to watch them make cider with neighbors and friends.

In the sap house stood a big vat, that he made himself, where he would cook down the sap to make the most delicious maple syrup. Did you know that it takes about 40 gallons of sap to make one gallon of syrup?

Yes, we learned so much from this man. How about all those rows of corn that he and Ralph planted and sold (or gave away) in Eaton? Who could forget his delicious raspberries or rhubarb or Brussels sprouts? His gardens got a little smaller each year, but he always planted something good.

I am so thankful and grateful for being part of the Fowler family for so long. No one can say he didn’t have a long and healthy life, but I will miss his stories so much and the opportunities to make new memories.

“Harry stories” could keep hundreds of people busy for years, and yes, he always called me “the brat.” If I called

up there to speak to my sister, he would yell out, “It’s the brat!” I loved his humor, his witty ways, his love for all his family and friends, and I will miss that forever.

This year was a banner year for Harry and what I will hold dear in my heart: 117 people attended his 95th birthday party in March and he received hundreds of cards. In the month preceding the party, which was a surprise, Harry was so astonished that everyone in town seemed to know it was his birthday…well, yes, we all got the great invitations. Harry and Judy celebrated their 20th anniversary in July. How many people get the chance to have a long and happy second marriage at the age of 75? Last fall he was still able to go to his beloved Pierce Pond to do some fishing, even if he just caught and released them.

At the Memorial Service, the church was full to capacity and probably more, as we gathered to honor the special guy he was. Rev. Mary Edes spoke about her memories of Harry, and Dana Cunningham played the piano beautifully. We were given a song to sing together at the end of the service, and I will share it here: “Simple Gifts. ‘Tis the gift to be simple, ‘tis the gift to be free, ‘tis the gift to come down where we ought to be, and when we find ourselves in the place just right, ‘twill be in the valley of love and delight. When true simplicity is gain’d, to bow and to bend we shan’t be asham’d, to turn, turn will be our delight, till by turning, turning we come ‘round right.” We love you, Harry, and we will all miss you so much. My deepest condolences to Judy and David; Cindy, Terry, Alison, Mark, and Kate; Carolyn; Tory, Tim, Jason, Ivy, Eric, Kim and those super great grandchildren.

On Wednesday, Dec. 14, make sure to come to the Eaton Community Circle’s Christmas Party, beginning at 6:00 p.m. at the Town Hall. It’s a pot luck dinner, always super delicious, and the Yankee Swap gift-giving is a riot. Let the games begin, let laughter prevail, and remember all Eaton Folk are part of the ECC. Be there!

This Sunday, Dec. 18, will be the last Sunday service of the year at our Little White Church.

Rev. Mary Edes, Joanna Wiley will join Dana Cunningham for a beautiful, holiday celebration of our third Sunday hour as we finish the calendar year together. Come join us to celebrate in one of the loveliest places on earth. see EATON page 16

Scavenger hunt and chili dinner Dec. 28

Congratulations to Freedom’s Robert Bittner who is a student at Mount Snow Academy in Vermont.

Robert competed in the Rail Jam series at University of Massachusetts Amherst this past weekend and won. First place was a new pair of skis which seems like a perfect prize for any 18 year old. Robert is the son of Linda Bittner and grandson of Ray and Mary Williams, all of Freedom.

There will be a scavenger hunt and chili dinner on Wednesday, Dec. 28, to raise money for Kyle Kestner who will be an ambassador on a People to People Exchange in Europe this summer. The Hunt begins at 2:30 p.m. at the Freedom Village Store and will be followed by chili dinner at 4:30 p.m. at the town hall. The scavenger hunt winner will be announced during dinner along with raffle winners. Register at the Freedom Village Store by Dec. 26 or by e-mailing freedomvillagestore@gmail.com. This is a donation event. Kyle is the son of Freedom’s Jeannie Kestner.

This coming weekend will be another busy one at the Freedom Village Store with men’s night on Saturday, Dec. 17, starting at 5:30 p.m. Men, come pick up the perfect gifts for the women in your life: get there early, do your shopping, and while your presents are being wrapped, sit and enjoy the refresh-

ments and the company. There is a rumor that there might be a visit from a special holiday visitor. Stocking stuffers, gift cards and that special present can all be found at the Freedom Village Store. The store will be closing at noon on Dec. 24. Winner of last week’s 50/50 was Dick Many.

The Old Home Week Committee is busy planning Old Home Week 2012, and they are asking for your help. There are several committees that could use a volunteer for as little as one hour, or up to supporting multiple events. If you and your family have enjoyed Old Home Week events over the years, you can show your appreciation and support by being a volunteer. Consider helping at one or more of the following events; T-shirt sales, card board boat race, ping pong tournament, parade, canoe and kayak regatta, set-up, and publicity. If you want more information please call Susan Marks at 539-6013 or Sylvia Carney at 539-5799.

News from our library: Come in and see the many new titles that have recently been added to the library in all genres as well as dvd titles. The next pizza movie night will be Friday, Dec. 30 with “Kung Fu Panda 2.”

As for activities in Freedom, holiday decorations

are being set up. The month is filled with concerts and other events. The first planning meeting for the 2012 Old Home Week event was held, the Rubber Ducky race will be held on June 30. The parade and cardboard boat race will be August 4 with other events being held Aug. 3 to 12. Work on the Mill Pond firehouse has been completed. Work continues on the Village Road Fire House and Police Station with completion in January.

Freedom’s Old Home Week committee has a couple of ideas for helping with everyone’s holiday shopping list: buy one of their afghans, with pictures of Freedom’s landmarks done by Peg Scully or a blue sun catcher, also embossed with a Freedom landmark. Both items are available either from Ellie Stokes at 539-2637 or at the Freedom Village Store. The afghan comes in three colors: blue, cranberry and dark green. Funds from the sale of these items help defray the cost of Freedom’s 10-day celebration of Old Home Week.

Freedom’s Dave Dube, formerly of Lazy Susan’s Restaurant, is now the breakfast cook at Sunny Villa next to Green Mountain Furniture. You can find him there seven days a week from 6:30 to 11:30 a.m. see FREEDOM page 16

Once again I want to thank you fabulous people who put up Christmas trees on or near our lakes and ponds. It is surely a delight to drive down Route 153 at night and see Ken and Linda McKenzie’s adorable tree on Crystal Lake, Janet and Bob Bridgham’s colorful tree near the pond, Rick and Celia Wilcox’ fun tree on the dock in the water, and Linda and Burt Day’s pretty blue tree in front of their house on the water. I love them.

from 6 p.m. until midnight.

Thanks to Bob Smart for the following Smart Report: There is no ice on the lake, no snow on the open ground, no frost in the ground. The lake level is at 407. 6 (2.1 over plan) and the dam has been wide open for more than a month. Looking back over records of the last few years there has almost always been ice on Broad Bay by this time of the year. The 2008 water level was 407.9 with full ice cover; 2009 was 408.0 with skin ice; 2010 407.8 with no ice.

THE CONWAY DAILY SUN, Tuesday, December 13, 2011— Page 17

–––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– OBITUARIES ––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––

Clayton Richardson

Clayton Richardson, 80, of Stanley Hill Road in East Fryeburg, Maine, passed away suddenly on Thursday, Dec. 8, 2011 at Bridgton Hospital in Bridgton, Maine.

He was born on Oct. 29, 1931 in East Fryeburg, a son of Warren and Laura “Hill” Richardson. He lived in East Fryeburg his entire life. He attended the one room school house in East Fryeburg and graduated from Fryeburg Academy in 1950. He married Dorothy Bennett in 1951 and they had 46 happy years together before she passed in 1997.

Clayt was always working, farming, cutting wood, and puttering around. He was always busy. He spent most of his on the clock years at Fred. P. Saunder’s Dowel Mill in Bridgton, Maine. He retired from the mill in 1993 to care for his beloved wife who was battling cancer.

Clayt enjoyed riding his four-wheeler and snow machines. The daily four-wheeler ride to the beaver dam with his brother David had kept him busy for years. He was a member of Denmark Dragger Snowmobile Club and helped build and maintain trails and bridges. There is a special bridge on a snowmobile trail in Denmark named in his honor.

He enjoyed going on snow machine rides with his friend Trucker and grandson Matt. He always said that he got to see a lot of places that he wouldn’t have been able to see without his snow machine.

All of his adult life Clayt enjoyed keeping a daily journal in which he wrote all about the weather and what was going on in his life and his families’ daily lives. He will be sadly missed by all.

He is predeceased by his parents, his wife, three bothers, Donald, Francis, and Harold all from Fryeburg; and by a grandson Matthew Young, of Albany, Vt. He is survived by three daughters, Gloria Pingree and husband, Tom, of Denmark, Maine; Sharon Pendexter and husband, Harry, of East Conway; Jane Warren and partner, Steven, of Brownfield; and his stepson, Howard Perkins and wife, Beverly, of East Fryeburg; his brother, David Richardson and wife, Martha, of East Fryeburg; his sister, Hilda Barker and husband, Richard, of South Casco; six grandchildren; 12 great grandchildren; one great great grandchild; and many nieces and nephews.

Visiting hours will be held, Friday, Dec. 16, from 6 to 8 p.m. at Wood Funeral Home at 9 Warren Street in Fryeburg. A private graveside service will be held at the convenience of the family. In lieu of flowers memorial contributions may be made in his memory to The Denmark Draggers Snowmobile Club, P.O. Box 103, Denmark, ME, 04022. Arrangements are with Wood Funeral Home in Fryeburg. Online condolences may be expressed to the family at www. woodfuneralhome.org.

Hi! My name is Hope

Hope is a beautiful DLH calico that came to the shelter after she was dropped off at Bridgton Vet with a badly fractured leg.

The leg had to be removed and she is learning to get around on only 3 legs and so far seems to be doing well. We are not sure how she gets along with other cats and until she is completely healed we will not put her in that situation. We recommend any home she is adopted into would keep her indoors only.

Adoption Fee: Cats $80; Dogs $150. All animals are spayed/neutered, have shots to date & have been heartworm tested. For more information, call 207-935-4358, or send a note to hhas@fairpoint.net Visit our website at: harvesthills.org

DAILY CROSSWORD TRIBUNE MEDIA SERVICES

by Lynn Johnston

DILBERT

by Scott Adams

By Holiday Mathis SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). As a realistic person, you understand how absolutely unrealistic it is to want things to be perfect. And who needs the added pressure? You’ll play it loose, and everyone will be comfortable and happy.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21).

You don’t feel sorry for yourself, and you don’t like it when others throw themselves a pity party, either. Through your actions, you will train another person to take charge, be assertive and be responsible.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19).

You will be, in a sense, shedding your skin. And though it’s a natural process, it still takes effort, which you gladly put in, as you are genuinely excited about the new person you are becoming.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You will learn because you can’t help but follow your curiosity and get answers.

You won’t worry about whether a subject is worthy of your interest. You will be fascinated by life.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Your memory will bring back strange bits of information. There’s a reason for these seemingly random recollections, though you may not understand it until Friday.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Dec. 13).

It’s your year to explore a new interest and simultaneously enlarge your social circle. What happens in January will fill a void in your heart that you didn’t even know existed until you experienced the joy of wholeness. With a little hard work, a lot of organization and a good team, your lifestyle will improve for the better in February. Aries and Taurus people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 40, 2, 14, 33 and 19.

Get Fuzzy

ARIES (March 21-April 19). You refuse to accept that there are limits to what you can and can’t do. You’d rather see the future as wide open. Because of this approach, more is possible for you.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Someone who needs your help might be too intimidated to ask for it. Invite questions. Your open heart will be felt, and others will dare to depend on you. Of course, you’re the one who will benefit most in the end.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Your interests will form you. To some degree, you can’t control what is attractive to you. But you can keep looking for the very best of what’s available and ask more questions. Your query could change everything.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). You see something that others do not. It’s a testament to your unique spirit. You probably won’t be ready to share your observations, but you should record them in some way for later.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Failing often and with great style is the mark of highly successful people. You do not like to fail, but you can definitely see the usefulness in it. Win or lose, you’ll help others with your positive attitude.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You won’t have to restrict yourself, because you will naturally want what is good and right for you, and you’ll be inclined to take life in moderate doses. If you’re being unduly inhibited by outside forces, you’ll rebel.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Some kinds of pain happen simply because you’ve fallen into a groove of suffering and have yet to decide that you’ve had enough of it.

SERIOUSLY OVERWEIGHT HUSBAND PRESENTS BIG ISSUES FOR WIFE

DEAR ABBY: I am 35 and my husband is 45. When we met, he weighed 375 pounds. He has now hit the 600-pound mark. I have five kids, a full-time job and go to school two nights a week. He talks about losing weight, but it’s easier to talk about than actually do. He was in a car accident that left him with back problems, and on top of that he has bad knees from sports.

The future doesn’t look promising. I know that one day he’ll be confined to bed -- I predict in the very near future -- and I will have to drop everything to take care of him. He is already dependent on me and the older kids to take care of him because he’s in pain all the time and can’t physically do anything. He doesn’t have insurance.

If I didn’t have a family to take care of, it might not be as big of an issue. This is very depressing. I am thinking of seeing a counselor. He has already told me that he won’t go. Your input would be greatly appreciated. -- WIFE OF A BIG MAN DEAR WIFE: Talk to a counselor right away. Unless you do something now, you will be unemployed and homebound with a sick husband and five dependent children. Who enabled your helpless husband to gain all the weight?

His life depends upon him being on a strict, sensible nutrition regimen. Because he has no insurance, a self-help group could be a lifesaver. Overeaters Anonymous may be able to give you some guidance and offer him emotional support.

There are chapters nationwide, as near as your phone book, or contact them online at www.oa.org.

DEAR ABBY: My boyfriend, “Frank,” and I have been together for four months. I’m 21 and he’s 31. He was married before. This is my first serious relationship.

Sometimes we get into heated arguments because he’s ready to “plan for the future” while I just want to go with the flow. He thinks I don’t take our relationship seriously because I’m not ready to move in with him, get married or start a family yet. When I explain that I would love for all of that to happen -- eventually -- Frank says it seems more like a friendship than a relationship. That really hurts me, because I’m trying.

These arguments over my lack of “seriousness” are killing me. They started two months into the relationship. I feel pressured. If the pressure continues, I’m feeling like we may not be able to be together. I need your advice, please. -- DOING THE BEST I CAN IN BOSTON DEAR DOING THE BEST YOU CAN: You are a smart young woman with excellent instincts. Trust them. You feel pressured because you ARE being pressured. In fact, you’re being given the full-court press.

Pushing for a quick involvement/commitment is one of the warning signs of an abuser. Ask yourself, What’s the rush? Find out the reasons why his marriage failed. Stand your ground and don’t allow yourself to be pushed into anything you are not completely comfortable with. And if it persists, end the relationship.

DEAR ABBY: I’m seeing a counselor for my anxiety, and it bothers me that he yawns throughout each consultation. He sometimes apologizes for it, though. Is this inappropriate behavior for a therapist? -- MIFFED IN NEW JERSEY DEAR MIFFED: Unless your counselor is starved for oxygen or burning the candle at both ends, yes, it is. And because it is distracting to you during your sessions, tell him if it doesn’t stop, you will have to find another counselor.

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