Vice Chairman Nicholas Campasano asked
if the Goffstown Selectmen would be taking
a position on the Petition Article to enact a
Town Manager form of government. Campasano said that this article would change the
form of government and he felt that at least
a public statement from the Board needs to
be made. This is a substantial article, he said.
Selectman Peter Georgantas agreed, saying
the Board needed to have a position on this
subject. He added this article will affect how
the Board of Selectmen will operate in the
future.
Campasano said when this came up several
years ago, public hearings were held and those
in attendance were overwhelmingly against
this change. Chairman Collis Adams agreed
there should be public outreach on this issue,
informing the public on the difference between the responsibilities of a town manager
and a town administrator. Georgantas asked if
the Board of Selectmen, as a governing body,
should have a recommendation, to which
Adams replied that he is not comfortable with
that idea. Georgantas argued that the Board
had the experience and shouldn’t it have a recommendation for this, but Adams responded
that the Board of Selectmen will not go away
under a town manager form of government.
Town Administrator Susan Desruisseaux
agreed saying the Board would become policy
makers and would rely upon the town manager to implement those policies.
Adams said the Board’s primary duty
would be to educate the public on the pros and
cons of the article.

Goffstown School District tests Advanced Network Equipment
The Information Technology Department at the Goffstown School District
played an instrumental role in testing an
advanced new networking device that was
announced today by NETGEAR®, Inc., a
global manufacturer of networking equipment. The device that the district beta
tested during its development phase over
the past several months is a new all-in-one
business-class chassis switch called the
ProSAFE M6100. The M6100 is a modular
core-networking switch designed to provide high throughput and enhanced capabilities for improved network performance
in businesses and education environments.
Last summer the District was in the
process of designing a new 10-gigabit network infrastructure to prepare the district
for the increased demands of upcoming
online testing programs and the exponential growth in the use of wireless devices.
One of the vendors that the district was
working with was Netgear.
“When we saw the sophistication of
the Goffstown network, with numerous
VLAN configurations, multiple fiber-linked
IDFs, cutting edge 802.11ac wireless, and
the wide variety of clients that they support, we realized that Goffstown would
be a great real-world candidate for the
ProSAFE M6100 beta test,” said Randy
Keener, Netgear regional sales manager.
“We weren’t disappointed. The Goffstown
team was well prepared, enthusiastic and
was one of the most responsive participants in the program.”
The flexibility and scalability of
the M6100 allowed us to consolidate
our switched network to deliver high
bandwidth and enhanced management
efficiencies,” explained Gary Girolimon,
the Goffstown School District’s director of
information technology.
Netgear flew in a team of network
engineers from the west coast to assist in
the deployment of the M6100 at Goffstown
High School. The district’s responsibilities
included installing and testing a variety of
firmware revisions and providing regular
feedback on the functionality of the device
in dealing with VLAN management, layer
3 routing, access control and various
protocols.
“The new Netgear equipment has
enhanced the usability of our network,
providing for public WiFi access to the In-
ternet in tandem with our private wireless,
and given us the ability to broadcast live
video from any part of the Goffstown High
School Building directly to the Goffstown
Community Television studio," added
Bourget.
The Goffstown School District was one
of 12 beta sites worldwide, one of three in
the U.S., and was the only K-12 school district selected for the program. At the end of
the test period the Goffstown School District was able to keep the equipment free of
charge. The Netgear ProSAFE M6100 core
switch is now the central device at the core
of the district’s network. This program
saved taxpayers thousands of dollars.
Participating in the deployment of the Netgear ProSAFE M6100 are (left to right) Goffstown
School District director of information technology Gary Girolimon; Netgear engineer Desi Whelan;
Netgear regional sales manager Randy Keener; Goffstown network technology technician Geoff
Johnson; Netgear engineer Derek Falberg; Goffstown tech support specialist Michael Engelsen;

White Birch seniors enjoyed a nostalgic tour.
Area seniors tour Ayer & Goss facility
Carolyn and Skip McKean recently hosted 25 seniors from White
Birch Community Center and invited them to visit the break room
at the Ayer and Goss garage. This is no ordinary break room - there
are wonderful displays of vintage articles from days gone by- including a wooden telephone booth, a jukebox, a treadle singer sewing
machine, the soda fountain counter from the Henniker Pharmacy,
along with many other interesting collectables from days gone by.
In another section of the garage, we saw their amazing collection of
beautifully restored antique trucks.
Goffstown Police warn about gas scammers
Goffstown police are warning residents that a man and woman
are telling people they’ve run out of gas and asking for a few dollars
so they can get where they are going, according to police. A concerned Goffstown resident told authorities that in talking with some
friends, they realized they’d all been duped by “gas scammers” in the
past month. They were approached by either a man or woman asking for gas money at the Irving station on Mast Road; Cumberland
Farms in the village; Hannaford’s, Wa-Toy and at Wal-Mart and
Target, both in Hooksett.
Petition seeks withdrawal from SAU #43
Having failed to convince the Newport School Board to sponsor
it, residents Bert Spaulding Sr. and Todd Fratzel, have submitted a
petition to be placed on the School District warrant, asking voters
if they would like to study the potential withdrawal from SAU 43.
Requiring 25 signatures, Spaulding and Fratzel's contains 57 signatures. Calling the SAU "dysfunctional," Spaulding said by getting
the article on the warrant now, if approved, the process would take
about two years to complete.
Antrim Selectmen agree to Solar array
On Tuesday, the Antrim Selectmen signed a one-year lease
agreement with N.H. Solar Garden of Stratham, allowing the company to build a solar array on the site of the town's former sewer lagoons. Although the agreement allows the developer to ready the site
for building, the final decision hinges on voter approval of a warrant
article asking the town to authorize the board to enter into a longer,
20-year lease agreement with N.H. Solar Garden. If approved, Solar
Garden will pay a lease payment of $8,000 per year to build the
solar array on town land. The town would also have the option to
purchase electricity from the solar array at a rate of 1 cent cheaper
than the current 10.6 cents per kilowatt the town is currently paying.
According to Chair Mike Genest, it would be about $4,300 in savings
per year, based on the town's current energy usage. Both the town
and N.H. Solar Garden would have the option, at the end of the 20year lease, to extend it for a five-year period.
Newport High School crowns Rock-Paper-Scissors Champ
By Becky Nelson, SAU #43
Public Relations Specialist
“Just for fun and to help the students
relax a little bit during stressful times around
the holidays,” said Newport High School
mentor and teacher, James Faulkner in
reference to a recent in-school competition of
the age-old game of “Rock-Paper-Scissors.”
Participants in the tourney had a lot at stake,
as the winner heads off to a R-P-S tournament at Derryfield School in Manchester on
Sunday, January 25 at the Derryfield School
Gymnasium. Dozens, if not hundreds of participants and observers are expected.
It’s kind of fun for a few minutes, even as
an adult, to challenge a buddy to a simplistic
game and cover their “rock” (fist) with your
paper (flattened hand) to win or have your
scissors (second and third fingers extended
from your fist) cut their “paper” to win a
round. But when their “rock” crushes your
“scissors," the tides turn and your challenge
is lost. But at the high school recently, this
challenge got serious when Newport High
School champion, Tyler Maheu (Grade 11),
earned the right to head to the statewide
tourney.
“This is a tournament we hold simply
to send someone to the state ‘Rock-PaperScissors’ tournament, and have some fun,”
said Faulkner. “What we hope students get
out of this is a fun distraction from school
and something that anybody can participate
in,” said Faulkner.
If you really pressed the issue, it can
be said that strategy may play a role in the
winner taking the game. Students may learn
something about watching an opponent’s
face for clues, honing their sensory and observation skills and fine tuning fine motor
skills to “throw” or “shoot” their choice just
a millisecond later than the opponent as
the brain synapses fire to cover or break or
cut as appropriate. According to Derryfield
School’s website, the tournament, now in
its second year, was the brainchild of a student set to graduate two years hence, and
is completely run with student volunteers
who garner donations, man concession
booths, invite schools to participate, set
up the tournament, provide referees and
send invitations to schools across the state.
Cheer squads for competitors are welcome.
According to event mentor, Ben Dougherty,
Head of the Upper School of Derryfield,
“every once in a while it is important not
to take yourself too seriously and just have
fun. Rock, paper, scissors…shoot!” Good
luck at the finals, Tyler. May the best student win.

If all eye doctors prescribed the less expensive of
two drugs to treat two common eye diseases of older
adults, taxpayer-funded Medicare plans could save
$18 billion over a 10-year period, say researchers at
the University of Michigan in the June issue of Health
Affairs. Further, patients with the wet form of macular
degeneration or who have diabetic macular edema
could keep $4.6 billion in co-pays in their wallets, and
BY SARAH CHAPIN the rest of the U.S. health care system could save $29
billion in private insurance payments and other costs, according to the
team. The reason for the dramatic savings: bevacizumab (marketed under
the name Avastin) costs $55 per treatment and ranibizumab (trade name
Lucentis) runs $2,023 for each dose — nearly 40 times more expensive.
Yet, the drugs have similar efficacy in treating these conditions, and both
have fairly comparable side effect and safety profiles when used to treat
eye disease, the researchers say.
•
•
•
Bevacizumab originally was created as a cancer-fighting drug, given in
much higher doses to slow the development of blood vessels, thereby
inhibiting the growth of tumors. In diabetic macular edema and one form
of macular degeneration, it is the abnormal growth of blood vessels in
the retina that causes blindness. Used in the eye, the medication targets
the bleeding and swelling that occurs in the retina and shrinks the blood
vessels. For a number of years physicians have used bevacizumab to treat
these eye conditions off label, meaning prescribed for a use other than the
one originally intended. In its full dose for cancer treatment (at 150 times
the concentration of the ocular injections), the drug is more expensive, but
the cost goes down when reduced to smaller doses for the eye. The same
drug company that manufactured bevacizumab created ranibizumab,
which was approved by the FDA as a drug targeted at these eye diseases.
In doing so, the company attached the higher price to the new drug.

Members of the NH Rebellion stopped at Hillsborough's Smith Church to eat
on their way to Concord.
The NH Rebellion pauses in Hillsborough
Members of the "NH Rebellion" stopped at the Smith Memorial Congregational Church in Hillsborough for lunch during their
walk from Keene to Concord. They're trying to bring awareness to
the movement spearheaded by the non-profit organization "Open
Democracy." Following the lead of the late "Granny D," the group
consists of individuals dedicated to getting big money out of politics
and felt that the "Live Free or Die" state of New Hampshire was a
perfect place to spread their message. After a panel discussion at
NEC on Monday, they continued to Concord where they held a rally
on the State House lawn to hopefully persuade legislators to pass
laws prohibiting big money in politics.
Goffstown gets Homeland Security Grant
The Goffstown Selectmen recently held a Public Hearing to
accept and expend a 2014 Homeland Security Competitive Grant
for $11,002 to purchase ballistic equipment and trauma supplies for
firefighters and EMTs responding to violent incidents. Fire Chief
O’Brien said there has been an uptick of violent situations where
there has been a mass number of victims, i.e., Sandy Hook and
Aurora, Colorado. Via studies it was found that many victims may
have been saved had they been treated rapidly. There is a movement throughout the country and world to provide Fire and EMS
personnel with ballistic equipment and trauma supplies to operate
efficiently in those types of environments. Goffstown Fire will be
working with NH EMS on training and that will be integrated into
the annual EMT refresher training. After a short hearing, the board
unanimously accepted the grant.
Henniker house fire quickly extinguished
Firefighters from four communities needed about an hour to extinguish a blaze that destroyed a small house at 137 Lone Pine Road
early last Thursday morning. Flames were seen shooting high above
the single story home, which was unoccupied at the time. According
to Henniker Fire Chief Steve Burritt, the fire was started by a heater
used to defrost frozen pipes. The property is owned by Eugene Monroe, 80, who was visiting his sister the night of the fire. His son, Lane
Monroe, said barking dogs woke him and his roommates at the main
house next door. Monroe said the two buildings share a water supply
so to prevent frozen pipes they had a heat lamp in there.
Four survive Bradford house fire Monday
About 50 firefighters were called to battle a Bradford house fire
on West Meadow Road around 1 a.m. Monday night. The family of
four escaped safely after a teenage daughter woke up and discovered the fire. When firefighters arrived, they found heavy fire in the
back of the house. According to Fire Chief Mark Goldberg, the cause
remains under investigation, but officials believe it started in the
rear porch area.
Duncan-Jenkins Trust celebrates its 13th Annual Recognition Dinner
A large crowd gathered in the HDMS
cafetorium last Thursday to celebrate
the 13th Annual Ducan-Jenkins Trust
Recognition Dinner. The Trust, generously
funded in the will of the late Sally Jenkins
provides student and teacher enrichment opportunities and scholarships for
the Washington and Hillsboro-Deering
Schools.
For 2014 the Trust granted $74,550
for student enrichment programs. The
richness of these programs included an 8th
Grade Trip to Washington, D.C., Music in
the Parks Festival, "Slapstick Science" at
the Washington Elementary School, No
Strings Marionettes, a field trip to the Currier Museum of Art, and Colonial Overnights at Plimoth Plantation.
It also gave $100,350 for teacher
enrichment programs which provided
opportunities for teachers to travel during
the summer to enhance their skills through
workshops and training sessions and to
participate in special programs related to
their teaching.
As a result of these grants, teachers
were able to attend a variety of profes-
sional conferences throughout the United
States, and to travel to Spain, France,
Scandinavia, and the Canadian Maritimes.
The scholarship program in 2014
awarded $99,460 in scholarships to a total

Vehicle break-ins in Goffstown and Bow
Goffstown and Bow Police have issued warnings for residents
to keep their vehicles locked in light of reports of people attempting
to break into parked cars. On Tuesday, Goffstown Police received a
report of two men in dark clothing walking down Henriette Street
from Edmond Street. The two men were reportedly seen approaching vehicles and pulling on door handles to see if vehicles were
locked. Authorities also noticed an increase of thefts from vehicles
during the overnight of Jan. 15 in the area of Tanager, Goldfinch
and Eagle’s Nest roads. On Wednesday, Bow Police issued a news
release saying they are seeking the public’s assistance in identifying
individuals responsible for a dozen thefts from vehicles over the past
month. Two incidents were reported on Tuesday.
Henniker Selectmen and School Board at odds over playground
A large contingent from the Henniker
Community School and the Tucker Free
Library attended the Henniker Selectmen's meeting Tuesday night asking the
Board's permission to indicate that the
town owns part of the land on which the
school hopes to erect a new playground,
on grant applications.
With Chair Kris Blomback away on
business, Vice Chair Leo Aucoin ran the
meeting. Aucoin made it clear that this
discussion was limited to the Selectmen
cooperating solely on potential grant
applications, and not on the Board's
support of the playground project. Fresh
from his attendance at the School Board's
Budget Meeting at which he challenged
the Board's placing $90,000 for the
playground in the operating budget
rather than as a separate warrant article,
Aucoin acknowledged that this was not
the proper forum for that discussion, but
promised to return to the School's Budget
Hearing in February.
Although supportive of grants that did
not include taxpayer funds, board member Bob French made it clear that he did
not support the project and Tia Hooper
questioned the use of taxpayer funds in
the school's budget.
Tree Farm in Supreme Court
The case of Stephen Forster d/b/a Forster's Christmas Tree Farm v. The Town of
Henniker is scheduled for oral argument

19th at 9:00 a.m. Forster is appealing the
Henniker Planning Board's ruling barring
weddings at the farm. It is expected that
several NH farmers will be in attendance
to hear this case based on the state's definition of "Agrotourism."

School Board opposes school closing warrant articles
At their Tuesday meeting the ConVal
School Board discussed the two petitioned
warrant articles dealing with declining
enrollments and decided not to support
either. The decision to not support the
petition to close Great Brook School was
almost immediate with little discussion.
Although the decision was to oppose the
second petition, there was some discussion with some members suggesting they
should be open to closing an elementary
school, if the number of students in any
grade becomes too small to provide a good
education.

Publisher’s Perspective
by Leigh Bosse
The Good, The Bad & The Ugly
The School Board at Henniker Community School wants to construct a new
playground estimated to cost $225,000 to
$275,000. That's the Good.
The Board is asking taxpayers to fund
the initial $90,000 in hopes the remainder can be raised with donations. That's
the Bad. Why should taxpayers be out
$90,000 if those lofty donation goals are
not reached? Complicating the issue, the
boundary line dispute between the school
the town and the Grange has not been
settled so school officials don't even know
if they have enough land to construct the
playground on.
To raise those taxpayer dollars, the
Board has "buried" the $90,000 in the op-
erating budget as "maintenance" instead
of placing it in a separate warrant article.
And, that's the Ugly. Some Board members admit doing it that way because they
fear voters will reject a warrant article. By
making the $90,000 a budget line item,
they get to build a playground despite
what voters may think.
Members of the Henniker School
Board are honorable people and this ploy
is beneath them. This intentional bypass
of voter approval is an insult to Henniker
taxpayers and a slap in the face to the
democratic process. The Board should immediately reverse its decision and include
the playground as a separate warrant
article.
Letters to the Editor
This letter is in response to an article
that appeared in the January 16, 2015
edition of The Messenger. The Henniker
School Board feels that both the tone and
the content of their budget workshop were
misrepresented in that article. Minutes of
the Budget Work Session are on the SAU 24
website and reflect the official proceedings
at the meeting.
The playground project has been an
ongoing conversation at Henniker School
Board meetings. Superintendent of Schools,
Dr. Lorraine Tacconi-Moore presented
the proposed playground expenditure of
$90,000 at both the School Board meeting on December 3, 2014 and again at the
beginning of the Budget Work Session
on January 8, 2015. Expenditures for the
playground were discussed in great length at
both sessions.
The playground inspection report that
was conducted in August of 2014 found
concerns that required a direct response
from the Board. The report cited the main
wooden/composite structure, as well as
other structures within the playground, as
containing several areas of concern and
recommended replacement. The Board
understood that replacement of the playground could not be deferred and carefully
considered whether to replace individual
components in a piecemeal manner or to redesign and replace the existing playground
utilizing both taxpayer dollars and funding
from grants and donations. The removal of
the main structure without any replacement
is estimated to cost $20,000 and severely
limits play opportunities for the students.
When the Board had finished its discussion of the proposed budget at their work
session, Chairman Gary Guzouskas opened
the floor for questions or concerns from the
public in attendance. When asked why the
expenditure for the playground was placed
in the operating budget as opposed to a
separate warrant article, Mr. Guzouskas explained that if the voters rejected a specific
warrant article, then the project could not be
revisited for at least a year and no monies,
including donations or funding received
through grants, could be expended during
that time period.
When the Board was asked about other
cost-saving measures such as program
reductions, Member Zach Lawson asked
if the audience had specific programs in
mind. Principal Katherine McBride stated
that all current programs are required for
school approval from the NHDOE with the
exception of Spanish and Chinese, which are
both part-time offerings and therefore have
minimal fiscal impact.
The Henniker School Board always
has operated in a transparent fashion and
invites the public to attend their meetings
to gain a full understanding of the issues the
school faces. 

Capitol Comments
New Hampshire House and Senate
policy committees face very busy calendars
for the foreseeable future as state legislators
begin to fulfill their
obligation to give
each of the hundreds
of bills proposed
this year a fair and
open public hearing.
Thanks to a wellmaintained General
Court web site (www.
gencourt.state.nh.us),
anyone can access the same basic data lawmakers receive to prepare for these hearings
and keep a close eye on how each piece of
legislation is progressing through the 2015
session.
On this web site you’ll find separate
“dashboards” for the House and Senate
where you can open the weekly calendar for
either body to see what issues will be worked
on in the coming week. Above those, you’ll
spot a “State Legislation Dashboard” where
you can research and track the individual
bills referenced in the calendars.
For instance, by going to the Senate
Dashboard and opening the current Senate
Calendar, you’ll see all of the public hearings
scheduled for the coming week, and that
one of the committees I serve on, the Committee on Energy and Natural Resources,
will consider SB 38, a bill establishing a
commission to develop a land conservation plan. Then, by moving up to the State
Legislation Dashboard and typing “SB38”
into the search box you’ll be sent to a separate page that will track this bill through the
entire session. Here you can read the text
of the bill and learn that I am one of the cosponsors of this legislation.
SB 38 is based on the premise that
“adequate protection of New Hampshire’s
natural assets is essential to maintaining
and safeguarding the state’s economy and
character for today’s population and for
future generations.” The bill would create
a commission representing conservation
groups, sportsmen, businesses, the hospitality industry, agriculture, motorized and nonmotorized trail users, several state agencies
and many other stakeholders. If the bill
passes and the commission is created, its as-
By District 8 State Senator Jerry Little
signment will be to identify specific natural
resource protection priorities requiring further state investment over the next 5 years
to ensure that we all continue to enjoy:
*Adequate quality and quantity of water
supplies for domestic, industrial and recreational uses,
*Adequate areas of productive soils to
support current and future agricultural
activities,
*Adequate forests to sustain production
of forest products for present and future
generations,
*Adequate core habitat and linkage
areas to maintain our diverse native plants
and animals,
*Adequate land base to support motorized and non-motorized recreational activities, and,
*Protection of scenic vistas and land
with unique physical features that support
the state’s quality of life and a strong tourism economy.
One of the reasons most of us choose to
live in New Hampshire is a strong appreciation for our diverse and beautiful natural
environment. At the same time, we need an
equally strong and diverse business environment to create the opportunities and jobs
that allow us to afford to continue to work
and live in these wonderful surroundings.
The challenge is to find the right balance,
and that’s what SB 38 seeks to do.
Would you like to communicate with me
or any other lawmaker about SB 38? Head
back to the web site where you’ll find links
for our telephone numbers, as well as postal
and email addresses.
Finally, a quick note of congratulations
to my colleague, District 3 State Senator
Jeb Bradley of Wolfeboro, who last week
completed what avid hikers call The Grid.
By hiking to the top of Mount Adams on a
bitterly cold and windy but sunny January
day he became the 49th person in history to
climb all of New Hampshire’s 48 mountains
over 4,000 feet high in each month. Forty
eight mountains times 12 months equals
576 peaks bagged!
Senator Bradley says he does some of his
best legislative problem solving on the trail.
I’ll keep that in mind the next time someone
tells me to go take a hike.

12-year-old Brett Patnode of Weare received another Christmas present this month. Brett's dad, Gene, was driving Brett and a
friend to an outdoor rink in Goffstown when the net and their four
hockey sticks fell out of the back of the truck. When they returned
to find them, the net was there, but the sticks were gone. The next
day, Brett made a cardboard sign and put it where they thought
the sticks may have fallen out. Seeing the sign, the Manchester
Monarchs' head equipment manager got the Monarchs to deliver
six new sticks tailing with tape and pucks to the Patnode's home.

Telephone survey supports Mount Sunapee
A telephone survey conducted by Mount Sunapee Resort shows
strong support for the resort’s planned West Bowl expansion in the
Mount Sunapee State Park. “We’re very encouraged by the results of
the survey,” said Jay Gamble, the resort’s vice president and general
manager. “We wanted to know what the people of the region felt,
because we care what our community thinks.”
Opposition to the expansion from the group Friends of Mount
Sunapee say the poll was a deceptive “push poll,” and said its results
should not guide Department of Resources and Economic Development officials who are presently studying the proposal.
The resort’s 2014 master development plan, which must be
approved by DRED and other state agencies, calls for new skiing in
the West Bowl in the form of four new top-to-bottom trails and a
5,100-foot high-speed detachable quad chairlift.
Resort officials have said there are no plans for housing developments on the state-owned land, but opponents want a public
guarantee that no housing developments will be built on the lands.
The Friends group says the plan “would introduce private resort development to the mountain’s western slopes,” a claim resort officials
say is false, as there are no housing plans in the proposal.

Large crowd attends U.S. Senator Kelly Ayotte's Goffstown Town Hall
U.S. Sen. Kelly Ayotte, R-N.H., held
a town hall-style meeting at the Odd
Fellows Hall in Goffstown last Friday.
She began the meeting by informing the
crowd that the federal debt had reached
$18 trillion, comparing it to the cost of 40
gallons of New Hampshire maple syrup
for every person in the United States. “It
took two parties to get us this far into
debt,” she said. “It’s going to take two
parties working together to get us out of
this.” Ayotte also warned her constituents that Medicare would be insolvent by
2030, and Social Security by 2033.The
senator strongly condemned the recent
release of five Yemeni detainees from
Guantanamo Bay, saying that many of
those released from Guantanamo have
gotten “back in the battle of terrorism
against us.”“The notion that we would
send Gitmo detainees (back) to Yemen
is crazy,” Ayotte said, saying that Yemen
is the center of al-Qaeda in the Arabian
Peninsula and “the wild, wild West for
terrorists.”
AG clears Henniker officer
The Attorney General’s report
indicates that Henniker Police Officer
Stephen Dennis was justified in shooting
a man who was committing a robbery
in November, according to the Attorney
General’s Office, even though it turned
out the attacking man had a butter knife,
not a gun, in his possession.
Senator Ayotte answered questions on a variety of topics.
