Another View -- Michael Biundo: GOP's problem is not the message, it is ground organizationMICHAEL BIUNDO
December 18. 2012 9:08PM
For several weeks, politicians and pundits from the beltway to newsrooms have analyzed the results and implications of this historic election. While some make valid points, few have articulated the real reasons why Republicans didn't fare as well as they hoped. Even fewer have given a direction for what it takes to be successful going forward.
Working on both the Mitt Romney campaign as his national coalitions director and the Rick Santorum campaign as his national campaign manager, perhaps I have a unique perspective. As a coach on the field understands better than an announcer in the booth why his team lost, the same applies in politics.
For the past decade, our country has been in a political flux, with the partisan pendulum swinging sharply from the left to right election after election. Nov. 6 looked to be a culmination of this with Republicans coming off a very successful midterm election in 2010 and a President who remained unpopular.
We were greatly mistaken. As the millions spent on the airwaves by both parties in critical swing states became white noise and each candidate made his own mistakes throughout the race, it is clear that this election was won on the strength of a superior ground operation.
While Republicans became overconfident from their successes in the last midterm, Democrats buckled down immediately and began to identify their voters. To those saying the GOP must water down and moderate its platform, let us remember that not once did those on the political left moderate their policies. Rather, they began by systematically revving up each section of their base.
To name a few, Democrats pandered to unions through the political theater in Wisconsin. They put in play the class warfare card by calling for the end of the Bush-era tax cuts, then encouraged environmentalists by blocking the Keystone XL pipeline. Finally they created the fictitious "war on women." One by one, they appeased those most likely to pull the lever in favor of President Obama's second term.
Their grassroots army, Organizing for America (OFA), then immediately began identifying these individuals by working with local parties in competitive states Democrats knew they needed to win. In a swing state, it was not uncommon for a voter who likely supported the President to have been contacted by a member of OFA multiple times even before April. By contrast, Republicans were months out from even setting up GOP Victory offices in these same states, let alone implementing identification programs. Pro-Republican Super PACs, our party and many of our candidates were more interested in placing ads on the air than getting boots on the ground.
Democrats also implemented an impressive operation to register new voters. In New Hampshire, I know of an unregistered young man in his 20s who bought a home in September. In October, he was greeted at his door by an OFA staffer who called him by name, told him he fit their criteria as a possible Democratic Party voter, and asked him what they could do to help him register. As expected, OFA then followed up several times before Election Day.
We all know how this story ends: with the President winning every swing state other than the two he never should have won in 2008. After digging deeper, we Republicans lost seats in the Senate, and other than a few House seats redrawn in our favor we didn't win any truly competitive House races.
As we approach another mid-term election, the pundits have been quick to say 2014 should be a historically successful year for Republicans. This might be true. However, if we as a party do not embrace the importance of building solid grassroots operations state by state, targeting voters based on our issues, and creating new voter recruitment plans, we could likely wake up on Wednesday, Nov. 5, 2014 very disappointed.
While Republicans must move forward, we need to learn from 2012 just as the Democrats learned from 2010. If we don't, we have only ourselves to blame.
Mike Biundo of Manchester was Rick Santorum's national campaign manager in the 2012 Republican presidential primary. In the general election he worked as national coalitions director for Mitt Romney's campaign.

A glorious past, an active future for Gill Stadium at 100Special to the Union Leader
September 07. 2013 12:19AM
Gill 100th goings-onThe Gill Stadium Centennial Celebration, which began with Friday's boys' soccer game between Manchester High Central and Alvirne of Hudson, continues with events on Saturday and Sunday. All events except for the performance that concludes the celebration are at Gill. Admission for all but the football game is free.
1-4 p.m.: Play on the Turf activities for all ages include races, a climbing wall, face painting and more.
4 p.m.: Marching bands from the city's three public high schools and Concord High perform.
7 p.m.: Central hosts Concord in the football season-opener for both teams.
Post-game: Fireworks display.
10 a.m.: The Temple Band, considered America's original town musical ensemble, performs.
11 a.m.: The re-dedication ceremony features local dignitaries, celebrity guests, and performances by the Average Joes Barbershop Quartet and the A.O.H. Pipes and Drums Band.
7 p.m.: At Veterans Memorial Park, the celebration concludes with a show by Vaud & the Villains, a 19-member Vaudeville-style ensemble from New Orleans.
A century ago tomorrow — Sept. 8, 1913 — the factory workers of Manchester, along with many of their friends and neighbors, had a rare Monday off from work. Encouraged by their employers to attend the grand-opening celebration of the city's new steel-and-brick stadium, they had plenty of additional incentive to attend, with the world champion Boston Red Sox coming to town for an exhibition game against a local Manufacturers League All-Star team.
Sure enough, a huge crowd celebrated the official opening of Textile Field, the facility now known to sports enthusiasts around the state and well beyond as Gill Stadium.
But as big an event as the stadium's opening was, the fact that its re-dedication will take place Sunday on its centennial is, in some respects, even more remarkable.
At least twice, the stadium was slated for demolition — once to make room for a housing development and later to serve as the site of the city's third public high school. Both times, fate intervened, and the city's premier sports facility was spared.
The games at Gill continued, and they still go on today — literally.
On Friday night, Gill Stadium Centennial CeCenCentral hosts Concord in the season-opening football game for both teams.
After the gates open this morning at 9:30, festivities begin with a performance by the Temple Band from 10-11. All events are free, except for the football game but including a postgame fireworks display.
Sunday's re-dedication ceremony is free, as well, as is a performance by the New Orleans-based ensemble Vaud and the Villains downtown at Veterans Memorial Park, beginning at 7 p.m.
Games where Gill has stood for a century actually began decades before its construction, back when the cattle-grazing area known as The Plains was converted to the Beech Street Grounds for early games of baseball. In 1895, Varick Park, a wooden-grandstand facility serving as home to a professional team in the old New England League, opened at the site, on land then owned by the Amoskeag Manufacturing Company.
With wooden stadiums already outdated by the time Boston's Fenway Park opened as a state-of-the-art brick-and-steel structure in 1912, Amoskeag decided to upgrade on the Varick Park site and began construction on Textile Field. Fourteen years after the new stadium opened, the City of Manchester purchased it and renamed it Athletic Field.
Four decades later, the ballpark changed names again, this time to honor Ignace Gill, the city's longtime director of Parks and Recreation.
One thing that hasn't changed is Gill's status as Manchester's premier facility for high school football and amateur baseball. It remains home to Manchester Central for both sports, as well as for field hockey and soccer. The football team for Manchester's Catholic high school, Trinity, also plays its home games at Gill, and every Thanksgiving the city's two highest-rated teams meet in the Turkey Bowl.
The on-again/off-again home to various professional minor-league baseball teams at various times until the Eastern League's New Hampshire Fisher Cats moved into their new ballpark on the riverfront in 2005 after a single season there, Gill still hosts American Legion and Babe Ruth League baseball, as well as youth-league football.
And it continues to attract new and varied events.
Once home to track and field meets on a long-since-removed cinder track, Gill welcomes back the sport of running next month when the Footrace for the Fallen finishes inside the stadium for the first time. A 5-kilometer run honoring fallen police officers and benefitting the Manchester Police Athletic League, the new course for the Oct. 13 race starts on Valley Street in front of the new city police department building, loops through downtown and leads participants through the right-field entrance to the stadium, with a finish at the 40-yard line. In the meantime, the Gill Stadium Centennial Organizing Committee, which has worked tirelessly for more than a year to put together the commemoration, looks forward to welcoming longtime and first-time visitors to this weekend's events at one New Hampshire's most iconic structures.
The committee also extends its thanks to its contributors and sponsors, including: Members First Credit Union; Centrix Bank; Dick Anagnost; Granite State Credit Union; Merrimack County Voiture of the Forty and Eight, Number 183; American Legion Post 21 of Concord; the New Hampshire Union Leader; the state American Legion Baseball Committee; Lionel L. Leblanc; Manchester Mayor Ted Gatsas; and the New Hampshire Union Leader.

Tuesday, July 26, 2011 - Ivan, Jan and Sascha - CZECH UP
Ivan, Jan and Sascha - CZECH UP
Jan Pribyla came in for a Czech Up, with Dr Ivan Cakovsky and Sister Sasch Borodin. Jan had a bad stomach and it needed some investigation. So he is told to get undressed and put on the white surgical smock. When he has done that The medics put him in the chair and take some vital tests, like blood pressure and temperature, using the thermometer in the dick trick. But he fails to get a reading, so he then tries the ass, and is more successful. Ivan decides that further examination of Jan's ass is required, so he gloves up and slides a finger in. At the same time Sascha starts kissing Jan and plays with his cock. Then Sascha also dons a glove and both he and Ivan finger Jan's ass. Ivan then sucks on ...
... more about Ivan, Jan and Sascha - CZECH UP in this newsletter
Our Coming Soon Set Preview
Artur Lafek and newcomer Jan Pribyla came in for a Raunchy Sex Duo. Artur is a lovely guy, and always gives a great performance, so I was confident that we would have a very good scene, and so it turned out. It starts with Artur, looking faubulous in only a jockstrap, bringing a tied Jan into the room before kissing and feeling him up and then removing his pants and underwear, exposing a very nice set of equipment. Arturn then induces Jan to his knees, whips out his own dick and makes Jan suck on it. Jan's head is pushed down on Artur's hard dick, and his own dick is flapping around as he does it. Artur decides to have some cock himself so he stands Jan up and goes down on him with some relish, making Jan's dick swell to it's maximum extent. Artur slobbers all over the big fat dick until he has had his fill and proceeds to chew on Jan's nipples. Then after some more kissing Artur turns his attention to Jan's ass, rimming it, and lubing it up with some spit, before sliding his fingers into the hole. Not content with just his fingers Artur decides to open the hole further with the aid of a red butt plug which he pushes all the way in and leaves it there while he puts a ball-gag in Jan's mouth. So with Jan's ass and mouth taken care of Arturn turns his attention back to Jan's cock and starts to suck it again. The time is then right for Artur to pleasure his own dick by shoving it deep into Jan's hot ass. He fucks him nice and hard in three different positions, that afford us a great view of Artur's dick ramming into Jan. Jan takes it all very well indeed and is ready when Artur shoots his load over his face he and dutifully sucks him dry. Then Artur unties Jan who is quickly ready to cum and shoots his load over one of Artur's feet, and then proceeds to lick it all up. What a great scene this is. Two definite stars in Artur and Jan.

We'll be on location tomorrow and Thursday, so there won't be any live camera of the shoots on Prague Buddies. The Monk and Pavel returned from Istanbul. They thought it was wonderful. Now I kind of regret I didn't tag along. They said the weather was in the 90s with no humidity. Coming from Oklahoma, I'd have considered that a cold wave.
Today I posted a Preview video about a great flip-flop we shot last Friday.
Last week Boris was searching for the cast of a 'sukat duo.' I said, 'Schedule Artur Lafek and Ivan Cakovsky for a flip-flop. From the start Artur had wanted to perform only as a top. I asked Boris to schedule Artur to lose his cherry in this shoot, and then flip and fuck Ivan. So, we got to see Artur's cherry being broken. Ivan rarely performs as a bottom. He's so good as a top, he usually doesn't 'have' to perform as a bottom. We scheduled the duo, both experienced some discomfort, but the shoot turned out great. I certainly enjoyed it.
Our preview tonight is a Raunchy Sukat Duo with Artur and Jan. This is a great shoot and recently I posted a Preview Video about it on the Blog:
Tomas Silhan is aged 19 and lives in Brandys nad Labem. He works as a driver and in his spare time he enjoys parties, football, hockey and tennis. Tomas is a very handsome guy, and he is quite nicely put together as well. His tattoo isn't one of the prettiest I have seen, but the rest of him is very good. I love how he shows us that rock hard dick and his very nice ass. He poses very well and I will be looking forward to seeing how he does in his erotic video.
Rado Zuska is aged 30 and lives in Melnik. He works as a driver and in his spare time he enjoys fitness, swimming and cycling. Rado is a stunning guy, with rugged good looks and a fabulous body, clearly from hours in the gym. He is also very well endowed, and knows how to use it. In this erotic video Rado starts by giving us a demonstration of some of his posing, flexing his muscles, and I must say he does it very well indeed. Then when he feels his has done enough he removes his shorts and begins to massage his ass for us, spreading the cheeks, so we glimpse his hole. Then he puts one leg up on a pedestal, to expose the hole some more, but we also see a pair of gorgeous low hanging nuts. In that position Rado starts to work on his dick as well, and we get some lovely closeups of him jacking. Rado then turns around so we can see the front view, and he continues to jack and flex. Then, will his dick rock hard he sits on the pedestal and strokes that big dick some more. We get a lovely view of a hands free hard on, as Rado rubs his body for us. Rado then lays back and lifts his legs, and spreading that ass, so we see more of his tight hole before he gets ready for his pop shot. What a pop shot it is too, very nice indeed as it spurts out. Rado is a fabulous model, and he we pushed him into doing some other shoots, where he has acquitted himself very well indeed. I will look forward to seeing them.
Jan Pribyla came in for a Czech Up, with Dr Ivan Cakovsky and Sister Sasch Borodin. Jan had a bad stomach and it needed some investigation. So he is told to get undressed and put on the white surgical smock. When he has done that The medics put him in the chair and take some vital tests, like blood pressure and temperature, using the thermometer in the dick trick. But he fails to get a reading, so he then tries the ass, and is more successful. Ivan decides that further examination of Jan's ass is required, so he gloves up and slides a finger in. At the same time Sascha starts kissing Jan and plays with his cock. Then Sascha also dons a glove and both he and Ivan finger Jan's ass. Ivan then sucks on Jan's dick until he gets it fully hard. Next it is time for Jan to get a taste of some dick, and he sucks Ivan and Sascha in turn, while wanking himself. But Ivan doesn't forget all about his duties as a Dr and gets the proctoscope and checks Jan's ass some more. It seems that it needs further attention, so Ivan has Jan sit down on his throbbing dick for further penetration. Jan rides Ivan's hard dick, bouncing up and down, as Ivan sucks on Sascha's dick. A quick change of position allows Ivan better access to Jan's ass, and Jan can also suck Sascha at the same time. Finally Ivan and Sascha want to give their loads to Jan, so they unload and he sucks them dry. The guys then kiss and bring the scene to a very nice conclusion.
Ladislav Lukasik and Filip Carbol came in for a nude submission wrestling match. It turned into a really entertaining match. Starting quite sedatelyl with some loosening up exercises, before getting down to the match. The first round was particularly hard fought and ran for an extended time. But things were quite evenly placed still at 1-1 when the guys stripped off their slipys and started round 3. It was still very competitive but after a lot hard work Filip won rounds 3, 4, 5, 6 to lead 5-1. Then the guys took a break to oil each others bodies, which makes them look great, as they glisten, but also puts a different edge on the wrestling as they are now slippery. As the match progresses we get some really great views, close-up of the guys intimate areas, and they fight really well. However Filip eventually prevails 15-2, a score which does not reflect on how well Ladislav also fought. The guys then relaxed and wanked each other before, as a reward for winning Filip received a very nice blow job from Ladislav and then they wanked themselves to cumshots before heading to the shower. This was a lovely match to watch, and at 56 minutes is one of the longest.

Is this review helpful? Yes
Nice watch. Thank you! Solid transaction as always!
I was in the market for a Breitling Watch for my husband for his 50th birthday. I didn't know where to start so I just Googled Breitling watches and Swiss Watch Expo seemed to have a variety to choose from with prices within my budget. I was a little leery on buying such an expensive watch that i would never see or touch. So, I called and spoke with Erik Plump and he was extremely helpful with my investigation into the right watch for my husband. While we were on the phone i was reading off stock numbers from watches I found on their website and he was physically looking at them and telling me feedback on each specific watch. He was very blunt about the condition of each watch, which helped. After going over a few watches, I finally found THE ONE. I felt more at ease after dealing with Erick about purchasing this expensive watch over the internet. The watch was purchased and shipped the same day. He sent me tracking information within a few hours of purchase. Watch arrived in pristine condition along with the appraisal, just like he said. I also took the watch to a local Breitling dealer to have it engraved and they said this was a legitimate Breitling watch and i got a great deal. Thank you, Erik and Swiss Watch Expo for helping me find the best watch for my husband.
This is my first Rolex I bought from them. It was a vintage Rolex and in just like new condition as described. 18K gold Datejust Turnograph. Excellent service/transaction ... Received it with in two days and the insurance appraisal was more than I paid for the watch!
Everything about this transaction was great. Husband absolutely loved this watch
Great Seller. Item was very well represented!!
I saw a Rolex Yachtmaster that I loved. My husband called and was able to speak with someone immediately who accommodated us and answered all our questions. We have been searching for a nice watch for a while, and this company's price, quality, and service was by far the best. I would definitely buy from them again and recommend them to friends and family.
great communication, great watch
I was a bit hesitant for a couple of weeks to order a luxury item worth thousands on the internet but I looked into SWE and the customer reviews and decided to give them a chance. I was blown away by the response time, shipping time, and quality. I ordered my Rolex at about 3pm in the afternoon and it was at my door before 10am the following day. When I needed on extra link they were willing to find me one through their local resources and have it shipped to me within one day as well. Great experience all around and their price was about $2,000 below retail price! I'll definitey be a return customer.
The staff are very helpful and honestly represented the watch. They prefer appointments, but were accommodating to me as a walk-in. I plan to buy another watch from Swiss Watch Expo.
Ordered online and in two days my Datejust arrived! Exactly as described and priced very competitively. Wouldn't hesitate to buy from them again
Really had a great experience at Swiss Watch Expo. Erik answered all my questions. The company is mainly online based, however, I was able to schedule an appointment and make my purchase in-store. This was a wedding gift for my husband and he was 100% pleased with his Rolex watch. Thank you again Erik for all your help.
Perfect transaction in every respect.
Excellent Transaction! This is the second watch I've purchased from them. Both were vintage Rolex watches and I'm very happy with them. My salesperson was Matt on both purchases and he was great to deal with.
I found an Omega Agua Terra that I have been looking for on the website. I was leery to make a purchase of this size through the internet with a site that I was not familiar with, but am glad that I did! I have been seeking this particular watch for almost a year, and when it arrived, it was exactly as described, and exactly what I wanted. thank you
Wonderfull watch as described fast shipping. Thanks!
I have now bought three Omega Speedmaster's from SwissWatchExpo and also they have helped me get extra links for one of them. Outstanding service and selection. Great prices and I know I can trust the description to be accurate. My go to place for watch purchases. Outstanding personal help also.:) Totally satisfied.
Swiss Watch Expo was great. Our initial Watch was a bit to snug for my husband. Called SWE and they immediately assisted us with the exchange process they even put our New Watch on hold for the exchange. Matt , the sales manager was very friendly and helpful. Will definitely use them again. I highly recommended SWE great watch and Great service.
Excellent Seller!!SuperFastShipping!!Excellent Watch!!
I purchased my watch via eBay and the information there was totally accurate. The watch arrived extraordinarily quickly considering that I live in Australia and was packaged extremely well with nothing left to chance for the safety of my watch. Considering that it was a 2004 model it presented as if new and was in immaculate condition with its original box and papers. Another nice touch was the inclusion of separate travel case. I would have absolutely no hesitation recommending Swiss Watch Expo to anyone who is in the market for a quality Swiss timepiece.
I definitely recommend this place, the watch I bought with them was exactly as I look at it in the pictures. I am very proud of the purchase I made with them.
Great experience. Matt was very helpful and extended beyond the initial sale of the watch. I need a couple extra links and he got them to me within two days. I'd recommend Swiss Watch to EVERYONE!
During the purchasing, I even received a telephone call. I was pleasantly surprised. The watch was securely packaged and arrived as promised. The watch condition was described and pictured. All I had to do was get the bracelet sized and am now wearing my Patek Philippe Neptune. Thanks.
Great experience. Thanks!!!
I researched a lot of sellers before deciding to buy from SWE. My primary concerns were authenticity and condition. What I found mostly were sellers that guaranteed authenticity, but provided inadequate information about the watches condition. SWE provides excellent pictures and information including serial numbers, and completely reconditions their watches inside and out. For me, their reconditioning process is the only way to guarantee authenticity and condition as the watch has to be disassembled and serviced for reconditioning, rather than an exterior polish only. I'm very pleased with this purchase and recommend SWE to anyone looking to purchase a high quality watch.
Bought a gorgeous excellent condition Rolex 18k GMT ii anniversary dial... Will definitely do business with this fine company again.
Just as advertised. Excellent seller.
Great service. Watch came as promised. It's exactly what they promised. Also came with an appraisal. These watches are verified and certified authentic. If your in the market for a luxury high end watch you can be assured you are getting an authentic product.
Matt was awesome he helped us with a surprise gift for a 50th birthday! We had a lot of questions and must of called and emailed 20x! He was very patient and very helpful! Thanks again Matt for all your help! We Love the watch!
The gorgeous gold day-date President Rolex was exactly as described, maybe even better. Shipping was prompt. Plus, Not only did SWE send the original Rolex box but also a smart, zippered, lined aftermarket box for general daily use. Very impressive customer service. SWE exceeded my expectations.
Ordering was fast and easy. Check out was fast and easy. I called to ask some questions about the watch I was going to order and they were very patient and helpful. You can't go wrong with Swiss Watch Expo!
Description of product was spot on. Received my timepiece in a quick fashion. Got a great price. I'm really happy with the customer service.
The entire buying experience was great! Great costumer service from the start. They worked with me throughout the entire process. The watch is perfect! Exactly as described! Sales Manager Matt Robertson kept in touch to ensure I was satisfied with the purchase, their customer service, and of course, my watch! I highly recommend them!
couldn't be any better of a place to do business
This is by far the finest watch shop in Atlanta. They did a fantastic job helping me acquire two beautiful Swiss time pieces. They are most courteous and communicate wonderfully pre and post sale and are always available to answer any questions in a very courteous and professional manner. I have been to many jewelers over the years throughout the world and nothing beats Swiss Watch Expo's selection, competitive pricing and superb location. Their no haggle dealer pricing make it a pleasure to shop there. Matt, Ernesto, Victoria and the whole SWE team truly rock!
pictures of the watch looked staged, real watch looks better than the pictures
beautifully packaged. extremely well protected
Watch was just as described. Great customer service and over night shipping was reasonable. Will do business with again!
Very pleasant smooth transaction the watch is in mint condition and I'm extremely happy with the watch as well as the excellent price and customer service that I received from SWE! I've purchased 3 watches from SWE in 2 years 2 Cartier's and 1 Rolex always quality and beautiful timepieces.
SwissWatchExpo is the BEST!! Dealing with them was a breeze and the watch showed up ahead of time. The selection is beyond compare and the descriptions are spot on. I will use SwissWatchExpo again without reservation for my future watch purcheses.
Ordered off the Website. Received in excellent condition. Just love it. Highly recommend
What a great company and he loves loves the watch, quick response to questions and updated the entire journey to me as this was a gift for hubby. He loves loves it, simply beautiful.. so many compliments.. Thanks for making his birthday SUPER. You guys are the best
EXCELLENT! Featured Tudor Submariner on my Youtube channel "The Urban Gentry" A+
A great experience all around. Marcus handled my purchase start to finish and later provided great follow up to a few questions I had. The Omega chronograph /day / date exceeded my expectations and I will absolutely be back for another timepiece very soon.
I had the pleasure of working with Adam, Mat, and my good friend Victoria who were all so helpful and consummate professionals. This is my second purchase of a watch from Swiss Watch Expo and I am extremely pleased with their high end watches and professionalism.
nice watch!! Seller was excellent from description to shipping.
Excellent service, very knowledgeable staff, product delivered as promised and and in excellent condition. Will definitely buy another watch from SWE.
Efficient transaction and five star service. I ordered a Yachtmaster II from them and they shipped it out within 1 business day. I spent weeks canvassing online and they were the ones most responsive with my questions.
Great customer service. Beautiful watch! Everything as described.
I recently had a transaction with them via Chrono24. They were very quick in responding and watch was delivered quickly as well. I initially dealt with Matt Robertson and everything went very smoothly. They say that when buying watches -especially used, you are essentially also buying into the reputation of the dealer. I would do business with Swiss Watch Expo again.
I had no clue what I was doing in purchasing a breitling watch for my boyfriend and Erik Plumb could not have been more helpful! Every aspect of making this purchase was wonderful! Prompt responses, going the extra mile to find the breitling box, and giving me an appraisal for the time piece. I will definitely return for a watch for me!
I stopped by last weekend without an appointment after spending some time at a store that sells new Swiss watches. Thankfully, they had some time to help me. I wasn't sure exactly what I wanted and the staff was very patient and helpful. I ended up buying a watch that the manufacturer is still producing, is in mint condition and works perfectly, there is no way anyone could tell it wasn't brand new. I can't see any reason to buy a new watch when you can get a pre-owned mint condition one for 40% off retail. Thank you, I'll be back for my next watch.
I received my Rolex Yachtmaster 16623 in 2 days just as promised. The watch is magnificent it is truly a beautiful watch. This company truely cares about the quality of used Rolex's, when you buy from them expect nothing but the best. Thank you for an amazing time piece.
I got online a Rolex President with Diamond for my wife. Best Customer services, very helpful and reasonable price. Recommence for all shoppers.
Highly recommended-great communication. Easy transaction
Very smooth and easy buying process. We did most of the communication via email and everything was waiting on me upon my arrival and ten minutes later we were finished and I was on my way.
Amazon led me to Swiss Watch Expo where Matt shared that that particular watch without papers was sold. However, he had the Cartier Roadster I wanted in mint condition with box and papers for a fair price. He got it packaged within the hour where it would make that day's express mail. Every detail about the watch arrived EXACTLY as Matt described. Looks brand new despite being 11 years old and this watch is not currently being produced by Cartier. I have wanted this watch for 7 years and could not be more thrilled with my legacy purchase or the service I received from Matt and Swiss Watch Expo in Atlanta.
I absolutely love the watch I purchased. The watch arrive quickly and service was excellent. I must say everything exceeded my expectations. I would recommend SwissWatchExpo to all .
When making a substantial purchase online, I feel it is very important to be able to connect with a personable, knowledgeable employee on the other line. Eric was all of that and more! When I needed to exchange the Rolex I purchased for a different one, Eric was helpful and made sure the process went smoothly for me. Swiss Watch Expo will be the first place I go in the future for any timepiece purchase.
Better than expected !!! Great watch for wife !!
The care and attention that Matt gave me in my search for the watch I was looking for was wonderful. I truly felt that he was out to help me. He will hear from me again. Thank you Claire
I have personally done business with SWE, they are fantastic to work with. They sell watches that are near brand new quality and they professionally service and time all their watches before you get them. This alone could cost you 500.00$ alone to have it done. The best part is you can use also get your timepiece with payments by using Affirm. You make a down payment and then get great terms to pay it off. I have a lot of timepieces and SWE is the best dealer I've patronized. Super knowledgeable watch experts, they do not over sell watches, they deliver excellent timepieces that you agree to purchase. I would also give them 5 extra stars for their selection and quality. You cannot go wrong with SWE! Most reputable timepiece broker I've done business with!
Thrilled with my watch! A jeweler authenticated it and said it was superb. A legit place to get a preowned Rolex!
Matt helped me finalize my online purchase. I am very happy with the quality of my Swiss automatic chronograph, it was exactly as described on the Swiss Watch Expo website. Thanks for a wonderful addition to my timepiece collection.
Matt and Ernesto were very pleasant, knowledgeable and helpful in assisting me in making my purchase. The timepiece arrived very promptly and was as represented on their website. I am thoroughly pleased with the entire transaction and would certainly recommend them to my friends.
Great experience. There was no effort to upsell, in fact just the opposite. My sales rep Matt did a great job of tailoring my gift purchase for me. The watch was of high quality and exactly as advertised. I highly recommend Swiss Watch Expo if you are in the market for a pre owned watch.
My search for a very specific watch led me to Swiss Watch Expo. After discussing the condition of the watch on the phone I scheduled an appointment to inspect it in person. It was as mint condition as described but I decided to sleep on the decision before making such an expensive purchase. A week later I am now the proud owner of a circa 1991 Rolex GMT Master II with a Root Beer bezel and Slate Serti dial. Friends who have seen the watch thought it was brand new and couldn't believe it was 26 years old. Marcus was easy to deal with and no beating around bush with sales speak. He even helped me save a bunch of money on sales tax.
These guys where so helpful. Made it so easy to make a purchase of a beautiful Rolex Watch for my husband. Very pleasant manner and very patient.
Would recommend this company to my friends and family, no problem. My husband's watch came within two days.
Thanks so much! Love the necklace!!!
Thank you Swiss Watch Expo for providing a great experience in purchasing my 1601 Rolex Datejust. As this was my first luxury timepiece purchase I was a little nervous at first.
Erik and Matt assisted me through the entire purchasing process and communication was top notch. As I had many questions they were both patient and understanding.
Shipping was fast and my timepiece was exactly what I was expecting. After purchase it was nice to have Erik reach out and inquire if I was satisfied with my timepiece and to congratulate me as well.
I highly recommend Swiss Watch Expo to anyone looking to purchase a luxury timepiece online.
5*****. It was a smooth transaction, great communications. I was dealing with Ernesto and Victoria and they were excellent. Thank you for your service. I'm looking forward for my next purchase with you guys. I definitely recommend swisswatchexpo to friends and family.
Our experience with SwissWatchExpo was excellent. Adam was helpful from the start, when we initially called for information. After ordering, the watch arrived promptly, in excellent condition and exactly as pictured/described. We would recommend SwissWatchExpo for anyone looking for a luxury watch!
Bought last month a hard to find model of a watch in "unworn/never worn" condition from Swiss Watch Expo and had a very positive experience. It was a "Special Order Item" so it took me a week to receive the watch. Their price was the best I found and I even paid through a bank wire to save an additional 3%. Being my first time buying an expensive watch online, I have to say that I was a bit anxious. Having said that, Ernesto and the team were very professional, understanding and patient. When the watch arrived everything was perfect: original box, papers, warranty, stickers, etc; just like buying a brand new watch. To be 100% certain that the watch was authentic and for my peace of mind I decided to take the watch to an authorized dealer. I was finally relaxed when they reconfirmed that it was an authentic, original piece. I am a happy Swiss Watch Expo client and the proud owner of a brand new ("unworn") beautiful watch.
Erik was great and gave me great confidence in the purchase by taking pics of the watch in real time. Could 't be happier with the purchase at the most competitive price I cold find!
I live in Atlanta and called ahead to visit the showroom. Matt (the salesperson) asked which watches i would like to see. Upon arriving he had everything laid out for my review. This was my first rolex purchase and i had a lot of questions. He answered them perfectly. I have had the watch for two weeks now and love it.
These guys are the real deal. They were fast, interactive and communicated positively. I am happy with my Rolex watch. Will I buy from them again? Absolutely yes!
Honestly I was a little worried about buying an expensive time piece on line even after reading all the reviews.
SwissWatchExpo did more than take my worries away they restored my belief that good sales people are still out there !
I bought a Cartier Pasha but when it arrived I realized I had not paid attention to the size of the watch or the bracelet - the watch was too small and the bracelet too tight 😩
I reluctantly called the store convinced I was looking at a long protracted fight JUST to return the watch
And then Matt answered the phone 😊
In no time he not only explained my options helped me pick a replacement and started the exchange process
I found the same watch at a better price on their website called him again the next day about it and again my request for the slightly less expensive piece was granted !!
Seamless is the best way I can describe the whole process
Matt was understanding personable friendly and oh so helpful
And let me tell you about my new watch
It looks like a brand new one perfect in every sense of the word not a sign of anyone owning it before it became mine
Soooo if you are thinking about getting a beautiful genuine high end watch go - no RUN- to SwissWatchExpo and ask for Matt
You won't regret it I promise !!
OUTSTANDING, REMARKABLE, EXCELLENT CUSTOMER SERVICE! Bought two Rolexes here. The second, after I bought it online, we discovered that someone else had bought it just before online. The guys called us immediately, found me a similar watch, and sent it in 2 days. Next time in Atlanta, we visited the store. Got the same EXCELLENT customer service. A really handsome Asian guy waited on us - forgot to get his name - and he was everything you want in customer service : extremely knowledgeable, polite, articulate, cheerful, and funny. I've bought Rolexes from two other companies before discovering SWE. I'm sorry, now. The competition SUCKS. One, True Facet, where we first went, online, couldn't verify the accuracy of the watch once I spent over a week waiting for it to arrive there from the seller, and once they determined that it wasn't up to par, they said they'd search for a new one. I waited and waited, while, meanwhile, they had my $15k. They never found a watch for me, which should have been their first priority. I demanded my money back, and, thankfully, found SWE. End of story. This is a SUPERB luxury watch buying experience!
Erik was very helpful with my purchase. He took the time to explain how the watch worked and their warranty / repair service. So glad I was able to make this purchase locally and with so much expertise. Would highly recommend SwissWatchExpo to anyone considering a luxury watch purchase.
The team at SWE is amazing. I purchased a Rolex Day-Date from them and have received nothing but exceptional communication and support ever since the purchase. The whole staff is extremely friendly and knowledgeable. I would highly recommend anyone in the market for a luxury watch to make SWE your first stop. I for one will not go anywhere else in the future to make a purchase other than here.
Incredibly knowledgeable, helpful, thoughtful, and professional. Wonderful team with a fantastic inventory. The particular timepiece I purchased was the watch in the photographs, and arrived in such pristine condition, I had to scrutinize it closely because I honestly thought it was brand new. Thank you very much Swiss Watch Expo....you've earned a customer for life and I'll make sure to recommend you to everyone I know in the market.
I purchased a Breitling Navatimer Patrouille Suisse for my USAF aviator husband for Christmas. He was thrilled, especially when we discovered that it had belonged to a member of the Swiss equivalency of our USAF Thunderbirds. It is a once in a lifetime watch that he treasures and will hand down to his son someday.
The service was excellent.Their team was extremely knowledgeable and helped me make a decision. They also worked with me to make sure I got it in time for Father's Day! I would absolutely shop with confidence with them again!
Hi... I don't have a Facebook page but I'm having my sisters.... Yes, I, kesha Shaw have bought my second Breitling from Swiss watch Expo and it has been nothing pure 100% authenticity. This company deals with nothing but professionalism to make sure your experience is of greatness... Thus, I'm one that is very skeptical about buying anything online and afraid of getting something other than what I've seen or was told... Not this company and I will definitely recommend anyone to purchase a great time piece from Swiss watch Expo... You'll find yourself leaving nothing but great reviews about this company such as myself.
I have searched for a specific watch that I regret selling years ago. That search led me to Swiss Watch Expo and the price was shockingly in the same price range as the one I purchased in 2005. After reading the online reviews for SWE I decided to purchase the watch. I am pleased to say the actual watch exceeded my expectations. It looks much better than the online photo.
I recently treated myself to a "new" Rolex from Swiss Watch Expo. I was pleasantly surprised with the excellent service I received from Matt. My first Rolex was a gift from my husband purchased from a retail store. If I decide I want another Rolex, I will use Swiss Watch Expo, the price and quality are great!
I dealt with Ernesto the service was professional and prompt, my husbands watch arrived and was perfect! I will most definatly use this company SwissWatch Expo again in the future and highly recommend them.
Price fair, I bought a watch small than I expect, I've requested for a change and they were more than helpful, they accepted and gave me back as a credit every cent that I paid to use to buy my new Rolex now in a correct size!
Returned a watch (watch was just as described, just "not me") No hassle return and fast refund.
I stopped by last weekend without an appointment after spending some time at a store that sells new Swiss watches. Thankfully, they had some time to help me. I wasn't sure exactly what I wanted and the staff was very patient and helpful. I ended up buying a watch that the manufacturer is still producing, is in mint condition and works perfectly, there is no way anyone could tell it wasn't brand new. I can't see any reason to buy a new watch when you can get a pre-owned mint condition one for 40% off retail. Thank you, I'll be back for my next watch!
They had a great selection of hard to find watches. The issue of doing a large purchase online was made easy and I never doubted the product or the people I was dealing with at Swisswatch.
Beautiful selection of watches. As soon as I had a question, Adam promtly called me. So, so nice and professional. Highly recommend and will buy from them again.
This was my first large dollar purchase of a high end watch online. I love the watch, a white gold Rolex Day Date. Great transaction. Matt was outstanding. He described the piece accurately, added the two links that were needed to size the watch correctly, and the piece arrived as promised. Thank you Matt.
Superb! The watch is exquisite, the craftsmanship is like no other. I loved the treatment as if i were a king. They did everything under the sun to ensure my happiness.
Great Company to work with. I was somewhat skeptical with a large online purchase sight unseen but Matt assured me that their watches were 100% authentic. He also advised me that I could take it to a Rolex service center for an insurance appraisal. They verified my new Rolex's authenticity and it is a fantastic watch. I plan to buy another Rolex soon. Thanks Matt!
Fantastic experience. Received the watch in 2 days. The watch was even more than I expected. Excellent condition. Received a genuine Rolex box as well as a soft sided box. The process for wiring the payment was very easy and efficient and worth receiving the percentage off for doing so. I would highly recommend (and have already done so) Swiss Watch Expo to anyone interested in purchasing a certified pre-owned time piece.
Very responsibles and delivery on time and merchandise was as they advertise. I would recommend Swiss Watch to anyone.
I've bought several watches from Swiss Watch Expo and, without exception, my experiences have been outstanding! I have dealt principally with Marcus and also with Matt. They go above and beyond and to answer my questions, provide side-by-side comparison photographs when requested and have even sent me a photo of one watch on the wrist of a female employee so that I could get a true idea of how it would look when worn! I've also had to return a couple watches for reasons having nothing to do with the company and they have handled the exchanges with exceptional professionalism, courtesy and expedience. I would not hesitate to recommend SWE to anyone looking for a fine timepiece at a great price. The quality, service and selection are unmatched!
I was in the market for a Rolex watch and did not know where to start. So, I turned to the internet and started doing my research on Rolex watches. After two weeks of casual research, I honed in on the Rolex day-date. Then I seriously started scrutinizing dealers who sold high end watches. I looked at prices, customer care, shipping, return policies, credibility of businesses, authenticity of watches, and real people who listened to customers. Bingo, I found Swiss Watch Expo; lucky me. Swiss Watch had an inventory of choice watches on hand, had the best deal, and people who could communicate to the customer. Ernesto and Matthew are consummate professionals who handled all my questions, concerns, and doubts with alacrity. I got a mint used Rolex for a price that no other dealer could match. I super highly recommend Swiss Watch Expo.I would further add Swiss Watch is my go to dealer for prestige watches. Swiss Watch Expo is the real deal.
Ordered A ROLEX DATEJUST 36MM STEEL YELLOW GOLD DIAMOND DIAL WATCH 16233 ... Watch came right on time in great condition .. Matt was easy to work with ... thanks for the great experience ... will be looking for my next one soon …
great communication and client satisfaction. the say what they deliver and deliver what they say. I am an avid watch collector and would find it difficult to purchase my next high end watch anywhere but from swiss watch expo. thanks for being people of honor.
Super service. Watch as described. Mark help me on the phone and Ernesto Castillo did the watch appraisal for insurance. Rolex Sea Dweller 116600. And best price on Internet for this watch. Received watch next day and pay with PayPal. I will be ordering my next Rolex from Swiss Watch Expo for sure. Thanks.
Very friendly staff. Easy to make an appointment and a great selection of watches.
Easy peasy transaction. Watch was even better than described.
No problems in any phase of my purchase. My watch arrived on time, in excellent condition. The watch looked much better in person than it did on line. It came with the original box as well as a travel box as an add on. Very happy with my purchase and I would recommend Swiss Watch Expo to anyone in the market for a pre-owned Swiss timepiece.
I bought a Speedmaster Professional here and my satisfaction is 100%. The biggest problem with used watches are the possibility of counterfeits, so you want to buy from a reputable dealer like SwissWatchExpo. Second biggest problem is, if you buy from the same state they have to charge you a sales tax, so this place was great for me since I live in California. I would probably buy here again in the future!
My second purchase from SWE. There are not enough words of praise for the staff (for this purchase I was helped by Ernesto Castillo). The quality, pricing, and selection of merchandise exceeds expectations.

Person airlifted following assault Thursday night at Rochester hotelBy: John Quinn
Union Leader Correspondent
February 15. 2013 2:03PM
ROCHESTER – A 49-year-old man was airlifted to a Maine hospital after receiving a serious head injury during an assault at a local long-term hotel along Route 125 Thursday evening.
Police, firefighters and emergency personnel responded around 8 p.m. after the man was struck during an incident at the Residence Inn at 182 Milton Rd., according to Deputy Police Chief Scott Dumas. The identity of the man has not been released.
Dumas said police are looking into whether the serious head injury was caused by an object or another person.
"We anticipate making an arrest this afternoon," Dumas said, adding more information will be released at that time.
By the time firefighters arrived at the scene Thursday evening, paramedics from Frisbie Memorial Hospital were already treating the man, according to Assistant Fire Chief Mark Dupuis. He said firefighters helped paramedics by providing a driver and transporting the patient to Skyhaven Airport on Route 125.
Dumas said a flight from the Dartmouth-Hitchcock Advanced Response Team (DHART) transported the man from Skyhaven to Maine Medical Center in Portland.

In released court records, Spader's past offers few clues to Cates murderBy KATHRYN MARCHOCKI
New Hampshire Union Leader
July 29. 2013 9:36PM
MANCHESTER — Court records made public Monday show Steven A. Spader had a fairly unremarkable early childhood, growing up in a three-bedroom colonial in suburban Brookline with two loving and helpful parents; his only behavior problems stemmed from being a "class clown" who loved attention.
"We hugged and kissed each other and fooled around. He was kind of like a teddy bear kind of kid. You know he would tease you and laugh and fool around," Spader's mother, Christine Spader, 60, told prosecutors in a January deposition of her only son, whom she and her husband Steven adopted at five days old.
There were few early childhood clues in the hundreds of pages of documents made public Monday that would indicate Spader, 21, would mastermind the Oct. 4, 2009, home invasion in which he hacked Mont Vernon mother Kimberly L. Cates, 42, to death with a machete and maimed her then 11-year old daughter, Jaimie, in a pre-dawn bedside ambush.
Problems emerged only as Spader grew older and struggled to keep pace with the academic and social demands of a competitive school system. By the time he was a freshman at Hollis-Brookline High School, tensions mounted between Spader and his parents as they pressed him to keep up with his school work. His attempts to fit in with peers increasingly failed, according to hundreds of pages of court files.
Hillsborough County Superior Court Judge Gillian L. Abramson granted the motion by the New Hampshire Union Leader and another newspaper that Spader's file be made public.
The file contains transcribed depositions of Spader's parents, forensic psychiatrists and mental health history that were filed earlier this year when the 2012 U.S. Supreme Court Miller v. Alabama decision voided Spader's 2010 automatic life sentence without possibility of parole.
The court ruled mandatory life without parole sentencing unconstitutional for those who were under 18 when they committed their crimes. Spader was a month shy of his 18th birthday when the home invasion and murder took place.
The documents were prepared for a new sentencing hearing in April when Spader's attorneys hoped to win a lesser sentence. Spader did not appear at the hearing. Abramson later sentenced Spader to the same term, saying there was nothing in his youthful background, home life, maturity level or prospect for rehabilitation that would warrant a lesser sentence.
Spader's defense team hired psychologist Robert Kinscherff to conduct a psychological evaluation last December. Kinscherff found Spader had no major mental illness, but did find evidence of narcissistic personality traits, borderline personality and antisocial traits.
Adopted from an Arizona mother with substance abuse problems, Steven tested positive for marijuana and cocaine when he was born.
Spader's mother had her son psychologically tested when he was a sophomore at Hollis-Brookline High School in 2007, where the report showed Spader exhibited "unstable sense of self, deepening isolation, and a disinclination to restrain his impulses," the report showed.
Spader underwent at least two psychiatric inpatient hospitalizations since January 2008, often as a result of physical fights with his parents, one in which he threatened his father with a knife.
The hospitalizations occurred as Spader increasingly used energy drinks, smoked marijuana, used cocaine and other street drugs; his conflicts with his parents intensified; he began adopting a "gang persona" that was out of step with the predominantly "preppy" school culture, according to the documents.
He attended school less and ultimately dropped out in spring 2009.
His relationship with a student at Souhegan High School in Amherst, enabled Spader to emerge as the "cool" new arrival on that social scene, including his efforts to present himself as an outlaw and as the leader of his peer group.

STOCKTON – Police reported five shootings during a one-hour period Monday night that resulted in one person shot, three dwellings struck and three vehicles hit by bullets.
STOCKTON – Police reported five shootings during a one-hour period Monday night that resulted in one person shot, three dwellings struck and three vehicles hit by bullets.
"We are looking at the possibility of these shootings or some of them being related based on their close proximity in time and locations," Stockton police spokesman Officer Joe Silva said today.
An 18-year-old man walking near E.W.S Woods and William Moss boulevards around 8:50 p.m. Monday was fired upon by an occupant of a gray Ford Taurus as it drove by. Several rounds were fired and the man was hit, resulting in a non-life-threatening injury that was treated at an area hospital. No further information was available on the shooting suspect.
About an hour earlier, a 38-year-old resident of the 600 block of West Park Street reported he heard gunfire and realized his residence had been shot. Responding officers found shell casings outside but no information leading to a shooting suspect.
At 8:27 p.m. in the 2100 block of Long Island Drive, a woman reported her house was hit by gunfire. Shell casings were found at the scene, and a witness reported seeing a white midsize vehicle leaving the area.
Twelve minutes later, police received a call from a 52-year-old resident of the 2100 block of Scribner Street reporting that she heard gunfire and discovered both of her vehicles had been struck. Again, shell casings were discovered but no information was immediately available leading to a suspect.
Another shooting report came in to police during this time from a 35-year-old resident of the 2600 block of Clearfield Drive. When the resident returned home, she discovered both her house and one of her vehicles had been hit by gunfire. Shell casings were found, but no information on a shooter was immediately reported.

Laurie Louise Jones, 95, lived as long as she possibly could without a lot of undue suffering and passed away Tuesday, August 20, 2013. She was kind and thoughtful and loved by everyone. She fed the birds and squirrels outside her patio door and thought fondly of all the cats and dogs in her life...Bonnie, Bouncer, Blue, Buddy, Blackcot, Buzz and the Chihuahuas, Chico, Missy and Isaac. Oh, and Wojo, Ike, Lipertick, Maryanne, Cinderella, Duke, Duchess...the list is endless.
She grew up in Bonnie Acres, Mich. (which isn't even on a map anymore). On June 20, 1941, she married Gerard W. Jones because he made her laugh. They lived in Royal Oak, Mich., had four kids, two boys and two girls, and moved to San Mateo, Calif. in 1960. In 1964 the family moved to Ashland where she spent the rest of her life.
She was a reporter and feature writer for the Ashland Daily Tidings back when Ed Rountree, not Rupert Murdoch, owned the paper. In 1973 she went to work for Ashland High School, starting in the social sciences resource center and continuing on as office manager and Snuff's secretary. She loved making her world beautiful. She preferred people who didn't use bad words or incorrect grammar but always saw the best in others. She loved little babies and toddlers and people who seemed to need help. She once told Jerry Garcia of the Grateful Dead that his mother must be proud of him. She was the shining star at the center of our universe. She was a proud liberal and a lifelong democrat who admired Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton (although Hillary's prose got a tad pedantic at times). She didn't think much of cruelty, inhumanity, capitalist greed, conservatism couched as libertarianism, religious exclusivity or guys like Rush Limbaugh and Bill O'Reilly - although she'd happily share her thoughts with either of them over a cup of tea. She didn't believe in the God of any particular religion but loved the baby Jesus at Christmas and sang the song that goes, "Jesus loves me, this I know." She sang lots of songs nobody ever heard of like "Hello Central, Give me Heaven, because I know my Mother's there." Most crossword puzzles were too easy. The ones she couldn't finish were stupid. She wished everyone would write more letters to each other and send them through the mail so they would show up in a real mailbox. Late at night she listened to KGO. For the past few months she ate mainly tomato soup, Ensure, and fudgesicles but before that there was nothing she liked better than creamy noodles and the occasional fudge and banana sandwich. Around Easter she ate way too many Peeps. She used to take long walks with her grandchildren up into the watershed until too many big houses got in the way. She was a nice lady. Her husband was a nice man. "I know he's a nice man, but what does he do for a living?" "He's an ice man." There was some kind of pragmatic magicalness about her that nobody ever questioned.
She was preceded in death by her husband, Gerard, and everyone else her age. She leaves behind her sister, Paula Anderson; children, Gerard, Nicole, Reilly, and Laurie; grandchildren, Wendi, Myles, Marya, Mandy, Evan, Ian, Bucky, Maggie and Owen; and lots of great-grandchildren, including Jack Murphy who loves to see his name in the newspaper.
There will be a memorial service at 1:00 p.m. Sunday, August 25, 2013 at Pioneer Hall in Lithia Park, followed by inurnment at Scenic Hills Cemetery at 4:00 p.m.
The family asks that in lieu of gifts or flowers, you feed your birds and squirrels, plant pretty flowers and shrubs and trees everywhere, and write real letters to each other every now and again.
That's all she wrote.

Drug arrests follow hotel guest's call to Manchester police
February 06. 2013 12:27PM
MANCHESTER - Two people were arrested early Wednesday morning on drug charges after police went to a Front Street hotel for a report of drug activity taking place.
A guest at La Quinta Hotel, 21 Front St., called 911 just after midnight when he overheard a conversation in a neighboring room, leading him to suspect drug activity was taking place.
Officers met with that hotel guest, who told them he heard people saying they couldn't wake up a woman and that she may have overdosed. Police went to the room where they could hear people talking inside the room before they knocked on the door and announced themselves. No one answered the door and, based on information suggesting there was an emergency medical issue inside, they forced the door open.
Inside were two men and a woman. Police said one of the men, identified as Christopher Adler, 27, of 1 Brandywine Drive, Hooksett, struggled with them when they tried to restrain him. Adler allegedly yelled at the officers, causing a general disturbance in the hotel, and they arrested him for resisting arrest and disorderly conduct.
The woman, identified as Amanda Montplaisir, 25, of 527 Wilson St., did not need medical assistance. However, police said she was found in possession of several Clonazepam and Seroquel pills and was subsequently arrested for possession of a narcotic and possession of a controlled drug.
The third man, who police did not identify, was taken into protective custody because of his apparent impairment. Investigators said they collected evidence indicative of drug activity in the room including needles, spoons, baggies and a scale. Additional information gleaned from the investigation indicated Adler was involved in drug sales, according to a police news release of the incident.
Adler was searched when he was booked at the police station, and police said they found 9.5 grams of suspected heroin on him. He was then charged with possession of a narcotic with the intent to distribute and falsifying physical evidence.

Manchester Fire Department seeking grant for $1 million fire truck
By TED SIEFER
New Hampshire Union Leader
MANCHESTER — The Fire Department is moving forward with plans to seek a nearly $1 million grant to replace one of its aerial trucks, after getting initial approval from an aldermanic committee.
The Committee on Community Improvement on Monday authorized the department to seek the Assistance for Firefighters Grant, which is overseen by Federal Emergency Management Agency. The grant would require a 10 percent match from the city, according to Fire Chief James Burkush.
The chief told the committee that this was lower match ratio than unusual and would likely result in more applicants and a greater competition for the funds.
Burkush said the aerial truck the department wants to replace is 20 years old. He said he considered the vehicle unusable as a back-up truck and that the department would seek to trade in the vehicle and apply that to the cost of the new vehicle, estimated at $1 million.
An aerial truck, also known as a ladder truck, is typically the largest and most expensive apparatus in a fire department's fleet, and can cost as much as $1.3 million.
In response to concerns raised about "strings attached" to the grant, Burkush said this wasn't the case.
"Right now there's absolutely no strings," he said. "We'll bring this back to you if we're awarded the grant, if we're fortunate enough ... We're anticipating a year or so before it would be brought back."
The vote to back the grant was unanimous.

Water damage restoration is all the work required to get a home and its content back to their original standing after becoming wet due to various water events. Water damage restoration in Clinton includes the process from emergency, reconstruction to final cleaning services. Various activities found under water damage restoration include water extraction, appliance repairs, repainting, furniture and belonging cleaning, prevention measures, fixing leaking pipes, etc. Since most insurances might not cover water damage restoration activities, it's important that you try to mitigate the damage as much as possible by getting as many things as you can to safety while you wait for the water damage restoration professionals to arrive. Most of the water damage events are emergencies and will require immediate action. That's why it's more than crucial that you hire professionals as soon as possible to perform such services. Experts respond fast to restoration service calls as they understand that every minute counts. They will utilize advanced techniques and equipment to do the water extraction quickly and determine the extent of the water damage. They will also monitor closely and take note of the drying process to ensure your property is properly dried.
Clinton water damage restoration can be a very expensive venture with the extent of the damage being the significant determinant on how much you'll have to pay for the services. When you experience water events that lead to extensive damage, it's critical that you assess the water damage to have an estimate of what you'll pay. In case the water hasn't affected much of the house and has only affected the carpet and partly the furniture, this might be relatively cheaper to remedy because all that's needed is some simple cleaning services of the carpet and furniture and minor floor repairs if any. If the extent of the water damage involves repairing appliances, repainting, mold remediation, fixing broken bathtubs and so on, the exercise might run into thousands of dollars.
Besides the damaged content, water damage restoration in Clinton will also look at the size of the home which is to get covered during the restoration. On average, it might cost you $24.43 per square foot for a full water damage restoration service. However, this price can be affected by the various scenarios experienced by different homeowners.
The main cause of water damage restoration in Clinton are the unexpected water events that flood the house. Water can come from different outlets which pile up to cause a water flood in the house. Such sources include overflowing bathtubs, broken pipes, broken toilets, damaged washing machine hoses, flash floods, and burst water mains. Most of these water sources can be fixed by doing regular maintenance on your appliances and inspecting your piping systems. Also, to prevent floods from getting into the house, you can install flood resistant windows and doors to fortify your home, especially if you reside in areas prone to floods.
It will all depend on the extent of the water damage. Clinton water damage restoration can take about two to three days to dry out an average home while homes that have been exposed to water for extended periods can take up to five days.
Your presence in the house is determinant on the extent of the damage. If the water damage restoration in Clinton doesn't include reconstruction of the house or doesn't interfere with most parts of the house, you can stay and even sleep in the house.

I was going to announce cheerfully that we have another large collection of sheet music, from a school which is cleaning out an accumulation dating back about seventy years. Before I do that, though, I'd better amplify a few remarks made in the last blog. I hinted there that your old sheet music is not the valuable collectible you may think. I hope you didn't think I was telling you that old sheet music is just wastepaper. My point, as usual, was that not every collectible is valuable.
When people collect, the value is supposed to be an afterthought. Things are collectible because they form part of a distinguishable group: state spoons, Toby mugs, silver dimes, first editions of Francesca Falk Miller. And they are collectible because they're fun to have around: pretty to look at, restful to listen to, entertaining to read. The fact that THAT one is worth fifty cents and THAT one is worth a thousand dollars does not make one prettier than the other.
And sheet music is fun, entertaining, educational, and pretty to look at. I have been out of the music world for some time (to the relief of the music world) so I don't know. Do they have a laptop yet that you can set on the piano and download music to play? Or do you still rely on the same old technology: print on paper? (By the way, not all this music we got in is piano music: we have pieces for recorder trio, guitar, ukulele, trombone, fiddle, and even a few accordion solos so far.)
If I could think of a way to do it, I might make pricing sheet music an entrance exam for working at the Book Fair. Anybody who could go through a stack of pop songs and hymns without starting to hum or whistle at least once would be transferred to folding up shopping bags. The collection runs from "Oh, Promise Me" right up through "You Light Up My Life", so there must be SOMETHING there the volunteer would know. (No, this is not unfair to the younger volunteers: that's one thing the computer has done for us. Thanks to downloadable music, a couple of high school students who have never heard of Ronald Reagan can get into an argument over whether Helen Kane or Welcome Lewis had the better recording of "I Wanna Be Loved By You" in 1929.)
Some people like sheet music for its decorative and historic qualities. It's fun to watch Bing Crosby's face change from 1934 to 1970. It's instructive to see how we interpreted the good old days on the 1935 sheet music for "School-Days" as opposed to the sheet music for the very same song 40 years later. And it says something about American music that, once upon a time, a piece called "Bagpipe Boogie" would not have been laughed off the face of the earth.
So please do collect sheet music. I have a goodly collection to sell–song demo sheets from the forties, multiple copies of hymns for the choir, some of the sappiest love songs ever written during the years when I listened to Top 40 Radio, and all manner of wonders. AND it has all been priced by a humming fool who has been to eBay and found out that most sheet music doesn't sell for much.
Fun at realistic prices. I'd make that our motto if it didn't abbreviate FARP.

IRS targeting: It was not 'diverse'
June 27. 2013 10:44PM
Despite what you might have heard, the IRS was, in fact, singling out Tea Party and limited-government groups for harassment. The U.S. Treasury Department's Inspector General for Tax Administration (TIGTA) confirmed that this week.
Testifying before the U.S. House Ways and Means Committee on Thursday, new IRS director Danny Werfel said the agency targeted "diverse" citizen organizations for additional scrutiny when reviewing applications for 501 (c)(4) tax-exempt status. He noted that the word "progressive" was included in some directives that instructed employees what political terms to "be on the lookout for." But the TIGTA wrote this week to Sander Levin, the ranking Democrat on the committee: "From our audit work, we did not find evidence that the criteria you identified, labeled 'Progressives,' were used by the IRS to select potential political cases during the 2010 to 2012 timeframe we audited," The Washington Times reported.
"In total, 30 percent of the organizations we identified with the words 'progress' or "progressive" in their names were processed as potential political cases. In comparison, our audit found that 100 percent of the tax-exempt applications with Tea Party, Patriots, or 9/12 in their names were processed as potential political cases during the timeframe of our audit," the TIGTA letter concluded. No matter how you look at it, that is evidence of intentional discrimination against limited-government groups.

Bulldogs defeat Wisconsin-Stevens Point, 6-4
The NCAA Division III No. 5-ranked Adrian College men's hockey team was able to bounce back Sunday, defeating non-conference foe Wisconsin-Stevens Point 6-4 at Arrington Ice Arena.
Adrian (10-1) suffered its first loss of the season in the series opener against Stevens Point (8-5-1) on Saturday night.
Four third-period goals in Sunday's finale ensured a Bulldog victory.
"Any win is going to make you feel good," said Adrian coach Ron Fogarty. "We played much better today, and we played within our system. Yesterday, we were just awful in every sense of the word."
The animosity between the two teams from clear from the opening face-off. There were multiple collisions, hits and scraps between the teams, and the officials were forced to step in and break it up on more than one occasion. This led to a multitude of penalties for both teams, but the Bulldogs came out with the advantage, scoring on two power plays in the game.
The first period ended 0-0, but each team had near misses. The Bulldogs controlled the puck early on and kept the puck in the Stevens Point zone, but weren't able to capitalize. The Bulldogs nearly drew first blood at the 13-minute mark, but a fantastic save by Stevens Point goalie Nick Graves kept Adrian off the scoreboard. The Pointers had a chance of their own when a loose puck led a wild scramble in front of the Bulldogs net, but Adrian goalie James Hamby was able to cover it up.
The second period did not go nearly as well for the Bulldogs.
Adrian came out strong, taking five consecutive shots on goal, but couldn't find the back of the net. All Stevens Point needed was a single shot as a slick backhand from Andrew Kolb sent the puck zipping over Hamby's shoulder to give the Pointers a 1-0 lead. The Bulldogs began to play with more ferocity, leading to a trio of penalties during a scramble in front of the Pointers net. As soon as play resumed, the Pointers immediately took a 2-0 lead on Kyle Heck's goal.
The Bulldogs got to digging with Josh Ranalli leading the way.
Ranalli scored with 1:16 left in the period, jamming a rebound through Grave's leg pads and into the back of the net. Now down 2-1, the Bulldogs were given a golden opportunity when a Stevens Point penalty gave them a power play with 40 seconds remaining. Adrian wasted no time as Ranalli scored his second goal of the game and tied it at 2 as the period expired.
"It was a huge swing for us," Fogarty said. "We tied the game up. It's tough to be down 2-0 and make a comeback in the third. Those goals were the turning point in the game for us."
The Bulldogs held all the momentum as the third period began. Less than four minutes into the period, Josh Cousineau scored on a diving shot to put the Bulldogs up 3-2. Adrian's offense dominated the period and took a 4-2 lead after Shelby Gray took a beautiful pass from Shaquille Merasty and buried it in the net. A few minutes later Gray struck again, this time with assists from Cousineau and Zach Graham.
Stevens Point was able to sneak in a goal on a power play after pulling its goalie, giving the Pointers a 6-on-4 advantage. The Pointers pulled their goalie again, but the Bulldogs made them pay as Chris Leone found the empty net from the neutral zone. The Pointers were able to add a final goal, but it was too little, too late as the Bulldogs earned their 10th win of the season.
"That's the kind of performances we're grown to expect at Adrian," Fogarty said. "Anything less than a win is unacceptable. We played good tonight, but there are always things to tweak and areas to improve at."
Ranalli led the way for the Bulldogs, finishing with two goals and two assists. Cousineau had one goal and two assists, while Gray finished with two goals. Graham added three assists for the Bulldogs.
Adrian will travel to face NCAA Division I Alabama-Huntsville for a non-conference game on Friday.
