Two taxpayers owe close to $500,000 to town Residents call for personnel, service cuts to lower budget BY MELISSA GRIMA THE BERLIN DAILY SUN

GORHAM — The outstanding tax bills of two taxpayers limited the ability of the town to mitigate the

recently announced $2.85 rise in the 2011 tax rate. Gorham town officials said they were unable to access close to half a million dollars to offset the tax rate in 2011, as they had in previous years. The main cause for the lack of access was concern by the auditor over $460,000 in unpaid taxes owed the town. As a result, that money was taken from the town coffers and placed in a reserve fund to protect the town in

the case that money is not received. The bulk of that $460,000 in tax debt can be attributed to two taxpayers, according to Town Manager Robin Frost. Munce’s is responsible for $237,165 in unpaid taxes spread over 13 properties, while Currier Trucking is responsible for $222,964 in delinquent taxes for two properties.

Berlin native to sign copies of latest book at SaVoir Flare Saturday BY BARBARA TETREAULT THE BERLIN DAILY SUN

Berlin native Giles Laroche has written and illustrated a new children’s book, entitled ‘If You Lived Here: Houses of the World’ and will be signing copies of it this Saturday, Nov. 12, at SaVoir Flare on Main Street in Berlin from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.

BERLIN -- Native son Giles Laroche returns to Berlin this Saturday, Nov. 12, to sign copies of his latest children’s book, ‘If You Lived Here, Houses of the World’, at SaVoir Flare from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Laroche is a critically acclaimed writer and illustrator of children’s book as well as an abstract painter. Growing up in Berlin, Laroche was in second grade when a teacher piqued his interest in drawing. Now living in Salem, Mass., Laroche said he saw his first fine art books at the Berlin Public Library and had his first real art experiences at Berlin High School. “I especially enjoyed sketching the mountains, old farmhouses, and mill buildings which surrounded Berlin, New Hampshire, the town I grew up in,” he wrote on his web page. In an earlier interview with the Berlin Daily Sun and in a more recent e-mail exchange, Larouche said after graduating from Berlin High, he

worked several years at Converse Rubber Factory to earn money and eventually went to Montserrat College in Beverly, Mass. After graduation, he worked part-time for a while at an architectural firm and eventually in 1987, Little, Brown, & Company gave him a contract to illustrate the book, ‘Sign a Song of People’. He did four additional books for Little, Brown, & Company, followed by four books for Penguin Putman Publishers. His last three books have been for Houghton Mifflin Harcourt. His most recent books, ‘What’s Inside? Fascinating Structures Around the World’ and ‘If You Lived Here: Houses of the World’ were written as well as illustrated by Laroche. Laroche said the idea for ‘Houses of the World’ came from school children he has worked with doing artist-inresidence programs over the years at schools in eastern Massachusetts. Many times, he said the subject is communities with the kids making people, see BOOK page 8

Murphy drops out of Oscars telecast LOS ANGELES (NY Times) — The sudden departures this week of two of the leading participants in the Oscar telecast represent an embarrassing collapse in plans by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences for a ceremony that is its signature event and one of the most elaborately staged shows on television. On Wednesday the Academy announced that Eddie Murphy was dropping out as the Oscar host, just one day after the show’s producer, Brett Ratner, stepped aside amid a storm of criticism over his use of an anti-gay slur. Their exits left the Academy scrambling not only to fill key roles on the show but also to protect its core asset, a telecast that brings it about $80 million a year. Ratner, who was named the Oscar co-producer on Aug. 4, resigned on Tuesday because of the furor provoked by his public use over the weekend of the antigay term, and a subsequent, salacious discussion of his own sexual habits on Howard Stern’s radio program. Producers and hosts work closely as a team on the telecast, and with Ratner gone it was not surprising that Murphy would step aside as well.

(NY Times) — Stock investors around the world have been bracing for the possibility that Europe would not be able to contain its sovereign debt crisis. On Wednesday, as the financial troubles deepened in Italy, it appeared their worst fears had come true. Investors unleashed a selloff in stocks across the board in Europe and the United States after bond yields in Italy, one

of Europe’s largest economies, surpassed 7 percent, approaching the level that had sent other euro zone nations to seek bailouts. The sweep started in Europe, where stocks on the major indexes ended down around 2 percent. The sell-off fever spread to the United States, where Wall Street opened sharply lower and never recovered, closing down

more than 3 percent. The euro tumbled, and Spanish and French bond yields also rose, amid fears that the contagion could spread further. “Wednesday’s surge in Italian government bond yields has catapulted the euro-zone crisis into a dangerous new phase,” said John Higgins, a senior markets economist with Capital Economics, in a market commentary.

Ahead of Egypt’s vote, skepticism grows CAIRO (NY Times) — At the rally kicking off his campaign for Parliament, Basem Kamel, a core member of the youthful council that helped spur the end of the Mubarak government, wrestled with his stump speech calling for civilian rule. “We don’t want to return to the Islam of the Middle Ages,” said Mr. Kamel, his shaved head and white suit setting him apart in drab Sharabiyya, an impoverished northern Cairo neighborhood in his campaign district. “I don’t want the Islam that preaches I am right and everyone else is an infidel.” The official campaign for Egypt’s first parliamen-

tary elections since President Hosni Mubarak was toppled in February has started slowly, coinciding with a weeklong break marking the year’s main Muslim holiday. But the campaign’s contours have been known for months, namely how a group of upstart, mostly liberal parties will challenge the well-organized juggernaut of the Muslim Brotherhood, as well as remnants of the old government’s political machine. The question shadowing the election is whether a robust enough Parliament will emerge to fulfill an elusive goal of the revolution: challenging the military’s 60-year grip on power.

(NY Times) — Voters turned a skeptical eye toward conservativebacked measures across the country Tuesday, rejecting an anti-labor law in Ohio, an anti-abortion measure in Mississippi and a tightening of voting rights in Maine. Even in Arizona, voters turned out of office the chief architect of that state’s controversial anti-immigration law. State Senator Russell Pearce, a Republican power broker and a former sheriff’s deputy known for his uncompromising style, conceded the race Tuesday with a look of shock on his face. Tuesday’s results could breathe new life into President Obama’s hopes for his re-election a year from now. But the day was not a wholesale victory for Democrats. Even as voters in Ohio delivered a blow to Gov. John R. Kasich, a Republican, and rejected his attempt to weaken collective bargaining for public employees, they approved a symbolic measure to exempt Ohio residents from the individual mandate required in Obama’s health care law.

A year has passed since you left us. I think of you every day. I can’t seem to go on without you by my side. You were there for us as we were for you. Our relationship is one that a lot of people did not recognize. I pray to God daily and ask him to give me the strength, wisdom, and courage to continue. I know that one day we will be together again. I still shed a tear whenever your name is mentioned to me, rather it be someone I have not seen in a while, or whether it is thy neighbors. I will never forget you and I know that one day we will all be together again. Both of us talk about you and we both miss you very much. Until that day when we reach heaven, I hope you will be there waiting for us. You are my soul mate and I will always remember when you told me so. God has sent me gifts when I needed the truth to be shown in some way or another. I know you are with me so until that day comes. We will always think of you and share our memories. John you are my angel with wings. You give me shade when the sun is too hot. You give me shelter when it rains. You protect me from the strong wind. When I go to bed at night you cover me. You are my angel with wings. Love always Paula and Rian

Supreme Court to hear Two arrested in connection Blizzard license appeal with armed bank robbery CONCORD — The New Hampshire Supreme Court is scheduled to hear the appeal of a Laconia woman who lost her boat license after she was convicted of causing the death of a friend in a boat crash. Erica Blizzard was convicted of negligent homicide in the 2008 death of Stephanie Beaudoin on Lake Winnipesaukee. Her Safe Boating Certificate was revoked for one year and her privilege to operate a boat was

revoked for three years. The Citizen reported that Blizzard’s attorney, James Moir, suggested that the ruling was “unjust and unreasonable” and in violation of her due process rights. A lawyer for the state Transportation and Construction Bureau said the state has both statutory and regulatory authority to take action. The court is scheduled to hear arguments on Nov. 16. —Courtesy of WMUR

Help needed to locate missing Goffstown man GOFFSTOWN — Police are asking for help in finding a 50-year-old man whose family has not seen him since last May. Detective Thomas Hammond said investigators do not suspect foul play in the disappearance of David Deveau, 50, nor are there any mental health or medical issues. Deveau left Goffstown last May, saying he was going to stay at a friend’s house in Nashua and his family hasn’t seen him since. The family - his daughter and ex-wife - became concern when his daughter’s birthday came and went

and he didn’t call her, Hammond said. They reported him missing in July after they couldn’t locate him in Nashua. “The family wants to know that he is safe,” Hammond said. Deveau had worked at a stamping company in Goffstown. One day, he just didn’t show up for work, according to Hammond. “He was working up until he disappeared,” Hammond said. Deveau is described as 5-foot-6, 145 pounds with brown hair and blue eyes. Anyone with information about him is asked to call police at 497-4858. —Courtesy of The Union Leader

Food pantries struggle to meet Thanksgiving need MANCHESTER — With Thanksgiving less than two weeks away, agencies that supply the hungry in New Hampshire are worried about meeting the need. The rising price of food, coupled with a drop in donations, is putting the squeeze on food pantries, according to Melanie Gosselin, executive director of the New Hampshire Food Bank. She said requests for help at local food pantries are up 30 to 40 percent over last year. The New Hampshire Food Bank serves as the central distribution point for pantries in New Hampshire. Russell Gebo of Shepherd’s Pantry in Windham picked up more than 100 turkeys on Wednesday and said that his organization is seeing five to 10 new families come in for help each week. “You hate to see all these young families come in, these young kids with new babies, and that breaks our

heart,” he said. Gossellin said the food bank’s demand is up 15 percent over last year, when it distributed 6 million pounds of food. She said more could be done with more supplies or cash. “We’re not seeing the volume of food donations and cash donations that we’ve seen in the past, so we’re really asking people to reach out if you can,” she said. Gosselin said the focus this year is donating money. “For two reasons,” she said. “One, it’s easier. It takes the guesswork out of how to help. And it gives us options, whether we need to buy fuel to send our trucks up to the North Country or buy food to stock our shelves.” Gosselin said a donation of $25 will provide a family of four with a holiday meal and ensure they have a little something for leftovers. Donations can be made at the food bank’s website. —Courtesy of WMUR

BY DAYMOND STEER THE CONWAY DAILY SUN

CONWAY — Two men have been arrested in connection with a Nov. 2 armed robbery at the TD Bank on Eastman Road. The two are accused of stealing money from a TD Bank customer who was making a night deposit. Arrested were Joshua Riff, 21, of Conway, and Michael J. Rehmert Jr., 32, of Fryeburg. The arrests were the result of an investigation conducted by Conway police and five other law enforcement agencies in Maine and New Hampshire, according to Conway police Lt. Chris Perley, who went on to describe the investigation as a "shining example" of how law enforcement can successfully work together toward the "goal of apprehending dangerous criminals." The robbery occurred at 9:29 p.m. Nov. 2 when a TD Bank customer drove up to the night deposit box. A man wearing a black bandanna over his face jumped on the hood of the car brandishing a pistol and demanded the money. The man pointed a gun at the victim, took the deposit and the victim’s cell phone and tossed the victim’s car keys into the woods. Less than an hour later, Cobble Pond Farms convenience store was robbed by suspects with similar descriptions. No charges have been filed in connection with the Cobble Pond Farms robbery. On Monday, Conway police arrested Riff and charged him with conspiracy to commit armed robbery and accomplice to robbery, which are both class A felonies. Each charge is punishable by up to 15 years in prison. Riff was arraigned on Tuesday and bail was set at $50,000 cash or surety. He was remanded to Carroll County Jail pending a probable cause hearing on Nov. 22. Riff's arraignment was kept quiet as to avoid tipping off the other suspect that Riff had been caught, said Perley. On Tuesday, law enforcement from Maine arrested Rehmert and charged him with armed robbery and kidnapping. He faces up to 30 years in prison. On Tuesday, a judge issued a warrant

to search his residence and vehicle. "During the search warrant, intelligence was developed leading the police to believe that Rehmert could be found at Infinity Tattoo, a tattoo parlor located on Route 25 in Standish, Maine," said Perley. "Cumberland County Sheriff's Office investigators and tactical units responded to that location and took Rehmert into custody after a brief struggle." Law enforcement also seized Rehmert's vehicle, which was at the tattoo parlor. The vehicle was taken to Conway police headquarters for a search. Conway and Madison police went to Standish to help with the investigation and then delivered Rehmert to Cumberland County jail to await extradition. On Wednesday, Rehmert waived extradition hearing in Portland District Court. Several people on The Conway Daily Sun's Facebook page said they were happy to see arrests made in the case. But Riff's aunt, Tracey Collins Ayers, wrote a note of support for her nephew. "Thats right he's my nephew, and there is no proof he did anything. Don't judge. He'll get his day in court!" wrote Ayers. Riff's Facebook page indicates his mood changed several times before he was arrested, but the messages are vague. On Nov. 3, Riff wrote, "They can’t stop me even if they stop me.” Two days later his tune changed and he wrote, “It's over. I feel the walls closing in. I'm ready." In another post on Nov. 4, he wrote: "It’s so hard to talk about what runs through my head but all my real friends and family, I really love you an did not mean to hurt any of you and my mother I’m so sorry I disappointed you as a son and I’m sorry for all the visits you had to see me locked away. I wish I could start all over. I wish I would have stayed home more and off the streets less.” According to Carroll County Corrections superintendent, Riff was booked into the facility at 7 p.m. Monday. Inmates are not allowed to use Facebook or cell phones. A Facebook page could not be found for Rehmert.

Read the fine print before you vote To the editor: The other day we purchased a package of toasted pumpkin seeds. It was labeled “organic” and had a picture of a small farm and the brand name Woodstock Farms. We try to buy organic and local products when we can so this looked good. At home I noticed the very fine print. “Packed for Woodstock Farms, Executive Ave., Edison, NJ” And “Product of China.” A reminder that if you want to stay true to yuur principles you need to read the tine print, The same is true for our politicians. They are not always what they want you to believe. Take Herman Cain. I’ll let you decide if he harassed those women, but he wants you to believe that he is a Washington outsider. He’s just a guy who was a success at running a chain of pizza restaurants, right? But how about all those years he spent in Washington as a highly paid lobbyist for the restaurant and agriculture business? Since lobbyists pretty much run Congress doesn’t that make him an insider? Read the line print. Or Rick Perry (great another ‘”aw shucks, Ma’am” Texas cowboy), who talks about cutting government spending and how he created so many jobs in Texas. He avoids telling you that as governor he not only supported the financial bailouts of

the Bush administration, but regularly petitioned federal agencies to increase spending in Texas. He also avoids the fact that many of the jobs created in Texas were federal jobs, not private sector. Is that what he means by job creation? Read the fine print. Mitt Romney. Hard to tell about the truth behind his positions, as he changes them depending on the audience. One tiny fact worth noting, though. He owns more mansions than any of the other candidates. Do you want another millionaire running your country? I actually agree with a few of the things Ron Paul talks about. If you watch his ads you will hear him promise the sun moon and stars and a chicken in every pot. Could he actually do all that? If you read more about his plans it seems pretty unlikely. One example: jobs. industry leaders across the country complain that the U.S. education system is not turning out sufficiently educated students to meet the needs of modern industry. Paul wants to eliminate the Department of Education. Does that make sense to you? Read the fine print. I could go on but I think I’ve made my point. Don’t make your decisions on what’s on the front llabel. Read the fine print before you vote. John Henne Shelburne

Burgess Mill in early 1900s

Once upon a Berlin Time

1906 VI

Hello fellow Berlinites. It seems like what started out as a busy historical year in Berlin during 1906, slowed down to a few items in the end. Strikes, buildings, and accidents still dominated the local newspapers in 1906. The temperance movement in Berlin was still very strong and a new year began in late September for the Women’s Christian Temperance Union locally. The annual election took place during their meeting and the person chosen as president was Lillian Estelle Farrington. Mrs. Farrington was a charter member of the W.C.T.U. here in Berlin and had served as treasurer in previous years. She also had other offices, such as secretary and treasurer of the Sunday school of the Congregational Society and served in this capacity for six years. Farrington was also a member of the Women’s Club of Berlin and during the state convention held here was a very prominent worker. The W.C.T.U. got its start in 1873 and had as its motto, “Do everything to protect women and children”. They dealt with many issues, including the abstinence of alcohol. I do not know if this temperance movement still exists today, but if so, their numbers are far below the early years. I am sure that one did not have a drink in Mrs. Farrington’s house. On Monday, October 1, 1906, nearly 500 employees of the Burgess Sulphite Fibre Company here in Berlin went out on strike. The news had come as a surprise, as the public thought things were going well. Like other fibre companies around the country at this time, the Burgess Mill had a continuous operation from Monday morning until Satur-

Court House early 1920

day night and this was done with two shifts. At some point during the summer of 1906, a request was made to go from two to three shifts with different employees working eight hours a day instead of 11 and 13 hours as before. Everything was good to go until a schedule was put out by the company in September, to go into effect on October 1. The employees noticed cuts in pay and the number of men employed. With this, the employees union and the company did not see eye to eye and it took almost one week for a settlement. By October 7, 1906, everyone was back on the job, but things were not right. About one and one half months later, another strike took place at midnight Monday, November 19. The paper said that the cause of the new strike was precipitated by the removal of foreman Albert Palmer. It was said that general manager T. P. Burgess had requested that his foremen withdraw from the union. With this, a battle ensued and words from both sides were spoken. Mr. Burgess sent a letter to the local news see 1906 VI page 5

papers editors that were published on their front pages. This is what it said: “Dear Sir, for the purpose of correcting a number of misstatements now in circulation, which have been brought to my attention, I desire to state the following facts”. 1. When our mill started up after the last strike, all jobs, until filled, were given in preference to our older men I and in order of the length of their employment. 2. No reduction in wages had been made from rates promised before November 1. 3. No foremen had been discharged. 4. I have transferred two foremen to different departments and in my judgment for more efficient results. One was at a higher daily wage than before and the other at the same wage as before. Other than this, we have made no change affecting the foremen. 5. I have no discrimination whatever between union and non union men. 6. I stand ready to start up our mill again whenever the same men wish to return to work in the same places and at the same wages as they had when they went out. The following week, the union answered Mr. Burgess. A rebuttal to all of his statements was made by the union representatives. Especially the last statement that said he did not discriminate between union and non union workers. They said: “If such was the case, we would like to ask why the foremen were called up one after another into the office and told if they did not get a withdrawal card from the union, they would be removed from their positions”. Also, the foremen that were hired from the outside were non union men, given their jobs with the understanding that they would not join the union. As you can see, these huge mills in Berlin were successful in earlier years, had many problems with which to contend and I am sure that emotions ran high. Finally, the work on Berlin’s new court house was almost complete. This beautiful 105 year old building was ready for its occupants near the end of 1906.

The great Berlin contractor, A.N. Gilbert said that everything would be in readiness for the opening of Superior Court on Tuesday morning December 4, 1906. Newspaper reporters inspected this beautiful building and gave a nice description for it in their front pages. As one approached the building, they observed the Porte Cochere or covered entrance which was constructed according to the architect’s Corinthian design. The price for this covered entrance was $1,200. Lillian E. Farrington The building itself was built with three stories and a basement. The roof was made of solid concrete, reinforced with iron. The cornice was cast in one piece and made in a single day. It weighed thirty tons and was supported by ten round columns and two pilasters of concrete like the roof. They rested on abutments of Groveton granite. The building was of red brick with concrete trimmings and was set back fifty feet from the old Main Street line. Its lawn and driveway were laid out in accordance with the plans of the architects. A full story of this building appeared in the papers during 1906 and in my belief should be posted on an inside wall of this beautiful piece of architecture for people to read. Being that a new courthouse was built a few years ago just up the road about one quarter of a mile, I fear that our old courthouse could eventually succumb to the wrecking ball. I sure hope that this will not happen and this building will function again in some capacity. In will finish writing my history of Berlin in 1906 with my next story.

mated that that same $460,000, if used to offset taxes, could have resulted in about $1.50 less of an increase. The town portion of the tax rate increased $1.73. The remainder of the raise in rates came from the local school portion ($0.59), county ($0.53). About a dozen residents attended Monday evening’s meeting of the Gorham selectmen to have their voices heard on the issue of higher taxes. Despite a confrontational tone for much of the evening, at the close of the topic, selectmen David Graham, Paul Robitaille, and Frost sincerely thanked those who turned out for contributing to the discussion. Overwhelmingly, the crowd called for a reduction in town employees and services. “Why don’t we do some cutting?” said Norm Provencher. “It’s time you guys tighten the belts. I think we’re overstaffed in a lot of places.” Gorham employees 42 full-time workers (this number was originally reported as 52, but the town rechecked their number and submitted the revised count on Tuesday). “Nobody likes to see people get laid off,” Provencher said, but added that it needs to happen. Another resident, Gary Aubin, told selectmen that people looking to relocate have told him they will not buy in Gorham due to the taxes. Those people are going to Milan instead, he explained. While some property owners pointed out that layoffs and poor economic climate made this tax increase hard to take, still others said the bills were so astronomical anyone would have a hard

time. Jeff Schall, who owns a home in the Stony Brook development, said his taxes have gone up over 20 percent. With a tax bill over $10,000, he told the board, “My dream is being shattered.” Schall announced that he would be placing his house on the market as a result of this latest tax bill, to which the room responded with a round of, “hear, hear.” Suggestions came from the audience to pare down the public works department by eliminating trash pick up or initiating efficiency measures. Budget committee members Jay Holmes and Robert Balon took the town leadership to task for failing to follow cost cutting recommendations like leaving a police vacancy unfilled recently. Holmes blamed the tax situation on residents who are not involved in the process giving the town leadership a free hand with spending. “The tax rate is a citizens’ problem,” Holmes said. Robitaille and Graham agreed that the tax rate is a problem and they were just as unhappy as everyone else that it went up when they worked to keep it flat. Robitaille admitted that he was in the same boat as many members of the crowd, unable to afford this latest bill and likely having to make some sort of payment arrangement with the town to pay it over time. He also added that the board, and town employees had made efforts in recent years to maintain level funding. Town employees had not received raises in four years, and cuts had been made to department budgets in previous years. The board would be asking for additional cuts this year as

well, he explained. Robitaille resisted calls for service cuts initially, pointing out the need for public safety and programs like recreation. The crowd would hear none of it however, accusing him of trying to use scare tactics. “Cuts can be made without affecting safety,” one resident said. Glen Eastman, who said that half of his entire social security income would be eaten up by his property tax bill, pointed out to the crowd that revenue had really caused the problem with the tax rate this year and that cuts would have to be made with magnitude in mind. For every dollar of tax impact, he said,$300,000 would have to come out of the budget. To counteract the nearly $3 increase in overall rate, the town would have eliminate roughly $900,000 in spending. He cautioned the crowd that there are “not enough places to cut that kind of spending.” Frost admitted that there are cuts that can and should be made, although she did not get into specifics.“We probably do have some places we can cut,” she said. Frost added that she and the selectmen will be discussing cuts with the department heads at upcoming public meetings and the taxpayers are encouraged to attend those discussions. The meetings with the department heads will take place on Nov. 17, 21, and 22, in the evening. As for the unpaid taxes, according to a filing in United States Bankruptcy Court, District of New Hampshire, one of 13 Gorham properties owned by Munce’s may be in the process of being sold to a Massachusetts company. According to the filing for the bankruptcy of Munce’s Superior Petroleum Products, Inc.,

Gorham Oil, Inc., Superior Trucking, Inc., Munce’s Real Estate Ventures, LLC, BMRA Real Estate Ventures, LLC, and Harold P. Munce and Marilyn J, Munce, an auction was held on Oct. 17 to dispose of the assets in the Munce’s convenience store business. Ten convenience store properties in communities throughout New Hampshire, including the property at 443 Main Street in Gorham, the former Gorham Oil, are under contract to CMRK, Inc. of Northborough, Mass. That property accounts for just over $50,000 of the outstanding $237,000 owed to the town for properties up and down Main Street. The sale of the 10 stores has not yet been finalized, but the court filing lists a total purchase price for the 10 locations at $3.86 million, with the Gorham location fetching $410,000. In addition to Gorham the stores included are located in Berlin, Groveton, Lancaster, Lincoln, Plymouth, New Hampton, Tamworth, and Warren. CMRK owner Fawaz Khoury could not be reached on Thursday to confirm or deny rumors that the stores would be run under the Irving and Circle K brands. A spokesman for Irving Oil in Canada said only that while Irving is always looking to grow their properties, they had nothing to report at this time. Contact information for Doug Currier, principle of Currier Trucking, who is believed to live in Maidstone, Vt., could not be found. Calls to the bankruptcy attorney representing Munce’s various business entities, Jessica Lewis of Bernstein, Shur, Sawyer & Nelson P.A., did not immediately return a call for comment.

hunting-related incidents per year has gone down steadily since the state instituted the hunter education requirement for first-time hunters in the 1970s. During the 1960s, New Hampshire had an average of 21.4 hunting-related incidents per year. Fewer incidents have occurred each decade since, with an average of 3.36 incidents per year since 2000. Serious incidents are even rarer – counting today’s tragic death, only five hunting-related fatalities have occurred in the state in the last 15 years. The most recent previous hunting-related shooting fatality in New Hampshire occurred on the opening day of muzzleloader season in 2009; in that incident, a hunter was killed when his muzzleloader discharged shortly after he had gotten into his tree stand. All hunters are encouraged to

review the ten commandments of hunter safety: 1. Treat every firearm with the same respect due a loaded firearm. 2. Control the direction of your firearm’s muzzle. 3. Be sure of your target and what is beyond it. 4. Be sure the barrel and action are clear of obstructions. 5. Unload firearms when not in use. 6. Never point a firearm at anything you do not intend to shoot. 7. Never climb a fence or tree, or jump a ditch or log, with a loaded firearm. 8. Never shoot a bullet at a flat, hard surface or water. 9. Store firearms and ammunition separately. 10. Avoid alcoholic beverages or other mood-altering drugs before or while shooting.

BOOK from page one

storefronts, streets, and other structures. “Kids always say ‘you should create a book about houses or cities or towns’”, Laroche said. The book does that, looking at unique homes around the world and the fascinating ways people live and have lived. From a chalet built into the Austrian Alps and house on stilts in Chile to an Airstream trailer in the USA and a decorated house in South Africa, the book explains why each home was constructed the way it was and lets the reader imagine what it would be like to live in that home. Laroche uses a technique called paper relief to create the three dimensional and life-like illustrations in his children’s books. His illustrations often contain as many as seven or eight planes of cut-out colored paper sections that can be more than an inch and a half thick. It is a time consuming process and Laroche has spent as long as three years on a book. In between book

contracts, Laroche works on large abstract paintings, drawings, and photo-montages and has had several exhibits of his paintings. Laroche said he makes frequent trips to Berlin to see family and friends. Copies of his new book will be available at SaVoir Flare.

DAILY CROSSWORD TRIBUNE MEDIA SERVICES

by Lynn Johnston by Scott Adams

DILBERT

By Holiday Mathis SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You’ll take on a role. The real work in playing this part will be internal, but you can’t completely deny the influence of external factors, either. For instance, your “costume” could be the element that brings it all together. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You’ll do what you do for good reason. It’s the best you can come up with at the time. And if it’s not ideal, there’s really no need to punish yourself. Simply come up with a different response. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). A special friendship will bring out your best moods and qualities. You’ll spend time enjoying yourself, learning more about the world and discovering more parts of you. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You really are bored by other people’s selfloathing and do not find this to be a suitable topic for conversation. You’ll have to steer the social discourse yourself. Local and world news will help you in the matter. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You’ll suddenly feel that making your life better is a remarkably simple process. It begins when you smile at yourself in the mirror. Then you’ll set a goal and solve a problem. TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Nov. 10). This year brings you the chance to shine in a social arena you dared not enter before. As the new one on the scene, you’ll make a difference in the way things are done. You’ll learn who has strong feelings for you in December. You’ll be excited for a loved one’s accomplishments in January. Pisces and Gemini people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 5, 19, 40, 45 and 27.

by Darby Conley

ARIES (March 21-April 19). You’ll think about how to solve a problem and help others who have the same issue. You have no time to waste in feeling insecure or overly focused on appearances. Too much is at stake. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You’ll learn about yourself because you’re not afraid to ask the deeper questions, such as “What am I really feeling?” The better you know yourself the better you’ll be able to create happiness in your life. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Stick to your plan, or at least to your original intent. Don’t allow another person’s opinion to shake your confidence or deter you. Get grounded. Remember who you are. CANCER (June 22-July 22). You’ll notice the unhealthy way people around you bond, and you’ll choose not to be a part of it. You seek only loving and balanced relationships, and that is what you’ll find. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Determine whom you can count on, and you will prevent falling into a predicament because you depended on the wrong person. An unreliable ally could also be considered an enemy. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You’ll put your money where your heart is, only buying that which contributes to the happiness and health of your family and yourself. Your dollar is a vote. It will speak louder than your voice today. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You really don’t need others to reinforce your selfesteem, but it’s always nice when they do give you a boost. Knowing this, you make a point of lifting others up whenever you have the opportunity.

STING OF SUDDEN DISINHERITANCE LEAVES GRANDCHILD FEELING HURT

DEAR ABBY: I am in a happy and healthy long-term relationship. Since neither of us wants kids, we don’t feel the need to marry. Because I don’t want children, my grandmother has decided I don’t deserve any inheritance. She has rewritten her will, leaving everything to my younger cousin who is the only grandchild likely to have children. It makes me feel awful, as though I am not worthy in her eyes because of my choice. It isn’t about the money, Abby. My feelings are hurt because my grandmother can’t accept me without a child. Is there a way to broach the subject without sounding like I’m just after her money? -- DISINHERITED GRANDCHILD IN COLORADO DEAR DISINHERITED: How do you know you have been written out of your grandmother’s will? Did she tell you or did you hear it from someone else? It would not be confrontational to tell your grandmother you were hurt when you heard the news because it made you feel “less than.” The decision whether or not to have a child is a personal one, and couples who don’t want to be parents are likely to make less than wonderful ones. Your grandmother may or may not have changed her will because of your choice, but it’s also possible that she would like her assets to be passed down to grandchildren and beyond. You’ll never know unless you ask. DEAR ABBY: What does someone who is an older adult do when she needs to be held and listened to, and when she has no one to do this with her? I’m sure I’m not the only woman who has found herself in this situation. What do others do when this is needed? Sometimes I just need to be held, listened to and reassured.

-- IOWA READER DEAR READER: The need for human contact is part of the human condition, and I can tell you what I did before I met my husband: When I was feeling down, I’d ask a friend for a hug, a willing ear and some reassurance. I can’t imagine anyone refusing. At some point everyone needs what you’re asking for. Other ways to combat the blues include staying occupied with hobbies that interest you, socializing with friends and getting regular exercise. If readers would like to chime in and share what they do, I’ll be glad to pass along their suggestions. DEAR ABBY: My husband and I stopped at a rest stop to use the facilities. I noticed a man with a little girl who appeared to be about 3 years old go into the men’s bathroom. I wanted to ask if he would like me to take the child into the women’s bathroom while he waited outside the door for me to return her to him, however I hesitated and didn’t do it. When my husband came back to the car I asked him what the child encountered in the men’s bathroom. He said she had to pass by the urinals with the men urinating. I felt terrible for not speaking up. Would it have been wrong to volunteer to take the little girl into the women’s bathroom? Perhaps I’m too sensitive to matters like this, but I haven’t seen it addressed anywhere. -- CONCERNED IN FLORIDA DEAR CONCERNED: What the child encountered when her father took her into the men’s bathroom was probably a line of men with their backs to her, and I assume he took her into the stall toilet. However, it would have been kind of you to volunteer, and probably very much appreciated.

A crowd of over 200 enjoyed the end to end action with the local heroes displaying their best impersonation of their hockey skills. The game featured a wide array of age and skill levels at both ends of the ice and made for some entertaining moments.

The CAC-CC brings together all pieces of a multidisciplinary team to one child friendly, neutral location so that one interview can be conducted and all relevant parties are represented and working together from day one of the investigation.
