Draft Horses Working In The Pemigewasset Wilderness, Lincoln, NH___

A new partnership between the White Mountain National Forest (WMNF) and the Draft Animal Power Network (DAPNet) has yielded successful results. This new partnership was formed due to a unique need in the 45,000 acre federally designated, Pemigewasset Wilderness.

agement practices, dictate that only primitive forms of transport and tools are to be used within federally designated wilderness areas. This precludes the use of both motorized and mechanized equipment such as power tools, motors and even wheels. In 2009 and 2010, Pemigewasset Ranger District employees removed two bridges located nearly six miles into the Wilderness. The bridges were removed due to safety concerns and the need to preserve the wilderness character. The bridges were disassembled by hand and components were stacked along the trail Story continues on page A3

Photographer Duane Cross captures something that you just dont see every day and something that you may never see in an entire lifetime. Above is a leucistic Redtail Hawk. Leucism is a condition characterized by reduced pigmentation in animals caused by a recessive allele. Unlike albinism, it is caused by a reduction in all types of skin pigment, not just melanin.

Operation Game Thief Traveling Exhibit To Raise Awareness About Poaching________


The project recently reached its fundraising goal of $30,000. The funds will be used to purchase a 20-foot enclosed trailer that will house the traveling exhibit, which will highlight wildlife poaching cases that have been solved through the Operation Game Thief program. Included in the trailer will be poached wildlife and an interactive display exploring the types of cases pursued by Fish and Game Conservation Officers. "We're very thankful for the generous sponsors who made this outreach effort possible," said Fish and Game Sgt. Wayne Saunders, who is coordinating the project. in Errol, Bear Country Power Sports in Errol, and the New Hampshire Wildlife Federation, each of which contributed $5,000 for the project. Fish and Game is working with The Trailer Outlet in Winnisquam, N.H., to have the custom trailer built.

A traveling exhibit housed in a m o b i l e trailer soon will be making the rounds to educate the public about Operation Game Thief, a key program used by the New Hampshire Fish and Game Department Law Enforcement to combat fish and wildlife crime.

NH Youth Compete In Horse Quiz Bowl_______________________


Forty-five New Hampshire youth recently competed at the New Hampshire 4-H Horse Quiz Bowl in Belmont. Horse Quiz Bowl is a knowledge competition where contestants demonstrate their smarts by answering horse-related questions. Division winners third. Morris said, 4-H Horse Quiz Bowl has helped me become a more knowledgeable horse person as it has given me a place to really put my knowledge to the test and really see what I know. It has enabled me to become motivated to read the sources and retain the information. Although I get a lot of experience from doing tasks at the barn, Quiz Bowl has given me a chance to explore deeper and learn more than just my discipline of driving. Team winners In the team competition, Merrimack County took first place as the senior team. Team members included Erin Barrett, Holly Testerman, Katelyn Leonard, and Courtney Duclos, with Andrea Galliher coaching. Cheshire County, coached by Sue Lawson-Kelleher, placed second, Team members included Connor Greenwood, Lizzie Morris, Nick Shepard, and Kaitlyn Roberts. The combined Rockingham-Coos County team placed third. Coached by Diane Post, team members included Courtney Schrempf, Jackie Johnson, and Megan Allin. Coach Liz Short and Hillsborough County contestants Kelly Regan, Lexi Thieret, Karrie Cormier, and Maria Young placed first in the junior team competition. It took multiple rounds of tiebreakers, sudden deaths and a double-elimination match before the combined Coos-Hillsborough County team of Amie Weagle, Christine Asher, Madeline Short, and coach April Allin took second place. The Merrimack County team of Joy Planchet, Brannigan McNeil, and Brittany Leonardwith Stacey McNeil coachingplaced third in the junior team competition. About New Hampshire 4-H The 4-H Youth Development program brings positive learning experiences to New Hampshire youth between the ages of five and 18 through after-school activities, camps, teen conferences, and other events aimed at expanding knowledge and encouraging community engagement and leadership.

I thought that it was over and the coach said, Do you guys want to go another round? She claims her coach asked her to lie to her mother about what happened. She told the other girls, as they were getting dressed for the game, to pinky-swear not to tell outside of the team, she said. [KTLA.com] Finally, seize the moment! Tyrone Harris, 26, reported for his first shift at Dunkin Donuts in Morristown, N.J., and received his name tag. Seven minutes later, according to police, he was on his way out the door with $2,100 from his supervisors desk.

Gee, with a record like that, I think Id have kept him. Next, female fight club! A Palisades Charter High School student is claiming that her coach forced her to fight with another student after she had reported being bullied by her. The girls fought, resulting in scratches and a black eye. I felt embarrassed and humiliated and ashamed, Cimone Holloway told KTLA. Holloway said she was forced to sit on the sidelines and watch with a back eye the last time she was supposed to cheer with her Pali High cheerleading squad. Cimone, a junior, said that she was at odds with a teammate over a boy. When she arrived to cheerleading practice before a game last month, she claims her coach made them work it out with their fists. Ive never been in a fight in my life. I didnt want to fight, she insisted. But Ci-

brothers and to get ready for it Atti and I took a weekend and made our way to the top of Indian Head. The next day we climbed up to Lonesome Lake. On both occasions I thought I was going to die. But that was so long ago and the summer after that we spent every weekend at a motel in Franconia Notch and often when wed arrive late in the afternoon wed get a quick hike in up Pemigewasset and it always felt like coming home. Weve seen the sunrise and sunset, watched the moonrise and the stars emerge in the darkening sky from its stretch of ledges. Weve been there in spring, summer, fall, and winter. Visited the mountaintop on Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Years Day, and Easter. Over those first few years it became more a walk than a hike for us and when Atticus had his cataract surgery, within ten days we climbed our first mountain and it was Pemigewasset. (Later that same day we hiked Welch-Dickey as well. For after losing his eyesight we wanted to drink in as many views as we could with those new eyes.)

The Adventures of Tom & Atticus

This past weekend we hiked Mount Pemigewasset and by the time we returned home to Jackson I felt a bit wistful. You see, Pemigewasset, or Indian Head to those of us who grew up looking at that rocky countenance and were weaned on the legends of the White Mountains and cherished the Old Man of the Mountain, is like an old friend to us. Summer after returning childhood summer we looked up at that Mohawk made of pine trees and that rocky profile like we were looking up at someone we knew. And gosh, how wonderful to know hed always be there to greet us as we entered the south- So during those first few years ern reaches of Franconia Notch. we climbed Pemigewasset far anything else.

The final push towards the top of Mount Pemigewasset


well return there again and if we never do I want to remember it. (Heres where you see my sentimental Irish heart emerging.) Now before you get worried about Atticus, he is in great health and over the next several months we hope to hike each of the forty-eight one last time through. Im just planning ahead to make sure he stays comfortable. As for the 4,000-footers, they dont mean that much to me. None of them have more sentimental value for me than smaller peaks like Hedgehog, Potash, South Moat, or Pemigewasset. Its just that we been up them so often, especially way back then, wed like to see them while Atticus is young enough to enjoy them. More importantly, now that there are three of us, we want to make sure we get to them all together so that we have this lifetime memory to share. promise of youth, the magic and hope and possibility of it all. Thats what these mountains mean to me. Its one of the numerous reasons we never applied to the Appalachian Mountain Club for membership to their 4,000-footer Club for what these peaks have done for me for us, well, no patch or scroll is ever going to hold a candle to. Besides, why should there be a patch and scroll for those peaks when they are no more important than peaks that arent as high. You see, I came here not to climb the highest mountains but to reach for the stars. Im a fortunate man that the three mile round trip up 2,557 foot Mount Pemigwasset means as much to me as a climb up Mount Washington. For in the end its all about being in the mountains, and who you are in them with and where they bring you in the end. also the first time the three of us climbed it together, and whether or not its the last time, it is a day that will never be forgotten. (PS: How fitting that we climbed Mount Pemigewasset around the same time our friends Bryan, Suzanne, and Sierra Flagg brought a new mountain puppy into their lives. His name? Pemi! May you grow old in these peaks with your loving family, little boy.) You can always follow and keep tabs on Tom and Atticus by visiting their blog regularly at: tomandatticus.blogspot.com.

About four years ago, when the wind farm mania started in the North East, it was reported that Cape Cod was the prime location for a wind farm. Scream, Holler and hand wringing! What will those big Monstrosities do to the tourist industry in MA.? Now N.H. has 20+ of those monstrosities dotting the North Countrys pristine skyline with plans for many more of them on the ridge behind Newfound Lake & other locations. What about our Tourist industry? Who negotiated a program that we do not get any benefits from? The power was needed in MA. & R.I. so it was an act of the Politicians, working behind the Northern Pass debacle to authorize something without the voters and taxpayers being aware they were sold out again by MA. In 1987, they got the new 500 KV line from Monroe N.H. to MA., who then sold the power to N.Y. & N.J. American workers were not hired to build the present windmills. The workers were hired from Spain & Portugal, that was a kick in teeth to N.H. labor. What new assault on N.H. citizens and our beautiful State is coming down the pike ? Concerning the Northern Pass, why can't it be put into an existing right of way, maybe not enough pork to make somebody rich? Respectfully submitter, George Bloom, Warren, NH

Dear Friends, ANTICIPATING THE VOICE OF GOD. EXPECT TO HEAR IT. GOD WILL SPEAK TO THE HEARTS of those who prepare themselves to hear; and conversely, those who do not prepare themselves will hear nothing even though the Word of God is falling upon their outer ears. A.W.Toser. Habakkuk 2:1, I will stand on my guard post. And station myself on the rampart. And I will keep watch to see what He will speak to me. Jeremiah 33:3, Call to Me and I will answer you, and I will tell you great and mighty things, which you do not know. Approach the Father with an expectancy that He will speak to you. Habakkuk asked two questions of God. How long? Why? These questions probably strike a chord with you also. When the circumstances of life seem to be closing in on us, and we see no end in sight, we want to know how long we will have to continue calling out to God with seemingly no response. We also want to know why He would continue to allow the circumstances we face. God finally answered Habakkuk's prayer in 1:5, Look among the nations! Observe! Be astonished! Wonder! Because I am doing something in your days--- you would not believe if you were told. Spiritual vision! Seek the Lord, ask Him to give you spiritual vision! God love you all.

When Teflon is exposed to high heat it can release its constituent chemical, PFOA, as a gas. There are no known cases of direct health problems for consumers, but workers producing Teflon are at increased risk for certain cancers, prompting the U.S. government to call for a complete phase-out of Teflon and related products by 2015. - Credit: Hemera Collection are targets of PFOA, and that scientists have been unable to find a level of PFOA that doesnt damage the immune system: Doses given to effected lab animals were minimaland less, relatively, than levels found in children. The fact that PFOA exposure led to testicular, pancreatic, mammary and liver tumors in rats doesnt bode well for what the chemical may do to humans. Dear EarthTalk: Ive read conflicting reports about the dangers of non-stick cookware. I have a set of older non-stick pans and am not sure if I need to replace them. Are they harmful to use, particularly if they have a few scratches? -- Miriam Jones, Montgomery, AL It may be time to upgrade your pans, given that the U.S. government has called for a complete phase-out of polytetrafluorethylene (PTFE, otherwise known as Teflon) and related products by 2015, due to health concerns. When Teflon is exposed to high heat it can degrade, which causes it to release its constituent chemical, PFOA, as a gas. This phenomenon can kill pet birds, and cant be good for humans either. While there are no known cases of airborne PFOA causing direct health problems for consumers, workers in plants where Teflon has been produced are at increased risk for cancers of the pancreas and the male reproductive tract. Numerous studies have shown that PFOA alters reproductive hormones in the male, causing increased levels of estrogen and abnormal testosterone regulation and that PFOA or chemicals that break down into PFOA damage the thyroid gland, reports Melissa Breyer of the website Care2. Of course, the risk of exposure is much lower for a person frying an egg at home than for a factory worker manufacturing PTFE for DuPont. In 2007, Consumer Reports Magazine tested PTFEbased non-stick pans from several manufacturers and found harmful airborne emissions of PFOA to be minimal. The highest level was about 100 times lower than levels that animal studies suggest are of concern for ongoing exposure to PFOA, reported the magazine. With the aged pans, emissions were barely measurable. Some manufacturers are working on safer non-stick cookware using ceramic or silicone coatings free of PTFE or PFOA. But a 2009 survey of eight such alternatives by Cooks Illustrated magazine did not identify any of the new choices out there high marks. Not a single one of these green pans was without flaws, said the magazine. In some, delicate eggs burned, thin fish fillets stuck, and steak charred

Others stained or point-blank range after Gaye transferred heat inconsistently. Some pans accumulated the browned bits known as fond when steak was seared, indicating unwanted sticking power.

Its What The Locals Read! Northcountry News

Many foodies have resigned themselves to the likelihood that the idea of a non-stick pan might in and of itself be too good to be true. As such, cast iron, aluminum, copper and stainless steel each rate high for even heat distribution and for holding up well at high temperatures and frequent use. Used properly such as by employing a little oil or butter to inhibit food from stickingsuch pans can last decades.

Cosauke...

Adventures in Homesteading

by Beth Weick

physical labor versus economic work, creativity versus entertainment, beauty rather than media, bird songs versus ring tones, the roar of the river versus the whir of gadgetry, conversation versus channels, reflection versus reaction. Sometimes we wonder how others live at the pace and demands At of the outside world. Cosauke, balance and reflection are the texture of life. We can reset, recalibrate, remember the choices we have, the love we hold, the life we want. The cabin may be 16 x 14, but theres ample space for ourselves and our thoughts, to cultivate our dreams, consider our fears, and celebrate our joys.
