Numerous warnings issued for trash

GORHAM — The Gorham Police were kept busy last week issuing written warnings to those violating the town’s Wild Animal Ordinance. The ordinance, which is designed to deter nuisance wild animals, especially bears, sets standards by which the town’s residents and businesses must store their trash. It also limits how early they can put their trash at the curb for municipal pick up. According to the language in the ordinance, trash must be stored one of three ways — in a building house or garage inaccessible to wildlife, in a wildlife resistant container (like a locking dumpster), or a container placed in a wildlife resistant enclosure. The rules also prohibit residents from putting their trash out for curb-side pickup prior to 5 a.m. on the day that pickup is scheduled. After complaints from neighbors and the public works department, the Gorham Police issued close to 20 written warnings for violations of the ordinance over the past week. Fifteen warnings were issued on Wednesday alone, with the majority of them going to homes and businesses on North Main Street and Cascade Flats. Violating the ordinance carries a maximum fine of $100, though in first offense cases a civil forfeiture of $25 would clear the violation.

Home Improvement - Berlin style BY BARBARA TETREAULT THE BERLIN DAILY SUN

These Teen Center teens are working hard to raise money to save the Teen Center, a Tri County CAP program that has lost its funding in this budget-cutting year and will close this Friday. A Duke concert at the Northern Forest Heritage Park Sunday at 5:30 p.m. will be the first fundraiser for the cause. These students have many more projects planned to help their Teen Center, which, since 2009, has met at St. Barnabas Church at the corner of High and Main. The students here include Adam Pelkey, Joshua Halley, Christian Judson, Leah Dion, Abby Bates, Shantel Gallagher, Tempest Gagnon, and Alyssa Cantu. Missing from the picture are Alan Laflamme and Dakota Montminy. (GAIL SCOTT PHOTO)

BERLIN -- Volunteers were at work at 7 a.m. yesterday at the home of Genie and Chad Tardif as part of what has become an annual tradition. Each year to mark June as National Homeownership Month, the local USDA Rural Develoment office and Tri-County Community Action Program collaborate on a local home improvement project with a host of volunteers. This year the selected recipient was a young family. Two years ago, the Tardifs purchased a two bedroom home at 377 Western Avenue with a loan from USDA/Rural development. With a second child that arrived this month, the Tardifs this spring returned to Rural Development for a repair loan to create a third bedroom within the house. “I saw a greater need than just additional space. The house needed energy efficiency upgrades and I thought it would be wise to weatherize and insulate the home,” said Janice Gingras, Rural Development Specialist here in Berlin. With money from CAP’s weatherization program, Home Preservation Home Grant, and economic stimulus funds, plus the home repair loan, the Tardifs were able to get over $13,000 of work done on their house. The Tardifs had an energy audit, five new windows installed, a new hot water tank, and

necessary insulation. Drainage issues were repaired to reduce mold the basement. The volunteer workers yesterday worked on the drainage, cleaned debris, stained the deck, painted the front and back breezeways, installed fire-rated sheetrock in the garage, did some wiring, mowed the lawn, planted a vegetable garden, and did some general landscaping. “We weren’t expecting this at all. This is awesome,” said Chad Tardif. The couple have a two week old daughter, Maizy, and a two and half year old son, Jonah. Tardif said he works at St. Vincent de Paul nursing home and for UPS. A brief cermony was held yesterday afternoon to recognize the many contributors and volunteers. On hand was Molly Lambert, state Director of USDA Rural Development, City Manager Patrick MacQueen, City Ward I Councilor Russell Otis, and representatives of the state’s Congressional delegation. Recognized for donations were Sherwin Williams, McCosh Light Trucking, Home Depot, and Peter Bilodeau. Volunteers included Kathy McCosh, Peter Bilodeau, Steve Dumesnil, Rodney Bouchard, Brandon Roy, and Jeff Hodgon from CAP and Robert McDonald, Lambert, Brian Ritchie, Bev Mason, Anne Getchell, Tracy Rexford, Heather Brewer of Rural Development; Cimbria Badenhausen of Better Buildings, and Jessica O’Meara of HUD.

ELKMONT, Tenn. — Lynn Faust remembers the old days of firefly season here. You would hike into the woods at night, with nobody else around, waiting for one of nature’s strangest and most beautiful rituals. Then the fireflies would emerge, thousands and thousands of them, and under the moonlight they would all flash in unison. On. Off. On. Off. “It’s as though they wear little watches,” said Ms. Faust, 56, a biologist and naturalist who has studied fireflies for decades. “It’s awe-inspiring, it’s beautiful, it’s rhythmic and it’s bright. You’re surrounded by the fireflies.” These days, you are also surrounded by the tourists. The secret is out about this marvelously rare and very brief annual spectacle. About a thousand tourists a night come to Elkmont, a small trailhead in Great Smoky Mountains National Park, during the two weeks each June when the country’s largest population of synchronous fireflies puts on what locals call “the light show.” Reactions tend toward the spiritual, and people wander out of the woods with the quiet, dazed look of those who have seen aurora borealis or a solar eclipse, or spent an hour getting massaged at Sedona. “It’s mind-blowing, like a silent symphony,” said Daniel Carlson, 47, an engineer from Raleigh, N.C.

Weiner quits House seat over ‘mistakes’ ––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– WORLD/NATION–––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––

(NY Times) — Representative Anthony D. Weiner, a high-profile New York Democrat who had been considered a leading candidate to be the city’s next mayor, said Thursday that he was resigning from Congress following revelations of lewd online exchanges with several women. “I’m here to apologize for the personal mistakes I have made and the embarrass-

ment that I have caused,” Mr. Weiner said, adding that he had hoped to be able to continue serving his constituents. “Unfortunately,” he said, “the distraction I created has made that impossible.” Mr. Weiner announced his resignation in Sheepshead Bay, Brooklyn, at a senior center where he announced his first campaign for City Council in 1991. But while

that moment was filled with promise and excitement, his resignation occurred in a raucous and circuslike atmosphere, punctuated by shouting from a group of hecklers. Mr. Weiner tried to deliver his brief statement in a restrained manner, but struggled to be heard above the din of the hecklers, some of whom shouted vulgarities and one of whom called him a “pervert.”

Bin Laden’s No. 2, Zawahri, White House defends U.S. role in Libya operation takes control of Al Qaeda (NY Times) — More than six weeks after American commandos found and killed Osama bin Laden in a Pakistan hideout, his second-incommand in Al Qaeda is officially replacing him, according to a statement it posted online Thursday. Ayman al-Zawahri, an Egyptian who long served as No. 2 to Bin Laden, had been expected to inherit leadership of Al Qaeda, though the delay in announcing his succession led some counterterrorism analysts to see signs of a power struggle at the top following Bin Laden’s death in Abbottabad, Pakistan, on May 2.

SAYWHAT...

“

The average tourist wants to go to places where there are no tourists.” —Sam Ewing

“The general command of Al Qaeda, after the completion of consultation, announces that Sheikh Ayman al-Zawahri has assumed the responsibility of the leadership of the group,” Al Qaeda said in a statement presented by the Al Fajr Media Center, the group’s online voice, and posted on jihadist Internet forums. The statement did not provide details about the group’s decision, falling back on generalities. “We seek with the aid of God to call for the religion of truth and incite the ummah to prepare and fight,” the statement read, referring to the global community of Muslims.

WASHINGTON (NY Times) — The White House, pushing hard against criticism in Congress over the deepening air war in Libya, asserted Wednesday that President Obama had the authority to continue the military campaign without Congressional approval because American involvement fell short of full-blown hostilities. In a 38-page report sent to lawmakers describing and defending the NATO-led operation, the White House said the mission was prying loose Col. Muammar el-Qaddafi’s grip on power. In contending that the limited American role did not oblige the administration to ask for authorization under the War Powers Resolution, the report asserted that “U.S. operations do not involve sustained fighting or active exchanges of fire with hostile forces, nor do they involve U.S. ground troops.” Still, the White House acknowledged, the operation has cost the Pentagon $716 million in its first two months and will have cost $1.1 billion by September at the current scale of operations.

Boston Bruins return home with Stanley Cup BOSTON — The Stanley Cup weighs nearly 35 pounds, but Boston Bruins captain Zdeno Chara hoisted it over his head Thursday like it weighed nothing. Chara was the first to lift the Cup after the Bruins’ decisive 4-0 victory in Vancouver over the Canucks in Game 7 of the championship series Wednesday. He raised it to the sky again when he was the last player off the team’s plane following a noisy overnight flight that landed at Logan International Airport at about 8:30 a.m. Thursday. Then he lifted and shook it one more time when the team got off the bus in front of TD Garden minutes later. “We are pretty OK with that weight,” the 6-foot-9 Chara said before walking over to some of the roughly 500 fans who had gathered outside the team’s home rink, allowing them to touch the coveted trophy that hasn’t been in Bruins hands in 39 years. “We are all very honored to be winners,” he said. Team President Cam Neely, one of the team’s all-time great players and a Vancouver native, was one of the first off the bus, followed seconds later by grinning coach Claude Julien, rarely seen with a smile, pumping his fist. The tired but smiling team, some

wearing their white championship hats and still sporting their playoff beards, filtered off to the cheers of adoring fans. “We got it done, we brought it back to Boston and this is where it belongs,” Julien said. The city plans a parade for the Bruins on Saturday morning. It will be the city’s seventh championship parade in the past decade, following championship celebrations for the Patriots, Red Sox and Celtics. Goalie Tim Thomas, the Conn Smythe Trophy winner as the finals MVP, said the team’s accomplishment hasn’t quite sunk in. “When you get here and see the fans, it begins to sink in a little bit,” he said. “We won the Stanley Cup last night but in a part of my mind I still can’t believe it. ... It’s very hard to get your mind around it.” Brad Marchand, who scored two goals in the clincher, said the Bruins went to Vancouver not knowing what would happen and returned as the best team in the world. The Bruins lost the first two games of the series held in Vancouver, as well as Game 5 there, but held serve at home, setting up the winner-take-all seventh game. —Courtesy of WMUR

Autopsy complete on Concord couple in murder-suicide CONCORD — The New Hampshire Attorney General’s Office is confirming that a Concord man shot and killed his wife before killing himself. Investigators said Thursday that autopsies showed that 22-year-old Matthew Balch died of a single, selfinflicted gunshot wound to the neck. His 25-year-old wife, Sarah, died of a single gunshot wound to the head.

Sarah Balch’s death was ruled a homicide, and investigators said her husband killed her with a rifle before turning the gun on himself. Matthew Balch’s mother called 911 Tuesday morning to say her son was in the driveway with a gun to his head and that he had shot his wife. The couple had three young children. —Courtesy of WMUR

Remembering A Hero, George Ramsey To the editor: Born October 31, 1924 was George Ramsey, or as I like to call him a face de nanane “candy face”, a life time resident of Berlin, New Hampshire. Nineteen years later he was drafted into the army and seventy years later when I was born, he became my Godfather. George Ramsey, served heroically in World War II, and over the years he spoke proudly of his service abroad in Italy and Africa. He was first assigned to North Africa to help fight for his country. While he was there, he came down with malaria. After recovering from malaria he was assigned to the 34th division, 5th army, “the red bull,” to fight in Italy against the Germans. The Italians would bring water and food every night for the soldiers. These men were called mullucks. One night when they did not show up, George volunteered to go with three other men to discover what had happened. They found the Italians, but a mortar had hit one. George, at age 19, held the wounded Italian man, as he took his last breath. Other war stories George had shared included comrades who did not make it and his own injuries, which almost took his life. The battles he fought for America were important and brought him back a bronze star and a Purple Heart, two very honorable war medals. But to me he always was a hero,

not because of the awards he received but because he was the kindest, most hard working man with a genuine love for everyone. He was my first caregiver, besides my parents and he spent many hours on the floor playing with me, helping me build skyscrapers, and then taking me outdoors for rides on the tractor. His time fighting on the battlefields had taught him to value each moment and make the most of them. He is a hero not only because of his war service, but because he was able to integrate what he leaned of life on the battlefield into his day to day relations with people. George loved people and making them happy. He did this by his good humor and his respect for all who he met. Although George died at the age of eighty-six, just one month ago, I will always remember the smile on his face when he greeted me with a big warm hug, and his contagious laughter. George was the hardest worker I knew and never complained about the pain and limitation that had been placed on him, but he always congratulated others on what a “super job” they did. So I would like to take the time now to say, George you did a super job and I will truly miss you. George has inspired me to carry on his kindness and live to bring laughter to others.

Thursday. 16 June 2011. I am sitting here in front of my computer shaking my head. I can’t believe that I am actually writing this. Me, of all people. My wife will not believe it, either, when she reads it. Him, of all people. He doesn’t even like the game. Never watches it. Our sons and I had to drag him to the one game he did see. We were living in East Longmeadow, Massachusetts, at the time, and we had to talk ourselves blue to get him to go. It was a Hartford Whalers game. Gordie Howe was playing for them then. Dick just shrugged his shoulders when it was over. True. All of the above is true. I am not a hockey fan. I am not much of a sports fan. Baseball is about the only game I follow with any degree of passion. Even that is hardly what one would call “white hot.” I do not wear anything with a team logo on it. I haven’t been to a sporting event of any kind in years. Haven’t any desire to go. I can read about it in the papers, if I’m interested. And it’s not so much that the Boston Bruins won their first Stanley Cup in thirty-nine years that has me sitting here pecking away at my computer keyboard, trying to write something intelligent about a game about which I know next to nothing. No, it’s the fact that the Bruins’ 37-year old goalie, Tim Thomas, was named the series’ Most Valuable Player and carried off the handsome trophy that goes with the honor that moves me to make comment. A Hollywood script writer would be hard put to come up with a better screenplay than the story of Tim Thomas. From what I understand, Thomas had to labor long in places like Finland and Sweden before getting a chance to play in the National Hockey League at the age of 31. His no-style, almost gorilla-in-a-china-shop

way of playing turned off many, it would seem. But in a game where split-second decisions and reactions have to be made, his way worked for him, and finally his chance to silence his detractors came. And silence them he did. In short, from what I have read, Tim Thomas had one of the greatest seasons of goal-tending that any player has ever had. Whether or not one likes the game itself, one has to admire and respect such an accomplishment. And I do. I think of others who were not expected to attain the heights that they have attained. The Patriots did not choose quarterback Tom Brady until the sixth round of the 2000 draft. He was not even the starting quarterback for his college team, Michigan, when he was drafted. But once he stepped onto a field, it didn’t take Brady long to show the league’s personnel directors and head coaches that they had made a serious mistake in passing him over until the sixth round. Three Super Bowl victories, two Super Bowl MVP awards, and two league Most Valuable Player awards later, Tom Brady ranks among the greatest quarterbacks who have ever played the game. The football Hall of Fame awaits him when his playing days are over. And how many baseball scouts expected the Boston Red Sox’ Dustin Pedroia to become the American League’s Most Valuable Player in his second year of major league play, or Rookie of the Year the year before, or the winner of a Gold Glove award? His size alone must have left many debating whether to sign him to a contract. But some must have noted the fire in the man’s belly, the burning desire to excel, and decided to take a chance. Pedroia’s play has rewarded them – and the Boston Red Sox many times over. Sometimes, all someone needs is a chance.

Berlin Kiwanis Club bike safety rodeo was a resounding success To the editor: I would like to thank the Berlin Kiwanis club (and all other contributors involved) for sponsoring “Kiwanis Family Safety Day Rodeo” on Saturday, June 11, at the Berlin Recreation Department.

The American Cancer Society combines an unyielding passion with nearly a century of experience to save lives and end suffering from cancer. As a global grassroots force of more than three million volunteers, we fight for every birthday threatened by every cancer in every community. We save lives by helping people stay well by preventing cancer or detecting it early; helping people get well by being there for them during and after a cancer diagnosis; by finding cures through investment in groundbreaking discovery; and by fighting back by rallying lawmakers to pass laws to defeat cancer and by rallying communities worldwide to join the fight. As the nation’s largest non-governmental investor in cancer research, contributing more than $3.5 billion, we turn what we know about cancer into what we do. As a result, about 11 million people in America who have had cancer and countless more who have avoided it will be celebrating birthdays this year. To learn more about us or to get help, call us any time, day or night, at 1-800-227-2345 or visit cancer. org.

Artwork by Lawrence Richards on display at AVH BERLIN -- The Androscoggin Valley Hospital Auxiliary has announced that an outstanding art exhibit by noted artist Lawrence Richards, is currently on display at AVH, as part of the ongoing Rotating Art Program. For over 50 years, Mr. Richards has been involved in the planning, designing, and construction of more than 3,000 buildings in Northern New England including a residence for Johns Hopkins University’s President. His involvement in commercial and industrial projects included the Holy Family Church, Edward Fenn School, Whitefield Housing Development, the Town and Country Motor Inn, Attitash Ski Resort, Berlin High School and Liberty Garden 120-unit Housing. Lawrence graduated from high school in Berlin. Under the G.I. Bill of Rights, he learned cabinet making and carpentry. In 1994, he took interest in a new hobby. He became a selftaught sculptor working with many materials that he was familiar with during the years he spent in construction. Since that time, he has sculptured more that 2,000 works that included a variety of art from carvings on gold balls to a 7-foot tall lumberjack for the Northern Forest Heritage Park and Museum. His works can be found on display throughout the Berlin area and in

other parts of our country including Florida, Washington, D.C., and the New England area. His work is unique and is an excellent representation of the artist’s or subject’s emotions. A fine example of this is his memorial of 9/11. It is hard to view this piece and walk away without feeling deep emotions for the victims and for the people who tried to help. “I have given away more than 1,850 sculptures to museums, art galleries, schools, colleges, libraries, churches, municipalities, hospitals, non-profit organizations and friends,” said Richards. Lawrence also invites people to visit his home studio and gallery. There are over 125 sculptures and paintings that are on display there including memorial of 9/11. Those who wish to view these items in his home are asked to make an advanced appointment by calling 603-752-4737. These outstanding works by Lawrence Richards will be on display during the month of June 2011. Each month, the AVH Auxiliary Rotating Art Program features an artist and his/her respective works for public viewing inside AVH. The display is located in the cafeteria, giving guests an opportunity to enjoy a meal while admiring the artwork. Works of art can be donated in

CCFHS recognizes volunteers BERLIN -- Since July of 2010, over 1900 hours, worth nearly $34,000, have been contributed by fifty individuals through Coos County Family Health Service (CCFHS) board service, RSVP, church organizations, school programs or on their own initiative to various CCFHS programs. CCFHS is a community-based organization providing innovative, personalized, comprehensive health care to people of all ages, regardless of economic status. Services include wellchild visits, medication assistance, diagnosis and treatment of acute and chronic illnesses, preventive services, cancer screening, health education, assessment of need for social and nutrition services, and appropriate referrals to health and behavioral health specialty providers. Kathy Baublis, a volunteer with management experience, has streamlined the recruitment process to integrate the resources and perspectives that volunteers bring to CCFHS. This process includes providing job descriptions, training, evaluation, and celebration. “Volunteers enrich the experience a patient or client has at CCFHS and improve the working conditions of many employees,” said Baublis. “They also augment the work of CCFHS employees, expand the reach, and improve the CCFHS public presence

in the community.” Joel Fortier, CCFHS building manager, last month had students from the Gorham school assisting with lawn maintenance and winter clean up. “I had forgotten how hard-working and fun these kids can be,” he said. Kathleen Kelley, development director, praised Karen Snow “for her commitment to our agency and for her 623 hours of service.” Snow won praise for being the longest-running volunteer with the greatest number of donated hours. “Without people like Karen and Kathy, we could not continue to expand our reach at the Farmers Market or provide programs like Sylvia Evans Award Celebration,” Kelley said. CCFHS is a non-profit organization dependent on federal and state grants and more importantly, the contributions from individuals in our community to provide the Family Planning, Prenatal Care, STD Clinic Services, HIV Counseling and Testing, School-based Oral Health, Neuromotor Disabilities Clinics, WIC Nutritional Services, Infant Massage, and RESPONSE to Sexual and Domestic Violence. If you have any questions about the CCFHS volunteer program do not hesitate to call either Kathy Baublis or Kathleen Kelley at 752-3669 extension 4026.

Mr. Pizza in Gorham has new owners

BY GAIL SCOTT THE BERLIN DAILY SUN

GORHAM—Mr. Pizza in Gorham has new owners, but there will be no changes in the restaurant’s popular format. The new owners—Lou Anne and Jim Pelkey— have been the managers for the past two years and worked at Mr. Pizza long before that. “Jim started here as a dishwasher when he was in high school in 1993,” said Lou Anne in a recent interview. “I waited tables for ten years before we took over.” Lou Anne explained that previous owners and founders, Leonard and Carol Lacroix, let the Pelkeys know that they were ready to retire, after their 25 year ownership of the restaurant. The Lacroix offered them a two year lease with the option to buy as well as the option to withdraw, if the Pelkeys changed their minds any time during the two year trial. “They gave us training wheels,” Lou Anne said. “Now we’ve moved on.” After the trial period, the Pelkeys decided they wanted to continue and on May 20, they became the official owners. “We have big shoes to fill,” said Lou Anne. “It was a pleasure working with them and the Lacroix have given so much to the community.” There will be no changes at the restaurant, both Pelkeys said. They plan to maintain high standards of food preparation and service and their desire to work with the community. As example of their community contributions, Lou Anne mentioned the program, “Every child counts,” they sponsor at Ed Fenn. “It’s a math incentive program,” she said. “Each student has a monthly calendar and keeps track of things with their family. They are required to have X number of minutes of counting and at the end of the month, they get a coupon for free ice cream at Mr. Pizza. The program had amazing support from Ed Fenn teachers and parents. It’s a fun way to look at numbers.” Lou Anne said they were inspired to sponsor the program because they find that “kids can’t count the back change (when working at Mr. Pizza). In this business we see that math is necessary. We’re trying

Jim and Lou Anne Pelkey are happy to announce that they are now owners of Mr. Pizza in Gorham. They have been the managers for the past two years and worked at the restaurant for many years before that. Jim says the only reason he has a beard is because the Bruins are in the play offs. When the play offs are over, the beard goes. (GAIL SCOTT PHOTO)

to help youngsters make sense of numbers. Martha Sappington has been wonderful as a go between (from Ed Fenn) and keeping tally of each class.” Maintaining high standards at the restaurant comes first in their planning. Lou Anne noted that they have as many as 54 employees at the height of the summer season and, she said, “they are family.” “We look at the restaurant as our home and the staff is our family,” she said. The Pelkeys plan to

continue to work hard to make Mr. Pizza an attractive place for customers and to thereby protect their family of employees. They both have come to restaurant management with experience working elsewhere. Although Jim worked at Mr. Pizza while he was in high school, he went to the police academy and then worked at the state correctional facility, but he continued working side jobs for the Lacroix. In 2001 Lacroix asked him to be the manager at Mr. Pizza and Pelkey, in effect, came home and has been on the job ever since. Lou Anne remembers that as a little girl, she used to take orders (for meals) from her family and helped her mother make change for customers at a concession at the Lancaster Fair. She waited tables to pay her way through college. She earned a business degree from “Berlin Tech” and went on to manage “a few places—retail, offices, different jobs.” But she hated being stuck in an office. “I love being with people,” she said. So she returned to the restaurant business. She and Jim met at Mr. Pizza, married, and put their combined expertise together to manage and now to own the restaurant. “Going forward,” Lou Anne said, “we would like to get all the Gorham businesses together to do collaborative advertising.” She particularly mentions the snowmobiling community, hoping to let them know what’s available and helping with the trails. “In the winter, that’s a market we count on,” she said. She mentions being contacted by a group of 26 sledders who wanted to visit Gorham but weren’t clear about the rules of the road in the town, just because they didn’t know how to find out. She’d like to work with others to let that community get the information they need to make plans to visit Gorham. Reflecting on their work at the restaurant and looking to the future, Lou Anne said, “We have wonderful staff, and wonderful customers. We are so blessed. We want to keep our 54 employees working and to make sure that they are taken care of and that the customers are happy and I feel if we can do that, we have done what we are supposed to do.”

BERLIN -- Author Rob Huckins will be appearing at SaVoir Flare in Berlin on Thursday, June 23, to promote his new novel “American Dreamlan”, beginning at 1 p.m. “American Dreamland” tells the story of President George W. Bush’s impeachment and conviction near the end of his second term in office, when he is forced to return to a dismal and uncertain future in Crawford, Texas. Meanwhile, Bob Dylan, the subject of increasingly negative criticism as he grinds on with his Never Ending Tour, quits music altogether and begins a second career as a reclusive painter. The lives of these American icons merge together in ways both serendipitous and unusual, creating a story which shows how people find new life after the public shows them the door while realizing the emptiness of preconceived notions of not only others, but one’s own self. Huckins is a resident of Milford and teaches social studies at Hollis-Brookline High School, and will deliver the keynote address at the school’s graduation ceremony this year. He is currently writing a three-part series for The Keene Sentinel (Keene, NH)

BERLIN --Androscoggin Valley Hospital invites the public to its next Health Education Lecture titled, “Activities for Seniors and Master Athletes: Where’s the Pop-Up Timer?” The lecture, to be presented by Dr. Daniel F. O’Neill, MD, Ed.D. of the Alpine Clinic in Plymouth, NH, will be held in the newly renovated Gorham Town Hall auditorium at 6:0 p.m., Monday, June 20. Dr. O’Neill will discuss how with the aging of the Baby Boomer population, mature athletes represent the fastest growing sector of the athletic population. Recent media attention has brought issues regarding the aging athlete to the forefront, and orthopaedic clinicians should be aware of the issues facing these athletes when attempting to return to sport while having musculosketal issues. Whereas generations prior have forgone athletic activity with age due to injury, lack of interest or medical co-morbidities, the expectations of the contemporary aging population include maintenance of sports activities well into their sunset years. Accordingly, injury rates in this rapidly expanding population are on the rise. Increased recent interest in sport-related injury to mature athletes has resulted in much-needed evidence to guide the clinician in a field that historically has been anecdotally-based. A casebased format will be presented to cover topics related to injury prevention and return to sport after injury. Dr. O’Neill graduated from Medical School at the State University of New York at Stony Brook. After a general surgery internship at Mt. Sinai Medical Center in New York City, Dr. O’Neill returned to Stony Brook for his residency in Orthopaedic Surgery. Subsequently he accepted a Sports Medicine Fellowship at the Orthopaedic and Fracture Clinic of Eugene, Oregon. Upon completion of his medical training in 1988, he re-established his granite roots in New Hampshire. He founded the Plymouth Sports & Orthopaedic Clinic and subsequently directed the New Hampshire Knee Center until joining with Drs. Chen and MacArthur to start the Alpine Clinic in 2007.

Dr. O’Neill is a board-certified Orthopaedic surgeon, a member of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons, the American Orthopaedic Society for Sports Medicine and the New Hampshire Orthopaedic Society. In 2005, Dr. O’Neill completed a Doctorate in Sport Psychology at Boston University. His company, Coaching Dr. Daniel F. O’Neill, MD, Mental ExcelEd.D. lence, treats both athletes and physicians with interests in improving performance. Most recently, he has announced the opening of the Bio-Performance Lab at The Alpine Clinic. By combining his background in Sports Medicine and Sport Psychology, Dr. O’Neill has established a program that allows him to help prevent injuries and improve performance in addition to treating actual injuries. Dr. O’Neill is able to observe physiologic data (e.g. heart and respiratory rates, EEG, muscle tension, etc.) while having clients go through sport-specific visualization and psychological stresses, and then is able to provide concrete suggestions towards preparation for competition and improving performance. Concomitantly, he is establishing a baseline that, in the event the athlete sustains an injury, quantitative data will exist to advise the athlete and coaches regarding return to sport. Dr. O’Neill has had numerous articles published in both scholarly journals and mass publications. Present research interests include physical and psychological aspects of injury prevention, arthritis, operating room performance, and, of course, knee rehabilitation. His book, Knee Surgery: The Essential Guide to Total Knee Recovery was published by St. Martin’s Press in December 2008.

Weeks Act Centennial Festival to be held July 29 PINKHAM NOTCH—The Weeks Act, passed in 1911, is marking its 100th anniversary and the White Mountain National Forest along with several partner organizations is hosting a family-friendly festival on July 29, from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. at the base of the Mt. Washington Auto Road. This free, public event is part of a coordinated New Hampshire effort celebrating the Weeks Act Centennial. The Weeks Act made the creation of the National Forests east of the Mississippi River possible. This landmark piece of conservation legislation helped to create 41 National Forests in the Eastern United States, including the White Mountain National Forest. These valuable forests now provide clean water, wildlife habitat, recreation opportunities, forest products, and so much more. To commemorate this important anniversary, the Society for Protection of NH Forests, Appalachian Mountain Club, NH Department of Resources and Economic Development, Plymouth State University, Weeks State Park Association, Arts Alliance of Northern New Hampshire, the New Hampshire Timberland Owners Association, members of the Weeks family, and the White Mountain National Forest, have come together to celebrate the Weeks Act Centennial throughout the year. The Main Pavilion of the festival will highlight these partnerships in conservation, recreation, and a White Mountain Marketplace that showcases area services, products, and attractions. The Main Pavilion will also host the stage where entertainment will be ongoing throughout the day. Currently scheduled to perform: musician, Jeff Warner performing Lumber Camp Songs; amazingly tal-

ented fiddler, Patrick Ross; Marek Bennett and his band Big Paws; very popular storyteller and comedian Rebecca Rule; and historical interpreter Dick Fortin. The Forest and Family Experience Pavilion will have many hands-on, family-friendly activities, including hikeSafe instruction, Junior Ranger activities, a Mt. Washington Weather observatory demonstration, a US Forest Service soil investigation pit, and water, pond and stream discovery. The NH Division of Forests and Lands will have a wildfire truck display and there will be a wildland fire obstacle course for children of all ages to enjoy. There are also several walk thru educational trucks scheduled to be on display including the “Way of the Woods” a mobile forest heritage museum and “Watershed on Wheels” – a hands on interactive display. You will find forestry demonstrations from past and present, watch craftsmen create their wares from wood, and learn about all that the forests have to offer at the Woodlands Pavilion. Some of the demonstrations scheduled include: Old Tools of the Trade; A Cross Cut Competition with the UNH Woodsmen; Trail Building and Maintenance; What is Intarsia, Wood and Art, The Art of Basket Making; a Wood Turner and Wood Carver/Doll Maker. You will also be able to learn how to build a bird house from expert woodworkers! Food and refreshments will be available all day long under the Festival Food Pavilion. Additional information about the Weeks Act Centennial Festival and a list of other events are available at www.weekslegacy.org and www.fs.fed. us/r9/white.

by Lynn Johnston

DILBERT

by Scott Adams

By Holiday Mathis SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). There have been times when you felt small and needy, like a child who requires constant care and attention. Because you’ve had that experience, you are compassionate with one who is going through such a stage now. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You express your love so effortlessly that it is difficult for you to imagine that others cannot do this. For whatever reason, it’s hard for some people to emote. Knowing this, don’t take their nonresponse too personally. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You will not have the luxury of a completely controlled environment. There is one element that will prove unmanageable for today and many days to come. This will be a continual source of fun and adventure. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You can only take so much hard work, isolation and solitude before you just want to break out and join the party -- especially if the action is relatively mindless. Tonight brings just the release you need. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You need help. Decide who can help you and why they should. Then build the perfect pitch. Don’t forget to highlight the rewards and benefits that will surely come to any assistant of yours. TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (June 17). It is a talent of yours to expertly work out mutually beneficial arrangements. You’ll bring people together in unexpected ways and create scenarios that only you could. The next six weeks give you more to work with in terms of financial and emotional resources. Family makes you proud in September. Leo and Taurus are your supportive fans. Your lucky numbers are: 9, 12, 42, 39 and 14.

Cul de Sac

ARIES (March 21-April 19). You are difficult to predict, and that is precisely why so many people are watching you now. Even you are not so sure what your next move will be, but it’s certain to be exciting. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Your emotional state will have a profound effect on your social interactions. So before you leave the house, take time to center yourself and slip into a fantastic mood. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You present yourself in such a way that many will want to buy what you are selling. This probably isn’t about moving hard goods. Rather, it’s a certain attitude you exude that people find highly contagious. CANCER (June 22-July 22). Avoid clashes. Be careful about what software you add to your computer, because it could conflict with what is already working quite well. Similarly, be careful about adding new people to your social circle. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You don’t always have to stand out to do well in business, and the same goes for your personal relationships. It takes courage to be ordinary, and you’ll find that you don’t really need extra attention right now. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Being uncomfortable with a circumstance will inspire you to fantasize about an alternate reality. However, avoid escaping to a romantic dream when you could be focused on making your reality better. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Just because you’re in a good mood doesn’t mean your life is without stress. You’ll handle it better than most, though, as you discover a positive way to alleviate the pressures that have built up over the week.

Page 16 — THE BERLIN DAILY SUN, Friday, June 17, 2011

by Abigail Van Buren

GUITARIST IS UNHAPPY DANCING TO HIS BAND MATES’ TUNE

DEAR ABBY: I’m a guitarist in a rock band that has been performing in the San Francisco Bay area for five years. Because my on-again, off-again girlfriend, “Robin,” didn’t get along with my band mates, I found myself often caught in the middle. Her dislike of the band scene distanced me from the other members of the band and resulted in my not hanging out with them like I used to. Mounting pressures from both sides caused my breakup with Robin, someone I cared about and loved deeply. The split resolved the problem with the band, but now they are asking me for reassurance that I won’t date anyone in the future who will have a negative impact on the band. I made a big personal sacrifice for them, and I think it’s insulting and insensitive to demand reassurance that history won’t repeat itself. I have told them I’m ready to move forward with no more obstacles. Abby, please advise. -- DISSONANT CHORD IN THE COMPOSITION DEAR DISSONANT CHORD: You may be a “dissonant chord,” but your band mates’ demand strikes a sour note with me. While a career in music -- particularly if you get lucky and spend a lot of time touring -- is undeniably demanding, your partners in this business should not have the right to dictate your personal life. You gave ‘em an inch, and now they expect a mile. If you’re prepared to have them dictate your life for as long as the band lasts, then keep on strumming and keep your promise. But I predict that at some point you are going to have to draw the line. Have another gig lined up when you do. DEAR ABBY: I’m a gay man in a bad situation. My boyfriend, “Kyle,” is bipolar/schizophrenic. Sometimes he can

be violent. Much of our time together is spent taking care of him. I work; he doesn’t. We are both college students and I believe, regardless of what I have been through, I have a bright future ahead of me. Kyle is verbally and physically abusive at times, and yes, I end up hurt most of those times. I have convinced myself that it’s my fault because I make him mad when he is under stress or he is manic. He breaks up with me every week and then tells me he loves me, then turns around and says he hates me. Abby, all I want to do is love him and help him. I don’t know what he wants or what will make him happy. I need to know if I should stick with Kyle or give up. -- HOPELESSLY DEVOTED IN JERSEY CITY, N.J. DEAR HOPELESSLY DEVOTED: Healthy, loving relationships are based on a relatively even give-and-take between partners. You may want to help Kyle, but you are not qualified to do so. Because you say your situation is a “bad” one, and your boyfriend is verbally abusive and hurts you physically as well as emotionally, I am advising you to find out from a mental health professional why you would subject yourself to the emotional roller coaster ride that you have. If you do, this will happen to you less often in the future. Also, the counselor can help you decide whether this relationship is salvageable. DEAR ABBY: After moving out of your parents’ home, is one expected to knock on the door when visiting, or is it OK to just open the door and walk in? -- HEY MOM, I’M HOME! DEAR “HEY MOM!”: The considerate thing to do would be to knock, which would prevent any embarrassing surprises.

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

Kickboxers hone their skills in Jackson BY LLOYD JONES THE CONWAY DAILY SUN

JACKSON — The last thing you would expect to see in the former Red Fox restaurant in the heart of Jackson Village is a full-fledged boxing gym complete with all the equipment and a ring. But after spending a few minutes inside and talking with former three-time World Champion Kickboxer Dick “The Destroyer” Kimber, this seems like the perfect place. “What good is having a jewel if you don’t show it off,” Kimber said smiling. “This gym is definitely a diamond in the rough.” Kimber, who has lived in Berlin for 13 years, has transformed the former restaurant into a gym and has been training boxers and kickboxers here since January when he created the White Mountain Boxing Club. “I started out at Cranmore training Mike (Mallett) and Paul (Ciamillo) and they suggested doing something up here (in Jackson),” Kimber said during an interview last week. “We put it together and it’s a real unique gym, it works out well. Mike is a good little fighter himself. He’s got a little medical problem with his arm and shoulder at the moment and he has to decide whether he’s going to do surgery or not. Other than that, when all is said an done he’s going to go full force. He’s a good man. We thank him for the opportunity to raise some good fighters.” Kimber, who is in the gym four times a week in Jackson, said he’s officially retired from competition and now wants to share is knowledge with the next generation. “I had a great journey,” he said. “I won the cruiserweight title in Marseilles, France. Of course I was an underdog in most of my fights. This gentleman was 52 wins, two loses and I was 17 wins with 16 knockouts and I knocked him out in the first round. I was pretty excited about that. “Then I won my second world title as a heavyweight at Foxwoods Casino in 1997,” Kimber continued. “I won another heavyweight title in 1998; I had a great journey and now I’m passing the torch.” Kimber loves working with young, up-and-coming fighters. “I love to teach, I really love to train,” he said, smiling. “There’s so

much talent within this area. The problem is we just don’t get that exposure. I come from a hard-core city. I had everyone doubt me that I could go anywhere and I just had to prove them wrong. I’m trying to do this and I love it up here. “We’ve been trying to stay low key but we’re just now trying to get some guys exposed for what they do,” Kimber continued. Casey Methot, a sophomore at Kennett High School, lives in Jackson and has become hooked on kickboxing. He’s fighting in the 160-pound weight class. “I’ve been training almost a year,” he said. “I love fighting, I just love the training, all of it. The hardest part is probably taking a hit. I think my strength is my punching.” “It’s never a good thing to hear that your son is fighting but it’s made such difference for Casey,” Sue Methot, of Jackson, said of her son Casey. “He has a whole new focus and that’s transferred into the classroom. He’s doing better than ever in the classroom.” “He loves it,” added Gary, Methot’s father. “He can’t wait to train; he’s in the best shape of his life thanks to Dick.” Jacob Plourde, a senior at Berlin High, is a silver mittens champion fighting at 150 pounds. “I like how the sport challenges you and that it’s physical,” he said. “My strength is striking because I’ve been in boxing since I was 12. I’ve been in the ring five years. I just started kickboxing and have a few kicks down.” Plourde plans to attend St. Anselm College in Manchester to study criminal justice in the fall. “If I have time in college I’d like to continue this,” he said. Kimber currently has seven fighters in his stable. “We’ve got just a small group at the moment that’s all I want to focus on at this time,” he said. “Gorham police chief PJ Cyr comes down to help spar with the fighters and get prepared. He’s made a great accomplishment winning the Golden Gloves in Vermont; he’s won the New England Golden Gloves; he went to the nationals and was like eighth in the country; and then he turned pro and is 1-0. Then he got the opportunity to see KICKBOXERS page 23

become the chief of police and that’s where his career has taken him. We’re thankful to have him.” “I think the sport encourages a clean lifestyle, a disciplined lifestyle,” Cyr said. “It gives guys aged 12 to 18 years of age something to do after school or after work whatever it may be. It gives an opportunity for guys like Dick Kimber, myself, Mark Santos helps out, to engage with these guys, give a good positive role model for them. For the sport itself you have to be disciplined, you have to understand the basics and once you understand those basics you can go into more advanced techniques of boxing — it’s why they call it the sweet science.” Cyr has been boxing since 1992 when he was in the Air Force in Robbins, Ga.. “I was on the Air Force team and was their light heavyweight champion in ‘94,” he said. “I made it to the Armed Forces Box-Off, but I got stopped in the first round by a guy who turned out to be the No. 2 light heavyweight in the country. (Smiling) Once you get to that level you have to know your basics and advanced techniques otherwise you get stopped in the first round.” Cyr, who turned pro in 2004, credits Kimber with being his best trainer to date. “I came back from the service and I heard that he was in town and he was just about the first call I made,” he said. “I said, ‘Dick Kimber I’ve got to get with you and I want you to train me.’ That was in 2002. He’s a great guy. He’s just got a wealth of knowledge of all facets of fighting because he’s a kickboxer. Out of all of the coaches that I’ve has, even with the Air Force, this is the guy who has pushed me the hardest.”

Corey Noyes, 25, of Silver Lake, is another member of Kimber’s training team and believes the program can be a community asset. “The training that we do provides and will provide, self-discipline, achievement, feeling of self-worth, accomplishment, and the determination that all of our youths and young adults deserve,” he said. “With all of these things combined, I believe that we could very well contribute to the restoration of our area’s youth and young adults.” Methot was scheduled to make his fight debut Saturday when he and Plourde were to have appeared on on a fight card in Burlington, Vt., in a USA versus Canada kickboxing bout. Unfortunately there was a mix-up in fighting styles and the size of gloves that prevented the hometown athletes from participating. “We had been told that it would be American kickboxing with (foot striking) only above the waist,” Kimber said. “Casey stepped in and it was Muay Thai where the use of elbows and knees are allowed, that’s not what we had trained for. Casey had all the confidence in the world, but I stepped in and stopped it. It was ruled a no fight.” With Plourde, it was a matter of agreeing to glove sizes. The Canadians wanted to fight with 12-ounce gloves while the promoter wanted 8 ounce. The dispute could not be settled so Canada withdrew from the bout. “The rules were confused,” Kimber said. “Three bus loads of Canadians left, it was disappointing that Jacob and Casey didn’t get to fight; there will be other fights for them this summer.” Kimber specializes in American Kickboxing, also known as full-contact kickboxing, It’s a combat sport and a style of kickboxing in which

two opponents of similar weight fight each other using full contact strikes with their fists and feet to attack the opponent, while keeping similar rules of English boxing. This includes kicks only above the waist, which Kimber is training his fighters in. “It takes talent to lift your leg above a person’s waist and it makes for a very interesting fight,” he said. “In order to be a great kickboxer you have to be a good boxer. We really key on the boxing ability. I’ve got good golden gloves champions and silver mittens

winners, a good group of competitors. The greatest thing is teaching someone who doesn’t know how to hold their hands and then making them bloom into a champion. We’ve done that and we’ve done it with Jacob Plourde and a few other fighters.” Kimber is planning a women’s kickboxing/self-defense class that will run for six weeks this summer. If anyone is interested, or if anybody would like to help sponsor the fighters in Kimber’s program, they can contact him at 723-2659.
