ArchivesNH Security UpdateBy Laura Knoy on Wednesday, September 22, 2004.Three years after 9-11, we look at how New Hampshire is doing in terms of emergency preparedness and Homeland Security. And, we'll look at how and where grants for homeland security are being distributed here in the Granite State. Laura's guests are Don Bliss, former State Fire Marshal for New Hampshire and currently Director of the National Infrastructure Institute’s Center for Infrastructure Expertise, located in Portsmouth and Bruce Cheney, Director of the New Hampshire Department of Safety's Division of Emergency Services. Cheney also has 25 years experience in law enforcement and was the Chief of Police in Laconia until 1991. Chandler Reports Thousands in Hidden ContributionsBy Dan Gorenstein on Wednesday, September 22, 2004.Political fundraising committees in New Hampshire come in several forms. There are candidate committees, political action committees and others. One thing they all have in common is that the flow of money in and out must be made public. But there is a odd class of committees where the requirements are not so clear. For seven years, House Speaker Gene Chandler has received tens of thousands of dollars for his personal use from a committee called simply, Friends of Gene Chandler. Until today, the names of the donors have never been reported. New Hampshire Public Radio's Dan Gorenstein has the story. The WorkshopBy John Walters on Wednesday, September 22, 2004.A great workshop says as much about self-expression as it does efficiency and convenience. What is made in a shop - and why - influences the way a shop is configured and what you will find in it. The new book, The Workshop: Celebrating the Place Where Craftsmanship Begins, gives an inside look at over 35 outstanding shops, how they evolved and how they suit the individual needs of the woodworkers who own them. Author Scott Gibson traveled around New England and met furniture makers, boatbuilders, turners, carvers and luthiers, many of whom teach as well as crafting beautiful things in wood. The text and photographs give you an inside peek into the lives and work spaces of some of America's most well known woodworkers. This interview aired previously in March, 2004. |
