PRO IS BACK!
BY CRAIG LYONS THE BERLIN DAILY SUN
LANCASTER— The Coos County Commissioners decided to switch health insurance providers and save the county nearly $200,000. The county will switch from Primex’s plan, which is Harvard Pilgrim, to the Local Government Center’s plan, which is Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield. County Administrator Suzanne Collins said chang-
ing the insurance plans could save the county almost $200,000. Collins said Primex delivered the county’s insurance figures with a 14.74 percent increase. She added Primex also said it’s getting out of the health insurance business in 2012. Meanwhile, Collins said a L.G.C. representative contacted her and said the quote for the county’s insursee SWITCHES page 7

Clearing done, construction to come for wind farm project BY BARBARA TETREAULT THE BERLIN DAILY SUN
PHILLIPS BROOK - Construction of the 33-turbine Granite Reliable Power wind farm is expected to get under way next month with the first turbine scheduled to arrive Aug. 15. Project Manager Pip Decker delivered an update on the project to the Coos planning board last week and in a follow-up phone interview. Decker said site clearing got underway Feb. 12 and all of the site work was completed by the end of March. He said the project is currently shut down for mud season but construction is expected to begin in early May. Throughout the summer, work on the roads, turbine foundations, the substation, and overhead electrical system will take place. Decker said the first turbines will be delivered in August along the Fishbone Ridgeline and will take about three weeks to erect. As promised, Decker said the general contract, RMT of Madison, Wis., has been working to hire local subcontractors on the project. AB Logging of Lancaster and Hick Logging of Jefferson were hired to do the site clearing. see WIND FARM page 7

LANCASTER— The County Commissioners approved a request to contract with a firm to provide high-speed Internet access to the county complex in West Stewartstown. County Administrator Suzanne Collins presented the commissioners with a request to approve a three-year agreement with Hampshire Vanguard Technology Associates to install a high-speed Internet line at the county’s West Stewartstown complex. She said high-speed Internet is essential to the county’s operations, which include the nursing home, county administration and the house of corrections. Collins said, in her report to the commissioners, that high speed Internet would benefit the county since the nursing hospital could use it as e-pharmacy programs and electronic records systems are deployed, and the Department of Corrections uses it for video conferencing. Superintendent of Corrections Craig Hamelin said just see INTERNET page 6

Writer for ‘I Love Lucy’ dies
(NY Times) — Madelyn Pugh Davis, who with her writing partners for the classic sitcom “I Love Lucy” concocted zany scenes in which the harebrained Lucy dangles from a hotel balcony, poses as a sculpture or stomps and wrestles in a vat full of grapes, died Wednesday at her home in the Bel Air section of Los Angeles. She was 90. Clever turns of the phrase were not grist for the comedy mill that Ms. Davis, along with Bob Carroll Jr. and the producer Jess Oppenheimer, began running out of a studio back office in 1951. With Ms. Davis clacking away at the typewriter and her partners pacing around her, the basic premise was to come up with ludicrous physical predicaments for the show’s star, Lucille Ball, to get herself into — to the eternal consternation of her husband, played by her real-life husband, the bandleader Desi Arnaz, who was also one of the show’s producers. Lucy would be plopped in a bucket of cement, scampering about a bull ring, coated by ice after being locked in a meat freezer — all of which she escaped with clownish glee. In one famous scene, Lucy’s oversized bread loaf swells from the oven and backs her across her kitchen. In another, she guzzles a 46-proof health tonic, Vitameatavegamin, in a commercial, and is soon mumbling and stumbling.

Libyan rebels take control of border crossing ––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– WORLD/NATION–––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––
CAIRO (NY Times) — Rebels fighting to oust the Libyan leader, Col. Muammar elQaddafi, took control of a border crossing into Tunisia on Thursday in the first significant crack in his control of the country’s western region since his security forces tamped down riots across the country two months ago. The rebels took control of the border town of Dhiba after an early morning battle that sent 13 Qaddafi soldiers, including a colonel and two other officers, fleeing into Tunisian custody, the
official Tunisian news agency reported. Nine Libyans wounded “following the sustained shelling on Libyan western areas” had also crossed the border, the agency reported, and four were taken to a regional hospital. The report suggests a possible break in the stalemate that has settled over the Libyan civil war. It is also the first hint of a return to a national uprising since the beginning of NATO airstrikes against the Qaddafi military. While it is far from clear that the rebels can maintain
control of the town, its taking offers at least the prospect of a border crossing that Western opponents of Colonel Qaddafi could use to send in supplies — perhaps even weapons. In the rebels’ eastern stronghold of Benghazi, Col. Ahmed Bani, a rebel military spokesman, said that anti-Qaddafi forces had attacked the crossing frequently in the past, but that this time Libyan soldiers had deserted their posts and fled to Tunisia, seeking asylum.
Poll finds lack of passion Wildlife at risk face long line for Republican candidates at Fish and Wildlife Service (NY Times) — With less than a year to go before the Iowa caucuses, Republican voters have yet to form strong opinions about most of their potential candidates for president in 2012, according to the latest New York Times/CBS News poll. Only those possible contenders who regularly appear on television — or have made bids before — are well known enough to elicit significant views from their fellow Republicans. And of that group, only one, former Gov. Mike Huckabee of Arkansas, is viewed favorably by more than half of the
Republican electorate. The poll seems to reflect the late start to the Republican primary season, with many of the likely candidates seeking to hoard their money and avoid any missteps that they might have to live with later, when voters go to polls or caucus rooms. The survey at the very least provides a reality check for a race that has received frenetic coverage at times on cable news and the Internet even though nearly 60 percent of Republicans cannot point to a single candidate about whom they are enthusiastic, according to the poll.
(NY Times) — In February, the Obama administration declared the Pacific walrus to be at risk of extinction because its Arctic habitat was melting. But it declined to list the marine mammal as an endangered species, saying a backlog of other animals faced greater peril. The federal Fish and Wildlife Service is in emergency triage mode as it struggles with an avalanche of petitions and lawsuits over the endangered species list, the chief tool for protecting plants and animals facing extinction in the United States. Over the last four years, a few environmental groups have requested that more than 1,230 species be listed, compared with the previous 12 years in which annual requests averaged only 20 species. Some environmental groups argue that vastly expanded listings are needed as evidence mounts that the world is entering an era of mass extinctions related to destruction of habitat, climate and other changes. Such threats require a focus on entire ecosystems, they say, rather than individual species.

House proposes temporary gas tax cut BY TOM FAHEY
He said average citizens say their prime concern right now isn’t the state budget or education funding. “What people are concerned about on a daily basis is the cost of living, and particularly the cost of gasoline,” O’Brien said. There is no guarantee oil companies will lower their prices to reflect the tax cut. But O’Brien said market pressure will force gas dealers to lower their prices by 5 cents a gallon, and use the cut as an opportunity to boost profits. “They know their customers will be expected the price of gasoline to decline in those weeks,” he said. By using surcharge fees to pay for the plan, O’Brien is taking money out of the state highway fund, a move Lynch and the Senate may not want to make. Rep. Candace Bouchard, D-Concord, said oil companies will simply take the extra 5 cents in profit on every gallon of gasoline, while road projects the $6 million should pay for will go unfunded and construction jobs will suffer. This is the worse kind of political grandstanding, to put people’s jobs in jeopardy,” said Bouchard, a member of the House Public Works and Highways Committee. “It means less aid to cities and towns and we’re just increasing the profit margin for oil companies.”
THE UNION LEADER
CONCORD — House Republicans want to save drivers 5 cents on each gallon of gas by cutting the state tax on gasoline for the next two months. Speaker of the House William O’Brien unveiled a plan that he said would provide about $6.6 million in relief for workers and businesses. He plans to introduce the measure on a bill that the House will consider next week. After that, he is counting the quick Senate action and approval by Gov. John Lynch. Lynch had no immediate comment on the proposal, which he had not seen in advance. The state imposes an 18-cent a gallon tax on gasoline, a tax that has not changed since 1991. Senate President Peter Bragdon, R-Milford, said he is surprised the House is moving so fast, and would reserve comment until he knows more about the plan. O’Brien said the temporary tax cut will be paid for with the money from state surcharge on motor vehicle registrations. The surcharge, which Republicans in the House and Senate want to end on June 30, pulls in just over $3 million a month.

I, for one, welcome the police presence To the editor: Since 1948 our family has vacationed, taken several trips to the White Mountain area, and eventually moved to this area. I remember traveling through Manchester and Concord before Route 93 was built just to enjoy the scenery and visit the historical places, restaurants, and stores that New Hampshire and Vermont had to offer. During my travels, I did not feel uneasy when I saw a police cruiser whether it was a local or state police. Although I have owned a home in Gilead, Maine, for the past 20 years, I retired seven years ago and have been teaching Microsoft Excel and Microsoft Access to the senior citizens in Berlin at the old Guardian School since retirement. Berlin police are okay, no problem with them either. Every Monday morning while on my way to Berlin, I usually stop in Gorham
to shop, have a coffee and donut, then on to teach from 1 to 3 p.m. I try to obey the posted speed limit. I have counted between five to eight cars that pass me; so the statement “The police tag everyone who comes to town” is exaggerated. The Gorham Police are correct in patrolling the town because it is a thickly settled district with many stores/restaurants, a post office, a day care, an elementary school, and a high school all near each other. The safety of the children, shoppers, visitors, and other drivers, (day or night) should be and is a priority with the Gorham police and the state police also. It is unfortunate that a Pub exists in the same area, however if you do not drink and drive, then there is no problem. Let’s thank all the police departments for keeping us safe. I welcome their presence. Joseph A. Boudreau West Bethel, Maine

‘Creation’s Dawn’
John Muir, the man often called the Father of Environmentalism, wrote: “I used to envy the father of our race, dwelling as he did in contact with the new-made fields and plants of Eden; but I do so no more, because I have discovered that I also live in ‘creation’s dawn.’”I am indebted for that quotation to Gordon and Cathy Illg, the two photographers who led the photo workshop in Utah on which I went this past December. With Earth Day being this Friday, their always interesting and informative monthly newsletter could not have arrived in my e-mail’s inbox at a more appropriate time. And their choice of quotation could not have been more wellchosen. I quickly sent a return e-mail thanking them for their timely and inspiring letter. Gordon and Cathy included another Muir quotation: “And yet when we look into any of her (Nature) operations that lie within reach of our minds, we learn that no particle of her material is wasted or worn out. It is eternally flowing from use to use, beauty to yet higher beauty.” What a beautiful thought, and how beautifully it is expressed. A song I once used in my classrooms, a song that was one of the most requested by my students, speaks its truth simply: “Every Day Is Earth Day.” Their letter reminded me also of the many “standing at the dawn of creation” experiences I have had in my own life. Perhaps the most vivid came at Canyonlands National Park, in Utah, this past December. Our photography workshop group had set out early from Moab so as to be in place at Mesa Arch, when the morning’s first beams began to spread their light. As the light touched the underside of the Arch, it began to glow a reddish-orange.
I cannot speak for others; but, for a moment, I stood awestruck, as though witnessing the birth of the earth. Then, I remembered why I had journeyed to Utah and its incredible array of national and state parks, and my camera began to record as best as any mere camera can the magnificence of the moment. As the light continued to spread, I went down to the ground, so as to catch the morning’s paint brush at work through the arch. No artist’s brush is Nature’s equal. The next morning found us at Utah’s Dead Horse Point State Park, waiting for the light to enhance the rich coloration of the mountains surrounding the Colorado River, two thousand feet below us, and the plateaus around which the river flows. Another moment of “standing at creation’s dawn.” Of course, living where my wife and I do in Milan, there have been countless mornings when we have had only to step out into our front yard to witness “creation’s dawn.” It is at such moments that the words of an old hymn never fail to come to mind: “For the beauty of the earth, for the glory of the skies . . . .” So many times this bountiful earth on which we are privileged to live has been maltreated by the very inhabitants that should respect and treasure it. Our record of stewardship too often has been far from commendable. Still, those moments of “standing at creation’s dawn” are there for those with eyes that truly see. Every day is still Earth Day.

The CAC-CC brings together all pieces of a multi-disciplinary team to one child friendly location so that one interview can be conducted and all relevant parties are represented and working together from day one of the investigation. April is National Child Abuse Awareness Month. It’s a great opportunity for us to look at what we are doing and acknowledge our challenges here in the North Country. In this stressful economy it is important to recognize that the national increase in child maltreatment paired with budget cuts across the board are a dangerous combination for our children. Because of this, our most vulnerable population stands at greater risk than ever. The good news is this; New Hampshire is one of the few states that have a Child Advocacy Center in every county. The CAC-CC is working tirelessly to ensure that child victims of crime in Coos County have access to the comprehensive and supportive services available. The CAC-CC has the ability to run on a lean budget and still make a significant impact on the lives of those innocent victims who are brought to the CAC-CC. However, our greatest challenge: the CAC-CC is not state funded and we rely on you, our community, to help support our work. Our mission relies on the continued

TBA Theatres needs community support by Sunday to reopen BY JODY HOULE THE BERLIN DAILY SUN
BERLIN/LANCASTER -- TBA Theatres in Berlin and Lancaster need support to reopen on May 6. The company needs a total of 400 supporters, 200 per location, by Sunday, April 24. The owners of the Princess Theatre in Berlin, and Rialto in Lancaster, wish to reopen on May 6, but due to the current economic crisis, attendance at the theatres has dwindled. The company has set up an advanced ticket incentive for people wishing to support them.
The advanced tickets can be purchased for $50 for ten tickets, plus two free passes, making it a total of 12 tickets. The tickets are valid until August 31, 2011, and can be used at either of the two theaters. To inquire about ordering tickets, email your name and phone number to customerservice@tbatheatres.com or visit their site at www.tbatheatres.com. If the company has enough supporters that are willing to purchase the advanced tickets, they will reopen on May 6, and plan on screening all the latest new blockbuster films.

months seven through year two; and $350 a month for year three and beyond. Collins said the county isn’t the only place that could benefit from the high-speed line. “Part of it also helps people in Stewartstown,” said Collins. She said Hampshire Vanguard Technology Associates asked to install an antenna on the county’s building that would help expand high-speed Internet service out into Stewartstown. There are a lot of people and some small business that could benefit from having high-speed Internet in the area, said Collins. The commissioners unanimously approved the change.
for his department, the switch to the T1 line would save $480 a month. Hamelin said the high-speed line would work better for video arraignments from the jail and also even open up doing more with video conferencing in the future. Currently, he said the jail relies on old I.S.DN. lines for its video arraignments, and often experiences problems. He added only four of the six lines work, not to mention many of the courts are upgrading to newer digital technology. Collins said the pricing structure for the high-speed line is very good. The cost of the line would be $540 during months one through six of the contract; $400 a month during

WIND FARM from page one
Isaacson Structural Steel of Berlin has been selected to supply all the steel for the substation and the electrical switchyard. A.J. Coleman Concrete of Gorham has been selected to provide the concrete for the turbine foundations. Decker said they will be taking down six old meteorological towers that are not needed anymore but will be installing a self-supporting 260foot high met tower. The new tower is required by the federal government for forecasting wind conditions. Decker said a place has been cleared for the tower on Owl’s Head Mountain. Decker stressed that safety is a major focus and said they have an overall safety plan and have met with local emergency responders. Recognizing that the Dummer Pond SWITCHES from page one
ance with a 12.5 percent change. Even though the county could see savings by switching carriers, Collins said the two plans are a little different, but not by much. “The products they offer are not exactly apples to apples,” said Collins. “They’re both apples just a different flavor.”
area is popular with outdoor enthusiasts, Decker said Granite Reliable Power will be setting up a toll-free phone number and a web page that people can check to see if the road is open. He said there will be occasions when the road will have to be closed during the construction season. After four years of planning and permitting, Decker said he is thrilled to see the wind farm being built. He thanked the planning board for its support. The 99-megawatt wind farm is under construction in Dummer and the unincorporated places of Dixville, Odell, Millsfield, and Erving’s Grant. Earlier this year, Noble Environmental sold a majority share in the project to Brookfield Renewable Power, which also owns most of the dams on the Androscoggin River in New Hampshire.

Brenda Stone Owner
Remodeling your home boosts the resale price Every property we buy, or everything we make, every product we purchase has to be maintained just like how we maintain our health to lead a long life. The life term of anything heavily depends upon how well it is maintained over the years. Poor maintenance will obviously lead to a shorter life time. We invest a lot on these items we purchase. So you need to answer yourself a question. Is it okay to lose something which we have valued and bought? Obviously we all have a purpose for the purchase we do in our lives. Obviously every penny we earn is a hard earned one and I am well aware of the fact that nobody is that irresponsible to purchase something without knowing the value of money spent on it. The above statements are pretty much true when it comes to homes. As properties houses are pretty expensive. Not everyone could afford to own a house in today’s world. And everybody buys house either for building assets which serves a useful purpose in future or to live in their dream home obviously when they purchase it keeping in mind their dreams, they do tend to care a lot for it. And it is very necessary for every owner to maintain is properly over the years so that house doesn’t undergo wear and tear. Thus remodeling your home every decade or something beautifies your home and gives it a newer look altogether. Remodeling home can be fun time irrespective of
whether you are doing to have a more comfortable and aesthetic pleasing place at the end of remodeling or you are hoping to sell your home for a good price and make profits. House as property does tend to bring in lots of rewards in terms of value. Such is the state of current real estate market value. However the remodeling process can be quite stressful and expensive if you are doing it by yourself. But it holds true even when you depend upon expert contractors as they also do tend to lag in their work and you might end up living in a house for months that is under construction which could quite hazardous for your health. Remodeling your home can turn out to be quite frustrating initially when the work is in progress. The smell of timber might not suit your tastes, the cement, dust and other allergies you might tend to carry, the painting and varnishing smell might not be the one you like invariably and in turn when you are living in a house under construction for a long time, it does tend to get on your nerves. However patience and perseverance is the key to fruitful results. F you are able to bare with it, remodeling home can be quite rewarding. Remodeling your home boosts the selling price of your house when you are planning to sell it. It need not even be the whole house but just a single room or a kitchen would suffice to raise the value of the house to unbelievable levels.
Raise the standard of kitchen floors with sturdy floor tiles Floors are essentially the most important part in any house from living room to bedroom and bathroom to corridors. But when it comes to kitchen floors then more attention regarding maintenance should be given. If you are deciding for renovation of floors in kitchen then do pay heed over the type of flooring material. Ample of kitchen floor tiles are present in the market that may appear attractive to you but, it might not be the case. There are numerous tiles that are appealing in looks but are insufficient in quality. Kitchen floor tiles are specially designed with various particular features that are necessary for floors in kitchen. Before going to purchase any material always take note of certain factors. For tiles to be laid in kitchen it is important that they should be
hard in quality and extremely durable in strength. This factor is very crucial for tiles as there are many situations in which floors have to undergo extremes of conditions. Lifestyle of the family plays a vital role in the selection of kitchen floor tiles as the floors are mostly used by them. This part of house is widely used by everyone as in some houses family members prefer to eat in this room. Durability is an important aspect if you have children and animals moving around in your house. Floor tiles should also be sturdy in nature in order to tolerate heavy objects, if placed on them. You must look for those tiles, which are stain resistant so that the entire look is not hampered by the mark. see FLOORS page 15

Another major factor that can contribute in making the entire look more interesting is choice of colors and designs. There is a multitude of colors, designs and patterns found in kitchen floor tiles. You can establish a look with the help of these tiles that is unique and distinct in appearance than any other. Varieties that are available in these tiles are endless and capable of modifying your kitchen superbly. You will be raising your standard by installing these high class tiles as a result your neighbors will envy you.
To flaunt your creativity you can mix and match different colors and designs together to come up with unique style. You can also go for a single color or can add contrasting borders to overall floor. Generally, in order to avoid stains and scratch, dark colors are preferred in kitchen floor tiles. On the other hand if you want to create spacious look then you can choose from light shades like white, cream or light brown etc. All these steps will fetch you the best tile among many kitchen floor tiles that will be profitable in the long run.

DAILY CROSSWORD TRIBUNE MEDIA SERVICES
by Lynn Johnston by Scott Adams
DILBERT
By Holiday Mathis SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You’ll work hard and accomplish what you set out to do. There will be a satisfying feeling at the end of the day. It will be as though the mountains and hills burst into song before you as you drive off into the sunset. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). For the sake of your own happiness, you’ll change how you think and react to certain situations. You’ll give up being right in favor of creating harmony in your environment. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). It will benefit you to be around children and those whose sensibility is creative and childlike. These types will spout just the kind of nonsense that wakes up your brain cells. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You communicate well and with restraint. Keeping it short actually requires more time. It means you’re thoughtful. You decide what is the most important part of your message and edit yourself accordingly. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You’ll lighten up by incorporating some silliness into your day. If you don’t do this on purpose, the silliness will still happen. It’s like the universe is conspiring to make you laugh. Your levity is infectious. TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (April 22). In the next six weeks, a burden will be lifted. The air around you changes this year as your aura brightens. You’ll get the chance to model good character for loved ones in May. June brings fun and a roller coaster of emotional excitement. Business takes center stage in September, and there’s serious money to be made. Scorpio and Libra people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 18, 30, 1, 11 and 39.
Get Fuzzy
ARIES (March 21-April 19). When you know a relationship is strong, you feel safe enough to voice your agreements and disagreements alike. Keep this in mind when a loved one opposes you. It’s a sign that your relationship is healthy. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Though you can appreciate a good romantic comedy, you realize that life rarely happens with the sweet humor represented in this entertainment. Today is a delightful exception. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). The smoke and mirrors will be effective in diverting your attention, and you’ll enjoy the day’s illusions. Then something happens that is truly unexplainable. It’s the real magic, and you will be properly enchanted. CANCER (June 22-July 22). You don’t have time for speculative ventures now. You’ll do business with the one who has proved himself time and again. You know the specific result you want to achieve and will settle for no less. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). A kindness will be extended to you by a stranger. This event will inspire you to pay it forward. It could be that you are an unknowing participant in someone’s master plan for global peace. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Everything requires maintenance. Your relationships, your body and your material possessions all benefit from the extra care and repair you give them now. It’s a day of restoration. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). The why isn’t as important as the who, what and when. Show up and do what you said you would do, even if your reasons for doing it have changed. The change will be ongoing, but it’s important that you keep your word.

ADULTEROUS DAD’S TV BRIBE DOESN’T OFFER PRETTY PICTURE
DEAR ABBY: My father is a state worker who has “furlough Fridays.” My sister, “Dee,” went home early from school last Friday because she wasn’t feeling well and found him in bed with one of his co-workers. Mom was at work, so apparently Dad thought he was safe. If Mom ever found out, their marriage would be over. Dad is begging Dee not to tell. Dee and I have been saving for a large HDTV for our bedroom. Dad is now offering to pay for it. He says he’ll tell Mom he’s helping us because we have been working so hard to save the money. Actually, he’d pay for the whole thing and let us keep our money. Dee is all for it. She says we can use Dad’s affair to get more from him in the future. I’m shocked and disappointed in my father, and while I don’t want to see my parents’ marriage destroyed, I don’t feel right about letting him bribe us. What should I do? -- CALIFORNIA GIRL DEAR CALIFORNIA GIRL: Your father is a piece of work. That he would attempt to rope his daughters in as co-conspirators shows the extent of his lack of character. And if you didn’t realize it, you wouldn’t have written to me. Please do not go along with your sister’s plan to accept the payoff. It’s extortion. If you keep the secret, there is nothing to prevent your father from continuing his adulterous affairs. As difficult as hearing about this from you may be to your mother, if she should find out what’s been going on - - and it ALWAYS comes out - - and realize her daughters were aware of it, her pain will be magnified. DEAR ABBY: My fiance has a daughter in college. “Kimberly” emails her essays to her father, always saying, “I need
you to spell-check, check grammar and fix everything. Then send it back to me.” As a teacher, I have told him this is unethical. His daughter is working for a grade and there are resources available at the university. She has no disability and time is not an issue. When this happens my blood boils. Am I wrong? Or is it wrong of her to expect Daddy to fix her papers so she can get a good grade? He thinks I’m overreacting. -- NOT FOOLED IN MICHIGAN DEAR NOT FOOLED: Of course you’re not wrong. As well-intended as your fiance may be, by correcting his daughter’s assignments he’s preventing her from learning skills she will need once she graduates. Warning: If you plan to marry this man, be prepared for a future filled with him solving one problem after another for her, because he’s not going to change and neither will she. A college girl being this dependent on Daddy isn’t healthy. DEAR ABBY: How long after you are married can you take a honeymoon? My husband and I dream of going to Venice so we can kiss on the Bridge of Sighs. We’ve heard if you do that, you’ll be in love forever. We’re saving our money, but won’t be able to afford to go until after our first anniversary. Is there a rule that a honeymoon must be taken within the first year of marriage? -- LIZA IN ALASKA DEAR LIZA: There’s no such rule that I know of. Because it’s your first big trip together as man and wife, call it a “deferred honeymoon” (after all, that’s what it is), and you need not apologize for doing so.

Households from member communities of Berlin, Dummer, Errol, Gorham, Jefferson, Milan, Northumberland, Randolph, Stark and the Unincorporated Towns in Coos County are eligible to participate. In addition, residents from Shelburne will again be authorized to participate this year. Proof of residency will be required such as a driver’s license or tax bill. Many of the common products we use daily in our kitchen, bath, yard, garage and basement can pose a hazard if handled and/or disposed of improperly. Examples of items you can bring to the AVRRDD Household Hazardous Waste Collection are: latex paint (not classified as hazardous – being collected as a convenience to residents), oil based paints and strippers, paint thinners; solvents; stains and varnishes; solvent adhesives; lighter fluids; waste fuels such as kerosene and gasoline; antifreeze, engine degreasers; carburetor cleaners; brake fluid; car wax; poisons; insecticides; weed killers; chemical fertilizers; mothballs; wood preservatives; pest strips and flea powder; hobby supplies; artist supplies; rubber cement; airplane glue; driveway sealer; roofing tar; fiberglass resins; photo chemicals; chemistry sets; cleaning supplies; furniture polish; floor polish and metal polishes; oven cleaners; toilet bowl cleaners and drain cleaners; rug and upholstery cleaners; spot removers; dry cleaning solvents; septic tank degreasers; swimming pool chemicals; aerosol cans; pesticides containing 2,4,5T, Silvex; and small quantities of asbestos (defined as 25 pounds or less). Asbestos must be completely wetted down with water and bagged in TWO heavy garbage bags. If
you have specific questions on asbestos, contact our District Office at 752-3342. Do not bring any fireworks, explosives, ammunition, radioactive wastes, infectious or biological wastes, prescription medicines, syringes, commercial or industrial waste or smoke detectors. Also, do not bring any motor oils, gear oils, transmission fluids or automobile batteries as these items are processed at the District Materials Recovery Facility Monday through Saturday 7:00 a.m. – 4:00 p.m.. Alkaline batteries (AA, AAA, C, D, etc.) made after 1996, no longer contain mercury. All alkaline batteries can be disposed of in the regular trash. Do not bring fluorescent bulbs or propane tanks since residents can bring these to the District Transfer Station Tuesday through Saturday 7: a.m. – 3:30 p.m. (Permit required) Call the District office for details at 752-3342. In order to be safe in transporting these hazardous materials to the collection site, always tighten caps and lids leaving materials in original labeled containers; sort and pack separately: oil paint, pesticides and household cleaners; pack containers in sturdy upright boxes and pad with newspaper; do not place container in a garbage bag; NEVER MIX CHEMICALS, pack your car and drive directly to the collection site and NEVER SMOKE while handling hazardous materials. Each household is limited to disposal of 10 gallons or 80 pounds of hazardous waste (with the exception of asbestos which is limited to 25 pounds or less). This collection is for the disposal of household hazardous waste only. Commercial or industrial waste will not be accepted. For further information, contact the District Office at 752-3342. The Transfer Station will be closed for regular business on Saturday, June 4, so that we may conduct the HHW collection.
BERLIN -- Latex paint will be accepted on Household Hazardous Waste Day, Saturday, June 4, at the Transfer Station as a convenience to residents. However, unlike oil based paints that contain solvents and must be cleaned up with mineral spirits or other sol-

North Country Broomball League holds its draft for 2011 –––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– SPORTS –––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––
BERLIN/GORHAM -- Another North Country Men’s Basketball Season is underway. The 2011 NCMBL Draft was held on April 8 . With the excitement among players growing by the day the moment came at 9:30 p.m. on Friday night. The team captains finally met for the much anticipated draft. The league has grown since starting in 2010 and now has 84 men playing from the North Country. The NCMBL has players flocking to Berlin from as far away as Littleton, Plymouth, Vermont, and Conway. Also there are players from Groveton, Strafford, White Mountains, Milan, Gorham, and Berlin. With this great interest in the league, the NCMBL added two expansion teams to the original six teams. This year’s sponsors and captains are: Dan Enman as captain for North Country Dental, Dan Rivard as captain for Isaacson, Jeremy Michalik as captain for Tough Guys, Luke Enman as captain for Mr. Pizza, Curtis Arsenault as captain for Town and Country, Tyler Baillargeon as captain for Cross Machine, Joseph Arsenault as captain of Morneau Travel, and Jamason Levesque as the captain of the last team in need of a sponsor. Before the draft began, every captain got to save a player off of his previous team. Dan Enman chose to save Jake Drouin while Dan Rivard saved Keith Griffin, Jeremy Michalik saved Steve Arsenault, Luke Enman saved Zack Bacon, Curtis Arsenault saved Evan Haskins, Tyler Baillargeon save Jason Mercier, Joseph Arsenault saved Damon Ness, and Jamason Levesque saved Dimitri Giannos. Once all the captains had their one save the draft was set to get underway. With live updates getting posted on the new North Country Men’s Basketball League’s page on Facebook the draft was able to be followed from around the North Country. With the much anticipated first pick of the draft Jeremy Michalik and the Tough Guys picked Sam Aldrich. Sam brings a unique set of skills to the team with his ball handling and shooting ability. At 6’1” Aldrich is a mismatch for most point guards and his stellar defense and shot blocking ability makes him an all around dominant point guard. With the second pick of
the draft Tyler Baillargeon picked Dan Johnson. As a 190 pound 6’3” forward for the White Mountain Spartans he gives Cross Machine an inside presence to match up with the best forwards in the league. He brings a unique set of skills to the team as one of the best offensive rebounders to play for the Spartans. With the third pick of the draft Dimitri Giannos, picking for Jamason Levesque, picked Ian Boyco. At 6’9” and a college ball player at NHTI Ian towers above most of the NCMBL. With soft hands he has the ability to shoot uncontested jump shots from 15 feet with high accuracy and is a dangerous shot blocker and rebounder. With the fourth pick of the draft Dan Rivard picked Anthony Bathalon. Bathalon stands 6’2” tall and can drive at will and easily dunk whenever the defense loses track of the quick guard. He has had a few pro basketball tryouts and is trying out for the Arkansas Lightning in the fall. Dan Rivard and Isaacson was excited to have the opportunity to pick Bathalon with the fourth pick of the draft, considering he has a shot at being this years NCMBL MVP. With the fifth pick of the draft Luke Enman and Mr. Pizza picked Michael Kenison. At 6’1” 250 pounds Kenison is quick and hard to stop from getting to the rim. He has the job of shutting down Steve Arsenault, who was second in MVP votes last year. Kenison may be the only person in the league who has the defensive skill to stop Arsenault and can add scoring power to Mr. Pizza with his extraordinary moves. With the sixth pick of the draft Curtis Arsenault picked Bandon Frost. Frost is a 6’3” guard and adds scoring power to T+C’s already solid duo of Arsenault and Evan Haskins. He is deadly from three and has a pure jump shot. Dan Enman and North Country Dental used the seventh pick of the draft to pick Ethan Enman. A pure shooter from deep with a dangerously soft touch to finish in traffic, Ethan may be the most deadly three point shooter in the league and will complement the Dan Enman and Jake Drouin duo that led North Country Dental to the NCMBL Finals. With the last pick of the first round Joseph Arsenault picked Don Picard. Picard is a fierce competitor and brings a high
basketball IQ to the team. As coach of the Berlin Varsity Basketball team he has led them deep in the tournament in recent years and knows how to win games. His deadly shooting will be sure to compliment the inside game of Damon Ness, and give Morneau Travel the chance to win back to back titles. After the draft, Curtis Arsenault and Jeremy Michalik made a big trade, Jeremy traded Steve Arsenault and Jon Frisk for Roland Arsenault and Jon Mullins. After the draft the teams looked like this: North Country Dental: Dan Enman, Ethan Enman, Jake Drouin, Bobby Simpson, Howard Cismowski, Zach Stephenson, Tyler Palmer, Scott Valliere, Quinn Morrissette, Jeff Gaudette Isaacson: Dan Rivard, Keith Griffin, Anthony Bathalon, Nick Fournier, Gary Ferron, Nathan Croteau, Yair Balderrama, Nick Roy, Kevin Labbe, Charlie Carpenter, Todd Bouchard Tough Guys: Jeremy Michalik ,Jon Mullins, Sam Aldrich ,Matt Record ,Richard Aldrich, Sean Irving, Joel Wyatt, Anthony Mullins, Tony Valliere, Ron Hill, Roland Arsenault Mr. Pizza: Luke Enman, Zack Bacon, Mike Kennison, Sean Patry, Sean Haskins, Zack Donaldson, Brad Frenette, Pete Peare, Nick Erickson, Tyler Reed Town & Country: Curtis Arsenault, Steve Arsenault, Evan Haskins, Brandon Frost, Jeff Atkinson, Jon Frisk, Terrence Bedell, Dustin Heath, Reggie Coulombe, Justin Stroup Cross Machine: Tyler Baillargeon, Jason Mercier, CamDan Johnson, Tyler Burt, Joel Howry, eron Patry, Steven Flynn, Coree Kinerson, Craig Melanson, Jeremiah Pinette, Danny Ward Morneau Travel: Joseph Arsenault, Damon Ness, Don Picard, Jordan Wheelock, Griffin Roy, Rod Swift, Dylan Palmer, Spencer Hill, Nate Lax, Andrew Patton Sponsor needed: Jamason Levesque, Dimitri Giannos, Ian Boyco,Yiram Villanueva,Tyler Ramsdell, Sam Jenson,Bryar King, Ryan Stoddard, Jeremy Dupont, Josh Fortier,Daniel Brofman The season schedule will be printed in the newspaper before the season starts in mid-June and all fans are welcome to come to the games which have no admissions costs.
