Local students shine at Junior Science and Humanities Symposium BY MELISSA GRIMA THE BERLIN DAILY SUN

BERLIN — The efforts of two local high school seniors, who each decided to expand on classroom projects independently, has earned the students high praise. So high, in fact, that one will travel to present his project nationally next month at what Gorham High School science teacher, Sarah Clemmitt calls “the premiere high school competition in the nation.” Each of the two students utilized technology available at the local schools to augment their research and their efforts resulted in big returns. Shamus Wheeler, a Berlin High School student and Milan resident, placed third in the oral presentations for the Northern New England Region at the Junior Science and Humanities Symposium (JSHS) at UNH on March

29-30. The top two finishers win automatic selection to travel to Bethesda, Md., for the national JSHS. One of the top two declined the invite, leaving Shamus bound for the D.C. area where he will again present his research titled, Glyceraldehyde 3-Phosphate Dehydrogenase in Nemesia Fruticans. The Department of Defense funds the cost of travel and attendance, since the JSHS is sponsored by the US Department of the Army, US Department of the Navy, and US Department of the Air Force. Gorham High School senior Kyle Fortin, also participated in the JSHS event, placing second in the poster presentations for the Northern New England Region. His high finish was a result of his engineering project that included designing a working prototype of a see SHINE page 8

Tombstone tussle

ROSCOE, Ill. (NY Times) — The original tombstone of Lee Harvey Oswald may not rest here in peace much longer. Not that it has rested anywhere for very long. In the nearly 50 years since Oswald, the presumed assassin of President John F. Kennedy, was buried in Texas, the grave marker has been stolen from a cemetery, recovered by the police, hidden away for safekeeping, and passed around among distant relatives of the family that bought the home of Oswald’s mother after she died. Now one of those family members is determined to pursue whatever legal action it takes to get it back from its current home, an automotive museum in this rural Illinois town. “Look, they screwed us out of it,” said David Card, 72, who said that his step-cousin’s wife did not own the stone when she sold it two years ago. The 130-pound slab of history — engraved with Oswald’s name, dates (Oct. 18, 1939 - Nov. 24, 1963) and a cross — now sits encased and on display at the Historic Automotive Attractions museum in Roscoe, a small town 90 miles northwest of Chicago near the Wisconsin border. The museum opened in 2001 showcasing a collection of race cars, but it has since expanded into a quirky montage of history, politics and Hollywood. Its collection of Kennedy memorabilia is set between the limousines of other American presidents and three Batmobiles.

China seeks to contain fallout from scandal

––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– WORLD/NATION–––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––

BEIJING (NY Times) — The ruling Communist Party sought to swiftly close ranks on Wednesday, hoping to move beyond a mortifying scandal that has exposed a leadership split and threatens to lay bare corruption in the party’s highest ranks. A day after removing a once powerful official, Bo Xilai, from the party’s Politburo and naming his wife as the main suspect in the murder of a British businessman, the party’s conduit for official pronouncements, the Peo-

ple’s Daily, published a front-page commentary ordering its members to “consciously unify out thoughts” and rally around the party’s Central Committee and its general secretary, President Hu Jintao. Party censors moved at the same time to scrub the Internet of unapproved references to the affair, blocking all mention of Bo family members and related figures as well as the many nicknames and puns that microbloggers have employed to chat about

the scandal while evading censorship. Bo, 62, had won widespread popularity and become a rival to the party’s mainstream leaders with an aggressive effort to create an egalitarian society with hints of neo-Maoism in Chongqing, the city-state where he was party secretary. But he also enriched himself and his family in the free-wheeling atmosphere of the economic boom, raising questions of corruption, and he backed harsh police crackdowns.

Launch was factor before U.S. tightens rules on antibiotics use for livestock U.S. pact with N. Korea (NY Times) — Farmers and ranchers will for the first time be required to get a prescription from a veterinarian before using antibiotics in cattle, pigs, chickens and other animals, federal food regulators announced on Wednesday. Officials hope the move will slow the indiscriminate use of the drugs, which has made them increasingly ineffective in humans. The Food and Drug Administration has been taking small steps to try to curb the use of antibiotics

on farms, but federal officials said that requiring prescriptions would lead to meaningful reductions in the agricultural use of antibiotics, which are given to promote animal growth. The drug resistance that has developed from that practice has been a growing problem for years and has rendered a number of antibiotics used in humans less and less effective, with deadly consequences. Initially, the F.D.A. is asking drug makers to voluntarily change their labels to require a prescrip-

HONG KONG (NY Times) — Less than six weeks after North Korea signed an accord with the Obama administration to limit its nuclear activities, the rogue nation is poised to launch a long-range rocket — raising questions about why the North went to the trouble to negotiate in the first place. Even more ominous than the firing of the ballistic missile equipped with a satellite, is the likelihood of a follow-up nuclear detonation that may well be a test of a new weapon built with highly enriched uranium. In moving ahead with the launch of the rocket, which according to reports was being readied with fuel Wednesday, North Korea was in many respects behaving as usual: willfully, without regard for United Nations resolutions, and paying no heed to its biggest patron, China. Just as the former leader, Kim Jong-il, flouted the Bush and early Obama administrations, so is the new leader, his son, Kim Jung-un, defying the Obama White House.

SHELBURNE — The vacancy in the kindergarten classroom at Ed Fenn School has been filled. Erica Tardiff was named to the position for the 2012-13 school year, Superintendent Paul Bousquet announced at Tuesday’s GRS Cooperative School Board meeting. Tardiff was selected from a field of around 120 applicants, said Ed Fenn Principal Karen Cloutier. She currently teaches in Bath, but has local connections with the Tardiff family in Berlin. Cloutier said that the position will teach kindergarten for the first year and then see Tardiff “loopVICTORY from page one

cases, are probably the most difficult to try in a successful manner,” Temple says. “They’re just profoundly difficult to win because of the allegations against your client.” Because of that, Temple says, many of these cases result in plea deals rather than trials. In this case, one detail in the report by the two arresting officers stuck out: the statement “I continued the booking process during the observation period.” In New Hampshire, Temple says, officers are required to conduct a 20-minute observation period on DWI suspects before administering a Breathalyzer. The language in the report made Temple wonder whether the procedure had been followed correctly, and after researching the statute and regulation, Laflamme found that it hadn’t: Officers are required to closely observe the alleged drunk driver for 20 minutes before they administer the test to ensure that the person doesn’t compromise the test by burping, belching, vomiting or inserting foreign items in his or her mouth. According to the report, the officers had photographed and fingerprinted the woman and conducted a full interview during that time. “Our strategy for the cross-examinations was to have Emily lay in the bushes and have the officers think, ‘What the heck are these people doing?’” Temple says. “It was a risky strategy, but it wasn’t, because we had absolutely nothing else to go on

ing” up with her class to team teach in the first grade the following year. That “looping” will involve a first grade teacher then moving in to the kindergarten classroom and the cycle repeating. The GRS Cooperative School Board approved Tardiff and all proposed staff re-nominations for the upcoming school year in a unanimous vote. In other business, the board accepted the resignation of Randolph representative Ron Ouellette. Ouellette resigned upon finding work out of the area after losing his employment when Isaacson Steel closed. The board will advertise the open seat for interested Randolph residents.

in that case.” Laflamme, who is also a student in UNH Law’s Daniel Webster Scholar Honors Program, spent upwards of 30 hours on the case: researching, working on the trial strategy and preparing the cross-examinations, practicing and drafting a motion to dismiss argument. “She did everything from, really, the beginning to the end in this case,” says Temple. When Laflamme began to crossexamine the first police officer, she says, he didn’t realize the approach she was taking. His answers confirmed the defense’s theory that the officers had misused the waiting period. The second officer seemed to realize Laflamme’s approach midway through her cross-examination, Temple says, but the damage had already been done: The judge dismissed the case, claiming that the integrity of the test had been compromised. As for the trial, Laflamme says, it was “terrifying” but exhilarating. And the experience confirmed that she is ready to practice criminal law. “Now I have the confidence to know that I can definitely do it,” she says. Temple agrees: “It is abundantly clear that Emily’s legal education, combined with both externship and clinical experiences, have produced a client-ready lawyer.” A Berlin High graduate, Laflamme is the daughter of Larry and Martha Laflamme of Berlin.

National Wildlife Refuge is not in any way threatening traditional activities To the editor: I feel compelled to write in support of Umbagog National Wildlife Refuge because of recent attacks questioning the value of the refuge and its policies. Let’s clarify some things. First, the refuge is not in any way threatening traditional activities such as hunting or snowmobiling. The refuge has always allowed hunting, fishing, trapping, and snowmobiling and has no plans to change this. In fact the refuge protects public access with in its boundaries. In contrast, extensive private ownership and development around Lake Umbagog and surrounding areas would likely result in no trespassing signs and restriction of public use. Second, the refuge is a very important economic asset for the town of Errol and northern Coos County. There have been articles about the Refuge in the “New York Times”, the “Boston Globe” and in several national outdoor magazines, as well as in local papers and tourist brochures. Thousands of visitors come to the refuge every summer from all over the northeast and some from more distant locations and these tourists help support businesses such as LL Cote, the Wentworth store, and Northern Waters, as well as more distant stores in Milan, Berlin, and Bethel, Maine. The refuge benefits the local community in other ways. Most of their equipment and supplies are purchased

locally and the refuge runs a Youth Civilian Conservation program in the summer which hires local teenagers who are paid and also learn about wildlife and conservation. Third, the refuge does not force anyone to sell their property. Land acquisition is only from willing sellers, mostly paper, timber, and investment companies. On lands that have been acquired where camp owners were leasing land, they have been allowed to continue to use their camps for 50 years. If this land had been sold to a private developer, it is very likely these camp owners would not have been able to continue using their camps. Finally, perhaps the one valid concern about expansion of the refuge is that this removes land from the tax base. This is an issue which affects many towns in New Hampshire that have federal lands within their boundaries. The solution to this is that Congress needs to adequately fund the payment in lieu of taxes program and also should compensate for any other revenues lost due to federal acquisition. I own property in Errol and my taxes have gone up, but most of this, I believe, is due to increased property value assessment. For those of us who live close enough to enjoy Umbagog Wildlife Refuge on a year round basis, we should be thankful that this beautiful area of northern see REFUGE page 5

Once upon a Berlin Time Granite State Rubber Company

Poof Tardiff

1965

Hello fellow Berlinites. I would like to convey to my readers a short history of some of the events that took place in the “City that Trees Built” forty-seven years ago. Miss 1965 for Berlin was a daughter born to Mr. and Mrs. Larry Glover of Milan at 5:20 pm on Friday January 1, 1965. This little girl, who is now 47 years old, was the first baby of the New Year born at the St. Louis Hospital. On Thursday January 7, 1965 the great publisher of the Berlin Reporter, Thomas Houlihan passed away. Houlihan, who was 83 years old had been with this local newspaper for more than one half a century. He died at the St. Vincent De Paul Nursing Home where he had been a resident for nearly nine months. Both he and his brother John, who passed on in 1963, came to Berlin in 1912 and purchased the Berlin paper. These two brothers had conducted circulation campaigns for newspapers throughout the United States prior to coming here from Susquehanna, Pennsylvania. They acquired what was then called the Barney Reporter Press, which was then publishing the Reporter from C.R. Davis. The Berlin Publishing Company was formed in 1921 with John Houlihan as president and Thomas Houlihan as secretary treasurer. Both men were active in the affairs of the N. H. Weekly Publishers Association and the New England Press Association. Houlihan’s internment was in the Calvary Cemetery in Berlin. The headline picture for January 14, 1965 showed two Berlin girls who were running for queen of the Nansen’s Ski Club’s winter carnival. . They were Miss Thomas F. Houlihan Bobbie Hood and Miss Anita Blouin. Both girls were employed at the Granite State rubber Company. The eventual winner for this year was Miss Hood. The accompanying picture shows Miss Hood on top and Miss Blouin on the bottom. The middle and the end of January saw two major fires take place in the city of Berlin, with second one taking the life of a local resident. On Monday January 18, an overheated stove pipe was judged as the probable cause of a fire that destroyed the home of Mr. and Mrs. Joseph A. Beaudoin at 106 Granite

Queen contestants

Street. Mr. Beaudoin lit a fire in woodstove of his workshop so that he could work on his outboard motor and a blaze broke out in the adjacent garage through which a stove pipe passed. In no time at all, the garage was full of smoke and by the time a call was made to the fire department, flames were everywhere. The smoke that billowed into the air over 100 feet could be seen by the firemen as they started up High Street and the fire was already scorching the neighboring houses. The two story building used the first floor for the Beaudoin’s home and the second floor was for storage of the Lionel Furniture Company. This second floor remained a mass of flames for more than one hour and a half, burning all the over stuffed mattresses that were there. This fire also destroyed two cars and a truck that were in another garage owned by Joseph Lavoie, after the flames leaped across the driveway. The all out signal was not sounded until six and one half hours later and three firemen stayed throughout the night to keep watch for any outbreak. As luck may have it, engine one had to return to the scene the following morning, when some second floor material started to burn with good sized flames. Mr. Beaudoin said that he and his wife had lived at this residence since 1920. On January 31, 1965, the explosion of an see 1965 page 5

Sen. Shaheen appeared very concerned about way the National Wildlife Refuge is affecting our area To the editor: Last week I attended a town meeting affair and had a chance to meet with Sen. Shaheen. I gave her copies of my petition concerning the Umbagog Wildlife Refuge. I had over 800 signatures on it. A week ago my computer was hacked and every email I received about the refuge, including petitions totaling over 200 signatures, were taken out of my account. Only the emails concerning the refuge were taken. I am still getting petitions in and will immediately print them out and forward them to our legislators. Sen. Shaheen appeared very concerned about the way the Refuge is affecting our area, especially when I talked about our little school’s future. She promised me that she would be in touch with me and our local leaders. I also spoke with J.T. Horne of Trust for Public Lands. They are based in San Francisco, California, and are basically real estate brokers for the

Feds. They buy the land and hold it in escrow until the Feds get their money to buy it from them. They just bought a camp on leased land that the owner had been trying to sell. All they bought was the building valued at $25,000. The land already was owned by Paul Casey. TPL paid $94,000 for that camp building. In all probability, Paul Casey will buy that building from TPL and burn it. I suggested to Mr. Horne that they could get all the donors who provide money for his “non-profit” organization, and have them come for a big hot dog roast and watch over $94,000 of taxpayer money go up in smoke. Just a month and a half ago, Mr. Horne piously expressed concern for our plight at a selectman’s meeting and said that they were done seeking out new property in Errol. These guys are hypocrites and people wonder why we don’t trust them? This week I am meeting with Sen. see CONCERNED page 8

dollars a year. It was the second addition to this building since the plant opened in 1957. By now, the building on Willow Street was being used only for storage, but the Wight Street operation was still going strong. With the new equipment in Plant 1, it was now possible for this company to turn out 4,950 pairs of high grade basketball shoes each day. This was an area that had a strong market back then. This market targeted everyone from the professional basketball players to the person who just liked walking in “sneakers”.The new section of the Granite State with its equipment resulted in the hiring of nine more men and forty five more women. Although the number of employees was a bit less than Manager John O’Neal had anticipated. A change in demand of molded footwear forced a cut back. Mr. O’Neal said the company had been working on some new styles which would help boost employment in the near future, but I do not know if this ever transpired. Many of Berlin’s older generation remembers working at this company and having a decent job. With the paper mills in operation and the Granite State humming along, Berlin’s economy was doing well. But the shoe business, like many other companies went to another country that had cheaper labor and the struggle for this city to survive got tougher as these companies left and closed. This left a great workforce of unemployed people in this area that had to go elsewhere for work. I will continue with my short history of the year 1965 in my next writing. Questions or comments email poof@ ne.rr.com. Also, join the many fans of “Once upon a Berlin Time” on Facebook and guess at the weekly mystery picture.

New Hampshire is protected and will be preserved for the enjoyment of future generations, and we should keep in mind that this is a national oil container on a kitchen stove at 400 Standard Street, resulted in the death of 65 year-old Arthur J. Lemieux. Lemieux passed away on Monday, February 1, after receiving severe burns in the fire early Sunday morning. Son-in-law Steven and daughter Pauline Seaborne, who were visiting at the time, were also hospitalized from burns they had received. Mrs. Seaborne was able to escape from the house through a window in the downstairs bedroom, in which she and her husband were asleep. The firemen found Mr. Seaborne unconscious by the same window. With time running out, it took another eight minutes to find Mr. Lemieux in the smoke filled house. They had quickly searched through his bedroom, the kitchen and a second floor bedroom without success. They finally found him about two feet from the back door. Lemieux had burns over most of his body and was immediately transported to the hospital, sadly passing away twenty-two hours later. As for the Seabornes, they were both burned on their arms, face, back and hands, but after some confinement in the hospital, they were okay. Fires are always a serious thing and when a death occurs, it is remembered by family and friends for a lifetime. On the brighter side to the start of 1965 in Berlin, things were beginning to roll for the Granite State Rubber Company’s newest addition and that meant another $250,000 coming into Berlin’s economy. Employment at this company had risen to 931 and more people were going to be hired for the expanded operations. This new supplement helped to swell the Granite State’s payroll to almost three and one quarter million

Consumers are protected by the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act According to the Car Care Council, consumers are protected by the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act and the general principles of the Federal Trade Commission. which prohibit a manufacturer from voiding the vehicle warranty because service was done by a non-dealer. Specifically, the language states, ‘’No warrantor of a consumer product may condition his written or implied warranty of such product on’ the consumer’s using, in connection with such an article or service provided without charge under the terms of the warranty) which is identified by brand, trade or corporate name except that the prohibition of tbis subsection may be waived by the commission if - (1) the warrantor satisfies the commission that the warranted product will function properly only if the article or service so identified is used in connection with the warranted product, and (2) the commission :finds that such a waiver is in the public interest (http://uscode. house.gov/download/pls/15C50.txt.).

When using a non-dealer, independent aftermarket shop to maintain your vehicle, the council strongly recommends keeping records and receipts for all maintenance that is done to the vehicle and adhering to scheduled maintenance requirements. If a warranty claim arises, these records will provide proof that maintenance has been done in accordance with the manufacturers’ recommendations and requirements. To locate a non-dealer, independent aftermarket facility, vehicle owners should visit the council’s Web site, www.carcare.org, which has a searchable list of about 70,000 independent repair facilities, auto parts retailers, body shops and engine installers and rebuilders. Many independent repair centers also have Web sites that include information about their services and credentials. Automotive aftennarket trade associations, the Better Business Bureau and AAA are also resources to use to locate a repair facility.

Mr. Auto

Do I have to go to the dealer for my new car’s maintenance? True or false: Until your vehicle is out-of-warranty, all maintenance services 1) Just be done at the car dearlership or your factory warranty will be void. Although you may have answered “true”, the correct answer is “false”, according to the Car Care Council. It’s the law that independent repair shops can provide the services to maintain your new car warranty.

“It’s a common misconception that only care dealers can perform the maintenance services on a newer vehicles that is under warranty,” said Rich White, executive director, Car Care Council. “Clearly, consumers can have maintenance services done by their local independent service shop without affecting your warranty, even though dealers and manufacturers often suggest the opposite.

Be wise. Get an early start on your vehicle inspection, in case there are repairs needed to pass state inspection. We have diagnostic equipment which can save you time and money and avoid costly and unnecessary

repairs. Don’t delay! Call 752-1266 today. Also, just a reminder to Berlin residents! Please ask for your tire disposal permit when you register your vehicle.

With the spring season in swing, now is a smart time to give your vehi-

cles some TLC. Wight Street Car first tip is to visit one of their three self serve bays and thoroughly wash your vehicles using their high pressure wand, foaming brush and rinse cycle. Second tip: Don't forget the wax option. Waxing helps maintain your vehicles paint job and prevents damage such as scratches, rust or oxidation. Third tip: Don't forget the inside. Car mats and carpeting inside a vehicle deserve extra attention, especially after a snowy winter. A little vacuuming, spot stain lifters and carpet cleaner can to a long way and get rid of the musty odor from the damp outdoors. Finally, if you find yourself spring cleaning your home, don't forget your vehicles. They will thank you for it, and so will your wallet. So, visit Wight Street Car Wash in Berlin and make your vehicles shine!

Your Tire Connection

Driving technique and proper vehicle maintenance can go a long way toward protecting the environment and conserving fuel. The Car Care Council suggests five easy ways to turn your car into a mean, green driving machine – for your wallet and the environment. Drive Green – Recognize that how you drive has a lot to do with fuel economy. Avoid sudden starts and stops and go the speed limit. Jerky and aggressive driving decreases your miles per gallon (MPG) and increases wear and tear on your vehicle. Minimize

unnecessary miles by combining errands in one trip. Check Tire Pressure – Each year, about two billion gallons of gas could be saved if the tires on every American’s car were properly inflated. Optimal tire pressure for your vehicle is listed in the owner’s manual. Tires that are not properly inflated add rolling resistance that makes the engine work harder to move the vehicle. All of this increases fuel costs as much as three to five cents per gallon, and increases the risk of engine damage.

new battery operated consumer product. Both young men got started on these award-winning projects through classroom projects. Kyle began his work in a physics class, where the students were assigned a project requiring them to design a battery operated device that didn’t already exist. Shamus started working on his research while studying at St. Paul’s School in Concord over the summer. Shamus explained that in the Advanced Studies summer program his class isolated a gene in the common landscape plant Nemesia. His teacher at St. Paul’s mentioned that the project could be taken further and Shamus did just that. Faced with a fall semester that offered no science classes he hadn’t already taken, he struck a deal with the BHS science department to work on an independent study, said Dept. Chair Kevin Carpenter. Shamus would be able to continue researching the genetics and proteins of the plant, with the agreement that he would submit the finished research for consideration to the JSHS. That’s just what he did. Shamus took the isolated gene, sent it to a lab for sequencing to determine the order of nucleotides and then independently analyzed that sequence. As a result, he was able to generate a 3-D representation of the protein that gene would create. He submitted his project entry to JSHS as agreed and was one of just five student researchers from Maine, N.H., and Vt., chosen to orally present their work at the UNH session. “I was really honored to be selected in the top five,” Shamus said. His finish in Durham earned him not only the trip to Bethesda, but also a $1,000 Army-Navy-Air Force scholarship. At the national event 96 high school students will present their various research projects in an event established in 1958 with the purpose of increasing the number of highly trained scientists and engineers in the U.S. By promoting research and experimentation at the high school level. This was Berlin High School’s first entry to JSHS, Carpenter said. Shamus explained that while much of his research project simply utilized the scientific method some of the independent work was challenging. He noted that trying to use the necessary software with just written scientific protocols as a guide resulted in a lot of trial and error. He said that in order to prepare for the national symposium he will likely refine his oral presentation slightly and is looking forward to the networking opportunity. CONCERNED from page 5

Ayotte’s people and we are looking forward to our June 23, meeting with all our legislators. More and more people are speaking out and with the budget crunch hitting Washington, hopefully the beast will be starved. Our federal leaders are starting to see that it is time to rein in this unelected bureaucracy along with its arrogant manager. That word “arrogant” was used several times by speakers. It is time for some overdue changes at the Refuge and some well-deserved layoffs. When loggers, truckers, and even area teachers are being cut due to budget constraints and road postings, there is no way to justify

This poster shows the product created by GHS senior Kyle Fortin, which he displayed at the regional Junior Science and Humanities Symposium held at UNH in Durham recently. (COURTESY PHOTO)

Kyle was one of 10 entrants chosen to present their research in poster form. He took his battery powered design for an insert for a car that would keep a coffee cup warm, and took it to the prototype stage. “It’s a different kind of project than your traditional experiment,” Clemmitt said. The device plugs into a car lighter and could be used in any vehicle. Clemmitt said the project started in physics class but Kyle took advantage of things he learned in an engineering class at BHS and was helped by BHS staff to create the computer modeled plastic that went into the prototype. His research involved patent searches, CAD drawings, and devising a wiring system along with the plastic construction. Clemmitt said this was the third time GMHS has participated in the regional JSHS, but the first time they had gained recognition at this level. Kyle’s second place poster earned him a $200 cash prize. Kyle is planning on majoring in mechanical engineering and is still deciding which college he will attend. Shamus is planning on majoring in biomedical engineering. He is planning to attend Renssalaer Polytechnic Institute in the fall. He will compete at the National JSHS on May 2. The Academy of Applied Science, a non-profit educational organization in Concord, New Hampshire, administers the National JSHS Program. The regional JSHS at the University of New Hampshire (UNH) is co-operatively sponsored by the College of Engineering and Physical Sciences and the College of Life Sciences and Agriculture. spending $800,000 on that refuge, yearly, just for operating expenses. Send those leeches packing and spend the money on our roads so several hundred loggers and truckers can keep working the whole year. Our land, the beloved loons and that eagle will do just fine after the Federal bureaucrats are gone. They have done enough damage to our towns and villages. It is time to go back to la-la land, aka – Washington, and time for TPL to work on town forests, not federal land grabs. If not, then please go back to San Franfreako, California, and leave us alone.

DILBERT

By Holiday Mathis always meant for this. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). When a project stalls, it gives you time to do the thing you wanted to be doing in the first place: taking care of your personal life. Your people need the brand of attention only you can give. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You have nothing to hide, and yet a certain someone keeps telling you secrets for your ears only. If it’s becoming burdensome to carry the weight of this load, request an end to your tenure as confidante. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Obviously, you’re not going to be motivated to accomplish anything in an arena that bores you to tears. Begin the quest for a more interesting environment. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You’re an important member of your community, even when all you’re doing is spreading good will with the decency of your cheerful smile. Friendly faces will be everywhere you go today. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). That so-called “friend” who burned you long ago will do the same again if you allow it to happen -- and if you do, you’ll have no one to blame but yourself. So protect yourself and stay aware. TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (April 12). Developments in your personal life allow you to experience more love than ever. It starts with a gift you give to someone this month. You’ll make valuable connections with people from a different background in May. You’re ready for adventure in June. Loved ones depend on you, and you make them proud. Cancer and Sagittarius people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 7, 31, 48, 18 and 20.

by Darby Conley

ARIES (March 21-April 19). When you are afraid, your hair stands on end. In primitive times when humans were downright furry, this made a difference, as the human would appear bigger to predators. Today, you’ll find other ways to appear big. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You can’t control the weather, but you can control how you react to it. You’re in a flexible mood now and will instantly adapt to whatever comes your way. Someone new takes notice, impressed by your easy confidence. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You’ll be drawn to a mystery. Is this dangerous? Maybe, and that’s definitely part of the allure. Your curiosity may get the best of you, and you’ll love the daring mood this puts you in. CANCER (June 22-July 22). Noises won’t hurt you, but they certainly can break your concentration and distract you from your desired focus. You’ll have to make an extra effort to find a quiet place on this bustling, cacophonous day. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You’ll be in one of your generous moods -- times three. You’ll give and keep giving until you fall asleep tonight. The good you send into the world will boomerang back to you. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You’ll be disillusioned with someone. You projected your own desires onto the relationship, and human nature can be so unfair. The good news is that the person you were looking for really is out there. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You’re ready to step into the position you’ve had your eye on for some time. You’ll be filling big shoes, but that doesn’t scare you. It’s as though you were

$1-A-DAY CLASSIFIEDS • CALL 752-5858 by Abigail Van Buren

MIGRAINE SUFFERER IS GIVEN FRESH REMEDIES TO CHEW ON

DEAR ABBY: I’d like to respond to the letter from “Hurting in Virginia Beach, Va.” (Feb. 6), who complained that the smell of mint chewing gum triggers her migraines. Many gum chewers, like me, have good reasons for doing it. I chew gum on planes because it helps reduce sinus pressure, thus preventing my own headaches. I am also a former smoker, and gum-chewing is a healthier alternative to tobacco. If “Hurting” explained her situation to me, I would certainly abide by her request to not chew, although I would find it uncomfortable to go without for long. I recommend she carry several packs of non-mint gum in her purse. When forced into close proximity with a gum-chewer, she could then offer him or her an acceptable alternative. I believe she will almost certainly find people more receptive to her needs that way. -- DAVE IN SPRING HILL, FLA. DEAR DAVE: Your commonsense suggestion was the one most often repeated by my readers. I advised “Hurting” that whether at a concert or on a plane, she could ask to be moved away from an “offender.” My readers comment: DEAR ABBY: I propose a different solution. She should purchase one (or several) of those surgical masks that cover the mouth and nose. They come in a variety of styles, and she could surely find one that would block her sense of smell. This way she won’t have to risk a confrontation or depend on a third party to get involved. Once she detects the offensive smell, she can just put on her mask, no one gets bothered and everyone’s happy. -- TIM IN SALEM, ORE. DEAR ABBY: I sympathize with “Hurting.” I am a migraine sufferer myself. The smell of many perfumes, lotions, cleaning agents, tobacco smoke -- even some foods -- can trigger a migraine. Because it is nearly impossible to control

what other people wear, clean with or eat, I have found it much easier over the years to make sure I always carry some medication with me whenever I go out. Being able to take my medication the minute I sense a migraine coming on has prevented many events from ending badly for me. -- FEELING HER PAIN IN NEW YORK DEAR ABBY: I have a deadly allergy to oranges. The smell alone can bring me very close to anaphylactic shock, but more often just causes a migraine like “Hurting’s.” I have a small bottle of eucalyptus oil I take with me and place a drop or two under my nose. This will stop the reaction. Hope this information helps. -- VERNELLE IN CALIFORNIA DEAR ABBY: Your advice was spot on as far as asking the gum chewer to discard the gum, or to be reseated in a theater. But often the house is full, or the plane has no empty seats and no one will switch. As I suffer from similar issues, my father found me a device called a personal air purifier. It hangs around your neck (or sits in your lap) and literally cleans the air you breathe. It is battery-operated and goes everywhere. It has saved me tons of embarrassment when dealing with other people in small spaces. -- RACHEL IN CHERRY HILL, N.J. DEAR ABBY: “Hurting” needs to take preventive action when she makes her concert reservation. Simply ask for an aisle seat (for her) and the one beside it (where her husband will sit). Of course, it will be slightly more difficult on a plane because of closer quarters, but she can still make sure her husband is sitting between her and the offender as a buffer, which might help a little. -- LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION

Kennett’s Massa no-hits Mounties in opener, 10-0 BY JEAN LEBLANC THE BERLIN DAILY SUN

CONWAY--Kennett’s varsity baseball pitcher Nick Massa made a statement to all Division II baseball teams on Monday in Conway. The Eagle ace tossed a tidy no-run no-hit game against the Berlin Mountaineers 10-0. The Berlin boys are a strong team in Division III and only got one runner on board and that was sophomore Ryan Richard getting a free pass in the top of the fourth inning. Massa struck out seven in five innings of work after the Kennett squad ended the contest in the bottom of the fifth inning via the 10-run rule. That made Berlin starting pitcher Curtis Arsenault absorb just his seventh loss of his high school career. Arsenault went the first two and a third innings before being replaced by Trevor Leborgne. The Mounties were without three key players. Mountie Jeff O’Neil may be getting to the practice field by the end of this week. O’Neil is coming off a

leg injury. Kennett’s offense scored three in the first and third innings. The Eagles score two times each in the second and fifth innings. The Mounties hurt themselves by committing five errors in the field. Offensive heroes for the home team included Drew in the first inning, Massa in the second, Rivera and Chick in the third inning and Garner and Chick in the fifth inning. “It was nice to finally get out onto the field and take a good look at what we’ve got,” said new Berlin coach Nathan Roberge. “We got a lot of inexperience and we’ll get better every time we go on the field.” The Mountaineers will play host to Belmont on Friday at 3:30 p.m. at Memorial field.

NORTH CONWAY--Kennett’s Kaylin Sania had three hits and scored three times, leading the Kennett Eagles to a 7-6 extra inning victory over Berlin in Conway Monday. Berlin jumped out to a 2-0 lead in the second inning, using RBI singles from Morgan Ouellet and Rachel Thompson. In the fifth inning, Megan Hood doubled and scored on a Carly Perreault triple. Perreault scored to make it a 5-1 contest on an Erin Holt RBI double. The Eagles scored four runs in the bottom of the fifth inning and went a head 6-5 scoring a single run in the bottom of the 6th inning. “We didn’t field the

bunts very well in the fifth inning,” said head coach Rollie Poirier. “We let the game get away from us a little. We will work on those situations this week in practice.” In the top of the seventh inning, the Lady Mountaineers put on their rally caps and tied things up on a Thompson double. Perreault moved Thompson to third base on a ground out. Holt stroked a long fly ball to get Thompson home to make it 6-6. That set up the Sania heroics in the bottom of the eighth. She singled and immediately stole second base. The Eagles used the bunt to move Sania to third base, however an errant throw to first base allowed her to score the game winning run. see EAGLES page 15

Boy’s tennis team cruises past Sanborn, 8-1 BY JEAN LEBLANC THE BERLIN DAILY SUN

SANBORN--The Berlin boys’ tennis team won five of their six single matches and went on to defeat Sanborn Regional High School 8-1 in a boys’ Division III tennis contest in Sanborn Friday. In the singles matches, Berlin #1 seed Dimitiri Giannos defeated Chris Matthews 8-3, senior Jake Drouin fought off Sanborn’s Nick Stafford 8-4, Mountie Cameron Patry shut out Steve Soterakopoulos 8-0, #4 seed Quinn Morrissette duplicated Patry earning an 8-0 victory over Kyle Telina, Berlin’s Brad Frenette silenced Indian Pat DeAngelis 8-0, and youngster Justin Berthiaume lost to Sanborn’s Steven Arata 5-8. With the match in hand, Berlin swept the doubles play to make the final score 8-1. Berlin’s Giannos

and Drouin 8-0 over Matthews and Stafford, #2 duo Patry and Morrissette fought off Soterakopoulos and Arata 8-5, and Berlin’s Frenette and NIck Fodor defeated Sanborn’s DeAngelis and Tyler Sirois 8-2. “Could definitely see a difference since the first match,” said Berlin mentor Andy Rancloes. “They seemed more relaxed and able to anticipate shots. I was very proud of Brad, after his first outing against Prospect he was able to step up and play flawless tennis shutting out his opponent. We still need to work on our doubles, communication is key. For two of the three pairs it is their first time playing with each other so they are still trying to get a feel for each other.” The Berlin boys will be right back in action on Tuesday afternoon, hosting Profile in Gorham.

Topping off your gas tank when filling up your car can also release harmful vapors into the environment. “These five simple steps will help minimize the amount of pollutants from your vehicle and keep more ‘green’ in your wallet through better fuel economy,” said Rich White, executive director, Car Care Council. “Vehicle owners who do their own maintenance should remember to recycle or properly dispose of fluids and other vehicle components, including used motor oil, tires and batteries.” More information about environmental awareness is included in the popular digital Car Care Guide that can be easily accessed through the council’s newly-updated website at www.carcare.org.

On the mound, Kennett’s Vonde Saunders threw well enough to get the win. Saunder’s allowed eight hits, walked and hit a batter, while setting down four Berlin hitters on strikes. Senior Megan Hood surrendered seven hits, walked two, and

Get a Tune-Up – Regular tuneups, maintenance and having clean air filters will help your car pollute less and burn less gas. With a proper tune-up, you can save four percent on the cost of gas and up to 40 percent by replacing a faulty oxygen sensor. Simply changing the car’s air filter can improve efficiency by 10 percent. Lighten the Load – Get the junk out of the trunk and the stuff out of your car, with the exception of emergency items such as a spare tire, flares and a first-aid kit. Extra items weigh the vehicle down and cause an increase in gas usage. Gas Caps and Fill-Ups – Check your vehicle’s gas cap. Loose, damaged or missing gas caps cause millions of gallons of gas to evaporate
