With the arrival of the spring and sum-mer months, many species of wildlife aregiving birth to their young. Findingyoung wildlife can be exciting, but inmost cases, even if it appears abandoned,its mother is not far off. If you encounteryoung wildlife – even young animals thatappear to need help – the kindest andsafest thing to do is to leave them aloneand let nature take its course.
Reports have already begun coming into Fish and Game and local wildlife rehabili-
tators from people who have picked up young animals, often mis-takenly thinking they are orphans. "Picking up fawns, baby rac-coons or young animals is an error in judgment," says N.H. Fishand Game Wildlife Programs Supervisor Kent Gustafson.
"People think they're doing a good deed, but they are often remov-ing the animal from the care of its parents and potentially exposingthemselves to the risk of disease. In particular, your actions mayresult in the animal having to be euthanized for rabies testing."
Young wild animals (including mammals, birds, reptiles andamphibians) typically have their best chance of surviving whenthey are in their own natural environment, says Gustafson. Whatshould you do if you find a young animal? "Give wildlife plentyof space and leave them alone and in the wild, where they belong,"he said. If in doubt, report the location of the animal to N.H. Fishand Game by emailing [email protected] or calling

Veterans and active members ofAmerica’s armed services travelgreat distances and make greatsacrifices to preserve and pro-tect our freedom and liberty.How far will you travel to honor
their contribution? TheAmerican Veteran’s TravelingTribute and Traveling Wall willvisit the North HaverhillFairgrounds, DartmouthCollege Highway (Route 10),North Haverhill, NH fromThursday, May 23 throughMonday, May 27. The missionof the project is to travel thenation to honor, respect, andremember men and women whoserved, and to pay specific trib-ute to those who gave all in thatservice. Since the tribute is
mobile it allows people to honorand respect veterans and activemilitary personnel without hav-ing to travel great distances todo so.
The AVTT presents The Cost ofFreedom Tribute and exhibitswith its centerpiece being theTraveling Wall, an 80% scaleversion of the Viet NamMemorial Wall in Washington,D.C. Across its 370-foot lengththe wall contains every singlename etched on the original. At
its apex the memorial is animpressive 8 feet tall. It wascompleted in 1998 and begantraveling that year. It is thelargest Wall replica traveling theUSA and is not to be confusedwith several other replica Walls(The Moving Wall, The DignityWall, the Wall That Heals)which all do a fine job; we areall on a mutual mission.

Gustafson explains that seeing adeer fawn alone, for example,does NOT mean that it isorphaned or that it needs yourhelp; it is normal for a doe toleave her fawn alone while shegoes off to feed , and in manycases, the doe will not returnuntil nightfall. Leaving the fawnundisturbed, and where it is,gives it the best chance of beingreunited with its mother.
"Fawns are not defenselesscreatures. Their cryptic col-oration, tendency to stay per-fectly still and lack of scent areall adaptations that help themsurvive," Gustafson said. Doesare easy for predators to detectbecause of their size and scent,so they keep a distance fromtheir fawns, except during briefnursing sessions, so that preda-tors don't key in on them. Ifsympathetic people handle or
Leave Young Animals Alone - Help Keep Our Wildlife Wild___repeatedly visit a fawn, it onlyserves to draw the attention ofpredators and discourage itsmother from returning.
"This hands-off and keep-your-distance policy also applies tobear cubs and moose calves,"Gustafson continued. "It’s alsoworth noting that sows andcows can and do actively protecttheir young. In any case, ifyou're lucky enough to see adeer fawn, bear cub, moose calfor other wild animal, count yourblessings and leave the area."
Only qualified people with spe-cial rehabilitator permits, issuedthrough N.H. Fish and Game,may take in and care for injuredor orphaned wildlife. Impropercare of injured or orphanedwildlife often leads to their sick-ness or death. For example,under NO circumstances shouldanyone feed a fawn. Improperfoods such as cow's milk invari-ably lead to severe diarrhea(scours), which is usually fatal.
Unless you have rehabilitatorcredentials, it is illegal to havein your possession or take NewHampshire wildlife from thewild and keep it in captivity.

Adventure to Fitness announcedMs. Danielle Sampson, ofCanaan Elementary School isrecognized as a NationalChampion of Education andFitness for the 2012-2013 aca-demic year.
Ms. Danielle Sampson has beena leading physical educationproponent in the state of NewHampshire, challenging chil-dren to learn while exercisingtheir minds and bodies withinnovative classroom tech-niques.
As childhood obesity rates con-tinue to rise she has been inte-grating fitness into her lessonplans, responding to the now-common nationwide calls forincreased physical activity andpersonal health awarenessamong kids. Ms. DanielleSampson is one in a growingtrend of teachers that have har-
nessed the power of technologyand thematic learning to active-ly engage and motivate kids intheir own health education. Inthe classroom, her students par-ticipate in a program that com-bines academics with physicalactivity, while also cultivatingthe physical and mental skillsthey will need to maintain theirwell-being into adulthood.Leading educators have foundthat employing these integratedteaching methods help childrenmake connections, solidifyinghealthier choices outside ofschool that reduce the occur-rence of diabetes, heart disease,and other lifestyle-related ail-ments.
"Ms. Danielle Sampson andCanaan Elementary School areamong the pioneering educatorsfocusing on ways to integratechildren's academic learning,health, and well-being. We com-mend their efforts and encour-age other teachers and schoolsacross the nation to follow theirlead" stated Colleen Henckels,Vice President of Marketing,Adventure to Fitness.

“Incessantly scouring the uni-verse for the weird, the wacky,and the stupid so you don’thave to.”
Greetings, and thanks for join-ing me for another week. First,it took him four years, butPhillip Patterson now has seri-ous cause to shout out a coupleof hallelujahs (and a srious caseof writer’s cramp): The upstateNew York man recently finishedwriting out the entire Bible byhand, reports the AP. “Everysingle curly-q, every singleloop, it was all worth it,” saysthe 63-year-old, who took onthe project as a means of learn-ing about the Bible (couldn’t hehave just read it?). He plans tospend another year on the bind-ing and cover before donatingthe entire 2,400-page opus to St.Peter’s.
Next, someone deserves a bighand.... a man who had thestrength and perseverance topull his own severed arm frommachinery and drive more thannine miles to a hospital all thewhile hanging onto the limb.The 37-year-old was then flownto another facility in Vienna,where surgeons are trying toreattach the limb, which
Australia’s ABC News reportswas severed below the elbow.He managed not to bleed todeath because he was in shock,police say.
Finally, here’s an abductiontwist: a Virginia couple saidthey are seeking the return oftwo alien statues abducted fromtheir front yard. The Bollingssaid the 3-foot-tall green alienyard decorations were takenfrom their yard The RoanokeTimes reported. Police areinvestigating.
Good thing I’m not like that(my Subway is often out of keyingredients)! A Massachusettswoman who ordered a steak-and-cheese sub at a subway sta-tion was so angry about “toomany pickles” on her sandwichthat she punched an employeeand shoved two jars of pickles ather. The jars shattered and thecustomer fled — without thesandwich — but the brine-cov-ered employee managed tocatch up with her and hold heruntil transit and local policearrived. After Tina Drouin, 49,ordered the sub, she immediate-ly complained the employeewas “putting too much sh*t” on
the sandwich and shouted“other derogatory commentsregarding the preparation,”police said. “It appeared theemployee could simply notplease Drouin,” they said.Drouin demanded a refund, andwhen the employee told her shecouldn’t get one, Drouinpunched the woman in the faceand then pushed large jars ofpickles on her. [CNN] Me? I letcorporate know.
I’m not lion here.... A Mexicanrestaurant in Florida has pulledlion meat tacos off the menuafter it caused an uproar amongcustomers. Taco Fusion inTampa is known for servingexotic game like shark, gazelle,ostrich, beaver and even camelin its tacos, TV station WFTSreported. But it was lion meatthat apparently crossed the line.A wildlife group and severalcustomers were outraged by thedecision, saying an animal indanger of extinction doesn’tbelong on a menu. “There isobviously an animal welfareconcern and there is a biggerpicture,” Jeff Kremer with BigCat Rescue told WFTS. “Thebigger concern is where do we,as a society, draw the line forwhat is acceptable for moral andethical behavior.” Initially, TacoFusion’s owners said if youdon’t like it, don’t eat it. Butthey have since decided to stopselling the $35 tacos.
Politics as usual? A US town hasselected a four-year-old boycalled Bobbie as its new mayor.Every year, Dorset, Minnesota,picks a name out of a hat, andthat person becomes the mayorfor a year. And this year it wasfour-year-old Bobbie Tufts whowill now be calling the shots inthe town for the next 12 months.Mayor Tufts apparently likes toplay, dance, sing, and talk to histownspeople, but he also likes tosneak off to the lake with hisparents in his downtime andfish. He likes to catch plenty ofcrappie, muskies, and bass. Hesays the best bait to use is leech-es and worms. Mayor Tufts toldreporters he also has a girlfriendnamed Sophia.[web.orange.co.uk]
In what could be a major allego-ry for today, archeologists werehorrified to discover that one ofthe largest Mayan pyramids in
Belize has been almost com-pletely annihilated by roadcrews looking for an easysource of gravel. The 2,300-year-old temple was rippeddown with bulldozers and back-hoes by a crew that threatenedreporters with machetes, USAToday reports. “We can’t sal-vage what has happened outhere—it’s an incredible displayof ignorance,” a governmentarcheologist said (Shades of TheMartian Chronicles). Using theancient structure as road fill rep-resents an “incredible inversionof value, that what the Mayabuilt with stone tools and manu-al labor ages ago is beingdemolished with heavy equip-ment because these contractorsare too lazy to find a properquarry,” another archeologistsays. The complex sits on pri-vate land, but Belizean law pro-tects all pre-Hispanic ruins andcriminal charges may be filed.
Finally, just for a treat:http://www.flixxy.com/rita-hay-w o r t h - d a n c i n g - t o - s t a y i n -alive.htm#.UZGTd8pK3-I

The Presidential Range as seen over Cherry Pond.
I, like every other hiker, has myfavorite hikes places I return to.Some are hard, others easier.When life comes at me fast andfurious, as we all know it can, Itake a break and let my thoughtsdrift to wherever they want togo and invariably they return tothe same places time and again.The summit of Garfield with itsamphitheater view. The flatrock with room enough for twoon top of West Bond. The threehundred and sixty degree viewson South, Middle and NorthMoat. The stone couch onHedgehog. The ledges on SouthDoublehead. The dramatic edgewalk along the Webster CliffTrail. The wondrous summitsthat come wrapped in privacyon almost any peak in EvansNotch.
And not all of the hikes I returnto in person or in my imagina-tion are difficult. Two come tomind: Pine Mountain, with itssweeping view south toPinkham Notch; and Black Cap,the best bang for the buck hikein the White Mountains.
Recently, we’ve been fortunateenough to have some of the besthiking weather we’ve everexperienced. Unfortunately,I’ve been sidelined by a brokentoe sustained when I tripped car-rying Will outside and fell downnine steps. I made certain to
protect Will throughout the tum-ble and he was fine. But theprice was a broken left pinkiefinger, big toe, and damagedribs. My right side was alsobanged up, but fortunately noth-ing was broken. The assortedbangs and bruises are nothingbut give a hiker a broken big toeand it’s equivalent to a prisonterm – especially during a twoweek run of bluebird weather.
Two weeks after the fall the toeis feeling slightly better but Istill cannot get my hiking shoeson. The only thing that feelshalfway right are Keens.Regrettably, Keens are the bestshoe of choice for most of thetrails up here. Thankfully theywork just fine on a trip up BlackCap with its mostly well-gradedpath. So over the past weekAtticus and I have visited the2,369 foot summit with an occa-sional side trip over to the sum-mit of Cranmer added in.
I try to keep things in perspec-tive and realize the fall couldhave been much more damagingand I count my blessings thatBlack Cap is something we cando with its incredible view-points and hideaway ledgesmade perfect for napping orreading or just whiling away anhour or two – something writersare known to do quite often.
Black Cap is a fine peak nestledhigh above the rest of the rest ofthe Green Hill Preserve and it’sview is so special that it is thefirst peak I send non-hikers to sothey’ll have an appreciation ofwhat it’s like to be on a moun-taintop. More often than nottheir first trip is enough to makethem want to try a second tripelsewhere in the Whites. Andany peak that can do that is aworthwhile peak.
Until these past few weeks weused to take it for granted and Ilooked at it little more than amorning or afternoon walk with
Atticus fine for exercise and aquick fix of mountain air. Butsince it is my only alternativeright now, I find that I appreci-ate it all the more. The openledges, the expansive views, thelesser-used trail that loops to thewestern side of the mountainbefore joining the main trail uphigh which features its own setof views and a wonderful corri-dor of spring green trees so fullof life they look Photoshopped.
And not only has Black Capbecome our main destination oflate, it’s also a fine jumping offspot to plan and daydream aboutother places we’ll go to inanother two or three weeks.When I lived back inNewburyport Atticus and Iwould take refuge away fromthe red brick downtown with itsboutiques by hiding out in asecret glen in Moseley Pines, asmall but magical little parkwith great views of theMerrimack River. We’d sitthere around this time of year,feel the warmth of springspreading out around us, feel thetingling breezes, and inhale thescent of pine needles and freshair while being sung to by anorchestra of birds. I knew back
then that it was a special place –just not as special as where wewere headed each weekend wecame up to hike. Now I say thesame thing about Black Cap. Itis a special place, meant to nur-ture dreams of even more spe-cial places once my toe is healedand I can walk without a limp.Then we’ll seek out the wildplaces that tame me and setAtticus free. For now it will doand hopefully in two weeksyou’ll be hearing about a jour-ney to some tucked away sum-mit in Evans Notch.

Letter To The Editor___________________Having attended the Warrentown hall meeting that SenatorKelly Ayotte held, April 30,2013 where she produced num-bers regarding the lack of effi-cacy of existing gun laws I amdeeply saddened to see the rant,rave and emotional over reac-tion of some people. The billthat Sen. Ayotte voted againstwas no better than the currentlaw. Totally missing the targetare the ranters. Over the lastfew years most of the shoot-outshave been done with legal gunsand mentally ill people havingpsychotic episodes. Tell mewhere in this country is there asafe place for people havingpsychotic meltdowns? A tenday intake process to holdsomeone in hospital custody isinadequate. Where is the men-tal health community ? Is therenot a need for accountability onthe part of mental healthproviders to take action to pre-vent the psychotic from beingloose on the street to harmthemselves or others becausetheir cognitive capacity is tem-porarily gone? The movieshooter knew his thinking wasgetting out of hand, and theminute he was no longer a stu-dent his college paid psycholo-gist/psychiatrist did not see fitto take any action? He wasspoon feeding her his distress!Those people are licensed by thestate, not the college.
The care of the mentally ill sitsat the bottom of a huge pendu-lum. The Salem witches, theinsane asylums, putting anyonewith 'disabilities' in mentalinstitutions, then the other wayto closing all hospitals and say-ing community mental healthcenters could care for all inneed, and discharging the hos-pitalized in 10 days with thecourt making the decision forrelease. How many peoplesleep in doorways in Concord?There is a big hole in the currentsystem. How to get them intocare and confinement beforethey lose it and act out.Families suffer terrible stresswhen trying to live with thosewho are sliding into psychosis.
Kelly Ayotte did the right thing,voting against a poor bill.Those who want to DO some-thing about the tragedy of SandyHook should start a review ofmental health laws, andaccountability of mental healthcare providers for beginners.
And frankly, however wellintended, I think a special placein hell is reserved for those whowould add to the distress of thenewly bereaved. The princi-pal's daughter is being playedlike a fiddle. Shame on youranters.
Sincerely,Sandra W. Hair
“Useful Idiots”
“Useful Idiots” is a term used todescribe people who are per-ceived as propagandists for acause whose goals they do notunderstand, and who are usedcynically by the leaders of thatcause.
I can only assume that severalrecent letters to the editor criti-cizing Senator Kelly Ayotte inregard to her votes on gun con-trol legislation were written bysuch people. They either don’t
know or have chosen to ignorethe fact that the Senator has dis-played great courage andintegrity in refusing to be bul-lied into voting for legislationthat has virtually no chance ofachieving its stated intent.Instead, she has proposedand/or supported legislationthat actually could have a sig-nificant impact on reducing gunviolence.
Senator Ayotte has been target-ed by the civilian disarmamentcrowd, which includes: the one-
world, billionaire Socialist,George Soros, Move-On.organd the “useful idiots” whoserve these people, because theythink that they sense an oppor-tunity to discredit her.
I believe that if people take thetime to become informed inregard to Senator Ayotte’s posi-tions concerning gun controllegislation, most will find themto be quite reasonable.
Russell T. CumbeeFranconia, NH
The Town Hall with SenatorAyotte was well attended byboth sides. The issue drawingmost attention was the USSenate vote against new legisla-tion that would further restrict2nd Amendment rights for law-abiding citizens, while doingnothing to control violence inour Country.
The Senator made it quite clearthat the problem lies not withmore gun laws, but by enforcingthe laws we already have. Ofthe 80,000 people denied a gunpurchase through N.I.C.S.(National Instant Background
Check System), only 44 wereprosecuted!
Despite the fact that the elitistmedia tried its best to link thesemurders with the Tea Party, itwas soon clear that the oppositewas true and all are mentally ill,with the exception of Ft. Hood--he was a Muslim terrorist.
Something not mentioned at theWarren Town Meeting was thatthere are already about 22,000gun laws in the US. A few moremay make someone feel good,but it will do nothing to stop theviolence.
Our families and society is ill,as evidenced by the violent andoutrageous video games andmovies that are young peopleare constantly feeding on, lead-ing to their desensitization fromreal life. Let’s focus on healingour society from within andleave law-abiding gun ownersalone.
Thank you, Senator Ayotte, forfocusing on real solutions to theproblem.

Wentworth Elementary Schoolrecently ordered me out ofschool after deeming my shirtfor breast cancer awarenessunacceptable.
I have gone to the school from1st grade up until now, a current8th grader; there have beenthings that I did not necessarilyagree with that the administra-tion has done, but this blew mymind.
It is my CONSTITUTIONALright to express myself freely.They are infringing myConstitutional right to do so bydisabling me from supportingbreast cancer and my grand-mother who currently fights thedisease.
The shirt clearly says,"Awareness for breast cancer."
The Wentworth Elementary
School does not approve thesupporting of breast cancer, thatis socially disturbing.
Collin GoodaleWentworth, NH Letter To The Editor___________________
In Support of Kelly Ayotte
I have read numerous negativeattacks on Kelly recently. I findit despicable that some people,including some relatives of theSandy Hook massacre victims,would lie, distort and misleadthe public about her vote ongun legislation to further apolitical agenda. She is a moth-er, an ex-Attorney General, anda very responsive common sensepublic servant. She condemnsthe murder of innocent peopleas much as anyone. Her recentvote on background checksstems from a correct belief thatthe proposed law would donothing to prevent future attacksor those that have occurredover the last several years, hadit been on the books.
It is already illegal for a felon,or a mentally deficient person to
buy a gun, or to execute a strawman purchase. She correctlystated that the problem is a lackof enforcement of our currentlaws and a failure to address themental health issue.
It is abhorrent that some peoplecare more about attacking Kellyand trying to make political hay,than coming up with effectiveideas that would be more thanlook good, feel good laws. Themedia, unfortunately, tries toMAKE the news, rather thanreporting it, and sensationalizeseverything for weeks or monthson end. It is no wonder thatother misfits try to emulate theprevious crimes to get their fiveminutes of infamy.
As for Kelly, she not only hasmy full support, but I wish thatthere were 99 more just like herin the Senate!

Yes, another two weeks havegone by already! You don't real-ly notice how quickly time goesby, until you have deadlinesevery couple of weeks, whichactually seem to come evenquicker than that!
As you know, this column ispretty much dedicated to thosethings that either need kudos, ormore often than not, irritate, orupset people, usually by thosewho, as my mother, rest hersoul, would say, have nothingbetween the ears!
This week, a couple of things!Even though the black flies irri-tate me, I won't write aboutthem. But yes, they are out andin full force. I also won't writeabout the ticks, another irritat-ing little creature with noapparent purpose on the earth!
This week, it's about the trash!Yes, garbage, bottles, diapers,cans, toilet seats, cigarettepackages, tires, washers, dryersand anything else litterbugsseemingly like to throw besidethe roads and everywhere else.
The old saying goes, "one man'strash is another man’s treas-ure," however I beg to differ.Why is it that people feel a needto throw *#**!, excuse me, junk,out their windows on the road-ways or even on hiking trailsand everywhere in between.
I am not afraid to say, that somepeople are just lazy, sloppy, lit-terbugs! Period!
Let's see - how about we buysome beer at the store, drink iton the way home and throw itout the window of the vehiclebefore we get home. Seems
that's what quite a number ofpeople like to do. You canalmost time it from any of thelocal stores. For example - let'sget our beer at the store inWarren. Then we travel eitherup route 25 or route 25-C. Thenlets figure it takes so many milesto finish off a good old 12 ouncebeer. Stop your car, look on theside of the road, and guaran-teed, there will be a pile of cans,bottles, etc.... right there inabout the same spot every time,most likely from the same peo-ple!
I know you don't want to getcaught drinking and driving, butat least you could just put themin one big pile. Makes it easierfor the state crew to pick up!Sarcasm? yes!
Of course, it's not just beer cansor bottles, but most anythingcan be found if you look hardenough! I have seen everythingfrom cans and bottles to wash-ers and dryers, from cigarettepacks to dirty old diapers.
Come on people, just throw it inthe trash when you get home!Those fast food bags, french fryboxes and cigarette packs cantruly be put in your trash athome. Unless of course you arehiding the fact that you are eat-ing fast food or smoking fromyour spouse!
We also took a walk around thebackside of Lake Tarleton theother day. I am not putting downpeople who drink certainbrands of beer, but come on, atleast take out your cans or leavethem in one pile. We almostfilled a trash bag by simplywalking in about 3/4 of a mileand back. There's just no need
of it. If you can carry it in full,you can certainly carry it outempty. After all, it’s lighter!
Okay, enough about littering onour scenic roads and trails.There will always be those wholitter, and there will always bethose who clean it up.Unfortunately, that cycle willnever end.
I would also just like to say thisweek, thanks for reading thecolumn. It's because of thosewho continually read it, that Ican keep on moaning andgroaning within it! By the way,if anyone has any ideas, ormoans and groans they'd like toshare, just let me know and wemight just write about it!!! Youjust never know what the nextgripe might be about!
Don’t get me wrong, I am con-stantly thinking positive, butunfortunately, there will alwaysbe those who deem it necessaryto do negative things! So hey,we’ll just write about them!

Kelly Ayotte is a huge disap-pointment to me and a greatnumber of other NewHampshire citizens. Her will-ingness to overlook the wishesof her constituents in order toingratiate herself with the NRAis shameful.
The right wing of theRepublican Party appears to begrooming Kelly to replaceSarah Palin on the dais next toJohn McCain.
In payment for that honor Kellyis willing to forego the needs ofthose who put her in office andto toe the party line. Much ofthe party line is to prevent anyvaluable legislation from adop-tion, since it is more important
to stop President Obama fromaccomplishing worthwhilegoals than it is to actuallyaccomplish anything.
Moderate, intelligent andthoughtful Republicans abhorthis policy as much as theDemocrats.
When she voted against com-mon sense background checksfor gun purchases Kelly Ayotteunderestimated the passion NewHampshire has for what is right.She hopes we will forget hertreachery before the next elec-tion We won’t.
Joyce TompkinsPiermont, NH
I support Senator Kelly Ayotte
On April 30th. I attendedSenator Ayotte’s town hall meet-ing in Warren and would like topoint out a few facts that wereleft out by the media's coverageof that meeting. To begin with,Senator Ayotte’s supporters faroutnumbered the amount of outof state, paid protester's thatshowed up by a 5-1 margin.Secondly, the Senator has beendoing these town halls since shetook office and this was her 21sttown hall meeting and 3rd onethat she has held in GraftonCounty alone. I have been tothose meetings and the formatfor Warren’s town hall was thesame as the previous meetings.No screening of questions, noplanted questions, and in factthe person was not even askedto write down their question,just check what topic they want-ed to discuss and sign theirname; everyone had the sameopportunity to do so.
Next I would like to dispel theridiculously inaccurate state-ment, being thrown out there bythe anti-second amendmentfolks, that the Senator does notsupport background checks.
This is absolutely false, in factthe Senator supported theGrassley amendment whichwould have improved the exist-ing background check system,criminalized gun trafficking andstraw purchasing, boostedresources to improve schoolsafety and addressed the mentalhealth gaps in the criminal jus-tice system. Lastly, this billwould have increased theresources for those who attemptto buy guns illegally. If we can’tenforce our current laws, how iscreating more onerous lawsgoing to matter.
In closing, as tragic as theshooting in Newtown was, andbelieve me having grandchil-dren myself I was outraged bythis vicious attack on the mostinnocent of our citizenry, thelaw that President Obama andthe left is pushing would nothave prevented this horribleevent from occurring. As usualSenator Ayotte used her com-mon sense combined with herstrong background in lawenforcement (former NHAttorney General) to supportthe right amendment. I onlywish my other Senator wouldhave had the courage to breakwith her party and support thecommon sense Grassley amend-ment. At least then we couldhave started down the path to amore common sense gun controlsolution.
Tom ThomsonOrford, NH
I would like to sincerely thankU.S. Senator Kelly Ayotte forholding two town halls onTuesday, April 30th in the townsof Warren and Tilton. The timeshe took to explain the situationin Washington and answer themany questions from the audi-ence truly showed her commit-ment to serving our state. Ihope she knows how much thatservice means to NH voters.
The most controversial issue inquestion during both town hallmeetings was Senator Ayotte’s“nay” vote on the “Manchin-Toomey” amendment; a piece oflegislation that ultimatelyexpands the current, unen-forced, background check sys-tem. How is it unenforced?Well, mental health verdictswhere an individual is found tobe a danger to themselves orothers is not entered into thesystem, despite the fact that thelarge majority of recent massmurders have been committedby those who are mentallyunstable.
Additionally, according to testi-mony before the SenateJudiciary Committee in 2010,80,000 people were deniedthrough firearms backgroundchecks and only 44 of them wereprosecuted by the DOJ. Howcan we expect to keep guns frombeing obtained illegally if thereare no penalties or follow up onexisting laws?
Instead of sticking a band-aidon a leaky boat, Senator Ayottebacks real solutions such asaddressing mental health gapsin the criminal justice systemand making sure that illegallyobtaining a gun has consistentconsequences.
Thank you,Adeline JohnsonCampton, NH

Inspiring Words for You!Dear Friends, Quiet time and fellowship
with God, the most important part ofeach day. Do you spend quality time with theLord of the universe? Or do you go about yourday as if you've got it all under control, or atleast until something falls apart?! God tells usto spend quality time with Him. Not necessarilyquantity, but quality time. Spending qualitytime with God is extremely important in build-ing our relationship with Him. In the Bible thepeople that loved and revered God; from theO.T. through to the last book in the N.T.; prayedto God all the time. But Jesus is by far the great-est example of someone who created the timeand space to spend that quality time with God.Luke 6:12;22:41,44 are some verses. SeeingJesus do this all the time eventually inspiredone of His disciples asking them to teach themhow to pray. Luke 11:1-4. We usually want tospend time with those we love, letting themknow they are important to us, over the rest oflife. God yearns for that same time with you.Take a few minutes of your day, and let Himknow how much you love him. God bless youall. ~Submitted by Jeannine Bartlett

Dear EarthTalk: I heard that anumber of beer brewing compa-nies have banded together tosupport the Clean Water Act.Can you enlighten?
-- Mitch Jenkins, Cincinnati, OH
In April 2013 the non-profitNatural Resources DefenseCouncil (NRDC) broughttogether two dozen nationallyrespected craft beer brewers tolaunch the Brewers for CleanWater Campaign, which aims toleverage the economic growthof the craft brewing sector into apowerful voice for bolsteringclean water protection in theUnited States.
“Whether brewers are creatingales, pilsners, porters, wits orstouts, one ingredient must gointo every batch: clean water,”says Karen Hobbs, a senior pol-icy analyst at NRDC. “Craftbrewers need clean water tomake great beer.”
While hops, malt and the brew-ing process itself are also clearlyimportant, water just may be thesecret ingredient that gives aspecific beer its distinctive fla-vor. “Beer is about 90 percentwater, making local water sup-ply quality and its characteris-tics, such as pH and mineralcontent, critical to beer brewingand the flavor of many classicbrews,” reports NRDC. “For
example, the unusually softwater of Pilsen, from the CzechRepublic, helped create what isconsidered the original goldstandard of pilsner beers. Theclarity and hoppiness ofEngland’s finest India Pale Ales,brewed since the 1700s inBurton-on-Trent, result fromrelatively high levels of calciumin local water.” Brewers canreplicate the flavors of beerslike these and others by sourc-ing freshwater with similar fea-tures or by starting with neutralwater and adding minerals andsalts accordingly to bring outcertain desired characteristics.
Of course, clean water is essen-tial to more than great-tastingbeer. “It’s critical for publichealth and the health of a widerange of industries,” addsNRDC. “Now our streams, wet-lands and water supply need ourhelp. Without strong legal pro-tections, they are under threatfrom pollution like sewage,agricultural waste, and oilspills.”
The popularity of craft brewers’“microbrews” in recent years isanother reason why NRDC hashitched its clean water wagon tothe industry. “Craft brewers areclosely tied to their communi-ties with a very real understand-ing of the impacts bad policycan have on regional watersources,” reports the group.“While the participants in thecampaign include brewing oper-ations large and small, all havedemonstrated a commitment tosustainability in their operationsand beer development.”
By taking part in the campaign,New Belgium, Sierra Nevada,Allagash, Short's, Temperance,Arbor, DryHop, Finch's,Revolution, Flossmoor,Cranker’s, Wild Onion, RightBrain, Half Acre, Goose Islandand other craft brewers are help-ing spread the word in a waythat hits home with consumers.For its part, NRDC is urgingbeer lovers (and other con-cerned environmentalists) to usethe form on its website to e-mailthe White House encouragingPresident Obama to finalizeguidelines recently created bythe Army Corps of Engineersand the U.S. EnvironmentalProtection Agency that call forgreater protections for streamsand wetlands in important head-waters regions from coast tocoast. And consumers should beglad to know that for oncedrinking beer can actually begood for the environment. Sobottoms up!

PVSART volunteers are oftenrequired to carry injured hikersdown trail on a litter. Groups ofsix volunteers change out fromthe carrying rotation aboutevery five minutes, dependingon the difficulty of the terrainand the size of the person beingcarried. Rescuers may be in the
wilderness for several hours,and more volunteers allow thesearch and rescue team to safelyand successfully complete oper-ations.
This program is free and open toall who would like to learn moreabout this courageous group ofpeople.

The Wellington State Park boataccess facility on NewfoundLake in Bristol, N.H., will beclosed for repairs from Tuesday,May 28, through Friday, May31. During this time, ProckMarine will install a missing pil-ing and reset existing piles intobedrock so that an accessiblefloating dock can be installed.
The contractor will mobilizeequipment during the week ofMay 20, so a portion of theparking lot will be closed duringthat week. The facility will beopen for use during theMemorial Day Weekend. OnTuesday, May 28, the site willclose and the contractor willbuild a temporary structure thatwill allow them to reach out tothe location of the missing pile.
The piles will then be set andthe dock installed.
The New Hampshire Fish andGame Department replaced theold concrete boat launch rampswith ramps of a newer, moreinnovative design lastSeptember. During the winter,one of the new piles was dis-placed by ice movement.

New Properties Added To NH StateRegister Of Historic Places_____________The New Hampshire Divisionof Historical Resources ispleased to announce that theState Historical ResourcesCouncil has added five proper-ties to the New Hampshire StateRegister of Historic Places.
The State Register has helped topromote the significance ofmany historic properties acrossNew Hampshire. Benefits ofbeing listed on the StateRegister include: Special con-sideration and relief from somebuilding codes and regulations;Designation of a property as his-torical, which is a pre-qualifica-tion for many grant programs,including Conservation LicensePlate grants and NewHampshire Land andCommunity HeritageInvestment Program (LCHIP)grants; and Acknowledgment ofa property’s historical signifi-cance in the community.
The most recent additions to theNew Hampshire State Registerof Historic Places are:
Durham’s Smith Chapel wasbuilt in 1900 as a tribute to phi-lanthropist Hamilton Smith.Modeled after the chapel inEngland where poet Alfred LordTennyson’s father was rector.
Constructed circa 1823,Hinkson’s Carding Mill playedan important part in Grafton’seconomy, transforming wool –and possibly flax – into usablefiber for knitting, spinning andweaving.
North Hampton’s Town Librarywas built in 1907 to house col-lections for the library, whichhad been established in 1892.Designed by James LawrenceBerry in the Tudor Revival
style, the building was convert-ed to town offices in 1973 andstill serves the town in thatcapacity.
After much discussion aboutwhere it should be located,Orford Town Hall was built in1859. The Greek Revival-stylebuilding, with its large hall, bal-cony and kitchen space, servedas the central town building andsocial space until 1988.
Rye Town Hall was constructedin 1839 as a Methodist churchand converted to town hall usein 1874.
Anyone wishing to nominate aproperty to the New HampshireState Register of Historic Placesmust research the history of thenominated property and docu-ment it fully on an inventoryform from the New HampshireDivision of HistoricalResources. Having a propertylisted in the Register does notimpose restrictions on privateproperty owners. For moreinformation, visitwww.nh.gov/nhdhr.
New Hampshire's Division ofHistorical Resources, the StateHistoric Preservation Office,was established in 1974. Thehistorical, archaeological, archi-tectural, engineering and cultur-al resources of New Hampshireare among the most importantenvironmental assets of thestate. Historic preservation pro-motes the use, understandingand conservation of suchresources for the education,inspiration, pleasure and enrich-ment of New Hampshire’s citi-zens.

Warren • Wentworth Food Pantry News
I have had customers say theyhave received calls fromMicrosoft that their computerwas infected by a virus. Here isnarrative from Scott Brande ofWindows Secrets of what hap-pened to him when he got one ofthose calls;
Scott's description of how thescam played out:
"This morning I received a tele-phone call (the second such callin two weeks) about infectedfiles on my computer; the callerthen offered to fix the problem.Suspecting a scam, I decided toplay along.
"I think it was the same callerboth times. He had a strongaccent, the kind I'm used tohearing on outsourced helplines. I asked the caller's nameboth times; the first time hereplied, 'Mike Tyler,' and thesecond time he was 'Andrew.'He began the call by saying thathe's with Microtek, an author-ized supporter for Windowsoperating systems. (My spellingof the company's name was aguess; the caller never spelled itout.)
"I asked immediately whetherthis was a sales call. Withoutdirectly answering my question,he launched into what soundedlike a script. He stated: 'Ourservers have received informa-tion from your computer thatindicates it is infected.'
"When I questioned him abouthis company, he told me I'd find
'Microtek' listed on [an onlinebusiness directory] — as if alisting in the directory wereproof his call was legitimate!When asked where the companywas located, he replied,'Houston, Texas.' I then askedfor his employee ID; he gave me'MSCE079502.'
"(After the call, I ran an onlinesearch and came up with aMicrotek in Houston; it's atraining facility for businesscomputer users — not a techni-cal-support center. I assume thecaller just picked Microtek'sname off the Web. I don'tbelieve the real Microtek hadanything to do with the bogustech-support call.)
"Changing topics, I asked howhe knew my computer wasinfected. He replied that hiscompany is an authorizedMicrosoft Partner and, because Iuse Microsoft Windows, mycomputer sends notifications toMicrotek servers.
"I then asked how he knewabout my specific computer; hestated that his server getsupdates from my PC. He thenasked whether I ran WindowsUpdate. When I said yes, hewent on to say that Microtekservers got the informationabout infected files in my sys-tem via Windows Update.
"I countered, stating thatWindows Update goes only toMicrosoft servers — notMicrotek servers. But he simplyrepeated that Microtek is anauthorized Microsoft Partner.
"Next, I asked him which one ofmy computers was infected (Ihave several at home), to which
he said something vague about aMAC address. When askedwhich MAC address he had formy machine, he would stateonly that, for 'security reasons,'he couldn't tell me the MACaddress (even though it was myown PC).
"At this point, I expressed mydoubts about all this informa-tion. But he was quite persist-ent; he stated that 'some of ourclients in your area have beenaffected by the infected files onyour machine.' He then claimedI had upward of '1,000 infectedfiles.' When asked who theselocal clients were, he said hecouldn't tell me that (of course).
"I asked how his clients'machines could possibly beaffected by my home computer.He didn't answer this but wentdirectly to the following: 'OK,I'll show you the infected fileson your computer.' He instruct-ed me to enter .inf into the Startmenu search box, then declaredthat all these files were 'infected'(that .inf stands for 'infected' or'infection').
"At that point, I said I didn'tbelieve that was true; it was myunderstanding that .inf was aparticular type of file that comeswith software installed on mycomputer.
"At this point, he ended the call— probably because I knew that.inf didn't refer to infected files.As it was, I'd had him on theline for a good 15 minutes.
If you get such a call just hangup, I hope this helps any ques-tions you can email me atPaigecs@gmail .com or call(603)747-2201

A Tool for the Trade
The fork - the garden fork, thatis – is a most excellent andinvaluable tool. Four-pronged,with minimal curvature, and ashort handle, the garden forkserves to aerate the soil intowhich it is worked, undo theeffects of soil compaction, and
loosen the grip of weedsbeneath the ground’s surface.
The garden fork that Ryan and Ihave is old. We’re not quitesure how old is old…but it oncerested inside Ryan’s grandmoth-er’s toolshed before it took it’splace within ours. It’s woodenhandle is old and weathered, the
metal components a fadedgreen. This fork has played aleading role as our gardensslowly claim territory from theencroaching woods. It hasenabled us to easily weed ourmore established garden zonesas well as pioneer new gardenbeds. From the “good dirt” tothe “bad dirt,” from the existingbeds to the creation of newones, this savvy garden fork hasnavigated with determinationand resolve a plethora of vir-gin’s bower, brambles, wildstrawberries, sorrel, dandelions,thistles, and ferns, not to men-tion all manner of grasses andundefined weeds.
However, just the other day, theSnap happened: that unequivo-cal crack of long-dried wood.Then, the Exclamation. My ini-tial dismay was vocal, and rico-cheted adrenaline right throughmy stomach. In a split second,my mind was already wonder-ing: how do folks garden with-out a garden fork?
This was a formidable query. Ihad other tools on hand, and didmy best to adjust. A hoe, differ-ent styles of forks, a hori-horitrowel, a shovel…but nothingsuitably erased the soil com-paction without thoroughly dis-turbing the soil strata. And so, Iresumed the task at hand with arather reduced garden fork inmy fist. Not quite as effective,but it did work comfortably…while kneeling. In this manner,the flower bed before me wasprepared with more satisfactoryresults than my other optionscould offer.
This was not the end, however,of the old forkfor this is thebeauty of tools. Wooden han-dles can be made or bought, andthe new affixed to the old. Thusthe work of our garden fork willcontinue, for the weeds have nothalted in the interim. Always,there is much to do.
For ecological garden designand maintenance, orchard care,or weeds pulled from your gar-den or landscaped housefront,please contact Beth [email protected].
R&R on the Livermore Road
The Livermore Road inWaterville Valley is an inspir-ing, easy spring hike. It’s a for-est road that runs between theDepot and the KancamagusHighway with several choiceattractions branching off it:Greeley Ponds, Norway Rapids,Tripyramids, Scaur and FlumeTrails. Since the road passesthrough extensive deciduousforest and follows energeticAvalanche Brook for a largechunk, it boasts the abundantwildflowers that claim thathabitat.
On a recent hike, little whitewood anemones greeted me,along with wild oat bells, redtrillium, and lots of bloomingtrout lilies with their spottedleaves. While the trout lilieswere clearly the dominant popu-lation by the time I reached theScaur trail, I noticed a lone stur-dy red trillium had plunkeditself in the middle of a bed oftrout lilies and a whole paradeof tiny yellow wood violetsgathered along the perimeter.No zoning problems here.Everyone seemed to be wel-come.
There’s something for everyoneon that road. A long or shorthike can be easy or strenuous.
The road itself is easy, has onestretch with Irene’s trademarkbut even that has well wornsolid paths alongside it.
An early morning fresh bloom-ing flower never fails to amazeand energize me. The paradewill continue well into fall asthough nature is demonstratingcontinually how it’s possible forus all to share this beautifulearth with such gladness.
The spring species I haven’t fig-ured out how to get along withis the black flies. I was merci-lessly attacked yesterday andreminded that it’s time to get outthe cedar spray and if that does-n’t repel them, my stash ofDEET, less friendly, surely will.Each year, I try to find an envi-ronmentally compatible repel-lant that’s easy to apply on amoment’s notice. (Suggestionswelcome.)
R&R time is important to claim,lest we lose our perspective aswe respond to current news.R&R with nature helps us sortout next steps for our part in thebig picture.

Garnet Hill employees arrivedwith paintbrushes, work gloves,hammers, shovels, and rakesThursday, May 9, for GarnetHill’s Fifth Annual CommunityService Day to help openCopper Cannon, a local campthat serves underprivileged NewHampshire youth. Since itsinception in 1963, the camp hasserved more than 20,000 chil-dren in New Hampshire with aweek of free summer camp.This year Copper Cannon willbe celebrating its 50th anniver-sary.
“Copper Cannon offers lifelongmemories for the children whoattend camp, and their familiesas well,” said Peter Christnacht,executive director of CopperCannon “Receiving this kind ofsupport from local companiesand organizations such as theNew Hampshire Elks Club hasprovided so many kids with thesummer camp experience of alifetime, regardless of income.”
The Garnet Hill cleanup day andthe spirit of giving back set thetone for the season, and the spir-it of giving back is contagious.When Snapper Rock, a GarnetHill Kids supplier, learned aboutthe community service day atCopper Cannon, the companydonated more than 450 pieces ofnew swimwear for the campersand came to take part. “It was anhonor to be invited to be part ofthe Garnet Hill team today, toparticipate in the CopperCannon cleanup, and to do thisfor the children of NewHampshire,” said Julie Rich ofSnapper Rock. “Garnet Hill’sphilosophy of ‘giving back’ isvery aligned with SnapperRock. It was great to be able to
work side by side today insteadof across the table from oneanother.”
Garnet Hill president RussGaitskill said, “Garnet Hill hasparticipated in the CopperCannon cleanup for the past 5years. We are so proud to havemade an impact in children’scamp experience through build-ing new tent platforms, forgingnew trails, and prepping thecamp for opening day. “CopperCannon is a Garnet Hill tradi-tion. It is a team-building expe-rience that brings people togeth-er for a worthy cause.” This year, employees wereasked what it means to thempersonally to give back and par-ticipate in the CommunityService Day at Copper Cannon.“My favorite part is standingthere at the end of the day andseeing what we’ve accom-plished together — there isnothing like it,” said SandyHamilton.
“It means being a little soretoday, but the amazing storiesyou hear about that camp makeit all worth it. I wouldn’t tradeit for anything,” Mary Tremblaysaid.
“It means interacting with yourco-workers on a different level,while working for a cause that’sreally worthwhile,” said ChristiGignac.
“It means coming back everyyear and seeing the differencegood teamwork makes,” KateCook said.
“To me, it means happy chil-dren. And I believe happy chil-dren create a happy world,” saidJae Kim.
“It means that my small effortseems to be helping kids whowould otherwise have had avery different kind of summer,”Courtney Brady said.

***Q: I have an opportunity to buya recording by Caruso,"Chanson de Noel," issued byVictor on its red seal label. I canbuy it for $50. Deal or not? --Carl, Ramona, Calif.
A: Your record was cut justbefore Christmas of 1916 and isvalued in the $5 to $15 range,depending on condition. MostCaruso recordings are not asrare as many people have beenled to believe. The ones to lookfor are his Zonophone record-ings, which can sell for upwardof $1,000 each, depending onselection and, again, condition.My advice is to pass on the"deal."***Write to Larry Cox in care ofKing Features Weekly Service,P.O.

¥ It was ancient Roman drama-tist, philosopher and statesmanSeneca the Younger who madethe following sage observation:"While we are postponing, lifespeeds by."
¥ You might be surprised atsome of the seemingly innocu-ous things that arouse passionsin a group of people. Take thevenerable 1960s televisionshow "Mr. Ed," for example.Evidently, an evangelist namedJim Brown took issue with theshow's theme song, claimingthat when played backward, thetune contains the message "thesource is Satan" and "someonesang this song for Satan." Hispreaching on the subject was sopersuasive that members of achurch in Ironton, Ohio, made abonfire of recordings of thesong.
¥ If you're planning to visit theHawaiian island of Kauai, youmight want to trek up to MountWaialeale. If you do, though, besure to take an umbrella, as thatmountain holds the distinctionof receiving more rainfall thanany other place on Earth, withan average of about 40 feet --yes, feet -- of rain annually.
¥ A recent national survey ofadult children with living par-ents found that a whopping 70percent of respondents areagainst the idea of a parent mov-ing in with them. If it becamenecessary for one parent tomove in, though, two-thirdswould choose Mom over Dad.
¥ It was noted wit AmbroseBierce who, in his "Devil's
Dictionary," defined faith as"Belief without evidence inwhat is told by one who speakswithout knowledge, of thingswithout parallel."
¥ Those who study such thingssay that an ordinary humanbeing can live four weeks with-out food, four days withoutwater and four minutes withoutair.***
