Inspiration Veterans Day By Priscilla Hull Today is Veterans' Day, a national holiday to remember and honor those who have spent time in active duty serving our country. Today we honor all who have served in all wars and in other situa- tions. Veterans' Day originated in 1926 with the Congress of the United States requesting Presi- dent Calvin Coolidge issue a proclamation so naming November 11 as a day to honor veterans who have served. Memorial Day, in May, honors veterans who have died in service to the country. The distinction is, to me, important. This allows us to recognize all who have served while they are still alive. The reason for the day? In 1918 the formal end of World War I took place at 11 AM on the 11th day of the 11th month with an armistice with Germany. (I once officiated at a wedding at that time on that day a century later!). The day was known as Armistice Day until 1954 when it was renamed Veterans Day. An interesting editorial note is that while many of us put an apostrophe either before or after the “s”, the Department of Veterans Affairs declared that there is no apostrophe because the day does not belong to the veterans, but is to honor them! Thus, from this time forward I will omit it. As we take time to thank, honor and remember all veterans, let us remember the debt that we owe them. While the day originated to honor our veterans, it is also a time to thank our veterans. I think particularly today of those in the National Guard, who suddenly found themselves in a for- eign land where the climate, customs, food and lifestyle are so different from ours. They found themselves suddenly cut off from family and friends, with only the men and women they serve with as their companions. True, others also who are a part of the regular services have found themselves in the same situation, but they did not leave jobs and homes suddenly to be thrust in the midst of battle. I think also of those who come back, in both the National Guard and the regular troops to find lives changed, babies grown into children; children grown into adults; grandparents, parents gone from their lives. Sometimes other loved ones also gone. It becomes a time to start over. The pain of separation lingers and at times may be- come unbearable. New jobs, new lives and always the pain of remembrance. The remembrance of things to unthinkable to speak about. What we owe these men and women is a gratitude that extends beyond human cognition. What we owe these men and women is more that can be bought with silver and gold. We owe these men and women, honesty, respect, love, grace, kindness; the list goes on and on. In the short form, we owe them our liberty, our freedom. “Let freedom ring” is commonly repeated today and every day. Do we really know what we are saying? “Let freedom ring” throughout our land and in every land where people are oppressed and hungry; without housing or adequate clothing; without hope. As often as I officiate at a burial service for a veteran, I will always be deeply touched with the flag ceremony that takes place. The honor, respect and appreciation for those who have served under that flag is well remembered and respected. Today, thank a veteran for their service. Thank them and honor them with respect and love. The Lord gives strength to His people; the Lord blesses His people with peace.

  • Official List of Public Waters
    Official List of Public Waters New Hampshire Department of Environmental Services Water Division Dam Bureau 29 Hazen Drive PO Box 95 Concord, NH 03302-0095 (603) 271-3406 https://www.des.nh.gov NH Official List of Public Waters Revision Date October 9, 2020 Robert R. Scott, Commissioner Thomas E. O’Donovan, Division Director OFFICIAL LIST OF PUBLIC WATERS Published Pursuant to RSA 271:20 II (effective June 26, 1990) IMPORTANT NOTE: Do not use this list for determining water bodies that are subject to the Comprehensive Shoreland Protection Act (CSPA). The CSPA list is available on the NHDES website. Public waters in New Hampshire are prescribed by common law as great ponds (natural waterbodies of 10 acres or more in size), public rivers and streams, and tidal waters. These common law public waters are held by the State in trust for the people of New Hampshire. The State holds the land underlying great ponds and tidal waters (including tidal rivers) in trust for the people of New Hampshire. Generally, but with some exceptions, private property owners hold title to the land underlying freshwater rivers and streams, and the State has an easement over this land for public purposes. Several New Hampshire statutes further define public waters as including artificial impoundments 10 acres or more in size, solely for the purpose of applying specific statutes. Most artificial impoundments were created by the construction of a dam, but some were created by actions such as dredging or as a result of urbanization (usually due to the effect of road crossings obstructing flow and increased runoff from the surrounding area).

  • Partnership Opportunities for Lake-Friendly Living Service Providers NH LAKES Lakesmart Program
    Partnership Opportunities for Lake-Friendly Living Service Providers NH LAKES LakeSmart Program Only with YOUR help will New Hampshire’s lakes remain clean and healthy, now and in the future. The health of our lakes, and our enjoyment of these irreplaceable natural resources, is at risk. Polluted runoff water from the landscape is washing into our lakes, causing toxic algal blooms that make swimming in lakes unsafe. Failing septic systems and animal waste washed off the land are contributing bacteria to our lakes that can make people and pets who swim in the water sick. Toxic products used in the home, on lawns, and on roadways and driveways are also reaching our lakes, poisoning the water in some areas to the point where fish and other aquatic life cannot survive. NH LAKES has found that most property owners don’t know how their actions affect the health of lakes. We’ve also found that property owners want to do the right thing to help keep the lakes they enjoy clean and healthy and that they often need help of professional service providers like YOU! What is LakeSmart? The LakeSmart program is an education, evaluation, and recognition program that inspires property owners to live in a lake- friendly way, keeping our lakes clean and healthy. The program is free, voluntary, and non-regulatory. Through a confidential evaluation process, property owners receive tailored recommendations about how to implement lake-friendly living practices year-round in their home, on their property, and along and on the lake. Property owners have access to a directory of lake- friendly living service providers to help them adopt lake-friendly living practices.

  • Draft Dated: May 20, 2007
    Final Draft for Public Hearing on April 1, 2008 CHAPTER V - HISTORIC PRESERVATION Newbury has a long and rich history parts of which are still evident today in the historic buildings and sites still existing within the town. There are not many of these historic buildings and sites still remaining in the town so it is important to retain as much as possible of what remains. These historic features reflect the persons and events which help to define Newbury as a community. They provide a valuable link to the past and, as such, should be preserved for the benefit of future generations. As a community grows and develops, a gradual erosion of its historical character can happen as incremental changes to or elimination of historical buildings and sites accumulate. It is evident from the results of the community survey that historical preservation is a very important issue for the residents of Newbury. Identifying the important historical resources to preserve in Newbury and planning how to accomplish preservation of these resources is critical to retaining these resources for the enjoyment of current and future residents. The purpose of this chapter is to highlight some of the important historic buildings and sites to preserve in Newbury, to provide a brief description of their historical significance, to describe tools and techniques to preserve these historic resources and to provide recommendations for the preservation of these resources. BRIEF HISTORY OF NEWBURY Newbury went through several name changes in its early years. The first grant in 1753 was named “Dantzic,” after a Baltic seaport, but this grant failed since it was never settled.

  • Lake Trout Salvelinus Namaycush
    Appendix A: Fish Lake Trout Salvelinus namaycush Federal Listing State Listing Global Rank State Rank S5 High Regional Status Photo by NHFG Justification (Reason for Concern in NH) Native populations of lake trout were originally restricted to 6 water bodies in New Hampshire, though stocking success has resulted in self‐sustaining populations in several other water bodies (Scarola 1987). Lake trout face several habitat and non‐habitat related threats. Anthropogenic eutrophication decreases dissolved oxygen at depths where trout take refuge from summer heat (Kelso et al. 1996). Thus, the species may be an indicator for the water quality of oligotrophic lakes (Halliwell et al. 2001). A healthy population of forage fish is important for the persistence of lake trout in a given lake. The introduction of nonindigenous fish may alter the food web in a lake ecosystem, reducing the amount of prey available to lake trout (Pazzia et al. 2002). Lake trout were rated second and sixth, respectively, for species preference in an ice fishing and an open‐water angler survey (Duda and Young 1996). Lake trout populations, especially low density, self‐sustaining populations, have been found to be vulnerable to angling pressure (Towne 1959). As a coldwater species, lake trout are vulnerable to the impacts of climate change, especially in smaller waterbodies with a marginal supply of coldwater habitat (Thill 2014). Distribution Lake trout are widely distributed throughout northern North America including much of Canada (with the exception of some Hudson Bay Drainages), Alaska, the Great Lakes Region, the northwestern states, and northern New England. Populations are found in several oligotrophic waterbodies in New Hampshire.
