Man indicted for Pittsburg shooting BY CRAIG LYONS THE BERLIN DAILY SUN

LANCASTER— The Coos County grand jury Friday indicted a Pittsburg man for murder, attempted murder and first-degree assault for allegedly shooting three people last November. Kenneth Arsenault, 50, of Pittsburg, stands charged with first-degree murder, seconddegree murder, two counts of attempted firstdegree murder and two counts for first-degree assault stemming from November 2 incident when Arsenault allegedly shot three people at his house, on Baker Drive, in Pittsburg. The first-degree and second-degree murder charges alleged Arsenault caused the death of Justin Flanders, 21, by shooting him with a shotgun and leaving his body in a burning car. The N.H. Medical Examiner determined Flanders’ cause of death was a combination of the shotgun wound, which perforated his heart, and severe thermal injuries. The two attempted murder and two firstdegree assault charges allege that he shot Tanya Rancloes 30, in the shoulder and chest area, and Jessie Parker, 25, was shot with see SHOOTING page 13

Date set for Laidlaw hearing BY BARBARA TETREAULT THE BERLIN DAILY SUN

BERLIN – The N.H. Site Evaluation Committee has set May 18 at the date for its hearing on the motion to transfer its permit to build a 70-megawatt biomass plant in Berlin from Laidlaw Berlin BioPower to Berlin Station LLC. The SEC last year issued a conditional certificate of site and facility to Laidlaw. Since then, Laidlaw has announced a major corporate reorganization. The developer also announced a change in its major contractor and wood supplier as well as an increase in generation to 75 megawatts. Laidlaw and Berlin Station filed a joint motion with the SEC asking the regulatory committee to approve the changes and allow the permit to be transferred. Counsel for the Public, represented by the state Attorney-General’s office, filed a response to the joint motion, arguing it represents a new operation significantly different from what was approved last fall.

Route 110 design charrette held over the weekend BY BARBARA TETREAULT THE BERLIN DAILY SUN

BERLIN – Interested residents had an opportunity this weekend to provide input and see some proposed options to minimize the impact of the second phase of the Route 110 upgrade. The state Department of Transportation hired Jeffrey Taylor & Associates to lead a design charrette Friday and Saturday in Berlin. Phase Two picks up when Phase One ended near the police station on Green Street and continues on to just beyond the Monreau Movers building on Wight Street. In between the two end points, part of the project will construct a new roadway, requiring the acquisition of 26 buildings plus additional land. Because of the new roadway and alignment, the

project will create a lot of undeveloped space within the public right of way. The charrette’s charge was to develop proposals to use the undeveloped land to enhance the neighborhood. Taylor noted the Route 110 upgrade has been decades in the making. DOT is currently in the acquisition phase and has acquired over half the property required for Phase Two. Taylor said the report developed by the team will be used as DOT does its final design over the next nine months. The project is scheduled to be completed in 2013. The charrette started Friday afternoon with a tour of the impacted neighborhood that attracted a good crowd. The two public input sessions on Friday and Saturday’s breakout session drew limsee CHARRETTE page 21

Census: How happy are you?

SOMERVILLE, Mass. — When they filled out the city’s census forms this spring, the people of Somerville got a new question. On a scale of 1 to 10, they were asked, “How happy do you feel right now?” Surveys are asking residents like Lee Simonds about their city, as well as questions that seem plucked from a personality test. Officials here want this Boston suburb to become the first city in the United States to systematically track people’s happiness. Like leaders in Britain, France and a few other places, they want to move beyond the traditional measures of success — economic growth — to promote policies that produce more than just material well-being. Monitoring the citizenry’s happiness has been advocated by prominent psychologists and economists, but not without debate over how to do it and whether happiness is even the right thing for politicians to be promoting. The pursuit of happiness may be an inalienable right, but that is not the same as reporting blissful feelings on a questionnaire. So far, more than 7,500 people have mailed back the survey, some of them clearly not limiting their answers to municipal concerns. In response to the question “How satisfied are you with your life in general?” one man gave himself only a 6, explaining, “I would like to be three inches taller and speak Quechua fluently.”

SAYWHAT...

The purpose of our lives is to be happy.” —Dalai Lama

U.S.: DNA confirms body is bin laden’s

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

WASHINGTON (NY Times) — Calling it a “good day for America,” President Obama said on Monday that the death of Osama bin Laden had made the world “a better place,” as new details emerged about the overnight raid and firefight in Pakistan that killed him. Bin Laden, the leader of Al Qaeda and the most hunted man in the world, was found not in the remote tribal areas along the Pakistani-Afghan border where he has long been presumed to be sheltered, but in

a large compound in the city of Abbottabad, about an hour’s drive north from the Pakistani capital of Islamabad. The compound, only about a third of a mile from a military academy of the Pakistani Army, is at the end of a narrow dirt road and is roughly eight times the size of other homes in the area. It has no telephone or Internet connections. When American operatives converged on the residence early on Monday morning, Bin

Laden “resisted the assault force” and was shot in the head and killed near the end of an intense 40-minute gun battle, senior administration officials said. One of Bin Laden’s wives, who was living in the compound with him, identified his body after the fighting stopped, and officials said the Central Intelligence Agency analysis found a “virtually 100 percent” match between his DNA and that of several members of his family.

Al Qaeda’s No. 2 is seen as lacking Officials appear ready to bin Laden’s inspirational allure blow up Birds Point Levee (NY Times) — Ayman alZawahri, long the second in command in Al Qaeda, who is likely to succeed Osama bin Laden as its leader, released five recordings between January and April trying to link the uprisings across the Arab world to the jihadist inspiration behind the Sept. 11 attacks. “Our Islamic nation is engaged in one battle against the contemporary crusader invaders campaign and against their agents, our corrupt and corruptive rulers,” he said in the last recording, released in April. “America’s detachment

from its allies one after another is one of the signs of its retreat from its conceit and arrogance ever since it was attacked in New York, Washington and Pennsylvania.” But the jihadist battle cry has not been particularly relevant to the uprisings, and Zawahri even apologized in his messages for often being behind the curve on developments in the Arab world — the result of being on the run, he said. Zawahri’s effort to cast Al Qaeda as a central player in militant Islamic politics could become even more difficult with the death of bin Laden.

CHARLESTON, Mo. (NY Times) — In an apparent sign that final preparations are being made to blow up a levee in an effort to ease the bloated Mississippi River upstream, the Army Corps of Engineers has given 24-hour notice to evacuate the floodway, county officials here said. “They notified us this morning,” said Janice McCameron, a deputy with the Mississippi County Sheriff’s Department in Charleston. “The spillway is already completely evacuated.” Jim Pogue, a spokesman for the corps, said he had not heard of any evacuation, but “we encourage everyone to be out of the flood plain.” The plan to blow a two-mile-long gap in the Birds Point levee is intended to save the town of Cairo, Ill., on the east side of the river, from flooding. The breach would instead inundate about 130,000 acres of farmland on the other side of the river in Missouri.

Hundreds gather for dedication of Gold Star Mother statue

MANCHESTER — Several hundred gathered Sunday for the dedication of the second Gold Star Mother’s statue erected in the nation to salute the women who lost sons and daughters during armed conflicts. “No greater debt can a mother pay than to give her son and daughter” to defend the country as members of the armed services, Col. Carolyn J. Protzmann told the crowd. And “no greater sorrow can a mother endure” than to lose her child in its conflicts, added Protzmann, the vice wing commander of the 157th Air Refueling Wing at Pease Air National Base who will soon become deputy adjutant general of the New Hampshire National Guard. The haunting, life-sized bronze sculpture of a mother stricken by the news of her fallen child is vintage World War II. But the tears and painfilled eyes are universal. She stands on a grassy knoll in Stanton Plaza, her eyes fixed on the American flag across Elm Street in Veterans Memorial Park. “Our nation owes our Gold Star Mothers the deepest gratitude,” Protzmann said.Their service and sacrifice “represent the nation’s greatest good” and show that it is “in giving that we heal,” she added. The Gold Star Mothers were formed during World War I in 1918 as a support group for mothers whose sons and

daughters died while serving in the armed forces during military conflicts. The statue is the result of years of hard work. It was initially intended to honor New Hampshire Gold Star Mothers; the concept was soon expanded to include all New England mothers. But Manchester will remain its host. The city is the geographic center of New England, organizers say. And New Hampshire was “ground zero” for the inspiration and commitment that made it come true, said retired U.S. Army Lt. Col. William Trueheart of Bedford, who is chairman of the New Hampshire Gold Star Mothers Memorial Association. This particular statue design is one of six that Pennsylvania artist Andrew Chernak will create. The first already stands in Kent, N.Y. Others are planned for Washington, D.C., the Midwest, Southwest and Pacific Coast. National Vietnam and Gulf War Veterans Coalition Director Frank Emiro said the sculpture in the firstin-the-nation primary state will serve as an inspiration and educational tool. “Every single person who runs for President needs to understand someone gave their son and daughter so they could run for office,” the Londonderry resident said. Emiro and Trueheart received awards for their work in educating the public about the Gold Star Mothers. —Courtesy of The Union Leader

N.H. mother of Navy SEAL killed in Afghanistan proud elite unit got bin Laden BY JASON SCHREIBER THE UNION LEADER

EXETER – Natalie Healy calls the death of Osama bin Laden “sweet justice.” Six years ago her son, Navy SEAL Daniel Healy of Exeter, and 10 others died in Afghanistan in the largest single-day loss of life in Navy SEAL history. Healy always hoped that one day the other members of her son’s elite team would hunt down the mastermind of the Sept. 11 attacks. That day came yesterday, and the news brought Healy to tears. “I think this is a wonderful honor to the legacy of all the SEALs lost, not just that day (the day her son died), and all of the men and women lost. It’s such a remarkable mission,” Healy said Monday morning.

Healy, 36, was killed when his helicopter was shot down in Afghanistan. The father of four was among eight SEALs and eight 160th Nightstalkers on a helicopter on a mission to rescue four other SEALs who had come under attack. All were killed, along with three of the SEALs they tried to rescue. As she tried to absorb the news of bin Laden’s death, Natalie Healy recalled the time in 2005 before her son’s death when she was frustrated by all of the new regulations imposed after 9/11 while flying home from Florida. She was talking to her son and told him that they had to get bin Laden. “We’re working on it,” he told her. “They were going out into the mountains. They were risking their lives. ... They were trying to get him and his cronies,” she said.

Why should I join the chamber of commerce? To the editor: Over the years I’ve been asked this question several times. When I first became involved with the chamber in 2007, I struggled to come up with a convincing answer. Obviously the chamber of commerce concept had been around for many years, but I needed to go through a learning curve to fully appreciate the answer to this question to the level I do today! In my mind there are two answers to this question. The standard text book answer and the heart felt emotional answer. The “standard” answer.

The Fish Cop Nicholas Howe

Tuesday's edition of The Conway Daily Sun told of Fish and Game officers involved in what would seem to be police work in the parking lot at the Cranmore ski area in North Conway. Someone asked me why game wardens would be on a job like that, and I knew why. Paul Doherty was the first game warden I knew when I was a teenager working for Joe Dodge at the AMC headquarters in Pinkham Notch. Joe began running that operation in 1922 when it was just a small cabin on a road that was not plowed in the winter and there was one other employee in Boston. Joe was bossy, profane, and loved by all who knew him, and when there was trouble in the mountains he'd say, "Call the god-dammed fish cop." That was not swearing, it was the sign of Joe's highest regard. Paul Doherty was from the Fish and Game Department and he was the person who should catch Joe when he was fishing without a license, but he knew that even the long arm of the law would only reach so far and he never bothered Joe. He was also one of Joe's most valued allies when there was trouble in the mountains. I first knew Paul when he was what we called the Ranger Ranger, the man who patrolled the mountains, and one day in his old age I asked him how Fish and Game got involved with search and rescue. He said, "I can tell you exactly what happened," and this, in very condensed form, is what he said. Quoting now... When that plane crashed on Mt. Success, there was no responsibility for anybody doing anything for aircraft other than the FAA. But as far as any ground searching for lost people or plane crashes, there was no state organization. The locals did it. The state police were not to any extent involved in jobs off the highways, and when the plane crashed I figured it was going to be down somewhere in the woods and I went to the Brown timber company in Berlin and got a bunch of woodsmen standing by. Hugh Gregg was governor and he was gung-ho to come on the scene whenever something like that happened, so he was up here. The mountains were all capped in with clouds and I was up at the Berlin airport when the clouds lifted and one of the planes spotted the wreckage. I stood right there by a person named Claude that was talking on the radio, trying to get a location of the plane on the ground. The fellow was a long-time Brown Company man in the woods department and he said where the plane was. There was two or three people standing around and they said, No, they didn't think that was right and Governor Gregg was standing right there and I said, If Claude says where it is, I know exactly where it is. We can rely on him, he's an old woodsman, he knows what he's talking about. I knew the logging roads and I took a crew to the Labonville cutting job in the Leadmine Brook country and the wreckage was exactly where the old woodsman said it was. Governor Gregg listened to all this and he said something to the effect that if this officer says he thinks he knows where it is, I'm going to rely on his judgment. We had a meeting that night which was

rehashing the search. The governor was there and he seemed to be impressed that I had already got an organization, put things in motion, and when the plane was located we were ready to go. Then he went back to Concord and wrote an executive order putting Fish and Game in charge of search and rescue. There was legislation drafted that put his executive order into law spelling out that the primary responsibility for all drowning cases, people lost in the woods, ground searches for downed aircraft and so forth, would be the responsibility of the Fish and Game Department. In those days the ranger district had three men. They had an office in Gorham on the second floor over a bank and there was a sign on the door that said the ranger would be in the office on rainy days only, but their participation with any accidents in the hills was limited because they didn't have that many personnel. Joe Dodge was the backbone of the searches around Mount Washington, so one day there was an avalanche up in Tuckerman Ravine and Joe tried to get something done that day, but the weather was just terrible and Joe said, “Call the goddamn fish cop and tell him to get his ass up here.” We brought the body down to Pinkham and this girl began to scream. It was Polly Longnecker and she said, “That's the man that was with my brother.” She had gone up there with them and they built an igloo and she was going to spend the night, but it was so cold that she didn't, she came down. And that was the positive identification of the dead man. Joe took a bunch of us up immediately and it was so cold and windy and blowing snow up there and Joe said, Nothing we can do to, get out of here. So early the next day we went charging back up the trail. There was a fracture line all the way across the headwall of the Ravine and a massive slide had come down. That fracture made you wonder if anything else was going to happen, so Joe had somebody watching it and the search began. The girl Polly went up with us and no way could she tell where the igloo was, so there was quite a bunch of people poking and digging around. Polly tried to tell us where they'd been, but she couldn't really tell and there'd been such a godawful avalanche that the whole floor of the ravine was covered. The fracture went all the way across the headwall and she'd say, Well, I think it was here, but I'm not sure. Then somebody found a piece of an orange and there was a lot of digging at that point. I'll never forget him in his sleeping bag. He lay on his back with his hands on his chest and his sleeping bag zipped up and there was a very contented look on his face as though he was sleeping. He just lay there and we figured that the slide came down over him and he didn't know what hit him. There was no agony look on his face and there was absolutely nothing to indicate where they camped, it was just smooth and there was some talk afterwards of why anybody would want to sleep that close to the headwall anyway.

Thanks for making BYH Squirt season so successful To the editor: I’d like to take a few minutes to offer thanks to the many people that helped to make the 2010-2011 Berlin Youth Hockey Squirt season such a success. In many ways it is difficult to believe that spring is already here. To quickly recap: Our season started and our journey began last September as we played in our regular state and seacoast divisions. The team worked with force, earning second place in their regular state division leading them to win the state championship in March. This win presented us the opportunity to compete in the sectionals hosted in Lebanon, NH. This was truly an honor and a sensational experience for the team. Let’s also not forget bringing home the win in both the First Annual Thanksgiving NRI Viking Tournament in November and the Barre Memorial Tournament in Barre Vermont in February.

The pain just from rinsing with water can send patients straight to the ceiling. There are many reasons for sensitive teeth; brushing, food choices, and exposed root surfaces. Depending on the reason for sensitivity, the list of procedures and products to help decrease this problem is extensive. Tooth whitening is a common reason. Some patients are very susceptible to sensitivity during this process. Some patients cannot finish the at-home treatment because of hypersensitivity caused by the whitening agent. Another cause is specialty toothpastes. Stain removing toothpastes are often abrasive and can remove protective layers of fluoride-rich enamel. Patients who clench their teeth during

intense exercise or in stressful situations or who grind their teeth also may have tooth sensitivity. Cold water, air or foods may be unbearable for them. Unbalanced occlusal forces may also contribute to this kind of pain. A diet high in acidic foods such as citrus fruits and tomatoes is also a reason. A question about frequent stomach upset or heartburn may help determine that the patient has gastroesophageal reflux disease. If caries is concurrent with the heartburn symptom, close monitoring of the teeth, possibly quarterly, is imperative. Dr. Roland Montminy has been in practice at 73 Main Street since 1973.

North Woods Acupuncture 752-3800

In days gone by, I used to hear the older sergeants in the Army reply, “I’ve got no heartburn with that.” They were essentially saying that they could live with whatever was going on, whether it was somebody borrowing a piece of equipment, loaning a soldier to another team on temporary assignment, or being asked to work late to complete a task. Whatever it was, the situation wasn’t going to cause them stress. Even the old salt-of-the-earth Army sergeants recognized that stress caused heartburn. Over the past 40 years, the way medicine views heartburn has changed. In the past, the common treatment was to take some Rolaids (a common antacid) and cut down on greasy food. Now the mechanism of heartburn is better understood. Heartburn is now called acid reflux, which means that the stomach acid is washing onto the esophagus. This washing is allowed to occur by a failure of the cardia, which is a one way valve that prevents stomach acid from entering the esophagus. Injury to the esophagus is a possibility with long term uncontrolled acid reflux. Esophageal cancer has been linked to damage to the esophagus. There are several ways to reduce heartburn. Doctors will suggest that heartburn sufferers lose weight and eat smaller portions, especially in the evening. Some doctors suggest keeping a food diary and noting which foods cause the most heartburn, followed by eliminating the most offending foods from the patient’s diet. Other suggestions include quitting smoking, avoiding alcohol, and wearing loose fitting clothes. There are several choices of over-the-counter remedies available as well. Antacids such as Rolaids, Pepto-Bismol, and Alka-Seltzer neutralize stomach acid to reduce heartburn. Acid blockers such as Pepcid AC prevent the stomach from secreting acid to reduce heartburn. Your physician might prescribe stronger versions of the antacids or acid blockers if

these measures provide little relief. According to a 2005 study conducted in Taiwan, acupuncture can be effective both in reducing stomach acid and improving the function of the cardia. Acupuncture works on the premise that heartburn is caused by an imbalance in the flow of energy in the body. By placing the needles in strategic locations, called acupuncture points, the acupuncturist can help balance the flow of energy in the body to reduce the symptoms of heartburn or eliminate the condition altogether. Chinese herbal medicine has helped many find relief as well. The problem is broken into two parts. The first part is the failure of the cardia to prevent the washing of stomach acid into the esophagus. This is viewed as rebellious, or rising, energy from the stomach. In health, stomach energy descends; in disease, stomach energy rises. There are a variety of herbs available that cause stomach energy to descend. The second part of the problem is the excess secretion of stomach acid. This is viewed as stomach heat. The energy of the stomach should be balanced between too cold and too hot. Too cold and the stomach has trouble digesting food; too hot and the stomach starts to burn and create heartburn. Many herbs are available to cool the temperature of a hot stomach. So before reaching for the relief of medications that look so promising on TV, I encourage you to try some of the alternatives mentioned in this article. Enjoy your food and enjoy good health!

La Leche League 466-5109

If you’re breastfeeding or planning to, here are some myths that are UNtrue about breastfeeding. “Some moms can’t make enough milk for their babies.” Actually, although some moms find they need to work a bit harder than others to make milk, most of the time there are ways to increase your supply that are easy enough to put into action. “It’s normal for it to hurt to breastfeed.” Although it’s common for many moms to find they are sore when baby first starts to nurse, this pain or discomfort should go away in two or three days and if it doesn’t you should see a lactation consultant (LC) or your local La Leche League (LLL) leader. This pain may lead to other more serious problems and should be taken care of as soon as possible.

“If a mom needs to go back to work after her maternity leave, she probably cannot breastfeed.” With the economy the way it is right now, it’s common for many moms to go back to work after their leave. This does not mean that a mom cannot breastfeed, but that her course of breastfeeding may need to be different than moms who do not have to go back to work. Consulting a La Leche League leader or a lactation consultant will help answer questions that these moms may have. Lastly, although there may be obstacles or questions for moms regarding many breastfeeding issues, there are many solutions that will help you and your baby have a successful nursing relationship!

Next came employment with Top Sports Plaza; yes, the good folks of Top Furniture were involved in motorcycles and snowmobiles. I was very lucky to work with some sharp people at that establishment. Next was a period in time that a gentleman named Roland Leveille of Rocket Snowmobile hired me. Roland was a guy who had the insight of an engineer, the repair

vision of MacGiver, and the humor of a guy who was just, a great all-around person. I learned a lot from Roland, even a few choice French words. Then it was down to Gorham to Steve’s Sport Center.

Five maintenance measures your car probably doesn’t need BY JOSH MAX AOL AUTOS

Engine Flushes ($100-$200) An engine flush uses a machine and chemicals to rid your engine’s innards of sludge, but it’s not a normal maintenance checkpoint unless you’ve neglected your engine. We checked in with Tom Torbjornsen, maintenance editor at AOL Autos for his perspective. “Change your oil according to manufacturer’s recommendations and you won’t need an engine flush,” Torbjornsen said. An examination into your oil-filler lid will reveal deposits and gunk. Fuel-Injection Cleaning ($125-$200) “If your Check Engine light isn’t on and your car’s running fine,” says Popular Mechanics’s Mike Allen, whose team of testers have debunked dozens of phony gadgets, “Skip this.” Torbjornsen agrees. “An upper engine carbon cleaning is a good thing to have every 35,000 miles because of varnish deposits,” Torbjornsen said. “When fuel injectors get dirty and deposits build up, you get poor fuel economy. But not every year. Once a year is overkill.” Oil Additives ($5 and up) There are numerous oil additives on the market ranging from products designed to reduce friction and

bolster fuel economy to those whose manufacturers claim their product will allow you to run your engine dry of oil without damaging bearings. Steer clear of all. “Oil additives are designed to fortify and bolster the engine,” Torbjornsen said. “But if you’re following normal maintenance producers, you don’t need it. In the testimonials you’ll find on websites selling this stuff, people say they can drive without oil because of some magic elixir. But a real-world tester always fails.” Gas Savers ($10-$400) Some of the pseudo-scientific gas savers on the market just plain don’t work and may actually hurt engine performance, says Torbjornsen. The E.P.A. has tested over 100, from pills you pop into your tank to “cow magnets,” and none have proven effective. Long-Life Antifreeze ($4-$8 Per Quart) There isn’t any evidence that “long life” antifreeze is any better for your radiator than standard antifreeze, and you shouldn’t assume that because you’ve bought and used it, you can ignore maintaining your radiator, says Torbjornsen. “I recommend a 2-year, 24,000 mile flush regardless of what kind of antifreeze is in your radiator,” he said. “Especially if you live in a wintery climate.” And don’t mix coolants, either, says Allen. “That’s asking for trouble, especially if your car’s engineered for a specific type of anti-freeze.” Visit www.autos.aol.com.

“The applicant believes this corporate consolidation simplifies the project structure while also strengthening it by having a single entity own the land, the facility, be the party to all contracts, and pursuant to subcommittee approval, the certificate holder,” Laidlaw states. While Berlin Station retains ownership and responsibility for the project, the motion states New Market Tax Credit rules prohibit it from directly operating the plant. Because of that restriction, Berlin Station will lease the facility to Burgess BioPower. Laidlaw said it intents to replace Homeland Renewable Energy and Fibrowatt Operations as the major contractors providing construction, operation, and management services with Waldron Engineering and Construction, Inc. Laidlaw said the replacement was at the urging of lenders to add greater technical and operation strength to the project team. Waldron had worked on the project earlier. The SEC certificate requires Laidlaw to have a signed fuel agreement with Cousineau Forest Products before the start of construction. In the motion, Laidlaw is asking to be allowed to change suppliers and replace Cousineau with Richard Carrier Trucking, Inc. Laidlaw noted Carrier is substantially larger than Cousineau and has operations in Milan, Henniker, Shelburne, and Brentwood. Laidlaw said the stipulations placed on the fuel supply contract, including the requirement to adhere to sustainability forestry practices, would be retained. Finally, Laidlaw is asking to amend the certificate to increase the facility’s generating capacity from 70 megawatts to 75 megawatts. It attributes the increase to improve efficiency and said there will be no increase in wood supply needs or emissions.

Attorney General Allen Brooks urged the SEC to provide all parties opportunities for discovery including data requests and technical sessions to develop a “complete record”. In the end, the joint applicants and Counsel for the Public agreed on a procedural schedule that they presented to the SEC at the April 22 public hearing. As approved by the SEC, all data requests must be received by Wednesday, May 4 with responses to the request due by May 11. A technical session will be held on May 13 at a site yet to be determined. The city was approved as an intervenor. The SEC also approved Edrest Properties LLC as an intervenor over the objections of the joint applicants. Edrest Manager Jonathan Edwards, an opponent of the Laidlaw biomass project, successfully argued that his company owns, leases, or manages properties within 200 feet of the facility and along truck routes to the plant. But the SEC warned Edrest its intervention would be limited to the issues raised in the motion and the company would not be allowed to re-litigate the granting of the permit. The SEC denied a handwritten letter to intervene from Thomas Maniscalco of Gorham, ruling he did not provide any facts or information to support his request. Laidlaw said the reorganization and other changes were changes necessary to secure the financing for the project. NewCo Energy LLC, a project company managed by Cate Street Capital, would remain the principal owner. The motion to the SEC said a new corporate entity, Berlin Station, will be formed to replace PJPD Holdings LLC and Laidlaw Berlin BioPower, LLC.

Doris V. Carberry

––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– OBITUARY –––––––––––––––––––––––––––––

LISBON FALLS, ME. – Doris V. Carberry, 81, died Friday, April 29, 2011, from injuries sustained in a motor vehicle accident in Gilead, Me. Born in Berlin, NH, on February 16, 1930, she was the daughter of Henry and Matilda Brodeur Alphonse. In 1948, she graduated from Berlin High School and married Clifford H. Carberry, her husband of 22 years with whom she had five children. A devoted mother, she was an accomplished ice skater and bowler. She also enjoyed square dancing. As a military spouse, she traveled extensively throughout the eastern United States and Canada enjoying many rich experiences, ultimately settling in the Brunswick area. In Brunswick, Doris worked at Grand City department store until moving to Lisbon Falls in 1968. Later, she worked at the Brunswick Naval Air Station and the Holiday Inn until her retirement. Always active in retirement, she frequently traveled with her daughter Marie throughout the United States. For the last several years, she and partner William Kramer wintered in Florida, where they developed friendships with other "snowbirds" from around the country. For the last three winters, they were joined by Marie and her fiance Dick Turgeon. Doris' summers in Maine were spent gardening in the back yard, birdwatching, and spending time with family and friends.

9/11 widow says she takes no joy in bin Laden’s death LEE, — On a day when many Americans celebrated the death of Osama bin Laden, the widow of a University of New Hampshire professor killed on 9/11 was not jubilant. Bob LeBlanc was a geography professor for 35 years. He was in the second airplane that flew into the World Trade Center. For his widow, Andrea LeBlanc, the idea of celebrating the loss of any life is counter to all that she and her husband believed. LeBlanc said Monday was eerily similar to Sept. 11, 2001. The phone was ringing constantly with news of a death.

Ten years ago, she was learning about her husband’s death, while Monday, she was fielding calls from reporters asking for her opinion about the death of the man who planned the attack. She said she was not overjoyed to hear of bin Laden’s death. “For me, this is why I don’t feel this is a cause for celebration,” she said. “I am concerned that we’ve now created a martyr and that there will be repercussions and that we will be less safe than we were before.” LeBlanc said her husband was a student of the world who had an insatiable thirst for travel and a love for

people and their cultures. She said her husband would also not rejoice in bin Laden’s death. “From the beginning, I’ve wished to be able to talk to him about what this was all about and where did it all come from,” she said. LeBlanc said healing began for her when she discovered other likeminded survivors and founded September 11 Families for Peaceful Tomorrows, a group that released a statement Monday saying that more work needs to be done. “One person may have played a central role in the Sept. 11 attacks, but all

of us have a role to play in returning our world to a place of peace, hope and new possibilities,” the group said. “We hope that process will begin today.” A granite bench on the UNH campus offers a tribute to Bob LeBlanc. His widow is private about her grief, but she said the best legacy to his life is tolerance “He celebrated life and the differences out there, and he wanted everyone to share that,” she said. LeBlanc said she’s concerned that just because one terror leader is gone doesn’t mean the end to terrorism. —Courtesy of WMUR


Remembering names topic of next AVH health lecture

BERLIN -- Androscoggin Valley Hospital invites the public to its next health education lecture titled, “There’s Good Old What’s His Name: Exercises to Improve your Recall of People’s Names.” The lecture, to be presented by Paul B. Lister, M.A., C.C.C., speech pathologist, will be held in the auditorium of Berlin City Hall at 6 p.m. Monday, May 9. As Lister explains, “Once we hit forty years old, our ability to remember names of family members, friends and acquaintances often becomes an exercise in futility.” Five easy, fun and effective strategies will be presented to help attendees significantly improve their ability to recall people’s names. These techniques include name games that users will enjoy practicing with one’s spouse or by him/herself. Attendees will leave with the realization that it truly can be easy to unlock one’s memory and ability to recall names. For more information about this and/or any other AVH Health Education Lecture, please call James Patry, AVH public relations and marketing director, at (603) 326-5606.

DILBERT

by Scott Adams

By Holiday Mathis then recedes just as quickly. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You might take certain shortcuts when you’re walking alone, but you wouldn’t bring others down the same potentially treacherous path -- too risky. Your protective nature emerges tonight. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You’ve worked hard to achieve a certain standard in your work, and now you need to work just as hard to market it. The response you receive will be directly correlated to the number of times you put yourself out there. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You infuse your activities with the qualities that make you shine: attitude, vision and creativity. A little nuisance project could be the start of a huge enterprise. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You’ll have double the energy of yesterday, so don’t let it go to waste. Go beyond what you did yesterday. If you walked a mile, walk two. If you read an article, finish the whole magazine. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You’ll benefit by trying to see the other side of an equation. For instance, maybe it’s not the people involved in a problem who are to blame for it, but the situation and environment they are in. TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (May 3). You have skills, and the next 10 weeks bring several opportunities to apply them and gain maximum personal and financial satisfaction. July brings the attainment of a treasured possession. Domestic life gains fresh energy in August. You’ll attract fans in September. You share a special connection with Scorpio and Cancer people. Your lucky numbers are: 7, 40, 18, 43 and 14.

Cul de Sac

ARIES (March 21-April 19). You go out of your way to get mental perspective. No one can accuse you of missing the forest for the trees. You’ll see the trees, the forest, the continent they are on and the curve of the planet. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You’re not sure how far to take an idea. There are expenses involved, and you’re not sure whether it would be worthwhile to incur those expenses. The answer is: not yet. Don’t put your money into this until you are certain. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Staying on course will be a challenge. Your mind fires in many directions at once. Your social interaction may feel unfocused. Yet the whimsy of your mood produces bits of creativity that turn out to be both interesting and lucrative. CANCER (June 22-July 22). There’s something you could do better if you had formal instruction in it. The training is not as difficult to get, time consuming or costly as you think it will be. Go for it! LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). There is a person who goes in after you clean, polish and present all the work you’ve done. Honor and praise this oftenunsung helper. Make your appreciation widely known. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). If you have thoughts that are inappropriate or prejudiced, keep them to yourself and don’t worry too much. This is only a sign that you have let down your guard and are in a highly creative mode. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). What a bit of fun you’ll get into today. Some might even call it trouble, and they wouldn’t be far off, either. But it’s the kind of fun/trouble that bubbles up and

WOMAN SECRETLY IN LOVE WANTS COACHING ON WHAT TO DO NOW

DEAR ABBY: I am a woman who is in love with my former high school coach. I don’t know if I should tell him. I first realized I loved him about a year and a half after I met him. We had an extremely close relationship, but it was not inappropriate. He is 13 years older than I am. After two years of getting to know him and forming a strong friendship, he moved across the country for work. Since then, I have entered college and we see each other only on holidays and in the summer. Every time I see him, we go back to our normal, wonderful relationship as though nothing has changed. I was in denial about my feelings for him. I told myself it was puppy love and couldn’t work out because of the age difference and the distance. But after four years of pining for him, and several failed romances with others, I realize I deeply love him. We have a unique connection, but he has a reputation as a “player,” so I can’t be sure he feels the same. I don’t want to ruin what we have, but I want more. Should I finally reveal my feelings? -- HURTING BADLY IN NEW ENGLAND DEAR HURTING BADLY: You and your former coach are both adults. I see no reason why you shouldn’t tell him how you feel. However, if he responds affirmatively, please be careful about how you proceed with this relationship. As you said -- he has a reputation as a player, and men with a craving for variety can be very unreliable. DEAR ABBY: I am in my mid-50s, divorced for many years, and have two grown children. I began seeing a delightful gentleman about three years ago. (I’ll call him Jack.) He was dating several women at the time, and after a few months, I made it clear that we would have to have an exclu-

sive relationship or I could not go on seeing him. Jack reluctantly agreed and kept his promise. Four months ago, I demanded a commitment from him. I knew I loved him and wanted to spend the rest of my life with him. He told me he loved me, but marriage is out of the question -- and if that is the only way I’d stay with him, we have to say goodbye. I think I have made a terrible mistake, Abby. What are your thoughts on this? -- DEPRESSED IN DES MOINES DEAR DEPRESSED: Since marriage is important to you, you were right to lay it on the line to him. His unwillingness, regardless of how nicely put, to take your relationship to another level means he wasn’t as committed to you as you were to him. And once your self-esteem heals, you will realize that the person who made the terrible mistake was Jack. DEAR ABBY: May I offer a suggestion concerning elderly people? I know this from experience. When writing to an older adult, every so often include some labels bearing your name and address. This makes it easier for them to respond and for the post office to decipher your address. I have an elderly friend who has severe arthritis. When we correspond, it takes me at least 20 minutes to make out what she has written. The labels have helped us both. -- INDEPENDENCE, MO., READER DEAR READER: I’m pleased to pass the word along. And because readers have complained that they get these labels along with solicitations from charities and don’t know what to do with them, this would be a good way to put them to use. Thank you for the suggestion.

Dear Abby is written by Abigail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips. Write Dear Abby at: Dear Abby, c/o The Conway Daily Sun, PO Box 1940, North Conway, NH 03860

Winnisquam’s Cote leads Bears past Mountaineers, 7-2 –––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– SPORTS –––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––

BY JEAN LEBLANC THE BERLIN DAILY SUN

TILTON -- Winnisquam ace Jordan Cote limited Berlin to just two runs, lifting his team to a 7-2 victory over the visiting Mountaineers in a Division III boy’s baseball contest recently. The home team scored seven runs off of three different Berlin pitchers. Seniors Bryar King, Elijah Hawkins, and Ryan Fortin, all took to the hill. The trio combined for two walks, a hit-batsman, and six strike-outs. The Bears scored one unearned run in the first inning. In the bottom of the third inning, a double, a bunt, a double,

an intentional walk, and a two-run single gave the home team a 4-0 lead. In the bottom of the fourth inning, three more Bear runs pushed the Winnisquam advantage to 7-0. Five Bear doubles on the day, fueled the Winnisquam offense. Matt Roy had two doubles, knocked in three runs, and scored three times for the home team. On the mound, the hard throwing Cote was accurate. The righty did not walk a Berlin hitter and set down 12 Mountie batters on strikes. However, the Mountaineers did push across two runs in the top of the sixth inning. Center fielder Ryan

Fortin had an infield single, and was followed by consecutive hits from Curtis Arsenault and Bryar King to load the bases. Senior first baseman, Eric Godin doubled in a pair of runs and it looked like the visiting Berlin boys were going to make a game out of it. However, Cote had other ideas and got real tough, using a pop out, strikeout, and a ground out to get out of the jam. For the game, Berlin got two hits from Fortin and Godin. “The Cote kid is very good,” said Mountie veteran mentor Dan Brigham. “He just pounds the strike

LITTLETON -- The Littleton Crusaders won the first two doubles games and went on to defeat the Berlin girl’s tennis team 5-4 in a tightly contested match in Littleton Monday.

Gorham rolls past Lumberjacks, 16-1 BY JEAN LEBLANC THE BERLIN DAILY SUN

LINCOLN -- The Gorham boy’s baseball team made it five straight wins, defeating the Linwood Lumberjacks 16-1 in a boy’s Division IV baseball game shortened to five innings in Lincoln Wednesday. The Huskies were the recipients of eight free passes, two hit batsman and three Lumberjack errors to attain the 16 runs. Senior Cody LeBlanc and junior Pat Pike were the repeat hit getters, both knocking in a pair of runs for the visiting Huskies. The Huskies plated two in the first inning on a Doug Willey sacrifice fly ball. In the top of the second inning, Gorham plated three markers. Back to back doubles by the Sanschagrin brothers, pushed the lead to 5-1 for Gorham. Gorham’s big eight run fourth inning, was fueled by just three hits. Four free passes, a hit batsman, and an error, was Linwood’s downfall.

LeBlanc had the key hit, plating two Huskie runners. On the mound for Gorham, Huskies’ Brandon Sanschagrin, Cody Gauthier, and freshman Brian Veazey, combined to limit Linwood to three hits. The trio were very efficient, setting down 12 of the 15 Lumberjack outs by strike outs. The win pushed Gorham to 5-0 on the spring. The Huskies have a tough schedule in the coming week. Gorham will resume their cross-town battle with the very good Berlin Mountaineer squad on Monday. Tuesday and Wednesday Gorham hosts Littleton and Woodsville, and on Thursday, the Huskies travel to take on undefeated Colebrook on Thursday.

ited attendance. The team proposed a number of parks, gardens, and pedestrian walks along the new alignment. At one spot on Third Avenue, the team identified a potential site for retail or commercial property. Taylor noted the DOT calls for 8-foot sidewalk, 6-foot grassy area, 4-foot shoulders along with two 12-foot travel lanes on the section of the route near First Avenue. The team is recommending 6-foot sidewalks and 8-foot grassy areas on the entire half mile section except for the section west of Monreau Movers where there is not room for plantings. One suggestion of the team is to relocate one of the homes being purchased by the state onto a new site. Chris Nadeau of Nobis Engineering said it is a way to bring some of the historic fabric of the neighborhood to the new alignment. An area of concern raised during the tour is the new entry onto Hillside Avenue, which will be controlled by a stop sign. Taylor said the movement of school buses on Hillside accentuated concerns. “Our concern is with a lot of traffic headed westbound on Route 110, it’s going to be difficult for a vehicle to come out and make a left-hand turn onto Route 110. …Similarly a vehicle that wants to come in 110 and go on to Hillside Avenue is going to have to cut across that outbound traffic,” Taylor said. He said they didn’t design a solution but are recommending DOT take a second look at the issue. Planning board member Ralph Collins said he was impressed with the work of the team. “I’m just loving the way this is going,” he said, after listening to the options presented Saturday. “I think it’s going to be a catalyst to other things,” he said.

State revenues fall nearly $30m below projections CONCORD — New Hampshire’s tax receipts for April are disappointing, but Gov. John Lynch said he has a plan to close a potential $47 million shortfall by the end of the fiscal year. The Democrat said Monday that New Hampshire will have a balanced budget on June 30 thanks to his aggressive management

of spending. Lynch’s budget adviser, John Beardmore, said April’s revenues were almost $30 million below projections. April’s receipts added to the $17 million the state is behind so far this year, bringing the total potential shortfall to $47 million. Beardmore said Lynch has pushed agencies to spend less

and expects to close the gap with less spending, a onetime accounting correction and unspent money in several accounts dedicated to specific purposes, such as making license plates. Republicans criticized Lynch, saying he should have cut spending more. “The governor had an opportunity to use respon-

sible and realistic revenue figures like the House budget used, but instead he chose to use numbers that were nearly $300 million higher to hide his greater spending,” said Republican State Committee Chairman Jack Kimball. New Hampshire’s total budget for the year is $5.8 billion. —Courtesy of WMUR
