TAKE YOUR MEDICINE The U.S. Food and Drug Adminstration has approved Sovaldi (sofosbuvir) to treat chronic hepatitis c virus (HCV) infection. Sovaldi is the first drug that has demonstrated safety and efficacy to treat certain types of HCV infection without the need for co-administration of interferon. Hepatitis C is a viral disease that causes BY SARAH CHAPIN inflammation of the liver that can lead to diminished liver function or liver failure. Most people infected with HCV have no symptoms of the disease until liver damage becomes apparent, which may take several years. Some people with chronic HCV infection develop scarring and poor liver function (cirrhosis) over may years, which can lead to complications such as bleeding, jaundice (yellowish eyes or skin), fluid accumulation in the abdomen, infections or liver cancer. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, about 3.2 million Americans are infected with HCV. • • • The antidepressant drug citalopram, sold under the brand names Celexa and Cipramil and also available as a generic medication, significantly relieved agitation in a group of patients with Alzheimer’s disease. • • • A study in the journal Heart looking at the data of thousands of patients who suffered heart attacks has suggested treatment with high-potency statins offers a significantly improved chance of survival compared to those taking normal statins.

Historical Society wants Library preserved

Becky Rylander from the Sunapee Historical Society presented the Selectmen with a proposal to lease or purchase the Old Abbott Library. She touched on the yearly budget, assets, liabilities, and the goals of the Historical Society, as the building is nearly climate controlled, readily accessible year-round, and would preserve a historical building. The Historical Society is willing to explore the possibility of a partnership with either the town or the library or both. The relationship could be governed by a Memorandum of Understanding spelling out the roles and responsibilities of each party. After some discussion, Chairman Gallup was not sure if there was more the Board could do with this proposal. Chairman Gallup asked the Board if they wanted to let the Historical Society put together a Memorandum and put some feelers out on what might be available for funding. In the meantime, the Board will work with the Library Trustees on the cy-pres.      

Weare Selectmen unhappy with lawn care

Selectman Leary received another email with pictures of lawn not being maintained per the contract and feels there needs to be some recourse. Selectman Bohl noted that the lawn care contractor has a lot of excuses and no means to rectify. Selectman Leary said that the Board has had several meetings with the lawn care contractor this year, but he is still receiving calls. Chairman Clow mentioned possibly breaking the contractor out to different companies in the future. Selectman Leary said that if a company is bidding on the contract they should be big enough to do the job. The lawn care contractor is in the first year of the three year contract. The Board will have further discussion on September 8th.

Bradford Fire & Rescue reorganized

Bradford Fire Chief Mark Goldberg informed the Selectmen that the generator is in and is being wired. The Suburban is being built, and delivery is expected in October. The Fire Department and Rescue Squad re-voted to be combined and one new member has signed up. Carl Goldberg is working at setting up a Rescue Squad training class, with details to follow when complete.

Dunbarton man sentenced to 1-3 years

Dana Lemire, 46, of Dunbarton, pled guilty to Aggravated Driving While Intoxicated, a Class B Felony, and Operating After Suspension, a Class A misdemeanor, Hillsborough County Superior Court. Lemire was driving on Paige Hill Road in Goffstown on March 24, 2014, when another motorist notified police that there was a car being driven erratically. Goffstown Police Officer Jaqueline Pelletier located and stopped the vehicle. Lemire denied drinking, but after administering field sobriety tests, which Lemire failed, he was given a breath test which registered a .21 and .22 blood alcohol level. Lemire had also previously been convicted of 3 prior driving while intoxicated offenses since 2006. The Court sentenced the defendant to serve 1 to 3 years at the New Hampshire State Prison, followed by an additional suspended sentence of 12 months after he is released.

Sexual predator sentenced to 60 years

He's already serving 40 years in federal prison after he was convicted on federal assault charges. "I cannot in good conscience admit to these crimes that I did not commit," he said. "Throughout my adult life, I have done nothing illegal or immoral." At Joubert's sentencing, the prosecutor called him a predator in the true sense of the word, saying he made up stories about himself to gain the boy's trust and the trust of the boy's parents. Allegations of abuse from several children and teenagers came to light in 2012, but investigators said the assaults were believed to have happened between 1984 and 2004. On Wednesday, others who said they were assaulted by Joubert took the stand, saying their faith in people was ruined. Joubert had several outbursts as they spoke, and afterwards, his attorneys tried to discredit the witnesses. But in the end, the judge sentenced him to 30 to 60 years in state prison.

Publisher’s Perspective by Leigh Bosse Lessons learned from the Market Basket saga The recent melodrama over control of Market Basket should be a primer on labor relations in this country. The return of Arthur T was one of only two possible results of the doomed power play of Arthur S and his cronies, with the other being the bankruptcy of the company. The standoff began because the Arthur S faction was appalled that Arthur T would use so much of the company's profits to fund the employees' profit sharing plan, leaving a meager $500 million for the shareholders. I confess to being an unapologetic capitalist. Entraprenurial capitalism has been the engine that powered the American economy to unimagined prosperity. Certainly the Carnagies and Rockefellers, and more recently the Bill Gates, Howard Buffetts, and Steve Jobs have accumulated personal fortunes in the billions, but how many thousands of jobs have they provided, and how much have our lives been improved by their successes? What Arthur T and these giants know that Arthur S fails to realize, is that greed

kills productivity and prosperity. 19th century corporate greed led to the rise of labor unions because those capitalists refused to acknowledge that their financial success was due as much to the loyalty, dedication and productivity of their employees as to their business acumen. Unfortunately that attitude is all too prevalent today, with huge six figure bonuses and stock options given to executives of companies which lost money. Some labor bosses display the same arrogance when they refuse to "give an inch" in tough economic times. Arthur T has taught us all a lesson. You are "in it together," and neither succeeds without the other. Wages and benefits must be directly connected to productivity and profitability. By sharing the wealth, and treating his employees with respect, Arthur T earned the dedication of a loyal workforce. Corporate America should follow suit. Union labor must realize that you can only share profits if there are profits and their loyalty is needed in tough times as well as good.

Letters to the Editor Letter to the Editor: Primary voting will take place across New Hampshire on Tuesday September 9, 2014. This year there is a three-way race for the Republican nomination for the office of the Sullivan County Register of Deeds. From my perspective as a real estate title examiner for the past forty-two (42) years, there is one candidate who stands head and shoulders above the other two– I am speaking of Chaunee Baker, currently the Deputy Register of Deeds and a thirty-two (32) year veteran in the Deeds Office. In the past fifteen (15) years I have had the unique opportunity of visiting each of the ten (10) New Hampshire County Deeds Offices. I have observed the daily operations of each of these offices and I am proud to say that our Sullivan County Registry of Deeds is right at the apex in terms of being able to meet the needs of our residents as we proceed through the twenty-first century.

I have known Chaunee Baker for nearly forty (40) years. In 1982 she went to work as one of the clerks in Beverly Austin’s Registry. Chaunee Baker has been an industrious, knowledgeable, integral and hardworking member of the Registry Staff for 32 years. She is a steady, resolute and trustworthy bulwark on said Staff. The Sullivan County Registry of Deeds is definitely involved in BIG BUSINESS. The Register handles millions of dollars annually. The Register of Deeds must be duly bonded and must handle his/her position with complete fiduciary oversight. Lastly, I cannot emphasize enough, that the job of Register of Deeds must be a FULL-TIME position. In past years, both Sullivan and Grafton County have had situations in which county employees were performing duties totally beyond the scope of their particular job descriptions. The Register must be the clerk of the works, must be in total control and must be in the

SO – I ask that you support Chaunee Baker for Deeds – she is the most qualified candidate and I am certain that Ms. Baker can move into the position of Register seamlessly and will perform all her duties flawlessly, in a cool, calm and positive manner. By all means be certain to exercise your right to vote on Tuesday, September 9– BAKER all the way. Gordon B. Flint, Jr., Newport **************************************** Dear Editor: Considering Congresswoman Annie Kuster won’t answer this question when I call her office or write to her, it is only fair to publish it as a letter to the editor: Congresswoman Kuster, Why do you refuse to hold a single town hall meeting with residents of New Hampshire’s Second Congressional District?

Kearsarge group seeks increased solar-electric use A team of Andover, New London and Wilmot residents this fall will undertake an effort to double the number of solar-electric (or photovoltaic) residential and smallbusiness installations in their towns. The project, called Kearsarge Solarize Andover/ New London/Wilmot, is part of a larger Solarize Upper Valley effort coordinated by local nonprofit Vital Communities. Residents in the three towns are encouraged to learn more at the project’s launch event on Saturday, October 18, at 10 a.m. in Colby-Sawyer College’s Clements Hall (part of the Ivey Science Center), in New London. Round One of Solarize Upper Valley yielded 120 new solar homes in five towns in the region. In Round Two, the Andover/New London/Wilmot team will launch a 15-week campaign (running mid-October through the end of January) to help residents and small businesses in their towns go solar. They join seven other towns across the Upper Valley in both New Hampshire and Vermont that are Solarizing this fall. Asked why Vital Communities is behind the project, Sarah Simonds, its energy and

transportation manager, replies: "We're committed to moving our region toward energy independence. With growth in solar technology finally leveling out, and incentives available at the state and federal level, now is the perfect time for New Hampshire residents to be looking into solar." Here’s how the project works:   1. A team of volunteers from the three towns will be working this September to competitively select a partner solar installer.  2. Between mid-October and the end of January, the volunteer team and the selected partner installer will host events, sign residents up for free site evaluations and provide online resources to help local property owners understand where to begin, what to expect and the costs and benefits of going solar.  3. As more residents in the three towns sign up to go solar, the savings, determined by a tiered pricing structure to be made public before the campaign begins, are greater for everyone. If you are even the slightest bit curious about solar, you’ll want to be at the Kearsarge Solarize launch event on October 18.

Redman: Changes needed at Weare Transfer Station Tim Redmond told the Weare Selectmen that there was an issue with a child running out in front of a car. He put up cones to create lanes to have a neutral zone to try to make the area safer. On Friday a resident filed a voice complaint saying that the traffic cones were creating more of a problem than a solution. Recently there was a motor vehicle accident at the Transfer Station, which

reinforces the point that they need to review the traffic patterns and the way business is conducted. The Transfer Station was built in 1989 and in its present configuration, no longer suits the needs of the town. He would like to visit other transfer stations to get ideas on how they are operating. He is concerned with having a bad accident at the Transfer Station.

Historic Hillsborough photos on display

More than 150 prints selected from the Hillsborough Historical Society’s Manahan-Phelps-McCulloch Photographic Collection are on exhibit at the N.H. State Library in Concord. The exhibit began Tuesday, September 2 and runs through Friday, October 31, 2014. The full Manahan collection contains more than 150,000 negatives from a photo studio that operated in Hillsborough, N.H., from the 1860s until 2002. William H. Manahan, Jr., the best known of the 10 photographers who operated it, ran the studio from 1899 until 1953. A large portion of the collection, and of the exhibit, is his work. The images selected for the exhibit include the people, places, events, work and lifestyles of Hillsborough as well as of New Hampshire, New England and the Northeast across almost 150 years. In addition to documenting the region and its people, the Manahan collection is unique because it chronicles the entire development of negative photography, ranging from early glass plate copies of daguerreotype photographs to color film. There is no comparable collection in New Hampshire. The exhibit was curated by Gilman Shattuck and would not have been possible without the help of Krista Gallant, Beatrice Jillette, James Smith, Thomas Talpey and Jerry Hanauer. Over the 12 years since the collection was given to the Society, a group of dedicated volunteers has largely completed the conservation and preservation work necessary to maintain the collection for future generations. This work was made possible by a number of grants and generous donations that provided archival storage material, computer equipment and training. A major early grant was from the Conservation License Plate Program administered by the N.H. State Library, a division of the N.H. Department of Cultural Resources. There will be an opening reception for the exhibit at the State Library on Wednesday, September 17 from 5 to 7 p.m. The public is welcome to attend.

97th Annual Francestown Labor Day Celebration successful Francestown's annual Labor Day Parade theme “Let’s Take a Trip” was

Little progress made at house

Henniker Town Administrator Tom Yennerell updated the Selectmen on the progress made on the demolition of Carl Hamel's house at 177 Tanglewood Drive. Heavy snow loads collapsed the roof of Hamel's house on February 21st and several neighbors have complained to the Board about the unsafe status of the building. At its last meeting, the Board had given Hamel a deadline of October 1st to make suitable progress at clearing the site. In the meantime, he was required to fence in the collapsed building. He was also required to make regular reports on his progress and if none was made, the timeline would be updated. Tuesday, Yennerell reported on his inspection earlier that day. He presented photos showing a limited area had been fenced and little progress made at clearing the site. The Board asked Yennerell to send Hamel a certified letter indicating that if sufficient progress had not been accomplished by their September 16th meeting, an order for removal of the hazardous structure would be issued.

30% bigger this year from those in recent years, according to organizer Diana Place. The 97th annual Francestown Labor Day Celebration was originally held as a Red Cross fundraiser during World

War I. The four-day weekend celebration that starts the Friday before Labor Day is the biggest fundraiser for the Francestown Improvement and Historical Society.

A large crowd lined the street to witness the parade.

Town of Warner hosts the crew of the USS Kearsarge Flags flew along Main Street Wednesday and Thursday as the town of Warner welcomed about 20 crew members from the USS Kearsarge, who were visiting Warner to renew an old tradition of climbing the mountain of their ship's namesake and performing community service on the mountain. The crew spent most of the morning and afternoon of September 3 on the mountain, clearing brush to open up the vistas. Residents turned out for a meet and greet with the crew at 6 p.m. at the Town Hall, followed by a community pot luck dinner. The after-dinner program featured interesting facts about the mountain, life on the ship. Town officials presented a "USS Kearsarge Day" proclamation to the crew. On Thursday the crew toured the town's museums, and other points of interest. The USS Kearsarge is an amphibious assault ship, which hauls cargo, vehicles, and serves as a launch site for helicopters and fighter jets. In its non-combatant role, it provides humanitarian missions around the world.

Warner's Masons learn about Flowers

Mrs. Barbara Corson, owner of the Cranberry Barn Flower Shop in Contoocook was the guest speaker at the meeting of Harris Lodge #91, A & F.M on Wednesday, August 13, 2014.  She was introduced by Robert Lethbridge (L), Past District Deputy of the Fourth Masonic District and a Past Master of Harris Lodge. Barbara’s topic was “How To Set Up And Run A Small Flower Shop.”  She has been in business at the same location on Park Avenue for the past 29 years and provides flowers for Harris Lodge for special occasions, such as installations and special ladies night. She brings potted plants at Christmas and Easter to be distributed to the widows of departed members of the lodge.  Her customers reside in the general Merrimack County area. Barbara told me that as she was speaking that evening, she noticed that her audience was listening intensely to her subject matter.  While the focus of her presentation dealt with the “ins and outs” of a small business, she found that she had to keep up with the current trends of flower arranging and delivery to her customers, many of whom are repeat customers.  From watching her arrange a display, it was obvious that she knew her craft.  Mrs. Corson told me that there is a common misunderstanding about sending flowers to a funeral home.  She said that it is important to realize that “the flowers being sent are for the members of the family and not the departed.” My impression of this program was that Barbara had only “scratched the surface” and due to the interest shown, there are many other areas that she had not touched upon, giving rise to additional presentations.
