3DAYFORECAST
BEVERLY HILLS, Calif. (NY Times) — Yvette Vickers’s first appearance on a big screen was a fleeting part in “Sunset Boulevard,” the 1950 classic about a former Hollywood star turned recluse living in a crumbling mansion with her butler. Eventually, the film’s story came to parallel Ms. Vickers’s own. What is presumed to be her body, mummified and severely decomposed, was found inside the Beverly Hills home where she had lived alone for years. Friends and neighbors, who had not heard from her since last summer, suspect she may have been dead almost a year. “The body had been there for a while, that’s all I can say,” said the Los Angeles County assistant chief coroner, Ed Winter. Although the body was found on April 27, the coroner’s office has yet to positively identify it, a task made difficult by the decomposition. By this week, neighbors had begun to talk publicly about Vickers’s death. “Everyone around here knew who she was,” said Susan Savage, the neighbor who found the body. “When I first moved here 20 years ago, she was much more active. She was one of the first Playboy Playmates. She was proud to be known for her beauty.”

that they remained committed to the Medicare proposal, put forward by Representative Paul Ryan of Wisconsin, which has drawn intense attacks from Democrats and liberal groups in recent weeks. But they chose not to proceed with legislation this year, effectively putting the issue off until after the next election.
The development came as Vice President Joseph R. Biden Jr. held a first negotiating session with members of both parties seeking a deal to raise the federal debt ceiling. Republicans are demanding spending cuts and other measures to restrain the budget deficit as the price of a deal.
Pakistani army chief warns U.S. on another raid
ISLAMABAD, Pakistan (NY Times) — The head of Pakistan’s army, Gen. Ashfaq Parvez Kayani, said Thursday that he would not tolerate a repeat of the American covert operation that killed Osama bin Laden, warning that any similar action would lead to a reconsideration of the relationship with the United States. In his first public reaction to the American raid early Monday that left many Pakistanis questioning the capacities of the nation’s army, General Kayani did not appear in person, choosing instead to convey his angry message through a statement by his press office and in a closed meeting with selected Pakistani reporters. The statement by the army’s press office said, “Any similar action violating the sovereignty of Pakistan will warrant a review on the level of military/intelligence cooperation with the United States.” General Kayani had decided that the number of American military personnel in Pakistan were to be reduced “to the minimum essential,” the statement said.
Dead or alive: House debates bill over naming access road BY TOM FAHEY THE UNION LEADER
CONCORD — A bill honoring former Manchester Mayor Raymond Wieczorek became caught up in a debate in the House Wednesday over whether public structures should be named after the living. Senate Bill 195 would name the yetto-open Manchester Airport Access Road after Wieczorek, the current District 4 executive councilor and former five-term mayor of the city. Rep. Steve Vaillancourt, R-Manchester, said he has nothing against Wieczorek, or anybody else, but he thought the legislature had a longstanding rule not to name any structure like a road or bridge or building after someone until the person had died. “We should not be naming anything after anybody who is still breathing,” Vaillancourt said. Others agreed with Vaillancourt, including Rep. Daniel Tamburello, R-Londonderry, who noted the House passed House Bill 603 earlier this session which forbids the naming of public works projects or natural formations after living elected, or formerly elected officials. Tamburello told the House that passing SB 195 would be contrary to the intent of HB 603. The bill is now in the Senate, he noted, but several other representatives noted it has not been passed. He tried to have the bill tabled, but was unsuccessful on a 150-
163 vote. Several Manchester representatives from both parties spoke in favor of the bill, including Democratic Rep. Ben Baroody, who noted for much of the time Wieczorek was mayor, he was chairman of the Manchester Democratic Committee. “I never ever called him and said ‘Can I come see you?’ that he didn’t say ‘Come right down,’” Baroody said, even when he sent him a letter calling for Wieczorek to resign. “In the twilight of his career, I’m asking you today to recognize a man who gave his life to public service,” Baroody said. Rep. Carlos Gonzalez, R-Manchester, said Wieczorek was instrumental in his election to the House and in his run for mayor of Manchester. “I’m here to witness to the kindness and the heart of this excellent gentlemen,” Gonzalez said. Rep. Will Infantine, R-Manchester, said the House does not currently have rules or laws that lawmakers have to wait until someone dies before something can be named after them. “I look at Ray Wieczorek as a statesman. I look forward to seeing the smile on his face the day he is acknowledged for his service. I have never seen someone smile from their grave,” Infantine said. The House passed the bill on a 201-111 vote. The bill now goes to the governor. Sen. David Boutin, R-Hooksett, was the prime sponsor of the bill, and said he was pleased with the vote.

I think it is imperative we all attend the next selectmen’s meeting To the editor: What next!? Microphones placed on our properties by the town of Gorham!? The Gorham Selectmen are about to enact a noise ordinance that is so sweeping and oppressive it will turn neighbor against neighbor. etc. Anyone will be allowed to call the police 24/7 if someone is making any noise per the first paragraph of the noise ordinance, which reads as follows. “It shall be unlawful for any person to make, continue, or cause to be made or continued any excessive, unnecessary loud noise or any noise which either annoys, disturbs, injures or endangers the comfort, repose, health, peace or safety of reasonable persons of normal sensitivity in the town of Gorham.” Basically, if you hear something that you do not like you can call the police 24/7!
Noting that, snow removal is exempt from the noise ordinance but “birds” have been added to it. Oh, and forget about working on your property in the evening. Again, what next, microphones placed on our properties? Hmm, if the ordinance does pass in it current sweeping and oppressive form I will be able call on Pike Industries for making noise during their manufacturing process, Hmm. Now, it is important for the people of Gorham to attend the next selectmen’s meeting Monday, May 9, and speak-up to protect their, our and everyone’s rights! Furthermore, if the majority does not attend the meeting then the minority will take the majorities’ rights away, guaranteed! Finally, this letter to the editor was written on a virtually noise free computer. Robert Balon Gorham
Our dinning experience was excellent To the editor: On April 22, the Friday before Easter, my wife and I went with my mother and step-father to Tea Birds for supper. This was the first time for all of us, other than my wife, eating inside the newly renovated restaurant. Our dining experience was excellent! The atmosphere and décor are a mix of elegant, homey, warm and welcoming. As soon as we walked in we were quickly greeted and brought
to a table. Michelle was our attentive server; both she and the other waitress named Sarah were very friendly. The complimentary homemade salsa and dip were wonderful while we waited for our meals. Our salads were served shortly as were the homemade breads and homemade butter. Our entrées came quick, were hot and the portions were plentiful. We all raved about our see EXCELLENT page 5

This Is Not What She Meant! It was such a simple idea. And the simple idea was meant to be expressed in simple ways, ways that were intended to be very personal and personally carried out. No. These simple ways were not meant to be left to some paid third party. These were to be personal acts of remembrance and gratitude: a handwritten note of heartfelt appreciation, a single white or red carnation, a perhaps too long left undone visit, or a home-cooked meal prepared with loving hands. Those were the simple gestures of love that Anna Jarvis had in mind when, on the 9th of May, in 1914, she saw her nine-year effort to have a day set aside for the honoring of mothers come to fruition with the signing into law of such a day of recognition by President Woodrow Wilson. How pleased and proud she must have been that day. A day set aside for the honoring of the nation’s mothers and the recognition of the invaluable work they did had been a longheld dream of Anna Jarvis’ civic-minded and ardent activist mother. And now, nine years after her mother’s death, Anna Jarvis’ untiring efforts to see her mother’s dream come to pass had finally succeeded. Mother’s Day was now a nationwide reality. But the simple day of remembrance and gratitude that Anna Jarvis had envisioned Mother’s Day to be all too soon became the victim of the excessiveness that characterizes us as a nation. And, of course, the world of commerce soon found ways to make money out of the day. The personal handwritten note of thankfulness became the mass-produced greeting card; the simple, single flower became the elaborate bouquet; and the home-cooked meal prepared by one’s own hands became the purchased Mother’s Day brunch or dinner prepared by profes-
sionals. This was not the Mother’s Day of which Anna Jarvis had dreamed. This crass commercialization of the day was not what she had meant the day to be. She donned the crusader’s mantle once again, once more devoting her time and now dwindling financial resources to restore Mother’s Day to the simple and personally carried out acts of remembrance and gratitude that had always been her vision. She denounced what she saw as the growing influences of the greeting card industry, the makers of candy, the florist industry, the restaurant businesses, and any others who made great profit from the special day she had so long labored to bring to pass. But in the struggle to take back her day, Anna Jarvis slowly went mad. She began to claim proprietary rights to Mother’s Day, demanding that nothing be done without her explicit approval. Her long, fruitless fight and the near frenzied efforts she put into it left Anna Jarvis a broken and penniless woman. In 1944, it became necessary to confine the now eightyyear old woman in a mental asylum, where she died four years later. And here is the irony of it all. The expenses of those final years of confinement of the now mentally unbalanced woman who had labored so long to bring about the nationwide honoring of the women who gave us birth and who usually played such an influential role our lives, only to see the day become something she had never meant nor wanted it to be, were paid for by a professional organization called “Floral Exchange.” (Ithaca Bound is the pen name of Dick Conway.

Thanks, Community Field/Central Park is a little prettier now To the editor: Community Field/Central Park is a little more prettier thanks to the efforts of the Kiwanis K-Kids and their adult leaders. On Sat., April 30, a group of community conscientious youth, with the help of the Kiwanis Club and BHS Key Club collected 19 bags of garbage from the park.
We are proud of these youth who took the initiative to select this community project and offer their services. Having a more attractive park is a benefit to all Berlin citizens so let’s all remember their hard work and keep the park clean Terry Letarte, Secretary Berlin Recreation & Parks

To highlight the presence of prescription pills around the state, Morency said the Drug Enforcement Administration collected two tons of pills during collections held throughout New Hampshire this weekend. Still, Morency said people don’t realize how dangerous the abuse of prescription drugs can be even though they’re considered medications. He added more needs to be done to discourage the abuse of prescription pills. Morency said he feels there needs to be more regulation on prescription pills. But drug offenses are more detrimental to communities than people think, said Morency. He added a lot of property crimes and thefts are often related to drug cases.

Maureen Ramsey of AVH’s Imaging Services Department was recently recognized by the New Hampshire Technical Institute (NHTI) for her dedication to the Radiologic Technology students. She was presented with an award for her efforts in remaining very active with the school to maintain its standards for clinical sites despite the challenges of the distance from here to the school (Concord) and the often inclement weather through which she would travel. Maureen makes every effort to participate in meetings and then implement program changes. She stayed involved with NHTI despite the lack of an assigned student over the course of several semesters. Maureen also invests a great deal of herself in teaching and assessing each student. AVH applauds Maureen’s efforts and congratulates her on this well-deserved recognition.
AMC evening programs for May Appalachian Mountain Club Pinkham Notch Visitor Center Saturday, May 7: The Weeks Act and the Creation of the White Mountain National Forest A century ago the White Mountain region looked considerably different. Most of the forest cover had been cut off in a short 25 year period. Well over a hundred thousand acres had been blackened by fires. Over 85,000 acres of forest burned in just 1903 alone. The scenic beauty was marred for summer visitors staying at the hotels and inns. Hiking trails were covered with thick slash from tree cutting. Sediment and silt from eroding hillsides harmed water supplies and
the fish that lived in the streams. Saw mills were running out of wood. The forest was cut over, burned over and something was needed to restore it. A native of Lancaster, NH by the name of John Wingate Weeks played a key role in protecting the White Mountains from further damage. As a Congressman from Massachusetts, Weeks sponsored what has been called “one of the most important forest conservation bills in US history” that is today called the Weeks Act. This law gave the federal government-for the first time--the resources to buy land for the purpose of protecting the headwaters see AMC page 14

BY JEAN LEBLANC THE BERLIN DAILY SUN
TILTON -- Berlin junior Megan Hood set down 17 Winnisquam batters on strike outs, leading the Mountaineers to a 7-0 victory over the Bears in Tilton recently. Hood struck out the first nine hitters for the Bears to begin the game. The hard throwing lefty carried a nohitter into the seventh, before surrendering a hit by the home team. “Megan has gotten better and better each time out on the field,” said Berlin head coach Jerry Poulin. “We kept Winnisquam in hot water all game long, scoring in almost every inning.”
The Berlin offense used seven walks by Bear pitcher Carolyn Hajdusek, to supplement their offense. Senior Marisa Lemoine contributed a triple and a single. Hood helped herself rapping out a pair of singles for two RBIs. The Berlin girls will try to seek some revenge in their next contest. Berlin hosts Kennett on Saturday.

Kennett’s Whitney Roberts hurls perfect game against Berlin, 3-0 BY JEAN LEBLANC THE BERLIN DAILY SUN
CONWAY -- Kennett pitcher Whitney Roberts silenced the Berlin bats, hurling a perfect game and defeating the Lady Mountaineers 3-0 in Conway recently. It was Berlin’s first loss of the season. The story of the game was Roberts. The Eagle pitcher and battery mate Katie Roberts set down 13 Mountaineers on strikes. Roberts was extremely accurate, not walking a Berlin hitter. That made a tough luck loser out of Berlin junior Megan Hood. The Mountie lefty kept Kennett off the board until the bottom of the sixth
inning. Two walks and a single loaded the bases. Eagle Sam Jones singled to knock in two runs and team mate Brie Roberts singled in a run to make it 3-0. That was all of the offense Kennett would need as Roberts changed speeds all game long to keep the Berlin bats quiet. Berlin will get another shot at Kennett. The Lady Mountaineers travel to Winnisquam, before facing the Eagles on Saturday.

Sanschagrin hurls Gorham past Crusaders BY JEAN LEBLANC THE BERLIN DAILY SUN
GORHAM -- Senior Brandon Sanschagrin allowed just one unearned run in five innings of work, helping his team to a 6-1 victory over the Littleton Crusaders in Gorham Tuesday. Littleton scored their only run of the game in the top of the first inning. A two base error and clean-up hitter Freddie Vasquez’s RBI single, gave the visitor’s a 1-0 lead. The home team Huskies responded with three runs of their own in the bottom of the first inning. Sanschagrin walked, and Pat Pike doubled. Doug Willey worked his at bat for a free pass. A wild pitch got Sanschagrin home, with Pike and Willey moving up into scoring position. That allowed Gorham to have clean-up hitter Cody LeBlanc drop down a perfect suicide squeeze getting Pike to score. As the play went to first base to get LeBlanc, Willey never stopped running from second base and slid safely under the tag from the return throw to put Gorham on top 3-1. Sanschagrin settled in on the mound for Gorham and breezed through the
next four innings of work. In the bottom of the fourth, Gorham pushed across another three runs. Sophomore Stephan St. Germain earned a free pass and was pinch run for by Tyler Sanschagrin. After an out, Pike and Willey both walked to load the bases. LeBlanc blooped a single to right field for an RBI. Pike scored on a Jake St. Hilare fielder’s choice and Willey touched home on a John Chabot RBI hit to make it 6-1. Gorham went to junior lefty Cody Gauthier to come in and close things out in the final two innings. The crafty Gauthier had Littleton batters baffled setting down four of his six outs via the strike out. Gorham upped its record to 6-1 on the spring and looks to close out the week against Woodsville and undefeated Colebrook. LHS 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 1-5-3 GHS 3 0 0 3 0 0 X 6-10-2 Pitching: GHS- B.

It will be ‘All hands on Deck’ on Saturday at Riverside Speedway GROVETON -- The flood waters are receding, the track surface is once again visible, but the damage left behind is breath taking and costly to the quarter high banked speedway in Groveton. “We are making a plea to all our Riverside drivers, crews and fans,” said speedway president Jane LeBlanc. “The only way we can do this is with the help from our many Riverside family members to come to the speedway this Saturday. Brooms, rakes, shovels, tractors, anything that you can bring, to help us get ready for opening weekend on May 14, and 15, will
be greatly appreciated.” The worse flooding the area has ever seen has destroyed most of the standing fences. The entry way looks like no one has entered the facility in years with the concession stands, portable toilets, and picnic tables being piled on top of one another. The parking lot has numerous holes that need to be repaired, along with all of the roadways in and out of the race track. The pit area needs to have repairs made to both the parking and roadway surfaces. see RIVERSIDE page 12

Now to see the track the way it is, is tough to take. I know we can be ready for opening weekend, just because of how much people care.

Parent binders available to help parents with manage early child development information BERLIN/GORHAM -- The Coos Watch Me Grow project was formed in 2008 to improve the future of children in Coos County by helping parents understand the process of normal child development. In recognition of Children’s Mental Health Day – May 6, to promote successful early childhood development, the Coos Watch Me Grow Steering Committee, with support from the Infant Mental Health Teams in Berlin/Gorham and the Upper Connecticut Valley, has created parent binders to help parents keep track of the important information related to their child’s development. These binders contain developmental benchmark information as well as tabs for collecting results from IEP’s, immunizations, the Ages and Stages screenings and other important information related to their child’s development. The binders will help parents keep all this important information in one place and parents will be encouraged to bring these binders to their appointments with schools, childcare centers, medical centers etc. so that they can share the necessary information with the professionals caring for their child. The binders were created to encourage parents to own and manage this information to get the best and most timely care for their developing child.
Parents binders will be available free of charge to families with children aged 0-6 who are participating in programs at the Family Resource Center, Northern Human Services, Child and Family Services (Colebrook), Weeks Medical Center (Bright Beginnings), and Family Centered Early Supports and Services. The Watch Me Grow Steering Committee hopes to have binders available for families at childcare centers in Coos in the next year. The Coos Watch Me Grow Project is part of a larger statewide effort to create a coordinated system for developmental screening and referral process for children aged 0-6. This system will help parents understand normal stages of childhood development and also help identify, at an early age, children who may have possible developmental delays in motor skills, speech, vision, hearing and social/behavioral interactions. Research has demonstrated that when developmental delays are identified early and children can receive treatment, there is a significant improvement in the long term outlook for the future of that child and a reduction in the amount of costly services needed. Partners in Coos Watch Me Grow include: Tri-

of navigable rivers. During the past century, 41 national forests were created containing 20 million acres in 24 eastern states. Without the Weeks Act, we would not have the 800,000 acre White Mountain National Forest today. Join Forest Historian David Govatski for a photo presentation celebrating the legacy of the Weeks Act a hundred years after its passage. This program is in celebration of the Weeks Act Centennial, for more information www.weekslegacy.org. Saturday, May 14: It’s Not About the Hike. This presentation highlights the journey of two 50+ year old nonhikers who one day decided to climb the 67 mountains in New England over 4,000 feet. Nancy Sporborg and Pat Piper are two ordinary women who went on an extraordinary jour-
ney over the mountain summits and into their hearts. This is the story of what they found inside themselves as they hiked over 1,000 miles to the tops of over 170 mountains through all four seasons. This presentation is for everyone -- hikers and non-hikers, people who are sedentary or active, outdoor enthusiasts and indoor home bodies, 10 year olds and 90 year olds and everyone in between. It is both humorous and touching, as the speakers share from their hearts about their personal lives in a way that makes the message and learning universal. Saturday, May 21: Bluebirds. Join Dave Eastman of Country Ecology for a slide presentation and discussion on the bluebird. Dave will include the natural history and behavior as well as how to attract this beloved bird to see AMC page 22

Gill’s Flower Shop
It all started in the late 1800s when the first Thomas Gill arrived in Canada as a young man and travelled to Massachusetts to study the plant growing business. Eventually, he came north, bought out the Smith Greenhouse and that's how we began. We are now 111 years old and the store is operated by third and fourth generation! For years, Gills grew its own flowers and plants, but as years passed the energy crunch made growing prof-
itably impossible. Now we buy in all our products. Gills carries all your floral and plant needs. Over the years we have added silks, stuffed animals, balloons and handmade chocolates. Most recently, we have become the place to drop off and pick up your cleaning. It has brought different cliental to our store whom we are happy to serve. Gills is your "Friendly Flower Store" located at 164 Main Street, Suite 1.

For All That You Have Given Me
Grandmothers Are Mothers Who Are Grand Grandmothers are mothers who are grand, Restoring the sense that our most precious things
For all that you have given me, I can return but love. For you Bound up the wounds I did not see And gave me hopes and passions new. I can return but love for you, Whose unmoved faith my heart did move, And gave me hopes and passions new, And loved me till I turned to love.
Are those that do not change much over time. No love of childhood is more sublime, Demanding little, giving on demand, More inclined than most to grant the wings On which we fly off to enchanted lands.
Whose unmoved faith did my heart move? The mother of my heart, not blood, Who loved me till I turned to love. And I became the soul I would.
Though grandmothers must serve as second mothers, Helping out with young and restless hearts, Each has all the patience wisdom brings,
The mother of my heart, not blood, Bound up the wounds I did not see. And I became the soul I would For all that you have given me.
Remembering our passions more than others, Soothing us with old and well-honed arts.

Thank You for the Gift of Understanding
How Much You Mean to Me How can you know how much you mean to me? After all the heartache, there is love. Pierce life, and you are where the angels move, Praising with their joy the mystery. You know well the cost of sacrifice, Mothering the wounded as you bleed, Opening your anguish to their need, Taking heed of neither pain nor price. How you have paid, dear soul, for that abandon! Even as you’ve sunk into despair. Reason has no reason to be there ‘Ere love supply the grace, well-earned or wanton. So let me show you how you look from here, Depicted as an icon dearly treasured, An image of an ecstasy unmeasured, Yearning with more need than it can bear.

Thank you for the gift of understanding How deep within the heart one’s love can go.

Policies examined after man escapes state hospital third time
CONCORD — Law enforcement officials are examining their policies after a man with a history of violence and escape was granted a furlough from the state hospital and disappeared. Lawrence Eldridge, 48, was last seen Saturday after he was granted a furlough from the state hospital, where he was civilly committed in 2010. Officials said he has walked away from the hospital three times. Notice of Certain Transaction Pursuant to New Hampshire Pecuniary Benefit Law, RSA 7-19a Androscoggin Valley Hospital hereby gives notice of a pecuniary benefit transaction involving a member of its Board of Directors as follows: Androscoggin Valley Hospital plans to hold its annual employee recognition dinner on May 12, 2011, at the Town & Country Motor Inn, which is part-owned by Director Randall Labnon. The dollar amount of this transaction is estimated to be $7,000.
Officials at the hospital wouldn’t talk about Eldridge’s case, but they said patient privileges are based on clinical assessments, and past behavior is considered but isn’t the overriding factor. Eldridge’s ex-wife, Kelly Carroll, said she fears for her safety while Eldridge’s whereabouts are unknown. “He’s unsafe to be out,” she said. “It’s a hazard to me, my children, my parents, the public.” “That’s the jumping-off point, the starting point for all of us to get together and take a really good look, and from our view at state police, we are going to take a really good look at why is this happening,” Conte said. —Courtesy of WMUR

Franklin Ramsey
––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– OBITUARY –––––––––––––––––––––––––––––
BERLIN -- Mr. Franklin “Frank” Ramsey, 70, of 454 Forbush Ave., Berlin, NH, passed away on Wednesday May 4, 2011 at the Androscoggin Valley Hospital after a courageous battle of declining health. He was born in Berlin on October 22, 1940, the son of the late Arthur and Rose Aimee (Taillon) Ramsey and was a lifelong resident. He graduated from Notre Dame High School in 1960 and served in the U. S. Army as a cook. He was later employed by the local paper mills for 42 years as a pipe fitter and, in the later years, as fire protection. His years in the mill were an enjoyment to him and he made many friends during this time. He took great pride in his job. Frank was also a call fireman for the city of Berlin. He married his loving wife, Doris (Baker) Ramsey, in 1968. He was a member of the Fraternal Order of Eagles, the Veterans of Foreign War and enjoyed hunting, walking, puzzles, snow machining, reading and being with his family. His loving personality, his sense of humor, and his courage brought such joy to his family. He was a very loving caretaker to his wife and children and his joy was the accomplishments of his children and grandchildren. Frank is survived by his loving wife of 42 years, Doris (Baker) Ramsey of Berlin, NH: daughter, Christine Lemoine of Berlin, NH; son, Frank Ramsey and wife Kellie of Gorham, NH; son, Steven Ramsey and wife Amy of Milan, NH: loving grandchildren, Marisa and Michael Lemoine of Berlin, Brett Belanger of Gorham and an expected

DAILY CROSSWORD TRIBUNE MEDIA SERVICES

DILBERT
by Scott Adams
By Holiday Mathis SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Some things are best excluded from your life altogether because they are too difficult to control. Choose your passions carefully, and invite only the manageable ones into your life. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Others seek your opinion, not because they will allow themselves to be influenced by it, but because it will show them who you are. They will decide whether or not to trust you. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Exercise and study are not optional extras only for those who have time on their hands. These elements are essential to your happiness now -- as important as anything else you do to keep life running smoothly. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Your ancestors had to struggle for freedom, and sometimes you feel that the fight continues in you. It’s a different battlefield, but the battle is the same. This is your chance to be valiant. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You’ve been busy and focused on others. Carve out some time for taking care of yourself. Believe it or not, this is your main responsibility in life -- not one you should avoid for too long. TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (May 6). You’re not averse to competition. You realize that the big rewards go to those willing to take a risk. Your calm and confident ways will give you the edge. June is filled with romantic days and nights. Community service plays into your social life in July. New work comes in August. You share a special connection with Aries and Libra people. Your lucky numbers are: 10, 4, 22, 49 and 15.
Cul de Sac
ARIES (March 21-April 19). One thing becomes glaringly clear today. You no longer can continue in the old way. An unusual occurrence will stir up your system. You’ll change the plan because of what happens. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Your friends do what feels natural to them, which leads to actions that you may not understand at all. Whether they support or sink you, they feel they are doing the right thing. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You’ll be in a daring mood, leaning into a positive view of the future. Your plans will shape you. However, the present moment is all you’ll ever really have or need. CANCER (June 22-July 22). Struggling to make money is not your favorite way to spend the hours. On the other hand, you love to spend time and energy on a cause that helps others. Your work could go either way today, depending on how you look at it. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Your choices won’t please everyone, no matter what they are. Defending them may be a waste of time. Avoid the argument, and just know that as long as you do right by your own code, good will come of it. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You’ll be united in a common purpose, or at least in the general sense that such a thing does exist. There’s an energetic bond between you and the group. And though it’s invisible, you can feel it. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Wishes are like magic seeds. Don’t cast them to the wind to be carried far from you. You’ll never see them land that way. Focus on what’s close to you. Grow your happiness in your own yard.

MAN’S NEED FOR REASSURANCE IS DRIVING HIS WIFE AWAY
DEAR ABBY: My husband, “James,” constantly tells me he loves me, but I don’t think I love him. I’m sure most women would love having a man tell them he loves them all the time, but it drives me up a wall. If I walk into a room, James says he loves me. If I leave the room, he says it again. The words have lost their meaning for me, but if I don’t respond in kind, James thinks I’m mad at him. I am emotionally exhausted from having to constantly reassure him. If I try to discuss anything serious, he cries, and that just turns my stomach. I’m not an uncaring, unfeeling person. I’m very emotional, but when a man cries it makes me uncomfortable. Please don’t suggest counseling. James is a pastor who would want to go to a Christian counselor. That makes me uneasy because he knows all the ones around here. We don’t have much money and no insurance. If I ask for a divorce, it will end his career. Divorce is not an option for many people, but I don’t want to wake up one morning and realize I have lived my entire life putting myself second. Abby, when is it OK to say this isn’t working? -- MISERABLE IN THE MIDWEST DEAR MISERABLE: Say it now, while there may still be a chance to save your marriage. It is crucial that you find the money you need for nondenominational couples therapy with a licensed professional. Your husband needs to overcome insecurities that may stem from the fact that he feels you becoming increasingly distant, or that may have originated in his youth. And you need to control the impulse to shut down when your husband expresses emotions that make you uncomfortable. Everyone has strengths and weaknesses. Understanding and accepting what the weaknesses are can be powerful tools
in overcoming each other’s shortcomings. Whether your marriage can be resuscitated (or not) will depend upon whether the two of you are capable of working this through. I wish you luck, because of how much each of you has to lose if it fails. DEAR ABBY: A woman with whom I have become good friends over the past year lost a son 10 years ago, and is estranged from her adult daughter. I would like to acknowledge her in some way on Mother’s Day because I don’t think her daughter will. Would it be appropriate to send her a card and/or flowers? -- KATHY IN WISCONSIN DEAR KATHY: Unless your friend is an older mentor, I would refrain from sending a card with a Mother’s Day motif. But a card telling her you’re thinking of her -- or what a valued friend she is -- might be nice. Or a phone call. Ditto with the flowers. DEAR ABBY: I am an over-50 “cougar” who has a boyfriend who’s not happy with my looks. He loves all the other aspects of our relationship, but he wants me thinner and prettier. I’ll never look 30 again. What do you think I should do? -- BARB IN RENO DEAR BARB: Change boyfriends. If yours doesn’t like you the way you are, face it -- your romance is on the downhill slide. Of course you’ll never look 30 again. But what’s important is how you feel about yourself. My answer might be different had you said YOU wanted to be thinner because YOU thought it would make you more attractive. Please give this some serious thought while you still have a healthy level of self-esteem -- because the longer you’re with this man, the more it will be eroded.
