Here's a look at other stories making news this Friday.
script iconChurch Abuse
Return to index of stories...
Another name has been added to the list of priests accused of sexual misconduct in New Hampshire.The Diocese of Manchester says Reverend John Nolin was not included in the original list of priests accused of abuse from 1963 to 1987. Someone apparently called the diocese and asked them why. The Diocese says it was an oversight. Nolin has not had permission to function as a priest since an unspecified accusation was made against him in 1994.
He currently lives outside of New Hampshire.
script iconBorder Security
Return to index of stories...
Senator Judd Gregg is proposing a new cabinet-level department to better manage U-S border security. The legislation would give control of several border security agencies to one department. The agencies include the Customs Service, the Drug Enforcement Administration and the Coast Guard. Gregg says inefficient communication and other resources make the agencies not as effective as they should be.
script iconForest Fees
Return to index of stories...
People who live in a county where federal lands are located - such as national forests and parks, shouldn't have to pay entrance fees. That's according to legislation introduced by Senator Bob Smith. Smith argues that charging the residents is unfair because national parks and forests remove land from the local tax base, thereby putting more of a tax burden on residents.

A new bill seeks to give police and other authorities the tools to deal with abuse complaints with preschool youngsters. Lawmakers are attempting to clarify when teachers can use force to deal with disruptive children. Current law allows the use of force to deal with children who refuse to leave a class or who are disruptive, but Nashua Police say the law is not clear enough to allow them to act on some abuse complaints.
