Blue spruce stands tall as state champion tree

CONWAY — North Conway is home to a state champion tree — one that looks a lot like the perfect Christmas tree at that.

Outlook improves for toddler but still no arrest in beating

ALBANY — Investigators had hoped for a swift arrest in the severe beating of a 2-year-old child, but by Tuesday afternoon authorities were less optimistic.

“We don’t have an arrest imminent at this point,” Carroll County Sheriff Chris Conley said in a phone call on Tuesday afternoon.

Conley had sounded more positive both the day before and earlier Tues-day, suggesting news of an arrest would likely come anytime. He was probably too optimistic in those earlier statements, he said. “When there aren’t third-party witnesses, it’s a challenge.”

While prospects of quick arrest have diminished, however, the child’s chances of survival are looking up.

“He did make it through the night,” Conley said, and underwent surgery Tuesday morning. Every hour the child holds on, he said, his outlook improves. “There’s hope.”

The boy was brought in to the hos-pital just after 9 a.m. Monday with serious injuries all over his body. Authorities are calling the beating “a domestic-related crime.”

“We’re not sure what the relation-ship is,” Conley said, “but it is domes-tic-related.”

planets

SAYWHAT...Maybe this world is another planet’s

hell.”—Aldous Huxley

(NY Times) — In what amounts to a kind of holi-day gift to the cosmos, astronomers from NASA’s Kepler space-craft announced Tuesday that they had discovered a pair of planets the size of Earth orbiting a distant star. The new planets, one about as big as Earth, the other slightly smaller than Venus, are the smallest planets yet found beyond the solar system.

Astronomers said the discovery showed that Kepler could indeed fi nd planets as small as our own and was an encourag-ing sign that planet hunters would someday succeed in the goal of fi nding Earth-like abodes in the heavens.

Since the fi rst Jupiter-size exoplanets, as they are known, were discov-ered nearly 15 years ago astronomers have been chipping away at the sky, fi nding smaller and smaller planets.

“We are fi nally there,” said David Charbonneau, an astronomer at the Har-vard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics, who was a member of the team that made the observations, led by his colleague Francois Fressin. The team reported its results in an online news conference Tuesday and in a paper being published in the journal Nature.

CAIRO (NY Times) — Thousands of women marched through downtown Cairo on Tuesday eve-ning to call for the end of military rule in an extraor-dinary expression of anger over images of soldiers beating, stripping and kicking a female demonstra-tor on the pavement of Tahrir Square.

“Drag me, strip me, my brothers’ blood will cover me!” they chanted. “Where is the fi eld marshal?” they demanded, referring to Mohamed Hussein Tantawi, the head of the military council holding

onto power here. “The girls of Egypt are here.”The event may have been the biggest women’s

demonstration in Egypt’s history, and the most signifi cant since a 1919 march led by pioneering Egyptian feminist Huda Shaarawi to protest Brit-ish rule. The scale was stunning and unexpected in this patriarchal society. Previous attempts to orga-nize women’s events in Tahrir Square this year have either fi zzled or, in at least one case, ended in the physical harassment of the women who did show.

WASHINGTON (NY Times) — House Republicans on Tuesday soundly rejected a bill approved by the Senate that would have extended the payroll tax cut for most Ameri-cans beyond the end of the year and allowed millions of unemployed people to continue receiving jobless benefi ts.

The House vote, which

passed 229 to 193, also calls for establishing a negotiating com-mittee so the two chambers can resolve their differences. Seven Republicans joined Democrats in opposition.

But the Senate has left town for the year, and Democrats say they do not intend to call it back, putting continuation of the tax cut in jeopardy and leaving a

shadow over many unemployed Americans as the holidays near.

It was far from clear whether the two sides would be able to bridge the gap by year’s end. If they fail to do so, payroll taxes for 160 million Americans will rise to 6.2 percent, from 4.2 percent, in January, for an average annual increase of roughly $1,000.

Sunni leader in Iraq denies ordering assassinations

BAGHDAD (NY Times) — The political crisis in Iraq deep-ened on Tuesday, as the Sunni vice president angrily rebutted charges that he had ordered his security guards to assassinate government offi cials, saying that Shiite-backed security forces had induced the guards into false confessions.

In a nationally televised news conference, the vice president, Tariq al-Hashimi, blamed the Shiite-led government of Prime Minister Nuri Kamal al-Maliki for using the country’s security forces to persecute political oppo-nents, specifi cally Sunnis.

“The accusations have not been proven, so the accused is innocent until proven guilty,” Hashimi said at the news conference in Erbil, in the Kurdish north of Iraq. “I swear by God I didn’t do this disobedience against Iraqi blood, and I would never do this.”

He added: “The goal is clear, it is not more than political slander.”

WHITEFIELD — Slick road con-ditions are being blamed for a fatal truck crash in Whitefi eld on Tues-day morning. According to NH State Police, the driver of the truck was pronounced dead at the scene of the accident, which resulted in the load of steel beams shifting forward into the cab of the truck and crushing it.

The name of the driver has not yet been released. J.R. Reed Inc. Motor Carrier of Dyer, Tennessee confi rmed that it was their truck and driver involved in the crash and that the truck was bound for Canaan, Vt. The company declined to comment further on the incident or identity of the driver. A U.S. Border Station is under con-struction in Canaan, though it is not immediately known if this load of steel beams was bound for that project.

The incident occurred at 5:50 a.m. as NH Department of Transporta-tion road crews were actively treat-ing local highways for the mixed precipitation that had fallen over-

night. Police said that the truck was headed north on Route 116, and lost traction coming down the hill into Whitefi eld. When the truck, a 2006 Peterbilt, approached the three-way intersection with Route 3, it failed to navigate the turn and struck a steel support and sheared off a gas pump at Lufkin’s Service Center before con-tinuing through the parking lot, over the bank and into the riverbed below.

Whitefi eld Police and Fire Depart-ments, NH State Police, Lancaster Fire Department, NH DOT and NH Depart-ment of Environmental Services all responded to the incident. Onlookers came and went throughout the morning as the scene in the center of town caught the attention of local residents and pass-ersby. State Police Technical Accident Reconstruction Unit was on site to assist in the investigation, which is being handled by Troopers Jesse Sherrill and Steven Riendeau of Troop F.

A crane truck was brought in by late morning, to off-load the steel so that the truck and driver could be removed. The recovery effort was expected to take up much of the day, according to State Police.

The driver of this truck hauling steel to Canaan, Vt., did not survive the early morning crash that sent his rig sliding through the intersection of Routes 116 and 3 in Whitefi eld and into the John’s River on Tuesday. (MELISSA GRIMA PHOTO)

CONCORD — New Hampshire offi cials say hunters killed more than 11,000 deer this hunting season — a 14 percent increase over last year.

Bear hunters did not fare so well. New Hampshire Fish and Game offi cials said Tuesday that hunters killed 418 bears — a 41 percent drop from last year.

Hunting season ended Dec. 15, which was the last day of archery deer season.

Offi cials said New Hampshire has an estimated 85,000 deer, and this

year’s hunting season reduced the population by about 13 percent.

Offi cials estimate that 60,000 people hunt in New Hampshire, boosting the state’s economy by $75 million in hunting-related expenses.

State wildlife biologists said the higher deer harvest this year indi-cates the deer population is recover-ing from a series of bad winters that thinned the deer population.

GLOUCESTER, Mass. — A fl u virus similar to one normally found in birds may be linked to the deaths of dozens of seals on New England beaches this fall.

Researchers with the New England Aquarium said the infl uenza A sub-type H3N8 was found in fi ve of the 162 seals that were found dead on beaches in New Hampshire and other parts of New England this year. Experts believe the virus led to a bacterial pneumonia infection that killed the fi ve seals.

“We are now conducting tests on addi-tional animals to learn more about the role this virus may have played in the die-off

and to better understand the virus itself,” said Dr. Teri Rowles, lead veterinarian of the Marine Mammal Health and Strand-ing Program for NOAA. Researchers said the strain of the fl u virus appears to have a low risk of transmission to humans. They said it’s not the H5N1 virus that caused a global pandemic in 2007 or the H1N1 virus from 2009.

Experts said the H3N8 virus is usu-ally found in wild birds, and a variety of it infects horses and dogs. They said this is the fi rst time it has been associated with a large scale die-off of marine mammals.

Sometimes the mailman gets confused and delivers Santa’s letters to me (I don’t know if it is our matching bellies or beards that throws him.) I always read them before forwarding them to the Pole. Here are my favorites. And I hope you all have a magical holiday!

Christmas Letters

To the editor:What does Christmas

mean to you? To some, Christmas is a

day off from work, or just another Holiday. To some, it’s going to a Christmas party, having a few drinks, tell-ing some jokes, a few more drinks — having a good old time.

To some, Christmas has little or no meaning at all; they don’t believe in Jesus, they don’t believe in God, the Holy Bible says, “The fool says in his heart there is no God.” (Psalm 53.1)

To some Christmas is cel-ebrating the birth of Jesus Christ, or Lord and Savior. God’s perfect gift to the whole world. “For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life.” (St. John 3.16)

To some Christmas is dec-orating a Christmas tree,

exchanging gifts with family and friends, going to church, singing Christmas carols. A Christmas dinner with family and friends.

So let us remember the true meaning of Christmas.

“Jesus is the reason for the season.” Accept him as Lord and Savior, and saved, “That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised Him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.” (Romans 10.9 and 10)

Reject him, and be lost. “Jesus said, verily, verily, say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.” (St. John 3.3)

Salvation is free, and it is the very best Christmas gif that you will ever receive.

Wishing everyone a merry and blessed Christmas and a happy, healthy New Year!

What does Christmas mean to you?

To the editor:Do not let Newt Gin-

grich steal the narrative of Christmas, with his state-ments about Palestine. John Sununu was right to respond by drawing peo-ple’s attention to the plight of Arab Christians who were displaced from Pal-

estine with many seeking refuge in Lebanon. If the New Hampshire Republi-can party would like to give Sununu a ‘well done,’ then vote for him on the write in box for vice president. Merry Christmas.

To the editor:It seems timely and appro-

priate that I share with you these words from Thomas Jefferson: “I believe that banking institutions are more dangerous to our liber-ties than standing armies. If the American people ever allow private banks to con-trol the issue of their cur-

rency, fi rst by infl ation, then by defl ation, the banks and corporations that will grow up around the banks will deprive the people of all property — until their chil-dren wake-up homeless on the continent their fathers conquered.”

Banks are more dangerous than armies


To the editor: To the people of Lovell and sur-

rounding communities who have supported me and my family, Thank You! Close to 500 people attended the benefi t dinner on Dec. 3 for me and my family and it was a great suc-cess. The support has come in vari-ous forms: spiritual, emotional and fi nancial. This all means so much to me as I go through my struggle with cancer.

I would like to thank personally Scott Thomas, who is an inspiration to me as he continues with his own battle with cancer and who spear-headed the benefi t dinner. To Mark Moulton, Tom McKenzie and the Lovell Volunteer Fire Department for hosting the dinner, Mark Kurnick for cooking the dinner and to all of the people who donated desserts as

well as their time. A special thanks to F.W. Webb for donating items for the raffl e.

To my family and extended family we couldn’t go through this without your support. If I could thank everyone personally for all they have done we would and if given the opportunity to do so, we will. It has been quite heart-warming to get so much support from the community and it fi lls my heart and gives me strength to continue to go through the treatments. Also, the strength that has been gained by the survivors and their families who have walked this walk before me has given me much hope. Thank you for sharing your stories.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.

Thanks for support as I go through struggle with cancer

Progressives at work to make us a nation of ScroogesTo the editor:In her column of Nov. 25, “Birthers

and Despots,” Susan Bruce attacked, obviously without having read, the report issued on November 1 by the statutory committee I chaired whose charge was to review state participa-tion in federal grant-in-aid programs.

The primary motivation for estab-lishing this committee was the stark reality that more than 30 percent of the operating budget of the state of New Hampshire consists of federal grants and that 40 percent of the expenditures of the federal govern-ment are borrowed. It being obvious that this state of affairs is unsustain-able, that the federal government will have to reduce expenditures, and that this will inevitably be refl ected in reductions in federal aid to states, the Legislature determined that the state of New Hampshire should begin planning accordingly. Secondarily, but equally important, was the consid-eration that to the extent that fund-ing of governmental activities and administration of its use are diverted to more remote levels of government, representative government is under-mined, accountability is lost, and indi-vidual liberty is threatened.

Ms. Bruce states that the committee wants to ensure that New Hampshire receives no federal aid dollars for any-thing. This is false. The committee did not take issue, for example, with federal funding of highways or veter-ans benefi ts, because such assistance relates to specifi c constitutional provi-sions authorizing Congress to regu-late commerce among the states, to raise and support armies, and to pro-vide and maintain a navy.

There is no general authority, how-ever, for federal intervention in mat-ters relating to the health, safety and welfare of individuals, which were among the powers reserved by the states. The powers not delegated to the federal government certainly include such minutia of purely local concern as the weatherization and fuel assistance programs focused on by Ms. Bruce. The committee’s

focus being on federal funding, it took no position on what the state may choose to do concerning these programs other than to make the cautionary observation, in the words quoted by Ms. Bruce, that when gov-ernment subsidizes irresponsible behavior and poor decision-making, it will likely generate more of both. But she fails to quote the report’s very next sentence, which reads: “[I]f the state of New Hampshire con-siders assistance in the purchase of home heating oil for needful citizens and the preservation of its sover-eignty both to be worthwhile, it must provide and pay for such assistance itself and cease accepting federal funding and the accompanying fed-eral rules.”

Ms. Bruce’s comparison of the com-mittee’s recommendations with the views of Ebenezer Scrooge typifi es Democrats’ tendency to confound acts of governmental coercion with acts of individual charity. I seriously doubt that any member of the committee would turn away a neighbor in need, but as state legislators we are dealing with the expenditure of other people’s money. Scrooge, of course, was the fellow who seized on the existence of government programs to excuse him-self from any responsibility to the less fortunate:

“Are there no prisons? And the Union workhouses? Are they still in operation? The Treadmill and the Poor Law are in full vigor, then?...I help to support the establishments I have mentioned — they cost enough; and those who are badly off must go there.”

The twin evils of the Progressive impulse to make public assistance the primary function of government are to expand the ranks of the dependent and to suppress the benevolent spirit of the rest. It is Progressives and Democrats, not Republicans, who are hard at work to make us a nation of Scrooges.

and First Church of Christ Congregational, United Church of Christ had been recognized by the Uni-versity of New Hampshire Cooperative Extension as the “New Hampshire State Champion Blue Spruce” in the state's “Big Tree Program.”

In addition to the UNH Cooperative Extension, the program is sponsored by the Society for the Protection of New Hampshire Forests and the N.H. Division of Forests and Lands.

“It's a beautiful tree. It's located between the center and the clothing depot, right off Main Street. I've always thought it would be a great tree to get decorated for Christmas. Who knows, maybe now that it is a state champion tree, someone will help to decorate it for next year,” said Leighton Tuesday.

In a congratulatory letter from the extension ser-vice, national resources steward/state coordinator Carolyn Enz Page wrote that the tall, well-propor-

tioned blue spruce was measured by Kamal Nath and Wendy Scribner of the New Hampshire Big Tree Program and that it has the identifi cation number of 616 in the state data base.

“As steward of this fi ne specimen,” writes Page, “we ask you to take good care of it by keeping it safe and healthy. For information about caring for trees, please call your Cooperative Extension County For-ester.”

She added that a Big Tree team will measure the tree periodically.

The Vaughan Service's blue spruce was inspected Aug. 19. The tree's scientifi c name species is Picea pungens; its common name is Blue Spruce. It is 84 feet high and its average crown spread is 34 feet. Its circumference is 109 inches.

All Big Tree honorees are eligible to place an engraved sign and post to be placed in the ground near each tree.

Vaughan Community Service Inc. chair Ron Pratt

said he is sure that the board will buy the plaque, which costs $50.

History of the Big Tree programNew Hampshire has a long and interesting his-

tory of association with trees, according to the exten-sion website.

“Since the days when mast pines were harvested for the British Navy,” notes the website, “trees have played an integral role in our state's character and economy. The days when the vast expanse of original forest covered most of the state have gone. Today, rel-atively few large, venerable trees remain to remind us of those earlier times.”

In an effort to “fi nd, record, and recognize these magnifi cent individual trees,” the New Hampshire Big Tree Program was started in 1950.

The list of recorded champions now includes more than 200 giants of their kind.

Natural resources steward volunteers help iden-tify, measure, and record these big trees at the state, county and national levels. The N.H. Big Tree pro-gram cooperates with the National Register of Big Trees through American Forests.

According to the Extension Service, the goal of the program is:

* To locate the most outstanding examples of the various tree species which grow in New Hampshire.

* To obtain the cooperation of tree owners to pro-tect and preserve specimens as landmarks for future generations to enjoy.

* To stimulate interest in and greater appreciation of trees as a natural resource.

The beating was severe enough to cause trauma to almost every part of the boy’s body.

“He was airlifted from Conway to Maine Medical,” Conley said.

Police executed a search warrant in connection with the case Monday evening, but they have yet to obtain an arrest warrant. The search warrant was issued out of the Conway courthouse on Monday, but it was sealed.

The investigation has centered around the Golden Oaks mobile home park, where WMUR reported on Tuesday a home was marked off with crime scene tape and vehicles from the sheriff ’s offi ce were parked outside.

The State Police has been working with sheriff ’s offi ce on the case, and the major crimes unit was there on Monday. A call to the State Police detective assigned to the case was not returned by press time.

Maine arrest leads to recovery of items stolen from Conway home

CONWAY — Police used a recovered cell phone to tie a man arrested for stealing jewelry from a State Trooper’s home in Maine to a similar crime in Conway.

The connection isn’t strong enough charge the man for anything in New Hampshire, Conway Police Lt. Chris Perley said on Thursday, but “this is at least a signifi cant step forward” in the case.

Maine State Police arrested Thor Sinclair Sr., 38, of Naples, on charges of burglary and theft by unauthorized taking for allegedly breaking into the Waterford, Maine, home of State Trooper Andre Par-adis and stealing jewelry.

Police found Sinclair after a witness provided investigators with a partial license plate number and vehicle description connected to him, according to the Lewiston Sun Journal.

When police arrested Sinclair they found material they suspected came from other burglaries.

“One of the items was a cell phone,” Maine State Trooper Tom Welch said. He immediately scrolled through the contacts and placed a call to a likely name. A Conway woman answered.

The woman’s home had been burglarized several weeks earlier. The Conway Police Department was already investigating that incident.

Several items matched the description of property stolen from the house. Trooper Welch brought some them to Conway.

“One victim identifi ed four or fi ve pieces,” he said.Local authorities were hesitant to identify Sin-

clair as the burglar, however. Possession of stolen property isn’t enough to prove burglary, Perley said, so the investigation remains open.

Welch said it's likely that Sinclair, aided by his wife, has committed a number of burglaries, but investigators are not sure how many. “We know it’s more than the one we have here in Maine.”

Sinclair’s wife, identifi ed by the Sun Journal as Kristy Engleheart, has not been arrested, Welch said, and is cooperating with investigators.

The theft charge leveled against Sinclair is a mis-demeanor at this point. It could be increased to a felony, Welch said, depending on the value of the stolen property recovered. The burglary charge is already a felony.

Sinclair is due to appear in Oxford County Supe-rior Court on March 6, according to the Sun Journal.

Fund-raisers for Ian Meserve to include Cranmore event and 16-hour hockey game at Ham

CONWAY — Two fund-raisers are planned by the community to help raise funds for local football coach, assistant North Conway Country Club golf pro, Cranmore ski coach, avid ice hockey player and bartender Ian Meserve.

The fi rst is an event at Cranmore Mountain Resort Jan. 6 from 6 to 9 p.m., and the second is “Ian's End-less Hockey Game” at the Ham Ice Arena, Feb. 11 and 12.

Meserve — who was diagnosed in October with cancer — has been undergoing treatment at Dart-mouth-Hitchcock Medical Center in Hanover.

Friends and family are coordi-nating the efforts, according to Meserve's cousin, Mandi Manoo-gian, of Tamworth and friend Kym Campfi eld of North Conway.

The fund-raiser at Cranmore Mountain Resort Jan. 6 is set for 6 to 9 p.m. The event will include a raffl e that is to feature such prizes as gift certifi cates to restaurants in the valley, rounds of golf for four, a weekend getaway to Cape Cod, and much more. Donations will be accepted at the door (suggested $10 minimum per person).

“We have raised a lot of donations, thanks to how people in this valley feel about my cousin,” said Manoo-gian.

Those wishing to make tax-deduct-ible donations can make checks payable to Vaughan Community Services, Ian Meserve Fund, 2503 White Mountain Highway PO Box 401 North Conway 03860.

Donations for the auction are being accepted through Jan. 5. They may be dropped off at the Group Sales offi ce at Cranmore Mountain,

‘Ian’s Endless Hockey Game’Darrell Umlah, executive director

of the Ham Arena, says everyone is looking forward to helping out the cause by playing in “Ian's Endless Hockey Game.”

“We're hoping to get 240 players, or 120 per team, with play from 8 at night to noon the next day. We'll have different divisions, including a pond hockey 'no liftee' class for people who want to help but who are less experi-enced. If they need skates, we can let them borrow some. Helmets will be required of everyone,” said Umlah, who said each player will be charged $25.

The two teams will be broken down into different brackets for men's open, men's over 40, women's, co-ed, and pond hockey.

“I ask people to give me a call if they would like to play. I have a spread sheet I am putting together for all the different brackets,” said Umlah.

The festivities will end with a bar-becue Sunday.

Umlah said sponsors are stepping forward to offer assistance.

“Ian's a great guy. We're really excited about doing what we can for him, and bringing together his friends from the golf and skiing world and his hockey friends to have a good time and raise a bit of money to help him and his family,” said Umlah.

For more information, visit [email protected] or call Umlah at the Ham at 447-5886 or 447-5888.

Two brothers sentenced in connection with April altercation in Tamworth

OSSIPEE — Two brothers who were once charged with attempted murder and accomplice were con-victed and sentenced on lesser charges in Carroll County Superior Court.

The Fraser brothers, Robert, 28, of Ossipee, and Joshua, 23, of Ossipee, were involved in a violent altercation with Robert Bellini on April 5 at 78 Berry Lane in Tamworth.

Joshua Fraser fi red a gun at Bellini and Robert Fraser hit Bellini with a car. Prosecutors charged Joshua Fraser with attempted murder and Robert Fraser with accomplice to attempted murder but convicted them on lesser charges. Several other charges against the brothers were also dropped.

In September, Joshua Fraser pleaded guilty to felon in possession of a weapon and criminal threat-ening and received a four- to 10-year prison sen-tence, which he is currently serving in Concord.

Robert Fraser received a three and one half- to seven-year prison sentence that was deferred for three years — meaning that Robert Fraser is free for now but will have to come back to court in three years to show why he doesn't belong behind bars. Robert Fraser was also given $600 in fi nes.

Robert Fraser's sentence was based on him plead-ing guilty to misdemeanor transportation of a con-trolled drug and felony second-degree assault.

Judge Steven Houran made a point of ordering the New Hampshire Department of Motor Vehicles to not take Robert Frasers' driver's license. The judge did say Robert Fraser must get a licensed drug and alcohol councilor evaluation and have no contact with Bellini.

County attorney Tom Dewhurst said Josh Fraser received a much tougher sentence is because he fi red the gun. Both parties arrived at the sentence through a negotiated plea.

"He had the gun and fi red it," said Dewhurst of Josh Fraser. "That's totally unacceptable," said Dewhurst.

Meanwhile, said Dewhurst, Robert Fraser is on a "very tight leash."

carvers from around New England will return for the 17th annual Great Ice Carvers of New Eng-land Invitational Ice Carving Competition at The Wentworth Hotel on Monday, Jan. 9, at 10 a.m.

This event allows competitors three hours to transform a 300-pound block of ice into a work of art. Each participant may have his or her tools of preference, but expect to see chainsaws, chisels, picks and blow torches as the birds, animals, buildings and other cre-ations come to life on the front porch of the turn-of-the century New Eng-land inn.

“I enjoy having all the vacation-ers, residents and school children at the competition as the participants transform ice into art,” said Fritz Koeppel, owner and general man-ager of The Wentworth. “The sculp-tures enhance the beauty of The Wentworth both day and night.”

Several years ago, special lighting and display stands were installed for optimum nighttime viewing of the fi nished sculptures. Each year hun-

Ice-carving competition returns to The Wentworth Hotel Jan. 9

dreds of cars and strollers slowly pass by in the evenings to view these fl eeting works of art.

There are still a few openings for the competition. Prizes include $500 cash for fi rst place, $250 cash for second and third prize is an overnight stay for two in one of the Wentworth’s Jacuzzi suites with a fi replace, four-course dinner and full country breakfast. The awards cere-mony takes place in the lobby of The Wentworth.

Anyone interested should contact Kathleen DeVitto, sales administra-tor at The Wentworth, at 383-9700 or [email protected] for more information.

Ribbon cutting today for Sweet Maple Cafe

BY JAIMIE CRAWFORD

Conway has a new hot spot. Sweet Maple Cafe, located on 80 Main Street in Conway Village, is opening up shop and ready to serve homemade dishes. A ribbon cutting will be held Wednesday, Dec. 21, starting at 5 p.m.

Sweet Maple Cafe will be offering homemade sandwiches, soups and baked goods. There will even be designer cakes such as a double-layer coconut cake with coconut frosting and carrot cake, all served with hot Arabica coffee.

Wi-Fi is available to every guest, allowing you to work and play at the same time.

Along with the ribbon cutting, Sweet Maple Cafe is also offering a free dinner to any cham-ber member who comes to support the opening. Owner Danette Talbot, all of her employees and the chamber hope the public and chamber mem-bers will come and enjoy some home-cooked food and holiday cheer.

Sweet Maple Cafe is a restaurant that is deco-rated with Danette's creative vision. With a career in interior design she has been working very hard to revamp her new restaurant, and it really shows. She has a fresh menu and a passion for home cook-ing, and she is serving up a cozy atmosphere for anyone who wants to spend time with a cup of tea and their computer or enjoy a full lineup of break-fast, brunch and lunch specials.

The cafe also offers a wide selection of high-quality baking items, broad range of premium coffee and unsurpassed meats, cheeses, produce and dairy. Her hope of recreating the personal neighborhood feel of an old farm and today’s new contemporary style can be felt throughout the entirety of the cafe.

TripAdvisor ranks North Conway region least expensive ski destination in Northeast

CONWAY — TripAdvisor, the world’s largest travel review site, last week launched its inaugural TripIndex Ski – a cost comparison of 20 popular ski destinations across the United States and Canada — and North Conway was deemed the least expen-sive ski destination in the Northeast and the second least expensive destination for skiing in the U.S.

TripAdvisor’s TripIndex Ski presents the com-bined cost of one night’s hotel accommodation, a basic ski-rental package, a one-day lift ticket, a local meal and a bottle/glass of beer at top ski des-

tinations. Salt Lake City, Utah came it as the most affordable ski destination, with a total TripIndex Ski cost of $238.58. Yet North Conway scored just over a dollar higher on TripAdvisor’s TripIndex Ski at $239.88.

With a price tag of $746, Vail, Colo. emerged as the priciest ski spot in the country.

Vito Marcello and family host Christmas party for Army recruiters, soldiers

CONWAY — Soldiers and their families were given a special holiday treat when they held their Christmas party in North Conway last Saturday.

Playing a key role in the party was Army Staff Sgt. Derrick Mead, 33, a Mount Washing-ton Valley native and a 1997 graduate of Ken-nett High, and son of Mary and Ralph Mead of Duprey Road in North Conway.

Formerly an Army-trained sniper and instruc-tor, with three tours of duty in Iraq, the 11-year Army veteran for the past fi ve months has been a recruiter based in Berlin with fellow Staff Sgt. Patrick Sens.

That post allows him to live back home near his parents with his wife — 1995 Kennett High graduate Sara (Brace) Mead — and their four daughters. They are renovating one of their par-ents' Duprey Road homes, according to Mead.

He was asked by a fellow recruiter from Man-chester to help arrange the holiday Christmas

They were to spend the earlier part of the day snow tubing just up the street at Cranmore Mountain Resort, and needed a place to gather afterward.

Sgt. Mead to the rescueBeing the local guy, Mead was

asked to fi nd a venue for the party,

which led him to call his old friend, Vito Marcello, of Vito Marcello's Ital-ian Bistro of North Conway Village.

“I asked Vito, whom I've known for a long time, if we could use his res-taurant for a potluck kind of gather-ing. He said absolutely — but then he said, 'But this is what we're going to do. We're going to have pizza for the kids, and pasta, pasta salads and desserts.' I said, 'Vito, we've got

over 100 people coming to this thing!' But he wouldn't take no for an answer.”

Soldiers and their families began showing up at 1 p.m. Saturday. They were greeted by Vito, his mother Angela and sister Toni Petell, as well as by their staff, all of whom had come in early to cater the holi-day feast, which lasted until 3 p.m.

An Army Santa was among the guests. He gave out gifts, which included stocking stuffers for the children.

“Unbeknownst to us,” said Mead, who has known the Mar-cello family since they fi rst opened Bellini's in North Conway on Seavey Street in 1988, “Vito had had his staff go out and buy stock-ings which they fi lled with chocolates and Matchbox cars and the like.”

The feast was much appreciated, according to Mead.

“The food was unbe-lievable. I went up three times for just for the servings of the Broccoli Chicken Alfredo. They had cakes and cookies, and individual jello cups, which the kids loved. We can't thank the

Marcello family and their staff enough,” said Mead.

The soldiers pre-sented the Marcello family with special awards of recognition during the party in addition to recognizing the company's soldiers.

“Our company com-mander Capt. Andrew Masone gave Vito and his family a special citation,” said Mead, who said the soldiers were truly moved by the Marcello family and staff's generosity.

“They would never ask for publicity,” said Mead,“but I know what he does for police and fi refi ghters and the military. I just think that as a soldier, coming back to this area, it's awesome to know that people are patriots and they're still out there. They care, and they want to do something nice for soldiers.”

“Everyone said that bar none it was the best Christmas party that any had ever been to in years,” added Mead, who said that Vito Marcello often sent him care packages of his sauces when he was stationed in Geor-gia.

On Netfl ixMead was a sniper

all three of his tours of duty in Iraq in 2003

during Operation Iraqi Freedom, and in 2005 and 2007-'08. He most recently was an instructor for the U.S. Army's sniper school in Fort Benning, Ga.

He was featured in the video, “Modern Sniper,” on Netfl ix.

Asked how he felt about the U.S. with-drawal from Iraq after 11 years this past week, Mead said, “No comment. I'm a sol-dier.”

The Marcello fam-ily's restaurant busi-ness began in 1927 in Cranston, R.I. It grew into a number of locations in southern New England “famous for authentic Italian 'more than you can eat' meals,” accord-ing to the restaurant's website.

The family recently moved its operations from Willow Common on Route 16, the site now occupied by Smoke and Water, back to its original Seavey Street location.

most popular ski destinations across North America,” said Karen Drake, senior director of communications at TripAdvisor. “TripIn-dex Ski is a useful tool for travelers who are looking to get the best bang for their buck this winter season.”

According to TripAdvisor, the TripIndex Ski prices out the following items in each destina-tion: per night cost of a hotel (between Decem-ber 2011 and March 2012 within fi ve miles of the destination), cost of a basic ski-rental package, cost of a lift ticket, cost of a meal (burger and fries from three local restaurants on or near the mountain) and cost of an alco-holic drink (domestic beer at three local pubs on or near the mountain).

Prices were collected through a variety of research methods, and apply to travel between December 2011 and March 2012. The "basket" of items is representative of the common items many travelers will purchase while on a ski vacation says TripAdvisor.

The complete TripIndex Ski list can be viewed at http://www.tripadvisor.com/InfoCenter-a_ctr.TripIndexSkiUS.

“It means a lot to us to learn that TripAdvisor, a trusted trip planning resource for travelers, has recognized that North Conway and the sur-rounding region offers an affordable ski destina-tion,” said Janice Crawford, executive director of the Mount Washington Valley Chamber of Com-merce. “With 13 ski resorts and cross-country centers all offering great skiing and value, skiers need look no further than the Northeast’s most affordable ski destination this winter."

Mount Washington Valley’s ski resorts are making snow as temperatures allow and hope to be open for the Christmas vacation week.

TRIP ADVISOR from page 13 Berlin City Auto Group names Drive for Education recipientsBerlin City Auto Group, a family

of dealerships founded in 1980 in New England, and its Drive for Education foundation, a program created by the employees of Berlin City Auto Group, announced the award recipients in its Drive for Education program.

Donating $60,000 to 19 K-12 schools spanning across New Eng-land, Berlin City Auto Group has met its annual goal of awarding more than $100,000 to local schools, Berlin City Auto Group reported. Recipient schools will be honored with a check presentation at a Berlin City Auto Group dealership in Maine, Vermont or New Hamp-shire, Dec. 19-21.

To be considered for the program, a school offi cial had to submit a short essay to Berlin City Auto Group by Nov. 30 explaining how their school would use a donation of up to $3,500. Berlin City’s Brand Ambassadors, a group of employees that lead the dealerships’ commu-nity involvement campaigns, evalu-ated the needs of each school and selected the winners accordingly.

”We’re thrilled to have met our goal of $100,000 in donations to New England schools this year,” said Yegor Malinovskii, vice presi-dent at Berlin City Auto Group. “We believe in giving back to the community and helping our local schools succeed in education.”

Awarded schools include: Mack-worth Island — Windham/Ray-mond; Longfellow Elementary School — Portland; Costal Ridge Elementary School — York; Massa-besic Middle School — Waterboro; Oxford-Cumberland Canal — West-brook; Great Falls Elementary — Gorham; Charles A. Snow School — Fryeburg; Durham Community School — Durham; Lancaster Ele-mentary — Lancaster, N.H.; Milan Village School — Milan, N.H.; White Mountains Regional High School — Whitefi eld, N.H.; Gorham Middle School — Gorham, N.H.; Gorham

From each vehicle sold at its six dealerships throughout New Eng-land, Berlin City gives a portion of sales to the Drive for Education pro-gram. This year alone, the Drive for Education Foundation has awarded more than $100,000 to New Eng-land schools with the fi rst donation of $40,000 made in June of 2011 to 12 recipient schools.

Everett Herbert East-man, 84, of Chatham, passed away peacefully at his homestead farm on Saturday, Dec. 17, 2011 with his son Jason by his side. Herb was born on Aug. 10, 1927 at his homestead farm in Cha-tham and was the eldest of seven children of Ever-ett and Carrie Eastman. Growing up, he worked on the farm and spent much quality time with his "Uncle Hickory."

Herb started working for the State of New Hampshire in 1943 until he was drafted by the Army and was a veteran of World War II and served his country in Okinawa, Japan. Upon his return, he continued his career with the State of New Hamp-shire until his retirement in Decem-ber 1984. During his career with the State, he was employed as the road patrolman in Chatham and Craw-ford Notch. After his retirement, Herb worked for Gordon Brown Log-ging for seven years. He started in the repair shop and then moved on to ground work where he assisted in the construction of two Forest Ser-vice roads. He also worked for Indian Acres/Forest Acres as well as other contractors as a carpenter which he enjoyed very much.

Herb was happily married to his late wife, Kathryn (Jordan) East-man, of Fryeburg, Maine, for 27 years. During their life together they enjoyed dancing, camping, traveling and being with friends and family. After the decease of his beloved wife, he continued woodworking, mowing fi elds, splitting wood, hunting, breaking and fi xing the tractors and tinkering to stay busy and active.

Herb attended the Fryeburg New Church every Sunday and also partic-

ipated in his Bible study group each week. He also served as a dedicated Selectman for the Town of Chatham from March 1989 until March 2007. On Dec. 10, 2011, Herb was proud to be best man in his son's wedding.

Through Herb's life experiences, he offered to all who knew him and to anyone he met, many, many stories and wisdom. He was well know for his helping hand, sense of

humor and his jokes. Herb lead a full life and had an abundance of friends and family.

Herb is predeceased by his wife, Kathryn (Jordan) Eastman. He is sur-vived by his son, Jason S. Eastman and his wife, Jennifer (Zulker) East-man, of Chatham; his brother, Norman Eastman, of Soldotna, Alaska; his brother, Richard Eastman and his wife, Loretta Eastman, of Chatham; his brother, Frank Eastman and his wife, Barbara Eastman, of Chatham; his brother, Nelson Eastman, of Cha-tham; his brother, Charles Eastman and his wife, Marilyn Eastman, of Silver Lake; his sister, Jean Eastman, of Chatham, as well as many nieces and nephews.

He is also predeceased by his special companions Ola Mae Dickey Wheaton and Anna Eastman both of whom he had many good memories with.

A graveside service will be held later in the spring at Chatham Center Cemetery in Center Chatham. In lieu of fl owers memorial contributions may be made to Fryeburg New Church, 12 Oxford Street, Fryeburg, ME, 04037 in memory of Everett "Herb" Eastman.

Arrangements are made with Wood Funeral Home, Fryeburg. Online condolences may be expressed to the family at www.woodfuneralhome.org.

As if shopping for everyone on your holiday list wasn’t hard enough, you have to wrap those presents, too. And, do it without anyone seeing. Well, the Conway Public Library has the solution for young adults in grades six and older. Come to a holiday gift wrapping party on Thursday, Dec. 22. Bring presents you need to wrap and have fun doing it while chatting with your friends. There’ll be yummy holiday snacks, too. Before you know it, your gifts will be ready to put under the tree. You might even fi nd something on the library’s nearly new holiday book cart for that diffi cult to buy for friend or relative. Choose from mint condition hard covers ($5), DVDs ($5) and paperbacks ($1) that won’t bust your budget. And while you’re there, check out some holiday music CDs, stories and/or movies from the Conway Public Library’s collection. They’re the best deal ever: free.

Friends of library benefi t Dec. 27On Tuesday, Dec. 27 you can support your library

by eating out at the Flatbread Pizzeria located in the Eastern Slope Inn on Main Street in North Conway Village. Between the hours of 5 and 9 p.m. a portion of all proceeds at Flatbread will be donated to the Friends of the Conway Public Library. No prep, no dishes. Give the family cook a break and help the Friends of the Conway Public Library do what they do best – fund-ing special programs and improvements not normally covered in the annual budget. A donation will be made for every pizza. You can also make a direct donation to the Friends of the Conway Public Library by dropping off or mailing a check to Friends of the Conway Public Library, P.O. Box 2100, Conway, NH, 03818. Happy holidays from everyone here at the Conway Public Library.

Are you still looking for the perfect holiday gift? Buy a calendar and help a charity. Bernadette Fri-berg and Alicia Leavitt of the Mount Washington Valley “Calendars for Charity” community service project, now in its fourth year, have again cre-ated a memorable calendar incorporating beauti-ful winning and favorite photos from this year’s Mount Washington Valley photo contest along with 12 months of inspiring quotations to enhance its enjoyment year-round. Calendars for Charity are now available on line www.mwvphotocontest.com or at any of these fi ne Mount Washington Valley establishments; The Bernerhof Inn, Bed & Breakfast in Bartlett, Flossie’s General Store and Emporium in Jackson, Eastern Mountain Sports, White Birch Books, Zebs, North Country Jewel-ers, Settlers Green main offi ce in North Conway, Weston’s Farm stand and gift shop in Fryeburg, Fryeburg Academy alumni offi ce and both Badger Realty offi ces in North Conway and Jackson.

Thanks to the many generous sponsors the calendar is available for $10 with net proceeds going directly to benefi t three selected local chari-ties: Starting Point Services, assisting victims of domestic and sexual violence, Mother Seton House, supporting pregnant women in diffi cult circumstances and the Miranda Leavitt Diabetes Fund, providing diabetic treatment, education and support, through the White Mount Health Center.

Dave Pietro and the New York University Wayne Shorter Ensemble will be performing at the Leura Hill Eastman Performing Arts Center

on Monday, Jan. 9, 2012 at 7:30 p.m. Tickets are $10 for adults and $5 for seniors (65 and older) and students. Group rates are available for par-ties of ten or more. Tickets are available for pur-chase online at www.fryeburgacademy.org/pac or by calling the box offi ce at (207) 935-9232.

This year I’d like to encourage everyone to shop locally throughout the winter months. Small busi-nesses depend on your patronage to keep their businesses fl ourishing. If you haven’t already visited some of them, here’s a short list that you should be sure to check out: located in Fryeburg; Spice & Grain, Portland Street, Carol Hanson’s Art Studio, formerly on Portland St. but moving to the corner of Portland and Main St., Northeast Gems and The Good Beer Store, both located on Route 302 West of the village, Whit’s End Pot-tery at 913 Lovell Road and Eden Valley Bakers on Jockey Cap Lane. I’d also like to include sev-eral businesses in Brownfi eld that I frequent and love as well: Brownfi eld Country Market, Rt 113, Depot Street Diner at 9 Depot St., Back Burner Restaurant, 109 Main Street, and Heart and Hand Garden Center located beside the Back Burner. I’ve shopped or enjoyed a meal at every one of these businesses and urge you to try them all.

May the spirit of Christmas bring you peace,The gladness of Christmas give you hope,The warmth of Christmas grant you love.—Author UnknownHave a wonderful Christmas and remember to

I wrote this poem for my granddaughter Shannon when she was 5 years old, she is now 23.

To all my readers, I am blessed to be able to write this column for you. God keep you all and have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

A Christmas StoryOne evening my small grandchild climbed upon

my kneeIn a quiet voice she asked of meGrandma why do we celebrate and give presents

on Christmas Day?I pondered a moment searching for the words to

sayIn the Bible it says, God created the heavens and

earth, I beganWhen all was right he created manThe earth and his people prospered which made

him gladBut soon he saw evil and this made him sadSo he decided to send someone to teach them what

was rightIt happened on a cold winter’s night

He sent his only son Jesus to earthChristmas is the day of his birthMary his mother was a virgin maidOn a lowly manger was the baby laidAngels told shepherds to go witness the eventAnd Wise Men from afar led by a starlight heaven

sentGifts they brought to the newborn kingWhile heavenly voices his praises they singThat is why we celebrate this holy dayWith presents and carols joyously gayI looked to see if she understood what I saidWhen a wonderful warm feeling came over me

insteadFor on her face when I took a peekWas a great big smile though she was fast asleepI lean over placed a kiss on her browContent to sit as we were nowAnd holding her small body remembering Christ-

mases pastI prayed there could be peace on EarthGood will to man at last

After a 9-month battle with cancer, Michael John Small, 61, passed away on Dec. 17, 2011 in the wonderful White Mountains of New Hamp-shire with his mother and sister by his side.

Born Nov. 22, 1950, the son of the late John Henry Small. He is survived by his daughter, Courtney; his son, Eoin; his mother, Irma; his sister, Gwendolyn; and his nephew, Michael.

His passions in life were his children, golf, scuba diving and books which he read every day.

In passing he wanted to thank his hospice care-takers, his doctors — including Dr. Heidi Root, friends and many acquaintances for being a part of his life.

His cremated ashes will be dispersed three miles due East of 803 Ocean Boulevard in Hampton at a later date this spring.

In lieu of gifts of fl owers, memorial donations, if any, should be made to North Conway Hospice, North Conway.

HOROSCOPE By Holiday Mathis

ARIES (March 21-April 19). It used to be a “you or me” world. Now it’s a “you and me world,” and you fi nd it easy to include others in your plans and fi nd ways to help each other and mutu-ally benefi t from the effort. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You’ll provide excellent conversation and entertainment for anyone lucky enough to be around you today. You’re not trying to be funny, but your natural humor will shine through. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). It’s a strange predicament you’re in today. You’ll walk the fi ne line, deciding what to reveal and what to keep to your-self. You’ll do this with commendable grace. CANCER (June 22-July 22). You wish you could tell everyone to “just behave.” Actually, you can. And you will. Whether or not they listen is another story. But you can be very con-vincing, especially when you get that serious look in your eye. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Because of your sophisticated mind, you can respect the other person’s point of view even when you don’t share it. You treat the other person with dignity and set a tone of behavior for both of you. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You’ll make a goal, fully knowing that it may be futile. That part really doesn’t matter. That you have the heart and conviction is what matters most. In fact, it can make the impossible come true. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). How can you speak convincingly about some-thing you know little about? You can’t. That’s why you’ll dive in and try to learn everything there is to know about your subject of interest.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You see life as a privilege. And you’ll help someone who takes life for granted. You won’t have to do anything spe-cial to provide this help. Just being you -- amazed by what life offers -- is enough. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Ask friends for advice and help. What-ever is going on inside their heads, they will share with you. You have the kind of demeanor that makes people want to give you everything. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You won’t mind giving extra care to children, the elderly and/or other needy individuals in your life. Someone has to, and it just so happens that right now you have more to give. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Your willingness to treat people the way they want to be treated will be most appre-ciated. What about you? Don’t you deserve some special treatment, too? Well, you do, and you will get it. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Somehow you’ll manage to charm people without even trying. It’s not entirely a blessing. Sure, you’d rather have people like you than not. Still, you might be uncertain of what to do with all the attention. TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Dec. 21). When you refl ect back on this year, you’ll do so with a feeling of deep satis-faction. In January, you will learn a new language or assimilate with an interest-ing subculture. February brings intrigu-ing social opportunities. There’s a shot at the “big time” in March. Changes in your family will favorably affect you in March. Gemini and Virgo people adore you.

DEAR ABBY: I’m a 25-year-old guy with a unique problem. My father has been dating a woman since I was 16 who has a daughter my age named “Emma.” Over the years Emma and I became good friends -- then more than that. We hooked up a few times. About a year ago, I told her I had developed feel-ings for her, which drove her off pretty fast. We haven’t talked since. She now lives in another state with her boyfriend, and I’m happy for her. With the holidays here, Dad expects me to go to all of the events and get-togethers. I made up excuses last year to avoid them, but don’t think I can do that again. I want to escape the awkward interaction with Emma and her boyfriend because I still have feelings for her. I don’t want to disappoint Dad, but I don’t know how to handle this. Help, please. -- RUNNING FROM THE HOLIDAYS DEAR RUNNING: You don’t have to attend “all” the events and get-togethers, but you should attend a few. When you do, consider bringing a friend with you and minimizing the contact you have with Emma and her boyfriend. Observe the social amenities, keep the conversation brief and casual, and concentrate on the rest of the family. While the initial contact may be painful, this is no different than any other romance that didn’t work out. The awkward-ness will pass if you concentrate on something else. DEAR ABBY: I have been living with my daughter and her family for two years because I lost my job. I don’t pay rent, but help out with the utilities and buy my own groceries. I also baby-sit for them several days a week. The only money I have is an inheritance my father left me to live on, and it is

dissipating quickly. I have met a man and have fallen in love with him. I plan to move in with him soon. The problem is my daughter and son-in-law owe me money. They promised it would be repaid, but when I ask when, they give me the run-around. (They always have money for tattoos, movies and concerts, though.) They also expect me to baby-sit for them on weekends, but that’s the only time I can see my boyfriend. How do I tell them I want to live my own life? I want to be free and not have to worry about them needing me to baby-sit and making me feel guilty about it. I’m afraid they’ll say that because I lived with them, they no longer owe me the money. I don’t know how to tell them without it turning ugly. Any suggestions would be appreciated. -- FRUSTRATED IN K.C., MO. DEAR FRUSTRATED: I presume your daughter and son-in-law have met your boyfriend? Announce the good news that you will be living with him; it shouldn’t be shocking. Ask again for the money that they owe you. Be pleasant, but fi rm, and don’t let it escalate into an argument. If they say they don’t have it, ask them to sign (and date) a note promising to repay it at a later date. That will be your proof that a loan was extended. If they refuse, with no proof that you loaned them money, you won’t have leverage to force them to pay up. As for the baby-sitting, do it when it’s convenient for you. If they want their “freedom” on some weekends, let them pay you instead of a sitter and work off part of their obligation that way. But insist on cash.
