Levine resigns as New London Administrator
Jessie Levine, New London administrator.
become the assistant town manager in Hanover. Levine has served in New London
for the past 10 years.
In her letter of resignation, she wrote
“New London has meant the world to me
and I owe a debt of gratitude to everyone I
worked with over the years.
The Selectmen were unanimous in
their good wishes for Levine’s future.
Chair Tina Helm said “in the two and a
half years that I have worked closely with
Jessie, she has been an amazing mentor and teacher to me. I wish her all the
best.” Peter Bianchi, who came onto
the Board of Selectmen in 2010, said “I
have a great deal of respect for the work,
dedication and professionalism that Jessie
has brought to the Town of New London.
I wish her only the best in her future
Antrim amendments pulled from warrant
The Antrim Planning Board has
removed eight proposed zoning amendments from the warrant for voter consideration because of a procedural error. The
Planning Board action was in response to
claims that the zoning ordinance amendments were “illegal.”
The amendments, which voters had
expected to vote on, include a definition
of a wind-energy facility, adding principal
permitted use for a wind energy facility in
the Highway Business and Rural Conservation Districts, permitting personal
wireless service facilities or cell towers in
all districts and adding excavation sites as
principal permitted uses in the Highway
Business and Rural Districts.
According to Town Planner Peter
Moore, there was insufficient information in the required notifications which
were published. Other procedural errors
were cited in the letter, but Moore said
the notification was the main issue that
caused the amendment to be removed
from this year’s ballot.
Lawyer Michael Donovan, who represents residents Richard and Loranne
Block, sent the town a separate letter
citing these issues, as well as not having
enough time between hearings and not
providing information to the public in a
timely fashion.

moves forward, we wish her the best in

The board plans to define a search
process for her replacement at its next
meeting.
WikiLeaks raid in Hancock
FBI agents seized several computers at a
Hancock residence in late January as part of
a nationwide investigation of online attacks
against major companies in the wake of the
WikiLeaks controversy. Hancock Police Chief
Andrew Wood said on Thursday that he and
two Hancock officers assisted several FBI
agents with the execution of a search warrant
at the residence where multiple computers
were seized.
Abolish water & sewer dept?
A petitioned warrant article caused the
most debate at Sunapee’s deliberative session. Cindy Currier organized and submitted an article proposing that the existing
water and sewer commission be abolished,
the water and sewer department be placed
under the Board of Selectmen and the town
manager, and an advisory water and sewer
board be created.
Selectman Steve White said there
would be considerable savings for the town
through the sharing of equipment and
personnel, but Chairman Fred Gallup cautioned “It’s not broke, let’s not try to fIx it.”
A verbal vote showed a lack of support
for the article, which requires a three-fifths
majority for approval.

Newport mustaches set Guinness world record
They needed 251 mustached men to
break the world record, but organizers had
no reason to fear as 462 wiskered wonders
turned out for Newport’s “Great Mustache
Contest” as part of the town’s 95th Winter
Carnival last Saturday. To be listed in the
Guinness Book of World Records, each
man had to stand in line for up to two hours
while they signed in before two official
observers, were photographed, and filmed
before a panel of mustache judges.
Steve Smith, general manager of WCNL
Radio, who coordinated the event with
the Newport Recreation Department, was
overwhelmed with the response. The mustache competition was just one of several
events in the 95th Newport Winter Carnival,
including skijoring, a “strongman competition” for men and women, ice skating on the
common, and many other family events like
ski jumping and skating.

Publisher’s Perspective
Hillsboro-Deering Taxpayers have been
given a bad rap for supposedly failing to
adequately fund their schools. This, despite
the fact that H-D school budgets have
INCREASED by approximately $500,000
each year for the last several years and this
year by almost $800,000.
While attending the John Stark Deliberative Session last Wednesday, I learned
that H-D spends more per pupil on education than any other district in the area.
Here is the spending per pupil for area
schools.
Hillsboro-Deering.........................$12,967
Kearsarge Regional.......................$12,830
John Stark Regional.....................$12,102
ConVal Regional...........................$11,850
Although H-D consistently spends
more per student than our neighbors, our
students are ranked at the bottom of any
comparisons. H-D schools have failed to
achieve Adequate Yearly Progress in Math
and Reading for the last several years.
Hillsboro-Deering proves the old adage
that you can’t solve our education crisis by
throwing more money at it. The Federal
Government and State of New Hampshire
have a program that Schools In Need of Improvement, like H-D, qualify for. It provides
the following alternatives for underperforming schools to turn things around.
TURNAROUND MODEL: Replace the
principal, screen existing school staff, and
rehire no more than half the teachers; adopt
by Leigh Bosse
a new governance structure; and improve
the school through curriculum reform, professional development, extending learning
time, and other strategies.
RESTART MODEL: Convert the school
or close it and re-open it as a charter school
or under an education management organization.
SCHOOL CLOSURE: Close the school
and send the students to higher-achieving
schools in the district.
TRANSFORMATION MODEL: Replace
the principal and improve the school
through comprehensive curriculum reform,
professional development, extending learning time, and other strategies.
These alternatives may be drastic, but it
is now time to demand accountability from
our teachers and administrators. Superintendent Genovese and Principals Tremblay
and McAloon are new to the district so we
need to give them this year to demonstrate
improvement. Failing that, changes need
to be made. Teachers and Administrators deemed to be “Outstanding” need to
be retained and rewarded. Those deemed
“satisfactory” need to be given a warning
that improvement is needed or they will be
let go. Those ranked “less than satisfactory”
need to be told their contracts will not be
renewed.
Satisfactory is not satisfactory. It’s time
to demand excellence. Our children deserve
no less.
OPINION letters to the editor
Dear Editor:
The InCasts and RBA (ecumenical
junior and senior high youth groups at
Smith Congregational Church) would like
to thank everyone who made our “Superbowl Subs and More” fundraiser such a
big success. A huge thank you goes to Kiki
Mauridis (and staff) at Hillsboro House
of Pizza - for the fifth year in a row, they
helped us make their truly delicious subs
right there and charged us an unbelievably low price for the ingredients, which
allowed us to make once more a recordbreaking total ($1704) this year. We thank
them for their continuing generosity to
the community (please patronize Hillsboro House of Pizza and let them know
how much we all appreciate them!).
Many thanks also go to Fantini Baking
Company, Carmel Produce, and Costas
Provisions of Boston for providing rolls,
produce, and meat for the subs, Shaw’s
Supermarket for the containers for bean

Hillsborough accident brings felony charges
The Hillsborough Police recently filed
charges against Stephan Nagle for Felony
Driving Under the Influence. Investigation
and blood test results have indicated that
Nagle’s blood alcohol level was above the
legal limit at the time of a January 19th accident on Route 9.
At that time, Hillsborough Police and
Fire Departments were dispatched to a motor vehicle accident on Rte 9 where a 2010
Infinity SE, operated by Nagle, crossed the
center line and struck a 2006 Dodge pick up
truck head on.
Nagle, of Hingham, MA, was transported to the hospital with serious injuries.
His 10-year-old daughter was transported
to the hospital with severe injuries. Dana
Elliott of Pittsfield, operator of the truck,
was transported to the hospital with minor
injuries. All three had to be extricated from
the vehicles as both vehicles were very heavily damaged.
 OPINION Continued from page 4
dip and chili, Guy Pelletier at Pat’s Peak
for the fantastic chili, and Lisa Moore
for the delicious bean dip. Thank you
too to our local newspapers for the great
publicity they gave our superbowl subs
fundraiser – both the Villager and Messenger ran our article two weeks in a row.
We especially appreciate the Messenger
also printing our order form in its entirety.
And finally, the youth groups would like
to thank all of you who bought subs, chili,
and bean dip (and were so generous with
tips to our delivery people).
Nagle was released on 10,000 dollars
personal recognizance bail with a March
10th court date in the Henniker District
Court. The Hillsboro Police Department
was assisted by members of both the
Antrim and Henniker Police Departments.
Christa Salamy (l) presents Ben Pratt (r) with the Antrim Chamber of Commerce’s 2010
Citizen of the Year Award for his longtime service to the town.
Antrim Chamber honors Ben Pratt
The Antrim Chamber of Commerce
held its annual dinner at the Presbyterian Church, catered by Rick & Diane’s
Restaurant and Bakery 42. Longtime
town resident Ben Pratt, was honored
as Citizen of the Year.
In a press release, Pratt was
described as a man who “can be seen
walking around town quietly taking an
inventory of what is going on and what
perhaps needs fixing. He may be seen
as a quiet, more reserved person, but
his actions and commitments to our
town have been exponential.” Pratt has
served Antrim as water commissioner,
selectman and Cemetery Trustee for
more than 20 years. He currently is the
town treasurer.
Pratt is most proud of his work with
Mathcounts, a program geared toward
helping middle-school students enter
into a math competition. The Antrim
Chamber of Commerce has donated
$200 to Mathcounts in Pratt’s honor.

$3,000 emergency spending authorized
New London Administrator Jesse
Levine recently sent an e-mail to the Select-
men seeking approval to repair the damage
caused by the leaking air handler in the
Amy Jalbert, pictured, and her brother John Mann recently purchased the J&S Bennington General Store. Currently open seven days a week from 6am-7pm, they have movie
rentals, groceries, coffee to go and a deli.
New London renews trash contracts
The New London Selectmen have voted
unanimously to renew its two trash contracts. The town currently hauls its trash
trailers to the Meredith Transfer Station,
where Dan Clark picks it up and brings it
to Berlin.
Although the existing contract includes
a 3% increase every year and includes a fuel
rider, Clark has only increased the price
by 3% once in the last five years and hasn’t
always enforced the fuel rider. He wants to
hold agreement for another five years and
offered to hold the contract with one 3%
increase until January 31, 2016.

landfill, has agreed to hold the tipping fee

ceiling at Whipple Hall. Levine believes
she should be authorized to expend up to
a certain amount of money for emergency
repairs and asked the board to allow her to
use her judgment in that regard. Chair Tina
Helm asked what she felt was an acceptable number. Levine said that $2,500 in an
emergency would be appropriate.
Peter Bianchi had no problem with her
spending a certain amount in an emergency
situation and Mark Kaplan felt $10,000
would be a good number. Bianchi thought
$3,000 would be sufficient and Helm
thought $5,000 would be appropriate. After
further discussion, the board approved the
$3,000 figure.
Fire damages Deering home
A Deering couple was forced out of their
house Saturday when fire broke out at about
11 p.m. According to assistant Fire Chief
Chris Ladue, it appears the fire started in the
attic of the 106 Mansenville Road house.
Although fire damage was mostly confined to the attic, it left the house uninhabitable. The occupants got safely out on their
own and are staying with relatives. It took
firefighters only about 20 minutes to bring
the blaze under control. Officials say the fire
remains under investigation but does not
appear suspicious.

H-D scholars to host ‘Taste of Hillsboro’
Hillsboro NH Scholars is proud to announce the 2nd annual “Taste of Hillsboro” event. The Taste of Hillsboro will
be held on March 12th at the Hillsboro
Deering Middle School in Hillsboro from
11 AM to 3 PM. We plan to have many
of our local restaurants in attendance to
give the community an opportunity to try
selected items off their menu.
This event will be free to attend, but
you will purchase tickets at the door to
try the food. Tickets will be $1 each in
$10 increments. The restaurants will
have tables set up in the middle school
gym/cafe with different selections for
you to try, but rather than using money
to purchase the food everything will be
priced by tickets.
There will be tables in the center of
the gym/cafe for you to sit, relax and
socialize. T-mud and the Spuds are
scheduled to play several acoustical sets
during the event. At the conclusion, a
portion of the proceeds will go to the local NH Scholars fund. Restaurants will be
encouraged to offer coupons, specials and
have menus available for their locations
to be used at a later date. NH Scholars
will also have raffles and door prizes to
win at the event.
For more information about this
event, if you are interested in having
a table at the event or if your business
would be willing to donate an item for
the raffles to help support Hillsboro’s
NH Scholars, please contact either John
Bramley at [email protected] or
Joe Walker at [email protected].

On January 28, Hillsboro-Deering Elementary School held
its first, and hopefully annual, Spelling Bee. Students in 3rd, 4th,
and 5th grades had participated in classroom spelling bees and the
top three spellers from each classroom participated in the school
bee. The Bee started with 39 spellers, and after 5 rounds, were
down to 4 competitors - Alexandra Buciak, Fayth Grimes, Mya
Poluchov, and Tia Smith. The four girls battled it out for 7 rounds,
with Fayth and Tia eventually spelling correctly to advance. It took
twelve more rounds before Fayth was designated the winner by correctly spelling the word, “mandate.” Fayth will now advance to the
Regional Spelling Bee sponsored by the NH Union Leader and the
NH Elks. HDES wishes to thank the HDES PTO for their support in
providing the registration fee for Scripps Spelling Bee resources.

Newport man wins Lundholm award
• “PURECOMFORT” Heating Oil
and PREMIUM PROPANE Delivery
The Union Leader Board of Judges recently presented Newport’s
Ron Purmort with its prestigious Carl Lundholm Memorial Award. He
received the award at Sunday’s “The Leaders” banquet held at the
Radisson Hotel in Manchester.
“He’s probably one of the most selfless people I know,” said Carol
Dozibrin, the athletic director at Winncunnet High School. “He’s handsdown been the most influential and kind person in many lives,” said
Dozibrin. “He’s the true definition of volunteer, giving athletes the tools
they need to succeed in sports but more importantly, in life.
The 58-year-old Purmort, is not married, and has no kids of his own,
but has taken in five different athletes to live with him over the years.
Union Leader President and Publisher Joseph W. McQuaid called the
awards ceremony “a place to honor the best of the human spirit.”
Hopkinton girls take seventh straight
Hopkinton boys streak ends at seven

points to beat out Moultonborough (725) and InterLakes (712.5).

TAKE YOUR MEDICINE
A new study in the American Journal of Psychiatry
suggests that S-Adenosyl Methionine (SAMe), an
over-the-counter dietary supplement, can be an
effective, relatively well-tolerated, adjunctive treatment for adults with major depressive disorders
who do not respond to their treatment with antiBY SARAH CHAPIN depressant medication.

Researchers have found that vitamin C can not only prevent the onset
of sepsis, but can reverse the disease. Sepsis is caused by a bacterial
infection that can begin anywhere in your body. Your immune system
goes into overdrive, overwhelming normal processes in your blood.The
result is that small blood clots form, blocking blood flow to vital organs.
This can lead to organ failure. Babies, the elderly and those with weakened immune symptoms are most likely to get sepsis. But even healthy
people can become deathly ill from the disease. Patients with severe sepsis have a high mortality rate, nearly 40 percent, because there is no
effective treatment.A single bolus of vitamin C, injected early at the time
of induction of sepsis, prevents capiillary plugging. It has also been found
that a delayed bolus injection of vitamin C can reverse plugging by
restoring blood flow in previously plugged capillaries.

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has approved Krystexxa
(pegloticase) to treat the painful condition known as gout in adults who
do not respond to or who cannot tolerate conventional therapy. Gout
occurs due to an excess of the bodily waste uric acid, which is eventually deposited as needle-like crystals in the joints or in soft tissue.
These crystals can cause intermittent swelling, redness, heat, pain and
stiffness in the joints. Gout is strongly associated with obesity, high
blood pressure, high cholesterol and diabetes, and occurs more often in
men, in women after menopause, and in people with kidney disease.

Until recently, heart healthy
eating goals focused on avoiding
or restricting certain foods.
However, the revised American
Heart Association guidelines,
released in 2000, focus on foods
we should eat rather than foods
we should avoid. All foods can
fit into a healthy eating pattern
if they are eaten in moderate
amounts, and balanced by
lower-fat or lower-calorie options.

The Pee Wee Henniker Huskies played an afternoon game against
Kearsarge on Sunday. The Kearsarge Pee Wee hockey team and the
Henniker Pee Wee hockey team are long time friends; the teams having played each other for years. The teams are so evenly matched that
they have tied two games and won a game each this season. Yesterday's game was 0-0, with only a few penalties and one of the most fun
and exciting games yet! Both teams were celebrating at the last buzzer.
The Henniker defensive team should be mentioned for their excellent plays lead by the Huskie goalies, Cameron Bourque and Kevin
Foley. The teams had fun and everyone won!

No charges filed in Newport fatality
Sullivan County Attorney Marc Hathaway’s decision not to
prosecute Melinda Leno for the death of Vicki Goss is disapointing to both the victim’s father and the Newport Police Chief.
Hathaway reviewed the Newport police investigation, including
statements from 27 witnesses, an accident scene reconstruction,
a laboratory blood analysis and a detailed post-collision inspection of the vehicle.
Henrietta Hodgman, Goss’ mother, and Vicki’s son, Alex Goss,
were critically injured in the crash when Goss’ Dodge Caravan, was
hit on the left side by a Dodge Durango operated by Leno.
Some witnesses estimated the speed of the Leno vehicle at 50
to 100 miles per hour just before the crash. Hathaway cited the
police report which found that a clamp, securing an aftermarket
air intake assembly installed in Leno’s Durango by her boyfriend,
caused the Durango’s throttle to stick in the open position, which
caused the accident.
The reasoning is little consolation to Bruce Hodgman, Vicky
Goss’ father, who said he just doesn’t understand how anyone
could be so negligent. Newport Police Chief David Hoyt said he
is disappointed by Hathaway’s decision, but “that’s what the law
dictates.”

Mount Royal celebrates Catholic School’s Week
Mount Royal Academy celebrated Catholic School’s Week with numerous spiritual,
academic and fun activities. The events were
held in conjunction with the national Catholic Schools Week celebrated by over 45,000
schools across the United States.
The week’s activities centered around
the school’s theme “Growing in the Light
of Christ”. This theme celebrates the recent
and upcoming growth of the Academy
with recent campus improvements and the
building of a new multi-purpose gymnasium which includes computer and science
laboratories and art and music rooms. Additionally, the theme reminds students that
they are growing in their faith with their
Catholic education.
In many ways, Catholic Schools Week
serves as a school spirit week for the Academy. Students celebrated Mass on campus
with visiting priest, Fr. Jason Jalbert, Director of Vocations for the Catholic Diocese of
Manchester. A special lunch was prepared
and served to the faculty compliments of the
Student Council. Students challenged other
classes by decorating their classroom doors
with various interpretations on the theme.
The 5th and 6th grade were winners of this
contest and were awarded a pizza party for
their class. Students also participated in essay and poster contests all centered around
the week’s theme. Friday’s activities culminated with a ground breaking ceremony
and blessing on the construction of the new
multi-purpose gymnasium and a sledding
party with treats and hot chocolate.
Attention Chocolate Lovers
“Zander Luperchio of Sunapee shows off
his prize winning poster for Catholic Schools
Week. Zander took first place for the 2nd and
3rd grade class.”

Peterborough father arrested for assault
A Peterborough father has been arrested and charged with
assault following a ConVal basketball game with Milford. Police
Chief Scott M. Guinard said Peter Carland, 44, was charged with
simple assault, resisting detention and disorderly conduct. He was
released on $1,500 personal recognizance bail, pending a March 21
arraignment in JaffteyPeterborough District Court. According to
the Keene Sentinel, ConVal athletic director Jon Hall reported that
Carland struck him after the game. Witnesses said security had to
restrain Carland who was apparently upset that his son was pulled
from the game for having words with an official. Carland also had
heated words with basketball Coach John Curran.
