First: Paul Sabin’s stupid op-ed in The New York Times Saturday shows how intellectually bankrupt and pusillanimous the “newspaper of record” has become, in step with the depraved and decadent empire whose record-keeper it supposedly pretends to be.

Sabin is flame-keeper for the theories of the late cornucopian demi-god Julian Simon, a business school professor whose great idea stokes the wishful thinking that has overtaken a class of American leaders who ought to know better, and spread through the public they serve like a fungal infection of the brain.

Time for Congress to step up on Syria Many Americans have been contemplating the proper response to the use of chemical weapons in Syria one week ago.

President Obama announced his intention to seek the support of Congress representing the American people before acting as Commander in Chief to order a military response.

A range of responses has cascaded from every stripe of the political rainbow and served to underscore how difficult the position of the United Stares is in the world today. Our nation has become the superpower that the entire world expects will come to its aid and somehow protect it from evil, an impossible task.

The current situation illustrates how much the world has changed since the Constitution was crafted two hundred and twenty-six years ago. We have changed from a culture that feared a standing army and the power of monarchy to the degree that it put the control of the military in civilian hands and made explicit that a declaration of war must be ordered by the people’s

The complexity of our military extension reaches into every remote village and mountain valley of the globe. The intricate machinations of experts to protect the interests of the American economy have twisted our government into pretzel logic.

We have spent and continue to spend vast amounts of our nation’s treasure on military hardware and the most expensive standing army the world has ever seen and have sent all manners of destructive weapons to repulsive dictatorial regimes hoping they would use them to stabilize their regions, make their people

open markets for our products. We as a nation have dropped millions of tons of explosives, invented and distributed millions of land mines, and deployed predator drones to threaten those that we perceive wish us harm.

How many trillions of dollars have been spent on covert military operations and preparedness in the name of national security since the last Congressional Declaration of War in 1941? How many wounded and injured veterans have served and returned to this country with altered lives in the pursuit of our interests abroad whatever they might have been? While we ask the world to join us in punishing Assad, do we ignore the repressive military coup in Egypt and continue to provide billions of dollars of military aid to its rulers? Is Pakistan an ally in the military adventure in Afghanistan? How do we justify the continued support of Israel’s nuclear arsenal while drawing a red line against Iran’s pursuit of nuclear power?

The proposed spanking was a bad idea from the start KUNSTLER from page 4

want to face the realities of peak resources and climate change, but it guarantees a harsher economic outcome since the wishful public will do nothing to prepare for the very different terms of daily living that are already shoving them into hardship and desperation.

Julian Simon, who died in 1998, is best remembered now for a bet he made in 1980 with biologist Paul Ehrlich, author of The Population Bomb.

The bet was supposed to determine whether the converging difficulties of our time should be taken seriously. The two men picked a menu of commodity metals and bet whether the price would rise or fall by 1990. Ehrlich bet that scarcity would drive the price up; Simon bet that they would go down.

Simon won the bet only for temporary circumstantial reasons, namely that the last great discoveries of cheap, easy-to-get oil ramped into full production by the mid-1980s and pushed a final orgy of global industrial development until 2008, when things really started falling apart. By then, Julian Simon has been dead for a decade.

Simon’s idea lives on in the wishful thinking around shale oil and gas, which have led the American public and their leaders to believe that we’re in an “energy renaissance” that will lead to “energy independence.” Just the other day, Senator John McCain made the inexcusably dumb remark that the U.S. is now a net oil exporter. This is a man who ran for president five years ago, talking completely out of his ass.

Now oil is well over $100 a barrel, a price that the American economy, as currently configured, cannot endure. That price is crushing the kind of activity we have depended on lately: the house-building and lending rackets associated with the creation of suburban sprawl. And $100 oil is especially corrosive to the problems of capital formation, because without more racket-driven “growth,” we can neither generate new credit, nor pay the interest on old credit.

We’ve used accounting fraud in banking and gov-

ernment to cover up this failed equation. But it has only led to greater deformities in markets and a general fiasco in the management of money all around the world, and it is spinning out of control right now.

If these conditions were to crash the global economy and the price of everything fell in a deflationary depression, with oil back under $60 a barrel — then it would not pay enough to frack the shale rock, or drill miles under the ocean, or do any of the very expensive operations of what’s called unconventional oil recovery.

For The New York Times to keep hauling out the sorry-ass figure of Julian Simon to “prove” a specious and dangerous point surely shows the limits of one thing: intelligence in the media. Because of that and other related failures in the transmission of ideas, this is now a nation that cannot construct a coherent narrative about what is happening to it.

Now, second: Syria. The world has pretty much lined up against President Obama’s proposal to issue a cruise missile spanking to Syria for supposedly gassing its own citizens. Nobody thinks this is a good idea, some for reasons of tactical advantage and some on the idea’s basic merit, or lack of.

Mr. Obama pulled his punch over a week ago by standing down and taking the issue to Congress for approval. I’m convinced he did that because he would have been impeached for launching an overt act of war — despite similar actions by his recent predecessors.

The proposed spanking was a bad idea from the start. There was no visible threat to the national interest from Syria’s bad behavior within its own borders. The gas attack was a terrible act of depravity, but firing missiles into Syria wasn’t going to bring back the dead. It was only going to cause more death. There’s no advantage to the U.S. for supporting either side in the Syrian civil war. The spread or deepening of any kind of disorder in that region will threaten a critical portion of America’s oil imports.

In the background of this, things are becoming unstuck in the seriously ill and constipated realm of international banking. The aforementioned deformi-

Now oil is well over $100 a barrel, a price that the American economy, as currently configured, cannot endure. ties caused by central bank interventions, market manipulations, Too Big To Fail carry-trade rackets, and misreporting of financial data have begun to shred currencies in nations at the margin (India, Brazil, Indonesia) and that illness may prove contagious. The global economy depends on some basic faith that major financial institutions are sound, and that they trade in sound instruments that represent real wealth. That is all being called into question now, and how long will it be before a general paralysis freezes the entire letters-of-credit system that underlies global commerce?

The Syria soap opera has also managed to upstage the imminent mud-wrestling match between congress and the executive branch over the national debt limit and related matters of government spending. These problems appear for now to be completely intractable. If the government overcomes the latest version of this recurring dilemma, it will only be due to generating even more layers of accounting fraud to an already well-papered piñata that is just waiting to be smashed. While this goes on, the American public gets pushed deeper and deeper into a financial abyss, haunted by re-po men, lying bank officers, verminous lawyers, and chiseling hospital administrators.

All this is a recipe for a political explosion. What happens if the U.S. Government starts gassing its own citizens? It happened in 1967. That one only made people cry. Maybe next time, they’ll use a different kind of gas.

Thank you, Audrey Spence Portland

Reader looks forward to seeing Halkias columns in the Sun Editor, Thanks to Telly Halkias for sharing the story “Letters to Kandi,” in the Portland Daily Sun. Literally one of the best things I have ever read. Look forward

to reading his column every week. All the best.

Matt Taylor South Portland

‘Letters to Kandi’ column struck a chord; one reader recalls ‘Enrique’ Editor, Something otherworldly put the Daily Sun and the “Letters to Kandi” column by Telly Halkias in my life for an important reason. THANK YOU for all the connections, memories, tears and hope that I’ve taken away from the reading.

His name was Enrique — summer ‘69 in London — saved my flat from the garbage strike consequences — love at first sight — spent next 10 years crossing and missing each other at many turns — but, always ... those beautiful, long letters. Only person on Earth who could finish my sentences for me, and always be right, even tho’ English wasn’t his native language.

Sent him a plane ticket to Boston for my 40th birthday — he used it — all feelings still there, but circumstances keep throwing up insurmountable

obstacles. He’s recovering from a heart attack, while I’m about to undergo extensive cancer surgery. I put a niche above the closet in my newly renovated retirement cottage. The moulding is shaped like the prow of a boat and it faces toward Spain. The trunk my grandfather used to immigrate from Greece will live up there, lovingly protecting stacks of Enrique’s letters. Maybe someday the progeny will read them and finally understand.

Reader appreciated Halkias column Editor, This is fan mail: that was a fine piece by Telly Halkias in the Labor Day weekend edition of Portland Daily Sun (“Letters to Kandi”). Great story, and just wonderfully written. Thank you for it.

It is not sufficient to point at the president and blame his ineffective leadership LIBBY from page 4

United States acquire a military base at Guantanamo Bay in Cuba?

President Obama is correct to seek the support of the Congress for the contemplated action, further the United Nations and the United Arab States should be forced to go on record on this issue. If

strict economic sanctions are being effective in Iran, why will they not work in Syria? Each representative in Congress should present a clear statement of what should be done and why. It is not sufficient representation to point at the president and blame his ineffective leadership, it demands each representative should speak directly to constituents and explain each vote. The Constitution makes Congress

the preeminent branch of government, responsible for the budget and in control of our military. It is time to act like it.

South Portland teens summonsed in wake of cat-in-microwave clip

12 years in jail and six years of supervised release for possession with intent to distribute oxycodone, according to U.S. Attorney Thomas E. Delahanty II. Snow pled guilty to the charge on May 9, a press release from Delahanty reported.

According to court records, on Jan. 29, Snow was stopped by Maine State Police troopers and found to be in possession of 500 oxycodone pills. Snow admitted the pills were his and that he intended to distribute them, Delahanty reported.

At sentencing, Judge Hornby found Snow to be a career offender which subjected him to enhanced sentencing penalties.

This case was investigated by the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration, the Maine State Police and the Scarborough Police Department.

Daily Sun Staff Reports Two 15-year-old female South Portland High School students were issued summonses for cruelty to animals in the wake of a video posted on Twitter that appeared to show two teenage females, reportedly students from South Portland, putting a cat in a microwave, the South Portland Police Department reported.

On Friday, the department received reports that a video posted on Twitter appeared to show the teens putting a cat in a microwave on or about Sept. 5, Lt. Frank Clark reported.

On Monday morning, as part of the investigation resulting from those reports, the students were issued summonses, Clark reported. The girls’ names and identifying information are being withheld due to their age, he noted.

The matter remains under investigation, and the case will be referred to the Cumberland County District Attorney’s Office for review and consideration of the appropriate formal juvenile charges, Clark reported.

The cat is reportedly not displaying any ill effects at this time, Clark reported. Its owners, however, have agreed to turn the cat over to South Portland’s Animal Control Officer, who will be seeking a veterinary evaluation and appropriate disposition for the cat, he reported.

This incident has prompted a widespread response in social media circles, strongly condemning these actions, and the police department wanted the public to know that the matter is being addressed and referred to the Juvenile Justice System, Clark reported.

“We want to say thank you to those who reported this matter to the department, and would ask for the public’s patience in letting the system do its job,” he said.

Police locate man sought as part of Portland burglary probe The Portland Police Department has located a man they sought as a person of interest related to a series of residential burglaries in the city, after the Portland man allegedly was caught committing a break-in in Buxton.

David Michael Ferrar, 23, of Portland, was taken into custody Saturday morning by members of the Portland Police Department, the Buxton Police Department, Maine State Police and the Maine Warden Service in Buxton, according to a press release. He was charged with burglary and theft of a firearm. Ferrar was Ferrar wanted on a probation violation and is still a person of interest in a rash of residential burglaries in the areas of Morrill’s Corner and Munjoy Hill in Portland.

Police received information that Ferrar was in the Buxton area and officers found him on Dunnell Road while allegedly committing another burglary, according to a press release. Ferrar is being held at the York County Jail in lieu of $150,000 bail.

Several weeks ago, the Portland Police Department cautioned residents to lock their homes and vehicles after a series of burglaries were reported on Munjoy Hill and the Morrill’s Corner neighborhoods. Police said the burglars had either entered homes through unlocked windows or, in some cases, cut through screens.

Items reported stolen during the burglaries included laptop computers, computer tablets, cash, jewelry, medication and firearms.

Some of the burglaries were concentrated around

Ayla Reynolds’ father arrested for violation of bail in South Portland Justin DiPietro, 26, of Waterville, father of missing Waterville toddler Ayla Reynolds, was arrested by the South Portland Police Department Friday at about 11 a.m. for violation of bail, due to possession of alcohol, police said.

He was being held on $350 cash bail, staff at the Cumberland County Jail reported.

DiPietro’s violation was he was in possession of alcohol, according to the South Portland Police Department.

DiPietro was driving a vehicle that was pulled over for having an expired inspection sticker, police said. One of his bail conditions is he must submit to random searches and testing, and when the officer searched the vehicle, the officer found alcohol in the vehicle, according to the South Portland Police Department.

In July, Portland police officers arrested DiPietro in the area of 88 Spring St. after a police lieutenant passing by observed him DiPietro assault a woman, according to Portland police. The victim, a 25-year-old Portland woman, was identified by police at the time as an ex-girlfriend of Dipietro. She was not injured in the assault.

Dipietro was charged with domestic violence assault and released on bail from that incident. DiPietro pleaded not guilty in court at the time.

The disappearance of Ayla Reynolds has captivated the nation. She was reported missing from the house she shared with her father in Waterville on Dec. 17, 2011.

Acclaimed French comic Gad Elmaleh at Port City: Comedy ‘my language and way of communicating’

By Timothy Gillis

SPECIAL TO THE PORTLAND DAILY SUN

Nomme a la fois le “Ben Stiller” et le “Jerry Seinfeld” Francais, Gad Elmaleh est certainement le plus important et aime comedien Francais.

Tu comprends?

Even if you haven’t had French since high school, you can still probably understand that Gad Elmaleh is being compared to the great American comics, Ben Stiller and Jerry Seinfeld.

Organizers of the comedy show, which will be Wednesday, Sept. 11, at Port City Music Hall, are betting that humor is universal and that there are enough French-speaking people in the greater Portland area to fill the venue.

Born in Casablanca, Morocco, Elmaleh speaks Moroccan Arabic, French, English, and Hebrew. In 2006, he was awarded the “Chevalier des Arts et des Lettres” by France’s minister of culture and was voted “The Funniest Person in France.”

Shortly thereafter, he followed up with his fifth one-man show, “Papa est en Haut” (“Dad is Upstairs”) which premiered at the prestigious Just for Laughs Comedy Festival in Montreal, as well as to sold-out audiences in Miami, Los Angeles, and the Beacon Theater in New York City.

In December of 2007, Gad made history when he sold out the prestigious L’Olympia (Paris’ Carnegie Hall) for seven consecutive weeks, something no one has done before. Immediately after his stint at the Olympia, Gad performed for another seven sold out weeks at Le Palais des Sports, a 3,800-seat venue.

Early tickets sales were slow, and forced the State Theatre to move the show to Port City Music Hall, but organizers still expect Elmaleh to have the room in stitches.

I caught up with the comedian a few weeks ago, as he returned from a trip with his partner, Charlotte Casiraghi, a member of Monaco’s “House of Grimaldi” royal family. They are engaged and expecting their first child at the end of 2013.

Gad: I’ve been on vacation for one month, so I restart with you, Tim, I don’t know if it’s a good thing. I don’t know if I will remember you in a good way.

Tim: You’re coming to Portland, Maine. Will show be in French or English or both?

Gad: In French. This is a tour that I’m doing in the United States for the Francophones. I like to put some English in it. It’s an opportunity to work on some English material, because it will be my next step.

Tim: What do you expect from a Maine audience?

Have you been here before?

Gad: It’s my first time in Maine. I don’t expect anything, so I can only be surprised. Lobster — I can only give you the clichés.

Tim: You did your first routine all in English in July in Montreal, and got a great reception, a standing ovation. Tell me about that.

Gad: My good friend, Eddie Izzard (a British comedian), invited me. I didn’t have a standing ovation in French! I was really surprised. It was a special night for me. The challenge is to go to Maine, now.

Tim: You have filmed a comedy routine with Jerry Seinfeld called “Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee.”

What was that like?

Gad: We’re really very close friends now. Comedians are linked, even if they don’t know each other.

But when they get to work together — Jerry came to Paris — and then when I performed in French in New York City, he did this great surprise: he came and did the opening. It was a great surprise, this icon of comedy. We became good friends and he proposed to me that do “The Bee Movie.”

He called me one day and said ‘I heard you where in New York. I’m doing this show called Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee.’ I said ‘what do I have to do?’

He said ‘Nothing. I’ll pick you up and we’ll get coffee

and film it.’ We had a great time.

Tim: How’s Jerry’s French?

Gad: Very bad.

He knows nothing about France. But we laughed. All the Americans say, ‘I took two years of French in high school, but I forgot.’

We do English, and we don’t forget.

Tim: I understand you and Charlotte are expecting. When is the baby due?

Gad: Really? I better check. You’re just informing me of someElmaleh thing.

Tim: Wikipedia says that, so it must be true.

Gad: Oh boy. I must get ready for that.

Tim: What jokes do you dare to tell the royal family?

Gad: I think that a comedian doesn’t have to adapt his jokes or change who he is — and humor is really my language and way of communicating. I am who I am, whatever happens.

Tim: Who is your favorite French comedian?

Gad: That’s a hard question because they all my friends — so Jamel Debbouze is one of my favorites, one of the best in France (he pauses and then includes himself in the count). I think he should be maybe number two or three, something like that.

Tim: You were born in Morocco. Do you return there often?

Gad: Oh, yes. I like to visit Marrakesh. I have a place there, and like to go with the family. I like to bring American people over there, to show them where I was born. Morocco is a great country. Once they (Americans) understand it’s not the Middle East or next to China, they begin to understand, and fall in love with the country.

Tim: Much like Seinfeld, your humor is observational, and difficult to retell, even in the same language. What do you focus on in trying to convey your

jokes in another language?

Gad: This is the real thing that I think about almost every day because being able to make jokes in another language is not only a matter of translation, and has nothing to do with accent. You can kill people with laughing with a French or Moroccan or Chinese accent, but you have to be understandable each second. (The audience) never has to say in their mind ‘oh, what did he say’ because humor is about timing, it’s about pacing, and you don’t want to lose them with that.

What I’m working on very hard now is this rhythm and sometimes not the translation but to get the real syntax formula in English.

When I translated my ten-minute bit into English, I had four pages in French and I got two pages in English. That was great because it was contracted.

I have to learn all that to make people laugh in English, and not only translate. It’s more adaptation.

Tim: What are your favorites comedy topics?

Gad: I like to choose universal things. I won’t do an impression of a famous French — I don’t know what — politician. If I’m talking about a dog in French and it’s funny, it’s going to be funny in English or any language.

Looking Ahead: Gad Elmaleh’s future projects include the lead role in the Costa Gavras feature, “Le Capital” opposite Gabriel Byrne, the much-anticipated French comedy “Les Seigneurs,” the romantic comedy “Le Bonheur n’arrive jamais seul” opposite Sophie Marceau as well as a lead role in Michel Gondry’s next feature “Mood Indigo,” which will be released in 2013.

General admission tickets $40 Student tickets ($15) are available in advance at the Cumberland County Civic Center Box Office with student ID, or the night of the show at the Port City Box Office with proper ID.

More than 500 people passed through the gates last Sunday for the Victorian Fair at Victorian Mansion in Portland, according to caretakers of the Danforth Street landmark.

The Victorian Fair mingled views of the historic Morse-Libby House, built between 1858 and 1860

as a summer home for Ruggles Sylvester Morse, a luxury hotel proprietor, with vignettes of the era on the lawn outside.

But adding to the novelty was an outdoor encampment of Civil War re-enactors, complete with period popcorn and snacks.

Steve Henry of Winthrop played the fife while decked out in full infantry regalia.

“I’m pretty much just a private in the ranks, just an infantry private,” Henry said.

The fife music gave a glimpse of life for the Third Maine, Company A, a regiment recruited early in the Civil War from several communities of Maine’s Kennebec River Valley.

Music was “a very large part of their existence because they did so little fighting and so much marching and drilling and work,” Henry explained.

As a result, “they had a lot of free time on their hands, and music filled a lot of that; and it also was a huge morale booster.

People in the ranks would play banjo, cornets, guitars, fiddles, Irish pennywhistles, “in fact each regiment pretty much if they could afford it, would have a brass band that would put on daily concerts of popular music,” he added.

At the Victorian Mansion Sunday, Henry’s fifeplaying infantryman was joined by Larry Williams, who played the role of a gentleman in the 1860s, and Robert Pierce, who portrayed a private in the Union Army.

“We try to portray what life was like for a Civil War soldier with the Third Maine — we’re also known as the Bath City Grays — back in the 1860s,” Pierce said.

Williams said, “The Bath City Grays have been around quite awhile, and when the war started they went in with the Third Maine.” see next page

‘We try to portray what life was like for a Civil War soldier’ from preceding page

The Company A, Third Maine Regiment Volunteer Infantry, according to its website (http://www.thirdmaine. org) “is a nonprofit educational and living history organization dedicated

to preserving the memory of Maine’s role in the American Civil War.” The Bath City Grays mustered into federal service on June 4, 1861, in Augusta, as Company “A” of the Third Maine Regiment Volunteer Infantry.

The majority of the men, according

to the re-enactment group, were tradesmen, shipwrights, shopkeepers and artisans, while the rest of the regiment was largely composed of Kennebec lumbermen.

“When the Seventeenth finally mustered out of service on June 10, 1865, in Portland, Maine, several veterans of the original Third Maine had served four years and one week-a total of 1,468 days of this county’s most horrible and devastating war to date,” the group’s website noted.

On Sunday, the portrayals included “civilian ladies,” who “research and illuminate the roles of women in the early 1860s,” including “Maine women who served in the Maine Camp and Hospital Association and the United States Sanitary Commission.”

Those included Carolyn Lawson, who helped visiting women try on elaborate Victorian era dresses.

Portland Blacksmith Guild member Sam Smith and Solomon Spiegel dem-

onstrated how to forge metalworks on an anvil.

The Victorian Mansion will host a special performance by Joanna Olsen: “the story of the woman for whom King Edward VII would abdicate the throne,” noon on Wednesday and Thursday, Sept. 18 and 19, at the Cumberland Club. Tickets are $75 per person, proceeds from this event benefit Victoria Mansion.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Your smile is your best accessory, and you’ll wear it from day into night. When your mood dips, the flexing of a few facial muscles will improve things immensely.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Other people’s belief systems may not match yours, but that doesn’t make them wrong. The only steadfast rule is that there are no steadfast rules. Being flexible will serve you well.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Cats and terriers can smell the rats they can’t see, and you have something in common with these perceptive beasts today. State your suspicion, and it will be confirmed.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Sept. 10). What’s better than doing work you enjoy with people you love? You’ll find out in the span of four weeks. October brings a change in the friendship circle. November sees you entrusted with a responsibility, as well as with the key to someone’s heart. Make your move in January when your idea will be universally liked.

Cancer and Leo people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 30, 14, 2, 35 and 47.

by Jan Eliot

ARIES (March 21-April 19). Roll with the punches. Don’t let yourself get attached to an interaction going any certain way. This isn’t a movie, and your happy ending does not hinge on a single interaction playing out in one particular way.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You want to be seen in a certain light, and you’re being a bit careful about how you present yourself.

Just know that you will have to reveal a bit about yourself if you want others to let down their guard and do the same.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You’ll be making a pitch of some kind. Don’t forget to ask for what you want. Once you state your intention, people will either support you or opt out. Either way, your time will not be wasted.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). Class is not money, and money is not class. Ideally, you’ll learn and grow and have plenty of both. For now, determine which you have more of and then work on the lacking area for a while.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Beware of the tendency to spend unnecessarily now. Take a second look at the choices you’ve made. It’s a good time to cut something out for the sake of living within your means.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). The question will arise: Are you being too hard on yourself?

How far should you push yourself for optimal strength, health and happiness? Your tendency is to go too far, and today you’ll benefit from pulling back.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Marcel Proust said that the only paradise is paradise lost.

He underestimated your ability to know a good thing when it’s happening. You will revel in today’s slice of heaven.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). In order to fully accept yourself, you must first consciously realize what it is you’re rejecting.

Certain notions you have about yourself are so ingrained that you won’t notice them until someone points them out to you.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Use good judgment in deciding when to try to influence others and when to stay out of it.

People indulging their prejudices don’t want to be confused with facts.

––––––– ALMANAC ––––––– Today is Tuesday, Sept. 10, the 253rd day of 2013. There are 112 days left in the year.

Today’s Highlight in History: On September 10, 1813, an American naval force commanded by Oliver H. Perry defeated the British in the Battle of Lake Erie during the War of 1812. (Afterward, Perry sent out the message, “We have met the enemy and they are ours.”)

On this date: In 1608, John Smith was elected president of the Jamestown colony council in Virginia.

In 1846, Elias Howe received a patent for his sewing machine.

In 1912, the jungle character Tarzan made his debut as “Tarzan of the Apes” by Edgar Rice Burroughs was first published in The All-Story magazine.

In 1919, New York City welcomed home Gen. John J. Pershing and 25,000 soldiers who’d served in the U.S. 1st Division during World War I. In 1939, Canada declared war on Germany.

In 1945, Vidkun Quisling was sentenced to death in Norway for collaborating with the Nazis (he was executed by firing squad in October 1945).

In 1962, the U.S. Supreme Court ordered the University of Mississippi to admit James Meredith, a black student.

In 1963, twenty black students entered Alabama public schools following a standoff between federal authorities and Gov. George C. Wallace.

In 1979, four Puerto Rican nationalists imprisoned for a 1954 attack on the U.S. House of Representatives and a 1950 attempt on the life of President Harry S. Truman were freed from prison after being granted clemency by President Jimmy Carter.

In 1983, John Vorster (FAWS’-tur), prime minister of white-ruled South Africa from 1966 to 1978, died in Cape Town at age 67.

In 1987, Pope John Paul II arrived in Miami, where he was welcomed by President and Mrs. Reagan as he began a 10-day tour of the United States.

In 1993, “The X-Files” premiered on Fox Television.

Ten years ago: Swedish Foreign Minister Anna Lindh, 46, was stabbed in a Stockholm department store; she died the next day. (Mijailo Mijailovic was later convicted of murdering Lindh and was sentenced to life in prison.) The first video image of Osama bin Laden in nearly two years was broadcast on Al-Jazeera T. Five years ago: The world’s largest particle collider passed its first major tests by firing two beams of protons in opposite directions around a 17-mile (27-kilometer) ring under the FrancoSwiss border. Frank Mundus, the legendary shark fisherman said to have inspired the character of Quint in “Jaws,” died in Honolulu at age 82.

One year ago: An airstrike killed al-Qaida’s No. 2 leader in Yemen along with six others traveling with him in a breakthrough for U.S.-backed efforts to cripple the terror network’s operations in the impoverished Arab nation. Chicago teachers walked off the job in what would become a seven-day strike, idling nearly 400,000 students in one of the nation’s third-largest school district. Andy Murray became the first British man since 1936 to capture a Grand Slam title, beating Novak Djokovic, to win the U.S. Open in five grueling sets.

ANNIE’S MAILBOX

Dear Annie: I am a 34-year-old wife and mother of four.

My husband is 44 and drinks on a daily basis. I don’t mind a few cans of beer when he gets home. However, he drinks at least a six-pack, usually more, every day after work. I’m tired of arguing with him about his drinking. He always responds, “At least I drink at home and not at the bar.”

My husband also refuses to get an annual physical exam.

He never sees a doctor or a dentist, even if he is sick. I’m really worried about his health. I want him to live long enough for our children to reach adulthood.

I have asked my husband whether he will let me take him for a physical. If the doctor says he is healthy, my heart will be at peace. I think he is being selfish, only thinking of himself. He talks so much of pride. But he doesn’t consider what would happen to his family if anything were to happen to him. My youngest child is only 4. How do I get him to cut back on his drinking and see a doctor? -- Worried Wife Dear Worried: We don’t think your husband is being intentionally selfish. We think he is afraid. People who avoid doctors and dentists often do so because they fear what the doctor will find. Those with a drinking problem may be concerned that the doctor will discover damage from the drinking, but they are unwilling to stop. If your husband’s drinking has increased, he may also be depressed and self-medicating.

You can try talking to him about these possibilities. Unfortunately, he may not be willing to admit any of this or change his behavior, in which case, the best you can do is protect yourself. Make sure he has a valid will and his affairs are in order. And contact Al-Anon (al-anon.alateen.org) for support.

Dear Annie: Two years ago, my husband and I bought a

condo so we could spend our winters in a warm climate. We have family members who are now inviting themselves to “visit,” which means they are vacationing while we do all the work. We enjoy these relatives, but for a shorter time period.

And having their own accommodations would be ideal.

How would you suggest we handle this? We don’t want to hurt anyone’s feelings, but we are not very excited about these yearly winter visitors, and I feel used. -- N. in Arizona Dear N.: Unless you tell these people they cannot stay with you, they will continue to impose. Simply say, “It would be wonderful to see you. Unfortunately, we aren’t up to hosting guests. Here are the names of local hotels. Let us know when you get settled.” If anyone ends up at your condo, don’t be reluctant to ask them to pitch in with the groceries, cooking and cleaning. You did not, after all, invite them. Perhaps they will decide it isn’t quite so appealing as a “vacation” spot. At the very least, you won’t be doing all of the work.

Dear Annie: I read the response from “Fran,” who took exception to your response to “Perplexed,” saying that kids shouldn’t have to call their parents every day, even if it only takes five minutes.

I am a 61-year-old male. My grandmother used to live a block away. When I was a child, my mother would go see her every evening even if it was only for five minutes. One evening, I asked my mother why she went every single evening to see Grandma. She simply looked at me and said, “Because tomorrow I may never get to talk to her again.” I understood exactly what she meant. P.S.: Grandma passed away five years later. -- Loving Dad in Pennsylvania

By David Carkhuff THE PORTLAND DAILY SUN

Audrey Starborn of Oxford, founder of Experiencers Speak in Portland, said a Sept. 7-8 conference on alien abduction at the Clarion Hotel will be back in 2014. (DAVID CARKHUFF PHOTO)

This year’s Experiencers Speak in Portland summoned stories of trauma and accounts of encounters with alien beings that forever altered the lives of the speakers.

Audrey Starborn of Oxford, founder of Experiencers Speak in Portland, said the Sept. 7-8 conference at the Clarion Hotel was “all about education” and vowed to return in 2014.

But now that the second conference is over, outreach and support will continue, Starborn said.

Support groups for people who believe they were abducted by aliens will continue meeting, and Starborn will begin contemplating next fall’s conference in conjunction with a similar-themed New Hampshire gathering.

“We plan on having it every year, probably this week of every year,” Starborn said of the Experiencers series. “Usually, Labor Day weekend is the Exeter UFO

“It’s all about having a place that can help the person who is having experiences with being abducted, it’s a very lonely, scary thing, and if they don’t have anyone to talk to it really can have post-traumatic stress as an issue.” — Audrey Starborn of Oxford Fest (they canceled it this year), but we like to do them back to back so people coming in from other states can do a week and have two UFO events to go to,” Starborn said.

According to press reports, repairs to a town hall building forced cancellation of this year’s UFO Festival in Exeter, but organizers are planning next year’s event with a target date of Aug. 30, 2014 (more details are avail-

able at http://www.exeterufofestival.com).

Starborn Support, which started in 2006, now features 10 chapters on the East Coast, and Starborn said the organization offers therapies and support group meetings in between its annual conferences.

“It’s all about having a place that can help the person who is having experiences with being abducted, it’s a very lonely, scary thing, and if they don’t have anyone to talk to it really can have post-traumatic stress as an issue,” Starborn said.

An outreach program teaches families and friends “how to be supportive” and alleviate the sense of isolation, she said.

“Since 2006 since I started, we’ve had thousands of calls from all over the country and the world, so a lot of people are starting to have recollections about what’s going on, maybe starting to have dreams or getting some kind of messages,” she said.

‘Get the facts first,’ urges ‘Fire in the Sky’ author

By David Carkhuff THE PORTLAND DAILY SUN

The second Experiencers conference in Portland last weekend brought together several high-profile speakers whose stories of alien abduction or aliencentered research touched on cases both in New England and elsewhere in the country.

• Travis Walton Walton and Steve Pierce, an eyewitness to Walton’s reported Wednesday, Nov. 5, 1975 alien abduction in the Apache-Sitgreaves National Forest in Arizona, recounted their experiences, an incident which inspired the 1993 film, “Fire in the Sky.” Walton was one of seven men thinning trees on a U.S. Forest Service contract, and the crew was driving along a ridgeline after a day of work when they saw a startling sight through the trees. A glowing, humming spacecraft hovered on the mountain, they said.

According to his written account, Walton said he “was suddenly seized with the urgency to see the craft at close range. I was afraid it would fly away and I would miss the chance of a lifetime to satisfy my curiosity about it. I hurriedly got out of the truck and started toward the hovering ship. ... I ducked into a crouch when a tremendously bright, bluegreen ray shot from the bottom of the craft. I saw and heard nothing. All I felt was the numbing force of a blow that felt like a high-voltage electrocution.”

What has been deemed “the best documented account of alien abduction yet recorded,” Walton’s story (formerly titled “The Walton Experience”) was told in detail at the Portland conference, including his five-day disappearance, his return and the ensuing controversy and investigation.

Asked why he attended the Experiencers Speak conference, Walton said, “It’s to advance the cause and make people aware that there is a core reality here.”

Like other speakers, Walton insisted that facts of the case have been clouded by disinformation.

“Probably the worst stuff was just disinformation, things that were said early on to try to explain it away, but much of the evidence that disproved those notions was available at the time,” Walton said in an interview. “It has taken all this time for it to filter out and gradually dispel those kinds of rumors. But it surprised me that just as recently as a few years ago someone went online and found somebody from

my hometown and asked them what they thought, and they said, ‘Oh, that was disproved a long time, that was all shown to be a drug hallucination.’ No, it wasn’t, it was almost immediately disproved by medical tests and blood and urine samples, with the county medical examiner’s drug screen, which showed there was no trace of any drug in my body.

And also that was a question on several of my lie detector tests.”

Walton underscored a key theme of the movie, which was the consistency of accounts and near unanimity of lie-detector tests.

“I’ve taken and passed five different lie-detector tests from three different examiners,” Walton said, “and just after the crew passed theirs, their six tests caused the president of the American Polygraph Association to say that the odds were over a million to one of there being any mistake with that many people passing tests on a single issue.”

Walton urged members of the public to do their own investigation. “Get the facts first,” he said. “In the first few pages of my book, I quote Emerson: ‘Condemnation, without investigation, is the height of ignorance.’”

And while “we don’t have absolute proof,” Walton likened the eyewitness testimony regarding his abduction to a case for murder in a judicial setting, noting how well accepted a case would be if based on six other eyewitnesses.

Asked the most common question he fields, Walton said, “Probably the silliest is, ‘what was that like?’

OK, where do I begin? Another common question is, ‘Has that ever happened again?’ I’ve always said from the beginning, people will compliment me and say, ‘It’s great that you have the courage to come out and talk about this.’ It wasn’t by my choice, I was basically forced to. After I was returned ... well, before I was returned it was already worldwide news. ... In order to counter all the misinformation, I found out I was better off to go ahead and do it” and speak out about the experience.

Asked the question he dreads the most at public forums, Walton said, “Did this really happen?” rises to the top of the list.

Asked about the movie, “Fire in the Sky,” Walton said, despite its fictionalization of much of the abduction sequence (the intensity of his experience was captured, even if the events differed from book to film, he said), the film still “really pointed people in the direction of looking at the facts.”

Walton said he is looking for a movie remake that is more accurate in the retelling, noting “popular demand” for a new Hollywood treatment of his story.

• Stanton Friedman On his website (http://www.stantonfriedman. com), Friedman notes that he was “employed for 14 years as a nuclear physicist by such companies as GE, GM, Westinghouse, TRW Systems, Aerojet General Nucleonics, and McDonnell Douglas.”

Only by chance — and a desire to save a little money — did Friedman encounter a book about flying saucers that turned his attention to the topic for the remainder of his life.

“In 1958, I was a young nuclear physicist working for General Electric aircraft nuclear propulsion department, it was a big program, that year we spent $100 million and employed 3,500 people of whom 1,100 were engineers and scientists,” Friedman recalled in an interview. “And I was ordering books from Marlboro Books of New York, my wife and I used to order discounted books, and I needed one more book so I wouldn’t have to pay shipping because I’m a cheapskate, and there was one, a hardcover book, a report on unidentified flying objects,” by an Air Force captain.

Friedman said he read the book and pondered the possible applications of nuclear power for UFOs as part of the GE program.

Friedman would become a fixture in UFO analysis, and gained notoriety as the original civilian investigator of the Roswell Incident “way back in 1978” (he co-authored “Crash at Corona: The Definitive Study of the Roswell Incident”).

Lecturing since 1967, with more than 700 lectures, Friedman said, Maine is “no different than anyplace else” when it comes to encounters with unidentified flying objects.

Friedman said audience members at conferences who admit to seeing flying saucers also say they did not report the incidents. “That’s the problem,” he said. The informal polling of audiences sometimes yields surprising results.

“If there are hands left up, I will ask, ‘How many of you are still in the military at the time,’ and if there are still some hands, I’ll ask, ‘ Do you want to tell us about it?’ One guy in front of 1,300 people in Texas said, ‘I can’t. They told me not to say anything.’ That was a great line.” see ALIENS page 16

‘There was a lot of physical evidence that this was real’ ALIENS from page 15

Another member of the military, someone who flew over the Pacific and claimed he encountered a flying saucer, enjoyed credibility with the audience before which Friedman was spakeing. This military witness said pictures were “taken away” so he lacked the evidence other than his own account.

In his presentation, Friedman posed the question: “Airlines don’t select their travel routes by throwing darts at a dart board. Why expect that aliens would act and travel at random? Once one knows about nuclear fusion, nearby planetary systems would be within reach. We didn’t find out about fusion until 1938. It only took 14 years to explode our first Fusion weapon. What else would one expect from a primitive society, like ours, whose major activity is tribal warfare?”

Friedman lives in New Brunswick, Canada, but maintains a post office box in Houlton. He and Kathleen Marden co-authored the book, “Captured! The Betty and Barney Hill UFO Experience.”

• Kathleen Marden Now a resident of Clermont, Fla., Marden is the niece of two of New Hampshire’s most famous figures in alien-abduction literature, Betty and Barney Hill.

“I was 13 years old when they had their close encounter and their subsequent abduction, and I have for the past 23 years been working full time as a UFO and abduction researcher,” Marden said in an interview.

Marden On Sept. 19, 1961, Betty and Barney Hill were driving down Route 3 in northern New Hampshire after vacationing in Niagara Falls, N.Y., and Montreal, Canada. The couple stopped south of Twin Mountain and then again in Franconia Notch, both times marveling at an alien craft.

At one point, Barney Hill disembarked from their car to approach the craft, according to a narrative at Marden’s website, http://www.kathleen-marden. com/the-betty-and-barney-hill-ufo-experience.php.

“As Barney rapidly accelerated down the highway in an attempt to escape from the craft, it shifted directly overhead,” Marden recounts on her website. “Suddenly, rhythmic ‘buzzing’ tones seemed to bounce off the trunk of their vehicle and they sensed a penetrating vibration. They drove on without speaking until 35 miles down the road, once again they heard a second series of buzzing sounds. Vague memories of encountering a roadblock, of seeing a huge fiery red-orange orb resting upon the ground, and feeling a desire for human contact preoccupied their thoughts. They looked for an open restaurant to no avail, so they drove on through Concord, picked up Route 4 and made a beeline to Portsmouth, expecting to arrive at approximately 3 a.m. The Hills were surprised to notice that, as they crossed into Portsmouth, dawn was already streaking the sky.”

Marden, who spoke at last year’s conference as well, said part of her message is that her aunt and uncle bring a level of personal credibility to the realm of alien abduction.

“I want people to know that Betty was a social worker for the state of New Hampshire, that Barney had been appointed by the governor of the state of New Hampshire to sit on the state advisory commit-

tee to the U.S. Civil Rights Commission, that both were active in politics in the state of New Hampshire,” Marden said. “Working for voters rights, campaigning for Lyndon Johnson, they were politically active, members of the NAACP, doing good things for the state, and their abduction was the last thing that they ever wanted to be made public.”

After a violation of confidentiality brought the story to light, Marden said the couple’s memory of the event constituted part of an impressive quantity of evidence.

“I want people to know that part of the story,” she said. “There was a lot of physical evidence that this was real and there was also conscious, continuous recall that they had had a close encounter, that my uncle had observed what he described as nonhuman figures looking back at him. ...”

People ask questions about the couple’s credibility and their recollection, but questions that make her cringe, Marden said, include trite queries.

“A lot of times, it’s just the same old, ‘Why don’t they land on the White House lawn?’ ... I guess it’s the speculation,” Marden said.
