Hunters and other outdoor
enthusiasts are encouraged to
put on a bright orange article of
clothing when they head afield
this fall. Wearing a fluorescent
orange hat, vest or jacket makes
you highly visible, one of sever-
al key safety precautions for
hunters, hikers and others
enjoying the autumn woods.
Several hunting seasons are
already underway in New
Hampshire (see
http://wildnh.com/Hunting/hun
ting_dates_and_seasons.htm).
"Wearing blaze orange has def-
initely been shown to decrease
hunting incidents across the
country," said Josh Mackay,
who coordinates the Hunter
Education Program at the New
Hampshire Fish and Game
Department. "It is important for
outdoors enthusiasts generally,
but especially for hunters,
because the overwhelming
majority of hunting-related
incidents involve members of
hunting parties."
Mackay stressed that, along
with wearing blaze orange, the
top safety rules for hunters are
controlling the muzzle of your
gun at all times and positively
identifying your target -- and
what's beyond -- 100 percent of
the time.
Overall, New Hampshire has an
excellent record for hunter safe-
ty, largely attributable to the
state's effective hunter educa-
tion programs. The average
number of hunting-related inci-
dents per year has gone down
each decade since mandatory
hunter education classes
became required in the 1970s.
The 1960s saw an average of
21.4 incidents per year in New
Hampshire. Fewer incidents

While most hunting-related
incidents do not involve non-
hunters, it's a good idea for hik-

Incessantly scouring the uni-
verse (and my back yard) for
the weird, the wacky, and the
thoughtful so you dont have
to.
The high price of education!
My daughter is off at college
and needed a book on account-
ing, but it was pricey... it costs
$300! A book on accounting
costs $300! Accounting. $300.
Anyone else see a problem with
this? Of course, I have to won-
der if the professor wrote the
book or maybe owns stock in
the company. Would
Accounting for Dummies work
as well ($13.32 at Amazon)?
Just wondering.
On the other hand, I guess the
economy at large must be turn-
ing around! My bank account
just paid me some interest!
Yup! I got a full penny... and its
happened before!! Wowsers!
On the third hand, wretched
excess! Theres The
Hibernator, a breakfast dish
boasting a gargantuan 8,000
calories. The owner of the Bear
Grills cafe in England, said that
only 20 customers have so far
attempted to take on The
Hibernator, which weighs 7
pounds and amounts to nearly
four times the daily recom-
mended caloric intake for an
adult man. No one has yet suc-
ceeded in finishing the dish,
which he requires diners to sign
waivers before attacking. Its
called The Hibernator because
if anyone completes it, theyll
have to sleep for a year. The
breakfast includes four fried
eggs, four strips of bacon, eight
sausages, four hash browns, a
four-egg cheese omelet, four
waffles, four pieces of toast,
four pieces of fried bread, four
pieces of black pudding (made
with pigs blood [Id stop right
there]), two ladles of beans,
tomatoes, mushrooms, French
fries and a 2,000-calorie milk-
shake to wash it all
down. [UPI] Adam?

A New Hampshire man who
tried to sell a 70-pound rhinoc-
eros head online is happy that
charges against him have been
dropped. Ari Goldenberg of
Milton was charged by the U.S.
Fish and Wildlife Service back
in 2012 with selling an endan-
gered species and falsifying
records. Local media report that
there is no proof he broke any
laws. Goldenberg said the black
rhino head was part of a collec-
tion donated to Philips Exeter
Academy in the 1930s. A
woman bought it from the
school and sold the rhino to him
several years ago. He said he
has the paperwork for it. He put
an ad to sell it on Craigslist. A
buyer willing to pay $35,000
turned out to be an undercover
wildlife agent, who confiscated
the head. [www.azcentral.com]
A rhino head? Whod want one
in the first place?
The Sox are done, the Pats
havent really started playing
yet (I am hoping they get their
act together looking pretty
bad so far), and the Bruins are
doing okay in preseason. I so
enjoy watching them all for the
love of the game.
A 19-year-old mother faces
child abuse charges after
deputies say they found her 5-
month-old baby in the trunk of
her car. The Sun-
Sentinel reported that the baby
was lying on a pair of hedge
clippers, a rusted tire iron and
a gas can. Deputies say
they originally pulled over the
vehicle because of the way
Breona Watkins was driving.
When she stopped the car, the
deputy heard a baby crying in
the trunk. Watkins told deputies
that baby had been sitting in the
lap of the 14-year-old passenger
but she didnt want to get a tick-
et, so the teenager slid the baby
into the trunk. Watkins is in jail
under a $7,000 bail.
A former UPS employee in
Arizona is accused of stealing a
package containing a $160,000
diamond and trading it for $20
worth of weed, ABC-15 reports.
Walter Earl Morrison, 20,
thought that the package he
allegedly swiped while unload-
ing cargo at Sky Harbor Airport
in Phoenix contained cash,
according to a probable cause
statement obtained by The
Smoking Gun. In fact, the pack-
age contained one pricey stone.
Authorities say the half-baked
bandit traded the diamond for
the equivalent of two joints of
marijuana. The diamond was
later recovered and returned to
its intended recipient.
Its October already. Where
does the time go? Someone was
right on when they compared
life to a roll of toilet paper the
closer to the end, the faster it
goes!
On an all-too-serious note,
something I dont fully under-
stand. I have lost at least five
acquaintances/friends recently.
I dont know the stories behind
the stories, but if you are read-
ing this and are having issues
with alcohol and/or other drugs,
ask for help while you can.
Take that first (and hardest) step
change has to come from you.
Please. YOLO!
Recently at work, a man came
in and recognized me as being
responsible for the Bermans

Pollys Pancake Parlor Planning Major Expansion___________
Dorchester Grange Rummage Sale
Slated________________________________
Dennis, Kathie, and Emily Cote, the third and forth generations to manage the family-run
Polly's Pancake Parlor, are planning a major expansion of the renowned Sugar Hill restau-
rant. See story below...
With an eye to the future,
Pollys Pancake Parlor plans
major expansion.
Sugar Hill landmark to begin
construction on new shop and
restaurant this fall
Its been more than 75 years
since Polly and Sugar Bill
Dexter began serving pancakes,
waffles, and French toast in a
renovated woodshed next to
their home. In the ensuing
decades, Pollys Pancake Parlor
has served countless pancakes
to many thousands of visitors
and expanded the dining par-
lor several times.
This fall the renowned restau-
rant will undergo a major
expansion, allowing more effi-
cient operations and a move to
staying open year-round.
Were serving upwards of
58,000 people a year now,
sometimes more than 500 in a
day, said Kathie Aldrich Cote,
who with her husband Dennis
and daughter Emily runs the
family business started by her
grandparents back in 1938.
Weve really outgrown our
space, and after a decade of
thinking about expanding and
improving Pollys, were mov-
ing ahead with plans this fall.
Those plans include removing
the current building, construct-
ed in the late 1800s as a car-
riage house and later used as a
woodshed, and creating a new,
larger pancake parlor on the
Route 117 site overlooking the
mountains of the Presidential,
Franconia, and Kinsman
ranges. The project will retain
Pollys charming character
while modernizing the restau-
rants facilities.
From its initial conception as a
small tea room to complement
the Dexters maple sugaring
business, Pollys has grown
considerably over the decades.
Beyond the dining room, which
has a seating capacity of 65, the
converted shed and adjacent
buildings also contain the
kitchen, a separate bakery and
shop, and a thriving mail order
business, which ships maple
products, pancake mixes, and
other Pollys-centric items
around the country and beyond.
Pollys stone grinds the flour
used in many of its mixes on
site, and Dennis Cote continues
to make the maple spread and
maple sugar used in the
Pancake Parlor and sold at the
shop.
The extra effort and homey
character of Pollys are what
have made it a favorite break-
fast and lunch stop for both
locals and visitors from afar.
Throughout the summer and
fall, there is often a line of din-
ers eagerly waiting for a spot in
the dining room and a taste of
Pollys famous pancakes or one
of its New England-centric
sandwiches assembled on
homemade bread.
The restaurant has been fea-
tured in Road Food, Every Day
with Rachel Ray, Cooking with
Paula Dean, the Food Network
Magazine, New Hampshire
Magazine, and Yankee maga-
zine. Pollys also won a James
Beard Award in the American
Classics category in 2006.
With a new, modern building,
the Cotes and their staff will be
able to more efficiently operate
the restaurant, bakery, and mail
order endeavors. Pollys will
also be able to remain open
year-round, an impossibility in
the current building.

will hold a Fall Rummage &
Bake Sale in Dorchester, NH on
Saturday, October 11, and
Sunday, October 12, from 9
a.m. to 2 p.m. at the Dorchester

dren's holiday parties.

Pittsburgh Farms Forests, Wetlands And Fields Permanently Protected______________________________
For the good of wildlife, work-
ing forests, productive farm-
land, and public access for fish-
ing, hunting and other low-
impact recreation, the Society
for the Protection of N.H.
Forests has purchased conser-
vation easements on two
parcels of land belonging to
Roy and Laurel Amey in
Pittsburgs Indian Stream
Valley.
One easement covers 262 acres
that are part of the Amey fami-
lys Maple Ridge Farm, well
known locally for the Ameys
community involvement and
A Day at the Farm events
during the North Countrys
annual Moose Festival. The
farm straddles Tabor Road and
includes two-thirds of a mile
along Indian Stream, an impor-
tant native eastern brook trout
fishery that is a focus area for
habitat protection and restora-
tion efforts led by Trout
Unlimited, one of many part-
ners in the easement purchases.
The farm also features managed
woodlands punctuated by ver-
nal pools, and lush hay fields
where endangered northern har-
riers (a/k/a marsh hawk) are
known to hunt.
The other easement covers
seven acres of hayland and wet-
lands, and runs about 2,000 feet
along both Indian Stream and
the Connecticut River to their
junction just south of Rt. 3.
Both easements guarantee pub-
lic pedestrian access and per-
manent protection from devel-
opment while retaining the
Ameys ownership of the land.
This project was exceptional
in the way it brought so many
conservation partners together
with far-sighted landowners to
protect this special place where
Indian Stream flows into the
Connecticut River, said Jane
Difley, Forest Society presi-
dent/forester. The Connecticut
River watershed has long been
an important focus area for con-
servation, and these pieces are
spectacular additions to the net-
work of conserved lands in this
region.
Partners who provided funding
to purchase the easements
include the Land and
Community Heritage
Investment Program (LCHIP),
the Open Space Institutes
Transborder Fund, the Russell
Farm and Forest Conservation
Foundation, the Hunt
Foundation, three local chapters
and the statewide N.H. Council
of Trout Unlimited, and private
contributors.
The conservation of this land
adds to the mosaic of protected
lands in the area, including the
171,000-acre Connecticut
Lakes Headwaters tract con-
served by a statewide coalition
in 2003. That easement protects
Indian Stream north of the
Amey land. Other nearby
blocks have been added since
then, including the Forest
Societys Washburn Family
Forest, directly across the
Connecticut from the Amey
easements. Roy Ameys brother
John Amey has also conserved
the farm and forestland his fam-
ily owns south of Maple Ridge
Farm. The conservation of land
The conservation easements protect land and access
along Indian Stream, which is an important habitat for
native eastern brook trout. Forest Society photo
across the border in Canada,
including the 13,000 Mount
Hereford Forest, further
strengthens this regions eco-
logical importance.
Maple Ridge Farm is a key
piece within the larger connect-
ed landscape, said Jennifer
Melville, vice president of
grants and loans with the Open
Space Institute (OSI). The insti-
tutes Transborder Fund sup-
ports projects that help to create
protected corridors across inter-
national boundaries that will
enable wildlife to move across
the landscape, adapt and sur-
vive as the climate changes.
Wildlife species dont care
about boundaries. Preliminary
science and mapping supports
conserving this area for species
such as lynx, bobcat, American
marten, showshoe hare, bear
and moose, in the face of cli-
mate change, Melville said.
The success of this project
hinged on the commitment of
the landowners, Roy and Laurel
Amey, to work with the Forest
Society for a successful conser-
vation outcome. Both Roy and
Laurel grew up in the Indian
Stream Valley and have deep
farming roots there going back
three generations. Their moti-
vation for conserving the land,
though, has more to do with
looking ahead than looking
back. They are the parents of
four children and the grandpar-
ents of six, and they enjoy
opening their farm to kids in the
community to share with them a
connection to and love for the
land.
I decided a long time ago I was
just a steward of this land and I
wanted to take the best care of
the land and buildings I could
for the next generation, Roy
Amey said.
Taking the best care includes
the conservation easements,
which will ensure that the land
stays intact and undeveloped
forever, and will continue to
provide access for fishing,
hunting, walking and other low-
impact recreation to the com-
munity. As you get older you
see whats been destroyed,
developed, changed, Amey
said. I want this place to stay
beautiful.
Founded in 1901, the Society
for the Protection of New
Hampshire Forests is the states
oldest and largest non-profit
land conservation organization.
Supported by 10,000 families
and businesses, the Forest
Societys mission is to perpetu-
ate the states forests by pro-
moting land conservation and
sustainable forestry. The organ-
ization owns 53,000 conserved
acres of land in New Hampshire
and holds conservation ease-
ments on another 130,000
acres.

Dogs Ready to Aid Vets
If you're a veteran with PTSD that hasn't been handled well thus
far, or a veteran with a service-related disability, here's a possible
answer for you: dogs. Specially trained Guide and Service dogs
are available for veterans who are blind or disabled by physical,
traumatic brain injury or PTSD.
Patriot PAWS Service Dogs (patriotpaws.org) trains service
dogs to perform services for disabled veterans with the goal of
increasing the veteran's self-sufficiency. Here's a partial list of
what the dogs are trained to do: get help in emergencies, recog-
nize PTSD episodes, take off shoes and socks, help with laundry
(who knew?). Contact Patriot PAWS at 972-772-3282
office@patriotpaws.org.
America's Vet Dogs (www.vetdogs.org) covers a wide range
when it comes to matching dogs with veterans. Dogs are trained
for vision and hearing assistance, climbing stairs and so much
more for seriously injured veterans. It also provides dogs for
physical and occupational therapy at Walter Reed. Contact 1-866-
838-3647 or info@vetdogs.org.
The Department of Veterans Affairs will take care of most of the
costs of providing eligible veterans with Guide or Service dogs.
See www.va.gov/health/serviceandguidedogs.asp for specifics.
Approved veterans will be referred to Assistance Dogs
International (www.assistancedogsinternational.org) for Service
dogs and to National Association of Guide Dog Users
(www.nagdu.org) for Guide dogs. The VA pay for the cost of a
dog and its training, as well as veterinary care, but not for subse-
quent expenses like food.
If you don't need services but want to help veterans who do, go
online to America's Fund (americasfund.org), an arm of the
Semper Fi organization. This non-profit charity steps in to help
veterans with adaptive transportation, home modifications and
emergency funding. It consistently get A-plus and 4-star ratings
from the big charity watchdogs. If you can, open your wallet and
send them some money.

The countrys premier ice danc-
ing company, Ice Theatre of
New York, will be performing
in Plymouth, NH on Sunday,
October 26, 2014 at 3:00 pm.
The event will include a newly
commissioned performance
called ICE: Dance, On Golden
Pond and will feature an
ensemble of top international
and Olympic competitors,
including US Mens champion,
Ryan Bradley. This is the only
performance in Northern New
England this season. Ticket
prices to the event at the
Hanaway Rink at Plymouth
State College range from $18 -
$28.
Art and culture critics have her-
alded the work of the non-profit
skating company. The New
York Times calls Ice Theatre of
New York The best hope for
the future simply because they
recall what skating has the
potential to be: dancing on air.
Olympic television viewers are
familiar with ice dancing as a
sport, but ensemble perform-
ances with a modern dance and
ballet focus bring the art form
to a new level.
This will be a homecoming of
sorts for Artistic Director,
Douglas Webster, who grew up
in the White Mountains.
Webster has gone on to become
a well-known international
skating choreographer.
Bringing Ice Theatre of New
York back to Plymouth is a
highlight for me, says Webster.
Returning to my roots and
sharing with the community my
love of ice dancing as both an
athletic and artistic endeavor is
important to me.
I travel all over the world as a
skating choreographer but
theres no place like my home
state and Im excited to bring a
high quality performance to
New Hampshire. The
Plymouth event features a
newly commissioned work
called "Flight," a quartet creat-
ed by Webster to the music of
"On Golden Pond."
Webster has also been involved
in creating the upcoming out-
door skating rink at Strawbery
Banke Museum in Portsmouth.
He will be the Guest Artistic
Director at Puddle Dock Pond
this winter.

A Walk In The Woods With County Forester David Falkenham_______________________________________
White Mountains
DAR To Meet______
By David Falkenham,
UNH Cooperative Extension
Grafton County Forester
It is possible that I could be
considered a tree-hugger,
depending of course on your
perspective of my forest
philosophies. I have spent my
life working and playing in the
forest. As I wander through the
woods I have been known to
stop and stare admiringly up at
the trees. As a forester I have
been and will be responsible for
the cutting of trees for human
use. Am I a tree hugger?
I am just as fascinated with
small trees as I am the large
ones. I am much more interest-
ed in forest diversity than I am
in the size of the trees. A recent
clear-cut that is loaded with a
mixed tangle of plants is rich
ground for plentiful wildlife.
Large trees inspire awe and
daydreaming; thickets of small
trees trigger the instinct to look
for wildlife sign. All trees,
including small trees, need hugs
too.
Forest diversity also means
diversity of uses, whether it is
human use, wildlife use, or
preferably a little of both. This
is where New Hampshire really
shines. Throughout my years as
a forester I have always
admired the spectrum of forest
uses and ownership patterns
that New Hampshire boasts.
These ownership and use pat-
terns are part of a strong New
England land ethic and are part
of the fabric of our rural cul-
ture. Farmers, loggers,
landowners and foresters, along
with a core of support groups,
work very hard to create an
open and forested landscape
that supports many uses, recre-
ation, forestry, farming and pro-
tected wilderness areas. All of
this is fairly equally represented
and accessible throughout the
state. If you need a place to
walk in the woods in New
Hampshire, it is not hard to
find.
Every year I also explore the
Adirondack Mountains of
upstate New York. In this area,
there really are only two colors
of land use and ownership. The
forest preserves of the
Adirondack Park are vast and
logging is not allowed. The
Adirondack Park is an amazing
place and I appreciate the
opportunity to dip my canoe
paddle into some of the finest
wilderness waterways available
in the east. The trees in this for-
est are old and reach to the sky.
However with no logging, there
is little forest diversity and
equally limited wildlife.
Consequently, the only eco-
nomic activity here is second
homes and tourism.
On the other side of the
Adirondack coin are the very
large private landowners. These
landowners have a vested eco-
nomic interest in their land and
they are good at gaining back
their investment either through
developed tourism or heavy
logging. In this area, land is
either heavily logged, devel-
oped, or completely protected.
There isnt much color or eco-
nomic stability in that equation.
There is plenty of logging in
New Hampshire but it is a per-
centage of a large mixture of
land-based uses. New
Hampshire has incredible land-
scape diversity, both public and
private, and that diversity is
part of our culture and a con-
tributor to our economic stabili-
ty. We have great organizations
that support this land-based
way of life and help landowners
make decisions about their land
and I am very proud to be part
of that support as a County
Extension Forester.
I love the Adirondacks, but I
love coming home! Every year
I sense a slight bit of disap-
pointment as the waters cool
and I hang up my canoe for the
season.
But Hunting Season is coming
and the dogs are ready for some
of the finest walks in the woods
of the year back in the land
were grouse, woodcock, and
other forest critters abound.
The White Mountains Chapter,
Daughters of the American
Revolution, will hold their last
meeting of the year on
Saturday, October 11, at 1:00
PM.
The meeting will be held at
Riverglen House, 55 Riverglen
Lane, Littleton. The program
feature will be A
Patriotic Quilt of the 1930s
presented by Nola Forbes who
will display and talk about a
red, white and blue quilt featur-
ing the 48 states at the time and
DC.
We will again be cutting fleece
lap robes for local veterans in
nursing homes; the ones made
at the October 2013 were so
appreciated that we wish to
expand the number of veterans
receiving one.
Bring your favorite sharp scis-
sors and 1 yard piece of Polar
Fleece to cut and fringe. Easy
instructions will be available at
the meeting; there will be a few
extra shears and fleece lengths
available.
The building is handicap acces-
sible. Guests and the public are
welcome and always cordially
invited to DAR meetings, and
refreshments will be served.
Additional information about
the meeting, or membership in
the Daughters of the American
Revolution (DAR) is available;
please contact Chapter Regent
Marsha Stewart at (603) 837-

Lately I've been keeping com-
pany during the late hours of
each night with May Sarton's
"Journal of a Solitude." I've
encountered her poetry for
years and whenever I do I
appreciate her gift, but her jour-
nal is something deeper, more
honest and genuine. The late
New Hampshire poet lived
down in the Monadnock area
and well understood the small
towns that dot our state and the
land and weather we all know
intimately.
Each night, I read an entry. I
portion it out so that I will not
finish the book too quickly.
Each morning, as Atticus and I
walk or hike, her words return
to me while we pass through the
colorful foliage, along earthen
paths, by rivers and ponds, to
ledges with views more breath-
taking than I've ever noticed.
For this certainly has been the
best fall foliage I've seen in
years. And just as the colors
and the light have been lumi-
nous, so are her words. How
fortunate we are to live here,
and how fortunate to have poets
and writers who understand
New Hampshire. As they
reflect this great area and the
natural world that surrounds us,
Nature reflects who we are as
we surrender to her charms.
There is something in Sarton's
journal entries that pierce me.
A stark reality made beautiful.
It's exhibited in the way she
sees the trees and her words
offer lessons to each of us.
Perhaps lessons we already
know, but need a gentle
reminder to see clearly once
again. How appropriate she
starts off in the fall and notes
the changing of the landscape.
Just as we are currently wit-
nessing as we look out the
kitchen window, walk the dog,
or drive to work.
As Atticus continues to age I
am faced with a new reality.
He's twelve now; in the autumn
years of his life. He's not as
quick or strong as he once was.
His hearing is failing - a bit.
His eyes don't see as clearly as
night, nor do they judge depth
as accurately either. But he's
still well, still enjoys getting out
and about. If we are not out
three times a day he stares at me
as I write to remind me we need
to be outside. "Get a move on,"
his stern look says to me.
"Daylight is burning."
As Atticus ages, I find myself
growing up a bit. For when
dogs are young or in the prime
of their lives, we are all chil-
dren in their company. But I am
learning to accept things that
the young may not quite com-
prehend. One of them is know-
ing we won't be returning to
nearly any of the highest peaks
we've done together. Not at his
age. And the next time I return
to Franconia Ridge or the
Bonds or the Presidentials, it
will be without him. Hopefully
it will be years down the road.
But still I have been forced to
accept the change we all must
deal with when those we love
turn elderly and cannot get
around quite as easily as they
once did.
But amidst the loss, there is a
grace to be found. Look no fur-
ther than the trees that blaze
bright red, orange, and yellow
everywhere we look. May
Sarton wrote: "I think of the
trees and how simply they let
go, let fall the riches of a sea-
son, how without grief (it
seems) they can let go and go
deep into their roots for renewal
and sleep." Then she added: "Is
this a key? Keep busy with sur-
vival. Imitate the trees. Learn to
lose in order to recover, and
remember that nothing stays the
same for long, not even pain,
psychic pain. Sit it out. Let it all
pass. Let it go."
It seems that is the lesson we
are learning in Atticus's old age.
To let go of the past. Past
expectations. Past performanc-
es on the trails. We both are
older than we were when we
started hiking ten years ago, but
while I'm middle aged, my
four-legged friend is now
becoming elderly.
Acceptance has come in the
form of appreciating nature
whenever we experience it and
wherever we can. So what if
we don't go as high as we used
to or traverse for as many
miles? In the White Mountains
we are blessed with waterfalls
and valleys, ponds that are
secreted away where the moose
go to play and eat, and rivers
both strong and gentle. The air
is clean, the wildlife abounds,
and we are still free as we wish
to be as we make our way into
the forest each time we enter
one, leaving the car and the rest
of the busy world behind.
Nature calls to us and we still
respond. Our age doesn't mat-
ter. As we grow older we tem-
per our desires and find new
places to embrace and different
ways of getting lost in nature in
order to get lost in ourselves.
Nature teaches us what we need
to learn. We merely have to
take the time to pause and pay
attention. Right now the trees
are reminding me that in the
autumn they are at their most
beautiful. Looking to Atticus
now as I write this, his eyes are
a tad bit cloudier, his muzzle
has a touch of gray in it.
Beyond that though, he shines
as he always has. Only this
morning, in mountain air clean
and cool, he bounced along a
trail that traces the Saco River
like he was a pup again. Young
and free and happy.
The passage of the seasons is
much like the passage of life.
There are lessons to be learned
and gifts to received, no matter
the time of year. No matter the
time of life.
Just a reminder that you can
always follow Tom & Atticus
along each and every day on
their bog at:

Our favorite winter squash is
butternut, so Ithought I would
share different cooking tech-
niques with those who are also
fans of this delicious winter
squash variety.
1. Steam-bake: Cut the squash
in half, lengthwise. Place
squash, cut side down, into a
glass baking dish, and add
cup of water to the baking dish,
cover tightly with foil and bake
at 350 F for one hour. Remove
from oven and let cool slightly
before handling. Flip squash
over and scoop out seeds and
membranes and discard. Then,
scoop out the flesh and mash
with butter, brown sugar, honey
or maple syrup. Serve as a side
dish.
2. Roast: Slice the squash into
thick, half moon slices, or
peel and dice the squash. Toss
squash with olive oil and cinna-
mon and roast at 400 F for 35-
40 minutes.
3. Peel, then boil: Peel squash
and remove seeds and mem-
brane. Dice the flesh and boil
for 15 to 20 minutes in a small
amount of water (but dont
allow all the water to evaporate)
or until soft. Eat as is with but-
ter, or mash with butter, maple
syrup and black pepper.
4. Microwave: Butternut
squash can be cooked whole in
the microwave. Cut several slits
through the peel and into the
flesh to allow steam to escape.
A medium-sized squash will
take about 10 minutes to cook
in the microwave. Remove
carefully as it will be extremely
hot! Let cool before handling!
Cut in half lengthwise, scoop
out and discard seeds and mem-
brane, before scooping out the
flesh.
5. Bake: Cut the squash in half
lengthwise and place flesh side
down on a foil lined baking
sheet. Bake at 400 F for 30 to
40 minutes. The squash will be
soft and tender when it has
cooked through. Some people
choose to leave the seeds in
when baking and scoop them
later and some prefer to cut out
the seeds and membrance
before baking.

Mr Meyers,
In reference to your last letter,
Sep 12. The baiting issue has
been brought to the Legislature
in the past and its failed and its
futile. In the last session F&G
had gone before JLCAR ( joint
legislative committee on admin-
istrative rules ) and it was
determined that the Executive
director, with the consent of the
commission has, Statutory
Authority for setting bear sea-
sons found in RSA 208:1-a, and
shall adopt rules, pursuant to
RSA 541-A relative to opening
and closing the seasons for tak-
ing bear, fixing the number bear
to be taken and the methods and
manner of taking and reporting
of same.
The Department, under statute
RSA 207:58, Is given guidance
which states " The legislature
finds it is in the best interest of
the state and its citizens to reg-
ulate, protect , restore, and con-
serve the wildlife resources of
the state under a uniform
scheme of management through
the F&G department.
It almost makes it sound like the
Legislative form of government
doesn't want the responsibility
of methods and manners but
know this, If the Gold Dome
were to take on that responsibil-
ity we would be looking at new
House and Senate Bills every
year on season setting, meth-
ods, manners, numbers, ect. It
would be a quagmire. I would
It seems not only autumn has
arrived, but it is also the season
where politicians use our roads
for free advertising with their
ubiquitous signs.
To me it is an egotistical dream
come true for many of them to
see their names plastered up
and down the highways and
byways of America.
Personally, if I see the same
name in a row, over and over, I
make a mental note NOT to vote
for that person, as I find it
extremely irritating. I think
many feel as I do. Perhaps
politicians should do a poll on
Just wanted to let you know I
continue to enjoy your free
Newspaper which I pick up at
Hannaford in Plymouth.
My favorite parts include the
great bird and animal pictures,
the bits of history, and the page
shared by Elizabeth Terp and
Beth Weick. Elizabeth always
has something new to make me
History is indeed repeating
itself
A letter appeared in a recent
edition of a local paper
(History is repeating itself)
in which the writer made a
rather lame attempt to dispar-
age the Koch brothers as being
malefactors of great wealth.
Now, a malefactor is defined as
someone who violates the law
and/or does harm or evil, espe-
cially toward another. The
body of the letter in question
consists largely of quotes from
other writers and the Sugar Hill
resident who penned this smear
provides no evidence or exam-
ples of why he believes this to
be an accurate description of
the Koch Brothers.
I believe that the history repeat-
ing itself is that of, when your
record and positions in regard
to actual issues is not some-
thing it would benefit your
cause to talk about, resorting to
personal attacks and smears
against those who disagree with
you.
I think that we would all do well
to brace ourselves for the
inevitable onslaught of this type
of behavior from Democrats
during the current election
cycle. They will, no doubt, con-
tinue their efforts to demonize
the TEA Party and the Koch
brothers, discourage and pun-
ish hard work/success, increase
the number of people dependent
upon the government and resur-
rect the phony concept of a
Republican war on women.
Russell T. Cumbee
Franconia, NH
just how successful such litter-
ing is.
And please, all of you running
for one thing or another, take
them away after the election
instead of leaving them to be an
eyesore (which they are any-
way) and create environmental
waste that others have to pick
up.
It is no better to me than seeing
McDonald's bags, et al, strewn
around during tourist season.
Marsha Downs
Warren, NH
suggest that If you belong to a
Hunting and Fishing club, and
if that club determines that bait-
ing is unethical ( I agree that it
is the " low road " ) you need to
lobby the Commission at F&G
to end it.
You will find that the
Enforcement dept will not back
you on this for the argument
that baiting is a management
tool. You will find also that Its
the Guides who will fight tooth
and nail on this issue. How else
can you turn a $ so easily ?
Sorry I cant be of more help on
this subject.
Eric T Rottenecker
Bristol, NH
think, even if I don't always
agree. Beth's homesteading
journey gives me insight into a
simpler way of life that so many
of us have come to believe is
impossible to live. She is as
close to Thoreau as one is likely
to get in this day and age.
In addition, going thru your ads
always give me a resource I
either need and may need in the
future.
Thanks for all the work I know
is needed to provide us with this
publication.

Again another anti hunter who if
he doesn't hunt, shouldn't care
about a sport he obviously does-
n't know anything about. I'm not
into football, baseball, basket-
ball, boxing, ultimate fighting or
whatever. If a bunch of guys
want to chase some ball down a
court and kick it into a basket so
be it. If two guys, or in this day
and age girls want to pound
themselves into a coma, so be it.
Until you have participated in
an event, don't put down others
that do it until you have an idea
of what its all about. Why don't
you partisan the government to
rip the teeth and claws out of
coyotes, wolves, cougars, and
bears. It would give the rabbits,
squirrels, deer, and other vege-
tarian animals a more fair
chance of survival if you could.
Heck why not cut off 2 of their
legs so their like man and cant
even catch their food. Its illegal
to hunt at night, per your night
vision gear, and any 10 year old
child born in a family of ethical
hunters, knows that.
Wonder what your excuse is!
Probably born in New York City.
It is the hunters job to take game
by the means of trying to trick or
outsmart his game, if possible.
The best cover scent in the world
sometimes doesn't work. Did
you see the twig that just sent
your arrow two feet over the
deers back. When your musket
doesn't fire because you forgot
to put the primer in and there is
a 400 pound bear that any
hunter would love to take.
Hunting isnt just about killing.
There are things that happen
that leave you with memories
you never forget, good ones if
youre lucky to have bested all
the things that can go wrong,
and memories of what could
have been, when it goes bad.
We are in the animals environ-
ment when we step into the
woods to hunt them. Means of
taking them just help and thats
all. There are no guarantees.
Stepping into a penned in chick-
en coup to kill your chicken for
the freezer may be what youre
talking about in for fair chase.
Tens of thousands of hunting
licenses sold last year. Get a
hold of fish and game and find
out what the percentage was for
hunters that harvested a bear or
deer.
Hopefully Maine doesn't pass
any more ignorant laws against
the hunters. I wish you people
that are so against killing ani-
mals, cared about an unborn
human being as much. That is
cruelty in my eyes, in the worst
form.
Nothing in this letter will change
this persons thinking. But the
person complaining about oth-
ers being unethical is often the
one that should be looking back
at themselves, as in so many
cases of people complaining
against others.
Sincerely,
R.L. Weeks, Danbury, NH

Inspiring Words for You!
Dear Friends, Matthew 14:2234
talks about faith and Peter and a
storm. With a message for us. "COME,
DO NOT BE AFRAID". We can have little faith
or much faith. Do we really trust in Him or
don't we?! That is a question you must ask
yourself. Because when the storms come, and
they will, you need to know. Jesus beckoned
Peter to come and at least he got out of the
boat and began to walk on the water,walking
on top of the problem, not the other way
around! But when the storm roared he lost
his faith,took his eyes off Jesus and began to
sink!I wrote a song "Keep Your Eyes On
Jesus". In these dark difficult days, we cannot
take our eyes off of Jesus Yeshua! He told
them to not be afraid have faith. It is I, Jesus.
So keep your eyes on Him!!!!!

Winter is still weeks away, but
now is the time to start prepar-
ing. With the cold weather
comes the need to be extra care-
ful on the road. Winter dangers,
including snow and ice on
roads, and reduced visibility
from winter precipitation, make
it important for drivers to pre-
pare and focus to prevent acci-
dents. The Professional
Insurance Agents of New
Hampshire Inc. reminds
motorists that driving carefully
in winter weather will help
them arrive at their destinations
safely, and keep their car insur-
ance rates down, too. Being
prepared is smart protection for
drivers, their loved ones and
others on the road, especially in
winter conditions.
"Adequate coverage, including
a sufficient medical payments
limit, is essential at all times,
but a good time for review is
before the winter weather hits
this season," says PIANH
President Scott Johnston.
"Don't fall victim to promises
of cheap insurance that won't
meet your needs in the event of
an accident. Your professional,
independent insurance agent
can review your policy and
offer affordable suggestions
that will help you recover your
losses and protect your assets in
the event of an accident. And, if
an accident does occur, having
a professional agent on your
side will help make the claim
process smooth and less stress-
ful."
Once you are sure you have the
right coverage for your unique
circumstances, remembering
these safety tips can help keep
you safe this winter:
Make sure your vehicle is
mechanically ready for the rig-
ors of winter with a mainte-
nance check.
Have your tires checked before
winter begins. Remember to
check tire air pressure frequent-
ly, as it decreases in cold weath-
er.
Keep your fuel tank at least half
full.
Make sure you have sufficient
fluids in the reservoirs, includ-
ing washer fluid, that is rated a
minimum of -40C temperature
range. Keep an extra jug in the
vehicle.
Clear snow and ice from all
windows, lights, mirrors, and
the roof of your car.
Stay alert, slow down, and stay
in controlthree key elements
of safe winter driving.
Drive according to highway and
weather conditions.
Keep a safe distance between
you and the vehicle in front of
you.
In case of an accident
If you are involved in an acci-
dent, remember, safety comes
first, PIANH says. If you or
someone in your vehicle is
injured, do not get out of the car
unless you are in immediate
danger. Call the police or 911. If
everyone is alright, and your
cars are in traffic, move them
off the street and into a safe
area. It can be tempting to leave
the police out of it if the dam-
age appears to be minor.
However, your insurance com-
pany will need the accident
report from the police to file
your claim. It can delay your
claim if you don't have it.
While you wait for the authori-
ties to arrive, exchange infor-
mation with the other driver,
such as insurance information,
drivers license number, name,
address and phone numbers on
how to reach them. If there are
any witnesses to the accident,
get their information with their
phone numbers. If possible,
write down as many details as
you can about the accident
while it's still fresh in your
mind. Contact your insurance
agent as soon as possible to
report the accident and have the
claim process started. If you
have a camera or camera phone,
take photos of the damage to all
the vehicles involved as soon
after the accident as possible.
This will come in handy should
the other driver try to claim
more damage than the accident
actually caused.
"Call your insurance agent to
review your policy," says
Johnston. "Your agent can offer
suggestions that will help you
recover your losses quickly in
the event of an accident. Should
an accident occur, the value of
having an independent agent on
your side will help make the
claims process go smoothly and
help relieve some of the stress
from the loss."
PIANH is a trade association
representing professional, inde-
pendent insurance agencies,
brokerages and their employees
throughout the state.

White Mountain National Forest Annoumces Dry River Trail Is Open_________________________________
The Forest Service is pleased to
announce that the Dry River
Trail and the Isolation Trail,
both within the Presidential-
Dry River Wilderness, are now
open to the public. In 2011,
these trails were severely dam-
aged by Tropical Storm Irene.
With the help of several part-
ners, the White Mountain
National Forest has completed
enough work to reopen them
this fall. According to Forest
Service trail crew lead Caitlin
Campbell, Working in Dry
River is always an adventure,
and were excited to have the
trail open so the public can
enjoy the adventure as well.
Hikers should understand that
these trails have been recon-
structed at a lower standard
than most trails they are famil-
iar with and from what was
there before. They can expect a
narrower and rougher tread, and
will need to occasionally find
the route in order to navigate
the length of the trail. This
work comes during a year when
the country celebrates the 50th
anniversary of the signing of
the Wilderness Act, which
allowed Congress to set aside
tracts of public land to be man-
aged for wilderness values.
These trails and others in the
Presidential-Dry River
Wilderness, managed in the
spirit of Wilderness values, pro-
vide visitors a primitive experi-
ence with lower development
levels than a typical White
Mountain trail.
The Forest Service was not able
to complete this work alone.
Numerous partners provided
input surrounding the decision
to continue to provide trail
access in these areas, but to a
lower and more sustainable
standard. These partners includ-
ed NH Fish and Game
Department, NH State Parks,
surrounding towns, local trail
clubs, outfitters, guides, and
interested members of the pub-
lic. This project was a part of
the NH Drinking Water

NH Pheasant Season Open____________
New Hampshire's hunting season for pheasant opened on October
1 and continues through December 31. There will be 73 stocking
sites in 50 towns. This fall, 12,260 adult ring-necked pheasants
will be released in all 10 counties during the three-month season,
an average of 140 birds per site. Pheasant hunters have a daily
bag limit of 2, and a season limit of 10 birds.
Pheasants will be released on select state Wildlife Management
Areas, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers flood control areas and pri-
vate lands open to public hunting. Each site will receive approx-
imately 140 birds for the season, with the exception of federal
flood control areas, which will receive approximately 36 more
birds per site. Fish and Game will continue to release birds as
close to opening day as possible and to consistently stock a
Thursday/Friday schedule in-season. All stocking will be com-
pleted by the start of moose season on October 18.
"Please keep safety foremost in mind: wear hunter orange, control
your firearm muzzle and know where your hunting partners are at
all times. Shoot only within your zone of fire, and keep your hunt-

A Slambovian State
of Mind
You will not find Slambovia on
any map, but you will know
when you are there! Slambovia
is a mythical musical state of
mind that appears when and
where ever Joziah Longo and
company take the stage as the
Slambovian Circus of Dreams.
And it was on the stage of
Alumni Hall in Haverhill NH
on September 27th as part of
the Court Street Arts music
series, the Circus delighted a
crowd of both new and long
time fans. Loosely labeled as a
Folk Rock band, the Circus
defies any categorization as the
music spans many styles. In a
radio interview years back
Joziah referred to their style as
Punk Classical Hillbilly
Floyd which still sums it up
quite nicely.
Starting the show with the title
track from their 2011 album
The Grand Slambovians we
were greeted with the declara-
tion that Time has come to
find the reasons, time has come
to find the whys as Guitarist
Sharkey McEwen provided the
fuel for the hypnotic journey,
playing slide mandolin through
effects reminiscent of Pink
Floyd. The adventure had
begun!
It was back in 2003 that I was
first introduced to Gandalf
Murphy and the Slambovian
Circus of Dreams at the Middle
Earth Music Hall in Bradford
VT. Upon entering that evening
I remarked to the owner Chris
Jones that I had heard this band
was pretty good. His response
was that if they were not my
favorite band by the end of the
evening he would refund my
ticket price. There was no
refund and over a decade later I
am still a die hard fan. And of
course there were many in
attendance this past Saturday
who were at that same show
back in 2003.
The Slambovian Circus of
Dreams was founded back in
the late 90's in Sleepy Hollow
NY. Joziah, Tinkerbell Lloyd
(Cello, accordion, flute and
vocals) and Sharkey were mem-
bers of a progressive rock band
the Ancestors which achieved
some commercial success, but
with this new project they
decided to build from the
ground up with a grass roots
appeal. And it has worked.
From open mics and tiny ven-
ues the Circus now headlines
festivals all over the country
and the UK .
Tink , Joziah and Sharkey are
the founding members with the
latest member Eric Puente
Joining the band on drums in
2012. (Former drummer and
founding member Tony Zuzulo
is is still fondly remembered by
fans and band mates alike) On
special occasions Orien and or
Chen Longo (Twin sons of
Joziah and Tink) will join the
band. All in all a family affair.
And as Joziah remarked to me
in a recent phone call, We con-
sider all you folks family! and
it is true as during the breaks it
feels more like a Family holi-
day than a meet and greet. But
as Jo will tell you Its always a
Holiday in Slambovia!

on the band and also check out
Court Street Arts at

Aubrie Dionne, flute and Chris
Gantner, piano
The Department of Music,
Theatre, and Dance at
Plymouth State University will
present a faculty recital by
Aubrie Dionne, flute, at 1 p.m.
Sunday, October 12 in the
Smith Recital Hall at the Silver
Center for the Arts. She will
present a program featuring the
lovely and virtuosic works of
flute literature.
The program includes
Debussys Syrinx, one of the
most famous flute solos of all
time, according to Dionne. The
work depicts the Greek myth of
Pans pursuit of the river
nymph, Syrinx. The program
also includes the music of a
lesser-known French baroque
composer, Jean-Baptiste
Loeillet, and a closing piece
with colorful harmony by Lili
Boulanger, a female composer
who was born in Paris.
Aubrie Dionne is an active per-
former, teacher, conductor, and
adjudicator in New England.
Recently named the principal
flutist of the New Hampshire
Philharmonic, she has also per-
formed with the Great Waters
Music Festival, Granite State
Opera, Brockton Symphony,
Manchester Chamber Players,
Hanover Chamber Orchestra,
Granite State Symphony, and
the Manchester Choral Society.
Ms. Dionne is on faculty at the
Manchester Community Music
School, Plymouth State
University, and the Summer
Youth Music School at UNH.
Organist, harpsichordist and
pianist Chris Gantner will
accompany Ms. Dionne.
Gantner performs at a variety of
churches throughout New
England and has played with
the Granite State Symphony
and on several recital series
including the Manchester
Chamber Players. He taught
elementary music for seven
years, inspiring many youth to
develop an appreciation of
music.
Free tickets for the recital are
available at the Silver Center
Box Office, (603) 535-2787 or
(800) 779-3869.

Today we have to use the inter-
net for just about all of our per-
sonal business, from banking
and shopping to downloading
files.
If you connect to the Internet,
allow other people to use your
computer, or share files with
others, you should take steps to
protect your computer from
harm. Why? Because there are
computer criminals (sometimes
called hackers) who attack
other people's computers. These
people can attack directly, by
breaking into your computer
through the Internet and steal-
ing your personal information,
or indirectly, by creating mali-
cious software to harm your
computer.
Fortunately, you can help pro-
tect yourself by taking a few
simple precaution, here are
some tools to help you do that.
Shields Up you can find this at
www.grc.com, when you go
there click the logo to run tests
on your computers 1056 inter-
net access ports, when the test
is finished you will receive a
detailed listing of what ports
are open and how to fix the
problem if they are.
Symantec Security Check
http://security.symantec.com
this site will also check your
computers security on the inter-
net in addition it will also scan
your computer for viruses.
unlike Shields Up, to run the
program the website will
require you to install ActiveX
Controls to your computer to
test it, after testing my comput-
er I received a warning that no
antivirus program was found on
my computer, that information
is wrong because I am running
their Norton Antivirus, so dont
be hooked into buying their lat-
est antivirus product if yours is
installed correctly and all the
updates are installed.
Audit My PC www.audit-
mypc.com has a variety of tests
from checking your computers
firewall and spyware to testing
the speed of your broadband
internet connection.
PC Flank www.pcflank.com
has several tests to check your
computer from checking the
Internet Explorer to scanning
your computer for viruses.
These are a few of the on-line
programs available to test your
computers security.
Free File are you tired of send-
ing e-mail by text, would it be
nice if you can send a voice
message instead go to
www.speak-a-message.com to
download a free home edition
of their program. It will allow
you to record voice messages
send those recordings by e-
mail, save them in WMA for-
mat and will work with any e-
mail program. You will need a
microphone connected to your
computers sound card to use the
program or if using a laptop the
microphone may be built into it.
Keep in mind these programs
are not designed to replace your
antivirus or antimalware pro-
grams, they are only designed
to assist you in checking how
secure your computer is.

tions please e-mail me a

Adventures in
Homesteading

A Spartan Pumpkin
My pumpkins this year were
cast off plants - though once des-
tined for a clients field plot,
ultimately these and others were
scattered in marginal areas at the
edge of my own garden beds and
sheet mulched areas. They grew
slow at the start, leaves yellow-
ing, objecting to poor conditions
and a lack of attention. But
comfrey planted nearby dis-
played verdant vigor, and the
neighboring stand of jerusalem
artichokes obviously seemed
quite pleased with their situa-
tion. So, the pumpkins picked
up their spirits and strengthened
their resolve - and thus began
creeping, crawling, spreading,
and climbing over their ghetto
garden corner. As if almost
against their will, they grew
healthy. Pumpkins formed,
developed, colored
Nonetheless, a late start to the
season was a bit much to over-
come. With a heavy frost pre-
dicted, I harvested them in mid-
September while still mid-sized
and immature. One caught my
fancy with caricature-esque
bumps and lumps on one side,
and an upside-down egg shape.
I knew just what I wanted to do
with it.
Which was not the predictable
and reasonable things I should
have done, say pumpkin pie or
harvest soup simmered on the
woodstove. No, this one I kept
inside, tilted atop the bookshelf
with two particular folks in
mind.
Come the end of September,
young friends came to visit.
Teo, had just turned 9, and his
sister Linea was not far behind
at 7. They gleefully announced
their presence, along with their
new dog Midnight. While Ryan
and I caught up with their par-
ents, the kids abundant energy
merged with curiosity, leaving
the garden vulnerable to wonton
treading - by an excited
Midnight more than anything.
So, it was time. The occasion
had occurred.
Out came the lopsided pumpkin,
a large spoon, and carving
knives. A creation station came
into being beside the compost
pile. Ideas were flying before I
could hand off the pumpkin.
Harry Potter was the first goal,
with a lightning strike scar
quickly notched. The process
then back-tracked to topping the
gourd and spooning out the inte-
rior...which rapidly shifted to
carving a telescope tube. At this
point the pumpkin was split into
quite unequal halves.
Teo pursued his with gusto,
Linea directing with instructions
from the sideline. They created
a cap, then a helmet, and finally
a warriors headress. With
three-dimensional horns and
decorative features, the excite-
ment was palpable. In a moment
of inspiration, the choice to
make a Spartan headpiece
gained momentum and a fan-
shaped cabbage leaf became the
crowning piece.
It was a fun project as much for
us to witness and the creators to
create. Simple fun, albeit with
food. To share in the kids
curiosity and creativity, amidst
this world of screens and gadg-
ets, seemed like a special thing.
They are youth who recognize
their vegetables and where they
come from, who have seemingly
endless curiosity for the garden
in front of them, and who can
relish the luxury of using (in this
case immature & unripe) pro-
duce for a bout of unrivaled
artistry. If only such simple
pleasure and abundance could
fill more moments, for more
people. Perhaps, then, the con-
nection between folks and their
food, and families and their sur-
roundings would gain more
depth and greater compassion.
Thanks to one lopsided piece of
produce, we shared in just that.
Time for fall clean-up of your
garden and landscaped areas!

services available, plus edible
landscapes and garden designs.

Whats this about Tritan, the
new BPA-free plastic?
This week we learned that
Tritan, the new plastic being
used in commercial products,
including the new bins Whole
Foods is renovating their stores
with, is more estrogenic than
BPA (Bisphenol-A), the plastic
we have been trying to avoid.
Now, we learn that Tritan, pro-
duced by Eastman Chemicals,
is not being regulated by the
EPA due to slick maneuvering
reminiscent of the Tobacco
industrys saga which claimed
that tobacco smoke was not a
health hazard.
Mariah Blakes piece in the
March/April issue of Mother
Jones, The Scarey New
Evidence on BPA-free Plastics:
And the Big Tobacco-style
campaign to bury it, sounds an
alarm for us. We learn that the
BPA-free Nalgene, Camelback,
Evenflo, Tupperware,
Rubbermaid, and Cuisinart
products we thought were safe,
all contain Tritan, without
warning labels for us.
Plastic water bottles have also
been found to be estrogenic,
with increasing amounts of the
chemicals released into water
when exposed to UV waves,
left in the car, sitting on grocery
shelves, or run through the
dishwasher. There is a long list
of estrogenic health problems,
including brain and organ
development in utero, cancer,
diabetes, obesity, problems
with bone growth, ovulation,
heart function, and more.
When George Bittner, professor
of neurobiology at U Texas-
Austin released a research
paper he coauthored in the NIH
(National Institutes of Health)
journal, Environmental Health
Perspectives, stating that virtu-
ally all commercially available
plastics were estrogenic, he was
successfully sued by Eastman
Chemicals. How is this possi-
ble? Simple: for their research
tests, Eastman used Charles
River Sprague Dawley Lab
Rats, which are insensitive to
estrogens and can stand a 100x
higher dose than can humans
without effect. The jury did not
grasp the significance of this
ploy. Of course, their results
were negative.
The above tactics, combined
with well-oiled rhetoric in the
court proceedings that snowed
the jury, mean that our health
effects were jeopardized again,
just as in the tobacco years.
According to Blake, The EPA
quietly withdrew a request for
white house approval to add
some endocrine disrupting
chemicals- among them BPA
[and others] to its chemicals of
concern list because it found
that they may present an unrea-
sonable risk to human health.
This would require chemical
makers to share safe-testing
data with federal regulators.
This despite the 1996 law
passed by congress requiring
the EPA to screen 80,000 chem-
icals for endocrine-disrupting
effects and report back by 2000.
That report has not been forth-
coming.
Meantime, for our own safety,
we need to consider storing
foods in glass jars, give tap
water the respect it deserves,
check out stainless containers
for our packs, and look to
whole foods a meal at a time, as
we create safety measures that
give us some control over our
health.

"Inspiring Healthy Choices For Life"
Dear EarthTalk: How is it that
some food purveyors are con-
tributing to the destruction of
tropical rainforests by ditching
unhealthy trans fats?
-- Billy S., Salem, OR
Most public health advocates
applaud efforts by processed
food producers, restaurants and
fast food chains to get rid of so-
called trans fatspartially
hydrogenated oils added to
foods to improve texture and
extend shelf life but which can
aggravate heart disease. In 2013
the U.S. Food & Drug
Administration (FDA) pro-
posed eliminating trans fats
altogether, but it is unclear if
and when such a change will
take effect. In anticipation,
many big trans fat buyers have
switched to palm oil, much of
which comes from former trop-
ical rainforest lands cleared for
agricultural production across
Southeast Asia.
The concern is that a lot of
companies will switch to palm
oil in order to reduce trans fats
without thinking more broadly
about the health and environ-
mental implications of that,
says Bill Barclay, Policy and
Research Director at the non-
profit Rainforest Action
Network (RAN).
Palm oil may be a good substi-
tute for trans fats in that it stays
solid at room temperature and is
therefore useful as a food addi-
tive in things like snack bars.
But it isnt much healthier: A
2009 study by the federal
Agricultural Research Service
found that palm oil would not
be a good substitute for trans
fats by the food industry
because consuming either type
of fat results in similar spikes in
artery-clogging LDL (bad)
cholesterol and a protein
(apolipoprotein B) that distrib-
utes it throughout the blood-
stream.
Meanwhile, the explosion in
palm oil use over the past few
decades for biofuels and as a
food ingredient and additive has
wreaked havoc on tropical rain-
forest ecosystems across
Southeast Asia. Environmental
leaders are concerned that even
more demand for palm oil could
push some endangered
speciesincluding orangutans,
Sumatran tigers and pygmy ele-
phantsover the brink.
They're losing critical habitat
that threatens their survival and
that's largely driven by palm oil
expansion, says RANs
Barclay.
Higher carbon emissions are
another down side. According
to the Union of Concerned
Scientists (UCS), the tropical
peat soils that predominate in
Southeast Asia rainforests store
huge amounts of carbon.
Clearing and draining these
fields to create palm oil planta-
tions releases this carbon into
the atmosphere.
Green groups continue to work
with palm oil producers and the
governments that regulate them
to promote more sustainable
production and processing and
toughen standards for conver-
sion of land to agricultural use,
but progress has been slow. A
recent commitment by five of
the worlds largest producers
and traders of palm oil to stop
clearing critical forest areas
for one year during a study is a
step in the right direction, but
theres no telling whether other
producers will step up their own
expansion efforts to fill the
void, let alone what kind of
ramped up production will hap-
pen when the study is complete.
And while food scientists are
working on other alternatives to
trans fats that could be greener
and healthier, none are as a
cheap-to-produce and easy-to-
process as palm oil, at least for
applications requiring a food
product to sit on store shelves at
room temperature. The best
thing we as consumers can do
to keep our arteries and our
consciences clear is to dial back
our consumption of foods that
include palm oil or any other
trans fat alternatives. Indeed,
theres never been a better time
to put down those packaged
baked goods and processed
snacks altogether.

control," said Fish and Game
Pheasant Project Leader Karen
Bordeau. "Do take the time to
thank private and federal
landowners when you use their
lands. Your hunting ethics on
their lands and your thoughtful-
ness will help keep these lands
open."
Fish and Game asks hunters to
refrain from training dogs at
release sites during the three
days prior to October 1. Dog
training flushes pheasants from
release sites, often onto posted
property or other areas not suit-
able for hunting.
The list of towns to be stocked
(including road names) can be
seen on the Fish and Game
website at
g/Hunt_species/hunt_pheas-
ant.htm; printed lists are also
available at Fish and Game
headquarters and regional
offices.
Pheasant hunters must purchase
a $26 pheasant license, in addi-
tion to the regular New
Hampshire hunting license or
non-resident N.H. small game
license. Licenses can be pur-
chased at
http://www.huntnh.com or from
any Fish and Game license
agent. Pheasants are purchased
exclusively with revenues from
the sale of pheasant licenses.
All pheasant hunters are urged
to follow these basic safety
guidelines:
Wear hunter orange on your
head, back and chest.
Control your firearm muzzle at
all times.
Always wear safety glasses.
Know where your hunting part-
ners are at all times.
Shoot only within your zone of
fire.
Be sure of your target and what
is beyond.
Always keep your hunting dog
under control.

ing in New Hampshire, includ-
