Warners Tory Hill Authors
Series continues its fifth season
with NPRs Only A Game, Bill
Littlefield on August 9, 2014 at
the Warner Town Hall. Bill
Littlefield has been the host of
the syndicated National Public
Radio sports shows Only a
Game since 1993. Its only a
game, the program tells us, try-
ing to keep sports in perspec-
tive. And for all the deadly seri-
ous perspectives of sports com-
mentators and fans, Littlefields
is perhaps the most realistic.
It is certainly the most enter-
taining. Sometimes funny,
sometimes poignant,
Littlefields take on the games
people play is as refreshing as it
is enlightening. A graduate of
Yale University and the
Harvard Graduate School of
Education, Bill continues to
teach one course each semester
at Curry College, Milton, MA
where he also serves as writer-
in-residence.
This evening is the third of four
presented by the Warner
Historical Society.
Then with Author, Mike
Dickerman on August 23, 2014
at the Warner Town Hall.
Dickerman is a longtime north-
ern New Hampshire resident
who was lured to the White
Mountains region by its many
foot trails and magnificent sum-
mits and lush valleys. After
more than a decade of reporting
on area events for the Littleton
Courier newspaper, he started
his own publishing company
(Bondcliff Books) in 1996 and
regularly writes, publishes and
distributes books related to
New Hampshires North
Country and White Mountains.
For more than 27 years, his
popular hiking column, The
Beaten Path, has appeared reg-
ularly in newspapers across the
Granite State.
He has authored or edited
numerous books. He will be
speaking about his newest
book, White Mountains Hiking
History and Stories from the
White Mountains, both pub-
lished in 2013 by The History
Press.
This evening is the last of the
series presented by t
he Warner Historical Society.
The readings begin at 7:00 p.m.
and are held in the Warner
Town Hall.
A dessert social and book sign-
ing are accompanied by the
sounds of live jazz following
the readings.
Single tickets are ten dollars or
a packet of four for thirty-two
dollars may be purchased at the
door or on-line at www.tory-

A Boost for City Year New
Hampshire
Back by popular demand, the
2nd Annual White Mountain
Gran Fondo presented by Bank
of New Hampshire will be chal-
lenging nearly 800 cyclists in
the ride of their lives on
Saturday, August 23. Cyclists
will test their strength and
endurance through 100 miles of
some of the toughest climbs and
most brilliant scenery that New
Hampshires White Mountains
have to offer. Cyclists can still
register by visiting www.white-
mountaingranfondo.com.
This Big Ride for a Big
Purpose benefits City Year
New Hampshires work to help
struggling students stay in
school and get back on track
toward high school graduation.
In Manchester, City Years
diverse corps of 50 young peo-
ple serve in six of the citys ele-
mentary schools.
City Year New Hampshires
Executive Director Pawn
Nitichan explains, With one in
four Manchester children cur-
rently living in poverty and one
in seven dropping out of high
school, thousands more stu-
dents at the middle and high
school level are in need of sim-
ilar assistance. The White
Mountain Gran Fondo is criti-
cal in helping City Year raise
the funds to expand and help
meet the needs of all students.
Gran Fondos are long distance,
mass-participation cycling
events that have been extremely
popular in Europe and
increasing in popularity in the
U.S. The WMGF will include
three ride options: a 100 mile
Gran Fondo starting at Loon
Mountain, a 50 mile Medio
Fondo starting at Bretton
Woods Ski Resort, and a 25
mile Piccolo Fondo starting in
Franconia, NH. Each ride will
challenge cyclists with daring
terrain and breathtaking
scenery.
Last year, the event attracted
nearly 400 athletes, 21 spon-
sors, 112 volunteers and hun-
dreds of spectators to the White
Mountains and raised $78,000
in support of City Years work.
The event received overwhelm-
ingly positive feedback from
riders and sponsors alike.
One participant remarked,
Over the last five years I've
participated in about a dozen
organized bike rides annually.
This was the best organized and
most scenic ride I've ever been
on.
Tony Ilacqua, Branch Manager
for Bank of New Hampshire in
Lincoln said, Last year,
numerous people went out of
their way to thank me and my
company for supporting such a
wonderful cause. I have always
been proud to represent my
company, but never as much as
on that day. What a great event
and more importantly what a
great Partnership that Bank of
New Hampshire is proud to be a
part of.
Paul McCormack, Irish
Olympic cyclist and the official
Event Technician said, City
Year members bring an amaz-
ing level of spirit and organiza-
tion that make the White
Mountain Gran Fondo an
incredible success one of the
best events Ive been to in
recent years.
Loon Mountain Resort will host
all of the action at the events
start and finish line.
Participants will be treated to
joyful welcomes from City Year
New Hampshire staff and vol-
unteers as they arrive. The 100-
mile ride will launch at 8am.
The riders will turn right out of
Loon Mountain to make the
long, steady climb up the
Kancamagus Highway and on
to Bear Notch and Crawford
Notch. The beautiful day of rid-
ing will conclude with a trek up
Kinsman Notch with volunteers
wildly cheering at the top.
Then, it is all downhill to the
finish. The course will be teem-
ing with energetic City Year
staff and corps members who
will cheer, direct and assist rid-
ers the whole way.
Were so pleased to host City
Years big event. Were grateful
to the organization, volunteers,
sponsors, riders, and their fami-
ly and friends for heading to the
Lincoln area and allowing us to
be a part of their success, said
Andrew Noyes, Sales Director
at Loon.
City Year New Hampshire is
partnering with the Bank of
New Hampshire and several
other local businesses to make
this event possible, including
Loon Mountain, Bretton
Woods, Papa Wheelies,
Pedros, The Mountain Club at
Loon, Baker Newman Noyes,
the McLane Law Firm and 13
other sponsors and partners.

Of Paige Computer Services
Tech Tips, Talk & Advice For Your Computer
You see them in hotels and air-
ports; you may have used one in
a library or copy center or inter-
net caf. I am talking about
public computers. There are
some precautions you must take
when using these computers,
these are;
Watch for over the shoulder
snoops, when using a public
computer be aware of your sur-
roundings there may be some-
one watching you as you type
and the web site that you are on.
Do not enter sensitive infor-
mation, such as name or social
security numbers, keep in mind
someone may have installed
key logging software or a don-
gle attached to the keyboard
that would log all your informa-
tion as you type. Chat programs
such as yahoo may be logging
your conversation so any per-
sonal information you chat
about may be saved on the com-
puter for someone to read later.
Do not save any login infor-
mation, when you log on to a
web site and it ask you for a
password a window may pop up
asking you do you want to save
this information, say NO! If
you say yes your password
would be saved on the comput-
er for easy retrieval later. Many
programs such as instant mes-
sengers give you the option for
auto logon; make sure that box
is unchecked.
Do not use removable media,
such as a thumb drive or floppy
disk on the computer. The pub-
lic computer may be infected
with a Trojan or virus. After
using that media on a public
computer and you put it in your
personal computer you will
infect your computer, a Trojan
may be installed where the
hacker can get all your personal
information by logging into
your home computer.
There are some one line tools
you can run on a public com-
puter which will make your
computer experience easier,
they are;
Google Docs it includes a
word processor, spreadsheet
program and presentation tool.
It is not as good as word or
excel but it is free to use and
your information is not kept on
the computer, you need to cre-
ate an account with Google and
save your file on the web so you
can access your document from
any computer.
Flickr is an online photo shar-
ing tool if you want to view
family photos or share pictures
with friends and you do not
want to download picture to the
computer this is a great alterna-
tive. All you do is create an
account where your family will
be able to upload and share the
pictures, you can view them on
any public computer.
Gmail or Yahoo Mail is a free
online mail account, if you trav-
el allot and you need the flexi-
bility to check your e-mail from
any computer these are the tools
for you, now with Yahoo you
can have unlimited e-mail stor-
age, Gmail offers 5 gigabytes of
e-mail storage depending on
how many e-mails you receive
this may be plenty of storage
space. They also have a address
book to store your contacts,
along with calendars to keep
track of your appointments.
You may in some cases synch
your cell phone with Yahoo cal-
endar so all your appointments
are current on your phone and
on Yahoo.
Use USB Flash Drive, there
are programs that will run on a
thumb drive, these can be
Mozilla Firefox web browser or
Thunderbird e-mail client.
There are many free programs
that will work independent of
your home computer that you
can install on a thumb drive,
plug it into a computer and still
use that programs like your sit-
ting in front of your home com-
puter, you can find these
portable applications on the
internet a great site for them is
www.portableapps.com.
Well I hope this information is
helpful, again any question
please e-mail me at
paigecs@gmail.com or call
603-747-2201 also visit my
website www.paigecomput-
erservices.com, So until next
time Happy Computing!

Keeping Each Other Well
by Elizabeth Terp
Cosauke...
Adventures in
Homesteading
Beth
Weick
The Corner Stack
As I stepped into our shed this
morning to gather tools for the
day, I noticed the latest config-
uration. In searching for some-
thing the day before, Ryan had
shuffled the stacks of totes and
tools. Where previously had sat
a wooden bowl of bolts and a
few seashells atop our stuffed-
to-bursting toolbox, stood a
new arrangement. It caught my
eye: two cast iron pans, in need
of a sandblasting, topped by
Ryans bright orange hard hat.
Mundane, and symptomatic of
nothing more than a slightly
disheveled storage shed with a
few too many items in a tad too
small space. And yet, some-
thing about it stuck with me.
The worn helmet, with knicks
and sawdust evidence of its use,
balanced on the thick and heavy
cast iron, extras that were set
aside until need called them
back into the kitchen. Both are
held atop the old, grey toolbox
by the corner boards of the
shed, pine slabs unceremoni-
ously nailed to the hand-peeled
pole frame of fir and spruce.
Glancing twice as I gather my
garden fork and pruning lop-
pers, I try to identify what this
accidental corner stack evokes.
Strength, sweat, labor; the
smell of a hot chain on wood,
sawdust. Comfort, satiation,
the heat of a cookstove; fire,
fresh produce, a meal out of dirt
and care. Man and machine;
woman and sustenance.
Yes, that, and something more:
vigor, gumption, care, effort.
Somehow, I found all that in
one glance. Somehow, it seems
to sum up what were doing out
here. Wood and food, and the
creation of a home out of the
hills in which we live. Its
piecemeal and chaotic - as our
shed so easily suggests - but
also beautiful and powerful.
Our little clearing is filling with
flowers and edibles, gradually
turning from woods to a work-
ing homestead. We saw and
split our wood, though fresh
trees seem to out-pace us.
Rocks, endless as they may be,
are moved while compost
enriches the gardens; fruit trees
are encouraged and weeds
pulled. And at the end of each
day, we set down our tools and
sit about the tiny table to share
a meal. Our hands are cal-
loused and the dirt never quite
comes off, but a smile comes
easily to our eyes and our
hearts.
Garden work is my specialty!
Weeding, planting, mulching
and pruning services available,
plus edible landscapes and gar-
den designs. Contact Beth via

cury, pesticides, hormones, and
whatever else threatens rather
than supports robust health, we
sometimes need reminders to be
sure that we toss our food into a
clean mouth bowl after going to
all that trouble to check the
food out.
It may help to visualize how
perfectly arranged the mouth
bowl is to house a variety of
bacteria, not all of them friend-
ly. Bacteria love dark, moist
places and a steady diet of
sugar. Any pockets in the gums
surrounding our teeth are a
housing bonanza for bacteria,
depending on how welcome we
make them. Unchecked, bacte-
ria create gum disease, get into
the blood stream, and create
plaques in our arteries that lead
to heart disease.
While we deplore the amount of
sugar degenerating our diet, this
is not really a new phenome-
non. I was raised in the penny
candy days and there was a reg-
ular stash at the corner store in
my neighborhood. There was a
sugar bowl on every kitchen
table and plenty of home baked
cookies and bars. Cakes had an
inch of frosting on them and
fruit pies were common
desserts. However, carbonated
drinks were only had on special
occasions. They took up a
minor section of an aisle in the
grocery store, not the whole
aisle. Orange juice was only
had by squeezing oranges so it
was consumed in small glasses.
The problem with todays soda
is that it is sipped throughout
the day, along with snacks pro-
viding bacteria with a steady
diet of sugar and setting off just
as steady a stream of bacterial
plaque and tooth decay.
Hygienists patiently demon-
strate flossing technique and the
necessity of routing out the bac-
teria before they form plaques
and start eroding the enamel on
our teeth. It is not enough to
slide the floss up and down
between each tooth. We need to
wrap it around the base of every
side of every tooth to rout out
any bacteria in residence. If you
then rinse your mouth with
about a tablespoon of 3 percent
hydrogen peroxide-- brace
yourself-- you will immediately
see the spots you missed.
Food is meant to be digested
standing up. Anyone who regu-
larly takes a nap directly after a
meal is in for a foul awakening
as remnants of the meal shift
into reverse, travel back up the
esophagus, and start over again
in the mouth, definitely not as
tasty the second time around.
Step one is to remain in an
upright position for 3-4 hours
after eating to give the meal a
fair chance to enter the relay
race through the digestive tract,
at least to make it beyond the
second gate, the pyloric valve,
at the entrance to the small
intestine. Water we swish and
swallow between meals also
keeps nutrients moving easily
in the right direction.
So, on any visit to a dental
hygienist for a cleaning, listen
up for a longer, healthier life.
PS: The most effective tooth-
paste I know is a tsp. of baking
soda with a squirt of lemon
juice. Watch it foam and load
up your brush!

"Inspiring Healthy Choices For Life"
Dear EarthTalk: With summer
officially here now, what can
you tell us about which sun-
screens are safe and which are
not?
-- Clara Rosen, New York, NY
Skin cancer is by far the most
common form of cancer in the
United States, with more new
cases each year than breast,
prostate, lung and colon cancers
combined. And the rate of
newly diagnosed cases of the
most deadly skin cancer,
melanoma, has tripled over the
last three decades. But many of
the sunscreens on the market do
not provide enough protection
from the suns damaging rays.
Also, some of them contain
chemicals that can also cause
health problems in their own
right.
According to the non-profit
Environmental Working Group
(EWG), which assessed the
safety and effectiveness of
more than 1,400 SPF (sun
protection factor) products for
its 2014 Guide to Sunscreens,
only one in three sunscreens for
sale on the shelves of American
stores offer good skin protec-
tion and are free of ingredients
with links to health issues.
That means two-thirds of the
sunscreens in our analysis dont
work well enough or contain
ingredients that may be toxic,
reports the group.
A big part of the problem is the
lack of tougher rules from the
U.S. Food & Drug
Administration (FDA). The
FDAs first major set of sun-
screen regulations, 36 years in
the making, took effect in
December 2012 and proved far
too weak to transform the mar-
ket, reports EWG. While the
new rules did restrict some of
the most egregious claims on
sunscreen labels (such as the
patently false waterproof
and sweatproof claims) and
ended the sale of powder sun-
screens and towelettes that were
too thin to provide protection
against ultraviolet rays, they
didnt address inhalation threats
from spray sunscreens or take
into account the risks of expo-
sure to so-called nanoparti-
cles from zinc oxide and titani-
um dioxide varieties.
While the FDA is currently
reassessing its stance on sun-
screens, EWG warns it may be
a while before new rules
address these and other con-
cerns, especially given push-
back from regulatory-averse
members of Congress and some
manufacturers. So whats a
health-conscious sun worship-
per to do about sunscreen?
For starters, read labels. Some
common sunscreen ingredients
to watch out for and avoid
include: oxybenzone, which
can cause allergic reactions and
hormone-like effects; Vitamin
A (AKA retinyl palmitate), a
skin irritant and possible car-
cinogen; and fragrances which
can contain allergens and chem-
icals. Also, spray sunscreens are
suspect because inhaling some
of the ingredients can irritate
breathing passages and even
potentially compromise lung
function. And EWG warns to
avoid products with SPF ratings
higher than 50, as their use can
tempt people to apply too little
and/or stay in the sun too long.
Sticking with products in the
15-50 SPF range and reapply-
ing often makes much more
sense.
Some of the best choices are
those sunscreens that employ
either zinc oxide or avoben-
zone, both which have been
shown to block the most dam-
aging ultraviolet rays effective-
ly without the need for other
potentially troublesome addi-
tives. Some of the leading
brands that meet EWGs criteria
for both safety and effective-
ness include Absolutely
Natural, Aubrey Organics,
California Baby, Elemental
Herbs, Goddess Garden,
Tropical Sands and True
Natural, among others. Find
these and other winners on the
shelves of natural foods retail-
ers as well as online. For a com-
plete list of all 172 recommend-
ed sunscreens and to learn more
about the risks, check out
EWGs free online 2014 Guide
to Sunscreens.
