Priests UpdateReturn to index of stories... |
After taping our journalists roundtable - we received word from the Diocese of Manchester that Bishop John McCormack has granted leave to the two New Hampshire pastors we menrioned. They are the Reverand Edward Richard - pastor of St. Patrick Parish in Pelham. And Reverand George Robichaud of St Cecelia Parish in Wolfeboro and St Joan of Arc Parish in Alton. According to the diocese, admnistrative leave was granted after learning that the two priests are subjects of a criminal investiation regarding alleged sexual misconduct with a minor. Father George Robichaud was in Belknap County Court on Friday to face charges he sexually assaulted a boy in 1985. Robichaud is being held on 55 thousand cash and personal recognizance bail. He's been ordered to stay at least 50 yards away from all children. He will be back in court on May 13th. |

A ban on the gasoline additive M-T-B-E is one step closer to becoming law. The U-S Senate voted Thursday to phase out the chemical over the next four years. The ban - however - is not part of the energy bill in the House. Still, New Hampshire Senator Bob Smith - a supporter of the measure - says he thinks the House will agree to the ban. M-T-B-E has been criticized for contaminating groundwater here in New Hampshire. |

Tyco JobsReturn to index of stories... |
New Hampshire workers will be spared in the major job cuts announced Thursday by Tyco International. The company says employees at Tyco's headquarters in Exeter and at Tyco Telecommunications in Exeter and Newington will not be affected. The Newington plant formerly employed as many as 15 hundred workers but layoffs in October and February have left only 300 employees there. Tyco Telecommunications in Exeter employs about 100. |
Bike WeekReturn to index of stories... |
The rebellious appeal of bike week has city officials in Laconia creating plenty of rules to control vendors, camping and parking during the week. But for now, there's no one to enforce them. A city committee is struggling with how to enforce the conditions that accompany the rules such as hours of operation. Officials say, inspections are particularly important during the event’s second week, when permit holders might be tempted to bend the rules. This year's Bike Week is June 8th-16th, and as yet no one has been assigned to verify that the committee's conditions will be followed. |

Shoreline LawReturn to index of stories... |
AP-NH--Shoreline Challenge jayhmrhoflsman McLaughlin wants House to change bill that would hurt state shoreline case Updates with Marriott background -- Attorney General Philip McLaughlin wants the Legislature to reject a proposal he says would help hotel magnate Richard Marriott sidestep New Hampshire shoreline protection laws. In a letter to House Speaker Gene Chandler yesterday, McLaughlin said an amendment to a boater safety bill would undermine his office's efforts to remove a private boathouse from Lake Winnipesaukee in Tuftonboro. The state says Marriott, of Washington, D.C., illegally built the elaborate boathouse and altered wetlands. McLaughlin said he was surprised to learn yesterday that an exception for Marriott had been added to the bill. So were some House members. They said the amendment was intended to benefit someone else who wants to make a restaurant into a home. The wording is expected to be changed. |
