Summertime has never been so much fun at Mount Sunapee! You can soar over, under and through the trees...at the new ADVENTURE PARK at Mount Sunapee. The Adventure Park at South Peak offers the same family fun, challenge and exhilaration that skiers and snowboarders relish at Mount Sunapee during the winter months. New activities this summer: Climbing Wall/AMP Energy Airbag Jump and Interpretive Hiking Trail.
The Canopy Zip-Line Tour features a series of zip-lines, rope bridges and rappelling as you descend from the top of South Peak. There are eight ziplines in total highlighted by the final 1,000' dual ziplines to a platform behind the Welcome Center, from which you will rappel back down to earth. From the first tree platform to the last platform you will travel a distance of almost ¾ of a mile above the forest floor. Groups fly through a canopy of oak, beech, maple, birch and evergreen trees. Reservations strongly recommended; walk-ins accepted if space is available. Please call 603-763-3500.
Adventurers age six and up negotiate obstacles that stretch from tree to tree. From a central platform in the woods there is a beginner loop, two intermediate loops and an advance loop totaling 32 obstacles that vary in height and difficulty. Obstacles include zip-lines, a net traverse, rickety bridges, monkey vines, a log crossing, plank bridges, rope bridges, the swinging platforms and more. Everyone wears a harness and is locked onto a safety line as they make their way around the self-guided loops. Children and adults welcome!
These tours wind through the base area and lower slopes of Mount Sunapee on a Segway® PT equipped with special off-road tires. 75-minute tours are guided by Mount Sunapee staff and include an orientation and instruction. Come discover why Segways are even more fun when you take them off-road. Reservations strongly recommended. Please call 603-763-3500
Mount Sunapee's Disc Golf Course winds its way in and out of the woods as it follows Province Trail down from the top of South Peak. Take the chairlift to the top of South Peak where you will find the first tee box. You'll cross over streams and stone walls, bend your throws around trees and rocks, and even tee off from the top of a cliff as you work your way down the mountainside. Discs designed especially for disc golf are available for rent.
The Wild Goose Waters 18-hole Miniature Golf Course is located at the base of the Adventure Park at South Peak. The course is open daily and also Friday and Saturday evenings under the lights until 8:00pm. "Wild Goose Waters" is the Indian translation for "Sunapee". The course is adorned with replicas of the three light houses on Lake Sunapee, and some even come into play.
Ride the Clipper Ship Quad chairlift to the top of South Peak and hike the Interpretive Trail to the bottom. Great views of Mount Sunapee. Up-hill ride only. Adult $5. Young Adult/Senior $4. Junior $3. Age 3-5 Free.

The holidays are tough for grieving families. They're tough for a lot of people, really. There is so much expectation, so much obligation, so many memories to replicate and create.
In our last bereavement group we talked about how they are hard, and why they are hard, and how to make them less hard. I think part of why they hurt is that we're not used to having Christmas without Henry. We're used to not going to the grocery store with Henry, but this is only our second Christmas without him.
Last year we went out of town, to a cabin we'd never been too before. It was a very good decision, and made the holiday bearable. We'll be home this year, and I can feel the heaviness setting in my chest again. I've been very tearful this week.
It's such a struggle to honor his memory, honor our love of him, yet not feel so profoundly sad about it all of the time. Some days I push him away, to avoid the sad and hurt, but not on Christmas. This year, like last year, we assembled a small tree in his honor. It's got "his" ornaments on it, as well as a number of small wooden toys he assembled and painted during his last few months. This was a favorite activity of his.
We've also added a candle. I read another bereaved parent blog who described how her family used a candle to commemorate their son and brother, and thought it was really nice. I feel a need to be able to communicate with my family that Henry is really in my thoughts on a given day, without needing to say something sad that can easily affect everyone else's moods. It's a neutral expression of love for him. It's also really nice to walk in the room and see the candle lit and realize that someone else who loved him was thinking about him too.

A memorial that does not need explanation. A memorial that can lead to pleasant memories and comfortable conversation. A memorial that honors Henry's place in this world, in this family - marking his place, forever.

I've lit a candle for everyone of my family members who has passed not only on holidays, but their special days like their birthday, anniversary, etc.....it's my way of not only remembering them, but it also brings comfort to my heart. When I light the candle I always say their name and say that I'm remembering them and love them and they hold a special place in my heart always.

I'm gunna tell you an I swear to god it's true story and not an it's kind of true but since I'm on the internet and no one will know for sure I'm going to exaggerate story.
I'm a celebrity gossip readin' gal, and one day, I wanna say a little over a year ago, I saw a pic of the Kardashians walking, and Kylie was wearing a BodyRock sports bra: bright pink with flowers, a gold zipper down the front and shiny crystals around the neckline under a loose white tank. I instantly fell in love. Bible. I immediately looked it up: The Sophie bra. I drooled a bit, and went about my very important life.
Over that year, somewhere along the way I received a BodyRock sports bra to review for some article somewhere floating out there on the internet. When the package arrived I was STOKED to see a gorgeous turquoise and white sports bra with a deep V that made my cleavage stop traffic. I love it, and still wear it, but felt a little pang of sadness that it was not my darling Sophie.
Flash forward to an article assignment from FitDay about fashionable workout clothing, and Sophie was first on my list. I emailed, crossed my fingers and my prayers were answered.

New job? Get a head start nowFebruary 17, 2012: 5:00 AM ET
About 40% of executives who change jobs or get promoted fail in the first 18 months. One way to avoid that is to lay some crucial groundwork before your first day.
By Anne Fisher, contributor
FORTUNE -- Dear Annie: I'm starting a new job in about two weeks as head of a somewhat troubled division at my current employer's biggest competitor. It's a larger role than I've had so far in my career, and I'm pretty excited about it, but it comes with some significant challenges, since the business I'll be running has been hit hard by the recession and the European debt crisis, revenues and earnings are down, and morale is in the tank.
The CEO who hired me said everyone there is expecting me to "hit the ground running." I've got some ideas about what needs to be done right away, which I talked about in interviews (and which presumably got me hired). But on the theory that there's no such thing as too much information, I'd appreciate any thoughts from you and your readers about what works, and what doesn't, in this kind of situation. --Parachuting In
Dear P.I.: It's fortunate that you have two weeks before your official start date because, according to executive coach George Bradt, you'll need every minute of that to get off to the strongest possible start. "The best way to build your team, take charge, and get great results fast is to create time by starting earlier than anyone thought you would," he says. "This one idea can make or break a new leader's transition."
Bradt is basing that partly on his own decades of experience as a senior manager at Unilever (UN), Procter & Gamble (PG), and Coca-Cola (KO), and partly on his work with 600 job-changing managers since 2002 as principal of PrimeGenesis, the executive coaching firm he started in 2002. Bradt is also co-author of a new book you might want to check out, The New Leader's 100-Day Action Plan (Third Edition).
His mission is to lower the failure rate among executives newly hired or promoted into big jobs, which research shows has stood at about 40% for at least 15 years now.
"New leaders who miss the opportunity to get a head start, before their official start date, often find out later that organizational or market momentum was working against them even before they showed up for their first full day at the office," Bradt says. Gulp. Borrowing a term from the product-development world, Bradt calls the time before you're officially on board the "fuzzy front end." Here are four ways to make the most of it:
1. Meet with critical stakeholders as soon as possible. "Identify the people in the company who can have the most impact on your success in the new job," Bradt advises. "These include your direct reports, critical support people, peers, potential allies, and even the person who wanted your job but didn't get it." Call or visit each of these folks, even just for a quick chat or a cup of coffee. It sounds simple but, Bradt says, "It always makes a huge difference. It's a game changer."
2. Have a plan for listening and gathering information. "Different stakeholders will have different views of the same situation," Bradt notes. Asking for their perceptions and suggestions "is not a search for the One Truth. Rather, it's an exercise in understanding people's views, both on what's going well and what's not and why, so that you can work effectively with each of them. Come into these conversations with an open mind and actively listen."
While you're at this, try to find out about what Bradt calls "shadow metrics" in the organization you're joining, meaning key measures of how things are going that may not be evident at first glance: "What are the key measures of success along the way? How are they tracked, and how can you get access to them?"
3. Craft your message. How are you going to present your ideas -- the ones you believe got you hired -- on where the business needs to go from here? "Part of preparing to lead is thinking through the messages you want to send, right down to details like whether your office setup will be informal and open-door or more formal and structured," Bradt says. People will be watching closely and talking to each other about you, he adds: "Everything communicates, and not always what you intended, so be careful."
4. Start making a hundred-day plan. The knowledge you gather before you officially start "should help you begin to put things in context and decide what you want or need to do on your first day, during your first week, and in your first three months," says Bradt. "It's important not so much to learn everything there is to know before you show up, which would be impossible anyway, but to have a plan in place to learn more."
Granted, this is a lot of work. "People tend to resist doing all this because there's usually a time squeeze involved in changing jobs, where your old employer wants you to stay as long as possible, and your new one wants to rush your start date," Bradt notes.
"It's also very common to want to take at least a short vacation to rest and recharge between jobs," he adds. But tempting as it might be to sit on a beach and unwind for a few days, if you really want to start strong, you just haven't got time.
Talkback: What helped you most in starting a new management job? If you've ever had a new boss come in from outside the company, what did he or she do well at the start, and what do you wish had gone differently? Leave a comment below.

In addition to being an assistant professor of exercise science at Old Dominion University in Norfolk, Virginia and DIABETES HEALTH's exercise advisor, Sheri Colberg, PhD, can add "author" to her list of credentials.
Colberg, a diabetic athlete with a PhD in exercise physiology, has penned "The Diabetic Athlete," a book that gives athletes and dedicated fitness enthusiasts practical tips to manage type 1 or 2 diabetes while training and competing for performance.
Endorsed by Edward Horton, MD, of Joslin Diabetes Center in Boston, "The Diabetic Athlete" is a 272-page book that draws from the expertise of hundreds of diabetic athletes who share their experiences with sports and fitness training. Colberg analyzes their experiences and provides practical advice on blood sugar balance, nutrition and exercise to help the reader pursue a normal, vigorously active life.
"'The Diabetic Athlete' underscores the fact that exercise is critical to the person with diabetes," says Al Lewis, PhD, board of director's chairman of the International Diabetic Athletes Association. "The book is designed for the active person with diabetes and the health care provider."
The first part of "The Diabetic Athlete" provides a basic understanding of the diabetic athlete's response to exercise and sports. The second part provides suggestions for and examples of how to prepare for and respond to exercise-induced changes in blood glucose. In addition, it also covers the following critical information:
Available through Human Kinetics publishing company, "The Diabetic Athlete" is also available at all local bookstores. It costs $17.95 and $26.95 in Canada.

Replace or refinish tub?
We are going to redo our bathroom and our tub either has to be replaced or be refinished. We aren't having any problems with our current tub, it's just worn looking. Any opinions on if we should have the tub refinished or if we should replace it? My husband and I would be doing the replacing if this is the route we go. I'm afraid that if we refinish, it won't last long and if we replace, it'll be a major construction DIY disaster. I attached a pic so you can see what we're up against. I believe the walls are plaster, and we are replacing the tiles with vinyl beadboard around the tub.
From personal experience, I would replace it. Especially if this is a bath you use quite a bit and it sounds like you are doing the entire bath anyway. We had ours resurfaced/painted and it is fine...but still an old tub.
If you are going to be removing the tiles and redoing the bathroom...then replace the tub, possibly the drain lines, and replace plumbing fixtures also. Just makes good sense in the long run.
(the cost of having a tub professionally repainted is often equal to the cost of a new tub) And with resurfacing, one has to be very careful of cleaners and abrasives/acids that can damage the paint.
Check the price to have it done professionally. I don't think it's something you want to try yourself. The finish is very touchy the first few weeks and can be easily damaged until it cures completely. In most cases the savings isn't worth it.
Your old tub is not in problem then why you would replace with new tub so according to my view i refinished the tub.I am not getting to see the real picture where your problem is existing so i will not give exact solution .This message has been edited. Last edited by: HGTVAdmin,
Our professionally refinished tub lasted for decades.
We recently totally remodeled the main bath and the tub was replaced; the finish had started to go.
We have a refinished tub in a rental, that was done about seven years ago. It's been well kept, but looks just a little dingy now, regardless of what is used to clean it with. It looked good for about five years.
The two tenants over the years have both been very clean.
The tub was refinished before I was in the picture, can't say what the process was.
I think a designer could tell you more about your particular tub's desirability from a design/market point of view, but if it were my place, and I were replacing the wall tiles anyway, my personal preference would be to replace it.

Wolfeboro Year in Review, Part II
by Thomas Beeler
Editor of The Granite State News
write the author
January 09, 2014
WOLFEBORO — In Part I of this annual review last week we covered the politics, issues and hard news events in Wolfeboro in 2013. This week will present news about the town's businesses and organizations as well as notable personal achievements of residents and a record of notable residents we lost this past year.
Wolfeboro's business community had a good year in 2013. Several businesses reached major milestones. Antonucci Insurance hosted a Chamber Social in July for its 15th anniversary, Morrissey's Front Porch celebrated its 20th anniversary on May 1 and Wentworth Economic Development Corporation (WEDCO) threw a party for its 20th year at Club 59 on Sept. 12. Leone, McDonnell & Roberts celebrated 40 years in business and Curtis Quality Care marked its fourth year in November.
Both Black's Paper & Gift Store and the RiteAid store were remodeled in 2013.
Some businesses closed or were sold but new businesses were opened. Dave Parsons sold his Carroll County Glass business to Granite State Glass in September after 32 years. Accountant Joe Santoro expanded his practice by partnering with Lorena Sinnamon to form Santoro & Sinnamon in February.
North Main Street saw a flurry of changes in 2013. Lydia's Meeting House opened in January and then became Nolan's Brick Oven Bistro. Sprouts Children's Clothing was purchased by Paul Jenne and Penny Sommer and moved to Durgin Stables in April. Granite State Goodies opened next to The Folk Cellar in May. Beveridge Craft Beer & Soap Company opened in October.
Fifteen North Main retailers got together to do joint marketing, including Upper Main Street bucks, to draw customers into their shops.
Out on Center Street Wally and Connie O'Brien remodeled and reopened the 1812 Bed & Breakfast and Antiques in time for the summer season.
The Yellow House and its antiques next to Carpenter School were put up for auction on June 27. The antiques sold well but the house did not.
The Wolfeboro Area Chamber of Commerce had a busy year. In addition to its new "Jewel of Lake Winnipesaukee" campaign and annual events, it expanded both its scholarship and educational offerings, including a media workshop for members on Nov. 14. The Chamber also took over sole management of First Night Wolfeboro after longtime partner Governor Wentworth Arts Council ended its involvement.
Community organizations
Huggins Hospital began 2013 on a somber note, undergoing a "rightsizing" in January that reduced staff by 24 positions. In November Huggins launched a series of Community Forums to update area residents on hospital issues and plans and to get feedback.

(Countertop Drying Rack)
Order today for Monday delivery
This sleek and stylish drying rack can be used with a wide variety of baby accessories. The two-piece design makes it easy to clean. Water drains into the lower tray while baby accessories rest on flexible grass blades to air dry. Great for everything from bottles to soothers.
well made, easy to use product which also looks good.
Looks great on the counter, very modern, everyone comments on it! The one thing that is a bit annoying is that you can get some great accessories that make the product even better (flowers and twigs that stick on the grass) but kiddicare doesn't stock them... Nor does anyone else appear to in the UK! Fits Tommee Tippee bottle fine as well.
It can fit anywhere on your kitchen board.
I bought this as it's best to air dry baby items. I was tired of constantly drying the countertop or using a tea towel spread out on the counter. This is magic. Absolutely perfect. The grass itself has holes on the bottom so the items drying never come into contact with the stagnant water. The bottom white tray collects the water. Easy to wash up. And can even put it into the dishwasher. The only downside is that I wish it were a little bigger. I'll probably just buy another as it's worth it.
Love this product - it's a lot better looking and more hygienic than the dinner tray and kitchen towel I was using!

- Public Financing Advocates Await Bill for Congressional ContestsMarch 26, 2009 12:55 PM
House members raised an average of nearly $2,000 a day during the 2008 election cycle--and for their Senate counterparts, the amount was more than double--but legislation that is set to be proposed in both chambers of Congress might drastically reduce the cost of running for office and the pressure to chase dollars every day.
- Obama, Ney and DeLay Also Among Stanford's InvestmentsFebruary 18, 2009 7:03 PM
As the story behind the embattled investment company Stanford Financial Group develops, we thought we'd take an even closer look at the seeds the company may have tried to plant in Washington via campaign contributions. When looking at ALL lawmakers to collect money from the company's PAC and employees (not just members of the current Congress), some additional, important names appear at the top of the recipient list.
- Investment Manager Stanford Was Big-Time Campaign ContributorFebruary 17, 2009 3:26 PM
Money manager Robert Allen Stanford now has two things in common with embattled investment manager Bernard Madoff: both have come under scrutiny for allegedly defrauding their investors, and both have given significant funds to politicians. Between its PAC and its employees, Stanford Financial Group has given $2.4 million to federal candidates, parties and committees since 2000.
- Embattled Lobbying Firm PMA Targeted Members of Defense CommitteesFebruary 12, 2009 1:55 PM
The close ties between Rep. John Murtha and a Washington lobbying firm raided by the FBI have put the powerful Pennsylvania Democrat under greater scrutiny. The lobbyists at PMA Group have been Murtha's fifth most generous campaign donor over time, but he is just one of 284 members of the 111th Congress who have collected money from the firm, which specializes in securing federal earmarks for its clients. In total, PMA Group's employees and its political action committee have given current members of Congress $3.4 million since 1989.
- Blagojevich Fundraiser Added to Obama, Biden, Jackson War ChestsJanuary 26, 2009 5:54 PM
Although it's unclear to what extent businessman Raghuveer Nayak was involved in Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich's alleged scheme to sell President Obama's Senate seat, what is clear is Nayak's commitment to funding the campaigns of the governor, the new president, the new vice president and others in Congress and the administration.
- Races to Watch II: Candidates Supported by Their PartySeptember 25, 2008 12:13 PM
Private interests and members of the public aren't the only ones betting their money on the congressional candidates they hope will win (or retain) congressional seats. Lawmakers in both parties have a vested interest in seeing their own candidates succeed this November, with Democrats wanting to strengthen their majority and Republicans hoping to minimize their losses. Here we look at some of the candidates getting the largest cash infusions from their own parties, indicating a close race.
- Money and Votes Aligned in Congress's Last Debate Over Bank RegulationSeptember 23, 2008 11:43 AM
The last time Congress seriously debated how to regulate the financial industry, the result was legislation that allowed the nation's largest banks to get even larger and take risks that had been prohibited since the Great Depression. A look back at that debate, which was over the 1999 Financial Services Modernization Act, reveals that campaign contributions may have influenced the votes of politicians who, a decade later, are now grappling with the implosion of the giant banks they helped to foster.
- Determining a Lawmaker's WorthMay 20, 2008 10:04 AM
Watchdogs and journalists are finding it difficult to determine just how much members of Congress are worth because they report their personal investments in wide ranges.
- Superdelegate UpdateFebruary 28, 2008 12:30 PM
In an update to Capital Eye's Feb. 14 report, campaign contributions from Obama and Clinton now total nearly $950,000 and have predicted endorsements about 80 percent of the time.

Customer Comments
I was very impressed and pleased by your service. I was shopping around for the perfume I ordered for my wife's birthday gift. I could not find it at many stores that I went; so I decided to buy it online. I must say that many other sites had it for double of what you had it for and when I saw your price I was sceptical because it was so much cheaper. I ended up ordering it anyway and seeing the Yahoo rating of your site made me feel a lot more easier in placing my order. I must tell you I was very pleased, I am a very picky consumer and when I shop I like to know what I am getting into. My order was here quicker than expected and from the day I placed my order I recieved an e-mail confirming it. Once again I am a very satisfied customer and I know where I am going to buy my Mother's birthday gift.

This cologne is the best. I bought it like 3-4 years ago and it's still holding up to this day. I love the smell, it's not over powering like other colognes. I have five other colognes (most were part of gifts and some I wanted to try because of the famous names attached to them) but PLAY is my go to cologne. It smells way better than those other colognes (in my opinion). I wish they had a gift set I could buy.
Most Liked Negative Review
Quite ordinary
It is nice but quite ordinary smell, but what could you expect from this price segment? It suits for young men in a age of 20-25, to my mind.

The Budget and Corporate Services Committee unanimously approved on Tuesday a tax exemption for the Burlington Humane Society for a $45,000 retroactive tax bill.
The decision goes to council for final approval Monday, Dec. 10.
The humane society received a $44,233.95 bill in October after it was revealed it had been incorrectly reassessed by the Municipal Property Assessment Corporation in 2009 as being exempt from property taxes.
The bill was deemed as being 'unduly burdensome' by the city's director of finance Joan Ford after reviewing the humane society's financial statements in a meeting with humane society staff in late November.
This 'unduly burdensome' designation means the bill can be considered for exemption under Section 365 of the Municipal Act, which allows the city to pass a bylaw for the relief of taxes that are considered 'unduly burdensome'.
The city will cover its portion of the bill at $17,427.92, while the education portion of $10,215.25 intended for the Halton District School Board will be written off.
The region may pass a similar bylaw under Section 365, meaning it will cover its $16,590.78 portion of the $44,233.95 tax bill. The region is expected to vote on the issue at its last meeting of the year on Wednesday, Dec. 12. If the region does not approve the exemption, the city will be on the hook for the $16,590.78.
