This Sunday an advertising blitz will begin airing criticizing President Bush's energy plan. New Hampshire environmentalists say conservation and investment in renewable energy sources are quicker, cheaper and safer solutions to the nation's energy problems than President Bush's plan. They said conserving energy could have an immediate effect, while Bush proposals to drill for oil in the Arctic will take years and only strengthen the nation's ties to fossil fuels. |

As New Hampshire communities begin looking for mosquitoes that can carry the West Nile virus, Portsmouth is the first city in the state to check city catch basins.
