Good Evening. I'm Allison McNair. Welcome to New Hampshire Outlook. |
| Newington Return to index of stories... |
Residents of the town of Newington will have the opportunity tomorrow night to voice their opinion on a controversial proposal that - if implemented - would dramatically alter both the state and federal government. At hand is whether the seacoast town should secede from the state of New Hampshire. The idea stems from a petition signed by 52 of the town's 850 residents - which was submitted to the Board of Selectmen earlier this month. It's in response to some residents' long-running frustration with the statewide property tax. Joining me now to discuss the petition and it's future are Chairman of the Newington Board of Selectmen Christopher Cross, and Selectman Cosmas Iocovozzi. |
| Impeachment Site Return to index of stories... |
The law firm that helped state Supreme Court Chief Justice David Brock win acquittal in his impeachment trial is touting that accomplishment and providing information on the trial via the internet. The Law Firm of Akin and Gump is providing trial transcripts, video interviews with Brock's lawyers as well as analysis of tactics. Brock's lead lawyer, Michael Madigan, says the intent is educational and not commercial because it was the only such impeachment trial in New Hampshire history. Madigan says his team won because it outflanked the House prosecutors. You can see the site for yourself at www - dot - akin gump cases-dot-com. |

Wild horses and burros have found new homes in New Hampshire and elsewhere around the region. The Bureau of Land Management rounds up horses out west as part of a program to reduce overcrowding on federal land. This weekend 32 horses and 12 burros were adopted in Somersworth. The animals came from Oregon, Utah, Nevada and Arizona. It was only the second time the government has held an auction like this in New Hampshire, but organizers said it went so well that they will probably be back next year. |

A unique hotel room had a visit from its name sake over the weekend. The Balsams Grand Resort Hotel in Dixville Notch welcomed Governor Jeanne Shaheen and her family to dedicate the state's first-ever "Governor's Suite." The luxury accomodations feature a circular shaped bedroom adjoining a separate sitting room. The project was one of the final stages of a plan to restore all 204 guest rooms at the popular North Country resort. The man who came up with the idea for the Governor's Suite sees it as having special significance for the state. |

| Into Ciao Return to index of stories... |
When you hear the words Ciao Italia, you can't help but think of the show hosted by Mary Ann Esposito. Just a few weeks ago Mary Ann and her crew finished taping segments for the show's 12th season here at New Hampshire Public Television. Recently, I sat down with Mary Ann at her Seacoast home to talk about the program and life before Ciao. |

sot 10:15 I had a catering business, I'd prepare meals for up to 100. I remember the first catering job. I charged ten dollars a person for a wedding. I came home at 3 in the morning the day of the wedding and my husband woke up and said I hope you learned your lesson. Cooking wasn't my first love. I taught high school history. I have a bigger classroom now, the television audience. And the subject is food. Food and history you cannot separate them 11:08 -- track Mary Ann loves history and has a masters in Italian History from UNH. -- sot 12:31 I was travelling a lot in Italy back and forth studying at different schools and as I kept going I thought what a great culture a great heritage. I didn't really realize this until late in life. My home story Italian was spoken, old world food part of me grew to dislike this and that's what made me want to go to college to teach. First trip to Italy how impressive like this big minestrone soup. This light bulb went off. I loved being in Italy seeing things Just sparked an interest and then Ciao was born. -- track While teaching at the Division of Continuing Education, Mary Ann proposed the idea of a cooking show to NHPTV. -- sot 14:56 I was asked if I would be interested in a pilot for my proposal. One hot August day came to my house threw makeup on my face, gels on the windows and camera. I remember the theme. An Italian Picnic all day long. -- sot 15:37 I have learned to do simpler things from when I started out. TV is a strange medium. Cooking on a set is strange.Elements food dries out ice cream melts. Certain foods stay away from on TV. 16:22 -- 38:51 Season # 1 - I wonder how it got done. I didn't have culinary staff. Everything at home brought over props I had table and chairs I brought those over. It was a lot behind the scenes. Wondered how it ever got done.13 shows a season and the last two years 26 -- track Even with the years of experience, there are some foods that present a special challenge to Mary Ann's staff. --- 26:38 The minute I say dough fear of yeast.all these different stages of dough.one show. we used 40 pounds of flour. 27:58 -- 1748Ciao is in production all year long. we start planning once camera goes down on next season I'm looking for themes recipes I like to do things that people can do I don't want to do esoteric things I want to keep traditional Italian cooking alive. It's and about preserving culture with its young people culinary heritage. 18:49 -- track Mary Ann does that through her books too. She has just omce out with another book ____ it;s her sixth. -- sot 28:25 I like to write most of that comes from journals.travels to Italy observe in a kitchen temperature of cheese how slice something make notes in journal. put together a story focus on a person something test recipe thumbs up goes in the book 29:24 -- sot/nat 31:32 who gives you thumbs up.husband Giatano.my kids used too. If he gives me the thumbs it goes into cookbook if it doesn't doesn't go in cookbooks 1:54 -- sot/nat Do people ask you to dinner 21:17 no I like hamburg.I love grilled cheese BLTS too 22:19 -- sot/nat Do you go out to dinner? sure I never make a reservation in my name.I want to be like everyone else.Sometimes the chef send over a little appetizer. 36:23 -- sot/nat What about getting recognized.DO you like it? 36:39 I do. Except for the day I was in the grocery store. My son loves campbell tomato rice soup. And I went at seven in the morning so no one would see me. And I was just grabbing the can in the soup aisle when I heard.soup you're not buying soup in a can! And I said yes, but only this one! 37:11 --- sot 20:01:49 I've made every mistake there is to be make in the world, That;s the way to learn. I also know that no one is perfect. Wehn top chefs have made a blunder. If you make a mistake you might as wek enjoy it along the way. 20:02:07 -- Who are you idols in cooking 20:02:15 I look up to both of my grnadmoters and to my mother who is a fabulous cool. She never took a shot cut to anything. She handed that down to me and I appreciate that. . |

| ignition Lock Return to index of stories... |
AP-NH--Ignition Lock dewcon New drunken driving sentence implemented for first time -- For the first time, a New Hampshire drunken driving sentence includes a device that won't let a driver start his car if he's been drinking. Forty-five-year-old David Allen pleaded guilty to drunken driving last week. In exchange for a more lenient sentence, he agreed in Hooksett District Court to equip his car with an ignition interlock. The device prevents Allen from starting his car until he first breathes into a tube and satisfies an on- board computer that he has not consumed alcohol. It's the first sentence in New Hampshire to include the new technology. Allen also had his license suspended for three years because of a previous conviction,so his ignition lock system won't be used until 2004. |
