Mars rover discovery elates NASA

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

Saturday night Low: 62 Record: 39 (1987) Sunset: 7:18 p.m.

(NY Times) — It has been driving on and off for more than seven years, but now it has reached its new destination. Opportunity, a small exploratory rover that landed on Mars in 2004, has trundled to a crater called Endeavour.

The first rock it looked at has already opened a new chapter in the study of Mars, NASA scientists said Thursday. At a news conference, mission scientists giddily described that rock: full of zinc and bromine, elements that, at least for rocks on Earth, would be suggestive of geology formed with heat and water.

“This rock doesn’t look like anything else we’ve seen before” on Mars, said Steven W. Squyres, a professor of astronomy at Cornell and principal investigator of the rover mission.

The rim of Endeavour — a 14-mile-wide depression that was carved out by an impact long ago — consists of rocks from an earlier geological era that the impact lifted up from below. If the aging rover holds up, it could spend years examining the new terrain, giving NASA scientists ample grist for discovery. Scientists are most interested in a close-up look at clay deposits that have been detected from orbit by another craft — NASA’s Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter — but that Opportunity has yet to find.

With no new jobs in August, Obama abandons White House calls for action stricter air-

––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– WORLD/NATION–––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––

(NY Times) — The nation’s employers failed to add new jobs in August, a strong signal that the economy has stalled.

The dismal showing, the first time in 11 months that total payrolls did not rise, was the latest indication that the jobs recovery that began in 2010 lacked momentum. The unemployment rate for August did not budge, remaining at 9.1 percent.

As President Obama prepared to deliver a major proposal to bolster job creation next week, the report added to the pressure on the administration, on Republicans who have resisted any new stimulus spending, and on the Federal Reserve, which has been divided over the wisdom of using its limited arsenal of tools to get the economy moving again.

The White House immediately seized on the report as evidence that bold action was needed, calling the unemployment rate “unacceptably high.” Secretary of Labor Hilda L. Solis said in an interview that she hoped the president’s proposals would be embraced by Congress. “If they’re not supported, then he’s going to take it out to the public,” she said.

TRIPOLI, Libya (NY Times) — Abdel Hakim Belhaj had a wry smile about the oddity of his situation.

Yes, he said, he was detained by Malaysian officials in 2004 on arrival at the Kuala Lumpur airport, where he was subjected to extraordinary rendition on behalf of the United States, and sent to Thailand.

His pregnant wife, traveling with him, was taken away, and his child would be 6 before he saw him.

In Bangkok, Mr. Belhaj said, he was tortured for a few days by two people he said were C.I.A. agents, and then, worse, they repatriated him to Libya, where he was thrown into solitary con-

finement for six years, three of them without a shower, one without a glimpse of the sun.

Now this man is in charge of the military committee responsible for keeping order in Tripoli, and, he says, is a grateful ally of the United States and NATO. And while Belhaj concedes that he was the emir of the Libyan Islamic Fighting Group, which was deemed by the United States to be a terrorist group allied with Al Qaeda, he says he has no Islamic agenda. He says he will disband the fighters under his command, merging them into the formal military or police, once the Libyan revolution is over.

quality rules

WASHINGTON (NY Times) — The Obama administration is abandoning its plan to immediately tighten air-quality rules nationwide to reduce emissions of smog-causing chemicals after an intense lobbying campaign by industry, which said the new rule would cost billions of dollars and hundreds of thousands of jobs, officials said Friday.

The White House announcement that it was overruling the Environmental Protection Agency’s plan to adopt a stricter standard for ground-level ozone came just hours after another dismal jobs reports and in the midst of an intensifying political debate over the impact of federal regulations on job creation.

The president is planning a major address next week on new measures to stimulate employment, while Republicans in Congress and on the presidential campaign trail have criticized the administration’s environmental and health regulations, which they claim are forcing layoffs and the export of jobs.

Traffic heavy at start of Labor Day holiday CONWAY — With the start of the Labor Day weekend, traffic into New Hampshire was heavy Friday, with most roadways open after Tropical Storm Irene.

Work is still being done to repair some major roadways, and the Department of Transportation said crews would be working throughout the weekend.

Traveling north into the White Mountains, the first roadblock travelers might encounter is on the Kancamagus Highway about 12 miles from Conway. The problem area intersects with Bear Notch Road, which can take drivers to Bartlett, where damage from Irene is evident.

Those traveling from the other

direction on the Kancamagus Highway will hit a similar block about 7 miles in.

Travelers coming into the Granite State said they were pleased to see that most major roads were open.

“I had no idea,” said Marie Kennedy, of Boston. “We were just driving, saw that it was open, so we came in.”

Small business owners said their message to visitors is that they’re open and ready to handle the holiday crowds.

“We’ve had a fair amount of phone calls,” said Bob Prendergast, owner of the Cranmore Inn. “People are worried the area is hard to get to, and we’re not open -- but we are!”

State revenue ahead of budget but lags 2010 CONCORD — State revenues in August were a good-news, bad-news story, as tax receipts were ahead of the budget plan, but lagged receipts from August 2010.

The monthly Department of Administrative Services report on state revenues showed tax collections were nearly 10 percent ahead of the budget plan for the month. But they were 3 percent below what was collected last year.

In the first two months of this fiscal year, the state has taken in $5 million, or 2.7 percent, more than expected, against expected annual tax collections of $2.2 billion.

“We’re still down, still lagging from

last year,” Administrative Services Commissioner Linda Hodgdon said.

Her office will be watching September receipts closely, since that is one of the largest revenue months of each year.

Business taxes were 34 percent ahead of budget plan, up $3 million from projections. Meals and rentals tax as nearly 4 percent over the budget plan.

Tobacco taxes recovered from a slow July, coming in 8 percent ahead of expectations. The state tax was cut by 10 cents to $1.68 in the current budget.

Even with the monthly gain, tobacco sales have fallen 20 percent in the last four years, a DAS analysis shows.

Man pleads guilty to negligent homicide in fatal crash

BY JAMES A. KIMBALL THE UNION LEADER

BRENTWOOD — A driver who killed a Salem woman participating in a motorcycle charity ride pleaded guilty to causing the fatal crash along Route 111 and injuring another man who lost his left leg.

Randall Stewart, 47, pleaded guilty to negligent homicide and three other charges Friday morning in Rockingham County Superior Court just days before he was to go on trial.

Stewart drove his car into an oncom-

ing lane of Route 111 in Hampstead on June 26, 2010, plowing into a pack of motorcycles participating in the Knight Ride, an annual event honoring a Windham police officer who died of cancer.

Marceline Weaver, 49, died at the scene after being knocked from the back of her husband’s motorcycle.

Her husband Bill sat in the front row of the court gallery and dabbed away tears with a tissue alongside James Sousa, of Salem, who lost his left leg after multiple surgeries on his injuries.

Kimball resigns as chair of New Hampshire GOP

BY TIM BUCKLAND THE UNION LEADER

CONCORD — Jack Kimball resigned as chairman of the New Hampshire Republican Party on Thursday, shortly before its executive committee was to vote on whether he should continue to head the organization.

The meeting was called to order about 6:30 p.m. at the Concord Holiday Inn on North Main Street. Kimball stood up and told the group he was resigning.

“This isn’t about me,” he said. “It never has been. There is no ego here.

This party needs to be unified, and I will not stand in the way of that. So tonight, sadly, very sadly, because I’m not sure this is helping anything, I am tendering my resignation.”

The committee accepted his resignation and adjourned the meeting, which had been in session only about 20 minutes.

After the meeting, Kimball, who was elected to the post in late January and had once said he would not resign and

THE CONWAY DAILY SUN, Saturday, September 3, 2011— Page 7

vowed to fight his removal, acknowledged that he’d received “tremendous pressure” and even political “threats.”

He said he decided to resign on Tuesday.

“This was a very difficult decision,” he said. “I really, really cannot stand in the way any longer. People were looking at me as an obstacle to party unity, and I don’t want that.”

Kimball denied that he’d agreed to any deal to resign in exchange for elected party leaders — including the three GOP members of the congressional delegation — securing $200,000 from national GOP organizations for the party, part of which would be used to retire any outstanding party debt.

“No, not at all,” he said. “This really and truly, folks, was my own decision.”

Steve Duprey, a Republican National Committee member who was among those who initiated moves to remove Kimball, said he was surprised by Kimball’s resignation.

“I had no advance knowledge,” he said. “I do respect him for doing so.”

CORRECTION Daymond Steer’s column on Wall Street should have stated that presidential candidate Rick Perry said it would be almost treasonous for Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke to print more money before the election. Also, Daily Show host Jon Stewart’s first name was misspelled.

Movie Review: ‘Our Idiot Brother’ Page 8 — THE CONWAY DAILY SUN, Saturday, September 3, 2011

Reel Reviews –––––

“Our Idiot Brother” deserves to be a big comedy hit, but alas it is struggling at the box office. I blame the title, which sells the movie short. This isn't a film like “Dumb and Dumber” that is full of silly, stupid humor. Instead it is a surprisingly sweet comedy about a dysfunctional family.

The film opens with Ned (Paul Rudd), the titular idiot brother, being sent to jail for selling pot to a uniformed police officer. When he gets out, his girlfriend (Kathryn Hahn) has a new guy (T.J. Miller) and won't let him move back onto their organic farm. Even worse, she refuses to give him back his dog Willie Nelson. Ned is left with nowhere else to go but the homes of his three sisters (Zooey Deschanel, Elizabeth Banks and Emily Mortimer).

Given Rudd's appearance in the film — shaggy, long hair and beard paired with neo-hippie clothes — and the fact that he has a dog named Willie Nelson, it would be easy to think this

is going to be a stoner comedy. The film isn't, and while there are a couple pot-related jokes, at the core this comedy about family.

Ned isn't really an idiot at all. He does things that can be perceived as stupid, but in actuality his biggest fault is that he is good hearted, trusting and believes that people are, for the most part, generally good.

The film's theme seems to be that the world is full of selfish, self-involved jerks and if you're a nice, honest person then you're an idiot. The script by firsttime screenwriters David Schisgall and Evgenia Peretz concludes we're ultimately better off being like Ned. The arc of the film is fairly obvious from the beginning. All of his sisters have problems in their life that they try to ignore. When Ned's honesty brings these faults to the fore they use him as scapegoat for everything that is wrong in their lives. Of course, Ned's good nature wins everyone over in the end.

This material could be very cloying and insincere if handled poorly, but the script has enough moments in it that feel true. The sisters are fairly flatly written and one-dimensional, but they are played by some of the most charming actresses working today. The caliber of the work by Deschanel, Banks and Mortimer makes some of the more shrill, less pleasant aspects of these character more tolerable.

The tone of the film is light and low key and full of laughs both verbal and physical. Rudd is very good as Ned in a role that is slightly more laid back than his usual fare. His dry, deadpan timing is still there, but it is dialed back in a way that is sweet and lovable. You just want to give him a hug.

Rudd, who despite being one of the most reliable comic actors in such films “Anchorman,” “Knocked Up,” “The 40-Year Old Virgin,” “I Love You, Man” and “Role Models,” still isn't a household name. This could be because he is a generous performer who doesn't showboat.

Even when in the lead role, Rudd

always works as part of an ensemble cast or at the very least a duo. He's the kind of comic actor who feeds off of those around him, and when he's surrounded by equally funny and talented actors everyone just becomes better.

This holds true for “Our Idiot Brother.” This cast works extremely well together. Rashida Jones as Deschanel's girlfriend is a standout and easily the most likable of all the women in the cast. She is very funny in a subplot to rescue Willie Nelson. Adam Scott also scores laughs as Banks' would-be boyfriend. Scott and Rudd have a couple scene were they trade banter that is easy-going and full of wit.

There is one scene that makes the film attain another level. It is a confrontation between Ned and his sister in which the normally soften spoken and passive Ned finally snaps. The way it is handled has such emotional honesty that it gives everything before and after it more meaning and significance. The scene changes a consistently funny comedy into something deeper and better.

“Our Idiot Brother” is playing at the Mountain Valley Mall Cinema 7 in North Conway.

Tele-Talk

What will you remember most about Irene?

Some of us were barely touched by the wind and rain, but all of us were touched by the scenes and stories that surfaced after Tropical Storm Irene passed through. Homes and trailers in low-lying Transvale Acres were tossed about by the surging waters. Homes not even near a river were flooded out in Glen. Roads crumbled and bridges were washed out, stranding people in Hart's Location. The devastation caught many by surprise, but the community, as it always does, responded with prayers and a helping hand for those who were most affected by the storm.

NATIONAL PERSPECTIVE

FXLyons

A Horse Race Column Presidential politics rises flood-like after Labor Day, and this month begins a Niagara of debates.

Before long the airwaves of Des Moines, Iowa, and Manchester, N.H., will be full of appeals to voters and the papers will be full of poll figures.

One of those polls stuck out last week. It was the CNN weekly survey, and it showed that in less than three weeks, Gov. Rick Perry of Texas went from a statistical dead heat with Gov. Mitt Romney of Massachusetts to doubling Romney's support, becoming the clear front-runner in the Republican race. That prompted a CNN commentary setting out a scenario for Campaign 2012 that would have been inconceivable on Independence Day: If it was January/February 2012, Romney would win New Hampshire's primary, while Perry would win the Iowa and Nevada caucuses and would take the South Carolina primary. Perry would then go into Super Tuesday the front-runner and would likely secure enough delegates in those contests to be the nominee. There is plenty of campaign to go, but that is how this race looks from Labor Day 2011.

But here is what could happen between Labor Day and the Republican National Convention in Tampa 51 weeks from now: NOTHING This is not likely but possible. The prognosis above is plausible. Perry is strongly positioned to win the Iowa caucuses. He packs the evangelical and stylistic punch to prevail in a state that in the past quarter-century has seen abortion politics and social conservatism dominate the Republican debate.

If Perry does prevail in Iowa, he's not likely to win in New Hampshire, the next contest. That's because New Hampshire often acts as an antidote to Iowa; former Gov. Mike Huckabee of Arkansas was the GOP winner in Iowa four years ago but lost to Romney in New Hampshire, just as Sen. Barack Obama of Illinois was the Democratic winner in Iowa but lost New Hampshire to Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton of New York.

This pattern has historical roots. In 1988, Sen. Robert J. Dole of Kansas won Iowa but lost New Hampshire to Vice President George H.W. Bush.

And all this is without considering how hostile the terrain of New Hampshire likely will be to Perry. The state has little religious-conservative fervor and, more important, invites independents (who are unlikely to be Perry supporters) to vote in its primary.

The rest of the CNN scenario could happen.

Romney as a Mormon has a fighting chance in Nevada but not much of one in South Carolina, unless former Sen. Rick Santorum of Pennsylvania and Rep. Michele Bachmann of Minnesota remain in the race that long, dividing the socialconservative vote and providing a surprising sunny opening for Romney. If not, Perry could be home free.

PERRY STUMBLES Part of the Texas governor's special appeal is his candor. He's not one of those candidates who try to say what you think. He says what he thinks, and that formula has worked for him.

Unlike Romney, who lost a Senate race to Edward M. Kennedy in Massachusetts and a presidential nomination fight to Sen. John McCain of Arizona, Perry has never lost an election. Caveat: Though he defeated the popular

Sen. Kay Bailey Hutchison in a bruising gubernatorial primary last year, Perry hasn't faced competition nearly as formidable as Romney has.

Perry's campaign depends in unusual measure on his candor. If he transforms it into charm, he could be on the way to the nomination. If he transforms it into recklessness, he could be roadkill.

David Shribman

ROMNEY SURGES, OR ENDURES Romney is more sure-footed than Perry and probably will continue to be better funded than his Texas rival. He won't lose his temper or his focus. The Republican Old Guard isn't nearly as potent as it once was, but it doesn't want Perry at the top of the ticket and will do everything it can to derail him.

The Republican instinct to pick the Next Guy isn't nearly as strong as it once was, either, but Romney is indisputably the Next Guy and could be the man left standing after everyone else has run of money and the public has run out of patience.

Don't count him out. The Don't-UnderestimateHim candidate is said to be Perry, but Romney has a claim to the title as well; hardly anyone's passionate about him, yet he's still around. He wants it more than Perry, is more disciplined and has prepared longer and more deeply. Florida, the first place where there is no natural advantage for any candidate, could be a crucial test.

Romney is readier there in September than Perry will be in March.

SOMEONE ELSE EMERGES The hope that someone else may join the field dwindles with every day, though do not forget how late (March 16) Robert F. Kennedy joined the Democratic contest in 1968 -- and he very well might have won the nomination had he not been murdered.

The 2012 GOP nomination remains a glittery prize; it isn't every day you can run against an incumbent whose disapproval rating is 60 percent (Zogby International) at a time when most likely voters say it's time for someone new in the presidency (55 percent, Zogby) and when consumer confidence has hit a two-year low. A new entrant could change everything. Then again, maybe the new entrant already has entered. His name is Rick Perry.

SOME EVENT INTERCEDES Mayor Joseph B. Harrington of Salem, Mass., was an America-First candidate in a special congressional election on Boston's North Shore, a Democrat who had distanced himself from Franklin Roosevelt and proclaimed himself "100 percent opposed to President Roosevelt's foreign policy." He almost certainly would have won the seat but for one thing. The primary was on Dec. 16, 1941.

Events matter, and the unpredictable is, by definition, difficult to imagine. Perry is in a strong position on the eve of Labor Day. But CNN is right. There is plenty of campaign to go.

Rescued from the edge of darkness To the editor: No words are adequate gratitude for those saved from the streets, kitchen floor, or unimagined situation by the uniformed men and women of fire and ambulance services. Or from our own passion for the hills by the scrubby dressed Mountain Rescue Service (MRS).

Had I known my good luck and fortune last week, perhaps I’d simply have chosen to perform my best all day potato impression ... played the lottery and called Pamela Anderson. But instead, I engaged my life in a daring adventure, because for me it is this, or nothing at all.

It was a very sunny day.

I know this, only for the fact I glimpsed it’s shadow on my shoulder, when my planned outing abruptly fell away. Through a trap door, it sharply hurtled toward night. My dangling fate however, was not simply rescued from the edge of darkness by MRS. Rather joined I feel, by a kindred family, who offered the gift of an alternate ending on the day, and a new begging for tomorrow.

My lucky windfall, came as if a springtime wave that swept up the cliff. An enormous tide of warm and familiar faces, far more than seemed needed, who washed up to inhabit my life.

And today, a week later, is

another sunny day. I study the cucumbers in my garden.

And do my best impression. I did not slip the surely bonds of earth, so in the quiet spaces of the day I am left with a well of mysteries to ponder and decipher. I’m far from bored.

Above all however, I give thanks for the beauty of the creator, seen in the soaring granite walls of Cathedral Ledge ... A place our soaring spirit should never be saved. This is where we go to find meaning and purpose.

Climbing is about believing in your self and the discovery of the unknown. It’s the greatest gift of all to those who know it. Cathedral is a treasured and eternal place to truly live, a towering icon of our daring hearts. And this, beyond myself, I am thankful will never die.

I will be okay, I know this. For after two hours of Robin Williams stand up, my broken ribs are fine... but now I fear a busted gut.

Get out, enjoy life! And trust, my “understanding friends” with MRS and I, will be there should the shadows grow too long.

Hans Bauer Conway Editor’s Note: Hans Bauer survived a 100-foot fall while climbing on Cathedral Ledge Aug. 8, and is recovering from his injuries.

BARTLETT — Walking around the Glen Ellis Campground on Friday, it’s hard to imagine what things looked like on Monday.

“It was devastating,” said Lynn Venezia, who lives and works there. “We were hip deep here in the driveway.”

She sat behind the counter in the office clicking through pictures of flooded campsites, tennis courts and roads. “This went from nothing to that in 20 minutes.”

“The sound was immense,” she said. “It was rushing like Niagara Falls.”

The flood tore up pavement and left sinkholes.

Dumpsters wound up hundreds of yards downstream.

But in many ways Glen Ellis was ready for the flood. Staff closed the campground and moved campers to high ground. Everyone waited out the storm in the office.

“We have flooded before and flooded badly,” said Joelle Goff, whose family is one of the owners, “but never like this.” Everyone cried at one point or another, she said, as the water rose and licked at their trailers.

Ultimately, however, they were largely spared.

“We built the roads first,” Goff said, using their own trucks and crew. They had guests by Monday night, she said, and as the holiday weekend approached, “we have 101 families coming in today.” see IRENE page 21

Crawford said the positive story about Irene's impact is how residents have come together to help one another.

GOLF COURSES REBOUND Most local golf courses have recovered from the storm’s flooding. Volunteers have joined local crews in showing up at courses armed with rakes in place of their golf clubs, note grateful local course officials.

North Conway Country Club pro Larry Gallagher said Friday that the 18-hole course’s driving range will reopen Saturday, but that it may take another week before the course reopens, due to the heavy damage caused by flooding by the Saco, especially at Hole No. 12, where a dike was breached. The club's Ledgeview Grille is open for breakfast, lunch and dinner.

“We’re taking it day-by-day. People have been great, showing up with rakes to help us out. The ground is still too wet out there to get heavy equipment there, as rocks got dumped there on the 12th. So, call the pro shop and we can keep people updated,” said Gallagher. The pro shop can be reached by calling 356-5244.

All 18 holes of the Wentworth Resort Golf Club (383-9641) in Jackson were expected to be open by Saturday. The course opened its back 9 Tuesday after the front 9 sustained extensive flooding from the wildcat and Ellis rivers Sunday.

“We’re opening all 18 tomorrow,” said Jessica Dolan of the pro shop Friday.

The Eagle Mountain Golf Course (383-9090) in Jackson was expected to reopen Saturday, according to pro Bob McGraw. Th driving range reopened Friday.

Indian Mound (539-7733) in Ossipee reopened Thursday morning with all 18 holes, according to pro Jonathan Rivers. His sister, Julie Rivers, who is the pro at Hale’s Location Golf Club (356-2140), said her course was fortunate not to have had to close at all this past week, as it is situated on high ground, and away from any bodies of water.

Province Lake Golf Course (207-7934040) in Parsonsfield, Maine, opened its back nine on Monday, and opened its entire 18-hole layout Tuesday.

The Omni Mount Washington Resort (278-1000) had its 18-hole course opened as of Tuesday, but its nine-hole course may have to wait until mid-week next week, according to a spokesperson in the pro shop Friday.

HIKING IMPACTS The White Mountain National Forest on Thursday said that five more campgrounds will be reopened this Labor Day Weekend.

Jigger Johnson and one loop of the Pasaconaway Campground were opened Friday, joining the reopened Osceola Campground, Barnes Field Campground and Dolly Copp Campground.

“When assessed earlier this week, we fully expected these campgrounds to remain inaccessible through the weekend,” said Colleen Mainville Thursday. “With this expectation, we didn’t want visitors to make the trip only to find the campgrounds closed, and therefore the forest canceled reservations at Osceola, Barnes Field

and Dolly Copp. When the forest service initiates the reservation cancellation, the visitor receives a full refund with no cancellation fee. Thanks to the hard work of Forest Service crews and the New Hampshire Department of Transportation, access to these campgrounds has been restored in time for the weekend.”

Mainville said access to Dolly Copp and Barnes Field will be available via Pinkham B Road. This secondary access route has been graded and made accessible by passenger vehicles to the two popular campgrounds. "The road has soft shoulders and is narrow," Mainville said. "Deteriorating asphalt and pot holes are found on the road.

We ask users to use caution and drive at slow speeds for their own safety and to limit damage to their vehicles and trailers.

Due to previously canceled reservations, these campgrounds will be on a first-come, first-serve basis for the weekend.

“We understand the cancellation of reservations may have caused some hardship. We apologize for any inconvenience and hope visitors will understand,” said Mainville.

For a list of areas that are closed, visit www.fs.fed.us/r9/white The Appalachian Mountain Club's huts and lodges in the White Mountain region, including Joe Dodge Lodge, the Highland Center and Cardigan Lodge, reopened on Tuesday. On the club's website (www.outdoors.org), the AMC notes that major trails to the huts are passable, but hikers may encounter erosion or bridges out, requiring minor stream crossings. Minor or connecting trails earlier in the week had not been inspected. For more information about trails, call 466-2721.

IRENE from page 14

Almost all of the 220 campsites are now open, she said. Operations are returning to normal.

Just up the street on Route 302, John Gonya was drying out his 82-year-old mother’s things. The water rose a few inches above her floor, he said, but it fried almost every appliance in the house.

“The one appliance that might be OK is the stove,” he said, because the guts of it are up high.

But the refrigerator, furnace, hot water heater and freezers are done, as are the carpets and floors.

“We’re lucky it didn’t get any higher,” he said, otherwise he’d have to rip out the walls.”

There was a glaze of mud on steps down to the basement and a layer of silt caked up to the underside of the floor.

“That’s our next project,” Gonya said, looking at the mess.

Lots of people are in the sorting-out phase after Irene blew through last Sunday, not least among them town and state officials.

“We’re in pretty good shape,” Bartlett selectman Gene Chandler said. “All our roads are open.”

He and the other selectmen were trying to let people know anyone affected by the flood should call 211, the line the state set up to aid the response.

“We thought everyone knew,”

Chandler said, but they talked to a man who thought if he had flood insurance he wasn’t supposed call. No, the selectmen told him, this number is for everyone.

“He called right from town hall.”

The disaster evaluations are just beginning, he said. Representatives from the Federal Emergency Management Agency, or FEMA, will be here this weekend for an initial review.

“They won’t be talking to everybody,” Chandler said. This is just the beginning.

The selectmen, meanwhile, are concentrating on their own responsibilities.

“Our biggest issue it this work we’re doing on the berm,” Chandler said, referring to shoulders along the Saco River and Rocky Branch. They are building them back up to ensure rain this fall or spring won’t cause repeated floods. The work on the Saco is done, he said, and now it’s time to get to work on Rocky Branch.

The state has also been hard at work.

“We’re basically going seven days a week,” said Bill Boynton, spokesman for the Department of Transportation.

Early estimates are the clean up will cost the state $5.4 million, he said, including $500,000 for the Kancamagus Highway, $1 million for Route 302 and $800,000 for Route 16. “There’s quite a bit of damage there,” he

said, even though the road is open.

He stressed that Bear Notch Road is open, and Route 302 and the Kancamagus Highway are open for much of their length even though they have bridges out. The state has gone to great lengths to let people know there are businesses on these roads that are open despite damage farther up or down.

The DOT is trying to strike a balance, he said. “We want people to know two major east-west corridors are closed to traffic,” but without driving away visitors.

“You can still do a lot of things in the northern part of the state.”

The timetable for repairs is starting come together, he said.

Most roads should be passable

by Sept. 15, except for Route 302, which should be patched by Sept.

30.

“If we get really good weather we’re looking to beat that date,” he said.

And those repairs are only patches.

“Essentially combat engineering,” he said. The full rebuild of the Sawyer River bridge on Route 302 will have to go out to bid, and it will likely cost about $2 million.

“We’re hoping and expecting to get a certain percentage reimbursed,” Boynton said, but exactly who that money will come from is still up in the air.

Local resident and business person Steffani Adaska of West Side Road this week has started a relief effort to help Transvale Acres residents. Motorists beginning Friday could see a sign on a collection table near the North Country Animal Hospital seeking donations.

“Please donate 4 our neighbors. Transvale Acres needs our help,” reads the handwritten sign on the table. (JAMIE GEMMITI PHOTO)

nearby ponds. In those areas, pulling a canoe off to a bank could be problematic in swampy or steepbanked areas. As always, paddlers should be extra cautious of down trees. The current is strong enough to pin people against fallen debris.

Saco River Canoe Rental Company reopened on Thursday for experienced paddlers, said Peter Gagne, of Saco River Canoe. Gagne paddled from First Bridge to his company's landing and was pleasantly surprised by how that 7.2-mile stretch fared. Only one tree was down but there was lots of erosion. Thursday's flow rate would be typical for May or June.

"Saco Canoe Rentals Company has been renting canoe, kayak for 30 years on this section of the river and 2,000 cfs is a company guide we use for rentals," said Gagne. "Individuals who have paddled the Saco River before at this level should not incur many problems; it is a quicker level but the river is now much wider to maneuver around any debris. We do not allow any children under the age of 12 when the level is over 1,200 cfs. Since most of our customer are not experienced paddlers we instituted these guidelines."

The National Oceanic Atmospheric Administration is predicting the river to be around 1,000 cfs for the weekend, said Gagne. On Wednesday, the flow was 2,600 cfs.

Gagne predicts that the section of river from Swan's Falls to Canal Bridge should be fine for paddling this weekend because it's very wide and does not have many fallen trees and debris. Gagne hasn't looked lower than Canal Bridge.

This time of year is usually the second slowest weekend of the summer, said Gagne. With the added restrictions on who can rent, Gagne forecasts a 50 percent drop in business. As for his business itself, it see next page

Bearcamp River. The Bearcamp rises fast and falls fast, he said. Canoe King is waiting for the flow to drop to 1,500 cfs. At the height of the storm the river was at 5,000 cfs. Canoe King also provides livery service to several lakes, including Silver, Chocorua, Ossipee, and White.

On Thursday, Fred Westerberg, owner of Saco River Canoe and Kayak, said he plans on offering limited trips this weekend. Ordinarily, his company would let people paddle from Swan's Falls in Fryeburg, Maine to Hiram, Maine. However, this weekend people will be able to paddle to from Swan's Falls to Walker's Bridge on Route 302. Westerberg said this is the biggest summer flood event he's seen in the last 25 years.

Westerberg founded his Fryeburgbased business in 1971.

Columbia New England Mountain Sports rents tubes. Whether Columbia will be open or not depends on what the other liveries do, said manager David Dethlefs. Columbia New England looks for a flow rate of 1,200 cfs.

Saco River Recreational Council's cleanup day, scheduled for Sept. 17, is still scheduled to occur. The cleanup day is for removing human garbage, not downed trees. Volunteers should call in advance.

lost a half dozen boats, has lots of mud in the parking lot, broken canoe racks, and sustained damage to its landing.

Fall paddling is like spring skiing, said Tagliaferri. He doesn't know why more people don't do it. The fall foliage is beautiful along the river.

Northern Extremes Canoe and Kayak, of Conway, expects to be open this weekend. Before staff members decide to open they will inspect the stretch they rent on. They aren't particularly busy this time of year because children have gone back to school.

"Irene impacted us as the river is closed for business until we decide it’s safe," Northern Extremes wrote in an e-mail on Wednesday.

On Thursday, Andes Mountain Sports, in Bartlett, kept its section of river closed. That section runs from Glen Ellis campground to First Bridge. The water was murky and full of debris. Luckily, the storm didn't damage the Andes building.

On Friday, Andes manager Kathleen Harrigan said the upper river still "looked sketchy" and they wouldn't put people in there. However, Andes is willing to put experienced paddlers in at First Bridge. As an alternative to river paddling, Andes can also take paddlers to Echo Lake.

A representative of Canoe King of New England, in Tamworth, said his business will more than likely be open for business this weekend on the

pause for us on a hike, but this happened a few times on this one. Not every beautiful day was the day after a hurricane.

Finally we continued up the steep and smooth open ledges of Welch. It was pretty easy to avoid wet ledge from the hurricane. The mountain was drying in the sun like the back of a painted turtle.

We began to see groups of jack pine, one of a few places in the Whites where they grow, at the southern limit of their range in the east. In keeping with the dry nomenclature of natural community classifications, such a rare place where they grow is called a “jack pine ridge.”

The upper slopes of Mount Welsh are a perfect combination of weathering granite and vegetation. Soon we reached the top, where the view west opened up. I asked my girlfriend to sit in the exact spot where she sat last time we were there, a couple Augusts ago. I knew the old photo couldn’t be repeated, but I could try — if only to acknowledge how much the old photo had meant to us.

It was 5 p.m. and the evening light made love to the landscape. We scrambled down the steep incline to the saddle, with its giant cairn, and started up towards the summit of Dickey Mountain.

A peak called Mount Dickey in Alaska is a much less human and more vertical place, where the world’s best mountaineers have tested and gone beyond their limits. In fact, these two mountains with similar names are so different, that on an expanse

of flat ledge on the summit of Dickey Mountain in New Hampshire, sacred circle dances have regularly been done by a place called Neskaya Movement Arts Center in Franconia. Only in the hallucinating mind of a climber have any been done on the summit of the Alaskan peak.

From the saddle we climbed up to one of the most dramatic nearby views in the Whites-- the view of the summit cone of Mount Welch from Mount Dickey. Walking a short way further was a view north to the Franconia Ridge, made attractive by the evening light.

We headed down the prodigal flat ledges of the west ridge of Dickey, which alternate with thick conifers.

As we had found on the hike, wet spots on ledges were brand new from the storm so there was no algae buildup, making them slippery. Most could be walked on safely with care, though of course, avoiding them was preferable.

Part way down the ledges, we came across the circle in the ledge. Again this time, the question arose — is it man made? It is a uniform circle, an irregularity in the flat surface almost 3 feet in diameter, facing west.

After the last time we saw it there, I made a few inquiries. Geologists didn’t reply. Those who thought it was native made, did. My girlfriend and I had a standing joke: I would say remember that unusual geological phenomenon, the circle? She would say you mean that circle made by Native Americans? see HIKING page 28

DAVID EASTMAN

Country Ecology: Bee swarm A recent article in the magazine Northern Woodlands prompted me to remember a boyhood experience in Rhode Island, where I had discovered a swarm of bees next door at an old school house. They suddenly were all over that building’s porch column, and I wondered where they had come from. I pondered how to catch the lot of them and go into the honey production business. Not knowing much, I put down a metal bucket, white with its porcelain exterior, because it resembled what I thought a natural hive shape to be.

They paid no heed to it.

The swarm lasted several days, and I visited it a few times daily.

Getting more curious with my observations, I inserted my hand into it, and the bees paid no mind to that either, crawling around and intent on something else. I withdrew my arm; remaining amazed they had not stung me.

In another day, they were completely gone, but that memory has always stuck with me.

Beekeepers in the old days would discover a honey bee swarm and then follow it to its new destination for capture. The population of the hive had been splitting and as the queen departed with her entourage, now was a chance to gather up this resulting clan and move the bees into a hive for a farmstead’s newest supply of honey.

In the late spring, and early summer months, if a honey bee colony becomes overcrowded in its hive, it will cast a swarm. Whenever this happens, about a third of its worker bees stay at home and rear a new queen, which perpetuates the “mother colony.” But the other two-

thirds of the workforce numbering in the thousands will rush off with the old queen to set up a “daughter colony.” These migrating bees travel only about a hundred feet before coalescing into a hanging, beardlike cluster, and this is what I had seen.

In the old days, if an experienced beekeeper came quickly with a ladder and shook the swarm into an empty hive, his task had been achieved of capturing this new colony.

Obviously being on the alert for this phenomenon pays off. The author of the piece, Thomas D. Seeley, said he had been observing bees swarming for years and was curious as to how they scouted out new living quarters and derived consensus in their decision making about that real estate.

The Northern Woodlands article is quite complex, but then beekeepers are always renown for their deep knowledge of the subject, too.

While you can read about the messages the scout bees make to one another as a search committee in this magazine’s summer’11 issue, what I did find interesting was how big a tree cavity the bees are looking for. Choosing an appropriate size hole, which direction it faces, and the capacity to store 40-60 pounds of honey are critical as a life-or-death choice, so the professor states. Honey bees are unique among insects living in cold climates for not surrendering to winter’s cold, but storing up honey and staying warm and active inside their nest.

They accomplish their over-wintering by pressing together to form a tight, well-insulated cluster of bees about the size of a soccer ball and generating heat by shivering

with their powerful flight muscles.

Throughout the winter, this cluster’s surface temperature must be kept above 50 degrees F. For the outermost bees to stay alive, and its core temperature maintained at about 95 degrees to rear more bees.

The fuel for this is accomplished from consuming the stockpiled 40-60 pounds of honey from the previous summer.

What the bees had to do much earlier when they swarmed was to estimate the spaciousness of the tree cavity to accommodate about ten gallons of living room. It is essential for the bees to occupy a cavity adequate enough to accommodate their combs for holding that much honey and also additional combs for reproducing bees. The tree must be warmed by the sun, and have a bottom in that chamber, with the entrance hole located right there, with the living space above.

Another aspect is to be high enough to deter predators like bears and skunks, who might overlook it from the ground.

The most intriguing aspect to me in this story was that the bees throw out the decayed punky wood, acting remedial with their living quarters. They also scrape off the dungy walls and create a solid surface for attaching the beeswax combs. They then varnish these newly cleaned walls with a layer of resins collected from the buds and wounds of various tree species found around the site. A tough, shiny interior coating results. And these resins have strong antimicrobial properties which are an important weapon in a bee colony’s defense against fungi, bacteria, and viruses.

went on to catch several more trout and salmon before I finally changed position and tactics. I switched to a heavily weighted streamer and began to cast into the fast water. After a few short casts I hooked a nice rainbow.

For whatever reason the fish stopped feeding and we decided to move on.

It was decided that we should probably move on down to North Dam. We did take time to make a quick stop at Ursula’s for a piece of her famous pie.

I had the coconut cream and Nate got the last piece of blueberry.

At North dam we unloaded our boats. I had my inflatable pontoon and Nate had his kayak. The problem with drifting any river is that it is necessary to have two cars in order to be able to get back to your starting point.

We quickly drove down to the take out place and dropped off my truck and than hurried back to our starting point to begin the drift.

When I got into my boat I discovered that I had assembled the foot braces wrong and my feet would not reach them. With no tools to work with it took me a few minutes to remove the braces. I used my forceps as makeshift tool that enabled me to get the pins out so that I could make the necessary adjustments. The message here is before making any kind of trip make sure that all of your equipment is in working order before you venture out. This little misstep was a forewarning of things to come. This was only my second time in this boat and I still have a lot of bugs to work out.

The anchor system being a primary concern. Although I did spend most of my time learning how to run the boat both I and the boat did quite well.

Nate did catch a few nice trout and we witnessed one of the most epic hatches I have ever seen. Right around 7:30 p.m. every kind of conceivable insect made an appearance.

There was a fair sized mayfly spinner fall going on along with several different caddis and stonefly hatches. There were even a few flying ants; something that Nate had been looking for all day.

I did manage to hook, what appeared to be a decent fish, on a caddis pattern. Nate, however, was taking fish on a Wood’s Special; a pattern that I never would have believed in a hundred years would have worked.

At 8 p.m. the hatch came to an abrupt end and it was now pitch black.

We got under way and with in a few minutes reached our take out point.

There is no real boat launch here and taking your boat out means dragging it out over the rocks around the bridge abutment. It is times like this when I realize that I am getting older. I was greatly relieved to have the boats secured in the back of the truck.

Nate had a couple of cold beers tucked away in the bottom of his cooler and we paused to crack them open and toast the end of another great day of fishing. As we sipped our beers we leaned against the side of the truck and looked up to admire the night sky. The stars were as bright as I have ever seen them. We sat there for quite awhile picking out the few constellations that we knew, once you get past the Big Dipper and Orion it is pretty much over for me. There seemed to be a lot of air traffic that evening. Perhaps they were all headed north to avoid the impending hurricane. These are the moments that define fishing trips and we will remember for many years to come.

CONWAY — Mountain Top Music Center’s fall semester will begin on Tuesday, Sept. 6. There have been many changes at Mountain Top this summer, including the departure of Mike Sakash as executive director, but the high-quality programs the community has come to expect from Mountain Top – plus exciting new programs – are starting up under the guidance of new executive director George Wiese.

Wiese comes to Mountain Top with an energetic enthusiasm for making music in his adopted home — the Mount Washington Valley. Wiese is a graduate of the Juilliard School and the Peabody Conservatory of Johns Hopkins University, where he studied orchestral conducting, trombone, and piano. He has worked and traveled extensively as a symphonic conductor, and recently spent two seasons as the assistant conductor of the Southern Maine Symphony at the University of Southern Maine. Residents of the Mount Washington Valley who attend local theater might already know George from his recent work as a musical director with the Mount Washington Valley Theatre Company, and Arts in Motion Theater.

Fall course catalogues for Mountain Top are currently available at mountaintopmusic.org, or in person at the Center (111 Main St., Conway).

Registrations for private lessons and classes are currently being accepted online, in person, or by phone (4474737).

In addition to the high-quality lessons and programs the community expects of Mountain Top, a new addi-

This time, she admitted to seeing a few similar markings on the ledges of Dickey that were only part of a circle, but not complete like this one. Yet they might indicate that it was a geological thing. I, on the other hand, was beginning to lean towards the native made theory, though I can’t explain exactly why.

Just after we left the circle, she heard a noise above us on the trail. We paused. A female runner

appeared, smiled, and was gone down the trail.

Before the trail entered the forest for good, it traversed a beautiful ledge next to the drop off into the ravine between the two peaks. Luminous orange lit the top of Welsh Mountain, across the gulf.

We said good night to the bright evening scene, and walked down into the dim forest, where the trail was covered with shards of green oak leaves, blasted out of their trees by Hurricane Irene.

DAILY CROSSWORD TRIBUNE MEDIA SERVICES

by Lynn Johnston

by Scott Adams

DILBERT

By Holiday Mathis versation that will go on for months to come.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You are not content to talk about what everyone else is talking about -- most likely other people. You will instead be on the lookout for something fun, quirky and interesting to share.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21).

You wisely realize that nothing is all right or all wrong. That’s why you are willing to listen to advice even when you get the feeling it’s not the best. However small the kernel of truth may be, you’re always listening for it.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19).

You cannot predict from whence your next friendship will come. It’s as though your life is an endless hall of doors. You never know what’s behind the door until you open it.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). What seems impromptu usually takes a lot of work to perfect. You realize this and appreciate all the efforts people make to show up in the world as they do. In other words, you “get it.”

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You’ll be in a position to do damage control and maybe even save someone from himself. Your sign mate Albert Einstein said that the difference between stupidity and genius is that genius has its limits.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Sept. 3). You will be truly grateful for all that happens this year, whether the luck appears at first to be good or bad. There’s a windfall this month. The obstacles you face in November will help you to become focused and intense. Your associations are lighthearted and filled with pleasure and enjoyment. Aquarius and Gemini people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 30, 1, 24, 39 and 18.

Get Fuzzy

ARIES (March 21-April 19). It may be a challenge to get your motor running. It’s like pushing a car to get it started -- once you get it moving, it’s not so hard to keep it going. Helpful friends will make a difference.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). The Zen master says that happiness depends on the absence of expectation. And your mother says that without high expectations there would be no remarkable achievements. You’ll strike a balance between these two extremes.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). There’s a battle of wills going on, but it’s so subtle that it’s difficult to detect at all.

However, you should be aware that the gentle, sweet people in your life will put up the toughest fight.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). Your loved ones mean to help you, though their help may not be the most appropriate for your problem. You will probably learn more from outside sources now. Stray from your inner circle to seek assistance.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). If you don’t ask for what you want, you may still get it due to all the thinking and daydreaming you’ve been doing on the subject.

It’s like every part of you is expecting a certain result, and it’s obvious to all around you.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Letting nature take its course is not advised.

Passivity will bring unfavorable results.

Take charge of your destiny. When you put your mind to it, you can elevate your life beyond what you’ve known thus far.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). An entrepreneurial spirit takes hold. You’re in the mood to create solutions for yourself and others. Smart friends will help you develop ideas. You’ll start a con-

Yesterday’s Answer

THE CONWAY DAILY SUN, Saturday, September 3, 2011— Page 35

Today is Saturday, Sept. 3, the 246th day of 2011. There are 119 days left in the year.

Today’s Highlight in History: On Sept. 3, 1861, during the Civil War, Confederate forces invaded the border state of Kentucky, which had declared its neutrality in the conflict; the incursion prompted the legislature to seek assistance from the Union.

On this date: In 1189, England’s King Richard I (the Lion-Hearted) was crowned in Westminster Abbey.

In 1783, representatives of the United States and Britain signed the Treaty of Paris, which officially ended the Revolutionary War. In 1923, the United States and Mexico resumed diplomatic relations.

In 1939, Britain, France, Australia and New Zealand declared war on Germany, two days after the Nazi invasion of Poland.

In 1943, the British Eighth Army invaded Italy during World War II, the same day Italy signed a secret armistice with the Allies.

In 1951, the television soap opera “Search for Tomorrow” made its debut on CBS. In 1971, Qatar became independent of British rule.

In 1976, America’s Viking 2 lander touched down on Mars to take the first close-up, color photographs of the planet’s surface.

In 1978, Pope John Paul I was formally installed as leader of the Roman Catholic Church. (However, he died less than a month later.)

In 1991, Academy Award-winning director Frank Capra died in La Quinta, Calif., at age 94.

One year ago: Defense Secretary Robert Gates toured U.S. bases and war zones in Afghanistan, saying he saw and heard evidence that the American counterinsurgency strategy was taking hold in critical Kandahar province. The Fox network announced that Kara DioGuardi was stepping down as one of the judges on “American Idol,” following the departures of Simon Cowell and Ellen DeGeneres.

Today’s Birthdays: “Beetle Bailey” cartoonist Mort Walker is 88. Actress Anne Jackson is 85. Actress Eileen Brennan is 79. Country singer Tompall Glaser is 78.

Actress Pauline Collins is 71. Rock singermusician Al Jardine is 69. Actress Valerie Perrine is 68. Rock musician Donald Brewer (Grand Funk Railroad) is 63. Rock guitarist Steve Jones (The Sex Pistols) is 56. Actor Steve Schirripa is 54. Actor Holt McCallany is 47. Rock singer-musician Todd Lewis is 46. Actor Charlie Sheen is 46. Singer Jennifer Paige is 38. Actress Ashley Jones is 35. Actress Nichole Hiltz is 33. Actor Nick Wechsler is 33. Actor Garrett Hedlund is 27.

Page 38 — THE CONWAY DAILY SUN, Saturday, September 3, 2011

by Abigail Van Buren

ADULT SON’S CRITICAL FATHER ISN’T WORTH TRYING TO PLEASE

DEAR ABBY: My wife and I have a good life and are financially secure. Our kids are grown and we now have grandchildren. The problem is my father.

Every time I’m around him, he always comments on my shortcomings and faults. I have never measured up to my father’s standards, and I finally realize I never will. I have lost all respect for him and do not want to be around him at all.

My mother is nothing like him, and I still enjoy her company. I don’t understand why he treats me this way. Most fathers would be proud to have a son like me. Any suggestions, Abby? -- LOSING SANITY IN KENTUCKY DEAR LOSING SANITY: Your father may act the way he does out of a need to control you. By withholding approval, he makes you constantly try to win it. Or, he may be hypercritical out of some deep-seated insecurity of his own because it makes him feel superior.

Believe it or not, your father’s behavior probably has less to do with you than with HIM. For further insight into your toxic parent, please talk to a psychologist. It will be money and time well-spent.

DEAR ABBY: A younger brother died of cancer four years ago. Recently his wife, “Kaye,” has been coming to stay with my husband and me for a week or two at a time. The reason for the frequent visits is she has a boyfriend here in Arizona.

(She lives in California.)

Kaye tells me she “misses me” and uses that as an excuse for her visits, but I know she’s doing it for the free lodging. I don’t want to hurt her feelings, but she isn’t getting the hint.

My husband is retired and doesn’t want Kaye in our home this often. She has visited for three weeks over the past two months and wants to come back again. I think her boyfriend should pay for her lodging. Then she can come, see us, and spend as much time as she wants with him.

How can I help Kaye see the big picture? -- SORE SISTERIN-LAW IN PHOENIX DEAR “SIS”: Your hints haven’t been strong enough. Tell Kaye that the time she wants to come “isn’t convenient” and suggest she make arrangements for other accommodations such as hotel or motel.

If she says she can’t afford it, suggest that her boyfriend “chip in” -- or better yet, visit her in California.

DEAR ABBY: A friend, “Dave,” is coming here for a visit.

He wears false teeth. My husband refuses to have meals with him because Dave removes his teeth when he eats. My husband says it’s repulsive and ruins his dinner. Now he wants me to tell Dave to keep his teeth in or he won’t be joining us.

I’m afraid it will make things awkward and cause hard feelings. What to do? -- IN THE MIDDLE IN THE COACHELLA VALLEY DEAR IN THE MIDDLE: One would think that denture wearers would need their dental appliances in in order to eat. The fact Dave removes his may indicate that his don’t fit properly. Call your friend and suggest he see his dentist before he makes the trip. That way, Dave may be able to eat comfortably with his teeth in, and your husband won’t be so grossed out he has to eat elsewhere.

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

Historical society hosts program on Lizzie Borden I hope everyone made it through Irene without alot of storm damage.

We are seeing animals come into the wildlife center because of the storm.

One poor little baby Barred owl was struck by a vehicle in Wolfeboro and sat by the side of the road in the storm with a broken leg until a caring motorist picked him up and called us for help. We are also seeing baby squirrels blown out of their nests, several hawks, baby doves and one small baby robin which I couldn't help naming "Irene". Thanks to everyone for their help. Want to volunteer? Call us at 367-WILD (9453); we are putting together a year round program.

If you've ever wanted to glide across the ice like the figure skaters on TV, improve your skating skills to better play hockey, or just safely keep up with your kids (or grand-

kids) on the backyard pond, the Mount Washington Valley Skating Club has a class for you.

Beginning Sept. 11, the club is offering group classes, for all ages and abilities, in figure skating as well as learn to skate for hockey. Children as young as 3 to 5 years old are taught the fundamentals of balancing and moving on skates in Snowplow Sam classes.

These classes provide an excellent foundation for more advanced figure skating classes or for participation in some of the area's many hockey programs.

Older children who have either not skated before or desire to improve their skating skills are enrolled in the club's Basic 8 classes which teach the fundamentals of skating, again laying the groundwork for either the see MADISON page 46

Attend the Tin Mountain EcoForum: Bringing Renewable Energy to the Valley with ‘Energy Raisers’ on Thursday, Sept. 8, from noon to 1 p.m. to learn more about local renewable energy options.

Eco Forum on bringing renewable energy to the valley Sept. 8 in Albany

ALBANY — Tin Mountain Conservation Center partnered with the Plymouth Area Renewable Energy Initiative (PAREI) in fall 2010 to form a local arm of the organization.

PAREI is known for their commu-

nity energy raisers, a neighbor-helping-neighbor concept of installing solar hot water systems on residential homes. see next page

The volunteer component of energy raisers lowers the cost of installation, provides local tradespeople a showcase for their skills, and strengthens bonds within a community. Representatives from both PAREI and Tin Mountain will be presenting at this month’s EcoForum on Thursday, Sept. 8 from noon to 1 p.m. at the Nature Learning Center in Albany.

PAREI is a non-profit citizen’s organization whose mission is “to encourage energy conservation and energy efficiency practices and to promote the use of renewable energy in the Plymouth, NH region.

This is done through education, community building, increasing accessibility to professional energyrelated services, and by developing and sharing our model with other communities.”

Peter Adams, founder and co-director, and Irene Garvey, president of board, will be presenting for PAREI. Adams’ home in Campton, was the site of PAREI’s first energy raiser in 2005.

It was apparent the desire for local renewable energy options was present in the Mount Washington Valley when more than 35 individuals show up to the first informational meeting at Tin Mountain last fall.

Designated the Tin Mountain area Renewable Energy Initiative, or TMREI, the local arm hit the ground running with an energy raiser scheduled before they even had a volunteer base. In the past 10 months, TMREI has completed two energy raisers in the area and has another scheduled for Sept. 17.

Anyone interested in participating or just learning more is encouraged to attend this forum.

Local author of ‘The Hooker’s Daughter’ at The Met Sept. 9

CONWAY — Dale Stanten will talk about her book “The Hooker’s Daughter “ at The Met Coffee House in North Conway Village Friday, Sept. 9, at 7 p.m.

In 1950s Jewish Boston, Dale’s mother established a home-based business as a prostitute to remedy her husband’s inability to provide for his family. At age six, the author was answering the front door for johns.

Neighborhood children were forbidden to play with her and even the Girl Scouts asked her to leave. What a terrible irony, in a family with so many strange and twisted realities that her gay sister, “coming out” at age 16, was the only thing her parents focused on as contemptible.

The Hooker’s Daughter is a story of survival, driven by a strong will and an ability to extract positive qualities from a dysfunctional life. The author was able to reconcile the reality of her environment with what she wished it to be. The resulting tenacity enabled Dale to cope with her terminally ill husband and widowhood at age 37. Her unconditional love for her mother challenges the reader to examine beyond that which is socially acceptable and identify that which is universal. Excerpts from “The Hooker’s Daughter” and ordering information can be found at www.TheHookersDaughter.com.

Bearcamp Children's Center for the past two years and has been extremely successful. The intergenerational tutoring program, as its name implies, matches children with adult tutors.

The children are selected by their teachers as being at risk for reading difficulty. Tutors are assigned to an individual child and commit to working one hour/week during the school year with that same student at the same day and time each week. (Dates and times of tutoring are at your mutual convenience.) There are many volunteer programs but what sets this one apart is the training that the volunteers receive, the materials that are made available to them, and the support they receive throughout the school year.

Albany Town Column

Mary Leavitt 447-1710 /Dorothy Solomon 447-1199

Swift River Clean-up scheduled for Sept. 10 The Selectmen met on Monday to discuss how the storm affected Albany. Curtis Coleman, road agent, Bryan Taylor, emergency management agent, and Rick Alimi of the U.S. Forest Service were there to advise the selectmen. According to Curtis, here in Albany, the town roads were mostly spared, with whatever damage done being relatively minor. Rick Alimi said they were working with the N.H. Department of Transportation on the Kancamagus Highway. There the covered bridge was closed though not damaged. However, the Kancamagus took a beating. Roads and campgrounds were damaged and on Wednesday, the entire road from the DOT’s building in Conway through to Lincoln was closed for a while.

Though the road is now open up to Bear Notch Road, it is not expected that the entire roadway will be open for several weeks. The DOT is working with the Forest Service to get the forest reopened.

There was no selectmen’s meeting this week as it was the fifth Wednesday of the month. The town offices will be closed Monday for Labor Day. We have just been through an ordeal here in New England.

Though we hear a great deal about the flooding in Vermont, we here in Carroll County had our share of problems. Many saw the story and pictures in The Conway Daily Sun of the various problems in roadways in Bartlett, Hart’s Location and Conway. Because of Hurricane Irene, the Red Cross shelter at the Conway Recreation Center was open and available. People were asked to bring items they would need to the shelter with them. Disaster information is available through the Red Cross should the need arise again. Please keep this in mind for the future.

Tin Mountain: Join PAREI and TMREI to learn more about efforts to install solar thermal systems in homes through the neighbor-helping-neighbor energy raiser events on Thursday, Sept. 8, from noon to 1 p.m. at the Nature Learning Center.

Saturday, Sept. 10, and Sunday, Sept. 11, from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. join master craftsman Chris Tanguay to learn the art of dry stone wall building. The cost is $50 per day or $75 for both days. Call 447-6991 to reserve space.

Gibson Center: The Gibson Center will be closed on Labor Day. Thursday will be the final summer Scone Tea on the Patio starting at 2:30 p.m. Please call 356-3231 for reservations. Check out the “hearing enhancement program” at the center on Friday at 10:30 a.m. Remember the Fashion Show and Silver Tea to benefit the CVCC Food Pantry will

be held at the Conway Village Congregational Church on Saturday, Sept. 10 at 1:30 p.m.

School started on Wednesday, Aug. 21. All buildings were inspected for any damage due to the storm.

They were found to be in good order and ready for the new school year.

According to the paper, everything went smoothly on opening day.

Here’s hoping it continues so.

Mud Bowl season is here. There will be a parade in North Conway on Sept 10 honoring the veterans and responders of the 9/11 tragedy. Ten teams will be featured in the Mud Bowl this year.

The 16 Annual Swift River Cleanup is presently scheduled for Sept.

10 from 9 a.m. to noon. Because of the recent storm, it is suggested you call Kathy Carrier at 447-4979 or the Saco Ranger Station during the week to check for further information.

Sept. 10 seems to be a really popular date. The new Mountain View Community building will have its ribbon cutting ceremony at 10 a.m. in Ossipee on that date as well. All are welcome to attend.

Safety Tip: Falls account for an average of 5.1 million injuries and nearly 6,000 deaths each year. Check your stair safety. Have handrails on both sides of the stairs/steps. Have lots of light at top and bottom of staircase. Keep stairs clear.

Watch out on the roads. I found recently that the wildlife is out and about. There was a deer that scooted across the Kanc one morning and a bear that crossed Route 16. At least the bear was smart enough to check the traffic coming both ways before running across the road.

Stan and I were in New York visiting my ailing brother last week. We returned on Saturday just before Irene hit. Still we had an opportunity to do something we haven’t done in years ... go to New York City and attend a Broadway show. We saw Jersey Boys and it was great.

We had dinner at our favorite restaurant near Broadway. It was also a favorite of Jerry Auerbach, the recently deceased actor, who played in the Law and Order series. When we got out of the theater at 10:30 p.m. the streets were still teeming with people. It was a great visit, but I still wouldn’t want to live there.

Far too busy for me. We were happy to get home to the peace and beauty of New Hampshire, even with Irene looming.

This weekend is a big one. It’s Labor Day and there are likely to be lots of people even with the aftermath of the storm. Be safe and enjoy yourselves!

REAL ESTATE CORNER

Speaking the language

HOME OF THE WEEK

BY JASON ROBIE If you have ever found yourself caught between two IT enthusiasts or two military personnel, you will likely find yourself in a haze of jargon, acronyms and a vocabulary that sounds like a foreign language. Once you are familiar with the terminology, the conversation starts to make sense and you can even join in without sounding like a complete buffoon. I think we’ve all been there at some point in our lives. When I first started my career in networking and IT, you can imagine the sense of bewilderment I felt with LANs, WANs, SANs, RJ-45s, DHCP, CRMs and IPs. But at the time, I was not the one spending thousands of dollars on my infrastructure, my client was. So it was far more important for them to “get it” than it was for me since they were writing the check!

The same holds true in the real estate world. I think this concept is lost on many agents as we take for granted the jargon we use both with our colleagues and our clients. Granted, we are not the ones making our most significant investment of our lives but we ARE, however, being held responsible (literally or figuratively) for the welfare of our client’s decisions. There are plenty of terms and phrases in real estate that would be cause for pause for most thinking people. I’d like to shed a little light on a few of them here and would welcome any additions folks might want to add to the list. (We’ll add them to our blog!)

Listing. This can be short for “listing agreement," which is the contract between the seller and the broker to market the home and arrange the sale.

“Is that listing for the Robie house signed?” In the office, this is also used to refer to the home itself. “I have a new listing on Main Street." The long and short of it is that your home, when put up for sale through a broker, is now a “listing."

MLS. This has become far more familiar as the Internet has become THE place for folks to start their real estate search (nearly 90% at last count).

Multiple Listing Service refers to the organization that collects, organizes and redistributes all of the data related to the listings of their members. There are two main MLSs in our area. Northern New England Real Estate Network (NNEREN) covers parts of Maine, Vermont and Massachusetts and all of New Hampshire. Maine Real Estate Information System (MREIS) takes care of the Maine.

As the Internet matures and the public demands it, I think we will start to see the emergence of a single MLS for the whole country. That means we will all have a single resource to retrieve data for listings regardless of where they are located. Don’t hold your breath for that one though, as it is likely a few years out!

REALTOR. I believe this is one of the more commonly misused terms both by real estate professionals and consumers. “Realtor” has become synonymous with a “real estate agent” but that is not always the case. Although some may say the difference is negligible, a Realtor will surely take issue with that. Beyond the fancy gold pin and the monthly meetings, Realtors take pride in their oath that includes being honorable and honest, serving their community and conforming to the code of ethics. Does a pin make you ethical and honest? No. But as a consumer, I appreciate the effort that goes into becoming and maintaining the Realtor status.

CMA. A Competitive Market Analysis is a report see ROBIE page 50

Get away from it all on the ‘other Kezar’ Today’s Home of the Week is a two-bedroom camp situated on Kezar Pond in Fryeburg.

FRYEBURG — This week's home is located on “The Other Kezar." Kezar Pond, not to be confused with Kezar Lake, is a 1,000-plus-acre lake located in the northeast end of Fryeburg.

This seasonal cottage sits close to the shoreline on 1.75 acres with 300 feet of water frontage including a large sandy beach. The views are spectacular with Mount Washington as a centerpiece.

There is plenty of privacy, with very few camps on the entire lake.

The camp itself is rudimentary with two bedrooms, but the lot is large enough for unlimited expansion and the location is unique for the area.

The environment at Kezar Pond is more like a North Woods experience with kayaking and canoeing, smallhorsepower boat fishing or a Sunfish or Hobie Cat as the principal activities on the lake. Hiking trails abound in the area, and cross-country skiing here is another world.

If you “really really” want to get away from it all and you love the hidden secrets of Mother Nature in her full glory, join the few who now share that experience on Kezar Pond.

Bill Reilly, of RE/MAX Country Living in Fryeburg, is the listing agent for the home, which is priced at $225,000. He can be reached at (207) 890-6587.

There is 300 feet of water frontage, and a view of Mount Washington.

ROBIE from page 49

that details the prices of homes that have sold, are for sale or have been removed from the market after not selling. The goal here is to provide the seller with a ballpark idea of what the market will bear for a home similar to theirs. I think there is some value to a well-done CMA but they should not be taken with too much weight. The opinion and expertise of a qualified agent will be far more valuable than any report. The report might tell you a house just like yours sold for $50,000 less than you were going to ask, but only an agent can tell you the owner’s brother was the one that bought the house and was given the “family” discount!

4B/2B or any combination thereof is simply shorthand for what is contained in the house for “Bedrooms” and “Bathrooms." Although the definitions vary by region, a bedroom typically has a closet and at least one window. The “fractions” of bathrooms includes a “1/2” with just a toilet and sink, a “3/4” adds a shower (stand-up) and the “full” includes a tub.

Fixture. This term caused a little confusion in my

real estate licensing class. It is basically anything of value that is “permanently attached to or part of real property”. (Real estate is legally called "real property," while movables are called "personal property.") Carpeting, light fixtures (attached to the wall, not just a lamp on a table!), etc. are all included. This topic is also a frequent issue between buyers and sellers so when it doubt, get it in writing!

Contingency. This is a provision of the “agreement” (contract between the buyer and seller) that keeps it from being fully legally binding. An example of a common contingency is the buyer's contractual right to obtain a professional home inspection before purchasing the home. Basically allowing the buyer to back out of the contract if the inspection results do not meet their approval. Though buyers do have the privilege of including pretty much anything they want as added contingencies, these can also nudge a seller into accepting an alternate offer that does not contain as many “outs."

We’ll finish off with “Closing Costs." I think most buyers and sellers have heard the term and know that these are the fees they will be responsible for at

the closing table. One of the biggest mistakes I see buyers make is underestimating what these costs will be. When you include the commission, mortgage fees, attorney fees, escrow, transfer taxes, title insurance and so on, the numbers start to add up. We always recommend a thorough conversation with your lender to educate yourself on these fees and eliminate any surprises at closing.

There are plenty of other terms and phrases included in our language that we tend to throw around with no intention of causing confusion. My advice to all the buyers and sellers out there is ASK! Don’t feel silly that you did not understand something. It is imperative that you are familiar with the terms and conditions of your sale or purchase since this will likely be one of the largest investments of your life. And remember what our friend G.I. Joe always said: “Knowing is half the battle!”

Here’s hoping you have a fantastic and safe Labor Day Weekend!

Refinance your mortgage for rate, payment reductions

FORMER SCHOOLHOUSE PRICE REDUCED

BY ED HARRIGAN One of the biggest reasons homeowners refinance their mortgage is to obtain a lower interest rate and lower monthly payments. By refinancing, the borrower pays off their existing mortgage and replaces it with a new one. This can often be accomplished with a no-points, no-fees loan program, which essentially means at “no cost” to the borrower.

In the no-points no-fees scenario, the mortgage consultant uses rebate monies paid by the lender to pay off non-recurring closing costs for the borrower.

These are “one time” fees such as escrow or attorney fees, title insurance, document preparation, tax service, flood certification, processing and underwriting fees, etc. The borrower is still responsible for recurring fees such as interim insurance, property taxes or insurance policy payments.

Refinancing typically occurs when mortgage interest rates drop significantly, but borrowers with recently improved credit scores (from paying off credit card debt, making mortgage payments on time, etc.) are often candidates for better interest rates as well. If you haven’t checked your credit score in a while, it’s a good time to call a mortgage consultant.

The question most asked is, “But why should I go back into a 30-year loan?”

There are two schools of thought on this subject, see REFINANCE page 55

REFINANCE from page 51

and the mortgage consultant should work hand-in-hand with the borrower’s financial planner to determine what works best for their mutual client.

One option is to take the route of the “same payment” refinance, and actually pay off the loan faster and save money on interest fees in the longrun. If refinancing results in a lower monthly payment, the borrower can still continue making the same payment they made in the original loan, and the extra money will be applied to the principal balance.

For example: Let’s say you have 25 years remaining in your current loan, and you refinance back to a 30-year loan with a slightly lower interest rate, resulting in a payment reduction of $200 per month. (Note: This is just an example. The actual amount could vary.) You could then take that extra $200 per month and apply it toward the principal on the new loan. At this rate, the loan will be paid off in 22 years and 4 months, which is 2 years and 8 months less than the original loan.

On the other hand, if the borrower’s financial planner is a proponent of best-selling author and investment guru Douglas Andrew’s philosophies (see Missed Fortune), he or she may suggest investing the extra money in a side-fund that could earn a better rate of return and grow to the amount of the mortgage (and beyond) in even less time. This method provides excellent liquidity, but having more direct

One option is to take the route of the “same payment” refinance, and actually pay off the loan faster and save money on interest fees in the long-run. If refinancing results in a lower monthly payment, the borrower can still continue making the same payment they made in the original loan, and the extra money will be applied to the principal balance. access to this money may be too tempting for some homeowners.

Regardless of the reason for the refinance, the mortgage consultant will need to know what the existing loan scenario entails, review the homeowner’s long-term goals, and provide a comprehensive spreadsheet that compares and contrasts the various loan programs available.

Bear in mind, refinancing to obtain a lower interest payment could also result in a lower deduction at tax time. The homeowner’s mortgage consultant and financial planner should work hand-in-hand with their mutual client’s best interest in mind.

Mark and Kathelyn Bush sell State Line Store after 25 years CONWAY — The State Line Store in Center Conway has been sold.

Mark and Kathelyn Bush, owners for more than 25 years, have sold the store to MCS Convenience LLC, a local entity from Conway.

In addition to the convenience store, the State Line Store houses a Dunkin' Donuts and an Amato's.

Based upon an ad in a Boston newspaper, Mark and Kathelyn Bush purchase the State Line Store, on Route 302 just west of the Maine border, in April of 1985, with friends and then new business partners, Jim and Anna Cataldo. At the time, Jim Cataldo was merely seeking the advice of his business-minded friend, Mark Bush, about the possibility of purchasing the store. On the ride back to Massachusetts with all their kids, they made a decision to purchase the store jointly and change professions and lifestyles together at the same time.

Once purchased, improvements and changes went into place which included the addition of gas pumps, installing State of New Hampshire lottery machines (everything was scratch tickets up to that point), and expanding product line within the store itself.

Some five years later the Bushs acquired the Cataldos' share, while Jim and Anna Cataldo moved on to purchase the Bottle Keg in Conway. Mark and Kathelyn Bush added a Dunkin’ Donuts shop in the early 1990s, which increased all sales in their store as it then became a “morning stop” for many locals and tourists alike.

“Although we were “flatlanders” coming from Massachusetts to New Hampshire, the locals embraced us right from the beginning and have shown unwavering support of our business venture," Kathelyn Bush said.

"We were never made to feel anything but appreciated, supported and backed by our customers who gave us the needed confidence to make a very major investment risk.”

In 2005 the Bushs ventured to build a brand new 6,000-square-foot facility, replacing what had become somewhat of a business landmark building. see next page

Mark and Kathelyn Bush with David Cianciolo, of Badger Realty. from preceding page

They designed the operational floor plan with help from L.A. Drew Construction, using their past years of experience of operation to create what they felt would be a very efficient and functional business building. Shawn Bergeron Technical Services was also instrumental in the execution of their plan with town of Conway authorities.

The store was a grandfathered commercial operation in a later-classified “residential/agricultural” area as zoning came into place.

The new store was constructed directly behind the existing store. Once time came to move into the new “stateof-the-art facility”, the former store now in its shadow, had to be entered via the back door as the front door was not accessible because it abutted the old store so closely. Many patrons of the old structure were a bit emotional about the loss of the building and wished it could

have been “restored." However a piece of remaining memorabilia, the granite entrance step from the old building, was engraved with dates of operation and the words “New Beginnings” and now proudly remains on the property.

On July 26, 2011, the new facility was sold to MCS Convenience LLC. Meanwhile, Mark and Kathelyn Bush "are riding into retirement and the sunset of their lives with wonderful memories and thoughts of 26 years of happy ownership and great interaction with the folks who supported their endeavors and staff," according to a press release.

"With broad smiles on their faces, they give a huge thank you to all as they return to Murrells Inlet, South Carolina."

David Cianciolo, commercial Realtor of Badger Realty LLC, represented the sellers and buyers as a disclosed dual agent in this sale while Don Nicoletta of Northway Bank orchestrated financing of this sale.

River flow returning to normal for paddlers

BY DAYMOND STEER THE CONWAY DAILY SUN

CONWAY — After surging from Tropical Storm Irene, much of the Saco River has receded. Canoe liveries have already started putting people back on the river.

In early September, normal water flow on the river range from about 300 to 400 cubic feet per second. During Sunday's storm, water flow reached 53,000 cubic feet per second.

By Wednesday afternoon, the section of river used by Saco Bound Canoe and Kayak was down to acceptable flow of 2,250 cfs. The upper level of an acceptable flow for inexperienced paddlers on this stretch of river is in 3,000 cfs. By Friday morning the flow rate was down to 1,340, said Saco Bound owner Bob Tagliaferri who is also executive director of the Saco River Recreational Council in Fryeburg.

"The message is this will be a really nice weekend for paddling," said Tagliaferri. "But people ought to do their homework before they go out."

Acceptable flow rates depend on the section of river, said Tagliaferri.

By Bartlett, 3,000 cfs would be tricky because several factors such as the number of turns in the river, said Tagliaferri.

Weather Channel has been predicting a chance of thunderstorms over the weekend. As of Friday, there's 30 percent chance of rain for Saturday and a 50 percent chance of rain for Sunday.

The section of river where Saco Bound operates fills quickly and empties quickly.

That area is between the Saco Bound building in North Conway to Fiddleheads Campground in Fryeburg, said Tagliaferri.

In contrast, the river stays high for longer below the Old Course, Tagliaferri said. That means the river floods over into bogs and see PADDLERS page 22
