White Mountain National Forest
Awarded $2 Million Federal Grant______

SUPPORTING ALL THAT IS LOCAL FOR OVER 25 YEARS!

Funding will help repair
roads and bridges damaged
by Hurricane Irene
Congresswoman Carol Shea-
Porter (NH-01) announced that
the White Mountain National
Forest will receive a $2 million
grant from the Federal Highway
Administration to help repair
roads and bridges damaged by
Hurricane Irene.
Heavy rain from Hurricane
Irene significantly damaged
roads in the White Mountains,
Shea-Porter said. This funding
will ensure that Slippery Brook
Road, Rocky Branch Road, and
East Branch Road can be
returned to good condition and
remain safe for travelers.
In January 2013, Shea-Porter
voted for bipartisan disaster
relief funding that contained $2
billion for the Federal Highway
Administrations Emergency
Relief for Federally Owned
Roads (ERFO) Program. The
White Mountains received an
ERFO grant to help repair roads
on three Forest Service routes.
Work on Forest Service Route
17 (Slippery Brook Road)
includes riprap installation,
ditch repair, and road slide

On Friday, May 2, 2014, Shea-
Porter will met with hikers and
toured the White Mountain
National Forest with
Appalachian Mountain Club
President John Judge. In
October, Shea-Porter visited the
White Mountain National
Forest to discuss the impact of
the government shutdown with
White Mountain National
Forest Supervisor Tom Wagner.
As a member of the House
Natural Resources Committee,
Shea-Porter has consistently
fought to protect New
Hampshires environment. She
also recognizes the importance
good roads and bridges play in
New Hampshire, from creating
well-paying construction jobs,
to growing businesses, to sup-
porting the vital tourism indus-
try.

On Wednesday, March 26th, Wentworth Elementary School was
visited by TIGER. This performance was made possible thanks to
Plymouth General Dentistrys generous contribution. TIGER is a
non-profit organization originating from Plymouth State
University, dedicated to educating children of all ages about bul-
lying. At 8:30 A.M. the entire school assembled in the gymnasi-
um to watch the performance. TIGER performed a number of
skits, each one with a different moral behind it. They did an excel-
lent job at conveying their message, while still entertaining their
audience. All of the students of Wentworth had a new understand-
ing and outlook on bullying. It was easy to tell that the students
understood the skits, and some could even relate to them. By the
end of the performance, TIGER had students of all grades laugh-
ing and singing along with them. After the performance, the
members of TIGER split up and visited each classroom. In each
individual class, they had group discussions with the students and
conducted activities with them. All of the students had a grand
time, and it appeared that even the members of TIGER had fun.
TIGER definitely did their job well, and impacted the students of
Wentworth in the best of ways. They arrived as strangers and left
as old friends.

Northcountry News Picture Of The Week
Like clockwork, our local bear seem to know exactly what the
calendar says, and it says its time to eat at the local bird feed-
ers!! Hope yours are taken in. - Photo by Joe McQueeney
If you have a photo which you think could make it as our pic-
ture of the week, let us know. Email it to
ncnewsnh@gmail.com.
Incessantly scouring the uni-
verse (and my back yard) for
the weird, the wacky, and the
stupid so you dont have to.
I HAVE A READER! I was
having coffee and a bagel with
a friend when a gentleman
approached our table. He com-
mented on a Bit from a few
weeks ago and said I nailed it
and he couldnt have said it bet-
ter himself! I HAVE A READ-
ER! Woo-hoo! (UPDATE: And
just today, someone else com-
mented positively on my last
column! I HAVE TWO
READERS!)
OLO (You Only Live Once)!
Thats the credo permeating
much of todays young society.
Its a justification for trying
new things (often good) and
trying dangerous other things
(not good). I would suggest a
new principle: YODO (You
Only Die Once)! We are given
one life, and most people want
to make the most of it, but at
what risk? As I think back on
my life, there were numerous
times I could have died but did-
nt. What staggers me is what I
(and the world) would have
missed had I died young. Think
before you act!
Flashback! A NH car dealer
recently caught my attention by
using the theme song from the
movie 2001: A Space Odyssey.
Sounds simple, but back in the
day, it seemed everyone was
using the theme for their prod-
ucts and services (and people
quickly got bored and rolled
their eyes when it showed up in
yet another ad)! The work is
Also sprach Zarathustra, Op.
30 (Thus Spoke
Zarathustra or Thus Spake
Zarathustra) is a tone
poem by Richard Strauss, com-
posed back in 1896 and was
inspired by Friedrich
Nietzsches philosophical novel
of the same name. A new gener-
ation, so maybe the theme is
new (to them)!
So, 4/20 has come and gone. As
my former students would have
slurred, Hey, 420, Man!
Yeah, any reference to anything
even remotely related to
drugs.... He removed the pot
from the stove.... Hey, pot,
Man! Let me blunt.... Hey,
blunt, man.While I support
legalization, these people make
me rethink my position....
A 16-year-old Connecticut girl
was fatally stabbed in her high
school stairwell, and students
say she was killed simply
because she rejected a prom
proposal. A junior high school
student told Fox News that the
girl had a boyfriend, so she said
no to the date. Thats when the
suspect began to strangle her
before pushing her down a
flight of stairs and stabbing her
to death, according to reports.
Knives, guns, hammers, base-
ball bats, cars, hands the prob-
lem isnt the weapon, folks!
Let me tell you this: if you
meet a loner, no matter what
they tell you, its not because
they enjoy solitude. Its because
they have tried to blend into the
world before, and people con-
tinue to disappoint them. Jodi
Picoult. True?
So, what do the following web-
sites have in common:
Facebook, NESN, TVGuide,
The Daily Beast,
G r e a t e r g o o d . c o m ,
USNews.com, Newser,
wimp.com, and
Undergroundhealth.com? After
I did a Google search for a spe-
cific hotel, ads for that same
specific hotel have shown up on
every one of those sites (and
others). Coincidence? I dont
think so....
So, uh, George Clooney got
engaged, and that belongs on
the news because...? By the
way, his move frees me up to be
named the countrys Most
Eligible Bachelor... except for
two things: (1) I am not a bach-
elor, and therefore (2) not eligi-
ble. Sorry, ladies. (Insert sad
face here...)
Heres the problem (from
Reuters): Two 10-year-old boys
in Colorado were caught selling
and swapping marijuana that
they swiped from their grand-
parents supplies of legally pur-
chased pot in separate incidents
at the same school, a district
official said. John Gates, direc-
tor of safety and security for
Weld County School District 6,
said a fourth-grade boy at
Monfort Elementary School
brought a small amount of mar-
ijuana to school and sold it to
three other classmates. He
made $11 on the deal, Gates
said. The problem is there are
ALWAYS those who take
advantage of and ultimately
ruin something that shouldnt
be an issue!
Chocolate... do I really need to
say any more?
Okay, politically, I am a conser-
vative Democrat and liberal
Republican with a bit of
Libertarian thrown in. I am con-
vinced the two major parties
(for the most part) have forgot-
ten our (and their) basic princi-
ples and who they represent
(actually most of them know
exactly who they represent, and
it isnt we the people [unless,
of course, you consider corpo-
rations people]).
I guess the reason I like the
shows I do (Law and Order,
Criminal Minds, NCIS) is the
characters are usually compe-
tent and almost always know
what to do and say under the
most trying of circumstances.
Its almost like someone is
telling them exactly what to say
and do! Wouldnt it be nice if
Life were that way?
Finally, I leave you with an
optimistic thought: Count no
day lost in which you waited
your turn, took only your share
and sought advantage over no
one. Robert Brault.
Later.

Mount Wonalancet is not very
high. The summit is 2,780 feet
above sea level, but the climb to
get to it is steep. The trail gains
just shy of 1,700 feet of eleva-
tion gain in 1.9 miles. And the
view from the top of
Wonalancet is not very impres-
sive. It used to be, but the trees
have grown tall and block most
of the what used to be seen to
the east. And yet this evening
Atticus and I climbed it any-
way. It was good training for
what's ahead of us and what we
lacked in distant views we took
in through our senses.
The forest is waking up. The
floor is redolent as the warming
air of the season mixes with the
cool earth that is no longer
frozen. Tiny buds are just now
appearing on trees. They came
out this weekend, but only on
some of the trees, and with one
warm day many should pop.
But for now they are furtive,
shy even, in showing them-
selves. It's almost like they
don't know if they have permis-
sion to be out yet since the
warmth of the season is not as
advanced as it usually is by the
last week of April.
Because of the steep terrain, we
took many breaks and when
stopped, I paid close attention
to bark, moss, and tiny buds. I
reached out and touched them,
closed my eyes as if to see with
my hands, and imagined I could
feel life pulsing through them.
And with my eyes shut, I
inhaled and took in the forest
that way. It's a sweet smell of
ancient and new, of death and
birth. It's the universal cycle of
life.
The mountain is moist. Much of
the ice and snow is gone, but
patches remain and standing
over them it's easy to get
chilled. And there's running
water. Trails become little
streams. The winter's snow
needs to leave somehow.
For me, each hike becomes a
meditation. I never know what
it will be about or where the
trail will lead my mind. Today, I
watched how Atticus is moving
after not hiking much last year
and now he scrambles up rocky
ledges with one less toe. He's
twelve. I remind myself of this.
We take our time more than we
used to but he's game for it and
I'm grateful for that.
It feels natural for us to be in
the mountains again. It feels
like home. There is the familiar
exhilaration that runs through
me that comes from being in the
woods close to bear and moose,
far from other people, always
with Atticus by my side. The
forest holds us tight and it is
magical.
Mount Wonalancet is part of the
impressive Sandwich Range
which cuts from west to east,
from Waterville Valley off of
Interstate 93 over to Chocorua
next to Route 16. The range
serves as the southern barrier of
the White Mountains. What
makes it impressive is not so
much the views, for there isn't
much above tree-line travel on
these trails, but the actual feel
of the terrain. Rock and sprawl-
ing root feels different here than
it does elsewhere in the White
Mountains. And yes, it really
does feel magical. It is the stuff
of Tolkien and C.S. Lewis. The
landscape from their works is
here and it makes one believe
the characters are as well, just
out of eyesight, behind the next
tree or large rock.
Each corner holds anticipation
and our senses are awake. Each
step or leap reminds us that we
are alive. And each time we
climb a mountain like
Wonalancet, I'm reminded that
we are part of the story.
Yes, it's good to be getting back
to where we belong. Back
home, again.

Hello friends of nature and wel-
come to this weeks edition of
Nature Tracks...
HATCHERIES GEARING UP
FOR SPRING FISH
STOCKING
Winter appears to have released
us from its icy grip at last. With
spring on the horizon, New
Hampshire Fish and Game
Departments Inland Fisheries
Chief Jason Smith cant help
but get excited about open
water angling and, more specif-
ically, trout fishing. Fish
Culturists at New Hampshire's
six state trout hatcheries have
been holding on, waiting for
Mother Nature to provide con-
ditions more favorable to spring
stocking. After a brief delay,
stocking trucks are ready to get
rolling in late April. New
Hampshire hatcheries have
nearly 1 million catchable-size
trout ready for this season.
"As open water begins to
appear and shoreline ice starts
to break-up, anglers including
me cant help but look for-
ward to open water trout fish-
ing, said Smith. Spring con-
ditions have been slow to arrive
this year, resulting in Fish
Culturists not being able to take
advantage of opportunities to
stock trout in early April, as
they have in recent years. Ponds
being locked in with ice and
high, cold water conditions
have made it necessary to delay
stocking in every region
throughout the state. Many of
our ponds are accessed by dirt
roads, so even in places where
the ice has receded enough to
receive fish, many of these dirt
roads are still extremely muddy
and do not provide access for
heavy commercial vehicles
used for stocking trout.
Smith explained that with cold,
high waters from melting snow,
it will be a few weeks before
rivers and streams are at fish-
able levels. Most trout species
are reluctant to bite until the
streams reach temperatures in
the mid-40s. "We don't want to
stock streams too early, because
cold, high water early in the
season does not present suitable
conditions for trout angling.
Also, stocking access is limited
until waters recede. Attempting
to carry nets and buckets of
trout over steep embankments
that are still covered with sever-
al feet of snow is a risky propo-
sition for both the stocking
crews and the fish!" said Smith.
"We're fortunate to have
Conservation Officers in the
field who monitor water condi-
tions and make the necessary
adjustments to the trout stock-
ing schedules to determine
when conditions are beneficial
to all parties involved."
New Hampshires designated
trout ponds, which opened
April 26, are generally places
where you might find early sea-
son success.
Raising a million trout each
year is no small task. New
Hampshire's hatchery system,
funded by fishing license sales
and federal Sport Fish
Restoration funds, includes six
facilities across the state.
The Berlin Fish Hatchery pro-
vides the three primary trout
species to the North Country,
including Coos County and the
northern reaches of Grafton and
Carroll Counties.
The Twin Mountain and Warren
hatcheries provide trout to the
White Mountain Region.
New Hampton Hatchery is
responsible for providing trout
from central New Hampshire
up to the White Mountains. In
June, fingerling brook trout
raised at New Hampton
Hatchery will literally take
flight, as they are stocked by
helicopter into remote ponds in
the White Mountains of New
Hampshire.
Now that we have a jump start
on spring, Jason Smith and
thousands of other New
Hampshire anglers are eager to
welcome the open-water fish-
ing season. Visit
http://www.fishnh.com to find
boatloads of fishing informa-
tion, weekly stocking updates, a
bi-weekly fishing report and to
buy your license online.
Thank you for joining us this
week. Until the next time, as
always, please take time to enjoy
the natural world around you.

GAS TAX WILL BE UNFAIR
TO THE NORTH COUNTRY
Rep. Rick Ladd, Haverhill
Rep. Brad Bailey, Monroe
Rep. Edmond Gionet, Lincoln
Rep. Ralph Doolan, Littleton
Rep. Herbert Richardson,
Lancaster
Rep. Leon Rideout, Lancaster
Rep. Laurence Rappaport,
Colebrook
A 4.2 cent per gallon increase
in the gas tax, raising $32 mil-
lion a year, will go into effect
July 1st once Governor Hassan
signs it into law. There are sev-
eral reasons why this is unfair
to North Country residents:
1. The increased tax
places an unfair burden on
working families in the North
Country as many have to drive
further distances to purchase
food, clothing and obtain med-
ical care than our brethren in
southern NH.
2. Many families continue
to struggle with their budgets as
the recovery from a stubborn
recession has not reached north
of the Notch.
3. We already pay 15 to
20 cents more for a gallon of
gas than residents in the
Concord/Manchester region.
4. 42% of the increased
gas tax revenue will be ear-
marked for the widening of I-93
in the southern part of the State.
5. Only $4 million will be
given to towns and cities state-
wide in the form of bock grants,
and towns are not required to
spend the money on infrastruc-
ture repair. Most New
Hampshire towns will get less
than 1% of the $4 million.
There is also a misconception
that the new revenue will be
placed in a lock box and can
only be used by DOT for infra-
structure improvements. Past
history should make everyone
skeptical on this count. Why?
Because the legislature is
allowed by statute to divert up
to 27% of highway fund revenue
to other state agencies above
and beyond what those agen-
cies are appropriated through
the state budget. But the last
two state budgets diverted more
than the capped 27% allowed.
In the last two budgets, $38 mil-
lion has been diverted from the
highway fund in excess of the
allowable 27%!
Any amount generated by the
gas tax or road tolls should be
directed only to highways and
bridges. This is an unfair tax
increase on the hard working
residents of northern New
Hampshire.
by: Rep. Brad Bailey, Monroe
Iam fed up with politicians try-
ing to pick my wallet clean of
any money that the moths have
yet to eat! Seems if they feel you
have a couple extra bucks lying
around they just better grab it.
This irritates me to no end and
if the government truly allowed
freedom of speech, Id be using
much harsher language!
It seems Governor Hassan
rather place a 4.2 cent gas tax
on all of us, than to allow a
gambling casino or allow the
legal sale of marijuana in the
State of NH. Right wrong or
indifferent, or whether you
agree with me or not, money
has to come from somewhere to
fix roads, bridges and an infra-
structure that is falling apart.
As far as I am concerned, the
live free or die state died a long
time ago. Instead of voting in
the direction the majority of the
population of the state wants,
the politicians that supposedly
work for the people have once
again gone with their own
agenda. Guess I knew that from
the get go anyway. They are all
alike.
Whether you gamble or not, or
whether you smoke marijuana
or not is not the question or
answer here. What it is howev-
er, is a way for the State of New
Hampshire to make huge
amounts of money through tax-
ation and finally, not through
its residents alone.
Again, whether you agree or
disagree with me, for just one
moment think about how much
money other states are making
from this right now, as Iwrite
this.
There are gambling casinos in
other states across the country
that make a huge amount of
income for their states. These
funds are used for fixing roads,
bridges, education and funding
for other things they may justify
in needing.
The legal sale of marijuana in
Colorado has made them
around $100 million dollars in
their first year. All going to the
states infrastructure.
And again, Ill say it one more
time - whether you agree or not
with the legalization of gam-
bling casinos or marijuana, you
may as well just get over it.
Mark my words, other states
will follow the likes of Colorado
in the future and little ole NH
will still be hiking taxes from
their residents to pay for their
problems!
Live Free or Die! A motto
which used to mean something
to NH and its residents has
become a laughing stock for
other states who are well ahead
of us in many areas, including
solar, casinos, legalization of
marijuana, etc. NH wont even
let marijuana for medicinal use
become a reality at this point!
I am so glad the politicians are
looking out for me and my best
interests. Isay to them, stop.
Let me look out for myself. I am
a big boy now.
So the bottom line is, states like
Mass. and Colorado will be
way ahead of the curve making
money hand over fist, while NH
just brings up the rear as usual.
Mark my words, places like
Massachusetts with their casi-
nos and Colorado with the
legalization of marijuana are
way ahead on the curve. Other
states will follow them in the
future. Its just a matter of time.
But hey, until NH politicians
realize this, please dont drink
and drive, but make sure you
stop on our major highways
and buy your booze!! After all,
thats legal to do!

Inspiring Words for You!
Dear Friends, another year has
progressed and here we are celebrating
and remembering what our Savior did for us all!
JESUS IS ALIVE!I thought I'd give you some
scriptures that you can reflect on during this
time. Please take time to read them and thank
God for what he has done for you and for me.
John 11:25-26; Romans 1:4-5; Romans 6:8-11;
Philippians 3:10-12; 1 Peter 1:3; Matthew 27:50-
53; Matthew 28:1-10; Mark 16:1-8. Take the time
to read and reflect on these. God loves you. He
gave it all! He paid the price! He conquered
death! He wants your heart. Will you give to Him?
Have a glorious Easter. God bless you.

The meeting will be held at the

with a short business meeting
and a chance to congratulate the
students who are our guests.
Honored guests include DAR
Good Citizens Kayla Maye

School in Bethlehem and
Rebecca Suzanne Daniels, from
Lisbon Regional School.
The JROTC DAR Bronze medal
winner, Cadet Kelsey Tuck from

Lunch will be ordered from the
menu when we are seated in the
Hunt Room at noon. After lunch
we will adjourn to the indoor
pool area for a close up view of
the beautiful mural painted there
by Caroline Belisle and a
chance to look for the hidden
pictures.
For handicap accessibility use
the side parking lot and the
ground level door on the front of
the building. Guests and the
public are welcome and always
cordially invited to DAR meet-
ings and there is no charge for
attendees; however due to limit-

reservations are requested.

Return of the
Winter Wren
Between the blustery days, the
rainy afternoons, and the
overnight temperature dips
towards freezing, there have
also been sunny days, clear
skies, and a general thawing of
the hills around us. While patch-
es of snow and ice remain on
northern slopes and in shaded
thickets, there are also daffodils
and tulips emerging, fruit buds
swelling, and garlic tops grow-
ing through their winter mulch.
Birds are returning, and the
black flies have yet to arrive.
It is on these warm days when
we enjoy, with gusto, opening
the cabin windows, sans
screens, while the heat of the
cookstove warms the cabin. It
is a sensory delight, watching
the world regain its hues of
greens as the roar of the river
fills the background and the trill
of birds float by the dinner
table.
One of the early returners, the
winter wren, has an easily rec-
ognizable song. What is often
described as tinkling trills and
overlapped melodies, the winter
wrens call is long, distin-
guished, eccentric and yet musi-
cal. We first heard it early one
morning just past daybreak.
Ryan made a note of it in his
daily weather records; the date
was April 8th.
Curious, he checked through
last years notes: in 2013 the
date we heard the first call was
April 7th. Isnt that amazing?
Such a delicate bird, and the
ground (this year) still well-cov-
ered in snow. Its timing seems,
well, like clock work. How
does it know?
It makes for interesting reflec-
tion, thinking about our own use
of time and how we mark it.
Sure, we all feel that itch for
Spring as temperatures begin to
warm and the sugaring season
arrives. Then, as the ground
appears, the smell of fresh dirt
is invigorating; as long johns
come off and jackets are traded
t-shirts, gratitude for warm days
and excitement for summer
plans is palpable wherever you
go. Yet if we didnt have our
calendars and clocks, would we
be as confident in our timeliness
as the wren?
Its a bit of a moot point, I
know. But for me, it brings me
to seasonality and the seasonal
clues writ across the landscape
that we call home - for these are
the very things I love so much
about our life at Cosauke.
Though we, too, have our date
books and wind-up clock, we
also have our serviceberry flow-
ers and fiddleheads, our rhubarb
and robins. The seasonal calen-
dar of the plants, trees, animals,
river, and weather around us are
a humble reminder of Mother
Natures own timepiece.
Humility and awe in the pres-
ence of so many little moments
of wonder is, perhaps a require-
ment for enjoying this simple
life of ours.
Spring is here! Time to prune
your fruit trees, berry bushes,
and ornamental shrubs! Time to
design your garden! Time to
purchase new nursery stock!

Springs Dance
Springs surge of energy is
everywhere: in the swelling of
buds that give hillsides a warm
red glow, in tulip leaves poking
up regardless of remaining
spring snows as chipmunks
fluff up their tails and dart
around old haunts. The air
smells fresh, spiders hatch
everywhere, winter stuff is
stowed in favor of spring hikes;
were getting out the canoes
and kayaks; the scarlet tanagers
are back.
Earth teems with the fever of
mating as spring throws off its
winter blanket and we humans,
just one species among all who
share this planet, reliably start a
fresh year. Were as predictable
as the chipmunks, and I wonder
if other species say to each
other, I just saw a few humans
out picking up trash on route
175, or perhaps the robins are
saying, that pile those humans
raked up scratching earths back
gives us the best building mate-
rials for this years nest.
Sometimes humans forget that
we are just one of the life forms
on earth. We forget that we have
an important role in earths
dance for all beings to share the
space, water supply, and land
with each other so that we can
all continue to thrive and sur-
vive.
Canadian activist and world cit-
izen, Maude Barlow, updates us
on our need to care for the
earths water responsibly. The
sale of bottled water continues
to be an issue on campuses. 75
percent of bottled water bottles
are trashed, not recycled, and
the water they contain often
does not meet the standards of
regular tap water. Good news is
that even airports now have tap
water spigots so that it is possi-
ble for us to carry our own con-
tainers and refill them safely
while traveling.
Barlows latest book, Blue
Covenant, is available in local
libraries and YouTube carries
several of her lectures.
Many of us rely on our NH
mountains to pump up our spir-
its. Whether we actually hike in
the high peaks or walk in near-
by wooded areas, spring is a
time to be aware of how
much our woods and all the life
forms they house nourish us as
well. Hopefully, we will choose
to protect our woodlands and
not cut them up with tower
paths that stifle life in the for-
est. Well clean up the trash on
our roadsides.
Whenever we threaten the life
of other species, we threaten
our own as well. Whenever we
value and safeguard other
species, our own health rever-
berates with robust energy.
Heres to fully embracing
springs dance!

Having brought in former Obama EPA administrator Lisa
Jackson to head its environmental initiatives, Apple Computer
has a new corporate headquarters under construction in
Cupertino, California that will use 30 percent less energy than
an equivalent conventional building, and has taken steps to
decrease the material required to produce its iPhones, iPads,
iPods and Macs. The new iPad Air, pictured here, uses a third
less material overall by weight than the original iPad.

Dear EarthTalk: Apple just
put out a big PR campaign
about its sustainability initia-
tives. Has the company made
real progress in this regard or is
this just more corporate green-
washing? And how are the
other big tech companies
addressing their carbon foot-
prints?
-- Billy A., Oakland, CA
Long criticized for its lack of
commitment to sustainability
from supporting the dangerous
mining of precious resources
and exploiting factory workers
to powering its data centers
with energy derived from coal
and not taking back products for
recyclingApple has really
worked on turning things
around over the past couple of
years. Indeed, just this past
month the company announced
that 94 percent of its corporate
facilities and 100 percent of its
data centers now operate on
power from renewable sources.
Environmentalists first took
notice that serious change was
afoot at Apple in May 2013
when the company brought in
former Obama Environmental
Protection Agency (EPA)
administrator Lisa Jackson to
head its corporate environmen-
tal initiative. Since then, the
company has unveiled plans
showing how its new corporate
headquarterscurrently under
construction in Cupertino,
Californiawill use 30 percent
less energy than an equivalent
conventional building while
playing host to some 7,000 car-
bon-sequestering trees. Apple
also reports that it has
decreased the material required
to produce its iPhones, iPads,
iPods and Macs. A new iPad
Air, for instance, uses a third
less material overall by weight
than the original iPad. And all
of the companys retail stores
will now take back any Apple
products for free recycling
U.S. and U.K. consumers can
even earn gift cards for turning
in old iPhones, iPads and com-
puters.
Of course, Apple still has work
to do. The nonprofit Friends of
the Earth has been on the com-
panys case to agree to a plan
that will reign in the human and
environmental toll of destruc-
tive tin mining in Indonesia and
elsewhere. Tin is a major com-
ponent of the solder in smart
phones and other electronics
and the popularity of such items
has pushed miners to extremes
and is linked to the destruction
of tropical rainforests, coral
reefs and commercial fisheries.
Apple sent a team of investiga-
tors to the Indonesian islands
responsible for producing some
30 percent of the worlds com-
mercially available tin, but the
company has yet to commit to
any changes in the way it
sources this increasingly valu-
able raw material.
As for other tech/Internet com-
panies, Greenpeace has been
assessing and tracking environ-
mental performance of the big
players for more than a decade.
The Internet we love, and the
companies that run it are at a
crossroads in terms of where
their energy comes from,
reports the group. Many of
these companies have already
chosen the road to a green inter-
net and a sustainable future.
Some of the best performers
besides Apple include
Facebook, Google, Salesforce,
Rackspace and Box, each of
which has committed to 100
percent renewable energy.
Greenpeace isnt as bullish on
Twitter, Pinterest, Tumblr and
Amazon, each of which relies
heavily on coal-fired power
sources for their data centers
and other operations, but still
says. If Amazon and others
want to stay innovative and rel-
evant, it's high time they made
the switch to the abundant, sus-
tainable, renewable energy of
today. Concerned consumers
can sign Greenpeaces online
#ClickClean petition asking
these big players to step up and
commit to renewable energy
and environmentally responsi-
ble operations.

Here are some questions I have
received from our readers along
with answers.
Q: I am having a problem using
Internet Explorer 11 for my web
browser, when I try to go on the
internet I have an error plug-in
cannot run, what could be the
problem.
A: When you install a tool bar
such as Google, Yahoo or MSN it
is installed as a browser plug-in,
when you upgraded your browser
from Internet Explorer 9, Internet
Explorer 10 and now the new one
is Internet Explorer 11, the plug-
in may not be compatible with
the browser you are using, if that
is the case you must go to the
website such as Yahoo and see if
there is an updated tool bar you
can install for the web browser
you are using. You can always
disable browser plug-ins by start-
ing Internet Explorer and the go
to tool/Manage Add-ons/Enable
or Disable Add-ons, go down the
list click on the plug-in you want
to disable and select disable.
Should that not work you can
restore Internet Explorer to
default settings which means all
your plug-ins will be disabled to
do that you must open Internet
Explore select Tools\Internet
Options\Advanced\Reset. Then
after you reset your web browser
you can reinstall your tool bars.
Q: My computer was running
slow, so I ran a registry cleaning
program now I dont have any
modem and some of my pro-
grams do not work.
A: This is an example of how
some registry cleaning programs
can mess up your system. When
you run a registry cleaning pro-
gram it may delete key registry
entries it cannot recognize that
may be vital for a program or
hardware to operate properly. I
never recommend cleaning the
registry, if your computer runs
slow I recommend saving tour
files and reloading your comput-
er to factory using you restore
disks from the computer manu-
facture., after you reload I recom-
mend you run windows updates
immediately before you restore
your files you have saved then
reinstall your programs you use
and data files you have backed
up.
Q: I want to move my Favorites
to my data partition so I dont
lose them when I upgrade my
computer to Windows 7. Ive
tried creating a folder on the par-
tition called Favorites and mov-
ing the files across to them from
my existing Favorites folder, but
when I open IE Ive lost access to
them all. What step am I missing
in attempting to move this fold-
er?
A: You need to tell Windows
where to look for the folder. As
youve already moved the files
across to this new location,
download TweakUI from
http://windowsxp.mvps.org/twea
kui.htm. Close Internet Explorer
and install the program. Once
done, launch it and select My
Computer > Special Folders from
the left-hand menu. Pick
Favorites from the drop-down
menu, click Change and choose
your new location. When you
next launch IE, you should find
your Favorites are accessible
a g a i n .
Theres a simpler way to move
Favorites from one drive to
another. Open two windows: one
to your Documents and
Settings{User} folder (where
{User} is your username), and
the other to your data partition.
Click and drag the Favorites fold-
er using your right mouse button,
and move it across to your data
partition. A pop-up menu will
appear, so select Move here and
not only with the folder be
moved to your data drive, but
Windows will update its refer-
ences so it knows where to look
for the Favorites folder.
Q: When I go to a download site
such as Softpedia, MajorGeeks
or CNET and I download and
install a program I get popups
other programs installed I do not
want on my computer, how did
they get on my computer.
A: Welcome to social engineer-
ing by these download sites.
When you download a program
from one of these sites look
closely when you run the pro-
gram to install it, there will be
check boxes or questions asking
you if you want to install a cer-
tain program uncheck those
boxes so the rogue programs will
not load, read carefully before
you click the next button, take
your time if you rush your com-
puter may be bitten. That is how
these download sites make
money by attaching parasite pro-
grams to the one you wish to
install.
I hope this helps, please e-mail
me with your questions so I can
share them with our readers,
maybe other readers are having
similar problems with their com-
puters. You can e-mail me at
paigecs@gmail.com or call 603-
