Exotic Wildlife And Plants: Okay To Enjoy, But Be Responsible_

Looked what popped up! A nice picture of an otter. Today, otters live in nearly all the rivers,streams, lakes and ponds in New Hampshire. This has not always been the case. Early histori-ans described otters as being common throughout the state, but unregulated trapping and hunt-ing, pollution of water and elimination of beaver - whose dams create otter habitat - led to thenear demise of the otter in the state by the late 1800s.- Duane Cross Photo (www.duanecrosspics.com)

NH Grand to work with NorthCountry OHRV Coalition todevelop marketing plan and

promote long-planned initiativein and out of county

Ride the Wilds, Coos County,NH, the new 1,000+ mile inter-connected All-Terrain-Vehicle(ATV) trail system throughoutnorthern New Hampshire hasunveiled its new logo and hadits grand opening last Saturday.

According to Harry Brown,President of the North CountryOHRV Coalition, the all-dayevent was be held at ColemanState Park in Stewartstown Theschedule began with a greetingand brief history of the trails

project by Brown, which were-followed by a few words fromvarious state agencies, and anofficial ribbon cutting to launchthe Ride the Wilds interconnect-ed trail system.

We are very confident that the1,000-mile-long interconnectedATV trail system in CosCounty our very own RideThe Wilds will be ready forsummer riding, said Brown.Ride the Wilds is more than atrail system; it is an economicengine which will drive busi-ness to local shops, restaurants,and properties.

Many people throughout CoosCounty, including sixteenOHRV clubs and their members,local community business lead-ers, Boards of Selectmen, theCos County Commissionersand the County LegislativeDelegation have worked hard to

make this happen, Brownexplained. In addition, two stateagencies were working partners

Division, N.H. Fish and GameDepartment

The popularity of having exoticplants and animals as pets is atrend that can potentially put ournative fish and wildlife habitatsat risk. It is important for the

public to be aware that invasivefish and wildlife can disrupt the

local ecology and can out-com-pete native species. They shouldnever be released.

Almost everyone has foundenjoyment in stopping to view awater garden or an aquarium ata local restaurant or spa. Thereare local contractors that willcome to your home and install a

peaceful, cascading waterfallthat includes a pond liner, pump

and filter assembly. Many homeimprovement stores have ready-made kits for you to install onyour own. These water gardensadd a very relaxing and aesthet-ically pleasing landscapingtouch to a home or business. Wehave a lovely "Planting forWildlife" habitat/pond area atthe entrance to the Fish andGame Department in Concord.

in the development and imple-mentation of the Ride the Wilds- the Bureau of Trails being thelead agency for the Departmentof Resources and EconomicDevelopment and theDepartment of Fish and Game.

ATV riders are going to lovethe experience of the connectingtrails and not having to trailertheir vehicles from one locationto another. They will be able tohead out for a day or more, withopportunities to stop and stayalong the way, said Brown. Itwill not only help existing small

businesses, but it will alsoencourage new tourism related

businesses to open up, fromrestaurants to lodging proper-ties, and from services to rentaland repair shops. Members ofthe OHRV Coalition believethat connecting the trails willhelp bring ATV riders fromaround the region and the

Northeast into many NorthCountry communities such asGorham, Berlin, Errol,Pittsburg, Stewartstown,Colebrook, Stratford, Groveton,and Lancaster.

The Coalition consists of the

sixteen OHRV clubs along withtwo Coos County Chambers ofCommerce. Each organizationhas one board member servingon the Coalition. NewHampshire Grand recentlyassisted the Coalition in thefacilitation of a strategic mes-saging session with all the clubsinterested in working togetherfor the success of the intercon-nected trail system. As a resultof several work sessions, theinterconnecting trail name wascreated Ride the Wilds - and alogo was developed. Next steps

by New Hampshire Grand, inconjunction with the Coalition,is the development of a websiteand common signage, easily

accessible maps, and the possi-bility of mobile apps.

The North Country OHRVCoalition recently received a$15,000 grant from the CoosEconomic DevelopmentCorporation to develop and exe-cute a marketing plan to pro-mote the initiative. NewHampshire Grand will aid in themarketing effort.

North Country Home Healthand Hospice Agency is pleasedto announce the annual hospicetraining, scheduled in Littletonthis fall. The agency enjoys awonderful corps of volunteers,

but new volunteers are neededto meet the growing number of

patients and families in the 22communities served.

Hospice is considered to be themodel for quality, compassion-

ate care for people who are fac-ing a life-limiting illness whichno longer responds to cure-ori-ented treatment. Patients needsand wishes are met through ateam-oriented approach ofexpert medical care, pain man-agement, emotional and spiritu-al support, and volunteer serv-ice.

The philosophy of hospice isbased on the belief that provid-ing support and comfort forindividuals at the end of life

protects dignity, allows patientsto remain as active as possible,and to live a higher quality oflife.

Volunteers provide important

services to hospice families.They serve wherever patientsreside, whether in their ownhome, an assisted living center,

nursing home, or during a peri-od of hospitalization. Theyoffer emotional support andcompanionship, help with rou-tine tasks, run errands, groceryshop, prepare meals, wash laun-dry and do light housekeeping,or reminisce and record life sto-ries. Volunteers may also assiststaff in the hospice office, or

participate in community out-reach and fundraising. Manyshare special talents such as

Reiki, massage, pet therapy, ormusic therapy and aromathera-py.

The six-evening, 18 hour train-ing prepares volunteers byexpanding their understandingof the hospice program, theneeds of the dying, pain man-agement and comfort care, griefand bereavement, and commu-nication with the hospice fami-ly. There is no charge to partic-ipate in the training programwhich will be held at LittletonRegional Hospital on Tuesdayevenings, beginning September3rd.

Preregistration is required. Formore info, contact Sue Buteau,

Hospice Volunteer Coordinatorfor North Country Home Healthand Hospice, at 444-5317 [email protected]

NORTHCOUNTRYCOOKIN

Incessantly scouring the uni-verse for the weird, the wacky,and the stupid so you dont

have to.

Greetings, and thanks for join-ing me for another week. First,Im a man, yes, I am....Authorities arrested an Oregonman who they say attempted torape his wife before killing alamb. Sheriffs spokeswomanAndrea Carlson says 46-year-old Leland Kinkey of EaglePoint was running around his

property naked, screaming andsplattered with blood. Kinkeyallegedly told deputies heslammed a lamb into a vehicleand then broke its neck becausehe was trying to be a man.Witnesses told police thatKinkey had earlier tried to rape

his wife in front of their twochildren after getting angrywith a vehicle. Carlson saystwo other adults who live on the

property stopped the attack andcalled 911. Kinkey has beencharged with assault, kidnap-

ping, strangulation, attemptedrape and aggravated animalabuse. Bail was set at more than$1 million.[www.gazettetimes.com]

Next, revenge! A former stu-dent who posed naked on aLincoln Catholic high schoolcampus has been cited byLincoln police for trespassingand public nudity. Nineteen-year-old Valerie Dodds struckvarious poses on the footballfield at Lincoln Piux X earlyone morning recently. The pho-tos were posted on her website.Dodds said on her site that the

photo shoot was revenge againststudents and teachers who gaveDodds grief when she sharedher plans for a career in porn.She returned and stood in frontof the school wearing only

panties and pasties. That briefattire kept her on the lawful side

of the citys ordinance coveringpublic nudity.

Finally, Keith Judd filed alawsuit in Iowa last month to tryto invalidate the 2012 election

by having President Obamaofficially declared a Kenyan andnot an American. Judd filed the

papers from a federal peniten-tiary in Texas, where he is serv-ing 17 years for threatening awoman he believed to be aclone of the singer Stevie

Nicks, because Nicks (or theclone) had tried to sabotage hishome improvement company.(Bonus Fact: In the 2012Democratic presidential pri-mary in West Virginia, Judd, awrite-in candidate, defeatedPresident Obama in nine coun-ties and lost the state by only33,000 votes.) [Des Moines

Register]

Adding some excitement tothe game! A round of golf

between acquaintances endedwith one man stabbed in the armon the 12th hole with a broken 5iron and the other under arrest.The Oakland County sheriffsoffice said that the pair was partof a foursome playing at theWestwynd Golf Course. A 59-year-old man OaklandTownship man broke his golfclub over a 65-year-old WestBloomfield mans arm duringan argument over the score. Hethen stabbed the victim in thearm with the club. The other twogolfers held down the attacker

as the victim fled in a golf cartto the clubhouse. Deputies laterarrested the attacker at his homefor felonious assault.[www.azcentral.com]

Pushing the envelope a bit here,but an East Moline mans facingcharges in Rock Island afterauthorities say he snatched a

police officers gun and thengrabbed and squeezed the offi-

cers, uh, well, uh, testicles. TheRock Island Argus reports 60-year-old Edward White Johnsonwas arrested and is being heldon $100,000 bond after beingcharged with felonies for batteryand disarming a police officer.He also faces misdemeanors foraggravated assault and disorder-ly conduct. Hes set to have a

preliminary hearing next week.Being the eternal optimist, Iguess if a perp has the gun, it

could have been worse, muchworse.

From PJ, my Canadian BureauChief, some terribly sexist

jokes: (1) Ladies, if a man sayhell fix it, he will. Theres noneed to remind him every sixmonths about it. (2) My mother-in-laws coming ... I have toclear out one side of my closetso she can have a place to hangupside down to sleep. (3) Ifthere were a way to read awomans mind, Im not sure Iwould want to. I hate shoes,shopping, gossip, and I alreadyknow Im annoying. (4) Menhave feelings, too. For example,we feel hungry. (5) NASAsrobot, Curiosity, landed on

Mars. Early pictures show nosigns of ESPN, beer or porn.This makes it very clear thatmen are not from Mars. (Nocomplaints please. They are

jokes!)

Finally, more people NOTdoing the right thing! A motherarrived early to pick up her childfrom a daycare in the St. Vitalneighborhood of Winnipeg,Man., Canada, and indeed foundthe child. And five other chil-dren aged 1 to 5. What shedidnt find was any adult watch-ing the children. The parentcalled police, who waited formore than an hour for the unli-censed daycare operator toreturn, at which time the

unnamed 33-year-old womanwas charged with child aban-donment. Pat Wege, executivedirector of the Manitoba ChildCare Association, notes thereare 420 licensed home daycaresin the province and thou-sands of unlicensed ones.Licenses are free; to get one, achildcare provider simply has to

pass a basic class, and a back-ground check. [Winnipeg Sun]Makes me wonder how manyother things are happening wedont know about until we do?Too many, I am convinced!

Later.

few calories and add some fruitand/or vegetables to your diet,these tasty drinks can be substi-tuted for a snack or small meal -Especially breakfast!

Continued from page A1

It's important to note that ourwater garden does not includeany invasive fish (in fact thereare no fish at all in it) or inva-sive plants.

When you add fish to water gar-dens, it's another story that cango like this: Its summer; thetemperatures are hot and allseems wonderful. But in a few

months, the temperature will befalling. What will people whohave added fish to their watergardens do with these fish whenthe season changes? I hope theyare planning ahead and have anenvironmentally safe plan forholding those exotic fish and

plants through the winter? Inmany cases, not having a plan orthe logistics to store these fishappropriately leads to a prob-lem. Understandably, people

become emotionally attached tothese "pets." If they cannot findalternatives to maintain them,euthanization is unthinkable.Many times, these fish arereleased into local fire ponds athousing developments or city

parks. Or worse, into local

ponds and streams! This irre-sponsible action can have dev-astating results, because some

of these exotic fish or ornamen-tal plants and animals that peo-

ple enjoy looking at in theiraquariumsor water gardens have becomeaquatic nuisance species prob-lems, disrupting the native plantand animal communities.Invasive wildlife can disrupt thelocal ecology and can out-com-

pete native species due to highertolerance to poor water qualityand/or high reproductive rates.

Another scenario: Most familiesI know have at some pointenjoyed an aquarium for petfish. It is easy to understand the

populari ty of this practice,because of the peace, tranquilityand relaxation that they provide.Many parents use aquarium fishto teach their children theresponsibility of pet ownership

prior to purchasing a dog or cat.But what happens to these exot-ic fish when once-responsibleowners, with good intentions,no longer have the interest incaring for them? When circum-stances change and someone isforced to move to a new loca-tion where having these pets isnot an option, where do these

fish end up?

Just recently, I received a call

about a fish kill at Whites ParkPond in Concord. Having grownup in Concord myself, I knewexactly what pond the parkmanager was referring to. Infact, I remember visiting thisvery pond on my bicycle toenjoy these fish myself. Whenexactly? I wont tell, to preventfrom revealing my age! When Iarrived at scene of the recentincident, I observed what Ianticipated. A shallow pond

with an unusually high numberof (overpopulated with) gold-fish, koi and bluegill, crowdingthe perimeter of the pond guard-ing spawning nests. Havingenjoyed the Whites Park Pondfish experience in the past, I wassaddened to see what was hap-

pening.

My professional career hasblessed me enough to allow meto work with fish every day. Ichose this career because I

believe in conservation of NewHampshire fish and wildliferesources. Years ago, I neverwould have put much thoughtinto how these fish may havegotten there, and certainly was-nt aware of the risk these fish

were presenting. But the fact is,many of these exotic species are

present due to the acts of people

with big hearts, good intentionsor people who are simplyunaware of the damage it cancause. As a long time dog andaquarium owner myself, Iwould never condemn anyonefor loving their pets.Unfortunately, there is no shel-ter for fish to reside until adop-tion, if the original owner canno longer care for them.

Koi and goldfish are exoticspecies that must not get intostate waters. One reason is thatkoi and goldfish can present ahealth risk to native fish species.Ornamental fish raised in cap-tivity have developed resistanceto certain diseases, due to thetypically stress free environ-ment of an artificial setting. Koiand goldfish that appear healthycan be carriers of pathogenssuch as Koi Herpes Virus(KHV) and Spring Viremia ofCarp Virus (SVCv). SVCv, in

particular, can cause seriousproblems in wild baitfish popu-lations. Many of our wild andnative fishes have never beenexposed to some of theseemerging pathogens. Therefore,many of our wild fishes have

never had the opportunity todevelop an immune resistanceto these potential diseases. This

is why all baitfish and fish beingimported for aquaculture must

pass a pathological inspectionprior to an import beingapproved.

The New Hampshire Fish andGame Department, byAdministrative Rules, lists allornamental or aquarium fish asnon-controlled provided theyremain in a closed system.These same rules prohibit the

release of any fish and wildlifewithout a permit so to do. Someother states, Maine, for exam-

ple, prohibit the possession ofkoi completely. Please help us

protect the natural resources ofNew Hampshire by being con-scious of the fact that those

plants and animals you enjoy inyour water garden or aquariumare illegal to release into thewild, where they threaten nativewildlife.

A new Granite State hikingmemoir authored by Dan

Szczesny of Manchester has justbeen published by BondcliffBooks of Littleton, NewHampshire. The Adventures ofBuffalo and Tough Cookie is80 percent memoir and 20 per-cent guidebook, according to

publisher Mike Dickerman. Thebook chronicles the trail adven-tures of the author and hisyoung but ambitious hiking

partner during their year-longquest to reach all the summitson the 52 With a View NewHampshire mountain list. Alongthe way, the pair form a uniqueand unforgettable bond thattransforms both their lives inways the author never anticipat-ed.

The authors stylish, sincereprose is sure to touch the heartsof all readers, whether a peak-

bagger or an armchair hiker.Patricia Herr, author of last

years bestselling book,Up: A Mother andDaughters PeakbaggingAdventure, writes in herforeword to the book thatnot only did the authorand his pre-teen hiking

partner, Janelle , shareoutdoor adventures, but

they forged a friendshipthat bridged the tradition-al gaps of age and gender.Theirs is a team notformed of traditionalfamily ties but, instead,an earned and mutualrespect. Dan and Janelleare a unique and inspiringduo.

In the course of theirmountains travels, thehikers find themselvestramping up footpathsfrom one end of theGranite State to the other.Among the peaksclimbed in their hikingquest are popular sum-

mits such as Mount Monadnock

in southwestern NewHampshire, Mounts Cardiganand Kearsarge in the south-cen-tral part of the state, and MountWillard in Crawford NotchState Park. Their travels alsotook them to a number ofremote mountaintops in the

North Country, includingSugarloaf in the Nash Streamarea and Mount Magalloway in

New Hampshires northernmosttown, Pittsburg.

Dan Szczesny is the associatepublisher of The Hippo, NewHampshires largest weeklynewspaper, based inManchester. He came to theGranite State via a number ofnews departments from Buffaloto Philadelphia to New Jersey.An avid New England hiker andmember of the AppalachianMountain Clubs WhiteMountains 4,000-Footer Club,

Dan was married atop MountLafayette. He also traveled to

Nepal and trekked to EverestBase Camp. Excerpts from histravelogue of the journey, The

My broken foot - getting betterby the week - still aches occa-sionally so I'm giving it a littlelonger rest before hitting thehiking trails. Over the past sixweeks Atticus has been morethan a little patient with me andwhenever I get frustrated aboutmissing so much great hikingweather I remind myself (as Iswat black flies on the back ofmy neck in the backyard) that inanother two weeks we will be

back on a mountaintop, my footwill be healed (or well enoughto hike), and the thick of blackfly season will be gone.

So today I'm sitting at my writ-ing desk looking at a map, anddaydreaming about some quiettime up high away from the con-stant roar of Bike Week just out-side of my window. The wornmap traced by my fingers andsmoothed by my hands has beenfolded and unfolded more timesthan I can remember. And whenIm like this away from thetrails and looking forward togetting back out there as I'mstudying it, looking at the aginglines on the paper, I fantasize Ithat I am Long John Silver cap-tivated by a map of TreasureIsland, or Bilbo Baggins with acrinkled copy of the map to theLonely Mountain and all thetreasure hidden inside of it.

Maps have always had that

effect on me. They take meaway from where I am and, attimes, who I am. They fertilizemy imagination and open up

entirely new worlds. Anyonewho hikes can tell you that amap in the hands of one withoutimagination is as flat as theworld before ChristopherColumbus came around. Butfor those of us with adventure inour hearts, paper maps are threedimensional. We look at wherewe will start from and where weare going to and then weremember every hike we've evertaken and how it's never quitethat simple. You don't simplygo from Point A to Point B. It'snot about stopping and ending,it's about the journey that lies

between the trailhead and the

summit. Hiking, I learned, is alot like life. We have our goals,start out with high hopes, butalong the way the world meetsus and challenges confront us.Keep the goal in mind andunderstand the tests we'llundoubtedly face and we dofine, but step away from thatreality and it's all so difficult.

So when I study a map, as I'vebeen doing all morning with thiscrinkled copy of the ChathamTrails Association, Inc. Map ofthe Cold River Valley and Evans

Notch, I keep space in my mindfor the unimaginable. After all,one never knows what's waitingfor us out there. There are theoutward tests, and then those

that sit within us. Respectingthose two allows us to under-stand that it's not just aboutstarting, summiting, returning tothe car, and getting something toeat afterward. What awaits isthe mystery of the forest, thesparkling and enchantingstreams and rivers that caneither charm us or sweep usaway if we are not careful; rockslides; wind and rain; heat andsnow; and the seeds of fear andthrill of the unknown. It alladds up to the possibility ofadventure whenever we leavehome, leave the car, and enterthe forest on a shady trail withonly a backpack to carry every-thing we'll need. What happens

between leaving the knownbehind and returning to it iswhat makes hiking nearly myth-ical for us.As I've elevated, iced, and

wrapped my aching foot overthe past month and a half mymind has drifted off to the trailsand the golden, diffused lightthat pierces the wooded dark-ness in early morning, the mag-nificent blue ocean of sky filledwith great billowing ships in theform of cumulous clouds, andthat sense of working hard to getto such a heavenly place.

In these tempting daydreamsIm drawn repeatedly to Evans

Notch. It is the forgotten notchor, for some, the unknownnotch. It exists on the border

between New Hampshire and

Maine and it's not easy to get to,especially for readers of theNorthcountry News since it's farto the east and there is no directroute. Being "forgotten" or"unknown" also means thatnearly every time we've beenthere it's also been quiet anduncrowded. On a stormy day itcan feel desolate, but on a pitch-

perfect June day it is heavenly,thanks to the peace thatenvelops you on any one of its

peaks.

Since none of the summits comeclose to four thousand foot highthe peakbaggers often leave italone and that only lends to itsallure. Add in views from thetops of mountains with names

like Caribou, Blueberry,Speckled, the Baldfaces, andEagle Crag and it even soundslike something from a differentworld. And if you ever havestood on high on these peaks,walked along the open ledges,and taken in the view with naryanother person around youcome to understand that this ishiking at its purest. No crowds.Serene trails. A good chance tosee a moose or a bear. Andviews glorious, expansive,and stunning views. MountWashington and her neighborsin the Presidential Range can beseen in all their glory, but fromthis different vantage point theyfeel like a world away.

To hike in Evans Notch feelslike playing hooky. Its betterthan just going on a hike, itsgoing on a hike far from the

conga line of Franconia Ridgeor the Crawford Path. Its a step

back in time and into yourunbridled imagination. Its thekind of hiking you first fell inlove with when you day-dreamed about getting awayfrom it all.

So today, as I send this off to mydear editor, I think I may verywell be crazy for sharing thisspecial spot with others. Thenagain, I know it will never beoverly crowded and thats partof what makes it so dear to me.Perhaps well see you there;most likely though, we wont.

Atticus enjoying one of numerous views fromCaribou in Evans Notch.

Letter To The Editor_______________________________________I enjoyed the recent article inthe JO on the Kinder Memorial

Forest, a lasting memorial tothe life of a truly special person

Next month another tribute toRichs life will take place. The17th Annual Rich Kinder

Memorial Lumberjack Contestwill be held at the NorthHaverhill Fair on July 27th.With these memorials and trib-utes in mind I thought it wouldbe appropriate to remember

Rich once again not only forthose who knew him but forthose too young, or new to thearea, to have remembered thekind of person he was and theimpact he had on his communityand the forestry profession.

Rich had a special presenceabout him. Once having met

Rich Kinder you never forgotwho he was. You never forgothis name. He was a big man,but what really caught your eyewas that broad and friendly

smile that was so sincere andcomforting, and straight fromthe heart. The physical pres-ence I especially remember wasthe hand shake. I have bighands and like to give people a

good firm greeting, but I alwaysfelt humbled shaking his hand.

After Rich left the ExtensionService for the forest industry, Ihad the good fortune of havinghim help me, on a part timebasis, in my fledgling consult-ing forestry business. He didnot need the work but was will-ing to give me a hand in mytime of need. I was a littleuneasy wondering what hourlyrate to pay a forester of Richs

stature and experience. True to

his nature, Rich said---John ,pay me whatever you can---thatwill be fine with me. We spenta lot of quality time togetherthat year building roads andmanaging woodlots, and talkingat great lengths about forestryissues, our towns and our fami-lies. During that time I came toknow what a special person hewas.

Rich really enjoyed the physicalend of forestryoperatingequipment, using a chain saw,

planting trees, but he was at hisbest meeting and working with

people. He was a champion ofthe little guy. He especiallyenjoyed meeting with andaddressing the concerns of the

folks that have to work the hard-est---the loggers and truckersand mill workers. At heart hewas one of them. Rich Kinderwas probably the most recog-nized, trusted, respected andwell liked person within the

forestry community not only ofNH but all of New England andNY. He was the forestry profes-sions good will ambassador.

He was the pillar of his commu-nity having held most of theleadership positions in the Townof Haverhill and within hischurch. He genuinely cared for

people and would do whateverhe could to help someone out,especially the less fortunate andthose he felt were treated unfair-ly. A local farmer from E.

Haverhill, down on his luck,was taken ill with no one to dohis chores or milk his cows until

Rich volunteered his time. Forseveral months, until the farmerwas back on his feet, Rich would

come by at 4 AM every morningto do the milking and the choresand then go to his regular job.

He volunteered to do caretakingduties at his church, he ploweddriveways for those needing ahelping hand at no charge.

During his 19 years as a select-man he worked many hours withthe road crews when they were

short of help. These were just afew examples of his kindnessand generosity.

He was so humble, never one totake credit for something he haddone. He received many per-

sonal awards, but was alwaysquick to point out that it shouldhave gone to someone else, orthat he could not have done itwithout the help of others. Richwas first and foremost a familyman. He adored Jan and theirchildren and grandchildren,they were his inspiration, his

pride and joy. Their kids werebasketball players, and goodones too. Very seldom did Janand Rich miss any of their

games. Rich was well knownfor his cheerleading and exu-berance. Jan and her familyand all of the supporters of thememorials to Richs life can bevery proud of their lasting trib-utes to a very special andbeloved man, a friend to all.

John OBrienOrford, NH

The game of chicken charadingas our state budget process puts

NH citizens at risk of losingvaluable services and critical

jobs.

The Republican controlledSenate claimed it had to cut$300 million from the Housebudget. The Department of

Health and Human Serviceswhich touches nearly every res-ident of New Hampshire will behanded $40 million less than itneeds and will be forced tomake painful cuts of both servic-es and personnel.

Additionally, Republicans aremaking 50 million dollars inreckless across the board budg-et cuts that are projected to

force 700 layoffs. Just as theeconomy begins to get on its

feet, this budget will cost criti-cal jobs that support familiesand local economies. Goingalong with this scheme is noth-ing short of irresponsibility on

the part of our elected senator.

On purely partisan grounds,House and Senate Republicanshave taken positions designed todamage Governor Hassan andrebuke President Obama and

pay homage to an ideology thatavoids reality. Senate

Republicans say they refuse topass any new taxes, but we have

the red bridges and potholes toprove it. Our cigarette tax, justlowered last year, is the lowestin the Northeast and out of statebig tobacco companies are mak-ing huge profits at our expense.

To top it off, Senate Republicansnow seek to deny the expansionof Medicaid in NH and with it

pass up the infusion of approxi-mately $2.5 billion in federaldollars. The damage this willdo to our hospitals, our mentalhealth services and our strug-

gling families is immense. Anonpartisan study projects thatexpanded Medicaid would cutbad debt and charity care for

New Hampshire hospitals inhalf.

Government is instituted to pro-vide services to its citizens.These services are not hand-outs; they are paid for in prop-erty taxes, road tolls, rooms andmeals fees and so on. Wedepend on these servicestheroads, the schools, the environ-mental protections to name justa fewin order to live in this

state, get to our jobs and giveback in terms of goods, servicesand revenue. But governmentcannot do its job without a

source of revenue, andRepublicans in Concord areunwilling to support adequaterevenue for the state because of

partisan politics . The you-cant-have-your-taxes-because-we-didnt-get-our-casino men-tality belongs in the school yard,not the State House. The abhor-rence of federal funding isridiculous: would the

Republicans turn back federalhighway funds based on the

same theory?

The Republican leadership iscalling on the conference com-mittee of the budget writingcommittees to come up with areasonable compromise, butthat is an impossible request.Without any sources of revenueon the table, the only alternativewill be to accept cuts in pro-

grams and jobs to meet our bal-anced budget mandate. This isnot what we sent our represen-tatives to Concord to do. Theyare there to, in conjunction withthe Governor, keep our state

functioning on a sound fiscaland programmatic base. It isdangerous and foolhardy to do

otherwise.

Who Do You Trust?

We now know that the NSA(National Security Agency) iscapable of and has, in fact,monitored, recorded and storedthe telephone and internet com-

munication of innocentAmerican citizens . We arebeing told that this is part of thecost of doing business when itcomes to protecting us from ter-

rorists and that we should trustthe federal government to notabuse the power that this infor-mation gives them.

Does anyone remember recentrevelations that the IRS and sev-

eral other federal agenciesunder the current administra-tion have used their power totarget and harass people and

groups who disagree with this

administrations policies?

Whats that old saying aboutfool me once?

God bless Edward Snowden forrevealing this outrageous intru-

sion on the privacy of Americancitizens.

Russell T. CumbeeFranconia, NH

Privacy Is No Longer An Option

Recent news about cell phonegiant Verizon is a bit disconcert-ing. Every phone record ofevery Verizon customer is nowan open book to our govern-ment. Can we not call momwithout it being the govern-ment's business? Is there no

such thing as "personal" any-more? Alarmingly the answer isno.

No one wants a terrorist livingnext door. We do not want peo-

ple roaming our country lookingfor lives and buildings todestroy. Our FBI, CIA and mili-tary intelligence must be com-mended and praised for theirefforts to prevent heinous acts

from happening in our country.

However, our liberty is at riskwhen anyone from the govern-ment can show up at any timeand search through our homes,invade our personal property,invade our banking accountinformation, go through ourmail and family picture albums,or go through all of our comput-ers to see every web page we've

ever browsed. The books weread at the library, our newspa-per subscriptions and what webought at the grocery store isnobody else's business. I hearthe argument "If you aren't hid-ing anything then what do youcare?" I care because, as aUnited States citizen, it is aninvasion of our liberty. Oneinvasion leads to another. Theloss of freedom is slowly erod-ing in our country.

The government is supposedlyprotecting you. Then one day wewake up in fear of making amove without government per-mission.

Any invasion of our personal

lives or privacy should go

through proper channels andthe legal process of being grant-ed an investigative search war-rant. In this scenario paperswould have to be filled outexplaining why such a search isnecessary. Authorities who do

such random searches must beheld accountable for any dam-age done to the citizen's home,

family pictures, files, comput-ers, clothes or any item that hasbeen touched or mishandled inanyway.

Authorities who search withoutjust cause should be responsiblefor dry cleaning bills, carpetcleaning, painting and the pur-chase of new electronics if anyof the electronics are damaged.

If the suspicions end up true andthe raided house ends us reveal-ing someone who is plotting tohurt others then that changesthe scenario.

Those who search should neverbe allowed to destroy someone'shome and leave it in a state ofdisaster. When someone is sus-

pected as being a threat to hurt-ing anyone or suspected ofbeing a terroristic threat to a

community or our nation then ofcourse everything must be doneto determine what is going onand every precaution taken to

save lives.

The truth of the matter is that ifthe FBI invades a person's homeand does a search and they find50 guns it doesn't mean any-thing. Many people collect

guns. If the person has told peo-ple about his plans to shoot peo-ple at the movie theatre or if hehas written threatening stuff on

Face book then the authoritieshave every right to take his

guns, investigate and arrest himif they find documented facts.

The Patriot Act was established

after the 911 attacks. We will

never forget the heinous crimescommitted against our country.The question is this, "Has the

patriot act made us safer as anation?

The Patriot Act has given thegovernment more freedom toinvade any person's privacy in

Any Place, USA, but has it madeyou safer? Do you feel saferbecause of the Patriot Act?Since the Patriot Act there havebeen countless episodes of vio-lence that the new law has not

prevented throughout the states.Military base shootings, officeshootings, campus shootings,movie theatre shootings andmore.

For every terroristic act thathas been stopped we celebrateas a country and thank thoseinvolved in preventing it.

The Patriot Act needs to be edit-ed. Our citizens should onlyhave to fear criminals and ter-rorists, not government officialswith a license to violate our civilliberties. There should be acompromise and a system ofchecks and balances that pro-

tect the freedom of Americans aswell as keeping us safe.

Iam hopeful that by the timethis paper hits the shelves, that

summer would have actuallyfound us, because as Isit herewriting this, the sky has openedup once again and the rain istumbling down.

So far, Iam not overlyimpressed with the start of sum-mer. The weather has been backand forth and all over the place.Snow on Memorial day, rain bythe bucketful, wind, then hot,then raw, then cold and dampand maybe a day or two of sunmixed in there somewhere.

Problem is, on the few sunnydays, one cant enjoy them!They have been so far and fewbetween that on those sunnydays, we are all trying to catchup to mowing and garden work!Well, heres hoping that summercomes and stays for a while.

Looking at the whole picture,

fall is only a couple monthsaway! Ugh!!!

Ifor one think Mother Nature istrying to tell us something.

Okay, enough on the weather!

There are lots of things going onthis summer and throughout the

year! This year, several local

towns are celebrating their250th Anniversaries, but did

you know that there are actually13 towns throughout NH cele-brating that distinction this

year?

Lancaster, Lisbon, Haverhill,Warren, Woodstock, Thornton,Sandwich,Plymouth, Croydon,

Alstead, Gilsum, New Bostonand Candia! Funny to think

southern NH towns such asCandia or New Boston wereincorporated the same year asmany of the northern NH towns!

Seems seventy Vermont townshave celebrated their 250-yearold histories over the past two

years. And this year, 36 morevillages, towns, and cities willmark their birthdays. Locally,we have Newbury andWaterbury.

There are plenty of celebrationsplanned for the local communi-ties celebrating their anniver-

saries! All you have to do is lookthem up online, or find out fromthe local town officials whatmight be planned for a commu-nity near you.

Amongs all the birthday cele-brations, there will be plenty ofupcoming events, such as Old

Home Days and of course, thelocal fairs.

Idont want to hear anybodycomplaining that theres nothingto do here in the north country.

In fact, Ithink it is more to the

contrary! Usually theres somuch going on that you justcant take in everything!

So enjoy the summer, once itdoes get here. Take in some ofthe local flair and celebrations.

I will tell you that you wont besorry that you did!

Our troops surely won't usethese, if the Bin Laden's havethem.

BAE Systems Inc. was awardeda $66million contract for the

AN/AAR-57 common missilewarning system, according tothe Defense Dept. and NHSenator Kelly Ayotte, The con-tract is in support of foreignmilitary sales to Saudi

Arabia/United Arab Emirates,Homeland of Osama BinLaden. Who's family in 2001

put a large part of their moneyinto business ventures, includ-ing GW Bush who started thecompany Arbusto(Bush inSpanish) Energy As he built hisown business empire, Salem Bin

Laden(Osama's brother) had anintriguing relationship with the

president-to-be,GW and formerPres.GH Bush..

Is Senator Ayotte ,a Member ofthe Armed Service Committee,keeping in contact with Bin

Laden's.?

"Senator Ayotte said, as a mem-ber of the Senate Armed

Services Committee. With near-ly $17 trillion in debt, we can'tafford business as usual spend-ing. There is near unanimous

support in the Senate for cuttingfunding for the missile tonowhere,' and the legislation
