All gifts received will help increase the number of treatment beds at Easter Seals NH, which has been on the front lines of this battle through substance abuse treatment programs at the Farnum Center in Manchester and Farnum North in Franklin. Ray announced the challenge—that if met the end of October, will bring in a total of $200,00— at the recent groundbreaking of Bartlett Cottage in Franklin. Once the renovation of this building is completed in February 2016, Bartlett Cottage will house 20 co-ed treatment beds. Additionally, Easter Seals is in the process of licensing roughly 42 existing beds for residential treatment at Webster Place at Farnum North. To make a gift to the Alex Ray $100,000 Challenge for Recovery by Nov. 1, 2015, please visit easterseals.com/nh. New Boston couple temporarily homeless after fire A second-alarm fire caused heavy damage to a New Boston home Saturday night. Fire Chief Daniel MacDonald says a quick response kept most of the home in repairable condition, and should allow the couple to move back in when repairs are done. When firefighters arrived, they found heavy flames coming from the middle, or “ell” section of the home, where most of the damage occurred. Damage in the main section of the home and the garage was limited mostly to smoke damage. New Boston firefighters received assistance from Bedford, Francestown, Goffstown, Lyndeborough, Milford, and Weare, and at least one other town’s fire departments assisted in fighting the fire, MacDonald said.

Prior to the meal, each "Special Lady," the widow of a Mason was presented with a rose and a reminder that members of the lodge were available to assist them in any way possible. A representative of the Grand Master of NH Masons was present to honor Harmony Lodge veterans Phillip Harvey, Donald Mellen and Phillip Woodbury, Jr. Each was presented with a certificate and pin commemorating their 70 years of service to the fraternity. Each year, Masons in NH present a Community Builders Award to a nonMason, whose commitment to giving something back makes their town a better place to live, work and raise a family. This year's recipient is Herb Frederick, who joined Hillsboro Lions Club in 1977, and has been one of its most active members since. A long-time Chair of the Club's Henry G. Martin Scholarship Fund, Herb oversaw its growth to the point where in 2015, the Club awarded $7,000 in scholarships to H-D graduates. Through his initiative, the Club has given free dictionaries to each third grader, and he regularly participates in the Reading Is Fundamental (RIF) program where the club gives free books to every 1st thru 5th grader, three times a year. When the Hillsboro Food Pantry needed rebuilding, Herb chaired the Club's "Penny Power" campaign which raised over $10,000 for the project. Not satisfied with past accomplishments, Herb has taken up the Lions' International challenge of eradicating Measles worldwide. He hopes to raise $10,000 locally to be matched by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation. Olde Fashioned Christmas Members of Hillsborough Pride have started planning for this year's Olde Fashioned Christmas. The traditional celebration of both the liturgical and commercial aspects of the holiday will be held at venues throughout town on December 5th from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. Businesses who plan to offer open houses or special sales should call Jack Wells@ 464-3318 to be included on the schedule and advertising.

During the study, women who took both hormones and BY SARAH CHAPIN statins had a significantly lower risk of dying of any cause and a moderately lower risk of dying of cardiovascular disease. • • • Many patients with type 2 diabetes in the United States may be discouraged from taking metformin — a proven, oral diabetes medicine — because the U.S. Food and Drug Administration inappropriately labels the drug unsafe for some patients also suffering from kidney problems, researchers report in JAMA Internal Medicine. • • • Obesity guidelines recommend an initial weight loss goal of 5 to 10% of start weight to improve health. A recent study found that patients who received liraglutide 3.0 mg, combined with fewer calories and more physical activitiy, were more than twice as likely to achieve at least that level of weight loss, compared to patients on placebo who made similar lifestyle changes. Patients who achieved that weight loss showed improvements on a number of health markers, compared to those who lost less, and the patients on liraglutide showed greater improvements on measures of blood sugar control and blood pressure. The results were presented at ENDO 2015, the annual meeting of the Endocrine Society in San Diego. • • • Presented as a service to the community by HENNIKER PHARMACY • 603-428-3456 P.O.Box 718 • Proctor Square • Henniker, NH 03242 Pre-Season Sale! 100% Hardwood pellets with incredible Pricing!

Warner NH 603-746-4477 The Newport Town Clerk’s Office in Newport received a moose grant for over $9,800.00 for restoration and preservation of six of Newport’s oldest town record books. Town Clerk Liselle Dufort said they chose the oldest and most damaged books for the project. After the books are restored, a digital copy will go to the NH State Library and the NH State Archives, which is required by the grant. Durfort said they are also getting digital copies to have at Richards Library and Newport Historical Society, and eventually on line. Dufort also thanked all of the people who bought the moose plates, making the grant possible. Moose grants are available to municipalities and NH conservation organizations. www.granitequill.com | October 16, 2015 | The Messenger | Page 5 John Stark-Hopkinton Robotics team begins competition John Stark Regional High School's robotics team, Team 1922 OZRAM, kicked off their season in September welcoming nearly two dozen new freshmen to the team. John Stark partners with Hopkinton Middle High School for the robotics team, which is sponsored by Prototek, MicroDaq.com Ltd, and the Mellen Company. This year the team unveiled a new leadership structure that was developed over the past year. Jacob Walling (Hopkinton) and Lucas Anderson (JSRHS) serve as captains for the team, while Alyssa Robichaud (JSRHS), Nick Mayo (Hopkinton), and Benjamin Trumble (JSRHS) serve as “bucket leaders” for the three main components of the team. Team 1922 OZRAM competes in the FIRST Robotics Competition, where teams have six weeks to design, construct, and program a robot to complete a task that varies from year to year. The 4 New Warner Firefighters Warner Fire Chief Ed Raymond introduced Captain Brian Monaghan, who is the Chair of the Screening Committee. Brian said they have 4 new members that have been voted onto the staff in the last 6 months, Matt Boyer, Mickey Violette (4th generation), Sean Nichols (4th generation) and Lauren Gibbons (EMT). Selectman Clyde Carson thanked the 4 for volunteering. He then asked the Fire Chief for the total number of staff. Ed said the count is at 39. style of the game varies each season, as well as how points are scored, robot constraints, and the field layout. One of the newer trends in the competitions is the idea of "Coopertition" where teams or alliances are working against each other in competition, but can also cooperate and work together in a match to score even more points. This is not a philosophy seen in other sports, which causes the students to really evaluate team strategies all of the time.

Fund established to help purchase a wheelchair van A campaign is underway in Goffstown to help a single mother and her daughter who was born with a rare disorder. Pam TaberMcCarthy’s 15-year-old daughter Maura was born with a chromosomal disorder so rare it has no name. Maura is nonverbal and in a wheelchair but still a big part of the Goffstown school system, but getting around has been more difficult. The family van has 236,000 miles on it and is nearly 9 years old, considered too old to be modified for a wheelchair. Maura’s family and friends hope to raise some of the $30,000 to $40,000 needed for a wheelchair van.

He also announced that “The Roy Malool Family Foundation of Newport has donated $350,000,” which brings the fundraising drive closer to its goal at $600,000.

With the assistance of the Hopkinton, Hillsboro, Bradford Police departments and NH State Police an extensive search was conducted to include the use of a NH State Police dog and the suspects were later located and taken into custody. Arrested were Aaron A. Johnson, 21, of Lynn, MA and Mark A. Arevalo,19, of Malden, MA on charges of Criminal threatening x3, burglary and possession of drugs in a motor vehicle. The investigation is ongoing and more arrests are expected.

Emily Daniels is a student assistance counselor at ConVal and was recognized for her work with the ConVal Substance Abuse Task Force. She developed a diverse group of members representing stakeholders from the high school, middle school, elementary school, physicians, parents, students, police officers, administrators, and MCH. Under Emily's leadership, the Task Force went through a comprehensive and structured strategic planning process. Emily spent a great deal of time building trust and a common language within the group, which allowed the team to have candid conversations about a difficult issue. By the end of the school year, the Task Force completed a complete analysis of our current practices, policies, and procedures. After a two day retreat in the summer, the Task Force committed to a strategic plan that focuses on three important issues; Public Perception, Education, and Policy. Paul Barnes is a custodian at the high school. He is awesome at his job! Anytime you ask him for help he is right there and never complains. He is helpful and considerate and goes out of his way to help students and staff. Paul is an active member of our ConVal community and is present at sporting events, faculty events, and funness outings. He is positive and friendly and has a great sense of humor. Paul takes pride in his work at ConVal and works with everyone to keep our building clean and safe.

Also from The Granite Quill: IN New Hampshire Your Guide to What’s Happening in the Granite State Senior Lifestyles A Guide for New Hampshire’s Active Seniors Publisher’s Perspective by Leigh Bosse Big Brother is everywhere Last week's Messenger contained yet another two stories of government's lack of common sense at all levels and its over reaching into our private lives. The owners of the Francestown Village Store have been told the addition of a table and chairs to their long established deli counter transforms them from a Country Store to a Restaurant, so they must remove them and apply for a variance. This is in tiny Francestown, N.H. More disturbing is the fact that the Hillsboro-Deering School Board is considering a policy that will apply to all non-academic and non-educational surveys and questionnaires "designed to elicit information about a student's social behavior, family life, religion, politics, sexual orientation, sexual activity, drug use, or any other information not related to a student's academics." (emphasis added) If they request it, parents may opt-out their child from the survey or questionnaire. Parents who do not opt-out their child(ren) from the surveys or questionnaires will be deemed to have consented to the survey or questionnaire. (emphasis added) Board member Virginia "Ginks" Leiby objected to the intrusive nature of such surveys and suggested that the policy should have an "Opt-In" provision instead of requiring parents to opt out. Ignoring her suggestion, the Board voted 3-1 with Leiby against and Paul Plater absent to move the proposed policy to second reading at its next meeting. When I inquired at the SAU Office, I was told that the NH School Boards Association drafted the policy for this and other school districts and that the policy mirrors the language of the state law which requires it. RSA 186:11, IX-d simply states that the Board of Education may "Require school districts to adopt a policy governing the administration of non-academic surveys or questionnaires to students." It goes on to say that if it does, the district must provide an "opt-out" provision. It DOES NOT mandate that the district issue those types of personal and intrusive surveys. If the survey does not deal with education or academics, the school has no business asking, and, if it does, an optout provision is inadequate protection. Proponents of school prayer would allow students to opt-out of reciting the prayer, an argument that is rejected by education professionals as leaving a "stigma" on the child opting-out. The same holds true here. Can you imagine the stigma attaching to a family that opts-out of a survey asking about the type and frequency of its drug use or sexual activity. Residents of other towns may want to check to see if their boards have a similar policy. The H-D Board should adopt a policy that simply states: "The HillsboroDeering School District will not participate in such surveys or questionnaires." Henniker man's child porn convictions overturned In 2013, James Houghton, of Henniker, was convicted of 23 counts of possessing child pornography. However, this week the New Hampshire Supreme Court has overturned nine of those convictions and one of the judges believes six others should also be overturned. “In my view, the jury’s determination that any of the individuals depicted in exhibits 1 through 15 is in fact under age 18 must rely on a degree of speculation that is fundamentally at odds with the standard of fact-finder confidence sufficient to support a criminal conviction,” Justice Robert Lynn wrote. Houghton had been sentenced last year, to 27½ years in prison, but the matter has now been sent back to Superior Court for a new sentencing hearing. www.granitequill.com | October 16, 2015 | The Messenger | Page 13 Hillsborough Beautification Program Hillsborough Selectman Alan Urquhart proposes that the Board adopt a Beautification Program for the Town's Blighted Properties. A blighted property is defined as: marked by withering, decay, peeling of paint, wilting or unkempt grass, debris, trash or any unsanitary condition that reduces the assessed value of a house, business, occupied, vacant, abandoned, property or any other condition, omitting a natural catastrophe. His proposal would include any person receiving a financial exemption from the Town of Hillsborough qualifies for The Beautification Program; any property owner, renter or occupant may request the Beautification Program. The Selectmen shall determine the request on the merits of the owner's or occupant's ability to pay, cost of repairs and any other property issue deemed necessary. Once entered into the Beautification Program, a lien would be levied on the property and collected in the same manner as provided by RSA: 80; The Hillsborough Code Enforcement Officer would be authorized to enter any blighted property during reasonable hours. The Officer may recommend to the Board: a. To repair a property at the owner's expense b. Apply the financial town exemption c. Offer a tax credit d. Set date to repay labor and materials e. Request a lean Urquhart stressed that his proposal was for discussion only, and he urged input from all interested persons. The intent is not to punish people or dictate how buildings should be, but to help the overall look of the Town to be more attractive to potential businesses and residents. Franklin decides not to enforce its curfew With the American Civil Liberties Union of New Hampshire threatening a lawsuit and after a federal judge struck down a similar ordinance in Keene, the Franklin city council has reversed itself and decided it will not enforce its recently adopted curfew for those 16 and under.

After selling a record breaking 75 1/2 boxes a year ago, he set a goal of 80 boxes this past year. Once he finished his 80 boxes he upped his goal to 101. (A former classmate had challenged him to sell 101 boxes in a year). Candy Man hit 101 boxes and kept on going. When he had finished the last case that Heidi Welch had to give him, he stood at 127 boxes. At 40 bars per box, that's 5,080 candy bars sold! With the music department receiving $.50 for every $1.00 bar sold, Brandon brought in $2540.00 for his beloved HDHS music department. Along with that, he had $219.42 in donations given to him for a final total of $2,759.42. The money this year helped several students Brandon Lewis to travel to N.Y.C. on the annual music department trip. Brandon sells all around Hillsboro, along with businesses in Keene and Concord. He also has his candy at his sister's P.S.U. college basketball games and Yankee Lanes in Keene where he is on a bowling league. If you see him around, there is usually a box of candy bars with him. Since his sister Tiffany is the new head coach of the HDHS girl's varsity basketball team, you can expect to see him at all her games. His goal for this upcoming year is 130 boxes which he will more than likely meet and surpass. Every bar sold will bring him closer to his new goal. Brandon would like to thank everyone who has bought from him and looks forward to seeing you again this school year.

Warner Exit 9 Roundabout in final stage Warner Town Administrator Jim Bingham has announced that the design phase of the Warner roundabout is nearly complete and the architects will submit their final plan at the end of October. Once the state approves those plans, the town can go out to bid for construction, which should begin in April. Voters approved spending $735,00 to build the roundabout at March’s town meeting. Of that sum, $490,000 will be reimbursed by the State Department of Transportation. www.granitequill.com | October 16, 2015 | The Messenger | Page 15 ContractorsQuality work, great prices Donald Solomon Firewood Haigh Builders Electrician 603-478-5621 Home Repairs & Improvements Additions • Decks • Porches • Roofing • Siding Door & Window Replacement ~ Since 1983 ~ Bill Haigh • 478-3963 Murdough Builders 405 West Main St. Hillsboro, NH Licensed and Insured LLC “Building a Reputation of Quality” • EPA/HUD RRP Certified Renovator • Fully Insured • New Homes • Additions • Remodeling • Sill Replacements • Garages • Barn Restorations 603-478-0436 Fax: 464-5704 • Keith A.

NEC Profesor teaches at Henniker School New England College Assistant Professor of Biology James Newcomb, Ph.D, spent two mornings at the Henniker Community School leading instruction in the seventh grade science class with HCS teacher Sara Richards. The activities related to the human body, specifically the eye. In addition to instruction on eye anatomy and participating in a variety of vision tests, the highlight for many was the dissection of a sheep’s eye under the direction of Dr. Newcomb. “I really enjoyed working (L to R) Daniel Hilyard, Elijah Day, Orry Murwith Sara's seventh grad- dough, Dr. Newcomb, Ms. Richards ers and exploring some of the aspects of vision and how humans see the world,” said Professor Newcomb about the experience. “The students expressed an abundance of curiosity with so many great questions, and a high level of enthusiasm to participate in the various activities that Sara and I had planned for them. Science teachers like Sara should be commended for developing strong scientific knowledge and skills, and curiosity, especially in our youth,” he continued. When asked why he comes to the Henniker School, Professor Newcomb said, “I relish the opportunity to witness and foster the excitement that kids in elementary and middle school often naturally have for science. I am also acutely aware of the dearth of American youths choosing science as a career. In this increasingly complex and technological world, it is imperative for our country to develop young minds with a keen interest and aptitude for science.” “Having a college in our (literal) back yard and professors like Dr. Newcomb, who are so generous with their time and resources, is a benefit most elementary/middle schools don’t have the option of accessing,” said HCS Teacher Sara Richards. “We are most fortunate and thankful for the additional learning opportunities available to our students. Having members of our community share their enthusiasm and knowledge with students fosters students' curiosity to learn,” she said. Big Oct. Savings!
