A beautiful shot of a Hooded Merganser on a local pond. The Hooded Merganser finds its prey
underwater by sight, the nictating membrane (third eyelid) is clear and acts to protect the eye
during swimming, just like a pair of goggles. It is the smallest of the three species of mergansers
found in North America. They are extremely agile swimmers and divers but awkward on land
because their legs are set far back on the body. A group of ducks has many collective nouns,
including a "brace", "flush", "paddling", "raft", and "team" of ducks.

Summer is coming and with it
comes some predictably unpre-
dictable weather which often
results in destructive wind
storms that play havoc on our
forests. Belly-crawling through
a forest of twisted and broken
trees can be a very humbling
experience. However it is
important that landowners who
find themselves in this position
remain calm, focused and realis-
tic.
Landowners often have a very
utilitarian mind-set that makes
us want to put every fallen tree
to use and not allow it to rot on
the ground. This is simply not
realistic. Fallen trees are an
essential component of the
forested landscape. Downed
trees provide critical habitat for
wildlife and add structure to the
forest floor. Even hundreds of

The White Mountain National
Forest (WMNF) is pleased to
announce that photographer
John Anderson and environ-
mental artist Kyle Browne have
been chosen as Artists in
Residence for 2013. The Artist-
in-Residence program is a part-
nership of the WMNF and the
Arts Alliance of Northern New
Hampshire (AANH). We
thought we might be able to
limit ourselves to one artist this
year, says Marianne Leberman
of the WMNF, but once again
we couldnt do it. We were too
excited about both the opportu-
nity to have a terrific photogra-
pher entirely dedicated to taking
pictures of the National Forest
including time-lapse and
panoramic images -- and to
showcase the work of an artist
dedicated to creating public,
participatory art that will help
people of all ages experience the
forest in a new way.
John Anderson of Campton,
NH, is a graduate of the Rhode
Island School of Design, with a
Bachelors of Fine Arts in
Photography. He is the owner of
On the Spot Photography, and
has been teaching photography
at Plymouth State University
since 2004.
This is the first year our panel
selected a local artist, says
Frumie Selchen, director of the
Arts Alliance. Its wonderful
that John can engage in forest-
based activities, not only during
his residency, but also before
and after. Instead of two or three
public programs, he will be
doing a whole series. As to why
a local artist who lives very near
the forest year-round would
apply for this residency, John
made a compelling case for hav-
ing the dedicated, focused time
to take the kind of pictures hes
been dreaming of for years.
Massachusetts artist Kyle
Brown is a graduate of the Pratt
Institute in Brooklyn and
received her MEd Arts,
Community and Education,
from Lesley University. She is
currently Director of the
Cambridge (MA) Creativity
Commons, which links students
and teachers to creativity
through arts integration and
project-based learning. Her resi-
dency plans include creating
two interactive site-specific
sculptures with natural materi-
als.

trees blown across the forest
floor are a natural part of the
forest ecosystem. Without dead
trees on the ground, the forest is
really quite incomplete.
When the wind causes destruc-
tion of timber in your woodlot it
is time for a walk in the woods
with your County Forester to
discuss your options. Usually
the best option is a salvage log-
ging operation if the economics
of such an endeavor make
sense. Salvaging damaged trees
from the forest simply to make
the woods look organized does
not make sense. If a salvage
operation is not economically
viable then the best alternative
is to clear your trails, regain
access to the property, and sim-
ply enjoy the dynamics of your
forest.
It is not uncommon for
landowners to look at large trees
on the ground and want to sal-
vage them for personal use or
for income. Fallen trees are
often viewed as lost income for
hardworking landowners and
sometimes this is certainly the
case. However salvage logging
in and of itself is an expensive
proposition and there must be
substantial timber available to
cut in order to pay back both the
logger and the landowner. If this
cant happen, a salvage opera-
tion doesnt make sense.
It is also true that loggers dont
want to cut just blown down
trees on a damaged woodlot.
Cutting wind damaged trees is
extremely dangerous and it has
to be worth the effort from an
economic standpoint. This often
means that standing trees must
be cut as well as the damaged
trees. This is done to move fall-
en trees out of the woods safely
and more efficiently resulting in
a cleaner, safer operation and
more money back to the
landowner.
During salvage logging opera-
tions the most realistic option is
usually clear-cutting. In this
case it is best to have a licensed
forester mark the areas that are
severely damaged and regener-
ate this forest with a clean/effi-
cient clear-cut. Outside of the
clear-cut there may be some
fallen trees scattered throughout
the forest. Some of these trees
will be accessible, however
chasing every fallen tree outside
the clear-cut is un-realistic and
can cause more harm than good
in the forest by creating un-nec-
essary damage. It is good for
the forest to leave some trees on
the ground.
The clear-cutting approach may
sound drastic to some landown-
ers but during a salvage logging
operation, it is often the best and
safest choice. I can say from
personal and professional expe-
rience (I find it hard to draw the
line between the two) that clear-
cuts, if left alone will regenerate
a new young forest. This new
forest will provide a home to an
amazing diversity of wildlife.
As salvage clear-cuts regenerate
and grow a new forest, the
landowner will have a front row
seat for watching the stages of
forest succession that make our
New England forests the
dynamic systems that they are.
Wind storms are simply a part
of this system.
Continued from page A1
Our guidelines specify that we
want to offer opportunities to
both established and emerging
artists, notes Leberman. Kyle
is a young artist whose work is
growing in scope and depth, and
were eager to see how the for-
est inspires her.
Anderson and Browne will be
on the National Forest in August
and September, with exact dates
for their residencies and public
programs to be announced in
June. Kyle will be staying at
Mead Base Conservation Center
in Center Sandwich. Friends of
Mead Base Conservation Center
have collaborated with the
WMNF and AANNH each year
to provide housing for the
Artists in Residence.
"We're delighted to continue our
partnership with the Arts
Alliance and very pleased to
have John and Kyle join us as
this years selected artists, said
Tom Wagner, Forest Supervisor
for WMNF. The Artist in
Residence program provides a
way for people to understand
and connect with public land
and its uses through art and self
- expression.
The residency offers a minimum
of a three-week period during
which the artists have time to
work on their art while living on
the forest. More information on
these programs, including many
opportunities for public partici-
pation will be available in
upcoming weeks. As in the past
each artist will also donate one
piece of work to the WMNF.
For more information about the
Artist in Residence program,

(603) 323-7302 or

Alliance (www.aannh.org) and

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,
Its good to be the county
administrator of Alameda
County, Calif. (Alameda
County been veddy, veddy good
to her). The San Francisco
Chronicle revealed that Susan
Muranishi managed to negotiate
a contract that pays her
$301,000 a year, plus equity
pay of $24,000 a year so that
she makes at least 10 percent
more than the next highest paid
official, plus longevity pay of
$54,000 a year, plus a car
allowance and that she will
be paid that total amount per
year as her pension for life (in
addition to a private pension of
$46,000 a year that the county
purchased for her). (And here I
am losing 80% of my meager
retirement to health insurance
just sayin).
Next, chutzpah! Samuel
Cutrufelli, 31, filed a lawsuit in
Sacramento County, Calif.,
claiming that Jay Leone, 90,
negligently shot him.
Cutrufelli had burglarized
Leones home, unaware that
Leone was home. When Leone
reached for one of his stashed
handguns, Cutrufelli shot him in
the jaw and then pulled the trig-
ger point-blank at Leones head
but was out of bullets. Leone
then shot Cutrufelli several
times, which Cutrufelli appar-
ently felt was entirely unneces-
sary. [Marin Independent
Journal]
Finally, cheese it, the cops!
Police are warning an 86-year-
old cheese maker she may face
legal action if she supplies
cheese for Gloucesters famous
annual cheese-rolling event.
The traditional event involves
revelers chasing a 7-lb. wheel of
Double Gloucester down a steep
hill according to the BBC.
Grandmother Diana Smart, who
makes the cheese for the event
said she had been warned by
police. It made me feel pretty
angry... theres not a lot we can
do, she said. Mrs. Smart, who
has made cheese for the event
for 25 years, said police had
warned her she could be regard-
ed as responsible if anybody
was injured. Cheese rolling
dates back to at least the early
19th Century, but police want to
block the annual event because
they say it is dangerous and
attracts more spectators than the
site can handle.
Well played, WearEver, well
played. I bought a small frying
pan. The label has a seal on it
with a banner that says USA!
When I got home, I looked clos-
er (my eyes arent what they
used to be). The label reads,
Engineered in the USA. The
pan was made in China. Just
between us, I am surprised no
company has started putting
such devious seals that read
Proudly Sold in the USA.
Jeff Bauman, the young man
who lost both legs in the Boston
bombing has been showing up
at Boston sporting events on TV
what a great attitude! He
should be an inspiration to
e v e r y o n e !
Feeling hungry? How about
tempura-battered fried
Tarantula? Theyre frozen then
defrosted before bug chef David
George Gordon cuts off the
abdomen, singes off hairs with a
lighter and dunks the remaining
spider body into batter. You
just have to brown it up for a
couple of minutes. Then I add
my secret ingredient, a pinch of
smoked paprika for flavor. The
best part is the legs, said
Gordon, speaking at an insect
cooking demonstration in
Hollywood aimed at showcas-
ing insects as a sustainable food.
Other treats being served up at
the third annual Bug-A-Thon at
Ripleys Believe It or Not!
Hollywood on include Scorpion
Scaloppine and dishes consist-
ing of the chefs choice bugs:
grasshoppers, cockroaches and
other savory surprises.
Considered the planets most
sustainable source of eco-
friendly and inexpensive animal
protein, the practice of eating
insects is practiced globally by
two-thirds of the worlds popu-
lation. Other bugs deemed good
enough to eat at the fest include
ants, worms and termites as well
as caterpillars, dung beetles and
wasps. [Reuters]
The AP carried a Bit in which a
German doctors say a man spent
15 years with a pencil in his
head following a childhood
accident. Aachen University
Hospital says the 24-year-old
man from Afghanistan sought
help in 2011 after suffering for
years from headaches, constant
colds and worsening vision in
one eye. A scan showed that a 4-
inch pencil was lodged from his
sinus to his pharynx and had
injured his right eye socket. The
unnamed man said he didnt
know how the pencil got there.
The German doctors removed
the pencil and say the man has
recovered.
Finally, not good criminal
material here. Marius Ionescu,
31, was allegedly burgling a
house when he heard a noise.
He hid under a bed and called
police to report that someone
had broken into the house he
was stealing from. When offi-
cers arrived, they discovered
that no, he was the only person
in the house. Police say what he
heard was the familys cat.

Talking
About
Our
Schools
Mary Snowman, Principal
Bath Village School
As we near the end of another
school year, I am pleased to
reflect on the positive changes
that are happening at the Bath
Village School.
This year was our first year of
all day kindergarten. With
many of our students entering
kindergarten with little or no
preschool experience, all day
kindergarten has been an
extremely powerful catalyst to
prepare our youngest students
for the rigorous requirements
that the new Common Core
State Standards require.
The Bath Village School contin-
ues to participate in the READY
for Kindergarten Program.
Originally, Bath was given the
opportunity to participate in the
READY for Kindergarten
Program through a grant from
the State of New Hampshire.
This year, the Bath Village
School Board supported the
continuation of the READY for
Kindergarten Program. This
program provides parents with
educational games and materi-
als that they can use to help their
children prepare to enter kinder-
garten. Parents are given
instruction by trained BVS staff
members on how to use the
materials. This program also
provides parents with a continu-
ous overview of what children
are expected to know and be
able to do when they enter
kindergarten in the areas of
reading, math and social inter-
actions. School personnel have
the opportunity to forge rela-
tionships with the parents and
students who will be a part of
the Bath Village School in the
near future.
Teachers have spent time creat-
ing units of study in a variety of
subject areas to address differ-
entiated instruction and aligning
units to the common core. They
have participated in staff devel-
opment to help them with this
process. All staff participated in
helping students study the rich
history of Bath and showcased
these efforts at Bath History
Night on May 1st.
Several new programs have
been used this year in the areas
of spelling and math fact fluen-
cy. Teachers have taken on
these responsibilities and will
be discussing how the programs
have worked and looking at the
data that they have gathered.
In the 2013/20134 school year,
BVS staff members will be
involved in continuing the ini-
tiatives that have been put in
place this year. All staff will
take part in the RTI process as
we use district initiatives that
assess and record student data.
We continue to appreciate the
overwhelming support of the
Bath community and the many
volunteers that help sustain the
many activities that make BVS

A Walk Back In Time: The Secret
Of Cellar Holes__________________________
Special Friday Evening Program At Quincy
Bog Natural Area________________________
The New Hampshire Humanities Council and the Joseph Patch
Library in Warren have teamed up again to bring another wonder-
ful program here to Warren on Saturday, June 8 at 1:00 pm. In this
ongoing series made possible by grants from the NH Humanities
Council, we will explore aspects of the unique history and culture
of our region.
Adair Mulligan, author of The Gunstock Parish: A History of
Gilford, will host this program exploring the stories connected to
the many abandoned cellar holes in our area. What do these old
stone foundations tell us about how our area was settled and
shaped? And what were the changes that led to them being aban-
doned? Mulligan will share these stories and insights on how a
town's history can stimulate the future.
As always this program is free and open to the public. The Joseph
Patch Library is located at 320 Route 25 in Warren, NH. For more
information, call 764-9072.

The Quincy Bog Natural Area announces a Friday evening pro-

light? What are they called, what do they eat, why are they attract-
ed to light and where do they go when the summer ends? Join
independent researcher Deb Lievens for an informative presenta-
tion about moths, followed by moth viewing on the porch of the
Quincy Bog Nature Center. Maybe well even get to see a lovely

tograph these fascinating creatures.
The program will be presented at the Quincy Bog Nature Center,

"Our participants have a great
time learning in the company of
other women," said B.O.W.
Program Coordinator Tina
Davenport of the New
Hampshire Fish and Game
Department. "They are truly
motivated when they see that
outdoor skills can add such an
exciting new dimension to their
lives."
New Hampshire's Becoming an
Outdoors-Woman (BOW) pro-
gram is co-sponsored by the
New Hampshire Fish and Game
Department (wildnh.com) and
the New Hampshire Wildlife
Federation (nhwf.org).
Quick Question:
A fisher, fox, or coyote is in my
yard going after my cats,
small dog, or livestock. What
can I do?
The best thing to do is to keep
your cat inside, especially at
night, which is when these
predatory animals are most
active. Fisher, fox and coyote
are all species located through-
out New Hampshire that prey
upon small animals, including
squirrels, chipmunks and rabbits
-- as well as domestic cats, very
small dogs, or livestock such as
chickens. When your pets or
livestock are roaming outside,
they are leaving their scent
wherever they go. This is what
attracts these predators. If you
feel you must let your cat out,
you may want to consider being
outside with it, since fisher, fox
and coyote keep their distance
from humans. If you have a
small dog, be outside when it is
outside. If you have livestock,
such as chickens, keep them in a
pen instead of letting them
roam. You can contact N.H. Fish
and Game's Wildlife Division to
contact Wildlife Control
Operators to remove the fisher,
fox or coyote, but be fore-
warned -- as long as your cat,
dog or livestock is allowed to
roam, other predators may be
attracted in.
"If you talk to the animals, they
will talk with you and you will
know each other. If you do not
talk to them you will not know
them, and what you do not know,
you will fear. What one fears, one
destroys..."

The sun is out and warm and
summer has begun. Its funny,
my favorite season to hike is the
autumn and yet when I day-
dream about a walk in the
woods (or when I used to before
moving up to the mountains) it
was always in conditions like
this. Spring giving way to sum-
mer; early morning sunlight
splashing through the rich green
leaves of the forest; a clean,
rushing stream singing loudly
and beckoning us to its shore.
A few years ago after I rediscov-
ered the mountains of my child-
hood but still lived in
Newburyport and covered the
light and the dark sides of small
city politics, I found myself sit-
ting in the city council chambers
with its walls adorned by stately
and often stale photographs of
mayors gone by while watching
with some bemusement the
modern day players. Such a
scene used to fascinate me but
after the mountains called it was
never the same again. Id sit
with my pen and pad of paper
on my lap but I wasnt paying
attention to a word that was
said. Instead I pictured myself
sitting by some mountain
stream under an awning of elec-
tric green and feeling as ambi-
tious as Tom Sawyer or Huck
Finn as I let the day pass by.
Youd think Id be most enam-
ored by the vast views from the
summits or ledges along the
way. But thats not the case. I
long for a simpler time and dan-
gling bare feet into running
water at the end of a hike is
what captures my imagination.
The forest comes to life around
a stream. Mosses rich and
moist, animal tracks coming and
going, fish seen on occasion, the
white froth of the fast moving
current over the rocks. It all
calls to me.
And on Tuesday I listened and
then we sat and relaxed just as I
always think of doing. There
was a gentle breeze and the
black flies were nonexistent so
we werent in any hurry to get
back to the car. So we sat and
we watched and we listened
and I smiled. A soulful almost-
guilty smile that originated deep
from within and bubbled up as
can only happen when you find
yourself playing hooky from the
world.
A month beforehand I had taken
a tumble down our back steps
and broken some bones, includ-
ing the metatarsal leading up to
the big toe of my left foot. Not
only could I not hike, I couldnt
wear anything other than my
Keen sandals. I did manage to
limp my way up the auto road to
Cathedral Ledge and climbed
the easy trail to Black Cap
Mountain in my Keens, but I
couldnt do anything else. They
were four very long weeks,
especially since the weather was
perfect for hiking.
However, on Tuesday my hiking
shoe went over my foot for the
first time and after I laced it up
it gave me some support and
thats all I needed to get me to
one of our local hikes an easi-
er jaunt up Table Mountain.
The trail leaves Bear Notch
Road toward the northern end in
Bartlett. It starts out easy
enough with a mostly flat woods
walk before a hop, skip, and a
jump over a small stream. Then
we followed a larger stream
with wondrous cascades and a
loud roar due to the rains of the
previous days. We stopped and
watched for a bit but then start-
ed our ascent.
Table Mountain is a curious
place. The climb gets tougher
as we reach higher toward the
ledges just below the summit at
1.9 miles but few ever make it
to the summit and we never
have. You see, its not right on
the trail. Its reached through a
thick mishmash of trees you
have to bushwhack to and
theres no view. So in all these
years Atticus and I have stuck to
the nearby ledges and the view
south to the Sandwich Range,
the highlight of which is a dif-
ferent, almost-unrecognizable
view of Chocorua. Then your
eyes take you west to
Passaconaway and Whiteface.
The outlook is refreshing
because it has you looking at
mountains youve seen many
times before in an entirely dif-
ferent way. The first time we sat
there and took in the view I had
to ask, Now what the heck are
we looking at?
The trail is mostly moderate on
the way to the 2,610 foot moun-
taintop which is reached in 1.9
miles. On Tuesday the sun was
warm and noontime was
approaching so we chose not to
bake in temperatures that
seemed hotter than they actually
were. Instead we made our way
down the ledges and back the
way we came. My foot had a
difficult time whenever I needed
to push off of the ball of my foot
on the way up, but it was man-
ageable. The real pain came on
the descent over rocks and
roots. But that made it all the
more special when we reached
the cascades on our return trip
and Atticus and I sat on plush
green moss and I took off my
shoes and put my aching foot in
the cool water.
The Irish poet William Butler
Yeats would have loved the set-
ting with his imagination full of
the natural kingdoms of little
people. And it, in fact, did feel
a bit magical as we lay back and
took a nap to the song for the
birds singing and the water has-
tening by.
Yes, these are the endless times
that seem to run together that
Im sure I will always remem-
ber. Views are beautiful and
awe-inspiring and bring me to
heavenly places, but sitting by a
stream by ourselves without
another human in sight is down-
right special. Its the stuff of
daydreams and its the reason
we made the move up here.
Fortunately for us the White
Mountains have many such
treasured places to visit.

In response to BEF in a recent
issue:
Here's my feedback on big fancy
banks, I call them Taj Mahals!
And then I look at them and
think what lousy percentages
they give on our savings, etc.
Even before I saw your com-
ments, I brought it up at a knit-
ting group session. They all
agreed with me about new bank
buildings.
The other thing about banks is
when we see in the news, them
presenting big checks to worthy
causes. I think, hey that's my
money you're giving away.
The bank located in North
Woodstock did a renovation last
year. It is a small bank and they
stayed small!
In an article about the new
shopping centers in Plymouth,
there was a comment about why
did we need another Market
Basket, since there was one in
Tilton. Well, a drive from North
Woodstock to Plymouth is cer-
tainly different than one Tilton!!
Gas and time wise!
Sincerely,
Helen Gilman

Is Anyone Really Surprised?
President Obama and members
of his administration have
repeatedly and frequently
sought to undermine the
Constitution, circumvent the
rule of law and neglect or abuse
the power and responsibilities
entrusted to them by the
American people. When such
actions are revealed and they
are confronted about these
behaviors, they tend to respond
with answers like I dont
know, I dont remember or
What difference does it
make?
Is anyone really surprised that
agencies under Mr. Obamas
control would target and harass
people who oppose or threaten
his attempts to place a strangle-
hold on our liberties while
advancing his
progressive/socialist agenda?
Does anyone really think that
agencies of the Federal govern-
ment would dare to carry out
this assault on freedom if they
did not believe that they had his
approval?
Its time to wake up and smell
the coffee people, this is
America.

The Three R's
According to the EPA:
The items people throw out all
take up energy to make:Many of
them are not biogradable and
may take centuries to break
down.according to the US
Enviromental Protection
Agency(EPA),Americans pro-
duced 4.3 lbs of trash per per-
son per day in 2009 Reducing,
reusing and recyling..the 3R's..
are the ways consumers can
minimize the volume of waste
they generate.
Reducing: Reducing is the first
and most effective of the three
R's.It means reducing your con-
sumption or buying less.
Designing items like plastic
bottles, utensils, buying used
goods, mending clothes instead
of buying ones and consuming
less electricity are all examples
of ways you can reduce in your
own life.
Reusing: Rather than throwing
out items like clothing or food
jars, "bicycles, lawnmowers,
l e a f
blowers,....consumers,handy-
men, seniors can find new uses
for them, they can repair and
resell or give away to those less
fortunate."....and thereby
reduce their consumption of
new resources.Composting,
using jars to store beverages or
leftover food, and trading or
selling used DVD's, rather than
throwing them out, are all good
examples of ways people can
reuse.
Reuisng is the second best most
effective of the three R's,like
reducing, it avoids creating
waste rather than trying to recy-
cle it once it's already there.
"As for bicycles, a child with no
bike,can be the happiest kid on
the block, to go pass a seniors
home, seeing a sign on a bike
"free", put there just for him or
her, when previously it was in
the dump, ready to be crushed,
picked up by a retired senior,
who may have spent all day
gathering up parts to make this
bike work again or a fixed up
lawnmower for a young couple
just starting out, to make it work
again...this is
truly....,reducing,reusing,and
recycling"
Recycling: Recycling is the
third of the three R's.Recycling
extracts valuable material from
items that might otherwise be
considered thrash and turns
them into new
products.Communities have a
variety of recyling program,
such as curbside pickup of recy-
clables,drop-off centers,buy-
back centers that pay you for
valuable items and deposit-
refund programs.Deposit -
refund programs which include
include a deposit as part of the
product price,refund consumer
when they recycle such items as
soda cans and plastic bottles.As
a consumer you can also help
recycling by purchasing prod-
ucts made from recycled materi-
al, such as toilet paper made
from recycled pulp.
Why is it Important?
Manufacturers extracting natu-
ral resources, such as bauxite or
aluminum ore, and refining
them to make products use ener-
gy in the process.Often, burning
fossil fuels generates this ener-
gy. When people throw those
items away, they send them to
landfills where it may take cen-
turies or longer to break down
completely.Reducing,reusing,
and recycling help reduce
humanity's enviromental foot-
print, carbon dioxide emissions
and energy use and limits the
amount of landfill space people
create. These savings can be
substantial :Recyling aluminum
uses only 5% of the enrgy
required to refine
aluminum.That's why the three
R's are the basic tenets of mod-
ern enviromentalism.
"Rather than crushing that
bike, or lawnmower and ship-
ping it to China,maybe to be
made into a weapon, or only to
buy it back again, maybe as a
can opener, not always a rea-
sonable or practicable means, it
may be effective in the short
term, but not in our lifetime, our
childrens lifetime or their chil-
dren.
Also, keeping a senior citizen,
young, functional and produc-
tive as well as helping others in
their lives and the enviroment,
who gets joy out of fixing things,
a broken bike and making a
child happy may be worth the
small loss of the profit from that
bike or lawnmower. If thats all it
takes, put a "Tip Jar" at your
incenerator for that broken bike
and lawnmower.
There is not always a need for
"financial profit" in everything
we do. A busy senior,A smile
from a child is worth so much
more."

Here is another helpful hint for Eating Better on a Budget:
Easy on your wallet...Certain foods are typically low-cost options
all year round. Try beans for a less expensive protein food. For
vegetables, buy carrots, greens or potatoes. As for fruits, apples
and bananas are good choices

NOTICE
Well, Memorial Day 2013 has
come and gone already! Around
here, that means summer is just
about over!! Not really, but
pretty close. Actually, there was
snow this past Memorial Day in
the area! I feel sorry for those
who made plans, came to NH to
camp and ran in to fierce winds
and temps anywhere from the
30's to 40's depending on where
you were at any given time.
Mount Washington had wind
chills around zero! So yes, wel-
come to summer in the north
country!
The reason I bring up Memorial
Day Weekend is two fold. First
the cold and snow, yes, but here
in the area we were graced with
the presence of The Wall! The
American Veterans Traveling
Tribute. The Wall was at the
North Haverhill Fairgrounds
over the long Memorial Day
Weekend.
My wife, my daughter and I vis-
ited on Friday eve, May 24th.
The Wall is actually an 80%
replica of the Vietnam
Memorial. Although, there were
plenty of other things to look at
also.
Personally, I didn't know what
to expect. I have never been to
the big wall nor have I ever seen
the traveling wall before. This
was to be my first time.
I walked in to the area that The
Wall was set up. I have to admit,
at that moment in time, I was
taken aback, I was in awe and
within a few seconds, my eyes
were welled up with tears. I did-
n't know what came over me,
but I think it was seeing just how
large the wall was and at how
many names were actually on it.
Maybe it was simply seeing how
many people had paid the ulti-
mate sacrifice for this one war.
It is something that is very diffi-
cult to explain, unless you expe-
rience it yourself. It was a very
overwhelming moment. It really
is a speechless moment. What
else can I say.
After viewing the wall, there
were several other displays set
up. The World War II display
got my attention as my dad was
in World War II. Then there was
a display for lives lost in the
War on Terror and a display for
those who lost their lives on
9/11 among a myriad of other
displays. Overwhelming? You
bet.
I think some of the difficult part
for me was watching as family
members and friends knelt
before The Wall, placed flowers
and rubbed their fingers across
names. Watching as they tried
explaining to their children and
grandchildren what this moment
was all about. I am not one to be
speechless, but..........
I would like to take a moment to
thank not only those who have
sacrificed their lives throughout
history, but for those who con-
tinue to give their all for us
today. Many times it takes some-
thing like The Wall to make peo-
ple aware of just how many peo-
ple gave their lives for our free-
doms, how many families lost
family members and how many
friends have been lost over the
years. The ultimate price of
freedom.
Thank you to all those who
worked so hard to bring this dis-
play to the area. Not only is it an
eye opener and an educational
experience, but in many cases, a
once in a lifetime event that will
leave one speechless.
Nobody Asked, Just My
Opinion... ~BEF
To The Haverhill and Newbury
Communities:
American Veterans Traveling
Tribute (AVTT) had the oppor-
tunity to bring the Cost of
Freedom Tribute to Haverhill
NH last week/weekend in con-
junction with the
Haverhill/Newbury 250th
Celebration. Wed like to take
the opportunity thank everyone
involved with making this event
a reality and to the community
itself for welcoming our organi-
zation and this patriotic and
educational event into
Haverhill.
Wed like to extend a special
thank you to the Town of
Haverhill for sponsoring this
event and to Wayne Fortier and
the Haverhill/Newbury 250th
Event Committee for their coor-
dination efforts. Wayne and his
teams support, hard work and
dedication were essential to a
successful event! It was evident
that a lot of hours went into
planning this event and the
attention to detail was remark-
able!
The event kicked off with a won-
derful escort into town! What a
tribute to our fallen heroes!
Wed like to thank Chief Bryon
Charles with the Haverhill
Police Department for coordi-
nating this ride and also to all
law enforcement officers that
assisted with ensuring the safety
of the route. To all riders and
vehicles that participated in the
honor escort, thank you!
Wed like to thank the North
Haverhill Fairgrounds for pro-
viding a wonderful venue and to
all of the event volunteers for
their dedication to the various
event efforts. The setup and tear
down crews were great, the
Locator Area was faithfully
staffed and the local police were
kind enough to serve as the
Security for the event. Without
the hard work of so many, this
event would not have been pos-
sible!
The ceremonies throughout the
time the Cost of Freedom
Tribute was on display were
wonderful. Wed like to thank
those involved with coordinat-
ing the ceremonies as well as all
ceremony participants! So many
were involved from the local
communities and it was evident
that your area is filled with
patriots and those that really
understand the true cost of free-
dom.
To the communities of Haverhill
and Newbury - thank you for
welcoming us into your commu-
nity and for taking the time to
honor, respect and remember
our active duty, veteran and
fallen heroes.
We very much look forward to
returning to Haverhill in the
future.
Respectfully,
Leah DeLuzio -
AVTT Event Coordinator

Inspiring Words for You!
Dear Friends, Pslam 98 says, O sing unto
the Lord a new song; for he hath done marvel-
lous things his right hand, and his holy arm,
hath gotten him the victory. The Lord hath
made known his salvation: his righteousness
hath he openly shewed in the sight of the hea-
then. He hath remembered his mercy and his
truth toward the house of Israel: all the ends of
the earth have seen the salvation of our God.
Make a joyful noise unto the Lord, all the earth:
make a loud noise, and rejoice, and sing praise.
Sing unto the Lord with the harp; with the harp,
and the voice of a psalm. With trumpets and
sound of cornet make a joyful noise before the
Lord, the King. Let the sea roar, and the fulness
thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein.
Let the floods clap their hands: let the hills be
joyful together. Before the Lord; for he cometh
to judge the earth: with righteousness shall he
judge the world, and the people with equity. At
this beautiful time of year, where eveything
shouts of of God's creation, take a moment and
look around at all the beauty and praise God!

The New Hampshire
Association of Counties
(NHAC) established the Robert
C. Prescott award in 2013 to rec-
ognize those County
Correctional professionals who
exemplify professionalism, dedi-
cation and service. Officer
Prescott was killed in the line of
duty at the Rockingham County
Jail in 1971 when a prisoner,
using a makeshift knife, stabbed
him to death. He died from his
injuries before he reached the
Exeter Hospital.
The first ever award was pre-
sented to Captain Roland
Lafond of the Grafton County
Department of Corrections, dur-
ing services recognizing law
enforcement personnel from
both State and County
Corrections. The ceremony was
held at the Merrimack County
Department of Corrections on
May 16th.
LT. OKeefe, Training
Coordinator at the Merrimack
Dept. of Corrections stated that
The reason Captain Lafond
was chosen was due to his 110%
teaching style. He teaches with
extreme enthusiasm and passion
and this, in my opinion, was the
best way to open up the acade-
my. His class, "Role of a
Corrections Officer" was always
the first class at the academy.
Not only was it his demeanor but
also his professional appear-
ance.

Pease Public Library in
Plymouth is pleased to present
Books and Blooms June 19-21
at the library. Members of
Ashland Garden Club will once
again challenge themselves to
design floral arrangements
inspired by a favorite book. The
outstanding designs will be dis-
played throughout the library to
be discovered and enjoyed one
at a time.
Books and Blooms reprises a
stunning 2011 show that includ-
ed floral designs paired with
such diverse titles as
Cleopatra, Botany of
Desire, Pinkalicious and
Raising Twins. The show will
be open during library hours,
Wednesday 10-8 p.m., Thursday
and Friday, 10-5 p.m.
The Ashland Garden Club
(AGC) has more than 60 mem-
bers representing 12 towns.
AGC is a non-profit organiza-
tion that promotes education
and provides advanced studies
in horticulture conservation,
environmental protection, beau-
tification and floral design. The
club supports a local scholar-
ship at Plymouth Regional High
School and members donate
their time to Senior Center
Garden Therapy in Plymouth.
They also carry on beautifica-
tion projects in Ashland and
hold a plant sale in each spring.
Together and individually the
members have won an
impressive number of state
and national awards.
Especially notable are their
many honors at the New
England Flower Show and
their participation in Art in
Bloom at the Museum of
Fine Arts, both in Boston.
They have also held shows at
the Karl Drerup Gallery at
Plymouth State University.
Pease Public Library is hon-
ored to host their current
show.
With Books and Blooms
2013, as a backdrop, the
library will host three pro-
grams that are especially
planned for those interested in
the skill and art of arranging
flowers or viewing flower
arrangements with more under-
standing.
June 10 at 7 p.m., Linda Pare,
award winning floral designer
and owner of Mountain Laurel
Flowers, a member of the
American Institute of Floral
Design, will demonstrate flower
design at its most sophisticated.
The program title, Color is
Beautiful :An Artistic Journey
of Flowers Focusing on the
Element of Color, speaks for
itself. Whether you are a skilled
designer yourself or new at the
venture, there will be much to
learn and much to appreciate.
June 19 at 7 p.m. Tamara Mann,
Penny Huynen and Michelle
Chamberlain, clay artists, own-
ers of Community Clay Center,
Plymouth, will show various
and varied ways to add interest
to flower arrangements with
imaginative containers. They
will also demonstrate how to
intermingle flowers and gardens
with ornaments and creative
walkways. They call their pres-
entation From Dirt to Dirt :
Containers, Planters, Vases and
Your Gardens.
June 20 at 7 p.m. Antoinette
Drouart, owner of Ikebana
Flowers, certified by Ikebana
Sogetsu School, Tokyo, Japan,

1. Name the group that wrote
and released "Mr. Blue Sky."
2. Which singer was born
Ezekiel Christopher Montanez?
What's his most well-known
song?
3. Where did the phrase "Ob-
La-Di, Ob-La-Da" come from?
4. Who was "Sir Duke" written
about?
5. What song contains this lyric:
"A fine little girl, she wait for
me; me catch a ship across the
sea, I sailed the ship all alone; I
never think I'll make it home."
Answers
1. The Electric Light Orchestra,
in 1977. In the beginning, this
English group was more popu-
lar in the U.S. than in the U.K.
ELO released 11 studio albums
in its first 15 years.
2. Chris Montez of "Let's
Dance" fame (1962). The song
was heard in the 1978 film
"National Lampoon's Animal
House."
3. A Jamaican friend of Paul
McCartney used to answer the
question "What's happening?"
with "Ob-la-di, ob-la-da, life
goes on, bra."
4. Duke Ellington. Stevie
Wonder's 1977 hit also mentions
other jazz greats like Count
Basie.
5. "Louie, Louie," the song that
caused so much parental angst
in 1963. Concerned about
rumors of alleged filthy lyrics,
even the FBI got into the act and
launched a 30-month investiga-
tion. Truth: It's a sailor's lament.

Dear EarthTalk: I'm concerned
about toxic ingredients in my
cleaning supplies, especially
now that I have young children.
Where can I find safer alterna-
tives?
-- Betsy E., Hartford, CT
It is true that many household
cleaners contain potentially
toxic substances, so parents
especially should make an effort
to keep them out of the reach of
children or, better yet, replace
them with safer alternatives.
We use a wide array of scents,
soaps, detergents, bleaching
agents, softeners, scourers, pol-
ishes and specialized cleaners
for bathrooms, glass, drains and
ovens to keep our homes
sparkling and sweet-smelling,
reports the Organic Consumers
Association. But [many] con-
tribute to indoor air pollution,
are poisonous if ingested and
can be harmful if inhaled or
touched. The group adds that
household cleaning products are
responsible for almost 10 per-
cent of all toxic exposures
reported to U.S. poison control
centers, with more than half of
cases involving kids under six
years old.
According to the Washington
Toxics Coalition, leading
offenders include corrosive
drain cleaners, oven cleaners
and toilet bowl cleaners.
Contact with these chemicals
can cause severe burns on the
eyes and skin and can damage
the throat and esophagus if
ingested. The chlorine and
ammonia contained in some can
each cause similar problems,
and the hazardous gases
unleashed when they combine
can be lethal. Other ingredients
to avoid for many reasons
include diethanolamine (DEA),
triethanolamine (TEA), 1,4-
dioxane, ethoxylated alcohols,
butyl cellosolve (aka ethylene
glycol monobutyl ether), and p-
nonylphenol.
Meanwhile, the fragrances
added to many cleaning prod-
ucts can cause respiratory irrita-
tion, headaches and other symp-
toms in those with chemical
sensitivities, allergies or asthma.
And since fragrance formulas
are considered trade secrets,
manufacturers arent required to
disclose constituent ingredients,
leaving even educated con-
sumers in the dark regarding
what kind of nasty chemicals
they may be spreading around
their homes just to, ironically,
make their cleaning products
smell less chemically.
Fortunately there are plenty of
safer alternatives available
today, but deciding which ones
are truly healthier or just
designed to look that way isnt
so easy. Thats where the
Environmental Working Group
(EWG) comes in. The groups
Guide to Healthy Cleaning
rates and reviews over 2,100
household cleaning products on
the basis of health and environ-
mental safety. EWG lists top
products in each cleaning cate-
goryfrom dishwashing and
laundry detergents to kitchen
and bath cleaning to floor and
furniture careand also offers a
label decoder that helps con-
sumers learn how to spot trouble
on product labels and ingredient
lists. Some of the brands that
garner high marks from EWG in
more than one category include
Ecover, Earth Friendly
Products, Seventh Generation
and Green Shield. Look for
these online as well as at Whole
Foods or other markets with big
selections of healthy or natural
products.
EWG also maintains a Hall of
Shame where it lists cleaning
products that either green-
wash consumers with mislead-
ing label information or contain
hazardous ingredients (or are
banned abroad but still available
in the U.S.). EWG makes all of
this information free on its web-
site, but a $5 donation will get
you a wallet card packed with
tips on how to read home clean-
ing product labels and shop
smarter.

Senayit at the
Green House
Murphy felt it. And sure enough
she was claiming her spot on the
dance floor as were about half
the packed house last Saturday
night at the Green House for the
return of Senayit with Pam
McCann and Brotherfly. The
expectations were high and on
this night, and exceeded. The
dance floor was full from the
middle of the first set, and those
still seated were bobbing and
swaying in there seats to the
funky beats being laid down.
We were first treated to this
musical combination back on
April 26 as they ventured into
their first live performance.
From the first number we all
knew that we were witnessing
musical magic in the making so
when an unexpected cancella-
tion had this foursome filling in
a vacancy only four short weeks
later we were ready. Often the
7PM Saturday evening start at
the Green House gets off to a
slower start and builds during
the evening, but not this night as
by 7PM there was hardly a park-
ing spot to be found or an
empty seat inside. Anticipation
was crackling in the air and with
the first song the magic was
unleashed!
A balanced mixture of original
songs and covers, we were treat-
ed to fully orchestrated versions
of many Senayit songs such as
Man Enough Soldier Boy
and my all time favorite Top
Hat along with new arrange-
ments of some popular covers as
all were grooving to the funky
reggae versions of old favorites
such as the Stones Wild
Horses and the Johnny Cash hit
Ring of Fire. Along with
other standard favorites such as
Knock on Wood and
Superstitious the energy just
seemed to build and flow
through out the evening.
A brief chat with the exhausted
band members after the gig, I
was surrounded by faces a glow
with what they just had accom-
plished. The conversation kept
circling around the simple fact
that they all love what they are
doing and feel so fortunate to
have found each other, and
when asked about their goals
they simply said that they just
want to keep this magic going!
The band is made up of Senayit
on lead vocals and guitar, Pam
McCann on lead vocals and
drums, Mike Sundman on gui-
tars and Sam Winn on Bass.
Pam, Mike and Sam had formed
a trio prior to meeting Senayit,
already laying the groundwork
for the unexpected meeting. The
talent within is so complimenta-
ry, each player supporting and
blending in perfect harmony.
Sam and Mike have been play-
ing together for the better part of
two decades, and Pam has been
part of the regional music scene
since the early eighties. All
experienced and talented, the
mixture of Senayits and Pams
vocals will send chills down
your spine and the interaction of
the rhythm section is sure to
keep you on your feet.
And as for Murphy? She stayed
on the dance floor the entire
night! And as she is only 5 years
old I am sure she will remember
this night for a lifetime!
GRAFTON COUN TY
COMMISSIONERS
ANNOUNCE OPENING
OF BIOMASS PLANT AT
HAVERHILL COUNTY
COMPLEX ON JUNE 12
Little did the Grafton County
Commissioners know that back
in the summer of 2008 that it
would take almost five years to
see their proposed wood chip
biomass plant come to fruition
in June 2013! Watching the cost
of heating the County Complex
continuing to rise with one win-
ters bill at $600,000 to heat all
the buildings in Haverhill, then-
Commissioner Martha Richards
of Holderness decided it had to
change. Even Commissioner
Ray Burton said it was time to
get off foreign oil! Grafton
County citizen volunteers were
encouraged to join an alterna-
tive energy committee after
Rep. Carol Freidrich (D-
Wentworth) said she would only
support green energy and
encouraged a study group. To
that end and many months later
a report was shared with the
County Delegation that showed
a wood chip biomass plant was
the right choice for heating the
County buildings efficiently in a
much less costly manner, pro-
duce far less pollution, use a
renewable fuel source from our
own north country forests, and
employ locals for a long term
project.
Former Commissioner Martha
Richards secured permission
from the commissioners to con-
tinue seeking the best method of
heating the County Complex
buildings with the volunteer
committee. She kept the
Commissioners and Delegation
informed of the committees
findings until the recommenda-
tion to take a vote occurred.
The County Delegation voted
20-0 in May 2012 to move
ahead on building the biomass
plant. Construction started in
October 2012 and the new plant
is located between the new
Department of Corrections and
the farm buildings.
Approximately 1600 tons of
woodchips per year will be used
(about two truckloads per week
in the heating season) and a
Grafton County wood chip pur-
veyor has the contract to pro-
vide the chips. With the $2.7
million savings from the
Department of Corrections proj-
ect, the $2.7 million cost for the
biomass plant will not incur any
new taxes. Additional funding
came from a successful grant
application made to the
Department of Energy for
$378,000 with the help of the
North Country Resource
Conservation and Development
Area Council. Fuel needs will
go from approximately 90,000
gallons down to 9000 gallons
saving $279,000 and when com-
bined with the wood chip cost
the net savings will be $195,000
in the first year!
The public is cordially invited to
the Grand Opening with a rib-
bon cutting of the biomass plant
on Wednesday, June 12 at
10:00AM at the County
Complex in North Haverhill.
State legislators, county com-
missioners, construction teams,
engineers and many other lumi-
naries are invited and there will
be light refreshments offered.
Come see the newest addition to
the Grafton County Complex
making our heating costs more
efficient and green for every-
one! For any questions please
call 787-6941.

The NH Preservation Society
has announced that May is
Preservation Month, and this
years theme is See, Save and
Celebrate! Like other small
towns across New Hampshire
and the country, the very small
town of Dorchester, NH is faced
with the crumbling of its histor-
ical buildings. Again like many
towns, Dorchester was success-
ful on completing some work on
its historic buildings during the
year before the countrys 1976
bicentennial celebration.
However, the last 37 years have
seen money and interest wane in
terms of preservation of historic
structures. In a small town like
Dorchester, without a large
number of residents, money is
very tight. To top off the prob-
lems of historical renovation,
the NH state legislature has
taken to transferring money,
that many people feel was legal-
ly bound for historic and envi-
ronmental concerns in the state,
from LCHIP to the general fund.
The ability to access other grant
funds for historic renovation of
small structures in small popu-
lation centers has become
impossible. So what is a Town
like Dorchester to do?
Dorchester, NH is the location
of a one room schoolhouse built
in 1808. Functional as an area
school until the time of its clo-
sure in 1936, this structure
served the children and other
residents of Dorchester for 128
years and in recent years as a
historical museum. As a histor-
ical museum it continued to
serve the citizens of Dorchester
and New Hampshire. Located
on the Town Common (one of
few remaining traditional New
Hampshire commons), this two
hundred and five year old struc-
ture remains a significant part of
the Dorchester Historic District.
The building is not large, con-
taining only 550 square feet of
space. The building is still on
its original stone footings that
have now broken down result-
ing in the building sagging and
twisting. Over the years the
building has taken on moisture
due to settling and as a result the
sills are rotting away in sections
and are in serious disrepair in
other sections. The shifting and
settling have caused significant
damage to the windows, and
doors and mold has begun set-
tling into the building.
As a result of this damage, the
Select Board was forced to close
the School House as the
Dorchester Historical Museum
until money can be raised to
complete the needed renova-
tions. Initial projections of
costs are between $17,000 and
$20,000. Toward this end, in
2012 the Dorchester Select
Board applied for a $10,000
Moose Plate grant to assist in
the REnewal (renovation with-
out addition of more space or
any modern conveniences) of
the School House on the
Dorchester Common. Though
rated quite high for funding,
Dorchester could only be grant-
ed $5,000 toward this project
and the Dorchester Historic
District and Heritage
Commission took up the chal-
lenge to raise additional monies
to assure this project is funded.
In October of 2012 the
Commission sent out letters to
all land owners and was grati-
fied by 22 responses raising
over $2,100.
Now the Commission is again
sending letters soliciting help
from those land owners and res-
idents who have not yet con-
tributed. Because of the obvi-
ous financial hardships being
encountered by Dorchester resi-
dents, many feel taxpayer
monies cannot be used for this
type of historic work as other
Towns have done. Dorchester is
a small town with a 350 census
in 2010. However, the work of
REnewal will cost money and
so the Commission is also seek-
ing local support from individu-
als and businesses interested in
preserving local history in NH.
In addition, the Commission is
seeking ideas on other avenues
that might be used to raise
money. The Commission needs
at least an additional $10,000 to
do the work required to save
Dorchesters Historic School
House and Museum.
If you can help, please send a
check to the Dorchester
Heritage Commission,
Dorchester Town Office, 1021
NH Route 118, Dorchester, NH
03266. If you have ideas to help
the Commission in its work
please contact Sandy Green at
DorchesterHDC@gmail.com.

A new White Mountains hiking
history written by longtime out-
doors columnist and guidebook
author Mike Dickerman of
Littleton, N.H., has just been
published by The History Press
of Charleston, South Carolina.
The book, Hiking History of the
White Mountains: Trailblazers
of the Granite State, debuted on
May 22 and features nearly a
dozen chapters chronicling the
early trails and trail-builders of
New Hampshires White
Mountains.
The 144-page softcover book
chronicles the development of
the White Mountain regions
extensive trail network which
today includes more than 500
footpaths covering some 1400
miles. Special emphasis in the
book is placed on the period
between 1819 and 1925, begin-
ning with the establishment of
the historic Crawford Path up
Mount Washington in 1819.
Several chapters also feature
profiles of early mountain
guides Allen Old Man
Thompson of Bethlehem and
Charles Lowe of Randolph,
while another chapter takes an
interesting look at the first and
last horseback ascent of Mount
Washington via the Crawford
Path, Americas oldest continu-
ously maintained hiking trail.
Accompanying the authors text
are more than 50 photographs,
including many historic, rarely
seen images from the collec-
tions of the Appalachian
Mountain Club, Randolph
Mountain Club, and Mount
Washington Observatory.
Contemporary trail images from
a number of area photographers,
such as Chris Whiton and John
Compton, both of Bethlehem,
are also featured in the book.
This is a project that has been
in the making for quite some
time as I have been researching
this topic for a decade or more,
said Dickerman, who has previ-
ously authored, co-authored or
edited more a dozen other titles
related to the White Mountains
Im pleased that History Press
decided to publish this particu-
lar book as they have a proven
track record and have produced
a number of great New
Hampshire-related books in
recent years.
Copies of White Mountains
Hiking History are now avail-
able in many New Hampshire
retail establishments and also
from the authors own business,
Bondcliff Books of Littleton,
New Hampshire (www.bond-
cliffbooks.com). For additional

The date April 14, 2014 is draw-
ing closer, you may ask what
that date has to do with any-
thing, well that date marks the
end of an era. That is the date
Microsoft Windows XP support
will come to an end.
Starting that date Microsoft will
no longer release updates for
Windows XP and software man-
ufactures will no longer write
software for the operating sys-
tem. How that will affect your
computer? Since Microsoft is
no longer making updates to
protect your computer from
hackers it will be more venera-
ble on the internet.
After April 14, 2014 we will
only have 3 flavors of Windows
we can update and will be sup-
ported by Microsoft, they are
Windows Vista, Windows 7 and
the new Windows 8 . Windows
8 is taking a totally new
approach to how we interact
with our computers. The com-
puter industry is trying to make
the way we interact with our
computers the same as how we
use our tablet or smart phones.
With
Windows 8 the interface is the
same as a Windows Smart
phone using the Metro Style
interface and live tiles, to some
it will be easier to use to others
it will be more challenging to
understand, welcome to the
future? Windows Vista and
Windows 7 will be supported
for some time however if you
should buy a new computer it
will have the new Windows 8
installed. Some questions I have
received lately from customers;
Q: I have a new computer and I
want to dispose of my old one,
how can I remove my data from
the old computer.
A: I recommend a program
called Killdisk you can get it at
http://www.killdisk.com/ it is
free it will over write any data
on your hard drive several times
so it cannot be recovered, it
works on all versions of win-
dows and will boot off a cd or
USB device.
Q: Will I get faster performance
from my computer if I defrag-
ment my hard drive?
A: That depends on the version
of windows you have. If your
computer has Windows XP and
you have never defragmented
the hard drive it will speed up
the computer when starting and
accessing files, to run Disk
Defragmenter on Windows XP,
click on Start/All
programs/Accessories/System
Tools/Disk Defragmenter. On
the latest operating systems
Windows Vista and Windows 7
the disk defragmenter work in
the back ground so you do not
have to run the program, and
about the programs that claim
they are better at defragmenting
your hard drive, there is no
proof, use the one built into
windows and save some money.
Q: I removed some spyware
from my computer how can I
check my windows system files
to make sure they were no cor-
rupted by the spyware.
A: I recommend you run System
File Checker it is built into
Windows, if your computer has
Windows XP you may need the
Windows install disk, here is
how to run the program. First
open your command prompt
windows and run it under
administrator by going to
Start/All Programs/Accessories/
(right click on) Command
Prompt (left click run as admin-
istrator) a DOS window will
appear type sfc /scannow the
program will check all your crit-
ical Windows system files to
insure they are intact and if they
are corrupt will replace them
with the original file.
Q: My computer has Windows
Vista, when I run Windows in
Safe Mode I have no access to
the Menu bar. How can I get
that back?
A: Press ALT on your keyboard
that will give you the classic
menu Bar.

Say, No thanks!
to Lyme Disease
Warm, sunny days are here
again, the wildflower parade has
started, and we humans have
switched to spring mode, glad to
leave heavy boots and jackets
behind as we make fresh starts
into the woods. Ticks are also
strutting their finest in this
parade and they need to bite
friendly hosts to survive.
Hopefully they will not bring us
a new round of Lyme Disease.
If you get a bite, heres an easy
way to remove ticks: apply a
glob of liquid soap to a cotton
ball. Cover the tick with the cot-
ton ball for 15-20 seconds and it
will fall off on its own and stick
to the cotton ball.
To know what were dealing
with and how to prevent bites, it
helps to understand the life
cycle of the Deer tick and what
it needs to survive. The tick gets
its name because the preferred
host is a deer. Adult ticks feed
on the deers blood, mate and,
once the female eggs are fertil-
ized, both the male and female
die and drop to the ground
where the eggs hatch to larva.
The larva seeks a new host, a
mouse or whoever is handy. The
larvae molt to nymphs and con-
tinue to feed on mouse blood
and other small mammals. Ticks
are usually found on grasses,
waiting for other victims, like us
and deer, to pass.
Currently, the Centers for
Disease Control recommends
DEET, Picaridin, and
Permethrin for insect repellants.
All are registered with the
Environmental Protection
Agency. In the past, readers
responded that DEET had not
served as a protection from tick
bites for them. Permethrin is the
insecticide that people are find-
ing effective against tick bites.
Pyrethrum is a natural insecti-
cide made from the flowers of a
species of the Chrysanthemum
plant. Permethrin is a synthetic
insecticide whose chemical
structure is based on natural
pyrethrum. As an insecticide, it
is currently sold as a 0.5%
Permethrin Pump Spray.
When used as directed,
Permethrin appears to have no
harmful effect on the environ-
ment.
It is NOT used on the skin. It is
sprayed on your clothes (shirt,
pants, socks, everything but
your underwear) and one treat-
ment will last up to six launder-
ings or six weeks before cloth-
ing has to be treated again. You
need to wash the sprayed
clothes between wearings or
check the product label for spe-
cific instructions.
Other readers have found
Permethrin Tick Tubes to be
effective, especially if you live
in a wooded/grassy area, have
pets, and need protection right
in your own yard. Tick Tubes
are designed for the little crit-
ters. The tubes are biodegrad-
able cardboard tubes filled with
permethrin-treated cotton balls.
Mice gather the cotton for their
nests. Deer ticks intending to
feed on the mice are then killed
when the mice return to their
nests.
However, the mice and other
mammals are not harmed. Put
these tubes around your yard
and the mice will love you for it.
Caution needs to be taken that
children do not take them apart
out of curiosity and handle the
cotton.
If you are interested in purchas-
ing either of these products,
check your local camping or
hunting supply store.
Otherwise, both products are
available on line.
IMPORTANT CAUTIONS:
DEET comes in varying
strengths and preparations, in
roll-ons, sprays and liquid. If
applied to the skin (which hikers
and gardeners often do,) it needs
to be thoroughly washed off
with soap and water when home
safely. DEET is potentially
toxic. Body checking, especial-
ly the head and hairline, remains
a must. Our heads have a rich
supply of blood just under the
surface. Check and re-check
each other after time spent in
tick-infested areas, especially if
near grasses; get out of your
clothes, do a complete body
check, and shower well. Wash
clothes to avoid spreading ticks
to your home. Check pets rou-
tinely. Walk on the center of
trails and save bushwhacking
for winter.
Permethrin is ONLY applied to
clothing, NEVER to the skin. It
is highly toxic to humans but
safe when applied to clothing
and not when clothing is being
worn. For safety, clothing is
sprayed according to specific
directions on the bottle and left
to dry for 2 hrs. before wearing.
One reader has a separate bag he
stores Pmethrin sprayed clothes
in between wearings.
A Deer Tick may only be the
size of a sesame seed but if it
has been sucking your blood, it
will swell up much larger. If you
are bitten and the tick has been
on you for more than 24 hrs, or
if you develop a fever, chills,
headache, muscle & joint pain,
fatigue, rash or any other symp-
tom that seems odd for you,
bring yourself and the tick to
your health provider.
Time to spread the word and
send in suggestions for what
works for you. Thanks!

Home and Away
Knowing Id be away from
home for a week, I embarked on
a self-imposed rush to get starts
transplanted and seeds planted
before my departure. My seed-
ing list was varied: Royal
Burgundy snap beans, King of
the Early dry beans, Tiger Eye
dry beans, more swiss chard,
sunflowers, plus a host of other
flower varieties, including more
cleome, zinnias, nasturtiums,
and calendula. Some were care-
fully planned and mapped
accordingly, while others were
scattered in corners and nooks
of our homestead with the hope
of our awakening to floral beau-
ty one unsuspecting day. To be
transplanted were more brassi-
cas (kale, broccoli, cabbage,
brussel sprouts), plus herbs such
as chamomile, oregano, and
lavender. While moving about
the garden, I harvested another
round of chives and mullein to
be dried, taking advantage of
the hot, dry conditions.
The forecast for my time away
looked to be fairly consistent:
rain, in various quantities,
accompanied by moderate tem-
peratures. The gardens have
certainly been suffering from a
precipitation deficit thus far
and the moderate temperatures
were easy to plan for. On the
morning of my travels I left the
cold frames open and window
boxes of lettuce outside.
This departure was, in many
ways, motivation to put every-
thing to right. With all tasks on
my garden list checked off, I
was ready to leave. For me, the
plant work is a large part of the
physical preparation for being
gone. That is not to minimize,
however, the cleaning up of
other odds and ends: raking
dead grass for mulch before the
new grass grows up, gathering
wood shavings for the privy (the
byproduct of chainsaw work),
moving brush piles that had
accumulated from winter
forestry, and gathering kindling.
Completing these tasks left me
ready to be briefly away.
However, another aspect of
being gone is mental perhaps
emotional is the better word as
I accustom myself to a different
rhythm. At our homestead,
Ryan and I are quite present as
one day unfolds into the next,
marking time with the growth of
the trees, and the weeds, the
unfurling of spring blossoms,
and the growth of plants around
us. Upon leaving, the intimacy
with the landscape with Home
is broken. The physical
details of place that comprise
our day-to-day must be cradled
in my mental memory for the
time apart.
In its absence, the importance of
landscape is reaffirmed. With
ourselves rooted in the dirt
alongside the vigorous weeds,
the tender plants, and the grand
trees whose crowns wave over-
head in the wind, we are at
home.
And even when away, we
belong somewhere: here.

ARIES (March 21 to April 19)
Cheer up, Lamb. Your emotion-
al impasse will lift once you
allow your highly tuned sense of
justice to guide you on what to
do about an associate's ques-
tionable behavior.
TAURUS (April 20 to May 20)
News about a project you hoped
to work on might need more
clarification. Take nothing just
on faith. Draw up a list of ques-
tions, and insist on each being
fully answered.
GEMINI (May 21 to June 20)
Giving your time to help others
is fine. But don't lose sight of
your own needs. Make plans for
an energy-restoring getaway
with that very special person in
your life.
CANCER (June 21 to July 22)
Congratulate yourself on getting
that difficult job done to every-
one's satisfaction. This could be
the first of many such chal-
lenges you might be offered
down the line.

whelmed by either side.
SCORPIO (October 23 to
November 21) Creative projects
might have to go on standby as
you tackle other matters making
demands on your time and ener-
gy. Things should ease by the
middle of next week.
SAGITTARIUS (November 22
to December 21) Your energies
are high, and so are your aspira-
tions. But be careful not to let
work dominate the week. It's
also important to spend time
with family and friends.
CAPRICORN (December 22
to January 19) It's a good time to
set aside your pride and stop
nursing those hurt feelings.
Instead, consider restoring rela-
tionships you want to have back
in your life.
AQUARIUS (January 20 to
February 18) You might be
miffed at not being shown more
appreciation for your hard work.
But don't brood over it.
Recognition comes in its own
time and in its own way.
PISCES (February 19 to March
20) With your inner creative
juices starting to boil and bub-
ble, this is a good time to launch
a new arts-related project, or go
back and restart the one you had
set aside.

Fountain Pens
Q: While cleaning out my dad's
desk, I found three older foun-
tain pens that I think might be of
interest of a collector. They are a
Montblanc No. 326, a Parker
Vacumatic Imperial Debutante
and a Chilton Wingflow. They
seem to be in excellent condi-
tion. -- Steve, Hammond, La.
A: Your Montblanc was made in
1936; the Parker, 1932; and the
rare Chilton, 1936. According to
several price guides I consulted,
they are each valued in the $500
to $600 range. Lisa Anderson is
president of the Pen Collectors
of American and might be able
to provide you with additional
information. Her contact
addresses are P.O. Box 992,
Appleton, WI 54912; lisa@pen-
collectorsofamerican.com; and

Q: We are clearing out my aunt's
estate and are down to the
kitchen and a pantry. She had
dozens of kitchen and cooking
gadgets. Is there a price guide
for kitchen items you can rec-
ommend? We need all the help
we can get? -- Beth, Cherry
Hills, Colo.
A: There are several I like,
including "Kitchen Collectibles
Price Guide" edited by Kyle
Husfloen, and "300 Years of
Kitchen Collectibles" by Linda
Campbell Franklin, both pub-
lished by Krause. These should
be helpful. I also would recom-
mend that you monitor the
action on eBay, since it reflects
current prices in real time.

Q: My mom was an Avon sales
representative during the 1950s.
Somehow, she saved three large
boxes of product, including
some bottles we think could be
collectible. Can you help us? --
Jack, Carlsbad, N.M.
A: Collecting Avon products
reached its peak about 40 years
ago. In recent years, although
there is still interest, it's not as
much as previously. With that
said, I suggest you contact the
National Association of Avon
Collectors, P.O. Box 7006,
Kansas City, MO 64113.

It was Israeli diplomat Abba
Eban who made the following
sage observation: "Men and
nations behave wisely once they
have exhausted all the other
alternatives."
John Tyler fathered 15 chil-
dren, more than any other U.S.
president in history. He also
holds the distinction of being
the oldest president with living
grandchildren. Tyler was born
in 1790, and his son Lyon
Gardiner Tyler was born in
1853. Lyon Gardiner, in turn,
had children at a rather
advanced age for fatherhood.
Lyon Gardiner Tyler Jr. was
born in 1924, when his father
was 71, and Harrison Ruffin
Tyler was born in 1928. Both
men were still living in 2012,
and the younger of the brothers
maintained the Tyler family his-
toric home, Sherwood Forest.
Those who study such things
say that the energy expended by
those chewing bubble gum
every day could power Los
Angeles for the same length of
time.
The shamrock is often associ-
ated with Ireland, so you might
be surprised to learn that it's not
the country's national symbol.
The official symbol is actually a
Celtic harp, which makes
Ireland the only country in the
world to have a musical instru-
ment for its national emblem.
It's been reported that
Napoleon Bonaparte was afraid
of cats.
According to a recent survey
of married people in the United
States, fully one-quarter of
respondents admitted to receiv-
ing a traffic ticket and hiding
from their spouse. Nearly that
many (24 percent) said they had
kept a car accident secret from
their husband or wife.
In an average year, there will
be about 700 tornadoes in the
United States.
