Hello, I'm Beth Carroll Welcome to New Hampshire Outlook. This Labor Day Weekend-- like every holiday-- police are out patrolling area highways for speeders, impaired drivers and disabled vehicles. But, this year there's another life-saving measure officers are enforcing in New Hampshire. It's the "Move Over Law" which was just expanded. Studies show the majority of drivers are un-aware of the law and what it means so, the state has launched a public awareness campaign to remind motorists to comply. |

TRK1: It's scenes like this that have fueled the push for move over laws across The country. AND UNDER SOT: Conte: you can get killed in a fraction of a second. TRK2: In the past 10 years, more than 150 law enforcement officials have been killed by vehicles along the nation's highways. The numbers swell if you include those injured. SOT: Conte: we've had officers hit in cruisers. TRK 3: In 2005 NH passed a Move Over law, requiring motorists to steer clear as they approach highway emergency scenes and flashing blue and red lights. INSERT BITE FROM END OF SEQUENCE TO HERE: SOT: People are getting killed. moved over law for everyone.its for you. NATS: accident scene or traffic nats… TRK 4: But, its not just law enforcement officials at risk. AAA says 200 roadside workers are killed in accidents every year. So in August of 2008, NH expanded its move over law to include AMBER flashing lights to protect tow truck operators and road crews. NATS: road crew? SOT: conte interview TRK5: Are motorists obeying the enhanced version of the law. We rode along with Trooper Russ Conte to find out. NATS: TRK6: Trooper Conte says too many motorists still don't understand the importance of the move over law. Sot: Interview TRK7: When motorists were put to the test on a state highway with a Dept of transportation vehicle & flashing amber lights. TRK7: failure to change lanes or lower your speed could get you pulled over…and not just in NH…its now the law of the land in 43 states and counting. NATS: …pulling over.that's amazing |

As Joe Biden begins his run for Vice President, a look back at his presidential bid in New Hampshire. |
| Intro Joe Biden Return to index of stories... |
Fresh off the Democratic National Convention, Barack Obama and Joe Biden are out campaigning and Democrats hope they're the winning ticket! It's been a week since Obama selected Biden as his Vice Presidential running mate. Biden is a veteran U-S Senator from Delaware with blue-collar roots and years of foreign policy experience. He's already run for president twice. Outlook's Richard Ager spoke to Biden in late 2007 during his most recent New Hampshire primary campaign. Here again is a look at the man who, if elected, will be just a heartbeat from the presidency. |

A group of Tibetan Buddhist monks visits New Hampshire. |
| Intro Monks Visit NH Return to index of stories... |
Much of the global spotlight has been on China in recent weeks as it hosted the 2008 Summer Olympic games. While athletes from around the world competed, 10 people, 8 of them Americans, were arrested for protesting the Chinese occupation of Tibet. As the Olympics drew to a close last week, a group of Tibetan Buddhist monks came to New Hampshire in an effort to remind people of the plight of their native country. As Outlook's Phil Vaughn explains, they told their stories, created traditional Tibetan art, and shared their cultural heritage. |

Shots of sand mandala N1- It's an ancient Tibetan art form that has more than just aesthetic value. 16:24 "Buddhists believe, if we are able to view this sand mandala, with the genuine devotion and maintaining a positive mind, it will imprint the seeds of compassion in one's heart." N2- Sand mandalas can take weeks to create, using fine sands to produce colorful works of art. Four Buddhist Monks from an Indian monastery have been on a cross-country tour of the United States, showcasing their traditional Tibetan art. During the last week of August, they were in Newmarket to work on this mandala, guests at a Buddhist retreat center, and they've drawn the watchful eyes of visitors. 13:25 "WHAT IS A SAND MANDALA AND WHAT DOES IT SYMBOLIZE? Mandalas represent the celestial mansion of divine being. And this particular mandala, sand mandala, is dedicated to the Buddha of compassion." N3 - Speaking through an interpreter, the monks share stories about their artwork. One reason they came to the United States is to raise money for their monastery in India. 4900 - "And at the same time they bring awareness of Tibet and Tibetan situation right now - the current situation." N4- Tibet has a complex history. Once an independent region it became a province of China following an invasion in the 1950s. 5415 - "More than a million Tibetans were killed at the time, out of 6 million in the Tibetan population." N5 - And thousands of Buddhist monasteries in Tibet were also destroyed. 50:38 "YOUR MONASTERY RIGHT NOW IS IN INDIA, BUT ORIGINALLY IT WAS IN TIBET. HOW DID IT MOVE FROM TIBET TO INDIA? WHAT HAPPENED? The origin of the monastery - actually, the name of the monastery is called Gaden Jangste Monastery, and the origin of the monastery was established in Tibet in 1409. Unfortunately, none of that monastery remains today. It was virtually all destroyed by the Chinese communists in 1959 during the Cultural Revolution, so out of 7000 monks, several hundred monks made it to India - they escaped. The rest of all were brutally murdered a killed and they have been taken to prison and tortured, and most of them died in prison, and some of them were killed - out of sport, randomly shooting." N6 - For the monks visiting Newmarket, not much has changed. The violence continues to play out in day-to-day life. 12:00 "It is still going on. It is still happening. You may have your entire family today. You may not be able to see one tomorrow. Vanished. This is how it's happening in Tibet." Shot of mandala - family watches 34:00 "I think it's important for people to see that they still exist and they're still trying to practice and they're still trying to survive." N7 - Gail Durocher-Wentworth and her husband Eric are from Newmarket. They realize the monks' trip to New Hampshire is one important step towards spreading awareness about the Tibetan struggle. 34:30 "And I think it's very important for the world to understand the sort of hardships they've had to go through just to practice their own religion. It's a real tragedy what happened to them. They've been through a lot, and I think the world needs to know." 35:10 "Their temples have become part of a red light district in China, and I think it's important for people to see that. Also, to apply the fact that, if that was their house of worship or a sacred place for them, they need to recognize how exactly they would feel if somebody came in and did that to their buildings. So I think it's important for them to see that." N8 - Amala Matthews is program director at the Buddhist Retreat Center. She hosted the monks during their visit. 36:30 "the timing, for one, is appropriate, because we've been seeing China through the Olympics, and I don't think people are too knowledgeable about China in general. So having monks come from what is now the Tibet region within China will just help people remember, 'Oh, there are lots of different ethnic groups in China, and completely different ways of living.'" Sounds of monks chanting 58:21 "YOU STILL HAVE FRIENDS AND FAMILY IN TIBET, SO ARE YOU ANGRY ABOUT THE SITUATION THERE?" 59:25 "What he's saying is there's a great danger for him to generating animosity against Chinese. This is the most - he's always watching and guiding his mind not to generate such animosity and anger as a spiritual practitioner, especially a Buddhist practitioner." 01:00 "So when I reflect my mind on that, then instead of generating anger and hatred towards those people I need to generate compassion and love for those people." 35:00 "I think it's important for people to see what's going on here. They get a glimpse at another religion that's been striving to survive, considering what's been happening to Tibet for such a long time." N9 - Even if it's only a few pairs of eyes watching as this sand mandala is created, the monks hope that raising awareness in cities and towns across the country will make a difference globally in the years to come. 17:47 "WHAT IS YOUR HOPE FOR THE FUTURE OF TIBET?" 18:15 "Our hope - the hope that remains in our mind - is to have our country back. As His Holiness has mentioned, we never asked the Chinese government to total freedom. We are asking the Chinese government to give us Autonomous - our Autonomy region, where Tibetans can have their own autonomous government, where they can practice their religion and culture and preserve it, and where all the Tibetans can go back and stay in their own land, and not treating Tibetan as a minority, being their own country." N10 - For New Hampshire Outlook, I'm Phil Vaughn. |

dept. of safety press release CONCORD, NH – Additions that strengthen New Hampshire’s "Move Over" law take effect Aug. 5. The changes provide additional protection to public safety personnel by specifying that motorists are required to slow down and give clearance to stationary vehicles displaying blue, red or amber emergency lights at the scene of roadside any emergency or incident. The state’s "Move Over" law took effect in 2005. The changes, which were passed in the 2008 legislative session, are intended to include tow truck operators and highway workers by specifying amber warning lights in the requirement to yield during highway breakdowns, crashes or other incidents. Forty-four other states already have similar legislation. "Slowing down and moving away from the scene of a roadside incident should be common sense, but not enough drivers do it," said John J. Barthelmes, Commissioner of Safety. "These additions to the "Move Over" law will provide protection to a larger group of emergency responders and members of the public." Being struck by a vehicle during a roadside incident is a significant cause of death and injury to law enforcement officers and other first responders. Between 1995 and 2006, 144 US law enforcement officers were killed accidentally on motor vehicle stops or while directing traffic. That compares with 119 officers killed feloniously during traffic stops. Tow truck operators and highway workers are also at risk. The Towing and Recovery Association of America has a "Wall of the Fallen" at its museum in Chattanooga, Tenn., which lists the names of 94 tow truck operators killed in roadside incidents. In New Hampshire, tow truck operators and highway workers report many close calls and two NH Department of Transportation employees have been killed in the past decade. New Hampshire police officers or other emergency personnel have also had numerous close calls and at least half a dozen have been seriously injured in recent years. Officer Robert Moore of the Derry Police says he is lucky to be alive after being struck by a drunk driver while directing traffic at a construction site on Route 28 in Windham on July 25, 2007. "I had stopped traffic for both lanes and let equipment cross. I let one lane go and was beginning to turn to let the other lane proceed and that’s all I remember," Moore said. "I was struck in the right hip and catapulted over the truck approximately 30 feet onto the shoulder of the road." Moore suffered a fractured pelvis and torn muscles and tendons. He was taken to a Boston hospital by helicopter and spent the next three months recovering from his injuries. State Police Captain Chris Colitti was working on a speed enforcement details with two other troopers on I-95 in Hampton Falls on July 4, 2005, when he was struck by a driver at 68 mph. Colitti suffered multiple broken bones in his right foot and both legs, which required two operations to repair. He also needed extensive physical therapy. Colitti was out of work completely for 17 weeks and did not return to full duty until the following May. In addition to the injuries, property damage in crashes costs taxpayers money. From 2004 to date, the NH State Police have had 36 cruisers struck in roadside incidents. Three were totaled, while the rest sustained damage that exceeded $58,000. Commissioner Barthelmes said the "Move Over" law and its new provisions would be strictly enforced to protect first responders and the public. |

The Republicans response to Hurricane Gustav is a gross over-reaction used to divert political attention. When over 80% of Americans believe the United States is on the wrong track and the McCain/Palin ticket offer more of the same it becomes much safer to politicized a Hurricane than to talk about your plan for our nation. Political conventions are critical to our democracy because they provide a window to the soul of the party showing Americans the differences in platforms. Historically conventions have always gone on through war, civil discord and many other crises. For the Republicans to shortchange Americans is a tragedy particularly during these troubling times. |
