There’s new job activity at local Employment Security office BY BARBARA TETREAULT THE BERLIN DAILY SUN

BERLIN -- After a flat job market for most of the summer, N.H. Employment Security Berlin Office Manager Mark Belanger said things have picked up this fall. “There’s good activity,” he said. Two job fairs are scheduled next week with two local employers recruiting for about 30 employees. Berlin City Dealerships has scheduled a job fair for Tuesday, Oct. 4 from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. at the Employment Security office at 151 Pleasant Street in Berlin. Belanger said Berlin City Deal-

erships is seeking to hire about 10 people in total for all its dealerships. The company is looking for sales people, delivery drivers, technicians, and reconditioners. The Northern New Hampshire Correctional Facility is holding a job fair on Thursday, Oct. 6, from 8:30 a.m. to noon at the Employment Security office as well. Belanger said the state prison is looking to hire 20 correctional officers and two registered nurses for the Berlin prison. Unlike the federal prison, Belanger said there is no age limit for the state prison. He said applicants for correctional see JOB page 7

Two Berlin boys will hit the woods for the Hunt of a Lifetime this weekend. The youngsters, Cody Beaudette and Joshua Guay, were given their moose hunting permits by Fish and Game Lt. Doug Gralenski (center) at a special ceremony in Lancaster on Thursday. The boys will take to the woods first thing on Saturday morning with their guides, Leo Roberge and Steve Cass, pictured at far left and right respectively, with Beaudette center left and Guay center right. Hunt of a Lifetime is a program that provides hunting opportunities to young people under the age of 21 with life-threatening diseases. Gralenski said that legislation in 2008 allows Fish and Game to award two of these special permits annually, but this program is a community and region-wide effort receiving donations of equipment, firearms and services from Ruger, Thompson Centerfire, Mark Dubreuil Taxidermy, Rut and Strut Taxidermy, White Mountain Chalet, Tall Timbers Lodge, Twin Maple Farms, LeMay’s Butcher Shop, LL Cote, Cabela’s, Coca Cola, and Anheuser-Busch.

‘Bottoms up’ to help the bottom line ATLANTA (NY Times) — Drink up, America. The government needs the money. With cities across the country facing their fifth straight year of declining revenues and states cutting services and laying off workers, raising money from people who enjoy a cocktail is becoming an increasingly attractive option. Since the recession started in earnest in 2008, dozens of states and cities have tinkered with laws that regulate alcohol sales as a way to build up their budgets. Twelve states have raised taxes on alcohol or changed alcohol laws to increase revenue, including Maryland, which in July pushed the sales tax on alcohol to 9 percent, from 6 percent — the first such increase in 38 years and one that is expected to bring in $85 million a year. In November, voters in Atlanta and elsewhere in Georgia will decide whether to repeal colonial-era laws that ban alcohol sales on Sunday. People touring the Jack Daniel’s distillery in Lynchburg, Tenn., may finally be able to have a sip now that the state has loosened laws to allow tastings as part of a package of changes intended to attract more alcohol-related business to the state.

Even if Europe averts crisis, growth may lag for years

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

(NY Times) — It has happened time and again in recent months as Europe’s debt crisis has played out. Stocks stage a remarkably strong comeback on expectations that a solution has been found. Then they quickly resume their decline as hopes dissipate, leaving investors puzzled and frazzled. The problem, say close watchers of both the subprime financial crisis in 2008 and the European government debt crisis today, is that many investors think there

is a quick and easy fix, if only government officials can come to an agreement and act decisively. In reality, one might not exist. A best case in Europe is a bailout of troubled governments and their banks that keeps the financial system from experiencing a major shock and sending economies worldwide into recession. But a bailout doesn’t mean wiping out the huge debts that have taken years to accumulate — just as bailing out Ameri-

can banks in 2008 didn’t mean wiping out the huge amount of subprime debt that homeowners had borrowed but couldn’t repay. The problem — too much debt — could take many years to ease. ”Everybody has been living beyond their means for nearly the last decade, so it is an adjustment that will be painful and long, and it will test the resilience of societies socially and politically,” said Nicolas Véron, a senior fellow at Bruegel, a research organization in Brussels.

House approves stopgap spending bill

WASHINGTON (NY Times) — The House on Thursday gave quick approval to a stopgap spending bill that will finance the government for the first four days of October, until lawmakers can return and vote on a more ambitious seven-week spending bill. The stopgap bill, passed Monday by the Senate, goes now to President Obama, who is expected to sign it. The House action came in a brief session attended by just a few lawmakers. Both houses

of Congress are in recess, holding only pro forma sessions like the one on Thursday. A partisan fight over the stopgap spending bill had raised the possibility that the government might have to shut down many of its operations starting on Saturday, the first day of the new fiscal year. The fight, like so many on Capitol Hill this year, involved a dispute over money, as Republicans and Democrats disagreed over how to pay for assistance to victims of natural disasters like hurricanes, floods, tornadoes and wildfires.

Pro-Assad protest temporarily traps U.S. diplomat

BEIRUT, Lebanon (NY Times) — Dozens of pro-government Syrians attempted to assault an American diplomatic delegation that included the ambassador on Thursday, striking their motorcade as they traveled to a meeting with an opposition figure in Damascus and then trying to break into an office where the meeting was held, essentially trapping the participants inside for 90 minutes. The United States protested the episode and suggested that the attackers had been deliberately allowed to harass the diplomatic delegation by Syrian security forces, who arrived belatedly to provide safe passage for the Americans to leave. The ambassador, Robert S. Ford, an outspoken critic of Syria’s President, Bashar al-Assad, was reported safe but some vehicles in his motorcade were damaged. “We condemn this unwarranted attack in the strongest possible terms,” Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton said in a statement. “Ambassador Ford and his aides were conducting normal embassy business and this attempt to intimidate our diplomats through violence is wholly unjustified.”

UNH could cut jobs to deal with deficits BY CLYNTON NAMUO THE UNION LEADER

DURHAM — The University of New Hampshire is expected to cut more jobs as a result of major budget deficits projected for the next two fiscal years, officials said yesterday. UNH is facing a $13 million deficit next fiscal year and a $21 million shortfall the year after that, according to a letter President Mark Huddleston issued yesterday. The current fiscal year that began in July is running a $2.2 million deficit. “These numbers could be exacerbated further if we do not realize our targets for the separation incentive program (also known as buyouts), for which the remaining application deadlines fall at the start of November and January,” Huddleston wrote

in a public letter released Wednesday. “They also assume level state funding, which is uncertain.” The shortfalls are largely the result of a $32.5 million cut in state funding during the last Legislature, Huddleston said. That reduction was dealt with by freezing wages and hiring, slicing benefits, cutting expenses, raising in-state tuition and offering buyouts to long-time employees, but those initiatives proved to be just stopgap measures. To deal with the future budget holes, more will have to be done, including “staff reductions,” said David Proulx, the associate vice president for finance. “We do have to make major expense reductions,” he said yesterday. “We are looking at vertical cuts. We don’t know what those are yet, but there are areas that we do have to focus on.”

State facing ‘silver tsunami’ of senior citizen residents BY TOM FAHEY THE UNION LEADER

CONCORD — New Hampshire is facing what a Concord think tank calls a “silver tsunami” of residents over age 65 in less than 20 years. The New Hampshire Center for Public Policy Studies said the age factor will create increasing pressure on health care costs as hospitals look to the private sector to make up for low payments they get from Medicare and Medicaid. Steve Norton, the center’s executive director, said roughly one-third of the state’s population will be over 65 by 2030. That age group now makes up 14 percent of the state’s population. The shift in aging will come through a combination of aging baby boomers born through the early 1960s, current

low birth rates and slowing migration of young families to the state. “We can get ahead of the aging trend with right policies,” Norton said. “We are 10 years away from it, we’re in our economic prime, now is the time to be thinking about it.” Norton said school budgets will feel pressure, too, as districts see populations edge downward but not so deeply to allow big cuts in services. Averages costs per pupil will rise more rapidly if current trends continue, he said. One step the state can take now is to shift resources into developing a more skilled workforce. Norton said the state should invest in what he called “human capital,” to help grow business and attract new workers. Examining the state’s education and transportation systems are good places to start, he said.

The First Execution

The year is 1630. The date is 30 September. The place is Plymouth Colony. The event is the first recorded execution of a duly tried and convicted murderer in the still young and struggling to survive English colonies in America. The man soon to be hanged by the neck until dead is John Billington (c.15801630). According to the all-too-few existing records of his life, Billington was hardly a model citizen of the Pilgrim colony of Plymouth. He was not a member of the Brownist group seeking religious freedom in the New World that made up part of the 102-passengers that sailed on the “Mayflower” ten years earlier. He and his family, a wife and two sons, had been a part of the other half of the passenger list that had been sent by the London Company, chartered by the King of England to establish a profitable colony in the resourcesrich New World. From the start, there had been bad blood between the two groups, and the Billingtons were seen as being among the main troublemakers. A near mutiny would be narrowly averted during the Atlantic crossing, and, although he denied being a part of it, Billington was seen as one of the instigators. During the voyage, one of Billington’s sons had set off a firearm in one of the cabins, luckily missing a partly-filled keg of black powder that could have blown the entire ship apart. Although he would sign the Mayflower Compact, Billington had been among those who had wanted the London Company to go its own way, once it became clear that the ship would not land anywhere near its intended destination. Only more reasonable heads had kept the entire company together, a necessity, if they were to survive the fast-closing winter in a strange new place.

According to “Of Plymouth Plantation 1620-1647” written by William Bradford, who governed the colony during those first years of its existence, the Billingtons were often in trouble with authorities. “He and some of his had been often punished for miscarriages before, being one of the profanest families amongst them; they came from London, and I know not by what friends shuffled into their company.” In a letter written to a friend in 1625, Bradford would write of Billington, “Billington still rails against you, and threatens to arrest you, I know not wherefore; he is a knave and so will live and die.” Clearly, Bradford did not have much personal regard for John Billington, and one can only wish that there were more contemporary commentary available. In 1630, the now 50-year old Billington committed the act that would mark him as the first man to be executed for murder in the English colonies. John Newcomen was among those who came to Plymouth Colony in the years following the 1620 settlement. For some reason not explained in the record, he and John Billington had had a quarrel. Bad blood had evidently continued between them, and Billington had ended the feud by shooting and fatally wounding his young enemy. Bradford’s brief account of the trial, as found in records kept in the Pilgrim Hall Museum, in Plymouth, Massachusetts, says that all due diligence was given the matter. Billington “was arraigned, and both by grand and petty jury found guilty of wilful murder, by plain and notorious evidence. And was for the same accordingly executed.” And so, on 30 September 1630, John Billington became the first man to be tried and executed for murder by his fellow citizens in the young English colonies of America.

BPD gets public feedback on sobriety checkpoints BY MELISSA GRIMA THE BERLIN DAILY SUN

BERLIN — Feedback is in on how the public received the three sobriety checkpoints held by the Berlin Police over the summer. Among those who responded, the single most prevalent comment was that the checkpoints would be more effective if they were not advertised. “The only thing that I can think would inhibit an effective checkpoint is the public news announcement that advertises which week the checkpoint will be,” wrote one respondent. “An unannounced check might be more practical and effective.” According to Police Chief Peter Morency, the announcements are required by law, so police have to do their best to work within the system. “I think it was successful,” said Lt. Dan Buteau, who compiled the statistics on the checkpoints. “It’s more of an awareness thing.” The sobriety checkpoints, a system of randomly screening motorists for possible impairment, were held during late night hours on Glen Avenue on predetermined weekends over the course of the summer and each motorist stopped was given a survey to return at their convenience to the police department. In all, 561 vehicles were stopped, and just under 10 percent — an even 50 — of those returned their survey to the police. Buteau said that in the course of the checkpoints two arrests were made, one for a drug offense and one for operating after revocation or suspension. Three traffic summons were also issued, as well as numerous warnings. Several sobriety tests were also administered, he said. Although the checkpoint itself did not yield any DWI arrests, a roaming patrol on alternate routes in and out of Berlin during the one of the checkpoints did result in one DWI arrest, Morency told members of the Police Commission earlier this month. Survey respondents were quick to point out that alternate routes were AMC from page 5

available and word about the checkpoint travels fast in a digital age. “The location of the checkpoint is a good location. But easy to avoid,” one respondent wrote. “I got a text/ warning me about the checkpoint. It would be more effective in a place that could not be avoided.” “To be honest people warn others and they take other routes,” wrote another. Those who filled out and returned the survey were fairly evenly split between genders, with 23 women and 26 men responding (one survey did not indicate gender or age). The median age of the respondents was 48. Overwhelmingly the group said that they felt the checkpoints were an effective deterrent to those who would drive unimpaired, with 37 responding yes, 12-no, and 1 not sure. All but one said they believed the checkpoint increases the risk of those driving impaired being caught. There was no difference of opinion on support for the program with all 50 indicating approval of the checkpoint as an enforcement tool and none of the respondents said the checkpoint caused any significant delay in their travel. In addition to comments about notices for the patrols, respondents also appreciated the professionalism of the officers in their missives and offered suggestions for improvement. Whether providing just a couple of words or a few sentences of open comment, 27 of the 50 took time to offer their thoughts. “All officers involved were polite and professional. Very well done, thank you for all you do.” “Sobriety checkpoints should not be advertised, placed at random at all times of day and night.” “Asking for one document only should be sufficient, in my case my license is on me, but would have to dig to find registrations.” “I feel the sobriety checkpoints are a wonderful idea and should be held more often and by surrounding towns.” in winter for the Eastern Mountain Sports Climbing School, the International Mountain Climbing School, and New England Hiking Holidays.

Northern Human Services as a community integrator. He was welcomed by the selectmen and Dave Graham remarked that he believed a human service background was a very good foundation for police work. Benjamin is slated to attend the police academy in January. An additional change at the police department comes in the form of a promotion. Sgt. Jennifer Lemoine was promoted on Aug. 15 to the rank of lieutenant. Cyr explained that the move had been anticipated in the budgeting process, based on Lemoine’s performance. He added that her current roles and responsibilities are more in line with a lieutenant’s job description. Lemoine is the department’s prosecutor and is in charge of all arrest reports as well as misdemeanor and felony complaints. She also represents the department and town on the board of directors of the Child Advocacy Center of Coos County. Lemoine also received congratulations from the board and Town Manager Robin Frost. With personnel out of the way, Cyr moved on to crime statistics he compiled from the department’s computers. Using year to date numbers for 2009, 2010, and 2011, he offered up a report comparing the rates of violation, misdemeanor and felony offenses across the three years calling it a “snapshot of the bulk of what we do.” According to Cyr, violation level offenses — which earn the offender a summons rather than an arrest — have been fairly steady with a decrease of just 5%, between last year and this year. Violations in 2009 were

79, dropped one to 78 in 2010 and fell by 4 to 74 this year. The town has seen a consistent rise in misdemeanors over the three years, he stated, going from 163 in 2009, to 182 in 2010 and jumping 22% to 223 so far in 2011. In response to selectman Paul Robitaille’s query to what the increase might be attributed, Cyr said that thefts and simple assaults — particularly domestic violence related — were up. He added that drug offenses were up from 15 last year to 22 this year, and thefts had doubled from 6 to 12. “It wouldn’t be too much to say the economic condition...had something to do with that,” Cyr said. He added that the number of low income housing opportunities in town may correlate to increased crime rates. After a lull in felony offenses last year, the town has seen that number climb back up to near 2009 rates. In 2009 the department recorded 53 felonies. That number dropped to 19 for the same time period last year, but so far this year is back up at 47. Cyr explained that prescription medication crimes accounted for much of this category. He also noted there have been 7 burglaries to date this year, compared to 2 in 2010. Cyr also shared the statistics on motor vehicle activity, which saw a dip last year, but this year has climbed back up. In 2009, Gorham Police made 1,872 stops. That figured went down to 1,445 in 2010 and is at 1,773 for 2011. He said warnings account for 86% of the outcome of of 2011’s stops, while 13% resulted in summons and 1% of the stops (18) resulted in DWI arrests. Cyr called this statistical distribution “pretty consistent” over the years.

officer positions must go through an interviewing process and be able to pass a physical test. The jobs are full-time with good benefits and shift differential. “There’s no age limitation so it’s a good chance for anyone to get in as a correctional officer,” Belanger said. A new company in Berlin, Crackerjax Marketing, is advertising to hire a number of people for the business-to-business and web design business. In addition, area ski resorts are all hosting job fairs in October to hire for their operations. Wildcat is holding its job fair on Saturday, Oct. 15, from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the main Base Lodge, Attitash has one the same day from 9 a.m. to noon at the Attitash Base Lodge, while Bretton Woods/Mount Washington Resort is hosting one on Sunday, Oct. 6, from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the Bretton Woods Base Lodge. The Mt. Washington Valley Job and Resource Fair is scheduled for Wednesday, Oct. 19 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at Granite State College in Conway. Belanger said it is exciting to see the new activity after a quiet summer. He said early this summer his office assisted with hiring over 60 temporary workers for SteelElements for a special order. He said SteelElements is trying to gain orders to retain as many of the workers as possible. The local Employment Security office in June also assisted two Maine companies, Sargent Cor-

poration and Maine Drilling and Blasting, with hiring for the Granite Reliable Power wind farm. After that early summer activity, Belanger said employment opportunities were limited to random companies seeking to hire a person to fill a particular need. One big construction project getting underway in Berlin is the Burgess BioPower biomass plant. At this point, Belanger said he does not know how hiring for the plant will be handled. Employment Security has initiated a new Return to Work Initiative for employers. Part of a larger initiative to help workers by Gov. Lynch, the Return to Work program allows eligible people collecting unemployment to receive up to six weeks of part-time on-thejob training. The employer does not pay the trainee and the state covers the cost of worker’s compensation. The trainee continues to collect unemployment insurance payments while gaining some training. While there is no promise of employment at the company, there must be a full-time position open in the company for it to take part in the initiative. Belanger said the initiative allows employers to try out prospective employees at no risk since the state covers the worker’s compensation. The trainee gets the opportunity to gain some skills and perhaps land a job. More information on the Return to Work Initiative or the job fairs is available by calling NHES office in Berlin at 752-5500.

Ed Fenn students hike to Tuckerman Ravine with AMC

PINKHAM NOTCH -- The fourthgrade class from Ed Fenn Elementary School in Gorham hiked up to the Hermit Lake Shelters in Tuckerman Ravine Sept. 22, with the Appalachian Mountain Club (AMC). The hike, part of the AMC’s North Country Outreach program, started and returned to the Pinkham Notch Visitor Center. The day began with a quick lesson on hiking safety and a review of what outdoor clothing the students should bring with them on a full day hike in the White Mountains. As the students hiked along the Tuckerman Ravine Trail in the White Mountain National Forest, they stopped occasionally to play fun games with their hiking group. When they reached the Hermit Lake Shelters, they explored the area and enjoyed the views up into the ravine. Through the North Country Outreach program, AMC is able to work with Ed Fenn students to encourage them to build connections with the spectacular landscape in which they live and to increase their skills and knowledge needed to enjoy and understand the natural environment of the region. Offered by AMC

for free or reduced-cost to all schools in Coos County, programs can be customized for each group, including school classes and clubs, after-school programs, scouting groups and other youth organizations and, can be tailored to augment classroom learning or meet state frameworks. Founded in 1876, the Appalachian Mountain Club is America’s oldest conservation and recreation organization. With more than 100,000 members, advocates, and supporters in the Northeast and beyond, the nonprofit AMC promotes the protection, enjoyment, and understanding of the mountains, forests, waters, and trails of the Appalachian region. The AMC supports natural resource conservation while encouraging responsible recreation, based on the philosophy that successful, long-term conservation depends upon first-hand enjoyment of the natural environment.

Three additional NH banks receive $39.2 million to help small businesses access capital, creat new jobs WASHINGTON – Today, the U.S. Department of the Treasury announced that three additional New Hampshire community banks received a total of $39.2 million as part of the final wave of funding provided through the Small Business Lending Fund (SBLF). The SBLF, which was established as part of the Small Business Jobs Act that President Obama signed into law, encourages community banks to increase their lending to small businesses, helping those companies expand their operations and create new jobs. The New Hampshire community banks receiving funding as part of today’s announcement include the following. Northway Financial, Inc. (Berlin, NH) -- $23.6 million; First Colebrook Bancorp, Inc. (Colebrook, NH) -- $8.6 million; Guaranty Bancorp, Inc. (Woodsville, NH) -- $7.0 million. Overall, including today’s announcement, six New Hampshire community banks received a total of $86.7 million in SBLF funding. For a full list of New Hampshire community banks that received SBLF funding, please visit link for the most recent SBLF transaction report. “Billions of dollars in SBLF funds are now being put to use in communities all across the nation, spurring small business growth and job creation,” said Deputy Secretary of the Treasury Neal S. Wolin. “These investments, which will help propel lending

by Main Street banks, are good for our economy and good for America’s small businesses.” Small businesses play a critical role in the U.S. economy and are central to growth and job creation. Small businesses employ roughly one-half of all Americans and account for about 60 percent of gross job creation. But small business owners faced disproportionate challenges in the aftermath of the recession and credit crisis, including difficulty accessing capital. The SBLF helps small businesses meet this challenge by providing capital to community banks that hold under $10 billion in assets. The dividend rate a community bank pays on SBLF funding is reduced as that bank increases its lending to small businesses – providing a strong incentive for new lending to small businesses so they can expand and create jobs. For more details on the SBLF program, please visit, link. The SBLF is one part of the Obama Administration’s comprehensive agenda to help small businesses access the capital they need to invest and hire. The State Small Business Credit Initiative (SSBCI), which is also a key part of the Small Business Jobs Act, allocates $1.5 billion to new and existing state programs that will leverage private financing to spur $15 billion in new lending to small businesses and small manufacturers. The Obama Administration has also supported 17 direct tax breaks

that provide tax relief of more than $50 billion for small businesses. These tax breaks were designed to support job creation and retention, entrepreneurship, investment, and growth. The Administration has also worked with Congress to extend

and expand existing Small Business Administration loan programs that helped put more than $42 billion in the hands of small businesses and deliver other important benefits to help small businesses expand and hire.

Strengthening the NC Educational Alliance through inter-district collaboration GORHAM -- North Country Education Services, a regional educational service provider located in Gorham, NH has been awarded $66,000 grant by the Neil and Louise Tillotson Fund of the NH Charitable Foundation to establish a collaborative working environment for North Country educational and community leaders.

K&S Fitness going strong BERLIN -- K&S Fitness has now been open for nine months and business continues to get better. Owners Kim Poulin and Sue Martin started offering fitness classes in Berlin because of the increased demand for their services, and the pair now offers classes five days a week at their Maynesboro Street Studio. Together they started K&S Fitness classes at Brown School. The original plan was to offer two nights of fitness per week, but they were surprised to learn that they had an abundance of people and were immediately up to four classes a week. They soon realized Brown School was too small and they needed a new place. Martin owns a building on Maynesboro Street and, with the help of their husbands, they soon turned the second floor of the building into a large fitness/dance studio. Both women are AFAA Certified (Internationally recognized Aerobics & Fitness Association of America) for group exercise. Martin, Poulin, and Stephanie Lilly also hold valid Zumba Licenses. Poulin has nearly 10 years of instructing experience and Martin has five years. Kim was formerly instructing at the Berlin Rec. Center, as well as TNT, Fit 2 Be and Royalty Athletic Club. Sue was formerly an instructor at the Royalty Athletic Club. Their equipment includes: gliding discs, large exercise balls, bender balls, body bars, a large variety of free weights, plus lots more. Kim and Sue keep their facility super clean and they’ve invested in “the best” sound system in northern New Hampshire, it has four 1000 watt speakers. They also have the latest tunes to get you moving. K&S Fitness offers a variety of fitness classes strictly for women. Zumba is a fat burning fitness program inspired by dance which combines a variety of Latin and international rhythms in routines that are fun and easy to follow. Pilates/Yoga is a series of exercises aimed at building muscle strength, correcting posture and increasing flexibility using your own body weight. Yoga is a form of

Kim Poulin and Sue Martin

exercise that uses slow movements, stretching and holding poses. It is good for increasing flexibility and balance. Body sculpting is designed to strengthen and tone all different muscle groups head to toe. They also offer cardio kickboxing which is a low impact, high intensity workout. K&S Fitness also changes their routines from one class to another to keep things fresh. On Thursday, October 20, from 7:45 to 9 p.m. K&S Fitness will be offering a “Club Zumba” night with disco lights and black lights for a “dance club” atmosphere. This night will have a Halloween theme and costumes are suggested. The cost to attend will be $8 and prizes will be awarded. They will continue with a “Club Zumba” night once a month on Thursday’s thereafter through the winter. K&S Fitness future plans are to continue investing in equipment including BOSU Balls, which are inflated rubber hemispheres attached to a rigid platform and are often used for balance training. Martin is also an AFAA certified personal trainer. AFAA is hosting a personal training certification in May at K&S Fitness. It’s a three day workshop held on Friday, Saturday and Sunday. This is open to the public and includes a practical and written exam at the end of the workshop. If you pass, you will obtain a personal training certification. K&S Fitness offers early morning classes at 5:30-6:30 a.m. Tuesday, see K & S page 18

RE/MAX Northern Edge Realty recently donated another $500 to the Family Resource Center to support the professional training needs of the staff of Project Youth, the FRC’s afterschool program. Each year Project Youth serves over 200 Berlin-Gorham K-8 students with homework support programs. Retired Judge James E. Michalik, FRC’s executive director, accepts the check from Steve Grone and the real estate associates at RE/MAX.

The 13th Annual Operation School Supplies was a great success with the generous donations from Re-Max Northern Edge Realty, Coos County Family Health Services, St. Vincent’s de Paul, Good Shepherd and Family Parishes. With these donations the program provided over 200 children with the necessary supplies to have a successful start to the 2011 school year.

DAILY CROSSWORD TRIBUNE MEDIA SERVICES

by Lynn Johnston

DILBERT

by Scott Adams

By Holiday Mathis SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). This day will feel like a whole week because its intensity is so turned up. You’ll pack twice as many people and activities into the space of 24 hours, so the day will be broken up into short bursts of your attention. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Life will likely improve later, and yet it would be a shame to waste the moment anticipating better days when you could be engaged in the perfectly lovely circumstance happening right now. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). It will help you to understand your rights and powers. For instance, without the support of customers, a business will fail. As a paying customer, you have certain rights that you should know and defend. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Each person projects his or her own story onto the situation at hand. Therefore, you can safely assume that however people are reacting to you, it is not personal. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You sometimes assume that what you know is common knowledge, but it really isn’t. That is why it’s important that you teach the people around you, especially if those people happen to be your children. TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Sept. 30). You’ll fix a less than ideal part of your life, and your birthday is like the shot that starts the race. Pace yourself, though -- the journey will be long, satisfying and productive provided you stay on course. Sweet nothings in your ear in October develop into life-changing decisions and relationships. Sagittarius and Virgo people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 49, 2, 14, 33 and 18.

Get Fuzzy

ARIES (March 21-April 19). Winning begets winning. Regardless of your starting position, you can create an excellent end result if you stay focused on what’s going right instead of on what’s going wrong. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You don’t have to push yourself to share with others, because your contributions flow effortlessly from you. It brings you such great pleasure to give that you are becoming well known for your generosity. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Don’t forget about that whim you had last week. It is still a good idea, and it is worth investigating further, if not following through to the exciting end. CANCER (June 22-July 22). You will do your part to protect, preserve, restore and manage your household. If everyone takes on as much responsibility as you do, your home life will be in tiptop shape. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You’ll enjoy your time with loved ones. You’ve been rushing around so much that you may feel that you haven’t really seen them. Today’s slower pace will give you a chance to openly gaze in appreciation. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Today your tidbits come in the form of information and entertainment and won’t cost you much money to pick up and share. You are constantly combing the scene for something your loved ones would like. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Love isn’t going to sneak into your heart and surprise you, and you won’t suddenly discover love. Love is a state that you will co-create with another person. An interesting development happens in a relationship.

SECOND CHANCE AT ROMANCE IS FRAUGHT WITH CONSEQUENCES

DEAR ABBY: I’m a 50-year-old female, married 26 years, with three grown children. When I was 16, I dated a guy, “Oliver,” I cared for very much. We got along, never argued and were very close. The attachment we had I have never experienced since. Months after we broke up, my mom told me that because we were of different races, she had called Oliver’s parents and told them to keep him away from me because we were getting too close. We both moved on, but through the years I have thought of him often. Sixteen months ago, I found him online. He lives a half-hour away, has two teenagers and is unhappy in his marriage. We spoke on the phone or online for a year. Over the last few months we have been meeting at a nearby park. Our connection is still there. We are soul mates and no longer want to be without each other. And no, we have NOT had sex. My husband has been good to me. I love him, but I’m not “in love” with him. I am torn between staying with my husband to honor the commitment to my family, or following my heart with Oliver. I’m in love with him and don’t want to lose him a second time. -- ANOTHER CHANCE IN CALIFORNIA DEAR CHANCE: You say you’re torn between your commitment to your family or following your heart. But what about Oliver’s commitment to HIS family? Although your children are grown, his aren’t. They still need a father at home. If the feelings you have carried in your heart all these years for Oliver are more than a fantasy, they won’t wither if

you postpone acting on your feelings. Are you strong enough to do that? Whether you’re up to the challenge is something only the two of you can decide. DEAR ABBY: I have a close friend, “Lindy,” who is dying from liver cancer. She could no longer eat or drink even before the chemo was started, and she sleeps most of the time. The chemo has done nothing more for her than make her lose her hair. Lindy is adamant that she’ll beat the cancer. To that end, she wants nothing “negative” passed on to outsiders, including her relatives who live eight hours away. She has no family here except her boyfriend, whom she won’t allow to talk to her doctor. He refuses to go against her wishes. I am torn between being loyal to my friend’s belief that she’ll get better, or notifying her family about how sick she really is so they can visit her before she passes. If they come, Lindy will be furious (if she’s still coherent). But if they don’t have the opportunity, it will be unfair to them. My heart tells me to call Lindy’s family and tell them to consider a visit sooner rather than later. What do you think? -- CAUGHT IN THE MIDDLE DEAR IN THE MIDDLE: I think that if Lindy were as close to her family as you imagine, they would have some inkling that she’s ill. That you are aware of her illness shows how much she trusts you and cares for you. The people who are most important to her know about her condition, so please respect her wishes.

Local officials comment on DOT Ten Year Plan BY BARBARA TETREAULT THE BERLIN DAILY SUN

BERLIN -- City officials urged state officials to keep the Route 110 bypass project on schedule as the Department of Transportation’s Ten Year Transportation Improvement Plan moves through the hearing process. Local officials also expressed support for two projects that have been moved off the Ten Year Plan to a deferred list the Conway bypass and reconstruction of Route 2 in Jefferson and Randolph. The Governor’s Advisory Commission on Intermodal Transportation held its final North Country hearing on the 2013-2022 draft Ten Year Plan Monday night following the city council work session. The commission, which consists of the five Executive Councilors and the Commissioner of the Department of Transportation, is holding hearings on the plan across the state. North Country Executive Councilor Raymond Burton held 13 hearings across District I. Burton said after the hearings conclude in late October the full committee will get together and make final recommendations to the DOT draft plan. Those recommendations will go to Gov. Lynch by Dec. 15. Lynch must then recommend a Ten Year Plan to the legislature in January for passage by the end of the legislative session in June. DOT Director of Project Development William Cass explained that the state is projecting a 30 percent cut in federal aid or about $100 million annually. The department’s priorities will remain maintaining and preserving the state highway system plus address-

ing the red list bridges. Continuing the Interstate 93 reconstruction is also a priority. Cass described the Ten Year Plan as a realistic document and said there are some very real funding challenges facing the plan. He said the plan is very much a work in progress. State Senator John Gallus, (D-Berlin) said roads and bridges are very important to the North Country. He asked the committee not to neglect the state’s northern region. City Councilor Lucie Remillard and Mayor Paul Grenier both spoke about the important of the second phase of the Route 110 bypass. Property acquisition is underway with construction scheduled to start next year. Grenier said he hopes the project will stay on track. Federal money for the project is earmarked. City Councilor Michael Rozek made a plea for Route 2, citing its importance as an east-west corridor. Rozek noted that the state of Maine has made a major investment in widening and reconstructing Route 2 in Bethel. City Councilor Tom McCue made a similar plea for continuing the Conway bypass which is the region’s major route to the Seacoast region. He said the area does not have alternate means of transportation. McCue noted Tropical Storm Irene pointed out the lack of additional routes. Burton said it would be nice if the state could do all the projects on the deferred list within the Ten Year Plan. But given the fiscal constraints, he said the state has try and address the worst places.
