A death inspires a film OAKLAND (NY Times) — It had been nearly a year since Ryan Coogler last stood on the arrival platform on the upper-level of the Fruitvale Bay Area Rapid Transit Station, where 22-year-old Oscar Grant III, unarmed and physically restrained, was shot in the back by a BART transit officer in the early hours of New Year’s Day 2009.

The last time he was there, in July 2012, Coogler, a 26-year-old first-time feature director, was filming pivotal scenes for “Fruitvale Station,” a heart-wrenching and hauntingly detailed portrayal of Grant’s last day alive. The film, starring Michael B. Jordan (“Friday Night Lights”), took the Grand Jury and Audience Awards in its category at this year’s Sundance Film Festival and received the Prize of the Future at Cannes.

Acquired for distribution by the Weinstein Company for a reported $2.5 million, “Fruitvale Station” will open July 12 in New York, San Francisco and Los Angeles, two weeks before its nationwide release.

“It’s still very unnerving to me, man,” Coogler said, pacing across the same glazed terra-cotta floor tiles, one of them still nicked by a bullet mark, leaning against the same smooth gray concrete walls where Grant spent his final living moments, frightened, angry and confused. It’s also where, amazingly, BART allowed Coogler to film his re-creation of the incident, a chaotic and harrowing sequence that, even though audiences know it’s coming, has left them in tears.

“We shot here for three nights after the station was closed,” Coogler said, “and every night we had to take a moment of silence before we started those four hours of work. Everybody was there with us: BART employees, safety monitors, train drivers, all the cast members and crew. Some of us would pray; others would just keep to themselves. The energy of it hit everybody.”

“It was the hardest thing I’ve done in my life, making this movie,” he added, the emotion evident in his shaky, subdued voice.

“Having to see Oscar die so many times. And having to see the people react to it.

Science does not know its debt to imagination.”

Obama seeks to reassert U.S. role in climate debate WASHINGTON (NY Times) — When President Obama barged into a meeting of leaders from Brazil, China, India and other countries at a climate conference in Copenhagen in December 2009, he managed to extract a last-minute agreement to set a goal to limit the rise in global temperatures.

It was the high-water mark of Obama’s leadership on climate change — even if the deal was less than the Americans or Euro-

peans wanted — but it has been downhill ever since. Preoccupied with other problems, the president largely disappeared from the global debate. Now he is trying to reclaim the spotlight.

Obama’s climate change speech at Georgetown University last week was aimed not just at a domestic audience, but also at foreigners convinced that a balky Congress had killed America’s commitment to tackling the

issue. “Make no mistake,” he said, mopping his brow in the 90-degree heat, “the world still looks to America to lead.”

Obama has done more than talk: he recently reached a deal with President Xi Jinping of China to reduce the use of hydrofluorocarbons, known as HFCs, a particularly potent greenhouse gas. In a meeting long on atmosphere, it was the only achievement that actually cleared the air.

Ruling might also ease the way for same-sex divorces (NY Times) — Adam Cardinal’s wedded life began happily in New Hampshire, where same-sex marriages are legal.

It went sour three years later in Florida, where they are not.

Cardinal, who lives in Fort Lauderdale, separated from his husband several months ago. But the couple cannot get a divorce because, in the eyes of Florida officials, their marriage does not exist.

Returning to New Hampshire to sever the bond is not an option either. Although marrying can be accomplished with a brief visit there, a divorce requires residency in the state for at least a year.

Cardinal cannot remarry — to do so would make him a bigamist in states like Massachusetts or New York that recognize his previous nuptials. And although he and his husband did not combine their assets, the

lack of an official document certifying the end of their marriage carries financial risks.

“I didn’t realize this could potentially be an issue, that we couldn’t divorce when we wanted to,” Cardinal said.

“That was really upsetting.”

The Supreme Court’s ruling last week striking down the federal Defense of Marriage Act has been hailed as a victory for gay couples who wish

to marry. But it has also offered new hope to people like Cardinal who are stuck in a marriage they cannot dissolve.

In a highly mobile society, state bans on same-sex marriage have in many cases made untying the knot far harder than tying it in the first place.

But the language in the court’s decision is broad enough, legal experts say, to provide a basis for challenges to state laws.

Morsi increasingly isolated as Chaos in Middle East grows supporters come under attack as the U.S. focuses on Israel CAIRO (NY Times) — President Mohamed Morsi faced deepening isolation and a new outbreak of armed and lethal political violence on Tuesday as protesters massed to call for his ouster, dozens of supporters were hit by birdshot, the clock ticked on a two-day military ultimatum and high-ranking aides abandoned him. At least seven people were reported killed.

Ultraconservative Islamists also joined the opposition’s call for early presidential elections.

For the third consecutive day, anti-Morsi protesters packed Tahrir Square in central Cairo and filled the street in front of the

main presidential palace while starting a new sit-in in front of a second palace, where Morsi has been working since last week.

They chanted for the end of his rule of the country one year after he rode to victory as Egypt’s first democratically elected president.

At the same time on Tuesday, reinforcing the sense of impending showdown, thousands of Morsi’s Islamist supporters demonstrated in the Cairo suburb of Nasr City and in front of Cairo University.

Armed assailants firing birdshot wounded at least 40 of them at the university and injured 35 others with rocks, police officials said.

WASHINGTON (NY Times) — In Damascus, the Syrian government’s forces are digging in against rebels in a bloody civil war that is swiftly approaching the grim milestone of 100,000 dead. In Cairo, an angry tide of protesters again threatens an Egyptian president.

At the same time, in tranquil Tel Aviv, Secretary of State John Kerry wrapped up a busy round of shuttle diplomacy, laboring to revive a three-decade-old attempt at peace negotiations between the Israelis and Palestinians. He insisted on Sunday that he had made “real progress.”

The new secretary of state’s exertions have been met with the usual mix of hope and skepticism. But with so much of the Middle East still convulsing from the effects of the Arab Spring, Kerry’s efforts raise questions about the Obama administration’s priorities at a time of renewed regional unrest. The Israeli-Palestinian conflict, once a stark symbol and source of grievance in the Arab world, is now almost a sideshow in a Middle East consumed by sectarian strife, economic misery and, in Egypt, a democratically elected leader fighting for legitimacy with many of his people.

––––––––––––– LETTERS TO THE EDITOR ––––––––––––

Fiduciaries need to act, and act now on fossil fuel divestment Editor, On Feb. 27 of this year I attended an investment committee meeting conducted by the Board of Trustees for the UMaine System (UMS). I was there as a student representative from a group called Students for Environmental Awareness and Sustainability (SEAS). In December we began a campaign to pressure the UMS Board of Trustees to divest its endowment of the 6.2 percent it currently has invested in fossil fuels. With the general and financial future of our university in mind, SEAS, along with a broad coalition of staff, faculty, and alumni joined-up with 350.org to start a process that would realign the university’s moral rhetoric with its investment strategy. After all, the UMS mission statement states, “Through integrated teaching, research, and outreach, the University of Maine improves the quality of life for people in Maine and around the world, and promotes responsible stewardship of human, natural, and financial resources.”

Although the investment committee is to be praised for taking-up the issue–the discussion did last for an hour–the results were disappointing. Basically, New England Pension Consultants (NEPC), the UMS fund manager, warned against changing the strategy. Consultant Kelley Reagan stated that although, “there are some investment funds out there today that are already limiting their exposure to fossil fuels ... the space is evolving and is not very researched at this time. Currently, there are no funds reviewed by NEPC that are approved.” see LETTERS page 5

Faking sick and eating hearty James “Spike” Murphy, 55, and his girlfriend, Pam Altori, 57, are in awe of the number of restaurants in the Old Port, all the carts offering hot dogs, crepes and tacos and the colorful food trucks they saw operating on Congress Street. The leather-clad Harley riders are “From Away,” and don’t want their picture in the paper because they both called in sick to their respective jobs with a sudden 48-hour bug that led them here for a therapeutic hit of what ails them.

It wasn’t a score of medical marijuana that motivated them, but the longing for interesting, quality food at a decent price.

“We’re bored with fast food and chain restaurants. Everything tastes the same and even with coupons from the Sunday paper, it ends up being wicked expensive,” Spike said. “We wanted to do something like eat all over Portland, which is sorta famous for food, but do it on 25 bucks a day. Or eat in as many different places as we can that we don’t have at home, and maybe find some cheap local beer, too.”

Not wishing to disclose exactly where their home of crappy food and expensive beer is, Pam said

Natalie Ladd ––––– What It’s Like

they rode about four hours with only a “quick pee break and a few minutes to check phone messages in case one of their A-hole bosses called.” She also told me the eating and drinking strategy they had concocted and I must admit, I was fairly impressed.

“Yeah, we knew we were going to do this, but we just weren’t sure exactly when. We asked a few of our friends who come to Maine where we should go, but they mostly end up in Old Orchard Beach, or Bentley’s Saloon in Arundel or at some place called Chap’s (Chap’s Saloon is located on Route 22 in Buxton and is popular with the biker set). They aren’t into the fancy food thing like we are,” Pam said.

My chance meeting with the two culinary roadsters took place this past Sunday afternoon at

the outside bar/deck in front of the former Comedy Connection.

They were impressed with the fiddle-playing live music of North of Nashville (as was I) and we became acquainted during one of my favorite games, “Where’s the Tourist From?”

The rules of the game are simple and it takes at least three people. Two are players, one is the judge and these roles rotate after each round. The players make five visual observations out loud about a suspected tourist and then says, “I think he/she is from __________.” After hearing each player’s comments, the judge decides which one is closer to the actual place of the tourist’s origin.

The loser then has to go and ask the unsuspecting stranger where they’re from.

Spike and Pam were both way off with their guesses that down home Portland locals were from California or Florida. I, on the other hand, was right on with my educated guesses. Based upon stiletto shoes, trendy maxi-dresses and way too much make-up for a Maine summer afternoon, my tourists were obviously Jersey see LADD page 5

Spike and Pam hit Portland LADD from page 4

Girls and New Yorkers.

As the conversation drifted back to food, Pam told me where they had been and why.

“When we first got here we went to Duck Fat for fries because I read about it in some magazine. We had a large with Thai-chili mayo and, wow, were they good. We wanted to go to Eventide for oysters, but it was kinda expensive and crowded so we went to Tandoor for Indian food because we don’t have Indian food in our town.

I got lamb saag and Spike had some hot curry thing he loved. The food was good but the service kinda sucked (spoken with true food critic honesty),” she continued. “I wanted to go to The Little Tap House but there wasn’t any place to park the bike so we went out to the Great Lost Bear and tasted a bunch of stuff. Spike was in a bad mood because he was driving and had to knock off. We also ate at Nosh and had a crazy burger and had Mediterranean nachos at Shay’s.”

New to social media deals and offers, the pair bought a Groupon to the Grille Room for their “get-dressedup” night and were surprised they not only couldn’t just walk in, but couldn’t get a reservation at all during their window of opportunity. Explaining more than 1,000 of the on-line deals had been sold, I further pressed them, playing “Where’s the Tourist from?” all by myself, but to no avail.

As the afternoon wore on and the music ended, my new friends were

trying to decide between my suggestion of Local 188 for house paella; the suggestion of my companion for Blue Spoon (I nixed it due to reservation restraints); the suggestion of the guy next to us for trivia night and wings at Samuel’s; and their own inclination to try Otto’s mashed potato pizza.

I don’t have any idea where Spike and Pam ended up for their Portland swan song meal. They may still need to take two aspirin, drink lots of water and get plenty of rest, but I’m willing to bet they were fully cured of the 48-hour, four-day-weekend flu by the time they saddled up and zoomed off to who knows where.

The Down Low: I’m not one to be a rat fink, but I was shocked to see two people I know from the restaurant circuit sharing their frosty adult beverages with the sweet young things they were accompanied by this past weekend. Obviously, I’m jealous over the sweet and young part, but you guys know better. That very fun place could lose their license, incur serious fines, and if shut down, would really suck for the people who work there. If you must, get the mini-Barbies hammered in the privacy of your own homes and smarten up.

Fossil fuels now could become ‘stranded assets’ LETTERS from page 4

On June 24, the Washington Post reported an average drop of 8.9% in coal shares (and this was before Obama’s recent climate change speech).

Therefore, NEPC better step-up its research as one of its larger clients, i.e. the UMaine System, is invested in coal companies like Peabody Energy, whose shares lost 7.2%. Obviously, it is high-time for the UMS and other large Maine institutions to rethink their investment strategies. As the federal government finally begins to implement long-awaited regulations on greenhouse gas emissions and the Chinese appetite for coal weakens, the value of coal stocks will decrease.

Though fossil fuels have been a reliable investment for the past century, they now run the risk of becoming “stranded assets,” inflating an imminent carbon bubble, which could sabotage the vital funds the UMS has wrapped up these in risky investments.

In the February meeting, Karl W. Turner, a trustee hailing from Cumberland, explicitly stated that, “we have an obligation from a fiduciary standpoint to maximize the returns on the monies that are under our purview.” Jean Dan, a representative from the University of Maine School of Law Foundation said, “When you are a fiduciary, and this board is a fiduciary,

you have to be like a parent and you have to examine every little aspect of what you are doing. Can we look at managers who don’t have fossil fuels?

We don’t know if they’re going to be any good, they may not make the cut.”

With these two conservative perspectives in mind, it can hardly be said that coal is a sound fiduciary investment — a 7.2 percent loss shouldn’t be expected to “make the cut.”

Finally, institutional investors like the UMS need to realize that fossil fuel investments are not a sustainably sound financial decision. Sure, coal may bounce back temporarily in the event of a natural gas explosion or another devastating oil rig spill, but in the near future these assets will eventually become useless. This is not to mention the social and environmental implications that go along with a public university that claims to care about improving, “the quality of life for people in Maine and around the world.” Regardless of one’s political or social opinions, it’s all too apparent that, from a fiduciary perspective, the UMS needs to divest the 6.2 percent of its endowment that is allocated to fossil fuels and reinvest those funds in something fiscally sound and environmentally sustainable.

Obama administration to delay health law requirement until 2015

By Jackie Calmes THE NEW YORK TIMES

WASHINGTON — The Obama administration announced on Tuesday that it would delay for a year, until 2015, the Affordable Care Act mandate that employers provide coverage for their workers or pay penalties, responding to business complaints and postponing the effective date beyond next year’s midterm elections.

“We have heard concerns about the complexity of the requirements and the need for more time to implement them effectively,” Mark J. Mazur, an assistant Treasury secretary, wrote on the department’s Web site in disclosing the delay. “We recognize that the vast majority of businesses that will need to do this reporting already provide health insurance to their workers, and we want to make sure it is easy for others to do so.”

Under the 2010 law, employers of more than 50 full-time employees were required to provide them with health insurance starting next year or face fines. Numerous reports had suggested that some companies with payrolls at or just over that size were complaining that they would have to cut some jobs or switch some full-time workers to part-time employment.

The change does not affect other central provisions of the law, in particular those establishing

health care marketplaces in the states — known as exchanges — where individual Americans without health insurance can shop from a menu of insurance policies. Under those provisions, subsidies are available for lower-income individuals who qualify.

However, it will be difficult for officials running the exchanges to know who is entitled to subsidies if they are not able to confirm whether employers are offering insurance to their employees. Enrollment in the exchanges is to begin on Oct. 1, and they are to take effect on Jan. 1.

Much of the administration’s public effort, especially at the Department of Health and Human Services, has been directed toward spreading the word to uninsured Americans, especially younger and healthier individuals whose participation is needed to help keep down the price of premiums for everyone else. About 15 percent of Americans are uninsured, so most individuals are unaffected, at least initially.

Behind the scenes, however, the administration has been fielding questions and criticism from businesses about the mandated reporting requirements — especially the Treasury Department, which has responsibility, given its oversight of the nation’s tax reporting system.

Mr. Mazur wrote that the one-year delay “will allow us to consider ways to simplify the new

reporting requirements consistent with the law.” He added, “Second, it will provide time to adapt health coverage and reporting systems while employers are moving toward making health coverage affordable and accessible for their employees.”

Within the next week, he added, the Treasury will issue official guidance to insurers, self-insuring employers and other parties that provide health coverage. Formal rules will be proposed later this summer, he added.

In the meantime, Mr. Mazur said, the administration will encourage employers to comply with the law’s reporting provisions in 2014, as originally mandated.

In a separate posting on the White House Web site, President Obama’s senior adviser and liaison to the business community, Valerie Jarrett, emphasized that the health insurance exchanges were on schedule — though that is in dispute, especially in states with Republican-led governments that are resisting the health care law.

“We are on target to open the health insurance marketplace on Oct. 1 where small businesses and ordinary Americans will be able to go to one place to learn about their coverage options and make side-by-side comparisons of each plan’s price and benefits before they make their decision,” Ms. Jarrett wrote.

Carroll comes back to Maine to speak about his new novel, which chronicles his “eye-opening —and at times hilarious — journey across America to find and explore unmarked historic sites where extraor-

dinary moments occurred and remarkable individuals once lived.”

Sparking the idea for this book was Carroll’s visit to the spot where Abraham Lincoln’s son was saved by the brother of Lincoln’s assassin, event organizers noted. Carroll wondered, “How many other unmarked places are there where intriguing events have unfolded and that we walk past every day, not Carroll realizing their significance?”

Carroll is an American author, editor, activist and historian. He is best known as the author of the 1999 New York Times bestselling Letters of a Nation: A Collection of Extraordinary American Letters and the 2001 New York Times best-selling book “War Letters: Extraordinary Correspondence from American Wars,” which was later turned into an episode of the television program American Experience.

Batter up! Maine waffle entrepreneur expands into Portland

By David Carkhuff THE PORTLAND DAILY SUN

A Maine waffle shop whose owner has ambitions to launch a national chain has taken an important step in that direction.

Wannawaf Inc. opened last Friday in Portland, filling a spot on Monument Square formerly inhabited by Cobblestones.

Anya Arsenault, founder and CEO of Wannawaf Inc., said she opened in Boothbay in 2003 with seasonal hours but dreamed of expanding into Portland.

“I’ve always been an entrepreneur, it’s all I’ve ever wanted to do,” Arsenault said, noting that the concept came about through serendipity. “It was really by accident, I was just

having a conversation with my uncle one day, about what would be a cool business to start, and he said, ‘Waffle ice cream sandwiches just like they do on Coney Island, and they sell well,’ and I said, ‘Yeah, I would do that, but I would make all kinds of sauces and it would be more complicated.’”

Now, Wannawaf features breakfast waffles, desserts and hearty meals predicated on the battery treat.

Arsenault said she spent the winter planning the Portland opening.

“We do have a market that has expanded beyond Boothbay Harbor, so we have a lot of people coming up from Portland to Boothbay Harbor,” she said, calling the expansion a “logical next step in the process.”

Arsenault said she has lived in Maine for 12 years and is originally from Minnesota,. She pursued an education in restaurant management.

Her dad, “always a big fan of mine,” suggested she use her own name as part of her business title.

“I was like, ‘No, no, it’s going to be a

national chain,’” Arsenault said.

A simple concept title seemed to fit better.

“Do you know you ‘want a waffle?’” became the underlying theme, she said.

Jared Lemieux, of Portland, general manager for the Portland store, said the location at 15 Monument Square “is a great spot, there’s a lot of walk-in traffic.”

“You can come in breakfast, lunch and dinner, or even late nights, we’re open Fridays and Saturdays until 2.

We’re hoping to get the bar crowd to come out and try us out. We’re in the process of creating a new waffle that’s kind of a group waffle that’s called the ‘hangover waffle.’” he said.

The name of that waffle creation “is still under construction,” Lemieux said, but expect something with bacon and sausage cooked into it.

The restaurant is open 8 a.m. to 10 p.m. Sunday-Thursday; 8 a.m. to 2 a.m. Friday and Saturday. For more information, visit http://wannawaf. com.

Groups turn to Maine lobster to win support for climate change initiatives

By Craig Lyons THE PORTLAND DAILY SUN

A new soldier has been enlisted to fight climate change: the Maine lobster.

An informational campaign that launched Tuesday is using Maine’s favorite crustaceans as the poster child to show the impact of excessive carbon emissions on the world’s oceans. The “Help Maine Lobsters Stay Cool” campaign is being spearheaded by the Natural Resources Council of Maine, with support from the Maine Lobster Promotions Council, the Maine Restaurant Association, the National Wildlife Federation, the University of Maine and lobster-related businesses.

The campaign is designed to remind people about how important lobsters are to Maine’s economy, said Emmie Theberge, clean energy outreach coordinator for the Natural Resources Council of Maine, and what the oceandwellers mean to the state’s culture and identity. She said climate change, manifested through ocean warming and acidification, threatens Maine’s lobster.

“It is therefore vital that Mainers come together to support national efforts to reduce carbon pollution while it is still possible to reduce this threat significantly,” she said.

The effects of climate change resulting from carbon emissions include not only warming temperatures in the air and water, Theberge said, but damaging ocean habitats and wildlife. She said carbon pollution isn’t just warming the atmosphere but being absorbed into the water — which higher acid levels could damage sea creatures with calcium shells, like lobsters.

President Obama last week rolled out his policy plans to address climate change, which includes limiting carbon emissions, investing in energy efficiency measures and supporting renewable energy development.

Theberge said power plants create 40 percent of the carbon pollution, and that’s why it’s important to support the president’s policies to cut those emissions.

Rick Wahle, a professor at the University of Maine Darling Marine Center, said lobsters are on two sides of the climate change issue. In southern New England, lobster populations are suffering from warm temperatures and diseases, he said, but northern New England has benefited from a growth in numbers because of

warming temperatures that are more favorable for lobsters.

“I don’t want to paint too rosy a picture for the Gulf of Maine,” he said, because enemies of the lobster population, whether new predators, biological stresses or diseases, could come into play.

Carbon emissions are directly linked to rising ocean temperatures because of the greenhouse gas effect, Wahle said, but more study is needed to see how to deal with acidification of the water.

“The emissions choices that we make now will effect how fast climate change will happen,” he said.

John Ready, a co-owner of Ready Seafood Co., said the effects of warming ocean temperatures on lobsters is already being seen in the Gulf of Maine, and if the trend continues, the

crustaceans could seek out deeper, colder water or migrate east. He said it’s in the best interest of fisherman, harvesters, sellers and processors to maintain a healthy environment for Maine’s lobsters. “... Many Mainers who make living from sea have their futures at stake,” said Richard Grotton, executive director of the Maine Restaurant Association. He said Maine has a tourism based economy, and the health of the lobster population affects retailers, fisherman, restaurants and the whole hospitality industry.

Theberge said climate change is beginning to impact Maine, and the state loves and depends on lobsters.

“We need to take further action to reduce carbon pollution,” she said.

Soggy June giving way to mostly dry Fourth

By David Carkhuff THE PORTLAND DAILY SUN

Last year, thunderclouds and heavy rain nixed Portland’s Fourth of July celebration, forcing a delay to the festivities.

This year, the forecast is more promising.

“Thursday should be partly cloudy with the chance of afternoon thunderstorms but mostly a nice night for the Fourth,” said National Weather Service meteorologist Margaret Curtis.

In Portland, the Patriotic Pops concert for Independence Day is scheduled to begin at 7:40 p.m.

Thursday and will be broadcast live on WHOM 94.9PM. The concert will run throughout the fireworks display which will begin at approximately 9:20 p.m., the city reported. A rain date, if one is needed, is scheduled for Friday, July 5. The public can visit july4thportland.org for the most up to date information or call the city’s hotline at 756-8130 to check on cancellations.

“We have a little bit of a backdoor cold front pushing through,” Curtis said, explaining the early-partof-the-week doldrums.

Wednesday should mark the end of drizzle, with mostly cloudy conditions and highs in the upper 70s, she said. With a 20 percent chance of showers on Thursday, Curtis said the Fourth of July should weather any thundershowers.

The weekend looks to be dry with highs in the upper 80s, she said.

The first day of July came in damp, with 1.17 inches of rain, nearly a third of the normal rainfall for an entire month of July in a typical year, Curtis said. Average rainfall for July in Portland is 3.61 inches. Since June 1, 8.49 inches of rain have fallen, Curtis said. The 7.32 inches of rain that fell in June made the month 3.53 inches above normal, making it the seventh wettest June on record, she said.

“For the month of July, we can already guarantee that it’s not going to be the driest July on record,” Curtis said.

The soggy June prompted the city of Westbrook on Saturday, June 29 to close public access to the city’s Presumpscot River ramps and floats and suspend kayak rentals. City officials encouraged people to stay out of the river due to high flow conditions. The closure will be in effect until flows go below 120,000 cubic feet per second, when the public will be notified, according to a city posting.

Westbrook announced the May 10 installation of three recreational ramps and floats on the Presumpscot River at the end of Ash Street – in the morthwest corner of Riverbank Park – and at the Brown Street Community Garden near Cottage Place. Custom Float Services of Portland installed the ramps and floats. They were paid for through the Westbrook Environmental Improvement Corporation and the Westbrook Recreation and Conservation Commission.

Bill Baker, assistant city administrator, issued a memo indicating that river-access alerts would come from Sappi Fine Paper North America, which is collaborating with the city of Westbrook in studying opportunities for the recreational and economic

“As the flows get in to the 130,000 CFS range the current becomes too strong to swim against and Sappi as a federal licensee feels like they have an obligation to warn people away from the river,” Baker wrote in the memo, acknowledging that “the higher the flows the more appealing the paddling is for serious paddlers and licensed guides.” But Baker said the city will caution the public “that flows make entering the river unsafe and the signs will come down when flows come down.”

Distracted driving blamed for Westbrook truck crash

By David Carkhuff THE PORTLAND DAILY SUN

Westbrook police said a truck driver reaching for a dropped cell phone lost control of a box truck and veered into a portable sign and then crashed into a utility pole on Main Street shortly before 1 p.m. Tuesday.

Nobody was seriously hurt in the crash, police said, but the singlevehicle crash forced traffic to detour around the section of Main Street next to Riverbank Park.

The truck from BIOSafe Environmental of Westbrook plowed through the portable sign, which was located in a parking space, and crashed into the power pole, knocking electric lines to the ground, according to the Westbrook Police Department.

The driver of the truck was cited for operating after suspension and

distracted driving, according to Captain Michael Nugent. The name of the driver was not available at press time.

Central Maine Power responded. A section of Main Street was closed to traffic while crews responded.

Following the crash, Westbrook Police Department posted photos and issued the following reminder on Facebook: “STAY FOCUSED ON YOUR SAFE DRIVING! The cause of this Main Street accident this afternoon wasn’t the rain or poor visibility.

A distracted driver was reaching for a dropped cell phone with disasterous results! Luckily nobody was seriously injured.”

Under Maine law, distracted driving is prohibited, per a law passed in 2009. In 2011, the Maine Legislature enacted a ban on texting while driving.

Portland police remind residents that fireworks are not allowed in city limits Daily Sun Staff Report (Editor’s note: The following story appeared in The Sun’s online edition on Tuesday but was not available in print form due to a press malfunction that prevented a print edition from being published. We are rerunning the story in today’s print and online editions.)

With the Fourth of July looming, Portland officers are going to be keeping an eye to the sky.

The Portland Police Department is reminding residents that the possession and use of fireworks in the city limits is illegal, even though it’s allowed in other parts of Maine. Chief Michael Sauschuck said the Fourth of July is the beginning for people using fireworks in the city and

he thinks it will be a busy few months.

When the Legislature lifted the ban on fireworks, Sauschuck said the number of calls exploded.

“We certainly had a sharp increase in fireworks usage,” he said, and officers are expecting to see calls at the same level as last year.

In the inaugural year of legalized fireworks in Maine, the Portland Police Department received 90 fireworks-related calls on July 4, 2012, according to the department, and fireworks calls accounted for 29 percent of the total number of calls for service logged that day. The department received 309 calls for service.

The number of fireworksrelated calls showed a sharp increase from 2011.

The department received four calls for service that were fireworks-related on July 4, 2011, out of a total of 229 calls.

From January to July 2012, the department received 299 fireworks calls, while in 2011 they received 32 fireworks-related calls during the whole year.

The City Council passed a ban on consumer fireworks in 2011 after the Legislature passed a law that legalized the sale and possession of most commercial-grade fireworks in Maine. Anyone who violates the city’s ordinance could receive a fine of at least $200.

With large events like the Fourth of July, Sauschuck said officers will be focusing a lot of attention on the events, and fireworks issues are a component of that.

fun changes that.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). A floating feeling dominates your consciousness today.

The present seems everlasting when you’re fully in it, but one thought later, and it seems like something you can’t possibly hold on to.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Distance might make the heart grow fonder, but silence only hardens it. An opportunity to patch things up with a loved one who’s been long out of touch should be seized at once.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You’ll root for the underdog. You see how sometimes there are too many factors beyond a person’s control acting against their achievement. Your assistance and cheerleading will help give someone a fair shot.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (July 3). To have compassion for others you have to have it for yourself -- and you will to a much greater degree. This frees up energy in you. In August, you’ll try new things and connect with different people. In September, territorial instincts kick in, and you’ll establish personal boundaries.

December and March are financially stellar.

Aries and Leo people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 6, 49, 47, 21 and 8.

by Paul Gilligan

ARIES (March 21-April 19). When the past starts to feel closer than it actually is and memories seem to be holding you back, avoid the side view mirror and step on the gas.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Recent heartaches and emotional double-vision have been a shock to your system, and now you’re trying to ram your way through. Instead, slow down, take a deep breath, rest and regenerate.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Did you choose this life, or did it choose you? Either way, you see it as your responsibility and take as much control of it as you possibly can.

You’ll make an adjustment tonight that will help you create what you want.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). A mysterious person seen from afar or engaged only by chance isn’t at all mysterious once you get to know him or her. You might be that mysterious person to someone else, as well.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You’re a matchmaker for more than love relationships. Today you naturally will see how people might connect and how they need one another. You’ll bridge groups of people, making it easier for them to know one another.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). A distant friend or relative is in the picture again, and you might feel resentful that they haven’t been in the picture consistently all along. But everyone inhabits his or her own picture. Compassion brings things into proper focus.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Those who worked hard to get where they are sometimes think they are entitled to better treatment, but not you. You believe all people are equal regardless of their station in life, and you treat everyone the same.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). A long day feels longer when it seems that all you do goes unrecognized or unappreciated. Don’t be afraid to speak up for yourself when the sun goes down and gently remind others of the hard work you put in.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). It’s hard to say what you value more now: time alone or time with loved ones. Both feel in short supply, as too much of your life seems to be devoted to other responsibilities. But today’s

––––––– ALMANAC ––––––– Today is Wednesday, July 3, the 184th day of 2013. There are 181 days left in the year.

Today’s Highlight in History: On July 3, 1863, the three-day Civil War Battle of Gettysburg in Pennsylvania ended in a major victory for the North as Confederate troops failed to breach Union positions during an assault known as Pickett’s Charge.

On this date: In 1608, the city of Quebec was founded by Samuel de Champlain.

In 1775, Gen. George Washington took command of the Continental Army at Cambridge, Mass.

In 1890, Idaho became the 43rd state of the Union.

In 1898, the U.S. Navy defeated a Spanish fleet outside Santiago Bay in Cuba during the Spanish-American War. In 1913, during a 50th anniversary reunion at Gettysburg, Pa., Civil War veterans re-enacted Pickett’s Charge, which ended with embraces and handshakes between the former enemies.

In 1938, President Franklin D. Roosevelt marked the 75th anniversary of the Battle of Gettysburg by dedicating the Eternal Light Peace Memorial.

In 1944, during World War II, Soviet forces recaptured Minsk.

In 1950, the first carrier strikes of the Korean War took place as the USS Valley Forge and the HMS Triumph sent fighter planes against North Korean targets.

In 1962, French President Charles de Gaulle signed an agreement recognizing Algeria as an independent state after 132 years of French rule.

In 1971, singer Jim Morrison of The Doors died in Paris at age 27.

In 1988, the USS Vincennes shot down an Iran Air jetliner over the Persian Gulf, killing all 290 people aboard.

In 1993, Hall of Fame pitcher Don Drysdale died in Montreal, Quebec, Canada, at age 56.

Comedian “Curly Joe” DeRita, the sixth member of the Three Stooges, died in Woodland Hills, Calif., at age 83.

Ten years ago: The U.S. put a $25 million bounty on Saddam Hussein, and $15 million apiece for his two sons. (The $30 million reward for Odai and Qusai Hussein went to a tipster whose information led U.S. troops to their hideout, where the brothers were killed in a gunbattle.)

Five years ago: The Pentagon announced it had extended the tour of 2,200 Marines in Afghanistan, after insisting for months the unit would come home on time. Venus and Serena Williams won in straight sets to set up their third all-sister Wimbledon final and seventh Grand Slam championship matchup. Larry Harmon, who turned Bozo the Clown into a show business staple, died in Los Angeles at age 83.

One year ago: A federal judge in Amarillo, Texas, found Clayton F. Osbon, a JetBlue Airways pilot who’d left the cockpit during a flight and screamed about religion and terrorists, not guilty by reason of insanity of interfering with a flight crew. Andy Griffith, 86, who made homespun American Southern wisdom his trademark as the wise sheriff in “The Andy Griffith Show,” died at his North Carolina home.

Dear Annie: “Trouble in Hubbard” is the executor of her mother’s estate. She is concerned that one grandson has borrowed a great deal of money, and she wants to deduct that amount from his inheritance after Grandma dies.

As an executor of an estate (or trustee of a trust), “Trouble” has no choice but to divide and distribute Grandma’s will or trust the way it’s written upon her death. Since debts owed Grandma prior to her death are legitimate assets of the estate, this would require adjusting a beneficiary’s share of distributions. To do otherwise opens the executor or trustee to lawsuits from the other beneficiaries. If it contributes to family strife, “Trouble” should resign in favor of appointing a bank or licensed trust company as executor. -- Kailua, Hawaii

Dear Annie: I’ve been friends with “Jane” and “Carol” since college. Unfortunately, since her mom died well over a decade ago, Jane has become a hermit. She is distant, and whenever we make plans, she makes an excuse at the very last minute to cancel on us. We’re frustrated.

While I can sympathize with her terrible loss, I feel she needs to move on and start living again. She can’t hide in her room forever. Carol and I are not sure how to approach this.

We want to be sensitive to Jane’s feelings but at the same time get her to realize that she has friends and family who love her and want to spend time with her. What should we do? -- Frustrated Friends Dear Friends: If Jane has been so severely depressed about her mother’s death for more than a decade, she needs professional help. She is stuck. Tell her you are worried about her, and suggest she look into counseling to help her get her life back on track. She also can find a Motherless Daughters support group through hopeedelman.com.

Dear Annie: After 56 years of marriage, our father passed away and left my mother alone for the first time in her life.

Four years after Dad died, Mom suffered a bout of meningitis. While she has recovered completely, she is convinced that she is bedridden. I moved back home to take care of her because no one else would. My younger sister lives in the house with us, but does her own thing.

The problem is, four other siblings live in the same city, and three are retired. Yet no one helps look after Mom but me. Mom has a sharp tongue, but her memory is shot. Even when she is insulting, she doesn’t remember it.

Wegman takes MECA series behind the viewfinder

By Timothy Gillis

SPECIAL TO THE PORTLAND DAILY SUN

A slate of summer lectures has started at the Maine College of Art, with one of the biggest names in photography kicking off the talks.

William Wegman, whose iconic pictures of his Weimaraners have fascinated viewers for decades, spoke at the Osher Hall of MECA. A packed audience took in slides and descriptions of the photographer’s life in the darkroom arts.

An internationally known New York artist and author of several books for children, Wegman probably surprised quite a few when he said that he has never used digital photography. All those shots of dressed-up dogs are the result of patient posing.

Wegman, who received his BFA from Massachusetts College of Art in 1965 and his MFA from University of Illinois in 1967, has been called “one of the most important artists to emerge from the heady times of the late 1960s” by the New York Times.

The city slicker has also long been influenced by the landscape of Maine, spending his summers in the Rangeley Lakes region.

The first photograph he created during his MFA work depicts a hand picking up a slice of salami from a plate full of it, with salami seeds dotted on the hungry hand.

That type of creative vision has always been his hallmark. During his college days, he found himself having to distinguish his work from a sea of wouldbe artists.

“Grad schools were flooded with men who didn’t want to get drafted,” he said “There were a lot of people who didn’t belong and were using it as a kind of hideaway.”

Wegman majored in painting but was frustrated by the requirement that he paint. He dabbled in it, but photography quickly became his main medium, despite its sometimes-scary propositions.

“Another thing about photography is that it kind of freezes you in a date and time and that can be kind of spooky,” he said.

He started taking photos of his dog, Man Ray, and learned to print and develop from a student of his.

Wegman never took a print class, he said. Success almost ruined him early on.

“My work sort of eroded,” he said. “What happened was I got a Guggenheim (fellowship).” That artistic support was soon buoyed up by other, commercial offers.

In 1979, he was asked by Polaroid to experiment with a 20x24 large format camera that had just been invented.

“I didn’t do color or larger pictures than 11x14. I didn’t want to compete with painting or the wall,” he said.

Known mostly for his work depicting his dogs, he has also met with success in video production for “Saturday Night Live,” Nickelodeon and “Sesame Street.” His work has been exhibited around the world, in such places as France, Sweden, Japan, Korea, and Spain.

“Towards the end of Man Ray’s life, I was imagining what would be his last picture,” he said. “Here is one called Bad Dog that envisions Man Ray in a fireplace, burning in hell.”

He also showed a slide of him in a canoe without a paddle. “I was always rehearsing what would happen with him,” Wegman said.

Faye Ray, a.k.a Cinnamon Girl, was his next dog.

He didn’t want to take her picture, at first, but Polaroid came calling again.

“I have this aversion to anthropomorphism. It’s a horrible thing to dress a dog up, but when I do it, it’s okay,” he said. Cinnamon Girl was very obedient.

“When I would say ‘Ready Faye?’ the dog would look into the lens,” he said.

His close friend, the Gimbels of Rangeley, loaned him an amphibious car for a parody of the Hardy Boys called the Hardly boys. “They’re not boys; they’re girls and dogs,” he said of the dogs in the car/ boat on Rangeley Lake.

Later on, he did return to painting, but never loved the medium. He stopped painting in 1965, and started again in 1985. A reviewer of his painting said, “It looks like you put art history in a blender.”

He shared slides of several of his paintings with the MECA crowd, quipping in wry, self-deprecation, “These paintings are really good, but hard to photograph so you can’t see how good they are.”

He finished the lecture with three comical videos he created in the 1970s. One especially funny one had him working with one of his dogs on a spelling lesson. The dog spelled “bark” and “out” correctly, but not “beach.”

The lecture was a succinct hour long, and as with all of the talks in the summer series, was free and open to the public. Wegman said he liked MECA’s format.

“At a show in Arles, France, they showed three hours of slides. It made me want to quit and no longer talk about adorable dog photos,” he said.

During the Q and A after the talk, someone asked about Maine’s impact on his work.

“Coming to Maine was one of the things that sort of saved my life,” he said. “Coming up here, the dogs were so happy. They love it in the country.”

They portray Company A of the 3rd Maine, a regiment recruited early in the War from several communities of Maine’s Kennebec River Valley. The regiment was therefore known as the ‘Kennebec Regiment.’ Company A was formed from a Bath, Maine militia unit called the Bath City Grays, which mustered into federal service on June 4, 1861.

The Maine Rebels are a reenacting group that portrays the 15th Alabama Infantry, Company G, with most of its members in Maine. The 15th Alabama is the regiment that fought the 20th Maine Infantry on the slopes of Little Round Top in the town of Gettysburg, Pennsylvania.
