SEATTLE (NY Times) — Three months before he killed himself, Kurt Cobain spoke of his band’s breakthrough single at a concert here that turned out to be one of Nirvana’s final performances in the United States. “This song made Seattle the most livable city in America,” Cobain told the audience before ripping into the opening of “Smells Like Teen Spirit.” Now, 20 years after Nirvana soared from obscurity to superstardom and the Seattle scene was anointed as rock relevant, a new exhibition, a film and a tribute concert planned for the anniversary make it clear how different things really are here now. Seattle has become even more livable since Cobain’s dry declaration, way back in January 1994. The city still rocks, and its rockers still ache, but more gently now. A nonprofit group called the Vera Project, based in Seattle Center, now teaches teenagers how to do everything from silkscreening band T-shirts to working in sound studios. (It also offers “Punk Rock Yoga” classes.) Many of the newer pop performers associated with Seattle — Fleet Foxes, the Head and the Heart, Macklemore and Shabazz Palaces among them — are more diverse, offering art rap and “beard rock,” and they feel far less confrontational, at least overtly.

Euro ministers are stalled as Geithner calls for action
Expert’s testimony on race led to stay of execution
––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– WORLD/NATION–––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––
WROCLAW, POLAND (NY Times) — Once again disappointing investors looking for European leaders to end their bickering over a rescue plan for the euro zone, finance ministers failed Friday to find common ground. They also found themselves at odds with the U.S. Treasury secretary, Timothy F. Geithner, who, after his highly unusual attendance at a meeting of
top European officials, warned them that a lack of decisive action could leave “the fate of Europe” to outsiders. The first of two days of talks in Poland left the European finance ministers no closer to overcoming crucial hurdles holding up their bailout plan for Greece. And it highlighted trans-Atlantic differences over the best ways to revive growth in developed economies and
restore stability to the financial markets. Geithner suggested increasing the firepower of the euro zone’s bailout fund to help protect banks potentially vulnerable to a default by Greece and other deeply indebted countries, but did not appear to convince European ministers. Conversely, Geithner opposed a European proposal for a financial transaction tax, the officials said.
Palestinians will seek full U.N. status, abbas says
JERUSALEM (NY Times) — The Palestinian president announced Friday that he would seek membership for a Palestinian state at the United Nations Security Council next week, a move strongly opposed by Israel and the United States that adds significant tension to one of the most intractable conflicts in the Middle East. The move by the president, Mahmoud Abbas, constitutes a new Palestinian strategy 20 years after the start of peace negotiations with Israel, which have failed to produce an agreement. It confirmed an approach that frustrated Palestinian officials have been moving toward

for months. American, Israeli and European diplomats have struggled to dissuade Abbas and his aides from taking such a step, and his decision to proceed anyway represents what could become a foreign policy debacle for the Obama administration. “We need to have full membership at the U.N.,” Abbas said in his announcement during a speech at his headquarters in Ramallah in the Israeli-occupied West Bank, broadcast live on Al Jazeera and other outlets. “We need a state, a seat at the United Nations.”
HOUSTON (NY Times) — In May 1997, a psychologist took the stand in a courtroom during the sentencing hearing of Duane Buck, a black man found guilty of killing his ex-girlfriend and her friend. The psychologist, Walter Quijano, had been called by the defense, and he testified that he did not believe Mr. Buck would be dangerous in the future. But on cross-examination, the prosecutor asked Quijano more detailed questions about the factors used to determine whether Buck might be a danger later in life. “You have determined that the sex factor, that a male is more violent than a female because that’s just the way it is, and that the race factor, black, increases the future dangerousness for various complicated reasons,” the prosecutor asked Quijano. “Is that correct?” “Yes,” the psychologist replied. That statement, and how it was handled by prosecutors in the Harris County District Attorney’s Office, helped spare Buck from the death chamber on Thursday.

Crews repair the tracks that were undermined by Irene flooding. (COURTESY PHOTO)
Conway Scenic Railroad gets tracks repaired in time for Railfans' Weekend BY TOM EASTMAN THE CONWAY DAILY SUN
CONWAY — “I've been working on the railroad” has been the theme song for track crew workers for the Conway Scenic Railroad in the weeks following Tropical Storm Irene's devastating floods. The estimated $500,000 in repair work has allowed the local tourist railroad to be able to say that it expects to have all of its runs in operation for this weekend's annual Railfans' Day, Saturday and Sunday, Sept. 17-18. “We made it through Crawford [Notch] today, finishing the crib work — so we are now completely open on all of our runs as of 1:30 pm. today,” said Conway Scenic president Russ Seybold Friday afternoon. He said crews have been working 12-hour days, seven days a week, since the flood damage of Aug. 28. In addition to Conway Scenic Railroad crews, Seybold said he hired Gordon T. Burke and Sons as the gen-
eral contractor. Also involved have been crews from A.J. Coleman and Son, which has provided truckloads of gravel, and the state Department of Transportation's bridge crews, the state Bureau of Rails and Transit's Brian Lombard, Maine Track Maintenance and TEC Engineering of South Portland. “Everyone has been phenomenal. I cannot emphasize their efforts enough,” said Seybold. The Conway Scenic Railroad since 1995 has leased the Mountain Division tracks from the state of New Hampshire. Seybold said the railroad will seek to be reimbursed through the state by FEMA, the Federal Emergency Management Agency. “I pay the contractors first, and then we go through the state to get reimbursed, and they are reimbursed by FEMA, is how it works,” said Seybold. Seybold said the worst-hit area was

at Mile Post 64 across from the Glen Ellis Campground in Glen. “The Saco came over the embankment there, and ripped out the track. Repairing that took the most time,” said Seybold. “I can tell you: at one point, we had 22 trucks on the road hauling stone. This was all a monumental task.” Other areas that were tough was behind River Run and at Fourth Iron, according to Susan Logan, marketing director at the 1974-founded Conway Scenic. The Conway line was in operation the day after the storm, but the Bartlett Valley train couldn’t operate for about 10 days. The Notch Train is resuming service on Saturday, just in time for Railfans’ Weekend. “Due to track damage from Irene, the past few weeks have been very challenging for us,” said Logan, “and the cleanup and repair work that’s been done in a very short time is nothing short of amazing.” “There were sections that make the tracks look like suspension bridges,” she said. “It [the railroad bed] was washed out underneath in places.” The state Department of Transportation was able to reopen flood-damaged Route 302 from Bartlett through Crawford Notch Friday afternoon, two weeks ahead of schedule. *** Railfans’ Weekend schedule Conway Scenic Railroad's 37th Railfans’ Weekend will feature frequent departures of passenger trains and mixed passenger/freight trains, powered by vintage diesel engines and its popular steam locomotive No. 7470.

other round-trip excursions will be offered throughout the weekend to Hazens' switch in Whitefield, Sawyer River in Hart’s Location, Crawford Notch, and Redstone. Several of these departures will include unique “photo run-by” opportunities, so enthusiasts are encouraged to bring their cameras. Run-bys are scheduled along the scenic former Boston and Maine branch line south of North Conway, and along the former Maine Central Mountain subdivision line from Mountain Junction in Intervale to Twin Mountain and beyond. Photo run-bys will also be held at isolated locations along both the Crawford Notch line and Conway branch. The event will feature an outdoor Railroadiana flea market, displays of special equipment, collectors’ displays, a turn-of-the-last century operating turntable, motorcars, as well as the chance to try an old-fashioned hand car and rail velocipede, a threewheel, human-powered vehicle created in the Victorian age, also known as a “boneshaker.” The North Conway Model Railroad Club display will be open for viewing both days and is free to the public. Housed in the railroad’s historic freight house, the club maintains an exhibit that’s the envy of many other clubs around the country. The complexity and details of its displays give visitors a look at what the area looked like 100 years ago. There also will be a Saturday evening photo session in the rail yard, coordinated by professional photographers. The public is invited to participate.

Man accused of sexually assaulting woman on Shaw’s Way CONWAY — A local man is facing sexual assault charges for allegedly attacking a woman in the middle of the day last Saturday on Shaw’s Way in North Conway. Thomas Dunn, 39, of 461 Eaton Road in Conway, was arraigned in Conway’s Third Circuit Court, district division, on Monday on a charge of aggravated felonious sexual assault. He was sent to the county jail after he couldn’t come up with bail, which the judge set at $50,000 cash or $25,000 bond. The incident that led to Dunn’s arrest occurred shortly before 2:38 p.m. on Saturday. That’s when a call came into police requesting help at the CVS pharmacy in North Conway. When officers arrived they found a woman, “very emotional” according to
documents filed with the court, “the top of her drawstring pants were ripped.” According to documents, the 34-yearold woman told officers Dunn rode over to her on his bicycle, ripped the top of her pants and sexuallly assaulted her. Dunn then took off on his bicycle, the woman told police. He was apprehended a short time later, at 2:56 p.m, in the Wal-Mart parking lot. According to a police statement, Dunn and the woman knew each other before this incident. Dunn has had several other run-ins with the Conway police, a spokesperson said on Tuesday, including criminal threatening and stalking complaints made by someone other than his accuser this time. The most recent encounter was a resisting arrest complaint.

DIGEST OF STORIES IN THE SUN THIS WEEK
Saturday, Sept. 10 * Most Americans watched on television 10 years ago as planes crashed into New York City, Washington D.C. and a field in Pennsylvania. But for countless others, 9/11 didn't unfold over the airwaves. It invaded their neighborhoods, blasted into their work day, crashed into their lives and stole their friends. * Two part-time Freedom residents were working in the Pentagon on 9/11, when a hijacked plane crashed into the building. * A Wolfeboro police officer, and former Army intelligence officers, says the war on terror is far from over. * PFC Steven Olson doesn't talk much about the medals he earned fighting in Afghanistan, but his grandmother will. "A two-star general pinned him twice," says Dorothy Hatfield, of Fryeburg. "I'm very proud of him." * In the wake of 9/11, dogs were not only used in search and rescue, but therapy dogs were brought in to help people deal with their grief.
Tele-Talk Would you support accepting a federal grant, and committing to an additional year of salary and benefits, for a new police officer? Conway selectmen will seek permission from N.H. Superior Court to hold a special town meeting to vote whether to accept a $241,000 federal grant to hire a new police officer. The grant would pay salary and benefits for three years, with the stipulation that the town cover a fourth year. A rule passed by voters in 2002 restricts town departments from accepting grants that will have a future cost attached, unless voters give the OK. Police say they are short-staffed, and neither they nor selectmen want the grant opportunity to slip away. Selectmen voted unanimously Tuesday to pursue a special town meeting. This week’s Tele-Talk: Would you support accepting a federal grant, and committing to an additional year of salary and benefits, for a new police officer?

Wednesday, Sept. 14 * The Redstone Rocket, Jeff Locke, launches his Major League career for the Pittsburgh Pirates, pitching five impressive innings against the Florida Marlins. * Officials are urging residents hit by Tropical Storm Irene to come into the disaster recovery center at the Tech Village right away, even if they think they don't need assistance or are ineligible. see DIGEST page 10

NATIONAL PERSPECTIVE
The Crisis This Time TAMPA, Fla. — So the Republicans are fighting about Social Security and the Democrats are exulting over it. This is news? Ho hum. This has been happening, on and off, for three-quarters of a century. During a good deal of that time, Republicans have railed against Social Security and risked voter disapproval while Democrats have twisted their rivals' worries and words out of context. Social Security may be a good program, it may be good politics, but almost never since Franklin D. Roosevelt signed the Social Security bill into law in 1935 has it prompted a good debate. It's not doing so this year, when, more than ever, we need a good debate on Social Security, which today supports about 54 million people. Here's a simple explanation why: There soon will be too few workers supporting too many beneficiaries for a pay-as-you-go system like Social Security to survive without dramatic change. The truth is that Social Security was approved 76 years ago with bipartisan support, with 81 Republicans in the House supporting the legislation along with 16 Republicans in the Senate. The 15 Democrats who opposed the bill in the House were matched exactly by 15 Republicans. This was as bipartisan a bill as there has been on a controversial matter in history, unless of course you want to look at the Medicare Act vote exactly 30 years later. Seventy House Republicans voted for that cornerstone of Lyndon B. Johnson's Great Society. Even so, Gov. Alf Landon of Kansas, the GOP's presidential nominee a year after Social Security was passed, expressed real doubts about Social Security, beginning with a campaign speech called "I Will Not Promise the Moon" in which he said the program was "unjust, unworkable, stupidly drafted and wastefully financed." He lost every state but Maine and Vermont. For the two decades that followed Landon's defeat in 1936, Republicans were chary of attacking Social Security. Thirteen days after taking his oath of office, President Dwight D. Eisenhower delivered his first State of the Union message to Congress and, when discussing the need for greater effectiveness of government programs, he said, "The provisions of the old-age and survivors insurance law should promptly be extended to cover millions of citizens who have been left out of the Social Security system." Later, in a remarkable letter Eisenhower wrote to his brother, Edgar, on Nov. 8, 1954, he said that if any party toyed with abolishing Social Security program, "you would not hear of that party again in our political history." In this letter, a revealing discourse on the Eisenhower political philosophy to a brother critical of some of the administration's actions, the president worried that "this country is following a dangerous trend when it permits too great a degree of centralization of governmental functions." Then he said of those who would eliminate Social Security: "There is a tiny splinter group, of course, that believes you can do these things. Their number is negligible and they are stupid." Precisely a decade later, GOP nominee Barry Goldwater wondered out loud about abolishing Social Security. The notion seemed tailor-made for the Democrats' strategy, which was to portray the Arizonan as a radical, even a crackpot. Goldwater's rhetoric was extreme but his notion, that the system
603-730-2521 rockybranchbuilders@gmail.com PO Box 693 Glen, NH 03838
ought to be voluntary, was echoed in the famous 1964 televised preelection speech that made Ronald Reagan a national political figure and later was adopted by the George W. Bush administration. Republicans stumbled in the Reagan years when they permitted House Speaker Thomas P. O'Neill of Massachusetts to portray them as enemies of Social Security, and thus of old people. In the 1982 election, the Republicans lost 27 seats. Last week the issue flared again in the Republican debate here, after Texas Gov. Rick Perry had suggested, not all that inaccurately, that Social Security was a "Ponzi scheme." The Mitt Romney campaign promptly distributed pamphlets in this state, where a fifth of the population is on Social Security, asking pointedly, "How can we trust anyone who wants to kill Social Security?" Perry then offered his colorful "slam dunk" guarantee to current Social Security recipients. But the issue remains how to support this program, how broadly it should be applied, how much of it should be taxed and what the government should set as the retirement age. This is no academic exercise. The greatest economic crisis facing the United States today isn't the national deficit or the trade deficit. It is the savings deficit. Some Americans may be putting away more money than they did a decade ago, but nowhere near enough. This year's Retirement Confidence Survey shows that seven Americans out of 10 believe they are not on track to save enough for retirement. That may well underestimate the reality. The Employee Benefit Research Institute found this year that large chunks of lower-income Americans may well have to work until they are 80 to have enough money to cover basic living expenses. All of which brings us back to Alf Landon — a sentence no one expected to be typed in the year 2011. But Landon's critique of Social Security included this riff: "It assumes that Americans are irresponsible. It assumes that old-age pensions are necessary because Americans lack the foresight to provide for their old age." Let's punt that question over to the sociologists. The political scientists, however, realize that in some form Social Security is here to stay. In that case, Democrats as well as Republicans are going to have to do what they don't want to do, which is to bring the system in line with both the savings crisis and the deficit crisis. The deficit-reduction plan the president released last week said not a word about Social Security. "Even discussing those options is highly unpopular with a majority of Americans," one brave American politician said in a speech exactly 15 years ago this week, "in large part because we lack leadership that is able and willing to make a clear, compelling case for such necessary, long-term action." The speaker was Sen. Nancy Landon Kassebaum, Republican of Kansas and daughter of the 1936 Republican nominee. The venue was Kansas State University and the occasion was the 107th Alf Landon Lecture.

‘Not just a passion, it’s a lifestyle’ Page 14 — THE CONWAY DAILY SUN, Saturday, September 17, 2011
BY ERIK EISELE THE CONWAY DAILY SUN
Co-worker Terry Leavitt slapped at the handrail, her feet unsteady. “You’ve got it,” I shouted over, keeping tension on the rope. “I’ve got you.” She teetered like a bowling pin, her hands fumbling against the granite searching for purchase, her eyes growing wider. “Come on,” I coaxed, “trust your feet.” Jamie Gemmiti, The Conway Daily Sun photographer, is next to me snapping photos. Instantly she was off. “I’M FALLING!” she shouted as she slid down the rock. The rope snapped to attention. Suddenly she was perched 50 feet above the ground hanging in her harness. “See?” I shouted over. “What could possibly go wrong?” She looked back at Jamie and I with a smile I’d seen before. This isn’t going to be her last day on the rock. For some the Mount Washington Valley is synonymous with climbing, and Cathedral Ledge most of all. On summer evenings locals swarm the parking lot at the base in a ritual that’s been repeated for decades. “You looking for a partner?” someone shouts leaning out their passenger side car window. “No, Sam’s supposed to meet me here,” someone else shouts back, “but you can join us if you want.” It’s a passion, one people forgo steady work and normal lives to pursue. It’s the same passion that flickered in Terry’s smile. For me it flared more than a decade ago, and it hasn’t stopped burning. Weekdays are best — after work, when most people have gone home, or early mornings, when the parking lot is still empty. That’s when you can have Cathedral to yourself. Add the threat of rain and you’re almost assured to be alone, just you and your partner on the side of a 350foot cliff. Those can be perfect days, as long as you are off before the deluge starts. And even if it rains that just means it’s time to head into the Cathedral cave, or over to the Beast Flake, or to Sundown for routes that stay dry. If it rains for days, climbers migrate to friends’ houses with indoor climbing walls in their basements, garages and barns for refuge. No matter what, climbing will happen. Many of those walls will be busy all winter long. It’s not just a passion, it’s a lifestyle. The real question, then, is not what to climb after work but what work allows you to climb. A job in the city isn’t an option — too far from the rock. And whatever you do, it has to be flexible — climbing trips often last several weeks or month. Lots of climbers work for themselves — pounding nails, roofing, doing tree work — so they can take the time to go to Alaska, Patagonia, Nepal. Others are teachers or nurses, where their work is compressed and they can take the time to go to Peru or Pakistan.

A few of us found 9 to 5 jobs — secure, but less flexible. Everything is a compromise. I can still be at the base of a route 10 minutes after I shut down my computer.
Then there are the guides, who are out there every day whether it’s 100 degrees or raining. The profession has changed over the years, with rock gyms taking over as venue for
the new generation to learn the skills that otherwise would have been taught here, but the guides make it work. Some paint in the off-season, see next page

others write or shoot photos. The guide services focus on camp groups and families for now, waiting for the time when Cathedral-style climbing swings back into vogue. That style, in a word: traditional. Cathedral is steeped in tradition. The guidebook is thicker with route history than route descriptions, a remnant from the days when climbing was more adventure than athleticism. Most locals know every word of it, referring to it as the Bible. They take pride in having climbed obscure Cathedral climbs most climbers have never even heard of, and knowing who put them up and when. Many of those early climbers are still around, keeping that history and tradition alive. The area’s heyday, the 1970s and 1980s, was an era where local climbers represented the forefront of the sport. Now, as climbing has become more popular and new cliffs are in vogue, Cathedral is often quiet. Popular climbs can be crowded on week-
ends, but there are always lots of routes free. Local climbers, however, are still at the leading edge. Just this month local Freddy Wilkinson got back from an expedition to India where he climbed the world’s second highest unclimbed peak, and Jackson’s Mark Synnott went to Chad earlier this year on a North Face expedition that tackles dozens of unclimbed rock formations. Their pictures are all through the climbing magazines, but at Cathedral they’re just F-Bomb and Scrappy. As nightfall slinks in at Cathedral, old friends and climbing partners descend. Climbers who remember the heyday sit next to those who weren’t born during it. They laugh and joke and make plans for the next adventure. Cathedral is a rare place, nestled among the mountains, and it's waiting for the next person looking for vertical adventure. There’s always room for one more. Erik Eisele, in addition to being a reporter for the Conway Daily Sun, is a climbing guide with International Mountain Climbing School.

Rock climbing is not about deathgripping a ledge while you dangle a hundred feet in the air or thinking about loved ones if you fall. Nor is it only about harnesses, ropes, anchors, or terms like “on-belay.” It’s also an exercise of letting go, of immersing yourself in the moment. As a photographer in the valley, I know well the unique nature of our rock and ice routes, and our deeprooted, quirky “grunge” climbing culture. I have photographed the fringes of routes and chatted with climbers from around the world. Many of my friends are climbers. Climbers know and love to take people climbing, but I’m afraid of heights. For years climbers have offered, and a thousand times I’ve said, “No thanks.” Then along comes Erik Eisele, taking over the vacant desk left by the last reporter. His persistence paid off, because, though I left a message, “It’s gonna rain, I’m going for a run this morning,” I found myself 100 feet above the tops of the trees, somehow standing on the mountain’s face, literally on Thin Air. Erik practically jogged the first two sections of Thin Air, the popular route up Cathedral Ledge, bringing Terry Leavitt, another friend and coworker, and I behind him. He stood on a small rock shelf, placed anchors and arranged the ropes. I was next. With my heart in my throat I hugged the ledge. I might as well have been learning to walk. “It’s got good feet,” Erik kept saying, “go ahead, you’re doing great.” I breathed deep. “I can’t see it, do you mean there?” My voice shook as I reached my foot as far as I could and groped the rock with the toes. Almost every move was like that — my heart in my throat, flexing every
muscle and lunging it to the next little bump. I squeezed the ledge so hard I could have pulled holds off and tossed them toward Cranmore. It was definitely not the way to climb. But then, in my last two or three moves, I relaxed. I became open to the possibility that Erik’s years of experience and the half-hour speech about equipment, safety and awareness might really add up to something. Our harnesses were double connected and anchors were the triple checked. At one point Terry fell and slid down a few feet, but she was totally fine. In my mind, however, I just couldn’t really trust and let go. We photographed and joked and encouraged each other all the way up to the last belay. We gazed out at new perspective of a familiar landscape. Erik pointed out spots of interest. I started to relax and feel confident even as we talked about recent accidents and how years ago harnesses didn’t include leg loops and could ride up and suffocate the wearer. Climbers — dedicated, or insane? Moments later, neither Erik or Terry saw, but I panicked. My legs buckled and all the blood drained out of my heart. I did not want to go up. It would be hundreds more feet of climbing, even more difficult than what we came up. I didn’t want to go down either — that would mean leaning back away from the ledge. My face felt cold and clammy, and I went pale. They decided we had to go down, we needed to get to work. I watched as Terry leaned back. “Keep your legs straight in front of you and sit back,” Erik said. I started to feel a little better watching how easy it was, and I knew this hour-long confrontation with my fear was soon going to be over, even if I plummeted onto the jagged rocks at the base. Erik brought the rope back up and see next page

tied me in. My heart started pounding, and so did my head. It felt the same as approaching the lip of Tuckerman Ravine. I know I’m strong enough, I think to myself, I have the right equipment. And in this case, I have the right guide and know I can do it. But I also know anything can happen. For some reason my mind forces me to confront the possibilities. When the time came, with no other
options, I decided to let go and trust the moment. I expected to rocket to the ground like a stone, but I leaned back without question. I leaned back and a rush of dread filled me. I thought about my daughter. Leaning into the rope felt like watching a movie in slow motion. As my harness tightened, however, dismay turned to delight. I was on the other side, seeing my life anew. I thought about my daughter again. “This is living!” I shouted, unable to control myself.

BY TERRY LEAVITT THE CONWAY DAILY SUN
Thin Air, Cathedral Ledge, North Conway, Thursday, 9 a.m. — I place my hands on the cool granite and begin to climb. I’d like to get to the top. I’d like to get to the point 50 feet up where my climbing companions Erik and Jamie wait, encouraging me on. I have no idea if I can do this. I love the idea of climbing, always have, so when my co-worker, Erik, suggested that he needed someone to add the beginner’s perspective to a piece on rock climbing, he didn’t have to ask me twice. Other than a brief introduction to the sport about 10 years ago for a story, this is all new. Heights don’t particularly scare me, and I didn’t really have a fear of falling. I trusted the system of ropes and harness and trusted Erik, who has been guiding for years. Still fear creeps in. For me it was more the question of will I be up to the challenge? Will I be strong enough to get there? This climb doesn’t look dangerous. It looks hard. Erik assures me I can do it. We had started the day by putting on harnesses and collecting ropes, shoes and other gear, and walking in the half mile to the base of Thin Air, the route we came to climb. At the ledge, the imposing face of Thin Air towers above. Thin Air looks and feels vertical when I’m climbing
it, but I know that it’s not. Rather than 90 degrees, it might, be say, 75 — that’s a guess. But a few degrees makes a huge difference. Erik ropes us in and I think here’s another thing I’ll have to learn if I’m going to be a climber — how to tie knots. But for now, I don’t kid myself into thinking I’ll remember it all. He teaches us the signals: the differences between “on belay,� “belay on,� “climbing,� and “climb away,� (namely which end of the rope you’re on) and we are ready to start. Erik goes first, climbing easily on the first pitch of Thin Air. I’m on belay, and even though Erik tells us that as a guide you learn that you can’t trust beginners to catch you if you fall, my eyes don’t leave him as I feed him the rope and he climbs, noticing that he doesn’t hook in to any equipment until it seems to me he is almost at the top of the 50-foot pitch, and thinking, if he falls, this rope won’t stop him from hitting the ground. This really is the scariest thing about climbing to me, the idea that someone else is dependent on me to be safe. What if I make a mistake? I do my best to pay attention to everything, making sure that the rope isn’t too slack or too tight, keeping in mind how to pull the rope down to stop it tight if I need to. I’m so intent on watching Erik and feeding him the rope that I don’t realize he’s placed the piece of equip-

it looks good to me. I’m still wondering if I’m going to have the strength to get there, and if I’m going to find the right route. I watch to see where he is placing his feet. I see about half way up that Jamie’s legs are starting to shake, but he continues on and makes it to the top, and then it’s my turn. I approach the rock wall. To me the final section of the pitch looks easy compared to the beginning. I see

In fact, I only realize this later, when I reach it and he tells me to “clean it,� (collect it) that it is his equipment.

places to put my feet, but they look tenuous, at best. Still, Jamie did this, Erik did this. I place my foot on what seems a small purchase and these amazingly sticky shoes — made just for rock climbing — hold me solid and I start up. I move from toe hold to toe hold more easily as I realize what small spots I can grip in rock climbing shoes. I’ve heard climbing compared to chess. It makes sense to me. Climbing isn’t a sport of strength or speed, so much as of thought and skill. You have to think several moves ahead and plan out a line of strategies to get to your goal. I look around a bit then reach above and to the sides with my hands and my feet and start to gain a little height. I stop, look around some more and go again. I hear Erik laughing and saying “yes,” and “that’s it.” And Jamie too is shouting words of encouragement. I wasn’t 10 feet up, though, before I said, “I was wrong. I’ve never done this before.” We talk our way through the climb. Erik tells us to not reach too high at once because that requires more muscle and will tire you sooner. I find the first half of the pitch hard, but not undo-able, and I love finding that I can. Erik’s says my foot placement is good. Women, he assures me, are often better at rock climbing than

men because they rely more on their feet to push and less on their arms and upper body strength to pull them up the wall. A few days later I would return to Thin Air to look at the wall again and try to set the details in my mind. While there I watch as a man tries to climb the same pitch in hiking boots. He’s exhausted by the work of gripping and climbing these small toe holds with shoes made for hiking rocky footpaths not climbing steep ledge. He struggles and slips and pulls himself up with his arms. I’m amazed he can do it at all. His guide tells us that until the late 1960s, when climbing shoes started to be developed, hiking boots were what people used to climb with. At that time he said, you were one of the top climbers in the country if you climb pitches rated 5.9. Today, with modern equipment, he said, he can get a beginner climbing a 5.9 pitch in a week. The second part of the pitch is easier, as I suspected. A little bit less vertical, with wider spaces to place my feet, and I soon join my friends. Clipped in to the anchor, 50 feet up, we enjoy the view to the north to Intervale, as Erik answers our questions and gives us a bit more history of rock climbing. I keep checking my harness to make sure I’m roped and clipped in. We catch our breath and decide to move on to the next pitch. Even though we will be traveling a closer
to horizontal path, the end point, another 50 feet away, looks to be about 100 feet above the ground due to the slope at the base. Erik says when we get there he can point out the spot where a friend was climbing when he took a 100-foot fall, and I think maybe we could talk about that after we’re down. This is a harder section of the route than the first. The toe holds and hand holds are smaller and less obvious. A crack runs at what I judge to be a 20-degree angle for most of the distance. Erik keeps the crack at about shoulder level as he makes his way across the pitch, placing anchors as he goes. As he did on the first pitch, Erik makes it all look easy. Again Jamie follows him before it’s my turn. Looking at the rock, I can’t see good foot placements several steps ahead, and it makes me nervous. There just aren’t the little toe holds that I had thought were barely adequate on the first pitch. What I see now seem more like dimples in the face of the cliff — slight indentations. Surely even my super sticky shoes aren’t enough to grip that. I start across, and reflexively grip the metal anchor. “I’m not supposed to do that, am I?” I ask. “Looks like you already are,” says Erik. Still, it seems like cheating, so I let go of the anchor and look for a piece of rock to hold. I start again. A few feet out I start to feel like I’m in trouble. As

INTRODUCING…
I go to place my foot I feel it slipping. I pull it back and try again ... slipping. “I’m slipping,” I say. “Trust your feet.” Erik says. “I can’t find a ... falling.” I fall, slide really, about 10 feet and the rope yanks me to a halt. Erik says that’s what the ropes are for. “That’s it. I had to test the ropes, see how they work,” I joke. “I like it better here,” I say, and I do because I can see better toe holds and hand holds here and am quickly back to where I was supposed to be. But I face the same problem. More dimples. More places to slip. “Trust your feet,” Erik says. “They will hold you.” I’m about a third of the way across. Again it gets easier up ahead, but not yet. I try again, looking for good placement for my hands and my feet. “Trust your feet, trust your feet,” is swirling in my brain. I’m almost the spot where I see it gets easier, but it’s a bit of a stretch. I start for it, I’m hesitant and feel that slipping feeling, but then I commit to it, pushing harder with every word as I say out loud: “Trust. Your. Feet.” I’m there and Erik and Jamie are both laughing triumphantly and saying “yes.” It feels great. A few more steps and I join them once again. We’re about half way up the Thin Air route, and we have to rappel down because it’s time to get to work. But I don’t want to stop.

Final learn-to-curl night Saturday BY LLOYD JONES THE CONWAY DAILY SUN
CONWAY — Forty-four beginners took to the ice at Ham Arena last Saturday night for the inaugural learnto-curl night and while there was some initial slipping and sliding, all were hooked on the sport by the end of the evening. The second scheduled learn-t- curl night is this Saturday from 5 to 8 p.m. The MWV Curling Club plans to launch an eight-week league in mid to late October and another one in January. "Things went pretty well," Pat Kittle, president of the MWV Curling Club, said. "The biggest issue we ran into Saturday was we were competing with so many other events like Mud Bowl and people just couldn't be both places at the same time. I also honestly think people are still in the tail end of summer and early fall mode and aren't thinking bout winter ice sports just yet."
Kittle said the first learnto-curl attracted people of all ages from pre-teens to wouldbe curlers in their 70s. "I don't think there was a single person who said they didn't like it," he said. "What we did hear is a number of people who said Saturday nights don't work for me. If that's the case then we may have to look at other options." The league is scheduled to run on Saturday nights. "We'll have a short session from mid to late October for eight weeks," Kittle said of the plan for the league. "I would imagine we'll do another open house and learn-to-curl nights in January before we start up another league." Curling is a sport in which players slide stones across a sheet of ice toward a target area. Two teams, each of four players, take turns sliding heavy (weighing between 38 to 44 pounds), polished granite stones, also called "rocks," across the ice curling sheet see next page

Mountains were one of the only places Ryan saw his father happy, though they had never climbed high peaks. On top of Garfield, Ryan is staggered by the view. His poetic nature likens it to the “face of God.” Atticus is seen sitting on the summit and gazing out at the view, like a “little Buddha.” Their journey in the mountains had begun, a journey that would eventually lead to the selling of Ryan’s newspaper in Newburyport and moving here. In 2005, they completed the 48 4,000 Footers of the White Mountains, and that winter, began winter hiking. In 2007, in response to a close friend dying of cancer, they attempted to climb all 48 4,000 footers in the 90 days of winter twice (96 peaks). Each peak was dedicated to a cancer patient, either living or gone, and the money donated would go to the Jimmy Fund and Dana Farber Cancer Institute. On each peak, Ryan would recite the name and say a prayer for the person. They reached 82 peaks that winter. The next winter, after some scary health issues with Atticus that were totally resolved by caring doctors, Ryan decided to attempt the same 96 peaks, with the funds raised going to the Angell Animal Hospital in Boston, where Atticus was treated. It was a record snow winter, with 250 inches recorded in the mountains. Tom and Atticus reached 66 peaks. These winters were life changing events in their lives. Through his wonderful descriptions, Ryan weaves in his relationships with others — from Atticus, to friends in Newburyport, to siblings, and his father. On the actual hikes, he followed Atticus, not the other way around (except when deep snow required packing down for the little dog). Atticus was always 20 or 30 feet ahead, and constantly turning to look back to see if Ryan was ok. On storm days in gale winds, Atticus went “under” the wind. In late 2008, at the John F. Kennedy Center in Boston, Ryan received the Human Hero Award from the Massachusetts Society for the Prevention of Cruelty
to Animals, at their Angell Hall of Fame dinner. Of course, he immediately transferred the designation of hero to Atticus. One of the tools Ryan uses very effectively in his writing, and which I enjoyed, was the liberal use of quotes from 19th and 20th century transcendental and spiritual writers, scientists and poets. If Ryan’s own great descriptions got you most of the way there, these quotes got you the rest of the way. In today’s world, it is refreshing to read someone who still has faith in that timeless way of seeing. Einstein, one of those he quoted, may have paved the way for quantum physics, but he certainly didn’t like the modern chaos that it eventually wrought. He preferred writing down thoughts like this: “The most beautiful emotion we can experience is the mystical. It is the power of all true art and science. To whom this emotion is stranger, who can no longer wonder and stand in rapt awe, is as good as dead.” Tom and Atticus, as you will see by reading their book, are alive.

Country Ecology: Nannyberry and witherod Page 26 — THE CONWAY DAILY SUN, Saturday, September 17, 2011
Both common viburnums widespread to this area with the common name "Wild Raisin" are doing well this year. Perhaps it is a good fruiting year all around. Both shrubs look similar to each other but I rarely find them in the same location. I definitely know that nannyberry is a wet site indicator and is rarely found outside rich, damp ground. Witherod seems to be found in drier areas while nannyberry is always more of a wet, swampy ground shrub. Witherod, Viburnum casinoides, is a slender, erect shrub up to 15 feet high that grows in clearings, swamps, moist thickets and also along lakes and stream banks, and other lowlands. It looks good along stone walls embracing an open field. The opposite leaves vary on the same bush as to the small obscure teeth they have, to having only wavy margins which look rubbery to me. The oval leaves appear thick and

up, it does look like an old raisin. The shoreline mix of native shrubs of viburnums, dogwoods, and vacciniums serves as a last filter of nutrients moving towards the lake. As they crave sunlight and can anchor themselves in the thin, rocky shores of New Hampshire, these bushes keep our lakes and ponds clean for both swimming and aquatic life. Nannyberry can be bought at nurseries as a collected plant. Viburnum lentago differs from witherod by having finely and evenly toothed leaves which abruptly come to a point, which then cutely turns over to one side there. This is a strong field mark for identification. The tall viburnum's flowers can be very showy in June and literally dominate a roadside or woods border where water often sits. The fragrant white flowers are in clusters two to five inches across. Each tiny see next page

AFTERMATH from page 22
flower has five spreading white petals, five white stamens with golden yellow tips, and a green ovary in the center. Nannyberry is one of the largest viburnums, growing up to 20 to 25 tall in open sites. Dense stands can occur under optimal conditions; a hedgerow can be observed along Route 25 in Tamworth. A hardy plant, it is often planted for streambank stabilization. Nannyberry can spread extensively by root suckering; a huge clump can form a common root system from just a few initial plants. You would want to utilize this fact, and plant this species against a backdrop of tall trees with its dense, oval crowns the way you would accomplish such middleground landscaping with mulberry or flowering dogwoods possessing the same height characteristics. These two shrubs provide valuable food for wildlife over a long period of time because they are able to maintain their position during successional changes in the forest due to their high degree of shade tolerance. You might be surprised where you find them; they are more widespread than one might suspect. They can be spindly in appearance when first discovered. Release them whenever you can and allow songbirds to feed on their fruits in the openings you create. They just need sunshine to produce abundant crops. Nannyberry or sheepberry supposedly obtained its name from being fed to goats as fodder. I don’t know why someone would choose such as preferential forage, and I also still do not know where withered got its name from.
In addition to lightening and darkening, the ability to produce various mottled patterns has been ascribed to stream-living trout...I observed this type of response of pattern to background in many brown trout, but never in rainbow trout...” Some may doubt the validly of any study done in California in the 1960s involving changing colors, however I did find another study that reaffirmed Jenkins observations. In a study done in 1984, entitled “Changes in pituitary and plasma levels of MSH in teleosts during physiological color change” by B. I. Baker, J. F. Wilson and T. J. Bowley, “immunoreactive alpha MSH was measured in the plasma of eels, trout, and flounder, following different periods of adaptation to illuminated white or black backgrounds. In both eels and trout, plasma hormone titres changed rapidly in response to the background color.” The flounder did not do as well; apparently it did not have sufficient MSH, what ever that is. Neither study mentions Brook Trout. However, I will concede that they are close relatives and that the trait probably is innate in all three species. The question that remains to be asked is why are the trout almost white in comparison to the water in the Saco which is quite brown? Personally I think that the jury is still out. There is no question that in the coming weeks valley anglers are going to have to learn their rivers all over again. Very few if any pool remains unchanged. In the long run most of these changes will prove to be good. There is certainly a lot of new cover, in the way of blown down trees, in the Saco and if they survive the spring floods they will prove beneficial to the trout. All of those boulders that were moved by the water will carve out new habitat for trout in short order and fishermen will go about their business as usual. See you on the river.

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

DILBERT

By Holiday Mathis that knows this is right. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). A battle to prove another person wrong is absolutely pointless. Equally pointless may be a battle to prove yourself right. The only fight worth fighting is a battle for change. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You feel like a dreamer with no direction. Practical action is what’s needed. Once you build up a body of work, your dream will gain clarity and your direction will be clear. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Broaden your horizons by talking to new people. Your circle of friends could use some fresh blood. You have excellent timing, too, and could gain access to someone who would usually be inaccessible. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Hard work, shrewd planning and an enthusiastic team do not automatically make the win. Luck must also shine on you. Today, it will, so hopefully you have the other elements firmly in place. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). In the long term, keeping secrets will be detrimental to a relationship. If you feel that something you know is going to come out eventually, it is better to bring it out now. TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Sept. 17). Your efforts to make your environment (including your home and your physical self) attractive will pay off. Many will visit you, and your home will be a place of laughter and good times. New business pans out favorably in October and June. A journey at the end of the year will be eye-opening. Pisces and Sagittarius people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 9, 35, 42, 6 and 11.
Get Fuzzy
ARIES (March 21-April 19). You’ll project a heightened version of yourself in order to make a strong impression. However, if you exaggerate or intimidate, the impression will not be a good one. There’s a fine line to walk. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You can and will handle a daunting task. Break it down into smaller steps -- increments small enough to mentally work through one at a time. Do it in your mind first, and the real life version will go better. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). There is a magic aura around the job at the top of the ladder. Consider that, in actuality, it may be the worst job of all, with the highest stress and the lowest payoff, but because it’s closer to the sun, it shimmers. CANCER (June 22-July 22). You’ll find that your emotions are increasingly under your control. When you change what you do, this often changes how you feel. You’ll find a combination of actions that leads to a happy mood. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). There’s a dignity about you that others can’t resist. They sense that there’s a well of self-acceptance inside you. Therefore, you have no reason to dip into another person’s supply in order to fill yourself up. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). People seem overly comfortable sharing their opinions with you. You probably prefer that they keep their ideas to themselves, especially the ones that have to do with how you should live your life. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You apply your efforts faithfully, meaning that even when there is no evidence that your hard work will pay off, you keep making the effort. There’s something inside you

Today is Saturday, Sept. 17, the 260th day of 2011. There are 105 days left in the year. Today’s Highlight in History: On Sept. 17, 1911, Calbraith P. Rodgers set off from Sheepshead Bay, N.Y., aboard a Wright biplane in an attempt to become the first flier to travel the width of the United States. (The 49-day journey required 69 stops before Rodgers arrived in Pasadena, Calif., on Nov. 5.) On this date: In 1787, the Constitution of the United States was completed and signed by a majority of delegates attending the Constitutional Convention in Philadelphia. In 1862, Union forces fought Confederate invaders in the Civil War Battle of Antietam in Maryland; more than 3,600 men were killed. In 1908, Lt. Thomas E. Selfridge of the U.S. Army Signal Corps became the first person to die in the crash of a powered aircraft, the Wright Flyer, at Fort Myer, Va., just outside Washington, D.C. In 1947, James V. Forrestal was sworn in as the first U.S. Secretary of Defense. In 1961, Northwest Orient Airlines Flight 706, a Lockheed Electra, crashed after takeoff from Chicago’s O’Hare International Airport, killing all 37 people on board. In 1971, citing health reasons, Supreme Court Justice Hugo Black, 85, retired. (Black, who was succeeded by Lewis F. Powell Jr., died eight days after making his announcement.) In 1978, after meeting at Camp David, Israeli Prime Minister Menachem Begin and Egyptian President Anwar Sadat signed a framework for a peace treaty. In 1991, the U.N. General Assembly opened its 46th session, welcoming new members Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, North and South Korea, the Marshall Islands and Micronesia. One year ago: A scientist and his wife who once worked at a top-secret U.S. nuclear laboratory were arrested and charged with conspiracy to help develop a nuclear weapon for Venezuela. Today’s Birthdays: Actor David Huddleston is 81. Singer LaMonte McLemore is 76. Singer Fee Waybill is 61. Actress Cassandra Peterson is 60. Comedian Rita Rudner is 58. Muppeteer Kevin Clash is 51. Singer BeBe Winans is 49. Actor Kyle Chandler is 46. Director-producer Bryan Singer is 46. Rock musician Keith Flint is 42. Actor Matthew Settle is 42. Actor Felix Solis is 40. Rock singer Anastacia is 38. Rhythmand-blues singer Marcus Sanders is 38. Actress-singer Nona Gaye is 37. Singeractor Constantine Maroulis is 36. NASCAR driver Jimmie Johnson is 36. Country singersongwriter Stephen Cochran is 32. Rock musician Chuck Comeau is 32. Actor Billy Miller is 32. Country singer Desi Wasdin is 28. Rock musician Jon Walker is 26.

For Rent-Commercial by Abigail Van Buren
STUDENT NEEDS A CRASH COURSE IN RECOGNIZING TEEN ROMEOS
DEAR ABBY: I am a high school sophomore who is usually pretty happy. I have amazing friends and a great family, and I make good grades. I have liked “Michael” for three years, and recently he has begun to show more of an interest in me. He’s polite to everyone, but my friends have noticed he pays more attention to me than to anyone else. Well, two months ago Michael suddenly started dating another girl. They’re totally addicted to each other, and I’m crushed. I am also confused, because when she isn’t around, Michael flirts with me again. I try to avoid him and not flirt back, but it seems to keep happening. I never would have expected this from such a sweet guy. What should I do? -HEARTBROKEN HIGH SCHOOLER DEAR HEARTBROKEN: Frankly, the first thing you should do is put your guard up. Then take a step backward so you can clear your head and view Michael more objectively because right now you are “smitten.” Michael appears to have a short attention span. Two months ago it was you, now it’s some other girl -- unless she isn’t around. Your sweet guy is showing signs of being a budding Romeo, so put your broken heart back together and recognize that if you want a boyfriend you can depend on, Michael isn’t the one. DEAR ABBY: We just moved into a new neighborhood and a cute little boy came to our door selling coupon books. My husband answered the door and was nice to the boy, but told him we weren’t interested in buying the book. The child hung his head and walked away slowly. As the days have gone by, we feel bad about not buying the book from him, but we didn’t need or want it. I found out he
and his family live two doors down, and it is uncomfortable as we drive by their house. They never wave or acknowledge us, nor have they ever come down to introduce themselves or say hello. Should we apologize to our neighbors for making their son feel bad, or should we just let it go? -- ASHAMED IN HOUSTON DEAR ASHAMED: I see no reason for you to apologize for not buying the coupon book. The books are not helpful for everyone. By offering them for sale, the boy is getting sales and life experience, and learning that when someone refuses an offer, the “rejection” isn’t personal; it’s part of the process. Rather than apologize, why not go to the parents and introduce yourselves? I can’t imagine they’d be holding a grudge over something so petty. DEAR ABBY: I’m eight months pregnant with my first child. It is my boyfriend’s third child. I don’t get along with the other children’s mothers, but I want my son to have a relationship with his brother and sister. How do I go about getting this to happen? -- HOPEFUL IN ARKANSAS DEAR HOPEFUL: I applaud you for wanting your son to have a relationship with his half-siblings. Family is important, and when the children are older, it could be beneficial for them. A way to establish a kinship with the other mothers might be to remind them that, in a sense, you’re all members of the same “club.” Considering their former boyfriend’s history, membership may continue to expand, so it’s in everyone’s interest to stick together.

Ossipee church members bringing church to the community on Oct. 2
OSSIPEE — On Sunday, Oct. 2, from 8:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m., the people of the First Congregational Church of Ossipee will not be attending their usual worship services. Instead, they will be going out into communities in the Osspiee area to be the church, with the intent of rendering help, showing kindness and reflecting God’s love for all people. Many projects have been lined up, including: • Gently used winter clothing give-away for all ages: If you are in need of warm clothing, please come. • Free unseasoned firewood, all split: If you are in need of firewood to heat your home, please take advantage of this. Limit is one pickup load (about a half a cord) per family, while supply lasts.
If you do not have the means to pick up the wood yourself, call the church office (539-6003) ahead of time for free delivery, but please, to the immediate Ossipee area only. • Card ministry: One of the projects that will take place in the church building will involve lots of people constructing unique, cheery and up-lifting greeting cards to be sent to nursing home residents, shut-ins, prisoners, etc., to show these people they are not forgotten and that we care about them and so does a loving God. • Free (no-donation) car wash: If your car’s dirty, stop by and get it washed. • Café project: There will be free coffee and pastries offered all morning at “the Café,” the

If you would like to lend a hand to any of these projects, call the church office (539-6003). If you plan to take advantage of the help being offered on the church property, there will be people available that Sunday morning (Oct. 2) to point you in the right direction.

Contra dances begin today at Tin Mountain
The selectmen have decided to change their meeting time from 3 p.m. on Wednesday to 3:30 p.m. Please take note of the new beginning hour. To see what else was discussed at the meeting go to www.albanynh.org. The town office will be closed Sept. 22 as Kathy Vizard and Mary Leavitt will be attending a workshop. As many may know, Jack Rose chairs the advisory council of Carroll County Transit Authority. He has also been elected to chair the new RCC for Carroll County as well. This group works in conjunction with the CCTransit to organize all modes of transportation in Carroll County. Congrats Jack! Jack and Camille Rose represented Albany at the ribbon cutting ceremony for the opening of the new Mountain View Community in Ossipee last Saturday. The event went off very well. There was a get together in the facility after the speeches were over and tours were conducted. On Tuesday, the residents moved into their new quarters within an hour and a half. With the help of the staff, family members and about 50 volunteers, the whole procedure went off without a hitch. While boxes and boxes of resident possessions were moved from their old home to their new home, they enjoyed a party in the all purpose room. Among those who helped make the time go by were my husband Stan, me and our dog, Sir Lancelot. Sir Lance is a therapy dog and used to bringing smiles to people’s faces. Stan and Lance even made the front page of part B of the Union Leader on Wednesday. Tin Mountain: Contra dancing begins today (Sept. 17) with a pot luck supper. The dancing started at 7:30 p.m. and went on until 9:30 p.m. There will be more time to enjoy this program on the third Saturday of the month until May. For more information call 447-2295. On Monday at 7 p.m. Chris Lewey of Raven Interpretive Programs will talk about the basics of identification marks, flight and behavior of migrating hawks of the northeast. Next Saturday from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. mycologist Rick Van de Poll will conduct a colorful tour of the fantastic and infamous fungi of the White Mountains. Learn to separate the edible from the poisonous, the common from the rare, as well as how to prepare mushrooms for winter consumption. Gibson Center: Jill is looking for a few artistic people to create a banner and help with the set up for the center’s display at the Fryeburg Fair. Call 256-3231 if you can help. UNH Extension: On Tuesday, Sept. 27 from 3:30 p.m. to 5 p.m. the extension and Memorial Hospital are sponsoring a workshop to help you understand your credit report. The program will be held at the hospital on the second floor conference room. Preregistration is required so call 356-5461 ext. 2384. That evening from 6:30 to 8 p.m. at the Conway Library there will be a free workshop to help you get a head start on next year’s garden by properly preparing it for this winter. On Thursday, Sept. 29, from 5 to 6:30 p.m. come to the Carroll County Farm in Ossipee and attend a free presentation on “Pigs Cost
How Much?” The topics covered will be swine care, finishing, and cost analysis and will be presented by Will DeWitt, Carroll County Farm manager and Russ Norton, extension educator, agricultural resources. Landscapers, homeowners, business people, watershed organizations, town officials and public works staff should attend a free lecture at the Conway Library on Tuesday, Oct. 4 from 1 to 5 p.m. to learn how to make a rain garden. This is a shallow infiltration basin planted with water tolerant plant species, designed to capture storm water runoff. To register or for more information, call 447-3834. Many of you may know that Lance Zack directs the Restorative Justice Center. On Sunday, from 8 to 11 a.m. the Masons are sponsoring their program with a buffet breakfast at the Mason Lodge located above the North Conway Twin Theater on Route 16 in North Conway Village. The breakfast will include an omelette station and other goodies. One hundred percent of the proceeds will go to Zack’s organization. The cost for the breakfast is between $5 and $7 per person. Bring your family and enjoy a good breakfast while helping out a worthwhile cause. The Veterans Clinic on Hobbs Street had an open house on Tuesday. Their new doctor (from Memorial Hospital) was there as were veterans and other public officials. Commissioner David Sorensen represented the commissioners at the event. This was a good time for veterans interested in enrolling in the health care program to visit the facility with its expanded services. By the time Stan and I got there at 2 p.m. the party was over. Thanks to those who have been seen cleaning up the rubbish along Route 16 and the eastern end of the Kancamagus Highway. It’s too bad that there are so many people who think disposing of their garbage along the highway is acceptable. Kathy Carrier reports that the Swift River Clean-up Project went very well last Saturday. Twenty to 25 volunteers turned up to work. There were the regulars as well as some new faces and some students from Conway Elementary. They cleaned the areas from Route 16 to beyond Bear Notch Road as well as along the Passaconaway Road. Each group did a bang up job and enjoyed a great barbecue afterwards. Thanks to all. Late Thursday afternoon I was involved in a four-car accident on Route 16. After calling 911 the Conway Police and Fire Departments arrived to help those involved. Fortunately no one was injured. In speaking with Chief Solomon of the Conway Fire Department, he told me that Brian Taylor was a big help in the recent flooding problems brought on by Hurricane Irene. Good work Brian! Christine Vizard is attending LaSalle College in Lowell, Massachusetts. Good luck Christine! The days are getting cooler and the trees are beginning to turn. Here’s hoping for a good autumn and lots of tourists. Have a great week.

A warning for those who like to postpone a little pleasure to make it just that much sweeter: the Effingham Preservation Society’s usual Saturday bake and produce sales are changing to fall hours. They will now be open from 9 a.m. to noon.There are those in town who have cause on a Saturday to drive by the Effingham Preservation Society’s building at the end of Town House road and still haven’t stopped in for a look see. On one level this is good because it means more good stuff for those who have discovered this tasty tradition; but this is a problem because it means less revenue for the group’s work. Having your reporter buy and eat more muffins every Saturday is one solution to the problem, your pulling over for the first time and actually going in and getting your own muffins is another solution: one of these has got to be the better of the two. Conservation Commission: Your reporter spent an enjoyable hour hauling a bit of brush down at the Larry Leavitt Preserve off Route 153. Well the truth is that about 20 minutes of brush work lead to 40 minutes of conversation held on the new wildlife viewing platform with members of the Conservation Commission. It was stated that thanks are in order for Mr. Steven Zalewski as the one primarily in charge of the viewing platform’s placement and construction. A fine job was done. If the pleasant time spent

Many thanks to all on the commission who made this happen and particular thanks to Mr. H. Libby for his young man’s memories of Effingham before we all got here to fill it up. Library News: A quick peak into the library found the walls freshly painted and most of the new shelves up but still devoid of books. As this is being written books are being moved and all looks well for a Saturday reopening. There are plans to make the old book room into a public meeting room with audio and visual equipment: expect fund-raising appeals. More on this as it develops. Chance to Pitch In: Saturday the 24th, meet at the municipal office around 8-ish, get an assignment, don some gloves, grab some blue bags and head out to rid our road of refuse; get fed afterwards. On an annual basis your reporter has heard more folks say that they intended to come out and do a little litter cleaning than have actually shown up. How else to say it, please make this the year and season that you actually remember to donate around four hours of your life to directly do a little something for the place you live: remember, there’s food after and it’s fun.

HOME OF THE WEEK
REAL ESTATE CORNER
An ounce of prevention BY JASON ROBIE I hope everyone is as excited as I am about our current weather trend and the amazing forecast we have for this weekend! One of the many reasons we live and work in the Mount Washington Valley, and the New England area in general, is this time of year. In the wake of the past few weeks of crazy weather in the Northeast, I wanted to spend some time talking about protecting ourselves and our livelihoods from these types of “weather incidents." I’ve never been much of an “ambulance chaser." I always preferred the scene in "Superman" where he flies around the Earth and reverses time in order to prevent the disasters from happening (and hurting Lois!). I’m sure I could find 100 notes, phrases, cliches, anecdotes and parables to enforce the “an ounce of prevention” theme. Instead I’d like to explore some of the basics of homeowner insurance and hopefully nudge you to at least review your policy and make sure you have the coverage you think you have. There are a few “standard” policy types in the United States. For the purposes of this article, I’m going to assume you have an “HO-3." This is the most common policy and provides very broad coverage for fire, lightning, storms, hail, vandalism and other “perils,” as they are called. One of the first things to check for with your policy is the associated dollar amounts. You simply want to be sure that the valuables that you own are, in fact, covered by your policy. Also, for those of us living on the coasts, it is a good idea to check for restrictions based on wind damage. Areas prone to hailstorms often require a special rider or hail damage deductible. One of the main questions that arise in the area of home insurance policies is the coverage of possessions such as jewelry, silverware, stamp collections, etc. The standard policy will provide up to $2,000 of protection. If you have more than that invested in your jewelry or other possessions, it is recommended that you add a “floater” to your policy. This adds higher limits for the valuables as well as encompassing additional risks that are not normally covered. Similar to being able to replace our vehicle if it were totally damaged, it would be good to know if we would be able to rebuild our home if it were totally destroyed in a fire. If the cost to rebuild your home is equal to or less than $150,000, you have enough coverage. The standard policy covers structural damage on a replacement cost basis. If the cost to rebuild your home is $200,000, you need to increase your policy. Keep in mind we are only talking about the structure itself. If you live on the beach or have an amazing spot of land, you are not insuring the “dirt” it sits on. Don’t use the market value of your house to establish your policy amount. Water damage is clearly a hot topic right now. As many of our friends and neighbors across New Hampshire and Vermont have tragically just learned, flood damage is not covered under the standard policy. However, if a pipe bursts and water flows all over the house, you are covered. It is obviously a good idea to have your see ROBIE page 44
New community in Madison offers flexible design options “The Brook Side” is one of two styles of home in the Banfield Hollow development.
MADISON — Banfield Hollow features 100 acres of gentle rolling fields, forests and conservation land. "This new Madison community is outpacing all current real estate trends," say listing agents Linda Walker and Brendan Battenfelder, of Badger Realty in North Conway. "Consider the value of a brand new home — new roof, new heating system, state-of-the-art building materials — and then compare the pricing." Five homes in the Banfield Hollow development are under contract this year alone. There are two styles of homes available "The Country Creek" starts at $149,900 and has two bedrooms, one bath, full unfinished attic (able to include two more bedrooms and another bath), kitchen, farmer's porch and full basement. The other style, "The Brook Side," has three bedrooms, two and a half baths, dining room, kitchen, living room with vaulted ceiling, gas fireplace, hot water heat, farmer's porch and full basement with base price of $209,900. Additional options such as mudroom, two-car garage, and see HOME page 42

plumbing and heating systems checked once in a while just to avoid the hassle, but at least you are covered. Interestingly enough, if the water “seeps” in from the basement and causes issues during a particularly wet spring, that damage is not covered. Seepage is seen as a maintenance issue and is something you should eradicate on your own. Outside the home provides a whole new slew of factors. If a neighbor slips and falls on your property and threatens to sue, believe it or not the policy will pay for the damages. It will also pay for the legal costs to defend you against the claim. The standard liability portion is $100,000. If you feel you need more, have vindictive neighbors or even just have a particularly steep driveway, I would bump it up a bit. Trees can be a beautiful highlight to any property. They provide shade, accents and brilliant beauty in the fall. However, if a tree falls during a storm and damages your roof, are you covered? The answer is yes! You are both covered for the damage to the roof and up to $500 for the removal of the tree. That said, it is always a good idea (think: ounce of prevention) to trim those dead branches and overhanging limbs before they become a problem. As a first-time homeowner, I was baffled to realize that when my golf clubs were stolen out of my truck, they were covered by my homeowner’s policy! Of course, they were so old, it was not worth putting in a claim, but the coverage was a nice surprise. Your property, anywhere in the world, is covered by your policy. And while they are certainly not your “property," your kid’s possessions are covered while they are away at college. Coverage varies on whether they are full-time, living in a dorm or living in an
apartment rented in the child’s name. Again, these are details worth checking into. Along the lines of pleasant surprises, there are policies in some states that cover food spoilage in your refrigerator, especially if the power loss is due to a break in a power line on or close to your property. Imagine your insurance company buying you a six-pack and a fresh gallon of milk! Along the lines of asking your insurance company to buy you beer it should be noted that in general, and excuse the pun, but honesty is always the best policy. In doing some research for this article, I learned that insurance companies are starting to use social media as a means of research and “checking in” on claims. I’m sure your insurance company would be very interested in the video of you running the bumps on the Ledges trail at Cranmore while they are reviewing your disability claim for back pain. “Act of God” is likely one of the more misunderstood phrases in the world of insurance. For the most part, that actual phrase is not mentioned in the standard policy we are talking about. It typically refers to natural disasters like hurricanes and tornadoes as opposed to “man-made” acts like accidents and theft. As we talked about earlier, hailstorms and floods are not always covered so it is a good idea to review your policy and know what you have. Your insurance agent is also a good resource for what you currently have and what you can add. I recommend using their skills to educate yourself on your policy. I simply can’t resist saying, “It’s better to be safe, than sorry." Jason Robie is a staff writer with Badger Realty on Main Street in North Conway. Phone number is (603) 356-5757.

Ruminating on refinance Whether it’s to lower your monthly payment, shorten the life of your loan or cash out on some of your equity, with interest rates remaining near record lows, now may be the time to consider a mortgage refinance. “Rates are at historical lows and the opportunity of them potentially falling lower is probably not worth the risk of them moving higher,” says Cory Martilla of Supreme Lending in Dallas. “As our economy improves, we can expect rates to rise. Most economic professors believe we are bounding around at the bottom of the country’s current economic condition and that, generally speaking, economic conditions will remain or improve in the next two years. If this is the case, rates will rise.” A low interest rate may be the enticement, but also examine the terms of the loan and how long you plan to remain in your home. A general rule of thumb is that the rate should be at least 1 percent less than your current interest rate, and you should expect to remain in your current home for at least four years from the time you refinance. Bill Higgins, chief lending officer with ING Direct in Philadelphia, says if you’re committed to rebooting your mortgage, examine any charges associated with the refinance carefully. If you’re going to refinance to lower your mortgage by a quarter of a percentage point but have to pay thousands in closing costs, it’s going to take a while to recoup those costs. In addition, get a referral from a friend or loved one to a mortgage loan officer/lender who has many years of experience, especially considering all the changes the mortgage industry has undergone in recent years. Gather all your important financials and make sure you’re pre-qualified by that lender based on your income, credit and assets to ensure a smooth and timely processing of your loan. © CTW Features

ASK A BROKER
Any way to avoid a sale? BY PETER G. MILLER CTW FEATURES
QUESTION: My father-in-law left the country bankrupt. He stopped making property tax and mortgage payments on his home several months prior to his departure. He notified the bank to contact my wife and I for future correspondence. We have secured a tenant who has been paying rent; the bank knows this. Including missed payments, there is now approximately $475,000 due on the loan. The house is worth about $425,000. We’re trying to avoid a short sale or foreclosure. We’d like to refinance the home in our name. We have provided the bank with information regarding our personal situation, and during phone conversations they claim they want to work with us, but they recently sent us a letter notifying us that they plan to move forward with the foreclosure. Is there anything we can do to avoid this?
ANSWER: I suspect you are not on the title nor on the mortgage, thus you have no standing. To the lender, the borrower is your father-in-law, and he simply has stopped making payments. In this situation the lender has no choice, it must foreclose. Why? Because a foreclosure auction, in theory, is supposed to raise the highest possible price for the property. If there is any money from the sale above what is owned to the lender it must be turned over to the property owner. In practice, the lender will make a bid to try and get back its investment. If no one bids higher the property will then be sold to the lender. But, weirdly, this may be good news for you. The foreclosure price will likely be substantially below the current market value, so by bidding at the auction you may be able to secure ownership to the property at discount. Don’t tell the lender of your interest — that may encourage them to make a higher bid. For specifics and strategy, speak with a local real estate attorney and line up financing to make your offer.

Refinancing while ‘underwater’ on your mortgage BY VICKIE ELMER NEW YORK TIMES
Many whose homes have fallen in value feel stranded with underwater mortgages. “A lot of people have been sitting and not doing anything,” said Cari Sweet-Kostoplis, a senior mortgage banker at Atlantic Home Loans in Lincoln Park, N.J. But they may qualify to refinance their loans through a variety of programs aimed at avoiding late or partial payments or foreclosure. “I don’t think a lot of people are aware that they have this option,” said Jef Kinney, the vice president for innovation and development of Fannie Mae, who oversees refinancing activity. Because interest rates remain low, he said, refinancing may bring their payment “to a level that is sustainable to them and put money in their pockets.” In the New York region, according to Zillow.com, some 17.1 percent of single-family homes right now are considered underwater, which means the owners owe more on the mortgage than the home is worth. (The national average of underwater properties is 28.4 percent.) Those looking to refinance through programs offered by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, the government buyers of home loans, will first need to find out who holds or services their mortgage so they can determine

whether they qualify. On their Web sites, both agencies provide links that show whether a particular address is in their portfolio. Be careful, though, if you own an apartment. “Sometimes the system doesn’t recognize the unit” number, said Matt Hackett, the underwriting manager of Equity Now, a direct mortgage lender based in New York. If your loan is owned by Fannie or Freddie, you may qualify for the Home Affordable Refinance Program, or HARP. Some 2.5 million to 3 million homeowners may be eligible to use HARP, according to government estimates — provided, among other things, that they have not been late on their payments more than once in the last 12 months. Instead of the 80 percent loan-to-home-value required in most initial mortgages today (the remaining 20 percent comes from your down payment), HARP loans offer up to 125 percent, to cover the home’s shrunken value. That means a home appraised at $500,000 could warrant a loan of up to $625,000, if the owner’s income was sufficient to repay it, instead of the maximum $400,000 in most conventional mortgages. Federal Housing Administration loans also have refinancing options. One of them, the FHA Short Refinance option, requires the lender to write down at least 10 percent of the remaining balance of the loan

and the homeowner to be current on payments, among other requirements. Still other programs are available for people who have lost their jobs. If your loan is held by a bank or has been bundled up and sold to an investment group, your options may be more limited. “It is case by case,” Hackett said. You may need to call around to locate other lenders willing to refinance underwater loans. Lenders like Atlantic Home Loans have started offering loans with lender-paid mortgage insurance, and will refinance at 95 percent of the value, SweetKostoplis said. She added that one of her clients reduced her mortgage payment by $850 a month when the rate came down to 4.5 percent from 6.7 percent. When you meet with your mortgage officer, SweetKostoplis advised, don’t hide anything in your financial situation. “The mortgage person is on your team” and wants to help you stay in your home, she said. If you need help sorting out your options, HUD lists agencies and counselors whose advice is generally free. Fannie Mae also has a broader umbrella, called Refi Plus, that can be used by people whose mortgages finance second homes and income properties. The programs have flexibility; most of them run through June 30, 2012. “Given where rates are,” Kinney said, “it would be a great time to avail themselves of these.”
