Union files for arbitration: Charges some city hall workers paid below federal poverty level BY BARBARA TETREAULT THE BERLIN DAILY SUN

BERLIN – Charging the city hall staff and city’s professional workers are the lowest paid in the state; Local 6 of OPEIU informed the city council Monday night it is in the process of filing for arbitration. Local 6 Chief Steward Ted Miller said the local is fi ling for arbitration over the issue of salary levels for the Public Works Department foreman position. But he chided the council over wage levels for members of the union, noting some full-time workers make below the federal poverty level and qualify for food stamps. Miller said the local in February became aware

of hiring agreements between the city and the last three hires for the position of Public Works foreman in which the city negotiated terms of employment with the three. The local argues that is in violation of the collective bargaining agreement. Miller said the local made the issue part of a grievance it was filing and when the city did not respond, fi led a separate grievance, which the city hearing officer denied. Currently, Miller said Public Works foremen are paid less than the mechanic, welder, and carpenter positions they supervise. He said the local thought it had negotiated a compromise with the city that would give the foremen a $1.50 an hour increase as

of June 1, or 56 cents an hour more than the employees they supervise. But last week, Miller said the city presented the local with language that would spread the increase over 50 months. “It is not acceptable for the city to consider foremen who’ve worked several years as entry level employees and to pay them less than the men they supervise,” Miller argued. He warned arbitration is binding and the cost of both the arbitration and decision are the responsible of the losing party. Miller took the opportunity to complain about the low wages paid to union members especially city see ARBITRATION page 8

Ironworkers union complains locals not hired for wind farm BY BARBARA TETREAULT THE BERLIN DAILY SUN

PHILLIPS BROOK – A New Hampshire-based union is complaining that despite promises to use local people in the construction of the 33-turbine wind farm in Phillips Brook, Utah workers have been brought in to do the ironwork on the project. Shawn Cleary, business agent for Ironworkers

Local 7, said he repeatedly contacted RMT, the Wisconsin-based general contractor for the project, about hiring ironworkers from his union. He said last week he was told the company was hiring workers from Utah for the project. Cleary estimated about 20 ironworkers will be employed on the project and said his union could have met that demand with all New Hampshire workers. He said there are about 10 ironworkers in

Coos County alone. “It was a great opportunity to put local people to work,” he said. Cleary said the region supported the project on the basis it was going to create jobs for local people. Coos County Commissioner Paul Grenier said he was “extremely disappointed and disgusted” to learn that Ironworkers Local 7 has been bypassed see IRONWORKERS page 7

BERLIN— The Coos County Commissioners continued making arrangements Thursday to shutter the county farm. The commissioners agreed to auction of much of the farm equipment and remaining hay and corn during their meeting Wednesday. The county has already sold off its dairy herd and approved a lease with Santa’s Tree Farm for the land. The auction is set for June 13 at the county farm, in West Stewartstown. Aside from the equipment going to auction, the commissioners received a request from Lyon’s Dairy, of Derby, Vt., to purchase the bulk tanks and its accessory equipment. The company offered $12,000 for the tank and the milking equipment. The county plans to keep a few pieces of equipment, like the generator and a tractor, said County Administrator Collins. Another issue is how to handle the stored see FARM page 8

Hairstyle draws thieves’ notice (NY Times) — The thieves pulled the iron bars out of the windows, outsmarted the motion detector that would have triggered a burglar alarm and did not give the safe or cash register a second look. Instead they went straight for what was most valuable: human hair. By the time the bandits at the My Trendy Place salon in Houston were ﬁ nished, they had stolen $150,000 worth of the shop’s most prized type, used for silky extensions. The break-in was part of a recent trend of thefts, some involving violence, of a seemingly plentiful material. During the past two months alone, robbers in quest of human hair have killed a beauty shop supplier in Michigan and carried out heists nationwide in which they have made off with tens of thousands of dollars of hair at a time. “I heard about it from a couple of different supply companies and customers who said: ‘Guard your inventory. There’s a rash of this going on,’ ” said Lisa Amosu, the owner of My Trendy Place. “Whoever did it knew exactly what they wanted. They didn’t even bother with the synthetic hair.” Once stolen, the hair is typically sold on the street or on the Internet, including eBay, shop owners and the police say.

U.S. military deaths in Afghanistan.

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

Mine owner’s negligence led to blast, study finds WASHINGTON (NY Times) — In the fi rst comprehensive state report on the 2010 coal mine disaster in West Virginia, an independent team of investigators put the blame squarely on the owner of the mine, Massey Energy, concluding that it had “made life diffi cult” for miners who tried to address safety and built “a culture in which wrongdoing became acceptable.” The report, released Thurs-

day by an independent team appointed by the former West Virginia governor, Joe Manchin III, and led by the former federal mine safety chief Davitt McAteer, echoed preliminary ﬁ ndings by federal ofﬁ cials that the blast could have been prevented if Massey had observed minimal safety standards. But it was more pointed in naming Massey as the culprit, using blunt language to describe what it said was a pat-

tern of negligence that ultimately led to the deaths of 29 miners on April 5, 2010, in the worst American mining disaster in 40 years. “The story of Upper Big Branch is a cautionary tale of hubris,” the report concluded. “A company that was a towering presence in the Appalachian coalﬁ elds operated its mines in a profoundly reckless manner, and 29 coal miners paid with their lives for the corporate risk-taking.”

Syria condemns U.S. sanctions on Assad BEIRUT, Lebanon (NY Times) — The Syrian government condemned on Wednesday American sanctions against President Bashar al-Assad and six of his top ofﬁ cials over the ferocious crackdown on antigovernment protesters that human rights activists say has killed at least 850 people. The Syrian state news agency said that the sanctions were “one in a series of sanctions imposed by the U.S. administration against the Syrian people as part of the U.S. regional policies serving Israel.” The report added that the move “would not affect Syria’s independent choices and steadfastness.”

The American imposition of sanctions on Tuesday represented an escalation of pressure on Mr. Assad’s government, which has detained thousands and deployed the army in at least four towns and cities across the country to crush dissent. Syria’s response came hours before President Obama delivered a much-anticipated speech on the Middle East during which he warned Mr. Assad that Syria would face increasing isolation if he did not address his people’s calls for a transition to democracy. Mr. Obama, however, did not explicitly call for Mr. Assad’s removal.

Obama backs deal based on 1967 lines WASHINGTON (NY Times) — Seeking to harness the seismic political change still unfolding in the Arab world, President Obama on Thursday publicly called for the borders prevailing before the 1967 Israeli-Arab war to be the starting point for talks to settle the confl ict there, the first time an American president has explicitly taken that position. He also said that a new Palestinian state should be demilitarized. “At a time when the people of the Middle East and North Africa are casting off the burdens of the past, the drive for a lasting peace that ends the confl ict and resolves all claims is more urgent that ever,” he said. Although Mr. Obama said that “the core issues” dividing Israelis and Palestinians remained to be negotiated, including the searing questions of Jerusalem and the fate of Palestinian refugees, he spoke with striking frustration that efforts to support an agreement in his fi rst two years in office had so far failed. “The international community is tired of an endless process that never produces an outcome,” he said.

The city shouldn’t be wasting money To the editor: My husband and I took a nice smooth ride up the river this past weekend. I couldn’t believe the road didn’t have any frost heaves or bumps. All the roads in Berlin are full of potholes, ruts, cracks and raised manhole covers. I was on my way to work a few Sundays ago and the street sweeper was out at 10:30 p.m. The city shouldn’t be wasting our tax dollars paying overtime or time and a half for foolishness. The money should be used to fix the, terrible, not fun to drive on,

roads and streets of Berlin. I hate to leave my driveway because I know I’ll have to go bumpity bump and play dodge the pothole. It’s refreshing going to Lancaster, Groveton or anywhere because there are no potholes etc., just smooth roads. The minute one arrives by the Bud plant on Jericho Road or past the tracks on the Berlin/ Gorham Road you know you’re in Berlin because the bumps and potholes are prevalent. Anna-Marie Lutz Berlin

Thanks for all that you do for our students To the editor: It’s not very often as parents we hear the good things our children do. From the way they may act when out of our site, words spoken or not, or just the kind gestures of helping to clean the bus after a road trip. This city has great, intelligent kids, many of whom go unnoticed. I have two sons and a nephew that are on the track team and travelled the bus on Saturday. I am extremely proud of each of them. Not only have they had a great track season, but the team as a whole has strived and excelled. They worked and worked hard to break records from school and state, but most being on

a personal level. Each one of them are proud. Proud of their accomplishments, who they are and who they represent. They, as a team, have represented their school and this city with pride. Thank you Mr. Letarte, Mr. Lord and Mr. Finnigan-Allen for taking the time to teach and guide these great kids. Your patience and dedication to them has helped them to be who they are today. None of which has gone unnoticed. Mr. Cusson, thank you. Thank you for getting our kids safety back and forth to each event and a big thank you for noticing how great each of them really is.

The Time Of My Life We are driving back from North Conway. At Glen, we make the right turn that will take us past Storyland, the historic covered bridge in Jackson, and on through to Pinkham Notch, the Mount Washington Auto Road, and to Gorham, where we make the left turn that starts the final twenty-five minutes of our journey home. There are numerous vehicles in the parking lot of Storyland on this day. The Storyland season will soon begin now, and undoubtedly there is still much to do before the Memorial Day weekend comes around. But it is not Storyland that draws my attention as we drive by. It is the now five-year vacant building next to it that once again wakes the memories of what, next only to the professional theatre work that I did, were the happiest working days of my life. For someone like me, someone interested in the history of his state and his country, someone who enjoys researching and writing, someone who enjoys portraying different characters in different times and places, Heritage-New Hampshire was the perfect place to be. In fact, my days there were never “working days” to me. How could they be? There was such pleasure just in the meeting of people of all ages and all walks of life, from all across this nation and the world. There was such pleasure in the sharing of what my research into the history of how and why my state and nation had come to be what they are today. There was such pleasure in watching the faces of my listeners and observing their reactions as some hitherto unknown information was revealed in my monologues. And there was always such great satisfaction when thoughtful questions were asked at monologue’s end, or when someone would say, “I didn’t know that. It was always interesting – and rather discouraging, too – when so often visitors from foreign lands revealed a greater knowledge of our history than our own citizens did. So often, their curiosity would prompt the most interesting questions, or their relating of what was happening in their land during the same time period provided an insight that

would be stored in the memory for future use. Reciprocal learning is one of the great satisfactions of working in a place like HeritageNew Hampshire. When it opened in time for the 200th Anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, in July of 1976, it was perhaps the most unique presentation of history in all of the United States. The visitor took an actual journey through motion-picturelike sets representing different time periods in New Hampshire’s history. Along the way, the traveler through time would meet different, period-costumed characters who would discuss what was happening during the time period they represented. One would begin with a simulated voyage across an always dangerous Atlantic Ocean to what was at first called Mason’s Grant. And the 300-year journey through history would end with a simulated train-ride from Crawford Notch to North Conway. Visitors were always astounded by how much the Heritage building actually contained, and how life-like it seemed. For a time, the innovative vision of Bob Morrell and Peter Stone thrived. But by the time I became associated with the remarkable historical attraction, it was barely making ends meet. Public interest in history had fallen off, its attention now diverted by other, more dazzling media. Despite annual efforts by those of us who cared about Heritage-New Hampshire to make it more attractive to visitors, there simply weren’t enough of them coming through the door to justify the cost of keeping it open. I’m told that the inside of the building is pretty well gutted now, the carefully collected reference materials and artifacts dispersed here and there. But the friendships I made there, the opportunities afforded me to research and write and publish, and the opportunities to meet and inform others, as well as to be informed by them will always be a cherished time in my life. If, by some miracle, its like were ever to open again, I would be first in line to sign up.

The Privileged Should Be Tightening Their Own Belts The Rt. Rev. V. Gene Robinson, Episcopal Bishop of New Hampshire Testimony before the House Finance Committee Hearing on the Budget March 10, 2011 By The Rt. Rev. V. Gene Robinson, Episcopal Bishop of New Hampshire My name is Gene Robinson, and I am a citizen of Weare. I am also the Episcopal Bishop of New Hampshire. I fear that what I will have to say here today will be a bit like whistling in the wind, but as the leader of some 15,000 Episcopalians all over this state, and as one person of faith, I must say it anyway, or else will find it

hard to say my prayers tonight. If I sound angry to you, you’re right. But I’m not angry for myself, but on behalf of the poor and vulnerable on whose backs this proposed budget is being balanced. The Jewish scriptures of the Old Testament, and the Christian scriptures of the New Testament, have one overriding theme: it is that the God of All Creation will judge humankind, not by our accomplishments, nor by our GDP, see TIGHTENING page 5

nor by the average test scores of our school children, but by how well we care for the poor and vulnerable in our midst. No other theme is so thoroughly driven home in Holy Scripture. As a moral and spiritual leader of the Episcopal Church in New Hampshire, I have to say that the proposed cuts to the services and social safety net of our New Hampshire community fl y in the face of every moral value I hold dear. Let’s be clear: belt- tightening in challenging times is a good thing, but it is not moral to unilaterally tighten the belts of other people, against their will and to their detriment, while allowing ourselves to go scot-free. We are not asking the most vulnerable to make a sacrifice – because sacrifice comes as a free offering from those willing to bear the burden themselves. When sacrifice is perpetrated on the vulnerable and weak by the strong and prosperous, it is social abuse.

We are located at 2 High Street (across from the bowling alley). Our Sunday worship begins at 10:15 a.m. If you have questions, please call our office at 752-3504. We look forward to welcoming you on May 22, and June 5. The Rev. Fran Gardner-Smith Rector, St. Barnabas Episcopal Church If there is belt-tightening to be done, we should be tightening our own belts and coming up with the resources to do what a civilized society does: to care for, and not cut services for the poor, the disabled, the blind, the unemployed, the impoverished elderly, the uninsured, and children living in poverty. Those who would lay quick claim to the moral ground of “family values” are proposing a budget that undermines vulnerable families all across this great state. So, do what you are going to do. But make no mistake – this budget is simply irresponsible and immoral. Pass this budget if you think you must, but don’t do it in the name of Yankee frugality and fi scal responsibility. Sitting here in one of the most prosperous states in the Union, let’s just call it what it is: a stubborn and selfish unwillingness by us, the privileged, to tighten our own belts for the good of our fellow citizens who are truly in need.

Early Child Care substitute providers being sought BERLIN -- During the months of May and June, the Coos County Director Network will be recruiting interested candidates and providing associated trainings to fi ll the need for substitute child care providers in local preschools and daycare centers. Under the direction of Melanie Mallett, local child care educator, the Director Network is seeking highly qualified individuals who enjoy working with young children in a variety of child care settings. Training will begin in early June. A critical element of any learning environment is consistent quality care. Substitutes are an essential part of a public school system, and it is clear that a similar need has been defined in the early child care fi eld. The challenge is fi nding substitutes who are highly skilled and can commit to traversing our rural community to work in a variety of child care centers on an irregular basis. The Director Network is a group of ten directors of child care centers throughout Coos County who meet monthly to collaborate and share their

experiences with the intention of increasing their individual capacities to provide quality child care. The group meets at a variety of locations throughout the county, thanks to the generosity of sites such as the Lancaster Public Library, Colebrook’s Indian Stream Health Center, and White Mountains Community College. The Network is currently organized by WMCC’s project coordinator, Kathryn Keene. “One of the goals of the Early Childhood Initiative is to decrease the isolation that plagues many child care providers,” states Keene, “and to ensure sustainability. They do some of the most important work in society, yet are limited in their ability to collaborate with other professionals. Monthly meetings set the pace for the future in which we hope it will become commonplace for child care professionals to share regularly what they do well and to open doors for improvement.” White Mountains Community College houses the Early Childhood Initiative and will host the fi rst training session at their Berlin site in June. WMCC is a partner in the Early Childhood

Since Electricity De-Regulation in 1999 Residential & Small Business customers have been able to choose their electricity supplier but none were available. Until Now!!

The New Hampshire electricity market was deregulated in 1999 and it’s time all homeowners and small businesses enjoy the same savings large commercial users have enjoyed for over a decade.

Development North Country Strategy funded by the Neil and Louise Tillotson Fund of the New Hampshire Charitable Foundation.

IRONWORKERS from page one

“It’s a highly specialized skill,” she said. Robins said the training requirements are lengthy which makes it hard to bring in new workers given the time constraints to get the project done to meet certain deadlines. She said RMT has hired local companies and union members to work on the 99-megawatt wind farm. AB Logging of Lancaster and Hick Logging of Jefferson did the site clearing. Isaacson Structural Steel of Berlin is supplying all the steel for the substation and the electrical switchyard. A.J. Coleman Concrete of Gorham was hired to provide the concrete for the turbine foundations. IBEW union members have also been selected to do electrical work on the project. The first turbines are scheduled to be delivered in August.

in hiring for the project. He said the commission was promised as many local people as possible would be used in the construction. “We basically have been lied to,” he said. RMT spokeswoman Barbara Robins said her company is committed to using local people and services on the project. But she said putting up the towers and attaching the turbines to them is very specialized and technical work that requires people with extra training. She said her company has put together a highly trained team to do such projects. She said the team is not based in Utah but some came to northern New Hampshire from a job site in Utah. She said members of the team come from all over the country and some are permanent employees of RMT.

During the delegation meeting, Santamaria described his plans for the land. Santamaria said he plans to use the land for a corn maze that would serve as a tourist attraction and provide an agriculture-based education programs. He added he feels it’s going to be a huge draw to the area. Santamaria said the corn maze would be open on the weekends and be open for educational programs during the rest of the week. Currently, the lease with Santa’s Tree Farm doesn’t include any of the buildings on the property. Until the commissioners decide what to do with the buildings, the county will use money from its investment in Agri-Mark to maintain the property and pay the taxes on the land. Collins told the delegation Monday that the investment is worth $70,000 and would be paid off during a five-year period.

manure at the farm, said Collins. There are two possibilities to deal with the manure, she said. The fi rst would be converting it into compost, though Steve Turaj, of the U.N.H. Cooperative Extension, advised her this would be a lengthy and difficult process. The second is an offer from David Santamaria, of Santa’s Tree Farm, to spread the manure on the fields using his own equipment, said Collins. She added this wouldn’t cost the county anything. The commissioners voted to allow Santamaria to spread the stored manure on the fi elds using his own equipment. Santamaria is going to lease the land at the farm for $2,500 a month and plans to use it for a corn maze and agri-education facility. The County Delegation voted Monday to approve the lease agreement, and the commissioners signed the lease on Wednesday.

hall and library employees. Of the 29 union members, he noted 75 percent are women. Miller said most of the highly skilled workers in city hall and the library are paid $10 to $12 per hour. “We have people in those positions who receive food stamps, WIC, and other assistance because they are working full-time for wages that are below the federal poverty level. These are not only the lowest paid positions in the city of Berlin. According to the NHLGC (N.H. Local Government Center), they are also the lowest paid municipal workers in the state,” Miller said. Mayor Paul Grenier interrupted Miller to charge the union bears some of the responsibility for the wage levels. He said in the past the local refused to accept wage increases in exchange for health insurance concessions. “Don’t blame just the city,” Grenier said. Miller agreed the local did not initially accept the concessions, although it eventually did, because he argued they were not fair due to the wide gap in wages between office workers and other locals. He said the percentage based concessions “hit hardest on the lowest paid workers resulting in smaller paychecks for them while even with those same percentages other city workers saw their pay increased”. Miller charged the city is seeking additional concessions from the local

The SAU #20 will receive sealed Bids for the Milan Elementary School Parking Lot Improvements project, located on Bridge Street, in Milan, NH until 2 p.m., June 3, 2011 at the SAU #20 office. Sealed bids should be sent to SAU #20, 123 Main Street, Gorham, NH 03851, Attn: Paul Bousquet. The project generally includes reconstruction of the front portion of the Milan Elementary School parking lot and associated improvements. Contractor will need to coordinate the parking lot improvement work with a separate contract involving upgrades to the existing underground fuel storage tank located in the front parking area. A copy of the Bidding documents may be examined and obtained from the Engineer’s office (H.E. Bergeron Engineers, Inc. PO Box 440, 2605 White Mountain Highway, North Conway, NH 03860 603-356-6936), upon a non-refundable payment of $65 per set ($15 for regular postage and $30 for US Postal Service overnight postage). A Pre-Bid conference will be held at the site, Friday, May 27, 2011 at 9 a.m. All potential Bidders are encouraged to attend. Notice to Proceed is expected to be June 21, 2011, and construction is expected to start immediately thereafter. The Work is to be substantially complete by July 29, 2011, and completed and ready for final payment on or before August 12, 2011.

in current contract negotiations. Negotiations went to mediation last fall, which he said failed. He said the city’s current position is to insist the local go from picking up 20 percent of its health insurance premium to 40 percent – for some an additional $60 a week from their paychecks. “We have full-time workers in the library and city hall taking home only $200 a week. To insist that those folks give up even more of their wages is a horrible way to treat people,” Miller said. He said the union made a counter offer to the city in December that would have saved $10,000 by offering insured members a choice of two over priced plans with a higher deductible for offi ce visits and prescriptions. Miller said the offer was refused and there have been no further efforts by the city to negotiate with the local. The result is an exodus of office workers and library staff to other employers. Miller said in just over six months, fi ve city hall employees have left for jobs that offered better wages and benefits. He said others are looking. Miller said the local understands these are difficult times for the council as it tries to balance the city budget. But he said the city manages to afford $300,000 in legal fees, $150,000 for the city manager’s contract, and $80,000 to outside agencies. “We simply can no longer afford to have the city balance its budget on our backs as it has done in the past,” he concluded.

by Lynn Johnston by Scott Adams

DILBERT

by Richard Thompson

By Holiday Mathis you’re around someone who seems to care very little about what other people think. You’re the same to some degree, and the rebel in you will soon emerge. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). There is room for you in the classroom of life. The lessons you want to learn will be available to you now. You’ll acquire special knowledge on your way to an aim that, to the untrained eye, might seem selfish. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19 ). Spoil yourself silly. Better yet, spoil yourself sleepy -- because you could use the extra rest. Remember, your body makes the growth hormones you need to repair your tissues when you are asleep. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). As you try to focus on healing one part of your life, you’ll have to deal with a dozen other factors that seem unrelated. Graciously accept what comes. These seemingly disparate infl uences will tie together in an amazing way. PISCES (Feb. 19 -March 20). You could use a team member who leads with his rationality. This person may seem at fi rst to be pessimistic, but he can prevent you from making mistakes with his critical thought patterns and orientation toward details. TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (May 20). Your social intelligence is off the charts, and love and laughter will fi ll this year. You are broadminded. You understand the plights of opposing ideologies and make up your own mind about what to believe. You’ll sell a large-ticket item in June. September is also a profi table time. You’ll reach a personal milestone in November. Aries and Virgo people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 31, 36, 34, 43 and 32.

Cul de Sac

HOROSCOPE ARIES (March 21-April 19 ). You’ll travel light and move fast. You’ll say fewer words and have more impact. You’ll spend less money and purchase only the most important items. Power and economy go hand in hand. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You are relying on others for something you could do on your own. All you need to acquire are a few tools and skills. It’s affordable, and you have the time to do this now. You’ll save money in the end. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Be mindful of the ﬂ ow of material items in and out of your life. You’re not interested in excess and have no desire to waste resources. However, such things may happen along the way to an ambitious goal. CANCER (June 22-July 22). Why wait until you are feeling low to give yourself a proper pat on the back? Do it while you’re in a good mood, and you’ll create an even better one, favorably affecting the atmosphere around you. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Wealth and prosperity do not guarantee you a place in another person’s heart. Instead of making an effort to impress someone, make an effort to listen to and understand this person. It’s more loveable. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You seek a freer state of mind. This will happen as you interact with people you know you can trust. Surround yourself with people who make you feel spontaneous, loose and playful. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Bumps, blips and glitches can either make your work interesting, or make you feel frustrated and irritable. There is comedy gold to mine here, so keep your sense of humor. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Social interaction will inspire you, especially if

CO-ED CAN’T ESCAPE SHADOW OF LONGTIME HIGH SCHOOL RIVAL

DEAR ABBY: “Maya” and I competed throughout high school. We shared common interests -- even friends, who would blow me off to hang out with her. We were involved in speech and debate and were nominated for the girls’ state team. I was deemed “too qualifi ed,” so Maya got the nomination. She ran against me for speech president and I won by a huge margin. Then the coach decided she wanted us to be “co-presidents” and announced to everyone that the vote was tied. I was one-upped constantly. Later, to my chagrin, I discovered we’d be going to the same college. I was told I’d probably never see her because of the large campus. Well, last semester she joined two activities I’m involved in. We rushed for a prestigious pre-law organization. She was accepted; I wasn’t. As it turns out, we both want to go to the same law school and become corporate attorneys. Maya is pretty, popular and charming. I am plain and by no means popular. I can’t stand to lose one more thing to her. After all these coincidences, we’ll probably end up in the same law fi rm. What can I do to stop feeling so awful about myself as Maya continues to take away all the things I care about most? -- TIRED OF SECOND PLACE DEAR TIRED: Your high school speech coach’s obvious favoritism for Maya was terrible, and for that I am sorry. But you have allowed your feelings of being constantly oneupped to become a self-fulfilling prophecy. Stop concentrating on Maya and start devoting all of your attention to yourself and your goals. While good looks and charm are powerful assets, so are being brilliant, self-assured

and accomplished in one’s ﬁ eld. Let the future take care of itself and you may be pleasantly surprised to ﬁ nd out that she’s not in it. Or if she is, that she’s no longer the focus of your obsession and you are BOTH successful. DEAR ABBY: My 18-year-old son, “Kyle,” lives with his mother in a nearby town. I have always tried to be a good father, but despite countless phone calls, visits and vacations together we never really bonded. Kyle is a smart, nice kid, but he has no hobbies, no friends, no girlfriends or interests that I have ever seen. He rarely leaves the house except for school. I haven’t been able to get him to engage in a sport or activity with me or show any type of “normal” kid behavior. He spent part of last summer with me, and when I asked him questions about his life and wanted to take him for a doctor’s exam (he’s never had one!), he begged his mom to come “rescue” him, which she did. She refuses to discuss this and says Kyle’s just shy. I feel I must do something, but what? Maybe if my ex reads this she’ll listen to someone else. Abby, don’t you see a possible problem here? -- DADDY IN THE DARK IN TEXAS DEAR DADDY IN THE DARK: I certainly do. And had you intervened while your son was still a minor, there might have been some way to have had him medically and psychologically evaluated. But he’s an adult now. And unless he is willing to admit there is a problem and seek help for it, there isn’t a darn thing you can do at this late date. If there are other male family members Kyle trusts, you might try recruiting their assistance.

LANCASTER -- On June 8th from 6-8pm at the Lancaster Methodist Church, the NH Chapter of the National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI NH) will offer a free dinner presentation to all interested community members. The presentation will feature two speakers who have personal experience with mental illness and have completed speaker training with a goal of educating their communities about mental illness recovery. The presenters will share about their own recovery; how they learned about, coped with, and promoted their own health, the health of their family, and that of their loved one with mental illness. As one audience member from a recent North Country presentation said, “The speaker has real life experience which brings a whole new perspective to stigma and the outcomes for people with mental illness”. Come gain insight into living with mental illness from a personal and family perspective and learn about the resources available to you and your community. Everyone is welcome!

Headstart students participate in AMC educational program BERLIN -- Students from Berlin Headstart participated in an environmental education program on three days last week facilitated by the Appalachian Mountain Club’s education staff. The experience, part of the AMC’s North Country Outreach program, was held at Berlin Headstart and at Community Park. Guided by Appalachian Mountain Club instructors, students ranging in age from three to five years old learned about some of the animals present in the White Mountains as a part of their “I am moving, I am learning” curriculum. Using fun, active games, students mimicked animal movement patterns and learned about habitat and animal behaviors. Through the Coos County Community Partnerships for Youth program, the AMC works with local schools and youth organizations to help young people connect with the natural world and to increase the skills and knowledge they need to understand our world’s complex environmental challenges. Over 1,700 youth per year participate in AMC’s free or reducedcost recreational and academic outdoor experiences. Programs can be customized for each group, including school classes and clubs, after-school programs, scouting groups and other youth organizations, and may be tailored to classroom learning or state
