Permitting Process
Soon to be Online
by S. Aaron Shamshoyan
New software to streamline the towns permitting process
means residents will soon be able to save a trip to town
hall and apply online.
Salem Selectmen unanimously voted Monday night to
begin using ViewPoint Government Solutions ViewPermit
to allow applicants to apply online and forgo an in-person
application.
It should provide a great benet to the public and the
staff, said Assistant Town Manager Leon Goodwin.
The software also features a tablet-based interface
inspectors can utilize in the eld, allowing for
instantaneous updates on a permits status, and a
centralized data point.
Goodwin said Andover, Mass., currently uses the
software and invited him down for a tour where it helped
boost the inspections department. About 70 percent of
applicants apply online, he said.
Im so happy I cant even tell you, Selectman Everett
McBride said about the software.
Salem will be the rst New Hampshire municipality to
use ViewPoint, and the company will need to build the
program with state and local codes.
Carl Anderson, senior municipal relationship manager
from ViewPoint, said the database will be customized with
town codes, and existing data will be integrated.
Anderson provided a demonstration of the user interface
from both the resident perspective and the inspector.
Goodwin said two nalists were chosen after multiple
products were evaluated, and ultimately ViewPoint was
selected. He said the other alternative charged 4 percent of
permitting fees which was detractive.
But funding allocations will need to be created to cover
the costs of the new software, as it was not budgeted for in
2014.
Town Manager Keith Hickey said a one-time set up fee
of $24,500 could be covered with funds remaining from a
server room project. Three to four months of service fees
could also be covered from the fund along with money
remaining from other projects.
Hickey added that $3,000 remained from monies
allocated to replace and upgrade existing town computers.
Selectman Stephen Campbell raised concerns over a
convenience fee charged to customers seeking to pay
online. He said a 3 percent convenience fee on a million
dollar permit could substantially increase the cost.
Goodwin responded saying the program offered a pay-
in-person option, allowing users to avoid the fee.
Anderson added a project requiring a substantial permit
as mentioned would likely need to be done in person with
the building department. He suggested the software would
address a majority of basic applications. I think theres a
real benet to the town, he said.
Anderson said ViewPoint would begin creating the
program based on state and local codes and begin to
provide training for employees. He said the program could
go live once testing and training were complete.
Campbell suggested setting a date for the software to be
implemented citing the current program took almost four
years to get started.
Goodwin hopes to have ViewPoint available for
permitting later this year.
Salem Building Plans on Broadway
by Bob Gibbs
Among the currently ongoing community business projects in the
works in Salem are the Cumberland Farms at 382 S. Broadway and
the site of the former Service Credit Union on 159 North Broadway.
Plans for the razing and rebuilding of a remodeled Cumberland
Farms were approved by the Salem Planning Board at last weeks
meeting.
The remodeling will be a smaller 4,500-square-foot building and
12 gasoline pumps. The new building will only house Cumberland
Farms. At this time, Ralphies Cafe Italiano is the only other business
in this building. Ralphies is attempting to nd a new home in Salem.
Ross Muldoff, the planning director for the Town of Salem, says
the new property will be much more environmentally friendly.
The curbing around the entire property will be placed to funnel
all rainwater to a ltration pond that will be located behind the
building. This pond will have aquatic plants that will lter and
clean the runoff before it gets into the soil.
The property will also have small trees and shrubs to enhance
the look of the property. Outside the building will be shaded
tables making this a great place to stop for anyone traveling along
the rail trail that runs behind the property.
Mr. Muldoff stated that the lights above the gas pumps will be
recessed and of a lower intensity, making these lights less of a
distraction to neighbors and travelers
along Route 28.
The former Service Credit Union
site at 159 North Broadway has been
approved by the planning board to be
built as an 8,000-square-foot urgent
care and medical ofce building.
Parking will accommodate vehicles
including handicap spaces. A variance
was approved allowing the building
to be set back 10 feet from the front
property line where 30 feet is the usual
requirement.
A tenant for this property has not
been announced.

going on in Salem go to the towns

Town Manager Honors Senior Corps Volunteers
submitted by Addie Tarbell,
Program Coordinator, Friends RSVP
Salem Town Manager Keith Hickey met with
a small contingent of Friends RSVP volunteers
at the Ingram Senior Center to recognize the
contributions of RSVP volunteers and other
national service programs.
RSVP is a Senior Corps program that recruits
and mobilizes volunteers to meet signicant
unmet needs. Volunteers work throughout
the year to get tasks done that wouldnt be
accomplished otherwise.
RSVP volunteers serve children, families and
older adults by providing free Bone Builders
senior exercise classes and doing necessary
work at locations like adult daycare facilities,
schools, senior nutrition sites, healthcare
facilities, state and municipal human services
agencies, libraries, cultural venues, hospitals,
food banks, soup kitchens, nursing facilities,
disaster preparedness organizations, thrift stores,
transportation programs and many others.
In the last 12 months, 78 RSVP volunteers
provided 6,100 hours of service to an estimated
1,880 Salem residents.
In total, 662 Friends RSVP volunteers worked
72,041 hours doing critical community work last
year, which saved towns, counties and the state signicant funds.
Hickey showed his gratitude for RSVP, and other volunteers
contributing to Salem causes, as part of the nationwide celebration
of service. The volunteers in our community are essential to the
success of the communitys mission, said Hickey.
Other Senior Corps programs (under the Corporation for
National and Community Service) that have been active in New
Hampshire for almost 50 years are as follows:
The Foster Grandparent Program, which engages members to
tutor and mentor children in 90 New Hampshire
schools and other youth service organizations,
providing about 3,500 children with more than
140,000 hours of targeted interventions every year.
The Foster Grandparent Program will celebrate its 50th anniversary
in 2015.
The Senior Companion Program provides transportation, non-
medical assistance and companionship to elderly and disabled
individuals to enable them to remain living in their own homes.
The Senior Companion Program is celebrating its 40th anniversary
this year.
The Friends Program is a non-prot human services agency,
based in Concord, N.H., that has served New Hampshire residents
since 1975. It operates an emergency housing shelter for families
and a youth mentoring program as well as engages volunteers of
all ages in community service to meet critical unmet needs. The
agency is the statewide sponsor of the Foster Grandparent Program
and one of six RSVPs in New Hampshire; www.friendsprogram.

A plan to deliver 1,200 megawatts of electricity to New England
was explained to Rotarians last week, and the company hopes to
soon move forward with the project.
Scott Spradling of the Northern Pass spoke on the project, which
seeks to install a 187-mile transmission line through northern New
Hampshire, increasing available electricity to the grid.
Spradling said 1,200 megawatts is the equivalent of the Seabrook
Nuclear Power Plant, which delivers electricity to about 1 million
homes.
The project is facing opposition, and has caused Northeast
Utilities, the parent company of Northern Pass, to reengineer a plan
for transmission lines.
North country residents argue power lines will decrease tourism
and ruin the states scenery.
Spradling said the original plan involved up to 150-foot
transmission line towers to be run down existing right-of-ways
through the state, and caused an outcry from residents.
A second plan has been proposed, including burying 7.5 miles
of the line in Pittsburg and Colebrook along with lower towers, and
Spradling said agreements are already in place with property owners.
But federal and state approvals are needed before the project can
move forward, he said.
Communities in northern and central New Hampshire are not
happy about the project.
Information from Bury the Northern Pass, an independent website
advocating for the lines to be buried underground, said at least
four New Hampshire towns voted to increase funding for legal
representation to oppose the project in March.
The site also lists multiple projects of similar length with high
voltage transmission lines buried underground or underwater within
500 miles of Concord.
Spradling said burying the lines could triple the cost of the $1.4
billion project. He said the company is attempting to plan routes
where lines would be hidden behind natural barriers.
And the additional power is necessary, according to Spradling.
Some of these older plants are going to withdraw, he said about
aging power companies.
Spradling said between 5,000 and 8,000 megawatts of electricity
will be removed from the New England grid over the next few years
as plants go ofine. He said the Northern Pass project wouldnt
entirely cover the decit.
We dont have a lot of other options here in New Hampshire, he
said, explaining that much of the areas electricity comes from natural
gas plants, but there are no plans for expansion.
Spradling added the grid is currently being supplemented by
turbine engines powered by jet fuel, but said they were expensive to
operate.

Some Salem residents may be a little cozier in their homes
this year after attending the recent Button Up NH Salem
Edition, a free home energy workshop at the Boys & Girls
Club. Andrew Duncan, energy program instructor with Lakes
Region Community College, was on hand for this workshop
designed to help homeowners nd energy-efcient ways to
button up their homes and save money at the same time. Bob
Reals, efciency program analyst with Liberty Utilities, was
also there to lend a hand and go over the many energy-savings
opportunities available to New Hampshire residents.
Feeling a chill with this winter weather? Andrew went
over the details of an energy-efcient home from top to
bottom complete with show-and-tell items for the audience
such as different types of insulation, lighting, an infrared
meter for nding out where your home is leaking air and
more.
Bob Reals reviewed the home energy audit information
provided by Liberty Utilities along with other programs and
rebate options. For more information, visit
www.nhsaves.com.
The event was sponsored by
Nature Made Simple and the
Salem Boys & Girls Club with
refreshments provided by the
Salem NH Farmers Market.
Many thanks to Liberty
Utilities who donated $10 for
every Liberty Utilities customer
to the Salem Boys & Girls Club.
The workshop raised $200 for
the club. These workshops

An Open Letter of Gratitude to
the Community of Salem
On February 4, 2014, our world as we knew it came
crashing down as we lost our 15-year-old son, Salvatore;
more afectionately known as Sal. Sal was a freshman
at Salem High, a brother to Michael, Natalie and Sofa,
a much loved son to us, and as we have now come to
know over the past six weeks, an incredibly well liked
friend and student to all that knew him. As we began
our journey in coming to grips with our tragedy, we
also became aware of what an incredible community
we live in. A community that we are so proud we have
chosen to raise our family in. Among the responders
to our home was Detective Michael Geha. Detective
Geha went so above and beyond any job description
for our family. He worked tirelessly for answers and
comforted and supported us each step of the way. He
treated us with compassion and respect and continues
to just check in on us. Ofcer Michael Bolduc as well
as the many other members of the police and rescue
department that were at our home were all incredibly
professional, calming and respectful of our tragedy.
Tese people all took their jobs quite seriously while still
showing the utmost care and compassion to our family.
Truly showing that not only are they ofcials, they are
also human; they hurt when others hurt.
Te outpouring of support and kindness we have
received from the members of our community is just
truly awing. Students at Salem High organized a
candlelight vigil in Sals honor that had the Icenter
flled. Tis event was organized by Sals peers and
was held in a respectful manner that showed how
much these kids truly care about each other. Teachers,
administrators and counselors from Salem Christian
School, Barron, Woodbury and Salem High all
came to pay their respects, showing how much these
professionals truly care about their students. Te Salem
High Culinary Arts Department prepared food for our
family that was so very much appreciated.
As we walked into church the day of Sals funeral we
were overwhelmed by the number of people that came
to support us as we said goodbye to our son. We have
received so very many forms of sympathy; cards, letter,
fowers, food and phone calls from not only family and
friends, but also from countless others that we dont
know personally. Tose that just took a moment out of
their busy lives to show they cared. We are reminded
each day of how our son touched so many lives and
what a tremendous community we live in. Te largest
form of sympathy has been the amount of donations
made in Sals honor to the Salem Dollars for Scholars
Memorial Fund. Te fund has received in excess of
$4,000 and we hope to see it grow so that Sals memory
ofers assistance to college-bound Salem High graduates.
Although none of these gestures can ever take
the place of what we have lost, we would like the
community to know that each and every gesture is truly
appreciated and helps to ease our pain. We write to
thank each person that has touched our lives in some
way, big or small and to thank all that touched Sals
life as there are many of you out there. As we continue
to struggle to make sense of this we are comforted in
knowing what a great community we live in and that we
are surrounded by so many that truly care.

Questioning Scott Browns
Senate Run
Tere are three items that I remember from Scott
Browns failed Senate campaign against Elizabeth
Warren. Te frst one was constantly referring to his
opponent as Prof. Warren as if this was the ultimate
insult. Mr. Brown learned that academic achievement
and brilliance was not looked upon by his constituents
with the same disdain that he had for her. His anti-
intellectual beliefs will not resonate in New Hampshire
either. Te second item was his selection of the major
campaign issue facing his constituents in Massachusetts.
Do you remember what it was?
If you guessed Obamacare, assault rife background
checks, job creation, or energy independence you were
wrong. Te burning issue that his constituents had
to listen to for three months was whether Elizabeth
Warrens grandmother was part Cherokee Indian.
Massachusetts residents who desired and deserved a
discussion of the complex and serious issues facing them
were short changed by Mr. Brown. Clearly he does
not have the ability or will to address the serious issues
facing his home states. He will soon treat his new home
state (New Hampshire) with his vacuous how low can
you go campaign style.
Te third item was the his agreement with Elizabeth
Warren to refuse outside PAC money into the campaign
which he has so far refused to replicate with Sen. Jeanne
Shaheen in the coming race. Te carpet bombing
TV attacks fooding the state are being funded by the
Americans for Prosperity PAC currently spending
$30,000,000 nationwide in a blatant attempt to buy
the U.S. Senate. Te corrupting infuence of special
interest money has changed national politics in the
country and has been made possible by the Republican
Supreme Court which has extended Constitutional First
Amendment rights to corporations or as Mitt Romney
would say, Corporations are people too! Apparently
Scott Brown has embraced the new politics.
I certainly hope that he keeps his famous brown
pickup truck in good repair and has a full tank of gas so
that he can pack up easily and drive to his next home
state wherever that may be. Senator Jeanne Shaheen
has no need for such a pickup because she has only one
home state.

Pentucket Bank recently made a donation to Salemhaven for the purchase of a van. The van is used
to shuttle people to various locations like restaurants, Canobie Lake Park, shopping, beach, voting, etc.
Without the vehicle, the elderly would not be able to venture out, and their quality of life would be
adversely affected.

Meet Clara Barton, Angel of the
Battleeld. The Salem Historical Society
will present The Angel of the Battleeld
by Jessa Piaia. Character actress Praia
presents a rst-person interpretation of Clara
Barton (1821-1912) entitled Meet Clara Barton:
Angel of the Battleeld and Founder of the
American Red Cross. Throughout the Civil War,
her tireless efforts ranged from bringing supplies,
often using her own funds, to cooking food, and
assisting wounded soldiers on the battleground.
After the war, Miss Barton was the rst person
ever to assist the U.S. Government in initiating
ofcial record-keeping for the missing and dead
soldiers, and was instrumental in establishing the
national cemetery at Andersonville, GA, in 1866.
While visiting Geneva, Switzerland in the 1870s,
she was drawn into participating in relief efforts
under the auspices of the International Red Cross
during the Franco-Prussian War. This experience
prompted her to align the United States with
the International Red Cross in organizing
humanitarian aid in combat. In 1881, following a
decade-long effort, Clara Barton became the rst
president of the American Red Cross for the next
22 years. The program is appropriate for adults
and children ages 10 accompanied by parents.
The meeting is at 7 p.m. at the Old Town Hall
Museum, 310 Main St.,, Salem, is open to all free

submitted by Paula Faist MS, LSW
Editors note: As a licensed social worker, Paula Faist has worked
closely with seniors and their families over the years. Through her column,
she hopes to provide insight on how to handle day-to-day concerns and
stressful issues that frequently arise with aging family members. Its easy
to become overwhelmed. Paula hopes her advice will make everyones
lives a little easier. Just take a deep breath and take it one day at a time.
Send your questions to paula@areanewsgroup.com.
I have been extremely fortunate to have had the opportunity to work
with the senior population and their family members for most of my
professional life. I have worked as a social worker in the nursing home
eld, a hospital setting and now at Silverthorne Adult Day Center. I have
helped answer many pertinent questions over the years on senior issues.
After speaking with Len Lathrop, editor-in chief of the Salem Community
Patriot newspaper, I thought it would be a great honor to help his readers
by having a Q&A column on senior concerns. Hopefully this column
will help many of you as you face some senior issues with your spouse,
parent or loved one. So with no further ado here we go.
How do I talk to my dad about giving up his license?
As we all know, a license to drive is our key to getting out and about,
visiting family and friends, going shopping, getting to appointments and
maintaining ones independence.
When the time comes that someone thinks we cant drive, it can be
devastating. We sure dont want to lose this freedom. Needless to say,
some seniors are unable to drive safely. You may want to start with talking
to your dad about his health, his poor vision and how his reaction/reex
time may be a bit slower than it should be.
You want to reassure him that you will organize help to get him to his
appointments, meetings, etc. If he is unable to listen to your concern for
his safety, as well as the other drivers on the road, you may want to speak
to his doctor about your concern. Many doctors are willing to write a
prescription or note suggesting that due to illness or visual problems,
he should not be driving. You can bring this to the motor vehicle ofce
where they will have an ID only license issued for him. Depending on
your dad, you may want to remove all keys and hide (really well!) the
keys that you need to have handy.
If hiding keys does not work, you may want to put a club on the
steering wheel or take out spark plugs so that the car will not start up. Just
be forewarned that your dad may call AAA to come by to check out his
problem with the car. We are all brought up to be honest, but you may
have to tell some white blets. You may want to have a family member
remove the car from his sight. When he asks for it, you can say it was in
an auto accident and is now unable to be driven.
The fact is that most auto accidents in our country are due to teenage
drivers. However, with the inexperience of teenagers coupled with the
decreased reaction time for the seniors; having both on the road at the
same time can prove to be deadly. Losing the ability to drive is truly
difcult. Keeping a loved one alive is well worth the battle you may face.

Association, and Program Director, Silverthorne Adult Day Center.

Patricia Pat Conway, a Republican Senior Assistant Rockingham
County Attorney, has announced her candidacy for Rockingham County
Attorney.
I am a highly motivated, disciplined senior prosecutor with extensive
experience in prosecuting cases in both the district and superior courts
along with management responsibilities over attorneys and support staff,
Pat said.
Pat has served the citizens of Rockingham County for 15 years. She
has been a lead prosecutor since 2003. As lead prosecutor, Pat handles
some of the most challenging and complicated felony cases in the
county such as sale of a controlled drug with death resulting, home
invasions, burglaries and aggravated felonious sexual assaults.
She supervises attorneys and support staff, serves as liaison between
the Rockingham County Attorneys Ofce and 10 police departments
and conducts grand jury for the Seacoast area. Pat is responsible for

hiring, ring and ofce policy decisions. In 2013 my ofce prosecuted
2,147 cases. An increase of 490 cases over 2012, Pat said.

That is why it is imperative to have a strong County Attorney who

Pat Conway Runs for
Rockingham County Attorney
submitted by Salem Police Department
Salem Police responded to a call at about 9:46 pm on March 21
regarding erratic operation on Rockingham Park Blvd. The caller
reported a white Mercedes Benz had cut them off at least three times
and was reported to be all over the road. A short time later, Ofcer
Michael McCarthy located the vehicle stopped in the middle of Tiffany
Road, within the Salem Crossing Condominium complex.
As Ofcer McCarthy approached the vehicle, he discovered a lone
male occupant passed out in the front seat with his foot on the brake
and the vehicle in drive. After several unsuccessful attempts to wake
the male, Ofcer McCarthy was ultimately able to get him to respond.
As the male operator woke up and looked at Ofcer McCarthy, he
immediately ed at a high rate of speed. Ofcer McCarthy returned to
his vehicle and followed the male as he drove to the dead-end portion
of Tiffany Road. Realizing the road ended, the man then reversed
direction and drove back at Ofcer McCarthy striking several parked
vehicles in the process. At this time, several Salem Police back-up
patrol units were responding to the area.
The man was able to get around Ofcer McCarthy and continued
northbound through the complex. The second responding Salem
police ofcer attempted to block the narrow travel lane, and the driver
of the Mercedes drove off the road and over a snow embankment to
get around his cruiser. The man then drove directly at a third Salem
Police cruiser and struck it head-on. The operator of the Mercedes then
continued to accelerate and pushed the cruiser back an estimated 15
feet before becoming dislodged. The man then drove at another ofcer
whom had exited his cruiser believing the operator had stopped when
he hit the marked cruiser. The ofcer was not struck and was able to
get back into his cruiser to follow behind the Mercedes.
The driver attempted to leave the complex at the end of Tiffany
Road, where he struck yet another Salem police cruiser on the left front
corner. The driver of the Mercedes then backed up into a third Salem
cruiser as the man tried to ee from this collision. This time he was
not successful and the car was stopped. Ofcers were able to take him
into custody after a brief struggle. During the arrest a large plastic bag
of prescription Xanax pills was located stuffed in the suspects pants.
He was eventually identied as Luis Figueroa, 31, of Salem.
Figueroa was booked on the following charges: Driving While
Intoxicated, three counts of Reckless Conduct (felony), Second Degree
Assault, Possession of a Controlled Drug with Intent to Distribute
(felony), and Resisting Arrest or Detention. He is also being held on a
parole violation.
As a result of this incident, two Salem police ofcers suffered minor
injuries and were treated and released from the Parkland Medical
Center. Three Salem police cruisers suffered signicant damage. As a
precautionary measure, Figueroa was also treated and released from
the Parkland Medical Center. Figueroa refused the services of a bail
commissioner on the charges from this incident and was held on a
parole violation. He was scheduled for arraignment in the 10th Circuit
Court Salem on Monday, March 24.
The investigation continues at this time, and additional charges are
expected to be added.

Grade 3 School News:
Third Grade recently wrapped up
their Africa unit with a wonderful
drumming and dancing performance
lead and directed by Annegret and
Erma. Each third-grade class put so
much effort into preparing for the Africa
night and their hard work really paid
off. We hope families enjoyed the
show and browsing students Africa
projects in the third-grade hallway.
Third Grade has moved on to
learning about simple machines.
They will be creating booklets,
using technology, and creating their
own demonstrations of the various
simple machines to gain a better
understanding of how each makes work
easier.
As readers and writers, they are
currently learning about persuasive/
opinion writing. They are reading
many mentor texts that t this genre,
and have worked hard to draft their
own opinion pieces using bold thesis
statements and strong, supportive
reasons and/or evidence. Some
students are writing why Homework
Should be Banned, while others
are sharing their opinions as to why
Mrs. Teuber Should be Appreciated!
Students are putting great effort into
this writing unit. Everyone is looking
forward to bright, warm spring days!

Thumbs up to Sherry Kilgus-Kramer and all
the volunteers with Strengthen Our Schools,
the positive impact that you made on behalf of
Salems youth is immeasurable and will reach
well beyond the town of Salem for generations to
come. Im Salem Proud!
Thumbs down to whiny James Keller who
was passed over for the top job on the Board
of Selectmen. And because of that, he would
not vote when it came time to choose the new
chairman. And I just knew that he and Mike
Lyons would blame Stephen Campbell for
making life so miserable for TM Hickey that he
would cut and run to neighboring Massachusetts
where anything goes. I do not recall Stephen on
the Board of Selectmen when the many, many
previous town managers departed Salem. Keller
may have run numerous corporations - which I
question - but he does not know how to play nice
with others.
Thumbs down to Senator Jean Shaheen.
Under her watch and with her afnity for
everything Obama, Shaheen has overseen and
been party to a $17 trillion debt, unfunded
liability of $240 trillion, and over one quadrillion
of credit swap derivative debt: all in one
generation! Shaheens only concern is insuring
her plate at the table of the elite. She is a nothing
but a socialist helping to steal the fruits of
Americans labor. A global elitist who for the sake
of American preservation must be removed from
ofce.
Thumbs up/Thumbs down. How come Salem
town ofcials waited until after the election to
announce it may cost thousands of dollars to
clean up the contaminated water treatment plant?
Were they afraid that voters would not approve
all of the warrant articles and the high school
renovation program if they knew of this impeding
expenditure?
Thumbs up/Thumbs down. Does anyone
know how much money Salem schools receive
from the state lottery each year?
Thumbs up to the man in the black military
hat with a lot of pins who is out helping around
town with the Veterans and others. I think he
was a Marine but not sure. He seems to always
be involved in things around
the town of Salem and seems
pretty active! He is always
volunteering for something
good. I hope he reads this and
considers a run for an Ofce in
NH!
Thumbs down to the
builders sign at the intersection
of Canterbury St. and Main
St. The development has been
completed for years yet you
continue to leave your sign up.
Lets hope you have a permit for
it!
Thumbs down to the building owner at 392
South Broadway which is seeking to block the
renovation of Cumberland Farms because you
want them to pay for your dilapidated building.
Just knock it down and get over yourself and stop
wasting peoples time. Salem needs progress.
Thumbs down to the Budget Committee
king Dane Hoover. Clean up your act and let
someone else lead the board. The selectmens
representative is supposed to provide support
for the board not use up all your time with his
grandstanding. We know he is part of the club
which got you elected, but he left the board. You
need to get him off the oor and let the actual
committee to do their jobs!
Thumbs down to the person who keeps
tagging all the buildings around Salem New
Hampshire. Be a man, tell us where you live so
we can come and tag your house if you like your
name so much.
Thumbs up/Thumbs down. Hope Salem does
a better job of rebuilding Shannon Road than they
did on the Town Farm Road. Construction and
garbage trucks are constantly on both roads and
the Town Farm Road is in bad
shape and it was resurfaced
not too long ago. They need to
make sure the specications for
the rebuild of Shannon Road
addresses the heavy weights of
the construction and garbage
trucks.
Thumbs up/Thumbs down.
To Massachusetts carpetbagger
Scott Brown. Having no
real positions to challenge
Senator Jeanne Shaheens
stellar record with, the Brown
modus operandi will be a steady barrage of
more speeches and commercials claiming that
somehow middle-class champion Shaheen is our
enemy by voting for the Affordable Care Act. Tell
that to the six million Americans who now nally
have healthcare insurance thanks to her efforts,
and our military women who now enjoy the same
medical benets that we civilians do. And he had
little to say when asked about what will happen
to those six million people who can now nally
sleep at night if he gets his
wish and guts the program.
Thumbs up/Thumbs down.
Heres hoping that Salem
School Superintendent Michael
Delahanty keeps his promise
and nds the $199,850 for the
high schools new maintenance
garage in this years budget
and doesnt come back to the
taxpayer for funding.
Thumbs up to Town
Manager Keith Hickey for his
rebuttal to Stephen Campbell
regarding the Ambulance bill.
Thumbs up/Thumbs down.
Just wanted to let you know I
assisted in a roll over on Lake
St. just before Bluff St. in Salem
this morning at 5:20 a.m.
Want to give a big thumbs
down to the 5-6 vehicles that
passed this rolled over vehicle
that was in the creek. Those words were from the
poor girl who was involved in that accident. I
know that in todays society everyone is worried
about being sued for something or other, but come
on people ... this was a life here! The vehicle was
up to the windshield in water! You couldnt miss
it. I do also want to give 911, Salem Police Dept.
(Ofcer Decker?) and other rst responders on the
scene at that time, a thumbs up for their prompt
response time in this scary rollover. A big thumbs
up to the accident victim who kept her seatbelt
on and was able to remain calm. Thank God for
Shock!
Thumbs up/Thumbs down. Bought rst-oor
condo years ago - nothing but problems - water,
water, water. Then comes the smell of mildew/
mold. For years there have been problems with
water all over. Do not buy a condo (unless its
way above ground). Buy a duplex! Seriously, its
a hassle!
Thumbs down. I dont
like what Republicans did to
America from 2001 to 2009. I
also resent the fact they refuse
to help, when the recovery
that was a direct result of their
leadership. Disrespecting
our President while he is
trying to clean up their mess
is inexcusable. Today, they
continue to do nothing, and
look only to cause more
hardship to America. A
Republican congress that votes
no to any help government offers its people, is not
a vote getter. Why would the people vote against
themselves? Why cant we get a Republican
candidate thats for the people, and not bought
and paid for by folks like the Koke brothers?
Thumbs down. This is to the genius that
blames the Republicans that for everything except
the great biblical ood. Big thumbs down. I
assume youre referring to Bengazi, where the
regime in the State House and the White House
declined to help four Americans under attack,
and then lied about the reason for it being under
attack. Happened to look up the resources for
you. It was not a lack of resources, but a lack of
will. At least two could have been saved, and
maybe all four. But the regime led potential
rescuers to stand down. Wake up!

against Running With Scissors. In battle number 2,
Krissy & Drew faced off against Beast ee Boyz. In

And in battle number 4, The Blind Commissioner
opposed Juice Jiving Part III.
Between the round of musical competition the

by the legendary 80s British sensations Lady
Twinklestar, Thorn Bjorn and Brick Stonetooth. The
stars reminisced of their days on the road with the
great rock and roll stars of the past as well as their
most recent food consumptions.
After the very competitive rst rounds, the next
battles were Chloe & Troy versus Krissy & Drew,
followed by a battle between Run on Three and
The Blind Commissioner.
After the preliminary rounds, the crowd was
revved up for the nal battle between Chloe &
Troy and The Blind Commissioner. This battle
had the audience cheering for their favorites and
attempting to inuence the judges.
After the nal performance, everyone was left
exhausted but wanting more, all of the battlers
came on stage to hear the Rock sensations
announce the winner.

For six years Advanced Allergy Centers has
been helping people in Southern New England
live their lives without the symptoms of allergies
and sensitivities. AAC utilizes three of the
leading vibrational energy technologies to reset
the nervous system to no longer react to the
substances the person is reacting to. NIAID states
that Exposure to allergens at certain times when
the bodys defenses are lowered or weakened,
such as a viral infection or pregnancy, seems to
contribute to the development of allergies. Other
triggers are times when physical, chemical or
emotional trauma is present. The nervous system
will associate a particular substance with that
negative trauma. That substance is now seen as
a threat to the body. Our three systems allow us
to break that negative association so your body
does not respond with symptoms like headaches,
sinus congestion, hives, asthma, digestive issues,
heartburn and sneezing, itchy, watery eyes or skin
issues. Whether it is seasonal, animal, food, and
chemical sensitivities we can help using this non
invasive, no needles, no drugs and very effective
approach. AAC was the rst ofce in the entire
New England area, and remains the only ofce
to utilize all three technologies. Due to the non
invasive nature of this type of medicine, there
are no side effects to the body and a success
rate of 80%. The practitioners are highly skilled
and treat each patient like a family member. If
you are sick and tired of feeling sick and tired,
call us, we can help. 603-894-0656 www.

The 2013 season ended far too soon for the Salem High School
softball squad. State championship dreams were left unrealized
as the Blue Devils lost in the semi-nal round of the NHIAA
Division I Softball Championship Tournament to the top-seeded
Concord High School, 4-2, on June 5 at Southern New Hampshire
University.
Salem High, led by legendary Head Coach Harold Sachs,
nished the 2013 regular season with a stellar 14-4 record. As
soon as the nal out was recorded in the semi-nal contest,
however, the returning Salem players focused their thoughts on
next year, next season and their next opportunity to accomplish
their goal of winning a New Hampshire state title.
The Blue Devils quest for a championship will begin against the
Crusaders at Manchester Memorial High School on Wednesday,
April 16.
Leading Salem this season will be seniors Amanda Bickford and
Brittany Wallace. Both athletes had tremendous 2013 seasons
yet hope to surpass their performances this coming year. In
November, both Bickford and Wallace signed letters of intent to
play softball in college. Bickford will be attending and playing for
St. Anselms College in Manchester, while Wallace will compete
with the University of Hartford in Connecticut. Bickford and
Wallace would love to cap off their high school careers with a state
championship.

Changing the culture of an entire program is no easy task. Just
ask Salem High School Boys Lacrosse Head Coach Robert Ruppy
Hailey. Hailey, in his rst year at the helm of the Blue Devils squad,
hopes to turn the Salem Boys culture of mediocrity into one of victory.
Were denitely trying to change the culture. Historically, Salem
has had a tough go of it in Division I, so our goals are to become a
more competitive team and close the gap on some of the scores we
have seen in the past, said Hailey.
Salem struggled, at times, last season. The Blue Devils wrapped
up the 2013 season with a 4-12 record under the guidance of Head
Coach Chris Kelleher. Despite the underwhelming results, the Salem
boys squad showed ashes of brilliance on the eld. In each of their
four victories, Salem scored at least 10 points against their opponents,
including a 19-7 clobbering of West High School and two blowout
victories over Manchester Memorial High School.
Hailey hopes to make those dominant wins more frequent by
creating a culture that expects victory at Salem High School. The
team has established talents that, despite their youth, have collected
valuable experience over the last couple of seasons.
We are young, but we do have some varsity experience, said
Hailey. We have only ve seniors on the team, but a good number
of sophomores and juniors do have a fair amount of varsity experience
from the past couple of years.
Young teams require strong leadership. A captain, or captains, with
the ability to lead by example is a necessity for a blossoming program.
Hailey believes senior co-captain Oliver Ouellet, a mid-elder, will
help guide the Blue Devils toward success on the eld and in the
classroom. He is going to be one of our leaders on and off the eld,
said Hailey.
Perhaps Salems biggest question mark on the eld this season will
be at the attack position. The attack is dominated by youth as there
will be only one returning player with limited varsity experience.
Our attack men are probably going to be led by Timmy Craig, said
Hailey. Craig, a junior, played only a pair of varsity games last season
but showed glimpses of his potential in those outings.
Whether on the ice or in the eld, Salems Sam MacDonald halts
offensive attacks like few high school athletes in the state. For the
Salem boys lacrosse squad, MacDonald will return to his role as a
defender, which earned him All-State Honorable Mention honors last
season. MacDonald, also the Salem hockey teams star goalie, has an
excellent opportunity to surpass last seasons defensive dominance.
Were going to be a defense-versed team, said Hailey. With
changing the culture, theres going to be different practice plans than
what we have done in the past to get everyone on the same page
and working together. Over the last couple of seasons, Salem has
struggled on the defensive side
of the ball by allowing a number
of goals each game. With
MacDonald leading the defense
this season and a more focused
approach to that side of the
game, Hailey hopes to cut down
opposing teams offenses.
Helping that cause will be
one of two junior goalkeepers.
In net, we have two juniors
who will be battling for the
starting spot, said Hailey. Both
Evan Phair and Ryan Nelson
will compete for the starting
job. Both athletes have limited
experience at the varsity level
but have had solid outings when
called upon to play.
A smaller goal this year
would be to nish somewhere
around .500 which would be a
drastic improvement over what
we have done in the past, said
Hailey. Wed like to qualify for
the postseason tournament.
Salem will open their season
at home on Wednesday, April
16 as they host Timberlane
High School. It will be the
rst step on a journey toward
a revitalized program. That, at
least, is the plan for these Blue
Devils. Building the team
from the beginning is going
to be really important for us,
said Hailey. Teamwork, in all
aspects of the game, is going to
be important.

The Salem Bulldog wrestling team recently completed a dominant
eight-year run by winning the Youth New England Wrestling
Championships. More than 150 teams from each of the six New
England states competed in the tournament. The Salem Bulldogs
won the town division of the tournament, and local powerhouse
Smittys Barn won the club division of the tournament. While
both the Salem Bulldogs and Smittys Barn earned the distinction of
champions, several other local wrestling organizations competed well
and represented the local area proudly. The top ve teams from each
division are listed below:
Town: Salem, N.H. (rst); Danbury, Conn. (second); Masconomet,
Mass. (third); Chelmsford, Mass. (fourth); and Timberlane, N.H. (fth)
Club: Smittys Barn, N.H. (rst); Doughboys, Mass. (second); NE
Elite, Conn. (third); Mercury Rising, Mass. (fourth); and KT Kids, Conn.
(fth)
While the achievement of the wrestlers in winning the New
England tournament is outstanding, the journey that got them there is
equally impressive. Over the last eight years the Salem Bulldogs have
been almost unstoppable at the NH state championships. The current
members of the 7th and 8th grade team have won six of eight state
championships, the members of the 5th and 6th grade team have won
all six of six state championships, and the members of the K-4 team
have won three of four state championships.
The success of the Salem Bulldogs is clearly an indication of the
commitment and hard work of all its members. Individually, the
Salem Bulldogs have produced four New England champions and
several state champions over the last eight years. Many of those
wrestlers have earned those championships in multiple years. The
New England champions and state champions from the current team
are listed below.
New England Champions:
Jared Durkin - eighth grade
Tristen Cabinta (2x) - seventh grade
Mikey Glynn (2x) - sixth grade
Brady Roux (2x) - fth grade
State Champions:
Eighth Grade: Ryan Burke (4x), Michael Coles (3x), Jared Durkin
(8x)
Seventh Grade: Tristen Cabinta (5x), Tyler Glynn (6x), Riley Millette
Sixth Grade: Matt Adams (4x), Mikey Glynn (6x), Joey Wilson
Fifth Grade: George Beadreau (4x), Joseph Gangi (2x), Zack
LeClerc,
Devon Simmons (3x),
Fourth Grade: Michael Boutin (3x), Anthony Fernandez (4x),
Jimmie Glynn (5x), JJ Murphy, Ryan ORourke
Third Grade: Matteo Mustapha, Aiden Williams
Second Grade: Nathan Blanchette (2x), Dominic Gangi, Zoe
Millette, Johnny Screnci, William Murphy
First Grade: Cole Glynn (2x), Caleb ORourke
The Salem Bulldog wrestling team earned the right to showcase a
large Youth New England Wrestling Championship Cup for a year.
The cup signies the hard work and championship effort of not only
the members of the team listed above, but all the members of the
team that work hard in practice to make the team great. Plans have
been made to display the championship cup throughout the Salem
School District so the youth wrestlers can share their pride in this
accomplishment with their classmates.
Congratulations Salem Bulldogs!
