Good Evening. I'm Allison McNair. Welcome to New Hampshire Outlook. |
| Latest Day 7 Return to index of stories... |
For the first time since last week's terrorist attacks, Wall Street opened for business today. It was the worst one day point loss ever for the Dow Industrials. The Dow dropped 675 points-- surpassing the previous one-day point loss set in April of last year. Here's a look at the latest in the investigation: President Bush says he wants Osama bin Laden - the chief suspect behind last week's hijackings -- "dead or alive." At the Pentagon today, the president said he wants justice for the terrorist attacks. Federal agents will begin flying on commercial jetliners to help guard against further terrorist attacks. Tonight at least 190 people are confirmed dead from the World Trade Center, with 115 identified. 4,957 remain missing. Officials estimate 188 died in the Pentagon attack. More than 95 bodies have been recovered. Only two of those have been identified. 266 people were on the four hijacked planes. None survived. |

| Mosque Visit Return to index of stories... |
The President visited a mosque near the White House. He read a passage from the Koran which said "In the long run evil in the extreme will be the end of those who believe in it." President Bush says Americans who target Muslims should be "ashamed" of their behavior. |

Soundup: Sununu tape - sewing machine Track: That's the sound of more help on the way to New York and Washington. Globe Firefigher Suits of Pittsfield is making 50 urban search and rescue outfits for New York. This follows the 300 EMS suits they sent to the Pentagon last Friday. And there's more. Standup: Sununu tape 00:41:34 Globe Firefighters Suits donated 300 pairs of these gloves to use in the search and rescue at the World Trade Center. And the company and employees also raised more than $5000 for the Red Cross. Bite; Sununu tape 00:37:51 Gef Freese/ Co-owner Globe Firefighters Suits As a human being you feel you are helping out the USA. We love this country. We protect today's heroes - we protect the firefighter. Soundup: Sununu tape 00:14:15 "What you do is important…" Track: Congressman John E. Sununu praised the workers efforts as an example of the preparations all Americans face in protecting the country while preserving our freedom. Bite: Sununu tape 00:32:25 Rep. John E. Sununu We will strike a balance. Everyone understands better security at airports is essential. It helps protect our freedom of movement. Everyone understands that better counterintelligence efforts - FBI or CIA - helps to protect our freedom by a higher level of national security. Track: Military installations across New Hampshire have tightened their security. The Portsmouth Naval Shipyard was one of several stops for Senator Bob Smith, who spent the day visiting military officials, and discussing how to fight an enemy unilike any seen before. Bite: Smith tape 1 13:10 -Sen. Bob Smith- We're going to do it right - we're going to kill this monster. And it is a monster - and it must be killed. You don't cut off a tentacle. Bin Laden is a tentacle - he is one part of it but there is much much more. There are nations who are supporting the funding of these operations. Bank accounts have to be confiscated. And nations that are harboring these terrorists are going to be hit if they don't give them up. Track: Military action against those nations would most likely be supported by the air refueling wing at the Pease Air Nation National Guard base, where part-time reservists are already pulling full-time duty. Bite; Smith tape 2 32:47 -Tech. Sgt. Aimee Normandeau/ NH Air National Guard - It's just the scariest prospect not knowing - I wish I did know but - just for plans for the future. I have a 4 ˝ month old baby at home right now so it's a scary prospect for me right now. Bite; Smith tape 2 00:34;53 - Major Getchen Dunkelberger/ NH Air National Guard- My husband is a full - timer here. So - word that we were activated - we would both have to go so we've been working on the home front and making sure that our children are prepared and going to be cared for. And that finances and wills and powers of attorney are all updated. So that's been our major focus right now. WHAT HAVE YOU BEEN TELLING YOUR CHILDREN? Basically, we've been very upfront with them. They've seen what's gone on on TV. We have an 11-year old who basically understands what is happening and has a bit of fear. Track: Across the nation, some 35,000 reservists have already been called up to full-time duty. For NH Outlook, I'm Richard Ager. \ |

U-S Airways announces layoffs, amid financial fallout. -- U-S Airways says it expects to lay off eleven-thousand workers, or about a-fifth of its workforce. It plans to cut its U-S schedule by about 23 percent. The airline industry is reeling from last week's shutdown and steep decline in demand from customers worried for their safety in the wake of the attacks. Other major carriers have trimmed schedules sharply. An industry group has predicted as many as 100-thousand airline layoffs in coming weeks. A company official says American Airlines, the country's largest carrier, will announce layoffs later this week. The official who spoke on condition of anonymity says the exact number of layoffs would partly depend on the size of any federal aid. Continental, the nation's fifth-largest carrier, laid off 12-thousand employees, more than a-fifth of its work force, over the weekend. AP-NY-09-17-01 1655EDT |

| Intro Laconia Elex Return to index of stories... |
This is the time of year for city and town primary elections in New Hampshire. Typically, these races are fairly low key. And - as Outlook Correspondent Jack Gray tells us - one contest in Laconia has become a family affair. 1:20-1:23 |
| Laconia Elex Return to index of stories... |
Tape 1 Doris Makely In: 00:20:03 "people say to me its like denouncing the Fourth of July and apple pie to run against your mother…." Out: 00:20:24 ".he can do what he feels is best for him and I have to respect that." Incumbent Doris Makely is running for re-election to the Laconia City Council against four oppnents. One of them is her son, Dan Makely. Tape 1 Doris Makely In: 00:26:56 "I'll be honest, it took the wind out of me…." Out: 00:27:20 ".he has to do what he feels is right for him. Mother and son are - by their own admission - not particularly close, but they both say that the race should not be personal, but rather based on issues. Tape 1 Dan Makely In: 00:01:50 "She's had a big influence on forming my ideas." Out: 00:02:03 "….different ideas, that's what it goes on." Tape 1 Dan Makely In: 00:03:30 "You know, all I figure is that I'm a young guy, I have a younger perspective…" Out: 00:03:44 "…how city government is, just a different kind of person." Tape 2 Jack Gray stand-up In: 00:13:13 "A mother and son running against each other for the same office is obviously unique, but there are two other candidates who make this campaign even more unusual." Patty Emanuel is one of the other candidates for the Ward 3 City Council seat. Her participation in this race is brining it even more attention. Not only is Patty running, but so is her husband Stanley. And that has made for an atypical situation around their house. Tape 2 Patty Emanuel In: 00:14:59 "It can be a little hectic, especially around the dinner table…" Out: 00:15:23 ".as opposed to what I think I should do for the community, that's where Stanley and I differ." Also running for the seat is Fred Toll, who says the unusual situation could either help or hinder his chances. In: 00:28:04 "People may say let's have two Makelys in the general election or let's have two Emanuels…" Out: 00:28:16 ".but essentially I'm running on my issues." Among the issues of importance to Fred and the other candidates are municipal finances and city improvement. They hope that's where the focus of the voters is. But the candidates admit that the circumstances are extraordinary. Tape 2 Fred Toll In: 00:25:11 "I was quite surprised by the quote family affair…." Out: 00:25:20 "…felt like a little bit of an outsider." Tape 2 Patty Emanuel In: 00:16:11 "I feel like I'm an episode of Family Feud…. Out: 00:16:20 "…it is quite interesting." According to one city official, a race like this is unprecedented. And now it is up to the voters to decide who - out of this unique group of candidates - they want to represent them at city hall. For New Hampshire Outlook, I'm Jack Gray. |

| Global Warming Return to index of stories... |
AP-NH--Global Warming smfnas Study says big changes in store for state -- A new study of global warming says unless green house gases are reduced, New Hampshire's tourism industry could be jeopardized. It says sugar maples would die in the southern part of the state, the snowmobile business in the north would suffer from inconsistent snow and hiking in the White Mountains would be hazardous because of air pollution. The report, called the New England Regional Assessment, is part of a four-year effort to pin down those possible changes. The report studied New England weather back to 1895. George Hurtt, a UNH assistant professor and an author of the report, says the projected global warming effects in New Hampshire are similar to national projections. AP-NY-0 |

| Seabrook Safety Return to index of stories... |
AP-NH--Attacks-Nuclear plants smfapfn Seabrook says it could withstand attack UPDATES with Seabrook comment -- A spokesman for the Seabrook nuclear plant says the reactor could withstand a direct hit from a large airplane like the attacks on the World Trade Center last week. Plant spokesman Alan Griffith says the reactor was designed to withstand a hit from a bomber plane. The 200-foot-tall reactor has two steel-reinforced domes. One is a foot and a half thick and the other is four and a half feet thick. Inside the domes, steel walls up to a foot thick protect the reactor. A speaker at a meeting of the International Atomic Energy Agency this morning said most nuclear power plants were designed to withstand only accidental impacts from small aircraft. AP-N AP-NH--Attacks-Nuclear plants smfap International agency says nuke plants vulnerable -- An international watchdog agency says little can be done to shield a nuclear plant like the one in Seabrook from a direct hit by an airliner. A spokesman for the International Atomic Energy Agency says most nuclear power plants were designed to withstand only accidental impacts from small aircraft. However, the agency, which opened a conference Vienna, Austria, today, says that nuclear reactors are small targets, and it would be extremely difficult for a terrorist to mount a direct hit that could lead to a disaster.
