| Nuke Pill Follow Up Return to index of stories... |
Governor Jeanne Shaheen and state lawmakers are standing behind their policy not to stockpile Potassium iodide in the event of an emergency at the Seabroook Nuclear Power plant. Two years ago, the state determined stockpiling wasn't necessary. Their primary concern would be evacuation. The pill limits the intake of radiation by the thyroid gland. Shaheen says New Hampshire is encouraging pharmacies to make the pill more available. She adds that the medication has side effects, and cautions people not to take it without supervision. |

| Intro Population Return to index of stories... |
Think for a moment about the largest city you've ever lived in or been to for a visit. Consider both the plusses and minuses of being in that environment. Certainly here in New Hampshire, we don't have any city that would come under the definition of a "megacity." So, should we care about megacities? Recently we spoke to Werner Fornos - president of the population institute about that issue and more. :00-:10 3:18-3:24 6:34-6:40 |

| FBI Warning Return to index of stories... |
New Hampshire officials are urging citizens to remain vigilant, in the wake of the new terrorism warning issued by the Justice Department. State Fire Marshall Don Bliss - who heads the governor's commission on emergency preparedness - says that the alert is the result of credible intelligence information received by federal authorites. The warning - however -- did not contain any specific details. Attorney General John Ashcroft would only say that there could be attacks on U-S soil - or U-S interests abroad - in the next week. |

-- United Express will begin four daily round-trip flights from Manchester to Washington's Dulles International Airport on December Third. Manchester Airport Director Kevin Dillon says the new flights are a sign the airport is growing and becoming a preference for New Hampshire and Massachusetts residents. He says some passengers flying out of Boston's Logan International Airport are choosing Manchester instead because of its convenience. In recent weeks, United Airlines has also announced two additional flights from Manchester to Chicago. Also, U-S Airways started two daily flights to Charlotte, North Carolina, and Continental Airlines has upgraded its regional jets to the 7-37 class. The 7-37s mean more seats per flight than the aircraft Continental used before. AP-NY |
