In the contact tracing process, DHHS is looking for contacts who have been within six feet of an infected individual for a cumulative period of 10 min- utes over the course of a day.

Goffstown Drug Take Back DayOn Saturday, October 24, 2020 from

10 a.m. to 2 p.m. the Goffstown Police Department and the U.S. Drug Enforce-ment Administration (DEA) will provide the public with an opportunity to prevent medication abuse and theft by ridding their homes of potentially dangerous expired, unused, and unwanted prescription drugs. This national initiative will provide an opportunity for the public to surrender pharmaceutical controlled substances and other medications to law enforcement offi-cers for destruction. The service is free and anonymous, no questions asked. Only pills and patches can be accepted; No needles or liquids can be accepted. Goffstown Police Department will adhere to CDC Covid-19 guidelines and we will be setup outside the police department. We ask that all partici-pants abide by the CDC recommendations to prevent the spread of COVID-19.

Hopkinton’s Harold Martin shifts to remote with 14 faculty & staff quarantinedSuperintendent Steve Chamberlain

has announced that two members of the Harold Martin School staff have confirmed cases of COVID-19. Principal William Carozza and School Nurse Jean Picard have been in contact with the De-partment of Health and Human Services, and students and staff in need of quaran-tining based on contact tracing guidelines have been informed.

Following Nurse Picard’s consulta-tion with the Department of Health and Human Services to determine the extent of the contact tracing from the confirmed cases of COVID- 19, fourteen faculty/staff members will be quarantined. Mr. Caro-zza and his team worked through sched-ules and coverage to see if it was possible to conduct in-person school safely with 14 faculty/staff members quarantined, but it is impossible to hold in-person school

with 14 faculty/staff members in quar-antine. The faculty/staff members will be released from quarantine and ready to restart in-person school on Monday, October 26.

As a result, Harold Martin School was closed on Tuesday, October 13.

Remote learning began Wednesday,

October 14 and will extend through Friday, October 23. Earlier this week the faculty and staff spent time working with the two full-time remote teachers on effec-tive applications, newly developed proce-dures, and protocols. Mr. Carozza will be communicating with the HMS community regarding remote learning specifics.

Weare Boy Scouts from Troop 529 just completed the Cycling Merit Badge,  completing two 10 mile trips, two 15 mile trips, two 25 mile trips, and finally - the 50 mile trip.  The 50 mile trip needed to be completed in 8 hours. These boys easily demonstrated being "physi-cally strong" and "mentally awake" to complete this badge.

Goffstown voters are receiving fraudulent ballot requestsGoffstown voters and those in a handful

of other towns have received mailers con-taining request forms for absentee ballots that appeared to be from their town clerks, but came from an unknown entity, possibly from outside New Hampshire.

The mailers that appeared in Goffstown had no return address, but came in what looked like a hand-addressed envelope. The postmark was from Kearny, NJ. Inside were two absentee ballot request forms, and a yellow sticky note that read, “YOU

ARE NEEDED please fill this out & mail it in.” The envelope also contained a stamped envelope addressed to Cathy Ball, Goff-stown’s town clerk. Ball said the mailers started showing up on Thursday and have already created confusion.

Assistant Attorney General Nicholas Chong Yen said it was important to know where forms like this are coming from, to avoid confusing voters who have already requested absentee ballots or who have received absentee ballots.

Grapefruit juice is already listed as a substance to avoid when taking QT-prolonging medications because it in-creases the toxicity of many drugs. Investigators have now confirmed the QT-prolonging effects of grapefruit juice in a new study and call for a stronger warning to patients who are taking QT-prolonging drugs or who have long QT syndrome because of the potential risk. They report their findings in HeartRhythm, the official

journal of the Heart Rhythm Society and the Cardiac Electrophysiology Society, published by Elsevier. There are over 200 medications that pro-long the QT interval, the time it takes for your heart muscle to recharge between beats. The list includes not only antiarrhythmic drugs, but also medications with no cardiac indications such as some antibiotics, antihis-tamines, and antipsychotic drugs. These drugs work mainly by blocking a specific “IKr” potassium channel on the myocardial (cardiac muscle) cell membrane, thus prolonging the repolarization in the ventricles of the heart. Abnormalities in the QT interval can also be caused by genetic conditions such as long QT syndrome.

• • •The widely prescribed statin, simvastatin, can medically help patients with secondary progressive Multiple Sclerosis (SPMS)-for reasons that might be unrelated to the drug’s intended cholesterol-lowering affects, a study published in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS) has found. MS affects over 100,000 people in the UK, and most expect to develop a progressive form of the condition. It causes problems with how people walk, move, see, think, and feel. There is currently no cure for MS and little effective treatment for SPMS.

SodaSodas can have up to 11 teaspoons of sugar per serving. To add insult to injury, sodas also contain phosphoric and citric acids, which eat away at tooth enamel. Diet soft drinks let you skip the sugar, but they may have even more acid in the form of the artificial sweeteners.

Sports DrinksThese drinks are usually high in sugar. Like soda or candy, sugary sports drinks create an acid attack on the enamel of your teeth. Drinking them frequently can lead to decay. A better way to stay hydrated at the gym is to chug sugar-free, calorie-free water.

Fruit JuiceMost fruit juices are loaded with sugar. Some juices can have as much sugar per serving as soda. For example, there are only 10 more grams of sugar in orange soda than in orange juice. Fruits are naturally sweet, so look for juice that has no added sugar. You can also reduce the sugar content by diluting juice with some water.

Drinking Red WineThe acids in wine eat away at tooth enamel, creating rough spots that make teeth more vulnerable to staining. Red wine also contains a deep pigment called chromo-gen and tannins, which help the color stick to the teeth. This combination makes it easy for the wine’s red color to stay with you long after your glass is empty.

New London Rotary presents masks to Kearsarge School, Food Bank & Visiting NursesThe New London Rotary Club presented

2,000 surgical masks to the Kearsarge Regional School District on Friday, October 9th, 2020 at the School District’s main offices at 114 Cougar Court, New London. The New London Rotary Club also pre-sented a total of 2,000 masks to the Visit-ing Nurses Association and the Kearsarge Food Bank. Friday, October 16th, the Club is presenting 1,000 masks to the Sunapee School District.

New London Rotary Club President Katie Blake, Vice President and Regional Retail Manager at New London’s Ledyard National Bank presented the masks to Winfried Feneberg, Superintendent of the Kearsarge Regional School District. Super-intendent Feneberg is also a member of the New London Rotary Club.

The initiative is part of the Million Mask Challenge, funded by the Rossi Fam-ily Foundation of Cromwell, CT, and many other New England businesses and corpo-rations. The drive is designed to distrib-ute masks to first responders, non-profit organizations, and at risk populations in New England.

The Rotary Club’s intention in provid-

ing masks for the Kearsarge and Sunapee School Districts is for the Districts’ health managers to distribute them to families of students who may be economically inse-

cure and hopefully, close the gap between the students having issued masks and parents not being able to purchase masks for the rest of the family.

Kearsarge School District Facilities Director Todd Fleury, Superintendent Winfried Feneberg, New London Rotary Club President Katie Blake, and Dave Saturley, Assistant District Governor, Rotary International District 7870.

Roadside Cleanups were recently held by the Henniker Lions (l) and Rotary (r) Clubs.

Kearsarge to Full Remote at ThanksgivingSuperintendent Winfried Feneberg has announced that the Ke-

arsarge Regional School Board will shift all students in the district into At Home: Remote Learning for a two week period after the Thanksgiving Recess. This shift was made to address the potential impact of student, family, and staff related travel into and outside of the New England States, a known high risk activity that requires potential quarantining. As such, all students participating in At School: Remote Learning will transition to At Home: Remote Learning from November 30, 2020 until December 13, 2020. Students who were previously participating in At School: Remote Learning prior to the transition will return to the school setting on December 14 to resume classes in the school environment. Specific details regarding the expectations for transition to At Home: Remote Learning for individual students and their classes will be provided by teachers and building administration. Stu-dents receiving special education services will receive additional communications from the Director of Student Services specific to individual education plans and continuing service provision dur-ing this transitional period.

Secretary of State’s Office critical of Peterborough’s treatment of Town ClerkAnother controversy has erupted in

Peterborough after it was discovered that a letter from Deputy Secretary of State Dave Scanlan, critical of the town’s treat-ment of Town Clerk Linda Guyette, was taken down. Scanlan’s letter accused the town of usurping Guyette’s legal author-ity to handle absentee ballots.

Controversy has surrounded the town clerk’s office since June when Deputy Town Clerk Gayle Bohl filed a complaint about Guyette’s treatment of her. Town Administrator Rodney Bartlett sent Guyette an email accusing her of creating a hostile work environment, and then hired the Leddy Group to conduct an investigation.

The Leddy Group concluded that Guyette regularly used profanity in front of staff and residents and was known to have a temper, and that town hall em-ployees describe her behavior as unset-tling and unprofessional.

Guyette disputes the report, and the accusation that she exposed people in Town Hall to COVID-19 after she tested positive.

Scanlan investigated and found Bohl

was working in the basement processing the absentee ballots, and Guyette was barred from being around Bohl. Scanlan said this was a “usurpation” of Guyette’s legal authority to oversee ballots and elections in town. He praised Guyette’s

work running elections for the town in past elections and characterized the issues between Bohl and Guyette as inter-office conflict. He then suggested that the town get Guyette more help for the November election.

Over 200 bikers join “The Ride For Tower”A motorcycle ride paid tribute Sunday to Steve Tower, the

Goffstown Fire Department captain who died after a medical emergency during a physical agility test. Tower, 54, had retired after 30 years with the department, but came back as interim fire chief in 2019, and then decided to rejoin the department as a training captain. He was taking a test at the state fire academy in Concord when he collapsed on Aug. 31. More than 200 motor-cyclists gathered Sunday for “The Ride For Tower” to honor the Goffstown resident and raise funds for the Firefighter Relief Fund. The 30-mile ride started at Bass Pro Shops in Hooksett, where Tower worked part-time at the archery counter. The motorcy-clists drove past the Church Street fire station in Goffstown where Tower worked for many years. The event ended at the Weare Fish and Game Club.

Plans to renovate New London’s Buker Building placed on holdArchitect Dennis Mires and Building

& Facilities Committee Chair Bob Bowers briefed the New London Select Board on their studies of the possibility of renovat-ing the Buker Building for the exclusive use of the Police Department.

Both reported that the building contained adequate square footage to accommodate the major needs of the department, although several “wants” such as a break room, a sally port, additional parking and outside storage could not be included. Bowers said that his commit-tee was eager to support the $3.3 million warrant article provided Police Chief Emily Cobb concurred. And there was the rub.

The Chief, in her remarks, expressed doubts as to the viability of the project. She said that she and her officers were not comfortable with the proposed design without knowing if this was a 5-10 or 20 year solution. Cobb stressed that the project was not fiscally responsible in light of the items left unaddressed.

Town Administrator Kim Hallquist echoed those concerns, saying it was not “a long-term solution,” and urged the Board to reach out to gauge public support for

this or an alternate Police Station.Former selectman Bill Helm agreed,

citing an overdue Master Plan and re-minded the Board that Hallquist had made the same recommendation two years ago.

In the end, the Board agreed with another former selectman, Peter Bianchi, who urged tabling this project, but imme-diately addressing the safety problems in

both the Buker and the academy building such as installing bullet proof glass, and the sprinkler system. Bowers and Chief Cobb agreed to refined estimates for those projects.

The tone of the meeting was summed up by Board member Nancy Rollins, who said. “I’m tired of nothing happening in this town."

Newbury and New London First Responders assist a lost hiker.

Lost Newbury and Greenfield hikers rescuedOn Columbus Day, Newbury Fire Rescue and New London

Ambulance crews responded to a reported injured hiker on the Newbury trail on Mount Sunapee. Responders hiked the trail and located the individual about a mile up the trail. The hiker had a minor injury and the rescue crew was able to assist him walking down the trail to the waiting ambulance. Although the call for the injured hiker was received shortly after 4:00pm, the rescuers were not off the mountain with the hiker until close to 7:00 and darkness was setting in. This was the second call to the mountain this weekend for Newbury Fire Rescue. In a similar incident, Greenfield Fire and Police were able to assist a hiker lost off Ted’s Trail last Tuesday evening. The hiker, a Pennsylva-nia man in his 30’s called 911 about 7:00pm saying he was lost. Using cell phones, dispatch was able to narrow the search. Even so, it took several hours to locate him. Eventually, he was able to walk out under his own power.

Q: I have a mortgage for land that I intend to build a home on. Can I take the home mortgage interest deduction?

A: No, you can’t deduct interest on land that you keep and intend to build a home on. However, some interest may be deductible once construction begins. You can treat a home under construction as a qualified home for a period of up to 24 months,

but only if it becomes your qualified home at the time it’s ready for occupancy. The 24-month period can start any time on or after the day construction begins. As a qualified home, the interest paid may qualify as deductible mortgage interest, with certain limitations.

Q: Is interest on a home equity line of credit deductible as a second mortgage?

A: It depends. Interest paid on home equity loans and lines of credit is only deductible when you use the proceeds to buy, build or sub-stantially improve your home that secures the loan.

For example, interest on a home equity loan used to build an addi-tion to an existing home is typically deductible, while interest on the same loan used to pay personal living expenses, such as credit card debts, is not. The loan must be secured by the taxpayer’s main home or second home (known as a qualified residence), not exceed the cost of the home and meet other requirements.

Last week, we sent out invitations to local Republi-cans and Democrats alike to come together to denounce the Politics of Hate. As you can tell from the above photo, we were disappointed that Marjorie Porter, Suzanne White, or any of the dozen or so democrats who were waiving their candidates signs across from McDonalds the last two Satur-days couldn’t be bothered to join the effort to restore civility to American politics. The Politics of Hate has permeated all levels of our government and society. We are all familiar with the vile rhetoric and attacks at the federal and state level, but few realize the more local effects.

Recently State Representative Marjorie Porter, reacting to the number of Repub-lican political signs at local businesses, posted a Facebook suggestion (which she later took down) suggesting that those

businesses be boycotted because of their political beliefs.

How vile, how harmful, how un-American can you get.

Last week I sent a personal invitation to Rep. Porter to attend the Unite America Rally. She not only declined, but accused me of

being part of those who defaced her signs, saying “You may not know who is doing this, but the people doing this certainly know you. The fact that none of you have spoken out implies acceptance.”

Not spoken out?? - what the H*** does she think that rally was all about?

Area Democrats should be particu-larly embarrassed to have such a hateful, vindictive person representing them. It’s past time to end the Politics of Hate and perhaps the first act would be to boycott Ms. Porter at the polls.

Publisher's Perspective

Actions Have Consequences - Inaction Does Too

Dear Editor:A recent letter to the editor in the Mes-

senger implied that I didn’t take my job as your Representative in Hillsborough Dis-trict 1 seriously. Nothing could be further from the truth. This year, I missed two voting sessions that were at the height of the Covid epidemic. The first one, I arrived at representative hall for the session, and

the Democrats were caucusing in the hall. Someone informed me that a Democratic representative was inside passing out cookies and telling everyone that she just returned from a wonderful vacation in Italy where the virus was rampant at the time. Now you must understand that the Demo-crats had a 60 vote advantage, and could and did pass every bill they wanted,

and defeat any bill that wasn’t theirs. So, I had to make a decision. I am 78 years old and pre-diabetic, should I risk my life to sit in a room with 400 people with poor ventilation and risk catching the Covid virus just to listen to Democrats pontificate about the wondrous nature of all their bills or go home and be safe. Well my mother didn’t raise any dummies named Jim. I went home. By the way, after that day, the democratic representative that had just come home from Italy agreed to a 14 day quarantine. The second session was soon after, and the democrats put all the remaining bills into groups of omnibus bills and called for voting on all of them in one session. That session lasted until early the next morn-ing, and the Democrats passed all the bills. Surprise surprise. I attended the following sessions at UNH where my votes did mat-ter to sustain all the Governors vetoes. I have always taken this job seriously, and did my best to represent my district to the best of my abilities. I attended my committee meetings, and worked with Democrats on our committee to arrive at compromise posi-tions that were good for my district and good for N.H.Jim Fedolfi, State Representative, Hillsborough District 1*************************************************************Dear Editor:

After knocking on more than 1000 doors in District 38 and talking to hundreds of voters, several things have become appar-ent. Many voters are proud New Hampshire residents who are afraid that the values and culture they cherish are in jeopardy. They are astounded that the New Hampshire Advantage they have come to enjoy is threatened on many fronts. The people I have been talking to want a state government that looks out for their interests and maintains the great New Hampshire Advan-tage they have come to enjoy in the Granite State. I can relate to their experience as my wife and I moved to Antrim five years ago because of the New Hampshire Advantage. The conversation gets very sober when we begin to discuss the very real threats to their way of life. Some of the bills approved by the Democratic Legislature but vetoed by the Governor would create a completely different culture in the Granite State. Just a sample of the 70 plus Democrat sponsored bills the governor vetoed are summed below: A State income tax based on a requirement for business to tax employee’s paychecks to pay for family leave. (House Bill 712 and Senate Bill 1)

An increase of 15% to small business income. (House Bill 623) A bill permitting state bureaucrats to raise hidden taxes on elec-tricity without legislative oversight and approval. (HB166) A “Red Flag” law that would allow firearms to be confiscated without due process or redress. (House Bill 687) A law which would allow people who are not residents of New Hampshire to register to vote in New Hampshire. (House Bill 105 and 106 and Senate Bill 67)

A modification to drivers licensing laws that would allow ille-gal aliens to obtain a driver’s license. (House Bill 397) An increase in the minimum wage from $7.25/hour to $15/hour. (House Bill 186 and Senate Bill 10)

A bill that would establish a 4.3% tax on the retail sale of elec-tronic devices. (House Bill 1492). If elected, I will go to Concord and fight to maintain the New Hampshire Advantage. I will be dedicated to balancing the budget without raising new taxes. I

Being there to cast a vote on behalf of your Constitutional rights for hard-working taxpayers, seniors, or veterans, you can count on me. My attendance record in both years speaks for itself. My ratings and endorsements from NRA, Americans for Prosperity, Granite State Taxpayers, NH Business & Industry, and Cornerstone tomention a few can show you how hard-working and dedicated I am, not only to New Hampshire, butmore importantly to the constituents of Merrimack 25. If you want NH to have a balanced budget with no tax increases, I will be that vote. If you want arepresentative who has your back to protect your 2nd Amendment rights, fight for school choice options, vote to protect our Electoral college and voter integrity, I ask for your Vote on November 3rd.
