Nonresidents happy Selectmen report New London is in "good shape" The New London Selectmen held their annual Nonresident Taxpayers' meeting on Monday and to the delight of those attending, announced that it would be opening the Transfer Station on Sundays. The Board reported that it had advertised for a Sunday position at the Transfer Station which it hoped to fill by next month. Selectman Tina Helm said she couldn't promise a specific timeline, but stressed the Board was trying to be attentive to their needs. The general message given was that the town is in "good shape." The three Board members alternated updating the group on various issues, including the goal of having have a community center in the 1941 Building with a combination of Public and Private funds, the status of the Elkins Project to upgrade sidewalks and make the area safer, fixing cracks in the Pleasant Lake Dam and to repair the Pleasant Lake Boat Launch. Lamson Lane property owners were happy to learn of plans to replace culverts and remove trees to prevent future washouts. Weare woman sentenced to one year in jail The Weare woman who stole about $80,000 from her employer's company while it was in bankruptcy will spend the next year in jail. Renee Pelletier, 60, begins serving the sentence at the end of the month and has been ordered pay restitution to her former employer, Modern Excavation and Development, a small company in Merrimack. Pelletier pled guilty to stealing the money, using more than 500 illegal transactions over a three year period. The evidence showed that she forged owner Christopher Dunn's signature on more than 315 checks issued to her personal creditors and to "Cash" and also used the company's checking account to make another 233 online transactions to pay off her debts.

Numbering eight guns in all, the collection will be made available when hosting special events and guests. “Ruger is delighted to provide these firearms to the NRA Range,” said Chris Killoy, Ruger’s Vice President of Sales and Marketing. “The staff at the range do a fantastic job for all of us when they introduce media personnel, politicians, and other visitors to safe and responsible firearms use.” While the range has always had plenty of ammunition, their inventory never included firearms. For events held at the range such as the Youth Education Summit and the annual Veterans Day Shoot, NRA employees would offer up their personal firearms. Thanks to Ruger, such a sacrifice is no longer necessary. “The NRA Range staff is thrilled with the donation,” said NRA Headquarters Range Manager Michael Johns. “Now Ruger will be the first trigger everyone pulls at all of our events.” Sugar River donates to Mitchell Park MainStreet Warner, Inc. recently received a donation from Sugar River Bank to apply towards the completion of the stage and amphitheater in the Jim Mitchell Community Park. Steve Gratton, Board member of MainStreet Warner, Inc. states, “The bank’s show of support for this project means so much to us, as we near the stage’s completion and prepare for the park to provide the Main Stage for this year’s Warner Fall Foliage Festival in October. Our small town bank, Sugar River Bank, is the epitome of what a community bank can mean to its residents. They know us, they care about this community, and they are really here for us." Sunapee may receive FEMA assistance Sunapee Road Agent Scott Hazelton reviewed the bid proposals for Winn Hill Road and Trow Hill Road with the Selectmen. Four companies submitted proposals for engineering and design services. Hazelton, said he has money in his budget left over from the completed paving projects, to put towards one of these projects, and recommended putting this money towards Winn Hill Road, which was on this year’s paving schedule. Hazelton is also working with FEMA on the recent storms and washouts as the Town may be eligible for costs to assist withthe Trow Hill design. www.granitequill.com | august 9, 2013 | The Messenger | Page 5 Henniker Community School & John Stark to share Chinese teacher The U.S.-China Teachers Exchange Program, established in 1996 by the National Committee on U.S. China Relations with funding from the Freeman Foundation, will bring Ms. Zhang Yang to the United States to teach Chinese language and culture at the Henniker Community School and John Stark Regional High School in the coming school year. Zhang Yang is one of 10 Chinese teachers traveling to the U.S. for this program. There are five American teachers traveling to China to teach English this year in this exchange program. “We are ever so pleased to welcome Ms. Zhang to our faculty team for this school year,” said John Stark Principal Christopher Corkery. “In addition to having her continue Chinese language instruction for our world language students, we are looking forward to having her infuse cultural lessons across our curriculum by co-teaching with other faculty members. 21st Century Skills are universal and the perspective Ms. Zhang can offer our school community is invaluable,” continued Corkery. She is expected to arrive in New Hampshire just prior to the opening day of school on August 28 and will reside with a local family. “The idea to be part of this exchange with the National Committee on U.S. China Relations came about more than 10 years ago in Henniker because of our Artist in Residency program,” said HCS Principal Katherine McBride. “After that first very successful year, we decided the logical progression would be to share a Chinese Exchange teacher with John Stark. This way our students have the opportunity to be exposed to Chinese language and cultural opportunities through their high school years,” continued McBride. The cost for the Henniker Community School and John Stark Regional High School to host a Chinese Exchange Teacher through this program is $5,000 and is shared equally by the two districts.

Off to a shotgun start, the 56 golfers finished their 18 holes and sat down to a fabulous lunch provided by Angus Lea owners Curt and Linda Niven. According to chairs Karen Booth, Barbara Hays and Ann Mooney, an abundance of sponsorships by local merchants allowed the Lions to raise over $6,000 for its community service projects such as Christmas Baskets, Downtown Holiday Lights, HDES Audio & Sight Testing, RIF and the Senior Citizen's Dinner.

J.D. and Carol Colcord of Warner hosted a 60th high school reunion at their home on July 20th. Seven alumni from as far away as Utah, Colorado, Florida, Massachusetts and New Hampshire gathered together to reminisce about their experiences over the years and show off grand and great grandchildren photographs. The celebration included a cook-out and a green and white decorated cake with the school colors, green and white. A group photograph was taken to memorialize the event. TAKE YOUR MEDICINE People who take immunosuppressive drugs to treat lupus do not necessarily increase their cancer risk, according to new research led by scientists at the Research Institute of the McGill University Health Centre (RI-MUHC). This landmark study, which was published in Annals of the Rheumatic Diseases addresses long-standing fears of a link between BY SARAH CHAPIN lupus medication and cancer. Systematic lupus erythematosus (SLE), commonly known as lupus, is an autoimmune disease in which the body’s immune system attacks healthy tissue such as the skin, joints, kidneys and the brain, leading to inflammation and lesions. Previous research has suggested that lupus patients have an increased risk of developing cancer, particularly lymphoma. Lymphoma is a type of blood cancer that occurs when cells called lymphocytes, which usually help protect the body from infection and disease, begin growing and multiplying uncontrollably, leading to tumor growth. • • • In a small pilot study published in the Journal of Alzheimer’s Disease , a team of academic researchers has pinpointed how vitamin D3 and omega-3 fatty acids may enhance the immune system’s ability to clear the brain of amyloid plaques, one of the hallmarks of Alzheimer’s disease. • • • Rates of hemorrhage for older patients on warfarin therapy are much higher than rates reported in clinical trials, found a study published in CMAJ (Canadian Medical Association Journal). Warfarin, a commonly used blood thinner, is used to treat patients with atrial fibrillation to help prevent stroke and blood clots. • • • Brought to you as a public service by HENNIKER PHARMACY • 603-428-3456 P.O.Box 718 • Proctor Square • Henniker, NH 03242 Warner man killed in Florida accident A Warner motorcyclist was killed in Florida last Friday after hitting a truck that pulled in front of him. The Florida Highway Patrol reports that a GMC 1500 pickup being driven by Andrew N. Crone, 26, of Bradenton was northbound on U.S. 41 and began turning left onto 53rd Avenue West, through a solid yellow light. Riding southbound on his 2000 Harley-Davidson motorcycle, Travis L. Podgis, 28, of Warner, N.H., laid his motorcycle onto its side, but could not avoid striking Crone's truck. Podgis, who was not wearing a helmet, was thrown from the motorcycle, and later pronounced dead at a local hospital. Charges are expected to be filed. Whaleback ski area sold at foreclosure Whaleback Mountain ski area has been sold at foreclosure auction to the bank holding the mortgage on the property. As first reported in the Valley News, Randolph National Bank was the sole bidder, offering the reserve price of $848,000 for the 154-acre property. The ski area, which first opened as Snowcrest in 1955, was renamed in 1968, and closed in March for lack of new investors. Bank officials say several people are interested in purchasing and reopening the facility. According to John Schiffman, who tried to raise money to run the area, Whaleback will be operating again this winter. Warner sued over civil rights violation? Warner Selectman Chairman David Hartman recently moved to go into nonpublic session at 8:15 p.m. under RSA91-A:3 II (e), legal. In attendance: Chairman Hartman, Selectman Clyde Carson, Selectman David Karrick, and Town Administrator Jim Bingham. During the short session Bingham informed the Board about a possible civil rights claim.

Friends and relatives could send photos of their town, local celebrations, and sometimes, its people, with a short personal note, for only a one or two penny stamp. The sentimental value of these photo souvenirs of your own town, or your own vacation trip, meant that postcards were saved over the years. This volume of treasured postcards from earlier times, and people’s love of accumulating these glimpses of the past, lead to the hobby of postcard collecting, called Deltiology, the third largest hobby today. Larry Cote purchased two Newport postcards in the early 1980's and was intrigued with the history of his town that they presented. The two postcards comprised his entire collection until 1993, when he met Hal Campbell, a long-time avid collector of postcards from all of the towns in the area. Today Larry has about 800 postcards from the Newport, Guild, Kelleyville and Corbin Park. On Tuesday, August 13, Larry will give a slide presentation on the history of postcards, and their value in capturing local history. This talk will be held in the Richards Library Ballroom, from 6:307:45. There is NO admission charge. Pauline Cunningham, volunteer driver from Newport, assists Ted Monetta of Claremont as he arrives for a medical appointment. To schedule a ride, or to learn more about becoming a volunteer driver contact Pam Joslin at (603) 863-0003.

Kearsarge. Group maintains Mt Kearsarge trails A group of NH teenagers have been working on trail maintenance on Mount Kearsarge. Members of the Student Conservation Association, they are dedicated to protecting and restoring national parks, marine sanctuaries, cultural landmarks and community green spaces in all 50 states. As its mission, SCA hopes to build the next generation of conservation leaders and inspire lifelong stewardship of the environment and communities by engaging young people in hands-on service to the land. The N.H. corps sent 30 student members to Bear Brook State Park in January, and in April, members began conservation work throughout the state. For the past two weeks, a nine-member team has been working on Mount Kearsarge, clearing brush from the paths, making sure the drainage ditches stay clean, and making sure the trails are in good shape.

There are exciting improvements in store for the 2013/2014 season with a new triple chairlift to service four new trails and one glade as part of the Cascade Basin expansion, a new area with 100% snowmaking coverage; (6) additional energy-efficient snowmaking guns; more rental equipment; and the installation of geothermal heating. Kris Blomback, General Manager, commented, "We always strive to provide our guests with something new and exciting every season. This season we are excited to showcase our largest expansion." This summer Pats Peak installed a new triple chairlift as part of their Cascade Basin Expansion. This will bring the number of chairlifts to six, giving Pats Peak the largest uphill capacity in the region to assure a great day on the snow. Cascade Basin is a completely new area on the "backside" of the main mountain. For the 2013/2014 season, the new area will consist of four new ski trails as well as one new glade. The trails will have 100% snowmaking coverage to continue to provide quality snow surfaces. Future options include more terrain, night skiing and additional terrain parks.

It's Up To You To Complete The Loop A few weeks ago we published a story outlining how the Hillsboro Lions Club spent over $17,000 on several community service projects as a way of giving back to the town. On page 5 of today's issue, you will find a story on the Club's Annual Golf Tournament which raised over $6,000 to fund those projects this year. We all, or at least most of us, know that money doesn't grow on trees. In addition to the golfer's registration fees, the vast majority of that $6,000 came from the generous sponsorships (donations) of local merchants that consistently support the Lions, Chamber, Guest Editorial Hillsborough Pride, Boy & Girl Scouts and our churches. This is not unique. Lions, Rotarians and others are doing the same in Antrim, Bennington, Henniker, Weare, Hopkinton, New London, Sunapee, Newport, Peterborough and Andover. Local merchants support the groups which support the community. Now it's up to you to close the loop by shopping local to support these merchants, our friends and neighbors. It is funny how that works, but they can't give anything back if they don't get it in the first place. Please think of that the next time you plan on spending precious dollars out of town. By Grant Bosse Repealing ObamaCare is worth doing right ObamaCare is an awful law. It’s falling apart under its own weight, and President Obama has already been forced to waive key provisions several times to prevent the law's disastrous consequences from fully hitting us. Repealing ObamaCare is good idea, and Congress should do everything it can to get rid of it. Unfortunately, the push to defund ObamaCare through the appropriations process just won’t work. Utah Senator Mike Lee is gathering allies who promise to oppose any Continuing Resolution to keep government operating unless it defunds the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, known as ObamaCare. Federal programs are authorized and defined in statute, but zeroing out federal funding has the effect of repealing that statute, since there is no one being paid to administer or enforce it. House Republicans voted repeatedly to repeal the law wholesale last year, and once again this year, but Majority Leader Harry Reid will never let such a repeal come to a vote in the Senate. I’ve covered Reid’s complete failure to run the Senate before, but it’s worth mentioning again because its the reason why Congress has been unable to pass the Appro- www.granitequill.com | august 9, 2013 | The Messenger | Page 13 John Shadegg, and Senate efforts to curb wasteful spending from the like of John McCain and John Sununu, Congressional Republicans lost credibility with their base. By 2010, discontent with bailouts, boondoggles, and deficits fueled the Tea Party movement. Without credibility, many Tea Party voters seek purity. They want Senators like Lee, Paul, and Cruz to hold the line, no matter what. In this case, they’re holding the wrong line. It doesn’t help that conservative organizations are eager to raise money on the false promise of ending ObamaCare. Oklahoma Senator Tom Coburn, the Senate’s most hardline fiscal hawk and leading ObamaCare critic, recognizes that blocking a CR won’t get rid of the law. If the Senate were to vote on defunding the law, it’s conceivable that a few shaky Democrats would take the opportunity to distance themselves from the disaster they created. But without the President’s support or a 2/3 of the House and Senate, such a road would leave much of the federal government shut down and ObamaCare fully funded. I’ve not been shy criticizing Reid and New Hampshire Senator Jeanne Shaheen for their willingness to ignore the rules and traditions of the Senate. I’m just as willing to chide Lee and his colleagues for their failure to understand how the Senate works. Senate Republicans should demand an up or down vote on ObamaCare repeal, and Reid and Shaheen should be branded as the real obstructionists for refusing to allow one. But refusing to federal programs in order to repeal an unrelated law just doesn’t make sense. Daniel Webster, then a New Hampshire Congressman, tried to end the War of 1812 by defunding it. The resulting backlash stymied his Presidential ambitions for the rest of his life. Webster paid a heavy price for his futile effort. Lee, Paul, and Cruz may learn that same lesson. Grant Bosse is Editor of New Hampshire Watchdog, an independent news site dedicated to New Hampshire public policy. He is a Senior Fellow at the Josiah Bartlett Center for Public Policy. Letters to the Editor Dear Editor: I would like to respond to Karen Testerman’s letter published 2 August. Major Nidal Husan’s e-mails were monitored under the Bush administration. At least 19 were copied. Benghazi was obviously never discussed electronically. Boston was never discussed electronically. SEAL Team 6 was dissolved in 1987. So who really took out bin Laden? Michael C. Lane, Phoenix AZ Messenger THE priations Bills that fund the federal government. Instead, the House and Senate have agreed to a series of short-term Continuing Resolutions to keep the government running. Lee is one of 11 Senators, along with 60 House Republicans, who’ve said they won’t approve another CR unless it defunds ObamaCare, even if that means a government shutdown like 1995. Repealing ObamaCare outright, defunding it, or simply waiving its requirements like the President did for the employer mandate are worth pursuing. But Lee’s strategy is both short-sighted and politically foolish. First of all, failure to pass a Continuing Resolution won’t shut down ObamaCare. As New Hampshire Senator Kelly Ayotte pointed out, the law is funded through mandatory spending, not the year to year discretionary spending covered under Appropriations Bills. A shutdown would close National Parks, but the HHS employees implementing ObamaCare so badly would still get paid. So why are Lee, and Senate firebrands Rand Paul and Ted Cruz, threatening a last stand against ObamaCare that is doomed to fail? I blame George W. Bush. It’s become cliché for the left to blame all manner of problems on the former President, and the current Administration certainly isn’t shy about pointing fingers towards the ranch in Texas five years after taking office. But we can trace the origins of the current push by some Republicans to defund ObamaCare or shut down government to the Bush Administration. While Bush’s first budget to Congress was pretty good, and the Bush tax cuts in 2001 and 2003 helped speed an economic recovery that led to booming federal revenues. But in the aftermath of 9/11, Bush deferred almost entirely to Congress to make budget decisions. Appropriators turned to unprecedented amounts of earmarks to push through unprecedented spending that rose even faster. Deficits skyrocketed, and spendthrifts like Nancy Pelosi and Barack Obama were able to campaign as stewards of fiscal responsibility.

There is a good harvest of lettuce and tomatoes, peppers, cabbage, herbs, kale and collards. Come by the garden on Bear Hill Road see how nice the garden looks. Hillsborough needs someone to take over this endeavor for the year 2014, as this is the last year Harry & Jacki Morehouse can manage the Food Pantry Garden. The Food Pantry Garden was started in 2008 by the Scott family on Bear Hill Rd. and has continued successfully under the management of Harry & Jacki Morehouse. If you like playing in the dirt, growing veggies, flowers and herbs for The Food Pantry in Hillsborough you will love this rewarding volunteer position. The vegetables grown provide a good direction to better nutrition for the clients receiving food at the Food Pantry. The Food Pantry Garden is of vital importance to this community, not only as physical nourishment, but also a spiritual one. You will have the opportunity to meet new people, learn something new every day and know that you are helping people to a better diet. Also, Harry & I have noticed that we are in better physical condition since volunteering at the FPG. If you are interested in taking over the garden you are invited to join us for the 2013 season.

Suspended Weare lieutenant James Carney retires The Town of Weare is in the process of replacing its Police Chief and now faces another key vacancy in the Department. Lt. James Carney, who has been on paid administrative leave since March, has retired effective July 1st. The town had accused Carney of having an intimate relationship with an employee, transporting alcohol in a police vehicle, failing to enforce the department’s sexual harassment policy, coercing employees, getting into physical altercations with police and civilians, and sharing confidential personnel records. However, his attorney, Tony Soltani, claims Carney was a whistleblower who brought a series of complaints to selectmen, including incidents of sexual harassment, abuse of authority by officers, the falsification of reports and perjury.

Their words were echoed by New London Recreation Director Scott Blewitt, who said the dog owners are being responsible.

Seven firefighters graduated from the Fire Academy in February. A new heart monitor was purchased for $11K. Through a donation provided by Mary and Eli Cogswell the department was able to purchase a chest compression tool. The department is in the process of applying for a grant for replacing about 20 self breathing apparatus. Typically they cost about $8K each; the current ones are about 20 years old and not in compliance. Selectman Carson asked if the grant is not successful will the expense be in the 2014 budget. Ed said no, he would begin replacing them slowly. Dispatch is going to start Pre-Alert in August which means any medical emergency that comes into 911 during the 4 minute question series the call will be pre-toned allowing the volunteers to get to the station quicker, there will also be a cell phone text message to those fire department members who sign up for the text message. The new rescue vehicle will be ready in about 3 weeks. Chairman Hartman asked why Warner does not transport to Concord Hospital. Ed said the start up cost is about $150K plus a special transport license, plus extra personnel. The Chief said the arrangement with Hopkinton is more cost effective. There will be a future discussion regarding a new fire station.

(Union Leader/Megan Pierce photo) Restorations for Hancock's Meetinghouse Members of the Hancock Meetinghouse Restoration Fundraising Subcommittee met Wednesday night to plan for a $1 million renovation campaign. Committee member and architect David Drasba started the process several years ago when he secured an LCHIP grant to study the building. Uniquely in Hancock, the church and the town share ownership of the building, so the committee has representatives of both groups. According to Pastor Judy Copeland the building is in good shape considering its age. The 100-year-old slate roof should be replaced. The building was erected in 1821 and moved across Main Street to its present location about 1850. The Committee hopes to update the electricity and heating system and add handicapped accessible bathrooms and a platform lift to replace the chairlift along the curved stairway which leads to the church sanctuary.While it serves as a church on Sunday morning, the multi-function building has also been used for concerts, fundraisers, and as Town Offices, Town Meetings and for voting.
