EDUCATION FUNDING Education funding was before the New Hampshire Supreme Court again this week. The Attorney for the coalition communities Andru Volinsky argued the state has not done what the court ordered - define an adequate education and pay for it. State Attorney General Phil McLaughlin said it was time for the court to end its jurisdiction over the matter. LEGISLATIVE SESSION The house was called to order and took care of some business this week. Members voted 196-162 against amending the Constitution to apply renewable 10 year terms to newly appointed judges. Under current law, judges may serve until age 70. Judges in only two other states Massachusetts and Rhode Island have similar tenures of 70 or older. An early learning and literacy initiative was approved. If passed by the Senate, the bill would establish children's literacy programs for parents as well as preschool and elementary school teachers. Made Governor Shaheen happy.

| Fishing Mandate Return to index of stories... |
Some fishermen say a federal court judge's ruling - may drive small boat owners among them - out of business. The Judge sided with conservationists and ruled that fishery managers defied a Congressional mandate to restore New England fish populations. Officials say that decision means more restrictions which may include stricter quotas, trip fishing limits, and area closures. |
| Gay Clergy Return to index of stories... |
A Weare clergyman may try to become the first openly gay Episcopal bishop in the country. The Reverend Canon Gene Robinson says he's thinking about applying to become New Hampshire's Episcopal bishop when the current bishop retires in 2004. Robinson has tried to become a bishop in other states - but - he says - he thinks his sexuality may have been the reason he was rejected. The Episcopal church frowns on homosexual ministers,although the policy is not binding church law. |
| Berlin Gambling Return to index of stories... |
A North Country group - seeking to revive the region's struggling economy - is taking a look at whether or not casinos are worth the gamble. On Thursday, the Androscoggin Valley Economic Recovery Corporation heard from the mayor of Berlin and a state lawmaker, who described plans to bring jobs and money to the region by building a casino. The group says the casino could pump money into the area, but they still want to study its long-term effects on local businesses, the community and other industries. |
